Zhou Ning didn't follow, and when he got home, he saw a note on the table, and a rice bowl with white and fat dumplings in it, and they were steaming.

The note was written by his grandfather, and a smile bloomed on Zhou Ning's lips, during the New Year's holiday, the warmth brought to you by the word home is irreplaceable, even if there are no parents, but this love, he has never lacked.

After washing his hands, Zhou Ning called his grandfather first.

"Xiao Ning, just got off work?"

"Well, as soon as I entered the house, I saw dumplings, grandpa, are you in your hometown or in the city?"

"In the city, I've eaten with your second uncle's family, you hurry up and have a good rest after eating, your second uncle said, you don't have to toss over if you have a case."

Grandpa said this, he just didn't want Zhou Ning to toss the past again, but the old man understood him best.

"Well, I'll not go today, you should rest early, strive to end this case as soon as possible, and I can accompany you for the New Year in a down-to-earth manner."

Grandpa smiled, and his laughter was full of satisfaction.

"Oh yes, at noon today, your second aunt's colleague came to the house, sent a lot of Kansai specialties, and chatted with me for a while, and listened to your second aunt say that the teacher who taught you to paint is surnamed Xia, who is so beautiful, educated, and talks well.

You call someone back, Mr. Xia came to the door like this, not for the movement of colleagues, this is specially to come to see me, do you understand what you mean? ”

Zhou Ning was stunned, Xia Momo actually went to the second uncle's house to see his grandfather, which was unexpected, but what does this mean?

"What do you mean, grandpa?"

"Stinky boy, I'll just say that you don't think about it in this way, if it's just a student, she comes to the door like this, and the girl is interesting to you, understand? Don't pretend to be naïve, you have a little heart, I am satisfied with this granddaughter-in-law, if I mess up and break your legs, hurry up and call back. ”

After speaking, the old man hung up the phone, and Zhou Ning had not yet come out of the state of enlightenment.

Xia Momo is interesting to herself?

How did I not know?

How is this possible, the girl is beautiful, her job is also very good, there are many suitors, and when she is in class, the bouquet she puts at the door has never been broken.

Zhou Ning never had this idea at all, just like Xu Zhanshan wanted to shake hands with him today, although some people think that this profession is mysterious and interesting, and always feels novel, but more cognition is fear and disgust.

But Xia Momo's sudden visit made Zhou Ning still a little puzzled, he always felt that this matter had nothing to do with him, let alone talk about liking himself, which was a bit self-inflicted.

After thinking about it, he flipped to Xia Momo's phone and dialed it.

"Hey, you're off work?"

"Well, I just came home from work, and I heard my grandfather say, you went to the second uncle's house today, chatted with my grandfather for a long time, and sent him a lot of special products, and I didn't know what to say to thank you all of a sudden."

There was a gentle laugh on the other end of the line.

"My dad came back from a business trip, brought a lot of Kansai specialties, our family has a small population, to a few colleagues who are closer, you don't have to thank you, if you want to thank, you can invite me to a big meal, I have no opinion on this."

"Okay, but I'm going to finish this case, it's not a few days before the New Year, and I can't rest with the case for the New Year, the case is over, I'll treat you to a big dinner."

Somehow, Zhou Ning thought of that Western restaurant in his mind.

"Okay, I know you're busy and rest early, I'm on winter vacation now, just call me when you're done, I'm hungry in advance, so I can eat you poor."

"Okay, then I'll eat first, smell the dumplings, I'm really hungry."

The two said goodbye, and then hung up the phone, Zhou Ning looked at the dumplings, frowning.

The call was made.

But he didn't hear any difference between Xia Momo and himself, or the same as usual, could it be that the old man was thinking too much?

......

The case is stuck.

The two-day investigation on the 27th and 28th had no clue.

The house rented by the deceased did not find the fingerprints and hair of the third person, the dust on the ground was very thick, and no one had lived in it for at least a month, so there was no value to find.

Early in the morning of January 29, 2011, Zhou Ning checked his mailbox as soon as he turned on the phone, and sent an email last night, he hurriedly printed out the report of the inspection center, read it, raised the X-ray film again, and quickly dialed Xu Dayuan's phone.

"Xu Da's test report came out, the two hairs in the deceased's mouth were dog hair, after DNA testing, this belonged to a black Labrador, and no rice Qingzi was found in the alley, only lubricant ingredients.

As for the water sample from the deceased's lungs and the water sampled from the reservoir, after comparison, the composition is completely identical, that is, the deceased was in a coma with head trauma, and then sank into the reservoir and drowned.

