Original sin

Chapter 117 Mind, Lies and Face

Not long after Huang Xinfa left, Tan Ke came.

"Why, Lao Huang came to trouble you again?" Tan Ke found that Shen Shen's mood was a bit wrong.

Shen Shen shook his head.

Tan Ke said: "In fact, this old Huang is not a bad person. He has the same virtue as your father. He has a bad temper and admits death. I think that although he came to investigate your father's problem this time, he should be forced to do so. Clear, but I do know that he has an unusual relationship with your father."

Shen Chen smiled wryly: "Tan Ju, I'm fine."

Tan Ke patted him on the shoulder: "It's good that it's okay, don't take it too seriously, what should you do, but don't affect the work." After speaking, Tan Ke took out a cigarette and handed it to him. Shen Chen said: "By the way, how is the investigation of Tang Jianwei's case going?"

"It's still under investigation, and almost all the clues are now broken."

"Didn't Wang Lu make a psychological profile of the suspect? Didn't you cooperate well before?" Tan Ke asked with some doubts.

Shen Shen replied: "It is temporarily impossible to make an accurate profile, because of Xiao Zhenqin's death, we are sure that the murderer is imitating Xiao Zhenqin's murder method. Intentionally or unintentionally, she pointed at Xiao Zhenqin. So she said, she must look again and be cautious."

"Well, but you still have to hurry up. Although this case has not had any impact on the society, it has also attracted the attention of the provincial department. I have made several phone calls."

"Ok."

Tan Ke didn't say anything more, and went back to his office.

Shen Chen's cell phone rang, and it was Xiao Qiushui's call.

"How is it, what's the progress?" Shen Shen asked.

Xiao Qiushui smiled bitterly: "No, we still haven't been able to find the woman in the surveillance. If she hadn't clearly appeared in the video, I really doubt if she really exists. Head, think about it, if she is the murderer , and can easily open the door of Xiao Zhenqin's house, so should she be familiar with Xiao Zhenqin? Whether she opened the door by herself or Xiao Zhenqin helped her, the relationship between her and Xiao Zhenqin should be very close. Yes. We have investigated Xiao Zhenqin’s social relations. Xiao Zhenqin does have a few good female friends, but none of them are close enough to let her give them the key. And we are very concerned about these few close friends of hers. They were all investigated, and none of them had time to commit the crime. They were all able to provide alibi during the time the woman was on surveillance."

Shen Shen was silent for a moment: "Then, you are calling me this time to complain, right?"

Xiao Qiushui coughed lightly: "That's not true, but I was thinking, is there such a possibility, isn't Xiao Zhenqin a returnee? Could this person not be in her current circle of life, but someone she knew before. "

Shen Shen said: "Old Xiao, you have entered into a misunderstanding. First of all, what this person really cares about is not Xiao Zhenqin, but Tang Jianwei. In other words, in terms of intimacy, this person should be closer to Tang Jianwei. So he It may be that she got the key to Xiao Zhenqin's house from Tang Jianwei. Xiao Zhenqin rented there before she got together with Tang Jianwei, and later moved out after living with Tang Jianwei, but the house did not return. Maybe it was in her opinion that the rent was so small. If it wasn't for a few dollars for the house, maybe she also thought that one day she would have a way out if she couldn't live with Tang Jianwei. But after she and Tang Jianwei really got together, it is not ruled out that she will give Tang Jianwei the keys to her house .”

Xiao Qiushui on the phone frowned: "I'm a little puzzled. In fact, the house Xiao Zhenqin lives in is much better than Tang Jianwei's. Why doesn't Xiao Zhenqin let Tang Jianwei move here to live with her? How about moving to live with Tang Jianwei?"

Shen Chen smiled: "It's a matter of face, Tang Jianwei is a man, if he is asked to live with a woman, he will easily repel him psychologically, and even think it is no different from visiting. Don't look at Xiao Zhenqin as a returnee, the more she is like this After returning from studying abroad, she will consider the other party's feelings more in these aspects. It is also because she often considers the other party's feelings that she thinks that the other party will care about her own feelings like her, but she doesn't know that Tang Jianwei is very dull in this regard. Not to mention taking into account other people's feelings, sometimes he doesn't know how to face his own feelings."

"I understand, that means our investigation still has to focus on Tang Jianwei."

"That's right, don't forget, the murderer is avenging Tang Jianwei."

"Well, Tang Jianwei's social relationship is much more complicated than Xiao Zhenqin's. First, he is a landowner, and second, he is not a person who knows how to refuse." Xiao Qiushui hung up the phone after finishing speaking.

Wang Lu hurried into Shen Shen's office: "Do you have time tonight?"

Shen Chen looked at her: "What's the matter?"

Wang Lu said, "I want to treat you to dinner?"

"Going to your house again?" After Shen Shen finished speaking, his head shook like a rattle.

Wang Lu rolled his eyes at him: "Is my family that scary? My family is not a dragon's pool or a tiger's den."

With a bitter face, Shen Shen said, "You should spare me."

"Don't worry, we didn't go to my house. We ate outside. I haven't eaten Western food for a long time. In the evening, we'll 'Urban Saga' together after get off work."

"Are you sure it's just the two of us?" Shen Shen was a little skeptical, if it was just a casual dinner, Wang Lu wouldn't be able to talk about it specifically.

Wang Lu was a little embarrassed: "No, there are also my brother and my sister-in-law. My brother and sister-in-law said that they were busy at home last time, but they couldn't meet you, so this time I will treat you to dinner no matter what. After a meal, I really chose the place."

