You're supposed to be a security officer, what case are you solving?

Chapter 245 Revenge! (Begging for monthly votes)

That afternoon.

In the municipal bureau's conference room.

There were very few attendees, just a few people from the Major Crimes Unit, plus He Jinbo and Wen Ling.

The male body, suspected to be Yan Jun's, has been exhumed and sent to the funeral home. Wen Ling examined the remains and determined that the time of death was approximately three to four years ago.

Because there is no basic information about Yan Jun, such as his height and the characteristics of his clothing at the time of his death, no one dares to draw any conclusions at this time.

He Jinbo said, "Then we'll have to let Gong Zhen identify it."

Yang Jinwen nodded and looked at Qi Bin, who said, "I checked with the telecommunications bureau and paging station this morning. At 10 p.m. on May 7th, Ding San's mobile phone made a call."

Who did he contact?

"Gong Zhen".

"What about the call duration?"

"It only took about ten seconds."

He Jinbo scratched the back of his head: "So that means that before Ding San and his group disappeared, the last person they contacted was his wife, Gong Zhen? That woman wasn't telling the truth."

Yao Weihua said, "How could Gong Zhen tell the truth? She's hiding a lot of things in her heart."

"Deputy Chief Yang, I investigated this Feng Wenbin today, and there's definitely something wrong with him."

He Jinbo asked, "What do you mean?"

Yao Weihua picked up his briefcase, placed it on his lap, and took out some documents from it while saying, "Captain Yang asked me to investigate this Feng Wenbin, so I went to ask the staff of the Royal Water Club."

Interestingly, one of the female staff members told me that Feng Wenbin's real name isn't that; it's Feng Yang.

Yang Jinwen frowned: "How did this waitress know his name was Feng Yang?"

"This waitress liked him. Once, Feng Wenbin took her out for a drive. Just ten days ago, he told her that he would no longer be working at the Royal Water Club and that she should stop contacting him."

The woman sensed that Feng Wenbin was hiding something. While he was in the restroom, she rummaged through his clothes, took out his wallet, and found an ID card. The man on the ID card looked exactly like Feng Wenbin, and his name was Feng Yang.

The woman was initially reluctant to talk, and she wasn't good at lying. I had to coax her into telling me before she finally did.

He Jinbo asked, "Have you investigated this person?"

Yao Weihua nodded: "After that, I went to the shops opposite the Teachers' College. The sporting goods store that Yan Jun opened in 94 had long been closed. I asked the Yulin Police Station to look for this Feng Yang."

We used Feng Wenbin's photo to visit Yan Jun and Gong Li's residence and a sporting goods store.

The information we received is that this Feng Wenbin is indeed Feng Yang.

Feng Yang is Yan Jun's younger brother!

"My own younger brother?" He Jinbo's eyes widened.

Yao Weihua handed the documents in his hand to Yang Jinwen, and the group looked at them together.

Feng Yang, 25 years old, is from Longtian Township, Santai County, An'nan City.

It says "Veteran" on it.

Yao Weihua continued, "Yan Jun and Feng Yang are indeed younger brothers. Their father was a son-in-law who married into the family, so Yan Jun took his mother's surname, while his younger brother Feng Yang took his father's surname."

Yang Jinwen squinted and asked, "When Yan Jun was murdered in November 1994, was Feng Yang in the army?"

Yao Weihua nodded: "He was discharged from the army in the middle of 97. At the end of 97, through Gong Zhen's introduction, he started working as Ding San's driver."

"Introduced by Gong Zhen?"

"Yes, that's what everyone at the Royal Water Club says."

He Jinbo slapped his knee and said, "Needless to say, these two people must have conspired to kill someone. The paper money at Wufeng Mountain was also burned by them for Yan Jun."

He paused, then looked at Yang Jinwen: "Here's what we'll do. Go to the detention center now and interrogate Gong Zhen again. I'll have someone hunt down Feng Yang."

Yang Jinwen nodded and led Maozi and Yao Weihua to the detention center.

Ten p.m.

Gong Zhen sat down in the interrogation room of the detention center again.

Just like last time, she wasn't handcuffed, and her freedom wasn't restricted.

Over the past few days, the interrogation team has taken turns interrogating her, but they haven't found any actual evidence of her crime. However, since the case is still ongoing, they haven't released her.

After Yang Jinwen and Yao Weihua sat down, before they could speak, Gong Zhen spoke first: "You've found my husband?"

Yang Jinwen raised his face and stared at her: "Which husband are you asking about?"

Gong Zhen's eyes narrowed, and after a few seconds of stunned silence, she smiled and said, "Any of them is fine."

"What clothes was Yan Jun wearing before he was murdered in November 1994?"

"I forgot."

"Then let me tell you, he was wearing a blue tracksuit, a brown knitted sweater, black dress pants, and a pair of Red Dragonfly leather shoes!"

Upon hearing this, Gong Zhen, who had wanted to avoid the question, froze.

"you……"

Yang Jinwen took out the photo and handed it to Maozi. Maozi took it and walked up to Gong Zhen to show it to her. Yang Jinwen said, "Your ex-husband Yan Jun's body is buried on the slope to the right of the Wufeng Mountain Pavilion. It has been buried for almost five years, and the body has completely turned to bones."

