Volume 1 - The Spring City Tragedy Chapter 1 - The Beginning of Death

In the spring city of northeastern China, the early autumn nights have begun to cool down, and even the streets have quieted down. In the alleys of a bungalow area, a few street lamps emit a faint yellow light, although this light can only cover a small area, but for those who return late, there is a sense of security. Suddenly, the faint light reflected on the wall flickered, and a figure flickered by in the flickering light.

"Da Da Da ......"

The sound of heavy gasps was particularly abrupt in this quiet alley, and a long-haired girl looked back as she ran, and the expression on her face could not be seen in the dim light. There was a figure looming not far behind the girl, and the two were moving forward at a relative distance. Finally, the girl stopped holding on to the street lamp, as if giving up resistance, and the black shadow behind her gradually revealed her true face under the street lamp, with a flirtatious smile on the corner of his mouth, and a pair of glasses in his hand, although he looked ordinary, but his eyes shone strangely, as if he could swallow the darkness around him. He reached out and brushed away the girl's long hair, and a cold, biting chill hit his tentacles.

"Tsk, you don't need makeup to act in ghost movies now."

I saw that the girl's face was pale in the faint light, the corner of one side of the mouth was cracked behind the ear, one side of the jaw was almost broken, leaving only a little skin connection, and even a dark red tongue could be seen from the open mouth, and there were eyeballs protruding from the socket on the other side of the mouth.

"Who the hell are you?"

The girl's voice was hoarse, and a few maggots fell from time to time as her mouth opened and closed, and there was a hint of fear in her tone. The person on the other side seemed to be blind to all this, and saw that his index finger and thumb were interlocked, and the remaining three were put upright on his chest, and he said,

"Haoran Heaven and Earth, Poor Dao Li Yuanchu."

Three days later, in the early morning, people's busy day began again, and the sanitation workers in the community went early to clean up the waste from the garbage dump, when a scream broke the surrounding silence. The police car screamed and drove into the community, and there was a naked male corpse lying on his back next to the garbage point, the organ that judged the sex had been broken, and it was placed in his own mouth, the wound was torn, as if it had been torn off by life, and at the same time, the abdomen was dissected, the large intestine and small intestine were casually drooping outside, and the eyes were bulging and bloodshot, showing the unwillingness and despair of the deceased. The crowd of onlookers had turned pale with fright, some bold men were whispering, and several women were vomiting and running aside, but most were reluctant to leave. Yu Weiguo, the captain of the city criminal police, had his eyebrows twisted into the word "Chuan", and stood silently beside the corpse, while the forensic doctors and trace examiners were busy walking around, flashing lights from time to time, but they could not pull his thoughts back. Suddenly, a trace examiner found something and hurried over to report it.

"Team Yu, found a wallet with the victim's ID card in it."

Yu Weiguo looked at the ID card inside through the physical evidence bag, and the name column was printed with "Wang Min", he was a little familiar with this name, but he never remembered it. At this time, a film police officer who was maintaining the scene happened to catch a glimpse of the photo on the ID card.

"Eh, isn't this a yellow hair?"

It turned out to be him, and Yu Weiguo immediately remembered this person. He is a well-known gangster in the neighborhood, who has been stealing and engaging in thugs for a living, and can be said to be a frequent visitor to the police station, but then he seems to be very close to a certain figure with a face in the city, and it is when the spring breeze is proud, and the film police also said that they have not seen him in the bureau in the past two years. The modus operandi of this case is so cruel, the state of the corpse is the first time Yu Weiguo has encountered it since he became a police officer, and there are no valuable clues after the summary report, it seems that he can only start with Wang Min's interpersonal relationships, Yu Weiguo thought to himself.

On the other side of the city, a high school is in class as usual, and on the podium, the head teacher Shen Jiang is holding a Chinese textbook and reading ancient Chinese, while some of the students below are listening to the lectures and some are daydreaming.

"Li Yuanchu, you translate the paragraph just now."

A boy in a wide school uniform and heavy glasses stood up, stumbled to translate the text into the vernacular, and sat down. The teacher pointed out a few mistakes in his translation and continued to explain the text, while the boy turned his head to look out the window.

"Hey, hey."

The classmate next to him threw a note across the aisle, Li Yuanchu opened it and looked, "Let's play football together in physical education class", he looked at his old friend Guo Qi and nodded. After a long wait, the class finally passed, and the students talked to each other during recess, with the girls talking about their idols and the boys talking about the girls. Li Yuanchu has two friends in the class, Guo Qi's family affairs are better, and he is not very serious about studying, his life goal is to go to the art school to pick up girls; Yu Bin is Yu Weiguo's son, influenced by his father since he was a child, and he was inspired to become a police officer to pick up his father's class, and his academic performance is also among the best in the school. Guo Qi talked about the beautiful girls in other classes as he did every day, and Li Yu and the two echoed with each other, but Zhang Chao, the "express" in the class, came over mysteriously.

