deep white secret

Chapter 149 Knowing This Person

Xu Jie looked around and then said:

"Mr. Li, my investigation here takes a long time. Everyone I want to see in the club has to be questioned one by one. Your place is a private space. I'd better change to another place."

Li Wenhai also felt a little regretful just now. After all, this is where he handles club affairs. If something unexpected happens during Xu Jie's investigation, it will be difficult to explain.

Li Wenhai rubbed his belly and sighed to himself. He didn't know what was going on recently. He always wanted to get close to the police. This was not a good sign.

Li Wenhai smiled:
"Either way, my coming in and out here affects your work. Where does Captain Xu think it's better to go?"

"Now the direction of the investigation is clear. I also have a target for who I need to see. Let's go to where Meng Xiangren works."

Li Wenhai didn't shirk anymore. After some pleasantries, he ordered his men to lead Xu Jie the way.

When walking out of Li Wenhai's room, Xu Jie suddenly said:
"I forgot to tell Mr. Li that during Meng Xiangren's autopsy, marijuana was found in his body. We suspect that Meng Xiangren is a drug addict. The bureau attaches great importance to this case, so the city will launch a major operation in a few days. At that time, domestic and international flights, water and land, etc. will Investigate rigorously and hope to find the murderer as soon as possible."

Li Wenhai had a smile on his face and nodded frequently:
"Thank you for your hard work. We will catch the real culprit as soon as possible. We will do whatever is needed, Captain Xu, just say whatever you want."

Xu Jie walked into the bar and saw Ning Xia standing at the door.

Ning Xia was wearing the dark red uniform of the club, which outlined her graceful figure. Xu Jie's heart beat twice.

Ning Xia's makeup is not exaggerated, but she still looks like a different person than before without makeup.

Xu Jie looked away calmly. It was time to solve the case as soon as possible and let her girl go home.

When Ningxia saw Xu Jie striding into the bar, her heart beat like a drum.

Why is Xu Jie here?

Looking at Xu Jie, thousands of words came to Ningxia's heart.

Xu Jie was followed by a young man who was often beside Li Wenhai. Ningxia quickly lowered his head and pretended to welcome the guests.

Xu Jie walked into the bar, his mind up and down.

Although he meets Ning Xia at breakfast every day, it is different now. Xu Jie has truly entered the place where Ning Xia works every day.

Breathing the same air, Xu Jie will be very specific when he misses her.

Specifically, where Ningxia will stand, in which direction the bar is, and who she faces every day.

Ning Xia endured the thumping of her heart and followed Xu Jie's figure with her eyes.

Xu Jie exchanged a few words with the man next to Li Wenhai, then walked to a corner near the bar and sat down.

Xu Jie and Ning Xia's eyes met again in the air. Ning Xia suppressed her excitement and turned her head to look away.

After Ningxia's eyes circled around before going back, she saw tonight's bartender sitting in front of Xu Jie.

Xu Jie asked what, the bartender stared at a picture in his hand and shook his head frequently.

Ningxia has been observing the progress on Xu Jie's side. The bartenders have finished talking to Xu Jie one after another, and the waiters have also gone over to ask questions one by one.

The people in the bar took turns to come in front of Xu Jie, and Ningxia understood that there must be progress in the case.

Xu Jie asked everyone to identify the portrait. Could it be that the suspect has been identified?

Ningxia was a little excited, a little sweet, a little sad, and a little nervous.

Ning Xia's eyes met with Xu Jie's from time to time, and Ning Xia understood the deep feelings inside.

Ningxia lowered her head and covered her mouth when no one was paying attention. She believed that Xu Jie came to see her in the name of investigating the case.

Finally it was Ningxia's turn.

Ning Xia cleared her throat, pretended to be cautious and walked slowly over, sitting sideways opposite Xu Jie.

The dim lights of the bar shone on Xu Jie's face, which did not diminish his shrewd eyes. Xu Jie looked deeper and more haggard than before Ning Xia came to the Ruby Club.

Ning Xia was inexplicably nervous. She was facing the challenge here, and so was Xu Jie. Xu Jie was even more stressed than herself because she was worried about herself.

"I am Xu Jie, captain of the Jinghai City Criminal Investigation Team. I'm here to ask you a few questions."

