Mystery Tracker 2

Chapter 44 Children

The investigation and evidence collection work on the scene was not completed until after two o'clock in the afternoon. Shen Yan asked others to go back to the police station first, while he and Cheng Jinsong drove to the police station where Sun Yujie was.Officer Deng, who was in charge of civil affairs, couldn't help sighing when he heard the situation introduced by the two.

"We have called his mother many times in the past few days, and he has gone to his house many times, but we can't find anyone. I also said that no matter how cruel this mother is, it won't be so many days. Come back, I didn't expect something to happen..."

"How is the kid these days?"

"That child is quite obedient and doesn't make trouble. He stays where we let him stay. But you also know that our place is not a place for children at all. We have thought about changing the place for the child, but we are afraid of his mother. return……"

"Does this child have any other relatives?"

"No." Officer Deng shook his head. "We asked, and the child only knows his mother. He has never seen his father since he was a child, and he doesn't know who his father is. Our colleagues in charge of household registration also helped to check. As a result of this investigation, it was discovered that, not to mention the child's father, this child cannot be found in the household registration system now..."

"Can't find it?!" Shen Yan was taken aback, "This child hasn't registered yet?!"

"Isn't that right, you said how out of tune this mother is? According to this child, as long as he can remember, his mother locked him in the house and dropped a piece of bread and a bottle of water, which is considered a day's ration I don’t care about food and clothing. If the child does something wrong, he will be slapped twice. I think this child is scared of being beaten by his mother. I may not be kind when I say this, but I really think this child is better than a mother without a mother. Follow such a strong mother..."

While talking, Xiao Yujie has been brought over.When seeing Cheng and Chen, the little guy's originally calm face showed a trace of joy, which made Cheng and Chen feel even more uncomfortable.

"Xiaojie," Cheng Jinsong knelt down and said softly, "The uncles are here this time to ask you a few questions about your mother. Just tell us what you know, okay?"

Hearing that Cheng Jinsong was asking about his mother's situation, Sun Yujie was taken aback for a while, and then grabbed his skirt with his small hands, obviously a little nervous.Seeing this, Cheng Jinsong comforted: "Don't be afraid, the uncles just want to help you find your mother, do you miss your mother?"

Hearing Cheng Jinsong's question, Sun Yujie hesitated for a moment, then nodded timidly.

"Well, that's good. In this case, you tell us what you know, so that we can help you find your mother quickly, okay?"

Nodded again.

"Good." Cheng Jinsong touched Sun Yujie's forehead, then nodded to Shen Yan.

Shen Yan asked: "Xiaojie, uncle asked you, before your mother left a few days ago, did she tell you where she went?"

Sun Yujie thought for a while and shook his head.

"And before that? On the day she left home, what did she say she was going to do?"

"Mom said to earn money..."

"Where do you make money?"

The little guy shook his head again.

Seeing that the child didn't know, Shen Yan thought about it and changed the angle: "Does your mother have any good friends? For example, who does she often call?"

Xiao Yujie thought for a while, then whispered: "There is Aunt Juanjuan..."

"Juanjuan?" Shen seriously replied, and asked, "Do you know Aunt Juanjuan's full name?"

Still shaking his head.

Shen Yan kept this information in his mind, and then continued to ask: "Then besides Aunt Juanjuan, are there any other aunts?"

Hearing this question, Xiao Yujie half-raised his neck and remembered.Shen Yan was about to wait for his answer, but at this moment, there was a loud noise outside.

"Why hasn't the mother come back?! It's been a few days?!" A woman's voice like a broken gong came from outside the door, "My house was burned like that, what's wrong with me asking my mother to pay for it?"

"It's not that you're wrong, it's just that this child doesn't know..."

"He doesn't know?! That's his mother, he doesn't know? I can't find his mother now, so what can I do if I ask him?!..."

