deep white secret

Chapter 107
Ningxia went home alone and when she walked into the community gate, Gu Youmei walked out of the security room.

"Officer Ning."

"How did you come?"

"I'm waiting for you. I made some dumplings for you this afternoon."

"no need."

"You're welcome, Taotao is tutoring nearby, and I just happened to bring her food. I also brought you one by the way."

"You know I live here?"

"Yes, I also know that we are neighbors."

Ningxia then took a serious look at Gu Youmei. Today, Gu Youmei had a smile on her face and seemed to be happy from the bottom of her heart.

"Indeed, we are neighbors. What are you going to do with the house?"

Ningxia saw the smile on Gu Youmei's face and couldn't think of any other possibility. Apart from Hu Jiatao's academic performance, the house should be the top priority in Gu Youmei's life now.

"The house is in my name. Lao Hu has no place to live, so let him live there first. After all, he is Taotao's father."

"You and Hu Siyang..."

Gu Youmei quickly waved her hands, but with a smile on her face:
"Impossible, impossible, but let's talk about the future later, I don't want to."

She said she didn't want to, but Gu Youmei's expression was very expectant. It seemed that Gu Youmei had forgiven Hu Siyang in her heart, and she was looking forward to getting back together.

Ningxia understood in an instant. Gu Youmei's joy came from the fact that now that Xu Dan was killed, the house and Hu Siyang had hope to return to her arms.

"By the way, Officer Ning, how is your case going?"

"Still investigating."

"No direction?"

"not yet."

Gu Youmei saw Ningxia holding a computer in her hand and shaking the dumplings in her hand:

"Let's go, I'll take it back to you and help Lao Hu clean up."

Gu Youmei's initiative made Ningxia feel that something was wrong, and that familiar feeling of being unable to grasp returned.

"Hu Siyang has moved back?"

"Well, it's not convenient to live outside all the time. Besides, it's been five or six days since this happened. It's nothing. We still have to live, so Lao Hu has moved back today."

The two of them walked for a while, Gu Youmei said:
"Officer Ning, our neighbors won't last long. Taotao is studying nearby. I plan to sell the house and buy another one. People have died here, and we can't live here."

Gu Youmei's state today is completely different from when Ning Xia first met her. She no longer had that humble and hopeless look. Now there is joy in her tone, and talking about buying a house is as easy as going to the vegetable market.

Ning Xia gave Gu Youmei a meaningful look. Gu Youmei was immersed in her own world, with a smile on her lips.

Gu Youmei was thinking about the future all the way. When she arrived at the door of Ningxia's house, Gu Youmei said:
"Here, here are the dumplings for you."

Ningxia held the keys in one hand and the computer briefcase in the other. Gu Youmei smiled when she saw this:
"Why don't I bring it in for you? You can't get the dumplings. Do you have to carry so many things every day? It's really hard for you policemen."

"It's nothing. This is our job. If we want to catch the murderer early, we have to work overtime."

"Are you going to investigate the case when you get home?"

Ningxia didn't answer, but Gu Youmei understood.

The two people walked into the room. Gu Youmei had no intention of leaving. Ningxia put her computer bag on the shelf in the hall, took the dumplings and had to let Gu Youmei come in and sit.

Ningxia has been staying at Xu Jie's house for a while, and the doors and windows in the room are closed. After Gu Youmei sat down, Ningxia was busy opening the window and pouring out the dumplings. Gu Youmei has been sitting quietly on the sofa, watching Ningxia busy.

After a while, Gu Youmei asked again:
"Officer Ning, how far have you investigated the case now?"

"There is no result yet, and we have been investigating."

At this time Ningxia's phone rang, it was Xu Jie, Ningxia looked at Gu Youmei, Gu Youmei smiled, and didn't mean to say goodbye.

Ningxia had no choice but to pick up the phone.

"Captain Xu!"

"Go home?"

"Ah."

"Captain Yang and I will have some dinner tonight. We'll go back later and you can take care of dinner by yourself."

