chasing the dark

Chapter 35 Not an Informant
Jiang Yu bit her lip, which was her habitual action when she was thinking.

"Those two young people are not kind at first glance. If the old man is the dead, why should he follow them? Did they know each other from the beginning, or did something happen between them?"

"There is a possibility of knowing each other. The old man went there just to find one of these two boys. The other possibility is that they didn't know each other, met by chance, and had a dispute." Then Ye Zhanzhou added, "I compare Leaning towards the latter."

Jiang Yu followed this line of thought and said, "Because the problem was not resolved, the old man continued to follow them. That Cun Tou became furious and hit the old man with a stone or something."

"That's not necessarily the case, it might be that chicken nest head who did it." Ye Zhanzhou said.

Jiang Yu: "That's called fireworks."

Ye Zhanzhou didn't take it seriously: "How can it be like fireworks? No one likes to watch the fireworks like that."

...Well, there's no need to discuss hairstyles with such a rough person.

"You and Ding Xuan went to Lao Pu's?"

"That's right, he was the one who found the sixth child."

"Old Pu is your informant, right?" Jiang Yu lowered his voice and asked.

"It's time to fix your brain." Ye Zhanzhou chuckled, "I often go to Lao Pu's place to inquire about news, but it is definitely not the relationship between the police and the informant as you imagined."

After a short pause, he said again: "All the guys in Lao Pu's shop are his inmates."

As soon as he said that, Jiang Yu understood.

She has stayed in the detention center, and she can somewhat understand what it is like to live there.

No freedom, far away from family, always under control... In this case, it is often necessary to comfort each other to get by.

Over time, I will naturally make some friends, and after I get out of prison, I often keep in touch.

And these people originally come from all levels of society, relying on their network to inquire about news is also a convenient way.

But the guys in Lao Pu's shop are all people who have been in prison, which is a bit unexpected.

So Jiang Yu said: "The old charcoal-burning man speaks a bit like someone from inside, the waiter... can't tell."

She remembered that when Ye Zhanzhou gave him cigarettes, the old man said "Thank you Officer Ye for enjoying the cigarettes".

I thought it was a joke at the time, but now that I think about it, it might be out of habit.

"The old man is a murderer, and his wife was murdered by a man from the same village and committed suicide. In a rage, he chopped the man down with a hatchet. He stayed in there for more than 20 years and only came out last year."

Ye Zhanzhou turned the steering wheel, turned a corner at the intersection, and continued: "That guy's brain is not very good. I opened a small grain and oil store to help, and lived in the store at night."

"Once there was a movement in the middle of the night, he went out to look, and saw a man standing next to the store door with his face facing the wall. Someone else would definitely ask first, but he was lucky, thinking it was a thief, he touched a stick behind the door, Came right away."

"It's also a coincidence that he broke his spine and was sentenced to three and a half years in prison. After he came out, his parents wouldn't let him go home, so he went to Lao Pu's."

Jiang Yu asked, "Is that man a thief?"

Although the thief is also legally responsible for injuring the thief, the punishment is often given a lighter or mitigated punishment.

"What kind of thief!" Ye Zhanzhou chuckled, "It's just that he drank too much and couldn't find a toilet, so he borrowed the wall of his house for convenience."

Suddenly realizing that it's not polite to say such a thing in front of a little girl, he immediately stopped laughing.

Jiang Yu rolled his eyes: "You men are uncivilized, like puppies, leaving marks everywhere."

"Eh? What do you call us men?" Ye Zhanzhou raised his thick eyebrows.

Jiang Yu blurted out: "Do you dare to say that you have never done such a thing?"

Ye Zhanzhou touched his nose unnaturally, he really did it before.

But...he glanced at the little girl on the co-pilot: "You said you are a girl, and you discuss how convenient it is for men in the middle of the night..."

Jiang Yu also felt a little embarrassed, so he interrupted him directly: "Who wants to discuss this issue, were you talking about the case?"

Ye Zhanzhou didn't bother with her, and asked, "Where did it go?"

Jiang Yu bit his lips: "It seems that why the old man followed those two young men, no...it seems wrong who moved his hands..."

"Both of them have the possibility of committing the crime. Of course, it is not ruled out that they separated later, and the murderer is someone else. Don't guess here, the most urgent thing is to find the two boys."

The black off-road vehicle arrived at the police gate, scanned the license plate, and raised the access control lever.

Ye Zhanzhou drove the car into the school gate, and asked, "Tomorrow, I will go to Yingcai School, do you want to go together?"

"Okay!" Jiang Yu hesitated after finishing speaking, "But I haven't finished watching the monitoring yet."

"Let Ding Xuan continue watching." Ye Zhanzhou said.

Jiang Yu showed a big smile: "Then thank you, Deputy Team Ye."

She was really happy that she could no longer watch those boring surveillance.

The campus was very quiet at night, Ye Zhanzhou drove the car directly to the graduate student apartment.

"Tomorrow at eight o'clock in the morning, the parking lot behind Lao Duan's office, there is no time to wait."

"Okay!" Jiang Yu got out of the car happily, turned around and said before closing the door, "Drive slowly on the road, see you tomorrow, Deputy Team Ye."

Seeing the cheerful back of the little girl, Ye Zhanzhou's lips twitched unconsciously.

Before entering the building, Jiang Yu turned around again and waved his hand before walking in.

……

Although Mingyang in June has already entered summer, it is relatively cool in the morning and evening.

Xu Luoqiu stayed in bed as usual, and didn't get up reluctantly until Jiang Yu brought his breakfast back.

"Wow! Xiao Yu'er, you must be participating in the Mark Six lottery, right? How did you buy so much breakfast?"

"If I really bought the Mark Six lottery, I'm afraid I won't be able to eat breakfast." Jiang Yu handed her one of the bags, "This is yours, don't worry about anything else."

Xu Luoqiu inserted the straw into the soya-bean milk cup, and asked while sucking: "Really, do you have a dog outside? Is it a senior or a junior?"

"It's an uncle, I don't know whose dog it is." Jiang Yu took a change of clothes and went into the bathroom.

As soon as the door was closed, Xu Luoqiu shouted outside: "Xiao Yu'er, you can't be the third party!"

Jiang Yu ignored her and simply took a shower.

After putting on his clothes and coming out, he saw Xu Luoqiu's face full of sorrow and sorrow: "Xiao Yu'er, let me tell you, no matter how nice the other party is, it belongs to someone else, and we can't touch it."

"It's time for you to refresh your mind." Jiang Yu gave her what he learned from Ye Zhanzhou, "Going out with our deputy team today, and bringing a breakfast by the way, isn't it too much?"

"Oh, so it's to flatter the leader." Xu Luoqiu heaved a sigh of relief.

Jiang Yu asked: "Aren't you going to interview in the morning, do you want to take a ride?"

Xu Luoqiu shook his head like a rattle: "Forget it, I don't want to know your deputy team."
