Chapter 149
Chapter 149 Crazy Wolf (33)
Just when Ming Shu was called to Xiao Yu’an’s office, the crime team received a call from a woman.
The other party claimed to be “Shang Xiaoyu”, and he was outside the city bureau. There were important clues about Huang Yan’s murder to be provided to the police.
Shang Xiaoyu was the woman Ming Shu noticed outside Huang Yan’s house, and she did the same as Huang Yan’s courier to collect the parasites. She was crowded among a group of residents watching the excitement, and compared with others, she looked extremely nervous. Ming Shu went to her shop and asked about Huang Yan. She insisted from beginning to end that she didn’t know anything. But Ming Shu still left a contact information and told her to call the crime team if she remembered anything.
After many days of suffering, Shang Xiaoyu and her husband finally brought the evidence in their hands to the police.
“We, our family is jealous that Huang Yan’s business is doing well. Most of the courier companies cooperate with her, and only a small part of them put the parcels in our house.” Shang Xiaoyu always bowed his head, embarrassed, “After October this year, we So, I secretly installed a surveillance system outside her home, wanting to take pictures of her embarrassing.”
A video from the day of the crime was playing on the computer on the side. A man wearing a dark green jacket and a peaked cap walked into Huang Yan’s home.
The monitor is installed far away and cannot take pictures of the situation inside the house.
After fast-forwarding, you can see that the man is leaving alone.
The time between the two times happened to be the time of Huang Yan’s death.
Shang Xiaoyu’s face turned pale, “When I first saw this video, I didn’t think there was anything, but the next day, Huang Yan didn’t open the door. I guessed something might be wrong, so I quickly removed the camera.”
Yi Fei asked: “We have found you many times during the investigation by the North City Branch. Why didn’t you tell me?”
“I, we dare not!” Shang Xiaoyu shivered. “That person is obviously the murderer. You haven’t caught the murderer. If I give you the video, what will he do to avenge us? There are children in our family, it is true. Don’t dare to take this risk.”
Yi Fei sighed.
Surveillance captured the murderer, but because the image quality was too poor and the murderer’s face was not photographed, it could not be the key evidence, but at least it was able to rule out many diversions for the police, and once the video was released, the murderer would be jealous. The next two cases are not necessarily will happen.
However, Shang Xiaoyu’s concerns are human nature, and ordinary people are afraid of such things. The detectives can charge themselves, but they cannot ask the masses to make the same choices as themselves.
“Our conscience is disturbed.” Shang Xiaoyu said again: “So after hesitating for so long, I decided to give this video to you.”
In fact, by now, the evidence chain of Chi Yan’s crime is complete, and I have pleaded guilty. This video is no longer important. But Yi Fei still thanked Shang Xiaoyu and his wife.
Ming Shu took the appraisal report issued by Xiao Man and Xing Mu, took Xiao Yu’an’s cup and drank slobber-he was too thirsty. This day, like a war, he didn’t even have time to drink water when he was busy.
Xiao Yuan is repeating the video of Huying’s previous interrogation.
“Chi Yan was indeed the murderer who killed Huang Yan, Li Zhaofeng, and Zhu Linglong. There is no doubt about it.” Ming Shu didn’t quench his thirst after drinking a drink, so he went to pick up another one. “But that doesn’t mean that Huying has no problem. From the first The first time I saw him, I felt that there was something unspeakable about him.”
Xiao Yuan knocked on a pause, “Chi Yan said that Huying did not care about him this year. The so-called’searching’ was just a formality. If the friendship between Huying and Chi Yan only stays on the surface, then it would be no surprise that Huying walked through the scene. But the truth is that Yes, Huying does seem to regard Chi Yan as his best friend. He does not ask why Chi Yan left. It is likely that he has no energy and cannot protect himself.”
Ming Shu drank a little eagerly, and the water dripped on his chin. He put down the cup and wiped it with his hand, “It has something to do with the Fengtu Group. That He Yang is not easy. If it’s just an ordinary nurturing relationship, Huying won’t be good enough. Fear him so much.”
