Chapter 121: Clues Emerge
Heavy frozen product?Jian Yan groaned.
"Uncle Tan, take me to the last place where you and him were separated. Jian Tan once again used the "Nalan Yu-style" command tone.
"Good. Uncle Tan didn't care about Jian Tan's attitude, he moved his hands and feet, his body was a little trembling in the wind, he took Jian Tan away in front, "Don't blame Uncle Tan for talking too much, I just want to ask, Officer Nalan, is there something wrong with that old uncle? Why do you suddenly want to look for him?"
"Maybe, I'm not sure, there's no news yet. Jian Tan only replied with a few ambiguous words.
Uncle Tan's face was a little puzzled: "Don't you have surveillance, and you don't see others?"
Jian Tan also despised the monitoring system very much in his heart, it was reported that most of the monitoring on the west embankment had already been broken, and no one had reported for repair for a long time, "No." Jian Tan had no choice but to answer simply.
Uncle Tan smiled awkwardly and didn't dare to ask again.
The place where Jian Tan and Uncle Tan met was near the rental house where the old aunt in her sixties and the old uncle in her eighties lived.
The wooden door of that room had already been locked, and as soon as I walked in, I could smell a stuffy smell, the air was very uncirculated, and Jian Tan found that there was a trace of fishy smell in the air, was it the smell of those frozen products? Jian Tan couldn't be sure, but this room was unexpectedly clean, and it was not messy as expected. Jian Tan thinks that it may be necessary to track the whereabouts of those frozen products before clues surface, as for the old aunt in her sixties, she has not seen her go out for several days before the old uncle, Jian Tan guessed a possibility in her heart.
Because it started near the hut, basically the route was similar to the route of Uncle Tan's old Bola box, Jian Tan paid attention along the road and found that the monitoring probes on the road were basically damaged, and this road was close to the wholesale market, so the flow of people was dense, and it was definitely not easy to ask a person.
"Officer Nalan, this is it, I recognize this dry goods shop, I helped him pull the boxes here, and then I left, and he promised to return the cart to me, although it is not a valuable thing, but I rely on this to eat, but if I can find the two elders, this car is not important, hehe." Uncle Tan's words woke up the pensive Jian Tan.
"Hmm. Jian Tan was standing in front of a store that sold dry goods, Jian Tan rummaged through his pockets, took out some cash and secretly stuffed it into Uncle Tan's pocket, and then said heartlessly: "Uncle Tan, thank you for your cooperation, I'm going to start busy, if I need it in the future, I will contact you again." Then Jian Tan turned around and walked into the dry goods store without looking at Uncle Tan again.
Uncle Tan looked at Officer Nalan's back helplessly, and sighed, "The young people now are a little proud, I hope we can find those two old people soon." Then he left.
Jian Tan walked directly to the counter after entering the dry goods store, and there was a young girl standing there, who was busy typing on the computer, "Hello," Jian Tan directly showed her ID, "I'm Officer Nalan, and I want to ask you something." When the girl heard that it was the police officer coming, she raised her head, looked at Nalan Yu's ID, and then asked a little ignorantly: "Hello police officer, what do you want to ask?"
"A week ago, there was an eighty-year-old man pulling a trolley with several boxes of things on it, and he used to stop in front of your store, do you remember?" Jian Tan asked.
"Eighty-year-old man, still pulling a cart, still with several boxes of things?" the girl thought she had misheard.
Jian Tan nodded: "That's right, do you have an impression?"
The girl thought hard for a while, and then shook her head: "I don't have an impression, there are too many people coming and going here, I have to look at the store and calculate the revenue, I am very busy, I really don't pay attention to these." ”
"Do you know of any frozen shops here where you can buy back frozen products?" Jian Tan continued.
"I've been here for several years, this street is mainly wholesale all kinds of dried seafood, and the street next door mainly wholesales stationery and prints, the frozen shop you are talking about, there used to be a few on the side of the West Embankment, but in recent years, because of bad business, they have also closed down one after another, and ......" The girl hesitated.
"And what?" said Jane, wondering, and the girl didn't continue.
"And...... I'll just say it bluntly, these years the wholesale of frozen products are through special channels, no one will buy back frozen products, one is unable to guarantee the quality of frozen products, the other is to open the door to do business, all in order to sell a good price, this kind of frozen meat things, who will buy back. "What the young girl said made a lot of sense.
"Well, thank you for your cooperation. Jian Tan walked out of the dry goods store after speaking, Jian Tan was even more confused about the whereabouts of those boxes of things at the moment, and she decided to go to the west embankment, where the addresses of the original freezer shops were.
