winter past

There are not many diners in the baccarat, and the hall is empty.Yin Miaozai and Xiaoman occupied a large table with six seats by the window, and sat face to face. Yin Miaozai flipped through the menu and said like a string of cannonballs: "Which dish is better here? What do you like to eat? Here What are your specialties? Do you want a set meal or a la carte? Do you want something to drink?"

Xiaoman asked for a pot of fragrant slices, and said, "I eat all of them, I'm not picky about food, you can order it, whatever you want."

Yin Miaozai raised her head from behind the menu, her two dark brown eyes swept Xiaoman back and forth many times, she called the waiter and ordered a health nourishing set meal.

Xiaoman touched his face, poured two cups of tea, gave Yin Miaozai a cup, and smiled.Yin Miaozai said "Thank you" softly, and asked him, "What did you go upstairs to get?"

Xiao Man said, "Wallet."

Yin Miaozai rolled her eyes, stroked the table, and changed the subject with a smile: "What happened to Lu Yang's face?"

Xiao Man also smiled: "Why don't you analyze it?"

Yin Miaozai said: "I think, he was beaten."

"Not a fight?"

"He didn't have any wounds on his hands, but his face was wounded, so he should have been simply beaten."

Xiao Man clasped his fists together and smiled silently.Yin Miaozai's eyes widened instantly: "Really? Is it really just a beating? Am I right?"

Xiaoman nodded silently, but the excitement and smile on Yin Miaozai's face disappeared, wrinkling his nose and wrinkling his face, complaining: "What kind of students are recruited by the attached middle school now, how can you beat people in school?"

Xiao Man then asked, "How do you know that you were beaten by other students in school? Maybe you met some hooligans outside."

Yin Miaozai analyzed logically: "The little rascal just hit him so many times? Isn't it just a group of people punching and kicking one person when the little rascal blocks people? It must cause injuries all over the body. Lu Yang just hit him on the face. If there is an injury, it must have been beaten at school, and then, the teacher stopped it in time when he saw it."

Xiaoman said: "Mr. Yin, it's ok." He had a feeling, "I see, you really like reasoning and solving crimes, so you married a criminal policeman?"

Yin Miaozai's eyes narrowed, and she fell silent, holding the small teacup with her hands, lowered her head, and lowered her eyes.Xiao Man knew he had made a slip of the tongue, and it was his turn to change the subject. He said, "According to Detective Yin's analysis, how many cases do you think the Black Mountain killer has committed so far?"

"I think the blue female corpse in Huangguozi Village, 5, Building 304, Qingshui Garden, and the Aegean Sea were all done by him."

"Room 5, Building 304, Qingshui Garden?"

"Don't you know? On the day the blue female body was found, in the afternoon, an old couple was found in Qingshui Garden. Injury, the murderer straightened his knee, and put the two of them in the same way as in their [-]th wedding anniversary photo, and dressed them in the clothes in their wedding anniversary photo, do you think it is perverted? Really? ill……"

The waiter came to serve the food, hot food was set on the table, and Xiaoman served Yin Miaozai a bowl of oily yellow fish maw chicken soup.Yin Miaozai looked up at him: "Aren't you going to eat?"

Xiaoman raised his chopsticks, pointed at the dishes on the table and said, "Eat, eat."

Yin Miaozai's gaze was still on his face.Xiaoman picked up a chopstick of cold fungus, stuffed it into his mouth with a smile, chewed it a few times, and swallowed it down.He took off the headband, grabbed his hair a few times, and said, "Sister Li's headband is fashionable, right?"

He put down his headband, lowered his head to pick up the vegetables, buried his head in the food, and his long hair drooped, so he covered his hair with his hands, propped his forehead and continued to pick up the vegetables, and continued to swallow.His mouth was full of greasy food, Xiao Man coughed and got up, saying, "I'm going to the bathroom."

Yin Miaozai called to him: "Wait a minute," she put down the bowl and chopsticks, and said, "You don't have another excuse to go to the bathroom, do you just leave? What did you get upstairs just now? Can you get it?" Come out and show me?"

Xiaoman sat down again, sitting next to Yin Miaozai, dug out the plastic bag from his trouser pocket, and said, "I just took these, for the inspection site."

Yin Miaozai pointed to the things in the bag: "Torch, scissors, understandable, candles...Barely understandable...Then what can this glue and this candy box be used for?"

Xiao Man said, "There are uses for them."

"Really?"

"Really, you can search for 502 printing. With 502, this tin candy box, and candles, you can make a simple printing device for printing palm prints and fingerprints."

Yin Miaozai was skeptical, stroked the table, looked at Xiaoman softly, and asked softly: "Just now you said in Yaochi that you were going to find the person who analyzed the video, so why did you specially bring these things for the inspection site? You just now Still planning to go to the toilet with them in your mouth, and you still have my car keys, right? You be honest, do you find me cumbersome? Or do you think I am here to play detective games, are you going to leave me alone or not at all? Don't plan to check these things carefully? Do you think you have little money?"

As soon as she waved, she called the waiter and asked, "Where is your back door? Is it near the toilet?"

The waiter didn't understand, so he nodded and said, "It's near the men's toilet...do you...do you need to leave through the back door?"

Xiaoman touched the tablecloth, laughed loudly, approached Yin Miaozai, and said, "I think you can go to the criminal police examination, it's a waste to be a teacher."

