Chapter 782: Nosy
Chen Chuan walked into the room.
No one was seen, and as soon as the door opened, the yelling sound started.
"What are three old men doing behind closed doors? What are they doing? Haha, I packed delicious food for you."
Chen Chuan walked in with a smile and saw Chen Shu and Zhu Yiba holding cups of tea. He waved his hands carelessly: "Xiaohai, hurry up, go to my room and get one of the tea cakes in the suitcase. "
"Okay!"
If Brother Chuan makes a move, it will definitely be a high-quality product.
After Jiang Hai agreed, he took the room card and ran out immediately.
At this moment, Zhu Yiba looked at the back of Jiang Hai who ran out with great interest, and said with some regret: "It's a pity that this murder case was solved. If Huang Mao had some social experience, or his relationship in the team would be better, , can win this case, so our work will not be in vain. "
As he talked about the latter part, he became a little angry: "Damn it! We obviously solved this murder case, but in the end we got an advantage for them!"
Chen Chuan's expression was relaxed, but he didn't look angry at all. He teased in a long voice: "Come on, we are going on a trip, so we should be happy."
Zhu Yiba didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "Speaking of Chen Chuan, I see that you really treat yourself as an outsider when you are handling the case. You have watched dozens of episodes of cartoons, right? That's it. Anyone else would be happy."
"Of course I'm an outsider here." Chen Chuan happily took out a piece of flower cake from the bag and started eating it, "Hmm, eat it, eat it quickly, it's freshly baked and it's still warm."
Chen Shu took out a pack of flower cakes from the bag and handed it to Zhu Yiba, and said: "How can you say that all your work is in vain? Huang Mao is new to a new unit. In fact, he does not need to insist on winning the case. What is more important is to work with him. Build good relationships with colleagues. As long as the popularity is in place, there will only be more and more cases. There is no shortage of cases. "
Zhu Yiba scratched his scalp and said awkwardly: "I'm just a little pity. After all, we put in a lot of effort, and we were the ones who caught him in the end. In the end, he was taken away after a few kisses between his lips."
Chen Shu consoled him: "It's originally on someone else's territory, and it's their case. We have to leave it to them based on circumstances and reasons. In fact, as long as Huang Mao can settle down, we will gain something."
"Chen Da." Zhu Yiba was deeply moved.
Chen Shu patted the other party's shoulder at the right time, and suddenly felt that he was getting old.
"I'm going to choke you. I'm almost going to vomit." At this time, a joking voice rang out in the room, "But how could things end so easily?"
Chen Chuan hugged his chest and laughed.
"Huh? Hasn't the person been arrested already? That kid Zheng Jie, at first glance, it was him who committed the crime." Zhu Yiba turned his head, knowing that there was something in Chen Chuan's obvious words.
Chen Chuan pointed at Chen Shu and said with a smile: "If the case is really over, why did our Conan book stay in the fragrant big bed of the five-star hotel last night instead of sleeping, and instead wandered around the crime scene for a long time? ? Tsk tsk, with that reluctant expression, people who don’t know may think that the old friend has been let go.”
Chen Shu corrected him and said, "Don't lie. The seal on the door was blown off by the wind. I was afraid that someone else might come in, so I helped put it on."
"Are you considered an irrelevant person? If the seal is blown away by the wind, you can go in?" Chen Chuan rolled his eyes at the other party and deliberately raised his voice and said, "Oh, I understand. You want to help check Didn’t someone lose something in the next room, haha.”
Chen Shu shrugged, unable to do anything about his little friend, and explained: "I'm just a little confused about the traces of hemp rope on the curtain cloth at the crime scene. Logically speaking, there should be mud on the rope as well. But the hanging rope is clean."
After a pause, he frowned and thought, considering various possibilities: "I don't know if the mud on the grass downstairs is the same as the mud on the curtains. How did the mud downstairs get into the room upstairs? .”
When talking about the case, Zhu Yiba, who had encountered this kind of murder case for the first time, still had a strong sense of involvement.
