Chapter 4 Chapter 4 The Lady in Red

Director Kang is quite interested in what Sang Chu brought back, because he knows about the insurance company.Four years ago, he had sought the opinions of relevant departments and proposed a comprehensive arrest, but then he heard that Li Yi had been found and burned, so the proposal was cancelled.When Sang Chu talked about the woman who gave flowers, the first thing Lao Kang thought of was Li Yi's girlfriend. It was not until Sang Chu pointed out that Li Yi's girlfriend was another person that he basically clarified the relationship. "It looks like you want to get involved?" Lao Kang smiled, "However, nothing has happened right now, and no one has reported the crime. How do you intervene?"

"Don't worry about it." Sang Chu said, "If that Li Yi is really still alive, anyone can and should help find him! Just pretend I'm fine, I don't ask too much, give me a helper." "It's still Fatty." Old Kang said, "Don't be unhappy. Although Fatty is not mature enough, he is still good at business. As for his mouth that lacks control, you can take the time to rectify it. Do you want it? No second indivual." "Let's make up." Sang Chu didn't want to fight for anything, "Call the fat man here." The fat man was naturally scolded.He said that Yan Xuehao is more reliable and will never do bad things.At the same time, he emphasized that it should be recorded on his account if the mysterious woman was found to be in the insurance company.

"That's right, fat man. It's a common advantage of unmarried men." Sang Chu stroked the fat man's fat face. "From this afternoon till dark, you have to guard the insurance company like a dog. Make sure to stare at that woman and take note of where she lives, but don't disturb her! Do you understand?" "No problem!" said the fat man, "what are you doing?" "I still want to go to the construction site of Yindi Building. It would be great if there is a photo of Li Yi." "Look for the household registration police!" Fatty is more clever in this regard, "Go to the police station and check!"

"I'll send someone to do it." Director Kang took a more positive attitude. Sang Chu really thought about calling Yan Xuehao, which would make the identification work easier.But then he dismissed the idea and went alone.The reason is that Li Yi will recognize the surname Yan, which will be very passive. Based on the analysis of the current situation, the main people involved in the insurance company's matter are relatively clear: Li Yi, Song Fan, Manager Yan, the surname Bai, or Li Yi's girlfriend Jiang Ning, a total of five people. Before he broke into the insurance company, there was at most one person who knew about Li Yi's life and death, and that was Jiang Ning.It's different now, the branch is poked on the ant's nest, and there is definitely a lot of excitement.In addition, Xiao Li, the security guard, already knew his identity, so the old clock, which had been stopped for four years, was wound up again, and began to move according to its rules.

That's exactly what Sang Chul needs. On the way to Yindi Mansion, he analyzed the five people related to this matter one by one.Due to the limited clues he has, it is impossible for him to focus on Yan Zizhao and Baikov, and it is not logical according to the general law of solving cases.What interested him were the two young women, Song Fan and Jiang Ning, especially the latter. Therefore, when he arrived at the construction site, he had basically determined the direction of the next step: pay attention to Jiang Ning. If the situation is really as what Yan Xuehao said, Li Yi will not fail to meet Jiang Ning.As for Jiang Ning, he had just met him before, so he would definitely recognize him.Following the vine of Jiangning to touch the melon of Li Yi is actually something that trainee police officers can accomplish.Old Sangchu somewhat felt that he was doing something that didn't have much "oil and water".

I have to do it too!The face must be saved, and it is a little bit.There is no guarantee that the big boss will be behind. The rain stopped, the sky was still overcast, and the temperature dropped very badly.Sang Chu wrapped up a double-faced military raincoat, and wandered around the construction site with his neck curled up.The fat man gave him a BP machine, saying that it would be convenient to connect.So he thought about Fatty for a while, and realized that the overall impression he left on him was quite cute. It gradually darkened. The thousands of workers on the construction site came back from everywhere like herding sheep, and gathered in front of and behind the construction fence to wash their faces, urinate, and smoke.There is a food delivery truck driven by two women in their forties. They use the two-foot-long large rice spoon to stir in an extra-large aluminum bucket to scoop up the messy soup and water. Entering rice bowls one by one, the attitude is quite rude.Later, a small quarrel broke out because a migrant worker took away three steamed buns.

