【Chapter 272, Substitute】

After Yu Hanjiang went home at night, he re-watched the variety show "Please Close Your Eyes When It's Dark" filmed by "Qiao Xuening" in the early morning of the 17th. During the whole program, there were many close-ups of faces. The screenshots were compared with the enlarged promotional photos of Qiao Xuening on the Internet.

——The two faces are exactly the same, and there is no difference at all.

It's just that the person who recorded the variety show had a slightly hoarse voice, which sounded like he had a cold.

Yu Hanjiang frowned and fell into deep thought.

Are there really people who look so similar in this world? Unless they are identical twins, due to the same genetics, the appearance of identical twins will be difficult to distinguish. But even if other people look alike, they won't look like this to this extent.

Yu Hanjiang retrieved Qiao Xuening's family information from the computer. The information showed that Qiao Xuening was an only child and had no twin sisters. Her parents were ordinary company employees.

In an interview, Qiao Xuening also mentioned that her mother was an only child, and her father had four brothers, all of whom were sons. She was the only daughter in the Qiao family generation, and she was loved by her grandparents and grandparents since she was a child. If her words are true, then she should not have cousins ​​who look like her.

Could it be that the information is false?

All the reasoning now is based on "Qiao Xuening has a double", as long as this double is found, everything will be solved easily. But if this reasoning is wrong, they have to find new ideas.

At present, the agent Qi Ming, Zhou Yuanyuan who was disfigured after stealing the show, and Cheng Yu, the sex friend, have all investigated, only Qiao Xuening is left with a lot of fog here, and Yu Hanjiang plans to continue the investigation along Qiao Xuening's line first.

*

The next morning, after Yu Hanjiang and Xiao Lou met, they discussed the next plan together.

First of all, Yu Hanjiang wanted to secretly visit Qiao Xuening's hometown to see if she had twin sisters, or relatives and sisters who looked alike, so that she could pretend to be her through makeup so that people could not see it. Secondly, Yu Hanjiang also has the information of Qiao Xuening's first love boyfriend. This person has many relatives in his hometown. We can investigate his whereabouts by the way and reveal the truth about Qiao Xuening's privacy being exposed back then.

In addition, Yu Hanjiang also asked Shao Qingge to continue to investigate the details of the audition for Lin Yiyan's debut web drama "Youth on the Mind", to see if Qiao Xuening had conflicts with Lin Yiyan as early as that time.

After the arrangements were made, Yu Hanjiang drove up to Xiaolou, and went to the household registration office, bank, and administration for industry and commerce to investigate information about Qiao Xuening's first love boyfriend.

This person's name is Xu Kai, and he grew up in the same small town as Qiao Xuening, and his registered permanent residence has always been in the small town, with no record of moving.

He has several properties under his name. In addition, he is also the owner of an Internet cafe and two hot pot restaurants. Judging from the tax clearance records of the tax bureau in recent years, his annual income is no worse than that of celebrities.

After her privacy was exposed that year, Qiao Xuening described in an interview that she grew up in a small town. After graduating from the college entrance examination, I go to Internet cafes to play games every day. Girls who just walked out of middle school are too innocent. They only judge people by their faces. The little boss at the front desk of the Internet cafe is six years older than her. She thinks Xu Kai is tall and handsome. It's also very cool, and she can flirt with girls, so she quickly fell in love and became a couple with Xu Kai.

The two had a fairly sweet holiday. Later, when she went to film school, it wasn't that she abandoned her first boyfriend as Xu Kai said, "hating the poor and loving the rich", but a long-term long-distance relationship, the relationship faded, and they broke up peacefully. Of course, this is Qiao Xuening's official statement, which is completely different from Xu Kai's version. The people who eat melons didn't know who to believe at the time.

After Xu Kai exposed a large number of her private photos, she and her first love boyfriend had long been torn apart and went to court. In the end, Qiao Xuening sued Xu Kai's defamation infringement case and Xu Kai paid her a high amount of mental damage. Xu Kai also completely disappeared from public view. This all happened four years ago.

