Chapter 596 The Ever-Changing Invisible Space
Li Banfeng sat in the office, looking up the information about Hulu Village. Shen Jingye was unwell and asked for a day off.
According to the information, Hulu Village is the nightmare of the Dark Star Bureau. From the branch to the headquarters, this is a topic that every member of the Dark Star Bureau is reluctant to mention.
Through the analysis of the files and Li Banfeng's understanding, Hulu Village is a special invisible space. Whether it is a dark dimension space is not yet certain. After all, the dark dimension space is only a type of invisible space. Li Banfeng is not too familiar with other types of invisible spaces.
The biggest feature of this invisible space is that it has a changeable entrance. Li Banfeng has also experienced this situation in Pro Province. The entrance to Fool City can be changed.
If this technology can be learned, not only can a secret laboratory be built for my wife, but even an unknown secret city can be built.
This is an important foundation!
This technology must be learned, and this Hulu Village must be found.
But why does such a strange invisible space appear in another state instead of Pro Province?
It was also because Hulu Village was in another state that Xiao Shen was so anxious about this matter that he gave full support to all of Li Banfeng's investigations.
According to the file records, from December to January of each year, that is, on the eve of the Lunar New Year, the entrance of Hulu Village will appear, which is what Shen Jingye said was open for business.
The specific manifestation of the entrance is that two to ten women with beautiful figures stand at the entrance of the invisible space to attract passers-by to enter the invisible space.
Women with beautiful figures.
Li Banfeng patted Jiuhulu: "Sister, do you really not know what's going on here?"
Jiuhulu sighed: "Brother, don't pat it, you've made me famous, sister I really don't know, or maybe I knew it before, but now I can't remember it. As long as sister remembers it, she will tell you. If you still want to pat it, you can change sides, don't always start on this side."
Since the contract with Yao Lao was terminated, Jiuhulu has been very loyal to Li Banfeng. If she knew the inside story, she would not fail to tell Li Banfeng.
Besides, this is originally the territory of another state. Jiuhulu is from Purozhou, so it is indeed not right to ask her.
Li Banfeng continued to check the files.
Last year, Hulu Village appeared in the north, causing 31 people to go missing, 25 of whom were men and 6 were women.
Women?
Were they deceived by a handsome guy?
There is no record of handsome guys in the files.
The year before last, Hulu Village appeared in the neighboring Minyue Province, causing 55 people to go missing, 17 of whom were women.
This ratio is even more exaggerated.
Why can a woman with a beautiful figure still attract so many women?
Li Banfeng continued to flip through the files. There was a question that had been bothering him: "Why is this place called Hulu Village? Is it because the girls standing at the entrance of the village have gourd-like figures? Even if that's the case, why not call it Hulu Store, Hulu Tower, or Hulu Garden?"
Tangyuan took out a document and said, "Because there are survivors."
"There are survivors in Hulu Village?"
'Yes, the name Hulu Village comes from the survivors' statement. "
"Why didn't you give me such important information earlier!" Li Banfeng took the file box.
Tangyuan stuck out his tongue: "In fact, the value of these materials is not too great. "
Li Banfeng opened a file. The survivor was Wu Nianping, a native of Yueguanle City, Minyue. He disappeared on December 16th of the previous year and returned home on January 21st.
Wu Nianping was a delivery man. According to his own and witnesses' description, he took a takeaway from a restaurant. While getting on the electric bike, he found two women at the door of the restaurant asking him to come in.
He thought there was something wrong with the takeaway, so he followed the women into the restaurant, and then found that there was a village inside the restaurant. The women told him that this was Hulu Village.
Tangyuan introduced: "Seventh Master, this is his only memory of Hulu Village. After identification, Wu Nianping suffered from severe mental illness due to severe shock. He was crazy and his memory was severely damaged-——."
Li Banfeng interrupted Tangyuan: "Having a mental illness does not mean that a person is crazy. You must be rigorous when speaking! ”
Tangyuan nodded and continued: "The other survivors are probably in the same situation. They can only say the name Hulu Village, and have not made any effective descriptions in other aspects."
