Three days before the semester spring outing

Li Quan, the captain of the criminal police team of the Municipal Bureau, came to Shengtian High School early in the morning, and came to Dou Jihong's office familiarly.

"Oops. Teacher Dou, you drink tea yourself. Li Quan smiled.

"No one else can replace this matter for the time being." Dou Jihong said with a smile.

"Come, Teacher Dou, it's hot, drink some new fetal chrysanthemums to cool off the heat" Li Quan handed over a few bags of tea.

"You said you, come here, come here, take something, so polite." Dou Jihong quickly took the tea leaves and put them in the drawer and locked them.

Li Quan gave Dou Jihong a cigarette, Dou Jihong didn't smoke, Li Quan lit it himself, took a sharp puff, and hid his face in the white smoke, "Two days ago, there was a case, it was very evil, see if you have time, help us assist in the investigation." ”

"Tell me about it." Dou Jihong wrinkled a cup of tea.

"That's it, it's not the dolls who went on a spring outing recently, I went to visit a cultural exhibition of a high school in the jurisdiction a few days ago." Li Quan began to speak.

"Now the dolls' ideas are very trendy, what kind of gothic dress up at the cultural exhibition, Japanese anime cosplay, it feels good, but the most arrogant thing is what, that is, a doll in the art interest group made a plaster mask, what is it called" resurrected dead man mask "This is simply too realistic, the eyelashes are eyelashes, the wrinkles on the face are wrinkles, and there is a mole under the corner of the mouth, which looks like the skin of a human face is attached to the plaster. Li Quan's gaze drifted into the distance, still reminiscing about the shock brought by this mask.

"Hmm" Dou Jihong took an undeniable sip of tea.

"We were looking fascinated, and a physical education teacher came with a crying middle-aged woman, and when the middle-aged woman saw the plaster mask, she burst into tears, and kept saying that the mask was the face of his son, who had been missing for a few days."

Li Quan added another cigarette.

"The middle-aged woman didn't do it, crying and fussing, and asked in a terrible voice how this mask was made, shouting and shouting, and then she found the doll that made this plaster mask."

The doll quickly took out an identical aluminum mask from her schoolbag, saying that she had picked it up in the pond in Swan Lake Park in the industrial area, and felt very energetic, so she took it out and copied it with plaster. Li Quan said this, extinguished his cigarette, took out the aluminum mask from his bag, and put it on the table.

Dou Jihong stood up, looked at the aluminum mask from top to bottom, and pointed with his hand, "What is this dimple on the forehead?" ”

Li Quan smiled appreciatively, "According to my years of experience, I judged that this was a bullet hole, so I arranged for personnel to carry out salvage operations in the pond in Swan Lake Park, and the result." ”

"Is there really a corpse?" Dou Jihong sat down.

"Yes, the deceased, Ma Yukteng, a native of the industrial zone, was 33 years old and worked for a cultural media company. Single and unmarried, a person rents a house in a business district. Li Quan began to look through the dossier materials.

"His whereabouts were unknown a few days ago, and his mother has been reported missing. According to the initial autopsy, Ma Yuteng's brain was pierced by a bullet, and it has been concluded that this is a homicide. Li Quan put Ma Yuteng's photo on the table.

"How did this deceased's mother end up at that school?" Dou Jihong picked up the mask and looked at it.

"The physical education teacher at the school knew the whole family of the deceased, and when he saw the mask and recognized the deceased, he notified the deceased's mother." Li Quan lit another cigarette.

Dou Jihong was silent for a while, and then opened his mouth, "This mask is indeed well done, and all kinds of lines are vivid, but why does the mask of the deceased appear under the water?" ”

"I can't say anything in this uniform, but I think" Li Quan suddenly lowered his voice.

"This is the grievance of the deceased, by making a piece of aluminum transform into his own face, so that people can pick it up. It is to tell others that you are dead under the water, waiting for someone to salvage you. ”

Dou Jihong didn't speak, and was silent for a while.

"Come back tomorrow, I'll arrange something first."

Two days before the semester spring outing

Li Quan took a few colleagues to the physics laboratory of the new teaching building of Shengtian as agreed. Dou Jihong was lowering his head, fiddling with some objects on the workbench, and when he saw Li Quan and the others coming, he nodded and opened his mouth.

