This is undoubtedly a bit embarrassing, the person involved in this tragedy is standing in front of us alive, he is crying silently. шщш.(vii) (ix) x.S.сом The update is so fast. And each of us doesn't know how to comfort this person. Although more than ten years have passed since this incident, the sorrow in Lao Xia's heart may have never diminished in the slightest.

Some things can't be passed for a lifetime, if it is in the past, Lao Xia will not escape, and he will come to the north from the north, a small city on the 18th parallel.

Lao Xia shrugged his shoulders, and no one could see that Lao Xia was crying. This is a cry of great sadness and grievance. This is a kind of childlike cry who is obviously sad to death but forcibly endures his crying without crying. The cold wind blew and swept in the snow, and I felt even colder when the snow 'flakes' slapped on our faces.

Captain Zhou didn't think of this either, he looked at us, and then at Lao Xia's back. As if to comfort Lao Xia, Captain Zhou continued as if nothing had happened: "However, the local police quickly arrested Lao An, and a year later, Lao An was shot for intentional arson and intentional homicide. ”

I understand what Captain Zhou meant, his subtext is to tell Lao Xia that Lao An has been punished by the law and has paid for his family's life. But even so, even if Lao An dies ten times, what's the use. Maybe in the fire that year, Lao Xia also died, so there would be no pain.

To live is to be painful, but to live is to have hope.

Unexpectedly, Captain Zhou 'touched' Lao Xia's identity clearly last night. And the equally unexpected thing is that Lao Xia did work as a butcher.

So will Lao Xia be a murderer? In order to vent the sorrow in his heart~ out, Lao Xia chose to kill people to vent. And looking at Lao Xia's appearance, if it weren't for Lao Xia's heart, Lao Xia is the kind of person who will never show his true emotions in front of others.

If you don't explode in silence, you die in silence.

But now there is not the slightest evidence to point the finger at any one person in this dismemberment case, and we have too few clues now. And the brown 'colored' short 'hair' and the red 'colored' nail polish on the big ~ 'leg' toenail were all arranged by Captain Zhou to be sent to the provincial capital for testing, and it may take a few days to get results.

It's too slow, but there's no way around it. The interesting thing is that in such a slow-paced city, it seems that murderers kill at a slow pace.

Lao Xia stood in front of us for a few minutes, and then, without anything happening, he continued to walk forward. It was still a silent and silent way, as if what we had just experienced was just a dream, as if nothing had happened just now.

More than forty minutes have passed, and we will soon arrive at Tougouzi Village. On the way, we didn't chat and talk, but followed Lao Xia and walked forward quickly.

After more than 20 minutes, we finally arrived at Tougouzi Village. Due to the heavy snowfall, there was not a single pedestrian on the road. It was quiet, and every house had its big doors and windows closed. There were no wild dogs or pheasants in the village, not even a cow or a donkey.

We walked on the road and didn't hear the barking of the dogs, it was very quiet.

Looking at the adobe wall, we suddenly felt like we had entered an abandoned village.

Lao Xia pointed to the big 'door' of the village committee, and then shouted: "Come in!"

Before we could say anything, Lao Xia turned around and left.

Looking at Lao Xia's back, we were stunned.

Outside the office of the village committee, the village chief came to greet us in a wheelchair. His two 'legs' drooped ~ pulled, and he also looked like a disabled person. It was an old man who looked to be sixty years old, his face was full of wrinkles, and his eyes became two folds when he smiled. He smiled and said, "Captain Zhou, are these three the chiefs from Dongxing City?" My name is Wei Shengfeng, and because I am older, I was chosen by them to be the village chief. ”

I hurriedly waved my hand and said, "Village Chief Wei, we are not chiefs, we are just ordinary policemen. This time, I came to investigate the case. ”

Wei Shengfeng nodded, walked up to us in a wheelchair, and he stretched out his hand to shake my hand.

I quickly took a few steps forward to shake his hand, and he said, "It's too cold outside, come inside." ”

A few of us nodded, and Yukani walked into the house.

The size of this office does not seem to be large, but it is also a small sparrow. A black 'colored' desk with a 'flower' pattern is placed in front of the 'door', which looks simple and elegant. On the table are pens, ink, paper, inkstones and other study tools, and on the side is a set of tea sets, which are steaming at the moment.

On the wall behind the table, there was a pair of words, which were four big characters—it was rare to be confused.

Looking at the handwriting, it is not everyone's handwriting, and after looking carefully at the seal, I found that this character was written by Wei Shengfeng himself.

Next to the table, against the wall, there is a bookcase.

