Chapter 18 The Stocking Killer

Eliminate all the impossible, and the rest, no matter how impossible, is the truth!
— Conan Doyle, Sherlock Holmes

The interrogation room was brightly lit, the smell of smoke mixed with sweat permeated the cramped space, and the atmosphere was damp and chaotic.Two middle-aged policemen sat at one end of the long interrogation table with their arms folded, with gloomy faces and serious eyes; And trepidation, revealing that he may not be so clear-hearted.

At this moment, there is a laptop in front of the man, and an eye-catching video is playing on the screen. Judging from the picture pixels and aspect ratio, the video is shot with a mobile phone, and the scene is in a simple residential building. , to be precise, in the living room of this folk house:

The camera first took a panoramic view of the living room, which seemed to be only about ten square meters, and the furnishings were quite simple, including a dark brown couch, a log-colored coffee table, and a log-colored floor-to-ceiling TV cabinet; then the camera focused on the sofa On the floor below, women's clothing such as long skirts, bras, panties, and stockings are scattered on it; the camera dangles and gradually shifts, and finally focuses on the center of the living room, where a snow-white nude woman appears in the picture.

The woman is naked.Her eyes were slightly closed, her face was red and swollen, there were a few bloodstains on the corners of her eyes and mouth, and a large purple bruise in the middle of her forehead was particularly eye-catching.Originally, the face was already hard to discern, but from the bloated figure and the few strands of white strands intermingled with the curly black hair, it could be roughly inferred that it was an elderly woman.

The photographer seems to have more to say, shooting around the naked woman from all angles.After a while, the camera freezes, and the photographer puts the mobile phone on the side of the woman's body to "pose a picture", frees up a pair of hands wearing milky white latex gloves, picks up the stockings on the floor and wraps them around the woman's neck, doing it with all her strength. Make a strangling move.In the end, it seems that after confirming that the woman is completely dead, the stockings are left on the woman's neck, and a beautiful "knot" is tied...

"Enough...enough!" The marathon-like confrontation and the psychological oppression caused by the repeated video playback seemed to make the man under interrogation on the verge of collapse. He drooped his head, rubbed his cheeks nervously with his hands, and shouted loudly, "Please." Don't let it go anymore! This case has nothing to do with me, how many times do you have to tell me to believe it!"

"Then how do you explain the evidence we found?" One of the two police officers opposite asked in a low voice.

"I said, I don't know..." The man emphasized his innocence with a long voice, paused, raised his head and tried to restrain his emotions, "Well, tell me, what is my motive for committing the crime? With my What kind of conditions can't find a woman, why would I do such a dirty and cruel thing to an old woman?"

"It's very simple," another policeman leaned forward and said coldly, "Because you're a pervert!"

"You... how dare you insult people like this..." The man couldn't help but stood up abruptly, with a ferocious face, looking extremely annoyed.He was stunned, then calmed down, sat back on the chair, snorted, and said in a bold tone: "If you want to commit a crime, there is no excuse. You can't solve the case and want to use me as a substitute, but it's not that easy. I want to meet someone, and I won't answer any of your questions until I see her..."

On May 5, the night-vision clock on the bedside table showed the time was approaching midnight.

A burst of soft music suddenly sounded in the darkness, but it was still particularly harsh in the quiet late night. Gu Feifei, who was awakened from a deep sleep, habitually reached out to find the phone from the pillow, pressed the answer button and put it to her ear...

"Hello, is this Comrade Gu Feifei? I'm sorry to disturb you so late!" Before Gu Feifei could speak, an apologetic voice came from the other end of the phone.

"Well, it's me." Gu Feifei closed her eyes and answered vaguely.

"We are from Xizhou Municipal Public Security Bureau. There is a very urgent case that needs your assistance. Can you come to us as soon as possible?" After greeting, the other party stopped being polite and went straight to the point.

"The normal procedure is that you need to apply to the Support Department of the General Administration first, and then we can go there." Gu Feifei was still in an unconscious state, and said lazily.

"Oh, no, in fact, this matter is mainly related to you..." The other end of the phone paused for a while, as if considering the words, and then said, "We have already caught the suspect, and we can basically identify him as the murderer. It’s just that he put forward a condition that puzzled us, saying that he would only confess the facts of the crime if he saw you.”

"Is it related to me? Who is he?" Gu Feifei was a little impatient when she received such a confusing phone call in the middle of the night. She forced her eyes open and asked angrily.

"His name is Geng Hao." When the other party mentioned the suspect's name, he deliberately emphasized his tone.

"Who, Geng Hao?!" Gu Feifei shuddered and sat up suddenly...

Inexplicable expedition in the first quarter
Directorate General of Criminal Investigation, Serious Case Support Department.

In the morning, as soon as Wu Guoqing stepped into the office, Gu Feifei followed her closely. Seeing her frowning slightly with a gloomy face, Wu Guoqing thought something unexpected happened, so he hurriedly asked, "Why, there's a big case. Arrived at my door?"

"Xizhou city, two rape and murder cases, the suspects have been arrested." Gu Feifei closed the door casually, with a cautious look on her face.

"Then why are you still restless?" Wu Guoqing put the briefcase on the desk, took off his coat and hung it on the hanger, and asked with his back turned.

"The case seems to involve me." Gu Feifei bit her lower lip and said softly.

"It's related to you?" Wu Guoqing turned around and sat on the executive chair, with a look of surprise on his face, pointing to the reception sofa, "Sit down and talk slowly."

"I received a call from the Xizhou police in the middle of the night yesterday, asking me to go to their place, saying that the suspect in the case wanted to meet with me..." Gu Feifei briefly recounted the content of the call.

"Do you know the suspect?" Wu Guoqing asked immediately.

"Yeah." Gu Feifei stared at the floor and nodded as if avoiding it.

"Close relationship?" Wu Guoqing asked.

"It used to be." Gu Feifei hesitated.

"Ex-boyfriend?" Seeing Gu Feifei being so coy, Wu Guoqing guessed it in his heart.

"Yes, his name is Geng Hao. We met abroad and have been dating for more than four years." Gu Feifei breathed out, raised her head and pretended to be relaxed.

"We've been together for a long time, why did we break up, this kid has someone else?" Wu Guoqing showed a trace of regret on his face.

"No, he is very decent and treats me very well. The problem lies with me." Gu Feifei seemed to approve of Geng Hao's character, shaking her head vigorously and explained, "I rejected his marriage proposal in public, and then..."

"You don't like people making surprises, so you turned them down in full view?" Wu Guoqing snorted and continued. Based on his understanding of Gu Feifei's character, it is not difficult to guess what happened.

"You really saw me through at a glance. In fact, I am quite different, and I can even be said to be a little indifferent and not easy to get along with." Gu Feifei squeezed out a wry smile and laughed at herself, "I have communicated with Teacher Han Yin, he It is said that I have developed such a personality because of family environment factors, and it is also related to my low EQ-when I feel unable to establish a certain relationship and communication with others, I will hide myself in an indifferent face, saying It’s also a sign of insecurity.”

"Ms. Han' hits the nail on the head!" Wu Guoqing nodded sincerely, and then smiled, "But your temper is much better now, and our colleagues here have a great impression of you."

"Everyone is just accommodating me." Gu Feifei pursed her lips politely, and immediately became serious again, and said, "Actually, Geng Hao's conditions were quite good at that time. He got a master's degree in business administration and worked in an internationally renowned public relations marketing company. My job is pretty stable. But it’s always in a foreign country. I always have a strong sense of insecurity in my subconscious, a little obsessive-compulsive. The girl in my life seems to be a very romantic surprise, but for me, there is a kind of annoyance of being kept in the dark, and the scene of being caught off guard makes me very embarrassed. Of course, the most important thing is that I am not ready to marry. People’s mental preparation.” Gu Feifei’s face was complicated, she couldn’t tell whether it was regret or guilt, she sighed and continued, “Cough, I don’t know how to go around, I’m afraid it’s a big flaw in my character! It hurt so badly, and we started to get along with each other after that, and the estrangement gradually increased, until finally everyone felt tired and could only end up staying away from each other."

"You're still young and immature. If the two sides can be more tolerant and less impulsive, maybe..." Wu Guoqing swallowed halfway through his words, because he suddenly thought that people Gu Feifei and Han Yin were just dating now, so he hurriedly turned around. Changed the topic, and asked a series of questions, "When did Geng Hao return to China? What are you doing now? Have you guys met after the breakup?"

"He came back earlier than me, and there was no news at first, but we met at a party at the beginning of the year. We all know the initiator of the party, and the invitees are all friends who met abroad together back then. I only knew something about him at that time. Gu Feifei’s eyes flashed brightly, and she seemed very happy for Geng Hao, “His hometown is in Xizhou City, and he started his own business after returning to China. He did several commercial projects but were not very successful. He started to write novels next time. His writing style was good, and he dabbled in business war topics that he was very familiar with. It is said that he quickly stood out in the circle and is now a very famous best-selling author. This new book is going to Beijing for signing, so I can be there."

"The career is so good, why would you do such a thing?" Wu Guoqing asked in bewilderment.

"To be honest, it's hard to believe based on what I know about him, so I want to take a few days off with you and go to Xizhou to find out." Gu Feifei's eyes were straight, and she seemed to be conflicted in her heart.

"That's easy to say, you take Hero and Xiaomei with you, and take care of them more." Wu Guoqing agreed straightforwardly.

"It's not very good. After all, it's my private matter, so don't take up resources in the department!" Gu Feifei tactfully rejected Wu Guoqing's kindness, not because of politeness, but because she didn't want to expose her private life in front of more people.Except of course Wu Guoqing and Han Yin, one is her most admired teacher and the other is her most important partner in life.

"No, you listen to me, take them with you." Wu Guoqing thought for a moment, then insisted, "I have been a policeman for so many years, and this is the first time I have encountered such a thing. I have an intuition that the case may not be what we imagined. It's so simple, you must be able to use these two children!"

"Okay, I'll tell them to get ready." Gu Feifei raised her wrist and looked at her watch, "There's a flight after 11 o'clock, so I should be able to catch it."

"Be careful." Wu Guoqing urged, raising his hand.

"Understood." Gu Feifei responded briefly, then turned and walked out of the office.

Xizhou City, located in the West China Plain, is a subtropical humid area, with many clouds and fog, heavy humidity and insufficient sunshine all the year round. At this time, the spring and summer alternate season, the temperature is not high, but it also makes people feel a bit suffocated and heat.

They got off the plane and rushed to the criminal police detachment. It was almost 3 o'clock in the afternoon. After a brief greeting with several detachment leaders, they were ushered into the meeting room.Although this trip is not a formal support mission, Gu Feifei hopes to have a sufficient understanding of the whole case before having a dialogue with the suspect Geng Hao.

The leader of the special case team is Zhang Shijie, the captain of the Criminal Police Detachment of Xizhou City. He looks middle-aged, not tall, and has a slightly fatter figure. It may be that he has been busy with the case recently and stayed up too late. His complexion is not very good-looking, sallow and sallow. Dark circles under the eyes, but still full of air when speaking.He introduced the case in conjunction with the flashing screen of the projection screen (because the first case occurred on April 4 of this year, this series of cases is named "23" case):
"Case 4 occurred around 23:10 am on April 30 this year; the place of the incident was Room 2, Unit 90, Building 3, District 201, Xinle 56, Xinle Street, Wushun District, this city; the victim's name was Li Fang, female, 7 years old , a retired teacher, her husband passed away due to illness, and her only son married and lived alone. Li Fang is cheerful and likes to dance square dances in the convenience park of the community on weekdays. According to the memories of the dancers, she came at 10 o'clock in the morning as usual on the day of the crime, and then She left around [-] o'clock, and no one saw her again. Judging from the time point, Li Fang should have been killed shortly after returning home after dancing. He was strangled to death. Since there were no signs of prying on the door lock, and no signs of violent entry were found. Previously, we analyzed that either an acquaintance committed the crime, or the murderer used some reason to trick him into opening the door, and killed him when he was not prepared. "

"Case 5 happened around 7 am on May 9th; the place of the incident was Room 2, Unit 75, Building 2, Xinle 603 District, Xinle Street, Wushun District, this city; the victim was Sun Jiahui, female, 54 years old, a retired worker, Divorced for many years, she lives with her daughter's family. Her daughter and son-in-law go to work from 7 to 40. Sun Jiahui is responsible for housework and picks up her grandson who goes to kindergarten in the morning and evening. According to her daughter, Sun Jiahui usually sends her children to kindergarten at around 9:[-] in the morning. Then I went to the nearby morning market to buy vegetables, and it was almost [-] o'clock when I got home. The process of her murder was similar to the previous case, and she was also raped..."

Several people were listening intently, when Zhang Shijie suddenly stopped talking, and winked at the assistant at the side, and the assistant knew how to operate the laptop in front of him, and soon a video began to play on the projection screen: a woman lying on her back on the floor On the top, naked, the face was brutally beaten... A close-up shot showed a flesh-colored "stocking" wrapped around his neck, and the knot was tied into a bow...

"This is the murder process, why do you have a video?" Ai Xiaomi, who had not said a word, asked in surprise.

"Yes, this is the video of Li Fang's murder. Before he was strangled to death, he was raped." Zhang Shijie showed a hint of anger on his face, "The afternoon before yesterday, the team received a courier containing a video recording The CD is probably sent by the murderer!"

"Shouting the police?" Du Yingxiong said with wide-eyed eyes.

"Almost." Zhang Shijie smiled wryly, "Arrogant enough, right? But this guy is also very secretive. Although the source of the courier is well hidden, the trace inspection department extracted a piece of paper from the outer packaging bag of the CD. Basically complete fingerprints, and find matching fingerprints in the fingerprint database."

"That is to say, the fingerprints on the outer cover of the CD match Geng Hao's fingerprints?" Gu Feifei looked puzzled, unable to imagine what kind of criminal record Geng Hao would have, "How could his fingerprints be entered in the information database?"

"Drunk, got into fights, and was dealt with by the police station." Zhang Shijie sneered, "By the way, when we arrested him this time, he even attacked the police!"

"Oh..." Gu Feifei half-opened her mouth, she was at a loss for words. In her impression, Geng Hao didn't drink at all, and was always modest, polite and polite. .

Zhang Shijie has been in the officialdom for many years, and he is also good at observing words and expressions. Seeing that Gu Feifei's face was somewhat ugly, he slowed down and asked: "Geng Hao proposed to meet you at this time, must you have a good relationship?"

Although Gu Feifei was stunned, her brain was thinking quickly: Zhang Shijie's mood is wrong, how could there be resentment inside and outside the words?This is not the proper emotion between the investigator and the suspect. Is it a personal grievance or something else?Gu Feifei couldn't figure out why for a while, so she decided to make some reservations about the question just now.

"We had a good relationship in the early years, but we haven't had much contact in recent years." Gu Feifei deliberately kept her tone of voice from showing any emotion, "Apart from fingerprints, what evidence can link Geng Hao to the case?"

"Geng Hao wrote a book called "The Strangler" at the beginning of the year, you should know?" Zhang Shijie asked back.

"I've heard of it, but I don't know the details." Gu Feifei said.

"Okay, let's start with this book." Zhang Shijie seemed to be prepared, and raised a finger to indicate, "First, it is said that Geng Hao's new book is selling very well, and he has been busy in recent months. There is not much time in this city for the signings and lectures all over the country. We confirmed his itinerary through his agent. What is suspicious is that whenever a murder occurs, Geng Hao will fly back to this city the day before. And no one can prove his whereabouts on the day of the incident, and even this time when the team received a courier, he only came back the day before, and we don't think this is just a coincidence."

"Secondly, in 2007, there was a vicious series of cases in this city that were very similar to the '4' case, which we call the '23' case. Given the particularly bad circumstances of the case and the fact that certain details are critical to the series of cases It plays a key role. Part of the plot of the case has been tightly sealed and has not been released to the public. And Geng Hao’s new book is based on this series of cases, and certain plots are obviously alluding to our unpublished..."

"What are the undisclosed details of the case you are referring to?" Gu Feifei interrupted Zhang Shijie and asked.

"Although the deceased's body was first discovered by the family members in the case, fortunately, after taking notes for them, we found that these family members only remembered that there were stockings on the neck of the deceased, but they didn't notice that the stockings were tied into bows, so Our police station has unified thinking and sealed this plot tightly. On the one hand, we believe that this perverted behavior will easily encourage the murderer's arrogance if it spreads; on the other hand, it will help us identify the identity of the case. And Geng The murderer in Hao’s works also used stockings to make a fuss around the neck of the deceased, but changed the bow tie to a red scarf, so we think he actually knew the inside story, and only made creative modifications for certain purposes.” Zhang Shijie explained .

"I understand what you mean. The two murder cases today are essentially imitations of the series of cases in the early years, and some details of the case have not yet been deciphered. Only the murderer himself and the core investigators were familiar with the modus operandi. Now you I think there is another Geng Hao. However, after his new book was published, another case with extremely similar details of the crime appeared, and combined with the fingerprint evidence extracted from the CD, and the evidence that he was not at the scene when the crime did not occur, Geng Hao That's enough suspicion, right?"

Gu Feifei finally straightened out the context of some things, and then a shadow was cast in her heart.Although Zhang Shijie said that there is no problem with the logic of handling the case, in the end, all he has is indirect evidence, and there are even some inferences. Based on these alone, Geng Hao was arrested and he showed his cards. There was really a grudge between each other, and she began to believe that there must be factors other than the case that caused this situation, especially when Geng Hao didn't ask to see a lawyer, but proposed to meet her, it was probably unspeakable, thinking of these, she began to feel that there was something wrong Need to see Geng Hao as soon as possible.

"We can talk now." Gu Feifei's heart was overwhelmed, but she remained calm on the surface.

"It's time for dinner, why don't you eat first?" Zhang Shijie looked up at the clock on the wall and asked tentatively.

"Let's talk first!" Gu Feifei knew in her heart that Zhang Shijie was just being polite, and he was more anxious about this conversation than anyone else.

Chapter Two
trial room.

Gu Feifei looked calm and sat firmly on the chair behind the interrogation table. She turned off the strong light on the table and turned on the light, which made the indoor light much softer and reduced the tension a little.

Not long after, the door opened and Geng Hao was brought in. When he saw Gu Feifei at first glance, his tired face immediately showed joy.Gu Feifei nodded to the police officer behind him, indicating that he could go out, and then waved her hand to the chair in front of Geng Hao, telling him to sit down and talk.

"I didn't expect you to come all the way to see me, thank you so much!" Geng Hao's tone trembled, and he looked extremely excited.

"You asked to see me, now that I'm here, what do you want to say?" Gu Feifei's face was calm, her tone was flat.

"Cough...cough..." The smile on Geng Hao's face disappeared suddenly, maybe it was Gu Feifei's attitude that made him feel a little hot on his face and cold ass, he coughed twice to hide his disappointment, and then said with an unusually solemn expression , "I was wronged, you know me best, how could I kill people, or those old people, am I crazy?"

"But the evidence is against you!" Gu Feifei confronted.

"I have explained to them many times: it was indeed a coincidence that I returned to this city when those two cases happened, and it was so easy to have a free day, I really didn't want to go out, and I didn't want to see anyone, just by myself Staying at home listening to music, drinking tea, and conceiving new works is very enjoyable for me, where can I find witnesses?" Geng Hao said a little excitedly, "As for the fingerprints left on the CD that belong to me It's even more inexplicable, someone must be framing me."

"Who do you think it is and why?"

"It's a long story."

"It's okay, talk as long as you want, I'm here to listen to you."

"Okay, I said!"

After several times of verbal probing, Geng Hao felt even more depressed. The old man on the opposite side was so wary of him. Given their previous relationship, he felt very uncomfortable.He blinked his eyes hard, squeezed out an unnatural smile, and subconsciously looked at the mirror on the wall next to him. He knew who was standing behind the mirror, but he couldn't help thinking about the situation right now, so he went Said in a low tone:

"Maybe all the problems stem from my new book - before publishing this novel, I took a long period of rest, which is called hibernation, in essence, I just couldn't write. My agent suggested that we might as well change our thinking , trying to write some crime suspense themes that are popular among young people today, and suggested that the story draw on a serial murder case that happened in the local area many years ago. I went out to study early, and then went abroad. The case was unheard of. Afterwards, I checked the relevant information on the Internet, and many of the plots touched me a lot, so I decided to use the case as the background, add a logical fiction, and write it in the way of "pseudo-documentary literature" For this reason, I began to extensively collect media reports on the case in those years, and at the same time searched for all disclosures and discussions related to the case through the Internet.

"The problem is that after reading all the materials repeatedly and privately contacting several reporters who had done in-depth reports on the case, especially after doing in-depth research on the murderer, I think that the real murderer is someone else, and the so-called murderer's confession is very difficult. It may be just a play directed by some overjoyed case investigators, in order to gain capital for promotion, and even do even more astonishing actions to cover up fraudulent behavior. Therefore, I made relevant insinuations in the book according to my own conclusions, I think it may irritate some people and make them feel uncomfortable. Let’s talk about the fight a while ago. It has nothing to do with me. It was my friend who drank too much and started a dispute with someone. I actually started the fight. I was also detained in a daze. And when I was arrested this time, I was just a little dazed at the time. I subconsciously broke free and knocked down a policeman. These people said that I assaulted the police. I think they were targeting me. They deliberately wanted to show me some color, and now they have an excellent opportunity for revenge, the fingerprints on that CD, maybe they deliberately planted me."

"Are you a writer with boundless and rich imagination?" Gu Feifei slightly raised the corners of her mouth and said sharply, "I admit that there have been several unjust, false and wrongly decided cases with very bad influence in some parts of the country, but I still believe that Most of my colleagues can stick to the law and professional ethics, and handle cases according to law!"

"If it wasn't for them, would it be the real murderer?" Geng Hao has no time to worry about being treated coldly. In his opinion, he must find a way to persuade Gu Feifei to intervene in this case, otherwise the negative impact on him will be Immeasurable, so he immediately put forward another idea, "As I said just now, I think the real murderer is still at large, so I need to explain this in the book, so I set the murderer as a woman with Oedipus tendencies." The pervert, after adulthood, has sexual dysfunction under the entanglement of guilt, and can only obtain sexual pleasure in the crazy and perverted killing, and the type of violation is a middle-aged woman who likes to wear stockings like his mother. In the end, I am kind The metaphor of evil reincarnation will eventually be rewarded, and arranged for him to suffer from testicular cancer and die of a sudden illness, so as to express the idea that even if the murderer can escape the legal sanction by chance, God will punish him twice! Hypothetically, no, I think it may be true, if the murderer is really at large, then he may evoke many "good memories" after reading my book; or he may be very angry, thinking that I have portrayed him too badly, so he commits the crime again . On the one hand to relive the thrill, on the other hand to tease and challenge me and the police.”

"Let's not talk about this for now, let me explain why you set up an additional plot in the book to tie stockings into a red scarf." Gu Feifei stared straight into Geng Hao's eyes, "As far as I know, there should be no such rumors in the outside world. .”

"I said it was my own creative thinking, do you believe it?"

"What do you think?"

"Really, I didn't know there was a 'stockings bow' at all before. They told me when they interrogated me this time, so I found out." Geng Hao explained with a pale face anxiously, "The setting of the 'red scarf' is completely Considering the fullness of the story in the novel, it is the concentration of the scene where the mother is tying the red scarf on the child, in order to highlight the symbolic meaning of the 'mother' in the whole case."

"Oh." Gu Feifei nodded, and had to say that Geng Hao's explanation was convincing.

Seeing that Gu Feifei seemed to be persuaded, Geng Hao struck while the iron was hot and said, "But you should be aware of the current situation. Team Zhang and the others are obviously prejudiced against me. I'm worried that if they still can't catch the murderer, they will make even more mistakes. Unscrupulous tricks. It is not easy for me today, I heard that you and your team are very good, for the sake of the past, please help me?"

Gu Feifei didn't respond in silence, her eyes were fixed on Geng Hao.After all, she once loved the man in front of her, and now that he is in such a situation, it is impossible for Gu Feifei to leave him alone, not to mention that she is already interested in the case.After pondering for a long time, she said with a solemn attitude: "First of all, you must know that my appearance here has nothing to do with our relationship, I came for the truth; second, until now, I still cannot judge your innocence. Or not; third, if you want me to help with the investigation, then you must promise that if you really find out that the case has nothing to do with you, you will swallow this experience in your stomach, and you must not use it to hype it up, which will have a negative impact on the police; Fourth, you have to be mentally prepared that your financial transactions, mobile phone and network communication records, etc. will be thoroughly reviewed, and you will have no privacy at all!"

"No matter what the conditions are, I will agree, as long as I can be innocent!" Geng Hao said with eyes full of expectation.

Holding Geng Hao steady, Gu Feifei walked out of the interrogation room, and then opened the door of the observation room next door, seeing Du Yingxiong, Ai Xiaomei and Zhang Shijie staring at Geng Hao through the one-way glass.Zhang Shijie turned around and nodded slightly at her, then walked to her side, and said lightly: "We can cooperate with you, but we don't have much time. After all, we can't lock him up for a few days with the excuse of assaulting the police."

Zhang Shijie's attitude can be regarded as a good man, after all, he was the one who recruited him with a phone call, and now he wants to clarify the matter thoroughly, so he can't be too unkind, even though he is reluctant in his heart.Of course, Gu Feifei's cautious attitude and loyalty to the interests of the police during the entire interview also benefited him a lot.

"Thank you!" Gu Feifei nodded thoughtfully, followed by pursing her lower lip, and said embarrassingly, "It's my personal request, please tell me, don't let the news of Geng Hao's investigation Reveal it!"

"Okay, no problem!" Zhang Shijie "hummed" contemptuously, gave Gu Feifei a deep look, opened the door and walked out.

The third quarter turns around
Detachment Technical Department, Forensic Medicine Department, early the next morning.

The person who received Gu Feifei was a young female forensic doctor with a nice name, Zhong Xinying.The little girl is modest and well-behaved, she yelled at Teacher Gu one by one, and respected her very much.

