Chapter 19
Gao Yi also took a look at the scene and, together with Hou Liang under the leadership of Lao Zhang, came to the special video analysis hall.
Accompanying them were Lao Zhang's men, including a young policeman, surnamed Sun, who was very skilled in investigations.
As soon as they opened the video, they heard a burst of talking voices and footsteps outside.
"Isn't it just a car accident? Why did you connect it with Rende's case? What the hell have you been looking into for so long…"
The sound grew nearer, and then the door opened from the outside.
The director walked in with Wang Daqing, the president of Dingsheng Group, and his housekeeper. Dingsheng Group held a pivotal position in Haicheng, and Wang Daqing was deeply concerned about his son's case.
When he first heard the news of his son's accident, he felt like the world was spinning.
He had a direct cardiac arrest and fainted. If he didn't have a family doctor, he guessed he would have succumbed to this life.
When he woke up, he burst into tears and was devastated!
He only had one son, a successful career, and a son in old age. He had spoiled him from childhood, inevitably being a bit doting. He provided him with the best and most beautiful everything but was a little lax in terms of discipline.
Later, when his son grew up, he sent him to study abroad, and some bad habits were formed during that time. He also knew about the misdeeds his son did outside, and many times, he used his connections to handle them… But, anyway, it was his son. Even if he did nothing, he had a net worth of tens of billions. How could he die? And so unclearly?
The pool had been tested by many parties, so how could it suddenly crack?
Thus, for three days straight, he went to the police and exerted pressure on the bureau, causing the director's hairline to recede a few points.
Today, Wang Daqing came again, and upon hearing that Hou Liang and Gao Yi, who were in charge of the case, were not there and had gone to deal with other cases, it made Wang Daqing extremely annoyed.
Gao Yi glanced at Wang Daqing and said lightly, "This is not what you call other cases, and we suspect that this case has a certain connection with Wang Rende's case."
"Connection? What's the connection? It was just a car accident, and the person in the car accident had nothing to do with our family."
Gao Yi ignored him and said calmly, "Mr. Wang, please don't interfere with our work."
Wang Daqing gritted his teeth, his face a little ugly. He wanted to have a seizure, but he paused and then looked at the big screen.
Footage captured on a roadside video, three kilometers from the site, showed that when the Land Rover passed, there were three people's heads inside.
It was clear that three people were sitting inside. The video showed that before the accident, Liu Cui's car had three occupants: herself, her lover, and another person. The hair of the third person was a little gray, but the face wasn't particularly clear.
However, when the vehicle crashed into the reinforced concrete, only two people were rescued from the car – one dead and one seriously injured.
Another person was missing!
Where was the missing person?
Watching the video several times in a row confirmed this, which made everyone's throats dry.
Inexplicably, a chill arose, and even Wang Daqing's body moved unconsciously.
"Wrong!" Gao Yi furrowed her brows, pointed to a specific moment, and said, "Frame by frame, slowly."
She referred to the moment a few seconds after the incident.
"Stop? Seeing that nothing seemed to be thrown out of the car, flesh... What is it?"
In the video, after the vehicle hit, the glass shattered, and something flashed out, like a shadow, or maybe paper.
They played it back repeatedly.
It was too fast to analyze what it was, but it didn't look human.
Hou Liang's assistant Xiao Liu asked, "Could it be a flesh-colored silk sock? My girlfriend has a few pairs of silk socks of this color."
"Flesh-colored silk socks?" Gao considered the explanation and allowed him to write it down.
The video continued, but the next scene terrified everyone present.
The video suddenly showed an old man standing up from inside the car. The video didn't capture where he stood up; it only showed him slowly walking to the front of the car to look inside. He appeared calm while looking at the driver's seat, but when he looked at the co-pilot seat, his face showed a hint of pity as he shook his head. Then, he calmly left the scene.
Everyone stared fixedly at the old man's face and suddenly realized that the old man in the video, judging from his head shape, hairstyle, hair color, and facial features, was the third person in the Land Rover.
While listening to the police report earlier, everyone's backs tensed, and cold sweat formed on their foreheads.
At this moment, the most nervous and terrified person in the room was the young police officer surnamed Sun. He had been responsible for the car accident case at the entrance of Yucai School and suddenly recognized the old man's face.
His face turned pale with fright, his body stiffened, and he exclaimed, "This… How could it be him?"
His expression was even uglier than if he had been crying, and he continued, "He... This old man is the former principal of Yucai Primary School, who was knocked into a vegetative state and has since died."
