Piranha Plant (18)
Song Xinran's memories slowly faded away, and she returned to reality, but a faint smile appeared on the corners of her mouth.
The cage had imprisoned her, making it hard for her to breathe. She was like a bird in a cage, longing for freedom.
The moment she desperately grew sharp claws and beak and broke through the cage, she could no longer retract the sharp blades in her body.
Her life should have ended long ago.
In the interrogation room, Song Xinran did not show panic like the other suspects. She was almost calm. Maybe she would be surprised when she first heard that someone had found a body, but that was only for a moment. That must have been part of her plan, the worst part.
All members of Team 2 participated in the interrogation, which was presided over by Meng Siqi.
"Suspect Song Xinran, now that the evidence is conclusive, please recall the facts of the crime carefully. Everything you say will become evidence in court!" Meng Siqi said seriously.
"I can tell you, but I have a condition."
Unexpectedly, the suspect would negotiate terms. Not only Meng Siqi, but everyone else was confused. Meng Siqi had no decision-making power, so she glanced at Han Changlin deliberately.
Han Changlin said directly: "Go ahead."
"Jin Yaming and I have both committed crimes. I hope you can promise to take care of Cai Chunmei."
This condition coming from the mouth of this female devil is somewhat confusing, but also understandable.
Meng Siqi believed that Cai Chunmei was the bond that bound Jin Yaming and her together, and also the bond that controlled her over Jin Yaming. She had taken good care of him over the years and should have developed some feelings for him. Perhaps, she had a tiny bit of kindness in her heart, and that was the only salvation that would prevent her from being reborn after her death.
Han Changlin said: "Someone will take care of her, you don't have to worry, I can guarantee this, you can tell me now."
"I don't know where to start. Ask me."
Meng Siqi asked: "Let's talk about you and Fu Songan first. How did you know each other? Why did you want to kill him?"
"He was my advisor in college. To be honest, I was surprised when I first met him because he looked very similar to Jin Yaming. But I didn't like him. I don't like men."
Meng Siqi could probably understand Song Xinran's psychology. The shadow of disliking men might come from her childhood. She asked, "Including Jin Yaming?" The relationship with Jin Yaming is actually what Meng Siqi has always wanted to explore. Even if you know their story, it is still difficult to define this kind of relationship.
"I am different from Jin Yaming." Song Xinran said lightly.
"So do you love him, or are you just using him?"
"Hmph." Song Xinran uttered a light nasal sound. "Maybe you think so. You think I've been using him all the time, but in fact I'm also dependent on him. When Yaming was a teenager, he liked to look at women in swimsuits in magazines. I was also worried that he would leave me. I promised him that we wouldn't be boyfriend and girlfriend, but I could satisfy him on the condition that he couldn't touch other women."
Meng Siqi swallowed. Song Xinran's words made her feel a little uncomfortable. Instead, she became more confused about this relationship.
Song Xinran added: "In fact, he never touched me from beginning to end. He told me that when we made enough money and cured his mother's illness, we would leave here and go to a place where no one knew about our past, and we would get married..."
Meng Siqi was silent, and her heart became uneasy. She seemed not to really understand their relationship. She originally thought that they were in a relationship of mutual prosperity and coexistence, especially after meeting Cai Chunmei, she felt that Song Xinran was using Cai Chunmei to make Jin Yaming feel at ease to confess his guilt.
In reality, this may not be the case. Jin Yaming may have confessed his guilt willingly because he wanted Song Xinran to live a better life. Perhaps he had thought about this since he was ten years old.
She gave up the idea of exploring their relationship in depth, because the human heart is the most complicated thing in the world. She asked instead: "So, you don't like Fu Songan, you should hate him, right?"
Song Xinran was silent for a moment and said, "He said I looked very pure, so he liked me the first time he saw me. In fact, there are many men who say this. The reason why I didn't reject him was just because of money. I really needed money. Since the day I left Yong'an Town, Ya Ming, Cai Chunmei and I have been living a wandering life. Money to me is like a patient who needs healthy blood."
Meng Siqi said, "I remember you have relatives who can help you with your studies." In fact, this view was told to her by Principal Jin of that primary school. He once said that Song Xinran lived for a while on the help of relatives.
"That's just what you think. No one will really want to help you unless you rely on yourself. Once, Yamin and I saw a traveler returning to town to visit his relatives. We guided him, but we took him to a remote place. Yamin hit him on the head with a stone and stole the money in his bag. He let us study and go to school. I told Yamin that he had to study medicine."
"Study medicine?" Meng Siqi almost blurted out.
"That man chased us for a while with a bloody head. I knew that only by studying medicine could I make someone faint easily and not do such a brutal thing."
Meng Siqi felt a little numb on his scalp. In Song Xinran's eyes, murder and robbery were just a common thing. Even the original intention of studying medicine was to make robbery more convenient.
Song Xinran continued, "I didn't reject Fu Songan because of the money. I've been to his studio, but I don't like it. I know one thing, Fu Songan also has an affair with a woman named Feng Lihua, who is the contact person of an organization. Feng Lihua likes Fu Songan, and Fu Songan traded organ specimens with her. And I also saw the temptation of money, and I hoped that Fu Songan would let me join this transaction, but he disagreed."
"Until Fu Songan's wife found out about us, Fu Songan had no choice but to ask me to leave for a while. In fact, I knew he might not let me go back because I discovered some of his secrets, so I killed him that day. Fu Songan looked a lot like Ya Ming, so it was easy for him to fake his identity. After that, Ya Ming became the link between Feng Lihua and me. Ya Ming was obedient to Feng Lihua in every way, and Feng Lihua also liked his appearance, so I could make a deal with her."
