Chapter 32 Murder and Silence
Shui Bingyu came to the scene of the crime as quickly as possible.
The place where the body was displayed was Room 603 where Liu Hanxiao lived.
Liu Hanxiao was lying on her back on the bed in one of the bedrooms, her hands were flat on her sides, her hair was messy, there were many obvious knife wounds on her throat and upper body, the knife wounds extended from her chest to her navel, and they were distributed in a regular straight line, and the murderer actually used a knife to draw a rose on her abdomen, a red rose dripping with blood! Shui Bingyu couldn't help but think of the bright red rose that Liu Mengbai gave to her under her Weibo message, a rose that cried blood! Could it be that Liu Mengbai provoked her again!
Liu Hanxiao was wearing a white embroidered nightgown, which had been torn by the murderer at this time, her bra was lifted above her chest, and her underwear was pulled up to her ankles.
"According to our inference, the time of the murder of the female deceased should have been between 11 and 12 o'clock last night. The last time she was seen was around 10 p.m. yesterday, when a neighbor who was off the night shift said he had seen her open the door to pick up takeout. The police officer in charge of this district briefed Shui Bingyu and Meng Xingchen on the situation.
Meng Xingchen asked while inspecting the contents of the house, "I heard that it was a property manager from this apartment who found the body." ”
"Yes, it was the property manager of this apartment building who found the body. Most of the residents of this apartment building are office workers, so he usually collects property management fees on weekends or evenings. Today happened to be Saturday, he came to knock on the door of room 603 at about 10 o'clock in the morning, but no one responded, he found that the door was hidden, he thought that there was someone in the room, and he didn't hear his knock, so he walked in, and only then did he find the female deceased in the room. Later, he also called the police. The police in the jurisdiction said in a flat tone, "After we received the alarm, we immediately rushed to the scene." At that time, the female deceased was lying face up on the bed, covered in blood, almost naked, with her skirt and underwear down to the base of her feet, as if she had been violently assaulted. ”
"Violently violent?!" Xiao Li raised his eyebrows in surprise.
"Yes, judging from the scene of the crime, it does look like he was violently assaulted before he died. The police officer replied.
"The deceased is related to several serial suicide cases that we are investigating, so this case has been taken over by our city bureau's criminal police team. You've been busy for most of the day, Xiao Li, go back and do the handover of the case with the police officers in the jurisdiction!" Meng Xingchen said.
After Xiao Li and the police in the jurisdiction left, Meng Xingchen looked at the affectionate and dignified Shui Bingyu and comforted: "I know that you can't accept that Liu Hanxiao was killed like this for a while, but since the matter has happened, we have to face it positively, and quickly find the murderer who killed Liu Hanxiao to comfort her spirit in the sky." ”
"It's him! It must be him! That demon has appeared again!" Shui Bingyu said as she stared at the bloodstained rose on Liu Hanxiao's abdomen.
"Who? you said that demon?" Meng Xingchen asked puzzled.
"Liu Mengbai!" Shui Bingyu squeezed out these three words from the root.
"What? You said that this was done by Liu Mengbai? Could it be that he is the big boss behind the "Comfort Club"?" Meng Xingchen couldn't help but raise his voice and asked.
"Team Meng, did you find the "Forget Worry Water" from Liu Hanxiao's apartment?" Shui Bingyu didn't answer Meng Xingchen's question first, but asked.
"No, we searched carefully and carefully, and found nothing except Liu Hanxiao's personal belongings. Meng Xingchen said dejectedly.
That's right, Liu Mengbai was afraid that we would come to Liu Hanxiao to take the "Forget Worry Water" so that he could decompose the ingredients of the reagent, so he took the first step to kill people and take away the "Forget Worry Water" from Liu Hanxiao. This shows that there is a problem with "forgetting worries", and it may really contain contraband. Shui Bingyu said.
"You haven't answered me yet, how do you know that Liu Mengbai did this?" Meng Xingchen continued to ask puzzled.
Shui Bingyu told Meng Xingchen about what he went to find out about Hao Ming in the morning.
"Oh no! Team Meng, I need to go back to the psychiatric hospital right away. I'm afraid Hao Ming is in danger!" Shui Bingyu suddenly thought of something, and ran out as she spoke.
"Do you need me to go with you?" Meng Xingchen looked at Shui Bingyu's anxious appearance and was a little worried.
"No, you quickly send someone to the sunny side to see, don't there be anything going on on his side. Shui Bingyu said without looking back.
As soon as she entered the door of the mental hospital, Shui Bingyu's mobile phone rang, and when she saw that it was the phone number of Dean Bai Lang, Shui Bingyu's heart hurt violently like a needle.
"Officer Marine, I regret to inform you that your father has just passed away. Mourning is changing!" Bai Lang's deep voice came from the other end of the phone.
Although he already had an ominous premonition in his heart, after confirming the bad news, Shui Bingyu still couldn't ease his senses for a while.
She didn't know how she walked into Hao Ming's hospital room, and when she saw Hao Ming's body covered with a white sheet, her tears flowed unconsciously.
Although she and Hao Ming have been separated for more than 20 years, blood is thicker than water, after all, it is her biological father who is related to her. Moreover, he has been trying his best to make up for his debt to Shui Bingyu over the years, not only helping her to overcome the fear in her heart, but also sparing no effort to help her solve the case. If it weren't for helping her, Liu Mengbai wouldn't have attacked him.
