Chapter 9 Remainder V
It was already two o'clock in the morning after the meeting, the table was in a mess, and everyone was almost finished, Hu Lai sat at the table with his laptop in front of him, the song "Long Live Friendship" in his headphones, and looked intently at the lyrics scrolling on the screen.
"Goodbye, friend
The laughter of the past comes to the diary
Remembering old friendships
Crying and laughing on campus
β¦β¦β
Guo Bai walked down the stairs while wearing a coat, and what he saw was the scene of a woman listening to music in front of the computer, and he suddenly remembered her soft, warm hug a few days ago.
He walked around behind her, bent down to look at the lyrics scrolling on the computer, and pulled away the headphones she clipped to her ear, "You've been listening to this song since the meeting, what did you hear?" β
The woman didn't answer him, but her body collapsed, and after a while, she turned around and showed an embarrassed smile, "That, I ......"
Guo Bai stared at her for a long time, then pulled out a chair and sat down beside her, "Come on, if you have any questions, you can ask me." β
"I ......" Yu Wu looked directly at the man in front of her, she didn't know where she was or what she was going to do, the man in front of her seemed to be quite reliable......
"I'm Guo Bai."
"Guo Bai? In vain? Yu Wu tilted his head and laughed.
She stood up, worried that staying any longer would make him doubt herself, and said, "Well, I'll go home first, bye-bye." She waved her hand and walked out the door.
Guo Bai looked at her back, wanted to speak and stopped, but didn't say a word after all.
Two years ago, the "ogre case" that caused a sensation in the country occurred in Hope City, and Hu Lai, a senior at the police academy, became one of the victims and one of the survivors. Another survivor is the genius female forensic doctor Beibei.
It was cold outside, and Yu Wu couldn't stop sneezing, and the streets were empty in the early morning, and there was nothing. She didn't know where it was, let alone how to get home, the temperature was dropping more and more, and the coat couldn't withstand the cold at all.
It's been a long time, there is no memory, there is no place to return, every time I go to some new place, meet some new people, those people will look at her with strange eyes, and then, call her - Hu Lai.
She remembered her name, but she didn't know where she came from or what she was going to do.
Yu Wu sat down on the cold bench on the side of the road, looked at this strange scene, and gradually shrunk himself into a ball, fell crooked on the bench, and fell asleep.
The headlights shone on the woman, Guo Bai turned off the fire, sat in the cab, pursed his lips and looked at Hu Lai, who was sleeping on a bench in a ball, didn't he say go home? How did you fall asleep here.
"Come, come, wake up, and if you go to sleep again, you'll catch a cold." He bent down and pushed her shoulders.
Yu Wu only felt that someone was shaking herself, and opened her eyes in a daze, and what caught her eye was the man who spoke to her not long ago, she sat up half-awake, and rubbed her dizzy eyes, "Hmm...... ...... in vain"
Guo Bai was not very accustomed to this new title, he tested the temperature of her forehead, and asked with concern: "Aren't you going home?" How cold it is here......"
Yu Wu's eyes were a little red, she hugged his neck, and the whole person got into his warm embrace, crying, "I don't know the way, I'm so scared ......"
"Come on?"
"I'm not Hu Lai, I'm Yu Wu."
Guo Bai's body stiffened for a moment, and several thunderbolts exploded above his head, followed by him, he almost subconsciously hugged the woman in his arms.
Yu Wu, one of the victims of the "Ogre Case", is a friend of Hu Lai from childhood to adulthood, and he is also a ...... The living man that Babe dissected......
"Yu ...... Yu Wu ......"
"White, I'm so scared, I'm so cold, you can take me home......" She sobbed under her breath, hot tears sliding into his clothes and across the skin of his neck.
He tightened his arms suddenly, and comforted her in a trembling voice, "It's okay, it's all over, I won't be afraid, I won't be cold, I will protect you, no one can hurt you anymore......"
Guo Bai was a little glad that he let Zhang Lele follow Hu Lai for a few days, otherwise he really couldn't figure out where her home was, Yu Wu was already asleep in the passenger seat, breathing evenly, and his chest was rising and falling regularly.
He slowly reached out and wanted to touch her, but withdrew his hand like an electric shock the moment he touched her. No, she is not Yu Wu, that girl is dead, and the current Yu Wu is Hu Lai's personality split out of the powerful stimulation, this world does not belong to her, and she does not belong to this world.
When Yu Wu returned home and slept peacefully, it was already four o'clock in the morning, Guo Bai looked at the person who was holding the corner of his clothes, and sighed helplessly.
There were many books on Hu Lai's bookshelf, and the man's fingertips swiped over the titles of one book after another, and finally stopped at a copy of "The Kite Runner".
The sunlight squeezed in through the cracks in the curtains and fell on Guo Bai's fingertips, he took out the book and opened it casually. There's a pink note in itβ
If you don't cooperate well, don't want your sweetheart baby motorcycle
Recipient: Hu Lai.
In an instant, he understood why, a few days ago, only one night, Hu Lai broke into the police force like a stranger, behaving and doing things, and his words and words contradicted his previous image everywhere.