Zhong Xinying led Gu Feifei into the dissection room, and pulled out a shaved female body from a row of refrigerators. She gently lifted the victim's head, showed Gu Feifei the contusion on the back of the head, and said : "There were multiple scalp hematomas in the back of the brain, bleeding under the skin, facial swelling, fracture of the left wing of the nasal bone, and rupture of the tympanic membranes in different degrees on the left and right ears, which were caused by violent attacks with bare hands. Suffocation." Zhong Xinying took two steps forward, and then pulled out a refrigerator drawer, and the body of another victim appeared. Zhong Xinying pointed to his face and said, "This one is similar. It was also attacked with bare hands, and the contusions were distributed on the forehead. And near the frontal bones on both sides of the head, there were subcutaneous hemorrhages, and the sphenoid bones and cheekbones on both sides were fractured and fractured to varying degrees. Come over, open the bow with both fists left and right, and hit him hard on the front. Strangulation marks and strangulation marks were found on the neck, and the upper horn of the thyroid cartilage and the greater horn of the hyoid bone were fractured, indicating that the victim had actually been strangled to death by the murderer during the fight. Perhaps as a precaution, the murderer strangled them with stockings at the end. Both victims were viciously sexually assaulted, but no physical evidence such as body hair and semen was collected that could point to the murderer, nor was there any lubricant residue on the outside of the condom According to the preliminary judgment, the murderer should have used the method of external ejaculation and cleaned up properly."

"Compared with the '3' case, what do you think?" Gu Feifei asked patiently after listening to the young forensic doctor's report.

"I deliberately pulled out previous reports and studied them carefully. From the perspective of autopsy, I think it is a continuation of the same case." Zhong Xinying said without thinking.

"Okay, let's do this first, hard work!"

Gu Feifei smiled and stretched out her hand. Zhong Xinying hurried up to hold it, and said with a sincere expression: "You are my idol, it is a great honor to meet you today!"

Department of Trace Inspection.

Since the murderer wore gloves when he committed the crime, and cleaned up the scene very carefully after committing the crime, no physical evidence about the murderer was found during the on-site investigation.This is not what Gu Feifei expected. What she is interested in is the stockings tied around the victim's neck. It can be said that the murderer's movements on the "stockings" are extraordinary during the whole process of committing the crime.Of course, in her impression, Geng Hao never seemed to have any special preference for women wearing stockings.

This time she was greeted by a male technician wearing glasses, who also looked very young. He handed two numbered evidence bags to Gu Feifei, and then introduced: "Victim No. 1's stockings are damaged. , there are fingerprints, skin flakes and bloodstains on it. Judging from the direction of the bloodstains, there are some dripping bloodstains. After comparison, they all belong to the victim himself, which shows that the murderer took off the stockings worn by the victim on his legs and strangled him. The stockings of victim No. 2 were undamaged, with only her fingerprints and stained blood stains on them, indicating that she was not wearing stockings when she was attacked. The murderer probably found a pair of washed stockings at her home after knocking her out. Stockings. Generally speaking, the stockings belong to the victim himself, not brought into the crime scene by the murderer, which is the same as in the '3' case, and the method of tying the stockings into a bow is exactly the same."

The technician introduced that Gu Feifei was not idle, put on gloves and took out the stockings from the two evidence bags respectively, first observed with the naked eye, then stretched them vigorously with both hands, and put the stockings back after careful study Evidence bag, and then fell into a moment of thought...

Seeing that Gu Feifei was a little dazed and seemed to be struggling with something, the technician asked guiltily: "Why, do you think there is a problem?"

"It's not you, it's the murderer's problem. I can't figure it out." Gu Feifei frowned and said with a puzzled face, "Looking at the two cases, it can be seen that the murderer has a feeling for the 'old women' who are 'wearing stockings'." Special complex, that is to say, 'whether to wear stockings' and 'older women' are two essential considerations when he chooses the target of the crime. However, according to the identification results, the No. 2 victim did not go out wearing stockings on the day he was killed, and the murderer Why lock her up?"

"Maybe she often wears stockings, but it just happened that she didn't wear them on the day she was killed." The technician thought hard and said.

"First of all, perverted killers are perfectionists. Only a model that completely matches the target he wants to hunt can arouse his desire to commit crimes to the greatest extent; secondly, victim No. 2 should not usually wear stockings." Gu Feifei obviously Just thinking about this question, she pointed to the two evidence bags and said firmly, "Look at the stockings of victim No. 1, the material is the most common nylon yarn, the elasticity and transparency are average, and the price is also very cheap. It is an affordable choice for elderly women with a high wearing rate of stockings; while the stockings in evidence bag No. 2 are relatively high-end, made of velvet, with very good texture, touch and transparency. Said, maybe only willing to wear it on more formal occasions, not to mention sending grandchildren and shopping in the vegetable market every morning."

"I-I didn't notice this at all." The male technician rubbed the back of his head unnaturally, thought for a while and said, "It seems that the murderer is deliberately misleading and wants us to think that there are silk stockings in both cases. The reason is that, the more important thing is to create the false impression that it is highly similar to the '3' case."

"Yes, there is such a possibility." Gu Feifei nodded, looked around, and asked, "Where is the CD sent by the murderer?"

"The disc was wiped very clean, and the fingerprints were extracted from the bottom right side of the plastic outer packaging bag." The male technician turned sideways, took out two evidence bags containing the optical disc and the outer packaging bag from the evidence cabinet, and handed them to the customer. Feifei then pointed to the desk in front of her and said, "Here is the fingerprint patch."

Gu Feifei glanced at the table for a while, then turned her attention back to her hands. She was not interested in the fingerprints that had been completely extracted. What she was eager to find out was that if it was true as Geng Hao said, he had never seen this fingerprint before. CD, so how did his fingerprints get on the bag?

Gu Feifei also looked at the CD and the packaging bag with the naked eye first, then put them on the table in front of her, picked up the magnifying glass on the table, and observed them one by one...Holding her breath for a while, she picked up the CD by herself. The packaging bag, with a sullen face and frowning, walked to the instrument panel against the wall, put the packaging bag under the microscope and continued to observe.After a while, she raised her head, her brows were stretched, she hooked her fingers at the technician, and signaled him to come over and look at the microscope with her eyes, the technician hurried over and put her eyes in front of the lens... When she raised her head again, her face was swollen. It turned red all of a sudden, his eyes blinked unnaturally, showing a look of shame...

"There seems to be signs of paper scraps attached to the bag, and there is a small trace that seems to have been lightly drawn with a black water-based pen." The male technician's voice was very soft, obviously knowing that he had missed a very important piece of evidence.

"To be precise, scraps of paper and very fuzzy black lines appeared one centimeter away from where the fingerprint was found, which may mean that they were 'transferred' to the CD packaging bag together with the fingerprint, combined with Geng Hao's professional characteristics , the appearance of fingerprints is very suspicious, isn't it?" Gu Feifei looked directly at the technician, with a hint of the senior teaching the junior in her tone.

"It's because I'm not rigorous in my work, I need to learn more from you." The technician said with a face of shame.

"In fact, our job is not only to find evidence, but also to know how the evidence appeared, so that it will be more convincing. We will work harder in the future!" Gu Feifei smiled and patted the technician's arm as a sign of encouragement. Immediately afterwards, he took out his mobile phone and dialed a number...

While Gu Feifei was visiting the technical department of the detachment, Du Yingxiong and Ai Xiaomei contacted Geng Hao's agent Tian Shuang, and under her guidance, they entered Geng Hao's residence in a high-end residential area in the city center.

The house is a three-bedroom house. The living room has large floor-to-ceiling glass windows, a white ceiling, plain yellow walls, and a full set of white furniture, making the whole living room look particularly grand and elegant. It seems quite in line with Geng Hao's temperament. momentum.

Tian Shuang is in her 40s, good-looking, with light makeup, white shirt, gray narrow skirt, and standard white-collar attire. At first glance, she can be seen as a capable and sleek woman.She enthusiastically invited the two to sit down, skillfully took out two clean cups from the coffee table, and asked the two of them whether they wanted tea or coffee while rolling up their sleeves, as if they were half-hosts.Du Yingxiong waved his hand and pointed to the side sofa for her to sit down and talk; Ai Xiaomei asked where the study was, then got up and walked over.

"You must have made a mistake. How could Geng Hao do such a thing? How is his current situation? I am also a little confused now. Should I hire a lawyer for him?" Before Du Yingxiong could speak, Tian Shuang first Asking questions emotionally.

Du Yingxiong didn't answer the conversation, he pursed his lips and smiled consolingly, and looked up at the row of photo frames with Geng Hao's photos on the opposite TV cabinet, as if he was waiting for the manager to calm down, and he pulled his eyes back after a while , looked at Tian Shuang and asked, "How is Geng Hao's daily work plan and schedule arranged?"

"It's decided by me, especially during the publication of new works, when publicity and various activities are relatively intensive, I usually draw up the schedule a week or two ago." Tian Shuang's tone was much calmer.

"It is said that most of you were in other places to attend various activities a while ago, but you returned to this city on April 4 and May 22 respectively, and you only stayed for two days before going to other places. Why do you have to go to such troubles? Did Geng Hao request it?" Du Yingxiong continued to ask.

"It's not at all. Geng Hao has always done a good job in terms of work cooperation. Unless there is an emergency, he will slightly change the schedule." Tian Shuang shook his head violently and explained, "The two schedules you mentioned I will I have already explained to you the police that one is because there will be a speech and signing activity at the Finance and Economics College of the city the next afternoon; the other is because Geng Hao will attend the celebration of the [-]th anniversary of the founding of a friend’s company the next day.”

"Did he specifically tell you not to disturb him in those few days?" Du Yingxiong asked.

"We have a tacit understanding. The two of us have been running out of town for the past few months. It is easy to come back and have a few days of free time. I also want him to relax completely and have a good rest. Besides, I also have a family and I want to accompany him. Husband and child!" Tian Shuang's explanation was reasonable.

"How is Geng Hao's mental state recently? Has there been any unusual behavior?" Du Yingxiong asked.

"It's pretty good. This year has been in good shape, especially compared to last year." Tian Shuang took a deep breath and explained, "Because last year was in the writing period and it was the first time he tried crime novels. The psychological pressure is very high. I often study the details of the crime tirelessly and figure out the psychology of the criminal day and night. It's over."

"How long have you been working together?" Du Yingxiong asked.

"For almost four years, I asked him to write his first book when I was working as a planning editor for a local publishing company, and then he started to become famous, and it was getting bigger and bigger, and he needed an agent to help him Handle daily trivial work. Besides, I am her sister’s classmate from elementary school to high school, and she entrusts me to take care of him. His sister now lives in Hainan due to work reasons. His parents think the environment and air there are good, so They all followed. Geng Hao lives here alone, and I treat him like my own brother, and I try to take good care of him both at work and in life." Tian Shuang also turned his eyes to the photo frame on the TV cabinet, and his eyes flickered Have a little pity.

"You have been together for so long, do you think he pays special attention to mature women and stockings?" When Du Yingxiong said this, he looked Tian Shuang up and down.

"Nonsense, where is it!" Tian Shuangyu said sullenly, "I am not modest, I am also a pretty mature woman, and I usually wear skirts and stockings more often, but Geng Hao has never been frivolous to me Besides, he had always had a stable young partner before, and he almost got married, but there were some twists and turns in the middle and they broke up."

After communicating with the female agent, Du Yingxiong looked around the room, but saw nothing unusual, and then walked into the study.At this time, Ai Xiaomei was fiddling with a laptop computer with great interest, her eyes were wide open, and there was a sly smile on the corner of her mouth. When she heard the door being pushed open, she quickly suppressed her smile and pretended to be serious. Staring at the computer screen.

"What's the matter, did you find anything?" Seeing Ai Xiaomei's confused look, Du Yingxiong asked suspiciously.

"It's nothing, it's normal. The desktop computer Geng Hao doesn't move much, and he usually uses this laptop computer." Ai Xiaomei pointed at the writing desk and said, "I have checked both computers carefully, and I found nothing suspicious. Most of the files stored in the hard disk are some academic materials and writing materials, and the websites you browse on the Internet are all normal websites. If Geng Hao didn’t hide other computers, it would be too decent, and you stinky men don’t have the dark side at all.”

"Why can't I understand, what is the dark side of us stinky men?" Du Yingxiong asked knowingly.

"Put it down, how many of you stinking men don't have photos of sexy beauties in their computers!" Ai Xiaomei gave Du Yingxiong a deliberate look, and said with disdain.

"You little girl, pretending to understand men, hey, no, don't change the subject..." Du Yingxiong woke up a little bit, "I just came in but I was excited to see your little face, what are you hiding? I, quickly recruit from the truth!"

"Hee hee, you can see it, don't yell, keep your voice down, don't let the outside hear." Ai Xiaomei stuck out her tongue, smiled hippiely, then pressed the mouse a few times, turned the computer screen to Du Yingxiong, and relaxed The voice said, "I found a hidden encrypted file. After cracking it, I saw these photos. Isn't it amazing?"

"Wow! You said there are no pictures of beauties! Hey, this is a photo of Sister Gu...Oh my God, there are photos taken on the beach...Sister Gu is wearing a bikini...There are so many photos of Sister Gu and Geng Hao... ...It seems quite close..." Du Yingxiong couldn't help being stunned, his mouth was half open, and he was stunned for a while before saying, "So they used to be a pair of lovers, I said that Sister Gu was so restless along the way!"

"Let me just say they have an unusual relationship!" Ai Xiaomei said arrogantly with her lips curled up, and then a look of embarrassment appeared on her face, "Should I tell Sister Gu about this photo?"

Hearing Xiaomei's question, Du Yingxiong quickly turned the computer screen back, waved his hands and said, "You should talk about it, but don't say that I have seen it. If Sister Gu knows that I have seen her swimsuit photos, she must pick me up." The skin is not good."

Du Yingxiong and Ai Xiaomei stayed in the study for a while, chatting about the conversation with the female agent just now, and then they came out after tidying up their emotions, and saw the female agent sitting on the sofa with a sad face, hugging After knocking on the laptop, Ai Xiaomei suddenly had a flash of light, walked over and asked, "Is this your computer?"

"That's right, it's mine." Tian Shuang said with a tight nose and frowning, "Geng Hao was arrested for no reason, so many agreed activities can only be pushed and postponed, I have to deal with several calls every day. The partner, tell others that Mr. Geng has a bad cold, or sprained his ankle, or his waist flashed... Anyway, I have used all the reasons I can think of, and I don't know when it will be a head, worry Kill me!"

"Show me your computer." Ai Xiaomei stretched out her hand to Tianshuang.

Just when Ai Xiaomei took over the female manager's computer, Du Yingxiong's cell phone rang, and the caller ID was Gu Feifei. After answering for a while, he asked Tianshuang, "Does Geng Hao have a special signature pen?"

Section [-] Clearing up suspicions
In the afternoon, Gu Feifei notified Zhang Shijie and asked him to call the key members of the case handling team to the conference room to discuss the doubts about Geng Hao. In fact, such wording was just polite, so far it should be said that Geng Hao was basically framed. of.

At the beginning of the meeting, Du Yingxiong took the lead in speaking:

"We met with Geng Hao's female manager. All of Geng Hao's work plans and itinerary were arranged by her. As for the fact that Geng Hao returned to this city two days before the incident, it was because he had to attend a business event. I also confirmed with the organizer of the event that it was indeed agreed earlier.”

"According to the female manager, Geng Hao has been in a particularly good state of mind recently. The popularity and best-selling of the new book surpassed all his previous creations, and the subsequent business activities are also overwhelming. That is to say, in terms of career and financial benefits, Geng Hao Hao is in a period of rapid rise; as for his relationship, there is a small setback. At the end of last year, he broke up with his girlfriend who has been in love for many years, but the other party is a very young girl, who is the same type of victim in the current series of vicious cases in this city. In addition, Geng Hao has never shown any special concern for elderly women and stockings on any occasion, and there are no such materials and photos in his reading materials and computers, and we have not found him browsing on the Internet. There are traces of deformed sex videos and pictures. In short, judging from the current background information about Geng Hao, he does not have the motive for committing the crime.”

"Of course, the crime of psychological deformity, that is, the crime of abnormality, may not require any objective motivation, but for criminals, there must be an stimulating factor. I can find a theory-maybe in the process of creating the new book, because he was too involved in the plot of the crime, he was vague and obsessed, and wanted to experience the thrill of crime described in the book. However, this inference is too much Dramatization, we may see it in literary and film works, but it is very rare in real life, maybe I am ignorant, so I have never heard of this type of case.”

After Du Yingxiong had a long speech, Ai Xiaomei went on to say:

"Based on my colleague Xiao Du's analysis, I would like to add that the fact that the two incidents occurred at a similar time to Geng Hao's return to this city should not be a coincidence, it was deliberately caused by someone. As Xiao Du just introduced, Geng Hao Hao’s daily activities are arranged by his agent, and the agent usually prepares a detailed itinerary one or two weeks in advance and files it on her laptop. I did a technical test on the computer , found that before the incident, the system was secretly hacked. The method is very simple and very targeted. Because of the relationship between various jobs and activities, the agent will publish her email, phone number and QQ number on the Internet , and the intruder just used the chat software as an excuse to secretly implant the Trojan horse program into her computer to steal the required information. Facts have also proved that the intruder did browse the itinerary. I tried to reverse Tracking the intruder's network footprint, the IP address shows that the source is free Wi-Fi in public areas; as for the Trojan horse software, it is easy to buy on some online business platforms, and if you are a bit expert, you can easily buy it on some hacker forums. Downloaded, hard to find the source."

Finally, Gu Feifei will do the important explanation:
"Although I have said a lot before, you should want to hear me explain the issue of fingerprints more, so let's talk about the conclusion first--someone deliberately planted fingerprints on Geng Hao. You can see that there is a book on the table in front of me. Geng Hao's autograph book, as well as the signature pen specially prepared for him by his agent, and the plastic outer packaging bag containing the CD received by the case handling team. My colleagues in the trace inspection department and I re-examined the packaging bag. Next, we found that there were signs of paper dust sticking near the place where the fingerprints were extracted previously, and we also found a mark drawn by a water-based pen that was difficult to observe with the naked eye. Then, through targeted identification and comparison, it was confirmed that the paper dust on the packaging bag The material is exactly the same as the material on the signature page of Geng Hao’s new book, and the traces of the water-based pen on the packaging bag are also completely matched with the water-based ink of Geng Hao’s signature pen. It shows that someone used the self-adhesive method to print Geng Hao The fingerprints left on a signed book were transferred to the CD packaging bag, and due to the unprofessional technique, the paper scraps stuck on the stickers and the signature strokes that were accidentally stuck were transferred to the packaging bag.”

……

The evidence that Geng Hao was framed is quite sufficient, and the results of the meeting can be imagined. Zhang Shijie, the head of the case handling team, officially stated that he was not suspected of committing the crime. Pursue it and release it immediately.But because he was involved in the case after all, he couldn't leave the city for a while.

Without Geng Hao's card in his hand, the vicious series of rape and murder cases in Xizhou City has come to a dead end. Zhang Shijie is also at a loss as to the direction of the next investigation. Is it an imitation of the crime, or is there really a so-called "3" case? The real culprit commits the crime again?These are two extreme directions, and we must judge carefully, otherwise, not to mention wasting police force and time, more citizens may become victims. Therefore, he feels that he needs to use a more professional perspective to identify them, especially when he has just seen them up close. The professionalism, scientificity, and effectiveness of these seemingly inexperienced young people in the support team in handling cases have left them, who think they are veteran criminal investigators, far behind.

So not long after Gu Feifei and the others returned to the hotel to pack their bags, Zhang Shijie rushed over, earnestly asked them to stay, invited them to join the investigation of this case, and said that he would formally submit a support application to the Support Department of the General Administration through the bureau later.As far as Gu Feifei is concerned, if she walks away at this time, she still feels a little regretful, especially because the murderer's motive for framing Geng Hao is still unclear, which makes her worry about Geng Hao's safety, so she said that as long as the support department approves, their side no problem.

Near the evening, Geng Hao suddenly appeared at the hotel where the support team was staying.

At this time, he was dressed in white clothes and trousers, confident, tall and handsome, and his earlier embarrassed appearance had disappeared without a trace.Said that he had already booked a dinner at a certain high-end hotel, firstly, it was to shock him; secondly, he wanted to thank the three people for their kindness of helping each other, so please be sure to appreciate it.

Ai Xiaomei naturally has low immunity when facing Geng Hao, who is more handsome than Han Yin, and looks very happy; Du Yingxiong instinctively keeps a vigilance and excludes Geng Hao and Gu Feifei in view of his previous relationship, He looked uninterested.So both of them looked at Gu Feifei, waiting for her to make up her mind.Gu Feifei agreed very readily this time, but regretted that she would be picked up at the airport later, so she could only let the two little guys represent her.

What Gu Feifei said really displeased Geng Hao. The smile on his face was a little stiff, but soon he showed a good demeanor, and enthusiastically pulled Ai Xiaomei and Du Yingxiong out of the house.It's just that the moment the figure was about to disappear, he turned his head and glanced at Gu Feifei, his eyes revealed a complex emotion - there seemed to be some kind of expectation, but also a little sentimental!
Section [-] Han Yin arrives
Gu Feifei said that going to the airport to pick up people is not an excuse. Given that the support team is about to officially take over the case, the nature of the case is quite bad, and it has an unknown continuity. It is logical and imperative for Han Yin to join at this time.But this time Gu Feifei felt a kind of entanglement in her heart that she had never had before. Of course she was willing to partner with Han Yin in handling the case, and believed that with his character and self-cultivation, he should not mind her past emotional experience. What troubled her was Geng Hao.After these few contacts, she felt that Geng Hao seemed to have no more affection for her, especially when Ai Xiaomei mentioned that he still kept photos of their relationship in his computer, she felt even more disturbed. Do things that embarrass everyone.But the problem is that she can't stay out of everything that is happening in Xizhou City, whether it is public or private, and she can only take one step at a time.

It was past 10 o'clock at night when Han Yin was picked up from the airport to the hotel. After helping him with his room and luggage, Gu Feifei went to her room next door and brought two boxes of instant noodles and a few bags of pickled mustard, and suggested that dinner should be treated like this.Just as they were making water and instant noodles, the half-covered door was pushed open amidst a burst of noise, and Du Yingxiong and Ai Xiaomei walked in with a big bag in their hands.

Ai Xiaomei took a step forward, and said happily: "Look, let me tell you, Teacher Han must be here, you still don't believe it!"

"I didn't expect you to be so fast, I thought you couldn't catch the plane!" Probably because I haven't seen Han Yin for a while, Du Yingxiong looked very excited and raised his voice very loudly.

"It's good luck. I bought a refund ticket for the last flight temporarily, and the journey went smoothly." Han Yin said with a gentle smile.

"Ah, why do you still eat instant noodles? We specially packed a lot of delicious food for you!" Ai Xiaomei walked to the coffee table, put the bag containing the lunch box on it, and took the instant noodles aside on the desk.

"Yes, Geng Hao is quite generous with eating this, and the meal cost several thousand!" Du Yingxiong echoed, and also walked over, putting down the bag in his hand.

"Teacher Geng is really excellent. He is handsome and his conversation is very humorous. Sister Gu, you didn't go. I enjoyed this meal." Ai Xiaomei quickly took out the lunch box and took out chopsticks to part Handed it to Han Yin and Gu Feifei, and said happily.

"I invite you to a meal, and tell two jokes, as if you want to agree with your body." Du Yingxiong continued, teasingly.

"If you want, the uncle is more attractive than you childish ghosts!" Ai Xiaomei gave him a white look, and said angrily.

"Okay, is it over?" Gu Feifei shook her head and said helplessly, "There is no topic that the two of you can't quarrel with!"

"Who is Geng Hao?" Han Yin asked casually as he opened the chopsticks.

"Oh, the dish just now was too salty, I'll go back to my room and drink some water."

"I'm going back to the house too. I'm exhausted and want to go to the bathroom."

Han Yin's sudden question stunned the two little guys, and the warm atmosphere in the room instantly cooled down. Both of them looked at Gu Feifei, and then turned their heads to look at each other, and they understood seven or eight points in their hearts— —Sister Gu has not mentioned Geng Hao to Mr. Han until now.This kind of outsider can't just follow along and meddle. The two found their own excuses and ran away in a hurry.

Han Yin didn't expect that what he said casually would scare the two little guys away at once, and he was very puzzled, so he looked at Gu Feifei wonderingly.Gu Feifei had a calm face. She didn't want to hide anything at first, but she just felt that she couldn't say a word or two clearly, so she didn't mention it on the phone or on the way from the airport.At this time, facing Han Yin's suspicious eyes, she pursed her lips and smiled calmly, raised her chin at the coffee table, and said, "Let's talk while eating..."

During a meal, Gu Feifei will receive a call from Zhang Shijie late at night until the support team officially takes over the series of rape and murder cases. She will explain everything to Han Yin and openly explain the relationship between her and Geng Hao.As she thought, Han Yin always had his iconic smile on his face, and didn't say much. After listening to her story intently, he fell into a moment of thought.Gu Feifei didn't bother him in a reasonable way, and silently cleaned up the tea table, and thoughtfully filled a cup of hot water with a paper cup and put it in front of him, then sat down and waited patiently for him to break the silence.

"This case is indeed quite complicated. First and foremost, we have to figure out whether the current case is an imitation or a continuation of the series of crimes committed in the early years. If it is the latter, it will be too difficult to handle. We also have to clarify why the wrong person was arrested back then, and the real murderer What kind of background is there, and the stimulating incentives and psychological motivations for coming back to commit crimes, etc." Han Yin focused on handling the case as soon as he opened his mouth. He smacked his lips, pondered for a while and said, "So, tomorrow let The case handling team handed over all the current and early case file materials to us. The hero and I will study it in depth, and maybe go to the scene to do a simulation. You and Xiaomei go to Geng Hao to have a good chat, and ask him to help you think about the murderer There is a way to get his signed book, and see if we can find a breakthrough from that.”

"Okay, let's do it like this." Gu Feifei nodded vigorously twice and said, her expression was extremely brisk. Although she knew that Han Yin would not be too entangled in her and Geng Hao's affairs, she did not expect him to say nothing , My heart is even more gratified and grateful!
The next morning, Gu Feifei and Ai Xiaomei knocked on the door of Geng Hao's house.Seeing the two of them, Geng Hao was naturally overjoyed, and made tea and water, cut fruit plate, and even served the small cake he baked by himself.Seeing that he was quite enthusiastic, Gu Feifei was too embarrassed to stop him, so she could only let him work.

"You can't leave the city during this time, it should delay a lot of work, right?" When Geng Hao sat down, Gu Feifei greeted with concern. After all, they had too many good memories, and now the suspicion on Geng Hao is also Cleaned up, there is no need to make the atmosphere too stiff.

"It's okay, I've been tossing around the world for nearly half a year, and I'm tired too, so I just need to take a break and give Sister Tian a vacation." Geng Hao shook his head vigorously, then spread his hands, and urged in a brisk tone, "Quick, quick, Try the cake, it was baked just this morning, it looks like it was made just for the two of you."

"Wow, it tastes so good, I didn't expect you to have this skill!" Ai Xiaomei took a small bite and said exaggeratedly.

