Chapter 231 The Child Who Was Burned to Death!
Sheng Xinhuai wears a black turtleneck slim sweater on the upper body and a pair of black tight jeans on the lower body.
The hem of the sweater is tucked into the waistband of jeans, making her waist appear slender and her chest extraordinarily full.
Wearing a red motorcycle jacket, she looked extremely dazzling in the crowd. Under her feet were a pair of long black leather boots, which stretched her slender figure infinitely and gave her a cool and resolute look.
Bright eyes, white teeth, graceful appearance.
There were many young girls coming out to participate in the New Year's Eve activities, and every girl was carefully dressed.
However, the moment she appeared, she still felt stunning and stunning.
When she doesn't show up, you'll find beautiful women everywhere.
When she appeared, she was the only beauty left.
Sheng Xinhuai strode up to Tang Bandit, put his arm around him, and asked aloud: "What are you doing? You don't answer when I call you?"
"I encountered something, but it has been resolved."
Sheng Xinhuai looked at Ye Shenyi, Zhong Jiayuan and others in front of him with his beautiful eyes, and asked: "Your friend?"
"There are friends and there are enemies." Tang Bandit said with a smile: "Let's go to Phoenix Square."
"Well, the time is almost up. We won't be able to squeeze in for a while." Sheng Xinhuai urged.
Tang Bandit greeted Zhong Jiayuan and said, "Brother Zhong, I have to leave beforehand."
"Okay, okay." Zhong Jiayuan nodded repeatedly and said, "Go and do your work quickly. I'll let you know when the results are out."
"Good work."
"Brother Tang, you're welcome."
Seeing Bandit Tang leaving with the ridiculously beautiful woman Yan Shimeixing, Ye Shenyi asked aloud: "Who is this woman?"
"The daughter of the prime minister of wealth. She has a great heart."
Ye Shenyi frowned and asked aloud: "Didn't you say that he has a close relationship with the princess?"
"Yes." Zhong Jiayuan nodded, looking at the retreating figures of Tang Bandit and Sheng Xinhuai, he let out a heartfelt voice of admiration and said, "This is what I admire about him."
"What?"
"Oh, I mean." Zhong Jiayuan said with a smile: "It is such a blessing to have a confidante like the princess but a close relationship with the daughter of the Prime Minister of Finance, and Her Royal Highness the Princess and Miss Sheng's family are close friends. Most people can’t enjoy it.”
"Is that why you ruled him out as a suspect?"
"Mr. Ye, if you are a refugee from the old land, you have been given the opportunity to move to Xinxing because you saved the life of Her Royal Highness the Princess. After arriving at Xinxing, you will have the princess to take care of you, a great master as your teacher, and you will also be personally appointed as a palace by the king. Deputy Captain of the Guards"
Zhong Jiayuan looked at Ye Shenyi seriously and asked aloud: "Do you think it is necessary for such a person to harbor criminals and release assassins privately?"
"."
"If it were you, would you do such a thing? Ask yourself, if I could enjoy this honor, no matter what, I would never betray the royal family and get involved with a group of unworthy killers. He wants to what?"
"If it were me, I would naturally not be like this." Ye Shenyi said aloud: "Didn't you also see it? He did come out with two people."
"The dean called me specifically and asked me to pay close attention to this kid. When I saw you letting them go casually, I wanted to follow behind you to see where they would go next."
"Unfortunately, it was too late. They dispersed as soon as they entered the crowd and disappeared without a trace. I could only target him alone."
"I understand Mr. Ye's concerns and your thoughts." Zhong Jiayuan nodded and said loudly: "But have you ever thought about whether such a person has the ability to hack all the surveillance equipment in the alley? He Can you erase all the video footage?”
"His backer is Her Royal Highness the Princess, the daughter of the Prime Minister of Finance. Will Her Royal Highness and Miss Sheng help him do such a thing? Will the Grand Master help him do such a thing?"
"Obviously, the killer was organized, and their people had a clear division of labor. When he broke out, there were people behind him clearing their traces. This is something that a Tang bandit, an old refugee, cannot do."
"Moreover, we haven't yet been able to determine whether the person following him is a killer. Even if he is, what if he is deliberately following Tang Bandit and wants to use his identity to escape?"
"I always feel that this kid is not a good person." Ye Shenyi said aloud.
"Mr. Ye, we have to pay attention to evidence when we do things." Zhong Jiayuan said with a smile: "I have asked people to send those corpses back for inspection. As long as any clues are found on them, we can confirm the identity of the killer. If it was really Tang Bandit who did it, he wouldn't be able to escape."
"The search for the murderer is your Overwatch Council's business. I'm just here to help." Ye Shenyi said aloud: "You confirm the murderer, and I will help get him. Neither Tang Bandit nor Li Bandit has anything to do with me. Any relationship."
"Yes, I would like to thank Mr. Ye for his generous action." Zhong Jiayuan expressed his thanks.
"I'll go have tea nearby. If you need anything, contact me."
"Sir, walk slowly."
After Ye Shenyi left, the captain of the third team, Zhao Xizhi, asked: "Brother, is he really not suspicious of that Tang bandit?"
