Criminal evidence

Chapter 8 [The Vanishing Cardamom 8]

"You, are you waiting for me?"

Lu Qinghe never thought that Shen Changyan would be here.

I still remember that when that person just returned to work in Wancheng, Lu Qinghe also thought that everyone was old acquaintances, and they should be a little closer than others.

But Shen Changyan is still the same as he was after the age of 13, very strange to him.

The only difference from others is that when two people get together, there is a high probability that they will say a few more words.

Shen Changyan stood up after seeing Lu Qinghe, his bicycle was next to Lu Qinghe's bicycle, at this moment he raised his hand and patted his seat, and said indifferently.

"Seeing that you were not in a good spirit just now, don't let there be an accident on the road, I will take you back."

Lu Qinghe looked at Shen Changyan, then immediately refused, "Who wants you to carry it."

After speaking, he stepped on his long legs and stepped on his "mount".

The dormitory provided by the bureau is not far away, and it only takes about ten minutes by bike.

Lu Qinghe pedaled slowly, and was soon caught up by Shen Changyan.

The street lights on the main road were dim and warm yellow, and Shen Changyan was beside him, and the two tacitly maintained a certain speed and slowed down.

Lu Qinghe didn't speak, and Shen Changyan was also quiet.

This kind of silence was maintained until they returned to the dormitory, and Lu Qinghe took back the slipper he had lost in the morning from the uncle in the reception room, and then the two of them closed the door separately.

The windows were still wide open, and it was still raining heavily when I went out in the morning.

An ominous premonition suddenly rose in Lu Qinghe's heart, he hurriedly ran forward and reached out to touch his pillow.

Sure enough, it was soaking wet.

"Hey, Shen Changyan, open the door, open the door."

The weird silence only lasted until the way from the city bureau to home, Lu Qinghe couldn't hold back anymore.

Occasionally, he would think about it, he was obviously a good partner before, why did he suddenly become like this?

Sometimes I couldn't control myself, and wanted to reach out and grab Shen Changyan's collar and ask, "Did I forget to pay you the money I owe you? Tell me, if I pay you double now, can we still be good friends?" "

He said he couldn't remember, but he still had a little bit of thoughts, at least Lu Qinghe knew that in this relationship, it was Shen Changyan who regressed first.

After being knocked on the door four or five times in a row, Shen Changyan slowly opened the door.

A desk lamp was on in the room, the quilts were neatly folded, the book was spread out on the table, and there was an uncapped pen.

When Lu Qinghe saw Shen Changyan, he opened his mouth and just said a word.

"Give me a clean pillow."

"No."

"Stop talking nonsense, can you only have one pillow?"

Shen Changyan was silent for two or three seconds, then asked again, "What's wrong?"

"Bad." Lu Qinghe stretched out his hand and scratched his hair, he said, "It was too hot last night, I didn't close the window when I slept, then it rained, and I ran too fast in the morning, now the sheets and quilts are all covered by the rain Got wet."

Shen Changyan looked at Lu Qinghe coldly for a while, and then said decisively, "It deserves it."

After speaking, he wanted to close the door, but Lu Qinghe was not convinced, so he pushed the door panel.

He shouted, "Have you any humanity!"

Shen Changyan said, "It's common sense to bring an umbrella when you go out and close the windows when it rains."

Lu Qinghe said, "I know it's common sense, but I don't. I left it in a hurry when I went out in the morning."

"How long did it take you to close the window? It's just right when it's wet, and it will give you a longer memory."

"I……"

Lu Qinghe was in a hurry, he was about to say something more, but the door opposite Shen Changyan was suddenly opened.

A male colleague from the traffic police stretched out his hand to rub his sleepy right eye, and asked, "Old Lu, what are you talking about if you don't sleep at night?"

Lu Qinghe turned his head and said, "I'm asking Shen Changyan to borrow a pillow."

The male colleague from the traffic police team asked, "Borrow a pillow? What's wrong with your pillow?"

Lu Qinghe said, "Damn, I ran out in a hurry in the morning and didn't close the window. Isn't it because the pillow was soaked by the rain?"

"Oh, look at you stupid, the pillows are all wet, and the sheets and quilts are all wet." The male colleague looked back at his bed after he finished speaking, and said, "Why don't you come here and make do with me?" night?"

Lu Qinghe said with disgust, "Who wants to sleep in your kennel."

The male colleague said, "Oh ancestor, I haven't thought about your kennel yet. You like to sleep or not. Anyway, I am not the one who catches a cold after sleeping on a wet quilt and wet pillow. Don't ask me to buy you medicine then."

After speaking, the male colleague was about to close the door.

Seeing this, Lu Qinghe was in a bad mood, and hurriedly shouted, "Don't, don't, just wait for me, I'll go and dry the things on my bed before I come back to sleep."

While talking, Lu Qinghe let go of the palm that was holding Shen Changyan's door.

There are at least a hundred people living in this whole building up and down, most of them except Shen Changyan who are not particular about it.

Everyone is a bunch of stinky guys, and there are many people who run up and down in a pair of underwear usually shirtless.

Lu Qinghe didn't care, he didn't sleep with someone, it wasn't always more comfortable than sleeping on a hard bed at night.

So when he turned around and was about to go back, a hand suddenly stretched out from behind, and pulled him back forcefully.

"Eh eh?"