"Small, I don't just do this." Geng Hao gave Gu Feifei a meaningful look, "If you don't believe me, you can ask your boss, and I will show you a second hand when I have a chance. Chinese and Western food are fine, and I guarantee it's better than those served in big restaurants outside. It's decent."

Geng Hao is right about this point. When they were abroad, he was almost in charge of the food for the two of them. At that time, he would often design some special desserts in different ways to make people happy.Thinking about it carefully, Geng Hao is indeed a good man.Looking at the cake in her hand, for a moment, Gu Feifei felt a burst of emotion in her heart, and her gaze froze on Geng Hao's face. Unexpectedly, Geng Hao, who was chatting and laughing with Ai Xiaomei, also looked back, so she quickly put Staggered his eyes, coughed twice, and said while hiding his embarrassment: "Let's get down to business. It is basically confirmed that the person who framed you is the murderer of the two rapes and murders. He obtained your fingerprints through the new book you signed. We would like to know what channels are usually used to get your signed book."

"There are quite a lot of ways, mainly through online shopping on e-commerce platforms, and I will also mail dozens of copies to my friends and some loyal readers who have supported me for many years. Of course, the most direct one is the on-site signing event." Geng Hao pondered slightly After a while, he continued, "I've thought about this myself. There are too many intermediate links in the first two methods. It is difficult to guarantee that the fingerprints left on the book are my fingerprints. If I were the one who framed it, I would choose the third method." , he could really observe the position of my fingers when I signed my signature at the scene. Also, when Zhang Shijie released me, he probably talked about the fingerprints, from the fingerprints on the signature book in the hands of the framer Judging from the location, it is also in line with my signing habits when signing sales on the spot.” Geng Hao stopped talking, got up and walked into the study, and when he came back, he had an extra signature pen and his new book in his hand. He demonstrated that , "At the event site, there are many book fans. In order to improve efficiency, Sister Tian and a staff member will stand on the left and right sides of me. One will help me pick up the reader's book and turn it to the signature page, and the other will be responsible for handing back the book I signed. For readers. Because I am left-handed, I usually used my right index finger or middle finger to rest on the signature page, and then signed my name with my left hand next to each other. Transferred to the bag as well."

"The analysis makes sense. It is true that what we extracted was the fingerprint of your right middle finger." Ai Xiaomei continued, and asked in a targeted manner, "How many signings have you held locally?"

"There should be five." Geng Hao raised his head and thought for a while and said, "There are four special sessions for local colleges and universities. Only about a month and a half ago—it should be April 4th. The event at the Xinhua Bookstore was completely public."

"Then start from Xinhua Bookstore!" Gu Feifei said firmly.

"Shall I go with you?" Geng Hao knew in his heart that what Gu Feifei said was actually agreeing with his analysis, and he couldn't help feeling excited, so he recommended himself, "I know the leaders over there well, so it's easy for you to check."

"Let Teacher Geng go, we can save a lot of tongue!" Ai Xiaomei hurriedly assisted Gu Feifei.

"Okay." Gu Feifei twitched the corner of her mouth, and nodded with a half-smile. She could see that Xiaomei was completely fascinated by Geng Hao.

Before leaving Geng Hao's house, Gu Feifei asked him to call his agent first to ask if she had noticed any suspicious-looking people on the day of the event, but the agent thought for a long time on the phone but couldn't come up with anything. Then I got into Geng Hao's car and arrived at Xinhua Bookstore in more than 20 minutes.

Geng Hao brought the two of them to a corner of the lobby, and said that the signing booth for the day's event was set up there. Looking around, they didn't see any surveillance cameras. Gu Feifei and Ai Xiaomei were a little disappointed.Then Geng Hao found a few bookstore staff who participated in the activity, but after asking them one by one, they didn't find out anything.Then the three of them went to the literature department on the second floor. All the books for the day's activities were sold from the store on this floor. Unfortunately, the guides and cashiers have to face many customers every day, and they can't recall the scene of that day after a long time .Fortunately, Ai Xiaomei noticed that there was a surveillance system above the cash register, so there was a glimmer of hope.

Afterwards, Geng Hao took the two of them to meet with the leader of the bookstore. Since he was familiar with Geng Hao, and Gu Feifei's trip was part of the police's normal case handling, the bookstore should actively cooperate, so the leader led the three of them there without saying a word. In the security monitoring room, let Ai Xiaomei use a USB flash drive to copy all the surveillance videos on the day of the event...

The small conference room of the criminal police detachment has been officially converted into the support team office area. There is a white writing board near the door with several photos of the victim pasted on it. The conference table that can seat more than a dozen people is almost full of case files and documents. Han Yin and Du Yingxiong, who were sitting opposite each other, were concentrating on reading the relevant documents——

……

Han Yin and Du Yingxiong spent almost the whole morning reading through the dossiers and materials of the two series of cases, and had a certain understanding of the facts and details of the cases. The fundamental link, all inferences and criminal psychology profiles are derived from this.

The two of them kept their heads buried in the files, and when they suddenly stopped, they realized that their eyes were extremely dry.Han Yin took off the glasses on the bridge of his nose with one hand, and gently rubbed his eyes with the back of the other hand.Du Yingxiong stood up, stretched vigorously, stretched his legs and feet, picked up Yu Zuuoguo's death certificate from the table, held it up to his eyes, glanced at it repeatedly, and threw it back on the table, sarcastically Said: "There is no proof of death. Everyone is dead. Geng Hao can write whatever he wants to write? A writer who has read a few criminal investigation reference books really considers himself an expert? Why don't we go to him now and beat him?"

Han Yin thought about it for a while, pursed his lips and smiled and said, "Don't worry, let Team Zhang take us to the scene first."

As soon as the words were spoken here, the door of the meeting room was gently pushed open. A young policewoman stretched half her body and said, "Two leaders, Captain Zhang asked me to take you to the cafeteria for dinner."

"Okay, here we come." Han Yin turned to respond to the policewoman, and then turned to greet Du Yingxiong, "Let's eat first."

Following the policewoman to the cafeteria, the two immediately saw Gu Feifei, Ai Xiaomei, Geng Hao and Zhang Shijie sitting around a dining table.Ai Xiaomei and Zhang Shijie waved at them vigorously, and pointed to the tray on the dining table, indicating that the meal was ready for them, and they walked straight over.

This was the first time that Han Yin met Geng Hao face to face. Before Gu Feifei could say anything, Han Yin stretched out his hand to introduce himself: "Hello, I am Han Yin."

"Geng Hao." Geng Hao hurriedly got up from the chair and shook hands with Han Yin, "I have known you for a long time, and I often see your achievements in newspapers and TV. The protagonist in my novel has your shadow in many places."

"My pleasure."

Han Yin responded politely, sat down, and then fell silent.The rest of the people also pretended to concentrate on eating, only the sound of chopsticks touching on the table, and the atmosphere began to become delicate.Of course, the most embarrassing one is Gu Feifei, eating at the same table with her ex and current boyfriend, even if she has a clear conscience, she still has a guilty conscience.She began to get annoyed at Ai Xiaomei's insistence on dragging Geng Hao over for lunch, so she couldn't help kicking her hard under the table.

Unprepared, Ai Xiaomei yelled in half pain and half fright, and the diners around all looked over in an instant, the scene was really embarrassing.But she was quite clever, grinning her teeth and rubbing her legs, she pretended to remember just now and said, "By the way, Teacher Han, Sister Gu and I have made progress."

"Geng Hao held a book signing event at Xinhua Bookstore about a month ago. He suspected that the murderer got the signed book with his fingerprints through that event. We went to the bookstore and locked down a suspect through surveillance video at the cash register. People, screenshots have been sent to all sub-bureaus and police stations." Gu Feifei took the opportunity to continue.

"Teacher Geng helped a lot!" Ai Xiaomei smiled flatteringly at Geng Hao, took out the tablet from her backpack, called up the relevant video and handed it to Han Yin, and said, "Here, this is the person, in his 40s, wearing It's rather sloppy, and it doesn't look like a loyal fan, and I bought two new books by Mr. Geng at once, which is very abrupt."

Han Yin let out a "hmm", before watching carefully, Zhang Shijie's mobile phone on the dining table rang, and after he took it, he was overjoyed: "I found it, the person in the video was found!"

"So fast?" Du Yingxiong asked in surprise.

"All the police officers below thought the photo of this kid looked familiar. He seemed to be a migrant worker who often took jobs near the free market in his area. I just went to check it out. Really, he has been brought to the office." Zhang Shijie explained.

Section [-] Long way to go
Police station, interrogation room.

After regular interrogation of name, age, occupation, place of origin, current residence, etc., Gu Feifei and Ai Xiaomei learned that the honest-looking man sitting across from him was called Fang Damin, a native of other provinces, who usually made a living as a mason at odd jobs...

"Is this you who bought the book?" Ai Xiaomei raised the freeze-frame picture on the tablet computer screen to Fang Damin's eyes and asked.

"Yes, yes, it's me." Fang Damin said hastily.

"Do you like reading?" Ai Xiaomei asked with her eyes wide open.

"I don't understand. I bought the book for someone else." Fang Damin shook his head and said.

"Who did you buy it for?" Ai Xiaomei followed up.

"I don't know, I really don't know." Fang Damin shook his head and hands, anxious to get rid of himself, "I just bought two books for someone, and I have nothing to do with what bad things he did!"

"Don't panic, we trust you, you can leave after explaining clearly the process of buying books entrusted by someone." Gu Feifei comforted her kindly, she could see that Fang Damin was just being used.

"Okay, let me think about it." Fang Damin nodded naively, blinked his small eyes quickly, recalled for a while, and said, "It was about 4 o'clock in the evening on the 6th of last month. I usually went back early at that time, but I didn't I was doing some work, so I wanted to stay longer. Then a man came up to me and said he would give me some work. He gave me 200 yuan and a small cloth bag, and asked me to arrive at 1 pm the next day Xinhua Bookstore bought two books for him, and then went to the lobby on the first floor to wait in line for the writer to sign the book. He told me the title of the book and the name of the writer, and told me where the bookstore was and how Take the car and say that you will come to me to pick up the books at that time the next day at dusk, and then give me another 200 yuan."

"How do you remember the days so clearly?" Ai Xiaomi asked questioningly.

"You can earn so much money without exerting any effort, I will definitely remember it!" Fang Damin's voice was a little high, trying to prove that he was not lying.

"Does he have anything special to say?" Gu Feifei asked.

"Yes, let me carefully observe the writer's posture when signing, especially where his hands are touching. After the bookmark is finished, I can't fumble around. I have to put it directly in the cloth pocket he gave." Fang Damin said.

"What does that person look like?" Ai Xiaomei asked.

"How can you tell what he looks like!" Fang Damin exclaimed, "It was quite cold at that time, and he was wearing a long black padded coat, a wool hat, a big mask, and wool gloves, anyway. Cover it tightly."

"What accent do you speak, and what are your physical characteristics?" Gu Feifei asked again.

"The accent should be from a local, the voice is a bit hoarse, and the figure..." Fang Damin blinked his eyes vigorously, thought for a while and said, "He is quite tall, at least 1.8 meters in height, and he is a bit hunchbacked. Oh, yes, walk A little bit of a limp, one up and one down."

"Xinle Community" is located in the northwest of the urban area. It was built in 1997. By the time of the "March 2007" incident in 3, it had developed into five sub-districts, and has now formed eight sub-districts with an area of ​​19 square kilometers. It is the largest residential community in Xizhou City.Because it is located on the fringe of the city and close to the airport area, housing prices are at the lowest level among commercial housing in the entire urban area. The population composition is complex, mainly low-income groups, infrastructure facilities are backward, security is loose, and it is a crime-prone area.

The three cases in the "March 3" case in the early years were respectively distributed in Xinle District 19, Xinle District 2, and Xinle District 4.Due to the age of the house, the house has already moved into new residents, so it is of little value to inspect the house, and it is also to avoid people's taboo, so Han Yin pays more attention to the surrounding geographical environment.In general: The three crime scenes are farther apart than expected, and the surrounding environment is not closed. One of the unit buildings is close to the market, and the other is facing the street, and the bus station is downstairs, only the second case in the middle The scene of the case is considered to be deep in the buildings.The murderer has repeatedly committed crimes successfully without attracting anyone's attention. He should be very familiar with the entire community, which matches Yu Zuuoguo's background information.

The current two cases are only a few blocks away from the scene, and they both happened in Xinle District 2.Like the previous cases, there were no anti-theft doors installed at the entrances and exits of the corridors at the scene of the crime, which was beneficial for the murderer to track the target. When it came to the issue of anti-theft doors, Zhang Shijie was very angry. Anti-theft doors are uniformly installed at crossings, but the developer has been ignoring them on the grounds of capital turnover, otherwise the murderer would not be so easy to track the target to the house.As for the surrounding environment, it is relatively quiet and the risk of committing crimes is relatively small.Of course, this does not explain anything, and it is also possible that the murderer has a cautious personality, or it may be related to the growing population of aging people in the residential community, making it easier for the murderer to hunt for his desired target.

The buildings in the area where the crime occurred are all small-sized apartments, with three households on one elevator, with north-south orientation on both sides, and double south-facing households in the middle. In the "4" case, the house numbers at the scene of the two cases were Room 23 and Room 201, that is to say, they were both north-south apartment types.The first crime scene was in the living room, some distance from the door, indicating that the victim let the murderer into the house on his own initiative, so could it be an acquaintance who committed the crime?Han Yin thinks it is unlikely that the two victims were killed shortly after going home, which may mean that they were locked and followed by the murderer on the way home.

After coming out of the scene, the three of them stood on the side of the street and had a brief discussion. Han Yin suggested: "As far as the '4' case is concerned, there is a certain degree of uncertainty in committing random crimes, and the murderer may not have missed. The three of us may as well Split up and go door-to-door in the residential buildings between the two crime scenes, and maybe find potential witnesses."

"Oh, the relevant investigation, especially for the residents of the unit building where the victim lived, our task force has conducted detailed interrogation before, and no one saw the victim in contact with suspicious persons on the day of the incident, nor did we find any suspicious traces wandering around the victim's house " Zhang Shijie said otherwise, thinking that Han Yin's move was a waste of time.

"You misunderstood, of course I believe in the investigation work of our special case team," Han Yin insisted on his own thinking with a neither humble nor overbearing attitude, "I think some residents may not realize that they have seen the murderer at all."

……

The result was just as Han Yin thought.

When it was just dark, an old lady surnamed Wang who lived in Building 2, Xinle District 93, was inspired by Du Yingxiong’s patience, and remembered that on the day Li Fang was killed, at around 9:[-] in the morning, she once talked to a man .At that time, she had just returned from a walk when she heard someone knocking on the door, claiming that she was from the gas company, and was appointed by the company to come to the residents to repair the pipeline equipment and replace the gas pipes for free.At that time, Aunt Wang's wife was also at home, and she casually asked her husband if they needed to change at home. When she decided to change it later, there was no one outside the door.The old couple felt that they might encounter a liar, so they didn't care much, and the investigators forgot to mention it when they cross-examined them.

The first scene of the "4" case was located in Building No. 23, which is only two buildings away from Aunt Wang's house. The conversation happened an hour before the incident. The person who heard that Aunt Wang was not at home alone disappeared quietly. The gas repairman was very suspicious, and even Zhang Shijie had to admit that he might be the murderer—he failed to catch Aunt Wang that day, and on the way he targeted Li Fang, who had just finished dancing in the square and was about to go home. Through tailgating, find out where she lives, and use the same excuse to lure her to open the door, and kill her when she finds that there is no one else in the house.In addition, Aunt Wang also wore a pair of flesh-colored stockings when she took a walk that day, which made the above speculation seem more credible.

So far, the way the murderer of the "4" case chose his target and the means of entering the house are basically clear. Unfortunately, Aunt Wang only saw through the peephole on her door that day that the knocker was a man wearing a hat, so she couldn't describe it further. Show a specific appearance.Of course, no one would believe that the man was really a gas repairman.

After seeing the crime scene, Han Yin felt that it was time to talk to Geng Hao, so he asked Du Yingxiong to call to make an appointment. Geng Hao was very straightforward and said that he would meet in a coffee shop in half an hour.Zhang Shijie drove the two to the agreed place, but he was too lazy to entertain Geng Hao, so he went back to the team first.This is also in Han Yin's arms. If he is present, it is estimated that Geng Hao will not be able to say some things.

The two walked into the store, and found a quiet seat under the guidance of the receptionist. Not long after, Geng Hao also arrived, exchanged a few words with each other, ordered a cup of coffee, and then began to get down to business.

"The purpose of asking you to come out is very simple. I want to hear your opinion on the '3' case." Han Yin looked at Geng Hao and asked gently.

"About that case, everything I want to say is written in my book." Geng Hao lowered his head and said slowly stirring coffee with his left hand.

"Sorry, the time is too short, I haven't had time to read the masterpiece, but I probably heard them mention it, how do you think the murderer is someone else?" Han Yin asked along the way.

"This is the point of your appointment with me." Geng Hao stopped stirring, raised his head and snorted, took a sip of coffee, and said, "From the perspective of me as a creator, '3 The biggest highlight of the 19' case is actually Yu Zuuoguo, the murderer. He was congenitally ill, his family life was unfortunate, he grew up in poverty and suffering from illness, and it was difficult to suppress his sexual instinct in adolescence, which made him transform into a cruel and perverted serial killer. Later, he voluntarily surrendered, but died unexpectedly in a mental hospital. This series of twists and turns and bizarre life changes are full of drama and plasticity, so at first I read a series of background checks about him on the Internet and newspapers, and I was particularly anxious Understand his growth experience and even his whole life. I went to his home in Xinle Community, but the house was already empty. His father Yu Deshui left their mother and son in his early years and disappeared. His mother was already ill when he died. Terminally ill, he passed away not long after. He had no other relatives in the local area, so I had to interview the mental hospital where he lived and his attorney at the time, trying to dig out some details of his life as much as possible. In the interview, I accidentally came from The lawyer learned that his father actually showed up later, so I had to contact Yu Deshui by phone through the lawyer, and after meeting, I became even more puzzled about Zuo Guo's death."

Geng Hao took a sip of coffee, breathed a sigh of relief, and continued: "Yu Deshui got along well after leaving Xizhou, opened a construction company, and got married again, but his wife still couldn't conceive a child. He missed his son even more. In 2008, when he returned to Xizhou City, he found out that his wife was terminally ill and his son was imprisoned in a mental hospital for murder. He blamed himself very much and regretted that he had not fulfilled his responsibility as a father, so he let Yu Zuoguo It has become what it is today. He really wants to see his son, but because the police stipulated that the suspect can only meet with a lawyer during the investigation, he can only entrust a lawyer to take a message to express his concern and apology. To show his sincerity, he also specially asked The lawyer told his son his cell phone number, but he didn't expect that the father and son still didn't see each other. One morning a few days later, Yu Deshui suddenly received a call from his son. On the phone, Yu Zuuoguo was silent for a while, and soon he couldn't wait He claimed that he had not actually killed anyone, and Yu Deshui was holding an important meeting in the company at that time, so he did not allow him to explain further, but said that he would take the lawyer to the hospital in the afternoon, and we would talk about it in detail when we met, but at noon that day, Yu Deshui Zuo Guo is dead."

Geng Hao became more emotional, and said: "Isn't it doubtful that someone wanted to retract his confession in the morning, but he died at noon? I discussed this issue with Zhang Shijie in private, but he always put on a disdainful look and claimed There were no problems with the procedures and evidence they handled the case at that time. Later, I found out from my acquaintances at the Municipal Bureau that Zhang Shijie and the head of the '3' case handling team, the retired old director, were both involved in the investigation of the '19' case. The 3' case got a chance to be promoted because of its outstanding performance, so I think there is definitely a conspiracy in it."

"If your conclusion is correct, then why do you think Yu Zuuoguo should be a scapegoat?" After patiently listening to Geng Hao's lengthy narration, Du Yingxiong said immediately.

"Maybe he is too lonely, or maybe he is being used by others. After all, I am not an expert like you. It is really hard to say this question." Geng Hao said hesitantly.

"You can't even explain clearly, and you're still scribbling in the book?" I didn't have a good impression at first, but seeing Geng Hao's sanctimonious attitude, Du Yingxiong couldn't hold back his anger.

Seeing that his voice was getting louder, Han Yin quickly winked to stop him from talking, and then smoothed things over and asked, "Do you have Yu Deshui's contact information?"

"Yes, wait a minute..." Of course Geng Hao was unwilling to be choked, and gave Du Yingxiong a hard look, before opening the wallet he carried with him, "Here, this is his business card."

The meeting with Geng Hao ended in unhappiness, Du Yingxiong was still furious, sitting in the taxi kept telling Geng Hao that he was nothing, Han Yin didn't bother to care about him at this time, turned his head to look at the night slowly flashing outside the window, Silently pieced together the messy details of the case in his head.For him, this kind of action is like playing a jigsaw puzzle. Only when the pieces are put in the right position can the original appearance of the picture be revealed.Of course, first of all, the number of pieces must be complete, and Han Yin now has one piece missing, so he needs to ask Zhang Shijie for it.

The door of Zhang Shijie's office was half open, as if he had deliberately left it in anticipation that they would come, but Han Yin knocked twice politely before walking in with Du Yingxiong.Seeing the two of them, Zhang Shijie put down the documents in his hands, pointed to the two lunch boxes with lids on the desk in front of him, and greeted with concern: "I'm so busy now, don't I have time to eat? Steamed buns in the cafeteria at night." , specially reserved for you two."

"That's great, I've been hungry for a long time!" Du Yingxiong sat down opposite Zhang Shijie, opened the lunch box, ignored the chopsticks, reached out and grabbed a big bun, stuffed it into his mouth, and said while chewing, "It's still hot. Yes, by the way, how did you know we were coming?"

"Hehe, if you don't look for me, I will look for you too." Zhang Shijie smiled like a trickster, and made eye contact with Han Yin who had just sat down. There are records, but some things are better explained face to face.He got up and poured two glasses of water in front of the two, sat back on the chair, and said earnestly: "I know that what you are most interested in now is not the current case, but the suspects in the '3' case." Yu Zuuoguo, for this suspect who voluntarily surrendered, the bureau has done a comprehensive and in-depth background investigation. When he was young, Yu Zuuoguo had a good personality, smart and sensible, and his IQ was even higher than that of children of the same age. Some signs, his grades in school were quite good at first, but as his epilepsy occurred in public from time to time, he was gradually regarded as an alternative by his classmates, and he had very little interaction with teachers and classmates. Later, due to family difficulties, he could not continue to receive medical treatment , his cognitive ability was greatly affected, and his academic performance deteriorated in the later period, and his personality gradually became withdrawn and autistic. After he entered junior high school, it became more and more difficult to keep up with his studies. Violent and anti-social tendencies appeared, so serious that he lit his textbooks with a lighter during recess, which almost caused a serious fire, so he was persuaded to leave by the school and hastily ended his student career."

"After dropping out of school, because his mother was too busy making a living, Yu Zuuoguo wandered around the community like a wild horse all day long, collecting scraps and selling them to earn pocket money, and then went to Internet cafes to squander them. I don't know if he was affected by Internet obscenity Influenced by pictures, or for other reasons, he became crazy about women’s stockings during that period, especially those worn by women. Later, when we searched his home, we found more than 200 pairs of stockings under his bed, most of which were picked up , some were stolen from the drying racks on other people's balconies, and some were obtained through burglary. According to his account, he found the method of prying the door and unlocking it from the Internet, and bought related tools on the street stall to make it. A simple lock pick, it only takes two to three minutes to open the door of a house, and it is difficult for ordinary people to notice that the door lock has been tampered with. In addition, he never rummages after entering the house, and only targets silk stockings, so if he did not take the initiative to confess that he had Many burglaries have occurred, and the burglars would never have noticed that the burglars had broken into their homes. Of course, during the investigation, we also learned that some victims were aware of it, but because they lost women's underwear such as silk stockings Items, ashamed to speak and not reported."

"After Yu Zuuoguo came to the case, he confessed a series of crime plots, which are basically consistent with the case. He can accurately point out the location of all crime scenes, and he can roughly tell the time when the crime was committed. The team did not notice much—he said that during the second crime, he accidentally touched the bedside table, and he remembered that a piece of lipstick fell on the ground, and he kicked it under the bedside table at random. Checked by the inspection department, there really is such a lipstick."

"Did public opinion and the media pay more attention to the case back then?" Han Yin interjected.

A wry smile appeared on Zhang Shijie's face: "Needless to say, that case is the worst case that has occurred in this city since the founding of New China. After the news was exposed, it quickly became a hot topic among the people on the streets, especially when the case happened. In the Xinle community in the region, all kinds of rumors are rampant. Not to mention the media, it was almost all the headlines during that time, especially in the era of the all-media economy, some print media and Internet media do not care about anything in order to survive and expand their influence It's a matter of principle, and he didn't listen to the greetings, just like crazy, exhausting all means to dig out the inside story from the victim's family members and even acquaintances in the bureau, and even nicknamed the murderer "silk stocking killer". Also, Although Weibo and WeChat did not exist at that time, many netizens used blogs and forums to discuss the case enthusiastically. It can be said that the degree of attention and transparency of the case is indeed unprecedented, and it also increased the pressure on the bureau to handle the case.” Zhang Shijie paused , looked at Han Yin meaningfully, and then said: "I understand what you mean by your question. In fact, the bureau is also worried that he is being used by others, so every interrogation is videotaped, and experts are invited to do a polygraph test. As a result, no signs of lying were found in him, the key point is that he has always been a loner, with very little social interaction, and there is no motive for 'taking the blame' at all."

"You introduced it very specifically, but these are not what we are most interested in." Du Yingxiong also made a fool of himself and smiled slyly.

"Little comrades, don't be impatient. I think I should tell you as much as possible about what I have mastered. I hope it will help you make a more objective judgment from a professional perspective." Zhang Shijie raised his hand and nodded Du Yingxiong, jokingly One sentence continued, "After Yu Zuuoguo surrendered, due to frequent epileptic seizures, the detention center was worried about accidents, so during the investigation and evidence collection period, he was temporarily imprisoned in a mental hospital designated by the Municipal Bureau, and his death was completely accidental. At noon on the day of the incident, he went to the toilet while eating in the cafeteria, but suddenly fell ill and fell, and the back of his head hit the ceramic outer edge of the urinal. Although he was treated promptly, he died of his injuries. After careful investigation, there were two doctors in the toilet at the time. The accident described by the two coincided with the conclusion of the technical survey. From the surveillance video outside the toilet, the two entered the toilet before Yu Zuokuo. Apart from the medical relationship, he does not have any other contact or interest relationship with Yu Zuuoguo on a daily basis, and the possibility of the two planning accidents can be basically ruled out. As for his father Yu Deshui's questioning, the bureau has also seriously considered it. Guoguo did sneak into the doctor's office to call Yu Deshui that morning when a patient went mad and caused chaos in the hospital. There is a lot of uncertainty, even if he really said that he didn't kill anyone, it doesn't mean what he said is the truth. What's more, the investigation can't be carried out at all if the person is dead, so there is absolutely no 'fraud' and 'conspiracy' On the question of '!"