After this incident, Qiao Xuening temporarily withdrew from the entertainment industry and stayed silent for two years before making her comeback.

On the way to the bank, Yu Hanjiang and Xiao Lou discussed the case.

Xiao Lou said: "Xu Kai was the owner of an Internet cafe back then. No matter how good the Internet cafe's business is, can he earn a lot of money to open so many hot pot restaurants? Back then Qiao Xuening sued him for defamation, but he lost the case and even lost a lot of money."

Yu Hanjiang said: "Judging from the tax records of his Internet cafes, he didn't have that much income in the past few years. The hotpot restaurants he opened in the past few years are all large-scale, and the investment must be millions. Where did he come from? It's very likely that he made some kind of deal with someone."

Xiao Lou agreed: "Maybe, he exposed Qiao Xuening's intimate photos because there is someone behind the scenes."

His first love girlfriend a few years ago suddenly became a big star. If the other party really abandoned him back then, it is natural for him to feel uncomfortable, but exposing the other party's privacy and posting his girlfriend's naked/photos everywhere on the Internet, this is a bit Is it too much? Normal people wouldn't do that.

Either there was a pusher behind him who wanted to deliberately blackmail Qiao Xuening, or the character of this first boyfriend was really bad.

The two came to the bank and investigated the bank statements under Xu Kai's name for the past four years, and there was no record of a large amount of money being transferred.

There is no problem with Lin Yiyan's private bank statement and the statement of the studio. Yu Hanjiang has already checked this point, and the account of the manager Qi Ming is also normal.

So, where did Xu Kai get the money to open Hot Pot City three years ago?

Xiao Lou was puzzled: "

Looking at the tax records of his Internet cafe, the annual income should be between 150,000 and 200,000 RMB. He lost the reputation lawsuit, and he paid Qiao Xuening 1 million RMB for reputation loss at one time. He should have lost the deposits of these years. Why do you still have spare money to open two large hot pot cities in a row in a year? "

Yu Hanjiang frowned and said, "Someone must have given him the money, but Lin Yiyan and Qi Ming couldn't find any clues in their bank statements, and it was probably a cash transaction."

Xiao Loudao: "The two large hot pot cities, the decoration fee, store rent, and waiter's salary, the start-up amount is at least a few million. In terms of cash, Lin Yiyan does not withdraw from the bank account, and he can't save it with his usual savings. More."

Yu Hanjiang was silent for a moment, and suddenly he had a flash of inspiration, and said, "See if she has a record of real estate transactions four years ago!"

The two drove to the housing management bureau again to investigate Lin Yiyan's real estate transfer records, but they did find a clue - four years ago, Lin Yiyan sold one of his houses and transferred the real estate ownership Gave it to an elderly couple.

Yu Hanjiang immediately went to investigate the old couple, and the other party said: "I bought the house four years ago. Ms. Lin is in a hurry to sell it. The price is relatively favorable. The transaction price is 3 million, including the transfer fee. But she said that she needs to use some cash. Let us Take cash directly to trade. My wife and I brought a box of money at the time, and signed the contract with her on the spot."

Xiao Lou and Yu Hanjiang looked at each other and understood.

Four years ago, Lin Yiyan sold a house and got 3 million in cash; four years ago, when Qiao Xuening was so popular and had the opportunity to win the crown of actress, a private scandal suddenly broke out, which caused her to fall from the altar overnight In that same year, Qiao Xuening told Xu Kai tearfully, and Xu Kai lost the lawsuit and paid 1 million yuan in compensation, but in the second year, Xu Kai obtained business licenses for two large hot pot cities at the Administration for Industry and Commerce.

The logic chain is very clear - Lin Yiyan's missing cash probably ended up in Xu Kai's hands.

A good girlfriend who talks about everything?

