Chapter 5: The Lonely Ghost Sings (Section 7)

"At that time, I, Lao Zhou, one of his colleagues, and two bailiffs, a total of five people, with ten pairs of eyes, clearly watched the cage and other animal skins locked in the detention room. One bailiff also put a spoon full of water in the cage, fearing that it would be difficult to clean the ground, so he also put a paper plate in the cage and pulled a cloth to cover the cage. Speaking of this, Hu Yanyang looked around and saw that everyone was listening to him attentively, so he took a sip of Coke and continued.

"When we locked the door of the detention cell, we checked the door and lock, and there were no problems, and there were two locks in total, and the two keys were each carried by two bailiffs, and there were a total of five cameras in the detention room. About an hour later, I went to the bathroom, and when I passed by the detention cell, I went out of my way to look at it, and I heard it crying through the bar, and the crying was very, very muffled, like the sobbing sound of a baby being born. It was about one o'clock in the morning, and in the dead of night, I listened to its whimpering, and I still felt a little cold down my spine. At half past two, when I was done with everything, I went to the bathroom to wash my face and go back to the office when I passed by the detention cell, I took another look, and I was startled to see that the cage was still there, and the cloth that had blocked the light on the cage had been lifted, and the cage was empty. How did it get out? I quickly called the two bailiffs on night duty to open the door, because our detention room is used for temporary detention of suspects, which is different from the detention center of the Public Security Bureau. There are two locks and two gates, one of which is a glass door and the other is an iron fence outside the glass door. People passing by outside can see the suspects in custody inside. Hu Yanyang shook his head and took another sip of Coke.

"I checked it as soon as I went in, and except for the fox who was gone, there was nothing missing about fur or something. There was no sign that the door or lock had been picked, and we immediately rummaged through the entire building, but we couldn't find the fox fur, so we had to report to the leader. The leader immediately rushed to the scene when he heard this, turned on the CCTV monitoring system of the entire court, and after watching it, everyone was startled, at two o'clock, the fox passed directly through the first glass door, and then went directly out of the iron fence. Once out, it basically glides along the handrail of the railing, and the movement is very fast and light, and in the blink of an eye, it reaches the next level. This floor is the lobby of the court, and the picture clearly shows that after the fox came to the lobby, he looked for something and didn't know what he was looking for..... and then wandered in the stairwell on the first floor, and then disappeared......" Hu Yanyang looked at Fang Berlin after speaking.

"What do you think I'm doing? I didn't let the fox go. Fang Berlin asked Hu Yanyang strangely.

"I know senior, I mean, have you ever seen such a strange thing?" Hu Yanyang stood up.

"What is the name of our department?' 'Special Case Handling Committee', will you come to our department for cases that are not weird? Or tell me about your fox, just now you said that the fox disappeared in the stairwell on the first floor, what kind of disappearance law? disappeared out of thin air? Or ....... A puff of smoke is gone?" Fang Bolin motioned for him to sit down.

"We didn't see a puff of smoke, we just saw a flash of snow on the CCTV footage, and the fox was gone in just a second. Hu Yanyang spread his hands.

"When did this happen?" Fang Bolin pursed his lips and pondered for a moment.

"The day before yesterday," Hu Yanyang replied affirmatively.

"The two days have been the detention cell where the fox is held, has anyone else been locked up?" Fang Bolin suddenly thought of something.

"I don't know, I heard that there were several criminal cases tried yesterday, and the detention room is not enough...... Maybe ......" Hu Yanyang became nervous.

"Has the handrail of the lobby where the fox crawled been cleaned up?" Fang Bolin raised his voice.

"Yes, the cleaning company routinely cleans every day, what's wrong?" Hu Yanyang seemed to realize something.

"It's not good, go to the Provincial High Court immediately, Zong Wei, you follow my WeChat message to buy these things and send them to the High Court, money....You tell the shopkeeper Master Liang Junqi, I will make it up to him later." Qiu Yan went with me to the Provincial High Court. Junior brother, don't you understand the protection of the scene, you have destroyed the scene now, hurry up!" Fang Bolin beckoned again and again.

Everyone rushed downstairs and ran quickly to the parking lot, and a group of five people ran wildly all the way, attracting the attention of everyone in the public security department, not knowing what major case had happened.

Hu Yanyang started the car and drove onto the road, "Senior, do you want to call the criminal investigators from the city bureau as well?"

"What do you want them to do?" Fang Bolin glanced at him.

"Yesterday they finished surveying the scene, you can communicate with each other......" Hu Yanyang said as he touched his phone.

"What's the matter, the criminal investigator has also been to the investigation site?" Fang Berlin glared at Hu Yanyang like a bull's-eye.

"yes, we called the police, and they were on the scene very quickly, but they didn't seem to find anything. Hu Yanyang peeked at Fang Bolin.

"You little white face, alas......no wonder, forget it, hurry up!" Fang Bolin shook his head slightly.

"What's the matter, senior?" Hu Yanyang's forehead began to sweat.

