Zhao Gang and Qin Tian returned to the police station.

"Do you know what to do now?" Zhao Gang asked.

"Yes. Look for the person in a wheelchair in the monitor. Qin Tian replied.

"Alright, let's get started. Hopefully, this time, we will have a harvest. Zhao Gang clapped his hands happily and said.

Once again, they turned on the hotel's surveillance video.

In the surveillance video, they found a person in a wheelchair and a person pushing a wheelchair.

Sitting in a wheelchair was a man with his head bowed and a hat that made his face unclear. In his hand, he also held a cane, which was placed horizontally on his knee.

Pushing him in the back was a woman. However, the woman seems to be a little old, wearing a pair of reading glasses and a bad face. Moreover, the hair on both sideburns has also turned gray.

"Brother Zhao, look at these two people, can you tell that they are Anne and Wang Kai?" Qin Tian asked, "Anyway, I can't see it." ”

"It's right if you can't see it. They just don't want us to see it. Zhao Gang said.

"The man in a wheelchair can't see his height, he can't see his face, and he can't be sure if it's Wang Kai." Qin Tian said.

Then, Qin Tian said again: "And that woman." Her hair is gray, she wears reading glasses, and she doesn't look like Anne no matter how she looks. ”

"Have you forgotten that women nowadays wear makeup?" Zhao Gang said, "It's not easy to become a beauty, isn't it easy to become an ugly girl?" ”

"But her hair is gray?"

"It's not easy! Something that can be done with a wig. Zhao Gang said, "Don't forget, the purpose of their makeup is to deceive us." Will it make us easily recognizable? It's normal not to recognize it. ”

"Yes. It seems that they are well prepared. Qin Tian said.

"The reason why we didn't see it before was because the wheelchair was blocking Anne's leg. So, we don't see her inner eight characters. Zhao Gang said.

"Who would pay attention to a person in a wheelchair! I couldn't have imagined that they would come out in wheelchairs. Qin Tian said.

"So, these two people should not be underestimated." Zhao Gang looked at Qin Tian and said solemnly.

However, since Anne chose a wheelchair to cover her inner figure, why did she wear a miniskirt when she pretended to be Xiaomei? Isn't this self-exposure? ”

"I think she chose a wheelchair not to cover her inner figure. Otherwise, she should wear a long skirt directly. However, when she pushed the wheelchair, she was still wearing pants. Zhao Gang said.

"Then why did she come out in a miniskirt when she was pretending to be Xiaomei?" Qin Tian asked.

Perhaps, she didn't notice her inner eight at all. She didn't expect that we would notice her inner eight characters. She wore a long skirt into the community, it was really just a coincidence. Zhao Gang said.

"If that's the case, it's really a hundred secrets!" Qin Tian said.

"Any crime will definitely leave a trace." Zhao Gang said. Then, he added, "Look what time they come out of the hotel!" ”

Qin Tian looked at it and said, "Four o'clock." ”

Zhao Gang thought for a moment and said, "From the hotel where they live to the community, it only takes ten minutes by car." Half an hour of walking, the time is about the same. ”

"Now, isn't it time to check the surveillance at the entrance of the community? Go find someone in a wheelchair. Qin Tian said.

"Wang Kai may be wheelchair in, maybe not." Zhao Gang said, "Let's take a look first!" ”

"We have searched before, but we have not found anyone like Wang Kai. What if I can't find my wheelchair again? ”

"Let's look for it first!"

"I don't remember seeing a wheelchair on surveillance before." Qin Tian said.

The two looked through the surveillance at the entrance of the community several times, but did not find anyone in a wheelchair.

"It's really strange, Wang Kai is obviously out of the hotel in a wheelchair, why can't he find it in the monitoring at the entrance of the community?" Qin Tian asked.

"There's a good chance he didn't get in in a wheelchair." Zhao Gang said.

"Not in a wheelchair? You mean, he's dressed up again? Qin Tian asked.

"It's normal. Isn't Anne dressed differently when she leaves the hotel and when she enters the community? Zhao Gang said, "Therefore, it is not surprising that Wang Kai changed his costume." ”

However, no matter how much he dressed, the man would still be easier to recognize. However, in this video, we really didn't find him! The more Qin Tian thought about it, the more strange it became.

"What if he didn't go in as a man?" Zhao Gang asked.

"You mean, he's dressed as a woman?" Qin Tian's eyes widened.

"Quite possibly. Only in this way can he hide his original appearance to the greatest extent. Zhao Gang said.

"However, if this is the case, then I guess we can't find it." Qin Tian said disappointedly, "Dressed as a woman, it is impossible for us to recognize him in the surveillance." ”

"That's right. They didn't want us to recognize it. Even if we find it in the surveillance, they won't admit it. After all, they can't be recognized clearly in the surveillance. Zhao Gang said.

"What then? Still looking for it? Qin Tian asked.

"The evidence of surveillance is too one-dimensional. They would not admit it if there was no other evidence. Zhao Gang was also confused.

"But where are we going to find evidence? The useful clue we have so far is that the fingerprint on the hook matches Anne's. Everything else, it's useless. The most crucial evidence is that the skin tissue remaining between the fingernails of the deceased is not theirs. Qin Tian sighed.

"It's also a very strange place. Who exactly is the deceased? Is there a relationship between her and Anne and Wang Kai? Zhao Gang was also puzzled.

"If the deceased was not killed by Anne and Wang Kai, then who killed her? Could it really be Xiaomei? ”

"However, in the end, Anne pretended to be Xiaomei, how can you explain this?"

"The only explanation is that Mei killed the deceased, and Anne killed Mei again." Qin Tian analyzed.

