At 3:40 in the morning, Ji Feng and Jian Jing knocked on the door of reporter Chai.
Reporter Chai was very calm and asked sleepily, "It's the middle of the night, what can't you say now?" Jian Jing
went straight to the point, "I'm tired and don't want to analyze the case again. Hand over the stockings and plead guilty."
Reporter Chai was stunned by her overly straightforwardness, but fortunately she kept her composure and pretended to be surprised, "What nonsense are you talking about? The person was not strangled to death, do you think I'm stupid?" A little anger appeared on her face, "You are slandering people with empty words, don't go too far, be careful or I will complain."
Jian Jing: "Starch."
Reporter Chai was shocked again, and her heart was no longer calm, and she was thinking: Do they really know? Are they lying to her? If she reveals the truth, she will fall into a trap. But at this point, it doesn't seem like a random shot. Should we go all out and destroy the evidence?
Her mind raced, and she glanced outside the door. Her shadow was reflected on the wall of the corridor, like a ghost.
Without hesitation, she made a decision immediately, turned around and rushed to the window, pulled off the stockings that were drying, and at the same time touched the lighter on the table, and lit the flame with a "click".
"Put it down! It's dangerous!" Ji Feng rushed forward and snatched the lighter.
Reporter Chai immediately let go, rushed forward and hugged his waist: "Run!"
A shadow flashed outside the door, with a strong figure and extremely fast speed. It was Zhu Yong who had been hiding outside just now.
He is a teacher, but a physical education teacher. He has been training for many years. Not only can he wield a weapon to kill Jia Yue, but his leg muscles are also very developed and explosive. He ran downstairs in the blink of an eye.
Ji Feng was blocked by reporter Chai and couldn't catch up. He said helplessly: "Where can you run to at night... Teacher Jian?! Don't!"
He was shocked by Jian Jing.
She opened the window, turned over and jumped down.
Although the second floor is not high, trained people will not be injured. Even if they are not trained, they will only have fractures at most, but there have been unlucky people who broke their necks.
Especially in the middle of the night, there is no light outside, and it is raining. Jumping down is not a joke.
My heart really stopped.
But it was too late to stop him, and Jian Jing's situation was not as bad as he thought.
Seeing Zhu Yong running away, she hesitated whether to chase him, but considering that the other party was a trained adult male with strong explosive power and speed, if one chased and the other fled into the mountains, an accident was very likely to happen.
So, she boldly took another plan.
Turn on the special reward given by the "Secret of Pudding" mission - "White Kitten State".
What can happen if a cat jumps down from the second floor?
What obstacles can a cat have when moving at night?
No fear.
She felt as if she was carried by a breeze and landed on the ground nimbly. The dim vision became clear, and one could clearly see the shaking of the door and the movement of the glass window of the restaurant being opened.
The man with a broken bone climbed out of the window.
Jian Jing stood outside the window and looked at him, holding the anti-wolf spray in her hand, and then... "hiss".
The irritating gas sprayed out like a column of water.
Zhu Yong's eyes and nasal cavity were irritated, tears were secreted, and he coughed continuously.
Ji Feng ran downstairs "thump thump thump", first glanced at Jian Jing who was waiting for him, then handcuffed Zhu Yong and asked unhappily: "Teacher Jian, I want to criticize you, don't scare people if there is nothing to do, you're almost scared to death."
"Do I look like someone who's looking for death?" She rolled her eyes.
Ji Feng thought about it and felt that he couldn't answer this question. He simply pretended not to hear it and pulled Zhu Yong up: "Let's go. Don't make the same mistakes as the people you hate. Make atonement honestly."
Zhu Yong was silent.
"Who is that to you?" Jian Jing couldn't help asking.
He said, "My sister."
The last piece of the puzzle was filled in by the person concerned.
A few days ago, he returned to his hometown with his sister and his sister's friend, reporter Chai. The brother and sister were going home to attend the wedding, and reporter Chai wanted to experience the wedding customs in the countryside.
However, there are unexpected events. The evening of the day before yesterday, his sister went out and never came back.
He and reporter Chai searched all the way and finally found the already cold body on the roadside.
This place is remote and there are few outsiders. They asked their acquaintances and soon learned that a group of students passed by, and the owner of the gas station also said that there was a new dent on the front of their car.
The accident happened on a country road, and there were no cameras, so it was difficult to convict. Zhu Yong decided to find the murderer himself, and after hearing what Chai said, he also agreed that the murderer should not be let go.
The two asked along the way and finally found the whereabouts of the students and followed them to this hotel.
Originally, the two did not decide to kill anyone, but Jia Yue kept saying that he had hit a zombie and told people about it as if it were some strange rumor, which aroused their anger and hatred.
They decided to give him a taste of his own medicine.
Reporter Chai planned the whole process. She deliberately created doubts to attract attention to herself, but the real decisive blow was completed by the low-key Zhu Yong.
They were lucky. The heavy rain blocked their way. The man with the ball head also poisoned the deceased, making him unable to resist and knocked him unconscious. When the police came, all the evidence was solved.
But they didn't expect that two other unlucky people came last night.
A policeman and a writer of mystery novels.
No matter how many tricks there are, the truth will eventually come out.
The next morning, like the end of all murder cases, when the criminal was caught, the sky cleared up.
The local police took all the guests away.
