Chapter 5 Investigation
Shen Tinglan and Secretary Chen stood on the roadside waiting for a car.
Secretary Chen was a little curious. Shen Tinglan seemed to know the boss. He had never seen that woman make the boss lose the distinction between public and private.
For example, I just asked him to lie about drinking.
"Miss Shen and Team Leader Lin knew each other before?"
Unexpectedly, Secretary Chen would ask this. She replied calmly, "We were schoolmates!"
Secretary Chen became interested. "Oh, from the same department?"
Shen Tinglan nodded, “Yeah, but when I was in college, Team Leader Lin had already graduated, so we didn’t have much intersection.”
She didn't know what Secretary Chen meant, but after all, she had been in the agency for many years, so she knew what to say and what not to say.
Although she is usually carefree, the workplace is ever-changing, not to mention the political circle, where relationships are powerful and a single word can ruin a person.
What's more, this is an extraordinary period.
The two of them tacitly stopped talking, and their car just happened to stop by the roadside. Chen Tinglan smiled and said goodbye politely, then got in the car.
Return to Yunjing Hotel.
On the 16th floor of the Venus Hotel, Lin Zhizhou took off his executive jacket and casually draped it over the back of a chair, then reached out to unbutton two buttons on his shirt collar.
The tall figure leaned lazily against the window, he took out a cigarette from his trouser pocket and bit the corner of his lip.
His eyes searched downwards for a moment, then stopped and slowly narrowed to a fixed position.
The woman was talking to Secretary Chen, who was two steps away from her, with a calm expression and a polite smile.
She has a slender and soft figure, long and beautiful legs, and is quiet and beautiful.
His dark eyes locked onto the woman, and he tilted his head slightly, his jawline bulging and his lines distinct. He lit the cigarette at the corner of his lips, took a deep breath, and blew out smoke rings, leaving a wisp of smoke.
Through the white smoke, I saw the woman get into the car and drive away, and Secretary Chen also turned and went into the hotel.
The man's eyes fell on the empty space. He took the last puff of cigarette into his lungs, pinched the cigarette butt between his fingers, and put it into the ashtray on the desk beside him with a little force.
The corners of the mouth are raised.
Shen Tinglan, I’m here to catch you!
Stand for a moment.
The man turned around, sat on the sofa, took out the documents on the coffee table and looked at them carefully.
"Knock knock knock..." There was a knock on the door.
Lin Zhizhou stood up and opened the door. It was Secretary Chen who had returned.
“Boss, Miss Shen has gone back.”
Lin Zhizhou's eyes were still fixed on the document in his hand. "What did you say?"
Hearing Lin Zhizhou's question, Secretary Chen became even more certain of his guess.
This, the iron tree is about to bloom...
He smiled and talked about the casual chat he had just had with Shen Tinglan.
After Secretary Chen finished speaking, Lin Zhizhou did not respond.
Ten minutes later...
Lin Zhizhou handed the nearly forty or fifty pages of A4 paper in his hand to Secretary Chen, took out one of the personnel lists and placed it on the top.
"This Jiangcheng is not simple."
"Someone couldn't hold back and wanted to kill someone with someone else's knife."
Secretary Chen looked at the list and nodded. The inspection team had seen all kinds of storms and waves, and this little trick was not enough.
Secretary Chen: "That's too hasty. We haven't even had time to warm up the bench yet."
Lin Zhizhou shook his head slightly, disagreeing: "Perhaps, this is beyond some people's expectations. Take a look at the cleaning information below."
"They probably didn't expect this tonight, and they're probably thinking of a solution right now, how to get away with it."
Secretary Chen looked at the hotel cleaning staff's information and found it simple and clear. There was nothing wrong with it. However, last March, the family's only daughter jumped to her death from the Yunjing Hotel where they were planning to stay.
Police closed the case: suicide for love.
Yunjing Hotel paid 20,000 yuan in compensation out of humanitarian reasons.
Baojie disagreed with the police's conclusion of the case and filed an appeal, but the court rejected the appeal out of hand.
There was no follow-up to the incident, but why would the cleaner work in the hotel where the daughter committed suicide?
What is the truth?
Secretary Chen realized that there was another hidden story in this case, but it was suppressed due to certain forces.
"Boss, what do you think?"
Lin Zhizhou looked indifferent, not thinking it was a big deal. He turned around and walked to the table, poured a glass of water, and slowly drank the warm water.
