Inspector Nie Dayong of the O-Ji anti-gang unit gave CID a hand, claiming that they would not interfere with each other's business.
As a result, CID B team caught one after another, one after another, and directly caught all the dealers in the chain from big to small.
Not only did they help O-Ji to sort out the upper and lower line relationships in this branch chain, they also sent them all to the CID interrogation room, and after the interrogation, they smiled and asked O-Ji to accept them - the B team detectives even saved the detention procedures, and the rest was O-Ji's business. O-Ji even said thank you twice after accepting these people.
Today, Nie Dayong came to take away Yin Yang Head. When his men put a hood over Yin Yang Head's head and escorted him to the car, he turned to Fang Zhenyue and said, "Thank you."
Fang Zhenyue nodded and smiled reservedly, "You're welcome, Nie Sir. It's just a coincidence."
"..." Nie Dayong laughed awkwardly and left in a hurry.
It's so annoying, CID is so annoying.
Seeing Nie Dayong and a group of O-Triad detectives driving away, Liu Jiaming smiled and put his arm around Gary's shoulder, then turned to Fang Zhenyue and said,
"Brother Yue, you didn't see Eleven's look yesterday. He was smiling and doing a great job, leaving Inspector Nie speechless. Haha, so impressive."
Uncle Jiu chewed the stick in his mouth, spat out some sawdust, and poked his teeth with the stick. Then he turned around and followed everyone back to the B Group office, chatting with Fang Zhenyue as they walked,
"It feels quite subtle."
"What do you mean?" Fang Zhenyue raised his eyebrows, thinking that Uncle Jiu had a new idea about the case.
"It's just... we are all men in the room, standing behind Eleven, letting her take the responsibilities, letting her negotiate with the Organized Crime and Triads, appeasing the inspectors of Organized Crime and Triads, not letting others lead us by the nose, and ensuring that our work is not affected... ah, I feel complicated." Uncle Jiu smacked the stick in his mouth and murmured:
"Strange happiness, I have never experienced it before... or... it reminds me of standing behind my mother when I was a child. Haha, but look at Eleven, a tall and thin young girl."
"Delicate but not soft." Fang Zhenyue said.
"She is the kind of mother who will not beat or scold me with a stick, but will protect me and give me advice." Liu Jiaming smiled.
"Strong but not domineering." Fang Zhenyue said again.
"Brother Yue, you had a good vision back then. Before we noticed the shining point of Eleven, you started to think about bringing her to Group B." Uncle Jiu took out a small wooden stick, wiped the corner of his mouth, and smiled at Fang Zhenyue.
"Of course, Brother Yue has a good vision, so he chose us, haha." Liu Jiaming immediately took the opportunity to climb. "
So, if you want to be promoted, then be promoted. We all admire Eleven. Eleven can also take good care of Group B. As for you, you have a bright future. You may become a chief superintendent, a commissioner, or something like that in the future, haha. Don't worry about us." Uncle Jiu suddenly slowed down his pace. He raised his head and smiled at Fang Zhenyue. At this moment, his eyes softened and had more kindness of an elder.
"Yes, Brother Yue, it doesn't matter if there is no afternoon tea. We should also lose weight." Liu Jiaming patted his belly and followed suit.
Fang Zhenyue extended his arms and patted Uncle Jiu on his left, and Liu Jiaming on his right. He smiled, but he didn't say much. But when he looked up, the sunlight reflected in his eyes, and when he squinted slightly, his eyebrows and eyes also looked soft.
...
...
After sending away the idiots in the subcontracting chain, the B team agents brought in the big wronged rich man Zhou Xinhui for questioning.
Boss Zhou didn't say a word the whole time, just smiled and waited for his legal team.
Fang Zhenyue sat in a row with Boss Zhou for more than half an hour. After the other party's legal team arrived, Fang Zhenyue handed over the work of connecting with Boss Zhou and his legal team to Qiu Susan.
When leaving the interrogation room, Fang Zhenyue turned around and said to Zhou Xinhui: "Even if it was an attempted murder, with the identification of the big bosses, it is enough to put you in jail. Let's see whether your legal team is stronger or the laws in Hong Kong are stronger."
Zhou Xinhui looked up at Fang Zhenyue. Although he still maintained a smile, there was more anger and hatred in his eyes.
He knew Fang Zhenyue. He was the youngest son of the gem king. Although he was just a second-generation rich man who lived off his father's shadow, his circle was much higher than that of him, a first-generation rich man who fought hard. He has
always adhered to the wolf-like concept that as long as you have money, you can have everything, but in the end he was not stronger than this person who was born with a silver spoon in his mouth.
