Chapter IX: Disappearance
"How much?" Lei Baoquan asked.
Sister Fang smiled: "Five yuan." ”
"Is this so cheap?" Lei Baoquan was even more surprised than just now.
"I said it a long time ago, there is no bullying here." Li Bai said.
Sister Fang took the money and said: "The main reason is that there are not many people who are willing to come to our old-fashioned barber shop to shave their heads, they are all old neighbors, we don't make money, we just like this craft, my father told us before his death, never raise the price." ”
Lei Baoquan and Li Bai couldn't help but be in awe of the old man who had passed away, although these people did not have as many styles as the current hairdressers, but the craftsmanship was not inferior to them at all, and the most important thing was that the craftsmen of the older generation had their own beliefs in their hearts, and they would rather suffer losses than violate them. How many people are still able to do that?
Lei Baoquan put on his coat, and the mobile phone rang, it was Sun Duo. He and Li Bai glanced at each other, and a bad feeling instantly came to his heart.
"Hey." Lei Baoquan picked up the phone and replied in a low tone.
The other side paused and said, "Team Lei, do you have time?" Come to the bureau and tell you something. ”
After Lei Baoquan put down the phone, Li Bai asked curiously what was the matter, Lei Baoquan shook his head and said, "I didn't say it on the phone, let's go over first." ”
"Then we'll go first." Li Bai said goodbye to Sister Fang with a smile.
Sister Fang smiled at them and sent them out. The two of them turned out of the alley while talking something, and at the door of the barbershop, Sister Fang stood in place, watching the backs of the two leave with deep eyes.
"There's no more case, is it?" Li Bai asked while sitting in a taxi.
"I don't know, he didn't say it, it's mysterious, and I feel that this time things are not very good." Lei Baoquan also wondered why Sun Duo suddenly became hesitant this time every time he called. Could it be that something has happened?
The two didn't say anything all the way until they came to the bureau and saw Sun Duo. Sun Duo was chewing a piece of bread, and when he saw the two of them coming, he hurriedly beckoned, "Sit down, sit down." ”
"What's going on?" Lei Baoquan asked.
"Huh?" Sun Duo poured water for them as he looked at them with a little doubt. Doesn't seem to understand.
"I just heard you on the phone that wasn't quite right, did something happen?" Lei Baoquan continued to ask.
"Oh, that's the case, my son will go to elementary school in two days, and I want to invite a few close friends to dinner, so I'll tell you." Sun Duo said with a smile.
"That's it?" Lei Baoquan was stunned.
"Ahh Sun Duo nodded.
Lei Baoquan scratched his head: "Then why didn't you say it on the phone?" ”
"I think it's more sincere to invite you in person, hehe." Sun Duo smiled embarrassedly.
"I thought it was a big deal, so why did you pretend to scare me with that kind of voice?" Lei Baoquan gave him a blank look.
Sun Duo rubbed his throat and said, "I've had a little cold in the past two days. It's always been that voice on the phone. ”
"Brother Duo, is it necessary for your son to go to elementary school, is it necessary to make it so grand? It's not college. Li Bai felt that Sun Duo was making a bit of a fuss.
"Hey, you don't understand this, so I have a reason to go out for a drink or two with Team Ray, right?" Sun Duo laughed.
Lei Baoquan also shook his head with a smile and said, "You kid, use all your anti-reconnaissance skills to deal with your wife, right?" But seriously. Isn't there anything going on these days? ”
Sun Duo finished nibbling on the slice of bread and cleaned his clothes. He said: "Yes, there is, but we can solve it ourselves, and it is the case of disappearance." ”
"Disappearance?" When Li Bai heard this, his interest increased greatly, and he said: "We have investigated several homicide cases, and we have never encountered a missing person. Let's hear it. ”
Seeing that Li Bai was so interested, Sun Duo simply said: "I received a report yesterday afternoon, and the reporter was a woman, saying that her best friend had been missing for a night, and she hadn't found it after looking for a day. ”
"It's that simple?" Li Bai thought for a while and said.
"Is it easy?" Lei Baoquan didn't understand his thinking pattern. Where does this show simplicity?
Li Bai shrugged: "Isn't it just a woman who has been missing for a day?" You may be able to go somewhere. ”
Lei Baoquan smiled and said, "According to your thinking, more than a dozen people have to disappear every day in Yungang City. ”
Li Bai "cut" and rolled his eyes.
Sun Duo continued: "But we also received a report the day before yesterday, the reporter was a mother, saying that her daughter who was in high school went out on Sunday and did not come back, I sent a few people out to find it, and there is no news now. ”
"That is, two women are missing now?" Li Bai asked.
"Yes, so far." Sun Duo replied.
"It's not easy." Li Bai said with his chin in his hands again.
Lei Baoquan looked at the back of his head and said, "I said, what do you rely on?" ”
Li Baixu said matter-of-factly: "You see, if the disappearance of one person is an accident or coincidence, then the disappearance of two people in succession means that there is something here!" ”
"What's the matter?" Lei Baoquan asked.
"Story." Li Bai said lightly.
"Fuck off, boring or not?" Lei Baoquan said angrily.
Sun Duo waved his hand, signaled the two to stop arguing, and said: "There are no clues so far, we have looked for the surveillance on the street, but the two missing women, their families or friends do not know where they went or what they did before they disappeared, so there is no progress yet." ”
"Is there any connection between these two people?" Lei Baoquan asked.
"I've checked, no, the two don't know each other at all, and they haven't crossed paths." Sun Duo replied.
"Could it be kidnapped?" Li Bai guessed.
"But no one called their families to threaten them." Sun Duo said, "And how can a kidnapper tie up two of them? ”
Lei Baoquan thought for a while and said, "I don't think this is a simple case, maybe there is something bigger behind it." ”
"Yes, yes, I think so too." Li Bai said with a smile.
Lei Baoquan glared at him and said, "Fuck off, as soon as others say something, you will follow suit, do you have any opinions?" ”
"The first few cases were all breakthroughs because of my inadvertent words, don't ignore this!" Li Bai said unconvinced.
"Blind cats have to run into dead rats, right? Otherwise, I would have starved to death. Lei Baoquan said sarcastically.
Sun Duo smiled beside him and said, "But Xiaobai, a blind cat, can always run into dead mice." ”
After speaking, he and Lei Baoquan laughed together. Li Bai glanced at them and said, "You are motivated comrades who have been squeezed out of the establishment, and I am very indignant about this. ”
"Yes, but we don't accept it." After Lei Baoquan finished speaking, he laughed again.
"Team Sun!" While the three of them were talking, Xiao Liang walked in, looking at his expression as if something was wrong, "Team Sun!" There's a case! ”
The three of them looked at each other, and Sun Duo nodded: "What's the matter?" (To be continued.) )
