Chapter 20 Ten Years
"Tsk tsk tsk, this Zhou Yanchen's family background is really rich."
Curly came over with a stack of information and projected the contents of his computer onto the big screen.
"Zhou Yanchen's family is well-off. His grandfather owns companies both in China and abroad, and they are profitable. His father is a famous surgeon, and he also has a mother who is an elite lawyer. These conditions are so good that people would envy him to death."
Curly displayed the relevant information on the screen, and Luo Xun and the others had already distributed the paper materials themselves.
Cao Bin also sighed: "That's right, Zhou Yanchen has his own gallery and exhibition hall, and he is also a well-known collector in the circle. You can imagine how comfortable his life is. Would he really be so bored that he would kill someone?"
Chi Xia quickly flipped through the information: "Ordinary people are busy making a living. If they are not forced to do so, or act on impulse, few people would use murder and arson as entertainment. But for people like Zhou Yanchen, when he can no longer find satisfaction in material life, he will explore some ways to satisfy their so-called sense of accomplishment, such as some risky, exciting things that ordinary people would not do."
"Chi Xia is right."
Lin Wenjue agrees: "We can never imagine a person's moral bottom line, let alone how many channels they use to seek stimulation. Otherwise, where would the murderers come from? Because killing has become a part of their lives."
Everyone paused, thinking about what Lin Wenjue and Chi Xia had just said.
After a while, Luo Xun raised his arm: "Curly, you continue."
"Oh, okay."
Curly held the electronic pen and turned the page on the screen: "These are the Zhou family's assets that we can find so far."
A staggering asset status appeared on the screen. Cao Bin smacked his lips repeatedly, feeling a little envious.
“It’s definitely more than that.”
Luo Xun stood up: "Chi Xia, you said that Zhou Yanchen must have an absolutely private space where he could commit crimes. Do you think there are any targets among the Zhou family's properties?"
Chi Xia took a quick look, pondered for a moment, and shook his head: "I don't think so. At present, I am more inclined to believe that this place is only known to Zhou Yanchen himself. It belongs to his secret base. Logically speaking, he would not choose a place that is so easy to find."
“And this.”
Curly Hair spoke at the right time: "Zhou Yanchen has a high level of attainment in painting. He is very good at stream-of-consciousness painting and has won many awards abroad. But for some reason, he has only won a few awards in China. Even if he has, they are not very influential awards, which is very different from his awards abroad."
This means that Zhou Yanchen has a superb appreciation ability in appreciating paintings.
Would such a person sell his treasured paintings at a low price? Or is there a possibility that he met a soulmate and gave the painting as a gift? It is not impossible for artists to do this.
Chi Xia's attention was attracted by the awards and his rare paintings. She pondered and suddenly said, "Brother Yu, I want to see the detailed information of Zhou Yanchen's parents, including his grandfather."
"This is easy." Curly immediately started working on the computer: "Do you want me to print it out for you?"
"This is better." Chi Xia said.
Soon, the information of Zhou Yanchen's parents and grandfather appeared in Chi Xia's hands. She looked at the three documents with a frown, which made Cao Bin and Lin Wenjue a little nervous.
Seeing that she didn't speak for a long time, Cao Bin asked tentatively: "Chi Xia, is there any problem?"
Hearing his voice, Chi Xia raised her head. She glanced at Luo Xun first, and then said, "There is no need to talk about Zhou Yanchen's grandfather. He started from scratch and has a successful career. Zhou Yanchen's father and mother are both leaders in their respective fields. Under such circumstances, Zhou Yanchen, as the only son of the Zhou family, can imagine the pressure he is under."
What will a child who lives under pressure since childhood look like?
He will be like a balloon that is constantly inflated and will eventually burst.
Just as Chi Xia finished speaking, the phone Cao Bin had placed on the table rang, and everyone subconsciously stopped talking.
Cao Bin answered the phone with a look of joy on his face: "Boss, the comparison results from the technical investigation are out. It can be confirmed that the sample surveillance we sent over matches the target person. We made no mistake!"