"Anne's motive for killing Xiaomei is easy to explain, because she found out that Wang Kai was cheating after being raped. Immediately afterwards, it was found that Wang Kai gave Xiaomei 200,000. Then, I found out that I was pregnant. In the end, the child was beaten out in a lot of confusion. It can be said that she did this because of the intensification of hatred, because she was unwilling, so she wanted to take revenge. Zhao Gang said. Then, he said, "But what is Xiaomei's motive for killing the deceased? ”

Qin Tian thought for a moment and said, "This, I'm afraid only Xiaomei herself knows." ”

"From the moment Anne walked out of the community posing as Mei, Mei was most likely dead. Otherwise, there was no need for Anne to do so. Zhao Gang said.

"You're right. Anne is trying to create an illusion for us, a false impression that Mei herself is missing. In this way, they can push everything onto Xiaomei. Qin Tian said.

"The dead cannot speak. Push everything on Xiaomei, and they will have nothing to do. As for our evidence, it doesn't really constitute evidence at all. They can come up with a hundred reasons to explain it. Unless, we can find more convincing evidence. Zhao Gang said.

"Corpses?"

"Xiaomei's corpse, or the head of the deceased." Zhao Gang thought for a while, "We can only see if we can make a breakthrough from these two aspects." ”

"If Mei is really dead, and her death is indeed related to Anne. Then, the time of her death should be the thirteenth. Qin Tian said.

"What I can't figure out now is, when did they kill Xiaomei? Is it before moving flowers out of the community? Or after they entered the neighborhood for the second time? ”

"If they killed Xiaomei after entering the community for the second time, then they are absolutely premeditated murder. Otherwise, it would not have been possible to do such thorough preparations. ”

"Perhaps, Xiaomei was killed by them when they went to move flowers? In this case, their so-called moving flowers out is just a casual excuse to cover up. Including going to the hotel to open a room, and then leaving the hotel and returning to the community, all this is for the aftermath. The second time they entered the community, it was very likely that they were there to dispose of the corpses. Zhao Gang said.

"When you say that, I remember something." Qin Tian said.

"What's the matter?" Zhao Gang asked.

"Didn't we go to the rental house again last time? You find out that no, Anne's room has no windowsill, only one window. And Xiaomei's room has a windowsill. ”

"What did you find?" Zhao Gang asked.

"I really want to remember that I saw two very shallow round marks on Xiaomei's windowsill. You say, could it be the mark left by those two pots of flowers? ”

"You mean, there were no flowers in Anne's room at all. The flowers they moved out were actually moved out of Xiaomei's room? ”

"I think it's very likely. Of course, I'm not sure. In case Anne had kept flowers in her room, it was not impossible. Qin Tian said.

"If, those two pots of flowers really moved out of Xiaomei's room. Then, before they come out, there is a good chance that Xiaomei will be dead. Zhao Gang said.

"Perhaps, they killed Xiaomei. However, I couldn't find a suitable excuse to explain the reason why I came to the community, so I moved two pots of flowers casually. If someone finds out that they have been to the community, they can say that they have come to carry flowers. Anyway, Xiaomei is dead, and no one knows that they are lying. Qin Tian said.

If this is the case, then Anne and Wang Kai may not have made an appointment in advance at all. Since moving flowers is just a temporary cover-up, they have no reason to make an appointment in advance. Zhao Gang said.

"If it wasn't made in advance, it would only be Anne stalking Wang Kai. Wang Kai actually went to find Xiaomei, and Anne saw Wang Kai enter the community only to enter. It is very likely that she went to catch the adulterer. Qin Tian said.

"Then, in the process, there was a conflict and Anne killed Mei?" Zhao Gang asked.

"It's possible that it was intentional. Possibly, not intentionally. Qin Tian said.

"I think it could have been an accident." Zhao Gang thought for a moment and said, "If Anne was premeditated to kill Xiaomei, she should have done a very meticulous and accurate job." For example, changing up to disguise your identity or something. It will not be easy for us to find out that she has entered the community. Zhao Gang said.

"That's right. From them moving flowers out of the community, as well as going to the hotel to open a room to create alibi evidence, and then sneaking into the community in disguise to deal with the aftermath. Judging by these actions, they should be very thoughtful. Qin Tian said.

"So, if it's intentional homicide, they're going to do a lot of preparation. Don't temporarily find an excuse like moving flowers to cover up. Zhao Gang said.

"It seems that maybe they didn't kill people intentionally. It's just that an accident happened. They had to take some measures to deal with the aftermath. Qin Tian said.

"Since Wang Kai is looking for Xiaomei, and he has no motive to kill Xiaomei. Then, it is very likely that after Anne came to the door, an accident occurred, which led to Xiaomei's death. Zhao Gang said.

Qin Tian thought for a moment and said, "However, in the surveillance video after they moved out, we didn't find the picture of Wang Kai entering the community again. Is it possible that Wang Kai did not participate in the aftermath? ”

"No way. Wang Kai must have been involved, at least in the process of disposing of the corpses. Otherwise, there would be no need for him to get out of the hotel in a wheelchair. From the moment he left the hotel in a wheelchair, I had already decided that he had nothing to do with it. ”

"Yes. If it's really dealing with corpses, then Anne is a woman, and it's really not good! ”

"If it's just a skull, she might be able to. However, if it was to deal with the whole corpse, she should not have so much strength alone. Zhao Gang said.

"According to the on-site inspection, they cut off the head of the female corpse in the refrigerator in the bathroom. However, only traces of the blood of the female corpse in the refrigerator were found in the bathroom, and no second person was found. Qin Tian said.

