After the elevator door closed, I fell to my knees with weak legs, and I didn't feel any pain, or even my knees at all.

Li Xu helped me up, gritted his teeth and said, "You hold me up!" ”

Her words sounded so familiar, and I thought about it for a while and remembered that a few hours ago, the lazy man said this to Dai Furong and held it up for me.

When my mind was blank just now, I completely forgot about Dai Furong, and I suddenly remembered that my legs were weak and I was about to kneel down again.

Li Xu lifted me steady, and gritted his teeth in my ear: "You won't hold up, don't put your eyes on and prepare to take the move, if you don't make it good, we will all have to die, who else can help you when you see it!" ”

She said so seriously, I was really afraid that she would curse herself to death, so I looked at her in a panic, and saw her face blue and her eyes breathing fire, as if she was going to battle.

With a ding, the elevator door opened, and the smell of blood came to my nose, and I stepped back as if I was afraid, against the wall of the elevator, full of panic.

Liu Yimin and Wang Dongsheng were standing at the door, and when they saw us, they immediately greeted us.

Wang Dongsheng pressed his hand on my shoulder, stared at my eyes very hard and said, "Listen, Nier, you have to be strong no matter what, Xiaohai is inside, she has polluted the scene, you have to persuade her to get up, otherwise I won't be able to start working." ”

I grabbed his clothes, tears flowed down my face, and I shook my lips and said to him, "I will see that your people are all empty, how can you make me strong." ”

He continued to stare at me calmly and said, "Take a deep breath. ”

I listened to him and took a deep breath.

He said, "Take another deep breath." ”

I took another deep breath.

He said: "Listen, Nier, you know very well how important the scene investigation is in the process of investigating the case, so now, you must be brave, be strong, walk in with me, persuade Xiaohai to come out, let us start work, and strive to catch the murderer in the shortest time." ”

When I heard him say "murderer", I felt a crazy force rush into my blood, yes, murderer, we have to catch the murderer.

I walked in step by step, walked into Bai Yafeng's home, walked into the living room, closed my eyes and took a deep breath, and then took a deep breath.

It's all blood, Bai Yafeng's blood.

Then I opened my eyes.

Xiao Hai sat on the ground with her back to the dining table, Bai Yafeng was so quiet in her arms as if she was asleep, and the floor was covered with black and red blood.

She didn't cry, she didn't go crazy, she just sat quietly, held Bai Yafeng in her arms, and sat there quietly, her eyes looking at a certain point in the void, and she was humming a song softly in her throat.

It's "Amazing Grace."

The one that Li Xu often hums.

She hummed out of tune, so I couldn't hear it for a while.

I broke free of the hands held by Li Xu and Wang Dongsheng, and walked over step by step, every step was as thrilling as if I was about to step into the air and fall off a cliff at any time.

From the living room to the dining room, the distance of a few meters is like walking for hundreds of years.

There was a lot of energy in my blood, my mind became clearer and clearer, and with each step, I became more sober, and by the time I got closer, I knew exactly what I was going to do and what to do. I have to use the most direct, simplest and most brutal way to let Xiaohai understand my thoughts, let her blood ignite the same power as me, let her obediently obey, let go of Bai Yafeng, so that the forensic department can come in to collect evidence, let everything start according to the normal mode, and then we will treat it in an abnormal mode.

I walked around the blood on the floor, walked to Xiaohai's left, bent down, and whispered a word in her ear in a voice as low as a stream of air that could not be heard.

I said, "Get up, we have to catch the murderer before the police, and we have to cut it with a thousand cuts." ”

The song in her throat snapped to a halt.

I saw Bai Yafeng's unsightly face in her arms, this face, how familiar it is, almost every time she sees me, she almost smiles, but now, if she doesn't smile, she won't smile in the future.

Finally, Xiao Hai's wandering soul condensed back into his body, and his eyes became more and more fierce, more and more ruthless, and more and more terrifying.

She moved slowly, and Wang Dongsheng and Liu Yimin, who were waiting, hurriedly stepped forward to help, and carefully put Bai Yafeng back to the state in which the crime occurred in the shape of bloodstains.

Fu Yuxin asked Xiaohai next to him if he could stand firm. She nodded. Ask her if she can walk on her own. She tried to lift her legs up, but she trembled too much, and the whole person fell to the side like a mountain, Fu Yuxin had to break the rules of those forensics, reached out to help Xiaohai, and led her to the sofa in the living room to sit down.

After Xiao Hai sat down firmly in the sofa, his eyes slowly moved to the bedroom door, and suddenly he went crazy, pulling his dry throat and calling me hysterically.

I was startled by the desperate cry in her voice, and rushed over in a frenzy.

Xiao Hai raised his trembling right hand and pointed to the master bedroom.

The door to the master bedroom was hidden, and two white-gloved policemen stood by the door looking at me in pain.

