Huang Shan exhaled deeply: "These days, I have also been thinking about this question, if the murderer is just a perverted strong human being, then no matter how perverted he is, how strong he is, the characteristics of human beings, he should always have, right?" Like fingerprints, footprints, blood?

He kills the victim, even if he is clever and can defeat every time, but even if the victim can't beat him, someone should always be able to scratch his skin or clothes, right? Why is it that every time we check the nails of the deceased, we can't find the killer's dandruff DNA, clothing fiber tissue, not to mention blood stains and hair!

Regardless of whether the murderer is a human or a demon, there is one more thing that I can't figure out the most: the murderer has committed many crimes in the university, but why, when we see only the body of the victim, there is not even a single witness who saw the murderer's crime? If you don't see a crime, it's the murderer's luck, but you haven't been seen dozens of times, the murderer's luck is too good, right?

You know, people are intelligent creatures, and when they are attacked, the victim will definitely shout for help, and the university campus is not a barren deep mountain and wild forest, so no one can hear the cry for help, as long as the victim shouts for help, there will always be people passing by so many students around to see what is going on, or will call the police - but for so long, we have visited many students in the neighborhood, and at the time of the crime, no one heard the cry for help! ”

He stared at Xu Yan with blazing eyes: "Major Xu, you say, what is the reason for this?" ”

Xu Yan frowned and pondered for a moment, and then he said: "I want to think about it, there are nothing more than two possibilities: one is that the murderer's luck is really so good, that is, no one sees him and no one hears him; Second, the murderer had some kind of special modus operandi. It was so fast that it was able to kill the victim before he had time to call for help, and the others didn't have time to witness it. ”

Huang Shan slapped his face: "It makes sense!" Brother, you want to go with me!

But there is another thing that I can't figure out: some disappearances, according to common sense. That's simply not possible! Just like the disappearance case of our five police officers, five strong men, where did the murderer hide them? ”

"Getting them out of school?"

"Impossible! We have checked, and there are security guards and our police on duty at the front and back doors of the school that night, three people in a shift, and cameras to monitor the entry and exit of the front and back doors. For twelve hours between eight o'clock that night and eight o'clock the next morning, no one carried large items out! Moreover, we have also verified all the vehicles that left the school within 12 hours. They are all people with legitimate status, and they have a legitimate reason for going in and out of the school, and there is no motive for them to kidnap our police officers - and more importantly, they do not have the ability to do so.

Similarly, on the night Zhang Jingwan was killed, two of her roommates in the same dormitory also disappeared. We also checked the surveillance footage of that night, and asked the security guard on duty, and there was no one out of the school that night - if someone was carrying two girls and trying to leave the school gate. Even if he can escape the surveillance of the security guards, he will not be able to escape the surveillance of the cameras. ”

Xu Yan stared at Huangshan. He said cautiously: "If the murderers are not human, perhaps, those who are missing...... Already eaten on the spot? ”

Huang Shan's face was gloomy, he didn't refute Xu Yan, but just whispered: "I have already consulted a zoologist in private. A beast that can eat an adult beast would be very large, not to mention that it could swallow five living people alive in one night, without even a bit of flesh and blood - such a monster. Even if there is a zài, the size will be very large, like a whale.

Such a monster, in the campus of Shudu University, there is no space for it to hide, it can't hide at all!

A monster that can satisfy this ability to commit crimes, there is no zài in the world!

Moreover, why is the murderer so persistent that he has to commit crimes on or around the campus of Shudu University? He has committed crimes many times, he should know that Shudu University has become a key area of great concern to our police, and the risk of continuing to commit crimes here is very great, why does he refuse to change the location of the crime? Does the location of Shudu University have any special significance? ”

Xu Yan nodded silently: He also discovered that this case is very different from the ordinary case of F-virus mania, and even the previous case of the Tokyo Vampire is very different, and there are many abnormalities.

