Chapter 224: Change of Thinking
Seeing this woman speaking in the calmest tone about her father's past evil deeds, Li Yancheng suddenly felt a chill.

If he remembered correctly, the woman was only six years old that year when the liberation took place.

She was only six years old and witnessed her father doing such cruel things. One can imagine how much impact this would have on her growth.

He suddenly felt a little sympathy for this woman.

This feeling was only fleeting, and he soon calmed down and began to ask questions actively.

……

The interrogation of Dong Qiuling lasted for a long time, starting at around 1:00 p.m. and lasting until nearly 9:00 p.m.

During the meal, Li Yancheng cleaned up for Chen Mingzhu and let Chen Yaozong, who was almost awake, fall asleep again.

This is the benefit of cooperation, they can get more and more comprehensive answers.

Dong Qiuling didn't know much about Chen Yaozong's crimes.

She confessed to things that several people in her family had done, mainly criminal cases.

Su Xiaotong also knew about several cases that caused a great sensation, but had never been solved.

For example, it was common for her husband Chang Shengyuan to lose money playing cards. As the saying goes, after playing cards for thirty years, each of them wins his own money.

But he lost money because those three people joined forces to set up a trap. Of course he refused to do that, and ended up being beaten up by those three people again.

Of course he couldn't swallow this anger, so he went back and asked two young men from the Chen family for help. The three of them acted separately and set fire to the three houses in the dark.

The three families all lived in an alley full of shanty towns. The houses were basically made of wood and the shanty towns were extremely messy, making it difficult to put out fires. One can imagine what a fire would look like in the middle of the night.

In the end, because the victims were burned to death and the scene was destroyed, no useful clues could be found.

The three fires that caused dozens of deaths and injuries six years ago have yet to be solved.

I didn't expect that they would get to know the truth today.

There was also a case that Dong Qiuling committed herself, which happened when she was in school.

At that time, she fell in love with a boy in her class. She was a person who dared to love and hate, so she took the initiative to write a love letter to that boy.

Originally, this would have been nothing, but another girl who also liked that boy found out about it and reported it to the teacher.

The result, of course, was that Dong Qiuling was scolded by the teacher and asked to write a self-criticism.

Having suffered a loss, she will definitely not give up.

At this time, students also had courses in industry and agriculture.

Every month I have to go to the factory to learn how to work from the workers, and also go to the countryside to learn how to farm from the farmers.

Dong Qiuling took the opportunity to fetch water from the well, and seeing that no one was paying attention, she pushed the girl who had made the report into the well.

In order to clear herself of suspicion, she deliberately made a slipping mark at the edge of the well, and then shouted that someone had fallen into the well.

By the time the girl was rescued, she was already dead.

No one could have imagined that a girl could be so vicious, so the case was closed as an accident at the time. Only today did they know the truth of the matter.

She confessed to more than a dozen criminal cases like this.

She also explained some of the things she had heard about Chen Yaozong's side, but since she was not involved she didn't know much.

……

After flipping through the notebook, Li Yancheng threw it aside and lit a cigarette for himself.

The interrogation of Dong Qiuling has ended, and the woman said she has confessed everything she can remember.

Li Yancheng had no idea whether it was over or not, he just knew that he felt very upset at the moment.

He remembered that in his previous life, he heard someone say that if one dealt with these criminals for a long time, and if one did not receive timely psychological counseling, or if one was not a person with a big heart, one would more or less suffer from some mental illness.

There is nothing wrong with that.

Maybe it has something to do with the environment he is in, he feels very gloomy now.

"Sincerity"

Before he finished smoking a cigarette, Dai Jun came over and called him again.

"Hmm? What's wrong, Director Dai?"

"Dong Qiuling said she has something to tell you."

"Didn't she say anything?" Li Yancheng stood up with a frown. He really didn't want to talk to this woman now.

"She said it was about some personal matters of yours. Xiaotong wanted you to hear what she wanted to say."

"Huh...okay."

"hehe"

Looking at Li Yancheng's gloomy expression, Dai Jun raised his hand and patted his arm.

“Although what I said may not be right, Yan Cheng, if you hear and experience this kind of thing more often, you will know that some people are so evil that they are hated by both humans and gods. You will have the urge to get rid of such people on the spot.

I know a teacher at Peking University who teaches ideology. He told me that people in our line of work must learn to entertain themselves, otherwise sooner or later they will be crushed by the inner pressure.

Don’t you already have a partner? Get married as soon as possible after completing this mission. Then you will have someone to talk to in the future. Even if you can’t talk about the case, it’s good to be able to chat about personal matters.

Don't be alone all the time, or you'll get sick."

"Thank you for your concern, Director Dai."

"You're welcome. Come on, go over and see what private matter that woman wants to tell you."

"it is good"

Dong Qiuling had just finished her meal, so it was good that she could move on her own, which saved her a lot of trouble.

Later, you can also ask her to help clean up for her mother and her cousin.

Dong Qiuling, who was leaning against the wall in a daze, immediately sat up straight when she saw Li Yancheng and Dai Jun come in.

