Luo Chuan looked at Ke Xue and said as if praising him: "Today, your speech is quite simple and concise, not easy." ”

As soon as the words fell, Luo Chuan's phone rang, and it was Director Yang calling.

"Where are you?!" From that hurried voice, it is not difficult to hear that the director is in a very anxious mood now.

"I'm in the office, I'm getting ready to go to you. Xiaoxue, he just told me......"

Before Luo Chuan finished speaking, Director Yang interrupted him and said, "Okay, okay, you don't have to say it." Don't waste time coming to me, if you want to know anything, go and ask yourself. Hurry up to the place where the incident happened, the address of your little police officer already knows, hurry up and meet Guan Shan, and quickly tell me an answer that can make me feel at ease! ”

Hurry, hurry, don't waste time...... These kinds of words kept coming out of Director Yang's mouth, which showed that he was definitely anxious now.

But Luo Chuan asked a little incomprehensibly: "You have already looked for Guan Shan?" This kind of case happened, and Luo Chuan knew about it later than Guan Shan, which made Luo Chuan not quite understand the director's approach.

Director Yang replied anxiously, "Of course! Didn't your little cop tell you what the case was? Fire! It's self-immolation!! Of course, I notified Guan Shan as soon as possible, and asked him to investigate whether it was a group activity organized together by some crazy mental illness! You know, what are our rules? There is not a single case like this! Stop talking nonsense, go quickly! I need you to tell me today that this is nothing more than a fortuitous accident, without any organizational purpose, and there will be no second case! Director Yang hung up the phone after speaking, and Luo Chuan could also realize the seriousness of the matter.

A harmonious social environment requires someone to constantly stifle disharmony in the front. In the peaceful and prosperous world of light, someone needs to isolate the darkness in the dark. Therefore, this unwritten "rule" police know in their hearts, this kind of thing really can't happen.

Without further ado, Luo Chuan pointed at Ke Xue and said, "Follow me." ”

Ke Xue excitedly followed Luo Chuan, and rushed to the scene of the crime with several police cars in the same company.

When he arrived at the place, Luo Chuan saw the two-story building that caught fire from a distance. The fire had blackened the entire building, and three guards had been set up outside, and the scene was very tightly blocked, so that no idle people could get close. There were a few people gathered at the intersection in the distance, and everyone was whispering and guessing who was so unlucky and had such a fire. Firefighters were busy in and out of the billowing smoke, and it seemed that the fire had been extinguished. But at the same time, while extinguishing the fire, all the evidence was destroyed.

Luo Chuan instructed Ke Xue to cooperate with the fire department to see when he could enter the scene, and asked Tian Zhen and several coroners to be on standby at any time to check the situation of the deceased.

Next to an ambulance next to the house, Luo Chuan found Guan Shan.

"Looks like you came much earlier than me! Has this fire just been extinguished? Why is it so certain that a fire that has just been extinguished is self-immolation? Luo Chuan asked.

Guan Shan pointed to a frightened woman in the ambulance and said, "It was the reporter himself." You also know the seriousness of this kind of thing, and your bureau probably found me as soon as you received the report. ”

"Did you ask anything?" Luo Chuan is also very concerned about whether this will be a case of panic deliberately created by some extremists.

Guan Shan shook his head and said, "Not yet." She was so frightened that she couldn't even utter a complete sentence now. At that time, it was not easy to know that the police were called, so it was better to give it a little more time. I learned from the fire police that the person in the house was named Zhang Wen, and the informant Xu Xiaoqing was the wife of Zhang Wen's younger brother Zhang Wu. This house is Zhang Wen's, Xu Xiaoqing said that she saw Zhang Wen self-immolation, but now I don't know if her words can be trusted. Because her mental condition is so bad, it is difficult to tell if her self-righteous imagination appeared in extreme fear. ”

"What about Zhang Wen's younger brother?"

"I heard that it's still outside, I've been contacted, and I should be able to arrive in a while."

At this time, several firefighters who cleaned up the scene to investigate the hidden fire carried out a corpse in a body bag. And shook his head at Luo Chuan, indicating that there was no salvation at all.

