Chapter 1,699 Questions

"that……"

It was the middle-aged man who spoke first again.

"You can leave if you want to."

The female police officer interrupted the middle-aged man.

"I hope you can leave."

"There will be a lot of people coming later."

"And here..."

The female police officer looked around and said, "Obviously not big enough."

She looked at the young man and said, "Sir, could you please leave your contact information?"

Among the people present, she has the phone number of the white-collar woman who left just now.

She knew the location of the middle-aged man's shop.

The old man lives here and is easier to find.

There is only a young man with whom she has no contact information.

...

"Ah, okay."

The young man didn't ask or hesitate.

He simply left his contact information.

He knew that not only him, but everyone present today should have their contact information with the police.

Moreover, among these people, he is the one who has the closest relationship with Brother Li.

Although he didn't say a few words to Brother Li.

But they work for the same company.

That alone was worth asking the police for his contact information.

...

Before leaving, the young man couldn't hold back his curiosity and hesitantly asked the question that had been lingering in his mind for a while.

"Comrade police."

"Inside the house-"

He looked at the door of Brother Li's house, "Really... someone died?"

The female police officer nodded slightly.

There's nothing to hide.

When people from the police station come over, everyone nearby will know that someone died here.

"Drink~"

The young man gasped.

"Bang~"

The old man accidentally bumped into the door panel next to him.

"Old man, are you okay?"

The female police officer asked with concern.

"it's okay no problem."

The old man held on to the door frame and said, "Police, comrade police, are you telling the truth?"

"Xiao Li...is dead?"

The female police officer shook her head and said, "The identity of the deceased has not been confirmed yet."

She didn't let the old man ask any more, "Old man, you'd better close the door."

"It's going to be a little noisy in here."

"Ah, oh oh."

The old man couldn't see through the female police officer's avoidance.

Although she was a little regretful, she knew that the female police officer would not reveal any more information to her.

At this time, she should do as the police comrades said.

The old man closed the door.



The young man left together with the middle-aged man.

After walking a few steps, they heard a high-pitched siren.

It breaks the lazy atmosphere of summer.

It makes people's hearts tense up.

The young man and the middle-aged man looked at each other, but neither said a word.



When they were about to walk out of the unit building, they saw the police approaching.

His steps were quick and his expression was stern.

They turned sideways.

The police filed past.

Soon, the police officers disappeared around the corner of the stairs.

The young man couldn't help but let out a long breath.

Noticing the middle-aged man's gaze, he smiled sheepishly.

The middle-aged man subconsciously smiled back.

Neither of their smiles were very natural.



The bright sunshine is shining on me.

It seems to have dispelled some of the haze in the hearts of middle-aged men and young men.

Their expressions became a little brighter.

The two of them didn't exchange much greetings and waved to each other as a farewell.

It turned out that they were leaving in the same direction.

Both of their expressions were awkward for a moment.



The two of them walked in silence all the way to the gate of the community.

This time there are really two directions.

The two waved to each other again.

They can also be regarded as "brothers in need" in a sense.

I wonder if the next time we meet will be at the police station?

The young man turned around and twitched his lips.

He looked at the time.

Although it's not too early, he should go back to the company.

I need to tell the company about Brother Li.

The police came to our door when we saved it, and the company was still in a fog.

Moreover, after experiencing such a big shock, he didn't want to be alone.

It's better to go to the office and calm down.

If he tells you his own experience, he won't be so, so...

He couldn't tell either.

I just feel a little uncomfortable with my heart tightening.

I really scare myself.

He shook his head.

Clearly nothing was seen.

...

Meng Jixi picked up the tea cup in front of him and took a big sip of tea.

I talked too much and my mouth became thirsty.

Seeing this, Xiao Xiao smiled and said, "What's the problem with that skeleton?"

"Pa~"

Meng Jixi snapped his fingers.

"Master Xiao is smart."

Xiao Xiao shook his head in amusement.

Isn't this obvious?

"What happened to the skeleton?"

Chi Xiuchuan couldn't help but ask.

Axi just told him a general idea before.

Let’s wait until we meet Master Xiao to tell you the details.

Save him from saying the same thing twice.

"Is that skeleton the owner of the house?"

Chi Xiuke also asked his doubts.

"Yes."

Meng Jixi nodded, "That skeleton is the owner of the house, Li Wei."

"That's the bad uncle that the kid suspected of stealing his parrot."

"Did he really steal the child's parrot?"

Chi Xiuke held the tea cup in front of him with both hands.

The fragrant aroma of tea slowly eased her turbulent mood.

"have no idea."

Meng Jixi shook his head.

"No parrot was found in Li Wei's house."

"Nothing unusual was found."

"Nothing unusual?"

Chi Xiuchuan vaguely sensed Meng Jixi's intention.

"Yes."

Meng Jixi frowned, "I didn't find any signs of struggle or fighting."

"No ingredients found in the items in the house could cause coma."

"So, why did he die so peacefully?"

Meng Jixi thought for a long time and reluctantly chose an adjective that was not so appropriate, "The police are still investigating."

...

"Then why did his body turn into a withered skeleton?"

Chi Xiuchuan continued to ask.

"Did the temperature in the room be too high, which accelerated the decomposition of the body?"

After all, it's midsummer now.

"In the house-"

"The air conditioning is on in the room."

Meng Jixi's voice sounded almost at the same time as Chi Xiuchuan's.

"ah?"

Chi Xiuchuan was stunned, "Did you turn on the air conditioner?"

"Yes."

Meng Jixi couldn't help but clicked his tongue.

"Dou Wei is just like going to bed when his usual time is over."

"But I didn't know that if I fell asleep this time, I would never wake up again."

"There is only a withered skeleton left."



"How long has he been dead?"

Chi Xiuchuan rubbed his forehead, "Or was some medicine used?"

"Did you find anything at the scene?"

"No."

Meng Jixi spread his hands, "Didn't I just say that?"

"Everything is normal on site."

"Nothing found."

"That's why it's so distressing."

"However, just because it's not there doesn't necessarily mean anything."

"Who knows if the murderer is too cunning and did a good job of mopping up the pieces?"
