Abyss of ignorance

Chapter 20

After the meeting, Yue Jianfeng gave Lin Xiaodong a phone number: "Jiang Xu's lawyer has applied for bail pending trial. The lawyer probably told Jiang Xu not to say anything here. However, it seems that he himself proposed to meet with you, but there is a condition. as a formal interrogation."

"What is this call?"

"It's his lawyer. He asked the lawyer to send a message to ask you to meet outside. But Team Lin, in this way, no matter what you talked about, there is no record. It may be difficult to use it as evidence."

"Hmph, isn't his purpose here?"

……

In Linzhou, where the seasons are changing, when it is warm and cold, it has just warmed up for a day, and it is cloudy again.

Lin Xiaodong walked towards the Chuanyun River according to the lawyer's instructions.

The closer to the river bank, the colder the wind blows, no one will come here in this weather.

On the steps facing the Chuanyun River, sat a man wearing a camel-colored woolen overcoat, with his hands in his pockets, his hair was extremely messy by the wind.

Jiang Xu was both unfamiliar and familiar to Lin Xiaodong.

He had seen him being interrogated, and he knew about his past from Chen Yu.

But he never spoke to him directly.

Lin Xiaodong sat down next to Jiang Xu and handed him a cigarette.

Jiang Xu glanced at it.Then he looked at the other side of the Chuanyun River and said, "I don't smoke." Lin Xiaodong didn't feel embarrassed, so he lit up for himself.

It's just that the wind by the river was so strong that the lighter couldn't even be turned on.

Jiang Xu threw him an exquisite lighter: "Windproof."

Lin Xiaodong caught the lighter and was stunned for a moment—the person who handed him the lighter last time was Ye Mimi.

Under the blue flame, the cigarette glowed with red sparks.

"I don't believe you are crazy." Lin Xiaodong said.

"Of course I am not crazy, and people who need to prove something to others will be driven crazy. For example, to prove that I am not crazy. I don't have that boring desire, and I don't want to prove anything to anyone."

"Tell me, why did you kill Gao Hanyu, because he killed your benefactor back then?" Lin Xiaodong cut to the chase.

"I don't know Gao Hanyu, I only know that there is a killer code-named 202 who will help me get rid of Ye Mimi."

"Gao Hanyu killed Chen Shi's family, you already knew about it."

"Chen Yu told you."

"It's crazy. According to seniority, at least I call him uncle."

"Then he has to afford it."

"The death of Chen Shi's family will hit Chen Yu no less than you." Lin Xiaodong didn't know why the topic came to Chen Yu, probably because Chen Yu had always held a place of respect in his heart, and this Jiang Xu obviously No, this made Lin Xiaodong unable to accept it.

"Really, next time you ask him, how did he become the deputy director?" Jiang Xu turned to look at Lin Xiaodong, his eyes were sharp and disturbing.

At this time, Lin Xiaodong sat next to Jiang Xu at close range for the first time.

Jiang Xu's aura seemed to have many sharp spikes, ready to hurt people at any time.

"I'm not here to discuss Chen Bureau's matter with you today. I'm not interested in the grievances between you. We tracked down Gao Hanyu's surveillance, and he went to the Dongyou Oil Market by himself. How did you lure him there? It's obvious , this is a trap."

"I want him to kill Ye Mimi. As for what he is going to do, I don't need to know."

"You mean, Ye Mimi lured him to the East Oil Market."

"I didn't mean anything else. You all knew that I was recuperating in Huizhou during that time. You can also check my call records. During that time, I had no contact with this Gao Hanyu. Wait until I hear from him again By the time, he was dead."

"Before you contacted Gao Hanyu, you reported the den that supplied him with drugs. It was intentional, but I don't understand. What's the use of stopping him from taking drugs?"

"When did you police start to suspect enthusiastic citizens? Isn't it my job to provide you with clues to crimes?"

Of course, Lin Xiaodong would not buy Jiang Xu's statement: "What do you know about the death of Chen Shi's family? I heard that you insisted that they were killed in the early years, and it was not an accident. Now it proves that you are right." That's right."

Jiang Xu, who heard this, was silent for a while.

The Chuanyun River was blown by huge waves under the gust of wind, shaking the sailing cargo ship as fragile as a piece of paper, and it was about to capsize at any time.

After a long time, a sneer appeared on the corner of Jiang Xu's mouth: "At that time, I was a high school student. It was the first time I faced the death of a relative. I couldn't accept the fact and went crazy. Are you serious?"

"We have reason to believe that Gao Hanyu is the direct murderer of Chen Shi's family. You are right."

"Really? That's because you are so good, what does it have to do with me?" When Jiang Xu said this, his tone was weird, which always made Lin Xiaodong feel ironic.

Today, Lin Xiaodong began to vaguely understand his indiscriminate hostility: "I understand that after ten years no one believes in you, it would be hard for anyone to change."

"I'm pretty good. I have money and leisure. I want the wind to get the wind and the rain to get the rain. You work so hard every day, do you still need to sympathize with me, a prodigal?" Jiang Xu looked at Jiang Ou, who was struggling to fly on the Chuanyun River. , "I just got too much, so I have to lose something, let me know that this world is fair."

"Hehe, it's quite easy for you to reconcile with yourself." Although Lin Xiaodong said so, he knew in his heart that Jiang Xu was not, "Gao Hanyu is a professional killer. He may have killed him, but there must be someone behind him. This person who is it?"

"It's me." Jiang Xu's words began to be "out of tune" again.

Lin Xiaodong had no choice but to pinch out the smoke that was quickly burned due to the strong wind: "There are only two of us here, no matter what you say, it can't be used as a testimony, so don't pretend to be crazy."

"If I went to the snowy area with them at that time, they wouldn't have died." Jiang Xu said, Lin Xiaodong heard similar words from Chen Yu's report, the former Jiang Yichuan said that he should be with them go.But at this moment, hearing Jiang Xu say it himself, it seemed to mean something.

"Let's assume, Officer Lin." Jiang Xu suddenly changed his tone, the one that was about to let go, "Suppose I know Gao Hanyu is the killer who killed Xiaoxu's family as you said, I will try my best to keep him Because he is the only witness to find out the chief envoy. From this assumption alone, I will not be the one who killed Gao Hanyu."

With that said, Jiang Xu stood up and walked towards the black Rolls Royce waiting for him.

Lin Xiaodong stayed behind him. After this conversation, Lin Xiaodong felt that Jiang Xu was his true face only when he said the last sentence—he was more sober than anyone else.

Jiang Xu's car drove away, Lin Xiaodong looked around the empty surroundings, and his eyes fell on the place Jiang Xu had been staring at just now...