"What do you want from me?"

"Can I have a cigarette?"

"You're not here just to ask for a cigarette, are you?"

"No, just now when we were having dinner, I suddenly remembered something I heard about you at home, so I wanted to tell you."

"About me?" Li Yancheng thought for a moment, took out a cigarette from his pocket, took two steps forward and put it into Dong Qiuling's mouth. He struck a match to help her light it, then took two steps back and lit one for Dai Jun and himself.

"Tell me, what do you know about me?"

"Are you sure you want your colleagues to listen too?" Dong Qiuling exhaled the cigarette in her mouth, glanced at Dai Jun, then looked at Li Yancheng and asked with a smile.

Her words stunned the two people here. They looked at each other and saw surprise in each other's eyes.

Li Yancheng raised his hand and gestured: "If that's the case, then wait a minute."

Just as Dong Qiuling's smug smile appeared on her face, he turned around and walked to the door of the room and called out, "Xiaotong, Team Leader Feng, you two come over here quickly. There's something fun to listen to. It's a good time to change your brains."

The smile did not disappear, it just shifted from the woman's face to Dai Jun's face.

Li Yancheng's reaction made him shake his head with a bit of amusement, while Dong Qiuling had a dazed look on her face.

Su Xiaotong and Dai Jun came over very quickly. They had just been discussing the questions to ask when interrogating Chen Yaozong in another room. They were already very bored, so when they heard that there was something fun to do to relieve their boredom, they ran over as fast as they could.

"What's the fun? What's going on?"

As soon as he came over, Su Xiaotong couldn't wait to ask.

"She wanted to talk about something personal about me and said it's better not to let my colleagues know, so I asked you to come over to relieve her boredom."

"Your private matter?" Su Xiaotong was stunned for a moment, then walked straight over and squatted in front of Dong Qiuling, who had a dazed expression on her face. He gurgled twice to bring her back to her senses and then said.

"Girl, you're not trying to use Yan Cheng's background to sow discord between us, are you? Then you've got your calculations wrong.

We know his background very well, and you don't have to think about whether there is any way to escape. To tell you the truth, without help from outside, we can't get out.

You'd better behave yourself and don't force us to use any tricks. You just saw your mother doing that. If you also want to just lie there and not be able to move, just say so. We don't mind."

Everyone present was a smart person, so who could fail to see through her little tricks? Seeing her lips trembling and unable to utter a word, Su Xiaotong smiled coldly and stood up, holding his knees.

"Yancheng, if she does any more tricks, make her lose consciousness as well."

"no problem"

"Let's go and discuss what to do. Should we try Chen Yaozong overnight, or should we rest first?"

"Take a break first. My head is a little confused."

"Okay, let's do this, Director Dai. The four of us will arrange shifts. It's not even 9:30 now, so each person will work two hours. Whoever takes the first shift will take the second shift."

The second shift is the most uncomfortable. If you fall asleep slowly, you may have to get up and go to work just after falling asleep. Su Xiaotong took this shift directly.

"I'm in the third class, Yancheng, Xianrong, you two can pick the first and last class."

The two leaders were so noble that they took over the two most uncomfortable shifts. Li Yancheng and Feng Xianrong did not insist on taking over, and they just discussed it casually and decided to sit on duty tonight.

The basement soon became quiet.

……

They rested peacefully, but George from the Ugly Country was almost going crazy.

After a whole day of searching, Johnny and Ham's bodies were finally found in an underground parking lot.

The corpses of his two companions, which had begun to deteriorate due to being suffocated for too long, appeared in George's mind, and his face was so gloomy that ink could drip off.

He, Johnny, Ham, Carl and Vinod from Citibank are secret investigators stationed here by the headquarters. There are also several other people who are responsible for showing up outside to cover up and cooperate with their work.

Among them, Johnny is the leader of their group.

In just two days, their group of nearly twenty people, including peripheral personnel, was reduced to only a few small people. George could already imagine what he would have to face next.

He racked his brains but couldn't figure out how the situation, which was originally pretty good, could turn into this in the blink of an eye.

After a whole day, after mobilizing countless forces, he didn't even catch that gang's tail. This made him doubt whether the enemy he was facing was from the north.

He has been working as a secret investigator in Hong Kong Island for three years. There must be someone from the North here, there is no doubt about it.

During his work, he also came into contact with people who were suspected to be from the North. In his impression, that organization was extremely poor and their daily work was just to collect some information. This was normal. In Hong Kong Island, there were too many such people.

There are countless news dealers.

Apart from the fact that the forces on East Island and those people are mortal enemies and both sides will try their best to eliminate each other, other forces will generally remain restrained, adhering to the idea of ​​​​I will not offend others unless they offend me.

But this time...

George squatted about ten meters away from the car where his companion's body was found, looking blankly at the police who were surrounding the car looking for any traces.

He felt that this incident was a little strange, starting with Vinod's disappearance, which was full of unusual things.

