Detective: From the Police Academy

Chapter 108 If I haven’t seen you, please call the police immediately!

The person who called the police was the landlord, and the location was Green Vine Community.

Fifteenth floor, room 1506.

Because it was not a crime scene, no yellow cordon was set up and the police from the local police station were talking to the landlord.

When Luo Rui and Cai Xiaojing took the elevator up, they heard the landlord making a noise in the corridor.

"You said, she didn't even pay the rent and she ran away. Do you think this woman deserves death?"

The landlord was a middle-aged man in his forties, with a bald head, a garlic nose, and black-framed glasses.

When the police saw someone coming up, they rushed forward to stop him, and Cai Xiaojing immediately showed her ID.

When the other party saw this, he quickly stood at attention and looked at the young man on the side.

Cai Xiaojing explained: "This is the team leader for handling criminal cases in our Haijiang District."

"Team leader?"

The police officer opened his eyes wide. The other person looked even younger than his son, but he was actually the team leader?

In the public security system, the word "team leader" cannot be underestimated. It all depends on one's ability. No wonder he was quite surprised.

Luo Rui grinned and actually enjoyed this treatment.

He complained in his heart, has he fallen?

Cai Xiaojing looked at the police officer. This kind of missing case should not be reported to the criminal authorities, but should be handled by the local police station, so she was a little confused.

The police officer saw this and said to her, "Our Gu Division is investigating the room."

"Gu Suo?"

Hearing this, Luo Rui's heart tightened. Could it be?

Cai Xiaojing didn't think too much about it. The two of them walked to the corner of the corridor. Inside the corner was Room 1506, the room rented by the female nurse.

As soon as he entered the door, a familiar face appeared in front of Luo Rui.

If not Gu Dayong, who else could it be?

When he saw Luo Rui, his eyes widened.

"Oh, oh, why is it you, boy?"

"Ah, ah, why is it you, old fellow?"

Luo Rui seemed a little excited. He walked forward, held Lao Gu's hands very skillfully, and shook them vigorously.

"No, why are you here? Even if you were transferred, it wouldn't be across the city, right?"

Gu Dayong didn't take it seriously when he heard him call him that.

"I originally thought I could work at Fengxiang Street Police Station until retirement, but who knew that I would be transferred here with a piece of official letter. The former director here was dismissed last month for work style issues, so I..."

Luo Rui squinted at him and said, "Old Gu, you are not simple. You don't have anyone above you, so why would they transfer you to work in the province or city? Obviously, if you get promoted one more level before retirement, you can get a lot of pension, right?"

Gu Dayong knew that this was not the case, and he was also wondering why he was transferred?

But with his years of experience, he felt that a storm was coming.

He quickly changed the subject: "Don't talk nonsense, this is all trust from the organization! No, why are you here?"

He turned to look at Cai Xiaojing, who was squinting her eyes and smiling at him. That smile looked very genuine.

Cai Xiaojing was very happy to see her old colleagues with whom she had worked before.

"Gu Suo, long time no see."

Gu Dayong sighed: "Captain Cai, hello, the fact that we can work together again reminds me of the time when we cracked down on prostitution on Fengxiang Street..."

This was Luo Rui's dark history, so he quickly stopped the other person from talking any further: "Old Gu, tell me first, what's going on here?"

Gu Dayong was about to speak, then looked at Cai Xiaojing with a frown.

The latter immediately gave an explanation, and after hearing it, Gu Dayong's brain immediately went blank.

"Team...leader?"

Luo Rui: "Stop bragging and talk about business, shall we?"

Gu Dayong didn't let him go at all: "No, I need to take a break. I've been a police officer for so many years, and I've never seen a high school student so awesome! If the old neighbors on Fengxiang Street knew about this, wouldn't they be furious?"

Luo Rui shrugged and walked into the room. The light was dim and there was a musty smell.

This is a one-bedroom apartment. There is a purple umbrella at the entrance. The shoe cabinet is filled with women's shoes, but no men's shoes.

A pair of red high heels is very eye-catching, and it seems that they have not been worn for long.

The living room was very clean, but there was a rotten apple in the fruit bowl on the coffee table.

The kitchen and fridge were empty and the owner of the room seemed to seldom cook.

The bedroom door was closed. When Luo Rui walked in, he found the bedroom very tidy and he could smell a faint fragrance. The hostess liked to use jasmine-scented perfume.

The most eye-catching thing is that there is a female flesh-colored veil placed at the end of the bed.

Luo Rui narrowed his eyes, feeling a little strange.

After observing it, I could only see very partial things. Maybe because it was a rented house, there were very few marks of the owner in the room, not even any photos.

Luo Rui looked at Gu Dayong: "Chief Gu, how could this escalate to a criminal case?"

Cai Xiaojing also looked for a long time but didn't find any clues.

Gu Dayong: "Come with me."

Hearing this, the two followed him.

The three of them came to the bathroom next to the kitchen. The door was very small and it was difficult to notice the place.

Gu Dayong stood at the door and nodded inside.

Luo Rui came to the door and looked inside. He saw a line of big words written in red on the wall of the toilet:
If you don't see me, please call the police immediately!

