246 Heart Hurts Too Much to Even Breathe 10 (1/2)
”Ok, how about her other personality traits and personal interests, as well as her hobbies?”
”The majority answered that Wu Changqing was rather pessimistic and had a very negative outlook on life, besides being rebellious. She often expected the worst and remained quiet and moody most of the time. As for her hobbies and interests, most of the people who knew her said that she enjoyed cultivating flowers in her free time. They also mentioned that she planted a garden of flowers in the backyard of her home when she was living with her grandmother,” Gong Le answered.
After a moment of pondering in silence, An Xiaoning said, ”Cultivating flowers? She wouldn't be able to do so at the nightclub where she stayed at. At most, she could only buy some potted flowers that she could water daily. Everyone, go with me to visit her dormitory.”
”Alright.”
An Xiaoning arrived with her colleagues at the nightclub by car. Due to the fact that it was daytime, the usual boisterousness of the nightclub was nowhere to be found, and the entire place was filled with serenity and silence. The manager in charge then brought them to the dormitory Wu Changqing used to stay in when she was alive.
The four of them looked at each other in dismay upon sight of the room.
”She'd been staying in this room and she slept on this bed in the past,” said the manager, pointing towards a bed on which a few women were sleeping.
The few women quickly hid their faces upon hearing that the police had entered, for they feared seeing the police at the nightclub the most.
An Xiaoning scanned her surroundings to find that it was a rather small room, though there was a balcony and a washroom outside. However, there was an anti-theft system secured to the window of the balcony. The window was also facing the west, thus making it a poor environment for flowers to thrive in, since sunlight was scarce.
”Has she ever brought flowers back here?”
”No, she has never brought any flowers home,” one of the women in the dormitory answered confidently.
”Then, does she come back here to rest every day? Or does she only return once every few days?”
”She comes home every day.”
”Thank you for your cooperation. We'll drop by again should we have any further inquiries,” An Xiaonning said to the manager.
”Don't mention it, Team Leader An. It's only part of our duty. Feel free to come by again if you have any other questions for us.”
”Sure.” An Xiaoning exited the dormitory, while Ma Jianguo, Zu Dong, and Gong Le followed closely behind. Find authorized novels in Webnovel，faster updates, better experience，Please clickfor visiting.
A smile formed on An Xiaoning's face as soon as they got on the car.
”Team Leader, why are you smiling…?” asked Ma Jianguo, widening his eyes in surprise.
”Did you guys find anything after taking a look at her dormitory?”
”Yes, that cultivating flowers is not possible at all,” Zu Dong answered.
”That's right. I'm not sure if we're working towards the right direction, but I hope we can get something out of this lead. If not, we'll just search for new clues. So now, we have to begin searching for clues from property agents. She must've wanted to move out of the dormitory back then. Didn't you see how cramped and pungent it was? A pessimistic and introverted woman who enjoys growing flowers wouldn't enjoy living in groups. Thus, she must've been constantly searching for a house that comes with a backyard to move into. She should've also been looking for property housed in locations near the hospital where her grandmother is receiving treatment,” An Xiaoning said with much seriousness.
An Xiaoning smirked and continued, ”Go check up on all the property agencies near the hospital her grandmother is currently residing in. Bring her photos along with you.”
”I'm suddenly enlightened after hearing your analysis, Team Leader,” said Ma Jianguo, giving her a thumbs-up excitedly.
”What are you waiting for then? Drive to the police station, then you three shall visit the property agencies near the hospital. There should only be a few around. Also, remember to ask for the birth characters of any suspicious persons you see. It'll help with resolving the case,” An Xiaoning instructed.
”Yes!”
