blank count

The next day, Jin Zhou routinely slept until the sun basked in his butt before getting up from the bed.

The lower abdomen that had been beaten by Yang Shiyu no longer felt any sensation, but the painful right shoulder was still a little uncomfortable. As long as the arm was raised, there would be a faint pain.

It seems that before Yang Shiyu recognized him, he really hit him hard.

Although it may not be so gentle to beat him later, if Yang Shiyu didn't pull back, he might still be curled up on the ground in pain, unable to get up for a while.

"Dog, it's really violent." Jin Zhou cursed to himself, "Not gentle at all."

After packing up and going out, Jin Zhou went to the steamed stuffed bun shop to buy breakfast, and strolled slowly to the car repair shop.

Xiao Wu, the guy in the shop, had already opened the shop. When he saw Jin Zhou coming, he greeted him, and then continued to wash the foam on the car with a spray gun.

There was a sound of bargaining from the consignment shop next door. Jin Zhou poked his head over to check, and found that a man came to pawn the gold chain, and he was not satisfied with the price given by the consignment shop.

"Your fees are too expensive, aren't you? You only pay more than 3000 in total, and you have to charge more than 100. If you redeem it later, you will be charged interest. What is the difference between this and a black-hearted usury?"

Yu He behind the counter patiently explained: "This is the normal rate and interest rate. You go elsewhere, and the price is also the same."

The middle-aged man persisted: "I heard that the interest rate is negotiable, please give me a discount."

Yu He was still polite: "We have a unified price here, and there is no negotiation."

The middle-aged man said again: "Then explain to me in detail how the fee is calculated."

Yu He opened his mouth and was about to repeat the calculation method when he suddenly saw Jin Zhou coming outside the counter, so he changed his greeting and said, "Morning, Brother Jin."

Jin Zhou raised his chin as a response. He leaned lazily on the edge of the counter and looked the middle-aged man up and down.

The middle-aged man obviously felt offended, and asked Jin Zhou in a bad tone: "Are you okay?"

Jin Zhou picked up the gold chain placed on the counter to have a look, and then threw it back into the arms of the middle-aged man unceremoniously: "Dang it, don't get out."

The middle-aged man was stunned for a moment, and glared at Jin Zhou angrily. Yu He behind the counter hurriedly said to Jin Zhou: "Brother Jin, you are a guest."

There was a layer of meaning in Yu He's tone, he was persuading Jin Zhou not to be as knowledgeable as the guests.

The middle-aged man seemed to realize that the "Brother" was definitely not for nothing, and suddenly lost his momentum, glared at Jin Zhou resentfully, and left the consignment shop with the gold chain.

"Don't be so useless when doing business." Jin Zhou said to Yu He, "If you meet such a person, just let him go."

Yu He scratched the back of his head embarrassingly: "But I don't know how to curse."

To a certain extent, this is a good thing. When Liu Yongchang recruited Yu He to manage the consignment business for him, he took a fancy to Yu He's good looks and wanted to make money with harmony.

However, the business of consignment houses is risky. Now the regulation is loose and no one is in charge, so consignment houses are still doing pawn and private lending business. If they really encounter some difficult customers and make the business impossible, then It's not worth the candle.

After coming out of the consignment shop, Jin Zhou went upstairs to sit in the law office for a while.

There is no new news from Sun Yi for the time being, so I don't know where Wang Darong went.He was busy with a divorce case, Jin Zhou helped him sort out his thoughts, and then returned to his car repair shop.

After sitting for a few minutes, I checked the time, and it was almost time for lunch.

Jin Zhou strolled to the next street to pack two servings of mutton and rice noodles, and finally sat in the car repair shop peacefully like a shop manager.

The essence of mutton rice noodles is fermented bean curd that melts in the soup. The sour fermented bean curd is paired with spicy millet pepper, and the taste is not too refreshing.

Jin Zhou's life is as good as this bowl of mutton and rice noodles.

In fact, he didn't resent Yang Shiyu at all, because he didn't feel how unfortunate his current life was.

He is happy and carefree every day, and he does not know how many times better than those office workers.

There must be incomprehension and unwillingness, but that is far from the level of resentment.

You have to learn to look forward in life. Jin Zhou works as a part-time lawyer and has met countless people who are less fortunate than him. He thought about it very early on. When you think you are unfortunate, there must be someone in the world who is more unfortunate than you. unfortunate people.

The business in the store was not good. After lunch, Jin Zhou was free again.

Thinking of lying to Yang Shiyu that he didn't drive there last night, and his car was still parked near Tongzilou, Jin Zhou greeted Xiao Wu, and then took a taxi to the place where he parked last night.

The car was parked at the end of the downhill. Afraid of being fined, the substitute driver kindly parked the car at a tricky corner for him.

Jin Zhou was standing on the side of the road, thinking about how to get the car out, when he heard two old ladies passing by chatting: "It's too miserable, the child is at home." "Who would do such a thing?" ?”

Jin Zhou looked at the backs of the two aunts leaving, and then looked in the direction of Tongzilou, only to find that there were a lot of people gathered there, and in the gaps between the crowd, he could vaguely see the raised cordon.