Yes, he had now begun to suspect that there was a conspiracy behind Vinod’s disappearance.

After all, such a big living person just disappeared out of thin air. If it wasn't planned by him, George felt that he really couldn't think of any other way to do it.

If all this was planned by Vinod himself, including the Chinese man, he deliberately arranged it that way just to attract attention. In Hong Kong Island, which has millions of Chinese people, trying to find a Chinese person based on a portrait is as difficult as looking for a needle in a haystack.

In this way, when everyone's attention is focused on the Chinese man, Vinod can use this opportunity to do a lot of things.

So what is he going to do?

money!
Apart from money, George really couldn't think of anything else that would make these people take such risks.

So where is Vinod now? How did he leave the bank building?
Just as he was lost in thought, a foreign policeman who was checking the car came over.

"George"

"Hmm? Gavin, anything found?"

After coming to his senses, George stood up.

"No, there are obvious traces of wiping inside and outside the car. Both of them were shot from behind through the seats. Both of them were hit by three bullets. The bullets should still be in their bodies. We need to pull the bodies back to take out the bullets and confirm the type.

It should be noted that the two people who fired the shots were probably veterans and were very steady. They fired three shots in a row while leaning against the seat, and there was only one bullet hole on the seat. It can be said that their hands did not move at all when they fired the shots. You should know that this is not easy to do.

Stuffing the body into the trunk was probably to delay the time of discovery, and putting clothes under the wound was probably to prevent the blood from flowing out of the car, which was also to delay the time of discovery.

In addition, they deliberately cleaned up the traces inside and outside the car. George, these two people are professionals. You need to consider your industry. As for our police... I won't hide it from you. I am not sure I can solve this case. "

"I see Gavin, thank you."

"You're welcome. If there's nothing else, I'll have them tow the car back."

"No, if you find anything during the autopsy, please let me know."

"no problem"

"By the way Gavin"

Just as he turned around and was about to leave, George suddenly thought of something and hurriedly called out to the policeman who was also about to leave.

"Is there anything else?"

"When your men found the body, were there any signs of a struggle?"

George came over after being notified by the police. When he arrived, Johnny and Ham had already been loaded into the body transporter. He just identified their appearances and did not pay attention to any specific injuries on their bodies.

"No, apart from the gunshot wounds, there were also traces of dragging left when the bodies were being moved. If the attack was not sudden, then it is very likely that the murderer knew the two victims."

Suddenly attacked?
If it were outside, George felt that this was possible.

But he thought that Johnny and Ham would not be attacked suddenly in the car, as they would not react at all when someone touched them near the car.

Little did he know that Johnny had just stopped the car and was about to turn off the engine while arguing with Ham about what had just happened.

Because of the quarrel, neither of them paid attention to the outside of the car, mainly because they were careless. They did not expect that someone would dare to suddenly attack on the side of the road.

Because when he analyzed it just now, George felt that all this must be Vinod's fault.

Now that police officer Gavin said that it might be an acquaintance and a veteran in doing this, he is now even more certain that this must have been done by that guy.

"Thank you"

After nodding and thanking Gavin, George turned and walked towards his car.

He now has to contact the headquarters to tell them his judgment, and also contact the people in John Bull VI to help him. He is a little worried that he has become Vinod's next target.

Action is not what he is good at. If he meets Vinod, the difference between death by one shot or two shots may be the same.

……

Li Yancheng didn't expect that taking away Vinod's body would actually cause this unexpected effect.

He was the first shift, and after an hour and a half of this shift, in order to ensure that he could have a peaceful sleep afterwards, he deliberately gave Chen Yunwei and Chen Mingzhu water in advance, and gave Chen Yaozong another injection to ensure that he would not wake up until tomorrow.

After finishing all this, half an hour had passed. He woke up Su Xiaotong, who was on the next shift, and smoked a cigarette with him. Then Li Yancheng lay down and soon fell into his first sleep after setting foot on the land of Hong Kong Island.

He had a dreamless night, and when he opened his eyes again, it was already past six in the morning of the 19th.

When he walked out of the rest room, he saw that Su Xiaotong and the other three had already gotten up and were discussing something in a low voice in the room next door with a vent.

"what's the topic?"

"Yancheng, you're up. Why don't you sleep a little longer?"

"It's almost time to rest. I just heard you guys talking about evacuating or something. What's going on?"

"Oh, at about five o'clock, Lao Liu sent a message saying that the gang members who were planning to enter the shantytown to conduct a search suddenly withdrew for some unknown reason."

"Suddenly withdrew?" Li Yancheng was stunned.

"Yeah." Su Xiaotong nodded and raised his hand to throw a cigarette over.

"Old Liu asked Hongfang to go out and get information. He said he would notify us if there was any new information. Let's ignore it for now, Yancheng. Let's go according to the plan. Drink some water to wake yourself up and prepare to interrogate Chen Yaozong."

"Okay, make some porridge for Chen Yaozong to eat first. He may not be able to bear it after not eating or drinking for a day and two nights."

"Yes, this is yours."

"Um"
