Chapter 684: Misperception
Because there are no cameras operating in Xinhuifang, all corners from the gate to the inside of the community are not monitored.
As for the surveillance of the road section on one side of the road, Jiang Yang looked at it at 16x speed and didn't feel that there was any suspicious person anywhere.
In this way, it can be preliminarily concluded that the murderer did not go through the main entrance, but entered the community through the side entrance of the two lanes where road surveillance has not been installed to commit the crime.
Confirming this, Jiang Yang took over the task of writing records for the residents.
He has the skill of Affinity Substitute, which can greatly improve everyone's trust level, so as to achieve the effect of answering whatever you ask without hiding anything.
If you ask others to ask, there will likely be subconscious mistakes and omissions that the speaker himself may not be aware of.
For example, in the gossip Jiang Yang heard at the breakfast shop, the descriptions of the two deceased people had the wrong surnames.
Obviously the male's surname is Zhang and the female's surname is Wang.
I don't know how it was passed down, but the male's surname was Liu and the female's surname was Zhou.
People's words are scary.
When one thing is passed around, it can easily go awry.
When something wrong is publicized enough, people will subconsciously think it is right.
Jiang Yang knocked on the door of Room 203 next door. When the other person saw it was him, his face suddenly lit up.
"Ah, it's Officer Jiang! If you need anything, just ask! Our couple were the first group of people to live in Xinhuifang! At that time, the work unit allocated houses, and this is the place we were allocated."
The old man was very proud.
In those days, the units that could be allocated housing were all very good.
The pay is also very high.
"Okay, thank you for your recognition and cooperation with the police work. I just want to briefly understand the situation. Some of the details I just asked were not clear enough."
"Excuse me, did you notice any quarrels or sounds of scolding in Room 202 last night?"
Jiang Yang explained politely, leaving Gao Jinyang and Ji Dayu who were following him dumbfounded.
"Oh my god, when I was writing notes for this uncle just now, his attitude was not like this! He even grabbed my ears and criticized me for talking too much. I didn't even dare to say too much!"
"Hey, Brother Yang has a way of asking questions," Gao Jinyang said softly as he turned on the recorder to record: "No matter how difficult a person is to get along with, when in front of Brother Yang, he will be as well-behaved as a little sheep, answering whatever he asks."
"I feel like some people are born to eat this kind of food."
The two of them didn't murmur much. The old man thought about it and said hesitantly: "Well, it's just like usual."
It’s no different from Ji Dayu’s answer just now.
However, the next second, the uncle said: "The couple usually quarrels every week, and they often get into fights. The landlord of this family is an old colleague of mine, but after the house was divided, he followed his daughter and son-in-law to settle abroad. "
"Basically, I came to Xinhuifang on the day I received my real estate certificate. Afterwards, I entrusted domestic real estate agencies to rent out the houses."
"They have been renting it for many years, probably closer to ten years. My old colleague is lazy and doesn't want to sell the house. He keeps it in case he wants to return to China for retirement one day so that he won't have no place to live."
"So my old colleague is very happy to have stable tenants. But for this couple, except for the first two or three years after moving here, they never stopped."
The old man had a headache when he said this.
"My wife and I are old, and we both sleep lightly. At first, they just quarreled when we left for work in the morning, and all kinds of things. Breakfast doesn't taste good, and we don't like to eat onions, ginger, garlic, etc., it's all possible. A point of contention.”
"No one was familiar with it at that time, and several of our neighbors would try to persuade them. Although they didn't look good at the time, at least they wouldn't lose their temper."
"I don't know what happened later, but the frequency of quarrels became more and more frequent. We were almost disturbed by it and there was nothing we could do. Go ahead and say it, or you'll be scolded. Call the police. It's not a violation of civil laws, so we can't handle it."
"It's very troublesome anyway."
Jiang Yang's frown never relaxed. He probably knew why the old man felt that there was no movement.
Because it’s the same every day, I’ve long been numb.
Maybe one day if the noise of the quarrel is lower, it will feel so peaceful.
Humans are very adaptable to their environment.
Sure enough, the next second the old man said: "Well, Officer Jiang, to tell you the truth, we have been living in the noise for almost twenty years, and now we can sleep without being affected."
"You asked me about what happened last night. I really don't have a deep impression. It's not much different from usual times. Oh, by the way, the police came here early yesterday morning. It was the young man upstairs who called the police."
"The young man also rented a house and called the police when he couldn't bear it. The 202 couple have become frequent visitors to the police station. They went there leisurely and came back in more than an hour."
"At that time, my wife and I were still talking about each other. We heard footsteps in the corridor and the sound of the elevator opening the door to confirm that someone was back."
The only disadvantage of the old house is that it has poor sound insulation.
The sound of the added elevator will also be louder than the one in the commercial building.
"Can you tell how many people there are?"
Jiang Yang asked casually.
"Hey, how do I know? Anyway, there is a person whose footsteps are very loud. He should be a boy named Zhang. He usually walks hard and his footsteps are very loud."
The old man added: "By the way, I remembered one thing. They seemed to have been arguing for a long time. There was some noise when I got home in the early morning, but my wife and I were really sleepy, so we fell asleep in a daze."
Jiang Yang asked a few more life-related questions.
For example, have Zhang Lei and Wang Xiaorui entertained guests at their homes, or have they seen anyone visiting their homes?
The old man has lived here for a long time. He goes out for a stroll during the day and goes home to rest at night.
His work and rest schedule just overlaps with that of office workers.
His wife, on the other hand, goes out for a stroll in the morning and goes home to watch TV dramas at noon.
Unexpectedly, her schedule is very similar to Zhang Lei's.
So by coincidence, the old man and his wife have really seen him a few times.
"... But they are all debt collectors."
Grandma tried to recall, "The boy surnamed Zhang didn't work a few years ago. He didn't get up until noon. After waking up, he either went downstairs to buy breakfast or ordered takeout."
"I happened to come back from shopping at that time, and I often met him. I was kind enough to help him collect takeout. In the end, he didn't even say a "thank you", but he even cursed."
Seeing that she was really angry, Jiang Yang quickly comforted her.
The old man whispered to grandma, "Forget it, don't hold a grudge! The person is dead."
"Good is rewarded with good, and evil is rewarded with evil!"
Jiang Yang turned a blind eye and pretended not to hear.
Grandma calmed down and continued, "Several times I saw a stranger come into our building and knock on the door of 202."
"I thought it was a friend at first, but I didn't expect that guy to be so fierce. He kicked the guy out with a kitchen knife. He kept saying things like 'It's impossible to pay back the money'."
"Oh, yes, those who came to our door were all young people, the kind with tattoos on their arms."
