Chapter 19: The Messy Rooftop
"And then mumble?" Soybean's buttocks on the couch moved forward.
"Just about a year ago, I didn't feel right, and now my wife and I are older, so there's a little movement next door, and we'll be woken up in the middle of the night. I often hear the sound of his house closing back and forth in the middle of the night, probably because his husband is busy with work and only comes home in the middle of the night. But later, after the birth of his baby, the situation became even more serious, except for the sound of opening and closing the door in the middle of the night, there were the sounds of falling things and quarreling all day long. As their neighbors, we tried to persuade him, but when we knocked on his door, there was no movement inside. ”
"Is there anything out of the ordinary?"
"And... There is also that his baby can cry very much, the cry is really heard in our family, it's okay not to cry, a cry is really according to the whole night of crying, and then it is the sound of his family quarreling and throwing things. When the old lady said this, she drank the water thirstily.
"Then when the crime happened today, did you hear any movement in his house?" Soybean also drank water with the old lady.
"Today... Ao, early this morning, I was about to go to the vegetable market below the community to buy some food, as soon as I opened the door, I saw the mistress of his house wearing only a pajama and going upstairs, I called her, as if she didn't hear anything. Seeing that she ignored me, I was in a hurry to buy groceries, so I went downstairs directly. ”
"What time did you see her? Was she holding the baby at the time? ”
"It's almost seven o'clock, I didn't see her holding the child, I saw her go upstairs alone!" The old lady's hand holding her granddaughter was a little numb, so she got up and put her granddaughter on the bed in the next room so that her granddaughter could sleep well.
The old lady who closed the door and continued to return to her original position to sit down suddenly seemed to think of something: "Ao, when I came back from buying vegetables, I was at the door downstairs, and I happened to see Dong Bing next door driving out in a hurry, and then I went home, until I saw their mother and son dead downstairs at the incident." ”
After listening to the old lady's narration, Huang Dou knew in his heart that this case was definitely not as simple as he thought before. After that, Huang Dou even said thank you to the old lady and went straight out of the room.
Closing the door, Huang Dou looked at Dong Bing's house opposite with the door closed.
Woman: "Why don't we go up to the rooftop and have a look?" ”
Man: "Look at the bird, at the time of the crime, Dong Bing had alibi evidence, and when he saw his wife, he committed suicide." ”
Although Huang Dou agreed with the views of the two voices, his curiosity still drove Huang Dou to the top of the building, he wanted to see what the hostess wanted to do before she died.
The stairs to the top of the building were unusually dim even in the daytime, and Huang Dou fumbled with the light next to him, until he reached the end, and there was a closed iron door in front of him, and Huang Dou gently moved the latch, and the door opened easily.
Out of the door, in front of a piece of open rooftop, soybeans walk on the roof of the building around and look around, there are two tight cement cisterns on the side of the rooftop, the top has been covered with an iron cover, and the big trivial reservoir is tightly sealed.
Man: "There's no way the woman can open this thing, after all, the lock hasn't been damaged in the slightest."
Seeing that everything was normal, the soybean walked to the depths of the rooftop, the more he walked away from the rooftop, the wind was stronger, and from time to time the wind mixed with the dust on the cement roof flew wantonly, at this moment, the soybean saw a pair of women's slippers on the ground at the handrail of the roof, and scattered pieces of shredded paper.
Soybeans hurriedly walked forward to see what was going on.