Chi Xia raised the corners of her lips and smiled.
This smile fell into Luo Xun's eyes, and he chuckled to himself: "Very good, the next step is to wait for the feedback from the Transportation Bureau. Lao Lin, show your shameless spirit and urge them."
Lin Wenjue said cheerfully: "Okay, I'll go right away!"
He walked aside to make a phone call. Luo Xun looked at the time and found that in the blink of an eye, it was almost time for dinner.
"Let's go eat first." He picked up his clothes and walked out: "Let's go to the cafeteria and talk while we eat."
After he said this, everyone came to their senses and touched their stomachs. They were suddenly filled with hunger.
Chi Xia also sighed secretly, thinking that she had come to the task force but had not even had a proper meal.
She followed Luo Xun and the others to the cafeteria. She was replying to messages on her phone when she saw Luo Xun slow down his pace and walk at the same pace as her.
Chi Xia quickly put down the phone and called out, "Captain Luo."
Luo Xun followed her steps, his hands in his pockets: "In the task force, you may often go hungry. It's not good for a girl to be exhausted, don't you think?"
"yes."
Chi Xia nodded along with what he said and looked sideways at him: "Captain Luo, are you so keen on letting me transfer?"
Her eyes sparkled in the sunlight. Luo Xun looked at her dark pupils and inexplicably felt a little guilty.
He missed her gaze and grabbed a handful of hair: "Don't think I look down on you, I'm doing this for your own good. Isn't it good for a girl to live a stable life, with one meal full and the other hungry? Do you think that's good?"
"So you always bought food for me yesterday?" Chi Xia's eyes were still on his face.
Luo Xun snorted coldly: "You're overthinking."
"That's overthinking."
Chi Xia retracted his gaze, but the smile on his lips did not disappear: "Captain Luo, I will consider transferring you to another position. You don't have to remind me every day. At least wait until this case is over first."
She quickened her pace and distanced herself from Luo Xun.
This made Luo Xun a little confused. Didn't she refuse righteously several times before? Why did she suddenly consider it now? Do girls change so quickly?
Sure enough, she still had the urge to back off.
Luo Xun stood there, looking up at the sun in the sky. The sunlight was very dazzling. He squinted his eyes and a bitter smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.
How many people can persevere to the end? It is a good thing to choose a life that suits you early. Don't be like him, who insisted on going down a single path and is still in the dark today.
Living like him is not a good thing.
A message came on his mobile phone, he looked down, and his face, which was originally smiling bitterly, was suddenly covered with clouds.
I had originally thought that we could discuss the case during dinner, but for some reason, Captain Luo seemed to be in a very bad mood, and he exuded a sense of low pressure.
Chi Xia ate her meal quietly, as if she was traveling in outer space.
When she came back to her senses, she realized that the atmosphere was not right, but when she looked again, Lin Wenjue and the others seemed to be accustomed to this situation, and even seemed to be following Luo Xun.
Chi Xia became curious and silently observed the situation at the dinner table.
Luo Xun finished his meal quickly and left on his own. Cao Bin and Juanmao at the dinner table were obviously relieved.
"Is there any new news?" Cao Bin asked.
Curly sighed: "It's definitely not good news, otherwise how could the boss be so embarrassed?"
"Ah, the boss is really pitiful..."
Cao Bin also sighed: "Ten years, ten years. Who wouldn't be disappointed?"
"Okay, even eating can't shut your mouth."
Lin Wenjue saw through the glass that Luo Xun had disappeared after lighting a cigarette, and then he came to his senses and said to Cao Bin, "Just follow his lead for the next two days."
Cao Bin and Juanmao both nodded.
Although Chi Xia was curious, he didn't say anything and just drank his soup silently.
Instead, Lin Wenjue said to her, "Chi Xia, Captain Luo may be in a bad mood sometimes, so don't take it too seriously. He's not targeting any of us. Don't be afraid, he 'll ."
"Okay." Chi Xia nodded and said.
It's not directed at anyone, it's a private matter. Ten years, ten years, she was thinking about their conversation just now. Ten years, what is that?
