What phone? Zhou Huai stood still for a moment.
Take a look, this is the latest Samsung W series mobile phone. This is a high-end business phone. The market price is about eight to ten thousand. It's more dignified to hold it. It's much better than those who hold Fruit phones. The man took out a phone from his pocket and showed it to Zhou Huai. Very quickly, he hid it back.
You didn't even let me take a closer look. Who knows if your phone is real or fake? Zhou Huai snorted. Most of these people who sold phones at a low price by the roadside would first take out the real phone to show others. During the actual transaction, they would take out a fake model phone to fool others. Usually, the scammers would choose to come out when the sky was dark. Many people bought the phone at a low price, but in the end, they would be scammed. If they recognized the fake phone during the transaction, it was more likely that the scammer would hurt them in a moment of desperation. Therefore, sometimes being scammed was not a big deal. Endangering one's personal safety was what made those who had suffered losses feel regretful.
Of course, there was another situation where these people sold real phones. However, most of these phones were 'stolen goods', obtained through illegal means such as theft.
Zhou Huai didn't know which type the person in front of him was. Seeing that the person was looking at him and looking around vigilantly, Zhou Huai was even more certain of his judgment.
Looking ahead, Chang Shengjun wasn't walking fast. Zhou Huai's gaze fell on the shifty-eyed man in front of him again. Recently, he had been feeling very frustrated. If there was a problem with this person, he could arrest him. Moreover, as a police officer, Zhou Huai couldn't just sit back and do nothing when he saw a suspicious scammer.
Brother, do you want to buy it? It's a ten thousand phone. If you want it, I'll only sell it to you for two thousand. The man looked at Zhou Huai and said again.
You have to let me take a closer look first. If I'm interested, then we can talk about the price. You didn't even let me take a closer look just now. Zhou Huai showed a look of interest.
Alright, I'll let you take a look. Seeing that Zhou Huai was interested, the man's eyes lit up. He stood a little further away from the road. Beside him was the entrance to an alley.
Zhou Huai noticed this detail from the man and followed him a few steps forward. There was a trace of a teasing smile in his eyes. His gaze was like a cat catching a mouse. Zhou Huai took the phone from the man's hand and carefully pressed it a few times. After carefully observing it, he confirmed that it was a real phone. Zhou Huai said calmly, "Bro, this is indeed the latest W series phone. Are you really selling it for two thousand?
Of course, if I don't sell it, do I have nothing better to do? When the man heard that Zhou Huai didn't mind the price, a smile finally appeared on his vigilant face. If you want it, hurry up. There won't be another chance like this. Look at the phone, it's as good as new.
Brother, I do want to buy it, but I'm afraid that your phone isn't safe. Zhou Huai suddenly laughed.
What do you mean by that? The man was startled as he stared at Zhou Huai.
Brother, this mobile phone is so expensive in the market, and you're selling it so cheaply. I don't think you got it through proper channels, right? Zhou Huai smiled and glanced at the man.
Brother, can't I sell my own mobile phone because I'm short of money? Alright, you've seen it. Give me the phone. The man pouted and took the phone from Zhou Huai's hand.
Zhou Huai laughed. This kind of high-end business flip phone, to put it bluntly, was used by some wealthy businessmen to decorate their appearance. Some people bought it as a gift when they needed someone to do something for them. Not many people would buy this kind of phone as it didn't have powerful functions and was expensive. Moreover, flip phones were outdated in many people's eyes. The man in front of him was dressed plainly and wore a pair of old sports shoes. It wasn't that Zhou Huai looked down on him because he didn't look like a rich person, but a rich person who would use such a phone was obviously more high-profile and would definitely care about his appearance. If this man in front of him was said to be one of those low-profile rich people who dressed casually, Zhou Huai really didn't believe it.
Brother, a wise man doesn't beat around the bush. I think this phone of yours is the so-called stolen goods. Zhou Huai chuckled and stared at the man. His body was already tense, ready to prevent the man from escaping.
Tsk. If you want to buy it, just buy it. Why are you so talkative? The man glanced at Zhou Huai. If you want to buy it, then hurry up. My phone is the real deal, and I don't need to worry about not selling it.