Gong Zhen stared at the photo of the corpse, but only glanced at it before the cat took it away.

She, who had been full of vigor, suddenly became dejected.

Yang Jinwen continued, "We found out that Ding San disappeared on the night of May 7th. The last person he contacted was you. What did he say to you? Or, what did Feng Wenbin say to you?"

Gong Zhen lowered his head and remained silent.

“Gong Zhen, as long as we continue our investigation, we will find out the truth sooner or later. Now that things have come to this, I think you don’t need to hide it anymore.”

"Were Ding San, Lei Xiaokai, and Xiao Xia killed by you and Feng Yang?"

Upon hearing the name 'Feng Yang', Gong Zhen realized that there was no point in continuing to argue.

She raised her head and nodded heavily.

“It has nothing to do with Feng Yang, I killed him.”

Yao Weihua wanted to refute, but Yang Jinwen pressed down on his wrist.

There's no need to refute the other person's words if they're willing to speak, lest it provoke a rebellious attitude.

"Can I see him one more time?"

Yang Jinwen nodded, and Maozi walked over again and held the photo in front of her.

Gong Zhen took the photo with both hands, tears streaming down her face, staining the unlaminated photo.

After crying, she returned the photo to the cat and said, "Actually, for the past few years, I have always wanted to kill Ding San to avenge my husband, but I have never had the chance."

To outsiders, it seemed like I got a good deal by marrying Ding San; I ate well, dressed well, and suddenly became rich.

But that's not actually the case. Ever since my husband was killed by him on the night of November 5, 1994, I have been living under his control. He forbade me to call the police or make phone calls. Wherever I went, he would have people follow me.

He added that even if the police were notified, they wouldn't be able to find the body, and that no police officer would investigate in the past few years.

Furthermore, he would kill my parents if I talked nonsense outside.

At first, that's how I lived. But as time went on, I don't know what kind of person I became, but I never gave up my desire to avenge my husband.

I know Ding San is wary, so I'll just marry him. Once we're married, I'll have a chance to kill him, right?

But there was still no chance. He wouldn't eat the food I cooked, and he wouldn't drink the water I poured for him. He basically imprisoned me by his side, using me as a tool to vent his frustrations.

Lei Xiaokai and Xiao Xia are living in my house, and they keep a close eye on me every day.

Feng Yang retired from the army last year. In the years before that, he called me several times, asking where his brother had gone, why he had suddenly disappeared, and why I had remarried.

I couldn't tell him the truth. Even after he was discharged from the army and came to me, I still didn't tell him the truth. But then I thought that if I told him and let him join me in taking revenge, the chances might be better.

I want them all to die, not just Ding San.

So I asked Feng Yang to be Ding San's driver, and then I started to curry favor with Ding San.

My thought was, Ding San's business is so big, he has a whole gang of people. If he suddenly dies, we won't be able to escape either. Not only will we be arrested by the police, but his brothers won't let us off the hook either. So I started planning how to kill him and how to dispose of the body.

"But then an accident happened. If we had planned it better, this wouldn't have happened. On the night of May 7th, Feng Yang called me using Ding San's phone."

He told me to go to the upper reaches of the Yanzi River, to a place called Yanzigou.

I don't know why he asked me to go; he just said I'd find out once I got there.

I took a taxi there. When I arrived, I saw that Lei Xiaokai had already fainted, and Ding San and Xiao Xia were tied up with ropes and kneeling on the ground.

I was shocked, but after asking, I understood that Ding San had gone to a hotel with a woman that afternoon, and Feng Yang had been waiting for him in the hotel lobby.

After it was all over, Feng Yang drove them to the Royal Water Club.

However, Ding San started talking about things from five years ago in the car. Besides him, there were also Lei Xiaokai and a few others. They talked about Yan Jun.

Upon hearing this, Feng Yang knew that his brother's disappearance was not a simple matter. Then, connecting this to the fact that I had married Ding San, he guessed that his brother might have been harmed by Ding San.

Feng Yang had served in the army and was very skilled. He drove the car to a secluded spot and then began his attack…

Gong Zhen paused, wiped away her tears, and smiled: "I killed Ding San. I used a wrench to smash his head, one blow after another, until his face was covered in blood."

I thought killing would be scary, but I wasn't; I felt incredibly exhilarated.

I hit him more than a dozen times. It felt like I was reborn.

I dragged Xiao Xia and Lei Xiaokai to the riverbank, pressed their heads into the water, and drowned them.

I asked Feng Yang for help to load their bodies into the car, then locked the doors and pushed the car into the river…

Gong Zhen took a deep breath, his eyes blazing with unprecedented hatred.

“I killed them all, it has nothing to do with Feng Yang. The reason I wanted to kill them all, without sparing a single one, is because when I killed Ding San, he told me that when they buried Yan Jun's body, Yan Jun was still alive, he was still breathing…”

If Ding San had let him go back then, he might still be alive…

"He can still be alive..."

Gong Zhen kept repeating this sentence, her head bowed, tears streaming down her face.
