"Why?" Wu Cuo took out a cigarette, handed it to Lao Wang, and helped him lit it. He also lit it himself, and the distance between the two suddenly became much closer.

Lao Wang said: "It's purely a guess. If you want me to say it, then I will say it, but I have no basis."

"You just say it's okay."

"That's right. Our area has been saying that it will be demolished for several years. At the beginning of this year, there was finally a definite news. Everyone is looking forward to moving into a new house with compensation and getting another compensation. Don't think that my dilapidated house is not valuable, but the location is valuable. The developer has calculated that only my house's 70-square-meter house can be exchanged for two 100-square-meter houses. If you don't have a house, you can get the compensation.

Everyone discussed it and thought it was cost-effective. Only Lao Li was like a stone in a pit, smelly and hard, and insisted on negotiating the price with the developer, and even the lion spoke up. At first, there were greedy people who followed him to make trouble, but later the price could not be negotiated, and it was boring to make trouble. He was the only one left in our community and was still insisting on it."

Wu Cuo thought for a moment and said, "What you mean is that the developer has a conflict of interests with the deceased."

"No, anyway, I know that Lao Li was killed, my first feeling is the developer. Lao Li is still a good person. Think about it, if you can raise two children who are not biological, you must be a good person."

Seeing that Lao Wang was joking, Wu Cuo quickly took out his notebook, wrote down Lao Wang's contact information, left a business card and said goodbye.

When Wu Cuo returned to the scene, Yan Ruyu and a criminal policeman had just left the noodle stall.

The Internet cafe where Li Mei works is located in a nearby urban village. If you can walk, it is about 25 minutes away from her home. According to the criminal police officers who are traveling with her, the dormitory provided by the Internet cafe is just two houses rented in the urban village. Two women hold one in cashiers and two men hold one in the Internet cabin.

When the two walked to the Internet cafe, the first thing they saw was a piece of 4 papers posted on the door saying "Training second-hand computers at a low price".

As soon as I entered the Internet cafe, I felt the lights were dark and the smoke was chaotic.

Yan Ruyu walked straight to the cashier counter and said to a cashier girl inside: "Your computers here need to be processed?"

The cashier kept staring at the monitor on the table without even raising his eyelids.

"Boss! Someone asked about the second-hand computer!"

With the cashier's voice, a middle-aged man with a cigarette in his mouth stood up from a computer in the ordinary area and shouted at Yan Ruyu: "You want to buy it?"

Yan Ruyu did not answer, but pointed to the computer in the ordinary area and asked, "Is that all?"

"Yes, the machine I just changed has no time to say. If it weren't for demolition, I wouldn't have sold it. I'd bought more and it would be cheaper for you."

Yan Ruyu then took out the police officer's certificate and said, "Let me know some information from you."

The Internet cafe owner was stunned and then took out an old-fashioned expression, saying in a social atmosphere: "It's a policeman. Nothing happened to our small place since it opened."

The inter-campire police officers were used to seeing such people who had to separate themselves from each other before they had anything to do or not, and said straightforwardly: "Do you have a cashier named Li Mei here?"

"yes."

"She worked night shift last night?"

"That's right." The boss felt much more relieved when he heard that it was nothing to do with him.

"Has she been here last night?" Yan Ruyu asked.

"Then you have to watch the surveillance." The boss walked to the cashier and retrieved the surveillance screen of the cashier last night.

Yan Ruyu quickly browsed the surveillance. Since changing shifts at 10 pm, Li Mei has been sitting in the cashier until she left at 2:35 AM.

It seems that Li Mei is very serious and responsible. When she left, she called a man to sit in the cashier. According to the boss, the man was the night shift network administrator of the Internet cafe. When Li Mei left, she walked deep into the Internet cafe and probably went to the bathroom.

At 2:51, Li Mei came back and talked to the network administrator for a few words. The network administrator walked out of the cashier. Li Mei sat back. After a while, she lay on the table, as if she was asleep.

Until the morning handover, Li Mei never left the cashier again.

Yan Ruyu said to the criminal policeman who came with him: "Copy the surveillance video."

The boss asked, "She is a little girl, isn't it okay?"

Yan Ruyu whispered: "Her stepfather was killed last night."

"Ah?!" The boss subconsciously took a step back and kicked down a trash can. The instant noodles bowl discarded in the trash can was poured, and half a bowl of instant noodles soup flowed onto the ground, making the taste even more muddy and weird.

The boss frowned and said to the girl in the cashier, "Clean up." After that, he moved a place to Yan Ruyu and said, "She has a stepfather?"

"Don't you know?"

The boss shook his head and asked the cashier's girl: "Do you know?"

The girl who was checking in the cashier also shook her head blankly.

The boss continued: "Li Mei is quite introverted and doesn't talk much. I only know that she has a sister who drops out of school and wants to earn tuition for her sister. She has never heard her talk about her parents."

"Do you know that her family is in the nearby steel factory staff building?"

"Ah? You said those three old buildings? I haven't heard of them!" The boss was so surprised that his eyes were almost glaring out, "Li Mei has been here for two years and has been living in the dormitory. I thought her home was outside!"

The cashier girl interrupted, "No wonder, I live in the same house with her. Sometimes she doesn't come back for several days for no reason, and she is on time to go to work. I thought she had a boyfriend outside, so she didn't tell her. It turned out that she was going home."

"It's interesting," Yan Ruyu lit a cigarette and said to the criminal policeman who was traveling with him: "Since Li Mei only went to the bathroom last night, let's go to the bathroom to take a look."

The bathroom in the Internet cafe is very shared by men and women. Those who come in lock the door inside, but those outside cannot enter.

In the bathroom, the white floor tiles are so dirty that they can't tell the true nature. The taste is not as mixed as in Internet cafes, but it smells even worse. The smell is simply eye-catching.

Yan Ruyu noticed the bathroom window at first sight.

The windows were covered with dust, but the windowsill was quite clean.

"This window has not been opened for several years. Our area is not in good condition. When you open the window, you will be able to throw away the hand sanitizer by broom and mop." said the owner of the Internet cafe.

"Is anyone wiped the windowsill?"

"I haven't noticed it. The duty is a cashier and the network administrator. I haven't worried about it."

The style of the window is very old, the type with wooden latch. Yan Ruyu pulled out the latch and unexpectedly pulled it out easily. As soon as the window opened, the air circulated, the taste became much better. The three people squeezed into the narrow space were only a lot more comfortable.

"It seems that someone has touched the latch and the window seam, otherwise it would not have been opened so easily. The latch is "The detective who was in the same process took out the cotton swab and wiped the latch. Some black and yellow things were stuck to the cotton swab. "This is oil! Someone put oil into the latch in order to open the window!"

The boss came up in surprise and said incoherently: "I don't know this, I don't know."

"Photo taken it," Yan Ruyu said to the criminal policeman who was traveling with him: "It's almost clear, and there is still a lack of key evidence. It depends on the autopsy and on-site investigation results."

The criminal policeman who was traveling with him said, "But it takes nearly 50 minutes to get from the Internet cafe to the deceased's house. Li Mei only left the cashier for more than ten minutes, and even if she had to run, it would be too late."

"The paths in the villages in the city are complicated and it is not difficult to find a shortcut. However, let's leave the physical work to Wu Tuzi."
