Serious Crime Unit 1

Chapter 1171 Death of Chairman (6)
Ten minutes later, Julia walked down the wide crescent-shaped staircase. She held the handrail of the staircase with one hand and pressed the other hand on her chest, as if she had a heart problem.She walked down slowly, looking at the steps as if she was afraid of falling.

She walked to sit down in front of them and said feebly: "You two police officers have been kept waiting for a long time. How about you drink tea? I asked Aying to come down and make tea for you. I am too weak to serve you now. I really can't serve you." Sorry."

"Ms. Zhu, you're welcome. We just had tea. If there are outsiders around, it's inconvenient to ask." Wu Jiang glanced at her and was slightly surprised: she was listless, like an eggplant beaten by frost in autumn, and her face and lips were very pale. His eyes were filled with deep sadness, as thick as glue that couldn't be melted away.

"Officer Wu, have you found the murderer of my husband?" She looked at Wu Jiang longingly.

"I'm sorry, solving the case is a very difficult and complicated process that requires a lot of police power, material resources and time. However, don't worry, we will definitely arrest the murderer and bring you comfort... Do you know Tong Mingshang? Do you have any enemies?"

"Enemies? There should be no enemies, right? How much hatred must there be to kill my husband?"

"Has Tong Mingshang ever offended anyone?" Wu Jiang asked in a different way.

"Our company was established in 1998 with only 200 million yuan invested at the beginning. Over the past 24 years, the company has continued to grow and now has 20 billion assets. In the process of capital expansion, we will definitely offend people. My husband is very smart and he will try his best to A way to defeat the competition... Alas, the past is like smoke, and I can't bear to look back." She reached out and pinched her temples, tears overflowing from her eyes. She didn't know what sad past events she remembered.

"What exactly does Xiongfa Energy Group Company do?"

“In the beginning, we started to operate whatever made money, such as buying forests, building hydropower stations, buying coal, original stocks, and mining various rare ores... There are so many varieties that I can’t finish them all at once. The fastest development of our company was in the early mining of Hongtou Mountain. There are a large amount of molybdenum ore and tungsten ore. These two minerals are located in Hongtou Mountain in Guping Village, Dongliang Town, Bei City. They have been mined continuously for 15 years. Later, the country started to engage in green industry, and we were forced to stop mining, but our company has already made money. Around 10 billion yuan is a lot of money.”

"The company must have offended many people in the process of mining ores, right?" Wu Jiang thought about the case where Zhou Ting's father, Zhou Shan, ran a chemical factory in a mountain village, causing many local villagers to suffer from cancer and causing death. sad.Because mining ore will definitely destroy vegetation and pollute water sources, it may offend local villagers.

“Yes, when we mined molybdenum and tungsten mines, we destroyed a large amount of forests and farmland, and polluted two rivers. However, with the support of the local government, our company gave local villagers reasonable subsidies and compensation, and worked with The village committee has signed a contract, and it should be impossible for any villager to trap my husband for this. Moreover, we have not mined ores for eight years..." She suddenly stopped and patted her chest, spitting into the automatic trash can, and said as she spat. , "I'm sorry, I've been feeling nauseous since my husband was killed."

"It doesn't matter. This is a phenomenon caused by a huge psychological and physical blow. This person has passed away and cannot be brought back to life. Please express my condolences... What is your company mainly engaged in now?" Wu Jiang felt that the possibility of villagers retaliating and killing was relatively small, because one A humble villager cannot ask the chairman of a group company to go deep into the jungle.

“Since the country allowed private enterprises to mine and purchase oil and natural gas, our company has invested mainly in the trade of oil and natural gas. We mainly purchase crude oil from a Saudi oil company called Tebi, and then transport it to the refinery for refining. Although the profit from refined oil products is not very high, it can earn [-]-[-] million yuan per year."

"Wow, your company is so powerful. I heard that private oil refining companies have a hard time surviving. I didn't expect your company to make so much money a year... Does the company have other businesses?"

"Yes, we bought 10000 acres of mature fir forest in Xigu Town, Xiyan City the year before last. At that time, we bought it for 4500 yuan per acre. Now we can sell it for 7000 yuan per acre. Firstly, because the fir trees have grown up; secondly, because Inflation has caused the price of fir to also rise. Of course, this requires the ability to predict the market."

"I heard that oil refining requires strong capital. Is your company capable?"

"Our company borrowed money from various banks and used fir forests, minerals, refineries, stocks, and real estate as mortgages to the banks. We borrowed nearly 15 billion yuan from them. Adding the company's 10 billion yuan of working capital, it is enough to turn around... We are very lucky. Yes, the war broke out between Russia and Ukraine on February 2. It has only been 24 days now. Oil and natural gas prices have skyrocketed by 12%, and we expect it to rise to about 15%... Oh, I think of someone..." Julia stopped suddenly , lost in thought.

"Who?" Wu Jiang looked at her and searched.

