Chapter 6 Candle Shadow · 6 "Oh? Really? You don't need me?"

"Investigating the 719 case?" A voice came from the other end of the phone.

Yan Cun hadn't fully woken up yet, so he responded vaguely and said, "Your information is a bit behind... now it's evolved, 719+721."

He yawned: "Why did you call me so early? It's only 7 o'clock."

The voice of the person on the other end of the phone paused, and said: "I guess you stayed up late to investigate the case, and I called to remind you that you need to sleep for a while."

"?" Yan Cun choked speechlessly, "Thank you so much, I just fell asleep not long ago."

The man chuckled a few times, and said: "Pay more attention to rest, and remember to eat three meals on time."

"I know, I know."

"Would you like to come back for dinner tonight?"

Yan Cun hesitated for a while, then said vaguely, "I'll go back if I'm not busy."

After chatting with the person on the other end of the phone for a while, Yan Cun hung up the phone and explained to himself: "Family, ask me to go home for dinner tonight."

Ji Liao let out a casual "hmm".

Yan Cun tidied up his crumpled sleeves. Out of the corner of his eye, he caught sight of the printed paper report in Ji Liao's hand, and was stunned: "You've been checking all night? Didn't you take a break?"

Ji Liao handed over the report: "Your forensic office is full of dust, how can you rest?"

"You can come out and find a desk." Yan Cun took the report and turned on the computer in front of the desk, "What did you find out?"

Ji Liao moved closer, turned the report back a few pages, and said, "The deceased had several bruises on his body. It is guessed that he fell down the stairs and suffered a severe blow to the head and died on the spot."

"What about the time of death?" Yan Cun asked.

"Judging from the temperature of the liver and the degree of body stiffness, the time of death was probably between nine o'clock and ten o'clock. No drug ingredients were detected in the body. Several sets of fingerprints extracted at the scene were compared with the DNA library, and they belonged to different hotel cleaners. member."

"Okay," Yan Cun nodded, "Thank you for your hard work."

He seemed to have thought of something, pulled out his phone and handed it over, saying, "Leave me a WeChat message? I'll contact you if there are any other questions during the investigation."

Ji Liao hesitated for a few seconds, then took the phone.

His face was full of tiredness, and after entering his contact information, he quickly packed his things and left the detachment.

Yan Cun pushed the electronic file to the investigators, got up and prepared to go home and take a shower first.

As a criminal police officer, I have more free time than anyone else in my free time. Once I get busy, I can be exhausted to death.After tidying himself up completely, he conveniently ordered a limited time-honored winter melon and crucian carp soup on Chongning Avenue, hailed a taxi and returned to the detachment.

It was already around 11 am.

Wen Lianyi, Jiang Huai and Zhang Jingze have already taken their positions in the office, waiting for Captain Yan to start work.

Yan Cun distributed a printout to each person, gathered everyone in a small room, and began to investigate these two major criminal cases.

"Team Yan," Wen Lianyi said as soon as she sat down, "Your dark circles are a bit heavy."

"Team Yan," Zhang Jingze also answered, "You look a little pale."

"..." Yan Cun said, "You try staying up all night?"

As soon as the words fell, he suddenly felt a little guilty. After all, strictly speaking, he actually slept a little soundly, and Xiao Ji, who really stayed up all night, didn't seem to be as haggard as he was.

But classmate Xiao Ji had a good meal, Captain Yan only ate a pineapple bun.

"Team Yan," Jiang Huai called out to him, "I've already called someone to notify the trainee forensic doctor to go to work, and I think he'll be here in a while."

"Well," Yan Cun coughed lightly, connected his laptop to the projector, and copied a broom to serve as a pointer, "The first investigation meeting of the 721 case begins!"

Everyone: "...??"

It was the first time for a new police officer to attend a meeting, and he turned his head and whispered to others: "Team Yan is like this... like a high school dean..."

Yan Cun immediately said in a deep voice, "Sit down."

The little police officer was taken aback by Yan Cun's tone, and quickly shut his mouth and sat up straight.

Jiang Huai and Yan Cuntong graduated from University A with a major in criminal investigation. They are in the same class and dormitory. They have been assigned to the same department as partners for many years, and their relationship is deeper than others.

