When the bad news came, Ye Zhili immediately returned from Shanghai, on the one hand, to cooperate with the police to investigate the murder of Guo Bifeng, and on the other hand, to help Guo Jieren deal with Guo Bifeng's posthumous affairs. The local police investigated for several days and found that Guo Yanfeng's interpersonal relationships were extremely complicated, with countless emotional disputes and financial entanglements, and the surviving Bai Xueyan could not provide any useful information, so their investigation focused on the anonymous phone call.

The call was made from an old public telephone booth. Although no one uses calling cards such as 201 and 301 anymore, the public phone booths are located at the junction of urban and rural areas and have not been completely cleared. As long as the circuit is working, you can still directly call emergency numbers such as 110, 120, and 119.

The time when the murderer reported the crime was 8 o'clock in the evening of the next day. Around this time, the police screened a large number of surveillance videos in the nearby area and found that the caller was wearing a neutral gray down jacket and was about 1.6 meters tall. When he called the police, he was also carefully disguised, only a pair of eyes were missing from the outside, and even his hands were always wearing thick cold-proof gloves.

In the middle of winter, it's normal to dress like this, and the police can't do anything to investigate. Moreover, this place is close to the national highway, and there are many people who know that there is a phone booth here, and it is impossible to judge the approximate range of activities of the murderer.

Forensic investigators examined almost all of the villa and found no biological traces of the killer's fingerprints or hair. Just when the police were at a loss, Guo Jieren, Guo Yanfeng's father, broke the news in front of the media that Ye Zhili's relationship with his son was very poor, and family conflicts often broke out, and her name was not originally used in Shanghai's performing arts activities, so she asked her agent to take the initiative to contact the organizer to participate. This shows that his daughter-in-law deliberately created alibi evidence, and Guo Yanfeng's death is likely to be led by her.

After hearing about this, Ye Zhili directly had a black line and asked the agent to arrange a lawyer to prepare to prosecute her father-in-law for spreading rumors. But in the entertainment industry, with such tainted news, Ye Zhili was on the hot search list on the same day, and even occupied the first place on the topic popularity list at the peak of traffic. Many self-media are even more happy to eat human blood steamed buns, and have picked up Ye Zhili from beginning to end with the title of "Popular Actress Buys Murderer".

Ye Zhili, who was overwhelmed, was haggard and lost her human form in two days, so she took the initiative to ask Qin Yiyan, who was a policeman, to see if she knew a competent policeman to help her solve the case.

Liu Nanhe is a little big, because he is a policeman, and he must obey the arrangements and instructions of his superiors when investigating or not investigating any case. They are not free detectives, it is impossible for Ye Zhili to need them, so they will take over directly. However, Qin Yiyan is a smart person, since she told Liu Nanhe about this case, she may think of a good way to intervene.

The next morning, Liu Nanhe took the city and township shuttle bus back to his hometown. His parents didn't know that he was coming back, because it was Liu Nanhe's turn to be on duty during the Chinese New Year last year, and he didn't go back to eat dumplings until the fourth day of the Lunar New Year. Seeing Liu Nanhe come back so early this time, the two elders were overjoyed, and went to the market to buy a whole refrigerator of vegetables.

Liu Nanhe was ashamed, obviously the place where he worked was not far from home, but he couldn't come back often. Seeing the gray hair on his parents' heads, he realized that they would also grow old like other people's parents. Dad and Mom didn't think that much, who let their son be a policeman. In the eyes of their generation, the child is a teacher, a doctor or a policeman, and he is equally respected by everyone, as long as the son does not encounter danger while working, then it is easy to say anything.

Dad frowned and asked, "The country road is not congested, why don't you drive back?"

Liu Nanhe didn't want to tell his parents about that dangerous thing, so he said lightly: "The engine has a small problem, and the repair shops are on holiday, and it can only be repaired after the year." ”

My mother smiled: "It's okay, it's okay, the shuttle bus is also very good, go directly to the door." Nanhe, eat some fruits, bananas and apples, by the way, and persimmons in our yard. You haven't eaten in six or seven years, have you?"

Liu Nanhe also laughed, because he remembered that his persimmon trees were different from other people's, although there were very few ones, they were all big guys. In his first year of college, there was a persimmon tree that only bore a total of more than thirty persimmons. But the largest one weighed seven or eight taels, which stunned the neighbors and elders in the village.

My mother went to the back room and took out the persimmons, and sure enough, they were still the same red color, and the same round big one. Liu Nanhe took one, it was a little cold to start, and when my mother saw it, she wanted to go back again, so she soaked it in warm water for a while before handing it to Liu Nanhe. Liu Nanhe took a small bite and sucked it gently, and the plump and sweet pectin flowed into his mouth, which was extremely refreshing.

After eating the persimmons, before they could sit down in the chairs at home, the neighbors began to come to the house. Aunt Jiang next door said: "I looked like Nanhe just now, but I haven't seen it for a long time, and I don't dare to recognize it." ”

Aunt Yang said: "That's it, Nanhe, why did you lose so much weight?"

"Thin is a little thinner, but he has also grown taller, and I have the impression that Nanhe seems to be a little more than one meter six. ”

"Oh, his sister-in-law, are you talking about the year when Chen Guzi was rotten sesame? When he was in high school, he was 1.8 meters. When this boy reaches this age, how can he grow taller? Mom corrected with a smile.

