On October 2, 2017, it rained coldly all day, and in the evening, the rain did not stop, but it became heavier and heavier.

The rainy night on the west bank of the Luanhe River is even quieter, the usual depressed street can not see the shadow of the vehicle tonight, the yellowed street lamps shine on the water on the road, the water surface is covered with layers of dense blisters and reborn, the rain beats the leaves on the side of the road and makes a rattling sound, and the rainforest is blown down obliquely by the northwest wind.

At 9:20 p.m., a silver-gray golf sedan drove slowly from north to south, with the driver wearing a black top hat, a beige trench coat, and a pair of wide-rimmed glasses on the bridge of his nose. Because the left window was not closed tightly, the cold wind blew into the car through the gap, blowing down the collar of the windbreaker that was erected, revealing a two-inch-long scar on the left side of his face, this person is Ji Yu, the chief reporter of the "Luancheng Evening News".

The rain crackled against the window glass as if it was about to be shattered, and the vision was blurry despite the fog lights. Ji Yu took off his glasses and glanced at the waterlogged road surface, and looked towards the side of the road. He is highly short-sighted, and his eyes are even worse in this kind of windy and rainy weather, so he can only use a row of big trees on the side of the road as a reference. Suddenly a willow branch hit the front windshield, startled him, quickly stepped on the brakes to slow down the car, he looked at the gap in the passenger cab window, the rain was blown into the car from the gap, his right leg pants were wet, he subconsciously took out the mobile phone from the right trouser pocket and put it into the left trouser pocket.

Ji Yu braved the heavy rain tonight to drive alone to meet a person, two hours ago he made an appointment with this person at 10 o'clock in the evening at the city's largest health and leisure place "Kexin Steam House" to meet, as for why he chose such a place Ji Yu is also out of helplessness, because the person he wants to see will soak in the steam hall every night until midnight and refuse to go home, and there is something to ask him, this place is also suitable, because what he asked him to do is more secretive, for the sake of safety, he reluctantly agreed to meet him in the steam hall.

There is an abandoned railway bridge across the Luan River across both banks, and the shadow of the bridge is slowly left behind the car, indicating that there are less than three kilometers away from the destination, and suddenly there are willow branches swept on the window, Ji Yu hurriedly drove to order a car, his Golf is too old to have an automatic window lifter, and the window glass has to be lifted manually. Ji Yu leaned over and touched the lifting handle on the passenger door to shake the glass up, just when he shook the handle, he accidentally found that a human head seemed to poke out from behind a big tree on the side of the road, Ji Yu was startled and hurriedly rolled up the window, squinted behind the big tree, and the head poked out again, and was looking at him.

Ji Yu was terrified, he hurriedly stepped on the accelerator and planned to leave here quickly, but the car turned off, which intensified his state of fear, he hurriedly twisted the car keys while peeking out of the window, and somehow he also aimed at the river, he found that a yellow rose bloomed on the hazy water, and the rose rolled up and shattered the reflection of the tower on the opposite bank, and it turned into an auger into the deep water... At this moment, there was a "poof", and a vague face appeared on the front windshield. Ji Yu was so frightened that his soul was gone, as if a ghost shadow appeared in his eyes, and he stared at the blurred face on the front car cover, but that face disappeared again.

Could it be that it hit someone? Ji Yu seemed to feel that this situation would only occur if he hit someone, but when he thought about it, his car didn't start and had turned off, could it be that this person fell from the sky? Ji Yu was stunned, and boldly rolled down the window to look ahead, and found that there was a leg exposed under the bumper of the car. I'm thok! It's really striking.

Ji Yu got out of the car and rubbed forward in fear, there was really a person lying under the bumper of the car, and there was a bicycle not far away. Ji Yu had a cold breath on the back of his neck, he looked carefully, but the raincoat wrapped around the person's head couldn't see his face, looking at this scene, it seemed that his car hit a cyclist, and he thought about it wrong, this person was very likely to be a porcelain toucher. Ji Yu forced himself to calm down, he didn't touch the person lying on the ground, took out his mobile phone from his trouser pocket and was about to call the police, at this moment the person lying down suddenly grabbed his foot and neck, and then stretched out something like a flashlight from his raincoat and stabbed him in the lower abdomen accurately, a current pierced Ji Yu's body, and he trembled a few times before losing consciousness.

I don't know how long it took for Ji Yu to gradually regain consciousness, he felt a cold swish on his face, he moved his hands and feet to get up, but when he opened his eyes, he saw a face in front of him, this face was very familiar, and he was about to call his name, but he felt a cold swish on his neck, and then he was breathless and gradually unconscious.

