Chapter 2: New Neighbors
It is a small city by the sea, called Yungang City, with a population of less than 600,000, and there are two smaller towns nearby, Jigang Town and Shugang Town. Yungang City has a fairly large port, and the main trade is the export of aquatic products, such as seafood or processed seafood. Therefore, half of the people in this city live on the port, doing business with the sea.
The sun was strong at noon, and the fishermen in the harbor were still tidying up on their fishing boats, and further afield, some large cargo ships were loading and unloading. Lei Baoquan stood on the edge of the port, leaning against the car door and smoking, watching all this. It seemed to be a necessary procedure for him to be troubled.
I was still thinking about the female corpse I saw in the morning, and there was nothing abnormal at the scene, because of the heavy rain, it was very difficult to collect evidence at the scene. Although he didn't say it, Lei Baoquan still cared about this case very much in his heart, after all, he had been a police officer for so many years, and whenever he encountered such a bizarre case, he would always be inexplicably excited.
Strangled to death, his eyes were pierced by iron nails, why the murderer had to go to such great lengths to nail the body to the wall after killing the victim, such a deliberate act is very puzzling. Could it be that the murderer deliberately created a terrifying atmosphere like in the movie to show off his unique killing methods?
Thinking of this, Lei Baoquan smiled bitterly and shook his head, now in this world, there are really everyone.
After three cigarettes, Lei Baoquan drove back to his residence, and as soon as he went up to the third floor, he heard Sister Wang's high-pitched voice: "Don't worry, I definitely have the most cost-effective house of the same kind here, clean and cheap, you really don't want to find a house with such conditions." ”
With the voice, Sister Wang walked from Lei Baoquan's room across the door to the corridor and grinned into the room. Lei Baoquan was usually used to seeing the fierce and vicious Sister Wang, but at this moment, he was frightened by the enthusiastic expression in front of him.
"What? Sister Wang, is my father here? Lei Baoquan quipped.
When Sister Wang heard this, she turned her head and saw Lei Baoquan, and immediately changed her face and shouted, "You dead man, you have nothing to do all day, and I haven't asked you to settle accounts this morning." ”
Lei Baoquan just wanted to answer, and a tall man walked out of the room, who looked like he should be close to 1.9 meters, with a strong physique, short hair, and a pair of eyes on his thin face.
"Okay, let's do it, can it be cheaper?" The man's voice was also very loud, matching his appearance.
"Young man, it's not the eldest sister who blows, I can't find such a house anywhere else, it's the only one!" Sister Wang deliberately picked a thumbs up.
"Yes, little brother, Sister Wang is right! You can't find a house like this anymore. Lei Baoquan walked to the door of his room, and when he heard Sister Wang boasting like this, he immediately answered: "This is the only old building in Yungang City with history, which contains cultural heritage and a strong humanistic atmosphere. The biggest advantage is that if you fart in your room, everyone in the next room can hear it, which makes it easier for neighbors to communicate and promote interpersonal development. ”
Sister Wang, who was very useful to Lei Baoquan's first half of the words, immediately grabbed Lei Baoquan, turned her head and said to the man with a smile: "This Baoquan brother said more subjectively, the old building, we can't ask it to compare with the current villa building, although the sound insulation effect is a little worse, but it is not as evil as he said, and it does not affect normal life."
Seeing the man looking at him, Sister Wang's heart was crossed and she said, "Okay! I'll give you two hundred, eight hundred a month, okay? ”
The man smiled: "Okay, then I'll rent this, Sister Wang, I'm sorry for you." ”
Sister Wang looked at such a tall and handsome young man, and thought to herself that she would suffer a little loss, maybe she would be able to develop in the future, after all, she had been divorced for so many years, and her single life was very lonely. Thinking so in his heart, he said with a smile: "Where, the neighbors will live in the future, what do you have to tell the eldest sister." Then you clean up first, and I'll get the money later. ”
After talking to the man, Sister Wang turned around and saw Lei Baoquan's smiling face, and immediately became angry and said, "Laugh at a fart!" Just because you earn two hundred less, four hundred in two months, and ...... in three months."
"Sister Wang, I know very well what you are, honest and generous, you definitely won't care about this little money. All the houses on the third floor belong to yours, and it will be very important to find a wronged boss in the future, and I will help you! Lei Baoquan smiled hesitantly.
Sister Wang couldn't show her fierce side in front of the new guests, so she glanced at Lei Baoquan and returned to the house.
The newcomer smiled and said to Lei Baoquan, "Thank you for saving me a sum of money." ”
"With a gesture, as long as I can make that eldest sister Wang unhappy, I am willing to do it." Lei Baoquan did not forget to sarcastically mock Sister Wang.
The man was amused: "My name is Jin Guo, I am from Jigang Town, I just returned from demobilization from the army last month, and I plan to find a job in Yungang City. ”
"Oh, I was a soldier." Lei Baoquan said with a smile, "My name is Lei Baoquan, you can call me Lao Lei, we will all be neighbors in the future, just say anything." ”
After the two said hello, they went back to the house, Lei Baoquan took off his coat and lay down on the sofa at once, and recalled the female corpse, this image lingered in his mind, so he fell asleep groggily.
When he woke up, it was already dusk, Lei Baoquan felt very hungry, put on his coat and wanted to go out to eat, took the key and walked out.
