Chapter 357: The Seventh Chapter of the Night

No matter what the process is, in short, it can be regarded as temporarily supported by Chu Qianmian and Chen Jinzhi.

Of course, the cat ears didn't look at it.

Su Chengyi felt a little regretful.

However, Chen Jinzhi asked him to save this for the next time they met.

Well. I always feel a sense of sympathy for being threatened.

But who cares? That's Chen Jinzhi wearing cat ears, who doesn't want to see it.

Su Chengyi put away the messy thoughts and put his thoughts back on business.

Yu Xia's case, the difficulty of wanting to investigate is very high.

He had thought about this question before, reality was not, and there were no dead schoolchildren and detectives Sherlock in reality.

With his own ability, trying to pick up this case again, which even the police can't do anything about, is like climbing to the sky on foot.

What's more, according to the current information, it can be understood that the suspect is actually not difficult to find, and he even stood in front of everyone.

It's a pity that there is no evidence, and no one can do anything about him.

With Chu Yuanjiang's status and means, he couldn't find a breaking point.

The only person who has a certificate cannot provide any valid information.

How to say it, Su Chengyi subjectively agreed with Chu Yuanjiang's opinion.

It's a dead end, there's no need to drill into it.

Moreover, what kind of person Wu Shaobo is now seems to be very clear.

Chu Yuanjiang described him as "like a dead man crawling out of a grave".

If this description is not clear enough, then the state of Yu Xia and Zhou Yan, the two survivors who had direct contact with him and barely survived, is enough to explain a lot of things.

If he stops here, then Su Chengyi may not have anything to do with such a dangerous person in his life.

If you choose to continue the investigation, it will almost be equivalent to declaring war on Wu Shaobo head-on.

Even though it is now a society governed by the rule of law, people like him who live on the dark side of society are still very dangerous.

He is like a rat in the gutter, a poisonous snake in the sewers, a gangster who can hide in every blind spot.

And the truth that a gentleman does not stand under a dangerous wall, of course Su Chengyi understands.

But he also always believed that evil does not prevail over good.

Just like when the teacher asked him why he chose law in class, his mind has not changed.

Although the power of an individual is small, as long as one person is willing to stand up, it will ignite a sense of justice in the hearts of more people.

So, at least in this kind of time when everyone else is giving up, he can't back down.

Whatever the outcome, it at least proves that he has the courage to face and confront sin.

After thinking it through, Su Chengyi suddenly felt a lot more relaxed in his heart, as if a big stone that had been pressing on his heart for a long time was suddenly removed.

Sure enough, it's not that it's hard to walk, it's the time when you're struggling with whether to walk or not is the hardest.

The decision has been made, and the thinking has become clearer.

Su Chengyi decided to start with Yu Xia's case.

Although compared to Zhou Yan's matter, the time interval is longer, and it is more difficult to investigate.

But as the saying goes, good and bad depend on each other, and the more information can be obtained from it.

Su Chengyi began to search on the Internet.

Because it is still an unsolved case, there is very little content that can be found on the surface.

A family in Tang'an City was tragically broken into the house by gangsters, and only a little daughter of a family of four survived, and the police suspected that it was a vendetta.

There is only an extremely vague description of what is already known.

Of course, the victim's specific information is hidden, including the name and address, etc.

Su Chengyi tried to search for "Yu Xia" on the browser, but to no avail.

He thought about it for a while, and then decided to change his perspective.

If you don't know anything from official sources, you may be able to start from a private perspective.

In such a big case, even if the police suppress public opinion, many citizens will definitely discuss it.

In this way, the information obtained will be more detailed and rich, but the authenticity is relatively doubtful, and a certain degree of identification ability is required.

He landed on a local forum in Tang'an City and searched for the keyword "family of four".

Sure enough, a lot of discussion posts popped up, but most of them were seven years ago, probably not long after the case.

Although it was a rare big case, the discussion gradually subsided as time went on.

"8u, have you heard? A family of four. ”

"I must have heard, just over there on Fenglin Road, when I went back from work, the policeman's bars were pulled up, and I looked at the old bluffer."

"What the hell is going on? Do you know? I heard that a little girl was rescued, did she survive? ”

"120 is gone, I don't know if I can live."

"Mom, it's really scary, there's only one left in a family of four."

"Who called the police?"

"It seems that an old woman in the neighborhood saw that their house was burning, and she called the fire brigade at first. Later, the fire brigade came to see that there was a little girl lying in the courtyard, and she felt that something was wrong, so she called the police again.

After the fire was extinguished, it was investigated, and no one else escaped. Moreover, the gangsters killed people first and then set fires, presumably in order to destroy evidence. ”

", it's hateful! I hope to catch the murderer soon! ”

"It's crazy!"

Su Chengyi thought while flipping through the floors.

According to the description of people familiar with the matter at the time, there are several strange points.

If there are neighbors nearby, when the gangsters commit the crime, no one in the neighbors notices the abnormality, or the victim's family, and no one calls for help.

If the gangsters used the method of killing silently and with a knife, then Yu Xia's survival would be even more unreasonable.

