Chapter 6: Black Goat (1)
"Whew." Wen Xuan fell headlong on the bed again.
He looked at the pitch-black ceiling and rubbed his sweat-soaked hair, which made him feel uncomfortable.
But at the moment, his mind was full of scars from the ghost of Fang Cai.
Strangulation, bruises, burns from sulfuric acid corrosion, and...... The flat cut at the base of his thigh resembles the marks of a dismembered corpse in a chainsaw massacre.
Just as he pondered these clues, which no one else knew, a screeching phone suddenly rang in the silent room.
His mind was jumbled up by the sudden noise, which was even more uncomfortable than the sticky sensation coming from his head at the moment.
Picking up his phone, he glanced at it and found that it was Fang Yuan calling him.
As soon as he connected it, he heard Fang Yuan's anxious voice coming from the phone: "Wenxuan, are you okay?" I heard Tang Tang say that something happened to you and you were taken away by the police, and you couldn't get through to call you, and you weren't there when you went to the police station. Where are you now? I'll go to you right away. ”
Wen Xuan rubbed his eyes, which were starting to dry and ach due to lack of sleep, and looked at the dozen or so missed calls displayed on the screen of his mobile phone, which seemed dazzling, and probably understood something in his heart.
If there is progress in the case, Fang Yuan and Xu Lai should watch the surveillance video again, instead of taking care of their own affairs as now.
So, is my guess wrong?
Wen Xuan rubbed his forehead, logically speaking, there could be no problem, whether it was logic or method, what he reasoned out was the way to destroy the evidence to the greatest extent.
But if there is still no clue about the progress, then there must be something wrong.
So Wen Xuan immediately sat up from the bed, hung up the phone, and casually put on a windbreaker and rushed to the police station.
When he arrived at the police station, he saw Fang Yuan standing at the door waiting for him, as soon as he saw him, Fang Yuan ran over anxiously and said, "Are you okay?" There was no news all day. ”
Wen Xuan looked at Fang Yuan and said bluntly, "Tell me how the case is going." My things are trifles. ”
Fang Yuan was stunned for a moment and said, "Okay, according to what you told me this morning, I told Xu Lai right away, and today the two of us watched the video of all the homeless gathering places two weeks ago. But nothing was gained at all. You say, is there something wrong with the step? ”
Wen Xuan followed Fang Yuan into the monitoring room, thinking about all the possible psychological activities of the criminal, and after Fang Yuan finished speaking, he was silent for a while and said: "At present, our biggest problem is that the scene of the first crime is not established, so I can only analyze the division through the only few clues, so I can't be sure that my conjecture is correct." Sorry this is my question. I'm so arrogant. ”
At this time, Xu Lai came out of the monitoring room with his eyes rubbed, and just heard Wen Xuan's words, he hurriedly said: "Don't say that, at least we didn't think about the murderer going to find the homeless man to help us send the courier at the beginning." At least you gave us some clues. ”
"Clue?" Wen Xuan looked at Xu Lai suspiciously.
At this time, Xu Lai pulled Wen Xuan into the office and said: "At the beginning, we checked whether there were missing persons and whether anyone had bought a strong acidic solution, after all, these two points are obvious clues, although the inventory is difficult, it is better than having no clue."
But you see, three weeks after the incident, we've looked up the statistics on missing people, and the data on the purchase of sulfuric acid, but so far we haven't made any very effective progress.
Fortunately, the reasoning you asked Fang Yuan to tell me gave me a clue, and after we checked the possibility you said, we found that there was no disappearance of the homeless man. We speculate that it is possible that the murderer asked the courier to pick up the parcel and deliver it?
Although we have asked every courier who signed for the delivery of the murderer's parcel at the beginning whether the parcel they sent was picked up by them, they all said that they could not remember clearly, which is also one of the suspicions.
In addition, even if the signature and other information are left on the courier information, the information left by the murderer has been determined to be anonymous, which we have determined at the beginning. However, since we investigated that there were no abnormalities among the people who went to the courier company to send the mail, we decided to check the possibility of picking up and shipping the parcel at the door first.
