Afraid

On the top sheet of the stack of papers in Shang Qingyun's hand, there is a form in the lower right corner, which records the information that this boy named Heituan has changed his name twice. His surname was named Zhang Qiran. Later, his adoptive parents had accidents one after another, and he was found by his biological parents, recognized him, and changed his name to Yangliu.

It's Yang Liu.

Shang Qingyun and Xu Shiyan looked at each other, and both saw a ray of surprise in each other's eyes.

In Hu Hui's case, Yang Liuben was one of the suspects and is still on the police search list.Now, he was found to be from the same orphanage as Hu Hui. This situation can no longer be described as a mere coincidence, because the probability is too low. It can only be said that the reason behind the tragedy of Hu Hui's mother and son is absolutely It has nothing to do with this orphanage.

Shang Qingyun and Team Xu made a copy of the files of Hu Hui and Yang Liu.Shang Qingyun made a request to Dean Qian: "Can you take us to the cafeteria that was on fire?"

This request itself was reasonable, and of course Dean Qian would not refuse.On the way to the canteen, Dean Qian said: "I heard that after the canteen caught fire, Dean Liu specially restored the canteen to its original state in the subsequent construction in order to eliminate the impact of the fire on the children. The frescoes in the past have been restored."

Shang Qingyun thought that the murals in the orphanage were just like the cartoon pictures on the walls of the courtyard, which were cute fairy tales, but when they entered the cafeteria, they realized that the murals here turned out to be stories from the Bible.

Especially on the ceiling of the cafeteria, there is a painting of "The Last Supper".The meaning of this painting probably means: The 13th person who attended the dinner was Judas, a disciple of Jesus.And he betrayed Jesus to the Jewish authorities for 30 silver dollars, causing Jesus to be tortured.This is a painting about teacher's kindness and betrayal. Let's not talk about the purpose of putting it on the ceiling of this cafeteria. The atmosphere of the whole cafeteria is enhanced by this painting to give a mysterious and weird feeling.

"Why is this painting painted on the ceiling?" Shang Qingyun turned around and asked Dean Qian, "Don't the children feel scared?"

Dean Qian said with a smile: "So far, no child feels scared. When Dean Liu ordered this painting to be customized, he just wanted the children to cherish food and learn to be grateful."

Shang Qingyun nodded and didn't ask any more questions.

Team Xu has already entered the cafeteria first, bending over from time to time to check.

Dean Qian seemed not to disturb Team Xu's inspection, and only stayed by Shang Qingyun's side.It may also be that Shang Qingyun looks more easy-going than Xu Shiyan.Dean Qian led Shang Qingyun to introduce district by district, as if he was receiving an inspection from a leader, and his words were all promoting their orphanage's idea of ​​thinking about children in every way. Shang Qingyun could also see that this Dean Qian often received the leaders.

"How often does your superior come to inspect here?" Shang Qingyun asked.

Dean Qian said: "The inspector system has only been established in the past five years, usually once a month." The implication is that there was no such thing as before.

About this point, Shang Qingyun knows more.He had accepted the commission of Mrs. Zhou before, and after investigation, he knew that Zhou's charitable organization went public five years ago through a back door. It is estimated that it was only after the listing that these management systems were gradually improved.

Although it is understandable, there are more doubts.

Shang Qingyun was thinking about it when he heard Xu Shiyan calling him: "Old Shang, come quickly." '

At this moment, Team Xu was standing behind a dining table in the northwest corner of the cafeteria.The dining table was moved away by him, exposing a large piece of floor tile next to the base of the wall.Shang Qingyun could tell at a glance that the pattern of this floor tile was different from the surrounding ones.Because the glazed surface of the floor tiles turned out to be an oil painting of the Last Supper.Moreover, the overall area of ​​the painted bricks is equivalent to four ordinary floor tiles. Although there are still a few pieces of such painted bricks on the ground, this one is arranged in the corner because it is the same as the painting on the ceiling. easy to spot.

But for those who do criminal investigation, this can be regarded as a deliberate concealment.The more deliberately hidden things may be the clues to solve the case.Therefore, when Captain Xu and Shang Qingyun saw this floor tile, they thought of a certain possibility.

Shang Qingyun turned around and asked Dean Qian: "Who usually cleans the canteen?"

"We have special cleaning staff." Dean Qian replied truthfully, not knowing why.

"How many times a day do you clean? How much time?"

"Generally speaking, they clean up once after dinner. After dinner, the canteen will close at 19:00. It will open at 7:[-] the next morning. It is a break from [-]:[-] to [-]:[-] in the afternoon, and the door will be locked. That, Is there any problem with our cafeteria?" Dean Qian asked carefully.

Shang Qingyun said: "Who has the keys to the cafeteria?"

"It's just me and Master Liu." After Dean Qian finished speaking, he added: "Master Liu is off today. If you want to know anything, I can also call him."

Shang Qingyun didn't answer, but turned to look at Xu Shiyan.

Team Xu said, "I don't need it for now. Dean Qian, please help me find a hammer."