"Have you heard? Just this morning, a dead body was found outside the railway complex, and according to my father, it was horribly dead. “

"Please, where do we know?"

"That's right, the news isn't as fast as my dad."

This sentence has become his mantra, and he has said it for three years in high school, but it also confirms this sentence very well, and he is the first to know all the news in the class. This time the incident happened near his home, so Zhang Chao's father was also the first reporter to arrive at the scene and also told him about it. The three of them listened to Zhang Chao's description of the scene, and Yu Bin was a little interested in this case, because for this city, this kind of bloody case is too rare. The physical education teacher in the afternoon was not sick, which released the students who were in a state of high-pressure study, and the case only became a small topic for them to discuss, after all, the main task of the students is to study, but Li Yuanchu, who was playing football with his classmates in the playground, seemed to have something on his mind, and ran out of bounds by himself a few times.

Compared with the calm of the school, the criminal police team is busy here, Yu Weiguo is in a hurry this day, Wang Min's interpersonal relationship investigation is unexpectedly deadlocked, this kind of street gangster interpersonal relationship is very complicated, and there are many enemies. The forensic doctor concluded that the deceased died between midnight and midnight, but after careful investigation, all the suspects had clear alibi evidence, and the investigation team had no choice but to change the direction of the investigation to hire a murderer.

In the police station's morgue, Yu Weiguo asked forensic doctor Zhao Lixin to re-examine the body in the hope of discovering new evidence. However, the corpses were badly damaged, and strangely enough, the wounds were mostly torn. The medical examiner pointed out that the shape of the wound was caused by the use of external pulling, and that the wound was caused by large mechanical pulling and animal bites. There were no large beasts in the city at all, there were no traces of large machinery entering and exiting the site, and even the wounds of the corpses did not leave any valuable clues. The physical evidence department found a train ticket from Lijiang City to Chuncheng City in the deceased's wallet, and the time of the ticket showed that the deceased arrived in Chuncheng at 7 p.m. and died at midnight, which was less than five hours, so what enemy could the deceased meet? Yu Weiguo also seized this breakthrough, and in the afternoon, he asked his two investigators to rush to Shenjiang City immediately, and sent an application to the Songjiang City police for assistance. At the same time, the case has been rapidly broadcast in the city's newspapers and television stations, and while people lamented the cruelty of the modus operandi, they did not care about the death of this scoundrel, and some people even clapped their hands when talking about it, and even the city bureau, which would immediately exert pressure after every major murder, was silent, as if this person's death was floating in front of people's eyes like air, and no one cared. But Yu Weiguo, who has been a police officer for more than 30 years, vaguely feels that things will not end with the death of this person, and there may be the next deceased, which makes him feel very bad.

After school, Li Yuanchu said goodbye to his two friends and returned to his home, where his mother Zhong Jingzhen was cooking and his sister was watching TV on the sofa. Seeing Li Yuanchu come back, the little girl ran over excitedly, called her brother loudly, and then pulled him to sit down, just leaning on him and watching cartoons. The girl laughed happily from time to time, Li Yuanchu just silently touched his sister's hair, and the smell of vegetables came from the kitchen.

"Yanyan, let your brother wash his hands, let's eat."

A beautiful voice came from the kitchen, it seemed that the meal had been cooked, and Li Yuanchu sat at the dining table after washing his hands. At this time, my mother came out of the kitchen, holding a large plate of fried dried tofu in her hand, although she was in her forties, she remained in her twenties in both face and figure, as if God had forgotten to take away her time. And his sister's appearance is like that printed in a mold with his mother, but this child who is about ten years old can only smile stupidly, and even the chopsticks are Zhong Jingzhen's hand in her hand before she knows to eat food. This situation was discovered when she was three years old, and she originally thought that it was caused by injuries when she was chased and killed by the Li family when she was a child, but after the inspection of Li Yuanchu's eldest brother Yang Yuanhui, it was found that Li Junyan's soul was incomplete, and one soul and two souls were lost in the three souls and seven souls. At this moment, outside the morgue of the forensic medical department of the city bureau, the moonlight shone on a large poplar tree, casting a mottled black shadow on the ground, and in the black shadow stood a figure with long hair and red clothes, her eyes staring at the direction of the morgue, as if to see through the wall.
