    Chapter 128 Verkhovinsky (thirty-eight)

    Luo Wenzhou took out the cigarette case and looked down, only to realize that the last cigarette had been given to Lu Guosheng, and there was only a deflated empty case left in his hand.

    He was sitting in the interrogation room that attracted the attention of everyone, with the overheated heating heating his back, but he seemed to be in a mass grave in the wilderness, and he dug out an old rotten coffin with his own hands.

    Shocking, it almost took a long breath to sit still.

    Luo Wenzhou picked up the teacup and drank the cold water inside.

    "You said you burned the Louvre yourself," Luo Wenzhou said, clearing his throat, and said heavily, "And pushed it on a policeman? What's that policeman's name? When did this happen?"

    "It's been more than ten years... Fourteen, almost fifteen years." Lu Guosheng stretched out a finger and scratched his forehead, then pouted softly, "You ask me what the policeman is called? How do I know?"

    Luo Wenzhou slowly kneaded the empty cigarette case into a ball, kneading it back and forth in the palm of his hand a few times, then he tilted his head and glanced at the surveillance camera, as if there were a group of stunned onlookers through the small instrument. They looked at each other, and then he withdrew his somewhat condescending sitting posture without expression, and slowly pushed open the rotten cover of the "coffin".

    "Fourteen years ago, there was a criminal policeman in the city bureau named Gu Zhao, who was one of the main persons in charge of the 327 case. He found a mark that matched your fingerprints in the database at the scene of a fight, and he began to follow the clues and finally set his sights on the 'Louvre'."

    There was an uproar in the monitoring room, and someone blurted out, "What's the matter, Lao Lu, is there something going on?"

    "Wait, Gu Zhao... I remember that this person was not..."

    "How is this going?"

    "How did he know?"

    Lu Youliang didn't say a word, his whole person was like a solid stone statue.

    Luo Wenzhou: "However, the investigation has reached this point, and then it has ended. Gu Zhao died in the fire of the Louvre. He was suspected of intentional murder, extortion, and accepting bribes. The so-called 'fingerprints of wanted criminals' are only a tool for his extortion. It was covered up as a huge scandal to this day."

    Lu Guosheng recalled for a moment and nodded in agreement: "Almost, that's probably what it means."

    "So you did use the 'Louvre Museum' as a stronghold, and Gu Zhao was wronged." Luo Wenzhou said, "How did you do it?"

    Lu Guosheng recited the "not white injustice" twice, and shrugged at him: "Captain Luo, I'm just a small person, you ask me, who should I ask? If there was no such police as a shield, we would have It's all over, and I'm still scared."

    Xiao Haiyang occupied a small corner in the monitoring room, as if being poured over his head by a pot of hot white paint, his heart was a blank that burned his perception.

    The people around him, the voices, and even the whole world turned into a pot of porridge. After a while, he realized that he was being slammed into the corner by Fei Du.

    Fei Du pressed his shoulders with one hand and covered his mouth with the other, his brows seemed to be dyed with a layer of cold frost.

    Xiao Haiyang looked at his eyes that were close at hand, and felt that those eyes were like two indifferent pieces of glass, shimmering light at random, to see his own sullen and distorted face.

    He couldn't remember where he was for a while, couldn't remember whether he should be happy or angry, as if his mind had tripped briefly, but he was just at a loss.

    Burning dazed.

    I don't know how long it took before Fei Du let go of the hand that was holding him back. The lights in the monitoring room were dim. Everyone was shocked by Lu Guosheng's words. This small corner is enough to drown people in the sadness and hatred of drowning.

    For more than ten years, the string stretched in Xiao Haiyang's mind broke without warning, and the surging memory and pain roared, making him uncontrollably want to gasp and cry.

    But not yet.

    The timing is wrong, the occasion is wrong, and nothing is right.

    The Fei Du in front of him looked like a human-shaped seal, he grabbed his shaky rationality, and he stuffed the soul that he had shed a few times back into his body.

