Chapter 49: Seeking Danger (I)
After Huang Can was brought back to the police station, Dong Zhan wanted to interrogate him personally. Gao Bochuan and Xia Beibei were blocked outside the interrogation room. Xia Beibei was so angry that she wanted to curse.
The video is crystal clear and the evidence is sufficient. There is no problem in convicting Huang Can. All we need to do is take a statement from her. Dong Zhan is just trying to steal the credit.
"Director Dong, you..."
"Beibei, come with me to eat a bowl of noodles"
Gao Bochuan interrupted her, and despite her protests, he put his arm around her shoulders and forcibly led her out of the Criminal Police Brigade.
Xia Beibei was anxious, "Boss, we finally caught Huang Can, and Dong Zhan doesn't know anything. What if we make things worse and Huang Can becomes alert? It will be difficult to ask more questions."
Gao Bochuan said: "Mo Tan's case is led by Dong Zhan, and his orders cannot be disobeyed. Besides, Huang Can can't run away, so we have plenty of time."
After saying that, he stretched out his hand to scratch her hair and said with a smile: "Actually, Dong Zhan is not a bad person. He is a little eager for quick success, but he is never careless when it comes to serious matters."
Xia Beibei curled her lips, "No, when you were arrested, the bureau sent so many elites to him. If he is not sloppy in his work, then it can only be said that he is incompetent."
Gao Bochuan laughed and said: "It's not that he is incapable, it's that you are too good and you can't show his level"
Xia Beibei was delighted to be praised suddenly. She was about to say something, but when she saw him walking towards Chu Yang's noodle shop, the rest of her words got stuck in her throat. After thinking for a while, she turned around and looked at him cautiously.
"Boss, I have already found Chu Yang and confronted him."
Xia Beibei picked out a few important sentences from their conversation that day and told Gao Bochuan. After listening, Gao Bochuan paused, reached out and pinched her chin, with an ugly look on his face.
Xia Beibei thought he was angry, trembled all over, and hurried to explain.
"Boss, I didn't mean it. I thought he knew who the murderer was, and I couldn't find a way to save you, so I was anxious and acted on impulse."
Gao Bochuan pinched her face hard and sighed slowly.
"I'm not blaming you for alerting the enemy. Since you know that these things are related to Chu Yang, you should know that he is very secretive. Even if you want to go, you should take Yun Fei with you. What if he hurts you?"
"I'm fine. Later Zhou Xun... Zhou Xun called me and I left."
In the end, Xia Beibei didn't dare tell him about Zhou Xun. She was in a complicated mood now. She was afraid that Zhou Xun would be involved. She now seemed to understand what Mo Tan and Chu Yang said.
"...When you find the truth, you will regret it."
Gao Bochuan saw what she was thinking but didn't ask anything. He took her to Chu Yang's noodle shop. As expected, the door was locked. After they went to the fast food restaurant next door to eat, Gao Bochuan called Chu Yang.
Chu Yang answered the call and made an appointment at a coffee shop in the suburbs. Xia Beibei originally wanted to go with him, but just as she got in the car, she received a call from Lin Qi.
"Boss Bei, please come back quickly. It's urgent! Quick!"
Lin Qi's voice on the phone was so loud and anxious that it sounded like a death sentence, and his tone was slightly excited. Xia Beibei thought that Huang Can had instructed her on something, so she planned to go back to the team first.
After finally making an appointment with Chu Yang, Gao Bochuan decided to go anyway for fear of unexpected events, so the two of them split up. Before leaving, Xia Beibei asked Gao Bochuan to send her the address so that she could go over after she was done.
As she expected, Lin Qi was so excited because Huang Can had indeed told her something.
but……
"Boss Bei, you... you really can read minds, ahhh, you are so mean. You didn't tell me such an awesome thing earlier. I'm so sad. Am I still your best sister?"
It has been nearly ten minutes since Xia Beibei returned to the team, and Lin Qi has been lingering around her, chattering non-stop.
Yang Lin tried to stop her twice and was kicked twice by Lin Qi. Finally, Yang Lin gave up, pulled a stool and sat next to Xia Beibei, looking at her with a complicated and solemn look.
"Director Dong just interrogated Huang Can and asked her many questions but she remained silent. It was not until she heard that you received a video recording her crime that she suddenly went crazy."
Yang Lin took out his cell phone from his pocket, connected the earphones, put the earphones into Xia Beibei's ears, and said in a low voice:
"I just sent Brother Liu away and secretly recorded this on the surveillance camera. Listen to it."
Xia Beibei pressed the play button, and soon, Huang Can's sharp voice almost pierced her eardrums.
"He betrayed me, he actually betrayed me! For that bitch Xia Beibei, he actually betrayed me. Fine, if we're going to die, we'll die together. Whatever you want to know, I'll tell you everything."
"It was Zhou Xun. The person who sent the video to Xia Beibei must be Zhou Xun. I didn't even know there were surveillance cameras at Mo Tan's home. That night I killed Mo Tan and left. I thought I did it perfectly."
"But an hour later Zhou Xun called me. He was very angry and asked me why I wanted to kill Mo Tan. I didn't admit it, so he said he had installed surveillance cameras in Mo Tan's home and he was the only one who had the video. He betrayed me. Do you know who he is? Haha, Zhou Xun is Shi Feng, the boss of the Sun Organization!"
