"Who would come to see you so late?" Mu Yu followed Rong Jian.
"It should be someone who has clues to provide." Rong Jian guessed, and this was what he expected in his heart.
"Could it be that Gong Lilan got your contact information from a neighbor and came here to find you?"
Rong Jian's steps suddenly froze, but then he returned to normal: "It's definitely not her. When she takes Duoduo away, Duoduo will definitely tell her that she has met you, and she will definitely be able to guess your true identity. If you want to contact the police, she should contact you first."
Thinking that what he said made sense, and thinking that he was about to see this person who came to see Rong Jian, Mu Yu didn't waste any time guessing.
Seeing Qin Jinhuan following behind, she immediately turned around and persuaded him to go back to the room first: "This is your territory, it's very safe, not to mention Captain Rong is here. Just leave me alone and go back to rest first."
She knew her safety was his biggest concern.
Qin Jinhuan looked around, stopped, gave her a few words, and told Huang Bo to follow, and then left with Bian Zijun.
Mu Yu followed Rong Jian to the hall and saw Zou Yongqing and a woman of his age sitting on the sofa in the corner, whispering to each other from a distance.
"Boss Zou?"
"Captain Rong." Zou Yongqing stood up quickly and introduced the woman beside him to Rong Jian, "This is my lover Xiao Aiju. She has some things she wants to tell you, but she just doesn't know if it will be helpful to your investigation."
"Thank you, thank you. It's hard work for you to come here so late." Their daughter-in-law gave birth to a baby at night. She must be very busy at home, but she still thinks about assisting the police in handling the case. This moved Rong Jian very much and he sincerely expressed his gratitude to them. He bowed and thanked her profusely.
"It should, it should." Zou Yongqing was still as enthusiastic as before, and after speaking, he turned to Xiao Aiju, "This is Captain Rong from Ancheng. If you have anything to say, just tell Captain Rong."
"Wait, let's go in and talk." Rong Jian then took them into the VIP reception room on one side and told the lobby manager, "Anyone who comes to see me in the future will be arranged to sit here."
"Okay, okay."
The lobby manager nodded repeatedly and diligently set up chairs for them, poured tea and snacks. After everything was ready, he immediately walked out and left the space for them.
"I wonder what you know about the situation? Please tell me." Rong Jian looked at Xiao Aiju with some eagerness.
"Hello, Captain Rong, it's like this, um... Lao Zou said that you need to know about the clerk in Boss Zhao's supermarket. His clerks change frequently. His supermarket is just downstairs from me. I used to go there often. that… "
Zou Yongqing was not used to hearing this, so he frowned and interrupted his wife in Huacheng dialect: "Can you stop talking about the old one? It sounds really awkward."
Xiao Jinju glared at him, then looked at Rong Jian and Mu Yu with an apologetic look, explaining in broken Mandarin: "Sorry, I don't speak Mandarin very well, so I always stutter."
Rong Jian quickly waved his hand: "It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter. I can understand some Huacheng dialect. Or, you can use Huacheng dialect. If I don't understand, ask Boss Zou to translate."
"That's OK." Xiao Jinju breathed a sigh of relief, and became very fluent when speaking in Huacheng dialect again, "I have to roll my tongue to speak Mandarin, but my big tongue can't roll it. It's really awkward to speak, but it's still Huacheng dialect. I can speak urban dialect smoothly. Speaking of Boss Zhao’s shop assistants, I have a deep impression on some of them. I can still remember their names: Qiuhua, Juanzi, Yuanyuan, Yuxin, and Xiaoxia. inside year
The oldest one was thirty-six years old at that time. "
"How do you know her age? Do you still remember her so clearly?" Mu Yu interjected softly.
"It's a coincidence that I went to the supermarket to buy longevity noodles that day, and I casually mentioned to Qiuhua that my birthday is tomorrow. I didn't expect that she would have a birthday on the same day as me, but she is just one round younger than me. Qiuhua especially likes to chat. No matter which customer came to buy something, she would always chat with them. Because of this, she was fired by Boss Zhao after less than two months on the job. When she was fired, she had a quarrel with Boss Zhao over her salary. ”
Because Qiu Hua was old and did not fit the characteristics of the person they were looking for, Mu Yu and Rong Jian did not ask any more questions, but just sat down and took notes while quietly listening to Xiao Jinju's introduction.
"Compared to Qiuhua, Juanzi and Yuanyuan are younger. They were both in their early twenties when they came to work. Both girls are very beautiful."
When they heard that they were only in their early twenties, Mu Yu and Rong Jian immediately pricked up their ears.
"They all like to dress up very much. Whenever they have free time, they will smear their faces in front of the small mirror. Young men often come to the supermarket to look for them with roses in their hands. Especially Yuanyuan, who sometimes comes several times a day. Boss Zhao She looked very disgusted, so I fired her after less than a month. Later, I found out that these two little girls were from Huacheng. Their families were in good condition and they loved to play. Their parents wanted to let them know how hard it was to make money, so they gave her a job. They found a job in a supermarket. They didn’t expect the money to work in the supermarket, so they didn’t care if they didn’t get a penny when they were fired.”
"What about Yu Xin and Xiao Xia?" Mu Yu asked.
"Yuxin is a college student. I don't know her last name. She works a summer job, so her salary is relatively low. I don't know if it is for this reason, but Boss Zhao doesn't make things difficult for her. Yu Xin left before school started, and Xiao Xia said no. By the way, Xiaoxia is the last clerk in Boss Zhao’s supermarket that I know, and the one who has worked in his store for the longest time.”
