Chapter 18: Zou Ping
Qishui hasn't rained for several days.
Accumulation of heat heat.
The weather is boring again.
Entrance to the police station.
Yuan Xiaochuan shrunk under the shade of a tree, his greasy hair on top of it, and a ring of yellowed sweat stains on his crumpled collar.
"It's out. ”
Next to him, Liu Weidong pushed him.
He glanced up, shoved the last cigarette butt into the mud of the flower bed, stared at the bloodshot eyes, and wiped his face.
"I really don't have the face to see you. ”
Li Changan shook his head.
After he settled Xiaohui, he left the matter behind him and wandered around.
Unexpectedly, yesterday, the police station on Qishui's side called him and said that some details of the case needed to be reconfirmed. I came over early this morning, only to find that the ironclad case has been repeated!
"What the hell is going on?"
Yuan Xiaochuan sighed and told what happened during this time, and Liu Weidong also made some additions.
The Taoist priest just sighed when he heard it.
I thought that what was dug out of the stone coffin was a vengeful ghost, but I didn't expect it to be rotten bones.
The entrance of this police station is not a place to talk about things, and the three of them went to Liu Weidong's house as usual.
............
"Lao Liu, why are you at the police station today?"
"They said there was something new in my case and told me to go in the morning. ”
"How?"
"It's still the same way it was. ”
"Isn't this tossing people?!" Yuan Xiaochuan snorted a few times, a little indignant, "I was also called over today and reprimanded, found some trivialities, sprayed Lao Tzu's face with saliva, and Lao Li...... Heh, what day is it, let's get together and toss together?"
He was in a depressed mood, chattering all the way, and when he arrived at the ground, he rested his mouth, looked upstairs a few times, and said to Liu Weidong:
"Huh, it's so quiet, is the sun coming out of the west, or didn't you wake up today?"
A few days ago, when the case was going well, Zou Ping also suppressed her temper and was too lazy to rub shoulders with the "lackeys". But now that the case has been repeated, I don't know whether the neighbors are shaking up again, or Zou Ping's old state has sprouted, and this residential building on the street has returned to the days of saliva and scolding.
Right now, it's just past noon.
Eating and drinking, the sun is shiny, and the mood is depressed, which is a good time to start a scolding war to relieve the fatigue of the afternoon.
But now it is an abnormal Ansheng.
Liu Weidong knew it was a joke, and he didn't say anything.
"I've been cooking lotus seed soup for my mother-in-law for the past few days. ”
He raised the ingredients in his hand, which he had picked up in the vegetable market in a hurry. One morning, I went from the vegetable market to the police station, and then from the police station to the door of the house, and it was not too troublesome.
He laughed so hard that his eyebrows flew up.
"Defeated!"
The three of them joked a few words and went upstairs together.
But when I got to the floor, I was surprised to find that today was not as peaceful as I expected.
The security door of Liu Weidong's house was wide open, and a large group of people gathered in front of the door, whispering to each other, like a group of mosquitoes buzzing.
Seeing the three of them coming up, the noise suddenly stopped.
Li Changan's eyes were poisonous, and he looked at the crowd, and some people were hurriedly putting away their mobile phones.
I suddenly had some bad premonitions in my heart.
............
The three of them hurriedly rushed in.
When I arrived at the door, I felt a sigh in my heart.
I saw that the big yellow dog was crawling motionless at the door, but its belly was slightly undulating.
Look inside the house again.
The room was a mess.
The chairs were knocked down, the drawers and cabinets were turned open, and the mess was scattered all over the floor.
And Zou Ping was lying in this mess.
Her eyes were glazed over, and she didn't react at all to the arrival of the three, like a soulless puppet. A pale face stared at the doorway, and dry tears and solidified snot could be seen. On the lean body, the ribs are exposed to the air.
Yes.
She has no outer clothes on her, or she has been stripped of her underwear and underwear by some people.
The only arm that could move was handcuffed behind his back, a mass of rags stuffed in his mouth, and tape wrapped around several times.
"Ping'er!"
Liu Weidong's screams frightened the two Taoist priests.
Yuan Xiaochuan hurriedly dispersed the crowd, Li Changan found a sheet, and Liu Weidong had already rushed forward, carefully removed the tape and rag, and held Zou Ping in his arms.
Touching his back, he comforted softly:
"Okay, okay, I'll be back. ”
Long.
Zou Ping's sluggish face was a little angry.
She looked around, then at the three of them, her voice frighteningly hoarse.
She said:
"Get out. ”
Yuan Xiaochuan didn't hear clearly, but went up and asked: "How can this be ......?"
Halfway through the conversation.
"Get out!"
Sharpness and hysteria.
But Yuan Xiaochuan, from a criminal police officer to a traffic policeman, relied on a hard-hearted heart and an elm head.
I didn't ask why I was going to go.
Liu Weidong looked at him pleadingly, and the Taoist priest sighed and dragged him out.
There were two people missing in the room, and it was quiet for a while.
Liu Weidong didn't ask anything, just silently helped his wife put on her clothes and pants and helped her into a wheelchair, but after doing all this, what he was waiting for was ......
"You go out too. ”
Liu Weidong's expression became bitter, and he called softly.
"Wife. ”
But these two words actually made the strong shell that Zou Ping had been pretending to have on his face collapse.
