A thin old man was lying on a bed in the emergency room, with a shackle around his neck, and the ECG monitor showed that everything was normal.

When the old man was hanging himself from a tree at the head of the village, someone happened to pass by, otherwise he would have died.

When we came to the ward, the old man had already woken up, he squinted at the majestic Liu Da standing in front of him, his eyes showed a look of timidity and fear, and finally, muddy tears flowed from his yellow eyes, perhaps his throat was injured by the rope, and his voice was very dry: "I did it, I made it." After saying that, he closed his eyes and kept sighing, and the heart rate of the ECG monitor was obviously rising.

Liu Da glanced at me, showing a smug smile, as if everything was under his control, I blinked, indicating that it was not the time for him to interrogate, but Liu Da ignored me, his face became majestic, and he began to roar at the old man: "You first tell me about this girl today." ”

The old man suddenly opened his eyes again, and turned his head with difficulty: "Today? I really didn't do what I did today, I know that the little girl from the Orchid family disappeared yesterday, but it was definitely not what I did, I have already done something hurtful once, how can I do it a second time? I just after the Chinese New Year the year before last, the little girl named Xuanxuan in the village had brain surgery and became stupid, I tricked her to my house and gave her candy to eat, and then I got lustful and did bad things, the little girl kept screaming in pain, I was afraid that the matter would be revealed, so I covered her mouth, and I accidentally covered it to death, I was really scared later, there was really no way, so I threw it into the ancient well. Early this morning, your police came to me to go down the well to fish for something, my soul was scared, and I had a premonition that something was going to happen, so I deduced that there were ghosts in the ancient well, and I refused to go down, otherwise your bid of 3,000 yuan was still quite high. But in the afternoon, I heard that you picked up the bones, and I thought that this matter must not be contained, so it is better to hang yourself. ”

Liu Da didn't change his face, he was still very angry: "One thing is one thing, how can you explain the children of the Orchid Family?" ”

The old man closed his eyes in pain again: "Swear to the sky, I really didn't do it, the orchid family and my ancestors are still relatives." ”

Liu Da ignored him and pulled me out of the door: "Do you believe that he is?" I think he can't escape both. ”

"I believe in Him." I'm confident because I trust my instincts, "It's all here, there's no need for him to lie anymore, anyway, one foot is already on the execution ground, and it's not far from the cemetery." ”

"Lies! You people who are engaged in technology are too merciful to even distinguish lies, you don't know how cunning criminals are, the so-called can't shed tears if you don't see a coffin, do you understand? "Liu Da seems to be very angry, the captains of the criminal police are like this, jealous and hateful, I understand them, otherwise why would they be passionate about dealing with criminals? He turned his head angrily and said to Xiao Zhang, "Lie when you die, Xiao Zhang, handcuff him, you keep an eye on him and continue to interrogate!" ”

On the way back to the headquarters, I leaned on the back of the car, looked at the dark night sky outside the window, and began to calculate in my heart, Liu Da's suspicions are not unreasonable, the scouts are not like us technicians, they attack the heart, we are the attackers, they keep a distance from anyone, are suspicious, but we always have to find an objective foothold. But this time it was different, the old man's eyes made me believe that he was not lying, and if it was, then Lily was a different case, and there must be another suspect. I thought of the reason I just said in the command, it is really redundant to pick up and move to another drowning environment after drowning, so why would the criminal make such a choice? Unless, unless the drowning environment at the first scene is so special that it is impossible to hide a body, what would it be?

When I arrived at the headquarters, I remembered that the results of the poison test did not come out, I called Wu Haoyu in the laboratory, he didn't answer the phone for a long time, and when he was about to hang up, his duck-like voice came: "Xiao Su, I just made that bottle of your stuff for you, what the hell, is this stomach only liquid?" It's really strange, this liquid composition is extremely complex, my machines are all tired, I won't list any molecules with you, your forensic doctor probably doesn't know much about these complex chemical molecules. ”

I suddenly became interested in this complex ingredient, and things often made unexpected breakthroughs in the unknowable: "Wu Haoyu, you are my brother, look at what these complex ingredients are most likely to be combined?" For example, what kind of product is combined? ”

Wu Haoyu continued: "Let me tell you this, I don't dare to say what the composition is, but I know that the surfactant contains these molecules, so I feel that these liquids are mainly a composite surfactant, do you think this works for you?" ”

"The more you talk about me, the more confused I become, what is surfactant?" My second monk was confused.

