Butterfly Net【38】
The interrogation of He Cheng finally kicked off today.
Chu Xingyun washed his face in the bathroom, and his familiar mood brought him back to the hospital on the day he was sent to the emergency room to live and die. He was nervous outside the door and waited anxiously.
He kept asking about the truth about He Cheng, which may be revealed today, is also the truth that He Cheng has been hiding from him. He Cheng is like his guide. Although he does not have the weapon to cut the mountain and lead the way, he has the courage and courage to move forward. He Cheng led him all the way through the sea of swords and fires, bypassing the trap of Wuwu, and came to the deep forest where fires are on all sides, and asked him the last time: "Are you sure you want to go in?"
Yes, Chu Xingyun is very sure that he will step into the forest fire. As long as he nods, He Cheng, who cuts the way out for him, will step into the jungle with him with the dangers and fires.
He understood that everything He Cheng had done so far was for him, and He Cheng became an uprisinger in order to stand with him. If he was uprising towards power, then He Cheng was uprising against himself. He was not great, because even if the uprising failed, there was nothing to lose. However, He Cheng was different from him. He Cheng had the power, wealth, and status representing a class. Whenever their uprising failed, the only one who was infringed was He Cheng.
He Cheng was not unexpected to these things. On the contrary, Chu Xingyun felt that he was too clear. He Cheng had always had an account in his heart. For more than ten years, he had always drawn and calculated the balance of both sides in his mind, and measured the profit and loss in the account book. One end was Chu Xingyun and the other end was everything he had. Over the years, he continued to increase weight to the balance and one end, but he could not shake the weight of Chu Xingyun in his heart. On one side was as heavy as Mount Tai and as light as a feather. The one he leaned towards was always directed at Chu Xingyun.
Chu Xingyun looked at his face in the bathroom mirror, trying to find something special on his face, so special that He Cheng could not hesitate to put all his chips on him, and even if he was in a desperate situation with nothing, he would never retreat.
But he found that he was nothing special. At best, he was a little bit pleasing to the eye, but he was never appreciated. Even Yang Shu couldn't stand with him. It can be seen that there was no shining point in his personality that could attract people to stay with him forever. He was stubborn and tough, and did not know how to advance or retreat. He always put himself in a life-threatening danger. Apart from the uncommon persistence and courage that were not praised, he really didn't know what he liked.
Why did He Cheng like him...
Perhaps the three people in the living room saw that he hadn't come out for a long time, so Yang Kaitai called him: "Captain, are you okay?"
Chu Xingyun turned off the water-flowing faucet, wiped his wet hands casually on his body, and walked out of the bathroom and returned to the living room.
He Cheng changed his seat and sat on a single sofa, with Yang Kaitai and Fu Yi sitting on the sofas on both sides of his side.
He Cheng raised his legs and asked him, "What are you doing inside?"
Chu Xingyun ignored him, found a place closest to Yang Kaitai, sat down next to him, looked at Fu Yi on the opposite side and asked, "Has it started?"
Fu Yi said: "You'd better ask."
In front of Chu Xingyun, he always felt like a mistress came into the room and questioned the main room. He was uncomfortable and embarrassed everywhere.
There was a glass of white water in front of He Cheng. Chu Xingyun picked it up and took a few sips, then put the cup and watched He Cheng take the center of the question: "Who is the person behind Xia Xinghan?"
He Cheng was prepared and fulfilled his promise to Chu Xingyun at the hospital that day - as long as you have the ability to find out the end, I will tell you what I know.
So he replied, "It should be, Jiang Zhaonan."
Although Chu Xingyun had a premonition when he heard Jiang Zhaonan's name, he still couldn't help but feel sad for a moment. The power behind Jiang Zhaonan was too great, almost comparable to the He family. Jiang Zhaonan's father is still in the first-level leadership team of the Party and the country, and the family's political achievements are no less than that of the He family for more than 40 years.
"Should you? Don't you confirm?"
