"No, what I'm actually thinking about is," Zhuang Youjie said after careful consideration, "If the employer alone can rule out the suspicion, has Mr. sir ever encountered the kind of reporter who yells "Catch the thief?"
After he finished speaking, he looked up at Liang Yuanque, and the emotion deep in his eyes that he had finally caught a chance to show his wisdom was completely exposed.
"Ah, if you want to say that..." Liang Yuanque thought about whether to tell the truth or to briefly coax this particularly interesting young master.
But then I thought about it, he is not a child, and he is not a beautiful girl. Why should I coax him when I have nothing to do? It seems that I am unprofessional.
So Liang Yuanque said directly, "Don't you remember that I recognized your identity when we first met?"
Zhuang Youjie thought about it, hey, it was indeed true. At that time, Liang Yuanque said that he had investigated it in advance.
Ah, so that's it, Zhuang Youjie thought to himself, Mr. Liang is Mr. Liang, and he still has real abilities. He originally thought he had caught a loophole in him, but it turned out that he was overthinking it.
"As soon as this case came out, I planned to find a way to continue. After all, I came to Liucheng for the serial murder case," Liang Yuanque said: "I planned to start with the Shen family first, so I quickly investigated Miss Lan’s social connections made it easy to find your fiancé.”
"I found out that you were studying in the provincial capital and had not been back for a long time, so I naturally ruled out your suspicion. Later I found out that you rushed back to Liucheng after receiving the telegram. Before you and I met, I I have already checked to verify that you did come back by the same train that day."
Zhuang Youjie was very surprised when he heard this. Did Liang Yuanque make so many preparations in advance before they met?
"Then if I hadn't come to entrust you with the case, wouldn't your preparation have been in vain?" He had new confusion.
"I'm investigating you just to find out whether the people related to the deceased are suspected. Even if you don't come to me, I will go to Mr. Shen to recommend myself." Liang Yuanque thought as he said it, but in that case, it might not be done now. It went so smoothly, but he actually didn't expect this fate between him and Master Zhuang.
The encounter between people in this world is a wonderful thing in itself.
Not long after they both put down their chopsticks, the waiter from the restaurant came back to collect the lunch boxes. Zhuang Youjie put the meal money in the food box and asked the waiter to take it back together.
Although this is a restaurant owned by my family, freeloading will make the restaurant's management feel bad and cause the cashier to work overtime in vain.
After lunch, Inspector Chang also came back. Liang Yuanque flipped through the files for a while, put them away in the order of the case, and called Zhuang Youjie back to Shen's house.
Although there was no definite evidence to prove it, he still felt that Shen Yuelan's death was closely related to the Shen family, and there were still too many unsolved mysteries in the Shen family. They still needed to return to the Shen family to investigate the case.
When going back, Zhuang Youjie called a rickshaw. It was mid-afternoon and the sun was very hot. After the rickshaw driver asked about their wishes, he took a detour and took a path with more shade.
Walking on a different road than the one he came in the morning, Liang Yuanque actually made some unexpected discoveries. Their car passed a martial arts gym that looked a little deserted, and a character he had temporarily put aside suddenly came to mind. He quickly asked Zhuang Youjie, "Master Zhuang, did Wang Shun from the Shen family study in the martial arts hall here before?"
Hearing this, Zhuang Youjie glanced at the martial arts school for a few times, thought for a while and said, "Although I don't know very well, I guess it's not this one. This one was newly opened in the past few years. It didn't exist when Wang Shun was studying martial arts. He should have stayed at another martial arts gym in Liucheng with a relatively long history."
Liang Yuanque nodded after hearing this. Liucheng is not big and there are not many martial arts schools. There are only two in Liucheng.
Wang Shun, who has studied martial arts in a martial arts school, should have the ability to climb over walls, right?
He learned from the concierge that Wang Shun had returned to his hometown because of illness some time ago, so Liang Yuanque asked Zhuang Youjie, "I have to go to Wang Shun's hometown to investigate."
"Ah?" Zhuang Youjie was stunned for a moment, "Now? Are you going alone or are we two going?"
Liang Yuanque rolled his eyes uncontrollably, "Master, I didn't leave Liucheng when I investigated you."
What he meant was that detectives all have their own secret connections at their disposal, but Zhuang Youjie has never dealt with people like detectives, and has never participated in case investigations before, so naturally he doesn't know this. Liang Yuanque did not know this before When he said that he had investigated himself, he thought that Liang Yuanque was so powerful that he could move back and forth to investigate in a short period of time.
Although Zhuang Youjie didn't understand what Liang Yuanque meant, he was embarrassed to speak when he saw the other party rolling his eyes. He had realized how stupid he was.
Although he is not very clever, his father once taught him to learn to shut up when faced with things he does not understand, so that he will not look so stupid.
Liang Yuanque stopped the rickshaw, got off the car and walked through the alleys. After twists and turns, Zhuang Youjie could no longer find him.
Anyway, he had already asked him to wait where he was, so Zhuang Youjie sat on the rickshaw with his forehead on his hands and waited for him to come back. Since he had just eaten, he stayed outside in the hot weather, even though he and the driver were huddled in the shade. Even though I was there, I still couldn't help but feel drowsy.
When Zhuang Youjie was in a trance, Liang Yuanque came back quietly. Because he was almost asleep, he didn't see where he came back from.
"Did you go check on Wang Shun?" Zhuang Youjie asked him confusedly after he got in the car again.
Although Liang Yuanque didn't say anything when he called for parking, considering that they only talked about Wang Shun, it wasn't difficult to guess his actions.
Liang Yuanque was once again amused by this young master with his unique ideas, and followed his words and said, "Yes, the investigation has been completed."
Zhuang Youjie heard this and complimented him in a low voice.
Although Liang Yuanque rarely had a partner during his many years of handling cases, he was a person who was very good at using power, especially the local power where the case occurred, some low-level beggars or some inconspicuous traffickers. They would all be conquered by him as quickly as possible, and often these people could form a detailed intelligence network in every place, which greatly facilitated Liang Yuanque's work.
Just now, Liang Yuanque went to find a group of beggars he met two days ago, gave them some money, and asked them to go to Wang Shun's hometown.
The same method was used to investigate Zhuang Youjie before. He happened to have handled cases in the provincial capital city where Master Zhuang studied and had infiltrated the "intelligence network" there.
Liang Yuanque is very good at getting to know people, and can chat with people of various identities and personalities, but he rarely stays with anyone for a long time. This is obviously not that others are slowly alienating him, but that he has always been I have been choosing the people around me.
In his understanding, people in the world are divided into two types, those he knows and those he doesn't know. Needless to say, those he doesn't know are also divided into two types: those he knows and those he knows. The latter is usually not much or even almost none.
Because no one can stay with him forever, and many of the people he interacts with are just casual acquaintances who don't know when they will meet next time.
ah? Why don't you think he knows anyone who is useless? He usually wouldn't put this kind of person in the category of "knowing".
The rickshaw quickly ran back to the door of Shen's house. Zhuang Youjie got off the car and paid the rickshaw driver the fare. Just as he was about to knock on the door, the concierge heard their return and hurriedly opened the door to welcome them.
"Oh, Master Zhuang, you are back. Come with me to the front hall. Someone from the banker just came and they have been waiting for you for a long time!"