"In other words, if Xiaomei died, she should not have been dismembered." Zhao Gang said.

"Or, Xiaomei didn't die in the rental house." Qin Tian said.

"Regardless of where Xiaomei died, at least, they shouldn't have transported her body out of the community." Zhao Gang said.

"Could it be that they divided the body into many pieces and transported it away in batches?" Qin Tian said.

"Even if they transport the body out and dump it, it's very likely to be found. Besides, they didn't dissect the bodies in the rental house, so where did they do that? Inside the community? That's not realistic! Zhao Gang said.

"Isn't the female corpse in the refrigerator headless? If you're going to say that Anne shipped her head out, then I still believe it. However, if they want to say that they split up Xiaomei's body and shipped it out, then I really don't believe it! Qin Tian said.

Zhao Gang thought for a moment and said, "If Anne really transported the head of the female corpse in the refrigerator out, then where would she hide it?" ”

"Could it be that you threw it in the trash?" Qin Tian said.

"No, it won't. If you throw it in the trash, it will soon be discovered. Zhao Gang said, "I think she must have hidden it somewhere." ”

"Hide? Where would I be safest to hide? Qin Tian asked.

"If you had something important, where would you hide it?" Zhao Gang asked.

"Very important things, of course, are hidden in the house. What safer place could be than at home? Wouldn't it be more reassuring to be able to watch it every day? Qin Tian said.

When Zhao Gang heard Qin Tian's words, he seemed to suddenly remember something, and he fell into deep thought.

After a while, he raised his head and asked Qin Tian, "Do you remember the pot of flowers in Annie's house?" ”

"They have so many flowers, which pot are you talking about?" Qin Tian asked.

"The pot that Linglong won't let us touch, it's meaty." Zhao Gang said.

Qin Tian seemed to suddenly realize and said, "I remembered." You're talking about the jade pendant, which is indeed a bit strange. ”

"You think it's weird too?" Zhao Gang asked.

"Yes! You say it's a good potted plant, why do you want to spray it with perfume! Qin Tian said.

"I remember Linglong saying that Anne would perfume that pot of fleshy perfume every day. How could a normal person go and spray perfume on a pot of unscented meat? Even if you want to spray, you don't need to spray once a day! Unless......" Zhao Gang glanced at Qin Tian and said meaningfully, "Unless, she is hiding some other taste." ”

Qin Tian said thoughtfully, "You mean, what is hidden in the flower pot?" ”

"Not bad. Moreover, Linglong said that Anne sprays every time she comes back from work. Why not spray it before going to work? Because if you spray it before going to work, when you come back from work, the smell of perfume will dissipate. And during the day, there is no one at home, so there is no need to spray. There is no one at home until she comes back from work, so she can find a time to spray to cover up what she wants to hide. Zhao Gang said.

"Could it be that the head of the deceased is hidden in that flower pot?" Qin Tian asked.

"I have this suspicion." Zhao Gang said.

"I think it's very likely. Perfume is sprayed to mask the smell of rotten meat! Qin Tian said.

"It's a pity that we couldn't open the pot and take a look." Zhao Gang said regretfully.

"At that time, Linglong tried desperately to block it, and we couldn't force it open!" Qin Tian said.

"It was because of Linglong's attitude that I realized how much Anne valued that potted flower. It was precisely because of this that I became even more suspicious. Zhao Gang said.

"But that's all speculation. Besides, we don't have enough evidence in our hands to ask to open the pot of flowers! Qin Tian said.

"When we find the evidence, we can go and open the pot openly." Zhao Gang said.

But if Anne was really the murderer, what was her motive? Moreover, the deceased was not Xiaomei. Why did Anne kill the dead? Qin Tian asked.

"Whether there's anything in the pot or not, we can't be sure. Perhaps, it is possible that it is an ordinary pot of flowers. Even if there is a secret hidden in the pot, it must be a head? Even if it is a head, must it be the head of the deceased? Don't forget, Xiaomei is also missing. Zhao Gang said.

"But there's no point in us guessing here! No key evidence could be found, and the case could not be broken through. Qin Tian lamented, "Now, the only thing that may still provide clues is that pot of flowers." ”

"Then, let's go straight to Anne's house and open the pot of flowers. As long as there is something in it, Anne just wants to quibble, and it is impossible. Zhao Gang said.

"But what if there's nothing in it? Wouldn't it be unruly for us to do this? Qin Tian said.

"I'm sure Anne must have something to do with this case. As long as we find something in the pot, it can be used as key evidence. So, I think it's a risk. Zhao Gang said.

"Okay, then do as you say." Qin Tian echoed.

(b)

Anne was busy at her desk when her phone rang.

Anne picked up her phone and saw that it was a call from Zhao Gang.

"It's annoying!" Anne thought to herself. He hung up the phone.

Soon, the phone rang again.

Anne looked at it and ignored it.

Linglong next to her reminded Anne: "Anne, your phone rang, why didn't you answer?" ”

"Oh, don't care, a very nasty guy hit me." Anne replied.

"Oh, that's it!" Linglong turned her head back and stopped talking.

After a while, the phone rang again.

Anne picked up the phone and saw that it was still Zhao Gang calling. Impatiently, she picked up the phone and walked out of the office.

"Hey, hello!" Anne answered the phone.

"Hello, Annie, I'm Zhao Gang."

"Officer Zhao, why are you still calling me? I'm at work and I'm busy. Anne's tone didn't sound very friendly.

"We'd like to make an appointment with you and talk about it again." Zhao Gang said.

