Chapter 5 Informant Telephones
I realized I was sleepwalking, and I was still in this situation.
I was so embarrassed that I smiled at everyone. I clasped my hands over my pants and tried to find the conference room so I could get back dressed.
But I don't know the way anymore, and I wonder how I got here when I was sleepwalking. I'm in a hurry, otherwise there will be more people coming to work in a while, how can I mix in the police station after my virtue?
I hurriedly took out the rhythm of scurrying. That's when my name was called.
I looked sideways and saw that it was Yin Yin. I waved at her as if I had found a savior. But when I did that, my pants were exposed again, and I had to put my hands back.
Yin Yin knew what I meant, and she walked quickly to my side and led me away.
After returning to the conference room, Yin Yin smiled and stood at the door without going deeper. And I hurried to the seat.
Police uniforms were thrown all over the ground, and I didn't dislike anything, so I picked it up and put it on my body.
When I was done, I breathed a sigh of relief. Yin Yin also walked in, lit a cigarette and smoked.
I know sleepwalking is addictive. I was afraid that I would make a mistake in the future, so I asked Yin Yin, "Can I get two hands of handcuffs, and the next time I go to the police station to sleep, I will handcuff myself with handcuffs." ”
Yin Yin shook his head and said that it was not so troublesome, and emphasized that I had just woken up, and my brain had not fully adapted, and it was normal to have sleepwalking, and it would be fine after a while.
I thought to myself, why didn't she tell me earlier, but now it's too late to say anything. I asked her again, "What else could be wrong with my body?" You can talk about it together, and I also have a mental preparation in advance. ”
Yin Yin said no. When she finished smoking, she looked at her watch and said let's have breakfast together.
I haven't eaten anything since I woke up except for beer, and I'm really hungry. I nodded.
There was a cafeteria in the backyard of the police station, so we had to go to the breakfast shop outside.
I found out that the police cafeteria was not cash, but all credit cards. I didn't have time to do this kind of thing, so I had to let Yin Yin have a treat.
As I ordered, I realized that the policemen who were eating were looking at me, perhaps affected by my sleepwalking.
I had to deliberately turn a blind eye. We chose a secluded corner to eat.
I would like to take the opportunity to paraphrase Yinyin's words and ask her to tell me something about my death. But Yin Yin took out a tight-lipped posture.
When the meal was almost finished, a policeman rushed to the cafeteria. He didn't come to dinner, if I'm not mistaken, he was also there during the meeting last night, his name was Zhou Ming.
Zhou Ming held his mobile phone and looked around, and when he found me and Yinyin, he shouted loudly, "Commissioner Leng, there is progress in the case!" ”
I almost petrified on the spot, because I deliberately found a corner to hide, so that everyone would not look at me, and now everyone not only looked at me, but also knew what my name was.
I hate the itchy feeling of teeth. But he didn't know he had made a mistake, so he swooped over and sat down next to me.
Before I could ask anything, he said, "We spread the news of the taxi last night, and an informant called just now to say that he had found something." ”
He also held his phone up to me. I know that since I am currently in charge of this case, it is necessary to communicate with the informant.
In front of business, I can only put other things aside, I took my mobile phone, and dialed the phone according to the number Zhou Ming said.
After less than two rings, the informant answered.
This is still a female informant, and she speaks softly. I asked her what was going on.
She told me, "Wang Laoji seems to have blown up a bottle in her store last night." ”
I was stunned, and I said what Wang Laoji said, and I added many treasures. But the volume of the mobile phone microphone was very loud, and Zhou Ming also heard it.
He whispered to me that he was instructed by Captain Tie to call the murderer in this case Wang Laoji, a female informant who also runs a supermarket.
I knew that using this code name would make it easier for the informant to provide clues, and according to the female informant, the implication was that the killer had appeared in her shop last night.
I really have a headache with this kind of code, so I asked the female informant more, "If it's convenient, don't talk about Wang Laoji." ”
The informant knew I wanted to communicate with her normally. She changed her routine and said to me, "Last night, a taxi with a bad fender hit came to her store, and she thought it might be the murderer, and she also deliberately remembered the murderer's appearance and characteristics. ”
I nodded, and gestured to Yin Yin and Zhou Ming, did you bring a pen and paper?
