Detective Files II

Chapter 210 The landlord is weird

After a while, just when Tian Mi was about to give up hope on this man, the man appeared again. This time, he seemed to use the time just now to groom himself a little, combed his hair, and put on a thick shirt , People are much more sober than before.

"I'm sorry, I fell asleep just now." He seemed a little embarrassed by his behavior of poking his head out of a daze just now, rubbed the back of his head, and handed a note with his phone number to An Changpu , "The landlord left this to me, saying it was for a rainy day. It just so happened, and it really came in handy today."

"Old resident?" An Changpu took the note, nodded at the man as a way of expressing his gratitude, and asked casually, "Are you familiar with the other three?"

"It's not really an old resident, I've only lived there for more than six years! Actually, it's the other two," the man scratched the back of his head, pointing to the door between his house and Zhu Na's house, " This house is also my house, I thought the house was not big enough, so I bought it, opened up the middle wall, and merged the two houses into one.”

He pointed to the door directly opposite him again: "That house seems to be rented to the students of the nearby vocational college. It is now on winter vacation. I haven't seen anyone coming in and out for a long time. They probably all left. Before that, every day It’s going in and out, there are a lot of people living in it, it’s quite mixed, and there are often new faces, I basically can’t recognize who is who.”

"What about this household?" Tian Mi pointed to the door of Zhu Na's room. From the tone of the man's questioning just now, it seems that he may not be able to talk about friendship and understanding with Zhu Na and Zhu Na's fiancée. , but at least recognized.

"You mean the landlord, Mr. Han? I know him well, but not very well. He hadn't moved out when I first moved here. He lived as a neighbor for more than a year. It seems that his son's unit allocated the house. , To free up the original small area, the old boss Han thought that he and his wife would live there, and it would be more profitable to rent out the larger area here, so he moved away. "

"Then what about the young couple you mentioned renting a house?"

"I don't know much about them. They don't seem to like to talk very much, especially the man, who usually nods when they meet each other." The man shook his head, "I knew they moved here for about three years. Well, I'm not sure about anything else."

Tian Mi quickly recorded, and when he finished speaking, she nodded to him and asked, "What's your name?"

"Yang Yuanfan." The man offered to extend his hand.

Tian Mi also reached out her hand to shake him politely, and glanced at the room behind him: "It's so early, I hope it didn't affect your family. As for the neighbor who lives next door to you, I don't know if other people in your family are more familiar with it." a little?"

Yang Yuanfan grinned in embarrassment: "I've been divorced for almost a year... I live alone..."

Tian Mi was a little embarrassed by his answer, and quickly apologized: "Sorry, I don't know."

"It's okay, it's okay, you didn't mean it, and besides, divorce is not something shameful!" Yang Yuanfan waved his hand and sighed, "I put all my experience on work and other things before, Ignored my wife—oh, no, it should be said to be my ex-wife, she couldn't bear it after a long time, so she left...Hey, look at me, what are you talking about! I'm sorry, I hope it doesn't affect your work!"

"May I ask, what kind of work do you do?" Tian Mi asked with great interest.

"engineer."

"Hey, technical talents!" An Changpu praised from the side, causing Yang Yuanfan to wave his hands modestly.

"When was the last time you saw someone coming back from the house next door to you?" Tian Mi asked.

Judging from the expression on his face, Yang Yuanfan had vaguely guessed what might happen next door, and became serious and nervous. After carefully recalling it for a while, he said: "It was a week ago, or it was less than a week ago. I can't remember, I saw the man from that family going out with a big suitcase, and the woman from that family... I haven't seen her for a long time."

"How long?"

"I can't remember, I didn't pay special attention to it." Yang Yuanfan suddenly slapped his hands, "I remembered, it seems to be the day before yesterday or the day before yesterday! I saw old boss Han coming over. When I saw him, he I was about to leave, but I didn’t see anyone delivering it, so I chatted with him, and he said it was a leak in the bathroom pipe, so I called him downstairs, and he came to fix it.”

"Have you heard any special noises from the next door these days?"

"No, whether the family is at home or not, it's basically quiet, and the sound insulation of our building is not bad."

"You just said that the man next door to you left a week or so ago, and then appeared again?"

"Probably not, at least I didn't see it. The reason why I remember this is because he didn't look very good the day he left, and he ignored me when I greeted him."

"Didn't you just say that you usually at least nod your acquaintance?"

"That's right, but that day I saw that his box seemed to be quite heavy, and it was difficult for one person to hold it, so I offered to help. He didn't use me, said he could do it, and then went downstairs and left."

Tian Mi thanked Yang Yuanfan, and Yang Yuanfan saw that he had nothing to do with him, so he also closed the door and went home.

