Chapter 045: Self-defeating

I looked at my watch, and I slept groggily all day, and now it was past nine o'clock the next morning, and Lao Zhang's memorial service was five hours later. I asked the waiter at the counter when the red clothes were delivered, and she thought about it and told me it was about an hour ago.

The hotel was always much darker and darker than outside, which made my head even more muddy. Xu Yi also followed, she was still wearing the scarlet dress, and the people walking in the hotel looked at Xu Yi strangely, avoiding it from a distance. Xu Yi ran to my side, grabbed me who almost fell to the ground, and asked me what was wrong.

Xu Yi still doesn't know anything, the time for her to come back is too short, I don't even have time to accompany her, how can she know about the case of the woman in red. I am extremely remorseful in my heart, I should be by Xu Yi's side every step of the way, if Xu Yi is in danger during the time I go out to investigate the case, I will definitely regret it for the rest of my life.

I wanted to explain to Xu Yi, but something suddenly occurred to me, and I jerked around to look around. My panicked appearance, as well as Xu Yi's red clothes, had already attracted many people's attention to us, I rushed out of the hotel, looked around, and sure enough, I saw a face in a remote corner.

The fever was so severe that everything I saw in my eyes seemed to be two, and the face was sneakily hiding behind a wall, leaning out half of its body. I saw him out of the corner of my eye, and in order not to startle the snake, I deliberately looked elsewhere and pretended not to find him.

When I glanced back at the corner of my eye, half of my body had already leaned back, and although it was only a fleeting moment, I could still see the blurry face.

Xu Yi followed again, and came out with her, along with one of the criminal policemen guarding the door of the room. They all asked me in a panic what was wrong, I took Xu Yi by the hand, went back to the room to get the file of the serial murder case of the woman in red, and asked the two detectives to protect my mother every step of the way. After that, I took Xu Yi's hand and ran in the direction of the police station.

Today is a cloudy day, and the cool wind is constantly blowing, and from time to time it will raise dust and sand on the ground. Xu Yi didn't ask any more, she knew me best, I was in such a hurry, there must be something important. The reason why I rushed out of the hotel was because I thought about the character of the murderer.

Sending red clothes over at this time is not at all in line with the murderer's recent provocation. The murderer's thoughtfulness, superb modus operandi, and anti-investigation ability are the strongest of all the suspects I have ever seen, and with the arrogance of his previous crimes under our noses, he would not have committed crimes when the police force in City G had just been withdrawn.

He is more likely to commit the crime when the whole city of G City is on alert, but at that time, Sun Hui and Xiao Nan were rescued by us, and then Zhao Da applied for cross-regional assistance from the police forces in other regions, and the murderer had no way to start. If the murderer chooses to commit the crime when the guard is relaxed, it means that the murderer is afraid, and for such a paranoid murderer, he loses.

It is unknown whether the murderer is Xiong Wancheng or not, but he is indeed the most suspicious, if not, the murderer is likely to commit another crime in the future, but not now. So at that moment, I speculated that the red clothes were not sent by the murderer, and when I ran out of the hotel, I was even more sure of my speculation.

Soon, we came to the door of the police station, where a few cars were parked, and I stopped for a few seconds after a heavy rain and the cars were splashed with mud. I thought of Lao Zhang, several times I came to the police station, I could see him washing the car here, and now that he is dead, no one has come out to wash the car at the police station for a while.

I sighed and walked into the police station with Xu Yi.

The police station was very quiet, and after the case was basically closed, the only thing left for the police force was to sort out the evidence and arrest Xiong Wancheng, which made the police station much less tense than before. But Lao Zhang's death made the police station shrouded in grief. Zhao Da was sitting on a chair smoking with his legs crossed.

I came with Xu Yi, and he didn't notice it either, and it wasn't until I knocked on the door that he turned his head in the direction of the door. Zhao Da glanced at the clock on the wall and immediately stood up. He smiled and welcomed us into the office: "Professor Li, Lao Zhang's memorial service is still early, why are you here so early?" ”

I also smiled: "Captain Zhao, I came to you this time about the case of the woman in red." ”

Hearing my words, Zhao Da's face froze, and immediately, he was a little unhappy, "Professor Li, I have said this many times, and the superiors have decided to close the case, and I can't help it, now I just wait for Xiong Wancheng to be arrested." ”

"What about the inner ghost of the police station?" I asked rhetorically.

Zhao Da was stunned and couldn't speak for a long time. I kept observing Zhao Da's face, he snuffed out the cigarette in the ashtray, and said to me intermittently: "Professor Li, in fact, there are ghosts in the police station, and it has always been our speculation, we have no evidence at all, and we are still panicking, you say ......"

