In the early hours of the morning, it is the time when everything is silent, even the bustling Yangcheng is no exception.

There is no hustle and bustle of the day and revelry of the night, all that remains is silence and depth, and the whole city is gently shrouded in the light moonlight and the breeze is ethereal through the streets.

At this moment, the neon lights have long been asleep, and occasionally there are lights shining in the 24-hour convenience store, as if welcoming a new dawn in the city.

There are few pedestrians on the road, and the only thing that can break the quiet is the night taxis.

And, of course, night owls and young people who linger in bars and clubs.

It's early in the morning, but the city hasn't stopped, and the cleaners have already begun to sweep the roads, and if you look down from above, you can see them everywhere.

The breakfast stall was also set up, ready for the new day's work, steaming steamers, with the fragrance of meat buns.

If there are those who are open for business, there are naturally those who are closed.

Red seductive lights are one of them.

They went out day and night, finished the night's work, rejoiced in tonight's harvest, and looked forward to the future life.

Persevere, persist for another year or two, you can save a lot of money, not to mention financial freedom, at least have the capital to live well in this city.

Or......

It is also a good choice to return to your hometown and find an honest man who does his duty to marry.

Conscientious work? It doesn't exist, it's impossible to work part-time, and a job of a few thousand dollars a month can be earned overnight.

In a remote alleyway in the city, a tall woman with heavy makeup closed the door of the massage parlor and prepared to go back to her rental house for a good night's sleep.

That's how she lives her whole day, sleeping during the day and working at night until the wee hours of the morning.

The tall woman seemed to be in a good mood, although her face was tired, her smile had not disappeared, and it seemed that she had made a lot of money in business.

Da!

Da!

Da!

With the sound of tall women's high heels falling to the ground, she walked slowly along the deep alleyway, ready to take a taxi.

The woman was humming a little song, and the main road of the city street was getting closer and closer in front of her.

At this moment, a man appeared under the distant sight, not standing, but lying.

She was stunned for a moment, thinking that the man's clothes were a little familiar, as if they were the last customer she had received.

She remembered that the other party was quite young, in his early twenties, like a college student, who drank a lot of alcohol at that time, and was also very generous.

Therefore, she did not drive the other party away, and took care of the service very thoughtfully, which became her last customer today.

How to lie here?

Did you drink too much and sleep on the floor?

She did drink a lot of alcohol and was very impressed.

The woman didn't stop and continued to walk forward, thinking that after all, she was a guest, and she should call the other party up in the spirit of the service industry, and care about it, she would still work here in the future, and the main thing was to repeat the customer.

As time passed, the two sides got closer and closer, and the woman just wanted to shout to wake up the other party, but at this moment the voice was blocked in her throat, and her footsteps stopped abruptly.

Under her long eyelashes, extreme horror flashed in her eyes, and her complexion, which had been fair with makeup, was even whiter at the moment.

What did she see?

The man's throat was slit, and blood was spilled all over the ground, which was shocking.

This is not the most important thing, what makes the woman feel the chill and go straight to the sky is the man's weird smile and wide eyes!

No, it's not.

It wasn't a weird smile, it was a face that had been cut open with a knife, stretching from the corners of the mouth to the ears.

It wasn't wide-open eyes, it was empty, black, bloody eyes, only blood and no eyeballs.

This is the most terrifying picture a woman has ever seen in her life, and the next moment, a scream sounds.

"Ah!!h

The woman's first reaction was not to call the police, and after falling to the ground in fright, she got up and ran, losing a high heel in the process.

She panicked, threw away the other high heel as well, ran wildly, and soon disappeared at the other end of the alleyway.

This place has many lanes, and there is more than the road ahead.

Around, there was silence again, only the lonely and terrifying corpse, lying there desolately, waiting for the next "destined person" to find out, until the police were called.

……

Haitian Residence.

This high-end community is located in the center of Yangcheng, with a large flat area of 280 square meters, and the unit price is very high, and there are still not many people who can afford it.

Chen Yi's house is here, and after the furniture was delivered yesterday, he and Fang Shuyu have already moved in.

The early morning sunlight spilled into the bedroom, shining on the faces of Chen Yi and Fang Shuyu, and also reflecting the clothes all over the floor.

It was a bit intense last night, but thankfully the soundproofing was good.

Fang Shuyu moved his eyes, but did not open them, and shrank into Chen Yi's arms.

Chen Yi woke up, looking at the girl in his arms, he smiled slightly.

After the two of them stayed in bed for more than half an hour, they finally got up and dressed, and Fang Shuyu went to the kitchen to make breakfast.