"Bang bang bang..."There seemed to be some sound, Lei Baoquan closed the door, looked left and right, and there was nothing. The sound continued, as if it was coming from the opposite door, Lei Baoquan leaned over and stuck it on the door to listen carefully, the sound was even more obvious, as if someone was knocking on something.
The door was hidden and not closed, Lei Baoquan carefully pushed open a small crack, and couldn't see anything, so he continued to push the door open, and saw Jin Guo sitting on the ground with his back to him, knocking on something.
"Xiaojin, what are you doing? What's broken? Lei Baoquan saw that it was the new Xiao Jin, so he stepped forward with a smile and asked.
"Ahh Immediately, Lei Baoquan was frightened by the scene in front of him, and Xiao Jin was holding a hammer in his hand, nailing a thick and large iron nail to the eye of a female corpse in front of him. The voice "bang", Lei Baoquan swallowed a mouthful of saliva, although he had solved a lot of cases, but seeing such a scene so closely, he was still startled, and said in a trembling voice: "Xiaojin, you... What are you doing? ”
Xiao Jin didn't look up, didn't answer, just smashed the nail with the hammer in his hand. Lei Baoquan couldn't move his steps, he could only look at the terrifying scene in front of him fixedly, and suddenly, the female corpse stood up suddenly, pulled out the iron nail in her eyes and stood in front of Lei Baoquan, her voice was terrible and terrifying, and she shouted to him: "Give me back my eyes!" Give me my life! ”
Lei Baoquan was so frightened that he turned around and wanted to run, not wanting to be firmly grasped by the female corpse, so his scalp was numb with fright, and he ran out with all his might.
With a "bang", Lei Baoquan fell off the sofa "vigorously", and he was still in a cold sweat. He gasped and looked around, it turned out to be a dream.
Lei Baoquan drank a large glass of water in one go, although it was a dream, but it felt too real, and he almost didn't scare a heart attack in the dream, it seems that he was too concerned about this case, and he could have this female corpse in a dream.
After slowing down for a while, his stomach growled, and Lei Baoquan remembered that he didn't seem to have eaten today, although he was too lazy to move, he still couldn't stand his stomach, picked up his coat, and prepared to go downstairs to find something to eat. Looking at the watch, it was already past five o'clock, and I slept all afternoon.
Walking to the door, Lei Baoquan closed the door, turned his head and looked at the door opposite, the door was closed, and there was no other movement except for the sound of the TV in Sister Wang's room. Lei Baoquan hesitated, slowly walked to the opposite door, and carefully stuck to the door to listen, there was no sound in the room, maybe no one was there.
Lei Baoquan himself felt funny, it was just a dream, and he seemed to be scared to the point of being mentally abnormal.
Sitting on a bench on the side of the street, Lei Baoquan held the egg cake he had just bought, and watched the passers-by while eating. With a stubble on his face and his hair not taken care of much, in the eyes of others, this is completely unemployed at home, and his wife still runs away with others with money, but Lei Baoquan is so aimless every time he observes, and he has caught the murderer several times, he calls this "purposeless lock".
After eating the egg cake, Lei Baoquan suddenly wanted to go to the crime scene in the morning to take a look, and his intuition told him that he should carefully look for any clues that had not been found. He simply flagged down a taxi on the side of the street and went straight to Chiliu Alley.
In the car, he called Lao Huang to inquire about the investigation, Lao Huang was having dinner, and said: "The forensic team is examining the body over there, and they still have to summarize some specific situations of the on-site investigation, and it is estimated that they will be able to come out tomorrow morning." ”
"And what do you know now?" Lei Baoquan wanted to know some general information before going to the scene.
Lao Huang had just gone to the city in the afternoon to attend a lecture on the rule of law and security, and before he had time to learn more about this case, he said: "It's not good for me to talk nonsense now, and the specific results haven't come out yet, how can a leader like me talk nonsense casually?" ”
Lei Baoquan knew what was going on as soon as he heard it, and said, "If you don't know, you just say you don't know, why are you dragging so many words?" I'll go to the bureau tomorrow morning, and we'll discuss it in detail. ”
"Okay, don't worry, I will fully support you."
When I hung up the phone, I heard Lao Huang inside say: "Add two more dishes, the child will come back from afar, we have to eat well......
Lei Baoquan pouted, this old Huang's amount of wine has a fight with himself, if he is happy to drink, he will not be able to finish it for a while.
The car stopped at the edge of Chiliu Alley, got out of the car, Lei Baoquan went straight to the scene of the crime, the sun had not set in the distance, the alley was full of old people and women with children, and they were talking about the appalling tragedy that happened in the morning. Lei Baoquan thought that these people were really big-hearted, and this matter was so close to him, so he didn't feel afraid, and he was still chatting here.
Walking to the mouth of the alley, there was still a cordon around the wall, two holes in the wall that had been nailed, and there were dried blood inside, and there were some traces of combing on the ground, which should have been marked during the forensics.
Lei Baoquan stretched out his hand and touched his pocket, only to find that he didn't bring cigarettes, looked around, this alley is north-south, northward, slightly sloped, and then go up more than 20 meters, there is a "Lao Hu family commissary", the smoking addiction can't bear it, Lei Baoquan thought, and walked to the commissary.
