Ye family.

A family of four plus Qi Yueze sat at the table for dinner.

Mrs. Ye chatted with Ye Linyun, and Qi Yueze responded with a few words from time to time, and the remaining two men were only responsible for eating quietly.

Ye Huaishuang was a little absent-minded today, staring at the mobile phone next to her.

Father Ye was the first to notice Ye Huaishuang's abnormality, and asked, "Is there something wrong with work?"

Mrs. Ye followed suit.

Ye Huaishuang went home directly after attending the lecture in the afternoon. It is said that the past two days have not been so busy,? But after returning, she has been sitting on the sidelines in a daze.

As if waiting for something.

But he usually doesn't like to talk when he's tired when he comes back. In addition, Ye Linyun was joking with his mother, so no one bothered him.

But looking at the mobile phone at the dinner table? For someone like Ye Huaishuang who abides by the rules, it is a bit abnormal.

Ye Huaishuang took a while to recover.

"Huh?" He looked up at his father in confusion, "What?"

He didn't hear what the other party just said.

Father Ye repeated: "Are you in trouble at work?"

Ye Huaishuang shook his head: "No,? Everything has been going well recently."

But apart from work, what else could make him so distracted?

Madam Ye's expression became subtle, and she asked abruptly, "Who are you waiting for?"

"A friend." Ye Huaishuang didn't hide anything. "I've been dealing with a case for the past two days. I haven't heard from you yet. I'm a little worried."

"Another homicide?"

"Ah."

"..." It turned out to be the police.

Mrs. Ye was suddenly bored. She knew that her eldest son had been cooperating with the police and knew quite a few policemen. He would occasionally follow him to the scene.

There have been a lot of homicides recently. The heinous suspects are indeed dangerous. It is human nature to worry about friends.

And Ye Huaishuang's attitude is so frank, it doesn't look like there is a ghost in his heart at all.

I'm looking forward to it.

Sure enough, you can't expect this wooden head to suddenly awaken any love cell.

The others didn't think about it any further, the topic of the murder case was endless.

Ye Huaishuang didn't explain too much, but subconsciously lowered her head and glanced at the phone again.

The screen is still dark, and there is no new message reply.

Before he came back, he asked where Lin Jianqiu was. He intended to take him home on the way, but Lin Jianqiu hurriedly replied "I'm busy" and never heard back.

Lin Jianqiu is an adult, and theoretically there is no need for others to worry about it.

But Ye Huaishuang just couldn't help feeling flustered.

It originated from an inexplicable intuition, and it was also based on a superficial impression of Lin Jianqiu.

Ye Huaishuang was still deeply impressed by Lin Jianqiu's expression when he mentioned the suspect even after meeting him only once or twice.

Lin Jianqiu has an inexplicable attachment to those things, even more than money.

Looking at the idle person, it seems that he is careless about everything, and it is based on this that in order to achieve his goal, no one will be surprised by what he does.

"Om-"

The phone suddenly vibrated.

Ye Huaishuang picked up the phone and glanced at it, and couldn't help but pause slightly.

Before anyone could ask, Ye Huaishuang put down her chopsticks, stood up with her mobile phone, and pushed the stool back.

"I have something to go out - I'll go straight back to the dormitory at night."

Ye Huaishuang picked up her coat and hurried out the door.

A few people were left looking at each other at the dining table.

"What's going on here?"

"Did you find someone?"

"Impossible, does he have that string in his head? He doesn't work all day long."

Mrs. Ye said that she hated iron but steel: "I asked him to go on a blind date, but he would rather go to the scene of the crime. You say he is a researcher, what does he go to do in those places, isn't it just to meet a girl, who can be more beautiful than a dead person?" Is it scary?"

Ye Linyun interjected, "That might be true."

After all, it takes a lot of time and energy to spend a lot of time and energy in a regular romantic relationship, and Ye Huaishuang's brain structure is different from ordinary people. Even if it is just a blind date, it is unnecessary trouble for him, and he should be kept at a respectful distance. "For him, dating, falling in love and getting married can't make any contribution to society, and it's a waste of time. With this energy, I think he would rather not work and help the police catch thieves."

"..." Mrs. Ye choked up.

She couldn't refute that at all.

Obviously their family relationship is quite harmonious, and it will not cause any psychological shadow to the children.

Younger brother Ye Linyun has a rich private life, but being an older brother is just another extreme, as if he is determined to stay in love with work for the rest of his life.

Mrs. Ye glared at her youngest son: "Linyun, you usually don't know how to care about your brother when you are free."

Ye Linyun nodded perfunctorily while picking up food for Qi Yueze: "Okay, okay, I will study his preferences later, introduce more girls to him, and the men will help him look at them, but let's make it clear that if he doesn't like them , then I have nothing to do."

Madam Ye sighed: "As long as I can find someone to accompany him, I will recognize even a man."

It's better than being alone for the rest of your life, don't make troubles by yourself.

What's more, there is a precedent in the family anyway.

Qi Yueze's face froze slightly, but he lowered his head and no one noticed.

