Chapter 80 The Light of Righteousness (Available today, please pre-order, 4000 words left in the evening)
Hearing this, Xiao Heyun said, "You, don't say that, it makes it sound like a farewell between life and death!"
Lin Hao said: "By the way, what are you doing in the city?"
Xiao Heyun said: "I'm going to a meeting. I'm looking for investment for the game I made!"
Lin Hao said jokingly: "That's great, you can go find your sponsor now. Anyway, you know how to loop, so it's easy for you to find out the sponsor's bottom line. Next time, maybe you can get him to invest all at once!"
"It would be interesting to think that every move and every idea of your sponsor is within your expectations!"
Xiao Heyun thought about it and laughed unconsciously: "That makes sense!"
"If you put it that way, then it's not developed yet!"
"Okay, then I'll go first!" Action speaks louder than words, Xiao Heyun is ready to leave!
Seeing Xiao Heyun taking a taxi, Lin Hao once again reminded him of the reason for leaving:
"Remember the reason you got off the car. You were pressed for time for a meeting and there was a weird smell in the car, so you got off and took a taxi to the meeting. You don't know anything else!"
After Xiao Heyun left, Li Shiqing said to Lin Hao awkwardly:
"You, you just said that we were playing a couple!"
Seeing Li Shiqing's uneasy look, Lin Hao said with some amusement:
"We definitely need a good reason to get off the bus!"
"That's right!"
Lin Hao said: This is what I think. We are a couple who have just confirmed our relationship. You are going to the city to buy books, and you can come with me to pick up the car.
Li Shiqing asked: "Then where should we go now?"
"Of course you'll come with me to pick up the car!"
After that, Lin Hao took Li Shiqing in a taxi to the city, and then they ate and played. Until 14:30 in the afternoon, Lin Hao asked Li Shiqing to call the police!
At 14:45 in the afternoon, Lin Hao drove his new car and brought Li Shiqing to the police station. At this time, Captain Zhang was waiting for them downstairs!
So he got out of the car and went straight to Captain Zhang and asked, "Hello, how do I get to the meeting room on the first floor?"
Captain Zhang looked the two up and down and realized that they were the ones who provided the clues, so he stepped forward and shook hands with them.
"You are Lin Hao!"
"Ah, yes!"
"Then you are Li Shiqing, and it was you who made the call!"
"Yes, I called!"
After confirming that everything was correct, Captain Zhang said:
"I'm Zhang Cheng, deputy captain of the criminal investigation team, and this is my colleague Xiao Jiang!"
"I'm waiting for you, come in with me!"
Afterwards, Lin Hao was taken to the conference room, where Director Du, Ye Qian and a recorder were already waiting for them!
Director Du stood up and said, "Thank you for your active cooperation. Please take a seat!"
Captain Zhang asked Jiang Feng to get two glasses of water, and then said to the two of them kindly:
"Thank you!"
"Thank you for making the trip and cooperating with us in investigating the bus case!"
"I hope you two can recall in detail everything you saw and heard on the bus, no matter how big or small. The more detailed the better!"
Seeing that the atmosphere was very harmonious, Lin Hao tried to speak in a relaxed manner:
"It's like this, my girlfriend and I were going to the city, but we fell asleep in the car, and when we woke up, we were almost at Yanjiang East Road Station!"
"Then for some reason, we got off the bus early!"
"Later, when we saw the news about the explosion, we realized that the bus that exploded was the one we took at noon!"
"My girlfriend thought she might be able to provide some clues that could help you, so she made this call!"
Captain Zhang asked in confusion: "Well, you guys decided to get off at Yanjiang East Road Station at the last minute!"
Lin Hao and Li Shiqing nodded at the same time!
Captain Zhang continued to ask: "Then what made you decide to get off the bus early?"
Lin Hao said: "It's like this, we smelled a pungent smell in the car, I guess that's why we woke up!"
“Then my girlfriend thought the smell was weird and wanted to know where it was coming from!”
We walked forward two steps and found that the smell came from a red plastic bag at the feet of a woman sitting in front of the back door. We had no idea what it was!
Li Shiqing said: "It should be a pressure cooker. I have used it before and it looks similar!"
Captain Zhang asked, "Can you describe the smell?"
Li Shiqing said: "I can't put it into words. I don't know what words to use to describe it!"
"Oh, now I remember, it smells a bit like the chemistry lab in our school!"
Lin Hao also said: "After all, we are not experts and don't know much about this!"
Captain Zhang already had a guess in his mind, but he didn't think he could ask more, so he asked other questions:
"Are there any other anomalies?"
Lin Hao said: "By the way, I feel like this woman has some mental problems!"
