Chapter 31: The Midnight Man
We found Han Xingqiu's office in the elementary school in Xinchuan Village, but we didn't find any clues, and there were obvious traces of rummaging.
Han Xingqiu is a person who pays special attention to details, especially in the placement of items in the room, everything must be placed neatly.
We just found out about this at Han Xingqiu's house.
But in Han Xingqiu's office at Shinkawa Village Elementary School, there is a different scenery.
The books on his desk were crookedly arranged, and the drawers weren't completely closed.
"Could it be Niu Satellite? What did he come here for? Li Meng looked at the scene in front of him and let out a somewhat puzzled voice.
This time, all of us focused our attention on Niu Satellite.
"No matter what Niu Weixing is looking for, he must have something to do with this case." I took a deep breath and said lightly.
The police pay attention to evidence in handling cases, and the most important thing in a case is the motive for the killing.
But that's exactly what we're missing the most.
We didn't find any important clues in Han Xingqiu's office, and we were only skeptical of Niu Weixing, after all, we hadn't found the connection between Niu Weixing and Guan Xutong's murder.
It is impossible for Niu Weixing to have emotional entanglements with Guan Xutong, and it is impossible for him to have a grudge with Guan Xutong.
The real murderer, maybe someone else.
The night fell again, and the entire village of Shinkawa was engulfed in darkness, with only a few street lamps at the entrance of the village lit up.
The murderer just killed Han Xingqiu last night, and there will definitely be a big move in the near future.
We arranged an undercover post to look for clues in Shinkawa Village.
I chose a rice straw stack lurking at the entrance of the village, which is a high place with a wide field of vision, overlooking most of the third team of Xinchuan Village.
Tonight the moon is bright, and there are dark clouds in the sky, which is a good day to squat.
I was very comfortable lying on the rice stalks, observing every move in the village.
Although the rice stalk is a little prickly, it is still stronger than the snow back then, and if it hadn't been for that squat, my leg would not have fallen sequelae.
I think I was also a criminal policeman with a lot of force back then, not to mention that I was also agile when I walked on the wall. It's just that now with Xue Hang, there is no chance for me to show it, alas......
By the moonlight, I looked at my watch, it was just past twelve o'clock in the morning, and it was already late at night.
Blowing in the summer breeze, I felt a little sleepy.
After another two hours, I was already a little unrestrained and drowsy.
Two o'clock in the afternoon is the hottest time of the day, and two o'clock in the night is the sleepiest time of the day.
At that moment, a figure floated through the village.
The village was quiet, the villagers were sleeping at home, not to mention that there were no pedestrians on the road, not even a wild cat was seen.
The village in front of me was a relatively static picture, and a sudden appearance of a figure stimulated my visual nerves and made me feel refreshed immediately.
It was a white figure, dressed in white.
He appeared out of nowhere on the road, and I didn't see where he came from. It was so far away that I didn't even know if the white figure was male or female.
I squinted my eyes and tried to focus my eyes, trying to see farther and see more clearly.
But even so, the white figure was the size of my palm, but in the moonlight, I seemed to see that the figure seemed to be carrying a plastic bag with something in it.
The white man walked on a straight village road, moving neither fast nor slow, walking at a constant speed.
He made it all the way to the end of the village road, and disappeared after being blocked by a stack of rice stalks.
I immediately got up and stood on the straw stack, but I couldn't see anything. The figure seemed to disappear under the cover of the rice straw stack.
I held the rice straw stack with one hand, jumped over the rice straw stack more than a person high in a very handsome posture, and finished it with a very handsome shape.
"Shhh...... My right leg hurts a little...... "I swallowed a mouthful of saliva, quickly stood up, and ran towards the place where the figure had disappeared last.
Under the moonlight, it was not dark in the village, and I ran all the way and stood on the straight village road.
Looking back, I could still see the stack of rice stalks that I had just crouched on.
I came here from the straw stack, and in two minutes, the white figure had disappeared.
I was absolutely not dazzled, and I did see a white figure. And I'm a detective, and I don't care about ghosts and gods.
My intuition told me that the white figure must be someone who had something to do with the case.
And the thing that the white figure was carrying in his hand must also be a very important piece of physical evidence in this case.
But I don't know who this white figure is, where it's coming from, where it's going, and what it's carrying.
But I know that a person would never show up on the road late at night wearing a white suit and carrying something.
I searched along the village road, but found nothing.
I came to the end of the village road, and a fork in the road appeared in front of me, one leading to the left front and one to the right.
"Where?" I looked at the fork in the road and took a deep breath.
Just as I was about to turn away, I suddenly saw something.
Under a red brick wall at the fork in the road in front of us, there is a pair of shoes.
I walked up quickly, turned on my phone's lighting, and in front of me was a pair of blue mesh sneakers with mud soles in front of me.
Reach for a shoe with the word 42 printed on the sole, proving that it is a pair of size 42 sneakers.
At the scene of the crime of Guan Xutong and Han Xingqiu, a pair of 42-size sneakers appeared.
"This is the shoe that the murderer wears? How did it end up here? I muttered confusedly.
These shoes are definitely new to the scene, and we didn't have them when we investigated in the village today, otherwise we would have found them.
Who is that white figure? He put these shoes here?
I looked up at the red brick wall in front of me, and I knew that the male owner's name was Chang Youde, the village accountant of Xinchun Village, and he also worked in the village committee. The day we just came, we met him.
These shoes were thrown by a white figure outside the courtyard gate of his house, is it a blame? Or is it a hint?
I settled down, picked up the sneakers, and took them back to the village committee office.
This is an important piece of physical evidence, and perhaps other clues can be found through the shoes.
At this moment, my phone rang, and it was a call from Xiao Xuan from the Technical Investigation Department......
