The small rope hanging on the boss's body is actually a special rope that stretches elastically.

Generally not a rock climbing enthusiast, few people know about this thing, and they will not even notice this little thing at all.

Ding Fan also saw it by accident, and felt that this thing looked somewhat familiar, but for a while he couldn't remember where he had seen this thing.

At first, he was thinking if he had seen this thing in the previous case, but on the way back, Ding Fan suddenly remembered that the second deceased, Zheng Nancheng, seemed to have a trace of a lock strap similar to this on his neck.

I had been thinking about what was on his neck, and I had been investigating for two days and found nothing.

Unexpectedly, I ate a little bit in the night market outside today, and found a crucial clue.

Maybe the thing that Zheng Nancheng strangled on his neck before was this little thing that looked inconspicuous.

After figuring this out, Ding Fan was still in the mood to go back to the hotel, so he directly called a car and went straight to the special store in the north of the city.

It's just that when he arrived by car, most of the shops around him had already closed, and the few remaining shops were also preparing to close.

Taking advantage of the fact that there was still a little light in one of the stores, Ding Fan hurriedly rushed forward and grabbed the man who was about to go out.

Originally, the man who came out of the store was still a little impatient, and he was not very willing to deal with him.

After all, it's all this time, and people are going home to rest.

The things he sells in his store are not in urgent need of anything, and many of the people who come to buy things are regular customers, and they will come to him in advance to make reservations.

It seems that Ding Fan is in such a hurry, it doesn't look like he's here to buy mountaineering equipment, it's a bit like going to the pharmacy to buy medicine.

It's a pity that Ding Fan didn't give him a chance to refuse at all, and took out his documents directly from his body.

As soon as he saw that it was the police, the man immediately shut up, and his attitude was slightly better.

"I'm sorry brother, I'm from the criminal police team, and I'm investigating a case recently!" Ding Fan was also polite, took out a cigarette and handed it to him.

The man hesitated for a moment, then finally reached out and took the cigarette and nodded, "Say, what can I help!"

To be honest, Ding Fan didn't know whether what he was looking for was a mountaineering item, and even described it a little vaguely.

For a moment, he was sweating a little, and he felt that his ability to express himself was almost like that of a schoolboy.

Unexpectedly, this man who was going to close the door seemed to understand what he meant, and after thinking for a while, he nodded and said: "Yes, the kind of elastic ring cable you said does have in our store, and the entire Pengcheng is only available in our family." ”

"This kind of ring rope, generally not a lot, only more professional people know this thing, even in the process of mountaineering is not necessarily used, I have a batch in my hands before, and now there are a few leftover!"

When Ding Fan heard this, he immediately breathed a sigh of relief, this trip was finally not in vain, and he relaxed and asked, "Is it convenient for me to see?"

The man glanced at the store where the lights had been turned off, and finally nodded, turned on the lights in the store again, walked to the edge of the shelf with Ding Fan, reached out and took out a rope and handed it to him and said: "It's this kind of lock, in fact, many mountaineers know this thing, but not many people use it, this thing doesn't play a big role in the process of mountaineering, it just plays a role in insurance." ”

This lock doesn't look very special, but I have to say that the pulling force is really not small, it looks like a solid stick, but under the hard movement, it is obvious that this thing has elasticity inside.

"It looks inconspicuous, but this thing can be a lifesaver when it matters!"

Saying that, the clerk also picked up the belt on one side and made a demonstration, as if he wanted to prove that the goods in his hands were genuine.

But Ding Fan obviously didn't care much about this, his eyes turned to the rope on the other side, reached out and picked up the rope and asked, "Are these two the same?"

To be honest, I can't see anything about the material of the rope, it seems to be the same.

The one that Ding Fan was holding in his hand was obviously one more black handle than the one he had seen before.

The clerk put down the ring rope in his hand, picked up the rope that Ding Fan said, nodded a little helplessly and said: "The material is the same, but this thing is generally used for rescue, the position of this grip, there are two small mechanisms, the front one is a locking device, and the back position is a cutting device, as long as the ring is stuck on the waist, and then locked, people can be dragged directly through the rope, for novices, the instructor can use this thing to save lives." ”

Ding Fan reached out to take this set of equipment, it was not big in his hand, and the weight was very light, and after looking around the store, he directly buckled the loop of the rope on the neck of the plastic model on the side.

Fingers pressed the button in front of him, but the clerk standing on the side was anxious: "Don't pinch it...... Let go, it's over!"

Just when Ding Fan was stunned, the rope had been locked to the tightest level, and his hand was still pressing on the button, and the plastic model's neck was easily strangled into a twisted shape.

The model is plastic, and Ding Fan only pressed the button for less than ten seconds, if it were a real person, I am afraid that this rope would be able to be strangled into the flesh.

The clerk hurriedly snatched the equipment in Ding Fan's hand, pressed it at the end of the handle, and directly cut this section of rope, leaving that section of rope on the model.