Captain Zhang: "What's wrong with your mind?"
Lin Hao pretended to think about it and said:
"He was still mumbling something, like we were all going to be buried together, all blown up, one forty-five or something like that!"
"Anyway, it's just supernatural!"
Li Shiqing also said: "Also, her tone is a bit creepy, which makes people feel creepy, and there is something wrong with the way she looks at people, like a walking corpse without emotions!"
Lin Hao said: "Then when the bus was about to arrive at the stop, I couldn't resist my girlfriend, so I got off the bus with her!"
Captain Zhang frowned and asked doubtfully:
"That is to say, there was a distinct pungent smell, and he was mentally ill. Were you the only ones who heard it at the time? Didn't the others react?"
Lin Hao immediately said: "Why is there no response?"
"You don't know, she was sitting in the middle of the right side of the bus, and there was no one sitting around her. We only heard it when we were looking for the source of the smell!"
Li Shiqing added: "Oh, and when we got off the bus, there was also a man getting off!"
"I couldn't stand the smell either. We chatted for a while after we got off the bus!"
Captain Zhang's doubts disappeared, and he said;
"We already know this person, he is here too!"
At this time, Director Du said to Ye Qian beside him: "Go check this woman and the location of the vehicle explosion!"
Lin Hao and Li Shiqing looked at each other, it was obvious that this method worked!
As long as we guide them to check this woman, they will easily get the information!
Captain Zhang immediately took out a photo from the stack of photos in his hand and asked:
"Is it this woman?"
Lin Hao and Li Shiqing said in unison:
"Yes, that's her"
Captain Zhang pointed at the man with the red suitcase:
"This man got in the car with her. Do they know each other?"
Li Shiqing shook her head and said, "I don't know him!"
After hearing Li Shiqing's answer, Captain Zhang asked Li Shiqing in confusion:
"Why are you so sure!"
Lin Hao added at this time:
"They probably don't know each other, because there is no communication between the two of them, and they are quite different in appearance and temperament!"
"Besides, this guy looks quite normal. He doesn't seem to be the same type as this woman!"
At this time, Captain Zhang always felt that there was something strange about these two people, but he couldn't find what was wrong, so he began to inquire about them!
"Hey! By the way, what are you going to the city for?"
Lin Hao smiled slightly and said:
"Oh, she just agreed to be my girlfriend not long ago, and I was so excited that I went to buy a car. She happened to be going to buy books today, so I planned to pick up the car today, so I arranged to take this bus to go to the city together!" Captain Zhang, who was inadvertently sprinkled with dog food, said seriously:
"Oh, that's alright!"
At this time, Ye Qian returned to the meeting room and said to Director Du:
"The trace department said that they did find fragments of a pressure cooker, and the explosion location was in the middle of the right side of the bus!"
"Also, Xiao Heyun said he smelled a pungent odor and got off the car because he was in a hurry!"
At this time, Director Du said to Lin Hao and Li Shiqing:
"Thank you for your cooperation. It allowed us to find the clue so quickly. Please think carefully again to see if there are any other abnormalities on the bus!"
Then everyone followed Director Du out of the meeting room. In the office, Director Du said vigorously:
"What these two people said is very similar to what the other eyewitness said!"
"It is now basically certain that the woman carrying the red plastic bag is a major suspect. From now on, we will investigate this woman and share the information we find in a timely manner!"
"Lao Zhang, please guide these two witnesses and see if you can find other clues. We can't just pin our hopes on one person!"
"It is also possible that there are other reasons or other possibilities!"
Captain Zhang said seriously: "Don't worry, I'll take control!"
Lin Hao and Li Shiqing waited in the conference room for a while, and saw Captain Zhang walk in again with a piece of paper in his hand!
Captain Zhang handed a bus seat map to Lin Hao and said:
"Please help us mark the locations of people on the bus!"
"Ok!"
Lin Hao and Li Shiqing were naturally very happy, because this way they could stay here for a while, so they delayed the time a little when marking!
At this time, Ye Qian came in and said:
"Captain Zhang, the identity of the woman in the red plastic bag has been confirmed. She is Tao Yinghong, 56 years old, originally from Jiaodao, currently living in Gangwu New Village, and currently working in a chemical factory!"
Upon hearing this, Captain Zhang immediately raised Tao Yinghong's suspicion and said to Ye Qian:
"Have you checked Tao Yinghong's home?"
Ye Qian replied: "Jiang Feng has already taken people there."
Lin Hao and Li Shiqing had already overheard the murderer's information. When they saw Captain Zhang looking at them, they said:
"Captain Zhang, we have marked the seats, but we can't remember some of them, and we are not sure about some others!"
"Take a look!"