But they just take the money and property for granted, and come to be detectives.
And he, who has worked so hard to get to where he is now and thinks he is the wolf king, has not even touched the edge of the property that these rich
second-generations don't care about. "Sir Fang, why do you have to pretend to be so righteous? Isn't there a time when your father, Mr. Fang, did not resort to any means in his history of making a fortune?" Zhou Xinhui, who had been silent all the time, suddenly spoke.
Fang Zhenyue stood at the door, turned his head and looked directly at Zhou Xinhui, but did not answer.
"Of course, I won't do those illegal things. But have you asked your father if he has done anything against his conscience?" Zhou Xinhui raised his chin lightly.
Fang Zhenyue's eyes shot over like cold lightning, stared at Zhou Xinhui for a few seconds, and suddenly pursed his lips and smiled.
This small expression seemed to contain infinite contempt. He still did not say anything, but turned around and left without looking back, leaving Zhou Xinhui alone in the small interrogation room.
For a proud person, ignoring is far more insulting than beating or scolding.
Zhou Xinhui was extremely furious, and he pounded his fists on the table. He sat alone waiting for the lawyers to handle the follow-up matters. Fang Zhenyue was so angry that his chest hurt and he could not calm down for a long time.
…
After walking out of the interrogation room, Fang Zhenyue stood at the window of the interrogation room and looked inside.
Jiayi stood beside him and asked softly, "Brother Yue, his family is so wealthy, can we really send him to jail for a year or two?"
"He thinks he can do whatever he wants with money, but he doesn't know how dark this society is. Didn't Big Head and Ponytail have Zhou Xinhui in circles? What's the use of having money?
"The righteous will have many supporters, while the unrighteous will have few. The society will always teach him this truth."
Fang Zhenyue patted Jiayi on the head, turned and walked towards the office of Team B, saying as he walked:
"This clue ends here, let's look for other directions."
"Yes, sir."
...
...
The subcontracting line was concluded, and after helping O remember all the cockroaches and poisonous insects along the way, Team B erased part of the whiteboard and started the case again.
Zhao Dongsheng has been missing for such a long time, and no one has called to blackmail him, and no body has been found. A person who has lost too much blood has disappeared without a trace. Although there is still a piece of paper missing to make a legal death judgment, it is basically certain in Group B that Zhao Dongsheng is dead.
Let's stop for a moment and go back to dig deeper into the emotional conflict line -
the situation of the deceased's lover, the rising star Gu Xiaolan. Go back
and dig deeper into the situation of the deceased's wife, the painter Chen Tingting.
Screen the deceased's other lovers and women with whom he had close contacts again.
In Hong Kong at this time, being rich is really amazing.
Zhao Dongsheng is described by Mrs. Zhao as a workaholic, but this guy can take a break from his busy schedule and date nearly 10 girlfriends at the same time.
Some are "concubines" who buy houses and bags for him, some are "new lovers" who are just for stimulation, and some are beauties who can be flirted with and sleep with if they can, or show off their masculine charm if they can't sleep with them.
When the names of these women were recorded on the whiteboard, Liu Jiaming shook his head and sighed, unable to speak clearly.
Uncle Jiu saw that he was hesitant to speak, and couldn't help laughing and said, "If you have something to say, just say it. In our B team office, what are you afraid of?"
"Really... You are making such a mess, adding trouble to our case handling." Liu Jiaming finally said it.
"Pfft." Uncle Jiu thought he was going to say something profound, but he was actually holding back such a complaint, "Who would think that doing so would affect the revenge after death when they are messing around?"
"That's right..."
The relationships between men and women of this kind of people are what the detectives hate to investigate the most.
There are a lot of messy things, but very few of value.
"I had a quarrel with Zhao Dongsheng half a month ago because Zhao Dongsheng didn't buy me a bag. He's stingy." Woman A snorted coldly while talking in the interrogation room.
This person basically has an ordinary relationship with Zhao Dongsheng, and only cares about bags. After checking, it turns out that he is a simple person. He has neither complicated interpersonal relationships nor has he gone through any storms. He can basically be ruled out as a suspect.
"I'm breaking up with Zhao Dongsheng because I think he's too old and boring." B shrugged her shoulders and said it nonchalantly.
This woman is very casual. She has no emotional appeal to Zhao Dongsheng and doesn't even care about his money.
Looking back on her life in the past few months, her interpersonal relationships are very rich and her emotional relationships are not simple. Zhao Dongsheng is just one of the passers-by in her life. Many of her friends don't even know that she has had this kind of relationship with Zhao Dongsheng.
