Talk About The Case

Leng Yu and Huang Lin arrived in Country M on a private plane in the police force. It took nearly six hours to fly from Yangshi to Country M, and it was already around eleven o'clock in the morning.

They were greeted by the Royal Police of Country M, and everyone came to K City, the capital of Country M.

Since country M is a tropical country, Leng Yu and others dress lightly, making it more convenient to move around.

K City is very lively, with high-rise buildings everywhere, and the streets are full of vehicles and some traffic jams. Due to the hot weather, Leng Yu was sweating, but the icy air he carried made K city police officers afraid to talk to her.

Country M belongs to a Southeast Asian country, and most of the people in that country cannot speak Chinese, so Leng Yu used English throughout the conversation with them.

Only when police officers in country M communicate in private, they use their own language.

Not long after, they were taken to the headquarters of the National Police Department M, where they met with the police officer Hezmi who was in charge of the disappearance. After everyone exchanged a few words, they immediately entered the topic.

"Officer He, I think you have also heard about Xu Linglong's disappearance. His body was found in our country and it had been burnt. When we found him, the time of death was about two to three weeks. "Leng Yu said.

Then, Huang Lin took out the photo taken at the scene from her bag, pushed it in front of him, and said: "This is the photo we took. Ninety-five percent of her body has been burned by the fire."

Hezmi looked at the photos carefully, frowning and said: "It's all burned like this, you can't see it at all."

Leng Yu said: "Yes, it took us some time to verify the identity of the deceased, that is, Mr. Xu Linglong who was exploded and disappeared before Christmas."

Hezmi nodded and said, "Well, when we received the news that Xu Linglong was missing, it was two days before Christmas, that is, on the 23rd. The reporter was Xu Linglong’s wife Alice. She said that her husband had already They promised to return home to celebrate Christmas with their family, but they waited for a long time before their husband came back, so after 24 hours, they reported missing to us."

"It is said that they even called Xu Linglong one day earlier after agreeing to come back, but they have not been able to reach him. Alice also said that her husband has been busy with business and meetings, so if there is nothing important, she would not contact him deliberately. So, since there was no way to contact her husband earlier, we simply waited at home for him to come back. Didn’t know that we waited and waited, but still could not wait for her husband. They even contacted Xu Linglong’s assistant and so on, but none of them were able to communicate with him. He got in touch."

Leng Yu asked, "Did Alice say when was the last time I spoke with Xu Linglong?"

Hezmi said: "Yes, she said that the last time she talked with her husband was on the evening of Thursday, December 20th. At that time, Xu Linglong was still in your country, and the call time was about 11 to 12 o'clock in the evening. It is said that Xu Linglong told Alice that he was alone that night, because there was nothing important, so he asked the assistant who followed him to come back to Country M first, and he would arrange for another subordinate to take him to the airport later. "

Leng Yu's heart jumped suddenly and asked, "Did Alice mention the name of this subordinate?"

Hezmi shook her head and said: "We asked her too. She said she didn't know, and she didn't ask exactly who this subordinate is."

Could it be him?

He said that he had only returned to Longshi a few days ago.

Does he mean that he has been back in China for some time, and he only returned to the Dragon City a few days before Christmas? If he was already in China, why not come back to Longshi directly? Could it be that he was really with Xu Linglong at the time?

And where will they be in the country during that time?

Leng Yu thought to himself.

She was silent for a few seconds. Hezmi was so sensitive. He smelled something wrong and asked, "Did Officer Leng find something?"

Leng Yu nodded and said, "Yes, I met a friend before Christmas, and his relationship with Xu Linglong seems to be very close."

Huang Lin took out the photo, handed it to Hezmi, and said, "The one on the right is him."

Hezmi glanced at the photo, raised his eyes to Leng Yu, with some doubts in his eyes.

Upon seeing this, Leng Yu said, "His name is Mr. Ding Zhenghongding. When I saw him, he said that he had only returned to my former residence a few days before Christmas, which is called Longshi. But, police officer He just now Said that Alice mentioned that Xu Linglong would let another of her subordinates take him to the airport and return to Country M. Then I think this subordinate is probably Mr. Ding."

She paused, and continued: "Because when Mr. Ding came back to Longshi, he happened to meet the day when Xu Linglong returned to China. If there is a difference, there will only be one or two days. Therefore, the two of them returned to Country M and returned. The days in Longshi are very close. I guess Mr. Ding sent Xu Linglong to the airport and then came back to Longshi by the way. No matter which area they were in, as long as they were still in China, it would not take too much time to fly to and from all corners of our country. Moreover, it was close to Christmas, and taking a flight back to Longshi was the best and fastest option."

"Later, I will ask someone to check Mr. Ding’s flight records. Then I thought, if Mr. Ding had been with Xu Linglong at the time, then maybe he would have returned to our country as early as mid-December. Just, if Mr. Ding really sent Xu Linglong to the airport, so Xu Linglong would not disappear. But why did Xu Linglong not return to Country M? This is a myth that I have never guessed. Therefore, I have a great deal of Mr. Ding. Suspect, he is one of the key figures in the whole case, even on my list of suspects."

"By the way, speaking of this, we also found Xu Linglong's flight record. He flew to our country on December 13th, which is the middle of the month. If the subordinate Alice said was really Mr. Ding, then this During this period, Mr. Ding and Xu Linglong had close contacts."

