Through this incident, the couple's character could be seen.
Han Bin didn't completely believe Cao Linyue's words, so he interrogated Li Weiyi again.
Li Weiyi and Cao Linyue's statements were basically the same. The couple didn't know much about the man who saved them, so it could be said that they were deliberately avoiding it.
The couple first took their daughter away from the scene of the rescue and then moved from Gao City to Qingdao City. To put it nicely, they were afraid that their daughter would remember what happened, but to put it bluntly, they were afraid that the family of the man who saved them would get involved.
At six o 'clock in the evening, the team members returned to the office. Han Bin lit a cigarette and said to everyone, "Everyone take a break. We'll have a small meeting in five minutes."
Some of them stretched, some poured water, and some lit a cigarette like Han Bin.
After everyone cleaned up, they sat around Han Bin.
Han Bin looked at Wang Xiao, "How's the investigation going?"
"We went to Chen Lianhai's father-in-law's house. His father-in-law, mother-in-law, and brother-in-law can all provide alibis. We also checked the neighborhood's surveillance cameras. Chen Lianhai arrived at seven o 'clock in the evening and left his father-in-law's house the next morning."
"I think Chen Lianhai can be ruled out as a suspect."
"Qianqian, Chen Lianhai and Li Weiyi can be released from detention tomorrow."
"Yes."
In the afternoon, Wang Xiao and Bao Xing went out to investigate, so they didn't know much about the interrogation, so Han Bin gave them a brief introduction.
After learning what Li Weiyi and his wife did, Bao Xing snorted, "This couple is really disgusting. How could they do such a thing."
Wang Xiao couldn't help but sigh, "They were kind enough to save their daughter, but they treated them like a god of plague. The family of the man who saved them must be so sad. If it were me, I would definitely vomit to death."
Bao Xing said, "Not only that, I think they might even want to kill someone."
Han Bin took over the conversation, "Bao Xing is right. I'm also wondering if Li Yuan's death is related to what happened that year."
"The case happened by the river and Li Yuan died by the pool. Was it a coincidence or was it intentional?"
Li Qin said, "Although he had the motive, so many years have passed. If he wanted revenge, why didn't he do it earlier?"
Han Bin thought for a moment. "We know too little about what happened back then. We don't know the situation of the Good Samaritan, and we don't know anything about his family. It's hard to make an accurate judgment."
"Tomorrow, Sister Li, Bao Xing, come with me to Gao City to investigate what happened back then. Wang Xiao and Jiang Yang stayed behind to check the surveillance. Qianqian, check our internal system to see if there are any records of this incident. "
"Yes."
…
Seven o'clock in the evening.
In a private room on the second floor of the Four Seasons Restaurant.
Han Bin and Huang Qianqian sat on the tatami. There was a charcoal stove on the table in front of them and a few plates of food beside it.
There was beef diaphragm meat, pork belly, mutton, intestines, chicken skewers, eggplant, shiitake mushrooms, chili peppers, and a plate of lettuce.
"Sizzle …" The sound of barbecued meat entered their ears, making them involuntarily swallow their saliva.
At noon, Han Bin casually ate two mouthfuls, and now he was already hungry.
Barbecuing meat by himself was also a rare pleasure, and it tasted exceptionally delicious.
Huang Qianqian swallowed her saliva. "Team Leader, let's barbecue the pork belly first. I watched a Korean drama last night, and the male lead ate the pork belly wrapped in lettuce with great relish."
Han Bin smiled. "When Koreans are in China, everything tastes good."
"Team Leader, this is discrimination."
Han Bin shrugged. "I'm telling the truth."
Huang Qianqian pouted to express her dissatisfaction and support for the South Korean oppa.
"Qianqian, it's not good to watch too many South Korean idol dramas," Han Bin said.
"What's not good about it? I think my values are quite upright."
"Car accident, cancer, and amnesia. No matter which South Korean idol drama it is, one of the three must be involved." Han Bin smiled and added, "It's only limited to idol dramas. South Korean movies and family dramas are quite good."
Huang Qianqian said helplessly, "What else can I watch if I don't watch South Korean dramas? The domestic dramas are even more melodramatic. I don't even want to talk about it. They're still copying South Korean plots, but they're not good enough."
Han Bin was stunned for a moment. He really couldn't refute that, so he changed the topic. "It's almost done. Call your cousin and ask her to come up."
Huang Qianqian rang Wang Ting's phone and continued, "Team Leader, are you going to Gaocheng tomorrow?"