The light bulb in the shed was on. Sang Chu crouched and watched from a distance, feeling very excited.If it hadn't been for provoking these people in the morning, maybe they would have come forward to make a fuss.Of course I can't go now, I have to be beaten out of shit by those migrant workers. Suddenly, he found that there was someone walking around not far away, and it was Yan Xuehao.The other party didn't find him because the place where he squatted was relatively hidden.But the one surnamed Yan is too a fucking layman, standing in the bright place without talking, wandering endlessly, isn't this intentional for others to see?

Sang Chu flicked back and wrapped his raincoat tightly. That being said, the one surnamed Yan is more serious, and Li Yi must be brought to justice!He thought of Yan Xuehao's intention in the morning, his disbelief in everything.Xiao Li, the security guard, also felt the same way, but he didn't show it too much. It seems that things will be more complicated than I imagined! He shrank his neck and watched Yan Xuehao's actions along the neckline of his raincoat.At this moment, he thought a lot.Yes, don't be credulous!This idea is always coiled in my mind. Behind all kinds of complicated relationships are hidden unknowable interests, this logic of thinking is absolutely infallible!

Why is Yan Xuehao so active?Even at the expense of pulling himself in?Let's be suspicious. In addition, there is a fact that is not easy to grasp, and that is Li Yi's identity.Not to mention whether that Li Zaixing was his alias, just because of his status as a foreman, he probably wouldn't live in a shed with these migrant workers. In this way, it is not necessarily OK to sit on the sidelines. Thinking so, Sang Chu still has no intention of leaving.It may be a very old-fashioned disease, but he believes that waiting itself requires enough patience, and there is only a small chance of success.He only needs to capture this "small part" now.

Li Zaixing?Li Yi? It was completely dark. Yan Xuehao in the distance was constantly looking at his watch, obviously unable to stay still.Sure enough, he looked at his watch for the last time, then turned his head and walked behind a pile of stones. After a while, Yan Xuehao pushed a bicycle and appeared.He rode for a while on the road ahead, then turned around and rode slowly along the work shed.His head never left the doorway of the shed. This layman! Finally, Yan Xuehao turned his butt up in disappointment, and accelerated to ride along the slippery slope.Sang Chu stood up, spit out the long-extinguished cigarette butt at the corner of his mouth, and walked towards the bicycle. The moment he passed by, he grabbed the shelf behind the bicycle.