"Here, Captain Li, you can arrange someone to cooperate with my experiment."

Li Quan appointed a young police officer.

Dou Jihong picked up a medium-sized aluminum sheet on the workbench, gestured left and right, and opened his mouth.

"No matter how this piece of aluminum becomes the face of a dead man, it must be formed through external physical force, let's see if we can directly make this piece of aluminum become the appearance of a human face through force." Dou Jihong came to the young police officer with an aluminum sheet.

"Lean against the wall, hold on."

"Please rest assured, the leader can greet your face vigorously!"

Dou Jihong covered the young police officer's face with the aluminum sheet, and it could be seen that he put a lot of effort to press the aluminum sheet on the young police officer's face, and adjusted it several times, but he couldn't image it on the aluminum sheet. The young officer's face was flushed, his nose collapsed, his mouth was red, and only the irregular ripples of his face were left on the smooth surface of the folded aluminum.

Dou Jihong looked at the aluminum sheet in his hand and said, "The skin on the face is too weak to withstand the pressure and can't be imaged." ”

"Teacher Dou, will it be because the deceased has a stiff face after his death, so he can form a face with aluminum sheets?" Li Quan asked.

"Stiffness after death?" Dou Jihong asked rhetorically.

"Yes."

"Even if it is stiff after death, the face will not be as hard as a stone, and it is impossible to image it." Dou Jihong's face was solemn.

"Then why did this come about?" Li Quan asked.

"Take me to the site."

Swan Lake Park in the industrial zone.

The pond where the wrecked bodies were found is in the northeast corner of the park, a natural pond surrounded by willows, strolling along the path along the pond, with tattered furniture piled up everywhere and broken shoes scattered all over the ground.

"This person who doesn't know thinks it's a garbage disposal center!" Dou Jihong said.

"Is this a free park, there's such an open space, everyone comes here and throws things around." Li Quan was not surprised.

The further back I went, I found more than a dozen piles of building materials piled up in it, steel rings, aluminum window frames, iron sheets and so on, rusty in the sun.

"This is also a temporary storage base, and some construction materials from the nearby construction site have also been piled up here, and the aluminum sheet of the face mask is one of the materials." Li Quan explained.

Several people stood by the pond, looking at the dark green pool of stagnant water, and were silent for a while.

"Hey, the quality of our people is so poor, a good pool of clear water, it was made into this rotten and dirty appearance by littering." Li Quan sighed.

"In fact, it's all the same, every country is the same as us, treating nature roughly, with the progress of science and technology, the moral character of human beings has been degrading, and this kind of thing has no end to one day!" Dou Jihong made a conclusion.

The pond was covered with tattered clothes, like a torn corpse.

"Tell me about the deceased." Dou Jihong returned to reality.

"What can be determined now is that the deceased was killed at about 3 p.m. five days ago, and the last time the deceased was seen was at noon five days ago, when he was out of the community, he was seen by an old woman on duty in the community." Li Quan flipped through the materials.

"Why do these old women on duty pay so much attention to the deceased?" Dou Jihong asked.

"It's because the deceased bought a rather stylish Honda motorcycle sports car, and wore a golden helmet to swagger around the market every day."

Dou Jihong nodded: "He was shot?" Shot by what? ”

"Killed by a 4.1 caliber pistol."

"This caliber doesn't seem to be my country's standard equipment," Dou Jihong turned around.

"Yes, the source of the guns is extremely complex." As soon as Li Quan finished speaking, the mobile phone on his body rang dripping.

"Hey, I'm Li Quan, oh, Forensic Doctor Zhang, hello, hello, you ......" Li Quan, who listened to the phone, said to Dou Jihong.

"Forensic Doctor Zhang said that there was a new discovery in the corpse!"

Municipal Bureau Dissection Room.

"Oh, Mr. Dou, you came to help investigate this case in person." Forensic Doctor Zhang took off his rubber gloves and shook hands with Dou Jihong warmly.

"You've worked hard, tell me, what did you find in the body?"

"This is that, in the blood test part of the results showed that the victim Ma Yuteng had abnormally few lymphocytes in his blood." Forensic doctor Zhang helped his gold-rimmed glasses. Several photographs were pulled out of the file.

