"I know, I'll contact you if you have other things, I'll reply to Officer Zhou's message first."

"Huh? Oh, oh......"

Zhang Shanshan on the other end of the phone hesitated a few times.

hung up the phone and flipped through the message sent by Zhou Yong.

The message is displayed as 99 plus, but in fact only the top few are of practical value, and the rest are all meaningless spaces and periods.

“……”

"It's his style, that's right."

When the message flipped to the top, what caught my eye was a photo, the content of which did not contain any thrilling and bloody scenes, just a crumpled note with a few lines crookedly written on it.

"I can't wait for dawn. Dr. Su, she didn't show up again in her sleep just now, which shows that your hypnotherapy is very useful.

But it was already too late, my name had already been written on the funeral list, and only now did I understand that the curse would not stop when it began, and that she wanted more people to hear the cry.

Once the name appears on the list, it is guaranteed to die unless it is finished before the curse is resolved. And I—and I'm too late, I'm a cold corpse, dead the first time I stepped into that world, I just didn't want to believe it.

You can't escape, Dr. Su~ Because the next one is you......"

The words of the last sentence are distorted to the point where they are almost indecipherable, as if the writer was suffering some kind of great pain.

It's a bit like two consciousnesses in a body fighting for control.

Close the image and continue scrolling down the message.

The meaning of the text is that if you have time today, it is best to go to the scene.

"Uh-huh, looks like I really have to go today."

made up his mind, woke up and immediately changed his clothes, and after a simple wash, he rode out on a small electric donkey.

……

Awakening is the first time to go to the place where Lin Lu lives, but the specific address assistant Shanshan has already sent it.

The sky was drizzling with a light rain, and the clouds in the sky were not heavy, but they were just right to hide the sun.

The weather is changeable this season, and maybe the next moment this light rain will turn into a torrential rain.

Su Xing stood on the stone pavement of the destination community, looking up at the tenth floor of the building in front of him.

That was the room where Lin Lu lived, but the cordon downstairs was not directly below his balcony.

"From the point of view, it looks like I jumped from the window of the hallway."

If it's suicide, why do you want to run to the corridor and jump?

Maybe it was controlled by a strange way, and then accidentally fell from the window of the hallway while fighting for control of the body?

The idea is a little crazy.

However, this assumption can explain why the note left by Lin Lu before his death had two different handwritings.

"It's useless to guess, maybe we should call up the monitoring and analyze it."

Retract your gaze and walk into the unit door in front of you.

"Ahem!"

The deliberately aggravated cough activated the voice-activated lights in the hallway, and the yellowed light dispelled the darkness and created a clear safety zone.

Perhaps because it was still early, the elevator was not being used by anyone else.

When the button is pressed, the elevator opens with a clang.

Just as he woke up and was about to step in, the voice-activated lights on the top and the lights in the elevator flickered and went out completely.

"Ahem!"

He coughed vigorously again, but no lights came on.

Looking back inside the elevator, the smooth metal walls reflected themselves, but the reflection seemed a little hideous.

In a trance, the brain was somewhat uncontrollably giving instructions to go in.

But fortunately, the thought was short-lived and faint.

Something is wrong, no, it's just a big thing!

The scene was a little weird, it didn't look like some kind of hallucination of fatigue.

"Isn't it, it's getting dawn, so you really stare at me?"

Su Xing complained with a disgusted face.

In the blink of an eye, the scene in the reflection changed, and there was an extra person who had only his own image.

The extra one is Lin Lu, who has committed suicide.

He was saying something with pain on his face, but he was strangled by the man behind him.

Lin Lu struggled with all his might, but the amplitude of his limbs became weaker and weaker, until he was silent, and was pushed down again.

This ...... Is it the scene before Lin Lu's death?

Looking at the elevator wall and only his own reflection remained, the awakening brain was a little short-circuited.

What does that mean? I can't explain that I killed him.

Could it be that this is a weird inducement?

