Chapter 182: Clues
Xia Ying knew that he must be uncomfortable, even angry, but angry anger was temporary.
She is determined to draw a line with Lu Xiaoan, and she doesn't even need to be a friend. This is not a temporary idea, but the result of careful consideration.
The other day, I was too busy and things were too chaotic to think about this.
Lu Xiaoan didn't speak for a while, and Xia Ying said apologetically, "I'm sorry." ”
Hehe.
Lu Xiaoan laughed at himself: "You didn't feel sorry for me, you just didn't love me, you were not wrong." "It's him who is wrong, he has always been bent on going his own way. She didn't agree to the relationship between the two in the first place, and she didn't even take advantage of it. Their relationship was always clear.
"Xiao An, I'm really sorry, I'm sorry, you're suitable for a better girl, that person is not me. You go back to Haishi first to calm down, let's not meet. ”
Her attitude was resolute, and there seemed to be no room for change.
Lu Xiaoan knew that he couldn't influence her attitude, and after a moment of sorting out his emotions, he still said as if nothing had happened: "Today we will talk about this first, you are not sober now, when you are sober, we will talk about it tomorrow, I don't want you to make any decisions in an impulsive situation." ”
He left the room without saying a word.
Xia Ying touched her forehead, her face irritable, restless, and at a loss.
She wanted to stop Lu Xiaoan, but she had already said something dead, but she was bounced back by him again.
After a long time, even Xiao An knows her indecisive nature, and she is the most prone to hesitation, whether she is pinched or not.
The most unspeakable thing is that she actually had a shameful dream on the night she met Lu Shijing, and the male protagonist in the dream turned out to be Lu Xiaoan's second uncle. It is said that dreams are the continuation of people's mental activities during the day, and they think about it day and night, so she subconsciously thinks about Lu Shijing, a man who is so strict with her and can't look down on her.
It's terrible to think about it! She tried hard to control herself from thinking too much, but she still couldn't suppress this subconscious thought, and she felt more and more that she couldn't face Xiao An.
She knew that Xiao An liked her, and she actually had such evil thoughts about his own uncle, so she naturally had no face to face it. How to put it, she is not really interested in Lu Shijing, and she doesn't want to develop any relationship with him.
So the best thing to do is to stay away and forget, otherwise it will only embarrass her, and she doesn't want to show her dark side.
……
Lu Xiaoan just came out of the hotel, how could he leave City B. His expression was very serious and cold, and the indifference he exuded was the same as Lu Shijing's, but he himself did not notice this change.
Xia Ying would never give up opening a store for this reason, so suddenly, there must be other reasons.
It's the second brother!
Lu Xiaoan's eyes darkened, Lu Shijing didn't like Xia Ying, there was an omen from that day, he didn't live in the Lu family's old mansion the next day, so he didn't know the other party's specific thoughts. But Lu Shijing has always been a man of action, and he has to control everything absolutely, if he controls all this in Haishi, it is very likely.
The more Lu Xiaoan thought about it, the more he felt that it was the truth, and suddenly, in the window after leaving the hotel, he saw a sneaky figure following him. Seeing that his footsteps stopped, the other party also stopped, with a very ordinary face, and pretended to be looking at the scenery, thinking that he hadn't noticed.
A cold smile appeared on Lu Xiaoan's lips, and then he slowed down, as if he was strolling in the courtyard, and his mood suddenly improved.
Since someone likes acting, he doesn't mind playing with each other.
Lu Xiaoan's eyes became gloomy.
……
Xia Ying naturally didn't think about when to leave, but it was just a delaying tactic for Lu Xiaoan. In the early hours of the morning, the doorbell rang non-stop, waking her up from her sleep, which made her extremely irritable with poor sleep quality, and she walked into the cat's eye hole to see that it was a person wearing a cleaning suit, pushing a cleaning cart.
She opened the door, grabbed a handful of her hair and said, "No need to do hygiene." ”
Just as she closed the door, the other party raised his head to block the gap, she was surprised for a moment, and before she could see the other party's face clearly, a strange smell similar to the mixture of disinfectant and alcohol plunged into her nose.
Then her eyes went dark, and the picture seemed to press the shutdown button, and she didn't feel any more.
The cleaner saw her fall softly, and immediately stepped forward to help her, he cautiously checked back and forth, but never raised his head, even the surveillance could not capture his face.
He entered the room with the cleaning cart one after another, and about ten minutes later, he came out with the cleaning cart. The cleaner walked straight through the hallway, without knocking on any room doors, and the destination was the working elevator in front.
A handsome, tall young boy crossed hands with him, and the cleaner was hit by the young boy, staggering, and almost falling to the ground.
"I'm sorry." The young boy was Lu Xiaoan, Lu Xiaoan apologized casually, and was ready to help the other party.
The cleaner immediately stood firm and hurriedly grabbed his cleaning car, avoiding Lu Xiaoan's hand.
Without saying anything, he hurried into the elevator.