Dou Jihong took a look, and there were several close-up images of gray nails on the photo.

"These nails are showing signs of decay and falling off." Dou Jihong replied.

"At the same time, the characteristics of hypertrophy appeared." Forensic doctor Zhang picked it up.

Dou Jihong nodded.

"Look at the report again." Forensic Doctor Zhang handed Dou Jihong another document.

Li Quan took a closer look, "What is this?" What are the results of the ESR analysis? What is ESR? ”

"ESR uses electron spin resonance to measure the effects of radiation accumulated in tooth enamel." Dou Jihong replied.

"Oh, yes, yes, what's that about?" Li Quan rubbed his big face.

"To put it simply, the victim was exposed to radiation." Forensic doctor Zhang replied.

"Radiation? In broad daylight, where are the victims exposed to radiation? Li Quan didn't understand.

"Last time, you said, what kind of cultural company is Ma Yuteng?" Dou Jihong asked.

"What kind of cultural media company is it, mainly engaged in culture-related work." Li Quan replied.

"What kind of work is that?"

"I don't know, the cultural media has always been a god's chatter." Li Quan spread his hands.

"You have to implement the nature of this company, how can people who do this kind of work be exposed to radiation?" After Dou Jihong finished speaking, he stared at the blood test sheet again.

"Sodium 24?" Dou Jihong raised his head and looked at Forensic Doctor Zhang suspiciously.

"It's just, it's so rare." Forensic Zhang agreed.

"What, 24 is worth it? What is the value of 24? Li Quan asked puzzled.

"Indicates that the victim is likely to be exposed to neutron radiation."

"Well, there are many industries and opportunities that are exposed to radiation, and if it is neutron radiation, then the range is more controllable."

Dou Jihong, Forensic Doctor Zhang sang and harmonized.

Li Quan's eyes rolled around, "So what?" "Where can the scope be determined?"

"It's about atomic energy, and it's going to involve the specialized research facilities of university labs, and it's all within this range." Dou Ji's red eyes glowed.

That same evening

"Oh, Teacher Dou, I'm really bothering you, and you have to come to help me solve the case after class." Li Quan handed Dou Jihong a handful of lamb skewers.

Dou Jihong took the lamb skewers, and in the evening breeze and cool dusk, they feasted on Wuquan beer, and among the figures, the two sat at a small table in the night market on the street, watching the crowds on the street come and go, like on a safety island on a busy street, watching the cars everywhere stretching their headlights.

"You're welcome, how did that company check?"

Li Quan took out several pages of documents from his bag: "The victim's company is mainly contracted to identify, circulate, purchase, and sell some cultural relics. ”

"Aren't these artifacts coming from the right place?" Dou Jihong asked.

"This ...... Not to mention, the victim's company is engaged in the category of cultural relics mainly books, and all of them are foreign language books, this foreign language book in our country, as long as it is not political, does not have the conditions for circulation, the number is generally very small, most of them are brought by international friends, and the boundaries of this market at the monitoring level are very blurred. Li Quan and Dou Jihong touched a glass of beer.

"What type of books are the main ones?" Dou Jihong wiped off the beer foam that was stained on his beard.

"This ...... It's a Western religious book, a Christian angel and a demon, and so on, anyway, it's very mysterious. Li Quan lit a cigarette and looked into the distance.

"How did you come back from that company and feel like you had something on your mind?" Dou Jihong noticed Li Quan's abnormality.

"No, it's just that I checked the victim's company today and saw the industry they were engaged in, and suddenly I felt and felt ......" Li Quan didn't know what to say, and poured a big sip of beer.

"Teacher Dou, do you have faith?" Li Quan poured himself beer.

"Faith, what is faith?" Dou Jihong also drank a glass of beer by himself.

"I've been doing this work for so long, I already feel that I've become numb, every day in the face of either dead people, or dead people, all I have to do is to treat the dead people as a prop, through the information released by this prop, to find out why someone wants to kill, how to kill people, and then bring the murderer to justice, within three days, these props will be forgotten by me, I have seen a lot of people who should not be killed are dead, people who should not be murderers kill people, the nature of the work makes me not think about this face, I thought my heart was strong enough to ignore all life and death. Li Quan stared into the distance, his mouth like a river.

