Chapter 2: The Last Fatal Phone Call
*
Shang Xiaoyu, who went back to the dormitory, was brainwashed by the appearance of Assistant Liu just now, and she couldn't think of any reason to use to remind the beautiful woman that she was in danger.
Just when Shang Xiaoyu was older, a phone call from an intermediary company rescued her. Because she is about to graduate, this means that she can no longer live in the school dormitory, and she should go out as soon as possible to find a house to settle in. However, she earns money by taking on some casual jobs on weekdays, so it is difficult to have a cheap house that meets her requirements.
Therefore, when the agency called her to tell her that there was a suitable house, she was really surprised, after all, she didn't have any hope. It must be difficult for the landlord to agree so easily, so when she asked the agent what the landlord had to ask for, the agent said that the landlord left four words: just live creatures.
The corners of Shang Xiaoyu's mouth twitched when he heard this, and he didn't know whether to be happy or sad.
The intermediary company sent the address, and Shang Xiaoyu took a taxi to find that this was a luxury and high-end community, and everyone who came in and out of here was either rich or expensive.
Rhyme of light. Building A452, 13th floor of Building 78.
Shang Xiaoyu practiced greeting in the elevator, but he was still very nervous when he knocked on the door. While she waited for the door to open, 10,000 possible scenes flashed through her mind, and she never expected it......
"It's you!"
"It's you."
The two of them looked at each other and spoke in unison.
Shang Xiaoyu looked at the bells and whistles in the room and all kinds of luxurious and corrupt furniture, and scolded the country in his heart for being too merciful, and being kind to these civil servants who didn't do practical things.
"You sleep in that room." Meng Xuan pointed to a door behind the sofa, and there was a big SpongeBob SquarePants sticker on the door.
Shang Xiaoyu is now a little worried about whether this Meng Xuan will be a psychopath, but the requirements for the police examination should be quite strict, and it won't be a cat or a dog.
"Hey, how did you become a police officer?" Shang Xiaoyu asked tentatively.
"Go through the back door." Meng Xuan looked up, not knowing what shame was.
Forget it, this person is a cheeky scoundrel at best, and his IQ should not be able to reach the level of a perverted high-level animal. Shang Xiaoyu thought secretly in his heart.
Suddenly, Shang Xiaoyu stared at Meng Xuan, and Meng Xuan interpreted the words "ill-intentioned" from her eyes. He stepped back with his hands on his chest, shouting something to keep his chastity or something.
"You're a policeman, you can keep the people safe, right?" Shang Xiaoyu asked with a wink of wide eyes.
Meng Xuan pushed her away, sat down to the side and asked in an official tone, "Who wants to rob you of your money?" ”
"No one."
"Then you're not safe."
"It's not. I know someone who might have an accident. Shang Xiaoyu thought about Assistant Liu's black smoke, which was obviously a sign of an accident.
Meng Xuan looked at her with a smile: "Yo, if everyone reports the case for this reason, then the people's police in our country will have to be like street lamps every twenty meters." Meng Xuan only thought that Shang Xiaoyu was joking, and yawned and entered a room with a sticker on the door.
Unexpectedly, Shang Xiaoyu couldn't help.
But she suddenly reacted, shouted at the room curiously, and asked, "Hey, why can't it be a robbery?" ”
"Who are you robbing?" A question floated out of the room.
"Me."
"Then that person is really dangerous, who is it, tell me quickly, I will quickly watch him personally, and protect him twenty-four hours a day." Meng Xuan rushed out and held on to the door frame and finished speaking in one breath.
Shang Xiaoyu gritted his teeth, clenched his fists, picked up the pillow beside him and smashed it at Meng Xuan, fortunately, Meng Xuan was agile enough to close the door in time, and the pillow smashed into the face of the innocent Patrick.
The next day, Shang Xiaoyu went back to school to check out, packed some luggage and prepared to officially move into Meng Xuan's apartment. However, she has not yet got the key to the apartment, so she can only wait for Meng Xuan to go back after work in the evening.