"Oh, yes, yes." Dean Qian responded and hurriedly went to the back kitchen to find tools.At this moment, the children have finished their lunch, and the staff in the back kitchen are cleaning and disinfecting the tableware.They also saw Dean Qian bringing two policemen here just now. Although they didn't know what happened, they were always curious.Seeing Dean Qian enter the back kitchen at this moment, they came over to inquire.

However, in order to stabilize people's hearts, it is impossible for Dean Qian to tell them the truth. He only said: "Don't think too much about routine inspections. Find me a hammer, comrades in the police need to use it."

As soon as the staff heard that there was nothing new, they immediately dispersed.Someone found a toolbox and carried it out for the dean.

Team Xu tapped the floor tiles with a hammer, and Shang Qingyun chatted with the person holding the toolbox. He asked, "How many years have you been working here?"

The staff handed Shang Qingyun a cigarette and said, "Almost 20 years. I am the oldest in this cafeteria besides Old Liu." When he said this, his face was full of pride.

Shang Qingyun refused his cigarette, saying: "It's not good to smoke in the place where the children eat, so let's hold back."

Hearing this, the man quickly put away the cigarette, smiled a little embarrassedly, and said, "That's natural, we don't dare to smoke here at ordinary times. Dean Qian is in strict control," and he quickly looked at Qian Yuan After taking a long look, seeing Yard staring at him with a straight face, he wanted to leave, "Talk, I have something to do in the back kitchen."

"Wait," Shang Qingyun stopped him and asked, "How did the fire in the cafeteria start?"

The man said: "It was caused by a naughty child named Heituaner who got into the back kitchen and played with the stove. The conditions were poor back then, and we still used that kind of canned gas here, and that child also Fate, he ran outside when the gas exploded, otherwise it would be miserable..."

"Didn't you notice that child entered the cafeteria?"

"He came in during our lunch break—"

"Don't you lock the door during your lunch break?"

"It's locked," the old employee lost in memory, and said after a while, "Maybe the window wasn't closed, and he got in through the window."

Almost as soon as he finished speaking, Captain Xu said, "It shouldn't be the window." He said, tapping the floor tile of the Last Supper with the hammer in his hand, "Give me the toolbox and a screwdriver. .”

Shang Qingyun and the old staff, including Dean Qian, all surrounded him.I saw Team Xu squatting on the outside of the big brick, inserting a screwdriver into the crack of the brick, and tilting it upwards with all his strength, he actually pried the brick——

This time, everyone let out an exclamation.

The old staff and Dean Qian looked at each other in disbelief, saying incredulously, "We haven't found any problem with this brick for so many years?!"

"Where is it so easy for you to find out!"

Team Xu said, greeted Shang Qingyun and the old staff, and lifted up the floor tile.The floor tiles were lifted and there was a sound of steel rubbing. It turned out that a steel support was installed under the bricks, just like the air pressure support of the box bed. If it hadn’t been useless for too many years, it would be rusty. I’m afraid it was used frequently in the past. Still a silent device.

After the brick was lifted, several people fell silent as they watched the scene in front of them.This is really unexpected...

Dean Qian looked at the scene under the floor tiles, and even took several breaths, her voice began to tremble: "What's going on?! God, how could this happen!"

Xu Shiyan looked at the iron stairs under the floor tiles, was silent for a moment, stood up and called Gu Weijun of the Northern Suburb Criminal Investigation Team.

"Team Gu, there is something wrong with the Beijiao Orphanage and we need support! Okay, please make arrangements, Lao Shang and I are still here, and we will wait for people to arrive before we act."

After Team Xu hung up the phone, he said to Dean Qian: "Call the person in charge of the cafeteria, Lao Liu, to come. We need to ask him about something."

Dean Qian also realized the seriousness of the problem and quickly called the person in charge of the cafeteria.However, no one answered the phone after calling three times, and her face was already very ugly.

The old employee was also frightened, and it took a while before he said, "Why don't I take you to see Lao Liu's house?"

At this time, the sound of a police car sounded at the entrance of the orphanage. Team Gu was very efficient, and it was the arrival of support.

Team Xu immediately said: "Okay, Lao Shang, you take two support comrades with him, pay attention to safety."

Shang Qingyun and the old staff were also unambiguous and walked out immediately.

The police from the Beijiao Criminal Investigation Team came to support a total of two vehicles, a total of eight people.As soon as Shang Qingyun met with them and explained the situation, two police officers with guns took the initiative to leave with Shang Qingyun.Team Xu led two of the remaining six people, along the steps under the floor tiles, into the underground space of the cafeteria.

Shang Qingyun and the old staff got into the police car and drove towards the residential area.The old staff patiently guided the way, and soon came to the area where the old Liu's house was located.He pointed to one of the houses and said, "Old Liu's house is that one. This area is to be planned, and the road is being built ahead, or we will walk over there?"

The policeman who was driving looked at the road conditions, turned the car around decisively, and stopped on the side of the road.The group of four got off the car and walked to the old Liu's house.
