Chapter 576 Footprints in the Basement Staircase

Xu Lang stood on the balcony of 402 for a while, and then he turned and left without saying hello to anyone. This made Fan Yang, who was already very confused, even more confused.

"Old Qin, what did you just say to Brother Lang?"

Fan Yang glanced at the open door of 402, turned his head and looked at Qin Mingyue who was squatting on the ground, taking out the body parts from the refrigerator and asked.

Qin Mingyue shook her head and said, "You didn't say anything. What's wrong?"

"You didn't say anything, why did Brother Lang leave?" Fan Yang asked again.

Qin Mingyue did not answer this question, either because he was too lazy to answer or because he did not pay attention to this matter.

Fan Yang thought for a while, but still couldn't figure out the reason, so she walked to Qin Mingyue.

"Old Qin, have you discovered something?"

"Huh? What's the matter? Is it related to the case?" Qin Mingyue still didn't raise her head and asked casually.

"It has nothing to do with the case."

"oh."

Originally, Fan Yang thought that Qin Mingyue would ask what it was related to, but Qin Mingyue just said lightly and said nothing, which left Fan Yang speechless.

"Have you noticed that Brother Lang's whole person has changed since the New Year?"

Qin Mingyue was stunned for a moment, thought for a moment, shook her head and said, "I don't feel it, he is still the same Xu Lang as before."

"You really don't feel the change?"

Fan Yang looked at Qin Mingyue in disbelief.

Qin Mingyue finally put down her work, raised her head, looked at Fan Yang, and asked, "Where has he changed?"

When Qin Mingyue asked this, Fan Yang was also stunned. She couldn't tell for a while how Xu Lang had changed. Thinking about it carefully, Xu Lang seemed to be the same Xu Lang, but she always felt that now

The Xu Lang of Xu Lang is different from the Xu Lang of the past. Well, how should I put it? If the Xu Lang of the past was an unsheathed sword with its sharp edges exposed, then the current Xu Lang is a sword hidden in the scabbard.

Sword, the whole person is much more restrained.

Thinking of this, Fan Yang said what was on his mind.

The police officers from the city police station kept order outside and did not allow anyone to disturb Fan Yang and the others' work. However, Fan Yang and the others did not find any valuable clues after preliminary investigation of the scene. Now that Xu Lang is gone, Fan Yang

She started chatting with Qin Mingyue. Firstly, it was indeed related to Xu Lang himself. Secondly, it was Fan Yang who was making some small calculations. She wanted to chat more with Qin Mingyue and find a topic.

"Isn't this good? It shows that he has matured."

Qin Mingyue thought Fan Yang wanted to say something. When she heard what she said, Qin Mingyue thought about it and nodded, thinking that it was good that Xu Lang was like this.

Hearing this, Fan Yang was speechless. She thought to herself that Xu Lang was their leader after all. Something unusual happened to the leader. As a subordinate, he shouldn't be concerned about it. But, in this case, she couldn't tell Qin Mingyue, otherwise

, will make this cut elm knot think that he has some thoughts about Xu Lang. If this is the case, Fan Yang will be in bad shape.

Xu Lang is indeed very easy to make people curious, and curiosity kills the cat. When a woman is infinitely curious about a man, then she is not far from falling, or in other words, she has already fallen, and Fan

Yang is no longer a girl of seventeen or eighteen years old. She has experienced a lot. She is curious about men like Xu Lang, but will not delve into it because she knows that doing so will be very dangerous.

, from the two women Ning Yanran and Ye Xuefei, it can be seen that compared to the sharp-edged Xu Lang, Fan Yang still prefers the taciturn and somewhat dull Qin Mingyue. It is a pity that Qin Mingyue is just a pimple.

, refused to accept Fan Yang's affection, which made Fan Yang feel speechless.

Although Qin Mingyue did not give any opinions or views on the questions she raised, Qin Mingyue was right. It was good that Xu Lang could make such a change. It showed that Xu Lang was becoming more mature, which made Fan Yang more and more mature.

I felt relieved and became more and more confident in the detection of Xu Lulu’s case.

