The secret war is silent

Deputy Director Luo, let's have something to eat. I think you didn't eat much for dinner. Cai Xiaochun came in with a bowl of noodles.

Green leaves, a poached egg, a little chopped green onion, fragrant, and looks very tempting.

Thank you, do you all have it? Luo Yao was also hungry, and his stomach suddenly started growling.

There are all those who are still working, Cai Xiaochun said.

That's good. Luo Yao brought the bowl over and took a big bite.

A bowl of noodles went into my stomach in the blink of an eye, and my empty stomach finally felt comfortable.

Cai Xiaochun took away the empty bowl.

Luo Yao continued to study the case under the lamp, going over the details in his mind over and over again, hoping to find some clues.

…

Deputy Director Luo, Deputy Director Luo... Feeling someone calling him in his ear, Luo Yao raised his head slightly and opened his eyes.

It was already bright outside the window.

The person who woke him up was Zhang Xiaozheng.

Deputy Director Luo, why did you fall asleep while lying on the table? If you want to sleep, you should sleep on the bed. Zhang Xiaozheng said.

Luo Yao rubbed his eyes: I was thinking about the case last night. I fell asleep after thinking about it.

Deputy Director Luo, thank you for your hard work.

How is it? According to the interview outline I prepared, how did the clerk from Hongbin Tower do in the cross-examination? Luo Yao asked.

Hu Yingjie and I took turns asking questions, and we kept asking for almost the whole night. We kept asking if this guy could hold it any longer. Zhang Xiaozheng said, This is the transcript of the inquiry. Take a look at it. If you have any questions, wait until this guy wakes up. Ask again later.”

Okay, let me take a look and see if I can find any clues. Luo Yao nodded, Has the arrest warrant for Wu Sihuai been issued?

I have sent the profile sketch you drew to the police station. The arrest warrant should be issued to the mountain city and surrounding counties and cities soon.

We only have two days left, so we have to hurry up. If we don't have any clues, this case may really become an unsolvable cold case. Luo Yao said.

I'll urge you again. Zhang Xiaozheng nodded.

…

During lunch, at the entrance of the NA District Police Station in Shancheng, a nervous and sneaky man ran over.

Officer, I want to surrender. The man came to the armed policeman standing guard at the door and took off his straw hat.

Surrender yourself?

These days, it is not uncommon for prisoners to escape from prison, but those who take the initiative to surrender are far too few, and it is simply too rare.

This unexpected man came to surrender, leaving the policeman standing guard at the door confused as to how to deal with it.

However, he didn't know how to do it. There were many people inside. The police told them and ran inside.

Surrender yourself, what is the case, and what is its name?

No, I don't know... The policeman on guard was in a panic and forgot to ask at all. His immediate superior was confused when asked.

No matter what the case is or who the person is, as long as he surrenders, it must be accepted, and maybe he can get some credit for nothing.

So, the police chief came out with his people.

My dear Wu Sihuai, I surrender myself...

What, your name is Wu Sihuai?

Yes.

All the police officers, as if facing a formidable enemy, immediately surrounded the man who claimed to be Wu Sihuai and aimed their guns at him.

This frightened Wu Sihuai a lot. He surrendered himself and was not looking for trouble. Besides, he had no idea what crime he had committed and he was wanted. He did not dare to escape. He knew that as long as he If you run away, it will be worse if you are caught, so you might as well surrender.

Therefore, he ran over and surrendered, trying to explain his problems clearly. If he was labeled as a wanted criminal, he would not be able to stay in the mountain city anymore, let alone doing business.

Quick, go report to the chief, and say that the wanted criminal Wu Sihuai has surrendered! the sergeant leading the team shouted to his men.

Are you really Wu Sihuai?

Really, I am really Wu Sihuai!

Chief, don't tell me, this guy looks quite similar to the portrait on the wanted poster! A policeman on the side looked at him carefully and said.

Bring the wanted poster.

Director Zhou has been on tenterhooks for the past two days. Although the case has been taken over by the attendant's office, when the time comes, when something really happens, God knows whether the responsibility will be pushed down to the lower level. He knows very well the urinary behavior of the people above.

Maybe, he will be the one who takes the blame when the time comes.

Director, Wu Sihuai has surrendered!

Surrender yourself, the arrest warrant was issued just one morning, so soon? Director Zhou was also confused. After so many years as a police officer, this was the first time he had seen this situation.

I don't know if it's true or not, but he really said his name is Wu Sihuai. The policeman who made the report said with certainty.

Let's go down and have a look. Director Zhou stood up from his seat, took off his hat, and hurriedly came downstairs.

…

Wu Sihuai, come to the police station and surrender, okay, I'll be here right away. Zhang Xiaozheng was stunned for a moment when he received the call from Director Zhou, and then gave instructions.

Deputy Director Luo...

I heard it, let's go together, wake up the guys in Hongbin Building, and take them over to identify him. Luo Yao had already stood up.

yes!

The journey was almost as fast as lightning. The drive that might have taken forty minutes now took less than half an hour.

Director Zhou, where is the person?

