"Alright, you can go out. Let them come in one by one. I don't believe that I can't find the reason. If it really wasn't done by our brothers, I will also show the evidence to Xu Yun, "Du Yufeng said." I can't let the Suhang police have stains on our faces. Absolutely not. No matter what, I need to give him an explanation for this matter. "
Zhang Yuanjun wanted to say something but hesitated. In the end, he nodded and left the ward. Soon, someone walked in. Faced with Du Yufeng's interrogation, everyone answered the questions very seriously. Du Yufeng had dealt with people who did bad things all his life, so he could tell if anyone was guilty or not.
Soon, a few people passed by. Du Yufeng had no clue at all. He also hoped that this matter could eliminate all the suspicions of his own people. He also did not want his face to be smeared, but his intuition told Du Yufeng that this matter was very likely done by the criminal police team. This kind of dilemma made him feel uncomfortable all over.
Finally, the young criminal police officer who had said that he seemed to have seen a jade pendant at the scene came in. Du Yufeng's eyes lit up. He needed to get the most important clue. "Xiao Feng, are you sure you really saw a piece of jade?"
"Chief Du, the situation at that time was too chaotic. There were so many things that needed evidence. I only had a vague impression that I seemed to have seen a jade pendant in the mud. I also vaguely remember that someone picked it up with tweezers and put it into the evidence bag. I really didn't pay attention to anything else. I … I'm just telling the truth, "the young Xiao Feng said.
Du Yufeng frowned. He was calculating. Since Xiao Feng had only seen it, it was normal for him to have a weak impression. However, the person who took the jade must have a very strong impression. However, when he mentioned this matter just now, no one said that they had an impression of taking a piece of jade. That meant that the person who took the jade took it himself.
Who was it that could take away a piece of jade pendant under the eyes of so many brothers in public? This really made Du Yufeng break his head trying to figure it out.
"Xiao Feng, have you heard of any brothers in the criminal police team who are a little tight on money recently?" Du Yufeng said again, "Think carefully before you say anything."
Xiao Feng scratched his head and thought for a long time. "None of us are rich. We only have that little salary. After deducting the mortgage and food, we don't have much left. Director Du, we don't have much money on hand, but it's impossible for us to have such thoughts. It's not like we're in urgent need of some life-saving money … Uh … "
At this point, Xiao Feng was stunned and his expression changed instantly. Du Yufeng saw that something was wrong with Xiao Feng. "What did you think of?!"
Xiao Feng waved his trembling hand. "Impossible … Director Du, I'm fine. I was just …"
"If you don't give me an explanation, I will really suspect you." Du Yufeng said coldly. He believed that Xiao Feng was not a suspect, but his expression just now was definitely because he remembered who was the most suspicious in the Criminal Police Unit. There was no doubt about this. "Covering up a crime is also a very serious mistake!"
"Director Du, I was just thinking … It really has nothing to do with this." Xiao Feng lied and his ears turned red.
"The earlier you explain, the better for all of us." Du Yufeng patted Xiao Feng's shoulder. "I know. No matter who did this, we all feel the same. We really can't believe that this would happen to one of our own. If you have anything to tell me, don't hide it from me. For anyone who is suspicious, we are not suspecting him, but helping him to clear his name. Otherwise, our faces will always be smeared with black. "
Xiao Feng lowered his head helplessly. "Director Du, I remember half a month ago, I heard Captain Zhang call his family. It seems that his mother has liver cancer. If we want to save her life, she needs a liver transplant. And the liver transplant will probably cost five to six hundred thousand … Moreover, there will be long-term care and all kinds of medicine. I'm afraid it won't be lower than seven to eight hundred thousand. "
Seven to eight hundred thousand? A Criminal Police Captain's annual salary, performance bonuses, and subsidies were only a little more than a hundred thousand. Even if Zhang Yuanjun didn't eat or drink, it would take him five to six years to save up seven to eight hundred thousand. Moreover, Zhang Yuanjun had a child who had just started kindergarten. Kindergarten tuition now was even higher than university tuition. It was easily twenty to thirty thousand yuan a year.
