Original sin

Seeing Huang Meng come in, Li Wenjing asked, "When can I leave?"

Huang Meng glanced at her: "You can go back now, but have you ever thought about what to do if you encounter danger after you go back? You are a smart person, and you should be very clear about the reason why you want to run away."

Li Wenjing bit her lip.

Huang Meng sat down: "As long as you are willing to cooperate with the police, we will consider giving you a lighter sentence. Of course, although we only have the right to make suggestions, the court will generally respect our suggestions. Li Wenjing, this involves several lives, isn't it It's a child's play, think about it for yourself."

Li Wenjing let out a long breath, stood up and walked towards the door.

Huang Meng didn't say anything more, he could feel Li Wenjing's inner struggle at the moment, maybe give her a little time to figure it out.He couldn't understand why such a young girl had to risk her life for the so-called future?

Or maybe there is something in it that I can't imagine.

Huang Meng went to Fu Hong's office after Li Wenjing left.

"She's gone." Huang Meng picked up Fu Hong's cigarette and lit one. Fu Hong asked, "Is everything arranged?"

Huang Meng nodded, and Fu Hong said: "Nothing will happen to her, you must watch this matter yourself."

Huang Meng said: "But I can't be close to him 24 hours a day, even if I want to, she won't be willing. Captain Fu, I have an idea, if we stimulate him, will the effect be better? "

Fu Hong understood what he meant, just like what Shen Shen said, if there is something that can make Li Wenjing truly feel that the other party is going to attack her, then she may not be as calm as she is now. The stimulus likely made her sober and seek police protection.

But doing so is also very risky. Once the incident is revealed, it will definitely affect the reputation of the police. Although Shen Chen also had such an idea at the time, he still insisted on not doing so, because Shen Shen has his own principles, that is, he should not fight for the sake of solving the case. play hard.

But when Huang Meng said it, Fu Hong was really moved at that moment, but after considering the consequences, he finally shook his head and said: "Absolutely not, Mengzi, you have to remember that your thinking like this is very dangerous. Once you open this Then it will be difficult to brake in the future. Shen Da said that when we are fighting criminals, we must tighten one string, that is, we are the police, and we represent the law, so we cannot exceed the rules. Not once, we can’t use everything to solve the case, so what’s the difference between us and those criminals?”

Huang Meng pursed his lips and nodded lightly. He naturally understood the truth, but it was really difficult for Li Wenjing to protect Li Wenjing.

Fu Hong said: "Well, if that doesn't work, you can arrange more people to watch her closely. Didn't you say that you can't protect her personally? When she is at home, you send someone to guard her door, and when she goes to the bar to sing You follow closely, even if she has any opinions, as long as we don't really interfere with her life. You can make excuses for the lack of manpower, and their Second Squadron happens to be short of work at hand."

"Yes." Huang Meng gave Fu Hong a resounding answer.

After Huang Meng left, Fu Hong also left his office. He still had a few things he couldn't understand about this case. He wanted to communicate with Shen Chen. Asked: "What's wrong? Didn't sleep well?"

Shen Chen pointed to the chair opposite: "What's the matter?" While talking, he threw a cigarette to Fu Hong, but Fu Hong took it and didn't light it, saying that he just threw it away.

Shen Shen asked: "Why didn't you see Bureau Tan so early in the morning?"

"Old Tan didn't leave the bureau until after three o'clock last night, so he probably won't come until a little later."

"Where's Wang Gang?"

"Last night when Old Tan left, he took him away with him, saying that his problem was not serious, so there was no need to hold him back, but he was told not to leave Lincheng. What's the matter? Are you looking for Bureau Tan or Wang Gang? ?”

Shen Chen didn't speak, but frowned.

Last night, Tan Ke actually stayed in the bureau until more than three o'clock, and even took Wang Gang away.He also heard that last night Tan Ke brought Wang Gang to the office, and the two closed the door and chatted for nearly two hours. What did they talk about, and where did Tan Ke hide Wang Gang?

"Boss, what's wrong with you?" Fu Hong felt that Shen Shen was a little strange.

Shen Chen came back to his senses and waved his hand: "It's nothing, tell me, what do you want from me?"

Fu Hong talked about Li Wenjing's affairs, and then said: "Tell me, what role does Li Wenjing play in these murder cases? If she is used simply because she wants to be famous and high-ranking, what is she doing now?" She should be very clear about such things, I have contacted her several times, she is a smart girl, why doesn't she choose to cooperate with our police?"

Shen Shen leaned on the back of the chair: "There are two possibilities. One is that she still has a fluke mentality. As you said, no matter whether she was actively or passively involved in these murders, it was for the sake of becoming famous. If she can earn a good future for herself, then she values ​​fame and fortune very much. She is indeed a smart person. Because of this, she clearly knows that once she chooses to cooperate with the police, what will happen to her future? It's over. No matter how hard she makes mistakes, she will never be able to continue on the previous path as before, and there will always be stains. The second possibility is that she dare not, because she These cases may not be what we imagined, but they were just forced to get involved, but she really participated, that is to say, she couldn't get rid of the responsibility, and she knew that even if she was willing to surrender and cooperate with the police, she There is no escape from prison.”