Therefore, Jianghuai knows Yan Cun very well-personal ability is strong, but his temper is too gentle.

Now after a long period of team training, Yan Cun has acquired the skill of 'seriousness', although it only looks serious.

Yan Cun held the mouse, adjusted the surveillance video to the frame where Li Wenxin's back was facing the camera, and played it in slow motion.

"Last night, Xiao Ji and I agreed that Li Wenxin's actions here are a bit weird, like throwing something into Luo Qingsen's cup, but when we went back to the scene to collect evidence and test, we found that it was just ordinary lemonade."

He also forgot whether Ji Liao agreed with his statement, anyway, he was not there.

He then recounted the clues he found last night after staying up late last night, as well as his speculation about the blue and white porcelain necklace, returned to his seat, and brought others up to report the situation.

The next person to report the results of the investigation was Internet investigator Wen Lianyi.

"Ahem," she cleared her throat, "let's put Zhou Hongxin's case aside, and now I will talk about the important clues found in the 719 case."

"The last three digits of the license plate number of Luo Qingsen's car were blocked, so I called the surveillance cameras on several streets near the villa area, and successfully found the license plate number of the car. The owner's name is Gao Yaya, and her father Gao Yaya Kui Liang and Luo Qingsen cooperate in business," she asked, "Should we be summoned here?"

Yan Cun said, "Yes."

"Okay," Wen Lianyi nodded, "The report is over."

After a report by the investigators, the information obtained so far is basically the same as last night, so the first investigation meeting was temporarily adjourned, waiting for Gao Yaya and Gao Kuiliang to be summoned.

Around 12 noon, the takeaway phone rang.

Yan saved the information, got up and walked out of the gate of the detachment, before he could smell the smell of winter melon and crucian carp soup, he bumped into the delivery boy who rushed forward at the corner.

The two watched the takeaway box fall to the ground with a 'snap', and jumped a step back at the same time.

Delivery guy: "..."

Yan Cun: "..."

This may be fate.

"Ah! I'm sorry, I'm sorry!" The takeaway boy looked at the winter melon and crucian carp soup that fell on the ground with a look of horror, squatting down in a hurry to pick up the box, "I, I, my hands are slippery..."

Yan Cun took a deep breath, and lifted the lid of the packing box that fell on the ground distressedly, and the strong fragrance spread out.

Standing up and meeting the slightly nervous eyes of the delivery boy, Captain Yan's heart softened immediately.

"...Forget it, it doesn't matter."

The delivery boy looked at Yan Cun with teary eyes, and whispered, "Will you give me a bad review?"

"..." Yan Cun threw the packing box into the trash can with a blank expression, and waved his hands unbearably, "No...it's okay."

It may be fate.

After sending the delivery guy away, Yan Cun raised his hand and rubbed his stomach, looked around for some cleaning tools to clean up the soup, and raised his eyes to meet a pair of familiar eyes in front of the detachment door.

Yan Cun: "..."

Xiao Ji was standing on the edge of the car door with arms folded, staring at Yan Cun who picked up the mop again after 9 hours without saying a word, with a faint smile on the corner of his mouth.

—of course it was a mockery.

Yan Cun: "??"

Am I being embarrassed? !

Yan Cun took another deep breath, silently cleaned up the soup on the ground, threw the mop into the sink and rinsed it, and looked sideways at Ji Liao who was approaching him.

"Why are you here again?" He said angrily, "You are off work, I don't need you today."

"Oh?" Ji Liao smiled inexplicably, "Is that so? You don't need me?"

Yan Cun: "???"

What tone is this? ?

Our people's police don't beat people casually, but it doesn't mean that our people's police don't breathe their fragrance.

"Eh, Xiao Ji??"

Police officer Xiao Liu poked his head out from the back of the office door when he heard the noise, stood up and greeted him: "Oh, oh, you're finally here! Captain Yan was going crazy when he heard that you were still an intern at the grassroots level last night... Yan, Team Yan?!"

"..." Yan Cun didn't want to speak.

Xiao Liu looked at the two people who were confronting each other silently, and suddenly smelled something, and the tip of his nose twitched: "Nearby... why does it smell like winter melon and crucian carp soup?"