The reporter, the man with broken bones, and the man with a ball head are suspected of murder. The buzz cut and the yellow-haired man are also being questioned about the hit-and-run incident. The high-ponytailed man has to go to the hospital for an X-ray. Jian Jing and Ji Feng have to go to the police station to give their statements. It's
really a one-pot affair.
After the zombie movie, this hotel can be used to make another suspense movie.
It was already noon when they came out of the police station.
Jian Jing and Ji Feng found a small restaurant to have a meal. Fortunately, the food was good, so they drove to their destination as planned.
On the way, Jian Jing was a little suspicious: "Don't let us get there and find that the person is gone."
Ji Feng: "...Reality can't be so dramatic. We just decided to visit on a whim. Just in case, I didn't tell you the place. Who is so well-informed?"
"I've actually seen one." Jian Jing remembered Zong Ye and felt a little concerned. "He appears and disappears mysteriously, as if he knows everything."
Ji Feng said, "Don't worry. Such a person will never be bribed by a murderer."
He was right. At
three o'clock in the afternoon, they arrived at the place where the case took place in 2009, a medium-sized city. More than
ten years later, the community where the crime occurred had been demolished, and the neighbors were scattered all over the place. Ji Feng took some effort to find the other party's address.
To review, in the case of the murder of the Zeng family's grandparents, an insurance salesman came to the house many times, and the residents living opposite the Zeng family had seen him.
The person they wanted to meet was the neighbor opposite, surnamed Wang, 56 years old this year, retired, and taken to live in his own home by his son.
When the two arrived, Aunt Wang was alone at home, watching TV very lonely. Seeing the guests, she warmly poured tea and water and greeted them: "Sit down, don't be polite, I'll pour you some water."
Ji Feng declined twice, but failed, so he had to go to the kitchen to help, so as not to burn the old man's food.
Taking this opportunity, he quietly observed the house. There were traces of four people living in the house. In addition to the old man, there was a couple and a granddaughter. There was a photo of the family of four on the cabinet in the entrance.
All the old people who have grandchildren in their own families usually have a problem.
"Are you married? Not yet, young man, you have to hurry up." In the kitchen, Aunt Wang kept talking and imparting life experience.
Ji Feng also developed the ability to respond: "Yes, yes, yes, yes."
His attitude was particularly sincere and his tone was particularly respectful.
Aunt Wang was so happy that she was more willing to cooperate with them. As soon as she sat down, she took the initiative to talk: "Has the Zeng family's case not been found yet? They are miserable. How could such a good family be so unlucky?"
Ordinary people may not encounter such a tragic case in their lifetime, so she was deeply impressed and still remembered the Zeng family vividly.
"It's a pity for their family." Aunt Wang sighed, "The grandson is very smart, and he got full marks in the exams. If he were still alive, he should have gone to college this year. Alas..."
Ji Feng listened very seriously and agreed from time to time.
When Aunt Wang said she was tired, he handed her a glass of water and said slowly: "I would like you to recall whether any strangers appeared in the few days or month before the incident?"
Aunt Wang was not very old and had a good memory. She immediately said: "Yes, I told the police before. An insurance salesman came."
"What impressed you about him?" Ji Feng asked.
Aunt Wang slowly fell into memories: "The feeling this young man gave people... I can't explain it, it's just different. That time when I was going home from work, I happened to meet him, and he helped me carry things. Let me tell you, he is very good at talking. I was in a bad mood that day, and I talked to him for a few words, and I felt much better, so I had a particularly good impression of him. Later, when I saw him, I wanted to buy an insurance policy for him, just to help him."
"Then what?"
"I wanted to buy an accident insurance for my son, but he said..." Aunt Wang's eyes revealed a strange and complicated look, "I should buy it for my husband."
Jane's eyes changed slightly.
Before coming, out of dramatic consideration, she specifically asked about Aunt Wang Jifeng's situation, and the answer was unexpected.
Although Aunt Wang seems to be very happy now, she suffered great misfortune ten years ago.
The husband is an alcoholic and domestic abuser.
Logically, Aunt Wang should leave this man as soon as possible and get a divorce. However, life is not easy for everyone. Due to various reasons and concerns, she could only endure it.
Such a family is certainly not the target of the scarred man.
But the scarred man's words are very interesting, revealing a hint of clues.
"Excuse me, can you repeat the conversation at that time to us?" Jian Jing asked sincerely, and quietly opened the charm card.
With her temperament strengthened, Aunt Wang's eyes softened when she looked at her, and her vigilance was reduced. She hesitated and said, "It's nothing to tell you, he didn't say much."
Twelve years ago, in the stairwell of the old community, a young man in a suit said, "Sister, you are still young. As long as you are in good health, you don't need to buy insurance. But your husband..."
His eyes were meaningful: "Maybe you should buy an accident insurance for him."
Aunt Wang was startled at the time, and an inexplicable evil thought quietly emerged. She didn't dare to think about it carefully, and perfunctorily said, "My husband is in good health."
"Yes, but there are always accidents." His lips curled up, and his words were like the devil's ravings, "If, I mean if something happens, the compensation is enough for you and your children... to live a different life."
Her eyelids twitched: "Is it, is it?"
"That's the role of insurance, isn't it." The young man bowed slightly, "Of course, I'm just talking casually, I wish you and your husband good health."
His voice became normal and earnest again, as if he was just an enthusiastic ordinary salesman.
But Aunt Wang never forgot him again.
