Chapter 9 Killer City

Chapter 9 Killer City

Darkness cannot drive away darkness, only light can!
--Martin Luther King
wedge
The night wind is bleak, the waning moon is gloomy, and thick black clouds are cruising in the sky, like a group of terrifying ghosts with teeth and claws.And under the evil gaze of the ghost, an inexplicable horrifying aura emerges from the gloomy night, as if every creature on the earth may become a prey to be captured at any time.

The sound of high-heeled shoes resounded on the quiet street. A woman in a blue-purple miniskirt was crossing the road. Her two plump, fair legs danced briskly, looking extremely sexy and seductive.

The woman crossed the road and came to an alley. Looking at the dark and deep alley, a strong uneasiness suddenly rose in her heart.She hesitated for a moment, and decided to give up the shortcut leading to her rental house and choose to return by the main road. Although that was a bit detoured, it would be safer.

In early spring and April, it is the time when the spring is cold, and the women wear very little, so they have to squeeze their bodies and hold their arms tightly to resist the cold.She lowered her head and walked west along the street, when suddenly there was the sound of quick and light footsteps behind her, she was about to turn her head to check, when she felt a heavy blow on the cheek, and her body jumped out as if being pulled by a rope , fell heavily to the ground, and fainted immediately.In a haze, she felt her body moving slowly, and then a biting cold came from her throat...

The same night, the same alley, about an hour later.

A taxi with a body painted in blue and white patterns slowly parked on the side of the street, the car turned off, the driver quickly got out of the car, walked around the front of the car and walked quickly to the entrance of the alley.The business was surprisingly good that night, and there were always passengers getting on the bus just after the previous passenger got off the bus, so that the driver didn't have time to take care of himself for most of the night.At this time, the driver impatiently untied his belt, but the more anxious he became, the more chaotic he became, the zipper of his trousers got stuck and he couldn't pull it down, and the mobile phone in his trouser pocket rang again inappropriately.He frantically freed one hand to take out the mobile phone, but he couldn't believe that he accidentally lost it and the mobile phone fell to the ground. This is a new mobile phone he bought for 3000 yuan.He was so distressed that he didn't care about the urgency to urinate, so he quickly squatted down to pick it up.I saw the light from the big screen of the mobile phone, reflecting a bloody and horrifying scene - a woman who was almost completely naked, lying on her back on the ground, with a puddle of blood on her lower body, a big hole in her stomach, and her intestines flung around her body... …

The depth of the night was pierced by a piercing scream, and the urine flowed down the driver's trousers to the ground...

Section [-] Serious Case Support
Directorate General of Criminal Investigation, Serious Case Support Department.

Gu Feifei stepped out of the elevator. The exquisite black high heels did not hinder her from taking a vigorous step. She was wearing a dark-colored branded slim-fit professional attire, matched with fashionable and neat short hair, and her usual cold and sharp eyes, making her look heroic and powerful. Lost the charm of women.

Gu Feifei stopped in front of an office at the end of the corridor. Unlike other offices, there was no number plate on the door of this office.She raised her hand and knocked on the door twice, and when she heard the response from inside, she pushed the door open and walked in.

"Morning, Mr. Wu, are you looking for me?" Gu Feifei stood upright, with her hands crossed in front of her stomach, and she looked respectful and dignified.Behind the opposite desk, an old man with gray temples was sitting at his desk reviewing a file.

It's rare for Gu Feifei to put on such a respectful gesture.Everyone in the Criminal Investigation Bureau knows that she is noble by nature and full of arrogance in her bones. There are not many people who can make her so awe-inspiring. Even the chief of the bureau is rarely treated like this. Presumably the "Ms. Wu" she calls is definitely not an ordinary person.

Indeed, this kind and seemingly ordinary old man has the most prominent qualifications in the police field. He is the first generation of criminal investigation experts trained by the new China. He has participated in almost all major cases registered by the Criminal Investigation Bureau. Wu Guoqing, the so-called First-Class Police Superintendent.

Wu Guoqing is 70 years old and has been rehired by the Criminal Investigation Bureau as the chief consultant since his retirement.About a year ago, he was tasked with forming a rapid-response serious crime unit called Serious Case Support.Its main function is to provide the most timely guidance and assistance for serious and difficult cases in various provinces and cities; at the same time, it also trains and reserves talents for the public security front in the new century to deal with the increasingly serious public security issues brought about by the diversified development of society. Security Question.There are many teams under this department, and the composition of the personnel adopts old and new, which gathers elites from various fields such as forensic medicine, trace inspection, behavior analysis, network technology, criminal investigation, etc., as well as promising newcomers.Although Wu Guoqing is at the helm of the department, he has no specific administrative title because he has already retired. He himself takes this aspect very lightly, so people in the whole department call him teacher.In fact, in China's criminal investigation circle, he is qualified to be anyone's teacher.

"Yes, you sit first." Hearing the movement, Wu Guoqing raised his head, took off his reading glasses, pointed to the reception sofa, and said gently, "Xiao Gu, I came here to let you see the information of the new team members !"

"New team members? Why? Where's my old one?" Gu Feifei asked in surprise, her eyes widening.

"They've been transferred to another team!" Wu Guoqing thought about it, and said earnestly, "Xiao Gu, it's hard to find someone like you in the bureau who is proficient in forensic medicine and trace inspection, and even talented in criminal investigation." Many, so not long after you came, we set up a group for you. Of course, your achievements are obvious to all, and the bureau leaders and local units are very satisfied. It’s just that you have too strong a personality, and you don’t usually pay attention to communicating with the team members. It all reflects that you are too conceited, and you can't fully respect and trust your subordinates, so you can't cooperate anymore. Earlier they jointly made a request to transfer the team, and their attitude was firm. You also know that those who can come to us are elites. As a leader, it doesn’t make sense to lose sight of the other, so you have to understand my difficulties.”

"What about the information of the new team members?" Gu Feifei asked calmly.

"Ah... oh, here it is." Wu Guoqing froze for a moment, then hastily picked up two folders with blue covers on the table, and handed them to Gu Feifei.

Gu Feifei took it, opened the top one, and watched silently.Wu Guoqing looked at her with a puzzled expression on his face, thinking: I thought that Gu Feifei might feel a little embarrassed and annoyed when she heard the news of being fired collectively by her subordinates, and at least she had to argue for herself.But unexpectedly, people didn't take it seriously at all, not even a turning point in emotion!What is this girl's heart made of?Is it really the same as the people below said, her mind is all on work, and she doesn't bother to care about worldly things at all?

Wu Guoqing was feeling secretly in his heart, and Gu Feifei had almost read the documents in her hand, so she put the folder back on the table and said simply: "Just the two of them!"

"You really want it?" Wu Guoqing was surprised again. He knew the qualifications of these two newcomers very well: although the male police officer had several years of experience in the police force, he was sent to the special police department as soon as he graduated. After training, he was then assigned to work as an undercover agent in a major drug cartel.Although he ultimately excels at the assignment, he has no experience in murder cases of any kind.He was able to be transferred to the support department. On the one hand, it was an organizational protection for him, and on the other hand, it was also a kind of promotion for him. Of course, there was also his own wishes.What Wu Guoqing valued was his kung fu foundation and perseverance.The other female police officer is a fresh graduate who has just been assigned to the Criminal Investigation Bureau. She has a double bachelor's degree in "Information Science" and "Cyber ​​Law Enforcement", and her professional performance is very good.Young age and excellent comprehensive quality are the main factors why Wu Guoqing fell in love with her.Wu Guoqing wanted her here because she was preparing to be trained as a technical reserve talent.

However, pushing the two newcomers to Gu Feifei all at once was really too much.In fact, Wu Guoqing also took great pains. Gu Feifei's reputation among colleagues is really bad. Now everyone chooses to stay away from her. Some leaders in the bureau have even proposed to send her back to the place.But Wu Guoqing loves talents and is reluctant to let her go, and he can't let her be a bare-bones commander. It just so happened that the two children were too junior and no team was willing to take them, so they were simply combined together.He believes that his vision is not wrong. Although this is a young team, the efficiency of solving the case must not be low.

In fact, Gu Feifei was holding back her anger. If it was someone else, she would have slammed the door and left.But in the face of the respected Wu Guoqing, she didn't dare to make a mistake, so when she heard Wu Guoqing's emphatic question, she said with resentment: "Yes, I want someone, but when a team like ours goes to a place, people will Do you feel that our support department does not pay enough attention to their case?"

"Don't worry about it, I will explain it, and your ability is very recognized by the local unit, so they shouldn't look down on you!" Wu Guoqing probably felt that he still owed Gu Feifei a little, so he said sincerely, "What do you want? You can also bring it up, and I will try my best to arrange it.”

Hearing what Wu Guoqing said, Gu Feifei was slightly stunned for a while, and then hesitated and said: "I...can I choose a criminal psychologist from the local area to join my team, I guarantee that he is very good."

"Yes!" Wu Guoqing said without hesitation, but quickly realized, "You are talking about Han Yin, right? I have read the case file of this guy, and it is indeed very good. I wish for it! It is a pity that he rejected the invitation from the bureau. .”

"It's easy to handle. Although he refused earlier, he also promised that as long as I need it..." Gu Feifei noticed that the wording was inappropriate, and quickly changed her words, "As long as the support department needs it, he will definitely help. We You can cooperate with him on a single case, and if you encounter a case caused by personality distortion and need to use criminal profiling to lock the target, invite him to join in, do you think this is okay?"

"This is a good thing. I asked the Bureau to send a formal invitation letter to his unit immediately. As for his personal communication, you can figure it out yourself." Wu Guoqing smiled meaningfully, with a hint of teasing The tone said, "Since our support department has no temptation for him, let's take him down in another way!"

"Take what? I don't understand what you're talking about?" Gu Feifei blushed a little, "If you're all right, then I'm leaving?"

"Why is it all right! We have all the members of this team, let's handle the case quickly! I will notify the personnel of the two little guys and ask them to report to you immediately." Wu Guoqing took out a case file from the drawer and handed it to her.

"Okay, I'll go get ready now." Gu Feifei bypassed the white line on the file bag, opened the seal, took out the file from the inside and glanced at it, and walked to the door, her brows were tightly knit together.

Seeing Gu Feifei go out and close the door, Wu Guoqing shook his head with a smile. In fact, he could tell that she was a kind-hearted girl who was cold on the outside and warm on the inside.This kind of girl is often very dedicated, but her vision is also very high. He hopes that she can find a happy home as soon as possible, and he is very willing to create such conditions for her.

Gu Feifei returned to the office, just as her butt touched the chair, she heard several knocks on the door.After saying "Come in", she saw two young people, a man and a woman, walk in one after another.

He is tall, with strong arms and a masculine look between his brows. She is a tough and handsome boy; she is petite and has a playful ponytail. My feeling is just four words-youth is pressing.

The two walked in front of Gu Feifei, they both stood at attention and saluted, and the girl rushed to say, "Police officer Ai Xiaomei is reporting to you."

"Officer Du Yingxiong is reporting to you," the boy continued.

As soon as the boy finished speaking, before Gu Feifei could react, the girl called Ai Xiaomei gave a "puchi" and said to the boy, "Your name is so confident!"

The boy straightened his body and said solemnly: "Being a hero is my dream in life."

"Hee hee, can't you really hear it? I think your name is too rustic." Ai Xiaomei covered her mouth with a smirk.

"Is it dirt? I don't think so!"

……

Du Yingxiong looked like a simple and honest child, he was not angry at all when Ai Xiaomei teased him like this, instead he smirked along.But this little girl's film is too simple, like a blank sheet of paper, she needs to be trained carefully.Gu Feifei stared at Ai Xiaomei with a straight face, until she put away her smile in embarrassment and stood obediently at a loss, then said coldly: "My name is Gu Feifei, and we will be together from today on. It's time to work, you can call me Team Leader Gu, you can also call me Sister Gu, in short, you must obey my orders for everything at work, or leave immediately." Gu Feifei paused, her tone became more severe, and said: "Both of you are newcomers to the criminal investigation bureau, the support team, and even the police, but when you get to the place, you are the criminal investigation experts in their eyes, so you must restrain yourself, keep serious, don't talk nonsense, don't express opinions randomly, and even more You are not allowed to act privately, and you should communicate with me in time if you have any questions... Well, you have come at the right time, the task has just been assigned, you go back and make some preparations for a long-distance trip, and gather at the main entrance of the building in two hours, there will be a car Take us to the airport."

When they heard that they were about to go to the local area to perform support tasks, the two children looked excited, Du Yingxiong was eager to fight, and Ai Xiaomei looked forward to it, and asked: "Sister Gu, are we also like the American FBI?" Do you have your own plane?"

Gu Feifei gave her a blank look, and said angrily: "Give me the sister in the back, and she will be called Sister Gu. It sounds like she hasn't been weaned. What about the private plane, have you watched too many movies?"

When the plane was about to land at the airport, Han Yin also woke up from his dream, looked at the case email sent by Gu Feifei all the way, and at some point fell asleep in a daze, no surprise, he dreamed of his mother again.

For so many years, almost all of Han Yin's dreams cannot do without the figure of his mother.Maybe it was because she abandoned him back then, causing too much damage to his heart, and the heartbroken feeling when parting is always indelible!However, he was very clear about how he felt at the moment, and he had already forgiven his mother in his heart, and even felt a sense of gratitude. It was she who made him realize the cruelty of life early on, and shaped his character of not being surprised after repeated ups and downs.And then, the stepmother who protected him like an angel came, and his father's business flourished, getting bigger and bigger, and almost meeting all his material needs.As a result, his spiritual realm was sublimated, flat, calm, indifferent to fame and fortune, and he wanted to be a down-to-earth teacher of applied criminal psychology, not for anything else, just because he likes it!

Therefore, when the Criminal Investigation Bureau invited him to join the Serious Case Support Department, he declined without much consideration.Rather than becoming a full-time consultant in the highest management department of criminal investigation in the country, he is more willing to use his own theory and practice to train more talents in applied criminal psychology, so that this discipline can be more widely used in case detection be applied.

However, some things are like this. When you don't deliberately pursue it, it will come to you instead.Today, Han Yin is the youngest professor in the college and has also been appointed as the deputy director of the Criminal Psychology Department.And his outstanding performance in many major cases has also made him famous in the industry.Needless to say, he is very popular in the college. There is an endless stream of requests from ministers from inside and outside the province to give lectures and assist in handling cases. In addition, some educational variety shows and legal programs on TV stations often send invitations to him, which makes him feel a little nervous. Overwhelmed.

But at this time, when he received Gu Feifei's invitation to handle the case, he had to think about how to arrange the work at hand.After only being silent for half a minute, Gu Feifei on the other end of the phone became angry: "It's so easy for my aunt to open her mouth, you refuse to try!"

"Okay, okay, tell me the location, and I'll leave immediately to meet you. By the way, send the case information to my mailbox, and I'll take a look on the plane."

Hearing that Gu Feifei was angry, Han Yin didn't dare to delay any longer. He quickly agreed without even inquiring about the case in detail.He knew Gu Feifei's temper very well, and he always regarded himself as a noble person, so it was not easy to take the initiative to open his mouth. If he lost her face and pissed her off, she could go to the academy and handcuff him away.

But what to do with so much work on hand?It's easy to say in the academy, the leaders have always supported him, and with the invitation letter from the Criminal Investigation Bureau, the academy will definitely not stop him.The difficult thing is that he has already agreed to the invitation of a TV program. For this matter, the producer has "visited the thatched cottage three times" and specially made a special design for him in the program. If you tell him not to record it at this time, why not let him All their preparations were in vain?But there is no way, you have to push if you push, you have to push if you don't push, you can only push hard and tear your face, who let Gu Feifei be on the other end?Han Yin had no choice but to explain repeatedly to the TV station producer and apologize repeatedly, causing him to be suspected of playing big names.In the end, he couldn't argue anymore, so he had no choice but to say strongly: The reason why he couldn't participate in the recording program was because of a force majeure factor that suddenly appeared.

Section [-] "The Whore Killer"

Changtian City, with a permanent population of more than 100 million, is the prefecture-level city with the smallest population in Dongliao Province.Over the years, due to the limited geographical location and resources, urban construction and economy have been in a state of slow development and backwardness. Compared with some surrounding cities that are developing rapidly and changing rapidly, this small town seems to be a forgotten corner, revealing the vicissitudes of life. feel.

Gu Feifei and his party arrived in the evening, and regardless of the fatigue of the journey, they immediately held a meeting with the special case team to listen to the case briefing and the latest investigation progress.

The case happened in the early morning of April 4 (Sunday). A taxi driver found a female body when he was clearing his hand at an alley, and immediately called the police.

The deceased, Tang Qian, was 26 years old, a lady sitting in a karaoke hall.The autopsy report showed that there was a dragging injury on the leg and a severe fracture of the cheekbone on the right side of the face. The time of death was one hour before the body was found.Judging from the right-to-left circular knife edge on the neck, the murderer committed the crime from behind and was left-handed.The short skirt of the deceased was torn to the waist, the lower abdomen was cut open with a sharp instrument, the large intestine was pulled to the right shoulder, and the uterus and two kidneys were cut away.Judging from the wound and blood flow, it was a postmortem incision. The murder weapon can be determined to be a serrated single-edged knife about 30 cm long. The hard object that hit the cheekbone was confirmed to come from a round blunt instrument after repeated tests. No evidence of the murderer was found in all the evidence...

Corresponding to the backward urban development, the social atmosphere of Changtian City is relatively conservative and closed, with simple folk customs and good public security. Such a brutal murder case can be said to be rare in decades.Immediately after the incident, the Municipal Public Security Bureau set up a task force named "4" case.

Wu Bin then introduced the entire investigation thinking after the establishment of the task force:

"In view of the fact that the murderer did not take any property with him when he fled the crime scene, the motive of robbery was first ruled out; and after analyzing the behavioral characteristics of the murderer who cut up the corpse after the murder, the task force believed that it was an act of venting anger, so it was judged that the case may be A love murder or vendetta murder case, so a large number of police forces were deployed to investigate the social relationship of the deceased, but so far no valuable clues have been found. At present, the case has caused a very bad impact on this city. There are many rumors in the society, and the atmosphere of panic is getting stronger ..."

