Chapter XXXVIII

Tang Guo was confused, but Qin Cang sat firmly, calmly and leisurely read the pages of the book there, not to mention continuing to go out to complete the investigation work, and didn't even have the meaning of giving herself an explanation, which made her embarrassed, and she went to do things on her own, as if she was deliberately making trouble for Qin Cang, but if it was really like what Qin Cang said, playing with her mobile phone, eating snacks, and even sleeping, Tang Guo really couldn't do it, the reason was very simple, she was afraid of being bumped into by the leader, and it would be bad. It's a sin to openly fish in the unit in broad daylight, and still have a case at hand that has not been dealt with.

Qin Cang is estimated to be not afraid, although he is said to be a little later than the day when he came to the Serious Crime Team of the Public Security Bureau, but he is just a newcomer who has not graduated from the police academy not long ago, and Qin Cang has already been famous before he was admitted to the police force, and he is regarded as a specially recruited talent introduced by the Bureau to the Serious Crime Team, no matter whether he has done anything impressive so far, the person in charge of the Serious Crime Team still has to give him a few thin noodles for success, just this alone, he has no way to compare, Qin Cang fishes during work hours, may be regarded as a genius eccentric's unique way of working, and when you go to work and fish, you are really fishing!

There was no way, Tang Guo turned over all the insurance contracts copied back from the insurance company as evidence, read them page by page, and read them carefully one by one, in fact, she didn't know what the use of studying these boring insurance contract terms was, she just wanted to make herself feel more sure.

The terms of the insurance contract are very numerous, and it is really boring to read, and after a while, Tang Guo's head is little by little, and she really began to doze off, and when she woke up from the drowsiness, she hurriedly wiped the corners of her mouth with the back of her hand to see if she was drooling, and when she looked at Qin Cang, she found that he was still lazily leaning back in the chair reading a book, reading with relish.

"Are we really not going out?" Tang Guo couldn't sit still again, got up and came to Qin Cang's table.

Qin Cang put the book on the desk and raised his head to look at her: "You can't stay so still, you have to go out for a run?" ”

"No, if it's a serious break now, I can't wait to stay well, but aren't we still holding Kong Xiaotong's case in our hands, and we still don't have a clue now, can you stay like this?" Tang Guo asked puzzledly, the last time Qin Cang suddenly gave him and himself a half-day vacation in private during the daytime, he was already a little panicked, and he had been unsure, but no one else knew about it at that time, this time it was good, this guy was deserted in the office, and a colleague could see it clearly when he came back, Tang Guo really didn't understand what Qin Cang thought.

"I can stay still, because it's useless to go out and run around like a headless fly, so why should I waste my time and energy?" Qin Cang raised his eyebrows and answered Tang Guo's question confidently.

"Then you sit in the office and wait, and the headless fly will become the headless fly?" Tang Guo felt that he looked like he was playing a scoundrel, which was very incomprehensible.

Qin Cang shrugged: "Not for the time being, but maybe it will be after the case is investigated." ”

"Merger?" Tang Guo's eyes widened suddenly, "What's the case?" ”

"Are you Alzheimer's? Or are you actually a goldfish with only a few seconds of memory? Qin Cang became a little impatient, as if he was disgusted that Tang Guo had disturbed his tranquility, "What did you see before you came back?" ”

"The murder case in another building in the community of Kong Xiaotong's family...... You say that case will be merged? Tang Guo finally came back to his senses, "Why?" How can you see it? Is it because they are in the same community? ”

"Of course not, how could I be as brainless as you." Qin Cang snorted, "Tell you that the case will be merged, you can figure it out yourself, if you can't figure it out when the case is merged......"

"I'll ask you then, and you'll tell me again?" Tang Guo took the conversation for him.

Qin Cang shook his head: "Then you won't follow me in the future." ”

Tang Guo turned around and returned to her seat a little discouraged, holding her cheeks and began to meditate, she felt that Qin Cang's person was really yin and yang for a while, and sometimes she felt that others were not bad, but her personality was a little different from others, but sometimes, she felt that Qin Cang's mouth and attitude of talking and doing things were really hateful, and she couldn't find anyone more eye-catching than him.

