Mystery

Chapter 216 Zhang Qingshan's Investigation Reason
"You are investigating Zhu Xi's case with him? Why do you want to hide it?"

Qi Huan peeked nervously at Shen Ke, her expression was as calm as usual, and she couldn't tell whether she believed him or not.

He also didn't see the anger hidden by the people around her at all from her eyes.

Qi Huan was a little complicated in his heart. He was thinking that if Shen Ke was very angry, at least it would appear that he was her recognized friend... But after thinking about it, that kind of roaring appearance of a romantic drama would probably never appear on Shen Ke in this lifetime .

He thought, taking a deep breath.

"During the Ching Ming Festival this year, Zhang Qingshan found me. At that time, he was an intern reporter of Nanjiang Metropolis Daily. He couldn't talk to the General Administration. He usually went to various offices and wrote a piece of tofu."

"When I went to visit Peiming's grave, I worked as a police officer with peace of mind. Bureau Zhang asked me many times to transfer me to the bureau, but I didn't agree. I never thought about what Zhu Xi had. question."

"I never thought that there was something hidden behind Pei Ming's death."

On Qingming day, it began to rain lightly. When he arrived at the cemetery, Zhang Qingshan was already there.

He was wearing an earth coffee-colored jacket, holding a bouquet of white chrysanthemums in his hands, and his face was full of overwhelming sadness.

"Does Zhang Qingshan know Zhang Peiming?" Shen Ke asked curiously, Zhang Qingshan spoke emphatically, not like a native of Nanjiang.

Qi Huan shook his head, "No, he doesn't know him. He went to see his sister..."

As Qi Huan spoke, he paused, and looked at Shen Ke deeply. He hesitated for a moment, but couldn't help but said, "His sister is named Zhang Sijia... yes, she is the Zhang Sijia you think of."

Shen Ke's pupils shrank suddenly, "My aunt's name is Zhang Sijia."

Although Zhang Sijia and Lu Ye were not married, they had been in love for many years, and their wedding date had already been set.

She is her aunt.

Shen Ke still remembers that she was always wearing jeans and carrying a huge camera on her back, looking very hot.

Her hands tightened slightly, "Is that why you didn't tell me? Because of Zhang Sijia."

Qi Huan nodded, "Yes, at the beginning, we were not familiar with each other, and it was not easy for me to tell you about it. Besides, there was nothing about Zhu Xi and Zhang Sijia at that time. evidence."

"What about Zhang Sijia? What did Zhang Qingshan tell you?" Shen Ke asked.

Qi Huan did not give in.

"Zhang Qingshan told me that he suspected that his sister Zhang Sijia's death was not a suicide, but was silenced. Zhang Sijia used to be a reporter for the Metropolitan Daily, and she was talking about the Zhu Xi case at the time."

"He is much younger than Zhang Sijia, and has no impression of his sister. It's just that he also studied journalism in college. When he was looking for an internship unit, he looked through his sister's belongings and found her phone book."

At that time, it was very popular to write people's phone numbers in the address book, especially for journalists, who usually carried a notebook with them, and would record the interviewee's phone number, address, and some brief interview outlines.

"But when I was flipping through the phone book, I accidentally found a page with the words Zhu Xi written on it."

Shen Ke frowned. She was young at that time, and Zhang Sijia was busy with work, so it was impossible for her to come over and talk to her about work.

So she really didn't know that Zhang Sijia was investigating Zhu Xi's case at that time.

But it's normal to think about it. At that time, the news about Zhu Xi would have occupied one, two or three of Nanjiang's most searched lists if it were left in the present.The Internet was underdeveloped at that time, and newspapers were still the mainstream media.

Especially in-depth investigation reports can take up a lot of space. Zhang Sijia is a legal reporter, and it was very reasonable for her to investigate this at the time.

"After Zhang Qingshan came to the newspaper office, he began to quietly inquire about his sister. Back then, Zhang Sijia's teacher and another male reporter investigated together. You must remember that person's name, Yin Ming."

Shen Ke looked serious, she did remember the name Yin Ming.

This is the last case in Zhu Xi's case. A young couple was murdered in their own home.The hostess is named Feng Zhi, an employee of a securities company, and the host is named Yin Ming, a graduate of the Journalism Department of Nanjiang University and a social news reporter for Metropolis Daily.

"Zhang Sijia once told her teacher that she had a breakthrough at that time, and she might find out Zhu Xi's identity before the police. But Zhang Sijia committed suicide before the newspaper received the report."

"Not long after Zhang Sijia's death, Yin Ming was killed by Zhu Xi."

Shen Ke frowned tightly upon hearing this, "If Zhang Sijia and Yin Ming discovered Zhu Xi's identity together, why didn't Yin Ming go to the Public Security Bureau to seek protection after Zhang Sijia's death?"

"After Zhang Sijia's death, Yin Ming was killed almost half a month later."

"If Zhang Sijia discovered Zhu Xi's identity by himself, why was Yin Ming silenced?"

Hearing Shen Ke's question, Qi Huan couldn't help standing up abruptly. He forgot that he was sitting in the car now, and when he got up like this, he directly hit the roof of the car.

Qi Huan covered his head in pain, "Maybe Zhu Xi would rather kill a thousand by mistake than let one go."

"Zhang Sijia and Yin Ming are partners, and they are likely to share information. Although I don't understand why Yin Ming didn't call the police, he never even revealed to the police the slightest suspicion about Zhang Sijia's death."

Shen Ke shook her head, "Why wasn't Zhang Sijia's master silenced?"

If Zhu Xi was really like what Qi Huan said, he would rather kill a thousand by mistake than let one go, then Zhang Sijia's teacher cannot be missed.

Qi Huan listened and shook his head honestly, "To be honest, we haven't thought about this issue."

"Zhang Qingshan not only told me about Zhang Sijia, but also mentioned Pei Ming, because Zhu Xi's name reappeared on the forum...he suspects that Zhu Xi is still alive and at large."

"Zhang Qingshan invited me to re-investigate Zhu Xi's case together. He wanted to find out whether his sister Zhang Sijia committed suicide or was silenced."

As Qi Huan said, he lowered his head in shame, "I'm a policeman, so I can't sit idly by in the face of such a thing, and I also have selfish motives. Because this case involves Pei Ming and Bureau Zhang."

"I haven't investigated such a big case myself. Zhang Qingshan was still an intern reporter at that time. We didn't have any resources, so the investigation progress was very slow."

Now there is a set of procedures for investigating cases. Generally, when a criminal case occurs, the police officers in the jurisdiction will hand it over.

Especially important cases, cases that require cross-regional responsibility and powers are not clear, will be handed over to the criminal investigation team in the city; smaller cases, with clear jurisdiction, will be handed over to the criminal investigation team of each district. Shen Ke was the criminal investigation team in Nanjiang New District before. The reconnaissance team is the deputy captain.

"Then there was news internally that a special case team was to be established, so I applied."

"I'm sorry Shen Ke, I didn't hide it on purpose."
