Between going to jail and being killed, the driver did not decisively choose the former. He was really unwilling to agree, but he had to agree. In the end, he chose to cooperate with the police and make meritorious contributions while serving his sentence.
He has no choice, the information asymmetry is extremely great.
In fact, X already knew that the reason Bai Song ran away was that the killer killed Hou Fangyuan's wife too early, which aroused Bai Song's vigilance. But the driver didn't know about this, and even if the driver knew, he would still be suspected when the police released and thanked him when Bai Song was unharmed.
"I have a way to dispel their doubts about you," Bai Song said, "I can prove that I am unscathed this time and this has nothing to do with you. As long as you cooperate with me, you can leave."
“Gone…” The driver was terrified. What a joke! He helped in the process of besieging and killing the policeman, but he could actually get away?
"You know what crime you have committed, right?" Bai Song asked back.
"I..." The driver wanted to argue, but he knew it was pointless: "I... I know..."
"Come on, since you have chosen to cooperate with us, let's make this clear first." Bai Song said: "You must always remember that when you are outside, you can only trust money, because only money in your pocket is yours. But here, you can trust us. As long as you cooperate with us sincerely, we will definitely not let you down. So, let's make it clear first, cooperate with us, and make up for your crime with meritorious service. You have made the right choice."
…
As for X, he had no idea about Bai Song going out to eat, but he knew that the killer took action more than half an hour after learning that Bai Song had come out of the police station, and he used a knife cleanly and efficiently.
But this is inevitable. The murderer killed people in the countryside, which is a relatively isolated small society. He, an outsider, cannot hide for long. When he heard that there was already definite information over there that could take action against Bai Song, he certainly couldn't wait.
The driver described the process in detail. The driver had certain abilities in T, otherwise he would not have dared to accept Zheng Yanwu's job, so when he received the task, he still thought of some ways and found some people to rescue Hou Peng.
At this time, someone found him directly and told him that he would be able to successfully rescue Hou Peng, but if he wanted to survive, he had to listen to them.
The driver had just sent people to rescue someone when he was found. Knowing what kind of power the other party was, he had no choice but to agree under coercion and inducement.
The murder case reported by the driver was a real murder case, but this group of smugglers did not get along with the people over there, so they deliberately let the Mengcheng police help them deal with their opponents.
"Do you have a wife and children in T?" Bai Song asked.
"No, they're all here." The driver didn't know why Bai Song asked this.
"Then why do you still cooperate with them? Just tell us everything after returning to your country. Do you want to commit a crime?" Bai Song asked.
"Officer...Officer...You don't know, the guy over there is too powerful. He knows all my background, and his calculations from beginning to end are very, very powerful. I am afraid of him." The driver was really scared.
"So you think that by doing all this you can benefit all three parties, and nothing will happen to you, right?" Bai Song said.
"Yes..." The driver sighed. He had offended all three parties. Oh, no, it should be considered two parties. Zheng Yanwu and Bai Song should be one party.
"I'll give you a task," Bai Song said. "It's a very simple task. It will not only protect you, but also allow you to redeem yourself from your crime. You don't have to rush back to T, but when you return and complete this simple task, you will return to China and you will find that all your punishments will be mitigated or even cancelled. Otherwise, you will face domestic pursuit and become a fallen person. You may never dare to come back, let alone see your wife and children. Do you understand what I mean?"
"Yes." The driver already knew that he had to follow Bai Song to the end of the road: "Officer, you tell me."
…
…
After the driver came out, the police station chief also came back and asked Bai Song what was going on.
Bai Song said it was okay and told the director that the driver could be released at an appropriate time.
The director had no idea what had happened. Bai Song had turned off the surveillance before entering the room, and he didn't know what he had talked about with this person. He only knew that someone told him that there was a sound of kicking the wall inside, but no one dared to go in to see what was going on.
The director thought Bai Song had beaten the driver, so he didn't dare ask.
After settling down here, Bai Song currently only wants to see one person, Sun Jie.
It’s not that he feels insecure now, but he really needs someone he trusts the most to analyze these things with him. Sometimes, those who are involved are often confused and cannot get out of their own blind spots in thinking.
