I'm waiting for you in the wind and snow

Chapter 256 Don't Want To Face The Answer
It was already 07:30 in the evening. Through the window, I saw several official vehicles driving out of the police station, and Wang Xiaoling, who had never spoken, received a call the next moment.

After receiving it, she said to me: "There was a fight in the ancient city, I'm going to deal with it... You go back first, the business department is responsible for fines, you can go to the business side to deal with it tomorrow."

I subconsciously picked up the ledger.

But Wang Xiaoling pressed my hand and said, "Leave the ledger, this is an important evidence, and I will pass it on to the higher authorities... In addition, anyone who has a relationship with your friend recently may be asked to assist in the investigation , I hope you can cooperate a little by then."

I looked at Wang Xiaoling and replied, "Without the account book, I can't just go to the industrial and commercial department to pay the money, right?"

"Come to the police station tomorrow, and I'll give you a copy."

"Let's make a copy now. I remember that the Industrial and Commercial Bureau is at Xiaguan, and then go around to the ancient city to get a copy. I'm afraid that half a day will not be enough."

"Alright, I'll find a colleague to copy it for you."

I thought about it, and then asked again: "After copying, can you stamp the official seal of your police station on the copy? I'm afraid the industry and commerce will not recognize it."

"Until the authenticity of the ledger is verified, it is impossible for us to stamp the ledger...and the industrial and commercial side has to verify the ledger, so whether it can be dealt with immediately depends on the attitude of that side, but I will Before that, pass on the opinions of our police station to them..." After a short pause, Wang Xiaoling said again: "Let me tell you this, the main reason for letting you go to the industrial and commercial side is to let them see your positive attitude and actions , you can judge at your own discretion in the future, and it is not really possible to give you any immediate results."

"How can it be so complicated?"

"It used to be not so complicated, but now the nature has changed, so we have to deal with it according to the standards of criminal cases... If your friend is confirmed as a criminal, the final result will be decided by the court, so even if you have the ability If you pay this money for your friend, you may not be able to pay it out."

"What if he was wronged?"

Wang Xiaoling glanced at me, but left the office without answering.

……

The first thing he did when he left the police station was to review the photocopied account book again. If Tetsuo really allowed others to take drugs on purpose, this should be reflected in the account book, and he should charge much higher than usual Otherwise, it would be logically unreasonable, because during the Chinese New Year period, the rooms in the inn are not worried about selling. If the same fee is charged, why would he take such a big risk to take in these drug addicts and prostitutes?
And judging from the fact that he hid the account book, it proved that the law has a deterrent effect in his heart. Even if he was stupid, he would not engage in such a loss-making business.

Looking at it from another perspective, if there are really drug addicts among these tenants, there is no reason for them to tell Tetsuo that he is addicted to drugs or whoring, anyway, these are things they do behind closed doors.

I feel that there are too many doubts in this, and the ledger can give the answer to a certain extent, so this is why Wang Xiaoling attaches so much importance to the ledger.

I read it several times, but I didn't find any abnormal accounts, which further proves that my judgment is correct... Even if someone is really engaged in illegal activities in Tetsuo's inn, then he should be passive or Accepted without knowing it.

Or, dirty behavior is not recorded on the ledger.

When I was lighting a cigarette, I thought of another possibility...Because Tie Nan knew too many idlers in the society in Dali, it is not impossible that there is a relationship of benefit transfer behind the filth .

And this is the worst kind of assumption, because this is a deliberate crime for the purpose of earning profits, and it is a particularly bad type.

……

After speculating on myself for a long time, I called Taozi again and asked about the second-hand house that Tetsuo had taken a fancy to before. Although Taozi didn't know why I asked this suddenly, she still gave me the address of that house .

I immediately rode a motorcycle to the community where the house was located. After seeing the hardware facilities of this community, I had a particularly bad premonition in my heart, because this is a very high-end community in Dali.

I asked the security guard. The average price of the house with a yard outside that Tetsuo was looking for was 2 yuan per square meter, and a 70-square-meter house cost 140 million yuan.Even if only the down payment is required, about 40 yuan in cash is required; however, Tetsuo's book profit is less than 19 yuan.

