They were already unhappy when they were woken up earlier. At this moment, they had just fallen asleep and were about to fall asleep when they were woken up again. They were even more unhappy.
"That's right. Ask US quickly if you have anything. We still have to go back to sleep."
"If you wake us up every now and then like this, will you still let us go to work?"
"Manager Liu, you are the person in charge here. Tell me, will we still be able to go to work tomorrow?"
"All of you, shut up!" The person in charge, manager Liu, who those people referred to as manager Liu, berated them and then said, "in a while, answer whatever comrade Sheng asks. Don't talk nonsense here."
After manager Liu spoke, the workers obediently shut their mouths.
Sheng Fenghua glanced at the few of them indifferently and then began to ask, "in the past few days, has the deceased been unwell?"
"UNWELL? Who knows?"
"You are in the same room as him. Can you not tell if the deceased is unwell?"
"although we are in the same room as him, we rarely speak."
"think carefully. In the past few days, did the deceased have any unusual behavior, such as coughing?"
Seeing Sheng Fenghua's serious face, the few of them lowered their heads and thought about it seriously. After a short while.. A workmate said, "I remember now. One night when I got up to go to the toilet, I saw him using the quilt to cover himself. His body was moving. At first, I thought he was thinking about his wife, but now that I think about it, he was probably coughing."Then, he didn't want to disturb our sleep, so he used the quilt to cover himself."
"The second question is, did the deceased go out these few days?" Sheng Fenghua asked again.
"Yes, one afternoon, he asked for leave and went out."
"Then why didn't you say anything before?" The police officer who hadn't spoken all this time spoke up, feeling a little annoyed. When they had come to ask before, these workers hadn't mentioned this.
"You didn't ask before either, " one of the workers said matter-of-factly, making the police officer very angry. Indeed, they had asked if there was anything unusual about the deceased before he died, but they hadn't specifically asked if he had left the quarry.
"How long did he go out for? An afternoon?"
"More or less."
"when he came back, did he bring anything back? Or, do you know what he went out to do?"
"We don't know what he went out to do. But when he came back, he brought cough-stopping grass with him."
"By the way, do you usually drink alcohol?" Sheng Fenghua thought of the wine bottle and asked.
"Rarely. Drinking alcohol is bad for business."
"What about the deceased? Doesn't he drink alcohol?"
"He doesn't drink much, just like us. He only drinks once or twice because it's someone's birthday or something."
"Your House smells of alcohol. What's going on?"
"What's wrong with that? He must have bought it. I heard that cough-stopping grass is only effective when it's soaked in alcohol. Otherwise, why would he be willing to buy it?"
Sheng Fenghua watched. She couldn't get anything out of these people, so she asked them to go back.
The workers left. Sheng Fenghua and the others didn't stay long. After asking manager Liu to protect the scene, they went to his office.
They were going to check the leave request records and the departure records to see if the deceased had really left the quarry.
When they arrived at the office, Manager Liu took out the security guard's registration book from the cabinet and started to check. However, after flipping through it, they didn't find any record of the deceased's departure.
This made manager Liu's face turn ugly. Those workers had already said that the deceased had gone out. However, this registration book wasn't there. So, did they miss it, or was there another reason?
