Overnight, the patrol room's attitude towards Ling Shu was turned upside down.
When he was first brought in, the people here weren't so rude to him.
Shen Renjie is an old grumpy. Although he has errands on his body, he has room to talk inside and out. He even arranged extra entertainment for him at night.
But after Ling Shu fell asleep, everything changed.
Not only did the interrogator change, but even Shen Renjie's attitude towards him was not as mellow and flexible as before.
It was Shen Renjie who escorted him out.
"Old Shen, the two of us are already friends, let me know, where are we going?"
Shen Renjie's face was cold and he didn't speak.
Ling Shu didn't take it seriously, it was normal for people to be cold and warm, and he had already experienced it over the years.
What's more, Shen Renjie met by chance, of course it was impossible to expect the deep friendship of the other party.
"You think, I can't kill anyone at all, I'll go back and clear my grievances, we're still comrades, you know my brother-in-law is in the city government, but you don't know he's in charge of housing, don't you mean your parents are still living in the old town? In the house, you don't want to change them?"
Shen Renjie didn't intend to pay attention to him at first, but when he heard this, he couldn't help sneering: "Your brother-in-law has been arrested, why are you still helping? How to help, help in prison? Now that you can't protect yourself, don't struggle to death. already."
Ling Shu said earnestly: "Old Shen, you know what the world is now, corruption and bribery can be big or small, my brother-in-law is an honest man, let's not say that he can't do that at all, even if he is implicated and framed, he can be old If you are the chief staff member of the listed government, is there no one above? Think about it, when he comes out, he will definitely do his best to clear the suspicion for me. "
Shen Renjie did not speak, but did not interrupt Ling Shu.
Ling Shu knew that he was listening.
"Our Ling family also has a family background. Although it is not as good as before, there are still three inches of nails in the rotten boat. When the time comes, I will spend some money to bail me out, the big things will be reduced, the small things will be reduced, and I will be a hero again. Let's They are all in Shanghai, and when the time comes, you can’t look up and see you down, it’s convenient for others, and it’s convenient for yourself, don’t you think?”
"This matter was ordered from above, not me."
Shen Renjie finally softened.
Ling Shu: "I know, it's not your fault, but where are we going, and what's your attitude towards me?"
Shen Renjie thought for a while and sighed: "It is said that you are going to be transferred to the central arresting room. I don't know the specifics, so don't think about how to clear it up. It's hard to do! If your family sees you, give them to them. Said to find a relationship quickly, leave the little life behind, don't go back to the execution ground and still don't know how you died!"
He was not trying to intimidate with false words. Ling Shu was now suspected of murder. The murder was not just an ordinary person, but a famous lady in Shanghai. She had a more famous husband. In this case, once the public opinion fermented, Ling Shu would not There is no room for escape.
Although Shen Renjie doesn't look like a murderer to him, but now the sea is flowing, and there are still few criminals with good morals
"Hey, old Shen, I have an idea."
At this time, the two just walked to the door, and the car was already parked there waiting for them.
Shen Renjie's eyes widened in shock after hearing what he said.
"Are you crazy?!"
…
Half an hour later, Shen Renjie felt that it was not Ling Shu who was crazy, but that he was crazy.
The two stood at the door of Ling Shu's house.
"You only have an hour."
Shen Renjie said nervously, "I can't help you for too long. If you don't go back for more than an hour, they will be suspicious!"
Ling Shu comforted: "Don't worry, you go in with me. When the time is up, you will take me away immediately. You will never be implicated. My sister loves me so much, she will definitely help me, and you are indispensable."
If it weren't for this benefit, Shen Renjie wouldn't be able to take the risk and slip away halfway, and promise Ling Shu to take him home to take a look.
Everyone was tacit, and only when Ling Shu was in a hurry to urinate went to relieve it.
Ling Shu knew that doing so was risky.
Since he was named as the murderer, things have slid in an uncontrollable direction.
It was as if someone was holding a net under the hood of his head, tying it tightly to prevent him from leaving.
Brother-in-law's affairs are even more bizarre.
This trip home, he had to go back.
It was Aunt Hong who came to open the door.
After Ling Yao got married, he brought his younger brother and Aunt Hong, an old servant who had been with the Ling family, to live with him.
This old servant watched Ling Yao and his brother grow up, and he was like family to them.
However, as soon as he met the other party, Ling Shu realized that something was wrong.
