Chapter 595: The Way of Heaven Has a Wheel!
Chapter 595: Heaven has its own way of life!
When Zhang Mei heard Jia Dongming mention tomb robbing, she showed an incredible expression on her face and asked Jia Dongming in a very surprised tone: "Comrade Public Security! What did you say? Guan Yunshan secretly engaged in tomb robbing. Is this true?"
"Director Zhang! Let me introduce you. This is Deputy Captain Jia of the Criminal Investigation Detachment of the Dongcheng Branch! He is also the director of the Security Department of the Red Star Steel Rolling Mill!" When Liu Guozhu heard Zhang Mei's question and thought of Jia Dongming's identity, he immediately introduced Jia Dongming's identity to Zhang Mei.
After hearing Liu Guozhu's introduction, Jia Dongming smiled and introduced to Zhang Mei: "Director Zhang! The situation is like this. Last night, a family was murdered in our Dongcheng District. The deceased was named Jin Bingwan, who used to be engaged in the business of selling antiques. When we investigated the scene, we found a tomb-grabbing talisman on Jin Bingwan's neck, which represents the tomb-grabbing lieutenant."
"When we were investigating the scene at Guan's house, we also found a gold-touching talisman on Guan Yunshan's body. Combined with the situation you just concluded, we suspect that Guan Yunshan and Jin Bingwan should be brothers in the same sect. These two brothers were successively killed in just a few days, and these two cases were committed by the same group of people."
After hearing what Jia Dongming said, Zhang Mei learned that a family massacre had also occurred in Dongcheng District, and that the family that was massacred was related to the Guan family. She immediately realized that the Guan family case was not an ordinary case.
Facing the situation introduced by Jia Dongming, Zhang Mei pondered carefully for a while and said to Jia Dongming: "Director Jia! I don't know whether Guan Yunshan has ever engaged in tomb robbing, but I know there is someone who may know something."
"Director Zhang! Who is the person you are talking about? Where does he live? Can you take us to meet that person?" Zhou Hua asked Zhang Mei impatiently after hearing what Zhang Mei introduced.
Zhang Mei heard Zhou Hua's question and introduced him to everyone with a smile: "The man I'm talking about is also surnamed Guan, and is called Grandpa Guan. He is Guan Yunshan's father. He used to be a bond slave in their family. He now lives on Qianmen Street."
When Jia Dongming heard Zhang Mei's introduction, he immediately remembered the old man Guan he met when he went to the tavern to drink, and quickly asked Zhang Mei, "Director Zhang! Is the old man Guan you are talking about the old man Guan who is known as the Nine Gates Admiral on Qianmen Street?"
Zhang Mei was surprised when she heard Jia Dongming's question. She asked Jia Dongming curiously, "Director Jia! Do you also know Mr. Guan?"
When Jia Dongming heard Zhang Mei's question, he shook his head subconsciously and replied, "Director Zhang! I don't know Grandpa Guan, but I occasionally go to the pub on Qianmen Street for a drink or two, and I have seen Grandpa Guan there before."
After hearing what Jia Dongming said, Zhang Mei smiled and asked him, "Director Jia! The tavern you mentioned should be Xu Huizhen's tavern, right? When Grandpa Guan has nothing to do, he always likes to go to Xu Huizhen's tavern for a drink. No wonder you said you've met Grandpa Guan."
"Director Jia! Since you have also heard of this old man Guan, why don't we go to Qianmen Street now to meet this old man Guan and see if we can get any valuable clues from him." Liu Guozhu thought of the case of the Guan family being wiped out. He was anxious to solve the case, so he immediately made a suggestion to Jia Dongming.
Jia Dongming also wanted to solve the case as soon as possible. When he heard Liu Guozhu's proposal, he smiled and said to Zhang Mei, "Director Zhang! Please accompany us to meet this old man Guan."
Zhang Mei heard Jia Dongming's request and replied with a smile: "No problem, I will go with you."
It took four people and two sidecars less than twenty minutes to reach Qianmen Street and the entrance of Guan's courtyard.
Zhang Mei looked at the half-open gate of the courtyard, reached out and knocked on the door, and shouted inside: "Is anyone home?" "Who is it? The door is not closed, please come in." As soon as Zhang Mei finished asking, the energetic voice of Grandpa Guan came from the yard.
When Zhang Mei heard Grandpa Guan's answer, she immediately opened the gate and led Jia Dongming and others into the yard. They saw Grandpa Guan lying on a recliner and introduced herself to him with a smile: "Grandpa Guan! I'm Zhang Mei from the Street Office. These guys are comrades from the Public Security Bureau. We came here specifically to ask you about something."
At this time, Mr. Guan was lying on a recliner with a purple clay teapot in his hand, drinking tea and listening to opera on the radio.
When Grandpa Guan heard Zhang Mei's self-introduction and saw several people walking into the yard from outside, he quickly sat up from his recliner and greeted Zhang Mei enthusiastically, "Director Zhang! It turns out that you are here. Please take a seat."
As Grandpa Guan was talking, he did not forget to shout to the inner room: "Xiao Guan! There are guests at home, come out quickly and pour tea for the guests."
Soon a young girl ran out of the house. When she saw the people standing in the yard, she turned and ran back into the house. Then she came out of the house with a few teacups and a teapot. After politely pouring tea for everyone, she turned and ran back into the house.
After Grandpa Guan and his granddaughter poured tea for everyone, he asked Zhang Mei, "Director Zhang! Comrades from the public security department, you came to see me. What's the matter?"
When Liu Guozhu heard Master Guan's question, he did not beat around the bush and asked him directly, "Master Guan! Do you know Guan Yunshan?"
When Grandpa Guan heard Liu Guozhu mention Guan Yunshan, he was visibly stunned. Then he put away the smile on his face and asked Liu Guozhu seriously, "Comrade Public Security! Did Guan Yunshan commit any crime?"
"Mr. Guan! We are just asking if you know Guan Yunshan. How come you think he has committed a crime?" When Jia Dongming heard Mr. Guan's question, an expression of surprise appeared on his face, and he asked to Mr. Guan with a smile.
When Grandpa Guan heard Jia Dongming's question and thought of Guan Yunshan's business, he answered, "This kid has had bad intentions since he was young, and you are the police. If Guan Yunshan has not committed any crime, why would you come to me to inquire about Guan Yunshan's affairs?"
"Grandpa Guan! I don't know whether Guan Yunshan has done anything wrong, but Guan Yunshan's entire family was wiped out three days ago." When Liu Guozhu heard Grandpa Guan's answer and thought of the fact that Guan Yunshan's entire family had been wiped out, he didn't beat around the bush with Grandpa Guan and directly told Grandpa Guan the news that Guan Yunshan's entire family had been wiped out.
When Grandpa Guan learned that Guan Yunshan's family had been exterminated, he showed a surprised expression on his face and murmured to himself: "Heaven has its own way!"