When Wu Bin said this, Gu Feifei, who had been listening for a long time, suddenly interrupted: "According to the rules, shouldn't the media avoid cases that affect stability?"

"It has nothing to do with the mainstream media, and the news came from the Internet with relatively loose supervision." Wu Bin explained in detail, "About a week after the incident, a post suddenly appeared on the forum of a portal website in this city. The person who posted the post claimed to be ' The murderer of the 4' case. We have no doubt that this post was made by the murderer, because he described the tragedy of the deceased in detail in the post, which is information that we have never released to the public. What worries us even more is that the murderer is in The post threatened to continue to kill people, which is why we asked for support."

"Have you traced the source of the post?" Gu Feifei asked.

"After checking, the post was sent from a computer in an Internet cafe near the murder scene, but no one could provide the information of the person who posted it," Wu Bin said.

"Aren't Internet cafes all monitored?" Gu Feifei asked again.

"It's broken." Wu Bin replied.

"Broken? How could it be such a coincidence?" Ai Xiaomei asked after her.

"Actually, it's not a coincidence. People who often go to Internet cafes know that the cameras in some Internet cafes are basically just decorations. The bosses either turn them off or deliberately break them, because there are many minors surfing the Internet in Internet cafes. They are afraid Leave evidence." Wu Bin explained.

……

At the end of the meeting, Wu Bin tried to talk to the colleagues in the support team, but Gu Feifei declined on the grounds that she had eaten on the plane, and she urged Wu Bin to go to the scene of the crime for on-the-spot investigation.

The crime took place under the jurisdiction of Yushan Sub-district, located in the west district of the city, where low-income earners and migrants live most densely in Changtian City.Looking around, the neighborhood is a desolate scene.The low and dilapidated buildings, the rough streets, and the overgrown square made Gu Feifei and others who had just arrived from the big city feel as if they had traveled back to the 80s and [-]s—this place was a veritable slum.

The scene of the crime was at the entrance of an alley, surrounded by dozens of narrow bungalows that looked like square boxes. The row of houses next to the street were various stores, most of which seemed to be closed down, with crooked signboards and abandoned interiors. with.The alley intersects with a main road that can pass four cars at the same time. The scenery on the other side of the road is completely different.Through the glass window, under the flashing neon lights, some scantily clad girls can be vaguely seen walking inside, and the deceased in the case was once one of them.

Gu Feifei was standing at the entrance of the alley and looking around, when suddenly a familiar figure walked out from the depths of the alley, which really surprised her - she hadn't seen him for a long time, he didn't change much, but he was a little thinner, and the bridge of his nose It was still the pair of black thick-rimmed glasses, and his signature gentle smile was on his face as always, and the indifference and gentleness revealed in the slightly melancholy eyes looked so familiar.

right!What Gu Feifei saw was Han Yin!I thought he would arrive the next day, but I didn't expect to meet him at the scene of the crime.It turned out that after Han Yin and Gu Feifei talked on the phone, they immediately contacted the leader to coordinate the work, and then rushed to the airport to catch the nearest flight.The journey was very smooth, the planes took off and landed on time, and on the contrary, they arrived in Nagata a while earlier than Gu Feifei and others who were delayed at the airport due to temporary air traffic control.After he got off the plane, he called Gu Feifei's cell phone and found that she was turned off. Guessing that she might still be on the plane, he simply took a taxi to the scene of the crime.

Gu Feifei, who is arrogant and unruly, meets Han Yin, who is introverted and calm, and it is doomed that it will be difficult for them to express their true emotions at any time, especially in front of everyone.So when we reunited after a long absence, there was only a momentary gaze and a simple handshake.

Gu Feifei introduced Han Yin to the team members and Wu Bin, greeted each other for a while, and then started the crime simulation.During the simulation, Gu Feifei introduced to Han Yin the specific identity of the deceased and the circumstances of the suspected murderer's postings on the Internet.

In this case, based on the results of the autopsy and the location of the scene, the scene of the crime can be easily restored: the deceased was walking on the side of the street, followed by the murderer. The murderer was hit on the right cheek and passed out; the murderer then dragged him to the entrance of the alley and cut his throat, cut up the corpse when he completely stopped breathing, and finally fled the scene with the severed organs...

However, such a seemingly simple restoration process revealed complex case characteristics:

[-]. The murderer had sufficient time, but did not commit sexual assault on the deceased; [-]. The method of committing the crime was to use lightning strikes to make the deceased incapacitated, and then cut the throat; [-]. The location of the crime was chosen without concealment; Fifth, there is a tendency to take away the organs of the deceased as spoils of war.

After listening to Han Yin's summary of the characteristics of the murderer, Wu Bin asked anxiously: "So, how should we interpret these characteristics?"

"Yes, yes! Teacher Han, what did you analyze?" Ai Xiaomei and Du Yingxiong couldn't help but echo in unison. It seems that these two children have long forgotten Gu Feifei's advice.

Seeing Gu Feifei staring fiercely, Han Yin smiled perfunctorily, lest she get angry in front of Wu Bin, and then said:

"First, from the method of committing the crime, two points can be interpreted: the 'lightning attack' indicates that the murderer is a stranger to the deceased, and cutting the throat looks a bit like a ritual - the murderer can use a blunt instrument to directly smash the deceased to death , but it took a process to show that cutting his throat was an act he had to resort to in the murder."

"Secondly, the murderer used round blunt weapons and knives respectively in the crime, and except for the dismemberment scene, there were no splashes of blood around, indicating that the murderer had also prepared containers for the murder weapon and organs in advance, so we can see It appears that this was a well-premeditated crime."

"Third, the bloodstains show that the first corpse was dismembered at the entrance of the alley, and I just walked a little deeper into the alley, and found that there were no fingers to be seen inside, and few people passed by, so why didn't the murderer go deep in the hidden alley?" Instead of disposing of the corpse, why not choose an alley that might be witnessed? There may also be two reasons for this: one is that the murderer was in a state of madness at the time, which means that he may have some kind of mental illness; the other point is that it is possible It's also a ritual behavior, which he did on purpose."

"Fourth, based on the absence of rape, corpse abuse, and organ collection, the murderer should be a sexual pervert. Such cruel killings may be to satisfy his perverted sexual fantasies."

"Fifth, the murderer revealed his identity through the Internet, the purpose is obviously to attract attention, to show that he is an unremarkable person in reality, and he gains a sense of identity by provoking the police. This behavior is characterized in the 'history' of abnormal crimes. superior……"

In fact, what Han Yin wanted to say was "very common in the history of abnormal crimes", but when he said the word "history", a picture suddenly flashed in his mind, and then he stopped talking and pointed his index finger Pushing the glasses, staring blankly into the distance...

Han Yin's conversation stopped abruptly, and Wu Bin, who didn't know what to say, naturally urged him to continue talking, but he was about to express something, but was stopped by Gu Feifei raising his hand - she was too familiar with Han Yin's gesture, when When it appeared, it often meant that he had found a key clue, and she didn't want Wu Bin to interrupt his train of thought.

"Captain Wu, let's come here first today, and we will discuss some situations tomorrow." After a long silence, Han Yin said to Wu Bin lightly, and then walked towards the police car without any explanation.Although the crowd was a little puzzled by Monk Zhang Er, they had no choice but to keep up.

Wu Bin sent several people to the guest house, distributed the room keys to each of them, and left.

The four lived on the same floor, and the rooms were next to each other. Han Yin opened the door, shook his head, motioned to everyone, and said, "Come to my room, all of you."

Entering the room, Han Yin went straight to the writing desk, unloaded the backpack, took out the laptop from inside, started it, and then opened the self-built "Case Database" to browse. Waiting silently for him to answer the question.

In fact, Han Yin had a sense of deja vu when he first saw the case materials, as if he had seen the same modus operandi in some previous case, but he couldn't remember it for a while.When talking about the history of abnormal crimes at the scene, he suddenly realized that this was a "imitation crime", but at that time he felt that it was necessary to check the details of the case carefully before announcing it to everyone.

After swiping the mouse silently for a while, Han Yin turned around and said to Ai Xiaomei: "Xiaomei, the reason why you want to be a criminal policeman in the support team is not influenced by some film and television dramas and crime novels?"

"Ah, Mr. Han, you are so godly, how did you know?" Ai Xiaomei said in surprise, "I really like reading crime novels, especially those about serial killers."

"Let me talk about a few characteristics. Think about where you have seen them." Han Yin smiled and continued, "This is a serial murder case that happened more than 100 years ago. The place where the murder took place is a famous local slum; the murderer The crimes were committed on Saturday and Sunday nights or early mornings; the victims were all prostitutes; the murderer was left-handed; the murder locations were all on the side of the street, not intentionally concealed; There were also acts of dissecting corpses and taking away organs; and in the middle of continuous crimes, letters were sent to newspapers to provoke."

As soon as Han Yin finished speaking, Ai Xiaomei was thinking hard, Gu Feifei frowned, and blurted out: "You should be talking about the serial murder of prostitutes that happened near Whitechapel in London's East End in 1888, right?"

"That's right! Isn't our case a replica of the 'Whitechapel Murder'? Could it be that the murderer is a fan of 'Jack the Ripper'?" Under Gu Feifei's call, Ai Xiaomei suddenly realized, and then said excitedly.

Han Yin nodded and said: "There is such a possibility. Although 'Jack the Ripper' is not the 'first serial killer' in the true sense, he is indeed the first serial killer to be noticed by Western society and the whole world. It can be said that He is synonymous with serial killers. In some anti-social personality groups, he is a hall-level criminal, and he has many fans today."

"If it's an imitation crime, and the murderer's criminal behavior is only carried out in the way of 'Jack the Ripper', not his own unique state, then we analyze his behavioral characteristics, is it worthless?" Du Yingxiong interjected.

"No, of course it is valuable. The so-called traces must be left behind, any behavior has its specific information, even if it is imitation, some may be superficial, while others will go deep into the bone marrow, from which we can infer the murderer's IQ and logical thinking level." Han Yin went on to explain, "In this case, no matter the time, place, method or even the criminal marking behavior, the murderer's imitation of 'Jack the Ripper' can be said to be exactly the same. Any omissions. This shows that the murderer is a person with mature thinking, rigorous character, and meticulous actions, and his age should be over 30 years old."

"In addition, since it is a copycat crime and the murderer deliberately pursues accurate details, it means that the location of the crime, especially the identity of the victim, is specific—it must be a 'prostitute' living in a 'slum area'. It can be inferred that the murderer may have He stepped on the spot repeatedly, and he must have observed the deceased at a close distance. He knew the identity of the deceased, the approximate time when she got off work, where she lived, and the route she would take to get home. He might even have patronized the deceased, but Not a regular customer."

"As for the motive of the crime, there are two possibilities: first, the murderer is a fan of 'Jack the Ripper', eager to gain popularity like an idol; Insulted, or infected with sexually transmitted diseases due to prostitutes, etc. When he wanted to punish them, he decided to adopt the method of the most famous and cruel prostitute killer 'Jack the Ripper'. In short, what we are dealing with is probably a 'The Whore Killer'."

Before Han Yin finished speaking, Du Yingxiong hurriedly interjected: "I think the murderer is not as rigorous as we imagined, right? 'Jack the Ripper' is mainly active near the Whitechapel, and the '4' case is near the place where the crime took place." There is no church, and the former sends letters to newspapers, while the latter posts online."

Without waiting for Han Yin's explanation, Gu Feifei continued: "These two points just prove that the murderer has a very mature thinking and has done a lot of research on the case of 'Jack the Ripper'. He didn't send a letter to the newspaper because he Because he knows very well that with our current system, it is impossible for newspapers to make his letter public, so that he cannot get the attention he expected; and the so-called 'Whitechapel' refers to the East End of London, the Tower of London and An area on the north side of the Port of London, near Whitechapel Street, does not refer to a church."

"Oh, so that's the case!" Du Yingxiong nodded vigorously, laughed twice, and said, "Sister Gu, you and Teacher Han really have a good understanding."

"It's a match made in heaven! Hehe!" Ai Xiaomei continued.

"What nonsense, is it itchy?" Gu Feifei gave her a hard look.

"Let's stop here today, it's getting late, everyone hurry back to rest, let's have a deeper discussion with Wu Bin tomorrow morning." Han Yin ended the conversation in good time in order to resolve the embarrassment between himself and Gu Feifei.

At this time, Han Yin thought that he had a clear understanding of the case, but he didn't know that the so-called "prostitute killer" was just the tip of the iceberg, and he would encounter even more mysterious and dangerous murders next!
Section [-] "Fan Killer"

In the morning, Han Yin and others gathered in front of the guest house, waiting for Wu Bin to pick them up in a car and go to the criminal police team.

Not long after, a white commercial vehicle stopped in front of everyone, and a thin young man got out of the driver's seat.Gu Feifei recognized this young man, he was a police officer of the task force, and he also attended yesterday's meeting.

The young police officer walked around the front of the car, opened the side door of the commercial vehicle, and greeted everyone to get on the car. After everyone was seated, he also got in the car and started the engine.

"Originally Team Wu was going to pick you up in person, but there was another murder case in Yushan Street early in the morning, so he had to rush over with his team." The young police officer turned the car around and explained for Wu Bin.

"It's nothing, it's actually very close, and we can walk to the bureau." Gu Feifei said politely, and then asked, "Why is it Yushan Street again? What case? Is it related to the '4' case?"

"It shouldn't have much to do with it. According to reports from the police station that arrived at the scene first, the method was different, but I heard that it was quite tragic. People were cut in half," said the young policeman.

Gu Feifei and Han Yin looked at each other and whispered something, then Gu Feifei said to the young police officer, "Can you take us to the scene?"

"Of course, no problem!" The young police officer responded readily, took out his mobile phone and called Wu Bin, asked for the exact direction, then turned right at an intersection and drove towards Yushan Street.

About a quarter of an hour later, the business vehicle brought everyone to the scene of the crime. Han Yin secretly calculated that the distance from here to the scene of the "4" case was less than one kilometer.

The scene was in the middle of a circular square, surrounded by a yellow and white cordon. Gu Feifei raised her hand and was about to set off the cordon to enter, when she suddenly turned around and told Du Yingxiong and Ai Xiaomei behind her: "You two are the first Once you appear on the scene, you may feel uncomfortable when you see the corpse for a while. You should try not to think about it as a human being. If you look at it as a prop or an ordinary evidence in a case, you will not feel afraid. If I can't help but feel like vomiting, it's better to go far away, don't let people think that our support team is unprofessional, understand?"

Gu Feifei's exhortations are definitely based on experience. Years of on-site experience have shown her the embarrassment of too many rookies when they see a corpse for the first time. Even facing a corpse without any scars or blood, some people can't wait to tear their internal organs and six internal organs. Spit it all out.My two subordinates had never experienced a murder scene before, especially Ai Xiaomei might not have seen a real corpse, so don't be surprised and make a fool of yourself in front of many colleagues in other places.

"It's okay, don't worry, sister Gu. I was an undercover drug dealer. What haven't I seen? I've died several times, and I can still be scared by a corpse?" Du Yingxiong patted his chest and said carelessly.

"No...it won't be too scary, right? I haven't seen a dead person before, so I really don't know how I will react." Compared with Du Yingxiong, Ai Xiaomei seemed a little less confident, with a timid voice, and a pair of small pink fists He was also clenched tightly, looking extremely nervous.

Seeing her appearance, Han Yin said considerately: "Xiaomei, you can follow Xiao Du for a while. If you really don't dare to look, just look at Xiao Du's back."

"Yes, yes, if you are afraid, hide behind me and stare at Ge Wei'an's arm." Du Yingxiong was beaming with joy, talking more and more vigorously.

If Du Yingxiong was so embarrassing in other occasions, Ai Xiaomei would have killed him long ago, but now she doesn't have the heart to talk to him, the blood on her face is getting less and less, and the lively vigor in the past has long since disappeared. Mechanically, "Mmmm" answered twice.

There is a circular flower bed in the middle of the square, which may have been neglected for a long time, and the flower bed is full of weeds half a meter high.The technical staff were busy taking pictures to collect evidence; the forensic doctor was conducting a preliminary examination of the corpse; Wu Bin held his arms, his lips were tightly pressed, his eyes were fixed on the corpse surrounded by weeds, and his face was very ugly.

Hearing a sound behind him, he turned his head and saw that it was Han Yin, Gu Feifei and the others, he dodged his body, raised his chin at the corpse, and said, "You guys are here, take a look!"

Han Yin and Gu Feifei nodded at him and walked to the corpse. Before they could take a closer look, they heard the sound of vomiting from behind. It was Du Yingxiong.He just glanced at the corpse, and then he couldn't even take a step, squatting on the side of the street and throwing up.Thinking about his swearing appearance just now, it really made Han Yin and Gu Feifei feel annoyed and funny.But what was unexpected was Ai Xiaomei, the little girl didn't feel uncomfortable at all, instead she looked excited.She leaned next to the corpse, observing from top to bottom as if in a serious manner, her eyes were full of freshness, as if she suddenly got a new toy, this is probably the so-called talent.

The deceased was a naked young woman. The corpse was cut in two from the navel, with the face facing up, the elbows bent, and the arms raised above the head. There is a distance of about 50 cm between them.The corpse showed obvious signs of being washed, and no blood was seen at the scene. The right breast was almost cut off, with only a layer of skin attached to it. There was an irregular diamond-shaped wound on the abdomen. An eerie smile formed on the face.

The tragic appearance of the corpse can be said to be heinous, especially the creepy "smile", which made Gu Feifei feel an inexplicable weird feeling in her heart.And Han Yin frowned, with a stern expression on his face. After a brief moment of contemplation, he said lightly, "Who was the first police officer to come to the scene?"

"It's me and the assistant police in the institute."

