Chapter 147: Unexpected Joy
Thinking of this, Chen Miao immediately picked up the phone in the living room and hung up a phone call for Lin Shiqun's office. The one who answered the phone was Cao Shenxiu, the secretary on duty.
"Director Lin is here? I am Chen Miao?"
"Sorry, Section Chief Chen, Director Lin is not in the office. Do you have anything to do?" Cao Shenxiu is the deputy director of the director's office (secretary office), second only to Mao Ziming.
"I have something to do and want to find Director Lin. Since the director is not in the office, then forget it." Chen Miao hung up the phone after saying that.
Lin Shiqun is not in the office.
This matter was urgent, so he immediately called Lin Mansion again. The one who answered the call was Mrs. Lin Ye Yuru and asked.
Lin Shiqun did not return to the mansion, maybe he went to Zhou Mansion on Yuyuan Road.
Chen Miao didn't have the phone number from Zhou Gongguan, so he had no choice but to ask Ye Yuru to tell Lin Shiqun that there was an important matter to report to him.
As for the information left by Chen Mingchu, Chen Miao didn't even read it. He put it away and put it in the safe in the study. He would not read this item.
Wu Tianlin's phone call finally came.
The dancer named "Lan'er" came back and was controlled with Lu Laoqi. Wu Tianlin asked for instructions whether to bring the person back to No. 76 for inquiries.
Chen Miao thought for a while and took the person back to No. 76, which was too eye-catching. Isn’t that the same as telling everyone that Han Laosi disappeared? If things get bigger, it will be difficult to end.
"You can review the general situation first, and I'll go there right away." Chen Miao ordered on the phone, and then hurriedly borrowed a car from the car team and went over.
"Third brother, I asked clearly. The girl Yuanqiu that Han Laosi was obsessed with was not sick, but pregnant. She was diagnosed the day before yesterday." Wu Tianlin pulled Chen Miao aside and said in a low voice.
"Pregnant, whose child belongs to Han Laosi?"
"It shouldn't be. Han Laosi and Yuanqiu only met about half a month. It took him two or three months to find out that he was pregnant." Wu Tianlin shook his head.
"What is he doing, this bastard Han Laosi?" Chen Miao was also angry.
"Lan'er advised Yuanqiu to have an abortion, but Yuanqiu refused to listen. She wanted to give birth to the child. Even if the child's father refused to recognize her, she would raise the child." Wu Tianlin.
"What does this have to do with Han Laosi?"
"Han Laosi has come to Yuanqiu twice. Lan'er initially thought Han Laosi was the father of the child, but later she found out that it was not. They were just from the same place and were fellow villagers. She knew each other before, but Han Laosi didn't know that Yuanqiu was pregnant. Every time she came, she bought food and drinks for Yuanqiu. The two looked good. However, she went to the White Rose Dance Hall very early yesterday. Yuanqiu felt uncomfortable at home and didn't go to work. However, she heard Yuanqiu mention it and said that Han Laosi came back to see her in the evening." Wu Tianlin said.
"This idiot Han Laosi, wouldn't he go to help Yuanqiu settle the score with the father of the child in her belly?" Chen Miao couldn't help frowning.
"Third brother, I think so too, otherwise, why did Han Laosi disappear with Yuanqiu?" Wu Tianlin also agreed with Chen Miao's judgment.
"Where is Lu Laoqi, has she provided any valuable clues?"
"Lu Laoqi said that two months ago, Yuanqiu met a guest of Wu. He was about thirties and was very generous. Every time he came, as long as Yuanqiu was there, he would call her to accompany her. It lasted for about ten days, and this guest stopped coming. Since then, sometimes he started to get distracted when he was at work, and even perfunctory customers, which made the guests unhappy. Many regular customers were unwilling to ask her to accompany her, and their business became worse and worse. In the past month, she often asked for leave on the grounds of physical discomfort." Wu Tianlin said.
"Have the neighbors asked?"
"Well, I asked. Someone did see Han Laosi coming to find Yuanqiu yesterday evening. After that, he also saw Han Laosi calling a rickshaw. Then, the two left together, and it was probably dark."
"Do you think these two people's words are credible?"
"That dancer named Lan'er's words are quite credible. This is Lu Laoqi, who is also considered the number one figure in Shanghai West. I'm afraid she can't believe her words completely. Moreover, she has a close relationship with the gang and is famously harsh and difficult to deal with." Wu Tianlin said, "Third brother, this kind of woman, she actually does the work of killing people and robbing money secretly. She must have unclear hands and feet, do you want it?"
Wu Tianlin made a "neck wipe" action.
It is true that people like Lu Laoqi will die ten times or a hundred times. It is obvious that they are not willing to die like this last night, looking at the skillful cooperation of those people, it is obvious that this is not just a temporary intention to do it, but that they have done too much, and they have already had a tacit understanding.
Lu Laoqi is still the leader and mastermind.
"Murder cannot solve the problem. If it can be used by me, we can be considered as having an extra liner on the ground in western Shanghai. What do you think?" Chen Miao said.
"This Lu Laoqi is very cunning. I'm afraid that she will be slanderous. At that time, it will be a bad thing?" Wu Tianlin's view of Lu Laoqi was very bad.
"Killing her will only cause us greater trouble, and it will not be worth the cost."
Wu Tianlin nodded: "Well, the third brother said so."
"You go and call Lu Laoqi over. I still have something to ask her." Chen Miao ordered.
