Xu Meixian fought until the fifth day, and finally succeeded in starving herself to the point of dizziness, and she found that she didn't even have the strength to get up and go to the toilet. Mother didn't know what to do in the kitchen, and the slightest fragrance wafted in along the bedroom door, transforming into a small hand, gently scratching the most itchy part of her body, making her saliva flow and eager to go out and eat its three bowls of rice immediately. It's a pity that the most stubborn side of her character comes from her mother, the kind of character that never gives up until the goal is achieved, and she is extremely open-minded, so that she can't forgive herself for giving up halfway.

From the bedroom to the bathroom, just a dozen steps, it seems to exhaust the last remaining vitality in her body, she wants to call her mother to support herself, but her self-esteem does not allow it, she sits on the toilet like a dog sticking out her tongue and gasping for breath, where is the self who used to be so strong that she ran 800 meters without blushing and her heart beating? She suddenly discovered a fact that seemed entirely possible: if she continued to eat or drink like this, and her mother remained uncompromising, would she really starve to death?

She is only seventeen years old, she still wants to go to university, she still wants to fall in love, she still wants to find a good job, she wants to start a family, she wants to do many, many things, she really wants to live well. The desire to survive, the most basic human desire, finally overcame her stubbornness, and she cried and cried out to her mother and asked for food.

This time there was no winner in the confrontation between mother and daughter. Most of the reasons why Peng Yuanyuan won were because of Xu Chongzhi's inhumanity and her daughter's fear of death. In the final analysis, her daughter's hunger strike is not for herself, Xu Chongzhi can't control her if she doesn't go home, in addition to being sad and sad, desperate and sad, she can only support her stubbornness, whether her daughter wants to be or not, she really wants their mother and daughter to depend on each other in the future, she must be well, she still has a daughter to raise, as a mother, she has no reason to be weak.

In the dead of night, my daughter was already full and asleep. Because she had been hungry for too long, she ignored her daughter's coveted gaze on the food, and only gave her two bowls of gruel, letting her cushion her stomach first, and overeating was not beneficial to her daughter at this time. Peng Yuanyuan decided to wait a few days for her daughter's body to slow down and replenish some nutrients, and she must talk to her daughter well, dispel her daughter's worries, let her study hard ********, and she doesn't have to worry about adult affairs. No matter what happens in the future, she, as a mother, will never wronged her biological daughter.

Peng Yuanyuan leaned on the sofa, holding the remote control in her hand and constantly changing the table. In fact, she didn't really want to watch TV, but she couldn't sleep because there were so many things to worry about. Unexpectedly, she accidentally saw the revelation of the corpse recognition repeatedly broadcast by the local station, and two details made her hold her breath and widen her eyes: the male corpse was 1.76 meters tall, weighed about 150 pounds, and had two surgical scars of about 10 centimeters on the outside of his left thigh.

No, no, no, he, he's dead, right? For so many days, Xu Chongzhi's phone has been turned off, which is an incredible thing for him, because when Peng Yuanyuan called him before, he could get through every time, although it depends on the mood of the other party whether he can answer or not, but it is certain, because he needs to use the software in his mobile phone to check the dynamics of stocks in real time. Several times, before Peng Yuanyuan could say a word when she called the other party, Xu Chongzhi angrily asked her to hang up the phone quickly, saying that she was in the way of reading the securities transaction information. How could such a person who can't wait to put his face on the screen of his phone turn off his phone for so many days? If he died, it would make sense.

For more than 20 years of husband and wife relationship, it would be a lie to say that Peng Yuanyuan has no love for Xu Chongzhi, but these friendships have been slowly exhausted in Xu Chongzhi's intermittent demonization in the past two years. She is now full of resentment towards him, and every day when she goes to bed or just wakes up, she will subconsciously curse two sentences and wish he died outside. But what if he really died? Peng Yuanyuan has never thought about this problem, in her impression, the age of forty is still very young, there should still be a lot of years to squander, even if there is no fate to be a husband and wife again, the full of affection and honey is gradually replaced by hatred, saying cruel words in her mouth and hating him in her heart and wanting to die, but she still feels at ease because she knows that the person who has been tied to her for most of her life is still living well in this world.