The answer came from behind Han Yin, he turned his head and saw a middle-aged policeman and a short assistant policeman.He looked at the middle-aged policeman and asked, "When you came, did the corpse look like this?"

"Yes, we haven't touched it, and we asked the citizens who called the police, and they also said that we haven't moved it." The middle-aged policeman replied.

Han Yin nodded, turned around and said in a deep voice, "Let's join the case!"

Join the case?Han Yin's words were beyond everyone's expectations, including Gu Feifei.She looked around the corpse and said: "There are signs of a severe blow to the head, and the mandible and masseter muscles in the mouth were severed. These may be the cause of death; the time of death was at least 24 hours; the hands and feet were deeply bound. The body has been carefully cleaned inside and out, indicating that this is definitely not the first scene; judging from the wounds and bruises on the two parts of the body, it should be a machete that divided the body; The deceased may not have completely stopped breathing at the time of division; the diamond-shaped wound on the abdomen of the corpse is the scar left by the hysterectomy, and the direction of the wound is clockwise. Combined with the division of the corpse, the wound is from left to right, indicating that the murderer’s right hand is dominant; Lacerated, should have been raped..."

"Yes, but no semen or hair was found. It seems that the murderer took precautions." The forensic doctor interjected.

After the forensic doctor finished speaking, Gu Feifei said to Han Yin in a questioning tone: "The dominant hand is the right hand, there was sexual assault, the deceased was detained, the scene was not the first scene, there was no iconic throat-cutting act, only the uterus was taken away, No kidney cutting, these are completely different from the '4' case, how can they be combined?"

"Has the identity of the deceased been confirmed?" Han Yin did not respond immediately, but turned to ask Wu Bin next to him, but before Wu Bin could speak, he asked again, "Does her work have something to do with acting?"

"Yes! How do you know?" Wu Bin said in surprise, "She works as a singer in a low-end dance hall on Yushan Street, and lives nearby. We have already found her rented house, which is the first scene of the murder."

"She should have had anal sex." Han Yin continued.

After hearing Han Yin's prompt, Gu Feifei quickly turned the lower half of the corpse to a 45-degree angle for a little look, and then nodded with a puzzled face.

"She must have been forced to swallow her own stool." Han Yin reminded again.

Gu Feifei put her nose close to the deceased's mouth, sniffed it vigorously, then raised her head and said, "You are right, whether it is her own or not, but it is certain that she has swallowed feces. In this way, this is also a case of imitation. Is it right?"

"Hmm!" Han Yin said with a serious face, "In January 1947, in Los Angeles, California, there was a dismemberment case that shocked the United States, that is, the famous 'Black Dahlia Murder'. The characteristics of the case, and The case in front of me is exactly the same, even the scene environment and the identity of the deceased are almost the same - the crime scene is also a grassy square, and the deceased is a third-rate Hollywood actor."

"In the same Yushan street area, two abnormal imitation crimes occurred in succession in less than half a month. It can't be just a coincidence. It seems that it is necessary to join the case." Gu Feifei was convinced of Han Yin's judgment at this time. Undoubtedly, she sighed deeply, and continued, "Well, in this way, the murderer we are facing is not a fan of the so-called 'Jack the Ripper'. Maybe all perverted killers are objects of his admiration."

"What 'Jack the Ripper' fans? What perverted killer fans? What are you talking about?" Wu Bin asked eagerly, staring at his bloodshot eyes.

"Oh, it's like this..." Han Yin gave Wu Bin a rough explanation, saying that the relevant behavioral analysis will be submitted in detail after returning to the team, then turned to Gu Feifei and said, "It seems that we must adjust the 'crime crime' last night. Profile' it!"

"Yes, especially in terms of motivation." Gu Feifei said understandingly.

Du Yingxiong didn't dare to approach the corpse until Wu Bin announced his withdrawal from the team after the on-site investigation was over.The policemen guarding the scene kept sniggering, which made him feel even more ashamed, and wished he could break through a crack in the ground and sneak in.Fortunately, on the way back, Han Yin and Gu Feifei ignored him, otherwise he would feel even more embarrassed.However, Ai Xiaomei would not let go of this opportunity to "trick" him, and kept winking at him, imitating his vomiting...

The Fourth Killing Experience

The two original cases of imitating crimes are very famous cases in the history of perverted crimes.The reason why they are famous, on the one hand, is because the murderer's method of committing the crime is extremely cruel; on the other hand, it is because they are still unsolved cases.This gives them a mysterious color. For decades, people have been obsessed with the research of these two unsolved cases, hoping to dig out the truth.So what is the murderer's purpose in this case?Is it because he is obsessed with digging out the truth, leading to madness?Or is it a kind of worship and tribute to the murderer?Or a desire to learn and experience the thrill of perverted crime?In short, with the emergence of the second imitation case, the murderer's motive became more elusive.

At first, Han Yin thought that the target of the murderer was mainly prostitutes, but now it seems that whether it is a "stage lady" or a "dance hall singer", they are just props for the murderer to imitate the crime. Not much research value.Of course, if there are clues to prove that there is an intersection between them, it will be a different matter. Unfortunately, so far, the task force has not found any connection between the two victims in their lives.

Similarly, the performance of the murderer in committing the crime this time is the same as his first crime, imitating the details of the unsolved case very accurately.Also, as Han Yin analyzed earlier, this was a well-premeditated crime.The murderer must have been around the two victims, and the close proximity of the crime scenes suggested that the murderer was very familiar with Yushan Street and might even have lived there.Then, the focus of the next work is to concentrate the police force on the vicinity of the two crime scenes and the workplace of the deceased, looking for potential witnesses, and asking whether any suspicious people appeared before the crime.

After an in-depth and meticulous investigation of Yushan Street, the results can be said to be good and bad.

The bad side is that there is really no connection between the two deceased; the good side is that there is a "lady" who solicits customers on the street, saying that she saw someone wandering around the scene of the first case in the middle of the night, and she kept dancing Comparing, but the time is not before the incident, but recently.

Could it be that the murderer returned to the scene to review the pleasure?If yes, will he return to the second scene?In response to the clues provided by "Miss Station Street", Han Yin suggested that the task force closely monitor the circular square, but to his surprise, that figure appeared that night.

At around 11:[-] p.m., when people and vehicles on the street gradually became scarce, a man in black sportswear and a gray sports cap entered the surveillance range.He got out of an alley next to the square, with the brim of his hat lowered, stood on the side of the street and looked around for a while, then pretended to be very casual, and slowly approached the flower bed in the middle of the square.

He stopped by the flower bed, staring blankly at the weeds in the flower bed, as if he was in deep thought. After a while, he started to wander around the flower bed, talking plausibly, and gesticulating with his hands...

At Wu Bin's order, several police officers jumped off the surveillance vehicles and quickly approached the center of the square.Seeing a few strong men running towards him, the man hurriedly turned around and ran towards the residential area on the other side of the square...

The residential area is very large, and there are several alleys intersecting in the middle. The inside is dark, the terrain is bumpy and uneven. The police officers who chased in did not dare to let go, they could only feel their way forward, and the target soon disappeared. gone.

Several police officers were feeling depressed when they suddenly heard small groans not far away.Following the sound, a policeman lit up the screen of his mobile phone and took a picture. He saw the target man lying on the ground with blood on his face. I dare say this guy is unfamiliar with the road, so he panicked and knocked himself down.It is true that "there is nowhere to find it if you break through the iron shoes, and it takes no effort to get it." The police officer immediately took out the handcuffs, handcuffed the man's hands, and dragged him from the ground.

The man captured in the square was quickly brought back to the criminal police team.The injuries on his face were not serious, and after simple treatment, he was sent to the interrogation room for interrogation.

"Name?"

"Zhang Songlin."

"age?"

"43 is old."

"Profession?"

"writer."

A set of routine questions, the man didn't have the slightest resistance, and the answers were quite cooperative.Gu Feifei continued to ask with a cold face: "Why don't you stay at home in the middle of the night and wander around in the square? Do you know that is the scene of a murder?"

"I know, I know, I'm really sorry to cause you trouble." Zhang Songlin nodded vigorously, and explained with an apologetic gesture, "I'm currently writing a crime novel, and when I heard about the case, I thought of the real murder Feel the atmosphere at the scene and look for some creative inspiration. I didn’t expect to be regarded as a suspect by you, and I mistakenly regarded you as robbers, so I ran away... Really... It was a complete misunderstanding."

"So, the person who appeared in the 'alley' a few days ago is also you?" Gu Feifei asked.

"Yes, it's me." Zhang Songlin replied simply.

"How did you know about the murder?" Gu Feifei asked again.

"In a place as big as Yushan Street, it was not long before such a thing happened." Zhang Songlin immediately explained, "In order to be able to create with peace of mind, I temporarily rented a private house on Yushan Street."

"In the early morning of April 4th, and..."

Before Gu Feifei could finish her question, Zhang Songlin interrupted her, and continued: "You want to ask about my whereabouts when the two cases happened, right? Frankly speaking, I must have been writing during that time, but I have no way to prove it. "

Probably because he often writes crime novels, Zhang Songlin seems to be familiar with interrogation routines, and has always been very calm, and there is no flaw in his speech.Gu Feifei stared at him while organizing her thoughts, but she didn't expect Zhang Songlin to start asking back.

"Officer, do you mind if I ask you two questions?"

"Tell me." Gu Feifei nodded hesitantly, she wanted to see what tricks this pine forest had to play.

"I heard rumors that in the case in the square, the deceased was split in half, and the corners of both mouths were cut into smiles. Is it true?" Zhang Songlin asked the first question, seeing Gu Feifei pondering for a while. , nodded slightly, and then asked, "Currently, your police judged that the two cases were committed by one person, or did they come from two different murderers?"

"We tend to have only one murderer." Gu Feifei tentatively responded.

After Gu Feifei finished speaking, Zhang Songlin suddenly sucked in a breath of cold air, and immediately shrank back on the chair, with a flash of panic in his eyes.After a moment of silence, he said in a low voice: "I venture to speculate that you must already know that the two cases imitate the killing method of 'Jack the Ripper' and the famous 'Black Dahlia Murder' respectively, right? "

"How do you know?" Gu Feifei looked surprised, then became vigilant.

Zhang Songlin ignored Gu Feifei and murmured in a daze, "It seems that it really has something to do with me..."

"What's related to you? How do you know it's a copycat?"

"Oh, don't worry, don't worry, listen to me slowly." Zhang Songlin said slowly, "Crime novels like us usually pay attention to collecting cases as materials. I know a little about it. So when I saw a post on a forum by someone claiming to be a murderer, I felt like he was imitating 'Jack the Ripper', but I didn't expect him to follow up with 'Dahlia', which made me Think of someone..."

"Who do you remember?" Wu Bin beside Gu Feifei couldn't help interjecting, "Can you stop talking so much? Get to the point!"

"Okay, let me keep it simple." Under Wu Bin's urging, Zhang Songlin sped up his speech appropriately, "I usually communicate with netizens on forums, mainly to collect material, and occasionally answer some netizens' questions. I remember that about three months ago, that is, in mid-January this year, I met a netizen on the forum. He claimed to be my loyal fan and was particularly interested in serial killer cases. He asked me about the most perverted person in the world. , Which are the most sensational cases. I remember that the ones I introduced to him were 'Jack the Ripper' and 'Black Dahlia', and I also told him which websites to go to to see more detailed introductions about these two cases .Now it seems that I may have become the mentor of a serial killer invisibly, and I seriously doubt that this person is the murderer you are looking for!"

"It's possible, otherwise how could it be such a coincidence?" Wu Bin paused, then asked, "Can you still find the records of your chat?"

"Yes." Zhang Songlin nodded.

"That's great, maybe we can trace his IP address." Gu Feifei thumped the table vigorously with her fists excitedly.

Through the one-way glass in the interrogation room, Han Yin witnessed the entire interrogation process of Zhang Songlin, and he was also very excited.In his opinion, the murderer might not be particularly cautious when he was preparing for a crime, and he might not deliberately conceal his IP address, so that he could be caught by following the clues.He told Ai Xiaomei to start cracking it immediately, the network is her strong point.

However, when Han Yin calmed down, he suddenly realized that the information provided by Zhang Songlin complicated the case again, and he had to revise his criminal profile again.Originally, he had always emphasized that the murderer was fully premeditated, and he believed that the murderer would be like the perverted killer "Liu Chao", who was extremely obsessed with crime novels and film and television works, and had a pathological admiration for certain perverted criminals. Psychology, especially for those brutal murder cases.But judging from the current information, the murderer's behavior seems to be a bit "cramping".This overturned Han Yin's previous assumptions about the motives of the crime. It seems that the reason why the murderer wanted to imitate the two perverted cases was because of their sensational effect.Han Yin had a vague feeling that these two cases were just two "bricks" thrown by the murderer, so what kind of "jade" would they lead to?

Section [-] Rainy Night Tracking
Ai Xiaomei successfully crossed the firewall, entered the terminal server of a certain forum, and soon found out the IP address of the user who consulted Zhang Songlin about the case. The IP address comes from an Internet cafe in Nagata City, but the surveillance video of the Internet cafe three months ago has been overwritten, and no one can recall what happened at that time.

Although Zhang Songlin showed a frank and cooperative attitude during the questioning, based on the comprehensive analysis of various information surrounding him, he is still suspected of committing the crime.

So far, Zhang Songlin has been renting in Yushan Street for more than half a year, and he is very familiar with the area where the crime occurred; similarly, he is also very familiar with every detail in the "Jack the Ripper Case" and "Black Dahlia Murder"; moreover, he went to After going through two crime scenes, although the reason is to experience life, who can guarantee that he didn't go to reminisce?Moreover, he has no witness that he was not at the scene at the time of the crime; in addition, after conducting a more in-depth investigation of his personal information, the task force found that his current life is in a very embarrassing situation.

Zhang Songlin did publish a few books, but they never became popular. For a period of time, he closed his pen to speculate in stocks, but he lost all his money and was financially stretched, which also made his relationship with his wife and children extremely tense.According to his friend, he is currently writing a crime novel. He attaches great importance to this work and hopes to change the current predicament through it, so he is under a lot of psychological pressure.So, is it possible that these living embarrassments and pressures, as well as the experience of continuous setbacks, made him mentally ill?For example, hallucinations, persecutory delusions, obsessive-compulsive disorder...and when these symptoms develop to a serious level, they will lead to extreme behaviors.

In short, for Zhang Songlin who is in the trough of his life, this creation can only win but not lose. Will he use all means to set up a big game to hype himself?If Zhang Songlin really planned this series of cases, and Han Yin's so-called "throwing bricks to attract jade" point of view is tenable, then how will Zhang Songlin "play his cards" next?And how would he use this card to achieve the purpose of hype, and at the same time let himself get away with it?
Two vicious homicides occurred one after another, and the police began to pay more attention to the night inspection of Yushan Street, especially for Zhang Songlin, who was suspected of committing the crime, and the special case team focused on surveillance.

At midnight, after a dull thunder, the sky began to drizzle, and the raindrops slapped on the car windows. The rhythmic sound made the drowsy police officers in the surveillance vehicles even more sleepy. Tolerate.But at this moment, Zhang Songlin, who had been staying at home for several days, suddenly walked out of the rental house and got into his Jetta parked at the alley.

Not long after Zhang Songlin drove out, Wu Bin started the van and followed. Han Yin and others sitting in the back row of the car woke up from their doze.

Zhang Songlin chose to go out at this time, probably because he had to "do something". Of course, Wu Bin will never let him succeed this time.In order to prevent accidents, Wu Bin mobilized most of the police forces and vehicles secretly patrolling Yushan Street to the tracking mission. Under the premise of ensuring the safety of the unknown victim, Zhang Songlin must be captured when Zhang Songlin commits another crime.At this time, Zhang Songlin didn't realize at all that a big net was quietly covering him in the cold rainy night.

Half an hour later, the rain had almost stopped, and Zhang Songlin's car drove out of the urban area and entered a small mountain village.

The small mountain village is called Cherry Blossom Village, which is named after a cherry garden in the village. When the cherry blossoms are in full bloom in April and May every year, it will attract many citizens who come to watch and go outing.

Could it be that Zhang Songlin chose the Sakura Garden as the location of the crime this time?But at this time, who will appear in the cherry blossom garden?It didn't take long for Wu Bin to mutter in his heart, when he saw Zhang Songlin's car stopped by the cherry garden.

Turning off the engine and turning off the lights, Zhang Songlin and the car were hidden in the dark night, and there was no movement for a while.After a while, there were flickering lights in the car, and it was estimated that Zhang Songlin had lit a cigarette.In the surveillance car more than 50 meters away, Han Yin and Gu Feifei observed Zhang Songlin's movements with binoculars, and they both felt that Zhang Songlin seemed to be hesitant about committing the crime.

After smoking a cigarette, Zhang Songlin finally got out of the car with a flashlight in his hand. He wrapped his clothes around his body and walked up a narrow mountain road on the west side of the cherry blossom garden.Wu Bin ordered the rest of the police officers to stay on standby to prevent Zhang Songlin from escaping through other exits. He only took Han Yin, Du Yingxiong and a few of his subordinates with him, and followed behind silently.

The entire cherry blossom garden is built on the mountain, the foot of the mountain is bleak and quiet, the low chirping of wild insects and the breathing of everyone can be clearly heard.Since it had just rained, the mountain road was a little muddy, and they were worried about being discovered by Zhang Songlin in front, so everyone walked with extra caution.Fortunately, the mountain is not high, and the mountain road is not very steep, so the group quickly followed to the middle of the mountain.Then, they saw Zhang Songlin standing in front of a large dam from a distance, holding a flashlight and looking around vigilantly, as if waiting for the appearance of "prey".

Wu Bin made gestures and directed everyone to hide around, quietly forming an encirclement circle, surrounding Zhang Songlin to death.Before everyone was in their positions, someone's cell phone rang suddenly, and Zhang Songlin, who was like a frightened bird, held up a flashlight to take a photo, and asked tremblingly, "Who? Is...is it you? Come... come out! It's just me one person!"

