In the past few days, Zeng Jinchao has been forced by these three murders to have his biological clock completely chaotic, and every time a phone call comes, he will always nervously think about whether it is a serial murder case. The bell in the office rang, and he reluctantly continued, and when he heard that someone had died on the basketball court, he immediately put on his coat and summoned people to rush over.

Ten minutes later, they appeared at Zhongshan Bridge and sealed off the murder scene.

When he came, Zeng Jinchao saw five or six people pressing on a person, whose voice was hoarse and he no longer had the strength to move.

"What's wrong?" Kaige stepped forward and asked.

Five or six got up, only to see that one person lying on the ground panting.

The man slowly crawled over, reached out and grabbed Kai Ge's ankle, half-squinted, gasped and said, "My dad...... He's dead...... Help me ......"

Kaige hurriedly helped him up - just now in my mind, I inadvertently remembered the scene of Ziwei and Er Kang's first encounter in "Huanzhu Gege". I shuddered unconsciously.

Zeng Jinchao and several colleagues went into the basketball court to check, and Kaige recorded the information about the incident outside.

"Who are you? Relationship with the deceased? Kaige took out his notebook and asked solemnly.

"My name is Gao Taiyang, and the one inside is my father." Gao Taiyang's whole body was dirty, there were several places, and his blue-gray coat was worn out.

The other three people surrounded and introduced themselves as Wu Meng, Wangshugui, and Ouyang Jianxing, who were Gao Taiyang's classmates. "For fear that he would destroy the scene, I pulled him desperately, and finally had to press on him."

Kaige nodded and praised: "It's good to have such awareness. ”

"What about invoices?" Gao Taiyang asked the others, Wu Meng thought for a while, "It's still on him." ”

"What invoice?" Triumphant was puzzled.

Wu Meng took out his mobile phone and tuned to the picture, "It's a little unclear, let's just do it." This is a threatening letter written by the killer to his dad, and on the back of the invoice is a threatening letter. Look at—"

Triumphant stared at the red word and couldn't help frowning. Through the red words, you can also feel the murderer's incomparable anger.

In 1997, think about what you did, right? Isn't what happened to me because of you? Hopefully you'll remember, and then we'll talk.

At half past eight in the evening on November 20, I went to Zhongshan Bridge on Jiangbin South Road. We haven't seen each other in years, because you've been hiding from you-

After that, Gao Taiyang described this incident in general: "On the 16th, when my dad and I were having dinner, I was about to pay when I saw this strange note. When my dad saw it, he trembled and kept saying, 'He's coming......,' and was so scared that he wrote a suicide note. My dad showed up tonight as promised, and we saw him go to the other side of the bridge. ”

The triumphant songs were recorded one by one, and there were all kinds of doubts in my heart. The deceased knew the murderer, and even had already avenged his mortality.

When Kaige learned more about the situation, Zeng Jinchao was carefully surveying the basketball court. The body has been transported out, leaving traces to fix the line. From the position, the body was placed in the southeast direction of the basketball hoop.

By the way, the lines next to the corpse were drawn with chalk. Since there was no line drawn on the basketball court, the murderer deliberately took some time, if it was just a quick glance, he thought it was a professional line drawing. Indeed, the free throw line, the limit line, the free throw area, etc., were drawn specifically on the half court where the corpse was lying with chalk. Even the circle in the penalty area, half of which is half of the dotted line, has been measured to be 1.6m in diameter. A colleague searched with a mobile phone, and the circle in the penalty area was really 1.8m in diameter.

It can be known that the murderer is familiar with basketball. At the very least, you should be engaged in basketball-related work.

As with the last placement, this position still makes sense. A colleague said that this position is a center forward.

Zeng Jinjin couldn't help but feel a dull pain in his head, and by now, four people had died, each corresponding to a position on the basketball court. What exactly does the murderer have to do with the deceased, and why did you choose the basketball court as the place to dump the body?

And the severed right hand, which was placed in the free throw area with the deflated basketball. The severed right hand is northeast of the basketball. What does this mean?

Zeng Jinchao touched his chin, his brain spun rapidly, but he couldn't get an answer.

Inadvertently, he glanced at the fence to the left of the basketball hoop, where a palm-sized piece of cloth hung from a wire barb. The fence was about 2 meters high and enclosed two basketball courts. The palm-sized cloth hung pitifully there, drifting in the wind.

"Take that piece of cloth down." Zeng Jinchao pointed to that thing and said.

A colleague next to him used a pole to get the piece of cloth down, Zeng Jinchao picked it up, looked at it carefully, and couldn't help frowning. The palm-sized black cloth had unusual blood stains on it, which was incompatible with black. Moreover, the cloth was clearly a barb that had been cut and left on the fence, and there were many broken wires coming out of the cracks.

Zeng Jinchao touched his chin, looked at the position of the corpse on the ground, and looked along the corpse to the fence on the left. So what is the purpose of this cloth?

Since this small black cloth was ripped off, there should be a larger black cloth. So where is this big black cloth? Zeng Jinchao and his colleagues walked out of the stadium and searched for it nearby.

"Kai Clicquot, how are you asking?" Zeng Jinchao said to Kaige.

