In order to investigate Bi Xuelan in depth, Xie Yunzhi chose to return to Ningcheng in person, and on the basis of the file, try to find more clues.

It is impossible to achieve zero omissions in the investigation of a case, even if it is a case that has been solved, it will inevitably leave unknown mysteries, Xie Yunzhi is an experienced criminal policeman and knows what to do.

He immediately launched a targeted investigation and ordered his subordinates to collect information about the art exhibition hall two years ago.

Bi Xuelan had been there, which was by far her most direct connection to the case, and before leaving, he communicated with Chen Yi, who suggested that he focus on the exhibition hall, especially the paintings in the exhibition hall.

Two years ago, it was not easy to investigate, the police spent a day and a half, made a lot of inquiries and visits, and finally collected all the paintings in the exhibition hall that year, including not only famous paintings, but also excellent works of local teenagers.

The theme of the exhibition hall is rich, including cultivating and tapping young people's artistic talents, so Bi Xuelan brought Zhou Yumeng to participate in it that year.

In the conference room of the Ningcheng City Bureau, all the paintings were displayed on the big screen, turning the page in ten seconds, Xie Yunzhi and the members of the task force looked carefully.

They used the method of elimination, removing the optimistic works, removing the brightly colored works, and mainly leaving the dark style, insects and animals and other paintings that could arouse fear in the heart.

A dozen left.

There are lifelike serpents, detailed beasts, eerie huts in the dark, rough seas, and suffocating hollow chambers......

Xie Yunzhi glanced at it, but didn't feel anything special.

However, she looks normal, Bi Xuelan is not necessarily normal, the one who knows her best is her husband, Xie Yunzhi decided to see Zhou Yuhe again.

Zhou Yuhe, Bi Xuelan's husband.

Several people left the city bureau and rushed to Zhou Yuhe's house, just before the meal, and the whole family was there.

For Zhou Yuhe, it has been a long time since the police have come to inquire about Bi Xuelan, which undoubtedly provokes his sad memories.

At home, Zhou Yuhe asked his wife and children to go back to the room first, ready to chat with Xie Yunzhi alone.

At the beginning of the case, Zhou Yuhe was actually the focus of Xie Yunzhi's investigation.

In homicides worldwide, 34% of female homicides are committed by husbands or boyfriends, which is real data that cannot be changed, so Bi Xuelan died suddenly, and Xie Yunzhi's first suspicion was Zhou Yuhe.

But Zhou Yuhe had no motive for committing the crime, nor did he have the time to commit the crime, and the Ningcheng police quickly ruled out his suspicion of committing the crime.

Later, Zhou Yuhe quickly married his current wife, almost seamlessly, Xie Yunzhi suspected Zhou Yuhe again after learning about it, and started a second investigation against him.

The second investigation covered a wide range, taking into account the hired murderer, exchange killing, cooperative killing, etc., and finally found that Zhou Yuhe did not have any problems, which completely ruled out his suspicion and no longer paid attention.

For this reason, Zhou Yuhe has always had a grudge against the Ningcheng Criminal Investigation Detachment, especially since he has not caught the murderer for two years, which makes him very dissatisfied.

Facing Xie Yunzhi again, Zhou Yuhe's attitude was not very good, and his expression was serious and dull.

After being a policeman for so many years, Xie Yunzhi has long been used to it, so naturally he will not compare with Zhou Yu, and get straight to the point: "Mr. Zhou, we have set up a special case team for this case, led by the head of the Imperial City Criminal Investigation Corps, and criminal investigation experts as consultants, I hope you can cooperate with our investigation and inquiry, and strive to catch the murderer of your ex-wife as soon as possible." ”

Zhou Yuhe was not hopeful, and the experts of the Imperial City did not arouse his interest: "Captain Xie, just ask any questions, as long as I know something, I will tell you, but I said everything I should have said two years ago, can I find out anything new now?" ”

Xie Yunzhi: "Always try." ”

Zhou Yuhe: "Okay. ”

Xie Yunzhi: "My question is very simple, does Bi Xuelan have anything to fear. ”

"Something to be afraid of?" Zhou Yuehe was inexplicable, "Does this have anything to do with the case?" ”

Xie Yunzhi: "Mr. Zhou can answer the question, and we will judge whether it matters or not." ”

Zhou Yuhe thought for a moment and said: "I'm afraid of a lot, I'm afraid of the dark, I'm afraid of snakes, I'm afraid of spiders, ......."

