Chapter 44: The Third Fingerprint

It's just winter, the wind is cold, but the sun is still warm.

This simple building is inconspicuous in the sun, and it can be said that it is as cold as the wind, and it is only when you go underground that you feel the chill.

Li Haoran and Su Duyun stepped into Bailong's bar again in the afternoon, and at this time, the bar was still in the preparation stage, and there were very few customers.

They went straight to the office area, Bai Yue sat at the desk and combed her hair with her hands boredly, while standing Linglong, she should have a list of employees in her hand.

Su Duyun shook hands with Linglong and took the list.

Li Haoran felt that Linglong was like an obedient puppet, and suddenly lost all vitality.

Bai Yue had a pleasant face, coupled with a red tight short skirt, two locks of long hair hanging down on the side of her face, infinitely mature and charming.

Seeing Li Haoran hurriedly stood up, stroked his long hair lightly, his eyes were full of disgust, one hand climbed on Li Haoran's shoulder, and he blew at Li Haoran and said, "It turns out that you are a policeman, why does it taste different, come and drink together at night?"

Li Haoran was excited, and immediately turned around and pulled her away from her body, "No need, we still have a job." He focused on the word work, which was intended to draw a clear line, and he was also telling his peers that he had nothing to do with this female boss.

Bai Yue glanced at Su Duyun, who was standing straight and had a serious face, the corners of her mouth sneered, and then said stupidly: "I didn't say it, we are very simple here." As you can see, we don't make money, and we have to lose money to support so many people, we are simply doing welfare. After speaking, he didn't forget to glance at Linglong.

"The owner of the bar is a white dragon, and he is your younger brother?" asked Su Duyun after changing the subject, neither she nor Li Haoran had ever seen this white dragon.

"Hmm" Bai Yue was a little unhappy. What bullshit, endless to spoil the fun.

"He's not in the bar?" Su Duyun continued to ask, despite Bai Yue's unkind tone.

"No, he's not in a bad mood, and he doesn't even bother to see me, let alone you!" Bai Yue raised her head and looked at the two people in front of her, a little disgusted.

"As the operator of the bar, in fact, we came to visit this time, and we still hope that he will be there. Li Haoran understood Su Duyun's intentions and hurriedly explained.

"Your boss is a dragon, but we haven't seen him! We've been here a few times, but we haven't seen him. Li Haoran said sarcastically.

"We haven't done anything illegal here, besides, if you want to check and interrogate, you have to bring evidence, we are doing a small business, and we can't stand your toss. Bai Yue was visibly unhappy.

This is also called a small business? Red wine inventory alone is not a small number, Li Haoran looked at Bai Yue with some dissatisfaction.

"I just wanted to ask who usually serves the drinks?" said Su Duyun.

"Anyone can take it, me, Linglong, waiter, whoever wants to take it. ”

Su Duyun looked at Linglong, "Who went to the cellar to get wine the night before yesterday?"

Linglong looked at Bai Yue, and seeing that Bai Yue ignored her, she was a little embarrassed, so she said in embarrassment: "You can go to watch the video, there are all the records there." ”

They followed Linglong out of the room.

Bai Yue, who was left with a contemptuous smile.

In the video, I saw two male waiters taking a few bottles of red wine from the wine cellar together, and then at nine o'clock, a small man walked into the wine cellar, and then no one else entered, and then the video was broken, and it jumped directly to after 10 o'clock the next morning, Li Haoran frowned.

"Why did the video jump from 10 p.m. to 10 a.m.?" Li Haoran asked puzzled.

"The video line that is most connected to the surveillance is always short-circuited, and it has been jumped several times, because our time is 12-hour clock, and if we don't look at the external monitoring, we don't know that it will be short-circuited. Linglong explained.

"Didn't the staff in your monitoring room find anything abnormal on the night of the 28th?" Li Haoran didn't think that he would skip to the next day, unless there was no one in the monitoring room.

"No, it's normal, but there are some special circumstances recently, usually around 10 o'clock, we are over, although for customers, we do this very discredited, but there is really no way. Linglong said apologetically.

"Is there no one in the monitoring room for about 10?" Li Haoran's spirit of digging into the bottom came up again.

"If the guests are gone, the security guard will lock the door and go into the lounge to rest.

"Who's this little guy who went in recently?" asked Su Duyun, pointing to the surveillance.