"There's really nothing more to talk about, I've said everything I need to say. By doing so, you've seriously affected my life. Anne complained.

"I think we need to talk about it again." Zhao Gang's tone was very resolute.

"What if I don't talk about it?"

"I hope you will cooperate with the police."

"Officer Zhao, I've been very cooperative with you. I said, I'm busy. I have to work overtime today and don't have time. ”

"And when do you get off work?"

"I don't know."

"Okay, so what are you free?"

"I don't know when I'm free. I can't be sure. ”

"Alright then, we'll call you again."

"Whatever!"

With that, Anne hung up.

Zhao Gang put down the phone and sighed.

"What's wrong?" Qin Tian on the side asked.

"She didn't want to see us. She's been avoiding it. Zhao Gang said.

"So what do we do?" Qin Tian asked.

"The more she avoided us, the more I felt there was something wrong with her." Zhao Gang said.

"However, if people don't want to see us, we can't force them! She's not a suspect now! Qin Tian said.

Zhao Gang thought for a moment and said, "We have to go to her house." I think there must be something wrong with that potted flower. ”

"To her house? They didn't even want to see us, and they couldn't agree to let us go to her house again. Qin Tian said.

"She just said she would be working overtime tonight." Zhao Gang looked at Qin Tian and said thoughtfully.

"You want to? Going while she's not home? Qin Tian asked.

"We'll wait for her at her doorstep." Zhao Gang said, "She works overtime, and that Linglong will definitely come back." ”

"What if Linglong also works overtime?"

"Then we'll wait at their doorstep. It doesn't matter who comes back first, anyway, we must go inside. It's all at the door, so you can't let us go in and sit for a while! Zhao Gang said.

"What do you mean, is it lying at the door of someone's house?" Qin Tian asked.

"It's not Lai, it's for the case, for the search for evidence." Zhao Gang corrected.

"Well, that's what it means, anyway!"

"No matter what method is used, this time, we must seize the opportunity and find a way to open that pot of flowers." Zhao Gang said.

"It's too hard, isn't it? They wouldn't let us touch the pot. Qin Tian said.

Zhao Gang paused for a moment and said, "So, you can't do it without their consent." ”

"What do you mean? Blatantly open? Qin Tian said.

"Don't be so direct, to be tactful." Zhao Gang said.

"How?" Qin Tian asked.

"When the time comes, no matter which of them comes back first, we will have to find a way to get into the house. Then, you're responsible for diverting and grabbing their attention. I would pretend that I didn't want to go around to the balcony and then accidentally break the pot of flowers. Zhao Gang talked about his plan.

"Is that possible?"

"Don't worry, as long as you hold them down for me. Breaking the flower pot was only a matter of moments. Zhao Gang said.

"But what if there's nothing in there? How embarrassing that is! Qin Tian said.

"If there's really nothing in there, it's very likely, and we won't have any hope of going there in the future." Zhao Gang looked at Qin Tian, "Don't you want to know, is there anything in it?" ”

"Of course! Seeing it, it's about to find the most critical thing. Qin Tian said excitedly.

"Then go ahead with our plan. It's a matter of success or failure! Zhao Gang said imposingly.

So, before Anne and Linglong got off work, the two came to their door early to wait.

"You say, Anne is going to work overtime today, is it true or not?" Qin Tian asked.

"It doesn't matter if it's true or not. It may be that it is really working overtime, or it may be that it is lying to us. Zhao Gang said.

"What if, waiting for Anne not to let us in?"

"If Anne really works overtime, it's Linglong who comes back first. In that case, she should let us in. If Anne doesn't work overtime, maybe she will come back with Linglong, but for the sake of face, I guess she won't keep us out. ”

"But what if Linglong works overtime and Anne comes back alone?" Qin Tian asked again.

Zhao Gang glanced at Qin Tian and said, "That's very likely, she really won't let us in." ”

"God willing, it's Linglong who hopes to come back." Qin Tian muttered to himself.

After a while, the elevator doors on the floor opened, and the two heard footsteps coming towards them.

Both of them breathed a sigh of relief.

Then, they heard the voices of two people, Anne and Linglong.

Their hanging hearts were then relaxed.

Anne and Linglong walked to the door of the house and saw Zhao Gang and Qin Tian, and Anne and Linglong were taken aback.

Zhao Gang opened his mouth first and said, "Hello Miss Anne, we are waiting for you here!" ”

Anne was stunned for a moment, and it took a while to come back to her senses. She glanced at Zhao Gang and said, "How did you find here?" ”

When Linglong next to her heard this, she remembered the last time she brought them to the house. She suddenly felt a little guilty, and she wanted to explain it to Anne. However, as soon as she wanted to speak, before she could say anything, Zhao Gang preemptively spoke.

"Oh, we're the police, it's easy to find out where you live. Please understand, we are also here to solve the case! Zhao Gang said to Anne.

"In order to solve the case, you can't come to my door to block me! Am I a suspect? Anne said angrily.

"Don't be angry just yet. Because today I called you and you said you were going to work overtime. I thought, in that case, we'll wait for you here, you're going to go home after all! Zhao Gang said.

Then, Zhao Gang asked again: "What, didn't you work overtime today?" ”

Anne knew what Zhao Gang meant, she didn't know what to say. I had to say casually: "It was supposed to be added." Temporarily canceled. ”

"Oh, that's it! Well, it seems, we were lucky. Zhao Gang said jokingly.

At this time, Linglong next to her took out the key in a trembling and frightened manner, and said to Annie, "Annie, shall I open the door first?" ”

Anne glanced at Zhao Gang and nodded to Linglong.