    Xiao Haiyang seemed to hear the sound of his skin being torn inch by inch, and he felt too painful.

    This made his six relatives stare at Fei Du in disbelief, and for a split second, he almost hated the other party.

    But Fei Du's gaze remained motionless, like two inescapable nails, ignoring all the other's thoughts, nailing him firmly, imprisoning him.

    Fei Du raised a forefinger silently, shook his head at Xiao Haiyang very lightly, moved his lips, and said, "Just bear with me."

    Luo Wenzhou let out a dull breath, and continued to ask: "Sun Jiaxing—that is, the former fraudster who used the pseudonym 'Sun Xin' after he was released from prison and worked as a welcome driver in Honeycomb—he said on his behalf, you often secretly With his car?"

    "Yes." Lu Guosheng nodded, "That person is timid and easy to talk. He knows who I am. He was a little afraid of me at first, but he mentioned it once. It seems that the children in the family are sick. As a father, I talked to him a few times about the child, and gradually I became familiar with him. He needed money. I gave him a lot of money back and forth, and asked him to drive me privately. I went to see my daughter and see Just leave, don't let her know."

    Luo Wenzhou asked, "Where did your money come from?"

    Lu Guosheng played the cigarette ash leisurely: "I'm an 'electrician' from Honeycomb, and they pay me monthly wages. Not too much, I guess it's about the same as your policeman's income, but I don't have a place to spend money, and I can save money. Useless."

    "The hive is raising you for nothing?"

    "It's not for nothing," Lu Guosheng said. "We're different from those little scoundrels who steal the dog. We are the ones who do important things and are the ones who really make money for them."

    "What's the matter? Who's making money?"

    "For real customers, there are generally two types of jobs, one is live errands and the other is dead errands. Dead errands generally have no return, and those who have nowhere to go will pick them up, which is a bit similar to the kind of news said. Suicide attack - it's just that the bombs are tied to the body to let everyone know, we have to let everyone know about this job, such as creating a car accident, and no one is hit or hit. Everyone who I knew died, this matter seems to be an accident, and it will be over when the police arrive, and no one will be called for investigation."

    "The errands are a little more complicated. First of all, the person who picks up the job has to be famous himself, and no-name people can't - like me, going back ten years, there are not many local people who don't know about the 327 National Road," Lu Guosheng said here, quite a bit Indescribably complacent, "Secondly, when you do things, you have to deliberately reveal yourself, just to let the police come and see that it's yours, understand?"

    Luo Wenzhou: "Why?"

    "In order to protect the entrusted client," Lu Guosheng said, "if someone dies, don't your police officers go to investigate the interested parties as soon as possible? After we are done, the next day's newspaper must say ' A certain fugitive fled to the local area, robbing money and killing people. If you turn your attention away, of course the client will stop. Anyway, you can't catch us. This kind of work has to be profitable. Before we started, there were people who specially planned it, or once the police suspected the client, we would be useless, and we could only come out and give people a top tank. No amount of money could be spent. This is called 'life and death', and it is quite Exciting?"

    The person who killed Zhou Junmao should be Zheng Kaifeng's "dead errand", and Lu Guosheng's killing Feng Bin should be a "live errand" - assuming that Wei Wenchuan hired him to kill and walked away with "due process".

    Luo Wenzhou asked in a deep voice, "Who are the so-called customers?"

    Lu Guosheng shook his head: "I don't know, they are all big bosses and won't have direct contact with us."

    It is said that when Fei Chengyu was in power, he was clearly a wise man with a vicious vision, but it was as if he had been put down by others. The transfer of benefits in name, fake contracts, huge overseas money laundering funds... They use this method to silently raise a monster that lurks in the dark, without involving the exchange of funds on the bright side, it is more expensive than the low-level purchase of murderers Murder is a thousand times more secretive.