As Zhou Huai was talking to the man, Chang Shengjun walked for a while and turned around. He didn't see Zhou Huai and was puzzled. He took a closer look and realized Zhou Huai was talking to someone behind him. Before Chang Shengjun reached him, he shouted, "Little Zhou, what are you doing?"
Zhou Huai turned around and waved his hand. He almost called out the Secretary, but he stopped in time. Because Chang Shengjun was not the Bureau Chief and was only the Secretary of the Bureau's Party Committee, Zhou Huai had to change his words.
You have a companion? The man's pupils shrank. He had stopped Zhou Huai because he saw that Zhou Huai was walking alone. People like them who sold phones from illegal sources were usually unwilling to find people who were walking together. They usually looked for people who were alone. Now that he saw that Zhou Huai had a companion and that Zhou Huai obviously didn't really want to buy the phone, the man said, "I'm not selling the phone." After saying that, he turned around and left.
The man wanted to leave, but Zhou Huai didn't agree. He rushed out like a cheetah and grabbed the man from behind. The man struggled violently and cursed, "What are you doing?" He almost broke free from Zhou Huai's grasp. If Zhou Huai hadn't used the police's grappling hands, he might not have been able to catch the man.
Chang Shengjun was stunned for a second. Chang Shengjun reacted quickly and rushed forward to help Zhou Huai hold the man down. "Little Zhou, what's going on?
Secretary, there's something wrong with this man. " Zhou Huai said and touched the back of his waist subconsciously. When he was not on a mission, he didn't have the handcuffs on him.
The sudden situation made the passersby look around curiously. Zhou Huai said that the police are handling a case, and the curiosity of the passersby disappeared.
Zhou Huai twisted the man to the side and took out the phone from the man's pocket. "Did you get this phone from illegal channels?" he asked.
This is my phone. What are you doing? Even the police can't arrest people randomly. I'm going to sue you. "
The man struggled to raise his head. His face was full of anger, but in Zhou Huai's eyes, he was obviously guilty.
"Little Zhou, did you come here for this?" Chang Shengjun saw that it was for the phone, and he wasn't sure if the man really got it illegally. He didn't know whether he should laugh or cry.
"Secretary, I've been a police officer for a few years, and I've been secretly learning from you for so long. I can't say that my eyes are as sharp as yours, but I have some eyesight." Zhou Huai smiled and said to Chang Shengjun. He didn't forget to flatter the man. This was the art of flattery. Not only would it not make people feel disgusted, but it would also make them feel comfortable.
After Zhou Huai finished talking to Chang Shengjun, he turned his eyes back to the man and sneered. "Whether the phone is yours or not, it's not up to you to decide."
Zhou Huai said and picked up the phone in his hand. When he was looking at the phone just now, he had checked it, but the man was in a hurry to take the phone back. He didn't look carefully at the phone to see if there was any information that could be used to identify it. Now that he opened it again, he found that the address book was empty. There wasn't even a contact number. Zhou Huai smiled. If this phone was for your own use, there shouldn't be no contact number, right? Then how would you contact your friends?
"I'm going to sell it. Of course, I'll delete the number first." The man dodged Zhou Huai's eyes and argued.
Zhou Huai smiled and didn't say anything. From the details and body language of the man, Zhou Huai believed in his own judgment. There was definitely a difference between the body language of a normal person and that of a guilty and nervous person. A person with a guilty conscience, no matter how calm he was, would always show it on the outside. It was just a matter of whether or not he could be discovered. Moreover, even if he couldn't find anything suspicious from the phone, Zhou Huai believed that after a serious interrogation, he would definitely be able to find something.
He scrolled through the phone's menu, but the message section was empty. There were no messages at all. He had only downloaded a few games, and there was nothing else. His finger inadvertently touched the voice recording button. Zhou Huai was about to exit when he saw that there was a voice recording. He didn't think too much about it and casually pressed it.
"Little Jingjing, if things get bad in the future, you can go abroad with me. I won't let you suffer. I'll definitely have a villa and a bungalow, and your life will be rich enough. Are you willing?"
"Mayor, I didn't know you had a lot of money.
