Chapter 12: The Mystery of Identity

Back in the car, Gu Song's heart began to feel faintly uneasy, "Dong Wei is not at home, he didn't come to work, and his mobile phone was turned off at this time, where do you think he will be at this time?" ”

"Today is the National Day, so maybe people go out shopping." Xia Shi said comfortingly.

"Then he has to ask the manager for leave, right? You can't skip work so openly. ”

"Hmm......" Xia Shi pinched his chin and thought about it and said, "In this way, I asked the technical team to keep an eye on Dong Wei's mobile phone, and when he turns it on, he will naturally be able to find him." ”

"I don't think so. Do you think he's ......?"

"It stands to reason that it shouldn't be." Xia Shi knew what Gu Song was worried about, and he himself had the same concerns. However, there is no substantive evidence that Dong Wei is the murderer they are looking for, although from all aspects, Dong Wei does fit the characteristics of the murderer, but these speculations cannot be used as evidence for conviction. "I think Dong Wei shouldn't know that he has been suspected by the police, and he doesn't have the need to run away......"

"So what now? Just passively waiting for him to show up? Gu Song scratched his hair depressedly, and suddenly thought of something even worse, "What if he can't control himself and commit the crime again?" ”

"Phew, don't you crow, okay?" Xia Shi glanced at Gu Song and said angrily. "I have already said hello to the people at the car service center just now, as soon as Dong Wei appears, they will immediately get in touch with the police. I now ask Meng Yu to take someone to monitor Dong Wei's residence, and once he returns, I will immediately take him to the criminal police team for questioning. ”

"Is there any other way to find him soon?"

"I don't think so. He has such an odd temper and doesn't have any close friends, where can we find him? ”

"What about through his family?"

"Let's check it out, let's hope it's not as serious as we thought."

Once again, their fears proved not unfounded. Dong Wei's mobile phone has not been turned on, and there has been no movement at home, let alone the car service center. For two days, they didn't see Dong Wei's shadow, as if this person had suddenly disappeared from the world.

Through investigation, the police also found that Dong Wei's identity was actually forged, and the corresponding person could not be found in the system at all. What his original name was, when he was born, where his hometown was, when he came to live in R City, and why he used a fake identity, all of these are unsolved mysteries. Since he didn't know his true identity, it was impossible to find his whereabouts through his family.

On the evening of October 3, Xia Shi applied for a search warrant and decided to conduct a detailed search of Dong Wei's residence. After using the landlord's key to open the door and eliminate the danger inside, the technical team walked into the room with the survey box and began to work.

This is a two-bedroom house of about 60 square meters, with little furniture and very simple furnishings. Qi Ruonan roughly looked around the situation in the house, frowned and said, "It seems that Dong Wei has already packed up his personal belongings and moved away. The room was very clean, probably not leaving us any traces of value. ”

"You must carefully survey every corner of the room, and there must be no omission." Xia Shi clenched his fists and said very unwillingly, "I don't believe that guy is so smart and can plan things so thoughtfully." ”

"Xia Shi......" Gu Song tugged at his sleeve and said with a serious expression, "I think something is wrong with this matter." ”

"What's wrong?" Xia Shi didn't know what Gu Song was referring to, in his opinion, the whole case was fucking inexplicable from the beginning.

"Why did Dong Wei run away?"

"Because he was cunning and sensed the movements of the police."

"Why is his anti-detection ability so strong?"

"Because he ......" Xia Shi's eyes widened and he was stunned, Qi Ruonan took over and said: "He has been using a fake identity to live, has he ever done anything shady?" Afraid of being found out by the police. ”

"What do you mean...... Xia Shi's face became more and more ugly, "he may have other cases on his back?" His real identity may be a fugitive? ”

"Judging from the current situation, this possibility cannot be ruled out." Gu Song sighed deeply, and regretted a little in his heart that he didn't seize the opportunity and let Dong Wei slip away.

"Now that I think about it, Dong Wei really hates dealing with the police, at first I thought it was due to his personality, but now it seems that it may not be the case at all." Xia Shi also blamed himself a little, if he could have noticed Dong Wei's abnormality earlier and launched an investigation into Dong Wei as soon as possible, maybe the case would have been solved by now. However, it is useless to say more, and it is useless to think more without evidence. "Forget it, let's hurry up and get to work." He patted Gu Song's shoulder and regained his spirits.

After looking at the living room, I came to the kitchen in the northwest corner in the summer. The place was also cleaned, as if no one had ever lived in it. He opened the doors of the cabinets in turn to see if there were any leftovers inside, but it was still in vain.

