In the dimly lit room, the places where the luminol reagent had been sprayed glowed faintly, and the floor, roof, and door cracks ...... Lots of them are connected together, everywhere, almost like a dizzying layer of wallpaper. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

There were traces of aged blood in the cracks of the sofa that had been removed, which were particularly shocking on the spotless light-colored floor.

The walls are covered with soundproofing materials, and in the middle of the living room hangs a photo wall, where the beautiful countryside and natural scenery are displayed in a staggered manner, full of elegant literary atmosphere - if not coated with "fluorescent film"

In the bedroom, there is a "shepherd picture", a meter high large picture frame is very weighty, there is a field technician staring at it for a while, feel that there is something wrong, take it off and check, and find that it is equipped with a candid camera, the lens just peeks out from the eyes of the shepherdess, which makes the quiet smile on the face of the girl in the painting have a bit of mystery for no reason.

The locked storage room next to the bedroom hides all sorts of knives and ropes that need to be identified by a forensic doctor......

None of the above, however, is as creepy as the zoomed-in photo on the south-facing window.

"Deputy Tao, you see, his window is old-fashioned, divided into two layers, inside and outside, with a layer of opaque curtains commonly used in hotels in the middle, and then the photos are pasted on the outside of the glass inside," the technician at the inspection site said to Tao Ran, "In this way, even if a solar storm breaks out outside, it can be blocked by this layer of anti-ultraviolet curtains, and there will be no strong light to penetrate the photo paper...... Tsk, but this photo of him is really knowledgeable! ”

The photograph is magnified to a subtle and precise scale, and in the realistic darkness, people stand in this room, which is really indistinguishable from morning and dusk, day and night, and at first glance, you may think that this is the night scene outside the glass window - the street is thin and narrow, the old buildings stand in a few rows, the distant street lamps are still a hundred meters away, the flower beds grow freely and scattered, the delicate flowers and weeds coexist, somehow withered a small patch, from a condescending angle, you can just see a faint light in the middle of the dead branches, The light source from somewhere reflected in the basement that loomed in the flower bed, and on the small window in the corner of the basement, there was a girl's blurred face.

This was important evidence, and the two on-site technicians cautiously stepped forward and removed the photograph along with the glass.

Tao Ran opened the blackout curtains and pushed open the outer window, at this moment, his pupils shrank, and the white sweat running under the sun suddenly subsided like a tide-

Tao Ran and Huo Ran saw that the pile of tower rulers and stones used to represent Wu Guangchuan's house outside the window were exactly the same as the corresponding positions in the photo after the window was closed.

"Deputy Tao! Tao vice! A police intern who was left by everyone to interrogate the property ran up in three steps and two steps, and began to shout in the corridor, "The property admitted!" said that this house is indeed a boarding house, but the tenants don't seem to live permanently, maybe they are white-collar workers who work nearby, come to take a nap or something, and the people in the property say that they don't fire much, and the water and electricity are not used quickly, so there should be no safety hazards, so ...... it! ”

"Be careful, this is the scene!"

"Don't rush in, stay away!"

The young man was dumbfounded when he saw this "spectacular" room at the door, and was smashed by his colleagues.

"There are no safety hazards," Tao Ran's eyes stared out the window without blinking, "Can the homeowner try to get in touch?" ”

"The owner of the house is abroad, and I just made a phone call, but it is an empty number, and I have to think of another way." The intern said this and remembered, "Oh, by the way, Deputy Tao, the parking space of 201 is occupied, and there is an SUV!" ”

The traffic management department quickly called up the information of the owner of the car - neither the owner of room 201, nor anyone related to the case, the registered owner of the car is an old man who can't be beaten, in addition to the household registration is still in Yancheng, has moved to other places for many years, received a call from the police, the old man was puzzled at first, until he heard the police ask for the license plate, he was a little panicked.

After asking again, I learned that although the license plate was his, the car was not.

After the old man retired, he went to live with his children in other places, and the license plate here was not needed, so he simply took advantage of the fact that the license plate number was not good in recent years, and rented it out privately, collecting some money every year, and it was not troublesome, as long as he showed up during the annual inspection, and the tenant even reimbursed him for the road expenses

"This ...... Do you have to pay a fine? Or do you want to have my driver's license deducted? The owner of the license plate kept explaining, "Comrade policeman, I really confiscated how much money, it's only more than 2,000 a year, don't believe me to show you the contract......"

"You illegally leased your personal license plate and signed a contract?" Tao Ran was speechless when he heard it, "Who is the person who signed the contract with you?" ”

"Oh...... It's a woman, named Su ...... Sue what? Oh yes, Su Xiaolan! ”

Tao Ran hung up the phone and turned around suddenly: "From the day Qu Tong disappeared to the present, check the trajectory of this car!" ”

"Deputy Tao, this car is not equipped with GPS and dash cam, can only look at the road network monitoring - the day before Qu Tong's family received the recording, the car went out of the city from the South Airport Expressway, and then turned into the Yangang Expressway, two hours later off the highway on the national highway, and half an hour, drove out of the national highway, turned outside the monitoring range, and returned the next day, without entering the gas station."

