Chapter 1104 Key Clues
After entering the building and arriving at the case handling area of the First Brigade, it was already busy.
I didn't see Wang Defa, Hu Yinglong, Lao Duan's wife and brother-in-law. I guess they were taken to the interrogation room to take statements.
"Master! Have some tea!"
Seeing Li Xiangnan, Xu Qiluo quickly poured a cup of tea and said with a smile: "My master has gone to the city for a meeting and will be back soon!"
Li Xiangnan waved his hand when he said he didn't see Qin Ruobai. "Xiao Xu, just do your thing! Don't worry about me! I'll wait for them to finish taking notes!"
Although he is a consultant and has the right to assist in solving cases, he still lets professionals take the interrogation notes, and will only provide assistance when there is a need.
"Master, please sit here with me. If you need anything, please let me know. I'm right here!" Xu Qiluo was very enthusiastic.
"I know, thank you!" Li Xiangnan said politely, then walked into the office and sat in Ruobai's seat.
The comrades in the First Team were not only dealing with Duan Sijiu's case. Some were discussing something in groups of three or four, some were holding meetings in the small internal conference room, and some were going in and out to get information. Although they were all very busy, when they saw Li Xiangnan here, they all greeted him politely!
This was both out of respect for his ability to help the bureau solve several cases, and also out of closeness to Qin Ruobai's family.
So when Li Xiangnan returned here after many days, it felt as if he was back home, without any sense of strangeness at all.
It didn't matter anyway. While thinking about how to solve Duan Sijiu's case, he looked at Ruobai's desk.
Although her desk was filled with many documents and materials, it was kept meticulously and clean.
There is a pot of asparagus fern on the table, growing well, looking fresh and green.
In the corner of the right partition stands a pot of small-leaved red nanmu, emitting a faint fragrance.
Li Xiangnan sat in the seat where his wife used to sit, and could feel the comfort that Ruobai felt working here on weekdays.
This feeling is amazing.
It’s like traveling across time, with the fates of two different people playing out at the same place, just like unreachable lovers.
"Little Li!"
Just as Li Xiangnan was thinking about it, he heard Zhang Tiancheng's voice at the door. He looked up and saw him coming in, and quickly stood up, "Director Zhang!"
"I heard about it!" Zhang Tiancheng came over and shook hands with him enthusiastically.
"Director Zhang, Captain Guo asked me to join in..."
"I know!" Zhang Tiancheng nodded and patted his arm. "You have always been fair in solving cases. Everyone in the bureau has seen it. I am very relieved!"
After saying this, he pointed in the direction of the forensic room and said with a smile: "There is still some time before the confession comes out. Can you go to the Trace Examination Department for some guidance?"
"Director Zhang, I can't say I can provide you with any guidance! I'll go over and take a look. I haven't been here for a few days!" Li Xiangnan was also a smart man. When he heard this, he knew that Director Zhang probably had something to say to him in private, so he smiled and followed him out.
really.
The two of them just walked around the forensic room and talked briefly. Zhang Tiancheng pulled Li Xiangnan's arm, looked back at the corridor, and whispered:
"Just last week, at the national public security system sentencing conference, important instructions were given on crimes including rape. Everything must be strictly enforced! Comrade Duan Sijiu was picked out at this time. The matter is not simple. You'd better be careful!"
Hearing this, Li Xiangnan was more certain that he was still being targeted. He nodded slightly and asked, "Director Zhang, if Captain Guo is not in the bureau today, is this case taken by the Second Brigade?"
Zhang Tiancheng nodded. "Recently, the Third and Fourth Brigades of the Bureau have been assisting other provinces in handling cases. Du Sheng, the captain of the Second Brigade, was handling a case in Yanjiao. When the Xicheng Police Station called to say that someone had reported a rape, this guy actually called the Bureau and arranged for a clerk who stayed behind to take over the case. I happened to run into him..."
"Captain Du is very well-informed!" Li Xiangnan narrowed his eyes.
"So, I just realized that this matter is not simple! Stop the clerk going to Xicheng and let Guo Qian take people directly there!" Zhang Tiancheng took out a cigarette and gave it to Li Xiangnan, frowning and saying, "If you bring personal feelings into the investigation of the case, it will definitely be biased from the truth. I don't want to see such a situation! Even though Du Sheng is not in the city, he still wants to find someone to take over this case. There is something fishy here!"
"It seems someone has informed him!" Li Xiangnan lit a cigarette and glanced at Zhang Tiancheng.
"Even if Xiao Du is Gao Shi's man, I can still ask about this matter for you!" Zhang Tiancheng said through gritted teeth.
"Thank you, Director Zhang!"
"Why are you being so polite to me!" After saying this, Zhang Tiancheng whispered, "The city will be changing its leadership this year. If I can become a member of the Standing Committee, I will have a bigger say! In that case, I will no longer be afraid of Gao Shi's connections in this system! Public security comrades like Du Sheng who have outstanding abilities but always have an unexplainable taste in their work must be eliminated from the team!"
"Director Zhang, it's difficult for you too!"
Li Xiangnan was very touched that Zhang Tiancheng could open up to him, and he expressed his attitude at this time, "Director Zhang, my father-in-law has met me several times recently and he always said that he would invite you to have a drink someday. Let's get together when you have time!"
This is called returning a favor with a favor, doing a favor.
"That's great! We must get together later!" Zhang Tiancheng immediately smiled and praised Li Xiangnan for being sensible.
Li Xiangnan had also talked with Qin Ruobai at home about some of the relationships in the bureau, and he knew why Zhang Tiancheng was afraid of Gao Shi.
Don’t underestimate the small size of the Public Security Bureau. The relationships within it are complicated. Gao Shi was able to become the deputy director of the Municipal Bureau, and the relationships behind him are not simple!
"Advisor Li!"
At this time Wei Jingfei hurriedly ran into the office area.
As soon as he heard his voice, Li Xiangnan said goodbye to Zhang Tiancheng, "Director Zhang, the key clue is back, I have to go over!"
"You're busy! We'll have a good chat later!" Zhang Tiancheng nodded, and reminded him: "If you have any difficulties in handling the case, be sure to tell me! We are brothers!"
"I remember!"
After saying this, Li Xiangnan hurried back and shouted when he saw Wei Jingfei: "Brother Wei!"
"Here, this is the installation location found by the Post and Telecommunications Bureau!" Wei Jingfei sipped his tea and handed over a note.
Li Xiangnan took it and looked at it, and saw No. 33 Erligou Middle Street written on it.
Very close to our own Nami Equipment Center!
It's so numb! I'm at my doorstep!
"Brother Nan!"
While talking to Wei Jingfei, Song Yi came in hurriedly with Song Zimo and Zhang Jingyang.
"You've arrived just in time!" Li Xiangnan waved the note in his hand, "Wait for me at the door!"
"Okay!" Song Yi nodded without thinking, said nothing, and hurried out with the two of them.
"Old Wei!" Li Xiangnan put the note into his pocket. "Tell Captain Guo that we will split up! Get the confession of the pregnant woman and check this thread! I'll go check for clues! Don't let the mother identify Duan Sijiu before I come back!"
"Okay!" Although he didn't know what he was up to, Wei Jingfei didn't hesitate, "Leave these things to me! Keep in touch and call!"
"Ok!"
After saying this, Li Xiangnan hurried out of the building. Song Zimo had already started the car and was waiting. He got in the car and said without hesitation, "Let's go to Erligou!"
