Detective Files II

Chapter 55
After hearing Tian Mi's words, Zhao Jiping didn't say anything, just laughed out loud.Tian Mi was a little taken aback by his smile.

"What are you laughing at?" She asked puzzled.

"I laughed at the police officer, you are too naive." Zhao Jiping stopped laughing and rubbed his cheeks with his hands: "What age is this? What does it mean for a man and a woman to hug each other? What's more, in that kind of environment and on that occasion Next, let's have fun, drink some wine, and get emotionally high, who would care so much. And to be honest, I did drink a little too much that night. If you don't show me this photo, I will almost die I remember going to that party, let alone cuddling someone."

"So, you don't have any impression of Qiao Qiong?"

"That's out of the question," Zhao Jiping said, and then immediately added: "I mean, they are all colleagues in the same company. If you look down and see you, if you want to know more, it's definitely out of the question, but neither There is no impression at all.”

"So that's how it is," Tian Mi seemed to agree with Zhao Jiping's statement, nodded, and stood up: "Since that's the case, then we won't bother you any more! I'm sorry for taking up your precious time, you can keep busy!"

Zhao Jiping quickly followed suit and stood up, making a gesture to send a few people away, not forgetting to be polite: "Where, I am ashamed, and I couldn't help. I have always admired the police since I was a child, and I hope to A good citizen who can help the police, but in the end, alas, shame on you, let you go for nothing!"

"It's nothing, you've already cooperated with us very well, if everyone can be like you, our investigation work will be much easier!" Tian Mi smiled gently.

An Changpu knew that Tian Mi's words were insincere, he didn't know what calculations Tian Mi had in mind, and he also knew that she would not act recklessly without consideration, so he simply followed Tian Mi out without saying a word.

When Tian Mi declined repeatedly, Zhao Jiping insisted on sending the three of them to the elevator and waited until the elevator came up.

"Those three walk slowly, I'll see you off soon! If there's anything I can do for you, just ask, and I'll do my best!" Tian Mi and the others walked into the elevator, Zhao Jiping still kept saying polite words.

Lu Xiangdong, who had been silent all this time, suddenly spoke up: "What do you think of Lin Xiang?"

"Who?" Zhao Jiping was suddenly stopped by his question, looking very confused.

"Lin Xiang," Lu Xiangdong repeated and further explained: "Qiao Qiong's fiancé."

"Qiao Qiong's fiancé?" Zhao Jiping's tone was slightly surprised, and then he shook his head: "I don't know this person."

Lu Xiangdong nodded slightly, and didn't intend to ask any more questions. Tian Mi exchanged some polite words with Zhao Jiping before saying goodbye. Zhao Jiping returned to the office, and the three of them took the elevator downstairs and left the office building.

"Changpu, did you see the back of Zhao Jiping's neck?" Tian Mi, who was silent all the way in the car, asked An Changpu.

An Changpu responded, and replied: "I see, there is indeed a blue birthmark, so it is very likely that he is the man who was seen by the old man at the door of Qiao Qiong's house that day?"

"That's what I think."

"Then you are playing hard to get?"

"It's about the same. I think the relationship between Zhao Jiping and Qiao Qiong is definitely not as light as he said, and it's definitely not the so-called flirting of modern urban men and women!" Tian Mi's expression was rarely serious, and she frowned slightly to express her point of view: " I always feel that he is avoiding him all the time, for fear that I will get involved with Qiao Qiong. He has been like this since the first time I met him in this company, and this time it is more obvious. At first I thought he was just the kind that most people have. A fearful mentality, but after today's discovery and conversation, I don't think it's that simple."

"That's right, this Zhao Jiping is an old fritter!" An Changpu agrees with Tian Mi's point of view: "Look at him today, he is obviously very wary of our appearance, and the click of the ballpoint pen is clicking, and he is extremely nervous Yes! But just like this, he can still deal with it freely, how can he lie without drafting it?"

"Who said he lied and didn't write drafts?" Lu Xiangdong snorted contemptuously, not targeting An Changpu, but contemptuous of Zhao Jiping's behavior: "He may be a double-faced person, but his methods are too rudimentary to be considered a big deal. Old fritters."

"Dr. Lu, can you tell me?" An Changpu didn't feel that Lu Xiangdong was at odds with him like Tian Mi did. Instead, he held an attitude of respect and admiration. Hearing what he said, he immediately asked for advice humbly.

Lu Xiangdong didn't try to be mysterious, and said concisely: "Generally speaking, when people are young, when their minds cannot respond quickly to questions and find out the correct or beneficial answers, they will choose to use 'um', Monosyllables such as 'ah', which have no practical meaning, prolong the response time, so as to buy enough time for thinking. Of course, this stage is obviously too childish for an adult like Zhao Jiping, so he chose a relatively more adult Ways of being less human - interrupting others' speech, and covering up embarrassment with fake smiles."

When he said these words, An Changpu and Tian Mi were silent, listening quietly and earnestly to his further detailed analysis.

"Zhao Jiping's momentary emotional change when he saw us coming has shown that he has not forgotten Tian Mi, on the contrary, he has a clear impression of her and her identity, and thus guessed our purpose. After that, Tian Mi When trying to speak, he gave us his seat twice to change the topic, which is actually a kind of evasive instinct, wanting to buy more time for himself to think about the solution." Lu Xiangdong explained his analysis of Zhao Jiping in detail: "Tian Mi falsely claimed that someone pointed out that the back in the photo was Zhao Jiping himself, and questioned why Zhao denied knowing Qiao Qiong when the two were clearly embracing each other. This question made Zhao Jiping speechless at the first moment, and he could not immediately Find a reasonable excuse to cover it up, and delay it with a fake smile."

"Last time, people in the finance department said that Zhao Jiping often went to the finance department because of business matters. No matter what happened, it was impossible for him not to know Qiao Qiong at all. This is completely illogical!" Tian Mi said with emotion: "At first he said I don’t remember that we met before, the look in his eyes is firm! If he hadn’t acted too much later and made himself and Qiao Qiong too clear, maybe I would really believe it!”

"Avoiding eye contact is the same as being too firm, both are abnormal and represent a guilty conscience." Lu Xiangdong said bluntly: "The former is for fear of being discovered by others, while the latter is to observe the listener's degree of belief in his lies. "

"What's your plan now?" An Changpu asked Tian Mi.

"Go back and report the situation to senior brother first." Tian Mi had already made up her mind about this matter: "Since Zhao Jiping wants to play tricks, let's cooperate with him and continue to play the show. When the evidence is almost collected, we will call him to ask for clarification. At that time, all the roads will be blocked, I see how he can get away with it."
