"This is the first time I've encountered your way of handling cases." Captain Zhong chatted with Bai Song in the car.
"I have no other choice." Bai Song rubbed his temples. "We all know that Zheng Yanwu and Zheng Can are unlikely to provide any valuable clues. If Zheng Yanwu had any suspicion in this regard, he would not be like this. You have also contacted Zheng Can and know who he is. Zheng Can's uncle is the only hope."
"Yes." Captain Zhong nodded. He had wanted to go look for Zheng Can's uncle for a long time, but out of respect for Bai Song, he had never looked for him.
Zheng Can's uncle is the biggest hope in this case.
Once this hope is shattered, everyone will lose faith in solving the case.
Now, during these ten days or so, everyone has maintained high morale. Now, it is time to reveal the answer: What does Zheng Can's uncle know?
We already had this person's information, but had never had contact with him.
This man is called Sun Hongqi, he is 48 years old, an ordinary person and the owner of a small auto repair shop.
Bai Song knew Sun Hongqi's identity a long time ago, so the police didn't need to check it out. This ordinary person's identity gave Bai Song a lot of trouble, and this was what he was most worried about.
Bai Song was very worried that he would not be able to get any clues.
…
"Lao Sun? He's out." The mechanic in red clothes answered directly.
This was the first time Bai Song and others came here, but they came back empty-handed. Sun Hongqi went to the city to buy spare parts.
"How long will it take for him to come back?" A criminal policeman under Captain Zhong showed his police ID: "Go find him and find out more about the situation."
"Usually he'll be back by noon. If you're not in a hurry, you can wait here for a while." The mechanic said, "If you're in a hurry, I'll give him a call."
"We are not in a hurry. Let's wait for him here."
The mechanic nodded and continued to repair his car, not paying any attention to the arrival of the police, and seemed not to be worried about the Old Sun he mentioned.
…
Bai Song didn't have to wait long. After about half an hour, Sun Hongqi came back.
"The police are looking for me?" Sun Hongqi looked puzzled: "Why are they looking for me?"
"I'm looking for you." Bai Song looked at Sun Hongqi at the door of the repair shop and frowned slightly.
Bai Song had seen Sun Hongqi's information and photos before, and felt that he looked honest and decent, but he didn't expect to see him in person. He was about 1.7 meters tall, not very good-looking, with short hair, untidy beard, and strong hands with obvious traces of motor oil from years of auto repair.
Physiognomy is still useful, because people's living habits can affect their appearance. People who have been in society for many years and are brave and aggressive can be seen from their faces as not good people. Of course, this thing is not absolute at all.
…
Bai Song doesn't want Sun Hongqi to be an ordinary person.
If Bai Song had known that Sun Hongqi was one of the shareholders, or a gangster boss, he would have looked for him long ago because he was sure that this person knew something.
However, just one look and Bai Song's heart sank.
"Do you have a nephew named Zheng Can?" Captain Zhong walked forward and asked straight to the point.
"Nephew?" The mechanic stood up immediately: "That's Lao Sun's son."
"No, no, no, he's my nephew." Sun Hongqi waved his hands and emphasized to the mechanic: "He's my nephew no matter where he goes."
"If you ask me, Old Sun, you are a stubborn person. We have raised this child for 17 years. Although he calls us uncles, he only has true feelings for you." The mechanic scolded Old Sun: "If you don't acknowledge that this is your son, this child will never have a father!"
"Don't mention anything. This is a matter of principle." Sun Hongqi shook his head and said nothing.
After a pause of almost ten seconds, Sun Hongqi raised his head and said to Bai Song, "Officer, although I am not his father, he and I are adoptive father and son, and we have formal adoption procedures. If he has any problems, just come to me."
"He didn't do anything wrong." Bai Song shook his head. "Is there a place where we can talk?"
"He didn't do anything wrong?" Sun Hongqi panicked. "It's all my business. If you have any problems, come to me. Zheng Can's driving skills are fine. His driver's license is my own business."
"What about the driver's license?" Captain Zhong looked at Sun Hongqi with some confusion.
"That's not the matter." Bai Song pointed at Wang Liang and Sun Jie and said, "You guys stay with the guy who repaired the car." Then, Bai Song patted Sun Hongqi on the shoulder and said, "Come with us."
When Bai Song came into close contact with Sun Hongqi, he found that Sun Hongqi was not nervous at all. It seemed that the only illegal and disciplinary thing he had done was to get a driver's license for Zheng Can.
…
In the police car, Sun Hongqi explained the whole story.
When he picked up Zheng Can, the child was already more than 4 years old. Sun Hongqi was a driver by profession, driving for his superiors. In the late 1990s, being able to drive was also a skill. One summer in 1997, he had to get up early the next day to pick up his superiors, so he temporarily drove the car back home at night.
At that time, leaders who had cars were quite powerful, but the drivers also had some privileges, they could drive the official cars home. The reason why Sun Hongqi could drive for the leaders was also because of his father's relationship.
That is a society based on personal relationships.
On the way home at night, Sun Hongqi saw Zheng Can near his home. The four-year-old Zheng Can was wandering alone on the street.
It was nothing unusual for a four-year-old child to run around the streets in the local area, but it was abnormal for a four-year-old child to be alone on the street at more than 11 o'clock at night. The kind-hearted Sun Hongqi got out of the car and found Zheng Can. He asked Zheng Can what was going on. Zheng Can was stupid and only knew his own name, but couldn't remember his family at all.
So Sun Hongqi took Zheng Can to the police station.
The police investigated for a long time but couldn't find out whose child was missing, so they wanted to send the child to an orphanage.
It was impossible to send the child in late at night, and the police did not want to take care of the child all night, so they asked Sun Hongqi to take the child back and take care of him for the night.
At that time, interpersonal relationships were simple. In a small county town, the police knew that Sun Hongqi was the leader's driver and they trusted him. The police didn't want to take care of the child all night.
Sun Hongqi took this matter to heart. After taking Zheng Can home, he found that Zheng Can was not afraid of him at all. He could eat anything and fell asleep very quickly.
He asked his father to help take care of the child, and early the next morning, Sun Hongqi still went to send his leader to a meeting.
He originally wanted to come back earlier, but the driver had to listen to his leader, so he could only accompany him. He did not tell his leader about this until the meeting was over. The leader then told him to go back first and he could drive himself.
That day, he took Zheng Can to the orphanage, but found that the orphanage was in a very bad condition and the children were all pale and thin. He was very unwilling to adopt the child. However, this child was very easy to raise, so he felt compassion and told the police that he was willing to adopt the child before finding the child's family.
The police gave him face. After all, he was the driver of a certain leader, and the adoption procedures were not difficult to handle.
That was the background of the time.
Even without a driver, the leader still has to eat lunch, and after lunch, he still has to drink.
Driving after drinking...
In that era...
As a result, a serious car accident happened that day and the leader hit and killed someone with his car.
Moreover, this person is an employee of a well-known local company.