"Mr. Sang!" Yan Xuehao recognized him at a glance, and was quite surprised, "Why are you here?" "I'm supposed to be here!" Sang Chu called Yan Xuehao into the dark, "But you... why are you here?" "Maybe we both have the same purpose." "Oh! You even know my purpose?" "Aren't you looking for Li Yi?" "No! I'm looking for a girl." Sang Chu winked at him, "Really, I'm looking for a girl." "I see, you are waiting for Li Yi's girlfriend!" "That's right!" Sang Chu looked at Yan Xuehao's face, "Do you know this girl?" "I don't know." Yan Xuehao said, "However, I can ask." "No need! Her name is Jiang Ning, a cadre of the security company." Yan Xuehao was speechless, apparently overwhelmed by Sang Chu's efficiency, and asked after a long time, "Can I help you?" "Don't get it wrong." Sang Chu smiled; "Actually, I'm helping you. Okay, let's get down to business. Do you know that Li Yi still has a name?" "No, I only heard that his name is Li Yi." "Okay, let's do it!" Sang Chu raised his hand, "In the future, don't make any fuss. Waiting for others like you will fail ten times out of ten!" "And you! Do you still have to wait?" Yan Xuehao stepped into the car and asked. "Of course! I may fail nine times, for the one-tenth hope, wait a little longer!" Yan Xuehao raised his hand, got on his bike and left. Just then, the BP machine in Sang Chul's pocket rang. Fatty found the target.But it wasn't Song Fan, it was Jiang Ning.According to Sang Chu's introduction, he believed that this was Li Yi's girlfriend.She has a baby face, is not tall, and has her eyes squinted, giving her a special charm. At that time, Jiang Ning was walking quickly down the stone steps of the insurance company, walking west along a row of boutique houses, and there was a very narrow alley between the two shops.Jiang Ning walked in and didn't come out again. When the fat man quickly caught up, Jiang Ning had already turned out of the alley at the other end.He leaned against the wall to stabilize his mind, put his hands in his pockets and followed quickly. It wasn't because of carelessness, but because he was so focused that he didn't look back.Otherwise, he would see a middle-aged man who was about the same size as him, but only half his "thickness", following behind, and this person was Baikov. So far, Fatty's full understanding of the case is still at the briefing stage.Normally, he should pay more attention to that mysterious woman named Song Fan.However, when everyone has a chance, when he saw that baby face at a glance, he "naturally" felt that he needed to keep an eye on him. The insurance premium of more than two million yuan, Li Yi, and this girlfriend, from the benefits to the From the point of view, this girl is much more important than Song Fan. It should be said that his feeling was correct.The downside is that there is no more brainstorming. Not long after, Jiang Ning walked around the alley onto the road.The fat man followed unhurriedly. He wasn't worried about anything, because Jiang Ning's red trench coat was easy to recognize.A small wind blew towards him, and he took a few steps backwards, almost hitting a tree. Jiang Ning crossed the road looking left and right, and stood under the opposite bus stop sign.The fat man turned up his collar and followed.Soon, the distance between him and Jiang Ning was only one meter. If you turned your head to look, you could even count the girl's eyelashes clearly. Bai Kefu on the opposite side of the road did not follow, but leaned against a sycamore tree with his back, squinting at the movement on the other side.He didn't pay much attention to that fat thing, and devoted all his energy to Jiang Ning.Of course he is not a fat man, he knows that Jiang Ning has a bicycle, that's why he keeps an eye on Jiang Ning.There is a car but not a bicycle, and the bus she is waiting for is not her way home. These two points alone are enough for people to ponder. The trouble was, he couldn't keep up.It would be very bad if Jiang Ning found him, he was a little bit blind. There were seven or eight people at the station, and no one spoke to anyone.Jiang Ning stood on the side of the road with both feet, black half-heeled leather shoes close together, toes up and down, looking very leisurely.The fat man stood on the back of her left side, so he could easily see the hairy neck of the other party exposed under the hair tip. This little girl is not simple!It took some guts to dare to set her boyfriend on fire and bring back an urn.Even if everything is a trick to deceive people, she shouldn't be playing it.not simple! He didn't dislike the girl, and still does.Just like he didn't hate Song Fan, what attracted him more was the sense of mystery carried by the two women. One went to the cemetery to send flowers on a rainy night, and the other was involved in a conspiracy involving a huge sum of more than two million yuan.God!Who can see all this from the outside.The streets are full of people, is everyone so mysterious? If so, the world in front of me is so fucking interesting. The car pulled into the station, Jiang Ning stepped off the curb, followed the car door.The fat man followed her into the