He Cheng picked up the cup he had put down, looked at the slightly ill water marks in the cup, and said, "I just made speculation like you, and I can't confirm it."
Chu Xingyun stared at him: "Then why do you suspect it is Jiang Zhaonan?"
He Cheng leaned back slightly into the back of the chair. Because there was still injuries behind him, he didn't dare to use force. His eyes drooped and said lightly: "Didn't you ask me why Sun Shibin has my fingerprints? I told you that I had seen him at the dinner table. Now I can tell you that it was in the Jiangzhaonan team."
I see--
Chu Xingyun: "Who else?"
He Cheng raised his eyes and said lazily, "Hmm?"
Chu Xingyun's eyes suddenly became a little weird and intriguing, and asked, "Who else is there at that wine party?"
He Cheng twitched his lips, avoided his eyes and adjusted his sitting position. He coughed low under his gaze, and said without any confidence: "Xia Xinghan."
Chu Xingyun nodded and smiled, "So you took Xia Xinghan away, so he had the chance to take your fingerprint away. It was Xia Xinghan who actually took your fingerprint away, not Sun Shibin, right?"
He Cheng finally realized what it felt like to be questioned by a criminal policeman with sharp insight. He could not understand it before, but because he was open-minded. Now he is not open-minded at all, and even feels guilty, so he naturally fell to Chu Xingyun's power and drink.
"Actually I don't-"
Chu Xingyun suddenly felt very confident, so he lay back into the back of the chair, raised his arm to put it on the back of the sofa, and the sitting posture of the Big Horse Golden Knife was like a bandit leader, interrupting him as if unheard of: "Is Sun Shibin from Jiang Zhaonan?"
He Cheng was in the first place, and he acted intentionally and answered quickly: "I don't know this. I only know that Sun Shibin is the account manager of China Merchants Bank, Jiang Zhaonan's father is the major shareholder of China Merchants Bank. Jiang Zhaonan met with Sun Shibin privately. They must have a connection, and they cannot be clearly related."
"You mean that the 380 million yuan from unknown origin is Jiang Zhaonan's money?"
He Cheng smiled disdainfully, rubbed his thumb gently with his cup wall, and said, "He doesn't have that much money, I'll tell you a secret."
Seeing that he saw something unusual in his eyes, Chu Xingyun hurriedly sat down: "What secret news?"
He Cheng said: "The Jiang family is a big business, but Jiang Zhaonan has no participation in politics or business. Instead, he is an idle young master. Even Zou Yuheng is richer and more powerful than him. Although his name is the most famous, in our circle, everyone knows that he is the poorest one. Until now, he only has the assets in his hands in the Green Garden Resort in the northern suburbs. Not to mention more than 300 million, he can't even get three million."
Chu Xingyun looked at him: "It's not his money, that's it?"
He Cheng nodded and said, "It's their family's money."
Chu Xingyun suddenly widened his eyes: "He and Sun Shibin transfer his family's money?"
“You can use ‘steal’.”
He Cheng smiled slightly, his tone full of mockery and indifference: "He has a criminal record. Four years ago, he secretly sold two summer villas in Hainan and used the money to buy the rose manor that Zou Yuheng was building on Ludan Mountain. Although the rose manor belongs to Zou Yuheng in name, everyone insiders know that the real owner of the rose manor is him."
Rose Manor?
Chu Xingyun temporarily ignored the transactions between these young men and found the key clues: "Is the rose manor his?"
"yes."
"He is the only one who knows who attends the banquet on May 6th?"
He Cheng's eyes were filled with a faint cold star, and he said lightly: "What did you guess?"
Chu Xingyun looked at his eyes and suddenly felt nervous. The curtain was pulled apart layer by layer, and the devil who was controlling the puppet hiding behind the scenes finally showed the tip of the iceberg.
Before expressing his guess, Chu Xingyun asked a crucial question: "What's going on with that mask?"
He Cheng lowered his eyes and gently rubbed the mouth of the glass cup held in his palm. The thin wall of the cup looked like a blade.