The smile on Zhong Jiayuan's face had long gone. He looked at his confidant and asked in a deep voice, "Do you think it's better for Bandit Tang to be suspected or not?"
Zhao Xizhi was stunned for a moment and said quickly: "It is better if there is no suspicion; it is better if there is no suspicion."
If Tang Fei is suspected, then they have to take action against him.
This will inevitably offend Her Royal Highness the Princess and Grandmaster Xuanyuan Mingjing, and now there is also the daughter of the Minister of Finance.
Although this is to be loyal to the country, why can't someone else do this?
Others can do it, but Zhong Jiayuan doesn't want to do it himself.
Besides, they had cleared Tang Fei's suspicion in the afternoon and refused to search his house.
If they determined that Tang Fei was indeed harboring a killer in the evening, then they would have committed the crime of dereliction of duty.
They didn't even go home during the New Year's Day, and they went out in the wind and snow for most of the night in order to catch the murderer and make great contributions.
If the person caught was Tang Fei, then not only did their five departments not have any credit, but I'm afraid that everyone from top to bottom would be invited to have tea by the Ministry of Internal Affairs to see if there were people in the group with Tang Fei and them.
Otherwise, why didn't you search Tang Fei's house?
After entering the Ministry of Internal Affairs, there was a stain on the file. Do you still want to get promoted and get a raise in the future?
Who would go against their own future?
Zhong Jiayuan doesn't know how to handle cases, but he knows how to be an official.
Sure enough, when Zhong Jiayuan asked this question, Zhao Xizhi instantly understood the key trick.
Tang Fei, who was easily let go in the afternoon and maintained a good relationship with the Fifth Division, was not suspected, which was the most favorable result for them.
Even if there was a suspicion, they had to find a way to help him clear the suspicion. If they confirmed Tang Fei's identity as a murderer because of the participation of the Sixth Division
They would not have a good harvest from the top to the bottom of the Fifth Division.
The director of the Fifth Division of Zhong Jiayuan could not be saved, so could he, the captain of the Third Team, still be saved? Which new leader would not promote his own people when he took office?
"Then what should we do now?" Zhao Xizhi asked aloud.
"Wait." Zhong Jiayuan said, "Wait for the inspection results to come out."
"Yes. I asked the brothers to strengthen their vigilance and eliminate all suspicious people."
Zhong Jiayuan patted Zhao Xizhi on the shoulder and said, "If you find suspicious people, you can also arrest a few. It's a big festival, and you have to give the brothers some credit. Let the masters above see that our Fifth Department is working diligently."
"Yes." Zhao Xizhi bowed and agreed.
Sheng Xinhuai hugged Tang Fei's arm, looked at Tang Fei's profile with bright eyes, and asked, "How is it? Am I here on time?"
"We agreed at nine o'clock, and you are late." Tang Fei said with a complaint.
In order to make his plan foolproof, Tang Fei specially called Sheng Xinhuai before dinner and invited him to go to the Empire Square to participate in the New Year's Eve event in the evening.
One is to artificially create an illusion that I am busy with dating and have no time to care about your kind of shit, and those things have nothing to do with me.
In addition, with the blessing of the identity of the daughter of the Minister of Wealth, even if there are some minor problems, everyone will be more tolerant for the sake of the Minister of Wealth.
Zhong Jiayuan obviously knew Sheng Xinhuai. He was extremely respectful to Sheng Xinhuai just now. He knew that behind him stood not only the Princess and the Grand Master, but also the Minister of Wealth.
Tang Fei, you are really a white-faced man who does whatever it takes.
Tang Fei himself began to despise himself.
"Oh, you still have the nerve to blame me?" Sheng Xinhuai said unhappily: "Look at how many people are on the road, the car can't get out at all."
"I don't have a flying car. Besides, even if I have a flying car, I'm afraid I can't find a parking lot today. I walked here step by step."
Tang Fei looked at Sheng Xinhuai's slightly red cheeks and the fine beads of sweat on her forehead, knowing that this was indeed a bit embarrassing for this rich lady.
Sheng Xinhuai didn't know how to practice. It would take more than ten miles to walk from her home to Phoenix Square.
It was really not an easy task with strong wind and heavy snow.
"Thank you for your hard work, Teacher Sheng." Tang Fei said aloud.
"What?" Sheng Xinhuai raised her pretty face slightly and asked in a soft and magnetic voice: "Are you moved?"
"I dare not move."
Sheng Xinhuai rolled his eyes and cursed: "Coward."
"."
Seeing Tang Fei speechless, Sheng Xinhuai giggled.
After laughing for a while, Sheng Xinhuai asked: "Why did the people from the Supervisory Commission find you?"
"Do you know them?" Tang Fei asked curiously.
"I'm not an idiot. They are wearing the uniforms of the Supervisory Commission. Besides, Zhong Jiayuan is also a young hero in Phoenix City. He comes from the royal family and works in a powerful department like the Supervisory Commission. Naturally, there will be many opportunities to show up."
"They suspect that I am harboring a murderer." Tang Fei said.
"Murderer?" Sheng Xinhuai's eyes became brighter and brighter, and he seemed to be very interested in this topic. He asked, "What murderer? Who was killed?"
