Detective: Open your eyes, I am handcuffed in the interrogation room.

Chapter 631 Yangcheng
After receiving the call from the special case team, the Chongcheng police were extremely surprised and immediately gathered a team and rushed to Dongli Shanhai to prepare for the handover between the Shanhai Branch and the special case team.

They really didn't expect that Hao Ji, who had been missing for twenty years, would be caught by the Imperial City Special Case Team in Dongli. They had not received any assistance orders before that. It was very sudden.

However, it is not surprising that the special case team has the authority to retrieve the files, but for some reason Chongcheng was not notified. This case does not seem to involve any internal personnel, so there is no need to keep it confidential.

Given that the crimes committed by Hao Ji spanned Chongcheng and Dongli, this case should be jointly investigated by the police of the two places, with Dongli as the main focus.

This was the first time Chen Yi stepped into the Shanhai Branch after arriving in Dongli. After receiving the news, the leaders all rushed over, wanting to know what the special case team's purpose of coming to Dongli was.

Chen Yi did not hold a meeting and declined the invitation to a banquet. He left after handing over Hao Ji. He would wait until the trial was over before leaving.

During the explanation, Yunjie Group was occasionally mentioned, but Zhong Liyun's suspicion of illegal or criminal activities was not mentioned.

Since he had promised Hao Ji, he would do it.

From beginning to end, he did not use Wu Ruiyang from the Shanhai Branch, mainly because the investigation of Zhong Liyun was too smooth. After finding Ji Hao (Hao Ji), he did not even start the evidence collection work before the cliff jumping incident occurred. Hao Ji took the initiative to confess most of the doubts and put an end to everything.

Chen Yi knew why this happened. It was because Zhong Liyun had no intention of confronting him. If he could find out, he would find out. If he couldn't, it was just luck. The other party did not deliberately make things more difficult for the special case team.

Although Wu Ruiyang was not used, Chen Yi still met with him alone.

I need to ask something about He Shirong.

"What department? Yunjie Group?" Faced with Chen Yi's question, Wu Ruiyang pondered for a long time and said, "Chen Xun, I did report to Director He about Yunjie Group. When I first came to Shanhai Branch, I was in the economic investigation. After two years, I was transferred to the criminal investigation. When I was in the economic investigation detachment, I found that Yunjie Group had some problems. I suspected that they had a large amount of unknown funds, but I never found out."

Wu Ruiyang said that Yunjie's development speed was indeed a bit too fast, with branches and directly-operated stores popping up like mushrooms after rain, which had almost reached an unreasonable level. After suspecting that Yunjie had an unknown source of funds, he believed that the accounts were falsified.

Use black money to launder accounts, but no one knows where the money comes from.

After reporting the matter to He Shirong, He Shirong took it seriously for a while, but when no evidence was found, the case was dropped.

Chen Yi understood that there was another expert in Yunjie Group, and he wondered if it was Qiu Jie.

One was making money outside, and the other was settling accounts inside. This is how Yunjie grew into a giant in the Dongli Mountains and Seas in just over a decade.

That evening, Zhong Liyun made a private invitation to Chen Yi, and Chen Yi accepted the invitation. This was the only and last meal he had with Zhong Liyun before leaving Dongli.

At the dinner, Chen Yi asked about the economic issue mentioned by Wu Ruiyang.

Zhong Liyun had an inexplicable trust in Chen Yi and answered all his questions: "Ajie has a high talent for business. I sent her to further study for two years. She was in charge of the accounts of Yunjie, but I have been hiding it from her in recent years. Yunjie Group has been on the right track and does not need external funds."

Chen Yi nodded: "I hope there is nothing missing, otherwise I will come back."

Chen Yi has asked the Criminal Investigation Brigade of Shanhai Branch to confirm everything Hao Ji told him, including Zhong Liyun's mother. If there is any discrepancy, he will rush back immediately after receiving a phone call.

He has violated the rules by helping Zhong Liyun, and if he finds out that he has been deceived, Zhong Liyun will bear the wrath.

Zhong Liyun smiled, without saying anything high-sounding, and asked: "Chen Xun, do you know what I want?"

Chen Yi took a sip of tea and said, "I'm all ears."

Zhong Liyun said: "I don't think I'm a good person, but material feasts are not what I want to pursue. What I want to experience is spiritual cultivation.

Material things don’t have much appeal to me, but being able to achieve spiritual sublimation makes my adrenaline very active, maybe... it’s because of my early experiences.

It can be said to be paranoia. Many people value money more than their life, but I hope to get spiritual rewards, which makes me very obsessed.

I'm not that kind, I'm also selfish."

Chen Yi looked at him and said, "If your selfishness is true, then the country needs more selfish people."

As long as you are willing to give away your wealth, who cares what your purpose is? It doesn't matter whether it is for yourself or for others, everyone will be grateful to you.

The results are what matter.

