Chapter 5: Casting a wide net

"It's really weird, but there's no point in thinking about it now, anyway, she has already agreed to meet, and after meeting in the evening, how can I hear the answer from her mouth." Tang Hongye also felt a little strange, but he didn't bother to guess this, and after making a phone call to the bureau and informing him of the next meeting with Du Juan's roommate, he already had his own arrangements.

Du Juan didn't ask at first, until she saw Tang Hongye parking the car in front of a large supermarket, then she looked at him with some wonder and asked, "What are we doing here?" ”

"I called just now, the autopsy of the deceased is still in progress, judging from the state of the scene, a person who died in a sleeping position in your bedroom and has not been found, after two days, it is estimated that it is not easy to confirm the identity from the missing person, so it is more likely that your roommate can provide some clues. The address she provided us with, quite far, driving from the bureau, and it was the time in the evening, the traffic jam must not be able to avoid, even if there is a slight traffic jam, it is also an hour to the bottom, so this time and again, to the bureau we can stay for more than an hour, can not do any substantive work, it is better to take the time to do something other serious things. Tang Hongye said.

Cuckoo turned his head to look at the supermarket next to him, still not realizing what he was talking about.

"Your room has become the scene of the crime, the bedding and pillows have been covered and used by the deceased, and your personal belongings have been kept in the same room with the deceased for two days, do you still plan to use them?" Tang Hongye asked.

Only then did the cuckoo realize that in addition to having a place to stay, he was also facing such a problem.

Not to mention that the man who appeared inexplicably in his room was already a dead corpse, and his bedding had been "displayed" with the dead corpse for more than two days, even if it was simply considering that his quilt and pillow had been used by a strange man, the cuckoo felt uncomfortable and could not continue to use it himself.

She has always been more concerned about this, from childhood to adulthood, all her personal belongings are easy not to share with others, her quilts and sheets, even if they come to relatives to stay overnight, can not be used for others to cover casually, this is also a consensus in the Du family, for this, Du's mother prepared several sets of bedding and bedding, just to ensure that even if the family stays with relatives during the New Year's holidays, it will not affect the cuckoo.

Tang Hongye has known Du Juan for many years, so he still knows a lot of things, and he didn't deliberately use the things that Du Juan cared about to block her when he was in the past, but now when he thinks about it, he has an urge to whip himself, and he feels that he is too embarrassed to be naΓ―ve.

The two walked into the supermarket, and the cuckoo sighed while thinking about what he needed to buy, this is really a disaster, although the residence has been temporarily solved, and it has not caused too much expense, but there are really a lot of things that need to be bought, even if the cuckoo himself is a criminal policeman, it may be relatively speaking, and there will be a lot less taboo than ordinary people, but aside from idealistic things, Who would want to continue to wear clothes and utensils that have been stained with the rotting smell of a corpse for two days?

However, the choice space in the supermarket is still relatively small, you can buy some daily necessities and bedding, and there is no way to solve the clothes, fortunately, because of the business trip before, I brought a few changes of clothes in the backpack, plus the spare clothes and pants in the unit locker, and now in such a cold winter season, I don't need to worry too much about not enough to change the clothes, and the problem of clothes will not be considered for the time being. It's true that I didn't have the heart to think it out too much.

The two of them pushed the shopping cart and bought some of the small daily necessities first, Tang Hongye rushed in front of the cuckoo and put it in the cart every time from facial cleanser to shampoo along the way, at first the cuckoo didn't say anything, but then he couldn't help it, frowned, and asked him: "Do you lack these things at home?" ”

"There's no shortage, didn't I buy it for you, I know, you've always used these kinds, and when I went to your house before, I saw it in the bathroom." Tang Hongye said to Du Juan with a smile, quite proud.

The cuckoo looked at him helplessly, shook his head with some tears and laughter, sighed, took out the contents of the shopping cart the same, put them back on the shelves, and then took another brand of shampoo and conditioner and put them in: "Do you remember the last time you came to my house?" ”

"Isn't it just ......" Tang Hongye blurted out, and the words stuck in a shell on the side of his mouth, and hesitated.

"It was four years ago, when we were facing the vacation of graduation and internship, and you were escorted to our house by Uncle Tang." The cuckoo gave him the exact answer, "You haven't been there since then." Do you think I'll have to start with a shampoo and not change it for years? ”

Tang Hongye's face turned a little red, just now he really wanted to take such an opportunity to create a little mutual understanding and intimacy with Du Juan, but he didn't expect that it would be unfavorable to be a teacher at the beginning.

However, he was a little unconvinced, and asked Du Juan: "Then do you know what brand I usually like to use?" ”

The cuckoo glanced at him, didn't say anything, walked straight to the shelf next to him, and took a bottle of men's shampoo from it: "Do you need it now?" I'll put it in the car if I need it, and I'll put it back if I don't need it. ”

She really got it right, it was indeed the shampoo I've been using lately!

Taking it from Du Juan's hand and putting it in the shopping cart, Tang Hongye was a little surprised: "How do you know?" ”

"You posted a photo to the circle of friends before, and the one whose hair suddenly stopped water after half washing." Cuckoo shrugged, "The shampoo is in the corner of the picture." It's actually very easy to want to get to know someone. ”

After finishing speaking, she didn't say anything more, and continued to walk forward, ready to buy a few useful towels, Tang Hongye pushed the shopping cart and followed behind, looking at the back of the cuckoo, and felt very complicated.

