This street entrance is only four or five hundred meters away from the KTV of Evernight Palace. Yan Xiu simply found a place and stopped him severely. Then he greeted the traffic police brigade and returned to the original place. It took ten minutes.

"What's the matter with you?" Yan Xiu stood in front of Jiang Ting and raised his chin, "What about that girlfriend, it's okay to let you run around alone?"

Jiang Ting's complexion is still not very good, but that is because of the lack of blood and blood in the bed for a long time. He smiled after hearing this: "The doctor told me to walk around, Yang Mei went out, and I went out on my own."

Yan Xi stretched out his hand to help, but Jiang Ting signaled that he would not use it, so he took it back and lit a cigarette, "Do you mind?"

Jiang Ting asked: "Can you give me one?"

Yan Xiu was a little surprised. He had few non-smokers, but for some reason, he subconsciously felt that Jiang Ting was one of them, probably because he was deceived by the gentleman's appearance.

"Thank you," Jiang Ting took the cigarette and lit it, and he took a long breath: "Thanks to Officer Yan just now, I'm really sorry. The car repair fee..."

Yan Xiu said: "Come on, I'm a bus! Go back and report the damage and it's over."

Jiang Ting glanced at him from the white mist of cigarettes, which meant that he probably didn't expect the Jianning police car to be so high-end. Yan Xiu laughed at him without explaining, and said: "It just happens that there are some doubts about the case. I'm going to re-examine the scene and take you back by the way. What happened just now? I stood motionless in the middle of the road and was frightened. Nothing?"

Jiang Ting hesitated for a moment: "Just now... I saw a car accident a little bit. Maybe some post-traumatic stress reaction."

"Oh, then you dare to come out alone."

Jiang Ting said: "Always learn to walk alone, or else you won't be a waste person?"

He walked very slowly, and Yan Xiu didn't urge them. The two of them walked slowly down the sidewalk, and the neon lights of the KYV of the Palace of Lights gleamed in front of them. Yan Xiu pointed at a cigarette **** that was about to burn, teasing: "You have such an infatuated and rich girlfriend, but it's much better than our dead wages. I'm afraid of becoming a useless person."

Jiang Ting shook his head helplessly, before listening to Yan Xiu and then asked very naturally: "How do you know each other?"

Vice-Yan's idioms are not covered, dare to wait here.

"We also came out of the county to work in the early years. After spending a few years in Gongzhou, I made some money and went back to my hometown. She came to Jianning from Gongzhou to open this KTV. She said she was more daring than me. , The business in the store is getting better and better. Three years ago, when she asked me to go to Jianning to help, I had a car accident on the road."

"How did it come out?"

"It was raining and speeding, and I almost died." Jiang Ting sighed: "I said it was a girlfriend, but I am like this, it is not easy to make people tired, is it?"

Yan Xi immediately agreed: "That is. What should you do in the future, just drag it?"

"After a while, it will be divided," Jiang Ting said with a smile, "I can't help much if I stay here. I will go back to the county to live."

KTV was temporarily closed due to the scene of the murder case, and the door was deserted. The two entered the door while talking, and when they looked up, they saw Yang Mei eagerly waiting in front of the bar: "Brother Jiang!"

Jiang Ting: "Oh, I..."

Yang Mei's eyes full of joy almost flew out: "Oh, it scares me, where did you go, Brother Jiang? Why don't you say hello? How can you walk alone with so many cars outside?"

Jiang Ting: "..."

"I've been waiting for you for a long time, why didn't I call my phone without answering? What about Xiao Zhang, why didn't Xiao Zhang go out with you? What if something happens? Hurry, sit down, you have eaten so late Did you eat something? Hey, the foreman, come over and tell the kitchen to bring the steamed egg custard I just ordered!"

Jiang Ting: "…………"

Yan Xi raised his eyebrows, smiling.

Yang Mei just kept spinning around him, Jiang Ting had to deal with it in a hurry, and talked about the encounter with Yan Xi on the road just now. Yang Mei was immediately grateful to Officer Yan, and while pushing Jiang Ting to urge him to go upstairs for dinner, she insisted on doing something herself and asking Yan Xiu to eat out.

