folk detective

Chapter 278

It seems that it is impossible to expect Xiaodoubi to expand several lines at the same time to investigate and collect clues.

Watching the video right now, investigating the visitor, and the law firm are enough for him to choke.

In just a few months, it is estimated that they will not be able to sort out the connections among them.Liu Mang was secretly glad that he found a younger brother, otherwise he would be alone, and he would have exhausted himself to death.

"Then think of a way as soon as possible!"

Liu Mang took a deep breath, thinking that he was under a lot of pressure, time was too tight, and Shi Shini didn't give him much time, "Shi Shini didn't give him a lot of time, and I might only get two months at most , So we have to figure everything out within two months, otherwise... we will let it cool down and smash our own signboard."

Others offer a price of 100 million, there is a requirement.

Solve the case in the shortest time possible.

If the delay is too long, the other party will not offer such a high price.

"Two months?"

When driving before, Liu Mang called Shi Shini in the car. He heard about the time to solve the case, but Xiao Doubi never imagined that Liu Mang could only win so little time at most: "Brother, I think This case is not simple, and I am afraid that the case will not be solved in two months, at most, some clues can be found."

If there is a murderer, it must be hidden very deeply, and ordinary methods cannot be found out.

What's more, Xiaodoubi has too many things in his hands, and within two months, he can't finish all the things Liu Mang told him.

Even if you work day and night, you can't finish it.

If it can't be broken in two months, Liu Mang's reputation and image as a small private detective that he has built up with great difficulty may be smashed like this.

"Do your best and obey the destiny. If you can't break it within two months and Shi Shini doesn't give you time, then that's the only way to go." Liu Mang said in a low voice.

In his mind, he had an approximate time prediction for the case of Mr. Ding.

"All right!"

This kind of thing is not something Xiaodubi should worry about.

Even Liu Mang said that, of course Xiaodoubi wouldn't say anything more.

After a short break, Xiaodoubi continued to watch his video surveillance.

He must watch these videos as soon as possible within a week to find clues from them.

Otherwise, if the time drags on for too long, other things will not be able to unfold at all.

They are now racing against time to solve the case.

After the meal, Xiao Doubi watched the video, and Liu Mang continued to sort out the information, and at the same time searched for the past of the Ding Group on the Internet.

He wanted to know more about Mr. Ding and the Ding Group.

There are four things he must figure out:
Mr. Ding's past and relationships;
Ding's current situation and competitors;

Mr. Ding's donation and insomnia;
What impact does Ding Lao's death have on the Shi Group, and why Shi Shini has to come forward in person, but Ding Lao's family members do not.

Once he clarifies these things, it can almost be said that the case can be clarified first, so as to have ideas to analyze.

To solve the case, first solve the person.

If you don't even know the relationship between Mr. Ding and him, you want to solve the unsolved case, which is simply a fantasy.

After the takeaway was delivered, Liu Mang and Xiao Doubi ate and chatted, and then they got busy until around eleven o'clock in the evening, before Liu Mang asked Xiao Doubi to go home and sleep, and roll over early tomorrow morning to continue handling the case.

Before going to bed, Liu Mang called home to inquire about the situation at home, and fell asleep only after he was fine.

On the third day, that is, the third day of junior high school!
The day after Liu Mang returned to the city.

Shi Shini called Liu Mang early in the morning, and Liu Mang, who was in a deep sleep, was awakened by the ringing of the phone. He opened his eyes and looked at the phone, pressed the connect button and said in a low voice, "What's the matter?"

"I just received a call. The site of Lao Ding's memorial service has just been set up today. After the memorial service is held tomorrow, he will be cremated and buried, and the ashes will be sent back to his hometown." Shi Shini said in a deep voice.

The reason why she called Liu Mang was because Liu Mang had previously requested that once there was news about Ding Lao's burial, she would tell him in time.

Fourth day!

He was found dead on New Year's Day.

The second day of junior high school was yesterday.

In summer, when someone dies in the family, they often choose to be buried on the third day, because the weather is hot and there is no mortuary in the countryside, so there is no place to store the corpse, and it is easy to stink.

So they are often buried on the third day.

And on the second day, all immediate relatives will stay in the mourning hall to die.

On the morning of the funeral, all relatives and friends will attend the funeral and carry the coffin to the mountain for burial.

This is the way of funeral and burial in the countryside.

People in the city are not so particular, but they will choose to be buried within seven days.

Many people choose to do so on the third or fourth day. There is a funeral parlor in the city, so some people with a little more background will hold a mourning hall after their death for memorial use.

