In the early morning of the next day, as soon as Wu Cuo opened his eyes, he saw Yan Ruyu sitting in front of the computer wrapped in a quilt and playing games.

Wu Cuo turned over and wanted to lie down for a few more minutes, but Yan Ruyu turned around and patted him, "Get up quickly when you wake up, don't pretend to be dead." ”

"Heavenly ...... It's not lit yet, is it? Wu Cuo covered his head with a quilt and asked in a daze.

Crash

Yan Ruyu opened the curtains, and the sun was shining.

"Some people don't sleep at night and can't afford to sleep during the day, how old they are......"

"Got it, Daddy Yan......" Wu Cuo muttered as he covered himself in the quilt.

Yan Ruyu covered her mouth and stole fun, and her smile was a little bitter halfway through the fun.

If his parents were still alive, they would have nagged him like this.

Thinking about it like this, Yan Ruyu couldn't bear to call him a little, but he still said stiffly: "I'll go buy breakfast, you'd better get up when you come back." ”

Twenty minutes later.

The two went out while eating steamed buns, and Wu mistakenly said, "I remember you didn't say it yesterday...... There will be a breakthrough in the case today......"

"What's the hurry, isn't it just the beginning today?"

"Any ideas?"

"It's not that complicated.

There is no doubt that the back kitchen is a confined environment, and the murderer can only be the staff of the store, and there are people who are lying, and whoever lies is the murderer. ”

"I also know this......" Wu Cuo retorted to Yan Ruyu rarely, "The key is what to do next?" Keep asking? ”

"Let's ask someone else."

"Who?"

"the people who are least likely to lie to us."

City Scald Hospital, an ordinary ward.

Yan Ruyu and Wu Cuo first saw the proprietress outside the ward.

My sister was burned unexpectedly, and she is taking care of her these days. The proprietress didn't look very good, obviously tired and exhausted.

Seeing the two criminal policemen, she was stunned at first, and stepped forward to stop the two outside the ward.

"...... you guys?"

"We want to talk to the mom of the child."

"But ......" the proprietress didn't mean to give in at all, "I haven't told her about Xiaoyu yet, I'm afraid of ...... She couldn't stand it. ”

That's a problem. The child's mother will inevitably have a nervous breakdown when she hears this kind of news, and the result of the inquiry will be greatly discounted, and the two may run in vain.

Wu Cuo frowned and asked the proprietress, "Then when are you going to tell her?" ”

"I ...... Ay! She just asked about the child's situation and said that she wanted to see the child......"

Seeing that this person was also without an idea, Yan Ruyu simply pushed the door and entered the ward directly.

There were three beds in the ward, but fortunately, there was only one bed lying on it, and that was naturally the child's mother.

When the two approached, they saw that the woman on the hospital bed was almost completely naked, and the right side of her waist and abdomen, as well as the front and outside of her thighs, were smeared with medicine to treat burns.

Hearing the movement, the woman who closed her eyes opened her eyes.

Seeing that it was two men, she panicked and pulled a thin blanket over it.

"Who are the two ......?"

"We are the criminal police of the Jingbei City Public Security Department, and I want to know something about your burns." Yan Ruyu said.

"Huh?" The woman was very confused, "Got it wrong, right?" I'm ...... Surprise! ”

After saying this, she began to worry that the two of them were liars again, and out of the corner of her eye, she glanced at the bedside table Yan Ruyu guessed that there should be some cash and other valuables in the bedside table.

"Sister! Sister! The woman shouted uneasily towards the door.

The proprietress entered the house and looked at the two detectives almost with a pleading gaze.

Yan Ruyu nodded slightly at her, telling her to calm down.

"Your burns may not have been accidental, that's ...... Your sister will explain it to you later. ”

"Yes." The proprietress answered stiffly.

"In the store? What's wrong? The woman asked.

Yan Ruyu directly intercepted the conversation and asked, "Can you tell us what happened on the day you were burned?" Let's start with the moment you enter the store early in the morning. ”

"Oh...... ......The woman thought for a few seconds, adjusted her thoughts, and replied, "I went out with the child at six o'clock that morning......"

"Six o'clock? So early? Do small children wake up? ”

"It's not that early every day...... the woman said.

The proprietress took over and said: "It's inconvenient for her to take the child, she usually goes to the store at nine o'clock, and it is early that morning...... Ay! I have a toothache, this is also an old problem, I have been putting up with it, it was so painful that day that I couldn't stand it, so I wanted to go to the hospital and go to the store later. ”

The woman continued: "Hasn't it been cold in the past two days, the business in the store is very good early in the morning, and I can't be busy at all, my sister doesn't go, I want to go over early to help, so I brought the child over early." ”

Yan Ruyu rubbed his chin and said, "So, you arrived at the store very early that day, which is actually an abnormal situation?" ”

"That's right."

"Except for your sister and brother-in-law, does anyone else in the store know that you will bring the child over early?"

"I don't know, I didn't tell them...... I went to what they found out...... Hey, what the hell is going on? Sister? ”

Yan Ruyu continued to ask, "How did you get burned, do you remember?" ”

The topic of "that ......" was pulled back by Yan Ruyu again, and the woman had no choice but to continue: "It was very sudden, it was a slip under the soles of my feet...... Hey, I didn't think the kitchen was slippery before......"

"Was the child there when you burned?"

"Not there! The kid was out there! It's a good thing he wasn't around, otherwise he wouldn't have been scared......"

"What about after the burn? I've heard that the whole of them carried you to the antechamber together. ”

"That's right, the first person to react at that time was Chef Wu. He beckoned to the two cooks and lifted me out together. A cleaner and a waiter also came to help, carried outside, just waiting for an ambulance. ”

"What about the rest of the store? Do you remember what they were all doing? ”

"There were six or seven waiters in the front hall, and the store was already open, and everyone was waiting to greet customers, which was very busy, and some of them helped me with ideas, and let me apply toothpaste and soy sauce...... I can't remember exactly what each one was doing. ”

"And what about your son? Did he care about you in the past? ”

"My son was in the front hall, but I was afraid to scare him, and besides, I asked someone to take him aside."

"Who are you asking for?"

"I ......," the woman asked suspiciously, "what's wrong with my son?" Is something wrong with my son? ”

Yan Ruyu emphasized: "Do you remember who you asked to take care of your son at that time? ”

Perhaps out of her mother's intuition, this time the woman insisted, "Sister, where is Xiaoyu?" You said you brought him to see me on the day I was admitted to the hospital, why didn't you bring him? ”

The proprietress looked at Yan Ruyu helplessly, and the woman was even more suspicious.

"The kid's dad is here!" Yan Ruyu said.
