Section 436 VIPs
"This also explains why the destination she went to on the night of the incident was the Wetland Park. The light was very dark and there were no people at night, so it was very suitable for a tryst."
Zhou Changhao still frowned: "Xiaomi, why did you insist that Gong Xinxia cheated on her? Everyone has times when they encounter urgent matters. What if the relationship between her and Zhang Hao is not the kind of relationship you think, but an emergency situation that must be solved may not be necessary!"
Hu Pingtao shook his head gently and interrupted, "I agree with Xiaomi's inference."
Zhou Changhao turned his head and looked at him, and asked in confusion: "Why?"
Hu Pingtao raised his hand and knocked on the folder on the table: "When Liao Cunxue came to report the case before, he said that Gong Xinxia usually likes to play. When she was recognizing the body in the bureau, Gong Xinxia's father also said that she usually likes to play mahjong. Lao Zhou, think about it, a woman who had just gotten married received a call from a man and hurried out. Regardless of the role Liao Cunxue played in this case, it is very doubtful that Gong Xinxia went out on the night of the incident."
"If there is an urgent matter, we have to discuss it... I mean the normal type, which has nothing to do with affair between men and women. Then you can change the place, why do you have to make an appointment in the wetland park?"
Zhou Changhao insisted on his opinion: "Maybe Gong Xinxia was worried that Liao Cunxue would find out that there was a conflict, so she chose to meet in a secluded place with few people."
Hu Pingtao shook his head and smiled, "You said just now that the reason why Gong Xinxia rushed to the wetland park was because there was an emergency between her and Zhang Hao that had to be solved. In fact, for ordinary people, "urgent matters" are nothing more than borrowing money, working, and patients. You have to consider it in depth, but there is really nothing."
"The people are not the head of state, and it is not our turn to make decisions for war and disaster relief. Borrowing money is an urgent matter, and I can't open it all at once. I'm anxious to use the money, so I must ask for help as soon as possible. In addition, it's work. If something goes wrong, I have to ask someone to help eliminate the adverse effects as soon as possible. In the end, I'm sick. Even if I don't say it, everyone knows the importance."
"The Wetland Park is quite far from Yanhe Community. It takes more than ten minutes to ride an electric bike one-way. Even if Liao Cunxue is worried that he will meet her and Zhang Hao privately, he can change places. Is it necessary to run so far?"
"If it is really an urgent matter that must be resolved as soon as possible, you can just find a place outside the community to discuss it. Why do you have to go to the dark lake? Gong Xinxia is still a woman, and her new wife who has just passed by the door has not been long since. Although she looks average, she is not afraid that Zhang Hao will take the opportunity to push her over? There have been many similar cases before, not one or two."
"So Xiaomi thinks that there is an affair between Gong Xinxia and Zhang Hao, which is completely reasonable."
Zhou Changhao nodded ingenuity and asked, "Boss, then the next direction of our investigation..."
Before he could finish his words, Hu Pingtao made the final decision: "Let's check Zhang Hao first. Nowadays, mobile phone numbers are all real-name. As long as this person is found, the case will basically be revealed."
Zhou Changhao asked again: "Do you still think it's not an accident that Gong Xinxia fell into the water?"
Hu Pingtao nodded and replied: "If there was no Zhang Hao, if Gong Xinxia had not received a call from him on the night of the incident, I would probably think it was an accident. But now it is different. What has definitely happened between Gong Xinxia and Zhang Hao. Then there is Liao Cunxue, his attitude, and the situations provided by Gong Xinxia's father... This case must be different from what we imagined before."
...
Zhou Changhao and Mi Qiunan left the office and were busy.
Hu Pingtao picked up the landline microphone placed on the table and called Wang Xiongjie. After a few polite words, he directly touched the point: "Brother Wang, you have to help me this time."
Wang Xiongjie is smart and knows what's going on at first glance. He smiled on the phone, "Why, there is not enough manpower?"
Hu Pingtao nodded on the phone: "If it is a problem in public security management, I can solve it. After all, my relationship with the street is pretty good, so I can borrow the comprehensive law enforcement brigade. But the criminal investigation is not possible, and this requires professionals to deal with it."
He immediately explained the progress of the current investigation of the case.
Wang Xiongjie's voice on the phone was stuttering: "I know you have difficulties. The problem is that I really can't get out of here now! Otherwise, if you are too busy to do it, seal the case and hand it over to Ding Jian. Let's talk about it when I finish my work."
