"Li Xiao has always been very obedient." Wang Xueqin said, "He has been very obedient since he was a child, and he never caused trouble. People around him say that our family is so lucky. The children born are good-looking and obedient. We are the parents. Blessed. After entering primary school, he gets along well with the classmates in the class, and he has never heard of any trouble with other children. The teacher also likes him. Does the adult not like the self-conscious and obedient child?"

"What happened to him?" Nico asked suddenly.

"It was an accident." Wang Xueqin was stunned, and said stiffly, "Sixteen days ago, Li Xiao's father and I were busy with work, and we planned to spare a few days to take him out to play. We let him go home by himself that day. , specially told him to let him go with his friends and not go home alone. But...but his friend was sick that day and didn't go to school. Li Xiao didn't tell us because he was afraid that we would be worried. That night we It was already late when he and his father got off work, but when we got home, we found that Li Xiao hadn’t come home. Just as we were about to go out to find him, we opened the door and found...that child, his clothes were all torn and loose Hanging on the body, bruises and abrasions all over the body..."

Speaking of this, she seemed to recall the scene of that night again, she couldn't help but hugged her arms tightly, and grabbed her clothes with both hands, her knuckles were so hard that her knuckles turned white.She seemed to be angry, but also seemed to be afraid, her lips were tightly closed, sobbing silently.

"Auntie, didn't you call the police?" Conan took the tissue from Nico and passed it to Wang Xueqin.

"Call the police..." Wang Xueqin smiled wryly, "What's the use of calling the police? After two days of investigation, we were only told that the person had a mental illness and needed a psychiatric appraisal. Hmph, it's useless if you catch him. It’s not impossible to bear criminal responsibility. It’s useless at all.”

"Auntie, do you know that the body of a mental patient was found on the Golden Avenue this morning?" Nico asked.

"He deserves to die. If such a scourge stays in the world, sooner or later, more people will be harmed." Wang Xueqin said through gritted teeth.

"Auntie, since this is the case, I'll take my brother back first. I'm sorry to disturb you." Nico suddenly got up and said.

"Stop sitting for a while longer?" Wang Xueqin said with some embarrassment, "I'm sorry, it's all about Auntie, and I didn't treat you well."

"It's okay, auntie, you've worked hard during this period, so take a good rest." After speaking, Nico pulled Conan and left Li Xiao's house.

Wang Xueqin stood alone in the living room, looking straight at the direction the two left, until her back disappeared from sight, she seemed to breathe a sigh of relief, her legs softened, and she slumped on the sofa.

"What do you think?" Conan walked aside, recalling what Wang Xueqin said just now, and asked Nico.

"I don't think it's fake." Nico said, "NPCs in the novice guidance stage should not provide false clues. However, I think she is hiding something, and her attitude is a bit strange."

"We mentioned the case of Sun Chenglong just now. We didn't tell her who it was. She has been paying attention to the murderer who killed her son." Conan said, "She said that Li Xiao's father was resting in the room, but we After staying in their home for such a long time, without even seeing anyone, it is still a bit suspicious. It is possible that Li Zhong is not at home at all."

"Go and ask the property. Since it is a gimmick of 24-hour uninterrupted security, there is no reason not to know the residents' entry and exit." Nico thought for a while, and the two returned to the property office again.

"Hello, Manager Zheng from the property?" Nico asked, knocking on the open door of the property office.

"I am." Manager Zheng who was sitting at the desk looking at something looked up, "Mr. Nico, is there anything else?"

"It's like this. A related person lives in this community in a case we are investigating. If possible, can you let us have a look at the surveillance of the community?" Nico said.

"No problem, but didn't the two of you ask the staff to take you to the resident's house for questioning?" Manager Zheng got up and led the two to the monitoring room.

"Yes, we have already made an inquiry. But we still need to check the relevant travel records with you." Nico explained.

"Oh, it's okay, you can just investigate, our property will definitely cooperate with your work." Manager Zheng looked at Conan who was following him, smiled and said, "It's not easy for you, you are assisting the police in handling cases at such a young age , with a child."

"Well...my brother, there is no one at home, so he can only take him to work." Nico thought for a while and said.

"That was really hard work. This is the surveillance room. All the surveillance videos of our community are here." Manager Zheng pushed open the door, took the two of them in, and asked, "Do you want to check the 12-1-301 Let’s videotape the entry and exit of the head of the household, Li Zhong, what time will it be?”

"It's enough to record the entry and exit from yesterday during the day to now, it's troublesome." Nico said.

"Hi, it's okay." Manager Zheng said with a smile, "Speaking of which, this Li Zhong's family has been really not peaceful recently, and everything happened to him."

"Uncle, are you talking about their family's Li Xiao?" Conan saw that Nico was watching the surveillance video, so he followed Manager Zheng's words and asked.

"Yeah, it's about their son." Manager Zheng said, "Li Xiao was bullied by others some time ago, and he came home after school for a long time, covered in injuries. I don't know if he was bullied Who made it."

"Uncle, did you see it?" Conan asked.

"Well, I also bought a house in this community, which is above Li Zhong's house." Manager Zheng explained.

"But I heard from Aunt Wang that their Li Xiao has passed away." Conan continued to ask.

"Yes." Manager Zheng nodded and said, "It wasn't a big deal at first, but I just said that I was a little stimulated and needed more care and guidance from my family. But then, on the second day after Li Zhong and the others called the police, Something happened to the child."

"What happened?" Conan already had a guess in his heart, so he asked.

"Only two days after calling the police, the child committed suicide by locking himself in the room." Manager Zheng said with a sigh, "It's a pity that such a good child died at such a young age. Since then, Li Zhong has been like It's like a different person, I don't go to work all day, I just go out to find a place to drink when I have nothing to do, and I don't come back very often, and the police report has been revoked. I guess I have been hit too hard and I can't bear it."

"That's right." Conan nodded.

"Manager Zheng, please copy a copy of this surveillance video to this USB flash drive, thank you." Niko finished watching the surveillance video at this time, walked over and handed a USB flash drive and said.

"Okay, wait a minute." Manager Zheng took the USB flash drive and took it to copy the video.

"How is it?" Conan looked up at Nico and asked.

"That's what you think." Nico nodded and said, "Li Zhong hasn't been home since he went out during the day yesterday. As for Wang Xueqin, she went out around 12 o'clock last night and came back an hour later. She must know something about Sun Chenglong's case."

"Mr. Nico, your USB flash drive. All the parts you want have been copied in. Is there anything else we can do for you?" Manager Zheng asked as he handed over the USB flash drive.

"Do you know the exact place where Li Zhongping usually goes to drink?" Niko looked back and asked seriously.

"This, it should be on the side of the Golden Avenue." Manager Zheng replied after thinking about it.