"Okay!" Captain Zhang took the personnel distribution map from Lin Hao and said to Ye Qian:
"Go and invite Xiao Heyun over as well!"
"Yes!"
Then he said to Lin Hao and Li Shiqing:
"Xiao Heyun is the person who got off the car with you. If there are three of you, you should be able to confirm it!"
After Xiao Heyun entered the conference room, Lin Hao and Li Shiqing pretended that they were not familiar with Xiao Heyun. After a conversation, they spent some time finally determining the positions of the people!
At this time Ye Qian came in again and said:
"Captain Zhang, we have confirmed that Tao Yinghong is the murderer of this explosion. We found chemical raw materials in her rented house in Gangwu New Village!"
"And we also discovered~!"
Before Ye Qian could finish her words, Captain Zhang interrupted:
"Let's go out and talk!"
Ye Qian glanced at the three of them and said, "Okay!"
After Captain Zhang and the others left, Lin Hao whispered to Li Shiqing and Xiao Heyun:
"It seems that we won't get any follow-up news for the time being!"
Xiao Heyun also said: "At least we got the information about this woman, but we want more information~!"
Li Shiqing said: "The next development of the case is of great importance, and they definitely don't want us to know!"
"What should we do next? Should we continue to wait for news or take a nap?"
Xiao Heyun said: "They won't announce what happened in the short term. We can't stay awake forever, and there is no need for us to stay here now!"
Lin Hao felt that what Xiao Heyun said made sense, but he felt that he seemed to have other purposes. Thinking that he was going to meet the sponsor, he said:
"Why, investors have not been successful anywhere!"
Xiao Heyun smiled and said, "We can still do it in a cycle!"
The meaning is self-evident!
Lin Hao thought of a problem that had not been solved, so he said to Li Shiqing:
"Shiqing, I'll give you Captain Zhang's contact information!"
"Xiao Heyun and I will cooperate with you!"
After leaving the house, Captain Zhang began to listen to Ye Qian's report:
"Captain Zhang, we found out that Tao Yinghong's husband, Wang Xingde, is the driver of this bus, and their daughter!"
After listening to Ye Qian, Captain Zhang said, "Continue to check the information of Wang Xingde and their daughter!"
"We're already investigating. What about those three?"
"You can let them go back now. Apply for a reward for any clues they provide!"
Captain Zhang then returned to the conference room, and Li Shiqing said:
"Captain Zhang, can I call you Uncle Zhang? I think you're quite friendly! And I want to ask you a question!"
Captain Zhang was a little stunned, then smiled and said:
"Oh, sure, just tell me what you want to say!"
Li Shiqing said: "Uncle Zhang, we were lucky to get off the bus early this time, but if we encounter a similar situation in the future, we should deal with it correctly to help you!"
"If you find similar problems in the future, you can call the police directly. The solution will require specific problems and specific analysis!"
Li Shiqing continued to ask:
"If someone sent you a message saying there was a bomb in the car 10 minutes before the explosion, would you believe him and call the police immediately?
Captain Zhang looked at Li Shiqing and felt that he must have been frightened by this incident, so he said:
"I will dispatch the police without hesitation!"
Li Shiqing: "Don't you think this is some kind of prank or a false alarm?"
Captain Zhang: "Then we will catch him and make him bear the corresponding legal responsibilities!"
"But if this is true, we can save the lives of a whole car of people if we respond!"
“I believe that not only me, but all my colleagues will make this choice!”
“This is what it means to be a police officer!”
At this moment, the three felt that Captain Zhang was glowing. They felt that this light not only soothed their psychological trauma of being killed in explosions more than ten times in a row, but also soothed their previous experiences in the police station!
Seeing the expressions of the three people, Captain Zhang smiled and said:
"Okay, I've wasted a lot of your time today, so go back and do your own things!"
But their goal has not been achieved yet, so Lin Hao asked again:
"Captain Zhang, "What if? I mean what if!"
"Take this case for example. If you really only had less than ten minutes, how would you have prevented the explosion?"
Captain Zhang looked at the expectant eyes of the few people and patiently comforted them:
"Generally speaking, we will pretend to be passengers and get on the bus, then look for opportunities to control the suspect and defuse the bomb!"
Li Shiqing also raised a question:
"But Yanjiang East Road Station is the last stop, and you don't have time to pretend to be passengers and get on the bus!"
Captain Zhang chuckled and said:
"Ha! Let's just ask the traffic police to stop us on the road and then find a chance to get in the car!"
"Uncle Zhang, can I give you my phone number?"
"Yes, Captain Zhang, don't worry, we won't call you randomly to harass you!"
Captain Zhang said with a helpless smile: Okay!