    "Then let me ask you what you know." Luo Wenzhou knocked on the table, motioning the stunned clerk to concentrate, "Lu Guosheng, Feng Bin, a young man in the Bell and Drum Tower scenic spot, was photographed on the day he was murdered by on-site surveillance. Your face and body are exactly the same as Lu Yu, the third victim of the 327 case, and your fingerprints are still left at the scene, what do you have to say?"

    "No," Lu Guosheng replied without any hesitation, "I'm wrong."

    "Do you know Feng Bin?"

    "do not know."

    "Then why did you kill him? Who told you to be so rude?"

    "Since I've been caught by you all, I'm still like this, there's nothing to hide," Lu Guosheng said, "A boy named 'Wenchuan' is a rich second-generation, and their family also has a stake in Honeycomb. I've been there. Hive, when I went to Hive to look for a car, he was staring at him... That kid is very unusual, he recognized me."

    Luo Wenzhou's expression changed, "Wenchuan recognized you?"

    "One day he blocked me in the staff passage and said to me, 'I know you are a gān or something. I saw you secretly stalking my classmates near the school that day. I know Hive's car.'"

    Luo Wenzhou frowned—this was too coincidental.

    "My first reaction at the time was to kill him," Lu Guosheng grinned, "but he took out a mobile phone and said that he had sent the recording and my photos somewhere... I don't understand these children's New stuff - he said that his father paid for us to support us, so I don't act rashly, otherwise everyone will know my secret right away."

    Luo Wenzhou: "What does he want from you?"

    "In the beginning, I didn't let me gān anything, I just occasionally pestered me to tell him about the people I killed, and asked me about my feelings when I killed people, saying that it was very interesting... these boring little brats. I have always been I was trying to get rid of him, but one day, the kid brought me a personal appraisal and said to me, 'So Liang Youjing is not the son of School Director Liang, but your seed'." Lu Guosheng has always been lazy and calm. , Only when he said this, his eyes fluctuated a little.

    "I can't let people know about this, even Sun Xin doesn't know. He always thought that I had a grudge against the man named Liang. He had nothing to do to follow his daughter, because he wanted to take revenge on them." Lu Guosheng said, "Those people support you if you don't. Bai Yang, your wife, children, and people with a little relationship are all in their sight, not to mention us, even Sun Xin and others are the same - I can't let her be targeted by these people. You said, it's not that I haven't found other women in these years, and I want them to leave a seed for me, but all the women who are swayed overnight are ghosts, and they take medicine and so on, and I'm not willing to give birth to you children, but If you want to raise a qíng person, they will find out before you get pregnant. There is no one in our old Lu family. That is the root of our family. Without her, will the incense continue to end?"

    Rao was Luo Wenzhou's well-informed, so he couldn't help but be speechless.

    This person, murderous and cruel, treats human life and dog life the same - it's all like a joke.

    He didn't care about his parents, brothers, relatives and friends, and he was completely indifferent. He only cared about Liang Youjing, a daughter he had never known before because in his eyes, she was no longer a person, but an "incense". , is a "I don't know what it is, but it must be very precious" heirloom.

    This idea is so deeply ingrained that Lu Guosheng believes it, just as he believes that "the eyes of the dead will leave the last image before death".

    Luo Wenzhou: "Wenchuan threatens you to help him kill."

    Lu Guosheng nodded: "It was said that someone wanted to harm them, and he even showed me a chat log - I didn't really understand, these little brats can read a book and read a few words, they are all children's jī Shaouanpi, but the kid said that after this is done, he will help me recognize my daughter in private."

    Luo Wenzhou was somewhat puzzled: "So many years have passed, and you haven't figured out how to recognize her. Why do you now take the job of killing people in private to recognize her? You're not afraid that your 'company' will find out and let your father know. Are both women dead?"

    Lu Guosheng was stunned by his question, and looked at Luo Wenzhou for a moment, his slanted eyes a little blank.

