"Gu Chen, what are you looking at?" Officer Wang noticed that Gu Chen was a little abnormal, and asked.

"Nope. Gu Chen retracted his gaze and whispered, "Senior Brother Wang, you check here first, and I'll go out for a while." ”

"Senior Brother Gu, I'll go with you. Lu Weiwei actually discovered the movement of the opposite resident just now, and wanted to go with Gu Chen to understand the situation.

As soon as the two of them reached the door, the gap between the doors suddenly closed, and then they heard a faint sound of locking the door, as if someone was sneaking behind them.

"Tuk Tuk!" Gu Chen knocked on the door three times in a row and asked, "Is there anyone inside?"

After three seconds, there was no movement on the other side.

Immediately afterwards, Lu Weiwei shouted again: "We are policemen and want to know something about the situation from you." ”

It's been three seconds again.

And then......

Three seconds later, three seconds later.

Finally, I heard faint footsteps in the room, and I was gradually approaching the door.

Gu Chen and Lu Weiwei instinctively stepped back.

"Squeak!"

The wooden door seemed to be a little old, and behind the crack in the door, a middle-aged woman poked her head out and asked with a defensive expression, "Something?"

"We're police officers and want to know a little bit about the residents on the other side. ”

Gu Chen first identified himself, but as soon as the words fell, he found that there was a five or six-year-old boy who was holding the thigh of a middle-aged woman at the moment, hiding behind her and secretly observing.

"I don't know. "Middle-aged women don't seem to be causing trouble.

Gu Chen smiled frankly: "Eldest sister, I won't delay you for a long time." ”

"Oh well. The middle-aged woman hesitated for a few seconds before agreeing.

This has to be replaced by someone else, and the middle-aged woman definitely doesn't want to meddle in things, but Gu Chen's smile is really irresistible.

She has seen a lot of idol stars in TV series, and it is estimated that her appearance is not as good as the handsome policeman in front of her, so she agreed after thinking about it.

The middle-aged woman first let Gu Chen and Lu Weiwei sit on the sofa, and then went to pour tea, while the little boy ran into the room, and then hid behind the door, revealing a tiny gap, hiding behind and secretly observing.

"Eldest sister, is that your son?" asked Lu Weiwei curiously.

"That's right. The middle-aged woman brought out two glasses of water and put them on the table: "Since my son was beaten by the teacher in kindergarten, he has become unusually timid. ”

"And this kind of thing?" Lu Weiwei was also furious when she heard it: "What about later? Has that teacher been punished?"

"The teacher was fired. The middle-aged woman sighed: "But since then, my son's personality has become extremely autistic, and when he sees strangers, he only dares to hide behind the door." ”

Gu Chen looked at the little boy behind the door and smiled at him: "Little friend, look at me in the crack of the door, but you can flatten me." ”

"Hee-hee!" Unexpectedly, the little boy also showed a reluctant smile and seemed to respond.

"That's right. Gu Chen suddenly remembered that he had given snacks to the third criminal investigation group in the morning, and there was just a bag of candy left in his pocket, so he took it in his hand and shook it a few times at the little boy: "Give." ”

The little boy pursed his lips, but he didn't come out.

"Haha, he's a little timid. Lu Weiwei was also amused, so she had to take the candy in Gu Chen's hand and deliver it to him in person.

"Eldest sister, can I ask you a few questions now?" Gu Chen took out the transcript, wanting to know something about the situation here.

"Say it, as long as I know, I'll tell you. The middle-aged woman put her hands on her knees and was much calmer.

"Do you know the two women living across from you?"

"The meeting will say hello, but it is not familiar. ”

"Today's events, you must know the same. Gu Chen habitually turned his pen: "I want to hear your opinion." ”

On-site inquiry...... Once again, it has come to a standstill.

After a few seconds, the middle-aged woman recalled: "The two women are both surnamed Zhao, it seems that they are still from the same place, one of them, I have been back to my hometown in the past few days, and the other, I didn't know until noon, she was killed at home, it is terrible." ”

Thinking of this, the middle-aged woman was also restless: "This woman may have been killed at home a long time ago, but I was still working overtime in the unit last night, leaving my son alone at home, this ...... It's terrible to think about. ”

"Are you alone?" Gu Chen raised his head and suddenly asked.

"I'm sorry, I just got divorced last year, and my son is temporarily being raised by me. ”

"I'm sorry. ”

"It doesn't matter. The middle-aged woman didn't mind: "That's all I know, because I am rarely at home, sometimes I work overtime, so I leave my son alone at home, and now that this happens, I'm afraid I have to put down my job and stay with my son, but it means that I will lose my job, and I'm very worried right now." ”

Originally, there was a good questioning session, but it turned into a middle-aged woman confiding in Gu Chen.

Lu Weiwei brought the little boy over and asked, "In other words, you weren't home last night?"

"Yes. The middle-aged woman nodded: "Leaving my son alone at home, I'm really not at ease now." ”

"Don't worry, we will catch the murderer as soon as possible. After comforting the middle-aged woman for a few words, Gu Chen's gaze shifted to the little boy: "Little friend, what's your name?"

"My name is Zhou Yufan. The little boy looked at Gu Chen's uniform, and inexplicably felt a sense of closeness.

"Then did you find any strangers who went in and out of the aunt's house on the other side last night?" Gu Chen tried to learn some useful clues from the little boy.

According to logical reasoning, it is necessary to base on the existing facts and correct conclusions, and then the corresponding reasoning process can be carried out, and finally the truth can be found out according to the clues.

The little boy hesitated for a few seconds before nodding, "Hmm." ”

Gu Chen and Lu Weiwei looked at each other, feeling a little breakthrough.

"Then have you seen clearly who are the people who entered the opposite room?" Gu Chen took advantage of the little boy to eat candy, thinking of becoming a hot iron.

But the little boy shook his head and said in a milky voice: "I only know that three people have entered the opposite room, but I dare not open the door." ”

"Why?" Lu Weiwei was puzzled: "Don't you like to hide behind the door and observe secretly? Just now we were opposite, and you should be the one hiding behind the door to observe, right?"

The little boy nodded, but said: "But I don't dare to open the door at night, my mother said that there will be a brain axe at night, and Daxi will eat children." ”

Lu Weiwei was also drunk, but for safety reasons, the middle-aged woman did the right thing, after all, she is a person who has to work overtime at night, and letting her son stay at home alone must be educated.

"What else do you know?" Gu Chen also wanted to ask for some useful clues from this little friend's mouth.

However, after that, no matter how Gu Chen and Lu Weiwei asked, the little boy just shook his head, and he didn't seem to mean to lie.

"Thank you very much for your cooperation. Gu Chen got up and shook hands with the middle-aged woman in thanks.

"I hope you can catch the murderer as soon as possible, so that I don't have to worry about it every day, I have taken a good leave of absence from today's night shift, but if it continues like this, I will lose this job. ”

Life is hard, and middle-aged women tell the truth.

After Gu Chen and Lu Weiwei expressed their positions, they returned to the scene of the crime.

"You two, you've been nagging over there for a long time just now, did you ask anything new?" Officer Wang also came over to find out for the first time.

"What is certain at the moment is that at least three people came in last night. According to the clues provided by the little boy, Gu Chen threw out three suspects.

"That's it. Officer Wang smashed his fist in his palm and said, "As long as you can find who has been in and out of here during this time period, the murderer must be one of them." ”
