Chapter 14 I'm Fine
Miss Nan's acting skills have always been carefree. Even if her disguise is exposed, her expression remains unchanged.
"Actually, I never thought I would run into you." Nan Xiaonan shrugged, "I just planned to do the autopsy quietly and then leave quietly. It was you who broke in without my consent." My life.”
Isn't this a very rogue statement?
Honghai's life has always been very simple, without a lot of intrigues or quarrels... In fact, it is difficult for most people to talk to her for more than thirty seconds.
"Why do we need an autopsy?" Honghai couldn't help but frowned.
There were very few things that her eyes couldn't see through. All she saw was just a bunch of black things... Unknown, unknown things always make people subconsciously shy away.
"Interested." Nan Xiaonan said calmly: "Simply interested... Of course, you can also be regarded as a person who has nothing to do, and suddenly feels that he has found something to do."
Hong Boy obviously didn't believe this, but at this moment the horse came in a hurry, interrupting the initial contact between the two.
"Miss Honghai, I'm afraid the current situation is not suitable for continuing to handle the case." Ma frowned and said: "The director means that someone will send you home to rest first... If there is any new progress in the case, we will report it as soon as possible. I told you."
Honghai said directly: "Officer Ma, what do you mean?"
Ma said very officially: "What the director means is what I mean."
Hong Hai sneered at this time, and said in a trembling voice that made the director quietly pricking up his ears and even used some tricks to fully strengthen his hearing: "That's easy, I'll let my mother He will be dismissed and replaced by you."
Damn it?
Is there such an operation?
But does it feel okay?
Ma's eyes widened immediately, and his little heart was beating wildly. It was a bit exciting to think about it. Hey, what is the annual salary of the director...
"Old Ma! You don't have to worry about things in the bureau! Your most important job now is to accompany Miss Honghai to arrest the murderer as soon as possible!" In the distance, the director was holding a loudspeaker, "Here, what is needed most at this time is Yes, it’s me, the director who has served the Huoyun City Police Department for more than 60 years, who will personally take charge... Don’t worry, I will take care of everything!"
Hong Hai smiled slightly and said, "Officer Ma, what do you mean now."
Ma sighed, "Let's go, we have traced the taxi that carried people last night... But Miss, I have one request, everything about handling the case must be obeyed by me."
"I can listen to you." Honghai said calmly: "But whether to do it or not is my business... Also, bring this guy with you. I still have something to ask him."
"Old Fang?" Ma couldn't help but blinked.
When we go out to handle cases and look for clues, we are not going to the murder scene. What are we doing with the forensic officer?
…
…
The city is bustling, and the forest park in Huoyun City is also in full swing... The workers are busy digging.
Soon, a new hotel will be built here.
The Little Forest Hotel is the most important project of the [Pingtian] Group this year, but I heard that Boss Niu canceled attending the groundbreaking ceremony a few days later.
Under the ground, various smells mix. Workers are turning their tools, doing manual labor with low real-time pay under the orders of the black-hearted foreman.
Even so, the scene was still full of looking workers, most of whom were temporary workers, and most of these temporary workers came from the lower classes of Huoyun City or were homeless vagrants.
There are also those who work multiple jobs to make a living, even coming to make extra money at night.
"TM's [Pingtian] Group is really a black-hearted enterprise. I have never seen such ruthless exploitation..."
Instead of working hard, the temporary workers worked harder to criticize Huoyun Market's greatest capital despite being guilty... At this time, Teacher Xiaohu touched the wet water stains on his forehead and raised his eyes dizzily. head.
The pit was dug in an area larger than a football field, and it was more than twenty meters deep... Looking up, it was like standing in an abyss.
Although the temporary workers were cursing, in Huoyun City, only the Pingtian Group could start such a huge project and recruit so many temporary workers at once.
Teacher Xiaohu worked as a temporary worker at this construction site, probably half a month ago. Relying on the characteristics of the exercises he practiced, which are quick recuperation and sufficient physical strength, he could do the work of two people by himself and be able to get The salary of one and a half people...the income is barely enough.
The income of his parents in his hometown is not high, and his younger brother is promising. He is currently studying in a blessed place and is much more promising than him. However, the consumption in the blessed place is too high. He needs to support his younger brother's studies. With just a salary, The salary of Yun Gao's sparring teachers is not enough.
"Come here, someone has fainted... People above, why have they stopped supplying oxygen! Are you going to kill someone?!"
The sound of local commotion suddenly came... not far from Teacher Xiaohu.
In fact, he has long been accustomed to this situation. Underground excavation work will dig out many passages... If oxygen is not supplied, his life will be in danger at any time.
There are not many cultivation methods that people at the bottom have access to. It is difficult for people to reach the turtle breath state with the common cultivation techniques... Those who can reach the turtle breath state are almost out of the mortal world, let alone the people at the bottom. Well, even if children from wealthy families receive a good education, they may not succeed.
The person who fainted was an elderly, very skinny, slovenly old man... Maybe they had met him once, right?
Teacher Xiaohu watched silently as the old man was carried away.
This old man was actually not breathing.
