Everything starts with meeting Ⅱ

The weather in City F made Lin Yao unbearable. The heat without any humidity was enough to turn people into steam.Lin Yao really doubts, has the water in this city been squeezed dry by something?It's also too dry.

Early the next morning, Lin Yao drove to an advertising company.The company is not big, and the person in charge was quickly found.

The 40-year-old man looked at Lin Yao. He couldn't believe that this handsome man was a policeman, and he couldn't believe that Ni Mei was dead or murdered.

"Mr. Huo, did you hear my question?" Lin Yao reminded the stunned manager.

Manager Huo was taken aback for a moment, and then said: "Sorry, I was distracted. That's all right, I'll ask the director who shot the commercial for Ni Mei at the time, and they know the specifics better than me."

Lin Yao thought about it, so he sat in the office and waited patiently. After a while, a fashionable man in his early thirties was brought in. When he saw Lin Yao at first sight, he almost jumped at him.

"Sir, which company's model are you, please transfer to us, I will definitely..."

Lin Yao impatiently showed his police officer ID, but the other party immediately shut his mouth in surprise!At this time, Manager Huo came over to explain Lin Yao's purpose, and Lin Yao had no patience to comfort the director who was dumbfounded by the news of Ni Mei's death.

Patiently watching the director wake up from the shock, Lin Yao directly said, "Is it convenient to talk in another place?"

"Ah. Good, good."

In a certain coffee shop, Lin Yao put the recorder on the table, waiting for the director's answer.

"Meimei is the main character in that ad, and Kiki also has a lot of scenes. The whole filming took about a week. If it wasn't for them rushing to participate in the competition, it would have been postponed for a few days."

"Did you have any filming work on the 25th of last month?" Lin Yao continued to ask.

"Yes, that day was a street and gym scene."

"From what time to what time? How many times did you take a break? Has Ni Mei ever left?"

"From seven o'clock in the morning to ten o'clock in the evening. There were about four or five times of rest in the middle, I can't remember the specifics. Meimei basically rested in the makeup car when she was not filming."

"When and when was her last rest?"

"I can't remember. I'm so busy at work that I don't notice anything else. You can ask the person in charge of makeup for Meimei, because the makeup artist can best control her time if she needs to touch up makeup and change clothes at any time."

"Okay, thank you. Here's my number, you can call me anytime if you think of anything."

Taking the name and address given by the director, I walked around the city for a long time before I found the company's makeup artist.This woman basically doesn't go to work, and only rushes out when she receives a task.When she heard that Ni Mei was killed, her face turned pale instantly, and she even felt an indelible sense of fear towards Lin Yao.

Lin Yao was used to such an attitude, so he asked calmly, "Calm down?"

The woman realized her gaffe, nodded apologetically, and made way for Lin Yao to enter her home.

Lin Yao himself is not a person who is willing to deal with the opposite sex, unless there is a necessary reason, he will deliberately say some polite words, but the current situation does not need to do so.He brought news of death, and whatever was said was vain consolation to the living.Therefore, Lin Yao straight to the point and asked: "I just want to ask you, during the filming on the 25th, did you notice that Ni Mei disappeared for a long time?"

"The longest was staying in the car for two hours."

"What time?"

"Around three o'clock in the afternoon."

"Is there no other time?"

"No. She is accompanied by me and the dresser. If she leaves the scene for a long time, we will definitely know."

"why?"

"How to put it, costumes and makeup need to be protected in summer, and we can't let actors leave at will."

"When did you get your jobs? Did Ni Mei leave with you too?"

"It's almost nine o'clock."

Lin Yao was a little puzzled, and asked, "Didn't you say you didn't accept until ten o'clock?"

"That's the staff. I and some of the actors, including Meimei, left first. After the remaining staff cleaned up the scene, it was around ten o'clock."

"Have you known Ni Mei for a long time?"

"We've known each other for more than two years, but we haven't had much contact."

"How is she evaluated in the industry in this city, and how is her relationship with the opposite sex?"

"It's not bad. I only know that she has a boyfriend who has been dating since college. I haven't heard of other scandals."

"Last question, where did Ni Mei live during filming?"

"Stay with us in the hotel, she has a room by herself."

Lin Yao regained his spirits immediately, and left in a hurry after asking about Ni Mei's room number in the hotel.

On the way, Lin Yao called Manager Huo, and after some inquiries, he learned that the hotel had signed a perennial contract with the advertising company, and when it was necessary to sleep out, the company would arrange crew members to live in that hotel .In this way, the investigation work is much easier.

The traffic situation in City F was very bad, and the main road started to be jammed before noon. Lin Yao became more and more impatient looking at the time, and asked the taxi driver how long it would take to get there. He yawned and said that it would take 10 minutes to drive.

The distance doesn't seem to be far, so it's better to walk than to wait here.After making up his mind, Lin Yao got out of the taxi under the scorching sun.

What the hell, why is this place so hot?Lin Yao took off his coat and walked quickly on the road in only a short-sleeved T-shirt.Most of the pedestrians passing by were girls holding umbrellas. When they saw Lin Yao, nine out of ten would pay more attention. Such a handsome man is rare.

He didn't pay attention to the gazes around him, but was tortured enough by the weather.Lin Yao really couldn't stand the hot weather, so he bought a bottle of ice water on the side of the road and sat aside to rest for a while.A man and a woman were talking and laughing not far away. The girl seemed to have twisted her ankle while walking. The boyfriend insisted on carrying her on his back. The girl blushed and pushed. It seems to have no effect on them.Seeing the boy half-forced the girl on his back, the girl held up a parasol for her boyfriend.Lin Yao suddenly remembered his own.

