The investigation is still continuing, but the suspects and the people who reported the case have not yet arrived; Liu Yan, Zhang Qian, and Song Tao can only wait here.

After a while, the policeman named Ding Jia finally brought in a person, a cleaning aunt in her forties and fifties, wearing an apron, who seemed to be really going to work.

As soon as Ding Jia came over, he was reassigned by Song Tao and asked him to go to the security room to bring someone over.

Ding Jia didn't complain, and passed without saying a word.

Liu Yan looked the cleaning aunt up and down, and suddenly said, "Auntie, what are you doing?"

Aunt Cleaning replied, "Little sister, are you a policeman?"

Liu Yan was instantly embarrassed, as if she was really not a policeman and had no right to ask.

When Liu Yan was embarrassed, Zhang Qian stood up and spoke, "Auntie, please cooperate with us and answer her words." ”

"Okay, well, Auntie answered you, what do you want to ask?"

Liu Yan said, "Auntie, what I want to ask is, how did you find the deceased?"

"Well, according to my work routine, I have to come to this room at night to clean up, but the door is locked, so I go to open the door, and when I open the door, I see the owner, and he is dead there, and I am in a hurry, so I call the police. ”

Liu Yan nodded, as if there was nothing wrong, "Auntie, let me ask you again, why did you come to this room?"

"Didn't I say that? I'm here to clean the room. ”

"Then why do you want to come here to clean the room, shouldn't the owner handle the cleaning himself?"

Aunt Cleaning waved her hand, "No, no, it's different now, our community has begun to implement cleaning and personal hygiene, so it's very busy." ”

Liu Yan frowned, can this be done? hesitated for a moment, and then asked, "Auntie, then let me ask you another question, that is, the door is locked, so how did you get in?"

"I've got the key here. The cleaning aunt took out a large set of keys from her pocket and shook them in front of everyone, "Those who agree to clean up personal hygiene will be given an extra key, so I have it here." ”

Liu Yan nodded, it turned out to be like this, but she always felt that something was missing, "Auntie, can you recall the picture at that time? ”

Song Tao listened from the side, silent, to see what this Liu Yan was going to do.

The cleaning aunt thought about it carefully, and then said what happened: "Things are like this, according to the order of work, this room should be cleaned today, so I came over; at first I had a knock on the door, and then no one knocked on the door for a long time, thinking that it was not there, so I opened the door myself." ”

Aunt Cleaning said again, "As soon as I opened the door, I was scared stupid, and the corpse appeared in front of my eyes. After saying this, Aunt Cleaning pointed to the corpse, "It's there, but~, but~." ”

Liu Yan's interest came at once, and she asked, "Auntie, but what, tell me quickly." ”

"Oh, yes, before I came, I seemed to see the room key, right in front of the corpse. ”

After hearing this, Zhang Qian frowned and shouted, "Ding Jia, Ding Jia." ”

Song Tao asked, "What are you looking for Ding Jia?"

"Ding Jia came up to look for me more than me, so he may know where the key is. ”

At this time, the policeman who was originally guarding the door came over, "Captain, Zhang Qian, take a look at whether it is this key." ”

I saw the policeman who came over, with a key in his hand, wrapped in a transparent plastic bag.

Song Tao took it and showed it to the cleaning aunt, "Auntie, did you mean this?"

Aunt Cleaning looked at it and was sure that it was the key, "That's right, this is it." ”

The policeman said, "Captain, I'll go then." ”

Song Tao nodded, "Well, let's go over." ”

Found the key, Liu Yan snatched the key from Song Tao's hand, looked closely, it seemed that something was wrong, from his bag, took out a small magnifying glass, and looked at the metal key to zoom in.

Song Tao said, "Hey, what are you doing?"

After reading it, she put away the magnifying glass, and Liu Yan said, "There are traces of friction on one side of this key. ”

Song Tao took the key and took a closer look, if it wasn't for Liu Yan to say it, otherwise he really wouldn't have noticed it at all;

Liu Yan's answer was very frank, "I don't know, it may be useful or it may not be useful, I can only look at the suspect's testimony." ”

There was indeed some truth in what he said, so Song Tao didn't ask any more questions, and looked outside the house, wondering in his heart, why hasn't this Ding Jia brought anyone over yet?

After a while, Ding Jia, who everyone was expecting, finally brought someone back; Liu Yan took a closer look, and looked quite familiar, this person was a thief, and his first feeling was that he was not a good person.

Suddenly Liu Yan remembered, no wonder she looked so familiar, it seemed to be a thief some time ago, who often went to his own community to steal things, and was once caught red-handed by the security guard, and then ran away in chaos; ”

But the thief will admit that he stole something, and said to Ding Jia, who caught him, "Comrade policeman, you have misunderstood, I am a good person, and the security guard also said just now, I did not commit a crime." ”

Ding Jia didn't listen to these words, since the captain let him bring him over, then there was a reason for the captain; Ding Jia brought the person to Song Tao, "Captain, this person brought it to you." ”

The man raised his head and said to Song Tao, "Comrade policeman, you misunderstood, I'm a good person, how could I steal things." ”

As soon as he heard this, it was obviously a lie, Liu Yan said, "Don't listen to his Song Tao, he is a thief, and he has been there several times in our community." ”

How could that thief be easy to provoke, he came up and scolded Liu Yan, "Shut up and stinky mother-in-law." ”

Liu Yan was furious at that time, rolled up her sleeves, and looked like she was going to fight, "Oh, little rabbit, you are not too bold, dare to scold me." ”

Zhang Qian grabbed Liu Yan, "Sister-in-law, sister-in-law, you are angry, let me come." ”

Zhang Qian turned around and yelled at the man, "Hey, what's your name?"

When he saw the police, the thief became accustomed to it, and soon confessed, and said with a smile, "Hehe, comrade policeman, I am a good person, please believe me." ”

Zhang Qian kicked the man's body, "Believe in your fart, give me an honest answer, otherwise you will suffer." ”

"Yes, yes, I will cooperate. ”

"Tell me what your name is. ”

"Comrade policeman, I'm really a good person, my name is Zhao Ritian, I haven't done anything illegal. ”

Hearing this name, Liu Yan couldn't help but laugh out loud, remembering a common name some time ago, it seems to be Zhao Ritian;

Song Tao asked, "What are you laughing at?"

Liu Yan waved her hand, "It's nothing, forgive me for laughing low." ”

Soon everyone forgot about this, and Zhang Qian continued to ask, "Your name is Zhao Ritian, right? Let me ask you, what are you doing here today, that is, on this floor?"

"Wronged, comrade policeman, I didn't steal, really, please believe me. ”
