On the first day of the opening of the new swimming pool, there was a tragic incident of death, and the director of the swimming pool was shocked into a cold sweat after receiving the news. He rushed to the swimming pool as fast as he could, and after seeing Fu Tian's body by the pool, his eyes straightened in shock and his mind was dizzy. In his understanding, there is only one situation in which an accident occurs in a swimming pool, and that is drowning. But what he saw now was a bloody corpse that resembled a fall from a building. Curators can't use common sense to judge. He also understood that with so many people witnessing this, it was impossible to block the news. At present, the only way is to notify the police to deal with it.

A police car and ambulance roared to the 'door' of the new swimming pool of the city sports center, and two capable policemen, a man and a woman, got out of the car and walked into the hall with the medical staff carrying stretchers. Around forty years old, the tough and cold male criminal police officer showed his police officer card to the staff at the 'door': "Lock off the swimming pool, no outsiders are allowed to enter, and people inside can't go out for the time being." ”

When the group came to the pool, the 'female' detective with beautiful curly hair was the first to see the corpse lying on the ground, frowned, and whispered to the male detective: "It looks like she fell from a height and fell to her death." ”

"The informant said that he died by diving from a high platform, do you believe it?"

"Nonsense. Unless instead of jumping into the water, he jumped to the edge of the pool. ”

By the time he said these words, the two policemen and the paramedics had already walked over to the bodies of the people surrounding the group. The curator stepped forward and said, "Officer, I called the police." I'm the person in charge here, and my surname is Fang. ”

The two criminal policemen took out their documents separately and displayed them in front of Curator Fang and everyone. The male criminal policeman said: "My name is Ke Yongliang, she is my partner Mei Ting, what happened here?" ”

Curator Fang wiped the sweat from his forehead: "I don't know very well, I only came after receiving the call." The one who died was a twenty-three-year-old young man named Fu Tian. According to lifeguards and those present, he was diving on a five-meter platform...... Fell to his death. ”

"Where did it fall?" Mei Ting asked. She is about thirty years old, slender, calm-eyed, and has a pair of very connoisseur-looking eyes, which seem to be able to see through the surface and 'hole' the essence.

Curator Fang 'revealed' a very embarrassed expression, as if he had just swallowed something very bitter. "In the water."

Mei Ting looked directly at him.

Curator Fang hurriedly pointed to the swimming pool: "That's it, you see." ”

The two policemen looked at each other. Because many people blocked it just now, they didn't notice it, and now they saw that the pool water under the five-meter diving platform was red, and the blood was spreading to the entire swimming pool. The two policemen glanced at each other, Ke Yongliang looked at Director Fang sternly and said, "This swimming pool is open for the first time today?" ”

“…… Yes. ”

Ke Yongliang's eyes widened: "The construction of the swimming pool does not meet the standards? This boy fell to the bottom of the pool? ”

"No, it can't be!" Director Fang said with a smile, "The design and construction of the swimming pool are completely in line with the standards. Underneath the five-meter platform is a deep pool with a depth of 4.5 meters. Besides, before this boy, many people have jumped off the five-meter platform, if there is a problem, how can he be the only one who has an accident? ”

"We'll check that later." Ke Yongliang said, "Now tell me the specific situation at the time of the incident. ”

At this time, a forensic doctor came over and said, "Officer Ke, confirm that the subject is dead. ”

Ke Yong nodded and said, "You first send the body to the funeral home, and make an identification of the cause of death within two hours - by the way, try to contact his family and notify the family of the deceased to the funeral home." ”

Fu Tian's body was carried on a stretcher, covered with a white cloth, and taken away by two medical personnel. Xinna, who woke up after being in a coma, stood aside, covered her mouth with her hands, and burst into tears. She wanted to walk over, but was pulled by Hang Yi.

After the arrangement, Ke Yongliang looked at Curator Fang. Curator Fang pointed to the lifeguard and said, "I wasn't at the scene at the time, please ask him for details." ”

Ke Yongliang and the lifeguards beside Curator Fang 'crossed' and talked. Mei Ting didn't participate in the questioning, she glanced at the people by the pool. Among them, Xinna, who had been crying, and several older boys who stood with her caught her attention. She observed that they watched the bodies leave, looking sad, and that their relationship with the deceased was clearly different from that of others.

After talking to the lifeguard for a while, Ke Yongliang also looked at Xinna and them. He said to Mei Ting: "Those people are probably friends of the deceased, and when the deceased stood on the five-meter jumping platform, it was the 'girl' who pushed him down." ”

"Would you like to ask her to go to the bureau?"

Ke Yongliang pondered for a moment: "This matter is very strange. According to common sense, even if you push a person off the jumping platform, as long as you fall into the water, you can't fall like this. Unless he didn't fall into the water. ”

"But with so many eyewitnesses at the scene, how could they lie?"

"So we don't ask anyone to go to the bureau individually, it's most effective to ask everyone here." Ke Yongliang frowned, "I don't believe they can make up a lie with everyone in such a short period of time." ”

"Yes, it can't be." Mei Ting observed the crowd and said.

"Let's go ask a few of them first."

The two policemen walked towards Xinna and Hang Yi.

Xinna was wrapped in a 'wool' scarf, and her eyes were red and swollen from crying. Hang Yi, Han Feng, Lu Hua and Mi Xiaolu were by her side. I was a little nervous when I saw the police walking towards them.

"You guys are friends of the deceased, aren't you?" Officer Ke asked.

"Yes, we are tutoring English together at the Mingde Foreign Language Training Center." Hang Yi replied, pointing at Han Feng and Lu Hua. "The three of us are in the same class as Fu Tian."

