The car was parked on the outskirts of Wan City, outside a construction site under development.
Du Jing wanted to let Zhou Luoyang continue to sleep in the car, but when he closed the door, he woke him up.
Zhou Luoyang yawned and looked at Du Jing sleepily, with a little irritability in his eyes. Du Jing had to make a "silence" gesture, giving up the plan to go to the meeting alone, and took Zhou Luoyang around the construction site.
"How do you know it's here?" Zhou Luoyang found that he had too many questions.
Du Jing replied, "News."
"This is a project developed by your company?" Zhou Luoyang asked.
Du Jing replied, "Do you want to buy it? I'll give you a 20% discount."
Zhou Luoyang said: "There is still a 20% discount on the unfinished building, why don't you grab it."
Du Jing was a little surprised: "You all know?"
Zhou Luoyang replied: "Look at this environment image."
Rows of workers' dormitories renovated with shipping containers have no lights on, and carts are lying on the side.
Du Jing didn't dare to take the elevator on the construction site, fearing that the sound would be disturbing, he walked up the concrete stairs poured inside the scaffolding. All the sounds were silent, the wind was whistling, and it was raining lightly.
"Yu Jianqiang owns 16 percent of Fumao Real Estate," Du Jing whispered, "I suspect that he is related to the two murders... this way."
Zhou Luoyang did not ask Du Jing why he wanted to investigate Yu Jianqiang. The current information was enough for him to judge many things: Du Jing may be working as an undercover agent in Yu Jianqiang's company to collect some important information.
"Which two?" Zhou Luoyang asked.
Du Jing said: "The first case was the suicide of the person he married. Nineteen years ago, he made a fortune on the assets of his father-in-law and married the daughter of the owner of a waste collection center."
"I heard it," Zhou Luoyang replied, "the 'big brother' in his mouth."
"After nine years of marriage, the original wife committed suicide due to depression and taking a lot of sleeping pills," Du Jing said. "He inherited the marital property."
"Um."
Du Jing stretched out his hand and held Zhou Luoyang with his ungloved left hand, carefully walking up the stairs without guardrails, looking up, and judging Yu Jianqiang's trace based on the weak skylight at night.
"After getting the capital of my father-in-law, I slowly made a fortune. In the policy trend, I started a real estate business with two partners. There are many unclean places in the company's accounts. After that, there was a problem with capital turnover, and it was urgent to go public and start financing. But financing The goal is inconsistent with the concept of one of the partners named Wang Ke, Wang Ke knows many secrets about the accounts, and Yu Jianqiang admits it and wisely suspends the listing."
"But six months later, at the beginning of last year, Wang Ke took care of a lover and rented a suite in Dongshan District. He was approached by the lover's boyfriend, the two sides started to fight, and Wang Ke was strangled to death on the spot."
Zhou Luoyang: "Do you suspect that Yu Jianqiang arranged all this?"
Du Jing avoided answering: "After Wang Ke's death, Yu Jianqiang restarted the financing and listing plan."
"What floor is it?"
"It's still early," Du Jing looked up at the roof and replied, "If you're tired, take a break, there's still a lot of time."
"Where's the perpetrator?" Zhou Luoyang asked, leaning against a square concrete pillar.
"It ran away," Du Jing said. "The last time I got the news, I went to Papua New Guinea, but I couldn't catch it. The body was hidden in the refrigerator of the rental house, and it took more than a month to find it."
Zhou Luoyang said: "This is unreasonable. How could such an important position as a company director be discovered after a month of disappearance?"
Du Jing ripped apart a little green gauze on the scaffolding with his fingers and looked out, and replied, "Wang Ke has seldom been involved in the company's affairs in the later period. His mobile phone sent messages to the company and his family. In theory, Yu Jianqiang didn't find it, but it was barely reasonable, but in fact it was a matter of opinion."
Zhou Luoyang: "So you suspect that he killed his own wife, and then killed a partner."
Du Jing said: "These two partners were both descendants of his father-in-law. This is indeed something he did."
"Why did you take over this case?" Zhou Luoyang asked, "Because he had a depressed wife more than ten years ago?"
Du Jing didn't answer, but in the darkness, Zhou Luoyang could feel that he was hesitating.
"Go on when you're done resting."
Finally, Du Jing said.
The roof of the unfinished building has not been capped, and the rain is falling. Zhou Luoyang was panting up the stairs on the twenty-sixth floor when he was pulled by Du Jing's strong hand. The two hid on the twenty-sixth and twenty-seventh floors. between the stairs.
Yu Jianqiang has arrived.
Zhou Luoyang looked up through the gap between the planks, and Du Jing waved his hand gently.
