Chapter 144 Zhao Jianguo
Luo Xun had been talking to Zhao Jianguo on the phone for two days, and today was the first time he met him.
He is in his forties, of medium height, with a square face, a dark complexion, and three vertical wrinkles between his eyebrows. It is easy to imagine how worried he is.
He looked very righteous overall, but now he looked tired and his eyes were dark.
"Captain Luo, I'm so sorry that I only met you today."
Seeing Luo Xun and Chi Xia coming over, Zhao Jianguo walked over and shook hands with them: "This rain came too quickly, and several villages were blown away by the water."
Luo Xun and Chi Xia shook hands with him one after another, and as they walked inside, Luo Xun asked, "You probably haven't had time to go home yet, have you?"
Zhao Jianguo smiled and waved his hands, not caring about it.
Wei Guoliang muttered to the side: "Master hasn't slept for two days, and he hasn't had time to eat yet."
Zhao Jianguo kicked his apprentice naturally and skillfully: " Why are you butting in on a conversation like a little brat?"
Wei Guoliang pursed his lips and touched the place where he was kicked.
Luo Xun stopped and said , "Director Zhao, we are made of iron and steel. Xiao Wei will assist us with the case. If I need anything else, I will contact you. I think you should eat something first and then go home for a good sleep."
"You can sleep anytime!"
Zhao Jianguo glared at his apprentice again, and when he looked at Luo Xun, he smiled and said, "Don't take the kid's nonsense seriously."
"The disciple loves the master, that's what I care about."
Luo Xun laughed, and his expression became a little more serious: "Director Zhao, health is the capital of revolution, you should go back and rest first. I am here to help, not to inspect. Can we both relax a little?"
Zhao Jianguo looked at him for a few seconds, and the two of them laughed together. He patted Luo Xun on the shoulder and said, "Brother Luo, if you say that to me, I will be really rude."
Luo Xun pushed him out: "Hurry up, get some sleep first and we'll talk about other things later."
Zhao Jianguo had a complicated expression, smiled bitterly and said "ah", then instructed Wei Guoliang: "Stinky boy, Captain Luo and Officer Chi are from the Municipal Bureau, you should study hard and don't be lazy, do you hear me!"
Wei Guoliang nodded repeatedly: "Master, I heard it! You should go eat something quickly. If you don't go back, Master's wife will be very worried."
Zhao Jianguo pretended to hit him: "You have no respect for your elders!"
He said unnecessary thanks to Luo Xun and Chi Xia and hurried home. As soon as he turned around, he yawned with tears in his eyes.
Wei Guoliang was very tactful. As soon as he left, he said to Luo Xun and the others, "Captain Luo, Officer Chi, Master asked me to clean up a room for our temporary office. I've got it all ready. Shall I take you there?"
Luo Xun followed him and said, "You said on the phone that the identities of the three dead have been confirmed, right?"
"Yes!" Wei Guoliang was a little excited and quickened his pace: "Captain Luo, you will know when you go up there."
The young man was still keeping the secret, so Luo Xun and Chi Xia didn't ask any more questions. The three of them went upstairs and soon arrived at a room in the middle of the corridor.
"This was originally going to be Lao Zhao's office."
Wei Guoliang pushed the door open: "Old Zhao said he wanted to climb two more floors to exercise, and this place became empty. It's just right for us to use now."
When I opened the door, I found it was very clean inside. It must have been cleaned temporarily.
Luo Xun and Chi Xia's attention was immediately attracted by a movable blackboard.
When the two saw it, they understood why the young man wanted to keep it a secret.
Wei Guoliang not only spent one night to determine the identities of these three people, but also printed them out and made a simple case board, just like their task force analyzed the case.
"Not bad." Luo Xun did not hesitate to praise: "You made this in one night?"
Xiao Wei suppressed his excitement of being praised and scratched his head: "I am just learning from you, Captain Luo. I am not doing well, but as long as I can... be of use, that's enough."
