Chapter 13 : The murder case by the river involves a large number of people

This scene reappeared in Luo Sai's mind many times. If this was true, Qi Xuan would have to bear the sin of three lives, and from then on, the guilt and self-blame would follow him like a shadow. He had always wanted to find the murderer and avenge his father. However, facing such a reality, he had no revenge at all. Everything he did now was in vain. What was the point?

Thinking of this, Luo Sai couldn't help but smile bitterly. He rode his bicycle through the streets. He was sober, but his head still hurt. He was awake, but he still felt like he was in a dream.

When he returned to the club, he was ridiculed by Yue Xin and Tang Yingfei.

"You, didn't you say you wanted to quit drinking? Why did you get drunk with Qi Xuan? You are obviously the kidnapper who kidnapped him, but you brazenly went to his house to spend the night. You are making a fool of yourself!"

Yue Xin said a lot of things like a machine gun, which made Tang Yingfei laugh out loud.

"But my shame is not in vain. I finally got some clues." Rossay said, taking out Shen Qiulan's photo from his pocket , " You should remember this face carefully, and you can find Shen Qiulan. A great achievement!"

Tang Yingfei looked at the woman in the photo and frowned. How many years have passed and people have aged, so their appearance must have changed. Just looking at a photo is like finding a needle in a haystack.

Roselle stretched himself and was about to go upstairs to change clothes when he heard noise coming from the hall. When they went out, they saw that it was Zhao Yingtong from the police station who was standing in the hall with two of his men, arguing with the gatekeeper, Uncle Jiang.

"Inspector Zhao? You came early today, it's not open yet." Luo Sai walked over and said with a smile.

Unexpectedly, Uncle Jiang said first , " Boss Luo, he is not here to play, he wants to arrest you and take you to the police station!"

It turned out that after Zhao Yingtong came in just now, he asked Uncle Jiang to find Luo Sai, saying that he was an important suspect in a case and wanted to invite him to the police station to assist in handling the case. Uncle Jiang stopped working as soon as he heard this. Did he just go to the police station? Is it possible for this police station to come out just by saying it? He argued with Zhao Yingtong for a few words and asked them to come up with evidence.

"I'm fine, why am I a suspect?" Rossay smiled in disbelief , " What's going on?"

Zhao Yingtong wiped the sweat on his forehead with a handkerchief and said , " Did you get into a fight with someone at the club the night before yesterday? One of them, Jiang Yuan, died last night. The injury on your neck was caused by him." Bar?"

After hearing this, Luo Sai was stunned for a while, blinked, and after a while he spoke , " Jiang Yuan? Is that the one wearing glasses?"

Indeed, the man with glasses who hit Luo Sai with a wine bottle was named Jiang Yuan. Zhao Yingtong often came to Jasmine Club and had some friendship with Luo Sai, so he came to pick him up in person, hoping that Luo Sai could understand him.

"It's work. I'm in charge of this case. If you have any grudges between you, go to the bureau and tell them. We follow the procedures. It's good for you and me. And Tang Yingfei, please follow us!"

Zhao Yingtong stated his position. Luo Sai was not a nagging person. Anyway, he was not afraid of the shadow, so he and Tang Yingfei followed Zhao Yingtong to the police station.

Arriving at the interrogation room, Rossay finally slowly figured out the cause and effect of the matter.

Early this morning, someone reported that a deceased person was found by the river. Zhao Yingtong, who was on duty, went to investigate and found that the deceased was a male. His identity was found from the briefcase beside him. Zhao Yingtong determined the workplace of the deceased, then found the bank staff on duty to conduct inquiries, and found out that the deceased's name was Jiang Yuan. Therefore, Zhao Yingtong, who was extremely mobile, took advantage of the moonlight and knocked on the door of Jiang Yuan's house. When Jiang Yuan's parents heard that their son had suffered an accident, they lost control of their emotions.

According to the description of Jiang Yuan's parents, Jiang Yuan did not go home after get off work and did not tell them where he was going. He thought he was going to have fun with his friends again. Zhao Yingtong asked Jiang Yuan if he had offended anyone recently, which pointed the finger at the Jasmine Club. Jiang Yuan usually behaves well and has no enemies. The recent incident that made everyone unhappy was that he drank and caused trouble and injured Luo Sai.

In addition, when Tang Yingfei sent Jiang Yuan home, he was too arrogant and told him to take care of his own safety in the future. So Luo Sai and Tang Yingfei became the prime suspects. Later, Zhao Yingtong went to the homes of the two friends in Jiangyuan to ask questions, and got similar answers. They suspected that Roselle was injured, showing kindness on the surface but seeking revenge behind the scenes. The fat man and the short man were filled with hatred for Luo Sai and Tang Yingfei, and they said things that only added insult to injury. Since there were no other clues, Zhao Yingtong could only start with Luo Sai.

"Tell me, where did your conflict start?" Zhao Yingtong asked. A recorder next to him was recording carefully.

Rossay briefly described the dispute that took place in the club that night. He felt very ridiculous in the face of Zhao Yingtong's suspicion. He was injured, but just because of this, he wanted to kill the other party? It was so ridiculous. Rosé kept tapping the table with his hands, sometimes lightly and sometimes heavily, as if he was playing a piece of music rhythmically.