Luo Chuan sighed, beckoned Tian Zhen over, pointed to the corpse that had just been carried away, and said, "Your task is to escort him to Xing Lao." What do I want to know most, don't I have to tell you? Luo Chuan smiled and looked at Tian Zhen.

Tian Zhen seemed to be accustomed to this kind of test, and replied as if he endorsed: "Report to Team Luo, you don't need to repeat it." What you want to know most is, of course, whether the deceased died before the fire or after the fire, as a way to dispel ......"

"Ruled out the possibility of his killing. Well, good, got it right, go for it! Luo Chuan snatched Tian Zhen's words, and then immediately walked towards the fire truck.

Luo Chuan found Officer Shang, who was in charge of directing the firefighters, and discussed: "The bureau attaches great importance to this case, if it is already safe inside, can we firefighters not be allowed in again?" Leave it to us to clean up the scene, and we have to find evidence of whether he was self-immolating. ”

Officer Shang is a few years older than Luo Chuan, although he is not always in contact, many cases have also intersected with Luo Chuan. So at this time, he was a little embarrassed and said: "It stands to reason that in this situation, you should never go in." You are not professional in cleaning up the scene, although the house has not been on fire for a long time, but it has burned people to death. The extent of the structural damage inside is still not very clear, what if you go in and out of danger? ”

Luo Chuan said with a smile: "None of our firefighters are afraid of danger, why did our criminal police team start to be timid?" Well, I'll go in after you warriors, and you won't have to worry about me as an amateur. How? ”

Officer Shang also understood Luo Chuan's difficulties, so he immediately sent the experienced boss and second child of the team to take Luo Chuan into the scene.

Ke Xue was next to him, and when he heard Luo Chuan say that he wanted to enter the scene, he also shouted to follow up. Luo Chuan didn't refuse, so he threw Ke Xue a hard hat, and followed the two fire fighters into the small building that had just been baptized by the fire.

The boss walked in the front, and while carefully leading the way, he said to Luo Chuan: "The house has not been burning for too long, but the fire is very big, and basically all of it can be burned out." The deceased was found in the bedroom, and when he was found, he was lying on the bed, and he did not seem to want to run. The fire started in the bedroom, and if he was awake, there was no reason why he couldn't get out. ”

After Luo Chuan came in, he realized that the ferocity of the fire just now was definitely more serious than he imagined. Even though it's been a while since the fire was extinguished, it still seems that the temperature of the fire can still be felt in this space. The wooden furniture and the roof floor were burned by the fire, and the fire extinguisher sprayed, and the "click" sound was still making in the wisps of white smoke between the cold and the heat. This kind of sound was in the fire field of a ruin, so frightened that Ke Xue kept clutching the corner of Luo Chuan's clothes. It was as if if a huge piece of wood would break and collapse and fall on him.

Following the boss to the bedroom, the boss pointed to the bed where there was no longer anything left, and said, "The deceased was here when he was found." When we received the fire alarm, we heard that the informant told the police center that she was downstairs and saw the deceased wandering by the window, as if she had sent her a message saying that she was going to commit suicide. After that, the fire started from the bedroom, and it sounded pretty evil anyway, and we don't know if it was real. ”

Luo Chuan walked to the window and looked down, and could indeed see the location of the ambulance. But he looked up at the burnt knitted fabrics again, and then asked the Boss, "When the fire started, there were curtains in this room, right?" ”

The eldest and second looked at each other, thought for a moment and said, "It should be, right?" I don't know. That thing ignites quickly, and it burns out in an instant. So when we came in, we couldn't see any curtains or curtains. ”

Luo Chuan found a barrel in the corner that had been burned into iron sheets, and habitually said to himself: "Is this what ignites the fire?" Gotta take it back and check it out. ”

Before the eldest and second child could speak, Luo Chuan lowered his head and said, "This scene really looks like that, but why should the bucket be thrown so far?" Did the firefighters touch it while fighting the fire, or did he throw it here from his bed before he died? ”

Ke Xue looked at the boss's slightly surprised expression, smiled awkwardly and said, "Hehe, the two heroes are not strange." As soon as our Luo team arrives at the scene, it will become a little abnormal. He often reasoned about the case by himself, trying to reconstruct the crime scene. Even those of us who follow him every day may not always understand what he is saying. ”

The eldest and second opened his eyes wide and asked in a low voice, "You said crime scene?" Didn't this man commit suicide? ”

Ke Xue mysteriously covered a hand to his mouth and lowered his voice and said, "If he really self-immolated, maybe this case is bigger than a murder case!" That's what our Luo team is here for! ”

The eldest and second suddenly realized, as if they understood what Ke Xue meant.

