"What are you doing?!" Liu Xiaofan immediately shook him off.
Guo Fei immediately took another step forward, determined not to let him go away: "For the sake of fairness and justice, you must answer the call here!"
"Are you out of your mind? You want to talk to me about fairness and justice when I answer the phone?!"
"You failed to be fair and impartial when you answered Wei Yunrong's call behind Zihan and me's back!" It turned out that when Liu Xiaofan took out his cell phone, Guo Fei, who had sharp eyes, saw the name of the caller.
"you… "
"Then answer it here and press the hands-free button." To avoid another dispute, Mu Yu interrupted Liu Xiaofan.
Liu Xiaofan hesitated for a moment, but still followed Mu Yu's instructions. After answering the phone, he clicked on the external voice.
"Officer Liu, I have two more clues to report to you. Is it convenient for you to answer them now?" It was Wei Yunrong's voice.
"explain."
In order to allow them to solve the problem better by themselves, and because they were afraid that if there were too many onlookers, someone would take the opportunity to act crazy, not long after Cheng Xiang came over, the security guards persuaded them to a relatively quiet place on the left side of the elevator and walked away. At the same time, he also persuaded the onlookers to leave. There were only five of them here at this time, and everyone was listening to the call, so it was very quiet.
"It's like this. At that time, Hu Fatrou, who was selling meat at the street corner, and Lu Soy Sauce, who ran a grocery store, also had many conflicts with Qian Daqing. Hu Fatrou, in particular, threatened to waste Qian Daqing with a butcher's knife several times. Daqing, if you don’t believe it, you can tell me, I have heard of it, oh, this old man is Weng Kangyi—the one I told you yesterday. The old man’s family lived upstairs with Hu Feirou’s family. As for the specific conflicts that occurred, you might as well ask yourself. They. Hu Fatrou and Ji Soy Sauce both bought new houses and moved there a few years ago. I only know the community where their homes are located, but I don’t know the specific building. However, I have their phone numbers. I edited the phone numbers and community names. I'll send it to you as a text message." Wei Yunrong didn't know that Weng Kangyi had passed away.
Mu Yu, who was on the side, had already taken out his notebook and was quickly taking notes. Seeing Liu Xiaofan glance at him, he immediately made an OK gesture. Then Xiaofan responded to Wei Yunrong: "Okay. Thank you, thank you for your hard work."
"It's not hard at all to be paid." Wei Yunrong chuckled, "Officer Liu, these are two clues. According to our agreement, it is one hundred thousand yuan. It is still the same account as before..."
"Ahem, I remember it. As for the other things, we'll talk about it later. Okay, let's just say this for now. I'm hanging up." Because Guo Fei and Qiao Zihan were there and the call was on speakerphone, Liu Xiaofan hurriedly pretended to cough to interrupt Wei Yunrong. words, and then responded vaguely.
Wei Yunrong didn't want to worry about it, so he immediately shouted loudly: "Officer Liu, you don't want to default on the bill, do you? You..."
Before he could finish saying the word "you", Liu Xiaofan had hung up the phone without any explanation.
Guo Fei immediately sneered and questioned: "Why did you hang up the phone before he finished speaking? Are you afraid that he will say something shameful?"
"We haven't done anything shameful! It's just because we were in a hurry to investigate the case and didn't have time to argue with him." Liu Xiaofan felt a little guilty, because at this time he had vaguely guessed why Guo Fei was so angry. Come and fight with him.
Under the premise of their investigation, it is indeed inappropriate to spend high prices to buy clues. If he was stabbed to Rong Jian or Gu Chaohui, he would definitely be criticized. To be honest, he actually tried to persuade Mu Yu last night, but Mu Yu, who was determined to give Qin Jinhuan some money as punishment, didn't take it seriously. It's just that she didn't know that spending this little money would be a drop in the bucket for Qin Jinhuan. When they met, Qin Jinhuan was happy for her to spend his money, no matter what way it was used.
"Really?" Guo Fei looked unbelieving.
Mu Yu also realized why Guo Fei was angry, and realized that what he did was inappropriate. Just when he was looking for a reasonable explanation, Liu Xiaofan's cell phone rang again. Seeing that it was Wei Yunrong's call again, Liu Xiaofan wanted to hang up. But he was stopped by Guo Fei: "Since the enthusiastic citizen called us, why not listen to what other clues he has to offer?"
"He has already provided three or four useless clues, so I don't bother to pay attention to him."
"Isn't this good?" When he wasn't paying attention, Guo Fei snatched his phone and quickly clicked on the call button and voiceover.
"Hey! You..."
"Sh-"
When Guo Fei signaled everyone to be silent, Wei Yunrong's voice with indignation came over: "I said Officer Liu, what do you mean? Yesterday, we agreed to pay 50,000 yuan for a clue, and you suddenly hung up. Isn’t my phone call an attempt to go back on my word? This is not something a glorious people’s police officer can do! This approach damages the honorable image of the police!”
"I just went back on my word, what happened to you?" Guo Fei said angrily.
"What?! How could you do this?!" Wei Yunrong obviously didn't hear that the voice on the phone was not Liu Xiaofan's, and he was furious. "I told you the clues without paying you because of my trust in you." , but you betrayed my trust by burning bridges! If you don't fulfill your promise, I will provide it to other policemen if I have any clues! To tell you the truth, besides you, there are also a group of policemen who have also approached me. They... "
"They won't steal your clues! Just keep your clues in your stomach to rot!" After speaking, Guo Fei pressed the phone hard and then threw the phone back to Liu Xiaofan.
"You're going too far!" Liu Xiaofan pointed at Guo Fei's nose while holding his cell phone and scolded, "I admit that our method of spending money to solicit clues is inappropriate, but you can't use such despicable means to block others from giving clues. Shall I provide a clue?"
