Chapter 5 third quarter

The smell of roasted lamb permeated the street, and those who heard it couldn't help but salivate.The aroma came from a mutton kebab oven on the side of the street. There were various meat kebabs on the stove, and a man was fanning by the stove, trying to make the charcoal fire more prosperous.The mutton oil juice, dripping on the hot charcoal fire, makes a piercing sound, which is very ear-piercing, but it is this strong chemical reaction that emits a fragrance that is enough to make passers-by drool. Next to this oven are more than a dozen small charcoal stoves, and small benches or Maza are placed next to the stoves.There is a market for this kind of simple roadside barbecue. Many people are willing to sit in front of the oven and eat freshly grilled kebabs while drinking beer.

Although the weather is still very cold, it is undoubtedly a kind of joyful enjoyment to talk with close friends around the fire on the street, which makes many people enjoy it and forget the cold. "It was so hard for you to invite guests, and in the end you even saved the restaurant!" Lin Ling sat in front of the oven and stretched out her hands to keep warm. "But you said you like lamb skewers!" Hu Yuyan's eyes were full of confusion about women's fickleness. "I said that I like to eat mutton skewers from a food stall with big beards, but I didn't mention here!" Lin Ling didn't have a smile on her face.

"It's so hypocritical, it tastes better here than there!" Hu Yuyan smirked. "A money fan is just a money fan. What is delicious? In this cold weather, invite a beautiful woman to eat by the side of the road. You can figure it out." "That's not bad. If you don't tell me to take the money, do you have to have an operation? Haha, you are already a very sharp scalpel." "Playing rascal!" Lin Ling pouted her lips as she spoke. "By the way, give me the things you picked up just now!" Hu Yuyan suddenly stretched out his right hand and placed it in front of Lin Ling.

"What did I pick up?" "Stop pretending! That bracelet." "Your eyes are really sharp!" "Hey, picking up money is a traditional virtue of the Chinese nation, and there is a policeman sitting in front of you. Remember that song? Kids should hand over every penny they pick up to the police uncle." "I'm afraid it's just a penny? It might not be so if I found ten thousand yuan." "Why do you think of the kid so badly!" Hu Yuyan smirked again. "This is reality, just like when we were young, we always said to learn from Lei Feng. Uncle Lei Feng never left his name when he did good deeds. Thinking about it now, it is actually very contradictory—he did not leave his name, why do we all know the name Lei Feng?" What about it? There are so many photos of him doing good deeds left in the world, does the photographer happen to be by his side?"

Hu Yuyan made a silent gesture, "You grew up under the red flag, you were born in the spring breeze, and you have crossed the century. How can you be so suspicious of our childhood role model?" "Be less poor. It is these untrue educational models that make our children unable to find themselves in real life. Because the things taught in books are always so beautiful, so noble, and so just. But when they step into After entering this society, I realized that nothing is right. The world is not so beautiful, but darkness will appear at any time." "Don't complain, don't textbooks promote negative things? How many gangsters, human traffickers, and corrupt officials there are in China... Wouldn't the hearts of the children be polluted?"

"Aren't you polluted now? Listen to what those high school students were talking about just now! At such a young age, they open their mouths about things that even adults are hard to say. They shouldn't know, they will try their best There is no way to know, this is the children of today!" "Those brats, I have educated them just now!" "You have the guts to say, that's your education method? Why did you hit someone just now? What rights do you have? It's against the law for parents to beat their children. Who are you? You still hit him so hard!"

"Only in this way can they remember that this is wrong!" "You are a policeman, what if someone's parents find out about this matter?" "I have my own opinion. Based on what they said just now, it's no problem to take them to the police station and detain them for two days. Of course, if I detain him, I won't beat him." "Beating children can't solve any problems. In fact, we haven't found a better way of education so that children can smoothly accept the adult world." "You must be a good mother in the future!" Lin Ling was very surprised by Hu Yuyan's sudden remark, and her cheeks turned red all of a sudden.She stared into Hu Yuyan's eyes, and his eyes looked at her affectionately. This kind of eyes appeared from time to time, but they were very short before, but this time they were very long.

