Chapter 19: The Female Corpse in the River (6)

A female corpse is floating face down in the garbage-filled river.

Even though it was already November, there was still an indescribable smell that challenged the limits of my sense of smell, and I don't know if it was the garbage or from her......

Not only that, even if I can't see her face clearly because of the posture of this corpse, this is still not to be confused with the mysterious scene of solving the case on TV.

It's like......

Your brain determines for itself that this is real and not fictional, so the fear response it gives is like a reflex and is not under your control.

It took me a lot of effort to change the phrase "" that was about to blurt out to a growl, and my facial expression even distorted for a moment.

"Ah!!h

In a few moments, my back was covered with a soothing chest.

Shen Yu opened his coat and wrapped me into his arms, and then covered my eyes with one hand, just like in that dream.

The other hand ran around my coat and patted me gently, "It's okay." ”

We kept doing this, and no one moved.

I kept making mental hints to myself until the first wave of visual impact slowly faded, and I carefully removed Shen Yu's hand and took another look at the corpse in the river.

Her state reminds me of a ghost movie I once watched.

is also like this, facing down, representing great resentment, and the later plot in the movie, I remember that the female corpse was unwilling, and as a result, she cheated the corpse to take revenge.

I shuddered at the supply of my own brain.

Shen Yu used two hands instead, and surrounded me a little tighter, and I could clearly feel the frequency of his heartbeat.

Puff, puff, beating very regularly.

It was no different than usual, as if what he saw now was not a corpse, but something ordinary.

I secretly admired his extraordinary courage, and I didn't want to show my cowardice in front of him.

My eyes wandered around the river, and finally slowly moved to the corpse, and at this glance, I finally knew why she was running in such a strange way in my dream.

Her hands, tied behind her back with a black rope, loomed in the pile of garbage, and because of this, she couldn't see anything else.

"Shen Yu, let's call the police."

"Okay."

I have to say that the efficiency of the city's police is quite good, and in about seven or eight minutes, several police cars came here.

Probably for fear of destroying some clues at the scene, they did not drive the car onto the path on the riverbank.

Everyone has a very heavy expression on their faces, and I can understand it, after all, the good law and order in Y City is well-known throughout the country, and it turned out that it didn't happen, but when it happened, there was a personal homicide.

Put on shoe covers, and the police walked into this place one after another, and the next thing was to surround the scene, take pictures, and collect evidence.

We were greeted by a policewoman who was a little older than me, holding a notebook in her hand, probably wanting to ask us for details.

However, the moment she saw Shen Yu, her originally expressionless face immediately seemed to bloom like a chrysanthemum.

"Hello, I'm Bai Zhixin, a policeman from the Y City Public Security Bureau, you can call me Xiaoxin, and I'll be responsible for making a record for you."

Shen Yu glanced at me, didn't hold the policewoman's outstretched hand, just nodded at her to show that she knew.

She withdrew her hand with some embarrassment, and picked up the pen tucked in the notebook to cover it up.

"Name?"

"Shen Yu."

Officer Bai picked up his pen and brushed the floor in his notebook and began to record.

"Age."

“26。”

It turned out that Shen Yu was four years older than me, and I suddenly realized that I didn't seem to know anything about him except his name.

Aside from some mysteries, such as why he appeared in my dreams, or why he knew my home address, I was no different from this policewoman.

I've known him for a few days, but I still don't know some basic information about him.

"Tell me about your family."

Officer White's voice pulled me back from my thoughts, but what was the situation now? Do you need to ask the information of the parties in such detail to make a record?

Shen Yu was silent for a moment, and then nudged me, who was standing beside him, forward.

"She was the one who found the body, and I think it would be more appropriate for you to ask her." Pushed forward by inertia, I thought a little sadly, am I being used as a shield!

Only then did Officer Bai cast his eyes on me as if he were charity, looking up and down.

When she wasn't paying attention, I rolled my eyes, and I was a nymphomaniac when handling the case, which really damaged the image of the police force.

To me, her voice was not so gentle, as if she was repeating what she had just said mechanically.

"Name?"

"Jiang Meng."

"Age?"

“22。”

"Mobile phone number."

“1582xxxxxxx”

"Tell me how you found the body."