While talking, Zhang Shijie suddenly put on a serious expression, and said solemnly: "You have also read the file, but in the end the case was not really closed, so I must solemnly declare: the public opinion in the society, the common people The rumors among them, including some media's one-sided reports, are actually a fundamental misunderstanding of the whole case. They all think that Yu Zuuoguo is the murderer in their consciousness, and even take it for granted that he committed suicide in fear of crime. His death ended. But in fact, our police have never officially announced the identification of Yu Zuo as the murderer of the '3' series of rape and homicide cases. The reason we policemen understand is that apart from confessions, the evidence only supports Yu Zuo Zuo Guo went to the scene of the last two cases, and there is nothing else to prove. Also, the gloves he said he wore when he committed the crimes were thrown into the septic tank in the community, and we have not recovered them. That is to say, Until his accidental death, the investigation and evidence collection work was still going on, of course, it ended without a problem in the end, so theoretically speaking, the case is still pending.”

"Since you all know that the outside rumors are wrong, why don't you clarify them?" Du Yingxiong asked puzzled.

Zhang Shijie twitched the corner of his mouth slightly, frowned and pondered for a while, and said: "Although the overall evidence is insufficient, most of the issues of Yu Zuuoguo are still quite clear. Unless you are a party to the case, it is difficult to do so. Besides, speaking It is not much evidence. From Zuo Guo’s surrender to his accidental death, the investigation and evidence collection lasted for nearly 10 months. During that time, similar cases did not happen again, even until this year. Doesn't this explain the problem? To be honest, most people in the bureau, including me, have long tacitly tacitly agreed that Yu Zuoguo may be the murderer of the 'March 3' case. An attitude of neither agreeing nor denying."

Section [-]: Rainy Night Judgment
After eating and drinking enough, Han Yin and Du Yingxiong returned to the small meeting room after talking with Team Zhang.At this time, the two female generals were flipping through the files inside, and the four of them shared the information they had with each other. Then Han Yin asked the three of them to go back to rest first, intending to sort out the intricate relationship between the previous and the following cases overnight, but everyone asked Han Yin didn't insist on staying, maybe brainstorming can spark some sparks.

At present, whether it is Geng Hao's doubts or Zhang team's explanations, they are all one-sided words that only represent their respective positions.Han Yin asked Ai Xiaomei to find out the interrogation video and play it, so that everyone could listen to what Yu Zuuoguo himself had to say.

Soon, on the projection screen in the conference room, a picture of Zuo Guo being interrogated for the first time was displayed...

"How many times were there total murders?" asked the interrogator.

"Three times." Yu Zuuoguo replied.

"Time and place?" the interrogator asked.

“3月19号,欣乐2区85号楼3单元401;4月25号……”于作国答。

"Is it these three people?" The interrogator showed the victim's on-site certificates one by one.

"Yes." Yu Zuuoguo glanced down and quickly confirmed.

"Have you known them before?" the interrogator asked.

"I don't know." Yu Zuuoguo replied.

"They didn't know you, why did they let you in?" the interrogator asked.

"I usually knock on the door first, and if no one answers, I pick the lock and go in to steal something. If someone answers the door at home, I use the excuse that I collect waste at a high price." Yu Zuuoguo replied.

"Steal what?" the interrogator asked.

"Silk...silk stockings." Yu Zuuoguo stammered slightly.

"Just stockings?" the interrogator asked.

"Yes, I like... I like to collect stockings worn by women." Yu Zuuoguo continued to hesitate.

"How many times has it been stolen?" asked the interrogator.

"That's too much, I can't remember!" Yu Zuuoguo replied.

"Think slowly, time, place, and talk as much as you can think of," the interrogator said.

"Well, the time is relatively close to this year's May Day holiday. It was just across the door from my house. I heard that their family was traveling abroad, so I broke the door and went in and stole his woman's stockings; before that, there would be early March. , seems to be the second floor of a house in District 3..." Yu Zuuoguo replied.

"Since it's just to steal stockings, why do you want to kill someone?" the interrogator asked.

"The three of them were all wearing long silk stockings at that time. I was very impulsive and wanted to buy them from them. They refused, so I raped them as soon as their brains became hot, and strangled them to death again for fear of revealing their secrets!" Yu Zuuoguo replied.

"Tell me about the process in detail," the interrogator said.

"It's almost the same. First, they are beaten until they are bruised and swollen, and they are dizzy. Then they strip off their clothes and then 'dry' them. After they are done, they are strangled to death with silk stockings, and then they are tied with a beautiful bow." Yu Zuuoguo replied.

"Are you sure they were all wearing stockings, and you strangled them to death?" the interrogator asked.

"Of course, oh, one was strangled with a pajama belt." Yu Zuuoguo replied.

"Which one?"

"The first... the first one." Yu Zuuoguo replied.

"You can see clearly, there are no stockings on this foot." The interrogator pointed to the scene photo of the first victim and said.

"Oh... I took her stockings away." Yu Zuuoguo replied hesitantly.

"Where did it go?" asked the interrogator.

"That... burned it. It was the first time I killed someone. I was very scared afterwards and didn't dare to keep it." Yu Zuuoguo replied slowly.

"Why didn't you take the stockings of the two people behind?" the interrogator asked.

"I think it's more exciting to tie stockings around their necks." Yu Zuuoguo answered very simply this time.

"Why do you tie the pajama belt and stockings into a bow?" the interrogator asked.

"It's beautiful, the stockings are tied like that, it feels like they are a gift for me." Yu Zuuoguo replied.

"How did you tie the bow?" the interrogator asked.

"It's nothing, I saw it on the Internet." Yu Zuuoguo replied.

"Why did you break open the door for the third murder?" the interrogator asked.

"I knocked first. Maybe she didn't hear it when she was going to the toilet or taking a nap. I thought no one was home so I picked the lock, only to find someone when I went in." Yu Zuuoguo replied.

"How did you clean up after the first two rapes?" the interrogator asked.

"Just shoot that thing on the newspaper and take it away." Yu Zuuoguo replied.

"Why did you leave semen and fingerprints for the last time?" the interrogator asked.

"I was very excited that day, and finally fell ill again. When I woke up, my whole body was a little bit fragmented, and I ran away in a daze." Yu Zuuoguo replied.

"Why do you want to surrender yourself?" the interrogator asked.

"I heard that your police are going to test the fingerprints and D's of all the men in our community one by one. I guess you can't avoid it this time. You might as well be a man and admit it!" Yu Zuuoguo replied.

……

Watching the entire interrogation video, it was close to midnight again, and there was a torrential rain outside the window at some point, and the cold air rushed in from the half-open window, and the dryness and heat in the room gradually subsided.Han Yin got up and walked to the window, raised his hand and pushed the black retro frame on the bridge of his nose, his eyes were empty, looking at the boundless rainy night, falling into silent thinking.

The other three people sitting around the conference table have already begun to discuss enthusiastically.

Du Yingxiong frowned, smacked his lips and said, "I feel that Yu Zuoguo is still vague about some questions, maybe Geng Haomeng was right!"

Ai Xiaomi didn't take it seriously, and continued: "I think he did it. There are both physiological evidence and covert evidence. The method of committing the crime, motives, etc., are also very clear."

"I observed it deliberately, and there is really no sign of lying from the micro-expression." Du Yingxiong said unwillingly, holding his nose tightly.

"He has fetishes, is easy to accept psychological hints, and has a paranoid side. He will gradually become addicted to and absolutely believe in what he fantasizes. Lie detection is not very effective for this kind of person." Han Yin standing by the window, back Dressed up and interjected.

"The love of stockings is his original sin. There is no doubt about it. Whether it is burglary, rape or murder, it all stems from his excessive obsession with stockings. Watching the interrogation video just now, the excitement and desire in his eyes when he mentioned stockings is It's obvious." Gu Feifei followed Han Yin's words, and then put forward an organic point of view, "This is a sexual perversion, which may be related to his long-term lack of normal love relationship; or the stockings have a specific pointing effect, Represents a certain fantasy object; of course, there must be the problem of adolescent sexual depression. In addition, I think the recurrent seizures of epilepsy and long-term use of anti-epileptic drugs with serious side effects may cause him to suffer from "chronic mental disorder", It was also an important factor in the change in his personality."

"No way, the speech is quite smooth," Du Yingxiong emphasized, "Thinking and reaction are good, and there are certain anti-investigation actions when committing crimes. How does it look like a mentally ill person?"

Gu Feifei smiled and explained: "It's not what you imagined. There are two manifestations of epilepsy and chronic mental disorders: one is chronic schizophrenia as we often see; the other is personality or mental disorders. Personality has changed. The difference is that people with the latter symptom have a normal level of intelligence and the ability to plan crimes and evade investigation, but due to illness, they will appear irritability, sensitivity, delusional, violent, brutal and other behavioral characteristics. "

"Speaking of which, can we use the behavior characteristics of 'fetishism' to identify whether the murderer is the same before and after the case?" Ai Xiaomi thought for a while and said.

"It is possible, but this case is not that simple." Han Yin turned around and returned to the table, as if he had some kind of answer in his heart, picked up Yu Zuoguo's file photo on the table and said in his hand, " For a person like him, his obsession with and sensitivity to silk stockings is far beyond ordinary people's imagination. Perhaps just hearing the word 'stockings' mentioned by others will cause ripples in his heart. It is conceivable that when many people When the media and neighbors are always talking about the so-called 'silk stocking killer' topic, what kind of interest and attention will be aroused in him. He will definitely try his best to find out every detail of the stocking killer's crime, and he is usually in the whole Needless to say, he is familiar with the geographical location, and it is not surprising that he has a considerable understanding of the case."

"So, you tend to be the country's culprit?" Gu Feifei got a little bit of meaning from Han Yin's last interjection, so she didn't show much surprise at this time, "Could it be that he is just a thief, Just happened to break into the scene of the third murder?"

"It's very likely." Han Yin nodded, raised his hand habitually and pushed down the frame, trying to restore the situation at the time and said, "I believe that Yu Zuuoguo's purpose was to steal at first, but after prying open the door, the hostess was found It was probably the first time he was really close to a female nude, and the stockings tied around his neck were irresistible to him, so he couldn't control himself and masturbated on the spot."

"That's right, I think this kid's speech is too organized, and it's not normal!" As if inspired by Han Yin, Du Yingxiong thought for a while and said, "In the few murders, the confession of the crime location was extremely accurate, and the language organization It is too formal, not the way normal people speak, and it seems very deliberate. Compared with the confession of the theft case, it is more like his real speaking state. I think Mr. Han is right, Yu Zuuoguo should only be interested in the case special attention."

"This is indeed an anomaly. In addition, Yu Zuuoguo said that the last time he committed theft before he surrendered was during the May Day holiday of the year when the crime occurred. That is to say, he had raped and murdered twice before, so the theft The behavior is essentially a degenerate performance, which does not conform to the characteristics of abnormal psychological development.” Han Yin continued Du Yingxiong’s words, “If Yu Zuuoguo really upgrades from a fetishist to a serial killer, it shows his abnormal psychology. It has developed to a very deep stage, collecting or even stealing stockings can no longer satisfy his psychological needs, he needs to constantly experience and challenge higher levels of pleasure, even if there is degeneration, it will never be in such a short period of time!"

"But why is Yu Zuuoguo's confession basically within a reasonable range compared to the facts of the case? Especially when he can give covert evidence, does he really have such a high IQ?" Ai Xiaomei frowned and asked.

"This is where the 'March 3' case feels confusing, and it's also the absurdity of the whole incident." Han Yin pursed his lips and smiled, knowing that the little girl wanted to say that his argument was not sufficient, so he added "In fact, Yu Zuuoguo may not be very clever. The reason why the confession did not show any major flaws is because he speculated about the real murderer's behavior with the thinking logic of a fetishist, which happened to be consistent with the abnormal characteristics of the case. Just as an actor creates a character, if he has a corresponding life, his performance will naturally be real and vivid. Especially Yu Zuoguo put himself into the case, vividly blended fantasy with reality, lie and truth, and firmly believed in this, which made it even more impressive. It's hard for people to tell. It's actually a disease called 'criminal insanity'."

"I understand," Du Yingxiong opened up the topic of Han Yin, "When Yu Zuuoguo explained the method and process of the theft, he was obviously telling the truth; his saliva at the crime scene also showed that the 'excessive excitement led to relapse of the old disease'. Then using these two true points, he explained very well the reasons why the third case showed different characteristics from the first two cases, such as why there were no signs of picking the lock in the first two cases, and why only the first two cases Fingerprints and semen were left in the three cases. As for why there was no stocking factor in the first crime, and the motive of the whole series of crimes, he gave his confession in the way of a stocking lover. In reality, these people Needless to say, I would collect stockings as souvenirs through various channels, and I have indeed heard that people like them would ask for or even buy stockings from hostesses or sex workers, and there should be many experiences of being rejected.”

"Exactly." Han Yin patted Du Yingxiong on the shoulder to show his approval, and then a sly smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, "I can't explain the problem of 'lipstick' yet, but I have an idea, and I'll talk about it when I'm sure."

"Even if Yu Zuuoguo witnessed the crime scene, can he really notice that the stockings hanging around the victim's neck are tied into a bow?" Ai Xiaomei seemed to be on the verge of confrontation with Han Yin.

"Of course! Didn't I say that Yu Zuuoguo has an unimaginable sensitivity to stockings. I believe he not only observed how the stockings are knotted on the spot, but also recollected and practiced them from time to time after that." Du Yingxiong Grab the words.

Du Yingxiong and Han Yin sang together, Ai Xiaomei finally misfired, and the meeting room fell silent.A few minutes later, Gu Feifei asked the most incomprehensible question: "What is the motive for the crime?"

"Loneliness, fear, despair." Han Yin took a long breath, with a touch of pity and compassion in his eyes, and said like a ghost, "I am Yu Zuoguo, suffering from a congenital disease. Ignored by almost everyone, loneliness is like fate and cannot be broken. I am naughty, fight, disobey the teacher's discipline, and even set fire in class, not because I am a bad boy, but because I want the people around me to notice me too much. "Stock Stocking Killer" let I am envious, everyone is talking about him, he is like a god, for a moment, I really want to be him, I want to let everyone see my existence like him. Gradually, I began to feel that I am He, he is me. I tried to reveal my 'identity' to some people, and I got unprecedented attention. I knew it was because of evil, but I felt a pleasure in my heart, so I decided to tell the whole world Announcement - I am the 'silk stocking killer'! I know very well that I will lose my freedom and even my life because of this, but what does it matter? My mother will leave me soon, and sooner or later I will become that lonely ghost..."

"Because I am always accompanied by loneliness, I am not good at establishing good interpersonal relationships with others, and I can only gain attention in extreme ways in the end; because my mother is terminally ill and died soon, I am afraid of survival and feel hopeless about life; The sudden appearance of his father, who is a successful businessman, once again ignited his hope of life, so there was that call to his father to withdraw his confession." If Du Yingxiong realized something, with a heavy tone, he exchanged Han Yin's sentimentality A confession, combined with the case to make some conclusions.

"I still can't understand," Ai Xiaomei shook her head subconsciously, and asked, "Will someone really pay such a huge price in real life to break loneliness?"

"Yes, and he is much more paranoid than Yu Zuokuo." Han Yin pulled his emotions away from Yu Zuokuo, "Thomas Quick, a Swede, has voluntarily confessed to the Swedish police that he committed more than 30 vicious crimes. The extremely cruel crimes involving murder, dismemberment, rape, and cannibalism shocked the whole country. He was even called the "Swedish version of Hannibal" at one time. And absurdly, two years after his conviction Finally, in a TV interview, he admitted that because of his desire for attention and the use of drugs, he made up a big lie that he had never killed anyone. The details of the confession were mostly obtained from newspapers and books. I saw it in the relevant documentary documents in the museum."

"But the national conditions are different. Sweden doesn't have the death penalty. If our court finds Yu Zuoguo's crimes, he will definitely be shot. Will he be afraid of death?" Ai Xiaomei said vigorously.

"Not necessarily." Gu Feifei, who had been silent for a long time, interrupted and reminded, "The 'mental illness' referred to in our country's criminal law is not just a medical mental illness, it is a general term for mental illness in the legal sense. Epilepsy belongs to Mental illness in the legal sense defined by judicial psychiatry, Yu Zuuoguo suffers from epileptic personality disorder, but also has a certain ability of self-control, and is a person with limited criminal responsibility. In view of his voluntary surrender, there may be a possibility of a death sentence with a reprieve. "

"I don't think he thinks that deeply. The main reason is that the process is too attractive to him. On the other hand, he may also be a little fuzzy, and he doesn't want to look back when he has decided on something." Du Yingxiong was very thinking at this time. clear.

"Okay, let's not argue for now. In general, excluding Yu Zuuoguo as a suspect is only one direction, and solid evidence is still needed." Gu Feifei spread her hands and sighed heavily, "Actually, I really hope that Yu Zuoguo Zuo Guo is the murderer, so our current case will be much easier to handle."

Seeing the two little guys arguing tit-for-tat, Han Yin had a helpless wry smile on his face. He knew that he had created a big problem for the entire case-handling team—if it wasn't Yu Zuuoguo, then who was the real culprit?If the real culprit is at large, there is a possibility that he will come back to commit crimes. Then the current case may be a copycat crime, or it may be a continuation of the crime.From the perspective of the direction of the investigation, it is necessary to use a two-pronged approach, which not only distracts energy, but also consumes more police force.

After a while, he exchanged glances with Gu Feifei, and made some targeted arrangements: the murderer involved Geng Hao in the case, it is very likely that he was a kind of cover-up, using him to disrupt the police's way of handling the case and achieve the purpose of escaping investigation , but it cannot be ruled out that he is here for Geng Hao, and then we have to make a fuss about Geng Hao and his social interactions.Gu Feifei and Ai Xiaomei are obviously easier to communicate with Geng Hao, so Han Yin suggested that they coordinate with Team Zhang to follow up on this task; Han Yin and Du Yingxiong will try to dig out the truth of the "3" case , but the time is too long, the two of them have to figure out which starting point is better.

Section [-] Stockings are innocent
The investigation around Geng Hao's social relations focused on finding a man with a height of more than 1.80 meters, a slight hunchback, disabled legs, and a lame walk.Of course, the physical characteristics may also be a kind of camouflage, so you can't relax about any doubts.

The murderer went from obtaining the autograph book to "peeping" the itinerary, and then to mailing the CD. It can be said that he has done every step of the way. He has obviously made careful plans, and he must have a considerable degree of attention and understanding of Geng Hao.Except through the Internet and the media, is it possible that he has followed Geng Hao?Or is it possible that this person came from Geng Hao's side?With these two questions in mind, Gu Feifei and Ai Xiaomei found Geng Hao again and asked him to think carefully about whether there were any suspicious people around him before and after the incident, especially whether he had hurt anyone or had any grudges with others in the past few years.

Geng Hao really couldn't figure out how cold this was, and while pouring tea for the two of them, he said carelessly: "In recent months, I have spent more time in other places than in West Governor, and I don't feel that I am being followed, nor do I feel Especially offended anyone, and there must be no lame among the people I dealt with!"

Gu Feifei smiled, brought the teacup to her lips, thought for a while, and said carefully, "We heard from your manager Tian Shuang that you broke up with your girlfriend who has been with you for many years, do you think she has May resent you?"

"Yes, on the day I received the certificate, I regretted it. She invited many friends and relatives to the registration office to witness, but I didn't show up, and the scene was very embarrassing." Geng Hao laughed silently, and laughed at himself, "I didn't expect that I would also go back and run the groom. , people will definitely be angry about this kind of thing, but we talked openly and honestly afterwards, I gave her some compensation, and finally broke up peacefully. Besides, she is a weak woman, does she have the ability to kill and frame me? Even if she hired Is it possible for others to do so similarly?"

"Well, we just proposed a direction of investigation." Gu Feifei was afraid that he would think too much, so she hurriedly explained.

"By the way," Geng Hao patted his forehead, "You mentioned Sister Tian just now, and I think of someone."

"Who?" Ai Xiaomi asked.

"Sister Tian's husband, Song Ping." Geng Hao specially emphasized, as if there was something in the words, "I had dinner at his house once, and we discussed the case together, and Song Ping seemed to be particularly interested."

Of course Gu Feifei could hear the meaning of the words, and asked, "How is Sister Tian's husband?"

"How should I put it, I'm jealous, and I have a problem with my mentality." Geng Hao sneered, and said, "Song Ping was working as a security guard in the bank. He was a small leader at first, but later he made some mistakes and was demoted to an ordinary security guard. My agent has to deal with the media and clients frequently, so she has to pay special attention to dressing, and she is also good at taking care of herself, so she looks glamorous and beautiful. In addition, I have not treated her badly in terms of money , as far as her husband's dead wages are incomparable to her. Song Ping probably also felt that the gap between him and her was getting bigger and bigger. Suspicious, steal Tian sister's bag, peek at the mobile phone text messages, and do some indecent things. You Qi always suspects that I have an affair with Tian Jie. Once he found a box of contraceptive pills in Tian Jie's bag, and then made trouble Open it, insist that Sister Tian has something to do with me, and even hit me, almost making me and Sister Tian terminate the cooperation relationship."

"Tell me his work unit and mobile phone number." Ai Xiaomei took out a small notepad from her bag, obviously Song Ping was a suspect worthy of investigation.

Geng Hao took out his mobile phone and called up Song Ping's number, and gave out the address of his unit in detail. After watching Ai Xiaomei write it down, he acted as if he had realized something and said: "If Song Ping is worth tracking down, there is another person I have to tell you two. The situation is this: I have a loyal reader who has always admired the books I wrote. I interact with him on Weibo and QQ from time to time. Hearing that I change the subject matter, he He is also very supportive. During the writing of "The Strangler", we had many discussions, and he was also very interested. The problem was that I had promised him that the new book would be named after him for the hero, but then I felt that His name was too vulgar, so he didn’t use it. As a result, the book came out, and he opened it with joy, but he couldn’t find his name. He thought I was teasing him, so he turned against me. He left me messages over and over again, saying a lot of nasty things , I put him on the blacklist in a fit of anger, and I haven't contacted him since then."

"Is he a local?" Gu Feifei asked.

"Yes, but I haven't seen anyone else, I just mailed him a signed book, I have home address, phone number and so on." Geng Hao got up and ran to the study, holding a small card after a while Come out and hand it to Gu Feifei.

If Yu Zuuoguo was not the murderer of the "March 3" case, then the most puzzling thing in his entire confession is how he knew the lipstick left at the crime scene.

Han Yin has two assumptions about this: first, it is possible that during the interrogation, the interrogator gave Zuo Guo inappropriate guidance, suspected that the interrogation video had been edited, and Han Yin asked Ai Xiaomei to make an appraisal, but the result was negative In this way, there is only one possibility left, the concealed evidence from the second crime scene of the "March 3" case was inadvertently produced by Yu Zuoguo during the burglary in the early stage of the murder.

From the perspective of location, the crime scene is not far from Yu Zuo’s country, and it belongs to his psychological comfort zone for committing the theft crime—although Yu Zuoguo showed a certain plan in the plot of the theft, Han Yin feels that he is still more biased in general. Compared with "unorganized criminals", this type usually prefers to commit crimes in familiar environments.The problem is that when the police investigated the scene of the case, they found no signs of damage to the door lock. Could it be because the victim found out that the stockings at home had been stolen earlier, so he was embarrassed to call the police and changed the lock by himself?But after so many years, can the family members of the victim still remember such a thing?

The victim Liu Lin, her husband passed away before she was killed, and her son and daughter were married at that time and had their own residence.Han Yin and Du Yingxiong contacted Liu Lin's son through the phone number left in the dossier, and the son contacted his sister, both of whom said they had never heard from their mother about changing the locks.However, according to his son’s recollection, he lived on the second floor, and his mother had told him about installing anti-theft windows. At that time, he felt that it was quite safe to live in for so many years, so he didn’t take it seriously.The time was roughly within one or two months before his mother was killed, but I can't remember exactly.

In this way, it seems possible to assume that Yu Zuuoguo had sneaked into Liu Lin's residence through the window on the eve of the murder, and carried out the act of stealing stockings.Liu Lin may have noticed it, but she couldn't be sure, so she came up with the idea of ​​installing anti-theft windows.Therefore, although Yu Zuuoguo has concealed evidence, he is not the murderer, so it is logically possible.This is a small step forward for excluding Yu Zuuoguo as a murder suspect, but I am afraid that the focus of the investigation will have to be adjusted in the future, because there are too few things that can be excavated from Yu Zuuoguo. If he continues to be the center of the case, I am afraid We are about to walk into a dead end, so we might as well put more effort into the real culprit. Besides, what could be more convincing than finding the real culprit?
Of course, even so, the line of Yu Zuuoguo cannot be completely discarded. The "March 3" series of rape and murder cases involved a total of three cases, and two of them coincided with Yu Zuuoguo's theft target, which cannot be completely ruled out. These two people have nothing to do with each other in reality, and because of Yu Zuuoguo's daily activities of running around in the community, he may have actually met the murderer.So Han Yin sent Du Yingxiong to ask Yu Zuuoguo's father and the doctor in charge when he was in the mental hospital, and try to write down every sentence and every word he said to them as much as possible. China has inadvertently disclosed information about the real murderer.

Du Yingxiong took the order to leave, and Han Yin embarked on the road of dissecting the real murderer alone.He patiently walked through the three crime scenes one by one. This is also the path that the murderer had walked. Han Yin seemed to be following his aura, and at the same time he gradually sketched his image in his brain: this is a man with strong organizational skills. The murderer, who took protective measures from the beginning of the crime, effectively avoided leaving fingerprints, hair, semen and other evidence at the scene, indicating that the three cases were not random crimes, but were planned; the murderer was able to control external ejaculation, The first crime was deliberately mixed with theft to confuse the police's judgment on the motive of the crime, indicating that the murderer has a certain degree of sexual maturity and relatively mature thinking ability, and his age is between an adult and a mature man. 20 years old; but only took away cash and ignored many valuables, which also shows that the murderer lacks real anti-investigation experience and should have no criminal record; The face is dominant, which on the one hand shows that he has considerable confidence in his size and strength, but also shows a deep anger.