Seeing someone showing his signs, Wu Bin waved his hand, and all the police officers jumped out from the depths and quickly gathered towards Zhang Songlin.With so many people suddenly appearing around, Zhang Songlin seemed unprepared. In a panic, he threw the flashlight on the ground, took out a bright short knife from his pocket, and made random gestures in front of him.Du Yingxiong, who took the lead, dexterously avoided the oncoming knife, then raised his hand to firmly hold Zhang Songlin's wrist holding the knife, twisted it hard with his backhand, and then kicked his legs behind the knees in an instant. Turning, the whole movement was completed in one go, before the people behind could catch up, they only heard the dagger fall to the ground with a "dang", and saw Zhang Songlin staggered, and fell to his knees with a "plop".

"You...you...you... are the police?!" Zhang Songlin recognized that Wu Bin was standing in front of him, and his whole body collapsed to the ground, and then he took a deep breath, and his tense nerves seemed to relax suddenly .

Although it is not considered to have obtained all witnesses and witnesses, if a short knife can be handed in, if it can be proved that it is related to any one of the two cases, Zhang Songlin can also be "crucified".

"Be honest, who is your target this time?" Wu Bin picked up the flashlight from the ground and shone it on Zhang Songlin's face.

"Target? What target?" Zhang Songlin covered his cheeks with his hands to block the glare of the beam, and asked in puzzlement.But then he felt the situation he was facing, and suddenly realized, "You have been following me? It seems that you still think that I killed those two girls! In fact, you misunderstood..."

"Misunderstanding?" Wu Bin interrupted Zhang Songlin sharply, "Then explain to me, what are you doing in such a ghostly place with a knife in your pocket in the middle of the night?"

"I...I...I'm here to see the 'murderer'." Zhang Songlin lowered his head, said in a low voice, and then took a peek at Wu Bin, who had a gloomy face, "Actually...actually, the one who communicated with me on the forum The netizen, who you think is the murderer, once talked with me on QQ, and he is the one who asked me out tonight..."

"What? You know the murderer's QQ number? Why didn't you tell us such important information before?" Wu Bin was a little out of breath, and angrily raised his foot and kicked Zhang Songlin.

"Wait!" Han Yin hurriedly grabbed Wu Bin, motioned him to stabilize first, and asked Zhang Songlin, "You mean the murderer invited you here?"

"Yeah." Zhang Songlin instinctively dodged back, and said regretfully, "I was going to talk about QQ when I was questioned by the criminal police that day, but at that time, a strange thought flashed in my mind, thinking that if I can have a face-to-face communication with the murderer, maybe I can get very valuable first-hand materials and inspiration, which will be of great help to me in portraying the villain in the novel, and will make the whole novel more three-dimensional and fuller. Yes, I was also lucky in my heart, thinking that I might have the opportunity to catch the murderer myself, which would be a good hype and boost to my popularity. So after returning to my residence, I started to leave him a message on QQ, I proposed to meet with him, but he never went online and didn’t reply to me, so I simply left a message saying that I know he is the murderer in Yushan Street, if he kills because he wants to be famous, then come out and talk to me, I will make him more famous. Then today, no, it should be said that it was yesterday evening, he sent me a message out of the blue, asking me to meet here at the dam at 1 o'clock in the evening today, and he will answer everything I want to know , as long as it makes him famous." "Aren't you afraid that he will clean up with you too?" Wu Bin said angrily.

"Of course I was afraid. I hesitated just now, but I was really obsessed. I always thought about how to be famous, and I couldn't care about anything else." Zhang Songlin didn't dare to provoke Wu Bin, moved his body and dragged Han Yin's hand Clothes said, "You have to believe me, I'm really not a murderer!"

"Get up, it's very easy to prove your innocence, we just need to look at your QQ chat records, and then do some corresponding tests on the dagger. But if you are innocent, then you are too stupid, you Do you know that you almost became a 'scapegoat'..." Han Yin's voice was calm at first, but he suddenly stopped talking, turned his head and said to Wu Bin hastily, "No, this is not the murderer's purpose. We have strengthened it over the past few days. The murderer must have sensed the night patrol on Yushan Street, so he has not acted. Maybe he couldn't hold back anymore, or he inspired the murderer..." Han Yin pointed to Zhang Songlin and said, "The murderer used him to make a move. A 'trick to divert the tiger away from the mountain', to attract all the police forces we have arranged to patrol Yushan Street here, then he can calmly attack again or abandon the body."

Before Han Yin could finish speaking, Wu Bin had understood the critical situation. He turned on the walkie-talkie and shouted, "Attention all teams, return to Yushan Street as quickly as possible to patrol, focusing on alleys without street lights and relatively hidden corners in the area." .”

Section [-] Mysterious case reappears
Early morning, 6 o'clock.

A ray of sunlight pierced through the thin mist and projected on the path in the park.The poplar branches standing on both sides of the path are covered with crystal clear dewdrops. The faint fragrance is emitted from the green leaves and diffuses in the moist air. The vibrant garden creates a hazy and romantic atmosphere.

At the end of the path is a square with an old pavilion and some equipment for citizens to relax and exercise.What is more conspicuous is that there is a tall iron frame erected next to the pavilion, and two swings are hung on the mottled beams.There is a woman sitting on one of the swings, her hands are resting on the twisted iron chain, her head is drooping, her long gray curly hair covers her cheeks in a mess, her bloated and fat body is naked, and a pair of slender and dry breasts hang down on her lower abdomen between.

This is an open park located in Yushan Street, and it is also the third crime scene of the "4" murderer.The reason why it can be connected with the previous two cases is that in the open space not far from the deceased, in addition to her clothes scattered, there was also an open white plastic bag, which contained several bloody and rotten pieces. Meat.Counted and identified by the forensic doctor, there are two human kidneys and two uteruses. Needless to say, they must come from "Taiwan Girl" and "Dancing Hall Singer".

The deceased was discovered by citizens who were exercising in the park in the morning. Immediately, the entire park was blocked, and almost all the police force of the city bureau was mobilized. .

So many police forces were deployed in Yushan Street, both openly and secretly, and the murderer was able to easily succeed. The director Zhou Haishan's face was very ugly, his face was stretched, and he stared at Wu Bin fiercely.

He didn't close his eyes all night, especially in the second half of the night, he kept patrolling every corner of the area, but in the end he couldn't avoid the victim's appearance. Wu Bin's eyes were red, he lowered his head to avoid the director's gaze, and his mood was extremely depressed.

After taking a series of photos of the deceased sitting on the swing from various angles, the city bureau forensic doctor and assistants moved the deceased from the swing to the body bag on the stretcher. At this time, everyone finally saw the appearance of the deceased clearly.

This is an old woman who is over sixty years old, her face has obviously been severely beaten, and there is a deep strangle mark on her neck, which is yellowish-brown in color and looks very fresh.Since no sharp injuries were found on the body, it can be preliminarily confirmed that the deceased was strangled to death. The temperature of the body was measured rectally, and the estimated time of death should be between 1:2 and [-]:[-] in the middle of the night. It was precisely when a large number of police forces were attracted by Zhang Songlin to Yinghua Village. time.There were signs of struggle on the back of the deceased’s jacket and trousers, and the body spots were mainly deposited on the buttocks, indicating that the deceased was put on a swing soon after being strangled to death. From this, it can be basically judged that the scene was the first murder scene.The lower body parts of the deceased were not injured and should not have been…

When the forensic doctor observed the lower body of the deceased and came to the conclusion that there was no sexual assault, Gu Feifei, who had been watching, seemed to notice something.She suddenly stepped forward to remove the lower body of the deceased, and then raised her hand to the forensic doctor. The forensic doctor knowingly handed over a pair of tweezers. The small stick, upon closer inspection, turned out to be a crayon, and when the tweezers were inserted into the vagina, another one came out...

"This murderer is too perverted! After killing someone, he actually stuffed two colored crayons into his lower body!"

The scene was actually not very scary, but the murderer's method made people feel an indescribable disgust.As Ai Xiaomei couldn't help but blurted out an exclamation, the rest of the police officers on the scene also had expressions of astonishment. It seemed that this was definitely beyond everyone's experience.Although Du Yingxiong didn't behave as well as last time, his hands were still subconsciously rubbing his arms back and forth, probably because of goosebumps all over his body.But what surprised Han Yin was the performance of director Zhou Haishan.

Due to dissatisfaction with the work of the special case team, Zhou Haishan had previously frowned, stared wide-eyed, and pouted his mouth, which indicated that he was very angry; later, when he saw Gu Feifei take out two crayons from the vagina of the deceased , there was a movement of raising his eyebrows, his eyes were still wide open, but his mouth opened slightly unconsciously, as if he was suddenly hypoxic.This series of actions is very short, fleeting, and it is a surprised expression.Then, although he was still raising his eyebrows, wrinkles appeared between his eyebrows, his eyelids were raised upwards, very close to his eyebrows, and his slightly opened mouth began to grin to the sides, especially his body language was more obvious, showing unconscious The movement of taking a small step back spoke volumes about his fear.

The first two performances were normal reactions and understandable, but what puzzled Han Yin was, for a veteran scout who had experienced many battles, what made him feel scared at that moment?What made Han Yin even more unexpected was that Zhou Haishan was stunned for a while, but turned around and walked away without saying a word.Perhaps Wu Bin and some of the police officers present felt that the director was dissatisfied with his work and walked away, but Han Yin clearly felt a loss of composure.He quickly exchanged glances with Gu Feifei, Gu Feifei nodded slightly, it seemed that she also noticed something strange about the director's behavior.

As soon as the director left, the rest of the leaders also left the scene. Wu Bin regained his composure and consulted Gu Feifei and Han Yin for the next move.If the characteristics of the previous two cases were followed, the murderer must have imitated a perverted case this time, but Han Yin had no impression of this modus operandi in his memory.In the past, there have been cases where the murderer stuffed stones, stockings, bottle caps, etc. into the vagina of the deceased after killing the victim.For example, in the famous "Hwaseong serial murder case in South Korea", the murderer stuffed nine pieces of peaches into the vagina of the deceased... But the case of stuffing two colored crayons, especially when sitting on a swing, is really unheard of Said.

Based on this situation, Han Yin proposed to divide the troops into three ways: He and Du Yingxiong went to talk to Zhang Songlin himself. Maybe he had mentioned such a modus operandi when communicating with the murderer.Gu Feifei and Ai Xiaomei immediately returned to the criminal police team, and checked through the Internet whether such a case had ever occurred in the history of perverted crimes.Although the victim in this case may still be just a "prop" and his own situation is of no value to the detection of the case, Han Yin still believes that Wu Bin should take his people to investigate the victim's situation and social relations, especially How did she appear in the park so late, was she coerced by the murderer, or voluntarily, and so on.

Both Wu Bin and Gu Feifei agreed with Han Yin's proposal, and immediately split up to act.

Although Zhang Songlin was entangled with the police in Yinghua Village at the time of the incident, it cannot be ruled out that he had an accomplice who was responsible for attracting the police and the accomplice was responsible for the murder. When Zhang Songlin was found in the rental house, they all had scrutiny and a probing tone.

"Are you sure you have only communicated with the murderer on two cases on the Internet?" Han Yin raised his hand to block the cigarette Zhang Songlin handed over, and asked with his eyes looking straight at him.

"Yes!" Zhang Songlin nodded vigorously, put the cigarette on his mouth, and said vaguely while lighting the fire, "It's just those two! You must be the murderer who committed the crime again, right?"

"Yeah." Du Yingxiong said angrily, "Just when we were attracted to Yinghua Village by you in the early hours of this morning."

"Then...then I became an accomplice..." Zhang Songlin tugged at his disheveled hair, deeply remorseful.

"Okay, it's useless to regret now, let's talk about the current matter! Have you communicated with the murderer about some modus operandi before? For example, strangling a person to death, and then putting the body on a swing, still in the lower part of the body... "

Han Yin focused on describing the methods used by the murderer in the third case, but Zhang Songlin suddenly and quickly snuffed out the cigarette in his hand, and said with a blushing face: "Is it true that the murderer's lower body is still being used by the murderer?" Stuck in something?"

"It's two colored crayons." Han Yin said lightly.

"It turned out to be two crayons! I didn't expect such a case to exist!" Zhang Songlin blushed even more, looking a little excited.

"How do you know that the murderer stuffed objects into the lower body of the deceased? You really taught the murderer to do that, right?" Du Yingxiong looked doubtful, and because Zhang Songlin's change of mood made him feel disgusted, his tone was quite blunt.

"Uh, no...it's not like that." Zhang Songlin definitely didn't feel the pleasure from Han Yin's description. His excitement belonged to the kind of surprise when he suddenly encountered an excellent writing material from the perspective of a writer, but Faced with a life being taken away, one should not show excitement on one's face anyway.Aware of his gaffe, Zhang Songlin quickly explained: "No, I never discussed with the murderer how to kill, but the modus operandi you mentioned just now appeared in one of our cases in the early years."

"What case? Tell me in detail!" Han Yin urged.

Zhang Songlin recalled a little, and said unhurriedly: "I said before that writers of crime novels like us usually pay attention to collecting materials, and are especially willing to communicate with the police. I remember hearing an old criminal policeman say There was such a case, probably in the late 70s, a single young woman was raped and killed at home. There was a swing in the yard of the young woman's house, and then, as you just said, the body was placed on the swing , an object was stuffed into the vagina.” Zhang Songlin paused and said, “I really don’t know the specific situation. It is said that in that era, that kind of case was almost shocking the whole country. After the murderer was caught, he was shot dead very quickly. Well, the files of the case were also sealed and kept. Even the people inside the Public Security Bureau didn’t know much about it. The old criminal policeman only heard about such a case. What. When he told me that, I thought he was fooling me, but I didn't expect it to be true."

"Can the old criminal policeman still be found?" Han Yin asked urgently.

"Oh, he has passed away." Zhang Songlin said regretfully.

The old criminal policeman who told the case passed away, wouldn't that prove Zhang Songlin's words, did such a case really happen?Could it be that Zhang Songlin and the murderer fabricated it to achieve a certain purpose?Han Yin pondered secretly in his heart, but it is not difficult to confirm it, just ask Gu Feifei to apply for the so-called top-secret file.

Coming out of Zhang Songlin's rented house, Han Yin quickly took out his mobile phone to call Gu Feifei, but he didn't expect to hear a news that surprised him-the office building of Changtian City Public Security Bureau caught fire!
Chapter Seven: The Hidden Fire
Han Yin and Du Yingxiong rushed back to the Municipal Public Security Bureau and saw several fire trucks coming out of the Municipal Bureau's compound in a file. The fire must have been extinguished.However, the compound was still full of noise. The staff of the Municipal Bureau gathered in the courtyard, and some media who had heard the news were taking pictures and interviewing them. Everyone's attention was focused on the two windows on the top floor of the Municipal Bureau's office building.

The main office building of Changtian City Public Security Bureau has five floors. From the outside, it should be built for some years. The fires are mainly concentrated in the two westernmost rooms on the fifth floor.The windows of the two rooms have been burned black, but the rest of the building is intact. It seems that the fire fighting work was done in a timely manner, and the damage should not be large.

Han Yin found Gu Feifei and Ai Xiaomei in the crowd. They were in the criminal police office building behind the main building, so there was no problem in terms of safety.

"Why did it suddenly catch fire?" Han Yin asked Gu Feifei.

"It is said that it is caused by the aging of the circuit." Gu Feifei looked around consciously, approached Han Yin and said in a low voice, "I just asked, the two rooms on fire are the old archives, which mainly store the records of the founding of the People's Republic of China. Then came the archives in the 80s. Just as you found out some clues to consult the old archives, the archives here caught fire. Don’t you think it’s a coincidence? I think there is something wrong with the fire.”

After hearing Gu Feifei's words, Han Yin turned his head to look at the burning archive room, frowned slightly, and thought to himself: "Yes! The timing is too coincidental. Could it be that the fire was aimed at the top-secret archive? But why? What? If the rape and murder case mentioned by Zhang Songlin did exist, didn’t it mean that the case had been successfully concluded? Then what is the fire trying to cover up? Who has the ability and courage to set fire to the Public Security Bureau building? Get out? There should be some problems with this fire and the case back then, maybe it has something to do with the people inside the city bureau."

Since people inside the Municipal Bureau are involved, it is inappropriate to talk about the fire at this time and place, so Han Yin changed the topic and asked Ai Xiaomei: "Xiaomei, did you find information related to the modus operandi of the third case on the Internet?" Yet?"

"No, I don't have any clue." Ai Xiaomei said, "I've searched all over the world for cases, but I haven't found any similar modus operandi."

Han Yin nodded, thought for a while, and said to Gu Feifei: "Forget it, there is a lot of chaos here, and it will be almost noon soon, let's go back to the guest house, have a meal in the restaurant, and then discuss it after Wu Bin comes back." Subsequent investigation plan."

"Okay then, let's go." Gu Feifei glanced around and nodded.

The guest house is very close to the Municipal Bureau, and it takes less than 10 minutes to walk. Several people arrived at the guest house while discussing the case.

Before entering the door, Du Yingxiong's cell phone rang, and he was left at the end. When he answered, it was to promote the underground lottery. , you are brave enough, when I finish the case, I will free up my hands and take you all away..."

Bowing his head and talking on the phone, Du Yingxiong casually opened the large glass door of the guest house, not wanting to bump into a man who came out of it.The man was wearing a peaked cap with the brim pressed down very low. He didn't know if there was some urgent matter, but before Du Yingxiong could react, he hurried away.Du Yingxiong didn't take it seriously at first, but when he hung up the phone, he suddenly felt that the man just now seemed familiar, but when he turned around and tried to identify it carefully, the man had long since disappeared.

Du Yingxiong walked a few steps quickly, crossed the lobby to catch up with several people waiting for the elevator at the elevator entrance, took the elevator to the floor where he lived.Han Yin opened the door with the room card and found an envelope falling out of the crack of the door.Han Yin let out a "huh" and picked up the envelope, and everyone gathered around when they heard the sound.