Because as the youngest person, she is most likely to scream for help because of fear, such an unstable factor should be dealt with first.

This may lead to one possibility.

The gangster and the victim's family knew each other, so they didn't quarrel or fight with the victim after they entered the door.

By taking advantage of this, new opportunities and ways of committing crimes have been obtained.

Su Chengyi silently stored such a possibility in his mind and continued to read the forum post.

"It's so inefficient! It made people panic, and I didn't dare to go that way after work. ”

"Don't say it, something terrible happened, and the residents next to it are all getting ready to move.

Who knows if that gangster will come back one day? ”

"Don't you say it upstairs, don't you say that in the TV series? Gangsters often return to the place where the crime was committed. ”

"Don't scare people, brother, I still want to get a good night's sleep."

"Everyone has been locking the door at night recently, don't open it when strangers knock on the door, and don't let your wife and children stay at home by themselves."

"Hehe, does this work? People look at it as a gang crime, a few big men come in with knives, even if you are the boxing champion Tyson. ”

Su Chengyi successfully circled the key points in a panicked reply.

Gangsters often return to the crime site.

This is not played in a TV series, and the reality is the same.

Su Chengyi has read a lot of materials related to criminal psychology, which have explained this point.

From a rational point of view, the criminals returned to the scene of the crime in order to obtain information.

Intelligence includes, but is not limited to, retrieving and destroying evidence that may have been left behind, eavesdropping on the progress of the case among the surrounding crowd, and observing how seriously the police are taking the case.

On the other hand, most serial killers often return to the scene of the crime for reasons such as the above.

They are just trying to satisfy their perverted desires, re-experience the pleasure of committing the crime in the first place, and pursue spiritual pleasure.

Such a person regards the crime scene as a work of art of his own, which is worth appreciating repeatedly.

Su Chengyi felt that Wu Shaobo was very likely to be the latter, which also showed that he was indeed very likely to return to the scene.

"Don't talk about it, it's very likely that the murderer is watching us discuss."

"Uncle upstairs."

"Upstairs upstairs this speech is very dangerous, I feel like he's the murderer!"

"I was the first murderer to slaughter you."

"Damn, you're coming? Lao Tzu is now at No. XX, Building X, XX Community, you come, if you don't come, you are my grandson! ”

The follow-up of this post was obviously off track, and Su Chengyi sighed.

Back then, everyone's vigilance in surfing was still not high enough, and it was very dangerous to publish address information like this.

Not to mention the post below that is still discussing this kind of case.

If a person like Wu Shaobo is really reading the reply, maybe he will come to the door to serve immediately.

But along the way, there is still a harvest.

The most important thing is that he knows the approximate address of the crime, and he can go down to see it online.

There is also a possible speculation that the killer may have known the victim's family, or even be familiar with it.

But new problems have also surfaced.

That is, why did the murderer let Yu Xia go?

Su Chengyi doesn't believe that people who can do such a heart-wrenching thing can still have the so-called moment of conscience.

So, maybe it was Yu Xia's tenacious vitality, and when the murderer fled the crime scene, he didn't make up the knife?

This possibility seemed more reasonable, but Su Chengyi quickly thought of Yu Xia's painting.

That is, Chu Tianmian was frightened and thought it was a ghost map, and the restoration of the crime scene.

At first, Su Chengyi only saw that a person had escaped from the black house, and after Chu Qianmian's lines outlined, he could see that the shadow floating on the house was a human face.

A grim face was looking down condescendingly at the fleeing man.

Because of the existence of this painting, Su Chengyi dispelled Fang Cai's speculation.

Nothing speaks for itself like the survivor's own description, despite her immature and subtle brushstrokes.

Then, Yu Xia can escape, it must be under the surveillance and acquiescence of the murderer.

Su Chengyi had questions and drove to Fenglin Road, which was guided by navigation.

Fortunately, he drove Uncle Niu's car today, and it was inconspicuous in the traffic.

If you drive your own Aston Martin, it's going to be a lot more eye-catching, and at this time, it's a bad thing to be eye-catching.

If you want to keep yourself safe, it's important not to attract attention.

In between the traffic lights, the front-line detective Inuba Tachibana sent a message.

She said that she quietly flipped through the visit records, and Yu Xia left a visitor's information in this column, but there was only a record of coming in, but not going out.

It stands to reason that it shouldn't be, Su Chengyi has personally experienced the management system of Jushan Sanatorium, which is very strict.

When he went to visit Granny Xu for the first time, the bank card password was almost taken out by the security guard.

The visitor had already registered when he came in, but why didn't he go out?

Ye Tang's action efficiency was very powerful, and she even took a photo and sent it directly.

The visitor's name is Xia Yongzhi.

Su Chengyi subconsciously thought that this was obviously a name he made up casually.

If the name is fake, then the information behind it is of course also fake.

The red light turned green, and Su Chengyi put down his phone and continued to drive forward.

The map shows that Fenglin Road is far away from the city, and it is also a suburb, almost to the extent of the urban-rural junction.

