4. Stalkers
"How? Did you receive any interesting applications today? Wei Renwu sipped tea, smoked a cigarette, sat leisurely on the sofa, looked at TV with his eyes, and muttered in his mouth.
Yue Ming carefully flipped through the homepage of his "Mingwu Detective Agency" website, and said disappointedly: "It's all some small cases of finding cats, dogs, and people, ah, when will the big case come!" ”
Wei Renwu took out his mobile phone and said, "Instead of waiting for the rabbit, it's better to take the initiative." ”
Wei Renwu dialed his mobile phone and said politely into the phone: "Hey, Captain Lin, have you encountered any difficult cases over there recently?" ”
"Yo, Great Detective Wei Renwu, you're still willing to give me a call."
"What a big detective is not a big detective, it's just a false name, but it's a wise and martial, beautiful and moving Captain Lin, is there any work that can let me participate in it recently, you know me, there is no case for a day, and I feel uncomfortable."
"The big detective's mouth is really sweet today, but how dare I work for you, you have set up your own detective agency now, you must be very busy."
"No, no, no, I didn't make that office, it was made by Xiao Yue, you know me, I'm not a detective, I still take Captain Lin as the leader, I just ask you to take me to participate in the tricky case."
"Hahaha, the great detective is really modest, but then again, the recent cases are all small cases of stealing chickens and dogs, and I don't need your cattle slaughtering knife."
"Oh, forget if you don't, but when Captain Lin encounters difficulties, please remember to call the little one."
"Don't worry, I will call you if there is something, I'm hanging, I'm still busy."
Doodoo ......
At this time, Wei Renwu was also disappointed.
"Hey, this seems to be good." Yue Ming said excitedly.
Wei Renwu put out the cigarette, rushed to Yue Ming, and said hurriedly: "What case?" ”
Yue Ming read slowly: "The applicant said that he seems to be being followed and monitored, and hopes to get our help." ”
Wei Renwu looked at the content on the web page, pouted and said, "It's not our help, it's your help." ”
"You don't like this case?"
"Did you see a picture of this person?" Wei Renwu pointed to the applicant's avatar on the screen and said.
"See, what's the problem?" Yue Ming wondered.
"Who do you think will be tracked and monitored by a dick like this?" Judging by the avatar, the applicant is an otaku with slightly longer hair and a sluggish spirit.
Yue Ming still didn't give up and said: "The world is unpredictable, what if he is really followed?" ”
Wei Renwu sat back boredly, lit another cigarette, and said, "One has no face, and the other has no money, so the ghost is willing to follow this kind of person." ”
"What if there really are ghosts? Wouldn't that be more fun? ”
Wei Renwu laughed and said: "Where is the ghost in this world, in short, I am not interested in this case at all, if you are interested, you can take it and try it, but don't ask my opinion." ”
"Try it, just try it." Yue Ming said unconvinced.
Later, Yue Ming contacted that person.
Almost an hour later, the man came to their home.
The applicant, wearing a thickened plaid shirt, had sunken eyes, misty-eyed eyes, high nervous tension, and slightly twitching lips.
Yue Ming had the heart to appease this person's emotions, and he said softly: "Don't be nervous, it's safe here, you tell me first, what is your name." ”
This man was able to relax a little, but he still didn't dare to look at Yue Ming squarely, he replied, "My name is Yang Yang, who are you?" ”
"My name is Yue Ming."
"I came to find Detective Wei Renwu, where is he?"
Wei Renwu was not in the living room.
Yue Ming said embarrassedly: "He's not at home, if you encounter any difficulties, it's okay to tell me, I'm a detective." ”
Yang Yang shook his head and said, "What I encountered is too bizarre, I need Mr. Wei's help." ”
Yue Ming didn't know how to answer his words, originally he wanted to solve this case independently, but he always wanted to find Wei Renwu, he forcibly suppressed his anger, took a deep breath, and said: "That's the case, Mr. Wei is not at home now, you first tell him about the difficulties you encountered, and when he comes back, I will tell him, do you think this is okay?" ”
Yang Yang thought for a moment, nodded and said, "Okay, then you have to listen to me patiently." ”
Yue Ming was listening, and he finally persuaded Yang Yang.
Yang Yang rubbed his palms against each other, and said cautiously: "That's right, I'm a programmer, and I don't go home until late every day, but every time I go home, I always feel that someone is following me." ”
"Why do you think so?" Yue Ming asked.
"It's just a feeling, I always feel like there's a pair of eyes looking at me all the time, looking at me when I'm working overtime, looking at me on the way home, and still looking at me when I get home, it's terrible, there's no privacy."
