In other words, if Xu Shenghua had really been caught, it would have been impossible for him to leave the room. Even if he had wings, he would have been pulled down by the staff. That was why Du Minsheng had said that Xu Shenghua really knew how to choose the right time to die!
Song Chaoyang frowned. After thinking for a while, he asked Du Minsheng, "Minsheng, where did you get the news?" Du Minsheng said, "Director Zhou of the Municipal Bureau called me. The scene of the suicide was discovered by the patrol officers of the Gaokai District Public Security Bureau. After they found it, they guessed that Xu Shenghua's death was related to … you. Therefore, they didn't dare to act on their own and immediately notified the Municipal Bureau. After the Municipal Bureau took over the case, they sent people to the scene of the suicide to investigate. Director Zhou called me after he got the news and explained the situation. He also asked about Xu Shenghua's recent situation. "Song Chaoyang widened his eyes and said," It's related to me? The contents of the suicide note are related to me? Didn't you just say that you didn't know the contents of the suicide note? " Du Minsheng nodded and said, "I didn't know the contents of the suicide note, but the front of the suicide note was very clear. It started with 'Respectful Song Shuji'."
When Song Chaoyang heard this, even though he knew that he didn't have to take any responsibility for Xu Shenghua's suicide, he was still hit in the head. His mind went blank and he lost consciousness in an instant.
Li Rui was also shocked and angry. He shouted, "This Xu Shenghua, how could he be so evil? If he died, then he died. If he left a suicide note, then so be it. Why did he start with the Secretary? What did he want to do? Did he want to smear the Secretary's name even if he died? He's really wicked … "
Du Minsheng was calm and said, "I guess he wanted to express his apology to the Secretary in his suicide note, so he started with you."
Song Chaoyang calmed himself down and said, "Xiao Rui, call Bureau Chief Zhou and ask him to send a copy of Xu Shenghua's suicide note over … Forget it, don't send it. Ask him to come here personally. Also, call the officer in charge of this case. I want to know the details of Xu Shenghua's death from him."
Li Rui agreed and went out to call Zhou Yuansong, the director of the Municipal Public Security Bureau. He told him what Song Chaoyang wanted. First, he wanted him to bring a copy of Xu Shenghua's suicide note. Second, he wanted him to bring the person in charge of the case over.
Zhou Yuansong said, "No problem. Please ask the secretary to wait for a while. I'll bring someone over immediately."
Li Rui showed his kindness and said, "There's no need to rush. The secretary doesn't have anything to do in the afternoon. You can take your time and be careful."
Zhou Yuansong and Song Chaoyang were the same. They were both parachutists from the province and were born to be allies. Song Chaoyang also valued him very much and already saw him as a general under his command. Therefore, Li Rui followed suit and took care of Bureau Chief Zhou when he could. Although this kind of care seemed ridiculous, no one dared to deny it. It was also a kind of care. In fact, many leaders wanted to get such care from Li Rui, the first secretary of the Municipal Party Committee, but they couldn't get it.
Zhou Yuansong knew how to be a good person and accepted Li Rui's small favor. He smiled and said, "Xiao Rui is really good. Okay, see you later."
After hanging up, Li Rui went back into the room to reply to the two leaders.
When Song Chaoyang heard that Zhou Yuansong would be here soon, he said to Du Minsheng, "Minsheng, you don't have anything to do in the afternoon, right? Why don't you stay and listen to the meeting later?"
Du Minsheng agreed.
Li Rui said obediently, "Secretary-General, I'll go get your thermos."
Du Minsheng rushed over this time and didn't plan to stay for long, so he didn't bring his thermos. However, if he had to wait for Zhou Yuansong to come over to discuss matters, it would take a long time. He wouldn't feel good if he didn't drink some water. Li Rui had considered this point, which was why he said that.
When Du Minsheng heard this, he sighed and shook his head. He said, "Xiao Rui, you've really done your job as a secretary to the extreme. You even thought of this for me. I'm really impressed."
He and Li Rui were superior and subordinate. They were also uncle and nephew. That was why he dared to say the last sentence. It didn't sound vulgar or boring.
Song Chaoyang also looked at Li Rui with approval and smiled. "Go ahead. You've got a good eye!"
Li Rui smiled at the two leaders and turned to leave. He ran to Du Minsheng's office to get the thermos.
Twenty minutes later, Zhou Yuansong brought the police officer in charge of Xu Shenghua's suicide case to Song Chaoyang's office. Li Rui made tea for the two of them and stayed to listen.
Zhou Yuansong first gave a copy of Xu Shenghua's suicide note to Song Chaoyang. Song Chaoyang glanced at it and saw that there wasn't much content in the suicide note. He passed it to Li Rui and asked him to read it out in front of everyone so that he and Secretary-General Du Minsheng would know the contents of the suicide note.
