Chapter 1 The red dress

At night in every city, there will be some commotion that cannot be seen during the day, and then there will be a place for people's entertainment and pastime to emerge, so that many poor people will vent their anger and suffering in work and life, but often there will be people who are confused by the lobbying in front of them because of lack of concentration, and become slaves of sound and poison.

"It's not a good thing to get up in the middle of the night. Tang Yunzhen, who had slept comfortably at home, walked into the cinema with a yawn very resentfully, and although all the lights were turned on in this perennially dark place, it still couldn't be compared with the land that could shine into the sun. "Ting, what's the situation?"

"The body was found in the women's bathroom, and Fei Fei and Yang Qi were still there...... According to the recollections of the ticket office staff, the deceased was supposed to have come alone. Cheng Tingshen had already asked the confessions of several people just now, but he didn't get any useful clues.

Although it is an old-style theater that plays midnight movies all night, and they are all old movies, there are still many guests who like classic nostalgia, and they are still busy one by one, seeing Tang Yunzhen's spiritless appearance, Cheng Tingshen said helplessly. "Go wash your face, there are so many people, you have to be busy. ”

"I ...... I met Zuo Quan outside just now, and I should help them record a confession for all the staff together, don't look at this movie theater, it's not big, but there are a lot of employees. Tang Yunzhen looked around, sneering and trying to sneak away. "If you have enough people on your side, I'll go out and help too. ”

"It's enough for your head, it's obviously not enough!" Cheng Tingshen immediately shattered Tang Yunzhen's excuse that he wanted to go out and be lazy, and casually threw a notepad to him, directing him to start working from the opposite direction of himself. "Ah Feng, Yu Chu, aren't you two resting today?"

Seeing Cheng Tingshen and Tang Yunzhen in the center of the theater, Cheng Fengqian and Li Yuchu walked over together. "We happened to meet nearby, and we saw Brother Zuo Quan outside, and we knew that something was wrong, so we came in to see if we needed help. ”

"I happened to meet nearby? This neighborhood is full of commercial streets, and there are many people and roads, so why is it so coincidental that you can go shopping separately and go shopping together. Tang Yunzhen smiled slyly and sniffed. "I still smell of popcorn, and you two are watching movies in another room...... Uh-huh, secretly dating!"

"We ......" Cheng Fengqian, who was right, scratched his head embarrassedly, and then looked at Li Yuchu, who lowered his head and seemed to be blushing.

"Can't say it? No wonder Ah Feng and I had to give him a holiday yesterday with both soft and hard work, it turned out that I wanted to overlap with Yu Chu's vacation. Tang Yunzhen was very gossipy and broke the news to Cheng Tingshen. "If you watch a movie so late, it shouldn't be a horror movie, right? What kind of ghost and doll seem to be in the next room? or the 3D version of it! Looking at the poster scares people to death~"

Tang Yunzhen said as he made a very exaggerated gesture of fear, and then pouted his lips pretending to be dissatisfied. "What a crime to be guilty of hiding from us!"

"I don't want to hide it. Cheng Fengqian thought they were really angry, and hurriedly explained. "I told you at the beginning of the conversation, and I'll tell you when it stabilizes. ”

"My senior sister is here, right?" Li Yuchu wanted to change the topic quickly. "I ...... I'm going to help her collect evidence, where is the body?"

"In the women's restroom. Cheng Tingshen's face suddenly became embarrassed. "At the beginning of the language, I advise you, it's better not to go. ”

"Why?" Li Yuchu asked suspiciously, but looking at Cheng Tingshen's indescribable look, he still chose to listen to his opinion. "Then I'll go out and help Brother Zuo Quan......"

"I'll go with you. Cheng Fengqian also followed, but was strangled by Tang Yunzhen's arm. "Ah, Team Tang!"

"Don't go!" Cheng Tingshen also pulled Cheng Fengqian's ears and said with a smile. "Hurry up and give us an honest explanation, when did it start?"

"Explain what?" Cheng Fengqian decided to pretend to be stupid to the end, and took advantage of Tang Yunzhen's lack of too much force to restrain him, so he quickly took the confession book and walked a few steps away from them. "Work, work first, go back and talk about it. ”

"Well, I'll let you go for now. Tang Yunzhen waved his hand to let Cheng Fengqian go, and then asked Cheng Tingshen. "Why don't you let Yu Chu go to collect evidence?"

"The picture is a bit ...... Ahem...... Anyway, you know when you go see it. Cheng Tingshen didn't seem to have thought of adjectives, and he seemed a little stumbling. "Yu Chu is a little girl after all, we still have enough personnel, there is no need to let her face the scene of the rape and murder, what if there is a shadow of my family?"

