Putting down the phone, Jiang Chengyi walked to the window and blew the cold wind for a while, until he calmed down, and then returned to the interrogation room with the equally excited Yu Zheng.
After sitting down, Jiang Chengyi took out the recording pen and played the recording again in front of Cheng Zhou.
[Jiang Chengyi, let's play a game, if you can find Zheng Xiaowen within 24 hours, I will tell you everything you want to know. 】
He stared at Cheng Zhou: "This is the condition you set, right?"
Cheng Zhou raised his eyebrows, and his eyes became brighter.
Jiang Chengyi looked at his watch: "It's 6:55 in the morning. Five minutes ago, our colleagues found Zheng Xiaowen and Wen Peng alive in Shuilongtan—"
In the first few seconds, Cheng Zhou didn't seem to understand the meaning of these words, and his expression was slightly stiff. When he reacted, the smile on his face seemed to be wiped away by an invisible rag, leaving only a pair of dark eyes.
"I'm sorry." Jiang Chengyi threw the recorder back on the table and said word by word, "Cheng Zhou, the game is over."
After Lu Yan called Lao Qin, although she was still concerned about Jiang Chengyi's situation, because she could not contact him for the time being, she could only wait for news at home.
Putting down the phone, she went to the cloakroom to change clothes.
As early as two days ago, she moved her belongings to Jiang Chengyi's master bedroom one after another, and took out the clothes one by one from the suitcase and hung them in the cloakroom.
When changing clothes, she thought to herself that if the murderer was sure Cheng Zhou, then she should be able to go out in peace soon. When Jiang Chengyi gave an accurate answer, the first thing she did was to go to Nanshan Lane to get more clothes. , so as not to go back and forth just to change and wash those few clothes.
Putting on her coat, she went to the restaurant for dinner.
Sister Liu had already made breakfast, and the driver was there. The two had already learned from Jiang Chengyi that someone was following Lu Yan recently, and they did not dare to leave on their own until they were notified by Jiang Chengyi.
While eating breakfast, Lu Yan's phone rang.
It's Tang Jie.
"Lu Yan, watch TV." The tone was very excited.
Lu Yan hurriedly put down the bowl, wiped her mouth with a tissue, and went to the living room to turn on the TV.
There are still overwhelming news about Zheng Xiaowen, but unlike before, the atmosphere of tension and oppression has been swept away, replaced by a screen full of excitement and joy.
The background of a certain station is an old factory. The reporter is struggling to gain a foothold in the crowded crowd. Holding the microphone, he reports hoarsely. When speaking, spittle stars are faintly seen splashing, and his expression is excited.
[At 6:55 in the morning, this is Xingwen Express. You can see that behind the reporter is the No. 2 Plastic Factory near Runwang Road. It was here that Zheng Xiaowen and Director Wen Peng were successfully rescued. The two have not yet regained consciousness. It is reported that , Before being discovered by the police, they were dumped in the well behind the factory responsible for discharging sewage. This well was renovated by the sanitation department, and now the bottom is connected to the urban drainage system. Every 6:50 in the morning, it will be used for Tons of sewage passed through the well. Fortunately, the police found the two victims in time five minutes ago. If it was five minutes later, the consequences would be unimaginable. 】
There was a clamor behind the reporter: "Please let it go."
The crowd automatically separated to both sides, and two stretchers were carried out from the inside by medical staff.
Needless to say, one of them was Zheng Xiaowen, and the camera swayed slightly and quickly moved closer. It's a pity that in order to protect the privacy of the parties, Zheng Xiaowen's head has already been covered with a coat by the police.
Lu Yan stared at the screen, unable to move her eyes for a long time, until this moment, her heart that had been hanging all night did she land firmly on the ground.
On the phone, Tang Jie saw that Lu Yan didn't speak for a long time, and shouted, "Hey, Lu Yan, have you read the news, say something."
Only then did Lu Yan think of Tang Jie: "I see, have you been paying attention to this matter?"
When he spoke, his tone was much more relaxed.
