The Devil is Lurking By Your Side - Chapter 168

Officer Zhang’s visit has undoubtedly brought some useful information to Leng Yu and others, which made Officer Tang very gratified. Because he felt that they were one step closer to the truth.

“The murderer is very clever, this is undeniable. At the same time, he left many flaws, just because he wanted to cover up his crime, but he failed…” Leng Yu said with his arms folded.

“But… We don’t know his identity yet.” Officer Tang stood up at this moment and said to Leng Yu, speaking with anxiety.

Then he said: “If we don’t find the murderer one day, we won’t be able to explain to Yan Shikai’s family.”

After Leng Yu and Lin Xin listened, they naturally understood the meaning of his words.

So, Lin Xin smiled slightly and said to him: “Inspector Tang, since we have taken over this task, we will try our best to find the murderer. Now, let us start to piece together these fragmentary clues, so maybe we can We can guess the identity of the murderer, and then we can start searching from it.”

“Okay, let’s start now. Officer Zhang, you stay here and listen to Officer Lin and their analysis results.” Officer Tang commanded, while staring at Lin Xin with his eyes, looking forward to her next time. analyze.

After Police Officer Zhang agreed, he sat in his place and cheered up.

Lin Xin glanced at Leng Yu, nodded when she saw the other party, got up from the chair and walked to the center of the conference hall. After thinking about it for a while, she said to them: “Everyone, let’s start with the boy Yan Shikai. Yan Shikai is the missing person in this case and the victim of this case. However, he is only 15 years old. It was only a junior high school student, but after nearly 2 weeks of temporary work in the magic team, he disappeared for no reason. However, we only recently found his body, and the upper body bones and head are in Yan’s house. It was found in the trash can. Police Officer Leng and I went to Yan’s house for a while and found that in Yan Shikai’s bedroom, a small cyan iron box was hidden, and a sum of money was hidden in the iron box. “

When Lin Xin said this, she glanced at Officer Zhang, re-concluding and explaining everything she found.

After hearing her pause, she said again: “When Officer Leng and I went to Yan’s house for the first time, we found this clue and wondered why a small magic team would be able to provide so much to Lingong. So I guessed that maybe the entire magic team is being controlled by someone with a lot of money. Later, Officer Tang and we came to Yan’s house again today. This time we counted the pen that Yan Shikai had hidden. The money was found to be 12,000, and then we learned from your mouth that the daily salary of temporary workers is 500 yuan, no matter how it is calculated, it can’t be 12,000. In addition, we also asked Mrs. Yan , She said that she had never given her son so much money, so where did the extra money come from? Here, we made another guess, this money may really come from the magic team , It’s just that the salary the team paid him is different from the rest of the temporary workers, he obviously got more.”

“Why does the magic team want to pay Yan Shikai more?” Officer Zhang frowned and asked, his thoughts were a little confused, and he didn’t understand why the magic team wanted to do this.

Police Officer Tang said at this time: “Officer Zhang, because the murderer locked Yan Shikai early in the morning. They came to Longshi to perform not because they wanted to make a name for the team, but just as a cover to attract Yan Shikai, and then again. Act against him. As for why this is the case, Officer Lin will analyze it for us next.” When Police Officer Tang said this, he looked at Lin Xin again and said, “Officer Lin, just keep talking.”

Lin Xin nodded, and then said, “Inspector Tang is right. The murderer may have locked Yan Shikai early in the morning, and then came to Longshi all the way. As for why we wanted to look for Yan Shikai, we guessed that it was because of the murderer and Yan’s family. Perhaps there has been hatred. But, things are back to the original point again, what kind of hatred can a 15-year-old boy have with the murderer? So, we targeted Yan Shikai’s parents. Then, today we went. After a visit to Yan’s house, something really came out of Yan Shikai’s father, Yan Jie. We discovered that Yan Jie had a lot of romantic history when he was young, and these romantic debts did not seem to have been repaid by him. And he doesn’t treat them as the same thing, which may have caused all the disasters today. Therefore, we guess that the case may be related to hatred, but the object of hatred is not Yan Shikai, but Yan Jie, but this debt is Yan Shikai will pay it back.”

Officer Zhang then interjected again and asked: “So, is this **** incident related to Yan Jie’s romantic debts back then?”

Lin Xin nodded and said, “Perhaps this is the case. However, I want to ask you… When you put out information from Lin Gong, is there anyone who has ever confided that Yan Shikai was in the magic group? Have there been disputes, even fighting incidents?”

“That’s not true.” Officer Tang and Officer Zhang said in unison.

“Well, that’s it. Since there has been no dispute, then where is the hatred?” Lin Xin said, and then walked in the conference hall.