Lin Ling lowered her head, not daring to meet his gaze, "I haven't decided whether to have a child yet." "Children are part of a woman's life, and a woman's life is incomplete without children." "Okay, okay, I don't want to discuss this kind of issue with you." After saying that, Lin Ling took out the bracelet from her pocket and threw it to Hu Yuyan. "Angry?" Hu Yuyan took the bracelet, but did not leave Lin Ling's eyes. Lin Ling put her chin in one hand and ignored him. The barbecue boss put twenty strings of mutton skewers and ten strings of glutinous rice in front of them.

"I eat kebabs, and all the ribs are yours!" Lin Ling looked at the mutton skewers in front of her, and took the first one to eat. "Hey! The ribs are what you want! Why give them all to me?" Hu Yuyan pretended to be surprised. "I will punish you! Also, give this guy two more lamb kidneys!" Lin Ling turned her head and shouted to the man who was kebab. Hearing Lin Ling's call, the man who grilled skewers smiled and nodded. "Oh my god, do you still want that? I want you to eat!" "Eat it! Eat it all, it will make you uncomfortable when you go home!"

"Haha, okay." Hu Yuyan wanted to ease the tense atmosphere with laughter. "It's windy, don't eat the whole fat, change to this." Lin Ling's tone suddenly softened, and women's emotions seemed to always change like the direction of the wind. "Thank you for remembering what I like to eat." Hu Yu said with gratitude. "Tell me, why are you looking for me today? It's probably not as simple as treating me to a meal of mutton skewers, right?" "No, no, I just treat you to dinner." "Eat, this is also called eating? Come on, what's the matter?"

