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

Chapter 430 The Full Picture of the Case! (Seeking Monthly Tickets)

March 1, 8 am.

Inside a meeting room in Danam district.

Yang Jinwen sat at the end of the conference table, with members of the Third Brigade standing behind him against the wall.

Wen Mo, Wen Hesong, Zhou Changyuan, and others were seated at the conference table.

Opposite them were Sheng Wei, the Discipline Inspection Commission, and relevant personnel sent by An'nan City to investigate.

The room was filled with a tense atmosphere; even Zhou Changyuan, a heavy smoker, dared not smoke.

Two hours ago, Zhou Changyuan and He Jinbo found Yang Jinwen, but Yang Jinwen didn't say anything.

An hour ago, Wen Mo and Wen Song rushed over, and Yang Jinwen then presented the evidence he had gathered over the past two days and explained the details of the case.

At this time, the confessions signed and fingerprinted by criminal suspects Lu Yong and Zheng Dong were circulated among these important figures, along with the testimonies of Liu Chuan and Zhao Xiaofeng.

A tape recorder was placed in the middle of the conference table. After a female prosecutor reached out and pressed the switch, the tape began to slowly spin.

After a series of hissing sounds, Yang Jinwen's voice rang out in the otherwise silent conference room:

"Zheng Dong, I am Yang Jinwen, the criminal captain of the Third Brigade of Qincheng Public Security Bureau. I'm asking you now, what is your relationship with Zhu Gui?"

"He...he hired me, it was an employment relationship."

What did you do for him?

"He...he asked me to help him find some girls in society."

What kind of girl?

"The ideal age is ** and preferably someone who has never been in a relationship."

"Since when?"

"89."

"Give me the specific time."

"I can't remember exactly what happened during the summer vacation of 89."

Did you help him?

"Help."

Who did you contact?

"Two ** girls."

"Where did they take the person?"

"It's up to Zhu Gui and Lu Yong."

"What are the two girls' names? How old are they?"

"Wu Xiaofang, Zhang Qiu, age..."

"Were they there voluntarily or were they forced?"

"Voluntary."

How do you believe they did it voluntarily?

"That Boss Zhu, Zhu Gui, gave me a sum of money. I kept some for myself and gave the rest to the two girls."

"and then?"

"Then Lu Yong and Dou Junhao took them to Zhu Gui's place."

"Where?"

"I don't know."

"Is this the first time?"

"Yes."

"anything else?"

"And then there was 91, when Zhu Gui contracted the Panying Coal Mine and built a villa on the back mountain. Then in the summer of 92, he contacted me again and asked me to continue working for him. In 92, 94, 95, 96, and 97, I helped him find some girls."

"Was it all voluntary?"

"No, some of them are * (illegible)."

Who committed the atrocities?

"I... but Lu Yong forced me to do this. Money won't work, and he wants prostitutes. Where am I supposed to find those?"

"Which ones were drugged by you?"

"Zhu Ling, Dong Xiaojuan, Chen Yan, and a few others, I think, but I forgot their names."

How many girls are there in total?

"Ten, eleven?"

"Zhu Ling, Dong Xiaojuan, Chen Yan, how can you remember these three names so clearly?"

"Uh……"

"answer the questions."

"Because...because after these three people went to the other courtyard, two of them died, and the third one went mad after returning, so I remember it very clearly."

"Were they there voluntarily?"

"No."

"Did you give me the medicine?"

"No, Lu Yong and Dou Junhao forced me to do it."

"Which two died? Which one went mad?"

"Zhu Ling and Chen Yan are dead, and Dong Xiaojuan has gone mad."

"In which year did they go to Zhu Gui's villa?"

"Zhu Ling was taken to the villa by Lu Yong and Dou Junhao in August 1995. She would usually come back after a few days, but she never came back. Her grandparents were the only ones at home, so they didn't take care of her and just treated her as if she had disappeared."

Dou Junhao once came to the county town to visit me. I treated him to a meal, and when he got drunk, he secretly told me that the girl had fallen from the third floor and died on the spot.

Then Zhu Gui told him and Lu Yong to drag the body away and bury it.

"Where is it buried?"

"I do not know."

Where is Chen Yan?

"She was taken to another house during the summer vacation of 97, and then she disappeared."

"Then how do you know she's dead?"

"Because...because I took Zhu Gui's money, and afterwards I had to keep an eye on things for him, to prevent these girls from gossiping, and to do some appeasement to avoid trouble. They didn't tell me to keep an eye on Chen Yan, so isn't that the same as her being dead?"

"Tell me about Dong Xiaojuan."

"She was sent there in 96, and she became mentally unstable after she came back. They drove her crazy."

Who lives in the villa?

"Zhu Gui only entertained two people. One was Cao Xuan, who was said to be a wealthy man from Annam whose family owned a nightclub. I didn't know the other one and didn't know his name, but he was very arrogant."

"If I ask you to identify it, can you recognize it?"

"Yes, definitely, the face looks very familiar."

……

The voice from the tape recorder continued for more than an hour: "Zheng Dong, are all the things you confessed to true?"

"true."

"Okay, sign and put your fingerprint on."