After a long time, she said again: “The next thing we want to talk about is why the Magic Group chose to dismiss Temporary Workers before 14 days have passed. We have just discussed this reason, so we turned our focus to another. Let’s get a clue. We mentioned it with Officer Tang before that before the magic show started, two groups of employees arranged the venue. The first group was done by Longshi XX Service Company, and the other group was done by Longshi XX Service Company. It was sent by the magic team. According to Zhang Qing Zhang, the foreman of the XX service company, the second batch of employees said that their way of setting up the backstage is very rusty, completely like a layman. Then, if we transfer things to magic After the group dismissed Temporary Workers on the 12th day, which group of employees replaced Temporary Workers to do these back-end and aftercare tasks? According to me, I think it is still a group of unfamiliar employees who will replace them. NS.”

“I agree with Officer Lin’s view. These employees are still in Longshi, so if they are not allowed to do the aftermath, who should do it?” Officer Tang said.

“Well, I think so too.” Leng Yuxing said, then looked at Officer Zhang and asked: “What do you think?”

“I feel so too.” Officer Zhang nodded and said.

Lin Xin glanced at everyone and said, “Well, since everyone feels so, then I will continue. Earlier, we also learned from Foreman Zhang from XX service company that these jerky employees Dark skin, then it proves that they should be exposed to the sun for a long time like Zhang Gongtou and others. But, what kind of work did they do? Why is the skin darker than ordinary people? What do you think about this? ?”

Officer Tang frowned and said, “I think it’s really possible that they will work in the sun for a long time. Otherwise, I can’t imagine why their skin is so dark…”

Lin Xin nodded, and then asked Officer Zhang: “What about you? What do you think?”

“I have the same opinion as Police Officer Tang.” Only Police Officer Zhang said.

“Yes, I am the same. But we must pay attention to another clue.” Lin Xin put her hand behind her, and said slowly.

“What clue?” Officer Tang asked again. He was very interested in Lin Xin’s methodical analysis, and his eyes were round.

Lin Xin smiled slightly and asked Officer Tang: “Yan Shikai’s father, where did Yan Jie go to work when he was young?”

“Ah! He went across the ocean to Country T!” Police Officer Tang opened his eyes wide in vain, and said, his head was clear and he knew exactly what Lin Xin would say next.

“Yes, he went to country T. Then, what kind of country is country T?” Lin Xin raised her eyebrows and asked with a smile on her mouth.

“Country T is a tropical country. It is hot all year round. The people there are darker. Officer Lin, do you mean that these people are all from Country T?” Officer Tang asked with some surprise.

“It’s not ruled out that they are national T, why? Then we have to start with rice grains and rice grains.” Lin Xin said with a smile, her eyes very smart.

“Ahhh! That’s right! Rice grains and rice grains are from the same place, that is T country fragrant rice! Therefore, these people are engaged in the production of white rice! They may be farmers, or they may be in a white rice factory. Employees who work! No wonder, no wonder… That’s why they don’t know how to arrange the backstage at all! Also because of their long stay in Country T, their skin is darker than the domestic ones…” Police Officer Tang said suddenly, regarding such a discovery. I was surprised, but also novel.

In this way, a grain of rice brought another turning point in the case, and it could even be said that it created another direction of reconnaissance.

Lin Xin and Leng Yu looked at Officer Tang with satisfaction at this time, and when they saw the old man’s face showing brilliance again, they knew that they were not far from solving the case.

“Then what shall we do now?” Police Officer Tang asked, with a tremor in his tone.

It was caused by being too excited. .

“Inspector Tang, we haven’t talked about the identity of the murderer yet.” Lin Xin still kept smiling and blinked at Officer Tang.

“Haha, don’t I see that I am confused? I haven’t found the identity of the murderer, so I was anxious about what I should do next.” Police officer Tang stretched out his hand and scratched his head at this moment, and said with some embarrassment.

“The identity of the murderer is already obvious. I’m reminding you. Do you remember the white van that was burned down by Peng Dahu?” Lin Xin asked.

Officer Tang looked at her, and his head flashed: “Ah! I know!!! The van belongs to the murderer!!! The van is not rented from abroad, but originally belonged to the murderer!”

Lin Xin clapped her hands and said with a smile: “Yes, the van belongs to the murderer, and the magic team also belongs to him. Those employees were hired by him, even the people in the acrobatic troupe, magicians, etc. He hired him. So, isn’t this person’s identity already obvious? Rice grains were found in the van… Officer Tang, what does this remind you of?”

Officer Tang looked at Lin Xin in a daze, and then turned to look at Leng Yu who was sitting aside again, with endless admiration and incredible in his eyes.

I see!

The true identity of the murderer is really not simple!

But Lin Xin and Leng Yu actually pieced together the outline of the whole case from these fragmentary clues and guessed the occupation and identity of the murderer. .

The author has something to say: The inspiration for this case came when the author was eating, haha.