Itchy teeth are itchy teeth, don't look at Tang Guo is not very mature, but her temper also has a secret strength to not admit defeat, after being despised by Qin Cang so much, she also ignited her fighting spirit, no matter what, she has to figure it out, she can't be despised so inexplicably, you must figure out the key to this, if it is really the possibility that Qin Cang said, the two cases will actually be implicated, and finally deal with them together, then I figured it out in advance, pondered and understood, it can be regarded as a proof of my IQ and ability, On the other hand, if Qin Cang's judgment is wrong, and he thinks about it and thinks that it is unlikely, and in the end it turns out that it is impossible to merge the case, then he can also rub Qin Cang's sharp spirit through this incident.

"Don't grit your teeth secretly, it's not easy to prove me wrong." Qin Cang was silent for a while, and suddenly opened his mouth, and said such a sentence to Tang Guo without a head.

Tang Guo was taken aback, and her face turned red, she peeked at Qin Cang with a little weak heart, and was surprised in her heart how he suddenly guessed the thought that was turning in his mind, Qin Cang didn't look at her, picked up the book again, and read it quietly, leaving Tang Guo with a red face, feeling as if he was about to spontaneously combust every minute, and the feeling of being caught was really not very comfortable.

After the embarrassment passed, Tang Guo forced himself to calm down and pondered why Qin Cang thought that the two cases might be combined. I tried to think about whether the two cases had anything in common except that they happened in the same residential community and the people killed were all women.

Tang Guo didn't know what the surname of the victim he just saw today was, so he had no way of knowing the age of the other party, so he could only roughly guess based on some trivial information.

When she and Qin Cang arrived at the scene, the deceased was still lying on the bed in a prone position, so there was no way to see her appearance, and she couldn't guess her age by her appearance, but I heard from the neighbors around her that the female deceased had a daughter who was more than two years old, judging by the age of marriage and childbearing, according to the minimum age of the legal age of marriage, plus ten months pregnant, and then guessing the age range roughly according to her dress, Tang Guo believes that the age of the deceased may be between twenty-three and four years old. Although the age span of ten years seems to be a bit old, it can still be used to make a rough estimate, Kong Xiaotong is Chinese New Year's Eve years old this year, and he is also in this age range, if the two cases are related, is the age of the deceased also in this category? It is also very likely that the killer specifically targeted women in this age group.

In addition, Tang Guo also took into account the word-of-mouth reviews of the two victims. In this regard, it seems that the gap between the two people is still relatively obvious. Kong Xiaotong's reputation is very good, except for Meng Junmao, her colleagues before her death have a very good evaluation of her, even if it is Meng Junmao's unreliable husband, he can't say a word when it comes to Kong Xiaotong, and on the other hand, the situation of the female victim I just saw today is very different, none of the neighbors did not describe her as a fierce and unreasonable image, as if it was not a person at all, but a tigress, saying that she scolded her husband very fiercely, It often scares children to the point of crying and so on. But from another point of view, Kong Xiaotong also showed some sharpness in the face of Zhong Ziming's harassment, obviously asked by the department to apologize to the other party, but because of the other party's disrespectful remarks, she turned her face on the spot, although it can't prove that Kong Xiaotong has a bad temper, but at least it shows that she is not that kind of soft persimmon.

Thinking of this, Tang Guo shook her head again, she felt that her judgment was a bit too far-fetched, as if she was trying to get something to do with these two people who were not related at all, so that these two cases could become related, and this kind of thinking had fallen into a strange circle.

What else is the connection? After the anger that Qin Cang despised just now gradually extinguished in her heart, Tang Guo also calmed down, she felt that although Qin Cang was weird, he never spoke and acted without purpose, he said that he might merge the case, it would definitely not be a simple joke with himself, but there was definitely a reason for him to think so, but what was it?

