Chapter 452 Suspect
Xu Chunliang got out of the taxi and saw a black Toyota Alphard parked in front of Huichuntang.
The car also just arrived, the door opened, and Hua Zhuyue shouted at him: "Chun Liang, get in the car!"
Xu Chunliang was not surprised to see Hua Zhuyue. The SEVENSTAR bar where Yang Mufeng had an accident belonged to their Blue Star Group. She must have come to Dongzhou for this matter.
Xu Chunliang paid the fare and came to the Alpha car.
Hua Zhuyue said: "I wanted to go in and find you."
Xu Chunliang said: "It's already here, let's go in and have a cup of tea."
Hua Zhuyue shook her head and said: "No, I'll come to you to inquire about something, and I'll visit Mr. Xu again when I have time."
Xu Chunliang can understand her current situation. Yang Mufeng died in SEVENSTAR inexplicably, and the bar has been closed.
Xu Chunliang told Hua Zhuyue what he had learned about the situation. From the perspective of a bystander, the bar was innocent this time, and Yang Mufeng's death became a black swan incident for the Blue Star Group.
"Don't your bars have surveillance cameras?" In this day and age, even tobacconist bars are equipped with surveillance cameras, not to mention the top bars in Eastern State like SEVENSTAR.
Hua Zhuyue sighed and said: "There is surveillance, but it cannot be all-round without blind spots. At present, all surveillance videos have been taken away by the police. The specific situation is not yet known."
Xu Chunliang said: "Don't you have any impression of so many waiters?"
Hua Zhuyue shook her head.
Xu Chunliang said: "Let's wait for the police's investigation results."
The driver parked the car in front of the SEVENSTAR bar. It was very windy today, and there were fallen leaves everywhere in the empty parking lot. Because the bar gave all the employees a holiday and no one cleaned it, it looked rather bleak.
The two got out of the car, Hua Zhuyue took out a cigarette from her handbag, Xu Chunliang helped her light it, remembering that she seemed to have quit smoking, but it seemed unsuccessful, so she started smoking again.
Hua Zhuyue took a puff of smoke and said, "Thank you!"
Xu Chunliang said: "Did you say when you can resume business?"
Hua Zhuyue said: "Even if the business resumes, not many people will come here in the short term, so I simply let them take a holiday. After the police lift the alert, they will renovate."
In this year, SEVENSTAR bar has encountered many accidents. Of course, two of them were related to Xu Chunliang.
Bluestar's performance for the whole year last year was on the decline. This year's start was not as good as the same period last year. Hua Zhuyue originally wanted to use the Spring Festival as a peak consumer season to expand revenue, but now it's all in vain. At least Dongzhou has no possibility. The follow-up impact of Star Group is hard to say.
Hua Zhuyue said: "To tell you the truth, I have some doubts that someone wants to sabotage our business."
Xu Chunliang said: "Do you know about OMMIA opening a branch in Dongzhou No. 1?"
Hua Zhuyue said: "I came here this time to be invited to attend their opening reception. Are you free tonight? Come with me."
Xu Chunliang smiled and said, "You've already opened your mouth. Of course, I'd rather be respectful than obedient." Even if Hua Zhuyue hadn't invited him, he still planned to go and find out. It's time to settle the past.
Hua Zhuyue took another puff of smoke and said, "What kind of person is Yang Mufeng?"
Xu Chunliang said: "I don't know much about him. This person used to be the director of the cardiology department of the Haizhou Second Hospital. Tang Jinglun introduced him as a high-end talent to Huanian Health as the vice president. It has only been a few days since he took office. , died unexpectedly."
Hua Zhuyue didn't care about Yang Mufeng's life or death. From her point of view, there must be a conspiracy behind Yang Mufeng's death. She even suspected that this conspiracy was not only aimed at Yang Mufeng, but also at their Blue Star Group.
Although the Dutch East Group and the Blue Star Group belong to the Orchid Sect, the Dutch Eastern Group has developed rapidly in the past few years. The boss Pan Tianhua is against the head of the sect, Ji Buyao. Strength.
Hua Zhuyue has long reminded Ji Buyao to beware of the ambitious Pan Tianhua. If he is allowed to develop, Hedong will continue to erode the traditional market that belongs to their blue star and shake their basic market.
However, Ji Buyao's interest has begun to shift over the years, and he has reduced investment in entertainment entities under Blue Star. Take the Sevenstar in Dongzhou as an example.
Hua Zhuyue even suspected that Ji Buyao was going to abandon Blue Star's traditional business and enter the film and television industry instead.
Xu Chunliang saw the notice of suspension of business outside the gate, and said to Hua Zhuyue: "Sister Hua, can you go to the place where the incident happened yesterday?"
Hua Zhuyue nodded, they entered through the small gate, and there was a cordon around the incident site.
Hua Zhuyue pointed to the deck and said: "At that time, the deceased was curled up in that corner, and there were two wine glasses on the table."
Xu Chunliang said: "It proves that he didn't come here alone. The person who drank with him that night is the most suspected."
