"Zhang Xi, female, 24 years old, from Lincang, Yunnan. She dropped out of high school, went out to work, and came to Yuejiang City. About two years ago, she worked as an administrator in the parking management office of the Jingjiu Muma Private Club. Not long after, she was too good-looking.

He was transferred to a spa with better work and benefits, until he suddenly resigned six months ago."

"I asked the club staff, and they said that Zhang Xi was attracted by club guest Hu Gaofei, and the two dated for a while. Later they broke up, and I heard that the quarrel was not very good. After that, Zhang Xi resigned. Some said that Hu Gaofei didn't want to see her, so he resigned from the club.

Got her——"

"According to this theory, Zhang Xi kidnapped Hu Gaofei and died with him out of love."

"Some club employees think so, but a small number of people use shaky words and contradictory confessions. As far as I'm concerned, I think there are other reasons behind it."

Ji Chengling described the results of the investigation to all the criminal police present.

At the head of the conference room were the branch director, the deputy criminal team member of the municipal bureau detachment, and two or three elderly people, followed by Li Zan, who was a little depressed.

Director Tong raised his hand to signal him to continue: "Focus on these few people and break through their psychological defenses one by one. They may not know much, but putting it together can be a clue."

"Everyone is staring at it." Ji Chengling: "The Jingjiu Horse Racing Club is a high-end private club. It is usually very low-key and is very popular with the high-income class. Ten of its members are from the high-income class in Guangdong City, and they come from politics and business.

And the academic community, if it really involves human trafficking as Zhang Xi said, I'm afraid..."

He did not continue speaking, and everyone present knew it.

Zhang Xi was an employee of the club, and Hu Gaofei was a member of the club. She and Hu Gaofei died together under the eyes of the people. Before she died, she mentioned "human trafficking". It is not difficult to guess that there may be a certain connection between the club and "human trafficking".

relation.

If the evidence is conclusive, all members of the club will be accomplices in the "human trafficking", but these "accomplices" come from high-income people in politics, business and academia.

You can imagine how much social unrest it will cause after all this is announced.

This is a more serious case than seaport smuggling and drug trafficking on Hang Shui Street, because it involves the country's credibility.

Ji Chengling: "Hu Gaofei, a local, is 29 years old. He comes from an ordinary family. After graduation, he hung out with people in Zhou Boxue's circle. He opened a small company of his own and made some investments to accumulate assets. In recent years, he has taken advantage of the boom in investment in the entertainment industry.

He has made a lot of money and is somewhat famous in the industry. His private life is chaotic and he engages in male-female relations. His ex-girlfriend who he had cheated on for several years was so angry that he had a miscarriage... From this point of view, this ex-girlfriend is more likely to kill Zhang Xi than Zhang Xi.

Hu Gaofei."

After a pause for a few seconds, Ji Chengling added: "If Zhang Xi and Hu Gaofei are only emotionally involved as far as we know, then Bureau Tong, Deputy Criminal Team, and Team Li, my report is complete."

The Deputy Criminal Team responded and handed over the home court to Bureau Tong.

Bureau Tong: "Let’s dig deeper into the relationship between Zhang Xi and Hu Gaofei. How did Zhang Xi travel from Lincang to Yuejiang, how was she fired from her job by the club, where has she been, how has she lived in the past six months, and the most important thing!"

At this time, Director Tong did not hand over full control of the case every time as usual. Instead, he sat in the town in person, calmly listened to the reports of his subordinates, extracted useful information from the messy reports, and then issued instructions with ease.

Be calm and steady, like a general who has experienced hundreds of battles and is fearless in the face of danger.

The usually lazy old man in the branch followed orders at this time, showing a kind of calmness and tacit understanding that the young police officers did not have.

"Who in the end connected Zhang Xi's car to the police and the local radio station's broadcast communication? What is the other party's real purpose? Is this case related to the recent murder case handled by the Criminal Investigation Office?!" Bureau Tong glanced at Li Zan,

He continued: "Don't let go of any clues! King!"

"Here!" As if an electric current passed through his body, Wang immediately straightened his back, swept away the fatigue of staying up late, and tried his best to show his energetic side.

Bureau Tong: "You are good at computer skills. Check the radio communication here."

Wang: "Yes!" Then there was nothing more to do, and he quietly became depressed again.

Bureau Tong talked about some more layouts, then asked others to add small details, and finally asked if there were any questions.

If no one answers, it means there is no question.

Bureau Tong nodded and communicated with the Deputy Criminal Team from the Municipal Bureau: "Captain Xing, do you have anything to add?"

Because the case was so involved, the city bureau decided to intervene in the case.

"Ah?" The deputy criminal team member seemed to have just been woken up from a daze. He pulled his hair and collar to cheer him up. He pondered for a moment and then said: "What you said is very good. I basically have nothing to add. But -" he said.

Turning around, he looked at Li Zan, who had said few words during the whole process: "Can I ask Captain Li why Zhang Xi appointed you to help her?"

Li Zan was so absorbed in staring at the table that he didn't hear the Deputy Criminal Team's question at all.

Chen Jie sat next to him and quietly pushed Li Zan's arm: "Captain Li! Captain Li! Wake up, the deputy criminal squad of the city bureau wants to talk to you!"

Li Zan came back to his senses, poked his nose, and asked quite openly: "What did you just say?"

The deputy criminal team did not reply. The subordinates beside him who were also from the city bureau rolled their eyes with some opinions. They had long heard that the Dongcheng branch was a 'nursing home'. Because the Dongcheng branch performed well in the two major cases of Haigang and Hangshui Street, they

I thought that the "nursing home" had finally emerged, but I didn't expect that other people in the branch were very energetic, but the captain of the criminal investigation team was in a daze the whole time.

