Chapter 1882: The Suspicious Apprentice

ah! ?

When they heard that Tao Yulan's photo had been found, everyone was surprised, and all of them felt a chill from the back of their spine at the same time.

Look carefully, but in the middle of this yellowed and old photo, sitting upright in a young man in a costume, is Tao Yulan himself.

It's a pity that Tao Yulan's face was painted with theater makeup, so he couldn't see his specific appearance, but for some reason, when he saw this person, he still gave people a strange and ominous feeling.

Probably, it is because he is the killer of the ghost king, right?

"Look..." At this time, Zhang Ling pointed to the photo and said, "The old artist we found was 19 years old at the time, and he was doing odd jobs in the troupe, and he was the one standing at the back!

"This year, it's almost less than 90!"

"Oh?" Cui Lizhu said aggressively and in surprise, "I finally found a witness! Captain Zhang, what did this old artist say?"

"Hmm..." Zhang Ling said helplessly, "The old artist said that Tao Yulan was arrested less than half a year after he joined Tao Yulan's troupe!

"Because he was just a handyman at the time, so he didn't know everything about Tao Yulan..."

"It's..." Cui Lizhu complained, "The bamboo basket is filled with water..."

"No, not exactly," Zhang Ling suddenly pointed at the photo, and said, "Look, these two children standing beside Tao Yulan..."

oh?

Everyone hastened to watch, but they saw Tao Yulan sitting in the C position of the photo, and on his left and right, stood two young children.

"The old artist said," Zhang Ling introduced, "these two children are not only Tao Yulan's apprentices, but also Tao Yulan's adopted sons!

"Do you know?" Zhang Ling pointed to the shorter child, "This child is Qi Hao's grandfather, Qi Shengrong!"

"ah!?"

Hearing this, everyone was shocked again, and Zhao Yu even got goosebumps on his arms.

"It turned out to be him!?" Ran Tao was also surprised from ear to ear, and hurriedly asked, "So, Qi Hao... Does Qi Hao really have an important relationship with Tao Yulan?"

"Then..." Zhao Yu suddenly realized the problem, and immediately pointed to another child and said, "Who is this tall one?"

"It's the big apprentice," Zhang Ling replied, "The name is Yang Qinchen!"

"Oh?" Zhao Yu looked at the child carefully, and there was an indescribable strange thought in his heart.

"The old artist said," Zhang Ling continued, "since Tao Yulan's accident, this big apprentice has disappeared. Only the young apprentice Qi Shengrong has inherited Tao Yulan's mantle and persisted in being active on the Sichuan opera stage... "

"Then..." Zhao Yu hurriedly asked as if he had caught something, "Have you found the whereabouts of this great apprentice?"

"I'm...looking for...but..." Zhang Ling said in embarrassment, "I've been missing for so many years, and I'm afraid I'm no longer alive now, so..."

"Yang Qinchen..." Cui Lizhu asked,

"There's nothing wrong with this name, right?"

"No, no..." Zhang Ling replied, "The old artist's memory is surprisingly good. He said that he lived in the same room with Yang Qinchen at the time, and they had a good relationship, and they will never forget, oh...

"He also said that because Yang Qinchen was influenced by singing, he always told him that he was a descendant of the Yang family general...

"Also, this Yang Qinchen is very talented in singing and is deeply loved by Tao Yulan. If he can persist in the past, he will definitely become an artist now!"

"Then..." Zhao Yu thought of a question, "Back then, how old were Yang Qinchen and Qi Shengrong?"

"Hmm..." Zhang Ling thought for a while and replied, "The old artist said that Qi Shengrong is only 10 or 11 years old, a child, and Yang Qinchen is about 16 years old!

"Hmm..." Zhang Ling said again, "The old artist also said that these two children were adopted by Tao Yulan before liberation. It is said that the parents of the two children were Tao Yulan's colleagues, but unfortunately died in the war... "

"Wow, there is such a legendary story? If you look at it this way..." Cui Lizhu swallowed, "Tao Yulan is not a bad person? Isn't there... is there any grievance in the ghost king case?"

