You die and die

Full of doubts, Yuan Che returned to the office and saw that Ke Ran hadn't left yet.

"I just watched the video at 11:30 yesterday, and I really found my peripheral vision." Ke Ran adjusted the timeline of the video and pointed it to Yuan Che.

In the screen, five people from Yu Guang's studio, plus two men and three women from Yu Guang, entered the KTV at 11:34.The female assistant was in charge of negotiating with the staff, looking around from the corner of her eye, the other two female staff whispered something, and at the end was a man wearing a hat and carrying a satchel, with his head bowed and his toes pointing, watching He looked a little impatient.

Yuan Che rubbed his temples, then picked up the car keys, and hooked his fingers at Ke Ran:

"Go, we have a mission."

Ke Ran immediately picked up his things and followed Yuan Che out the door: "Going to Yu Guang's studio?"

Yuan Che glanced at Ke Ran's dark circles, but did not answer.

Ke Ran didn't ask any more questions and followed silently.

The two got into the car, drove out of the police station compound, and onto Jianguo Road.

Five minutes later, Ke Ran looked in the direction and asked in a low voice, "Aren't we going to Yu Guang's studio?"

Yuan Che glanced at Ke Ran quickly and asked, "Do you want to investigate the case, or see Yu Guang?"

Yuan Che thought in his heart, but didn't say anything.He felt more and more that Ke Ran wanted to handcuff Yu Guang more than meeting his favorite writer.

"Of course I want to investigate the case." Ke Ran hurriedly explained.

Suddenly remembered something, Yuan Che narrowed his eyes and said, "Did you find the time point of 11:30 directly?"

Ke Ran nodded and replied, "Didn't that assistant say that Yu Guang was the KTV that arrived at that time?".

Yuan Che didn't say a word, but his mind was searching quickly.

He didn't seem to have mentioned when Yu Guang arrived at the KTV all day today, nor did he mention the content of the chat with his assistant.The assistant yesterday was right about this matter, but it wasn't Ke Ran who met the assistant with him yesterday.This Ke Ran has always had the habit of recording, but the other Ke Ran has not.So every time around this one looks confused.

But this time, he didn't seem to be completely ignorant.

Yuan Che asked suddenly: "Do you drink coffee?"

Ke Ran shook his head: "I don't drink it. I don't sleep well, and I can't fall asleep when I drink coffee." Ke Ran looked at the buildings flashing by outside the car window, and turned to Yuan Che, "Where is this going?"

"Does it look familiar?" Yuan Che continued without waiting for Ke Ran's answer, "It's fine for me to monitor myself. Go back to sleep."

"Oh." Ke Ran replied, sounding a little disappointed, "I can't sleep even when I go back, so why don't you do something useful."

"I've always had insomnia at a young age. Have you been to a doctor?"

"I've seen it, and I've taken a lot of medicine. It doesn't work."

"How long have you been like this?"

"It's been years."

"I ran all day today, so I should be able to sleep well."

Ke Ran didn't say anything, but turned to look outside the car.

Yuan Che asked again: "You won't run around again tonight, will you?"

"..."

Ke Ran turned back to look at Yuan Che, blinked his eyes, smiled wryly and turned his head to look out the window.

After sending Ke Ran back to the bureau, Yuan Che ate some dried fruit from KTV, and began to watch from the corner of his eye when they entered the private room.

During this period, Yu Guang came out once at around 3:10, his feet were already a little wobbly, and he returned to the private room after [-] minutes, and he came out again in less than [-] minutes, this time he leaned on the wall to go to the toilet.Coming out of the toilet, he was supposed to turn right to return to his private room, but he turned to the left out of the corner of his eye, and walked out of the last surveillance screen.

If you just look at this picture, you will be confused from the corner of your eye and go in the wrong direction.

Yuan Che was recalling the maze-like route of the entire KTV in his mind, when his phone vibrated.Ke Ran sent a picture message, attached below: This is the KTV fire escape route map, maybe it can be used.