In the head wound extract, I found motor oil and an unknown bloodstain of male DNA, and I have just carefully identified the morphology, width and curvature of the depression of the fracture, which is the same size as the C-shaped cephalad of the 32mm ratchet wrench, which is standard with the Prado. ”

Xu Dayuan snorted, and then the door of the forensic doctor's office opened, and Zhou Ning turned around to find that Xu Dayuan walked in, his beard was scruffy and his eyes were bloodshot, obviously there was no progress over there.

Zhou Ning hung up the phone, stood up and handed the report to Xu Dayuan, he swept it, in fact, Zhou Ning had already told him the key points.

"The car with the deck plate was not found, the hospital from the guards to the nurses of various departments, all who knew the deceased were screened, and now except for Xu Zhanshan and Wang Suyun, there is no third person at all, I saw Zhang Jiahui get off the Toyota Prado.

The investigation is at a dead end, but why do you say that Labrador hair is in the mouth of the deceased? ”

Zhou Ning shook his head, he also thought about this for a long time and didn't understand.

"I haven't figured it out for the time being, but according to what Xu Zhanshan said, his sexual fetishes are very special, and Zhang Jiahui can be so compatible with him, so he is naturally a kind of person, so ...... I'm too young to understand! ”

Such a sentence made Xu Dayuan's old face red, and the report fell directly on Zhou Ning's head.

"Less poor with me."

Zhou Ning thought about it and looked up at Xu Dayuan.

"Since the investigation has not progressed, why don't I perform another autopsy, I have already informed Uncle Cui to thaw the body, maybe we still have some omissions, after all, there are too few known conditions, and the identity of the murderer is only suspected to be the fake car of the Toyota Prado."

Xu Dayuan nodded.

"I think so too, call Da Zhao over, and I'll go with you to have a look."

Zhou Ning hurriedly called Zhao Xinli, and after a while, this kid ran up with a pile of books, and Xu Dayuan was a little surprised when he saw this pile of books.

"Why are you thinking about reading when the sun hits the west?"

Zhao Xinli pouted.

"Thanks to you, these books were ordered for me by Xiao Zhou's forensic doctor, let me memorize them, how can I memorize so much?"

As soon as Xu Dayuan raised his hand, Zhao Xinli didn't look at the five big and three thick, and avoided Xu Dayuan's hand very flexibly, and put the book rules on the table.

"Don't do it, I'll call in sick if I'm injured, and then I won't take the test."

"I'm still begging you, don't talk nonsense and drive us away."

"Where?"

"Eight Courtyards."

......

The team is not far from the Eighth Courtyard, after four intersections, turn five or six hundred meters to the east is the Eighth Courtyard.

While waiting for the traffic light, a Toyota Prado sped over, and Zhou Ning stared at the car several times, but the car number was not the 74110 of that deck.

"Hehe, you're like me, now I want to take a second look when I see a Toyota Prado on the road, is it a 2010 model, is the car number that, it's almost sick!"

Zhou Ning didn't speak, and Xu Dayuan poked Da Zhao in the shoulder.

"There's so much nonsense, why don't you just go up and take a look?"

Zhou Ning glanced back at Xu Dayuan in surprise, and saw that he didn't seem to be joking, so he quickly grabbed the handle on the car door, and Zhao Xinli grinned.

"That's what I love to do, sit down!"

Saying a foot on the accelerator, when the yellow light was counted to 1, he jumped out directly, Zhou Ning was smashed on the chair by a thrust, stretched out his feet vigorously, and kicked forward, this technology is really awesome, and the gear lever was shaken out of the spark.

Shuttling in the traffic, I saw that I was catching up with the Toyota Prado, but the car directly hit the turn signal and stopped in front of the Eighth Courtyard.

Just as he was about to pass in front of the gate of the Eighth Courtyard, a gray-haired man got out of the car, not tall, wearing glasses, looking polite, and constantly nodding and greeting the person beside him while walking inside, this state was obviously a person from this hospital.

Who is he?

Zhou Ning hadn't seen it, and looked back at Xu Dayuan, Xu Dayuan was stunned for a moment.

"Shen Guanlin of the anesthesiology department."

"Oh?"

At this moment, the Toyota Prado had already started, overtaking Zhou Ning's car and heading towards the front.

Zhao Xinli was a little anxious and urged:

"Hurry up, do we follow that car, or do we enter the Eighth Courtyard?"