At this time, Bai Lang walked to Shui Bingyu's side, patted her on the shoulder, and handed a piece of white paper to Shui Bingyu, and said, "This is what we found on your father's bedside table, and he laboriously wrote two words before he died, I think he wanted to leave it to you." ”
Shui Bingyu took the white paper and looked at it, there was a word "white" written crookedly on it, and a word "ruined", behind the word "ruined", there was also a dot, Shui Bingyu knew what he wanted to write again, but he had no strength.
The word "white", Shui Bingyu understood at a glance that what he wanted to express was that Liu Mengbai killed him.
What does the word "destroy" mean? What does the only point that is crossed out at the end represent?
What did Hao Ming want to remind her?
Meng Xingchen also received a call from Bai Lang, and when he learned the news of Hao Ming's death, he immediately rushed over.
Looking at Shui Bingyu, whose face was full of tears, he couldn't help but feel distressed, this little girl had endured too much! Finally found her biological father, and it didn't take long for her to be separated from life and death, and she became an orphan again.
Shui Bingyu was only sad for a moment, and then forced herself to calm down, she knew that only by catching the demon Liu Mengbai could she avenge her father.
Shui Bingyu was full of guilt at this time, Hao Ming died because of her, but she didn't call him "Dad" in person, which was an irreparable deep guilt and regret in her heart.
"People can't be resurrected after death, Professor Hao should know your mind! Only by catching Liu Mengbai's demon as soon as possible can he comfort his spirit in the sky. Meng Xingchen comforted softly.
"Team Meng, what's the situation on the sunny side?" Shui Bingyu changed the subject.
"Oh no, he's dead too! Meng Xingchen said in a low voice.
"Let's go to the site and see. Shui Bingyu said.
Qinglang's death was even more terrifying, his hands were on the ground, at first glance he looked like a chicken's paws, and the blood vessels in his arms were also protruding, and it was obvious that he was very uncomfortable before he died. It's nothing, the most terrifying thing is his face, the original handsome and delicate face has been unrecognizable, the facial features are distorted almost together, and the canine teeth are exposed in his mouth.
He seemed to be laughing before he died, but this laugh is light to describe as hideous, and I have never seen anyone laugh like this. At the same time, there is a scab on the back of the neck.
Shui Bingyu carefully examined the sunny corpse from beginning to end again, and finally found a tiny pinhole behind his ear.
"It seems that he died of poisoning. The killer is believed to have injected a toxic agent behind his ear. Shui Bingyu said.
"It must have been done by Liu Mengbai's demon!" "Police officer Xiao Li gritted his teeth and said.
"Xiao Li, a few of you clean up the scene, Shui Bingyu, you have a few days off, busy with Professor Hao's funeral, and then come to work at the police station after resting. Meng Xingchen looked at Shui Bingyu, who was physically and mentally exhausted, and said
Shui Bingyu nodded, Hao Ming was his biological father after all, and his future affairs still needed her to arrange.
Three days later, after arranging everything, Shui Bingyu came to work at the police station early.
As soon as the meeting in the morning began, someone outside the police station sent a courier to Shui Bingyu.
The courier was quite old, estimated to be in his fifties, and as soon as he saw Shui Bingyu outside the gate of the police station, he handed over the parcel and urged her to sign.
Shui Bingyu looked at the parcel, which had nothing written on it except for the address. Xiao Li, who came out with her, coughed on the side at this time and shook his head.
Shui Bingyu understood what Xiao Li meant, he was afraid of the bomb in this parcel, but Shui Bingyu thought so, Liu Mengbai would not end this game easily, if he really used the bomb, he would lose the excitement of the game. Based on his understanding of Liu Mengbai, Shui Bingyu felt that he wouldn't.
Shui Bingyu finally signed, sent the courier away, and took the parcel in and checked it. She found that this parcel was very light, and she really didn't know what it contained? What did Liu Mengbai want to do?
Meng Xingchen still asked Shui Bingyu to be careful, he found a bomb disposal expert and carefully opened the email.
Just as Shui Bingyu thought, there was no bomb in the mail, but a small black gift box, at first glance, it looked like a ring box, and there was also a cassette tape.
Shui Bingyu opened the black gift box, and it was really a ring inside. Just looking at its color and material, Shui Bingyu was amazed again and again. Its white color, its jade-like material, and the fishy astringency emanating from it, made her think that it should be made of animal bones, but she couldn't taste what kind of animal it was. And there are some weird patterns carved on the outside.
Xiao Li found a tape recorder and put the cassette tape in it.
But the tape sat for half a minute, and there was nothing but the sound of clanging.
Shui Bingyu listened patiently again, and suddenly there was a piercing squeak, like someone sawing iron plates with a saw blade.
After processing, the voice said: "Little beauty, are you still satisfied with the ring? You are destined to be my bride in this life! I will definitely give you a few great gifts! Wait for me to marry you!" Hahahahaha!"
What does Liu Mengbai, a madman, want to do?
Connected with the successive deaths of Hao Ming, Liu Hanxiao, and Qinglang, as well as the strange ring, Shui Bingyu had a headache for a while, and even had a sense of fear, what was Liu Mengbai's big gift?
