Chapter 42: Mengrongtang
Two people sat down on the couch.
Xiang Daimo poured out two cigarettes from the cigarette case.
Sun Hongfa smiled and pushed away the cigarette in Xiang Daimo's hand: "Thank you, I don't smoke." ”
Xiang Daimo put the cigarette back into the cigarette case: "Team Leader Sun, I'm sorry, I didn't let you take a breath." ”
"It's fine."
"Team Leader Sun, you already know about the case!"
"Just now, Director Zhou has already told me a rough idea. You ask! As long as I know. ”
"Team Leader Sun, please talk about your impression of the employees of your unit."
"Rao has no problem at work, otherwise, the leader would not let him be the team leader."
But he didn't want to do it, and then the leader let me do it. His popularity is not bad, he is more enthusiastic about others, has a gentle temperament, and gets along with everyone. ”
"He still has some prestige in the group, and I will directly hand over some work to him, and he has helped me a lot. That's all I have about my impression of him! ”
"Okay." Xiang Daimo handed the two portraits on the coffee table to Sun Hongfa: "Team Leader Sun, do you know these two people on the portrait?" ”
If Rao had ever been in contact with Number One and Number Two, then perhaps some of his neighbors, friends, and colleagues had seen them.
After Sun Hongfa read them one by one, he put the portraits on the coffee table: "Comrade policeman, are these the two people who died in Huaigu Village?" ”
"Yes."
"I haven't met these two people. Do these two people have anything to do with Rao Glance? ”
"It's uncertain, now we are a basic investigation, and it is difficult to characterize anyone without evidence."
"Oh, there are a lot of buddies at Rao, and some people often come to the grain depot to look for him, but I've never seen these two men. This person ......"
Sun Hongfa pointed to the simulated portrait of No. 1 and said, "This person looks so strange. At a glance, you can remember. Would you like me to find a few more people to look at these two portraits? ”
"Not for the time being, in the preliminary investigation stage, everyone near Huaigu Village will be inquired, and if necessary, we will directly talk to Rao at a glance. Rao's neighbors don't have a bad opinion of him, and we don't want to wronged any good person. ”
"Yes, yes, I see what you mean."
"I'm looking for you, please don't tell Rao Glance."
"I understand."
"Does Rao have any other jobs besides working at your grain depot?"
"I don't know, I haven't heard anyone say it."
"I've heard that Rao has a big addiction to smoking."
"yes, he has two packs a day."
"What does he smoke?"
"Hongta Mountain."
"Does he only smoke Hongta Mountain?"
"Only draw Hongta Mountain. This kind of cigarette is not expensive, and it is not too cheap, and with the salary of Rao at a glance, you can only smoke this brand of cigarettes. ”
"Does he have any habits of smoking, such as liking to smoke until only the filter remains?"
"I didn't pay attention — I don't smoke."
Miao Jingui, who came just now, also said that he didn't care about this, it seems that in life, not many people will pay special attention to this kind of small details with a big needle nose. But it is precisely these details that are extremely important for criminal investigation.
"Do you have any good friends?"
"Do you mean the unit, or the community?"
"You can talk about the unit and the outside."
"There are two people in our unit who play well with him, Men Xuejun and Zhao Haifeng. In society, I don't know very well, or it is Chen Jialu, the owner of Baiwei Building, it is said that they used to be classmates, and Rao took us there for dinner. ”
"Rao asked Men Xuejun and Zhao Haifeng to help him on the night shift, do you know?"
"Yes, often."
"Why doesn't he work the night shift himself?"
"God knows, hey...... As long as there is someone on duty at night, we never ask who is on duty. It's normal for him to ask others to substitute for him, and everyone will help each other. ”
"Comrade policeman, that's all I know."
From Sun Hongfa, the head of the Zhongguan grain depot, Xiang Daimo failed to dig up more information.
Sun Hongfa's evaluation of Rao at a glance was even higher than that of those who had been interviewed before. The situation investigated by Xiang Daimo and Zhao Zimeng is consistent
It is indeed difficult to find a flaw in this Rao glance.
Rao glances at the two good buddies, Men Xuejun and Zhao Haifeng, even if they know more than Sun Hongfa and Miao Jingui, they will deliberately hide it.
It doesn't make much sense to ask them again.
When Zhao Zimeng, Ling Hu Yunfei and Xiang Daimo rode to Qiankun Hall, they saw at a glance the jeep parked diagonally across the road in the bathhouse, and Xiao Luhan was using this car.
When the three of them parked their bicycles and were about to walk into the bathhouse, Xiao Luhan walked out of it: "Two captains, you guys are coming so fast!" ”
Zhao Zimeng saw Xiao Luhan's tired look, and blamed himself a little in his heart: "Luhan, it's hard work, I should send you another person." ”
"Captain, don't ......, I'm doing it alone!"
"I've been to the bathhouses in the east of the city, south of the city, north of the city, and in the middle of the city, and now there are only eleven left in the west of the city."
"I've already asked, most of the bathhouses in the city close at ten o'clock, and now there are more than three hours, which is enough." Xiao Luhan looked at his watch, the time was seven o'clock.
