Chapter 6: The Scapegoat
Qiao Yixia subconsciously felt that every word Lu Xifei said must have her purpose, but she didn't have time to think about the other meaning of the words before she reached her destination. Qiao Yixia glanced back at Lu Xiyu, her eyes were level at the whole square, there was no self in her eyes at all, she sat straight and solemnly in her seat, and she didn't seem to have the slightest idea of getting out of the car by herself. Qiao Yixia took a deep breath, suppressed the resentment in her heart, and went down the door to open the car door for Lu Xiyu.
Except for Shi Wei and Qiao Yixia, no one else in the bureau had ever seen Lu Xifei, but as soon as this woman appeared, she had a cold and noble aura, which made people feel inexplicably awe-inspiring when they saw her.
"Professor Lu." Shi Wei, who was originally scolding, softened his face after seeing Lu Xiyu, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
Hearing Shi Wei call the woman Professor Lu, the most excited was Shang Lu, that pair of eyes were so surprised that they almost fell out, and he said to Bai Ying next to him: "Quick, Bai Ying, pinch me, let me make sure I'm not dreaming!" ”
Bai Ying directly kicked his calf and bent it, making him scream in pain. When the people in the eight groups saw Lu Xifei's appearance, different expressions crossed their faces, some were surprised, some admired, and some were indifferent. Qiao Yixia followed behind Lu Xifei, Lu Xifei walked straight to Shi Wei's side, she didn't like to laugh, but nodded at Shi Wei out of politeness, and said: "Huaihai Park yesterday afternoon from three o'clock to three o'clock fifteen, a yellow long-haired woman wearing a black hat, slightly fat, wearing a mask, wrapped in a red and green striped scarf, cotton boots are very dirty. Then he took out a piece of paper from the file bag and handed it to Shi Wei.
Shi Wei fixed his eyes and saw that it was a portrait, and its physical characteristics were the same as what Lu Xifei said. Shi Wei quickly understood what Lu Xifei meant, and said to Shang Lu, who was staring at Lu Xifei: "Immediately call up the video of Huaihai Park at about three o'clock yesterday afternoon, what are you stunned!" ”
Shang Lu came back to his senses at this time, and came to the table with Bai Ying to tune up the video, and Shi Wei immediately walked over. Seeing this, Qiao Yixia asked, "Isn't it three o'clock to three o'clock twenty-five?" ”
"I thought there might be a deviation, so I gave a time slot, but on the way here, I think it could be shortened by ten minutes."
"That's her! That's her! Shi Wei raised the decibel of his voice, turned his face and shouted at Lu Xifei.
Luci walked over and looked at the woman on the screen. She wrapped herself tightly, the brim of her hat was pulled low, and her mask was so large that almost only a pair of eyes were exposed. The woman was holding a black plastic bag in her hand, her right hand was visibly trembling, and she didn't immediately throw the bag in after walking to the trash can, but looked up and around for a while, and finally fixed her eyes on the surveillance.
"It's her, it must be her!" Shi Wei slapped Shang Lu's head hard and said, "You and Bai Ying, what do you both see when you look at the surveillance, such a suspicious person hasn't found out!" ”
Qiao Yixia and Lu Xifei didn't speak, Shi Wei sighed, and said thoughtfully: "I really didn't expect that a woman could do such a heartbreaking thing." ”
"It's just a scapegoat." Lucy's eyelashes trembled slightly, and her eyes focused on the woman who was throwing garbage into the trash can, her eyes dark.
Shang Lu paused, and the three of them turned back to look at Lu Xiyu in unison. Lu Xifei didn't speak, her eyes were still staring at the screen, and she had a feeling of staying out of the matter, but Qiao Yixia said firmly in a clear voice: "There is no fluttering in her eyes, no fear, but a desire to cover up." She is not looking for surveillance to avoid surveillance, but so that we can find the emptiness she deliberately created when we look at the surveillance in the future. ”
Shi Wei nodded, and Shang Lu also nodded, but Bai Ying looked like she had already thought about this problem. Shang Lu looked at Lu Xifei intently, and asked a little embarrassedly, "Professor Lu, but, how did you find out about this abnormal woman?" Have you investigated the case before that? ”
"Yesterday afternoon, I was in Huaihai Park." Without waiting for the rest of the people to question, Lu Xifei took out another piece of paper from the file bag, the words on the paper were different from the graceful and gentle of ordinary women, but full of vigor, and it looked very majestic. Shang Lu took it and held it in his hand, Shi Wei and Bai Ying leaned their heads over, only to hear Lu Xifei continue, "The first time, the garbage can of Splendid Plaza, the second time, the garbage can of Riverside Park, the third time, the trash can under the bridge of Xinxi Bridge, and the fourth time, the garbage can of the garden of Yuemao Community." Seventh, Huaihai Park trash can. Discover which one is the earliest and easiest. ”
"It's the third time." Bai Ying said.
"So the killer changed his strategy and returned to the park so that it could buy him more time." The person who answered was not Lu Xifei, but Qiao Yixia, after finishing speaking, she glanced at Lu Xifei, her expression was still calm, presumably what she said was exactly the same as what she thought.
Lu Xifei stopped talking, and there was a sense that Qiao Yixia continued to analyze, and Qiao Yixia continued: "But there are only a few gardens and squares in our C city, and the murderer went to Jinxiu and the riverside, but he didn't go to Jinyang Square, the most famous city in C city, and it is obvious that the murderer is picking a park with less traffic. Excluding the first few small parks one by one, only Huaihai and Luzhou remain. ”
"So, why did you choose Huaihai instead of Green Boat?" Shang Lu asked.