Yan Cun hissed: "Okay, don't say any more."

In the short term, no, he doesn't want to see wax gourd and crucian carp soup again in his life.

Ji Liao glanced at the bitter detachment leader beside him, and somehow wanted to laugh.

Yan Cun's brain was running at the speed of light, extracting key information from Xiao Liu's words, and only then did he have time to notice the uniform Ji Liao was wearing.

Xiao Ji's facial features are sharp and cold, and he wears a police uniform. When he is not speaking, he basically matches the image of a forensic doctor in the eyes of the public.

Still kind of like playing in a band.

Yan Cun couldn't believe it: "...is that you?"

Ji Liao rolled his eyes and asked, "Do you need me?"

Yan Cun put up the sheet music of the head of the Criminal Investigation Detachment, and said in a deep voice, "Then you didn't say it last night?!"

Ji Liao cherished his words like gold: "You didn't ask."

Yan Cun glanced at him sadly: "Okay... Now the captain has assigned you a task, go, clean the forensic office, go quickly."

Ji Liao spit out two words lightly: "I don't."

Yan Cun: "..."

Oh.

Bai blind such a pretty face.

Yan Cun gritted his teeth and repeated in a low voice: "All right, you don't..."

He changed into an approachable smile, raised his hand and patted Ji Liao's shoulder lightly, and said loudly, "I'm just kidding, you just came to our office, why would you arrange such rough work for you? Yes Bar?"

Ji Liao followed him to the office, and said in a flat tone: "I'm joking too, how could I not do the task assigned by the captain? Right?"

Heh, it sounds like someone can do it for me if I don't do it.

See through.

The atmosphere suddenly fell into embarrassment.

Seeing that the two of them were about to reach their destination, Yan Cun coughed lightly, and said in a low voice, "It's not important now, just be quiet, the important thing is to solve the current case first, understand?"

Ji Liao turned his head sideways, met Yan Cun's serious eyes, and couldn't help but chuckle.

"Okay," he said with a half-smile, "work is priority, captain."

"???" Yan Cun gritted his teeth and said in a low voice, "Try to be smaller?"

Although he is just over 1.8 meters tall, he is one of the top players in the team, but because of his fair complexion and his youthful appearance, there are always people questioning his age and working ability when he returns to the top for meetings.

Looking small is the pain of his life.

The two stepped into the office together. With a polite and gentle smile on his face, Ji Liao leaned close to Yan Cun's face under the eyes of everyone, and softly uttered the word "Little Captain" as if talking to a friend.

"..."

Yan Cun suspects that if this continues, he will be pissed off.

He took a deep breath, stretched out his hand and pinched Ji Liao hard on the back, reached a superficial "respect as a guest" with Bingzhuzi, and introduced this new little forensic doctor who deserved a beating to others.

Most of the people present had already met this temporary employee last night, and they didn't feel any repulsion for a while.

Yan Cun puffed up and returned to his seat, opened the takeaway page, and ordered a Beef Bridge Rice Noodle.

Qi returns to Qi, and you can't starve yourself.

The moment the order was successfully placed, police officer Xiao Liu knocked on the door of the Criminal Investigation Office.

"Captain Yan, Gao Kuiliang and Gao Yaya have already arrived at the gate of the detachment."

The author has something to say: Yan Cun: Don't get angry, there is no one to replace you when you get sick.

Chapter 7 Candle Shadow Seven No matter what gender I will not like, nor will I love anyone.

"Is that car?" Gao Yaya recalled for a while, "That car was a birthday present from my father a few years ago...but I have no interest in cars, and I have a driver at home, so I threw it in the garage to collect ashes after I drove it once. gone."

Shen Lin asked, "Where is the car now?"

Gao Yaya was unsure: "It should still be in the garage, right?"

"Where were you between July 7th and July 14th?"

"...July 7? At that time, I was on vacation with my parents at the seaside in Xicheng District."

"Do you stay together 24 hours a day?" Shen Lin continued to ask.

"This... This is definitely impossible, we didn't stay together during the break time," Gao Yaya was a little nervous when asked by this series of questions, "Comrade policeman, what did I, we do..."