At the end of this street is the mother river of the city, the banks of the Z river are very beautifully repaired, there are weeping willows and banyan trees on both banks, and the guardrails are also regularly repaired and maintained.
If I were an eighty-year-old, I wouldn't have come here in winter, and it wasn't as cold as it is a week ago, but it's winter. Jian Tan was thinking, and as he walked, he found a semicircular building protruding from the side of the west embankment, and the first floor of the building was a few shops that pulled down the gate, and the name of the store had faded because of the age, fortunately, after careful identification, the vague word "frozen" could also be seen, presumably these stores were the frozen shops that had closed down in the mouth of the girl in the dry goods store, right?
Jian Tan stood in place and looked around, the flow of people here is not as large as the people in the street, occasionally only two or three pedestrians pass by, no wonder the business can't go on, it seems that today's clues are broken? Jian Tan is not very good at investigating cases, and it seems that part-time people can only do this today.
Suddenly, Jian Tan saw that there seemed to be a dock not far away, which seemed to be still operating, and Jian Tan walked over slowly.
The pier is indeed still operating, the lights at the ticket window are still on, and several passengers are sitting in the waiting room waiting for the ferry, one of them is pulling a small cart full of vegetables and fruits, and another is still pedaling a bicycle.
Jian Tan walked to the glass window ticket window, and showed his ID again against the glass window, and the conductor who was almost dozing off suddenly cheered up and asked politely, "This police officer, is there anything wrong?"
"I'd like to ask you about someone, do you have the impression that a week ago, there was an old man in his eighties pulling a cart carrying several boxes of things, came here or passed through here?" asked Jian Tan.
"Yes. Originally, Jian Tan didn't have much hope for this sleepy conductor, but at this time, the conductor's tone was very positive.
"A week ago, you reacted too quickly, can you describe the situation of the old man at that time?" Jian Tan said.
"The reason why I remember him is not because I am looking in all directions, but because there was a little farce at that time. The conductor also knew that the officer saw that he was dozing and was afraid that he would not believe his words, so he explained a little embarrassed.
"The old man came here with great difficulty, and then he didn't seem to have any change, and I just didn't have any change here, so I asked him to ask the passengers if they had any, and he had no choice but to put the cart aside for the time being, and then went to ask the other passengers. During this period, there was a father who came to my window with his child to buy a ticket, the child was naughty, he looked at the boxes, there was no one around, he wanted to open it with many hands, and when he just broke it in half, the old man came back. ”
"Kill you!" Seeing the child move his things, the old man was very irritable, and the angry shout was so angry that the whole dock was startled by him, and he stared at the child with a look like a yaksha, and he almost wanted to do it. The child's father began to apologize, and then he saw that the old man's expression was wrong, and he also began to defend the child and go back, and then I went out to persuade for a while before stopping. I was really curious about what was in the box that could make this old man so nervous. ”
"Do you know where this old man went?" asked Jian Tan.
"Well, because he bought a half-ticket at the time, and he could go to several piers with a half-ticket, and I don't know where he would get off the boat. "The conductor is embarrassed.
It seems that if you want to check, you will have to go to the three piers in front of the half ticket, "How many boats do you have on the ferry?"
"Originally, there were two ships, but because of the winter, there was less traffic, and only one was opened this season, and the number of flights was reduced. ”
I see. Jian Tan was about to buy a ticket and continue to investigate, but found that the mobile phone belonging to Nalan Yu rang, Jian Tan looked at the call, it was the landline phone in the bureau.
"Hello. ”
"Officer Nalan, I'm Xiao Liang, we have a new female assistant police officer, and the leader said that you should arrange a task for her, so I will call you. ”
"Female assistant policeman?" Jian Tan was a little puzzled, "When were you recruited?"
"Officer Nalan, I was just recruited some time ago, because of my busy affairs, basically one was arranged in every bureau, Si Swenwen, it was quite beautiful, and the single comrades in the bureau were happy. ”
Jian Tan sighed when he heard this, this group of monkeys is even more uninterested in working now, should he educate and educate this group of assistant police officers for this Nalan Yu?
"Moreover, didn't Officer Nalan just take over the case this time and need help? I heard the leader say that this case may be a special test of your ability, and you may be promoted this time, congratulations. ”
"Let's talk about solving the case. Jian Tan hung up the phone, and if it was Nalan Yu, she might not be able to help but feel proud, she really couldn't learn enough.
After looking at the time, let's continue to turn over each pier tomorrow, and go back today to rescue the poor female assistant policeman, who was saddled by a group of monkeys, and should not have been scared away.
Jian Tan returned to the police station not long after, and as soon as he stepped into the door, he found a gaze scanning him, "Why are you?" Jian Tan's eyes rarely revealed incredulity.
