Criminal Investigation Notes
Chapter 88:
Song Wen and Lu Siyu got the materials copied by Captain Wang from the traffic side, and brought them back to the city bureau. The return journey was already past 6 o'clock.
While Lu Siyu was cooking dinner, Song Wen received a call from Fu Linjiang.
"Team Song, we found the small hotel where Chen Yanqiu stayed last according to the previous investigation. I just went there to confirm it. The hotel owner saw Chen Yanqiu's photo and confirmed that he had met him."
On this day, the other colleagues in the city bureau were not idle either. They were looking for the traces of Chen Yanqiu before his death.Fu Linjiang's discovery is undoubtedly a great progress for the investigation of the case. After finding this hotel, it is possible to know what happened after Chen Yanqiu, and to further reason about his specific death time and narrow the scope of investigation.
Lu Siyu came out with the food and put a plate of eggplants on the table. He turned his head when he heard Song Wen's words and asked in a low voice, "Is there any progress?"
Song Wenchong made a silent gesture, signalling not to let Fu Linjiang hear his voice, and then turned on the hands-free: "Where is the specific location of the hotel?"
"On Maochang Street, there is a small hotel called Ruyi Hotel. Since the check-in information here is not connected to the Internet and still maintains handwritten registration, it took some time for us to check here." Fu Linjiang paused and said, "Chen Yanqiu For registration here, the identity information of Zhang Rui and the ID photos of the two people are a bit similar, so the boss has no doubt."
Hearing these words, Song Wen really felt that Chen Yanqiu's last period of life was real. He was not a ghost, but a living person.He knew Maochang Street, which was a shanty town in the west of the city. The demolition work was only halfway through, and some self-built houses had many rooms empty.The homeowners remodeled the house and opened it into a small hotel, which is a bit similar to a family hotel. This kind of hotel has only a few rooms and the price is very low. Sometimes it takes a few hundred to live for a month.Rich people despise this place, but here is another home for migrant workers or poor people.
"Does the owner of the hotel provide any clues?"
"The location of this small hotel is a bit off, the business is average, and there are not many regular residents like him, so the boss still has the impression. The boss said that Chen Yanqiu stayed in the hotel in January this year and paid in cash and stayed there together. For more than a month, he also said that he often went out. By the way, he found that Chen Yanqiu was ill. When he cleaned the room, there were many medicine bottles written in foreign languages. In the middle, Chen Yanqiu had a fever and couldn't get up. He even cooked porridge for Chen Yanqiu. , Asked him if he needed to contact relatives and friends, but Chen Yanqiu refused. On the morning of February 3rd, before the Chinese New Year, Chen Yanqiu suddenly said that he would go out early in the morning. He also said that he would come back after the holiday and leave a box of things with the boss. I left it and never came back."
"The boss says he goes out often, do you know where he goes?"
"That's not clear."
"Have you checked your luggage?"
"I have done a rough inspection with gloves on. There are no contraband or dangerous goods. They are all daily necessities. I will stay back to the city bureau and let the physical evidence to check again."
Song Wen continued to ask: "Did Chen Yanqiu say what he is going to do in the end?"
"I just told the boss that he was going to do something. The boss thought he was going to visit relatives." Fu Linjiang remembered something and added, "By the way, the boss said that Chen Yanqiu seemed to be in a good mood that day, and he gave it to him. His son has a pack of peanuts. Chen Yanqiu also said,'When things are done, I will be relaxed.'"
Song Wen frowned slightly when he heard this, and when things were done, he was relieved, so what would he do?
"The boss said he remembered it very clearly, because it was just before the New Year, and the guests were all going home for the New Year, and they were almost gone. He originally wanted to ask Chen Yanqiu when he would live, thinking about closing the door for a few days during the New Year. After resting for a few days, Chen Yanqiu just left the room. The day he left, it happened to catch up with the temperature drop. There was a little snow in the morning... Well, by the way, when I looked at Chen Yanqiu’s luggage, I found that his clothes were stacked. It has to be very neat."
The stacks are very neat, so it is possible that Chen Yanqiu understands that he might not come back.
On the morning before the New Year, Chen Yanqiu disappeared at the end of the street in the snow, and no one knew where he went.
Is there any special significance at this time on the eve of the Spring Festival?That was supposed to be the day when the family reunited, but at that time, Chen Yanqiu was a seriously ill patient, and his sister got on the bus from the north to find the light.But he died and was thrown at the chemical factory.Is this result what he expected, or was it unexpected?
"Good job and hard work. I have some progress here. I will come to the bureau tomorrow to talk more." After Song Wen hung up the phone, he saw Lu Siyu facing a table of vegetables and thinking, today Two people came back late, dinner was relatively simple, only two dishes and one soup, and the soup was still made of tomato and egg soup.
Song Wen picked up his chopsticks and took a bite. Although the dishes were simple and homely, the taste was not compromised at all. He said to Lu Si: "Ah, don't just think about the case. It's been a day of tossing, eat quickly."
Lu Siyu only had time to make a few dishes in a hurry today, and he was a bit disgusted at this time.Song Wen gobbled it up beside him, but he had no appetite. It seemed that all his hard work had been spent on the case, and he was forced to cook without having any other energy.
