Chapter 35
When Chen Pu and Li Qingyao met Qian Chengfeng in the office, he was already a workplace elite dressed in a suit and tie, calm and dignified, and smiling before he spoke.
However, the first thing Li Qingyao saw was that at least half of his hair was white.
This is different from the photo in the information. Qian Chengfeng in the photo has a full head of black hair. He is only 32 years old.
The two policemen sat down opposite Qian Chengfeng with normal expressions, but he seemed to be very good at guessing what others were thinking. He smiled and touched his hair and said, "My hair is a bit scary. This is what happens in e-commerce. Staying up late every day makes people age quickly. Come, have some tea. My friend just brought some raw Pu'er tea from Yunnan last month."
The two of them hurriedly thanked him and drank the slightly bitter yet sweet tea. Li Qingyao looked around the office environment calmly. Qian Chengfeng is currently the marketing director of an e-commerce company, in charge of business, so he is definitely a core figure. The office is located on the 30th floor of an office building. It is very large and decorated with luxurious furnishings. From the window you can overlook the entire Xiangcheng scenery. It can be seen that Qian Chengfeng has a high status in the entire group.
"Can I ask how the investigation into Mr. Luo's case is going?" Qian Chengfeng said.
Chen Pu replied: "It is still under investigation."
Qian Chengfeng showed a sad expression and said, "Okay, I won't ask any more questions. I sincerely hope that you can catch the murderer as soon as possible so that Mr. Luo can rest in peace. If there is anything you can do for me, please feel free to ask."
"We will do our best. There are indeed some situations that we need to understand from you."
"Please go ahead."
"Has Luo Hongmin made enemies with anyone recently?"
Qian Chengfeng frowned and thought for a while, then shook his head: "As far as I know, no. Internally, the entire group is under the control of Mr. Luo, and it runs normally and smoothly. He is the boss, and he treats everyone well, giving everyone what they deserve. Who would have a problem with him? Even if the employees have problems with their work, they can't hate him enough. Externally... there are a few competitors who don't have a good relationship with Mr. Luo, but I don't think they will become enemies and kill each other, right?"
"Okay, we will investigate our competitors. I want to hear from you. In your eyes, what kind of person is Luo Hongmin?"
Qian Chengfeng placed his hands lightly on his abdomen and leaned back on the sofa. He seemed to be lost in memories, and his eyes slowly turned red. He replied, "Mr. Luo, he is my idol and the person I admire most in the business world. I think he is very visionary, capable, and courageous, and he always keeps pace with the economic trend. That's why he was able to start from scratch as a rural contractor and found Huayu Group. I am very sad that he is dead, and I feel like I have lost a guide in my life. To be honest, I am a college student with a low degree and no background. It can be said that I was promoted by him. Without Mr. Luo, I would not be who I am today. He is not only my superior, but also my elder and benefactor. I wanted to learn more from him and work with him to develop Huayu better. But now, there is no chance."
Qian Chengfeng lowered his head and wiped away the tears from the corners of his eyes. Li Qingyao pulled a tissue to him and said, "My condolences."
"I'm fine, thank you."
Seeing that he was gradually calming down, Chen Pu asked again, "How did you and Luo Hongmin know each other?"
Qian Chengfeng replied: "I used to work with others on the Internet and the results were pretty good. Later I came to Huayu Group for an interview and Mr. Luo hired me."
"You married Xiang Siling four years ago. I heard that Luo Hongmin was the matchmaker?"
"yes."
"Why did he bring you together?"
Qian Chengfeng smiled bitterly: "I guess at that time, I was the young man that Mr. Luo admired and trusted the most in the company."
Li Qingyao asked: "What about you two, were you truly in love at that time?"
Qian Chengfeng was silent for a moment, then said, "Xiang Siling was once the person I loved most in my life."
"What does she do to you?"
Qian Chengfeng glanced at Li Qingyao, and meeting his sharp gaze, he calmly replied, "Of course she likes me, too."
Chen Pu asked: "You divorced a year ago, what was the reason?"
Qian Chengfeng smiled when he heard this and said, "Comrade police, you don't suspect that I have anything to do with Mr. Luo's death, do you? It's impossible. The whole company knows that he is my biggest supporter. If he dies, I won't benefit at all. In the past few days, other vice presidents have begun to look at me with cold eyes. The funds that were approved before have become difficult to approve now. I hope Mr. Luo is alive more than anyone else."
