Don't follow the rules

The breakthrough he finally found was rejected by the speed of light again. Ning Yao squatted down depressedly and drew circles with his fingers.

"No public defecation." Geng Xun kicked him in the butt.

"I didn't!" Ning Yao yelled, covering her butt.

Geng Xun was not used to Ning Yao at all, and was too lazy to pay attention to his pretentiousness. He looked down at his watch impatiently: "Stop chattering and get up quickly. It's getting late. I'll call someone to accompany you to continue to survey the scene. I'll leave first. .”

Ning Yao got up from the ground: "Hey, what are you doing?"

"Look at what nonsense you are asking. There are a room of suspects over there waiting for me to interrogate. I don't dare to spend all my energy on you. Just continue to investigate at the scene and remember to find any clues. Tell me in time."

Ning Yao grabbed Geng Xun's sleeve: "How can I contact you?"

Geng Xun brushed his hand away in disgust: "Just tell the police officer accompanying you directly, and he will tell me."

An Han: [Has the monitoring equipment been installed? 】

Ning Yao: "Okay."

Geng Xun: "Then I'll go over first. My teammates will be here soon. Don't wander around."

Ning Yao didn't show any more cleverness, just nodded, looking very obedient: "Okay."

Geng Xun turned around and prepared to go downstairs, but he always felt that something was not right. He couldn't help but look back and glanced at Ning Yao. Seeing that he was still standing there honestly, he felt more and more uneasy.

He raised an eyebrow slightly and warned: "Don't wander around."

Ning Yao raised his hand to assure: "Captain Geng, don't worry."

Geng Xun took a few steps back and forth, but Ning Yao still stood obediently and even waved goodbye to him.

"Damn, it won't take more than a few minutes. I'll accompany you and wait for someone to come over." Geng Xun jumped back.

Ning Yao knew it and asked, "Why are you back?"

Geng Xun: "I'm afraid you'll eat the corpse."

"Hey!" Ning Yao put her hands on her hips.

"Captain Geng!" A man trotted over and started calling Geng Xun loudly from a distance.

Geng Xun responded to him by waving his hand.

The man was tall and burly, and looked like Li Kui. He was respectful to Geng Xun, but he didn't have a good look towards Ning Yao.

"Captain Geng, are you just staring at this?" the man asked.

Geng Xun let out an "arrogant" sound and slipped Ning Yaoti in front of the strong man: "Lu Yi, just follow him. Help him survey but don't let him destroy the scene."

Lu Yi shook his head from side to side and made a clear crackling sound on his neck: "Understood, Captain Geng, you can go about your business without worries. I will keep an eye on this person for you."

Ning Yao thought thoughtfully: "Why does this name sound familiar?"

An Han: [Bus No. 4, one of the passengers on your first bus]

Ning Yao curled her lips and whispered: "Another one..."

Lu Yi's voice was like thunder: "What are you chirping about? Louder!"

Ning Yao immediately stood up straight, put his index fingers on the seam of his trousers, held his head high, and replied with great energy: "Brother Lu, okay!"

Lu Yi nodded with satisfaction: "Very good! Very energetic!"

Seeing that the two of them were getting along well, Geng Xun finally felt relieved and held the intercom: "Attention team members in the big conference room, I will give you five minutes to organize and take everyone to the small reception room separately."

"Roger that." came the response from the intercom. Geng Xun rubbed his brows, walked quickly to the elevator door and pressed the button. He took out a cigarette and lit it while the elevator was climbing. He took a few quick puffs on the vertical ashtray and trash can at the door of the elevator.

When the elevator door opened, he casually put out the cigarette butt in the ashtray, turned his head and blew out the smoke outside the door, took a deep breath, regained his energy, and entered a new battlefield.

"Team Geng. There are plenty of empty rooms here, so we have been a little extravagant and arranged a separate room for each of them. The record-keeping personnel are already in place and are waiting for you." A police officer handed Geng Xun a Freshly compiled information.

Geng Xun took it and flipped through it without stopping: "Which room is Tan Ai in?"

The police officer quickened his pace and led the way: "This way."

Tan Ai stared blankly at the empty chair opposite the table. He was completely blank and couldn't tell what he was thinking. It wasn't until the sound of pushing the door behind him that he was brought back from his wandering thoughts.

"Sir..." He subconsciously stood up to greet him.

"No, no, please sit down." Geng Xun walked away in a hurry, a pile of information clattered on the table, and he sat directly on the empty chair opposite him. The recorder silently found a corner, opened his notebook, and prepared to start recording their conversation.

"Hello, Mr. Tan Ai." Geng Xun greeted briefly and immediately got to the point.

"We checked the deceased's recent fund movements and found that a large amount of money was transferred from his personal account to your personal account. This does not seem like corporate behavior. Do you have any explanation for this? "

Tan Ai smiled bitterly: "I knew I couldn't hide it..."

Although Geng Xun was anxious, he did not press forward with any questions. He just waited quietly. For a moment, the only sound in the room was the tapping of the recorder's keyboard. Soon, even the tapping stopped.

Tan Ai seemed to have regained his courage: "Master Chi Zhongwu, he bought something from me."

"What is it?" Geng Xun asked. "With all due respect, we have also done a little research on your life background..."

"I understand," Tan Ai interrupted him, "My family is indeed not rich, and it doesn't look like a family that can afford anything valuable."

"But that thing may not be worth a penny to others, but it is worth tens of thousands of gold to Mr. Chi."

"So what is it?" Geng Xun tapped his nails on the table impatiently.

Tan Ai paused: "Sorry, that's a secret. All I can say is that all the information about that thing has been bought out by Mr. Chi, the deal has been established, and I can't breach the contract even if the customer dies. Besides, I'm still a lawyer , let alone break the law without knowing it.”

Geng Xun knew that it was not so easy to get useful information. He thought for a while and changed his angle.

"Is this the package Chen Heng went to pick up from you?"

Tan Ai pursed his lips, seeming to be thinking about how to answer this question without revealing the secret.

Geng Xun smiled: "Relax, don't be so nervous. You can completely trust the professional ethics of the police. The content of our conversation is absolutely confidential."

"Of course I trust your professional ethics, but I also have professional ethics, and I hope my superiors will understand me." Tan Ai still insisted.

"Okay" Geng Xun shrugged. "You just said that the transaction between you and the deceased has been established, so can I understand that the deceased has obtained the goods? After all, the transaction is only established when the money and goods are paid, right?"

Tan Ai nodded slightly hesitantly.

"very good."

Geng Xun continued: "Let me first assume that the package you gave Chen Heng is 'that thing'. Since the transaction is established, it means that the deceased got the package - Chen Heng concealed the fact that he saw the deceased after 4:30 .”

"If 'that thing' is not the package you handed over, then there are two possibilities:"

"First, it is some kind of virtual item, and your transaction does not require real contact;"

"Second, it is an entity, but it is not a package handled by Chen Heng, and the deceased received it, which means that it can only be delivered to the deceased by you personally."

"This shows that you had contact with the deceased outside surveillance after 4:30, and you concealed this matter from the police in your previous confession."
