Chapter 278: Trapped in a cocoon (Part )
Cui Jian finally saw the so-called surveillance video, and it can be seen that Yun Xinyue's birthday party was very luxurious. The surveillance was outdoor side surveillance, with a large lawn in front of the Yun family and some flowers and plants planted on the side.
The banquet was an outdoor buffet, with a few tables and chairs cleverly arranged on the side, suitable for quiet conversation.
There are not many people in the picture. The main person, Father Lin, appears first. He is wearing work clothes and uses a piece of cloth to pad the ground. He sits on it and uses tools to dig up the soil at the roots of the bushes. After a minute, he moves forward half a meter and continues to work. The area where he is is not the banquet area, but it is only separated from the banquet area by two bushes.
A few minutes later, Jin Changqing and Lin Hai appeared on the screen, each holding a drink, and walked to a deserted place. Jin Changqing obviously saw the surveillance camera, and blocked the surveillance camera with his back to talk to Lin Hai. The surveillance camera was about 30 meters away, and the banquet on the left was noisy, so the sound of their conversation could not be heard.
The two talked for about two minutes, and Jin Changqing looked at Lin's father's position. Lin's father stood up and talked to the two guests. Lin Hai raised his hand to let the waiter with drinks come over. Jin Changqing handed his drink to Lin Hai, and took a drink and handed it to Lin's father. The three seemed to be talking happily, and all three had smiles on their faces. Half a minute later, Lin Hai and Jin Changqing left, and Lin's father continued to sit and work.
Four minutes later, a waiter climbed over the bushes to check on Lin's father, then stood up and called for help, and soon some people arrived, followed by emergency personnel and an ambulance.
After watching the video, the reporters asked: "Your father's death does not seem to have a direct relationship with them? I didn't see them poisoning him."
Lin Cai said, "The first suspicious point: One hour after my father died, I was urgently dispatched to deliver medicine to an area without communication signals. The second suspicious point: Although cremation is common in South Korea, my father has repeatedly asked for burial. The Yun family cremated my father when they could not contact me. The third suspicious point: The cause of death was myocardial infarction, but it did not say what caused the myocardial infarction."
The reporter was still a little unconvinced: "In my opinion, only the first doubt is tenable."
Lin Cai took out a laptop computer placed on the side and took out a USB flash drive from his pocket: "The fourth suspicious point is that this is the picture after the waiter found that my father was abnormal."
The surveillance time was around the time when Lin's father collapsed on the day of the banquet. The video was shot near the main entrance, about 80 meters away from Lin's father, where there were many people. At first the scene was very harmonious, then there was a commotion, everyone looked in the direction of Lin's father, and a man who looked like a doctor ran past Jin Changqing and Lin Hai.
Jin Changqing and Lin Hai looked at the commotion together, glanced at each other, smiled meaningfully, clinked their glasses, drank the drinks in their glasses, turned around and walked slowly away from the surveillance screen in the opposite direction of the commotion.
Given the foreshadowing, it now seemed odd that they were clearly celebrating something unspeakable.
Cui Jian thought of Yu Ming. What Yu Ming wanted to steal was probably not the video of Lin's father's death in the garden, but the video of Jin Changqing and Lin Hai taken when Lin's father died.
There is no evidence, but some things do not need evidence, the facial expressions and actions are too obvious. Of course, the other party can definitely come up with a logical explanation, but Lin Cai and some netizens will not believe it.
Lin Cai had done everything he wanted to do, and next came the old-fashioned requests: I wanted a car and no following, otherwise I would kill the hostages.
The lackey Cui Jian went to check the vehicle, but was arrested by the commander and his men. The commander understood and asked Cui Jian to check the vehicle, so that he could dismantle the locator without leaving anything.
Cui Jian wanted to talk to the commander about the law, but Yun Xueshan intervened: "I am your employer."
Cui Jian: "But the purpose of hiring me is..."
Yun Xueshan said, "Don't worry about what I hired you for. Give me your account number and I'll transfer the payment to you and end the employment relationship."
Cui Jian pulled up a photo of his bank card and asked, "Will there be a helicopter to send it back?"
"No." Yun Xueshan started transferring money.
Cui Jian said: "Please indicate that it is labor income and the taxes payable have been paid."
Duanmu looked at Cui Jian: Have I paid the tax? So you got 200 million after tax, and I got 100 million before tax, so where did the tax I paid go?
Yun Xueshan raised his head and gave Cui Jian a deep look: "I don't understand why Yun Xuesong and Xueying think so highly of you?"
Cui Jian replied: "Not everyone has the same vision as them."
Yun Xueshan said nothing more and completed the transfer as Cui Jian requested. Cui Jian turned around and saw Duanmu looking at him, and said, "Let's go."
Duanmu looked up: "Transfer my share to me, I have arranged a car for you downstairs." Forget it, just pretend you don't know, lest someone change the currency unit.