Chen Pu looked at him and said, "We are just conducting a routine interrogation. You should answer whatever we ask."
Chen Pu Ren was young and handsome, but his plain glance, with a clear luster in his black eyes, was like two thin swords, piercing people's hearts. Qian Chengfeng was slightly shocked, and stopped making a fuss about the topic. Instead, he replied, "Xiang Siling and I divorced because of our incompatibility."
"Can we talk about the specific reasons for the disagreement?" Seeing Chen Pu's silent and cold attitude, Li Qingyao tacitly put on a white face and spoke in a gentle tone, "After all, Xiang Siling is so beautiful and the daughter of the group boss. You also said that you were truly in love at the time. You also have a daughter, and I believe that must be the fruit of your love. Why did you separate later?"
No one knew what Li Qingyao said that touched Qian Chengfeng. This time, he remained silent the longest. Although he did not shed tears, his red eyes when he looked up at the ceiling revealed the pain in his heart.
According to Qian Chengfeng's description, this is just an ordinary story.
However, no matter how ordinary a story is, it is also someone's unique life.
At first, their married life was very happy. At that time, Xiang Siling had just graduated from college. Although she was a little cold and introverted, she knew nothing about society and the company. But she also wants to be a good wife and an excellent working woman.
At that time, Xiang Siling had just joined Huayu Group, but she was at the headquarters and Qian Chengfeng was in a subsidiary. She was directly promoted to department manager and didn't understand many things. Qian Chengfeng was very experienced and taught her almost hand in hand how to manage business and people. That was also the happiest time in Qian Chengfeng’s life.
Three months after the marriage, Xiang Siling became pregnant, and the following year, she gave birth to a daughter, Qian Sitian.
The conflict between the two also started from then on.
Xiang Siling was promoted again and became group director. Her work became busier and busier, and the people she came into contact with became more and more advanced. She doesn't have much time to spend with her children.
Qian Chengfeng's career is developing well, and he pays little attention to his family, so his children have to be taken care of by a nanny. Li Meiling is impatient with taking care of children.
Sometimes, for ten days or half a month, the couple could not see each other during the day.
Xiang Siling, who has been fully socialized, mature and capable, and holds important power in her hands, began to re-evaluate her husband. Compared with those elite business men she had come into contact with, Qian Chengfeng was not handsome enough or rich enough. He had neither a brilliant academic degree nor a prominent background. Although he had good abilities, he was just a capable man under her father. In other words, she looked down on him. Qian Chengfeng accused Xiang Siling of not fulfilling her duties as a wife, not taking care of the family and children, and not understanding the difficulty of his struggle.
The two had more and more conflicts, quarreled every day, and even fought. Eventually they drifted apart and their marriage fell apart.
Qian Chengfeng sighed and said, "In short, she was wrong in this marriage, and I was also wrong. Now, she doesn't owe me anything, and I haven't done anything wrong to her. It's all in the past. I just hope that she can live a happy life in the future and take good care of our daughter. I am willing to bless her forever."
Seeing that there was nothing more to be found out about their marriage, Chen Pu asked, "Speaking of which, although you and Xiang Siling are divorced, I have read your resume and Luo Hongmin did not give you any hard time. Instead, he gave you more power this year, put you in charge of more departments, and increased your bonus and salary. Isn't Xiang Siling his favorite daughter? Does he really not mind at all?"
Qian Chengfeng looked at Chen Pu deeply and replied, "Police comrade, our General Luo is a man who clearly distinguishes between public and private affairs. He hired me not because I was his son-in-law, but because of me, my ability and performance. So all of this is what I deserve. If he doesn't give it to me, I will rebel."
Chen Pu asked Qian Chengfeng again where he was last Saturday night. Qian Chengfeng said he was sleeping at home. Chen Pu asked if there was anyone who could prove it, and he said that he was sleeping alone in the middle of the night, so how could anyone prove it? However, there are surveillance cameras at the pedestrian and vehicle exits of the community, which should be able to prove that he stayed at home all night.
Chen Pu asked the last question: "Your daughter Qian Sitian is under the care of Gui Siling. Do you see your daughter often? Do you like her?"