"Did you and Jiang Yuan meet again after the fight?" Zhao Yingtong asked.

"No!"

Zhao Yingtong nodded, his brain spinning rapidly, thinking about the details in the case. Jiang Yuan was discovered by a homeless man on an abandoned fishing boat on the riverside in the early morning. The cause of death was a gunshot wound to the head, and the time of death was probably the night before. His body has been sent to the hospital, and doctors found no other injuries on his body. No murder weapon was found at the crime scene. The pistol was probably taken away by the murderer or thrown directly into the rolling river.

"Where were you and what did you do last night?"

Luo Sai thought about it and felt lucky. Fortunately, he drank with Qi Xuan last night and stayed at Qi's house. Aren't they his best witnesses?

After hearing Luo Sai's reply, Zhao Yingtong squinted at him and asked , " Are you familiar with Qi Xuan?"

"It's okay, just ordinary friends."

"He was kidnapped a few days ago. Do you know this?"

"I know." When Luo Sai heard about the kidnapping, he deliberately set his sights on Zhao Yingtong, with a natural expression and no intention of dodge. In fact, he suddenly felt nervous , " Listen to him, it was Mao Ying who did it. These kittens are really boring. They do these messy things all day long. How can we ordinary citizens live in peace?"

Faced with Luo Sai's complaints, Zhao Yingtong was extremely helpless. And Tang Yingfei stayed at the Jasmine Club the whole night, as many staff members could prove. During the investigation, Zhao Yingtong asked the police officers to take Luo Sai and Tang Yingfei to the temporary detention room first, and wait for him to find out the situation before making arrangements.

Police officer Xiao Zhou wanted to take over Inspector Zhao's worries and took the initiative to go to the club and inquire with Qi's family. But he didn't know that Inspector Zhao was eager to have this opportunity to go to Qi's house and see Qi Mei again. Since the last time he handled the case of Qi Xuan's kidnapping, Zhao Yingtong often thought of Qi Mei's voice and smile. God had arranged such a good opportunity for him, and he couldn't help but feel excited.

His wife has been dead for many years and he has no children. He lives alone, has no worries about food, clothing, housing and transportation, has nothing to worry about, and lives a nourishing life. But in the seemingly free and happy life, it is inevitable that you will also feel lonely and lonely. When you return home, you will lie helplessly on the bed, looking at the stars alone, and you will feel desolate. Fortunately, he got to know Qi Mei. Although the contact time was short, and from Qi Mei's words and deeds, he didn't show any affection for him, and there was even a trace of disgust between her eyebrows. But Zhao Yingtong has never seen anyone. He has to face the ugly people and evil things in the world every day. Qi Mei's little disgust is nothing.

Anyway, he has a crush on Qi Mei, not only because of Qi Mei's beauty, but also because of her aloof energy, which is different and has its own unique charm. It depends on whether he has the ability to control it.

Therefore, Zhao Yingtong sent Xiao Zhou to investigate the authenticity of the alibi provided by Luo Sai and Tang Yingfei, and drove to Wutong Road himself. At the door of Qi's house, I happened to meet Qi Mei carrying a bag and going out.

He honked the horn and parked the car next to Qi Mei.

"Miss Qi, are you going out?" Zhao Yingtong got out of the car, showing a cute and innocent smile.

Seeing Zhao Yingtong, Qi Mei took a quick look and found that the belly of Inspector Zhao in front of her seemed bigger than before. Although a slightly chubby figure can give people a sense of honesty and honesty, in Qi Mei's eyes, there is really nothing attractive about her appearance. And Zhao Yingtong didn't look very smart.

"Why are Detective Zhao here?" Qi Mei asked coldly.

Zhao Yingtong explained his purpose and hoped that Qi Mei could cooperate and help him find out the truth. When Qi Mei heard this, she was absolutely right. That Roselle didn't seem to be a peaceful person. Where was the Jasmine Club? People of all kinds come and go in and out of it every day, from three religions and nine streams, and the fish and dragons are mixed together. It is a place of right and wrong, and it is easy to cause disputes. The Qi family has always been cautious, keeping a low profile and keeping a low profile for generations. What they fear most is causing trouble. Luo Sai had just kidnapped Qi Xuan, and now he was involved in another murder. Moreover, Qi Xuan seemed to care a lot about this new friend. The Qi family had something to do with him. I don't know whether it was a blessing or a curse.

Qi Mei confirmed Luo Sai's statement. He did spend the night at Qi's house because he drank too much and left the next morning.

Zhao Yingtong thought for a while and asked , " Has he been sleeping in the room and never left all night?"

"He lived alone in the guest room, and I don't know if he ever left. But how can Detective Zhao, a drunken man who is unconscious, sober up quickly, sneak out while everyone is sleeping, kill someone, and come back again?"

Qi Mei's words were obviously sarcastic. Zhao Yingtong nodded and said , " Then, do you think he is pretending to be drunk to confuse you?"

"If that's the case, then I think he doesn't need to open a club and become an actor. His acting skills are so magical that ordinary audiences like us will believe him!"
