The call was short-lived and ended in a smashed call from Mudra.
No matter who Mu Zhuo was calling, the person on the other end was obviously very alert and didn't give Mu Zhuo a chance to say much.
Of course, they knew each other very well that the person on the other end of the phone could only be Li Jingtian.
Verifying this matter is also very simple, Chao Dynasty quickly checked the call records, and then nodded to them.
Xing Conglian put down his earphones and said to him, "Consultant Lin, the current situation is a bit ridiculous. We have confirmed the criminal facts of Li Jingtian and Mu Zhuo, but there is no evidence to convict them. You said, what should we do? Is it good?"
Lin Chen turned his head and looked at the banner on the booth from a distance. The two hugging cartoon heads seemed to be laughing at him. He turned his head and asked Xing Conglian, "How many years can I be sentenced for a false accusation?"
"If serious consequences are caused, it shall be sentenced to fixed-term imprisonment of not less than three years but not more than ten years." Xing Conglian replied.
"It seems a little too light."
"Indeed." Xing Cong paused for a while and asked, "Consultant Lin has any ideas?"
"Just as Captain Xing said, let's crucify Li Jingtian."
After he finished saying that, Lu Xu just came running from the lawn angrily, before anyone could say anything: "Mr. Police Officer, you must teach this little slut Mu Zhuo a good lesson and imprison him for ten years. Eight years is the best, let those people in prison bloom his grass!"
Lin Chen rarely agrees to such a thing, but hearing Lu Xu's request, although he frowned, he rarely nodded.
To convict Li Jingtian and Mu Zhuo, it is obviously not enough just to be full of blood or hatred. Lin Chen began to analyze the information revealed by Mu Zhuo's phone call. Although the conversation between Mu Zhuo and Li Jingtian was disgusting, it was almost them. Investigate the most important clues that have been obtained so far.
First of all, there is no doubt that Song Shengsheng was wrongfully imprisoned.
Secondly, Li Jingtian did inhumanely rape Xu Ran in the process of recruiting prostitutes, which is beyond doubt.
The most important thing is that they are alive and well, and in that phone call, Mu Zhuo also revealed that there may be such a thing as key evidence.
But the problem is, they don't know what the key evidence is that makes Mudrow nervous.
Lin Chen looked at the time at the bottom of the Dynasty notebook, and before he knew it, they and Xing Conglian started to pay attention to the time frequently. Will choose to call and question Li Jingtian.
The pressure he put on Mu Zhuo was about Song Shengsheng, then, what Mu Zhuo was worried about could only be about the evidence of the Song Shengsheng case, but if the Song Shengsheng case was an unjustified case, why should Mu Zhuo worry about the evidence being exposed? , the wrongful case is nothing but perjury at best, so what exactly is that
Lin Chen thought of this and found that there were more people around him. He looked at Lu Xu who was naturally sitting beside them, and then at Xing Conglian.
Xing Conglian understood and said to Lu Xu, "Don't Manager Li go back to work?"
Lu Xu coughed twice, his face flushed red: "I'm sorry, I'm arrogant, you police are handling the case, how come I'm an outsider inside."
Lu Xu slapped himself lightly, his eyes began to wander again, and his face became bitter: "Captain Xing, I want to go back, but you see, I have given all the company's cash cows to solve the case. Offended, going back is also a dead word."
"Then resign. With Mr. Lu's ability, he won't even be able to find a job." Xing Conglian said.
"Hey, it's as simple as that. You don't know how powerful Royal No. 1 and CA are. If I go back like this, I might be directly sunk into Jiang." Lu Xu continued to plead.
"Then what is Mr. Lu thinking?" Xing Cong Lian asked with a smile, "Let me collect the body for you, or take care of your family?"
"Captain Xing, don't make fun of me."
Suddenly, Xing Conglian said in a calm tone: "Lu Xu, I don't have time to play games with you, since you know very well that you have only two ways to go, don't talk nonsense, tell me whether you want to go back and die, or continue to play with him. Police cooperation?"
"Of course I cooperated with the police!" Lu Xu almost didn't kowtow to Xing Conglian.
"Then explain clearly the inside story of CA Company and Royal No. 1, and try to be a tainted witness?"
"This... I'm just a little bastard, but I must know everything and say everything!"
"Lu Xu, you're boring like this. You can get a high position in the CA company, is it really because you're just a pimp?" Xing Conglian asked very sharply.
Lu Xu's face turned pale in an instant. In fact, Xing Zonglian never gave him a chance to choose.
"I took a look at the file. Before you organized prostitution, you were in prison for robbery. You robbed a backpack and broke the other party's camera. If I guessed correctly, the object of your robbery should be someone. Reporter, he has some evidence against a certain artist of CA company, as Lu Xu, your identity has always been responsible for handling some shameful things for CA company with shameful means, right?" Xing Conglian Youyou said, "So, Mr. Lu, have you ever committed a murder?"
Lu Xu was already sweating profusely. Even if Xing Conglian pressed him against the window before, he was still glib after he recovered. Now, he can't say a word.