    Luo Wenzhou figured out something in an instant: "So you didn't take over the job privately—"

    "Pick up jobs in private? Am I crazy?" Lu Guosheng said, "That kid has Hive's 'black card' - Hive's ordinary VIP cards are three kinds of gold, silver and diamonds, and 'black cards' are only available to our real customers. , there is no money in it, all the points are the accounts recorded in their transactions with the company, take the black card to the hive, find someone to help them plan, and then we people will do it, he comes with the black card and the planner Looking for me, this is a 'job errand', I also have a big bonus for becoming a gān, and I can still recognize my daughter, why don't I gān?"

    Luo Wenzhou vaguely caught a clue: "So the time, place, and route to kill Feng Bin were all told by this mastermind? Did he tell you to kill Feng Bin and leave Xia Xiaonan behind?"

    "Xia Xiaonan?" Lu Guosheng showed a doubtful look, and then reacted, "Are you talking about that little girl who has a location on her mobile phone? The plan said that she was from us. I don't know where to find the little girl, I look at her. It's quite casual, I was so scared that I wanted to pee, and I took away the locator on her body because I was afraid that she would make a mistake."

    Luo Wenzhou immediately asked, "Who is the mastermind?"

    "Number A13." Lu Guosheng said, "I don't know what his name is."

    Luo Wenzhou made a gesture towards the surveillance direction. In the surveillance room, Tao Ran immediately said to the colleague next to him, "Who are you bringing back from the hive? Go and organize a document and let him identify who A13 is!"

    Xiao Haiyang really couldn't stay in the monitoring room any longer, he took the order without saying a word, turned around and left.

    "On November 6th, why did you go to Beiyuan Longyun City? To see Liang Youjing?"

    "The planner said that when this matter is finished, he will send me to other places to avoid search. Once people like us are moved, we may not be able to come back for three or five years, so I will discuss with Wei Wenchuan in private without him and see if we can I can't let him fulfill his promise before I leave. He promised, let me meet first, don't say anything, and wait for him to tell her slowly. "

    Luo Wenzhou said in a low voice, "Long Yuncheng—Aren't you afraid that someone will recognize you or be filmed by surveillance?"

    "It's been fifteen years, who can still recognize me?" Lu Guosheng smiled, "Wenchuan Wei is the young master of Longyun City, and he won't leave evidence that he was with me at the door of their house. Damn, I deleted that video a long time ago, but I guess he only cares about the scenes in Longyun City that are related to him, and the people around the gate and around may not care, so he still pays attention-why, there is still a mistake Is it?"

    Luo Wenzhou appeared calm on the surface, but his heart was full of shock. Wei Wenchuan had already deleted the video of Lu Guosheng's appearance in the revolving restaurant. Why did Fei Du's people still get the complete one?

    Then those people searched for Longyun City's surveillance, but they failed to respond immediately. Could it be because the surveillance records in front of them were the version that was abridged by Wei Wenchuan?

    Then the surveillance records in Longyun City were quietly changed twice!

    Luo Wenzhou stood up abruptly.

    "Hey, Captain Luo," Lu Guosheng stopped him, "I might have to be shot?"

    Luo Wenzhou paused.

    Lu Guosheng spread his hands: "I've been like this all my life, but my daughter didn't break the law - she should know who gave birth to her, whether she accepts it or not, when you get to this stage of the field, you let her have time to take a look. me."

    Luo Wenzhou didn't bother to pay attention to him, so he turned around and left.

    At the base of this year's Gregorian calendar year, the people of Yancheng in the heavy snow have started to work unintentionally following the instinct of the farming nation, the students are preparing for the winter vacation, and the adults are preparing to change the calendar - all walks of life are looking forward to the year-end bonus. , but two major events blew up the municipal and public security systems to the point where they didn't even have time to write a year-end summary.

