Chapter 2: The Talkative Driver

I looked at the two men in the distance and sneered: "I seem to understand now why the local provincial public security department strictly prohibits various departments from meddling in this case." ”

"What do you mean? Which department are they? Li Meng was puzzled.

I shook my head and beckoned to everyone: "Don't ask, let's go first." ”

"Where are we going? Do you go directly to the Municipal Public Security Bureau? Lin Zifan hurriedly asked me.

I still shook my head and said lightly, "Let's go to the city first." ”

The high-speed rail station in Pinghe City is not in the urban area, but in the suburbs. So we walked to the taxi stand, took two taxis, and prepared to go to the city.

"Where's the many?" The taxi driver asked us.

"Downtown, places to eat, anywhere." I said lightly.

"Okay." The taxi driver flicked the meter, and the car slowly drove towards the city.

"You're here for a tour?" The taxi driver was very chatty and took the initiative to chat with us.

I nodded and replied, "yes, it's okay to be idle, come here with a few friends." ”

"Where are you?" The taxi driver continued to ask.

"We're from Ningzhou City." I replied lightly.

"Oh, Ningzhou's, that's far away, a thousand kilometers smaller!" The taxi driver smiled and continued to chat with us.

"That's right, more than nine hundred kilometers." I smiled and said in a deep voice.

The car was driving on a suburban road lined with bungalows and a few old houses that looked like they could be blown down by a single wind.

After a short drive, the car turned into a narrower auxiliary road, which taxi drivers are most familiar with in the city, which not only has fewer cars, but also avoids two traffic lights.

I sat in the passenger seat, and through the front windshield, I saw a short stretch of dirt road in front of me that had been flat asphalt road, followed by a flat asphalt road.

This dirt road is not long, only a little more than ten meters away, like a huge road puzzle, with one piece missing.

The car jolted a bit, but it quickly returned to its steady.

"What's going on? Road construction has been left behind? I asked with a frown.

The taxi driver smiled and said, "Do you see the house next to the dirt road?" ”

After listening to him, I quickly looked through the rearview mirror, and sure enough, next to the dirt road, there was a small dilapidated bungalow, with a cold spring and a plastic sheet on the window.

If you put a fence around that dirt road, it's like a small front yard.

"See." I replied.

While driving the car, the taxi driver told us the story of that year: "That is a well-known nail household in Pinghe City, when urbanization construction, in order to widen the road, the government planned to demolish more than a dozen bungalows on the side of the road, gave the relocation building, and gave the demolition money." It was originally a good thing, but on the day of the demolition, other people's families moved away, and as for his family, the temporary lion opened his mouth and asked the government to add another 100,000 yuan. The government talked to their family many times, but they couldn't reach a deal, so there was no way to widen the front of his house, so they didn't repair it. ”

"And that kind of thing?" When I heard the news, I was very surprised.

"That's not it, now that I think about it, it was all more than 20 years ago, and the price at that time, 100,000 yuan was not a small amount!" The taxi driver opened the conversation and talked to us about the story and the price of the year.

He said that the birthday cake of the year could buy an eight-inch cake for 30 yuan, but now, it is 200 yuan smaller!

After chatting with him for a while, I suddenly asked him, "I heard that there are dead people in Pinghe City?" ”

The driver smiled and said casually: "One day there will be no death." ”

So, I changed the way I asked: "Pinghe has a murder case recently?" ”

The driver was obviously stunned for a moment, and he asked us with some surprise: "This matter has been passed on to Ningzhou?" Now this network, hey! That's amazing! ”

After the driver finished speaking, he hurriedly added to us: "It's okay, don't worry, it's a society under the rule of law, and Pinghe is very safe, you don't have to worry, you can travel how you want, how you want to play." ”

"What's going on with this murder?" I asked, pretending not to care.

People in every city love the city deeply, and when they meet outsiders, they will praise their city, which is a kind of regional pride.

In order to dispel the concerns of several of us "tourists", the driver did his best to tell us the version of the story he knew: "It was a group of young people fighting and fighting, and I heard that it was a gangster who died, and it was nothing serious." ”

Maybe the driver felt that this explanation was a little inappropriate, and he added: "I heard that this little gangster is not a good thing, it seems to be a thug for KTV or night clubs." ”

"Oh." I made a faint voice and asked, "Did you catch the murderer?" ”

"The police are already investigating, and they should be caught soon, don't worry, Pinghe's security is still very good." The driver smiled and said to us seriously.

When you meet a talkative driver and chat for a while, you feel that the distance is not far. Soon, the car stopped at the relatively lively commercial street.

"Okay, master, thank you." After I scanned the QR code to pay, I politely thanked him.

"You're welcome, I wish you all a great time in Pinghe City! Have fun! "The driver was also very polite and gave us his best wishes.

I smiled at him and closed the door gently.

"Team Qin, why are we here?" Lin Zifan looked at the bustling commercial street and asked with some puzzlement.

It was also my first time in Pinghe City, so I took a closer look at my surroundings and said lightly: "Of course, it's an investigation." ”

"Do you have detailed clues to the case?" Li Meng patted my arm and hurriedly asked me.

I looked around, and finally locked on a direction: "I don't have a detailed clue, the boss only gave me a deceased person's information before leaving." ”

People are still looking at us, and they still don't understand why I'm back here.

Actually, I don't know, but the identity of the deceased says that his profession is a security guard at the "Rhine Bar".

After I told everyone about this only clue, I didn't say anything more.

Everyone looked at me in amazement and asked, "That's all?" ”

"Yes, that's all, as the case was reported, the Provincial Public Security Department issued an order asking the serious crime team to intervene. At the same time, the police in Pinghe City stopped continuing to follow up, and this is all the clues they have so far. I said lightly.
