Chapter 7 Chapter 6 Suspects Mr. Pan and Wu Lingling

Xia Zicheng and Zhong Mingyue learned that according to the secret investigation of Mr. Pan by their colleague Chen Min, there are three members of Mr. Pan's family, except for his daughter who is in elementary school, his wife Wu Lingling.According to the information obtained from the investigation, Mr. Pan and Wu Lingling have always had a bad relationship, and someone once saw Mr. Pan dating Mi Lip.As for whether Boss Pan and Nana are lovers, they still have no definite evidence.For this matter, they decided to ask President Pan.In addition, you can learn about the extent of the relationship between Mi Lip and him from Mr. Pan.However, Chen Min's investigation made Xia Zicheng give up the truth investigation of whether Nana is Mr. Pan's lover.

As for Nana, Xia Zicheng also asked his team members to investigate secretly, and the news he got surprised him.On the night of the 7th, according to the security guard of the apartment in the wealthy area, Nana returned to the apartment at around 12:30 in the middle of the night.This news shows that Nana is not the murderer.But why did she hide her relationship with Mr. Pan?Are you really just ashamed to say it?He recalled that when he asked Nana if she was Mr. Pan's lover, Nana showed a desperate expression. No matter which man met him, he couldn't believe that she would lie.If Nana didn't lie, it would prove that Dongwen was lying, but why did Dongwen do this? Could it be that he and Nana have any quarrel?All questions are waiting for him to investigate.

Regarding the visit of the two captains, although Mr. Pan did not appear to be extremely disgusted on the surface, Xia Zicheng and Zhong Mingyue still felt his inner uneasiness. "I'm really sorry to bother Mr. Pan again." Xia Zicheng sat down on the leather sofa in Mr. Pan's office and said politely. "It doesn't matter. After all, Mi Lip is my editor-in-chief. Of course, I am very concerned about whether she is missing or dead. Because she has not been at work recently, many things in the company cannot be handled properly." President Pan leaned slightly on the leather chair opposite them. said with his back.

"Boss Pan took time out of his busy schedule to receive us, so I'd better speak directly." Xia Zicheng didn't want to waste any more time. "I'll tell you all I know, please go ahead." "I'm afraid you won't dare to say it later." Zhong Mingyue looked directly at him, slowly took out her notebook and spread it on the coffee table in front of her. "According to our investigation, President Pan and his wife Wu Lingling don't seem to have a particularly good relationship." Xia Zicheng looked at him to see his reaction. "This... This is my family business, there is no need to tell you." Boss Pan was taken aback for a moment, then said calmly.

"Of course we have no right to ask about your emotional relationship, but the case seems to be related to your emotional relationship." "Oh...how could it be?" Mr. Pan showed a surprised expression. "As far as I know, Mr. Pan..." Xia Zicheng looked at the other party and said in a low voice, "The relationship between you and Mi Lip is not as simple as an employee and a boss, but a relationship between lovers. I have nothing to say about this. Wrong." Boss Pan lowered his head in shock, bit his lips, then looked up at the other party and said, "It's unexpected that you can investigate this matter clearly. I really admire you criminal police from the bottom of my heart."

"Thank you for the compliment!" Zhong Mingyue's mouth twitched, revealing a faint smile. "President Pan, I have a doubt in my heart, please don't take offense when I say it." Xia Zicheng said. "Please say it's okay!" Mr. Pan made a clear gesture. Zhong Mingyue saw that his movement seemed to be a habitual one. "As far as I know, Wu Lingling is even prettier than Mi Chun, why did Mr. Pan fall in love with Mi Chun?" "This..." Boss Pan frowned and said after a moment of silence, "I might as well tell you that my life is actually not happy. Although Wu Lingling is as beautiful as a flower, she has a cold personality, and we have never communicated. The reason why I was with her was because she was beautiful, but I didn’t think about the real family, it was not like that. She and I were like people separated by a river. It wasn’t until I met Mi Lip that I realized that she was It's the woman I'm looking for. We can communicate with each other, so we can say that we are in love, even though we have cold eyes behind our backs." The more Mr. Pan said, the more excited he became.

