Chapter 58: The Search
[Thank you oooooops, Meimu Panxi YXQ and Galocher drip monthly pass, Mo Da! ] 】
Since Wang Ge said so, Dai Xu didn't ask any further, after all, for ordinary people, if a dead body or a human stump is found in the lake, this is definitely a very terrifying and exciting thing, whether it is his own personal experience or not, it is enough to be used as a talking point, and the spread is boiling, Wang Ge, as one of the personnel who specializes in maintaining the cleanliness of the lake, even if he himself did not salvage it with his own hands, if someone really saw or fished it, he could not be unaware of it at all. was still so dazed when Dai Xu asked implicitly.
"Then why is the water depth of this lake different in different areas? Is there any special statement or design, or is it that the lake was originally created along the topography? He nodded to Wang Ge and asked again.
Speaking of the work area he was familiar with, Wang Ge was quite enthusiastic, stretched out his hand and gestured, and began to introduce them: "Look over there, the deepest place over there is the swimming area and the cruise area, and there is no particularly obvious division in the middle, anyway, the water on the cruise ship side is a little deeper, and the swimming area is a little shallower, so that there is mud or aquatic grass under the water, and it is not so easy to hook the legs of swimmers, so it is safer." There is nothing here now, in spring and summer, the place where the side is relatively shallow, the mud below is thick, all are lotus, a large piece of lotus leaves, useful do not let come here, one is afraid of scraping people, the other is too deep in the underground mud, in case a person falls in, it is very dangerous. In autumn, we clean up everything from the lotus leaves that are no longer good. The shallowest place over there doesn't have much effect, just do whatever you like. The water is too shallow, it's all mud, and there are a lot of reeds and other things, and people can't go down, so they don't care. ”
Dai Xu nodded and thanked Wang Ge, who squeaked back again. Continuing to be busy with his business, although it can be seen that he is still very curious about the fact that the police came to inquire about these things. However, he was very knowledgeable and didn't ask anything, which also saved Dai Xu and Fang Yuan a lot of tongue.
"What are you going to do? The lake is quite large. Fang Yuan could roughly guess Dai Xu's plans and thoughts, but when it came to the specific question of how to operate, she couldn't grasp Dai Xu's idea.
"yes. The lake was a bit bigger than I thought. Dai Xu rubbed his chin, only rubbed it twice, and then put his hand down again, he has maintained the shape of the transformation for the past two days, his beard is cleanly shaved, and his chin is naturally smooth, and he is still a little uncomfortable with his hand. Let's go over to the cruise ship and have a look. Inquire about people's business hours. ”
Fang Yuan nodded, and followed Dai Xu towards the deepest cruise ship area pointed out by Fang Cai Wang Ge, the sun above his head was empty, and the sun made people feel a little warmer, and the water in the artificial lake next to him was also green, illuminated by the sun, it looked a little more beautiful, the closer to the cruise area, the surrounding forests also changed the varieties of trees, the leaves in the forest were green and red, echoing each other, it was very beautiful, but unfortunately, Fang Yuan and Dai Xu did not have the leisure to stroll and appreciate, The two of them walked in a hurry, looking a little hurried, and they had some faint guesses about the many things that the schoolbag might involve.
In order to get to the cruise area, the two of them almost circled most of the lake, although Dai Xu did not speed up in an all-round way according to his own stride in order to accommodate Fang Yuan, but walked with some reservations, Fang Yuan was still a little tired and a little rough, there was no way, the height difference between the two people was there, if Fang Yuan's two legs could catch up with Dai Xu's two long legs, it would really be a miracle in human history.
Dai Xu also noticed this, so when he passed a small cold drink stall, he stopped, bought two bottles of mineral water, and chatted with the stall owner who sold cold drinks by the way, and asked the other party about the opening and closing time of the stall every day, the stall owner of the cold drink stall said that it will be earlier in the summer, and it will start to set up the stall at more than seven o'clock in the morning, and it will be more than nine o'clock in the evening to close the stall, like this late autumn season, he usually comes at eight or nine o'clock in the morning, and closes the stall at four or five o'clock in the afternoon, and waits until more than a month later, it snows, Then it's just cat winter, don't come out.