Lu Xiaoan glanced thoughtfully at the cleaning car and the man, and the deep meaning in his eyes was even stronger.
Then he walked to the door, rang the doorbell for a while and no one answered, so he found the front desk to open the door, but it was empty, and Xia Ying was gone.
The luggage inside was packed clean, as if the person had gone.
Lu Xiaoan asked, "Did Miss Xia check out?" ”
The front desk called the manager, and the check-out record was checked, and there was a call to the front desk registration office in the morning, and the guests of 1105 had already checked out of the room and did not renew the room.
This hotel does not require a deposit, and Xia Ying paid more than a dozen yuan more when she checked in, and she didn't take it away.
Lu Xiaoan insisted on checking the corridor surveillance, but when he called it up, Xia Ying hadn't gone out since she entered the room last night. I opened the door once this morning, and the person disappeared into thin air, which is unbelievable.
"Call the police."
I thought that Miss Xia's friend would be unusually angry and excited, but who would have thought that Lu Xiaoan would be unusually calm and have a sense of calmness different from his age.
The manager was secretly surprised, and after doing so, the police intervened in the investigation and dealt with it, and directly called up the photo of the cleaner, Lu Xiaoan and the criminal investigators had similar ideas, the problem was the cleaner, but the cleaner in the video was like a sudden appearance, and there was no such person in the hotel.
After such a toss, half a day has passed back and forth. Originally, it would have been 24 hours since he disappeared to file a case, but this time the situation was special, so the police sent a lot of police force.
However, clues soon appeared, and the police roughly locked down the man's identity and characteristics, and immediately launched a search.
Lu Xiaoan is a family friend of the victim, so naturally he has to follow up on the progress.
The suspect is a person with a criminal record, who was only released from prison this year, he didn't know Xia Ying, and sneakily stepped on the hotel in advance, and then stole the cleaner's clothes and pretended to be a cleaner to commit a crime. However, the police deduced that most of the suspects were instructed by others, and there was no possibility of extortion or random crimes.
The police asked Lu Xiaoan to provide clues, such as whether the victim had a grudge with someone and what suspects could be suspected. Lu Xiaoan mentioned Wang Yang's name and asked the police to investigate.
However, Lu Shijing really wanted to tell Wang Yang something, and Wang Yang didn't have to come to City B in person, just call and order.
Lu Xiaoan followed a criminal policeman around the street until the evening, and finally got the news and locked the approximate location of the suspect, because the wanted photos were posted, and there were witnesses who provided clues. The police are still more afraid of tearing up the ticket, so they don't dare to make too much fanfare, and try to appease the mainstay, and most of the content in the wanted notice is to persuade the suspect to take the initiative to surrender and release, and the family will not pursue his responsibility.
Of course, a discerning person knows that this is a fart, what is the use of not pursuing this kind of case, the law is unsympathetic.
Originally, the influence of this case was not so great, but it seemed that someone was fueling the flames behind it, a little bit of wind and grass, the streets and alleys were spreading and discussing the case, and casually passed by the door of a supermarket, and heard the sound of conversation. Lu Xiaoan faintly had a bad feeling, the situation was developing in a direction beyond expectations, the reward amount for collecting clues was within a reasonable range, why did it cause such a big turmoil, sure enough, the progress of science and technology network communication has reached a stage, people's privacy has been completely exposed under the eyes of the public, and there is no so-called privacy.
After visiting the streets for seven or eight hours in a row, such a high-intensity operation, although Lu Xiaoan struggled, he did not drop the chain at all, and the criminal police couldn't help but say: "Mr. Lu, in fact, you can wait for news in our police force or go back, I know you are very worried about your friend, but our work intensity is too great, and you are an ordinary person who can't bear ......it."
Lu Xiaoan said bluntly: "Comrade policeman is probably afraid that I will pull you back." ”
The criminal policeman touched his nose, and talking to a smart person was simple and refreshing, and he was thorough at all, but this young man was too confessed, and it seemed that he was a little rude.
Lu Xiaoan said understandingly: "It's okay, I'll go back first, if there is any news of my girlfriend, please notify me immediately." ”
After Lu Xiaoan broke up with the police, he walked to a corner, took out his mobile phone, and after some operation, a map appeared, which was a GPS positioning system, and there was a red dot on it that kept moving, indicating the location of the target.
The familiar streets around him were exactly where he was.
He adjusted the picture, plugged in the headphones, and ran forward quickly according to the positioning prompts in his mobile phone.
……
In an old neighborhood less than three kilometers away from Lu Xiao'an, the mottled and dark walls, dirty cement floors, and the smell of instant noodles, fast food, and mixed smoke are everywhere.
Xia Ying woke up faintly, almost a spirit, and realized the terrible situation she was in.
By the way, it's the cleaner.
He got himself.
What the hell is he going to do?
She struggled up, and found that she didn't feel any restraint on her body, just soft, with little strength, and she didn't know what the man had given her to eat and drink when she was unconscious, and she felt a foul smell of medicine in her mouth.
