Gu Xizhou scrutinized the Liao Shuang carefully. He sensed that the other party was not speaking. "I'll believe you for now."
"It really wasn't me!" The Liao Shuang continued, "Ever since my brother died, I've been wondering if I've offended anyone, but I'm sure I haven't. My brother, however, I think it's possible!"
Gu Xizhou scrutinized the Liao Shuang's expression. "What do you think?"
"Yes, but I'm not sure if it's that person."
"Go on."
"About half a year ago, my brother's company wanted to buy an app developed by a small company. I don't know much about this, but my brother did mention it. He said that the app would definitely be popular if it was promoted slightly. At that time, the small company had less than 30 people, including the owner. The entire company's funds were spent on the app. My brother wasn't the only one with foresight. The owner of the small company also knew the value of the app developed by his company.
"My brother represented his company to buy this small company, but he was rejected by the boss of this small company. My brother was very angry because of this. Later, he, he came up with a sinister move."
"What was it?" Gu Xizhou asked.
The Liao Shuang licked his cracked lips and said, "My brother spent a lot of money to poach the founder of the small company. Then, he made the entire company work overtime to launch the app before the other party …"
Gu Xizhou understood the twists and turns of the story without the Liao Shuang needing to continue. The small company was definitely bankrupt.
"I thought about it, and he was the most likely person to have killed my brother. After my brother's company launched the app, the company declared bankruptcy a few days later.
"That man came looking for my brother, but I swapped identities with my brother. He beat me up, right on the eye. My eye was swollen for a long time. Because of the bruises on my face, I pretended to be my brother all the time. We even worked for each other for five days. I used to knead eggs every day, but it didn't work." The Liao Shuang muttered.
"What's his name?" Gu Xizhou asked.
The Liao Shuang pursed his lips and shook his head. "I'm not sure. I only know that his surname is Yan."
"Okay." Gu Xizhou thought about it. It wasn't a big deal. All he had to do was ask the secretary in Liao Jun's company. Besides, they had poached the founder of the app.
Gu Xizhou asked someone to call them. In less than 20 minutes, he got a name: Yan Lichun.
"Get the technical department to investigate this Yan Lichun first," Gu Xizhou instructed Fang Zhi.
Fang Zhi nodded. "Alright."
. and's........ a month.... because the game is....... it.. because it's a good game. it.... because.... is..... I... is.. is..... killing..... is.. a.. was was was was... was. was... was.......
. Gu Xizhou took the report and looked at it. "Tsk."
. A game was released a month ago. It was announced on the Internet that the sales for that month had reached 1 billion. That might be an exaggeration. But compared to apps, games were more profitable.
Gu Xizhou looked through the transfer records of Yan Lichun's bank. There were a few large transfers. He thought about it and looked down at the time on his phone. There was still an hour and a half before he got off work.
With the thought of dropping by after work, he called Fang Zhi and drove directly to Yan Lichun's company. On the way there, Gu Xizhou felt that he seemed to have overlooked something, but he couldn't think of anything for the time being.
Gu Xizhou drove straight to Yan Lichun's company. When he arrived, he showed his ID. The receptionist was stunned. Then, she immediately called Yan Lichun in his office.
"Boss, these are the two people looking for you."
Yan Lichun was facing his computer. He took some time to say to Gu Xizhou and Fang Zhi, "Officer, please wait for me for two minutes. I need to change something. It will be done soon."
Gu Xizhou sat on the sofa and nodded slightly. He took a sip of mineral water from the paper cup on the table. Fang Zhi was in the same situation. They weren't in a hurry.
"Phew — —"
Yan Lichun heaved a long sigh of relief. He crossed his fingers and stretched. Then, he grabbed the laptop with his hand and got up to walk towards Gu Xizhou and Fang Zhi. With a smile on his face, he said, "Fortunately, you came to look for me today. Normally, I would have left the company by now."
Gu Xizhou sat on the sofa. He raised his chin slightly and asked, "You have something to do today?"
Yan Lichun joked, "I have a meeting. I was just looking at the PowerPoint presentation they sent me. Our company's game received a good response after it was released, so I have a lot of things to do recently. By the way, why are you two looking for me? I've always been a dutiful person. I haven't committed any crimes. "
"Liao Jun. Do you remember this name?" Gu Xizhou asked.
"Him? I remember! I'll remember this name for the rest of my life. "
Hearing this name, Yan Lichun gnashed his teeth. It was as if he wanted to swallow the other person alive.
Gu Xizhou and Fang Zhi saw this and thought, Yan Lichun really hates Liao Jun. His motive for killing him is very clear.
"What kind of shameless thing did he do this time?" Yan Lichun was interested in this.
Gu Xizhou looked at him and said, "He's dead."
"Dead?"
Yan Lichun was stunned when he heard Gu Xizhou's words. He didn't seem to know about Liao Jun's death at all, but then his eyes revealed a trace of joy. "He who is unjust is doomed to destruction!"