"I think..." Zeng Ke said, "Isn't this senior apprentice suspicious? Think about it... If Tao Yulan wants to hand over "Ghost King Record" to her apprentice, she should also give it to a more sensible senior disciple, right?

"Then...then it shouldn't appear in Qi Hao's hands?

"Could it be..."

When Zeng Ke said this, he immediately brought everyone into infinite speculation.

From this point of view, the appearance of this great apprentice has indeed brought great changes to the ghost king case!

"You mean..." Cui Lizhu stared at Zeng Ke and said, "The real murderer of the ghost king case is the descendant of this great apprentice? He knows Qi Hao's past, so he found Qi Hao and made Qi Hao a scapegoat?

"This is... too incredible, isn't it a bit?"

"Qi Shengrong was only 10 years old back then, and he was still an ignorant child..." Zeng Ke guessed, "Tao Yulan couldn't have entrusted Gui Wanglu to a child!"

"Wait a minute," Ran Tao said suddenly, slapping his forehead, "We were not going to investigate the Chuankai Group before? What's the last name of the Chuankai Group?"

"Wang!" Wu Xiumin replied, "The chairman's name is Wang Likai, and now Wang Likai's son, Wang Zhen, is taking care of him..."

"The surname is Wang..." Ran Tao shook his head, "But Tao Yulan's eldest apprentice is surnamed Yang, isn't it right?"

"Huh?" Unexpectedly, Zhang Ling was stunned when he said this, and hurriedly asked, "Everyone, what do you mean by suddenly mentioning Chuankai Group?"

When Zhang Ling asked, everyone was slightly taken aback, only to realize that Captain Zhang Ling didn't know about the latest developments in the case.

"Captain Zhang," Zhao Yu hurriedly asked as if he had heard something, "I hear what you mean, are you familiar with the Chuankai Group?"

"Of course..." Zhang Ling said, "It was called Likai Construction Company in the earliest days, and my sister used to work there as a supervisor..."

"Oh? Really?" Zhao Yu and the other team members looked at each other, and quickly asked, "Then why don't you tell us about the history of the Chuankai Group?"

"History?" Zhang Ling didn't quite understand, but still said, "This company used to be the best construction company in Andu, and later it was upgraded to a well-known real estate company!"

"Nice? Is it better than Chuanxing Group?" Ran Tao asked.

"Well... how should I put it!" Zhang Ling said, "Chuanxing is an old leading company, earlier than Chuankai Group, but after the rise of Chuankai Group, it once surpassed Chuanxing Group, and it has done well in western Sichuan. rise!

"These two groups also have grievances. When Chuankai was established, it was called Likai, but in order to catch up with Chuanxing, it was changed to Chuankai!

"Later, he robbed many of Chuanxing's projects, which made Chuanxing very upset!"

"Then... what happened next?" Zhao Yu seemed to have seen the crux of the problem, and asked hastily.

"Later?" Zhang Ling replied, "Has Chuankai been brilliant for a few years? In the end, it was suppressed by Chuanxing. First, it lost a lot of projects, and then there were rumors of a debt crisis. Now it's gone!"

"I heard that because Wang Likai couldn't accept the decline of the Chuankai Group, he was so anxious that he almost died. What's more, he also suffered from mental problems and was admitted to a mental hospital!"

"Ah? A mental hospital? Isn't it a nursing home?" Everyone was shocked and looked at each other.

"What?" Zhang Ling was taken aback, and quickly clarified, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I just heard it, I just heard it! It might just be a rumor, I... I can confirm it later!"

"So..." Zhao Yu said, "The two groups have deep grievances?"

"Well, it can be said so," Zhang Ling said, "My sister said that Chuanxing sent someone to break the leg of Wang Zhen, the current chairman of Chuankai!

"For this reason, our criminal police department has also conducted a special investigation! But...the case was handled by the sub-bureau. I don't know the specific situation..."