The beautifully dressed host on TV kept saying something with his mouth open and closed, but Peng Yuanyuan didn't listen to a word, all she thought about was that Xu Chongzhi might be dead, and since it was a revelation of corpse recognition, it means that the corpse has been damaged to the extent that it is impossible to recognize the appearance.

She couldn't sit still any longer, picked herself up a little, and wanted to go out with her bag. Then she suddenly stopped, turned and went into her daughter's room, and pulled a few hairs on her daughter's head in the dark. The daughter slept soundly, only let out a slight murmur, turned over and quickly fell asleep, not knowing that the father she wanted to find was probably no longer alive at this time.

What does the road look like at twelve o'clock in the morning, Peng Yuanyuan has seen it for the first time when she is so old. She is a typical good girl, she has been doing things step by step all her life, living ignorant and ignorant in the small circle she drew for herself, not returning late, not entering the discotheque, not engaging in ambiguity, and also finding a man who also follows the rules, hoping that she will be smooth and smooth all her life, although it is dull and boring, but at least this life makes her feel very secure. But people are fickle, she thinks that ordinary is the real life, and in her husband's eyes, it is to spend her time in vain. Freezing three feet is not a day's cold, Peng Yuanyuan has also reflected on herself countless times because of her divorce from her husband, is Xu Chongzhi's change really just because of a simple class reunion, and after coming back, he is seriously psychologically unbalanced? No, that's just the last straw that pressed the camel, it was just the inevitable qualitative change reaction caused by the accumulation of quantitative changes to a certain stage, Xu Chongzhi had already shown his unwillingness and desire for money in life, and that class reunion was just the fuse that made him explode.

Only after knowing that there was something wrong with their marriage, he still foolishly deceived everyone, tried to maintain the illusion that everything was normal in the family, and even his own daughter did not support her when it came to the end, and used hunger strikes to hurt her own body to fight against her, her biological mother. I have to say that being a person and doing her part is also a failure.

The taxi driver was a little strange, why did this well-dressed woman run to the public security bureau in the middle of the night, that kind of yamen, when there is nothing to do, no one will easily make do with it. However, he also found that the female passenger behind him seemed to be in a bad mood, and had been crying silently, even if the fire of gossip in his heart was burning, and he had the intention of making a cameo as a confidant big brother, he really didn't want to disturb this sad woman.

The destination arrived quickly, and after being reminded by the driver, Peng Yuanyuan hurriedly threw down a 50 yuan, ignoring the words of the driver behind her who asked her to take change, and walked with difficulty towards the duty room at the gate of the Public Security Bureau. At this time, the public security bureau, except for a bright light in the duty room, was completely plunged into darkness.

She really couldn't force herself to sit at home until dawn, even if she knew that if she came in the evening, it would probably have to wait until dawn, but she would rather sit here than think nonsense at home.

She knocked on the door of the duty room quickly, and the indescribable sour smell of cigarettes mixed with instant noodles, smelly socks and other gases almost didn't smoke Peng Yuanyuan. She was extremely uncomfortable with such a messy and dirty environment, but when she thought of her intention, she had to frown and raise her feet into the house.

This sleepless night is destined to leave a deep imprint on Peng Yuanyuan's life, her self-righteous composure fell in the eyes of the police who had seen all kinds of people in front of her, and naturally her original form was revealed in minutes.

Finally got to work, Peng Yuanyuan trembled and took out the hair she had pulled off her daughter last night from her bag, and handed it to a small policeman next to her like holding a rare treasure.

Everyone only told her that the corpse was soaked in the water and was a little rotten, her face was not in good condition, and she couldn't recognize her facial features, hoping that she could be mentally prepared when she recognized the corpse, and the purpose of their arrangement for the corpse recognition was not mainly to see the face, but to let Peng Yuanyuan confirm with her own eyes at close range, whether the position of the two scars on the left thigh was completely consistent with Xu Chongzhi's, and after determining that the body surface features were highly consistent, they had to do a DNA test.