He raised his head and looked at the clouds in the sky, feeling empty and uncomfortable.If Situ was by his side at this time, would he be forced not to sit in the sun and be dried like fish?Will you come up with any weird ways to escape the heat?Or, will he hold a parasol by himself?

A ray of sunlight dazzled Lin Yao's eyes, and a wave of longing swept across Liu Guang in an instant.

A faint smile spread across his handsome face, and Lin Yao started to walk again without hesitation.Recalling Situ's words in my heart: You can't stop just because you have entanglements.Yes, can't stop, they all rely on each other.No matter where you are or what environment you are in, the most beautiful place is to have him in your heart.

It took Lin Yao several twists and turns to find a waiter who knew about it when he was young.

"Please recall carefully, what time did the guest staying in room 25 come back on the night of the 102th?"

The waiter didn't think much, and said directly: "It's almost eleven o'clock in the evening. She called and said that the hot water was out. I happened to be on duty at that time."

"Did you go to her room to bring hot water?"

"No, the hot water she mentioned is bath water. I just checked with the front desk to see if the rooms on the first floor have stopped supplying hot water."

"Have you seen the guest since then?"

"I've seen it. I was leading a few guests who had just checked in to find a room, and I ran into that woman and a man going out together."

man?Lin Yao put a question mark in his heart, and then asked: "What did they look like at that time?"

"It seems to be a quarrel. The man is almost pulling the woman. Both of them look bad."

"What time was that?"

"I think it's almost one o'clock in the morning."

This is an undiscovered clue, and Lin Yao is almost a little excited.He took out his mobile phone, called up a photo to show the waiter, and asked, "Is it this man?"

"No."

no?Obviously, my intuition was wrong.So, Lin Yao pulled out another photo and asked, "Is it this person?"

"That's right, that's the man."

Before the excitement cooled down, Lin Yao realized that this clue might not be as precious as he thought.

After leaving the hotel, Lin Yao pondered.At about one o'clock in the morning on the night of the 25th, Ni Mei and her ex-boyfriend left the hotel, and then, where did they go?According to the colleague who came to investigate Ni Mei's ex-boyfriend, the ex-boyfriend was alone in the bar on the night of the 25th and got drunk until dawn. There are also a lot of witnesses, so naturally there is no time to commit the crime.But the problem is that this man went out with Ni Mei at one o'clock in the morning, and his colleagues never found out about it.Is it missed, or someone deliberately concealed it?

Thinking of this, Lin Yao called the serious crimes team and asked Tang Shuo to pass over all the information about Ni Mei's ex-boyfriend.Tang Shuo also worriedly asked: "Brother Lin, I know you have a laptop, but do you know how to use it?"

Lin Yao's head was full of black lines, and he said displeasedly: "I'm not that stupid yet. You send it to my mailbox, and I'll go back to the hotel right away."

Already having a plan for the next step, Lin Yao called a taxi and returned to the hotel where he was staying, then hurriedly turned on the computer to check the relevant information.

According to the information, Ni Mei's ex-boyfriend is named "Xu Liang", a local, and a graduate student of the Chinese Department of F University.In addition to these basic information, there are also Xu Liang's usual friends and family information on the information. After reading this person's information, Lin Yao felt that this was an ordinary person who could not be more ordinary.It's just that Lin Yao finds it strange that according to the information, Xu Liang's family's financial conditions are very good, but he himself owes a lot of debts.

It seems that I must meet Xu Liang.

In the afternoon, Lin Yao rushed to F University, and it took a lot of time and thought to find out that Xu Liang didn't go to school at all recently. Someone provided the name of a bar, saying that since Xu Liang's girlfriend had an accident, he always hang out in There.

Lin Yao left F University without stopping, and hurriedly hailed a taxi.On the way to the bar, I have been thinking about another thing. If my guess is correct, then Situ may not have noticed the problem of going astray, but what is going on in his mind? Even he himself would not have expected it.In other words, if Situ's actions have not changed, it means...

"Sir, here we are."

The driver's voice interrupted Lin Yao's train of thought. He turned his head and looked outside. There was a signboard on a black door, which was exactly the place he was looking for.

Pushing open the black door, I found that there were very few people inside, including the bartender standing at the bar, there were only three people.The bartender was a 27-year-old man. When he saw Lin Yao push the door open, he was slightly taken aback, and then said gently, "Welcome."

Lin Yao walked to the bar and saw a glass on the bar with half a glass of wine in it. The back of the swivel chair opposite to the wine glass was facing the bar. Lin Yao moved it to the right position without taking a seat. He just sat down casually. Ask: "Is Xu Liang still here?"

The bartender smiled and said nothing, and looked at Lin Yao meaningfully.Who is Lin Yao, the meaning of the other party's eyes is very clear, but he is disgusted.So he directly showed his ID and asked, "What time is Xu Liang coming?"

The bartender didn't seem to be interested in Lin Yao's ID, he was still smiling, but he was willing to speak: "He won't come until evening."

"What time is it?"

"Come back after nine if you want to see him."

Lin Yao didn't talk nonsense anymore. Just as he was about to leave, a dozen or so men with unkind faces suddenly came in from outside, all of them holding things in their hands.Come in and shout: "Call that kid Xu Liang out!"

Although Lin Yao had a cold face, he felt a little funny in his heart, and said: I wanted to pray for mantis to catch cicadas, but it seems that there is no need for this.