"it is good."

Ning Xia wanted to ask Shi Tuqing how the investigation was going, but because Gu Youmei held back from asking, Xu Jie said on the other end of the phone:
"Team Yang and the others found Shi Tuqing's financial transaction records. Several transactions were made by Xu Dan. On the day of the incident, Shi Tuqing ran out of Xu Dan's house, looking panicked..."

Ning Xia nodded to Gu Youmei, stood up, opened the balcony door and walked out. Xu Jie continued:
"Shi Yihang initially checked the surveillance because the moving truck blocked the camera and may not have captured Shi Tuqing, but Team Yang and the others have records here."

"Great."

"You should take a good look at the surveillance tonight. I will send you a photo of Shi Toqing later. If Shi Toqing pretends to be calm, Shi Yihang may not be able to find it in the first investigation."

"Ok."

"There is also the third female suspect. You should carefully identify Shi Tuqing before and after you find him. If your analysis is correct, this person should be at the scene of the crime, but she did not report the crime."

"Understood. Captain Xu, has it been confirmed that the murderer is Shi Tuqing?"

"It's basically confirmed that Shi Tuqing's appearance is completely consistent with Han's forensic inference. Team Yang still has to wait for the net to be collected. We are not in a hurry. We will collect other evidence first and wait for Team Yang and the others to act."

Putting down the phone, Ningxia heaved a sigh of relief, finally seeing some clues about the case.

Turning back to the living room, Ningxia found that Gu Youmei had left...

Ningxia looked at her phone and saw that the call had only lasted 10 minutes. Gu Youmei's behavior made Ningxia feel strange.

But at this time, the work that Xu Jie handed over to Ning Xia occupied Ning Xia's mind, so she didn't think too much about it, and simply cleaned up the house, and Ning Xia was going to Xu Jie's house.

When Ningxia walked out of the house, she saw that the door of Gu Youmei's house was closed, and the Spring Festival couplets that had been pasted on the door frame had been torn off.

There are also dumplings that Gu Youmei sent to Ningxia. Ningxia accidentally forgot them on the kitchen counter...

When they arrived at Xu Jie's house, Ningxia ate the noodles and took a shower. After packing everything up, Ningxia took the briefcase and took out the computer.

Just as he was about to put the community USB flash drive into his computer to watch, Ningxia found that the USB flash drive was missing.

She got up and searched again, but still couldn't find it. Ningxia's heart was beating in panic.

Ning Xia recalled carefully that she must have put the USB drive in the mezzanine of her computer briefcase when she left the police station.

And the outer zipper was closed, but now the zipper was wide open and the USB flash drive was missing.

Did it fall out?

Impossible. Ningxia made sure that the zipper was not opened before going home. If it were opened, she would definitely see it.

So someone took it?

But besides Gu Youmei, he didn't see anyone else.

Gu Youmei?
A chill ran down Ningxia's spine, mostly due to panic and incomprehension. Did Gu Youmei take away the USB flash drive?What does she want to do?
Ning Xia walked around the room, not sure, but besides Gu Youmei, Ning Xia couldn't think of anyone else.

Now only Gu Youmei may have taken the USB flash drive.

why?
Ningxia tried hard to calm down. From the perspective of Xu Dan's murder, Gu Youmei was the beneficiary, and the only beneficiary.

Ning Xia remembered the sincere joy on Gu Youmei's face just now.

However, the USB flash drive was only the video surveillance of Mingyuan Community on the day of the incident, and it was a copied image. Gu Youmei should not know the contents of the USB flash drive. Why did she take it away?
Want to know what the case is about?Want to know how far the police have investigated?But Gu Youmei taking the USB flash drive could easily make Ningxia suspicious of her. What did Gu Youmei think?
In addition to analyzing Gu Youmei's psychology, Ning Xia was also worried about how to explain to Xu Jie that she had lost the evidence.

As a criminal investigation police officer, Ningxia felt that he was finished for the first time when the evidence was lost.
