Adventure

Chapter 9

When Zhao Ping saw the policeman, he restrained his temper slightly, snorted slightly, and said to Ruan Zhen, "Investigate, just investigate. I haven't done anything anyway, and I have no ghosts in my heart. I'm afraid some people can't explain their whereabouts."

Chen Rong suddenly became angry when she heard the words, and said coldly with red eyes: "The police officer hasn't said anything yet, and you are so anxious to guide people's attention? We are all classmates, don't make me so shameless!"

"What are you arguing about?" Hu Xiaoming scolded everyone with a straight face, showing a bit of a police officer's posture, "It's just a routine questioning, we all go downstairs and get in the car."

This time, there were the corpse truck from the funeral home and two police cars. Chen Han followed the corpse truck to the funeral home, and Ruan Zhen went to the police station for questioning.Except for Ruan Zhen, the questions and answers of the others were very simple, because they all said that they slept in the room all night and never went out. Although it cannot be ruled out that some people lied, there is no sufficient reason to doubt what they said. Hao Hao, and Zhao Ping and the others are very ordinary classmates, and there is no complicated situation such as dramatic love and hatred.

But when it was Ruan Zhen's turn, something went wrong.At first, Ruan Zhen was very calm, saying that he had nightmares in the middle of the night, and he didn’t come back all night because he went to live in Xia Yue’s house, and showed Hu Xiaoming the communication information on his mobile phone, and he did check them one by one. Finally, he said: “I woke up from a nightmare. At that time, Shi Yong was disturbed by turning on the lights, and he asked me what was wrong. He was fine at that time, and someone must have gone in to commit murder after I left! Brother Xia is your boss, he can never cover up Me? If you ask him, you will know that what I said is true."

After hearing the last sentence, Hu Xiaoming showed a look of disbelief, and asked Ruan Zhen: "What did you say? This person named Xia Yue is my boss?"

Ruan Zhen was very strange, and said: "That's right, didn't you say that your boss went to Cangxi Village first, and you and police officer Xiao Chen came later?"

Hu Xiaoming didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "I did, but who told you that my boss is Xia Yue? You saw my boss just now, the person who walked with us is asking your classmate in the next room!"

Because everyone basically didn't talk much along the way, Ruan Zhen thought that the middle-aged man with a beer belly was a policeman from the village police station, and he was just working with Hu Xiaoming and Chen Han. After being told by Hu Xiaoming, Ruan Zhen was dumbfounded He said in a daze, "Impossible... Brother Xia, he clearly..."

Hu Xiaoming was aware of the seriousness of the problem, and was extremely serious. His tone was a bit aggressive: "It was Xia Yue who told you that he was a police detective? Then he is lying and deceiving people for other purposes. Since he is close to you, he must be I also tried to figure out your situation, who you lived with, which room you lived in, and you revealed him?"

"This... I probably didn't tell him carefully."

"What time did you sleep at his house last night? Do you sleep in the same room?"

Ruan Zhen thought about it carefully, and suddenly he couldn't even remember how he fell asleep last night. He only remembered that he and Xia Yue were sitting on the wicker chair on the balcony talking, and Xia Yue confessed his love forcefully while talking, and then kissed him One bite, and he fell asleep...

Ruan Zhen naturally didn't intend to tell these details, but said: "We slept in the same room, but I was too tired to hold on and fell asleep first. When I woke up, it was around 9 o'clock this morning. At that time, others He’s not at home anymore, he just sent me a message to tell me that he’s going out.” Then he let Hu Xiaoming read the two messages again.

"That's even more suspicious," Hu Xiaoming said with a sneer. "He first lied to you about your identity, and then lured you away from the hotel. Then you went to his house and fell asleep until this morning, so he has enough time to go to the hotel." Murder kills!"

"That's not it!" Ruan Zhen was emotional, and suddenly raised his voice, "He didn't say that he was a police detective, I misunderstood myself, Brother Xia is not a bad person, and besides, he didn't know Shi Yong at all, and he didn't intend to kill him at all. Why?"

"These are not things you need to consider. Even if Xia Yue knew Shi Yong, he wouldn't tell you. Besides, have the three of you met together? Did they know each other? Did they have any grievances in other places?" , you have no way of knowing."

Ruan Zhen was devastated, and suddenly remembered the night they first met, Xia Yue was on the side of the field road not far behind the hotel, and he was smoking under a tree, who would go to such a place to smoke at night without any problems, could it be that he really Because Shi Yong appeared near there?And when he came to pick him up last night, Xia Yue was obviously riding a police car. Could it be that he specially designed this?

"Well," Hu Xiaoming reminded Ruan Zhen when he saw Ruan Zhen remained silent, "you call Xia Yue and ask where he is now."

