After eating and drinking, it was ten o'clock in the night, everyone went home one after another, Xun Mu also sent Qi Yuan to the door of the house, waved his hand to let him rest early, and drove away again.

Qi Yuan didn't go upstairs, he was slightly drunk, and walked downstairs on the street with three points of drunkenness, he hadn't shopped for a long time, and now on a whim, he suddenly wanted to take a stroll.

But as soon as the cool breeze blew, he vaguely felt his temples beating slightly, and his head ached for a while, and he was a little uncomfortable, so he lost interest and went upstairs to sleep.

The next day he woke up early in the morning, and it was the weekend, so he played a game at home for a day, and only went out again in the evening and began to wander again.

Since three months ago, when the stall economy suddenly recovered, or the upper authorities suddenly relaxed the restrictions on the stall economy and encouraged the stall economy in turn, many cities have suddenly become lively.

However, it is only the initial stage, the rise of the stall economy is just a false proposition, and the fundamental reason to encourage stalls is to restore the economy as much as possible and seek stability as much as possible.

Because of a change, the blow to the economy is much bigger than many people expected, the weak are unemployed, many new graduates are unable to find jobs, and the number of people who are marginalized in the city is increasing, and their survival has become a very critical issue.

When the proportion of this part of the population is relatively small, their demands are niche demands, and their problems are only minor problems.

At this time, small problems have become big problems, so it is more important to solve their demands than to create and defend or something.

Everything is actually a trade-off, no matter what choice is made, it is difficult to be perfect, and many times it can only be the lesser of two evils.

Just like the banning of small vendors, it is inevitable that they will lose some vitality and some liveliness, which will make many families who are not wealthy even worse, and the cost of living and operating for many people will increase sharply, but in exchange for stability, cleanliness, safety and order that are good for most people.

Encouraging stalls can certainly reduce the pressure on these people, and relatively full competition may also reduce the price of goods to a certain extent, so that many people's living pressure has plummeted, and it is much more convenient to buy some daily necessities......

However, over-liquid vendors and shopping consumers are also bound to bring a variety of problems, such as pickpocketing and even more serious violent crimes, such as the difficulty in ensuring the quality of goods.

No matter how you choose, there are advantages and disadvantages, there are gainers and losers. It is normal for the loser to be unwilling to scold both sentences, but many vested gainers are forced to complain, which is inevitably a little stupid.

Of course, there is a compromise to get the best of both worlds, but it takes too much manpower, material resources and energy to consume, and in the case of too many people being managed and too few managers, new problems and new troubles will also arise, and one size fits all, it has become an instinctive choice.

Qi Yuan himself is quite objective and calm, he can barely maintain his sanity to look at these problems, and he is not exclusive to small stalls and vendors, like the vast majority of people, sometimes he sighs about its convenience, and sometimes he inevitably complains that there are many fakes or are too crowded and noisy, but basically only in an instant, he can quickly calm down.

What's more, three months have passed, and the number of stalls is much smaller than at the beginning, after all, although the threshold for stalls is low, not everyone can come.

There will always be people who will leave the scene.

At the beginning, there were all kinds of jokes, such as buying goods on online platforms, using seven-day refunds without reason to avoid risks, and even paying for goods with credit "property" so as not to tie up the already scarce cash.

There are really people who think it makes sense to run and try it, but most of the results are miserable.

After so many years, the price of many goods on the online platform has long been not much cheaper than offline, even if there are many that seem very cheap, they are more expensive than wholesale purchases, and they have lost their price advantage.

What's more, the return is also postage, there are not many goods with shipping insurance, and it is difficult to offset the postage, and if you buy freight insurance, with the increase in the frequency of returns, the price of freight insurance will also increase.

There are also people who take online wholesale platforms, such as World Factory, Yaoliu Baba, etc., but online wholesale malls do not necessarily support refunds without reason, and there are restrictions on the number of minimum approvals.

As a result, many speculators left the market.

There are many things that do business on, only brain holes, just relying on wit, it is far from enough, and the real money is not widely advertised by a few people.

The gust of wind in the stall economy is not enough to blow the pigs into the sky.

Compared to three months ago, there are many fewer people setting up stalls.

