Chapter 21: Finding Clues
"Live?" Ji Xing smiled: "Of course you can." With that, he packed his papers and prepared to go.
The detective coughed lightly and said, "It's getting late now, let's go back and rest first." I'll take you to the scene tomorrow. ”
When everyone heard this, they all looked down at their watches, they were surprised that it was so late, and then they got up and left their seats one after another, saying goodbye to the detective and Ji Xing and leaving. Seeing this, Zhang Yue and Lao Zhuang no longer had nostalgia, said hello to Ji Xing, and left.
Walking out of the police station, Zhang Yue and Lao Zhuang glanced at each other, as if they wanted to say something, but looking at each other's faces, both of them understood. After a while, the two got into a taxi and left, but instead of going back to the hotel, they went to another place.
In the car, Zhang Yue smiled: "You can't wait for tomorrow, right?" ”
Lao Zhuang said: "I'm a little curious, I still need to see it on the spot, it's useless to rely on Ji Xing alone." ”
Zhang Yue was noncommittal: "But it seems that we are not the only ones who have such thoughts!" As she spoke, Zhang Yue looked back, and a taxi followed them unhurriedly.
"Conan and Ran?" Lao Zhuang asked.
Zhang Yue pondered for a while and said, "You call them that, I will always make a play." But it's them. What to do? Do you want to shake it off? ”
Lao Zhuang shook his head: "There's no need. ”
So, Zhang Yue didn't pay attention to it anymore and continued to think about that strange case in her mind. After all, it was just a hasty discussion just now, and the clues obtained were very limited, but Zhang Yue still listed them one by one.
scuffle scenes that flash in front of surveillance cameras; monitoring blind spots; The Disappeared Murderer...... Zhang Yue thought about all kinds of possibilities, but no matter which one was lacking. "Sure enough, I'll have to see it live." Zhang Yue said secretly in her heart.
After a while, Zhang Yue and Lao Zhuang came to their destination, which was the place where the murder occurred. Standing downstairs and looking up, the height of more than 20 floors is still very amazing. Not long after the two got out of the car, another car followed, and the so-called Conan and Xiaolan got out of the car.
Zhang Yue and Lao Zhuang glanced at them, then withdrew their gaze and walked straight upstairs.
"Wait......"
When they heard this, they stopped, and looked indifferently at the man who stopped them. Conan is still wearing a mask and refuses to show his true face, but he can see that the exposed eyes are very clear, and because they are clear, he can see joy and sorrow at a glance.
Zhang Yue asked, "Something?" ”
"It's nothing, I'm a little interested in you. I want to get to know, my name is Bai Meng, and she is my girlfriend Mengying. Bai Meng smiled and stretched out his hand and said.
Zhang Yue stretched out her hand and shook Bai Meng, and said, "My name is Zhang Yue, he is my friend Zhuang Zechan, it's a pleasure to meet you." ”
Bai Meng smiled: "Are you going to the scene?" If you don't mind, how about your peers? Or are you afraid of losing the game and don't want to? If we really don't want to, we can just leave. It's good for you to be happy. ”
Zhang Yue was a little speechless in her heart for this little boy's self-talking attitude, but she still couldn't see any expression on her face, and still kept a smile: "It doesn't matter, you can come together if you want to see it." ”
"Oh? I admire your guts, it seems that I didn't look away. Mengying, let's go. Bai Meng put his arm around Mengying's waist, held his head high, and walked towards the building.
Zhang Yue suddenly missed the time when she went out on a mission with Lao Hei. If Lao Hei is here, he believes that Lao Hei has countless ways to deal with this inexplicable hairy child. However, now he had to face it himself, and Lao Zhuang, who was standing beside him, had no intention of speaking at all.
Zhang Yue didn't care too much, followed behind with Lao Zhuang, and also walked into this building. The four of them took the elevator and went directly to the top floor, and after walking up a small staircase, they came to the roof where the tragedy occurred. On the rooftop, two policemen on duty were chatting and guarding the scene.
When the policeman on duty saw someone, he quickly became vigilant and shouted, "What are you doing?" It's been locked down here, hasn't it been notified? ”
Bai Meng stepped forward and said with a smile: "Hello, I'm Bai Meng, I want to come over to see the scene and find clues, is it okay?" ”
The two looked at each other, only to see a white flower in front of them, and their eyes were a little blurry. This white-clothed and white-faced dress, except for Bai Meng, it is difficult to find a second one. The two quickly recognized Bai Meng, and hurriedly bent down slightly respectfully, and said with a smile: "Of course you can." ”
Bai Meng turned to look at Zhang Yue and Lao Zhuang behind him, and said with a smile: "Please." ”
Lao Zhuang ignored him, but looked around, Zhang Yue smiled politely and thanked him.
There are no lights on the rooftop, and at night, it's dark. In this kind of environment, it is difficult to capture the picture clearly with an ordinary surveillance camera, let alone a camera whose lens has already been spent.