There was nothing written on the surface of the envelope. When I opened the envelope, I saw a note inside, with a line of small characters written on it: 19791228, Room 279, No. 105, Lingshui Road, Fangfang Street.

"What does this mean? Who wrote it?" Gu Feifei looked at Han Yin who was in a daze and asked.

"The number in front should refer to December 1979, 12, and the latter is obviously an address." Han Yin thought for a while and said, "As for who wrote it, it's hard to say!"

"While you were waiting for the elevator, did you see a man wearing a peaked cap come out?" Du Yingxiong suddenly remembered the man who collided with him at the door.

"I didn't pay much attention to it. At that time, I was discussing the case with Sister Gu and Teacher Han." Ai Xiaomei said.

After Ai Xiaomei finished speaking, Han Yin and Gu Feifei also nodded to express that they didn't care, then Gu Feifei asked: "Why, did you see a suspicious person?"

Du Yingxiong described the scene at the door just now, and then said with a firm tone: "It must be that man, otherwise why is he so flustered? Unfortunately, I only saw his profile, but I feel like I have seen it somewhere , but I just can’t remember.”

"It's okay, you go back and think about it first." Han Yin saw Du Yingxiong scratching his head and looking anxious, so he comforted him, and then said, "Xiaomei, go back to your room to rest first, we will eat during dinner." Calling you, Gu Group, let's go to the security department and check the surveillance video..."

The security department did not lift the veil of the courier during this trip. Due to the limited conditions of the guest house, only cameras were installed in the elevator. However, no suspects with abnormal behavior were found in the surveillance video of the elevator. It is estimated that the courier left to avoid surveillance. Exit!

In the afternoon, Wu Bin came to the guest house and brought the background information of the third victim.

Wu Bin said: "The deceased's name is Liang Yan. She is 59 years old and has lived in Yushan Street for most of her life. She lived near the park where the incident occurred. Before she retired, she was a staff member of the Yushan Street Office. She was usually kind and got along with her neighbors. Harmonious, never provoke disputes, social relations are also very simple, her husband died of illness early, and one daughter married to another place. As far as her own situation is concerned, it is difficult to find the motive for her killing, maybe it is the same as the previous two cases , she is just a prop, the murderer may need an elderly woman as a victim in order to imitate a certain case."

"As to how she appeared in the park, we also found the answer with the assistance of a policeman from the Yushan Street Police Station. According to the policeman: Yesterday evening, Liang Yan reported to the police station, claiming that the puppy she raised It was stolen, and the police learned more about the situation, and found that Liang Yan accidentally lost the dog while she was walking the dog in the park. However, the kind police went with her to the park to help find it, but they found two There was no sign of the puppy for many hours. Seeing that it was getting late, the police advised Liang Yan to go back first, but Liang Yan said that the puppy was her lifeline, and she would never go home until she found it. The police saw her firm attitude, and she wanted to I was on duty, so I had to tell her a few words, and then I went back to the office. By the way, you have seen him, he was the first policeman to arrive at the scene in the second case."

"Does Liang Yan go to the park to walk the dog every evening?" Han Yin immediately asked after Wu Bin finished speaking.

"Yes, that's what she told the police." Wu Bin nodded.

"From this point of view, the murderer probably stole the puppy, which shows that he has a certain understanding of Liang Yan's situation and living habits, and it also proves that he has been lurking in Yushan Street." Gu Feifei concluded.

"Then which direction are we going to investigate next? By the way, have you found a precedent for the third case?" Wu Bin asked.

Han Yin and Gu Feifei looked at each other quickly, pondered for a moment, and said: "It has not been found yet, so the next focus is to investigate the third case and dig deeper into the information of the victim Liang Yan. Maybe apart from age, appearance Wait, there is a certain quality in her that the murderer needs." Han Yin paused for a moment, then smiled and said, "But there has just been a fire in your bureau, there must be a lot of aftermath work waiting for you to deal with, Liang Yan's Let us do the investigation."

"That's good, it's enough for me to be busy..." Wu Bin cast a grateful glance at Han Yin and Gu Feifei, then his expression became serious, and he sighed, "Oh! Maybe... maybe there is another arson case that requires me Come investigate!"

"Arson? Wasn't the fire caused by the aging circuit?" Gu Feifei asked pretending to be puzzled.

"'Circuit aging' is just an official phrase, used to fool the media. The specific reason is not clear, but the director wants me to end the fire as soon as possible, so as not to expand the situation and have a negative impact on the image of the bureau. It's just that I think..." Ever since the topic of the fire was brought up, Wu Bin seemed to be flickering, as if he didn't know whether to say something to Han Yin and Gu Feifei, so that he stopped in the middle of the sentence.He stared at Gu Feifei and Han Yin, and after deliberating for a while, he continued, "I think it is probably arson. I asked some colleagues about the situation at that time, and some of them said that the department received an emergency evacuation call. Some said they heard someone yelling that there was a fire in the corridor and asked everyone to gather in the yard, but at that time no one felt any signs of fire in the building. But they all thought that no one dared to make such a joke on the Municipal Public Security Bureau, so They were evacuated with the flow of people. I also focused on asking two staff members of the archives room, and they also said that they evacuated after receiving an evacuation call. At that time, everything in the archives room was normal and there was no smell of smoke. They are all very sure. Then, I asked the technical department to check the calls to various departments asking for emergency evacuation, and found that it was from a mobile phone with a newly activated card. The first call was to the monitoring room of the security department of the office building of the bureau. According to the security supervisor who answered the phone, the person on the phone demanded to turn off all equipment and power immediately, even the UPS (uninterruptible power supply) in an unquestionable tone, so as not to cause more damage due to the spread of the fire. The loss; and the second call was to the archives... Speaking of which, I think you should understand it very well, right?"

"Obviously 'evacuation first, fire later', intimidating the monitoring room to turn off the monitoring equipment, and transferring the staff of the archives away, the arsonist seemed invisible, set the fire calmly, and then quietly blended into the chaotic crowd No matter who it is, this person is too smart!" Gu Feifei sighed.

"He is not only smart, but also very familiar with the telephone and terrain of the office building of the Municipal Bureau. If there is no accident, the arsonist should come from within the Municipal Bureau." Han Yin took her words.

Wu Bin nodded, with a serious tone: "Yes, it must be that way, but what is the motive? Why would someone burn down the old archives?"

Gu Feifei exchanged glances with Han Yin again, made a gesture to end the conversation, and said: "Then let's do this first, you concentrate on the aftermath of the fire, and we will do our best for the case."

"By the way, you still have to do two things for us—investigate the policeman from the police station who helped Liang Yan find the puppy. It may not be a coincidence that he was involved in the last two cases; and you need to investigate Where is this address?" Han Yin handed Wu Bin a note.

"Room 279, No. 105, Lingshui Road, Fangfang Street." Wu Bin looked at the note in his hand and read out casually, "What's going on?"

"Check this address, it may be related to the case, it was thrown into the room by an anonymous person..." Han Yin briefly described the process of finding the envelope.

"This should be very important. I'll check it when I get back." Wu Bin raised the note in his hand and said, "By the way, I will leave the van and driver to you, so that it will be more convenient for you to go anywhere."

"Okay, then we'll be more polite." Gu Feifei said.

Section [-]: The Naked Corpse on a Snowy Night
According to the murderer's thinking in the first two crimes, he imitated unresolved cases; and it is said that the rape and murder case in Nagata City in the early years was successfully concluded. This case may mean that the case contains hidden information.In this way, the murderer seems to have suddenly changed his imitation thinking, but in fact it has not changed, and it is definitely a meaningful move to draw people's attention from Europe and the United States back to the local area.Perhaps the murderer wanted to express that the "rape and murder case" was not really solved. The so-called successful conclusion of the case actually created an "injustice case", that is to say, someone was wronged to death, and the murderer is still at large.

First of all, it is necessary to confirm whether the "rape and murder case" really exists.Originally, it was very simple to prove this point, as long as you apply for access to the declassified files, but the old archives suddenly caught fire, and all the files were burned. Discover something strange from that top-secret file.Thinking of Zhou Haishan's gaffe at the scene of the crime, the leader of the Changtian Public Security Bureau, and his leaving the scene halfway, plus the fire in the old archives room, and why he kept urging Wu Bin to find a non-painful reason Put an end to the fire incident as soon as possible. There are indications that Zhou Haishan is related to the fire.Not only that, if the "unjust case" does exist, Zhou Haishan is likely to be one of the manipulators, and even related to the real murderer.

Based on this factor, after discussing with Han Yin, Gu Feifei decided to temporarily conceal the relevant information about the rape and murder from Wu Bin, and even tore off the year, month, and date from the note to Wu Bin, leaving only the address part.On the one hand, Gu Feifei and Han Yin did not understand the relationship between Wu Bin and Zhou Haishan.If Wu Bin learned that his "big boss" was involved in the fire and the early cases, would he still be so persistent?If he is a follower, he will definitely stand on Zhou Haishan's side, and the investigation of the case will fall into a very passive situation, and there is a possibility that it will even be suspended.After all, this is Zhou Haishan's one-acre-three-point land. With his status, if he refuses to let you proceed with the case, it will only take a few minutes.On the other hand, this temporary avoidance is also a kind of protection for Wu Bin.The so-called arms cannot beat the thighs. I am afraid that it will be difficult for the young captain of the criminal police to fight against the wily chief. Although people often say that justice will eventually defeat evil, in fact justice is always late. She was sacrificed in the process, which Gu Feifei didn't want to see.So from this point, it can be seen that this woman with a cold and arrogant appearance is actually full of humanity in her heart.

The current investigation idea of ​​the support team is not to reveal the involvement of Director Zhou Haishan and the case for the time being. They will bypass Wu Bin and Zhou Haishan to find clues, and communicate with Wu Bin after finding some relevant evidence.If he is a good policeman who follows the evidence and is not afraid of power, the support team will join hands with him to uncover the truth of the unjust case, and then solve the "4" case!

The support group went to the Yushan Sub-district Office by car, and wanted to know about Liang Yan's work before her retirement.

The victim chosen by the murderer in the first two crimes was roughly the same as the victim in the case he wanted to imitate.According to Zhang Songlin, the victim of the rape and murder case was a young single woman, but the murderer killed an old woman in the third crime.But the murderer's choice of Liang Yan was definitely premeditated. He stole her puppy, kept it in the park, and finally chose the right time to strike.Based on Han Yin's analysis, Liang Yan must have some kind of traits related to the rape and murder case. It should not be age and appearance. Could it be social relationship or occupation?

Halfway through the drive, Gu Feifei received a call from Wu Bin.Wu Bin attached great importance to the information on the note, and when he returned to the team, he asked the relevant personnel to quickly check the address, and soon the result came back—the Fang Street written on the note was actually the original name of Yushan Street.In the early 80s, Fangfang Street was renamed Yushan Street, and Lingshui Road was changed to Huanan Road.No. 279, Lingshui Road, Fangfang Street, which is now No. 279, Huanan Road, Yushan Street, is now a unit building in a residential area. It used to be a residential area for the family members of a machinery factory, but because the machinery factory closed down in the 90s , so the specific house number "Room 105" cannot be verified.

All three cases occurred in Yushan Street, and the address on the note was related to Yushan Street, and someone deliberately passed it to the support team, explaining that the address and date were related to the case.If there is no accident, Room 1979, No. 12, Lingshui Road, Fangfang Street, December 28, 279, is the time and place where the rape and murder case occurred in the early years.

After clarifying what the information on the note refers to, Gu Feifei and Han Yin were planning to chat with the staff of the sub-district office one by one, especially the department staff who had worked with Liang Yan before, but it seems unnecessary now.The person who can connect Liang Yan with the case that happened in 1979 must have worked in the street office for at least 30 years, and there are only two street workers who meet this requirement. One is the section chief of the street civil affairs department, and the other It is the director of the street.Gu Feifei and Han Yin decided to communicate with these two people first, and if it didn't work, they would find some retirees to understand the situation.

The first person I contacted was the chief of the civil affairs department, he was an old man in his sixtieth year.As soon as he came up, he said that he heard that Liang Yan had been killed, but he didn't know the specific situation very well.This is not a lie. After the details of the first case were circulated through the local network, it brought unprecedented pressure to the city leaders and the police. Therefore, in the next two cases, the police immediately closed the crime scene. Relevant personnel are also strictly ordered not to disclose any details unless required for investigation.

Later, the chief of civil affairs said that he was about the same age as Liang Yan, walked around a lot, and was familiar with her situation. If the police wanted to know about Liang Yan's life, they could ask him.

Hearing what he said, Han Yin knew that he had found the right person, so he asked straight to the point: "How many women were there in the department where Liang Yan worked?"

The civil affairs section chief recalled briefly, and said, "Including Liang Yan, there are four in total."

"Do you know the recent situation of those people?" Han Yin asked again.

"They are older than Liang Yan and retired earlier. They are all in good health now. They have been in contact with Liang Yan all the time. I haven't heard of anyone having any conflicts or enmity with Liang Yan? They are alone now..."

"They're all alive, so there's no need to introduce them." Gu Feifei waved her hand, interrupting the civil affairs section chief.

"What do you mean by 'all are alive'? I thought, you think that among these old ladies, someone killed Liang Yan." The civil affairs section chief looked puzzled, probably not sure about the purpose of this questioning. .

"Who is Liang Yan closer to here? Did anyone die long ago?" Han Yin asked next.

"In fact, there is one. Her name is Bai Xiuyun. She came from the same year as Liang Yan. Although they are not in the same department, they have a good relationship." It suddenly dimmed, and said in a mournful tone, "Xiuyun is a poor girl. Not long after her marriage, her husband who worked in a machinery factory died of a family-inherited lung disease. After dealing with the funeral, she found out that she was more than two months pregnant. Everyone in the world advised her to abort the child and find another one while she was young, but she insisted on giving birth to the child and wanted to raise the child by herself. Unfortunately, she also suffered a catastrophe and died a very humiliating death. Rape first and then kill."

“白秀云是不是住在方程街凌水路279号105室?出事那天是1979年12月28号,对吗?”顾菲菲有些激动,她知道离早年那起奸杀案越来越近了。

"It seems so. After all, it's been so many years, and I don't remember the details clearly, but it did happen in the winter of 1979." The civil affairs section chief hesitated for a moment, and said with a puzzled face, "Didn't you investigate Liang Yan's case?" Why? Why did you bring up Bai Xiuyun again? Is there any relationship between their cases?"

"Apart from what you just said, do you understand Bai Xiuyun's other circumstances, including the information about her being raped and killed?" Gu Feifei put aside the questions from the civil affairs section chief and continued to ask along her own train of thought.

"Oh, I don't know her very well. I heard Liang Yan mention those things just now. As for Bai Xiuyun's situation, maybe our director Chen Hui knows a little bit about it. They were in the same department back then, and they were all working in the propaganda department." Civil Affairs The section chief bowed, stood up from the chair, and said, "He should be here now, how about I take you to find him?"

"Don't bother, we'll just go there by ourselves, thank you for providing the information." Gu Feifei nodded slightly, and took the lead out of the civil affairs department office.

"It's okay, it's okay, it should be." The civil affairs section chief sent a few people out, and said courteously, "The director's office is the first one on the left on the third floor."

Chen Hui, the director of the sub-district office, gave Han Yin the feeling that he had both an official air and a hint of scholarly demeanor.

He is in his early 50s, with a slightly sparse back and shiny hair, a pair of delicate gold-rimmed glasses on the bridge of his nose, clean face, full of vigor and vigor.

After talking with the chief of the civil affairs section, it can be basically concluded that the murderer chose Liang Yan as the target in order to attract her good colleague and friend Bai Xiuyun, and then lead to the "rape and murder case".It can be said that Liang Yan's value has been exhausted at this point, and there is no need to make a fuss about her, so after reporting to Chen Hui, Han Yin directly focused on the rape and murder case.

As soon as Bai Xiuyun's name was mentioned, Chen Hui showed a sad face. He was slightly stunned, took off his glasses, rubbed his eyes, and said with emotion: "That scene was so shocking, I don't think I can get it out of my mind for the rest of my life." Delete the picture of that morning. As you said, it was the morning of December 1979, 12. There were snowflakes in the sky, and the courtyard of Xiuyun’s house was completely white. Xiuyun sat on the tree tied to the courtyard On the swing on the branch of the old jujube tree, she lowered her head and held the rope with both hands. Her skin like creamy skin was covered with snow flakes, blending into the flawless whiteness around her... She sat silently, making people feel very peaceful and peaceful. Tranquility..." Chen Hui finally couldn't hold back, tears overflowed from the corners of his eyes.He looked away from the window and continued muttering, "She is like a sleeping snow child, or like a princess in a white dress in a fairy tale, that is the final frame of life of my colleague who was sitting across the table from me the day before." The picture of death is completely different from the death I imagined, but it is also extremely shocking. I can't imagine how cruel it must be to commit such a murderous act..."

As expected of being a propaganda officer, Chen Hui's literary talents are quite good. A murder scene was described so poignantly and beautifully by Chen Hui, and the picture was so full of sense that everyone followed him into a faint sadness unconsciously.

"So, you were there at the time?" Han Yin asked breaking the sad atmosphere.

"Yes, back then I lived not far from Xiuyun's house. That morning, I heard someone shouting desperately on the street, 'killed, killed', so I ran out with the neighbors around, and saw what I just said That scene..." Chen Hui took out a tissue from the tissue box on the desk, wiped away the tears from the corners of his eyes, put on his glasses again, and said, "Then the police came and sealed off the scene, and the big guys left .”

"How much do you know about the murderer who was caught later?" Gu Feifei followed Han Yin's words and asked.

"I don't know much. The police blocked the news back then. I also heard it from hearsay. I don't know if it's true or not. I heard that a man who worked as a salesperson in a street department store was arrested. Maybe it was him." Chen Hui twitched his nose twice. , said, "By the way, Zhou Haishan, director of the Municipal Public Security Bureau, also participated in Xiuyun's case, and he even asked us for questioning. Why, there is no communication between you?"