car, and deliberately gave her a hug with his hips. Jiang Ning gave him a blank look and said nothing. Bai Kefu on the other side of the road walked around the tree and raised his hand to stop a taxi.He couldn't bear to let go of this opportunity, he had to figure it out. "Where are you going?" the driver asked without looking back. "Follow the bus ahead." The driver turned on the taximeter: "The time lost will be counted as money." Listening to the tone, the taxi driver saw the purpose of the passenger. "No problem, let's go." Two cars, one big and one small, drove onto the road at the same speed.The street lights are already on, and the traffic on the road is not too crowded.Baikov grabbed the handrail in front and stared at the rear window of the bus.Jiang Ning couldn't be seen from here, he did this only because of his mood. In terms of fighting mind, he is no match for Yan Zizhao.For this reason, he must grasp more information. As for the usefulness, he can't control that much now. Things are changing, and it is a very terrible change.This change is not something he is capable of dealing with, one Jiang Ning, one Yan Zizhao, and one Li Yi, these are three big rocks hanging above his head, any one of them will smash him into a meatloaf.The only way to completely solve the problem is to get rid of these three people, which is almost impossible. He believed that Yan Zizhao must have had this idea in his heart.That old bastard! Hatred often appears when bad luck comes. At the moment of being a tiger's sidekick, all he thinks about is money.More than two million yuan, a windfall that he didn't even dare to think about, once it became within reach or at his fingertips, all the thinking procedures were disrupted and simplified.Yan Zizhao's distribution is very fair, 50-50, half and half.At that time, there were only four words left in their minds, and there was no proof. You must know that the man is not dead (he still firmly believes that Li Yi is still alive), even if he cut off his head, he dare not ask for that money!Yan Zizhao!the devil.Damn it, he also knows that money burns his hands now! If he really wanted to kill anyone, he would be the first to kill the one surnamed Yan.Nothing! Almost vaguely, he felt that Li Yi was taking piecemeal methods to push him and Yan Zizhao to a dead end bit by bit.I kept silent for the first three and a half years, and then started to act, asking for 10,000 each time, simmering the fat sheep to get all the oil out of you.This move is too cruel and too clever, it will boil you to death! However, he can understand Li Yi's approach, and if he changes his position, he will do the same!Falling and throwing stones, and then covering and covering him, once this person survives, any means of revenge will not be too much! Now that Li Yi wants to kill him, Bai Kefu will stick his head over obediently. The condition... is that I hope Li Yi will let him kill Yan Zizhao first! In theory, Baikov has already made clear the various relationships mentioned above.But everyone wants to live, and death is just a bad idea.The current behavior is precisely the result of the desire to live.At least if possible, he wants to fight for one! This is a common instinct of all animals. What's more, there is still so much money stimulating him. The taxi followed the bus in front slowly, keeping a distance of twenty or thirty meters.The driver didn't ask anything and just drove. Due to the temperature difference between inside and outside, the fan-shaped marks made by the wipers were a bit blurred.The driver wiped it carelessly with a rag.Baikov suddenly knocked on the glass: "Get down here!" After handing over the money, he waved his hand and got out of the car quietly.At that time, Jiang Ning just jumped off the bus.He turned his back to avoid being recognized by the other party.Coincidentally, a fat man whose back was wider than the door panel blocked his view. Out of the corner of his eye, he saw the driver check the watermark on the banknote against the light, then tucked it away, closed the door and drove away. In front is the ancient city hotel. It took a while before Baikov dared to turn around.The flat "door panel" was shaking in front, facing the light from the hotel gate, he saw Jiang Ning's light figure flashing into the store door. The fat guy in front suddenly quickened his pace and aimed at Jiang Ning.Baikov's heart sank, as if he felt something.He didn't dare to follow, he just paced back and forth a few times on the spot.The fat man never left his sight from the alley, and then came to the bus station, got on the bus, and followed here. Not right! Baikov was keenly aware of something, and in just a few seconds, he hesitated.God!Jiang Ning was actually targeted!He didn't believe it was a coincidence. Can you get in? After all, he was a soldier, and Bai Kefu knew what to do in a critical moment. If he didn't follow up, this trip would undoubtedly be meaningless.He lit a cigarette, looked back and forth, and walked resolutely to the door of the hotel. The fat man was leaning against the telephone in front of the service desk.There were a lot of people in the