Haha, even my wife doesn't know how much money I have. "
A clear voice came from the phone, but because of the noise on the side of the road, sometimes the sound of the phone was drowned out. Zhou Huai couldn't hear it clearly at first, but he roughly heard the word "Mayor." Puzzled, he put the phone to his ear and listened carefully.
Soon, Zhou Huai's expression changed drastically. He handed the phone to Chang Shengjun. "Secretary, listen.
What's wrong? " Chang Shengjun looked at Zhou Huai inquiringly. He didn't notice that the man in his hand was waiting for an opportunity. The moment Zhou Huai handed the phone to Chang Shengjun, the man gathered enough strength to break free and run into the alley.
Zhou Huai was stunned. He shouted, "Stop!" His feet had already flown out, following closely behind the man.
There weren't many people in the alley. It was evening, and the sky was getting dark. The man was obviously very familiar with the terrain. He turned here and there in the alley. Zhou Huai and Chang Shengjun were panting. After chasing for five to six minutes, they didn't know where they were, but the man was nowhere to be seen.
"Secretary … Secretary, you can tell he's a habitual thief. Look at his legs, he runs faster than anyone else." Zhou Huai panted heavily as he looked at the walls on both sides of the alley. They had chased into a dead end, and at the end of the road was also a high wall. Clearly, they were not familiar with the terrain in this winding alley and had long been left behind by the other party.
Looks like you're right. There's really something wrong with this kid. You said he sells phones? Chang Shengjun asked casually. He was panting harder than Zhou Huai. He was in his forties, so he couldn't be compared to a young man like Zhou Huai.
Yes, I was following behind you just now. He stopped me and asked me if I wanted to buy a phone. When I saw him, I thought he looked like one of the street scammers that the police had come up with. Luckily, I didn't make a mistake. Otherwise, I would have to apologize to him for arresting me. " Zhou Huai shook his head and smiled bitterly. It was a pity that the bastard ran away.
What did you want to listen to? Chang Shengjun changed the topic. He was distracted by Zhou Huai's words.
It's this recording. Secretary, listen to it. When Zhou Huai heard Chang Shengjun's words, he quickly handed the phone to Chang Shengjun.
Chang Shengjun took it and turned on the voice recording. At first, Chang Shengjun didn't have any reaction. But soon, his expression became similar to Zhou Huai's … His expression gradually became solemn. After listening to the entire recording, Chang Shengjun held the phone in his hand and looked at it. It seemed that what he heard wasn't real. Chang Shengjun repeated his actions and listened to the recording again.
Secretary, how is it? Zhou Huai looked at Chang Shengjun nervously. In his eyes, the value of this recording was much higher than catching the problematic man.
This recording, if it was real, then it was really … Chang Shengjun didn't finish his words. If the recording was real, then it would really lead to a major corruption case. Chang Shengjun was unsure of the authenticity of the recording, so he began to speak cautiously. The things involved were beyond his imagination.
Secretary, this can't be fake. No matter how you look at it, it can't be fake. Zhou Huai frowned and expressed his opinion. Besides, who would be so bored to deliberately pretend to be the mayor and another woman and make such a conversation?
Can you be sure that the voice in the recording is the mayor's voice? Chang Shengjun shook his head slightly and looked at the dead end. Chang Shengjun suddenly felt a little pity. What a pity. He thought it was just a small shrimp. He didn't expect it to be a big fish. He really shouldn't have let it escape.
Secretary, maybe that person doesn't know the origin of this phone. Zhou Huai said.
Even if he didn't know, he could find some clues with this phone in his hands. Chang Shengjun said calmly. At this moment, he picked up the phone and listened to it again. This was the third time he listened to it. Chang Shengjun hoped to find something from the voice.
Zhou Huai stood aside. This was a serious matter, so it was normal for Chang Shengjun to pay attention to it. He didn't say anything, but waited quietly. He was a little excited. If this recording could lead to a major case, he might be able to make a contribution. Zhou Huai had no reason to be unhappy.
Let's go and buy something to eat in the car. We'll go to find Secretary Chen. After listening to it again, Chang Shengjun put away the phone and walked out.