It seems that the two are simply plastic sisters.

*****

【Chapter 272, The truth about the double】

In the morning, Yu Hanjiang and Xiao Lou were so busy that they went to three places in a row.

After eating at noon, the two drove to Qiao Xuening's hometown.

During the four-hour drive, Yu Hanjiang asked Xiao Lou to sleep for a while, but Xiao Lou didn't feel sleepy. He rearranged the clues of the whole case in the car and recorded all the current doubts in the memo.

It wasn't until five o'clock in the afternoon that the car finally arrived at Qiao Xuening's hometown smoothly.

Qiao Xuening mentioned in the interview that her hometown is famous for its snow scenery. Yu Hanjiang and Xiao Lou came here this time just in time for the snowfall yesterday. At a glance, brand new buildings were covered in snow, and there was an endless snow mountain around the town. There is no end in sight, like a beautiful picture scroll slowly unfolding in front of your eyes.

The snow scene here is well-deserved, and because of the snow, the cold air seems to be much fresher than that of big cities.

The snow on the road was frozen. Yu Hanjiang and Xiao Lou had to be careful when walking. After they parked the car, they asked the locals and went to the "Whale Internet Cafe" together.

This Internet cafe has a history of more than ten years in the small town. It should have been renovated and expanded in the past two years. The former small Internet cafe has transformed into a tall Internet cafe, occupying two floors, and the entire wall The floor-to-ceiling windows are spacious and bright, and you can see the snow-capped mountains in the distance through the windows without any obstacles.

Because of the invincible viewing seats, many tourists from other places were attracted here. After entering, Yu Hanjiang and Xiao Lou took a glance and found that the second floor was almost full of people. They found the front desk of the Internet cafe, and a sweet-looking girl asked, "Are you two drinking coffee or surfing the Internet?"

Yu Hanjiang took out his police officer ID and gave her a look: "Is your boss Xu Kai there?"

The girl was startled, and said, "Boss? He seldom comes here. I haven't seen him for more than a month."

Yu Hanjiang: "Do you know where he is recently?"

Girl: "I don't know. Manager Zhang is in charge of our Internet cafe. He's here today. I'll call him over later."

The manager of the Internet cafe quickly came to the front desk and said unexpectedly, "Police? Why are you looking for my cousin?"

Yu Hanjiang said: "Don't worry, we didn't come to him to arrest him, but to investigate some clues."

The other party was obviously relieved when he heard this, and explained: "He should sleep in at home, there was a drinking party last night, he was drunk, and he may not be up yet."

Yu Hanjiang found Xu Kai according to the address provided by his cousin.

His residence is very grand. In the best villa area of ​​the town, there are two luxury cars parked at the door. According to Yu Hanjiang's investigation, he is still unmarried, but he has many girlfriends, and his private life is very chaotic.

Hearing the doorbell ringing non-stop, Xu Kai walked down rubbing his sleepy eyes, and said with a grim expression, "Who is it?"

Yu Hanjiang said calmly: "Police, please open the door for Mr. Xu."

Xu Kai raised his eyebrows, came forward to open the door in doubt, and said, "What are the police looking for? I've been drinking with people every day for the past few days... Could it be that someone drank to death?"

Yu Hanjiang asked directly: "Do you still remember Qiao Xuening?"

Xu Kai's face froze slightly, and he opened the door to let the two of them enter the room.

He poured a glass of water for the two of them, sat on the sofa with Erlang's legs crossed and said, "What's wrong with Qiao Xuening? Isn't the case between me and her closed long ago? The police came to the door. She wants to sue me again?"

Yu Hanjiang said: "Four years ago, why was her photo suddenly exposed?"

Xu Kai raised the corner of his mouth jokingly: "It's just revenge. She pretends to be a lady in front of her fans, and even pretends to be innocent during interviews. I just want her fans to see her true colors."

