Special Note:

The previous chapter was blocked. In order not to affect your reading experience, I will summarize the content of the previous chapter:
1. The main story in the last chapter is "Dead in the Sea of ​​Fire";
2. The conversation between Yan Ruyu and Zhang Chengan revealed two pieces of information: 1) Yan Ruyu and Wu Cuo’s parents were both police officers, and both died in a fire; 2) Some people did not want them to investigate the arson case;

3. There is a new case.

----------

The victim's home is located in the employee building of the steel factory.

The old building on the edge of the third ring road, the steel factory moved to the suburban industrial area more than ten years ago, but the staff building stayed here. Later, the steel factory closed down, and the residents here became laid-off workers.

Although they are laid-off workers, the residents' sense of superiority is getting stronger and stronger, and their sense of superiority comes from their own houses.In recent years, housing prices in Jingbei City have increased dozens of times. To have a 70-square-meter house on the edge of the third ring road is equivalent to sitting on 500 million yuan in cash.

Recently there have been rumors that this place is going to be demolished. When they think of the considerable amount of compensation, the old neighbors greet each other and say, "Is there any news about the demolition?"

In such a happy atmosphere, a murder happened.When Yan Ruyu and Wu Cuo arrived, the cordon outside the gate of the deceased's house was surrounded by a human wall on the third floor and the third floor, and the neighbors surrounded from the corridor on the third floor to the door of the unit on the first floor.

"Get out of the way, policeman! Everyone out there!" Wu Cuo opened the way in front, and Yan Ruyu followed closely behind, for fear that if one inadvertently fell into the sea of ​​people, he would never be able to enter the murder scene again.

After finally entering the deceased's house, Wu Cuo couldn't help but ask, "Why are there so many people around outside?"

The policeman from the local police station, who was comforting the family of the deceased in the bedroom, came over and explained: "The situation of this family is quite special. The two daughters grew up eating a lot of food, so the neighbors are naturally more concerned."

"Baijiafan?" Yan Ruyu glanced curiously at the bedroom, only to see a 12 or 3-year-old girl sitting on the edge of the bed, also looking at him timidly.

"The deceased, Li Bingxiong, was Li Li's stepfather." When talking about Li Li, the policeman glanced into the bedroom. "It's her. Li Li also has an 18-year-old sister named Li Mei. The mother of the two sisters married Li Bingxiong. He died of illness not long after. Fortunately, Li Bingxiong was good to his two stepdaughters. One of them earned money to support the family, and he didn’t even remarry these years. The neighbors knew that this family was not easy, so they often took care of them..."

Yan Ruyu interrupted: "Where is Li Mei?"

"She has been notified, she should...will come back soon."

"Should be coming back?"

The police found that Yan Ruyu squinted her eyes and looked at herself, and hurriedly said: "Well... Li Mei goes to Internet cafes every day after dropping out of school, and doesn't go home very often."

At this time, Xu Xinger's voice sounded from the kitchen: "According to the degree of rigor and corneal cloudiness, the preliminary judgment is that the deceased's death time is between 2:6 am and [-]:[-] am today. The exact time and cause of death will not be confirmed until the autopsy."

Xu Xing'er and his assistant put the body into a body bag together, and while carrying it out with great effort, they said to Wu Cuo: "The scene will be left to you."

Wu Cuo hurried forward to help, and Wu Cuo returned to the scene of the crime after the body was carried into the car.

In the narrow kitchen, the floor was almost covered with pools of blood, leaving nowhere for people to set foot. A fruit knife about 15 cm long fell into the pool of blood.

Yan Ruyu wanted to go into the kitchen to take a look, but Wu Cuo was already "struggling" in it, so he had to give up this idea temporarily.

Walk into the small bedroom where Li Li is, and look around.The little girl's gaze was always on Yan Ruyu's face, and Yan Ruyu felt uncomfortable being stared at by her, so she could only ask, "You live in this room with your sister?"

"Yes." The little girl replied.

"Two people? Only one single bed?"

Yan Ruyu doesn't know much about getting along with girls. Anyway, if he is asked to share a 1.2-meter single bed with someone, even if the other party is as beautiful as a fairy, he would rather sleep on the floor.

