Cheng Cheng's eyes slowly widened: "You mean...... This visitor may have some kind of trick in my wife's hands - blackmail! You're talking about this? ”

"This is where my second hypothesis is needed to support this crime, assuming that your wife has been killed...... Obviously, your wife was coerced and blackmailed in some way, and then she broke up with this former acquaintance, and eventually, a murder of passion broke out...... So, what kind of negotiation is it that the consequences are so serious that it needs to kill people in the end? ”

Cheng Cheng listened quietly, and then he suddenly covered his forehead in annoyance: "I should have thought that I might have missed the last chance to save my wife or catch the criminal!" ”

"Maybe there's still a chance." I thought for a moment, and then said, "Team Cheng, take the time of your marriage to investigate your wife's interpersonal relationships before this, try to contact all the people involved, and submit this list to the Transportation Bureau, investigate the city's recent entry and exit records, and immediately prohibit these people from leaving the city through airports, train stations, bus stations, etc." ”

"Are you sure the suspect might still be in the city?" Cheng Cheng was worried, "We have imposed restrictions on personal freedom without evidence, which is likely to lead to judicial complaints." ”

I sighed in my heart, it seems that Cheng Cheng is also very desperate for the situation of his wife and daughter in his heart, so that his integrity as a police officer has plummeted, and he has begun to suffer from the power in his hands, after all, this is probably the last thing he has.

"Of course I can't be sure." Seeing that Cheng Cheng opened his mouth again, I immediately raised my hand and he didn't interrupt me for the time being, and continued, "But you can say it another way, for example, this case is related to the tragedy of Shinan Hospital, and I think this is the reason why all your requests to the top will be a green light." ”

Cheng Cheng was stunned for a moment, nodded, and then a wry smile appeared on the corner of his mouth: "Let you see you laugh, Mr. Ji, I'...... The heart is very messy. ”

I nodded at him to show that I fully understood, and no one could keep their minds calm in the face of such a devastating blow as the possible loss of his wife and daughter.

Since I have received Cheng Cheng's consulting fee, then I must also be responsible for the end, not to mention, I can now confirm 100% that this incident is the 0.01% real strange thing that I am interested in.

"The survivors of the May 17 crime are now under your control, right?" I stood up and took off a black vest from the hanger next to my desk, in the style of a suit vest, with four hidden pockets to store some of my gadgets - I used to like to wear the kind of military multi-purpose combat vest with a lot of pockets, and the old knife and koi would complain once they saw me, saying that I was too exaggerated, so I asked the tailor Jiang at the entrance of the alley to customize a few of these vests, with a shirt inside, and a windbreaker or coat in autumn and winter...... Well, the detective dress in foreign film and television dramas is really good, and I feel that I also need to pack it a little bit according to this, which may help my cold business.

Seeing me get up, Cheng Cheng also got up from his seat, I put on my vest, buckled the buckle, and said, "I need to see that weird chain with my own eyes first." ”

Twenty minutes later, Cheng Cheng's black Volvo XC90 was parked in a parking space on the left side of the entrance to the Chengnan Police Station.

As soon as I got out of the car, I saw Lao Dao, dressed in a dark brown coat, with a young woman wearing a blue uniform and a white coat, coming forward, throwing the cigarette in her mouth to the ground and stepping on it. Then he introduced me to the other party, "This is a well-known senior private detective in the city, Yoshimitsu." ”

I nodded, and stretched out my hand to the forensic section chief in front of me, who was wearing silver-framed glasses and exuding a cold temperament: "It's been a long time, Section Chief Shen." ”

However, Shen Tangzhi still clasped his arms to his chest and did not mean to shake hands with me: "I'm sorry, I will continue to work in a while, and the red tape will be free." Team Cheng—" She shifted her gaze to Cheng Cheng, "The autopsy room is full of corpses, and I can't keep my hands busy, let's do it as soon as possible, okay?" ”

Cheng Cheng gave me a somewhat embarrassed look, I shrugged, but I didn't care: people in the police system have a natural aversion to professionals like me, in their eyes, my job has nothing to do with detectives, just a swaggering guy like a god, I've long been accustomed to this - I think when I first met Lao Dao, this guy was sure that I was an extremely cunning fraudster for a long time, and it wasn't until we solved a few strange things together that Lao Dao began to smile at me.

Besides, at this time, my attention was completely absorbed by the case, and since this arrogant female forensic doctor did not want to deal with me, I also ended up quiet.

Cheng Cheng saw that the two of us were a little at odds with each other, so he said roundly: "Section Chief Bai is right, the task given above is very tight, then let's hurry up." As he spoke, he walked towards the gate of the police station.

