In fact, don't look at Xie Jibai's appearance that he is a little difficult to contact, he is actually the most soft-hearted person.

The little boy followed them to the supermarket, and the three of them bought a lot of things, and then carried them home to prepare a hearty hot pot for dinner.

Xie Jibai's house was so clean, the little boy was a little timid, but after entering the house, he was a little frightened and didn't dare to go inside.

Tang Xin couldn't help laughing, took the little boy to change his slippers, and then took him to wash his hands and change his clothes, and asked him to go to his room to rest for a while.

Xie Jibai was already worried about a lot of ingredients, Tang Xin bought too much, and it was really difficult for him to stuff all the things into the refrigerator.

Tang Xin walked in and said, "I'll come, you go and rest for a while, I'm quite tired from running today." ”

"It's fine." Xie Jibai said.

Tang Xin began to wash and chop vegetables, and Xie Jibai stood at the door of the kitchen and did not leave.

"Why did you bring him back?" Xie Jibai asked.

This "he", of course, refers to the little boy.

Tang Xin smiled and said, "It's nothing, it's just that my head is hot, and I feel a little sympathetic." ”

"Freemasonry?" Xie Jibai raised his eyebrows.

Tang Xin said: "When I was very young, my parents passed away, and I don't even remember what my parents looked like. My parents were not in business, they didn't have a lot of money, and a large group of relatives didn't want to raise me. Although I was very young at the time, I remember that scene very well. Later, my uncle came back from abroad and took me away. ”

"You're in luck." Xie Jibai said.

"Indeed." Tang Xin said.

The two of them did not continue the topic, but Tang Xin knew that Xie Jibai's experience was somewhat similar to his, and even more pitiful. After the death of Xie Jibai's parents, he has always lived alone, although he has a nominal guardian, but it is almost the same as not.

Xie Jibai named the hot pot he wanted to eat, and he ate hot pot in the summer, and he was sweating all the time even if the air conditioner was on.

Xie Jibai only eats clear soup pots, he used to eat hot pot by himself, just pour a pot of mineral water, and then start to dip the vegetables in it. It's so crystal clear, nothing.

This time, under Tang Xin's strong request, Xie Jibai finally added a section of green onion to the bottom of the clear soup pot to taste, a piece of shiitake mushroom to enhance the freshness, and nothing else was added.

The little boy ate hot pot for the first time, his eyes were shining, he was very excited, but he was very timid.

Tang Xin finished packing his things, and saw that the time was already past twelve o'clock in the middle of the night. The little one was already asleep on the bed in his room.

Tang Xin closed the door and walked out, just in time to see Xie Jibai coming out of the bathroom.

Tang Xin said: "Can I sleep in the living room? Today. ”

"Whatever." Xie Jibai said: "When you get up in the morning, you have to tidy up. ”

"Of course." Tang Xin said.

Xie Jibai nodded and said, "Good night." ”

Xie Jibai always felt that it would be very troublesome to live with others, but he found that in fact, he just thought that the trouble was too terrible.

He had a good night's sleep, and when he woke up the next day, the living room was tidy again, Tang Xin was cooking, and the little boy was lying at the kitchen door watching him cook.

Xie Jibai couldn't help but shake his head, feeling that Forensic Doctor Tang was quite good at taking care of children sometimes. Maybe it's the legend, all ages?

After breakfast, they went to the bureau, and when they arrived at the office, there was no one else.

Xie Jibai turned on the computer and received the email, it was the information sent to him by Chen Yancai, and it seemed that there were quite a lot of things.

Tang Xin walked over and asked, "What are these?" ”

Xie Jibai said: "The information of the city's hospital. Do you remember the photo that was sandwiched in the book yesterday? ”

Tang Xin nodded and said, "You asked Chen Yancai to sort out the information for you?" ”

Yesterday, there was a photo in the book with a gray cover, which looked like a picture of a hospital ward, and the room in the photo was very old and looked a little old.

There are many hospitals in the city, as well as some private clinics, etc., and Chen Yancai has sorted out a lot of information, but if you exclude the better conditions, you can eliminate most of them.

Xie Jibai compiled a list of several hospitals and marked them on the map.

Tang Xin said: "Why is it a photo of a hospital room? ”

"I don't know." Xie Jibai said: "I don't know what it means. ”

Tang Xin said: "Is it related to our current case? ”

Xie Jibai still shook his head: "Maybe it's okay, but there is a little clue that we can't ignore." ”

Xie Jibai suddenly turned his head and said, "By the way, we went to find Kou Xin yesterday and had no result. I think maybe we can start with something else. ”

"Where?" Tang Xin asked.

"That Miss Mu." Xie Jibai said.

Tang Xin frowned and said, "Miss Mu? ”

Xie Jibai said: "The Miss Mu we met yesterday should have cooperated with Kou Xin's company, maybe she can learn something." ”

Tang Xin said: "It's possible. ”

Xie Jibai said, "Why don't we go to Miss Mu and ask for it later." ”

"It's fine." Tang Xin said.