These words once again cheered up Mu Yu and Rong Jianlin, and Rong Jian immediately asked a series of questions: "Is Xiaoxia's surname Xia? What is her full name? How old are you? What do you look like? Do you know where you are from?"
"I don't know if Xiaoxia's surname is Xia. Anyway, Boss Zhao and his wife call her Xiaoxia. She was about eighteen or nineteen years old at the time. She was very thin and a little dark, but she had very good features, especially her big eyes. , looks like a black grape, and has a very pretty smile. If she were fatter and whiter, she would definitely be prettier than any big star. Not only is this girl good-looking, she is also simple and hard-working. It’s a pity that she has no education and has only been in school. Elementary school, if her education level were higher, I would definitely ask her to be my daughter-in-law.”
Seeing that the girl accepted what Xiao Jinju said about Xiao Xia's characteristics and what Xiao Jing said, Mu Yu became more energetic and interjected to verify: "Does Xiao Xia like to wear ponytails?"
"Yes, yes. Hey! Do you also know Xiaoxia?"
Mu Yu did not answer the question and asked: "Do you know where she is from? Do you have any relatives at home?"
"I don't know where she is from. I haven't asked. I don't know if she has any relatives in her family."
Mu Yu was immediately disappointed: "Didn't you still think about asking her to be your daughter-in-law? Why didn't you even inquire about her family background?"
Zou Yongqing interrupted with a smile: "It's not that she doesn't inquire, it's that this girl doesn't like to talk."
"It's not that I don't like to talk," Xiao Jinju explained with a smile, "It's just because I can't speak Mandarin, and when I speak, I speak with a local accent. I'm afraid that others will laugh at me, so I try not to speak if I can, just like when others speak to me in Mandarin, I I can’t speak Mandarin,
I stutter when I speak, so I am afraid of others speaking Mandarin to me. "
"Do you know where her accent is from?" Rong Jian asked.
Xiao Jinju and Zou Yongqing looked at each other, and then they both shook their heads.
"If you heard similar accents again, would you be able to tell them apart?"
Xiao Jinju and Zou Yongqing looked at each other again, and then Zou Yongqing responded very carefully: "Both of us have bad memories, so we don't dare to vouch for what happened six years ago. If we make a mistake and cause trouble for you in handling the case, we can I can’t take responsibility.”
Obviously he understood what Rong Jian meant by what he said.
Knowing their psychological pressure, Rong Jian thought for a while and did not force himself. He asked some more questions about Xiao Xia. Seeing that they were all indifferent answers, he knew that he would not be able to ask any more questions. After thanking him, he ordered Liu Xiaofan to They were delivered home safely.
"Captain Rong, it seems that Xiaoxia is the girl we are looking for! What should we do now?" Mu Yu asked Rong Jian after Zou Yongqing left.
Rong Jian wrote in the notebook and replied: "Xiao Xia is only eighteen or nineteen years old. Generally speaking, parents would not be willing to let such a young girl go to work in a far away place. Plus, she speaks with a local accent. Boss Zou and his wife didn’t have any trouble listening to her in Mandarin, so I guess she comes from a small county near Huacheng. Based on the information we have now, it shouldn’t be difficult to find her.”
As he spoke, he circled a few key words in his notebook: "surrounding counties," "girl," "eighteen or nineteen years old," "six years ago," "death," and "summer."
Mu Yu was very excited when he heard this: "Captain Rong, it seems that we can solve the case soon."
"Well. Sister-in-law, you should go back and rest first. I will wait for Xiaofan to come back and consider the next specific measures together."
"Captain Rong, I can..."
"Sister-in-law, I have some very important tasks for you to do tomorrow. If you don't get a good rest tonight, I'm afraid there will be mistakes in your work tomorrow."
Afraid that he would cancel his decision to arrange a task for her tomorrow, Mu Yu immediately changed his mind: "I'm going to rest now."
Rong Jian nodded, and the two of them walked to the elevator while discussing the case.
Seeing that it was late at night, Mu Yu walked to the door of his room, thought for a moment, and called out to Rong Jian who was about to enter the room: "Captain Rong, we have been investigating this case for more than half a year, there is no rush here. Two days a day, don’t just be busy investigating cases and exhaust your body, you have to rest when it’s time to rest.”
Rong Jian smiled and nodded: "I will pay attention. Thank you sister-in-law for your concern. Sister-in-law, you and Ah Huan should also pay attention to your health and rest early."
After saying good night, Mu Yu returned to the room.
Qin Jinhuan, who was busy in front of the computer, immediately got up and went into the bathroom when he saw her coming in.
"Ah Huan, let me tell you, we now know that the girl's name is Xiaoxia! She should be from a county near Huacheng. Team Rong will send people to investigate tomorrow morning. I think we can find out who she is soon. Once we find out who she is, we can find out the real murderer!" Mu Yu followed him excitedly.
"That's great." Qin Jinhuan used words that expressed surprise, but his tone was not that strong. It was obvious that he was not surprised, just to match her excitement.
"The water is put, come in and wash it, the clothes are also ready."
"Thank you, husband." Mu Yu hugged him and kissed him, "Honey, you are so kind."
He caressed her face lovingly, and then pushed her gently towards the bathroom: "Go and wash up. I'll discuss something with you when you come out."
