Chapter 351: A Familiar Waitress
After explaining everything clearly, Qi Mo still didn't want to confess the whole thing to Xu Chengyan, but just said to give her time to think about it.
Seeing this, Qiu Lan couldn't say anything more, so she had to leave for the time being.
The waterfront flower capital is very close to the Municipal Public Security Bureau, only a few minutes away, Qiu Lan did not waste time and returned directly to the police station.
In the elevator hall of the police station, she happened to meet Pei Pei from the Serious Crime Unit, nodded and said hello, "Pei Pei, how is it?
"Good. Pei Pei hooked the corners of his mouth and nodded, "But I played well last night, but today's task is very heavy, no, the case of the bones found with Liang Peiru's body before has not progressed, we are contacting CCTV today to screen the simulated portrait of the deceased, I don't know if there will be a result." ”
Suddenly, Qiu Lan's mind flashed the photo of the restructured face, and almost at the same time, she thought of the waitress at the café last night.
"Pei Pei, do you have the information on that case, can you show me?" Qiu Lan glanced sideways at the people around her and asked hurriedly.
"With it. Pei Pei nodded, handed her a blue folder in his hand, and a trace of doubt crossed his eyes, "What's wrong with Doctor Qiu?"
"I met someone yesterday who was very similar to the result of the reconstitution of his face, and I wanted to make sure. Qiu Lan flipped through the information in her hand and stopped her gaze on the pattern of the virtual face.
"Sure enough. Qiu Lan pursed her red lips, her eyes flashed slightly, and the corners of her mouth rose slightly.
No wonder she looked at the waitress yesterday very familiarly, it turned out that her facial features were very similar to the result of this facial reorganization.
Suddenly, Qiu Lan faintly felt that the waitress would bring new clues to this case.
Five minutes later, in the office of the serious crime team, Xu Chengyan hurried over with Zhigao and Xiaotiao and walked to Qiu Lan's side.
"Doctor Qiu, you said you found a new clue, what is it?"
Before you see him, you hear his voice first.
Before Xu Chengyan walked into the office, he impatiently raised the doubts in his heart.
"Officer Xu, it's a coincidence, yesterday I was chatting with Qi, cough cough, and friends in the café when I saw a waitress, I saw her very familiar at the time, but I couldn't remember who it was for a while, but today when I heard the case of Pei Peiti's bones, I suddenly remembered. ”
When the words settled, Qiu Lan flexed her fingers slightly, lightly tapped the picture on the table, and made a simple gesture.
"Is it her?" Xu Chengyan's gaze followed the direction of her finger, his eyebrows moved slightly, and there was a hint of disbelief in his voice.
"Not her, of course, but they're similar. Qiu Lan lowered her eyes, looked at the 3D virtual character on the portrait carefully and carefully, and analyzed softly, "In genetics, we have a rough human body identification, when you see that the facial features and face shapes of the two are very similar, you can determine whether they are related by some specific shapes. ”
"For example, if you look at the results of this facial restructuring, we infer the curvature of the deceased's cheeks based on the height of her cheekbones, and it just so happens that she prefers this cheek curvature, and the waitress is also high. Qiu Lan's eyes sank, and her expression was serious.
"Looking at the shape and curvature of the bones in this jaw, it is also very similar to that of the waitress. She sat up straight, looked at the person in front of her seriously, and said in a calm tone, "Of course, you can say that many people's jaws and cheekbones are like this, but my big premise is that these two people are similar in appearance that are visible to the naked eye, and then look at these subtle points to be more certain." ”
"Tiao, let's drive to the café and look for the waitress. Xu Chengyan closed the folder in his hand, raised his eyes to look at the person at the door, and commanded sharply.
"No, don't drive a police car, and don't make a big fuss. Without waiting for Xiao Tiao to answer, Qiu Lan interrupted him, "Judging by the face is not conclusive evidence, we still need to affirm my inference before we can find the waitress back." ”
In the office of the serious crime team, Xu Chengyan silently listened to Qiu Lan's words, nodded slightly, but there was a trace of doubt in his heart, but he didn't say anything because he believed Qiu Lan.
Half an hour later, Qiu Lan and Xu Chengyan appeared in casual clothes at the café last night.
As soon as she approached the door, the figure of the waitress immediately appeared in Qiu Lan's eyes.
"It's her. Qiu Lan whispered, making sure that she was still here today, and walked straight into the private room that the waitress was in charge of.
"Hello, two guests, what do you want? When the waitress saw them, she immediately followed them into the private room and handed over the café menu.
Xu Chengyan, who was sitting on the side of the sofa, took the list in her hand, but the corner of his eye kept looking at the waiter's face and facial features.
Her appearance was exactly the same as the result of the regrouping of her countenance, and if it weren't for the death of the person to whom the bones belonged had not been determined, he might have thought that person was still alive.
"I want a cappuccino. ”
"Two glasses, thank you. Qiu Lan didn't look at the menu much, and casually ordered a cup of coffee.
After all, her purpose today is not for coffee, but for this waiter.
After taking the menu, the waitress left the private room and turned to the bar.
In the silent private room, Qiu Lan and Xu Chengyan glanced at each other, their eyes meaningful.
About ten minutes later, there was a soft knock on the door of the private room, and the waitress walked in cautiously with a tray and placed the two cups of coffee on the table. ”
With that, she was about to turn and leave.
Qiu Lan pursed her red lips, glanced at the coffee on the table, and stopped her with words, "You wait." ”
"What's wrong? Is there anything else you can do?" the waitress turned and looked at the person in front of her suspiciously, her eyebrows moving slightly.
"Your coffee is wrong, the color is obviously different from the last time I came, and the taste must be much bitterer. Qiu Lan didn't mean to make things difficult for her, she just wanted to find some way to get what she wanted.
After hearing her words, the childish waiter was obviously stunned for two seconds, with a hint of fear in his eyes, "This, how can this be? Our baristas are all qualified." ”
"I also know coffee, the color of this coffee obviously affects the texture and taste. Qiu Lan frowned, glanced at the coffee with a cold gaze, and said indifferently, "That's it, if you don't believe it, then you can taste it, it's really different." ”
"But, me. The waitress lowered her eyes in a trembling voice.
"You taste it, I don't blame you, but it's really not right. Qiu Lan pursed her lips and insisted that she taste the coffee herself.
In desperation, the waitress could only put down the things in her hand, picked up the coffee cup and took a sip, "This, there doesn't seem to be anything wrong with this, I don't know what kind of taste you want, whether it's sweet or bitter, I'll ask the barista to remake a cup for you." ”
