After Hong Qifeng said this, he fell into thinking again.

A long time ago, he realized that behind this case, there seemed to be a pair of invisible hands controlling the whole thing, but until today, these hands were hidden in the shadows.

But judging from today's crash, those hands in the dark are finally in action! This shows that he is on the right track, and may have hit the crux of the matter.

At the same time, he also had to consider that once these hands moved, they would not simply stop with just one move, and normally there should be a series of continuous movements.

If Hong Qifeng knew the experience of He Mo and Liu Haoran at this time, he would definitely confirm his idea even more.

But now, he just wants to rush to Kangtai Nursing Home as soon as possible, and he can't let Xiao Haiyan do anything, otherwise they will finally get clues, and they will be cut off again and fall into a dead end again.

Thinking of this, Hong Qifeng involuntarily stepped on the accelerator with his feet, he wanted to see Xiao Haiyan as soon as possible.

When I arrived at Kangtai Nursing Home, it was already around nine o'clock in the evening.

From the outside, most of the rooms in the nursing home have been turned off, and the only few lights left should be the reception room and the duty room.

After all, most of the people who live here are elderly, and their sleep time will be fixed earlier. And there must be staff on duty at night, because who can't guarantee that so many elderly people will not have a little emergency at night.

Hong Qifeng didn't hesitate at all, and when he came up, he revealed the identity of the captain of the criminal investigation team and asked the staff to help him find Xiao Haiyan's room.

The staff on duty was a young female nurse, and after learning of Hong Qifeng's request, she said in embarrassment: "It's all at this point, many old people have a bad temper, and if you go to wake them up now, you will definitely not have a good look." ”

"And I can't let you in without permission." Finally, she added.

When Li Yunbai heard this, he hurriedly said: "This is a criminal investigation case, there is no way to scruple so much, you call your leaders now, we really want to see Ms. Xiao Haiyan immediately." ”

The nurse had no choice, she didn't dare to obstruct the criminal investigation case, so she had to call and report to the leader.

After a simple application, she took Hong Qifeng and Li Yunbai to the door of Xiao Haiyan's room.

Before Hong Qifeng knocked on the door, the nurse also specially instructed: "You should speak and move softly for a while, so as not to affect the rest of the other elderly people." ”

Maybe it was because she didn't want to be blamed by the old people who woke up, but after getting Hong Qifeng's promise, she turned around and went back to work in the duty room.

Hong Qifeng knocked lightly on the door twice, but there was no response.

He knocked three more times with a little more force.

At this time, his heart was in his throat, and if he couldn't wait for a response, he was ready to break down the door to see the situation.

"Who, so late?" Fortunately, there was a response inside, although there was a disgruntled complaint in the voice.

"Hello, we are criminal investigators, looking for Ms. Xiao Haiyan." Li Yunbai hurriedly asked.

Squeak.

The door was opened a slit, and a pair of eyes peered out warily through the slit.

"Is it Ms. Xiao Haiyan?" Li Yunbai asked into the eyes in the crack of the door.

The person in the door nodded and said, "I am Xiao Haiyan, who are you?" ”

After receiving an affirmative reply from the people in the door, Hong Qifeng's heart finally let go. He hurriedly answered Xiao Haiyan's question gently: "Hello, we are from the Municipal Criminal Investigation Team, and we have a few questions I want to consult you, I'm really sorry to disturb you so late." ”

Xiao Haiyan hesitated, but slowly opened the door, took a step back and said, Come in and talk.

Hong Qifeng and Li Yunbai thanked each other and walked into Xiao Haiyan's room in turn.

As soon as Hong Qifeng came in, he quickly looked around: there was no TV in the room, only two beds and a set of tables and chairs, a mirror and a radio on the table, and a separate bathroom inside, standard nursing home facilities.

Xiao Haiyan put on a piece of clothing, slowly walked back to the bed and sat down, then stretched out her finger and pointed to the bed opposite, motioning for Hong Qifeng to sit down as well.

Hong Qifeng sat down opposite her according to the old man's instructions, while Li Yunbai sat on a chair at the table not far away.