Qian Chengfeng looked at Chen Pu steadily: "Tiantian is my own flesh and blood, how could I not like her? I love Tiantian very much. If Xiang Siling treats Tiantian badly, I will definitely make trouble for her."
——
After leaving Qian Chengfeng's company, Chen Pu turned around and drove towards the community where Qian Chengfeng lived. He and Li Qingyao quickly surveyed the floor where Qian Chengfeng lived and the community environment, and asked the security guard for the surveillance footage of the night Luo Hongmin was murdered.
Conclusion:
Qian Chengfeng returned home at around 7 o'clock that evening, and the surveillance camera captured him going out again at 10 o'clock the next morning.
However, on the riverside of the community garage, there is a small side door for pedestrians to enter and exit the river. The door is opened by face recognition, and there is no surveillance installed. If Qian Chengfeng went down the stairs to the garage, it is possible that he would not be caught by the surveillance camera and go around to this small side door. After other residents swiped the door open, he took the opportunity to slip out. When we got to the main road along the river, there was a huge volume of traffic and many forks in the road, so it became difficult to track his whereabouts.
In other words, Qian Chengfeng's alibi has loopholes.
"I estimated that Qian Chengfeng's shoe size should be around 41 or 42," said Chen Pu.
Li Qingyao seemed to be thinking about something.
Chen Pu added: "Even if these two points are true, it does not mean that he is the suspect in the murder of Luo Hongmin."
Li Qingyao said, "I think so too. Qian Chengfeng gives me a very complicated feeling. He is very shrewd and worldly-wise, and also very ambitious. But some of the things he said today made people feel that they came from the heart and were sincere. Especially to Luo Hongmin and Xiang Siling, I felt that he really admired Luo Hongmin and regarded him as a big backer. He did not blame Xiang Siling, but wanted to part ways with him.
If a person is being hypocritical or wearing a perfect disguise mask, you may or may not be able to tell. But when he expresses his true feelings, you can definitely tell that it is real. Chen Xiaopu, you should know that I have experience in disguise. ”
Chen Pu obviously did nothing wrong, but she flirted with him. He didn't get angry, but smiled and said, "Yes, yes, you are his ancestor when it comes to pretending. I feel the same as you, and Qian Chengfeng doesn't care about showing us his ambition and snobbery, so it is logically reasonable for such a person to have the feelings you mentioned towards the father and daughter. However, I think he is hiding something."
Li Qingyao also felt the same way and said, "His hair has turned white. He said it turned white because of the e-commerce business in the past few years. But wasn't he also doing online and e-commerce business in the years before that? Why did his hair turn white in the past two years? How much psychological pressure does a strong man have to endure to have his hair turned white? And he seems to have a strong psychological endurance."
Chen Pu smiled and said, "That's not necessarily true. No one can predict physical health. Maybe it's because my body has been stretched to the breaking point in the past two years that I've turned gray. But it can be a point of doubt."
I told you before that a good detective should be able to capture some details that seem ordinary but are actually a little bit wrong. There are three things in his words just now that make me feel that they are not right. Perhaps there are clues hidden here that can help us solve the case. Li Dacongming, do you feel anything? ”⊿
This was the first time that someone demonstrated to Li Qingyao on the spot what "the terrifying intuition of an old detective" was in an actual case. However, although Li Qingyao is not old, he also has a vague feeling that sometimes when Qian Chengfeng speaks, it makes people feel that something is wrong. But now when she was asked to recall it, she couldn't remember it for a moment.
Chen Pu looked at his sister's slightly frowned brows, biting lightly with his thin white teeth. Ever since Li Dacongming joined the second team, she has performed exceptionally well in every aspect. There are not many things that can embarrass her, not to mention that this is something he can handle with ease?
Chen Pu's heart was a little bit distracted, but he forced his mouth corners down. Just when he was about to say one, two, three in a normal tone, he suddenly remembered something and looked down at his watch.
It's half past one in the afternoon.
Just 11 steamed buns and one tea egg, and they must be digested completely.
He has already sensed that Li Qingyao cannot be hungry now. If he is hungry, he will either become weird or irritable and crazy.
He asked, "Can I eat first? I'm hungry and have no energy."