That person is very similar to Ah Yue, the victim of the "Ogre Case" in the data, who began to mix in society at the age of fifteen, deviant, and absurd.
Yu Wu was still sleeping soundly, he put the note back, and his eyes fell on a line of words drawn with a black pen - "For you, thousands of times." β
The tragic appearance of the past was reproduced in front of my eyes, snow-white flesh, blood, iron chains, axes that fell to the ground, brains splashing everywhere, and the woman's hoarse cry and hot tears.
Guo Bai put the book back in its place, walked gently to her side, and sat down on the edge of the bed. He took her left hand, taking advantage of the little sunlight, trying to make out the scar on her wrist.
"Hmmm......"
Yu Wu sighed, gradually opened his eyes, and after a moment of stunned, he smiled sweetly, "Baibai, you are still there." β
"Wake up, it's nine o'clock in the morning." Guo Bai let go of her hand and helped her put the pillow well, so that she could be more comfortable when she leaned against the head of the bed.
Yu Wu sat down on the head of the bed, looked around curiously, and asked, "Is this my home?" β
Guo Bai's Adam's apple moved up and down, he suppressed the sadness in his heart, and tried to make himself look natural, even if he knew that this was just a split personality, but as soon as she looked over, he couldn't help but think of that fresh and beautiful life, remembering her singing "Evening on the outskirts of Moscow" on the podium, remembering her smile, and blending into the beauty of the bright sunshine in the classroom.
"Haven't you been home?" His voice was hoarse.
Yu Wu shook his head slowly, "I don't know why, my body doesn't seem to belong to me, I don't know where I am, and I don't know the direction of home." β
"That'...... Where did you stay before? β
"Stay where I am, or walk with people who seem to know me, but they always take me to some uncomfortable place, with blood, corpses, and a lot of busy people."
Guo Bai thought for a while and clenched her hand, "You told them, aren't you Hu Lai, are you Yu Wu?" β
"No, that's weird." Yu Wu puffed out his cheeks.
Guo Bai breathed a sigh of relief, it seems that he has not found anything about split personality yet, "I can't say to anyone in the future, you rest first, and I'll come back to see you." β
Yu Wu rushed out almost instantly, hugged his thighs, and didn't let him leave, "Don't go." β
"Well, I still have to go to work." He could only be patiently appeased.
"I don't, you won't come back if you're gone." She is unusually stubborn.
"I'll be back, I'll be back when I get off work."
"I won't, in vain, you don't want me......"
The woman said she would come, crying so much that the pear blossoms brought rain, and I felt pity. Guo Bai sighed, sat down again, and helped her wipe away her tears, "Then, do you want to experience Hulai's life?" β
"Hulai? Is that the one who dominates my body? She immediately suppressed her crying.
ββ¦β¦ Sort of. β
"As long as you can be with Baibai, anyone's life can be." Yu Wu laughed, his eyebrows crooked, and grabbed his arm.
Although Yu Wu didn't know where she came from or where she was going, she still had a set of aesthetic standards for clothing, she pointed to Ayue's clothes in the wardrobe, and made an evaluation that made Guo Bai laugh for two minutes, "Exaggerated, ugly." β
Guo Bai leaned against the door with her arms, watching her pull out a white sweater and corduroy khaki A-line skirt from a pile of clothes with interest, she took the clothes and pushed Guo Bai out, and closed the door, "Baibai, don't peek." β
"Who's going to peek." The corners of Guo Bai's mouth rose, and he sat obediently in the living room, waiting for this sister to clean herself up, and the two of them went to the police force together.
When I arrived at the police force, it was already half past ten, and after last night's search, things had basically taken shape.
The deceased was killed by the murderer in an ether stuporium when he was out to blow the wind, and then transported to the second floor in a gift bag from Santa Claus.
If Zhao Mingguang was telling the truth, then when he entered the room, the murderer should have been hiding in a corner of the room, but if Zhao Mingguang was the murderer, then his testimony could no longer be trusted.
"Can you determine the source of the murder weapon?" Guo Bai asked Yin Yuanyang, who was standing next to the character relationship map.
Yin Yuanyang shook his head and replied, "This kind of dagger is easy to buy, and there is nothing special about it. There were no fingerprints on the murder weapon, and we didn't find gloves at the scene. β
"Whose fingerprints were taken on the door?"
"After comparison, it is Zhao Mingguang's fingerprints in the villa, Zhao Mingguang said that he once entered the room to find hangover medicine, and saw Li Guang lying in the bathtub, it may have been left at that time, that room is his bedroom, so it is not unusual to have his fingerprints."
"There is another suspicion," Zhang Lele posted a photo of the window, "We carefully investigated the scene, and if we want to go up to the second floor, in addition to taking the stairs, we can only climb up from the window, and the murderer must carry a big living person to climb up, which is difficult for ordinary people to do, so, boss, I doubt this Wu Yong." β
Zhang Lele took a whiteboard marker and drew a circle around Wu Yong's photo, "This Wu Yong is a fitness coach, and Li Guang is from a gym, the two have used to do it because of guests, and this Wu Yong has been pursuing Han Kawaii, and he is very suspicious." β