That is, the car, after leaving the national highway, did not go very far.

"What was there nearby when he left the national highway?"

"Some natural villages...... Seaside sanatorium, farm stay, oil painting village. ”

Coastal?

Tao Ran leaned closer to the photo wall in the living room, and one of the photos was taken just in time for a snapshot of the waves washing over the reef at sunset.

"Locate where all the photos on this wall were taken, and let's go!"

Tao Ran and they went out of the city, and Luo Wenzhou and Fei Du entered the city.

The sunset began to sink again, the heat was still steaming so much that people couldn't open their eyes, the Yancheng City Bureau finally stopped a little, when Luo Wenzhou came back, the information registration work had been basically completed, and the family members were asked to go home and wait for the news, a few people either lived far away and had no home to go back, or they were purely unwilling, still wandering in the city bureau, and the duty officer and the criminal investigation team had to arrange for them to go to the canteen to eat first.

Luo Wenzhou unscrewed a bottle of mineral water, took two bags of instant coffee from Lang Qiao's desk, poured it into the water bottle at the mouth of the bottle, and shook it vigorously a few times, the instant coffee reluctantly melted in the cold water, brewing out a curious color and a more curious taste, and then he drank a small half bottle under Fei Du's shocked gaze: "Look, I didn't drink urine again." ”

Fei Du felt his retina's stomach ache, as if his eyes had drunk a large sip of cold sesame oil, and he quickly looked away and stared intently at the photos they had turned out of the urn.

"More than 20 years, hundreds of missing girls, although the criteria for joining their 'membership' may be more demanding, but is the number of five suspects a bit small?" Fei Du flicked the photos in his hand, "And these look quite new, they should only be ...... in recent years."

As he said this, he suddenly lost his voice.

Luo Wenzhou glanced at him with a little doubt, and Fei Du carefully pinched up one of the photos through a piece of glasses cloth - it was a man with his head up, looking quite Sven, in his forties, and he looked quite good.

Each person who is photographed has several photos from different angles, which should be taken secretly, and then the more recognizable ones are left. The other photos of the man were either obscene and intoxicated, or their expressions were hideous and distorted, only this one had a little less expression, and it could be seen that it was a person.

"This man seems familiar." Fei Du rubbed his chin, "It's familiar, but I can't remember it, I definitely didn't know each other on business, I will deliberately pay attention to the other party's facial features when I receive business cards, and write them down at the back of the corresponding business card afterwards, so as to save me a long time and not be embarrassed to remember; It's definitely not people who have played together, there are only a few people who usually play together, and even if you bring someone here, you won't bring this kind of ...... Lackluster old man

。 My sensitivity to human faces is very average, and people who have been in love with one side usually don't remember it for more than a month, and that should be within 30 days. ”

Luo Wenzhou listened to Fei Du's dismantling of his memories very freshly with instant coffee like pee—he knew himself as well as an otaku about computer configurations, precise and objective, although he didn't necessarily remember everything, but all the behavior patterns were traceable.

He seemed to have torn open his brain from time to time, and had to break up every thought in it and study it carefully.

In this moment, Fei Du has quickly recalled the entire month's itinerary - a middle-aged man, a somewhat sullen mid-range Swiss watch on his wrist, has a certain economic strength, and it stands to reason that he will not appear in the place where the rich second-generation young people gather together......

At this time, Lang Qiao came in like a dead dog: "Boss, you're back, I don't want to settle the victim's family anymore!" I ......"

Luo Wenzhou held up a finger at her.

"Piano Master," Fei Du said suddenly, "In the Xiling Car Yard Club, there is a picture of him on the wall, and he happened to be absent on the day of Qu Tong's accident, so the boss invited a wild orchestra to help out...... Yes, even if it encounters a once-in-a-century encounter with a robber, the first reaction of people who are not familiar with the terrain is to retreat first and avoid the incident, rather than 'taking the sheep by the hand'. ”

"No wonder the surveillance at various intersections failed to photograph him that day, since it is a 'membership' system, there will definitely be a relationship between these people to introduce each other, and the other four can also follow the vine, the mastermind refuses to recruit, can't these little ghosts be tried?" Luo Wenzhou turned to Lang Qiao, "Don't you like to settle down your family, can you arrest people?" ”

When Lang Qiao heard the word "arrest", he slapped a tube of chicken blood on the spot, and the malaise of his body was swept away, and without saying a word, he took the photo and ran away.