Yuan Che laughed, this kid is really a roundworm in his stomach.

After studying this picture carefully, after comparing it, I found that after turning left out of the corner of my eye, I could reach the back door by an arc, and the room where Luo Meijiao was found was not far from the back door.The place where Liu Tian works is also on that arc.

But there is no monitoring in that area.

Ke Ran then sent a second message: There was a trace of a camera installed at the position corresponding to the back door, which was removed later.

Ke Ran went around the KTV today and did a lot of things.

Removing the installed camera should not be done by Yu Guang.No matter how godly he is, he wouldn't be so exaggerated in tearing things down on other people's sites.

That was removed by the store manager. He is a staff member and the head of the store. It is not difficult to find a reason to remove the camera at the back door.Mostly, it was because he was afraid of a surprise inspection by the anti-pornography team, and the back door was convenient for clients to escape.That said, there should be a spare key sitting near the rear door.And the regulars were told.

Borrowing other people's chassis to pimp, this store manager is also advanced enough.

It seems that I have to go again tomorrow to find the spare key.

Yuan Che sent Ke Ran a message, telling him that he would go to Yu Guang's studio tomorrow, and he might also visit Sheng Guangnian's house.

The last thing Yuan Che thinks about before going to sleep is, who is Ke Ran that he will meet tomorrow.

The next day, Yuan Che received a call from Ke Ran on his way to Yu Guang's studio, saying that the bus he was taking had broken down, so he might be a little late.

Yuan Che has never understood that Ke Ran's family is in good condition, and Ke Ran can drive, why didn't their family buy him a car?

But this kind of gossip was immediately disrupted by a message he received.

The message was sent by an unfamiliar phone number, and it was a text message instead of WeChat. The content was very simple: Do you have time today?Come and sit here?

This text message has no signature, no name, and no preface or afterword. In Yuan Che's view, it seems that he accidentally dialed the wrong number and sent the wrong message.

But then the second text message came: I am Zhuang Yanan, I am going to work today, but I am very free.How about you come sit down and add some popularity to me?

Yuan Che sneered, this woman's skills are first-rate.

Yuan Che didn't reply, even if he was free, he couldn't go, let alone he didn't have time.

But then the third text message came: I will tell you a secret that may be related to your case.Saw it at the signing that day.Are you coming?

It is undeniable that this bait is a bit interesting.Unfortunately, Yuan Che is not stupid.

If what she said was true, why didn't she tell it when we met at the police station?Even if she just remembered today, she might call or go to the bureau to take notes.

Asking Yuan Che to go to her psychological clinic to talk about the case that the police are handling is neither reasonable nor in compliance with the rules.

Yuan Che parked the car in the parking lot of Huijing Building, got out of the car, leaned against the car door and waited for Ke Ran.

Thinking of Ke Ran, Yuan Che took out his phone again.This Zhuang Yanan can become a consultant of the city bureau and train the police of the whole province, so he should have a relatively high professional level.I don't know if I can ask about Ke Ran.If it's reliable, let Ke Ran go to her to have a look, maybe it will help.

Thinking about it this way, it seems that it is not very good to ignore the information.Yuan Che hesitated for a while before replying: I will go when I have time.

After waiting for another 10 minutes, Ke Ran arrived. Seeing Ke Ran running over from a distance with a dazzling smile on his face like today's sunshine, Yuan Che also smiled.

He waited so hard for Ke Ran.

When Ke Ran approached, Yuan Che still didn't move.He leaned against the car, put his hands in his pockets, and asked Ke Ran with an ulterior smile:

"Did you sleep well last night?"

"Yes, so I got up late, and the car broke down. Why are you here today?"

"You don't know? Didn't he write it down?" The last time he saw Ke Ran's notepad, it contained the content of the investigation recorded by Ke Ran.

