Chapter 40: Stealing

"Okay, let's go over together." After listening to Huzi's report, Lu Cheng took his subordinates and followed the counselor to find the boy who had stolen his underwear.

As they walked on the road, the counselor introduced the boy's information to the group.

"His name is Wang Tao, and his grades in the class are about average, so we do pay less attention to him in normal times." The female counselor raised her glasses and reflected: "But he seems to be a very Sven student, usually speaks quietly, doesn't seem active but doesn't cause trouble, so we all ignored him, I didn't expect him to steal." Hey, it's also our job that isn't in place......"

The female counselor looked a little annoyed, but also very responsible, and said some emotional words in detail.

"Teacher Chen, don't worry too much, we'll investigate clearly." Xiaomei on the side comforted her. The counselor's surname is Chen, and he is about 30 years old.

After a while, the group arrived at the door of the teaching building.

Lu Cheng asked Teacher Chen to go to the classroom to find Wang Tao first, and the group stood near the stairs at a certain distance from the classroom.

It's the end of class now, and the students are all chatting and moving in a scattered manner, and no one noticed the movement of their group at first.

Until a girl shouted at the door of the classroom: "Wang Tao, Teacher Chen is looking for you." ”

The boy named Wang Tao sat alone behind a desk, looked down at his phone, heard someone shouting his name, looked up, and saw the counselor standing in the doorway, so he got up and walked towards the door.

When he got up and walked, he lowered his head again, as if this was his habit, and he didn't want to have any contact with others.

The idle classmates next to him began to gather behind him, and they were talking and curious.

The counselor came to visit suddenly, and the person he was looking for was a thief who was found out some time ago, although the school teacher did not deliberately spread the news among the students, but there were many well-informed students in the school.

They heard the news through various channels, and it quickly spread among students of all grades and majors.

Even if you don't know Wang Tao, you've heard his name somewhat.

At this time, many students who were watching the excitement had already discovered a few strange strangers in the distance, although Lu Cheng and several of his subordinates were not in the habit of wearing police uniforms, but there were still many onlookers who whispered.

Seeing this scene, a person stood up behind Wang Tao, and it was a boy who was slightly taller than Wang Tao.

The boy was wearing a white half-sleeved shirt and jeans, tall and thin, with short and neat hair, and overall gave a clean and harmonious feel.

I saw him walk quickly to the middle of the crowd behind Wang Tao, and persuaded him in a low and serious voice: "Don't look at it, disperse, disperse ......."

He waved his arms and made an impatient expression.

Unexpectedly, his set was quite effective, and all the people who saw his dissatisfied expression automatically walked away and stopped watching.

After dispersing the crowd, the boy in white walked to Wang Tao's side and walked with him to the counselor.

At this time, Shen Ran and Lu Cheng had been observing the movement of the classroom not far away.

They all saw the boy in white who helped Wang Tao.

"Who's that boy?" Shen Ran asked.

Xiaomei and Xiaohu next to him shook their heads and said, "We don't know about it yet, so I'll ask later." ”

"Follow-up investigation should be more careful." Lu Cheng instructed.

After Mr. Chen and Wang Tao said a few words, they took Wang Tao in the direction of Lu Cheng and them.

The boy in white was still following him, walking towards him together.

"This is ......" As soon as the three of them approached, Lu Cheng asked first.

"Oh, this is the class president, Zhou Haoxuan, he is very dedicated to the classmates, Wang Tao because of the previous incident, although he has been punished by the school, but there will inevitably be some radical actions and remarks among the classmates, Haoxuan will help adjust when he sees it."

While Teacher Chen was talking, Zhou Haoxuan had already waved his hand again and again, indicating that he had not done anything.

"Oh, that's right. We just saw you helping him. "Lu Cheng Road.

"That's the case, I saw that the other classmates were all around him, and I was afraid that he would be inconvenient, so I helped him catch up. It's okay now, then I'll go. After speaking, Zhou Haoxuan was ready to leave here.

"Wait, as the class leader, you should have a clear grasp of the situation in the class, and we also want to know something from you, do you think it's okay?" Lu Cheng said.

"Oh, good." Zhou Haoxuan glanced at the counselor and knew that this was probably something that the school was going to investigate, so he agreed without thinking about it for too long.

Under the leadership of Mr. Chen, they found a small academic seminar room to talk.

There was a long wooden table in the seminar room, and Mr. Chen invited Lu Cheng and his party to sit down on one side, and then walked up to Wang Tao and whispered to him: "If the police have anything to ask you in a while, you can answer truthfully." ”

She patted Wang Tao on the shoulder, trying to give him encouragement and courage.

At this time, Wang Tao still lowered his head, lowered his eyes, and did not look at the few strange policemen in front of him.

His demeanor hadn't changed much along the way.

Before he could sit down, Zhou Haoxuan on the side also came over to cheer him up.

"Don't be afraid, they are all policemen, they can say anything, what you haven't done, no one will wronged you."

After this encouragement, Wang Tao finally sat down.

