Mystery Hunter - Chapter 316
[Chapter 316 Rumors are hard to break]
In less than an hour or so, Zhao Jie hurried back home. From the large beads of sweat on his forehead, it can be seen that he came back in a hurry. After closing the door, Zhao Jie’s glasses were immediately filled with water mist. Zhao Jie had to take off his glasses and wipe them with the corner of his clothes.
Jiang He sat on the corner of the sofa and looked at Zhao Jie calmly. While wiping his glasses, Zhao Jie squinted to observe the crowd. Jiang He noticed that Zhao Jie was wearing a platinum ring on the ring finger of his right hand. With the ring found on Zhang Zong’s hand, the two are relatively the same in color and style, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it is a pair of rings.
Zhao Jie finally cleaned his glasses and asked, “Are you the police?”
Shao Lao stood up first, he stretched out his hand, and said to Zhao Jie, “Hello, we are from the Criminal Police Department of the Public Security Bureau, this time I came to you to find out about the situation.”
Zhao Jie did not shake hands, but put the glasses back on the bridge of his nose: “Comrade police, I don’t know why you are here this time.
” This time?” Jiang He immediately heard the key words in Zhao Jie’s words, and said, “Then that means, the police have looked for you before?”
Zhao Jie seemed a little flustered, and he coughed twice: ” No, why did you come to my house?”
Zhao Jie’s grandmother said, “Comrade police officer, Zhao Jie is a good boy in our family. He has never done anything bad. Did you make a mistake? ”
Old Shao smiled, turned to the grandmother and said, “Old sister, I didn’t say anything bad that Zhao Jie did, we just came to find out about the situation.” The
grandmother nodded and said, “Grandson, we are in good health.” Don’t be afraid of the shadow, you can answer whatever the police comrade asks you.”
“Sit down.” Shao Lao looked at Zhao Jie and said, “Zhao Jie, my team member also pointed it out just now, you don’t have to hide anything. The police have been here before. Why did I come to you? But it will undoubtedly take a little more effort, and time is racing against time now.”
Mr. Shao sat down again: “Now I have something to tell you, although we haven’t investigated it yet. , but I can tell you clearly now, no matter what happened, you must tell me, otherwise, you are likely to be in danger.”
“Dangerous?” Zhao Jie looked at Shao Lao and said, “There is danger, can you? What’s the danger? Don’t come here, don’t you come again, okay? We just want a peaceful life.”
Seeing Zhao Jie’s hesitant refusal to speak, Shao Lao sighed and took out the ring Said: “This ring should be on your wife’s hand, right?”
Veteran Shao put the ring in Zhao Jie’s hand: “You don’t have to rush to refuse, you should take a serious look.”
“This ring, no, I don’t Know this ring.” Zhao Jie hurriedly put the ring on Shao Lao’s hand, his head like a rattle.
Jiang He frowned, he stood up, and asked, “Zhao Jie, your lie is too clumsy. Since we came to you, it means that we have found out who the owner of this ring is. A man can only buy one ring in a lifetime, did you know? We found the number of the ring, and you bought this ring.” The
grandmother took the ring from Lao Shao’s hand, She held it up and kept observing in the sun. She narrowed her eyes and almost pushed the ring into her eye socket. Finally, the old grandmother said, “No, grandson, isn’t this the ring you bought for Yueyue? It’s not cheap. Ah, why are you in the hands of these police officers.”
“Oh.” The grandmother patted her thigh: “Grandson, you have to thank these police comrades. They brought you back what you lost. No wonder I remember. In the beginning, Yueyue always treasured this ring and always carried it with her, why haven’t she been wearing it in recent months, her feelings have been lost.”
Shao Lao smiled and said, “Yes, old sister, this ring belongs to your granddaughter-in-law. Take it.
”
“Zhao Jie, can you tell us what happened now?” Jiang He said to Zhao Jie.
Zhao Jie looked at everyone, then at his grandmother, and finally nodded as if he had made up his mind, but he said to his grandmother first: “Grandma, go back to your room to rest first, and I will chat with these police comrades. Let’s chat.”
“Hey.” The grandmother nodded: “I’m old, and I can’t stand my waist and legs for a while. I’ve found the ring. I’ll put it away for you and my granddaughter-in-law, so don’t lose it. You guys talk Let’s talk.”
Zhao Jie smiled and helped grandma into the room, closed the door, and walked over with a serious face.
Shao Lao gave up a seat: “Sit down, I don’t know what happened, but looking at you, it doesn’t seem like a trivial matter.”
“It’s dead.” Zhao Jie said almost gritted his teeth.
“A dead person?” Jiang He pressed, “What the hell is going on?”