I frowned, walked to the bookcase, and looked at it levelly, the books on this floor were all some economic and financial 'door' studies. There are also bookmarks on a book, which shows that these books are not used to decorate the 'door' side of the vassal elegance, and the old village chief has really read it.

Then there are several sofas, a small coffee table in the middle, and a water dispenser is boiling water.

There was no chair behind the desk, and it seemed that he couldn't sit in a chair. The old village chief held up the tea set with one hand, and came to the coffee table with a wheelchair with one hand, gently put the tea set down, and then took out a few small teacups from the 'drawer' of the coffee table.

"I don't have anything good to entertain you, so it's good to warm up with some hot tea. The old village chief washed the cup with tea and said to us slowly: "I told Lao Xia to send you here, and I will find that Li Danan, who saw the corpse for the first time." ”

We nodded.

The old village chief poured tea for us, and when we drank a warm cup of tea, our bodies and hearts warmed up.

Then, a familiar voice came out: "Come in!"

The 'door' was pushed open, and with a cold wind came in was a dark-skinned ~ dark-skinned man, it seemed that this was Li Danan. He was forty years old, and looked at us with some restraint. I saw his arm, and then I realized that this person's left and right hands were gone, and the place where it should have been palms became two "bones".

"The village chief. He shouted.

Lao Xia closed the 'door' from the outside, and then left again, not knowing where he went.

"Li Danan, you sit, people ask you something, you can say anything, don't be nervous. The old village chief motioned for Li Danan to sit in front of us.

Li Danan sat down and smiled a little shyly.

I nodded at him slightly, and then asked, "Li Danan, what time did you see that foot yesterday?"

Li Danan hurriedly replied: "Yesterday, it was the afternoon, five or six o'clock in the afternoon, I didn't have a watch, I didn't look at it carefully." But it was getting dark, so I guess it was six o'clock. ”

"And is the body you saw on the side of the road?" I continued.

"Yes, yes!" Li Danan said, "I saw it on the side of the road, when I came back from outside the village, and when I walked into the village, I saw a foot on the side of the road. At that time, this person 'exposed' one foot, and I thought someone might have drunk too much and fell asleep on the side of the road. ”

Li Danan paused and continued: "When I came back, the heavy snow had just stopped. But the man was covered in the snow, and I didn't know if she was still alive, so I went over and looked. This must be a 'woman', she paints her nails, I 'touch' her feet, they are all frozen, this person must be dead......"

As he spoke, Li Danan looked at us and looked a little cowardly, as if he was afraid that we would treat him as a murderer. But it seems that it is impossible, Li Danan has neither hand, it is impossible to kill people with a machete.

"Go on. I said to Li Danan.

Li Danan nodded and continued: "There was no one on the road at that time, I was a little scared, so I called the police and left. When I got back to the village, I told the village chief about it. Then the village chief told me last night to wait for the police today and not to run around. ”

I took a sip of tea and asked, "Let me ask you, did you see someone else's footprints at that time?"

Li Danan thought for a moment before he said, "No, no." When I found my feet, I looked around and there was no one and no footprints. I'm alone on the road, and I've never encountered anything like this in my life......"

The snow had stopped at that time, and it seemed that the killer had been gone for a while.

I continued to ask, "Were there any socks or shoes scattered around at the time?"

"No!" Li Danan shook his head: "This is really nothing." ”

It seems that when Li Danan arrived at the scene, the murderer was gone. From this point inference, the murderer has been gone for a while.

I nodded at Li Danan, and then said, "Okay, we're done asking all the questions we have to ask." If you think of any new clues, you tell the village chief. ”

Captain Zhou said, "Li Danan, then you can go back first." ”

Li Danan nodded, turned around and walked outside.

Captain Zhou turned his head to me and said, "Then the situation is more obvious, this murderer should have thrown his body around four or five o'clock, otherwise he would not have enough time to leave." ”

I shook my head and said to Captain Zhou, "No, it may be earlier. An hour of snowfall at that time should not have been enough to cover up a person's footprints. ”

"But that's the problem. Captain Zhou scratched his head and said, "The murderer can't fly, and he will definitely leave footprints wherever he walks." Although the previous footprints were covered in snow, what about the footprints that walked behind? Where did they go? Could it be that in order to prevent the footprints from 'exposing' himself, he chose to walk into the village? After all, no one would notice the footprints on the snow in the village. And the sudden appearance of a pair of footprints in the mountains will definitely make people suspicious. ”

Otherwise, the direction is the opposite, but Li Danan will definitely find a pair of footprints facing him. Captain Zhou continued.

I frowned, what Captain Zhou said was right, but as long as we walked into the village, or directly crossed the field, in such a large area, we couldn't find the footprints left behind the murderer.
