On the way home being picked up by the little driver Ji Liao, Yan Cun remained silent and stared straight ahead, his mind in a mess.

Although Lu Xiaorui's mental state is much better than before, she still can't remember who the 'blue figure' was that day, and she's not sure if her memory is wrong.

So they decided to go to the staff dormitory building of Fenglin Bar, and asked Tang Song, the receptionist at that time, about the situation.

After being interrogated like this last time, Tang Song's legs trembled in reflex, and it took him a long time to remember that the female college student Lu Xiao seemed to be wearing a blue suspender skirt that day.

However, just as they were planning to interrogate Lu Xiao, they learned that she just packed her luggage and went back to her hometown last night, and now she can't get through to the phone or reply to WeChat.

In desperation, he had no choice but to go home with Ji Liao.

Ji Liao observed him from the corner of his eye for a while, hesitated for a while, and then coughed lightly to break the silence: "Don't hold your breath, just say it."

He hesitated and added: "Well...how about looking at the fish? Think about what to have for dinner?"

Yan Cun lowered his eyes and said nothing, took the water glass handed over by the other party, and took a small sip.

"No gas," he sighed softly, "it's just a little annoying."

Judging from the current situation, Yu Yue and Lu Xiao are the most suspicious. If they are brought back to the bureau for a few rounds of careful examination, they may be able to obtain some key clues—but they can't use 'The victim vaguely remembered seeing a blue figure before he fell into a coma. This is the reason to force Lu Xiaocong to be summoned back to Qinjiang, nor can he be forced to interrogate Yu Yue with the reason that "after being humiliated by Su Haiyuan, there is a high probability that he will impulsively commit crimes".

So he is annoying.

Ji Liao also saw that he was annoying, thought for a few seconds, and tried to change the subject: "What do you want to eat tonight?"

However, the other party replied: "...I don't really want to eat."

He then asked, "Shrimp dumpling noodles or ribs rice?"

"Hmm..." Captain Yan still thought he was upright, and replied, "Then it's pork ribs."

It's not worth the trouble to be hungry for this.

"Okay," Ji Liao nodded, "You can play for a while, or take a bath first, and I'll call you when it's done."

He could not refuse to put the 'feeding fish food remote control' into his hand, boldly rubbed Captain Yan's head, and walked towards the kitchen by himself.

Yan Cun let out an "oh" and stared at Ji Liao's back for a while without saying a word.

After thinking about it, it's really not worth worrying about this kind of thing. It's better to be free and easy. If you have clues to check, if you don't have clues to pull you down, you should eat, play, and sleep.

So he took a deep breath, pressed the button, fed a few mouthfuls of fish food, and went upstairs to take a shower.

It's just that he wasn't free and easy enough to share, the next morning the office landline rang, saying he was looking for Dui Yan.

He glanced at the caller number, raised his hand, turned on the speaker of the landline, and said two words: "Lu Xiao."

"..." The person on the other end of the phone was breathing heavily, as if he was struggling for something, and it took him a long time to say, "Well, it's me."

Lu Xiao breathed a sigh of relief, and said directly: "I was the one who called the police in the box that day."

The efficiency of providing testimony was too high. Yan Cun hadn't even started to guess, but he still pretended to be forceful: "I guessed it."

Before that, Yu Yue also said that he himself called the police, and the car crashed again with multiple testimonies, so he quietly winked at Jiang's deputy team - Jianghuai immediately understood, picked up the car keys and walked out of the gate of the city bureau, ready to go to the staff dormitory building of Fenglin Bar Bring Yu Yue back to the Municipal Bureau.

Zhang Jingze at the desk next door hurriedly took out his notebook from the drawer, moved it to the landline, and jotted down Lu Xiao's words.

"... I, I'm really fed up," Lu Xiao took a deep breath, "I have a bad conscience! I'm really uncomfortable! No matter what, I must speak out today! I really don't want to be threatened by him anymore I...that day...I called the police...that night..."

"Don't worry," Yan Cun comforted her softly, "Don't worry, stroke it a little first, take your time."

It is mainly for Zhang Jingze's consideration, it is not convenient to review if the memory is messed up.

"Yes! I'll stroke it!" Lu Xiao took a few deep breaths and said loudly, "Yes, according to the timeline, right!... At that time, Yu Yue, yes, he told me that there was something wrong with the guests in that box, and he was afraid of going out. What's the problem...you have to pull me to see it! Then it was around 8 o'clock! I heard screams coming from inside!"

"Slow...speak slowly..." Zhang Jingze never thought that the phone could be recorded, "Hand is about to break!"

Lu Xiao ignored him at all, he spoke very fast, and couldn't hold back his emotions: "I didn't hesitate at first, because the female celebrity screamed so badly, I had already unlocked the screen and prepared to call the police, and then... ...then Yu Yue stopped me!"

She seemed to think of something suddenly, her voice paused, and she hurriedly said: "Yes... that's right... that sleeping pill bottle! He locked the sleeping pill bottle in a drawer in the dormitory! Yes! That sleeping pill bottle must have his fingerprints on it! Hurry up !"

"...a sleeping pill bottle?"

Before he could say anything, Ji Liao had already pulled out his cell phone and sent Deputy Team Jiang a message.