Tang Guo pondered for a long time, and recalled from the beginning that Qin Cang's every move, word and deed when she was at the scene of the crime today, and began to smooth it out carefully, the first thing that came to her mind was the death scene of the female deceased, the shirt that had been soaked in blood and almost turned black, the many knives that were stabbed by forensic doctor Yang Yibo, and the fact that the deceased had been strangled by the murderer, because at first glance, Tang Guo's brain seemed to be blocked a little, It didn't become very bright, but now that it had been a period of precipitation, and when she recalled it, she suddenly felt a little familiar.

When Kong Xiaotong was killed, he was strangled to death first, and then stabbed a lot of knives when he was dying, dyeing his dress blood-red, although the environment was completely different, and the state presented at the scene of death was not very different, but after putting aside these disturbing distractions, it was not difficult to find that in fact, the ways of killing these two women were so similar, the similarity was so high that Tang Guo felt a little scared.

The two victims are of the same gender, all female, living in the same community, and they were both strangled by their necks first, and then almost crazy to stab so many knives, which is definitely not a coincidence.

"Figured it out?"

Tang Guo had just come up with an eyebrow, and Qin Cang's voice sounded in her ears, startling her, because she was too focused, she was suddenly startled, and it was really not an exaggeration that she almost jumped up from the chair, she hurriedly looked up at Qin Cang, only to see that Qin Cang didn't know when he didn't read the book, and had already come to his desk, stretched out his long legs, and sat sideways on the side of the desk, staring at herself.

"Oh, it's okay, I thought of a little connection," Tang Guo told Qin Cang about his final conclusion, wanting to see if he had the same idea.

Who knew that after Qin Cang listened to her analysis, he just smiled mysteriously, and then said, "If you have enough confidence in yourself, after thinking about it thoroughly, you don't need to get affirmations from others to prove yourself right." ”

"It's easy to say, I'm not you." Tang Guo pursed his lips and muttered, but he didn't dare to offend him, so he suppressed the unhappiness in his heart and asked, "Then when do you think the case can be combined?" ”

"Let's see how godly your so-called detective Yan Lifu is, or how stubborn and insistent he is." Qin Cang replied lazily, when Yan Lifu was mentioned, there was obviously something in his tone that he didn't like it.

"So what are we going to do before then?" Tang Guo asked again.

"Do whatever you like, instead of doing useless work, it's better to do something you like, or take a vacation." After Qin Cang finished speaking, he stood up, stretched his waist, and returned to his seat to read.

There is no way, since Qin Cang said so, and the more Tang Guo thought about it, the more he felt that the two cases seemed to be related, so he could only continue to wait, Tang Guo did not continue to read the insurance contract this time, but simply learned from Qin Cang's appearance, the book was read there, but she was not as bold as Qin Cang, what she read was actually a novel, Tang Guo still honestly turned out a professional book and textbook during college, and began to read it carefully page by page, trying to consolidate his knowledge, Don't give everything you've learned back to your university and middle school teachers not long after you graduate.

As a result, it was time to get off work, let alone merge the case, Tang Guo didn't even see Yan Lifu's shadow, Qin Cang of course asked to get off work on time, Tang Guo had no choice, and he also got off work with a somewhat unsteady heart, and it was still the same the next day, Qin Cang didn't care, and did whatever he wanted, but Tang Guo was already on pins and needles. She has been a good child since she was a child, she has never violated any rules in school, she has not skipped school or truancy, but now she has been fishing for more than a day, and there is no trace of the merger!

And Qin Cang said this: "They haven't come back yet, it can only show that they are stupid, since they are so stupid, we should take a break in advance, otherwise we will start to be dragged down by those stupid people after the merger!" ”

called Yan Lifu, the well-known detective in the Public Security Bureau, especially the serious crime team, a "stupid", except for Qin Cang, he probably couldn't find anyone else.

Finally, on the afternoon of the third day, when Tang Guo was almost tormented and crazy by the inexplicable "vacation time" because he had no confidence, Chenggong finally appeared with Yan Lifu, and as soon as he entered the office, he made a round, saw Qin Cang and Tang Guo, nodded, and motioned for them to come over.

"There is a case that may need to be handled together with Kong Xiaotong's case, so you all have a meeting, have a meeting, and exchange relevant information." Success says to everyone in the office.
