Chapter 34: The Last Straw

The alcohol in the bar is very expensive, but Gou Shun has long been unconcerned, because he is already paralyzed, but he doesn't know whether this paralysis comes from the effect of alcohol or the cruel reality.

At night, it was already very deep, and there were few pedestrians on the road.

Xia Rushi's hand was on Gou Shun's shoulder, and Gou Shun supported her.

Gou Shun didn't know where Xia Rushi lived, let alone where he should go.

Xia Rushi was confused, kept scolding, and Gou Shun helped her to walk forward with difficulty, until she met a hotel.

Gou Shun put Xia Rushi on the bed, wanting her to rest for a while.

But Xia Rushi suddenly sat up, took off her coat, and threw it towards Gou Shun.

"Gou Shun, come here, hold me." Xia Rushi said with a smile.

Gou Shun looked at her and didn't move.

I saw that Xia Rushi was still smiling, laughing a little crazy and a little terrible.

"What's wrong? Can't? Am I not your class flower? Am I not the dream girl of all the boys in your class? Now that the lover of your dreams is in front of you, you are coming, you coward. ”

"You're right, I'm a coward." Gou Shun said in a low voice.

Xia Rushi ignored Gou Shun, but continued: "Don't pretend, aren't you men all birds?" Don't say you haven't thought about it, do you think I'm a rotten person, a piece of goods? I can't imagine that even the most despised person in the class will look down on me today, fate is really magical, hahahaha. ”

"I didn't."

"Come over if you don't have one, hold me."

Gou Shun didn't hug her, but picked up the kettle on the table, he wanted to give Xia Rushi hot water.

The water in the kettle was hot, and I saw Xia Rushi looking for something on the bed a little manic.

"What about smoke? Where's my cigarette? Xia Rushi became more and more anxious the more she searched.

"It must have been at the place where I was drinking, right?"

After hearing this, Xia Rushi put her two hands on her head and rubbed her hair, looking a little uneasy.

"I'll buy it for you."

Fortunately, there was one at the front desk, Gou Shun handed the cigarette to Xia Rushi, and after she lit it and smoked it, she calmed down.

The water boiled, and Gou Shun poured a glass and handed it to her.

However, Xia Rushi pushed the water glass away, hugged Gou Shun fiercely, and pulled him to the bed.

With great difficulty, he broke free of her arm, ran out of the hotel, and fled into the street.

A cool breeze blew, and he couldn't help but shiver, and the wine seemed to wake up a little.

Not knowing where to go, he continued walking, came to a park, and sat on a bench.

He watched the twilight fade, watched the sun show its head, watched the busy figures of the people, and watched the sun become a little dazzling.

There is no sleepiness, and there is no hunger.

Until he felt the harsh light being blocked, he looked up and saw a few precepts, who were also looking at him.

"That's right, it's him." After a precept was finished, Gou Shun was held down, and then he was escorted to the precept car.

He was taken to the detention center and sat in the interrogation room.

A man who looked like a leader walked in, didn't speak, and threw a few photos in front of Gou Shun.

Gou Shun's gaze fell on the top photo.

The photo shows a bed covered with white sheets, and a person is lying on the bed with a fruit knife stuck in her chest, blood flowing from her chest, staining the sheets next to her red.

Gou Shun felt that the man's clothes were a little familiar, and he moved his gaze to the face of the man in the photo.

"Ahh Gou Shun shouted and stood up, startling Qian Yan and Aunt Bai on the side.

"It's Xia Rushi, it's Xia Rushi, Xia Rushi is dead." Gou Shun said a little unwillingly.

I saw Qian Yan walk in front of Gou Shun and said, "Gou Shun, don't be excited, we all saw it." ”

"I killed her, I am." Gou Shun was still in shock.

Qian Yan shook her head and said, "It's not you, we saw it, when you left the hotel, she was still fine." ”

However, Gou Shun still said: "No, I killed her, she was okay when she didn't meet me, she died when she met me, An Ran became unfortunate when she met me, Xia Rushi lost her life when she met me, it must be my reason, I am an ominous person." ”

After hearing this, Qian Yan put her hand on Gou Shun's shoulder and said: "Gou Shun, we have all seen that you did not kill Xia Rushi, and Xia Rushi's situation was not caused by you, if you want to say harm, it was Zhao Chengxiang who harmed her." ”

"No, no, it's not, why did she die when she met me? Why did she die? Gou Shun's tone was very excited.

I saw Qian Yan think for a moment, and said faintly: "If my guess is correct, she should have committed suicide." ”

"Suicide? Why? How do you know? Gou Shun was a little puzzled.

Also puzzled are Aunt Bai and Lin Yao.

"Aunt Bai, has the brainwave imaging just now been saved?" Qian Yan looked at Aunt Bai and asked.

"Well, it's saved, what's wrong?" Aunt Bai didn't understand Qian Yan's intentions.

"Replay the last scene and freeze the picture on that picture." Qian Yan said.

After Aunt Bai performed some operations, the photo appeared on the display screen again, Gou Shun glanced at it, only to feel dizzy in his head, and quickly turned his head around.

"Enlarge the photo area." Qian Yan said again.

Aunt Bai listened to it and put the photo area to the maximum.

I saw Qian Yan walk to the display screen, point to the fruit knife in the photo, and say, "Do you see the blood stains on the handle of the knife?" ”

"See, it must have flowed down the blade of the knife when the murder was committed, right?" Aunt Bai replied.