"Of course, Wen Peng and Zheng Xiaowen are good friends with our Dazhong. From yesterday to now, Dazhong has been answering the phone non-stop, and the circle has exploded. Because of this, Dazhong also slept three times last night. Hours, before dawn, I was woken up again. It was not until I read the news just now and learned that the two of them were okay, and the big bell stopped a little. By the way, I heard that Jiang Chengyi was in charge of this case, then you know who the murderer is. Who, why did that person kidnap Zheng Xiaowen and Wen Peng?"
As of this morning, the police have not released specific information about the suspect, and even the media has been kept in the dark, let alone the general public.
Lu Yan said vaguely: "I don't know who the murderer is either. The police should announce the news in two days. Anyway, the murderer failed. Now Zheng Xiaowen and Wen Peng have been rescued."
"That's right." Tang Jie laughed, "You Jiang Chengyi, you are strong enough, how about you, are you still bored at home? When can you come out and go shopping together?"
"Come on." Lu Yan walked back to the restaurant, opened the floor-to-ceiling windows, and went to the terrace to breathe in the fresh air. "As long as I can go out, I'll call you right away."
On a winter morning, the morning fog has not yet dissipated, the sun rises later than usual, the morning glow is bright and the sky is clear, it can be predicted that today will be a sunny day.
Leaning on the railing, she completely forgot about the cold, and only remembered a sentence she read in a book: "When things are too big, there are often no shadows, such as the sky and the sea."
At this moment, she also had this feeling when she looked far into the distance. As far as her eyes could see, the sky was smooth and blue, not even a thin white cloud could be seen, and there was no shadow at all.
While she was in a trance, a voice suddenly came from the restaurant, she tilted her head to recognize it for a while, and hurried back to the house.
"Where's Lu Yan?" Jiang Chengyi seemed to have just entered the door, but he couldn't see her everywhere, so he asked Mrs. Liu.
Before Mrs. Liu could speak, he saw her.
When their eyes met, Lu Yan smiled and walked towards him quickly.
Sister Liu and the driver were very sensible and quickly slipped back to their respective houses.
Lu Yan put her arms around Jiang Chengyi's neck and gave a big kiss, very happy: "You are awesome!"
Although Jiang Chengyi was also happy, in order to avoid her endless kisses, he could not help but slightly tilt his head back and said with a smile, "Enough is enough, I haven't showered for two days, I'll go back to the house and take a good shower, and then give you a kiss. enough."
Lu Yan couldn't contain her smile at all, and pushed him into the room: "Have you eaten breakfast? Are you hungry? Do you want me to wash with you?" The last sentence deliberately lowered her voice.
"Eat. Not hungry. I want."
The standard answer of Jiang Chengyi.
Lu Yan smiled and pushed him back to the master bedroom.
As soon as he entered the room, Jiang Chengyi took off his jacket and began to unbutton his shirt: "I have to rush back to the bureau after taking a shower. Dr. Yu has been in the trial all night, and when I left, he was still conducting psychological research on Cheng Zhou. , but looking at Cheng Zhou's performance, he shouldn't be able to carry it for long."
Lu Yan just turned on the faucet, and when she heard this, she turned around in surprise: "You mean, Cheng Zhou hasn't said a word since his arrest last night? Even Dr. Yu couldn't pry open his mouth? "
When will he be able to explain Deng Man's affairs
"It's coming." Jiang Chengyi threw the dirty shirt he took off into the dirty clothes basket, "Bu Chengzhou is basically the most stubborn prisoner I've ever tried, if he hadn't broken through his psychological defense, he wouldn't have thought of it at all. As for any information, it is fortunate that we got clues from Zhou Zhicheng, otherwise we would never have imagined that there will be a well in Shuilongtan that can hide people."
He said it lightly, but Lu Yan knew exactly what a thrilling moment he experienced, and couldn't help feeling overwhelmed. She tiptoed to hold his face: "You are really great...my hero."
Jiang Chengyi looked at her, and asked confidently: "Then your hero and little hero are tired and ask you to help them take a bath." Holding her hand, he opened the door of the shower, and was about to drag her in.
