On the outskirts of the city, where the concrete has not yet spread, large trees are like tall guards guarding the translucent greenhouses standing in the dead grass. From a distance, these greenhouses look like giant cicada chrysalis crawling on the ground, dormant in winter, quietly waiting for spring to come.

Several uniformed policemen on the side of the road scanned the passing vehicles and pedestrians with vigilant eyes, and immediately greeted Lao Yang's car, and one of the policemen led everyone through the woods into the flowerbed area.

There is a section of the fence in the flower garden area that has collapsed and has not yet been repaired. A white van was parked just outside the wall, and several police officers and members of the scientific research team were collecting evidence.

Lao Yang greeted everyone and asked, "What did you find?" ”

"There were a few small traces of blood in the car, and judging by the tire marks and the newness of the car outside the car, at least two cars were parked here last night." A policeman replied quickly.

"Are there any finds in these greenhouses?" Lao Yang then asked.

"We are conducting a carpet search of this flower garden and have not found it yet."

"What about the owner of the garden?"

A tall man in his fifties with a rough face stretched out his hand wearing work gloves and walked out: "Comrade policeman, my name is Gao Fugui, I work here, and the boss of our flower garden is not usually here. A few days ago, the family went on vacation abroad and will not be back until next month. ”

Zi Shumo looked at the tall man, the wrinkles on his face could kill mosquitoes with a smile, his face was dark and a little red, and he looked like a person who had been working outdoors for a long time. A tattered cotton jacket was tied with a rubber apron stained with mud, and a pair of knee-length black rubber boots at his feet, gloves were already showing signs of damage, and they were also stained with various colors of mud. He has a simple smile and looks like an honest man.

Gao Fugui glanced around everyone with a smile, and when his eyes swept over Zi Shumo, he showed a look of doubt.

Zi Shumo smiled at him, and sniffled as he approached him, and a smell of fertilizer and earthy scent came to his face, mixed with an imperceptible aroma. But this aroma is not bluegrass, but more like the scent of several floral and fruity fragrances in harmony. And the smell of this perfume Zi Shumo has an impression, it is a perfume used by Tu Xiuwen.

Lao Yang noticed the change in Zishumo's expression, and asked quietly, "Do you have anything to ask?" ”

Zi Shumo nodded, stepped forward and asked, "Brother Gao, may I ask, do you only grow bluegrass here?" ”

"Yes! Don't you see that our park is called Orchid Garden? Gao Fugui smiled honestly.

"Do you live in this yard?"

"Of course! Somebody has to watch here! ”

"I don't think you have surveillance here?"

"Hehe, that monitoring is also used to scare people, it's useless at all. Moreover, these flowers are also squeamish, and someone always has to take care of them, so I stay here for a long time. ”

"Are you the only one? No one else? ”

"Yes, there are, but not for the past few days."

Zi Shumo thought for a while, nodded, and asked again, "Did you notice anything strange last night?" ”

Gao Fugui was annoyed by Zi Shumo's inexplicable questions, and the expression on his face became unfriendly, but he still patiently replied: "There is nothing strange. ”

Zi Shumo touched his neck, thought about it and said, "That is to say, from last night to now, you have stayed alone in this orchid garden, and nothing unusual has happened?" ”

"Hmmm! Yes! That's it! Gao Fugui replied.

"Well, if everything is as you say, then can you tell me why you have the smell of the victim's perfume on you?" Zi Shumo's eyes were dark, and he stared at Gao Fugui with a gloomy face.

Gao Fugui only felt a chill in his vest, shivered unconsciously, and said with a flustered expression: "What? What perfume smells? Don't talk nonsense, I can't smell it! ”

Xiao Wang laughed and said, "This uncle, this guy's nose is smarter than a dog!" If he says you smell of perfume, you must! ”

Lao Yang also fanned the flames on the side, and said in a stern tone: "You must know that if you don't report it, you will hinder the police from solving the case, and your crime will not be small!" ”

The corners of Gao Fugui's mouth twitched, and his tall figure suddenly paused a lot, and he stammered: "Victim? What victims!? No, I really don't know! Ah, if, you mean, this......" Gao Fugui nervously took off his gloves, touched his body for a while, and then took out a necklace from one of his pockets and handed it to everyone.

"This is Wenwen's necklace!" Lei Qiang snatched the necklace, grabbed Gao Fugui's collar with one hand, and shouted with bloodshot eyes and fierce eyes: "Say!" Where did you hide Wenwen!? Say it! ”

Gao Fugui has lived for more than 50 years, although he has encountered a lot of things, but it is the first time that he has been forced to be questioned by the police like this, let alone cases involving kidnapping and murder, and he has long been scared to the point of weakness. Lao Yang saw his fear, stepped forward to free him from Lei Qiang's clutches, gently dusted his clothes with the back of his hand, and said slowly:

"I advise you to tell the truth quickly, or you'll have to take the blame. Kidnapping and murder are punishable by death in our country. Of course, if you confess your sins well, maybe we can help you intercede. ”

"I, I, I really didn't do anything unreasonable! This, this necklace, yes, yes, I picked it up by the side of that car. I, I, I look very beautiful, and I thought, go home for the New Year and give it to my daughter-in-law. I didn't think this had anything to do with a murder case! I swear, I really didn't! Comrade policeman, don't arrest me! I'm telling the truth! Gao Fugui was so frightened that his legs were weak, and he almost knelt on the ground with weak legs.

Lao Yang grabbed his clothes and asked with a smile, "Are you sure that's all there is to it?" Is there anything else that hasn't been said? ”

"It's gone! Gone! It's gone! It was a cold day, I went to bed early, and I heard the sound of cars at night, but it was not surprising that there were cars around, so I didn't care! What I said is true! Gao Fugui said with a crying voice.

"Okay, okay, don't hide anything from the police in the future, you know!? If you find something abnormal, call the police immediately, understand? Lao Yang said and took out a business card and stuffed it into Gao Fuguidi's hand: "If you think of something again, call me, remember, if you don't report it, the sin is unforgivable!" ”

"Yes, yes, yes! I remembered! Gao Fugui held Lao Yang's business card as if he was holding a holy decree, and responded in a stack.

Zi Shumo stretched his neck and looked at the necklace on Lei Qiang's hand, and couldn't help frowning.