Xia Zi was obsessed with his words, which did not seem to be lying. "So, Wu Lingling also knows about you and Mi Lip?" Zhong Mingyue's pen shook in mid-air. Mr. Pan calmed down a little and nodded. "How did she react when she found out?" Zhong Mingyue continued to ask. "Of course she was very angry like all women, and she came to the office to make noise, but she knew clearly that I would not divorce, because she brought everything about me. So it gradually faded away." Zhong Mingyue quickly recorded. "You mean to say that they haven't had any conflicts since then?" Xia Zicheng analyzed slowly.

"As far as I know, that's true." Boss Pan nodded firmly. "How long has it been since the beginning of your relationship with Mi Lip until you disappeared?" Zhong Mingyue felt that this point still needed to be clarified, so she raised her head and asked. "Two or three months." "How long has it been since your wife found out?" "Well... it's not even a month." "With regard to the above situation, we will investigate clearly, but we still need to ask you some personal questions." Xia Zicheng vaguely felt that Wu Lingling had a motive for killing, "It is impossible for a woman to tolerate another woman capturing her husband's heart so easily. .”

President Pan nodded. "I want to ask, where exactly were you on the night of the seventh of this month? Can anyone prove it?" "On the seventh of this month... Call, that night, because of the magazine cover, Mr. Zhang from the printing factory invited me to dinner, and then went to KTV." "Do you have Mr. Zhang's contact information?" Zhong Mingyue glanced at him. "Yes." Mr. Pan quickly took out his mobile phone, looked up Mr. Zhang's phone number and handed it to Zhong Mingyue.Zhong Mingyue glanced at it, and wrote it down in her mind.

"You were singing all the time that night, was it just the two of you?" Xia Zicheng asked. "No, there are still several employees of Mr. Zhang." "What time is it?" "We finished eating at about eight o'clock, and then went to sing, and left around twelve o'clock, and I went home directly after leaving." "Did Mi Lip contact you during the period, or did you call her?" "Well... I called her at 8:30, but she went out because of something, and I didn't explain what it was. Then I called her before I left home, and she had already turned off the phone. She is used to turning off the phone before going to bed. , so I didn't think much about it."

