Looking at her expression, Zou Shuang knew what was going on. With a speechless expression on his face, he bent over and looked carefully at the lock on the wooden door.

"It's the most common cross door lock. Have you brought your ID? Let's find the unlocker..."

She reached out her hand to touch the keyhole, and actually wanted to say that she could open this kind of lock even if she was given two clips.

But I didn't expect——

The wooden door creaked, causing her to push it open a crack.

"Your mother didn't lock the door when she left?"

The two looked at each other, confused and then frightened. Qiao suddenly wanted to push the door open, but Zou Shuang elbowed her open and dragged her back two steps.

"Don't move." Zou Shuang looked calm, then took out his mobile phone and dialed 110.

The police arrived very quickly. Zou Shuang showed the police officer's certificate to the other party. When the other party saw that it was a colleague from the imperial capital, he thought that there was some serious serial case that needed cooperation, and his attitude immediately became serious. The police stations that dispatched the police almost ran out of their nests, surrounded the alleys, and went door-to-door to make notes.

Three tall police officers took the lead and pushed the wooden door open bit by bit.

What people didn't expect was that the courtyard was peaceful and not as messy as everyone imagined.

A few fallen leaves were spread here and there in the small courtyard. In the middle of the courtyard, there were still piles of dishes and chopsticks that had been washed but not taken back into the cupboard in the cement pool. Now a thin layer of dust had fallen on them.

"It seems that your mother left very quickly."

After Zou Shuang finished speaking, he walked into the room first.

The layout of the house has hardly been damaged or turned over. The front dining room, the back living room, and the southeast corner of the living room are connected by a narrow staircase leading directly to the upstairs.

Zou Shuang stood at the door and did not go in. She squatted down and looked sideways at the ground.

The floor of the dining room is concrete, so I can't see why.

But further inside, the floor of the living room was paved with floor tiles, and there was dust everywhere in the house that had not been lived in for two months. If someone really broke in illegally, they would definitely leave footprints.

However, Zou Shuang looked carefully at the entire floor of the living room with a flashlight, but did not find a single footprint.

She smiled incredulously, and said to herself, "Could it be that we made a mistake, your house is just locked, and no one has ever entered?"

Qiao Yi frowned, didn't answer her words, and looked upstairs, "Go up and see, the bedrooms of the three of us are upstairs."

The wooden stairs were overwhelmed by everyone's trampling, creaking, as if it was about to collapse.

Upstairs, Qiao Yi immediately looked at Qiao Lian's room. When she found that the door of Qiao Lian's room was closed, she tensed up.

"My mother never had the habit of locking the door in that room."

Everyone gathered in front of Qiao Lian's house, separated by a door, no one knew what was going on in that house, but their intuition told them that this was the first scene of the crime.

The tall police officer who led everyone into the room just reached out and pressed the doorknob.

With a slight click, a beam of light poured out from the crack of the door.

The windows in Qiao Lian's room were open, and all the cabinets, drawers, and places that could hold things were ripped out. Clothes, shoes, books, cosmetics, and messy things were spread all over the floor...

"Do you remember any precious jewellery, cash, or gold that your mother had as a store of value?"

"Does your mother have enemies?"

"Do you know your mother's social circle? Do you know who her best friend is?"

...

Facing the police officer's questioning, Qiao Yi shook his head...
