Criminal Investigation Files

Chapter 88

Song Wen and Lu Siyu got the materials that Captain Wang copied for them from the traffic side, and took them back to the city bureau. It was past six o'clock on the way back.

While Lu Siyu was cooking dinner, Song Wen received a call from Fu Linjiang.

"Team Song, according to the previous investigation, we found the small hotel where Chen Yanqiu stayed last. I just went over to confirm it. The hotel owner saw Chen Yanqiu's photo and confirmed that he had seen him."

On this day, other colleagues in the city bureau were not idle. They were looking for traces of Chen Yanqiu before his death. Fu Linjiang's discovery is undoubtedly a great progress for the investigation of the case. After finding this hotel, it is possible to know what happened to Chen Yanqiu after that, and he can also infer the specific time of his death and narrow the scope of investigation.

Lu Siyu just came out with the food and put a plate of eggplant on the table. Hearing Song Wen's words, he turned his head and asked in a low voice, "Is there any progress?"

Song Wenchong made a silent gesture to him, indicating that Fu Linjiang should not hear his voice, and then turned on the speakerphone: "Where is the specific location of the hotel?"

"On Maochang Street, there is a small hotel called Ruyi Hotel. Since the check-in information here is not connected to the Internet, and the handwritten registration is still maintained, it took us some time to find it." Fu Linjiang paused and said, "Chen Yanqiu To register here, Zhang Rui's identity information is used, and the ID card photos of the two people are a bit similar, so the boss has no doubts."

After listening to this sentence, Song Wencai really felt that the last period of Chen Yanqiu's life was real. He was not a ghost, but a living person. He knew Maochang Street, which was a shanty town in the west of the city. The demolition work was only halfway through, and some self-built houses had many empty rooms. The homeowners remodeled the house and opened it into a small hotel, which is somewhat similar to a family hotel. The hotel has only a few rooms, and the price is very low. Sometimes it can cost a few hundred to stay for a month. The rich despise this place, but this is another home for migrant workers or the poor.

"Did the owner of the hotel provide any clues?"

"The location of this small hotel is a bit out of the way, the business is average, and there are not many regular guests like him, so the boss still has an impression. The boss said that Chen Yanqiu stayed at the hotel in January this year, paid cash, and stayed there for a total of For more than a month, he also said that he often went out. By the way, he found that Chen Yanqiu was ill. When cleaning the room, there were many medicine bottles written in foreign languages. In the middle, Chen Yanqiu had a fever and couldn't get up, so he even cooked porridge for Chen Yanqiu. , asked him if he needed to contact relatives and friends, but Chen Yanqiu refused. On the morning of February 3, before the Chinese New Year, Chen Yanqiu suddenly said that he was going to go out, and said that he would come back after the festival and left a box of things with the boss. Deposit and never come back."

"The boss said he goes out a lot, do you know where he goes?"

"That's not clear."

"Have you checked your luggage?"

"I did a rough inspection with gloves on. There are no contraband or dangerous goods. They are all daily necessities. I will stay at the city bureau and let the physical evidence check again."

Song Wen continued to ask, "Did Chen Yanqiu say what he was going to do in the end?"

"I just told the boss that he was going to do something, but the boss thought he was going to visit relatives." Fu Linjiang thought of something and added, "By the way, the boss said that Chen Yanqiu seemed to be in a good mood that day, and he gave it to him. His son has a packet of peanuts. Chen Yanqiu also said, 'When things are done, I will relax.'"