The only lamp turned on in the room was on the bedside table next to the old man's bed, and with the help of a somewhat dim light, Hong Qifeng could see her face clearly.

The old man's hair was almost entirely white, her eyebrows were sparse, and furrow-like wrinkles covered her cheeks, and her eyes were small and slightly swollen, and her eyeballs were bloodshot.

At the moment, her face is indeed not very good, and no one who is called up for questioning in the middle of the night will have a good face.

Hong Qifeng suddenly understood why the nurse just now left in a hurry.

"You are Ms. Xiao Haiyan?" Hong Qifeng confirmed again.

The old man nodded, looked at Hong Qifeng and asked, "What are you looking for me?" ”

"We want to ask someone, her name is Han Tongyue, do you know her?"

Xiao Haiyan didn't react too much unexpectedly, just nodded briefly and said, "I know, I used to be colleagues with her." ”

"As far as I know, you all worked in the finance department for more than a year, but then you were sent to the front-line workshop, why is this?"

"Why else, I made mistakes in my work, miscalculated the accounts, and was punished and sent to the front-line workshop." Xiao Haiyan's voice didn't hear any emotional fluctuations, as if she had already let go of the past over the years.

Hong Qifeng nodded, took out the two knots he was carrying, handed them to Xiao Haiyan and asked, "Take a look at these two knots, do you have any impressions?" ”

Xiao Haiyan looked at the two knots in Hong Qifeng's hand closely, shook her head and said, "I haven't tied knots for many years, and I don't remember anymore." ”

"Do you really remember?" Hong Qifeng was a little disappointed.

Xiao Haiyan shook her head expressionlessly and said, "I'm old, I really can't remember." ”

Hong Qifeng sighed secretly in his heart, and asked unrelentingly: "Then do you know that Han Tongyue will tie these knots?" ”

Xiao Haiyan thought for a moment before slowly saying, "She should be." ”

"Probably so?" Hong Qifeng asked suspiciously.

"She's ingenious, and she's always been good at these things." Xiao Haiyan replied.

"Aside from ingenuity, do you remember those things about her, for example, do you know about her good friend Qiu Feng?"

"Ye Qiufeng? I know that she was also a colleague of mine, but she died very young. ”

"How did she die?" Hong Qifeng asked deliberately.

"Hanged himself." Xiao Haiyan said calmly: "I remember that Ye Qiufeng has always been relatively small-minded, and he belongs to the kind of person who likes to drill the horns of the bull, and it is normal for him to hang himself in the end. ”

"Ye Qiufeng's heart eyes are relatively small?" Hong Qifeng was very surprised, he hadn't heard Cao Ying talk about this.

"Who would hang themselves?" Xiao Haiyan said very firmly.

"Did she leave a suicide note or something?" Hong Qifeng then asked.

Xiao Haiyan thought for a while and said, "I don't know much about this. ”

Hong Qifeng was a little helpless, the information he got from Xiao Haiyan was not symmetrical with the information Cao Ying said.

Hong Qifeng had no choice but to change directions and ask again: "Then let's talk back to Han Tongyue, you should be more clear about her affairs, right?" ”

Xiao Haiyan nodded slowly.

"Can you tell us more about what kind of person she is?"

"Well," Xiao Haiyan pondered for a moment and said, "She is a person who has a bad style of life, and the relationship between men and women is rather chaotic. ”

"What?" Hong Qifeng was taken aback, this information completely subverted his habitual thinking.

"Everyone in the factory at that time knew that she was often very close to different male workers, most of whom were factory leaders. Oh, by the way, not only in the factory, but also in the men outside. ”

"Men outside? Who is it? ”

"I know one, that is, the husband of Ye Qiufeng you just mentioned, who seems to be surnamed Cao."

Hong Qifeng was stunned, his thoughts were confused for a while, and he didn't know where to start.

But Xiao Haiyan continued: "It is said that Ye Qiufeng's death is also related to the matter between the two of them. ”

Hong Qifeng couldn't believe his ears, he subconsciously asked, "Are you saying that Ye Qiufeng hanged himself because he knew the relationship between them?" ”

"Yes." Xiao Haiyan replied crisply.