Fortunately, I specially filled up the gas before leaving, otherwise it would be really choking.

The scenery outside the car window has gradually changed from a bustling downtown area to a boulevard.

After driving for a while, the song list was broadcast from "Love Before the Century" to "Chapter 7 of the Night".

"Crossing the swamp of humanity who can really not be dirty,

We can forget to forgive, but we must know the truth.

If evil were a gorgeous and cruel movement, I would write it with my own hand. ”

Outside the window, the boulevard has been converted into a large expanse of farmland.

It's still early, there is only water in the farmland, and the seedlings have not yet been planted, and from time to time a flock of big white geese float by.

The navigation had already prompted that he had reached his destination, and Su Chengyi slowed down.

Before coming to the scene, he didn't expect it to be such a scene.

Because it is already a suburb, the houses are all small western-style buildings with two or three floors, and there is a long distance between them.

In this way, the neighbor will not know, and perhaps it is normal.

The wheels rolled slowly, stopping when the line of sight could fall on the building.

In fact, such a crime scene is much easier to find than Su Chengyi imagined.

Because it's very conspicuous.

A dark and dilapidated building, the remains of a body burned out by flames, a silent ruin.

The cordon around has long been cobwebbed, but it is intermittently implicated, reminding passers-by of what has happened here.

Su Chengyi stopped the car and turned off the fire.

Perhaps, as the people on the forum said, the neighbors moved out of panic, so the nearby houses were apparently uninhabited, and the surrounding area was a dilapidated scene.

Su Chengyi opened the car door and jumped out of the car.

The big white goose that was still floating in the water just now saw this fresh face, and he didn't panic, and tilted his head to look at it.

Su Chengyi looked around, and for a moment felt that it was probably the only creature in the vicinity.

But since there is a big white goose, someone should come to drive it home in a while, right? No matter how bad it is, it knows it needs to go home.

Thinking like this, Su Chengyi simply sat down and hooked his hand at it.

Unexpectedly, Mr. Big Goose obviously misunderstood what he meant, and regarded such a friendly interaction as a provocation.

“.”

Su Chengyi looked at its eyes full of wisdom, and for a while, the alarm bell sounded in his heart.

"it!"

In the next second, it spread its wings, stretched its neck and killed Su Chengyi.

“!!!”

Su Chengyi hurriedly turned over and got up, looking back to observe while running.

The arm span of the goose looks really bluffing, no wonder they all say that it is a village tyrant, and it hurts to be nagged and designated.

Fortunately, the speed was not fast, and Su Chengyi just ran a few steps in stride and threw it off a distance.

So a man and a goose successfully staged a good show that he fled, it chased, and they all had wings and could not fly.

"Ho! Come back! ”

Soon, there was a shout from behind him.

Su Chengyi was overjoyed in his heart and was finally saved.

When the goose heard this, he retracted his wings and ran back.

Su Chengyi was only then free, and saw an old man in a lily robe standing in the distance, and he was still carrying a fishing basket in his hand, as if he had just finished fishing.

Great, the goose has found its owner, and he has found someone to ask questions.

Following the footsteps of the goose and walking back, the distance was closer, and Su Chengyi saw that this was an old man with gray hair.

But the spirit looks good, but the face is not very good-looking.

Could it be that he suspected that he wanted to steal his goose?

Su Chengyi paused slightly, and simply took the initiative to explain:

"Uncle, I'm sorry. I didn't want to provoke it. ”

"Hmm."

Uncle Lingyi responded lightly, and casually knocked the goose's head with the bamboo pole in his hand.

"Do you live around here?"

Su Chengyi asked tentatively.

The uncle glanced at him, and the bamboo pole pointed to a bungalow in the distance of Tiankan.

"That's it."

Su Chengyi measured the straight-line distance between the scene of the crime and there in his heart, and it was really quite far.

No wonder the uncle was not scared away.

But he obviously didn't have the patience to chat with him, and soon waved a bamboo pole to drive the goose home.

Su Cheng had no choice but to ask straight to the point:

"Do you know Yu Xia?"

When the uncle heard this, he waved the pole in his hand more diligently, and the geese lined up and paced under his command.

Looking at this situation, I can't ask anything.

Su Chengyi sighed and prepared to go around the neighborhood again to see if there were any others.

Unexpectedly, the uncle looked at the staggering footsteps of the goose, and suddenly said coldly:

"I don't know anyone named Yu Xia."

Su Chengyi was slightly stunned, and just wanted to answer yes, he continued:

"The little girl surnamed Xia knows one."

The uncle lifted the cuffs of his robe, and Su Chengyi looked at it from that angle, which happened to be the location of the crime scene.

Now he quickly became alert.

"Yu next to the single name Wang, everyone around her calls her Yuyu."

Uncle said slowly.

Su Chengyi's heart froze, and the temperature gradually cooled.

It turns out that Yu Xia is a pseudonym, and the real name of the little witch is Xia Yu.

And the uncle's next sentence made him feel a chill.

"Her father's name is Xia Yongzhi."