It's also very unprofessional.

Repeated questions about the good temper of the criminal deputy team.

Li Zan: "I don't know."

Deputy Criminal Team: "You don't know?"

Li Zan scratched his chin and said uncertainly: "Maybe Zhang Xi came because of my reputation?"

The detachment detective thought to himself that not only was he unprofessional, he was also extremely shameless.

Li Zan shrugged his shoulders: "Don't have your expectations, I'm confused now. Zhang Xi's series of actions are obviously abnormal. Her, or 'them'' real purpose may be the Wuma Club, the people behind the club, or

It's to save trafficked women, but it won't be me anyway. I'm just an unimportant bridge. Maybe because the successful resolution of previous cases made Zhang Xi feel that I was a trustworthy and capable 'policeman'. In short, I'm not important.

.”

The deputy criminal team thought for a while and said: "That makes sense. Then tell me what cases you are handling recently?"

"There's something to say." Li Zan became more energetic now. He was worried about how to file a report to deceive Bureau Tong and persuade the Municipal Bureau to recognize this serial murder, so that several districts could be linked to launch a blanket search for suspected murder cases.

"Everyone, don't leave yet. Listen to my conjecture. Let's discuss together, cooperate together, solve the case together, and build a harmonious society together. That's what it is. It starts with two murder cases in the suburbs..."

Following Li Zan's eloquent introduction, in addition to the veteran Dongcheng District veterans who were already accustomed to it, the criminal policemen of the city bureau looked confused. They could not imagine that apart from Zhang Xi's difficult case, Li Zan had

There are actually some difficult cases involving suspected serial murders.

How did this come together? Do you all in Dongcheng District like buy one, get one free? Do you all like big scenes? Isn’t there any case that is easy and simple, and it is clear at a glance that it is a vendetta or a murder of love?

After hearing the end, the young detectives did not react. The experienced deputy detectives were already lying on their backs. It only took a few dozen minutes to go from despair to numb acceptance.

What else can he do? Don’t we have to work together to solve the case?

"The above are the cases we are investigating." Li Zan: "Originally there were not enough manpower, but with the full support of the talented Municipal Bureau and the help of the smart, capable, well-judged and experienced colleagues in the detachment, I believe that we will be able to

It will be more than enough for you to handle multiple cases."

Li Zan licked his lips and said kindly like a father: "Deputy Criminal Team, you see that you are a direct relative of the city bureau. Going to work is just like going home. When you go home, talk to your family.

In other words, go back and cooperate with each district to search for suspicious cases. No proof is needed, just leave them to us in Dongcheng District to identify them."

After thinking about it, Li Zan added: "It's all to serve the people."

The Deputy Criminal Team had no expression on his face. Bureau Tong turned his face to one side and drank tea as if he didn't see anything. He was happy to see this happen because he didn't have to type up an application report and it felt good.

Li Zan: "Deputy Criminal Team?"

Deputy Criminal Team: "I will mention it. I can't guarantee whether it will happen or not. This is your guess, Captain Li."

Li Zan smiled and said, "As long as you can mention it."

The two cases have been settled for the time being, and everyone on both sides of the detachment and branch has cheered up, started a high-intensity work mode, acted urgently, launched investigations, and tried their best to deliver answers that satisfy the people before public opinion reaches a boiling point.

Because it was an unexpected accident and serious public opinion, the masses, the media, and provincial departments were all paying attention. Even the central government glanced at the far south. Zhang Xi specifically named Li Zan, and the case was also handed over to Li Zan to handle externally.

, in fact, the city bureau sent several veteran criminal police officers to assist.

At the same time, the higher authorities gave the green light and strictly required all parties to cooperate fully to solve this case perfectly in the shortest and fastest time!

Li Zan, who was burdened with heavy pressures such as a difficult murder case and the expectation of everyone, was actually the person with the least sense of urgency in the bureau. He followed the work step by step, showing no signs of anxiety or any action. He only reviewed some cases in the office.

message.

Chen Jie came to him and asked: "Captain Li, aren't you in a hurry?"

Li Zan turned his pen flexibly and said easily: "The more pressure you are under, the more difficult it is to handle. The more you have to learn to relax yourself. Only when you relax emotionally can you find the threads in the mess."

Chen Jie felt a headache after hearing this. She couldn't relax anyway. She was very anxious and in a bad mood now.

"Boss, is it possible that Zhang Xi's death and the murder of Han Wenwen are involved?"

"I don't know." Li Zan sighed: "I'm really not sure."

Just because you don't know and you can't be sure doesn't mean it's impossible.

Chen Jie heard the implication of Li Zan's words and nodded. She remembered something and said to Li Zan: "By the way, the skull and face restoration has been completed. The technical investigation department is checking the records of missing persons from three years ago. It should be found soon.

The identity of Bones.”

Li Zan: "You are responsible for following up. Remember to pass the results to me when they come out."

Chen Jie: "Okay."

After leaving, Chen Jie went to the Technical Investigation Department and received a WeChat message on the way. The other party asked her if she was free at noon and wanted to invite her to have lunch with her.

She stared at the picture of a bright sun on her WeChat avatar for a long time, then remembered that this person was Fang Mingxu, whom she met in a K bar a month ago.

In the past month, Fang Mingxu only appeared in her circle of friends. Because Chen Jie occasionally saw a psychiatrist to relieve her mood, they met inexplicably, but this was the first time that the other party took the initiative to ask her out.

Considering her busy work schedule, Chen Jie was about to refuse, but suddenly she remembered something, deleted her words of refusal, and changed her words to accept the invitation.