Aunt Hong's expression was the same as usual.
That's why it's not right.
If Ling Shu's brother-in-law was arrested on suspicion of corruption, and Ling Shu himself was involved in a murder case, the family would have been in chaos by now, and the old servant would not be able to open the door slowly as usual, with a relaxed expression. Not even the slightest bit of nervousness could be found.
The moment he saw him, the old servant's face was already full of surprise.
"You're back! You haven't seen anyone all day and night, where did you go? I didn't ask anyone to bring a letter, the eldest lady was very worried, oh, you have to be more careful later, there are still guests at home, Don't make the eldest lady angry in front of outsiders!"
Aunt Hong babbled, Ling Shu had a headache, especially when she heard her last sentence, she subconsciously asked, "Who's here?"
"Your old classmate, a gentleman named Yue."
The old classmate surnamed Yue, besides Yue Dingtang, who else could there be
The alarm bell rang loudly in Ling Shu's heart.
He suddenly realized that he might have stepped into the trap with one foot, but it was too late to withdraw.
"Little brother?"
Ling Yao walked out from the inside, and his expression changed from surprise and worry to sullen brows in a few seconds.
"Where have you been running all day, you didn't come back all night last night!"
Ling Shu laughed dryly: "I met an old friend, I'm reminiscing about the old days, but I forgot to find someone to come back and explain, I made you worry, sister!"
He looked behind Ling Yao and quickly changed the subject.
"have a guest?"
"It's Dingtang, do you remember? You were very close when you were studying. He even came to eat at home. Not long ago, he came back from studying abroad. We haven't seen you for many years. You must have a lot to talk about."
Ling Yao smiled and led him inside, then sniffed and frowned.
"Why do you have a smell on you?"
Ling Shu: "Maybe I drank a little bit of wine last night, and just made do with a friend for the night."
Ling Yao: "Why did I hear Cheng Si say that you went dancing with the dancer and stayed the night, eh?"
Her eyes moved to Shen Renjie next to Ling Shu.
"Who is this?"
Ling Shu didn't change his face: "This is the brother I met when I was working on an errand. The patrolman in the public concession, the old friend you just told me, went to drink with him last night."
Shen Renjie didn't know whether to smile or put on a serious face, and his expression was a little embarrassing for a while.
"Welcome, the visitor is a guest, please come in." Ling Yao was puzzled, but fortunately he didn't ask more.
While the others were talking, Ling Shu and Shen Renjie had already seen Yue Dingtang, who was sitting on the sofa in the living room reading a newspaper.
The latter was wearing a neat three-piece suit, not all of his hair was combed back, and he had applied a little hair oil, but not much, it was refreshing, with a pair of thin-rimmed glasses on the bridge of his nose, in Ling Shu's view, he looked like a Clothes and beasts, human faces and beast hearts.
When Yue Dingtang heard the movement, he raised his head and smiled at him.
"Ling Shu is back?"
This smile is like seeing an old friend reunited after a long absence. It is extraordinarily cordial and joyful, and there is a little imperceptible excitement in the dullness.
But to Ling Shu, the other party is more like a hunter who waits for a rabbit, and he really bumped into a silly rabbit.
That is Ling Shu himself.
Shen Renjie was dumbfounded, and for the first time found that his brain was not enough.
So that he should have stepped forward to say hello to Yue Dingtang, but now he is stunned.
"Yue, Mr. Yue!"
With Yue Dingtang's appearance, it doesn't look like he came to Ling Jiaxing to inquire about the crime, and he was different from being in the interrogation room.
Shen Renjie didn't know what attitude he should take.
"You're here too." Yue Dingtang nodded at him, with a hint of banter on his face.
Shen Renjie had an idea: "I suddenly remembered that I have something urgent, and I have to rush back, so I won't disturb you guys to catch up!"
Seeing that he was leaving, Ling Yao hurriedly asked, "Will you sit for a while?"
"No, no!" Shen Renjie forced a smile, turned his head to Ling Shu and said, "I'll be waiting for you outside.
He walked in a hurry, and left without greeting.
Ling Yao couldn't stop it, so he could only say: "Little brother, go and see your friend!"
Ling Shu: "No need, he knows his way."
Ling Yao only felt that these two people were strange, and it was difficult to ask more questions in front of Yue Dingtang.