However, he still did not look at the policemen in front of him.

Lu Cheng had no choice but to report to his home first: "Hello, I am Lu Cheng, deputy captain of the Second Brigade of the Criminal Investigation Detachment of the Shen City Public Security Bureau, I came to you today to learn about some information, three days ago, between six and eight o'clock in the evening, where do you remember?" ”

"Dormitory ......"

He spoke quietly, but he did speak.

"Okay, are there any other witnesses?"

He shook his head, then seemed to lower his head.

"Isn't there anyone else present? Have you been in the dorm all night? ”

After asking this question, Wang Tao did not answer immediately.

Just when everyone was waiting for him to speak, Shen Ran noticed that his body seemed to be trembling slightly.

He was about to open his mouth to ask a question, when he saw that Wang Tao was trembling a little obviously.

"He cried." Shen Ran blurted out.

"Crying?" Lu Cheng asked. At this time, several other people around also noticed Wang Tao's change.

He trembled more and more, so much so that at last he could not hide his sobs, and cried even louder.

Xiaomei on the side hurriedly found a tissue and handed it to Wang Tao.

Wang Tao took the tissue and touched it on his face, it could be seen that he didn't want people to see him crying, but he couldn't restrain his crying, so he could only lower his head.

Just like that, I want to cover it, but I can't stop it, which makes people feel very uncomfortable to watch.

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry......" he began to apologize nonstop.

Teacher Chen hurriedly helped him out of the siege and said, "Wang Tao may not have seen so many policemen, so he is a little nervous." Then he said to Wang Tao: "Are you scared, the police won't wronged you, you don't have to worry too much......

Before Teacher Chen finished speaking, Lu Cheng said, "It's okay, if classmate Wang Tao feels very uncomfortable now, then let's ask again next time." ”

Lu Cheng was not ready to force Wang Tao, after all, the evidence was not collected sufficiently, and he didn't want to say that the police had no choice.

After Wang Tao left, Zhou Haoxuan was left, and Lu Cheng roughly asked him about the situation in some classes and grades.

Including after Wang Tao was arrested, whether any of his classmates reacted abnormally, and whether the missing Li Yuwen had a holiday with any classmate, and so on.

The police also asked Zhou Haoxuan for some personal information, and it can be seen from his information that he is indeed a good student with excellent character and learning.

In addition to serving as class president, he also holds the position of vice president in the student council and is expected to be the president of the next student council.

"Okay, then we'll get to that for today." After chatting with Zhou Haoxuan, Lu Cheng and his party left the research room.

Lu Cheng was going to take a look at the surveillance video and other evidence, if it could be determined that the person who appeared near the girls' dormitory building that day was Wang Tao, even if he cried again, he would be arrested and questioned thoroughly.

"What do you think of the process just now?" Now that Lu Cheng is used to taking Shen Ran with him, he has to ask him for his opinion.

He trusted Shen Ran's intuition.

"He looks like he's timid."

"Well, I've rarely met such a person who cries easily, and it's still a boy. However, his state seems to have been a bit problematic, and he has been wilting from the beginning. ”

"He is indeed quite wilted, and Mr. Chen's introduction to him at the beginning was that he was a very gentle student, and he was usually not active or troublesome. However, Mr. Chen did not say that he was timid. The detail that Shen Ran said inspired Lu Cheng's thinking.

He also remembered the counselor's description of Wang Tao at the beginning, he didn't expect Shen Ran to remember these details in such detail and seriously, he just wanted to praise Shen Ran, but he was attracted by the turn in his later sentence.

He thought along the lines.

"That's true, she doesn't have that description."

Shen Ran continued: "Judging from Wang Tao's performance just now, he is no longer an ordinary timid, and his reaction is different from ordinary people. If he was usually such a timid person, it was impossible for the counselor not to observe. ”

"I won't miss this description." Lu Cheng continued his words.

"Yes." What Shen Ran wanted to express was what Lu Cheng meant. "Unless that's typical of him, it's hard to explain where he is today.

I saw that he was a little wilted, but what I valued was that he seemed to be scared. ”

"If he's not a timid person, what is he afraid of? The police? Lu Cheng asked rhetorically.

"Would a person of little courage choose to steal?" Shen Ran looked at Lu Cheng, and the two looked at each other.

Each saw the next inference in the other's eyes.

"Our monitoring room is here, and it's all here about the neighborhood surveillance that night." Before they knew it, they had followed Teacher Chen to the school's security room.

The footage in the surveillance video is not very clear because it is a night picture.

As Teacher Chen said, this back is indeed very similar to Wang Tao's figure, a little chubby, and about 175 tall.

But this is not evidence against him.

They also need more clues.

Let's start with his alibi, he didn't finish talking today, if he is really in the dormitory, it shouldn't be difficult to find witnesses, even if he didn't go out all night, there are traces to follow.

"Look at the monitoring of the boys' dormitory again, see if Wang Tao has any entry and exit records, and compare the clothes."