It was hard to imagine that such a scene would occur in a bustling metropolis like Huoyun City... He silently paid tribute to the old man for a moment, and then picked up the shovel again.
His working hours every night will not be very long, otherwise he will not be able to guarantee his physical strength the next day. After all, Huo Yungao's work is mainly based on it.
It's just that tomorrow is the weekend, so the time to work tonight can be slightly longer... Why don't we move bricks all night?
"Oops, pit No. 7 has collapsed... Someone come quickly!!"
But things that don't go as one wants often happen. Teacher Xiaohu's idea of working all night was soon forced to stop due to a landslide at a pit.
The workers believed that this must be due to the engineer's wrong measurement, while the engineer believed that this was due to the workers not digging according to the plan. Both sides insisted on their own opinions, and the construction site came to a complete halt.
"Okay, okay, stop arguing, dig out the people buried inside first, save every one you can! Everyone, come and help!"
Soon, a passage was cleared out of the pit where the accident occurred. Several persons in charge of the construction site took the initiative to explore into the pit where the accident occurred. However, after a while, these persons in charge ran out in a hurry... ...I didn’t say anything. I just announced the suspension of work, settled the wages of temporary workers on site, and announced when to resume work.
"It seems that work will not resume in the next two days... Let's go to the Huoyun Mine tomorrow to have a look."
Teacher Xiaohu weighed the harvest tonight and frowned slightly... He didn't even do his usual working hours, and he couldn't help but feel a little discouraged.
"Listen to me, something must have been dug up inside. I was nearby... and saw a light, a precious light!"
"Did you see what it was?"
"I'm telling you...shh."
The two temporary workers who were talking quietly suddenly stopped talking, then looked warily at Teacher Xiaohu who just passed by, and then quickly disappeared into the forest.
Baoguang...
Teacher Xiaohu couldn't help but be startled, and subconsciously glanced at the big pit underneath... He quickly shook his head. Even if he really dug up a treasure, it would not be spit out even if it was the bones in the hands of the [Pingtian] Group. of.
[Canglan] The title of the top ten black-hearted enterprises is not for nothing. He shook his head and quickly left the construction site in the Central Forest.
…
"...It's okay. I have the weekend off tomorrow. I just came back from a party outside with my colleagues."
He held the phone between his neck and two bags of food in his hand, crawling around in the narrow corridor... The lights in the corridor were flickering, and it looked like it was in disrepair.
"Don't worry about weapons. The teams I led this month have done well. The school has given out a lot of bonuses. I will remit them to you in two days... I heard from my brother that we need to use weapons. At least use a second-level magical weapon or above. Without good weapons, you can’t do any damage, right?”
"It's enough, why isn't it enough? Well, I must have left some living expenses for myself. Is it possible that your brother can still save money and live for you... But you are a sensible boy, if you bother me to buy spiritual weapons , I will publish it in the newspaper to break away from the brotherhood for you."
"Girlfriend? How can games be fun with a girlfriend! When you reach my brother's age, you will realize how interesting it is to be self-reliant!"
"Okay, let's not talk anymore. I'm home... You can also call home a few more times when you have time."
Take up the line, open the door, close the door.
He leaned against the door and breathed out slowly.
Outside the window are the neon lights of Huoyun City that never go out at night. The rented apartment is like a stone at the bottom of a well, surrounded by tall buildings.
"You seem to be back a little early tonight?"
Suddenly a voice came.
"Gao Yang?"
Teacher Xiaohu subconsciously looked in the direction of the sound.
In the narrow living room at this time, the light source of the TV is the only light source in the apartment at this time, mainly to save electricity.
He glanced at the back of the figure sitting on the sofa and said in a daze: "Something happened at the construction site and work has been suspended. What about you...don't you have to take the late night train tonight?"
"Business is not very good tonight, so I might as well not do it... There is a [Canglan] Super League match in the middle of the night, so I have placed a heavy bet on the [Beidou] team. It depends on tonight if you want to eat porridge or eat!"
Gambler...
Teacher Xiaohu shook his head, then thought for a moment and said, "By the way, do you need any temporary replacements? I shouldn't have to go to the construction site these two days, so I can help you with the replacements."
"Brother, it's true that you can drive, but you don't have a taxi license. If you are caught, I will be in trouble."
"It's okay, that's all I said." Teacher Xiaohu smiled coyly, "I'm going back to my room first..."
The voice in front of the TV suddenly said: "Xiaohu, are you okay today?"
"Today?" Teacher Xiaohu was startled, then smiled and said: "What can I do? I am standing in front of you properly... Don't look too late, but someone like you is running late every day. , I guess you can’t sleep either, right?”
"Good night."
"OK, good night."
…
After returning to the room, Teacher Xiaohu first folded the salary from the construction site in the evening and deposited it into an iron box... After that, he lay on the bed and scrolled through the news, Moments, and part-time information with some boredom. .
Suddenly, as if he remembered something, he quickly sat up.
Bags...clothes in bags.
He almost forgot about it.
Teacher Xiaohu took out a pair from the bag, laid it out on the bed, and carefully smoothed each corner of the clothes.