While the two were talking, the little boy sat on a chair and looked at Xie Jibai's computer screen from a distance. On the computer screen was a photograph, the one sandwiched in a gray book.

Yesterday, because it was too late, they couldn't send the little boy to the relief station or somewhere else, so Tang Xin and Xie Jibai took care of him all night. They were too busy with work to take in the child all the time, especially since he needed some psychiatric treatment.

Tang Xin said: "Before we go to find Miss Mu, let's send this child away." ”

Xie Jibai nodded.

When the two of them paid attention to the little boy again, they noticed that he was staring at the picture on the screen.

Xie Jibai frowned, suddenly stood up and walked over, and asked in a low voice, "Do you know the place in the photo?" ”

The little boy was startled when he heard the voice, and then he recovered from his stunned state, looked at Xie Jibai and nodded slowly, and said, "Well......"

Tang Xin was stunned for a moment and asked, "Where is this?" ”

The little boy stared at the photo, as if he was lost in thought again, and only said for a long time: "It's hell......"

Tang Xin looked like Xie Jibai in puzzlement.

Xie Jibai had been observing the little boy's expression just now, and when he was in a trance, he was not fantasizing, but recalling a memory, which was real. So "hell" is not a virtual concept, perhaps just an exaggerated description.

Xie Jibai whispered, "What kind of place is hell?" Can you tell us about it? ”

The boy seemed to be reluctant to talk about it, but eventually he spoke, saying, "Where I escaped......"

Xie Jibai thought it was the little boy's home, but it wasn't.

The boy was an orphan, and the place he escaped from was actually a shelter.

It is not an ordinary shelter, but a special shelter, which not only houses orphans or the elderly, but also some people with mental problems, and provides them with free and free relief and treatment.

The little boy knew that the room in the photo was a room in the shelter.

They were given an important clue, but it was unbelievable why the man would give them it.

When everyone arrived, Xie Jibai explained the situation.

Xie Jibai said: "No matter what, we have to investigate, Chen Yancai, you first check the information of this shelter, the more detailed the better." ”

Chen Yancai nodded.

Chen Wanting said: "We have more points to check now. Kou Xin will continue to investigate, this shelter will also be investigated, and He Peixing's ex-wife. When I went to the funeral home yesterday to investigate, I also found a problem, which was a colleague of Ho Pei Hing. ”

Chen Wanting said that yesterday he went to the funeral home to continue investigating the death of He Peixing, and a person who worked the night shift with He Peixing said that on the morning of He Peixing's death, he had seen He Peixing at around 5 o'clock, and He Peixing was still alive. Later, at around 5:20, someone left the lounge where He Peixing was staying. However, the passage was quite dark at that time, and he couldn't see it very clearly. is a man in work clothes, and his back looks very much like his colleague Zhang Jianghao

The colleague said that it was five o'clock when he got off the night shift that day, and when he went to the lounge for the first time, he saw He Peixing chatting with another colleague, Zhang Jianghao, but at that time, He Peixing's feelings didn't seem to be very good, and he was very low.

The colleague didn't know what they were talking about, and the two of them hadn't talked anymore when he entered.

The colleague hurriedly greeted them and left, leaving at about 5:03, and he hurried home, otherwise there would be a traffic jam in the morning rush hour.

However, when he reached the station, he suddenly found that his key had fallen into the pocket of his overalls and had not been taken out. He hurriedly ran back to the funeral home, and when he arrived at the funeral home, he took out his mobile phone and glanced at the time, it was 5:18.

In the passage outside the lounge, he saw the back of Zhang Jianghao leaving in a hurry. He didn't care at the time, and was about to go into the break room to get his key. However, he saw his key on the ground outside the break room and dropped it on the ground.

The colleague picked up the key and didn't go into the break room again, thinking that maybe he was too careless, and the key fell out of his pocket and didn't find it. After that, he left the funeral parlor and went home.

Tang Xin said: "He Peixing's death time is around five to half past five, that is to say, when He Peixing died, it is very likely that Zhang Jianghao was with the deceased?" ”

Chen Wanting nodded.

"But what's interesting." Chen Wanting continued: "I also found this Zhang Jianghao, he didn't admit that he was with He Peixing that morning, saying that the colleague recognized the wrong person. ”

"Recognize the wrong person?" Xie Jibai said: "Didn't you say hello?" How could it be possible to recognize the wrong person. ”

Chen Wanting said: "Yes, that colleague is very sure that he didn't recognize the wrong person, and said that he did say hello to Zhang Jianghao and He Peixing, He Peixing was depressed and didn't speak, but Zhang Jianghao also answered him." ”

"It seems that there is something wrong with this Zhang Jianghao." Xie Jibai said.

"There's something more interesting." Chen Wanting said again.

Chen Yancai couldn't help but say, "Boss, don't gasp, I'm going to suffocate when I hear it." ”

Chen Wanting said succinctly: "Zhang Jianghao has an alibi. ”

"Huh?" Liu Zhihui scratched his head and said, "Alibi? ”