"Don't do anything." Du Jingji whispered, knelt down on one knee, put one arm around Zhou Luoyang's shoulder, took out the recorder, and opened it.
Zhou Luoyang sat cross-legged on the ground.
"Don't say anything?" Du Jing approached Zhou Luoyang's ear, his breath was very close.
Zhou Luoyang indicated that you are not recording? Du Jing replied, "I can erase it when I go back."
Zhou Luoyang waved his hand gently. He still had a lot of things to ask, but he knew that Du Jing didn't want to hide it from himself. In fact, Zhou Luoyang was very happy to meet him again after a long absence. Three years later, he has been more restrained than before. There is no other reason. Du Jing's mind is very sensitive. If he comes again, Zhou Luoyang may scare him away.
"I'm about to fall asleep," Du Jing said, "say something to refresh my mind."
Zhou Luoyang only said one sentence: "When you come back this time, will you still leave?"
This question was really refreshing, and Zhou Luoyang could even feel that Du Jing's hand on his shoulder was obviously tight.
"You want me not to go?" Du Jing said.
"I always hope so." Zhou Luoyang replied.
However, before Du Jing could respond, footsteps sounded again, and the blackmailer finally came.
Du Jing pressed on Zhou Luoyang's shoulder and quickly dodged behind another pillar. Two men came, but they didn't find their tracks. They went up the stairs one after another from Zhou Luoyang's head to reach the top floor of the twenty-seventh floor.
Zhou Luoyang called and glanced at it. It was from Le Yao. He hung up the phone, knowing that it was a critical moment.
Du Jing put away the recorder, hid in the darkness, and went up to the uncapped rooftop on the twenty-seventh floor.
"This is the last stroke." Yu Jianqiang's hood was pulled up, blocking his face, with his gym bag at his feet. He took a deep breath and said in the rain, "Where's the stuff?"
The leading man took out an envelope, Yu Jianqiang took it, opened the envelope, took out a USB flash drive and glanced at it.
"The money is in the bag." Yu Jianqiang replied, and was about to turn around and go downstairs, but another man blocked the stairs.
At first the man said, "Don't rush to leave, Mr. Yu can talk a few words?"
Yu Jianqiang said, "Go back and tell your boss. If you want it again, everyone will die."
"Look at yourself," the man said with a smile. "Where does it look like the CEO of a listed company? We are also under orders to smoke one?"
With that said, the man took out the cigarette and handed it to Yu Jianqiang. Yu Jianqiang had not smoked for a long time, but he still took it.
The man himself did not smoke, and threw the empty cigarette case and matches on the ground.
Yu Jianqiang took two sips and suddenly said, "I didn't kill Wang Kezhen."
"That little car model was introduced by you," the man said. "You already knew that he was dead."
Yu Jianqiang's defense was tight and he said, "I really don't know."
The man said lightly, "Then why didn't you go to the police?"
"I said I don't know!" Yu Jianqiang said angrily, "What is my relationship with him? Can I do this?"
The man stepped aside, touched his head, and said thoughtfully, "Besides this record, he also talked to other people about you, would you like to see it?"
Yu Jianqiang suddenly became nervous again, the man smiled and said, "Don't be nervous, we don't need money, we always talk about it, and you have already got a lot of it. This record is a gift."
With that said, the man took out another plastic folder and waved it towards Yu Jianqiang.
Yu Jianqiang said vigilantly, "With whom?"
"With your wife," the man said, "ten years ago."
Yu Jianqiang: "… "
The man seemed to be quite interested and said, "Brother, you have such a shameless hobby, and you have a wide range of fields, even the brothers who made a fortune together."
Yu Jianqiang walked to the man, stretched out his hand, and the man at the entrance of the stairs came over to prevent Yu Jianqiang from robbing him, but the man waved his hand to indicate that it was okay, and said, "We have to keep the record for emergencies."
Yu Jianqiang was about to explode with anger. Ever since he was targeted by this group of people, he has been blackmailed endlessly. Wang Ke looked at it as if he had become a ghost, following him lingeringly.
"I didn't kill people." Yu Jianqiang gasped, violently grabbing the folder, but the man was polite, took out his mobile phone, and illuminated him, Yu Jianqiang's face changed when he saw it - it was the content of the text message ten years ago, Did you even find this
"Wang Ke didn't slander you, did he?" the man said seriously, "I heard that you found a little boyfriend today?"
Yu Jianqiang raised his head, his eyes filled with fear. But the next moment, the man said: "Okay, finally confirmed."
When the words fell, Yu Jianqiang suddenly felt the danger. Maybe it was the murderous intent in the man's eyes, or maybe it was the intuition of life and death.
