introduction

"Listen to the people inside, I'll count three times, and if you know each other, you will quickly come out for me, otherwise, after three sounds, we will forcibly break the door." Captain Li shouted with a megaphone.

In front of and behind a simple single-story cement house, there are many policemen with guns on standby. Captain Li shouted for a long time, but there was still no movement in the cement room.

"Xiao Chen, after I'll count three later, if that bastard doesn't come out yet, let's rush in together." Captain Lee said to a young policeman beside him.

"Okay." Xiao Chen nodded.

"Team Li, you go up in person, this ......" Vice Captain Huang Yan wanted to speak and stopped.

"What? Am I a man who is greedy for life and afraid of death? That bastard has killed so many people, I'm going to have to catch him with my own hands this time! Captain Li gritted his teeth and said.

The vice-captain had no choice but to keep silent.

"One!"

No response.

"Two!"

Still no response.

"Three!"

There was a dead silence in the audience.

"Up!" As soon as the words fell, Captain Li and Xiao Chen rushed over like arrows from the string and came to both sides of the door.

After the two exchanged glances, Xiao Chen dodged and kicked the door hard, but was not kicked open.

The door is the same old tin wooden door as before, and it is also equipped with the old lock.

Xiao Chen Mao was full of strength and slammed into the door.

The door was slammed open, Xiao Chen rolled on the ground and entered the room, and Captain Li on the side also rushed in with a gun.

Everyone outside held their breath.

A few seconds later, two gunshots suddenly rang out in the room, and someone snorted in pain.

"There's a gun!" Captain Li shouted, followed by a burst of gunfire from inside.

Seeing this, the deputy captain hurriedly led the team forward, but the gunfire stopped as soon as he arrived at the gate.

The deputy captain was anxious and ordered: "A small team will attack and shoot the gunmen on the spot!" ”

But when the police rushed in, they were all dumbfounded.

Captain Li and Xiao Chen were both lying on the ground, not moving, and their bodies were covered in blood.

A piece of the floor of the house was flipped open, revealing a hole with a trail of blood extending into the hole.

What was even more surprising and frightening was that there were several bloody human skins hanging on a shelf in the corner of the room.

body

A small, narrow space, dimly lit by incandescent lamps.

A naked young woman lies on a small simple platform, revealing her back, which is as white as clotted cream.

A butterfly tattoo occupies most of her back, so eerily beautiful.

However, the woman's body trembled uncontrollably, and her eyes were wide open, revealing horror and despair. Because at this moment, her mouth was sealed with duct tape, and her hands and feet were tied to the small long platform.

Suddenly, a pale hand touched her back.

"Hey, hey, hey."

The owner of the hand let out a strange laugh.

At some point, he had an extra scalpel in his hand, which was slowly reaching for the woman.

The woman let out a heart-rending scream. The screams kept running around in this small space, and only stopped when they hit the walls everywhere.

Glancing at the woman who had passed out, the person with the scalpel was stunned for a moment, a hint of panic flashed in his eyes, but then he laughed a few more times and continued the movements of his hands.

Blood trickled down the platform, spilled on the ground, and splattered onto the man's white sneakers.

Red seeps in, creating an eerie picture.

……

It was autumn, and Jiang Tian walked alone through the maple forest.

Seeing the maple leaves falling, scattering into a patch of yellow and red, Jiang Tian's heart was extremely calm.

yes, it's been a long time since anything major happened, so it's been two months. From the end of the summer to the end of the Pang Zhenjun case to the end of the Xin Kan kidnapping case, in just a few weeks, something happened that ordinary people would never encounter in a lifetime.

Is this luck?

No, the arrangement of fate is called powerlessness.

It is very heart-wrenching to lose life in front of your eyes, but you can't keep it.

But now it seems that everything has calmed down.

Time seems to be the best medicine for the mind. Except for Pang Zhenjun, who has not been brought to justice so far, everything else seems to have been repaired, and life seems to be back on track.