Shen Lin quickly waved his hand: "No, just ask a few random questions, don't be nervous."

"Oh……"

Shen Lin lowered his eyes to look at the information on hand, and then asked some elegant questions.

Yan Cun carefully observed the look on her face, and a sense of familiarity suddenly appeared in his heart. After writing down the content of the question, he walked to another questioning room.

"Do you cooperate with Luo Qingsen in business?" Zhang Jingze asked.

"Yes," Gao Kuiliang raised his eyes and glanced at Yan Cun in a vague way, and said slowly, "I have cooperated with Ronaldinho in a project, but we don't usually communicate closely."

Yan Cun squinted to meet his gaze.

Zhang Jingze: "You lent Luo Qingsen the car?"

Gao Kuiliang immediately looked away, and said, "But he didn't say what he wanted. I thought it was just a car, so I borrowed it."

"Where's the car?"

"In my garage."

"You've been at the resort for the last week? Haven't you left?"

Gao Kuiliang shook his head: "No."

After listening for a while, Yan Cun came out of the inquiry room and walked quickly to Wen Lianyi's side: "Have you checked the check-in information of the resort?"

"I've checked," Wen Lianyi said, "On July 7, Gao Kuiliang went to a seaside resort in Xicheng District with his wife and daughter and stayed for almost a week."

Gao Kuiliang and Luo Qingsen have common interests in business, and Luo Qingsen's fall from the building also had a great impact on the project, and Xicheng District is too far away from the incident site, so he had to meet Luo Qingsen without the other two people knowing , is less likely.

"Are there any doubts?" Jiang Huai asked.

"According to the current clues, there are two possibilities for inferring the perpetrator," Yan Cun said, "One is that Zhou Hongxin trusts undefended acquaintances. Although the screenwriter Wang Yuan was in the guest room at the time and there were witnesses, the suspicion of the confession cannot be ruled out. The second is that Zhou Hongxin is not familiar with and does not trust, but the physique is obviously weaker than himself, the threat is small, and there is no need to fortify people, temporarily suspect Lu Xiaorui and Li Wenxin."

"Ask." Wen Lianyi raised her hand, "Li Wenxin was called to our detachment just that night, and it would be too troublesome to rush back to Chengfeng Hotel from the detachment, right?"

"The main reason is that there are not many clues at hand, so we have to put all suspects on the same level for investigation," Yan Cun added, "Last night I interviewed Jianghuai and got new clues. Zhou Hongxin and the 719 case The victim, Li Guo, has an unusual relationship, so it is necessary to investigate the social relationship between the victims of the 719 case."

Wen Lianyi: "Okay."

After sorting out the idea of ​​solving the case, Yan Cun saw that they had almost finished their questions, so he ended the questioning of Gao's father and daughter and sent them out of the detachment gate.

Zhang Jingze had just joined the team and was inexperienced. After asking such a question, he broke out in a nervous sweat and rushed into the office and collapsed on the sofa chair.

Just as Gao Kuiliang took a few steps forward, he seemed to suddenly think of something, and turned his head to look carefully at Yan Cun for a while.

"?"

Gao Kuiliang opened his mouth and asked, "Is your name Yan Cun?"

Yan Cun was stunned for a moment, then nodded hesitantly.

Gao Kuiliang let out a prolonged tone of 'oh', bent his eyes, suddenly smiled and raised his hand to pat Yan Cun's shoulder: "You've grown so big? I hugged you when you were young, remember?"

???

Sudden recognition of relatives?

"Are you...?" Yan Cun sized him up several times.

"I have been classmates with your adoptive father Fang Yushan for many years," Gao Kuiliang approached a little familiarly, "Young man, you are so talented, have you become the team leader?"

Yan Cun hurriedly waved his hands when he heard the words: "No, no, no... luck, it's just good luck."

Gao Kuiliang: "Do you have a partner?"

Yan Cun: "...No."

"What do you think of Yaya?" Gao Kuiliang said with a smile, "Oh...my daughter may not be as good and capable as the little girl in your police force, but there is only one advantage, she has a very good temper, and she dared not say a word when she was bullied , if I have a boyfriend like you, I can rest assured."

Yan Cun was speechless: "..."

Fine.

