We A7 took a hard rest this night, and when the sun appeared the next day, we were extremely energetic, but our bodies were still sore, which was the effect of sudden relief from long-term fatigue, and it would be fine if we moved a few times.

After breakfast, Xu Rui, Du Xiaoworm, and Ye Jia and I prepared to leave the living dead and Li Yuan at the police station.

It took half an hour for us to arrive at the company where Lin Tao worked before his death, this is a toy company, Lin Tao is engaged in design, and there are five people in his office, three women and two men, all of whom are not very old. When we knocked on the door, the five were using drawings to develop a new toy.

"Excuse me, we are the police, in charge of Lin Tao's case." Xu Rui glanced at Lin Tao's colleagues.

A woman in her thirties stood up and said, "Hello, I'm the team leader, Xu Haiyan." ”

"My surname is Xu." Xu Rui smiled, and he asked: "We are here today mainly to learn about Lin Tao's situation before his death, so I won't ask, just say as much as you know, thank you." ”

"Lin Tao's life, ah......" Xu Haiyan recalled: "This kid has a very cheerful personality, but there will be a few days every month when he is very depressed, and no one pays attention to it, we all laugh at him and say that his aunt is here." He is very serious at work, and his imagination is also rich, and he also designed a toy to disassemble the doll by himself in September last year, and won the company's best toy award last year. ”

I wondered, "Last September? Disassembling dolls? ”

This was shortly after the July and August anomalies, and the name of the toy was still called a dismantling doll, which was not suspicious.

"Well, yes, it's to disassemble the doll, according to market research, this doll is especially loved by children." Another male employee said.

Ye Jia pouted and said, "Is there any of this, bring us one to see." ”

"Wait a minute." Xu Haiyan came to the cabinet next to the wall, and while she took the key to open the lock, she said: "Every time we design a toy, we put the drawings and finished products in this part for storage. ”

After half a minute, Xu Haiyan took out a square box, and she brought it to the table in front of us and said, "That's it." ”

I reached out and opened the lid of the box, revealing a pile of loose shelves of "parts", each with a separate plastic enclosure.

I took the big couplet to the table, and I was very surprised when I saw all the parts, all the human parts, some of them were heads, some were hair, some were eyes, noses, mouths, torsos, arms, legs, hands and feet, but not only one of them, just the head, there were three types of faces, melon seed face, goose egg face and wrinkled face.

The eyes are also large and small, the legs are also short and long, and even the skin of some arms and hands is full of wrinkles, and some are extremely delicate.

There is only one torso.

If this large pile of human body parts is put together on the torso, there are countless possibilities for collocation, which may seem normal to everyone, but imagine what the visual sense would be if you put a beautiful melon seed face with an arm full of wrinkles?

It's extremely weird!

At this time, Xu Rui took out some plastic bags in this box, which were all clothes tailored for disassembling dolls, and when we saw the style of the clothes, we couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat!

Solid color short sleeves!

Red Skirt!

The pants that the gray old man wears!

Old man gown in white......

This...... Isn't it the two clothes that Sanqiu Guizi and the old lady next door wore when they disappeared!

And the third set of clothes is a red antique women's robe and belly pockets, obscene pants and the like, purely ancient women's clothing, my heart moved, this body is very similar to the appearance of a female ghost!

Xu Haiyan next to him said: "Lin Tao designed these three sets at the beginning, but they can also be matched separately. ”

Du Xiaoworm's eyes blinked and asked, "Did Lin Tao say where the inspiration for designing this disassembled doll came from?" ”

"He said he came up with it when he watched a dismemberment scene from a horror movie." Xu Haiyan explained, she said with admiration: "But this idea is really good, the reason why it is liked by children is because there are countless possibilities for disassembling dolls, and the styles are not the same, some are beautiful, some are weird, and they are almost universal." The dismantled doll was upgraded three times in a year, with more faces, hairstyles and figures. ”

There is a copy at the bottom of the box.

I picked it up and opened it, and the first sentence on it was: "There is always a disassembled doll that allows you to find yourself------- Lin Tao." "Here are some design details and ideas.

Du Xiaoworm reached out and picked up the human body parts that were molded by the couplet, she observed carefully, and after half a minute, she said faintly: "The size of the arms, head, and torso are all designed according to the proportions of the human body, and there will be no sense of disobedience when matched." ”

"The female officer is right." Xu Haiyan said: "Lin Tao said that in order to design and disassemble the doll, he personally invited the model to measure the size, and even these three clothes were worn by the model at that time. ”

The corners of Ye Jia's eyes twitched: "Are you sure?" ”

Xu Haiyan noticed that our attitude had changed, and she said inexplicably: "Officers, what's wrong......

"It's okay, we're going to take this box of disassembled dolls back to the police station, no objection, right?" Xu Rui said quietly.

Xu Haiyan said suspiciously: "I have to report this to the manager before I can let you leave the company." ”

"Okay, you can report back when we leave." Xu Rui nodded and said, "What do Lin Tao usually like to go to besides home and company?" ”

"He's ......" Xu Haiyan thought for a while, shook her head and said, "I really don't know much, you ask them." ”

Then one of the youngest men said: "I know, Lin Tao likes to fish, every week when he rests, he will take a fishing rod and a basket to the old lake in the southern district, spend ten yuan, a fishing is a day, I feel that Lin Tao's hobby is particularly boring, like an old man." ”

"The old lake in the southern side? Is it the small lake next to Xiangyuan Road Park? I asked.

The man moved his head again and again and said, "Yes, yes." ”

I quickly took the note, which should be true, because Lin Tao's study did have two telescopic fishing rods and fish baskets in the bag. I asked, "Yes, is there anything else?" ”

"No ......," the man said helplessly: "Lin Tao rarely participates in company gatherings or dinners or anything, I know that he loves fishing or once met when he went to Laohu with a female ticket." Alas, there were a lot of fish in this old lake before, but there were fewer and fewer, Lin Tao complained to me at the time that sometimes I couldn't catch one in a day, I asked him why you are still fishing here and not changing places, he took advantage of this to pretend to be a force, saying that the fishing is not fish, but the artistic conception. ”

"Thank you for the clues." After I finished recording, I asked Du Xiaoworm and Xu Rui for a while, but there were no more valuable clues, and after Xu Haiyan reported it, we took the box and disassembled the doll and left Lin Tao's company.

On the way back, I speculated: "Boss, the situation is already very clear, the initialized disassembled doll, the form and clothes are made according to Sanqiu Guizi, the old lady next door and the female ghost before their deaths." ”

"Hmph, what else did Lin Tao say about the model he asked for." Ye Jia twitched the corners of his mouth, he was angry and disdainful: "It is clear that two months before the design of the dismantling of the doll, the three women were killed in their own home, in order to facilitate the size of the corpse when eating meat, it is indeed perverted, not only cannibalism, but also designed a toy according to the killing object, which makes the children like it very much, if parents know how to disassemble the doll, who will buy it for their children?" ”

"The leaves are calm." Xu Rui touched his chin and said, "Disassembling the doll can only be used as an abstract speculation, and cannot be used as a clue." Now we only have Sanqiu Guizi's clothes, and the clothes in front of the old lady and the female ghost next door don't have them. ”

At this time, a flash of inspiration flashed in my mind, and I said: "Boss, you said that the clown used to pretend to be a female ghost and wore the red robe on Lin Tao's corpse, is it possible that the female ghost wore it before her death?" Maybe Lin Tao has kept it after committing the crime, and the clown sneaked into his house and turned over the ......"