He drove directly to the Criminal Investigation Detachment not far away. After Bai Song arrived, he found Sun Jie, who had already come out at that time.
"Is the body being sent to the city?" Bai Song saw that there were other people around, so he didn't ask anything else.
"It's not needed for now. The cause of death has been determined." Sun Jie said.
"Oh? So powerful?" Bai Song was a little surprised.
"Remember the peanut-like metal I found inside? That's a magnet," Sun Jie said. "This so-called witchcraft is a capsule with a strong magnet inside. If you take one of these strong magnets, it's fine. But if you take a second one two hours after taking it, it's a big problem. The human intestines are constantly spinning. Once the strong magnets attract each other, the two intestinal areas in contact will be squeezed, leading to intestinal necrosis and intestinal perforation. If you're not sent to the hospital in time, you'll die."
"So, it's okay to eat after one day when we reach our destination, right?" Bai Song said.
"Yes, but I guess they will eat candy when they reach their destination. There is no need to eat this. It is a means of controlling people. The deceased believed in the witchcraft and ate it in advance, and died. This may also be a way for the leader to establish his authority, deliberately letting the person who wanted to escape get the second capsule." Sun Jie said: "In the martial arts world, the deceased was not killed by their boss, but died because he was unfaithful and ate the witchcraft in advance. Therefore, the boss is not afraid of others knowing, but regards this as a means to promote his powerful witchcraft."
"Then this case is simple. Let's arrest all the people reported by the driver." Bai Song knew that they were being used as a gun by arresting this smuggling gang, but he couldn't just give up arresting them because of this. People still had to be arrested, and interrogating these people might reveal other information about their mortal enemies.
"Hey, I forgot to ask, why are you here?" Sun Jie finally reacted.
"Why can't I come?" Bai Song said, "You're fine here, I just have something to tell you, let's find an empty room."
"Okay." Sun Jie felt that Bai Song must have something to do, so he didn't say much.
After finding an empty room, Bai Song told Sun Jie what had happened today.
Sun Jie was a steady man. He listened from beginning to end without saying a word, but his face looked a little cold.
"Can you trust this driver?" Sun Jie asked.
"I only trust my own people." Bai Song said, "But there is not much point in using him. The other party probably won't trust him either."
"So the things you arranged..." Sun Jie thought for a moment and said, "Okay, you have your plans."
After saying this, Sun Jie looked at Bai Song and patted his arms on both sides of Bai Song's arms: "If you are okay, everything will be fine. Now your opponent seems to know your habits thoroughly."
"Yes," Bai Song said, "He guessed ahead of time that I would come here. This is the most amazing thing. The second most amazing thing is that he guessed that I would block him."
"Huh..." Sun Jie gritted his teeth and said, "People like this should be handed over to me to deal with one day."
"Leave it to you?" Bai Song hesitated for a second before he understood what he meant: "Yes, I won't feel at ease if he's alive. Ever since the incident in Yuzhou, this hatred has been formed."
As early as July and August this year, when Wang Liang and others were thinking about going to X to arrest people, they deliberately attacked Mimei's website. At that time, Mimei's people knew that Bai Song was going to X, so they wanted to launch a wave of attacks. In X, this was not a difficult task, after all, Bai Song had a lot of conflicts with them before.
Moreover, it was not only Mi Mei who wanted to deal with Bai Song, but other forces might also be involved. In short, Wang Liang and others who were well prepared took down the enemy. Later in September, Bai Song went to Yuzhou and not only solved the case of Lin Liang and Lin Qing, but also tracked down the whereabouts of X.
"This X is probably a petty person who sees you as a thorn in his side," Sun Jie said, "He must be very intelligent. Such people are usually very proud, and you have destroyed his pride and threatened his safety."
"You mean this X, is she taking over the job of that fake stewardess?" Bai Song was referring to the fake stewardess who committed suicide by taking pills. At that time, Wang Huadong was also asked to dress up as a woman to gather intelligence.
"Very likely." Sun Jie said, "This guy's IQ is obviously higher, and he started to deal with these murders right after he arrived. The murder in Shangjing was also his, right?"