At 1 o'clock in the middle of the night, a large truck from other places drove from south to north on the west bank of the Luan River, the driver saw a golf sedan parked in a puddle across the road, at first he thought it was an extramarital affair in the car to make good deeds, and thought obscenely: How big is this addiction, such a heavy rain is not afraid of being struck by lightning... But when the big truck passed by the golf, the driver suddenly found a person lying on the rainy ground, he immediately realized that something was wrong and stopped the car to take a closer look, when he confirmed that there was indeed a person lying on the ground, he was frightened, and hurriedly called the police.

At 1:30 a.m., three police cars flashed blue and white lights and drove to the crime scene on the south side of the Datieqiao on Luanhe West Road.

On the right side of the west bank of the Luanhe River, a gray hatchback golf sedan was parked, the door was open, and under the bumper lay a man in a beige trench coat, the deceased's face was pale and he stared at a pair of frightened eyes, a knife on his neck, the blood stains on the trench coat were diluted by the rain, and there was a black Gurney top hat beside the deceased.

Li Nuo commanded the detectives to surround the scene, forensic doctor Tang Wan began the autopsy, and not long after Zheng Guoqiang also arrived at the scene, several people lit up for her with flashlights.

Tang Wan said: The deceased was male, about 1.75 meters tall, the time of death was about 5 hours, that is, between 9 o'clock and 1 o'clock last night, there was an electric shock in the lower abdomen, and there was a knife wound on the neck, and he wiped a knife cleanly, fatal wound, not a fruit knife or the like, a special knife for the army, which can be confirmed from the knife edge, the deceased is about 30 to 35 years old, and there is no wallet or mobile phone or anything like that.

Zheng Guoqiang asked: Do you feel that it was a random murder or a premeditated murder?

Tang Wan said: Feeling? To say that I feel that the murderer is not a simple murderer, as if there is something else in it.

Zheng Guoqiang asked: Why do you say that?

Tang Wan replied: The murderer used something like an electric shock baton to stun the victim first, and did not kill him immediately, but only stabbed him in the neck after the victim woke up after a while, so there must be something else hidden here.

Zheng Guoqiang asked: How can you see it?

Tang Wan said: The victim died with a pair of frightened eyes, indicating that the victim was not killed immediately after being stunned, and if he was killed immediately after being stunned, the state of his eyes would not show a state of panic, because he was unconscious after being suddenly stunned, and his eyes showed a state of horror because he saw the murderer trying to kill him.

Zheng Guoqiang said: It makes sense, that is, the murderer didn't want to kill him in the first place?

Tang Wan said: My feeling is that the murderer may have wanted to rob him of something, but he didn't expect the victim to wake up halfway and see him, or recognize him, so he had to kill him, of course, it is also possible that the murderer is not alone.

Zheng Guoqiang said thoughtfully: It's interesting.

At this time, a black Audi car stopped outside the cordon, and Liang Hao, the captain of the "Security Brigade", got out of the car and hurriedly ran over.

Zheng Guoqiang asked: Why did he come over?

Li Nuo said: I informed him that they asked their "security brigade" to visit all the intersections at the north and south ends of Xi'an Road to investigate, and by the way, to check how many surveillance cameras there were.

Liang Hao asked with a puzzled face: Section Chief Zheng, Team Leader Li, why is this another murder?

Li Nuo said: I'm really sorry Brother Liang, I let you run in the middle of the night.

Liang Hao said: It's okay, I sent out all the brothers who live in the vicinity, about 30 of them, according to what you said, all the intersections along the way, as long as there are cameras in the store, they will write down, and they will bring the surveillance video in the morning before they open the door.

Zheng Guoqiang said: Team Liang's work is authentic.

Wang Ning approached and said: Team Liang is also here, Brother Zheng, there is only a pair of glasses in the car, and there is nothing else, a person's footprints, may be the deceased, there is water in the passenger cabin, the door buckle is empty, and now I am looking for fingerprints and other traces.

Tang Wan said: The same is true for the deceased.

Zheng Guoqiang said: That means the murderer took all the deceased's belongings, wallet and mobile phone?

Tang Wan said: It is very likely that this is the case.

Liang Hao asked: What did you mean when you said that the murderer was not ready to kill him?

Tang Wan said: There are two possibilities, the first murderer is very likely to just want to stun the victim and take something from him, and he didn't want to kill him at all, he didn't think that the victim suddenly woke up, and the murderer killed him for fear of being recognized by him, and there is also a possibility that two people committed the crime, the first one knocked the victim unconscious and robbed him, the second killed him, the two murderers may not know each other at all, and the murderer who wiped his neck came after the previous robber fled the scene.

Liang Hao said: Well, Tang Forensic Medicine's analysis is right, there is definitely such a possibility, anyway, I think so.

Li Nuo asked: Is there a secret hidden in the deceased?

