When I returned to Beijing from Inner Mongolia, I was really tired after a period of the leftover issues of the 360 bus disappearance, maybe it was a side effect of the anesthetic bomb, in the past, I slept five or six hours a day, and I was full of energy, but now, after sleeping for ten hours, my head is still dizzy.

During this period, it seemed deliberate, and Team Cao asked Zeng Qian to come to the small courtyard to see me. While Zeng Qian was visiting my collection in the house, I quietly asked Team Cao, "What's the matter?" ”

Team Cao smiled bitterly, "It's far away, I asked her out, I never agreed, only when I said to come to see you, the little girl agreed, think about it, it's more than ten years old, two generations, and many ideas are different." ”

"Hehe, don't worry, feelings are all about time, no one can say clearly, although I have always been alone, but I have seen too much, marriage, marriage, marriage in the past life, fate in this life, I see that you have hope" I smiled and enlightened him.

"I don't think so, whatever I talk to her, she is absent-minded, only when it comes to you, she comes to the spirit, and it may not be me and her who are destined. "Team Cao was talking abruptly, I suddenly noticed that Team Cao didn't take a big teapot today, but a delicate stainless steel thermos cup in his hand, with a line of small red letters on it, it seems to be the 40th anniversary of the establishment of the Institute of Zoology and Zoology of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, and I can't help laughing.

"Team Cao, I'm an old man, and Zeng Qian's friendship between teachers and students, don't you see it? People call this wanting to capture the old and indulge, you, it's okay to look at the thirty-six strategies, what siege Wei rescued Zhao, the sound of attacking the west, and the bottom of the kettle to draw salary, all of which are the experience of the ancients chasing my fair lady. ”

As she was talking, Zeng Qian came out of the house and asked what we were laughing at? I noticed that she was wearing a light blue dress today, which was completely different from the usual dressing style.

"We're talking about a strange case related to love, Team Cao, you tell Xiao Zeng about it. I pulled the rattan chair next to me over and asked Zeng Qian to sit down.

Team Cao's face was red and white for a while, and he didn't know what to say for a while.

"Team Cao, he's a stuffy gourd, good stories in his mouth, it's become very boring, let's Uncle Chang tell me. Zeng Qian sat down next to me, blinking and staring at me with big eyes.

I glared at Team Cao, "It's not a secret matter, Xiao Zeng wants to hear it, what are you grinding there?" After speaking, he pointed his finger at his head and turned it around twice, which means that I have set up the stage for you, and you can make it round yourself.

Team Cao was stunned for a long time before saying, "Okay, then I'll talk about it again, it just so happens that you guys also help me analyze and analyze, this matter is really strange." Team Cao pulled the chair forward, put the thermos cup on the table, and began to speak.

We only listened to the beginning of the story, and we were deeply attracted by the story, I leaned on the back of the rattan chair, unwilling to get up again, Zeng Qian became quiet, the courtyard was unusually quiet, only the slightly hoarse voice of the Cao team remained.

Team Cao has a child surnamed Lu and named Lu Qing. According to the old saying in Beijing, the two families are considered to be good families, and they can entrust their wives and children to their friendships. Lu Qing and Team Cao, grew up together, went to school together, and even the police academy was a class, but after graduation, Team Cao had better grades and was assigned to the criminal police team, and Lu Qing became an anti-drug policeman. But the dormitories of the two are divided into a tube building on the edge of Tianning Temple, one in the east and one in the west.

Unlike Team Cao's late maturity in love life, Lu Qing had a girlfriend very early, named Xie Manhong, who was a nurse in the Third Hospital of the First Hospital. The two have been dating for six or seven years, because Lu Qing's work is very busy, and a business trip is a month, which delays the marriage of the two.

It wasn't until May Day in 90 that the two of them did a big thing, and the new house was the dormitory in Lu Qing's tube building. After marriage, the couple was very affectionate, and Lu Qing also specially asked for a leave of absence and took Xie Manhong to Hainan for a honeymoon.

The two of them came back, and they were happy with the Cao team. Xie Manhong's father died early, she has been a good hand at housework since she was a child, especially cooking good dishes, very ordinary ingredients in Xie Manhong's hands, can always be reborn and change thousands of flavors.

Xie Manhong is reasonable and outgoing, Cao Team and Lu Qing are small, basically and Xie Manhong have known each other for six or seven years, and they can't be more familiar, so they go to Lu Qing's house every day to rub rice, and then they simply send beef and seafood from the unit to their homes, and they don't take them at home, and send them directly to Lu Qing's house.