Dai Xu paid the money, twisted one of the bottles of water and handed it to Fang Yuan, Fang Yuan walked all over his body, his throat and eyes were already dry, he took it and drank a small half bottle in one go, Dai Xu said to her with a smile on the side: "Drink slowly, the more thirsty you are, the more you can't drink so quickly, so fiercely, it will hurt your stomach." ”
Fang Yuan smiled a little embarrassedly: "Oh, then I'll pay attention in the future." ”
Dai Xu took the bottle of water in her hand, helped her hold it, and by the way, used her fingers to help Fang Yuan wipe off the water stains hanging from the corners of her mouth, Fang Yuan suddenly felt a little embarrassed, peeked at Dai Xu, but saw that Dai Xu did not show any abnormality, it was natural, as if Fang Cai's action was very common, so she didn't say anything, anyway, except for being suddenly a little cramped and embarrassed, she didn't feel anything wrong, the two of them have been together for so long, she was by Dai Xu's side, It seemed that he had always been like a child, being quietly cared for, cared for, pointed, and even protected by him, Fang Yuan himself didn't seem to realize this, and it wasn't until recently, after listening to Dai Xu's self-confession, that this feeling became more and more obvious.
The two of them came to the pleasure boat area, where there were two small docks, which seemed to be contracted by two different contractors, one was pedal boats in the shape of various animals, and the other was a small boat of ordinary paddle boarding. As soon as they saw Dai Xu and Fang Yuan, a pair of young men and women coming over, both of them greeted each other very warmly, firstly, it was estimated that the two of them looked like a couple, and secondly, it was already the off-season, and after a while, the lake began to freeze, and they needed to close their businesses and wait for the next spring to warm up, so this time was the last stage of the year to attract business, and everyone wanted to make a little more money before closing.
"Two rowers, right? It's fun, let's paddle for a while! I'll give you an hour's worth for two hours! "On the other side of the rowing, a middle-aged woman is wrapped in a padded coat. Greet them with sleeved hands.
On the other side, a young girl in her twenties also came over on the side of the pedal boat, and greeted them very warmly: "Two." Do you want to play pedal boats? How nice the weather is today, Mr. take his girlfriend to pedal the boat for a while, it's very romantic! Aren't they all played like that in Korean dramas, don't you experience it? ”
The middle-aged woman on the small dock of rowing seemed to be very dissatisfied with this kind of door-to-door business robbery, her brows furrowed, and she wanted to say something more, but Dai Xu didn't intend to let them misunderstand them like this. There was no need to delay the time, so he decisively took out his documents and walked to the front with Fang Yuan. And motioned to the girl who solicited business for the pedal boat to come too, and it just so happened that there were only two pleasure boat rental businesses here, and the two got together, so they could save the same question and ask it twice. Time-saving and efficient. It's so convenient.
For Dai Xu, this is a good thing, but for two people who solicit business, the potential customer suddenly becomes a police officer who comes to understand the situation, although neither of them says anything directly, but this psychological gap is still clearly reflected in their faces.
"What are your morning and evening business hours like lately?" Dai Xu asked.
The middle-aged woman glanced at the young girl. "I recently came at eight in the morning and left at seven in the evening. ”
The young girl nodded. Pointing to the middle-aged woman next to him: "I'm just like her." ”
"How many people have come to the park to rent boats lately?" Dai Xu asked again.
"It's okay, some time ago, the days of the holiday were pretty good, the local children came out, fell in love, and came to play from other places, there were a lot of people, after the holiday, it was the off-season, and on my side, there were about two or three groups a day, which was not comparable to the summer." The young girl replied that she seemed to be a cheerful person, and that she answered more frankly, and did not hide it.