He said a lot in a row, it is not new, and many ordinary people, especially women, will be afraid.

Xie Yunzhi took out more than a dozen printed paintings and placed them in front of Zhou Yuhe: "Mr. Zhou, take a closer look, is it possible that these paintings will have an emotional impact on Bi Xuelan?" Fear of emotions. ”

Although Zhou Yuhe was dissatisfied with the criminal investigation detachment, after all, he was investigating the case of his deceased wife, and he was still cooperative.

After studying it carefully, Zhou Yuhe's gaze froze, and he pointed to two of the paintings and said: "This one, and this one, Xue Lan should be very uncomfortable if she sees it, and if she looks at it for a long time, she may be dizzy and flustered." ”

Xie Yunzhi lowered his head, it was the deep sea and the secret room.

"What do you mean?" He asked.

Zhou Yuhe: "Xuelan has deep-sea phobia and claustrophobia, and she has been very resistant to taking the elevator for many years of marriage, unless there are other neighbors in the elevator, and when she goes out to buy clothes, she never goes into the fully enclosed fitting room." ”

Xie Yunzhi's eyes froze: "Is it serious?" ”

Zhou Yuhe: "It's more serious than ordinary people, but it doesn't affect normal life." ”

Xie Yunzhi felt that there was an explosion in his head, that is, his thinking was completely opened, and the clues were exchanged.

Bi Xuelan's place of death was in a room in the warehouse, the room was almost completely enclosed with only a small door, if the small door was closed, Bi Xuelan in a bound state was in a confined space, and claustrophobia would definitely explode.

If you show her something "interesting", such as the endless sea and the waves without boundaries, Bi Xuelan's fear will climb to the peak under the superposition.

It was in this state that the murderer launched the so-called emotional plundering of Bi Xuelan, killing her at the scene of the crime in a conscious state.

"Really...... Chen Yi, you are a half-immortal. ”

It can be determined that the murderer's motive for committing the crime is absolutely inseparable from the Seven Feelings, but whether it is related to the Seven Emotions series of oil paintings needs to wait for the results of Chen Yi's investigation.

Nearly two days have passed now, and there is no major news from Chen Yi, and it is estimated that there is no gain for the time being.

In any case, the task on Ningcheng's side is completed, the process is very simple, and the targeted investigation can be easily found, and no one would have thought about this for no reason two years ago.

Heaped by human life.

Xie Yunzhi led people out of Zhou Yuhe's house.

"What kind of psychology does the murderer have, he's really a madman, go, go back to Yang City!"

……

Before receiving the call, Chen Yi was at the scene of Cai Wenwen's death, and this was the third time that the scene was repeated.

Qu Chuan was very quiet, spending most of his time in the hotel, and Qin Fei's investigation of his interpersonal relationships and bank statements did not make any suspicious findings.

Idle is also idle, he did not give up the scene of the crime.

The principle of Lokadian exchange has a deep scientific foundation, and Chen Yi hopes to find physical material exchange and try to find clues from a microscopic perspective.

There are three principles of material exchange: trace exchange, material exchange, impression material exchange, the suspect has a strong anti-reconnaissance ability, traces and impressions have been difficult to make a breakthrough, the advantage of the police lies in modern criminal science and technology, Chen Yi does not believe that the murderer has left nothing behind.

This time, Lu Yongqiang brought sophisticated survey instruments to carry out a more detailed search for the bedroom with limited space, and the substances that are invisible to the naked eye can be seen.

"Hello? Sheych. Chen Yi left the room and answered the phone.