Seeing this, Zhou Huai hurriedly followed him. He could feel Chang Shengjun's eagerness.
After a while, they came out of the alley again. They bought something to eat for dinner and returned to the parking lot. Zhou Huai started the car and waited for Chang Shengjun's instructions. At this time, Chang Shengjun was calling Chen Xing to ask where he was.
Xiao Zhou, do you know the way to the Old Sichuan Restaurant? After hanging up the phone, Chang Shengjun turned to Zhou Huai and said.
He had never heard of it. Hearing this, Zhou Huai gave a wry smile. But it was easy. He just needed to ask someone on the road.
After getting out of the car and asking someone, Zhou Huai quickly figured out the road. Secretary, I know the way.
Okay, go there as soon as possible. Chang Shengjun nodded.
After talking to Zhou Huai, Chang Shengjun took out his phone and played the recording again. In the recording, the woman called the man "Mayor", but Chang Shengjun had heard Mayor Li Kaishan's voice when he attended a meeting in the city. The man's voice did not sound like Li Kaishan's voice. Chang Shengjun didn't know whether the voice was different because of the recording or he was not familiar with Li Kaishan's voice.
Zhou Huai had never heard Li Kaishan's voice. At the moment, Chang Shengjun couldn't discuss it with the man. He was eager to rush to Chen Xing's place. Whether it was to report this to Chen Xing or to verify whether the voice in the recording was Li Kaishan's, Chang Shengjun didn't want to waste a second.
In the private room of Old Sichuan Cuisine, Chen Xing was eating with Lin Siyu. Together with Huang Jianghua and Li Yong, the four of them ate and chatted. The atmosphere was not bad. This was the first time that Lin Siyu had met Chen Xing in private. She felt the different working side of him. Seeing that Huang Jianghua and Li Yong dared to joke in front of Chen Xing, Lin Siyu became more and more curious about Chen Xing. In her eyes, the superior Secretary of the Municipal Party Committee didn't put on any airs in front of his subordinates.
Lin Siyu ate like a lady. From time to time, Qian Xinlai's face flashed in her mind. That face was like a devil driving her around with a whip.
Glancing at Huang Jianghua and Li Yong, Lin Siyu sighed in her heart. She knew that there was no chance for her to be alone with Chen Xing tonight. Just now, Chen Xing had received a phone call. Obviously, he had something to do. If she took the opportunity to ask Chen Xing out after dinner, it would definitely not work. However, she did not know when she would be able to ask Chen Xing out again. Qian Xinlai kept emphasizing that it would take a month. Lin Siyu was anxious, agitated, and uneasy. She had to take the initiative to create opportunities.
Lin Siyu, whose mind was in a mess, felt that time passed very quickly. She felt that she had not sat for long when someone knocked on the door of the private room. It was a strange man who pushed the door open. There was another person following behind him. Lin Siyu did not recognize either of them. She thought that the other person might be the one who had called Chen Xing.
"Sheng Jun is here. Have you had dinner yet? Sit down and eat together." Chen Xing smiled and waved at Chang Shengjun.
"Secretary Chen, I have something urgent to talk to you about." Chang Shengjun glanced at the private room. It was an important matter. He only wanted to talk to Chen Xing alone. Moreover, in addition to Chen Xing's driver and secretary, there was also a woman he did not know in the private room.
Chen Xing looked at Chang Shengjun in confusion. Just now on the phone, he heard that Chang Shengjun's voice was a little strange, so he did not pay much attention to it. Now that he saw Chang Shengjun's behavior, Chen Xing stood up and said to Huang Jianghua and Li Yong with a smile, "You two and Xiao Lin eat first. I will pay for dinner tonight. I have ordered the dishes. Don't waste them, or I will feel sorry for the money."
Chen Xing joked and then walked out of the private room with Chang Shengjun. There was no one in the corridor. Chang Shengjun walked directly to the end of the corridor. Then he took out his phone and handed it to Chen Xing. "Secretary Chen, there is a recording in it. Please listen to it."
"What recording?" Chen Xing looked at Chang Shengjun strangely.
"Secretary Chen, you will know after listening to it." Chang Shengjun looked serious.