Li Banfeng still carefully read the information of the survivors, and Tangyuan helped Li Banfeng analyze some key information.
Zhonger's investigation focus is not on these materials, but on the parties involved in the case.
The man who disappeared in the pharmacy is Zhang Peiwen, 26 years old, unemployed. Zhonger found a problem from his address: "Zhang Peiwen's address is only one street away from the pharmacy where the incident occurred. After buying the medicine, he can walk home in 15 minutes. He doesn't need to take a taxi."
Mijian disagreed: "Some people just don't like to walk. A 15-minute journey is not too close,
?
Zhong Er took out the confession transcript of the drugstore owner: "According to her description, Zhang Peiwen once waited for a long time in front of the drugstore for one dollar. He is an introverted and frugal person. He would not choose to take a taxi for a fifteen-minute journey."
Danbao frowned: "Too arbitrary, people are frugal, but it doesn't mean they don't know how to enjoy."
Zhong Er didn't say anything more. In terms of family conditions, he was far behind Dengbao. Zhong Er and Dengbao had obvious differences in their understanding of taking a taxi.
Li Banfeng has never considered this issue. During his student days, he basically had no experience of taking a taxi alone.
After checking the files all morning, in the afternoon, Li Banfeng decided to go to the person's home to have a look.
He brought glutinous rice balls, light bulbs, stars and middle school students to Zhang Peiwen's residence.
The community where Zhang Peiwen lives is on Disheng Road. The community was built at the end of the last century and has a staircase. Zhang Peiwen's family lives on the seventh floor.
Zhang Peiwen's father, Zhang Qinghai, was originally a worker. Later, due to an accident, he lost the ability to move his right leg and became disabled. He stayed at home for many years.
The mother, Ai Xiafen, is a middle school teacher. She retired five years ago due to health reasons. The couple's pension is the family's source of income.
It was his mother Ai Xiafen who opened the door, and Li Banfeng showed a forged ID.
This is a legally forged document, because the public knows nothing about the Dark Star Bureau, and Dark Star Bureau agents cannot reveal their true identities.
Ai Xiafen invited everyone into the house: "Comrade police, sit down quickly, my son————
Zhang Peiwen's father, Zhang Qinghai, came to Li Banfeng on crutches: "Is there any news about my son?"
Li Banfeng said: "Not yet. We are here mainly to do some research on you."
While talking, Li Banfeng looked at the layout of the house.
There are two bedrooms and one living room. The living room is relatively large, but the room is a bit small.
Because the house faces north, the light in the house is a bit dark.
Li Banfeng asked: "Which one is Zhang Peiwen's room?"
Zhang Qinghai pointed to the room on the right side of the corridor, and Li Banfeng took a look.
The decoration of the entire house is very simple, mainly made of wooden furniture. Only Zhang Peiwen's door is very distinctive.
Because this door is made of glass.
The second officer said to the two old men: "I want to go to the client's room to do some evidence collection."
Ai Shafen stood up and said, "I'll go with you. We will fully cooperate with your work."
Li Banfeng looked at Zhang Qinghai and said, "Then I will have some communication with you first."
Ai Xiafen sat back on the sofa: "Comrade policeman, you'd better tell me. Our old man is confused and can't understand anything."
When the second grader went to collect evidence, Li Banfeng asked what happened.
Tears welled up in Ai Shafen's eyes: "That day, at three o'clock in the afternoon, he went to the drugstore to buy me medicine.
In fact, I shouldn’t have gone that day, I should have gone the day before, but the pharmacy was not open the day before. If the pharmacy was open,
This won't happen anymore! "
At this point, Ai Shafen burst into tears.
"Auntie, please don't get excited. We are doing our best to investigate." Tangyuan comforted Ai Xiafen, and Ai Xiafen calmed down a little.
Li Banfeng asked: "You just said that you originally planned to buy medicine the day before, but because the pharmacy was closed, you postponed it for a day. But I see there are many pharmacies near your community, why do you have to go to that one to buy it?"
Ai Xiafen sighed: "I blame my poor health. There are several medicines that only that drugstore sells."
Li Banfeng said to Tangyuan: "Write down the medicine Ms. Ai needs to take later, and we can help purchase some."