He stepped back abruptly, but bumped into another man behind him, and then the man locked his arm, took a step forward, held his shoulders, and dragged him to the edge of the rooftop!
Yu Jianqiang: "Save..."
"Goodbye." The man said cleanly.
Yu Jianqiang's pupils suddenly dilated, and he leaned out of the roof, facing the concrete floor below the twenty-seventh floor.
Zhou Luoyang paid attention when he heard about him, but he didn't expect the change to happen so quickly!
But Du Jing's reaction was quicker than his. He suddenly appeared from behind the concrete room on the rooftop, stepped on the rain, slipped, stretched his legs and hooked, and the two suddenly lost their balance. I never expected that there were still people here!
Yu Jianqiang turned over and almost fell, but clinging to the edge, he turned over.
A man immediately said: "There are still people!"
"Come on!" the leading man shouted.
However, Du Jing pressed the ground with one hand, kicked him suddenly, kicked the leader with one foot, Yu Jianqiang hugged the man from behind, pushed him away, rushed forward, grabbed the other man, and gave him a kick!
Zhou Luoyang rushed to the top floor, and Du Jing said, "Go back!"
"Du Jing?!" Yu Jianqiang exclaimed in shock.
Yu Jianqiang rushed forward, picked up his bag, waved it out, and swept away the gym bag with 600,000 cash in it. As soon as Zhou Luoyang went upstairs, he heard a scream, and he didn't have time to see what happened. He slammed his shoulders and fell off the rooftop, screaming in fear.
At that moment, Zhou Luoyang's blood seemed to freeze, and Du Jing immediately grabbed Zhou Luoyang and took him aside.
Yu Jianqiang staggered, grabbing the bag full of cash, and then there was a "bang" downstairs.
Zhou Luoyang: "..."
The four people on the rooftop were quiet at the same time, and the attendant who came here slowly backed away, and then staggered away from the stairs.
The three of them didn't catch up, so what if they caught up
Yu Jianqiang's voice trembled: "He... fell to his death?"
Du Jing didn't answer, standing in the rain, like a ghost, Zhou Luoyang hid behind Du Jing, full of thoughts: dead? ! What should we do now
This was the first time in his life that he had witnessed the scene of a murder with his own eyes. The chill shrouded his whole body in an instant. Every pore and every inch of skin felt the attack of fear that followed before death. Luoyang's collar dripped, making him shudder.
"Just now... Who pushed him?" Yu Jianqiang's voice trembled uncontrollably.
"You," Du Jing picked up the plastic folder on the ground, stuffed it into Yu Jianqiang's arms, patted him on the shoulder, and replied, "You pushed him out."
Yu Jianqiang said: "He was standing on the side just now, and I... accidentally bumped him." Then he reacted instantly: "Who else? The one behind you, who are you? Come out and let me see? Du Jing, you How come?"
"You'll die if I don't come," Du Jing replied indifferently, "Didn't you see that they wanted to push you down just now?"
Yu Jianqiang finally regained his senses and panted, "When did you come here? Why didn't I find you? You... Who are you?"
Zhou Luoyang replied, "Me."
Du Jing glanced at Zhou Luoyang, thought for a while, and said, "He thinks that you have a disaster tonight, let me go back to the company to see you."
Zhou Luoyang thought to himself: Hey! Can you be serious
The moment Yu Jianqiang saw Zhou Luoyang, the whole person seemed to be paralyzed, kneeling on the ground, his hair was soaked.
Du Jing said lightly: "We just came, we didn't see or hear anything, we left."
"Xiao Du," Yu Jianqiang said, "wait...wait."
"The rain will run down the stairs and wash away the footprints," Du Jing said. "Stop taking the stairs and take the elevator down."
Yu Jianqiang took a deep breath and tried his best to calm down. Du Jing glanced at the empty cigarette case and matchbox on the ground, pressed the construction site elevator with his gloved right hand, took off his suit jacket, spread it on the ground, and stood up with Zhou Luoyang.
Yu Jianqiang looked at Du Jing, but Du Jing still looked indifferent, Zhou Luoyang looked at Yu Jianqiang, and then at Du Jing.
The elevator kept going down.
"Mr. Yu," Du Jing said, "I will take a day off tomorrow."
"Okay." Yu Jianqiang said, "You... rest at home for a few days, and I will arrange for you to go abroad?"
"No," Du Jing said lightly, "I didn't push people down."
"I will find a solution immediately." Yu Jianqiang replied.
Yu Jianqiang's mind was full of thoughts, and his mind was full of what the blackmailers had done. He didn't even notice that Du Jing's calmness was a bit unreasonable, which violated his usual assistant status.
