Chapter 36 Who is Brother Wang (Part 1)
Xia Beibei checked the time on her phone. It was 12:26 in the early morning.
The room in the guesthouse was very small. There were five people standing in the room at this time. It was very crowded. Moreover, Maureen had a loud and sharp voice, which had attracted quite a few people.
Fortunately, Xia Beibei closed the door quickly and kept out all the people who came to join in the fun, otherwise she would have lost all face.
In the room, Maureen was still shouting.
"Xia Beibei, do you have any shame? You ran into my fiancé's room in the middle of the night. Look at what you are wearing. You..."
"Maureen, just try to scold her again!"
Gao Bochuan interrupted Maureen in a cold voice, with a gloomy face and a terrifying aura all around him. Maureen was frightened by him and trembled. She stammered and swallowed the rest of her words.
Gao Bochuan ignored her pale and angry face and said sternly: "I am not your fiancé. If you make trouble again, I will hold you criminally responsible. Now, open the door and get out. Don't hang around in front of me."
"Bochuan, you...you...you can't do this to me. I will tell my aunt. Just wait!"
Maureen stomped her feet in anger, but didn't dare to say anything more. After glaring at Xia Beibei hatefully, she slammed the door and left in her high heels.
As soon as she left, the room was finally quiet. Xia Beibei cleaned her ears and sat down next to Zhou Xun. Zhou Xun handed her the thermos cup in his arms and deliberately raised his voice.
"Baby, does your stomach still hurt? You said you have it too. You have stomach pain every time you have your period. I asked you to go to the hospital but you didn't go. Every time I have to worry about preparing brown sugar water for you."
After saying that, he glanced at Gao Bochuan's unbuttoned shirt as if mockingly. Gao Bochuan met his gaze, was slightly stunned, and then turned to look at Xia Beibei. Xia Beibei felt awkward for some reason, and quickly looked up at Chu Yang:
"Handsome guy, what's wrong with you? Why don't you stay in the hospital? Why are you here? Did the doctor let you go?"
Chu Yang was sitting in a wheelchair, his face was a little pale, his forehead was wrapped in gauze, and his body was covered with a thin blanket. He looked a little miserable, but full of energy.
He smiled and said, "I'm lucky, it won't be a problem. I just need to go to the hospital to change the medicine every day."
Xia Beibei frowned and wanted to ask something else, but she felt that they were not familiar with each other and it would be impolite to ask too many questions. Just as she was about to give up, Chu Yang seemed to see through her thoughts and explained in a low voice:
"I heard that you found Fu Wei's body, so I hurried over."
Fu Wei?
Xia Beibei was stunned and subconsciously turned to look at Gao Bochuan. Gao Bochuan obviously did not expect that Chu Yang came for Fu Wei, and there was confusion on his face.
Xia Beibei asked Chu Yang: "Do you know Fu Wei? What is your relationship? Are you familiar with each other?"
Chu Yang nodded and said, "We are not very familiar with each other. If we talk about relationship, I just bought a house from him half a month ago, so we are in a buyer-seller relationship."
Xia Beibei frowned and said, "Then how did you know that we found Fu Wei's body? Moreover, you two weren't close, so why did you run out of the hospital just for him? You..."
Before she finished her question, Gao Bochuan had already stood up and walked over to her, touched her head, and said in a hoarse voice: "It's too late today, go to bed quickly, and we can talk tomorrow if you have anything to say."
After saying that, he held Chu Yang's wheelchair with one hand and pulled Zhou Xun's arm with the other hand, "Master Zhou, it's time for you to go back."
Zhou Xun snorted, shook off his hand in disgust, then pinched Xia Beibei's chin and kissed her hard on the forehead.
"Good night, baby!"
At breakfast the next day, Gao Bochuan told Xia Beibei that Chu Yang slept in his room last night, and he had already found out about the relationship between Chu Yang and Fu Wei.
Half a month ago, Chu Yang took a fancy to a house in Hai City. The owner happened to be Fu Wei. Fu Wei was anxious to sell the house and the price he asked for was not high. The transaction went smoothly for both parties.
He bought the house just for investment and had no intention of living in it. He left after signing the contract. When he heard that Fu Wei had an accident yesterday afternoon, he felt uncomfortable.
Because he is a businessman, he attaches great importance to Feng Shui. He just bought the house and the original owner died. He thought it was very unlucky, so he wanted to come and take a look quickly, and it would be best if the house could be transferred again.
As for how he knew about Fu Wei’s murder.
"Director Zhou knew that he was in trouble and went to the hospital to see him. Yesterday at noon, I happened to call Director Zhou to report on my work. He heard Fu Wei's name and asked Director Zhou about it. Director Zhou did not hide it from him."
Xia Beibei had half a bun stuck in her mouth. She was stunned for a moment and then quickly swallowed it.
"Uncle? Does uncle know Chu Yang?"
Gao Bochuan reached out and wiped the rice grains from the corner of her mouth.
"Yes, Director Zhou, Uncle Chu, and my dad all graduated from the same police academy. The three of them were best friends, but then Uncle Chu got into trouble and they lost contact. Chu Yang's noodle shop opened near the police station, and Director Zhou went there and recognized him."