"In that case, it's just your feelings, maybe it's a hallucination caused by your tired work and nervous tension, because there is no substantial evidence that you are being followed." Yue Ming began to feel that Wei Renwu was right, and this case was not very interesting.
"No, no, no, there is evidence, such as some of my things, which have been touched inexplicably." Yang Yang hurriedly said.
Yue Ming's heart was shocked, and he immediately became interested, and he said, "You can tell me in detail." ”
Yang Yang swallowed his saliva and said: "For example, when I was working overtime, I poured a glass of boiling water, and then went to the toilet, and when I came back, the boiling water in the cup was less than half, and when I got off work, I took the elevator downstairs, and I was still on the eleventh floor, but suddenly I was on the first floor." Also, when I was at home, when I woke up in the morning, I found that the mouthwash cup had been used. These can be proven. ”
Yang Yang said very strangely, and Yue Ming felt a chill in his spine.
Yue Ming said slowly: "In this way, it seems necessary for us to track your situation on the spot." ”
"One more thing." Yang Yang said suddenly.
Yue Ming was puzzled: "What else is going on?" ”
"I think, I think..."
"What do you think?"
"I don't think the person who was spying on me was trying to hurt me."
"Why do you think so?"
"Because I feel like he's protecting me."
"Protecting you?"
"Actually, I'm an introvert, and I don't usually have much contact with others."
"I can see it."
"So in the company, I always offend people inexplicably, and then they always bully me." Speaking of this, Yang Yang silently lowered his head, and his strong inferiority complex was highlighted.
"And then?" Yue Ming wanted to comfort him, but now Yue Ming was more interested in the case.
"Once, I was abused by a few colleagues, and the next day, I found that they had a blue nose and swollen face, and they were still hiding from me, and I knew that person must have done it."
Yue Ming touched his chin and said with satisfaction: "It's a little interesting." ”
Yang Yang suddenly asked, "By the way, what do you call it?" You said that, but I forgot. ”
Yue Ming stood up, patted his chest, and said proudly: "It's okay, let me introduce myself again, my name is Yue Ming, and I am a detective." ”
"Detective?" Yang Yang suddenly realized, "Oh, I remembered you, you are Mr. Wei's assistant, I saw it on the news." ”
Yue Ming laughed and said: "It used to be an assistant, but now it's a cooperative relationship, cooperation, do you understand?" ”
Yang Yang nodded as if he didn't understand.
Yue Ming said again: "Please go back first, and when Mr. Wei comes back, I will tell him about your experience, and then we will study this case." ”
"Okay, I'll go home and wait for your news."
After sending Yang Yang away, Yue Ming took a deep breath and said, "Come out." ”
There was no one in the living room, who was he talking to? In fact, he was talking to Wei Renwu, who didn't go out at all, but hid in his room and eavesdropped.
Wei Renwu opened the door, walked into the living room, lit a cigarette, and lay down on the sofa.
Yue Ming asked, "What do you think?" ”
Wei Renwu smiled: "It's kind of interesting." ”
"And what do you think of this case?"
"First of all, this guy doesn't have a strong sense of anti-reconnaissance, I'm such a big living person hiding in the room, and I'm about to open the door to a small opening to observe, but he didn't find it."
The door to Wei Renwu's room was sliding, so it was difficult to detect it if he opened a small opening.
Yue Ming said, "Is there anything else?" ”
"Since the anti-reconnaissance awareness is not strong, he should not find out that someone is following and spying on him, which is very strange, and judging by his dress, he is a typical tech otaku, mentally lethargic, and often watches pornographic websites."
"And then, do you come up with anything?"
Wei Renwu took a deep puff of cigarette and said slowly: "I didn't sum up anything. ”
Yue Ming was puzzled: "Can't even you see the clues?" ”
"Just by saying a few words, you can't see anything. The amount of information in this case is not enough, and it is obvious that it is necessary to follow it up on the ground to determine something. ”
"Without further ado, let's go." Yue Ming said, and prepared to open the door.
"What's the hurry?" Wei Renwu was still lying on the sofa, motionless, "I'll talk about it when I've eaten." ”
Yue Ming hurriedly said, "But I'm not hungry yet." ”
Wei Renwu extinguished the cigarette and shouted, "But I'm hungry!" ”
Yue Ming said helplessly: "Okay then, I'll go cook first." ”
Wei Renwu said again: "Oh, by the way, there is one more thing you have to remember. ”
"What's the matter?"
"In the future, when you introduce yourself to others, don't keep talking about detectives, you are my assistant, you are not a detective yet."
"Why!" Yue Ming didn't like Wei Renwu to say this, he made a lot of determination to be a detective.
Wei Renwu replied contemptuously: "Because you are not qualified enough, you still need to learn a lot before you can be a detective." ”