Mr. Ding passed away very suddenly, and it happened to be Chinese New Year. The family members didn't want to make too much publicity, and even wanted to bury him without announcing it. Therefore, the people who could attend were those who were very close to Mr. Ding and the Ding Group.

Liu Mang grew up in the village, and his grandfather was an old mage, so he knew some customs about the burial of the dead.

Nowadays, many people who live in the city will be buried in the city after they die, so that it is convenient for future generations to worship, and there is no need to worry about the tomb being covered with weeds and left unattended.

However, very few people choose to be cremated and sent back to their hometown for burial.

Unless you can't afford a cemetery in the city, or you can't let go of your hometown, you want to return to your roots after death and be buried in your hometown.

If Liu Mang's guess was correct, Mr. Ding probably wanted to return to his roots, and he didn't want to be buried alone in the city's cemetery after death.

After all, his parents were buried in their hometown.

"Would it be bad if I came forward to worship and mourn?" Liu Mang asked in a low voice.

In fact, it wasn't that he was embarrassed, but that he was afraid of being kicked out by Mr. Ding's family, which would be embarrassing.

When the time comes, it's not that he will lose face, but that he is afraid that Shi Shini's face will not look good.

After all, Shi Shini found him, and Shi Shini was the employer.

"Don't worry, I told Mrs. Ding's daughter. If you have any questions, you can ask her face to face. She was also very shocked by her father's sudden death. She didn't believe that Mr. Ding would die unexpectedly. " Shi Shini said solemnly.

The reason why she asked Liu Mang to investigate Ding Lao's death.

In addition to her own thoughts that she was afraid that Ding Lao's death would affect the Shi Group, part of the reason was that Ding Lao's daughter also had doubts.

However, they are not detectives or police officers after all. It is useless to just suspect. You must find professional people and do professional things to investigate the matter of Lao Ding's death.

"Oh! It seems that I must be present at this memorial service." Liu Mang narrowed his eyes. When he was free last night, he was still worrying about how to get to know Mr. Ding's family members!

Now it seems that there is no need for him to worry about this matter, Ding Lao's daughter will take the initiative to find him.

This also saves him a lot of work.

"Old Ding's daughter told me that this memorial service has not been notified to many people, so the time will be very short, probably less than two hours, and it will end. If you want to do something, you must arrive early." Shi Shini said solemnly .

"Well, I'll go find you tomorrow, and we'll go ahead together, just so I have something to talk to you about." Liu Mang said.

Shi Shini must still be hiding a lot of things from Liu Mang, Liu Mang thought, if she didn't take the initiative to ask, Shi Shini might not take the initiative to tell him.

Instead of this, it is better to take the initiative to attack.

"Okay, I'll leave at around two o'clock tomorrow afternoon. The memorial service will start at three o'clock and end before five o'clock. The cremation will be at 05:30." Shi Shini said in a heavy tone.

Since returning from Shi's Nursing Home, she has actually been unable to sleep for the past few days.

It can be said that it is difficult to sleep and eat.

It's not that he is afraid that Mr. Ding's death will completely disrupt the business of Shi's Nursing Home.

even have adverse effects.

She is not afraid of these, but she is afraid that some people have ulterior motives and want to take this opportunity to destroy Shi Group's next market development plan.

In that case, the Shi Group will be in a passive position.

"Okay! Give me your address, we'll meet on time tomorrow." Liu Mang yawned and said in a low voice, "If there's nothing else, then I'll hang up."

"and many more!"

When Shi Shini heard that Liu Mang was going to hang up the phone, for some reason, she subconsciously yelled to wait, thinking that she had something to say, but she couldn't remember what she wanted to say.

Suddenly feel a little embarrassed.

"Is there anything else?" Liu Mang asked, he really wanted to hear, did Shi Shini have anything else to ask him for!
If there is, of course it would be the best, so as to gain a deeper understanding of Shi Shini's personality.

"No, I forgot!" Shi Shini was stunned for a moment before hanging up the phone.

Walking to the window, Shi Shini looked at the heated swimming pool downstairs, and her eyes fell on her parents and grandparents not far away.

I wonder if I should tell my parents about tomorrow's memorial service for Mr. Ding.

Grandpa and grandma knew Mr. Ding, but their friendship was average. At that time, Mr. Ding was still in charge of Ding's group, while Shi's group was already under the control of her parents, not grandparents.

Therefore, Mr. Ding has no friendship with his grandparents.

On the contrary, he has friendship with his parents, and it is very deep.

"Dad, do you want to go to the memorial service for Mr. Ding tomorrow?"