In the inquiry room. Director Zhou was relieved when he saw Luo Yao and others coming over. As long as he handed the person into the hands of Luo Yao and others, he could do anything.

No interrogation?

I just asked briefly about the situation. It's related to the case. If I didn't ask, we don't know the situation. Director Zhou said with a chuckle.

Well, please don't let anyone know about Wu Sihuai's surrender. Luo Yao ordered.

Deputy Director Luo, don't worry. I ordered this immediately. It was when Wu Sihuai surrendered, and not many people saw it. It should not be spread, Director Zhou said.

Don't cancel the wanted order for the time being. Wait for my notification when it will be cancelled. Luo Yao nodded.

That's, that's...

Director Zhou should not listen to this case. It's not that I can't trust Director Zhou. It's actually that this case involves secrets. If you want to hear it, I can let you sit in, but if you can't solve the case, you'll have to be beaten as well. Luo Yao came to ask. At the door of the consultation room, he turned to Director Zhou and said.

Haha, I won't go in. Deputy Director Luo, Deputy Zhang, you can ask. Director Zhou thought for a moment and smiled.

It is better to do less than to do more. He is not so eager to make meritorious service and receive awards.

Okay, but Director Zhou cooperates with the case, and I will mention this credit to the above. Luo Yao said, he still has to give others the credit that should be given, and he is not so harsh.

Thank you, Deputy Director Luo. Director Zhou suddenly burst into laughter, feeling as if he was bathing in the spring breeze.

Xiao Liu, come in with me. Luo Yao called to the waiter in Hongbin Building, opened the door and walked in.

In addition to Wu Sihuai, there were two policemen inside.

Wu Sihuai looked up and saw his clerk Xiao Liu, and was a little stunned. Then he looked at Du Luo Yao and others, and seemed even more surprised.

Later that day, he met Luo Yao at Hongbin Tower, but he didn't know who Luo Yao was.

Luo Yao waved his hand, and the two policemen immediately retreated.

Are you Wu Sihuai?

Well, I'm Wu Sihuai. Wu Sihuai nodded.

How can I prove your identity?

This... Wu Sihuai suddenly pointed at the clerk Xiao Liu, He, the clerk Xiao Liu from Hongbin Tower, he knows me.

Xiao Liu, come forward and identify him to see if he is Wu Sihuai! Luo Yao ordered.

The clerk Xiao Liu walked over and took a closer look: Sir, this is indeed Wu Sihuai.

Wu Sihuai, can you answer a few questions for me?

Sir, you ask.

When did you move into Hongbin Building and when did you leave? How many days did you stay there in total? How much was the rent? What did you say to the boss when you checked out? Luo Yao asked, based on Brother Xiao Liu's identification cannot be fully confirmed, and a person should know his own situation very well, especially some details, which another person will definitely not know so clearly.

I moved into Hongbin Building on the 8th of last month. By the 15th of this month, I should have stayed for thirty-nine days. The rent is three yuan per day. Because I am a long-term resident, I have to pay for food. Including the money, Boss Yao charged me 150 yuan. I actually didn’t want to check out, but there was a murder in Hongbin Building. I am a timid person. I have to go through the door of that room to go to the toilet at night. I wanted to I have to change rooms, but who knows, if there is no suitable room, I will check out and go to live somewhere else... Wu Sihuai said it all, and basically everything he said to his clerk Xiao Liu was consistent.

Have you met a friend named He on the afternoon of the 14th?

Are you talking about He Peng?

Well, are you friends? Luo Yao nodded.

We can only say that we know each other, not friends. He is also a businessman. We met when we had dinner again. We met twice later, but we didn't talk to each other in depth. Wu Sihuai said.

Then why did he visit you that afternoon?

He said he had a batch of tung oil that he wanted to sell, and asked me if I wanted it. I said the price was right, of course. He sat at my place for a while, and then said he had something to do and left. Wu Sihuai said at the meeting.

When did he go to your place, and when did he leave? Luo Yao asked.

It seemed to be around two o'clock. I was getting ready to go out. I had some things to deal with in the afternoon. Then, he sat there with me for only ten minutes and then got up and left.

Xiao Liu, at what time did the He Peng you registered enter the Hongbin Building?

Around 1:40, said Mr. Liu, He came here less than two minutes after Doctor Yan left Hongbin Tower. I remember this time very clearly.

Between one forty and two o'clock, there are at least twenty minutes. How many minutes will it take for He Peng to go to your room?

He knows my room number. It's easy to find. It shouldn't take more than five minutes. Mr. Liu nodded in agreement with Wu Sihuai's words.

Luo Yao nodded. If Wu Sihuai's statement is accurate, then where did He Peng go for at least a quarter of an hour?

This is completely consistent with Xue Furong's confession, and Wu Sihuai's words just now also revealed a detail. If you want to go to Wu Sihuai's room, you will pass by the door of Xiao Rong's room.

Do you know where He Peng lives?

No. 6 Ciyun Street, Nanbin Road. He said he rented a house. I haven't been there, so I don't know about the rest.