Thanks to the woman's loud voice, even through the door, several people in the room could hear the conversation clearly.When Xiao Yujie heard the voice, his body trembled suddenly, and he grabbed Shen Yan who was talking to him, with a nervous and frightened expression on his face.Seeing this, Shen Yan frowned, and he looked at Police Officer Deng: "Are you here to find Sun Yulian?"

"Well, it's the woman upstairs in his house, who has been here three or four times. We told her that we couldn't find anyone, and it was useless to ask the child. She just didn't listen. The last time the child was scared to cry... ..."

Shen Yan thought of the fat woman he had seen downstairs on the day of the fire, and his expression became even more displeased.He looked at the trembling child, then at Cheng Jinsong, who understood what he meant and nodded to him.

Shen Yan stood up and said to Officer Deng, "Let's go out and have a look."

After handing over the child to Police Officer Deng, Shen Yan and Cheng Jinsong walked out of the room.As soon as they left the room, they saw a fat woman standing in the corridor and yelling loudly. It was the neighbor they had seen arguing with Sun Yulian at the scene of the fire before.Shen Yan walked over and said, "Are you Sun Yulian's neighbor?"

The fat woman probably didn't remember Shen Yan anymore, seeing him coming out of the house, she just assumed that he was also a policeman from the police station, and continued to yell: "You don't need to ask any more, I have told you how many times, my house was burned down It's not decent, it's my legitimate right to seek compensation from his mother, and you police have no right to stop it!"

"Aren't you looking for Sun Yulian? I can tell you that she is dead."

"Dead?" The fat woman sneered, "How can it be such a coincidence that she died just after her son burned down my house? Why don't I believe it?"

"The body was only discovered in the morning, and it has been dead for a while. We came here to understand the case."

Hearing what Shen Yan said, the fat woman's disdainful expression disappeared a bit. She looked at Shen Yan and asked hesitantly, "You..."

"We are from the criminal investigation team of the Municipal Public Security Bureau."

Seeing Shen Yan's serious expression, the fat woman realized that he was not joking, so she asked in disbelief, "Then you mean...she...is really dead?"

"I have photos taken at the scene of the crime here. If you are not afraid of the bloody scene, I can let you see it."

"Ah, no, no, no!" The fat woman waved her hand quickly, rejecting it repeatedly.

"But you came just in time, and I happen to have some questions for you."

"Me? I'm not familiar with her, I don't know anything..."

"I heard you quarrel with her on the day of the fire. Don't you know her well?"

"What do I call familiar!" It wasn't until this time that the fat woman remembered who Cheng and Chen were, and said quickly: "Comrade policeman, I just see her dressed like that all day long, and I don't think she is a good person. I don't know anything else!..."

"Do you dare to guess that she is a prostitute just by her clothes?"

"I've heard her talking on the phone with other people, and you can hear the things she said. And she always dresses flirtatiously, and she always talks like that when talking to men. Many of us say She's a sell..."

Shen Yan asked a few more questions about Sun Yulian, and seeing that the fat woman really didn't know much, he nodded: "Okay. Let's do this first, and we may ask you for some information later."

"Comrade policeman, if this woman is dead, who will pay for my family's money?..."

"If she has an inheritance, you can apply to the court to use her inheritance to pay compensation." Cheng Jinsong explained, "But these will wait until we solve the case and liquidate her estate."

"What? I still have to go to the court?" The fat woman muttered, "Why is it so troublesome..."

Shen Yan didn't pay attention to the woman's complaint, but said seriously: "You know the situation now, don't ask her son again in the future, the child is still young, I can't help you being so scared, understand?"

"Comrade police, do you think I think so? My house was completely burned down, who should I ask for an argument?" The fat woman sighed with a bitter face, "It's good this time, she's still dead, so I'm in trouble." Moldy..."

Ignoring the woman's complaints, Cheng and Chen returned to the house.Seeing Officer Deng coming to greet her, Shen Yan said, "I've already made it clear to her that she probably won't come again."