Yue Dingtang smiled and said, "Why, the old classmates haven't seen him for many years, and Ling Shu doesn't seem very happy when he sees me?"
Who can't act, Ling Shu is not smiling.
"How can I be unhappy, I'm too excited, Lao Yue, look at you, you've grown a lot older, I almost didn't recognize it at a glance, how many years have we not seen each other?"
The three words of many years are especially stressed. He transformed all the cordial expressions of greetings to the eighteenth generation of Yue Ding and Tang ancestors into a warm smile on his face, and opened his arms to greet each other.
In front of Ling Yao's face, Yue Dingtang reluctantly got closer, but he was pulled over by Ling Shu and hugged him.
Yue Dingtang: …
Ling Yao was very relieved: "I didn't expect that you haven't seen each other for so many years, and your relationship is still so good!"
Yue Dingtang twitched the corners of his mouth, and finally understood what it meant to shoot himself in the foot.
He froze and let Ling Shu hug him for one second, two seconds, three seconds.
"Don't go too far!" Yue Dingtang couldn't bear it any longer, his voice squeezed out of his teeth.
"Each each other." Ling Shu sneered silently.
"Sister, I'm hungry. Go and help me prepare something to eat. I haven't seen Lao Yue for a long time, so we just reminisce."
After a few seconds, he finally mercifully released Yue Dingtang and turned back to explain Ling Yao.
Ling Yao frowned, disgusting looking at his dirty outfit: "Don't you go take a shower first!"
Yue Dingtang: "It's alright, eldest sister, Ling Shu and I are both old classmates. It's rare to see each other again, so please let us chat a few words first."
Ling Yao glared at Ling Shu, meaning to let him calm down.
"I'm going to prepare lunch for you. Dingtang will stay for lunch today, and I'll ask Aunt Hong to add vegetables!"
"Then it's troublesome, Mrs."
Yue Ding Tang Wenwen was polite, but very happy, and Ling Yao couldn't help but leave with a smile on his face.
Ling Shu clearly saw that his eldest sister had a very good impression of Yue Dingtang, and wished that Yue would stay at home to eat dinner.
Watching Ling Yao's figure turn into the back kitchen, the casual arc of Ling Shu's mouth turned cold.
He looked at Yue Dingtang on the other sofa with a smirk.
"My brother-in-law was arrested on suspicion of corruption and taking bribes. You must have let people deliberately release fake news to scare me?"
"good."
Without Ling Yao and Aunt Hong present, Yue Dingtang didn't bother to pretend, and adjusted to a slightly relaxed posture.
"Did I sleep with your wife, or set fire to your whole family, do you have to live with me?"
Ling Shu is really getting angry. The original lazy and romantic look no longer exists after the prison disaster. The scarf was rubbed in a mess and wrapped around his neck, and the owner wrapped by it was like an angry wolf dog. Get ready to spoil this place.
Yue Dingtang felt that his metaphor was quite vivid, but unfortunately he couldn't say it, otherwise the other party would really rush over and bite.
"If I don't force you like that, you're probably still going around in circles with me now."
Ling Shu sneered: "I don't understand what you mean."
Yue Dingtang: "Your confession is inexhaustible and untrue. At the very least, you have nothing to say."
Ling Shu: "It is your responsibility to solve the case."
Yue Dingtang: "But your life is yours. Although your brother-in-law is fine, but you bought someone from the patrol house to go home and absconded without permission. What kind of crime do you think you are guilty of?"
Seeing that Ling Shu didn't speak, he added: "You know it yourself, all the evidence in the case now points in a direction that is not good for you. If you want to clear the suspicion, you have to cooperate with me. , this is not only good for Du Yuning, but also for yourself."
The two looked at each other in silence.
Can you trust him
Ling Shu had a huge question in his heart.
Many years ago, his classmate years with Yue Dingtang started with a fight and ended with a cold war. It was really not pleasant.
Therefore, when he saw that the other party participated in the arrest and interrogation, it was difficult for Ling Shu not to associate the surname Yue with retaliation.
It is difficult to change a given impression.
But right now, he seems to have no choice.
"I suspect,"
Ling Shu finally spoke slowly.
"Du Yuning didn't die at all."
The author has something to say: Ling Yao: This is how old classmates should be. When they meet each other, they forget their enmity and enmity. Come and laugh.
Yue Dingtang: Haha.
Ling Shu: Haha.