Hezmi quietly listened to Leng Yu's analysis, and then said: "Well, we also asked Xu Linglong's wife and his assistant. Xu Linglong did indeed arrive in your country on that day."

Leng Yu said, "It's just that I still have a question. What is the relationship between Mr. Ding and Xu Linglong? Is it a partner or the relationship between the lower-level employees and the boss? Officer He, have you obtained all the employees in Xu Linglong's company? List? If you have one, can you let me go through it?"

Hezmi opened the drawer under his desk, took out a file bag, and then pulled out a piece of information, saying, "This is the list of employees in Xu Linglong's company."

Leng Yu took it and looked at it carefully.

Suddenly, her eyes lit up and saw Ding Zhenghong's name appear on the list. It's just that this is country M, and Chinese is not the national language of that country, so Ding Zhenghong in the list is written in English pinyin.

Leng Yu looked at Ding Zhenghong's professional position and saw that he was the company's sales manager specializing in running business for Xu Linglong. If this is the case, it is no wonder that he often follows Xu Linglong's side.

Usually these business people have a very good relationship with their bosses, and only this kind of people who often run outside knows where there are famous nightclubs.

Talking about business at the wine table has always been the culture of many countries, especially Asia. Therefore, in addition to the relationship between the superior and the subordinate, the two are still friends of wine and meat.

However, what deal did they negotiate when they came to China?

Leng Yu once checked the background of Xu Linglong and saw that he did not have any completed business and plans in China. Maybe he hasn't negotiated the deal yet, so he hasn't announced it yet?

"Officer He, Ding Zhenghong's name happens to be here."

Leng Yu pointed to the names on the list and said to Hezmi.

"Well, that's clear. But, has Officer Leng found out the whereabouts of Mr. Ding?" Hezmi asked.

"Not yet, but we have asked various local police officers in the country to strictly investigate the whereabouts of this person, including the customs, and they have also ordered that if they meet Mr. Ding, they will be strictly investigated and detained." Leng Yu said.

Hezmi nodded in agreement, and he immediately said: "By the way, we also questioned Xu Linglong's wife and his housekeeper, including his two children."

He glanced at Leng Yu and continued: "Alice is a native of Country M, and she does not speak Chinese. Xu Linglong and her mostly communicate in Mandarin."

Leng Yu asked: "Mandarin? Isn't it English?"

Hezmi smiled and said, "No. But all foreigners who come to Country M have lived here for a long time and have learned their native language. Although they are not very fluent, they basically have no problems with communication. Since Xu Linglong Married a local aboriginal, I would like to learn Mandarin very well. However, Xu Linglong is a famous romantic, and he does have a lot of lace news. His wife knows this, just open one eye and close one eye. That's it."

Leng Yu let out a "huh" and said, "This is true. There are many lace news and photos of him circulating on the Internet."

Hezmi continued: "His relationship with his wife and children is actually not particularly good. After all, he often travels abroad and rarely stays at home, so he rarely reunites with his family. Only on Christmas Day or Chinese New Year. , Will stay at home for a few days. Otherwise, the home is just a hotel for him."

"Then, when we interrogated Alice, his two children were by his side. The eldest son Xu Congyuan was fourteen years old this year, and the youngest daughter Xu Congling was eleven years old. The daughter is still young, so I don’t want to talk about it. As for the son, he seems I have a lot of dissatisfaction with my father. I don't know whether it is caused by the rebellion of adolescence or Xu Linglong's long-term neglect of the family."

"Just after Xu Congyuan learned of his father's disappearance, his expression did not show obvious shock or sadness. He was extremely indifferent to the whole thing. I guess he was very dissatisfied with his father's merciful behavior everywhere. It was because his father ignored his family that he was full of resentment towards his father."

Leng Yu agreed with Hezmi’s point of view. She said: “If it is placed in other families, it will be the same. Xu Linglong’s lace news continues. There must be students in the school who discriminated and ridiculed Xu Congyuan because of this incident. He is psychologically unbalanced. I want to ask Officer He, do his two children speak Chinese?"

Hezmi said: "It will be. Xu Linglong let the children learn Chinese at school, such as pinyin, and asked them to apply for Chinese. As far as I know, he communicates with his two children in Mandarin."

When Hezmi said the word "pinyin", he had a strong foreign accent.

Leng Yu smiled and said, "Hanyu Pinyin is the basic foundation for learning Chinese. By the way, when it comes to this, one of the photos you just gave you was carved with Chinese fonts, which is the weird found in the place where the case was discovered. Engraving. These engravings are engraved on the inside of the coffin lid. I think Officer He should also know it? However, these engravings are full of hatred between the lines."

Therefore, Leng Yulue translated the meaning of the lettering to Hezmi.

Then, she continued: "I'm thinking, since the lettering is full of hatred, but Mr. Ding's age is very different from Xu Linglong's. Is there really such a big hatred between them? And Mr. Ding. Did you really kill Xu Linglong?"

When talking about this, Leng Yu fell into a cloud of such speculation. The real key is the lettering.

What else is hidden in the lines?

Hezmi nodded. He looked at the engraved photos that Leng Yu said, but they were all Chinese fonts that he couldn't understand.

He said: "I don't know Chinese. The person who engraves must have learned Chinese, otherwise he is of Chinese descent. And I only know the ABC in the English alphabet."

ABC? A message she had never thought of flashed in Leng Yu's head, and Officer He reminded her of this.

Is this the so-called bystander clear?