“Look here.” Xiao Yuan turned the display screen and pulled the progress bar back a bit. “Pay attention to the expression of Huying and what he said.”
——Hu Ying said: “You are an unfounded guess!”
——Ming Shu said: “It is precisely because there is a basis that I will interrogate you here. The blood footprints and surveillance pictures directly point the suspect at you.”
——Hu Ying said: “But I didn’t…but I didn’t kill them!”
Xiao Yuan paused again and looked at Ming Shu.
“It’s here!” Ming Shu said, “When I interrogated him, his pause made me feel weird. Huang Yan and the three were not killed by him, and he knew clearly in his heart. What he originally wanted to say was’but I No killing’, this is the normal reaction of a person who has been wronged in that situation, but he didn’t finish the sentence, he himself got stuck, and later added “didn’t kill them”, his whole tone was changed.”
Xiao Yuan said: “The instinctive reaction under excitement is often linked to reality, and Huying can’t say’no murder’.”
“That’s why Huying killed people.” Mingshu leaned against the table. “The sense of loneliness and despair on him is absolutely abnormal. Some of his eyes are very similar to Chi Yan. Brother, you said Huying and He Yang What is the relationship?”
After a while, Xiao Yuan said, “I can’t imagine, we may have been affected by the stereotypes of thinking before.”
Ming Shu looked back, “Huh?”
“When it comes to entertainment stars being supported by rich people, most people think of changing their bodies for resources, contacts, and money.” Xiao Yuan said: “But they may have other ‘playing methods’.”
Ming Shu didn’t think of a reason, so he took a picture of the appraisal report, “Close these three cases first?”
Xiao Yuan nodded, “I’ll meet Hu Ying.”
Knowing that he was framed by a friend, Hu Ying was extremely depressed, as if the vitality to support himself was overdrawn.
Xiao Yuan didn’t invite him to the interrogation room or the inquiry room, but found a small meeting room that no one used.
“I’ll confess everything I can confess. The murderer is not me. What else do you want to ask me?” Hu Ying said weakly, and a few strands of forehead covered his eyes, giving him a decadent beauty.
“I have a few questions, and I want to find the answer from you.” Xiao Yuan put a cup of hot coffee in front of Huying, “After learning that Chi Yan had terminated the contract, did you really just make a few calls to the phone he stopped using? If you don’t get in touch, don’t you bother to get in touch again?”
“I also asked my agent.” Huying stared at the edge of the hot coffee cup, avoiding looking at Xiao Yuan. “The agent explained to me.”
“Did you believe it?” Xiao Yuan said mildly, but there was a certain power. “You used to talk to each other, and Chi disappeared unclearly. You didn’t ask what happened to him?”
“I……”
“You are in the entertainment industry, and you know the strangeness better than I do. Even I think there must be a last resort behind Chi Yan’s sudden termination. Didn’t you think of it?”
Hu Ying was silent, tilted his head slightly, and looked at the ground aside.
“Of course you thought of it.” Xiao Yuan continued: “But there are other things preventing you from exploring.”
Hu Ying shook her head, the muscles in her neck tightened.
“Not long ago, you became the suspect of the police’s key suspicion. All the evidence points to you, and you can’t produce an alibi.” Xiao Yuan said: “Actually, you have an alibi, and you just don’t want to’interrupt’ He Yang.”
Hearing the word “He Yang”, Hu Ying trembled almost reflexively.
“You are very afraid of him.” Xiao Yuan stared at Hu Ying’s face, “Because you don’t want to cause trouble for him, you don’t even want him to come forward to prove your innocence. Then I will make an inference here-you have already understood Chi Yan. Something happened, but all your’should not have’ behaviors may cause trouble to He Yang. So you have to give up Chi Yan.”
Huying raised his head in a panic, trying to deny it, but when he and Xiao Yuan looked at each other, the phrase “no” seemed to be stuck in his throat.