In terms of the choice of the victim, the murderer obviously has his fixed pattern - an elderly woman with independent space.For such a group, the murderer committed sexual assault with full of anger, which shows that he has the ambivalence of love and hate towards them, and this kind of abnormal psychology will not be created overnight, perhaps because of the growth process of the murderer The lack of care for women in the medium and long term is likely to be due to living in a patrilineal single-parent family and having his own image of women.In addition, it may also be related to his environment, such as the need to deal with elderly women for a long time due to study or work.Of course, no matter what the possibility is, there must be factors that distort his mentality, such as being abused or molested.

In fact, it is not uncommon for the murderer to choose targets in the Xinle community, so how did he choose them?Is it random, or is it screened?Generally speaking, it is not very easy to judge, but from some details, Han and India are more inclined to the latter possibility.In the first case, the victim was wearing a cotton nightgown when she was killed. If she faced a completely strange man, she would not have put him in the house dressed like this.And if Han Yin's judgment on this point is correct, it means that the murderer and several victims have some kind of intersection in their lives.

The next thing to analyze is the method of killing and the "signature" of the murderer. For criminal psychology profiling, they are the two most valuable crime plots:

Whether it is the media, the general public, or even the police, they all use "silk stocking killer" as the pronoun for the murderer of the "3" case. It seems that everyone believes that the murderer has a special perverted complex for stockings, so that even Yu Zuoguo, the authentic of fetishes think they are kindred spirits.Han Yin does not think this is the case. If silk stockings can really arouse desire and pleasure to the greatest extent for the murderer, then the complex about silk stockings must exist in the entire series of cases. It can be said to be a behavior close to obsessive-compulsive disorder. is irreplaceable.However, there were no factors related to stockings in the murderer's first crime, which shows that the murderer's way of strangling or strangling the victim is just a "criminal habit", and the noose can change with the environment and objective conditions. It can be a pajamas belt, stockings, or something else... as long as the murderer thinks it is suitable and effective, that is to say, there is no such thing as a "silk stocking killer" in essence.

The act of the murderer tying the noose into a "bow tie" around the victim's neck is an obvious "mark of crime."For this case, this kind of marking behavior is the last link in the whole criminal process from the characteristics of the case and trace evidence, so the "bow tie" is obviously not a substitute symbol, but intended to reveal the identity of the murderer.

To sum up, the victim is an elderly woman, and the bow represents the murderer, that is to say, it is the bow that hurts the elderly woman. So what is the relationship between the two in reality?Han Yin felt that the two key words "old women" and "bow tie" must have some kind of bond to link them together.

Chapter Nine: Two Lives a Day

Han Yin’s latest profiling analysis of the “March 3” case revealed the following key points: the murderer was between 19 and 20 years old at the time of the crime; the victim was an elderly woman who lived alone for a long time, and the murderer was The selection of victims in such a group is not random, and there may be some relationship between the murderer and the victim or even the group of victims in reality; the stocking factor is not necessary in the case, and the murderer himself has no love for stockings; the "bow tie" represents the murderer identity of.

This report also extended Han Yin's judgment on the current "4" case. He is more inclined to simulate the crime. The 23" case is very different. Based on the facts of the case and the clues provided by Aunt Wang, it can be seen that his general approach is: to lock down relevant types of targets on the road and follow them. Out of the principle of caution, he will not strike up a conversation with them on the road. He will not make a surprise attack the moment the target person enters the house. He will lure the target person to open the door as a maintenance worker of the gas company. In other words, the way the target is selected is random, and there is no intersection between the two parties in reality.

Of course, the most distinguishing factor is the "stockings" factor interspersed in the case.The technical appraisal showed that the stocking noose used by the murderer in the second crime was found in the victim's home after he stunned the victim.What he wants to express is nothing more than the importance of stockings to the murderer in the whole process of committing the crime. His understanding of the murderer of the "3" case is as superficial as most people, and he thinks it is a fetish. Thus exposed his disguise.As Han Yin mentioned many times before, the more the murderer pretends to be during the crime, the better it is for the investigators to gain insight into the essence of his personality.As for his other actions in committing the crime, they were all done on the premise of imitating the previous case, which is of little value to the background of the profiling itself, but it is undeniable that he is familiar with all the details of the case, and this is the only one that can be traced direction.This brings us back to the dilemma faced by the initial investigation of the case. Who else can spy on the case information that has been tightly sealed by the police?

The social investigation surrounding Geng Hao has not made any progress, especially the suspects given by Geng Hao—Song Ping and fans who fell out, Gu Feifei and Ai Xiaomei have personally investigated the crimes, and the results show that they do not have the time or motive of committing the crime.In addition, Du Yingxiong visited Yu Zuuoguo's father and attending doctor, but did not get any valuable clues.

Regarding the current situation of the "4" case, the support team had an open and honest exchange with the Xizhou police, including Zhang Shijie and other key case-handling officers.For the next work, both sides feel that they have encountered a "bottleneck" and lack of proactive investigation methods. It seems that they can only wait for the murderer to "make moves" again, which also means that innocent citizens will be killed again.Zhang Shijie was naturally anxious, and he didn't care about politeness, so he strongly suggested to Gu Feifei that since the "23" case has been classified as a copycat crime, Han Yin must put down the old case in his hand and devote all his energy to the current case.He has already seen that Han Yin's unique perspective and sharp insight and analysis ability are the biggest weapon for the support team to handle the case!
For the police, if they cannot take the initiative to attack, they should do a good job of defense first, and they cannot wait for citizens to be killed.If the murderer continues to abide by the law of imitating crimes, then the Xinle Community may still be the center of his crimes. Zhang Shijie decided to deploy a large number of police forces in plain clothes to the Xinle Community to implement 24-hour uninterrupted surveillance, hoping to capture the murderer before he strikes.

Han Yin could understand Zhang Shijie's mood, and of course he was willing to go all out to solve the "4" case, but the "23" case came to an abrupt end just after he felt some clues, and he felt somewhat regretful.So focusing on the present, Han Yin felt that the most urgent thing was to find out the real motive of the murderer's imitation, otherwise he could only be led by the nose, but time may be running out. He had an ominous premonition that the murderer would soon Will make a comeback.

Sure enough, only ten hours later, a worse, even unimaginable situation appeared, and this time the murderer seemed to sense some kind of danger, and the crime location was far away from the Xinle community!
On May 5, only half a month after the murderer committed the crime last time, around 26 am.

Tian Shuang lay naked in the living room of her home, her face was bloody from the beating, her facial features were extremely deformed, and her almond eyes were wide open, fixed in a surprised expression.The time of death was between 6:7 and 4:[-] the evening before, and he was still strangled to death by stockings, which were still wrapped around his neck, and the knots were tied into a bow.At the scene of the investigation, the door lock had not been picked, and no signs of violent entry were found. The victim's lower body was red, swollen and torn, showing signs of sexual assault, but this time semen was collected from the victim's lower body.The reporter was Tian Shuang's husband, Song Ping. He was on night shift last night and left home around [-] pm. When he came back from get off work this morning, he found his wife had been killed.

Apart from crying, Song Ping couldn't say anything of value. Staying at the scene could only interfere with the work of the police.Zhang Shijie ordered the police to take him back to the team first and make a detailed record.For the support team, Du Yingxiong and Ai Xiaomei are in charge of visiting the outside, including other residents in the building and some residents in the community.Han Yin and Gu Feifei didn't look very good-looking, they stood in the living room and silently watched the investigation and preliminary examination of the corpse.

Not long after, there was a sudden noise at the door of the room. Looking back, Gu Feifei saw that it was Geng Hao who was arguing with the policeman guarding the door, so she greeted the policeman and motioned for him to let Geng Hao in.Geng Hao set off the cordon and walked to Tian Shuang's body, his face suddenly showed a surprised and grief-stricken expression, Shaoqing finally couldn't help it, his eyes were red, he covered his mouth tightly with his hands, and wept silently.

"Why are you here?" Gu Feifei turned her head and looked at Geng Hao scrutinizingly.

"Brother-in-law hung up on me and said..." Geng Hao sniffled, choked up and couldn't continue speaking.

Gu Feifei gave a "hmm" and turned back to continue to pay attention to the preliminary forensic examination.At this time, the forensic doctor was turning over Tian Shuang's fisted hand, wanting to observe whether there was any foreign matter in the nails, but heard Gu Feifei suddenly shouted: "Wait, is there something in the fist?"

The forensic doctor opened Tian Shuang's stiff fingers one by one. Sure enough, a ball of paper fell to the ground. The forensic doctor picked it up and handed it to Gu Feifei.Gu Feifei took it and unfolded it carefully, Han Yin and Geng Hao also came over, and the three of them saw together: This is a black and white sketch of a figure, the artist has a certain skill, and the painting is a nude woman lying on her side , with a bow tied around her neck, knife marks all over her face and chest, a woman with exquisite facial features, deep eyes and a straight nose, and a conspicuous beauty mole between her eyebrows...

Geng Hao suddenly went crazy, grabbed the drawing paper, took a closer look, quickly took out his mobile phone from his trouser pocket, and hurriedly dialed a number.He put the phone to his ear and listened for a while, but it didn't seem to be connected. He redialed, and after a few seconds, it still didn't seem to be connected... Geng Hao held the drawing paper tremblingly in one hand, and held the phone in the other, speaking tremblingly Said: "This, the painting on this may be my ex-girlfriend Liu Yuqin, could she... die too?"

Nearly an hour later, Zhang Shijie kicked open the door of Liu Yuqin's residence.

Liu Yuqin was lying on her side in a pool of blood. Like the previous victims, there was nothing else on her body except the bow tied with silk stockings around her neck.She faced the door, staring at the big innocent eyes, as if she was on the verge of death, still looking forward to the appearance of a savior.She was also not spared, and there were traces of sexual assault on her lower body, but the murderer seemed to be very angry about her, as if just strangling her was not enough to release the resentment in her heart, so it was as expressed in the painting in Tian Shuang's hand , the murderer brutally stabbed the corpse with a sharp knife more than a dozen times in succession near the chest, and scratched her face with the tip of the knife, and threw the murder weapon beside the corpse.

There was a sound of vomiting from the stairwell at the door, obviously Geng Hao couldn't bear what happened before him.It became clear that the murderer was targeting him, first involving him in the case, and then killing people who were close to him one after another.

At this time, Geng Hao didn't care about his demeanor, wiped his mouth with his shirt sleeve, staggered and stood at the door, yelling nervously inside: "Why...why... since that beast hates me so much, Why didn't you just kill me?!"

Han Yin, who was watching around in the room, turned his head and glanced at him, and said in a cold voice, "He won't kill you, he just wants to torture you, he wants to make your life worse than death!"

"It's all my fault, it's all my fault, why did I write that book?" Hearing Han Yin's words, Geng Hao took it for granted that the contents of his new book angered the real culprit of the "March 3" case who is still at large, and thus suffered revenge .He tugged at his hair in frustration, his face was ashen, and he muttered: "I killed them, it was me...it was me..."

Seeing Geng Hao's guilt and self-reproach, Gu Feifei couldn't help feeling distressed. She walked over and pulled him into the door, handed him a tissue, and waited for him to wipe off the tears on his face and the vomit residue hanging from the corner of his mouth. She said softly : "Calm down, the truth may not be what you imagined, if the case is really caused by you, then you should actively assist us in catching the murderer. As far as you know, does Liu Yuqin live in this house alone? "

"Yes, this is her mother's house, and she has two houses outside, but it's close to her work place, so she usually lives here." With Gu Feifei's comfort, Geng Hao regained his composure.

"What about her mother?"

"Her father has passed away for many years, and her mother found a wife a few years ago, and she usually lives with him."

"Do you have contact information?"

"Yes, there is a mobile phone number."

"Call her and say we want to meet her."

"Auntie... oh, you are out of town...you should come back quickly, something happened to Yuqin... you will know when you come back..." Geng Hao quickly connected to the phone, worried that the old man would not be able to bear the excitement for a while and damage the phone. Body, can only be vague on the phone.After hanging up the phone, he explained to Gu Feifei: "Yuqin's mother and her wife are traveling abroad, and they said they will buy a plane ticket and come back immediately, and it will probably be midnight today at the earliest."

……

On May 5th, between 25:18 and 19:21 and between 22:4 and 23:3, the murderer committed crimes twice in a row, and the victims all had close relationships with Geng Hao. As a result, the motivation for the "19" crime partially surfaced.The reason why it is said to be "partial" is because it can only be confirmed that the murderer committed the crime specifically against Geng Hao. As for what kind of feud and hatred he has with Geng Hao, it is necessary to torture Geng Hao with such cruel and despicable means. It is really hard to guess.What's more, he is also an insider of the "March [-]" case, so his identity is even more confusing.

The two victims lived in relatively old and open communities with no monitoring system and outdated anti-theft doors. Neighbors said they did not notice any suspicious persons appearing in the community, and other peripheral investigations were fruitless.

In terms of physical evidence: The murder weapon used to stab Liu Yuqin was a long fruit knife belonging to a well-known brand. The trace inspector found many knives of other styles of this brand in Liu Yuqin’s kitchen. The fruit knife used as the murder weapon happened to be a suit series of the brand, that is to say, this knife belonged to Liu Yuqin and was not brought to the scene by the murderer.In addition, the forensic doctor collected semen from the lower body of the victim Tian Shuang. Although no matching DNA has been found in the information database, it is not a small breakthrough.

However, Han Yin is not optimistic about this point. It is hard to say that the sample belongs to the murderer. Judging from the cautious style shown by the murderer in the four known crimes, he should not leave such a big flaw.In contrast, Han Yin thinks that what is more noteworthy is the psychological trajectory embodied by the murderer's additional actions during the crime.

The murderer killed two people in a row overnight, and he did not shy away from exposing the core motive of committing the crime, showing signs of a strong desire to escalate.In particular, his use of hand-drawing to predict another crime shows that he has begun to enjoy this game planned by himself.Then the following criminal methods may not be limited to imitation, but may completely break the original model and create a criminal model with his personal style.

Soon, Han Yin's guess about the DNA samples was confirmed again.

Ai Xiaomei technically restored the deleted WeChat chat records on Tian Shuang's phone, and found that Tian Shuang had been having an affair with a fitness trainer named Dongzi through WeChat for a long time.The chat records show that the two not only often go to the hotel to get a room, but Tian Shuang will take Dongzi to fool around at home while her husband is on night shift.This was the case on the day of the incident. Shortly after Song Ping left home for work, Tian Shuang sent a WeChat message to recruit Dongzi to his home... The picture message sent by Dongzi in Moments easily pinpointed the gym where he worked. Zhang Shijie personally brought him back to the team for questioning.

Dongzi handed over the DNA test samples cooperatively. While waiting for the identification results, he confessed that he and Tian Shuang were lovers, saying that he left Tian Shuang's house at around 6 o'clock in the evening that day, and then went to a restaurant with a group of friends for a party. The show ended in the early hours of the morning, and in the end he took the initiative to give out the contact information of several witnesses.

A few hours later, the DNA comparison results came out, confirming that the semen remaining in Tian Shuang's lower body was Dongzi's.The police officer who was sent out to interview the witnesses also sent back news, confirming that Dongzi never left during the meeting.And through questioning the people around Dongzi, I learned that he is a little boy who specializes in soft food. Tian Shuang has spent a lot of money on him in recent years. It is simply his cash machine. How could he be willing to kill her? Woolen cloth?

However, the questioning of Dongzi was not fruitless. Dongzi left Tian Shuang's house at around 6 o'clock in the evening, which was very close to the time when the murderer committed the crime. Zhang Shijie felt that Dongzi's departure and the murderer's going to Tian Shuang's house might be a matter of back and forth, so he went Ask Dongzi to think carefully about whether he has encountered anyone suspicious when he came out of Tian Shuang's house.

After his reminder, Dongzi really remembered one thing: when he came out of Tian Shuang's house, he lowered his head and talked on the phone while going down the stairs. A man bumped into it.As for the man's appearance, he really couldn't tell. First, it was because it was getting dark at that time, and the man was wearing a sports hat with a long brim, which covered most of his face; Those who are also guilty of being a thief themselves do not dare to look at others directly.Anyway, they didn't care about each other, and then they went their own way, but he glanced at the man's back and saw that he was lame on one leg when he went up the stairs.

From the point of view of time, if there is no accident, the man Dongzi mentioned should be the murderer. The key point is that his lameness is similar to that of the person who hired him to buy books according to Fang Damin.Since the tall man collided with Dongzi accidentally, which was an accidental factor, then there is no problem of disguise, and the police can fully confirm that the murderer has the characteristics of "lame".

In addition, in the case of the murder of Geng Hao’s ex-girlfriend Liu Yuqin, the murderer added the action of stabbing and cutting the corpse’s chest and face, which is obviously an “excessive killing”. Since this is not the first time the murderer committed the crime, Han Yin believes that the additional corpse torture is especially aimed at Facial movements represent more of a "personal grievance".Therefore, regarding the murderer's background information, in addition to the "lame" feature just confirmed, he is also very likely to have some kind of intersection with Liu Yuqin in reality.

Although they have broken up, Geng Hao and Liu Yuqin have been in love for many years after all, and he knows her daily social interactions better. He tried his best to make a list of people and contact information he knew and gave it to Gu Feifei.At the same time, Ai Xiaomei sorted out Liu Yuqin's mobile phone call records and communication records of social software such as WeChat and QQ in depth, and also made a list of investigations.Gu Feifei handed over the two lists to Zhang Shijie, asking him to arrange police officers to investigate and visit as soon as possible.Of course, the mother knows her daughter best, so everyone is eagerly looking forward to Liu Yuqin's mother's plane landing as soon as possible.

Chapter Ten Lovesickness Becomes Sick

At around 9 o'clock in the evening, Liu Yuqin's mother and stepfather finally rushed to the team.The white-haired man sent the black-haired man, and upon hearing the bad news, Mother Liu fainted immediately.Fortunately, Gu Feifei was present and gave her artificial respiration in time, and Liu Yuqin's stepfather gave her a few antihypertensive medicines before she slowly recovered.

The old lady woke up and immediately asked to see her daughter's body, but Liu Yuqin's death was too tragic. With the old lady's current physical condition, who would dare to let her see it?So Gu Feifei prevaricated on the grounds that the autopsy had not been completed and the family members could not see it for the time being, but she didn't expect the old lady to be ungrateful.The atmosphere was at a stalemate, and Liu Yuqin's stepfather came out to smooth things over. In fact, he was afraid that his wife would be provoked into something bad, so he proposed to go and see the daughter on his behalf.

Liu Yuqin's stepfather was led to the forensic department by the police. Gu Feifei watched Liu's mother drink a glass of warm water and her complexion improved slightly, so she began to ask, "Do you usually communicate with your daughter a lot?"

"It's not bad. I often call and sometimes go shopping together." Mother Liu said with a choked voice.

"As far as you know, has she ever had any trouble with anyone in the past six months, the kind that makes others hate?" Gu Feifei asked.

"Impossible? I haven't heard her mention it. Except for the problem of spending money recklessly, this child has a good personality and everything. He is very gentle. He shouldn't offend anyone." Mother Liu shook her head vigorously, denying .

"What about the emotional aspect? Apart from this relationship with Geng Hao, has she had any other boyfriends?" Gu Feifei asked.

"This Geng Hao doesn't know what he thinks. He's going to get married soon, and then break up with her. Isn't this playing tricks on my daughter? Who can bear his torment, but Yuqin is so useless. Where can I talk about friends when I'm in the mood? Besides, I think Yuqin actually still has Geng Hao in her heart, and she still wants to find a chance to get back together with Geng Hao." When Geng Hao was mentioned, Liu's mother was really angry, and she scolded her before returning to the topic, "But I had a relationship with Geng Hao before, that child was from out of town, the two started dating when they were in college, and they broke up after graduation, I only heard Yuqin mention it later, I don’t know the situation of that child .”

"No more?" Gu Feifei asked unwillingly.

"No more." Mother Liu shook her head, froze for a moment, as if she suddenly remembered something, "Oh, no, I remembered, it seems that she has a client chasing her recently. Before I went on a trip, she accompanied me shopping Spare parts, I mentioned it so much, but she doesn't want to associate with him, saying that he has a problem..."

"Is it a leg? A little lame?" Zhang Shijie, who had been sitting next to Gu Feifei without saying a word when Liu Mu mentioned the word "problem", immediately thought of the murderer's physical characteristics, and couldn't help interjecting.

"No, it's unbearable to say that he always spit when he talks." Mother Liu stopped suddenly and asked hastily, "You mean that the person who hurt Yuqin has a leg problem?"

"From the information we have so far, there is such a possibility." Gu Feifei's eyes were fixed on Liu's mother's face, as if she felt that Liu's mother's answer would bring a glimmer of light to the case.

"Could it be that lunatic Dahai?" Mother Liu complained, her eyes widening.

"Who is Dahai? Why do you think he is the murderer?" Gu Feifei asked anxiously.

"It all happened more than ten years ago. If you don't mention the lame leg, I really can't remember it." Liu's mother narrowed her eyes and recalled, "Dahai's name is Liu Chunhai, and he is the grandson of Yuqin's father and uncle. Usually our relatives do not move around much, even less among the juniors, and we don’t know each other very well. One year, because of the move of the ancestral grave, the relatives of the whole family gathered together. Yuqin was 17 years old at the time. He was still a high school student, so he went with his dad just in time for the holiday, and Liu Chunhai fell in love with anyone who thought about it."

"Liu Chunhai was 23 and [-] years old at the time. He had just returned from being a soldier and was demobilized. For some reason, he was like a bewitched man, so he took a fancy to Yuqin and insisted on having sex with her. Don't you think this is nonsense? Let's not talk about Yu Qin is still young, the key is that this has not yet released the 'five clothes', and it is a close relative, how can it be possible to talk about friends? But the boy is not giving up, no matter how much our two families persuade him, it is useless all day long. There are many times He ran around downstairs in our house in the middle of the night, and then he jumped off an overpass to commit suicide. Fortunately, there was a fruit stand tent under the bridge to block him, otherwise he would have fallen to his death. From then on After the second time, his legs became disabled, and he walked up and down. Later, the family really couldn’t see him, so they sent him to a mental hospital, and after an examination, they said that he was suffering from severe lovesickness.”

"Psychiatric hospital!" Zhang Shijie couldn't help but read out several key words that overlapped with the case, and then asked, "Which psychiatric hospital did Liu Chunhai live in, and in what year? do you know?"

"It seems to be the hospital I lived in around 2005. It is said that I have lived in and out for three or four years. As for which hospital I really don't know." Liu mother scratched her head and recalled.

"Then what's his situation now, can you find him?" Gu Feifei asked.

"His parents died in a car accident a few years ago. It seems that his elder brother is taking care of him now. I do have his elder brother Liu Chunjiang's mobile phone number. Wait a minute, I will look for it." Mother Liu took out a small phone from her backpack Ben flipped through it twice, and handed it to Gu Feifei, "Here, this is the number, please write it down, this kid is promising, he will start a big company by himself, and become the big boss."

After getting Liu Chunjiang's mobile phone number from Liu Yuqin's mother, Gu Feifei dialed it immediately.Although it was late, the case was urgent, and if we bought more time, maybe one less innocent citizen would be killed.

After the call was successfully connected, Gu Feifei handed the call to Zhang Shijie, so that Liu Chunjiang would not hear a local accent and think it was a fraudulent call.Zhang Shijie took the call to reveal his identity. Liu Chunjiang said on the other end of the phone that he was driving home. Zhang Shijie asked him to come to the Municipal Criminal Police Detachment first, saying that there was a case that needed his assistance.

More than 20 minutes later, the guards at the gate led Liu Chunjiang to the interrogation room. It looked like he was under 40 years old, with his shiny back hair and a briefcase in his hand. The demeanor of a successful person.

"Do you know where your brother Liu Chunhai is?" Zhang Shijie was not polite, and went straight to the point.

"I was on a business trip for half a month, and I just came back yesterday. Why, did my brother cause trouble?" Liu Chunjiang was a little puzzled for a while, took out his mobile phone from his briefcase, dialed a number, listened to it for a while, put it down and said, "The kid turned off the phone."

"Where does your brother live?" Zhang Shijie asked back.

"Living in our old house, what did he do?" Liu Chunjiang seemed to feel that things were not as simple as he imagined, and his tone was a little anxious.

"Come on, you will lead the way in front of the car and take us to find your brother. I will explain the details to you later." Zhang Shijie still did not explain, and walked out while holding Liu Chunjiang's shoulders. From words and actions, Liu Chunjiang was not allowed to do more Rebutting, Liu Chunjiang had to passively follow the instructions.

According to Liu Yuqin's mother: Liu Chunhai is also a tall man, and his legs were disabled due to a suicide attempt by jumping off a bridge.The above points are consistent with the background information of the murderer of the "4" case that the police currently have. The question is, if he is the murderer, how would he know the hidden information of the "23" case?
When Du Yingxiong asked Yu Zuuoguo's attending doctor for questioning, he learned that: Yu Zuuoguo lived in the mental hospital under the name of a murderer in the early days, which indeed caused a lot of shock. The medical staff and patients regarded him as a heinous person. The devil kept a respectful distance, and he was kept under surveillance in a ward with the highest level of protection.But with the passage of time, many people found that he was not as scary as they imagined. He always had a simple smile on his face, and never made any particularly violent or aggressive actions. He received medicines, ate and slept on time , in the eyes of doctors is definitely a model patient.So gradually, the hospital's protection against him was downgraded, and later he was able to move, eat, and work together with other patients, not much different from ordinary patients.In other words, if Liu Chunhai and Yu Zuuoguo lived in the same mental hospital at the same time, they would have had a chance to have contact. Liu Chunhai may have learned about the "3" crime plot from Yu Zuuoguo.

Since Zhang Shijie was so focused on finding out where Liu Chunhai was hiding just now, he didn't give Han Yin and Gu Feifei a chance to intervene, so when they came out of the detachment building, the two simply got into Liu Chunjiang's car, hoping to find out where Liu Chunhai was hiding on the way. Clarify some details.

The night was surprisingly dark, the surrounding fog was foggy, the visibility was very low, the wind outside the car window was warm, and the quiet night was broken by the loud siren, everything was so disturbing.

At this time, Liu Chunjiang, who was leading the way in a black jeep, was also restless, moving his buttocks from time to time, and seemed unable to find a comfortable sitting position.After a while, he picked up the phone again, and then put it down again, muttering obscenities to himself, obviously scolding his younger brother Liu Chunhai who had never been able to get on the phone.

Finally, when he was completely annoyed and flung his mobile phone on the passenger seat in a panic, Han Yin found a space to ask questions: "How long will it take? Is your old house far away?"