Linglong opened the door.

Anne stepped in with a kick and threw the bag on the couch. Then, I sat down on the couch.

Linglong glanced at Annie, and then at Zhao Gang and Qin Tian outside the door. She asked Anne, "Do you want to invite them in?"

Anne's heart was in turmoil. She thought for a moment and said, "Whatever!" ”

"Oh, then I'll let them in!" Linglong said.

Anne didn't speak.

Linglong said to Zhao Gang and Qin Tian outside the door: "Come in and sit!" ”

"Thank you!" Zhao Gang and Qin Tian thanked Linglong.

Then, the two followed Linglong into the house together.

"Sit down as you please! I'll pour you two glasses of water. Linglong said to them.

"Thank you!"

"You're welcome!"

Soon, Linglong poured three glasses of water. One cup was given to Annie, one cup was given to Zhao Gang, and one cup was given to Qin Tian.

"Then you guys get busy first. I'm going out to buy something. Linglong said to them. At this time, she just wanted to get away from this embarrassing scene as soon as possible.

"Okay, thank you!" Qin Tian said to Linglong.

"It's fine." Linglong replied.

After speaking, Linglong walked out of the door and closed the door.

"Miss Anne, I'm sorry to bother you in this way." Zhao Gang said.

"Okay, just ask whatever you want!" Anne said unkindly.

Zhao Gang looked around the house and said, "Your conditions here are really good, and the house is beautifully decorated." ”

"No need to say these polite words." Anne said calmly.

"The rent of such a good house must be very expensive, right?" Zhao Gang said again.

"Good house, of course the rent is more expensive. You've asked about this before. Anne said.

"Of course, you get what you pay for, although it costs a lot of money, but the living conditions are much better than the place you lived in before." Zhao Gang said again.

Then he asked, "Do you like to raise flowers?" ”

"What's wrong?" Anne glanced at Zhao Gang and asked.

"Oh nothing, just ask. Didn't you and Wang Kai go back to the community where we lived last time? I think you must be a person who loves to raise flowers, otherwise, why would you still want to go back and move flowers after so long! ”

"Yes, I love flowers." Anne said.

"Then, Xiaomei, who lived next door to you before, does she raise flowers?" Zhao Gang asked tentatively.

Anne suddenly seemed to be on her guard. "I don't know about this." I hadn't entered her room. ”

"Haven't you been in her room?" Zhao Gang asked again, "Are you sure?" ”

"What am I going to do in someone else's room?" Anne seemed to think that Zhao Gang had something to say.

"However, we found a hook on the wall of Xiaomei's room with your fingerprints on it." Zhao Gang stared at Annie, he wondered what her reaction was.

Anne was visibly taken aback, and then immediately she pretended to be nonchalant and asked, "What hook?" ”

Then, Anne picked up the cup, lowered her head, and took a sip of water.

At the moment, her brain was racing.

She knew what Zhao Gang's words meant. They were already suspicious of her.

"There is a row of nails on the wall behind the door of Xiaomei's room, and there is a hook glued to it next to it. Don't you know? Zhao Gang asked.

Xiaomei thought in her heart, at this time, if she said that she didn't know, it would obviously be impossible. It has its own fingerprints on it, and it is already an ironclad fact that I have touched the hook myself.

She thought for a moment and said, "I remembered the hook you mentioned." When I rented the house, I noticed that a nail had fallen from it, so I bought a hook to glue it on. Any questions? ”

"Nothing. Just to make sure you know the hook. Zhao Gang said.

At this time, Zhao Gang saw the white bag again, which was still lying in the corner of the sofa.

"That white bag, is it yours?" Zhao Gang asked.

"Yes! What's wrong? Anne asked.

"It's pretty good. Small and delicate, perfect for you. Zhao Gang said.

At this time, Zhao Gang glanced up at Qin Tian. He glanced at Angel Qin.

Qin Tian immediately understood what he meant.

Qin Tian immediately went to pick up the bag on the sofa and said, "It's really good-looking." I think my sister should look good with a bag like this. ”

With that, Qin Tian picked up the bag and came to Anne.

"Where did you buy this bag? I want to buy one for my sister, she's on her birthday. Qin Tian said to Anne.

"I bought it in Sanya." Anne replied.

"Sanya? That's too far, is there anywhere else for sale? Qin Tian asked again.

"I don't know. It doesn't seem to be. I haven't seen it. Anne said.

"Is it available online?" Qin Tian asked again.

"I don't know. Search for yourself! Anne replied.

At this time, Qin Tian took out his mobile phone.

"This, how should I search for this? I won't! You help me take a look. Qin Tian asked Anne for help.

"You open Taobao first. Then search again. Anne said.

"Oh, it's ......" Qin Tian said as he rummaged through his phone.

"I don't seem to have a Taobao." Qin Tian said to himself, "I'll go first."

Then he asked Anne, "How many Wi-Fi passwords do you have?" ”

Anne gave a string of numbers.

"It's too long to remember. Wait a minute, you can type it for me! Qin Tian said to Anne.

Anne took Qin Tian's mobile phone and began to enter the wireless network password for him.

When the two were tinkering with their mobile phones, Zhao Gang casually walked around the house. Before he knew it, he was on the balcony.

"Okay, it's good to lose. You can go to Taobao next time. Anne said to Qin Tian. and returned the phone to Qin Tian.

"Oh, good." Qin Tian took the phone and began to download Taobao.

At this time, Anne saw Zhao Gang standing on the balcony. Then he asked, "Officer Zhao, what are you doing there?" ”

Zhao Gang turned his head and said, "I'll take a breath of fresh air." I'll come in when you're done. ”

After speaking, Zhao Gang stood on the balcony, motionless, looking into the distance. A look of viewing and enjoyment.