"Which one is your wife?!" she cried, "you don't come out and call me 'wife' when those lackeys scold me, you don't come out and call me 'wife' when they pick up my clothes, and you don't come out and call me 'wife' when those turtles (mongrel) shoot me?!"
Her emotions became more and more intense, and she even raised her hand and slapped Lao Liu.
Liu Weidong closed his eyes, but he didn't dodge.
However.
The slap landed on the face, but it was unexpectedly light.
Liu Weidong opened his eyes blankly, but he was greeted by his wife's sad face. The tears dried up in his eyes were red, as if they were about to soak in blood.
"Weidong. ”
Zou Ping pleaded.
"Please, you go out first, let me be alone for a while. ”
Liu Weidong opened his mouth, but didn't say anything after all, only hooked his head and walked out of the door, covering the door with a small crack left, and then sat silently in front of the door.
He sat from day to night.
Until......
"Lao Liu. ”
Yuan Xiaochuan sighed and came up to convince him.
"Let's go get something to eat. ”
Liu Weidong didn't say a word, just shook his head.
"I know you're worried about Zou Ping. Li Changan then persuaded again, "In this way, I will help you guard here, and you will eat a few bites of food before." ”
Liu Weidong still just shook his head.
At this time, Yuan Xiaochuan was a little annoyed.
"What's the use of you two doing this? Things can't be solved, don't go hungry first!"
Liu Weidong still shook his head.
But this time......
"Weidong. ”
"Huh?"
It was useless to persuade outside the door, but a call inside the door made Liu Weidong feel agitated, and he stood up suddenly.
But maybe he sat for too long, his body shook, and he almost fell down, but fortunately, Li Changan was quick and stepped forward to help.
But where can Liu Weidong care about this, he only looks through the crack in the door, looking into the room, like a primary school student going to the office to find a teacher, eager and scared.
"Wife, you call me?"
"Hmm. ”
Inside the door, Zou Ping answered.
"Come in, I'm hungry. ”
"Good! good!"
Liu Weidong laughed and happily pushed the door in.
"Wife, what are you eating? I'll cook you your favorite braised pork, mapo tofu and steamed eggs!"
"Nope. ”
Zou Ping behaved very calmly, as if the shame and anger during the day was just a dream, and even changed her clothes and washed her face.
"Just drink a bowl of porridge. ”
Where would Liu Weidong not follow, cooked a pot of lotus seed porridge, and gave Zou Ping a bowl.
Then, Zou Ping said that he was sleepy, so he hurriedly pushed Zou Ping into the bedroom.
During this period, Yuan Xiaochuan wanted to ask questions several times, but was blocked by the Taoist priest, and it was not until Liu Weidong coaxed his wife to sleep and began to clean up the house again that he finally couldn't bear it.
"Lao Liu, do you have something to hide from me?"
Liu Weidong was stunned for a moment, and subconsciously retorted:
"No, I don't. ”
At the end, for fear that Yuan Xiaochuan would not believe it, he added another sentence.
"How is that possible?!"
It's a pity that his demeanor is so flustered that he can't even hide it from Li Changan, let alone Yuan Xiaochuan, the current traffic policeman who was born as a criminal investigator.
"Liu Weidong!"
Yuan Xiaochuan's eyes were a little aggressive.
"I just looked around the house. Although the room was turned into a mess, there were mobile phones, wallets and other belongings, so the gangsters were not trying to get money; the furniture, appliances, doors and windows were all intact, and even Zou Ping did not have many traces of being beaten, so it was definitely not a revenge!"
"In addition, all the cabinets and drawers have basically been rummaged through, and the result is obvious, the gangsters are clearly premeditated to find something in your house!"
"Honestly, what the hell?!"
Liu Weidong put down the work in his hand and looked at the bedroom.
"Let's go out and talk. ”
............
As usual, the barbecue stand downstairs.
As usual, one table of barbecue and two beers.
"What?!"
Yuan Xiaochuan's suddenly raised voice almost suppressed the hustle and bustle of the street, attracting the attention of passers-by. He immediately realized his gaffe and lowered his voice, but he still couldn't bear to poke the table with his hand.
"You didn't tell me about such an important matter?!"
Liu Weidong reluctantly defended.
"Xiao Kong won't let you tell you?"
"He doesn't believe me?
Yuan Xiaochuan is a dog.
Just now Liu Weidong trayed out the USB flash drive, and he knew what the gangsters were looking for, and why Zou Ping was stripped of her clothes, it turned out that she had been hiding the USB flash drive close to her.
Entertainment club surveillance video!
What a depth charge.
Even if it can't be used directly on the case, it can muddy the water and attract the attention of higher levels and even the central government. But because of the thoughts of these two people who are secretly rubbing together, the result is ......
Yuan Xiaochuan made the final rescue:
"Don't you tell me you don't have a backup?"
But what he saw was that Lao Liu had shrunk his neck in a disdainful manner.
"You ......"
He was tempted to curse.
But.
"Bang!"
The familiar sound of falling objects sounded behind him.
Yuan Xiaochuan's first reaction was that Zou Ping began to throw things downstairs again.
It's just that this time the voice is much louder than usual, didn't she throw the big yellow dog down? Where did she get so much strength?
He turned his head angrily to look.
"Zou is paralyzed, you have ...... again"
The words came to an abrupt end.
In his stunned gaze, Zou Ping lay on her back on the cracked floor tiles, bright blood rendering from under her.
It's a dazzling red.
