Xiong Jun had this strange dream and tried his best to recall the situation and location of the young man meeting him in the dream. He vaguely remembered seeing a small river in his dream, and there was a house by the river that looked like a teahouse.
According to this impression, Xiong Jun found such a place with a small river in front of the door. However, the house was not a teahouse, but a residence. Only an old woman with white hair lived in it.
Xiong Jun asked her about her situation, and she introduced her surname as Liu, known as Liu family. She used to be the wife of local coal boss Yao Yishui. She was later forced to divorce because she could not have children.
This house belongs to her natal nephew. She lives here to look after the house with her nephew. The house has a total of five rooms including the central hall, two of which are used for living and accommodation, and the other two are used as warehouses for storing goods. The nave is used as a living room and is of course empty. Xiong Jun walked in and took a look. The two rooms were full of dry goods, with cement hardened floors underneath. He didn't find anything. When he came out, he asked Ms. Liu, what's your nephew's surname? Oh, I made a mistake. Your nephew has the same surname as you. What is his name?
Mrs. Liu asked, "What's the matter?" Xiong Jun said, nothing happened. I just want to ask his name, remember it, and do some business with him in the future. Isn't he in the dry goods business?
He is in the dry goods business. Ms. Liu looked at Xiong Jun, who was wearing plain clothes and had a friendly attitude, and said, "You don't look like a bad guy, so I'll tell you. His name is Liu Sanpo, and he sells dry goods at the market in the west of the city. If you go to the market, you can ask Liu Sanpo." Yes, you should take more care of his business. Xiong Jun nodded and walked a few steps, then turned to ask Ms. Liu, had there been a teahouse here before?
I have opened it, I have opened it, that was a year ago. When my nephew saw that the teahouse business was not doing well, he changed his career. As Liu said, she suddenly remembered that she had not sifted the tea for this guest, so she was going to make tea. Xiong Jun said no, no.
After Xiong Jun left, he had been suspecting that the young man in the dream might be dead. His death might be related to Liu Sanpo, who opened the teahouse a year ago, but this was just his own conjecture and had no factual basis and should not be made public.
He suddenly remembered what happened a year ago about Yao Heihu, the son of Yao Yishui, the local coal boss, and wanted to find out. Has his son been found now? Go home?
Xiong Jun immediately went to find Yao Yishui at the mine and asked him to take out a photo of his son Yao Heihu. He looked exactly like the young man in his dream, and he felt that something was fishy.
His son had been missing for more than a year. Yao Yishui had spent his time in extreme worry, and his mood had calmed down a little. When the police mentioned this matter again, it naturally aroused his thoughts about his son.
At this moment, Yao Yishui didn't understand why the police wanted to see Heihu's photo, so he asked him, has my son's disappearance case been solved? Xiong Jun shook his head and said that we are trying to solve this case. Yao Yishui said eagerly, if this case is solved and my son is recovered, half of my mine assets will be donated to your public security bureau.
Xiong Jun said no. If the case is settled, donating some money to the impoverished mountainous area for construction would be the best reward for our police.
Xiong Jun was not sure whether this case could be solved. He could not tell the truth about the strange dream he had and the fact that the young man in the dream looked very similar to Yao Heihu in the photo. Yao Yishui asked him why he was looking at the photos, and Xiong Jun said that he just wanted to familiarize himself with and master the portrait characteristics of Black Tiger in order to solve the case.
That night, Xiong Jun had that strange dream again. A young man stood in front of him and howled loudly. In an instant, his body exploded like a cannon, and his flesh and blood flew everywhere. After waking up, Xiong Jun broke into a cold sweat.
During the day, he found an opportunity to tell the director of the Public Security Bureau Shi Zhi about this strange dream. He also said that he had found a house that used to run a tea shop, now stocked dry goods, and had an old woman living there, but found no trace. There is only suspicion about Liu Sanpo, Liu's nephew, and no factual basis can be found.
Shi Zhi lit a cigarette, took a deep breath, and then exhaled a circle of smoke. After the smoke dissipated, he slowly said that ghosts may have grievances in their dreams. You can't give up, you have to dig deeper from different angles, maybe you can find clues to the case. Xiong Jun said, yes.
He walked out of the director's office, returned to the criminal police brigade to think about it, and led a few police officers to the house by the river again. Ms. Liu began to come out of the house. She recognized the leader Xiong Jun at a glance, looked at his police uniform and several other police officers, and then stared at Xiong Jun, "It's you, what's the matter?"
Something happened this time. It's related to a case, and we want to investigate it again. Xiong Jun put it bluntly.
What case? Ms. Liu asked somewhat inexplicably.
We can't talk about it now, we can only keep it a secret. Please cooperate with us. Xiong Jun said, then walked into the house and observed it carefully. It was difficult for Mrs. Liu to stop her. She had already recognized Xiong Jun when she saw him last time, and thought he was Liu Sanpo's client. Now, she finally understood that he was from the Public Security Bureau, specializing in catching bad guys. Ms. Liu worriedly asked again, "My nephew's third wife didn't commit anything, right?" Xiong Jun smiled and replied, no. If he commits a crime, can he still do business with peace of mind?
Xiong Jun and Liu were talking here, and several policemen were checking the two rooms used as dry goods warehouses. Liu seemed worried and looked up from time to time. Xiong Jun saw what was on her mind and said, Auntie, don't worry, we won't touch the dry goods your nephew has stored there.
Ms. Liu was doubtful, but put on a smile, "I still don't understand what you want to check?" There are no bad people hiding in these houses. If they were, wouldn't this old woman like me be killed long ago? Xiong Jun replied, maybe there were some traces left in these rooms before you lived here. We are here to see the traces.
Then just watch it! I feel nothing. Liu said this with a very calm look.
Xiong Jun once again walked into the two warehouses where dry goods were stored, including the two living rooms of the Liu family in the main room. Several policemen had looked at them and said they found nothing.
Suddenly, a dark wind blew up from a room inside the warehouse, which made Xiong Jun shiver. This made him calm down, and as if he had been inspired, he immediately ordered a few policemen to move this room. The dry goods in one room were moved to another room.
As the dry goods were being moved, Xiong Jun said to the unhappy Liu, no matter what happened, we will restore the moved dry goods after checking. Please rest assured that if it is damaged, we will compensate according to the price. Seeing that Xiong Jun spoke well, Mrs. Liu was satisfied and said, I believe you.
When the goods in that room were moved halfway, they discovered that there were two or three square meters of new cement-hardened marks on the floor, which were obviously different from other old floor parts. The goods in the entire room were cleared away, and they were no longer there. No unusual traces were found. One of the policemen asked Xiong Jun if he would immediately restore the removed dry goods?
slow. As Xiong Jun said this, he called Mrs. Liu who was standing at the door to come over and ask her, when did this new mark harden? Ms. Liu shook her head to express that she was not sure. She said that when she came to live here, this room was full of useful things and she had never moved it away.
Of course Ms. Liu didn't know why the leader asked her this question. She was about to say, there's nothing to see, just restore the stuff you removed! But before the words were spoken, Xiong Jun said first, Auntie, we also want to dig out the new hardened marks on the ground.