"His name is Ma Yuanshan. In early February 2020, when our company was preparing to bid for the fir forest in Xigu Town, Xiyan City, there was a purchasing company named Yuanshan who was our strongest competitor. My husband called him here After discussion, they offered him 2 million yuan and asked him not to participate in the bidding, but general manager Ma Yuanshan disagreed. "A week before the bidding day, something happened to Ma Yuanshan. While he was dancing at the Black Cat Disco, his head was raped by two gangsters. He was injured by a foreign wine bottle and was sent to the hospital for rescue. As a result, the doctor diagnosed him with a moderate concussion and he stayed in the hospital for half a month before being discharged. Therefore, he missed the bidding and our company successfully purchased the fir forest.

"The two gangsters who beat him were arrested and brought to justice by the police. They compensated Ma Yuanshan's medical expenses and were sentenced to six months in prison. However, Ma Yuanshan believed that my husband hired the two gangsters to beat him, causing him to miss the bid and lose tens of millions of yuan. , he asked the police handling the case to investigate closely and compensate him for his losses.

"The police from the Jiangnan District Branch began to interrogate the two gangsters, but they unanimously said that Ma Yuanshan bumped into one of them named Lin Xuxiao while dancing, and Lin Xuxiao got angry and picked up a bottle to hit him. From the surveillance video Zhong did see Ma Yuanshan hit Lin Xuxiao, and Ma Yuanshan said that he was pushed by another gangster named Peng Fei before hitting Lin Xuxiao. However, surveillance video proved that Gu Fei did not push Ma Yuanshan, because on the dance floor The lights flickered on and off, and there were so many people that the monitor did not capture the real situation.

"In the end, the police from the Jiangnan District Branch did not hold Lin Xuxiao and Peng Fei accountable, so the judge only sentenced them to six months in prison. This made Ma Yuanshan very angry and came to my husband's office to threaten him, he said I'm going to kill my husband one day.

"My husband has a very strong character and never falls for his tricks, so he asked the security guards to drag Ma Yuanshan out of the company and beat him up. From then on, Ma Yuanshan did not dare to make trouble again because he knew that my husband was supported by high-ranking officials. So, he gave up... Will he hold a grudge and kill my husband because of this?" She raised her head slightly and looked at Wu Jiang.

"This is a good clue. We will investigate. Have you asked Tong Mingshang if he hired Lin Xuxiao and Peng Fei to fight Ma Yuanshan? I hope you can tell the truth. This is very important for us to handle the case. .”

"I asked my husband, but he didn't admit it or deny it. He just told me not to interfere with the company's affairs, to take care of my husband and children, and to enjoy life. So, I didn't dare to go into it further. However, based on my relationship with my husband, Knowing his work style, he might hire Lin Xuxiao and Peng Fei to send Ma Yuanshan to the hospital."

"Does he have any other enemies?"

"Ever since I got married, I have rarely been involved in the company's affairs. Unless there is something major, I will ask my husband about the situation... I feel completely confused and confused, and my thinking ability is also very poor. I suddenly thought If I can't afford anything else, I'll contact you again when I think of something suspicious." She leaned her head back against the back of the sofa and closed her eyes, as if she couldn't raise her head.

Seeing her like this, Wu Jiang handed her a business card and said goodbye.

After they walked out of Julia's house, Xiao Ke asked: "Brother Angkor, do you think Ma Yuanshan will kill Tong Mingshang?"

"He has a great motive for killing, but it is impossible for him to invite Tong Mingshang to the deep mountains and old forests to kill him, because Tong Mingshang will not believe Ma Yuanshan, but Ma Yuanshan may use people who are very good with Tong Mingshang , invited him to the scene and killed him. Luo Jin said that the murderer might also be a man, and this man might be Ma Yuanshan. "

"That's not right. There are only two shoe prints at the scene. One is that of Tong Mingshang and the other is that of the murderer. The gait was left by a woman. Your reasoning is not logical." Xiao Ke did not expect that Wu Jiang would say To say such ridiculous things.

"Haha, we should handle cases as if we were writing novels. We should have a rich imagination, make bold assumptions, and carefully verify evidence. This is our principle in handling cases... What if the murderer doesn't need to leave shoe prints at the scene?" Wu Jiang was telling the story.

"Even if the murderer knows light kung fu like a martial arts master, he will still leave footprints on the soft soil. Team Jiang and Zhou Ting have already investigated and found that the sky above Butterfly Valley is a no-fly zone. No one dares to take a helicopter to the scene to commit the crime. Because there is a civil aviation aircraft monitoring point on Longtoushan, monitoring the no-fly zone 24 hours a day.”

"Why can't we figure out whether the murderer is a man or a woman? We assume that the woman invited Tong Mingshang to the crime scene, got him drunk, and then left. The male murderer ran out and stabbed Tong Mingshang with a dagger. Enter Tong Mingshang's heart, so that it is not inconsistent with the traces extracted at the scene..."

"No, it's still contradictory, because there are only two kinds of footprints at the scene!" Xiao Ke still couldn't understand why Wu Jiang said this.
