As soon as these words were spoken, the police officers present raised their heads. You Mingxu immediately asked: "What did Xu Jiayuan say?"
Jiang Mingxuan's voice became quieter: "Xu Jiayuan said... he also wants to kill Liu Ruoyu."
Seeing that the police were silent, Jiang Mingxuan said, "This... was all just angry words, everyone just said it casually, how could they really hack someone. And after that, a few days later, the two of them were fine again, and they even took a bus to the city together to play games and eat. And tonight, Liu Ruoyu was with us the whole time and didn't go anywhere."
The policemen all frowned.
Yin Feng, who had been silent for a long time, suddenly spoke up: "When Xu Jiayuan bullied Liu Ruoyu, what did you and Liu Ping do?"
All the police immediately looked at this rumored big shot. However, seeing that the person in question was You Ming, Xu didn't even raise his eyebrows, as if he agreed to his question, so they all listened quietly.
Jiang Mingxuan lowered his head: "We...didn't do anything."
Yin Feng pouted, looking unusually serious: "Did you not stop it, or did you not participate in the bullying?"
Jiang Mingxuan panicked and said, "That... that can't be considered bullying. It was just a joke. He's young, so I was just teasing him..."
Yin Feng shook his head, his eyes cold: "He is young, so you can laugh at him, order him around, and threaten him at will? Why can adults forgive themselves so easily when they bully children? Is it just because only when it comes to children can adults like you feel that you are strong and powerful?"
No one spoke, and Jiang Mingxuan was speechless too. You Mingxu looked at Yin Feng. He was obviously angry, his face was a little red, but his eyes were sharp and intimidating. At first glance, they don't seem particularly stupid.
——
The sky in the east was already turning pale.
You Mingxu walked down from the township house to get some fresh air. The villagers who had come to watch the excitement in the middle of the night also dispersed, probably going home to catch up on their sleep. The streets of the town seemed very quiet. The noisy, mixed crowd that accompanies urbanization and the influx of foreign population has not yet appeared in the new day. The long streets finally regained some of their peaceful rural feel.
She didn't feel any sound in her heart, but she just felt very upset. In their area, four people, including two children, died over the next few days. Originally, the two cases seemed very ordinary and the investigative direction was particularly clear, but when we looked into them, we found no clues at all.
The case of Xie Huifang's family is now at a standstill. There was no obvious motive or suspect for the vendetta, and the possibility of robbery for money was ruled out. She agreed with Yin Feng's reasoning: either they missed something and the murderer was among those who had already been investigated; or it was a mentally unstable stranger who killed Xie Huifang to vent his anger.
As for the current case, they wanted to resolve it quickly. Any experienced investigator could judge that the murderer was most likely an acquaintance. But now, after the first round of investigation, those people who were most familiar with the deceased all have alibis. Just now, the surveillance footage and neighbors' statements have been obtained, and a camera happened to capture the entrance of the building. The three roommates did not go out the entire night, and the neighbors could attest to that. The place where Xu Jiayuan was killed was a wasteland. There was no surveillance nearby and no valuable evidence had been found.
The police can now only further expand their search and suspicion scope to find the suspect.
You Mingxu let out a long breath and walked back to the building where the crime occurred.
It was getting light and the group went downstairs. The three roommates were taken back to the police station for a detailed investigation. You Mingxu looked at them one by one, and the expressions of the three were exactly the same: depressed, silent, and tense. There's nothing unusual. Her eyes fell on Liu Ruoyu again. After this incident, his "child laborer" would definitely not be able to be beaten. His colleagues had already contacted his family, but it seemed that no relatives had expressed willingness to rush over from their hometown to pick him up.
Yin Feng was walking at the end of the group. As soon as he came downstairs, he saw You Mingxu and immediately ran over and said, "Where have you been? I've been looking for you for so long."
"Come down for some fresh air."
"Why not take me?"
"Aren't you busy?"
Yin Feng scratched his head, remembering that he was working so hard just now that he didn't even notice when she came downstairs. This made his heart sink.
"I didn't mean to ignore you!" he said immediately, following her steps like a bee to a flower. "I just got lost in thought for a moment. I won't do that again."
You Mingxu thought to himself: I wish you were like this. But I can't say it out loud, because if I say it, Yingjun will be angry. She smiled faintly and said, "Isn't it interesting to investigate the case?"
Yin Feng grinned: "Not bad."
She suddenly said, "I think you should be able to recover your memory soon. Congratulations."
Yin Feng paused, bit his lip, and watched her walk forward without looking back. He felt inexplicably hurt. He chased after her and said in a nonchalant manner, "Haha... It's a pity that I even forgot what I had for dinner this morning! How can I possibly recover my memory?"
However, after he uttered such powerful words, You Mingxu just smiled faintly, neither saying whether he believed it nor whether he did not believe it. Yin Feng suddenly felt that his thoughts were always easily seen through by her. He wanted to resist but there was no way to escape from her grasp. He pouted and thought: Ash is so mean! Like a big bad wolf, always...always playing with his sincerity!
Angry about this incident, Yin Feng ignored You Mingxu after returning to the police station. However, You Mingxu had no time to deal with him. The group of criminal police were exhausted. After briefly summarizing the preliminary facts of the case and letting other colleagues continue to investigate, they all fell asleep on the table.
If you can make up for an hour of sleep, then make up for it. No one is made of iron.
You Mingxu had a folding chair in the office, which was usually stuffed in the corner. At this moment, he took it out, laid it across the floor, and fell asleep. Yin Feng would not participate in their desk work just now, so he stayed in the same meeting room to rest. At this moment, he was looking through the window at You Mingxu lying on the ground. She is actually the most well-behaved when she sleeps. Her body is always curled up tightly with her long hair hanging down, like a little girl. A few slender white fingers were exposed outside the sleeves. Yin Feng stared at the hand for a long time, and suddenly he felt that he was not angry about her teasing just now. In his heart, he still felt that he was a great guy. If You Mingxu didn't apologize, he could get rid of his anger by himself.
Then he rolled his eyes, turned sideways in his chair, assumed the same posture as You Mingxu, and closed his eyes.
When everyone woke up, it was already past lunchtime and everyone was starving. There was also a tense case waiting for them in the afternoon. You Mingxu simply waved his hand and said, "Let's go out and have a nice meal, we'll split the bill."