"Her name is Tang Youyou, and she has been working here for a year, and she has been running out of staff recently, and sometimes she will help move the wine. Linglong replied expressionlessly.

"Looks like a minor?" Su Duyun muttered.

"Oh, she should have gone to work as an adult. Linglong added.

"Such a small person, you actually asked her to carry a case of wine?" Li Haoran was a little embarrassed.

Su Duyun glanced at Li Haoran, "Do you have an address?"

"Yes. ”

The two had a brief exchange with the two security guards, the security guards had no information there, looked at the record sheet, the two said in unison, they rested at less than 10 o'clock on the evening of the 28th of last month, they returned to the lounge, ready to rest, and did not see or hear anything abnormal.

Li Haoran was silent along the way.

"Do you know this Tang Youyou?" Su Duyun drove the car, staring ahead.

"Well, sort of, I've met once, it's a shy girl. ”

"Oh......"

After Su Duyun saw Tang Youyou, she took back her inexplicability, this little girl was so beautiful, she felt that if she put this little girl with the murder case, it would be cruel.

"This officer and I belong to the Municipal Criminal Police Team, and we need your cooperation with some questions. Well...... You don't have to worry, just a few simple questions. Su Duyun tried to keep her tone as light as she could.

They were invited into the room.

The house is not big, simple small two bedrooms, very clean.

They already knew about the family situation here before they came, and they learned that such a girl had no parents and a special brother to take care of, and they couldn't bear it.

Tang Youyou poured a glass of water for each of them, and when he put down the glass, his hands trembled a little.

Li Haoran found that Tang Youyou didn't recognize him.

Su Duyun noticed Li Haoran's slightly lost micro-expression.

"Where were you on the night of the 28th?" asked Su Duyun.

"I worked at the bar the night before and came home after work. ”

"What time do you get off work?"

"Ten o'clock. ”

"How did you get back?"

"By bus. ”

"Do you know this person?" Su Duyun took out the photo of the victim the day before yesterday.

Tang Youyou shook his head.

"Take a closer look. ”

Tang Youyou continued to shake his head.

"You went straight home the night before yesterday?"

Tang Youyou nodded.

"Can you tell me about your journey back home from the bar at 10 o'clock?"

"Process?"

"It's which bus you go, where did you go in between, and what time did you get home? ”

"After getting off work, I pack my things, and I usually go to the bus stop at 10:10, and there will be a bus in less than 5 minutes, and I get home, about 10:40. Tang Youyou counted hard, and his hands twisted back and forth back and forth due to nervousness.

"So you got home around 10:40 the night before yesterday?"

"Almost. ”

"Are you in your third year of high school?" Su Duyun let go of the nervous topic, although the topic of facing the college entrance examination was also very nervous, but Tang Youyou, a girl, did not seem to have an easy living environment, and she couldn't change the topic to what to eat at noon.

"Well, the first semester of the third year of high school. "You will answer questions, but you won't chat.

"Are you nervous about studying?"

"Luckily, not very nervous. ”

"Who do you have the best relationship with in your class?"

"......" Yu Yu thought for a moment before shaking his head. She didn't have time to make friends.

"Look, you see, the big lollipop that Kirin bought for me. "A beautiful boy came running in, with big eyes, long eyelashes, fair skin, and rosy lips, and they were very similar to brother and sister.

"Who are you?" the boy stood still, a little frightened, and hid behind a tall boy.

Su Duyun smiled kindly and said softly, "We are your sister's friends, and we are looking for her to chat." ”

The boy looked at Tang Youyou, and Tang Youyou nodded.

Then, he smiled and asked Li Haoran and Su Duyun, "Do you think my lollipop looks good?"

"It's beautiful, it's definitely delicious. Su Duyun replied.

"Of course, Kirin bought it for me. ”

The boy named Qilin, tall and strong, pretending to be cool, looked unhappy, didn't look at Li Haoran and the others, and pulled Tang Youran into the room inside.

"I think we'd better go, and I'll come back to see you later when we have time. Su Duyun said loudly.

"Hmm. "Tang Youyou is still a child after all, and she can't say polite words yet.

"Do you have a soft leather notebook here? Can you lend me one? I'll buy a new one and return it to you in two days." Li Haoran stood up and asked suddenly.

Tang Youyou ran into the house, and soon took a white-covered diary and gave it to Li Haoran, who happily took it and vowed to come over and return it in two days.

