Chapter 361 A man knocked on her door
Shen Qingran carefully observed the woman's expression.
"I don't know either. Mu Qiu asked me to write to you with your address. I even sent you a letter two months ago."
"You didn't receive it?"
The woman took the cloth bag off the handlebars of the bicycle.
"letter?"
"I know someone wrote to her before, but that was last year. I haven't received any letters since Mu Qiu stopped living with me."
Shen Qingran listened to her and took note of all the differences between what Zhaodi had said and what she had said.
"Come in and sit down. I'll go get some tea."
Sanhei and Shen Qingran both looked around the room.
It didn't look like anything special, the house was kept very clean, and although the things were old, nothing was particularly broken.
It seems that the conditions are just those of an ordinary family.
The aunt next door said that her family moved to the city and sent her children to the best school.
These are where the money is spent.
Not everyone can win the lottery.
It’s not that people can’t make a fortune unexpectedly, but making a fortune unexpectedly usually involves using some informal means.
Just as Shen Qingran was thinking about it, she saw a woman coming in from outside holding tea.
"Comrade, have some tea."
Shen Qingran and Sanhei sat down, and the woman ran to the short cabinet and pulled out a small box.
"These are Mu Qiu's things."
"The child lived here well, but suddenly one day he said he wanted to move out."
"She's already grown up, so I can't stop her. I can only let her go."
"After a while, I saw that she went to school during the day and set up a stall at night. She lived a good life, so I felt relieved."
I hadn't seen her for a long time a few days ago, and I thought she had gone back to her hometown or to Ning City.
Shen Qingran looked at the box the woman brought over, opened it and saw that it was filled with some hair accessories for girls and some skin care products.
There's nothing special about it.
"So when was the last time you saw her?"
Woman: "Two months ago, I went to pick up my child from school and happened to pass by her stall, so we chatted for a while."
"There were quite a few people on Gaudi Street that day. I guess they all still remember it."
Shen Qingran asked a bunch of random questions.
The woman stood up.
"I'm sorry, comrade. I'm preparing to move these days and don't have much time to chat."
"This is all I know about Mu Qiu. As for the rest, I won't know even if you ask me again."
Shen Qingran stood up and smiled. "Okay, thank you for your help, Auntie. We'll leave first."
Sanhei followed Shen Qingran out of the yard and walked outside.
"Sister-in-law, there seems to be something wrong with this person."
Shen Qingran lowered his head, "Yes, a little bit."
Sanhei has also served in the military. Although his position was not particularly high, he still had a lot to learn.
I also followed the leader to catch many spies and secret agents.
In this situation, being a small police officer is enough.
"What do you think is wrong with her?"
Sanhei crossed his arms, "Although this woman never said anything, she was so thoughtful, as if everything was prepared."
That’s right, it’s this feeling. Shen Qingran has the same feeling. He has had this feeling since he first met her.
Shen Qingran sighed.
Sanhei comforted her, "Sister-in-law, don't worry. You are unfamiliar with the place and you are a foreigner, so you can't find out anything useful. Don't worry, leave it to me. I will investigate."
Shen Qingran nodded. This was the only solution left.
Shen Qingran took the bus back to the guesthouse, but Sanhei got off the bus halfway, saying that he wanted to find a friend.
It should be to help me investigate the news.
Shen Qingran returned to the guesthouse and sat down to restore every question he had been asked today, word for word, as best he could.
Looking at the two "confessions" with many discrepancies, Shen Qingran fell into deep thought.
Shen Qingran originally thought that something had happened to Zhao Muqiu, such as being arrested, or beating someone up for some other reason.
I didn't expect that the person would just disappear for no apparent reason.
If it were modern times, she would have suspected that this person had been tricked into giving her a kidney.
Sexy croupier, the kind that deals cards online.
Cheated?
Was I really cheated?
Shen Qingran was worried.
In this day and age, if someone is truly missing, it is extremely difficult to find them.
After thinking about it, Shen Qingran carried her bag and went to the place where Zhao Muqiu rented a house, which was not far from Gaodi Street.
Shen Qingran looked at the honeycomb-like tube building, which was exactly the same as what she had seen on TV before.
Zhaodi said that Mu Qiu lived in the third room on the left on the second floor.
Shen Qingran found it without much effort.
Looking at the locked door, Shen Qingran looked around and saw a statue of Mazu on the door, so she walked over and knocked.
After all, people who believe in Mazu will not lie casually.
"Boom boom boom."
After knocking three times and no one opened the door, Shen Qingran was about to leave.
The door creaked open.
An old man poked his head out and Shen Qingran quickly turned back.
"Who are you looking for?"
Shen Qingran asked quickly, "Hello, old comrade, I want to ask you about someone."
The old man was very enthusiastic. "Who do you want to ask, young comrade? There is no one living here that I don't know."
Shen Qingran: "Yes, old man, I want to ask about that house, the one across from you. There's a girl living there, do you have any impression of her?"
The old man laughed, "You are talking about that little girl named Xiao Zhao, right?"
Shen Qingran nodded repeatedly, "It's her, do you know her?"
The old man smiled and said, "I know her. She's a good kid. She usually gives away any leftovers to our neighbors for free. She's very generous."
"By the way, you are her friend?"
Shen Qingran nodded immediately, "Yes, I am her sister. I wrote to her a few days ago but she didn't reply. I was worried that something happened to her."
The old man: "If anything happens, no matter what, we all heard that she married the other side."
"Um?"
Seeing that she was confused, the old man said, "I heard that she found a rich man, so she is going to marry in Rongcheng."
Married to Hong Kong?
Shen Qingran was stunned.
"Maybe this kid will contact you after a while."
Shen Qingran quickly asked, "Did she say that she was going to marry in Rongcheng?"
The old man scratched his head and said, "Oh, yes, who said this? I heard them chatting downstairs one day."
"Oh, I guess. It's pretty close. Maybe you don't know about this or Xiao Zhao hasn't had the chance to tell you yet."
In this day and age, communications have not yet reached the level of a global village as they will be in the future.
Writing letters and sending telegrams are still relatively common, while phone calls are less common.
After all, the phone bill is so expensive.
Shen Qingran: "Grandpa, has Mu Qiu ever had any conflicts with anyone while living here?"
The old man thought for a moment and said, "There is no conflict. The girl is very polite and always speaks sweetly to us. We are all old neighbors living here."
“Everyone helps each other.”