"There's no brand mark or anything, and it's hard to estimate." Teacher Xiaohu muttered to himself: "What kind of material is this made of..."
He actually regretted taking it back... being hasty.
He suddenly realized that there seemed to be no time for him to wear such formal clothes... Should he wear them to school? I'm afraid they would be torn in less than half a day.
So tired.
"Don't worry about me...I'm fine...very good..."
He lay face down on the bed, his eyelids gradually became heavy, and he fell into a deep sleep without realizing it.
The clothes suddenly seemed to have come to life at this moment, and they slowly flowed towards Teacher Xiaohu's body like water...
…
…
…
…
"What...sent it for maintenance, how come it's such a coincidence?"
Ma frowned. He was currently in a company called [Qiqi Taxi]. The police officer's ID allowed him to pass without any obstruction, and the person in charge of the taxi company was also very cooperative.
"The master who drove the car this morning said that there was some abnormal noise in the engine, so he sent it for maintenance. This batch of cars are all from 20 years ago. Occasionally, there will be some minor problems, which is normal."
Ma thought for a while and said, "I want to know the information about the driver who drove this taxi last night. Please provide me with it."
He had already stated his purpose of coming, and he was here to investigate a case. He did not explain what the case was.
The taxi company is not stupid and responsible. Naturally, they will not ask more questions, and they will not get into trouble with the police officers of Huoyun City for a contract worker. They will easily reveal the driver's information.
"According to records, this car is driven by an old Zheng... These are the information that Old Zheng registered with me."
Ma took the information, glanced at it, and handed it directly to the subordinate next to him, "Please contact this Lao Zheng."
At this time, Ma felt that he was going to appease the eldest lady of Huoyun City.
I saw that Hong Hai had a bad expression on his face at this time, folded his hands on his chest, and kept shaking his legs. He looked obviously impatient... but he was trying hard to restrain himself.
It's just that the temperature of the air is a bit high...
"The investigation is like this. You often come up short, so you have to be patient." Ma said seriously at this time, "But I have a hunch that if we follow this line of investigation, we will definitely find something."
Hong Hai frowned and was about to speak.
The person in charge of the taxi company said at this time: "Police officer, Lao Zheng is here! Look, he is Lao Zheng!"
At this time, I saw a man with a hat, a sallow complexion, and a windbreaker and a mask on a hot day slowly walking in... Hearing the person in charge shouting at this time, his eyes froze, and he turned around and ran away in horror.
boom!
Before the man could take two steps, he was caught up by a figure exuding a hot aura... The man only felt his body sink and he was directly pressed to the floor.
There were cracks on the entire floor at this time, and Hong Hai's long hair was slightly spread out, and sparks were flashing in the hair.
"Why are you running?" she asked coldly.
Lao Zheng vomited blood directly on the mask and said in a trembling voice: "No... I don't know, I just... I just felt something was wrong, so I ran..."
"..." Hong Boy gritted his teeth, "Tell me! Did you drive this girl last night?"
Honghai put the phone screen upright in front of Lao Zheng's eyes. On the screen was a photo of Bataan's daily life.
"Yesterday...last night? No, no!" Old Zheng said subconsciously: "I, I have never seen this girl."
Honghai snorted coldly: "The transportation bureau's eyes caught her getting into your car. Do you know what happened to her now...she was killed."
"Transportation Bureau..." Lao Zheng suddenly took a breath and said in horror: "No...it's not me! How dare I! There must be a mistake there."
Hong Hai's eyes narrowed slightly, and the heat in the air increased again... In the scorching heat, Ma quickly walked forward, and before Hong Hai made any further moves, he said directly: "Old Zheng, right? I now suspect you are involved in a murder case, please. Come back with me to assist in the investigation!"
"Really, it's really not me!" Lao Zheng shouted: "I was not the one driving last night!"
"But the record shows that you were the one who went to work last night!" Honghai said in a deep voice.
Lao Zheng said in a trembling voice: "Yesterday, last night, I had something to do, so I had to find someone to cover for me temporarily... The company has regulations that do not allow such cover-ups, so I didn't dare to say anything... Last night was really not the case... I!"
"Who is that person?"
"Yes... it's a guy named [Gao Yang]." Lao Zheng said quickly: "I'm not familiar with him, but he said he could substitute for half the money... I thought there's no reason not to take advantage. , so... then we reached an agreement with him. But I heard that the driver who took over the shift in the morning said that there seemed to be some problems with the car. I didn't know if it was Gao Yang's fault, and I didn't dare to tell, so I could only fool it... It’s really not me!”
"What's that person's name?" Hong Boy suddenly frowned.
"High!"
"Do you know this person?" Ma saw Miss Huoyun's expression changed slightly and couldn't help asking.
"I don't know." Honghai said calmly, and at the same time threw Lao Zheng to Ma, "You can ask, I won't ask...it's boring!"
Nan Xiaonan blinked her eyes at this time. She had been eating melon the whole time, but at this moment she quietly hid a pile of information on the desk of the taxi company's responsible person in her clothes.
There are a lot of identity information of veteran drivers here...
Don't want it for nothing.