Also ruled out suspicion.
"Zhao Dongsheng found out that I was playing around with multiple women. Zhao Dongsheng is so unreasonable. He is just playing around and still has to take care of others. Who wants to stay alone for him? You are just thinking too much! Is my best youth tied to him? We are all just playing around, and we all know it. Old things are so annoying." C sneered.
This woman wanted to get rid of Zhao Dongsheng. Zhao Dongsheng did express his reluctance, but he didn't show any sincerity. The breakup lasted for a while, and the woman had to move house before she was completely rid of Zhao Dongsheng.
When Zhao Dongsheng got into trouble, she had not contacted Zhao Dongsheng for half a month.
Thoroughly check all her schedules and interpersonal relationships to eliminate suspicion.
"What's the difference between true and false? I will be as sincere to him as he is sincere to me. Sir, my friends are all very honest. Although I am very dissatisfied with Zhao Dongsheng's behavior and I will complain to my friends, will your friends be stupid enough to help you kill someone just to vent your anger? We are all ordinary people. Don't be so fanciful."
Although this person was impatient, she also cooperated and explained in an orderly manner from the time she met Zhao Dongsheng to the recent situation.
As she said, her social circle is very simple, all of them are office workers and office workers' parents. These people around her are probably ordinary people who think they will never come into contact with a homicide case in their lifetime.
After a thorough investigation, the transcript was signed and the suspicion was also eliminated.
"I have nothing to do with him, sir, don't slander my innocence. It's so unlucky to be involved in such a thing. Who knows what will happen if it gets out? It's so annoying."
This is the pretty girl who is said to have an ambiguous relationship with Zhao Dongsheng by other people. She looks very outstanding, and she is very good at dressing up and knows how to show her beauty. She is the type that will make everyone turn their heads when walking on the street, suitable for men, women, young and old.
The detectives checked and found that she really had no obvious relationship with Zhao Dongsheng.
It is very likely that because of her beauty, some people with fixed thinking just saw that she had work intersections with Zhao Dongsheng, and they had weird imaginations and irresponsibly made up some messy rumors to involve her in this case.
Eliminate suspicion.
"I heard that Zhao Dongsheng had something going on with his secretary. Maybe it was the female secretary who was messing with him. She used the beauty trap to cheat him out of money, and maybe she even embezzled public funds and couldn't pay it back. When she saw that the matter was exposed, she killed people. Sir, have you checked the accounts of Zhao Dongsheng's company and the accounts of those who were close to him? Nowadays, horse racing, stock trading, and casinos can make people into executioners."
This is a rich imagination, and he has watched a lot of movies.
But the detectives have checked the accounts of Zhao Dongsheng's company. The funds in and out in the past year have been normal, and there is no unclear amount, even a small amount. The financial staff and the people in power in the company are very cautious. It can be seen that although Zhao Dongsheng has a terrible private life, he manages the company very well. Mrs. Zhao said that he was a workaholic, and she was not completely deceived. He must have put a lot of effort in this job.
Moreover, Zhao Dongsheng and his secretary are innocent. Although he is messy, he also adheres to the rule that rabbits do not eat grass near their nests. He treats the secretary with courtesy and has cooperated happily for many years.
He even attended the secretary's wedding. As the secretary, the company leader made a speech and sent good wishes to the newlyweds.
Among the many people who were questioned, Zhao Dongsheng's secretary was a rare person who was really sad about Zhao Dongsheng's death. To her, he was not a scumbag, nor an irresponsible husband, but just a good boss.
These people were interrogated one by one, and investigated one by one. In the blink of an eye, nearly a week had passed.
Jiayi felt that her life was being consumed, but there was nothing she could do.
She finally understood what Fang Zhenyue had said, that the most important thing for an agent was patience and carefulness.
Patience really meant being able to endure, and not being impatient in these boring investigations.
Carefulness meant carefully observing these people, carefully analyzing and thoroughly investigating their words, reactions, etc., to be able to grasp useful clues, not letting go of the real culprit, and not letting one's patience go to waste.
At this time, she also understood the extraordinary power of her ability.
It turns out that having "flow image" can save so much time and energy for the detectives of Team B.
"Don't take detours" is easy to say, but it is not so easy in the process of investigating a case!
Sometimes Jiayi even wonders that if it is a particularly dangerous case, or in the drug-hunting team, the help provided by having "flow image" may not only save time and energy, but also prevent the death of fellow brothers and save lives... At
this time, the words that the uncle said to Peter in Spider-Man will appear in her mind: the greater the power, the greater the responsibility.