After eating, Fang Shuyu was just about to put the dishes in the dishwasher, but was hugged by Chen Yi from behind.

Even loose pajamas can't hide Fang Shuyu's bumpy figure, which is very charming.

"What are you doing? Busy. ”

Fang Shuyu reminded the other party not to disturb himself to clean up his things.

Chen Yi nodded: "Hmm." ”

Fang Shuyu didn't react: "Huh? ”

The next moment, with her exclamation, she was picked up by Chen Yi and entered the bedroom.

Only then did Fang Shuyu understand what Chen Yi meant, although he had experienced it last night, his shyness had not disappeared.

"Don't ...... Don't make a fuss! ”

The strength of the refusal is obviously very small.

Chen Yi was just about to make a move, when his mobile phone rang on the bedside table.

Fang Shuyu turned his head to look, picked up his mobile phone and handed it over: "It seems to be Zhuo Yun." ”

Chen Yi's enthusiasm was extinguished, and the ominous premonition came again.

"Hello? Brother Yun. ”

Zhuo Yun's voice was very anxious: "Team Chen! There is a case! Homicide case! Sanitation workers call the police! ”

Chen Yi became serious: "Where is it?" ”

Zhuo Yun: "In the middle of Longquan Road, there is an old house there, someone was killed in the alley, and the police said that their eyes were gone!" And the face is very scary! ”

Chen Yi: "Okay, I know, you deal with it first, control the scene, we will arrive later, and let the forensic assistant bring everything." ”

Zhuo Yun: "Yes! ”

There was a murder, and he didn't have the heart to play word games and gossip with Chen Yi.

The phone hung up, and Fang Shuyu on the other side had already opened the wardrobe and started looking for clothes, and she could guess from listening to the content of the phone call that there must have been a big case.

"Shuyu, you don't need to go to the city bureau, let's go directly to the scene."

Fang Shuyu nodded: "Okay." ”

Subsequently, the two dressed and went out as fast as they could, and drove towards the scene of the crime.

After arriving at the place, I could see many police cars parked on the side of the road, the police lights flashing, and a cordon had been set up near the entrance of the alley.

"Deputy Chen."

Seeing Chen Yi, the police from the police station who came the fastest set up a cordon to let the other party in.

Chen Yi nodded, and walked into the alley with Fang Shuyu, when the new they had already arrived, there were many digital signs on the ground, including high heels scattered on the ground in the distance.

Everyone made way for Chen Yi.

When he came closer, Chen Yi's gaze was on the deceased, and his gaze immediately froze.

Empty eyes, a terrifying smile, such a strange and cruel killing method is really rare.

He turned his head to look at the high heels in the distance, the shoes would definitely not be the dead, then there were three possibilities.

Murderer's.

Passing pedestrians.

Friends of the deceased.

Looking further away, although the lights of the massage parlor are turned off, the words on the sign can still be recognized.

This laneway is the red light district.

In this case, the owner of the high heels is likely to be a prostitute.

What about the dead?

Was the deceased a prostitute?

In a short two seconds, Chen Yi thought a lot, this is his habit of thinking,

On the other side, Fang Shuyu was also shocked by the deceased's death, took the clothes and gloves handed by the forensic assistant, and prepared to start the preliminary autopsy.

Judging from the wound and the amount of blood flowing from the throat of the deceased, it should be a fatal wound.

Cut your throat and kill people.

During his forensic work, Chen Yi looked down at his surroundings and cautiously walked along the scene to the massage parlor in front of him.

Behind him, Shi Xin and others followed.

When he came to the door of the massage parlor, the door was locked, and Chen Yi leaned close to the glass door and looked inside for a while, then retracted his gaze.

He continued to observe left and right, there were four roads in the laneway of this place, all of which could leave the scene, and at this moment, each road was blocked by a cordon, and there were police officers standing guard to prevent the onlookers from approaching.

No matter what time it is, there will always be no shortage of people to watch the excitement.

Shi Xin said: "There is too little monitoring nearby, almost none, and you can only check when you leave the roadway and go to the main road." ”

Chen Yi nodded and said, "It is precisely because of the lack of monitoring that the massage parlor will be opened here." ”

There is more than one massage parlor, which can be seen sporadically in the distance, but they are all closed.

Shi Xin turned his head to look at the massage parlor next to him and said, "Those high heels, I don't know which store they are, the murderer shouldn't be the person in the shop, right?" ”

Chen Yi turned around: "The distance between the two high-heeled shoes is more than ten meters, and the owner of the shoes is scared away in a panic when he sees it, and there is a high probability that he did not call the police after finding the body and chose to leave." ”

"It's all scared like that, but it's not like the psychological quality of a murderer."