Ke Ran curled his lips: "No. I didn't have anything yesterday. I guess it's revenge. Who made me lazy and didn't write anything. He also suffered a lot." Ke Ran didn't have a hint of guilt when he spoke, " Is there anyone else here?" Ke Ran looked around.

"No. Let me ask you, how much did it cost you to hire those people the night before yesterday?"

"Who?" Ke Ran asked with wide eyes.

"Those who attacked you." Yuan Che tried his best to sound calm.

Ke Ran pointed to his nose: "Me, hire someone to beat me? Am I sick?"

Yuan Che was unmoved: "Then can you explain why you didn't do anything until I came? Why did you let them go on purpose?"

Ke Ran put away his smiling face, looked at Yuan Che, and fiddled with his hair in embarrassment: "You can see it. Why didn't you ask me that day?"

"I'll give you time to find a reasonable reason."

"There's no reason. It's just that I'm afraid you won't believe what I say. Isn't it more believable to add a little dramatic effect?"

"Just for that? To make me believe you're an eyewitness?"

"Yes, not all of them. I really wanted to visit the place of memory that day, but I was embarrassed to ask you to accompany me."

"Oh, you called me in the middle of the night and told me to rush over there, so feel free to do so. What kind of logic. And that Yu Chilin, how did he know?"

"I'm looking for him and ask him to help me."

"He will help you?"

"I didn't want it at first. But when I heard that I wanted to sneak you, I agreed."

That Yu Chilin didn't know why he always disliked him, Yuan Che sneered: "Where are those people? Acting?"

"No, they are genuine, Yu Chilin found them."

Yuan Che felt oppressed in his chest, rolled his eyes, locked the car door, and strode towards the building.

"Are you angry?" Ke Ran followed closely, looking carefully at Yuan Che's face.

"I'm not angry." Yuan Che said, "I'm angry. You'd better shut up now, lest I can't help but do it later."

Ke Ran, who was following behind, did not speak, but he could still hear the sound of suppressed laughter.

Yuan Che put his hands in his pockets and clenched them into fists.

When they reached the eleventh floor and knocked on the door of the studio, the assistant who opened the door said with apologetic expression, "I'm sorry, Mr. Yu went to collect information today. I'll be back at noon."

"It's okay, I can find you." Yuan Che expressed his anger a little bit, and his words were a little rushed.

The assistant watched in astonishment as Yuan Che walked in as if entering his own home, and it was not easy to stop him.

Yuan Che asked straight to the point: "You guys went to KTV on the 3rd at 11:30, was Yu Guang with you all the time?"

The assistant looked at Yuan Che vigilantly and asked, "What? What happened on the third day? Is it related to what I asked last time?"

Yuan Che sat down on the sofa: "It's related to another case that happened that day. Please recall the situation that day carefully."

The assistant was silent for a moment, then motioned for others to continue working, and sat diagonally across from Yuan Che and began to describe the situation that day.What she said was the same as what the store manager said. The only time she left for a long time was when Yu Guang went to the wrong room.

"He went out and didn't come back, how long was the interval?"

"Less than four or 10 minutes. I even asked the waiter to look for it in the toilet, but there was no one. As a result, Teacher Yu came out of another room, causing the people inside to yell at him."

Yuan Che looked at the only male employee in the studio who was working hard at the side, and asked the assistant: "What about the rest of you? Has anyone been away for a long time?"

"No, we basically didn't go out except to go to the toilet."

Ke Ran fiddled with a tumbler on the assistant's desk, as if asking casually:

"Hey, why did you ask the waiter to see it, and you didn't go by yourself?"

A female employee moved the tumbler and said dissatisfiedly: "What do you think? We are all girls, so we went to the men's room to find someone?"

"Isn't he a man?" Ke Ran pointed to the male staff member. The staff member looked up at Ke Ran as if he knew he was being called.

"He didn't go that day." The female assistant replied.
