Chapter Twelve Old Friends
"Um."
Zhong Tianzheng nodded, his eyes staying on the monitor without moving away.
Ah Xiang, who was sitting aside, looked up at his handsome face. He hesitated for a moment, then pointed the recorder at Zhong Tianzheng, and then changed the direction of monitoring.
This is the role of the two-person visit.
It can have the effect of mutual supervision.
Turn your attention back to the surveillance.
in the screen.
The two sat in the corner and exchanged words quickly. After about a minute, Peter took out a bulging brown envelope from his pocket and pushed it to the man opposite.
The two exchanged a few more words, and then Peter stood up and left.
The remaining men ordered steaks by themselves and ate happily. No one else came until the man left.
"Did you take the photo?"
Zhong Tianzheng looked sideways at Ah Xiang: "Let's leave after taking the photo and ask him."
"good!"
Ah Xiang nodded and stood up.
…
"Azheng, where are we going?"
Sitting in the police car, Ah Xiang kept looking at him curiously.
This was the first time she saw Zhong Tianzheng with such a serious expression.
"This person is your good friend, right?"
As a policeman's basic qualities, Ah Xiang made his own speculation.
"yes."
Zhong Tianzheng held the steering wheel with a smile on his face: "His name is Yan Zhaoxing. He is a classmate of mine at university and a very good friend. After graduation, he opened an antique shop called Gexiangzhai on the old street in the west of the city.
.”
Speaking of Yan Zhaoxing, Zhong Tianzheng remembered.
It seems like I haven't contacted him for a while.
Therefore, I started to talk more unconsciously.
"This person is very interesting. According to his words: just play around and make money, and make it in style." Zhong Tianzheng said here, paused: "My biggest friendship with him is
, because he saved me."
"That time when we were playing on the street, an out-of-control truck rushed out. If he hadn't pulled me out in time, you probably wouldn't have seen me."
Having said this, Zhong Tianzheng took out a cigarette and lit it.
Ah Xiang tilted her head and listened intently: "Then do you think he has something to do with this case?"
This handsome man is telling himself about his friend, hehe, our relationship is getting closer.
"I don't know, I hope he doesn't."
Zhong Tianzheng blew out the smoke: "If there is evidence pointing to him, there is nothing we can do."
at this time.
A motorcycle traffic policeman appeared in the rearview mirror, waved to them, and stopped the police car.
"Comrade, if you are smoking while driving, please show your driver's license."
The traffic policeman took off his helmet and stretched out his hand.
This person is also young and has a kind face.
"..."
Zhong Tianzheng threw down his cigarette butt and honestly took out his ID.
After some interrogation, he wrote a ticket and came in: "According to the regulations, if you drive... you will be fined two hundred and two points."
"Okay, be sure to pay attention next time."
Zhong Tianzheng started the fire again, which was very depressing.
Two hundred yuan, my heart is bleeding!
Ah Xiang, the co-pilot, covered her face and said shyly: "A Zheng, we are so embarrassed."
"Keep it secret, keep it secret."
Zhong Tianzheng cleared his throat and stepped on the accelerator to sixty miles.
…
Chengxi Old Street.
A major feature of this old street is that there are many antique shops.
"Gexiangzhai."
Zhong Tianzheng looked up at the large plaque and stepped in.
Ah Xiang turned on the recorder to follow up.
Gexiangzhai's store is not big, about thirty square meters. There are various ornaments on the wooden display table, and behind it are the tiered shelves.
At this time, there were no customers in the store.
Yan Zhaoxing was lying on the table and squinting.
"Dong dong dong."
Zhong Tianzheng knocked on the solid wood painted tabletop, and Yan Zhaoxing started playing: "If you like it, take a look at it." There was a line at the corner of his mouth.
"Pfft."
Ah Xiang couldn't help but cover her mouth and chuckle.
"Pay attention to your image."
Zhong Tianzheng criticized Ah Xiang, and he couldn't help but laugh: "Zhaoxing, long time no see."
"I'm going, Azheng, it's you, long time no see!"
Yan Zhaoxing was a little surprised to see Zhong Tianzheng, and warmly greeted him to sit in front of the tea table and boil water to make tea.
"No need to bother, we came to you just to understand the situation." Zhong Tianzheng waved his hands and sat down: "There is a case that requires your cooperation."
"The theft?"
Yan Zhaoxing kept moving his hands and made tea skillfully: "Okay, okay, you ask, I will cooperate, I have learned it in school."
Ah Xiang raised her eyebrows: "You know?"
"You are making declarations everywhere on the Internet. Who doesn't know? I know that this is to put psychological pressure on the suspect." Yan Zhaoxing poured out the water for the first time and kept talking: "I also know that you came to me because
I met that Pete."
"Okay, let's get straight to the point."
Zhong Tianzheng took out his notebook and began to record: "What is your purpose of meeting Peter?"
"A friend introduced me to a client that I have been chatting with for a long time." Yan Zhaoxing poured the tea into the cup and drank it himself: "Pete said that he has been restless recently and can't sleep. He wants to buy a small belt.
bring."
"He is a foreigner, but he still likes this?" Zhong Tianzheng wrote quickly.
"It's just personal preference."
"I see the money he gave you is quite a lot."
"Hey, it's easy to make money for foreigners." Yan Zhao smiled happily: "There are three in total, just barely."
Zhong Tianzheng pondered for a moment: "I remember, your English is not good?"
"Yes, my English is indeed not good." Yan Zhaoxing shrugged: "But this does not hinder our communication."
"Huh?" Zhong Tianzheng frowned: "You mean, he can speak Chinese?"
"Yes, and a fluent one."
Yan Zhaoxing snapped his fingers: "There are only so many clues I can provide. You'd better not bother with this line. It's a waste of time."
"If I were you, I would choose to set up surveillance near the community. If the suspect is not a habitual criminal, after hearing the news and under pressure, he will definitely go back to the community to inquire about the situation."
"By the way, you should also consider the possibility of self-inflicted theft. How can such a small USB flash drive be lost at home? If I were to commit a burglary, I would not necessarily steal it even if the USB flash drive was placed in my face."
"Third point, you can investigate the competitors of the company where the crime occurred, you know."
Yan Zhaoxing showed a look you know, shook his head and started drinking tea.
Zhong Tianzheng grinned and closed his notebook: "It's a shame you don't become a police officer."
"I want to, but he doesn't have the strength to do so."
Yan Zhaoxing waved his hand, full of force.
really.
The decorations in Yan Zhaoxing's home, this tea table alone, are worth Zhong Tianzheng's salary for a year.
"Then let's go first."
Zhong Tianzheng stood up, turned around and went out.
This trip was not without success, at least he got a clue.
