Chapter 14 Water Tower Female Corpse 14

　　It's so cold in the morning on an October day!

　　Qin Ke crouched in the corner and observed the ants moving, but his mind turned nowhere.

　　She had found five hundred and sixty dollars inside her room, but she had bought some seven or eight things in the past two days, and now she only had three hundred dollars left.

　　Undeterred by a thorough rummage through, did not find any valuable things, but instead to confirm that the computer placed in the room is purely ornamental, even the boot can not be turned on, I do not know to take out to sell to the scrap collector can be replaced by a twenty dollars?

　　It's now October 28th, and the landlord comes to collect the rent around the 5th of the month at the beginning of every month. Can you imagine, it's such a shitty place with nothing inside the room, and its rent is a thousand dollars a month, which is too shady!

　　Just one thousand dollars is still the cheapest rent in this neighborhood, not to mention the far away from the renovated new building in the Linjiang District, where the cheapest is also one thousand five.

　　It's just a neighborhood that doesn't even have a property, so how come the rent is so expensive?

　　Now Qin Ke did not know that this part of the Royal Water Bay is considered the city center area, so the rent will be more expensive than other places on the 30% or 40%, she sincerely for the rent and hurt her head.

　　And she really didn't want to keep living here if she could help it, with a dead man next door, water that she couldn't drink, such poor conditions, and every now and then she had to worry about whether or not someone was going to crawl out from under her bed.

　　I feel exhausted with every sleep.

　　She had to find a way to make a fortune in a few days, at least two thousand dollars, and besides moving she needed to buy some daily necessities, such as a down jacket with thicker pants, a fall coat and pants, or something like that.

　　As a mature adult, she learned a long time ago to put her fall coat and pants on when it was cold, and the winter in this world was colder than she thought it would be, and when she left the house this morning she heard the weather forecast next door that there would be another strong drop in temperature next week, and the temperature might drop to minus five degrees.

　　Qin Ke has been until his death, is a native southerner, the south of the winter are above zero, more often than not are more than ten degrees, and even some times just a little colder in the morning and evening, the temperature at noon are similar to the summer, more than twenty degrees.

　　Only the coldest, coldest times get to zero, and sub-zero weather is really, really rare.

　　According to usual experience, to zero degrees when Qin Ke body to wear at least four pieces of clothing, a warm coat a thin sweater a knitted sweater plus a jacket, pants should also wear two layers, autumn pants outside set of pants, if wearing a skirt, then the leggings must be padded and thickened, hats scarves and gloves are also to be worn.

　　She's actually a little afraid of the cold.

　　And right now there were only two sets of clothes in her closet, both thin, how thin? The thickness of a junior high school uniform.

　　Qin Ke moved inside a little bit more, the wind outside was blowing on her.

　　There was a long line of ants on the floor, crawling in one direction, and a few dragonflies flew low past her.

　　Is it going to rain?

　　Qin Ke had considered whether to look for a job now, but for one thing, she didn't seem to be able to do much in the way of quick money, and for another, her current image wasn't quite suitable for going out to work, and there was no place that would take her.

　　Although she had used the system's life potion, her injuries were now healed, but but at a normal rate, her injuries couldn't heal this fast, so she still had quite a few bandages wrapped around her body.

　　Of course none of that was the point, the most important point was that she didn't think she could be left alone now.

　　In the past two days, Qin Ke had always felt that someone was watching her, but when she turned around she couldn't find anyone, but she knew that it was definitely not an illusion.

　　Was it the man with the knife in the sewer? Or was it the kidnapper whose face the police said she saw?

　　Whichever one it was, it certainly didn't end well when you got caught.

　　Sins. There are always idiots trying to murder her.

　　She needed to beef up her security, then the question circled back around, she needed money and also gold.

　　Finding Zhao Xiaolan's murderer will get you 500 gold coins.

　　Five hundred gold coins would allow her to protect herself, and if she used it well she might even be able to catch the kidnapper who wanted to kill her, so she had to find Zhao Xiaolan's murderer as fast as she could.

　　Qin Ke glanced in the direction of the corner, and that feeling of being spied on came back.

　　But this is the CID, he shouldn't be so bold.

　　"Why are you here?"

　　A warm voice came from above Qin Ke's head.

　　She looked up in surprise and said, "I'm here for you."

　　Zhao Lin Yuan: "Looking for me?"

