Chapter 277 [(*^▽^*)]
While secretly observing these people through the mechanical spider, Lin Leyou was thinking about how to provide clues to the police without making a sound.
In this day and age, surveillance is not very common. When the police want to investigate a case, they still rely on interviews and investigations. But how long does that take?
Even if they eventually manage to find the abandoned factory, these people will probably have vanished without a trace. Although Lin Leyou felt unlucky, always encountering various troubles every time he returned to the real world, he still wanted to get involved in this matter a little.
However, we still need to think carefully about this approach.
It wasn't too late when he left the police station, since he had stayed there to describe the man's appearance and help them draw a portrait of the suspect.
After Lin Leyou came out, he looked around and did not go back. Instead, he headed towards the abandoned factory. Of course, he was not actually going to the factory. His destination was a well-known restaurant on this road.
He planned to go there to eat first, and think of a solution while he ate. A solution can be found by people. Can a living person be suffocated by holding in their pee?
These three people definitely have blood on their hands. If it were before, Lin Leyou would never have been able to tell, but now he has killed quite a few people in the Infinite World.
He can tell at a glance whether someone has committed murder or not. He was a little surprised when he was by the lake, thinking he had made a mistake, but now it seems he was right.
Entering the restaurant, Lin Leyou chose a corner seat by the window and casually ordered a few dishes he liked. Then, he leisurely took out his phone and pretended to play on it, but in reality, he was observing the three people through the snow spider to see when they would escape.
Around the time the food was served, the three people over there also started to move.
The two who had been playing cards just now finished their game and walked over to the person who was still in a daze. "Hey, what's wrong with you? You're so absent-minded as soon as you get back. Did you see a pretty girl?"
His expression was still a bit off, but it definitely wasn't because of the beautiful woman.
Seeing his expression, the other two probably knew that something bad must have happened. "Tell us, what happened? We'll help you analyze it."
He then stammered out the story of what had happened by the lake: "He hit the ground with the back of his head and started convulsing on the spot. I was terrified and ran away..."
They were both a little surprised, but quickly calmed down. "What are you afraid of? He's not dead yet, is he? Even if he were dead, so what? Do you think they can catch you? Anyway, nobody knows you. You should run now, run to the north, or to the west or south, it doesn't matter. How are they going to catch you?"
He blinked, then thought about it and realized, "Yeah... I can just run away, right? No one saw my face anyway, I..."
As he was saying this, he suddenly remembered that before going to see the old man, he had tried to scam a young man out of money, but the young man didn't fall for it.
And now this man was face to face with him. He knew what he looked like, and he could see right through him!
"No, someone saw me. I went to him first, but he didn't fall for it. He saw my whole face. Then I went to find that old man, and he was not far behind me. He must have seen everything. He saw that it was me who did it, and he even saw my face!"
The two men were speechless. They still urged him to run away, saying, "Even so, you still have to run. Do you think Liu is just going to wait here to get caught?"
"If you're going to wait to be arrested, you might as well turn yourself in; you might be able to get lenient treatment."
He tearfully said, "If that old bastard dies, even if I turn myself in, I won't get lenient treatment. Murderers pay with their lives. I'm so young, I don't want to die. Why should I be buried with an old man?"
"Then run away! What are you yelling about here? Go to some remote, desolate place, who will be able to find you?! Just come out again when things have calmed down."
"He's just an old codger, right? He's dead, so what? He's so old, he should have died a long time ago anyway. Besides... it's not like we haven't killed people before. You've even been with us before. Why are you such a coward now?"
"That...that...that was several years ago, wasn't it? I'd almost forgotten about it."
They smiled and exchanged a glance after hearing this.
"Forgot? Good that you forgot. It means you have a talent for this. Some people would be terrified the first time and never forget it, having nightmares for the rest of their lives. It seems you have the potential to be a bad guy. So, are you going to run away or not?"
"If we're going to run, we'll run together, that way the three of us can help each other."
And so, the three decided to run away together. Lin Leyou remembered everything they said, but he still didn't do anything. While eating, he had Spider follow them to see where they would run.
If I'm lucky and it's on my way, I might run into him while I'm walking by. Then I can just call the police. Sigh... he just loves to worry about things like that.