The master bedroom is the old man's room, against the wall to the door, there is a floor-to-ceiling dressing mirror, that is because the nanny often puts the old man in the recliner by the window to bask in the sun, he is busy in the living room or dining room, afraid that he will be lonely, put a mirror in that position, he can see the mirror from time to time There are figures in the mirror, and he will not feel too lonely and lonely.

I compared the mirror with the angle of the murder scene.

In other words, when the murder occurred, if the old man was on the balcony recliner as usual and the bedroom door was open, he might have witnessed his son's tragic death through the mirror.

And the pained expressions of the two policemen at the door clearly told me that things were indeed as I imagined.

I staggered towards the bedroom, the distance of these steps, as far as the previous ones, long and difficult, with almost all my strength.

The old man sat in the chair in front of the window facing the mirror, his face full of tears, which seemed to flow from his whole life, and the smell of sadness was so strong that it was suffocating. I walked over slowly, crouched down and carefully wiped his tears. I said old man, you wait, wait for me to cut off the murderer and avenge Yafeng. I trembled my lips and said Old man, I can't cry with you now, I'm afraid that if I cry, my heart will be scattered, and I won't have the strength to catch the murderer, so don't cry, old man, don't make me shed tears, I have to save up my strength, get things done beautifully, and I want to take revenge, and I can't fold Xiaohai into it.

Although he was still weeping, I believed that he understood me, so I hugged him and stood up to go out.

Out of the corner of my eye, I suddenly caught a glimpse of something on the desk.

It is a marriage certificate.

Two big red marriage certificates were neatly rested on the desk, I stretched out my trembling hand and picked it up and opened it, through a thin layer of tears, I vaguely saw the photo of Bai Yafeng and Xiaohai smiling at each other, stamped with a big red seal, the time was a month and a half ago.

A little calculation, it should be that we went to Huaqiao Town to find Zhou Hong to inquire about Xia Dongyi and Xia Xiaoyu's clues in the past few days, they hid from everyone and got the certificate, they are an upright legal couple, today the old man has a birthday, they took him home from the hospital, made a table of delicious food, bought a cake, and called me to come to dinner, saying that there is a big thing to announce to me.

I remembered Yafeng's proud tone on the phone: No matter how important your matter is, can you have my concern, hurry up and give me a meal to die.

I finally couldn't hold it, and I knelt on the ground with my hands on the table and started crying, crying until my whole body convulsed, and I almost cried to death.

Li Xu rushed in to help, but he couldn't help me. She suppressed her throat and scolded: "Cry your mother's legs, get up for me, Liu Yimin has something to say to you." ”

I was dragged out of the old man's room by her, and several forensics in the living room were doing live evidence for Xiaohai, because she destroyed the scene, and there may be a slight transfer of physical evidence. Xiao Hai's gaze moved with me step by step, cold as a snake. The strength I gave her just now returned to my blood with her gaze on me, and when I finally walked out the door, I didn't need help.

Li Xu took out two cigarettes and stuffed them into his mouth, lit them, handed one to me, and said, "Smoke it, it's a little beneficial, just don't get addicted." ”

I shook and nodded, pinched the cigarette and inhaled hard, choked on tears, dizzy again, shaking and about to fall, Li Xu held on.

Liu Yimin walked out of it, patted me on the back while leading me into the elevator, helped me stand firmly, pressed the button on the top floor, went to the roof, snatched the remaining half of the cigarette from my mouth and threw it on the ground to extinguish it, and didn't say comforting words, and went straight to the topic: "I looked at Yafeng's mobile phone, and the last call was made to you, did you hear anything wrong?" For example, was there anyone next to him at that time? ”

By this time I was awake, my mind racing through all the relevant and irrelevant details, including the strange strokes of blood next to the corpse and the two fingertip streaks of blood on the bedroom door.

I told Liu Yimin that when Bai Yafeng and I were on the phone, the doorbell rang, and he said that the gas change was coming, so he hung up the phone.

Liu Yimin thought for a moment, shook his head and said, "No. At that time, it was the murderer who rang the doorbell. The man who changed the gas arrived at about 10:00 a.m., and there were witnesses downstairs. When he arrived, the door was open, and when he pushed the door in, he saw Xiaohai holding the corpse......"

When he said "corpse", he instinctively stopped, and immediately changed his statement: "I saw Xiaohai holding Yafeng, there was blood on the ground, and I immediately called the police after staying for a while, he was the first person to find it except Xiaohai, and judging from all aspects, he would not be a murderer." ”

After speaking, he carefully looked at my face, and after confirming that I was emotionally stable, he added: "An acquaintance did it." ”

Of course I do.

The murder weapon inserted in Yafeng's body was a boning knife in his kitchen, although Bai Yafeng was not smart, he was not so stupid as to let a person he didn't know or know very well into his kitchen without staring, so it could only be an acquaintance who committed the crime.

I ignored Liu Yimin, only frantically recalling the scene I saw just now, focusing on the mark next to Yafeng.

A mark drawn in blood.
