Han Bin had seen the file on Zhu Weichao's murder case. The female victim's name was Lin Qiuyun.
Hou Jiansheng thought about it. "I can't say for sure. If it were me, I wouldn't tell anyone. The temptation of money is too great. "
"Who can testify?"
Hou Jiansheng rubbed his nose and continued, "Actually, I've been worried that he would contact me. He escaped from prison and there are so many policemen watching him. I don't want to have anything to do with him. He doesn't want to live, but I do."
"You really can't touch a gun. It's like a drug. You're addicted to it. It's a devil. In the past, I wouldn't have dared to go against the police. "
Hou Jiansheng recalled. "Forty-something, average height, wore a hat and sunglasses, and had a beard. It's been more than two years. I can't tell what he looked like exactly."
"I drank a little at the time, so I bragged to him. 'You can only earn so little by killing a person. It's so risky. You might as well follow me.'"
Han Bin said, "Continue. As long as you can provide us with valuable clues, we'll give you a chance to reduce your sentence."
"I asked him what the big head was, and he used his right hand to draw a line."
Han Bin asked, "Besides Zhu Weichao, who do you think knows the whereabouts of the money?"
Then the five hundred thousand that Hou Jiansheng mentioned was probably the unknown property that Zhu Weichao mentioned.
Hou Jiansheng licked his lips. "Liu Ao and Yang Xiaowei can testify."
"Let's not talk about fighting. It's a common occurrence. He's stolen things before, but I'm not sure if he's been punished. But if you want to talk about the biggest case, it would be the bathhouse murder case. "
"It's just some accessories. It's not worth much, just enough to buy a gun. To be honest, if not for our good relationship, I wouldn't even want to take his job," Hou Jiansheng said.
Another possibility was that someone paid five hundred thousand to hire Zhu Weichao to kill Lin Qiuyun.
From Han Bin's point of view, there were two possibilities. The first was that Lin Qiuyun's house hid five hundred thousand, and Zhu Weichao stole it after the murder.
Bao Xing snorted. "A life is worth a gun."
"I said, fifty thousand."
Hou Jiansheng nodded. "I think so."
Some people would make small gestures when they lied, and touching their nose was one of them.
"What loot did he give you? How much is it worth? "
"No, in fact, that sum of money has already been spent. Zhu Weichao asked me to buy some other things for him. "
"Full name?"
"He said, 'What do you know? Do you really think I care about the loot? That's just something I did in passing. I hid the real big money a long time ago.'"
Of course, most people touched their noses as a habit.
"Don't lie."
Han Bin changed the question. "Where were you on June 7th from ten o 'clock to two o' clock in the morning?"
"What do you mean?"
"Is there any way to contact Old Cat?"
Han Bin asked, "Do you know where the money is hidden?"
"I do remember that." Hou Jiansheng recalled. "I asked him why. He looked at me sideways."
Han Bin stared at Hou Jiansheng's expression and asked, "Did Zhu Weichao contact you after he escaped from prison?"
"What kind of drinking session took so long?"
Han Bin had been observing Hou Jiansheng and felt that he didn't seem to be lying. After listening to Hou Jiansheng's confession, he had one more suspect in his mind …
Hou Jiansheng hesitated and said, "Actually, the money he earned from killing should be more than that."
"What does this Old Cat look like?"
"What does this Old Cat do?"
Hou Jiansheng shook his head fiercely. "I really don't know. Even if I knew, I wouldn't have helped him escape from prison. I'm not stupid. I'm not clean. If I helped him escape from prison, wouldn't I be digging my own grave? The police won't let me go. "
As for which kind it was, Han Bin had to judge for himself.
Han Bin guessed that the money Zhu Weichao mentioned was from selling stolen goods.
Han Bin said, "Zhu Weichao needed money to surpass the prison chief. He didn't ask you for the money?"
After listening to Hou Jiansheng's explanation, not only did Zhu Weichao not care about the stolen goods, he even used it to buy a gun.
Previously, from Zhu Weian and Mao Yamei, Han Bin knew that Zhu Weichao should have hidden a sum of money. At first, he was skeptical. Later, he heard that Zhu Weichao had a good relationship with Hou Jiansheng and that Hou Jiansheng was a seller.
After Han Bin noted it down, he said, "We will verify it. You know the consequences of lying."
Han Bin asked, "Why did he kill that woman?"
"As far as I know, Old Cat is also a seller, but he's bigger than me. He sells guns and has his own channels of smuggling and selling stolen goods. He's amazing. As long as you can afford it, there's nothing you can't buy, "Hou Jiansheng said.
Hou Jiansheng shook his head. "He's not stupid. Even if we have a good relationship, why would he tell me?"
"This Old Cat isn't from Leiping City. I don't know where he is. If I want to contact him, I can only rely on someone in the underworld." Hou Jiansheng looked troubled. "The news of me being arrested by the police might have already spread. If I ask someone in the underworld to pass the message, forget about finding Old Cat, he'll definitely run as far away as he can."
Han Bin picked up the bag containing the gun and asked, "Did you really buy this gun from Old Cat?"
Han Bin kept staring at him. This was the second time he had touched his nose.
"When you asked me why I sold stolen goods, I said it was to make money."
"Big Quinn and that traitor can testify."
"What thing?"
Either way, it meant that there was more to the case than met the eye.
"It's been a few days. I need to think about it." Hou Jiansheng slapped his forehead. "I think I was drinking with a few friends that day."
"I'm not lying, I'm really not lying," Hou Jiansheng said confidently.
Han Bin concluded, "In other words, he committed the murder that year. Besides the stolen goods, he also got 500,000 dollars."
"I was surprised too. Where did he get so much money? When I asked him again, he refused to tell me."
"Sigh, I just didn't have the heart to get rid of this gun."
"Lao Ga Fish Restaurant and Red Plum Massage Parlor."
"Which restaurant did you go to?"
"No."
The case was classified as a burglary and violent murder case. The stolen goods were only some accessories, which were worth only tens of thousands of dollars. There was no mention of the 500,000 dollars worth of stolen goods in the statement.
"But ever since I got this gun, it's like I'm possessed. I always feel that I'm the most powerful person in the world and I'm not afraid of anything."
Hou Jiansheng licked his lips and opened his mouth, looking like he wanted to say something but stopped.
Han Bin touched his chin. This was interesting.
Han Bin noted down Old Cat. Buying and selling guns was a felony, punishable by death.
"Yes, I'm definitely not lying."
Han Bin continued, "How much do you know about Zhu Weichao's jailbreak?"
"He asked me to buy it before he went in. I just bought it and was about to give it to him when he was arrested. I was also dumbfounded and the gun fell into my hands. Otherwise, I wouldn't have bought it. "Hou Jiansheng sighed.
"I swear to God, I really didn't."
Hou Jiansheng explained, "We're all night owls. It's normal for us to drink until midnight. If we go for a massage, it'll be the second half of the night."
"That gun … Zhu Weichao was the one who asked me to buy it."
"He sneered and asked me to add another zero."
Hou Jiansheng had a lot of problems. Han Bin wrote down a lot of questions in his notebook. "As far as you know, what kind of crimes did Zhu Weichao commit?"
"He smiled and replied, 'Only you can make money, but I'm not allowed to.'"
Han Bin noted it down in his notebook. "When did he ask you to buy it?"
"In the past, when we were drinking together, he mentioned it once. He admitted that he killed the woman. This guy is ruthless and a little perverted. I was a little scared when I heard it." Hou Jiansheng touched his nose.
Han Bin asked, "How much do you know about this case?"