　　Chink nodded, "Yeah, yeah."

　　Zhao Lin Yuan: "Did you find me for something? A new clue? Or did you remember something?"

　　Qin Ke shook his head gently, "No oh."

　　Zhao Lin Yuan: "And you?"

　　Qin Ke: "I'm here to borrow money from you!"

　　Zhao Lin Yuan was strangely silent for a second, but he had never seen someone who was so happy to borrow money.

　　Zhao Lin Yuan thought for a moment and took out a card from inside his wallet, "This is the card that I ran before, there's only 100,000 dollars in it, so you can take it and use it first."

　　This time the silence became Qin Ke.

　　Wait a minute. A hundred thousand dollars just like that? Why don't you ask me what I'm doing with the money and when I can pay it back? Is it a hundred thousand dollars? Or did he say ten dollars and she misheard him?

　　Are police officers paid that much in this world? You don't even have to think about paying a hundred thousand dollars?

　　Uncle Policeman otherwise you'd better think about it?

　　Seeing that Qin Ke didn't say anything, Zhao Lin Yuan thought that these weren't enough, he took out another card, "This is what I usually use, if it's not enough ..."

　　"Wait a minute." Qin Ke interrupted Zhao Lin Yuan without waiting for him to finish, "Put down the card in your hand and don't take it out."

　　Zhao Lin Yuan: "?"

　　Qin Ke: "Officer Zhao, don't you even ask what I'm borrowing money from you for?"

　　Zhao Lin Yuan smiled gently, "Since you're looking for me to borrow money, then there must be a reason for you, since you didn't say anything I won't ask."

　　At this moment, even though the weather was overcast today, Qin Ke felt a golden light rise from behind Zhao Lin Yuan.

　　Is this the perfect candidate for a husband who is stupid, rich and handsome?

　　Qin Ke: "Officer Zhao, please marry!"

　　Zhao Lin Yuan: "Huh?"

　　Qin Ke: "No, I said it wrong, I meant to ask if you downloaded the anti-fraud app yet?"

　　Zhao Lin Yuan began to reflect on whether he was too old to keep up with young people's topics, "What anti-fraud app"

　　Chinke: "It's a software that publicizes scams to prevent people from being scammed."

　　Zhao Lin Yuan: "At present, the police department does not have such software, your suggestion is very good, such software can really improve the people's anti-fraud ability."

　　Although the person is no longer in the motherland, but Qin Ke's soul is still the great socialist successor, so she actively publicized the anti-fraud app: "Yes, it is really very good to use, I have seen people use this app, it can be for the user's cell phone to detect the suspicious content, if the recognition of suspicious, it will be active in the user's warning. "

　　Zhao Lin Yuan: "Very good."

　　Qin Ke: "Officer Zhao, I think you as a police officer should also have this anti-fraud awareness, don't think that just because you are a police officer no one dares to cheat you, before you want to lend money to someone you should remember to ask them what they are going to use it for, and when you can pay it back."

　　Zhao Lin Yuan cried and laughed a little, they were never the ones to give the public a generalization of the law, but I didn't expect to be lectured by a girl in her early twenties about the need for precautionary awareness today.

　　Qin Ke returned the card that Zhao Lin Yuan had just handed to her back to him, and took the initiative to explain the reason why she borrowed the money, "I just need to borrow two thousand dollars, because I want to buy a cell phone, I don't know where my previous cell phone has gone, it might have been lost when I was kidnapped, in the future, if I catch the kidnapper can I ask him to compensate me for my cell phone?"

　　"And then I want to buy some daily necessities and clothes, it's winter it's so cold, I'm going to freeze to death in these October days."

　　Qin Ke: "I'll go to work when my injury heals and I'll pay you back within a month."

　　Qin Ke looked at Zhao Lin Yuan seriously, "So Officer Zhao can you lend me two thousand dollars?"

　　Zhao Lin Yuan: "Yes."

　　Qin Ke excitedly held Zhao Lin Yuan's hand, "Thank you, Officer Zhao you're such a good person!"

　　Zhao Lin Yuan couldn't help himself, "You're welcome, serve the people."

　　Zhao Lin Yuan: "Then wait a bit, I don't have so much cash on me, is it okay if I go get it for you later?"

　　Qin Ke: "I'm not in a hurry, Officer Zhao where are you going?"

