No. 7 Fish House

Near noon, Xing Ting washed the dishes and put them on the cutting board, shredded the carrots and green peppers and put them aside, and made the sauce in a small bowl, which contained soy sauce, vinegar and chili oil.After the noodles are cooked, soak them in cold water, then put ginger, garlic, carrot shreds, and green pepper shreds into the pot and fry them. Then put the cooled noodles into the pot, pour in the beaten sauce and stir fry together.

"Did you put the shrimp?" Yang Mingzhen walked in from the outside at some point, and Xing Ting's hand holding the spatula shook in fright, "I told you never to put mushrooms, I hate that thing the most. "

Xing Ting really wanted to take a spatula and shovel Feiyang Mingzhen's head with one shovel, "Why do you ask for so many, there are no shrimps, if you want to eat, buy it yourself!"

The last time I spent three days with Yang Mingzhen in the police station, Xing Ting really couldn't get used to the cafeteria of their police station, it was an insult to the food!So Xing Ting sneaked in and cooked a plate of fried noodles by himself, but was caught by Yang Mingzhen, and after the two of them finished eating a plate of fried noodles, Yang Mingzhen was thinking about it.

It's just that Xing Ting admires Yang Mingzhen. In the past few days, there has been no famous painting murder case, and another embroidered leather jacket case came. He is still in the mood to eat fried noodles.

"You have a big heart, aren't you afraid of being invited by your bureau chief to eat fried squid?" Xing Ting divided the fried noodles into two plates, handed one plate to Yang Mingzhen, and carried the other plate to the dining table.

Holding the fried noodles in one hand and the apple in the other, Yang Mingzhen said, "I definitely want to eat fried squid. Actually, I don't really want to do it anymore."

Xing Ting felt surprised, "This doesn't look like Yang Mingzhen's style at all. Did you suffer any grievances at the police station? Tell me and let me have fun."

"Go, go, go." Yang Mingzhen sat down on his buttocks, and finished eating the apple in his hand. He looked at the plate of fried noodles with some melancholy, "Maybe, this is the last time I come to your place for dinner, and the case will be settled in a few days." If it can’t be broken any longer, I might have to retire and return home.”

"Are you serious?" Xing Ting suddenly felt that he could no longer hit Yang Mingzhen, and he needed to give some comfort, "Actually, you are really a rare good policeman in the tea city. I have seen many of them in the Jianghu these years. Man, this is the first time I've seen you being so honest."

Yang Mingzhen stopped his hand about to take the chopsticks, and glared at Xing Ting, "Don't you just say I'm stupid?"

Xing Ting nodded, "Although you are really stupid, isn't your stupidity a blessing to the common people?"

"Hey, I really appreciate you complimenting me!" Yang Mingzhen picked up the chopsticks, put the fried noodles into his mouth, chewed them a few times, he felt that the fried noodles were really delicious, "Say, I'm going back to my hometown How about opening a noodle restaurant? Or, just open a noodle restaurant in this city?"

"Thank you, there are many noodle restaurants in the tea city, and you are not missing." Xing Ting slid his face, feeling the charm of delicious food.

Yang Mingzhen was speechless, "Then I'll fund a restaurant, and you come to me as a cook."

Xing Ting put down his chopsticks and stared at Yang Mingzhen: "I said, Captain Yang, why are you so sad today? You don't really want to come and discuss food with me, do you? Regarding the human skin case that just happened today , you're not going to tell me?"

He saw Yang Mingzhen hesitating to speak at the scene, and knew that this guy was definitely not just coming to eat fried noodles.Now I have eaten more than half of the noodles, but I haven't talked about the matter yet.

Yang Mingzhen waved his hand and said, "Let's eat, let's continue to eat and talk about it after we finish eating, otherwise I'm afraid if we talk about it now, we'll throw up while eating."

"Is it that serious?" Xing Ting frowned.

He hasn't seen any disgusting things since he provoked He Fu and Yang Mingzhen. Could it be that this time the human skin case has reached a new level of disgust?

The two buried their heads in eating the noodles, and the plates were cleaned after a while.

Xing Ting raised his head and looked at Yang Mingzhen with his chin propped on both hands: "Captain Yang, can we talk now?"

Yang Mingzhen wiped his mouth with a handkerchief delicately.

"I found three leather jackets in Charming Life's clothing store this morning. According to the customer, when she was choosing clothes, she found a soft leather jacket among the pile of clothes. At that time, she thought it felt good, so she put that When the clothes were pulled out, it turned out to be a piece of human skin." Yang Mingzhen said, "At that time, all the customers in the store were scared away, only the clerk Xiao Nan, the boss Su Xi, and a fainted female student Ma Lan remained. Flowers. After finding three human leather clothes hanging in the clothes, the boss Susie reported to the police, and our people rushed to the scene to conduct a preliminary investigation on the scene.”

