The Devil is Lurking By Your Side

The music in the bar was deafening, and it shook Leng Yu's head faintly. She was originally a woman who likes to be clean, and she has reached her limit after spending so long in the bar.

And at this time, she looked at the man in front of her stuttering, a look of fear of death, which made her even more upset. However, after all, Leng Yu possessed excellent self-cultivation, so he forced his spleen pressure down.

At this time, the big bald man sitting in front of Leng Yu had already seen her impatience, and knew that they could not offend a police officer casually, so he proposed: "Here is a mixed bag, why don't we talk to another place?"

Leng Yu glanced at the bald man, then nodded. As a result, the bald man stood up first, saw him walk to a VIP room in the bar, and pushed the door directly without knocking.

Leng Yu walked behind him, knowing that if this man hadn't had a certain identity and status in such a place, it would be impossible to walk into the VIP wing of the bar casually.

When everyone stepped into the wing room, a man behind Leng Yu closed the wing room door easily, immediately isolating the music outside the door. As the music has been weakened a lot, Leng Yu was slightly relieved, and his ears were finally able to be cleaned for a moment.

She chose a place at the table to sit down at random, but the other four men sat across from her, and none of them wanted to sit in the empty chair beside her.

Leng Yu didn't care too much, and seemed to be used to such a scene. When everyone sat down, Leng Yu swept their cold eyes one by one, and asked, "Who can tell me why this man named Ah Shui was hit by you all over his body?"

The bald man made a calm face and said: "A Shui was not killed by us. He was indeed injured by a few of us, but we did not kill him."

Leng Yu raised his eyebrows and said, "Really? However, we found many wounds on his body, and when he was found, he was already dead."

The implication seems to be that if it wasn't for you to beat him too badly, he shouldn't die, let alone have a chance to be killed by others.

Leng Yu glanced sharply at everyone's faces.

Except for the timid look of the man sitting on the edge, the other three men forcefully pretended to be calm.

Indeed, if they did not wound him, then the murderer who actually killed him would not succeed. In general, even if people were not killed by them, they have become the indirect murderers who killed him.

The bald man squeezed his hands, the blue veins on his arms were exposed, and he still said in a deep voice: "We admit that we did hurt him, but the place where we started is not his key point. Therefore, even if it is him. It’s not our business to be killed by someone!"

Leng Yu saw the muscles on his arm at a glance, and knew that the person in front of him was a practitioner and was familiar with the vitals of the human body. Therefore, when he said that they had avoided vital attacks on the dead, he believed him.

So she turned to the front and asked: "The name of the deceased is Ah Shui?"

The bald man nodded and said, "Yes, his real name is Xu Zhenshui." Then, with a disgusted expression on his face, he said: "He is a pimp in this area, and he is also taking hemp."

As soon as Leng Yu heard this, he immediately took out the phone from his trouser pocket and quickly sent a message to the other person, then raised his head again and said, "You continue."

The bald man said: "He is not doing his job properly and is also contaminated with drugs. That night, he gambled with us, but he lost the gambling and wanted to run the bill, and also took all our money and ran away. He didn't want to. Thinking about whose territory this is, I dared to break ground on Tai Sui! Therefore, we caught up with him from behind, beat him up, and robbed him of all the money before leaving. However, I clearly remember that When we left, he still had a breath, so I'm sure he was not killed by us."

Leng Yu let out an "um" and asked, "Just now you said he was a pimp?"

When the bald man heard her say this, he said viciously: "He is more than just a pimp. He also abducted good family women and sold them all here as prostitutes. Females, but the Public Security Bureau... "

When I said this, I couldn't help but look in Leng Yu's direction. Seeing her face was as cold as frost, I didn't dare to speak any more.

In fact, Leng Yu knew very well what the bald man wanted to say just now. She knows that black sheep will also appear in the Public Security Bureau. During the anti-pornography operation, she also accepted bribes to allow the bullies here to abduct people indiscriminately for trafficking.

She secretly noted the incident and planned to bring the news to Officer Wu in the Public Security Bureau after the case was solved.

Leng Yu glanced at the bald man and continued to ask: "Then do you know any other deeds about Xu Zhenshui? Or do you know where he came from? Then, did he have a deep hatred with others? "

The bald man said: "He is a native of Yangshi, and we often see him always with a woman, so we think that woman is his girlfriend. As for whether he has had enemies with others, that's for sure. He has countless enemies. Everyone wants to kill him, but there is a backer behind this guy, so everyone just beat him and didn’t dare to kill him. In addition to sucking hemp, he also did bad things. Quite a lot, but we can't help it."

Leng Yu raised his eyebrows and said, "Oh? What is the name of the woman who often stays with him?"

Somehow, Leng Yu faintly hoped that they could say Hou Peiting's name. If the woman with him is really Hou Peiting, then she can use this to inquire about Hou Peiting's whereabouts.

However, if you think about it from another angle, if Hou Peiting is really Ah Shui’s girlfriend, then the probability of her becoming a suspect becomes very small from then on.

After all, if she really wanted to kill Ah Shui, she should have killed it a long time ago, without waiting until now.

The bald man didn't know the countless thoughts that Leng Yu had turned in his heart. He just said: "His girlfriend is called Xiaohua, and she is a prostitute."