"No, I'll take a look at the scene, and I will rush back to the city bureau later." Yan Xiu smiled and said: "You are busy, just call a waiter to take me to the kitchen."

Yang Mei immediately put down her bag and shoes: "How can I be busy? Come, I'll take you there. After the cordon was placed here yesterday, I asked someone to block the back kitchen, not to say Do you cooperate with the police? I have repeatedly ordered the waiters not to go outside and talk nonsense, for fear of leaking the secrets of your police handling the case."

Yan Xi put on shoe covers and gloves: "No, you don't know any secrets anyway."

Yang Mei stood at the door of the back kitchen and smiled.

Heavy makeup makes people unable to tell her age, but her facial features are beautiful, and she even sprays some perfume on her delicate curls. Yan Xiu has never seen a woman dressed up like this downstairs in her own home. , The only explanation is that she knew Jiang Ting would come back.

Yan Xi found it interesting.

This woman is very flexible, can talk, and has a long-term sleekness in her dealings. And her fiance, who is said to be born in a small county, not only can only work and is physically weak, but also has been bedridden for several years and has almost no labor.

From that point of view, the two are very unmatched, but when Yang Mei faced him, she naturally looked up.

Yan Xi’s eyes fell on the freezer, and instantly recalled the clip of giving Jiang Ting a cigarette just now—the latter took it, lowered his head slightly, and the silhouette of his neck curled into an elegant arc, lit with the lighter in his hand. After the smoke, let out a breath.

That seems to be an action that is very accustomed to being respected by others.

Yan Xiu opened the freezer door and asked casually: "You have a good relationship with your boyfriend?"

Yang Mei smiled and tacitly agreed.

"How did you meet?"

"In the early years, we came out of the county to work together. After spending a few years in Gongzhou, he went back to his hometown. Later, I opened this shop in Jianning, and the business got bigger and bigger, so I wanted him to help. Thinking that there was a car accident on the way." Yang Mei sighed with emotion: "Speaking of which, he is also my responsibility now!"

Yan Xi also shook his head sighfully, closed the freezer door, and walked through the kitchen to the back door.

"You are..."

"Ah, I'll take a look on the road, so I don't need to follow along." Yan Xi waved his hand without looking back, "You can go ahead."

There are no people in the dirty and narrow back alley. KTV is closed today, and it looks even more deserted. Yesterday, the technical investigator was digging three feet back and forth here, and even the trash can was turned upside down. Basically, there was no resurvey value.

Yan Xi dialed a number on the phone, and walked out along the path of the dead in the surveillance video: "Hey, Ma Xiang, have you returned to the team? Log on to the intranet to help me check the person."

There is a mess on the phone. It should be the technical detective working overtime. Ma Xiang asked in a loud voice: "Okay-who to check?"

"Lu Chengjiang." Yan Xiu said, "it was the one who was in a wheelchair at the scene last night. Check his hometown, graduation school, working experience, and check the house opening records if there are any."

"Why, this person is suspected?"

"I can't see it temporarily, check it first."

Ma Xiang’s greatest benefit is his quickness. Yan Xi walked out of the back alleys, patrolling the empty trails back and forth, and walking down the road while searching and searching. After a while, he just listened to the phone and said: "Yes-Lu Chengjiang , The hometown information is the same as in the transcript last night, college degree, spent a few years in Gongzhou, and watched the scene in the nightclub with the guy named Yang Mei."

Yan Xi took a halt, obviously very surprised, "Are you sure it's the same person?"

"OK, it's written on the household registration website."

"...what happened afterwards?" Yan Xiu asked.

"Later, Yang Mei was involved in a few cases of gathering gambling and fighting in the nightclub. For the details, please check the case file of Gongzhou. But she was lucky. One case was withdrawn for deliberate injury and the other stayed. Gambling is released on bail pending trial, let me see... oh, yes, it is estimated that the money has not been spent less, it is not easy to release bail pending trial in Gongzhou."

Yan Xiu asked: "Where is Lu Chengjiang?"

"She went back to her hometown when she was first suspected of deliberate injury. It seems that the two of them don't seem to be so affectionate and righteous."