Luo Wenzhou picked up the file and kicked a colleague who was napping in the office: "Wake up, go, and interrogate Xu Wenchao with me." ”

The two of them went out one after the other, Fei Du stood up and stretched a very restrained waist, the smell of smoke and sesame oil around him was all around, he felt that this place was very inappropriate to stay for a long time, and he was about to leave, but at this time, Luo Wenzhou went and returned.

"I have a few words to tell you," Luo Wenzhou said, "but you have to get down to business first, don't leave yet, you can wait in my office first." ”

After saying that, he hurried away again.

Fei Du was stunned, hesitated in place for a moment after taking half of his steps, and finally shrank back again.

After all, Xu Wenchao was not as heartless as Su Luozhan, and he obviously didn't fall asleep the night before.

His eye sockets were sunken, and he was mentally prepared for the police to take turns to interrogate him - it was nothing, and he had a clear alibi at the time of the two kidnappings.

It was precisely because of this that Su Luozhan dared to recruit him.

The Yancheng City Bureau is not a small police station in a remote county, and there are people watching every word and deed, and they absolutely do not dare to use any torture to extract a confession from a minor girl under the age of 14.

As for him, there was no actual evidence, and as soon as the time of detention came, they had to release him.

But who knew that after waiting for a whole day and a night, no one paid attention to him.

The police at the city bureau seem to have forgotten that there is such a person as him.

Xu Wenchao's face was calm and unwavering, but in the passage of too long time, he gradually lost his initial certainty, and his heart was a little up and down—could it be that they completely believed it after listening to their alibi? Gave up investigating him?

Although it's better to be like this...... But if his suspicion has been cleared, why haven't they released him?

Just when Xu Wenchao kept playing the drum in his heart, Luo Wenzhou walked in with someone

"The smell of smoke on his body is a little heavier," Luo Wenzhou pulled out a chair and sat down opposite him, "I'm sorry, it's mainly to pull your fox tail, and I've been busy all night." ”

Xu Wenchao was shocked when he heard this, adjusted his sitting posture slightly, and looked at Luo Wenzhou with an immobile gaze: "I really don't have anything to say about this matter." ”

Luo Wenzhou smiled at him, and said as if very casually: "What is the relationship between you and Su Luozhan?" ”

"I'm her mom's fiancé." Xu Wenchao replied patiently, "Officer, I have already answered this question. ”

"I know you're Su Xiaolan's fiancé," Luo Wenzhou raised his eyebrows, and suddenly looked at him with some kind of meaningful gaze, "I just want to know, are you going to marry Su Xiaolan, are you going to have a relationship with that remnant flower and willow, or are you in love with her little daughter?" ”

Xu Wenchao was stunned for a moment, then his eyes widened suddenly, and he couldn't hide his anger and said, "This police officer, are you speaking responsibly!" ”

Luo Wenzhou's face did not change: "Su Xiaolan is an orphan and widow, no education, no background, no serious job, the source of life is a mystery, there are many unpleasant rumors, what about Mr. Xu, you have a successful career, a complete RV, and a good person, you should be an ideal object, I have always wondered, if what you said is true, why is she unwilling to marry you?" ”

"Marriage and love cannot be measured by material conditions," Xu Wenchao sneered, barely suppressing his anger and maintaining his demeanor, "Besides, this is a private matter between my doors, I think-"

Luo Wenzhou interrupted him: "She refuses to marry you, is it because she treats money like dung, or do you not want to marry her?" ”

Xu Wenchao said coldly: "What does this have to do with the case?" You can interrogate me about everything, even if I'm innocent, but you can't insult my ......"

Luo Wenzhou interrupted him again: "Insult the ...... you posted on the bedroom window facing south in Room 201, Unit 3, Building 8, Xiangyang Community Love? ”

Xu Wenchao's body froze suddenly, and the blood on his face faded like a tide.

There was silence in the interrogation room for a while.

The criminal policeman who followed the transcript next to him was busy all night, and he had just been in a daze in the duty room, and before he had time to keep up with the latest progress of his colleagues, he couldn't help but yawn by turning the page to cover it, and when he heard this, half of his yawn was stuck in his throat, and he looked at Luo Wenzhou and Xu Wenchao in a daze.

Xu Wenchao's ears roared, and the irritability in Fang Cai's heart that was aroused by the other party's words was like a fuse for a fire, and a thunderbolt fell from the sky, and a fire ignited along the lead, and he squeezed out a sentence of denial from his throat with difficulty: "What are you talking about...... What the? ”

"Xiangyang Community, Building No. 8, your photography works from your youth are still pasted on the window," Luo Wenzhou said word by word, "There are blood stains at the scene, which means that the DNA can still be traced, and there is your hair in the SUV in the parking space of the house, as well as the photos taken by the peeping eyes behind the picture frame, which Su Xiaolan personally handed over to me just now." ”

He smiled and reached out and knocked on the table: "Mr. Xu, can we talk now?" ”