Just after the bald man had finished speaking, another man sitting beside him suddenly said: "He is a pimp, and his girlfriend is a prostitute, a woman, how do I think these two are a good match? I also think that Xiao Hua might still be instigated by A Shui to become a prostitute!" There was disdain and sneer in the words.

Leng Yu didn't say a word after listening.

After a long time, she suddenly asked: "Have you ever found a young lady?"

"What?!" The four men sitting in front of her widened their eyes at the same time.

Leng Yu sneered and said, "If you have ever looked for a young lady, I would like to ask you about someone."

The bald man frowned and asked, "Who do you want to find?"

Leng Yu said lightly: "I want to find a woman named Hou Peiting."

When Leng Yu said the name, the four men looked blank. Obviously, they had never heard of Hou Peiting's name, let alone met her.

Leng Yu saw their expressions and knew that these people had never seen Hou Peiting.

At the same time, she also made two conclusions about the woman Hou Peiting in her heart.

First: Hou Peiting's name is not very loud in this famous red light district, otherwise the bald guy with a certain status in this area would definitely have heard her name. However, if he hadn't even heard of it, it meant that Hou Peiting might have never been in such a place. She just went in and out of a higher-grade nightclub. Otherwise, even if she had been here before, it might be that she hadn't stayed here for a long time.

Second: If Hou Peiting was the culprit who killed the three dead, then she and Xu Zhenshui must also have a great hatred, but what kind of hatred is this? What kind of involvement did they have?

Leng Yu's mind was running fast at this time.

What kind of involvement and relationship did Ah Shui and Hou Peiting have?

He is a pimp, and she is a wine girl. .

Suddenly, her head flashed: Did Hou Peiting be tricked into this red light district by A Shui when she was a minor? Then, he tricked her into here as a prostitute. Female?

And Hou Peiting also hated Ah Shui because she was forced to act as a prostitute?

If this is really the case, then Hou Peiting's killing of A Shui would be considered excusable.

When she thought of this, she looked up at the four men in front of her and said, "Well, I'm fine here. If you think of anything related to this case, be sure to provide information to the Public Security Bureau."

After Leng Yu finished speaking, he got up and left the private room, and went straight out.

Just after Leng Yu walked out of the bar, the phone in her trouser pocket rang quickly. After she connected it, she asked directly: "Did Xu Zhenshui's girlfriend come to the police station to report the crime these days?"

Opposite Xiao Cheng's voice said: "Yes, boss! She is here again today, in the Public Security Bureau, but she is trembling all over."

Leng Yu said, "Well, I see." Then, she closed the phone.

Xiao Hua turned out to be a drug addict.

Leng Yu came to his car, started the car, and hurried to the police station. After she arrived, she quickly came to the conference hall. When she looked in through the transparent glass window, she saw a very thin woman sitting with her back to her. She was trembling with a woolen sweater on her body.

When Leng Yu pushed the door in, he heard Officer Chen's deep voice asking Xiaohua about the situation.

"What is the relationship between you and Xu Zhenshui?" Police Officer Chen asked, with Xiao Cheng and Huang Lin sitting beside him.

Leng Yu lightened her steps and walked around behind them. When she raised her eyes to Xiaohua, she saw that her cheeks were sunken, her hair was fluffy, the bags under her eyes were extremely deep, and she had dark circles under her eyes. She knew drug addiction at first glance. Profound.

She could even faintly smell a musty smell coming from Xiao Hua, and she didn't know how many days she hadn't bathed.

Xiaohua's voice trembled and said slowly: "I am his girlfriend."

Officer Chen nodded and said, "Your boyfriend Xu Zhenshui is dead. After receiving your report a few days ago, our colleagues searched for him immediately, but there was nothing to follow. It was not until this morning that we His body was found in the garbage dump. After DNA testing, his identity was confirmed, so I called you.

Leng Yu carefully observed Xiao Hua's expression and saw a trace of anxiety on her face, but no sadness. After Xiaohua listened to Officer Chen's explanation, she only heard her muttering: "A Shui is dead... A Shui is dead... Then, who can bring me hemp in the future?"

Xiaohua is deeply addicted to drugs.

She is not concerned with how her boyfriend died.

What she cares about is where she gets drugs in the future.

After seeing her look like this, Officer Chen couldn't help but shook his head, and then asked, "When was the last time you saw Xu Zhenshui?"

Xiao Hua was a little confused. She raised the water glass in front of her. After taking a sip of water, she trembled and said, "Go... last... a week... At that time, he... he... He said that he would buy us drugs as soon as possible... He... He said that if he did another business, he would... There would be an endless stream of hemp for us to smoke. But... .But, I...I waited for him for many days, but he...he...never come back."

At this time, Leng Yu, who was standing behind everyone, suddenly asked, "Business? Is the business you are talking about abducting and selling good women for prostitution?"

After hearing this, Xiao Hua's face changed, and then she lowered her head and said no more.

Leng Yu sighed, walked to the door of the conference hall, turned and looked in the direction of Officer Chen, and said, "I'll leave it to you here. We'll see you later."

After she finished speaking, she opened the door and walked out of the conference hall.

Leng Yu turned a corner and walked to the reception room on the other side. She took out the previously drawn character relationship diagram from her trouser pocket and marked the word "trafficking" next to Ah Shui's name.

She lay on her back in the chair, closed her eyes, and at the same time Hou Peiting's face reappeared in her mind, and the sense of familiarity struck her again in an instant. .