Hua Zhuyue said: "In the bar, there are many men and women who have never met before drinking together. There is no surveillance around here. This Yang Mufeng should come here often, and he is very clear about the internal situation of the bar."
Xu Chunliang said: "You probably don't want to be seen by others, right?" He suddenly thought of Pei Lin. Yang Mufeng and Pei Lin had an old relationship. She has done herself a favor, and she also promised to help her solve the problem, so she probably wouldn't do anything redundant, or even take the risk to kill someone.
Hua Zhuyue said: "However, as long as you enter and leave the bar, there will be surveillance images. I believe the police will find the suspect soon."
The police took away the surveillance video of the SEVENSTAR bar. They tried to restore all the video records of that night, find out every customer who entered and exited the bar, and then checked them one by one. Although the workload was a bit heavy, there was a definite scope after all.
The monitoring system of the bar is not as complete as imagined. If you don’t check, you won’t know. Nearly one-third of the cameras are faulty. Because of this omission, the investigation is full of uncertainty. From this point, we can also see the management of the SEVENSTAR bar. Very confusing.
The focus of the current investigation is the guest who had a drink with Yang Mufeng. There were fingerprints on the empty cup left at the scene, and a few golden long hairs were found on the sofa in the booth. Judging from the above clues, the person who was with Yang Mufeng that night Should be a woman.
As the investigation deepened, more and more cases of Yang Mufeng surfaced. He was divorced last year, and his wife and children are all in Haizhou. The reason why Yang Mufeng resigned from the Haizhou Second Court was because he took advantage of his position to collect high kickbacks. In order to avoid prosecution, he successively handed over 3.6 million yuan to the local procuratorate of illegal gains.
Yang Mufeng not only has bad medical ethics, but also has bad personal morality. He had affairs with many women in Haizhou, lived a luxurious life, bought many properties in Haizhou, and owed a lot of debts.
After the divorce, as the fault party, he almost left the house, leaving all the property in Haizhou to his wife and children.
After coming to Dongzhou, he lived in Jinmaoyue Community and lived with a woman named Chen Weiwei. The house he lived in was registered under Chen Weiwei's name.
Lu Qi interrogated Chen Weiwei immediately.
Chen Weiwei is 22 years old this year. She opened a nail salon in Carnian Plaza. She makes short videos in her spare time. She is a beauty blogger. She doesn’t see any sadness on her face. Know the news of Yang Mufeng's death.
Lu Qi looked at Chen Weiwei, mainly paying attention to the color of her hair. Chen Weiwei has chestnut hair, and what they found on the sofa was golden.
Chen Weiwei looked a little uneasy under Lu Qi's gaze: "Comrade policeman, what do you want me for?"
Lu Qi said: "You know Yang Mufeng, right?"
Chen Weiwei nodded, hesitated and said, "We have already broken up."
Lu Qidao: "When was the last time we met?"
"Seven days ago! What happened to him?" Chen Weiwei didn't seem to know about Yang Mufeng's death.
Lu Qidao: "What about the last contact?"
Chen Weiwei said: "Last night, around eight o'clock, he sent me a message asking me to go to Xicha on Changhai Road to get the key."
"Did you go?"
Chen Weiwei nodded and said: "At that time, I was in the nail shop in Carnival Plaza, not far from there, so I went there, but I didn't see him when I got there. I stayed for about ten minutes and then left. He didn't answer the phone."
Lu Qi said: "Where did you go after that?"
"I didn't go anywhere. I thought he was playing tricks on me. I went back to the nail salon later."
"Do you remember what time you went back?"
"Wait!" Chen Weiwei took out her mobile phone and looked at the call records: "At 8:40, there happened to be an old customer who wanted to ask me for a manicure, and called to ask if I was in the store."
Lu Qi winked at the policewoman beside her, and the policewoman said, "Your hair color is very beautiful, where did you dye it?"
Chen Weiwei was full of vigilance and said, "What do you mean?"
The policewoman said: "It's not interesting, I want to dye the same color."
Chen Weiwei said: "I just dyed the Johnny look in the Carnival Plaza in the morning."
"Morning?" Lu Qi and the policewoman looked at each other.
Lu Qi said: "You used to dye your hair blonde, right?"
"How do you know? What exactly do you want to ask? What happened to Yang Mufeng?"
Lu Qi said: "Yang Mufeng died last night."
"What?" Chen Weiwei's expression was very surprised, and soon her eye circles turned red, and she covered her lips with her hands.
Lu Qidao: "I hope you can cooperate with our investigation and tell everything you know."
"Yang Mufeng and I have already broken up, and I have nothing to do with this matter." Chen Weiwei fell into panic.
Lu Qi comforted her and said, "Don't be nervous, we didn't suspect you, and we're just doing a routine investigation. We need your hair and fingerprints."
Chen Weiwei said: "You suspect me? I haven't seen him for a week, and I broke up with him."
The policewoman said coldly: "The one who cleans up will clean up himself. We will not wrong a good person, nor will we let a bad person go."