"I, I continued... Then Yu Yue told me that if someone finds out that I called the police, it will easily cause trouble, and maybe they will find a way to retaliate against me!" Lu Xiao's narrative style is really a little out of character, " He also told me... He found that Lu Xiaorui's phone had dropped in the corridor outside the box, and asked me to put on gloves so that no fingerprints would be left. I opened the phone and pretended to send a fruit plate in, and threw it inside after hanging up, so that my voice would be It won't be recorded!"

Yan Cun muttered in his heart that you also believe it, and then asked: "And then?"

"...I... At that time! At that time, I felt that something was wrong! Why should I go, he didn't go by himself... Then we two quarreled outside the door for a while..." Lu Xiao took a breath, and the volume instantly dropped a little "Then, then I thought, if I continue to dawdle, she will probably die inside... Thinking about it carefully, it's just calling the police..."

"Well," Yan Cun remembered a certain word in her words just now, and asked, "So the threat you mentioned...?"

"...!" Lu Xiao's voice froze when he heard the words.

Seeing that she didn't want to talk about it, Yan Cun decided to go back to the most important details, and then asked, "You should talk about the sleeping pill bottle first."

"Sleeping pill bottle..." Lu Xiao's voice was a little low, "Well, things got serious at that time... Yu Yue, I remember that Yu Yue had serious insomnia..."

"When you broke into the second basement, I happened to be staying near the corridor, and I heard a police officer inside say the word 'sleeping pills', and I immediately thought of Yu Yue..." She felt a little regretful, "After you left, I saw He sneaked out and followed quietly..."

"He threw away the sleeping pill bottle?" Yan Cun asked.

"...No," Lu Xiao said, "he hesitated for a long time, and finally took it back to the dormitory and locked it in a drawer. After that, I asked him tentatively, but he reacted very strongly, refused to admit it, and said that even if the police went to You can't find anything, but you will suspect me..."

"Threatened you?" Yan Cun asked.

"...Yes," Lu Xiao seemed to be debating whether he should say it or not, and he said for a long time, "Before...well... when we were on good terms with him, I accidentally gave him some money, and he kept taking these things. Something threatens me..."

"Okay," Yan Cun said, "Understood."

After hanging up the phone, he took Zhang Jingze's recorded testimony and pondered for a while.

In fact, the testimony given by Lu Xiao was almost the same as the reporting process that Yu Yue explained that day. This alone cannot convict anyone. The only key to solving the case may be the sleeping pill bottle locked in the drawer.

He didn't hold out much hope, and he didn't think those fingerprints could be used as evidence of conviction, so he was still in a relaxed state.

About ten minutes later, Jiang Huai brought the suspect Yu Yue to the interrogation room and handed over the evidence 'sleeping pill bottle' to Ji Liao.

"I said just now that I wanted to look through his drawer, but he didn't respond at all, so I took it freely," Jiang Huai analyzed, "Well...so I think...there is a high probability that nothing will be found, right?"

"The process still has to go, let Ji Liao test it first." Yan Cun said.

Jianghuai responded "Yes".

They were just about to walk towards the interrogation room when the landline of the criminal investigation office rang, and Lu Xiao called them again.

After pushing open the door of the interrogation room, Yan Cun pulled out the chair and sat down in front of Yu Yue.

"Hmm..." He tentatively started to talk, "You should also know why we let you come here, right? Do you need to take the initiative to explain something?"

Yu Yue's shoulders couldn't stop shaking, he looked very nervous, but he forcefully said the word "No" and said, "You can ask."

"Okay," Yan Cun didn't know where to ask at this moment, so he could only ask, "What's the matter with the sleeping pill bottle?"

Zhang Jingze's pen tip paused outside the one-way glass, and quickly flipped through the book, quickly turning to the last page and jotting it down.

Yu Yue answered quickly: "That's it, why don't you test it?"

"What's the hurry, let's test it." Captain Yan seemed to be a little jumpy from Lu Xiao's infection, and then asked, "Actually, this time I mainly want to ask you, what exactly did you threaten Lu Xiao?"

Zhang Jingze was taken aback when he heard the words, and quickly turned several pages forward.

Yu Yue didn't say a word, and didn't know who he was learning from. After a long time, he suddenly burst out laughing, and suddenly said harshly: "Yes, I threatened her! I told her... I want her parents to know that she is not a child at all. Didn’t study hard at school! The money sent home is not clean money!”

Yan Cun: "...??"

It smells like Su Haiyuan.

Wen Lianyi's voice came from the communicator immediately: "Team Yan, I just checked a little bit - two years ago, Lu Xiao's father got lung cancer, not only for tuition, but also to send money home for his father's radiotherapy and chemotherapy." I just went to work at Fenglin Bar."

Yan Cun rang the communicator to signal that he knew, and then asked Yu Yue: "Why did you threaten her? Do you feel guilty for doing something bad? Afraid of being questioned by us?"

"... Guilty??" Yu Yue sneered, and his tone suddenly turned sweet, and said, "Heh... Just seeing her being threatened and terrified, I feel very happy."

"...???" Yan Cun couldn't bear it and said in a deep voice, "Stop learning, okay? Be normal, okay?"

This taste is too strong.
