Chapter 26 The Mysterious Woman
The deceased was carrying a backpack and looked like a little boy, queuing up at the theater bar to buy tickets, and from time to time he turned back to look outside the distant surveillance, smiling and his mouth moving, probably talking to people. But the person who spoke to the deceased never appeared in the video.
"The deceased was talking to people. Meng Xingchen said while watching the video.
"I can see it. Moreover, this person is cunning and knows how to dodge the camera. Shui Bingyu replied.
"Team Meng, call up the surveillance video of the ticket gate. Shui Bingyu continued.
Meng Xingchen transferred to the monitoring of the ticket gate again, and finally saw the person who was with the deceased, wearing a black tracksuit, a baseball cap, and a mask, and he couldn't see his face clearly, but he could see the long hair that was scattered, and he was undoubtedly a woman.
"This woman, who can deliberately hide her identity and deliberately avoid the camera, shows that she is very smart, but the person who can create this kind of unsolved case must also be a person with brains. But she's not very familiar with the environment, otherwise she would never have exposed her face to the surveillance, and we wouldn't have seen her wearing a mask. From the surveillance, it can be seen that the deceased was smiling, and he was very happy with this woman, and he was obviously very close to this person. The three suicides were all 'depressed', and this is a key common denominator at which we need to get more information to make a judgment. Shui Bingyu said slowly after watching the video.
Meng Xingchen nodded in agreement.
"Next, Team Meng, I suggest that we send people to the homes of the three deceased to understand the situation, and then find their previous attending psychologist who treated 'depression' and get the deceased's case files. Shui Bingyu said.
Meng Xingchen then called to arrange for someone to collect the materials.
Shui Bingyu volunteered to go to the boy's house who jumped off the building in the "Happy Community".
Shui Bingyu stood in front of the door of the deceased's villa, uneasy, and never dared to knock on the door. Their arbitrary conclusion of suicide that day broke the heart of the deceased's mother. After much hesitation, she rang the doorbell anyway.
"Why are you? What are you doing here?" said the deceased's mother angrily as she opened the door.
Shui Bingyu hurriedly smiled and said, "Auntie, I am really sorry for what happened last time, but this time I am here to help you." ”
The mother of the deceased did not buy it, and said coldly: "Help us? Hehe, I really want to thank you." Didn't you police already decide that my son had committed suicide?"
Shui Bingyu said ashamedly: "Auntie, our conclusions that day were a bit arbitrary. I'm really here to help you, your son may have been killed. ”
The deceased's mother suddenly shook her body, her eyes were full of tears, and she slowly opened the door of the house and said, "Come in." ”
In the large living room of the deceased's house, the two sat opposite each other, and Shui Bingyu carefully heard the deceased's mother tell about her son: "When he was very young, his father abandoned my mother and son. At that time, the conditions of our family were not as they are now, and I worked several jobs by myself, and it was very difficult to raise him. Later, I started a business with my friends, and finally by chance, my career was successful. However, I was too obsessed with my work, and I only thought about creating a good economic environment for my children, but I did not really pay attention to my children's physical and mental growth, resulting in my children becoming a withdrawn person. He didn't make friends since he was a child, and he stayed at home all the time during the holidays, so he was suffocated into 'depression'. I'm so ashamed......" The deceased's mother's voice choked up.
Shui Bingyu hurriedly comforted: "Auntie, please mourn, I think your son's spirit in the sky will definitely understand Auntie's love for her son." After all, parents in the world love their children. ”
The mother of the deceased silently wiped away her tears.
Shui Bingyu said again: "I hope Auntie can provide us with more information, so that we can comfort the undead with actions." ”
The deceased's mother nodded.
Shui Bingyu smiled and said, "Auntie, tell me, did your son have any strange behaviors before the accident?"
The mother of the deceased collected her tears and replied: "There are many strange places, didn't he suffer from 'depression' before, I found a psychiatrist to treat him, but it has not worked." Later, in the week before his accident, he suddenly began to go out more often as if he was completely cured, and he had a lot more smiles on his face. Because I saw my son getting better, I thought that the doctor had cured me, and I was quite happy. But the day before his accident, he became depressed again, even more depressed than ever, and kept muttering 'Why...... Why?', I was very worried and asked him, but he wouldn't say. The next day, I went out alone, and in the evening, the police informed me that he ...... "she couldn't hold back her tears again."
Shui Bingyu fully understands that it takes courage to dig deep into her own sadness.
After the deceased's mother held back her grief again, Shui Bingyu said, "Can you introduce me to your son's psychiatrist?" I want to learn about your son's psychological condition through him, hoping to find out who killed your son. ”
The mother of the deceased said: "No problem, my son's doctor is Professor Zhang from the 'Qingfeng Psychological Counseling Center', I will give you his phone number." ”
Professor Zhang is a middle-aged man with glasses who appears to be a conservative-minded diehard.