However, is Xu Lang really what Qin Mingyue said?

————————————————

The preliminary survey of the 402 site has been completed, and Xu Lang no longer needs to stay there. In other words, the 402 site does not have much survey value.

After Xu Langlai arrived in Room 402, he discovered that Room 402 was not the first crime scene.

First, there were no blood stains or body parts at the scene.

Second, no crime tools were found at the scene. Room 402 did not look like someone had lived there. There were not even the most basic pots and pans in the kitchen, let alone knives.

Third, the scene was too clean. The room was not big, but there was not a trace of blood on the walls. Moreover, the unit building where 402 was located had many residents and the sound insulation was not very good. It was not an ideal crime scene.

Combining these points, Xu Lang concluded that 402 was not the first crime scene, and he just wanted to make sure when he asked Fan Yang on the balcony.

After leaving the unit building, Xu Lang got directly into the car, started the car and left Guangpu Community. He did not return to the CSY office building, but drove straight towards Baiyou Entertainment Company. He wanted to verify a direct guess, a bold guess.

.

"Are you still at Baiyou Entertainment?"

Xu Lang dialed Shangguan Xue's phone number while driving.

"Well, I'm in Mr. Tang's office. What's wrong, Brother Lang?"

"As long as you're in the company, just ask Tang Youyou

thing."

"what's up?"

"Ask her if Baiyou Entertainment Company has a basement. If so, wait for me in the underground parking lot. I'll be there soon."

"Ah? What are you doing in the basement?" Shangguan Xue asked puzzledly on the other end of the phone.

"Just do as I say and I'll be there soon."

After saying this, Xu Lang hung up the phone directly without waiting for Shangguan Xue to continue asking questions.

On the other end of the phone, Shangguan Xue looked at the phone that had been hung up and was stunned. She was confused by Xu Lang. Although she didn't know what Xu Lang was going to do, Xu Lang must have a purpose for making such a request.

"Mr. Tang, I would like to ask, does your company have a basement?"

"Yes, what's wrong?" Tang Youyou said in confusion.

"Oh, that's it. Our team leader wants to take a look at the basement of your company. Is it convenient for you?" Shangguan Xue looked at Tang Youyou with some embarrassment and said.

"Convenience is convenient, but our company's basement has almost never been used since our company started working here. Why are you going to the basement?"

"..."

Faced with Tang Youyou's puzzled inquiry, Shangguan Xue was unable to give a reasonable explanation.

Tang Youyou guessed something when she saw Shangguan Xue's expression. She stopped asking, but turned to her assistant Ruan Xiaotong and said, "Take the officer to the basement with you."

Ruan Xiaotong nodded without saying anything and looked at Shangguan Xue.

Shangguan Xue stood up, thanked Tang Youyou, and left with Ruan Xiaotong.

After Shangguan Xue left, Tang Youyou, who had kept a smile on her face just now, suddenly frowned. She had a bad premonition, and this premonition became stronger and stronger.

Thinking that Shangguanxue had just asked to go to the company's basement to take a look, Shangguanxue was more confused than confused.

After pondering for a while, Tang Youyou seemed to have thought of something, her expression suddenly changed, she quickly stood up and walked towards the office door.

————————————————

Baiyou Entertainment Company underground parking lot.

After Xu Lang parked the car, he got out of the car. He didn't see Shangguan Xue. He frowned subconsciously. After thinking about it, he guessed that Shangguan Xue hadn't arrived at the underground parking lot yet, so Xu Lang came to the elevator entrance.

, waiting for Shangguan Xue’s arrival.

"Ding dong."

With the sound of the elevator, the elevator door opened, and Shangguan Xue, Qi Xiangming, and Ruan Xiaotong walked out of the elevator together.

After Shangguan Xue saw Xu Lang, she came over and asked, "Brother Lang, what's wrong? Why do you suddenly want to check the basement?"

Xu Lang glanced at her and said nothing. Instead, he turned his head to look at Ruan Xiaotong and found that she was holding a bunch of keys in her hand.

"Let's go."