"People are born to die, no matter what the way is, what the time node is, the final outcome is already doomed, you just have seen too much, and you feel that this process has been accelerated, like a formula, so you want to find a faith to comfort yourself, right?" Dou Jihong and Li Quan touched a glass of beer.

"No, faith seems to be a necessity for human beings, everyone can choose their favorite religion according to their own preferences, to invest their own feelings into it, just like a lonely boat in the sea to find its own sail, but human beings are fragile, and would rather put money into the wishing fountain than use it to buy dinner." Li Quan poured himself another glass of wine.

"If faith can be measured in terms of money, it is a transaction between human beings and the God in their hearts, and true faith is to calm your heart, have the courage to meet the arrival of every tomorrow, find faith, and find this energy, when this energy fills your body, you will be fearless." Dou Jihong and Li Quan clink glasses.

"Over the years, I've seen countless photos of victims, and every time I look at the photos of the corpses for more than three hours, I feel more and more clearly, I can see a clear signal from the faces and eyes of these corpses, as if these corpses are very happy for you to do this, and these corpses will send me a clear signal to tell me that what they are experiencing now is a complete relief, although they will be scared at first, but they will finally find that letting go is so simple, and at the last moment, They will see that the series of farces in themselves, themselves and everyone else in this world, is nothing more than a sense of sorrow that comes from self-fiction, and that absurd stupid self-aspirations are just a rough assumption of dead letter. And now, you can finally let go, there is no need to hold on any longer, your love and hate, your memories and pain, all one, all the same dream, a daydream you have in your bed in your empty room. Li Quan poured another glass of beer.

"A dream about how to practice life, like all dreams, at the end of the dream, there will be a monster, now this monster out of the dream, has lived in my heart, when it bites the past in my heart, I found out that I have not been numb at all, I have never even been alive, I just made a very competent marionette, just want to play all the actions of this puppet, the love and hatred of the interpretation of the vivid, but not for myself to perform. This monster is coming, and it won't go. Li Quan's two lines of hot tears flowed down his cheeks.

"What the hell did you see in those books?" Dou Jihong stretched out his right hand glowing red and pressed it on Li Quan's shoulder.

"I am...... I am...... Those books, really, really tear everything apart. Li Quan covered his big face and kept sobbing.

Dou Jihong looked around and no one was paying attention, broke Li Quan's hands, and stroked Li Quan's face with a red palm, Li Quan stopped his tears and looked at Dou Jihong blankly.

"Captain Li, you've been too tired for the past two days, and you've drunk a little too much. Go back and rest early! Dou Jihong persuaded gently.

"Well, I just remembered that when I was investigating the victim's company, I found out that he had been working for a professor at Blue State University recently." Li Quan took out his notebook.

"Yes, that's right, the professor of history at Lanzhou University, named Shin Ishihara, is a big customer of this company." Li Quan confirmed.

"Okay, you can investigate the specific business dealings between the victim and Shin Ishihara." Dou Jihong got up and said goodbye.

The day before the semester spring outing

Dou Jihong walked to the path of the pond in Swan Lake Park, saw the sprinkled shade of trees, and weaved a staggered grid pattern on the mountain of waste, accompanied by the subtle sound of insects chirping peaks, Dou Jihong stood on the edge of the pond.

Eyes swept around, a faint red line loomed under the water surface on the shore, squatted down, found a branch, fiddled with the red line, and when the red line surfaced, it was a copper wire protruding from the rubber tube, Dou Jihong pondered for a while, and used the branch to constantly touch the melon along the vine, and came to the end of the rubber pipe in a few seconds, but it was tied to a long iron pillar buried at the bottom of the pool.

Dou Jihong got the end, reached out and grabbed the rubber tube, and with a little force, he easily pulled out the iron pillar buried deep in the pond, including the radish with mud, to the shore, and looked at it carefully.

After a while, Dou Jihong shouted, smashed his palms with his fists, and took out his mobile phone and dialed a number.

"Captain Li, it's me, you use the relationship of the Meteorological Bureau to transfer a file for me."