Hearing Shen Chen's analysis, Fu Hong also felt that there was some truth in it. He said: "I always feel that this case is very strange, and it is not as simple as it seems. Originally, I thought this case should be Liu Bai, Xie Changqing, Liang There are some entanglements between Lan and the others, but now it seems that this is not the case."

"Tell me what you think." Shen Chen put Wang Gang's affairs aside, he is like this, once he enters the state of work, he can clearly distinguish what he should do and how to do it.

Fu Hong said: "You know what we thought at the beginning. We thought there were two possibilities for Xie Changqing's death. One was a murder of love, and the other was that someone who had some conflicts with him was venting his anger. At that time, I regarded Liu Bai as the number one. There are two reasons for the suspect. The first is that Xie Changqing has some kind of shady relationship with his ex-wife. Generally speaking, this kind of relationship is unacceptable to any man. From this point of view, Liu Bai definitely committed the crime. Motivation, and there is another reason for suspecting Liu Bai, that is, because Xie Changqing ignored his objection and insisted on participating in the competition for the work "Mu Yun Ting Tao", which he knew imperfectly, for this matter, the two People even pinched Liu Bai in front of many people in the studio, and almost fought. Later, Xie Changqing took back the award, and it seemed that when he was interviewed by reporters, he even deliberately downplayed Liu Bai's contribution to this work, including this At the press conference last time, he didn't get angry with Liu Bai, but according to the results of our investigation, he didn't even notify Liu Bai."

Shen Chen smiled: "It seems that Xie Changqing is really a little too much."

"Yeah, it's more than excessive, you know? That studio doesn't make money. Liu Bai and him jointly funded the studio. According to Liu Bai's thinking, the studio is mainly for creation. The most perfect works can only be produced by unique artistic creations. But Xie Changqing didn’t think so. Xie Changqing used the studio as a platform, and he was more concerned with commercial interests. He also secretly established his own music company, saying that the studio is He did content incubation for his music company, and he transferred some of the music works in the studio to his own music company at a low price, and then used the music company to sell these works at a high price. He himself made a lot of money , but the studio has always been in a state of sluggishness. Liu Bai has suggested several times that Xie Changqing should either quit by himself or him. In short, the two of them have completely different ideas. Liu Bai is very uncomfortable."

Shen Shen nodded, he still knew a little bit about Liu Bai, and it was true as Fu Hong said, Liu Baishu was very business-like, and he didn't seem to be in the world at all.

"Since this is the case, Liu Bai should have withdrawn a long time ago. There is no need for him to give in to Xie Changqing like this. Don't you find it strange?" He asked Fu Hong.

Fu Hong smiled wryly: "We have also conducted an investigation on this point. It is said that it is impossible for two people with completely different ideas to come together, and the studio has lasted for so many years. I only found out later that their brothers and sisters The instigator of this kind of cooperation was their teacher. Because of their teacher, Liu Bai endured it all the time. Of course, although Xie Changqing made money, at the request of the teacher, he had to give Liu Bai a piece of the pie, and When the studio couldn't survive, he took out some funds to inject capital into it. Xie Changqing knew very well in his heart that without Liu Bai, he would not have been able to earn that money. As for Liu Bai, the reason he was able to bear it in the end was because of his heart. It is also clear that the studio carries his dream. By the way, I also heard news that "Muyun Tingtao" is not Liu Bai's real proud work. He has been working on another work behind closed doors. Even Xie Changqing kept it a secret from Xie Changqing, because what he wanted to do was real art. What he made seemed to be an opera called "Elegy of Heavenly Sounds", but I don't know the specifics. It was accidentally revealed by a young man in their studio that Liu Bai has been creating this work for almost four years, and it has actually been completed long ago, but Liu Bai is still not very satisfied with many aspects."

Shen Chen was a little surprised when he heard that, he really didn't expect such a thing to happen.

He said, "Do you think Xie Changqing's death has something to do with this work?"

Fu Hong shook his head: "No way."

Shen Shen said: "Think about it, although Liu Bai is a perfectionist, he has various dissatisfaction with Xie Changqing, and even Xie Changqing has such a relationship with his wife, but this is not something that just happened now, If he really had any intentions, he would have made the move long ago, why did he have to wait until now? Of course, if the murderer is someone else, then let’s talk about it, but right now it’s not just you, even I think Liu Bai is the most suspicious!"

Fu Hong was stunned, he had never thought about this possibility.

But Shen Chen is right. Liu Bai should have known about Xie Changqing and Liu Bai's ex-wife. Before Xie Changqing took "Mu Yun Ting Tao" to participate in the competition, Liu Bai also knew about it. If Liu Bai wants to stop , then it is really unreasonable to wait until Xie Changqing wins the prize in the competition.

Of course, if, as Shen Shen speculated, if Xie Changqing really set his mind on Liu Bai's work "Elegy of Tianyin", which took him four years of hard work and failed to complete, it would be normal for Liu Bai and him to be anxious .

But what does this have to do with Li Wenjing?

And is it worth it for so many people to die one after another for a work of art?

"Yeah, is it worth it? Old Fu, maybe you and I don't think it's worth it, but don't forget, this "Elegy of Tianyin" is no different from Liu Bai's child, a child who is still in its infancy Xie Changqing took away his reputation, interests, and even his wife, and even wanted to take away his children. I think he must have reached the point where he couldn't bear it before he did these drastic things. The old man Fu, I didn't think about it before, but now I think it's really possible."