hall, Baikov wandered around in front of a few suitcases for a while, and then slowly approached. Someone wanted to make a call, but the fat man raised his hand to stop it.From the gesture of the other party, he saw something familiar.It's a policeman. The phone rings. The fat man grabbed the receiver: "Come on! Champa Hotel...yes, it's the ancient city hotel in the east of the city!" Can't stay long!Baikov glanced at the mahogany stairs and slipped away quietly. When Sang Chu arrived, the fat man was still wandering in the hall.He briefly introduced the situation, and finally said: "So I gave up on Song Fan and focused on this Jiang Ning." "Yes, yes, Song Fan can't escape anyway." Sang Chu had nothing to do with Fatty changing his target without authorization, "What is your purpose of following Jiang Ning?" "No purpose." Fatty Hu shook his head and laughed, "Or, I want to find out where she lives and trap her and Li Yi in a nest. Who the hell would have thought she came to the hotel." "This shows...I mean, if Li Yizhen returns to the ancient city, he will live in a hotel." Sang Chu glanced at the old and unhygienic hotel.Compared with what the migrant workers said this morning, it was quite right for the contractor to live in this "level" apartment.However, can this kind of place be used to pick up chicks?He believes that the so-called "chick" of the migrant workers is undoubtedly Jiang Ning. "Hey, Fatty! Did she go up here?" "This is the staircase!" The fat man pointed to the staircase in front of him and said, "There is another staircase of the same stair at the back. Could it be that the two of us are blocking each other?" Sang Chu waved his hand and walked towards the service desk: "There is no need to block, and I have no right to block! Of course, Li Yi is another matter." With the cooperation of the waiters, they searched the registration book of the dormitory personnel. There was no one named Li Yi at all, but there was one named "Li Zaixing", but the registered age was 65 years old and he left early last month. Sang Chu called the fat man behind the pillar, and asked in a low voice, "Are there any restaurants or hotels along this bus route?" The fat man counted with his fingers and said there were four or five more, but they were not too big. "Man." Sang Chu led the fat man out of the door, "I doubt what you told that girl to see. She feinted a shot here to tease us." "No way?" Fatty looked at the store door, "How could it be?" "Whether it will or not, you just listen to me. It won't hurt to check the hotels on this line and implement it. Be careful, don't ignore the name 'Li Zaixing'." "Jiang Ning is still in the restaurant." The fat man pointed to the store door. "It's okay, I'll stay here." The fat man went away disgruntled.Sang Chu wrapped up his raincoat and squatted down in the corner on the south side of the hotel.He lit a cigarette, blocked the fire with the hem of his raincoat, and smoked one puff at a time.If you don't suck it, you can't do it. There is a foul smell in this corner. After smoking the second cigarette, Jiang Ning's figure appeared at the entrance of the hotel.The girl looked around vigilantly, then lowered her head, and quickly walked back in the direction she came from. Sang Chu was dumbfounded. The judgment was only half right. Jiang Ning was sure that Fatty was suspicious, and it was obvious that he led him to the Ancient City Hotel. The mistake was that he entrusted the search direction to a certain hotel in front. Imagination is ten times smarter, people go back. Hey!The treacherous and cunning Sang Chu was raped by a little girl. Let the fat man go find it slowly, and nine times out of ten there will be no gains.Even now, if I keep an eye on that girl, I can't guarantee that I won't be fooled again. He stared at the red windbreaker in front of him from a distance, and tucked his head into the neckline as much as possible.At this moment, there is no need to worry that Jiang Ning will doubt him. The so-called memory retention is still working. The suspicious object in Jiang Ning's mind is a fat man, which is a purely physiological phenomenon. After walking about one stop, Jiang Ning walked into an alley.There was a dim street lamp at the entrance of the alley, which made the red windbreaker flash.Sang Chu continued to move forward, and he couldn't stop at this moment. Just looking at his small dark stature, it is very easy to arouse people's not-so-good associations. As he passed the alley, he squinted in.Seeing that the red windbreaker has floated quite a distance, at least two telegraph poles away.The long, small figure was reflected on the ground, and the alley was deep and quiet.follow?Sang Chu thought.Following up like this will immediately arouse the vigilance of the other party.And it would be a pity to give up. Can not give up! Old Sangchu's brains were spinning rapidly, and finally he chose the anchor point of the relationship between the two parties: now he is facing a girl full of scheming, most of everything she does comes from a person named Li Yi behind her.Well, since Li Yi dared to return to the ancient city today after