Zhang Yuanjun's wife was an ordinary primary school teacher. Her annual salary would definitely not be left after investing it all on her child. Zhang Yuanjun's salary was enough to support his family and provide for both parents' retirement. Zhang Yuanjun and his wife's parents were farmers in the countryside. They had never gone out in their lives and had not seen much of the world. They really did not have much money.
Although both parents did not want to pressure their children and tried to reduce their expenses as much as possible, the four elderly people would need at least twenty thousand yuan a year. It was easy for people to fall sick when they got older. Most of them had to go to the hospital.
To be honest, Zhang Yuanjun was under a lot of pressure. Although he had always joked that he and his wife could earn close to two hundred thousand yuan a year, he knew very well that he would not have much left after spending it all.
Moreover, Zhang Yuanjun had not paid off his mortgage yet. Therefore, if he were to encounter such a situation, he would definitely cry but have no tears.
At this time, Du Yufeng also thought of something. Zhang Yuanjun had done research on jade. Although he was not an expert, he could roughly estimate the price and distinguish the quality and rarity of jade.
There was once when someone gave Du Yufeng a gift. He directly threw a jade sculpture of a thousand-mile horse. At that time, Du Yufeng refused, but that person did not give up and secretly put it in his office. The next day, Du Yufeng came to the office. Coincidentally, Zhang Yuanjun came to find him for something. After seeing this jade sculpture, he said that it was worth at least four to five hundred thousand yuan.
Sure enough, Du Yufeng was right. Du Yufeng looked at the price tag on the base. This jade sculpture of a thousand-mile horse was 488,888 yuan!
Du Yufeng hurriedly sent someone to send this thing back. He said that if Zhang Yuanjun hadn't seen that it was a good thing, Du Yufeng would have thrown this thing in anger. He was quite opposed to the act of bribing and giving gifts.
"It can't be … Why is it like this …" Du Yufeng's face also changed. Now all signs indicated that the person who took the jade was Zhang Yuanjun. This was Du Yufeng's most trusted person.
Du Yufeng thought about how Zhang Yuanjun stuttered when he first asked him to stay. Du Yufeng became more and more suspicious.
"Call him in," Du Yufeng said with a calm face.
Xiao Feng had an awkward look on his face. "Director Du, is there a misunderstanding? Although this matter is a bit suspicious … But Captain Zhang, he … "
"Go." Du Yufeng said.
Xiao Feng had to lower his head and go out to call Zhang Yuanjun back again. Zhang Yuanjun entered the ward and saw Du Yufeng's gloomy face. He was silent at that moment. Du Yufeng also looked at him without saying a word. He could not believe that the person he trusted would do such a thing.
"Such a big thing happened at home. Why didn't you say anything?" Du Yufeng said faintly, "In fact, as long as you said it, we would have helped you. Why did you do such a thing? How do you want me to help you like this? Yuanjun … you are really confused. "
Zhang Yuanjun shook his head bitterly. "I really didn't want it to be like this. But the pressure is too great … I don't know why I reached my hand out to that piece of jade. I know that piece of jade is very valuable and can solve my urgent problem. My mind is blank, and there's nothing left. "
"You are really confused …" Du Yufeng said, "Do you know that you are throwing away your life?"
Xu Yun, who was in the ward next door, had been listening to the voices here. When he heard Zhang Yuanjun admit it, he finally felt relieved. As long as the jade was found, Xu Yun really did not care about other things. It was better if it was taken by their own people. At least it would not spread to the outside world.
Xu Yun could not sit still anymore. He directly got up and went to Du Yufeng's ward. "I will not pursue anything else. I only want the jade. I will pay for your mother's liver transplant fees. You are not inherently bad. You are just forced by your filial piety. Since ancient times, loyalty and filial piety cannot be combined.
I understand. "Xu Yun's generosity directly touched Du Yufeng and Zhang Yuanjun.