"No, no," Ai Shafen shook her head repeatedly, "How dare I trouble you?"
Tangyuan smiled and said, "Don't worry, this is what we should do."
After asking for a long time, Ai Xiafen still refused to reveal the name of the medicine. She continued to tell what happened that afternoon:
"My son goes out to buy medicine at three o'clock, and comes back at half-past three every time. I am preparing to cook his favorite fried carrots at home...
"I want to find my son!" Zhang Qinghai stood up suddenly, leaning on a cane, "I want to find him right now!"
Tang Yuan tried to dissuade her, but Ai Xiafen shouted: "Lao Zhang, please stop making trouble, they are helping us find our son!"
Zhang Qinghai lowered his head and said nothing. Ai Xiafen said: "I waited until 3:40 that day and the child didn't come back. I was so anxious that I hurried to the drugstore to find him."
Li Banfeng asked: "Doesn't he have a mobile phone?"
Ai Xiafen sighed and said: "I'm not afraid of your jokes. My son is too stupid to study. He can't do anything except reading. He can't use a mobile phone or computer.
I found the pharmacy. The lady who ran the pharmacy said that she had finished buying the medicine and then left. I had always trusted this lady and didn’t take it seriously.
Later, when the police comrades went to investigate, I found out that this woman had lied to me. She saw my son standing at her door and she didn't tell me! She is not a serious person, and my son was harmed by her! "
Speaking of this, Ai Shafen cried even more sadly.
He didn't think there was much useful information he could get from Aixiafen.
The star was very knowledgeable and quickly handed the banknotes to Ai Xiafen.
Li Banfeng asked very seriously: "Ms. Ai, why do you think the drugstore owner wanted to harm your son?"
Tangyuan glanced at Li Banfeng. It was not like Master Qi had asked what he just said.
Ai Xiafen was obviously mentally stimulated because of her son's incident, and she spoke uncontrollably. How could she take such a thing seriously?
It is probably because the folk customs in Puozhou are different from those here, and Qi Ye is a little uncomfortable with it.
Ai Shafen replied: "I often buy medicine there. That woman must have thought our family was rich, so she wanted to kidnap my son and extort our money!"
Tangyuan shrugged her eyebrows at Li Banfeng, signaling Li Banfeng not to take it seriously. She had experienced a similar situation. Ai Xiafen suffered psychological trauma due to the disappearance of her son, and became suspicious of everyone and everything around her.
Li Banfeng continued to chat with Ai Xiafen. The second grader completed the evidence collection in the bedroom and opened the refrigerator.
Ai Xiafen didn't quite understand: "Is it necessary to collect evidence from the refrigerator?"
Zhong Er shook his head and said, "I'm thirsty. Let's see if there's anything to drink in the refrigerator."
Tangyuan frowned, and she felt blushing for Chuuji.
The star suppressed his smile. He really didn't understand what the middle two was thinking. At this time, looking for something in the refrigerator at home, isn't this a slap in the Dark Star Bureau's face?
But then again, the old couple didn't know that they were from the Dark Star Bureau.
Bulb felt that the situation was special and Zhong Er's idea was indeed a bit strange, but he was not someone who took advantage and would not do such a meaningless thing.
Li Banfeng also knew that the second grader had another purpose, but he still had to pretend to scold him: "What kind of work attitude do you have? Don't you have any sense of discipline?"
Ai Xiafen stood up quickly and said, "I am confused. There is no drink at home. I will pour you a cup of tea."
Li Banfeng stood up and said: "We have almost learned everything we need to know. It's time for us to leave. Ms. Ai, please take care of yourself."
Zhang Qinghai stood up again: "I want to find my son, I want to find my son!"
Ai Xiafen scolded her wife and sent Li Banfeng and the others out of the door.
The moment he arrived at the door, Li Banfeng heard the sound of the projector: "Director Qi, I'm going to breathe. The light and color of this house make me breathless."
After leaving the community, Li Banfeng went to the pharmacy and asked the proprietress what medicines Zhang Peiwen usually bought.
The star asked from the side: "Bureau Li, are we really going to help her buy medicine?"
