love story

Leng Yu and others came to the Swan Hotel again, but saw that the hall was more deserted than before, and the hotel manager had a sad face when he saw them coming.

However, since Xu Linglong used to be a resident here, and it is very likely that he disappeared in this hotel, it is necessary for the police to come here to investigate the case, which naturally affects the daily operation and business of the hotel.Then, travelers who want to stay here will more or less hear about it, so hotel bookings must be less than before, and some guests even checked out early.

Seeing Leng Yu approaching, Huang Lin handed a brown rope to her and said, "Boss, I found this rope near the garbage chute."

Leng Yu took it, took a look at it, and handed it to Officer Peng, saying, "Let's list it as evidence for the time being. The man in the surveillance may have used it to climb into the suite."

Officer Peng took it and handed it to one of the officers, then turned to Leng Yu and said, "I also sent someone to check just now, there is a footstep next to the window of the presidential suite, and there are shoe prints there, but it is very Shallow, but it proves that someone actually broke into the suite through that window."

"Well, then we also have reason to believe that the suitcases are also placed there. Until the man checks out in the morning, he drives the car nearby, and then picks up the suitcase. The garbage chute is a little far from the hotel, and there are few people there. Someone walked by, and he changed his appearance again, even if someone saw him, he would not be able to recognize who it was." Leng Yu said.

Later, Huang Lin took a piece of paper from the counter, walked to Leng Yu, handed it to her, and said, "This is the information of the waiter."

Leng Yu looked down at the information on the paper, without saying a word.

Seeing that she didn't speak, Huang Lin continued: "We adjusted the surveillance video and asked the hotel staff to point out the identity of the waiter. At the same time, we also asked the security guard who had a brief exchange with him that night, and confirmed that it was this man. , which is one of the newly recruited employees."

After hearing what Huang Lin said, Leng Yu just said, "His appearance is a little different from the surveillance video."

Huang Lin said: "Well, this photo should have been taken many years ago, and the appearance is a little different. The hotel staff also said that because of the gap between the appearance in the photo and the reality, they used it to joke with him many times."

Leng Yu checked the waiter's profile carefully, and the above was only very simple basic information.The name of the waiter is Duan Liansheng, he is 48 years old, and his birthplace is in Quanzhou.In addition, Leng Yu memorized some other information after a glance.

Then, she stared at Duan Liansheng's photo, and saw that he had a higher hairline and a wider forehead, which was somewhat similar to Xu Linglong's. Both of them belonged to men with high hairlines, and they were slightly bald in middle age.

The photo was just a headshot, so it was impossible to see his figure clearly, and it was impossible to confirm whether the man who came out of the suite on the morning of December 21 was the waiter.

Moreover, the biggest difference between Duan Liansheng in the photo and the one in the surveillance video is that he has two thick black beards in the photo, but he has no beard in the video.

And those eyes.

In the video, Duan Liansheng lowered his head the whole time, unable to see his face clearly, while in the photo his eyes are a little small.

In addition, he was wearing a waiter's hat in the video, and he couldn't see his hairstyle at all, so there was a certain gap between the accuracy of the photo and the real him.

Leng Yu remembered something. She walked up to the hotel manager and asked, "Mr. Huang, there is something I want to ask you."

Mr. Huang, the hotel manager, said, "Is there anything Officer Leng wants to know?"

Leng Yu asked, "When did this waiter leave the job?"

Mr. Huang said: "He resigned with other temporary employees on December 31, because most of the regular employees came back to work one after another. It's just..."

Leng Yu asked, "Just what?"

Mr. Huang said: "Duan Liansheng asked for sick leave on December 21, and then went to work normally on December 22."

"He is on sick leave, and the features on the photo are somewhat similar to the facial features of the man who appeared in the video on December 21, which can prove that the waiter is indeed the same man who walked out of the suite. He is not Going to meet the murderer is the real murderer who killed Xu Linglong." Xiao Cheng said.

"Yes, he may be an accomplice, or the murderer himself. I also believe that the waiter and the man in the surveillance are the same person. His hairline and Xu Linglong's are both tall. Both of them have broad foreheads and their bodies should be of the same size. It's almost the same, so it shouldn't be too much effort to pretend to be Xu Linglong, so as to deceive people's eyes and ears. Even if the voices of the two are different, who would pay attention to it? Xu Linglong is not a long-term resident here, and he rarely talks with him. The staff here communicate with Mr. Ding the most, so generally no one will pay attention to his voice." Leng Yu said.

Although this series of clues has been found, where is Duan Liansheng at the moment?No one could give an accurate answer, so the clues just stopped here.

Now the name of the waiter has been found out, but is his real identity what is shown in the information?After all, it is very easy to make fake ID cards and certificates these days, and it is not ruled out that Duan Liansheng used a fake name and address.

Leng Yu saw that nothing was going on right now, they had been busy running around when they first arrived, and now when they came out of the hotel, it was already dark.