Yan Xiu lit another cigarette, following the footsteps of the deceased last night, staring thoughtfully at the pattern of the sidewalk tiles.

"Then Lu Chengjiang had to go to his hometown for investigation, but the car accident three years ago was the same as he said. Yang Mei, after the second bail pending trial, he came to Jianning and took down this KTV. , Because the property contract also fought a lawsuit with the original landlord, and it was won again soon. I went to Brother Yan, this woman either has a backer on top of her or her life is rich, and can she alleviate the danger every time?"

The sky gradually dimmed, and the street lights turned on one after another. Yan Xi retracted his gaze from a distance. Suddenly, a few steps away, something flashed across the sewer ditch.

At first, Yan Xiu didn't pay attention. A few seconds later, a certain intuition formed by the frontline criminal investigation work for more than ten years suddenly tapped in his mind.

"Brother Yan?"

"...wait."

Yan Xiu stepped forward and squatted down, only to see a bright little thing lying quietly in the dust at the corner of the sidewalk and the one-way street——

Zipper sliding wedge head.

Yan Xi picked it up with two fingers, looked at the small piece of metal half wrapped in leather, and narrowed his eyes.

"Why, brother Yan, there is a discovery during the on-site re-survey?"

"Check the case file of Yang Mei's lawsuit in Jianning later, and let the technical investigator stay in the office." Yan Xiu stood up, put the zipper puller into the evidence bag, and said, "I will return to the city bureau in half an hour. There are major discoveries at the scene, which will become breakthrough clues if verified."

"Good!"

Yan Xi hung up the phone, turned around, and stopped instantly.

Not far from the back alley, Jiang Ting stood quietly under a street lamp, carrying a large plastic bag for takeout in his hand.

The two looked at each other for a long while, the sound of cars on the street in the distance was close and far away, and the moth hit the street lamp, making a slight pop.

Jiang Ting stepped forward and handed the still hot plastic bag to Yan Xiu's hand, softly and authentically:

"Officer Yan, don't eat too late."

His gaze glided over the sliding wedge of the zipper in the transparent evidence bag, and then his fingertips touched Yan Xi's hand.

The two stood facing each other, less than half a foot apart. Yan Xi saw his reflection in Jiang Ting's light-colored pupils, and then realized that his jaw muscles were so tight that he showed his instinct as if he was facing an enemy.

But this is actually very strange.

The person in front of him was so sick that he couldn't hide his face, which was too far away from the word threat.

"...I know." Yan Xiu stepped back, lowering his face like a cover, and nodding: "Thank you."

Jiang Ting stood on the spot with his sleeved arms, smiling and nodding, watching Yan Xiu turn around and walk away under the street light.

The sound of high heels hitting the ground came from the alley. Yang Mei stopped behind Jiang Ting, watching Yan Xi disappear at the end of the road, and looked at Jiang Ting worriedly: "Are you going to help him investigate this case?"

The stream of warm water between Jiang Ting's eyebrows and eyes is gone, and the tone is flat: "If the case is not solved, the police's attention will not be withdrawn. Do you want to be watched by the police for several months?"

"...That," Yang Mei stopped talking, and then asked: "Then how do you want to check?"

Jiang Ting lowered his eyes and didn't answer immediately, as if he was thinking about something.

Wrapped in a thin shawl, Yang Mei looked up and looked up at the faint yellow light of the street lamp spreading on Jiang Ting's hair and side cheeks, like a layer of delicate light gold tulle.

No matter how many years have passed, Jiang Ting in Yang Mei's eyes is no different from when he first saw it. The years of displacement and the hardship of surviving death did not deprive him of the overwhelming prudence that was sufficient to face any situation.

"Zipper," Jiang Ting murmured.

Yang Mei looked at him without blinking.

Jiang stopped suddenly raised his eyes: "Do you have anything you want to sell to second-hand stores?"

Yang Mei: "Second-hand store?"

·

"Fendi?" Ma Xiang took the zipper in the evidence bag, shone at the light, and said in amazement.

Yan Xi snortingly ate the takeaway eel rice: "Uh-huh."