Mei Ting took out a small notebook and a pen from her jacket pocket. "Please name each of you."

From the beginning of Hang, several people talked next to each other. Mei Ting wrote them down one by one, and then looked at them: "Did you meet the deceased by chance while swimming, or did you invite him to come with you?" ”

The classmates who used to tutor together have now become "deceased". Hang Yi was very sad in his heart. He paused for a few seconds, pointed to Xin Na and Mi Xiaolu and said, "The three of us made an appointment with Fu Tian to swim, and then we met Han Feng and Lu Hua. ”

Mei Ting buried her head in the record. Ke Yongliang asked: "Before the accident, did anything unusual happen?" ”

Several people looked at each other and shook their heads in unison.

Ke Yongliang looked at Xin Na: "I heard the lifeguard say that the deceased was standing on the jumping platform, and he was a little hesitant, but you pushed him down?" ”

Xinna twitched all over, and she replied with a pale face, "...... Yes, I just wanted to play around with him, I didn't expect it to be like this......" said as she said, tears overflowing again.

Ke Yongliang stared at Xin Na for a long time and asked, "After you pushed him down, where did he fall?" ”

"In the water...... And only in the water! "The jumping platform is very long, and no matter what, it can't land on the edge of the pool!" ”

Ke Yongliang and Mei Ting looked at the jumping platform together, and had to admit that this 'girl' child was right. They froze for a moment, then turned their heads and continued, "You can all clearly see that the dead man fell into the water, didn't you?" ”

"It's not just us, the whole pool saw him fall into the water." Lu Hua said.

"Then how did he fall and break his head and break his whole body?!" Ke Yongliang shouted.

When Sina heard him say this, she hid her face and cried bitterly: "Yes...... I'm also wondering, why is that?! He just dived, how could he fall to his death? And...... I pushed him down...... I killed him! ”

"Xinna, it's not your fault!" Hang Yi was very sad, and he gently grabbed Xinna's shoulder. "You don't have to blame yourself, it's none of your business."

Mei Ting frowned imperceptibly.

Han Feng said to the two policemen, "Officer, the people in the entire pool can confirm that we are telling the truth. And there's only so much we can tell you. ”

Ke Yongliang was about to speak, Mei Ting quietly touched him from behind, and then said to a few young people: "Okay, thank you for your cooperation, let's go ask other people." ”

After speaking, she glanced at Ke Yongliang. The two of them left a few of them and turned to ask the others by the pool.

After asking for about half an hour, dozens of people, the answers were almost unanimous. Ke Yongliang felt that there was no need to ask any more. He told Curator Fang that he could let everyone leave.

The two criminal policemen returned to the police car and were silent for a few seconds, Ke Yongliang asked, "Why did you just signal me not to ask those people again?" ”

Mei Ting silently took out a small notebook and drew a line under the names of Hang Yi, Han Feng, Lu Hua, and Mi Xiaolu.

"What do you mean?"

"I just told you to leave first, because I wanted to ask more people and make comparisons. It turned out that my judgment was right, and there was something wrong with these four people. ”

"How so?"

"Have you noticed that when we questioned them, only the 'girl' named Sina was the only one of the five of them who showed the same 'confusion' as us. The other four boys did not show much sleepiness. It's like they know what's going on. ”

Ke Yongliang bowed silently.

Mei Ting continued: "Then, we asked some other people. Everyone's look and language showed their confusion. In contrast, only the four boys had the most peculiar reactions – and three of them were classmates from the same cram school as the deceased – so I think there might be something wrong with the four of them. ”

"Worthy of being the micro-expression expert of our criminal police detachment!" Ke Yongliang said in admiration, and then frowned, "But, since you judged that there was something wrong with the four of them, why didn't you take them back to the bureau for careful interrogation, and instead told me to let them go first?" ”

"Because I don't think I can ask anything about taking them back, I don't want to startle them." Mei Ting closed her lips and thought for a moment, then looked at Ke Yongliang, "Don't you think this case is really strange?" I believe that none of the witnesses present were lying, that is, it was really an accident, but it was done in a way that did not make sense! Someone died in front of everyone, but no one knew how the man died! No! If each of them behaves at a loss, that's fine—four of them give me the impression that they know something, but they don't say it. Lao Ke, this case is definitely not simple! ”

"You suspect it's an intentional homicide?" Ke Yongliang asked sternly. "But how?"

"That's right, at the moment, it seems completely impossible. That's why I said it wasn't easy. However, we have to 'figure out' that this matter is not without clues, at least these four boys are a breakthrough. I think they must know some kind of 'inside story'. Mei Ting guessed.

"So what do you think we should do?"

Mei Ting stared at him. "Investigate a few of them secretly, and don't let them notice that the police have noticed them."

Ke Yongliang said: "Why do I think you attach special importance to this case and are particularly cautious? ”

Mei Ting opened her mouth, "Because ......" and "desire" stopped talking.

"Say, we've been partners for so many years, is there anything else we can't talk about?"

Mei Ting looked at Ke Yongliang: "Old Ke, we have been working together for so many years, you know, I have an indescribable intuition about handling cases." On the surface, this incident was just an unreasonable accident. But I don't know why, I feel very uneasy, I always feel that there is some amazing secret hidden behind this incident, and it will lead to very serious results in the end. This incident is just the beginning. ”

Ke Yongliang stared at her. "Don't scare me. The last time you felt this way, it happened ......"

"Don't talk about it." Mei Ting closed her eyes, her lips tightened.

Ke Yongliang nodded lightly. "Anyway, do as you say. We quietly investigated these people. Maybe you can really find something wrong with them. ”

With that, Ke Yongliang started the police car and drove forward. F