"Yes, third brother."
...
Lu Laoqi was really afraid. The people of No. 76 were called in the Shanghai Concession and killed without blinking. If she really offended No. 76, she would probably not be able to survive in Shanghai in the future.
So, when Wu Tianlin called her over, she came to Chen Miao honestly and properly.
"Lu Laoqi, my person is missing, it has to do with your dancer. You can't push this word off. Now that people have not found it, you have to help us find it, tell us everything we know, and don't hide anything, do you know?" Chen Miao snorted coldly.
"I know, third brother, I didn't lie. If I find out that I have something to say, I will hit five thunders!" Lu Laoqi swears to the sky and swears.
"Are you going to describe carefully the appearance of the guest with a good relationship with Yuanqiu and surnamed Wu?" Chen Miao ordered.
"He is probably the same size as you, Brother Third, and his skin is a little dark..."
"Wait a moment." Chen Miao raised his hand and interrupted Lu Laoqi's description, "Tianlin, go and get a pencil and paper."
Wu Tianlin thought Chen Miao wanted to record what Lu Laoqi described, so he nodded and went to search for it. He couldn't find the pencil, but found a pencil for thrushing.
"Brother Third, let me record it?"
"No, give it to me." Chen Miao took the eyebrow pencil and paper from Wu Tianlin's hand, sat down, pointed his hand at Lu Laoqi and said, "You continue talking."
“He likes to wear a light gray plaid suit…”
"Slowly, start with the shape of the face, hair, and facial features." Chen Miao wanted to draw characters, rather than record what Lu Laoqi said.
Wu Tianlin was very surprised. He remembered that before, Chen Miao asked him to find a painter and painted the portraits of the two people he met at Yide Tea House that day. Chen Miao could do it himself, but he still asked him to find someone to do it. Why is this?
"He has a national face, with slightly thick eyebrows and a wide forehead, giving people a very steady and kind feeling, and his eyes are very bright. It's a feeling that it's hard to forget at first sight..."
"There are some sparse beards under the jaw, not much, there is more flesh on the cheeks. Yes, that's it..." According to Lu Laoqi's description, Chen Miao quickly depicted a young man in his early thirties on a piece of white paper.
"Does it look like?"
"It's so similar, this is simply him." Lu Laoqi exclaimed.
"Do you know what his name is, what he does, and where he lives?" Chen Miao asked.
"I only know that his surname is Wu. Judging from his conversation and generous actions, he should be in business. As for what business he does, I don't know." Lu Laoqi said.
"Apart from that half a month, Mr. Wu also came to the White Rose Dance Hall later?"
"No, for that period of time, he came almost every day and then disappeared. Otherwise, Yuan Qiu would not have been reluctant to leave for a while." Lu Laoqi said.
"Very good, Lu Laoqi, what should I say and what should not be said about last night and today? Do you know what should I say about it yourself?"
"I understand, I must keep my mouth shut and not tell anyone." Lu Laoqi nodded repeatedly.
"Go, you can leave. If you remember something, come to me on the 76th as soon as possible and mention my name to the guard at the door." Chen Miao ordered, "Tianlin, send her out."
"Yes, third brother." Wu Tianlin nodded, and he had something to explain.
...
"Miss Lan'er, my name is Chen Miao. I am Han Laosi's friend. He has not come back since he went out last night. I have some questions to verify with you. Don't be afraid, I won't do anything to you." Chen Miao went upstairs to see Lan'er who had just returned home.
"Brother, just ask." Lan'er nodded in fear.
"I want to know some of the situation about Miss Yuanqiu..." Chen Miao was not worried about Wu Tianlin, but used this method to verify whether Lan'er was lying, and there were some details she also needed to verify.
After all, Lan'er lives under the same roof with Yuanqiu and is a sister who works together, so she knows much more than Lu Laoqi.
From Lan'er, Chen Miao learned that the guest surnamed Wu was not only looking for Yuanqiu at the White Rose Dance Hall, but also came to his home. Once when he came back in the morning, he was also knocked out by Lan'er.
It is obvious that they had an affair.
Based on this judgment, if Yuan Qiu is pregnant, the child in his belly must be the guest named Wu, but Lan'er doesn't know what his name is.
After that crash, the Wushou never came again. Lan'er had never seen her before.
"Miss Lan'er, I think you are also worried about the sisters who live with you. What details do you have to tell me?" Chen Miao asked, "I also want to help you find her and find Han Laosi as soon as possible."
"That guy named Wu has a gun."
"Have a gun?" Chen Miao was not surprised. Nowadays, it is not uncommon to carry a gun with you. As long as you have money and a way, it is not difficult to buy a pistol on the black market.
"Can you tell me what kind of gun it is?" Chen Miao asked more. Although people may not be able to be found through the gun, this is one of the details.
"Very small, silver gun." Lan'er said.
"What did you say, silver little gun, are you sure?" Chen Miao's eyebrows jumped suddenly. Isn't this a coincidence?
Lan'er said: "Because the gun is very small, I remember it very clearly and beautiful. I didn't know that they were in the house at that time, so I rushed in very rashly. They saw them lying on the bed in disheveled clothes, with a small silver gun placed beside the pillow. After seeing it, Mr. Wu quickly stuffed the pistol under the pillow."
"Do you still remember what kind of little gun?" Chen Miao asked afterwards.
"I can't remember it very clearly, but if I can see you again, I will definitely be able to recognize it." Lan'er said seriously.