To what extent is Xie Manhong's extroversion? When eating, you can fight with the Cao team, Lu Qingren is strong, but the amount of wine is average, Xie Manhong accompanies the Cao team to drink, the two often kill a bottle and two pots, Xie Manhong's face remains the same, a few times, the two of them drank the third bottle, the Cao team collapsed on the small sofa, and it was impossible to go back to his room, Xie Manhong also cleaned up the table and washed the dishes and chopsticks. Only then did he help Lu Qing into the bedroom.

But Team Cao found that Xie Manhong still had some changes after getting married, for example, she often stayed alone in the house in a daze, and sometimes talked to herself. I like to have a short time with my neighbor's aunt, and I often go out to climb the mountains together, Cao Team thought, it is estimated that Lu Qinglao is on a business trip, Xie Manhong often has a shift off, and it is annoying to stay alone at home, right?

But not long after, something really happened to the tube building.

At the end of the nineties, Lu Qing went on a business trip to Yunnan again, and he went for almost a month. Suddenly, one night, Lu Qing called the Cao team, her voice was a little anxious, saying that she had called Xie Manhong for a few days, but no one answered at home, thinking that she had gone back to her parents' house and didn't take it seriously, but just now her mother-in-law called and said that she also called Xie Manhong, but no one answered. The mother-in-law was worried that something was wrong with her daughter, so she put down the phone and rushed to the tube building. Lu Qing was not sure, so he asked Team Cao to go over and take a look.

Team Cao put on his clothes and came out of the east end of the building, just after walking a few steps, he saw Xie Manhong's mother coming up from the stairs, Team Cao said hello, and went to knock on the door of Lu Qing's house, knocked for a long time, but no one answered. Team Cao asked Xie Manhong's mother, will Xie Manhong go to friends and classmates? Xie Manhong's mother shook her head and said that no one answered the phone for three days, and it was time to come back to someone's house.

Team Cao had an ominous premonition in his heart, and without thinking about it anymore, he kicked the door open. As soon as you enter the house, it is a cold feeling, and although the house is very clean, it is still strong. Pressing the light, the two saw that the bedroom door was open, and when they pushed it open, they saw Xie Manhong's mother collapse on the ground.

Xie Manhong tied several scarves into a rope and hung herself from the heating pipe on the roof, her skin had turned blue and black, and it appeared that she had been dead for more than two days. But it seems that Xie Manhong's expression is not as hideous as the hanged man at all, but very calm, as if he has fallen asleep, and there is a smile on the corner of his mouth.

Team Cao's professionalism is very sensitive, and she asked Xie Manhong's mother not to touch anything at the scene and go to the outhouse to call the police. I made a careful survey of the bedroom.

The windows of the bedroom are well closed and locked, and when the door was broken just now, the Cao team also knew that the door was locked from the inside, the lock was good, and there was a door plug inside, and there was no trace of outsiders entering.

Xie Manhong was dressed neatly, it seemed to be the same dress she wore on her wedding day, a dark red embroidered cheongsam. The face was obviously carefully painted, and the hanging scarf was also wrung with some effort. On the bedside table were the family's passbooks, cash, household registration book, and marriage certificate, obviously afraid that Lu Qing would not be able to find these important things when he came back.

There were still leftovers in the kitchen, a half-drunk bottle of Jian Nanchun, it seemed that Xie Manhong had made himself a hearty meal before leaving.

All the evidence at the scene pointed to that Xie Manhong committed suicide, and after a long period of consideration before committing suicide, he was very careful and well prepared when he left, and he should have hanged himself calmly.

But the more sufficient the evidence, the more Team Cao muttered in his heart, because he couldn't think of the reason for Xie Manhong's suicide, he knew Lu Qing and Xie Manhong, they had a solid relationship, they didn't even quarrel, the two families also had a good relationship, and Lu Qing didn't have anything to do outside, even if there was, it should be Team Cao who knew first.

Of course, for Xie Manhong's death, it is not the Cao team alone that can't figure it out, but everyone. At the insistence of Xie Manhong's mother, the Public Security Bureau conducted an autopsy, and there were no external injuries, and he was indeed hanged.

"What about Lu Qing, what happened to Lu Qing after he came back?" Hearing this, Zeng Qian was completely immersed in this case and asked involuntarily.

Team Cao picked up the thermos cup, took a sip, held the cup in his hand, and continued: "What can Lu Qing do when he comes back?" Xie Manhong didn't leave a word for Lu Qing, and he didn't call him before he died, he hanged himself inexplicably, the most bitter thing was Lu Qing, he didn't even have the courage to guess and explore the truth. Hey, Chang, it's time for dinner again, I'll go to Hutongkou to get two dishes and come back, do you have a bar here?"

