In the past two days, he has been to the scene of the murder, and he has also been to the kiln where Li Baifu works, checked the place where Li Baifu lived, and asked Li Baifu's workers, but the results were similar to what the criminal police team had learned.

Ling Xu found the person in charge of the kiln factory, the person in charge is called Tan Youcai, 61 years old this year, others call him Lao Tan, Lao Tan has been contracting this kiln factory for more than 30 years, at that time this kiln factory was a pillar enterprise in the town, and later because of the land rehabilitation policy and environmental protection policy, the kiln factory is now facing the situation of being closed.

Knowing Ling Xu's intention, Lao Tan led Ling Xu to the back of the brick kiln factory, pointed to a dilapidated brick house, and said that this was Li Baifu's dormitory, which was a collective dormitory before, and there were originally six workers living in it.

But since Li Baifu's accident, the people from the Public Security Bureau found this place, took a few items from the dormitory, and then asked Lao Tan to transfer the workers in the dormitory to other dormitories, and told Lao Tan that before the case is solved, this dormitory will be temporarily closed, and the items in the dormitory must be kept as they are.

After walking around the dormitory, Ling Xu didn't find anything valuable, according to Lao Tan's instructions, Ling Xu walked to Li Baifu's bed, and took a look, there was no futon on the bed, only an empty bed board remained.

On the wall leaning against the head of the bed, there was a table, where there were originally a few daily necessities left by Li Baifu, which were some toothbrush cups, fast food boxes, water cups, and other items, which were later extracted by the county criminal police team.

Lao Tan told Ling Xu that Li Baifu has no family, doesn't like to drink, can't smoke, has no familiar friends, doesn't play with network communication tools, and doesn't even use a mobile phone.

After walking around Li Baifu's dormitory, Ling Xu didn't find the clues he wanted, so he asked Lao Tan to call Li Baifu's roommates over to see if he could get valuable clues from those roommates.

Maybe the people from the criminal police team also let Lao Tan do this last time, so when he heard Ling Xu's words, Lao Tan didn't hesitate at all, and went directly to the cave where the kiln factory burned bricks to find someone.

After a while, Lao Tan led five honest-looking men from the cave, those people were working at this time, dirty, although it was winter, but the clothes of those workers were soaked with sweat.

After a few brief inquiries, Ling Xu learned that these five people were named Lin Mushan, Tang Dazhu, Tang Erzhu, Han Pingshun, and Liu Jia'an, among which Tang Dazhu and Tang Erzhu were brothers, Bai people, from Cainan Province. Lin Mushan, Han Pingshun, and Liu Jia'an are fellow villagers from Yunnan-Guizhou Province, and the three of them are from the Yi nationality.

Tang Dazhu and the five of them, all over 50 years old, because of the low salary in their hometown, so they all came out to work, because of the lack of education, and the age is relatively old, so they can only find some jobs that do not require a diploma, regardless of age, looking for them, and finally can only burn bricks in some small-scale kiln factories.

The faces of the five people were a little dark, their hair was slightly gray, they had a simple and honest expression on their faces, and their hands were covered with calluses, perhaps because they were a little nervous when they saw Ling Xu's police uniform, and when they talked to Ling Xu, their faces were a little unnatural.

After exchanging a few words with the five people, Ling Xu couldn't help but show a trace of depression on his face, it turned out that Ling Xu spoke Mandarin, and Tang Dazhu could barely understand it, but Ling Xu couldn't understand a word of what Tang Dazhu and the others said. Because the words they spoke were all dialects, and the speed of their speech was also extremely fast, Ling Xu listened carefully to a few words, and in the end, he didn't know what the other party was talking about.

In desperation, Ling Xu had to let Lao Tan act as a temporary translator, fortunately, Lao Tan usually has more contact with them, and can easily understand each other's words, and Lao Tan can also speak a few words of their dialect, so they can communicate.

Ling Xu: "How long have you been working with Li Baifu?" ”

Tang Dazhu and several people: "&□¥@#¥£." ”

Lao Tan: "They said that they had been working with Li Baifu for two years. ”

Ling Xu: "Was there anything wrong with Li Baifu before he resigned?" ”

Tang Dazhu and several people: "@#¥£&□¥." ”

Lao Tan: "They say there's nothing wrong with it. ”

Ling Xu asked, Tang Dazhu and the others answered, and Lao Tan next to him followed the translator, and after asking more than ten questions, seeing that the content of the other party's speech was like a book from heaven, Ling Xu couldn't help but be a little depressed.

Seeing that there was nothing to gain from asking again, Ling Xu simply gave up asking, and seeing that it was close to noon at this time, he planned to call it a day and go back, put up the notepad, Ling Xu thanked a few people: "Thank you for your cooperation, it's not early, you go to lunch, work is so tiring, eat more good food, do what you like, don't save too much." ”

After Ling Xu finished speaking, Tang Dazhu and the others didn't fully understand, and when they heard Ling Xu's words about eating, good, and liking, they thought that Ling Xu was asking Li Baifu what kind of food he liked to eat, so he replied: "Yi Nai Ying Qizi, Ya Ying Harm, and ...... of the camp reform."