Anne saw that Zhao Gang was standing there without moving, so she didn't say anything.

At this time, Qin Tian next to him asked Annie again: "It's okay." How to search? ”

"Search the white bag!" Anne said.

Qin Tian typed "white packet" into the Taobao search box. At this time, a lot of white packets popped up.

Qin Tian flipped through it and didn't see Anne with the same style.

"No! Look at it, is there no one like yours? Qin Tian asked again.

Anne took the phone and slid down, but she really didn't see the same model.

"How can I find your style?" Qin Tian asked.

"You can buy something else! You don't have to buy this! Anne said.

"I thought you were pretty good-looking, and I fell in love with it at first sight. I think my sister will definitely like you. Qin Tian said.

"Then take a picture and give it a try!" Anne said.

After saying that, she used the camera in the Taobao search box to take a picture of the bag.

As a result, I still didn't find a bag of the same style.

"Why can't I find this bag on the Internet?" Qin Tian said, "I think this bag is quite distinctive." ”

"It's because it's quite distinctive, so I can't find it!" Anne said.

"And how did you get it?" Qin Tian asked.

"I bought it in a small shop in Sanya. At the time, the shopkeeper said that this was a specialty item, hand-sewn. Anne said.

"Then you have a good eye!" Qin Tian said.

"I hit it at first sight. I thought this style was quite special, so I bought it. Anne said.

"It's a pity, it looks like I can't buy this style." Qin Tian complained, "What a pity! ”

"Actually, you don't have to buy this kind of gift for your sister. There are so many beautiful styles! Anne comforted him.

"That's all there is to it. Why don't you help me pick one! I think you girls will pick some. Qin Tian pleaded with Anne.

"Alright then!" As she spoke, Anne took Qin Tian's phone and began to help him pick up the bag on the Internet.

At this time, Anne didn't notice that Zhao Gang was standing in front of the jade pendant.

Zhao Gang observed the jade pendant in front of him, these small green beads were too luxuriant, and they had completely burst the pot.

Zhao Gang thought for a while, if he wanted to pull them out of the flower pot one by one, it would take a lot of time. Even if you pull them all out, you can only see the soil on the top of the pot. You can't see if there's anything in the soil at the bottom. Because this pot is a tall cylindrical pot.

And, in doing so, it's too obvious. It is possible that the flower was discovered by Anne before it was completely pulled out.

Zhao Gang thought for a while, if he wanted to quickly know if there was something in the flower pot, there was only one way.

So, he looked back. Anne and Qin Tian were tinkering with their mobile phones on the sofa.

At this time, he quickly picked up the flower pot, and then, all at once, fell heavily to the ground.

I only heard a loud "bang", which startled everyone.

Zhao Gang hurriedly squatted down and quickly cleaned up the broken flower pot and the soil inside.

Anne and Qin Tian were startled when they heard this loud noise. Hurry up to the balcony.

I saw that the beautiful flower pot before had now broken into pieces, and the jade pendant and soil were scattered everywhere.

Anne saw it and screamed.

She yelled, "What are you doing here? ”

"I'm sorry, I accidentally tripped it just now." Zhao Gang said, "I'll clean it up for you right away." ”

After speaking, Zhao Gang said to Qin Tian again: "Why don't you come and help!" ”

Qin Tian hurriedly agreed, "Oh oh", and began to squat down and start cleaning up.

"Let's clean up all the dirt first." Zhao Gang said.

Qin Tian understood what Zhao Gang meant, and hurriedly agreed: "Okay." ”

"What are you doing?" Anne exclaimed angrily, "Do you know that this is my favorite pot of flowers. ”

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry." Zhao Gang hurriedly apologized, "We'll clean these up for you first, and then I promise to replant them for you and restore them to their original state." ”

"Revert to the way it was? The pots are all broken, how do you get back to the way they were? Anne's voice was filled with anger.

"I'll buy you an identical pot." Zhao Gang said, "For now, let's help you clean up this place first." ”

"Go away, I'll do it myself." Anne said as she went to pull them away.

Qin Tian hurriedly stood up, stopped Annie, and said, "It's too dirty here, and there is mud everywhere. You better rest by the side, you can watch us, we'll help you get it. ”

"I'm afraid you'll spoil my meat." Anne yelled, "Get out of the way! ”

"Don't worry, we won't spoil your meaty. Qin Tian stopped Anne again, "We'll help you clean up this place soon." ”

Anne pushed Qin Tian and said angrily: "What will I let open my own home!" It's you who should get out of the way! ”

"Sorry! Wait until we're done cleaning up and go! Qin Tian explained again.

At this time, Zhao Gang was quickly cleaning up all the soil in the flower pot, and did not find anything abnormal. The dirt on the succulent roots was shaken off, and there was still nothing unusual.

When Anne saw that Zhao Gang had shaved up all the soil in the pot, and even shook off the soil on the fleshy roots, she yelled angrily, "What are you doing here? Do you want to kill my meaty? ”

Zhao Gang saw that there was nothing abnormal in this soil, so he had to give up for the time being. He stood up and waved his hand at Qin Tian, and then said to Annie, "I'm sorry! I don't know how to grow flowers. I'm sorry for breaking up your dirt. ”

"Excuse me? Is that the end of a word of sorry? Anne yelled hysterically, "This is my favorite pot of meat!" ”

"I'm sorry! I'll be sure to buy you an identical pot in a moment. Zhao Gang hurriedly apologized.