"Although there is room for improvement, it's still a good job." Chi Xia walked up and adjusted the positions of the relevant photos. He quickly added and deleted some clues and information, making the case board clearer.
She suddenly thought of something: "But Xiao Wei, you just said you were learning from Captain Luo?"
Xiao Wei then realized that he had let the cat out of the bag, and he couldn't find any excuse to make up for it, and his face turned a little red.
"Just...just last year, Master took me to a meeting in the city, and someone took us to visit the city bureau's office building. That time we happened to see Captain Luo and his team analyzing the case..."
Luo Xun searched his mind several times and finally had some impression: "That time, I was too busy and didn't pay much attention. I was wondering why your master looked familiar, but I couldn't remember where I had seen him before."
Xiao Wei smiled foolishly: "I didn't expect that I could work on a case with Captain Luo..."
"There will be plenty of opportunities in the future."
Luo Xun said: "Okay, let's get back to the case. Tell me, young man, what did you find out last night?"
Wei Guoliang was a little nervous about making a report. He adjusted his breathing, then picked up the relevant materials and distributed them to Luo Xun and Chi Xia: "Then I'll start."
Luo Xun and Chi Xia sat on their chairs, crossed their legs and looked through the documents, and said in unison: "Well, let's get started."
Xiao Wei was stunned for a second, but soon came to his senses and pointed to the photo of the deceased on the case board and said, "There are three victims in the Xiaoyezipo murder case. After investigation, the identities of the three deceased have been confirmed. They are..."
"Shi Guangxuan, 38 years old, from Dingmin County, is the owner of a small decoration company."
"Yao Lixing, 38 years old, is a fellow villager of Shi Guangxuan, also from Dingmin County. He also runs a decoration company, which is slightly larger than Shi Guangxuan's."
"The last one is Guo Yiliang, 35 years old. Guo Yiliang is not from Dingmin County. He is from Yubin County. He is the owner of a tile supplier. I checked and found that Shi Guangxuan and Yao Lixing's decoration companies should have cooperative relations with him."
As he was talking, Luo Xun and Chi Xia also finished reading the information in their hands.
"In other words, there is a competitive relationship between Shi Guangxuan and Yao Lixing, but they also have a vested interest in Guo Yiliang. Xiao Wei, is that right?" Chi Xia asked.
Xiao Wei thought for a moment and said, "That's right, but this morning, Master... um... After Chief Zhao found out the identities of the deceased, he called their families to inform them. From the communication between him and the families of the deceased, I don't think it's likely that these three people were killed because of conflicts of interest."
Chi Xia looked at him with a hint of surprise: "Then what do you think it is?"
Although the look was one of encouragement and approval, Wei Guoliang was inexplicably nervous. He still said, "The families of the three deceased said that Shi Guangxuan, Yao Lixing and Guo Yiliang had a very good relationship. They were also members of an adventure club and often went hiking, camping or exploring together."
Chi Xia put the information in his hand on the table: "We have the same hobbies, so did your master ask them when these people started playing together?"
Wei Guoliang's face fell: "I only... I only know that Shi Guangxuan and Yao Lixing have always had a good relationship. As for when they played together... I'll go ask right away!"
"Don't worry."
Luo Xun stopped him: "The family members heard the bad news suddenly, and now Yu Ji can't go in or out, they must be very upset. What should you ask, how to ask, and how to coordinate their emotions when asking, you have to think of all these. If you ask a question when you think of it, what will you do with the next question? When investigating a case, you have to be anxious when you should be anxious, and you have to be patient when you shouldn't be anxious. Do you understand?"
Wei Guoliang wanted to take out a notebook and write down these words quickly. He shouted in a loud voice: "I understand!"
"so……"
Chi Xia touched a bump on the table and said, "Xiao Wei, do you suspect that their murder was related to their hobby of adventure?"
