Chapter 115 Connection
Chapter 115 Connection
"Found it!" Fang Duo had just arrived at the station when she found what she was looking for.
This exclamation drew a large group of people to gather around.
"Here, Sun Zhengdao once said that someone contacted him and offered to hire him for 30,000!" Fang Duo looked up.
"That means Sun Zhengdao and Hu Hao might be talking about the same thing!" Dai Yan adjusted his glasses and concluded.
"Investigate!" Liu Chengyu ordered. "Look for commonalities between these two; are they serving time together? Has Zhou Yang not returned yet?"
"He just called the team and is on his way back, in about ten minutes!" Wang Chao said, standing up.
Everything is proceeding at full speed. Night has fallen, and there are only three days left until the deadline for solving the case!
......
The entire team was present in the brightly lit office.
"Next, I'll tell you about the situation we have right now!" Liu Chengyu shoved his cigarette butt into the ashtray and stood up.
The entire process took nearly twenty minutes to finish, which shows just how complicated the case was.
"This case is arguably the deadliest I've ever encountered in my many years as a police officer! So, I hope everyone can step up their game. Solving this case will be a valuable asset in everyone's career!" After giving his final summary, Liu Chengyu handed the rest of the time over to everyone.
Xiao Jiale recounted his visits to the subdistrict office, Lao Su, and Songhe Trading.
Fang Duo recounted the stories of Liu Shanshan and Hu Hao who identified the body, as well as the newly discovered relationship between Hu Hao and Sun Zhengdao's fellow inmate.
Dai Yan then gave a brief introduction to Qiao Songnian and a summary of Songhe Trading over the years.
"I think we should invite Sun Zhengdao back and question him properly!" Xiao Jiale suddenly spoke up, twirling the pen in his hand.
Liu Chengyu's lips curled into a smile. After discovering the connection between the other party and the deceased Hu Hao, he had the same thought: "Tell me your thoughts!"
"Currently, he is the only one who knows the truth and is still alive, so he should have some clues that we don't know about!" Xiao Jiale looked at everyone.
"I agree! And it would be best to arrange for the repair shop owner to do an identification to see if Sun Zhengdao is the car seller!" Zhou Yang nodded and added.
Upon hearing this, the room was filled with comments like "No way!" and "Impossible!"
Today, his contact with Xiao Jiale, Songhe Trading, or Old Su was just a simple one, but he felt it was necessary to learn more about them.
In particular, his next task will involve getting to know Su Qiang within the company, as well as Old Su's relatives.
......
The interrogation of Sun Zhengdao did not go smoothly. After all, as a criminal with a criminal record who frequently dealt with the police, he was somewhat familiar with their methods.
However, due to Liu Chengyu's persistence, he eventually revealed some of what he knew.
After someone contacted him and quoted a price, he was unfortunately arrested. After waiting for two days, he found that Sun Yan and Sun Weixin had not come to see him. He knew that the two boys had developed ulterior motives and wanted to go it alone behind his back.
That's 30,000 yuan! If I hadn't left Sun Yan's pager number, they wouldn't have gotten away with it.
However, he was no pushover. There was someone in prison with whom he had a good relationship, named Hu Hao, who was about to be released. He had given Hu Hao some information, and he didn't believe that Hu Hao wouldn't be tempted.
He didn't care about the final outcome. As long as he prevented Sun Yan and Sun Weixin, those two traitors, from getting the money so easily, he would have achieved his goal.
After Sun Zhengdao was released from prison, he immediately went to find the two Suns, but they seemed to have vanished into thin air. By chance, he saw the body identification report and recognized the two people: Sun Yan and Hu Hao.
To verify the claim, he went to identify the body, but unfortunately ran into Du Niu Niu. To avoid arousing her suspicion, he lied and said he was there to identify Sun Yan's body.
"Officer, I really don't know anything else. I can't even be sure if that body is Hu Hao's!" Sun Zhengdao slammed his hands on the chair, his tone full of grievance.
"Why didn't you notify the police immediately?" Dai Yan asked with a serious expression.
If this guy had thought of notifying the police immediately, the police would have intervened, and the people behind the scenes would have had something to worry about, and so many people wouldn't have died.
"Officer, I didn't have time! I was arrested before I could even say anything. I thought he was joking, but who knew he was serious!" Sun Zhengdao shrugged and leaned back.
"Did Hu Hao tell you his thoughts, or did you two come up with any solutions?"
"What can we do? We don't know who we're hiring, or who we're going to kill. We can only follow those two. Maybe we'll get killed if we're exposed. But I really didn't know those two guys, who usually seem so unassuming, could be so ruthless!"
Ignoring Sun Zhengdao's sighs, Liu Chengyu left the interrogation room.
Zhou Yang didn't go out tonight; he was organizing the information in his mind.
There seem to be quite a few clues, but they are all too small and fragmented. They are missing a decisive one, or rather, something that can connect them.
In the afternoon, Lao Su mentioned that Su Qiang had bought a car, which, upon identification, turned out to be this silver-gray one, but the buyer did not recognize Su Qiang.
Su Qiang died on March 24. Old Su didn't know whether Su Qiang's car had been sold or not, because his car was often parked at the company.
company???
Zhou Yang wrote the four characters "Songhe Trade" on his notebook.
If the car was sold, then who bought it? This person must have met Su Qiang at least once. If they haven't, then it's called theft.
Theft? If it really was theft, then the scope becomes even smaller. First, we need to know that Su Qiang is dead, and second, we need to know the location where the car stopped. That means it can only be Songhe Trading!
Thinking of this, Zhou Yang circled those four words again.
It appears that Su Qiang died on March 24, and seems to be unrelated to the case.
But a closer look reveals that they are intricately connected.
Sun Weixin is an electrician, and Sun Yan is a second-hand home appliance dealer. In Sun Yan's shop, there is Su Qiang's high-end audio equipment.
Su Qiang's car was used to dispose of the body; it had scratches from Sun Yan's three-edged dagger.
We must find out the cause of Su Qiang's death in order to connect everything!
"Liu Da!" Zhou Yang suddenly stood up, startling Xiao Jiale beside him.
"Hmm..." Liu Chengyu, who was smoking nearby, paused, looking at him: "What are your thoughts? Speak!"
"I want to find out the truth about Su Qiang's death first!"
Xiao Jiale's eyes widened. Although he also felt that Su Qiang's death was suspicious, based on the known clues, if he knew that Su Qiang had died before these people, would investigating him further help the current case?
You could solve the case at hand first, and then come back to investigate Su Qiang. There are priorities. There are only three days left until the deadline to solve the case, and you're doing this!
"How can that be? A sense of justice isn't indiscriminate..." Xiao Jiale felt that Zhou Yang was acting impulsively.
"Okay, tell me your thoughts!" Liu Chengyu couldn't possibly have missed what Xiao Jiale had thought of, but he still nodded in agreement, feeling that Zhou Yang must have his reasons.