"No need! I can afford a flower pot. Anne stared at Zhao Gang and Qin Tian fiercely and said, "Let's go!" I don't want to see you again! ”

"I'm really sorry. You wait for us a while, we'll go buy the pots now. Qin Tian hurriedly said.

"I said no, you go!" With that, Anne began to push Zhao Gang and Qin Tian in the direction of the door.

"Well, in that case, then we won't bother anymore. I'm so sorry! Zhao Gang said to Anne again.

After speaking, Zhao Gang and Qin Tian walked out of the door.

As soon as they stepped out with their front feet, Anne slammed the door shut.

"It's over!" Qin Tian made a helpless expression at Zhao Gang.

"Let's talk about it!" Zhao Gang said.

With that, the two came to the elevator entrance and took the elevator downstairs.

Out of the elevator, the two walked towards the exit of the community.

"Isn't there anything unusual in the pot?" Qin Tian asked Zhao Gang.

"Nope." Zhao Gang said.

"Could it be that our analysis is wrong? The head of the deceased was not hidden in this pot. Qin Tian said.

"Before, we had always thought there was something wrong with this pot. But now, it seems that this is not the case. Zhao Gang said.

"But why did Anne perfume it?" Qin Tian asked.

"I don't know. Perhaps, it's really just her personal love okay! Or maybe she did it on purpose to show us. Zhao Gang said.

"Deliberately done to show us? Why would she do that? Qin Tian said.

"It's to lead us down the wrong path. Let's suspect that there is something in the pot, and then look for it, and in the end, find nothing. In this case, we will not have the opportunity to go to her house again. Zhao Gang said.

"But how did she know we were going to her house? And she's been spraying perfume on that pot of fleshy perfume for a long time! How does she know when we're going? Qin Tian said.

"It's because we don't know when we're going to go. That's why it's important to be prepared from the start. The reason she kept doing this was so that she wouldn't be too passive when we came one day out of the blue. Zhao Gang said.

But why did she direct our gaze there? Wouldn't it be better if she didn't do anything? Qin Tian said.

"She didn't mean to direct our gaze to that. Instead, she knew that sooner or later the police would find her. When the time comes, there will definitely be a way to find the whereabouts of the corpse's head. Therefore, she thought of this in advance, so she deliberately set up the mystery of the flower pot and let us drill into it. When we got inside, we realized that there was nothing. In this case, we wonder if our judgment is wrong. Perhaps, the suspicion will be removed from her. Zhao Gang said.

"Just like I did just now, I really doubt that our own judgment is wrong. I almost said if she was innocent or not. Qin Tian said.

"The more she was like that, the more I felt there was something wrong with her. A guilty person gives himself away by conspicuously protesting his innocence. Zhao Gang said.

"Yes! Although we didn't find anything in the pot, her strange behavior caught our attention. Qin Tian said.

"This should not have been something she expected. Thinking that we can't find anything in the pot, she doubts her own judgment and thus alleviates her suspicions. However, she didn't expect it, and we began to suspect her strange behavior. A normal person would not do such a thing. When she did this, it seemed abnormal. Zhao Gang said.

"If she is really the murderer, then this woman is not simple. Dig a pit and wait for us from the beginning! Qin Tian said.

"Now, it seems difficult to get any more clues from her. We have to think of something else. Zhao Gang said with a sigh.

At this time, Qin Tian's mobile phone suddenly rang.

He picked up his mobile phone and saw that it was a colleague in the bureau calling.

Qin Tian picked up the phone......

Soon, Qin Tian hung up the phone. He turned to Zhao Gang and said, "In the garden of the community where Xiaomei lives, a female head was found. Let's hurry over. ”

"Female heads?" Zhao Gang said in surprise.

"That's right. It should be the head of the headless female corpse. Let's go over and have a look! Qin Tian said.

"Okay, let's talk as we go." Zhao Gang asked again, "How did you find out?" ”

"It was found by a resident of a community. There was a small garden behind them that was empty and untended. It's dirty, messy, and overgrown. When the tenant saw that it was empty, he wanted to reclaim it and grow vegetables. As a result, while digging in the ground, she dug up a woman's head. Qin Tian said.

"I remember when we went before, we checked the garden in the community and there was no problem! I don't see any abandoned gardens, do you? Zhao Gang recalled.

"A place we didn't know before. At the back of that building. There is a wall in the middle, and no one usually goes. Qin Tian said.

"I see. Let's take a look first. Zhao Gang said.

(c)

Zhao Gang and Qin Tian came to the community where Xiaomei lived before. I saw that a cordon had been set up under the unit building.

After Zhao Gang and Qin Tianliang issued their police certificates, they were successfully released and entered the cordon.

They walked to the side of the unit building, which had a passage about a meter wide between the unit building and the fence. They walked down the aisle and headed inside.

"Xiao Wang!" Zhao Gang called out to his colleagues inside.

"Brother Zhao, you're here!" Xiao Wang heard Zhao Gang's shout, and while waving at him, he hurriedly ran out to meet him.

"What's the matter with these bricks?" Zhao Gang asked, pointing to a messy pile of bricks stacked on the ground.

"Well, there was a wall built here to separate this place from the back. The bricks were scattered on the ground after the wall was pushed down. Xiao Wang said.

"No wonder when we came to investigate the scene before, we didn't find that there was a yard in the back. It turned out to be blocked by this wall. Zhao Gang said.

"yes, if the resident hadn't smashed this wall open this time, we wouldn't have known there was such a place behind here!" Xiao Wang said.

"Which household?" Zhao Gang asked.

"It's the resident who reported the crime." Xiao Wang said.