With a heavy chest, Jiayi tried to close her eyes and take a deep breath. After persuading herself, she quickly got back to work.
Sometimes people really don't dare to think too much, and mental exhaustion is pervasive. "Just keep your head down!" "Being happy is the most important thing!" These words are so hard to say.
...
After sorting out the transcripts and reports of all the women who were cleared of suspicion, there are only two people left, Gu Xiaolan and Mrs. Zhao. Because there are too many entanglements, it is impossible to confirm their suspicion or not.
Gu Xiaolan's interpersonal relationships are too complicated, and there are also people in gangs who are funding her filming. The relationship is unclear, and it is difficult to tell whether it is a cooperation to make money or what.
It is very difficult to investigate.
In addition, Gu Xiaolan's schedule is all over the world, and the detectives are chasing her to monitor her. Not only is it difficult, but the expenses are also uncontrollable.
Qiu Sushan felt troubled every time she looked at the expense reimbursement form. She couldn't solve the case for a while, but she had to keep applying for high expense reimbursements. It was not easy to file a report.
Moreover, Gu Xiaolan did not cooperate with the detective's questioning. She was clearly told that some things needed to be reported to the police as soon as possible, but she treated the police's notice as fart and continued to do her own thing.
Therefore, at first, even if the detectives of Group B thought she was very beautiful, or that it was impressive to say that she was with a star, they still felt a little happy.
But after five or six days, they got annoyed. Really, as long as this person didn't cooperate, no matter how beautiful she was, they couldn't appreciate her.
On the other hand, it was another difficult thing to deal with Mrs. Zhao, Chen Tingting.
Chen Tingting was really "free". Every day she would paint at home, or find a place with pleasant scenery to paint, or she would stay at home and watch movies.
After being in hiding for almost a week, she only met with a friend once, who was her roommate when she was in school. They went to exhibitions together, drank tea, had meals, went home to chat, stayed overnight, and the next day, she drove to work.
She had no special social circle, no special hobbies, so simple that the detectives couldn't find any clues.
The maids at home were even more boring. They only went to the market and home. There was no sign of the drama of "the little nanny falling in love with the male owner".
Although the maids were distant from Mrs. Zhao, every time they talked and communicated, everyone was calm and there was no conflict.
The appearance of Chen Tingting herself during this period was not much different from the descriptions of her neighbors and rich wife friends.
She doesn't like to show off, doesn't like socializing, likes quietness, and has nothing in common with most people. She seems to be very happy as long as she has enough food and drink and can paint.
As for her husband, she doesn't care much. She makes daily arrangements at home and ensures that her husband has food to his taste and warm clothes to wear.
As for whether her husband has a lover, she just smiles even if others gossip about it in front of her.
Because of her attitude, many rich wives think that she and her husband are in a contract marriage. The husband pays a certain amount of living expenses to the family and will come home. It seems that it is enough for him to not care too much about her and not ask too much of her.
During his investigation, Liu Jiaming also thought whimsically whether he could see the jealousy and hatred hidden deep in Mrs. Zhao's heart from her paintings.
Following this idea, the agents checked all her paintings from the past two years.
They were all oil paintings of landscapes and flowers and birds, with bright and bold colors and avant-garde and vivid compositions.
When the agents looked at them, they felt better and had a sense of openness and comfort.
They asked experts from the University of Hong Kong, and they also said that the expressions of these paintings were bright and not dark at all. They
were not at all like those foreign paintings with fierce and chaotic lines, black figures painted to be eerie and terrifying, and accompanied by bright red blood to present distorted psychology.
As for a person like Mrs. Zhao, Chen Tingting, the agents really couldn't imagine what would cause her to have a conflict with Zhao Dongsheng that was so huge that it led to murder.
This woman is as light as tea and as elegant as chrysanthemum. She kills people? I can't imagine that picture in my mind.
In the line of murder for love, the detectives dug up other suitors of Gu Xiaolan.
The man who was involved in gangs has been busy investing in the film industry and completely clearing his name recently. The entire trajectory of his actions and his schedule in the past period of time are consistent with this, indicating that at least his mind is not divided too much on Gu Xiaolan.
It doesn't make sense for such a person to suddenly go and kill Zhao Dongsheng.
The motive for murder is not established, and there is no other evidence. In addition, there are witnesses at the time, and no one else in the social circle is related to Zhao Dongsheng, so he has to be temporarily excluded as a suspect.
Another director is Zhang Jing, who is very talented. He used to shoot third-level movies and commercials. After changing his career, he actually made art films, and he shot them quite well.
Jiayi lamented that this era is really an era of abundant talent in Hong Kong movies and TV dramas, and she was relentless in her pursuit of Zhang Jing.
