No.14 Disciple: Death Puzzle

Chapter 3 No. 92, Xining Road

Afternoon, two thirty.The residential area near Xining Road is in an embarrassing position. The residential area is located on a gentle slope of a mountain. The hillside is neither high nor low. Standing on a higher slope, you can't overlook the beautiful scenery of Xijing City.The buildings in the residential area are all in the same pattern, each building is square, but the arrangement is chaotic, and there are two buildings even arranged along an oblique angle.The dark building hides traces of damp and filth, and creepers climb the walls crookedly and randomly.Due to the old residential area and the door of the corridor is completely open, various small advertisements and black painted mobile phone numbers can be seen everywhere inside and outside the corridor.

In Room 92, No. 303, Xining Road, Zhuo Qingshan and her colleague You Tao are waiting for An Youlin's arrival in the living room. So far, An Youlin has been late for half an hour.

You Tao is a tall young man, with a wicked smile on his face, a bit sinister.When the bureau went to the underground casino to catch gambling last year, he was asked to play the role of a ruffian gambler.You Tao is very skilled. A strong man with a scarred face resisted arrest with a knife when the police broke in. He was knocked down with two punches, but he himself was not injured.

"Have you seen him this morning?" You Tao stood by the window and looked downstairs with his back to Zhuo Qingshan. "I've seen it," Zhuo Qingshan looked at the time on the phone, "Captain Luo suddenly asked me to find him, and said it was Director Zhao's intention." "Is he an old man?"

"He's quite young, but why did the bureau ask him for help?" "He was late for more than half an hour! But I heard rumors in the bureau that this person was involved in the Viking Square case..." You Before Tao finished speaking, he heard loud voices and footsteps coming from the corridor outside the cordoned-off door.Zhuo Qingshan and You Tao moved outside the door, the doors of the three surrounding houses were closed tightly, and the sound came from the direction of the stairs.

"Uncle Guo, listen to me, the college entrance examination is a matter of human effort! Your grandson will definitely be able to get into a good university."

I saw An Youlin walking unsteadily from the stairs to the corridor following an old man in his sixties.An Youlin was carrying a black leather bag in his hand, and his tie was pulled loose just like what Zhuo Qingshan saw this morning.

"303 is just ahead, there are already people inside." "Do you live downstairs? Tsk tsk tsk, look, I want you to send me up in person, it's too much trouble for you old man." "No trouble, no trouble." Trouble," Uncle Guo shook his head cheerfully, "this is what I should do, cooperate with your police to handle the case." "Don't, you, think highly of me," An Youlin lowered his head and whispered close to Uncle Guo , "I'm not a policeman." "Yes, yes!" Uncle Guo quickly changed his words, "Look at my memory!"

Uncle Guo sent An Youlin outside the cordon, watched An Youlin enter the door, and then turned and walked towards the stairs.An Youlin nodded to Zhuo Qingshan to indicate that he had seen her before, and turned to You Tao.

"Hello, I'm An Youlin." "You Tao." The two men shook hands.

"You two have been here for a while, don't you mind if I wander around the room?"

An Youlin didn't take it seriously that he was late for more than half an hour, You Tao thought it didn't matter, but Zhuo Qingshan couldn't bear it anymore.

"Didn't we set a time in the morning? Why are you so late?" An Youlin walked to the bedroom on the left side of the living room. He turned his back to Zhuo Qingshan and said, "Sorry, I'm a bit blind. After coming here I couldn’t find the specific location, so I went to a nearby canteen to inquire.” The bedroom has an area of ​​about seven or eight square meters, with a single bed next to the window, and light blue patterned curtains hanging on the window.There are no other furnishings in the room, no lamps, no bookshelves, not even a single extra decoration.

An Youlin wandered around in the bedroom. After observing the entire bedroom carefully, he nodded and walked out.Zhuo Qingshan and You Tao who were standing at the door of the bedroom hurried out of the way, and An Youlin suddenly noticed the existence of the two of them when they were about to bump into them.

An Youlin's sometimes serious and sometimes dazed appearance made You Tao want to laugh but didn't dare to laugh. He turned his face to look at Zhuo Qingshan, and Zhuo Qingshan shook her head helplessly.Zhuo Qingshan had great doubts about An Youlin from the bottom of her heart. She couldn't see how clever men could help them get the key evidence from the stubborn suspect.

An Youlin returned to the living room and wandered around the living room.On the wall of the living room is an inkjet simulation oil painting, which is Van Gogh's "Sunflower".Below the painting is a bookshelf painted with brown paint, which is full of world famous books.An Youlin took out a book that had almost been turned over, it was Gorky's "Childhood".

An Youlin flipped through the book casually, put the book back in its original place, and came to the narrow kitchen again.Although the kitchen has traces of being searched, it can be seen that it was very clean and tidy before the search. Although the space is narrow, there are all kitchen utensils and electrical appliances, refrigerator, microwave oven, oven, dishwasher, range hood... The layout is reasonable.