"Are you suspicious of her?"

"No, just to exclude her. This is what Li Haoran expected in his heart.

"You like her?" asked a firm question.

"Who doesn't like her?" replied vaguely.

"Give it to me, I'll send it for testing. ”

"I said psychologist, do you think she's lying?"

"I don't know!"

"Don't know?"

"Yes, I don't know, a girl like her will be unconsciously nervous when she sees a stranger, let alone a policeman. I saw her nervousness, but I didn't know how much she could bear, so I didn't know. ”

When the test results came out, both of them were silent, and it turned out to be the third fingerprint on the bottle. Li Haoran looked at Su Duyun, who was sitting opposite, and also fell into deep thought.

"It can't be her. Li Haoran replied affirmatively.

"Why? That's a strong piece of evidence. Su Duyun replied sensibly.

"What are you going to do?" Li Haoran changed the question.

Su Duyun raised her head and stared out the window, after late autumn, it was getting colder and colder day by day, and the wind outside seemed to have not stopped all day, and the withered yellow leaves shook with the wind. Originally, all they saw were hideous faces, but now?

Instead of such a prolonged moan of autumn, it is better to let the winter come wantonly, even if the cold wind is more harsh, as long as you grit your teeth, there is no way to survive, but the most uncomfortable thing is now, shuddering. "Can you tell me everything you know about Tang Youyou? ”

Li Haoran sat there, observing the demeanor on the other side, from cold to firm, from firm to sad, who she was worried about, it was also for Tang Youyou.

Then he heard the question, he understood that his silence and troubles when they went to find Tang Youyou were all seen by this doctor of psychology, instead of exploring in the maze by himself, it was better to talk about it and discuss it together, maybe he could find the exit faster, so he told Su Duyun the clues he saw in the hotel, as well as the "middle school students" he heard at the front desk of the hotel, as well as the "middle school students" and victims he met in the bar.

After finishing speaking, he returned to the present and looked at Su Duyun.

"That unicorn is Linglong's younger brother. Obviously, he was protecting the two children, why did Linglong help them? And that girl went to the hotel that day, dressed up very beautifully, she should have gone to meet her sweetheart, who was her sweetheart?"

"Wait, why is Qilin Linglong's younger brother?" Li Haoran didn't notice.

"Facial physiology. ”

Li Haoran was still puzzled.

"Neither of them is from our place, do you see? It's like the difference between the southerners and the northerners, both in terms of face shape and sideways. They should be of Mediterranean descent, but they are also tall, have very special names, and have the same circle of friends. ”

Li Haoran put the two of them together in his mind, coupled with Linglong's explanation, and nodded, he thought that Tang Youran and Tang Youyou were more like brother and sister, and it was clear at a glance.

"So, another middle school student is her sweetheart?"

"No way, the middle school student may be waiting for her, maybe she is observing her, but she took the bus, the time is very accurate, she should take the bus every day, and we haven't checked, she did take the bus home on time that night. ”

"And who else?"

"yes, who else is her sweetheart. ”

"Why do you want to check her sweetheart?" Li Haoran couldn't figure it out.

"You reminded me to check on her sweetheart. Su Duyun glared at Li Haoran.

"Why don't I apply and bring her here?" Li Haoran asked tentatively, in fact, he knew in his heart that this method was the most direct and effective.

Su Duyun shook her head, "Maybe she just happened to hand the wine to the victim, even though it was given by her." There's no need now, wait to find evidence, such a girl won't run around, not to mention that there is an older brother, I don't want to bring her over so early, she is still young, her heart will be very fragile, and she will always have a special sweetheart. ”

Li Haoran raised his eyebrows inexplicably, nodded, and shook his head again.

Su Duyun stood up and picked up his coat, "Let's go, instead of sitting in the office for the rest of your life, it's better to take a walk outside, and you must know that practice makes sense." ”

"So no one thinks of you as a sweetheart. Li Haoran casually threw a sentence.

Su Duyun stood still, turned around and stared at Li Haoran's eyes again, frowned, and didn't speak.

Li Haoran immediately covered his mouth with his hand, eat a trench, and grow wise.

"Where to start?" Su Duyun didn't tease him anymore.

"Middle school students start with her classmates, of course. Li Haoran, who regained his senses, took it for granted.
