My eternal soul, beholdeth thy heart, even though the night is lonely, and the day is burning.

————— Jean-Nicolas Arthur Rimbaud [French poet]

"The corpse was right in front, glowing green. It was found by a little couple walking at night, both of them were scared, the boy fainted directly, the girl called the police, I asked Daliang to send them to the hospital, and by the way, I recorded a confession. ”

Before dawn, Tongfeng Street, located in Xicheng District, is steaming with white mist on the flat and wide road, and there is a row of flying saucers floating above the fog, which emits a warm yellow light, which looks full of science fiction from a distance.

"What's going on?" Xin Pet was stunned by the scene in front of him, and his footsteps stopped unconsciously.

Ye Shichao walked beside her, and also stopped, his dark eyes looked very quiet in the night, he pointed to the white mist, "The heating pipe is cracked, and hot water is leaking." He pointed to the flying saucer floating above the fog, "That's a street lamp, and someone has photographed it on the Internet more than once, claiming to have seen a UFO." ”

Singh took over, "Don't be shocked yet, the more terrifying is yet to come." As he spoke, he led the way into the mist.

The fog was very thick, the temperature was obviously higher than the outside, and when I walked forward, I could faintly see a bright green light on the side of the road, and when I got closer, I found that it was a corpse, and there was an exposed heating pipe next to the corpse, and the pipe did not know why, it had ruptured, and the gurgling hot water continued to flow out of the pipe.

The corpse was lying on top of the flowing hot water, it had begun to take on the appearance of a giant, swollen and white, covered with an umbrella-like mushroom, the mushrooms were green and shining, and countless flies lingered around it, looking creepy, like a scene in the swamp of hell.

This scene made Xin Pet shiver, but Ye Shichao suddenly became interested, put on the shoe cover handed over by Singh, walked to the corpse, and squatted down to take a closer look at the small mushrooms that were glowing green.

This glowing mushroom is not big, and the diameter of the open mushroom umbrella is only three or five centimeters, like a jellyfish born on a corpse, glowing green, and it is very cute.

"This is a fluorescent mushroom, also known as ant street lamp, is a small wood-dwelling saprophytic mushroom, which generally grows in spring and summer, in low-altitude forest areas. Ye Shichao said, put on gloves, and gently pushed away the fluorescent mushroom swarm, which exposed many insects, "The fluorescence of the fluorescent mushroom can attract many insects to spread spores for it, but the surroundings here are full of hot water, and many insects can't gather here, and there are only Coleoptera corpse eaters, flies, and moths." The fly eggs have not yet hatched, and the deceased should not have been here for long...... Hey, that's ......."

As he spoke, he took the tweezers out of his toolbox and carefully picked up a tiny insect from under the corpse's glowing mushroom umbrella. This insect is too small, you can't see it at all if you don't look carefully, Ye Shichao took out a magnifying glass from the toolbox again, handed it to Xin Pet, Xin Pet leaned over to take a look, and found that the insect looked very strange, it looked like a dropped contact lens, but the diameter was smaller than the contact lens, no more than a millimeter, the color was slightly red, and there were two hairs on the body.

"What is this?" she asked curiously.

Ye Shichao said: "The luminous insect is a creature in the sea, which will glow at night under the stimulation of sea water. The pictures of blue light on the sea circulating on the Internet are a large number of noctilucent insects gathered on the surface of the sea. ”

"Creatures of the sea?" Singh wondered, "how could they be here?"

"That's the problem. Ye Shichao said, put the luminous insect into the sample box, and continued to sample.

He found two more glow-in-the-dark insects on the corpse, both dead, mainly concentrated on the deceased's left chest.

After taking all the insect samples, Shi Yin came with the assistant forensic doctor, and when he saw the scene in front of him, both of them were stunned, the young assistant forensic doctor was pale, Shi Yin was quite calm, touched his chin, and smiled very badly: "This is like the devil's altar." ”

"What devil's altar? Don't be alarmist here, work!" Singh walked over and patted Shi Yin.

Shi Yin snorted coldly, put on a hood and mask, squatted down, and began a preliminary autopsy, while the assistant took pictures on the side.

"Male, aged between twenty-five and thirty, about one meter seventy-five tall, the body has taken on the appearance of a giant, and should have been soaked in water for at least 48 hours after death, but if it is soaked in hot water, the time will have to be extrapolated separately. The cause of death is believed to be multiple stab wounds to the chest, which caused a lot of bleeding, but there was no blood here, and the body was probably dumped after death. ”

Singh nodded, and called a fat subordinate, "Huzi, go to the road monitoring command center to get the monitoring of this street within 48 hours." Let Niu Qing take two people to visit the residents of the nearby community. “

"Got it, sir. Huzi answered the call and left.