There is a square bathtub in the bathroom, and a shower curtain is hung on the side near the toilet.After the inspection, An Youlin exited the bathroom and came to the last room.The door of the room is a very particular double door, whether it is the texture or the texture of the door handle, it seems out of place with the whole house.There are four green potted plants in the four corners of the room, a long square table is leaning against the wall, and a chair is facing the wall beside the table.On the side of the table near the door, there is a small square table of the same height and covered with a light-colored tablecloth. There is a record player on it, but the record player cannot play vinyl records, but the table is made into a record player It's just the sound of the shape.

An Youlin came to the table and sat on the chair, staring carefully at the picture frame on the wall.There are more than [-] photo frames, large and small, on the wall. Not all of the photo frames are photos, but some are pictures cut from magazines.

"This place has also been searched, and there are no clues related to the case." You Tao quietly came to An Youlin's side and reminded him in a low voice.

An Youlin didn't respond, he raised his hand and shook it left and right.Zhuo Qingshan patted You Tao on the shoulder lightly, telling him not to disturb An Youlin.

An Youlin stared at the photo frame on the wall, and found that the photos or pictures were full of people, including children laughing, couples looking into the distance, and fashionable young people being photographed on the street.An Youlin looked at each photo frame carefully. He stood up from the chair and stepped back, only stopping when he reached the wall.

An Youlin stopped for a full 2 ​​minutes, then walked to the record player and flipped the switch. There was only one piece of music with poor sound quality stored in the record player.An Youlin turned the dial to control the volume, and the sound from the record player gradually became louder, and the noise of rattling rattled endlessly.An Youlin adjusted the volume again, and only then could he hear the clue from the gradually louder voice.

applause!This is the sound of clapping!On a certain occasion when the applause was crackling, someone recorded the applause with poor-quality recording equipment.

An Youlin turned off the record player, and said to You Tao who was by the door, "That... that... what's your name?"

"You Tao." "Do me a favor, take a photo of the picture on the wall and develop it."

Zhuo Qingshan reminded: "Didn't you look at it this morning? The photos on the wall have already been taken." "No, no, no," An Youlin shook his head, "Every photo frame on the wall has to be photographed individually. .”

After finishing speaking, An Youlin bypassed the two of them and walked towards the door. "By the way, there is one more thing." An Youlin stopped, "I also want a detailed map of Xijing City!"

"Where are you going?" "I'll see the suspect when things are ready."

At 10:[-] p.m., the Criminal Investigation Brigade of Xijing Public Security Bureau.Luo Gang was sitting in the office looking at the photos developed by You Tao, and the photos were turned over in his hands. At this moment, there was a knock on the office door: "Come in." Seeing Zhuo Qingshan walk in, Luo Gang Then she asked, "When will An Youlin come?" Zhuo Qingshan glanced at the clock on the wall: "I just talked to him on the phone, and he said he would be there in [-] minutes."

Luo Gang's eyes became complicated: "Where's the suspect?" "Also ready."

"Then you can make arrangements with You Tao, and let me know when An Youlin arrives." Just as Zhuo Qingshan was about to turn around and leave the office, she suddenly stopped and asked sideways: "Captain Luo, that An Youlin Is it really that powerful? Then why didn't he help us when we were looking for the suspect? We had to wait until the suspect surrendered..."

"He just returned to China not long ago." Zhuo Qingshan stood outside the office door and looked at the door at the end of the corridor. She couldn't help but recall the scene when she first saw An Youlin in the morning—that mysterious man with a slovenly appearance and a loose tie. , short disheveled hair, and his indifferent attitude towards things around him.

At [-]:[-] in the evening, An Youlin showed up at the gate of the Public Security Bureau calmly, swaying and carrying a black leather bag.Zhuo Qingshan hurriedly called You Tao who was munching on instant noodles to inform Luo Gang.

"Why are you here now?" Zhuo Qingshan said with dissatisfaction.An Youlin yawned, and scratched his hair that was a little flat when he was sleeping: "I'm really sorry, I accidentally overslept just now. When I woke up, I rushed over here immediately. You also know that this time is considered Evening rush hour."

An Youlin was not in a hurry to meet the suspect Guo Keji in the interrogation room, but came to the office of the Criminal Investigation Brigade and briefly watched all the surveillance videos of the interrogation of Guo Keji.

"Does the forensic doctor know anything about the murderer's tools?" An Youlin asked. "According to the autopsy report, the victims in these four cases were all killed by a knife about 15 cm long and 4 cm wide." "It seems that the murder weapon should be common, and many people have such knives in their kitchens." An You Lin nodded slightly, and then asked, "Is the garbage disposal site and riverside salvage work still in progress?" The location is nearby." Then, An Youlin made a request, he needed a tool that could directly contact the investigation team, and if he found a new hiding place, he would follow his orders.