Tang Wan said: Judging from the dress, the deceased was not a salaryman, at least a white-collar worker, and there was no evidence on his body, such as a wallet and mobile phone, even if he didn't bring a wallet and a mobile phone, he wouldn't forget it, the mobile phone was taken away by the murderer, and the murderer deliberately created the illusion of robbery? But I don't feel like robbery and murder.

Wang Ning approached again and said: There are car wheel prints on the side road on the west bank of the Luanhe River, like bicycles, and the car wheel prints are just turned out in front of the golf, which is one of them, and the second is that there are two brake marks 50 meters away after the golf, which are not very clear, the rain is too heavy and the erosion is very strong, whether it is related to this case is not clear, it is estimated that there are four or five hours in time.

Liang Hao said: This damn rain, by the way, let the technical staff of the Traffic Management Bureau come over?

Li Nuo said: They are here and have already completed the investigation of the scene.

As he was talking, he also arrived at the scene with a high-end car, and he walked to the circle with a flashlight in his hand and said: What are you doing with me?

Zheng Guoqiang said: You don't have a specific project, choose yourself.

Gao Gao took a flashlight and shone around for a while, and when he shone on the corpse, he suddenly said: I know this person.

Everyone turned their eyes to the high-end, and Li Nuo asked: High-end, don't talk nonsense, is it really a fake understanding?

High-end answer: Really, he is a reporter from our "Luancheng Evening News" called Ji Yu.

Those present were shocked to hear the name.

Tang Wan said: Oh, it's really, it's Ji Yu, a reporter from the evening newspaper.

Liang Hao asked: Reporter Jida?

Tang Wan said: Yes, that's right, it's him.

Liang Hao squatted down and carefully looked at the deceased's face for a while before standing up and said: It's him, I don't remember anything else, Ji Yu has a scar on his face I remember very clearly, hurry up and call the evening newspaper to ask them to come.

Li Nuo said: Is it too late?

Zheng Guoqiang said: It's too late, hurry up, I'm still afraid of being late, so contact me quickly.

Li Nuo dialed the hotline of "Luancheng Evening News", a lady answered the phone, when she heard that Ji Yu had a traffic accident, her voice trembled immediately, she asked: Ji Yu, is he still angry?

Li Nuo asked: Do you have Ji Yu's wife's phone?

The lady muttered for a while and said, "His wife doesn't have a phone."

Li Nuo asked a little surprised: There are still people who don't use the phone, I don't mean anything else, just ask his wife to come over and confirm...

The lady didn't wait for Li Nuo to finish speaking, and said urgently: I'll go, can you tell me the location of the accident quickly?

Li Nuo said: South of the railway bridge on the west bank of the Luanhe River, hurry up.

The lady said, "Well, I'll be there in ten minutes."

Li Nuo hung up the phone and wiped the rain on his face with his hand and said: I will be on duty for a while.

Sure enough, in less than ten minutes, a red M6 sedan arrived at the scene, and a middle-aged woman in a vest got out of the car, and she staggered over. Li Nuo greeted him and asked: You answered the phone just now?

The woman in the vest said: Yes, my name is Xu Na, and I am in the same department as Ji Yu.

Li Nuo took her to the corpse, Xu Na saw the corpse lying on the rainy ground with a pale face, covered her mouth with her hands and tears flowed, she said: It's him, what's going on with him?

Li Nuo said: We are investigating, and the specific death will not be determined until the survey is completed.

Xu Na asked: Was he killed?

Li Nuo said: This? It's still uncertain, Ms. Xu Na, do you know where Ji Yu went on such a rainy night?

Xu Na replied: How do I know? It's time for me to be on duty today, so I'll go home for dinner first, and he stays in the unit and says it's a little personal.

Li Nuo asked: Eh, do you know where Ji Yu's family lives?

Xu Na replied: The railway building, it seems to be Building 24.

Li Nuo asked: Who else is in his family?

Xu Na said: I have a wife, she is a fool, she can't even cook, what can a stupid sister-in-law do.

Li Nuo said: Thank you for your help, you go back first, we will look for you if there is something, Xu Na, can you take care of his wife first?

Xu Na said: Of course, I will. After speaking, she glanced at Ji Yu, who was lying on the rain, and reluctantly walked to the car, and then she turned back and said to Li Nuo: Can you cover him with something? He's a good guy.

Li Nuo replied: Okay, I'll do it right away.

Xu Na staggered into the red M6 car and drove away. Li Nuo told Tang Wan to cover the body with a list after the autopsy, and then said to Zheng Guoqiang: I will go to Ji Yu's house.

Zheng Guoqiang said: Okay, you have a hard trip, or let Team Liang go with you, there is a safe companion in the dark light.

Liang Hao said: Liang is willing to serve.
