"Comrade Wen, why are you here today?"
Ye Tan was quite surprised to see Wen Shaohuan coming over. She remembered that Wen Shaohuan said he would come over when he had a break, but today didn't seem to be a rest day.
"I heard that there was a big case in your village, so I came over to see you. How about it? You weren't scared, were you?" Wen Shaohuan put the things he brought on the table: "This is what I brought with me when I was on a business trip. I don’t know if you like some of the specialties I brought back, but my grandpa asked me to bring them to you."
What Wen Shaohuan brought was some food, which was very practical for Ye Tan, who was now going to the countryside in the village.
Before Ye Tan could say anything, Wen Shaohuan took out some more money notes: "There are still these money notes, you should keep them first. If you don't have enough money later, tell me."
As soon as Ye Tan saw it, he quickly stopped Wen Shaohuan: "Comrade Wen, your grandfather is an old friend of my grandfather. He sent me these things, so I accepted them shamelessly, but I really can't ask for the money. The money in my hand There are enough tickets, so you don’t have to worry.”
"How much money can you get for going to the countryside?" Wen Shaohuan didn't believe Ye Tan's words.
Ye Tan smiled and said, "That's enough. You've also seen my house and bicycle. If I don't have money, can I build a house and buy a bicycle?"
Wen Shaohuan thought about it, so he smiled and didn't insist anymore: "Then if you need anything later, just tell me."
"good."
Ye Tan poured a glass of sugar water for Wen Shaohuan, and took a lot of snacks and put them on the Kang table: "These are the wild products I picked from the mountains. They taste good. You try them. I will get them for you when you go back later." Send some to Grandpa Wen, so that he can taste the specialties here."
What Ye Tan put on the kang table were chestnuts, pine nuts and wild hazelnuts. Taking advantage of the opportunity to collect mountain products these days, Ye Tan signed a lot of mountain products and stored them in the system warehouse. He saved several hundred kilograms of each type. , the number is really quite a lot.
The chestnuts are ripe. Ye Tan has fried a lot of chestnuts in the simulation room in the past two days and stored them in the system warehouse.
"Did you go to the mountains to pick these?" Wen Shaohuan peeled off a chestnut and tasted it, and couldn't help but smile: "It tastes very good."
Ye Tan smiled and said: "I have fried these. I will bring you some raw ones later, so that it will be convenient to send them back."
"Then let me thank you in advance on behalf of my grandfather." Wen Shaohuan said with a smile.
"You're welcome." Ye Tan also smiled and said, "Didn't you bring me so many things?"
Speaking of which, this was the fourth time the two met. As they slowly talked, they began to get familiar with each other. Ye Tan thought about it and said, "When I was very young, my grandfather's family and my mother They passed away, so I have no impression of them, can you tell me about my grandpa and them?"
Then he sighed: "I don't even have a photo of them."
When Wen Shaohuan heard this, he said a little apologetically: "I only recently found out that your grandpa and my grandpa are old friends, so I don't know much about your grandpa's family. Why not, I will ask my grandpa and the others later. Then I’ll tell you, okay?”
Ye Tan then asked: "Is it convenient?"
"It's convenient, why is it inconvenient?" Wen Shaohuan said hurriedly: "I'll tell you when I come next time."
"Okay, then thank you, Comrade Wen." Ye Tan smiled with crooked eyebrows, which made Wen Shaohuan's eyes light up, and he couldn't help but laugh along with him.
"You see, our elders are old friends." Wen Shaohuan took a sip of water, then looked at Ye Tan and said, "You call me Comrade Wen, it sounds unfamiliar, why not call me Brother Wen."
Ye Tan thought for a while, then responded with a smile: "Okay, Brother Wen."
Wen Shaohuan smiled even more happily after hearing this.
At this time, someone knocked on the door outside. Ye Tan opened the door and saw that it was Qiao Yimin.
"Second Officer Qiao, please come in quickly." Ye Tan let Qiao Yimin into the house, and then went to the kitchen to pour water for Qiao Yimin.
Qiao Yimin looked at Wen Shaohuan, who still had a smile on his face, couldn't help but squinted his eyes and smiled, bumped Wen Shaohuan's shoulder, and whispered: "You still say that I think all over the place?"
Wen Shaohuan glanced at Qiao Yimin without saying anything. He took a drink of water and straightened his expression.
"Mr. Qiao, what are you doing here today?" Ye Tan handed the poured water to Qiao Yimin and asked.
Qiao Yimin said: "It's like this. There is still no clue about the case on the mountain last time. So, we came to the village today to visit and see if we can find any clues. Ye Zhiqing, think about it in recent times. Didn’t you see anyone or anything suspicious?”
"Suspicious person or thing?" Ye Tan thought about it carefully after hearing this, then shook his head and said: "That's not the case."
Qiao Yimin nodded and frowned slightly. Their town public security bureau had never been involved in such a big case and was not very experienced. But now, except for the identity of the victim, they had nothing else. The director urged again. He wanted to find out the facts of the case as soon as possible, which doubled his pressure.
Ye Tan asked curiously: "Public Security Qiao, is the victim Dong Erdong from Shuangxing Village?"
"Yes." Qiao Yimin nodded: "I have asked the Dong family from Shuangxing Village to identify the person, and it is indeed Dong Erdong."
Because Ye Tan helped catch the trafficker, Ye Tan still reminded him about the cigarette butts last time, so Qiao Yimin told Ye Tan some of the situation. Moreover, the case was not clear at all now, and brainstorming might be able to shed some light.
"Then the Dong family didn't provide any useful clues?"
Qiao Yimin shook his head: "Dong Erdong disappeared a year ago. The Dong family gave up after searching for several months without finding him."
"Did anything unusual happen to Dong Erdong before he disappeared?" Wen Shaohuan on the side asked after listening to what the two said.
"That Dong Erdong is a gangster. He often goes out to fool around when he's not at home. His family doesn't know what he usually does." Qiao Yimin shook his head and said, "So, they can't provide any useful clues."
Ye Tan thought of the cigarette butt and smelled it: "Public Security Qiao, are there any clues in the collected evidence?"
"I don't know yet. There is no feedback yet." Regarding this point, Qiao Yimin couldn't reveal it. The cigarette butts and other evidence collected previously have been sent to the Municipal Public Security Bureau. After all, things like fingerprints need to be checked. Their town’s public security bureau couldn’t do it.
However, checking fingerprints requires manual comparison slowly, and the results will not be available for a while.
Ye Tan nodded. The topic of murder was a bit heavy, and the three of them were silent for a while.
But Ye Tan always felt that he seemed to have missed something.
what is it then?
Oh, right!
Ye Tan raised his head and looked at Qiao Yimin: "Public Security Qiao, I remember that when you took the victim away, it seemed that he was only wearing one shoe, right?"
