Chapter 73 Who is the mysterious man?
Gu Nankai looked at the two of them with a serious expression and said, "This situation is a little beyond our expectations."
"Does that mean these people are not suspects in the crime?" Gao Yuan had just found out the contents of the phone cards, and he looked at Gu Nankai anxiously and asked.
Wu Qingluan also had a worried look on her face. She had not expected that they had investigated until now and thought they were close enough to the truth, but she did not expect something like this to happen.
"Come over and talk." Gu Nankai's voice was a little low. He walked past the crowd and came to the desk. The air-conditioning in the serious crime team's office was very cool, but at this moment he still felt like there were beads of sweat on his forehead. He sat down with a heavy face. Gao Yuan and others saw him like this and anticipated what the result would be, so they quickly came over.
" Xie Lingling's financial backers do not have the motive to kill her." After everyone came over, Gu Nankai spoke.
"Teacher Wu, I believe your situation is the same as mine. The results we get from the interrogation of Lin Sheng and others should be the same." Gu Nankai took a deep breath. He tapped the table with his index finger at this moment, showing that the clues in his mind were entangled together, making him a little irritated.
Wu Qingluan hummed when she heard his question, crossed her fingers on the table and said, "Lin Sheng and Xu Kai, who I interrogated here, both felt very sorry for Xie Lingling's death, but at the interrogation site, they were careful and calm. I couldn't see any flaws in them. They were nervous and excited, but they were not afraid of Xie Lingling's death. Moreover, they were able to find evidence to prove their innocence."
Gu Nankai nodded in agreement. The interrogation of the people behind him was exactly the same as Xu Wenxing's. He took a deep breath and slowly exhaled before saying, "These four people all have a good impression of Xie Lingling, but they all said in unison that they don't have any feelings for Xie Lingling."
"Why is this?" Cao Cang and Gao Yuan were both puzzled.
"That's right. If you participate in the interrogation, you will find that these four people have something in common." Gu Nankai glanced at Wu Qingluan as if looking for an identification. Wu Qingluan paused slightly and quickly nodded in approval.
Gu Nankai then said, "These four men come from wealthy families, successful careers, and good personalities. They don't seek women from Zhao Zinan for their own physiological problems. They only seek women from him to reduce unnecessary entanglements with the opposite sex. Most importantly, they are all unmarried."
Gao Yuan also blinked and said, "Captain, I have just checked the phone cards of Xie Lingling who contacted these four people. They are clean. I checked the working hours of Xie Lingling that you brought back. Their call records are consistent with Xie Lingling's working hours. Moreover, each call only lasted for a few dozen seconds. There is nothing abnormal."
Gu Nankai nodded but remained silent. His eyes were fixed on the table, his pupils shaking as he wondered what had gone wrong.
"Let's first use the video surveillance and the information these four people will give us to make arrangements to see if we can actually identify the suspects. If we can indeed identify the suspects, we will only have one last clue." After a brief loss, Gu Nankai regained his composure and immediately began to deploy the next step of work.
After he finished speaking, he scratched his head and said, "It seems that Mr. Wu 's worries were correct. If we successfully rule out Xu Wenxing and others as suspects, then the murderer must be the man who was ruled out after Xie Lingling's sponsor."
"But under the current circumstances, it is so difficult to find that man." Wu Qingluan said somewhat disappointedly while lying on the table.
Seeing that the young men were all a little dejected at the moment, Gu Nankai adjusted his mentality and said, "It's okay. We still have one last chance. As long as we can solve the secrets in Xie Lingling's two wooden boxes, I think it won't be difficult to find that man."
"But it's not an easy task to unlock those two boxes." Wu Qingluan did not feel any hope because of Gu Nankai's encouragement. She still had a dejected look on her face, looking completely different from the usually cool and confident flower of the police station.
Gu Nankai looked at the faces of the guys and said nothing. At this moment, he suddenly had a lot of questions in his mind. Some details that had been ignored all the time all surfaced in his mind. He suddenly stood up and said, "I have to go out for a while. Don't act rashly. Li Meng and Shang Lu will be back soon. Call me immediately when they come back."
Gu Nankai stood up and left. Wu Qingluan immediately stood up and chased after him: "Where are you going?"
Gu Nankai stopped and turned around: "I'm going to find a friend, maybe he can answer the questions in my heart. He has a very strange temper. I have to go alone. This is our agreement."
Wu Qingluan looked at Gu Nankai in confusion and said subconsciously: "Why didn't I know you had a friend like this?"
Wu Qingluan's words were neither loud nor soft, but loud enough for Cao Cang and Gao Yuan to hear. The two young men, who were originally listless, instantly perked up when they heard these words. They turned around at the same time, and all four of them looked in the direction of Gu Nankai and Wu Qingluan.
At this time, Wu Qingluan had her back to them and could not see their expressions, but Gu Nankai saw what was happening here very clearly. Seeing their eyes, Gu Nankai became very embarrassed for a moment, and there was some panic in his eyes. Wu Qingluan also realized that something was wrong at this time. She turned around abruptly and saw the expressions of Cao Cang and Gao Yuan, especially Gao Yuan's exclusive desire to watch the fun and his eagerness for gossip.
"What are you looking at? Why are you looking at me like that? I'm just asking a question." Wu Qingluan was obviously a little anxious, but she still rolled her eyes at Gao Yuan, and then urged Gu Nankai: "Go ahead, let's wait for news here."
Gu Nankai's face looked a little strange, but at this time he nodded blankly after listening to Wu Qingluan's words and turned around and walked out. As soon as Gu Nankai left, Gao Yuan and Cao Cang's desire to watch the fun had not yet dissipated. Gao Yuan looked at Wu Qingluan with a smile: "Teacher Wu, you are worried about the captain."
"Worry about you!" Wu Qingluan secretly swore in her heart that she would never lose to a little kid. She rolled her eyes at Gao Yuan and walked past them to her seat. From a distance, she saw Gao Yuan laughing at Cao Cang. She was embarrassed and shouted again, "Get to work!"
Gao Yuan and Cao Cang exchanged glances with meaningful smiles on their faces. After hearing Wu Qingluan's words, the two men dispersed, but their expressions showed that they were watching the fun.
After leaving the police station, Gu Nankai did not drive the police car, but got into a taxi, skillfully reported a place name and set off.
An hour later it was when he arrived at his destination. The person inside seemed to have expected his arrival. As soon as he entered the door, he smelled the fragrance of tea in the air. The man was sitting on a mat sipping tea, and there was a faint smell of smoke coming from the incense burner on the table.
"Are you encountering difficulties?" Gu Nankai stood respectfully at the door, but the person inside just glanced at him lightly, swallowed a sip of fragrant tea slowly before asking.
"There are some things I can't figure out." Gu Nankai took off his shoes and walked in slowly, sitting opposite him. The man added tea to the cup opposite him and said as he put the teapot down: "Every time you encounter a problem, it's because you can't calm down."
He finally raised his head and glanced at Gu Nankai. Those eyes made Gu Nankai trust and respect him for no reason: "Calm down and think carefully about what you have missed. Calm down and think about the clues you know. Unravel them and find all possible breakthroughs. You just need to calm down."
Gu Nankai looked into his eyes, and his gaze slowly moved to the teacup on the table. He saw subtle ripples through the surface of the cup. The words of the person opposite him were like a spring breeze that slowly calmed his slightly irritated heart. He watched the curling smoke from the incense burner turn into a wisp and dissipate in the air, and slowly closed his eyes.