Xie Yunzhi: "Chen Zhi, I found the source of my fear, it is the painting, in the exhibition hall that Bi Xuelan has visited, she has a more serious deep-sea phobia and claustrophobia, there are two related works in the exhibition hall, and I am on my way back." ”

Chen Yi: "Did you tell Team Qin?" ”

Xie Yunzhi: "I have already been informed, there should be a meeting tonight, I heard that the Qin team said that Ding Qingyang is about to arrive and bring the results of the investigation." ”

Chen Yi: "Okay, I'll go back immediately." ”

After hanging up the phone, he informed Lu Yongqiang and asked the other party to continue to investigate the scene, and if he found it, he would immediately return to the bureau for testing, and report it immediately if he had gained.

Eleven p.m.

Yangcheng City Bureau.

The task force gathered and joined the new member Ding Qingyang, but Geng Jianqing did not come.

Xie Yunzhi re-reported the harvest on Ningcheng's side and determined the existence of Bi Xuelan's source of fear, and the source of fear came from oil paintings.

This discovery undoubtedly greatly increased the accuracy of Chen Yi's inference, and the murderer's motive was most likely emotional predation.

This person is pervasive, does not care whether the victim is a painter or not, whether he understands painting or not, as long as the conditions meet the target confirmation, he will immediately formulate a crime plan and put it into action in a short time.

"What a madman!" Xie Yunzhi repeated this sentence, gritting his teeth at the murderer of the sick psychology.

Everyone was silent, and their eyes turned to Ding Qingyang, who spoke: "Fang Dandan, I have checked carefully, if you lean on the seven feelings...... It is also reasonable, she is a very optimistic girl, and friends around her say that she rarely has a bad mood, and she can quickly let go of a breakup and start a new happy life. ”

"It was indeed a coincidence that the exhibition was a coincidence, and Fang Dandan and her friends happened to pass by, and she felt that it was very novel, and she stayed for a long time, and every time she saw a painting she liked, it would be accompanied by pleasant laughter, and laughter was infectious."

"I visited some of these strangers, and they were very impressed by Fang Dandan, and listening to her laughter, it seemed that they were a lot happier."

"Isn't that the emotion of joy and joy?"

The reports of the two captains can basically determine the existence of emotional predation, and the atmosphere in the room is a little depressing.

Chen Yi leaned back in his chair, his left arm hanging there, and his right hand rotating the cigarette case.

Syllable!

He threw the cigarette case on the table, and the sound was very abrupt in the quiet room.

"Dogs, the world is so big." Chen Yi scolded.

Everyone agrees with Chen Yi's words, such an outrageous motive is really rare, rare in a hundred years.

"Captain Chen, isn't it Qu Chuan?" Ding Qingyang asked, how to look at Qu Chuan's suspicion at this moment.

Chen Yi shook his head: "It's not him, but it must be related to him, or related to his paintings, and the investigation of interpersonal relationships has not yet been fruited." ”

Ding Qingyang was helpless: "That's difficult." ”

The room was quiet again, and the pressure was given to Qin He, and the case was investigated so far, it can basically be said that it has entered a deadlock, and it is necessary to clarify the direction of the next investigation.

"Qu Chuan ......," Qin He silently recited his name, "He is not a murderer, so why did the murderer do this?" We consider that the murderer kills people for the sake of creation, and the two-year interval between committing crimes is his creative cycle, but Qu Chuan does not have the conditions to commit crimes, is it possible...... The oil paintings of the Seven Emotions series were not painted by him? ”

Chen Yi looked at Qin He, thinking of a piece, it was necessary to suspect that the original author was not Qu Chuan.

The two looked at each other, and Qin He spoke: "Chen Zhi also thinks so?" ”

Chen Yi nodded: "I have thought about it, but there are no clues to support it for the time being." ”

Other people's minds are open, if the original author is not Qu Chuan, then the current inference dead end will come alive.

"Ghostwriting?" Ding Qingyang said.

Qin He: "There is a possibility, Chen Yi, when you went to see Qu Chuan, did you ask him about the creation of the Seven Emotions series of oil paintings? ”

Chen Yi: "Of course, I asked carefully, and he answered very well, it seems that he is indeed a master with artistic attainments, not like a fake, but I don't understand oil painting, and the evaluation is not a reference for the time being." ”

Qin He was silent for a moment and turned his head: "In this case, we will start investigating from Jincheng." ”

Ding Qingyang: "I have no problem, anyone who had an intersection in the early years can clean him up." ”

At this point in the meeting, there was a sudden knock on the door.

