The director paused and sighed. "Yuecheng, you … sigh!"
The Jiang family had been friends with him for generations, and he had looked up to Jiang Yuecheng since he was young. He really couldn't speak harshly to this nephew like he did to other people.
Just then, Jiang Yuecheng received a call from Zhao Yiyang.
Zhao Yiyang's voice was heavy and low. "Captain Jiang, Li Niancheng is dead. I heard from the prison guards that he had an argument with someone in prison, and when he was fighting, he hit the wall and happened to hit a sharp stone. He died on the spot. "
Jiang Yuecheng: "…"
"Got it," Jiang Yuecheng said in a low voice. He hung up the phone and called out, "Uncle Zhao."
Director Zhao sighed. Jiang Yuecheng would never call him that in the police station, even if it was just the two of them now, because he didn't want to be treated differently at work.
But now that he actually called him that, Director Zhao really couldn't refuse him.
"In the second case in the book, the murderer died in prison. The cause of death was an argument with his cellmate, which led to an accidental death. Just now, Zhao Yiyang called and said that Li Niancheng died in the case we just finished. The cause of death is exactly the same as described in the book. "Jiang Yuecheng took a deep breath and exhaled heavily." Uncle Zhao, isn't this enough to explain it? T City still doesn't know about it. They only treat it as a single case, and they won't think that there's another person behind the murderer. "
"Uncle Zhao, even if you still don't believe me, can you do me a favor?" Jiang Yuecheng put aside his work relationship and said, "If we really think too much in the end, then I'm willing to apologize to T City. But if we're really right, this can prevent more deaths. "
Director Zhao sighed heavily. He couldn't do anything about him. "You!"
Other than Jiang Yuecheng's plea, it was also because of Zhao Yiyang's phone call that Li Niancheng's fate made Director Zhao face up to this matter.
Director Zhao called the director of T City's police station in front of Jiang Yuecheng, but he didn't say anything about "Heart Kill."
Jiang Yuecheng came to him with the book and gave him examples in person, but he still had some reservations. Not to mention that it was just a phone call with the director of T City, so there were many things that he couldn't explain clearly. Furthermore, he had never watched Murder Heart, nor had he come into contact with the previous two cases. No matter how he looked at it, he felt that this speculation was ridiculous.
Therefore, Chief Zhao only said that the third case was related to the two cases they had solved before. Some details of the two cases were very similar to the third case. He hoped that City B could also participate in this case. Of course, City T would be the leader, and City B would not overstep their boundaries.
The other party agreed, and Chief Zhao hung up the phone. "Ok, get ready to go. Leave the work here to the other teams."
"Thank you, Uncle Zhao." Jiang Yuecheng smiled.
"You only act like this when you are begging me." Director Zhao jokingly scolded.
Jiang Yuecheng returned to his office. Although there were no leads on Li Niancheng's side, at least the matter of going to T City was settled.
After going back and telling Wei Muran and the others about this, Wei Muran was also relieved.
Not long after, Zhao Yiyang and Xing Jiadong returned. Their faces were extremely dark, and they felt vexed.
They only found the leads today, and they immediately went over. In the end, Li Niancheng was already dead.
It would have been fine if he had been dead for a long time, but he had just died yesterday. They were just one step late, just one step late. If they had gone over yesterday, would they have been able to save Li Niancheng and find out the name of the psychiatrist from him?
Xing Jiadong slammed the table with all his might in a fit of rage. "Bang!" The people who were not mentally prepared were shocked, but no one said anything to him.
Because of this, the atmosphere in the office was quite low.
"We asked about the situation in detail, and we even found the prisoners who argued with Li Niancheng yesterday. They are old people in the prison, and they have their own small gang, which is equivalent to a small gang in the prison. There are no flaws in their confessions, and they insist that no one instigated them. The prison guards also said that no one has contacted them recently. The most recent contact was two months ago, when the sister of one of the members of the small gang came to visit him. "
"That person joined the gang a year ago. In order to survive in prison, most people will find someone with some power in the prison as a backer. That person is relatively young, 20 years old. He was arrested because he stole the wages that the labor contractor was going to pay to the workers at the construction site, which was a total of 100,000 yuan. Although he is young, he knows a few young people in the underworld. Someone reminded him before he went to prison that it would be best to find a backer as soon as he went in, so he joined the gang. " Zhao Yiyang was still able to control himself. Xing Jiadong was so angry that he could not even speak, so Zhao Yiyang explained patiently.