But it just happened that she got a job as a kindergarten painting teacher because she received feedback from the previous interview in the morning. It's a double happiness, and it's the first day of work today, so she's not too bored.
"It's Mr. Shang." The director is a woman in her fifties, but she still has charm and looks very temperamental.
"Okay, that's it." A familiar voice sounded in my ears. Shang Xiaoyu followed the sound and looked back, but only saw the rear of a black sedan that was driving away.
"Teacher Shang, this is the primary one class." The principal pointed to the classroom at the door, and Shang Xiaoyu retracted his thoughts in time.
*
Obviously, I made an appointment to meet at the door of the apartment at five o'clock, but Meng Xuan's guy was thirty minutes late and didn't come back. Shang Xiaoyu was sitting at the door and had been stared at by countless people who came and went, listening to the prompt tone that could not be connected on the phone again, she hung up the phone angrily.
She looked at the name in second place in the call log, thought of the voice she heard in the kindergarten during the day, and hesitated to dial the phone.
"Hello, who?" It seems that the working relationship has ended, and Assistant Liu is used to deleting the phone number.
However, when he heard this voice again, Shang Xiaoyu could be sure that the person who drove away in the kindergarten was Assistant Liu. It turns out that she is young and beautiful, and she already has children, thinking that she is half a leftover girl.
Shouldn't she be more reminded of this?
"That, Assistant Liu, hello, I'm Shang Xiaoyu. That, is Mr. Su still satisfied? Shang Xiaoyu didn't know how to speak for a while, so he casually talked about the topic.
Assistant Liu heard that it was her and said, "I have something to do now, and Mr. Su is very satisfied, so let's do it, Miss Shang." ”
Shang Xiaoyu hung up the phone before he could say anything more, but fortunately, Assistant Liu had nothing to do so far.
She began to look forward to it, maybe not every time. After all, she hasn't seen everyone who has a death notice actually die, and maybe there are people she has seen but are still alive and well.
Shang Xiaoyu sat on the suitcase, if it weren't for the fact that she couldn't suppress the anger in her heart now, she would have rushed to Meng Xuan and dismantled him a lot. Especially after she sat in the doorway for three hours.
"I'm sorry, I'm a bit busy today." Meng Xuan's voice was a little hoarse, and it could be seen that the police station was indeed very busy today.
Seeing him like this, Shang Xiaoyu didn't want to blame anything, she took out a bucket of instant noodles from her suitcase and prepared to fill her hunger, comforting herself that she had been hungry after waiting for so long. Seeing this, Meng Xuan unceremoniously took a bucket from the box, and then went to the room to get a few documents and prepared to go out.
"The key is ready, I've been busy lately, you can do it yourself." Meng Xuan put a newly equipped key on the cupboard at the door, and then heard a cheap tone coming, saying, "Don't miss me too much, if you're afraid, go to my room and pick a big photo of me to look at, and be quiet." ”
Shang Xiaoyu didn't bother to pay attention to it, and after a perfunctory response, he concentrated on cooking noodles.
As soon as he closed the door, Meng Xuan's mobile phone rang, and when he saw that the caller ID was from the police station, his expression immediately became serious: "What's the matter?" ”
"A mobile phone was found from the scene. It was supposed to be the deceased. ”
"I'll be there shortly."
*
The police station is now busy, because three hours ago it received a report from the public that a female corpse had been found in an abandoned factory. Meng Xuan immediately took someone to the police, and the scene of the crime was indeed shocking.
The deceased was a fashionable girl wearing the latest style of a famous brand, who looked to be around 30 years old, and the preliminary judgment was that she fell from the upper floor and died on the spot. Because it was face-to-face, it was unrecognizable and the deceased could not be identified. Suicide should be ruled out after initial investigation.
As soon as Meng Xuan got out of the car, he saw a man with shiny hair and a big belly at the entrance of the police station anxiously pacing back and forth.
That was Meng Xuan's partner, Lao Hu.
As soon as Lao Hu saw him, his eyes lit up and he said: "What was found from the ruins at the scene should have been held in the hands of the deceased when he fell from the building, and he was thrown into the ruins in the distance after falling." ”
"I'll send it for appraisal right away." Meng Xuan strode into the office.