Xing Ting asked: "You have checked, are those clothes really made of human skin?"

Yang Mingzhen nodded, and took out three photos from his bag, that's why he asked Xing Ting to finish the meal before discussing.The photo shows a black and white appearance, but in fact, the three human skin clothes still have blood and flesh. It feels like the skin has not been peeled clean, and there are still two pieces of meat stuck to it.

These three leather jackets are much smaller than normal leather jackets. It is estimated that only five or six-year-old children can wear them. They only have the shape of clothes, and they are not completely stitched. Sparse, not dense, it can be seen that it was sewn by a poor hand.

Each leather jacket was embroidered with three or four flowers. The horrible embroidery work and the few pieces of hanging meat made people sick to their stomachs.

"The forensic doctor has examined this human skin. In fact, the murderer was very careful when peeling the skin. It stands to reason that with his knife technique, it is impossible to hang a few pieces of meat on it." Yang Mingzhen said.

Xing Ting looked at it and his scalp became numb: "This is completely intentional, hanging some meat on it is scary, this murderer is too perverted!"

Yang Mingzhen continued: "This skin is very delicate, like a woman's skin. I asked Cui Liang to check if there are any women among the missing persons in the tea city recently. He told me that there are four in total."

Speaking of this, Yang Mingzhen took out the notebook he was carrying, which clearly recorded the four missing persons.

Xu Pingping, 40 years old, suffered from dementia and disappeared six months ago.

Chen Ju, who disappeared half a month ago, was studying at Tea City College.

Qin Wei, 25 years old, disappeared twelve days ago, a teacher at Tea City College.

Zhang Ruyue, 28 years old, disappeared 20 days ago, a small employee of a certain company.

"Two of these four people are from Tea City College. I wonder if there is some kind of connection between them?" Xing Ting looked at Chen Ju and Qin Wei, whose names were both used by Yang Mingzhen The red pen is circled.

"I also asked Cui Liang to investigate these two, and there is no clue yet." Yang Mingzhen rubbed his head, "Anyway, none of these four people has anything to do with Charming Life Dress Shop, and they haven't even entered the shop. Who would take their skins and put them in a store?"

Xing Ting has a different view on this. He has been with He Fu for a long time, and the thoughts in his mind can't help thinking. If He Fu encounters this matter, what will He Fu think?

He stroked his chin and thought: "If the murderer just killed people randomly, and Chen Ju and Qin Wei happened to be from the same school, then it might just be a coincidence. Therefore, their deaths don't necessarily have to be related to Charming Life Dress Shop, maybe Is it because the murderer casually put the human skin in Charming Life's shop after the murder, and wanted to display his work?"

Yang Mingzhen nodded, and continued: "My buddy, Xiao Nan, told me that the clothes on that row of hangers were new clothes he just put on three days ago, and the source of the new clothes was designed by the boss Su Xi himself. Xiao Nan is sure He checked carefully when hanging the clothes, and the pile of clothes was normal and there was no human skin inside. He also said that after the clothes were hung up, the row of hangers had not been touched by anyone..."

"Why doesn't anyone try on new clothes?" Xing Ting asked, "Shouldn't new clothes be the most tried on?"

Yang Mingzhen was a little helpless, and said: "Those clothes are designed by Susie herself, uh... Susie, you know that? That man with strange aesthetics always dresses himself up as neither male nor female. What about the clothes he designed? Someone might wear it?"

Xing Ting was speechless.

"The place where the clothes are hung is the high-end area of ​​the store. Most people don't go there. Even if they go, the store owner should help him pick up the clothes and try them on. Xiao Nan usually stays there, so he's sure that this person It's not stuffed by customers."

Xing Ting said again: "It wasn't the customer who stuffed it in, then it should be the guy and the boss himself. Are there any other questions? Arrest these two people and interrogate them, won't you know the result?"

Yang Mingzhen gave him a white look: "Of course it is necessary to interrogate them, but it is definitely not as simple as you said. How can a boss put human skins in his shop? Isn't this tarnishing his own brand? Will anyone come to buy clothes?"

"Uh...it seems to be right." Xing Ting thought about it, "That should be done by his competitor! In order to discredit his brand, the competitor sent someone to sneak into the store and put the human skin in the pile in clothes."

"We also took this into consideration and checked the doors and windows of their store to see if there were any signs of damage." Yang Mingzhen said, "The answer is no."