"Yes, why?"
"Can you take me with you?"
"You're in the office, not in the field. What are you going to do?"
"I'm tired of staying in the office all the time. Moreover, I can't be in the office all the time. I want to learn from you guys."
Han Bin smiled. "You want to be in the field?"
"If Sister Li can be in the field, why can't I?"
Han Bin shook his head. "Being in the field is too tiring. I don't suggest you switch to the field."
"Team Leader, you only see that being in the field is tiring. Sitting in the office is also very tiring. It's all tedious work, and there's no sense of achievement."
Han Bin said seriously, "How can there be no sense of achievement? Being in the office is as important as being in the field. Our team was able to solve the case, and we can't do it without your credit."
"Team Leader, do you really think so?"
"Of course." Han Bin responded and comforted her, "Just do it honestly. When we're too busy and there's a chance to go out, and it's not dangerous, I'll consider taking you out to carry out missions."
Huang Qianqian revealed a look of joy. "Really."
Creak … The sliding door opened from the outside, and Wang Ting walked in with a wooden plate. There were three bowls of rice on the plate.
"What do you mean really?"
Huang Qianqian chuckled. "We're talking about work. I asked my cousin-in-law to take me out to the field."
Wang Ting blushed and glared at Huang Qianqian. "What are you yelling for?"
Seeing that Huang Qianqian was so sensible, Han Bin smiled. "Qianqian, I'm going to Gaocheng tomorrow. The cherries there are delicious. I'll buy a box of them for you and your cousin."
Huang Qianqian grinned. "Thank you, brother-in-law."
Wang Ting rolled her eyes. She couldn't be bothered with the two.
Han Bin picked up a piece of beef and put it on Wang Ting's plate. "Try my cooking."
Wang Ting snorted. "What do you mean by your cooking? I marinated the beef myself."
Han Bin said, "Then I'll have to eat a few more pieces."
"You're the main force." Wang Ting gave some rice to Han Bin. She couldn't eat much at night.
Huang Qianqian looked at the two with a resentful gaze and complained, "Cousin, don't be so lovey-dovey. I'm embarrassed to eat."
Wang Ting looked at Huang Qianqian with a scrutinizing gaze. "You should eat less. Don't you realize that you've gained weight recently?"
"I've gained weight!" Huang Qianqian's eyes widened. She examined herself and looked at Han Bin, the third party. "Team Leader, have I gained weight recently?"
Han Bin looked at the two women. He didn't want to offend either of them. He didn't dare to talk about being fat. It was too dangerous.
"Sigh, the meat is burnt."
Han Bin picked up a piece of meat and put it into his mouth.
…
Gaocheng.
According to Li Weiyi's confession, Li Yuan fell into the water near the Moon River and Xing North Road.
Han Bin, Li Qin, and Bao Xing drove directly to the Xing North Road Police Station.
The person in charge of receiving Han Bin and the others was the deputy director of the police station, Wang Shaoneng.
Wang Shaoneng looked to be in his forties. He wasn't tall and was very experienced in dealing with people. He invited Han Bin and the others into the meeting room.
"Team Leader Han, if you have any instructions for coming to Gaocheng, our Xing North Road Police Station will definitely cooperate."
"Director Wang, you're too kind. We don't dare to give any instructions. We just want to understand some things."
"Go ahead." Wang Shaoneng took out a pack of cigarettes and handed one to Han Bin.
Han Bin lit the cigarette for the other party first, then lit his own cigarette and briefly explained the situation.
After listening, Wang Shaoneng took a puff, "Which year was it exactly?"
"It should be the summer of 2008. One of the female students who fell into the water was called Li Yuan."
"Year 2008." Wang Shaoneng muttered and recalled, "I do have an impression of what you're talking about. At that time, I had just been transferred to the Xing North Road Police Station to be the police chief. I was the one who brought people to the scene. The young man was also rescued by us."
"Logically speaking, it's not the police's responsibility to salvage the body, but that young man drowned while trying to save someone. If we don't do anything about it, we won't be able to bear it. So, I called two courageous auxiliary police officers and got him up. He couldn't do it anymore."
"At that time, the young man had a companion. The two of them saved two students who were nearby. After the parents of the rescued students rushed to the scene, they made a simple statement. Then, I turned around and disappeared. "
"Later, the family of the drowned young man came. His parents cried miserably. They hugged the young man's body and refused to let go. A few relatives couldn't stop them."
