Chapter 477 Speculation

Unfolding the paper, Bai Mengfei saw a name and a sentence written on it: "Lian Zheng, you'll never guess where those things are!"

“It seems that the dispute in this case stems from the ‘batch of things’ he mentioned,” Bai Mengfei speculated. “That Lian Zheng is very likely involved in the sale of ‘flour’.”

Xiang Yuntian nodded in agreement and said, "That's right! So let's take this package back for testing first, and then make further plans based on the test results."

"Okay." Bai Mengfei nodded in agreement.

So the three of them took the packet of white powder and the paper with writing on it back to the police station.

Through handwriting analysis, Bai Mengfei discovered that the handwriting on the paper was indeed from the deceased Ye Feng.

After chemical testing, Bai Mengfei confirmed that the package contained heroin.

This evidence is sufficient to cross-examine Lian Zheng. Although Ye Feng has passed away, this is undoubtedly crucial physical evidence.

However, this is far from enough. Ideally, the drugs should be caught red-handed, meaning that drugs should be found in Lian Zheng's home.

Wang Tian also put forward this view, but Xiang Yuntian decisively rejected it.

Xiang Yuntian said, "If I were Lian Zheng, I would never hide drugs at home."

Bai Mengfei suddenly thought, "Is it possible that it's hidden in his old house? That's very likely. You know, he used torture on the two dead people there, and Ye Feng was also there at the time. So I think that old house is the most suspicious place. Ye Feng may have hidden those things in a place that Lian Zheng would never have thought of."

“But we have already thoroughly inspected the old house,” Xiang Yuntian said.

Bai Mengfei gently shook her head and said seriously, "No, there is one place we haven't investigated yet."

Xiang Yuntian asked in surprise, "Where?"

"We haven't pried them open to inspect them yet, those red bricks."

Wang Tian exclaimed in surprise, "No way? You're planning to pry up the red bricks from his old house? If he finds out, that'll be terrible!"

"There's no other way, we have to do it this way." Bai Mengfei said helplessly. "Anyway, Captain Zhao said before that we should investigate freely and he would take responsibility if anything went wrong."

Xiang Yuntian smiled to himself and agreed, "Special methods and means are indeed necessary during special times."

At three o'clock in the morning, the three of them finally decided to set off for the old house.

However, as soon as she got into the car, Wang Tian thought of another question and said, "By the way! Why didn't Ye Feng testify against Lian Zheng before he died? Don't you think that's strange? His daughter and son-in-law are both dead, and he should have sensed that he was in danger. So why didn't he come to the police station to report Lian Zheng?"

“That makes sense.” Xiang Yuntian lowered his head, frowning as he fell into deep thought.

After thinking for a moment, Bai Mengfei said, "Perhaps there are some inconveniences, or perhaps Ye Feng himself doesn't completely trust the police."

Wang Tian then asked, "Then why do you think Ye Feng didn't destroy those things? Didn't he want to 'better to die than live in dishonor'?"

“He’s not as foolish as you,” Bai Mengfei smiled slightly. “If we destroy those things, what evidence will we have to prosecute Lian Zheng?”

“That makes sense,” Wang Tian agreed with Bai Mengfei’s idea.

Bai Mengfei smiled slightly and said to Wang Tian, ​​"Silly girl, don't think so much. What we need to do now is go to Lian Zheng's old house and investigate carefully to see if those things are really hidden there as we suspected."

As she spoke, this scene flashed through Bai Mengfei's mind.

Under Lian Zheng's threats, Ye Feng refused to reveal the whereabouts of the goods, even at the cost of his life. He simply took Lian Zheng back to the old house and told him, "You will never know where those goods are!"

As soon as the car started moving, Bai Mengfei quickly banished the thought from her mind.

When the three arrived at Lian Zheng's old house, it was already past four in the morning, almost five. Since this was a secret investigation, someone needed to keep watch outside.

Bai Mengfei said to Wang Tian, ​​"You're a criminal investigator, so stay outside and keep watch. If anything happens, remember to let us know."

"This..." Wang Tian hesitated for a moment, but still nodded silently and agreed.

Afterwards, Bai Mengfei and Xiang Yuntian entered the old house and began their inspection.

After entering the old house, the two followed their plan and used tools to examine the red bricks, even prying open some that looked suspicious.

Unfortunately, they hadn't found anything by seven in the morning.

Wang Tian got bored waiting outside, so she ran into the old house.

When Bai Mengfei saw her suddenly come in, she thought something had happened and quickly asked, "Why did you suddenly run in?"

"I've come to see if you've found any clues," Wang Tian said.

Bai Mengfei shook her head helplessly, picked up her tools, stood up, and said regretfully, "We haven't found anything yet."

As she was talking, a drop of water landed on her face. She looked up and saw that the roof tiles were leaking. She suddenly realized: Logically speaking, such a sturdy old house shouldn't have leaking tiles.

Therefore, she suspected that there was something wrong with the roof tiles.

However, the roof was too high, and some tall tools were needed to remove the rubble.

The old house is probably five or six meters high; even with a ladder, it would be difficult to reach it. Just as she was pondering this, Xiang Yuntian understood what she was thinking, walked over, and smiled, "Leave it to me!"

She turned around in surprise and asked in confusion, "Give it to you?"

“That’s right, leave it to me!” Xiang Yuntian said confidently. “I have a way.”

Bai Mengfei had no idea what Xiang Yuntian's plan was and looked at him suspiciously. Xiang Yuntian calmly took out his phone, made a call, and said into the other end, "Get me a five- or six-meter-high A-frame ladder now. I have a very important use for it!"

After saying that, he hung up the phone directly.

Less than half an hour later, the other party called back to ask where the ladder had been delivered.

Xiang Yuntian gave them the address of the old house and asked them to send the ladder over.

After receiving the instructions, the other party delivered the ladder to the outside of the old house in just ten minutes. With enough manpower, the ladder was quickly carried into the old house.

Bai Mengfei was very curious and asked, "Where did you find someone who could order such a ladder in such a short time?"

Xiang Yuntian said with a smile, "Lian Zheng is rich. Although we are not as rich as him, we can still order a ladder to investigate his crimes."
