Chapter Twenty-Three: Doubts
"The only clue is broken again."
"Wait." Zhang Yi seemed to think of something, he turned back from the elevator entrance, and there was an unlit cigarette between his fingers: "Why did the murderer just cripple Xia Luoqing, instead of killing her directly?" There's definitely something wrong with that. After speaking, he walked towards Tang Yunting. What do you think of this case? ”
Although Tang Yunting used to be a police officer, he didn't have a good impression of the police since that incident. Seeing Zhang Yi ask him, he looked absent-minded: "It's what you see on the surface, as you think, the murderer who killed Liang Fang in the first place is not the same person at all as the murderer of this kidnapping." ”
Zhang Yi knew Tang Yunting's dissatisfaction with the police, and he also saw the impatience on his face. But the case was serious, he ignored Tang Yunting's emotions and put it bluntly: "I feel like it's like a game, we are all toyed with." ”
"You've been toyed with." Tang Yunting said coldly.
"Meow Meow said that she was taken upstairs by the murderer last night, so the murderer didn't kill her, just crippled Xia Luoqing, don't you think it's like playing?"
"Do you think he must kill everyone he comes into contact with?"
"Yes, that's right." Zhang Yi was very sure, he turned his head to look at the frightened meow on the side, and Tang Yunting also followed his line of sight.
Meowth crossed her arms in both hands, and her face became more and more pale. Seeing that the two policemen were looking at her, she lowered her head in fear and bit her lip uneasily.
Because the weather was too cold, Meow Meow deliberately wore a warm dress when she went out last night. In addition, her newly bought Niko coat is very thick, so the murderer didn't knock her out at all last night.
The reason why she pretended to be unconscious was because she was afraid that the murderer would not be good for her. When the murderer committed the crime, although she closed her eyes tightly, she heard the sound of the knife cutting the flesh and skin of people very clearly.
Now that I think about it, it's still very cold.
And Tang Yunting also saw that something was wrong with Meow Meow.
From six o'clock in the morning until twelve o'clock in the afternoon, the police force dispersed, and after Tang Yunting returned to the hotel, he called Lu Yuanhao and asked him to take Meow Meow to his room.
Lu Yuanhao was with Ding Xiao, and when he received a call from Tang Yunting, he wanted to take Ding Xiao with him. But Tang Yunting seemed to have guessed, so he told Lu Yuanhao to come alone.
So Lu Yuanhao had no choice but to send Ding Xiao back to her house, and then drove to the hotel. As soon as he arrived at the hotel, he went to the room where Tang Yunting was, and the first thing he saw when he opened the door was Meow Meow, who was sitting on the sofa at a loss.
In Tang Yunting's room, there were just him, Lan, and Meow Meow. But looking at the atmosphere, Lu Yuanhao felt that something was wrong: "What's the matter?" After all, Meow Meow was the one who had been with him for several years, so he subconsciously walked to Meow Meow and sat down.
Tang Yunting sat on the wooden chair in front of the desk with Erlang's legs crossed, and there was a cup of steaming coffee on the desk. "Ask her what happened last night."
Lu Yuanhao's brick looked at Meow. Meowth kept her head down, she wouldn't have done anything before, unless she had done something weak-hearted.
Seeing that Meow Meow didn't speak for a long time, Tang Yunting put down his left leg from his right leg, got up and walked to the sofa opposite Meow Meow and sat down. After sitting down, he gave Lan a look, and Lan knowingly helped him bring the coffee to the coffee table.
Tang Yunting didn't ink anymore, and after taking a sip of coffee, he raised his eyes and stared at Meow Meow. "There's no warning here, tell me, what did you see last night?" Before Meow Meow spoke, Tang Yunting added: "To be honest." ”
"I ......" Meow Meow knows Tang Yunting's ability, and also knows that he only has a temporary cooperative relationship with the police, and he still has some resistance to the police. simply stopped hiding it: "I wasn't knocked unconscious last night, and I heard the process of the murderer maiming Xia Luoqing in the room." After finishing speaking, she took a deep breath and raised her head to look at Tang Yunting. I didn't stop it, because I knew that I couldn't beat the murderer, and if I resisted, the end might be worse than Xia Luoqing. ”
Tang Yunting spread his hands: "Say no sooner and it's over, you don't have to ask Young Master Lu to come before you can speak." ”
"The murderer was wearing a mask the whole time, and the light in the ward was pale blue and very weak, so I couldn't see his face."
"And what was his dress, his hairstyle, his voice, and his hands when he held you hostage, and when he touched you?"
Meowth frowned and thought back. "Ordinary black down jacket, no hat, very thick, as soon as you touch the material, you know that it is made in the wholesale market. He wears a cap, but there is still a bit of hair on his ears. The hair should be a little long, at least certainly not an inch. Sound...... Slightly hoarse, thick, like a piece of phlegm stuck in the throat. In terms of hands, he wore white gloves the whole time, the kind of gloves that only be worn when moving bricks on the construction site. ”
After Meow Meow finished speaking, Tang Yunting raised his hand and touched his chin, thinking that the murderer was quite tightly wrapped. Judging from the scene, it should not be the first time he has committed a crime. Because the modus operandi of the crime is very skillful, and he is not in a hurry when committing the crime, and his mind is calm and calm. As for what Zhang Yi said, why didn't he kill Xia Luoqing but maim her, what should he be planning, so what is it?