Zhou Ming shook his head, but Yin Yin knew me very well, and she also came with a small bag when she had breakfast, and then took out a pen and paper from it.
I asked the female informant to describe the murderer's appearance, and at the same time drew it with a pen.
Zhou Ming was almost stunned, and at this time he didn't forget to give me a thumbs up.
I ignored it, concentrating. When the female informant finished describing the murderer's appearance, I was surprised.
Because I feel that I am familiar with the murderer and seem to have seen it. I thought to myself, it wouldn't have anything to do with what I had been going through, right?
The female informant waited for me for a long time and didn't reply, and then asked, "Is this clue useful?" Can you receive the reward? ”
I know very well that the reason why a mass informant like her is an informant is to make money. But I didn't have the start-up capital, not even the cash.
I first verbally praised the female informant, and then told her, "Wait a few days, the police will reward you for your deeds after verifying the information you provided." ”
The female informant seemed happy, and I hung up after a few more words with her.
After that, I didn't rush to say anything to Yin Yin and Zhou Ming, and concentrated on finishing the sketch.
When I held up the sketch for Yin Yin and Zhou Ming to see, Zhou Ming recognized it at a glance and said to me, "Commissioner, isn't this a dead person?" The one that was cooked. ”
I was thinking about this for a long time, but when I was reminded of it, I was completely connected, and I said in my heart that it was him.
But the question is, how can a dead man commit another crime to kill a schoolgirl? I don't believe it's a paranormal case, and I think of another possibility, could it be twins?
Almost instantaneously, I dismissed the idea that it was unlikely.
We were all pondering, but Yin Yin was very strange, and took out a posture of wanting to talk and stopping. Zhou Ming and I had similar ideas, and finally wanted to go together.
Zhou Ming also preemptively told me, "There is a problem with the female informant!" ”
I still have half a bowl of tofu brain left for breakfast, and I don't want to eat it, so I waved my hand to Zhou Ming, and I was going to the female informant's house.
Yin Yin didn't go with him, Zhou Ming and I got into a police car, and Zhou Ming knew the address of the female informant, so he was the driver.
He's pretty good at driving, and he's driving fast. I still have something to worry about, and I told Zhou Ming that I was afraid that the female informant would escape during this period.
Zhou Ming reassured me, he took out his phone to show me, and replied, "The police monitor informants very strictly, and if you want to be an informant, you have to implant a tracker in the heel." ”
I saw that his phone screen was showing a map with a bright spot on it.
The highlight should be the female informant, I tasted it for half a minute, and the female informant didn't move. I'm not worried anymore. And Zhou Ming's mobile phone is also set up with a call recording function.
I pulled up the recording and listened to it a few times.
It gives me the impression that the female informant speaks very calmly, which is not normal.
Come to think of it, she should either be a little excited in her tone, because she has a chance to receive the reward, or she should be a little nervous.
I had a vague realization that the phone call of the female informant was not so simple.
The informant's home was not too far from the police station, and a quarter of an hour later, we arrived at her house. She lives on the first floor, which belongs to the pattern of a supermarket and a home.
The front room is used as a supermarket, and the inside room is inhabited.
It's still early, the supermarket is not open, and it is locked by a rolling iron door.
Zhou Ming was going to call the female informant and ask her to come out. But it's evil, and the phone can't get through.
Zhou Ming was still wondering, saying that the signal on his side was full.
I didn't want to wait, so I said to Zhou Ming, "Find a way to open the door of the supermarket, let's go in and have a look." ”
The police car we drove also carried tools such as jacks and vices, and Zhou Ming brought the vices.
The two of us squatted in the corner of the rolling iron door, and Zhou Ming aimed a large solid lock with a vise. I found that this kid looks quite thin, but in fact, he has a wilting force.
As soon as he exerted his arms, there was a click, and the big lock broke.
Together, we pushed the scrolling door and raised it. As the scrolling door went up, the scene inside the supermarket gradually came into view.
Zhou Ming and I were the first to see a pair of dangling feet. I chuckled in my heart, and glanced at Zhou Ming.
I know what the feet mean, someone in the supermarket hanged themselves, and it could well even be a female informant.
I wonder why she suddenly couldn't think about it, and she wanted a bounty a moment ago, but why did she die at this moment?