Shen Chen was a little speechless, but he knew that it was inappropriate to refuse.

He nodded: "OK, what do I need to prepare?"

"Do you have casual clothes in your office?"

"Of course there is."

The criminal police are known as plainclothes policemen, how could there be no plainclothes in the office.

But Shen Chen said again: "However, my casual clothes are all casual, and it's not suitable for me to go to a western restaurant."

"There is nothing wrong with it. The reason why I chose that place is that the western food there is more authentic, and there are not so many rules, and guests will not be required to dress formally. As long as you don't wear a uniform to go in, don't scare the diners there gone."

Wang Lu left after finishing speaking. She had her own business to attend to. Shen Shen heard that Fu Hong had given her some old case files in the past two days, and wanted her to do a psychological profile of the criminals in several unsolved cases. .I hope she can turn decay into magic and help the First Squadron to solve these old cases.

Of course, Shen Shen is not optimistic, because he has read the files of those cases, and the police have too few clues, and it has been so long that some witnesses and witnesses have been lost.

The phone rang, it was an unfamiliar number.

"Which one?"

"Hi Captain Shen, I'm Han Ru."

Shen Chen frowned, how did Han Ru find her mobile phone number.

But he immediately realized that it should have been obtained from Wang Lu. She and Wang Lu had a good chat that night, and they added WeChat and left a phone call.

"Is there a problem?"

Han Ru hesitated for a moment and said, "Captain Shen, I know you have opinions on me, but I still want to explain."

Although Shen Chen felt that Han Ru's explanation was unnecessary, but she was so serious, he felt a little uncomfortable and immediately hung up the phone.

"Go ahead."

"Actually, Chen Yongming and I are not in a boyfriend-girlfriend relationship. It was just a coincidence that we had dinner that day. He was just my client."

Hearing what Han Ru said, Shen Chen felt a little weird.

Han Ru said: "I didn't expect him to introduce me like that at the time, but I couldn't refute it in front of him. After all, I need performance. Team Shen should know that our business is not easy to do, and sometimes it is unavoidable. The one who asked dad to sue grandma, originally I should have invited him to the meal that day, but later met Captain Shen and you, that's why..."

Han Ru didn't finish, but Shen Chen already understood what she wanted to say.

Shen Chen said: "Well, I know about this, have you explained the matter between you and your boyfriend clearly?"

Han Ru smiled bitterly: "We broke up."

"Oh?" Shen Shen showed surprise, but he wasn't surprised at all in his heart. He had seen that man before, and he was not an easy person to get along with at all.

Han Ru said: "If two people can't even achieve the most basic trust, it's meaningless to be tied together, right? But I also know very well in my heart that I often face some problems independently in this job. Male customers, they may even make some rude demands, but I also have my own bottom line, I am not a woman who does not care about anything for the sake of performance, he has been with me for so many years, he should trust me But he didn't, he always suspected that I was doing something wrong to him outside, and it would be easier to separate than to be so noisy every day."

Han Ru's tone was indeed much lighter, and Shen Shen felt that she just wanted to find someone to talk to, and she just happened to encounter the scene where she had an argument with her boyfriend, so she thought of taking the opportunity of explaining to herself to find someone to talk to. Personally pour out the bitter water.

Shen Chen smiled wryly, he accidentally became someone else's trash can.

"Team Shen, thank you for listening to my nagging, I feel much more comfortable when I say it."

Shen Chen smiled: "You know what you want, and you can do what you want. In fact, what people fear most is not knowing what kind of person they should be, and what kind of efforts they should make."

After hanging up Han Ru's call, Shen Shen frowned.

Why did Chen Yongming lie to them, why did he let Han Ru pretend to be his girlfriend?

In fact, whether he has a girlfriend or not is just a trivial matter that cannot be more ordinary. Besides, everyone is not familiar with it. Is it necessary to show face in front of yourself?

It seems that Chen Yongming is really a bit hypocritical.

Wang Lu got into his office again: "Did you finish talking with the beauty?"

She really gave Han Ru Shen Chen's cell phone number.

"Don't tell others my mobile phone number indiscriminately."

"Isn't it just a mobile phone number? There's nothing unusual about it. Besides, Han Ru is still very nice."

Shen Chen looked at Wang Lu: "Did Han Ru tell you that she is not Chen Yongming's girlfriend?"

Wang Lu was stunned: "No, she just said she wanted to ask you for something, and asked me for your mobile phone number, and I gave it to her."

"She said that Chen Yongming was just a client of hers, and the relationship between them was not boyfriend and girlfriend."

Wang Lu said disdainfully: "Men are hypocrites. Isn't he putting money on his face when he says Han Ru is his girlfriend?"

"You really think he's just trying to save face?" Shen Shen asked.

Wang Lu asked back: "Otherwise?"

Shen Chen didn't speak, but he still had doubts in his heart.

I am not familiar with Chen Yongming, so there is no need for him to lose face in front of him.

Isn't he afraid that this matter will go wrong?Lin City is not that big, and many times you can't see it when you look up.

But thinking about it again, if I hadn't seen the scene between Han Ru and her boyfriend that day, I really wouldn't have known that Chen Yongming had asked Han Ru to pretend to be his girlfriend.

Shen Chen shook his head and said with a smile: "Forget it, I don't want to."

Wang Lu said: "He always lies about such trivial matters. I really don't know if he is always full of lies."