Yu Hanjiang asked coldly: "When you exposed the photos, didn't you know that invading people's privacy is illegal?"

Xu Kai shrugged indifferently: "I didn't think about it that much at the time. When she was with me, she called me husband every day. She loved me so much that she couldn't do without her. But when she went to university, she saw those rich and beautiful girls around her. Fresh meat, she began to dislike me for being uneducated and of a bad background, and wanted to get rid of me, and made fucking excuses that 'long-distance relationships are painful', really cheap."

He paused, and said: "So, I posted her picture on the Internet, trying to express my anger. If you dare to dump me, I will let her have no good fruit."

Yu Hanjiang said: "You lost the lawsuit in the end and paid a lot of money, right? Have you ever regretted your impulsive actions?"

Xu Kai said carelessly: "Regret? Isn't it just money, if you lose it, you can make it again."

This man is a complete rogue.

Yu Hanjiang couldn't help frowning: "Did anyone instruct you to do this?"

Xu Kai smiled and said: "Who dares to order me? Since I was a child, I have to listen to my own father's words depending on my mood. I just think this woman is too hypocritical, so I posted a few photos of her on the Internet to let everyone Enjoy and enjoy together, nothing else."

Xiao Lou: "..."

This Xu Kai put on an attitude of "I am a hooligan, what can you do to me", it is obviously very difficult to pry his mouth open, and he can only rely on the Yu team to interrogate, Xiao Lou feels a headache when he sees this kind of person .

Yu Hanjiang stared at him coldly and said, "Where did you get the money to open the hot pot restaurant?"

Xu Kai said: "I earned it myself."

Yu Hanjiang threw the tax clearance records of the tax bureau in front of him: "You open two hot pot restaurants, and the decoration cost is not less than one million, right? But the annual income of your Internet cafe is only about 150,000 in terms of the amount of tax paid. You can only afford to open a hot pot restaurant for ten years, not to mention, you just lost the lawsuit and paid Qiao Xuening millions of dollars in compensation before opening the restaurant."

Xu Kai: "..."

The man's face gradually became ugly. Obviously, he didn't expect that the policeman came prepared, and even found out the income of his Internet cafe. He scratched his hair randomly, and said perfunctorily, "I have other income."

Yu Hanjiang: "So you are evading taxes?"

Xu Kai: "..."

This time can be difficult. Let’s say that I didn’t evade taxes. I can’t afford to open two hot pot cities with this income. You say you have other income, but you pay taxes on 150,000 years of income. If you evade so much tax, you will go to jail!

Xu Kai's face was a little stiff, and he was about to speak, but Yu Hanjiang said, "Don't say it's a loan from the bank, the bank loan will have a loan record. We went to the bank to check, and there is no loan under your name."

Xu Kai: "I'll borrow it from my brother..."

Yu Hanjiang: "I asked someone to borrow it in private. Please provide the IOU, the borrower and the repayment information. Otherwise, the source of so much money is unknown, and we can still ask colleagues from the Economic Investigation Section to go back and investigate your financial problems."

Xu Kai was so blocked that he had nothing to say, his face was as dark as the bottom of a pot.

Yu Hanjiang crossed his arms and looked at him indifferently: "Lin Yiyan gave it to you."

Xu Kai's back stiffened suddenly, his face sullen and he refused to speak.

Yu Hanjiang continued: "Besides, she didn't dare to leave an obvious record in the bank statement, so she didn't transfer the money to you. Instead, she sold a house, asked the buyer to give her cash, and she gave you the cash directly. 3 million ,Is it right?"

As if being told what was on his mind, the corners of Xu Kai's mouth twitched, and he said in a trembling voice: "Officer, this... Lin Yiyan took the initiative to find me, let me expose Qiao Xuening's scandal, and offered me a large sum of money to let me I'm tempted to live comfortably in this life! Even if it's against the law, she is the mastermind! I'm just an accomplice... Big deal, I'll pay Qiao Xuening for that money, anyway, my hotpot city business has been getting better and better in the past few years Well, a few million is nothing, I'll pay her all, right? It's been so long, and she still reported the case and asked you to investigate me?"

