Chapter 61: Cleverly Investigating the Tao Family

On the morning of the 18th, You Xinfa dragged his sleepy body and prepared to go downstairs to the Jiangnan Branch. He had been interrogating He Jian in the hospital ward all night last night, but who knew the other party was a "copper pea" (tough nut to crack) that couldn't be smashed or boiled!

After tossing for half the night, the other party simply dismissed them with one sentence: He kidnapped the person alone, and the money was taken by someone in the chaos!

Seeing that the other party wouldn't loosen his mouth for a while, You Xinfa wasn't in a hurry. He didn't believe that anyone wouldn't loosen their mouth! "Humph, humph," he sneered in his heart. Seeing that there were still three or four hours before dawn, he went back home to catch up on some sleep.

Just as he went out, he heard his pager ringing. It showed a row of text: Team Leader You, Tao Xiaoyong is back! Call back quickly! He remembered the phone number behind it was from the Residents' Committee of the Jiangnan Chemical Plant!

He turned around and rushed home in one step! He picked up the phone on the table and dialed back. The phone was answered after just one ring: "Is this Team Leader You?" A strange woman's voice came from the phone. You Xinfa recognized it was the director of the Residents' Committee, Director Jiang, deliberately pressing her throat. You Xinfa smiled bitterly and said: "I am. Director Jiang, you said Tao Xiaoyong is home? Did you just see him?" He was worried that Tao Xiaoyong had returned last night or in the middle of the night, and he might be going out at this moment!

Director Jiang on the other side still used a very low and mysterious voice: "No! He just came back, we have been watching his house!"

You Xinfa couldn't help but be moved. Although this big sister was a bit talkative, her seriousness about this matter really made him admire!

"Ah! Thank you for your hard work! In this case, I will arrive within 15 minutes. Please keep watching him, try not to alert him!"

After hanging up the phone, he immediately dialed the phone of the special case team leader, Wang Feihong. After quickly reporting the situation, he hurriedly ran downstairs, rode his motorcycle, and flew toward the family courtyard of the Jiangnan Chemical Plant.

When he arrived at the entrance of the family courtyard, he saw Director Jiang rushing out of the guard room, which startled You Xinfa, who was unprepared!

Director Jiang pulled You Xinfa and was about to go upstairs. You Xinfa hurriedly reached out to stop him and said: "Director Jiang, wait a moment. In this case, Tao Xiaoyong is currently just our suspect. Please cooperate and get him out of the house. We will go in and check first."

Director Jiang nodded with an understanding expression and said: "How much time do you need?"

You Xinfa said: "It's best to have a long time, how about an hour? Can you do it?"

Director Jiang thought for a while, waved his hand, and said: "Okay! This matter is left to me! You say! When to act!" The whole person looked heroic! For a while, You Xinfa was a bit dumbfounded!

He asked cautiously: "Director Jiang, tell me your plan, so I can have a bottom line in my heart." He didn't know what method this big sister had, and he had no bottom line in his heart at all.

Director Jiang said seriously: "Team Leader You, don't look down on me. I used to be a militia captain. I participated in catching spies and arresting agents before. It's not a small problem to handle this little guy!" Then she told her plan to You Xinfa. After listening, You Xinfa admired this big sister even more. It was truly a case of "experts are among the people"!

The action plan was finalized, and the next folk expert, Director Jiang, was about to make a move!

Director Jiang took another big sister of similar age and calmly came to the 5th floor, "bang-bang-bang" knocking on Tao Xiaoyong's door.

After a while, an impatient voice came from inside: "Who is it?" It was Tao Xiaoyong.

Director Jiang shouted at the top of his lungs: "Xiao Tao! I am Director Jiang from the Residents' Committee. Open the door, I have good news for you!"

Tao Xiaoyong seemed to be sleeping. After a while, there was still no movement in the room. Director Jiang continued to knock on the door and shouted his name. Perhaps he couldn't stand the noise, the door opened with a "creak," and a young man who looked scholarly and handsome appeared at the door.

He rubbed his sleepy eyes and yawned: "Director Jiang, what's the matter? I just had a good dream! You are in such a hurry!"

Director Jiang said seriously: "Oh! What dream are you having in broad daylight, what are you sleeping for! Let me tell you, the subsidy for laid-off workers I applied for you is coming down soon, but you need to fill in some forms, and you need to sign and draw a seal, etc. Today is the last deadline for submitting materials in the afternoon. Hurry up and go to the Residents' Committee with me to get it done!"

Tao Xiaoyong knew about this. Someone was indeed applying for it some time ago. He thought, "If it's given for free, don't take it for free!" So he said: "Oh, thank you, Director Jiang. I'll put on some clothes and go."

"Okay, then hurry up!" After Director Jiang finished speaking, he winked at the big sister beside him. The big sister understood and immediately ran downstairs "dong-dong-dong." After a while, she appeared at Tao's door panting. Seeing Director Jiang, she deliberately said loudly: "Sigh! Director Jiang! What a coincidence, are you looking for Tao Xiaoyong too?"

At this time, Tao Xiaoyong put on his clothes and pushed the door out. The panting big sister said: "Oh, Xiao Yong, you are finally at home. Are you going out? Your balcony has been leaking water into my house. It just so happens that you are at home today. I'll bring a master to take a look!"

Tao Xiaoyong was about to say that he was going to the Residents' Committee. Director Jiang continued: "In this case, Xiao Yong, I will take you to the Residents' Committee to fill out the form, and let Auntie Zhang take someone to check the balcony at home. Wherever it leaks, just fix it today. Anyway, upstairs and downstairs, it's the same factory. What are you worried about!"

Tao Xiaoyong didn't like to talk on weekdays, but that didn't mean he didn't know these neighbors in the same factory. He thought for a while and said: "The house is messy, don't move my things around!" Then he went downstairs with Director Jiang.

You Xinfa, who was disguised as a maintenance worker following Auntie Zhang, breathed a sigh of relief. He entered Tao Xiaoyong's house, and Auntie Zhang guarded the door like a guard. You Xinfa smiled and shook his head, then immediately observed this old but very clean two-bedroom apartment that was visually about 50 square meters.

Looking at this, he really found some clues! There was a wooden cutting board on the kitchen counter in Tao's house. One side of the cutting board had obvious concave marks, which looked like it was often used. Looking closely, there were a few deep cutting marks on the cutting board. Turning the cutting board over, he saw some black pollution on the back. You Xinfa was puzzled, when his eyes swept to the ground by the counter, and there were a few white marks on the cement floor!

He squatted down and touched it with his fingers, feeling like it was cut out by a sharp tool! Just as he was about to get up, there seemed to be a few black dots on the cement board under the counter. He took out a flashlight and leaned in to observe, and found that the black dots were extremely like blood drops that had been splashed for a long time. This discovery made him excited. He hurriedly scraped off a black dot with a small knife and carefully wrapped it with a white paper towel.

After getting up, he searched other places in the kitchen, but found no new discoveries. Just as he was about to walk out of the kitchen to Tao Xiaoyong's bedroom, he found that there seemed to be something covered by an old cloth behind the kitchen door. He curiously walked over and lifted the old cloth. Underneath was actually a single-door refrigerator!

You Xinfa was stunned! The Tao family could be said to be destitute. Except for an old-fashioned TV, the only electrical appliance left in the house was the light. There was actually a refrigerator in the kitchen! This was a bit unexpected!

You Xinfa opened the refrigerator door to see what was going on! The next second, he squatted on the ground and retched! ===== CHAPTER 62 =====
