Chapter 17: Talking to the Murderer
Miao Ying's condition is slowly improving, but she still reads Ding Zhong from time to time.
Ding Wei called the company to ask for a long leave to explain the reason, and the unit approved. After all, it's understandable that something like this happened.
Ding Xiao went home after accompanying Miao Ying in the hospital for two hours, and she was going to go back to make a soup for Miao Ying and bring it in the evening.
New Year's Day has passed, and the New Year is not far away. Ding Xiao's leave is only one month, and after this month, even if she doesn't find Ding Zhong, she has to go back to work.
"It's been really cold this year, and I haven't seen the sun even a single time in the middle of this winter."
Ding Xiao walked to the door of the house with a bag of things, and was taking out the key to open the door when he heard this sentence in his ear. She tilted her head and saw the property coming out of the next room, as if still talking to the people in the room.
"Then I'll leave first if there's nothing to do, and I'll go to the second floor of Building D in the back to find something." As soon as the property finished speaking, the door of the next room slammed shut. The property touched his nose a little deflated, and whispered dissatisfiedly: "I just moved here, I kindly mentioned you a few words, you still don't appreciate it, I won't help you if there is anything wrong with household appliances in the future!" After speaking, he was about to turn around and leave, but saw Ding Xiao staring at him.
"Uncle Guan." Ding Xiao greeted politely.
Uncle Guan waved his hand and walked towards Ding Xiao. "Ding Xiao, is your mother getting better?"
Ding Xiao pursed his lower lip: "It's much better." ”
"Don't be too anxious, things will always get better." Uncle Guan comforted her, although he didn't believe it himself. "By the way, there's a new man next door to you. I think he's weird, and you'd better be careful when staying at home at night. ”
"Weird?" Ding Xiao immediately became vigilant, and the scenes of those crimes in the past appeared in her mind. "How tall is he?"
Uncle Guan scratched his head a little embarrassed, he really didn't pay attention just now. "It's about the same height as me...... A little fat, fatter than me. "Uncle Guan is only about 1.7 meters tall and weighs 14. The next-door neighbor is as tall as him and fatter than him......
Ding Xiao pursed his lips, remembering that the murderer he had seen before was tall, not thin, but not fat either.
Even if the weight can be reduced, the height is definitely not disguised.
"Got it, thank you, Uncle Guan."
"Okay then, I'll get busy."
After Uncle Guan left, Ding Xiao opened the door with the key and walked in, and as soon as he walked into the house and put down his things, Yin Tian's phone called.
Yin Tian wanted to ask Lu Yuanhao out for dinner, but he was embarrassed, so he wanted to call Ding Xiao together. But what happened in the past few days made Ding Xiao exhausted, so he politely refused. But Yin Tian was not happy, so after talking for a long time, Ding Xiao just didn't agree.
Yin Tian was very angry and asked her directly when she would be able to pay back the 10,000 yuan.
Ding Xiao was stunned, she didn't expect Yin Tian to turn her face because of such a trivial matter, she wasn't such a person before?
"Yin Tian, my mother is hospitalized." In desperation, Ding Xiao had no choice but to tell the truth. There was silence on the other end of the line for a while, "I know, but what does this have to do with the money you borrowed from me?" Isn't Lu Yuanhao, who always follows you, quite rich, let him help you pay it back. ”
"Yin Tian?" Ding Xiao was surprised. Although she hasn't been in contact with Yin Tian for a long time, she won't become so sour.
"Hung up." Yin Tian hung up the phone angrily. She regretted a little that what she had just said was too much, but when she thought that Ding Xiao knew that she liked Lu Yuanhao and was so close to him, she was furious in her heart. This feeling is like being poached by your best friend.
Ding Xiao held the phone and was silent for a minute after Yin Tian hung up the phone, and then went out with his bag again, ready to go to the bank card to withdraw money.
But she didn't even have a thousand dollars in her card.
Just when she was worried, Yin Tian's phone called again. She apologized to Ding Xiao, and bought some fruits and nutritional products to go to the hospital with Ding Xiao to visit Miao Ying.
Only after the stiffness did not dissolve in an instant. Yin Tian carried things to Ding Xiao's house, and when he went upstairs, he ran into Jin Lizi.
Jin Lizi is the neighbor who just moved next door to Ding Xiao, because he decided to help He Yong get rid of Ding Xiao.
"I'm sorry." Yin Tian said apologetically. Jin Lizi stopped walking down and looked at Yin Tian, he felt that the woman in front of him was very good-looking, and the clothes, satchels and jewelry on her body were all big names. "I'm new here, where do you live?" He asked directly.
Yin Tian took a step to the side to distance herself from him, although she knew that Jin Lizi asked this to promote the relationship between the neighbors, but it was too direct to make her feel uncomfortable.
And the golden pear is still very ugly, and the right side of his face has burn marks on the back of his face, which is crumpled and sticky.
"I don't live here." After speaking, Yin Tian walked up and no longer paid attention to the golden pear. Jin Lizi stood there and turned to look up, and evil thoughts began to grow in her heart.
He hadn't worked in a long time, and his hands were very itchy.
Listening to the clatter of Yin Tian's high heels walking with his ears, he found that the corridor Yin Tian went to was one floor with him. And there are only three households on the floor where he lives, one of which is Ding Xiao; One household is him; The other property said before that it was a man who lived there. But the man has already returned to his hometown, and he will not come until the New Year.
