spy on

Ten minutes later, Lu Lingyou stood in front of K's apartment with one hand in his pocket, and pressed the doorbell without hesitation.
Not long after, the indicator light of the surveillance camera at the door flashed twice, and then the door was opened with a click.
K stood in the door, wearing dark blue house clothes, looking at the person with a surprised face.
"Excuse me, we should have met."

Lu Lingyou pulled out the half-smoked cigarette from his mouth, and extinguished it with a pinch of his fingertips.
Then, under K's slightly shocked gaze, he kicked the cigarette butt into his right trouser pocket.
"Captain Lu, it's so late, what is it?"

With a professional smile on Lu Lingyou's face, he slightly lowered his chin and looked at K.
"The great designer has a good memory. He not only remembers me, but also knows my profession."

K also laughed along with him.
"Lu Li was joking, the previous case of missing children was so highly discussed on the Internet.
I also followed the thrilling attention all the way, how could I not know you as a detective."

Lu Lingyou nodded and did not explore whether this sentence is true or not.
"Is it convenient to go in and talk?"

K suddenly let out an ah.
"Look at me, I forgot to ask you to come in and sit down.
Of course it’s convenient, please come in.”

K's home is a large flat of more than 160 square meters, with simple and exquisite decoration. From the window, you can almost see most of the deep city south of the new city.
There are many models of different heights in the living room, all wearing semi-finished design samples.
Lu Lingyou changed into his slippers, and while walking inside, he compared the location of each room in his head according to the drawings he had read before.
"Captain Lu, what would you like to drink?"

Lu Lingyou waved his hand.
"Don't bother, I'm just here to learn more about Lin Xiaowan's situation."

K poured a glass of ice water and handed it over, and sat down opposite Lu Lingyou himself.
"Okay, then you ask."

Lu Lingyou was still looking up and down the environment in the house, and he casually glanced at K's right hand from the corner of his eye.
"injured?"

K looked down at his hands, without any expression fluctuations on his face.
"Oh, scissors at work.
You know I'm in a job where I'm fiddling with these things all day long.
Inevitably get hurt.”

Lu Lingyou hummed indifferently.
"Fang Ning said that he saw you in the parking lot at night."

K smiled and rubbed the edge of the wound on his right hand.
"I didn't expect you and Fang Ning to have such a good relationship. We just met by chance, and she mentioned it to you."

He pointed to the empty packing box that hadn't been thrown away on the dining table opposite.
"That restaurant is very famous, I go there often."

After speaking, he looked at Lu Lingyou again.
"It's convenient to ask, who are you and Fang Ning?"

Lu Lingyou raised his head.
"What do you think?"

K quickly waved his hand.
"Don't get me wrong, Captain Lu, I don't like gossip that much.
Just almost mistook another person for you in the parking lot this afternoon.
I ask this sentence to avoid unnecessary misunderstandings in the future."

Lu Lingyou didn't answer the call, took out the notebook in his arms, and put the recorder on the coffee table.
"You are the last group of people who saw Lin Xiaowan.
According to our understanding, Lin Xiaowan went to your store to try on clothes before attending the bachelor party."

The person opposite didn't seem too surprised by such a sudden change of subject.
"Yes, I did go there during the day and tried on a few sets of clothes."

"At that time, did you feel that there was something abnormal about her, or did she tell you some topics about personal life and emotional aspects?"

K was stunned for two seconds, then suddenly smiled lightly and shook his head.
"Lieutenant Lu, since you can ask me that, it means that the police must have obtained a lot of relevant information.
I'm sorry, in order to protect the privacy of the customers in the store, I did hide this issue from the police."

K's fingertips were still rubbing the skin near the wound on his right hand.
"I also found out by accident.
When she went to my store to measure the size and make a wax model, I found that her exposed arm skin and the skin on her neck had red marks to varying degrees.
Originally, I didn't want to ask more questions, but coincidentally, it seemed that she had a little conflict with her family on the phone that day.
I overheard that her fiancé seemed to have some sort of niche hobby.
This made her feel very tortured but also powerless.
And these red marks on her body all came from her fiancé.
She cried a lot after the phone call, but she didn't tell me much.
I also promised her that I would keep quiet about it."

As Lu Lingyou recorded in his notebook, he let out a raised voice.
"Oh?
that's it?
You didn't take a stand, or persuade her to leave such a man?"

K took another glass of ice water and took a sip.
"Lieutenant Lu was joking, how can I, the owner of a wedding dress shop, talk about other people's emotional problems?
Besides, feelings, that’s probably how it is.
This is very similar to your investigation.
Peel off the skin layer by layer, and most of what is exposed inside is an ugly lining."