His fingertips wandered on the blade twice, and finally stopped at the place where Chu Xingyun's lips touched just now, and said in a deep voice: "It was given to me by Jiang Zhaonan."
"Give it to you?"
"Um."
Chu Xingyun suddenly stopped talking. He Cheng had thought about how to defend himself, but he was empty-handed.
Before Chu Xingyun could ask questions for a long time, he looked up and saw that the place where Chu Xingyun had just sat was empty.
Today, the sun is shining and the air is dry. The corridor under the eaves of the door are still full of crabapple flowers. Mansion No. 1 has been idle for a long time, and only Jiang Ma is left behind. In order to make up for the empty courtyard, the courtyard is full of flowers, with lush flowers and rich fragrance, as if it is an isolated quiet place. The tricks and troubles that wander in the dark night are diluted by the sun and dispersed by the fragrance of flowers. It seems that just standing in the corridor can make you feel purified for a moment.
In the yard, Jiang Ma and Liu Meng were cleaning up a hibiscus tree. The vine rose beside the wall was growing too vigorously and had already covered the two adjacent walls. Many flower vines were looking for support to climb on by themselves. A hibiscus flower tree in the southwest corner became the best choice. The flower vines winded up around the trunk, and in a blink of an eye it swallowed the trunk and attacked the flower branches.
Without manual intervention, the hibiscus tree would be covered with this vine with vigorous vitality, just like a person being pinched to his throat and could only become a breeding ground for similar breeding. With the help of Liu Meng, Jiang Ma planted a wooden rack next to the hibiscus tree, and carefully grafted the flower vines that were climbing onto the wooden rack. At the same time, she built a short fence for the hibiscus tree to prevent it from becoming the target of the rose attack in the future.
Chu Xingyun walked under the eaves of the door and stood in the corridor. The fragrance of crabapple flowers suddenly filled his trousers. He leaned on the door and shouted Liu Meng, asking him to plant the wooden frame a little harder. This kid had never done such a job at first sight. The soil was loose and the wind in the yard was shaking.
He Cheng walked to him, leaned against the other door frame, and said to him: "You can continue asking, I will tell you everything."
Chu Xingyun pulled his eyes back from the yard and placed them on several pots of begonia under the corridor. His eyes surging and trembling as the flowers surging, and he said in a deep voice: "I need you to assure me that there is no deeper relationship between you and Jiang Zhaonan."
He Cheng understood that Chu Xingyun had designated Jiang Zhaonan as the suspect of Butterfly Duke. He was worried that he would become the hibiscus tree, and be attacked by the rose like a sky net. If he pulled out the rose, could he protect himself safely, or would he be torn and hooked up by the rose vines covered with poisonous stings, paying a more tragic price.
Chu Xingyun was worried about him, and he was also Chu Xingyun's only concern in the Jiangzhaonan case.
"You are trying to ask, why do I hide it from you even though I know he is the "Duke of Butterfly", and don't expose it?"
Chu Xingyun let out a deep breath and said, "Why?"
He Cheng looked at his side face, which was obviously worried and worried, but he pretended to be calm and said, "I don't know."
Chu Xingyun turned his head and stared at him, his eyes deeper and puzzled.
He Cheng smiled slightly and said without any haste: "I do not know what his other identity is. As for that mask, if Xia Xinghan doesn't steal it and show it to me again, I will forget the existence of that mask. The mask was given to me by Jiang Zhaonan. It was not until a few days ago that I realized that the mask is not a gift, nor is it a symbol of identity for me, but an invitation letter."
“What invitation letter?”
"Invite me to join them and share the invitation to identity."
"them?"
He Cheng looked at him and said firmly: "I suspect that the Butterfly Duke is a group."
It’s not important to Chu Xingyun now. At this moment, he is concerned about one thing, “Are you involved?”
He Cheng:......
After saying so much, this guy is still stubborn.
He Cheng said coldly: "If I participate, will you help you destroy myself?"
Chu Xingyun looked at him with straight and sharp eyes: "It's possible."
