Lin Che drove Mu Yang to Binjiangzhixin Community. Seeing that Mu Yang kept looking down at the transcript of Sun Fangfang's interrogation in the morning, Lin Che looked at it several times, endured it for a while, and then said, "Don't read in the car, it will hurt your eyes."
"
Mu Yang curled his lips and smiled, without looking away from the thing in his hand, "It's okay, Officer Lin, I usually don't look at it."
The car was very quiet, except for the sound of Mu Yang flipping papers. When waiting for the traffic light, Lin Che asked, "Last time you told Li Li that you had finished your research?"
Lin Che looked at the bureau's approval documents for Mu Yang as a case consultant. She was actually only 21 years old. If she were to study at a normal age, she should be in her sophomore or junior year now.
Mu Yang nodded, and before Lin Che could continue to ask, she took the initiative to speak, "I skipped a grade in elementary school and junior high school, so I am younger than other classmates."
Lin Che turned her head and glanced at Mu Yang. How did she know she wanted to ask this? Could it be that she could really read minds?!
The smile on Mu Yang's lips widened a bit, "Officer Lin, don't feel weird. In fact, based on your question, your professional habits and your tone of voice, it's not difficult to guess what you want to ask."
Lin Che's right eyebrow raised slightly, "I didn't think it was strange at first, but after you said it, I got a little curious."
"There are specialties in the arts. After all, this is my field, so I naturally have to be good at it. Just like the process of solving a crime that you think is very simple, I think it is magical when I look at it."
Lin Che said no more because she had arrived at the place.
Lin Che was just about to drive the car to the community when a small white hand tugged at his windbreaker jacket and said, "Officer Lin, can we go to Ahua's canteen first?"
Lin Che was slightly startled. At this age, no girl had ever spoken to him in such a tone. It felt a bit strange, but he couldn't refuse.
"good."
The car stopped at the entrance of the alley.
A narrow alley separates two different worlds - one side is a high-end apartment complex that is hard to buy for a lot of money, and the other side is a mixed-race old and run-down urban village.
Lin Che just got out of the car and looked up to see the brand new surveillance camera installed at the entrance of the convenience store.
Liu Ahua, who was sitting at the counter, saw Lin Che and walked out immediately. In addition to fear, her expression was more concerned, "Comrade police, have you found out Xiao Zhou's matter? Is it because she can't think about it, or is someone harming her?"
"Let's wait for the police report." Lin Che replied businesslikely.
"Oh, okay, okay..."
Liu Ahua was a little disappointed, but she didn't say anything. She just nodded, took two relatively good apples, and handed them to Lin Che and Mu Yang.
Lin Che subconsciously refused, but Mu Yang took the apple naturally and said, "Thank you, auntie." After saying that, he took a crisp bite and said, "This apple is so sweet!"
Liu Ahua had a simple smile on her face, "This apple is 50 cents more expensive than other apples. No preservatives are sprayed on it. It's delicious!"
Mu Yang looked at the neatly arranged fruits and vegetables and said, "No wonder Zhou Xinyu would rather walk a few more steps to come to your store to buy things. Auntie, your fruits and vegetables are indeed very fresh!"
When Mu Yang mentioned Zhou Xinyu, the smile on Liu Ahua's face slowly disappeared and was replaced by sadness, "Actually, there is a large supermarket downstairs from Xiao Zhou's house. The location here is remote and there are not many kinds of things. Xiao Zhou deliberately took a detour here.
To take care of my business."
Liu Ahua said, raised her hand and pressed her red eyes, "I wasn't sure at first, but later Mrs. Zhang, who runs a mahjong parlor, told me that this little Zhou is really strange. I saw her several times before I came out of the supermarket. Why?"
He went to my little shop to buy something again. Only then did I know that Xiao Zhou wanted to help me."
Liu Ahua pressed the roll with her disabled right hand, pulled it a little, and wiped her tears. She could see that Zhou Xinyu's death made her feel very guilty.
From the last interview, Liu Ahua probably guessed that there was something wrong with the milk Zhou Xinyu bought from her store. She blamed herself for not providing useful information, so she spent hundreds of yuan to install this surveillance camera.
"Auntie, if Zhou Xinyu wants to help you, why not give you money directly?"
Mu Yang asked directly, and Liu Ahua was not angry. She just waved her hand, "Xiao Zhou is not that kind of person. I know she must be very rich, but she will not use money to insult others. She is really very careful.
A girl who buys magazines gives notebooks to my daughter. She doesn’t cook, so she gives me the rice, flour, grains and oils that she won at the supermarket. Sometimes I feel embarrassed to give her a few kilograms of fruit. Every few days
When she is free, she will come and make up for my daughter’s homework..."
The more she recalled, the more Liu Ahua couldn't control her tears.
Mu Yang gently patted Liu Ahua's shoulder and asked, "Auntie, how is Zhou Xinyu's condition when she comes to buy things recently? For example, does she talk less or look unhappy?"
Liu Ahua thought about it carefully and shook her head, "No, Xiao Zhou likes to laugh. At the end of last month, Xiao Zhou came to buy things. My daughter happened to be watching a piano competition on TV, and Xiao Zhou even offered to teach her.
Where’s the piano?”
Leaving the convenience store, the two of them walked towards the heart of the riverside. As they walked, Mu Yang lowered his head to record some key points of the conversation on his mobile phone.
"Why didn't you remember just now?"
"Because when talking, I need to observe the other person's expression, eyes and movements."
Lin Che nodded, "I'll help you remember it later."
"No need, I can remember the content. What I remember is the key points that need to be summarized later."
Lin Che glanced at Mu Yang's mobile phone out of the corner of her eye. There were many logic diagrams on the screen, and there seemed to be mathematical models. It looked very professional and difficult.
This was the first time that Lin Che felt that she had no use for herself.
The two of them chatted with the community security guard and the floor cleaning lady, and the content was similar to what they had talked with Liu Ahua before.
"Where to go now?"
Mu Yang pointed to a page of Sun Fangfang's interrogation transcript, "I want to go to these places, check the surveillance, and talk to the waiters."
Lin Che frowned slightly. Just when she was about to ask why she wanted to check all this, Mu Yang saw through his thoughts and said, "According to Sun Fangfang, Zhou Xinyu was in a very bad mood in those few days. If there is surveillance, it can be captured
When I see them, I can support my psychological assessment from Zhou Xinyu's expression, pace, and conversation."
"And this-"
Mu Yang tore off a list from his notebook and handed it to Lin Che, "Officer Lin, can you ask other police officers to help me find these people to ask a few questions? It's very simple, just ask them about their impressions of Zhou Xinyu and Sun Fangfang, and
The most memorable thing for them is just one thing."
Lin Che took a look at the list. There were more than ten people, including two high school classmates and teachers, college roommates, club friends, and colleagues after work.
"Oh, and can you find out the reason why Sun Fangfang was transferred from Jiangzhou to Huzhou?"
Lin Che looked at Mu Yang, "You pay so much attention to Sun Fangfang, is there something wrong with her?"
Mu Yang pursed his lips and frowned slightly, "I'm not sure yet. I hope I'm overthinking it."
"I know, I'll let them check it out."
Lin Che looked away from Mu Yang's face, took out her mobile phone, and explained these things. Others in the office were also confused and did not understand the purpose of doing this.
