"what happened?"
Xiao Qin told the old man and his wife: "Don't worry, you two, we will go back now to arrange the investigation."
"It is necessary to clarify the identity of the deceased and find the cause of death."
"Also, please recall, when was the wall here last renovated?"
The old man thought for a while: "This wall has always been in good condition. The last time it was built was more than 20 years ago."
The old woman said: "Yes, it rained heavily that year, and when I was cleaning up the roof, I cleaned up this place."
"That didn't make a big difference."
Xiao Qin asked them: "Do you still remember the time when this wall was built next door?"
The old man said: "We went on a trip that year, and when we came back, we heard from the neighbors that there seemed to be a new person next door."
"We haven't met anyone either."
"Later, when I went up to the second floor, I saw that another fence had been added to the yard next door."
Xiao Qin asked them: "Who lived next door before?"
The old man told them: "The first people who lived here were Lao Qian and his family. Later, when the Cultural Revolution ended, they were all gone."
"I don't know why that house ended up in someone else's hands, and I haven't seen it much."
"We don't even know the nearest homeowner."
Xiao Qin said to them: "Don't touch the wall yet, do other work first."
He pointed to the incomplete part of the wall: "Let it go here for now. We will check it out and then repair it."
The old man nodded repeatedly: "Okay, okay, I'll make arrangements for the workers."
Back at work, Xiao Qin discussed the case with his colleagues.
"There are only so many basic facts. We must first find a way to confirm the identity of the deceased."
"Forensic Doctor Su, please work hard to catch up."
Su Ruyi agreed: "Okay, we will try to get the test results out tonight."
Xiao Qin nodded: "The results are out and will be handed over to the information database for comparison. I hope we can find the data."
"Another group of people went to verify the owner of that yard."
"After confirming the identity of the homeowner, we will go there and ask someone to question him."
Liang Yinuo asked him: "What if it is related to the old man's family?"
Xiao Qin said: "The old man asked someone to clean up the house and let people find the body there?"
"Do you think it's appropriate?"
"You are quite scared even if you don't look at me."
Liang Yinuo muttered: "He is looking for someone to clean up the house. Who would have thought that someone would break a hole in the courtyard wall?"
Xiao Qin smiled: "You should think about it yourself."
After arranging things, Xiao Qin let everyone break up.
Xiaoqiu, who was the last to leave, patted Liang Yinuo on the shoulder and told him in a low voice: "There are no signs of new repairs on the old man's courtyard wall."
"If you want to put the body in, you can only put it in through the newly built courtyard wall."
Those who went to check the information of the owner of the yard next door quickly got the news.
The homeowner's name is Wang Jianshe, a well-known local real estate businessman, a large taxpayer, and a successful entrepreneur.
Hearing the news, Xiao Qin was also a little embarrassed. How to check this?
Don't make rash inquiries and investigations. Once inappropriate public opinion is aroused, it may have a negative impact.
Liang Yinuo looked at the time and knew that Zhou Zhimo's study time was over, so he called him to talk to him about the case.
He told Zhou Zhimo the general situation, but Zhou Zhimo couldn't stay any longer and would rush back overnight.
There doesn't seem to be much suspense in this case: the newly built courtyard wall was also built five years ago, which coincides with the time.
However, Wang Jianshe's status was special, and he really couldn't come to question him without full assurance and evidence.
Zhou Zhimo raised his hand to rub his temples and took a deep breath.
Yuan Lanshan, who was driving next to him, saw that the service area on the navigation system was not far away. He decided to drive over and buy Zhou Zhimo something to drink and let him rest for a while.
Yuan Lanshan even had an illusion in his heart: "As long as Zhou Zhimo returns to the work later, he will be less stressed and worried."
Seeing the transformation on that face, Yuan Lanshan felt inexplicably panicked.
He parked the car and gently reminded Zhou Zhimo, who had his eyes closed: "Zhimo, get down and take a breath."
Zhou Zhimo sat up and Yuan Lanshan had already unbuckled his seat belt.
The two of them entered the bathroom, washed their faces with cold water, and took the tissue handed over by Yuan Lanshan. Zhou Zhimo wiped the water droplets on his face and said with a smile: "I feel much better."
Yuan Lanshan also smiled: "Let's go and buy something to drink."
When they arrived at the shopping area, Zhou Zhimo went to the specialty area and picked up a box of candy.
The two returned to the checkout counter, looked at what each other had in their hands, and both smiled.
Zhou Zhimo put the candy on the cashier: "I remember when I was in college, you liked to eat this every time."
Yuan Lanshan couldn't help but smile and scanned the QR code to pay the bill. Then he picked up the things, unscrewed the soda water and handed it to Zhou Zhimo: "The brand you often drink."
"Thank you for the candy."
Zhou Zhimo took the water, took a sip, turned his face away, and curved the corners of his mouth.
After a short rest, Yuan Lanshan started the car again. He whispered to Zhou Zhimo: "Zhimo, please take a moment and I'll call you when we get there."
Zhou Zhimo stretched out: "Forget it, driving at night is very tiring, I'll stay with you."
Yuan Lanshan was very happy to hear his words: "It doesn't matter, just fall asleep."
"Don't worry, I'm here."
Yuan Lanshan knew very well that after Zhou Zhimo returned, he would be busy day and night again.
Maybe it was because Yuan Lanshan was so good at driving that Zhou Zhimo fell asleep comfortably.
When he woke up again, the bright lights of Qingquan County were already visible outside the car window.
He slowly moved his body, stretched his arms, and yawned: "I actually fell asleep."
Yuan Lanshan glanced at him and continued to look at the road ahead: "It means you feel safe with me here."
Zhou Zhimo looked at him and smiled: "Look at how angry you are. I am a people's policeman, so I feel a sense of security."
Yuan Lanshan smiled and shook his head, no longer refuting him.
There is a milk tea shop on the roadside. The eye-catching door illuminates a large area of shops around it.
Yuan Lanshan parked the car on the side of the road: "Just wait for me, just one minute."
After saying that, he closed the car door, hugged his clothes tightly, and trotted to the milk tea shop.
After a while, he came back with milk tea.
After closing the car door and handing the milk tea to Zhou Zhimo, he rubbed his hands and blew in hot air: "It's getting colder and colder at night."
"It's hot, drink some quickly."
"We're almost at your unit. I'll be busy soon, and I don't know how long it will take before I have time to drink water."
Zhou Zhimo took out the milk tea from the bag and held it warm in his hand.
Soon he arrived at the door of the unit. Yuan Lanshan parked the car, turned to look at Zhou Zhimo, smiled and said: "Go and get busy, take care of yourself."
Zhou Zhimo smiled at him, unbuckled his seat belt, opened the car door and got out.
After closing the door, Yuan Lanshan had lowered the window and was leaning over to look at him from the passenger side.
Zhou Zhimo waved his hand towards him: "Find a place to live by yourself, I'm going to be busy."