"I don't have much experience in human specimens. Initially, Feng Lihua and I had two organ specimen transactions. Later, we signed a human specimen contract because we could make more money. But I failed to make Fu Songan's specimen, so I found the second specimen in the nightclub, which was Sun Beizhe. He likes to play with feelings and wants to find beautiful women. I took him back to the photo studio and it was Ya Ming who solved him. At that time, a large amount of silicone rubber and epoxy resin were needed to make specimens. I was short of money, so I thought of kidnapping money, but I immediately gave up the plan after knowing that they called the police."
Meng Siqi was very nervous throughout the whole process. She even had a little resistance to Song Xinran's confession. If she was not a criminal police officer or an interrogator, she would not like to talk to such a devil. In Song Xinran's mind, money is above everything, and life is like grass.
During this process, Han Changlin was also deeply angry and heartbroken. If Song Xinran had not been so cunning, he would not have made a wrong judgment at the time and regretted it to this day.
Feng Shaomin, who had been calm all along, glanced at Meng Siqi with a deep but gentle gaze. Meng Siqi felt the calming power. She cleared her throat and asked, "Where's Hu Dingxiang?"
Song Xinran raised her eyes, "Maybe I really didn't like her at first, but she is very beautiful and has a good figure..." Having said that, she deliberately glanced at Meng Siqi. The look in her eyes was as sharp as the first time Meng Siqi went to her pharmacy. She seemed to have regarded her as a prey.
"Hu Dingxiang is only the third specimen I prepared," she said casually.
"Song Xinran!" Han Changlin suddenly said sternly, "Who is Feng Lihua?"
"She is from Hong Kong. After coming here, she married a rich man, but secretly she is the head of an organization that specializes in this kind of human trafficking."
"What kind of organization?"
"I don't know. This is all I know, and Feng Lihua won't tell me anything else."
"Where is she now?"
"You have met her. You once took her to the police station."
Meng Siqi suddenly realized that the rich woman who had mistaken Jin Yaming for a "duck" during Lu He's team's anti-prostitution operation in a KTV was Feng Lihua.
Han Changlin suddenly stood up and signaled Meng Siqi to continue the interrogation. He quickly walked out of the interrogation room and trotted to Director Liu's office. Director Liu saw him come in and asked, "Any news?"
"Director Liu, I found out that Feng Lihua is the leader of the criminal gang."
"Okay." Director Liu stood up, his posture straight, his breath sinking into his Dantian, "This time, the criminal gang involved in the illegal trade of large organs and organ specimens in Haijiang Province has finally surfaced. Han Changlin, your second team has made an indelible contribution. This is a case that the provincial department attaches great importance to. You have finally dug out important clues. Now I order you--"
Director Liu said in a powerful tone: "Immediately lead Lu He and a team of members to capture Feng Lihua!"
"Yes, Director Liu." Han Changlin bowed and immediately asked with a wry smile, "But Lu He may not listen to me."
"I ordered him to try it."
Han Changlin hesitated for a moment, then turned and walked out the door. Director Liu still picked up the phone and called, "Lu He? An important case, help Han Changlin complete it."
Han Changlin walked towards the first team's office and shouted, "Team Lu, we haven't moved the fruit yet. This is an important case. Director Liu asked you to come with me..."
Lu He picked up the police hat, put it on, straightened it, and said in a strong tone: "Team One, everyone, let's go!"
Han Changlin was slightly stunned. This Lu He was usually very capable in normal times, but he was also very capable at critical moments.
After a tense arrest, Feng Lihua was successfully arrested in a beauty salon. After Feng Lihua was successfully arrested, the interrogation of Meng Siqi was also over, and Han Changlin returned to the director's office to report.
Director Liu asked him to sit down and said to him, "I have contacted the provincial government. You should hand over Feng Lihua, Song Xinran and Jin Yaming to the provincial government immediately. We have successfully completed this case. The big fish behind will be investigated by the provincial government."
"Okay, I understand."
Director Liu was delighted. "Changlin, your team 2 performed very well this time. I will commend you with the provincial department."
Han Changlin said excitedly: "In fact, Director Liu, Zhao Leiting and Meng Siqi were the main force in solving this case. Zhao Leiting discovered Jin Yaming's crime, and Meng Siqi found important evidence of the corpse. They performed very well throughout the investigation."
"I admire these two young players in your team very much, thanks to your mentorship."
Han Changlin smiled innocently.
Director Liu said: "I remember that you failed in the Sun Beizhe case this year, but you solved this case at the end of the year. This is the redemption of your second team and the glory of your second team."
"Yes, Director Liu." Han Changlin was very excited. "I am very grateful that you did not stop Team Two at the beginning. I am also very grateful that you let me continue to lead Team Two to complete the mission. I..." His eyes were a little red.
"Okay, stop being sentimental and get back to work."
"good."
"By the way, don't forget about the celebration party the day after tomorrow. It's still your job to set up the venue. Don't think about making achievements and forget the main thing."
Han Changlin smiled innocently: "Director Liu, your memory is not as good as mine. The celebration party will be the day after tomorrow."
"You are the only one who can do it." Director Liu pointed at him and smiled, "Go ahead."
Han Changlin suddenly understood what Director Liu meant. He had never been involved in celebration parties for so many years, so why was he suddenly asked to arrange it this time? It was obviously like using a cannon to kill a mosquito.
But he understood Director Liu's intention. This time he wanted him to increase his sense of participation in advance. He couldn't help but feel excited.