Hearing what Shen Yan said, Officer Deng was visibly relieved.Xiao Yujie seemed to understand Shen Yan's meaning, and his little face was no longer tense as before.Shen Yan lowered his head and patted Xiao Yujie's head lovingly.

Seeing that the work here is basically done, Shen Yan and Cheng Jinsong are also ready to leave.However, to everyone's surprise, at this moment, Xiao Yujie, who has always been obedient, grabbed Shen Yan's clothes and refused to let go no matter what.Shen Yan was puzzled, so he knelt down and asked a few words, but the little guy didn't speak, he just held onto Shen Yan's clothes and didn't let go.Shen Yan was at a loss.

It was Cheng Jinsong who reacted first.He asked: "Xiaojie, you are pulling Uncle Shen, do you not want him to go?"

Hearing this sentence, Xiao Yujie's eyes suddenly overflowed with tears.He looked at Shen Yan and said, "My mother doesn't want me anymore... Those aunts say my mother is a bad person... I'm afraid..."

Big teardrops rolled down from Sun Yujie's eyes.The grievances and fears of the past few days have long exceeded the limit that a child can bear.At this moment, facing Shen Yan who had helped him many times, Xiao Yujie seemed to have finally found someone to confide in, and burst into tears.Shen Yan didn't expect the child to be like this, so he quickly hugged the child to start coaxing, Officer Deng also wanted to come over to help, but the little guy just hugged Shen Yan and didn't let go, which made both of them quite embarrassed.The three of them were in a hurry for a while, and then they persuaded the child better.

"Uncle..." Xiao Yujie put his arms around Shen Yan's neck, sobbing and said, "You...don't leave, okay?..."

"Xiaojie is good. Uncle still has work... In this way, Uncle promises you that he will come to accompany you as soon as Uncle finishes his work, okay?"

"Then... when are you coming?..."

"This..." Shen Yan didn't know how to answer, but Cheng Jinsong reacted quickly and quickly said, "Xiaojie, Uncle Shen will come over as soon as he finishes his work. Even if he can't come over these two days, he will call you every day, OK?"

"Really?" Xiao Yujie looked at Shen Yan.

"Really." Shen Yan nodded quickly.

"Hook?..." The child stretched out his little hand.

"Pull the hook." Shen Yan also stretched out his hand.

The big and small hands hooked together.

"Oh, I've worked hard for you just now..." Coming out of the room, Police Officer Deng wiped the sweat from his forehead, and smiled apologetically at Cheng and Chen, "I really didn't expect this child to be so frightened, it seems that we still didn't take care of him." Well he..."

"Don't say that, you have worked hard to take care of this child for so many days." Shen Yan said sincerely.

"Speaking of which, Officer Deng," Cheng Jinsong said, "Next, what are you going to do with this child?"

"I guess I have to send him to an orphanage..." Officer Deng sighed, "This child has no relatives, so sending him to an orphanage should be the best way. With his conditions, someone should be willing to adopt him. I think Contact several orphanages in our city in two days to see where he is sent..."

Cheng Chen looked at each other and knew in his heart that this was the best way at present.Shen Yan said: "If anyone needs our help, just ask."

"Ok."

After leaving the contact information for Officer Deng, the two left the police station.Back in the car, Cheng Jinsong didn't rush to get on the car, but looked at Shen Yan instead.

"What's the matter?" Shen Yan fastened his seat belt, looked up and saw Cheng Jinsong watching him not moving, and couldn't help asking: "What do you think I am doing?"

"Captain Shen, you are quite charming! From old ladies to children, you can kill everyone." Cheng Jinsong frowned.

"Come on you," Shen Yan couldn't help laughing at him, and then his expression turned into pity, "This child is too pitiful, no one has ever really cared about him. I helped him once, and he treated me as a relative... ..."

The smile on Cheng Jinsong's face gradually disappeared: "I hope a good family will adopt him in the future."

"I hope so..." Shen Yan sighed, and then said to Cheng Jinsong: "Remember to remind me, when we finish our work, we must come and see this child again."

"it is good."

