Chapter 17: Same Style Slippers
Yu Miaomiao started the car and went to Honglin Landscape City.
After Han Yun sent the WeChat message to Su Mo, he took out the card with the number '3' written on it that Su Mo had given him in the morning from his pocket and said to Miao Miao thoughtfully, "I want to participate in the investigation of this case because of this card."
Yu Miaomiao turned around and looked at it while driving, then said in surprise: "This card..."
"A reporter from Beidu Legal Newspaper found me. This card was received by her friend." Han Yun told Yu Miaomiao everything he learned from Su Mo, as well as the improper relationship between Wang Mengxian and Master Dong Xing that he had analyzed from the photos when he met Wang Mengxian in the morning. After finishing the story, he paused and said, "Wang Lu, who received this card, was taken to Su Mo's home."
"I was checking Weibo this morning and saw the news that someone disrupted the press conference of 'The King of Detectives' last night. It turns out there is a story behind it." Yu Miaomiao frowned slightly: "If that's the case, shouldn't the police send someone to ambush nearby to protect Wang Lu?"
"The reason I told you this is because I want you to pass this clue to Li Tieyun, and he will naturally send someone over." Han Yun took a deep breath and said, "If it is confirmed that Dong Xing and Bai Jing are connected, then Wang Lu may also be connected to these two people. But as a best friend, Su Mo asked Wang Lu about this question, but Wang Lu said that she didn't know them. Wang Lu may have concealed something and lied to Su Mo."
"I'll tell Team Leader Li about this right now." Yu Miaomiao took out her phone, found Li Tieyun on WeChat, and informed him of the appearance of the third card. After sending the voice message, Yu Miaomiao glanced at Han Yun and said, "Are you sure you can find the murderer before he attacks Wang Lu?"
"Have you heard that saying? Those who drown are all good swimmers. Sometimes, the concept of 'grasping' is very deceptive. I won't make such predictions." Han Yun stared at WeChat on his phone and said thoughtfully, "We can only do our best."
"I'm very curious. Since the third card has appeared and the person who received the card is safe for the time being, why don't you go talk to Wang Lu first?" Yu Miaomiao asked, "Will Wang Lu really continue to conceal something that is life-threatening?"
"Human nature is like this. You won't cry until you see the coffin. If Wang Lu didn't tell the truth to Su Mo, we don't have any evidence, and she won't say it on her own initiative. It's a kind of fluke mentality." Han Yun explained: "So even if you go to find her blindly, it's just a wasted trip. When you were in professional courses, your teacher should have talked about many such cases. Everyone has a fluke mentality, so do you and me." Han Yun's voice had just fallen, and the WeChat notification sound rang on his phone. He hurriedly clicked it, and it was Su Mo's reply: We are together.
Su Mo's reply made Han Yun breathe a sigh of relief temporarily.
"No one will take the initiative to expose their scars for others to admire , and no one will take the initiative to show their dirty side to others." Yu Miaomiao said thoughtfully: "When you meet Dong Xing's wife later, do you have a way to make her admit her relationship with Bai Jing?"
"Do you know why I didn't go meet Zhao Baoying first to confirm whether she knows Dong Xing's wife? If I go to her first, she might tip off Dong Xing's wife and let her be prepared, which would make it more difficult to get anything out of her." Han Yun picked up the mineral water, unscrewed the lid, drank the remaining water, and then continued: "When she is completely unprepared, maybe I can find some flaws from the conversation. Dong Xing's wife...is her name Wu Nan, right?"
"Yes, her name is Wu Nan, she is 48 years old this year, a housewife, she used to work as a salesperson in a medical company, and she became a housewife after marrying Dong Xing. They have no children. When Dong Xing's body was found, Team Leader Li had someone take her to the police station for questioning. I met her once, she looked very quiet, and had the charm of a mature woman." Yu Miaomiao paused and added, "She is also very beautiful."
"The husband is a star surgeon at the First People's Hospital of Beidu, and the wife is beautiful and charming. On the surface, they should be an enviable couple." Han Yun recalled what Wang Mengxian said. Of course, she couldn't believe everything, but it wasn't all lies. It should be true that Dong Xing and his wife Wu Nan had problems in their marriage. In fact, if he hadn't learned about this from Wang Mengxian and suspected that she had an affair with her master Dong Xing, Han Yun wouldn't have speculated in this direction when he saw the bank receipt at Bai Jing's house .
Arriving at Honglin Landscape City, after completing the registration at the gate, the two walked in. Arriving at Building B, Han Yun stopped, looked up thoughtfully, and then walked towards Building A.
Taking the elevator up to the 12th floor, Yu Miaomiao came to the door of 1202 and said in a low voice, "This is it." Then she pressed the doorbell. After waiting for about two minutes, the door opened and a middle-aged woman in her forties stuck her head out and asked, "Who are you?"
Yu Miaomiao took out his ID, handed it through the crack in the door and said, "I'm from the police station. Excuse me, your name is Wu Nan, right? We are here for Dong Xing's case."
Wu Nan took the ID and confirmed it several times before opening the door completely. He handed the ID back to Yu Miaomiao and asked with some confusion, "Isn't it Officer Li who is in charge of my husband's case?"
"We are his subordinates." Han Yun explained.
"Then please come in." Wu Nan asked Yu Miaomiao and Han Yun to enter the house.
After entering, Han Yun first looked around the living room, which was very clean. Wu Nan took out a pair of slippers, and Han Yun recognized them at a glance. The style of these slippers was the same as the slippers placed at the door of Bai Jing's house.
After changing into slippers and walking in, Han Yun glanced at the kitchen, then sat down in the living room with Wu Nan. Yu Miaomiao was the first to say, "Your house is so clean."
"No, I prefer to tidy up my room. If it looks too messy, I will feel uncomfortable. This may be a good thing I inherited from my mother." Wu Nan said with a smile, then walked into the kitchen, took two disposable paper cups, filled them with water, and sat on the sofa to ask: "Didn't we understand everything clearly when we went to the police station last time? This time... why are you here?"
"It looks like you haven't rested well recently." Han Yun looked Wu Nan up and down and found that she had heavy dark circles under her eyes and her skin tone was a little bad.
"How can I sleep well after something like this happened? Ever since Dong Xing's incident, I've had nightmares every night and have hardly had a full night's sleep. Sleeping pills don't help." Wu Nan sighed slightly sadly and said, "Have you found the murderer who killed my husband?"
"The police are working hard on it," Yu Miaomiao replied, and then asked, "We came here mainly to ask about your relationship with your husband."
When Wu Nan heard Yu Miaomiao mention the relationship issue, she was slightly stunned. After two seconds, she said, "What does my husband's death have to do with this?"
"Don't be nervous. We just want to check the situation because we found a student of Dong Xing." Han Yun went straight to the point and said, "Her name is Wang Mengxian. According to her, there seems to be some problems in your relationship with your husband."