"Yes, the wine pipe is enough, do you drink Lao Fen wine?" I looked at the sky, and the sun was already setting without paying attention. replied on his lips, but he was still thinking about Lu Qing's story in his heart, and he always felt that something seemed wrong, and he couldn't react again.

Team Cao answered, beamed with joy, and ran out with a puff of smoke. Zeng Qian helped me refill the tea and asked, "Uncle Chang, Team Cao must have concealed important clues, what about your wine, you say, what can't Xie Manhong think about, can't discuss with Lu Qing, do you have to find a short meeting?" I smiled at her, "Xiao Zeng, the two of you, one set of wine, one set of words, the cooperation is quite tacit." ”

Zeng Qian's face turned red, lowered her head, I pretended not to see it, and continued, "You're right, you can't discuss it with Lu Qing, and you have found a short-term view, it must be a big deal, or a big thing that can't be let Lu Qing know." You just think along the lines. ”

"Could it be that the previous boyfriend has been recovered, and it won't be suicide, or the creditor has caught up with the door and can't hide? However, you must think it's a demon, isn't it, Uncle Chang?" Zeng Yan frowned, thinking about it all the time.

"Is she so peaceful when she hangs herself? Will she cook a meal before leaving? Will she put on the clothes she wore when she got married? Women tend to take small things very seriously, but turn a blind eye to some big things. ”

Zeng Qian pouted: "You men aren't you, right? It should be said that most people are like this, I have to remind you that your thoughts like this are very bad for you to find an aunt, Uncle Chang, if you want me to see, there is also a possibility, that is, Xie Manhong is terminally ill and doesn't want to delay Lu Qing, so he committed suicide." ”

"Xiao Zeng, I object to the first half of your words, and there is some truth in the second half, but if a person is terminally ill, there must be someone to talk to, who else can she talk to about this matter except Xie Manhong's mother, her mother does not know, otherwise she will never ask for an autopsy. ”

As we spoke, Team Cao pushed the door into the courtyard and moved the stir-fry and rice he had packed back to the table in the house. While he was preparing the dishes and chopsticks, Zeng Qian asked Team Cao: "Team Cao, did Xie Manhong commit suicide because he was terminally ill and didn't want Lu Qing to know?"

Team Cao looked Zeng Qian up and down, and said, "Xiao Zeng, have you read too many Qiong Yao novels, or have you watched too many TV series? Zeng Qian glared at Team Cao, and didn't help him with the dishes and chopsticks, and sat next to me, waiting for dinner.

After drinking two cups with Team Cao, Team Cao continued to talk.

Lu Qing belongs to the secret service department of the Public Security Bureau, and the bureau still attaches great importance to Xie Manhong's suicide case, from the autopsy to the scene investigation, and a few days after Lu Qing returned, the report also came out, it was a suicide. But why Xie Manhong committed suicide has always been a mystery.

Lu Qing took Xie Manhong's ashes home, and put them on Xie Manhong's dresser, but people couldn't extricate themselves from their grief and became depressed day by day. The bureau gave Lu Qing a three-month long vacation, but basically Lu Qing drank for three months. At the beginning, Team Cao always went to accompany them, and a bottle of white wine was a point for the two brothers, and Lu Qing quickly fell asleep. Not long after, Lu Qing's alcohol consumption rose, and he was already on par with Team Cao, and what was even worse was that after drinking some wine, Lu Qing dragged him to ask him non-stop, back and forth on that one question, "Old Cao, why did you say that Manhong hanged herself, what did she not think about?"

The Cao team checked around and found that Xie Manhong's life was very regular and simple, and there were not many people in contact, and she had a good relationship with her neighbors, and she was usually fine, and she always went to a nearby kindergarten to help a friend of hers to teach the children. No one who knew her could believe that she would kill herself, and that she had hanged herself.

If you can't find a result, you can only persuade it. But Lu Qing rested for half a year before he could ease up, but the leaders of the bureau saw that he couldn't enter the working state at all, so they simply arranged a job for him in logistics and asked him to adjust and adjust, this adjustment is a year, during which Team Cao knew that Lu Qing had also checked privately, but there should be no clues.

Team Cao discussed with Lu Qing's other old classmates, and Lu Qing couldn't be so depressed. I have to divert his attention and simply introduce a new girlfriend, everyone organized a dinner together, invited a single female college teacher, and prepared to match, but during the meal, as soon as Team Cao introduced Lu Qing, Lu Qing's face was pulled down, and he didn't give everyone face, so he turned around and left. For this matter, I ignored the Cao team and a few of them for many days.