Although it has been a long time since he transferred from the border armed police to the local police, Zhu Yiba has been working as a special police officer, and his daily work is either training or patrolling.
Therefore, I still have a strong curiosity about this kind of investigation and handling of cases.
Seeing Chen Shu mention it at this moment, he also followed up and said: "Zheng Jie lives on the fourth floor, and the deceased is on the third floor. Could the rope be used to hang people? Mr. Chen, don't you infer that there should be a second person at the scene? A rope?"
"It's possible." Chen Shu held his chin and spoke slowly. After speaking, he showed no intention of following the investigation. It felt like he had really put the case down.
After the room was quiet for a moment, Chen Chuan clicked his tongue and said jokingly: "Shu, are you really addicted to Conan? Are you annoyed? The case has been handed over to them, why are you still joining in the fun? We are on vacation. "It's not a business trip. Are you tired of being a human being?"
Chen Shu scratched his scalp in shame and admitted: "I'm not tired, I'm just itchy."
"You are not an animal. You need to take a break even if you are not tired." Chen Chuan gathered the sundries on the table and threw them on the sofa to make tea later. He educated his old classmate, "You, don't you think that people are asking you for help? In such a big provincial capital, can't you even find someone to solve the case? Count on you, a guy from another province, to help? Forget it, my brother! My dear brother!"
Chen Shu laughed awkwardly and did not answer.
Chen Chuan rolled up his sleeves and coughed twice. He was about to take this rare opportunity to say a few more words. At this time, a mobile phone rang in the room.
Zhu Yiba, who was about to take a few bites of the flower cake, was stunned and took out his mobile phone from his pocket.
Under the light, the caller's name on the mobile phone screen was very clear.
Yellow hair.
"Platoon leader! Zheng Jie has a complete alibi!"
"The murderer may not be him!"
"What should I do?"
Zhu Yiba hung up the phone and looked at Chen Shu and Chen Chuan. The three of them looked at each other.
After a while, Zhu Yiba was the first to ask, "Chen Da, what should we do now?"
As Huang Mao's former platoon leader, Zhu Yiba wanted to help his younger brother from the bottom of his heart. But the results of his hard work in the past few days were reaped in the blink of an eye. He was really embarrassed to let everyone work in vain.
As soon as he said it, he regretted it a little.
Chen Chuan frowned and said unhappily: "Brothers, we are here for vacation, not for business trip!"
"It's delicious, um, really delicious." Chen Shu did not answer directly, but nodded and praised while eating the flower cake that Chen Chuan brought from outside, "This snack is really very good. Hey, Chen Chuan, I have to say that you are a very discerning person. I really don't know how we will live without you."
"Come on, don't flatter me." Chen Chuan's mouth corners were almost upturned to the sky, but he still insisted on his position, "You can go if you want, I won't go."
"Well, you know what, this pie tastes really good. Chen Chuan, where do you sell it? I'll buy a few boxes and send them to my father later." Zhu Yiba, who came to his senses, immediately followed suit and flattered, without any of the reservedness that a retired soldier should have.
"Okay, stop putting the blame on me. I've given up. You guys are really hopeless." Chen Chuan shook his head helplessly, "You really can't do anything."
As he was talking, Jiang Hai ran back excitedly with a tea cake in his hand, and asked expectantly: "What are you going to do? Are you going back to handle the case? Don't you want to drink tea?"
"Drink!" Chen Chuan took the tea cake and started to make tea skillfully.
Jiang Hai was a bit depressed as usual: "Ah? You're not going to work anymore? What should we do now?"
Chen Chuan felt a little wronged and said: "After drinking, we'll continue working. What else can we do? Our Captain Chen is famous for being nosy."
Chen Shu quickly finished the flower cake in his hand, stood up and said: "Haha, you guys drink tea first, I'll make a phone call. Huang Mao probably hasn't gotten used to our police's style of collective case handling, so he called in a hurry."
"I'll go and explain a few things, and I'll be back soon. Tonight, we're not going anywhere, just rest in the hotel."
Chen Shu went out with his phone, leaving the three of them looking at each other.