"Uh, we just learned about Bai Xiuyun by chance when we were investigating Liang Yan's case, so we haven't had time to communicate with your city bureau yet." Gu Feifei replied calmly.

"Why, do you think these two cases are related?" Chen Hui also raised the same question as the civil affairs section chief.

"Don't you have anything to add about the murderer?" Han Yin asked rhetorically.

"It's really gone." Chen Hui spread his hands and said angrily, "He didn't want money or sex, he just killed people and insulted them by putting them on a swing. If you want me to say, the murderer Definitely a psychopath."

"Okay, let's do this for now. If you remember anything, you can call me." Gu Feifei stood up, took out a business card from her pocket and handed it to Chen Hui.

"Definitely, definitely." Chen Hui took the business card, opened the desk drawer, and put it in the business card holder.

Gu Feifei turned around and was about to leave. Han Yin motioned her to wait a moment with his eyes, and then said to Chen Hui: "Bai Xiuyun and his wife have passed away, what about the child?"

"Oh! At that time, Xiuyun's child seemed to be less than three years old. It was a boy. It was so pitiful to have no parents at such a young age." Chen Hui sighed deeply, "At that time, Xiuyun's mother-in-law had not passed away, but she was alone The widowed old man is not in good health, so he can't take care of such a young child. I heard that in desperation, the child was adopted to a relative from out of town, and the grandparent and grandson moved out of town together."

"Is there any news about the child? Is there any adoption record on the street?" Han Yin asked.

"How can there be any adoption records! At that time, there was not so much attention to it now. There was no need for any household registration or adoption procedures. The child was taken away in a daze, and it was enough to go directly to the family's household registration." Chen Hui squeezed out. With a wry smile, he said regretfully, "Actually, Liang Yan knows a lot about the child, but it's a pity that she's gone."

"That's all right, don't bother me, we're leaving now." Han Yin got up and said politely.

"There's nothing to disturb, it's all I should do. If you need to know anything else, you can come over at any time, and the street office will fully cooperate with this case." Chen Hui also got up and stretched out his hand, shaking hands with Han Yin, The attitude is very sincere.

Coming out of the street office, everyone got into the van, the driver asked where they were going next, Gu Feifei and Han Yin exchanged glances, and said knowingly back to the criminal police team.

As soon as the car drove out, Ai Xiaomei, who had no chance to speak for a long time, couldn't help expressing her point of view: "Why do I think this street director is a bit weird?"

"Yeah, Xiaomei is right..." Du Yingxiong seemed unable to hold back any longer, and immediately took up Ai Xiaomei's words, "I don't know if this uncle is too educated, so he can express a That's what the murder scene said."

Han Yin smiled: "You both feel right. The topic of Bai Xiuyun did put a lot of pressure on Chen Hui."

"Is it micro-expression interpretation again? Tell me about Mr. Han, and let us learn a lot." Ai Xiaomei tugged on Han Yin's arm and said coquettishly.

Gu Feifei glared at Ai Xiaomei, and said to Han Yin, "Is that the 'rubbing eyes' action before answering the question?"

"Yes." Han Yin nodded and said, "When people suddenly face a stressful topic, they often make a subconscious action of 'blocking vision' to seek psychological comfort by avoiding it for a moment." Indian replied.

"Mr. Han, you should go to the TV station's "Extremely Amazing" program. It will be no problem to win the grand prize!" Ai Xiaomei had a playful look on her face, "Hehe, you must bring me, the little girl!"

"Yes, yes, take me too, didn't you say you can bring two people?" Du Yingxiong also booed.

"Hehe, you two are talking so lively, it seems like we're going to make a decision. It's not that simple, the best micro-expression expert in China, 'Mr. Jiang', makes mistakes, let alone me!" Han Yin saw The two children talked happily, and they became interested, "you should go if you have the chance, but I can tell you a little trick. In fact, the most meaningful way to interpret whether a person is lying is often when you speak for the first time. His reaction. Most liars will have a subconscious comforting action at the beginning, such as someone pursing their lips, someone licking their lips... Most girls will have an action of tidying their bangs on their foreheads, or turning their heads slightly to avoid their eyes and tidy their ears If the boys come up with the lines on their backs, they will often have a slight bowing movement before answering the question. In what we often say, it is called "bow your head and ponder a little", which is actually repeating the memory in your brain. Of course this is not It remains the same, and the specific interpretation depends on the situation at the time. Just like the "visual blockage" I just mentioned, if you suddenly encounter a sad topic, similar actions will occur. But judging from Chen Hui's description of the case, I don’t think he’s sad at all, on the contrary, he’s enjoying himself.”

Section [-]: Murderer, Murderer
The Yushan Sub-district Office confirmed the existence of the rape and murder case, and the director Zhou Haishan was one of the investigators of the case, which confirmed these two points. Han Yin and Gu Feifei felt that it was time to find out what Wu Bin said.After all, without Wu Bin's support, it is difficult to fully understand the true facts of the rape and murder case.They firmly believe that if they can thoroughly understand the cases in the early years, they will definitely bring a key breakthrough to the current "4" case.

However, they couldn't find Wu Bin in the criminal police team. When they asked other police officers in the special case team, they all said they didn't know his whereabouts, and even when they called him, the phone was prompted to shut down.This is really abnormal. What happened to Wu Bin this afternoon?After waiting in the criminal police team for a long time, Wu Bin was never seen. In desperation, everyone had to go back to the guest house before making plans.

Early the next morning, everyone got into the car and prepared to go to the criminal police team. After sitting down, they saw that the driver was actually Wu Bin with a tired face.

Wu Bin was not in a hurry to start the car. He turned his head and glanced at the faces of the people one by one. For some reason, his eyes were full of scrutiny...

"Captain Wu, if you have anything to say, just say it, please rest assured, we are definitely worthy of your trust." Han Yin sensed that Wu Bin was in some kind of trouble at the moment, hesitating, and tentatively said in a sincere tone.

Perhaps because he was moved by Han Yin, Wu Bin's tense expression slowly relaxed, and then he narrated his decision after thinking and struggling all night.

It turned out that yesterday afternoon, Wu Bin went to several small shops near the city bureau that dealt in mobile phones and mobile phone cards to try to investigate, hoping to try his luck to see if he could find someone who sold the mobile phone cards to the arsonists, but he did not expect to be successful.According to a clerk in a small shop, the mobile phone card was the first business he did when he opened the shop in the morning, so he had some impressions of the card buyers.But to Wu Bin's great surprise, the clerk's description of the card buyer's appearance was very similar to the director Zhou Haishan. Reminiscent of the director leaving in the middle of the investigation site, Wu Bin had to connect the arsonist in the archives room with the director.But why did the director burn the files?What is his relationship with the murderer's third case?Wu Bin thought hard for a long time, but he couldn't understand it, but one thing is certain, there must be some shady activities involved, or even violations of the law.

Director Zhou Haishan not only has a deep foundation in the city bureau, but also serves as the deputy mayor. He has a close relationship with the city leaders, and even has his network in the province.Even if such a person has evidence against him in his hands, it may be difficult for Wu Bin to shake his power in a short time.This made Wu Bin have to make a decision, whether to continue to investigate the director along this line, or to end the fire incident in a daze as the director thought.The former may cause him to lose everything he has gained over the years, while the latter seriously touches his moral bottom line as a policeman.In this way, for most of the afternoon and the long night that followed, Wu Bin has been wandering and struggling between his future and his morality. Should he choose to turn a deaf ear to the crime and put his future first, or choose to be a good policeman with a clear conscience? ?

It is gratifying that Wu Bin finally chose the latter.It is necessary to pay attention to methods and methods. He knows that it is difficult for him to penetrate into the criminal nature of the director. Only by relying on the strength of the support team can he protect himself to the maximum extent and ensure the final completion of the mission.

Wu Bin's attitude was exactly what Han Yin and Gu Feifei wanted, and the two immediately reported to Wu Bin the relevant investigation information of the rape and murder case they had recently acquired...

The old archives were burned, so that all the records related to the rape and murder case were "destroyed". If you want to know the specifics of the case, you can only rely on the dictation of those who participated in the case.The problem is that Director Zhou Haishan’s purpose of arson is to prevent the task force from knowing too much about the case, so right now they can only keep secret and act in a low-key manner, so as not to make Zhou Haishan feel the pressure, in order to prevent more incidents from happening, which will make the investigation more difficult. The entry point is difficult to grasp.

Those who can have a comprehensive understanding of the case must be the core investigators. If the murderer was wronged back then, it is hard to say if this is Zhou Haishan's individual behavior or the collective behavior of the entire core investigation team.If it is the latter, then things will be difficult. Now under the situation of "death without evidence", no one would be willing to take responsibility for the injustice of that year.And this is a later story, just one of the difficulties. The first thorny problem to be solved is to find out the list of core case-handling personnel back then.

Due to the lack of fanfare, after discussing with Wu Bin, Han Yin and Gu Feifei, it was decided to start with Zhou Haishan's background information.They reviewed Zhou Haishan's work history and found that in 1979, he was serving in the "First Team of the Major Case Team" of the Municipal Bureau. From this, they deduced that the case of Bai Xiuyun's murder was probably organized by this team. of.Later, Han Yin and the others consulted the "Historical Yearbook" of the Nagata City Public Security Bureau, and found the list of members of the important case team that year.

After seeing this list, Wu Bin was stunned. It seemed that someone on the list might have some relationship with him.

"Why, is there someone you know?" Han Yin asked immediately after seeing the change in Wu Bin's expression.

"Yes, my master is also among them." Wu Bin pointed to a name on the list and said, "He is the old captain of the criminal police team and has retired for many years."

"How is your relationship?" Gu Feifei interrupted and asked.

"Love is like father and son." Wu Bin said bluntly.

"That's good. Since he has this kind of relationship with you, and he doesn't have any scruples about his status and rank, let's do his work. Maybe he will be willing to tell the truth." Gu Feifei continued.

"This... this... I'm afraid it's not easy to handle." Wu Bin faltered and said in a long voice, with a troubled expression on his face, "My master is suffering from lymphoma, which has reached the terminal stage, and he is now living in the hospital. Time is running out. Isn't it inappropriate to disturb his old man for such a thing at this time?"

Gu Feifei is impatient, seeing Wu Bin's indecisive look, she became a little anxious, but just as she was about to speak, Han Yin stopped her with a look.

Wu Bin can only decide whether to ask the old captain or not. No matter how difficult the investigation of the case is, a solution will eventually be found.If this talk irritated the old captain, accelerated the time of his death, or made him "go" unsettled, then for Wu Bin, who had a deep relationship with him, his conscience would be troubled for the rest of his life.So at this time, it is understandable for Wu Bin to make any choice, and outsiders cannot ask him to do anything.Because after all the pain is borne by him, and the final result can only depend on Wu Bin's own choice.

Wu Bin took out a cigarette and lit it silently.The room was extremely quiet, and everyone was silent, all staring at him, waiting for his decision.After a cigarette was burned out, Wu Bin squeezed out the butt of the cigarette, stood up, and said lightly: "Let's go, go to the cancer hospital!"

Nagata Cancer Hospital, Intensive Care Ward.

Through the glass on the door of the ward, Wu Bin saw the master holding his wife's hand and chatting.The master seemed to be in good spirits today. I don't know what he said, but the master's wife kept pursing her lips and smiling, and Wu Bin stopped suddenly when he was about to push the door.The master was hospitalized again this time, and the hospital said that his condition had reached a very critical stage, so the family members were asked to make corresponding preparations in advance.Chances to chat like this are probably not too many for the teacher's wife, Wu Bin really can't bear to disturb them.

After hesitating again and again, Wu Bin turned the doorknob cruelly, pushed the door open and walked into the ward.

"Xiao Bin is here, look at you kid, what are you doing with so many things?" The teacher's wife greeted Wu Bin affectionately, and took the fruits and nutritional supplements he was carrying and put them beside the bed. On the small coffee table, "You haven't come these two days, but you have missed your master, and you are always talking about you when you have nothing to do."

"Uh, I've been really busy these two days, don't blame me, old man." Wu Bin walked to the hospital bed, carefully helped the master tuck the quilt twice, smiled at the master, and said, "When this part is over, I will bring your 'grandson' to accompany you well."

Wu Bin's parents lived abroad all year round. He had no other relatives in Changtian, so he almost regarded his master and his wife as his parents.Before he got married, he basically lived and ate at the master's house. Later, when he had a child, he was sent to the master's house without anyone to take care of him. Now the child treats the master and the master's mother more affectionately than his own grandfather and grandmother.

"Don't listen to your teacher's mother's nonsense, you should be busy and busy with your work, it's more important to do business, don't always run to me." The master said so, but it can be seen that Wu Bin is in a better mood than before. , propped himself up and sat up.

"By the way, Master, these are experts from the Serious Case Support Department of the Criminal Investigation Bureau, and they are here to assist the Municipal Bureau in handling cases. I heard that I want to visit you, so I will follow you." Wu Bin supported his master on the bed At the head of the bed, while pointing to Han Yin, Gu Feifei and others, he introduced them.

Hearing what Wu Bin said, several people hurried over, shook hands with the old man respectively, and said something like wishing him a speedy recovery.

The master greeted his wife to bring chairs for the guests to sit on, and said to his wife: "My wife, it's noon, and I want to eat dumplings. Let's go to the cafeteria to get some!"

"Okay, okay, I'll go right away." She has lived with her wife who is a criminal policeman all her life, and she can also see that Wu Bin must have encountered an important case when he brought so many people here. While whispering, "Your master is in a particularly good mood today. He even ate half a bowl of porridge in the morning. You are not confused. You stay and talk to him for a while, but don't make him too tired."

"Understood Mrs. Ma, please go slowly..." Wu Bin said with concern.

As soon as the master's wife left the house, the master's expression became serious. He looked at Han Yin, Gu Feifei and others, then turned to Wu Bin and said, "Come on, even the Criminal Investigation Bureau is here. It seems that the case is not small?"

Wu Bin lowered his head, having difficulty opening his mouth.The master has always been his idol, not only taught him how to handle cases, but also taught him how to be an upright policeman. He was very, very afraid, afraid that the next question would reveal the unknown side of the master.

"Bai...Do you remember the case of Bai Xiuyun?" Wu Bin said after hesitation for a long time.

"Who? Whose case are you talking about? Is it the '1979' case in 12?" The master was startled, and a complicated look flashed across his eyes.

Seeing that the master's reaction was a little fierce, but his face was not flustered, but he seemed to have a hint of surprise on his face. Wu Bin let out a long breath and said, "Yes, that's the case. Did you participate in that year? We want to hear about the case." .”

The master calmed down, glanced at Han Yin and the others one by one, and finally returned his gaze to Wu Bin's face, and said flatly, "Why do you suddenly think of asking about that case?"

"Master, it's like this..." Wu Bin took the master's words and explained the three cases in detail from the beginning to the end, then the fire in the archives room, and their suspicion of the director Zhou Haishan, etc., and then lit up "We feel that the murderer in Bai Xiuyun's case was probably wronged."

"From this point of view, Zhou Haishan and the others did tamper with the case back then, otherwise they wouldn't be so panic-stricken that they even burned the old file room." The master nodded slightly, took a deep breath, and said, "Since you mentioned today Now, let me talk about the questions that have been accumulated in my heart for more than 30 years. In general, the case was concluded too hastily, there were many doubts that were not clarified, and torture may have been used in the interrogation, so I agree with you That’s probably an unjust case.” The master paused, recalled for a while, and continued, “The Bai Xiuyun case is deeply memorable to me, not only because of the reason just mentioned, but more importantly because it is The first case I participated in when I transferred from the army to the major case team was involved in the investigation. The general situation is as follows: At about 6 o'clock in the morning on the day of the incident, a neighbor next to Bai Xiuyun's family heard a burst of heart-piercing cries from a child The crying lasted for a long time, and the neighbors were a little worried, so they came out to see what happened to Bai Xiuyun's house, only to see Bai Xiuyun sitting on the swing in her yard like a big snowman..."

"Please explain in more detail, it will be very helpful for us to analyze the behavior characteristics of the murderer." Han Yin took out a recording pen from his backpack and put it on the coffee table beside the hospital bed.

"Okay." The master was silent for a moment, carefully searched the memories of the year in his mind, and said, "At that time, the courtyard door and the door were open, and the living room was in chaos. Bai Xiuyun's pajamas were torn and thrown on the ground. She The son was sleeping on a small bed in the living room. The forensic doctor judged that Bai Xiuyun was strangled to death in the living room, and then dragged to the yard and placed on a swing. The time of death was about 9 hours before the body was found. When he was hit hard on a large area, his lower body was stuffed with two colored crayons. There were signs of sexual intercourse before his death, but the damage to his lower body was not serious. Semen spots were found on the inner thighs. There was a box of crayons on the coffee table in the living room. The ones from Kaifeng were missing, but the two stuffed in Bai Xiuyun's lower body were missing. The snow fell in the early morning, so no footprints were found, but a group that did not belong to Bai Xiuyun was extracted from the living room sofa, coffee table, etc., and on the crayon box The fingerprints, the fingerprints on the tea table and the sofa are very messy, and it has been identified as coming from the same person.” The master picked up the water glass on the coffee table by the bed, moistened his throat and said, “It was the end of the 70s, almost fresh There was a murder case, not to mention such a weird and cruel method of committing the crime, so when the case came out, it could almost be described as shocking the entire country. Considering the bad nature of the case, once it was leaked, it might cause widespread social panic; The current situation is complicated, and at the same time, I am also worried that the enemy forces will take the opportunity to disturb the people's hearts, so that the city bureau immediately sealed off the case after the incident, and assigned the first team of the major crime team, which I was in at the time, with the highest overall detection rate, in a 'secret' way,' The time limit' was used to solve the case. After the case was closed, all the materials were archived and sealed, and no one could access them without the approval of the leaders of the Municipal Bureau, and the public was not informed of the case, as if the case had never happened."

"Why did you catch the wrong murderer?" Gu Feifei interrupted and asked while the master was taking a breath.