Luo Chuan stood up at this time and asked, "Do you know if there are other exits to this house?" If the deceased wanted to escape, was there any other place than the gate? ”

The second child quickly replied this time: "Yes, yes, yes!" Just behind the house with a back door. However, there is no back garden in the back, so it seems that the owner of this house rarely uses it. ”

Luo Chuan marked all the suspicious places and left them for the police officers who came in to collect evidence for a while to take away for inspection. Then he said to the second child: "Please take us to the back door to have a look." ”

"Okay."

When I came to the back door, I found that this place was not spared, and it had long been burned by the fire. There was no sign of the gate, and the lock had long since burned out. The boss used tools to open the back door with great difficulty, but as soon as they went out, they saw something not far away that surprised them!

It was a pair of shoes.

Right at the intersection where the back door leads to the path, there are clear footprints where there is dirt. Until the tarmac section, the shoes stopped there, and the footprints were gone.

Ke Xue stared at his big eyes in disbelief and said, "This is ...... Who left this behind? How could a pair of shoes run out of the fire scene on their own! These shoes are fine! ”

When the boss heard this, he immediately denied it and said, "Impossible! As you can see, the lock on this door has burned out, which proves that the door never opened after the fire started! After finishing it seriously, he seemed to reflect the problem in Ke Xue's words. So he corrected with a smile and said, "Besides, no one can run out and run for their lives, how can that shoe slip out of the back door by itself!" If you want me to say, I don't know who doesn't want these shoes! ”

Luo Chuan's face was serious: "The back door has not been opened, and it is the only place where no firefighters have walked." Xiaoxue, hurry up to take pictures and take away these shoes, I want to know who these footprints are and whose shoes they are. ”

"Oh." Ke Xue knew that every time Luo Chuan was extra serious, it was basically when he found important clues. This strange pair of shoes outside the door of the fire scene can indeed be used as the most bizarre evidence at the scene.

After looking at the house again, Luo Chuan basically had a preliminary idea of the deceased in his heart. Before the house caught fire, it was just an ordinary dwelling, with no signs of mental illness or terrorist life.

Out of this house, Luo Chuan thanked the eldest and the second two firefighters, and then took Ke Xue to find Guanshan again. Guan Shan looked at Ke Xue's dirty face and asked with a smile, "What did the two of you find in the fire?" ”

Luo Chuan tilted his head and glanced into the ambulance, and after seeing the woman, he said to Guan Shan: "The firefighters said that when she reported the crime, she said that she had witnessed the deceased setting himself on fire, but judging from what I saw...... The deceased doesn't seem to be such an extreme person. Of course, this is not the final verdict, I just want to tell you my initial feelings, and it would be best if I could confirm it as soon as possible. ”

Guan Shan smiled again: "You don't have to make such a big detour, you just can't wait to ask her now, right?" It's okay, you go ahead and try it, I think her mood has gradually stabilized. ”

Ke Xue wiped her face that was getting darker and darker, and asked Guan Shan mysteriously: "Professor Guan, do you believe in supernatural events?" ”

"For example?" Guan Shan looked at Ke Xue curiously.

Ke Xue took out the evidence bag and held it up in front of Guan Shan's eyes and said, "Shoes, they have become fine shoes!" This house is burned clean inside and out, and such a pair of shoes came out! It's near the back door, it's suspicious! ”

Guan Shan looked at Luo Chuan, Luo Chuan glanced at Ke Xue and said gloomily: "It seems that the laboratory is not very suitable for you, you should resign and go home to write ghost stories." ”

Ke Xue shut up, stopped talking, and walked away with the bag in a huff, preparing to return to the team The first thing to do was to investigate the strange pair of shoes.
