Chapter 479: Detective Chinatown 2
Chapter 479: Detective Chinatown 2 (5)
“Zhiyuan and Zhiren have been cooperating for a long time, even before I came to Columbia University for my doctorate.
They have been funding Zhiyuan's 'quantum decoding' research, but because it involves quantum computers, there is a big funding gap.
However, the cooperative relationship between the two parties is maintained very well. Many of Zhiyuan's research results have been handed over to Zhiren Company for commercial application, and I have not heard of any conflicts between them.
By the way, I heard from Zhiyuan that behind the Sapiens company, there seems to be a large organization called the Natural Science Foundation. They have an organization called "Science Frontiers" under their name, and they have also come to Zhiyuan to invite him to join. "
"So complicated?"
When Tang Ren heard Lin Wanru's introduction, his eyes widened. He felt that this relationship was just a mess, with the Longqing Society, the Sapiens Company, and now the Natural Science Foundation and the Border of Science. It was becoming more and more complicated.
When Qin Feng heard the name "Frontiers of Science", he felt it was very familiar, as if he had heard it somewhere before.
Soon, he figured it out with his super memory.
The scene then switched to a room, which should be Qin Feng's meeting, because Shi Qiang was sitting opposite him, explaining information about the mission.
It turned out that in the past year, many scientists around the world died suddenly due to various reasons. This time it was the death of Dr. Li Zhiyuan that attracted the attention of the special envoy department, so Qin Feng was sent to investigate the truth.
The intelligence about this incident included information about "Science Frontiers", because many of the scientists who died had joined this organization, and those who had not joined had more or less contact with it.
This piece of information was like a thread or a key piece of a puzzle, and began to fill in the gaps in Qin Feng's mind about the case.
However, there is still a lack of key clues or intelligence. How did the murderer kill Dr. Li in the secret room?
He looked at Lin Wanru and nodded.
"Thank you, I roughly understand it, and your information has solved many of my doubts.
What are you going to do next, stay here and wait for this to end, or come back to the surface with us?"
Lin Wanru also looked at him, hesitated for a moment, and finally said with a little sadness:
"I was not able to be with Zhiyuan when he died. This time, no matter what, I will stand up and seek justice for him."
The scene changed, and four people appeared on the ground.
"You said, is it really Uncle Seven who killed Dr. Li?"
While walking on the road, Tang Ren suddenly asked Kiko beside him in a low voice, "It is said that even a tiger will not eat its own cubs. Although Uncle Qi looks fierce, I can feel his gentleness in his heart."
"I think what you can feel is the 500 million U.S. dollars."
Kiko, holding a lollipop in his mouth, glanced at him and said:
"Besides, who knows what people's hearts are like? Those gang leaders are all ruthless, and maybe he has illegitimate children outside, otherwise why didn't he force his only son to inherit the family business for so many years?"
"Where are we going next?" Lin Wanru asked Qin Feng at this time.
Qin Feng was thinking as he walked.
"Based on the information currently available, I have roughly figured out what happened, but I still have no idea who the murderer is.
Maybe we should go back to the crime scene and take another look there to see if there is anything we overlooked."
"Haven't we already looked there?" Tang Ren was a little puzzled.
Qin Feng looked at Lin Wanru.
"But she hasn't been there. In terms of familiarity with the place, she should be the one with the most say besides Dr. Li."
They soon arrived at Dr. Li's house, which had been locked again. The police cordon swayed gently in the wind. Lin Wanru looked up at the familiar window, seemingly lost in thought.
"If you don't feel well, we can come back another time."
Qin Feng whispered to Lin Wanru at this time. Kiko, who was standing by, saw this scene and had a better impression of this young man. He didn't expect that he stuttered and had a
Warm heart.
Lin Wanru shook her head and said firmly, "It's okay, let's go in. Zhiyuan didn't run away either."
The closed door did not pose any problem for Qin Feng and others, and they quickly entered.
Lin Wanru walked in this familiar yet unfamiliar room. Her movements were very light, as if she was afraid of disturbing something.
The house is no longer what it used to be, and there is a thin layer of dust on the floor and the table.