This means that what he is likely to face is a completely unknown monster species with strange abilities, thinking of this, Xu Yan is slightly nervous, and a little regretful: It's a pity, Xuan Yun is no longer there! If she's still around, with so many clues, maybe she'll be able to point out what kind of monster it is, right?

After introducing the case, Huang Shan said to Xu Yan: "Brother Yan, our Director Deng - you met him last time, he is going to Shudu University to listen to the progress report of the task force, are you interested in participating together, so as to have a deeper understanding of the case?" ”

"Well, I'm going to a task force meeting, is that okay?" Xu Yan smiled and said: "I'm not from your public security system, if it's not good, your Director Deng will drive me away." ”

Huang Shan scoffed: "There is a bird problem!" It's not that Boss Deng doesn't know you, he should be happy to know that you can come to help! If he dares to drive you away, Lao Tzu doesn't need him to drive you away, and he will leave by himself! If he has the ability, he will catch the murderer himself! ”

Huang Shan said very arrogantly, but in fact, he was still very cautious, he parked the car on the side of the road, and immediately called Director Deng: "Director Deng, hello! I'm Lao Huang! Director Deng, I have good news for you, in order to help us solve the case, I finally invited a master to help...... As I reported to you last time, the Ministry of Intelligence has a special task force to deal with this strange thing...... No, no, how can I know the people of the General Staff, but last time, the last time the incident of China Eastern Airlines, the time when the F virus case suddenly broke out on the plane, and the Major Xu who solved the madman on the plane...... Yes, yes, that's him! It just so happened that I met Major Xu today, and it took a lot of effort, and Major Xu saw our sincerity and agreed to come over to help us...... Right, right. Major Xu is very powerful, he is an expert in dealing with those special events, he has a lot of experience, and his level in this area is very powerful...... Yes? Formalities? No, no, it is too troublesome to go through the guò organization procedures to hire people. We're running out of time. Major Xu is now coming to assist us in his personal capacity, as if he were our hired adviser...... Yes, he only participated in his personal capacity, helping us with ideas, because he was an active soldier...... Yes, that's the case...... Yes, Major Xu is with me now—ah, okay. ”

Huang Shan hung up the phone. He smiled at Xu Yan: "Director Deng is very happy that you can come to help us, he asked me to welcome you, let me greet you well-let's go to the task force first." ”

So, Huangshan drove Xu Yan in a car, walked on the road for more than an hour, and returned to the campus of Shudu University. At the entrance of the school, the car was stopped by the school's security guard, and a large security guard peeked at it. He asked, "Does this one have a pass from our school?" Please show it for the inconvenience. ”

Huang Shan hasn't answered yet. Two young men dressed as security guards came out of the guard room, but they pulled the previous school security guard to the side, and then, the two young men smiled at Huang Shan: "Huang Tou'er, you are here!" ”

"Hey, Zhang. Xiao Cheng, are you on duty today? Is Boss Deng here? ”

"The owner's car has been in for a few minutes. Boss, you're going to be late for today's meeting. ”

Huang Shan "haha" smiled: "What's the matter!" Anyway, they can't do anything in the meeting. It's the same whether you open it or not! I'm leaving! ”

Then, he said hello, started the car and drove in.

Xu Yan was a little surprised: "Huang Zhi, you are even familiar with the security guards of our school?" You're too good, aren't you? ”

Huang Shan smiled: "Where!" This is the special police officer sent by the special police detachment to guard the front and back doors of your school, and the duty room is guarded by people from the special police detachment, three people per shift during the day and six people per shift at night. To avoid attracting attention, they didn't wear police uniforms, but they did have real guys on them. ”

Xu Yan suddenly, he glanced back and saw the two young men in security uniforms swinging leisurely with batons, looking no different from ordinary security guards. If it weren't for Huang Shan taking the initiative to sue him, who would have seen that these two very ordinary security guards were actually elite special police officers pretending to be?

