According to our investigation, the quick-frozen chicken nuggets produced by Baiyun Food Company are mainly sold wholesale, and the retail in the city requires buyers to come to the cold storage of the factory to pick up the goods, and the factory is not responsible for the distribution in the city.

However, we found a delivery van at a fried chicken shop in the city.

"Police." I showed my police ID and identified myself to the owner of the fried chicken restaurant.

The owner thought we were here to buy fried chicken and asked us what we needed to buy, but he didn't know that not only did we buy fried chicken, but we wouldn't buy it for a long time.

The boss was stunned for a moment, and any ordinary person would be stunned when the police suddenly came to the door.

When people see the police, they will feel safe, but when they see the police coming to the door, they will have a sense of fear.

"Comrade policeman, is there anything going on?" The boss knew that he had not done anything illegal, so he was naturally not afraid of the police, and he quickly came back to his senses and communicated with us normally.

"The van outside just now, is it for you?" I asked him.

The boss nodded and admitted, "It was delivered to me." ”

"What kind of goods are you sending?" I asked again.

"It's frozen chicken nuggets." The boss replied.

After experiencing this case, as long as we hear the word quick-frozen chicken nuggets, we will involuntarily associate it with this case. Officer Wang beside him heard these four words and subconsciously became nervous.

"Bring me the frozen chicken nuggets." I said to my boss.

The boss nodded weakly and turned back to get it. The goods had just arrived, and before they could be put in the freezer, they were temporarily placed on the table behind them.

The boss took out two packets of quick-frozen chicken nuggets from the box, one bag of chicken feet and the other bag of chicken wishbones.

"This is what I ordered." After the boss finished speaking, he put two packets of quick-frozen chicken nuggets on the cabinet and showed them to me.

I picked up a bag and looked closely, and sure enough, I was not mistaken, this is the quick-frozen chicken nuggets in the transparent bag, which is exactly the same as the bag I found in Nanshi and Renmin Street.

The product logo on it still has no production date, and there is only one address: Baiyun Food Company.

"Where did you order all these goods?" I put down the chicken nuggets and asked him with a smile.

"It's the goods ordered in the cold storage of the factory in Changhong District, and I have always used his goods, not only our fried chicken restaurant, but also the supermarket takes the goods from the cold storage." The boss chatted with me for a few words, slowly put my mind at ease, and the chat became more and more lively.

I guess he thought I was here to investigate the matter of frozen fingers and fried palms, after all, this matter has now become a big stir, and the whole city knows about it. I also own a fried chicken restaurant, and it is normal for the police to come to investigate and visit.

"Since you know that the city's quick-frozen chicken nuggets are taken from the cold storage of the factory in Changhong District, then you must also know that the cold storage of the factory is not delivered to the retail in the city, and buyers need to go to the cold storage to get the goods by themselves." I put away my smile and looked at him earnestly.

The boss nodded and admitted without concealment: "Yes, I have to go to the factory to get the goods myself." ”

"But why did the manufacturer deliver it to you?" I asked him suddenly.

The boss was stunned for a moment, then smiled and explained, "It's a middleman who delivers the goods to me." ”

"Middleman?!" Officer Wang, who had been by my side without saying a word, was shocked, because we had previously analyzed that Baiyun Food Company's sales of quick-frozen chicken nuggets were all directly sent by the manufacturer, and there were no middlemen.

In addition to selling directly to other urban areas by trucks, the factory also retails to merchants in the city. The existence of middlemen is to earn the difference in the middle price, purchase goods from the original price of the factory, and then slightly raise the price to make a profit. But the factory is in the city, why should merchants buy it at a high price? You can go to the factory to get the goods at the original price, so the middleman loses its meaning.

"What is the price of the chicken nuggets you bought?" I asked him again.

The boss hesitated for a moment, after all, the price of the business is confidential, and then he replied to me in another way: "I went to the factory to get the goods, and the price of this middleman is the same as that of the factory." ”

"Same?" Officer Wang was stunned again.

Is this middleman really strange, buying at the original price and selling at the original price? What to earn? Earn a shout?

"Yes, the price is the same, and at first I thought it was strange how there could be such a middleman. At that time, I was worried about whether this middleman was passing off the manufacturer's goods with counterfeit and shoddy products. But I took a closer look, from the packaging to the chicken nuggets, it is exactly the same, but sometimes, the bags of chicken nuggets will be smaller, but it does not affect our sales, because we all sell by weight. I simply bought the goods from the middleman, and I could save myself the need to go to the factory to run errands. "The boss didn't need us to ask again, he told us everything.

"How did you meet this middleman?" I asked.

"The middleman took the initiative to contact me, and he said that the whole fried chicken restaurant in Ningzhou City ordered from him." The boss replied.

The entire fried chicken restaurant in Ningzhou City orders from this middleman?

Although this is not guaranteed whether it is a deliberate reason made up by the middleman to sell the goods, I do not think the middleman is lying.

As a middleman, he will definitely not only provide chicken nuggets to this one, if he can make a profit from the middle, he will not make any money at all by selling one.

Is there any way for this middleman to get the goods from Baiyun Food Company at a lower price?

This is impossible, Baiyun Food Company cannot do this, this is not in line with the thinking of a business, this price difference was originally the income of Baiyun Food Company, but now it is made by the middleman.

No, it's not logical.

Could it be that the goods of this middleman are not Baiyun Food Company at all?

It can't be a small workshop, right?

The small workshop produces the same ingredients as Baiyun Food Company, and sells them to retail stores under the trademark of Baiyun Food Company......

This is indeed in line with the clues that the police have so far in this case.

In this way, corpse water red wine, as well as quick-frozen fingers and fried palms, are all from this small workshop?

If that's the case, it seems like everything makes sense......

"Do you have the middleman's contact number?" I asked the boss.

"Yes." The boss looked at me and nodded.

Then he turned on his phone, pulled out a phone number from his address book and told me, "This middleman's surname is Jiang." ”

I saved my phone number and smiled thoughtfully.

Leaving this fried chicken restaurant, I decided to look into the so-called middlemen. In order not to be caught by surprise, we need to plan carefully.

At this moment, I received a call from Ren Qiushi, in which he told me that during the autopsy, Zhou Yi's tongue was not found.