Where did he get the 20 in cash?

It seems that the incident of being reported was not groundless.

……

Unknowingly, the night fell completely on this city, and there was endless sound of firecrackers outside the ancient city. I seemed to see countless smiling faces blooming because of the family reunion in the sound of firecrackers...

But I feel very tired because of this, not only because of Tetsuo, but also because of my own situation... I have been running around all day long, so I will not talk about being tired, and my inn has accumulated a lot of things that I have not dealt with; Just 10 minutes ago, I received a call from the cleaning lady, saying that a guest wanted to check out because there was no hot water supply in the room.

It is impossible for me to rush back to deal with it at this time, so I can only ask the cleaning lady to check out the guest for me. Originally, this guest booked a room for three days. If no other guests come in later, it will be a loss of nearly 5000 yuan. .

I also need to hire a water and electricity master to find out where the problem of no hot water is.

In a hurry, he called the master, but the master clearly refused, because it is the Chinese New Year, and he wants to be with his wife and children more, and this kind of company cannot be exchanged for money.

I was suddenly very afraid of the night, it seemed that all the troubles occurred in the night; what was even more frightening was that the air soaked in the night was full of bleakness and loneliness, which made people feel unbearable!
If I am like this, what about Tie Nan and Tao Zi at this moment?

I was willing to think differently, so I cheered up again at the next moment, riding a motorcycle, driving to "Ma Jiuyi" while piercing through the night.

……

After seeing Taozi, I did not hide that Tetsuo had allowed others to take drugs and whoring, and told her everything I knew. Taozi was emotionally broken and sat on the sofa without saying a word...

After going on like this for half an hour, I finally said to Taozi: "You are the closest person to Tetsuo, please remember carefully, is there any abnormal person or abnormal phenomenon in the inn?"

Tao Zi looked at me blankly.

Yang Sisi, who was sitting beside her, repeated my words again.

Only then did Tao Zi show the look of reminiscence, and said to me after a while: "About two weeks ago, a foreigner came to the inn. There are quite a lot of foreigners who came to Dali. I didn't pay much attention at first, but later For a few days, a different woman would enter and leave his room every one or two days..."

I asked with concern: "How long has he lived here?"

"It took more than a week, and I didn't check out until two days before the accident."

"Are there any other abnormal people?"

"There was also a guest from Malaysia, one person with two women, and when I helped the housekeeper clean the room, I found a disposable syringe in their room."

I patted my leg heavily and said, "You are so confused, how come such things have not been taken seriously?"

"I mentioned it to Tie Nan, but Tie Nan said that we don't care about what people do with the door closed..."

I shook my head helplessly...

Tao Zi choked up and said, "It's my fault, and I'm also responsible. I saw this kind of thing too much when I was working in Shanghai, so I dealt with it with a nonchalant attitude..."

Yang Sisi looked at Tao Zi with puzzled eyes, and asked, "Sister, what kind of job did you do when you were in Shanghai? Why is it common for you to see such dirty things?"

When a person breaks down, the mouth is easy to lose control, and Yang Sisi is a woman who likes to gossip, so she just asked Taozi who was caught off guard.

I took the conversation and said to Yang Sisi: "Now is not the time to dwell on the past...don't ask so many questions."

Yang Sisi glanced at Tao Zi, and then chose to remain silent...

For a moment, I felt bored again. She saw what Tao Zi said, and she worked in bars in the ancient city most of the time, so how many things did she not see?

At this time, I have already begun to doubt the authenticity of this account book, and the matter is far from being as simple as it seems on the surface... To say that Tetsuo is also a scheming person. Tao Zi by the pillow also concealed it, and even made a fake account book...Of course, the account book may be true, but the abnormal income is not reflected in the account book.

But even so, it at least shows that Tetsuo is consciously engaging in criminal activities.

But what I don't understand is how did he hook up with these people, and how did the innkeeper who reported him know?It must be said that he has kept this matter secret enough.

I want to know the answer, but I don't want to face the answer...