Cui Jian transferred 40 yuan to Duanmu according to the % tax rate, returned the cameras and other equipment to the police, and took the elevator downstairs. After waiting at the door for a while, a blue luxury car stopped beside Cui Jian. Cui Jian looked down and saw Hai Lan, smiled, opened the car door and got in: "Are you okay?"
Hai Lan said: "Your concern is a little delayed."
Cui Jian smiled awkwardly and fastened his seat belt.
At this time, Duanmu walked out of the elevator on the first floor and made a phone call: "I know he didn't kill him. If he cooperates with us, he can help clear his suspicion. If he doesn't cooperate with us, we will add fuel to the fire... The captain's target is the cemetery... Haha, there is no one behind him. The police have not yet formed a special investigation team for the cemetery. Everything shows that the weapons in the cemetery are controllable... Rather than saying that Sanqin used the cemetery, it is better to say that the cemetery controlled Sanqin's activities in Hancheng."
Duanmu: "The only thing that is uncertain now is whether the Yun family has anything to do with this matter."
Duanmu quickly ended the call, got into a car, and continued to make calls: "Tell Qi Sha that we will find a way to help them collect a batch of weapons in the near future. Mainly light weapons... Ask them to compile a list of delivery locations for you. As for when to deliver the goods, we will contact you then."
Duanmu: "The next target is Target No. 23. He will be participating in the auction of Hancheng Happiness Company next month. As usual, we will kidnap him first and force him to help the imposter take over his assets, and then hand him over to Qi Sha. Please help me keep an eye on Qi Sha, so that they don't get into an embarrassing situation where they kill No. 23 before we take action."
Duanmu hung up the phone and continued to make calls: "Regarding the assets separated from Xue Bing, secrecy and safety are the top priorities. We should deal with them as soon as possible on this basis. It's not a lot of money, and it's not worth our time. Help me keep an eye on the Paris Wanderers. We may need them to deliver a batch of arms in the near future. Don't make any more mistakes."
Duanmu hung up the phone again and made another call: "I am Tianxia. A scandal broke out in South Korea today. I hope you can do your best to dig out the inside story."
It was another new call, Duanmu asked: "Is everything going well with Jiro in Kyoto? Very good, very good. Don't worry, the time is not ripe yet."
After making all the calls, Duanmu leaned back in his chair with his phone in hand, feeling that life was particularly fulfilling as a troublemaker.
……
Lin Cai's case is not over yet. Shortly after Cui Jian left, the police played the card of his girlfriend Rong Xiu, which was a bit difficult for Lin Cai to resist. The police psychologist came to a conclusion through the previous conversation between Lin Cai and Cui Jian that Lin Cai cared about Rong Xiu very much. As long as Rong Xiu was placed on the 37th floor, Lin Cai would not dare to detonate the bomb.
Rongxiu, a silly girl, is not as cunning as Cui Jian. Seeing Lin Cai holding hostages with a bomb, she wanted to replace Lin Cai and let herself die with this group of people. The two of them acted out inside and outside the law firm. You go. I won't go. You turn yourself in and I'll wait for you. No, you go, don't worry about me, I don't love you anymore. But I love you, Oppa, don't leave me.
Lin Cai's behavior of lowering intelligence made the commander feel bored. Suddenly, the high-end game turned into a game of house. Everything was caused by Lin Cai's lack of emotional control, which exposed his silly love for Rong Xiu. Rong Xiu's love was even more silly. She only had Lin Cai in her eyes. If she had a clear mind, she would not be so passive. In other words, the love between the two sides was only a flash in the pan and did not bear good results.
After half an hour of struggling, Lin Cai finally opened the door and hugged Rong Xiu tightly. The two lovers burst into tears. And then there was nothing else. Nothing was as good as his sister Rong Xiu. For her, Lin Cai could even give up his own life.
Two hours later, while netizens were discussing it heatedly and countless reporters were making appointments to interview the two suspects, the real culprit surrendered to the police. This person was a nanny of the Yun family. In the spirit of destroying the love that could not be obtained, she poisoned and killed Lin's father. When the nanny surrendered, she also brought the unused poison and mobile phone chat records. She hinted and explicitly expressed her love to Lin's father, but Lin's father prevaricated by saying that he was not considering it for the time being.
A new witness appeared. A bodyguard witnessed the entanglement between the nanny and Lin's father on the morning of the incident. The content of the argument was roughly, I love you. I don't love you. I don't need you to love me, I just need me to love you. Fuck you, get out of here. Finally, Lin's father shook off the nanny. The nanny looked at Lin's father's back and said to herself viciously: I must kill you.
Since the kidnappers did not ask the hostages' families to hire Cui Jian afterwards, the incident had almost no impact on Cui Jian.
Ten days had passed since Lin Cai's case, and the company was still closed for rectification. As an employee, Cui Jian was investigated by the relevant department because the number of casualties caused during his work was a little high. However, the police had already concluded the investigation, and the investigation team was just going through the motions. Cui Jian casually explained it away as luck.