So Fang Yuan and I thought that we could find the location of the extremely delivery courier on the same day, so we stayed up all night to check the distance information of the relevant courier on the same day. ”
Just when Xu Lai was excitedly about to pull Wen Xuan to continue to tell them what they had gained, at this time, Wen Xuan suddenly raised his head and looked at him and said with an anxious expression: "No." Quick, go to that address you found out. With that, he immediately turned around and ran towards the garage.
When Xu Lai saw Wen Xuan's anxious appearance, he seemed to react as well, and hurriedly ran over with Wen Xuan.
Fang Yuan looked at the two who had disappeared, looking a little overwhelmed.
At this time, Xu Lai turned around and shouted at him, "Why are you stunned? Hurry up! ”
"Oh. Wait for me. ”
In the car, Wen Xuan began to panic inexplicably after listening to the sending address that Xu Lai and Fang Yuan had verified, he didn't know why he suddenly had such an inexplicable feeling.
He felt like a prey in a trap now, or a clown manipulated by a script.
He......
"Okay, East Avenue is here, I'll take a look at the address." Xu took a look at his notebook, looking around at the names of the communities that matched the ones in the notebook, and at this time, Wenxuan's eyes also focused on the notebook.
"Alas. Where. Winshare, you ...... There, Fang Yuan, let's hurry over. After Xu came to walk alone to the community that might be the scene of the crime, he hurriedly beckoned Fang Yuan to follow.
The dimly lit corridors, the old cement stairs, and the aisles full of small advertisements all reveal the long history of this community.
Because it was late at night, the whole neighborhood was quiet at the moment, and with the dim lighting, it looked more and more like a scene from a horror movie.
Walking to the door of the room recorded in Xu Lai's notebook, Wen Xuan waited quietly for Xu Lai, and then said to him, "Have you brought plastic wrap?" Let's take a fingerprint first. ”
At this time, he found that Xu Lai had already put on gloves and covered the doorknob with plastic wrap.
Then I took out a sealant and put the plastic wrap in it.
Wen Xuan looked at Xu Lai, his gaze at Xu Lai made Xu Lai a little flustered, and he asked in a low voice, "Why do you look at me like this?" ”
Wen Xuan shook his head: "It's okay, by the way, did you check if this residential building is for rent before you came?" ”
Xu Lai nodded and said, "This kind of old-fashioned residential building will basically be rented, what's wrong?" ”
Wen Xuan said in a deep voice: "Then have you checked whether this household has been rented out?" Who is the head of the household? Who are the tenants? You should have a record, right? ”
Xu Lai pondered for a moment, thought for a while, and nodded.
After Wen Xuan saw Xu Lai's answer, he took out a pair of gloves from his pocket, put them on, and gently slammed the door.
Although he used a lot of force to slam the door, the door of the old-fashioned residential building was an iron door after all, so the sound was much louder than the security door.
The knock on the door echoed in the empty hallway, and the voice-activated lights came on so suddenly.
At this time, Wen Xuan and the others saw that the original door was not locked, and just when Xu Lai took his fingerprints, the door had already been opened. However, because they were worried about some problems, they had been tiptoeing and did not dare to make a sound, resulting in the voice-activated light not being triggered, so they did not find that the door was actually hidden.
Pushing open the door, Wenxuan was also in a pitch-black room, and a foul smell came to his nose.
Wen Xuan's brows furrowed tightly after smelling this smell, and he turned his head to look at the two people with the same solemn expressions and said, "The smell of corpses." In terms of the intensity of the smell, the corpse had reached the point of moderate decomposition at the very least. Coupled with the recent drop in weather temperatures, we couldn't determine the exact time until we saw the body. Xu Lai, you quickly dispatch the police to block the scene. Fang Yuan, you call Sister Lin Xi and ask them to come over with basic inspection equipment. ”
At this time, Wen Xuan noticed that Xu Lai's expression was a little hideous, and then Wen Xuan saw him slap the wall fiercely.
He was annoyed and angry at his powerlessness.
At this moment, Wen Xuan calmly looked at the dark room in front of him, quietly waiting for their arrival.
After all, only when the source is found can the evil be brought in, and for Wen Xuan, everything has just begun.