As a close relative, concern is chaotic, after the disappearance of the family naturally ill and rushed to the hospital, there may be a little bit of reluctance to let go, this floating corpse since it was salvaged up, issued a revelation to identify the corpse to the present, has come three groups of people, three groups of people did not see the corpse before they saw the corpse, they all insisted that this corpse was their relatives, all of them covered their faces and ran away after seeing the tragic state of the corpse, no matter what, they did not believe that the unrecognizable corpse would be their former relatives.

Peng Yuanyuan is the fourth and calmest one, and even took a sample that could be tested before coming. During the entire process of identifying the body, Peng Yuanyuan behaved very calmly, only when she saw a bloody face, there was a short scream, and then she returned to her previous indifference. finally spit out a sentence clearly: "The location of these two scars is not bad at all, he should be my ex-husband Xu Chongzhi." Because the time she had to look at the body was extremely short, less than a minute, the forensic doctor repeatedly confirmed whether she really saw clearly, and all she received was a positive answer, so she had to arrange for the forensic department to do a DNA test first.

It is also strange to say that before coming to the Public Security Bureau to know, Peng Yuanyuan was scared to death, she kept praying in her heart that this dead body was not Xu Chongzhi herself, but when everything was settled, she had no way to deceive herself anymore, but her heart that had been fluctuating suddenly calmed down. In the past two years, Xu Chongzhi, who has been unpredictable and difficult to find, will finally stop wandering around and have a fixed place to live from now on. She doesn't need to continue to suffer from gains and losses, repeatedly entangled between looking and not seeking, forgiving and not forgiving, and she doesn't have to worry that her daughter will pester her to find her father alive or dead.

Peng Yuanyuan suddenly discovered that maybe Xu Chongzhi's death was not entirely a bad thing, at least she was really liberated from all kinds of entanglements, and she could forget the past and reopen a new chapter in her life. She exhaled a soft breath and smiled at the little police officer who made the note for her.

The medical examiner's autopsy report came out on the third day. Lu Xiaohu and Zhen Shubin, members of the criminal police team who were in charge of investigating the case, couldn't believe their eyes when they saw the report, and repeatedly asked the forensic doctor Lao Wang if his judgment was wrong. Lao Wang blew his beard and glared: "You two little rabbit cubs still dare to question my decision, but I have repeatedly tested it several times before I came to such an appraisal conclusion, do you think I am willing to write like this?" But it is a fact, and I am obligated to meticulously record the most authentic autopsy results. ”

"But this—that's too sensational, isn't it?"

"What's sensational? Which murderer is not ruthless, if he is not ruthless, he will not be a murderer, hurry up and arrest someone, don't bother Lao Tzu here! ”

Lao Wang is an old forensic doctor in their Public Security Bureau, with more than 30 years of work experience, and he is about to retire, of course Lu Zhen and the others are not questioning his ability, but just the first time they have encountered such a cruel murderer in their lives since they became policemen, and they can't believe their eyes.

The autopsy results showed that Xu Chongzhi had an injury to the back of his head, which seemed to have been caused by a blunt instrument such as a club, and the autopsy showed that a hematoma had formed under the dura, but the hematoma was not enough to be fatal, and Xu Chongzhi's real cause of death was hypoxic asphyxia caused by drowning, which means that Xu Chongzhi was still alive when he was thrown into the water. The facial skin tissue on his face that had been carefully stripped away by a sharp weapon was the hands and feet of the murderer while he was still alive. As for why the deceased did not even have resistive scars on his body, and was cut off his face, such a painful and unbearable thing, the victim did not resist, which can only mean that he was unconscious at that time. This was confirmed by the large amount of alcohol and sleeping pills found in the stomach of the deceased by forensic doctors.

Being skinned alive is exactly the fact that Lu Zhen and the two criminal policemen feel a little unacceptable. What kind of grudge is it, and how strong the psychological quality of the murderer must be to be able to deal with such a poisonous hand against a person.

After waiting for another three days, the DNA identification report came out, confirming that the deceased was indeed Xu Chongzhi, and the two criminal policemen came to Peng Yuanyuan's home to learn about Xu Chongzhi's social relations. (To be continued.) )