After watching the surveillance video for the first time, Zhang Yue and Lao Zhuang gave up this so-called important clue, so they came directly to the scene to look for clues. The four groped in the dark, looking for the scene of the crime. After a while, they found the scene that had been cordoned off by the police.
Zhang Yue looked up, saw the camera that Ji Xing said, and said: "This camera is set up a little strangely, obviously as long as you move it a little, you can monitor this area in place, and there will be no dead ends." ”
When Lao Zhuang heard this, he was also interested, and walked into some cameras to observe this camera carefully, and only retracted his gaze for a while. Seeing this, Zhang Yue asked, "What did you find?" Lao Zhuang frowned, shook his head, and did not speak.
Bai Meng and Mengying stood aside, not observing the scene, but kept looking at Zhang Yue and Lao Zhuang, and the naked gaze made Zhang Yue and Lao Zhuang goosebumps.
Zhang Yue said in a low voice: "Hurry up and see, let's go." ”
Lao Zhuang didn't speak, but silently quickened the speed of observation, he glanced around, and finally fixed his gaze on the two logs. Lao Zhuang squinted, trying to see clearly, but because the light was too dark, he couldn't see it carefully.
"Can I see the wood?" Lao Zhuang asked.
The policeman on duty did not stop him, waved his hand, and said, "Yes, but please don't mess with it." ”
After receiving permission, Lao Zhuang crossed the cordon, crouched cautiously to the side, almost pressed his face up, and looked at the wood carefully. The wood looks very ordinary, with different thicknesses, ranging from thick to fist-thick and thin to a finger and a half.
Next to the wood, there was also a bundle of hemp rope, which was scattered on the ground. Lao Zhuang leaned up, took a closer look, and then left a little dissatisfied. Zhang Yue looked at Lao Zhuang's calm face and asked, "How?" ”
Lao Zhuang didn't speak, but just gave Zhang Yue a look. Seeing this, Zhang Yue nodded slightly, then turned to the two policemen on duty and said, "Thank you for making it convenient for us, then we will be here first today." ”
Seeing that the two were leaving, Bai Meng also followed and said, "Two, do you mind going together?" On the way, we can also exchange clues that we have observed. ”
Zhang Yue waved her hand and said with a smile: "No, it's not early, goodbye." After speaking, he followed Lao Zhuang, who had already walked away, and hurriedly went downstairs.
Meng Ying took Bai Meng's arm and said, "They look weird. ”
Bai Meng smiled: "And it's very rude, if I didn't bring it, how could they come to the scene?" However, they are suitable to be the villains of this story. What do you think? ”
"I believe in you, just do it." Meng Ying left a faint kiss mark on Bai Meng's face and smiled.
When the two policemen on duty saw the pair of crooked ones in front of them, they silently stepped aside, embarrassed to disturb, so they could only watch them leave. And then continue to guard this bad place.
It was already late at night when they returned to the hotel, and after Zhang Yue and Lao Zhuang finished washing up, they were ready to rest. Two big men were lying in the same bed, but they couldn't sleep, and their minds were thinking about everything they had seen on the rooftop.
Zhang Yue asked, "Do you have any ideas?" ”
Lao Zhuang said: "Someone has moved the camera. ”
"Huh?"
"I looked at all the cameras, and according to the normal layout, that camera shouldn't leave a blind spot for monitoring. But the camera was off, although it was only a little, but it just left that dead end, cutting off our clues. And then there's that hemp rope and wood. Lao Zhuang rarely said such a long paragraph, and Zhang Yue naturally listened carefully, but for some reason, he always felt that he had not finished speaking.
"Huh? So what's wrong with hemp rope and wood? Zhang Yue asked. It was not Lao Zhuang's answer that responded to Zhang Yue, but Lao Zhuang's faint snort. Zhang Yue got up and looked at Lao Zhuang, who was sleeping peacefully, shook her head helplessly, and had no choice but to sleep.
The hour hand was slowly moving forward, and the clatter of the bell was like the sound of his footsteps, moving forward step by step, slowly but surely. The night was getting deeper and deeper, and Zhang Yue and Lao Zhuang also sank into their own sleep and slept peacefully.
A shadow came to their window with silent steps. It was a girl, pretty, but it felt a little blurry, as if she had come out of a dream.
The girl stretched out her hand and gently stroked Zhang Yue's face: "Let me see what you dreamed of?" ”
"Me? I dreamed of a woman who broke me down. She's so much cuter than you, though. Zhang Yue grabbed the girl's hand and said casually, a pair of black and white pupils looked at her calmly.
The girl was startled, and disappeared in a flash. Zhang Yue only felt that she seemed to be empty at that moment, as if everything that happened just now was just a dream. Zhang Yue looked at her hands, and then at Lao Zhuang, who was still asleep beside her, shrugged helplessly, and fell asleep deeply.
On a street corner, the girl was stumbling against the wall, with a red handprint on her right wrist emitting green smoke.