How to describe the current scene? It seems that the hunter cast the net, and after the prey got in, he dragged the net bag forward for a long distance, and finally pointed the shotgun at the head of the prey, which caught people off guard. There was no idea of resistance.
"What exactly do you want?" Finally, Lu Xu asked.
Xing Conglian lit a cigarette and handed it over: "Give me some clues, Mr. Lu, help us kill Li Jingtian. If Li Jingtian can't go to prison, trust me, you will not be better off."
"I... I told you to perjury, but you don't want to... "
"Look Lu Xu, the biggest difference between people like us and Li Jingtian, Muzhuo and even you is that we are still in awe, you don't believe that there are gods three feet above your head, but I do, so it's shameful to see people. things that I dare not do.”
Lu Xu's head was already lowered, and Lin Chen could no longer see his expression. However, Lin Chen thought that people like Lu Xu probably wouldn't wake up because of Xing Conglian's words. At most, he was thinking about whether it was worthwhile to cooperate with Xing Conglian.
But as the unhurried hunter said, he actually had no choice.
"You want the evidence of Li Jingtian's rape of Xu Ran. I really don't have it. I can only say that Royal No. 1 and CA are more terrifying than you think." Lu Xu still lowered his head, his voice was rare "But I just heard Officer Lin mention Song Shengsheng's name, you are actually late, if you had found me at this time nine years ago, maybe you could have saved something, but now, really everything is gone. late."
"Tell me what's going on."
Lu Xu picked up the cigarette handed by Xing Conglian, took a sharp breath, and slowly opened a small corner of this whole monstrous conspiracy.
As Xing Conglian said, nine years ago, Lu Xu was just a small "cleaner" in the "CA" company. What he usually did most was to teach the disobedient trainees from above, or to attack them. Rats were put to death by reporters of artists under CA company.
As for the real inside story of Song Shengsheng's case, a little guy like him couldn't get in touch at all, but at that time, the news of Song Shengsheng's rape case was overwhelming. As a cleaning officer, he only felt some strange policies within the company, which were different from the current situation. The situation of CA company's efforts to protect Li Jingtian was different. At that time, CA company directly gave up the opportunity to control public opinion for Song Shengsheng. They did not even have a lawyer to appeal to Song Sheng, and instead promoted the image of Mu Zhuo as a strong and unyielding idol singer.
The company's attitude towards Song Shengsheng seems to be throwing away some worthless garbage. From the incident to the actual sentence, Song Shengsheng didn't even have the opportunity to defend himself in front of the media.
After talking about a lot of foreshadowing, Lu Xu ruthlessly extinguished the cigarette butt on the lawn, Lin Chen knew that the main event was coming.
"Then what?" Xing Conglian asked.
"A week or so after the incident, the company sent us to the scene of the crime one day," Lu Xu said.
"What are you going to do?"
"I don't know..." Lu Xu took a deep breath, "At that time, I was mainly responsible for letting out the air, and it wasn't me who did the work."
"So, are you going to erase some evidence or find something?" Lin Chen asked.
Lu Xu nodded, then shook his head again: "I really don't know."
"Who is working?" Xing Conglian asked decisively.
"Old lame man, it's my brother, dead."
Hearing the news of the death of the key witness, Xing Conglian was not at all depressed. He asked again, "When your brother came out of the crime scene, did you say anything or take anything?"
Lu Xu looked up at the sky and narrowed his eyes, as if recalling something.
"My brother brought a big bag in at the time. When he came out, the bag was full. It did seem to contain a lot of things, but he didn't show it to me."
"Can you tell what's inside?"
Lu Xu continued to shake his head, his expression did not seem to be fake.
"Okay." Xing Conglian stood up from the ground and said, "Then let's go, Mr. Lu?"
"Xing... Captain Xing..." Lu Xu didn't know why, "Where are we going?"
"Of course I went to the crime scene nine years ago."
[two]
After listening to Lu Xu's words, until he got back into the car, Lin Chen recalled how he felt when he learned that Song Shengsheng was accused of sexually assaulting Mu Zhuo.
He doesn't seem to have too much ups and downs. For the onlookers like him, there are major news every day, and the sexual assault case is only one of them. Compared with the flooding in a certain area or an armed conflict in a certain area, Song Shengsheng's case wasn't even a big deal.
But although the case wasn't that big of a deal, he was surrounded by news about Song Shengsheng every day at that time. Even those around him who didn't like to talk about gossip would talk about the new developments in Song Shengsheng's case in their spare time.
Some people with a strong sense of justice will angrily rebuke Song Shengsheng as a beast, and they want to tear Song Shengsheng apart; while those bored people who don't have much sense of justice will discuss Mu Zhuo's recent explosion of Song Shengsheng and what new position he has done.
Lin Chen thought that those conversations, discussions, and anger were far away from him. He thought that he should have forgotten what happened at that time, but as they got closer and closer to the behind-the-scenes truth about the Song Shengsheng case, those voices suddenly disappeared. clear up.