Xia Zicheng pondered for a moment, glanced at Zhong Mingyue, and then left. After Zhong Mingyue got in the car, she put her notebook on the front of the car, then called Mrs. Zhang, roughly told him that they were criminal police officers, and wanted to know some details about the night of the 7th of this month.The other party hesitated and agreed to their request. They explained their purpose to the security guard of the printing factory, and the security guard enthusiastically led them into the factory area and directly to the office. Zhang is always a man in his fifties, with a solid build, sharp eyes, and slightly gray hair.He politely asked them to sit down on the chairs and said, "Do you smoke?" He said and picked up the cigarettes on the table. Xia Zicheng and Zhong Mingyue glanced at each other, the corners of their mouths moved, and they shook their heads. Mr. Zhang pulled up a chair and sat down opposite them, and said, "If you want to know anything from me, just ask." Xia Zicheng and Zhong Mingyue nodded, and the questioning began. They still follow the old rules, Xia Zicheng asked, Zhong Mingyue recorded. "Excuse me, Mr. Zhang, do you usually have dinner with Mr. Pan?" "That's not true. But the night you called No. 7, I did invite him to dinner because of the printing of the magazine cover, and then I went to KTV." "Can you tell me the exact time?" "That night, I left the factory at 6:30 and drove straight to the hotel where I had dinner. It was about 7 o'clock when I arrived. I waited for about 15 minutes, and Mr. Pan came alone." Mr. Zhang supported his knees with his hands, Holding his face, he said thoughtfully, "We finished our meal around eight o'clock, and Boss Pan suddenly proposed to go. I saw that I didn't have anything to do in the evening, so I agreed to him." "When will it end?" "Around twelve o'clock." "Did Mr. Pan make a phone call that night, or did he ever leave KTV? These clues are very important to us, please Mr. Zhang think carefully." Xia Zicheng suddenly looked at the other party seriously. Mr. Zhang felt the weight of Xia Zicheng's tone, frowned, and said: "That night... at half past eight, it shouldn't be wrong. We had just booked the room and hadn't sung yet. Mr. Pan suddenly received a call. I was next to me, and I heard a woman's voice, then Boss Pan hung up the phone with an uneasy expression, and then said that he had something to go out, and he would come back at about ten o'clock." Xia Zicheng and Zhong Mingyue sensed that something was wrong and glanced at each other. "Can you confirm when Mr. Pan will come back? Also, can you tell who called him?" Xia Zicheng followed up. "Well...about ten ten o'clock, because I called him before ten o'clock, so it was about that time." Mr. Zhang tried hard to recall. "Ten ten?" Xia Zicheng and Zhong Mingyue thought to themselves, "The time of Mi Lip's death was from ten to twelve, so Mr. Pan is indeed very suspicious, and why did he hide from them that he had As for the matter of going out, could it be that he went out to kill Mi Lip at that time, and only dumped the body late at night, but he rarely met his true love, so how could he kill Mi Lip so easily? Unless something incredible happened during the period Things forced him to do it." "Could it be that something happened that you are investigating Boss Pan like this?" Boss Zhang felt that they were asking for Boss Pan, so he asked in a low voice. "Has Mr. Zhang heard of the death case in Donghu?" Xia Zicheng continued. "It is said that people in the ancient city are paying attention to this case." Mr. Zhang suddenly paused, and said in surprise, "Do you suspect that Mr. Pan is related?" "According to the clues we have so far, the deceased may be Mr. Pan's editor-in-chief, Mi Lip. Presumably Mr. Zhang also knew her." "Mi Lips? No way," Mr. Zhang said immediately, "I met her a few times in Pan's head office. It's considered an acquaintance, but there was no real communication." "According to our investigation, Mr. Pan and Mi Lip used to be lovers. Has Mr. Zhang heard about this?" Xia Zicheng thought it necessary to ask this question, maybe more information could be obtained from Mr. Zhang . "I have heard a little bit about it, and I also heard that Mr. Wu went to the company to make troubles a few times, but it seems to have disappeared after that." Mr. Zhang gradually calmed down. "We shouldn't discuss their feelings behind their backs, but it's related to the case, so we brought it up." Xia Zicheng pondered, and said, "Does Mr. Zhang know anything about Mr. Wu?" "Because Mr. Wu is in charge of the company's accounts, we have quite a lot of contact with her. I know she is a pretty and shrewd woman, but I know from Mr. Pan that their relationship is not very good. As for the others, I don't know. It's all too clear." Xia Zicheng glanced at Zhong Mingyue, knowing that they had nothing to ask, they said goodbye. Mr. Zhang kept sending them out enthusiastically. Zhong Mingyue jumped into the car and still put the laptop on the front of the car. Xia Zicheng drove out of the factory, made a big turn, and then got on the road, driving steadily. "He is such a rare enthusiastic guy." Zhong Mingyue said with a smile. Xia Zicheng was thinking about the problem all the way, but he didn't seem to hear Zhong Mingyue's self-mockery. They conducted