　　Speaking of this, Zhao Lin Yuan's expression became a bit more serious: "We went through the information on the clues you provided yesterday and found that there is indeed a possibility of the kind of thing you said, so I'm going to make a trip to Dexiang First Middle School right now to find out more about the situation."

　　Dexiang First Middle School? Hearing this Qin Ke's eyes instantly lit up.

　　It's good to know the situation, if the situation is clear, the murderer can be caught quickly, and when the case is solved she will have 500 gold coins and not be a poorer person.

　　Chink: "Can I come with you?"

　　Zhao Lin Yuan was helpless, "No, this isn't a joke, I'm going to investigate the case."

　　Qin Ke: "Yes, Officer Zhao, I understand the importance of this matter, so can you bring me along? I might be able to help you out."

　　Zhao Lin Yuan: "Qin Ke, leave investigating these things to the police, we'll protect the people's safety, you don't have to feel worried, we'll catch the murderer as fast as we can."

　　Zink: "I understand, and I trust the police very much, so can I come with you?"

　　Zhao Lin Yuan pinched between his eyebrows, he felt that she didn't understand at all, the

　　Qin Ke frowned and said seriously, "I'm not being unreasonable, Officer Zhao, as a survivor of a kidnapping case the police will protect my safety right?"

　　Zhao Lin Yuan: "That's for sure, but you can't follow me."

　　Qin Ke: "But I only trust you!"

　　Qin Ke's blunt words caused Zhao Lin Yuan to flinch.

　　Zink: "I lost my memory, at one point in the sewers I thought I was going to die in there, I woke up some time before the police arrived, I woke up from under their bodies."

　　"That's right, I woke up pinned under those two bodies, that's supposed to be why I survived, the kidnappers thought I was dead as well, I struggled forward and ran into a dog that had gone crazy, I killed it ..."

　　Qin Ke was silent for a split second: "There was blood all over my body and hands, sticky and dirty, my blood and that dog's blood, at first it was hot, then it turned cold, then I continued on my way, and I saw a man with a knife, and he saw me too."

　　Even though Qin Ke's description was very plain, Zhao Lin Yuan knew what a thrilling scene it was.

　　The only people who would be in that place at that time with a knife in their hand would be kidnappers.

　　He'll kill her.

　　Qin Ke smiled, "But he didn't make it, you guys showed up and I survived."

　　"So, I cherish my life now, I don't want to die." Qin Ke said seriously.

　　She didn't want to die, much less be abused by some kidnapper-murderer for some inexplicable reason, she wanted to live, and she wanted to live no matter how rough the opening was.

　　Zhao Lin Yuan wanted to say something, but Qin Ke stopped him, "Officer Zhao, listen to me first. I want to go with you, partly because the deceased Zhao Xiaolan was my neighbor, and even though I've lost my memory now, some bits and pieces of it still exist, so maybe I can help you with something."

　　"There is another aspect that ..." Qin Ke brewed for a moment and said, "I don't want to continue to stay there, not because it's next to the crime scene, but someone is following me spying on me, even if I'm sleeping, that kind of gaze follows me like a shadow, this morning when I went from the Linjiang neighborhood all the way to the Criminal Investigation Bureau, he's following me as well, I can't find the person, but I know that he's there."

　　Chinke: "So I can follow you?"

　　Zhao Lin Yuan finally compromised, but he still spoke to Qin Ke about a number of precautions according to the rules, and just like that, the two of them embarked on the journey to Dexiang First Middle School.

　　Dexiang No. 1 Middle School was within Shuang Yun Town, which was located in the southernmost part of Guiyuan City, and was also one of the six famous hills in Guiyuan City.

　　As a mountain, then the journey must not be short, from the CID, the way kept crossing the winding highway, experiencing the real mountain road 180,000, after two hours, they finally arrived at Dexiang First High School.

　　Although it is a school located on a hill, from the entrance it looks no different in appearance from a normal school, the gate is new and the concrete road looks like it was built in recent years.

　　Zhao Lin Yuan: "It's here."

　　The two of them got out of the car and Zhao Lin Yuan showed his police officer's license to the school's security guard before the two of them entered the campus.

　　The school covered a large area, and the two of them came in just as the students were finishing their second period classes, with a few of them staring at them curiously from time to time.

　　Zhao Lin Yuan didn't pay the slightest attention to the whispers of the surrounding students and walked forward with a clear purpose.

