As we left the scene of the crime, I pushed open the door to the stairwell instead of going in the direction of the elevator, thinking about what I would do next if I was the murderer.

Lu Lingyun followed behind me, without disturbing my thinking, layer after layer, I walked down with the handrail, and when I reached the corner of the fourth floor, there were still traces of blood droplets being wiped dry on the wall.

"Is this it?" I turned around and asked Lu Lingyun.

"Yes, it was thrown here."

I looked up the stairs and looked down again, and I couldn't understand why the killer had chosen this place to throw the tools of the crime.

Just as I was thinking intently, my phone rang in my trouser pocket.

It was the fifth brother of the owner of the Internet café who called, and it seems that he saw that I was not in the Internet café so he called to ask.

"I'll answer the phone." I took my mobile phone and talked to Lu Lingyun, pushed open the door of the stairwell, and I walked into the corridor on the fourth floor.

"Hey~Fifth Brother~~"

"Chengzi, where have you been?"

I scratched my head and quickly explained: "A buddy came to me in the morning, there was something wrong, and I will go back soon." ”

"Oh, it's okay, I thought the thief was hard for you yesterday."

"How can it, the fifth brother has spoken, he definitely doesn't dare."

I was walking around on the phone, and before I knew it, I swayed to the elevator entrance, and the digital light by the door changed from one to two, and I watched it stop on the fourth floor.

The elevator doors slowly opened in front of me, and a man stood in the transparent light inside.

He was stunned when he saw me, and I was also startled, no one wanted to come out.

I stepped out of the way when he saw him carrying two bags of food, and the man stared at me strangely as he passed me.

The fifth brother's voice on the phone could no longer enter my brain, and my eyes were attracted to the man who stepped out of the elevator.

The way he walked made my heart beat faster, and I was pretty sure it was one of those figures that appeared in my dreams that night.

"Wait a minute!"

The man stopped, and he stood motionless in the hallway without looking back.

I don't understand why I shouted it, the phrase 'wait a minute' was clearly what I was trying to express.

"You... You've dropped something. I softened my tone and looked at an orange that had fallen out of the hole in the bag in his hand.

The man's tense shoulders relaxed, and he turned to look at the ground as well.

Just as he was walking back, the door of the stairwell was suddenly pushed open, and Lu Lingyun shouted loudly at me: "Xiaoyan, there is still something in my team, I won't send you back for a while." ”

His sentence made my emotions tense again, and the man who was bending over to pick oranges looked at Lu Lingyun.

Lu Lingyun seemed to notice that something was wrong, and glanced at me, and my eyes widened to hint at him.

Just as the two of us were about to send a signal in this way, the man shook the two bags of food in his hand and turned and ran towards his door.

Lu Lingyun and I rushed forward quickly, he got closer, and quickly subdued the man to the ground.

"Don't move! Be honest!! ”

Lu Lingyun's knees pressed against the suspect's lower back, and his two hands tightly grasped his wrists behind his back, his movements were clean and neat, leaving me no chance to shoot at all.

"Xiaoyan, help me call the team and ask them to get out of the car and bring this guy back."

"Oh, how many calls?"

"My phone is in my pocket, and the most recent call is."

I touched Lu Lingyun's jacket and took out my mobile phone from it, and I also felt the pectoral muscles of the material when I passed by, it seems that I usually pay attention to exercise, maybe I can learn from him in the future.

It didn't take long for the police car to arrive, and several uniformed police officers handcuffed the man and took him away, Lu Lingyun was also in a hurry to go back to interrogation, leaving me alone to stand in the cold wind, feeling the sadness of not being able to go to the village and not to the store.

Thinking that this guy invited me to two meals yesterday and gave me a loaf of bread this morning, I don't care.

After returning to the Internet café, I didn't hear from Lu Lingyun for the next few days, and he was like he had never appeared in my life.

Eating instant noodles sent by Wang Xiaoya every night, there is nothing to do except play games and visit the store.

This state lasted for a week or so, until midnight came.

I was sitting in front of my computer and engrossed in playing a game, when suddenly someone behind me tapped me on the shoulder.

"Just put the noodles on the table, I'll eat them later." I thought it was Xiaoya who brought me instant noodles, and I didn't look back and said.

"Eat that at night? Let's go~~ I'll treat you to supper. A slightly hoarse man's voice came from above me, and I looked up in surprise to see Lu Lingyun's chin.

"Brother Lu? What are you doing here? ”

"The case has just been concluded, so come to find you, the hero, let's go! Don't play yet. He pinched my shoulders with both hands, and couldn't help complaining: "It's okay to be thin enough, you can't get fat without a few meals of meat." ”

I stood up with a smile and said to him, "I'm sorry to let Brother Lu have a treat, I'll invite you for supper." ”

"What so much nonsense, hurry up." Lu Lingyun seemed to see through that I didn't have much money, and it was quite difficult to invite him, so he didn't give me a chance.

We went out of the Internet café, found a 24-hour old four seasons noodle restaurant, ordered two bowls of old noodle soup, broke two smoked chicken racks and four bottles of beer.

In addition to our table, there were only waiters left, and Lu Lingyun took me to sit by the door away from the counter.

When the hot noodles came up, I took a sip of the soup first———— it was so fragrant, it was better than instant noodles.

Lu Lingyun didn't seem to be satisfied, frowned and said, "I didn't expect that there is really nothing to eat around here, so let's make do with it." ”

"Hey~~ It's already good, what more bikes do you need?" I joked that this might be a household joke in the North.

Lu Lingyun smiled and picked up a chicken fork and put it in my bowl.

"Then you kid eat more."

I ate the noodles quickly, and there wasn't much left of the chicken rack.

Lu Lingyun kept looking at me while smoking, as if he had something to say.

"Xiaoyan, here are five hundred yuan, I applied from the team, and the reward for providing important clues in the 923 case, you take it first." As he spoke, he took out an envelope from his clothes and placed it on the table.

"Really?" I pulled the envelope in front of me in disbelief, opened it and looked at it, and sure enough, it was five red tickets.

"What are you lying to?"

"Brother Lu, then you tell me what's going on with that guy and why he killed someone." Curiosity haunted me and wanted to hear the whole truth from Lu Lingyun.

He hesitated, but then told me.

It turned out that this was a murder case caused by money.

The victims, Wu Zhigang and Luo Yan, were husband and wife, and their families originally had dozens of acres of land, but later after urban and rural transformation, the fields and houses were expropriated by the government, and the family suddenly had more money. The man who lives on the fourth floor is called Wu Degui, and he and Wu Zhigang are relatives, but they are not close.

Once a village, now it is a neighbor who was originally peaceful, Wu Degui worked in other places all the year round and rarely came back.

On September 15, Wu Degui returned home and met Wu Zhigang who was about to go upstairs in the elevator, and the two chatted briefly, and agreed to go to Wu Zhigang's house for a drink in the evening.