Early in the morning of the eleventh day, Cui Jian received a call from Shengzi: "The Suo Yi Ke has prepared a batch of arms. The arms will first appear in Hancheng, and you and I will select the weapons and equipment. The remaining arms will be sent to other countries through its own channels. The Sun, Wood, and Water will arrive in Hancheng before tomorrow morning. They will support us under the dispatch of the Two-Headed Dog."
Cui Jian asked, "What happens after Hancheng?"
Shengzi replied: "The raincoats will transport the remaining weapons and equipment to India, then Paris and other places."
Cui Jian asked: "Where did the raincoat man get the weapons and equipment from? They would have arrived in South Korea first. Could they be Russian weapons?"
Shengzi replied: "There are AK-45 rifles, but they are not Russian-made. Yes, why did they start with Korea?"
Cui Jian thought for a while and said, "It may be a trick. I will handle it tomorrow, so you don't need to show up for the time being. Also, is the safe house ready? We can't store these weapons in Xifeng Mountain or my house, right?"
Shengzi replied: "I received a sum of cash five days ago, and I used it to pay the down payment for a commercial apartment in Hanxiao Community."
Cui Jian asked: "What about the ashes room?" The ashes room is a place where the ashes of ancestors are placed. Some people go to the ashes room to worship their ancestors on the anniversary of their death or during the Qingming Festival. Some romantic people will also go to the ashes room to have a candlelight dinner on special days such as Valentine's Day.
Hanxiao Community is located in the western suburbs, about 15 kilometers away from Xifeng Mountain and 7 kilometers away from the Xijiao Crematorium. It is a community with 5 buildings surrounded by mountains. The community has property management, water and electricity. The difference from other communities is that there are basically no living people here. The name of the community, Hanxiao, has already explained the intention of the developer.
Shengzi is a poor woman who lost her fiancé, so she has been going to Hanxiao Community more frequently in recent years. The 3th floor of Building 705 in Hanxiao Community that she bought is the only safe house at present.
Shengzi replied: “That’s right.”
Cui Jian asked: "Down payment?"
Shengzi said helplessly: "Yes, we may have to raise the mortgage ourselves by then."
Unable to complain, and not wanting to complain, Cui Jian asked, "It's been a while since the incident with Bing Ci. Is there any news from them?"
Shengzi said: "Except for Ellie being suspended, there is no change. The Ice Thorn's business in Korea is being managed by the former deputy director."
Cui Jian said: "It's too peaceful."
Shengzi answered, "Yes, so the housekeeper asked us to be vigilant when we come into contact with the Raincoat Guest this time. In addition, we found that the Target No. 23 who has been hiding has made some unusual moves. The investment team of Target No. 23 that we are monitoring is selling some of his assets for him. According to our information, Target No. 23 still has a lot of funds on hand, so there is no need to sell high-quality assets at this time. Therefore, we have listed Target No. 23 as a key target of attention."
Cui Jian: "OK, I have a call, is there anything else you need?"
"No."
Cui Jian hung up the phone and called Duanmu: "Long time no see." The day after returning from Busan, Duanmu returned to his hometown in North America.
Duanmu got straight to the point: "I was being monitored, and someone broke into my study."
Duanmu had just returned to Hancheng three hours ago. Coming out of the airport, he got into the car driven by his housekeeper. Along the way, he felt that someone was following and monitoring him, but there was no evidence. After returning home, Duanmu was sure that someone had entered his study, which was a restricted area, and even the housekeepers were not allowed to enter.
Cui Jian asked: "Is there anything shameful in your study?"
Duanmu replied: "There is a pistol and a submachine gun in the safe, packaged, with other people's fingerprints on them. I will only use them when I need them." Even if the police found the pistol with a search warrant, Duanmu could say that it was a frame-up because there were no his fingerprints on the gun, only other people's fingerprints, which meant that the person who touched the gun last was not him.
If you don’t understand some rules now, you can’t get along in this circle.
Cui Jian asked: "Anything else?"
Duanmu said: "There is also a blank satellite phone for emergency communication, which is not in use at present. Cui Jian, I feel that they are not just tracking and monitoring me."
Cui Jian asked: "Want to kill you?"
Duanmu thought for a while and said, "It shouldn't be. It feels more like they want to kidnap me."
Cui Jian asked again: "Professionals?"
Duanmu replied: "Yes."
Cui Jian asked: "Could it be a northern kite or a blackbird?"
Duanmu replied: "Not sure. I guess there are employees in the villa who have been infiltrated by the other party. I will treat you to lunch, and you can help me observe objectively to determine whether I am just being overly sensitive or I have really become someone's target."
Cui Jian continued to ask: "Don't you have a special forces team?"
Duanmu said: "Do you think I'm really traveling? Aren't I leading a team to do some work? They stayed abroad to handle some follow-up work."
Cui Jian readily agreed: "I want to eat Hunan cuisine."
“What is Hunan cuisine?”
"If you don't understand, search it."
So Duanmu asked someone to go to the Hunan restaurant to hire a chef to cook. Duanmu was very good in this regard, asking for help from others and being very humble.
