Li Zan and Chen Jie returned to Lane 11, while Ji Chengling was responsible for escorting Lu Xinda back to the police station. The two parties temporarily parted ways.

On the way, Li Zan asked as he walked: "Tell me about the deceased's personality, popularity and interpersonal relationships."

Chen Jie quickly followed Li Zan's rhythm: "The deceased was outgoing, very popular, had many friends, and had a wide network of people. Because she was the team leader of the nightclub and was responsible for accompanying the drinks... literally accompanying the drinks. At the wine table

I know a lot of people online, and I heard from her colleagues that they are basically bosses who spend a lot of money."

"sociable?"

Li Zan slowed down his pace so that Chen Jie would not be too tired to follow him. He turned his face slightly, looking straight ahead but making a gesture of listening.

Chen Jie: "No one can say anything bad."

Li Zan smiled and said, "Who dares to say bad things at this time?" He changed the topic and asked, "Are there any emotional disputes?"

Chen Jie nodded and used an implicit word to describe it: "Rich. Xiao Hua is good-looking, has a lively personality, and has no shortage of admirers. She worked in the nightclub in Jinyuan Plaza for a year and had three men.

My friends, the latest one broke up two months ago." After a few seconds, she added: "We broke up peacefully, without any disputes."

Li Zan walked to the entrance of Building 7 in Lane 11 in silence and glanced at the wonton shop opposite. There was no one else in the shop except the proprietress.

He turned back as if nothing had happened, walked up the stairs, and asked an irrelevant question: "How much is the monthly salary for the nightclub area foreman and group leader?"

"ah?"

Chen Jie has no criminal investigation experience. The anti-pornography experience accumulated in the past few years and the knowledge learned in the police academy must be thrown away in the direction of criminal investigation.

Her investigative and interrogation methods were so mediocre that she couldn't solve an overly complicated case, so she didn't think about the connection between the nightclub staff's monthly salary and the case.

At this time, she was a little confused, but fortunately she remembered that Ji Chengling had asked similar questions.

"The regional foreman's monthly basic salary + commission is about 15,000, and the team leader's basic salary + liquor commission is about 9,000 to 12,000."

"so tall?"

"A leader in the industry and in peak season. Under normal circumstances, the monthly salary is basically around 5,000 to 6,000."

Li Zan understood, stopped on the ninth floor, and knocked on Room 901, where the deceased had lived.

A middle-aged woman came to open the door. She was a kitchen helper in the nightclub and was responsible for the hygiene in the store. Her name was Sister Lian.

Sister Lian: "Who are you?"

Li Zan took out his ID: "Interpol."

Sister Lian was both frightened and confused: "What happened? I didn't commit any crime, comrade policeman."

Sister Lian didn't go to work until six o'clock in the afternoon, so she didn't know about the police going to the store to investigate.

Chen Jie explained the matter briefly, but Sister Lian couldn't believe it and even said "impossible".

"I heard yesterday that a corpse was found in the old well in Jiuxiang. I thought it was unreal, but it turned out that the person who died was that girl Xiao Hua?! This... sinful, wicked, and cruel thing." Sister Lian lamented pitifully.

He did not hide his worry and curiosity: "Comrade police, will this murderer come out to harm others? Who did Xiao Hua let to be killed?"

Chen Jie dismissed Sister Lian's curiosity by simply saying, "The case is confidential and will not be disclosed to the public for the time being."

Li Zan never worried about appeasing the masses, so when he saw that Chen Jie could handle it, he took the initiative to go inside.

This house has three bedrooms and one living room. There are three iron beds with bunk beds in the master bedroom, and two iron beds with bunk beds in each of the two secondary bedrooms. Wardrobes and desktops fill the free space in the house. There are even two iron beds in the open space of the living room.

, suitcases and various sundries were piled in the corner, making it cramped and cramped.

Most company employee dormitories are cramped and crowded, and this one is one of the typical examples.

Li Zan checked the master bedroom and a secondary bedroom. He only glanced at the door and immediately closed it. He unscrewed the door of the last secondary bedroom and walked in.

Chen Jie followed in: "Which one is Xiao Hua's bed?"

Li Zan stopped on the lower bunk of the iron bed by the window. He didn't reply and concentrated on looking for clues.

The lower bunk of the iron bed by the window is covered with a yellow goose down blanket and a neatly folded quilt. There are pink dolls next to the pillows. Photos and a dozen photo stickers are posted on the wall. No one is sleeping on the upper bunk, and there are two large suitcases and

Seven to eight bags.

Pink, tender, clean and tidy, a girl's bed.

Chen Jie: "Exquisite woman."

Li Zan took photos of the wall, the deceased's bed, upper bunk, wardrobe, and the table next to her bedside. Then he clicked on the gallery and looked through them one by one, making sure that nothing was missing before leaving the second bedroom.

After hearing Chen Jie's comments, Li Zan asked casually: "Aren't all you girls like this?"

Chen Jie paused: "For me, one bed and one quilt are enough."

She doesn't deserve the word "exquisite woman".

Li Zan went to the living room and asked Sister Lian: "The deceased has been missing for four days, has any of you ever thought about calling the police?"

