Sixty-six. Death of the Engineer
Nothing happened one day, an ordinary four o'clock afternoon. Only Tong Hao and I were left in the office, Cao Yang and Xiao Yu went to deal with the knife robbery case in the South Block, and Xiao Yu called to say that the prisoner had been controlled by the police. Tong Hao and I breathed a sigh of relief.
"Let's go, go clean up, and try the knife-wielding robbers in a moment." I said to Kirio.
"Let me go, I didn't arrest him, how do I know how to interrogate."
"It's been a few days since you've been here, so let's feel the process of interrogating people and learn to learn. I guess the captain will have to come in and let you go in a moment, I'm here to give you a vaccination. β
As soon as I finished speaking, the office door opened. As I expected, it was the captain.
"Tong Hao, you can also go and interrogate in a while. Learn about it. The captain closed the door and left.
I grimaced at Kirio, "It's five o'clock in a while, and I'll get off work." You have to work overtime today. The interrogation record can't surprise me, Cao Yang and Xiao Yu will definitely let you do it. I finished packing up and prepared to celebrate the day when I was about to leave work.
"I should do it." Tong Hao reluctantly agreed.
As soon as the voice ended, the phone in the office rang.
I motioned for Kirio to pick it up, and he picked up the phone.
"This is the criminal police team of the Public Security Bureau."
I watched Tong Hao's expression slowly change from initial calm to panic, "Okay, we'll be there soon." β
"What's going on......" I wasn't done.
"In a residential building in the West District, there was a man who committed suicide. The caller was his wife. We must make a trip now. β
"Let's go!"
"By the way, I just said something over there and how I took it again." Tong Hao looked dazed
"Because our public security bureau's police mechanism is to call the police center first, if it is not a big case, they will handle it themselves and then tell our criminal police team, but if there is a case where human life is at stake, they will generally transfer to us. Leave that alone and go to the police. I rushed out of the office to the captain's office.
All my performances showed that there was a case.
"You two go, I'll wait in the office for your news." Before I could make a report, the captain spoke.
Walking out of the captain's office, Kirio Hao also cleaned up. When I got to the first floor, I took the car keys, and then got into a police car.
The speed of the car was very fast, and it didn't take long to reach the address mentioned by the informant. It's an ordinary residential building, more dilapidated than ordinary. I also have some impressions of this community, and the distance from my home is not too far. I often see it every time I take the bus. The two of us showed our police IDs, and the janitor at the door opened the door in a panic.
"Ahh Hurry in. β
As soon as I entered the door of the community, I saw a fairly young woman standing there unkempt, wearing pajamas. There is no doubt that this man is the informant.
"You reported the crime." I asked softly.
"Yes, my husband committed suicide." There were still some sobs between her words, and when I looked closely, her eyes were red, obviously crying.
"Don't talk about it here, let's go to your house."
The woman led the way in front and we went up to the fourth floor. The woman's trembling hands seemed to have no strength to open the door, and she searched the keyhole up and down for a long time. Weakly opening the door, we entered the house.
The woman didn't seem to dare to go in, just stood in the doorway and pointed to the bedroom. "My husband committed suicide in the back room, he hanged himself."
I nodded, put on my gloves and went to the back room, and in a few short steps I looked around and saw that the furniture in the woman's house was very ordinary, and it did not look like a rich family. It's not extravagant, but it's clean.
The door to the back room was closed, "You closed it?" I asked, standing outside the room.
The woman at the door nodded.
I tried to open the door, and standing in front of me, I could feel Kiriho in the back nervously adjusting his breathing. The first time I went to the police, I opened the door suddenly, and the first thing I saw was a pair of heels standing in front of me, raising his head slightly, and a man in his pajamas hanging himself at home with his back to me.
At this moment, colleagues from the forensic section of the police station and forensic doctors came, and a large number of people gathered in this dilapidated community, which really frightened the woman.
I watched the forensic team and the forensic doctor busy in the back room, so I told Kiriho to keep an eye there, and I came outside.
"I haven't asked your name yet. What was the name of the deceased. I said as I pulled out my police handbook.
"My name is Lu Ping, the deceased is my husband, my name is Wan Qingshun, and I am an engineer." The woman said with tears in her eyes.
The three words "engineer" instantly made me a little sensitive, and I didn't know which tendon in my head was wrong.
"Where is your husband? Engineers generally have units. β
"In Ruiye Real Estate, I am also there, he is an engineer and I am an ordinary clerk."
If it is an engineer of Ruiye Real Estate, I think I only know the person who built a police patrol booth at the entrance of our community that day.
It wasn't that coincidental, I thought to myself as I went to the back room. The deceased had been laid flat on the ground, covered with a white cloth. Wang Tonghao stood next to him.
"You take a look at the white cloth."
"Me?"
Tong Hao took a deep breath, his eyes looked out the window and slowly pulled back the white cloth, although it had been some time since the deceased died, but I can still vaguely remember the face. I can't believe it, and it becomes a true portrayal of my heart.
I took a half-step forward just to see more clearly. My mind instantly went back to the engineer who worked at the gate of my neighborhood a few days ago. That's right, the two are the same person.
After seeing the scene in front of me, I just couldn't believe that there was no trace of pain, and facing life and death seemed to have become the norm of my life. It seems like everyone I know is going to have a bad day, and that's an exaggeration. Everyone who was killed probably just knew me, that's all I could tell myself.
Colleagues from the forensic and forensic departments quickly left the scene of the crime, and only three people were left in the noisy room. The silence is frightening. When the woman saw the body being taken away, she summoned up the courage to enter the house, and motioned for us both to sit down.
"Do you need tea?" She said politely.
"If you can, plain water will do." I said a little unceremoniously.
Lu Ping was very surprised by my words, she put down the tea that had been brewed on the coffee table, turned around and went into the kitchen. She waited about ten minutes before she came out of the kitchen.
"Why is it so long?"
"I'm sorry, there are only two cups at home, and I've washed them now." With that, she placed two cups full of water in front of me.
I took a big sip of water, "Was there anything strange about your husband before he committed suicide?" β
"My husband has been very unhappy lately and always seems to be in a bad mood, but I don't know why?"
"Can I look at your husband's bedroom now?"
"Yes."
Tong Hao was uncharacteristically this time, and became very brave to stand in front of me and enter the bedroom, I think it was probably the reason why the body was removed.
The dΓ©cor of the bedroom is very ordinary, and there is nothing strange about it. A double bed, a computer desk, a wardrobe and nothing else.
"Can I take a look at the closet?" I asked.
"This ...... Look. The woman said reluctantly.
"Thank you." After I finished speaking, I opened the wardrobe, and there was nothing strange in the wardrobe, the clothes were divided according to men and women, most of the men were summer clothes, and most of the women were winter clothes...... Close the closet.
"Senior, look at this."
I saw Tong Hao holding a notebook in his hand, I took it, and the first page of the notebook read......