"It's the murder case that has been making a lot of noise in Phoenix City recently." Tang Fei looked aggrieved and said angrily, "When they were chasing the killer, he escaped. Then they suspected that the killer was seriously injured and fell into the area where we live."
"This afternoon, the people from the Supervisory Office searched every house. I invited them to go into the house to check, but they didn't want to. In the evening, they said that I brought the killer out."
"Am I sick? Why would I harbor a killer? Xiaopang and I just came to Xinxing. We are unfamiliar with the place and only know a few people. Why would I shelter a killer?"
"That's right." Sheng Xinhuai also echoed Tang Fei's words and said, "There must be some misunderstanding in the middle."
"Misunderstanding? Fortunately, they didn't suspect that Xiaopang and I were the murderers." Tang Fei said in a feigned indignation.
Sheng Xinhuai looked at Tang Fei thoughtfully and said, "You are very likely to do such a thing."
"Xiaopang is so kind that he can't even kill a chicken. If I were a spy from the Supervisory Council, I would be the first to rule him out."
"."
Tang Fei didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
Sheng Xinhuai didn't see the scene where Xiaopang was holding a skull hammer and smashing people's heads. If she had seen it, she would never have such an idea.
"What's that expression on your face?" Sheng Xinhuai saw Tang Fei's strange expression and asked, "What are you laughing at?"
"You know Xiaopang well." Tang Fei said.
"Of course." Sheng Xinhuai looked proud and said, "Xiaopang is like a bottle of pure water, you can see through it at a glance."
"What about me?" Tang Fei asked.
"You are like Coke. It's full of gas when you take a sip."
"."
It was still early before the midnight New Year's Eve event, so Tang Fei and Sheng Xinhuai found a cafe on the roadside to drink coffee.
Sheng Xinhuai looked at Tang Fei and asked in confusion: "Where is Xiaopang? Didn't we say we'll celebrate the New Year together tonight?"
"Xiaopang said he's not interested in this kind of activity and said he's going back to watch a movie." Tang Fei took a sip of coffee and answered.
Sheng Xinhuai looked at Tang Fei with a playful look and asked: "You don't have any bad intentions towards me, do you?"
"How is that possible?" Tang Fei immediately denied.
"Look, on such an important day, you invited me to celebrate the New Year together, and sent Xiaopang away who was inseparable from you. You must think this light bulb is too dazzling, right?"
Sheng Xinhuai poked the back of Tang Fei's hand with a finger and said: "Tell me, where is the hotel booked? Let me see if it's the one I like?"
"Which one do you like?" Tang Fei asked.
"Okay, Tang Fei, you rogue, I just gave it a try, but I didn't expect you to really have a dirty mind towards me. How can you be worthy of Xiuxue? How can you be worthy of her infatuation with you?"
"I just want to ask. You can live with Fenghuang in the future." Tang Fei said seriously.
"."
This time it was Sheng Xinhuai's turn to be overwhelmed, and he gritted his teeth and said: "Tang Fei, you are such a heartless person. I ran out in the middle of the night to accompany you to celebrate the New Year."
"Then what do you say we should do?" Tang Fei asked.
Sheng Xinhuai was stunned for a moment, and then he chuckled.
At 11:50, Tang Fei and Sheng Xinhuai came out of the cafe.
The Empire Square was already crowded with people, so dense that you couldn't see the end at a glance.
"There are so many people." Tang Fei said with a sigh.
This was his first time to participate in a New Year's Eve event, and it was also the first time he saw so many people gathered together.
Everyone was in high spirits, with a cheerful atmosphere on their faces, which was completely different from the color atmosphere on the old soil.
"The New Year's Eve event was not held at the Imperial Square before, but at the Taiji Square in the west city," Sheng Xinhuai explained, "Later, because of something, the official moved the New Year's Eve event to the Imperial Square."
Tang Fei's heart sank slightly, and he subconsciously felt that this matter had something to do with him, but his face remained calm and he asked, "Why?"
"At that time, a great general committed treason. In order to deter the rebels, the empire executed the general's family at the stake in this square."
"Later, all the traitors were caught and dragged to the square to be beheaded. After a long time, the Imperial Square was filled with gloom, and some people said that they saw a headless black shadow in military uniform wandering in the square."
"For a long time, During this time, no one dared to approach the Imperial Square. The Imperial Square became an empty square."
"Later, the government felt that this was not acceptable. How could there be no people in such a good location, the core area of the city? It happened that the Spring Festival was coming, so the government moved the New Year's Eve activities here."
"This trick really worked. After being rushed by the huge flow of people, everyone felt that the Imperial Square was just so-so, not as terrible as the legend said."
"More and more people, more and more businesses, so the Imperial Square became lively and prosperous again."
Sheng Xinhuai was interested in telling that dark history, but he didn't notice that the smiling Tang Fei had already pierced his fingers into his flesh.
He remembered the video he had seen before. In the huge cage, the flames were raging, and the middle-aged couple desperately moved closer to each other, hugging the little baby tightly in their arms.
The child who was burned to death should have been himself.