After being questioned repeatedly by Yu Hanjiang, this guy finally recruited.

To deal with this kind of hooligan, Yu Hanjiang has his own way.

To be able to post his girlfriend's private photos online for money, this man himself has no principles. He can betray Qiao Xuening for money, and naturally he can also betray his employer Lin Yiyan for self-protection.

Yu Hanjiang said indifferently: "Qiao Xuening didn't ask us to check you."

Xu Kai was stunned: "Then... the court has already decided what happened four years ago, and I paid the money and made the public apology, why are you looking for me now?"

Yu Hanjiang: "Lin Yiyan is dead."

Xu Kai was dumbfounded. Realizing the meaning of this sentence, his face turned blue for a while, he clenched his fingers vigorously, and said in a trembling voice: "You, do you suspect that it was Qiao Xuening who killed her to get revenge on her?"

Yu Hanjiang nodded: "It is possible. So, you'd better cooperate with us and tell the truth."

The idiot man was probably scared, and nodded frantically: "I must say! Qiao Xuening hasn't contacted me in the past few years. She has deleted my contact information a long time ago, and I have also changed my mobile phone in the past few years. I have never seen her again." I contacted her, I thought the events of the year were over. Didn't she come back again, did she have a good time?"

Yu Hanjiang asked: "Qiao Xuening has a twin sister, or someone who looks like her?"

Xu Kai shook his head: "No, she is an only child. Their house is not far from mine. I saw her often alone when she was young.

Playing in the square, I have never heard of her having any sisters. "

Yu Hanjiang then asked: "Does she like ice cubes?"

Xu Kai was taken aback by this question, and after a moment of silence, he said, "Ice? She is most afraid of ice. She is born with a cold body. Even if there is heating at home in winter, she has to plug in an electric blanket in advance to sleep. It’s hot, otherwise she wouldn’t be able to sleep at all. It snows a lot here, and when others are playing in the snow outside, she doesn’t dare to touch the snow, and she always stuffs her hands in her pockets when she walks.”

When Xiao Lou heard this, he couldn't help but wonder in his heart—what is the meaning of the ice cubes in Lin Yiyan's bathtub? Is it related to being afraid of the cold?

Yu Hanjiang then asked a lot of things about Qiao Xuening, including habits, hobbies, etc., but Xu Kai fell in love with her more than ten years ago. She had just graduated from high school at that time, which was very different from now.

Xu Kai's understanding of her was very limited, and there were only so many clues he could provide.

Yu Hanjiang warned: "If Qiao Xuening is really the murderer who killed Lin Yiyan, you will also be in danger, be careful of her revenge. She is filming these few days, and this drama will be finished soon, you should try to bring someone to accompany you when you go out in the future , Also, don't be alone at home."

Xu Kai's back trembled, shaking the goosebumps all over his body, and said: "I, I know, I must be careful!"

Yu Hanjiang and Xiao Lou left Xu Kai's house. Then I visited Qiao Xuening's school and the community where she lived when she was a child.

Neighbors and school teachers said that Qiao Xuening didn't have any twin sisters, and she had never seen a girl who looked like her.

If she grew up here, it would be impossible for her parents to have two daughters and hide one of them. What's more, the hospital in the county has her mother's birth records, and a baby girl was born naturally, so it's impossible for the doctor to miss a baby, right?

Therefore, the suspicion that Qiao Xuening has twin sisters can be completely ruled out.

Where did the person who looked like her come from?

*

This small town is a four-hour drive from Binzhou City. After Yu Hanjiang and Xiao Lou checked the clues, it was already 9:00 in the evening. The two went to the hot pot restaurant opened by Xu Kai to eat hot pot, and found that the business of this restaurant was really good. So It was full house late.