"Where's she? Call her here. I have something to ask her. Zhao Gang said.

"It's over there. I'll call right away. Xiao Wang said.

After speaking, Xiao Wang hurriedly went to bring the resident who reported the crime to Zhao Gang.

Zhao Gang looked at the middle-aged woman in front of him. Asked, "Is it the case you reported?" ”

The middle-aged woman looked at Zhao Gang and replied, "Yes!" ”

"Did you break this wall too?" Zhao Gang asked again.

"Yes." The middle-aged woman replied.

"Why are you smashing this wall?" Zhao Gang asked again.

"I see there's a vacant lot behind me, and it's been deserted. I thought, take care of it, grow some vegetables or something. The middle-aged woman replied.

"How do you know there's a clearing behind here?"

"I've been living here, I've been living here for almost twenty years, I don't know! People who used to know it. It's just that after this wall was built, the later people didn't know about it. ”

"Who built this wall?"

"It was built by a family who used to live on the first floor here. But now, the family has long since moved out. ”

"Why build a wall here?"

"In the past, he had a little grandson who loved to run around. And next to this open space there are two manhole covers for sewers. That manhole cover wasn't very stable. And no one has been taking care of it all the time. His grandfather was afraid that it would not be safe for his little grandson to run behind here without paying attention. So, a wall was built here. ”

"How did you find that head?"

"I just remembered it suddenly, and I wanted to clean up the land behind here and grow some vegetables. So he smashed the wall, took the catalpa and came in and turned over the ground, and when he turned the ground, he turned out the thing. ”

"Take us to see where it was found." Zhao Gang said.

"Okay."

The middle-aged woman took everyone to the desert. It's overgrown and messy. Only one piece of land that had been shoveled was slightly leveler.

"Right here." The middle-aged woman pointed to an iron tree and said to Zhao Gang, "It's just below this iron tree." ”

"Okay, got it, thanks!" Zhao Gang said to the middle-aged woman.

Zhao Gang looked around again. The wasteland was against a wall, and in the corners of the wall were some debris, wood. It's been a long time since anyone took care of it, and even the wood is starting to rot. There was also a broom next to the pile of debris, which was also in tatters, and a shovel next to it, which had long been rusted.

At this time, Forensic Doctor Zhang had already sorted out the head of the corpse and put it into a bag, ready to take it back for testing.

"How's it going, Forensic Doctor Zhang? Is it the head of the headless female corpse? Zhao Gang asked.

"It's not certain yet, and we'll have to go back for further testing. However, judging from the decay time of the skull, it is very close to the death time of the headless female corpse, and it is also very similar from the shape of the incision, so it should be eight or nine or ten. I'll take it back for further examination now. Forensic doctor Zhang said.

"Is there anything else you found besides this head?" Zhao Gang asked.

"No more. Just now, the police dog has searched in all directions, and nothing else has been found. There should be only this skull here. ”

"Okay, got it. Great work! Zhao Gang said.

"It's okay! I'll let you know as soon as the results come out. Then you guys get busy first, I'll go back first! Forensic doctor Zhang said.

"Okay." Zhao Gang replied.

After speaking, Forensic Doctor Zhang got into the car with his head. Zhao Gang and Qin Tian still stayed there to observe the scene.

"Brother Zhao, this place is really very secret! We didn't even notice it before. Qin Tian couldn't help but sigh.

"There used to be a wall, and it's normal that we didn't find it. Didn't the eldest sister just say it, only those who lived here before know. A lot of people who are new to living here don't know about it. Zhao Gang said.

"However, this place should be visible from upstairs!" As he spoke, Qin Tian looked up.

"Even if you could see it upstairs, no one would have thought of coming here. What's more, there's a wall in the way. Zhao Gang said.

Qin Tian looked up again and said, "Only this side of the room can be seen." Nowhere else can you see it. ”

Saying that, Qin Tian paused for a moment, and then said, "The room where Anne lived before should be this side!" ”

Qin Tian's words attracted Zhao Gang's attention. He also looked up, thought for a moment, and said, "That's right." The place can be seen from the room where Anne used to live. ”

"So Anne knows about this place?" Qin Tian asked.

"I should know." Zhao Gang said.

"There are so many gardens in the community that are not hidden, but I thought of hiding my head here. Then this person must know this place, and know that ordinary people don't come here. This place will not attract everyone's attention. ”

"That's right. It seems that Anne is still very suspicious. And you see, this room doesn't have a balcony. Where did Anne put the two pots of flowers she moved? Zhao Gang thought for a moment and said, "I think we'd better go up and have a look." ”

"Good!" Qin Tian replied.

The two went upstairs again and came to the room where Anne and Mei had lived before.

"Let's go to Xiaomei's room first." Zhao Gang said.

"Good!" Qin Tian replied.

The two walked into the room where Xiaomei lived before. The room really had a balcony and a protective fence was installed.

"Brother Zhao, come and see." Qin Tian said to Zhao Gang.

"What's wrong?" Zhao Gang walked to the balcony. And Qin Tianzheng was standing there.

"Look there, those two round marks, don't they look like the marks of two flower pots?" Qin Tian pointed to a trace on the balcony and said.

The balconies were fitted with a protective fence, on which a layer of wooden planks was laid. Because it has been too long, the planks have changed color. However, it is clear from the planks that two circles are visible, lighter in color than the surrounding planks.

"I think it's the traces left by those two flower pots." Zhao Gang said, "It seems that we need to go to Wang Kai's place, bring those two pots of flowers back, and compare the flower pots with these two traces." ”

"That's right." Qin Tian replied.