They first came to the basement where the crime occurred. The air seemed to be filled with a faint smell of blood and disinfectant, but in fact the scene had been cleaned up extremely cleanly. Except for the red numbers on the wall, it seemed as if the murder that had happened not long ago had never happened.
Lin Wanru didn't care about the books and safes that had been moved away. Her eyes were already attracted by the countdown numbers on the wall.
"How is it? Did you gain anything?" Qin Feng stood behind her and asked softly.
Lin Wanru's eyes suddenly dimmed and she shook her head sadly.
"No."
She slowly turned around and began to look around carefully, trying to find any traces of her lover in this extremely empty basement.
The movement was very slow, and Lin Wanru's fingertips gently brushed across every inch of the wall, as if she was having a conversation with her past memories.
Qin Feng and others did not urge her, but just stood aside silently.
However, half an hour passed and Lin Wanru still found nothing. The room was really too clean.
The mood of several people gradually became low, and even Qin Feng felt that he would not gain anything.
"Let's go upstairs first, maybe there will be clues there."
Qin Feng comforted her softly, and Lin Wanru nodded, turned and walked towards the stairs. Just as she was about to walk out of the basement and her fingers left the wall, she suddenly felt a sharp pain in her fingertips.
"what!"
Lin Wanru cried out in pain, and Kiko hurried forward to hold her hand. He saw that there was a cut on Lin Wanru's index finger, and bright red blood was oozing out of the wound.
"Ouch, you're bleeding."
Kiko took out a handkerchief to cover her wound, and at the same time looked at the wall, and then saw the culprit who hurt Lin Wanru. It turned out to be the vent on the wall. There were metal strips on it that served as grilles, and because the edges were too sharp, it cut her.
"Are you okay? Why don't we go to the hospital first."
Qin Feng also asked with concern at this time. After all, Lin Wanru's temperament was really full of brokenness, especially in such a heartbroken situation, people couldn't help but worry that she would suddenly faint.
However, Lin Wanru did not answer Qin Feng's words, but just stared at the grille bar that cut her.
"what happened?"
Qin Feng reacted immediately and asked quickly.
Lin Wanru said sadly, "I've been to Zhiyuan's house before, and I was also cut by this grille. Later... later he took sandpaper and polished the edges of these grilles smooth one by one."
Qin Feng's pupils suddenly shrank when he heard this. He didn't care that the grille bars had just cut Lin Wanru. After touching them personally, he ran to check the other vents one by one.
"What's wrong, Qin Feng?" Kiko was a little worried when she saw him like this, but Tang Ren waved his hand beside her.
"Don't worry, my nephew has obviously found a clue."
Qin Feng ignored them at this time. After looking at the ventilation hole, he rushed out of the basement, ran out of the room, came to the lawn outside, and after a little search, he found the other end of the basement ventilation system.
"Sure enough!" Qin Feng pounded his palm and said excitedly.
"What's the matter? What did you find?"
Tang Ren asked curiously, and Lin Wanru also looked at him with hope in her eyes.
Kiko squatted down and checked the outdoor air inlet of the ventilation system, but found nothing abnormal.
Qin Feng didn't have the heart to explain to them at this time. Time was pressing. He looked at the watch on his wrist and said to them, "Let's go back to Longqing Club first."
"Are you crazy? They are looking for Miss Lin. Isn't this just walking into a trap?"
Tang Ren almost jumped up, but was dragged by Qin Feng towards the taxi on the side of the road.
"Don't worry, all the mysteries will be revealed there."
Qin Feng said confidently, and told Kiko, "Also, please ask Officer Chen and Noda Hao to gather at Longqing Club."
Kiko nodded and took out his phone to send a message.
However, she looked at her phone and said with a strange expression:
"They are already on their way to the Longqing Association, and they also said that they have found the murderer."
…………
"Who is the murderer?"
The four of them hailed a taxi and prepared to head to Chinatown.
Qin Feng asked as he just sat down in the car.
"It is said that he is the godson of 'Seventh Master', the deputy leader of Longqing Society, that Lu Guofu."
Kiko looked at his phone and talked about the situation over there.
The first was the special forces detective Buffalo Billy. He and another detective, along with two red sticks from the Longqing Society, took Chris, the deputy director of the Homo Sapiens Company, and found the firefighters who were under their custody. They learned from them about the first time they broke into Dr. Li's basement that day.
