Chapter 55: Too deep into the play
The next morning, in the special care unit of the People's Hospital in R City, a young man with a pale face had just woken up from a coma. The effect of the painkillers had passed, and he felt a pain all over his body, as if all the bones and muscles in his body had been broken to pieces.
For a moment, he was a little confused, and he couldn't figure out where he was. He remembered the car accident that happened last night, and remembered the police motorcycle behind him, but he couldn't remember what happened in the minutes before he fell unconscious.
He tried to shake his head, but found that his neck was not broken, and then moved his limbs slightly, and found that the limbs were intact, and there seemed to be no signs of fractures, and then he breathed a long sigh of relief.
He wanted to raise his hand and touch his face to confirm whether the car accident had broken his face, but he pulled it and found that his wrist was fixed on the hospital bed by something, and it felt a little cold to the touch. He didn't react for a while, and pulled hard a few more times, and there was a sound of metal bumping in the quiet ward, and he "chuckled" in his heart, knowing that he had been controlled by the police.
The first thought that welled up in his mind was: if he wants to escape, he must take advantage of it, otherwise he will have no chance when the police come. Thinking like this, he gritted his teeth and sat up from the hospital bed in pain. He looked around carefully, trying to find a tool to pry the handcuffs open as far as one hand could reach.
At this moment, the door of the ward suddenly opened, and a man with a tall posture and deep facial features pointed to the monitor installed in the corner of the ward and walked in with a smile.
The man was taken aback, and looked at the man awkwardly for a moment, but he didn't expect the man to walk to the edge of the bed and sit down, and said to him in a very friendly manner: "Thank God, you finally woke up." ”
The man felt a little baffled. He didn't seem to know the man, but he could tell that the man seemed to be genuinely worried about him. "You, who are you?" He stared at the man's face and asked in confusion, and as soon as he finished asking, the last image he saw before passing out came to his mind. By the way, it's him, the policeman who had been chasing after him last night......
"Hmph, so you caught me." The man snorted coldly, a hint of complaint on his face.
"Who else but me?" Qiao Sheng generously admitted, then looked at the man's injuries again, and asked with concern, "Are you okay?" ”
"Alright? Which eye do you see me like I'm fine? ”
"I'm sorry to make you like this, I have an unshirkable responsibility." Qiao Sheng smiled apologetically, "But if you don't run away, we won't chase you for your life." Can you tell me now why the hell are you running away? ”
"Nonsense, if I don't run, are you waiting for you to arrest me and go back to jail?"
Hearing this answer, Qiao Sheng was stunned, feeling that he couldn't understand very well. For a moment, he had the illusion that they were mistaken? Is this person on the hospital bed not Gu Li, but the real Wei Chiliang? But how is this possible? Even if the whole police force was mistaken, he would not be able to admit his mistake. He watched this child grow up from a young age, how could he not even be able to distinguish between his younger brother and the serial killer? But Gu Li's abnormal behavior is really puzzling. Could it be ...... Qiao Sheng thought of another possibility.
Judging from the appearance characteristics, this person is undoubtedly Gu Li. The reason why he appeared in the Lanting community, ventured close to Villa 17, and ran away as if he was dead when he saw the police, is probably because Gu Liao was the murderer who killed Yu Chilong.
"So......" After a moment of silence, Qiao Sheng asked in a slightly trembling voice, "Did you really kill the person?" ”
"Of course, didn't you knowingly ask?" The man shrugged his shoulders and replied nonchalantly.
Qiao Sheng suddenly burst into flames, grabbed the man's collar and roared, "Why do you want to kill someone? How can you do such a thing? You're a cop! ”
"Police?" The man blinked and looked at Qiao Sheng in bewilderment. "I don't understand what you're saying. Haven't you wanted me for years, though? Now that you've finally caught me, you've done a great job this time. ”
"You, what the hell are you talking about?" Qiao Sheng was completely stunned. He looked at the person in front of him in astonishment who looked exactly like Gu Li, but his speech and demeanor did not look like Gu Li's at all, and his heart became a pot of porridge. What the hell is going on? If it's not that I recognize the wrong person, then this kid must be crazy.
"I said officer......" The man sighed, took Qiao Sheng's hand away in disgust with the hand that was not handcuffed, and said coldly: "It's been a long time, you shouldn't know who I am, right?" ”
"Gu Li, you ...... Don't you remember me? Qiao Sheng suddenly felt that the hairs on his whole body stood up, and a layer of cold sweat oozed from his back. At this time, the man suddenly realized "oh", shook his head regretfully, and said, "It seems that you have recognized the wrong person." ”
"Impossible!" Qiao Sheng said categorically, staring closely at the man's pale but handsome face with a sharp gaze. He was clearly not Wei Chiliang, but why did he say these incomprehensible words? "Gu Li, can you stop making trouble? If you don't tell the truth, don't blame me for being rude to you! ”
"Please, I've said it all, you recognized the wrong person. What more do you want? ”
"You really don't remember me, do you?"