Hu Pingtao said bluntly: "I know Brother Wang, you are busy. This is how you can just lend me a few people."
Wang Xiongjie half-jokingly said, "How many? Three to nine are considered a few. You have to say an accurate number!"
Hu Pingtao also smiled: "It's just three! It's just one group. I beg you Brother Wang, there's really no one here!"
No matter how much jokes are, Wang Xiongjie is not embarrassed by him: "Let's do this! I'll let Xing Le go to report to you."
"Xing Le?" Hearing this name, Hu Pingtao couldn't help but frown: "Can you change someone?"
Wang Xiongjie sneered on the other end of the phone: "You kid are not kind! You just begged me to help you, but now you are picky. What's wrong with Xing Le? He is such a beautiful girl who sent her to help you with your affairs, but you are not satisfied. How many people here beg me, but I don't want to let her go... I said, what are you thinking in your mind?"
Hu Pingtao explained with a wry smile: "Xing Le used to be with me, but I was afraid..."
Before he could finish his words, Wang Xiongjie interrupted him directly: "If you want to change someone else, I won't send Xing Le over there. But you are different. You are a kid with children, your wife is beautiful and gentle, and you are a safe and steady man. I will definitely feel at ease when Xing Le follows you!"
Hu Pingtao felt that he could not explain it clearly: "Brother Wang, I am trying to investigate the case..."
"I'm also trying to investigate the case." Wang Xiongjie made a decision directly: "Okay, don't say it anymore, it's Xing Le. She took the other two people to report to you later, and you will follow your arrangements. But first, I have to agree on it. I have to keep the people here. They have to go with you for a week in the past, and you have to return the person to me."
Hu Pingtao: "...Okay!"
This is the best result that can be achieved.
...
In the afternoon, Xing Le and others arrived at Eryuan Road Police Station.
There are also men and women who are also newcomers who have just been assigned to the criminal investigation team this year.
Ding Yi is a very capable young man. He is a little short and wears a pair of gold-rimmed glasses. Because of his few strokes of the name, Tan Tao happened to be in the office when he came to report, so he nicknamed him "Asan".
Ding Yi frowned and asked a little aggrievedly: "Director Tan, I am not an Indian, why are you calling me A San?"
Tan Tao smiled and patted his shoulder: "Two strokes of the word "Ting", one stroke of one, what else can you call A San?"
As he said that, he pointed to Zhang Fengyuan who was standing side by side with Ding Yi: "Look at him, I can't give her this nickname no matter what he said!"
Hu Pingtao stood up from the chair and said kindly: "Everyone is walking with him, just make a joke."
Xing Le raised his eyes and glanced at him, snorting coldly: "You are like that, as you talk, you are walking around me again."
Hu Pingtao was a little amused and crying: "I said "Okay", I didn't say about you."
Xing Le curled his lips: "Say it, what do you want us to do?"
Hu Pingtao said seriously: "Let's take action separately. Xing Le, you are responsible for finding all the information about Zhang Hao. Ding Yi, follow Lao Zhou and check all the surveillance videos near the Wetland Park on the day of the incident to see if you can find Zhang Hao."
Finally, he raised his hand and pointed at Zhang Fengyuan: "Xiao Zhang, come with me and go to Gong Xinxia's house to investigate the situation."
As soon as he finished speaking, Xing Le suddenly said, "Fengyuan and I will change. She will check Zhang Hao, I will follow you."
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone present was stunned.
After a long time, Tan Tao asked in confusion: "Why?"
Xing Le's answer was natural: "I used to be Director Hu's partner. He is experienced and can learn a lot from him."
This is a very good reason and cannot be refused.
...
He walked out of the office, went downstairs, entered the parking lot, and got on the electric car. Hu Pingtao took out the car keys to start the engine, and complained to Xing Le in a depressed manner: "How do you talk?"
Xing Le sat in the passenger seat, smiling like a cat who had succeeded in conspiracy: "I just want to follow you, can't?"
Hu Pingtao stopped his hand and looked at her side: "I'm married, my son and daughter can make soy sauce."
Xing Le deliberately made an exaggerated expression: "Look at what you said, it seems like we have a private relationship. We are a colleague and work together well. After hearing what you said, I feel like I'm seducing you?"
Hu Pingtao was speechless.
...