"Because of the distance." Qiao Yixia frowned slightly, pointed to the brief location map drawn by Lu Xihua on the paper and said, "You see, these parks and squares are not close to each other, and Luzhou is in the middle of the garden of Fairview Square and Yuemao Community, which is very close to them. Very easy to arouse suspicion. ”
Shi Wei nodded thoughtfully: "Even if all of this makes sense, how did Professor Lu know that this woman would throw her body yesterday afternoon?" ”
"There's just some household waste in the plastic bag."
"What?" Shi Wei raised his voice again, obviously a little skeptical, "In that case, what is the matter with the calf we found yesterday?" Who did it? Does he have invisibility? ”
This time, Qiao Yixia didn't speak, and a layer of mist seemed to rise above her beautiful face. Beneath the cold exterior is an unpredictable heart. Only then did Lu Xifei finally speak again: "It's not that he has invisibility, but he hasn't appeared at all." ”
Hearing what Lu Xifei said, the office was surprisingly quiet, and some of the other people who were originally printing materials or discussing also stopped their voices and looked at Lu Xifei in unison. Shi Wei's brows furrowed deeper and deeper. Lucie's beautiful eyes were like moonlight gems that had been precipitated for thousands of years, exuding a soul-seducing light, and he slowly said: "In the third part, I wrote down the time when I made a new discovery. It can be found that the time interval between the murderer's throwing the body has become significantly shorter. There was a day between the first two times, and there was no next day, and the fifth and sixth times were found on the same day. It's too late for him. ”
"Yesterday was the eighth day, and the last time he threw his body was on the sixth day, since he didn't have enough time, why did he have to wait another day in between?" Bai Ying asked.
Everyone waited for Lu Xifei to answer, but she didn't speak again, but glanced at Qiao Yixia beside her, Qiao Yixia received the signal, cleared her throat and said: "This is the murderer's trick, deliberately sending us the wrong message, when we all thought he was about to jump over the wall in a hurry, he calmed down, leaving us confused." This is why Professor Lu appeared in Huaihai Park yesterday, because she has insight into the fickle heart of the murderer. ”
"But in that case, who threw that bag of things!" Shi Wei looked a little anxious, scratching his head in annoyance, he hadn't had a good night's sleep for a few days for this case.
"He's smart and definitely won't choose to show up again at this moment." Lu Xifei's eyes were unfazed, and those glowing eyes seemed to tell endless stories, "Officer Joe, if you are a murderer, you have to destroy what you have in your hand, but you can't directly transfer it to the scapegoat, let alone appear under surveillance again, what will you do." ”
Qiao Yixia bit her lower lip, and all the people in the group focused their eyes on her, waiting for her answer.
"Let someone else do it for me, stranger." Then she looked at Lu Xifei, she tried to find the answer from Lu Xifei's face, but somehow, she somehow hoped to be affirmed by Lu Xifei.
"In this way, the murderer did not personally dispose of the body this time." Bai Ying's face crossed a look that couldn't tell whether it was loneliness or frustration, "Professor Lu, if it were you, what would you do?" ”
Lu Xifei didn't answer immediately, but tilted his head, adding a bit of approachability under the cold glamor: "Occasionally do it yourself, and occasionally let others do it for me." ”
If you ask someone else to take out the garbage for you every time, it seems to be the safest method, but there is a bit of risk hidden in the insurance, and it is easy to expose it if it is investigated in the future. The best way to do this is to throw it yourself a few times and ask someone else to help you throw it a few times. As Lucifer said, this murderer must be a thoughtful person who thinks things almost perfectly. He chose to throw the corpse in different places, and sometimes he threw it himself, and sometimes asked the people who were going to go in to play at the gate of the park to help him throw it, and ordinary people would not refuse.
Shi Wei sighed deeply: "He hid himself so well, we want to find him, it's just a needle in a haystack." Professor Lu, yesterday, our high bureau just set a deadline for me, half a month, can it be done? ”
"Captain Shi, I think you probably misunderstood."
"Misunderstanding? What does Professor Lu mean? ”
Lu Xifei didn't seem to want to say more, grabbed the corner of Qiao Yixia's clothes and wanted to drag her out: "At most, three days, I will get the evidence." ”
Ignoring the shouts of Shi Wei and the others behind him, the two of them left together. Qiao Yixia was pinched by Lu Xi's clothes, and after walking outside, there was a biting cold wind blowing in his face, and the deviation between indoor and outdoor was too large, giving people a very strong sensory stimulation. Lucy was waiting for her to open the door for herself, but instead of opening the door for her, she asked, "Professor Lu, do you already know who the real murderer is?" ”
"Officer Joe, don't forget the jì bet."
"Now that you know, why don't you say it? Do you know that one more second of delay will put one more person in crisis. Qiao Yixia didn't understand what Lu Xifei's intention was to play such a trick, since she had already locked the target, why did she want to sell Guanzi, didn't she know that human life was at stake.
Lucie's eyes drooped slightly, and he couldn't see the waves on his love: "He won't kill anymore." ”
Qiao Yixia thought about the meaning of her words, and didn't know how to answer, so the two of them stood tall in front of the car.
"Joe, it's cold outside."