"Pang Zhenjun, where are you?" Jiang Tian asked more than once.

Closing his eyes, Jiang Tian seemed to be able to see his father's frowning brows, Shen Sen's red eyes, and the cigarette smoke in the office of the "Pang Zhenjun Case" working group all day long.

And all because of that person, the one who escaped at the gate of the detention center and disappeared for more than two months.

Jiang Tian smiled bitterly, "It seems that it is not yet time for calm." ”

Tired of walking, Jiang Tian sat on a bench, rubbed his tired legs, picked up a newspaper abandoned on the bench next to him, and looked at it a few times.

A line of huge words instantly came into view.

"The skinning maniac who disappeared for three years has reappeared in the world!"

……

"The deceased Zhang Qiao, female, 22 years old, a native of H City, a junior at Z University."

There were more than a dozen policemen sitting in the small conference room, and a middle-aged policeman was making a report on the case. There are no lights on in the room, and on the projection screen is a picture of a naked female corpse, which looks a little eerie.

"At around 6:30 a.m. yesterday, our Public Security Bureau received a report from the public that they found a naked female corpse in the grass on the side of the road when they were jogging in Hongfeng Park. When we arrived at the scene, we saw the female corpse lying in front of her in the grass with a painful expression, so I thought it was a rape and murder case. However, no clothes of the deceased were found at the scene, there were no obvious injuries on the surface of the body, and there were no other signs of trampling and lodging on the grass, so I felt very strange. Later, when the medical examiner turned the body over for examination, it turned out to be ......"

The middle-aged policeman suddenly stopped talking, his eyes were red, and his teeth were clucking.

"What is it?" Shen Sen was also among them, noticing the strange behavior of the middle-aged policeman and asked.

The middle-aged policeman came back to his senses and said "sorry", then clicked the mouse and changed a photo on the projection screen.

The female corpse in the photo is turned with its back facing up, and a large piece of the skin on the female corpse's back can be seen cut off.

The middle-aged policeman looked at this picture with red eyes for a long time before saying: "Later, our forensic doctor determined the cause of death, because the skin on his back was cut off and he died of excessive blood loss, and the deceased had been anesthetized with ether before he died, just like back then......"

……

"What! I'll go! Comrade Shen, you're not kidding, are you? Let me go and investigate the skinning case, what if the murderer also skins me? You're not kind! Also, what the hell is this? Jiang Tian pointed to the middle-aged policeman beside him, "Who is this uncle?" From the time he came in until now, he has looked at me 38 times with malicious eyes, and I seriously suspect that he is the skinning maniac, and when he sees you coming to me for help, he wants to take the opportunity to skin me. ”

"What!" The middle-aged policeman had some anger in his eyes and slapped the table hard.

"Uh, this, Xiaotian, stop your mouth first, listen to me first, okay?" Shen Sen said with a smile and a smile.

"Okay, give you time for a song."

"Okay, let's be serious. This peeling case is quite difficult, I discussed it with your dad and decided to let you participate, and you have been idle for a long time, right? ”

"Stop, I can't listen to it anymore, what do you mean by being idle for a long time, Brother Shen, you want me to experience more cases, and train me to be a pervert, just say it." Jiang Tian said angrily.

"Uh, well, in order to train you into a pervert, I specially ......"

“Stop！ You might as well put it mildly. ”

"Hehe, forget it, no kidding, let me tell you one thing, from now on, you are the special adviser of the Provincial Public Security Department, and this time I specially arranged for you to assist Officer Li Yu, and strive to crack the skinning case as soon as possible."

"This bastard still solves the case? It's pretty much the same! Li Yu said impatiently.

Jiang Tian put away his hippie smile and said to Shen Sen: "Actually, I really wanted to refuse just now, because I was a little afraid. ”

When Li Yu heard this, he laughed disdainfully.