"You're thinking too much, aren't you!" Tang Yunzhen didn't talk to him anymore, turned around and started to do things, but as soon as he finished asking a person's confession, seeing that Cheng Tingshen and Cheng Fengqian didn't pay attention to him, he secretly ran out.

In his heart, Zhou Yanfei is also a little girl, and it is best to reduce the situation of facing this kind of scene, at least she can't face it alone, and she can't have a shadow, otherwise what should he do?

Compared to the relaxed atmosphere outside, the inside of the bathroom is too heavy.

Not to mention Zhou Yanfei's solemn face, he only said the results of the evidence collection, and there was nothing else, even Yang Qi, who has always been known as the pistachio in the technical room, was very serious.

Because Jiang Yuanhao was still on other cases, and Yuan Xiangning's house was far away from here, Zhou Yanfei simply asked them to go back to the police station directly, and he acted as a temporary forensic doctor, first doing some simple autopsies, in-depth autopsies, etc., and then Jiang Yuanhao would take the knife.

After Tang Yunzhen came over, he only glanced at the door of the bathroom, and the semi-permanent smile mask that he had worn for many years on his face was taken off.

He told a few colleagues who seemed uncomfortable to go out to do other work, leaving only two uniformed police officers to guard the door to block the scene, and after the personnel were assigned, he looked at the corpse on the ground again, his face was still getting more and more ugly.

The deceased was a young woman, about twenty-four or five years old, wearing a full skirt, the length of the skirt was very traditionally below the knee, the color was slightly mature, it was a darker crimson, although the clothes were disheveled, but it could also be seen that the original style belonged to the dignified type and not explicit, not like a woman who pursued fashion and fiddled with style, and even if it was, it should not be subjected to this unwarranted disaster.

She was lying on the cold marble, her long hair was still dripping with water, and a complete handprint could be faintly seen on both sides of her cheeks, and the marks were very deep, indicating that she had been pinched hard for a long time.

Her hands were helplessly spread out, and there were several bruises on her arms, especially the part of her wrists, and there were many bruises on the other exposed parts of her body.

The clothes on the chest were torn, the underwear was roughly pulled to the top, the skirt was completely torn apart, the blood on the lower body had long since dried, and the blood-stained bottom-pants hung on a calf.

It can be imagined how much pain she was in the process of being abused, and her body should have subconsciously shrunk into a ball because of the pain.

However, her legs were arched openly, and if she had not died in the process of being victimized, it was obvious that the murderer had deliberately posed after her death.

"There is no trace of being moved. Zhou Yanfei carefully observed the corpse spots.

Such a picture is not only physiologically disgusting, but more, there is also the amplification and prolongation of the fear of the dead, what others feel Zhou Yanfei doesn't know, but at least she herself now feels that the air in this space is full of fear and despair of this woman, which makes her feel suffocated, and then anger.

The murderer has insulted the deceased to the extreme, and he has to deprive him of the last bit of dignity as a human being.

He seems to be treating her as a work of art, titled 'Shame', in order to attract attention and make people ignore the perversion of his initiator hiding in the dark.

It's a mouse in the gutter, a monster that can't see the light.

"This is supposed to be the first crime scene. Tang Yunzhen also paced slowly in the entire space, observing around.

A pair of women's glasses were torn off and thrown on the ground, which should have been stepped on more than once in the process of entanglement between the murderer and the deceased, not to mention that the lenses were completely broken, and even the frames were quite seriously deformed.

"There is residual ...... in the mouth It may be rice green fluid, and there is no body fluid left in the lower body, but it is ...... There is an abrasion in the auricular canal. Looking at the formation of the wound, Zhou Yanfei's brows became tighter and tighter. "The specific substance that caused it has to wait for the forensic autopsy to determine. ”

"That's the only way to do it. Tang Yunzhen turned on the communicator. "I had the bodies brought back. ”

"Good. Zhou Yanfei nodded, took off his gloves, stood up and took a few more photos with his camera, and then bowed to the deceased. "It is preliminarily determined that she was first drowned, and after being violated, she bled to death due to excessive bleeding. ”

"Report to the two chiefs. "Yang Qi went out just now, and carefully surveyed the outside. "The boss should be right, I just asked Zuo Quan about the basic situation, he said that someone was about to come in here during the movie, but the door couldn't be opened, thinking that it was cleaning or broken and couldn't be used, and because this movie theater has other toilets, so no one opened the door forcefully, and no abnormality was found, until the end of the movie screening, when the cleaning staff came to clean it. ”

"The old movie theater was like that, even if it was broken or cleaned, it wouldn't put up a sign. Zhou Yanfei sighed helplessly. "After the guests get used to it once or twice, they won't break in the next time, and if they can't open the door, they will change places directly, and no one will suspect it. ”