　　Qin Ke, however, felt something strange, "Officer Zhao, you've been here before?"

　　Zhao Lin Yuan: "No."

　　Chink: "Then how did you know to go this way?"

　　Zhao Lin Yuan: "There was a map at the door just now."

　　There's a map at the door?

　　They had just passed through there without the slightest pause, and had been able to look at the map for less than three seconds.

　　Is that how it's written down?

　　Zhao Lin Yuan's footsteps stopped in front of a five-story science building, and the two of them walked up the stairs to the principal's office on the third floor.

　　The principal's office was half-closed, and Zhao Lin Yuan knocked on the door.

　　A strong male voice came from inside, "Come in."

　　A middle-aged man wearing a suit with a yellow tie and gold-rimmed glasses was drinking tea on the sofa in the principal's office, and froze for a moment when he saw the two men who came in.

　　Middle-aged man: "And you are?"

　　Zhao Lin Yuan took out his credentials and said, "Zhao Lin Yuan of the Major Crimes Unit of the Criminal Investigation Bureau of Guiyuan City, we have a case that requires your cooperation in the investigation."

　　Hearing what Zhao Lin Yuan said, the man was so surprised that the movements of his hands were a little unsteady, and a lot of tea spilled out of his teacup.

　　Middle-aged man: "Serious, Serious Crimes Unit? Why are the police at our school?"

　　Zhao Lin Yuan: "Are you the principal of this school?"

　　Middle-aged man: "Yes."

　　Zhao Lin Yuan: "What's your name?"

　　The middle-aged man was a bit uneasy: "My name is Li, officer, our school has always been in good order, year after year it is a civilized school, there has never been anything wrong, is there something wrong with our students? Or the teacher?"

　　Zhao Lin Yuan: "Principal Li don't be nervous, it's not that there's a problem with your school, we're here mainly to find out about a student who graduated from your school, this is something that I've already had contact with your school's teachers before I came."

　　Principal Li's expression was a bit complicated, "Contacted? How come no one notified me?"

　　With that he made a call, not in a very nice tone, and sternly told the person on the other end of the line to come over.

　　Zhao Lin Yuan pulled out Zhao Xiaolan's photo and went straight to the point: "Principal Li, do you recognize this person?"

　　Principal Lee: "Don't know."

　　Zhao Lin Yuan: "Her name is Zhao Xiaolan, and she attended Dexiang First High School fifteen years ago."

　　Principal Li was speechless, "No, students from fifteen years ago, who can recognize this, there are so many students, and I was only transferred here as principal two years ago, I don't know much about the past."

　　Li De is an ambitious person, from graduation into the public school as a teacher, and the ordinary teacher is bent on teaching different aspirations, he does not want to work so hard to do a front-line teachers, he wants to be a leader, when the leadership is more cool ah, every day good food and drink, female teachers have to say good words to please, but also do not have to do anything, things to let the teacher to do, the credit can be claimed by themselves.

　　It was just too comfortable! For the sake of this goal, Reid drilled hard, finally allowing him to become the principal. But after sitting in the position of principal, his greed expanded day by day, those things before were far from satisfying him, he wanted more.

　　As a result of a screw-up, was transferred to the mountainous area as a principal. After transferring over, Li De was very dissatisfied, this town has little oil and water, some of the old teachers in it are still against him all day long, and do not put him in the eyes at all.

　　It's like having the CID come in today and no one came to notify him, it's really against them.

　　A hint of viciousness flashed in Reid's eyes, and after a while he'd look for a chance to fire all of those.

　　Zhao Lin Yuan: "It doesn't matter if you don't recognize it, just cooperate with us to retrieve Zhao Xiaolan's school registration information."

　　Reid: "I'm the principal, I'm not in charge of the school registry, I'll have another teacher take you to the transfer later."

　　As soon as the words fell, there was a middle-aged female teacher in a gray skirt walking in from outside.

　　Reid: "Oh, people come, this is the director of instruction at our school, just tell her what you want to check."

　　With that, Principal Li said to the middle-aged female teacher, "These two are police officers from the city, saying that they want to investigate a student who studied here fifteen years ago, you take them there."

　　Fifteen years ago?

　　Wouldn't that be year zero six?

　　The middle-aged female teacher seemed to have thought of something, and her already bad face became even paler.
