ICS Homicide Tracking

Chapter 82 5-14 High Dedication

The decoration of Shi Han's house is minimal, but there is a very inappropriate grandfather clock in the living room, which Li Qi found in an antique shop.

"Send the clock?" Shi Han looked at the antique clock that Li Qi sent, and raised his eyebrows.

Li Qigan laughed twice, "Don't you don't wear a watch? Buy a clock for you! It's an antique, and you are also an antique, so match it!"

Shi Han laughed, kept the bell, and drove Li Qi out.

But because it was a gift from a friend, Shi Han kept the clock.His family lives on the top floor, usually very quiet, the sound of the clock is particularly obvious.

The pendulum shakes regularly, and the pointer rotates on the dial, and the sound repeats every moment.It is said that this old antique has been around for some years, but the craftsman adjusted it slightly, and it is still very precise, firmly grasping every inch of time.

Near twelve o'clock at midnight, the sound of the clock is more obvious, probably because the tone is slightly heavier, and the time is rushed. When the pointer finally stops at zero, the grandfather clock makes a dull sound, and the reverberation echoes in the room, and then the pointer ticks. After passing by, the sound seemed very weak.

Yan Ran holds Shi Han's hand, even if the light is not turned on at night, only a little moonlight from outside the window comes in, Shi Han's hand is so white that it almost reflects light, but there is an obvious red mark on the wrist of both hands, seeing the red Yin, Yan Ran felt a little regretful, and he didn't know how to measure, so he acted harder.

"You have medicine at home, right..." Yan Ran asked lightly. He wanted to get out of bed and find a bottle of Yunnan Baiyao to rub some for Shi Han, but when he didn't touch the ground with one foot, the other foot was caught by Shi Han. Han catches.

"Don't look for it, just rest." Shi Han spoke in a hoarse voice, and slightly opened his eyes, which were a little tired.

At this time, Shi Han agreed to whatever request he asked, and immediately went back to bed and lay down, but he didn't quite understand, could Shi Han really accept it?

Yan Ran struggled for a while, then asked, "Are you... all right?"

"Hmm..." Shi Han's half-dream and half-awake words were a bit naive, and he didn't have the strength to argue with Yan Ran.

Seeing Shihan who fell asleep, Yan Ran boldly stretched out his arms to hug Shihan, he gave Shihan the answer, but this heavy sense of happiness also fell in his heart.

It was rare for Shi Han to get up late one day, thinking that he had no experience last night, and made Shi Han stay up all night, Yan Ran didn't feel the nerve to wake him up, so he quietly got up to help Shi Han make breakfast, and set the alarm clock for half an hour before Go out to school.

Even if Yan Ran has good grades in exams and is a good student among his teachers, like many of his classmates, he has the syndrome of rebellious reading when he wakes up in the morning, but today is different, the weather is so good that even the sunshine is colorful.

"Hey! Xiao Zhu Mo! Your section chief is going to be late in five minutes because of what happened today. He is not like this usually." Wen Huan looked at the door of ICS curiously, Shi Han is not a small pacesetter who arrives early and leaves late ?Traffic jam on the road?Or was it robbed?It turned out to be an hour later than usual!

Zhu Mo didn't know what was going on, and the section chief didn't tell him about asking for leave today, "Could the section chief go to the scene?"

Wen Huan pointed to the toolbox at the door of the forensic office, "He didn't even take the toolbox, why did he go to the scene!"

"He's here!" Zhou Xiaofan stared at the monitor, and finally saw Shi Han's car pull into the ICS parking lot. Seeing that it only took half a minute for him to park, he sighed, "When I'm taking my driver's license test, can I find Shi Han's car?" Section chief as a teacher?"

When Shi Han stepped into ICS, everyone in the office area was staring at him, he coughed uncomfortably, turned around and hurried to his office with his head down.

"Tsk tsk tsk." Wen Huan was speechless, "I will be late in the future, and I won't be afraid of finding an excuse anymore."

"According to my observation..." Yuan Xin popped up suddenly and said meaningfully, "Shi Han is wearing yesterday's tie!"

Shihan is a walking home of waves. He changes clothes and ties every day, but there are rules to follow, with a cycle of one week, and a different color every day.This guy has to bring several sets of clothes for business trips, but it has never happened that he wears the same tie for two consecutive days.

"Could it be?" Yuan Xin raised his eyebrows.

Wen Huan looked at him, and also raised her eyebrows, "Could it be what?"

Yuan Xin made an eight on his chin, always feeling that a small light bulb should appear on the top of his head, and then he widened his eyes and said: "Xin Xin once touched black ceramics! He forgot to wash clothes!"

"..." Wen Huan laughed, the corners of his eyes twitching slightly, he returned to Zhou Xiaofan and continued to eat breakfast.

Yuan Xin felt that his reasoning was well-founded, and when he saw Wen Huan ignoring him, he said angrily, "You are just jealous of my intelligence!"

Yuan Rong couldn't stand it anymore, so she hurried out of the laboratory and dragged his brother away.

Shi Han listened to the noise outside, and didn't want to come forward to give any explanation. The reason why he didn't change his tie was because he found that he was going to be late when he got up this morning, so he just grabbed one and came.

He sat in his seat and took it easy for a while. Facing the unfinished work, he was a little restless.

I don't know what Yanran is doing at this time? "Ahem." Shi Han came to his senses, pinching his forehead helplessly, otherwise he would think too much and find something to distract him immediately.

By the way, Li Qi has been in C City for a while, and I don't know if he has found anything.Thinking about it, Shi Han dialed Li Qi's number.

"Hello?" Li Qi had just come out of the hotel when he answered the phone.

Shi Han leaned on the chair, crossed his legs, and asked Li Qi, "What did you find?"