Lin Leyou picked up his chopsticks to eat. He needed to eat first before doing his business, so he could achieve twice the result with half the effort. He wouldn't have the energy if he was hungry.
The three first left the abandoned factory base and came to a small house about one kilometer behind the abandoned factory. The small house was a mud-brick house with a collapsed roof and looked like it had been abandoned for a long time.
They searched inside for a while, then started digging in a corner, and finally dug out a sealed plastic bucket from the soil. After opening the plastic bucket, they saw the banknotes inside.
The money was in small, scattered pieces, including ten-yuan notes, twenty-yuan notes, and of course, many fifty-yuan and one-hundred-yuan notes. The three of them sat there and started dividing the money, one note for each person.
This bucket of money looks like a lot, but when divided among the three people, each person only gets a little over four thousand, which doesn't seem like much.
Wait a minute, isn't this a pretty lot of money? After all, this was decades ago.
The plastic bucket that had been holding the money was now empty, having fulfilled its purpose, and was carelessly discarded by the three people in this abandoned house.
The three of them, with the money in their pockets, continued walking outwards, retracing the route the man had taken back, until they reached the main road.
The three of them didn't know where to go, so after discussing it, they decided to eat first, since all three of them were starving.
The result was...
Lin Leyou was halfway through her meal when she saw three very familiar-looking people walk into her restaurant. Was it really just a coincidence?
Lin Leyou never expected this outcome, but since it had come to him, he didn't need to worry about it anymore.
What Lin Leyou didn't expect was that after looking around the store, the three people finally chose the table to his left.
But thinking about it, it makes sense. His position is in a corner, so he doesn't attract much attention. But in this way, the other party can see him anytime, anywhere.
Lin Leyou propped his head up with one hand and looked at the road outside the glass, turning his head away from them. However, he could see through the mechanical spider that they were always subtly observing him.
He should be glad he took off his coat and left it aside when he came, so he looks just like he did when he was by the lake.
While they were focused on eating, Lin Leyou seized the opportunity to get up and slip away. After paying the bill, he hid in a corner outside, watching the people inside, and quickly took out his phone to call the police.
"Yes, it's me... I need to call the police, right there..."
The police station is really close to here. Lin Leyou walked here after leaving the police station, and it took less than half an hour. The police arrived in just a few minutes by car.
When the police arrived, the three people eating in the restaurant, feeling guilty, immediately got up and ran away, without caring whether they had paid or not.
As a result, the restaurant staff and manager worked together to stop him. It was only because there weren't many customers at the moment that they were able to stop him in time.
Upon seeing this, Lin Leyou quickly pointed to the people inside, "Those are the three of them! They're trying to escape! One of them is the one who committed the crime by the lake before, and the other two seem to be accomplices!"
When the police saw the three suspects struggling to run away, they rushed over as fast as they could, pinned them all to the ground, and handcuffed them.
Before taking them away, I made them pay the bill; you absolutely cannot eat without paying.
Lin Leyou was taken back to the police station shortly after leaving, though he wasn't a suspect.
"Officer, hello there, we meet again?"
The police officer who had just taken his statement appeared in front of Lin Leyou again. "Yes, we meet again. I didn't expect you to be so lucky."
Lin Leyou was also surprised, "I didn't expect that I was just going out for a meal. This person was so bold as to come out to eat so openly after committing the crime."
Not to mention Lin Leyou, even the police didn't expect this suspect to be so audacious.
They started taking a statement again, and Lin Leyou added some more details.
"I was sitting right next to them, so I didn't dare look at them. After all, I saw the suspect, and he saw me too. I was afraid he would recognize me and run away, so I only vaguely heard them talking before I quickly left the restaurant."
What did they say?
Lin Leyou pretended to recall, "I didn't hear it very clearly, it seemed to be something like... It's not the first time, what are you afraid of? If you're such a coward, I won't consider you my brother!"
The police wrote down every single word he said, without omitting a single one.
"It's not the first time, is it?"
Lin Leyou nodded, "Yes, that's what they said. It seemed like they were comforting the suspect. I don't know anything else. I was afraid he would find out, so I didn't listen to anything more."
