It's like a snake biting its own tail and trying to swallow it.

After more than half an hour, the effects of the drug began to kick in, and the feeling of detachment in my body began to slowly disappear.

There are not a few detoxification pills on my side, and although Zhao Youfa still has them, his own condition also needs to be maintained by antidote pills.

I can't send the antidote pill out, and now I want it back, that is tantamount to Zhao Youfa's life.

Besides, Zhao Youfa and I are friends so far, he respects me, and I naturally can't treat him badly.

However, Wang Zhengqing was worried about my condition, and used Mo Xiaoyun as an excuse to let me rest for more than ten minutes before I was allowed to get up, and Mo Xiaoyun also prepared a hearty breakfast for me to eat before leaving.

"No, you know there's a murder out there waiting for me to get there, right?"

I'm a little embarrassed, I've been delayed, and now ......

But Wang Zhengqing said: "Don't worry, the earth is like you, I just contacted Gu Man, the body has been taken away, and their son has also been settled again, you can eat a good meal with peace of mind and go directly to the General Administration with me." ”

Hearing him say this, after I checked with Gu Man, I could only agree, after all, with the current condition of my body, I really can't die.

After everything was in order, Wang Zhengqing and I drove directly to the General Bureau, still leaving Mo Xiaoyun alone at home, although he wanted to go out with us, but I always felt that it was dangerous outside, especially her senior brother's case is now the same without frowns, I don't want to make trouble.

But I promised her that she would let Wang Zhengqing come back soon, at least there would be no shortage of people at home, and the old dog guy, Wang Zhengqing said that he didn't know where to go to the old dog, this guy only said before he left that he was going to investigate the case, and I don't know what to investigate.

When we arrived at the General Bureau, Gu Man was already waiting outside the door.

The hotel, which is also the guest house, is nearby, and she got in the car and followed us to the scene of the crime.

Although the scene has been protected, there are still some reporters waiting outside, and there are no measures to expel them for the time being, Gu Man told me that this matter has been suppressed by Lao Ding as much as possible, but the news is not blocked in a timely manner, so there are still some fish that have slipped through the net, including the reporters who are now guarding outside.

And Qiao Yan's death was not discovered by Gu Man and them at first, but a cleaning aunt, when she was cleaning, she saw a crack in the door, but there was a child's cry inside, so she found that Qiao Yan was killed in the hotel.

At the same time, the hotel's CCTV system has been damaged and is currently in the process of being repaired, but it is estimated that no valuable information has been captured.

During the whole process, the only victim was the child, I estimate that the child witnessed the whole process of the crime, but Gu Man told me that the child had some bruises on his head, and the doctor's identification was that the child had been in a coma for a period of time, and this time was likely to be the time when Qiao Yan was killed.

This is strange, if Qiao Yan hid the child in the closet, it makes sense.

But who caused the child to fall into a coma? Is it Qiao Yan or the murderer.

If it's Qiao Yan, that's reasonable; If it is the murderer, it is worth looking for, so we have to speculate on the murderer's thoughts.

For example, just now, I thought about what kind of signal did the murderer kill Qiao Yan want to send to me or Wang Shoucai? Now I understand that if the child was knocked out by the murderer and deliberately let go, then the murderer wanted to send a message to Wang Shoucai, telling Wang Shoucai that his wife was dead, and if he said something that should not be said, then his son would also be cold.

During the meal, I spoke my mind.

After Wang Zhengqing and Gu Man heard it, they all felt that it made sense.

"Is this a big deal?"

I shook my head and said, It's not all, but the murderer must have wanted to use this to knock Wang Shoucai, so that Wang Shoucai could keep the secret while being afraid, because of Qiao Yan's death, we will definitely tell him.

"Can we choose not to tell him?"

"Nope." I said, "You can keep it from him for a while, but not for long." ”

Hearing me say this, Gu Man was a little discouraged, but soon we came to the hotel where the crime occurred, and we came to Qiao Yan's mother and son's room together, the first floor of this place has been blocked, and Qiao Yan's mother and son's room is also very close to the investigation of the crime scene investigation department, such as where Qiao Yan fell, her posture and some samples left.

On the way here, I had already read the information that Gu Man had given me, which was a preliminary assessment report of the Crime Scene Investigation Bureau.

There is no valuable information on the report, after all, this case is not an ordinary homicide, and I asked Gu Man if she had seen Qiao Yan's body, and she said that she didn't see it either, because she came late, the scene had been blocked, Lao Ding blocked the news, and only when Lao Ding dealt with it could we go to the forensic department to take a look.