    Well-known entrepreneurs Wei Zhanhong and his son bought murderers and used entertainment institutions such as Honeycomb as a pretext to support and harbor wanted criminals. This is like an "urban legend", which has swept the fronts of major media. carnival.

    Luo Wenzhou stayed in the duty room for four full days and four nights, completely indistinguishable between day and night.

    When Tao Ran woke him up, he had just fallen asleep for five minutes wrapped in a military coat that had been ripped off from someone.

    "The people from Honeycomb have finished the trial from beginning to end," Tao Ran said. "There is no A13 that Lu Guosheng said."

    Luo Wenzhou took out a bottle of mineral water from the ground of the marching army, drank half of the bottle, and the rest fell on his face, jolted awake.

    "Wenchuan took over, he stole the black card from his dad," Tao Ran said, "A13 received him, he felt that the A13 at the time actually saw that this card was stolen from him. Not only did he keep silent, he also helped him. Got it done—isn't it weird? And what's even weirder, he met a netizen a few years ago on a niche forum dedicated to how to kill people, with the online name 'Say hello to Shatoff'."

    Luo Wenzhou's eyes jumped.

    "Half of the so-called 'systems' he tossed about in school were learned from novels and movies, and half were negotiated with this person. The detailed information of the 327 case was given to him by this person, including Lu Guosheng. The information is hidden in the hive." Tao Ran said, "We found this person's address through ip, and the building is already empty."

    Luo Wenzhou closed his eyes: "What about the staff in the monitoring room of Longyun City?"

    "I was about to tell you this," Tao Ran said, "among them, a middle-aged man named Wang Jian disappeared mysteriously after the incident. He has been in Longyun City for five years, but no one has found his documents. is fake."

    Luo Wenzhou exhaled heavily, waved his hand at Tao Ran, and cried out, "Get out of here, there's no good news."

    "There is good news." Tao Ran's eyes were bloodshot, but his eyes were frighteningly bright, "The DNA of Liang Youjing and Lu Guosheng has been compared, and the two are not related at all. The survival rate of Lu Guosheng's children is very low. It is difficult to have descendants, and Wei Wenchuan admits that the so-called 'paternity test' is because of Lu Guosheng's paranoia. He didn't tell Liang Youjing at all about recognizing his father and his daughter. A13 agreed to him in private and killed him. Feng Bin, let Lu Guosheng 'naturally die' and send the police to the police. There are three people in total, and there is an agreement between the two in private. If you want to be funny or not - we are going to draw lots. Whoever is lucky will tell Lu. Guosheng's news, do you want to try it?"

    Luo Wenzhou was amused by him after being stunned for a moment, and waved his hand: "Don't make trouble, let Xiao Haiyang go, don't fight him about this."

    "The second thing is that the leaders have all gone to the meeting today, and the investigation into the Gu Zhao case of that year will be officially restarted after the new year." Tao Ran showed an uncontrollable smile.

    Luo Wenzhou: "Really?"

    "You hurry home and have a good rest," Tao Ran pulled him up, "The third good thing is that who is waiting outside your house to pick you up, the old bachelor will be an eyesore when he sees you two, and uses my name as my name. After pinching for several years, I turned around and got it together - what is it, take it away!"

    Without saying a word, Luo Wenzhou jumped up as if full of blood, and punched Tao Ran without complaining.

    "Hey, you leave the public property, that cotton coat is the treasure of the duty room, don't just put it on and leave!" Tao Ran stretched out his hand and ripped off his clothes as if playing.

    "While I'm going, I've just been covering the heat..." Luo Wenzhou hurriedly covered his neckline, "Playing a hooligan!"

    Tao Ran quickly said something in his ear by playing around, Luo Wenzhou was stunned for a moment, Tao Ran took the opportunity to take off the cotton coat that had been in disrepair and had no buttons, picked it up and ran.

    Luo Wenzhou roared, "Tao Ran, are you going to rebel!"

    Tao Ran ran away: "Happy Chinese New Year too—"