an investigation according to the address given by Mr. Pan and Mr. Zhang. From the surveillance video, they saw that Mr. Pan did indeed leave at 40:00 that night, and then returned at 10:15. Coming out of the hotel, Zhong Mingyue stopped and looked at Xia Zicheng and said, "Let's ask Mr. Pan first, or what?" "From the surveillance video, we can see that Mr. Pan made a phone call before he left that night. If he really called Mi Lip, I wonder why he would call her if he killed Mi Lip, unless he was lying. .” "You mean to say that his phone call is true, but the call to Mi Lip is false. He did all this because he thought we would investigate." "But if you think about it carefully, there's no need for him to do this." Xia Zicheng got into the car and turned on the ignition and said, "It will be clear to find out where he went when he left, but since he deliberately concealed it, it must be very important. Things, even if we go to investigate now, I am afraid he has already planned to lie against us." "Then what do you mean?" "Wu Lingling." "Wu Lingling?" Zhong Mingyue was stunned when she heard this familiar but unfamiliar name. "Let's investigate Wu Lingling first. I feel more and more that this case is not so simple. In addition, the direct purpose of our visit is not only to investigate Wu Lingling, but also to know from her what time Mr. Pan returned home on the night of the 7th. of." "Thinking so thoughtfully, you are indeed my captain." Zhong Mingyue couldn't help but patted Xia Zicheng on the shoulder. "Stop doing that." Xia Zicheng smiled.But the hearts of both of them were shrouded in the shadow of the truth of the case. The call to Wu Lingling was still made by Zhong Mingyue. "Hello, I'm Zhong Mingyue, the deputy captain of the Criminal Police Brigade in Gucheng. May I ask if you are Wu Lingling?... I'm really sorry, because of some things about Mr. Pan and the case of Donghu, I want to visit you. Is it convenient? ...Well, very good, we will go there now, as for where is more convenient to meet?...Really? Very good, we will rush over now. We will talk again in an hour... hang up first. " "What did Wu Lingling say?" "We can go there now and make an appointment to meet at her house. The address is Hankou. It will take about an hour's drive." An hour later, the car entered Hankou's Spanish-style architectural style street and went straight, then turned a corner, and the Spanish-style apartment had a panoramic view.These apartments are all exposed to the outside. Each apartment has five floors and a small independent garden in front of the door. Xia Zicheng asked the security guard of the apartment, drove in directly, drove along the path between the garden and the apartment, made two turns, and parked in front of one of the apartments. They jumped out of the car respectively and walked towards the door of the apartment without haste. Xia Zicheng rang the doorbell. After a while, the sound of small footsteps came from inside, and he paused inside the door, observing the people outside through the pinhole of the door, and then slowly opened the door. They were still slightly surprised when they saw the woman in front of them.Xia Zicheng looked at her carefully, with a delicate oval face under wavy black hair, fair skin like snow, reflecting the charming autumn waves, wearing a tight-fitting white cotton coat and jeans.She looks exactly like a girl, with no trace of a young woman. "You are Wu Lingling, right? We called you an hour ago." Zhong Mingyue hurriedly greeted her, and then took out her criminal police certificate. "Yes, please come in and talk." Wu Lingling looked past them, stopped on the police car, and then retracted her gaze and turned around. After they entered, they sat down on the leather chairs in the living room. Wu Lingling watched them and said, "Do you two want something?" When Wu Lingling mentioned this, they suddenly smelled a strong fragrance. "Mr. Wu is so interested in making coffee?" Xia Zicheng asked with a smile. "It seems that you, Xing Cun, have been exposed to these refreshing things a lot, how about each of you getting some?" They nodded shyly. While Wu Lingling was pouring coffee inside, they observed the room.The windows are bright and clean, and the decoration is exquisite. Not an ordinary family can have such a beautiful house.Both of them looked a little bit big-eyed. After a while, Wu Lingling brought coffee in front of them, raised her hand to invite them to taste it, and then sat elegantly across from them. "I'm sorry to bother you and ask you to make coffee yourself," Xia Zicheng said. "It's not a big deal. Anyway, the house is usually very quiet. It's rare for two handsome criminal policemen to come." Wu Lingling's mouth twitched stiffly. They laughed awkwardly. "In order not to waste Mr. Wu's time, I think it's better to start asking questions." Zhong Mingyue checked the time, it was already four o'clock in the afternoon. "You roughly talked about it on the phone just now. As for the specifics, please ask." Wu Lingling held the coffee spoon in her hand and stirred it gently. "We want to know when Mr. Pan returned home on the night of the 7th of this month." Xia Zicheng glanced at Zhong Mingyue and began to ask. Zhong Mingyue unhurriedly took out her notebook. "On the night of the seventh... Well, it seems that he