As soon as he heard these dialects, Ling Xu's head was a little big, and he looked at Lao Tan with a puzzled expression, what did that mean Tang Dazhu What did they say?

Seeing the expression on Ling Xu's face, Lao Tan couldn't help but smile a little: "They said thank you for your concern, and asked if you are eating here?" ”

"Tell them I'm not eating here, and thank them for their kindness." After speaking, Ling Xu waved his hand, and then drove Corey's police car back, seeing that there was nothing to gain here, he planned to go to the mobile company for a trip, although the people from the criminal police team had already checked Li Baifu's communication records before, but Ling Xu still wanted to check it.

On the way back to the county bureau, glancing at the file on the co-pilot's seat, Ling Xu couldn't help but complain alone: "Alas...... No wonder the criminal police team has been investigating for four months and there has been no progress at all, there is no way to start the investigation.

There are no clues, so what can I do? I knew this earlier, when I persuaded the section chief to go to the criminal police team to ask for a case, it would have been good to let him pick one, alas...... It's too late to regret it. ”

When he was complaining, Ling Xu heard a "gurgling" sound from his stomach, and touched his stomach, only then did he remember that he hadn't eaten in the morning, and now it was noon, and the Five Organs Temple began to protest.

Looking at the time, it was already noon, and when he rushed back to the county bureau, it was estimated that there was no food in the canteen, thinking of this, he pondered eating a little outside, and then returning to the county bureau after he was full, so he drove while looking for a restaurant to see where there was a restaurant.

It's strange to say, usually when Ling Xu is not hungry, he can see three or four restaurants when he walks two steps out, but he is hungry today, and he has driven almost twenty miles, but he has not seen a single restaurant, seeing that he is about to enter the county seat, Ling Xu thought to himself, "Forget it, let's go back and make instant noodles." ”

Not long after Ling Xu's thought arose, he suddenly saw a row of houses at the intersection in front of him, and drove the car over to take a look, it turned out that this was an iron house built by nearby villagers at the intersection, which was specially used for business, because this intersection was the main intersection in and out of the county, and there were more vehicles passing by, so the business of those stalls was not bad.

Most of these stalls sell fruits, and the rest are some grocery buyers, looking along the stalls, Ling Xu's eyes lit up, it turned out that at the edge of the stall, there was a restaurant, and there was a sign erected at the door, which said authentic rice noodles across the bridge......

Parking the police car in a hidden place, changing the police uniform on his body, Ling Xu walked towards the restaurant in civilian clothes, entered the restaurant, and saw that there were four or five tables of people inside, everyone was eating rice noodles, and when he saw a guest, a woman with a foreign accent walked up, and asked Ling Xu to eat a big bowl and a small bowl?

To be honest, Ling Xu usually doesn't eat rice noodles much, because he is not good at spicy, but the spicier the rice noodles, the more fragrant they are, although there are not spicy ones, but they are not as enjoyable as spicy ones, and Ling Xu always has a feeling of not being hungry when he eats rice noodles, although he was full at that time, but after two or three hours, he felt hungry again.

Hearing the boss's question, Ling Xu tentatively asked if there were any other snacks? For example, dumplings, fried dough sticks, steamed buns, green onion cakes and the like, but the proprietress shook her head and told Ling Xu that there were only rice noodles in the store.

As soon as he heard this, Ling Xu didn't pick it, and directly asked the proprietress to bring two large bowls of rice noodles, and after a while, the proprietress came over with two large bowls of rice noodles, looking at the fragrant rice noodles, Ling Xu's index finger moved, and he picked up the chopsticks and enjoyed his lunch.

When Ling Xu ate the second bowl, the previous diners were already full, and when Ling Xu was eating, he glanced at them and saw that they were all wearing work clothes, and their clothes were embroidered with a certain construction company, it seemed that these people should be workers on a nearby construction site.

After paying the bill, the men said goodbye to the proprietress and then left the restaurant with their respective hard hats, two of whom were probably fellow villagers with the proprietress and when they left, they did not say goodbye in the local dialect, but spoke in the dialect: "Na Beiya." ”

The proprietress smiled, and then replied, "Hello." After saying that, the proprietress sent the other party out of the restaurant.

Ling Xu, who was gobbling up rice noodles, was stunned when he heard the word "Yaya" in the conversation between the two sides, he swallowed the rice noodles in his mouth, looked at the proprietress, and asked curiously: "The proprietress is from Cainan Province?" You just spoke Bai dialect, right? ”

The proprietress nodded with a smile, and replied in the not very familiar Ji Nan dialect: "Yes, I have been married to Ludong for more than ten years, and my accent still can't be changed. ”

After hearing this, Ling Xu snorted, then changed the topic, and said to the proprietress half-jokingly: "Boss, in fact, I can also speak Cainan, listen, how about Yingqizi, Beiyayingzi, and the camp reform festival?" Am I right? ”