"Li Ke can't guess wrong." Xu Yi interjected. Xu Yi treats people very well, but she never shows mercy to those who question me, there are many people who question me, I have long been used to it, but Xu Yi is always angry.

I wasn't going to continue arguing, so I directly handed the file of the woman in red case to Zhao Da: "Captain Zhao, you're right, it's not good for people in the police station to be panicked, it's me who owe it to think about it, this is the file of the woman in red case, you can take it." "When I said it, neither Xu Yi nor Zhao Da reacted, I rarely gave in, and I rarely overturned my speculation, unless it was really too wrong.

Xu Yi took my hand and clenched it tighter, but she didn't speak again, but lowered her head and thought about something. Xu Yi is very smart and delicate, as long as she thinks about it, she will understand what my purpose is. Zhao Da took the file in a daze, and then he immediately laughed happily: "Professor Li, you can figure it out the best, so that I won't be a difficult person!" ”

I said I wanted to go to the police officer's office and say hello to everyone, and Zhao Da was very happy now and agreed without thinking too much. We followed Zhao Da to the police officer's office, everyone was busy with their own affairs, and when Zhao Da and I came in, everyone immediately stood up.

Only Shen Nuo was squatting on the side alone, she was taking care of Xiao Nan, she didn't react much when she saw me, and continued to talk to Xiao Nan. But Xiao Nan didn't pay attention to Shen Nuo at all, and stared straight in the direction of me and Xu Yi with two eyes.

Zhao Da told everyone that I was leaving soon, so I came to greet everyone. Hearing Zhao Da's words, Shen Nuo finally stood up from the ground and asked me, "You want to leave?" ”

I nodded: "Thank you for your support for so long, I have decided to leave G City after attending Lao Zhang's memorial service." "I watched everyone's expressions, and most of them didn't react, after all, I was not related to them, and I was not even a friend.

However, in the office, there was a person with an imperceptible smile on his face.

I changed my words: "But before leaving, I want to find out the ghosts in the police station!" "Not only that person, but everyone, including Zhao Da beside me, was shocked. Without waiting for Zhao Da to speak, I told everyone about the red clothes I received just now.

As I speculated, the person who gave me the red clothes was unlikely to be the murderer, but more likely to be the murderer's helper, and I don't know how many helpers the murderer had, but inside the police department, there was at least one person. I've always been reluctant to leave G City, the murderer is not afraid, but the inner ghost is afraid.

He knew that the people I cared about the most were Xu Yi and his mother, so he wanted to intimidate me with red clothes and make me leave G City quickly so that his identity would not be found out. But he didn't expect that he underestimated me, the murderer's methods are very clever, and I can't find out for the time being, but it doesn't mean that I can be bullied by everyone.

Hearing my analysis, everyone looked at each other, and I stretched out my hand and pointed at the person who was already sweating profusely: "Right, Xiaogang?" ”

When the name was shouted, everyone's eyes were on Xiao Gang. This person is one of the few people I suspect, I once asked Zhao Da to check this person for me, but as the police decided to close the case, there was no follow-up, and just outside the hotel, the sneaky figure I saw was Xiao Gang.

In fact, there is no need for him to send me any more red clothes, he is self-defeating.

Xiao Gang was very nervous, he refused to admit it, and asked me what evidence I had.

"When you went to Shen Nuo's house, you pretended not to dare to go up with me, you must have reported to the murderer, right? The black cat downstairs died inexplicably, and you should have wanted to scare me for some purpose. My head was dizzy, but I still insisted: "And when I went to Tiemuguan, the rotten face Taoist priest didn't lie, it was you who lied, and you deliberately stayed, probably to destroy the evidence that was not discovered by us for Xiong Wancheng." And the little puppet in Shen Nuo's room was also stuffed into the cracks of the cabinet when everyone was observing Shen Nuo's red clothes, trying to completely transfer the suspicion to Shen Nuo. How many did I guess right? Also, I want to know, how did you steal the headless female corpse god unknowingly and send it back later? ”

I didn't answer Xiao Gang's question directly, although I was already sure in my heart, but I didn't have much other evidence, and the reason why I dared to point him out blatantly was because I thought about his performance just now. He gave away the red clothes, but he still had to hide and peek at my reaction, so he is definitely not a clever person, and I want to destroy his psychological defenses.

Sure enough, he finally couldn't stand it anymore, he grabbed the materials in his hand and threw them at me and Xu Yi, he wanted to escape, but there were so many people in the police station, he was immediately pressed to the ground by everyone.

"Captain Zhao, many suspicious points have not been clarified, and the matter is far from over, please give an order to continue the investigation!"

"No way!" Zhao Da blurted out......