Sure enough, at first he did not agree to give Shui Bingyu the information of the deceased, and said in a heartfelt manner: "No, I can't give you the patient's information, this is professional ethics!"
So Shui Bingyu threatened him and said, "If you don't cooperate with the investigation, then I will only come back tomorrow with a search warrant from the police station." At that time, don't blame the bad influence on your mental clinic. ”
Professor Zhang thought for a moment and weighed the pros and cons before he began to talk to Shui Bingyu about the deceased.
Professor Zhang said: "When this child first came to see the doctor, he was 14 years old, his soul was very fragile, his psychological trauma came from his family, he lacked the warmth of the family since he was a child, his personality was introverted, he had no friends, and suppressed all kinds of bad emotions unconsciously, which led to his eventual 'depression'. I tried to reshape his heart and personality, but failed, and in the end I could only relieve part of his pain with medication, but the root cause could not be solved. He hasn't been to me for the last two months. ”
Shui Bingyu said, "Then you can let me take away his case." ”
"Absolutely. Professor Zhang squeezed out a smile and slowly took out the documents from the drawer.
Shui Bingyu returned to the police station with the case, and at this time, Meng Xingchen and another police officer who went to investigate also returned.
The police officer said: "I went to investigate the boy who hanged himself at home, the family economic conditions are very good, he has suffered from 'depression' in the past two years, according to his psychiatrist, the cause is because of the loss of love, and he has not gone to the psychiatrist for treatment recently, but his condition has improved, but he did not expect that the day before the suicide, he fell ill again, and finally hanged himself at home." ”
Meng Xingchen also recounted what he had investigated.
Shui Bingyu said: "What I investigated is similar. Now let's sort it out. ”
Meng Xingchen thought for a moment and said: "The deceased are all college students aged 18-22, their family conditions are particularly wealthy, their gender is not uniform, they all suffer from 'depression', and their condition improved on the first day of suicide, and they all committed suicide, which is the common denominator." At the moment we have found a suspect, judging by her appearance, a woman. Now there are three questions to think about: first, if this woman is a suspect, how did she sift through those commonalities and find the three deceased? second, how did she get all three of them to commit suicide? and third, why did she do that?"
Shui Bingyu continued: "The three deceased are all 'depressed' patients, what do they need most? Depression's mental damage, heart disease also needs heart medicine, only companionship and care can treat their disease, the suspect made full use of this, we can see the surveillance we saw in the Universal Cinema, the boy who fell from the building is very close to the suspect, but how did she find these young people, I still need more information to reason; her purpose, it is very likely that it is for money, this is to take into account the economic conditions of the three people's family, but the most difficult thing for me to figure out is how she made all three of them commit suicide?"
"It's not too early today, everyone goes home to rest first, and then think about ideas. Meng Xingchen looked at the time and said.
Shui Bingyu declined the invitation to have dinner with Meng Xingchen and wandered the street alone.
In fact, Shui Bingyu didn't know where she was going, she just wanted to think differently and think about the problem from a different angle, so she would wander the streets alone.
On the street, people came and went, traffic was busy, and unconsciously, Shui Bingyu walked to the lake, she sat on a chair by the river, staring at the lake blankly, trying to think.
A teenager who is "depressed" will come to this kind of place alone like this on weekdays, and he will be in a daze, right?
The sky was getting dark, and there were some night runners by the lake who shuttled in front of Shui Bingyu, but they didn't get into Shui Bingyu's eyes, she kept thinking in a daze.
Suddenly, a large patch of red appeared in front of Shui Bingyu's eyes.
Shui Bingyu came back to her senses, looked at the red carefully, it turned out to be red clothes, she was very angry, she hated being disturbed when she was thinking.
Shui Bingyu looked up along the red, and the anger that was about to explode disappeared at this time.
It is a face, a handsome and delicate face, this man's face is so handsome, as if all the words in the world to describe a beautiful boy are not enough to describe the handsomeness of this face.
"Little girl, are you alright? "What a beautiful voice, it seems that only such a beautiful young man has such a beautiful voice.
Shui Bingyu's heart, which had been sleeping for a long time, slowly began to melt, and her expression became rarely shy, like a little girl, and she said embarrassedly: "No... It's okay. ”
"Little girl, I see that your face is not good, is there anything bothering? If so, you are welcome to come to our "comfort meeting". The young man handed Shui Bingyu a leaflet as he spoke.
Shui Bingyu took it carefully, and when her hand inadvertently touched the boy's skin, she suddenly felt an electric shock.
When Shui Bingyu came to his senses, the beautiful boy had disappeared without a trace.
She couldn't help but look down at the leaflet in her hand, the advertising slogan on the leaflet "Join the Comfort Club, forget your sorrows, and smile proudly".
"Comfortable will", what an elegant name, comfortable?