"Far away, in the southern outskirts of the city." Liu Chunjiang replied very simply, and his tone was not very polite. He probably thought that Han Yin and Gu Feifei were assigned to get in the car to monitor him, but suddenly he seemed to realize something, and looked through the rearview mirror. He looked at the back row and said, "According to the accent, you are not local, but from the provincial department? Is my brother involved in a big case this time?"

"We are from the General Administration. Your brother's problem is still uncertain, so we need your assistance." Gu Feifei continued politely, "As far as we know, your brother was treated in a mental hospital for lovesickness. We I want to know which hospital he lived in, how many times he stayed there, and what year he was in."

"The hospital is a Kangjian Mental Hospital. My father has an acquaintance there. Time...I have to go back and forth many times. I have to think..." Knowing the identities of the two, Liu Chunjiang was more polite, and after thinking hard for a while, he finally Slowly said, "The first time should have been in September 2005; then I stayed in the hospital for more than two months in 9; I stayed in the hospital for almost a whole year in 2006; the last time was in 2007, when my parents died in a car accident. It stimulated him a little more, and he stayed for about 2009 months."

Sure enough, Liu Chunjiang's words confirmed their previous speculation that Liu Chunhai and Yu Zuuoguo were hospitalized at the same time.Gu Feifei and Han Yin exchanged glances, and continued to ask calmly: "Do you still remember Liu Yuqin?"

"Of course, that's my sister!" Liu Chunjiang replied casually, then seemed to think of something, and asked, "Could it be that Dahai is really looking for someone? What did he do to Yuqin? Kidnapped?"

"So, he mentioned Liu Yuqin to you recently?" Han Yin asked back along the topic.

"At the end of last year, I can't remember the specific day. Anyway, Dahai rushed to the company to ask me for money that day. I didn't care at first, because it was like this usually. He would ask me for money when he had no money. Give him a sum. I used to apply for several cards for him, and paid him some living expenses on a regular basis, but this kid lost everything, and lost one within a few days. Cash." Liu Chunjiang's resistance was completely gone, and he took the initiative to explain the ins and outs of meeting his brother at that time, "But after I gave him the money that day, I felt that this kid was very excited, so I asked casually, 'Why are you in such a good mood today? '. I didn't expect him to mention Yuqin to me, saying that Yuqin was dumped by her boyfriend, and it was on the day of marriage registration, which was very exciting to her. He wanted to buy brand-name clothes, so he could take care of himself and comfort Yuqin I was anxious when I heard it. After so many years, I managed to stabilize his condition, but don’t go the old way, stop him quickly, and spent more than an hour scolding, persuading and threatening. Later, he was afraid that I would really give up. After paying his living expenses, he promised me that he would not harass Yuqin, and Yuqin has never looked for me, so I thought this matter was over."

"How did he know that Yuqin broke up with her boyfriend?" Gu Feifei asked.

"He said he saw it from Yuqin and her boyfriend's Weibo. He also said that Yuqin's boyfriend is some kind of celebrity. In fact, this kid has been silently following Yuqin's life for so many years. Once I went to see him at home. I used his computer for a while, and saw a lot of photos of Yuqin in it, and I don’t know where this kid got it.” Liu Chunjiang looked up at the rearview mirror again, and asked tentatively, “Did you make a mistake? If he wanted to hurt Yuqin, he would have done it long ago, why did he have to wait until now?"

"When was the last time you saw him?" Gu Feifei still ignored his question and continued to follow her own way of thinking.

"On New Year's Eve, I called him home for a reunion dinner, and gave him tens of thousands of dollars as a red envelope." Liu Chunjiang sighed, with a bit of self-blame, "Oh, the company has a lot of business these days. How can I bother to call him, I thought he didn't come to see me because he didn't run out of money!"

"Has your brother ever learned to draw?"

"I really learned it, and I don't really understand it. Anyway, it's the kind of sketch drawn with a pencil. I remember that he drew a lot of portraits of Yuqin back then."

……

Through the conversation with Liu Chunjiang along the way, Liu Chunhai's image as the murderer of the "4" case seems to be becoming clearer and clearer.Gu Feifei stared straight ahead with piercing eyes, a little ready to fight, but Han Yin felt a faint feeling of uneasiness in his heart, maybe this arrest will not be as smooth as imagined.

The Liu family's old house is located in the deepest part of a village alley. The alley is narrow and the police cars cannot drive in. Everyone had to get off at the entrance of the alley and follow Liu Chunjiang to walk there.

Holding flashlights, the group walked for three to five minutes on the bumpy dirt road, and finally saw Liu Chunjiang stop in front of a big iron gate.He took out a bunch of keys from his briefcase, struggled to identify the long ones, and opened the padlock on the big iron door.

Just because the gate is locked does not mean that there is no one inside. To be cautious, Zhang Shijie asked everyone to turn off their flashlights, so as not to startle them, and then they entered the courtyard quietly.Han Yin looked around for a while. Except for a cement-paved path in the middle, there were weeds all around. A thick and tall green hill stood beside the wall with luxuriant branches and leaves, covering most of the courtyard, making the whole courtyard even more gloomy.The main building in the middle is composed of five rooms. At first glance, it looks quite grand. The blue bricks and gray tiles, cornices and corners are antique, and it must have been built a long time ago.It's just that in such a dark and quiet night, the Liu family's old house gave him a more desolate and gloomy feeling.

There was no movement or light in the house, and the two original-colored wooden doors were not locked. Liu Chunjiang reached out to grab the door handle, paused for a moment, seemed a little embarrassed, and then pulled the door open forcefully.Immediately afterwards, he rushed into the dark room, tentatively called his brother's name twice, but got no response.Zhang Shijie waved his hand, signaling him to step aside, holding a flashlight in one hand and a gun in the other, and walked into the room cautiously.Gu Feifei and others followed, and Han Yin, who had no weapons and equipment, could only follow at the end according to regulations.

Everyone entered the house, quickly searched each room, and met after a while, shaking their heads at each other, indicating that they did not find Liu Chunhai.Zhang Shijie couldn't hide his disappointment, cursed, ordered the lights in each house to be turned on, and conducted a more detailed search for physical evidence.

No.11 Leading the snake out of the hole
Liu Chunhai probably ran away on the lookout!

Searching the Liu family's old house, a computer was found. Liu Chunjiang confirmed that he bought it for Liu Chunhai, but the hard disk in the case was removed, and then the hard disk was found in the bathtub filled with water in the bathroom. Throwing two books, the cover Gu Feifei is very familiar with, that is Geng Hao's newly published novel about the "March 3" case - "The Strangler".

The hard disk of the computer may have stored some incriminating evidence of Liu Chunhai from planning to committing the crime, and those two books should be the signed books he hired Fang Damin, a migrant worker, to extract Geng Hao's fingerprints.He threw them into the bathtub, apparently with the intention of destroying the evidence and suggesting that he may have realized he was about to be exposed, so he fled and went into hiding.

Because the hard disk had been soaked in water for too long and had been broken before, Ai Xiaomei tried her best to extract the stored information but failed.Fortunately, after technical appraisal, it was confirmed that the CD mailed to the detachment was burned with the recorder on Liu Chunhai's computer.

At the same time, after reviewing the communication records of Liu Chunhai's mobile phone, Ai Xiaomei found that the last call to this number occurred on April 4 this year.But the timing seems to be a bit special, because only one day later, the first crime of the "22" case occurred, which shows that Liu Chunhai had a very careful plan for the whole crime, and he abandoned himself at the beginning of the crime. The commonly used number may be intended to prevent the police from using this to track down his clues in the future.

In addition, Ai Xiaomei deliberately browsed the Weibo of Geng Hao and Liu Yuqin, and found that the frequency of posting and interaction between the two is quite high, and she does not shy away from exposing her private life on it.And Liu Yuqin's Weibo account also followed a person named "Chunhai", and there was still interaction between the two. Judging from the tone of the interaction, the account named "Chunhai" belonged to Liu Chunhai, but most of the two people were in a relationship. Simple greetings.It can be judged from this: Liu Chunhai should use Weibo to grasp the daily activities and emotional changes of Geng Hao and Liu Yuqin.

As for Liu Chunjiang, after investigation, it was confirmed that he had been on a business trip for more than half a month, and there was no act of covering up his younger brother.

Based on the various clues currently available, Liu Chunhai is indeed suspected of committing a major crime.With the approval of the Municipal Bureau, the arrest warrant and the assisted investigation notification were issued to all branches and grassroots police stations as soon as possible.The detachment mobilizes all available manpower, in addition to paying close attention to airports, stations, wharves and other traffic arteries, as well as public places such as hotels, guesthouses, saunas, etc., which is beneficial to Liu Chunhai's social interactions, daily activity areas, and the vicinity of his residence. Hiding places, etc., have been thoroughly investigated and searched.

In addition, judging from the facts of the case, Liu Chunhai committed the crime mainly against Geng Hao.The reason may be that after Liu Chunhai saw the news of his breakup with Liu Yuqin on Weibo, he thought he had another chance, so he went to Liu Yuqin to confess his love with full of fantasies, but was rejected.Maybe not only that, maybe Liu Yuqin, who was suffering from a broken relationship at the time, said some nasty things to him, and Geng Hao was also involved in the words, which deeply stimulated Liu Chunhai, and then made Geng Hao the biggest enemy in life, Then a crazy revenge plan was launched.In view of this, Zhang Shijie specially placed eyeliner around the community where Geng Hao lived to prevent Liu Chunhai from being extremely vicious and carrying out the ultimate revenge against Geng Hao.

The investigation by all parties lasted for more than a week, but there was only a lot of thunder and little rain. Except for a few minor illegal cases, Liu Chunhai was not even touched.The support team and the Xizhou case handling team met to discuss whether to use some new methods, but unexpectedly, Liu Chunhai made the move first.

Not long after the meeting started, Geng Hao suddenly broke into the conference room, feeling very excited. Waving a piece of paper in his hand, he went straight to Zhang Shijie, and slapped the paper on the conference table in front of Zhang Shijie, his eyes were red. , said hoarsely: "Enough! Enough! I don't want any innocent people to be hurt for me. For me, there are only two roads left: either commit suicide and make a complete end; or you throw me as bait." Get out and lure that bastard out!"

To be able to sit in the position of the captain of the detachment, he has naturally seen all kinds of scenes. Faced with Geng Hao's sudden formation, Zhang Shijie was not confused. He gave him an angry look before picking up the pieces of paper on the table to look at After looking at it, I asked where the piece of paper came from.Geng Hao responded that the murderer sent it to his Internet mailbox, and then he printed it out.Zhang Shijie frowned and handed the piece of paper to Gu Feifei who was sitting beside him. Gu Feifei took it and glanced at it, then frowned and handed the piece of paper to Han Yin who was beside him.Han Yin saw: On this A4-sized white paper, there was a black-and-white sketch of a figure—a nude woman lying on her back with proud twin peaks and a bow tied around her neck. The head, the head seems to have been cut off, and blood splattered at the break...

Han Yin looked at the painting in his hand and fell into deep thought: This sketch must be a preview of the next case. The murderer deliberately did not draw the head, perhaps to indicate that the next crime will use more brutal murder methods, or perhaps to Let Geng Hao and the police speculate on the identity of the victim.These two possibilities, no matter which one, or both, will make Geng Hao suffer physically and mentally.Then go back to what the murderer did to him - first framed Geng Hao, who was arrested by the police; then killed his manager and ex-girlfriend, let him understand that everyone died because of him; and now This "teaser painting" sent directly to Geng Hao via email, announced that those close to him will continue to be punished for his "mistakes".Taken together, the thinking logic of the murderer's crimes is simply too methodical, step by step, step by step, gradually intensifying the impact and torture on Geng Hao's mind, until it drives him completely crazy.As it is now, he already feels that life is worse than death.

Han Yin raised his head, his expression became more serious, because he suddenly realized that he had greatly underestimated Liu Chunhai before. He seemed to be a criminal with a high IQ, and his pursuit of control, manipulation, and domination had reached the highest level. up.

At the moment when Han Yin was concentrating, Zhang Shijie talked about everything, and finally pushed the manic Geng Hao to sit down on the chair, but it was difficult for him to calm down for a while, and he insisted on Zhang Shijie to give an explanation immediately.Gu Feifei saw him almost collapsed, and felt an indescribable sadness in her heart, so the idea that she had been thinking about for a while came up again - she should not be led by the nose like this again, he should let him Take the initiative to come to us!
"I think what Geng Hao said makes sense. In order to prevent innocent people from being killed again, we really need to take more proactive measures. I agree to formulate a 'trapping plan', but..." Gu Feifei hesitated, and raised her voice slightly. "I'll be the bait!"

As soon as Gu Feifei said this, the conference room immediately fell silent, and almost everyone was stunned.Geng Hao was the first to react, blushing, waved his hands vigorously and said, "No, no, Feifei, I'm a big man, I can't let you take this risk for me!"

"Are you a bait?" Zhang Shijie had sensed something from the first meeting between the two, but he couldn't help but follow Geng Hao's words and asked, "In what capacity?"

"Ex-girlfriend, Geng Hao and I did have a relationship before. This is a fact. Even if Liu Chunhai knows him better, there will be no flaws." Gu Feifei replied calmly, "The ex-girlfriend came back from abroad and is going to get back with Geng Hao. Chi, with such an identity and background setting, it should be attractive enough to Liu Chunhai."

"But if Liu Chunhai has followed Mr. Geng, then he probably has seen you and Xiaomei, and maybe he also knows that you are a policeman. Will he take the bait?" Du Yingxiong interjected and asked.

"Don't worry about this, I have my own way." Gu Feifei smiled like a trick, and then told Ai Xiaomei, "Xiaomei, go to the mall to help me choose a suitable wig, long hair... ..."

"I firmly disagree, Feifei, I am very grateful that you can help me clear the suspicion, you really don't need to do this for me." Geng Hao impatiently interrupted Gu Feifei, and refused with a hoarse voice road.

"You misunderstood me. I am doing my duty as a policeman. I am willing to be a bait because I am suitable and it has nothing to do with you." Gu Feifei deliberately spoke in a businesslike tone to relieve Geng Hao's pressure and guilt .

"If you really decide, I have no objections, but time is tight, we must immediately formulate a plan and start implementing it immediately." Zhang Shijie added, "As for manpower, you don't have to worry about it, the team will fully cooperate."

After Zhang Shijie finished speaking, he turned his attention to Han Yin. He knew that no matter how lively he and Gu Feifei talked, he needed Han Yin's professional advice to formulate the details of the plan, especially how to hold Liu Chunhai to the greatest extent from the psychological level.Gu Feifei also turned her head to look at him at this moment, with regret in her eyes, but also a hint of stubbornness...

Han Yin was in a complicated mood.Although Gu Feifei has always had a strong personality, she used to pay attention to his feelings in many things, but just now when she made the decision to put herself in a dangerous situation, she didn't pay any attention to what Han Yin was thinking, let alone let her stand up And the person who came out was her ex-boyfriend. As the current boyfriend, Han Yin felt somewhat uncomfortable.From a work point of view, Gu Feifei's entrapment campaign was actually a bit of a desperate attempt, and even put it bluntly, it was a gambling-style action. Of course, Han Yin's personality did not like this extreme approach.But he also saw that Gu Feifei was determined. I am afraid that it is difficult to listen to different opinions at this time, so he hesitated for a while and could only nod silently. At the same time, he habitually showed his iconic smile to conceal his inner anxiety and overwhelmed.

Regarding this trapping operation, there are mainly two steps:
The first step is to attract Liu Chunhai's attention in the shortest possible time, so that he can shift his attention from the innocent people to Gu Feifei. Bo followed the daily movements of Geng Hao and Liu Yuqin.

The second step is to gradually introduce Liu Chunhai into the scope of monitoring through the contact between Geng Hao and Gu Feifei in reality. Only by exposing Liu Chunhai to Liu Chunhai and creating a platform for him to commit crimes can he be arrested and brought to justice.

Regarding role setting: The role that Gu Feifei wants to play is not as simple as she imagined. A person's identity and background determine his environment. The problem is that, as mentioned earlier, it is necessary to create opportunities for Liu Chunhai to commit crimes , then the residence chosen for Gu Feifei should be in an open community with lax security, no monitoring, and easy access to and from the unit building.Correspondingly, her status cannot be too high-ranking, and the status of the so-called "ex-girlfriend of returnees" proposed by Gu Feifei is obviously inappropriate.Therefore, after some urgent discussions, Gu Feifei was finally set as an ordinary white-collar worker, with a pseudonym Chen Nan, a native of the city, renting alone, working for a trading company run by Geng Hao's friend, and her relationship with Geng Hao It's not ex-boyfriend or girlfriend, but a new relationship.In fact, if this is the case, any female police officer can be used as a bait, but Gu Feifei still insists on going into battle in person.Firstly, she felt that she was the one who proposed the entrapment plan, and she should bear the risk; secondly, Zhang Shijie really couldn't find anyone in the team who matched Geng Hao's temperament and image.

When it comes to temperament and image, Gu Feifei is a natural beauty. She keeps her makeup on most of the weekdays and only applies makeup on important occasions. But this time, in order to prevent Liu Chunhai from bumping into her when he was following Geng Hao, he had to do a thorough job on his makeup and temperament. transformation.Although Han Yin had some mental preparations for this, he was stunned when the refitted Gu Feifei made his appearance:
Gu Feifei wore a long maroon wavy wig, thin black eyeliner was painted on the inside of her eyes, and long eyelashes were glued on. The three-dimensional and deep eye-expanding effect made her big clear eyes look extremely beautiful. She is very radiant, and the bright lip gloss on her pink lips adds a bit of charm to her entire face.In terms of attire, she appeared in a black and white classic workplace attire, with a white chiffon shirt with five-quarter sleeves and a small stand-up collar, and a black one-step skirt. The pink high-heeled shoes look particularly eye-catching.If Gu Feifei was a refreshing, capable and cold beauty in Han Yin's heart before, then now she seems to be a coquettish goddess full of vitality and allure.Not to mention Liu Chunhai, even familiar people can't tell that she is Gu Feifei.

In addition, there is another very important link in this operation, which is to find a suitable "residence" for Gu Feifei.As mentioned earlier, this place should be in a low-end community, preferably facing the streets of the community, and the floors should not be high. It should be convenient for Liu Chunhai to observe the indoor conditions and make him feel that the environment is an opportunity for him to take advantage of.Fortunately, a relative of a police officer in the case handling team happened to have a house to rent out. The house was located in the Sunshine Garden Community of the city.

Out of prudent considerations, although the leaders of the Municipal Bureau approved the entrapment operation, they emphasized that the original investigation work must continue to advance, which inevitably faced the problem of a shortage of manpower, and Zhang Shijie could only do it as reasonably as possible. distribute.In view of Liu Chunhai's previous burglary methods, Gu Feifei's residence is naturally the key monitoring area. Around the unit building where the residence is located, Zhang Shijie has arranged multiple monitoring points, and the key point is also the command of this monitoring task. The center is located in a rental house on the opposite building, and it is equipped with high-powered telescopes, photographic and video equipment, and monitoring equipment.Since Zhang Shijie is the general coordinator of the case, Ai Xiaomei will be in charge of this monitoring point.In addition, Du Yingxiong led a police officer in the task force to follow up and protect the safety of Gu Feifei and Geng Hao when they went out...

With the cooperation of all parties, all the preparations for the plan were completed in less than a day, and the trapping operation could be officially launched at any time.

At noon that day, Geng Hao posted a "warm post" on his Weibo, which roughly meant: When his life was at its lowest point, he was lucky enough to meet a beautiful and gentle woman. Will repay her with all the love of my life... There is also a photo attached to this post, which is a selfie photo of him and Gu Feifei. Most of his face makes it difficult for people to get a glimpse of his true face.

This is the first step of the sting operation mentioned above. Using Weibo to attract the attention of Liu Chunhai who is hiding in the dark. Since his purpose of committing the crime is to hope that Geng Hao's life will be better than death, then Geng Hao's life will be better than death. On the contrary, gaining a new favorite is definitely not what he would like to see. He will naturally pay special attention to Chen Nan played by Gu Feifei.However, Chen Nan couldn't be seen clearly in the group photo, which may make Liu Chunhai's curiosity aggravated, and his desire to know Chen Nan will also become stronger, so he quickly shifted his attention from the original victim to Chen Nan come here.In other words, the details of Chen Nan covering his face with sunglasses were deliberately designed by Han Yin, and the psychological effect played is the same as that of Liu Chunhai's teaser picture without a head. If Liu Chunhai is really hooked, It can also be regarded as repaying the person's body in his own way.Of course, it can't just be such a Weibo. According to the plan, in the days to come, showing affection on Weibo is the homework that Geng Hao must do every day.

If the first step of the trapping operation achieves the desired effect, it means that Liu Chunhai has successfully targeted Chen Nan as the next victim. From his point of view, he must first find out the details of Chen Nan, especially the place where Chen Nan lives. place.Given his current situation, perhaps the only way to achieve this goal is to follow Geng Hao, and then find the right time to commit the crime.Of course, this is what the police want to see. What they want is that in such a process, he will gradually step into the net that the police set up for him.

Next, the second step of the action is to present the intimate contact between Geng Hao and Chen Nan in reality.The rough plan is: Geng Hao will drive Chen Nan to and from get off work every day. When the time is right, the two of them can go shopping, watch a movie, or go to a bar. Of course, a romantic dinner is inevitable.Anyway, do what a person in love should do, and have more breath of life, so as not to be seen by Liu Chunhai who is hiding in the dark.

These are not difficult for the two of them, after all, they have been in contact with each other before, and there is still a certain tacit understanding, and even some superficially intimate actions, such as holding hands, hugging waists, crossing arms and so on, are quite natural to do.Moreover, Geng Hao also took the initiative to "add drama". From time to time, he would go to the company at noon to give Chen Nan a box of love he made himself, and he would also give Chen Nan brand-name bags and cosmetics on his own initiative. Kissing Chen Nan's forehead can be said to have done enough for the interaction between couples.But in the eyes of other police officers who know the inside story, he seems to be a little too involved. In the words of Du Yingxiong and Ai Xiaomei-this Geng Hao is a bit trying to make a fake show.

In this way, another week has passed, and all kinds of investigations and entrapment operations have not caught even the slightest trace of Liu Chunhai, but at the same time, he has not continued to commit crimes. This is a good trend for the sting operation, and it may mean Seeing that Liu Chunhai was already attracted by Geng Hao's Weibo, it was only out of caution that he didn't show up rashly.However, another possibility must be considered, that is, Liu Chunhai is no longer in the city. Especially through reverse tracking of the IP address, Ai Xiaomei discovered that the email with the "trailer picture" received by Geng Hao was actually Liu Chunhai. It was sent from the Liu family's old house in a regular way earlier, which seems to be a bit suspicious and procrastinating to ensure that he can abscond to other places safely and smoothly.

Therefore, just in case, with the approval of the higher authorities, the scope of Liu Chunhai's wanted arrest has been extended to the whole country.At the same time, the Xizhou police also got in touch with the Hainan police, requesting assistance in protecting the safety of Geng Hao's family members in Hainan.As for the entrapment operation, it is still proceeding according to the original plan. The Municipal Bureau has also issued special instructions, requiring all police officers involved in the mission to continue to maintain strong fighting spirit and be prepared to compete with criminals in patience and willpower. The slack, so as not to give criminals an opportunity...

No.12 Unsolved Case Suspects
When the joint support team of the Xizhou police was hunting Liu Chunhai with all its strength, Han Yin appeared alone in the Xinle community.

In fact, the sting operation has entered the implementation stage, and his role is quite limited. From a certain point of view, it is a waste of resources for him to continue to follow up. Han Yin had a frank communication with Gu Feifei and Zhang Shijie. I was able to start investigating the "3" outstanding case again.The two also felt that it was indeed overkill to carry out the arrest task of "squatting in the pit" as Han Yin, so they agreed to his request.

The "March 3" cases concentrated in the Xinle community, which shows that even if it is not the murderer's usual residence, it should be an important area for his daily activities.But after so many years since the crime happened, it is obviously too difficult to go back and screen the murderer. Besides, there is not so much police support, and Han and India alone can screen until the year of the monkey.

Also, as mentioned earlier, the key to solving this case lies in whether the intersection between the bow tie and the elderly murdered woman can be found.Han Yin also attached great importance to this direction of investigation, but when he got started, he found that the way was too simple. It was nothing more than searching the Internet for these two keywords. He did so, but the result was still at a loss.

Han Yin was not discouraged when the previous two investigation directions were unworkable. He knew very well in his heart that the starting point for investigating such a long-standing unsolved case was always a difficult problem.After some comprehensive consideration, he felt that he still had to start with the qualities of the serial killers he was familiar with.

The "March 3" serial rape and murder case involved a total of three cases, that is to say, the murderer stopped abruptly after committing the third crime, which is a special case for the group of serial killers.Theoretically speaking, serial killers with abnormal mentality, especially those with "sexual behavior" in the crime plot, are difficult to automatically stop committing crimes, especially in the stage of frequent crimes, unless they die due to diseases or accidents or lose their ability to continue committing crimes Ability and other factors, otherwise they would not suddenly disappear without a trace.Of course, there are also opposite cases, such as Gao Chengyong, the perpetrator of the Gansu Baiyin series of rape and murder, and the American BTK killer Dennis Ladd. In this section, people's concentration, physical strength, and mentality will all change with the changes in real life situations, and it is possible that the desire to commit crimes will decrease or even be completely eliminated.

Getting back to the topic, following the idea above, Han Yin came to the Municipal Bureau's reference room and retrieved the death population registration information records from the dedicated computer management system...

The last time the murderer committed the crime was on June 2007, 6. For the sake of caution, starting from this day, Han and India expanded the time to the end of 27. In nearly a year and a half, the number of deaths due to accidents and diseases in Xizhou City was 2008; Combining the age range between 1960 and 20 years old in the previous criminal profile, the number was reduced to 40; after excluding women, the number was reduced to 912; the family address and work unit address of the dead population were further registered The Xinle Street, which belongs to the Xinle Community, was demarcated separately, and the number of people dropped significantly to 690.

Han Yin compared the screened death population information back and forth with the previous criminal profiles many times, taking into account factors such as height, physique, occupation, and criminal record, and finally delineated 12 candidates who are suspected of committing crimes.Immediately, he left the reference room with the printed information of the 12 suspects and headed for Xinle Street.

When I went, I was full of longing, but the result was not very ideal.Although I was lucky, with the cooperation of the street police station, it took two or three days. Except for one family who moved to another place two years ago, Han Yin, the family members of the other 11 suspects, were all seen. They cooperated, but none of them seemed to make Han Yin feel that any one of the candidates had a more convincing motive for committing the crime—whether secular or psychological.So with frustration and loss, Han Yin locked himself in the reference room again. This time, he decided to screen all the registration information of the remaining 690 of the 615 people.

