"How about this, you go and find me a member of the public, who must be very familiar with the deceased Zhong Xiangguang, preferably an old neighbor nearby." Song An continued.

After hearing this, the policewoman looked at Ke Wen carefully.

Ke Wen couldn't help but laugh,"Silly girl, Officer Song is looking for an opportunity for you to make meritorious service and atone for your sins, why don't you thank him!"

The policewoman woke up as if from a dream, quickly bowed to Song An, and immediately ran outside the cordon.

"Alas, there are not enough police force! Logically, the newly promoted female police officers are not suitable for the scene. There is no other way. There is a shortage of people."

Ke Wen looked at Song An helplessly.

Song An agreed with this point. In the era without big data and surveillance sky eyes, local police stations are indeed short of people.

Soon, the female police came with a gray-haired old man in his sixties.

The old man was a little nervous and did not dare to look at Song An and the others. If the female police had not grabbed his arm, he would have run away.

"Don't be afraid, old man. We just want to ask you one thing.

Song 21 An took out a cigarette from his pocket with a smile, offered it to the old man, and lit it for him.

The old man took a puff of the cigarette, and his expression was obviously relaxed.

""Grandpa, do you know Zhong Xiangguang who runs the fried chicken shop?" Song An asked.

The old man nodded, with a bit of sadness on his face,"We have been friends for decades, I didn't expect him to die so tragically, alas!"

"Do you know what time his fried chicken shop closes?" Song An continued to ask

"8:30, close the store on time at 8:30 in the evening! It has never changed in more than ten years, especially since his daughter just gave birth to a grandson. He was anxious to go home to hug his grandson, and often closed the store before 8:30. Sometimes our grandchildren are hungry and want to eat fried chicken, but no matter how we knock on the door, he won’t open the door!"

Song An patted the old man's shoulder gently,"Uncle, let me ask you one last question. Is there anyone on your street who eats without paying and often comes to collect protection fees?" When the old man heard Song An's question, he was so scared that he dared not speak.

Ke Wen saw it from the side and immediately advised,"Old man, don't be afraid. Only when we catch all the bad guys can we live in peace!"

The old man raised his eyebrows, his eyebrows were gathered, his eye bags were tight, and the corners of his mouth were trembling.

Song An knew from his expression that he was very afraid of that man

""Old man, I actually know that man. He lives in Bailu Village, right?"

Song An asked.

The old man turned his head and looked at Song An in surprise,"You, how do you know?"

Song An smiled and continued to persuade the old man,"We police officers even know where he lives. Do you think we will let him go? You must have grandchildren, right? Do you want them to live under the shadow of these bastards? Zhong Xiangguang died today, who will be the next to die?"

"Government, please help us. Hou Qing and his gang have been bullying the people on our street!"

The old man was about to kneel down and kowtow to Song An, and Song An was so scared that he held him tightly.

Not far away, the people who were watching heard that they were going to arrest the man named Hou Qing, and they all rushed into the cordon and ran over!

"Officer, do you really want to arrest Hou Qing?"

"He bullies the market and makes us small business owners pay protection fees. It's bad!"

"He beats up anyone he doesn't like. Several families on our street have been bullied by him!"

"Every time we called the police, he retaliated against us, and we were so scared that we dared not speak out!"

Song An waved his hand,"Everyone be quiet, tell me the details of Hou Qing, and we will send someone to arrest him immediately, right now!"

"good!!"

"Long live the people's police!"

There was a loud applause at the scene.

Then, the crowd told Song An and others the detailed information of the gangster Hou Qing.

Ke Wen made a prompt decision and immediately ordered 30 special police and 50 patrol police to go to Bailu Village, Fengze West Road to arrest the suspect Hou Qing!

The police car whistled, the red and blue lights flashed, and tonight was destined to be an uneasy night. After the police car left, Ke Wen's face was still full of doubts.

Not only him, but Wu Jiaqi and others also didn't understand why they wanted to arrest Hou Qing.

"Comrade Song An, can you tell us why you are so sure that the murderer is Hou Qing?"Ke Wen asked with a smile.

Song An shook his head,"Hou Qing may not be the murderer, but he is a strong suspect! Do you remember that bag of garbage?"

Several people nodded at the same time.

"He ordered chicken legs but didn't eat them, but ate chicken wings and French fries. Don't you think it's strange?" Song An asked.

Several people shook their heads.

Song An smiled and said,"I've read reports before. We Asians love to eat chicken legs the most, and Europeans and Americans love to eat chicken wings the most. But when faced with the fragrant chicken legs, the murderer actually chose to eat chicken wings. This shows that in his subconscious, eating chicken legs may be a taboo!"

After Song An finished speaking, Wu Jiaqi, Ke Wen and others looked at each other.

Is this also a taboo?

The female police officer who was scolded just now raised her hand weakly, as if she wanted to say something.

Song An smiled at her,"You can say it boldly."

The female police officer looked at Captain Ke and others who were looking at her, cleared her throat and said,"The customs of Bailu Village are different from those of other places. In Bailu Village, eating chicken legs and chicken feet are serious violations of clan rules, and will be removed from the clan and expelled from the family tree! However, there are no regulations on eating chicken wings."

"Is there really such a taboo? How do you know it so clearly?"Wu Jiaqi asked curiously.

The policewoman lowered her head embarrassedly,"My mother was married from Bailu Village, and I have never seen her touch chicken legs or chicken feet since I was a child."

Ke Wen looked at the policewoman and then at Song An,"Comrade Song An, don't tell me that your mother was also married from Bailu Village."

Song An smiled and shook his head.

"Of course not! I like to study food, and I am most interested in the eating habits of different places. I read a lot of books on this subject when I was in college, and I didn’t expect it to come in handy now! The eating habits of Bailu Village are very unique. The shrimp and rice crust dish made in their village is known as the best in the world, so I remember it very clearly.".