Xiao Yuan gave him half a minute of buffer time, “What are your difficulties, making you even the only friend you have to give up?”
“I…I can’t help it.” Huying squeezed the cup tightly, her nails turning white, “I can’t make trouble for Mr. He.”
Xiao Yuan irritated Hu Ying calmly: “Your relationship is just about getting what you need. Do you have to be afraid of him to this point?”
“Do you think I am willing?” Huying was really excited. “I and Chi Yan have been fighting in this circle for many years. The hint of’Golden Master’ has never been less, but we have not accepted it once! If not! Because of my sister, me, me…”
Xiao Yuan said: “You are in urgent need of life-saving money, and He Yang shows up.”
The leaking model of the lake image suddenly collapsed on its shoulders.
“But what I don’t quite understand is that He Yang is your’funder’, and Fengtu Group has all the money and power. Helping a star is just an effortless task. Why can’t you ask He Yang for a favor? “Xiao Yuan said: “This is also something Chi Yan can’t let go of – he thinks that you can get “Red Dust and Jianghu”, must have a strong backing, so he wants to rely on you, borrow your strength, but you His behavior is contrary to what we imagined. Instead of asking He Yang for a small favor, he gave up Chi Yan because he was afraid of He Yang.”
After a pause, Xiao Yuan said: “This is really puzzling. I have to think that between you and He Yang, there is a more complicated relationship than ordinary nurturing.”
Hu Ying took a sigh of relief and sat stiffly on the chair.
“My team member told me that you gave him a very similar feeling to Chi Yan. And Chi Yan was a murderer who killed three people.” Xiao Yuan said slowly: “You have similar despair in you.”
Hu Ying raised his hands and covered the lower half of his face. His fingertips trembled so much that they might pierce his eyes in the next instant.
“You are in the Criminal Investigation Bureau, and I can protect you.” Xiao Yuan said: “If you want to get out of this despair, tell me what you have experienced.”
Hu Ying lowered her head in slow motion, and stroked her hands into her hair.
For a long time, when he raised his head again, tears were already in his eyes.
“I’m very selfish. Is this enough to answer your question?” Huying said softly, “I have a similar route to Chi Yan. He fell. I happen to have one less competitor. Why should I help him?” “Difficult to share” this kind of statement is nothing more than a lie during the difficult period. Whoever believes is stupid.”
After speaking, Huying stood up, “If there are no other questions, can I leave now?”
Xiao Yuan said: “Leave, go to He Yang?”
Hu Ying stopped in his footsteps.
“You overlooked one thing.” Xiao Yuan turned around, “You are so afraid of causing trouble to He Yang, but this time, did you cause him the biggest trouble?”
Huying’s pupils tightened.
“Chi Yan confessed that he killed the three innocent people in order to avenge you.” Xiao Yuan said: “The details of the case will be announced soon. Chi Yan wants to destroy you with this incident, and you will become the focus. Guess what He Yang is going to do for you? Help you solve this matter?”
Hu Ying could no longer take a step, his eyes full of trepidation.
Xiao Yuan said, “Will he help you, or give up like you give up Chi Yan?”
Hu Ying shook her head vigorously, “Stop talking! Please stop talking!”
Xiao Yuan didn’t stop because of this, “Is there a certain moment when you feel like a walking corpse without a soul, even though you are alive?”
Hu Ying opened her mouth dumbly.
He always suffers from insomnia and wakes up every day before dawn.
He doesn’t like to draw the curtains, and feels that when the curtains cover the windows, the whole bedroom becomes a coffin.
So every time he wakes up, he can see the window glass disguised as a mirror by the night, and the person reflected in the window glass-him.
Looking at his unfamiliar self, he felt that it was not a person, but a corpse being propped up countless times.
He seemed to have died a long time ago, and he is alive now, breathing only a smelly skin.
