When Hongzhou heard this, he also sighed and said helplessly: "It's exactly what you said, after I found out that I had been fooled!
He really asked someone to investigate the other party! If the other party has no background, I will be ready to refuse the bill directly! "
Cheng Shi continued: "Then what did Boss Hong find out?!"
Hongzhou took a deep breath from his cigarette, exhaled the smoke, and then continued: "That man called himself Li Yuanhua, and he was a businessman who came here from other places to prospect for gold. I already believed him.
But in the end, he cheated me by playing a trick, and I became suspicious of him. After all, he was a foreigner, so even if he made a trick, I lost money!
But why did he think that I, a local, would give him money, so I thought he had some deep background, so I had to investigate his background first! "
When Hongzhou said this, Cheng Shi couldn't help but laugh and said, "That's right, but you got nothing in the end because that person disappeared in the end!"
Hongzhou said in surprise: "How did you know?!"
Cheng Shi smiled, threw the cigarette in his hand to the ground, stamped it out, and then said: "It's just speculation!
If you investigate his identity clearly, it means that the other party is not afraid of exposing his identity at all!
If the other party is not afraid of revealing their identity, they will not find you in the end and make you a participant in this case!
The other party should just kill Leon directly!
The murderer probably found you with the IOU written on your gambling table, and he found you at your house at night!
This way you have to agree to the other party’s conditions! Right, Boss Hong? ! "
Hongzhou was taken aback and said a little discouraged: "Yes, the people I sent out to investigate said that after Li Yuanhua disappeared, I didn't care!
I thought the other party had found out that I had a strong foundation in Shanghai and did not dare to ask me for money, so I fled overnight!
I didn’t expect that a few days later, someone would find me at my house while I was sleeping!
He was still holding my IOU. I thought he just wanted money, but the other party asked me to do a favor, which I didn’t want to do! "
Cheng Shi said: "But, you think the other party can set you up to fall into a trap, and come to your bedroom quietly at night!
Naturally, it can kill you easily. You thought about it again and again, and finally had to agree to the conditions proposed by the other party! "
Hongzhou said: "Yes, he asked me to take him to the private room above the theater, where he will stay, and then ask me to go again the next day. I just need to help him pay attention to the situation!"
Cheng Shi nodded and said, "You don't need to say anything. I know all the other situations. Let me ask you, does the murderer have any characteristics?!"
Hongzhou shook his head and said, "That person is so ordinary, he has no obvious features at all!"
After Hong Zhou finished speaking, he suddenly thought of something and said quickly: "That man has a popular face, his height is the height of an ordinary person, and his clothes are ordinary!
However, his shoes are different. I have never seen those kind of shoes before. They seem to be specially customized! "
Cheng Shi said: "What kind of shoes are they?! Do you know the brand?!"
Hongzhou thought for a while, shook his head and said, "I don't know him, but that special pair of shoes didn't match his clothes at all. They looked very awkward, so I took a special look at them!"
Cheng Shi clapped his hands and said with a smile: "Okay, then describe to me the specific characteristics of that shoe!"
When Cheng Shi saw Hongzhou didn't answer, he sighed and shook his head: "Are you worried about your safety?!"
Hongzhou nodded. He was naturally very concerned about his own life.
Cheng Shi comforted: "Don't worry, the murderer doesn't take you seriously at all, otherwise, he will kill you when he leaves!
Although he didn't kill you, mainly because he wanted to buy him time to leave, but because you knew what he looked like!
Although there is no need to silence them, if you don't catch them, you still have this risk. Even if the murderer doesn't kill you, you may become a scapegoat! "
Hong Tao said anxiously: "Okay, I say, I say, please find the murderer quickly, otherwise I'm afraid I will be doomed!"
…………
After Cheng Shi came out, several patrolmen immediately surrounded him. One of them asked thinly: "Cheng Shi, how are you? Has he spoken?"
Cheng Shi nodded: "Well, find someone who can draw characters and ask him to draw the appearance of the murderer based on the description!"
Cheng Guang also came over at this time, smiled and said to the patrolman beside him: "Very good, hurry up and prepare, and try to find this person within two days!"
Cheng Shi shook his head helplessly on the side. After Cheng Guang saw it, he said doubtfully: "What's wrong?!"
Cheng Shi sighed and said, "There is little hope. The other party must be hiding at this time, but it is still useful to send someone to find him!"
Cheng Guang took out a cigarette from his arms and lit it, then said: "Oh, other than this, what else can I do!"
Cheng Shi nodded and said: "Yes, this is the only way. Wait and wait. Also, I feel uncomfortable. I want to go back and take a rest!"
Cheng Guang looked at Cheng Shi with some doubts, and then said: "Okay, if you don't feel well, just go back and rest first, and tell your mother that I will go back later today!"
Cheng Shi nodded slightly: "Then I'll leave first!"
Cheng Guang frowned, wondering what his son was doing, but he didn't ask at this time.
…………
Cheng Shi naturally did not go home. Firstly, he did not know where his current home was, and secondly, he naturally came to find the murderer.
Cheng Shi changed into a long gown when he left. Cheng Shi stood in front of the public affairs office on Xiafei Road (today's Huaihai Middle Road) with a calm expression.
The Public Affairs Bureau is equivalent to the Ministry of Industry Bureau in the public concession and is the highest municipal organization and leadership agency in the French Concession in Shanghai.
The public board of directors is different from the Chinese official system. It consists of a board of directors composed of multiple people, with the chief executive as the top executive director, so it is translated as the public board of directors.
The Board of Directors of the French Concession Public Board is a decision-making advisory body for the French Concession in Shanghai. All directors are members of the French Consulate.
Looking at the people coming and going inside, Cheng Shi was filled with emotion. The people inside came out one by one with arrogant expressions. Of course, there were not only foreigners inside.
There are also quite a few Chinese people. The Chinese people who can enter the Public Directorate are naturally not ordinary people. Of course they have reasons to be proud!
However, those proud expressions looked like a clown in Cheng Shi's eyes!
Cheng Shi found a seat nearby and sat down, observing the people coming and going.
The other party chose to kill the son of a director of the public board of directors, and it was very likely that they themselves did it.
The killer has made it so secretive, so he is naturally scared. The killer will not hide here, but he can still try his luck here.
In front of the public office is a very wide road, a hard road paved with flat stones. Cheng Shi now feels that there are so many rickshaws in Shanghai.
This is what Cheng Shi felt after squatting on the opposite side for an hour, with rickshaws coming and going on a street non-stop!
Cheng Shi didn't know if he could find the clues he wanted, but he had no other way. After all, he didn't have any other clues now.