After thinking about it, no matter what happened to this matter, she still had to tell her parents first, it was her parents' business to go or not, and she had no control over it.

"no need."

Shi Shini's father shook his head and said, "Just go, what am I going to say? Seeing Lao Ding's son-in-law makes me feel uncomfortable."

The two elders actually respect Ding Lao very much.

But for Mr. Ding's son-in-law, he doesn't want to deal with him.

"Oh!"

Thinking of Mr. Ding's son-in-law, Shi Shini groaned, and said no more: "Then I will go to mourn Mr. Ding's funeral tomorrow on behalf of the Shi Group."

"Well, let's go! Stop dealing with Ding's Group in the future, and cut off all the business that can be cut off! Ding Lao's son-in-law is not a simple role. You are a girl and you are so young. It is easy to deal with him. It fell into the pit." The father said in a deep voice.

Ding Group, ever since Mr. Ding resigned and handed over the entire group to his son-in-law, Shi Shini's father, who had not yet retired at the time, since Ding resigned, the cooperation with Ding's Group has been slowly declining. Began to gradually disconnect and never cooperate again.

Elder Ding actually knew about this.

He had clearly talked to Mr. Ding at that time, so the Shi Group only recognized Mr. Ding. If Mr. Ding resigned, they would not cooperate with the Ding Group.

Because the cooperation between Ding's Group and Shi's Group involves the amount of money involved in the operation of the project, it is not simply tens of millions, but five or six billion.

They wouldn't cooperate if it wasn't someone they could trust.

Afraid of being cheated.

So once Ding Lao left office, the cooperation between the Shi Group and the Ding Group has been decreasing, and until now, it is almost completely gone.

"Dad, I get it. I'm not a three-year-old kid. Don't you know all this?"

Shi Shini said impatiently: "I really don't understand what kind of grudge you have with Mr. Ding's son-in-law."

resentment?
The old man shook his head.

Father Shi said indifferently: "In fact, I have no enmity with Mr. Ding's son-in-law, it's just that I don't quite approve of this person."

"Okay! Stop talking."

Shi Shini also didn't want to know about the grievances of the older generation.

Anyway, the Shi Group is now under her control. As long as her parents don't interfere too much and don't affect the company's operations, for the sake of her parents' happiness and peace of mind, if she doesn't cooperate with the Ding Group, then don't follow her!
Anyway, it's not like their Shi Group can't survive without the Ding Group.

"Old Ding's death must not be covered up. No matter how much he buried it without announcing it, the social network is so developed now that it will definitely leak out. There will definitely be a lot of people who eat melons and talk nonsense."

"So you have to issue an order, but all employees in the Shi Group are not allowed to talk about anything about the Shi Group, especially business or cooperation. If there is any discussion, they will be fined, and those who are serious will be directly expelled."

Father Shi thought for a while, and felt that it was better to give orders in advance for some things.

"Dad, is it necessary?" Her father was so cautious that Shi Shini panicked for no reason.

Could it be that something will really happen?
"People's words are terrible, do you understand! What's more, with your IQ and education level, once you meet Ding Lao's son-in-law, you will not be an opponent at the same level, but a scumbag. It is of course a good thing to be able to prevent it in advance. "Father Shi said lightly.

Being belittled by her parents like this, Shi Shini couldn't be happy in her heart.

But she has to admit that the chairman and general manager of the Ding Group, who is also the son-in-law of Mr. Ding, is really an extremely powerful character.

It's not easy to fool or deal with.

"Okay, okay! I see, I'm going back to my room first."

Shi Shini turned and walked away speechlessly.

After Liu Mang hung up the phone, he stood up and sat up, rubbing his temples with his hands, thinking that this memorial service might not be so easy to go to.

Even if Shi Shini took him in, the person went in, but the situation still couldn't change the embarrassment.

After all, he doesn't know anyone except Shi Shini.Similarly, others probably don't know him.

Ten minutes later, Xiaodoubi came.

"Brother, you seem to have something on your mind, what's the matter?"

As soon as Xiao Doubi entered the door, he saw Liu Mang's serious face, an ugly one.

Ever since Xiaodoubi knew Liu Mang, he had never seen Liu Mang's frowning, gloomy and livid face.

"fine!"

Liu Mang shook his head: "I'm going to attend Ding Lao's memorial service tomorrow, and I'll go with Shi Shini. I'm thinking, if someone asks me tomorrow, how should I explain it? After all, this memorial service has not been publicized , In other words, there are not many people who know about the death of Ding Lao, and those who can go are probably people who have a deep relationship with Ding Lao or the Ding Group."