He said calmly, "Even a rabbit bites when it's cornered. This common man is not afraid of those wearing shoes when he's barefoot. For the sake of the common people, why not lend him the knife?"
He stretched out his knuckled fingers and pointed at the name on the list in Secretary Chen's hand. It was a person's name.
"Let's start with him."
Secretary Chen looked at the name and nodded carefully.
After saying that, he put down the cup, stretched, and yawned: "Okay, go to sleep, I guess there will be a show to watch tomorrow."
Secretary Chen put the documents away carefully and walked out of Lin Zhizhou's room.
The man had just finished taking a shower and was wrapped in a bath towel, his hair still dripping with water, his upper body exposed, with broad shoulders, a narrow waist, and tight, thin muscles.
Leaning against the head of the bed, he opened his wallet and stared at the photo inside. The girl had a high ponytail and wore a necklace of yellow orchid and gardenia flowers on her chest. She was standing on the podium, her almond eyes slightly startled, her expression as if she was ready to die.
The man's mouth curled up.
The reason why he turned and headed to Jiangcheng.
Yu Gong, it was a surprise attack on Jiangcheng.
Personally, there is someone in Jiangcheng he wants to see.
But this person doesn't seem to want to see him...
......
Shen Tinglan hurried to the Yunjing Hotel. Secretary Liao had already gone back, and Secretary Wang Dan took over the investigation.
According to preliminary investigation, the cleaner Yang has worked in Yunjing Hotel for more than a year. He is usually honest and diligent in his work, and there is nothing wrong with him.
Wang Dan personally interrogated the cleaner, who insisted that his friend accidentally saw a man with outstanding temperament in the inspection team, which led to the handing over of the small card. He refused to say a single word.
Wang Dan knew that he couldn't get anything out of him, so he detained the man.
He gave the hotel owner a wink and went to a secluded place to make a phone call.
Section Chief Chen saw it, pursed his lips, and said nothing.
Shen Tinglan saw something, and logically speaking, with such a big incident, the Public Security Bureau would immediately send people to intervene, seal off the hotel, and take the hotel staff back to the Public Security Bureau for questioning.
The key person, the cleaning staff, should have been taken directly to the police station. Why hasn't the Public Security Bureau responded in such a long time? Something's wrong.
This is clearly just a formality.
Or is there something else going on?
Secretary Wang Dan called back, his face solemn. He said to the administrative staff, "You go back first. Leave this to us. The Public Security Bureau will be here soon."
After the secretary spoke, the people in the administrative department looked at each other and nodded in agreement.
Several people left the hotel one after another.
Shen Tinglan felt that something was wrong, and trotted a few steps to catch up with Section Chief Chen in front: "Section Chief Chen, it's so late, it's inconvenient to take a taxi, let me take you."
Section Chief Chen nodded.
They both got into the car and fastened their seat belts.
Before Shen Tinglan could speak, Section Chief Chen spoke up: “Tinglan, there are some things that you just need to know in your heart, don’t ask too much.”
When Shen Tinglan heard her say this, he opened his mouth, and the words he wanted to say rolled around in his throat, and then he swallowed them all back.
But she was so angry that she cursed her father in her heart, damn it, when gods fight, the little devils suffer, and she is that little devil.
I have no place to vent my anger, and it's stuck in my chest, so I'm afraid I'll get breast nodules.
Damn it.
Soon, the car stopped downstairs of Section Chief Chen's residential complex. Section Chief Chen got out of the car, bent down slightly and leaned over the car window to comfort Shen Tinglan: "Tinglan, we just need to do our job well and don't think about anything else."
"Yeah, that's fine. Take care, Section Chief Chen." Shen Tinglan said reluctantly, feeling somewhat helpless.
Section Chief Chen stood there until Shen Tinglan's car disappeared into the dark night.
She turned around and went upstairs. Her body swayed and she staggered a little. She subconsciously grabbed the handrail of the stairs, holding it so hard that her knuckles turned white.
It has been done, so just let it be. There are tears, determination and a hint of guilt in his lowered eyes.
It was already three in the morning when Shen Tinglan returned home, his head feeling dizzy. He was indeed too old to stay up late.
He took off his black jacket, lay down on the bed, and wrapped himself in the quilt, cursing, "Those damn bastards!!"
After he finished speaking, he breathed evenly and fell into a deep sleep.
