I went to the bathroom, washed away the day's fatigue, changed into pajamas and lay on the bed.
Lin Ci tossed and turned, but found that he couldn't fall asleep.
The more I kept telling myself in my mind not to think about this matter anymore, to get a good night's sleep tonight and solve it after getting up tomorrow, but my mind kept thinking about this matter uncontrollably.
Lin Ci clenched his fists and hit his head.
What's going on? Why is your brain so disobedient today? I've told you several times to think about this matter tomorrow. Why do you keep thinking about various possibilities?
Lin Ci sighed helplessly, stood up, walked to the window, opened the curtains, took a bottle of drink, looked at the night view outside the window while drinking the drink, trying to calm his heart.
It's a pity that his mind just wouldn't listen today. He thought through all the possibilities and the consequences that would occur from beginning to end.
Every process and result was not what Lin Ci wanted. Just when he was at a loss, suddenly a method popped into his mind that was both bold and dangerous. If successful, it could guarantee 100% success.
Mingci planned to go to the stationery store to buy an identical account book, make it look old, and then copy a new account book according to the handwriting of the boxing gym owner.
Before this idea, Lin Ci had an idea of making a photocopy, but the photocopied things were obviously fake and there was no way they could be concealed.
The police had never seen the account book in person, so it was impossible for them to know the handwriting on the boxing gym's account book. Moreover, there were many staff members in the boxing gym, and their handwritings all looked different, so there was no way to determine which ones were the handwriting of the gym owner.
Lin Ci is a man who does what he thinks. When he figured it out, he first hid the account book, the confidentiality agreement and three letters of guarantee under the bed.
Then Lin Ci walked out the door, praying in his heart that there was still a stationery store open in the middle of the night.
Lin Ci walked around the street again and again, and all the stationery stores he knew were closed.
In the end, Lin Ci got nothing, so he had to return home and wait until the next morning to deal with this matter.
……
On the other side, the block captain was on the verge of collapse. There was no progress, no clues, no ideas. He even began to doubt his own abilities.
This afternoon, the chief took Captain Continue to go out for a walk to relax. He originally thought that when he returned to the police station, he would have new ideas. However, the facts told him that he did not have any ideas and was still stagnant where he was.
When it was almost time to get off work, the director took a special look at him and found that his workstation was covered with hair that he had pulled out with his hands.
The director pretended to look distressed and walked forward to show concern, but in fact he had a dark smile on his face.
After returning to the neighborhood, the captain couldn't understand why there was no evidence, not even a tiny clue that was insufficient evidence.
The block captain fell into deep self-doubt and even felt that he was not worthy of being a sheriff.
【430】Falling into deep doubt
"Why is there no progress? The arrest of Mr. Zhao, the boss of the boxing ring, was clearly an accident. How could he have found the time to destroy all the evidence?
Without the ledger there is no way to search for witnesses.”
The block captain sat in front of the long table in the bedroom, hating himself for not being able to lie down, so he clenched his fists and pounded the table hard.
Who knew that a few seconds later, the neighbor next door came to the door.
The block captain only heard his door being slammed. He had no idea what was going on, so he quickly walked up and opened the door.
What greeted him was a barrage of scolding.
"What's wrong with you? Can't you let people sleep in the middle of the night? There are loud noises from time to time. If you don't go to work, others have to go to work."
The block captain realized his mistake only then. In order to vent his emotions, all his actions were subconscious and he did not consider the neighbors around him at all.
The block captain could only bow his head and quickly apologize to his neighbors.
After saying a lot of nice things, I sent the neighbor away.
The block captain closed the door and breathed a sigh of relief. He felt that after taking on these cases recently, only bad things had happened and there was not a single thing that went his way.
When he returned to the bedroom, he was in no mood to continue sorting out the clues. He tossed and turned in bed, and finally fell asleep because he was too sleepy to bear it anymore.
……
Early the next morning.
Lin Ci got up and went straight to the stationery stores nearby. He went to three stationery stores before he finally found the exact same account book.
Lin Ci took the account book and walked back home contentedly.
After returning home, Lin Ci went to the bedroom and took out the account book under the bed. He went to the desk and put the new account book and the old account book together.
Starting from the first page, he began to copy the detailed information of each customer record into another account book.
The morning passed quickly and less than half of the account book had been copied.
At this time, there was a hurried knock on the door.
Lin Ci pulled open the curtains and took a look, only to find Lei Ting and the others.
Ranking quickly walked down and opened the door for the three people.
I saw Lei Ting and others standing at the door with food in their hands.
Lin Ci asked with a look of surprise.
"Are you here to bring me food?"
"Yes, I'm afraid that you've overworked your brain and forgotten to eat and sleep because of this matter, so I just came here to try my luck. If you're not here, we'll eat on the side of the road. If you're here, we'll come to your house to eat."
Lei Ting explained.
Lin Ci quickly made way, allowing Lei Ting and others to walk into the house and sit on the sofa.
Lin Ci ran to the kitchen and got a few bowls and a few pairs of chopsticks, placed them in front of everyone, and poured all the food in the plastic bags into the bowls and plates.
Lin Ci looked at everyone and said gratefully.
"If you hadn't come, I wouldn't have known it was already noon."
"I really have forgotten to eat and sleep."
Lei Ting said jokingly.
Before Lin Ci saw the food, he didn't feel hungry. But when he saw the food, his stomach suddenly made a growling sound for some unknown reason.