On the day of the semester spring outing

Li Quan took a few young police officers to the physics laboratory of the new teaching building of Saint Heaven. Pushing open the door and entering, I saw Dou Jihong open a big battle, and there were huge capacitors stacked in several corners of the classroom, and several rubber tubes under the capacitors converged into a transparent water tank in the middle of the experiment.

"Oh, Mr. Dou, what are you doing experiments?" Li Quan looked at the novelty.

"Be careful not to touch these capacitors." Dou Jihong advised.

"Oh, if you touch it, you'll be burned to ashes." Li Quan understands the reason.

"That's not it, when the capacitor is placed, it will be slowly charged due to static electricity, if you are fully charged, you will be knocked out the moment you touch it, but this is the second floor, at least you don't have to worry about falling to death." Dou Jihong comforted with kind words.

Li Quan cautiously walked in front of Dou Jihong, "Here, this is the file you asked me to transfer from the Meteorological Bureau." ”

"Okay" Dou Jihong took it and put it on the workbench.

"Teacher Dou, what are you?" Li Quan asked.

"Let's look at this tank, which is used to simulate a pond in Swan Lake Park." Dou Jihong pointed with his hand.

It was only then that everyone could see that a plaster human head had been placed in the water tank. On the opposite side of the human head is a decently sized sheet of aluminum.

"Look at this simulated lightning device again." Dou Jihong pointed to several copper-colored iron balls above the water tank. An iron ball at the top can be touched by a few centimeters from an iron ball on a capacitor.

"This is where the electrode is, and this device can be used to generate small thunder," Dou Jihong explained.

"Generate thunder? What to do with Ray? The crowd asked.

"I'm afraid that lightning fell into that pond, and the iron pillar found in the pond should have been in place of a lightning rod. The electrical energy accumulated in the thundercloud was released at once against the iron pipe, but the iron pillar was wrapped with wires, and its tip was submerged in water. So, the electrical energy is released into the water through the wires, and what happens if the wires can't withstand that much power? Dou Jihong asked a question.

Everyone was silent for a while, "Teacher Dou, you continue to follow your train of thought, don't worry about us." ”

"Start experimenting!" Dou Jihong paced to the main switch, and took out a pair of thick glasses from his arms and put them on.

"Oh, Mr. Dou, have you changed your appearance?" Li Quan quipped.

"There may be debris splashing later, I'll use this instead of safety glasses."

The crowd hurriedly covered their eyes with both hands.

Dou Jihong pressed a few switches lightly, pointed to the electrodes of the two copper balls and said, "Between these two electrodes, there will be a potential difference of tens of thousands of volts, and there is a space between the two electrodes, but once the potential difference reaches the strength of breaking through this layer of space......"

Before the words fell, a zizi sound sounded, and the two copper balls were wrapped in golden light, and all the light in the entire space seemed to be absorbed by this light, and at the same time, the temperature was constantly rising, and for a few seconds, Li Quan felt that he had been completely suffocated, and he closed his eyes for a while, and when he opened it again, the golden light had disappeared, and the originally clear water tank became foggy, and he couldn't really see the situation inside.

When the fog slowly cleared, everyone could see that the aluminum flakes were tightly wrapped around the plaster man's head, the nose was the nose, the eyes were the eyes, and the pixels were abnormally high.

Under the stunned gaze of everyone, Dou Jihong fished out the aluminum face mask from the water tank, "This is the truth of the deceased's face!" ”

"This ...... This...... What's going on? Everyone stared at Dou Jihong with wide eyes.

"This is the effect of the shock wave, because the energy is too strong, so the wire melts in the middle of the moment, and at the moment of melting, the water produces a shock wave with a strong force, and the shock wave squeezes the object within its range from the outside, exerting force, and this aluminum sheet is hard pressed into the human face." Dou Jihong began to popularize science.

"How do you know that?" The crowd asked.

"The technology of using shock waves to process metal has been mastered for a long time, and this is how technology such as gold braces with teeth wrapping comes about."

Well, everyone thinks about when they will also go to get a gold tooth is a serious thing.

"I have never thought of a solution to how to generate a shock wave, but through this experiment, it has been proved that it is generated by an external force." Dou Jihong took the meteorological file of the Meteorological Bureau, looked through it for a while, and laughed confidently.