But Lu Siyu knew that he needed to eat more. He had just been seriously ill before, and he was abstaining from drugs recently. If the diet is not regular, he himself does not know what this body needs to survive. After all, he There are so many things to do.
He was in a daze, but Song Wen's hand suddenly pressed against his forehead. Lu Siyu forgot to hide for a moment, blinked, raised his head and asked Song Wen, "What?"
Song Wen let go of his hand: "I don't have a fever, why are you in a daze?" In fact, Lu Siyu's forehead was not hot, even a little cold.
Lu Siyu shook his head, wishing to bury his head in the bowl. There was no expression on his white face, but the tips of his ears were a little red.He was too mad just now, not paying attention to Song Wen and suddenly posted.Now, on his forehead is the temperature of Song Wen's hand.
After eating this meal for half an hour, Lu Siyu forced himself to eat half a bowl of rice. After eating it, it was a bit disgusting. He put down the bowl and chopsticks. Song Wen saw that he didn't eat much and asked, "Why? Dinner?"
Lu Siyu said: "Maybe I'm too hungry, and I just ate in the kitchen. It's normal to be hungry."
Song Wen seemed to see through his lie, and moved closer and asked, "Are you really okay? There is something wrong with you during the day." Under the white light, Lu Siyu's face turned paler and his spotlessness made people feel distressed.
Lu Siyu raised his head to look at him. Qingxiu's face looked calmly: "Maybe there was a drug-forbidden reaction. In the afternoon, I had a headache, but not too serious.
Song Wen looked at him and said, "If you feel wrong, you have to say it." He looked directly at Lu Siyu's eyes. At that moment, Lu Siyu felt a little vain. He somehow thought of the prisoner being interrogated. He bowed his head and hid. Passing Song Wen's gaze, he asked, "What? If you lie and conceal a report, will Officer Song arrest me?"
Song Wen pulled his hand forward and made a handcuff gesture: "Take you to see a doctor."
"Don't worry, there is no serious condition at present, and I have no stomach pain in these two days." Lu Siyu habitually licked his lips while speaking, and paused for a second. "I don't like hospitals."
In the evening, as usual, I summarized the progress of the case and then went to bed.
At two o'clock in the morning, Song Wen was awakened by the sound of rain. It seems that it was from the memory of his childhood. As long as it was rainy night, he would not sleep well. The sound of wind outside the window was mixed with the sound of rain. When he hit the glass, his consciousness gradually became clear. In the darkness, the humid air was tumbling and surging, and the temperature dropped, even making people feel a little cold.
Then Song Wen went to the bathroom and habitually took a look at Lu Siyu's room and found that Lu Siyu was not in bed.
Song Wen put on slippers and went out, and then saw the light on the third floor study room.He pushed open the concealed door and saw Lu Siyu sitting at the desk, holding the sleepy little wolf in his arms, stroking his fur.Lu Siyu looked up and saw him. He was not surprised and did not explain anything.
Song Wen pointed to the phone: "Do you know what time it is?"
Lu Siyu lowered his head, like a kid who had done something wrong: "I'm sorry, I can't sleep." When it started to rain, Lu Siyu woke up. He was hungry. He was not full for dinner. Afraid of stomach troubles, I got up and warmed up a cup of milk and couldn't sleep.
Song Wen was stunned by a sentence from Lu Siyu: "Oh, I'm sorry, I mean it's only two o'clock, let's go to the meeting again, I can't sit in this way until dawn." Song Wen rubbed his eyes. "And next time you don't come out so quietly. If you can't sleep, shake me up and chat. It's boring to sit here alone in the middle of the night."
Lu Siyu said slightly, "I don't want to disturb you and make you feel that I am cumbersome."
Song Wendao: "Didn't I move here for this?"
Lu Siyu gave a hum, and then got up and put the little wolf who was dozing off in his arms carefully into its den.The two people went to Lu Siyu’s room this time. Song Wen sat on the side of the bed and said, “I’ll stay with you for a while. You just sat alone in the study, want to file a case?”
Lu Siyu said, "There are so few points, I haven't figured it out."
Song Wenwang landed Siyu’s side face and suddenly became serious: "You are investigating the case and investigating the case. Those people-those who have died or are about to die, are like whirlpools, or, in other words, like black holes, will It sucks people in. I know you like to lead yourself into reasoning, but this time you must not sink yourself into it."
Death is the same as disease, and that emotion is like a virus spreading, and it is contagious.
Lu Siyu recently stopped taking the medicine, and his health is not good. It is in an unstable period that he is easily affected by these people and things.
"Yeah." Lu Siyu's eyes suddenly became wet. It must be a side effect of a recent lack of medication.At least in this world, someone still cares about him.He turned his back, his fingers still trembling slightly.
Song Wen glanced at Lu Siyu who was lying on his side, his eyes sinking suddenly.In the study just now, he reached out and touched the power supply of Lu Siyu's laptop. Although it looked like the computer was turned off, the power supply was warm.For the case of Wushan Nursing Home, for Gu Zhibai, and for many things, Lu Siyu has his persistence.
Suddenly, Song Wen hesitated, whether he wanted to move on, he was getting closer and closer to the secret of Lu Siyu.
