Chapter 82 Sophora flavescens and pork rib soup



Kan Xingguo, a prime suspect, was taken back to Anding Division for further investigation after his on-site questioning yielded no results.

His son, daughter-in-law, and grandson, as the complainants, were also taken to Anding District Court in separate vehicles to give their statements.

Li Nan specifically instructed Ma Jie, who was in charge of escorting the children, "It's getting late, take the family members to eat first, the children must be hungry!"

"OK!"

Watching them leave, Li Nan sighed helplessly. It seemed that only children could possibly finish this meal tonight.

My roast suckling pig!

The on-site examination of the deceased was basically completed, and Qin Wen called her colleagues from the Trace Evidence Department to help transport the body back.

Seeing his wife busy, Li Nan held back and ultimately didn't remind her to eat.

Although today's case is not as tragic as Zhang Qiqi's case, it still has a significant impact on Li Nan.

Remembering the braised pig's trotters with soybeans I had at Peng Yuanyuan's house not long ago, Li Nan thought to herself, "She must have done it on purpose!"

The trace evidence team left first, but Li Nan continued to lead the other colleagues in conducting on-site investigations.

It was already past 7 p.m., but no one suggested that we take care of our stomachs first.

The search of the crime scene was mainly to divert attention. Firstly, it was because of the disappointment of the May Day holiday being ruined, and secondly, many of the colleagues who had seen the deceased's appearance were now unable to eat.

After finally making it to eight o'clock, Li Nan didn't want to make things difficult for her colleagues any longer.

"That's it for the day, everyone go home and rest. We'll head back to the office tomorrow... or work overtime!"

After sealing the doors and windows, everyone was a little downcast and slowly followed Li Nan away.

As Li Nan went downstairs, she was still lamenting, "What bad luck today! Not only did I not get to eat roast suckling pig, but I wouldn't want to eat it even if you gave it to me now!"

When I arrived at the entrance on the first floor, the patrol officers downstairs were still there. They hadn't gone up to check the scene, and it seemed they had already taken care of their dinner.

Looking at the two of them, Li Nan felt a little envious.

"That's enough, everyone go back now!"

Li Nan waved his hand, and the two young police officers, upon hearing the long-awaited words, could hardly hide the relief on their faces.

Although a murder occurred, and although it took up a little of their holiday time, now that the Anti-Dang Division has taken action, their temporary patrol guard duties are no longer a problem.

The holiday should still be a holiday, and everything should proceed as planned!

The subtle expressions on their faces did not escape Li Nan's notice, and he simply smiled.

Different divisions of labor and different social roles are inevitable.

Because several groups of people had left beforehand, the police car that Li Nan had arrived in had already been driven away by Ma Jie.

Later, due to the limited parking spaces in the residential area, the police cars were all parked near the university.

Li Nan remembered that there was a good vegetarian restaurant near the school, so she could only make do with that place tonight.

Otherwise, if I go back to the Anding Division, I'll probably be working non-stop all night again. I'm too old for that!

Along the way, I felt inexplicably uneasy, and I didn't know why.

Lost in thought, I had unknowingly reached the entrance of the residential area.

The same familiar, warm-hearted old man was at the door. Seeing Li Nan walk out, Old Man He quickly walked over.

"Boss, you've had a long day and haven't eaten yet, have you? I have two meat buns here, have some to tide you over!"

Li Nan could hardly eat anything with meat on it now, let alone food meant for ordinary people.

Li Nan quickly declined, "Sir, thank you, but I'll eat at home!"

Old Man He twisted his body, seemingly wanting to say something but stopping himself.

Li Nan was quite adept at reading people's expressions. "Sir, is there something you're not comfortable saying?"

Old Man He pulled Li Nan aside. At the entrance of the security room, he looked around and saw only members of the An Ding Division; he didn't see any residents of the community.

Old Man He leaned close to Li Nan's ear and whispered, "Boss, I guess you won't be able to go back for the time being!"

"What's the meaning?"

"I heard that the person who had the accident today was Mr. Kan from Building 9? There was another old man in the community recently who had the same accident!"

"..."

After hearing Old Man He's "tattling," Li Nan finally understood the source of her discomfort!

I know that I really can't go back for the time being...

Blood Rose's murder warnings always result in more than one death!

There are four in Peach Blossom Garden, three in Jingyue Lake, so this time, it's impossible that there will only be one Kan Xingguo!

Old Man He told Li Nan the building number of the suspect, but this time, he was unwilling to take Li Nan with him.

"We're all from the same neighborhood, so I'll just say it quietly. Don't let anyone else know it was me!"

Li Nan could understand Old Man He's concerns. If something really happened, he would have something to brag about, but if it was just a false alarm, he would probably lose his position as the goalkeeper.

Spreading rumors is not a good habit!

After asking for the detailed building number and address, as well as how to get there, Li Nan waved to Yang Bairong, who was not far away.

Just now, the other police officers had already gone to the Polytechnic University to find a car, but Yang Bairong felt that a gatekeeper would not be waiting for Li Nan here for no reason.

On the way to Building 14, Li Nan first gave Xiong Sifu, who was still stationed at Anding Division, a heads-up, saying that the colleagues from the Tracking Department might have to come again later.

Yang Bairong also tactfully told his colleagues who went to pick up the car to meet at Building 14, as there was still something going on!

Soon, Li Nan and his companion arrived at the bottom of Unit 2, Building 14.

At this time, colleagues who went to Caiyun Polytechnic to pick up their cars also arrived here.