Is a sudden blind date okay?

Gao Kuiliang said a lot to himself: "When my wife was pregnant with Yaya, I told Lao Fang that if it was a boy, I would be a brother, and if it was a girl, I would have a baby kiss with you. I didn't expect that Then I forgot about it.”

"Uh..." Yan Cun was so embarrassed that he had no place to put his hands. From the corner of his eye, he glanced at the criminal investigation office, and saw a row of ear tips protruding from the door frame.

"..."

I really want to die on the spot.

Gao Kuiliang opened the car door with a smile, and said, "I'll take Yayayao Lao Fang to dinner some other day, you must come."

Yan Cunxin said that I would not go: "Okay, I will definitely go another day, you go slowly!"

Watching Gao Kuiliang's car disappear at the corner of the street, the row of small ears retracted quickly. Yan Cun straightened the epaulets that were crooked by Gao Kuiliang's slap, and turned his head to meet Ji Liao who was fetching water on the other side of the corridor.

Yan Cun: "..."

Ji Liao nodded slightly at him.

...Why is this guy always the closest when you're embarrassed? ?

Horoscope does not match.

Yan Cun wasn't sure how much Ji Liao had heard, so he took out his phone from his pocket and sent Fang Yushan a message saying that he would go back to dinner tonight.

——Fang Yushan, the former director of the Qinjiang Public Security Bureau, retired due to illness seven years ago and went home to recuperate. As a result, Huang Junfeng, the deputy director, was promoted to the bureau and became Yan Cun's immediate superior.

In order to avoid suspicion, Yan Cun didn't mention the foster father-son relationship between himself and Fang Yushan, but Jiang Huai, Wen Lianyi and others who have been on the same team for many years know more or less.

He didn't care whether others knew about the relationship between him and the old bureau chief, he bypassed Ji Liao and walked towards the office.

Ji Liao stared at Yan Cun's back thoughtfully for a while.

Jiang Huai obviously heard the commotion outside clearly, poked his head out and smiled and joked: "What did Gao Kuiliang pull you to say? To introduce someone? That elegant?"

"Jingle Bell--"

Yan Cun picked up the delivery call and patted Jiang Huai on the head: "Investigate your case."

In the afternoon, the criminal investigation office was fully air-conditioned, and Yan Cun couldn't help but sneezed as soon as he entered the door with the takeaway. He quickly went to the table to open the lunch box, and finally had lunch before two o'clock.

"I took a closer look just now, she looks pretty," Jiang Huai was still picking up the topic just now, "Don't you like this model?"

Yan Cun glanced at him, and said vaguely while eating: "Thank you for the invitation, I won't fall in love."

"..." Jianghuai's desire to survive is over the top, "Let me tell you first, I don't discriminate against any 28-year-old virgin, nor do I discriminate against 28-year-olds, nor do I discriminate against virgins... So how did you hold back for 28 years? Teach me? Huh? "

"Cough, cough!"

Yan Cun almost choked to death on a mouthful of rice noodles, and quickly took out a tissue to wipe his mouth.

... If you really don't fight for three days, you will go to the house to expose the tiles.

He asked Jiang Huai: "Why is it a virgin if you don't fall in love at the age of 28?"

Jianghuai seemed to have heard some big news: "??!"

"No..." The more Yan Cun explained, the more confused he became, "It's not the point... Anyway, I just don't want to find a partner! Aren't you single too?"

"I'm different," Jiang Huai boasted, "I haven't played enough."

"Brother Yan, do you want to consider me?" Wen Lianyi answered, "You can go up to the hall and down to the kitchen, and you can carry mineral water with one hand."

Yan Cun took a mouthful of powder, and said decisively: "You can't."

"Woo..." Wen Lianyi made a movement of stabbing a knife into her chest, and said in a weak voice, "Why! I'm not good enough for you!"

Yan Cun: "I can also carry mineral water with one hand."

Jiang Huai patted Wen Lianyi's shoulder lightly, leaned into her ear and whispered, "Maybe it's because of the wrong gender."

After all, since the two met, Yan Cun has never expressed any love for women, even though he has never expressed any love for men, but Jiang Huai once suspected that Yan Cun was a crook.

