Chapter 138.

“Cheng Tou, that house cat was found, but it’s dead.”

“Dead, how did it die?”

“Initial judgment is that it fell into the water and drowned.” Xu Qinghe period a sound, “Now, those two families are in a mess, one side insisted that the cat was drowned by the other side thrown into the water tank, and had to pay for the other side to go to jail, one side let the other side to come up with evidence to ……”

“What cat?”

“Persian cat.”

“The long-haired kind?”

“Yes, that’s the kind that sheds hair especially easily ……”

“Where was the cat found?”

“In the water tank in the courtyard patio, which has lotus flowers, no one realized that the cat would be in there, it would not be easy to find out if it didn’t float up on its own.”

“Alright, take me there, such a small case, you can’t even solve it.” Cheng Mo also felt a headache, this kind of chicken scratch case is very difficult to handle, especially when one side also involves the Japanese, that’s what kills.

Encountered reasonable, but also good to do, this if the brutal and unreasonable, then the next have to engage in.

The case was not too complicated.

Rented in Pingwang Street, a Japanese couple, the man works in a Japanese foreign bank, the woman, at home to raise children, usually love to raise a cat, a flower arrangement and so on.

This is nothing, their own home to raise a kitten and so on, as long as it does not affect others, there is no problem, but the cat is loose, kittens are not people, it can restrain their own behavior, the Persian cat likes to run around, the neighbors can tolerate the natural tolerance.

But there are people who can’t stand it, this Miss Xia loves cleanliness, a little bit of cleanliness fetish, but also particularly allergic to hair and other substances.

So the two families often quarreled over the cat.

Now the cat died, the Japanese hostess identified as Miss Xia did, after all, how much she hated her cat, the people around know.

Miss Xia naturally denied, the cat did not die in their own home, it fell into the courtyard patio tank drowned, how can be counted on her head?

So the two quarreled, and even fought, the man of the house is quite reasonable, think a cat small matter, not at all guilty of this.

Even every quarrel, as long as he is at home, he has to pull away from his wife, and will even apologize to Miss Xia.

Details determine the direction of the case.

Cheng Mo followed Xu Qinghe to Pingwang Street, first went to see this Miss Xia, this Miss Xia is not very old, should be less than thirty years old, it is said to be a small actor, signed with the movie company, basically playing some supporting roles and so on.

Sort of a small star it, rented two rooms on the second floor, the Japanese couple it, because with children, many people, rented in the downstairs.

The two families are upstairs and downstairs neighbors, in addition to their two families, this yard there are two other people, an old couple of landlords, living directly across the hall downstairs, upstairs empty, not rented, there are two compartments, the Japanese couple live across the street, one rented to a single man, the other empty, when the miscellaneous room.

The yard is not big, but quite spacious, a large water tank, catching rainwater with, inside planted with lotus, but also do fire prevention, two birds with one stone.

This Persian cat drowned in this tank.

It is said that the cat will be water, there are nine lives, obviously this is false, the water is flooded, must also be a death.

Miss Xia cried and cried for half a day, the central idea is that she was wronged, she is a small woman, usually run a few steps are short of breath, the cat is not close to the people, but also let her to catch, this little beast fell into the tank and drowned, the Japanese bitch must blackmail their own, it is not clear that the bully her a weak woman well! “Well, Ms. Xia, you also don’t cry, this case we will investigate clearly.” Cheng Mo took out a handkerchief and handed it over, saying.

“Thank you.”

“This is our Inspector Cheng, he will definitely do you justice.” Xu Qinghe came to say, but drew a blank stare from Cheng Mo.

What justice, things are not clear yet, you’re assuming that what Ms. Xia said is true.

“Head Cheng, I heard from the surrounding neighbors that Miss Xia likes to eat fish, especially sea fish.”

Sea fish, fishy cat? …… “Mrs. Keiko, can you tell me in detail how your Persian cat Xiaohua disappeared and was found in the water tank outside on the patio?” Cheng Mo also met the mistress of the Japanese couple who had just returned from grocery shopping.

She had just dropped her kids off at school.

“Oh, yes, Mr. Officer ……” Keiko was very young, she should only be in her twenties, but didn’t have the kind of small-mindedness that Japanese women had, instead speaking with a hint of spunk in her tone.

Japanese women are not all out of the same mold, there are always one or two that are exceptions, which is still understandable.

“Mrs. Keiko, does your cat often go upstairs?”

“Not really, but she likes to play and always likes to go up to the roof, it’s the nature of a cat, and she lives upstairs from me, it’s not something I can control.” Keiko explained.

“Then did you know that Ms. Xia upstairs loves cleanliness and is allergic to small animal hair?” Cheng Mo asked.

“That’s not something I haven’t heard before, she goes in and brings some unsavory men back, Mr. Officer, is that still clean?”

“Mrs. Keiko, I’m not talking about that kind of clean!”

“What’s the difference?”

It could be seen that this Japanese woman named Keiko wasn’t very talkative and had quite a tough personality, no wonder she clashed with Ms. Xia upstairs.

This Persian cat’s death was just a trigger, I’m only afraid that it wouldn’t be because of this, but also because of something else that a conflict would break out.

“Ms. Keiko, what does your husband do?”

“Does that have anything to do with this matter?”

“Oh, I’m just casually asking, your husband’s income shouldn’t be low, as a matter of fact, he shouldn’t be sharing a room with someone, besides, don’t you Japanese expatriates like to live in Hongkou, you guys, there are too few of you.” Cheng Mo casually said.

“The atmosphere over at Hongkou is too depressing, I don’t like it.” Keiko said.

“Depressing, there are numerous Japanese expatriates there, there are Japanese stores, izakayas, and restaurants, which should be very helpful to your lives.” Cheng Mo added.

“Mr. Officer, where I live is my freedom right, it’s closer to where my husband works and we love Chinese culture, that’s all.” Keiko said impatiently.

“Fine.” Cheng Mo smiled, “How is your husband’s relationship with Ms. Xia?”

“Generally, just meeting each other and greeting each other, not familiar.” Keiko paused for a moment, but still answered.

“Mrs. Huizi, a Persian cat, is always a pet, this neighbor neighbor, make too much of a standoff, this is not good for everyone, what do you say, I think it’s better to be like this, both sides each take a step back, let Miss Xia buy one to compensate for you, you keep a good eye on it in the future, don’t let it bother Miss Xia’s life, okay?” Cheng Mo said.

“In addition to compensating me for a cat, she also has to apologize to me!” Keiko said.

“This one is imposing, people bought a cat for you for the sake of your neighbors, you lost your beloved pet, but now that there is no evidence that your cat’s death is related to Miss Xia, and you want her to make amends and apologize, this is being unreasonable, Mrs. Keiko, you are a civilized person, you should understand this reasoning.” Cheng Mo said with a cold face.

“Then I want an identical cat!”

“That’s impossible, there aren’t two identical cats under the sky, even if the gods come, they can’t do it.” Cheng Mo said flatly.

“Then let her move away.”

“Move away?” Cheng Mo froze, this never seemed to have been mentioned before this, and out of a professional sensitivity, he instinctively felt that this request of Keiko’s was where her true purpose lay.

She wanted to drive Miss Xia out of this courtyard.