When Xin: "Yes, the wounds on the face and the lost eyes all show that the murderer did not leave immediately after killing people, but was dealing with the rest of the matter very calmly, no matter what the motive is, the psychological quality is definitely very strong." ”

Chen Yi: "We need to find the owner of these high heels, and it is not possible to rule out whether she is an eyewitness or not." ”

The discovery of the body is only a more likely situation, perhaps the owner of the high heels not only found the body, but also saw the murderer killing, but the murderer was clearly targeted and ignored.

When Xin: "This is easy to do, just sweep this street, or let the security brigade help, they are proficient in business." ”

Chen Yi snorted, turned his head and said, "Brother Yun, call Lao Cao and tell him that he is coming to work, and try to catch everyone today." ”

Usually, the criminal investigation detachment will not take care of these things, but when it comes to murder cases, those who should be arrested must be arrested.

Zhuo Yun: "Okay. ”

Several people returned to the scene of the crime, and the autopsy continued, by which time the deceased's clothes had been lifted and new wounds appeared.

It was on the chest, a straight one, extending from the lower part of the neck to the navel.

Chen Yi squatted down and looked at it, the wound was not very deep, it just cut the flesh and skin, and there was no damage to his clothes.

Obviously, the murderer deliberately lifted the clothes of the deceased, leaving this wound on the deceased's body.

Lost eyes.

A "smile" that extends from the corners of the mouth to the ears.

A straight wound on the chest.

The murderer's motives are very strange.

"Can you see anything?" When to ask again.

Chen Yi shook his head: "It's hard to say, I hope we don't meet a serial killer, if it's just revenge, isn't there too many symbols?" ”

The word serial killer is quite sensitive, not only when the new color changes, but Fang Shuyu and others are also raising their heads.

Now that the case has just happened, and the identity of the deceased is not known, why did he suddenly bring up the possibility of a serial killer?

Shi Xin couldn't help but say: "Where is it like a serial killer?" ”

Chen Yi pointed to the deceased's chest and said, "What do you think is the purpose of this straight line?" Lifting the deceased's clothes and scratching it can't be a whim, right? ”

When Xin lowered his head and stared at the line for a while, the more he looked at it, the more it looked like a ...... Figure 1.

“1？ No way?! "When the new frowned.

Chen Yi said: "I hope not, if another number 2 pops up, then the matter will be a big deal." ”

When Xin was silent, he continued to stare at the wound in the deceased's chest.

It's bad, let Chen Yi remind him like this, the more he looks at it, although it's just a guess, but guessing is sometimes more worrying.

The unknown is the most terrifying.

After a long time, Fang Shuyu stopped working and said: "A male corpse, one meter seven or eight tall, fatally wounded in the throat, only one knife was used, the cause of death was suffocation and excessive blood loss, the deceased's eyes were gouged out, and scratches one centimeter deep could be seen from the corners of his mouth to his ears. ”

"The zombies and corpse spots have just appeared and have not yet begun to spread, and the preliminary judgment of the time of death is about four hours."

When the new surprise: "Four hours? So short? Wait...... A knife?! ”

Chen Yi glanced at the time, which means that the murderer killed the victim at about half past three in the morning.

Almost...... It's also time for the massage parlor to close and get off work, just in time for the pair of scattered high heels.

A certain woman after work found the corpse, and was so frightened by the tragic appearance of the corpse that her soul flew away, and she lost her shoes and ran wildly.

There was no alarm.

If she chooses to call the police, the police can get to the scene of the crime more quickly and may be able to find more clues.

There is no way to do it, it is the freedom of others not to report the body to the police.

"Oh, the deceased's mobile phone, it has not been used and there is still power." Fang Shuyu picked up a bag of evidence, "There is only one mobile phone, and no ID card or other items that can prove identity have been found on the body." ”

When to take it up: "It's enough to have a mobile phone." ”

The phone is still there, at least it's not a robbery, and there's no need to gouge people's eyes out for a robbery.

This is either perverted or purposeful venting of anger.

Chen Yi: "Ask all the residents and sanitation workers in the vicinity, including the 24-hour convenience store, and ask anyone you can. ”

Zhuo Yun: "Yes, Team Chen." ”

Chen Yi: "Brother Qiang, what's the situation with the footprints?" ”

Lu Yongqiang was lying on the ground and surveying carefully, and said when he heard the words: "There are a lot of footprints, there are too many people coming and going, and they have been photographed and rubbed." ”

Chen Yi nodded and looked at the deceased's neck again.

Only one knife?

That's kind of awesome.