The two decided to stay here for one night.

Yu Hanjiang booked a local hotel. After dinner, he and Xiao Lou returned to the hotel together. The two took a shower and began to discuss today's harvest. Yu Hanjiang said: "The biggest problem now is to find the substitute."

Xiao Lou said, "If they weren't twins, how could there be such similar people?"

Yu Hanjiang thought about it carefully, and said, "Plastic surgery."

Xiao Lou was startled for a moment, and quickly realized: "That's right, the plastic surgery technology is so advanced now, it's completely achievable medically if you want to make someone's face look similar."

Yu Hanjiang nodded: "Qiao Xuening's height is 168cm, and her weight is 50kg, which is relatively well-proportioned. It is not difficult to find a girl with the same height and weight as her. As long as the other party has a similar face shape to her, let the other party undergo plastic surgery according to her facial features , and put on some makeup, so that the person 'made' by the surgery becomes a substitute exactly like Qiao Xuening."

Hearing this, Xiao Lou felt his heart tremble: "So, the two years when Qiao Xuening was hit hard and depressed, it wasn't actually depression, almost suicide, hiding at home to adjust her mood, but... creating a self A dedicated stand-in?"

Yu Hanjiang said: "It's possible. In those two years, she disappeared from the public and terminated her contract with her previous manager. Even her parents didn't want to see her. Maybe she knew it was Lin Yi at that time." Yan instructed her first love boyfriend to expose her photos, causing her nude/photos to spread all over the Internet, and countless people privately collected them. She harbored a grudge and wanted to kill Lin Yiyan."

Xiao Lou continued the topic and said: "But she was worried that she would be sentenced if she killed someone? So, after much deliberation, she decided to secretly create a double, and use the double as an alibi when necessary, so that she can Pick yourself clean and stall the police investigation."

Yu Hanjiang said: "The murderer of the Lin Yiyan case was very smart. After freezing Lin Yiyan in the bathtub, he was still using Lin Yiyan's mobile phone to send WeChat messages to relatives and friends to confuse the time of Lin Yiyan's death. If it weren't for the neighbors The cat at home suddenly jumped into the window on the top of the building and got blood stained in panic, maybe her next plan is to log on to Lin Yiyan's Weibo and announce her withdrawal from the entertainment circle."

The more Xiao Lou thought about it, the more terrifying he became.

She killed Lin Yiyan silently, and then forged Lin Yiyan's statement of resignation, making Lin Yiyan disappear completely. After a while, when she came back to dispose of the corpse, no one could find Lin Yiyan.

Let a person completely disappear from the world, but also remove all suspicions of oneself, the meticulousness of the mind is chilling.

The two were discussing when Yu Hanjiang's phone rang suddenly.

The nervous voice of the police intern Xiao Wu came over the phone: "Captain Yu, it's not good! A murder occurred in the villa area of ​​Bingxue Town, and a man named Xu Kai was killed! It is said that it was his cousin at night. When I went back to look for him, I opened the door and found Xu Kai dead in the bathtub, so I called the police! The local police have already gone to the scene..."

Yu Hanjiang's expression changed suddenly, and he immediately put on his coat and went to the scene with Xiao Lou.

While striding out, he called Qu Wanyue: "Teacher Qu, where is Qiao Xuening?"

Qu Wanyue said: "I just finished dancing with me and went back to the hotel to sleep."

Yu Hanjiang and Xiao Lou looked at each other.

Qiao Xuening was still filming on the set, during the day it was Qu Wanyue who stared at her, at night, Shao Qingge arranged for Liu Qiao to live in the room on the roof of her building closely

Pay attention to her movements, she couldn't have traveled all the way for four hours to come to the town and kill Xu Kai.

Xu Kai was killed suddenly, who would be the murderer?

Is it Qiao Xuening, or her substitute?

Is the person filming on the set the real Qiao Xuening?