Xiao Luhan and his father Xiao Changsong have a temperament, as long as they have a task, they will not give up if they don't complete it.
Because of Xiao Changsong's health, Zhao Zimeng is particularly concerned about Xiao Luhan in his usual work: "Luhan, let's find a place to eat first, the three of us are hungry." ”
Zhao Zimeng guessed that Xiao Luhan's meal must have not been eaten, he ran so many places in one day, and he couldn't run for another person, so he deliberately said that he was hungry, so that he could take Xiao Luhan to eat and let him take a breath.
Zhao Zimeng said as he looked around, trying to see if there were any restaurants — or noodle restaurants — nearby.
"Team Zhao, wait a minute, I'll ask the ticket seller of the bathhouse." Xiao Luhan trotted all the way to the ticket office.
The conductor pointed to the east: "You go ahead, there are two noodle restaurants on the right." ”
The four of them walked in the direction pointed by the conductor, walked more than a hundred steps, and sure enough, they saw a beef noodle restaurant, and before they entered, a fragrance came to their faces.
Zhao Zimeng walked straight into the noodle restaurant. I walked to the cash register and asked for four bowls of beef noodles.
Linghu Yunfei found a table, and the four of them sat down.
Zhao Zimeng saw that Xiao Luhan's lips were dry, cracked, and peeling, and his back was a little hunched.
As soon as the noodles came up, Xiao Luhan devoured them, and it didn't take long for him to pull a large bowl of beef noodles into his stomach.
"Lu Han, do you want another bowl?" Zhao Zimeng said.
"Captain, no need, I'm a little tired of this big bowl of noodles."
After a bowl of noodles, Xiao Luhan's waist was straight.
Back on the road at the entrance of Qiankun Hall, Xiao Luhan took out two ropes from the trunk of the car and fixed the bicycles of Zhao Zimeng, Ling Hu Yunfei and Xiang Daimo on the back of the jeep.
It's going to be a lot faster to drive.
At about half past seven, the car stopped in front of the gate of "Mengrong Hall", the main street where this bathhouse is located is the most prosperous downtown area in Xicheng District.
"Mengeitang" is the highest-grade and highest-priced bathhouse in Xicheng District - and even in Jingxi City, and it is also the oldest bathhouse in Jingxi City.
In the lobby of the bathhouse, there is still a huge plaque that reads, "Centennial Dream Eido, the beginning is Zeenxiang".
"Mengeido" has two halls. Customers in Hall 1 and Hall 2 take a bath in the chapel, and Hall 3 bathes in the lobby.
"Mengrongtang" not only does the business of ordinary people, but also does the business of the rich, the first hall and the second hall are ten yuan and eight yuan respectively, while the third hall is only two yuan.
Rooms 1 and 2 have wooden loungers, bath towels, and tea service.
Hall 3 has only boxes and stools, boxes are for storing clothes, and stools are for customers to put on and take off clothes.
In addition to bathing, there is also back rubbing in Hall 3.
In addition to bathing, Hall 1 and Hall 2 also have a number of services such as back rubbing, back beating, pedicure, massage, cupping and so on.
Zhao Zimeng took out his documents from his pocket and put the whole thing into the ticket window.
The conductor was a young man about thirty years old, and after looking at his documents, he opened the door and walked out of the ticket office: "Excuse me, what is the matter with you?" ”
"Bring your person in charge out, we have something to look for him." Zhao Zimeng said.
"Wait a minute." The young man lifted a curtain next to him, put his head into the curtain, and said loudly, "Xiaohu, call Director Mao, someone is looking for him." ”
At this time, there were already several people standing in front of the ticket window waiting to buy tickets.
The young man walked into the ticket booth and continued to sell tickets.
Immediately afterwards, a very high voice came from inside the curtain: "Director Mao, Xiao Chai called you, someone is looking for you." ”
There was a constant noise inside the curtain, and the sound of speech was not loud.
After a while, a man in his fifties walked out in a set of pajamas and walked up to the three people: "You are looking for me?" ”
Zhao Zimeng stepped forward and took out his documents to show the man, who invited them aside.
"Hello, we want to find two people," Zhao Zimeng said and took out the portraits of No. 1 and No. 2 from his bag, "Look at these two people, have you seen them?" ”
Director Mao leaned over and took a look: "I haven't seen it, we are here and there, I can let a few running masters take a look, maybe some of them have seen it." ”
"Okay, thank you for your cooperation, this person has a habit of pedicures." Zhao Zimeng pointed to the portrait of No. 1.
"We have pedicure masters here, all of whom are senior technicians we invited from Yanzhou, and their skills are first-class. Well, follow me to Hall 1 first. ”
Director Mao led the four people into the nearest hall No. 1.
The No. 1 hall is very spacious, with at least 50 seats, all of which are reclining chairs made of old craftsmanship and old materials, which are simple and chic.
"Director Mao, how many running masters and pedicure workers are there in this hall?"
"There are three runners and two pedicures."
"Xiao Lizi, a few of you come over and invite the two pedicure masters over as well." Director Mao raised his hand and greeted a young man.
"Come on, here's it." The lad responded.