"Don't waste it, it's all about contributing to society." Yin Miaozai was a little displeased and helpless, looked at Xiaoman, and said earnestly: "I'm really not kidding, when I think of such a The pervert is getting away with it, so I feel... what should I do, really, you can laugh at me for meddling in my own business, or think I am fine, I think you have the ability, and together we can help the police solve the case. She also said, "If you think the money is too little, you can discuss it. It's also the first time I'm looking for a private detective. I don't know how much I should give..."

Xiaoman put her car keys and the plastic bag on the table, and said, "I really need to go to the bathroom, don't worry, I will keep this bag and your car keys."

He took out his mobile phone, opened the search engine, and said, "I'm not lying to you, really, I'll search for you, 502, Xianyin..."

He was typing, and the search results popped up. He put the phone on the table and said, "I also keep my phone here. It is the most valuable thing in my body. I really want to go to the toilet... ...I don't think the money is too low, the price you gave is very reasonable, you see, you paid me to hire me, and now I just charge you a deposit, if you make you unhappy, maybe you will leave I'm gone, I went to find Detective Zhang and Detective Li, right? There's really no need for me to leave you and go it alone to make you unhappy, don't you think?"

Yin Miaozai picked up his mobile phone and looked at him several times. Xiao Man wanted to leave. Yin Miaozai returned the mobile phone to him and said, "Why do I need your mobile phone..."

Although she was still full of suspicion and distrust when she looked at Xiaoman, she didn't stop her.

Xiaoman took the mobile phone, entered the men's room, turned out a window, and slipped away.

He took a taxi to Qingshui Garden, and when he was at an intersection from the community, he asked the driver to stop the car, got out of the car and walked to the community.He walked all the way to look at the entrance of Qingshui Garden. There is a guard room at the entrance. The left and right sides are the passages for entering and exiting the community. , a sidewalk that is higher than the road surface.Two surveillance cameras were installed on the walls of the residential buildings on both sides of the passage, facing the entrance and exit respectively, and the red lights under the cameras were on.

There are many shops on both sides of the gate of the community, a convenience supermarket that is still open, a massage shop that is closed, and a fruit shop that has closed the shutter doors. Cameras are also installed in front of them, and they are all working .

At this time, there were two security guards in uniform sitting in the guard room. They were quite old and were playing cards together.When a car enters the community, it must either swipe the electronic door card, or the security guard will come out and register the information of the visitor and then let it go.Vehicles leaving the community do not need to swipe their cards, and the electronic gate seems to be inductive.Pedestrians can pass through unimpeded whether they come in or out.

Xiaoman put his hands in his pockets, walked into the community with his head held high, and when he passed by the guard room, he nodded and greeted the two security guards.One of the security guards nodded at him too.

He found five buildings downstairs, followed the cigarette butts on the ground, and walked to a nearby garbage sorting center, where there were the most cigarette butts near a garbage can for dry garbage.He stood by those cigarette butts and watched Wudong light a cigarette.

After a while, a middle-aged man with a backpack on his back opened the electronic security door of Building 5 and entered the building.Xiaoman continued to smoke for a while.Seeing that the electronic anti-theft door was about to be closed, he rushed over, blocked the door with his foot, looked around, and flashed into the building.

He went to the door of 304 and saw that the door of 304 was a simple wooden door, while the surrounding residents were all anti-theft doors. The wooden door was still very new, as if it had just been replaced. There was a seal on the door, and some were torn traces of opening.Xiaoman touched the door lock, scratched his hair, went downstairs, found a stone to block the anti-theft door, and went to the convenience store.

He bought a pack of hairpins and a toothbrush in the supermarket, and now there was only 25 yuan left on Alipay. He went back to the 5th building and was about to enter the building when he caught a glimpse of a tall locust tree growing close to the residential buildings. , he couldn't help but walked over, stood under the tree and looked up.The canopy of the locust tree has grown almost to the fifth floor, and a small trace of broken branches and leaves can be vaguely seen among the luxuriant branches, as if a gap was opened by some giant beast. Xiao Man turned his gaze to the direction of the gap opening Pan over.It is facing a third floor balcony.

Xiaoman put the things he bought under the tree, and climbed up the locust tree with hands and feet.When he climbed to the position where the gap was, he counted down, and it was indeed the height of the third floor, and the gap was indeed facing a balcony on the third floor.The balcony is equipped with anti-theft windows, and there are some clothes hangers on the high place. You can see the washing machine, several potted plants, some of which are dead, and a lot of weeds have grown in some flower pots, and some bags of bird food are piled up in the corner. .There was a lot of bird droppings on the railing of the anti-theft window.

Xiaoman hugged the branch, stretched out his hand a little to the side, and touched a water pipe fixed to the outer wall of the apartment.He shook the water pipe, and it was firmly fixed.

Suddenly, the upstairs balcony turned on the light, Xiao Man quickly got down from the tree, went back to the third floor, went back to the door of 3, opened the package of hairpins, took out one, and picked the lock in the dark.The lock opened quickly, and he carefully lifted the seal, entered the house, closed the door quietly, took off his shoes, and walked into the house.

There was a strange smell lingering in 304, with a little fishy smell in the sourness, it was a bit choking after smelling it for a long time, Xiaoman had to pull up his shirt to cover his mouth and nose.