The old knife walked up to me, and I asked him in a low voice, "When you were introducing people just now, you squeezed your eyebrows at me, what's the matter?" ”

The old knife actually had a smile on his face and said, "Guess." ”

I knew how to deal with this guy, so I ignored him directly, quickened my pace, and pretended to step forward to talk to Cheng Cheng, but sure enough, the old knife immediately grabbed me: "Hey, I really don't want to know what's going on?" ”

I still made a gesture to shake him off, thinking that I wouldn't suffocate your big mouth, and said disdainfully: "You like to talk about it or not." ”

"Gotta get it, I'll tell you okay?" The old knife really couldn't hold it back, pulled me and whispered, "I just found out that this Section Chief Shen is actually the cousin of Stinky Fish, and he is not the kind of distant cousin - you say, is this a coincidence?" ”

"What? This iceberg beauty with eyes that is about to glide to the sky is a relative of Li Yi? Cousin? Why does it sound so unreliable? ”

I thought back to the image of Li Yi, who was nicknamed "Koi" on the road with a big gold chain, black super glasses, and a pair of koi carp "flower arms", and the comparison with Shen Tangzhi, the forensic section chief who exuded a repulsive temperament not far in front of me, I couldn't imagine that the two were related.

"This Shen Tangzhi was transferred from Kyoto City to this city last month, and the old Chen before him went in." Old Knife continued.

Lao Chen Yuan is the chief of the forensic section of the Chengnan Branch of the Jinguancheng Police Bureau, and he is an insatiable social moth, and he has cheated me and Lao Dao many times in cooperation before, and I am not surprised that he was arrested.

It turned out that the airborne Shen Tangzhi Shen Section Chief in front of me was replacing Lao Chen's position, I nodded, which also shows why Li Yi never told us that he had such a cousin, after all, it was people's privacy, and there was no direct contact with us, so there was no obligation or need to inform us.

But I thought of another thing: "Hey, did you tell people that we have a strong relationship with Li Yi?" Why do you still give me a look? ”

Lao Dao had a constipated expression: "Don't mention it, it's because she said it that she has this attitude." ”

I let out a "oh", thinking that Li Yi's relationship with his cousin didn't look very harmonious.

Now is obviously not the time to waste time on these chores, so I immediately turned the subject back to the matter at hand: "Having said that, the most incomprehensible point of last night's case is that such a large-scale incident and so many people died, why did the police not receive the news until the morning?" ”

"The police were called by a nurse who went to work at the hospital, but she actually went to transfer shifts with the nurse who worked the night shift, and the time was about 6:50 in the morning. The police arrived five minutes later. The old knife replied.

What Lao Dao said was actually the answer I didn't want to hear the most, because it confirmed another view of my 517 serious case, and this thought has lingered in my mind since I watched those weird live videos that Cheng Cheng brought me.

So I said to Lao Dao in a deep voice: "It seems that this incident is far more serious than I imagined. ”

Lao Dao knew that the "serious" in my mouth did not just refer to the nature of "how many people were killed and injured", his expression was solemn, and he said: "I have also watched those videos, to be honest, even I, a former old policeman who claims to be well-informed, have a chill down my spine when I watch it - what happened on the night of May 17th, why did all those people in Shinan Hospital seem to be evil?" Those things in the video are definitely not something that normal people, even ordinary psychopaths or criminals, can do......"

I bowed my head slightly and said, "According to the video, there were many vicious murders that broke out at almost the same time, how could it not cause chaos when so many thugs suddenly appeared in the Seongnam Hospital? I haven't seen the scene yet, but I dare to assert that there must have been a lot of resistance and struggle left at the scene! This shows that the victims did not give up resistance and wait for death - since a fight broke out with the murderers, how could they be silent? ”

Lao Dao frowned: "I have also thought about this problem, let's assume that all the communication equipment at that time was out of order, and the location of Shinan Hospital is not too remote, as long as someone escapes from the hospital and calls for help, someone can definitely be found to call the police." ”

"Do the police have a report on the inspection of the communication equipment in the hospital?"

"The test report has not yet come out, but I don't think it matters at all what the results of this report are, because no matter how you hypothesize, verify and analyze, many of the strange things in the 517 serious case cannot be explained by common sense."

"I remember a quote, a famous quote from a famous detective." I said to the old knife, "It roughly means: after removing other possibilities, the remaining one, no matter how unreasonable it seems, is still the truth." ”

I didn't wait for Lao Dao to ask questions, and continued by myself: "The most reluctant speculation I want to believe, but the most probable, I am afraid that it will be the truth - on the night of May 17, the people in Shinan Hospital, their minds were all affected by unknown reasons, and these people completely lost their minds, and directly led to the occurrence of the 517 serious case. Why is no one calling the police? Because those victims may not even have the will to ask for help, their resistance is only a physiological traumatic response, not a subjective one. That is to say, in this case, there are actually no victims, in a sense, all these people are criminals, but some people choose to become abusers, while others, unconsciously, become voluntary victims! ”

Lao Dao was obviously shocked by the information in my words, and after a while, he said with a very ugly expression: "What you said reminds me of a very uncomfortable case. The case took place abroad, and the criminals recruited people online who volunteered to be slaughtered for consumption, and the terrible thing is that three volunteers had already been killed before the criminals were finally arrested......"

"That's pretty much it, so we have to hurry, because I don't know if something like the 517 case will happen again."

As we spoke, we passed through the lobby on the first floor of the police station office building, then continued through the courtyard behind the office building, entered another building, and went up the atrium staircase to the third floor to the detention cell of the Seongnam Police Station.