"We found footprints on the window sill." Yang Mingzhen took out a black and white photo. The footprints in the photo were very shallow, so they couldn't be seen clearly. The footprints seemed to be printed on the window sill because they stepped on the wet soil. .There was also a little dirt on the side, and because of the rain a few days ago, the traces were diluted.

"Someone turned in through the window, put down their clothes, and then turned out through the window?" Xing Ting looked at the footprints and said his inner guess, "The murderer must be the buddy Xiao Nan!"

"I checked Xiao Nan." Yang Mingzhen said, "The clothing store has been open for two and a half years now, during which time Susie has changed three staffs, this Xiao Nan is the third one, and he has been here the longest. He joined the job in April last year. Prior to this, Xiao Nan had no work experience, because he had some mental disabilities, and no one else was willing to take him in."

"Use a fool to discredit Susie's shop." Xing Ting gritted his teeth, "His heart can be punished."

"There is no evidence, why are you so sure that Xiao Nan did it?" Yang Mingzhen continued, "It is also surprising that Xiao Nan not only has no work experience, even his real name we don't know. Can't find out..."

Xing Ting knocked on the table and said, "Look, isn't this enough to make people suspicious!"

"He seems to have suddenly appeared in this city, and there is no information about him before, and people around him say they don't know him at all," Yang Mingzhen said.

"The background is so clean, if it's not an orphan who came to this city suddenly, then it should be the son of the leader of a mysterious gang!" Xing Ting analyzed seriously, and Yang Mingzhen glared at him, "Can you be less Read some scripts?"

Xing Ting retorted: "It's written like this in other people's books. There are only two reasons why a person can't find out his life experience. One is that he doesn't have one at all, and his background is unknown. The other is that he doesn't want you to find out at all. .”

Yang Mingzhen knew that he couldn't say enough about this person, so he didn't bother to say it.

"Then have you checked the owner Suxi? I ​​heard that he returned from overseas three years ago?" Xing Ting said.

"Check it out." Yang Mingzhen said, "Su Xi is an orphan without father and mother. He has always been studious after being adopted by the master of the Su family. Studying abroad. After returning, Su Xi stayed in Weishui for a while, and then opened a shop in the tea city. The fabrics in Weishui are good, and some of the clothes in his store are purchased from Weishui. "

"Jishui is not far from the tea city, so it's a neighbor."

Xing Ting smiled and said: "Then we don't take the usual route, you start to check from Weishui to see if Xiao Nan has stayed in Weishui. The police on the side of Weishui have a good relationship with you, right?"

"Uh...not very good." Yang Mingzhen said, "I went on a business trip half a year ago and offended a kid over there. Now that he's been promoted, if you need to investigate the people over there, you need to ask him to order .”

"I said you, why do you always offend people?" Xing Ting rolled his eyes at him, "You should go for a visit yourself, I'll keep an eye on the movement for you here."

Yang Mingzhen raised his eyebrows: "When did you tell me to talk about it?"

"Then do you still want to solve the case?" Xing Ting asked.

"think."

"Then you don't go yet." Xing Ting urged, "You start tomorrow morning!"

Yang Mingzhen was about to get up and leave when he suddenly thought of something, turned around to look at Xing Ting and said, "I should really show you those human leather clothes, the red thread used to sew the human skin is just like He Fu's hand." The red line is exactly the same."

"I even wondered if He Fu sewed those clothes!"

Xing Ting was clearing the dishes, he was startled when he heard this sentence, he raised his head and looked at Yang Mingzhen, "It should be... no, don't you think it's him when you see the red line."

Yang Mingzhen snorted coldly: "It's better not to be him, otherwise the two cases add up, and if I catch him, I will definitely kill him. It will make me feel bad all day long!"

After saying these words, Yang Mingzhen strode out of No. [-] fish restaurant.

Xing Ting ran to close the door, heaved a long sigh of relief, the plague god finally left.After washing the dishes, Xing Ting brought out the porridge from the pot and put it in the window.

"Come out and eat, there are shrimps in it."

A black shadow passed by, and the porridge on the window sill disappeared.

"Hey, when are you coming back?"

The white porcelain bowl fell from above and shattered with a bang, the man remained silent.

Xing Ting looked at the broken bowl outside the window, just as Yang Mingzhen guessed, the red line on the leather jacket was really the red line in He Fu's palm.

But he is still willing to cook for this person, because he believes that He Fu will not kill anyone.Because this foolish person couldn't even bear to kill a chicken, so he actually said to him: Chicken is very cute, why should I eat it.

The window was closed, Xing Ting lay back on the sofa, Xiao Mi jumped onto his chest, and swept his chin with her cat tail.

"Wait a little longer, he will come back later."

He gritted his teeth and thought, it's better to come back, don't waste my few precious shrimps, I am reluctant to eat them in fried noodles!
