Chapter 20: Old Friends Who Have Died
Li Bai's screams resounded throughout the police station in the silent midnight, and all the sleeping people were awakened and hurriedly got up to see what was happening. Sun Duo and his two colleagues were the first to run down from the third floor, and Li Bai had already run to the door of the dormitory, but he didn't pay attention to locking the door when he came out, and was knocking on the door hard at the moment.
Lei Baoquan was sleeping soundly, and was suddenly awakened by a quick knock on the door, startled, and heard Li Bai's voice and hurriedly opened the door, and several people gathered at the door of the dormitory.
"Xiaobai, what's wrong with you?" Sun Duo ran to him with two colleagues, and when he saw Li Bai's panicked face, he hurriedly asked.
Lei Baoquan opened the door and saw Li Bai's appearance, and he was also puzzled: "What are you shouting and screaming in the middle of the night?" ”
Li Bai was frightened by the scene just now, his hand trembled and pointed in the direction of the toilet, and he stammered: "Face... There's a dead face... on the toilet door. ”
When everyone heard this, they were very dazed, and looked in the direction of Li Bai's finger, there was nothing at the door of the toilet, only the light shining from inside.
"What's the face?" Sun Duo asked puzzled.
"Li... Inside..."Li Bai gasped and said.
"Xiao Wang, go take a look." Sun Duo said to a colleague behind him.
Xiao Wang agreed, trotted into the toilet, and after half a minute, leaned out and said, "Team Sun, there's nothing." ”
"Impossible! I just saw a real face, there was a face on the door of the cubicle. Li Bai said and walked to the door of the toilet with the others, Sun Duo went in and looked around, pouted and said, "Where are you talking about?" ”
The door of the compartment was open at this time, Li Bai didn't dare to enter, stood at the door and pointed up to the compartment: "That's the place, just now I heard a voice inside, and then I saw a dead face looking at me from above..."
If he hadn't seen that kind of "thing" once at school, Lei Baoquan might have reprimanded Li Bai on the spot, but although he didn't see anything at this time, he was silent.
"You're not going to sleep, are you? How can this have a dead face? Besides, will the dead still look at you? Sun Duo and two other colleagues smiled.
"You must have been too nervous to handle the case recently, and you took what you saw in your dreams as real." Xiao Wang comforted.
In this way, everyone stopped and returned to their positions to continue to do things.
Lei Baoquan and Li Bai returned to the dormitory, Li Bai was still in shock, sitting on the bed and looking at the floor expressionlessly, Lei Baoquan was face to face with him, looking at him like this, and asked tentatively: "What did you just say, what did you see?" ”
Seeing Lei Baoquan ask himself, Li Bai rubbed his face with his hands and said, "A dead man's face, to be exact, is a face like a dead man." ”
Lei Baoquan looked like nonsense when he saw that Li Bai was so frightened, he lit a cigarette and said, "I said, why did so many things happen to you kid?" You go and see the eight characters another day, is it fate? ”
"Uncle Lei, don't say it, I really want to find a master to calculate, I have never encountered this kind of thing before, and I want to ask you if the feng shui here is not good." Li Bai said with a sigh.
"There's no feng shui thing, I've been here for 20 years, and I haven't seen anything dirty." Lei Baoquan leaned against the wall while smoking, looking at a large photo hanging on the wall behind Li Bai and said silently.
Li Bai turned his head following Lei Baoquan's gaze, he didn't notice that there were three or four group photos hanging on the wall behind him, one of which had the most people in it, everyone was standing together in police uniforms, looking at the camera with a smile.
"This is a photo we took together many years ago, when there were still a lot of people, and now the retired are retired, and the transferred are transferred, and there are fewer people in this bureau." Lei Baoquan said with emotion.
Li Bai glanced at it, looked for it in the photo, turned his head to Lei Baoquan with a smile and said, "Uncle Lei, you haven't changed much." As soon as he finished speaking, Li Bai's expression froze, his expression was a little surprised, and he slowly turned back to look at the photo.
Lei Baoquan saw that Li Bai's mood changed too quickly, and asked, "What's wrong?" ”
Li Bai pointed to the person in the photo tremblingly and asked, "Uncle Lei, the person in front of you is... Who is it? ”
Lei Baoquan stepped forward to take a look, and said: "Oh, this is the old policeman in our bureau, who is much older than me, and I took special care of me when I first came, but it's a pity..." Then the prisoner also jumped out of the window and ran away. Alas, alas, it is a pity that those who are about to retire and enjoy happiness. Lei Baoquan didn't feel good when he thought of this.
