Chapter XVII: The Torn Record

Analyzing the two cases, the text information around Mr. Wenbo revealed the number "1", and the number displayed by the text message around Fang Zilun was "4", not only that, but the most critical clue is that Mr. Wenbo was born at one o'clock in the morning and died at one o'clock in the morning, and Fang Zilun was born at two o'clock in the morning and died at two o'clock in the morning.

Assuming the case is not over, could the next deceased be born at three o'clock and die at three o'clock? This is the speculation of Ling Yu and others. At the same time, there is another point, if there is really a dead person at the next three o'clock, will he leave a so-called implied numerical code around him?

【Chengguang City Public Security Bureau】

Back at the police station, everyone listed the clues that are currently more useful:

The number "1", the number "4", born at one point, died at one point, born at two points, died at two points.

Mr. Wenbo is old, and he has no relatives around him for a long time, and the only relative may be Shu Xiaoran, who he grew up watching. Coincidentally, Fang Zilun has no relatives, and the hope of all his work is this English training center. So, at present, it is almost impossible to get some information from their relatives.

Nor did they ask any useful clues from their colleagues.

【Weekend morning】

Because of the similarities in the two cases, the detective team decided to classify them as serial homicides, and it is uncertain if there will be another deceased. But so far, there are no useful conclusions other than some clues that have been obtained before.

Since Fang Zilun did not have any relatives before his death, his future affairs could only be handled by his friends, because after the autopsy, he had to go to the hospital to submit some relevant reports, and Shu Xiaoran happened to take advantage of this time to go to the hospital where Yan Fei worked in Chengguang City to see Yan Fei's father.

When I talked to Yan Fei on the phone last time, I mentioned that Yan Fei's father fainted and was hospitalized, and he always wanted to find a chance to go to the hospital to have a look, but at that time, it was just in time for the murder of Mr. Wenbo, and he had no time, and now there is another case of Fang Zilun, so Shu Xiaoran has always remembered this matter, but he really doesn't have so much time.

Shu Xiaoran bought a bouquet of flowers in the neighborhood of Chengguang City and drove directly to Changhong Hospital in the city center, and after submitting Fang Zilun's autopsy report, Shu Xiaoran walked to Yan Fei's father's ward.

It just so happened that Yan Fei was inside, Xiao Ran knocked on the door at the door, and Yan Fei, who heard the knock, turned his head to look at Shu Xiaoran:

"Xiao Ran? How did you come here? Because he hadn't greeted Yan Fei before coming to the hospital, Yan Fei couldn't help but be a little surprised when he saw Shu Xiaoran at the door.

"I came to the hospital to submit the autopsy report, go through some related procedures, and come to see my uncle by the way." Xiao Ran said and put the flowers and fruits she bought for Yan Fei's father on the table, she saw that Yan Fei's father was lying on the hospital bed now, and he hadn't woken up yet, but his face seemed to have improved a lot, he should have come out of the coma and was sleeping, Shu Xiaoran then asked Yan Fei: "How is it, uncle's body has been a lot better recently, right?" ”

After Shu Xiaoran finished speaking, he was expecting Yan Fei to bring an affirmative answer, but looking at Yan Fei, he had a sad expression:

"Alas, although he was out of the coma before, the old man was stubborn, and as soon as he woke up, he had to walk around on the ground, and accidentally fell again, but fortunately, the fall was not serious, but this fall took a long time to get out of bed." Yan Fei shook his head helplessly.

Shu Xiaoran didn't know how to comfort Yan Fei, it was indeed very uncomfortable, as a doctor, he had healed countless people, but now that he was here, he had no way to heal his father. When the old man reaches a certain age, it is normal for him to have some physical conditions, Yan Fei naturally does not know this truth, but even so, as a doctor, he will still have some self-blame.

While they were talking, Yan Fei's father woke up at this time, although he had slept for a lot of time before, but his current consciousness was quite awake. After Yan Fei saw his father wake up, he hurriedly stepped forward to help his father up and let him lean on the head of the bed.

After tidying up, Yan Fei's father squinted his eyes, and then glanced at the flowers and fruits next to his hospital bed, and he asked Yan Fei: "Yan Fei, who bought these flowers?" ”

Yan Fei glanced at his father, and then said to his father with a smile: "Dad, look who has come to see you!" ”

After listening to Yan Fei's words, Yan Fei's father found that next to his hospital bed, there was another person besides Yan Fei, who looked so familiar.

"Hello uncle!" Shu Xiaoran greeted Yan Fei's father.

"It's Xiao Ran!" After Shu Xiaoran said hello, Yan Fei's father suddenly remembered Shu Xiaoran, after all, she and Yan Fei were lovers in college, and it must be impossible to say that she didn't know Shu Xiaoran.

