Chapter 43: Compartment Questioning

Although this hall is expensive, it is very good.

Soaking in the bathhouse is a big hobby of men, and this hobby is probably no less than smoking, drinking, and touching mahjong, and the enjoyment it brings to men is self-evident.

This spacious hall No. 1 is crowded with fifty seats.

In the inner part of the hall was a bathing place, and a white curtain with the words "Mengeido" was hung on the door, and men came and went.

The sound of chatting, greetings, back knocking, and snoring in the hall was endless.

The people who had just arrived anxiously and helplessly waited for the vacant seats to appear at the door of the hall.

But those who come to take a bath, not only have spent money, but the ticket is quite expensive, so naturally they have to wash and soak more and lie down to get back the ticket price.

Therefore, it has to be half a day smaller for the ownership of the recliner and the position to take place a shuffle.

A master running the hall tossed a few hot towels to a few guests who had occupied reclining chairs for a long time, reminding them in a tactful way that it was time to vacate their seats.

After a while, Xiao Lizi led two running hall runners and two pedicure masters over, both of whom were wearing Mengrongtang's special white overalls.

Director Mao led the group into another cubicle in Hall 1, where towels and bath towels were stored and changed.

In the cubicle, there is a shelf for bath towels and towels and a professional washing machine, and next to it are two long wooden benches, presumably used by the masters to rest temporarily.

Director Mao arranged for everyone to sit down.

This cubicle is the only place in the bathhouse where you can talk, and the place is not very spacious.

The hall is noisy, and it is difficult for people to concentrate in this environment.

Ling Hu Yunfei observed that the two masters of the running hall were young men, and the other two pedicure masters were slightly older.

It looked like one was in his fifties, and the taller one was in his early forties.

The older pedicure master still holds a pedicure knife in his hand and a sharpened skin hanging from his waist.

He also had a leather bag tied around his waist, which contained different models of pedicure knives.

He really knows how to use his time, and he is not idle, rubbing the delicate knife against the skin repeatedly.

The young pedicure wears a special lamp on his head, and there is still a mist on the lampshade.

"A few masters, these public security comrades want you to identify two people." Director Mao said.

Several masters looked at each other.

Xiao Luhan took out a few simulated portraits of No. 1 and No. 2 from his bag and handed them to them one by one.

Xiao Lizi suddenly got up and walked up to the elderly pedicure master, pointed to a portrait in his hand and said, "Master Ran, isn't this person the guest who often looks for your pedicure?" ”

Zhao Zimeng and his entourage focused their eyes on the face of this master.

Master Ran was stunned for a while, then nodded and said, "Hmm...... Xiao Li is not wrong, this person seems to have asked me to repair his feet. ”

Zhao Zimeng and his comrades came to the spirit, and the hard work finally paid off, and the case was a bit eyebrow-raising.

Another young master who ran the hall interjected: "Yes, this person often comes." ”

"You've also seen this person, what's this little master's surname?" Zhao Zimeng asked.

"My surname is Liu. yes, this guy is weird, he always sits in the 20th and around the 20th. ”

"Little master, you are very meticulous in your observation!" Linghu Yunfei praised.

"Hehe, how sharp my eyes are, our business here is good, there are a lot of people, and there are often not enough seats." The little master in the running hall was a little proud.

"Whenever this man comes to bathe, as long as the 20th is empty, he will definitely sit there. If the 20th is occupied by someone else, he will definitely choose a seat near the 20th. He continued.

Many people have an almost stubborn preference for orientation, which may be what we call habit – or habitual psychology.

Some men have a more stubborn habit of going to the bathhouse to take a bath, and they always like to sit in the same seat.

But if you like it, you like it, and the seats in the bathhouse can't belong to anyone one person all the time.

If someone else sits in the seat you like first, you can only settle for the next best thing and choose a seat near this seat to fill the imbalance in your heart.

Several people recognized Number One at the same time. It seems that No. 1 did appear in Mengeitang.

Under Director Mao's arrangement, Master Ran and the little Master Liu who was talking just now stayed.

Director Mao and the other two went out - the waiters ran away, and the bathhouse business could not be done.

Zhao Zimeng's heart finally opened up a little at this time, and sure enough, if he stepped on the iron shoes, there must be a place to find it.

The four of them finally made a new discovery in this century-old church.

Ling Hu Yunfei took out a cigarette and a lighter from his pocket, handed Master Ran and Xiao Liu a cigarette, and then lit the three of them and his own cigarettes.

Xiao Luhan took out his notebook and pen and prepared to take notes.

"Master Ran, please remember well, what does this person look like?" Zhao Zimeng said.

Master Ran took a puff of his cigarette, and then said, "Comrade, there are many guests who come here, and I have a little impression of this person." ”

"This person looks about thirty-five years old, and his height is about the same as Xiao Liu."