I saw Qian Yan nodding her head and said: "Yes, it was left by the murderer, although this bloodstain is not clear, but after magnifying it, we can see that the bloodstain on the handle of the knife extends outward in a strip, but it stops at the outer end of the handle." ”

"yes, but what does that mean?" Aunt Bai was still a little puzzled.

"This shows that the palm on the handle of the knife cannot completely hold the handle, so when the blood flows down the blade to the handle, where the fingers are not holding, there will be blood flowing, but why does the blood stop before it flows to the end of the end."

"Maybe it just happened to flow there." Aunt Bai thought for a while and said.

I saw Qian Yan shook her head and said, "No, it can be seen from the blood stains on the sheets that Xia Rushi has shed a lot of blood, so where the blood stops, it is because something is blocking it." ”

"What's that?" Aunt Bai asked curiously.

"Index finger and thumb."

"Index finger and thumb?" Aunt Bai still doesn't understand.

"Yes, when one holds a strip, the index finger and thumb will go in opposite directions, then go around the object being held, and finally intersect. Lin Yao, go find a stick that is about as thick as the handle of a knife. ”

Lin Yao listened to this, and walked out a little reluctantly. After a while, bring in a stick.

The three of them shook it and found that what Qian Yan said was no problem, the index finger and thumb would indeed form a circle from two opposite directions.

"But what does that mean?" Lin Yao was obviously also confused.

After hearing this, Qian Yan stabbed Lin Yao with a stick and said, "See? When I stab you, the loops of my index finger and thumb will be at one end closer to the blade, not at the outer end. ”

Seeing that the two nodded, Qian Yan stabbed the stick at herself again and asked, "Look, if I stab myself like I stabbed Lin Yao just now, will it look a little awkward, because I can feel awkward myself." ”

Qian Yan said, changed the direction of her hand, let her thumb and index finger face outward to hold the knife, that is, away from the direction of her body, stabbed herself again, and asked, "Look, is this much easier." ”

Aunt Bai listened and nodded.

Gou Shun on the side obviously understood what Qian Yan said, and saw that he had some six gods and no master and said, "Why? Why did she kill herself? Must I have done something wrong? It must be my fault. ”

After hearing this, Qian Yan walked back to Gou Shun, looked into his eyes and said: "Gou Shun, I believe you have also seen it, Xia Rushi was injured too deeply, she needs to use cigarettes and alcohol every day to numb herself and deceive herself, I think it may be that she feels too tired to live." ”

"No, you lied to me, it's not like this, if she is tired, why can't she think about it after seeing me, is it because I'm gone?" Gou Shun's voice began to get excited.

After hearing this, Qian Yan sighed helplessly and said: "I don't know what will happen to her if you don't leave, but the culprit of this result is definitely not you, maybe it's because meeting you reminds her of sad things, maybe it's because she feels that the most humble classmates in the class don't look down on her, maybe it's because she wants to get a little last comfort from you but doesn't get it, or maybe because she can't see hope and doesn't want to hold on anymore, but I can see from the imaging that she is about to fall, Maybe it's the last straw. ”

"So I'm the last straw, so I killed her." Gou Shun said, holding his hands on his head, his head hurting a little.

"No, it's not you, it's Zhao Chengxiang, even without you, there will be other straws, because she can't hold on."

Gou Shun listened, did not speak, he was weak on the sofa, still holding his head, his fingers in his hair.

After the room was quiet for a while, I only heard Aunt Bai say softly: "Could it be that Shunzi stopped Zhao Chengxiang and held Xia Rushi hostage has something to do with this?" ”

"But Gou Shun hadn't had this dream at that time?" Qian Yan asked.

"Yes, maybe because this matter is too important, although he hasn't dreamed of it yet, he has subconsciously given an order to save Xia Rushi, which is the voice in Junzi's head." Aunt Bai said while thinking.

"Aunt Bai, is there any basis for this inference you said?" Qian Yan asked.

I saw Aunt Bai shake her head and said, "No, until you find out what Gou Shun's dream is, everything is just an inference, but I think if this inference is true, it can explain Gou Shun's behavior before coming to the research center." ”

I saw Qian Yan think for a moment and said: "Aunt Bai, if what you said about the subconscious statement is true, then it means that Gou Shun did those things to avoid Xia Rushi being killed by Zhao Chengxiang, does that mean that Gou Shun's dream indicates what may happen in the future, and it is precisely because of this that the orders he subconsciously transmitted will make him change." ”

"Well, it can be analyzed according to this line of thought, because Gou Shun knew that Xia Rushi and Zhao Chengxiang would not have a good result together, so he went to stop Zhao Chengxiang first, and when he saw that he couldn't stop it, he held Xia Rushi hostage." Aunt Bai connected the previous events.

After hearing this, Gou Shun raised his head and said in a pleading tone: "But I didn't stop Zhao Chengxiang, can you do me a favor?" ”

"What's the busy?" Qian Yan seemed to have guessed something.

"Whether your inference is right or not, tell Xia Rushi and let her leave Zhao Chengxiang, the farther away the better." For some reason, in Gou Shun's heart, this inference has been acquiesced.

I saw Qian Yan think for a moment and said: "Gou Shun, love is someone else's freedom, even though we belong to the Iron and Blood Brigade, we have no right to interfere, and she won't believe it if we say this, not to mention that we haven't figured out what this is all about now." ”

"I'm afraid it'll be too late to figure it out, I beg you." Gou Shun looked a little anxious.

I saw Qian Yan sigh and say, "Okay, then I'll try." ”
