After leaving the stadium, he returned to Tianhe City first. After parking the car in the garage, he left Tianhe City through the back door, hailed a taxi and went straight to Lily Night Market.
During the day, Lily Night Market is deserted. There are quite a few cars in the parking lot next to it. After searching inside with his peripheral vision for a long time, he found the black Lavida. He familiarly found the key stuck on the chassis under the driver's seat and drove away.
In the evening, the setting sun is like a flowing fire, constantly jumping and burning on the undulating river.
Yu Guang changed into a pair of thick-rimmed glasses and wore a black peaked cap with the brim a little low. He sat in the black Lavida and looked at the gate of Xinhe High School diagonally across the street, munching on bread while lost in thought. I don’t know what I’m thinking about.
Not long after, as a bell rang, the entrance of Xinhe High School gradually became lively. Students wearing red and white school uniforms filed out one by one, and then left laughing.
After waiting for a long time, I finally saw the familiar car.
He started the car and followed quietly.
In the evening, the streets are full of traffic and constant flow. The plane trees on both sides of the road, under the reflection of the setting sun, every green leaf seems to be dyed with a golden edge.
Dust dances in the air, and sparrows fly among the shadows of the trees.
Today is a really nice weather.
Xu Mingzhi glanced at the sunset outside the window, sighed, and planned to pack up and get off work. He hadn't had a meal with his family in almost half a month.
Unexpectedly, as soon as I got up, a familiar person came to the door: "Captain Xu, Bureau Huang is looking for you."
"Okay, I'll be there right away." Xu Mingzhi put back the bag he just picked up, and then went out to the director's office. He vaguely knew why Huang Hongwei was looking for him at this time.
In the office, Huang Hongwei was sitting behind his desk and sending WeChat messages on his mobile phone. After hearing a muffled sound, he put down his mobile phone and shouted: "Come in."
Xu Mingzhi walked in and Huang Hongwei looked at him with no expression on his face.
"Did you go out this morning?" Huang Hongwei asked.
Xu Mingzhi lowered his eyes slightly. In fact, he had never liked Huang Hongwei's way of talking in a roundabout way rather than going straight to the topic.
"Well, I went to the Mid-Levels Golf Club to find Fang Kehui." Xu Mingzhi took the initiative to confess.
Huang Hongwei was a little displeased by his direct approach. He frowned and said, "You know who he is."
"It's just a normal visit." Xu Mingzhi explained.
Huang Hongwei disagreed and scolded: "Fang Kehui is not an ordinary person, you should be more cautious."
How else to be cautious? Xu Mingzhi retorted silently in his mind. Fang Kehui's identity was unusual, but he was just visiting normally. He didn't force or reveal his identity and go looking for her in a big way. He was very cautious! Could it be that just because Fang Kehui's identity is unusual, his case will not be investigated?
However, Xu Mingzhi did not say these words after all. He did not want to have a conflict with Huang Hongwei at this moment, let alone waste time on this kind of thing. He just hoped that this conversation would end quickly so that he could return as soon as possible. Home.
"I know, I will pay attention to it in the future." Xu Mingzhi said with his head lowered.
But obviously Huang Hongwei didn't want to let him go so easily.
"How is Jin Jiaojiao's case related to Fang Kehui? Have you found any clues?" he asked.
Xu Mingzhi said after careful consideration: "During our previous visit, someone mentioned that they had seen Jin Jiaojiao and Fang Kehui together. So, I thought maybe Fang Kehui knew some information about Jin Jiaojiao that we didn't find out. "
He didn't mention his speculations and suspicions. With Huang Hongwei's character, he would probably be even more angry if he knew that he went to Fang Kehui because of these baseless speculations.
However, although Huang Hongwei was not more angry, he still felt that it was ridiculous for him to go to Fang Kehui for this matter. He looked at Xu Mingzhi and sighed: "Who is Fang Kehui? The chairman of one of the top 100 companies in the country and a listed group! He is a famous figure across the country. You said you were talking to someone like this today, in case it was leaked out If there is news, it will definitely be a news headline. Those who write news, no matter what the truth is, they only want to see if there is a hot spot. One is the chairman of a listed group, and the other is a young and beautiful woman who died a tragic death. If you put them together, think about it for yourself, what will be the consequences? If you really have some key clues related to Fang Kehui, then you go find it, and I support it. But you don’t have it now. You just heard people say that Fang Kehui may You know this Jin Jiaojiao, and you rush to find her, aren't you just doing something random?"
Xu Mingzhi lowered his eyelids and listened silently without refuting.