"Go and see?" Zhou Luoyang asked.
When the elevator reached the first floor, the ground was full of mud and water, and workers' footprints were everywhere. The man who fell to his death was twenty meters away.
"Don't go," Du Jing said, holding Zhou Luoyang's hand all the time, "there is blood on the ground, and it's easy to leave footprints in the past."
Naturally, this was for Yu Jianqiang to listen to, but Du Jing was really overthinking it. At this time, Yu Jianqiang was given courage, and he didn't dare to check it rashly.
Yu Jianqiang quickly put away the plastic folder and asked, "Did you drive?"
"Stopped outside the construction site, far away." Du Jing said politely, "Where's Mr. Yu?"
"Go back in my car?"
Yu Jianqiang has become a frightened bird, as if at this moment Du Jing has become the boss, and he is the follower.
"No need." Du Jing said, "Mr. Yu, good night."
They walked two streets, and when Zhou Luoyang got into the co-pilot, he began to gasp violently.
"Scared?" Du Jing started the car, turned his head, glanced at Zhou Luoyang, took off his gloves, put on the gear, and touched Zhou Luoyang's forehead.
"Go to the police?" Zhou Luoyang gasped for a while and replied.
"Don't go," Du Jing said, "I didn't kill people."
Zhou Luoyang said: "There is joint responsibility for this!"
Du Jing lowered his hair and said, "Someone will take care of the aftermath."
Zhou Luoyang turned his head and glanced at the glowing screen on Du Jing's mobile phone. When he saw that the chat contact was "Boss", Du Jing only sent two words: "Sleep?"
Zhou Luoyang thought to himself: Du Jing must be organized.
"But only the three of us were present at the time!" Zhou Luoyang said, "Is there any evidence? It's useless for me to be a witness."
Du Jing took out the recorder and showed it to Zhou Luoyang, raising his eyebrows.
Zhou Luoyang: "…"
Du Jing turned off the recorder and said, "Yu Jianqiang himself admitted it."
Zhou Luoyang was still suspicious, but suddenly turned his head and asked, "Have you ever killed someone?"
"No." Du Jing said politely, driving the car out of the suburbs, "Note, we didn't kill anyone tonight."
"Why are you so calm?" Zhou Luoyang said in disbelief, as if he had met a completely different Du Jing, but thinking about it carefully, it seemed that Du Jing was the same at the beginning.
Du Jing drove the car attentively, and Zhou Luoyang said, "Fingerprints, footprints... You handled the crime scene too carefully. A little calm..."
Zhou Luoyang wanted to say, "You are so calm that I am a little scared", but he thought about it and didn't say it.
"You're by your side," Du Jing said, "I can't help but stay calm."
Zhou Luoyang: "Where did you learn it?"
Du Jing Ziruo replied: "One training class, I only learned for three months, I am learning now and selling now, I am laughing."
Zhou Luoyang: "…"
At this time, a call suddenly came from the car. Du Jing motioned to Zhou Luoyang not to speak, and answered the bluetooth speaker. There was a calm middle-aged voice over there.
"What?" the man said.
Du Jing said: "I got the things in the safe, and Yu Jianqiang killed people on the construction site."
"Tell me what happened."
Du Jing drove the car and repeated the whole thing. The process was very methodical. The man listened halfway and interrupted: "Is there only you in the car?"
Du Jingmian said without changing his face, "Yes." Then he started by ambushing Yu Jianqiang and finished the whole process.
It just said, "I know."
Du Jing said: "I collect things in the old place. Please handle the murder case. I will take a leave tomorrow."
"Why are you asking for leave?" the other end of the phone said, "Go back and monitor Yu Jianqiang."
"Sleep," Du Jing said, "I haven't slept for three days."
He didn't say anything else and hung up the phone. Zhou Luoyang was in a very complicated mood. As the car drove into the city, the rain stopped at 5:20 in the morning. Du Jing rolled down the car window, and threw the document bag Zhou Luoyang took out of the safe while driving.
"What about now?" Zhou Luoyang asked.
"Send you home." Du Jing replied.
Zhou Luoyang said, "Come to my house and sleep with you for a while."
Du Jing didn't answer, Zhou Luoyang asked again, "Where do you live?"
"The dormitory arranged by the company." Du Jing replied casually.
"live alone?"
"Have a roommate, little boy."
Zhou Luoyang didn't ask any further questions, Du Jing thought for a moment, and then said, "It's a bit like you back then." After making a gesture, he added: "Just a little bit, then a little bit."
"Which point?"
"The point at the end of the month that money is always not enough."
