Chapter 5: Trouble for a Family
As soon as she heard that there was a case, Yan Xue dared to delay, and hurriedly got up and prepared to leave.
Fortunately, after so many years, she has long been accustomed to such a rhythm of life, so she moved quickly, quickly changed her clothes, walked downstairs quickly, and arrived at the gate not long after Kang Ge arrived.
Yan Xue got into the car, and Kang Ge pointed to the glove box as usual: "It's too late to make coffee, so I brought you a carton of milk." β
After finishing speaking, after Yan Xue fastened his seat belt, he drove towards the location of the crime at full speed.
Originally, Yan Xue was still thinking when she set off, although the two of them talked more openly the day before, and the communication could be said to be extremely smooth, but after meeting today, will it be a little different from the past, and it will feel a little awkward, but it seems that such concerns are a little redundant, Kang Ge's attitude is quite natural and frank, and even let her relax.
When the car was halfway open, the sky lit up, Yan Xue looked at the street scene outside the window, and suddenly realized the destination they were going: "Let's go to the Louwang community in the city center?" β
"That's right, the scene of the crime this time is over there." Kang Ge nodded, "I heard that the scene is quite big, but I don't know which 'big' method it is, I don't know it yet, just go there and see it." β
Okay! Yesterday was the community of Kangge's family, and today it is this famous large-scale high-end community located in the downtown area, Yan Xue feels that she seems to be in love with a big house this weekend.
The community they are going to can be said to be the most prestigious real estate in W City, when other developers in W City are buying land in the suburbs to develop villas, there is a developer who has found a new way to focus on the relatively prosperous urban area, the traffic is also developed, the use of which is not a large area, the development of a pure large high-end residential area.
There are only a few buildings planned in the community, leaving a large area of green area and very comprehensive supporting facilities to create a quiet living effect. It is said that the smallest units in it are more than 200 square meters, and Yan Xue is not very clear about how big the largest is, after all, this kind of house has nothing to do with her.
In this real estate development, many people think that this must be a unsalable real estate, a failed decision, did not expect to be very hot after the opening, attracting a large number of buyers with relatively strong economic strength, but not willing to go to the suburbs to live in villas, they would rather use the same as villas, or even a little more to buy the high-rise here, but also enjoy more convenient transportation and more lively and prosperous surroundings, saving a lot of travel time.
So during that time, people in W City knew that there were many more rich people gathered in this community than villas in the suburbs, after all, under the concept of housing choice like that back then, the occupancy rate of the villa area was really low, but there were almost no unsold empty houses in this community.
With the expansion of the urban area, as well as the strengthening of infrastructure, the rich people in W City gradually began to yearn for the tranquility and fresh air in the suburbs, and the former building king also vacated a lot of idle properties, just because the unit area is too large, it is not so easy to sell, and the owners here are not in a hurry to sell the house for cash, so although the occupancy rate has been declining, the identity of the owner has not changed much.
When Kangge's car stopped at an intersection because of the red light, Yan Xue saw the destination community in front of her from a distance through the car window, and couldn't help but wonder a little.
Not to mention that this case was described by Kang Ge as a "big scene".
With such speculation, they came to the destination, because they knew that there was a murder inside, so the community security did not block too much after seeing Kangge's documents, and released their car very quickly, but although the entrance to the gate was smooth, it took a lot of effort to drive the car downstairs to the crime scene - the diversion of people and vehicles in the community was too thorough, resulting in no roadway that could directly reach the downstairs of the crime scene.
Kango parked the car on the side of the road some distance from the building, and the two men got out of the car and walked towards the unit door.
Yan Xue thought as she walked, if something is done to the extreme in one aspect, it will reveal defects in another aspect, for example, the diversion of people and vehicles here is a good thing for the living environment and pedestrians and vehicles, but this diversion to this kind of car can't get close to the downstairs, and can only park far away, but it's really too much!
It's okay for them now, even if they park at the gate and walk in, but what if there is a fire hazard, or someone suddenly has some emergency, continue the ambulance? So what to do?
The ambulance may be able to drive the car in like them, but park a little farther, the fire truck will be completely useless, the road in this community, the road width is not enough for the fire truck to pass, the underground parking lot is limited to high, once the fire risk occurs, it is really to stare dryly, there is no way at all.
Because they are all large houses, they are all in the layout of one ladder and one household, and the two of them met Qi Tianhua downstairs and learned that the scene of the crime was located on the top floor of this building, which was a mansion of nearly 300 square meters.
"You said before that the scene is relatively large, do you mean the area?" When taking the elevator upstairs, Yan Xue asked Qi Tianhua.
Qi Tianhua smiled bitterly and shook his head: "The area is indeed not small, but the main thing is that the scene is large, anyway, you will see it in a while, it will not be too easy to collect evidence on the spot, it is estimated that it will be busy for a while." β
The elevator speed is very fast, and it will not take long to reach the top floor, because there is a ladder and a household, when you get to the top floor, the space at the gate is also very spacious, and the entrance door is two folios, which is much more magnificent than the general commercial house.
At this time, one of the two doors was hidden, and the other was wide open, and standing in the doorway, you could see the inside at a glance.
Kang Ge and Yan Xue only glanced at the door, and immediately understood what Qi Tianhua meant by the so-called "big scene".
The chaos in the room was evident in the hallway and the part of the living room behind itβthe floor was littered with rubbish and empty wine bottles, cans, and even the smell of the room mixed with the smell of unpleasant vomit.