Ruan Xiaotong did not hesitate, turned around and walked ahead, leading Xu Lang towards the basement.

The basement of Baiyou Company is under the parking lot. You walk half a circle along the elevator and go down a staircase.

The stairs were not long, only seven or eight steps. It was very dark here. When walking down the stairs, Xu Lang saw a light switch at the entrance of the stairs. He pressed it twice and found that it had no effect, so he knew

This may be a decoration.

"When this place was renovated before, the lights were still in good condition, but almost no one came here, so after the lights broke, they were never repaired," said Ruan Xiaotong, who was walking at the front.

At this time, Ruan Xiaotong held the keys in one hand and the mobile phone in the other, using the flashlight of the mobile phone to illuminate.

Ruan Xiaotong walked in the front, followed closely by Xu Lang, Shangguan Xue followed Xu Lang, and Qi Xiangming walked at the end.

Xu Lang also held a mobile phone in his hand. He did not look at Ruan Xiaotong's back, but held the mobile phone. Then the light from the mobile phone scanned everywhere, especially the steps and handrails of the stairwell.

After hearing what Ruan Xiaotong said, Xu Lang stopped, frowned, and looked at a step at his feet.

After Xu Lang stopped, Shangguan Xue and Qi Xiangming who were walking behind naturally stopped too.

Shangguan Xue walked to Xu Lang and asked softly: "What's wrong?"

Xu Lang did not speak, but knelt down and looked at the steps in front of him, frowning.

Shangguan Xue followed Xu Lang's gaze and quickly discovered the problem.

Just now, Ruan Xiaotong said that since Baiyou Company chose to work here, except for those who came here during decoration, almost no one came here. Ruan Xiaotong worked here when Baiyou Company was founded. She is an old person in the company.

What she said is quite convincing. It stands to reason that if no one walks around in a place for a long time, there should be a thick layer of dust on the ground, and this is indeed the case. There is indeed a thick layer of dust on the steps in front of you.

Dust, but there are a few footprints in the dust. The footprints are relatively new and should have been left recently.

Judging from the size of the footprints, this should be left by a man, because the footprints are very large and wide, and next to this footprint, there is a high-heeled footprint, which should be left by a woman. In addition, when getting closer,

On the other side of the wall, Shangguan Xue also found traces of wheels. Judging from the distance between the two wheels, this should be left by a suitcase.

"What's wrong?"

Ruan Xiaotong, who was walking at the front, subconsciously stopped after not hearing the footsteps behind him, and found that Xu Lang and the others had not followed.

, and asked.

At this time, Ruan Xiaotong was standing at the corner of the stairs. After she finished speaking and found that Xu Lang and the others ignored her, she was about to come over.

"Don't move, just stay where you are."

Ruan Xiaotong was wearing a pair of black high heels that made a clicking sound when she walked. When she just took the first step, Xu Lang raised his head, looked at Ruan Xiaotong with cold eyes and shouted.

Ruan Xiaotong, who was originally looking puzzled, was startled by Xu Lang's sudden voice. She subconsciously stopped, first looked at Xu Lang, and then took pictures with her phone.

"What happened? What did you find?" Ruan Xiaotong asked with a slightly trembling voice.

"It's nothing, just stand where you are and don't move."

Xu Lang glanced at Ruan Xiaotong and found that she had not come over. He repeated the sentence, then turned to Qi Xiangming and asked, "Have you brought your tools?"

"Bring it with me." Qi Xiangming replied.

Shangguan Xue stood up very wisely and took two steps back. Qi Xiangming stepped forward, first took out his mobile phone, and took a photo of the shoe prints on the steps with the light of Xu Lang's mobile phone. After taking the photo, he took out

Tools, start to extract shoe prints.

When Qi Xiangming was taking the shoe prints, Xu Lang asked Shangguan Xue to take out his mobile phone and illuminate it for Qi Xiangming, and he walked along the side and came to Ruan Xiaotong's side.

Xu Lang first glanced at the nervous Ruan Xiaotong and reassured him that it was okay. Then he squatted down and began to observe the ground in the stairwell.