For some reason, Xu Yan felt an inexplicable feeling in his heart: there are many things in our lives—a peaceful life, a stable social order, an adequate supply of water and electricity, no worries about famine or starvation, and an adequate supply of materials and commodities—these things seem so ordinary that we have even become accustomed to their existence, thinking that this is a matter of course and that we are born like this.

But in this world, there is nothing beautiful that is easy to come by, and there is no need to pay a price.

When we don't know it, there are always people who silently guard our peace and pay for those beings in our lives who think they are right. Without the labor and maintenance of hundreds and thousands of people, we would not have even drunk a drop of tap water and not a single light bulb lit.

Looking at the familiar school road and the energetic male and female students outside the window, at this moment, these people and scenery that have been commonplace in the past have a different feeling in Xu Yan's eyes.

In this school, there are girls I like, my close classmates, my dear friends, and my respected teachers...... Now, it's my responsibility to protect them from those demon monsters and not to be killed by those monsters, and only I can do it.

A happy life needs to be cherished, and it needs a strong force to protect it!

At this moment, Xu Yan spontaneously had a very full and sacred feeling, feeling that the responsibility on his shoulders was heavy, he felt that his spirit suddenly lifted, and his whole body was full of positive energy - perhaps, this is the legendary sense of mission, right?

The car drove all the way to a small, independent building on the school's west campus, where the school's security office was located. Although Xu Yan is a student of Shudu University, he has never entered the security building, but although Huangshan is an outsider, he seems to be very familiar with this place, so he led Xu Yan in, went straight to the second floor, and pushed open the door of a conference room.

As soon as the door was pushed open, a puff of white smoke floated out, and the heavy smell of smoky tobacco made Xu Yanzhi frown—this room was like a real room of biochemical poison gas.

Following behind Huang Shan, Xu Yan walked in and glanced at it: in the middle of the room, there was a long conference table. Now, the conference table is surrounded by people, all middle-aged people with stern expressions, some in civilian clothes and some in police uniforms, depending on their temperament, clothing and demeanor. These should be leaders with a certain identity.

Outside the conference table, there were scattered tables and chairs against the wall, on which office equipment such as computers and printers were placed, and it was also full of people, all of them tired-looking men. The heavy smell of smoke and the sour smell of men's sweat lingered in the air, and all the men in the room looked tired and stern.

At this time, someone at the conference table was talking, but it felt that everyone was not listening very carefully, and there was a "buzzing" low discussion in the room.

A young man with an unfamiliar face like Xu Yan walked in. Everyone looked at each other in surprise, and the people sitting close to each other were still asking each other: "Who is that young man who came in with Huangshan?" Why haven't you seen it before? ”

"So young, it's a new police officer from the Criminal Branch, right? Or an intern? ”

"Why did Huangshan bring an intern to a meeting?"

Feeling the surprised gazes from all directions, Xu Yan was calm, he saw an empty plastic chair by the door, so he walked over and sat down there. After sitting down, Xu Yan saw Deng Bonan, director of the Jincheng Public Security Bureau, sitting at the conference table.

Compared with the last meeting, Director Deng looked much haggard. There are also a lot more gray hairs on the head. When Xu Yan looked at him, he was also looking at Xu Yan. The two looked at each other, Director Deng bowed slightly, and showed a kind smile at Xu Yan.

The people who can enter this room are all leaders and business elites within the Jincheng Public Security Bureau and the Security Bureau, and Director Deng's every move is naturally concerned by everyone in the conference room, and he is seen to specially greet a new police officer. Suddenly, everyone was impressed with Xu Yan - no one knew what this guy was about, but since he was brought in by Huangshan and was specially greeted by Director Deng, then naturally no one dared to regard him as an ordinary intern anymore - even if this person was really an intern. Then he must also be a very talented intern.

