Chapter 33 Investigation 3
Everyone wanted to sympathize with the family of four, but they didn't know what to do.
The police officer took the opportunity to show the photo of the woman in front of the two elderly people. After seeing the photo, the old man's legs went weak and he fell to the ground. The baby in the old man's arms was caught by the police officer with quick eyes and hands as he fell. Otherwise, if the baby fell from such a height, it would be a big problem.
Looking at the old man lying on the ground, the police officer asked hurriedly: "Are you okay?"
The old man shook his head slightly, and after a long while, he finally recovered. Several people helped him into the house. The police officer noticed that this family also had surveillance cameras installed. He immediately asked, "Does your house have surveillance cameras too?"
The old lady looked in the direction of the surveillance camera and nodded, "Yes, I installed it because I have children at home."
"Excuse me, we would like to see the surveillance footage from last night."
The monitoring software was definitely not in the old man's hands, but the daughter-in-law's phone was at home. The police officer took the phone and asked, "Does anyone know the password?"
The little girl immediately walked over and unlocked the password after pressing a few numbers on her phone. The police praised her, "Little sister, you are so smart."
When one of the police officers was investigating the surveillance footage, the two elderly people also asked, "My daughter-in-law, she, she."
"The person is dead, please accept my condolences." There was another round of wailing, and after the wailing, the group took the time to talk about what happened yesterday.
When they heard that their daughter-in-law died with a man, they immediately asked, "Is it the man on the 7th floor? He's obviously not a good guy. I've told her many times that these two were always together, but she won't listen."
"Do you two know that these two are together?"
The two elderly people nodded reluctantly, and the grandmother said, "My son is dead, so I can't let my daughter-in-law stay single for the rest of her life. So I didn't say anything about her finding someone else, but the man on the 7th floor is married, so we don't agree. We've had a few conflicts, but I haven't seen them together in this period. I didn't expect..., oh."
The two of them didn't break up at all.
At this time, the surveillance footage from last night was retrieved. The footage was very clear. The woman went out because the man from 701 came over and called her out. Judging from the man's expression and the fact that it was the middle of the night, it was obvious that he was not going to do anything good. As for the two elderly people in the house, as they had said in their previous confessions, they were indeed woken up by the crying of the child and did not go out after that. In other words, these two elderly people were not suspects.
But if the families of these two people are not suspects, then their investigation will have to go back to square one.
…
At the same time, the news of the police investigating the case spread quickly in the group. It didn't matter to others, but Huang Jinghe instinctively felt that something was wrong. Without thinking, he immediately sent a message to Lan Jin.
Huang Jinghe: [Sister Lan, have you read the group chat? They said a man and a woman were raped. Could it be related to those two? If someone comes to ask us about it, what should we do?]
Lan Jin: [Of course I'm telling the truth. No matter what it is, we didn't leave the house, so what does it have to do with us?]
Huang Jinghe choked: [That's right, telling the truth is better than anything else, but the police won't make mistakes, right?]
Lan Jin: [What's wrong? You didn't open the door yesterday. I only opened one door yesterday. What does it have to do with us? But it seems they came over last night. My dog barked a few times, and then there was no sound outside.]
Huang Jinghe recalled hearing a dog barking at night. [Yes, yes, I heard a dog barking too. I guess the thief was scared away by the barking because he felt guilty.]
Huang Jinghe: [Sister Lan, how big is your dog? I couldn't hear it clearly at night, it was blurry, but I feel that your dog is not very big.]
Lan Jin: [..., three months, but don't underestimate it. Guard dogs are completely different from ordinary dogs.]
Huang Jinghe was speechless. If these two people were really scared away by the three-month-old dog, there was no other explanation except that they were guilty.
It has to be said that having someone to discuss things with at this time made Huang Jinghe feel less confused and at a loss, and his heart was at peace.
As for the two families downstairs, there are no suspicions, so everyone living in this building is a suspect. Their next task is naturally to check each house one by one.
The group started from the top floor. It would definitely be easier to go from top to bottom. There was only one household on the top floor, so the first one they went to was Huang Jinghe's. However, the layout of the house was really weird. The police officer complained, "So with such a weird layout, is there really anyone living on the top floor?"
Community workers explained: "There are people living there, but not every household is occupied. Just in these 12 buildings, on the 33rd floor there's a 19-year-old college student returning to school, on the 32nd floor there's a woman with a child and a dog, and on the 31st floor there's currently no one."
After the community workers described it this way, they felt relieved.
…
3303 door.
A community worker knocked on Huang Jinghe's door. "Is anyone in room 3303?"
"Who is it?" Huang Jinghe asked from inside the house.
"I'm from the community, please open the door." said the community staff.
Huang Jinghe carefully opened the door a crack. After confirming that he was indeed looking at the face of a community worker, he dared to open the door completely and asked, "What are you doing here?"
The police were surprised because Huang Jinghe was being so cautious, so they immediately said, "We are the police. I think you must have seen the news in the group chat, so we came to investigate the situation. Is it convenient for you to come in?"
After Huang Jinghe confirmed the IDs of the people outside the door, he opened the security door outside and welcomed them in.
This was Lan Jin's reminder to him. Anyone entering the door must have an ID. Now, due to special circumstances, all staff members will carry their IDs with them when they go out. No one will be allowed in without an ID. This is to ensure their own safety, so they must remember it. Naturally, he remembered it very clearly and would never open the door outside without an ID.
After arriving at the door, the group didn't waste too much time. They took out the photo of the man and woman and placed it in front of Huang Jinghe, asking, "Do you know these two people?"
Huang Jinghe nodded in surprise, "I know him."
They were all quite surprised. After all, these two people and the repeater in front of them didn't look like they knew each other. "Do you guys usually interact a lot? Can you tell us about it?"
I have made each chapter much more obscure, and I wish I could write a sentence for each chapter. I don’t know if it will be blocked. It’s so hard for me.