After staying up all night like this, Han Yin has more than a dozen suspects in his hands, and two of them he thinks he should focus on.One of them was working as a security guard in a nursing home and died of illness in March 2008; the other was working as a doctor in the Second Affiliated Hospital of Municipal Medical University (geriatric hospital) and drowned in September 3.Although these two people's home addresses and registered workplace addresses are not related to Xinle Street and Xinle Community, but due to their work, they need to contact elderly women for a long time. This is why Han Yin collected their information from hundreds of people. reason for picking out.And relatively speaking, it is clear that there is a greater probability of friction between doctors and patients, so Han Yin is more interested in doctors.

Han Yin tried to use "Second Affiliated Hospital of Medical University" and "Xinle Community" as keywords, and searched in the Internet search engine, but unexpectedly found the connection quickly.It turned out that the Second Affiliated Hospital of Medical University once opened a branch in Xinle Community, but it was canceled for various reasons until the year before last.Taking advantage of the victory, Han Yin searched for "Second Affiliated Hospital of Medical University" and "Bowknot" as keywords. After turning several search pages, there was an article titled "Nurses in the Second Affiliated Hospital of Medical University Change New Clothes with Bows to Embellish Youth and New Uniforms to Dress Up" The social news of "Angel" broke into his sight.He opened the link impatiently, and saw that the content probably said: The Second Affiliated Hospital of the Medical University, a designated hospital for geriatric diseases in our city, has customized new uniforms for the nurses in the hospital since March 2005. The new uniforms are beautiful, simple and self-cultivating. The beauty of female curves.In particular, the neckline is decorated with bowknots, which add a lively and lovely atmosphere, and are widely praised by patients...

The nurse, the bow tie, the Xinle Community Branch of the Second Affiliated Hospital of Medical University, the ejaculation outside... Could it be that the murderer was a woman?Is it a female nurse in a geriatric hospital?Han Yin hurriedly threw the doctor's information aside, and turned his attention to the part of the female death list that was previously excluded.Sure enough, without much effort, I found the information of a female deceased. She was a nurse in the Second Affiliated Hospital of Medical University and died in a car accident in January 2008...

Han Yin washed up briefly in the bathroom of the reference room. After coming out, he didn't even bother to eat breakfast, so he took a taxi and went straight to the Second Affiliated Hospital of Xizhou Medical University.

In Han Yin's opinion, the female nurse who was suspected of committing the crime was called Zhang Wen. It has been several years since her death. Maybe younger nurses have never heard of this person. Han Yin simply went to visit the director of the nursing department. Even if he is not the most senior, he must have ten or eight years of work experience, otherwise he will not be able to sit in this position.

Coincidentally, when Han Yin saw the director of the nursing department, he revealed his identity and expressed his intentions. The other party immediately smiled and said that he had found the right person. He said that when Zhang Wen was working as a nurse in the hospital, the head nurse of the department was her. , and Zhang Wen's father also worked in the pharmacy in the hospital before retiring, and he has a good relationship in private. He still has frequent contacts until now, and she is very familiar with Zhang Wen.Later, without Han Yin asking too much, she took the initiative to introduce Zhang Wen's situation:
"Zhang Wen came to us after graduating from university in the autumn of 2005. The little girl looks like a tomboy. Not only is she tall, she is also strong, but she is very gentle. She doesn't talk much and always has a smile on her face. The appearance is very attractive. Later, she was transferred to the Xinle Community Branch, and the people in Corey were very reluctant."

Xinle Community Branch?Isn't this the point of intersection with the victim?Han Yin was shocked, and then asked: "From what you said, she seems to have been transferred away passively. Is there a mistake in work?"

"That's not true. This kid does a good job. He is nimble and diligent. He is often assigned to work the night shift without complaining. The main reason is..." The director paused, thought for a while, and then said, "Unlucky All right."

Han Yin smiled, and heard that the director's words were a bit vague, so he chased after him and asked, "What's wrong?"

"How should I put it, this child is really unlucky and has been wronged one after another!" The director paused, with a wry smile on his face, and said with emotion, "That time, he was a patient with cerebral thrombosis. The boss, in his 60s, came to the hospital every season for transfusions to prevent attacks. This man lived in our department at the time, and the older nurses knew that he had a problem with girls, and he would avoid him when giving him transfusions. , and try to talk to him as little as possible, in case he pushes his nose on his face and gets touched occasionally, he can only think he is unlucky. Zhang Wen had only been here for a few months at that time, and he was in charge of his bed that day. Where is Zhang Wen? Knowing that he is lecherous, he may have chatted with him a few more words to give him the illusion. When Zhang Wen turned around to adjust the infusion tube, he pinched Zhang Wen's buttocks. How could this little girl bear it? He started arguing and was arguing when the man's wife came into the ward, she was also in her 60s and [-]s, she was simply disrespectful, like a tigress, indiscriminately, she swung her arms and gave it to her. Zhang Wen slapped her face twice, and in turn claimed that Zhang Wen seduced her husband."

"How did the matter get resolved in the end?" Han Yin asked.

"What's the solution? People with money and background, not only did not apologize, but also found a lot of problems in the hospital, and finally let it go. It's hard for the child Zhang Wen, and she was wronged in vain." The director said.

"Then why was she transferred?" Han Yin asked.

"That time was even more wronged. It was almost the summer of 2006. A very old lady came to see a doctor. At that time, her niece was helping her. Who would have thought that her niece called, and she was so focused on answering the phone that she forgot about the old lady. As soon as she let go, the old lady fell down in the corridor. It happened that Zhang Wen passed by with an infusion bottle and an infusion set. In fact, it was the old lady who threw Zhang Wen down. It was cut." The director shook his head helplessly and said, "These two girls are not young, and neither of them is reasonable. They opened their eyes and told nonsense. They must say that Zhang Wen knocked the old lady down. At that time, there were no children in our corridor. Surveillance, although there are many people who can testify for Zhang Wen, but it is useless, they are just messing around, not only making the hospital lose money, but also insisting on making the hospital expel Zhang Wen. It has been a long time, and they are not willing to let go. Seeing that things are getting worse The more it can't be dealt with, the greater the impact, the hospital had to give in, adopt a stance of calming things down, and transferred Zhang Wen to the Xinle Community Branch, and the farce was calmed down."

"What was Zhang Wen's nurse uniform like back then?" Han Yin first took a look at the director opposite, saw that she was wearing casual clothes, and then turned his gaze to the door, where several nurses were walking in the corridor, pointing at them Said, "Is it the same as their uniforms, with a bow tied at the neckline?"

"Yes, this uniform is well received, so the hospital has been using this style for so many years, just made some improvements in the material, I remember that Zhang Wen also liked it very much." The director responded.

"She is a single-parent family?" Han Yin asked.

"Yes, she was brought up by her father." The director nodded, and then asked, "By the way, why did you police suddenly think of investigating Zhang Wen? Wasn't her car accident an accident?"

"No, no, no, it has nothing to do with the car accident." Han Yin quickly shook his head in denial, and at the same time felt secretly happy.This is basically on the right.Zhang Wen grew up in a patrilineal single-parent family. Perhaps the image of her mother was not noble in her heart. After growing up, she became a nurse and was repeatedly insulted by older women. The sulking and resentment accumulated in her heart gradually caused her personality to fission until To stimulate the evil potential in her heart, she used a bow tie to reveal her identity and embarked on a journey of revenge for serially killing elderly women.

In this way, the stimulating factors and psychological motives are basically clarified. Except for gender, the others are roughly consistent with Han Yin's previous analysis. The next step is to see if we can find substantive evidence.

Han Yin asked the director of the nursing department for Zhang Wen's father's contact information and home address, but before visiting, he went to the hospital union first.According to the director of the Nursing Department, the current chairman of the labor union used to do nursing management work in the Xinle Community Branch, and was Zhang Wen's immediate boss when she was working in the branch.

According to the chairman of the labor union: Zhang Wen was very depressed when she first went to the branch, and her work attitude was relatively negative. She was indifferent to everyone, including colleagues and patients.But after a while, I don't know why she suddenly changed drastically. Not only is she full of enthusiasm for work, but she also gets along more and more harmoniously with patients.Many old ladies love to chat with her, chatting with her about big and small things in the family, and she can also patiently communicate with those old people. Compared with before, she seems to be a different person.

The clues provided by the union chairman once again confirmed Han Yin's previous judgment and made the case more clear: the three victims in the "March 3" case were indeed Zhang Wen's targeted choices.Of course, this kind of pertinence does not mean that the two parties have overlapping interests in the world, but through daily chats, Zhang Wen confirmed that they either live alone for a long time, or have long-term independent space because of their husband's work relationship.In other words, this kind of targeting is to ensure that Zhang Wen's crime can be completed smoothly, without interference, and without worrying about being bumped into.

After coming out of the hospital, it was almost noon, so Han Yin found a small restaurant to have a quick meal, then took a taxi, and found Zhang Wen's house according to the address given by the director.

After knocking on the door for a while, someone in the room responded in a low voice, and Han Yin hurriedly stated that he was a policeman.After a rustling sound, an old man with gray hair and wrinkled face opened the anti-theft door slightly, rubbed his sleepy eyes, and asked vaguely: "Are you a policeman? I'm fine here. Did you go through the wrong door?"

"I'm sorry, sir, to disturb your nap." Han Yin was stunned for a moment, as if he didn't expect Zhang Wen's father to be such an age, so he asked tentatively, "Are you Zhang Wen's father?"

"Yes, it's me." Hearing his daughter's name, Zhang's father suddenly became sober, and looked at Han Yin vigilantly, "Xiaowen has been gone for many years, what do you want to do?"

Father Zhang suddenly asked such a question, but Han Yin didn't know how to answer. Looking at the old man's vicissitudes of life, the death of his daughter obviously hit him hard.Han Yin couldn't bear to provoke him any more, so he waved the police officer's ID card in his hand, changed the topic and said, "Master, this is my ID card, please take a look. Don't worry, I'm not a bad person, let me come in and talk."

Han Yin was really fooled by this. Father Zhang took the police officer's card and looked at it carefully, then opened the anti-theft door and let Han Yin into the house.

The house is not big, with two bedrooms and a small living room, and the furnishings are quite simple.Han Yin looked at the house, and asked a little out of words: "Do you live here by yourself?"

"When Xiaowen was young, her mother remarried. A few years ago, Xiaowen was gone, and I was the only one left." Father Zhang sat on the sofa with a sad expression, pointing to the chair next to the sofa and said, " Young man, sit down and tell me, what are you doing here?"

Han Yin continued to adopt an evasive strategy. While looking around, he deliberately asked in a casual tone: "How did Zhang Wen think of studying nursing?"

"It was my idea. Although the society was not as competitive as it is now, there were basically no iron rice bowls. Many college graduates could not find jobs. I work in a hospital and I know that no matter how the society develops Seeing a doctor, learning the art of nursing, you will never have to worry about food." Father Zhang said with his eyes narrowed.

"Then after her mother remarried, you didn't contact her again?" Han Yin asked.

"Her mother ran away with a businessman from out of town, and there is no news from her. The children often say that they don't have that mother." Zhang's father sighed and said, "Hey, there are no children who don't want their mother. Xiaowen secretly cries, I all know."

"That's her room, can I have a look?" Han Yinsheng was afraid that Zhang's father would ask him why he came again, so he pointed to the room behind Zhang's father and walked towards the room before Zhang's father agreed.

"No, no!" Zhang's father got up quickly, raised his hand to stop Han Yin and explained, "The previous house was full of Xiao Wen's shadows. I couldn't live in her after she left, so I sold it and replaced it with the current house. .”

"Ah, what about Zhang Wen's stuff?" Hearing Father Zhang's words, Han Yin became anxious.If all the things Zhang Wen used before her death are disposed of, it means that it will be difficult to find evidence related to the "March 3" case. The clues found before can only stay at the level of inference. Still can't finish.Han Yin, who was in a tense mood, couldn't help but raise his voice a lot: "Master, didn't Zhang Wen leave a diary or something?"

"There are a few diaries and some books. I put them in the cardboard box above the cabinet." Father Zhang turned his head and pointed to the top of a large brown cabinet in the room, and then turned around and asked suspiciously. , "What are you looking for, young man? What is the relationship between you and our Xiaowen?"

"Master, our police are disciplined. I really can't explain it to you right now. Please forgive me." Han Yin didn't want to lie or make the old man sad, but right now he couldn't get around the old man's repeated questioning, so he had to use The mandarin on the scene to prevaricate.After all, regardless of how the old man reacted, he went straight to the side of the cabinet, tiptoed and lifted the cardboard box down, then opened the box, sat down on the floor by himself, and began to search.

"Then look for it slowly." Seeing this situation, Zhang's father was also very helpless, shook his head with a wry smile, then walked away from the door of the room, and sat back on the sofa in the living room to watch TV.

Han Yin found a few diaries in the cardboard box, but when he opened them, he found that they were just work notes, and nothing related to the case was found.He glanced at the remaining books in the box, most of them were reference books on clinical nursing, and there were also a few magazines and novels, which should not be useful for handling cases.

Han Yin was somewhat discouraged, but still a little unwilling to give up. He took out the reference books in the box one by one and shook them wildly.Suddenly, two 3-yuan RMB slipped out of a heavy nursing tool book. It was conspicuous that the money was stained with blood.Han Yin immediately thought of the first case in the "March 19" series of cases. After committing the crime, the murderer took the cash from the victim's wallet to obscure the police's vision of handling the case. Will the two banknotes in front of him be the same as that one? What about the money?

No.13 stanza
Around 9:[-] p.m., Liyuan Western Restaurant in Xizhou City.

Gu Feifei's cover identity in the company is an administrative assistant, but including Geng Hao's friend, no one in the whole company knows her real identity, so she is just an ordinary employee there, with a lot of work to deal with every day, without any preferential treatment.

The company recently took over a big project, and Gu Feifei had to work overtime with her colleagues.After work, it was already past 8 pm, and I didn’t have much time to eat at noon. I was so hungry that my chest stuck to my back, and I didn’t care about greeting Geng Hao. I wolfed down the side dishes and soup that came first. It was clean, and then he ate a large piece of steak, and didn't talk to Geng Hao until dessert was served.

"Cough, I didn't expect that a white-collar worker would be so tired. It's really hard to do any job!" Gu Feifei joked, glanced around vigilantly, and asked Geng Hao in a low voice, "Is there anything suspicious today?"

"Go to the bar later?" Geng Hao didn't pick her up, he pursed his lips and smiled, and said, "Today is a day worth remembering."

"Why? What's so special?" Gu Feifei asked in surprise, "Has Liu Chunhai really shown his face?"

"No, where are you thinking? Apart from the case, is there anything else in your head?" Geng Hao tightened his nose, pretending to be disappointed and said, "You really don't remember? The first time we met was Today, 7 years ago!"

"Oh, time flies so fast, it's been so many years!" Gu Feifei was stunned for a moment, and then responded lightly.But Gu Feifei was extremely annoyed, and she actually noticed that Geng Hao seemed to be enjoying this "scene" more and more. It seemed that he wanted to use the opportunity of the entrapment operation to launch a love offensive against her again.Of course, this is the last thing she wants to see, not to mention that she has always been a person who distinguishes between public and private, just talking about emotions, she can't tolerate anyone else except Han Yin in her heart.She just treats Geng Hao as a best friend, or even a relative.But she didn't want to make the atmosphere too embarrassing, so she quickly changed the topic: "Don't talk about the two of us, we are old emperors, let's talk about you and Liu Yuqin? How did you two know each other? Why did you go back on the day of registration?" gone?"

"Well... well, if you want to hear it, then I'll talk about it." Geng Hao said falteringly, with a slightly embarrassed expression, and hesitated for a while before continuing, "It's actually very simple for me to know Yuqin. Then At that time, I came back from abroad and started a smart home company, and Yuqin had just graduated from university and applied to the company to do sales."

Geng Hao paused again, a smile appeared on his face, but it was fleeting, and it seemed that he was in a complicated mood when he mentioned Liu Yuqin: "Yuqin is the kind of girl that you will be attracted to at first sight, She is tall, fair-skinned, with long and curved eyes, and there are two small dimples on her face when she smiles. She is very cute and sweet. I had a good impression of her when I first met her. After getting in touch with her for a while, I found that she has a heart She is a kind girl with good taste in all aspects, and she also has a good impression of me, so we naturally started dating. Later, the company's operation was in trouble, the project concept was too advanced, the market became narrower and narrower, and it failed to raise enough funds , although I persisted for a while, but in the end I ended up graduating. At that time, people often went to the company to collect debts, and the debts owed to me would never be returned. The triangular debt made me burnt out every day, and my mood was particularly unstable, and I often lost my temper for no reason. This may be the case. We had more and more conflicts. In addition to the failure of my career, she felt that she had no hope of following me and could not get the life she wanted, so she broke up with me. Although we live in the same city since then, but We have never contacted each other again, but the fate seems to be still unfinished, and we finally met in a foreign country."

"As I mentioned to you earlier, I had a writing 'bottleneck' period for a while, and I was depressed for a while, and then I simply traveled around. When I went to France, I ran into Yuqin by chance, and the company sent her on a business trip. Maybe it was an old acquaintance from another place. It was because we felt so close, or because the romantic atmosphere that can be seen everywhere in France infected us. In short, the moment we met, all the previous unhappiness was instantly relieved. After a few days of traveling together, we decided to go back to China Together."

"Of course, I have to admit that I was a little impulsive when I reunited with Yuqin, and even agreed to register for marriage after the new book was finished. Or frankly speaking, there was also an element of vanity. The woman who couldn't keep her back returned to her arms, feeling a sense of accomplishment in her heart. However, when things came to an end, when she really had to face this marriage, she realized that Yuqin didn't seem to be the person she really wanted to be with for the rest of her life. At that time, a figure of a person kept appearing in my mind, and that person is you—Gu Feifei!" At the end of the sentence, Geng Hao emphasized his tone, his eyes were slightly red, and his eyes were filled with some kind of expectation, straight Looking at Gu Feifei intently.

Gu Feifei didn't expect Geng Hao to turn the topic to herself again after going around, so helpless, she quickly avoided her eyes and turned her head to look out the French window.

Not far from the window, the jeep of the protection team was parked quietly on the side of the street with the windows closed. Gu Feifei knew best that there were two big men inside.In fact, after so many days, the hero group is the most aggrieved. Due to the lack of manpower, they wander around Chen Nan's company during the day, and have to patrol around Geng Hao's residence at night. They spend almost the whole day in a tin box in the car.The weather is stuffy and hot, and out of prudence, they can't turn on the air conditioner. The heat and smell in the car is unimaginable...

Gu Feifei looked intently, but saw the front passenger car door rushing towards her was pushed open, and then saw Du Yingxiong walking out of the car.Holding his mobile phone close to his ear, he staggered to the rear of the car, and then leaned his body relaxed on the trunk, as if he was talking on the phone leisurely with someone.After a while, a truck passed by the car. He suddenly put down his phone and turned back into the car. The car shook slightly, and it seemed that the engine had started.Sure enough, the car started, slowly turned over the front of the car, suddenly accelerated, rushed towards the opposite side of the street diagonally, and instantly slammed on the brakes with lightning speed, and the body lay across in front of a black car.The black car seemed to be on guard. It backed up quickly, followed by a sudden turn to the left, and with the screeching sound of tires rubbing against the ground, the car body rushed out against the rear of the protection team...

"Ah! Could it be that the person in the black car is Liu Chunhai?!" Gu Feifei couldn't help screaming.

While Gu Feifei was feasting in the western restaurant, Han Yin and Zhang Shijie had no appetite.In Zhang Shijie's office, the two of them did not move a mouthful of the meal they had prepared from the cafeteria, and one was frowning and shaking his feet mechanically with a cigarette in his mouth, while the other was pacing back and forth with his hands in his hands - the two were anxiously waiting The result of the DNA comparison.

Seven or eight hours ago, Han Yin sent the two blood-stained 3-yuan RMB found from Zhang Wen's home to the trace inspection department, and asked the technicians to collect samples for DNA testing immediately.If the result can be compared with the DNA of the first victim in the "19" series of cases, then it can be confirmed that Zhang Wen is the murderer of this series of cases, which means that the case has finally been successfully solved.

The unsolved case that has been unsolved for several years is now about to usher in a clear result. It is conceivable that Zhang Shijie, who was the core member of the case investigation team back then, must be feeling anxious and anxious at this time.Not to mention a long-cherished wish, but from a utilitarian point of view, as the leader of the entire case-handling team and the decision-maker who invited the support team to Xizhou, Zhang Shijie has made extraordinary contributions to the Xizhou Public Security Bureau, and thus also Relatively buffered the pressure and negative impact of the current case on himself and the entire city bureau.Han Yin's goal is quite simple, and it is the same from the beginning to the end. Seeking the truth of the case, returning justice to the victim, and making the criminal accept a fair trial by law is what he wants to do!

Finally, the landline on Zhang Shijie's desk rang, and he immediately stubbed out the cigarette in his hand, then picked up the microphone and put it to his ear.A few seconds later, he put down the microphone abruptly, slammed his fist on the table, and shouted cheerfully: "That's right, the DNA is completely consistent, and the case is solved!"

Han Yin didn't show how excited, this is also his usual style, always suppressing his emotions, of course, because this result is not surprising to him.So he just breathed a sigh of relief, smiled at Zhang Shijie, took out his mobile phone from his trouser pocket, and walked out the door. He wanted to share the good news with Gu Feifei as soon as possible.

It's just that, just after getting the mobile phone in his hand, he received a call before dialing a number.After connecting, Han Yin heard Du Yingxiong's sobbing voice from the other end of the phone: "Mr. Han, Sister Gu, something happened to her..."

At 10:45 p.m., Zhongbei Community, Xizhou City.

Shrill sirens sounded one after another, from far to near, and soon, several police cars swarmed over.As soon as the car stopped, the door opened quickly, and Han Yin, Zhang Shijie, the forensic doctor and the trace inspector jumped out of the car one after another.

The scene was located at a T-shaped intersection. Geng Hao's private car crashed into a high wall directly opposite. The front of the right side of the car was dented in a large piece, and a big hole was torn from the headlight to the windshield. The airbags of the main driver and co-pilot were all ejected, and the people in the car were missing.

Han Yin and Zhang Shijie watched sullenly and silently as the forensic doctor and trace inspectors collected evidence from the damaged car body. Du Yingxiong and another police officer in charge of protection stood aside with their heads bowed.

After a while, Zhang Shijie gave Du Yingxiong a hard look, then stared at his subordinates, with a look of hating iron and steel, and shouted: "It's pure waste. It's so easy to hope Liu Chunhai out, but he can let him under his nose." Take two big living people away, what are they doing for food!"

Of course, Han Yin was more anxious, but he knew it was not the time to complain, so he couldn't get confused, so he calmly continued, "What's the specific situation?"

"Sister Gu got off work late today, and Geng Hao took her to a western restaurant for dinner. We sat down for about 20 minutes, and we noticed a black car parked across the street. What made us suspicious was that the driver was always sitting in the car. Didn’t come out. So I pretended to get out of the car to talk on the phone, and observed the situation in the car through the lights of passing cars. The driver was wearing a hat, so I couldn’t see his face clearly. I guessed it was a man, but I’m sure he was I was fiddling with a camera in the car. Then I went back to the car and talked with the brothers in the task force. I thought it was very possible that Liu Chunhai started to follow Sister Gu as we expected. Based on this, we started the car and thought of taking that person by surprise. The car stopped, but unexpectedly, the driver in that car reacted faster, smashed into our car, and fled away!" Du Yingxiong paused, sniffed hard, and said in a low voice, "Yes, it's my wife. Careless, if we had reported it in time and asked for support, we would not have fallen for it.”

"Caught in a trick? What's going on?" Zhang Shijie urged angrily, "Don't be in a hurry to review it, just talk about it!"

"Then let's start chasing the car!" Du Yingxiong raised his voice angrily, probably Zhang Shijie's attitude made him feel a little embarrassed, but then he lowered his voice guiltily and continued, "The driver drove well. I am also familiar with the road conditions in the urban area. We chased it for about 10 kilometers before we found an opportunity to force the car to stop. The problem was that we dragged the driver out of the car and found that it was not Liu Chunhai at all. But he was also here for Sister Gu. According to his account: He is a private detective, someone paid a high price to hire him to follow Sister Gu."

"Then we returned to the western restaurant and found that Geng Hao's car was no longer there. We asked the restaurant waiter and said that the two of them hurriedly checked out and left almost half an hour ago. And that time happened to be the time when we started chasing the car. I guess it was Geng Hao saw the situation on our side, so he sent Sister Gu back to Sunshine Garden immediately. I immediately called the monitoring team of Sunshine Garden, but the news I got was that I didn’t see the two of them going back. I had a feeling in my heart Having an ominous premonition, he realized that he might have been tricked by Liu Chunhai just now, so he hurriedly searched for Geng Hao's car along the road, and found it here, and it turned out that something happened."

"However, judging from the brake marks and scratches on the rear of the car, this should not be an accident. It is estimated that Liu Chunhai was chasing Geng Hao's car at the time, and Geng Hao made a sudden turn in a panic, or he was pushed from behind by Liu Chunhai during the turn. Suddenly, the car lost control and hit the wall directly. This knocked Geng Hao and Sister Gu unconscious and lost the ability to resist, Liu Chunhai took the opportunity to snatch them away."

"Have they been to that western restaurant before?" Han Yin asked immediately.

"I've been there, they always have dinner there these days." Du Yingxiong said.

"Is this the only way to go back?" Han Yin continued to ask.

"It should be said that it is a shortcut. Anyone who goes to a western restaurant to eat, Geng Hao will take this road when he comes back." Du Yingxiong said.

"Yes." Zhang Shijie also nodded, and pointed to the distance, "Go west along this street to the end, turn north again, and drive for another ten minutes to Sunshine Garden."

"That is to say, Liu Chunhai used private detectives to lure away the protection team, and at the same time lured Geng Hao and Team Leader Gu to leave the restaurant, and then waited for an opportunity to hijack them on the way. It's a good move!" Han Yin gritted his teeth and sighed. road.

"He probably discovered that we have deployed a heavy police force in Sunshine Garden, so he can only use this risky method." Zhang Shijie raised his eyes and glanced at Han Yin, and asked tentatively, "Withdraw all the people from all surveillance points and spread them to the police station." Let's check the passing vehicles on the street, I don't know if it's too late?"