Seeing this, Chen Xing nodded. "Since Chang Shengjun came here in such a hurry, he would not put on such an attitude for such a small matter."
He picked up the phone and listened to the recording. After hearing the first sentence, Chen Xing's attention was attracted, and his face gradually became serious.
"Little Jingjing, if the situation is bad in the future, you can go abroad with me. I won't let you suffer. I will definitely have a villa and a house, and you will live a good life. Are you willing?"
"Mayor, I didn't know that you are rich."
"Haha, even my wife doesn't know how much money I have."
"Mayor, how much money do you have?"
"Make a guess."
"Ten million?
"Ten million?" "Can I buy a villa abroad with ten million and enjoy the rest of my life?"
"Little Jingjing, you have underestimated me."
"It can't be a hundred million, can it?"
The voice stopped abruptly, but only for a short while. Soon, it was heard again. After listening for a while, Chen Xing's expression was indescribably strange. If he guessed correctly, this was a conversation between a man and a woman when they were doing it. The following parts were all flirting words, and some of them were really unpleasant to the ears. In order to make sure that there was nothing else worth paying attention to, Chen Xing continued to listen patiently. After listening to the recording, Chen Xing put down the phone. The strange expression on his face only lasted for a short while. At this moment, Chen Xing's face was more dignified and serious.
"Where did this phone come from?" Chen Xing looked at Chang Shengjun.
"Little Zhou and I found a suspicious man selling a mobile phone on the street at night. Little Zhou suspected that he might be a scammer, so she tried to sound him out …" Chang Shengjun glanced at Zhou Huai and roughly told him what had happened. The point was not how he got the phone, but the recording in the phone. Chang Shengjun did not waste his time to describe the details.
"Did you catch the man who sold the mobile phone?" Asked Chen Xing.
"No. At that time, Little Zhou gave me the phone and told me that there was a recording for me to listen to. I was distracted, and then the guy ran away." Chang Shengjun smiled helplessly. It would be better if he could catch the guy.
Hearing that, Chen Xing nodded and did not ask further.
Picking up the phone, Chen Xing listened to the important parts of the recording again and glanced at Chang Shengjun. "Shengjun, what do you think?"
"That voice, I don't think it's Mayor Li's voice, but the woman called him mayor. I'm a little confused about it." Chang Shengjun said his opinion, but it might be a deputy mayor of the city. The woman just omitted the word 'deputy'. "
"You're right. The voice doesn't sound like Li Kaishan's. To me, it sounds more like Zhang Lixing's." Chen Xing frowned. "As for the woman, she might be the director of the Municipal Government Office, Liang Jing."
"That woman is Director Liang?" Chang Shengjun was slightly stunned. His attention was actually more focused on the man's voice, and he did not pay much attention to the woman. Hearing what Chen Xing said, Chang Shengjun was quite shocked. "Zhang Lixing and Liang Jing …" Chang Shengjun recalled the scene when this conversation took place. At this time, he really did not know what to say, and his expression was strange.
The crux of the matter now was that this recording had to be 100% authentic. Chen Xing said in a low voice. He, who was holding the phone, actually believed that this recording was not fake. Ordinary people would deliberately imitate the voices of Zhang Lixing and Liang Jing and make such a recording. And if someone really wanted to frame them, after making the recording, it should be sent to the discipline inspection department. How could it be stored on such a phone, and then the phone happened to be stolen, and finally fell into the hands of Chang Shengjun. Such a dramatic scene, Chen Xing did not believe that it was arranged by someone.
Secretary Chen, I'm afraid that the recording on this phone can't be verified. " Hearing Chen Xing's words, Chang Shengjun shook his head and said. If it was a recording, it could be found through technical means whether it was synthesized or not. But this recording was on a phone, and it was really impossible to verify its authenticity. If they really wanted to check, they could only check whether the voice was the same as the voice of a real person, but there would be some subjectivity in this.
As Chang Shengjun said this, he shrugged his shoulders. If there was a subjective judgment, it would be difficult to use it as evidence.
Listening to Chang Shengjun's words, Chen Xing was also lost in thought. If there was no technical means to verify its authenticity, then this recording more or less lacked a certain degree of credibility.