Just now she said that she doesn't live here, and looking at the things she is carrying in her hand, is it Ding Xiao's friend?
Jin Lizi smiled on her face. He turned around and walked upstairs with his hands in his pockets, and when he walked to the floor where he lived, he saw Yin Tian standing at the door of Ding Xiao's house with something in his hand.
Yin Tian also saw the golden pear who went upstairs, she looked away with some disgust, raised her hand and knocked on the door.
Ding Xiao hurriedly came out of the kitchen and opened the door, "I'm sorry, I didn't hear it in the stir-fry just now." ”
Yin Tian entered the door and put things in the corner, and after closing the door, he dragged Ding Xiao's arm to the side with an ugly face. She looked back at the door, and her voice was low: "Do you know the man who lives next to you?" ”
Ding Xiao shook his head suspiciously: "What's wrong?" ”
"I feel like he's so lewd, like a pervert."
Ding Xiao pouted, didn't the man who lived next door just move over? "Is he too ugly?" She remembered that Yin Tian always likes to judge people by their appearance.
"Ugly, ugly." At the thought of seeing his obscene eyes in the corridor, Yin Tian couldn't help but feel a chill.
"Alright, alright, I've got to go see the dishes." Saying that, Ding Xiao immediately walked into the kitchen. Yin Tian Nunu was still thinking about what Jin Lizi said just now, and the more she thought about it, the more she felt that Jin Lizi was very scary.
Forget it, it's useless to think about it, just don't want to.
After eating at Ding Xiao's house, the two lay on the bed and talked about Lu Yuanhao. Ding Xiao also realized that Yin Tian was angry on the phone before because of Lu Yuanhao.
But...... Now at this critical juncture, she can't refuse Lu Yuanhao's help.
"Bell bell bell ......"
The mobile phone on the bedtable rang, Ding Xiao immediately got up to look, and found that it was Ning Bai calling.
Ning Bai asked Ding Xiao if he had found someone to investigate secretly, and Ding Xiao said yes. Ning Bai said that he had been looking for Ding Zhong for the past few days, and finally had some clues. He asked Ding Xiao to wait for him at home, but Ding Xiao looked at the time and had to go to the hospital in a while.
So the two made an appointment to meet in the hospital.
And Yin Tian went to the hospital with Ding Xiao, and left after a while.
There are a lot of people in the hospital every day, and the ambulance is either transporting the patient or on the way to save people.
The two ambulances never stopped.
However, the greenery of the hospital is very good, and there is a long pavilion behind the inpatient department. The pavilion is full of vines, but in winter the vines only have protruding branches.
The artificially planted lawn was still green in winter, and Ning Bai stood in the corridor of the long pavilion waiting for Ding Xiao.
After a few days of not seeing each other, Ding Xiao found that Ning Bai had also lost a lot of weight, and a layer of stubble appeared on his face. The dark circles under my eyes are very heavy, and I should have not slept well for a long time.
"Ning Bai, what clues did you find?" Ding Xiao asked excitedly.
Ning Bai took out his mobile phone from his pocket and looked at Ding Xiao expressionlessly: "Ding Deng's mobile phone can be connected." ”
Stupefied.
Ding Xiao was stunned for a moment, and then took Ning Bai's mobile phone to dial Ding Zhong's number. The phone did go through, but no one spoke over there.
Ding Xiao's smile condensed on her face, and she raised her eyes to look at Ning Bai for some reason. Ning Bai took the mobile phone and hung up the phone, and said to Ding Xiao: "The person who answered the phone is the one who kidnapped Ding Deng." ”
"When will you be able to get through to Ding Deng?"
"Just this morning."
"After getting through the phone, is there still no one talking on the other side? What the hell is he trying to do? Is Ding Zhong still alive? Ding Xiao's mood at this time could not be described in words, she hurriedly flipped through her mobile phone and wanted to call the police, but Ning Bai stopped her. You're going to call the police again? What is the use of alarming? After so many days, did the police find someone?! Speaking of the back, Ning Bai's tone was a little angry, and it was not difficult to hear that he was deliberately suppressing the anger in his heart.
Ding Xiao understood.
"I've said a lot, but the other party doesn't hang up the phone and doesn't reply to me."
"I'll call on my phone and try it." After speaking, Ding Xiao dialed his mobile phone, and the phone was also connected after a while, but unlike just now, someone spoke over there.
"Sister."
It's the sound of Ding Bell! Ding Xiao and Ning Bai stared at each other with wide eyes, and Ding Xiao hurriedly spoke: "Ding Zhong, is it you Ding Deng?" You okay? Where is it? ”
"Sister......" Ding Zhong cried, and when she wanted to say something, the phone was taken away. Then a hoarse and dark male voice came from inside: "Did you hear that?" ”
"Who are you? What the hell do you want to do! ”
The man let out a low laugh, followed by unhurriedness: "What do I want to do?" Don't you know yet? ”
Ding Xiao frowned, and immediately had a plan in his heart: "I know, isn't your target me?" Because after all, I saw you kill with my own eyes. And, see it clearly. ”
Sure enough, the man's face turned gloomy.
"But I didn't tell the police that if you don't want to be caught, you'd better let Ding Zhong go. Otherwise......"
"Don't you dare, your sister is still in my hands. Otherwise, you would have called the police a long time ago, and would you still threaten me with this? "The murderer is not stupid.