It is the nature of Chinese people to watch the excitement, but Jin Zhou is not in that mood at this time.Recalling the cry of the child last night, he felt a bad premonition in his heart, so he hurriedly walked into the crowd in three steps at a time.

A murder occurred in the tube building.

I heard from the old man next to me that it was a single mother who died, and the child was in the house when she was killed, and she probably witnessed the whole process.

Jin Zhou was so shocked that he couldn't think for a long time, his mind was full of the heart-piercing cry of the child last night.

If he had gone to check...

impossible.

There will be no such assumptions.

Who would have thought that when a child cries, a murder has occurred?

What's more, Jin Zhou is not a resident here. He believes that anyone who passes by can't be so nosy.

Wave after wave of spectators came from outside the cordon, chatting with each other about what they had heard, but after a while, they left one after another.

The shock in Jin Zhou's heart gradually dissipated, and he began to review what happened last night bit by bit, but apart from the crying of the child, he really couldn't think of any details related to the murder.

Could it be that Wang Darong hid in the house of a single mother, killed and escaped after a dispute?

This speculation is really reluctant, not supported by evidence, and completely untenable.Jin Zhou's mind was also empty, and he couldn't think of any other possibility, so he could only rely on Wang Darong.

Looking at the other people outside the cordon, most of them were just like Jin Zhou, analyzing the case without any basis. One moment, this person reasoned that it was a murder of love, and the other person reasoned that it was a murder of vendetta.

In fact, this matter has nothing to do with Jin Zhou, so he doesn't need to take it to heart, but he is not afraid of [-], just in case, if the real culprit is Wang Darong, wouldn't he miss important clues?

"Hello, Officer Ren?" Jin Zhou returned to his car, held up the phone in one hand, and started the car with the other, "Didn't you ask me to investigate my parents' case? I'm free now."

Jin Zhou planned to ask Ren Wenli about the murder case last night after he cooperated with the investigation of the car accident that year. He should be able to get some information.

If Ren Wenli doesn't talk about it, it probably has something to do with Wang Darong;

If Ren Wenli's attitude remained the same, it was probably an ordinary murder case and had nothing to do with Jin Zhou.

However, plans are always out of date.When Jin Zhou came to the Public Security Bureau, he did not expect that Ren Wenli would "invite" him directly to the interrogation room.

"I was looking for you, so here you are."

Ren Wenli held a stack of photos in her hand and placed them in front of Jin Zhou one by one. The photos were all of Jin Zhou wandering around Tongzilou last night.

Jin Zhou suddenly felt that something was wrong, so Ren Wenli said again: "A murder case happened in a shantytown last night, do you know about it?"

...No.

Jin Zhou really wanted to help his forehead, he had calculated thousands of times, why didn't he calculate that he was also suspected of committing the crime in the eyes of the police?

"I know." Jin Zhou picked up a photo and looked at it. On it, he was standing at the intersection and looking around. In his memory, he should have cursed at that time.

"What are you doing there?" Ren Wenli asked.

"Look for Wang Darong." Jin Zhou didn't hide anything, after all, he wasn't the murderer, so naturally he didn't need to feel guilty.

"How do you know where Wang Darong lives?" Ren Wenli's attitude was more casual. Jin Zhou was not sure, but he vaguely felt that Ren Wenli did not list him as a suspect.

"Check it out." Jin Zhou said concisely.

"So you found out Wang Darong's address, went there last night, and then left?" Ren Wenli asked.

"That's right." Jin Zhou said.

"Then," Ren Wenli looked straight at Jin Zhou, "How do you know that a murder happened there?"

"Because I went there again today to see if Wang Darong is there." Jin Zhou's answer was flawless.

He couldn't deny that he didn't know, because many people saw him around the cordon.

He also couldn't honestly say that he deliberately left his car there last night to rub Yang Shiyu's car, because he couldn't expose Yang Shiyu's existence.

Thinking of Yang Shiyu, Jin Zhou suddenly felt something was wrong. What if the police found that Yang Shiyu was also at the scene?

He did have legitimate reasons to investigate his parents' case. Ren Wenli knew his style of conduct, so she probably wouldn't hold on to it.

But Yang Shiyu, as a judge, shouldn't be there.

"How long have you been at Wang Darong's house?" Ren Wenli continued to ask.

"I didn't look at the watch, maybe ten minutes." Jin Zhou calmed down quickly.

He thought that Yang Shiyu's anti-reconnaissance awareness was very strong, so he should not have been caught by surveillance.However, Ren Wenli's question next made his uneasiness suddenly increase.

"Did you leave alone?" Ren Wenli asked.

Jin Zhou pretended not to understand: "What do you mean?"

Ren Wenli took out another photo from the file folder, this time there were two people in the photo, one was Jin Zhou, looking back at Tongzilou, it should be when he heard the cry of the child, the other person was walking in front, All he could see was the pitch-black back, and it was Yang Shiyu.

Ren Wenli pointed to Yang Shiyu's figure, looked at Jin Zhou sharply and asked, "Who is this person?"

Jin Zhou's breathing became disordered for a moment.

This is a little trickier.