"What happened here before!" Yan Xue was very surprised, "How can you look at it from the door, such a big house, it seems that there is no room for people to step on and walk in without messing with anything!" β
"You're really right." Qi Tianhua pointed inside, "The informant said that the inside of the house is even more chaotic than the outside, and what we can see at the door now is already very clean and tidy compared to the inside!" That's why we have to wait here, I just confirmed, the forensic doctors will be there soon, and the forensic colleagues will inspect the scene first, and then we will go in. β
"Who's the informant?" Kango asked him.
"The cleaning of this building, an uncle in his early sixties, routinely went to each floor in the morning to collect garbage and clean up, found that the door of this household was open, there was a big gap, the cleaner looked inside, found that it was messed up like this, thought it was a thief, knocked on the door for a long time and no one answered the door, thought it was an empty house that no one lived in for a long time was stolen, so he quickly called the police, and the people from the police station came to take a look and found that a person died in the bedroom inside."
"Have you been to the property's duty room?" After hearing about the informant, Kango knew that there was no need to communicate with him, so he asked about another thing that was most necessary to do.
Qi Tianhua shook his head: "Not yet, I live closest to here, and I was the first to arrive, so I stayed to protect the scene first." β
"Then you wait here for the others, and we'll go to the property duty room to adjust the surveillance." Kang Ge calculated, "Looking at the cleanliness of the stairwell and elevator here, the cleaners should come to clean it at least once a day, maybe more often, so he found out about the situation here this morning, so the specific time of the crime should not be earlier than yesterday morning."
There are a lot of empty wine bottles and cans in the house, nine times out of ten, there was a party here before, and the time interval we need to pay attention to the most can be shortened to yesterday afternoon to early this morning, and it will not waste too much time. β
"You come back after saving the surveillance video, if the scene investigation has been completed here, then it can be considered optimistic." Qi Tianhua sighed, "I heard the cleaner say that there are places in the house where there is no place to put your feet." β
Kang Ge patted him on the shoulder, asked about the approximate location of the property, took the elevator downstairs with Yan Xue, found the property in all directions, and explained the situation to the staff on duty, the other party's attitude was naturally very cooperative, and he didn't seem to have any surprise at the location of the crime.
"Actually, I shouldn't say that, it's not good after all, but it's really not unusual for that family to have an accident." The property duty staff helped the two of them adjust the surveillance video, and said with a sad face, "The owners on our side are really not easy to serve, but others are pursuing a higher quality of life, and the living environment standards must be high.
This family is different, this family is really the kind that is dedicated to causing trouble for us, and also for others to find unpleasant! Almost every once in a while, some owners called to complain about their family, saying that their family always brought outsiders into the house, and they didn't know who it was, and it was very noisy, so that the neighbors were not resting well.
We contacted their people every time, hoping to remind them, pay attention to a little in the future, but the little girl in their family simply ignored my phone call, never answered, can only find her parents, her parents are not only in the field all the year round, and the attitude is particularly bad, we remind a little, they said that the house is bought with their money, they spend money to buy the house to live how they want, how happy to come, they don't go to others to point fingers, others can't care about them. β
Although most of these words were complaining, they also made Yan Xue and Kang Ge hear an important detail - that mansion can basically be regarded as a young woman living alone on weekdays, and her parents are out of town and don't come back often.
"Their family often calls friends so lively? Shouldn't your access be strictly regulated? Yan Xue asked.
The property duty officer sighed: "Didn't people say it, the house was bought by other owners, and it was their freedom to live as they wanted, and we couldn't control it!" So as long as they are willing to bring it in, and the owner signs the registration, we have no right to stop it, and we don't let people and friends get together, right? β
"How often does the family bring their friends home? Who are the people who are brought? How can it still provoke frequent complaints from neighbors? Kango asked as he waited for the officer on duty to retrieve the surveillance footage of the building the day before.
"I can't say it, sometimes I bring a few people back every three or five days, sometimes I don't say it's bringing people back for a long time, that little girl doesn't go out by herself, and she can't see anyone for a long time, if it weren't for the registration of the takeaway to loosen their house, we can all be free from their house!"
The staff searched in the many folders, and couldn't help but take the opportunity to answer Kanggo's question to complain: "The people brought back, we can't say what type of people they are, what kind of people they have, but most of them are young people, basically I haven't seen anyone who is too old, they are all twenty or thirty years old, maybe they have a wide range of social circles!" β
Soon, the surveillance video of the building at the scene of the crime was found, according to the information provided by the property staff, the unit was one ladder and one household, with a total of fifteen households, but in fact, about half of them were idle, and some of the seven or eight families bought other properties elsewhere and left their old houses idle, and some of them emigrated or moved abroad, and they did not come back for a long time.
This brings a benefit - there are fewer people in the building, and there are fewer people using the elevator, so they can push the start time forward a little more for the sake of insurance, and play a round first at high speed, so that they can try not to miss any possible clues without wasting too much time.
The surveillance video inside the elevator was playing quickly, and when the time in the corner of the screen came to more than three o'clock in the afternoon of the previous day, the long-standing elevator finally started, rose to the top floor, the elevator door opened, and a girl who looked to be in her early twenties appeared in the picture.
"Whoa! This is the girl from that house! The property staff pointed to the person on the screen with some headaches, as if it was already unpleasant just to see her.