After going around the scene, there is also no valuable information to provide us, after all, these things have been investigated by others, if there are any clues, Gu Man must have found it.

"At the time of the crime, the child was in this closet."

Gu Man opened one of the wallboxes and told me by gesture: "That child is relatively petite, and he can just hide in it." ”

I took a look, it was a wardrobe next to the bed, embedded in the crack in the wall, and Qiao Yan fell on the other side, that is, at the window, I walked over, looked at the painting on the ground Qiao Yan fell traces, and fell into deep thought.

At this time, Gu Man came over and told me that the murderer could not have come in from the window, and the rooftop outside was not open, but it was only used to dry the quilt.

I shook my head and said no, Gu Man asked me what was wrong.

"The distance is wrong." I continued: "If someone wants to kill Qiao Yan, then Qiao Yan has no ability to resist, it means that the time from the time she found out the danger to the time she fell to the ground was very short, so when did she put the child in the closet?" ”

"Maybe she saw the danger ahead of time?"

I shook my head again and picked up the preliminary assessment report she had given me earlier.

There was a mention of all sorts of traces they had collected, but there was one thing they overlooked, and I walked to the bed and found a few gray marks on the white quilt.

I stretched out my hand, and Gu Man was stunned for a long time before he reacted and handed me a small brush and a small bag.

"Your ability to react is not good, Comrade Gu Man."

"Shit, I have more experience than you, right?"

Of course, Gu Man couldn't accept me to question his ability to handle cases, but when he saw me brushing the dust on the sheets with a small brush, he was puzzled.

"What are you doing with this thing? Is it any use? ”

I ignored her, brushed some of the dust in a small bag, and handed it to her.

"Take this to the test and compare it with the dust on the soles of the kid's shoes to see if it's from the same place."

Gu Man didn't understand what I meant, she didn't understand why I was doing this, so she asked me what I thought.

"I just want to see who hid the child in the closet, I preliminarily determined that Qiao Yan could not have warned in advance, but even if the murderer let the child go, there was no need to protect the child, so ...... I want to be sure. ”

Seeing that I didn't make it clear, Gu Man nodded and said that she would go find someone to test, and then we went around the scene and returned to the General Bureau together.

I went to see Lao Ding, and he was under a lot of pressure, and after waiting in his office for a while, he had already received four or five phone calls.

After the phone call, he asked me: "Zhang Yao, this matter is a bit difficult to do, mainly it was exposed by the media at the beginning, and now it is the Internet era, and it is difficult to block the news." ”

"Who told the media about this in the first place?"

Lao Ding sighed and said: "The cleaning aunt who found the corpse, I guess I want to be on fire, what video was taken and uploaded to the Internet, and now the video has been deleted, but I don't know how much has been preserved." ”

After speaking, he handed me a mobile phone, which was the video taken by the cleaner.

In the video screen, there is no particularly bloody scene, only Qiao Yan fell in a pool of blood, and the cry of a child came from the closet.

"Nowadays, some people want to go crazy when they want to be angry, and they don't care about social unrest and panic."

I nodded to show that I agreed, and before I could say a word, he answered the phone again, and after the phone hung up, I mentioned to him that I wanted to see Qiao Yan's body.

He patted his thigh and said, "I forgot about this, you go and see it, I'll call you at the forensic department, you wait for Team Leader Qin to contact you, ask him to call me back, I have to communicate with him, otherwise it will be difficult for me to explain to the superiors." ”

I nodded and said I understood, and got up and went to the medical examiner.

Since Lao Ding had said hello, Wang Zhengqing and I easily crossed the restrictions of those temporary lockdowns.

Since the corpse had been frozen, although it had not yet completely entered the frozen state, there was already some frost on the corpse, and what was even more frightening was that Qiao Yan's eyes were not closed.

Although those eyes are now completely dilated, chaotic, and without any essence, I don't dare to look at them directly, I always feel that it is Qiao Yan's torture of me, torturing why I did this to her, to their mother and son.

If you want to say that I didn't cause this, who would believe it? Can I be at peace with myself?

In the end, Wang Zhengqing reminded me to check the body, and I pulled the platform out, but there was no blood hole in Qiao Yan's waist and abdomen, and there was no blood hole in her whole body.

This is strange, not a serial murder case? Not the murderer before?

Wang Zhengqing also frowned, this is another trouble for us, to some extent, I even hope that Qiao Yan's death is related to the serial murder case, so that our investigation will be much less difficult.

Out of respect for the corpse, I am not a forensic doctor, so I quickly pushed the table into the freezer, and then left with Wang Zhengqing.

Just as we were about to speak, Gu Man suddenly found us, and her face was a little exciting.