Every sentence is very clear.
He even clearly remembered what he said himself: this rape case was boring, but the social effects it caused were very interesting.
Now that I think about it, he is actually no different from every onlooker. They are all watching the show and think they are outsiders, and this matter has nothing to do with them, so they can judge these things arbitrarily without fear.
Fearlessness is the most terrifying.
In Song Shengsheng's case, the only people who felt heartbroken were probably Song Shengsheng's fans, and Xu Ran was just an ordinary member of countless heartbroken fans.
In the materials compiled by Dynasty, Lin Chen also saw that Song Shengsheng's member forum was still running, and some people clocked in every day, looking forward to the day when the idol was released after serving his sentence.
Of course, some of those people, like Xu Ran, hoped that their idol would one day be reconciled. This was a hopeless prayer, but suddenly one day, it became possible because of some accidental coincidence.
Lin Chen thought, everything in this world doesn't make sense at all, not all thoughts must have an echo, but it's still good to keep faith.
Thinking of the photos of the bed that Xu Ran had to keep until the end, and Song Shengsheng's unrestrained and unrestrained smile, Lin Chen suddenly realized that he had read so much information about Song Shengsheng, but he didn't know where this person was now. He then asked, "So, how is Song Shengsheng doing now?"
The young man sitting in the back seat chewing fruit candy answered his question: "Song Shengsheng got his sentence reduced last year and was released from prison..."
"and then?"
"Then I don't know where he is." Wang Chao shook his head, typed a line of text, and then turned the screen over, "It's strange to say that, after Song Shengsheng was released from prison, there was no record, and the house was not rented by social security. I didn’t pay, and there was no movement in the bank card, maybe because I felt ashamed and I was afraid of being discovered by others, so I chose to keep it secret.”
On the screen was a photo taken by Song Shengsheng when he was released from prison. Looking at that photo, a strange and familiar feeling flashed in Lin Chen's heart.
Although Song Shengsheng, who spent eight years in prison, can't see any of the appearance of the year compared to the rock-and-roll youth who was number one in the world a few years ago. Like that old man who is about to die, as if there is still a gust of wind, the flame of his life will be extinguished.
Thinking of the dynasty saying that Song Shengsheng had no social records after he was released from prison, Lin Chen even suspected that he might no longer be in this world.
But anyway, please stick with it for another 6 hours.
…
Lu Xu's car stopped at the entrance of a high-end community. The scene of the sexual assault case was in Song Shengsheng's house.
According to Dynasty information, Song Shengsheng's parents died, and his property has never changed hands in his own name. That is to say, although nine years have passed, the scene of this case is likely to remain the same as it was nine years ago. The appearance of Brother Lu Xu after he left.
Unless, Song Shengsheng came back here after being released from prison.
Xing Conglian took the lock-picking measure again, and Lin Chen opened the door with some small hopes. Sure enough, not all hopes could come true. Song Shengsheng had indeed never returned.
When the door was opened, there was an old and decadent smell, and the air was dirty and musty.
Song Shengsheng's house was full of dust, and every step on it seemed to throw up smoke and dust, making it impossible to breathe.
As soon as Dynasty entered the door, he couldn't help rushing to the window to open the curtains and open the window to the maximum.
Facing the incoming light, Lin Chen also walked to the window and looked around the whole living room.
The living environment can best reflect a person's personality.
Although the furnishings in Song Shengsheng's home have been searched by the police at first glance, the utensils are crooked, the furniture is disorganized, and there are sometimes fluorescent tags on the walls and floors, which are probably to remind the collection of fingerprints or footprints, but slowly wipe these traces. After the removal, Song Shengsheng's home was not as messy as it seemed on the surface.
It doesn't even look like the home of a bohemian rock teen.
The floor is the color of logs, there are not many dark decorations or iron art in the living room, there is no graffiti on the walls, the furnishings are soft and low-key, there is a guitar in the corner, and there is a thick stack of DVDs next to the TV. Lin Chen I walked over and glanced at the video disc category, and found that most of them were cartoons or science fiction movies. Ignoring the situation where those video discs were scattered all over the floor, in fact, Song Shengsheng should be a person who does not have much requirements for life.
For example, he would choose to use the photo wall as the sofa background decoration instead of the exotic paintings that fringe artists like. Or, each of his DVDs was bought and stacked randomly, and Lin Chen did not find it around the TV cabinet. Any dedicated DVD storage box.
Looking at everything in front of him, Lin Chen can completely imagine how Song Shengsheng took off his jacket at will after returning home, went to the refrigerator to get a bottle of beer with bare feet, and then sat in front of the TV and watched cartoons at will.
He doesn't care too much about the reputation of cartoons, but for things he likes, he is willing to watch dozens of times without getting bored at all.
Lin Chen took out an obviously older DVD case, turned the disc over, and there were many deep or shallow scratches on the back.
It seems that this film should be Song Shengsheng's love.