"Well, uncle, you are not in good health, you must pay attention to rest." Xiao Ran said to Yan Fei's father, who had just woken up, that Yan Fei mentioned that his father got out of bed as soon as he woke up, and Shu Xiaoran was afraid that he would do something again.

"Ha, an old bone, no younger than you." Yan Fei's father said with a smile.

"Uncle Naxing, seeing that your health is much better, you will be much more down-to-earth, I still have something to do at the police station to go back first, you always pay attention to your body." After speaking, Shu Xiaoran got up and was about to leave.

"I'll send you." Yan Fei also got up and followed Shu Xiaoran out of the ward.

When he arrived at the gate of the hospital, Shu Xiaoran was about to pick up the car, turned around and said to Yan Fei behind him: "Okay, Yan Fei, just send it here, go back quickly, uncle still needs to take care of it." ”

"Xiao Ran, actually, I..." Yan Fei seemed to have something else to say.

"Huh?" Xiao Ran was a little puzzled.

Yan Fei hesitated for a moment and said, "Actually, three years ago..."

Yan Fei hadn't finished speaking, Shu Xiaoran seemed to have guessed what Yan Fei wanted to say, and she hurriedly interjected: "Okay Yan Fei, let him go over the past, now we all have our own lives, don't we?" ”

"You're right, but..."

"Okay, it's time for me to go back, you go back and take care of your uncle." Xiao Ran didn't look at Yan Fei anymore, walked in the direction of his car, and went to drive back to the police station. In the same place, only Yan Fei was left, and the warm spring breeze hit Yan Fei's face, but this feeling was so stinging for himself, like a cold cold wind, hitting his face and hurting his heart. The bright morning was only dim in Yan Fei's eyes at this moment, and he dragged his tired body back to the hospital where he worked, until his figure disappeared into everyone's pupils.

After returning to the police station, a few days later, there was still no progress in the case of Mr. Wenbo and Fang Zilun, the four of them started their work in the office, Ling Yu was still trying to find out the connection between the numbers from the clues, and what the cross around the bodies of the two deceased meant, and the time of death of the two people was too weird, and it was the same as their own birth time.

"Boss, look at this." When Ling Yu was thinking, Chu Ming called Ling Yu, as if he had found some clues. After Ling Yu heard Chu Ming calling herself, she immediately rushed over and leaned over to see that Chu Ming had a few pictures on her computer.

"What is this?" Ling Yu asked.

Chu Ming replied: "This is the borrowing record of the relevant books in the Wen's Literature Hall before. ”

"What did you find?" Ling Yu then asked.

"Didn't you mention before that you lost an ancient book in the Wen's Literature Hall, you see that these photos of borrowing records were all taken in the Literature Hall at that time."

"Can you find out who borrowed the book?" Ling Yu had an intuition that the person who took the book must have something to do with this case.

"This should be impossible, although these photos have records of ancient books being borrowed before, but in the end, the borrowers have returned the books." Chu Ming replied.

"So the trail is broken?" Ling Yu looked at the photo on the computer.

"Not exactly!" Chu Ming replied to Ling Yu, and then continued, "Look at this photo. Everyone looked at Chu Ming and opened another photo, the content of which was the traces of this borrowing record being torn up.

"Look at this, one of this borrowing record has been torn up, and I think it must have recorded the relevant information of the person who stole the book, so as long as we find out who tore up this page now, then he is likely to be the one who stole the book, and after the book was stolen, the old gentleman was killed, it can't be such a coincidence, maybe we can find some clues related to this case!" Chu Ming said.

However, Shu Xiaoran didn't understand a little: "I have a question, if the torn page has information about the person who stole the book, then Grandpa Wen can't be impressed, how can he never find the information of the person who stole the book?" ”

Qin Jian replied: "First of all, there are too many people borrowing books in the Literature Hall, and the old gentleman Wenbo can't remember it so clearly, secondly, the old gentleman will not borrow it before the person who stole the book at the first time, and the most critical point is that the person who stole the book will not choose to tear up the record at the first time he steals the book, he must first borrow the book and return it, and then he is afraid that the book will be borrowed by others again, so he will steal the book before the next borrower, and then find a suitable time to tear up the record. People can't find their own heads. ”

"So at present, there must be something recorded in this ancient book, and the thief is also making a plan according to this book, because he is afraid that people who have read this book before will find out that he is implementing the plan, he does not dare to leave a borrowing record, nor does he dare to buy this book, so he can only choose to steal it, and the plan he is implementing should be related to the case of Mr. Wenbo and Fang Zilun that happened recently!" Ling Yu concluded!