Ruan Zhen woke up like a dream, grabbed the phone and dialed the number while saying yes, but what he got after waiting was a cold shutdown prompt.

Hu Xiaoming saw the young man opposite him sitting on the stool with a hurt face and dull eyes. He only thought that he was afraid of being cheated, and kindly persuaded him: "Do you know where Xia Yue's house is? It seems that we have to pay a visit." .”

Ruan Zhen shook his head and added carefully after a few seconds: "Brother Xia took me there on a motorcycle. I was not familiar with the roads of the village, and it was already past 12 o'clock in the middle of the night. I didn't look at the road at all. In the morning, I went directly to the hotel where I took the three rounds of electricity. I just remember that the old houses were all self-built, basically two floors, and walked out of the alley to the main road, and there was a small supermarket called Hello everyone.”

Hu Xiaoming called in a police officer, a native of Cangxi, and he said after listening: "I know this place, and now the village basically builds new buildings, and the old house on the second floor he mentioned was the one of my grandparents. The place where the elders live is in the east of the village."

"Okay, you go with us."

The three set off immediately, Zhao Ping looked at Ruan Zhen's back and sneered at Feng Yuan beside him: "What did I say, Ruan Zhen is suspected, who knows what conflicts he and Shi Yong have in private."

Feng Yuan couldn't help frowning when he heard the words, and looked down on Zhao Ping's appearance of being in trouble, and said, "Don't talk nonsense, Ruan Zhen has the best temper, and he is not very courageous, how could he kill people at every turn."

Zhao Ping snorted, "The rabbit bites even when it's in a hurry."

With the help of the village police to find the way, the three of Hu Xiaoming arrived at the old housing area in the east of the village without much effort. Ruan Zhen put down his phone, but Xia Yue's phone was still turned off, but he finally breathed a sigh of relief seeing the familiar scene , Said: "That's right here, just go into the penultimate house."

The door on the first floor was ajar, and Hu Xiaoming pushed it open lightly, but he frowned and asked vigilantly, "Why isn't the door locked?"

Ruan Zhen replied: "I left in a hurry in the morning, and I can't remember whether I closed the door or not. Maybe I forgot to bring it." But he thought in his heart, it's past 11 o'clock. Don't come back to eat?

Hu Xiaoming stood outside the door and shouted a few times, and then reported the door, but no one answered. Finally, he found that the lock of the outer door was broken and could not be closed at all, so he walked in.The inside of the house was the same as when Ruan Zhen left, the four doors were locked tightly and none of them could be opened, and the three of them walked up the stairs to the upper floor without forcing.

Ruan Zhen took the lead and walked in the front, pointing to the closed door at the end of the stairs and said, "This is the room where Brother Xia and I stayed last night, and the balcony is on the other side..."

The person who was speaking had already walked out of the stairs, Ruan Zhen saw the scene in front of him, and almost didn't pick it up in one breath. Last night, the dreamlike scene of enjoying the flowers under the moon and gossiping on the rattan chair was just what happened a few hours ago, and now Look again, the railings on the edge of the balcony are rusty and stained, and the gray paint has even peeled off in some places, making them dilapidated, and the two comfortable rattan chairs in the middle are completely gone, not to mention the pots of finely tailored furniture. Flowers.

Hu Xiaoming twisted the doorknob, very strange: "This door is also locked, Ruan Zhen, do you have the door key?"

Ruan Zhen shook his head with his back to Hu Xiaoming, regardless of whether he could see it or not, he just thought that the big bed and soft quilt in this room may have disappeared completely. This house has obviously been uninhabited for a long time. What grandpa, what? Xia Yue, what together is like the flowers blooming under the moon, it's all nothingness.

The more Hu Xiaoming thought about it, the more wrong he got, he took two steps back and kicked open the door. The old wooden door couldn't withstand a full blow from an adult man, and it was kicked open with a single snap. Sure enough, the inside was empty, only the cold walls.

"That's not right," Hu Xiaoming was not stupid, and quickly felt something strange, "There is no one living in this house, Ruan Zhen, are you sure you have found the right place?" Like a standing zombie.

Hu Xiaoming's back turned cold, and just as he was about to call someone again, Chen Han's call came in on his mobile phone, and he picked it up: "Well, um... what? Shi Yong drowned, and the time of death was between 10 and 11 o'clock last night... …okay, I get it."

He didn't hide what he said, and Ruan Zhen naturally heard it clearly. He turned around suddenly, his eyes were bloodshot, and he almost stared out of his eyes. He shouted: "He talked to me at 12 o'clock! He also asked me What's wrong! You are absolutely mistaken, mistaken!"
