Chapter 350: The Northwest Case (8)
Originally, it was not a big deal to live in her own hotel, but what made Qiao Yan feel most uncomfortable was that I was afraid that Xia Yang's subordinates would definitely be extremely "enthusiastic", which made her very uncomfortable. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
Think about it, the eldest lady of the Qiao family lives in the Mingda Hotel, not to mention the whole clearance, at least the floor where she lives, the security arranges dozens of people, and all the guests change rooms?
There's no need to be so excited......
It was Lu Yun who checked in, while Lin Lei and Qiao Yan were waiting for her on the sofa in a remote corner of the hall after giving their ID cards to Lu Yun.
When the hotel front desk clerk registered the ID card information, he saw the word "Qiao Yan" and seemed to be very familiar, and he had heard it somewhere, but he couldn't remember it for a while.
With her low level, maybe she has heard Qiao Yan's name once or twice when she chatted since she joined the company, and it is really normal to be familiar but not remember.
In addition, this is Xiayang City in the northwest, thousands of kilometers away from Nanguan City on the southeast coast where Qiao Yan, the eldest lady of the Qiao family, is located, and there are many people with the same name and surname in the world......
Therefore, the check-in process was very smooth, and Qiao Yan's identity was not noticed by the hotel attendant.
After Lu Yun booked a suite for each person, she took the room card and walked to Lin Lei and Qiao Yan. Lu Yun handed the room card to Lin Lei and Qiao Yan, and everyone took the elevator to the twelfth floor together.
After running outside for a day, everyone went back to their rooms and rested early......
Nothing was said all night.
Early the next morning.
Just after seven o'clock, Lin Lei woke up.
After washing up and eating breakfast, about five minutes to eight o'clock, Lin Lei, Lu Yun and Qiao Yan walked to the outside of the hotel, and after meeting Li Jin for a while, everyone set off to Shanggu Village.
Unexpectedly, as soon as the three of them walked out of the hotel, they found that Li Jin had already been waiting on the side of the road in a Toyota off-road vehicle.
This car should be an old Toyota off-road, the car knows that it is some years old at a glance, but it is very clean - so early, the car wash is not open, either last night, or this morning, Li Jin should have washed the car himself.
After everyone got into the car, Lin Lei sat in the co-pilot, and Qiao Yan and Lu Yun sat in the back seat.
The car started and drove towards the destination of the trip, Shanggu Village, Xiayang City.
……
After leaving the city, the car first turned into the national highway, then the provincial road, and finally a rural road about ten kilometers long.
This section of the road is the most difficult to walk, not to mention the potholes, the key is that the road is too narrow.
The width of this road can only accommodate one car on one side, and it will be very troublesome if there is a car coming from the opposite side.
Fortunately, there are many such road forest mines, and the solution to the problem is that every other distance, the road will become wider, forming a meeting point.
If two cars are "coming on", then whoever is close to the meeting point will reverse to the meeting point and let the opposite car go first.
Fortunately, it is relatively remote here, and although there are occasional farm vehicles, they are much less than those in the city.
Probably less than ten cars gave way, and at about half past nine in the morning, Lin Lei and his party finally came to Shanggu Village.
When the car drove to the entrance of the village, Lin Lei took a general look at the whole picture of the ancient village.
The ancient village is located next to a river beach, and the scale of the whole village is relatively large-
Although the location is a bit remote, it can be seen that the population is not large.
Since there is a river near the village, the land is quite fertile, and farmland and orchards abound.
At the entrance of the village, a small green and white van is parked, and a sign hangs on the front windshield of the van - "Ancient - Xiayang".
Lin Lei knew at a glance that this was a rural passenger car, which was specially designed to run back and forth between Shanggu Village and Xiayang City.
He had already entered the village, and Li Jin's speed was slowing down.
Seeing that Lin Lei was looking at the shuttle bus on the side of the road at the entrance of the village, Li Jin explained: "There are three guests a day from the ancient village to our Xiayang City-hello, that's it." ”
"Is it three trips in the morning, noon and evening?" Lin Lei squinted his eyes slightly and asked lightly.
Li Jin nodded and replied, "Hmm." There is a trip at 7 a.m., 12:30 p.m., and 4 p.m. The car parked on the side of the road now should have come from Xiayang early in the morning. The bus departs at noon, and it has to stop here for nearly three hours!"
Lin Lei frowned slightly and said nothing.
Qiao Yan, who was sitting in the back row, felt a little strange and asked Li Jindao: "Officer Li, this is not scientific! How do the passenger buses here be scheduled and scheduled? It's too wasteful of resources, isn't it? Just parked? Don't run other routes?"
Li Jin smiled bitterly: "Forensic Doctor Qiao, we are not as good as the eastern provinces here, there are not so many customers. In some remote places, rural passenger transport does not pay attention to making money, and many lines are losing money, and the main purpose is to facilitate the travel of the vast number of peasants. ”
As soon as Li Jin explained this, Qiao Yan immediately understood.
Although there is a large population in Shanggu Village, most of them are left-behind old men and aunts, women and children, and there are not many young and middle-aged people.
There must be people who go into the city to do errands, but they are scarce and the time is very inconsistent.
If the car runs diligently and there are only three or five passengers, should it go or not?
A passenger car with few passengers, the more it runs, the more it loses. It is better to depart at a fixed time, so as to save some.
Of course, although the bus is idle at the entrance of the village, it seems to be a bit wasteful, but this kind of small bread looks like an old car that has been running for many years, and it doesn't seem to be of much use in other places, even if it is to exert residual heat......
Li Jin parked the off-road vehicle on a flat ground at the entrance of the village, and after everyone got off the car in turn, Li Jin asked Lin Lei: "Lin Lei, since you are an expert, how to investigate after coming here is completely up to you to count ......."
"Expert?" Lin Lei smiled slightly, as if he was a little dissatisfied, "I'm not a brick family, I'm just a policeman." Don't give me such a big hat, haha!"
Originally, Li Jin was still a little guilty in his heart, after all, now he and Lin Lei are not at the same level - Lin Lei's ability is to solve countless major cases, which has been proven - which makes Li Jin have to be cautious, for fear that his old classmates will be unhappy.
Now Lin Lei's joke suddenly brought the relationship between the two closer again.
Come to think of it, everyone is not only old classmates, but also only in their twenties, so they will not engage in officialdom......
Li Jin nodded, indicating that he understood: "Well, I know." Well, I'll never say more compliments, but I'll listen to you all about how to investigate. I'm out of tricks, I'm ashamed to say it, I've been here dozens of times, and I haven't found any clues......"