Li Banfeng glared at the star: "Isn't this what we should do? Where is your sense of service?"
The star didn't dare to say anything. The boss's wife checked the account book and he wrote down the name of the medicine.
Li Banfeng didn't know much about medicines, so he asked Tangyuan to send the names of the medicines directly to the medical department.
Lightbulb 1: "Director, are you not buying her medicine? Are you checking her?"
Tang Yuan didn’t understand very well: “Why do you want to check her?”
Zhong Er said: "I think Bureau Li's idea is fine."
The star frowned: "Don't always talk about Bureau Li's ideas, don't always be a compliment, you can also tell me your thoughts?"
Zhong Er hesitated to speak. When everyone returned to the car, Sui Qijun, the chief of the medical department, gave a reply.
"Director Li, the names of the drugs you provided are relatively vague in terms of functions and indications. From these drugs, it is difficult to infer what kind of disease the person taking the drugs has."
"What kind of answer is this?" Li Banfeng was very dissatisfied. "The prescription is in front of you, but you still can't explain the symptoms clearly?"
Sui Qijun was a little embarrassed: "Director Li, I don't want to be too arbitrary in my answer, but based on what I know so far, the names of the drugs you provided cannot be considered drugs to be precise.
"What's it if it's not medicine? I saw these in pharmacies."
"These things should be regarded as health care products that have certain therapeutic effects, but the ingredients are relatively complex, the efficacy is difficult to determine, and the price is quite expensive."
Li Banfeng hung up the phone and was silent for a while.
The star said from the sidelines: "People can eat whatever they like, and we can't control it. But since it is a health product and not a necessary medicine, we don't have to buy medicine for them."
Bulb thought for a moment: "Section Chief Sui said these health care products are quite expensive. Considering the conditions at their home,
He doesn't look like a rich person either. "
Tangyuan said: "This is because you don't understand the situation. Many elderly people are very superstitious about health care products. Even if their families have no money, they will still find ways to buy some."
The second grader shook his head: "It's not that simple."
Li Banfeng looked at the second grader: "What evidence did you find just now?"
The star said: "I guess I won't find any valuable evidence in his house."
The second grader ignored the star and gave the evidence to Li Banfeng. Li Banfeng looked at the evidence and further confirmed his idea.
After returning to the bureau and going to the conference room, the second grader took out a plastic bag: "I had speculated that Zhang Peiwen would not be willing to take a taxi. I found this in the middle of his mattress."
Bulb took a look at the plastic bag and saw that there were coins of different denominations inside. The largest denomination was ten yuan, and there was only one. The rest included one yuan, five yuan coins, and many rare coins.
"This should be the change he had left to buy medicine." The star roughly counted the change and found that the change totaled more than one hundred yuan.
"Maybe they were leftovers from his grocery shopping." Zhong Er took out a schedule. "This schedule was posted on his desk. It took a lot of effort for me to pull it out."
Bulb took a look at the schedule and frowned.
On Monday, I get up at 7 a.m., go to the bathroom from 7:15 to 7:30, have breakfast from 7:30 to 8:00, take my dad for a walk in the community from 8 to 10 a.m., and go to the market to buy vegetables from 10 to 11 a.m. .
Cook with mom from 11 to 12, have lunch at 12, take lunch break from 12:30 to 2, watch TV from 2 to 3, buy medicine for mom from 3 to 3:30, 3:30 to 3:30 Watch TV at home until four o'clock.
I go to the market to buy vegetables from four to five o'clock, cook dinner with my mother from five to six o'clock, clean from six-thirty to seven-thirty, do laundry from seven-thirty to eight-thirty, and go to bed at eight-thirty.
Tang Yuan looked at the change in the plastic bag and said to Li Banfeng: "Director, I still reserve my opinion on the matter of taking a taxi. I think the taxi driver did not lie. Zhang Peiwen is just a frugal person, but he is not It means he doesn’t have the ability to spend.”