"Well, it's actually mainly because the case-handling team chose the wrong detection direction at the beginning." The master sighed and said, "At that time, the team focused on the detection of colored crayons. At that time, commodity resources were scarce, and colored crayons were very bad. I bought it, and it was very expensive. Bai Xiuyun would not be willing to buy it if she dragged a child by herself, so someone must have given it to her. And giving such an expensive thing to a single young woman, I am afraid there is something unclear about it. Because of the ambiguous relationship, the team made a preliminary judgment: Bai Xiuyun's case is likely to be a case of unsuccessful courtship, which led to anger, rape and murder, and I hope the murderer can be drawn out through colored crayons."

"Based on this judgment, we secretly questioned Bai Xiuyun's colleagues in her work unit and her social relations. According to Liang Yan, her colleague and good friend: at noon on the day Bai Xiuyun was killed, a short, plain-looking man came to the work unit. When Bai Xiuyun came back in the afternoon, Liang Yan questioned her. She said that the man was her junior high school classmate and was pursuing her. Liang Yan felt that the crayons were probably given by the man's hospitality. Through Liang Yan's description, We found the man. His name was Xu Hong, a salesperson in a state-run department store. He admitted that he was dating Bai Xiuyun, but he denied that the crayons were sent by him. But after we compared his fingerprints, we found that his fingerprints were the same as ours. The fingerprints taken from the crayon box matched, so he was taken to the team for interrogation."

"At that time, almost everyone in the group was inclined to believe that Xu Hong was the murderer, and further tests on the semen also coincided with Xu Hong's blood type. From this, it seemed that the chain of evidence had been formed. Since the time limit for solving the case was up, the market The Li and the Bureau continued to exert pressure on the case handling team, so when they thought the evidence was convincing but Xu Hong’s confession had not yet been obtained, the head of the case handling team rushed to report to the Bureau that the murderer had been caught, and the Bureau leader was very happy. Immediately report to the city, and the city leaders immediately expressed that they would reward them.”

"Unexpectedly, the subsequent interrogation was not smooth. For the evidence we presented, Xu Hong gave plausible explanations. He admitted that the crayons were sent by him, but the reason why he denied the crayons at the beginning was because he was the one who gave the crayons. At the same time, he also admitted that the semen of Bai Xiuyun's inner thigh belonged to him, but emphasized that they had consensual sex with each other at noon. In fact, what he said was quite in line with the actual situation, and there was no rape on the body severe lacerations. But the case-handling team was on the verge of getting rid of it at that time. After releasing Xu Hong and looking for clues again, there was no time at all. Moreover, the leaders of the bureau and the city couldn’t explain what they said. "It's him, it's him, it's not him, it's him." Perhaps it was because I was afraid that I just joined the group, and I was afraid that I would talk nonsense and not know my details. The interrogation continued until the early morning, and the group leader and Zhou Haishan found They gave me a reason to send me away, saying that I should go back to the dormitory to rest first, and pick up their shift in the morning to continue the interrogation. But the next morning, when I arrived in the group, I heard that Xu Hong had already been laid down. He admitted that he accidentally strangled Bai Xiuyun when he raped Bai Xiuyun with too much force, and signed the confession, and he was shot shortly afterwards. I still remember that morning, I walked into the interrogation room and found There are bloodstains, I think it should be the imprint left by Xu Hong when he was tortured to extract a confession..."

"Does Xu Hong have any witnesses who were not at the scene when the crime happened?" Han Yin asked.

"Yes, but not enough." The master nodded and shook his head again, and said, "Xu Hong's situation is similar to that of Bai Xiuyun. His wife died of illness early and left him a boy, but he married earlier, and there should be seven or eight children at that time." According to the child, on the night of the incident, he had a bad cold and had a high fever, Xu Hong accompanied him and took care of him all night. But because he was a direct relative and he was a child, and he had a He had a bad cold and his memory may have been confused, so his testimony was not accepted."

"Who took care of Xu Hong's child?" Han Yin asked again.

"His grandparents were all there at the time, so he probably lived with them!" said the master.

Han Yin nodded and looked at Gu Feifei, Gu Feifei shook her head lightly, indicating that there was no problem.Just when the teacher's wife came back with an insulated lunch box, everyone stopped talking.

"Honey, how about a taste of the dumplings? I know you have a tricky mouth and I'm not used to other people's dumplings, so I specially borrowed other people's materials to wrap them for you." The teacher opened the lid of the lunch box and sent the steaming dumplings to you. Talk to the master.

"Not bad, not bad, the taste is really good." The master picked up a dumpling, put it in his mouth and chewed hard, then rushed the lunch box towards Han Yin and the others, and said, "Come on, try them all, and try my wife's craftsmanship." !"

"No, I'm very sorry to interrupt your rest for such a long time. We still have cases to deal with, so we won't delay your lunch." Gu Feifei declined.

After Gu Feifei said this, everyone stood up and said goodbye to the master.Wu Bin told his master and his wife to pay more attention to rest, take care of their health, and call him whenever they have something to do, and then followed everyone out of the ward.The moment he walked out of the ward and closed the door, Wu Bin couldn't help but stop and look at the master, with an inexplicable sadness in his heart, as if this parting would be forever...

At the elevator entrance in the hospital corridor, everyone was waiting for the elevator. Han Yinxiang suddenly remembered something, and asked Wu Bin, "By the way, how is the investigation by the policeman from the Yushan Street Police Station?"

"Oh, I asked someone to check. The report was handed over to me, but I haven't had time to read it yet." Wu Bin opened his handbag while talking, and took out a page and handed it to Han Yin.

Han Yin took the report, and the rest gathered around and stared at the report together. The report read: Xu Yang, male, 41 years old, native of this city, home address: Yushan Street, Xicheng District, Changtian City... Xu Yang Graduated from the Provincial Police Academy, initially entered the police force and was assigned to be a policeman at the Huanghe Road Police Station.Two years ago, due to personal reasons, I applied to be transferred to the Yushan Street Police Station and was approved by the organization...

The investigation report was written very concisely, only about a hundred words, but it was enough for everyone to guess the identity of this policeman. If nothing else, he should be the son of Xu Hong who was wronged and died that year!So, why did Xu Yang request to be transferred to the Yushan Street Police Station two years ago?Is it just a coincidence that he appeared in the latter two cases?What's more, the murderer's third crime seems to have the purpose of overturning Xu Hong's case. Could it be that he is complaining for his father?It seems that Xu Yang is very suspicious... Everyone walked into the elevator while discussing Xu Yang's problem.Seeing that the elevator door was about to close, a man wearing a hat suddenly appeared out of nowhere. He stretched out his hand to hold the elevator door, but when he was about to enter, he withdrew his body abruptly for some reason, lowered his head, turned around and rushed in a panic. Go up the stairs.

"This man is sick. What do you mean, are you afraid that some of us will eat him?" Ai Xiaomei pressed the elevator switch angrily.

"Why does this person look familiar? I seem to have seen it somewhere before, wait a minute, peaked cap...he is the one who delivered the letter to the guest house!" It was too late for Du Yingxiong to react, and the elevator had already moved downwards.

After the door of an elevator in the lobby of the cancer hospital opened, a group of people rushed out from it.They have a clear division of labor: one goes straight to the safe passage on the left hand side of the elevator, one quickly rushes through the lobby to the gate of the hospital, another two beautiful women are in charge of vigilantly patrolling around in the lobby, and one is on duty at the door. Show the certificate and ask the security guard to take him to the monitoring room immediately—the "messenger" is likely to be the murderer. Since he met unexpectedly in the hospital, he cannot be easily let go.

A few minutes later, the red iron door of the safe passage was pushed open, and Du Yingxiong came out escorting a man wearing a peaked cap.Gu Feifei winked at him, signaling to take him directly to the car outside.

After taking him to the car, everyone looked at him carefully and they all knew him. He was the assistant policeman who was with policeman Xu Yang at the scene of the second case.At that time, Du Yingxiong was patronizing and vomiting, and he only had a vague impression of the auxiliary police, not as deep as the rest.

"You followed us to the hospital?" Gu Feifei frowned and asked with her head raised.

"No...no, why am I following you? If I follow you, I won't take an elevator by mistake! I'm going to the hospital to see a friend." The police officer defended.

"You always sent the note to the guest house, right?" Gu Feifei followed up and asked.

"Yes, it's me." The police assistant nodded and said submissively, "But...but I delivered it for someone else."

"For whom?" Gu Feifei asked.

"This... this..." The police assistant hesitated, as if he didn't want to betray the people behind the scenes.

"Do you know that maybe the person you helped deliver the note is the murderer who killed someone on Yushan Street. Do you want to be an accomplice by helping him?" Du Yingxiong pointed to the police assistant's nose and said sternly.

"No...no...no, Xu Yang can't be the murderer..." Realizing that he had slipped his tongue, the assistant policeman lowered his voice and said, "He...he just wanted to help you solve the case quickly."

"You mean that Xu Yang instructed you to deliver the note to us?" Gu Feifei continued, turning her head to meet Han Yin and Wu Bin's eyes.

Han Yin naturally understood what she meant. When he just learned that Xu Yang, the policeman, was the son of Xu Hong, he felt that he had a motive for committing the crime. Now that it is proved that he instructed the police assistant to send the note, his suspicion is even greater.Han Yin pushed the glasses on the bridge of his nose, took a deep look at the police officer, and said, "Why do you think Xu Yang is not the murderer?"

"I can't tell you that, anyway, I've been with Brother Xu for quite a long time, and I think he's a very nice person." The police assistant hesitated for a moment, and continued, "Let's be honest with you, about Brother Xu's father. He told me about it. He said that the reason why he became a policeman was to clear his father's name one day. For this reason, he has been working hard and wanted to be transferred to the Criminal Police Team of the Municipal Bureau. He told me that the only way to get into the Criminal Police Only in the criminal police team could he have access to the files of his father's case, but his superiors have never given him the opportunity, which made him a little disheartened. However, he said that even if he went to the criminal police team, his father's affairs might not be clear for a while. The case cannot be overturned, because the policeman who wronged his father back then is now holding a high position in the bureau."

"Since he's not the murderer, why doesn't he report the problem to us openly, instead of doing some tricks secretly?" Ai Xiaomei interjected unconvinced.

"I also asked him about this. He said that if you know his identity, you will definitely list him as a suspect for investigation. He doesn't want to mislead you in the direction of the investigation, and he doesn't want you to waste your time on him." The policeman answered quite calmly.

"Did he tell you why he had to be transferred to Yushan Sub-district after doing a good job at the original police station?" Gu Feifei asked.

"It seems to have been mentioned..." The assistant policeman thought for a while and said, "It is said that it is convenient to take care of the grandfather who lives in Yushan Street."

"Yeah." Gu Feifei nodded thoughtfully, approached Han Yin and Wu Bin to talk in a low voice, then turned around and said to the assistant police in an unusually stern tone, "You have to be strict with our conversation today. Keep it secret, don't tell Xu Yang a word. Although you are only a police assistant, you must understand the rules of the police. If you disrupt our follow-up actions, we will definitely list you as an accomplice. Do you understand? !"

"I know... I know, don't worry, of course I understand the rules, and I will definitely keep it secret." The assistant police nodded quickly like a chicken pecking at rice.

"By the way, what's your name?" Han Yin asked when the police assistant was about to get off the car.

"Uh, my name is Zhu Yi." The police officer said.

Chapter [-] One Arrow, Two Demons

Back at the guest house, several people ate something briefly and began to discuss the case.

The focus of the discussion was mainly on Xu Yang. According to the information currently available, he had the most motive for committing the crime.First of all, he must be monitored immediately. Of course, he can't just passively wait for him to make mistakes, but also find some proactive ways to guide him to show his flaws.For example, help him find out the real culprit of Bai Xiuyun's case, to test his reaction; or set up a game, pretending to find a suspect who has a major suspicion, but there is no real evidence, he can't help him, and inadvertently The list was leaked to Xu Yang to see what he would do.The former is more difficult. After all, more than 30 years have passed, and it is difficult to find an entry point in the investigation. The only thing that can be used is the analysis of behavioral characteristics, but this does not bring substantial evidence; operability of...

Just when everyone was discussing in high spirits, Wu Bin's cell phone rang. After he answered, he just said "ah", and he was stunned.He put down the phone in despair, covered his mouth with his hand, closed his eyes, tried his best to hold back tears for a while, and then said sadly: "Master, an old man, just 'gone'!"

After Wu Bin's voice fell, everyone was shocked. He was fine a few hours ago, so why is Mrs. Gong gone so soon!Is it possible that the morning is "returning to the light"?Everyone didn't know what to say for a moment, and Ai Xiaomei couldn't help but shed tears.

Wu Bin wiped his eyes and said, "Let's stop here today. I have to visit my wife and help with some funeral affairs."

"Let's go with you. I don't know if the teacher will blame you for being tired in the morning. If you want to blame, blame us. By the way, we can help with something." Gu Feifei sniffed.

"Alright then." Wu Bin nodded in agreement.He knew that Gu Feifei was very upset, and it would be even more uncomfortable not to let her go. After thinking about it, he said to Han Yin, "If you don't want to go, Mr. Han, the case in hand must be dealt with quickly. You stay here." The guest house sorted out the whole case to see if they could find some breakthroughs. If possible, try to make a profile of Bai Xiuyun's case?"

"That's fine too. Say hello to my teacher's wife for me." Han Yin thought for a while, and said, "Let the people in your special case team send all the materials involved in the case here!"

"No problem! I'll let them deliver it right away." Wu Bin picked up his mobile phone and called the special case team as he spoke.

Now, all the materials related to the "April 4" case are in front of Han Yin, and he has just spent more than two hours reading it carefully.He closed his eyes, and the clues in his mind gathered together, and the next thing he had to do was to peel off the bamboo shoots...

First, when detecting abnormal serial cases in the past, the killer's first case was usually the most breakthrough. Every killer is not born. They have a stage from beginning to development to maturity when they become serial killers, and it is always easy at the beginning. Make some mistakes and expose yourself.But the "4" case is completely different. No matter how earth-shattering and cruel and treacherous the first two cases were, they were just foreshadowing. Judging from the murderer's behavior of throwing the organs of the victims of the first two cases at the scene of the third crime, This is especially evident.Therefore, what the murderer really cares about is the third case, which means that the research value in this case is the last murder.But Han Yin thought, why should there be two previous foreshadowings?Why deliberately choose the two most famous and cruel unsolved cases in the history of perverted crime?As Han Yin analyzed before, the murderer may want to tell the world that the third case is also an unsolved case, but the previous preparations are so cumbersome, but only to convey such a simple message, is it too top-heavy?The motive should not be so pure. Han Yin felt that in addition to conveying "unsolved case information", the murderer paid more attention to how to "get attention" as much as possible.And what this action reflects is the murderer's "urgent", "gambling" and "all-or-nothing" emotions. So what background contributed to the murderer's psychology?
Second, as mentioned above, the murderer focused on the third case, and the motive for committing the crime was probably to seek justice for Xu Hong and find out the real murderer.So looking at all the people involved in the Bai Xiuyun case, who cares most about these two points?Xu Yang must be one, will there be others?Could it be Bai Xiuyun's son?
Third, let’s first restore the fact that Bai Xiuyun was not raped back then, and the murderer obviously knew about it, so in his third imitation crime, there was no rape.So who can understand this fact?The murderer must have known it back then, and the core police handling the case would have known it too, but who else?Not only that, all the case records of the Bai Xiuyun case were eventually filed and sealed in secret. Except for the murderer and the core police officers who handled the case back then, "beating the face" and "stuffing the lower body with crayons". Who will know?

Fourth, let’s take a look at the post where the murderer of this case disclosed the case to the public through an online forum during the first crime.In his post, he described the posture of the corpse as follows: "The corpse is in a supine posture with its head south, its feet north..." Such a sentence will not appear in the mouths of ordinary people, it often appears in the mouths of reporters reporting crime news, Or from the mouths of crime novelists, of course, including the police, or people who are familiar with police work...

Fifth, as previously analyzed, the murderer is very familiar with Yushan Street, so he should be a local.Based on the murderer's performance in three consecutive crimes in a short period of time, it can be said that his tactics are clean and neat, his logical thinking is rigorous, his crime appeals are basically clearly expressed, and he has a certain level of intelligence. He is a typical organized killer.It has been said many times in the past that out of instinctive self-protection, this kind of organized killer usually chooses areas that they are relatively familiar with but do not expose their daily activities to commit crimes.Therefore, it seems a bit abnormal to say that the murderer in this case chose to commit crimes continuously in the area where he lived, and in a very small area. The only explanation is that he wanted to influence the police investigation, or he wanted to observe and participate in the police's investigation at a close distance. Investigation, so who has such conditions?Most importantly, what is his purpose of following the police investigation in real time?
So, who can the above five points intertwine point to?

In fact, while Han Yinluo listed one question after another, familiar and unfamiliar faces also passed through his mind one after another.He believes that since the murderer is so eager to attract the attention of the world and pays so much attention to the police investigation, maybe he is by their side. The key words in those questions: urgency, attention, grievance, awareness of the case, expert language , Peeping at the police handling the case at a close distance... They are intertwined, who will be frozen in Han Yin's brain?
I don't know how long it took, a trace of joy appeared on Han Yin's face, obviously he already had a name, but after he raised his hand and pushed the mirror frame, he fell into meditation again...

The above conclusions all come from the analysis of behavioral characteristics, and there is no evidence for substantive conviction.Han Yin recalled the discussion a few hours ago, and also set up a bureau to invite the murderer into the urn?No, it's too cumbersome!Han Yin thinks that he can try the "previous strategy". It is actually not impossible to lead the murderer in this case from the real murderer more than 30 years ago!

Han Yin turned on the recorder, Master Wu Bin's deep voice sounded in the room, and the picture of the old man narrating Bai Xiuyun's case was vivid in his memory, which made Han Yin sigh...

In Bai Xiuyun's case, it was obvious that he committed the crime for an acquaintance, and the whole crime was filled with resentment from beginning to end.