Is it okay to be 28 years old? How did you do it without dating in 28 years?

Jiang Huai, who changed his girlfriend every March, couldn't understand.

"I heard it!" Yan Cun casually grabbed a pen and threw it at Jiang Huai, "Is the case still under investigation?!"

Jiang Huai lightly reached out to catch the pen.

Zhang Jingze listened quietly for a long time, then said with a simple face: "Ah? Did Captain Yan turn out to be crooked? I don't even know..."

Yan Cun: "???"

What teammates are these?I don't want it anymore.

Ji Liao at the next table looked down at the case file with no expression on his face, listened silently for a while, and wondered what was going on with this team, is it always so noisy?

The joys and sorrows of human beings are not connected, I just think they are noisy.jpg

"Listen to his nonsense," Yan Cun said powerlessly, "I don't like men either, no matter what gender I am, and I won't love anyone."

Ji Liao was startled: "..."

Zhang Jingze asked with interest: "Why, Team Yan?"

Wen Lianyi: "That's right, why Captain Yan?"

Jianghuai repeater: "Why, Captain Yan?"

"Because no one is worthy of me, okay?" Yan Cun wailed in a broken voice, "Please, please, please investigate the case!"

"It's too fake Captain Yan," Wen Lianyi rolled her eyes, "It doesn't fit your personality at all."

Zhang Jingze boldly agreed: "That's it!"

JAC repeater: "Exactly!"

Yan Cun lowered his head and emptied the food in the bowl, not bothering to talk to them at all.

He doesn't reject the matter of 'falling in love' from the bottom of his heart, and it's not that he is so boring that he doesn't know anything about love. It's just that in his subconscious, Yan Cun always believes that once a person has something that he cares about, he will easily become weak.

He didn't think anyone could make him 'care about being weak'.

Besides, the criminal police are so busy with work, how can they have time? ?

"Oh—" Jiang Huai sighed, leaned back in the chair, raised his eyes to the ceiling, "When will my love come?"

Wen Lianyi answered, "Didn't your love come once every three months?"

Yan Cun glanced at the two of them, and said quietly: "I don't know when your love will come, I only know that if you don't look at the stack of documents on the table, your overtime notice will come soon."

"..." Jiang Huai hurriedly put down the legs of the chair, pretending to pull out a piece of information and read it.

Wen Lianyi looked at the time on the wall clock, shut her mouth and stared at the display screen.

Yan Cun threw the lunch box into the trash can, turned on the computer and continued to sort out the clues.

Perhaps because the acquisition of clues has been smooth, the investigation team spent most of the afternoon checking the files of the victim and the suspect as well as the surveillance video near the hotel that day, but found no breakthroughs.

At six o'clock in the evening, after Zhou Hongxin's family members came to the detachment to take away the body, Yan Cun let everyone off work first.

He was thinking about going home for dinner, so he sorted out the relevant materials for a while, and soon he and Ji Liao were the only ones left in the office.

Yan Cun glanced at him: "Aren't you going home?"

Ji Liao didn't raise his head, just said "Wait to pick up Ji Shuwang", and continued to read the autopsy report on the table.

He was worried about missing any clues during the overnight inspection last night, so he checked the wounds on the body one more time to confirm that the victim had not fought with anyone else.

Yan Cun slightly changed his view of this new little forensic doctor—although the two personalities are inexplicably incompatible, but fortunately, the other party is serious and professional enough in his work.

He packed up his things and was about to tell Ji Liao to go back early, when the landline on the desk rang in the next second.

"Team Yan..." Wen Lianyi lowered her voice and said, "I'm on my way to the subway station now, and I'm just about to take Line 3 home... Guess who I saw at the intersection?"

"Who?" Yan Cun asked.

"That screenwriter Wang Yuan!" Wen Lianyi continued mysteriously, "Wang Yuan is accompanied by a woman! Guess who that woman is?!"

"..." Yan Cun was speechless, "Don't be tricky, finish with one sentence."

Wen Lianyi said: "It's Gao Yaya who just came to the detachment this afternoon!"

The author has something to say: Ji Shuwang: "Where are you? The background is so noisy? Are you at work?"

Ji Liao: "I'm at the vegetable market."