Li Rui took it and read it out loud. "Respected Song Chaoyang, I sincerely apologize to you. I've let down the Municipal Party Committee and the Municipal Government leaders' trust and favor. I've also let down the support and help from the Municipal Education Bureau leaders. As a Party member, I've done many wrong things. I've made a big mistake that can't be undone. I don't have the face to face you and the other city leaders. I don't have the face to face the teaching staff, teachers, and students of the school. I don't even have the face to live in this world. I can only atone for my sins with my death. Goodbye! Xu Shenghua. "
After he finished reading, his gaze swept over Song Chaoyang, Du Minsheng, and the others. He added, "The date of signature was yesterday." He wanted to ask in his heart if he wanted to die yesterday, but he was afraid to ask such a stupid question in front of so many leaders. It would make him seem childish and ridiculous, so he didn't say it.
He didn't ask this question, but Song Chaoyang had a telepathic connection with him. He asked, "Did he want to commit suicide yesterday?"
If Li Rui asked the same question, he might be laughed at, but if Song Chaoyang asked it, no one dared to say anything. They had to think carefully about whether there was a deeper meaning behind it. This was caused by the difference in their ranks.
Zhou Yuansong said, "Secretary, it's not accurate to say that it was suicide. After our investigation, we found that it was very likely that Xu Shenghua committed suicide."
Song Chaoyang was shocked. He cried out, "Committed suicide? What do you mean? He was killed by someone and then labeled as a suicide? "
Zhou Yuansong nodded. "Yes."
Song Chaoyang looked surprised and pained. He thought for a while and asked puzzledly, "If Xu Shenghua was killed by someone, why did he leave a suicide note?"
Zhou Yuansong smiled bitterly. "If he didn't leave a suicide note, how could people believe that he committed suicide?"
Song Chaoyang asked again, "In other words, the suicide note was written and left by the murderer? But the murderer's handwriting is definitely not the same as Xu Shenghua's. Wasn't he worried that the suicide note would be found to be fake by the police? Oh, by the way, I haven't asked. Was the suicide note you found written by Xu Shenghua himself? "
Zhou Yuansong said, "The suicide note has been confirmed to be Xu Shenghua's handwriting, so it should be written by him. It's not fake, and he definitely didn't write it under pressure. The handwriting on the suicide note is very natural and neat. It's no different from Xu Shenghua's previous handwriting. If he was forced to write it, then the handwriting should be mixed with his personal anger and panic, and it would be out of shape. "
Song Chaoyang and Du Minsheng looked at each other and asked curiously, "Since the suicide note is not fake, and it's written by him, how do you know that he committed suicide?"
Zhou Yuansong said, "Let Chen Kuanrong, the deputy captain of our bureau's criminal investigation team, explain the situation. Captain Chen, please tell the two leaders in detail. "
The person in charge of Xu Shenghua's suicide case was Chen Kuanrong. Chen Kuanrong stood up and said, "Song Shuji, Secretary-General Du, after our detailed investigation and autopsy, we found that the situation was like this …"
Song Chaoyang interrupted, "Sit down and tell us."
Chen Kuanrong thanked him and sat down. He said with a serious face, "During the autopsy, we found that there was an invisible lump at the back of Xu Shenghua's head. There was blood clot inside, which was consistent with closed injury caused by a blunt weapon such as a stick. It was completely different from a natural injury caused by falling into the well. It was also not consistent with the terrain and environment at the bottom of the well. The deceased's expression was calm, which was not the expression of someone who committed suicide by falling into a well. Therefore, we suspect that the deceased was already unconscious before falling into the well.
Song Chaoyang heard this and narrowed his eyes. He had a pained expression on his face, as if he was the one who had fallen to his death instead of Xu Shenghua.
Li Rui was also very upset. Although Xu Shenghua had made a lot of mistakes, there would naturally be laws to deal with him. Being thrown down like this while unconscious and falling to his death, it was really too tragic.
Du Minsheng couldn't help but ask a small question, "How deep is the motor-pumped well?"
Chen Kuanrong turned to look at him and answered, "It's four meters wide and thirty meters deep. It's equivalent to the height of a ten-story building."
Li Rui secretly clicked his tongue. Good lord, thirty meters deep. The depth was almost as high as the height of Eastern Hill Tower. Being thrown down from such a high place, even a nine-life cat wouldn't be able to escape the fate of meeting the King of Hell. He didn't know who did it. Why did they have such a big grudge against Xu Shenghua? Thinking about it again, this also confirmed his previous guess. Xu Shenghua was killed to silence him and didn't commit suicide. There was no need to ask about the murderer. It must be someone who had great interests with Xu Shenghua. It was very likely that it was his superior, or even his superior. If he followed this clue, he would definitely be able to find the murderer.
Chen Kuanrong saw that Song Chaoyang and Du Minsheng had no more questions, so he continued to report, "The deceased died more than twelve hours ago. He should have been killed around midnight last night. The murderer has a certain level of anti-reconnaissance ability and camouflaged the scene of the deceased … "