"At that time, this incident was quite sensational in Gao City. Logically speaking, the young man's behavior was commendable and should be learned from. However, the key to this incident was the parents of the rescued students. They disappeared the moment they turned around. They couldn't even offer their condolences to the young man's family. Our police station also looked for them. They didn't pick up the phone, didn't open the door, and didn't communicate with them. Later, one of the families even moved away. "
"This incident had a very bad impact. It caused the atmosphere of the entire county (county-level city) to deteriorate. Fortunately, the internet wasn't developed at that time. Otherwise, this incident wouldn't have been tolerated."
"Director Wang, do you still remember the name of the young man who acted bravely?"
"I can't remember. It's been too long. It's just that this incident left a deep impression on people. Otherwise, I would've forgotten about it after so long. However, you can check the case file. It's all recorded. "
"Then I'll have to trouble you."
"You're welcome." Wang Shaoneng stood up and said, "You guys take a seat. I'll go look for the relevant case file."
A deputy director of a police station had handled at least eight hundred cases, big or small, in more than ten years. For him to remember it so clearly showed how ruthless Li Yuan's parents were.
Li Qin said, "Team Leader, from what Director Wang said just now, the young man who acted bravely had a companion. Maybe he knows more about the whole incident."
Han Bin nodded. From the current situation, the rescued students were avoiding the incident. Even if they found another student, they might not be able to understand the real situation. Another Good Samaritan was a better choice.
Bao Xing chuckled. "Team Leader, didn't you say that Qianqian wants to eat cherries? When are we going to buy them? "
Li Qin laughed. "Why are you in such a hurry? We'll buy them on the way back. Don't you see that there are many cherry trees on both sides of the road? There are no middlemen to earn the difference in price. Not only are they good and cheap, but they're also fresh. "
Bao Xing rolled his eyes. "Oh yeah, Team Leader, how did you know that Qianqian likes to eat cherries?"
Han Bin glanced at him. How could he not know what he was thinking? He said lightly, "I heard it from her cousin when we went to eat at Four Seasons Restaurant yesterday."
Han Bin's simple words revealed a lot of information.
Bao Xing smiled and didn't ask anymore.
If he still couldn't figure it out, he could quit being a police officer.
After a while, Wang Shaoneng walked in with a brown paper bag. "Team Leader Han, I brought the case file. Because it was an accidental death, there wasn't much information at the time. I only recorded some basic information about the people involved. If there's anything you want to know, you can ask me directly."
"Thank you." Han Bin wanted to know the basic information about the people involved.
The case was classified as an accident.
The cause of the accident was very simple. Two primary school students were playing by the river and accidentally fell into the water. A young man and woman rescued the two primary school students, but unfortunately, the man was too weak and drowned.
The two students who were rescued were called Li Yuan and Jiang Han. They were both students of Grade 5 Class 2 of Experimental Primary School.
The two Good Samaritans were called Chen Shaoyan and Hong Xin.
Chen Shaoyan was the deceased.
After Han Bin finished reading the file, he had a general impression of it.
"Superintendent Wang, the other Good Samaritan, Hong Xin, what's her relationship with the deceased Chen Shaoyan?"
Wang Shaoneng recalled for a moment. "Oh, I remember they were friends. Hong Xin left her contact information. You can call her and ask."
Han Bin nodded. He definitely had to ask, but twelve years had passed. No one could be sure if Hong Xin had changed her phone number.
From the current situation, Chen Shaoyan and Li Yuan were already dead. If he wanted to know what happened that year, he could only look for Jiang Han and Hong Xin.
Jiang Han was only eleven years old at that time. The phone he left was his family's landline, so it was very likely that it had stopped working. Jiang Han's address was available, but Han Bin wasn't a Gaocheng local, so he didn't know the specific location.
"Superintendent Wang, is Jiang Han's house far from here?"
Superintendent Wang glanced at it. "It's not far. I'll get someone to check it out first. As long as he hasn't moved away, we'll definitely be able to find him."
"Thank you."
"Don't mention it. We're family."
Wang Shaoneng left the conference room as he spoke.
Li Qin smiled. "This Superintendent Wang is a smart person."
Other than Jiang Han, Hong Xin was also in the know. She didn't leave a specific address, but left her phone number.
Han Bin took out his phone and dialed her number. "Du du …"
After a few rings, the phone was connected and a woman's voice came through.
"Hello, who is this?"
