Chapter 17: More than just an illusion

"There are too many doubts in this case!"

At this time, Xia Xixi said her analysis: "On the one hand, the victim has been taking antidepressant drugs before her death, which shows that she knows that she has depression, and it also shows that she clearly knows that what she hears, sees, knocks on the door, and cat's eyes are all caused by neurasthenia or severe depression...... Only when this is clear that the patient will receive medication, this is true, but if it is so reasonable, how can the charm be explained? Why did she put so many terrible charms under her bed? ”

"Hmm!" Wang Jianfei agreed with Xia Xixi's words with both hands: "If she thinks that all she hears and sees is a mess of cows, ghosts, snakes, and gods, then it is not right to buy an antidepressant drug like Anslip, because this is too illogical, to put it bluntly, it has been studied in criminal psychology, atheists and theists, these two kinds of people are black and white!" Either you completely believe in science, or you completely lose your mind and fall into superstition! But the victim Sun Li seems to be a combination of two kinds of people......"

When Wang Jianfei and Xia Xixi exchanged opinions, I didn't speak.

However, Wang Jianfei's three words of "combination" touched my sensitive nerves and made me think quickly and divergently!

"It is impossible for anyone to do both theism and atheism at the same time!"

"Then ......" Wang Jianfei was dumbfounded, stretched out his hands and shrugged, "Then how to explain this matter?" ”

"I have a hypothetical explanation for this." I squinted my eyes and looked at Wang Jianfei and asked him, "What if, what this Sun Li is afraid of is not the same thing at all?" ”

As soon as these words came out, everyone's eyes subconsciously widened!

"What do you mean?" Xia Xixi looked at me in surprise and asked.

"I mean, she bought Anslip to fight depression, and she did know that she had depression and was willing to choose to use scientific methods to treat this disease, but it doesn't matter if she sticks under the bed and is antidepressant! It doesn't even have anything to do with those so-called knocks on the door, the eyeballs in the cat's eyes...... Because if anything, why can't a girl who lives alone put a charm directly behind the door but under her bed? ”

Wang Jianfei seemed to be awakened by my words: "You mean to say that the strange phenomenon at the door is the reason for Sun Li's abnormal mental state, but this is not the only reason?" ”

"That's right!" I nodded: "Of course, as you said, this is just my reasoning, and there is no reliable evidence to back it up. ”

"Boss, what should we do next?" At this time, Xia Xixi also became nervous, asked Wang Jianfei directly, and reminded: "Wang Qianqian's case was cracked last week, and the director just praised our serious crime team for its speed, and now this Sun Li's case has been handed over by the police station in the jurisdiction, and the delay has been long enough, the voice of public opinion in the society is getting louder and louder, and the murderer has clearly provoked the serious crime team and provoked the authority of the police. I don't have to stay in the Serious Crime Team in the future......"

Hearing Xia Xixi say this, Wang Jianfei frowned: "Xiao Hu and Xiao Zhang have already searched all the pharmacies within five kilometers of Sun Li's company and home, and they will definitely be able to find some clues one by one." ”

"So, what do we do now?" Xia Xixi asked.

Wang Jianfei actually has no bottom in his heart, after all, any homicide case is the enemy in the dark and in the open, the enemy casually puts a one, and the serious crime team has to go through multiple logical reasoning and corroboration to confirm and accuse, every case is a mandatory topic, and it is the kind without options! Make your own list of options and find the right answer! It's not easy.

"Ogawa, what do you mean?" Wang Jianfei subconsciously looked at me.

At this time, everyone's eyes were on me, after all, in their eyes, I had solved a "big case", and at the same time, I also had "zero distance" contact with the murder scene last night, and their opinions were still very important.

Actually, I do have some ideas.

After that, I quickly looked at the female forensic doctor: "I want to ask, you just said that after I inhaled the bath salts, that is, methcathinone, it will not be fatal, but there will be a retching reaction during this time?" ”

"Yes." The female forensic doctor nodded and explained: "In the United States, methcathinone is even called a zombie drug, even if the physical fitness is good, it is impossible to have no side effects and consequences. ”

"Then, how long should this consequence come?"

The female forensic doctor didn't know why I asked, so she thought about it blankly and explained: "The specific drug effect appears, whether it is a beneficial effect or a side effect, it is manifested differently according to each person's different constitution, but in the case of methcathinone, even if the person has a good physique, the onset of side effects will last within two hours and last for more than 48 hours......"

I asked Xia Xixi again: "It's noon now, and it's been almost twelve hours since I was in a coma last night, right?" However, I didn't retch at all......"

