Just as I sat down and was about to communicate with the murderer and exchange hostages, I saw Chen Yuxiu, a forensic doctor from the identification center, call me.

Although he and I are usually friends, we often exchange relevant knowledge and discuss some cases, but the relationship is not so good that I will go to the Three Treasures Hall without incident.

So I guess there's definitely something going on with him.

So I quickly swiped my phone and answered the call.

"Hey, He Yang? I'm Xiao Xiu. "He's not younger than me.

I was silent for a moment before I asked him, "Hugh, is there anything wrong with you?" ”

"Yes, the police found the decomposing corpse in that grove near Huang Zongdao this morning. According to the investigation, the male corpse that was reduced to only bones should be Director Lin's. So would you like to come over for a while? ”

When I heard the news, I suddenly felt a pang of discomfort in my stomach and a little sour in my nose. The tears had come to my eyes in the blink of an eye, blurring my vision, but they hadn't fallen yet.

I choked up and swallowed a few mouthfuls of saliva before I said with difficulty: "Hugh, can you be sure that the body belongs to Director Lin?" ”

"Yes, it's exactly the same as Director Lin's DNA. Moreover, the stumps of Director Lin's previous arms were left here, and the bones found by the police this morning were missing arms. And the real time of death of the deceased is probably in these two days, which can be determined to be within 48 hours, hey! ”

After speaking, Chen Yuxiu may be able to understand my mood at the moment, so he sighed so much.

At the moment, I only felt a tightness in my chest, which made me feel suffocated, dizzy, and nauseous. In fact, I suddenly felt the urge to withdraw from this case and stop investigating.

Because I know Lin Zheng's skills. He and Shen An can actually be regarded as half of my master.

Just ask, how can I deal with the murderer who can't even be dealt with by the two of them?

Anyway, at this moment, I had no confidence at all.

I could hear Chen Yuxiu still talking to me, but his brain was so dull that he couldn't distinguish what he was saying, as if he was saying that the murderer was using lime water to dissolve his body.

I sat very slumped, and my right hand, which was holding the phone, gradually lowered.

At this time, I only felt uncomfortable, I wanted to cry but couldn't cry, and I couldn't make a sound for some reason.

After a long time of being alone in the living room, I heard a "ding dong" sound from my mobile phone, which was the sound of news.

Originally, I didn't want to look at my phone anymore, but I thought that it was most likely the murderer who sent me a message, so I took a deep breath and picked up my phone.

Sure enough, it was the phone number that sent me a message just now: "Do you want to see Xu Ling and Lin Zheng?" If you want to, then you don't have to pay attention to me. This tone is full of threats.

One of the things I hated most in my life was that someone threatened me.

But for the sake of Xu Ling's life, I must not be emotional.

So I cheered up, cheered myself up, and replied, "Okay, so where are we trading?" Don't worry, I won't bring anyone else, but you also have to make sure that Xu Ling is intact. If you can, return Ye Huancheng to me. ”

After waiting for a second, I saw him send a message saying, "Ye Huancheng? I didn't agree to give him back to you. You two are very interesting children, and I want to have fun with him. ”

Seeing this news, I can confirm what Shen An said in his diary, this guy is indeed a very withdrawn and lonely person.

He is actually different from the murderers I have met in the past, he is more ruthless than them, and he gives me the feeling that he is a bit psychopathic. Just like the way he kills, it is different every time, but at least one part of his body, or his whole body, is exposed.

Could it be that he hates the world to the core? It's a possibility, but now is definitely not the time to think about it.

I quickly typed and replied to him: "Don't talk nonsense, hurry up and tell me where the transaction is, otherwise I will give this hard drive to my friend, which contains Shen An's understanding of you." I can't solve the case, but brainstorming, combined with today's big data, will definitely be able to find you out and arrest you. ”

In fact, I still haven't fully understood what big data is. But it sounded lofty, so I deliberately said it to scare him.

But he obviously didn't hit the trick, and replied: "Do you think I'm afraid of the so-called big data and those shrimp soldiers and crab generals? Oh, then you're wrong, I'm afraid of your 250 IQ mind. Don't leave any backup for me to discover, or I'll arrest Xu Ling, which will be a breeze." ”

Is he scornful of me? But why don't you kill me? There is definitely something wrong with the psychology of this person.

While thinking, I replied: "Address." ”

"It's in that key."

The key? What key? I was confused.

I scratched my nose and thought about it for a while, and then I realized that he was talking about the key that was in the gift box last night, but when I saw the paper, I forgot where the gift box was with the key.

After all, I have been thinking about the case in my heart, and I don't have the heart to take care of it so much and study it so carefully. At the time, I thought the key was just an ornament, because its presence was so obvious that there were clues hidden in it, and it didn't look like a murderer's style at all.

But now it seems that the murderer's anti-investigation ability is quite strong.

So I took more and more care of the murderer, and I felt that he was a rare ghost, and at the same time a tricky potato.

I searched the room two or three times before I found that the cabinet had been placed by me on the TV cabinet yesterday and had fallen into a gap close to the wall.

It took me a long time to remove the TV and the TV cabinet before I took out the gift box from the crack. When I opened it and saw that the key was still there, I breathed a sigh of relief.

But before I could relax, I had another problem.

On top of this delicate and quaint key, I only saw a hollowed-out and embossed skull, but other than that, the whole key looked very normal and not the slightest strange.

So I sent him an MMS message, took a picture and sent it to him, and asked, "What's the clue here?" If you don't give me a hint, how can I guess? And you don't have a certain time to trade. ”

He also sent an MMS message, with a smiling expression and a sentence: "You think about it slowly, time is there, and when you think of it, it's okay to trade when you want, but first of all, I will cut off one of Xu Ling's fingers every day." ”