What these people said was exactly the same as what Chris said, which proved that he was not lying.
Then it was Officer Chen who went to investigate the enemies of "Seventh Uncle". She also found several old enemies of "Seventh Uncle" from the files, but these people had either passed away or immigrated to other countries.
However, during this process, Officer Chen found out something about Lu Guofu.
Next was Noda Hao. Through the connections in his own company, he was able to find out a lot of inside information from high-level officials. At least he found out about the "Natural Science Foundation" and "Frontiers of Science". He also found out that another medical institution under the "Natural Science Foundation" had reached a deal with the Longqing Society in the past six months, and the person in charge of this matter was Lu Guofu.
"So 20 minutes ago, Officer Chen and his team raided a branch of the Longqing Society. They found in the branch's underground cold storage..."
Kiko suddenly fell silent and turned the phone screen towards everyone: in the picture, dozens of black bags were neatly arranged on the chilly cold storage floor, exactly the same as what they had seen in the subway tunnel before.
"Now they say that there is irrefutable evidence that Lu Guofu used his triad identity to engage in illegal human trafficking, murder and organ trading.
It was because Dr. Li discovered this that he was silenced by someone he arranged for."
"No...no!"
Qin Feng got anxious and his stuttering problem came back again.
"Lu Guofu no...no..."
"Not the murderer?"
"No... he's not the mastermind!" Qin Feng said, "He can only be considered an accomplice. The real murderer is someone else!"
"Who is it?" Tang Ren and Kiko asked in unison.
Qin Feng shook his head, "I don't know."
"Then what makes you say that Noda Hao and his team arrested the wrong person?" Kiko was puzzled.
"Because they haven't figured out the murderer's method of killing people in a closed room yet!"
"Then you have to hurry up, they are almost arriving at the Longqing Meeting now."
The taxi was heading towards New York's Chinatown, but once on the road, it suddenly encountered a traffic jam.
Looking at the traffic jam ahead and looking at their watches which showed time ticking away, several people couldn't help but reveal anxious looks on their faces.
"Get out of the car and run over there!"
Qin Feng was the first to open the car door, followed closely by Tang Ren.
"You haven't paid yet!" the Mexican driving the car shouted, and Kiko threw him a bill.
Several people started running towards Chinatown, but their journey was naturally not going to be smooth sailing. Then the roadblocks commonly seen in movies appeared. A group of vicious thugs armed with various weapons began chasing and besieging the four people, trying to catch them.
A tense, exciting and hilarious chase scene that is very consistent with the "Detective Chinatown" series was played out on the big screen. During this process, Tang Ren's performance naturally made the audience laugh, which was in line with the New Year's scene and neutralized the depressing atmosphere brought about by the suspense of the movie itself.
In the end, Qin Feng and his four companions broke into a bar. At the cost of Tang Ren dancing with the boss, a group of motorcycle gangs in the bar not only helped drive away the pursuers, but also sent them to New York's Chinatown.
Amid the exciting music, the four of them passed through the archway of Chinatown and soon arrived at the main hall of the Longqing Society.
The atmosphere inside was extremely tense at this time. Police Officer Chen and Noda Hao and others who arrived early failed to capture Lu Guofu, and they were in a standoff with Lu Guofu's men.
"Lu Guofu, you are suspected of murdering Dr. Li, human trafficking, and organ smuggling. The evidence is irrefutable. Why don't you surrender?"
Officer Chen raised his gun and, together with several of his subordinates from the police station, aimed at Lu Guofu who was not far away.
Lu Guofu's face looked extremely ugly. Beside him, several gang subordinates who had been bribed by him also took out their weapons, but their eyes were wandering and they were not as loyal as they looked.
As for "Uncle Seven", he was sitting in a wheelchair, looking at everything in front of him with a grim expression, and was protected behind him by two loyal Red Sticks.
"Asshole! Second brother, tell me, did you kill A Yuan?!"
"Seventh Uncle" Li Le poked the ground with the crutch in his hand, and there was uncontrollable anger in his voice.
When Lu Guofu heard this, he was immediately furious and shouted at "Uncle Seven":
"I'm not the second one!"