Lu Qinghe waved his hands and feet wildly, and almost didn't sit on his big ass.

He only heard Shen Changyan say, "After the things are used up, wash them and return them to me."

Then Lu Qinghe piled up two thick and high beds of cotton batting, clean sheets and quilts, and a brand new pillow.

The thoughts in my mind went from "Why didn't you give it to me earlier" to "Why did you give me so much?".

Lu Qinghe said, "It's summer, brother, how can I cover you with such a thick quilt?"

Shen Changyan ignored him, and just slammed the door shut with a "bang".

Lu Qinghe turned his head, and the male colleague from the traffic police team also had a bit of bewilderment on his face. The two looked at each other, and Lu Qinghe stammered.

"Then, then me, how about I sleep by myself?"

The other party replied, "Then, then you, then you should sleep by yourself."

Then he also closed the door of this room.

When the second half of the night was approaching dawn, the temperature began to gradually rise again.

What Shen Changyan gave Lu Qinghe was a set of quilts for winter, which were very thick, even if they were just used as mattresses, they would still be hot and sweaty.

Lu Qinghe tossed and turned all night and couldn't sleep well, and he always had strange dreams.

Before I opened my eyes the next morning, I heard the polite knock on the door of "knock knock".

This makes people feel like they are in a dream. After all, in the entire dormitory building, except for Shen Changyan, everyone else slams on the door like Lu Qinghe.

"Why?"

Lu Qinghe was a little irritable, with short sleeves and big pants, and he stretched out his hand to pull his messy hair before opening the door.

Shen Changyan has already taken care of it, and he looks handsome in his usual white shirt and black trousers.

Lu Qinghe was stunned, he looked at Shen Changyan, obviously not as arrogant as before, and asked another question immediately.

"what?"

Shen Changyan looked down at his watch, and said, "Go to work."

"Brother, it's only six o'clock." Lu Qinghe broke down. He pointed back to the pager beside his bed and said, "It's six o'clock in the morning. Isn't it stipulated that the bureau doesn't go to work until 08:30?"

Shen Changyan said, "We're not going back to the game today, let's visit the friends who the deceased had played with before his death."

Lu Qinghe still hadn't recovered from getting up, he shouted, "But, it's only six o'clock, you run into other people's house so early, won't they scold you?"

"Go over, it's almost time."

"Even if we walk for an hour on the road, it's only seven o'clock when we get there."

"I……"

Shen Changyan couldn't answer for a moment, Lu Qinghe just stared at him angrily.

The two stalemate for a long time, and when Lu Qinghe was going to go back to sleep without even closing the door, Shen Changyan finally choked out a sentence.

"We'll have breakfast together, and then we'll visit."

Lu Qinghe stared at the person for a long time before saying, "Who treats you?"

Shen Changyan responded, "Me."

Lu Qinghe didn't have the habit of eating breakfast in the first place, he would rather sleep for another 10 minutes, but today it was rare for Shen Changyan to speak, he took it as a face to the other party.

Six o'clock in the morning in Wancheng is actually not very early, at least a lot of shops on the street are open.

Lu Qinghe sat on the side of the street with his head drooping, listening to the "jingling" bicycle behind him, and the dog barking at the car repair shop next to the breakfast shop.

Shen Changyan came out of the breakfast shop and said, "There are only soy milk fritters and steamed buns, I ordered them all."

Lu Qinghe hurriedly told him, "Don't put sugar in my bowl of soy milk."

Shen Changyan originally planned to sit down on the small stool, but he was stunned when he heard this. He stood up again and said, "Then I'll go and order you a new bowl."

"Hey, don't do it." Lu Qinghe called him back, "If you add it, just add it, it's okay if you add it."

Shen Changyan sat down again, and he said, "I remember you used to add sugar to your soy milk."

Lu Qinghe said, "That happened many years ago."

Shen Changyan didn't answer, but nodded, with a helpless smile on the corner of his mouth.

In his notebook, he recorded the names, genders and addresses of six children. Lu Qinghe grew up in Wancheng and is much more familiar with this area than Shen Changyan.

So I took a paper and a pen, and numbered the children in order from near to far.

Then they knocked on the door door to door in order.

Some of them cooperated, and some did not. Some hoped that the police would solve the case as soon as possible, and some feared that the police would scare their children.

"We don't know that, we really don't know."

"Our children are not familiar with Namu's granddaughter either."

"What do these children remember? They come back after going out to play every day. What useful clues can they provide?"

Lu Qinghe stood downstairs drinking ice water. He told Shen Changyan, "When I came here, I thought that it would not go well, but I didn't fucking expect it to be so bad."

He was almost exhausted, and Lu Qinghe was sweating profusely. He propped his hands on the stone platform and poured a bottle of water into his stomach. He was about to collapse.

On the contrary, Shen Changyan seemed much calmer. This person had a cold aura all over his body, and there was not a drop of sweat on his forehead. Even drinking a bottle of mineral water, he looked much more elegant than Lu Qinghe.

Shen Changyan said, "Take a break, there are two left."

Lu Qinghe said, "Go ahead, what if someone still refuses to open the door for us?"

Shen Changyan said, "I'll write down those who didn't open the door, and I'll come back later for a return visit."

Lu Qinghe collapsed, he took a deep breath, then looked up at the scorching sun in despair.

"Okay, let's go."