"I remember. It wasn't you chasing me on a motorcycle last night that I had a car accident. This account can't just be settled. ”
"You!" Qiao Sheng was so angry that his whole body trembled, and he couldn't continue to talk to this person at all. He took out a pair of handcuffs, locked the man's other hand on the hospital bed, and said through gritted teeth: "Okay, I'll let you pretend, I want to see how long you can pretend." With that, he walked out of the ward with a stomach full of anger, leaving the man alone on the hospital bed and complaining.
Leaving the ward, Qiao Sheng went directly to the office to find Gu Li's attending doctor. He was so anxious that he didn't care about any etiquette at all, and as soon as he entered the door, he shouted and asked, "Doctor Liu, have you checked that kid's head?" He couldn't have fallen out of the car and broken his brain, right? ”
It wasn't the first time Dr. Liu had dealt with Qiao Sheng, and he didn't seem to mind the other party's slightly rude behavior. He motioned for Qiao Sheng to sit down and patiently explained, "No, we have already done a very detailed examination. He didn't have any impact injuries on his head, and it is believed that he should have protected his head with his elbow when the car accident happened. ”
"Since he didn't hit his head, why did he keep talking nonsense?"
"Huh? Shouldn't this be......" Dr. Liu pushed his glasses, frowned and asked thoughtfully, "What kind of abnormalities does he have?" ”
"He doesn't seem to know who he is, and he doesn't remember who I am. I don't know if he was pretending to be like that, or if something was really wrong. ”
"As a doctor, I can tell you responsibly that even if something did go wrong with him, it shouldn't have anything to do with yesterday's car accident. No, he was already abnormal before he had the accident. ”
Qiao Sheng did not deny Dr. Liu's statement, and if he thought about it carefully, it was likely that this was the case, otherwise he would not be able to explain the strange behavior that Gu Li showed before the car accident.
"So be it." Dr. Liu continued, "I went to a psychiatrist to do a comprehensive examination for him, hoping to find the crux of the problem. ”
A day later, the results of the examination came back. Gu Liao is not mentally ill, but unfortunately, his strange appearance is not pretended. The conclusion given by the psychiatrist caused Qiao Sheng to fall into new troubles.
Combined with Gu Li's "undercover" experience in the underground prison, the psychiatrist believes that Gu Li's memory confusion should have been caused by strong stimulation, and it was also accompanied by very serious delusions.
To put it simply, in order to find Qin Yu's whereabouts, Gu Liao went deep into Liangshan Prison as an "undercover agent", and had to play the role of his most hated serial murderer - Wei Chiliang. The psychological pressure and the painful prison life subtly affected his state of mind, and the tragic experience of the prison riot further stimulated his nerves, making him deeply trapped in the role he had played.
Up to now, no one knows exactly how the prison riot ended, but it is certain that something must have happened after Gu Liao learned that Qin Yu was locked up in an underground prison and returned to the prison alone, so that Gu Liao finally became what they saw.
As the best partner in the past, Fan Cong also found it difficult to accept this cruel truth, but after all these twists and turns, he finally solved the many puzzles that pressed on his heart.
Why has Gu Liao not contacted them in the past few months, and has not reported back to the criminal police team; Why did Yu Chilong appear in the Lanting community after he was killed, even if he risked being caught, he had to sneak into the villa; why he runs away when he sees the police; Why did you see such an unfamiliar expression on his face......
Because Gu Yan had already regarded himself as the real Wei Chiliang. After escaping from the underground prison, in order to avoid the pursuit of the police, of course, he will hide his whereabouts, be careful everywhere like a real wanted criminal, and live in the darkest corners of the city. He didn't remember the brothers of the criminal police team, or even Captain Joe, so it was impossible for him to get in touch with the police team.
After Yu Chilong was killed, Gu Yan thought that this matter was closely related to him. In order to find out the truth of the case, he ventures back to the villa to check out the situation at the scene of the crime.
Since he already regarded himself as Wei Chiliang, he would naturally choose to run away when he saw the police, which also explained the surprising abnormal behavior that Gu Yan showed in front of them.
Anyway, the fact in front of them is that Gu Liao is no longer the sunny and cheerful criminal police member who loves to talk and laugh in the past, but has completely become a different person. There are many, many puzzles surrounding him, but the way he looks now is really distressing and anxious.
"Team Qiao, can Gu Li's illness be cured?" On the way back to the city bureau after leaving the hospital, Fan Cong asked worriedly while driving. Qiao Sheng looked at the rapidly receding scenery outside the car window, took a puff of cigarette, and replied resolutely: "It's not a question of whether he can or not, but that his illness must be cured." ”
"But what if ......"
"No whatever!" Qiao Sheng interrupted Fan Cong's pessimistic thoughts. "He's our only hope of destroying the organization, and we're going to have to find out what those people are no matter what."
"But he doesn't remember us, and we can't communicate with him now."
"Nope." Qiao Sheng shook his head, and there seemed to be a hint of hope in his voice. "There are some people he can still remember, after all, all he has forgotten is what happened before he entered the underground prison."