"In the days when the victim presumed to have died, lightning fell in Swan Lake Park, and everything was transparent!" Dou Jihong began to clean up the scene.

"Well, I'm also making progress on Shin Ishihara's line." Li Quan opened his mouth.

"Tell me."

"Shin Ishihara is an avid collector of those kinds of books, and Ma Yuteng often helps him buy and sell related books, and guess what?" Li Quan began to sell guanzi.

"In order to identify the age of the purchased books and the authenticity of the paper, Ma Yuteng often goes to the secondary atomic research institute of Lanzhou University to use nuclear magnetic resonance equipment and isotope equipment to identify the authenticity of the books." Dou Jihong didn't care.

"Yes, so the victim's own exposure to radiation can be explained." Li Quan wanted to help Dou Jihong clean up, but he didn't know how to start.

"Given that Ma Yuteng is in full swing to help Ishihara Shen deal with related business, it is very likely that there will be a conflict between the two, so Ishihara Shin is very likely to shoot Ma Yuteng." Li Quan said confidently.

"That's your police's business, you just need to investigate why someone wants to kill people and how to kill them through props." Dou Jihong looked at Li Quan meaningfully.

Li Quan's thoughts drifted into the distance again.

The phone rings.

A police officer picked up his mobile phone, and after a while, he listened to the call and reported to Li Quan.

"I just received a report that in the water park of West Lake Park in the industrial zone, someone witnessed a cruise ship disappearing on the lake after a huge blue shock wave rose on the lake, with several students of Holy Heaven on it."

Everyone looked at each other.

"Mr. Dou, this shockwave sounds very similar to the shockwave of your experiment!" Li Quan said excitedly.

"It's a student from our school, so I'm going to take a look!" Jihong's face suddenly became solemn.

Screaming sirens blared in West Lake Park.

On the shore of the water park, students from several schools are densely packed, all of them looking at the dark green lake in fear.

Dou Jihong and the others came to the shore, investigated and collected evidence for a long time, and stopped on the shore closest to the place of the accident.

Dou Jihong jumped around in the shallows by the lake, picked up a handful of lake water and put it under his nose and sniffed it again, shook off the lake water in his hand with a calm face, and motioned for Li Quan to come over and say a few words to himself alone.

"Captain Li, have you ever wondered if there would be no faith in this world without God?" Dou Jihong asked.

"Without God, there would be no religion, and people would not know what to believe, and where would there still be faith?" Li Quan asked puzzled.

"You must think that if humanity did not have faith, the world would be on the verge of destruction." Dou Jihong began to speak.

"However, if we only hope for God's reward to make people go on the right path, the bottom line of human beings is too low."

Li Quan looked at Dou Jihong puzzled.

"God is essentially a law, under which man transfers his fear and self-loathing into the container of authoritarianism, just to not want to be different from others, and under the imprint of this deep fear, man has made up the word of God to suck away everyone's fear, and because of this, whether or not the human language spoken by God's mouth is convincing is directly proportional to the certainty of the story sketched by man himself, because, no matter how it is interpreted, God has already stood."

The Dou Jihong in Li Quan's eyes began to twist into a crimson flame.

It seems that the thick-haired Teacher Dou is still seducing.

"Religion is a virus of language, which can change the path of the human brain, dull critical thinking, and human beings cannot see where the gods they have created will take them, or that God is still God, but has nothing to do with human beings, because God is just God!"

"Teacher Dou, you told me so much, I don't understand it at all!" Li Quan spread his hands and laughed stupidly.

"I went back to the lab to get some equipment to find out the cause of the shockwave. At the same time, if someone in this incident ends up missing, you don't have to look for it anymore, and it is very likely that it will be turned into particulate matter under the powerful shock wave of the electric melting. After Dou Jihong finished speaking, he began to prepare to open the way.

"Mr. Dou, you are really a model in the physics world," Li Quan gave a thumbs up.

"There, there, there is still a gap with Einstein!" Dou Jihong also gave a thumbs up as Li Quan, and a sincere smile hung on his face.

How long did the smile in Li Quan's eyes freeze for Dou Jihong, Li Quan didn't remember at all, and when he came back to his senses, the sky was already dark. (To be continued.) )