But it's still lively.

Among them, all kinds of food stalls occupy half of the country, and most of them are fried and barbecued, which are smoky on the road, hazy at a glance, and all kinds of flavors are mixed together, which is quite fragrant.

Well, food stalls are not allowed to be placed directly in residential areas and under residential buildings, so as not to have too much impact on residents, and at the same time, they are not allowed to occupy the road, so most of them choose to gather on the sidewalks on the side of the road.

Qi Yuan has no appetite at all now, so he is not interested in these food stalls at all.

On the contrary, there are those stalls that sell knick-knacks, and he will stop from time to time to take a look, some of which are quite interesting at first glance, and many of which are really worth buying.

For example, Douban's high-rated movie calendar, such as a fly swatter vaguely with a Mona Lisa's smile pattern, such as a disposable film camera, such as a multi-functional mobile phone case similar to a Swiss Army knife, such as Harry Potter's little wand, such as a pocket work combination set, such as a Transformer pen, such as air sand, pocket picnic belt, etc.

Some are quite practical, some are useless, Qi Yuan has bought a lot, some of which can surprise him, but the freshness will soon pass, and more of them will directly pay the IQ tax.

But there are also some that are actually used, such as the bottle cap opening artifact, which is easy to use until you cry.

There are even more necessities, such as shorts and slippers for home wear, and cheap socks for thieves.

But Qi Yuan didn't want to buy anything today-he was just shopping in a hurry and buying what he needed and leaving, but today he wanted to take a good and quiet stroll and enjoy a slow-paced life for a short time.

The hustle and bustle, stop and go, unconsciously, a smile appeared on Qi Yuan's face.

As he walked, he suddenly heard a few screams, and his professional habits made his heart tense instantly, and he suddenly looked in the direction where the sound came from, and saw a woman in her early thirties rushing out of a chess and card room not far away, screaming and screaming as she ran, shouting that she had killed someone or something.

Qi Yuan hurriedly ran to the chess and card room, and at the same time took out his mobile phone to quickly call the police, and shouted loudly to identify himself.

Rushing into the chess and card room, he vaguely heard a faint wail coming from a certain compartment, he immediately glanced left and right a few times, and saw that there were already a lot of people around to watch the excitement, and there were still a few men and women standing in the chess and card room, with their heads down and dodging, not daring to look directly at Qi Yuan, he had a rough idea in his heart, and then quickly walked to the compartment.

The door of the compartment was still locked and couldn't be opened, so he quickly came back to his senses and said coldly: "Key! Take it out! ”

"I didn't ...... No keys, officer. A middle-aged man hurriedly said.

"No keys? Are you kidding! Qi Yuan raised his eyebrows, and his voice rose a little: "Be honest and hand over the key quickly!" Delay in saving people, you are murder! ”

"There's really no key, we don't know what's going on, this door was suddenly closed, we just tried to open it, we couldn't open it, and we didn't find the key." The middle-aged man immediately explained.

Qi Yuan's eyebrows twisted, snorted, and said, "Come and two people and I will knock the door open!" ”

The middle-aged man immediately stepped forward, followed Qi Yuan and took two steps back, and slammed the door hard.

While bumping, Qi Yuan took out his mobile phone and made an emergency call, explained the situation clearly in a few words, and continued to bang on the door.

The quality of this door was not very good, it was knocked open in a few clicks, and immediately after Qi Yuan, he saw a woman in her early twenties lying on the ground, with her mouth wide open, white smoke coming out of her mouth, and she could smell the obvious smell of burning.

At this time, she was already unconscious and motionless, Qi Yuan hurriedly stepped forward and found that her pupils had also dilated, and she was already fierce.

Qi Yuan sighed lightly, and when he looked closely, he saw that she was disheveled, her neckline was torn, and there were many scratches on her neck and chest, which were scratched very deeply, the skin was broken, and blood oozed out.

She also had many burn marks on her hands and face, and several pieces of her hair were missing, many of which were either burned or curled up into patches. She still had a lot of soot on her, in her hair, and on the ground.

Looking more closely, the woman's face was flushed, and under the smell of burning, she could still smell the smell of alcohol.