The arrival of Huang Shan and Xu Yan did not interrupt the meeting, at the conference table, the middle-aged man in a dark suit was still speaking, and when Xu Yan sat down, he happened to hear him say: "...... In addition, in order to prevent the recurrence of the case, we have cooperated with Shudu University to install micro-shooting cameras in 150 remote areas that are prone to crimes, in addition, our task force has also arranged for plainclothes to conduct regular and irregular inspections on campus, especially in the late night of the previous cases until the next day. Arrange for our special police and Shudu University security guards to form a mixed team to conduct on-campus patrols to prevent the recurrence of vicious crimes...... In previous inspections, more than 800 police personnel were dispatched......"

The middle-aged man in the dark suit looked down at the manuscript and read a lot, there were many counts in it, and there were also many examples, but Xu Yan always felt that the middle-aged man in the dark suit lowered his head when he read the manuscript, and he didn't look at anyone, as if he was empty-hearted, as if he was avoiding everyone's gaze - uh, maybe it was Xu Yan's illusion, but he just felt that the man seemed to be absent-minded.

Finally waited for the man - after the fact, Xu Yan learned that the middle-aged man was the head of the task force, Deputy Director Cao of the Municipal Bureau in charge of criminal investigation - he finished reading the manuscript in his hand and coughed dryly: "...... The above is the work of the task force in the past week. My report is over, now, I would like to ask Director Deng for instructions! ”

No one applauded, only the sound of stools and chairs rattling, everyone in the conference room sat up straight, and some people took out papers and notebooks to make a careful record. But Deng Bonan waved his hand: "I don't need to record it, I don't need to remember my words - just now, I listened to the report made by Deputy Cao, and I feel that the attitude of the comrades is still very serious for a while, and a lot of work has been done, and the comrades are very behalf of the party group of the Municipal Bureau, I would like to express my condolences and thanks to everyone!"

However, we must also be aware of the fact that although we have done a great deal of work and our comrades have worked very hard, in fact, the progress of the special case group's investigation and handling of the case is still very slow or even no progress at all! Everyone's workload is very large, but there is not much effective work, a lot of time and energy is spent on mass visits and touching, and there are not many valuable clues obtained!

Of course, mass visits and clue finding are also our commonly used investigative methods, and sometimes they can also play a certain role in the detection of cases. But this time, my personal feeling is that this kind of conventional investigation method may not have a great effect on the detection of the case, and the comrades are probably also aware that this is not an ordinary murder case, and our opponent is not an ordinary murderer, we need to go beyond the conventional creative thinking to consider this case!

We should use our brains and think more, because an accurate way of thinking can make us do a lot less wrongful work. If you have the right idea, you will not be far from solving the case; If you don't think the right way, no matter how much effort you put into it, I'm afraid it's just -- uh, I can't say it's useless, but I'm afraid it's half the effort.

Comrades, you must know that we have not much time to waste, and there are less than 11 days left before the deadline for solving the case proposed by the leaders of the provincial party committee!

I tell you the truth, in front of the leaders of the provincial party committee and the municipal party committee, I, Deng Bonan, have made a military order, and if the case cannot be solved within the specified time limit, I will automatically take the blame and resign without the need for the superior leaders to remove me! When the time comes, I'm sure I'll be gone, but I don't think you'll be much better! Deputy Cao, you also went to the municipal party committee to attend the meeting yesterday, what did Secretary Huang say at that time? ”

The middle-aged man who had just been reading the manuscript coughed expressionlessly: "Secretary Huang said that this case is a big test for our Jincheng public security team. If the Jincheng City Public Security Bureau fails to crack the case within the specified time limit, this will show that the combat effectiveness of our Jincheng City Public Security Bureau is problematic, and this is not a public security force that our party and people can rely on! At this time, it is very necessary to rectify the entire Jincheng public security system, carry out a large-scale adjustment, all the middle-level cadres of the Jincheng City Bureau must be re-evaluated and replaced, and they must recruit talented people and compete for posts -- this is Secretary Huang's original words, at that time, Secretary Zhao of the Political and Legal Committee, Deputy Secretary Li of the Municipal Party Committee, and our Director Deng were all present, and Secretary Huang spoke very seriously, and his expression was also very strict -- this time, if we can't solve the case, the city is estimated to be serious!