She dug up the fact that he had a fight with someone in elementary school and threatened to kill the other person's family, but he did have a very reliable time witness in the murder of Zhao Dongsheng.
Moreover, since he started working, although Zhang Jing had many deeds of swearing on the set, he really did not hit anyone.
He has never done anything extreme because of a woman. Even when a gossip magazine mentioned the ambiguous situation between Gu Xiaolan and Zhao Dongsheng, Director Zhang Jing calmly said that he just admired Gu Xiaolan, and if Gu Xiaolan fell in love with someone else, he would sincerely bless her.
Later, he did a good job. He even said that if Zhao Dongsheng wanted to invest in supporting Gu Xiaolan to make a movie, he would not mind being the director of the movie.
Would such an open-minded person suddenly run to kill someone at the risk of ruining his life?
That was not killing a kitten or a puppy, but a living person, a person with a high status, abundant funds, and considerable social status.
The motive for murder is also untenable. There is no evidence, and the suspicion is close to zero.
There is no other way, but to continue squatting, trying to find a truly useful line from the clues extended from these people.
Jiayi gritted her teeth and forced herself to adapt to this kind of investigative environment, even though this was the closest she had been to the case being unsolved and becoming an unsolved case since she joined Team B.
She turned off the lights, left the office, and walked out of the police station under the stars.
Fang Zhenyue consulted Da Guangming for some information upstairs, and discussed with Da Guangming all the reports that had been submitted by the Forensic Department of the Central Police Station so far, before letting Da Guangming go home.
When she went downstairs and left the police station and walked towards the garage, she ran into Yi Jiayi.
Da Guangming said goodbye tactfully and slipped away, leaving Jiayi and Fang Zhenyue to discuss the case for a few words. When they came to their senses, they were the only ones left in the entire garage.
"I'll give you a ride." Fang Zhenyue didn't allow any explanation, and carried Jiayi's bicycle and left.
Jiayi did not refuse his kindness and followed him obediently, thinking that she could take a nap in Brother Yue's car on the way home.
On the way, Fang Zhenyue did not mention work at all, creating a dim and stable resting space for Jiayi.
With her eyes closed and snoring, Jiayi seemed to smell the scent of soapberry approaching suddenly, which seemed to be the smell of shampoo, or it could be the smell of hand soap.
There seemed to be a slight weight on the top of her head, but it seemed not to be.
Maybe it was just a short dream, or it could be some wonderful glimpse captured in the haze.
When she woke up from a trance, Jiayi thought she had slept for a long time, but she looked at the watch and found that it was only half an hour.
But the journey from the police station to home only took a dozen minutes. Jiayi knew that Brother Yue had already arrived downstairs, but he just didn't have the heart to wake her up. She
smiled apologetically, squinting her eyes like crescent moons. As
she got out of the car, she returned to her car and said goodbye to Brother Yue in a serious and cheerful manner.
When he turned the steering wheel and was about to step on the accelerator, Jiayi stood under the building and said goodnight loudly.
Fang Zhenyue saw the graceful policewoman in the rearview mirror, and his smile was imprinted on the rearview mirror, which disappeared when he turned the corner.
...
Jiayi returned home and found that everyone was ready to take a shower and go to bed. Jiaru came out of the bathroom brushing her teeth and smiled vaguely: "Sister, your 'goodnight' is so loud that everyone in the building can hear it."
"How do you know that Sister is not saying goodnight to all the neighbors in the building?" Jiajun stepped into the bedroom and turned his head to argue.
Jiayi ignored the daily quarrels of the two little ones and went into the bathroom to take a shower.
I was so tired that I didn't care about anything else. I washed up, blew my hair half dry, and fell asleep.
The last thought before falling asleep was: Fortunately, my hair is short, so it's not as hard to dry as long hair...
The next day, the family sat around Yi Ji to eat breakfast.
Jiaru took today's newspaper from the kitchen brother's basket, holding a piece of entertainment gossip and said casually:
"Oh, what's wrong with people nowadays? They are so perverted."
"Why?" Yi Jiadong asked casually while tidying up the tables and chairs with Sun Xin.
"That beautiful rising star Gu Xiaolan, the one that my brother said was so beautiful some time ago. Entertainment headlines broke the news that she was followed every day, so scary!" Jiaru showed a disgusted expression.
Yi Jiajun put the chopsticks in place, then suddenly paused, turned his head to look at Yi Jiayi, and asked:
"Sister, the one who follows Gu Xiaolan all day long... the gossip reporter is talking about is not your B team agent, right?"