When he turned to face the corner of the kitchen and opened the refrigerator door, he suddenly felt like vomiting for some reason. He covered his mouth and retched a few times, his expression looking very painful.

Gu Song saw him like this, although he was a little distressed, he still couldn't help but tease him: "Xia Shi, why do you always want to vomit lately?" Isn't it going to be? ”

"There's your sister!" Xia Shi glared at Gu Song viciously, pointed to the empty refrigerator and said, "What a fucking evil door, as soon as I opened this refrigerator, I felt chills all over my body, and goosebumps stood on my body." ”

"Nonsense, can you open the refrigerator without getting cold. What the hell is wrong with you? ”

"I can't tell, I feel like there's something disgusting in there."

"No, it won't." Gu Song was stunned for a moment, approached the refrigerator and sniffed hard, and said suspiciously, "There is no special smell, are you thinking too much?" ”

"I hope so......" Summer smirked self-deprecatingly. Recently, he feels that he is becoming more and more "hypocritical", and it seems that after this busy time, it is indeed necessary for him to go to the hospital for a good examination.

The focus of the police's next work is, first, to find a way to find out Dong Wei's true identity, and second, to confirm whether he has a criminal record and whether he is a wanted criminal or a fugitive on the Internet.

But due to the lack of evidence, they dare not be 100% sure that Dong Wei is the murderer of He Yao and Xu Zilin, so the investigation of the suspects is also continuing.

October 4th is the Mid-Autumn Festival, and Xia Shi gave Gu Song a day off, so that he could accompany his family well, sort out his thoughts by the way, and find a breakthrough in the case. Gu Song spent most of the day accompanying Tian Rui to do dialysis in the hospital, and when he returned home in the afternoon, the two of them watched a relaxing and romantic love movie on the bed.

After Tian Rui fell asleep, Gu Song had nothing to do for a while, and when he fiddled with his mobile phone, he suddenly remembered Huo Yan, and then thought of Huo Yan's father, Professor Huo Qingkun.

When solving the case together two days ago, Gu Song heard Huo Yan mention Professor Huo's recent situation, and he was very emotional. He remembers that when he was in college, his favorite course was Professor Huo's lecture on criminal psychology. When he first heard that psychological portraits could help the police lock down criminal suspects, he was full of curiosity and yearning for this science.

Gradually, he learned more and more knowledge, and he became more and more admired by experts and scholars engaged in the study of criminal psychology. The cases that Professor Huo told in class impressed him the most were the series of bombings that occurred in New York from 1940 to 1956.

After reviewing the police file, Dr. Brussels, a mental health assistant researcher in New York State, made a comprehensive profile of the murderer's age, figure, personality, place of birth, education, and way of dressing.

Later, the murderer, George Mittsky, was arrested and confessed to the crimes he had committed. Miraculously, at the time of his arrest, Mitsky was wearing a blue double-breasted suit, and the buttons were all buttoned.

Nowadays, Professor Huo, who is wise and erudite, who is good at talking on the podium, has a cerebral thrombosis, cannot walk, and sometimes has symptoms such as confusion and slurred speech, which is really embarrassing.

Gu Song thought of this, and felt that he should go home to greet the teacher when his condition was not particularly serious, so as not to leave lifelong regrets.

He called Huo Yan and explained his thoughts. Huo Yan seemed very happy, immediately sent the address, and told him to buy less things. Gu Song agreed, but when he came to the door, he still carried a large bag of condolences, just like when Xia Shi went to his house to visit Tian Rui a few days ago.

"Look at you, you're welcome, you're still buying so many things." Huo Yan smiled and invited Gu Song into the house, and introduced Gu Song's identity to her mother.

Gu Song greeted Huo Yan's mother, Huo Yan's mother held his hand and said with relief: "Child, because you are so kind, he has only taught you for two semesters, but you miss him so much." ”

"Of course, Professor Huo is my most respected teacher, and without one, I will never forget him in my life."

"Then let's go in and see him." Huo Mu smiled even more happily, "The old man is very sober now, I guess you two have a lot to talk about." ”

"Hmm." Gu Song smiled and nodded, and then followed Huo Zhi towards the bedroom inside.

When she came to the door, Huo Yan turned her head and squeezed her eyes at Gu Song playfully, "Officer Gu, don't go in yet." After saying that, she gently pushed open the door and walked in, pretending to be mysterious and said to her father who was lying on the bed, "Dad, guess who came to see you?" ”