Cai Xiaojing also saw it and looked at Gu Dayong in surprise.

"This woman seems to have encountered some trouble, so she wrote this line in advance. This was discovered by the police downstairs, otherwise I would not have come to you."

Luo Rui walked into the bathroom and looked at the line of words carefully. Because it was far away from the shower head, it was not washed away by the water.

Because of the mist when taking a shower, the paint on the writing has fallen off a little.

This was not written a few days ago, but a long time ago!

This is not some red paint pen, but blood!!
In whose blood is it written?

Was it the girl's own blood? Or someone else's?

Luo Rui's pupils shrank slightly, and he turned to look at the two people behind him: "Call the landlord and find someone to detectives for traces!" Gu Dayong quickly called the landlord, and Cai Xiaojing immediately called the trace detectives in the bureau.

The landlord tried to get into the house, swearing, with a bunch of keys in his hand.

Of course, slippers are a must, so you won’t feel cold even in late autumn.

Luo Rui stopped him at the door and asked immediately, "What's the name of the female tenant?"

"Xue Qiao."

"how old?"

"I think I'm 25."

"Profession?"

"Nurse, I don't know which hospital it is, but that's what she said when she rented the room."

Luo Rui nodded: "Go get her rental information."

"Officer, where is the information? I just copied my ID card."

"Bring it here, too!"

The landlord looked angrily and took out a crumpled A4 copy paper from his pocket. It seemed that he had prepared it long ago.

Luo Rui took it and looked at it carefully.

The woman was born in 1981 and her family address was Xuejia Village, Wuxing County. Luo Rui knew that this county was under the jurisdiction of Guangxing City.

Because it is a photocopy, the girl's face is not very clear, but you can roughly see that she is very beautiful.

The ID card was valid from 2001, which means she renewed it five years ago.

Luo Rui handed the copy to Cai Xiaojing and said to the landlord: "We'll keep this for now."

The landlord said somewhat dissatisfiedly: "Officer, what should I do with the rent she owes me?"

Luo Rui looked at the key chain in his hand and the BMW car key hanging on his belt.

Rich people are different. They will not let go of even the smallest profit.

“When you rent a house, don’t you have to pay a deposit?”

The landlord said with a bitter face: "She didn't give it to me."

Luo Rui found this a bit strange. Generally, when renting a house, no matter it is in the first few years or in the next few years, a deposit would be required.

"I'm telling you, the girl is missing. This is a criminal case. If you don't tell the truth, you will be responsible if we find out anything wrong!"

Hearing this, the landlord's expression became awkward, as if he was unwilling to speak.

"Speak!" Luo Rui shouted.

"Okay! I said!" The landlord took a deep breath: "She helped me get a job, so I didn't ask for a deposit!"

Luo Rui's face immediately darkened, and even Gu Dayong's eyes widened.

Cai Xiaojing acted as if she didn't hear anything and pretended to search the house for clues.

Luo Rui said in a deep voice: "Haven't you done anything else yet?"

"I swear, it was the time she rented a house, and that was two years ago!"

"She's been renting here for two years?"

"Yes."

"How do you pay the rent?"

“I come to collect it once a month.”

At this time, rent was still a cash transaction, and these landlords did not have to pay taxes, so all the money went into their pockets.

"When was the last time you saw her?"

"This time last month, it should have been a month. I came here to collect rent."

Luo Rui felt something was wrong when he heard this.

"Were you the one who called the police just now?"

"Yes, it's me. She's missing and she hasn't paid the deposit. I'm definitely calling the police!"

Luo Rui stared at him: "How do you know she's missing? She's not at home today only. If she went out for something, that's normal, right?"

The landlord was speechless for a moment, stammering and unable to say anything.

Luo Rui: "Have you been into the house?"

"I……"

"You must have seen the words in the bathroom, right? That's why you called the police!"

The landlord was shocked. How could this young man know everything?

But what's wrong with going into your own house?

He said confidently: "So what if I came in? This is my house!"

Luo Rui glared at him fiercely: "You are invading other people's privacy, do you know that? I suspect that you are behaving improperly towards the tenants!"

Suddenly, the landlord wilted. It is true that power is more powerful than money.

He lowered his head and said, "You guessed right, I did come in here! I saw that line of words."

Luo Rui: "Is this your first time entering the house, or multiple times? When did you write that line?"

"Many times... But officer, I didn't notice that line of words before. I only saw it today. I don't know when that woman wrote it."

Luo Rui looked at his expression and didn't think he was lying, so he didn't pursue the matter any further.

But Gu Dayong refused to do it. He had just taken office and an LSP appeared in his jurisdiction, and he could not just ignore the matter.

"What were you doing in a girl's room? Have you ever violated anyone?"

The landlord lowered his head and touched the remaining hair: "I just came in to take a quickie, I didn't do anything else!"

After saying that, he glanced towards the bedroom from the corner of his eye, and saw the female murder mask placed at the end of the bed.

Gu Dayong was speechless and wanted to slap him. What kind of person is this?

Cai Xiaojing walked into the bedroom, found a clean plastic bag, carefully put the mask in it, and then sealed it.

When she came back, she sternly told the landlord: "It's a crime of indecency. Wait for the public security punishment!"