Taking advantage of the time when Tian Mi asked Yang Yuanfan about the situation, An Changpu called the landlord who Yang called "Old Han" according to the phone number Yang Yuanfan copied. The other party heard that something happened to his rental house. Immediately said that he lived not far away, and he would arrive soon.

Sure enough, only ten minutes later, an old man in his 60s ran up from downstairs. He was tall and thin, and the hair on his head was thin and gray due to his age. Like a withered prickly pear.

"You... I, I am the head of this house. What's wrong here?" Maybe it was because of his impatience, the old man was a little anxious to go upstairs, and now he was holding on to the handrail of the stairs with one hand on his hips, standing almost half way He was panting heavily on the slow platform before reaching the seventh floor, he couldn't speak well, his long and thin face was flushed red, and his head was steaming.

"How do you call them?" Although they knew the other party's surname was Han, they were older after all. It was difficult for Tian Mi and An Changpu to call him "Old Han Boss" like Yang Yuanfan.

"My surname is Han, you can just call me Lao Han!" The boss of Lao Han panted for a while, his breathing gradually calmed down, he raised his hand and wiped his forehead with his cuff randomly a few times, "Little comrade, what's wrong with my house?"

"Is Zhu Na your tenant?" Tian Mi asked him.

Old Han boss nodded: "Ah, yes, what's the matter?"

"When was the last time you saw her?"

"Hey, that's a good time! I made an appointment with them in the rental contract, and the rent is three deposits and one deposit. The last time the rent was paid was nearly two months ago!" Old Han Boss thought for a while.

"Have you been here a few days ago? To fix the water pipes?"

"Oh, yes, water leak, water leak." Old Han Boss responded with a hmm, and then asked, "What's the matter?"

"Juna is dead, her body was found dumped two streets away this morning."

The old boss Han seemed to be taken aback by this answer, he stopped breathing heavily, opened his mouth, looked at Tian Mi and An Changpu foolishly, looked back and forth at their expressions, and waited to make sure that no one was taking this kind of question. It was just a joke, so I asked tremblingly: "She...wasn't killed in my house?"

"I don't know yet, have you brought the door key of this house? Please open the door, we need to go in to get evidence."

Old Mr. Han nodded his head in a hurry, while groping around his waist, he walked up the half-level of steps, came to the door, untied a large bunch of jingling keys from his waist, and found the key to the house from inside. The door key, and handed it to Anchangpu who is the closest to him.

An Changpu took the key with his gloved hand and opened the door carefully.

The moment the door slowly opened, almost everyone held their breath and looked inside nervously.

However, there was no bloody, messy, or other scenes that could be associated with the crime scene inside the door. Everything in the living room was in order, and against the backdrop of the morning sun that appeared outside the window, nothing unusual could be seen.

"Wait a minute!" Old Han was about to go in, but was stopped by a policeman on the side, who handed him a pair of shoe covers, "Put these on! Don't ruin the scene!"

How could Old Han have any objections, he immediately took it and put it on his feet, and then he was allowed to go in with Tian Mi and the others.

However, he also has a long memory. After entering the door, he stood aside cautiously, not daring to touch it anywhere.

Tian Mi and the others also checked around.

The living room is very tidy, only the light floating dust can be seen on the window sill and the glass plate of the coffee table. It seems that no one has touched it for a few days.The sofa is covered with fine velvet cushions, which are also very flat, and it can be seen that they have been carefully paved.

The situation in the bedroom is similar to that in the living room. The bed is neatly made, and it doesn’t look like someone has slept on it. There are framed photos and several vitamins on the bedside table by the window. Intimate group photo, smiling brightly.

In this house, which seemed to be only about [-] square meters, the only thing that made people feel a little messy was the kitchen.

On the floor by the kitchen door was a plastic bag with the logo of a certain supermarket chain. Inside the plastic bag were bread, ham sausage, two bottles of tea drinks, and a shopping receipt.

It can be seen through the packaging bag that tiny blue mold spots have faintly appeared on the surface of the bread.

On the small square dining table in the kitchen was a semi-finished instant pizza that had been unpacked, and a faint rotten smell could be smelled close to it.

Tian Mi was observing these details carefully, when she suddenly heard a technician outside yelling: "Hey! What are you going to do?!"

She rushed out of the kitchen when she heard the sound, and saw that the landlord, Mr. Han, was standing in the bathroom with an embarrassed expression on his face, reaching for the flush button of the toilet. A weird gesture.

"Don't you know that the police are collecting evidence now? Why do you come here to use the toilet!" An Changpu saw the light yellow liquid in the toilet, and criticized the old boss Han with a straight face.

The technician on the side snorted angrily: "That's not his pee! It was there before. When I found out, he sneaked over and wanted to flush it!"
