Chapter 95 Trace Examination
Hearing Luo Xun's words, Chi Xia looked around, and soon, they checked several other rooms and confirmed what Luo Xun had just said.
In this house, the bedding in all rooms is new, including the sofa.
"To understand a woman, just look at her wardrobe and cosmetics." Chi Xia walked back into the bedroom, opened the wardrobe, but frowned.
Luo Xun walked in: "What's wrong?"
"The closet is basically empty." Chi Xia looked back at him with a serious expression.
Luo Xun walked over and saw that there was nothing in the closet except a few men's clothes and a few hangers. There were no women's clothes at all.
"I'll go to the bathroom to check." Chi Xia said, and went into the bathroom again.
Soon, her voice came from the bathroom: "Captain Luo, there are no toiletries related to Zhou Wanrou in the bathroom."
Luo Xun walked in quickly. He glanced around and his eyes fell on the towels and electric toothbrushes on the shelf. "The men's toiletries are complete, and there are only men's clothes in the closet. I just checked, and although there are not many, there are everything from underwear to outerwear."
"That is to say..."
Chi Xia picked up the dark green electric toothbrush and said, "This toothbrush should be a couple's model, but now there is only the male version. Captain Luo, this home has erased all traces of the hostess' life."
Luo Xun entered the shower room and squatted down to check the drain. He snorted, "Even the drain has been cleaned."
Chi Xia has already identified the electric toothbrush through the image recognition on her phone, confirming that this toothbrush is indeed a couple's model. The other model is light blue. She showed Luo Xun the interface of the phone and said, "And the most important point."
Luo Xun also stood up, and their voices rang out in the bathroom at the same time: "Child."
"Yes, son."
Chi Xia said: "There is no sign of a child's life in this house. There are no child supplies, clothes, or even toys. There is nothing."
Luo Xun spoke slowly: "But in the short term, the man's life in this house is normal."
Chi Xia added: "Look, the trash can is new, and the bags are new. Combined with the bed in the master bedroom, I tend to think that this home has gone through a baptism, but the person who did it hasn't had time to enjoy the fruits of his labor yet."
After they left the restroom, Luo Xun said, "Everything should have ended when I finished half of that beer."
He walked aside to call his colleague from the Trace Inspection Department and saw Chi Xia walk to the dining table again, staring at the red wine glass on the table.
Chi Xia stood beside the table. She looked at the two glasses through the bottle of red wine, and vague shadows appeared in her mind.
Someone enters the house happily and finds the wine cabinet with ease. He/she takes out a bottle of red wine and finds two wine glasses, implicitly waiting for the other owner of the wine glasses. But not long after, the expectation turns into disappointment. He/she learns that the other party cannot come, so there is no need to open the bottle of red wine.
He/she felt lost, so he/she went downstairs to buy beer. But just when he/she had finished half of the beer, someone rang the doorbell. Joy and excitement appeared on his/her face, but when he/she opened the door, the face standing in front of him/her was a face that surprised him/her greatly.
There may be new plots, but the final ending will be the same.
The man who drank the beer never returned to the house, and everything remained the same as when he left.
Chi Xia came back to his senses and looked suddenly at the beer can on the coffee table.
Luo Xun made a phone call and took out a plastic bag from under the coffee table with the words "Yonghui Supermarket" written on it.
"I remember there was such a supermarket at the entrance of the community when I came here. I'll go in and ask and see if I can find out anything."
Luo Xun walked towards her: "What did you see just now?"
"What?" Chi Xia looked a little confused.
Luo Xun pointed to the red wine bottle and said, "What do you see through these things?"
The two looked at each other, both understanding what was going on.
Chi Xia chuckled and looked into his eyes: "I can't tell whether it's a man or a woman. The red wine was for waiting for someone to come, but the person he was waiting for broke the appointment. The other party felt disappointed and bought beer. When he was halfway through drinking, the other party left the room and never came back."
"Whether it's the person waiting or the person being waited for, it can't be Zhou Wanrou. I'm more inclined to believe that the person waiting is Pei Xinlu. What about you?" Luo Xun said.
Chi Xia's smile did not fade: "If that's the case, I guess the person Pei Xinlu is waiting for is most likely a woman."
"If this guess is true, then can the changes in this family be explained?" Luo Xun leaned against the wall, and his solemn expression relaxed briefly.
Chi Xia walked to the center of the living room and glanced around slowly again: "No woman can accept that there are , her used sheets, pillows, her clothes, her cosmetics, and even everything that represents her aesthetic taste..."
She continued, "The vases, tablecloths, and sofa covers may have been replaced by someone else's taste. There is no trace of Zhou Wanrou left in this house."
Luo Xun was silent for a while, then suddenly spoke: "So, where is the child? Zhou Wanrou died three months ago. Since Pei Xinlu still lives here, why is there no trace of the child? Pei Xi, where is he now?"
When Luo Xun asked this question, Chi Xia felt inexplicably cold in his heart.
In her subconscious, she didn't feel that the child was safe now.
Otherwise , the traces of children in this house would not be so clean.
Soon, colleagues from the trace inspection department also arrived. Leading the way was Liao Gang, the chief of the trace inspection department. He was not tall and slightly fat, but very agile in his movements, especially his eyebrows which were very distinctive like Crayon Shin-chan.
The first time Chi Xia saw this man, five words came to his mind: flexible fat man.
Luo Xun turned sideways and whispered to Chi Xia: "Liao Gang, the head of the Trace Inspection Section, has a nickname, Titanium Alloy."
"Titanium alloy?" Chi Xia covered her mouth: "Why?"
"Because of my eyes..."
Liao Gang's hearty and deep voice came over, and he pointed at his eyes with two slightly bent fingers: "I can see any ghost thing. Of course, the premise is that those things must really exist."
Chi Xia smiled and greeted him: "Officer Liao."
Liao Gang smiled kindly, but his hands did not stop moving at all: "I heard that a girl has come to the task force, she is good at psychology. In essence, we are good at the same things."
Chi Xia thought about it and felt that what he said was very clever. She nodded: "This is very insightful. I totally agree."
Liao Gang smiled and waved his hands at the two of them: "Alright, leave this to us, you two can do whatever you need to do, I promise to clean up this house for you."
Luo Xun patted his shoulder and said, "Thank you for your hard work. We will withdraw first because we still have a mission."
"see you lala."
Liao Gang freed up one hand and waved to them: "By the way, I sincerely hope that everything goes well for you."
Before leaving, Luo Xun flicked his head and said, "Don't be so sincere. Every time you are sincere, I will be disappointed."
Liao Gang laughed out loud: "Fate, it's indescribable."
Luo Xun rolled his eyes and walked out with Chi Xia.
"Officer Liao is very interesting." When the two were in the elevator, Chi Xia was still very curious about Liao Gang.
Luo Xun looked disgusted, but he said: "Well, he and Ning Yi can be regarded as the treasures of the police station, but they are picky and sometimes want to cut in line, but they have money but nowhere to spend it."
Chi Xia became even more curious: "What does Officer Liao like to eat?"
"Large intestine." Luo Xun said.
Chi Xia was slightly surprised and was stunned for two seconds: "Large intestines... are they easy to buy, right?"
Luo Xun snorted coldly.
He said: "He wants the other party to make the intestines himself."
Chi Xia remained silent until the elevator door opened, then he said, "That's a bit embarrassing..."
But Officer Liao really has a unique personality. Chi Xia feels that his fresh and refined personality complements his good looks.
It's a perfect match.
She wanted to be good friends with him...