"Whether it was the time of the newcomer's imprisonment or the time of the latest visit, they were both long before the crime, so we can't find any connection between them," Zhao Yiyang said.
Qi Youxuan tapped his fingers on the table, but he hummed with interest. The rising tone seemed to carry a minor key, and it was surprisingly pleasant to hear, making Wei Muran's heart soften.
She felt numb, and her face was a little red. She could not help but lower her head to look at Qi Youxuan, who was sitting lazily.
Qi Youxuan seemed to have expected her reaction, so he also looked at her proudly. He gently raised his eyebrows, and the corners of his mouth curled up as if he was flirting with her.
Wei Muran blushed and glared at him. The corners of Qi Youxuan's mouth curled up even more, and he even winked at her before asking Zhao Yiyang, "You said that the criminals' answers were flawless?"
Zhao Yiyang nodded, but he did not expect Qi Youxuan to clap his hands happily.
Everyone looked at him suspiciously. Qi Youxuan said, "I'm afraid that they have flaws. If they don't have flaws, it means that there is someone behind them. Someone predicted that the police would investigate and interrogate them, so they prepared an excuse beforehand for them to recite."
"When they answered your questions, did they not stutter?" Qi Youxuan asked with a faint smile.
Xing Jiadong nodded honestly. "Yeah, now that I think about it, their answers were smooth!"
"So they basically recited it beforehand," Qi Youxuan said. "Since Li Niancheng is already dead, everything developed according to the direction in the book. We can't change his death, so we can only use the current conditions to continue the investigation. Now that the development of the matter is more and more consistent with the points in the book, we can temporarily determine that the person behind the scenes is a psychiatrist. "
"A psychiatrist naturally has a good grasp of people's psychology, and to be able to control the three murderers completely according to his own will, it shows that his means are good. Such a person does things flawlessly. If there are really loopholes in the criminals' answers, I will suspect that the psychiatrist took the initiative to reveal the loopholes for us to see. I'm really afraid of being played by him. If there are really loopholes, we will be worried that he deliberately showed it to us, but it will also be contradictory. What if it's true? If it's true, we won't dare to believe it. This kind of truth and falsehood is the most difficult thing to determine. "
"Now that he has given us such a perfect reason, we don't need to guess, and we only need to confirm his identity. Isn't that great? At least one problem is removed, "Qi Youxuan said with a smile.
Xing Jiadong knocked his fist against his palm. "You guys play psychological warfare, your hearts are too dirty!"
Qi Youxuan: "…"
"While asking for my help, you also scold my heart. Is this really good?" Qi Youxuan said darkly.
"…" Xing Jiadong smiled shamelessly. "We need people like you!"
Haha, this black bear is finally enlightened!
…
After a discussion, Jiang Yuecheng decided to let Zhang Ming, Xing Jiadong, and Yang Shaozhan stay behind to follow up on the psychiatrist and the criminals in the prison. The rest of them would go to T City together.
Although Yang Shaoqun wasn't xenophobic, this was an independent case in T City. What was with the people from B City?
In T City, the team was more or less a little emotional.
Fortunately, Qi Youxuan made a call and said that he would also go to T City with the team. Moreover, this matter was indeed a little tricky, and he would explain it to them in detail when they arrived.
Jiang Yuecheng, Zhao Yiyang, Wei Muran, and Qi Youxuan set off early the next morning and arrived at T City at noon.
Yang Shaoqun personally drove over to pick them up. When he saw Jiang Yuecheng and the others, he was still very polite for the sake of Qi Youxuan and Wei Muran.
"It's noon, let's have lunch first. We'll explain the details of the case in the afternoon," Yang Shaoqun said in the car.
"When we have lunch with your team's colleagues at noon, we can also explain the main purpose of our visit here. Don't worry, Captain Yang, we're not here to interfere with your case. It's just that this case is related to the two previous cases we've handled. Although the three cases involve three different murderers, we suspect that these three murderers are also being manipulated by someone behind the scenes. When everyone is here, we'll explain in detail. As for the case in T City this time, we won't interfere too much. It's fine as long as we keep following up on the case. We've taken the liberty of coming here this time, I hope you don't mind, "Jiang Yuecheng said sincerely.