No one spoke, and they wolfed down the food.
Halfway through the meal, everyone's hunger was significantly reduced, so they started chatting.
Zhong Wanjun raised his head and asked Lin Ci.
"Have you thought about what to do next?"
Lin Ci nodded and said.
"I plan to copy an account book and give it to the block captain to make it look real and see if I can fool him.
I think the director will definitely try every means to obstruct it after learning that there is evidence. Once the real account book falls into his hands, it is possible that this case will be buried in the sea.
So I decided to test it out with a fake account book first."
"¨〃 That's a good choice."
Lei Ting nodded.
"It takes a lot of effort to copy an account book. Not to mention how thick the book is and how many words are in it, you have to make sure the handwriting is almost exactly the same. At least it won't look too different and won't arouse suspicion from others."
Lin Ci nodded to confirm what Lei Ting said.
"It does take a lot of effort, but we have no other options right now. This is the safest way. There is still plenty of time. I can get it done in one day. I will hand it over to the block captain tomorrow."
Lei Ting, Zhong Wanjun and Wang Dadong admired Lin Ci's perseverance very much. If it were them, they would definitely not have such patience. After copying a few pages, they would start to regret it and think of other ways.
Lei Ting and others did not disturb Lin Ci, and left Lin Ci's home after dinner.
Lin Ci took a short rest and returned to the bedroom to copy the account book.
It was not until the evening that Lin Ci finally finished copying the account book. Now the only step left was to make the account book look old.
Lin Ci didn't use the simplest and crudest method of constantly rubbing the account book. He had to make the account book look 80% similar to the old one.
【431】Dream
Lin Ci looked at the newly made account book in his hand, nodded with satisfaction, and took it back to bed.
Lin Ci, lying on the bed, did not do anything else, but kept flipping through the pages from the first page to the last page, and then repeated the previous action.
Only in this way can the most authentic traces of use be maintained.
Lin Ci just kept flipping through the account book over and over again until his patience ran out and he was too sleepy to open his eyes.
After falling asleep, Lin Ci had a dream.
He dreamed that in the middle of the night, a mysterious man in black suddenly sneaked into his room, saw that he was still sleeping, and stole the account book on the table and the account book in his arms.
The mysterious man held two account books, and just as he was about to leave the ranking room, he turned around and gave Lin Ci a wicked smile.
It was pitch black and I couldn't see anything clearly. I could only see the mysterious man's white teeth and upturned mouth corners.
Lin Ci suddenly felt that something was missing in his hand. He woke up from his dream and found the mysterious man.
The mysterious man probably never dreamed that if he had known earlier, he would not have smiled proudly at Lin Ci. Otherwise, he would have run away without waiting for him to wake up.
"who are you?"
Lin Ci asked in a stern tone as he quickly stood up and chased after him.
The mysterious man did not reply to Lin Ci, but ran away.
He ran from the second floor to the first floor, arrived at the door and rushed out.
Lin Ci put on his slippers and pajamas and walked out of the house without even having time to change his clothes.
A mysterious man with nimble hands and very fast speed, almost on par with Lin Ci.
But in the long run, Lin Ci is slightly faster.
Although Lin Ci was wearing slippers, it did not affect his speed.
The mysterious man (cfch) turned his head and found that Lin Ci was getting closer and closer to him. He quickly thought of another way and went into a small alley nearby.
Lin Ci also went in without hesitation. The difference between the alley and the street was that there was no light at all and it was pitch black inside.
The road is quite narrow, and even though the moonlight is bright today, it is difficult to see clearly what is happening in the alley.
Lin Ci listened to the sounds in the alley, heard the footsteps of a mysterious man, and followed the sound.
Halfway through the chase, they arrived at a crossroads. Lin Ci stopped and listened carefully with his ears. However, apart from the chirping of katydids, there was no sound of footsteps around.
Why did this guy know my house and how did he get in? How did he know that the account book was on the table and in my arms without turning on the lights?
Who is he and why does he know me so well?
Lin Ci, while thinking in his mind, was contemplating which path he should take.
At this moment, he was extremely panicked. If the account book was lost, the evidence would also be lost. All his hard work for so many days would be wasted.
Finally, after constant consideration, he chose to turn right. Based on his judgment of the distance, he believed that there would definitely be no mysterious person appearing on the road going straight ahead.
The mysterious man chose to come to the alley because he wanted to hide.
There were many people running to the right. My subconscious reaction was to take a gamble on my ranking.
Unable to hear the mysterious man's footsteps, Lin Ci slowed down his pace and could only walk forward slowly.
Suddenly at this moment, a mocking voice came from behind Lin Ci.
Lin Ci quickly turned around to check, only to find a sharp object swinging back and forth in front of him.
Lin Ci took a closer look and found that it was a knife.
The knife was particularly eye-catching in the reflection of the moonlight.
The ranking fell back a bit.
"What do you want to do?"
"You said I pulled out a knife to do whatever I wanted. Isn't it obvious?"
The mysterious man lowered his voice and uttered these words.
Lin Ci asked, pretending to be calm.
"How do you know I took the account book? What does this account book have to do with you?"
"Of course it matters. If you hand this account book over to the police, I'll be finished."
The mysterious man said as he took off the hat on his head.
Lin Ci could tell at a glance that the person in front of him was the director.