"And Xia Beibei, you know about the Xia family murder case 20 years ago, right? Xia Beibei is Xia Ying, she was the one who drank the potion from the Xia family. She has the ability to read minds, she can see through people's minds, she became a police officer just to get revenge."
The phone fell to the ground, Xia Beibei's face turned pale, and her fingers trembled uncontrollably.
Zhou Xun...Zhou Xun is Shi Feng?
Impossible, how could Zhou Xun be Shi Feng? Isn't Shi Feng Chu Yang? How could he be Zhou Xun? No way, no way!
Seeing that Xia Beibei was not in a good state, Yang Lin ignored the phone on the ground and quickly patted her shoulder, "Boss Bei, are you okay?"
Lin Qi also realized that something was wrong with her and was about to speak when Xiao Zhou suddenly ran over in a hurry.
"Boss Bei, Director Dong wants you to go to the office."
When Xia Beibei pushed the door open, Dong Zhan was smoking in the office. When he saw her come in, he pointed to the stool opposite.
"Take a seat."
His expression was somewhat solemn. He had been looking at Xia Beibei since she came in, and there was a hint of complexity on his face.
Xia Beibei's face was still pale. She sat quietly on the stool, her heart in a mess and her head still a little confused.
Dong Zhan stared at her for a while, flicked the ash off his cigarette, and suddenly said, "When you were little, I held you in my arms. In the blink of an eye, you have grown up so big."
Xia Beibei was stunned. She thought Dong Zhan was going to scold her or ask about Zhou Xun, but she didn't expect him to start with such an opening remark. She forced a smile and said sarcastically:
"Director Dong, if you want to ask anything, you can just ask it directly."
She didn't remember meeting Dong Zhan when she was a child. Based on her understanding of Dong Zhan, she felt that his words had a purpose.
Dong Zhan blew out a smoke ring, then held the cigarette and inhaled it slowly. It was rare that he did not immediately refute or get angry at Xia Beibei's sarcasm. He narrowed his eyes, seeming to feel a little emotional.
"I remember that when you were a child, you were very well-behaved, quiet and didn't like to talk much. Compared to now, you..."
Dong Zhan paused for a moment and let out a long sigh. Xia Beibei looked at him in surprise. Before she could speak, Dong Zhan smiled bitterly and waved his hand.
He had no intention of continuing the story, but looked at Xia Beibei with a little more kindness and compassion.
"I know you have something to ask Huang Can. Go ahead. She's in the interrogation room. I've already greeted her. You can go in directly. The cameras inside will be temporarily shut down for half an hour. You need to keep an eye on the time."
Xia Beibei's eyes turned red, "Why?"
Dong Zhan put the cigarette butt in the ashtray, walked over and touched her head for the first time with the kindness of an elder.
"Your father and I are old friends. We almost had a fight back then. Your aunt and I..."
He paused again, smiled bitterly and said: "Zhou Xun is your aunt's son. If anything happens to Zhou Xun, your aunt will be sad."
In the interrogation room, Huang Can was sitting on a stool in a daze. When he saw Xia Beibei come in, he looked up at her with undisguised hatred and jealousy in his eyes.
Xia Beibei pulled out a stool and sat down, looking at her calmly, "Do you hate me so much?"
Huang Can sneered, suddenly stood up with his hands on the table, and glared at her fiercely.
"Hate? Of course I hate you. Ever since I knew you existed, I wished you would die. Why didn't you die 20 years ago, Xia Ying? You should have died long ago. If it weren't for you, he wouldn't have suffered so much, and he wouldn't have even looked at me. You ruined him, and you ruined me too!"
Xia Beibei tried her best to calm herself, but veins on her forehead were throbbing. She clenched the pen in her hand tightly, and her voice was trembling.
"You... the him you are talking about is Zhou Xun?"
Huang Can taunted, "Of course it's him, who else do you think it is, Chu Yang? I've already said, Zhou Xun is Shi Feng."
Xia Beibei ignored her sarcasm, took a deep breath, and suddenly stood up and walked towards Huang Can. Huang Can frowned and subconsciously dodged backwards, but Xia Beibei just squatted down and pulled up her trouser legs.
HCZX.
On the ankle, there are four letters tattooed: HC-Huang Can, ZX-Zhou Xun. The lover of Huang Can mentioned by Maureen turns out to be Zhou Xun!
Her hands and feet were cold, and she stood up and walked towards her seat.
"You know I'm Xia Ying and that Zhou Xun is my aunt's son, so you should know that we are related by blood, so why do you still regard me as a love rival?"
Xia Beibei felt difficulty breathing. She reached out and patted her chest, hoping to break the suffocating feeling of oppression. At this moment, she suddenly remembered what Gao Bochuan had asked her.
"Is Zhou Xun your cousin?"
At that time, I thought this question was very strange and inexplicable. Now that I think about it, he must have discovered something. However, she and Zhou Xun grew up together.
wrong!
She was sent abroad for two years, and after returning she was still in a daze, often unable to recognize who was who around her. When she was fully awake, she discovered that her aunt had had plastic surgery, her face looked unfamiliar, and her cousin Zhou Xun was already ten years old.
"Cousin? Your cousin died a long time ago. Zhou Xun is an orphan, and so am I. We should be a couple!"
Huang Can reacted strongly to hearing this. She clenched her fists and her face looked a little grim.
"Back then, he was adopted by the Zhou family, and I was adopted by the Huang family. I thought good days were coming, but only one year after the Huang family adopted me, the woman became pregnant, and their attitude towards me changed completely."