The two drove back to the police station, Cheng Jinsong went back to the forensic team to deal with the evidence, and Shen Yan also returned to the serious crime team's office.As soon as he walked into the house, he saw several other people gathered together, as if they were studying the case.Shen Yan walked over and asked: "How is it, what did you find?"

"Boss, are you back?" Several people greeted Shen Yan, Fang Liyuan asked: "How is that kid?"

"Sun Yujie doesn't know much. He only remembers that her mother has a good relationship with a person named Juanjuan. He doesn't know anything else."

Several people nodded, not surprised by such a result.

"Okay, let's investigate her situation later. Come on, tell me what you found? Have you figured out the identity of the dead man?"

"Not yet." Qin Kai said, "There is nothing on the dead man's body that can prove his identity. We have sent the photos to various sub-bureaus, but we haven't received a reply yet."

"Where's the car?"

"I'm still investigating. The suspect really knows cars. Before abandoning the car, he scratched the identification numbers on the frame and engine. He obviously didn't want us to find out who owned the car. But Jiayu said , They can recover the number, but it will take some time. Once we know the identification number of the car, we can find out who the owner is. I suspect that the car may belong to the suspect."

"Remember to take a look when it is found out." Shen Yan said, "Other than that, is there any progress?"

"We were just discussing how that car got into the recycling plant," Fang Liyuan said. "It couldn't have appeared there out of thin air, either it wasn't registered when it went in, or the suspect drove in secretly when no one was around."

"I think it's more likely to drive in secretly," Jiang Li said, "The vehicles here are all transported from several recycling points in the city. The vehicles have to undergo a preliminary inspection at the recycling point, and they have to be registered at the processing plant. , there are too many intermediate processes, and if there is a problem, it is easy to show the flaws, so it is relatively safe to sneak in."

"It's not a good idea to tell me to sneak in." Cheng Haiyang said, "Isn't the forensic evidence confirmed that the door lock was not pried open, but opened with a key? This means that the person who abandoned the corpse must be People inside this factory. You said that he abandoned the body and threw it at his work place, isn't that waiting to be found out?!"

"It's not necessarily true." Qin Kai said. "I asked those workers, and they said that they transported dozens or even hundreds of cars in a day. It may take several days for these cars to be processed. If the trunk of the car hadn't been opened today , the car was also piled up, so the body may not be found for several days."

"And if it's left there for a few days," Jiang Li said, "at the current temperature, the body will rot badly, and there will be much less evidence. This is probably the murderer's purpose of abandoning the body there."

"Hmph, luckily, the corpse jumped out by itself." Cheng Haiyang said, "The murderer was clever this time, but he was mistaken by his cleverness."

"Hey, if we judge it like this, then the gatekeeper Xu Leyou might have something wrong?" Qin Kai said, "He is on the night shift. If there is a car going in at night, it is impossible for him not to know!"

"That's right," Shen Yan said, "So you see, Chang Luqing asked him several times today if he had seen anything."

"Really..." Qin Kai reacted, "It seems that the policeman surnamed Chang really didn't work for nothing, and it was immediately obvious who had a problem..."

"He is the manager, so he must know more about his employees than we do. But judging by his reaction, this Xu Leyou may have a problem." Shen Yan turned to look at Jiang Li: "Jiang Li, I will leave this matter to you, check Find out who Xu Leyou is, and find out who in the recycling plant has access to the key."

"Yes."

"Hang Hai, keep chasing the car. If we know where the car is, we may be able to track down the murderer."

"clear."

"Qin Kai, you are in charge of the male deceased, find out who he is, what he did before he died, and who has conflicts with the recycling plant."

"Yes."

"As for the dead woman, Li Yuan will be responsible. I'll tell you some of the things I just asked, and then you can continue to investigate."

"it is good."

"Okay, then everyone will split up and report any discoveries in time."

"Yes!"

Several people took the task and went about their business.Shen Yan looked at the photos of the crime scene displayed on the computer, and frowned deeply...