Kaige nodded, and then asked, "Is it time to close the team?" ”

"I was looking for this black cloth, and my instinct told me that this black cloth was important." Zeng Jinchao took out the palm-sized black cloth, and then looked around. This basketball court without street lights is a badminton court on the east side, and the lights of the badminton court shine through, so you should be able to see everything on the basketball court. In that case, why hasn't anyone found the body?

"Do you remember how long it was from the time the gunshots rang out to the time the bodies were found?" Zeng Jinchao asked Gao Taiyang.

Gao Taiyang was still in grief and did not react. Wu Meng on the side took out his mobile phone and recalled carefully: "I remember that I saw his father at 8:30, and then followed him across the Zhongshan Bridge. For about ten minutes, there was gunfire like this, and many people ran across the bridge. We also kept looking for the source of the sound, and it was about 8:50 to 9 o'clock, and we found the ......" in the basketball court, swallowed and didn't say the last two words.

Then it can be inferred that the time of the deceased was around 8:40, and then the body was found ten minutes later.

A strange paradox comes, when was the line drawn under the corpse? And the lock of the fence is also locked, where did the key come from?

The last problem is easy to solve, such an old-fashioned lock, it can be opened in about 30 seconds if it is his. So the first question, assuming that the basketball line is drawn in advance, then the entire basketball court must be complete. Why is there no line drawn under the corpse, because the person fell to the ground first, and after dragging, the murderer drew a line again, so he stepped over the corpse.

But in 10 minutes, to be able to draw such a large "masterpiece", the murderer must draw it in at least 5 minutes, and then evacuate in 5 minutes. But the question arises, in these ten minutes, no one has found out? Assuming that the people who are walking are running to the other side of the bridge in a hurry and do not look at the basketball court on the east side, then the badminton court on the east side of the basketball court should be aware of the strange behavior on the basketball court when passing by.

"You're playing on the badminton court, right?" Zeng Jinchao saw a person carrying a badminton racket on his back and asked.

"Yes, our company plays a game, and more than ten people are on the badminton court together." The man replied.

"Did you hear the gunshot?" Kai Clicquot asked.

"When I heard that, I was scared and ran out." The man felt that he was a man, and he actually ran away in advance, which was a shame.

Zeng Jinzhao Mingrui asked: "On the basketball court 50 meters away from you, did you see any strange people?" ”

The man echoed, "The basketball court is so dark, and there are no lights. It's black and numb inside, what do you see? But people don't have to. ”

Zeng Jinzhao is even more sure that he is in a paradox. Suppose he falls to the ground after being shot, and the killer immediately starts drawing lines. But no one noticed his strange actions on the basketball court. So how did the murderer elegantly draw the line, and he could leave gracefully, but in the end he was not discovered by anyone.

You can't have both fish and bear's paws, and it is impossible to escape if you leave a sign of serial murders, and you won't leave a sign of a murder if you want to escape smoothly.

Zeng Jinchao looked at the small piece of black cloth that had been torn off from his palm, and his intuition told him that this piece of big black cloth that belonged to him had a considerable effect on the case.

As mentioned before, this little black cloth is a barb hanging on the fence, and it was forcibly withdrawn. This thing doesn't come out for no reason—Zeng Jinchao frowned.

"You go and look for it, if there is such a black cloth." He said loudly.

Several colleagues carefully searched for the black cloth in the bushes, garbage cans, etc., but there seemed to be no progress.

Did you see the river on your left - could it be in the water?

On November nights, the wind was blowing so hard that I wanted to strip people of their clothes. He didn't want his colleagues to go into the water to look for him, so he went down the grassy slope by himself.

"Captain, you're—" Kaige didn't pay attention, and the captain arrived on the shore, already taking off his shoes and socks.

"Find—that piece of black cloth...... "Once and now in the water, the piercing cold spread throughout the nerves, and he sneezed firmly.

"I'm young, I'll go down." Kaige ran down and said worriedly.

Zeng Jinchao shouted an order: "You search on the shore!" ”

Kai Ge felt very uncomfortable. The captain carefully explored in the cold water, moving forward little by little. How could the captain stand it in such cold water.

Zeng Jinyuan also endured the cold of the sail cone piercing his thighs, and every time he moved a small step, it took a lot of energy to control his numb legs, and he had to rely on his numb legs to feel those foreign objects in the water. Many times, he felt something soft, and when he pulled it up, it was just a plastic bag, clothes.

Maybe it was washed down by the river. Further down.

"Come up, Captain." Kai Clicquot followed all the way to the shore, and couldn't help but shout for the fifth time: "I'll go into the water to search—"

The order remained ruthless, "Wait a minute! You search on the shore! ”

Kaige's heart was warm and sad, and he felt that he was useless, which made the captain suffer. In the water, his face is full of police responsibility and honor, as well as perseverance.

"Found ......," Zeng Jin smiled weakly. He held a wet cloth between his fingers and slowly walked ashore.

At this time, Zeng Jin was in the water, from the basketball court to the badminton court, the distance was nearly 100 meters! As soon as he came ashore, Zeng Jin fell softly on Kai Ge.

Kai Ge hurriedly carried the captain up, found hot water for the captain to drink, and took off his clothes to wrap the captain's red feet.

The black cloth was unfolded, about two meters wide. One of them was torn out. Pair the small black cloth on top and match it just right.

Got the important evidence in his hands, but lost a pair of legs, Zeng Jin smiled bitterly, "It's really old, alas-"
