Li Cheng this clue, Qin Ming will miss it? I think not, in fact, before leaving, I tried to see what he had investigated. However, he temporarily did not agree, saying that he was afraid of affecting the rookie detective's case thinking, so he encouraged me to conduct my own investigation first. Was Qin Ming worried that I would interfere with their case? I shook my head, but this also prompted me to meet the white knight mentioned by Shao Yin, who in her description is a wealthy and sentimental overbearing man. After all, what one finds out for oneself is more direct.
When I appeared at Licheng's company, the curly-haired female secretary sitting there flashed a hint of hostility in her eyes after hearing my intention. She called herself Surname Si and, after making sure I hadn't made an appointment with Licheng beforehand, politely blocked me: "Sorry, our CEO has something urgent..."
"Please tell him that I'm a police officer and I'd like to ask him some questions about the Guan Xinyue murder case. Maybe he'll be willing to meet with me."
I calmly gazed at the woman in front of me, who was dressed in a seductive outfit. At the same time, I quickly made a judgment: on the right side of the desk, there was an expensive hand cream and a high-end lipstick, clearly she knew how to take care of herself. When she saw me, she deliberately took off her glasses, and I guessed that she wasn't nearsighted, but rather wore those so-called blue light or anti-radiation glasses, which further confirmed my speculation - this was a woman who extremely enjoyed life. Her fingernails were carefully manicured. She wore a fitting professional suit, which was clearly expensive. Plus the fragrance of perfume wafting from her body, I suspected that her monthly salary wouldn't be enough to support her use of such expensive things. But looking at her desk, it was somewhat messy, and you could tell that she was a person who was usually quite careless. Could she be one of Li Cheng's many mistresses?
The secretary's face lit up with a bright smile, the fine lines at the corners of her eyes betraying her age, she should be over 25 years old. After politely asking me to sit down, she picked up the phone and then very seriously asked me to go in.
The first time I saw Li Cheng in the spacious office, I thought he was Li Cheng's assistant or bodyguard. Because he looked nothing like the romantic and elegant Li Cheng that Shao Yin had described. I was stunned for a while, until he spoke in Mandarin with a strong local accent and introduced himself, then I finally realized that he was indeed the Li Cheng I was supposed to meet.
"I know, I heard from Yinyin that you're her friend. Was it Yinyin who brought you here? Is it for her own business? Why didn't she come herself? Haven't I said it before? As to whether or not she's the murderer, I won't put my heart into it, but there can't be any future between us either. Let's just end it like this, I'm tired and don't want to stir up more trouble. However, you also bring a message to her, I won't treat her unfairly, after all, we've met before." Li Cheng was indeed a businessman, his words were without any politeness, as if in his eyes, Shao Yinyin was just an employee of his company.
After saying that, his gaze was as if he was appraising some goods, and with a presumptuous gaze, he carefully scanned me from head to toe, with a few more points of blame in his eyes. A hint of disdainful smile hung at the corner of his mouth.
Is this treating me as an enemy or a negotiating opponent? For the first time encountering such a situation, I was stunned for a moment before saying: "I think you've misunderstood. My purpose in coming here is absolutely not to interfere with your affairs, but to deal with official business, that is, the murder case that occurred two days ago. The deceased... Guan Xinyue... heard that she had a close relationship with you before her death, do you have any information?"
"You're... the friend she mentioned who works at the police station? If you want to handle this officially, then go back and review my statement. I've said all that needs to be said. I understand, she's trying to clear her own name, so she sent you to bother me? She really has a way of looking out for herself. Whatever! Whatever! I hope you can consider my feelings, at least for now I still can't think about the past. For me, this is like the sky falling down. I'm just unlucky to have gotten mixed up in this. As for Xinyue's death, I'm deeply saddened and couldn't think straight, so I couldn't mention her past in front of you. She was a good girl... You should go back and ask your colleagues about that, I've already said all there is to say, nothing more to add." Li Cheng's face was filled with sorrow, his hands waving constantly, clearly not welcoming my arrival.
This man is really... uh! It's truly an unexpected reaction, in any case, aren't they both his women? No matter if it's for Guan Xinyue or Shao Yin, he should cooperate with my investigation without hesitation, shouldn't he? I used a lot of effort to control the urge to hit him and forced out a smile: "We still have some small details that are unclear, so we want to ask again. Don't misunderstand, I'm just..."
Li Cheng obviously didn't want to continue on this topic, he had already called over Secretary Si to end the conversation. It looked like he was trying to escape something. But who made me come out without a name? So I could only smile and respond, "I can leave, but this matter isn't over. Don't you think that since you've met Shao Yin, you should give her justice? I believe she's innocent..."
"Is she innocent? With the kind of woman she is, I wouldn't be surprised if she did anything. She once said that if I dared to be with Guan Xinyue, she would ruin her. These are her own words, aren't they true? Now that Xinyue is dead, how can you expect me to think? Li Cheng said indignantly, glaring at me, "You're her friend, don't be deceived by her appearance. If it wasn't for my money, do you think she would be with me? Even after a homicide case, didn't I settle it with my money? You're also... a member of the people's police force, how can you believe what she says?"
However, his emotions quickly calmed down, and he hastily handed me a business card. "Sorry, I got a bit too excited! After all, Guan Xinyue is the woman I love most dearly, and when I heard the news of her passing, I really... couldn't calm myself down. But since you're getting involved in this case, maybe it's a good thing. I also want to know what happened to Xinyue? Why did such an accident occur? If it wasn't Shao Yin who did it, then who could it be? This is the address of Xinyue's nanny and where she lived. You can go ask around, there should be things you're looking for there. Also, I'd like to propose a small condition: next time you appear, can we arrange a meeting somewhere else? I don't want this matter to affect my company's normal operations."