"You don't know how to protect the scene and wait for us to come? It's no wonder that you read law, not criminal investigation. Fang Bolin was laughing in his heart, and he teased him to his heart's content, in order to report the evil anger of losing the lawsuit in court a few months ago.

"This ..... I only learned about the establishment of your department yesterday afternoon, didn't I have to ask my colleagues for help yesterday morning? What was wrong with me?" Hu Yanyang felt aggrieved.

"I'm kidding you, don't care, we are all students of Professor Wei, brothers and sisters, in public and private, I will do my best. Fang Bolin put away his smile.

Hu Yanyang sighed, "Senior, you, a rogue lawyer in the judicial field..... are too difficult to deal with, last time in the court, I was able to understand it, and I was almost scolded by you for not being able to clear the direction, you really don't play cards according to common sense." ”

"It's over, drive carefully, drive as fast as you can, it's almost five o'clock, and I should get off work. Fang Bolin bowed his hand to him.

"Got it, sit tight. Hu Yanyang excitedly made a fist clenching motion.

The car drove quickly to the Provincial High Court, and at this time Zong Wei's call arrived, and he told Fang Berlin that he couldn't buy one thing he specified, and Fang Berlin was anxious when he heard it, "You let Master Liang listen to the phone." ”

"Master Liang, how can this be done without a 'mountain mouse'? It's a fox that I'm going to catch this time, you have to think of a way. Fang Berlin kept tapping his thigh with his index, middle and ring fingers.

On the other end of the phone was Liang Junqi, "Berlin, I told you last time, and now there are fewer and fewer people catching this, and you have to be in a hurry." ”

"I just got the assignment...... Are there any other alternatives?" Fang Bolin was really anxious.

"You let me think of a way, I'll call you later, okay?" Liang Junqi said helplessly.

"Okay," Fang Berlin hung up.

"Senior, what difficulties have you encountered?" Hu Yanyang drove the car into the compound of the Provincial High Court and stopped at the door steadily.

Everyone got out of the car, Fang Bolin turned to Hu Yanyang and said, "Senior brother, I can't get the things I want, I'm thinking of a way." You take me to the detention cell to investigate the scene first, and then you quickly find someone to give me a copy of the CCTV that night, and I will go through it with you again later. ”

"It's been done in the morning, let's go to my office and watch it together, now let's go to the detention cell first." Hu Yanyang led everyone to the second floor.

"See, there is a detention room in the inner row, and the detention room where the fox is locked is the penultimate one, so I'll ask the bailiff to open the door first." Hu Yanyang said while calling.

Soon two bailiffs came, and Hu Yanyang introduced them one by one, "This is Ning Jiangsheng, deputy captain of the bailiff brigade, and that is bailiff Quan Zhihao." Both were the ones who took the keys that night. ”

Fang Berlin saw that the two of them frowned and their faces were worried. He smiled and patted the two of them on the shoulder and comforted them, "I don't guarantee that I will be able to catch the fox, but this is my first case, I want to play my signboard, I will do my best." Rest assured, you two!"

When the two of them heard this, their faces were happy, and they nodded excitedly at Fang Berlin.

The two took the group to the door of the detention room, only to see a large group of people in the court holding mobile phones to film their group.

"Our leader is also here......" Hu Yanyang suddenly said in a suppressed voice.

I saw a tall man with strong limbs in the middle of the team, and when he saw Fang Bolin coming, he hurriedly greeted him and stretched out his hand, "Yao Yongkui of the Provincial High Court, you are Mr. Fang, right?" ”

As soon as Fang Bolin's hand stretched out, he grabbed it and shook it hard, Fang Bolin's center of gravity suddenly became unstable, and he couldn't help but rush forward half a step.

Yao Yongkui smiled apologetically and let go of Fang Berlin, "I'm sorry, are you okay?"

"It's okay, I usually don't exercise much, by the way, you Dean Yao was a soldier, right?" Fang Bolin looked at the person in front of him again, he was in his fifties, his shoulders were broad and round, his chest was high, and he was as strong as an iron tower.

"Yes, I participated in the Vietnam War, and I was still the leader of the reconnaissance squad under Wei Bu....... I was his soldier. Yao Yongkui laughed heartily.

'Oh' Fang Bolin suddenly understood, why Wei Xuchen arranged for him to take over the court's case in the first place, it must have been Yao Yongkui who asked Wei Xuchen for help.

"Let's go to the detention cell first, I'll see the CCTV on the night of the incident with my junior brother later, please arrange it. Fang Bolin made a gesture of please.

"Hehe, who is your junior?" Yao Yongkui stopped.

"It'..... me dean. Hu Yanyang came in with his head down.

"Oh..... you're still brothers. Yao Yongkui nodded.

"Yes, dean" Hu Yanyang has no confidence in speaking, and it is estimated that he has been criticized a lot in the past two days.

"Come, investigate the scene. Dean Yao, is there anyone else in the detention room?" Fang Bolin looked around.

"Knowing you're coming, all the suspects have moved somewhere else. Dean Yao instructed the bailiffs to open the iron fence.