"The killer who killed him was very professional. It should be a professional killer. And you have recently transferred large amounts of money …"
Before Gu Xizhou could finish his words, Yan Lichun interrupted him directly, "Half a year ago, my company was facing bankruptcy. At that time, I mortgaged my house, car, and borrowed money from loan sharks. The money was the interest of the loan sharks. I still have our chat records on my phone."
As he spoke, Yan Lichun took out his phone. After unlocking the screen, he directly pushed it in front of Gu Xizhou and Fang Zhi. He said, "I understand now. You police are suspecting me, but I really didn't do it.
"If I'm really bankrupt, I might bring a knife and kill him. However, I'm not bankrupt now. The game earned one billion yuan in the first month it was listed. Although I only have 5% of the company's shares, I still have tens of millions or even hundreds of millions of yuan a year."
Yan Lichun argued and analyzed seriously. As he spoke, he became agitated. His face and neck were red. "I'm telling you, there's no need to kill him. I made so much money, why would I kill him? I don't want to go to jail! "
Gu Xizhou had seen the contents of Yan Lichun's phone. He did talk to a few people about repaying money. Moreover, the date and amount were the same as the transaction records that they had investigated. It didn't seem fake.
Gu Xizhou saw that he was agitated. He clenched his fist and covered his mouth. He coughed and said, "Don't be agitated. It's just a normal interrogation."
"Sigh … I know, I know," Yan Lichun calmed down. "Anyway, I didn't kill anyone. I'm not afraid of your investigation. A straight foot is not afraid of a crooked foot."
At this moment, the phone in Yan Lichun's office rang. He didn't know who was calling. After Yan Lichun picked up the phone, he only said, "Okay, okay, okay. I'll come out right away!"
Gu Xizhou turned around and looked at Yan Lichun. Yan Lichun immediately replied, "It's my company's big boss. I have to go out …"
"Oh."
Gu Xizhou didn't stop him. Yan Lichun was indeed a suspect. However, Gu Xizhou didn't understand a problem. If the person who hired the murderer wanted to kill Liao Jun, then he should have known that the victim wasn't 'Liao Jun', but 'Liao Jun's younger brother,' Liao Shuang '. Why did he wait a few days before going to the Liao Residence to kill him?
Yan Lichun tidied himself up before walking out. Gu Xizhou heard Yan Lichun's voice through the door. "Boss Si, you're finally here!"
"Yeah."
A voice that was neither salty nor indifferent responded with a hum.
Boss Si?
Gu Xizhou and Fang Zhi looked at each other. Could it be the Boss Si they were thinking of?
Gu Xizhou subconsciously turned his head to look at the open door of the office. He saw a blurry figure. Finally, the person took a step forward and he could see the person's face clearly.
The man's handsome features were slightly twisted. When he saw Gu Xizhou, a trace of astonishment flashed through his eyes.
"Why are you here?" A clear voice sounded in the office with slight surprise.
Gu Xizhou met the man's black eyes. Gu Xizhou said, "… I want to ask the same question too."
"Boss Si, do you know each other?" Yan Lichun was also confused. He didn't know what was going on.
"Don't tell me this is also a company you invested in?" Gu Xizhou asked with a frown.
Si Yu nodded slightly. "I told you that I was in a meeting last time. It's here."
"What the …" Gu Xizhou looked at Si Yu strangely and said, "Why do I keep bumping into you wherever I go?"
Si Yu was slightly taken aback when he heard this. He seemed to be seriously considering this question. After a moment, he replied, "Maybe it's because I want to see you."
Gu Xizhou was speechless.
When he saw Gu Xizhou's confused expression, Si Yu glanced at him and laughed. "I'm just kidding."
After a brief chat, Gu Xizhou gestured for Fang Zhi to leave with him.
The two of them got into the car. Fang Zhi supported his chin with one hand. "If it's not this person, who else would want to kill Liao Jun?"
"It might not be Liao Jun!" Gu Xizhou suddenly slapped his head. "Why didn't I figure it out before? It's all Liao Shuang's fault for misleading me! "
Fang Zhi was confused. "If it's not Liao Jun … then Liao Shuang?"
"Maybe we can think of it another way. The person wanted to kill Liao Shuang from the beginning, but ended up killing Liao Jun by mistake. However, at this time, Liao Shuang took his brother's identity. The person who hired the murderer thought that Liao Shuang was dead, so the matter was resolved. However, a few days later, the person who hired the murderer realized that he had killed the wrong person, so the murderer appeared again and wanted to kill Liao Shuang!"
"But … if that's the case, does this mean that someone discovered that Liao Jun was dead before us and not Liao Shuang?" Fang Zhi frowned. "It can't be his parents, right? Other people can't tell the two of them apart! "
"No, there's another person. She might not be able to tell Liao Jun from Liao Shuang, but Liao Shuang has a fatal flaw."
"Flaw?"
Gu Xizhou understood Fang Zhi's confusion. He continued, "Liao Jun's wife is He Yunyun. He Yunyun and Liao Jun are discussing a divorce, so they must discuss the division of the family's assets. However, Liao Shuang didn't know how many assets his brother had. When the assets are divided, there will definitely be a flaw."