"Well, the dismemberment case was also carried out using similar methods." Bai Song said, "I just want to know how he knew me so well."
"That must be multiple contacts," Sun Jie said. "You see, he was able to guess that it was you who came this time, which means he must have known that you had just returned from the grassroots and had no major cases on hand. He was able to guess that you would surround him, which probably means he knew that you knew his personality very well. These two things basically show that he tried to understand you."
"But how could he have had the opportunity to contact me? Even indirectly?" Bai Song said, "Help me think about it. What's wrong here?"
"I'm not always by your side. You've only been back to our bureau for a few days. You were in the police station before..." Sun Jie said that Bai Song was being a bit unreasonable: "Think about it yourself. Have you ever encountered such a special coincidence?"
"A special coincidence?" Bai Song began to carefully think about every thing he had come into contact with after returning from Yuzhou, sorting it out bit by bit.
After thinking for a while, Bai Song said, "The most coincidental thing is that Senior Brother Liu Zhe found that piece of human bone."
"What are you thinking about... How could there be a problem with senior brother..." Sun Jie was speechless.
"Yes... but this is indeed a coincidence," Bai Song felt a little embarrassed. Senior Brother Liu Zhe's family has been anti-Japanese war heroes for three generations. Even if Bai Song betrayed the country, Liu Zhe couldn't possibly...
"Don't be anxious, think about it slowly." Sun Jie felt that Bai Song was somewhat impatient.
"Okay," Bai Song took a deep breath and started thinking back from the time when Senior Brother Liu Zhe discovered the human bones. Thanks to his good memory, he recalled the past bit by bit and suddenly thought of something!
Thinking of this, Bai Song was horrified!
"I think I know who has the problem," Bai Song bit his lip.
Sun Jie didn't say anything, intending to listen to what Bai Song had to say.
"The person who called the police! The person who called the police and reported that there were human bones in the river!" Bai Song said, "What a coincidence! There was just a human bone case in our jurisdiction, and someone in the neighboring jurisdiction called the police and reported that human hands were found in the river!"
"Oh?" Sun Jie said, "Tell me more about it."
"It was just a few days after the human bone case. I was still discussing this with a few fellow apprentices, and Senior Brother Pan Chen hadn't come up with a result yet. One night, I received a call from the sheriff saying that a human hand was found in the river in the next jurisdiction. You know, I would definitely go there in time if I heard such a clue at that time, so I rushed there and met the person who called the police. The person who called the police left a good impression on me, and his eyesight was very good, better than mine. He could see things that I couldn't see clearly at eight or nine meters at night." Bai Song thought for a while: "Later, I exchanged a few words with him, and finally we found that the so-called human hand was a rubber glove, so we let him go."
"What did you talk about with him?" Sun Jie asked, "Is it possible that he is X?"
"I remember that I praised him as a good citizen at that time..." Bai Song was depressed.
After a while, Bai Song said, "He is not X. His age, walking posture, etc. do not match. But he may be the person X found. This person has good observation skills."
"Well, and if the other party has any secret video or audio equipment, you won't notice it. X can use these to study you carefully," Sun Jie said, "Put it under a magnifying glass."
"It's meaningless to go back to Beijing and arrest the young man who called the police. We have no evidence to prove that he has any problems. But we can monitor him." Bai Song figured it out and was not in a hurry to arrest anyone: "The most urgent task now is to catch the murderer who killed Hou Fangyuan's wife."
"Didn't they catch him over there? Didn't Director Wei say that he had sent people to keep an eye on them?" Sun Jie asked.
"I guess the murderer found an opportunity and must be on the run now, but he won't be able to run for long. We'll see what we can get out of him after we catch him," Bai Song said. "This X is indeed a bit of a psychopath and wanted to target me. This time he got the chance, so he must have labeled me with a lot of personality traits, but I didn't expect that I'm not an impatient person."
Bai Song suddenly remembered the two days when his father-in-law took him fishing. During those two days, his father-in-law told him a lot, including to be safe at work, not to be impatient, and to eat on time...
Now think about what my father-in-law said...