Du Juan is right, if you want to understand a person, it is actually very easy, the key is to see if you are attentive enough. If you don't have any special feelings for the cuckoo before, it doesn't seem to be too unreasonable to know her enough, but I know very well in my heart that after I had a vague good impression of the cuckoo in middle school, this feeling has never disappeared, but later because of my self-esteem, I repeatedly wanted to prove that I was very good in front of the girl I liked, and I was defeated without exception, and the annoyance with myself turned into a kind of anger towards the cuckoo because of the immaturity of my character. But that kind of anger can deceive others but can't deceive yourself, but when you know the true thoughts in your heart, you don't really care to understand everything about the cuckoo, in this regard, you are really bad.

But it doesn't matter now, fortunately, I have been able to face up to my feelings, just at this juncture, the cuckoo's residence has such a stall, and it can be regarded as creating a good opportunity for myself to get the first month near the water, if you don't know how to grasp it...... Then Tang Hongye, Tang Hongye, that thing around your neck can really be removed and kicked as a ball!

Although he knew that he shouldn't, Tang Hongye couldn't help but feel a little happy in his heart because that murder actually happened in Du Juan's room.

The two of them bought some daily necessities, Du Juan bought another set of bedding and quilt pillows, and the two of them left the supermarket with large bags and stuffed things into the trunk of the car, and rushed directly to the address provided by Du Juan's roommate.

Because there was no traffic jam, so the time was a little earlier than expected, the two of them parked the car and discussed, and felt that they should go directly to the door, and they couldn't really pinch the time given by the other party, so it was easy to be too passive, so Tang Hongye made a phone call, pretending that he was about to drive over, and asked the other party to tell himself the specific address such as the house number, Du Juan's roommate hesitated slightly on the other end of the phone, and asked Tang Hongye how long it would take to arrive, Tang Hongye casually told her that it would take about an hour, and when the man heard that it would take another hour, he finally said the address happily.

"She said her name is Mao Yaxuan, and the little Xuan that your landlady said, I guess that's how she came." After Tang Hongye hung up the phone, he said to Du Juan and motioned her to get out of the car, "Let's go, let's go meet 'Xiaoxuan'!" ”

Du Juan was a little worried at first, she had been a roommate for half a year, and she just found out about her name Mao Yaxuan today, whether it would be because they didn't come according to the time so they found a reason not to open the door for them, and she let go of half of her heart when she entered the community - this community seems to be okay from the outside, not particularly dilapidated, but in fact the management is very poor, the security door of the unit where Mao Yaxuan provided the house number is stuck with bricks, wide open, and there is no need for the residents upstairs to help unlock the lock.

When the two of them went upstairs, after Tang Hongye knocked on the door, the other half of the cuckoo's heart was quickly put down, because Tang Hongye didn't knock on the door a few times, someone came over and opened the door.

The one who opened the door to them was a young girl, who looked about the same age as Mao Yaxuan, but she was dressed very hot, with a brown-black translucent gauze shirt on her upper body, a low-cut small suspender belt looming, a black leather skirt covering her hips, and the stockings on her legs were thin and full of flesh.

Not only that, but this girl's face is like a palette, with heavy makeup, I don't know how many layers of false eyelashes are pasted, and the fan is like two small fans, and I don't know what cosmetics are rubbed on the face, and the skin is glowing with a layer of light pearl, as if a layer of mask is buckled on it.

"Who are you looking for?" The girl with heavy makeup glanced at Tang Hongye and asked, because the cuckoo was blocked behind Tang Hongye, she didn't see that there was another person present at the first time.

Tang Hongye didn't know what Du Juan's roommate looked like, and when he saw the person in front of him, the other party's appearance was not very clear, but as soon as he opened the door, he was almost choked by the strong smell of perfume, he didn't have many opportunities to deal with women because of his work on weekdays, except for Du Juan, the most familiar ones are the female policemen in the criminal police team, and no matter how different their personalities and appearances are, they are also because of their professions, Most of the time, it looks plain to the sky, and there is no such thing as perfume, let alone such a strong fragrance.

He breathed a sigh of relief and asked, "May I ask if you are Mao Yaxuan?" We were by phone before. ”

"I'm not, the person you're looking for is in the house, come in!" The woman with heavy makeup looked at Tang Hongye with a kind of daily love and sun-daunting gaze, and at the same time flashed open the door and shouted into the house, "Xiao Xuanxuan, there is a handsome guy looking for you, I said you are enough!" Cast a wide net, has this person been invited to my house? ”

As soon as she finished teasing, she turned her head and saw the cuckoo following Tang Hongye, the woman with heavy makeup was stunned for a moment, her eyes were a little surprised, and she obviously realized that the intention of the person who came was probably not the same as she thought, so she was trying to guess what was going on. But she didn't say much, just muttered that she had something to go out, and then hurriedly picked up a down coat from the side and wrapped it, carried a small satchel the size of a slap and went out, as if she was afraid that if she stayed for a few more minutes, she would hear something that she shouldn't hear, or see something she shouldn't see, and add trouble to herself.

Du Juan looked at her figure leaving in a hurry, and couldn't help but sigh, guessing in her heart, should this woman think that she and Tang Hongye came to trouble Mao Yaxuan because of the problem of private [HX] life? It's not that she's too careful, it's really the sentence "cast a wide net" by the woman with heavy makeup sounds really like no way not to think in that direction, plus the rapid change in the expression on her face after discovering that Tang Hongye has a person behind her, it is also very meaningful.

"Who? Who's looking for me? Isn't that the handsome guy who called me just now? ”

A woman's voice came from the house, it sounded like someone was talking and walking out, and as soon as the cuckoo heard the voice, she knew that it was definitely her unreliable roommate himself, and there would be no mistake.