Li Qi found a place to sit down, took two sips of water to quench his thirst, it will be winter soon, why is it still like this, the weather this year is too strange.

Hearing Shi Han's question, Li Qi replied: "I visited the hotel where Wei Tingshen was on a business trip, and went to the hotels of Wen Hong and Gao Xian, and now I just came out of the hotel where the renter rented a car. The distance between the three hotels is quite far. , and I didn’t see him visiting the other party’s hotel.”

"The three stores are far away." Shi Han heard the words and called up the map of City C.

Li Qi heard what Shi Han was going to say, and continued, "The principle of the triangle, if there is a connection between them, it should be in this triangle. I'll take a break and continue to look for clues."

Shi Han responded, then remembered something, and said, "Look for a high-end place with a lot of people."

"High-end? Shouldn't there be fewer customers in high-end places? Not everyone is wealthy." Li Qi spread the map on the ground and squatted in front of it.

Shi Han explained: "Wei Tingshen will not condescend easily."

Because of this, when he heard that Wei Tingshen ate at the cafeteria with Yan Ran, he realized that Yan Ran might really mean a lot to Wei Tingshen.

After all, Shi Han knew Wei Tingshen better than himself, so Li Qi wrote down his words, screened them to a few places, and then said to Shi Han on the other end of the phone: "Yes, I know where to look for it. Informing you."

"En." Shi Han responded, and when he was about to hang up, he heard Li Qi speak again.

"I heard from Yuan Xin that you didn't change your tie today? Something happened?" When Li Qi spoke, his face was full of energy. Life is so hard, gossip is his motivation.

But Li didn't wait for Shi Han's answer, but waited for the sound of the phone hanging up, Shi Han dealt with him casually, and he didn't doubt it now.On the contrary, now that Shi Han was in a hurry to hang up, Li Qi felt more and more that there was a problem, no, he had to solve the matter at hand immediately, and went back to ICS to catch someone to ask in person.

Thinking about it, Li Qi looked at the map, selected a few locations with a pen in his hand, drank the last sip of water in the mineral water bottle, put away the map and rushed towards the destination.

"Excuse me, have you met any of these people?"

"Miss, I want to ask, have you seen this person?"

"..."

Li Qi ran around for a day without asking any questions. He thought that maybe the way he asked was dissatisfied with the other party, so he sat in his seat and planned to order something to ease the atmosphere before asking questions, but he looked at the menu handed over by the waiter. , suddenly dumbfounded, embarrassed and politely said: "Waiter, please give me a cup... cold for nothing."

"Oh." The waiter gave him a cold look, and poured him a glass of cold water. Just by looking at this guest's clothes, he knew that he was someone who couldn't afford it.

Seeing that the waiter turned around to receive other guests, Li Qi's heart sank, he gritted his teeth, and said, "A cup of latte."

His words finally called the waiter to him again.Looking at the customer with a pained expression, the waiter said knowingly: "Are you here to find someone?"

Li Qi raised his eyes to look at him, "You are quite good at winking, it's a pity to be a waiter."

Then, he took out four photos and pushed them in front of the waiter, asking, "Have you seen them?"

The waiter just took a look and said lightly: "We cannot disclose the information of the guests."

Hearing his words, Li Qi immediately understood that he had met one of these four people, but he would definitely not give the tip, so he pretended to take out his wallet and put a certificate on the table, and asked with a smile: "Can we talk now?"

The waiter's expression froze when he saw the police officer's ID card. He didn't have the arrogance just now. He glanced at the old lady at the counter, sat on the seat opposite the customer, and whispered, "Actually, I don't know too well. In February, the two people in the photo came to our store, they didn't order anything, but they sat for a while and left."

Li Qi looked at the waiter suspiciously, and asked, "They just sat there for a while, how do you remember?"

The waiter looked at the proprietress again with some apprehension, and said in a low voice: "The two guests came and went, but our proprietress was polite to them and greeted them. I'm still puzzled."

Li Qi pointed to the photos of Wen Hong and Gao Xian and asked, "Is that them?"

The waiter shook his head, pointed to the photos of Wen Hong and Wei Tingshen and said, "It's these two people."

"Ah?" Li Qi never expected this news, and then he asked, "Can the surveillance capture this location?"

The waiter nodded, "Yes."

Li Qi nodded, and walked to the counter, wanting the boss to ask for the monitor, but she said that she would get it right away, then turned and walked into the backstage.The old lady hid in the corner and took out the phone to make a call, but Li Qi who followed took the phone away. Li Qi looked at the string of numbers on the screen, "Wen Hong's? You know Wen Hong, you are her. who?"

The old lady panted nervously and swallowed, "I... I am her college classmate."

"Why are you hiding it?" Li Qi asked.

The old lady shook her head quickly: "I don't know anything. I haven't contacted her for a long time, but one day she suddenly said that she would bring someone over for a sit-down. I really don't know what she did."

Li Qi was still suspicious, and said: "Okay, you will make a record with me later."

The old lady agreed without much hesitation. She didn't have to pay anything for someone she hadn't seen for many years. Seeing her like this, Li Qi didn't doubt it so much.

As soon as the two of them walked out of the backstage, Li Qi's cell phone rang suddenly. Seeing that it was someone from City C Bureau, he picked up the call.

"Captain Li, I found the A167B2 license plate. It was indeed driven away. The face recognition result of the car thief? It has been sent to your phone."

"Thank you!" Li Qi thanked, saw the other party hung up the phone, opened the message, and saw that the other party sent Gao Xian's photo.

The author has something to say: Shi Han: It seems that I will buy two more ties in the future and keep them in the office as spares.

Yan Ran: Why didn't you tell me, let me call you earlier?

Shihan: I'm really sleepy.