The middle-aged woman didn't seem to want to discuss the benefits in front of her competitors at first, but this kind of thing, the two families are next to each other, and it is estimated that others can see it, so she replied with a little interest: "I'm about the same, it's not as good as her, in the past few days, there can be one or two a day, it's not bad." ”
"Will you count the number of people who come to rent a boat from you?" Fang Yuan opened his mouth to ask, seeing that the two of them seemed to be a little dazed after listening to her question, he explained one more sentence, "I mean, if a few people get on the boat, a few people must get off the boat?" Will you confirm the number of people? ”
"Then we won't go out of our way to count, but ......" the middle-aged woman felt that Fang Yuan had asked a particularly silly question, and wanted to laugh, but she could only endure it, "This lake, only our small dock can park the boats firmly on the side, all the boats come back, and they can only get people here, and the people who come to row can still turn into ducks and swim away halfway?" There must be as many people who go as there are, and as many of them come back. ”
The young girl also nodded: "I can't remember who is who when there are many people in the summer, but it should not be the kind of thing when there are not many people in the past, and there are still one or two less when I come back." ”
"Then you stay here until seven o'clock in the evening every day, can you see anything around here?" Dai Xu looked around and found that the location of the two small piers was still very open, and the middle-aged woman had a table on the small pier, and there was a telescope and a loudspeaker on the table.
"Yes, we still have to look at it, the people in the park explained, saying that we should also stare at the lake when we are fine, in case there is that kind of swimmer, we have to challenge something to cross the lake, and the result is swimming to our cruise area, or the rower crosses the line, and runs to the side where people are swimming, we have to shout with a loudspeaker, let the boat turn back, or let the swimmer swim back quickly, if anyone does not listen to the persuasion, we can't control it, just find someone from the park management office, oh, there is a sign over there, Those who cross the line and keep blocking will be fined. The young girl replied, "The main thing is that the swimmers are afraid of the danger of the swimmer and the boat if they collide with each other." ”
"Has anything like that happened lately?" Fang Yuan asked.
The middle-aged woman shook her head: "That's not true, as soon as it is said that there is a fine, these people are quite conscious." ”
After getting this information, Dai Xu didn't ask the two pleasure boat rental people about anything more, thanked him, and walked towards the swimming area with Fang Yuan, and didn't go far to see a sign standing on the edge of the lake, which said that the cruise area is divided by a certain landmark object on the shore, and the boat should not row to the swimming area, block those who are invalid, bear all the consequences that may arise from this, and accept the fine from the park.
The swimming area looks more depressed than the cruise area, because it is not a bathing place, but visitors are allowed to enter the water, so the park does not provide any amenities for those who come to swim here, there is no fixed changing room, and there is no special management personnel, it is estimated that it is either because it is now in the off-season, or there are not many people who come here to swim on weekdays, and there is not even a small vendor who rents lifebuoys and other things, and there are many weeping willows on the shore of the lake, and the shadows of trees are cast on the lakeThere were two or three stone-paved steps leading into the water, and the rest of the shore was bare.
Dai Xu turned around here, raised his head, stood on the shore and determined the location where Wang Ge salvaged the schoolbag, and found that the two were far away from each other, the distance was very far, he thought for a while, and suddenly asked Fang Yuan: "Fang Yuan, what do you think?" ”
"I think it's going to be more difficult to search the whole lake, so I'll choose to start here." Fang Yuan knew what Dai Xu wanted to ask himself, so he directly said his opinion, "If something really happened, and no one found the floating corpse for so many days, then it must be because of some reason that it sank to the bottom and couldn't float, this side is far away from the place where the schoolbag was found, which is also very reasonable, because if the schoolbag is discovered, and someone suspects that someone has fallen into the water, they will definitely lock the scope around the schoolbag first, and will not consider the other side that is the farthest away from each other." There is also the depth of the water here, although the cruise area is the deepest, the time to close the stall, according to the present, the sky is also dark, there are objective conditions, but it is impossible to gang up to do bad things, I paid attention to the boat over there, the largest can sit down six people, if six people rent a boat, come back to become five, the boss may not be able to notice, but if two people go, one person back, this is a bit obvious. ”
After listening to her words, Dai Xu nodded, and took out his mobile phone: "I'll contact the distance and prepare to search in the water." (To be continued......)
