Several people made a movement in their hands, and the words stopped, looking at each other, but no one responded.

From their faces, the hesitation was clearly visible.

Obviously, they got some gossip, although they discussed very fiercely in private, as an after-dinner conversation, and they didn't need to distinguish between truth and falsehood at all, and they didn't need to distinguish between them.

Even if they may inadvertently spread "rumors", they will not care too much and will not go to their hearts.

But when faced with the interrogation of the criminal police, it is inevitable to have such and such concerns, and even fear.

On the one hand, it may be that a rat poop spoiled a pot of porridge, or someone with a heart was behind the scenes, causing the public security to have a bad reputation, and even had a bad impression that most of the case-handling personnel were arrogant and pampered and did whatever they wanted.

Although there have been great improvements in recent years, there are still quite a few people who hack them, or they may spread the bad impression caused by a very small number of people to the entire police force.

On the other hand, it may also be the fear of retaliation by the perpetrators, and some other messy or even bizarre reasons.

Thinking of this, Qi Yuan gradually gained some enlightenment, and he was probably able to understand what Brother Song had said before, or what the difficulties represented.

If it were him, I am afraid that there would be no other way to think of except to repeat the words that Brother Song had just said again, and once the two sides fell into silence completely, the atmosphere would be very awkward.

If we do not grasp the initiative, it will be difficult to carry out the inquiry work effectively. This is the same regardless of whether it is an interrogation or an interrogation.

Brother Song just quickly swept around everyone, and then directly selected a middle-aged woman who looked about forty or fifty years old, and asked again: "Hello, do you know what happened to this convenience store on the side?" ”

A hint of realization flashed in Qi Yuan's eyes again.

If you ask multiple people, everyone may be silent and will not answer, but if you choose a specific goal and throw a more obvious question, generally speaking, it is not good for the other party to continue to remain silent.

Just like in the classroom, if the teacher asks a question directly, the student below may not give any response at all, but if a student is asked to answer by name, even if he doesn't know anything, he has to reply without knowing.

The reason is actually very simple, the reason why Qi Yuan couldn't think of it before was because he didn't think about it, or because he didn't open up because of his lack of experience.

Sure enough, the woman suddenly seemed a little flustered, and she held back for a long time before saying, "This ...... This is ...... It's none of my business, I ...... I don't know, I don't know anything, don't ask me. ”

"Don't worry, I know it's none of your business." Brother Song immediately said: "Let's just ask some questions and get more evidence, you don't have to be nervous." ”

After a formal sentence was appeased, he immediately threw out a sweet date: "According to the relevant regulations, if you can provide valuable clues for solving the case, we will also provide you with a clue collection bonus." ”

"Bonus?" When the woman heard these two words, she was stunned for a moment, but looking at her expression, she was obviously still skeptical.

Then, she immediately waved her hand: "Forget the bonus, what do you want to ask?" First of all, I really don't know what's going on......"

"It's okay, you just know what to say." Brother Song hurriedly took over the words, and then quickly glanced at the rest of the people on the side.

In his eyes, Qi Yuan looked thoughtful, but he didn't know if he had really gained something, or if he was just in a daze; As for the others, the look of vigilance on their faces had obviously dissipated a lot.

All in all, the opening was a success.

So, he asked, "What time do you usually open here?" ”

"Huh?" The woman was stunned, not expecting him to ask such a seemingly completely unrelated question. But at the same time, she also instinctively replied: "Usually the door opens at about half past eight or nine o'clock, and you have to prepare a lunch meal or something." ”

"It's early, your business here is pretty good, right?"

"It's okay." She was a little more relaxed, saying, "It's almost full at noon, but if it's late, you'll have to queue up if you're late." ”

Of course, Brother Song knows that the "side evening" in her mouth refers to the evening, and reading on the right side is also the instinct of most people.

He didn't correct it, there was no need for it, and then he asked a few ordinary questions with a smile and chatter.

These questions may seem unrelated to the case, but in fact, the relevance is quite large.

For example, the time of opening the door determines whether they are likely to see the suspect and hear suspicious movements;

Business and word of mouth affect whether the suspect is likely to dine at this hot pot restaurant, and then determine whether the surveillance probe can capture the appearance of the suspect.

There are a lot of questions like this, but there is a lot of information, such as this hot pot restaurant, which can be regarded as a 'family industry', the owner is the third nephew of this woman, and the others are either related to the family or hired by the villagers.

Moreover, this kind of homely inquiry also makes the person being questioned let down his guard little by little.

Finally, seeing that the time was almost ripe, Brother Song threw out the first question that was slightly more relevant to the case: "The owner of the convenience store next door should be familiar with you, right?" ”

"It's not raw," said the woman, "I can't say a few words, but sometimes I can't find money, so I will change it."

Occasionally, he would bring some people to our store for dinner, and we would give him a discount, and a few descendants would go to his store to get cigarettes and alcohol, and he would also give a purchase price. ”

After a pause, she finally showed her curiosity and asked, "I heard that there was an accident in the store and someone was killed?" Is it he who died or was it the small worker he hired? ”

Brother Song raised his eyebrows slightly, showing curiosity, which means that her heart has opened up a lot, as long as it is not too sensitive and sharp questions, she should not refuse to answer anymore.

But he didn't answer directly, but asked a new question: "He also hired a small worker?" ”

"Please, a girl." The woman said: "She is not always there, she only comes when she is free, helps to organize the shelves, sees how many things are left, whether they need to be stocked, etc., and sometimes helps him with cashiers, and he sits next to him and plays games."

My nephew asked him, the girl was still a college student, he gave her money by the hour, ten yuan a clock, and my nephew also thought about whether to follow his example and recruit some college students.

But in the end, there is still no trick, washing dishes, washing vegetables and delivering food, we are not short of people, and there is a special platform for takeaways, no need. ”

Brother Song understood, silently wrote down this clue, and then asked, "Do you remember what this girl looks like?" ”

"I remember." She nodded, then heyed, "The one who died can't be this girl, right?" ”