Xia Xixi asked with a look of incomprehension, "What do you mean?" ”

I gasped: "I mean, it's been twelve hours, and I haven't reacted yet, doesn't it mean that my physique is pretty good?" ”

"yes." The female forensic doctor nodded: "You have no abnormal reaction so far, it is indeed quite unexpected." ”

"Then, with such a good physical fitness, it shouldn't be possible for me to hallucinate in less than three minutes after inhaling bath salts, right?"

When I said this, they all seemed to think of something, and their eyes widened!

Wang Jianfei asked excitedly, "Did you think of something?" ”

I did think of something!

I thought about all the images I had seen last night, and it was true that there were hallucinations, but they were definitely not all hallucinations!

As I recall, at that time, I noticed that something was wrong with methcathinone, and after inhalation, I soon found that there was something else under the bed, and the interval between them was only one or two minutes.

And after discovering the spell, I'm afraid it won't even take a minute, right?

In other words, from the time I smoked methcathinone to the time "Sun Li" walked to the bedroom step by step, the total time added up to less than five minutes!

Symptoms within five minutes of the drug's effect?

Even if it was, but at least, the pair of feet I saw walking into the bedroom in military boots at the beginning was not an illusion!

At least, the effect of the drug doesn't come on as quickly, although it does so quickly......

But I remember vividly in my mind that the first thing I saw approaching me must have been a pair of feet in black men's military boots!

And not Sun Li's feet in cotton slippers!!

If seeing Sun Li is an illusion, then, seeing those military boots, is it the second time that the murderer has returned to the scene?

In other words, 80% of the murderers mentioned in the book Criminal Psychology will choose to return to the scene in the dead of night after committing a crime, including the character of the murderer in this case!

But, on the other hand, I didn't get hurt!

I analyzed that it may be that the murderer returned to the scene at that time and only felt the pleasure after a successful murder and did not find me!

However, this is unlikely, after all, the bedroom area is not large,

But what exactly is the reason why the murderer did not attack me, now it is not the most important thing at all!

The important thing is that since the murderer has returned, has he left any clues?

Thinking of this, I hurriedly asked Wang Jianfei: "After you found me, did you have any traces of the scene of the second investigation?" ”

Wang Jianfei nodded: "I arranged for the second group of people to investigate, but, after all, before you woke up, the test results of Anslip have not yet come out, I am worried about your safety, so I didn't go to the scene of the second investigation ...... crime."

I said, "Last night, the murderer really went back quietly......

"What?!"

"Are you sure?"

Wang Jianfei and Xia Xixi looked at me incredulously at the same time: "Are you sure that is not your hallucination?" ”

"I must be hallucinating when I see Sun Li! Because I knew that Sun Li's body was already lying on the dissection table, it was impossible for her to get up and go back to the bedroom to find me...... But the boots I saw were definitely not an illusion! The boots are special, with rivets on the front, which look bright in the dark, and the soles should be made of artificial leather, and the sound of stepping on the wooden floor is crisp and special...... I've never seen anyone wear them before, so it can't be my imagination! ”

After finishing speaking, I immediately patted Wang Jianfei on the shoulder, and said excitedly: "I'm not at ease when other people do an investigation, and they don't have a specific goal, let's go right now, I know where the shoes are stepping on, I must find them!" ”

Wang Jianfei was a little embarrassed: "However, your physical condition ......"

"Don't worry about me, I'm fine!" I let out a long breath and jumped directly from the hospital bed: "The case is important, the longer the time drags on, the greater the possibility of being destroyed!" ”

"This ...... All right! Wang Jianfei couldn't resist me, nodded and immediately arranged for Xia Xixi to prepare materials and tools.

And it was precisely at this time that the team that went to the second investigation site called Wang Jianfei.

"Boss! There is a major discovery! We just illuminated Sun Li's bedroom with fluorescent lights and found a row of footprints that didn't exist yesterday!! ”

"Really?"

Wang Jianfei instantly rejoiced in his heart: "Protect it immediately!" Let's see if we can do the extraction of useful information! ”

"Yes!"

The people in the second group were very loud, and we all heard it.

Xia Xixi was shocked that my conjecture was immediately confirmed, and so was Wang Jianfei.

After hanging up the phone, Wang Jianfei said to me directly: "Xiaochuan, you guessed right!" The murderer went back last night, but the people in the second group said that the row of footprints under the fluorescent light walked from the bedroom to the edge of the bed inside, that is, when the murderer was in the bedroom, it can be confirmed that he walked to the place where you were unconscious! He's found you......"