Tang Yunting thought back to the question, how did the murderer know that Xia Luoqing was not dead? It is also known that she is in the specific ward.
The only people who knew Xia Luoqing were the few people who were present, including Ding Xiao and Ning Bai, as well as police and hospital workers. The nurses in the hospital were all very broken, but they were also discussing this matter with each other in the hospital.
No, just in case, Tang Yunting decided to go to the hospital in person to interrogate the nurses with broken mouths one by one.
Lan followed, and Lu Yuanhao and Meow Meow left Tang Yunting's room.
Meow Meow was frightened a lot last night, and Lu Yuanhao was afraid that something would happen to her, so he booked a ticket for her and asked her to go back to Nancheng in the evening.
Meow Meow said that she didn't want to go back, and she was also worried that Lu Yuanhao would have an accident here. Moreover, the relationship between Ding Xiao and Lu Yuanhao looks unusual, and she doesn't want Ding Xiao to take her place in the future because of this incident.
That's it, there is no way to do this. Onohai's money was still paid, and on the night of Xia Luoqing's accident, Onuohai, who got the money, flew back to the United States.
Ding Xiao continued to work, and now she can only hope for a miracle.
She occasionally called her family, and in addition to her usual concerns, the most she said was that it was almost time for Ding Zhong to be found.
Jin Lizi, who lives next door to Ding Xiao, hasn't been out for several days, he hides at home and pays attention to the news of Fancheng TV, eating the food he hoarded a few days ago.
After Jin Lizi attacked Xia Luoqing, he called He Yong, He Yong was worried that Jin Lizi would be arrested, and planned to let Jin Lizi come back first. Ding Xiao's death was put aside for the time being.
Jin Lizi said that he can't leave at all now, the police are staring at the checkpoint to death, and he is now struggling to even go downstairs to eat. "Wait and see, I'll withdraw as soon as the wind passes."
"Knock knock—"
There was a knock at the door, and Jin Lizi's heart tightened, and she quickly got up and walked to the door. When he walked to the door and looked out through the cat's eye on the door, he realized that it was not his door that he was knocking on at all.
It was the woman I saw last time in the stairway. Today she wears a white hip-wrapping skirt, black stockings, and a lilac knit sweater. This figure is really good, and the face is also beautiful......
Attracted by Yin Tian, Jin Lizi forgot what she was still worried about just now.
I saw Ding Xiao open the door, Yin Tian stepped into the door with his bag, and his mouth was still babbling: "Why did it take so long to open the door, is it Lu Yuanhao hiding in the house?" ”
"What are you talking nonsense? Why are you free to come to me today? ”
Ding Xiao hasn't woken up yet, and has been investigating various suspense cases after getting off work last night. First, for today's live broadcast, and second, I still want to see if there is anything similar to Ding Deng's disappearance.
"You know, I have a phone call from Lu Yuanhao, but I have never dared to call. Isn't he close to you? I want you to help me make an appointment with him......" Yin Tian is embarrassed, but she hasn't seen Lu Yuanhao for so many days, so she really wants to.
Ding Xiao pouted, it's all this time, how can she be in the mood to help Yin Tian make an appointment with Lu Yuanhao. And Lu Yuanhao hasn't looked for her much in the past few days, it seems to be quite busy.
Xu saw Ding Xiao's embarrassment, and Yin Tian was not embarrassed by her. "Going out for lunch in a while? I'm in for a treat. ”
"Okay."
Yin Tian smiled, got up and dragged Ding Xiao to her room to help her find clothes to change into. After changing clothes and washing, it was exactly twelve o'clock, and the two went out to find a Western restaurant.
Yin Tian plucked up the courage to call Lu Yuanhao, but it was Meow Meow who picked up the phone. Meow Meow heard that it was a woman who called, and said in a cold tone, "Is there something wrong?" ”
"That...... I'm looking for a long way. Yin Tian didn't expect that it was a woman who answered the phone, and listening to this woman's voice was so cold. Could it be Lu Yuanhao's girlfriend? Yin Tian began to make up for it.
"He's busy, just tell me something."
"I want to treat him to dinner."
"He's not available." After saying that, Meow Meow hung up directly, and as soon as she hung up the phone, Lu Yuanhao walked out of Tang Yunting's room, and he saw Meow Meow holding his mobile phone, and his eyebrows frowned slightly: "Have a phone?" ”
"An unfamiliar number called, saying he wanted to invite you to dinner." Meowth doesn't hide it either. Lu Yuanhao took his mobile phone and looked at the call log, the local number in Fancheng...... It's Yin Tian.
"Got it." Lu Yuanhao turned off the mobile phone screen and put it in his pocket, and walked to the elevator: "Go downstairs to eat." ”
Meow Meow hurriedly walked into the elevator, the two went downstairs to eat something casually, Lu Yuanhao said to Meow Meow that he was going back to Nancheng tonight.
"Is it okay to do it here?" Meow Meow subconsciously thought of Ding Xiao.
"There's Tang Yunting here, let him deal with it." After Lu Yuanhao finished speaking, he remembered one more thing, when he was looking for Tang Yunting, he said that he would find Ding Zhong within a month, and now half a month has passed.
"Shall I go back with you?" Meow Meow asked again.
"Together."