"Come in." Chen Yi spoke, this is his territory.

The door opened, and it was Lu Yongqiang who walked in, and he handed a test report to Chen Yi: "Team Chen, captains, something new was found at the scene of the crime, although the suspect cleaned up, but it was not particularly clean, and the test result was styrene and methylphenylacetic acid, on the floor, almost facing the scene of death." ”

Chen Yi took the report: "That's what I'm waiting for." ”

Qin He: "What is it?" ”

Chen Yi: "I have paid special attention to the main ingredients of oil paints before, it seems that when Cai Wenwen died, the murderer was creating oil paintings in real time, or completing the first draft, he was a painter. ”

"Male, 1.82 meters, 120 pounds, professional painter, strong anti-reconnaissance ability, has pathological obsessive-compulsive disorder, may be related to childhood experience, the murder weapon used is a special bladed oil painting spatula, the killing method is already very proficient, can be fatal with one blow, and the danger is extremely high."

"The image of the suspect is already clear."

When the words fell, Xie Yunzhi immediately spoke: "I suggest summoning Qu Chuan." ”

Ding Qingyang: "Agreed, he definitely has a problem." ”

Qin He glanced at the time, it was very late, but the investigation did not distinguish between morning and night.

"Chen Zhi, call and bring someone over."

"Okay."

Chen Yi took out his mobile phone and was about to dial the number, when the call suddenly came in, it was a subordinate of the team, responsible for monitoring Qu Chuan.

He suddenly had an ominous premonition, Qu Chuan wouldn't have an accident, right?

"Hello? Say. ”

Scout: "Team Chen, there is a situation, the hotel was suddenly surrounded by fans and reporters, I asked, and said that Qu Chuan's new work came out tonight, which shocked the art world, and this is the fifth painting." ”

Chen Yi was slightly stunned.

It's good that nothing happened.

"Okay, I know, grasp the movement of Quchuan, we will be there in a while, don't let him leave the hotel."

"Yes!"

Putting down the phone, Chen Yi spoke: "Quchuan's fifth work came out, and the hotel is very lively. ”

Hearing this, several people looked at each other, so coincidentally?

Qin He quickly made a decision: "Let's go in person and set off immediately." ”

The captain of the tri-city detachment and the captain of the imperial city also participated in the summons of Qu Chuan, which was also an alternative "honor" for him.

The police car drove out of the city bureau, and on the way, the four captains took out their mobile phones to search for news about Quchuan.

Oil paintings are relatively niche, but they can already be seen on the hot search, Qu Chuan posted a photo of the fifth work of the Seven Feelings series on Weibo, the name is [Love].

Chen Yi clicked on the oil painting to enlarge it.

In the center of the picture is a sea of brilliant colors, red as fiery as fire, blue as calm as water, and yellow as bright as light...... They are intertwined, as if dancing silently, playing a quiet movement.

These colors are well handled, sometimes rich and sometimes elegant, with both a warm and unrestrained side and a deep and restrained side.

All around, fragments of different shapes are intertwined, winding like mountain trails, stretching to the end.

The whole painting is full of movement and vitality, the colors are beating, the lines are carnival, and the eagerness is incomparable.

Chen Yi felt a strong emotional impact, as if reminding people of the things he once loved, the dreams he chased, and those passionate days exploded in his memory.

The edges of the picture gradually dimmed, floating to the depth, floating to the unknown and questions, as if asking the viewer: What is true love? Is it a momentary impulse, or is it eternal and long-lasting?

This painting is also admired by the layman, and it blends fiery emotions, endless imaginations, chasing dreams, and profound philosophies in a unique way, which is a step up from the previous four.

No wonder the response was so big, the hotel was surrounded.

Chen Yi stared at his phone for a long time, and for some reason, he vaguely saw Cai Wenwen's shadow from the painting, perhaps a subjective illusion, or the author's deliberateness.

If it is really related to the murder, then this person is a madman and a genius.