disappearing for four years, he undoubtedly considered all kinds of possibilities, including the various dangers he would face.In the face of such an opponent, it is not enough to just go around in circles, it is better to meet directly.What's more, Li Yi must carry out a certain action when he returns, and the time cannot afford it.You never know when things will turn bad!At this time, revealing your identity is at least a deterrent.Besides, this Jiang Ning was also present when she broke into the insurance company in the morning, so she was already alert. It should be unveiled! Old Sangchu had made up his mind, turned around quickly, and walked quickly towards the red wind watch in front of him. Jiang Ning glanced behind him, his gait remained undisturbed.The distance between the two is rapidly narrowing.After a while, Jiang Ning slowed down. When Sang Chu walked four or five meters away from her, the girl stopped and turned around slowly. There is no doubt that at first glance, she recognized Sang Chu. "Hello." Jiang Ning said an inappropriate greeting very calmly. Sang Chu took out a cigarette and lit it, and took a deep breath: "I'm not well, I'm still hungry!" silence. The two people are so close, and there is something similar to a tacit understanding inexplicably.Sang Chu squeezed the butt of the cigarette, sucked it hard, threw it on the ground and stamped it out. "Miss, I think it is necessary to talk to you." Jiang Ning looked over his shoulder, glanced at the entrance of the alley, and said, "What are you talking about? I don't even know who you are." "This is the second time we've met." "It doesn't mean anything." Jiang Ning shrugged, "It's no different from meeting once twenty times." "You should at least know what I do." "Oh, wrong! I'm not interested in you." Sang Chuao smiled: "You are wrong too! I think you are very interested in me. Ah, don't deny it! It is best not to play foolish games among smart people." "Well, first of all, you should explain why you are following me?" Jiang Ning took the offensive. Sang Chu hummed: "Ask all your questions, and I'll answer them together." "Please answer this first." "Is there still a need to answer this?" Sang Chu tilted his head, "I have explained the purpose in your company this morning. You can't be unclear. What needs to be corrected is that my identity is a policeman." Jiang Ning bit her lip: "Oh, it seems that I guessed right!" "Yes, you are very smart!" Sang Chu said, "So, I don't need to explain the purpose of staring at all." "Why are you looking for Li Yi?" Jiang Ning cut to the point. "Okay, very happy!" Sang Chu sighed sincerely.Jiang Ning's words explained all the relationship. It seems that this girl is not only smart, but also very confident. "Let me tell you clearly, the reason I am looking for him is because I heard that he is still alive." "Sir!" Jiang Ning's eyebrows twitched, "I think you're talking crazy, absolutely crazy! Li Yi has been dead for four years!" superb!As soon as he opened his mouth, he closed the door. Sang Chu took out a cigarette and lit it, thinking about how to open the gap: "Miss, I repeat, let's not play that meaningless fool's game! Li Yi is not dead, someone has seen him recently. " "Then let me tell you, the person who said this is either an idiot or has ulterior motives!" Jiang Ning's face was particularly ugly, "Li Yi drowned in the disaster area of ​​Laolongmen, and I collected the body with my own hands! His ashes are buried in the public cemetery!" "The fourth row, pit thirteen." Jiang Ning was startled, but calmed down again in an instant: "There is a white catalpa wood urn in the pit, inside is three bones wrapped in yellow silk, and there is also a pack of Weishuping, which was indispensable for him during his lifetime." "Li Yi has a stomach problem?" "The stomach is full enough to do this job." Jiang Ning looked at Sang Chu, "What else do you want to know?" "Is there a huge sum of 2.14 million yuan?" Jiang Ning suddenly let out a sneer: "Money! It's money again! In your eyes, is money more important than human life?" "Don't get excited, Miss!" Sang Chu felt that this sneer contained very complicated emotions and was very real, "Life is much more important than money. But the premise must be the right way! Otherwise, it's another matter. " "I can only tell you!" Jiang Ning said sternly, "The insurer in Laolongkou was won by Li Yi after traveling through mountains and rivers. Sometimes he can only eat one meal a day!" A conscientious Li Yi! "Girl." Sang Chu changed her name, "How about we find a place to eat something? I really want to know more about Li Yi. Would you like to do me a favor?" Jiang Ning did not refuse. The two walked out of the deep alley and found a not too big but relatively clean restaurant nearby.Sang Chu asked Jiang Ning to order, and Jiang Ning mercilessly made the old man bleed.However, she refused to talk about Li Yi.Until the breakup, Li Yi was still a mystery in Sang Chu's mind. Catalpa wooden box, yellow silk, three bones...and that thought-provoking sentence: either idiot or ulterior motives. The red trench coat gradually drifted away in the night.