Xia Beibei asked curiously, "What happened to Chu Yang's father? Why have I never heard my uncle mention a friend with the last name Chu?"
Gao Bochuan raised his head and looked at Zhou Xun and Chu Yang who were walking towards them. He did not answer her question, but put the peeled eggs in his hand into her bowl.
"Eat quickly, we have some important things to do after eating."
Zhou Xun pushed Chu Yang over, then pushed the wheelchair directly in front of Gao Bochuan, and sat next to Xia Beibei.
Just as Xia Beibei brought the egg to her mouth, Zhou Xun held her wrist, leaned his head slightly, and swallowed the egg directly into his mouth.
Xia Beibei was speechless and raised her hand to slap him.
"Fuck! Zhou Xun, you're going too far. The boss peeled this for me. Can't you peel it yourself if you want to eat it?"
The two men wrestled with each other, and finally Gao Bochuan grabbed Xia Beibei by the back of the collar and took her away.
After the people walked away, Zhou Xun picked up the half cup of hot milk that Xia Beibei had left and took two sips. Then he threw the half-eaten bun in his hand into Chu Yang's bowl, and the soup splashed all over Chu Yang.
"I don't care how you fight, but if you dare to touch her, I will uproot your nest."
Chu Yang took a few napkins and slowly wiped the soup off his clothes, smiling and saying:
"When the young master is angry, he doesn't recognize his relatives. I don't dare to offend him. So, the young master has found the wrong person. I am not the one who wants to touch her."
At nine o'clock in the morning, a briefing on the murder of Fu Wei was held in the conference room of the County Public Security Bureau. In addition to Gao Bochuan and other criminal police officers from Yun City, all relevant persons in charge of the police stations involved in the case attended the meeting.
The meeting was chaired by Gao Bochuan, captain of the criminal police brigade of the Yunnan Public Security Bureau. Based on the clues and information currently available to the police, he proposed several preliminary measures that could be taken.
First, Fu Wei stayed in Zhang Tao’s hotel for a while. The hotel did not provide meals, and there were no takeaway points even in the town, so he must have gone out to eat.
Now that you have been out, you can take Fu Wei's photos and visit nearby villagers, especially the restaurants and shops near the hotel.
Second, the means of committing the crime in this case were extremely cruel. The possibility of silencing someone cannot be ruled out, but the possibility of a vendetta is very high. Therefore, a comprehensive investigation should be conducted immediately into the social relations of the deceased and his family.
Third, why did the murderer use the hotel’s snakeskin bag to carry the body? Since he used a snakeskin bag, the body might have been transported to the hotel from the garbage dump at the foot of the mountain.
Moreover, Fu Wei died of a gunshot to the head. We should visit the surrounding residents as soon as possible to see if anyone has seen someone holding a snakeskin bag or heard gunshots nearby.
Fourth, the friend who asked for the refrigerator mentioned by the hotel owner Zhang Tao is crucial. He is the key to solving the case. It cannot be ruled out that he is the murderer, so we should continue to investigate the news of the strange man.
Fifth, why was Fu Wei suddenly in a hurry to sell the house half a month ago? Since he sold the house in Haishi, why did he hide in a small hotel in Lianxiang Town, Haishi? The reason why Fu Wei sold his house may be a breakthrough, and his financial problems should be investigated immediately.
The atmosphere was solemn throughout the three-hour meeting. Everyone felt like a huge stone was pressing on their hearts. After all, the murderer's methods were extremely cruel, which was especially shocking when the photos of the body parts were enlarged on the screen.
After the meeting, Gao Bochuan grabbed Xia Beibei who was walking out.
"If you're not feeling well, don't go on the field trip with us. Rest well in the guesthouse today."
Xia Beibei shook her head and said, "Boss, I'm fine. I won't hold you back."
Gao Bochuan said, "Chu Yang wants to go check out the house that Fu Wei sold him. It's just right that I'm going to take Yun Fei with me to look for clues. It's nothing serious. Be obedient and go back to rest. If you're really bored, go find Gu Ding, or go to the hospital to see Yang Lin."
Xia Beibei grabbed his arm and said, "Boss, I'm really fine. I just have menstrual cramps. And I also think there must be something wrong with Fu Wei's sudden rush to sell the house. I want to go with you to take a look."
Gao Bochuan stretched out his hand and pinched her slightly pale face, and said in a deep voice: "No, it's not convenient for you to go out on the road now. I'll go and explore the way first, and I'll inform you in time if there is any news."
As soon as they walked out of the door, they saw an eye-catching yellow sports car parked in front of the Public Security Bureau. Zhou Xun honked the horn twice and waved to Xia Beibei.
Gao Bochuan slowly narrowed his eyes, and suddenly leaned close to Xia Beibei's ear and said, "Find an opportunity to break up with him. I want a legitimate status."
Xia Beibei was stunned and looked up at him in surprise. Huh? Did she promise him?
"Boss, didn't you say you would give me some time to think about it? You said you would wait until this case is over before..."
"They all saw me in your room last night, dishevelled. My innocence is gone, and you still want to consider it? I thought you had already agreed. So are you so irresponsible, huh?"
"Um, this... Actually, boss, I've already told Zhou Xun to find an auspicious day to dump me."
"Very good, you have performed well recently, and your bonus will be doubled this month."
