Section 479: Broken Safety Rope(2/2)
Everyone said they had never done it.
On the fifth floor is an old lady, over sixty years old. She is well-kept, looks young, and is well-dressed.
"I don't know! This matter has nothing to do with me. The community property management team came to ask questions one after another before. I counted the time and found that I was practicing yoga in the living room with music on. Because I was afraid of disturbing others, I wore
I used earplugs and didn’t hear anything. I only found out later that someone fell from upstairs.”
Although she is old, she has maintained a good figure. They say that "it is hard to buy thin with old age", but the old lady is very slender, wearing a short skirt and a shirt, with bumps in the front and back.
Faced with Hu Pingtao's inquiry, she answered generously: "I used to study dance, and after retirement, I worked as a dance teacher in a preschool education institution."
Hu Pingtao looked carefully at the balcony. This house had sliding windows. If you stretched out your hand, you could reach the safety rope hanging from the roof.
There is an old man on the fourth floor, similar in age to the old lady upstairs.
"I don't know." His opening remarks were the same as those of the residents upstairs: "I was sleeping at home!"
"How could such a good person fall?"
"I didn't do this. It's so unreasonable. I can't do it no matter what!"
"You have to go upstairs and check carefully."
Hu Pingtao went into the home to inspect and found that the balcony of this family had signs of overhanging. The old man explained: "In the early years, I installed a security cage, but later the city people demolished it, saying that it was occupying public space."
Damn it, what kind of logic is this! Who are you bothering by installing an anti-theft cage? They are also occupying public space... According to this, what should we do about those people who wear glasses? "
Hu Pingtao ignored him, opened the window, and took a closer look.
Judging from the location of the break of the safety rope, it was most likely on the fourth floor, and it was the old man who slept there who did it.
Although the residents on the fifth floor were also suspected, the break of the rope was more than one meter away from the window. It is difficult to imagine that the old lady upstairs bent down and completed such a difficult action as cutting the rope in an extremely difficult way and angle.
Turning around, Hu Pingtao had already made up his mind. He looked directly at the old man and asked, "Did you break the rope?"
"No!" the old man denied flatly: "Don't frame me! I'm a good person and I can't do such vile things."
"Show me your ID card." Hu Pingtao said in a serious tone.
The old man squirmed, with a look of reluctance on his face: "I already told you that this matter has nothing to do with me, so why are you looking at your ID card?"
Hu Pingtao did not relent: "Please show your ID card. The police are handling the case. Please cooperate."
The old man went back to the house and rummaged for a long time, then took out his ID card and handed it to Hu Pingtao.
Zhang Youtian is sixty-eight years old this year.
Hu Pingtao looked at the ID card, handed it to Tan Tao next to him to record, and then turned to Zhang Youtian.