Seeing him like this, Huang Hongwei felt like his fist was hitting cotton. After sighing helplessly, he asked him again: "How did you know that Fang Kehui was at the Mid-Levels Stadium?"
Xu Mingzhi replied: "I asked someone to inquire about it."
Huang Hongwei stared at him and said: "This is the best! I know that you will use some unconventional methods when investigating cases. I have never told you before, but you must know that Fang Kehui is extraordinary, so no matter what you do It's best to follow the rules. Otherwise, if you offend Fang Kehui, I may not be able to protect you!"
Xu Mingzhi endured his emotions and hummed softly.
Seeing him like this, Huang Hongwei didn't want to say more and waved his hand to indicate that he could leave.
Xu Mingzhi did not move. He looked up at Huang Hongwei and asked, "How did you know that I went to find Fang Kehui? He went to you?"
Huang Hongwei nodded: "He didn't say anything to you, but he was quite interested in you. However, Fang Kehui is a smart person. If he really didn't have any problem with you coming to the door today, he wouldn't have let me know about it. Are you right?"
Xu Mingzhi and Huang Hongwei have the same view on this point.
So, was Fang Kehui's dissatisfaction because he felt displeased with his rash visit, or was it out of some kind of worry?
Xu Mingzhi recalled his brief meeting with Fang Kehui in the morning, and he felt that the latter possibility was higher.
The relationship between Fang Kehui and Jin Jiaojiao should not be simple. Maybe Jin Jiaojiao's mysterious boyfriend is Fang Kehui.
As a news figure who usually has a bright and positive image, he should be very worried that one day the glorious image he has worked so hard to build will collapse!
But it is still difficult to determine whether Jin Jiaojiao's death has anything to do with him.
Xu Mingzhi was so absorbed in thinking about this that he completely forgot that there was Huang Hongwei sitting across from him, who had not yet completely calmed down.
The latter slammed the table, and the crisp sound pulled Xu Mingzhi out of his thoughts.
"I'm talking to you, why are you distracted!" Huang Hongwei stared at the general in front of him, feeling that the fire in his heart that had just been suppressed surged up again.
Xu Mingzhi came to his senses and felt sorry for the first time since entering the door.
He touched his nose in embarrassment and said, "I haven't slept much in the past two days. I'm a little sleepy."
When Huang Hongwei heard this, the fire he had just started suddenly lost its power. After glaring at him, he said: "Okay, go back and rest quickly. Don't work overtime today."
Xu Mingzhi nodded obediently and was about to leave when Huang Hongwei stopped him again.
"I heard from Xiaomei that Jin Jiaojiao's parents thought she committed suicide, right?" Huang Hongwei looked at him and asked.
This little beauty! After Xu Mingzhi slandered, he nodded and said, "I did say that. But later I changed my mind and insisted that we give an explanation, saying that good people are gone in our Yuehu City, and our public security department must be responsible."
Huang Hongwei couldn't help but feel a headache when he heard this, and said: "Send someone to take a closer look. Don't make trouble in the next two days."
"Well, we arranged to go to the Yuehu Hotel, where Lao Wang is watching." Xu Mingzhi replied.
Huang Hongwei nodded to express his satisfaction, and then asked: "Then there is always a reason why they thought Jin Jiaojiao committed suicide at first, right?"
Xu Mingzhi was a little hesitant, but he couldn't hide the matter even if he wanted to. Huang Hongwei would know about it just by asking anyone in his group. So, he nodded and said: "Two months before Jin Jiaojiao's accident, Jin Jiaojiao's parents forced Jin Jiaojiao to give them one million. But Jin Jiaojiao finally gave them half a million, Then she lost contact with them. After that, Jin Jiaojiao’s brother came to see her, but it is said that he didn’t see anyone.”
After hearing this, Huang Hongwei began to ponder, and after a moment, he said: "Jin Jiaojiao's parents must know something, you can ask carefully. Don't drag on this case for too long. If it's time to commit suicide, commit suicide. Don't trust your intuition too much. Sometimes your intuition is the same." It will be wrong, do you understand?”
"Okay." Xu Mingzhi looked away from him and responded perfunctorily.
Huang Hongwei didn't bother to argue with him and waved him off.
Xu Mingzhi left quickly. After returning to his office, he opened the window, leaned against the window, and smoked a cigarette. While smoking, Huang Hongwei's last words kept looping back and forth in his mind.
After finishing his cigarette, Xu Mingzhi picked up his cell phone, found Yu Guang's cell phone number that he had called once before, and dialed it.
In the busy traffic flow, Yu Guang was steering the steering wheel to pass two slowing vehicles. He chased the Audi in front and rushed out of the stop line before the yellow light turned red.