"This man Wei Yunrong is not a good person." Qiao Zihan, who had remained silent, said angrily, "He called us early in the morning and asked us if we wanted any clues about Qian Daqing. Of course we said yes, and then he He told us that he had two very important clues in his hand. If he gave us the clues, we would very likely be able to trace the clues to find the murderer of Qian Daqing. Someone was willing to spend 100,000 yuan to buy these two clues. If we came up with the clues, If he could afford a higher price, he told us these two clues first. When he heard that we couldn't even afford a hundred thousand yuan, he actually laughed at us as paupers and country bumpkins. We guessed that it was the clues that you paid a high price for. , I couldn’t get angry for a while, so I came to see you.”
"Damn it! Isn't this guy too dark? He actually wants to make a fortune!" Liu Xiaofan was no longer angry with Guo Fei at this time and cursed Wei Yunrong.
"It seems that his so-called clues about being rich were just a lie to us! He just wanted to defraud us of our money!" Mu Yu was also a little annoyed.
Cheng Xiang's focus was not here, and he immediately asked Qiao Zihan: "How do you know we live here?"
"We asked Bureau Gu to inquire. We lied to him that we had some trouble investigating the case here and wanted to ask for your help. Bureau Gu told us where you were going."
Just as he was talking, Wei Yunrong called again.
Liu Xiaofan was furious: "This guy still dares to call and ask for money! Let's see if I can't scold him to death!"
Mu Yu stopped him: "Listen to what he says. If you really want money, hang up. Stop scolding. Swearing against such people will only lower our quality."
Liu Xiaofan nodded, answered the call and clicked the voice button again. As soon as the call was connected, he heard Wei Yunrong's sarcastic laughter: "Officer Liu, I'm sorry, I'm a stupid person and I'm not very good at talking. What did you say just now?" If it’s your ears, please don’t worry about the villain.”
"Speak up if you have anything to say."
"Officer Liu, I always feel that not keeping your words will affect the image of the police. Considering that you have already paid me 100,000 yuan, I won't charge you 100,000 yuan for the next two clues. Here you go. For a 50% discount, just give me 50,000 yuan. I will think about it later and see if I can provide you with better clues. All the clues I will provide you with are free. Do you think this is feasible? "
Just as Liu Xiaofan was about to speak, Guo Fei spoke first: "Didn't you say this morning that those two clues would definitely help us find the murderer? If that's true, why should we waste money on Hu Fat Rou and Lu Soy Sauce? clues?"
Wei Yunrong was choked immediately, and Guo Fei added, "Since these two clues are useless, we will give them back to you now, no more."
"What? How can you repay this if you tell me this?!"
Cheng Xiang interrupted angrily: "You've already gotten a hundred thousand yuan, so just be content. If you're so greedy again, I'll take that hundred thousand yuan back with interest!"
Perhaps because he was afraid that he would actually do this, Wei Yunrong hung up the phone as soon as he finished speaking.
"What a greedy person!" Liu Xiaofan put the phone away angrily.
"Isn't this desire seduced by you?" Although Guo Fei's tone was still dissatisfied, he was much more friendly than before.
Mu Yu apologized very sincerely to Guo Fei, Qiao Zihan and Liu Xiaofan: "This is all my fault. It was my willfulness that caused you misunderstandings and added trouble. I'm really sorry."
Afraid that Guo Fei would say ugly words again, Cheng Xiang immediately defended him: "Young lady, I don't blame you for this. You are not wrong. You did this because you wanted to help the bureau solve the case as soon as possible. If you want to blame it, it's Wei Yunrong who is jealous of money. It’s really weird for selfish interests to randomly give us some so-called clues.”
Liu Xiaofan also spoke for her: "We saw through his mind in time and didn't waste any time or energy. On the other hand, you wasted a hundred thousand yuan in vain, so you don't have to say sorry to us."
Mu Yu looked at Yu Qing's eyes guiltily: "You also received a punch, how could you not lose anything?"
"Brother, I'm sorry. I blame you for being too impulsive. I'll treat you to dinner later to apologize." Seeing Cheng Xiang glance at him, Guo Fei felt a little embarrassed. "But don't expect me to treat you to a star-rated hotel. I'm really sorry." I can’t afford it.”
In fact, he had known that Liu Xiaofan would not spend so much money to buy clues, but Mu Yu's status was too special and they did not dare to do anything to her, so they found trouble with Liu Xiaofan. Now seeing that Mu Yu had taken all the responsibility on himself, They no longer had any reason to take it out on Liu Xiaofan, so they apologized.
In fact, Liu Xiaofan had already seen through Guo Fei's thoughts, but he didn't bother to point it out. On the contrary, he cooperated with his words in a grand manner: "Look at what Captain Guo said, it seems that I am not a child who grew up eating food stalls. To be honest, Xing. I’m not used to eating in high-end hotels, but no matter where Captain Guo invites me to dinner, I can’t miss the wine!”
"No problem! But now we have a mission, so we can't drink and get in the way. When we successfully complete the mission one day, I'll be the host, and how about we all come and stay drunk?"
"No problem." Qiao Zihan agreed with a smile.
Liu Xiaofan also made an OK gesture.
"Since there is no need to investigate the clues provided by Wei Yunrong, what should we do now?" Mu Yu interjected to express doubts.
Guo Fei immediately said: "One hundred thousand yuan has been spent, we must investigate!"
Seeing him mention 100,000 yuan again, Mu Yu felt a little embarrassed. Sensing her strange look, Guo Fei quickly explained, "I don't mean anything else. I just want to say that these clues are necessary to investigate. Let's do that. , let’s go sit down in the teahouse over there, I’ll tell you my thoughts, and then we’ll redeploy today’s plan.”