The upper part of the zipper puller is black sheepskin, the edge is wrapped with yellow oil, and the lower part of the metal is ironed with the FENDI text LOGO. The whole is still very new, but the small ring buckle interface connecting the tail and the sliding wedge is loose. It should be pulled off by pulling it hard or hanging it.

Ma Xiang is a little puzzled: "What can this prove?"

Yan Xi squeezed the greasy chopsticks in one hand, pushed the computer screen on the desk to an angle, and motioned him to look at the official website of FENDI.

Ma Xiang: "What?"

"The color zipper with the butter edge of the black sheepskin bag is basically only used on their new men's shoulders this season. If you see it, this is this one." Yan Xi ordered one of them with his chopsticks The picture, click to enlarge, and said: "Since the seasonal models have just been released, sales are limited, and luxury stores will record customer information, I have sent a group of people to the IFC store to obtain surveillance video. Up."

Ma Xiang said: "Fuck, this is fine too?!"

"Whether it's okay is just a trip. If you make a wrong bet, you won't lose anything. What about Yang Mei's case file that I asked you to check?"

Ma Xiang was stunned, and it took a while to react, and quickly put the kraft paper bag with both hands.

Yan Xi leaned back in his chair, opened the case file and began to look through it. Ma Xiang immediately picked up an eel and put it in his mouth. It was so delicious that his eyes burst into tears.

The case of Yang Mei is not complicated. In essence, the original shop owner suddenly raised the price and broke the contract before signing. Yang Mei sued the other party in a rage. But because of the loopholes in the contract and the imperfect procedures, she is very likely to lose the lawsuit and be dragged into the lengthy and complicated appeal procedure; from the perspective of Yan Xiu's half of an insider, Yang Mei is best in court. Withdraw the lawsuit and admit it, otherwise it is likely to delay the business and lose a lot of money.

But she won.

It has nothing to do with the lawyer. At least Yan Xiu didn't think the lawyer was anything to use after reading the trial records. The only explanation is that the judge fell in love with Yang Mei's peerless beauty in court.

Or, just like this woman miraculously escaped from prison twice in Gongzhou, someone who was aloof and hidden behind the fog again helped her.

Ma Xiang sneaked up to the eel for the third time, and was immediately knocked on the back of his hand by Yan Xiu with a chopstick like lightning: "Ouch!"

"Two packs of instant noodles are not enough for you? Be careful to repeat the tragedy of Mr. Gou next door, his figure is added by his mother's daily meals!"

Ma Xiang felt very aggrieved: "Our people work overtime every day with instant noodles. It's best to cook the hot pot. As a leader, you don't need to take the lead. You are still making a capitalist focus here?"

Yan Xiu hummed: "The little stove I bought for beauty, if you have the ability, you can lie to it."

Ma Xiang: "What? The KTV proprietress really likes your handsome face?!"

Yan Xiu: "..."

"I said yesterday that she didn't look at you right! She kept wandering on your strong pectoral muscles and biceps! How can her weak, white-faced boyfriend compare to your male hormones, Yan Gonu Power, it's up to you whether our brother can sing free K in the future!..."

Yan Xiu said angrily: "Hurry up, don't force my biceps, do you want to be told that we are a pair?!"

Ma Xiang immediately felt tenderly: "Give me eel rice, I can serve it for ten minutes..."

Yan Xi abruptly kicked him off the table, and the latter said that his pink glass heart was broken. The phone rang when there was a noise, Yan Xi covered the eel rice with one hand and answered the phone with one hand: "Hello? I'm Yan Xi, please tell me if you have something."

"Brother Yan, we found surveillance at the International Finance Center! In mid-April, the deceased went to the FENDI store and bought the men's backpack you mentioned. The price is 18,000. It is paid in cash, with high-definition images and The sales records are all brought up!"

Ma Xiang, a straight man who has never seen the world, his eyes were round on the spot, and his face was written with what, eighteen thousand? !

Yan Xi exaggerated: "Clean. Has the identity information left by the deceased come out?"

"Yes, yes," she turned over on the phone for a while, probably looking for an ID card. After a while, her voice sounded again: "This is this--named Chu Ci, Compassionate Ci."