Before the little girl could answer, he had already opened the only wardrobe in the room that could hold things, knelt on the ground and bent over to look under the bed, and said to himself: "There is no bedding, which means it's not a floor bedding."

The mirror on the closet door happened to see Li Li, and the panic on her face could not escape Yan Ruyu's eyes.

Seeing Yan Ruyu looking at herself through the mirror, Li Li explained: "My sister's work includes accommodation, she doesn't live at home."

Yan Ruyu nodded, "You weren't at home last night, were you?"

"I stayed at my aunt's house last night. My aunt made dumplings and asked me to eat them. After eating, it was dark. It happened to be the weekend. There was no class the next day, so I stayed at my aunt's house. But when I came home this morning, But found out..."

"So you were the first to find the body?"

"Yes...a lot of blood, I saw a lot of blood..." The little girl's voice trembled uncontrollably, and Yan Ruyu returned Li Li's bedroom silently with a sorry look in her eyes.

The bedroom of the deceased Li Bingxiong looked very tidy, the door of the simple wardrobe had been dropped, the clothes inside were neatly folded, and a thin summer quilt was folded in style.My first impression: Li Bingxiong is a very self-disciplined person... maybe, a veteran?
In an old-fashioned building, the windows in each room are small, and this bedroom is the same.Perhaps because it was the only sunny room in the house, there was a simple clothesline running parallel to the window, on which hung a pair of men's dark trousers, a pair of black pantyhose, and a school jacket.

It seems that the clothes of the whole family are hanging here, and the clothes block the small windows. Even in the daytime, the light in the house is very dark.

No matter how you look at it, it should be a happy family.

But Yan Ruyu always felt that something was wrong.

He couldn't tell the reason for this feeling, maybe Li Li was too calm, maybe this family didn't even have a place for the eldest daughter to sleep, or maybe the pantyhose hanging in the man's room was too abrupt.

Soon, he discovered another unusual place.

Li Bingxiong's bed has two pillows and two quilts!

No way... Could it be...

While he was thinking, there was a knock on the door, and the policeman outside said, "Li Mei, the family member of the victim, is here."

Yan Ruyu opened the door, only to see a pretty girl standing at the door and looking in anxiously. The girl was wearing dark jeans, a light gray down jacket, and no makeup.

"Are you Li Mei?"

To be honest, it was very difficult for him to associate the girl in front of him with the troubled girl who spent all her time in Internet cafes.

"I'm."

Li Mei walked two steps into the house, but she didn't look at the blood-stained kitchen at all, but looked at the small bedroom.

Li Li threw herself into her sister's arms, and the fear that had been suppressed for several hours was released at this moment. The little girl's thin arms were trembling, and her small shoulders were trembling.Sister Li Mei seemed to be affected by her, and began to tremble all over.

"It's good that you're fine, it's good that you're fine..." Li Mei held Li Li's face in her hands and kept repeating these words.

"Ahem..." Yan Ruyu stood not far from the two of them and said, "I'm sorry, I have a few questions, just ask them as a routine."

Li Mei still hugged Li Li, and didn't even show Yan Ruyu the face, "What's the problem?"

"Where are you from 2:6 am to [-]:[-] am today?"

"You police don't look for the murderer, but come to suspect me?" Li Li finally looked at Yan Ruyu.

Yan Ruyu looked away, but her tone was firm, "As I said, it's a routine inquiry."

"I'm a cashier at an Internet cafe. I was on the night shift last night. I was in the Internet cafe from 10:10 pm to [-]:[-] this morning. You can check the monitoring. I went back to the dormitory to sleep after work in the morning. I slept so badly. You called me several times. hear..."

Yan Ruyu asked again: "What happened before 10 o'clock last night?"

"After dinner at home, go out to the Internet cafe at 9:[-]."

"Eat with your father?"

"My sister went to my aunt's house at about 7:[-]. After she left, I cooked at home. My dad was watching TV, cooking, and I went out after eating and washing the dishes... I have nothing to say Oh, my sister is terrified, how can you let her stay here? Is this a place where children should stay? If she leaves any psychological shadow, it is all because of your negligence!..."