“Can I smoke a cigarette?” Zhao Jie asked.
Shao Lao took out a box of cigarettes from his pocket: “It doesn’t matter, I’m an old smoker.
” It happened three months ago. One night three months ago, I was working overtime in the company. My grandmother went back to the country and only my wife was at home. It should have been after eleven o’clock in the evening, because we were on the seventeenth floor. I’m not afraid of thieves or anything. Three months ago, it was still September, and the weather was still a little hot, so my wife slept with the window open.”
Zhao Jie frowned, and suddenly threw the cigarette on the ground viciously: “Who knows how to be so unlucky. You should have seen it when you came up, there is an escape staircase between these two buildings, because a fire broke out in one building. When the time comes, you can leave from this escape stair. That is to say, but every household is afraid that the thief will steal something and run away from this escape stair, so the doors on both sides are locked, which means that this escape stair is just a decoration, and it is not at all. It doesn’t work.”
“But who would have thought that the hostess of a house on the 17th floor would be quietly with other men. As a result, her man suddenly came home from a business trip that night, and the lover had nowhere to hide, so he could only open the window. He jumped to the escape stairs. But the man in that house also noticed something was wrong. As soon as he pulled the curtains, he saw the kid walking from the escape stairs to the second building.”
Zhao Jie sighed heavily: “Our house is on the seventeenth floor, you said it by coincidence. Unfortunately, it happened to be on this side of the escape stairs. The man wanted to chase, and the lover wanted to run. He panicked and saw the open window of my bedroom, so he wanted to step on the stairs and turn in through my window to escape. But The escape stairs are not designed for this purpose. The doors are all in the corridor, and there must be some distance between them and the windows of my house. It is easy to jump down from the window to the escape stairs, but jump up from the stairs to the window. It ‘s not that easy.”
“He fell to his death?” Yuan Jun asked.
Zhao Jie glanced at Yuan Jun, and sighed again: “If it was really like that, it wouldn’t be so troublesome. He jumped up, but he didn’t jump up, but he grabbed the edge of the window with one hand, and his whole body was hanging in the air. On the window. This time he can’t get up, and he can’t get down.”
“My wife naturally heard it and woke up. How could she not be afraid when she saw someone on the window, and this person was about to fall. I went down. My wife is also kind-hearted. Although I don’t know what happened, I can’t just watch this man fall, so I quickly grabbed him with my hands.”
Zhao Jie grabbed his hair: “My wife is weak. Woman, how can you have the strength to pull a big man up. After less than half a minute of stalemate, my wife lost the strength, and the man couldn’t hold on either. The two of them lost the strength in their hands. going to fall.”
“My wife saw someone in the window of a building, and called that person to help, but the person immediately closed the window and pretended that he didn’t see anything. That person was the husband next door, and of course he refused to save the lover. The man finally fell, and when he fell, he happened to pull off my wife’s ring. On the seventeenth floor, he fell directly and died.”
“At that time, Peng’s voice was very loud, and many people were shocked. Hearing this, they all came out to see. My wife was also frightened, so she quickly called the police. Later, the police came to my house many times, just to investigate this matter.”
Zhao Jie beat the table and said, “The police comrades are also very good. The ability was investigated in a few days. In the end, no one is responsible. It belongs to the feeling that this man committed suicide by himself. After all, no one forced him. Anyway, the case was finally closed like this, and the family members did not respond. It is estimated that I also feel ashamed that I fell to my death by doing such a thing, and I don’t want to speak up.”
“What happened later?” Jiang He asked.
“Later, not long after the case, the house was replaced. I heard that the house was sold, maybe it was unlucky. We just bought this house for a short time, and we didn’t want to sell it, so we continued to live. But you don’t know what those people said, they all said that my wife did something bad. When I came back, there was nothing I could do. My wife pushed her lover down, but no one saw what happened, so I The wife was acquitted.”
Zhao Jie scolded: “It’s really fucking, isn’t this nonsense? The police have investigated it clearly, and the wife of the deceased agrees with the police, saying that his husband was indeed with the woman in the building. I don’t know. But I don’t know who made the rumor first, that my wife did this kind of thing, and my wife was pointed at me every day, but we have no way to explain.”
“Really, we only If I want a peaceful life, if only my wife had closed the window that night, this kind of thing would not have happened.” Zhao Jie looked helpless and angry: “You said that the police always come to my house, and the neighbors will be troubled by it. Everyone thinks that the rumor is true, if you don’t believe it, you can go to the sub-bureau police station and ask what the truth is.”
“In other words, your wife has been wronged,” Jiang He said.
“Yes.” Zhao Jie sighed.
Jiang He stood up and shouted, “No, contact your wife right now.”
