The next day, the Third Oil Production Plant suddenly released a piece of news.
The police offered a reward to the workers and residents of the plant for clues to the female corpse case under the bridge in Hongqi Town. Whoever could provide the police with a clue and assist the police in solving the case would be rewarded 50,000 yuan in cash.
In addition, while offering the reward, the police also revealed some details of Chi Meixin's murder, including the tricycle that was stolen by the murderer, the place where Chi Meixin was attacked, and even Chi Meixin's encounter with the woman in red before she died.
Once the news came out, it immediately caused a sensation. In just one day, everyone in the plant knew about it. Almost everyone was talking about the case.
Soon, the plant cooperated with the police and issued a reward to the workers. If anyone who knew could help the police solve the case, the plant would reward 50,000 yuan.
In this way, it added fuel to the fire, causing the entire factory area to boil.
Among them, there were some busybodies who started asking each other, trying to find clues and receive the reward from the police and the plant.
Ever since the announcement of the reward, the police received some clues. Wu Xiumin, Captain Chou, and the others were verifying them one by one.
Contrary to Wu Xiumin's busy schedule, Zhao Yu used the entire day and night to get a good night's sleep in the hotel!
When he woke up, he ate, then continued to sleep. He slept until the sun and the moon were dim.
By the time he had enough sleep and woke up, he could no longer tell whether it was day or night!
Ah oh …
He let out an enviable yawn, as if he had slept for a thousand years.
He rubbed his eyes and subconsciously observed the environment.
Fortunately, there was no melodramatic scene of Xi Mengna lying on the other side of the bed. It seemed that this woman was quite sensible. She knew that he was too tired and needed to rest, so she didn't pester him.
But …
This thought only lasted for three seconds, when he suddenly heard the sound of running water coming from the bathroom!
Holy sh * t!
It can't be, right?
Zhao Yu quickly got out of bed and opened the curtains in annoyance. He realized that it was dark outside. It was actually nighttime.
He looked at his watch. It was 7: 45 p.m.
Muddy!
Hearing the sound of running water, he quickly looked at his clothes. He was wearing pajamas, so there didn't seem to be any signs of being molested.
In order to confirm, Zhao Yu stumbled into the bathroom and saw a slender woman's figure in the mist.
It's over, it's over …
Zhao Yu's heart sank. He didn't know if he would do something stupid in his daze. How could Xi Mengna take advantage of others when they were down?
Listening to the sound of water splashing, he stole a glance, but because of the thick fog, he could not see anything …
All right!
Zhao Yu clenched his teeth and made up his mind to leave the bathroom.
Then he pretended to be calm and put on his clothes, opened the door and left the room.
Sigh!
What was going on?
On the way to the police station, Zhao Yu regretted and blamed himself. This time, there was no way he could clear his name. How was he going to explain to Miao Ying?
He didn't drink or take any medicine. He shouldn't have done anything wrong to Meow Meow, right?
But … a single man and a single woman, and they were even taking a shower!
How could he explain himself?
Also …
If I'm really misunderstood, I might as well, might as well … sigh …
Zhao Yu returned to the Special Investigation Group office of the Manchurian Police Station.
As soon as he entered, he saw Xi Mengna writing something on a whiteboard …
Seeing Zhao Yu come in, Xi Mengna's eyes widened. "Zhao Yu, you finally woke up!"
"Hey!" Zhao Yu quickly pointed at Xi Mengna and shouted, "What are you doing? That's my whiteboard! "
"No, no, no, look carefully …" Xi Mengna quickly clarified. "This is a new one. Your whiteboard acrobatics is over there!
"Didn't I get some new clues? I wanted to learn from you and analyze them. Hehehe …"
"Mm …" Suddenly, Zhao Yu reacted. He stared at Xi Mengna in surprise and asked, "You … You didn't take a shower?"
"No way!" Xi Mengna was shocked. She quickly sniffed herself and asked, "Does it smell?"
Zhao Yu's question immediately attracted the attention and curiosity of Wu Xiumin and the others.
"No … No …" Zhao Yu quickly waved his hands. "It doesn't smell …"
"Ah?" Xi Mengna exclaimed. "It smells bad? Aiya, it's all your fault. You didn't pay me, and I used up all the perfume … "
"No … No …" Zhao Yu scratched his head. "I … I mean … Sigh …"
He didn't know what to say. There was only a huge question mark left in his head. If Xi Mengna was in the office, who was the one taking a shower just now?
"Really? Really? " At this time, Ran Tao, who was never afraid of trouble, suddenly jumped out from behind the whiteboard. He approached Xi Mengna and said, "Let me smell it, let me smell it …"
"You …" Xi Mengna quickly moved away.
"Isn't it quite fragrant?" Ran Tao laughed and disappeared behind the whiteboard.
"It seems …" Xi Mengna put down the pen and shook her head. "I really have to take a shower! Zhao Yu, oh, Team Leader Zhao, give me your room card. I'll go to your room to take a shower … "
"Mm … Well …" Although Zhao Yu didn't know what to do, his natural reflexes saved him. He immediately put on a curious face and pointed at the whiteboard to change the topic. "Why … When I was sleeping, there was a new clue?"
"Mm, it's hard to say now!" Xi Mengna fell into Zhao Yu's trap. She immediately followed Zhao Yu's train of thought and said, "We have to wait for Captain Chou to verify the information!
But … I have to say … "Xi Mengna gave Zhao Yu a thumbs up." You really saved a lot of effort by posting a reward! It's much easier than going door to door and investigating one by one! "
"Then …" Zhao Yu moved closer to the whiteboard and said, "Tell me, which clue do you think looks real?
"Could it be that the murderer really killed the wrong person?"
"No!" Xi Mengna shook her head decisively. She then pointed at a string of words on the whiteboard and said, "I think this looks a bit like …"
"No way!" Zhao Yu scratched his head again. "You actually wrote in English?"
"What's wrong?" Xi Mengna blinked her big cute eyes. "Don't tell me you don't understand it. The English you spoke to Long Di was very accurate!"
Red …
Zhao Yu realized that he could recognize the English word. It meant red.
Red?
There was another word behind it, which meant woman.
"No way!" Zhao Yu pointed at the word and said, "You found a clue about the woman in red?"
"I'm not sure," Xi Mengna said. "This afternoon, an old lady came to the police station to report that she knew a story about a woman in red …"
"No way!" Zhao Yu grinned and said, "There really was a woman in red?"
"Captain Chou said that the old lady was very energetic and logical. She didn't look like she was talking nonsense. However, this matter dates back to 1979 …" Xi Mengna said.
"What the …" Zhao Yu wiped his sweat. "A woman in red in 1979? Isn't that nonsense?"
"I don't know …" Xi Mengna smacked her lips and said, "But … It seems to be quite irrelevant, but after listening to it, I feel that it's a little bit interesting …"