Kaiyun community, in the building where the incident occurred.

Lin Jianqiu and Officer Gao stood on the fourth floor, and behind them stood two other policemen in charge of collecting evidence, looking at the wooden cabinet door at the corner, unable to hide their surprised expressions.

The light white wooden door is completely embedded in the wall, almost blending with the wall when it is not opened.

This was originally used to hide the main water valve. Occasionally, some residents developed the function of a small utility room, and put some light and small items that are not commonly used, and it is a pity to lose them.

At this moment, behind the wooden door, a little red can be seen behind a few white empty boxes.

Someone stuffed blood-stained rubber gloves into the gap in the box.

Appearing in such a place is likely to be one of the props used by the murderer to commit crimes.

The police who collected the evidence immediately showed a look of joy, which meant a new breakthrough.

But the smile on one of the faces gradually stiffened.

He turned his head and glanced at the locked gate below: "That doesn't mean, it's very likely that this family is really—"

Not long ago, they scoffed at Lin Jianqiu's conjecture, and some even thought that he deliberately messed up the way of handling the case, and almost quarreled in public.

They are still focusing their investigation on the two women on the seventh and fifth floors.

Juvenile delinquency is not terribly rare, but it's not the norm either.

What's more, according to the results of the investigation, the two of them did not have any obvious disputes.

Until the "evidence" is in front of you.

This place is the closest to the fourth floor, and there are only Xu Ying's family on the fourth floor. Even if the murderer wanted to set the blame on others, he wouldn't be able to set his mind on Xu Ying's family.

They seem to have nothing to do with Mr. Dai's family.

More and stronger evidence is needed, but this discovery alone is enough to subtly reverse the direction of their investigation.

They began to seriously consider the possibility of juvenile delinquency due to psychological distortions.

"Hurry up and take this back for inspection."

They came back to their senses, and after taking the photos, they carefully put the gloves into the evidence bag. Whether they were props used to commit crimes or whether there were new clues, they had to go back and continue to check to know.

"Is this the only one?" They rummaged through the back of the empty box, but found nothing else. "It would be great if we could find the clothes, and we can collect more samples."

Even if the sample is damaged by rain, the shape and age range of the murderer can be roughly determined just by looking at the shape.

But unfortunately, neither in the grass downstairs nor in the surrounding trash cans, there are no bloody clothes.

Not even a single piece of discarded clothing can be seen.

It may have been deliberately hidden somewhere by the murderer, but they did not give up looking for it.

"I hope the murderer hasn't dealt with it yet." The police officer who collected the evidence frowned, but his heart was not optimistic.

The more time passed, the more leeway was left for the murderer.

"No." Lin Jianqiu said.

He spoke with certainty, and although the policeman next to him had changed his opinion slightly, he still had some instinctive doubts, and couldn't help asking: "Why not?"

Lin Jianqiu replied: "If it is really Xu Ying, he will stay.

Officer Gao: "As a souvenir?"

Lin Jianqiu: "Maybe it's a bargaining chip. If you treat this kind of thing as a game, the evidence is the game reminder. Although you may not be able to find it, it is not a complete game without the reminder."

Officer Gao glanced at the wooden cabinet door in front of him: "This one too?"

While it's easy to miss, it's not a place that's completely impossible to find.

Looking back, I checked and fumbled up and down the whole building several times, and I could always find it.

But it might take a little longer.

He could have thrown it out while the police were not paying attention, and even hiding it in some corner of the house was more concealed and safer than throwing it in a wooden cabinet.

"Put it in this kind of place, either it means that he doesn't care about being found by you for evidence, or...he despises you."

"It's like that kind of superior top student mentality-you can't find my prompts in such an obvious place, what a bunch of rubbish."

The policeman next to him frowned: "Isn't that just crazy?"

Lin Jianqiu raised the corners of his mouth, and his smile was a little cold: "Don't you think he is not?"

Whether it is Xu Ying or not.

It is already a fact that the murderer is inhumane.

As for Xu Ying, maybe he should add the label of self-righteousness.

The sky is dark.

Officer Gao looked at the time and reminded Lin Jianqiu that it was time to go back.

They said goodbye at the gate of the community, turned around and walked in different directions.

There were no buses near this point, and there was no taxi on the roadside. Lin Jianqiu waited for a while, and finally turned around and walked back on foot first.

The ground was muddy, Lin Jianqiu turned into an alley, ready to take a shortcut back.

"Pa-ta, pa-ta—"

The sound of slightly wet footsteps echoed in the alley.

Lin Jianqiu lowered his head and thought about the case. The street lights in the alley were very dim, and they could only cast a few vague and vague shadows when they fell on the ground.

The shadow gradually deepened.

Another shadow overlapped behind him.

Officer Gao heard a whistle.

When I turned my head to look, I saw a private car slowly parked on the side of the road, the window was lowered, revealing Ye Huaishuang's face.

"Ms. Ye?" Officer Gao was a little surprised, "It's so late, why are you here?"

Ye Huaishuang frowned slightly, and interrupted him: "Where is Lin Jianqiu?"
