Chapter 995: Visits

~8 min read 1,575 words

At night.

Xu Juan also couldn't sleep. She turned on all the lights in the house, lay on the ground, and kept scrubbing the bedroom floor, trying to wash the bloodstains out of the floor tile gaps.

*Swish*...

The water bucket used for washing was full of vermilion water with white foam.

Xu Juan didn't care at all, threw the rag in to rinse it, squeezed it dry, rinsed it in a peach-red bucket next to it, squeezed it dry, took it out, poured on detergent, and started scrubbing on the ground.

She kept doing it and doing it, not knowing how late it was. She was exhausted, so she naturally fell asleep.

She didn't go to sleep on the bed. The mattress on the bed was also soaked in blood. She didn't know how to deal with it yet.

*Buzz*...

*Buzz-buzz*...

The phone rang twice, immediately startling Xu Juan awake.

Xu Juan broke into a lot of sweat in an instant, curled up in the corner for a long time, then calmed down, picked up the phone, looked at the phone number, hesitated for a few seconds, and called back: "Hello..."

"Xu Juan, you are still not coming to work today, the boss is going to be angry." The person who called was a fake best friend in the company. The relationship was not particularly good, but because they needed someone to eat lunch together and pass messages, they contacted tacitly.

Xu Juan looked at the date on the phone in a trance, and then said: "I'm not feeling well, I don't want to go yet."

"Do you want to see a doctor? Otherwise, should I come over to see you at noon?" The fake best friend cared immediately.

"No need." Xu Juan said lazily: "My own problem, nothing, just rest for two days."

"Okay, you recover well, remember to call the boss to ask for leave. That person, talking about respect all day long, as if respecting him, everything can be done well..."

Xu Juan said "um-um" twice, put down the phone, curled up in the corner again, smelling the thick smell of blood in her nose, looking at the bedroom that was redder than when she got married, feeling scared and annoyed in her heart.

She was afraid of being caught and shot, but she was also annoyed by doing housework. She didn't expect that killing someone would leave so much blood, and didn't expect that chopping someone up would make the room so dirty, so that she had been scrubbing for two or three days and still couldn't clean the room.

Xu Juan missed her cowardly husband a little bit at this time. If this room was left to him to clean, it would probably be clean and tidy in a weekend.

"Fortunately, I killed him first." Xu Juan shuddered all over, thinking to herself, if he knew this, he might have chopped her to death first.

It's still comfortable to be alive.

Thinking of this, Xu Juan surged with strength and cleaned up hard again.

*Knock-knock-knock*.

When the knocking sounded, Xu Juan only thought it was takeout. She only looked at the cat's eye before opening the door, and just one look made her sweat all over.

"Police!" The police at the door were not vegetarians either. Just seeing the light from the cat's eye darken and then brighten, they knew someone was in the room, and immediately took out their police officer card: "Trouble opening the door, we have a few questions to ask."

Xu Juan's legs were shaking with fear. She didn't know what it would be like for a female prisoner to enter prison, and didn't know whether she would be sentenced to death. She was worried that there would be a smell of blood when she opened the door, and worried that even if she didn't open the door, there would be a smell of blood for the police at the door to smell.

Most importantly, why did the police come to the door? Did they know something?

Xu Juan had moved into this house for three or four years and had never seen the police come to the door. It just happened that her husband died, and the police came to the door. What else could it be?

Xu Juan stuck to the other side of the door and shook her head vigorously, not opening the door.

"Hello. We are the police. I know someone is inside, I saw you just look at the cat's eye, trouble opening the door, ask a few questions, and we will leave." The police outside said loudly again.

Xu Juan shook her head again, her intelligence gradually recovered, and then said: "You can ask whatever questions you have directly. I won't open the door."

"We are the police!"

"Can the police force me to open the door?"

The police outside were stuck. To say whether they have the power to force the other party to open the door, if it is determined that the other party is a criminal and a serious criminal, then they must have the power. But in daily police activities, if it is not a suspect in a criminal case, and they insist on not opening the door, the police are also unwilling to pry the door or open the lock.

So you can see that many police officers from the police station come to the door, and there are often cases where they knock on the door but don't open it. The enforcement judge of the court brings the judicial police to the door, and there are cases where they knock on the door for several hours.

Xu Juan was unwilling to open the door no matter what. The smell in the house was already very large. She turned on the ventilation fresh air and air conditioning, and could still smell the smell. This anti-theft door was her last hope.

Xu Juan felt the police's attitude and said: "You can ask whatever questions you have directly. I won't open the door, I'm scared."

"We are the police, what are you afraid of."

"What if you are fake police."

"This is our police officer card."

"I don't understand the police officer card, how can I distinguish if you are fake." Xu Juan said and became smooth, and her tone became hard instead.

The police outside had encountered this situation more than once, so they said: "Then you call 110, and the other party will verify our identity."

"I won't call, there is telecommunication hijacking now, and that kind of artificial AI."

"Where is there something as mysterious as you said."

"Do you ask or not? If you don't ask, I'll go back to sleep." Xu Juan took the initiative.

The police outside hesitated and said: "Who else is in your house?"

Xu Juan hesitated and said: "There is only me in the house now."

"What is your name?"

"I won't tell you." Xu Juan had already let go.

The police outside frowned and made records in the notebook while thinking.

Xu Juan couldn't care so much either, she just wanted to get through the present.

The two sides asked and answered, lasting about five or six minutes. The police took out a sketch and asked: "This person, do you recognize him."

Xu Juan recognized at a glance that this was her husband.

Her heart felt like it was grabbed, she gasped twice, and then said fiercely: "Don't recognize."

"Have you seen him?"

"Never seen!"

Xu Juan didn't want to fight anymore if the police said anything else.

The police outside shouted a few more words and stopped. The strange things encountered in visits and investigations are various. Xu Juan's kind is not an individual case, and it is not strange enough to break the door.

The reason why they visited this residential quarter was because the Qingbai Bureau had determined that the corpse's drowning location was on the riverside more than 200 meters away, and the scope of the visit was all residents of the residential quarter within 1000 meters of the drowning point.

This number is very large, and the requirements for visiting police officers are also very high. Compared to the unrealistic requirement of finding the killer, the main purpose of the visit is to determine the identity of the deceased.

Therefore, this degree of visit and investigation can neither be too relaxed nor too detailed, which belongs to the category of experience of iron feet.

Considering that there may be mental patients in every residential quarter—medical, nervous—life, elderly people who are paranoid, young people who are socially phobic, couples in menopause, real criminals, traditional anti-social elements, long-term serious people and sudden serious people, long-term cynical people and adults' breakdown is only in an instant, it is not easy for iron feet to distinguish a special element.

Xu Juan, with great psychological pressure, watched the police leave her door and started to ask the neighbor who opened the door to watch the excitement.

Xu Juan was quite nervous watching the police take out the sketch. What made her happy was that the neighbor opposite was also shaking his head after being at a loss.

At that moment, Xu Juan breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, her husband went to work early and returned late, and had no time to rest on Saturday and Sunday, otherwise it would be dangerous. ===== CHAPTER 996 =====