Why do you still favor one over the other, I was suddenly a little dissatisfied: "Hey Xiaoxin, why don't you ask about my family situation?" ”

Probably not expecting me to call him by his first name, she pinched the tip of her pen and tapped it warningly on her notebook: "Be serious, please call me Officer Bai." ”

I pretended to be confused: "Didn't you just let us call you Xiao Xin?" turned his face so quickly and didn't recognize people. ”

Officer Bai was slapped in the face by his words, and he didn't know how to refute it for a while, but his face became more and more difficult to look at.

The atmosphere froze a little for a while.

Just as I was thinking about whether to ask someone else to make a note for us, my left hand was caught lightly by someone unexpectedly.

I turned my head, and Shen Yu said to me with a doting and helpless expression: "Good, don't make trouble, tell Officer Bai what happened." ”

This makes me extremely comfortable!

I immediately changed my attitude and told the story with the satisfaction of a cat that had stolen a fishy thing.

Officer Bai glared at me angrily, but because of his duties, he still had to pick up the pen again and record what I said.

"Let's see if there's any problem."

I quickly skimmed through the paper, made sure there were no questions, and signed my name to the person being questioned.

Officer Bai put away the record book, and finally glanced at Shen Yu before turning around and leaving reluctantly.

I was a little aggrieved, I thought she would give me another psychological counseling or something, after all, it was the first time I encountered this kind of thing, so she was not afraid that she would leave a psychological shadow on the client?

The police officers at the scene were busy with their own affairs, and Shen Yu and I seemed a little redundant.

It didn't take long for the woman's body to be recovered and placed on a relatively flat ground.

Since her hands were still clasped behind her back, she was lying on her side again.

Only then did I really see that it was not the black rope that I thought was binding her, but the black stockings that women often wear.

The late autumn weather has been invaded by cold air, and I went out today with a tweed coat, but this female corpse only has a thin gray dress.

The smooth legs of the lower body can be seen at a glance.

Two forensic policemen were conducting a preliminary examination on her, and it wasn't long before the voice of the older male policeman rang out.

"The deceased had two contusions on his head and a strangulation on his neck, and it was preliminarily concluded that he died from drowning, and the specific details will not be known until further autopsy."

Died of drowning? I was a little surprised, that is, she was thrown into the river with her hands tied behind her back, and then drowned?

Thinking of the woman who spit out a lot of water from one mouth in her dream, what did she do that was intolerable to be treated in such a cruel way!

Suddenly, anger filled my entire chest, and I raised my foot and wanted to walk towards the location of the corpse, but was grabbed by Shen Yu.

Oh, I forgot, both of us haven't let go of our hands since the beginning, but it's more appropriate to use the word "pinch" than to hold my hand.

Shen Yu glanced at me with some solemnity, probably a little surprised by my actions: "What are you going to do?" ”

"I'd like to check it out."

I want to see if she's the same as I had dreamed of now! I want to see if what she fixed on her face at the last moment was hatred or despair! I still want to go and see, how about it...... to help her find her killer......

Shen Yu hesitated for a moment and glanced at the direction where the forensic doctor was: "You have done a good job, without you, maybe she will stay in this place for a long time, even until it rots, and she may not be discovered." ”

Shen Yu's words woke me up at once, the purpose of my coming here is to confirm some conjectures in my heart, and now the woman lying on the ground silently is confirming my guesses one by one in this tragic way.

Shen Yu walked closer in my direction, and still didn't let go of his grip on me: "Let's leave the rest to the police." ”

I let out a long breath, yes, I can only find her because she fell into my dream, but the matter of catching the murderer must be left to a professional.

I held back my impulses, and I couldn't be reckless lest I do anything to ruin the scene.

However, my actions have been completely watched by a policeman crouching next to the corpse.

He was about the end of his conversation with the medical examiner, got up, and walked straight to me.

On the way over, he asked Officer Bai just now, and his tone was a little stern: "What's the matter?" Finished with the transcript? ”

Officer Bai seemed to be a little afraid of him, and when he heard the question, he replied "yes" in a low voice, completely losing the arrogant appearance he had just haught.

When the male policeman heard this, his brows furrowed even tighter: "After the transcript is done, you can leave the party here and ignore it?" ”

Officer Bai didn't even dare to make a voice this time, but lowered his head.

And the people around her all looked strange, and no one said a word for her, and they were still busy doing their own things.

It didn't take long for this upright male policeman to stand in front of us, first glance at Shen Yu scrutinically, and then set his eyes on me.

After saluting me, he took out his ID from his chest pocket: "Hello, I am the head of the criminal investigation team, Lin Xiao." ”
