A small tin house stood silently in the dust, with its back against a small earth slope, and there were no other buildings around.
This makes it look like an isolated island.
At a glance, Lao He's residence is much smaller than Wang Laowu's. From the outside, it is actually the same size as Li Yang's. But after seeing the interior furnishings through the window, one would have the illusion that Lao He's house is bigger.
In fact, it is a visual error caused by the clean and neat layout.
Yes, Lao He’s house has windows.
So far, Ranran has only seen windows in Ning Wu’s luxurious tin house. Lao He is the second construction site resident with permanent windows and the first worker to have windows.
Windows are obviously not a standard feature of these workers' residences. This must be something that Lao He figured out himself.
At the first sight of the residence, Ranran already had a preliminary impression of Lao He, whom she had never met before - he was a person who knew how to live well.
When they got closer, Ranran and the others found that the thin iron door in front of the house was not closed, but ajar.
Shen Dinghai reached out and knocked in surprise, "Excuse me, is Mr. He here?"
No answer.
A cool breeze blew into the tin house and blew open the thin iron door.
The house was empty.
"He's not here. He can't possibly still be working on the construction site, right?" Shen Dinghai looked at Ran Ran strangely. "He doesn't know that Wang Laowu is dead?"
As the sun was setting, Ran Ran glanced at it and said, "Because of Wang Laowu's death, today's work has stopped. We have been busy for so long since the incident, and it is almost time for dinner..."
"It's unlikely that Lao He is still on the construction site."
"Even if he didn't know the news, he should be able to find out the abnormality without other workers."
Shen Dinghai made a bitter face, "He is neither at home nor at the construction site, so where can he go?"
Ran Ran suddenly had an idea, "Could it be that he went to feed the puppies?"
Shen Dinghai said ruthlessly, "I think it's more like he's fleeing from the crime..."
"Li Yang was killed late at night. By the time someone found out, he had already dealt with all the clues and could disguise the fact that it was done by a rope-strangling ghost more perfectly."
"But Wang Laowu died in broad daylight. He certainly didn't have that much time to do anything. So he was afraid of being discovered, so he just picked up the bucket and ran away."
Ran Ran was helpless, "You have already preset your position, this is just your guess."
"I don't care about my stance or not. Cousin, you can always guess right, so I can definitely guess right once too!"
Ranran couldn't do anything about him and just wanted to find the stray puppy raised by Lao He as soon as possible.
When they turned around, they saw a tall figure walking towards them.
Shen Dinghai's eyes lit up, "Could it be Lao He?!"
The man was getting closer and closer, and his destination was clear, which was the lonely tin hut behind Ranran and the others, without any deviation in direction.
Shen Dinghai was already excited, "Look at this body! It's almost catching up with me. No wonder that worker just said it was easy for Lao He to beat Li Yang to death!"
"This physique is enough to kill a bachelor!"
He rubbed his hands excitedly, feeling as if he was about to catch the murderer.
"I must see if there is any injury on his palm!"
The man finally came closer, his face serious and dignified, until he saw Ning Wu standing behind Ran Ran, his frown relaxed.
"Hello, boss."
No matter how many times Shen Dinghai heard it, he always felt it was strange for a grown man to call a school-age kid "boss".
He would rather believe that these burly workers were calling for the white hats in Ning Wu's hand.
It's reasonable to call the white safety helmet worn on the head "head"!
Ning Wu nodded calmly, "I'm sorry to disappoint you two, he is not Lao He, but Sun Zhiqiang from the surveying team."
Shen Dinghai suddenly realized, "Oh! It's that team leader! Hello, Team Leader Sun!"
Shen Dinghai extended his hand in a familiar manner, but Sun Zhiqiang on the opposite side did not respond immediately. Ranran tilted his head, a little confused.
Is it because of the murder case? People here seem to be more wary of outsiders. Sun Zhiqiang suddenly grabbed Shen Dinghai's hand and shook it, because he just saw Ning Wu's indifferent eyes move away from the little girl and look at him unexpectedly.
Although it was a calm look, Sun Zhiqiang felt that it contained a warning.
Is the administrator supporting these two strangers? Who are they?
And...Sun Zhiqiang really wanted to say that it was his illusion. He had never felt such a strong aura from the administrator.
I used to be a heartless college student, who was often fooled by him. Why is it that now...
changed……
Shen Dinghai was unaware of the undercurrent and said, "Excuse me for disturbing you. We came here to ask Mr. He Heliu some questions, but he doesn't seem to be at home?"
Sun Zhiqiang said calmly: "Lao He is gone."
"Leaving? Where to?"
"I don't know. He didn't say hello to me. He hasn't come to register with me for several days. The workers in the same group haven't seen him either."
Shen Dinghai immediately turned his head and said to Ran Ran in an exaggerated voice: "Fear! Crime! Escape!"
Ran Ran ignored Shen Dinghai and just frowned at Sun Zhiqiang, "Excuse me, when did he leave?"
"October 13th."
Shen Dingha counted on his fingers, "Four days ago, wasn't that..."
"The day Li Yang died?!"
Sun Zhiqiang nodded, "It was indeed that day. No one has seen Lao He since October 13th."
Shen Dinghai almost cried out, "Oh my god! This is a complete case of fleeing from the crime! After killing Li Yang, he just ran away!"
Ran Ran shook her head, "But Wang Laowu died today."
"Even if Wang Laowu dies today, it won't prevent Lao He from killing Li Yang. Besides, Lao He can just go back to the construction site and kill someone before leaving. If he does it inside the construction site, there will be a lot of people watching him! If he kills someone outside the construction site, there won't be so many eyes on him."
"You mean, Lao He killed Wang Laowu on his way back to the construction site, and then put Wang Laowu's body on the motorcycle and drove the motorcycle into the construction site?"
Shen Dinghai nodded hurriedly, "This is completely feasible. An electric bike can go a long way just by twisting the handlebars, not to mention a motorcycle."
Ran Ran recalled carefully, "Now that you mention it, Wang Laowu and the motorcycle were indeed found not far from the construction site gate."
Shen Dinghai was convinced of his idea and was so excited that he wanted to rush to the scene right away.
Ran Ran also had this plan. They were busy sending Yang Juan and the children back to their residence, so they just took a quick look.
We really should check the scene again.
Before leaving, Ranran asked Sun Zhiqiang again.
"Do you have any other information you can provide us about Lao He?"
Sun Zhiqiang was very calm, "No information, I am not familiar with Lao He."
Ran Ran frowned, "Your worker left without saying a word, have you ever thought of looking for him?"
Sun Zhiqiang smiled and said, "What's so easy to find? Our construction site is backed by the Shen Group, and the wages are paid every day. I think there are a lot of people working here. It must be difficult. There are so many people lining up to help me."
"But it's easy to leave. I'm so happy that someone is willing to vacate my position."
Seeing that he was becoming more and more relaxed.
Ran Ran frowned, "So you are happy that Lao He left?"
"Why are you unhappy?"
Ran Ran suddenly asked: "Don't you suspect that he is the murderer?"
Sun Zhiqiang was startled, and said slowly: "Isn't it the Public Security Bureau's business whether he is a murderer?"
"What does it have to do with me?" (End of this chapter)