Zhong Liyun raised his glass and said, "Chen Xun, if you have any problems in Dongli in the future, please call me anytime. I will go through fire and water to help you."

Then he asked Hao Ji about his current situation and in which city the case would be tried.

Chen Yi said that it was most likely in Dongli. He knew that Zhong Liyun would definitely find the best lawyer to defend Hao Ji and strive for the possibility of a suspended death sentence.

As Hao Ji is responsible for several deaths, he will definitely be sentenced to death and there will be no accidents. The only difference is whether it is immediate execution or suspended death sentence.

If there is no restriction on commutation of sentence for suspended death sentence, the two will have the opportunity to drink and chat happily together in the future when they are in their sixties.

……

Another day passed, and on the morning of the third day, Chen Yi called He Shirong to report the results of the special case team's "tour".

"You solved another case from twenty years ago? You really are never idle." He Shirong was surprised.

Chen Yi was helpless: "Bu He, let's be sincere."

He Shirong laughed: "I am not doing this for the overall situation. Even for me, there are many things that I can't do just because I want to. Is Zhong Liyun really okay?"

He no longer concealed the fact and asked Chen Yi to go to Dongli in order to investigate Zhong Liyun.

Chen Yi: "He had some problems 20 years ago. He was suspected of illegal debt collection. It is impossible for someone like him to rise so suddenly to be clean. But someone took all the blame. There would be no evidence left 20 years ago."

He Shirong: "Are there no major illegal or criminal acts?"

Chen Yi: "I really don't have that, at least I haven't found it."

There is actually no absolute standard for what constitutes a major crime. It depends on the impact and the severity of the crime. To be honest, what Zhong Liyun did cannot be considered severe, and it did not cause any social impact.

He Shirong was silent for a long time, then said, "Okay, you've worked hard. I'll give you another half a month to have a good rest."

Chen Yi: "After leaving Dongli, I want to go back to Yangcheng for a visit."

He Shirong: "Okay."

Chen Yi: "Thank you, Mr. He."

……

The interrogation of Hao Ji's case was completed in just half a day. He answered whatever the police asked and was very cooperative. However, when it came to Zhong Liyun, he angrily distanced himself from most of his relationship with Zhong Liyun. His acting skills were superb.

"Don't fucking mention that bastard to me! I helped him conquer the world twenty years ago, but now he refuses to help when something happens. He's a real bastard!" Hao Ji yelled in the interrogation room.

Because there was indeed no obvious connection between Hao Ji and Zhong Liyun, the Chongcheng and Dongli police did not become suspicious when they saw his attitude. After the other party identified the crime scene, the case file would be handed over to the procuratorate for prosecution.

How to judge is the court's business. The criminal police's task has been completed.

"There are several cases where it is impossible to find evidence. Why did he confess so thoroughly? His denial is still very helpful in sentencing."

The criminal investigation team leader of Shanhai Branch felt strange and asked the criminal investigation team leader of Chongcheng. The latter said, "How do I know? Isn't it a good thing to confess?" Maybe he was afraid of Chen Xun. After all, it was Chen Xun who investigated the case and arrested the person.

The captain guessed half right. Hao Ji was indeed afraid. He was afraid that his concealment would arouse Chen Yi's dissatisfaction, causing the other party to tear up his promise and attack Zhong Liyun.

Having died once, Hao Ji was not afraid to admit all the crimes. When he left the letter to Chen Yi, he was ready to bear all the consequences. Chen Yi did not leave Dongli until the case was transferred to the procuratorate, making sure that Zhong Liyun was not involved and that Hao Ji was not treated illegally there.

If the two captains discovered the problem themselves, it would have nothing to do with him. He promised to let Zhong Liyun go. Keeping silent was the limit, and he would never do more.

When they were about to enter the airport, a beautiful figure blocked the special case team's way. Chen Yi looked closely and found it was Qiu Jie.

He glanced around immediately, but did not see Zhong Liyun.

"He didn't come." Qiu Jie smiled and said that he came alone to see Chen Yi off, and Zhong Liyun didn't know about this.

Chen Yi smiled back: "Thank you."

Qiu Jie took out a personal business card and handed it to Chen Yi: "Officer Chen, this is my contact information. Li Yun said he will be traveling for the next two years. If you need any help in the future, feel free to call me. No matter what it is, I will spare no effort."

This time, she really had a feeling of regaining what she had lost, because from Zhong Liyun's tone before, it seemed that being caught was a foregone conclusion.

Unexpectedly, Chen Yi still left a trace of kindness in the end.

This kindness may not be for Zhong Liyun, but for the thousands of children still living in poverty, or to support the fight against drugs... But it doesn't matter, Qiu Jie is grateful in his heart.

Chen Yi took it and thanked him again.

Qiu Jie added: "There are many impoverished mountainous areas in Dongzhou. If you need anything, you can tell me directly. Li Yun and I aim to build a thousand primary schools in our lifetime, so that more children who cannot receive a stable education can shine with their own light."