"There's nothing in the phone, just a call log." Lao Hu handed over a piece of paper with a string of numbers on it.
A phone number, to be exact.
Meng Xuan understood what he meant, he took the number, sat down with Lao Hu at the innermost table in the hall, and then picked up the phone on the table and dialed the number. This landline does not belong to the police department, so they will generally use this landline to call special people in special circumstances.
"Toot-"
"Toot-"
"Toot-"
After three sounds, Meng Xuan and Lao Hu looked at each other, and they both saw apprehension and expectation in each other's eyes. Before the fourth sound could ring, the phone was connected, and that voice made Meng Xuan feel like a thunderbolt from the sky.
"Hey, I'm Shang Xiaoyu, who are you?" Before Shang Xiaoyu could swallow the instant noodles in her mouth, she heard her mobile phone ring as soon as she fished out the noodles in the pot, so she had to hurriedly turn off the heat and grab a bite of noodles while rushing over to answer the phone.
Meng Xuan frowned for a long time, and could hear that she should be eating. Meng Xuan remembered that Shang Xiaoyu was still busy in the kitchen before he went out, so he pretended to be relaxed and asked, "Have you finished eating the noodles?" ”
"Blindfolding...... Meng Xuan? Shang Xiaoyu was a little surprised, "Not yet, I was just about to eat." ”
"Then don't eat it yet, let's come to the Ling'an City Police Station first."
Shang Xiaoyu was confused and said, "What do you mean?" ”
Meng Xuan sighed and scolded, "Are you stupid, now a policeman is calling you at the police station and calling you over." As soon as he finished speaking, Meng Xuan suddenly felt that it was himself who was stupid, and he was not using the internal phone of the police station.
Shang Xiaoyu seemed to vaguely understand something, and asked carefully, "Yes...... Did something happen? ”
Lao Hu took the phone and said in a pertinent tone: "Hello, this is the Ling'an City Police Department, and now there is a murder case related to you and I want you to come here, so we will ask a few words." ”
Originally, I didn't want to expose them by using this phone, but as soon as Meng Xuan came up, he reported to his home, and the two of them should still know each other in an old way, so naturally there was no need to continue to hide it.
Shang Xiaoyu's mind went blank after listening. She didn't know why she had anything to do with the murder, although she had a special constitution and could always see the death notices of various people, but she was never approached by the police because of this.
In a panic, she took her wallet and Meng Xuan's newly assigned keys to her, and took a taxi to the police station non-stop. When she got out of the car to pay, she was stunned when she saw the check lying in her wallet, and a bad instinct came to her.
As soon as he arrived at the police station, Shang Xiaoyu saw that Meng Xuan was already waiting for her at the door, and as soon as he saw her, he showed an expression of hatred and hatred, and he didn't know why, Shang Xiaoyu almost had to be delusional if his father was here.
Shang Xiaoyu entered the police station, and Meng Xuan followed. There are a lot of people gathered in the police station, and they should have heard that there is a key person who wants to solve the case as soon as possible. Lao Hu knew that this was the person who had just answered the phone, so he came up and took a few photos to Shang Xiaoyu and asked her if she knew him.
The photo shows a woman leaning over the ground, her entire head lying in a pool of blood. There is no face photo, and it can only be judged by clothing and body shape.
This dresser Xiao Yu had never seen it, but she had a strong hunch that this was Assistant Liu.
Seeing that she didn't react, Lao Hu put a mobile phone in a plastic bag on the table and said, "This shows that at 5:39, you were on the phone with the deceased." ”
Everything was right, and it came true after all.
"It's Assistant Liu." Shang Xiaoyu said.
As soon as they heard that Shang Xiaoyu recognized the deceased, the people in the police station were a little excited.
One of the policemen stood up, took out handcuffs and put them on Shang Xiaoyu's wrist, and said, "I'm sorry Miss Shang, now we have listed you as the first suspect, and I hope you can cooperate with our investigation." ”
