Sun Shaoping answered a call and walked over, "Captain Han, Du Shun is here?"
Han Bin had an impression of this name, "Is he the one who reported the case?"
"Yes."
"Director Sun, please find an office, we need to take his statement."
"No problem, please follow me."
Sun Shaoping led Han Bin and the others to the office on the second floor.
The office was about thirty to forty square meters with a square table.
"Oh, this room is quite spacious."
"We usually have meetings here." Sun Shaoping replied, "Captain Han, please wait a moment, I'll call Du Shun."
After a while, Sun Shaoping came in with a man. Du Shun looked about fifty years old and wore black-rimmed glasses. He nodded slightly to everyone, "Hello police comrades."
Sun Shaoping took the initiative to introduce, "This is Captain Han."
"Captain Han, this is Du Shun, our funeral parlor's beautician."
Han Bin was stunned for a moment before he realized that this beautician was not the beautician he knew.
"Captain Han, what can I do for you?"
"Sit down and talk." Han Bin pointed to the opposite side of the table, "We invited you here to understand the case of Lu Yue-er's missing body."
"Oh, it's this case again. Didn't we make it clear before?"
"There are some new developments in this case, we need to verify it again. Please take a statement."
Du Shun took off his glasses and wiped the lens, "I see. No problem, I'll cooperate."
Han Bin flipped open the notebook, "You're the body beautician?"
"Yes, I'm responsible for putting makeup on the client's body so that we can leave with more dignity."
"Then you should be very familiar with Lu Yue-er's appearance and body shape."
"Of course, because I was the one who put makeup on her."
Han Bin took out the screenshot of the female corpse from the medical school, "Take a look at the body in this photo."
Han Bin directly handed the photo over. This person was a ruthless person, there was no need for any hints.
Du Shun closed his glasses and when he saw the photo, his face didn't change at all. After a while, he showed some surprise, "The body in this photo is Lu Yue-er, you've found her?"
"Are you sure it's Lu Yuee's body?"
Du Shun's tone was firm. "I can't be wrong. The facial features are definitely hers."
Han Bin put away the photo and asked, "Is there anything unusual about Lu Yuee's body?"
Du Shun thought for a moment. "Because she didn't die of natural causes, her expression was a little twisted when she was sent here. I definitely had to do some cleaning, but other than that, there's nothing else."
"Before Lu Yue-er's body was stolen, did you notice anything different about the funeral parlor?"
"No."
"What about the other three people who were on duty with you?"
"It's quite normal."
Sun Shaoping could not help but interrupt, "Think about it again. If everything was normal, how could the body have been stolen?"
Du Shun hesitated for a moment. "I … really didn't find anything."
Han Bin changed the question. "Who suggested playing mahjong that night?"
Du Shun scratched his head. "We used to play mahjong when we were free."
"Every day?"
"That's not true either."
"Since they don't play every day, it means that someone has organized a mahjong game. Who organized it? "
Du Shun wiped the sweat off his forehead. "Actually, it's not really an organization. I just suggested it and everyone agreed."
"Who suggested it first?"
Du Shun sighed. "Me."
"Captain Han, the case of the body theft has nothing to do with me. I don't have any other hobbies other than playing mahjong. Curator Sun also knows about this. If you don't believe me, you can ask him."
Sun Shaoping answered, "Yes, I can testify to this. Old Du really likes playing mahjong. It's not just a day or two."
The job of a body beautician was not an ordinary person, and it was not easy to recruit them. Sun Shaoping still valued him.
Han Bin made a note in his notebook and continued to ask, "When the suspect stole the body, he deliberately used a balloon to block the camera. Who moved the balloon before the police arrived?"
Du Shun did not hesitate. "It wasn't me."
"Then who was it?"
"I have to think about this. I didn't pay much attention at the time …" Du Shun pinched his forehead and was silent for a while.
"I think it was Han Weilong."
Han Bin made a mental note of the name. "When the four of you were playing mahjong, who sat near the door?"
Du Shun thought for a while. "I think … it was Han Weilong too."
"What does Han Weilong do at the funeral parlor?"
"Security."
Sun Shaoping said, "Just now, Han Weilong sent me a message saying that he'll be here soon. I'll go out and pick him up. "
Han Bin nodded and asked the next question, "Master Du, how long have you been working here?"
"A few years, about seven or eight years. To be honest, this isn't a good job. Most people don't want to do it, but the pay is okay. "
"Among the four of you, who is tight on money or a big spender?"
"Zheng Jianguo borrowed money from me, but I didn't lend it to him. If you're talking about a big spender … it's probably me. " Du Shun added, "Actually, I don't spend that much. It's just that compared to them, my conditions are better and I earn more money than them."
"You're considered a professional in this industry. What do you think the purpose of those people stealing corpses?"
"We've discussed this in private. Generally speaking, very few people would steal corpses. I've worked in the funeral parlor for so many years, and this is the first time I've encountered such a thing. The corpses don't have much value, so it's not worth it to steal them." Du Shun pushed up his glasses and continued, "However, if we have to find a reasonable reason, I think it's more likely to be a Minghun."
Bao Xing thought it was a bit unbelievable. "There's such a thing?"
"Some remote places have backward thinking, so they have this custom."
Bao Xing frowned. "What era is this? I don't think it's possible. Besides, our Qin Island is an advanced and civilized city. There shouldn't be such a bad custom."
Han Bin touched his chin. He felt that what Du Shun said made sense.
The corpses themselves weren't worth much, and most people wouldn't think of stealing corpses. However, the person who wrote the riddle was definitely not an ordinary person. Perhaps they really would do such a thing.
Han Bin probed, "Master Du, you've been in this industry for so many years. Have you encountered such a situation?"
Du Shun licked his lips. "Actually, I've only heard about it from others. I don't know much about this kind of thing."
"It's okay. Tell me what you know."
Du Shun hesitated for a moment before briefly explaining the situation.