"What's going on?" Qi Yuan asked with a calm face.

Several people looked at each other, but no one answered.

Under Qi Yuan's gaze, the middle-aged man from before finally stood up and said, "We really don't know what's going on, just now the guest was still playing cards with this person, and suddenly I heard a scream from this room, followed by another knock knock sound."

I was about to go to see what was going on, when suddenly someone shouted that someone had killed someone, and many of the guests immediately stood up and ran outside, and there was a direct mess here, and the mahjong tables were pushed to two, followed by the police officer. Really, just run, what kind of table do you lift......"

Qi Yuan frowned and looked left and right.

This compartment is quite large, with three tables, two mahjong tables, and a multi-functional chess table, and no windows, relying on three exhaust fans for ventilation, in fact, there are many fire safety hazards.

There was also a toilet inside, Qi Yuan walked in again and took a look, and found that there was a window in the toilet, which was covered by blinds, and at the moment the blinds were in a mess, the windows were wide open, and a few shallow shoe prints could be found on the windowsill, in the opposite direction.

In other words, the scene is not a secret room, but there is only one way to leave except for the door, and it is customary that the suspect walked from this place - unless he was cleverly arranged when he committed the crime, and he had already gone in the chess room when people heard the movement.

But this was obviously impossible, the victim had obvious signs of fighting, and he heard the middle-aged man say that the door was suddenly closed, so the perpetrator must have stayed at the scene at the time, causing a commotion before leaving in a hurry.

It can also be seen from the shoe prints that the perpetrator entered and exited the scene through the window. Of course, it is also possible that after going out, he deliberately climbed on the windowsill and stepped on it to create some false traces to confuse the police, although the possibility is not great, Qi Yuan will not easily rule it out.

What the hell is going on, a professional trace inspection will come and check, and you will know if you do a shoe print separation and coverage analysis.

In addition, Qi Yuan still had many questions in his stomach, so he asked one by one: "Does anyone know the victim?" ”

"I know each other, it's Lao Wu's daughter, called Wu Huiwen, who just graduated this year." It was still the middle-aged man who spoke: "Lao Wu is my partner, the chess and card room we opened together, I am sixty percent, and he is forty percent." In addition, Huiwen and my son are already talking about marriage, and I also regard her as a daughter-in-law.

About four or five o'clock in the afternoon, Huiwen stumbled into the chess and card room, obviously drunk high, and called dad when he came in, but Lao Wu was not there, he went back to his hometown the day before yesterday, I asked her what was wrong, why did she drink so much, she didn't say, I couldn't help it, I poured her a cup of hot water, and helped her into this room to rest. ”

After a pause, he repeated and emphatically said, "After that, this is it, suddenly I heard screams and some other movements, someone shouted for murder, and then you came, police officer." ”

Qi Yuan then asked, "When you helped her in, the door didn't close, right?" ”

"No, there was no ventilation inside, and there were few people in the store at that time, so I didn't close the door, and I went to take care of her from time to time, and I also called my son to ask him to come over, and took Huiwen home to rest, the chess and card room is not easy to sleep, and there is no bed or anything, so I can only put a few chairs for her to lie down."

Qi Yuan carefully reviewed what he said in his heart, and then continued to ask, "Has anyone been to this compartment during this period?" ”

"No, I didn't see it, and then the door suddenly closed, and I thought it was the wind blowing."

"Okay, I see." Qi Yuan squinted slightly, looked at the man twice, wrote down his appearance, and regarded him as an important suspect who needed to be investigated.

The reason is very simple, when he replied, he said that the deceased was his daughter-in-law, and at the same time, his words revealed his concern for the deceased, intentionally or unintentionally, but Qi Yuan saw his performance after rushing to the scene at the speed of light......

Anyway, Qi Yuan didn't see much concern, but he was a little dodgy at first, and his reaction after hearing the screams was too indifferent.

Even when he hit the door, Qi Yuan had to open his mouth, and he didn't know how to call the emergency number, and he was stunned when he heard the movement before, saying that he had found the key but didn't find it, and then he didn't do anything......

And it doesn't look like he's panicked or frightened.

Qi Yuan naturally had some doubts about him.