Lu Ling's men stopped writing, raised their heads and glanced at K inexplicably.
"It's rare that you have such a deep understanding of the relationship between men and women."

K smiled and looked back at the past.
"Lu Li doesn't look like a person who has never been in love, so he should understand the unspeakable complexity.
At least when you stand next to Fang Ning, you can't hide the eyes of the wolf guarding the food."

The two of them just looked at each other motionlessly, and neither of them spoke.
Suddenly, the mobile phone placed on the dining table not far away buzzed and vibrated.
K pursed his lips apologetically.
"Excuse me, Captain Lu, can I go over there and answer the phone?
Possibly an important client."

Lu Lingyou nodded.
"Please."

He leaned on the back of the sofa just like that, watching K pick up the phone and go to the window to answer the call.
At the same time, Lu Lingyou's own mobile phone also received a message.
"Boss, Team Du is arranging someone to call K."

Lu Ling swam back, put down his phone and looked at the window again.
The expression of the person standing by the window changed from calm, surprised, to silent and cold, Lu Lingyou could see all of this series of changes.
He just held the phone close to his ear, looking at Lu Lingyou on the sofa with unfocused eyes.
"Okay, convenient.
Then please wait for me for a while, I will pass right away."

After hanging up the phone, K seemed to take a deep breath, and then walked back this way.
"Lieutenant Lu, I'm really sorry, there are some emergencies waiting for me to deal with in my shop.
Today's conversation can only end here temporarily.
If there is anything you need to cooperate with us, we can make another appointment.
Can you see it?"

Lu Lingyou closed the notebook, grabbed the recorder and stood up from the sofa.
"Okay, I interrupted."

"Then I'll take you out."

After less than 3 minutes, K's car slowly drove out of the underground garage and gradually entered the main road.
The location of his community is indeed very special, it can be regarded as the inflection point of the commercial district close to the new and old urban areas.
Take the main road to the right, which is the expressway in the new urban area that has just been opened to traffic.
But turn left on the small road, and you can disappear in an instant in the small alley in the blind monitoring area that twists and turns in the old city.
Watching K's car gradually disappear from sight, Lu Lingyou quickly climbed into the community again from the backyard wall.
The half-exposed mobile phone camera in his chest pocket was working, and the sound of Zhao Yue and Zhao Zifeng's suffocating breath came from the earphones.
"Boss, do you have to go through the window? Although it's only on the sixth floor,
Zhao Zifeng can cut off the surveillance network of his house and open the door in minutes."

Lu Lingyou said into the microphone while climbing up.
"The camera at the door has a separate memory card, and it can work independently even when the network is disconnected and the power is off. The sensor light will turn on as soon as people walk through the corridor, and there is no time to replace the memory card.
I checked the camera in the house, it is an internet-connected model.
Just replace the unmanned screen during the period after he left.
Zhao Zifeng, this is an illegal operation, do you dare to do it?"

Zhao Zifeng patted his chest firmly.
"Boss, I'm not afraid of punishment.
By the way, I have done remote monitoring of K's mobile phone, if he wants to open the Internet background to check the home monitoring, I will know immediately."

Three minutes later, Lu Lingyou walked through the window on the sixth floor and entered the living room that he had just left.
"According to the marking on the drawing, there was originally a small warehouse on the southwest side, but I didn't see a door on that wall just now.
You guys should make a good time, and K will arrive at the bridal shop in about 5 minutes.
According to his rigorous personality, he may check the surveillance later."

"Understood, boss."

On the southwest side of the living room is a whole wall decorated with wooden lines. Lu Lingyou touched it for a while in the dark, and suddenly felt a slightly raised touch from his fingertips.
"There really is a secret door."

Both Zhao Yue and Zhao Zifeng grasped the armrests of the chairs beside them with both hands, they were so nervous that they almost forgot to breathe.
But Lu Lingyou suddenly had a bad feeling in his heart.
This is far too easy to find.
Sure enough, when he took out the wire from his arms and unlocked the door, the two people on the other end of the video call almost cursed.
As soon as the door was opened, there was a half-wood and half-glass desk in the middle.
The table is empty except for two arm-sized female BJD dolls in wedding dresses.
The two dolls are holding hands, and there is a ruby-carved bright red tear of blood under the corner of each eye, which is very eye-catching.
Zhao Yue couldn't bear the goosebumps all over her body any longer, and cursed.
"I'll fuck him, you pervert."