Seeing Huang Lin and Xiao Cheng's tired faces, she couldn't bear it, so she said, "It's late, why don't we just stay here? We'll continue to check tomorrow morning?"

Both of them nodded their heads.

After checking in at the hotel, the three of them casually ate dinner nearby and went back to the hotel to rest.Xiao Cheng lived in one room, and Leng Yu and Huang Lin naturally lived together.

In the hotel room, after Leng Yu finished washing, she saw Huang Lin slumped on the bed, she shook her head and smiled, and said, "I told you to do more exercise when you have nothing to do. Look, how long has it been like this? The whole sick cat."

Huang Lin lay on the bed and said, "My boss, not everyone has as much energy as you."

Leng Yu didn't say much, she took out her mobile phone and looked, and saw that there were several messages on it, all from Lin Xin.She sat on the edge of her bed, bowed her head and clicked into her WeChat.

I saw that Lin Xin's message was sent in the afternoon.

"What about the case?"

"After the case is solved, we will go out together again, just like the last time we went fishing by the river, what do you think?"

"Onion and the others agreed to go hiking together, do you want to go together?"

After reading these few messages, Leng Yu's original irritability disappeared, and a smile appeared on the corner of her mouth.

"The case? That's it. I got a few clues. Although they are all key, the murderer is very cunning. We have to fight with him."

After this message was sent, Lin Xin's message came very quickly, as fast as if she had been by her phone all day.

"You used 'he', the murderer was a man?"

Leng Yu tapped the screen quickly with her fingers, and said, "It's just a suspect, not necessarily a man."

Lin Xin sent another message: "Leng Yu, I have confidence in you for this case, you have to work hard!"

Although it was in cold handwriting, when Leng Yu thought of Lin Xinruo saying these words, she must have had a very serious expression, her eyes were as bright as stars in the sky.

Thinking about it, she unconsciously deepened the smile at the corner of her mouth.

She replied, "Thank you."

There replied: "You're welcome."

Leng Yu looked back at the other two messages, and replied: "Speaking of fishing by the river, have you forgotten? There was a big crime there."

Lin Xin, who was in her apartment, saw Leng Yu's news, and secretly spat in her heart: Disappointing!

She pursed her lips, and immediately replied: "Do you want to be so disappointing? I can't forget that case until now, it is deeply imprinted in my mind, and you even brought it up on purpose."

After seeing Leng Yu, she smiled lightly, but unexpectedly, Huang Lin, who was lying on the other bed, was startled. She said disdainfully, "What's the matter? Have you chatted with your little lover? What are you laughing at?" Like."

"Don't talk nonsense." Leng Yu glared at her.

Then, ignore her and continue chatting with Lin Xin.

"Okay, just don't mention it in the future, it's my fault."

The tone is a bit coaxing.

Lin Xin read these few lines and rolled around on the bed, her heart was full of joy. It was the first time she saw Leng Yu give her such a message. Does this seem to be coaxing herself?

Her heart suddenly became unstable. Could this be the feeling of liking someone?

When the person he likes softens his attitude towards him, he laughs like a fool.

Lin Xin was becoming less and less resistant to this strange feeling, on the contrary she was a little happy.This kind of feeling is constantly growing, and it is more like alcohol, the longer the time, the better the taste, and the more mellow and strong it is.

She did a lot of research on this weird feeling for herself on the Internet, and she came to the conclusion that this is liking.

Seeing that the other party didn't reply for a long time, Leng Yu thought she was angry and was very anxious. She typed a line: "Lin Xin, are you angry?"

Seeing another message from the other side, Lin Xin smiled and was about to reply when she saw another message from the other side.

"Lin Xin, forgive me?"

So, she typed a message.

"If you want my forgiveness, you agree to go climbing with us."

One second after the message was sent, I got a reply immediately: "OK."

Lin Xin stared at the word "good" for a long time.Although there is only one word, it seems to have infinite attraction, because that word makes her feel that Leng Yu treats her. . .

So obedient.

Well, I think too much, and I'm a little self-indulgent.

Lin Xin tossed and turned on the bed, and suddenly remembered that Leng Yu had said that there is someone she likes, and her mood suddenly fell to the bottom because of this thought.

Alas, I don't know who that lucky person will be.

On the other side, Leng Yu saw that Lin Xin hadn't replied to her again. After reading her WeChat messages repeatedly, she didn't quit WeChat until she was satisfied with what she read.

She thought of the towns that Ding Zhenghong mentioned that day.So, he opened the page and entered the villages and towns he mentioned. After entering "scorpion farm", a message came out that made Leng Yu's eyes widen.

"The city's scorpion farms were hit by a fire, and a total of seven people were killed in the fire."

Leng Yu looked at the date, and she counted it in her mind. There was a gap of 16 years between the year when the fire occurred and this year.

And Xu Linglong also left China 16 years ago and came to country M.