The shoe prints on the steps were not very obvious, and the man's leather shoe prints had been stepped on by Ruan Xiaotong, basically losing their value. However, here, Xu Lang saw clear shoe prints.

There are five sets of shoe prints at the scene. In addition to the shoe prints left by Xu Lang and Ruan Xiaotong just now, there are also three sets of shoe prints, one of which is a man's leather shoe print, and the other is a woman's high-heeled shoe print.

In addition, there are also a set of sneaker prints.

The man's shoe print is about size 42. The sole pattern is V-shaped. The dust on the ground is very thick. The shoe print is very clear. According to the shoe print, this should be a pair of 80% new shoes. The shoes were left at the scene.

Judging from the depth and angle of the mark, the man walks with a slightly splayed figure and weighs about 150; the woman's shoe mark is very shallow, except for a small oval left by the heel of the high-heeled shoes.

A shoe print on the sole of the forefoot. Judging from the traces of the shoe print, the woman's walking posture is very standard and she should have received special training. However, it was not these two sets of shoe prints that attracted Xu Lang's attention and attention, but the third group of movements.

Footprints left by shoes.

The prints on the sneakers were neither big nor small. Xu Lang compared them with his hands and found that they were about size 38 and looked like they belonged to a woman. However, judging from the depth and angle of the shoe prints left at the scene, Xu Lang

Lang suspected that it was either left by a fat woman or a man with small feet. Compared to the former, Xu Lang preferred the latter.

In addition to the three sets of multiple sets of footprints at the scene, there were also traces left by two wheels on the ground. Next to where Xu Lang was squatting, there was a rectangular shallow pit, which was exactly the size of a large suitcase.

style.

Seeing this suitcase, Xu Lang thought of the large suitcase that had appeared many times in room 5116 of the Hyatt Hotel.

While Xu Lang was observing these footprints, Qi Xiangming and Shangguan Xue had already walked over. Qi Xiangming still followed the procedure, first taking photos to collect evidence, and then taking out tools to extract the shoe prints.

While Xu Lang and the others were doing this, Ruan Xiaotong had been standing quietly, watching Ruan Xiaotong's movements. Her entire face was in darkness and her expression could not be seen clearly. Only her eyes were extremely conspicuous due to the reflection.

.

It took time to obtain the shoe print model, so Xu Lang did not stay here anymore. He asked Shangguan Xue to stay and assist Qi Xiangming, while he asked Ruan Xiaotong to continue leading the way down the stairs to the basement.

After walking up the stairs for another seven or eight steps, they stopped in front of a door.

Maybe it's because this is a basement and the area is relatively humid. Maybe the basement has been rarely used since the building was built. The iron door looks very worn and covered with rust. The paint on the iron door has peeled off in some places.

, it looked very dilapidated and out of place with the whole building.

The iron door was locked. Ruan Xiaotong handed the mobile phone in her hand to Xu Lang, and she began to search for the basement key among a bunch of keys.

Ruan Xiaotong had a lot of keys in her hand. Maybe this was her first time here. It took her a long time to find the corresponding key. It was a straight-shaped key with single teeth. This kind of lock is rarely used in the city.

Because the material is not good, and the lock is easy to open, so it is not very safe as a home door. In addition, the key is very reliable, and now not most people use anti-theft doors.

After finding the key, Ruan Xiaotong inserted the key into the keyhole and twisted the key.

Xu Lang originally thought that the door had not been used for a long time and would be difficult to open. However, unexpectedly, the door lock opened smoothly. Ruan Xiaotong did not put any effort at all and opened the door with a slight twist of the lock.

After Ruan Xiaotong opened the door, Xu Lang stretched out his hand to signal her to step back. He held his mobile phone in one hand and opened the iron door with the other. Then, he stood at the door of the room, raised his mobile phone, and

Look inside.

As the iron door opened, a musty smell hit his face. The smell was a bit unpleasant. Xu Lang frowned. However, what made him frown was not the unpleasant musty smell, but among the musty smell, Xu Lang

You can smell the smell of blood and the smell of burnt meat.