Sister Lian: "Xiao Hua doesn't live in the dormitory very often. She always lives with the men outside. Different men will change with each other every once in a while, saying they are friends. After talking with each other, they will rent a better house in the community outside.

She lives outside. But her monthly utility bills are paid on time."

Li Zan: "She should go back to the dormitory more often recently."

"That's true." Sister Lian said: "I heard that the friend I was talking about broke up again and was kicked out. So women can't rely on men, they are unreliable."

She was ready to describe more about the embarrassing scene in which Xiao Hua was kicked out of the house by a man, with her face shining with sympathy and the "insights and insights" of hindsight.

Falling out? Not a peaceful breakup?

Li Zan put his hands in his pockets and showed no expression. Chen Jie showed a slightly surprised look, but she couldn't hide it.

Li Zan stared at the railing of the balcony, where a thick bush of green radish hung, occupying a corner of the balcony. He asked in a low voice: "Xiao Hua may be living outside when she didn't go back to the dormitory, so don't you think it's strange that she didn't go to work?

"

Sister Lian hesitated for a moment, thinking that everyone would be dead anyway, so she simply said: "She is actually often absent from work, and the foreman turns a blind eye to her."

After listening to her explanation, Li Zan opened the balcony door and took a picture of the hand-held cross-body bag under the thick green radish bush.

Sister Lian stretched her neck and said in surprise: "That's Xiao Hua's bag!"

Chen Jie also came over to take a look. When she saw the nameplate on the bag, she couldn't help but gasped and said what she felt from the bottom of her heart: "My dear. Famous brand! The latest model!"

Poor women also want to have it.

Li Zan: "Let's go."

"g?"

Chen Jie, who felt like she hadn't discovered anything, was full of doubts, but she still did some ideological work to deal with the aftermath. She gave Sister Lian a few words and then left closely behind Li Zan.

There is no elevator in this building, so you can only climb up and down on two legs.

Li Zan and the two quickly arrived at the second floor. There was a short woman in a red sweater standing at the door of 203 on the second floor, opposite the stairs.

When the two sides missed each other, they both glanced at each other. Li Zan recognized her as the middle-aged woman who had just been at the same table with the man with dysgeusia in the wonton shop. Her name seemed to be...Sister-in-law Lin?

The short woman in the red sweater saw them coming down the stairs and took out a bunch of keys to open the door. The keys jingled.

Li Zan raised his head and glanced at the rather spectacular bunch of keys, which made his teeth ache.

This is actually a tenant who owns a building, so disrespectful.

..

Jinyuan Plaza.

There is a wide road on the right side of Jinyuan Square, called Chajing Street, which divides the area of ​​Chajing Street into two halves. On the other side is the urban village, with a large number of farmers' buildings and hand-holding buildings, a mixture of good and bad, and the public security situation depends on your own awareness.

That kind of.

The remaining half is made up of neat and orderly communities, commercial plazas and office buildings, which in a sense is a sharp contrast.

There is an endless flow of people at the gates of Jinyuan Plaza. There are supermarkets, cinemas, restaurants and other chain industries. The underground parking lot on the far left is busy with traffic, and the horizontal bar has not stopped going up and down.

A row of cars were parked in a ground parking lot opposite the square. The window of one of the Santana cars was pulled halfway, revealing Zhao Yanli in business attire in the driver's seat.

While Zhao Yanli was on the phone, he pulled down his sunglasses and stared at the man next to the fountain in Jinyuan Square opposite. He was watching the street artist painting, while the people next to him were watching him.

Either passing by, pretending to look at it casually, or stopping to take a peek. Once their eyes and attention touch the walking morning star, they cannot move away and are firmly attracted to it.

"Hmm... I know, okay, hey, I know, I promise to be obedient and sensible and not ruin the blind date party you worked so hard to arrange. I'm here and I'm hanging up."

Zhao Yanli hung up the phone, thinking that if her blind date could have one-tenth of the looks and temperament of the man opposite her, she would be fine.

After closing the car door, Zhao Yanli was about to walk towards Jinyuan Square when he happened to see Li Zan walking slowly from the main road on the right.

The captain of the Criminal Investigation Brigade of the Dongcheng District Branch, a public official with a mediocre track record of neglecting his duties and having nothing to do but wait for death!

Zhao Yanli learned about Li Zan's identity from his seniors at the main station. He was 30% disdainful of his character, and the remaining 70% was excited to find out about the intersection of the current public official's inaction and the vicious corpse dismemberment case.

Although her seniors warned her not to touch public officials, especially pay less attention to Li Zan, they also said that this person was not easy to mess with, and she would rather offend the district police chief than offend him.

However, in Zhao Yanli's view, these 'advices' were nothing more than evidence that her predecessors were timid and fearful and that Li Zan might abuse his power for profit. It would only strengthen her determination to track down Li Zan and expose his corrupt face.

Zhao Yanli clutched her cell phone tightly and approached Li Zan's direction.

A circle of drunkards gathered around the fountain, and Li Zan, who had excellent eyesight and had no faults, naturally saw it too.

He also recognized Jiang Heng, who was the center of the crowd. When the latter raised his head, the two looked at each other.

Jiang Heng greeted him with a nod and a smile, showing his reserved big white teeth. His movements made it seem like if he was wearing a tall hat, he could take it off to behave like a gentleman.
To be continued...