I didn't understand what the situation was, but it was not a good thing after all, and in line with the principle of not being able to suffer, I threw a middle finger casually.

Stomp stomp.

There was a sound at the staircase of the safe passage, and the sound of hurried footsteps re-lit the voice-activated lights, dispelling the darkness around them.

At the top of the stairs, a young man in a police uniform walked out, holding a mobile phone, as if calling someone.

"Who lives in a big pineapple in the deep sea ~ SpongeBob SquarePants ~ Sponge ......"

The cheerful music instantly broke the terrifying atmosphere that had been brewing for a long time.

The mobile phone in the wake pocket rang just right, making the two of them stunned for a moment when they looked at each other.

“……”

“……”

"Uh...... What, Brother Su, why did you come so fast, I thought you were on the way, thinking about asking you to help me bring something. ”

The young man in the police uniform is Zhou Yong, he is a high school classmate with himself, one year lower, but he admires himself very much, and even the university he was admitted to was the police academy next door.

"Am I not happy? Anyway, it's also a patient under my hands. ”

As he spoke, Su Xing turned his head to look at the elevator and found that his clear reflection had long been gone.

Under the light, everything reflected off the metal walls is blurred.

"Brother Su, what are you doing standing here? This elevator is broken. ”

Zhou Yong took back his mobile phone and ended the inopportune ringtone by the way.

"Broken?"

Wake up and wonder what to say.

"yes, it broke when we came, and I remember there was a warning sign."

Zhou Yong stepped forward and tried to point out the location of the warning sign, but after looking for a long time, he couldn't find it.

"Huh? What about the brand? Which one lacks virtue and took it! And how can this broken elevator work, if someone walks in without knowing the situation, who is responsible! It's just nonsense. ”

Zhou Yong, who has always had a strong sense of justice, pulled out the walkie-talkie for the first time and began to contact colleagues.

"Brother Su, you are fortunate that I came down in time, otherwise you would have had an accident if you couldn't keep it when you entered the elevator."

“……”

"Let's get down to business with me first."

woke up and scolded all the other party's idle nonsense back.

Speaking of business, Zhou Yong's expression suddenly became serious, and he pointed to the stairs and gestured to talk while walking.

"It was about three o'clock in the morning, and it was almost four o'clock when we received a report that someone had committed suicide by jumping off a building. We arrived as soon as possible, but by the time we got to the scene, he had no vital signs. We found out in the deceased's room that he happened to have been to your clinic yesterday......"

Su Xing nodded slightly, indicating that he understood.

"Well, I understand, the process still has to go."

Hearing this, Zhou Yong hurriedly waved his hand.

"Brother Su, don't get me wrong, what we mean here is that you are the last person the deceased came into contact with, and you are an expert in psychology. So I just wanted to ask you, did he show suicidal tendencies or something when he was in your clinic? Or can you determine if he has some kind of definite mental illness.

Although all the evidence now suggests that he committed suicide, we must know a little more and rule out all the possibility of homicide. ”

Su Xing was slightly silent, no one must believe this kind of thing, and even if the person in front of him believes it, he can't explain this set of words to the outside world.

So......

"We only talked for half an afternoon, and he made an appointment for me to come here today, but I didn't expect it......

But to be honest, as far as I know, Lin Lu did show signs of self-harm, but he shouldn't have committed suicide. The initial conclusion I gave was schizophrenia, but it was only half an afternoon, and I can't be completely sure.

Maybe you can check his medical records, he must have been examined in other hospitals, you should have checked it already, right? What do other doctors say? ”

The tone of Su Xing's deep voice sounded like an old policeman leading a newcomer, which made Zhou Yong stunned for a moment after listening to it.

"Yes, I've asked two, and that's pretty much what they said."

"Oh, by the way, what do you mean by that photo you sent me?"

Wake up suddenly thought of something, and asked again.

Speaking of the note in the photo, Zhou Yong's face changed, and he did not answer directly.

"You'd better go up and see for yourself."