"I'm six or seven meters." Xiao Liu said.

In the autopsy report of No. 1, the height is about 1.67 meters.

"He has long hair, a notch in one of his right front teeth, and a short chin." Master Ran described.

"Yes, this person is a "heaven and earth", and his mouth is weird and scary. ”

"Xiao Liu, this person hasn't come to take a bath for a few days." Master Ran said.

"yes, I haven't seen it in a few days." Xiao Liu said.

"How long has he not been here?" Zhao Zimeng continued to ask.

"It's been almost a month." Xiao Liu said.

Zhao Zimeng deduced: The time of death of No. 1 is about half a month, and it takes a few days to rob the tomb, which is consistent with the time provided by Master Ran and Xiao Liu.

"How's this guy dressing?"

"This person doesn't dress the same way as everyone else." Master Ran said.

"How is it different?"

"I didn't care about the clothes outside, but he likes to wear floral pants, oh, coquettish."

"In these years, there are such fancy men! Every time he came, he wore these pants. Master Ran couldn't understand.

It's no wonder that Master Ran can't get used to it, in this era, people's aesthetics have indeed changed a lot, and there is more pursuit of the style and color of clothes.

But it is still rare for a man to pursue fashionable tricks like this.

Deceased No. 1 was also wearing a pair of floral trousers.

"Xiao Liu, have you paid attention to what this person is wearing outside?" Master Ran looked at Xiao Liu thoughtfully.

"I remember that he liked to wear suits, that kind of suit, and the pants were the same." Xiao Liu's memory is very good.

"It's gray, yes, he wears it a lot."

"Do you care, what kind of shoes he wears?" Xiang Daimo said.

Master Ran shook his head.

Xiao Liu also shook his head.

Master Ran and Xiao Liu didn't pay attention, and it was already very good to remember the color and style of the clothes.

Xiao Luhan took out a stack of photos from his bag, took out three photos and handed them to Xiao Liu:

"You carefully identify the clothes in these photos, whether this person has ever worn them."

One photo is a silver-gray trousers, another is a pair of shoes, and another is a pair of pants.

Last night, after returning to the criminal investigation team, Lin Di washed out the photos overnight, she washed a total of two sets, and this morning, she handed over a set of photos to Xiao Luhan.

"Oh, the color of the pants is like the one in the photo. I don't remember these pants very well. This person has a lot of flower pants, and the color of the dress is different every time he comes. I don't know the shoes. ”

After Xiao Liu finished speaking, he handed the three photos to Master Ran's hand.

Master Ran took the photos, looked at them one by one, and then said, "Yes, yes, I remember, this person wore trousers of this color, which seemed to be silver-gray, a little shiny." Well, that's the type of pants. ”

"What's this person's accent?" Zhao Zimeng asked.

"He doesn't speak." Master Ran said.

"Don't you say a word?"

Zhao Zimeng thought to himself: Is it because he is afraid of exposing his accent if he doesn't speak?

"I've never seen him talk to anyone." Xiao Liu affirmed Master Ran's statement.

"He doesn't speak, how can you communicate with each other?" Zhao Zimeng said.

"When he comes, he will wave to me, and I know that I am going to give him a pedicure."

"When he gave him a pedicure, he slept. Although he didn't speak, he was very polite. ”

"You're welcome? Where can you see it? ”

"Every time I get a pedicure, he gives me a few cigarettes, at least two." Master Ran said.

"yes, he gives us cigarettes once in a while." Xiao Liu said.

"What brand of cigarette does he smoke?"

"China brand - or soft China." Xiao Liu said.

Comrades once found a Zhonghua brand cigarette case in the Westinghouse at No. 117.

Could it be that the cigarette case was dropped by No. 1?

At this time, the tentacles of comrades' thinking are extending deeper.

"Master Ran, you just said that you had a pedicure, and he slept?" Xiao Luhan said.

"Yes, when I got my pedicure, he slept."

"Sleep? Have you been sleeping? ”

"Well, he doesn't seem to get enough sleep."

"Did he come here to consume any other services besides pedicures?" Linghu Yunfei said.

"This person has pedicures, back rubs and massages, and he is very good at enjoying it." Xiao Liu said.

From the autopsy of No. 1, it is not difficult to see that this person was a delicate man before his death, and he must be the kind of person who knows how to enjoy himself.

Isn't it just to come to the bathhouse to enjoy?

"Does he have a fixed master for back rubbing and massage?"

"Yes, it's all Master Yao rubbing his back and massaging him. This will be estimated that these two masters will be in Hall 2. ”

"Xiao Liu, go and invite Master Yao and Master Xiang here." Master Ran said.

"Come on, go right away." Xiao Liu got up and ran out.

After a while, Xiao Liu led the two masters in.

Zhao Zimeng and Ling Hu Yunfei stood up and let the two masters sit down on the bench.