Immediately afterwards, the female colleague from the procuratorate reached out her hands, turned on the tape recorder, took out the cassette tape, flipped it over, and then pressed the power button.

"Name?"

"Lu Yong".

"Where are you from?"

"From Lanzhou." "Do you know why you're being arrested?"

"know."

"Then tell me?"

"kill."

"Kill who?"

A cold laugh came from the recording: "You arrested me, don't you know that?"

"Tell me your name!"

"Cao Xuan".

"Who else?"

There was also a little girl, but I don't know her name.

What month and what day?

"97, I can't remember which day it was."

Why kill?

"Let her run away, we'll chase after her."

"What was used to kill him?"

"gun."

Who was involved?

"Just me, and Dou Junhao. Oh, right, Dou Junhao is dead. I buried his body."

"Where is it buried?"

"Next to the banana grove to the right of the front gate of the villa."

"Let's talk about the girl first. You chased her in the back mountain and killed her with a gun. Where did you bury the body?"

After more than a minute of silence, Lu Yong sighed and replied, "There's a sinkhole in the back mountain. The body was thrown into the sinkhole."

"Who ordered you to kill them?"

"My boss."

"Say name."

"Zhu Gui".

"Who else?"

"Him? He's gone."

"What happened in the villa behind the Panying Coal Mine before January 6th?"

"Ha, you've been there? No wonder you found me."

"Explain the situation."

"On the evening of the 5th, it was getting dark and I was taking an afternoon nap in my room when I heard the sound of a motorcycle outside. At first, I didn't pay attention and thought it was Old Liu and his wife coming up the mountain to clean up."

But after a while, I heard someone coming upstairs, and then, gunshots rang out.

I went outside and saw that, holy crap, that son of a bitch Dou Junhao had been beaten to death by the people who broke in. He was lying on the floor next to the sofa.

I immediately went back to my bedroom, grabbed my gun, and started shooting back at them. We were in a standoff for about half an hour. When there was no more noise outside, I went out to check and found that they had run away.

There were no phones in the mountains, so I couldn't contact Boss Zhu. I buried Dou Junhao's body, then took my things, drove my van to the coal mine below, and found Boss Zhu's younger brother, Zhu Hu.

I called Boss Zhu and told him what happened at the villa.

He asked me if I had seen what the person looked like. I did see him; he was wearing glasses and a military overcoat, but I didn't recognize him.

Then Boss Zhu said that we were probably being retaliated against. This person would definitely not let it go, and once things escalated, it would be difficult to handle.

He told me that there was a man surnamed Cao in the provincial capital, and he wanted me to kill him, and then kill Zheng Dong, so that no one would know about it.

"lie!"

"I told the truth."

"What time did you call Zhu Gui?"

Around nine o'clock in the evening.

Where was he at the time?

"I do not know."

"You got the phone number from the coal mine down there? Is there anyone who can vouch for you?"

"If you don't believe me, go ask Boss Zhu's brother. He saw the phone call I made."

"Zhu Gui ordered you to kill Cao Xuan?"

"Yes."

"Lu Yong, you're not telling the truth."

"If you don't believe me, there's nothing I can do."

"I'm asking you, who are these girls you've found for?"

"This was arranged by Boss Zhu; I'm just doing the work."

"Including murder?"

"Yes."

"You know Cao Xuan?"

"Yes."

"Do you know Wu Mingyu?"

"Who?"

"Don't pretend!"

"I don't know who you're talking about?"

"Let me ask you another way. On the evening of January 5th, the gunman entered the villa and killed Dou Junhao. You buried his body, then rushed to Panying Coal Mine and contacted Zhu Gui, right?"

"That's right..."

"Besides him, have you contacted anyone else?"

"No, who else can I contact?"

After a long silence, Yang Jinwen asked, "Lu Yong, was the gunman who appeared on Jinquan Road last night the same person who killed Dou Junhao?"

"should be."

Do you know who he is?

"How would I know?"

"I'll ask you one more time, who exactly are you working for?"

"What you said is very interesting. I was a wanted criminal back in my hometown. I killed the thug who bullied my wife. Guess what? The people who used to bully my family were terrified, afraid that I would go back and take revenge on them."

So, you ask me who I work for? It's for my wife.

The gunman who hired us must have had the same experience as me. Boss Zhu has harmed so many people; he deserves divine retribution, and so will I. I know my place.

"Lu Yong, who exactly are you protecting?"

“I’ve said everything I needed to say. I acknowledge everything that Mr. Zhu and we have done.”

The tape recorder went silent. Everyone in the conference room looked serious. Wen Mo glanced at Yang Jinwen sitting at the conference table, about to speak.

At that moment, there was a knock on the conference room door. A female police officer pushed the door open, carefully ran along the wall to Zhou Changyuan's side, and whispered a few words to him.

After listening, Zhou Changyuan initially intended to whisper the message to Wen Mo, but after thinking about it, he decided it would be better to say it publicly.

"Um... Wu Mingyu, the person involved in the case, has come to our police station, saying he wants to clarify the situation."

Upon hearing this, everyone in the conference room looked up.

Yang Jinwen's eyes seemed to shoot out a cold light, and his hands on the conference table were clenched into fists!