The theory of behavioral feature analysis shows that: the victim’s face was severely attacked from the front, usually by an acquaintance murderer; in addition, the murderer left the courtyard door and room door open after committing the crime, and the living room was in a mess, and the clothes of the deceased Bai Xiuyun were even worse. They were torn into pieces and thrown on the ground randomly; in addition to removing Xu Hong's set of fingerprints, another set of fingerprints belonging to the murderer was messy and undisguised, and so on.It can be seen from this series of scene characteristics that the murderer was in a state of extreme anger, madness and loss of reason.

Next, let’s look at the murderer’s two unimaginable and hair-raising acts: Xu Hong gave the crayons to Bai Xiuyun’s children, but the murderer did not bring them to the scene, so he stuffed two crayons into Bai Xiuyun’s lower body , should be out of jealousy towards Xu Hong.And placing Bai Xiuyun naked on the swing in the courtyard further shows that the murderer is around Bai Xiuyun. Perhaps the image of Bai Xiuyun sitting on the swing on weekdays is deeply engraved in his mind and deeply attracted. Looking at him, so in a state of madness, he even jokingly reproduced the picture that impressed him deeply.This characteristic of behavior, as well as the previous behavior, reveal the immaturity, immaturity and emotional impulsiveness of the murderer, which means that he should not be very old at the time.

Finally, let’s look at the timing of the murder: Bai Xiuyun’s boyfriend appeared at her work unit at noon, and then Bai Xiuyun took him home and had sex. She was killed that night, and the death process was full of humiliation and resentment.This process shows two points, the murderer must be near Bai Xiuyun, and he is pursuing Bai Xiuyun.

Let’s first summarize the nature of the case: Bai Xiuyun’s case was essentially an impulsive and passionate murder, the motive was jealousy and resentment, the madness and irrational state and perverted methods were probably all caused by a large amount of alcohol appeared next.

Let me summarize the profile of the real murderer more than 30 years ago: the age should be around 20 years old, definitely younger than Bai Xiuyun, not only familiar with Bai Xiuyun, but also from the same unit, often in contact with Bai Xiuyun in daily life, personality There's something romantic about it...

Now, the real culprit seemed to be coming out of Han Yin's mind. He tapped the keyboard of his laptop twice quickly, entered an official website, and called up a certain person's resume.When he saw the date of birth, a sly smile appeared on Han Yin's face, and then he began to recall every detail of the conversation with that person... After a while, for some reason, the smile on his face became stronger, he thought of A plan to kill two birds with one stone, no, it should be a plan to kill two birds with one stone.

The first step of the plan is to go to the cancer hospital first, then get in touch with Wu Bin and Gu Feifei, and then have a tentative talk with Xu Yang, and finally they will go to a place together.

It is almost evening now, and Han Yin needs to hurry up and try to get all the truth out this night!

At 8:30 p.m., Han Yin appeared alone at the Yushan Subdistrict Police Station. He approached Xu Yang, who was playing chess with Zhu Yi, an assistant police officer, and asked if he knew the residence of the subdistrict director Chen Hui.Xu Yang said that of course he knew the home of the "highest official" in the street, so Han Yin pretended to be cautious and said that Chen Hui was probably the murderer who killed Bai Xiuyun more than [-] years ago, and hoped that Xu Yang would take him to Chen Hui's residence immediately. It conducts probing questions...

"Why are you alone, what about Team Wu and the rest of your support team?" Xu Yang looked suspiciously at Han Yin and asked.

"Oh, the master of Team Wu, the former captain of the criminal police team, just passed away. He went to help take care of the funeral and had no time to spare. Other colleagues in the support team also followed to condolences to the family." Han Yin said calmly.

"Then the two of us go, won't it be safe enough, after all, that is a perverted murderer more than 30 years ago?" Xu Yang frowned and asked cautiously.

"Then call the policemen from several offices." Han Yin said looking around.

"How many more? Do you see if there is anyone in the office now? There is an anti-pornography mission tonight, so how can there be extra manpower!" Xu Yang turned his head and pointed to Zhu Yi, the assistant policeman who was staring at the chessboard intently and seemed to be thinking about the chess game. "Shall I take him with me?"

Han Yin glanced at the assistant police, and said with some reluctance: "That's okay, after all, more people have more power."

"Wait for me, I'll go to the toilet." Before setting off, Zhu Yi, the assistant policeman, acted in a hurry to urinate, and quickly ran towards the toilet.

A quarter of an hour later, Xu Yang and assistant policeman Zhu Yi led Han Yin to knock on the door of Chen Hui, the director of the sub-district office.

Han Yin looked at the luxurious decoration in the living room, and sighed with a "tsk tsk" in his mouth: "This house is so beautifully decorated, why, do you live alone?"

"Where is it? My mother-in-law is not in good health recently. My wife has gone back to her natal home to take care of her for two days. My daughter works in Beijing. She rarely comes back a few times a year." Chen Hui greeted the three of them to sit down with a smile, and said, "It's better if you look for me." Is it related to Xiuyun's case?"

"Yes." Han Yin showed a meaningful smile and said, "I want to ask, how was your relationship with Bai Xiuyun back then? You worked in the same department and got along day and night. The relationship should be very good, right? Do you like it very much?" she?"

"You...what do you mean?" The smile on Chen Hui's face froze, and he asked bluntly, "You suspect that I killed Bai Xiuyun?"

"In fact, you are the murderer!" Han Yin was already sure that Chen Hui was the murderer. Considering the subsequent plan, he didn't want to argue too much, so he said unceremoniously, "I have logged in to the official website of your street office. , checked your resume and found that you were born in 1960, that is to say, you were under 20 years old at the time of the crime, which fits my profile of the murderer's age; Departments, frequent close contact with each other, so much so that you have a crush on her, etc., these all fit my profile of the murderer."

"Okay, stop talking nonsense!" Chen Hui jumped up from his chair and shouted angrily, "I don't understand your bullshit profiling, but I know that you are now blatantly slandering a state official , I want to report you to your superior!"

"Hmph! Do you know where your flaw is?" Han Yin snorted and continued calmly, "You shouldn't be enjoying yourself so much when describing a murder scene, of course that's not the most deadly flaw—' Not looking for money, not looking for sex, just killed people and put them on the swing...'You should remember that you said this to us last time? You must have never thought that you would say this The words are equivalent to showing us the fact that you are the murderer!" Seeing that Chen Hui was stunned and did not respond, Han Yin smiled contemptuously and said, "You still don't seem to understand where you are wrong. Then I will explain to you. You listen. In Bai Xiuyun’s case, the police blocked all information related to the case, including not notifying the public after the case was closed, so almost everyone who heard about the case took it for granted that she was raped first and then killed Yes, even most of the police officers think so. But in fact, during the dispute with Bai Xiuyun, the murderer had strangled her to death by accident, and did not have time to commit rape. The police and the murderer only knew about it, how did you know about it?"

"I...I..." Chen Hui was at a loss for words for a while, and his expression was a little flustered, but he hesitated for a while, then suddenly opened his eyes and said calmly, "I was just talking casually, I didn't pay much attention to the wording! But, even if I If you say it, it will definitely prove that I am a murderer? If you really want to catch me, then please come up with real evidence, do you have it? If not, get out of here quickly! Get out, do you understand!" At the end , Chen Hui's voice was stern, and his emotions were extremely agitated, as if he had been greatly wronged.

At this time, Zhu Yi, the assistant policeman who had been silently watching the conversation between Han Yin and Chen Hui, suddenly stood up from the sofa. He walked towards Chen Hui as if to comfort him, but suddenly walked around behind Chen Hui, with an arm that was as fast as lightning. Covering his ears, he clasped his neck suddenly, and at some point in his other hand, a shining zigzag dagger was added to Chen Hui's throat.

"Did you know? What's interesting is that they need evidence, but I don't. I can directly sentence you, and it's a death sentence, and execute it immediately!" Zhu Yi sneered, his face extremely gloomy.

"You...you are..." Chen Hui was confused by the sudden turn of the situation, but he soon came to his senses. He froze and said in a slightly distorted voice, "You...you are Bai Xiuyun's son?"

"Yes, it's me." Zhu Yi whispered in Chen Hui's ear, and said grimly, "Don't you like my mother? Congratulations, you will be reunited with her soon!"

"Xiaofeng, your father's surname is He. I remember your name is He Xiaofeng. I really like your mother, but she chose that short and fat peddler. Everyone was in a daze, so they accidentally killed your mother. I know it’s useless to say anything now, and I really don’t regret dying, but you don’t want to ruin your own life because of my humble life. Let me be handed over to the government for trial, okay?" Chen Hui is considered to be a city man who can sit from a propaganda officer to the director of the sub-district office. Seeing that he may die at the hands of Zhu Yi at any time, he decided to judge the situation first. Keeping his eyes open, he had no choice but to admit that he was the murderer who killed Zhu Yi's mother.

Zhu Yi laughed wildly, but tears overflowed from the corners of his eyes. He said in a slightly choked tone: "As far as I can remember, I have been an orphan, and I have had a dream repeatedly. I dreamed that a man was riding on a woman, and his hand was vicious. He strangled the woman's neck with his other hand, and slapped her cheek with the other hand until she lay there motionless. But he still didn't want to stop there, so he took out two crayons on the coffee table and slapped the woman's genitals. Insert it, strip her clothes off, and carry her out of the door..."

"Time and time again, the scene is so clear, but I just can't see the man's appearance clearly. I always wake up suddenly when I try to distinguish the man's appearance. I asked my grandma many times why I always do that. Dream? But grandma kept avoiding it until she was about to die due to illness. She told me that it was not a dream, but a memory from my childhood. She told me that it was my mother who appeared in the dream. I was killed when I was 3 years old, and the body was still placed on the swing in the yard... You know? Since then, I have a vague feeling that the murderer is still at large, otherwise why is my mother's soul always holding me back? Later, when I returned to the city where I was born, when I confirmed my intuition, I started looking for you, and even had to kill three innocent lives in order to find you, do you think I will let you go?"

"Wait! Zhu Yi, don't be impulsive." Han Yin waved his hand at Zhu Yi, signaling him to calm down, "Answer me a question. Xu Yang knew that his father was wronged because he had a high fever the night your mother was killed. But I clearly remember that my father was always by his side, but the investigators were determined to make his father a scapegoat, so they ignored his testimony. But how do you know that your mother was not killed by his father?"

"It's fate!" Zhu Yi forced a smile at Xu Yang and explained, "I came back here from another place. At first I just wanted Liang Yan to help find a job, because my grandma said that my mother was very good with her before she was alive. I sent money to my grandma, and she was a reliable person. Later, during the contact process, I talked about my mother’s case. She mentioned your father and said that she knew about the relationship between my mother and your father. At that time, she was very sure, you It is impossible for my father to kill my mother because of Sony Ericsson's failure. He also said that she had specifically emphasized this to the police who were handling the case at the time, but no one paid any attention to her. So I secretly swore that I must dig out the real culprit and avenge my mother. I believe that my mother has always entrusted me with dreams, and it is for this reason! Later, perhaps it was God’s will, and by mistake, Liang Yantuo found me a job as a police assistant, which made our two offspring of wronged souls walk away happily. So close."

After hearing what Zhu Yi said, a wry smile appeared on Xu Yang's face, and he said, "Brother, since we are destined, just listen to my brother and put down the knife. I believe your mother and my father know about this way of revenge." , will not accept it. Besides, do you really think you can succeed today?"

While talking, Xu Yang walked slowly to the door of the room, opened the door, and saw Wu Bin, Gu Feifei, Du Yingxiong and Ai Xiaomei rushing into the room one after another.It was Du Yingxiong who rushed to the front again, holding his right hand with the gun in his left hand, aiming at Zhu Yi, and said sharply: "You are smart, put down the knife now, maybe you can see the real murderer get a trial, otherwise you can only bring regret Go see her!"

"Put down the knife! Put down the knife quickly!"

Several black guns aimed at Zhu Yi, and Zhu Yi subconsciously took a few steps back while clasping Chen Hui's neck, and shouted at Xu Yang: "It turns out that you cooperated with them in framing me? You forgot your father's Have you been wronged?"

"I will never forget that I hate those bad policemen and murderers as much as you do, but I am a policeman. Of course, even if I am an ordinary citizen, I hope to solve the problem through the law. The way of hatred will never be true. Drive away the hatred, it will only burn us. Wake up, don't go wrong brother!" Xu Yang explained sincerely.

"It's you, isn't it? It's you who sabotaged my plan, right?" Seeing that Xu Yang couldn't be on the same side with him, Zhu Yi became even more annoyed. He yelled at Han Yin in a crazy way, "Say, say, it's up to you Answer me, how did you find me? Say it! Say it!"

Han Yin smiled, and said lightly: "I lied to Chen Hui just now. In fact, there is another person who knows the secrets of the case, and that is Bai Xiuyun's son—you. You were still young at that time, and you couldn't express and understand everything. The things you see, but they are deeply rooted in your memory, and will accompany you all your life. This may be your destiny, you have no choice, but you can choose to be the same as Xu Yang, looking forward to one day you can use the law To punish the real murderer. But you didn't, you chose to use violence to control violence, and you are destined to live in darkness forever."

"Actually, about you, I found out your identity when I went to the hospital. I read your case, and you suffer from 'pulmonary fibrosis', which is a genetic disease in your family. We learned that your father died of this disease earlier. Illness. In fact, the onset of this disease usually occurs after the age of 50, but I don’t know why you father and son have the onset so early. According to your attending doctor, your illness has reached the terminal stage, which is only half a year away, and the date of diagnosis It was more than three months ago, which coincided with the time when the writer Zhang Songlin communicated with you on the forum, so I knew your motive for committing the crime—you succeeded in imitating the two most famous perverted cases in China. The detection team attracted Nagata, and then led the case to your mother. The ultimate goal is to use us to help you find the murderer in the 'shortest time', and then you can be lynched, before you die , to avenge my mother!"

"Well, even if you know everything, you still can't change the ending. From the very beginning, I was ready to die, so he still has to die!" Zhu Yi said coldly with a grim face.

"Wait, I haven't finished talking yet." Han Yin pointed at Chen Hui, and pressed towards Zhu Yi, "I'm sure, when you stab the knife, my colleague's gun will also go off, and I'm also sure , you can’t dodge that shot. But Chen Hui is different. We have prepared ambulance for him downstairs, that is to say, maybe you racked your brains and tried your best to set up a situation, and in the end it just cost your own life. That's all. You can have a better choice, as your brother Xu Yang and my colleagues said, wouldn't it be more perfect to hand him over to the law and avenge your mother in the name of the law? I know, mine The suggestion may deviate from your original intention. Your innate hatred will not be resolved with a few words from me, but please think about your mother and Aunt Liang Yan. They are the most innocent two people in this nightmare. Personally, if you stab the knife in your hand at this moment, they will become accomplices and will be nailed to your shame forever. Do you hope this is the case? Do you want someone to say that it is the ghost of your mother who is spurring you to kill? You I hope someone will say, did Liang Yan use her death to cooperate with your revenge? I believe that your tears standing in front of your mother’s tombstone are sincere. When you killed Aunt Liang Yan, your heart was also bleeding. Come on, Put down the knife, stand in court, and tell the world..."

"Dang", there was a crisp sound, what appeared at the door of entering hell was not the sound of gunshots, but the sound of sharp knives falling to the ground.Zhu Yi let go of Chen Hui, squatted down slowly, covered his cheeks, and wailed loudly; while Chen Hui's body went limp, and he collapsed on the floor, shivering, incontinent under his trousers, like a bereaved dog.

Xu Yang walked slowly in front of Zhu Yi, squatted down, and hugged him tightly...

With the confession of Zhu Yi and Chen Hui, the haze that shrouded the hearts of the people in Changtian City was completely dispelled. Not only the "4" case was successfully solved, but also the case of Bai Xiuyun's murder more than 7 years ago was also revealed. Great white.The police in Changtian City rejoiced, but the current chief, Zhou Haishan, disappeared from the public eye.Because he participated in creating Xu Hong's unjust case, he has been temporarily dismissed from his position by the relevant superior department and is undergoing further investigation. It is conceivable that what awaits him will be severe legal punishment.

After attending Master Wu Bin's memorial service, Han Yin, Gu Feifei, Du Yingxiong and Ai Xiaomei rushed to the airport.Since the destinations are different, and Han Yin's flight back to school takes off ahead, the scene is that Gu Feifei takes two small attendants to see Han Yin off.

After a few days of intimacy, Ai Xiaomei and Du Yingxiong had already developed deep admiration and attachment to Han Yin, and they seemed reluctant to part when they parted, pulling Han Yindong to talk endlessly, Gu Feifei couldn't get in the mouth and had to say goodbye while smiling.Fortunately, Ai Xiaomei still had good eyesight and felt that it was almost done, so she secretly kicked Du Yingxiong a few times and pulled him away.

Seeing the two children walking away while bickering, Gu Feifei stretched out her hand to Han Yin and said softly, "Have a good cooperation, and have a good journey!"

"Next time you need it, you can call anytime, and I promise to be there on call." Han Yin gently shook Gu Feifei's hand and said with a smile.

When working together on the case before, everyone was tense and focused on the case, and the communication with each other was very natural and smooth, but now they relaxed, and the atmosphere became a little awkward.After letting go of their hands, both of them were a little unnatural, looking left and right, speechless for a while.After being silent for a while, Gu Feifei said, "How are you and Ye Xi doing?"

"I haven't started at all, so how can I talk about development!" Han Yin looked down at his toes, sighed lightly, and then turned his head to look at the big screen at the airport, "Okay, I should go in, take care!"

Seeing that Han Yin didn't want to go deep into the topic, Gu Feifei said roughly, "Well, you too."

Seeing Han Yin's figure gradually disappearing in sight, Gu Feifei's eyes were fascinated, and she muttered to herself: "Do you know? It feels so good to work with you again!"

As soon as they parted, Gu Feifei began to look forward to the next meeting with Han Yin, but it was bound to be accompanied by a tragic murder!