Chen Yi did some mental calculations and calculated that based on the average cost of five million for a teaching building, one thousand would be five billion.

The current Yunjie Group cannot afford so much money.

"Okay." He nodded. "Same to you. If you need financial support, you can call me."

As a police officer, I don't have time to investigate charity, but if I can just pay money to solve the problem, why not do it?

Qiu Jie smiled: "Okay."

Of course she knew that the financial strength of Chen Group was much stronger than Yun Jie.

Chen Yi: "Goodbye."

Looking at the six members of the special case team passing through security check, Qiu Jie smiled even more brightly. In his heart, he wished them a safe journey and that they could always turn danger into safety. If a policeman like Chen Yi had an accident, it would be a loss to the nation.

Terminal.

The six people's destination is Yangcheng. Chen Yi has already asked Su Ying for her opinion in advance. The latter expressed that she wants to follow the special case team. She has no boyfriend and no husband. There is only work in her life. There is no point in going home.

What's more, the special case team's holidays are not necessarily real holidays. If an emergency case occurs, the forensic doctor's position cannot be left vacant.

As for Teng Dabing, there is no need to mention him, he goes wherever Chen Yi goes.

"We're here just in time for dinner." Teng Dabin checked the time. "Where should we go for dinner? Is there anything special about Yangcheng?"

Chen Yi smiled and said, "Now that you are in my territory, don't go out for your first meal. Come to my house."

Teng Dabin's eyes lit up: "Okay, you're a good cook? Or is your sister-in-law a good cook? What are you going to make to entertain us?"

Chen Yi was surprised: "Order takeout."

Teng Dabin: “???”

He cursed, "What's the difference between this and going out to eat? It's even worse than going out to eat! Are you crazy?"

Chen Yi said calmly: "Forget it, everyone should go, let him go out alone to eat fast food."

Teng Dabin put on a smile and said, "No, I'm just kidding. Eat well at home, eat well at home. At least you can enjoy the warm environment."

On the other hand, Su Ying had expectations. Chen Yi's wife was also a forensic doctor like her. Forensic doctors had a lot in common. Mainly, she wanted to see what kind of person Chen Yi would marry.

Being with Chen Yi, the pressure is definitely great.

It was time to board the plane while we were chatting and laughing.

take off.

……

Yangcheng.

Beautiful.

At this time, almost no one comes to the bar to drink, and Lizhi is very deserted. The scene shifts to one of the private seats in the hall, where several familiar faces are sitting and talking.

Meng Yi, Tang Hongyi, Huo Gaoyang.

Perhaps because the topic was sensitive, neither side brought their men with them, just the three of them.

"Don't just stand there, captains, have a drink." Meng Yi said with a smile.

Tang Hongyi frowned, and it was obvious that the conversation was not going well: "Boss Meng, we are working, and alcohol is prohibited."

"Oh..." Meng Yi said "oh", smiled, picked up his wine glass and tasted it slowly.

Tang Hongyi was losing his patience and turned to look at Huo Gaoyang beside him. It was precisely because Huo Gaoyang and Meng Yi had some friendship that he called him over.

He had met Meng Yi twice before, and the other party was unwilling to help.

As the captain of the Yangcheng Economic Investigation Detachment, Tang Hongyi is currently investigating a case of reselling invoices involving a huge amount of money and a wide geographical area, the source of which is in Yangcheng.

The suspect used false identities to register companies in many places and issued false invoices on a large scale. The known number of invoices is over one million, with a total amount of over one hundred billion yuan. Companies in nearly thirty provinces have purchased these invoices.

He now needs to find the person who made the fake ID card and try to track down the boss behind the scenes, but none of the criminals who made fake ID cards known to the criminal investigation department meet the requirements. One of them revealed that there is a master hidden in Yangcheng who has been in this business for more than 20 years and has rich skills and experience.

The Economic Investigation Brigade wants to find this person.

How to find it? It's very difficult.

Recently, Tang Hongyi learned from his colleagues in the Criminal Investigation Brigade that there was a guy named Qian Dakang in Yangcheng, who is now the owner of a repair shop. More than ten years ago, this man was an intelligence dealer.

Back then, although Qian Dakang did not participate in the underground affairs in Yangcheng, he basically knew everything about them.

After getting this clue, Tang Hongyi immediately took people to meet Qian Dakang, but the other party insisted that he knew nothing and had stopped working as an intelligence dealer a long time ago, so it was useless to ask him.

But Tang Hongyi could see that Qian Dakang must be hiding something and was just unwilling to cooperate.

Why did he come to Meng Yi? Because Qian Dakang and Meng Yi had a good relationship, he hoped to let Meng Yi act as a middleman to get the information he wanted from Qian Dakang, even if it was just a direction, and at the same time guarantee that the police would keep the source of the information strictly confidential to prevent the suspect from retaliating.

This is personal help, and Tang Hongyi is unwilling to give up this clue easily.