came home around one o'clock in the middle of the night. At that time, I had already fallen asleep and was in a daze. I don't remember very clearly." "Are you sure it's around one o'clock at night?" Xia Zicheng asked. Wu Lingling thought for a moment, then shook her head. Zhong Mingyue stopped recording and looked at Xia Zicheng thinking: "It seems that things are not as simple as imagined." "We will continue to investigate this point, but we still have more important questions to ask you." Xia Zicheng hesitated. "Please tell me." Wu Lingling said calmly.It seemed that she had guessed what topic would be asked of her. "It's about Mi Lip. Mr. Wu must have heard about Mi Lip's disappearance." "I saw it on the news." "Does Mr. Wu have any thoughts on Mi Lip's disappearance?" Xia Zicheng directly entered the topic, examining the other party. "What do you mean..." Wu Lingling understood instantly, "I can't say I'm happy or gloating." "My husband's lover is missing. As a wife, I should be happy." "You can put it this way. But, do you suspect that I did it?" Wu Lingling said, staring at Xia Zicheng with wide eyes. Xia Zicheng looked at Wu Lingling's beautiful eyelashes and raised her eyebrows. For some reason, he thought of another woman. "Normally speaking, you are indeed very suspicious, but if you didn't kill the person, there is no need to worry, right?" Zhong Mingyue clearly sensed Wu Lingling's uneasy expression. Wu Lingling gradually calmed down and remained silent. "In order to prove your innocence, you must provide your alibi on the night of the seventh of this month." Xia Zicheng said seriously. "On the night of the 7th...it happened to be a friend of mine's birthday. I went out at about 7 o'clock, and then went to the cake shop where the birthday cake was pre-ordered, and then went directly to the friend's apartment." "Can you provide the cake shop's phone number and your friend's phone number?" Zhong Mingyue said. "Yes." Wu Lingling stood up as she spoke, turned around and entered the room, handed the cake shop card to Zhong Mingyue after a while, and gave her friend's phone number. "We will investigate the specific situation carefully, but I still want to ask when you returned to the apartment that night." Xia Zicheng stared at the other party sharply and said. "I left my friend's house at 11:30, and it was almost 12:20 when I returned to the apartment. Because I felt tired, I fell asleep in a daze after a while." Wu Lingling said calmly. Xia Zicheng thought for a while, and seemed to have nothing to ask. He glanced at Zhong Mingyue, saw him shake his head, and said, "I'm sorry to disturb you today." "It's nothing. It's just that I don't want to affect my life because of Mi Lip. I hope you can investigate the truth of the matter as soon as possible." Wu Lingling stood up as she spoke, as if she was about to see off the guests. "Of course. Thank you for the coffee." They stood up in unison and walked towards the door. After coming out of Wu Lingling's apartment, they called up the surveillance video of President Pan and Wu Lingling returning home on the 7th from the security office of the apartment. From the surveillance video, it can be seen that the husband and wife returned home at almost the same time as Wu Lingling said.They froze for a moment, and suddenly felt that all the previous investigations were a waste of time, and they never found the real murderer.However, in order to confirm what Wu Lingling said, they still went to the cake shop and Wu Lingling's friend's house. The result was as Wu Lingling said, but there was a little suspicion. When Wu Lingling was at a friend's house, she once went out after 8:30. What was it? There is no explanation of where to go, and I came back after ten o'clock. "Mr. Pan and Wu Lingling both went out at that time. Is it really a coincidence?" After leaving Wu Lingling's friend's house, Zhong Mingyue closed the notebook and looked ahead suspiciously. "I'm afraid it's not a coincidence, but a premeditated murder." Xia Zicheng was driving a police car, feeling more and more confused about the case. "You mean to say that they probably made an appointment with Mi Lip that night, and then killed Mi Lip and then dumped his body." "If they conspired, the case would be full of contradictions. But according to the clues we know so far, it is impossible for them to conspire to kill Mi Lip. Besides, who is the person who dumped the body?" "Is it possible that one of them hired a murderer to kill him?" "It's not ruled out, but it's more risky." "It seems that the case is getting more complicated and confusing." Xia Zicheng's brows were gradually furrowed. He had indeed encountered the most difficult case in his life.While driving, he looked at the streets of the ancient city where the smog was gradually rising, and suddenly the words of the "murderer" flashed in his mind: "After the game starts, you have to investigate who I am. Of course, when all the evidence is insufficient, I'll let you know when you get lost in the case. Hahaha—” "Is it really as the 'murderer' said?" He couldn't help shivering.But from the incident to the present, the "killer" seems to have disappeared from the earth, without any news. "President Pan, Wu Lingling, and Nana, is it possible that one of them is a 'killer'? Or is everything just speculation."