After Xu Jie introduced himself, he glanced at Li Wenhai's subordinate who had been standing beside him.

The man had his hands behind his back and was staring at Xu Jie curiously.

Xu Jie lowered his face and looked at Ningxia. The two of them heard the low-decibel music from the bar. Xu Jie asked:

"According to our investigation, you are Meng Xiangren's sister?"

Ningxia nodded.

"The case is making some progress now. Have you met this person?"

After Xu Jie finished speaking, he pointed out the portrait of the suspect drawn by the criminal investigation team to Ning Xia.

Ning Xia couldn't wait to take it, took a closer look, and was stunned in place.

This person... She knows it!

Gao Meiqi!
But how could it be Gao Meiqi?
What is Xu Jie doing?
Ningxia was speechless for a moment, and suddenly remembered that the first time she met Gao Meiqi by chance was in the elevator of the Royal Garden Hotel.

Gao Meiqi killed Meng Xiangren?

But how could Gao Meiqi kill Meng Xiangren?How could they be related?

Intricate clues and questions spewed out in Ningxia's mind.

After a long while, Ningxia tried to calm down and asked Xu Jie in disbelief:

"Is this the murderer of my brother?"

Xu Jie realized that the situation was unusual. Ning Xia's expression said everything. She knew this person.

"you know?"

Ning Xia looked at the man behind Xu Jie, moved on the chair, and covered her chest with one hand. Ning Xia quickly considered how to make Xu Jie understand.

"How should I put it? I met once, in the elevator..."

Ning Xia remembered that only Li Wenhai asked her when she came to Jinghai City, and she answered that it was the day she joined the company.

If they met in the elevator before answering now, once the man behind Xu Jie tells Li Wenhai this information, his identity may be exposed.

Ningxia took a deep look at Xu Jie and wanted to say to Xu Jie:
Elevator, we met Gao Meiqi by chance in the elevator. At that time, you were still feeling that the encounter in life was full of mysteries.

Ningxia tried hard to think about the timeline and various possibilities, and finally said:

"After I came to Jinghai City, I went to the Royal Garden Hotel to pack my brother's things. I can't remember, but I saw this woman in the elevator. She said at that time that there was a murder in the hotel and she couldn't stay there... The elevator of the hotel was shaking. The quality is not good.”

Xu Jie knew that Ningxia was making up a story, but what message was her story conveying?

elevator?

Ningxia repeatedly emphasized the word elevator.

This woman has something to do with the elevator?
Ningxia emphasized her tone and said:

"Officer, this woman said that the hotel where the murder occurred was not clean. She also said that meeting me was fate. She thought I was a tourist coming to the hotel and kept trying to persuade me to change my stay."

Xu Jie listened carefully, capturing every word in Ningxia dialect:

"At that time, I was still thinking about how embarrassed she would be if she knew that the person who had the accident was my brother. She could say so many things to me, a stranger, at that time. I thought she was a good person. How could I know that she was actually the murderer."

"Officer, it's wonderful how people meet each other. We always say in our hometown that mountains and rivers can't change."

Ningxia put a hand on her forehead:
"To be honest, when we met by chance, I thought this woman was a little nervous when she spoke. How could I have imagined that she was the murderer of my brother?"

After Ning Xia finished speaking, she looked at Xu Jie faintly.

In the flash of lightning, Xu Jie remembered that he had said these words. It was on the day when his parents were preparing to leave Jinghai that they met someone in the elevator, a classmate from Ningxia.

that person……

It seems that Ningxia called her name at that time: Gao Meiqi!

By the way, it was that girl that day!

Gao Meiqi!
But that's wrong. The information that Ma Mingjie found was that the person who rented room 5120 that night was named Gao Lu, not Gao Meiqi.

Gao Lu?Gao Meiqi?

They are all surnamed Gao, could it be the same person using a pseudonym?

Ningxia observed Xu Jie's unpredictable expression and knew that he had recalled Gao Meiqi.

Ningxia continued:

"Officer, it is often said that there are masters outside the mountains. If this woman really killed my brother, it is incomprehensible. How could such a beautiful girl do such a cruel thing? In fact, she can have a better life. Besides, she Who is it? How does she know my brother?"