Han Yin heard that there was emotion in his words, but he was actually blaming Du Yingxiong for not only being tricked by Liu Chunhai, but also repeatedly delaying the timing of the investigation.As Du Yingxiong himself said, if he finds a suspected target and seeks support immediately, nothing will happen later.Besides, even if you find out that the driver is not Liu Chunhai, and you can report the situation immediately, it will still be useful to organize the police to set up barriers and investigate at that time. With Liu Chunhai's previous planning ability in committing crimes, it is estimated that he has escaped to the police beforehand. Find a good hiding place.

But you have to try to see if it works, and there is no other way at the moment, Han Yin thought for a while and said, "Look at the arrangement! Where is the so-called private detective?"

Du Yingxiong knew that the latter words were for himself, so he quickly responded, "Cuffed in my car!"

"Take it back to the team for careful examination, and then send a few people around to see if they can find any valuable clues. Contact the traffic police department, copy all the surveillance videos that can be collected around, and ask Xiaomei to look for suspicious vehicles .” Han Yin gave a series of instructions.

Section No.14 is shown in the figure
Zhongbei Community is adjacent to Sunshine Garden. In fact, the two communities originally belonged to an old urban area in the east of Xizhou City. However, Sunshine Garden was developed earlier, and Zhongbei Community was involved in the overall relocation of a large state-owned cement factory until not long ago. The construction of the community has just been completed.Therefore, although the road conditions in this area are not bad, there are basically no people, there are not many passing vehicles, and the surveillance cameras have not yet been put into use. It can be said that it is difficult to find witnesses.It is very wise for Liu Chunhai to choose such a location to commit crimes.

According to the further account of the private detective: He received the entrustment call three days ago. The client said that his wife was having an affair and hoped that the private detective could help him take photos of his wife dating her lover.But what is strange is that the client did not disclose his wife's background information, nor does he need a private detective to follow up closely. He just asked him to stop other cases at hand, keep his mobile phone unblocked, and wait for calls at any time.The client also specially emphasized that his wife's lover has a very powerful background, and this case may be dangerous to a certain extent. He urged the private detective to be vigilant at all times, and to do his best to escape if he found something abnormal.Of course, since it is a high-risk commission, there will inevitably be a high remuneration. The client said that he would pay 1 yuan in advance, and then pay 2 yuan after the case is successfully concluded.Although the private detective was a little apprehensive, but for Qian's sake, he still bit the bullet and took the case.But how could he have imagined that last night when he received a text message from his client and rushed to Liyuan Western Restaurant as quickly as possible, he would become an accomplice in a kidnapping case...

Ai Xiaomei found out that the phone number used to call the private detective was a temporary mobile phone number, and the GPS function was not turned on. The nearest transmission tower was located near Wuchang Road when the first call was made, which was only two streets away from the residential area where Geng Hao lived. .At the same time, it was found that the 1 yuan prepaid to the private detective was also directly deposited in cash into the private detective's credit card account through an ATM near Wuchang Road.The surveillance video of the ATM machine was retrieved. The depositor was wearing a hat and a mask and could not see his face clearly. It must be Liu Chunhai.This number was used for the second time, that is, when the SMS command was sent last night, the nearest transmission tower was located on a building near the Liyuan Western Restaurant. This transmission tower also covered the area where the incident occurred last night.The mobile phone is currently turned off, but the above signs show that Liu Chunhai seems to have been lurking around Geng Hao.

The Trace Inspection Division conducted an overnight survey of the vehicle and the scene of the accident. Based on the tire marks extracted at the scene and the impact marks on the rear of Geng Hao's body, it was deduced that Liu Chunhai should have been driving a domestic black small car when committing the crime.Based on such a clue, Ai Xiaomei identified the vehicle that was photographed by traffic surveillance on the main road near Zhongbei Community last night before and after the incident, and initially locked a black car with the license plate "SXD4558".Police report records show the car was stolen a week ago.

Subsequently, the city's large-scale search for suspected vehicles began immediately.At 6 o'clock in the morning, the suspect vehicle was found at an alley 5 kilometers away from the crime scene.There were bloodstains on the car, but the car was empty. Obviously Liu Chunhai changed the car here, so the clues were completely interrupted.

It is now 10 o'clock in the morning, and it has been nearly 12 hours since Gu Feifei and Geng Hao disappeared. If it is an ordinary kidnapping case, it should be said that it is still within the prime time for investigation. The problem is that the kidnapper is a serial killer who has been involved in many bloody cases. , especially judging from his previous sloppy crime style, I am afraid that the two of them are already in danger.

In the small conference room, Ai Xiaomei and Du Yingxiong both looked anxious, and they were drawing on the white analysis board.The two of them had just recorded all the known clues on the whiteboard, hoping to find out the possible flaws Liu Chunhai might have left behind through intuitive and three-dimensional observation.Zhang Shijie was even more like an ant on a hot pot, with red eyes and hoarse voice, he kept shouting to the search teams ahead through the walkie-talkie.Han Yin still looked the same, with a calm face, sitting in front of a large pile of files.In his opinion, there is still time, and he believes that Liu Chunhai will enjoy the pleasure of torturing Gu Feifei and Geng Hao to the maximum, otherwise why did he take them away from the crash site last night, wouldn't it be a one-and-done thing if he just killed them?
Of course, even so, it doesn't mean that much time can be wasted. As a profiling expert, Han Yin really wants to use his expertise to find a shortcut for the search and arrest operation.The general explanation of criminal psychology profile is actually to deduce various background information of criminals through scientific analysis of criminal behavior.Of course, this also includes personality and preferences, so profiling experts all uphold a point of view-behavior reflects personality.Then, conversely, personality determines behavior, that is to say, the way of acting will be very different due to the difference in personality of each person.So from last night's incident to the present, Han Yin has been trying to "deduce" Liu Chunhai's choice by comprehensively analyzing Liu Chunhai's personality characteristics, combining all the criminal information he has so far, plus his perspective and way of thinking. The escape route and direction, as well as the hiding place that he thinks is safe and has a certain degree of psychological comfort.

……

At this moment, Han Yin has repeatedly read Liu Chunhai's background information and criminal materials, and analyzed each criminal link one by one, but he has not found any direction or idea that can narrow the scope of the search. On the contrary, his doubts are getting more and more serious. many.And when he tried to connect these questions together to examine, a bold idea popped up in his head: Is Liu Chunhai really capable of making such a series of astonishing cases?Will he be a carefully crafted "scapegoat"?
Judging from the current situation alone, Liu Chunhai has clearly seen through the police's "entrapment plan", and he should also be aware of the police force deployment, including the main monitoring area of ​​Sunshine Garden and the dynamics of the protection team, so he will use private detectives to lure Drive Du Yingxiong and others, and snatch Gu Feifei and Geng Hao from halfway.This also means that the crime has escalated, and the persecution and torture of Geng Hao can no longer satisfy Liu Chunhai's desire. He needs a bigger platform - to confront the police, to seek a higher level of control and sense of accomplishment.This is also in line with the process of abnormal psychological development.

However, why was Liu Chunhai able to grasp the dynamics of the police, Geng Hao and Chen Nan, but the police couldn't catch a trace of him?If one had to find a reason, it was possible that Liu Chunhai had placed a positioning tool in Geng Hao's cell phone or belongings.So now Geng Hao's whole body has been taken away, this assumption must not be proven.But even if this is the case, many coincidences are needed for Liu Chunhai to successfully complete last night's action goal.

Based on last night's case, Liu Chunhai adopted an ambush strategy.In other words, he may have been familiar with Geng Hao and Chen Nan's consistent dinner location, route and environment through several follow-ups earlier, and then worked out a kidnapping plan based on this route.When Geng Hao and Chen Nan followed this route for dinner again last night, Liu Chunhai felt that the time was right, so he avoided the traffic surveillance, drove the car from the small road into the Zhongbei Community and set up an ambush, and then called the private detective to the opposite side of the restaurant to distract the protection team , and finally sat and waited for the desperate Geng Hao to enter his ambush area to complete the crime.This is a relatively reasonable logic. Judging from the current clues, it can only be reasoned in this way, but how can he guarantee that the private detective can successfully lure the protection team away?More importantly, how could he be sure that Geng Hao would return by the same route?

Of course, in terms of results, Liu Chunhai succeeded.There may be an element of luck in this; it may also be because of the long-term follow-up that he has grasped Geng Hao's temper and disposition; or his own judgment, planning ability, and execution ability are indeed outstanding.Then look back and look at the four previous crimes committed by him, which can also be said to be very successful. There were no witnesses, and almost no traces could be traced during the complicated crime process. Geng Hao was once used to successfully obscure the police. case line of sight.In short, if all these successful crimes really came from Liu Chunhai, then he is simply too powerful, he can be called a master of masters!

However, when Han Yin examines such a strong opponent from a dialectical point of view, he suddenly discovers a logical loophole—if Liu Chunhai is really so powerful, how could he completely expose his image as a criminal to others? What about the police?Han Yin seemed to feel a black hand who couldn't see his face clearly, and pushed Liu Chunhai to the police bit by bit behind Liu Chunhai's back...

First, through the migrant workers who bought books, they exposed the lame features to the police; then, before raping and killing Geng Hao’s manager, they deliberately collided with a guilty adulterer, so as to strengthen the image of the murderer’s lameness; The scene, on the surface, was used to convey the information of the next victim, but in fact it was to coincide with Liu Chunhai's good painting skills; There was an intersection between Liu Yuqin, which led the police to follow the vine and focus on Liu Chunhai; finally, using Liu Chunjiang's confession, he explained that Liu Chunhai and Yu Zuuoguo might have had close contact in the mental hospital, so as to eliminate Liu Chunhai. How did Chunhai grasp the mystery of the murderer's secret actions in the unsolved case back then, so as to confirm the suspicion of Liu Chunhai's crime.

Then, if it is said that someone carefully designed the police to regard Liu Chunhai as the murderer, then this person must be very familiar with Liu Chunhai.Of course, in terms of familiarity, his brother Liu Chunjiang must be the No. 1 choice, but he was proved early on to have nothing to do with the case; the second should be Liu Yuqin, but she, as the victim, is even less likely to be the black hand behind the scenes.Who else?

Han Yin took off the glasses on the bridge of his nose and put them on the table, closed his eyes and rubbed his temples with both hands. At this moment, his brain was trying to trace the clues left by every figure that appeared in the whole case... Finally, when When the image of a person floated in his mind, he suddenly opened his eyes, and then there was a complex emotion in his eyes - extremely cold, and seemed to be a little bit melancholy.

Then Han Yin did two things.

The first thing: He copied a sound clip of Zhang Shijie's interrogation of Geng Hao, then went straight to Xinle Community, found Aunt Wang who lived in Building 93, who was lucky to escape the rape and murder because her wife happened to be at home, and asked her Listen to this clip of the interrogation with your partner.However, because the time is too long, the old couple can only say that the voices are a bit similar, but they are not completely sure.In other words, the two elders did not deny it, which gave Han Yin great hope.

The second thing: After leaving the Xinle community, Han Yin immediately went to the fitness club and found Dongzi, the lover and fitness coach of Geng Hao's manager Tian Shuang.He is going to do a cognitive interview with Dongzi.Han Yin has used this method many times in previous cases.He let Dongzi empty his mind, completely relax his emotions, and used psychological hints to lead Dongzi back to the scene when he collided with the suspect at the corridor entrance of Tian Shuang's house.Through inspiration and description, I hope Dongzi can recall some sounds, smells, or information that has been seen but not paid attention to by the brain, etc.

Sure enough, Dongzi, with his eyes slightly closed, narrated a detail that had not been mentioned before: "I collided with that man wearing a sports cap at the entrance of the corridor. He was taller than me and hit my shoulder. There was a slight stagger. I glanced back at him, and he was limping towards the stairs. He swayed to the left at first, and it felt like his left leg was limping, but when he stepped on the steps, he was limping again. It started leaning to the right, and it made me think it was his right leg that was limping, which was really baffling."

The details that Dongzi can't understand are exactly what Han Yin needs most. It not only shows that the lame man is pretending to be a normal person, but more importantly, it shows that the person pretending to be a "left-handed person".Why do you say that?Liu Chunhai has a disability in his right leg. Of course, it is no problem for a left-handed person to deliberately imitate him at a normal pace frequency, but if a sudden movement breaks the rhythm, he will instinctively choose to continue in the most comfortable way immediately. to imitate.So after colliding with Dongzi, the man in the sports cap initially showed that the lame leg was his left leg. It was not until he stepped on the stairs that he realized that he had made a mistake in the direction of the lame leg, so Quickly made the corresponding adjustments.And Geng Hao is a "left-handed person". Han Yin noticed this as early as the interview in the coffee shop...

Han Yin returned to the detachment compound, seeing Du Yingxiong and Ai Xiaomei standing at the door discussing something, Han Yin went up to say hello and asked what they were doing, and they said they were going to call him, so Han Yin sent the two of them together. The person pulled to a secluded place and said: "I think the direction and goal of our current investigation may be wrong. What we are looking for should not be Liu Chunhai, but Geng Hao!"

Han Yin paused for a moment, seeing that the two were not as surprised as he imagined, thinking that they didn't understand what he said, he said with emphasis: "Geng Hao is the perpetrator of this series of cases, he probably heard Liu Yuqin mention Liu Chunhai Perhaps it was precisely because he learned from Liu Yuqin that Liu Chunhai and Yu Zuuoguo had lived in the same mental hospital, and that the two had the same admission time, that they had the perfect inspiration and scapegoat for committing the crime, so he planned This series of unimaginable crimes!"

As soon as Han Yin finished speaking, Du Yingxiong and Ai Xiaomei quickly met each other's eyes, and then Ai Xiaomei said excitedly: "Let's think about it together. I discussed with Yingxiong for a long time, and I also think that Geng Hao has a big problem." !"

"Oh, is that so?" Han Yin was a little surprised at first, and then asked with great interest, "Tell me about how you figured it out."

"It's actually not that complicated. We just use relatively primitive detection methods to re-examine the case from the original point of the case, looking for a way to break through the 'bottleneck'. However, when we look at the entire case, we have a vague feeling: everything Everything seems to start with Geng Hao's new book." Du Yingxiong said confidently, "We don't have any evidence for this accusation, but it is obvious that it is indeed Geng Hao's new book, which makes the suspicious case many years ago once again become a reality. The hot topic in the society also made the task force notice his knowledge of the '3' case, and his fingerprints were on the CD-ROM mailed to the detachment, which gave the task force a reason to detain him. Then with the help of such a Due to this opportunity, Geng Hao took the initiative to involve Sister Gu in the case; with the development of the case, clues appeared that the murderer was targeting him, so he changed from a suspect to a victim; As a bait to catch the murderer, the so-called "trapping plan" was born; he also chose the location of the dinner; he disappeared with Sister Gu in the end... So listed, Xiaomei and I found that the whole In the incident, Geng Hao was present in every link, which is definitely not a coincidence, it is more like a well-designed one. In addition, Geng Hao's height is also in line with the identification of Dongzi and Fang Damin."

"Also, I recalled a detail that made me feel particularly suspicious." Ai Xiaomei added, "When investigating Geng Hao's social relations, Sister Gu and I asked him if he had any enemies. He denied it at first. , but when we mentioned Liu Yuqin's name, his attitude changed immediately, and he hurriedly said that Song Ping and a so-called fan had had conflicts with him. When we searched in these two directions, Liu Yuqin Killed. So think about it carefully, the suspect Geng Hao threw out in a hurry was to distract my sister Gu and me from paying attention to Liu Yuqin, and to buy himself time to kill Liu Yuqin."

"The analysis is good. The methods we used are similar, but the focus is different. I reviewed Liu Chunhai's behavior clues in the entire case, and deduced Geng Hao through the method of elimination. I have met Dongzi and Aunt Wang... "Han Yin roughly explained his own analysis ideas.

"But we can't figure out his motive for committing the crime. Is it targeting Sister Gu?" Ai Xiaomei asked, frowning, "Geng Hao is in very good condition and his career is at its peak. Absurd and perverted behavior. Especially since he and Sister Gu have been separated for many years, even if they may not have had a good time back then, there is no reason to do such absurd things to get revenge, right?"

"I think it should have something to do with your sister Gu." Han Yin hesitated for a moment, raised his hand to support the glasses frame, with a trace of embarrassment on his face, and said in a rare hesitant tone, "Maybe it's not just about breaking up back then, maybe ...Maybe what else happened between them, only they know."

"How do you tell Team Zhang?" Du Yingxiong scratched his head and asked with a look of embarrassment.

"Team Zhang can no longer fully control the current situation. The entire Xizhou police are on the move. The bureau leaders personally give instructions. It is unlikely that we will completely deny all the previous work done by the task force because of our abstract analysis. So I I think it’s a strategic point, don’t be in a hurry to tell the whole story, just tell Team Zhang to let them cooperate with us to investigate Geng Hao’s situation, and see if we can find clues to lead Liu Chunhai.” Han Yin thought for a while, and then ordered "Now we have to go to Geng Hao's house to search thoroughly again, and carefully review all his recent activities, communication records, financial information, and property status. The focus is on real estate information, including his family and relatives. See Does he have an unknown whereabouts? If not, quickly check his social interactions again..."

In the evening, the case finally had a breakthrough.

In terms of real estate, Geng Hao's parents and sister each have a house in the local area. In addition to Geng Hao's residence, Du Yingxiong and Ai Xiaomei took people to search, but nothing was found.However, Han Yin learned from a friend of Geng Hao that when Geng Hao started his company, a client owed him a sum of money, which eventually paid him a villa with a courtyard in the Qianyeshanzhuang community in the western suburbs.Geng Hao wanted to sell it to this friend years ago, but he didn't know why he didn't sell it. As for the specific building number, this friend couldn't tell.

Most of the villas built in the suburbs of the city, such as Chiba Villa, have no state-owned property rights procedures, the prices are relatively cheap, and the corresponding registration cannot be found by the housing management center.Most of the purchasers are for investment or pension purposes. Of course, there are some criminals who take the opportunity to hide their property, so in fact the occupancy rate of the community has always been very low. In addition, the single building and single courtyard are highly concealed, which is an extreme challenge for Geng Hao. Good place to stay.

In addition, Du Yingxiong and Ai Xiaomei found out that Geng Hao's sister had a white Nissan car registered under her name. Regarding the clues of the villa, the two checked the traffic surveillance outside the urban area. The time of the car was roughly 40 minutes after the incident last night...

end
In the dead of night, there was no sound, and the dark villas stood on the side of the mountain, looking particularly lonely.But vaguely, there is still a beam of dim light coming out, like a ghost lamp, strange and inexplicable.

Neat living room, soft lighting, quiet piano music from the stereo, it is the famous My Heart Will Go On ("My Heart Will Go On"), sad, tactful notes, passed into the ears, poured into the bottom of my heart, There is an indescribable etherealness and beauty, which is her and his favorite track.Everything is so familiar, and his back standing in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows is so clear, time seems to go back many years ago, back to the cozy cabin where she and him were far away on the other side of the ocean...

Gu Feifei struggled to open her eyes, her head was heavy, and there was still a burst of pain, her mouth was salty, and her nose was filled with the smell of blood.She wanted to move her body, but she couldn't move at all. She turned her eyes, only to find that she was entangled in ropes and tightly bound to a big armchair.She tried to raise her head, and gradually saw a pair of feet to a familiar figure from the back.

It turned out that it wasn't a dream, that figure from behind...it really was him!Gu Feifei's heart trembled for a moment, she closed her eyes hard and opened them again, as if she couldn't believe that she had woken up from a dream, but she knew that she had to accept the reality.She turned to the back in front of the window and said weakly, "It's you? You planned all this? So, you already knew about the bow tie in stockings?"

"You're awake." Geng Hao turned around slowly, holding a glass of red wine in his hand, with a band-aid on his face and a pleasant smile on his face, and said noncommittally, "Do you really think those people can keep the secret? The police at the police station , Patrolman, criminal policeman, forensic doctor, trace inspector... so many people have been to the scene, how could they all keep their mouths shut. Anyway, we are finally together now."

"Do you think we are together like this?" Gu Feifei took a deep breath, raised her eyes and glared at Geng Hao, and said sarcastically, "You have done so many sinful deeds, will I be with you?"

"Of course I can. You are mine and will always be mine. I can do anything for you!" Geng Hao put the goblet in his hand on the side coffee table, walked up to Gu Feifei and squatted down, with a nervous expression on his face. The appearance said, "Do you know? I didn't think so before, but when I was about to marry Yuqin, I realized that I had never forgotten you, and I realized how important you are to me."

"Hmph, are you the Geng Hao I know? It's come to this point, you still want to be so hypocritical?" Gu Feifei snorted coldly, then leaned forward, met Geng Hao's gaze without fear, and asked a series of questions Said, "You just can't stand rejection, right? The higher your status, the more you can't bear other people's 'disobedience' to you, right? It has nothing to do with me that you repented on the wedding registration day. You chose to get back together with Yuqin just to be cruel. Dump her once, take revenge on her once, to relieve the hatred she left you at the beginning, right? This makes you feel very happy, so you decide to take revenge on all the people who made you feel frustrated. Of course, among them I'm the one most worthy of revenge. But I don't understand, is it necessary for you to spend so much time and let so many people be buried with me?"

"Hmph." Geng Hao also snorted twice, and remained silent for a while, stalking his neck, still looking nervous, and said, "I'm thinking about what your bullshit police boyfriend is doing. He's still chasing Liu Chunhai. Right? Don’t you regard him as a treasure? Isn’t he the best policeman in your eyes? So what, isn’t he being tricked by me?”

"You..." Gu Feifei was at a loss for words for a while, she really didn't expect Geng Hao to be so crazy, not only to take revenge on her, but also to challenge Han Yin, then how will he deal with Han Yin next?Gu Feifei couldn't help taking a deep breath, and asked tentatively, "How do you want to end the matter now?"

"Don't worry, I won't touch your precious boyfriend. I will let him never know where you are for the rest of his life. I want him to live in the shadow of losing you all his life. Not only him, but also me in the whole world Knowing where you are, thinking of this, I feel very satisfied. Hahahaha..." Geng Hao straightened up and laughed wildly, then suddenly fell silent, and said with a grim expression, "You know Jack and Rose (the man and woman in the movie "Titanic") Why can the love of the main character be eternal? That’s because Jack died. I will also make our love eternal, so you have two choices, either be eaten by the big wolf dog in my yard like Liu Chunhai, or I buried him under the newly planted banyan tree. Of course, first of all we have to talk about the old days..."

While speaking, Geng Hao approached Gu Feifei. He tore off the buttons of Gu Feifei's shirt, revealing her pink bra. He looked obscenely at her eyes, then took Gu Feifei's face with both hands, and shamelessly licked it back and forth with his tongue. Gu Feifei's cheek.Gu Feifei closed her eyes in humiliation, tears welling up unconsciously.When Geng Hao abnormally licked her tears with his tongue and tried to kiss her lips, she suddenly opened her eyes, bit Geng Hao's tongue, and bit down with all her strength.Geng Hao wailed loudly in an instant, and at the same time knocked Gu Feifei and her chair to the ground with a punch.Seeing the sneering Gu Feifei lying on the ground biting his tongue, he was completely enraged, he swung his fists like crazy and hit Gu Feifei in the face violently, and then frantically A burst of kicks...

... Gradually, Gu Feifei couldn't feel the pain anymore. She felt that her whole body seemed to be floating up, her eyes could not be controlled, and slowly closed, and the whole world gradually dimmed.At this moment, she vaguely heard a loud noise and a roar that followed...

hospital.

Ai Xiaomi frowns and walks in the corridor, looking in with concern through the square glass on the door of the ward from time to time.Du Yingxiong sat on a bench beside him, gnashing his teeth angrily, rubbing his fists back and forth, his whole body bursting with anger.

After a while, Ai Xiaomi also sat on the bench, sighed for a while, and then said with emotion: "Compared to the perverted killers we met before, criminals with high IQ like Geng Hao are actually more terrifying. Sister Gu is so shrewd." A person, who has been with him for so long, didn't even see any flaws!"

"The dog bastard, he is the most perverted pervert, he should have been punished just now in the villa." Du Yingxiong gritted his teeth and said bitterly.

"Come on, if you hit him again, you have to beat him to death." After Ai Xiaomei finished speaking, she quickly ordered, "You can't be impulsive when you return to the team later, don't let that kid's lawyer catch him! "

"I know, I'm just talking about it, but I feel very uncomfortable, like..." Du Yingxiong frowned, sucked his nose hard, and said, "Actually, for a long time, Sister Gu has always been the same as that in martial arts novels in my eyes." That little dragon girl is as pure as ice and snow, cold and aloof, with a sacred and inviolable beauty. Of course, it doesn’t mean that I have any thoughts about her, but a feeling. It’s really disgusting for Geng Hao to come out like this, I The feeling now is the same as when the little dragon girl in the book was defiled by the Quanzhen stinky Taoist Yin Zhiping, I really want to kill that pervert."

"Don't talk nonsense, it's not up to that point." Ai Xiaomei patted him on the shoulder and comforted him.

In the ward, Gu Feifei finally woke up from a coma. She turned her head slightly and saw Han Yin sitting beside the bed. Her first reaction was to sob silently.This may be Gu Feifei's first time crying in public. Han Yin, who was already clumsy in a relationship between a man and a woman, didn't know how to comfort her for a while, so she couldn't stop wiping her tears.

Gu Feifei sobbed for a while, raised her hand to hold Han Yin's hand, and said with a choked voice, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, it's all because of me that I killed so many people."

Han Yin took Gu Feifei's hand to his mouth, kissed it lightly, and said softly: "Don't be stupid, we can't control what other people want to do, you are just being used, Geng Hao's paranoia and narcissism That is the original sin."

"No, really, I should really say sorry to you." Gu Feifei struggled to sit up, and apologetically pressed her cheek to Han Yin's hand holding her, and said, "As I said before, at the beginning of the year The chance encounter with Geng Hao at a friend’s party should have been deliberately arranged by him. In fact, the next day he asked me out alone again, and begged me to get back together with him, but I refused. I’m afraid you’ll think too much, I’m sorry Let me tell you, if you had confessed before, maybe you would have been able to detect Geng Hao's scheming long ago."

"It's over, don't torture yourself with such assumptions anymore." Han Yin held Gu Feifei's face in his hands, looked into her eyes affectionately, and said sincerely, "I really don't care what man you meet in private. You don't have to tell me anything, you just need to let me know that your heart is always with me."

When Han Yin said so, Gu Feifei shed tears again, this time with a smile.Immediately, the two hugged each other tightly, silently feeling the moment of happiness after the catastrophe...

"How did you suddenly turn your suspicion on Geng Hao?" Gu Feifei buried her face in Han Yin's chest and asked in a murmur.

Han Yin stroked her hair lovingly, and said: "Conan Doyle has a famous saying, you should know it? That is 'Eliminate all the impossible, and the rest, no matter how impossible, is the truth'!"