He has been forcing himself to move forward, for his sister who will pass away at some point. He couldn’t give up if his sister was still alive. One day when his sister really left, he ended all this pain.
But at this moment, he suddenly realized that he couldn’t hold on anymore.
He glanced at Xiao Yuan again, moved hard, and whispered: “I am not a zombie, I am not…”
Xiao Yuan didn’t stop Huying again.
After completing all the formalities, Huying quietly waited for Man Lin to send a car to pick him up.
“Xiao Ju.” Fang Yuanhang said, “Just let him leave like this?”
Xiao Yuan shook his head, “Team Ming has already made arrangements.”
As the car drove to Fangchi Entertainment, Man Lin didn’t know what had happened, and kept chattering beside the lake shadow. Hu Ying didn’t hear a word, and looked at her shadow in the glass dumbly.
“I’m not going back to the company.” Huying said suddenly.
“Alright, I’ll take you home.” Man Lin said, “You have a good rest. How can you go to the police station and it will look like this? Don’t let the paparazzi take pictures.”
Hu Ying closed her eyes, “Brother Lin, if I suddenly broke out a scandal now, what would you say?”
Man Lin was taken aback, “What’s wrong with you? Don’t scare me!”
Hu Ying raised the corners of her lips, and after a while she said, “It’s okay, just talk about it casually.”
The car is parked in a high-end community, where Huying usually lives.
Man Lin was not relieved, and waited a while before leaving after sending him into the house.
The long night has passed, and it is now morning.
The morning light was blocked by clouds, and the sun seemed to never appear again.
Hu Ying stood in front of the window, raised his head, squinted at the dark clouds in the sky, as if countless sand and stones were squeezed into his heart, torturing flesh and blood with every beating of his heart.
The policeman saw through him, and his secret was invisible in front of the policeman.
He is done.
He stood at an intersection, no matter which direction he went, it was a dead end.
He Yang won’t let him go after such a big trouble, and now the police won’t let him go.
Chi Yan…
This year, he walked on thin ice, trembling, knowing that after Chi Yan left Fangchi, he has avoided going deep into the relationship.
Because he dare not.
This sudden truth is like a huge mountain, pushing him into the darkness that can no longer break free.
He hadn’t thought about whether Chi Yan was waiting for his help, and he didn’t dare to think about what happened to Chi Yan. He Yang warned him-don’t cause trouble.
Does helping Chi Yan count as trouble?
He didn’t even dare to think about this question.
A lot of scattered images rushed into my mind, all of which were fragments of living in the company apartment with Chi Yan.
They are all people at the bottom of the pyramid in the entertainment industry. Either they stay at home all day because they don’t have a job, stay up all night as soon as they have a job, and it is common for them to return home dizzy in the middle of the night.
Every year, Chi Yan loves to make **** tea in the kitchen. There were other artists living in the apartment, and Chi Yan made a pot and gave everyone a bowl, saying it was to prevent colds.
He once participated in a commercial performance and went home early in the morning to prepare a bowl of noodles in boiling water. Chi Yan came out of the room lightly and warmed him the cold **** tea.
“When will we be red?” He held his warm bowl and said, “I really want to be red. When it becomes red, there is no need to worry about my sister’s medical expenses.”
“I really want to be popular, too.” Chi Yan said with a smile: “Why is there no one to praise us?”
“If I am red, I will be the first to hold you.” He said.
Chi Yan said: “If I become popular, I will be the first to praise you.”
That easy time is gone forever.
Chi Yan became a murderer because of him, and he was already…
He wants to make it all over.
Death can end all sins.
But sister…
The only thing he can’t worry about is Hu Yao.
The cloud seemed to be thinner by the wind, and the sunlight shone out a bit, falling on his light-colored pupils. He looked at the cloud, his eyes gradually narrowed, and after a long time he turned around and walked inside.
In the cold winter, he took a cold shower.
Standing in the cold water, he felt that his breathing was about to stagnate, and he couldn’t help thinking-it would be good to die like this.