"He... How did he die? Li Bai's face turned pale and asked slowly.
"Uh... I remember that the prisoners pressed him into the pool and drowned. Lei Baoquan shook his head and said.
"Uncle Lei, the face I just saw is... That's him. Li Bai remembered the sound from the ghost's mouth just now, the same as the sound made by a person in the water, and he unconsciously wiped the sweat from his palms.
"No... No way? Lei Baoquan was stunned, he didn't expect Li Bai to see his old colleague who had been dead for many years.
"I don't believe it either, but it's this face..."
Lei Baoquan couldn't think of anything to say for a while, so he could only let Li Bai lie down first and slowly relieve himself, and in the second half of the night, the frightened Li Bai fell asleep and fell asleep unconsciously. On the other side, Lei Baoquan didn't close his eyes all night.
Early the next morning, both of them sat in the conference room with tired faces and made a cup of coffee each. Jin Guo was detained for a night due to insufficient evidence, and had just left the police station.
Sun Duo took three pies and walked over, and the three of them sat at the table and chatted while eating.
"You say, this murderer is not Jin Guo, so who else will there be?" Sun Duo said.
"I don't know who it is, but I know that as soon as this Jin country leaves, we will have to start all over again." Li Bai sighed and said.
The three of them chatted for a long time, and Lao Huang also arrived, looked at the three people who had no energy, and said, "Didn't you sleep last night?" These are all listless. Then Lao Huang gave full play to his strengths, cheered the three of them on, and gave a "emotional" lesson.
After that, Lao Huang saw that the effect was not great, and said: "That's it, everyone is quite tired these days, I'll treat you and go out for a meal at noon." Then he urged the three of them to a barbecue restaurant near the police station.
When Lei Baoquan and Li Bai saw the meat, they were obviously in a much better mood, especially Li Bai, who swept away the haze of last night and ate it in a big gulp. Seeing Li Bai like this, Lao Huang was also comforted a lot, and kept adding vegetables.
When the meal was almost finished, Lao Huang's phone rang, he picked up the phone, his face became very ugly, put down the phone, and said, "Let's leave after eating, there is another case." ”
The other three people's hearts sank, and they suddenly lost the mood just now, and followed Lao Huang to the scene of the crime.
This time in one of the buildings of a high-end community, the four of them entered the house, and saw a corpse sitting on the sofa in the living room, and the eyes were also gouged out, unlike before, this was a male corpse.
Xiao Wang was collecting evidence at the scene, and when he saw the four people coming, he greeted him and said: "Huang Ju, this is still done by the murderer of the eyeless female corpse, and the methods are the same." The deceased's name was Gao Guomin, 56 years old, a retired principal of Yungang High School, who died at about 7 o'clock this morning. ”
When the four of them heard that it was Yungang High School again, they looked at each other.
"There's this on the coffee table." Xiao Wang took out a note that was the same as before, and it was written crookedly: She is guilty and a teacher in vain.
"It's this note again!" Sun Duo said angrily.
"Wait, do you see anything?" Li Bai suddenly asked.
Everyone was puzzled, and Li Bai pointed to the words on it: "The female 'she' is used here, not the male 'he', which proves that this is not written about the deceased." ”
"You mean to say?" Lao Huang asked.
"By the way, there is no note for the first female corpse, and it has only been since the second corpse." Lei Baoquan recalled, "This shows that the murderer started with the second deceased, and borrowed the deceased's hand to write down the 'crime' of the previous deceased." ”
After listening to this, everyone noticed this detail.
"In that case, Pan Xiaoxi's 'sin' is to let down his friends, Liu Shuqi's 'sin' is self-righteousness, and He Huifang's 'sin' is to be a teacher in vain." Li Bai sorted out the object of the note.
"This should be the clue! The murderer and Pan Xiaoxi are friends, and they have a holiday with Liu Shuqi, and He Huifang is his teacher. Lei Baoquan said firmly.
After thinking about it, a few other people thought about it and felt that it made sense, and Lei Baoquan asked again: "What about the family of this Gundam Min?" ”
"Gaudimin's wife and children traveled abroad a few days ago, I don't know why Gaudimin didn't go, our people are already contacting them." Xiao Wang replied.
Everyone looked at each other for a moment, new clues, let's start all over again!