"In order to thank you for your help to our criminal police team over the years, I would like to invite you..." Hu Yuyan just wanted to say "eat", but when she wanted to say it, Lin Ling would get angry again, so she changed the second half of the sentence to "eat something Something, give it back." "Come on, ghosts will believe it!" "Hey, do you have to give some reasons? There is something I really want to tell you... let's talk about it first, I'm not asking for your help!" Lin Ling looked down on Hu Yuyan out of the corner of her eyes, and bit down a piece of mutton fiercely. "A few days ago, there was a murder case in Pengcheng in Wangtai." "I heard about it, but I didn't make it to the scene." "I wanted to inform you to go, but this case was a very common suicide case, so I thought it was not newsworthy, so I didn't let the big reporter get involved." "Wang Yong isn't here, right? He's the one who notifies me every time, not you!" "Wang Yong recently went to Yunnan. The drug dealers shipped a batch of drugs to T City. He went to Yunnan to investigate the source of the drugs." "I said these two days, why am I so free? If Wang Yong was here, there should be reports about this case in the "T City Evening News" these two days. But judging by your appearance, is it this case? there is a problem?" Hu Yuyan didn't speak, picked up a piece of lamb tendon, and gnawed it hard.The plate tendon is definitely a "tough product" that can test the teeth of diners. He chewed hard for a long time before swallowing this plate tendon. "Isn't it suicide?" Lin Ling ignored Hu Yuyan's appearance and continued to ask. Hu Yuyan seemed to be a little uncomfortable with the choking just now, so he nodded reluctantly, but quickly shook his head again, "This case is very strange, the deceased is a 46-year-old woman named Liu Yanfang, from Hongfu County, T City. A villager, she just rented a single room in Pengcheng Community, Wangtai, but she committed suicide that day." "Renting a room just to commit suicide? No way! Have you paid the rent?" "Paid, paid for three months!" "That's really abnormal. How do people die?" "A laparotomy, a sharp fruit knife, stabbed the abdomen. At that time, the deceased was holding the handle of the knife tightly. There were two wounds on her abdomen, one was on the right side of the lower abdomen, causing heavy bleeding, and the other was on the right side of the lower abdomen. Near the navel, it is a fatal wound." "Who found the body?" "It's the landlord." "She rushed over after receiving a call from the deceased. At that time, there was no sound from the inside after the call was connected. The landlord saw that the number displayed on the phone was his own house number. He was afraid that something had happened, so he rushed over to have a look. .” "After opening the door, the deceased was found beside the telephone?" Hu Yuyan shook his head, "The deceased did not die next to the telephone, but died in the inner room." "You mean it wasn't the dead man who called." "No, the person who called should be the deceased. There are bloody handprints of the deceased on the receiver of the phone, which should be left when holding the receiver. There are also blood stains on the buttons of the phone, which also belong to the deceased." "Sure enough, it's a problematic case. What doubts are there?" "key!" "key?" "Yes, there are only two keys to the house. One is with the deceased and the other is with the landlord. The landlord gave the key to the deceased at noon. The deceased died in the room in the afternoon, and the key is in the hands of the deceased. The landlord When I opened the door, the door was locked." "The Chamber of Secrets!" Hu Yuyan nodded, "If this case is a homicide, it can only be understood as a murder in a secret room. But judging from the existing evidence, it should be a suicide." "Why are you so sure? You can get a key. After killing someone, just lock the door." "Unfortunately, that lock is very special. The landlord gave the house a cross-key lock. It is very troublesome to match this kind of key, and there is no shop or person around Pengcheng Community that can match such a key, and the deceased seems to have just arrived. If you are unfamiliar with the place in T City, I'm afraid she won't be in a hurry to give someone a key." "A stupid question, is the landlord okay?" "There is no time to commit the crime! Because the deceased had just died, the time of death was determined very precisely, between 3:30 and 4:00 in the afternoon. Moreover, the landlord did not have any motive for the murder, and she and the deceased did not know each other at all before." "Who else did you call the phone in the dead man's room?" "I checked. On the day of the deceased's death, there was no one else except calling the landlord." "Have you checked the public phones around you?" "There are three IC telephone booths nearby, and no fingerprints of the deceased were found on the receivers of the phones. We also inquired about ordinary pay phones around, and they all said that they had never seen the deceased call before they were alive." "Is it really strange? The deceased was a countryman. He ran to the city, rented a house by himself, and committed suicide on the same day. It doesn't make sense." "Besides, there are many doubts in this case. For example, the door handle and door lock seem to have been wiped deliberately. The appraiser passed the luminol blood test and found traces of the deceased's blood on it. .And the blood of the deceased was dripping all over the room, as if the deceased had turned around in the room for a long time after being injured, and turned around every corner, as if looking for something, and this must not have been fatal to her It can be done after injury." "Can you understand it this way: the first of the two wounds on the deceased was probably the knife wound on the right side of the lower abdomen. After suffering such a knife wound, the deceased was trying to do something in the house; this matter After finishing the work, the deceased chose to return to the inner room, and then stabbed himself in the vitals with a knife." "That's how I understand it. And according to my guess, what the deceased will do is to arrange the room into a secret room—because there are blood stains on the lock and doorknob." "If that is the case, then the wound on the lower right side of the deceased's abdomen may not have been stabbed by the deceased himself, but by another person. This person ran away after stabbing the deceased. In order to protect this person, the deceased locked the door behind him and made a a secret room, and then kill herself—to make the police think she did it, so that she can cover the killer." Hu Yuyan affirmed Lin Ling's guess and kept nodding. But Lin Ling's expression was still serious, "But the question is why did the deceased make that phone call? Obviously, if our guess just now is true, then the deceased fatally stabbed herself after finishing the call. She called What is the phone for? To save my life? Or to get the police to find the body quickly? And why is she calling the landlord? Not the police? I guess 110 is easier to get to than the landlord's number?" "This question can't be explained yet, and I'm quite confused." "The next question is, if our speculation just now is true, then who is the deceased going to protect?" "We checked, and the deceased's son was studying at T City Institute of Technology." "You suspect him?" Hu Yuyan shook his head, "At first, but he didn't have time to commit the crime. When his mother died, he was in an inter-departmental basketball game. More than two hundred people could prove his alibi."