But there was one thing he didn’t do.
After taking a shower, he changed into a dark-gray suit and took out a box from a locked drawer in the bedroom.
He stared at the box for a long time, and finally put it in the black backpack.
A quarter of an hour later, a low-key black car drove out of the garage and drove in the direction of Renxin Hospital.
After the black car, a more ordinary car followed far away.
“Master.” Fang Yuanhang said in the car: “Huying is out, and I am following him now. He seems to be going to Renxin Hospital.”
Ming Shu said, “Don’t lose it, I’ll be there soon.”
Renxin Hospital is as quiet as ever.
Treatments are mostly scheduled in the morning, so there are not many visitors in the morning. Huying entered the hospital building wearing a mask, and walked towards Hu Yao’s ward after registration.
The nurse in charge of Hu Yao already recognized him, and when he saw him coming, she greeted him with a smile and said that the potion had just been hung up and there was no need to change it for a while. If there is any need, just ring the bell.
Hu Ying responded and closed the door of the ward if they were familiar enough to memorize them.
Hu Yao’s condition today is very poor. If it weren’t for Jingui’s drug hanging, she might not have survived this cold winter.
Uncharacteristically, Hu Ying did not call “Sister”, but walked to the hospital bed and looked down at Hu Yao blankly.
Hu Yao was half asleep and half awake, as if she knew that he was coming, her face was slanted in his direction.
The siblings stared at each other in this strange posture. After a while, Hu Ying took off the backpack and took out the box contained in it.
In the box, there is a small bag of white powder.
He sat on the edge of the bed and finally said, “Sister, are you uncomfortable?”
Hu Yao’s throat moved, but there was no sound, and the opened eyes were out of focus, and the world was a large area in her field of vision.
“We don’t insist anymore, okay?” Huying whispered, and I didn’t know whether to tell Hu Yao or to himself, “I originally thought that entering this circle can make a lot of money and can treat you. I’m sick, but I’ve been tossing for so many years, and in the end I still can’t save you.”
A line of tears fell from the corner of Hu Yao’s eyes, and she tremblingly held Hu Ying’s hand, as if she wanted to comfort him.
“Sister, I’m sorry, I can’t walk anymore.” Huying opened the seal of his pocket, “After I leave, no one will come to take care of you again, I…I don’t worry.”
Another line of tears fell, and Hu Yao opened her mouth, as if she was saying, “Xiao Ying.”
“Sister, come with me, okay?” Huying said, “This bag is enough.”
Hu Yao’s expression was painful, but she said in an agitated voice, “Okay, sister will listen to you.”
Hu Ying smiled and took a deep breath, “Sister, are you afraid of pain?”
Hu Yao shook her head.
Hu Ying’s gaze shifted to the white powder, “That…”
Before the voice fell, there was a rush of footsteps outside the door, and the nurse shouted: “Who are you? You can’t enter the ward at will!”
Hu Ying was taken aback and stood up abruptly.
His instant reaction was that He Yang’s people are here!
The door opened with a bang, and Fang Yuanhang was the first to rush in.
“You…” Hu Ying subconsciously protected Hu Yao, and Fang Yuanhang quickly snatched the pocket in his hand.
Fang Yuanhang is too familiar with this white particulate matter, it is highly toxic cyanide!
“Do you want to end your life here? Kill Hu Yao first, then commit suicide?” Ming Shu walked into the ward and looked at Hu Ying sternly.
“I have no choice!” Huying’s handsome face was twisting, “They will kill me!”
Ming Shu said, “Who are they?”
Hu Ying gritted his teeth.
Fang Yuanhang sternly said: “It has reached this point, what are you going to hide?”
“Xiaoying…” Hu Yao was so angry, “Xiaoying, what did you do?”
This faint question almost smashed the lake shadow, tears gushing from his eyes in an instant, he fell to his knees, his head drooping heavily.
“Sister, I did something wrong… I killed someone.”