"Surfactants shouldn't be poisons, so the liquid in your stomach shouldn't directly cause death." Wu Haoyu really helped me analyze, "The most common surfactant in life is shower gel, but I really can't imagine how this drowning death can have shower gel into the stomach." ”

Hearing Wu Haoyu's words, I had goosebumps all over my body because I remembered the strawberry smell in my stomach! Enemies! The foam in your stomach must be a strawberry-flavored body wash! My brain was racing, shower gel, it must be in the shower, could it be drowned in the tub? Ten-year-old, bath, shower gel, stomach without food, I connected, it must have been Lily's mother who lied because the child didn't eat dinner at all! She lied that the child had eaten dinner to prove that everything was normal at home that day. The child drowned in the bathtub while taking a bath, and then went to the police station to report the disappearance.

I immediately reported my analysis to Liu Da, and Liu Da's eyes immediately widened: "Then don't go quickly!" ”

A group of several cars, roaring the engine, left the police station at a gallop, and a dozen people rushed to Orchid's house like lightning. When we entered the door, the orchid was burning incense, crying and talking about something, and when she saw us coming in, she didn't get up. I went straight to the bathroom, there was no shower faucet in the bathroom, only a large red bathtub with a worn-out blue towel on it, a pair of small white sandals next to the bathtub, and a bottle of shower gel on the floor, I picked it up and looked at it, it was strawberry scented, opened the lid and smelled it, it was exactly the same as the fragrance in Lily's stomach. I already knew in my mind, the blue fibers in the trachea, the foam in the strawberry-smelling stomach, the barefoot corpses, all here, and this was the real first scene, where the orchid drowned Lily in the tub and threw her body into the well.

When Liu Da told Orchid that he was going to take her to the police station to make a record, Orchid went limp, collapsed to the ground, and cried: "My own child, so disobedient, don't eat, don't bathe, I'll kill her, don't worry about it." "It seems that if the criminal police look a little more majestic, they can indeed get unexpected results.

I suddenly felt nauseous, not because of the orchid, at this time a terrible thought flashed in my heart, and I hurriedly asked Lao Wang: "Is there a pharmacy here?" ”

Lao Wang listened to my brainless words, stunned, and looked at me inexplicably: "Pharmacy? It's only in the town, and there's one next to the police station, what's the matter? Not feeling well? ”

"It's okay, it's okay, I'll talk about it when I go back." I realized that I had lost my voice just now, and subconsciously touched my stomach, and a wave of panic swept over.

Sure enough, as I expected, Liu Da and they quickly got rid of this single mother, she confessed all the details of the crime, which was almost the same as what I deduced, but I hid her cruel expression and actions when she killed her own child, this kind of tragedy is often found in society, will innocent dead children forgive their mothers?

Liu Da and the others found a supper shop to celebrate, usually they will go, because a case is solved, everyone will be in high spirits, and if they don't get together to vent, they can't calm down at all. Normally I'd go, and I wouldn't just be a supporting role, but how could I be in good spirits today?

I dragged my tired body back home, and by the way, I bought a pregnancy test stick at the 24-hour pharmacy next to the community, and the nausea I had just now made me feel that something was wrong, and it would be a joke to be pregnant at this time.

My house was given to us by my mother as a wedding house, and my mother and father divorced, but it did not affect her growing career, and her drug chain has opened in several cities. The house she gave me is more than 150 square meters, and the top floor of the high-rise elevator room is also considered luxurious in our city. But no matter how big the house is, what can it be exchanged for? If I could exchange it for my love, I'd rather just have a small home, a small nest. Although it is a hot summer, when I open the door and walk in, I feel cold, will a home without love still be warm?

As expected, my husband was not at home. I didn't bother to turn on the light, went to take a shower, and then took out the pregnancy test stick in the bathroom and tried it, the result was positive, the pregnancy test stick fell from my hand, my heart fell into the abyss at once, looking at my pale face in front of the dressing mirror, it was so pitiful and lonely.

I put on a bath towel, came to the living room, leaned on the soft sofa, the living room surrounded by three glass curtain walls can not but be said to be a bit luxurious, outside thousands of lights, the afterglow penetrates, the living room without lights looks very weird. Inadvertently, I saw that there were two copies of the divorce agreement left on the coffee table, and I picked up one of them, and before I could see the first line, tears welled up and soaked the heartbreaking paper.

I dialed Brother Murong's phone, and Brother Murong was woken up by me in his sleep, he heard my crying voice and asked me urgently: "Su San, is there a problem with the case?" He could tell he was worried.

I sobbed and couldn't say a word.

"Is the case broken?" Brother Murong was even more anxious.

"The case is fine, it has been solved." I sobbed and said, "But, but ......."

Brother Murong must have felt inexplicable over there, because I have always looked strong, I never cried, and even I realized that I was so fragile, and he became more anxious: "Su San, you say it well, what the hell is going on?" ”