Zhong Er shook his head and said: "If he had the spending power, he would never spend money in a taxi. You can see from the schedule that every Wednesday afternoon, his mother will sort out the shopping receipts with him. These small changes, Ai Xiafen also wants to settle accounts with him. "
Tangyuan has already seen the schedule: "This schedule can't explain anything. Maybe it's just because his family has a strong sense of time. Everyone has a different way of living and everyone has different pursuits. We can't use our Treat others by your own standards.”
The second grader took out a flyer: "This is a flyer found in Zhang Peiwen's pillow. It's a sales flyer for smart phones. The cheapest phone on it is only 628 yuan. He bought it at 628 yuan." There are many circles drawn on the number eighteen. If he has the spending power, he will definitely pursue this mobile phone, not a taxi! "
The star said: "I didn't say that he definitely wanted to take a taxi. The driver said that Zhang Peiwen kept looking at him at that time. He thought Zhang Peiwen wanted to take a taxi, so there was a misunderstanding."
"There can be no such misunderstanding!" Zhong Er shook his head repeatedly, "I never dare to stare at the taxi when I have no money to take a taxi. I think you all must have had a similar experience."
Bulb smiled and said: "That's not necessarily true, I dare to look at it."
Li Banfeng asked Bulb: "When was the last time you took a taxi? You had a car as soon as you graduated."
"Maybe -----" Some of the situation can already be seen, but Tangyuan is still trying to defend Ai Xiafen, "As a mother, there may be problems with the way she treats her children, but this does not deny her With the care of her children, I saw the ingredients in the kitchen. She prepared her children’s favorite fried carrots, and she was still waiting for her children to come back.”
"Fried carrots," Zhong Er looked at Li Banfeng, "Li Bureau, do you still remember Zhang Qinghai's reaction when he mentioned carrots?"
Li Banfeng was very impressed by this scene: "He wanted to find his son, and his reaction was very violent. He wanted to rush out of the house."
"He does want to rush out of the house, but not necessarily to find his son. He probably doesn't want to eat carrots anymore. He wants to escape from this home." The second grader took out a stack of small tickets, "This is this month, They buy food receipts from the supermarket, and their family buys carrots every day.
I opened his refrigerator. There were several plates of fried carrots and a lot of carrots inside. Who could tolerate eating carrots in this way? How could Zhang Peiwen be willing to eat carrots?
This is Zhang Peiwen's life. He eats the same food and does the same things every day. Every move is under Ai Xiafen's surveillance and control. Even his door is transparent. "
Tangyuan was silent for a long time. She really couldn't understand why such a family relationship existed: "If Zhang Peiwen was willing to find a job by himself and support himself with his own income, he wouldn't have to be subject to so much control."
The second grader picked up the schedule: "Captain You, you also heard Ai Xiafen's description. He went out to buy medicine at three o'clock. If he didn't come back at 3:40, Ai Xiafen would go to the drugstore to find him. The time margin left for Zhang Peiwen was no more than ten minutes. He couldn't even go buy groceries directly after returning from the pharmacy. He had to stay at home for half an hour before going to buy groceries.
With this level of control, do you think Zhang Peiwen can find a job? Will Aishafen allow him to find a job? "
Tangyuan was silent.
The second grader sorted out the evidence: "Captain You, the environment in which you grew up is different, which leads to a different perception of things. This situation has happened to people I know, and I am not surprised by the results of this investigation. ,
But on one point, we reached a consensus, and I felt there was no need to investigate the taxi driver anymore. "
Bulb was stunned: "What's this? We've been talking for a long time, isn't it just to confirm the taxi driver's suspicions? Now that the suspicions have been found, you say you won't investigate?"
The second grader shook his head: "What are he doing to find out? Rescue Zhang Peiwen? For Zhang Peiwen, going anywhere is better than staying at home. Instead of dragging him back into the pit of fire, we might as well do other useful things."
Tangyuan disagreed: "One case cannot replace the whole situation. Once Hulu Village is opened, many people will disappear. The situation of these people is different from Zhang Peiwen."
This time, Zhong Er didn't say anything. Everyone looked at Li Banfeng. He had to make the final decision on this matter.
Li Banfeng is thinking about an important question: "What is Hulu Village like? Do you want to see it?"
PS: Happy National Day.
