Chapter 1055 Policewoman 136 (2)

Team Leader Huang didn't mention that he had received a tip from Xiao Zhang on the way and rushed here. He just smiled calmly and said, "We were just visiting people in the vicinity, so we just happened to be passing by."

Captain Qian chuckled. Didn't he know, incidentally? Sure enough, these police officers from Jiangning were all cunning. Looking around, Xiao Lu was the most likable, and didn't care about who got the credit.

The rest, one by one, knew they were about to make a contribution, and they were scrambling for it faster than anyone else.

The on-site investigation team from Luoxia District Bureau was very efficient. Tan You waited outside for almost an hour before they came out and said, "There's a house inside. We can detect bloodstains on the walls, but they're covered up. We need to remove the plaster to extract the bloodstains."

"This is no small job."

Captain Qian was at a loss. Someone was watching Qi Jiantao at the restaurant, but if the investigation here didn't yield any concrete evidence, the suspect might implicate others...

After thinking it over, Captain Qian said, "Let's confirm it as soon as possible, as much as we can."

Seeing Captain Qian's headache, Old Huang suggested, "Why don't we let Xiao Lu go in and take a look? Xiao Lu always manages to find new clues."

"Xiao Lu, don't you think so?"

Tan You, who was staring at the crowd, suddenly snapped back to reality; "What?"

Old Huang repeated himself, and Tan You nodded slightly, "Then I'll go in and take a look. I can't guarantee whether I'll find any new clues."

As she said this, Tan You glanced at a certain boy in the crowd. Just before going in, Tan You whispered a few words to Xiao Liu. Xiao Liu stiffened, subconsciously glanced at the crowd, and then quickly walked to Lao Huang's side.

Old Huang asked in confusion, "What is it?"

Xiao Liu casually guided Lao Huang to look towards a certain spot in the crowd: "Captain Lu said that the boy's face shape is very similar to Qi Jiantao's, and he looks very uneasy. Captain Lu suspects that he has a relationship with Qi Jiantao."

Old Huang suddenly opened his eyes, his gaze fixed like a hawk on the boy who was staring at the police officer. Just as Xiao Liu had said, the boy's eyes didn't hold the usual curiosity, but rather an undisguised tension and worry.

What was he worried about? Was he worried that Qi Jiantao would be arrested? Old Huang waved his hand, and Xiao Liu and Shunzi immediately rushed out. In less than a minute, the boy was brought in front of everyone.

Team Leader Qian asked in confusion, "Old Huang, what's this...?"

Old Huang: "Xiao Lu said he looks a lot like Qi Jiantao, do you think so?"

Captain Qian stared at the other person for a while, then looked at the officer next to him: "Does it look like him?"

Team Leader Zhang carefully recalled Qi Jiantao's appearance, and after a long time said, "The face shape is very similar, and the eyes are similar too. This kid has a white forehead, almost exactly like Qi Jiantao."

Captain Qian waved his hand: "Then handcuff him first, and while you're at it, send two people to ask him which family he belongs to?"

He recalled the information Zhang had just inquired about: on the surface, Qi Jiantao was unmarried and childless, but now there was a boy in his village who looked somewhat like him. Of course, Captain Qian did not think this was a coincidence.

Team Leader Zhang and the officers remaining outside quickly learned the boy's background: he was adopted by a couple in the village, and the adoption was arranged by Qi Jiantao seven years ago.

Team Leader Zhang understood. "When we get back, have him and Qi Jiantao do a DNA test."

The police officer next to him nodded in agreement, and at that moment Tan You came out from inside.

As she took off her gloves, she said, "We're pretty sure it's a murder scene inside, but we're waiting for the lab results for a few people's blood. The killer is very cautious; he repainted the room after each murder."

“To determine how many murders there are, we need to peel off the layers of plaster from the wall and collect samples.” “Also, I saw a somewhat blurry left handprint on the wall.” Tan You said, glancing at the handcuffed boy: “Judging from the shape and size, it should be him. His left ring finger is shorter than normal.”

Upon hearing this, Captain Qian's eyes gradually widened. "It seems this kid is involved more deeply than we thought."

Tan You: "I don't know, but I smelled blood on him."

She took a deep breath and said, "It even smells like cats and dogs. Are you abusing animals?"

Old Huang waved his hand: "Send a few men to his house and check."

In the crowd, the boy's adoptive parents' legs gave way, and they immediately sat down on the ground. But no one paid attention to their feelings at that moment; they all followed the police officers.

Captain Qian made a phone call: "Old Qin, you guys call it a day and take Qi Jiantao to the district bureau."

It has been confirmed that a murder occurred at Qi Jiantao's residence. As the homeowner, Qi Jiantao should at least go to the district police station to explain himself. Whether he can be released depends on whether he can provide a satisfactory answer to the public.

At the Luoxia District Police Station, while Captain Qian was interrogating Qi Jiantao overnight, Tan You and the other officers were... eating roast duck.

The roast duck has a golden-red, crispy skin. When you bite into it, the oil sizzles and drips out. Dip it in a little white sugar, and the taste is exactly what the police officers who work overtime late into the night to solve cases need.

Tan You was enjoying a bowl of old duck soup when Lao Huang sat down beside her, rolling up some duck skin as he asked, "The case has made great progress. Are you staying here or going back?"

Tan You thought of Jiang Ning's current situation: "There are no cases to solve when we go back. Are we supposed to treat everyone to meals every day?"

Old Huang said calmly, "There are always cases to solve. I've almost finished negotiating with my team. Do you remember the forensic doctor Wei from Nanjiang?"

Tan You thought of the short, chubby forensic doctor Wei: "I remember, he encountered a case?"

Old Huang wrapped the pancake up and then dipped it heavily in sweet bean sauce: "Old Wei asked for their captain. Who told him to work with you on a case before? Nanjiang is quite wealthy."

Tan You understood: "I have no problem, I'll go wherever the leader tells me to go. But do you think Luoxia will let us leave so easily? I've seen their archives, and they have quite a few backlogged cases."

"Some of them I saw I could do."

Old Huang snorted: "They're a bit stingy here, and they don't act with generosity."

Tan You understood: "Okay, then I'll listen to Team Leader Huang. Wherever you go, I'll go."

Old Huang was delighted by her compliment: "Okay, I'll contact Old Wei later. This is, after all, another province, and our relationships aren't here. It's inevitable that there will be constraints when we're out doing business."

“When we get back to our hometown, it will be so much more comfortable. We’ll get money and people whenever we need them. Why would we need to stay in hotels every day? They won’t even reimburse us.”

"Well..." Tan You said something from the heart: "The room rate for the place I'm staying is too high and doesn't meet the district bureau's reimbursement standards, but I can't just make myself suffer if I want them to reimburse me, can I?"

Old Huang was still somewhat unhappy: "We help them with their cases, but we end up losing money ourselves. We can't do this kind of losing business."

Tan You chuckled and shook her head, not bothering to argue with Lao Huang. Just as she had said, she would go wherever the boss told her to go.