Gong Xinxia’s mother’s house is not far from Yanhe New Village, about two kilometers.
After entering the door, Gong’s father and mother were there, and Gong Xinxia’s younger brother Gong Wei.
Hu Pingtao explained his purpose and asked: "Do you know someone named Zhang Hao?"
"Zhang Hao?" Gong Wei quickly replied: "I know! He is my sister's friend."
Hu Pingtao looked sideways at Xing Le who was opening the notebook next to him and making records. His eyes turned to Gong Wei: "It means your sister is very familiar with Zhang Hao?"
Gong Wei hesitated for a moment: "...It's okay! Actually, my sister met Zhang Hao through my brother-in-law."
"Oh!" Hu Pingtao immediately became interested. This was a new clue: "In other words, Zhang Hao is Liao Cunxue's friend?"
Gong Wei explained: "When my sister got married, I gave her some time, and met Zhang Hao on the side of her new house. My brother-in-law said that he used to work outside, and Zhang Hao went to work with him."
Hu Pingtao narrowed his eyes and asked, "Where do they go to work? When did this happen?"
Gong Wei scratched his head: "I don't know much about this. It should be before getting married to my sister! You have to ask Liao Cunxue for details."
Hu Pingtao asked while thinking, "Why did you say that Zhang Hao is your sister's friend?"
Gong Wei replied without hesitation: "Although my sister met Zhang Hao through Liao Cunxue, my sister and Zhang Hao are quite close to each other and can be together. During this year's May Day, Zhang Hao came to my house for a few days."
Hu Pingtao felt that he had vaguely grasped something critical.
The saying "I have lived at home for a few days" has a different meaning in itself.
If the relationship is not very close, it is impossible to achieve this level.
More importantly, Gong Xinxia is a woman and Zhang Hao is a man.
Men and women can develop into brothers or sisters, but this is just a superficial relationship. More, it is still non-friendly.
"Do you have Zhang Hao's phone number?" Hu Pingtao asked. Zhou Changhao had found Zhang Hao's mobile phone number from the telecommunications side before, but he couldn't get through, and kept reminding him that "the other party is not in the service area."
"Yes." Gong Wei took out his cell phone, called out the address book, pointed to a number and said, "That's it. After my sister had an accident, I thought that Zhang Hao had a good relationship with her, and maybe I knew something, but I would either call him or say he was not in the service area."
After asking a few more questions, Hu Pingtao and Xing Le got up and left.
...
Going downstairs, getting on the electric car. Xing Le looked at Hu Pingtao and started the engine and asked, "Where are you going now?"
"Go to Yanhe New Village and find Liao Cunxue." Hu Pingtao drove onto the road with the steering wheel.
Xing Le asked: "The target or Zhang Hao?"
Hu Pingtao focused his attention and was quite excited in his words: "This trip was not in vain today. I didn't expect to get clues about Zhang Hao from Gong Xinxia's younger brother. Liao Cunxue must have lied before, and he concealed some things."
Xing Le's thinking changes very quickly: "Do you mean Liao Cunxue and Zhang Hao know this?"
Hu Pingtao said "Hmm": "I thought of several possibilities, but there is no evidence yet. No matter what, check Liao Cunxue first and see what he said."
...
Yanhe New Village.
Liao Cunxue's home is decorated in ordinary ways, and the walls and windows are still sticking with eye-catching "囍" characters, but the colors are a little light and no longer bright.
Hu Pingtao and Xing Le sat down on the sofa. He first asked a few irrelevant questions. After Liao Cunxue finished answering, he pretended to say casually: "We have also learned about the situation in your wife's house. According to your father-in-law, do you often quarrel with your wife?"
Liao Cunxue was stunned, his left hand trembled involuntarily, and he tried to calmly and said, "...Arguing...this...this is normal! Only by clamoring can one live, no matter who is like this."
Hu Pingtao looked into his eyes and asked slowly: "I heard you want to buy a house, but your wife doesn't want to?"
Speaking of this, Liao Cunxue's words immediately aroused. He sighed: "Is this my father-in-law told you? Actually, this is not a secret. I really want to buy it because it's worth it!"
"The houses in Yanhe New Village have been rising since they were completed. From the time of delivery to the present, the average price has increased by at least 4,000. Those with vision chose to buy houses and made money. I heard that there was a foreigner who bought fifteen units at one go when the market opened. In less than half a year, he made a lot of money."