"Oh my God, I really shouldn't have let you in today!" the clerk looked at the model's miserable appearance without tears, found a wallpaper knife, and carefully picked a few times on the rope little by little, as if trying to get the rope off it.

But obviously, the rope was cut at all, as if it was unusually strong.

Ding Fan watched on the side for a long time, reached out and took out the lighter, reached out and grabbed the wallpaper knife in his hand, and then used the lighter to continuously bake the blade of the wallpaper knife, and finally burned the blade red, and then cut the rope with a knife.

The clerk didn't cut the rope for a long time before, but he didn't expect Ding Fan to cut the rope easily with a hot knife.

But what's the use of breaking the rope, the whole model will be made like this, and I'm afraid tomorrow I'm going to lose money.

"I want this model, go back and tell your boss, I will compensate me!" After the rope was cut, Ding Fan seemed to have solved the doubts in his heart, and his mood suddenly improved a lot, he reached out and took the small equipment in his hand, carefully studied it and said: "This kind of equipment in your store should not sell much!"

The young clerk nodded, looking at Ding Fan holding the equipment in his hand, he was a little worried, hesitated for a moment and said: "There are only three or four sold in total, when the goods were first purchased, there were more than a dozen of these things, and then a few were half sold and half sold, and one was lost, and there were only three or four left in the hand!"

Lost one?

Looking at the scale of his shop, it's not bad, can things be easily lost?

"Do you remember when you lost it?" Ding Fan frowned and thought for a while, and asked the clerk, "I need an accurate time!"

The clerk nodded, after all, this thing was a relatively expensive thing in his store, and he naturally remembered it very clearly.

"It's not a long time, about a week ago, I called the police at that time!" Speaking of which, the clerk was obviously a little hesitant, but after thinking for a while, he still said: "But even if it is called to the police, it is useless, this thing itself is very unpopular outside, even if someone stole it at that time, eighty percent of them are a bunch of stupid thieves who don't understand anything, this thing is only valuable when it falls into the hands of people who know how to do it, and ordinary people don't know what this thing is used for when they see it!"

There is some truth to this, and if you can steal here, you either come here specifically for something, or you are a stupid thief who steals something and doesn't know what you stole from you.

"In ten days, it is said that this case should have eyebrows, you call the police officer in charge of the case now, and I will tell him!" Ding Fan thought for a while, generally speaking, it is a theft case, and it is not difficult to solve it.

After all, there are only a few local thieves, and there are many traces left by novices, and although veterans leave fewer traces, they always have to ship.

As long as these people ship the goods, they will inevitably show their fox tails, and it will not be difficult to catch them when the time comes.

In fact, after the clerk's phone call, the reply he got was basically the same as Ding Fan guessed.

In fact, the results of the case had been found two days ago, but when the thief was committing the crime outside, he stole more than one family, the case was still being sorted out, and the stolen goods had not been recovered, so he was not notified.

But now that the thief has been caught, things will be much easier.

"Then model, you calculate how much you have to lose, I bought this thing. Ding Fan said, took out his business card and handed it to him and said, "I didn't get much money when I went out at night, you will come to the criminal police team early tomorrow morning to find me to get money." ”

"As for what you lost, I'll ask you about it later. ”

Seeing that Ding Fan was leaving, the clerk glanced at the business card in his hand, immediately chased it out, locked the door in a panic and said: "That leader, I had a bad attitude just now, I'm really sorry, so let's take you to the police station by the way!"

What is the mind of this clerk, can Ding Fan still know?

However, he didn't break him, just smiled mysteriously, nodded and walked with him.

When he arrived at the police station, the thief who had stolen before had already been transferred out, and Ding Fan didn't talk nonsense with him, and directly put the unnamed equipment in the store in front of him and asked, "Are you familiar with the things?"

This thief is also an old oilman, glanced at the things on the table, and guessed what he stole before, eighty percent of it was an accident, his eyes rolled, he shook his head and said: "What is this, I haven't seen this thing, officer, it doesn't look like a valuable thing!"

Ding Fan nodded, casually put the things on the table on the side, walked up to him, and stared into his eyes: "If the thing is in your hands, then you are a murder suspect." ”

"But I guess you don't have the guts to kill, so it's true that you sold this thing!"

"I'm wondering right now, who did you sell it to?"

The thief dodged Ding Fan's eyes, as if he was afraid that everything he knew would be seen from this person's eyes, but the more he dodged, the more Ding Fan followed him closely.

"You don't have to say it, I also have a way to make you desperate outside in the future, do you believe it?" Ding Fan said in a cold voice in his ear: "You have been in, you should know that there will be some small games when welcoming newcomers, can you guarantee that you can bear it?"

"Now I'm asking you, you don't have to answer, after you go in, someone is asking you, do you dare not answer?"

"Those people, in order to come out a day earlier, they will be very willing to cooperate with me!"

Ding Fan's voice became more and more cold, and the thief who listened to it was now trembling, his eyes turned and rolled, and finally he could only lower his head and say, "Sold to a man!"