"I'm still wearing clothes." She struggled with a smile and pushed him in. "You wash first, and I'll come over."
He refused.
She twisted him but, seeing that only trousers were left on his body, she simply smiled and wrapped around his waist from behind, using her slender white fingers to help him unbutton, as if to coax a child: "Okay, then I'll help first. Take off your pants."
In just a few seconds, he was able to react to her, his throat rolled, and his hand involuntarily touched back.
She broke his hand: "it's not over."
He was a little resentful, and said stubbornly: "What are you thinking, even if it's over, there is no time. We have to rush back to the bureau in half an hour, which is not enough for us to toss."
The two pushed and shoved, and after grinding in the bathroom for more than ten minutes, they came out. If it wasn't for Jiang Chengyi's lack of time, it is estimated that he would have spent an hour or two together.
When she came out, Lu Yan was soaking wet inside and out, so she had to change her clothes, spread her wet hair, and go to the bathroom to turn on the hairdryer.
Jiang Chengyi put on clean clothes and said outside: "By the way, I heard from Lao Qin just now that you called him in the morning to tell him that Teacher Zhou is about to wake up
Lu Yan raised the corners of her mouth proudly: "Yes."
"Oh." Jiang Chengyi entered the bathroom and asked her to turn around and put her on his chest, "Do you want me to praise you?"
"Don't I deserve praise?" Lu Yan slowly wrapped her arms around his waist.
He watched her quietly for a while, learned her tone, and whispered, "My wife is awesome."
Lu Yan was stunned.
"Come with me to the bureau." He gently brushed her still wet hair, "Cheng Zhou has been arrested, as a witness, go over to identify it, and record a statement by the way. In addition, you were for Deng Man before. I wrote anonymous letters to the bureau in succession for the case. I see if I can try to apply for it and record the passage that Cheng Zhou explained to Deng Man for you to listen to. Of course, this is not very compliant, so don’t report too much hope. ."
He knew that Deng Man's death had always been a big stone in Lu Yan's heart, and he had worked hard for many years just to seek justice and truth for his friends.
Lu Yan's nose was slightly sour, and she nodded desperately: "Okay."
On the way to the police station, Jiang Chengyi said, "If part of the cases can be successfully tried today, I'll take you out for dinner at night. You'll be bored at home all day long."
Lu Yan couldn't ask for it, she thought about it and said, "Why don't we go to eat Sichuan food."
"Sichuan cuisine?"
Lu Yan was dissatisfied: "It's the one we used to eat in high school."
"That restaurant is still open?" Jiang Chengyi was surprised. In fact, Lu Yan didn't like spicy food very much, but he didn't know what was wrong, and he liked it, so every time he went to eat there, she actually mentioned it on his own initiative, but She only took a few bites each time and it was too spicy, and the rest of the time, she could only watch him eat from the opposite side with tears in her eyes.
She snorted softly and turned on her mobile phone: "Business is getting better and better, you have to book a table in advance."
"Can you eat spicy food, or go somewhere else,"
"But I want spicy food."
"Oh." What you say is what.
When we got to the bureau, the office was very jubilant. In fact, most people had not slept for two consecutive nights, but because of the successful cracking of the 12.3 large-scale serial case, everyone seemed to be full of energy.
Many people held a box of steaming instant noodles in their hands, and the house was full of laughter.
Old Qin Zheng was talking vigorously, and suddenly caught a glimpse of Lu Yan, stunned for a moment, and then burst into a smile: "Doctor Lu is here."
This joyous atmosphere is very infectious, Lu Yan smiled knowingly, and followed Jiang Chengyi into the office.
"Take Lu Yan to recognize the suspect in a while, and then help her make a transcript." Jiang Chengyi handed Lu Yan over to Lao Qin, "I went to the interrogation room downstairs."
"Okay." Lao Qin quickly took two mouthfuls of instant noodles, and led Lu Yan to sit down amid the lively noise, "Doctor Lu, wait a moment, I'll finish eating."
After Lu Yan sat down, seeing Jiang Chengyi still looking at her at the door, she winked at him, and he left at ease.