Liu Nanhe accompanied them to gossip and asked them about their health and the situation at home. After saying a few words, they immediately changed the topic, stared at Liu Nanhe and asked, "Do you have any friends in the city?" It's time to get married, it's twenty-five or sixteen." ”

Liu Nanhe said with a smile: "I'm too busy at work, and I don't have time to think about it for the time being." ”

Aunt Jiang said: "That's not good, no matter how busy you are, you have to start a family and inherit the lineage." By the way, my cousin's daughter has just graduated from college this year, so she looks so good, you can sit down and take a look. ”

My mother smiled with a spring breeze on her face and said, "Oh, his aunt, I can bother you." How old is the girl, how tall is she, what are you studying?"

Liu Nanhe was confused, looking at this rhythm, it seemed to be getting more and more crooked. Aunt Jiang said: "It seems to be twenty-two or three years old, the height is not bad, one meter six or seven." What are we studying, we who are uneducated, I don't know, I heard that you can earn thousands of yuan a month after graduation. ”

Aunt Yang also said: "Don't you say that I almost forgot, my brother also has a daughter, who is a teacher in our city, and the conditions are quite good, Nanhe, you can talk about it when you have time." ”

The old mother accepted all the orders and said, "Okay, okay, you ask the girl there, if it is appropriate, sit down and chat tomorrow." ”

Liu Nanhe hurriedly said: "Mom, oops, Mom, will you let me spend the New Year quietly?"

Mom smiled: "You came back so early this year, do you want me and your dad to be happy?"

Liu Nanhe said: "Yes." Do you need to ask?"

The old mother smiled even more incomprehensibly, and said: "Then we will be happy to see a few more future daughters-in-law, otherwise we will not be happy, what do you say this should do?"

Liu Nanhe was convinced and gave a thumbs up: "Mom, who did you learn this routine from?"

Mom said: "No, when you are idle, you have watched a few more episodes of "Family with Children" when you are idle." When it came to "children", my mother deliberately increased the volume, making Liu Nanhe want to cry without tears, so she could only sit there in a daze with a pair of ears and no tears.

That night, Qin Yiyan called and said that Ye Zhili had been detained by the Mingchuan County police for questioning. Regardless of whether Guo Yanfeng was killed by her or not, Guo Jieren is powerful in the local area, and the police must give him three points of face.

Liu Nanhe frowned and said: "She has an alibi, and she has no motive to kill Guo Yanfeng, even if the police ask her for questioning, she will be detained for twenty-four hours at most, right?"

Qin Yiyan said: "It's not good to say now, the impact of this case is too great, and the police's nerves are tense." ”

Liu Nanhe nodded and said, "Then it's useless to tell me now." If you don't speak, we won't be able to go anywhere. Besides, Mangcheng is in the easternmost part of Tuobin Province, and Mingchuan County is in the southwest of Tuobin Province. ”

Qin Yiyan said with a smile: "As long as you transfer people, it will definitely be us." ”

Liu Nanhe sighed helplessly and said, "You have petitioned your uncle again?"

Qin Yiyan said: "Do you need me? Guo Jieren is doing business in the provincial capital now, and if his son is dead, his uncle will definitely hear about it." As long as Mingchuan County can't solve this case, he will think of us immediately. It's a conditioned reflex, and I don't need to say a word. ”

Liu Nanhe was a little unhappy, because the longer the delay, the more difficult it was to find favorable clues. And when the order of the provincial capital came down, the ghost knew that the Year of the Monkey had gone. Just like the "Snow Corpse Case", if it weren't for Zhao Hongyan committing the crime again, they would not have been so easy to solve the case that had accumulated for three years. Qin Yiyan also seemed to think of this, hesitated for a while, and suddenly said: "I think that since the murderer called the police, this should be a provocative way. He's not going to stop there. ”

Liu Nanhe was shocked in his heart, and immediately recalled that the murderer took the initiative to inform the police of this case. According to common sense, there is a real possibility that he will continue to commit crimes. Qin Yiyan didn't say anything more, reminded Liu Nanhe to rest early, and hung up the phone. Liu Nanhe originally wanted to ask her where she was, but looking at her comfort with the case, it seemed that she was not in the provincial capital at all, but went directly to Mingchuan County.

Putting down the phone, Chi Wei sent a crying expression in the work group, followed by a location, which was a small city in central Anhui Province. Calculating the distance, he walked for a day and a night, and only walked half the way. Liu Nanhe gloated and asked knowingly: "Hey, Weizi, what's wrong, is it a traffic jam?"

Chi Wei said: "Boss, you need to see an ophthalmologist." ”

Fang Yaya immediately followed the bubble: "Wow, it's Anhui, it's not bad, it's good to catch the Chinese New Year's Eve dinner." ”

Chi Wei said: "My three meals are bread and mineral water, and my stomach starts to hurt when I eat it." ”

Fang Yaya said: "You deserve it, didn't you say to take the national highway, whoever let you be cheap halfway, you have to turn to the highway." ”

Chi Wei smiled bitterly: "I don't want to take a shortcut." The map shows that this section of the road is not blocked, and whoever thinks I will not be able to get down if I go up, and it is all blocked on this side of the service area. Then again, the gas stations in the service area are out of gas, which is really nonsense. ”

Qin Yiyan made a waltz dance expression, and then wished Chi Wei a good night. Chi Wei wanted to cry without tears, and just posted a sentence begging for mercy and love in the group, he was choked to death by Fang Yaya's words. Fang Yaya said: "Forget it, the phone is out of battery, save some electricity, and I'll talk to you tomorrow." ”

Chi Wei looked confused, it's me on the road, what kind of electricity do you save at home.
