400. The cook?

After leaving the workshop, Xiao Ran went to another guest bedroom on the second floor and took a look.

Perhaps because it was not used for a long time, a thick layer of dust fell on the floor of the guest bedroom on the second floor. As long as someone entered this room, he would inevitably leave footprints on the ground.

However, the dust on the ground was intact, which also means that the murderer had never come to this room.

He reached out to close the door of the guest bedroom. Xiao Ran turned around and was about to go downstairs, but suddenly he was caught by the sofa placed in the corner of the living room.

The sofa is earthy yellow. Although it is very dirt-resistant, it is ugly and very old. It is next to one end of the sofa and there are some debris piled up. If you don’t pay special attention, few people will pay attention to it.

Xiao Ran put on gloves, walked to the sofa, and touched the sofa everywhere.

Looking at the clean fingertips and looking at the dust on the living room floor, Xiao Ran frowned slightly.

He is becoming more and more sure that this murderer or accomplice has lived in Dong Haonan's house, and he has lived there for quite a while!

The reason why the sofa is not covered with dust like the floor is very likely because this person’s bed is this sofa. Because of the cover of sheets and other things, the sofa has always been kept clean.

But since this person has lived in Dong Haonan's house, why don't people around you know? Even Dong Haonan's cousin knows it?

Is this person flawed? He has been staying on this second floor on weekdays and has never been out?

Xiao Ran's eyes were burning and he kept thinking about the person's motive for the crime: Did Dong Haonan's child annoyed him? Or did he have a conflict with Dong Haonan and his wife? Or did he make money and sex? Or did he have all three?

Even as Shao Yong said, this person was a murderer hired. After sneaking into Dong Haonan's house, he was looking for opportunities. Everything on the scene was an illusion he set up to confuse and induce the attention of the case handlers?

Xiao Ran shook his head, took off his gloves and turned downstairs, trying to figure out what it was, and he also had to judge based on subsequent investigation clues. He only stood here and thought about it, and was destined to be unable to think of the result.

The technicians downstairs were still searching for clues nervously and carefully. The bodies of Dong Haonan and his family of three had been put into the body bag by the forensic doctor and were about to take them back for dissection.

The bureau leader also arrived at the scene at this time and repeatedly emphasized that the case should be solved as soon as possible, the murderer should be brought to justice, and an explanation for the deceased and the society.

After walking out of Dong Haonan's courtyard, most of the people who were watching were nearby office workers, most of them had dispersed at this time, and only some leisurely people around were still looking at them.

Dong Haonan's mother was sitting on the curb with empty eyes at this time, while Dong Haonan's cousin Dong Haobei was standing next to her, smoking a cigarette with a confused expression.

Xiao Ran called Jiang Feng over and waved to Dong Haobei again. The three of them walked aside. Xiao Ran said to Dong Haobei: "I'll ask you something, has anyone lived in your cousin Dong Haonan's house before?"

"ah?"

Dong Haobei was stunned when he heard this, pinched the cigarette he was holding, his face still confused, "Yes, there is one, the chef in my factory has lived here for a while before..."

"cook?"

Xiao Ran's eyes lit up and he immediately asked, "What's his name? Where is the person now? When did he live with Dong Haonan until he left?"

Listening to the concern in Xiao Ran's words, Dong Haobei was dumbfounded: "What do you mean is that Guan Wu's dog thing?"

"I don't mean this, I just want to understand the situation." Xiao Ran denied.

Dong Haobei was still surprised and said, "His name is Guan Wu. He came to work from another province. He used to be a chef in my factory. Because there was no place for him to live there at that time, he let him live with my brother for more than three months. More than a month ago, a house was vacated in the factory and he let him move in."

"Does he come back often after he moves there?" Xiao Ran asked.

Dong Haobei nodded repeatedly, "He often comes to deliver food. My brother's family is very lazy and stingy. He used to buy food. How could they not take advantage of this with ready-made chefs?"

"Send meals? Moved away more than a month ago?" Xiao Ran narrowed his eyes and kept comparing the information that Dong Haobei said with the discoveries on the scene.

If the person living in Dong Haonan's house was the chef Guan Wu, he had been sleeping on the sofa on the second floor when he lived in Dong Haonan's house, but he had been moving to the factory for more than a month. No one had slept on the sofa for so long, so why should he fall into dust?

"Is he in your factory now? Take me to find him!"

Xiao Ran didn't think too much. After all, if the murderer was really Guan Wu, you will know it when you find him and ask.

And even if the murderer is not Guan Wu, he goes to Dong Haonan's house to deliver food every day, then he must be the most familiar with the situation of Dong Haonan's family!

Hearing this, Dong Haobei looked embarrassed and said in a turmoil: "He, he is no longer in my factory, I will fire him!"

"Exited? Why? When was it fired?"

"Yes, it's been half a month, and his hands and feet are not clean."

Dong Haobei said: "I lost several thousand dollars in the financial room of my factory before, but as soon as I searched, I was in his bag. And there were also my brother and sister's gold and silver jewelry that he took away when he came here to deliver the meal. My brother and sister almost rummaged through the house for those jewelry, but I didn't expect it was him who stole it!"

"I lived in three months and stole jewelry..."

Xiao Ran took a deep breath and turned to Jiang Feng and said, "You ask the surveyors to pay attention to whether the cash, jewelry, and valuables in Dong Haonan's home are still there."

"Okay." Jiang Feng hurriedly ran in.

"Continue, how is this relationship between Guan Wu and your brother and sister-in-law?"

"It was okay at the beginning, but since I found out that he had stole the jewelry from home, my brother and sister went to the factory to scold him fiercely, which was so ugly.

Dong Haobei said, "I didn't pay attention to what he was like at that time. Maybe his face didn't look very good. Then when he went to work the next day, he found out that he had left. No one knew when he left."

Xiao Ran nodded, and Dong Haonan's wife's swearing was probably planting the seeds of hatred in the heart of the chef Guan Wu. "Do you know where he went after he was fired?"

"I don't even know when he left. How could I know where he went?" Dong Haobei said: "And he did such disgusting things at that time. No one was willing to pay attention to him, and no one knew where he was going in the future."

Xiao Ran thought for a while and said, "Tell me about this person's age, height, fatness, and other physical characteristics."

"Guan Wu is in his early thirties and is not fat. He is a little shorter than me, and he looks like 175..." Dong Haobei paused for a moment and suddenly said, "Oh, by the way, his left foot is a little limp, and it is not normal to walk."

"Because of this flaw, he usually likes to stay in the house and doesn't want to see people?" Xiao Ran thought of the footprints at the scene. The murderer's height was indeed about 1.75 meters.

"Yes, apart from buying vegetables and cooking, he just likes to be stuck in the house." Dong Haobei nodded constantly.

Xiao Ran finally asked, "Do you have his contact information?"

"No...but he had a few of them in the factory before, so I can ask them if they know." Dong Haobei said.

Xiao Ran raised his hand, "Then you ask."

"Okay." Dong Haobei took out his cell phone and then dialed the factory staff.

While Dong Haobei was talking, Hu Han suddenly ran over and said hurriedly: "Xiao Ran, receive reports from the public that the two people on Wan'an Road who had a criminal record had seen large blood on their clothes, which was very suspicious. The Lei Bureau asked us to find them as soon as possible!"