Singh asked Shi Yin again: "If you don't come, we won't be able to move the victim's body, so let's look for him first, whether he has any documents on him." ”

"That's good. Shi Yin raised his head, with a smile in the corner of his eyes, this smile was very unbeatable, but it was very wonderful, he opened the corpse's clothes, gray blazer, khaki pants, and said while flipping: "The deceased is very clean, there is no trace of blood on his body, it looks like it has been carefully cleaned up, in this case, you still expect the murderer to leave a document on him?" Speaking of this, the hand had already opened the trouser pocket of the corpse, and the movement suddenly stopped, and then he took out an ID card from his pocket in a daze.

Wu Zuoyong, male, 29 years old, addresses a community in this city.

Singh took the ID card and raised his eyebrows: "Does your face hurt?"

Shi Yin looked at the ID card that slapped him in the face very quickly, and gritted his teeth, "This is illogical. ”

Xin Chong supported Shi Yin, "I also think this is unreasonable, the body is indeed very clean, and neatly placed, the hands and feet are straight, and the head is not crooked, which shows that the murderer is a very strict person, since he has worked so hard to clean up the corpse, how can he carelessly leave his ID card? Unless he deliberately wants the police to find out the identity of the deceased." “

Singh frowned, "Is this a provocation?"

"Murderers who leave clues for the police are generally narcissistic personalities, and they humiliate the police by treating murder as a game or a game with the police. But there is also a type of murderer, who is not a police officer, but who sees himself as the embodiment of a police officer, who believes that he killed people to do what a police officer should do, to leave a signal to the police, and to be encouraged and thanked. Xin Pet said, looking down at the corpse, "I don't know what type of unknown killer this unknown killer is." ”

Singh nodded, "Whatever the type, you have to arrest him." To catch it, we need to know more clues. What are the worms of these godly green light mushrooms on the victim's body, I will hand them over to Dr. Ye, and, Shi Yin, can I get the autopsy report today?"

Shi Yin took off his gloves, threw them to his assistant, and instructed him to find someone to bring the body back to the forensic center, and turned back to Singh, "You've been getting more and more excessive! ”

"Oh?" Singh chuckled evilly, "I'm going to have to be careful that you pick and choose, and I'm going to have a hard time telling your little secret." ”

Shi Yin's face changed, and he gritted his teeth, "The autopsy report will be given to you tomorrow." ”

Singh smiled with eight white teeth and put his hand on his chest, "The little secret is here, warm and reassuring." ”

As he spoke, he put his arm around Shi Yin's shoulder and left with him.

Xin Pet was very curious, and couldn't help but ask Ye Shichao on the side: "Did Shi Yin have any tricks in my brother's hands?"

Ye Shichao was squatting next to the pipe leaking hot water, and turned back when he heard the words: "What handle can Shi Yin have?" Unless...... Singh knows he's a virgin?"

"Shi Yin is a virgin?" Xin Pet was very surprised, after all, he would flirt with Shi Yin when he saw his sister on weekdays, and he regarded himself as a gentleman, how could such a person be twenty-seven or eighteen, or a virgin?

Ye Shichao looked up at Xin Pet, "Is sexual experience really that important?" Shi Yin himself is very afraid that others will see through him as a virgin. ”

At least all the men she's met since she was a kid were proud to have more sexual experience, and no man at this age could proudly say that he was a virgin.

Thinking of this, Xin Pet smacked his tongue thoughtfully, "I don't know where my brother got the confidence to use this to blackmail others, he himself is a 10,000-year-old single." ”

Ye Shichao got up and looked at her seriously, "What about you?"

Xin Pet didn't react for a while, "What am I?"

"Sexual experience. Ye Shichao asked.

Xin Pet's face instantly turned red, and almost immediately thought of that ridiculous night, that night, she almost had ...... Ahem...... I almost had experience, but I really hadn't had it before.

Thinking about it this way, she and Shi Yin turned out to be the same type, they were all talking on paper, pretending to be old drivers, but in fact, they had never actually operated at all, and they had a certain fear of actual operation.

However, she felt that she might be about to deal with the fear, after all, that night...... She enjoyed it very much. Of course, it is also possible that you have met the right person.

She blushed and coughed twice, forced her face, and raised her chin, "You say it first, you say it, I'll say it." ”

Ye Shichao sneered twice, looked away, I don't know why, his voice was very empty, "I...... I think this topic is too naïve. ”

After that, he took his toolbox and left.

Xin Pet pursed his lips behind him and muttered in a low voice:

"Did you ask first? I don't know who is naïve!"