At this time, the mobile phone thrown on the passenger seat suddenly vibrated.
I glanced out of the corner of my eye and saw a series of numbers on the caller ID, but I didn't intend to answer it. Unexpectedly, after vibrating for a while, the phone finally stopped, and within a minute it started vibrating again. When I looked out of the corner of my eye, it was still the same number.
There happened to be another red light, and the Audi in front stopped.
Out of the corner of his eye, he stopped the car, leaned over to take the phone, and pressed answer.
"Who?" he asked.
"I am Xu Mingzhi." The voice was slightly hoarse and low, revealing a bit of negativity and decadence.
Looking ahead from the corner of his eye, he saw that the red light still had eight seconds left.
"What's the matter?" He put the phone aside and turned on the speakerphone.
"Are you free later? I'll treat you to dinner." As soon as Xu Mingzhi's voice fell, the red light turned green and the traffic began to surge again.
The Audi car in the next lane had already crossed the stop line, and his foot on the accelerator began to exert a little force as he glanced out of the corner of his eye. He no longer had the intention to think about why Xu Mingzhi suddenly called, and casually replied: "I'm not free." After that, without giving Xu Mingzhi a chance to speak again, he reached out and hung up the phone.
Unexpectedly, after a while, the phone started vibrating again.
After glancing at it from the corner of his eye, he didn't answer.
After vibrating unwillingly for a while, the phone finally went silent.
More than twenty minutes later, the Audi drove into a new community-Wanheyuan. This was a place that he had never seen from the corner of his eye in seven years.
Has he moved?
Yu Guang couldn't get the car in, so he could only park the car in a nearby parking space with doubts. Then when the security guard wasn't paying attention, he followed a young mother with her child in.
Wanheyuan is a community where people and vehicles are separated, so out of the corner of my eye I went directly to the underground parking lot. The parking lot was very large, and it took me a while to find the Audi car out of the corner of my eye.
The car was parked in parking space No. 178, with a corridor entrance behind it.
Out of the corner of his eye, he followed the entrance to the elevator hall and took the elevator to the first floor. Then he took out his mobile phone and dialed 114.
"Hello, I am in the underground parking lot of Wanheyuan, Huayuan Road, Shangcheng District. There is a car blocking the road. Please ask him to come down and move the car. The license plate number is: Jiang B7A368."
Yu Guang hung up the phone and lit a cigarette. Just after taking two puffs of cigarette, I saw another elevator moving. First we went from the 12th floor to the 16th floor, and then went down from the 16th floor. It was dinner time and there were not many people taking the elevator. The elevator goes straight to the first negative floor.
When the elevator stopped, I just finished smoking a cigarette. After Yu Guang pressed the cigarette butt into the sand above the trash can, he walked to the elevator. After pressing the up button, another elevator opened. Out of the corner of his eye, he walked in and pressed the 17th floor button.
After the elevator reached the 17th floor, he got out of the elevator out of the corner of his eye. After glancing at the situation in the corridor, he turned around and walked to the trash can next to the elevator and lit another cigarette.
Almost halfway through smoking this cigarette, the elevator that had been stopped at minus one started to go up.
After glancing at it from the corner of his eye, he turned and walked into the fire escape next to him, followed the stairs to the 16th floor, and then stood at the door, looking in the direction of the elevator through the crack in the door.
A few seconds later, there was only a ding sound, and a middle-aged man in a white shirt walked out of the elevator, then turned right and walked down the corridor to the eastmost house. When passing by the fire escape, from the corner of my eye, I could clearly see the displeasure on the man's face through the crack in the door.
I stared at the man from the corner of his eye after he entered 1601, then returned to the 17th floor, went down to the first floor through the elevator, walked around the community, and roughly figured out the layout of the entire community before leaving.
Back in the car, I touched my hungry stomach with my peripheral vision, and suddenly thought of Xu Mingzhi. So, after hesitating for a moment, Yu Guang pulled out Xu Mingzhi's phone number and dialed it.
The phone rang for a long time without being picked up. Yu Guang was about to give up when the call suddenly came through.
Xu Mingzhi's tired voice came over the noisy wind from the other end of the phone: "Are you free?"
Yu Guang asked directly without apology: "Where to eat?"
Xu Mingzhi thought for a while and said, "How about Lily Night Market?"
Yu Guang frowned and said: "It's too far, how about West Market Street?"
"Okay." Xu Mingzhi agreed.
"Let's meet at the entrance on the east side of West Market Street later."
After the two agreed on a meeting place, they hung up the phone.
