Xu Ke's words seemed ordinary, but Gu Chen didn't think so, the last person who could touch Wang Jie's corpse was nothing more than an undertaker.

And what happened after that, Gu Chen could guess with his toes.

Xu Ke had already clearly felt the subtle changes in Gu Chen's face......

He has worked in the hospital system for many years and is good at reading words and feelings, or this has long been an essential skill for every doctor.

"Yes...... Is there any problem?Comrade policeman?" Xu Ke asked weakly.

"The murderer is not Wang Jie. After getting Xu Ke's verification, Gu Chen was already very sure.

"Not Wang Jie?" Xu Ke was stunned for a moment, then looked at Officer Wang beside him, and finally returned his gaze to Gu Chen: "It's not Wang Jie, then ...... How could Wang Jie's fingerprints be ......?"

Xu Ke was very smart, and when he said this, he had already read the meaning from Gu Chen's gaze, so he asked, "Officer Gu, do you mean...... There's a good chance this mortuary is?"

"That's right. Gu Chen didn't deny it, threw the pen on the desk, looked up and said: "I think the only one who can get Wang Jie's finger is the undertaker himself, and I know the procedure after that, Wang Jie was sent directly to the crematorium, and there is no chance to start the whole process." ”

The undertaker was able to work in a relatively quiet and independent environment, and in this regard, she had enough time to cut off the deceased's finger for later use, and then dispose of that finger after the crime. Officer Wang also hurriedly added.

Xu Ke was a little confused.

He'd heard before that some doctors had a collector's penchant for collecting things like taxidermy.

Of course, there are even more disgusting ......

For example, the bad tires of animals are preserved in glass containers, which he found in the home of a professor.

But when it comes to collecting the fingers of the dead, this is the first time I have heard of it.

Thinking about the mortuary being a young girl, suddenly the whole person is not good.

"No...... Could it be that this undertaker cut off the fingers of the deceased and has been preserved until now?"

Xu Ke blinked and looked at Gu Chen.

Gu Chen nodded and said: "I have thought about many people who have come into contact with the deceased in the end, such as the manager of the morgue, doctors, etc., according to the work arrangement of the Sixth Hospital, only the mortuary has this opportunity." ”

Seeing that Xu Ke was a little incredulous, Gu Chen said again: "Of course, I will still check with other doctors, so now, can you take me to find this mortuary?"

"When...... Of course. Xu Ke did not refuse.

He was also curious, curious about whether the thief the police were looking for was this female mortuary?

If so, then this female mortuary seems to have some psychological problems, at least as a doctor, Xu Ke thinks so.

On an empty stomach, Xu Ke took Gu Chen and Officer Wang to the morgue of the hospital.

Pushing open the door, it was empty, and no one was there.

Gu Chen was the first to walk in, and used his specialty-level observation power to conduct a preliminary search of the scene.

"Gu Chen, could it be that this female undertaker is still eating, or is she not going to work today?" asked Officer Wang after searching the scene.

Gu Chen agreed: "Maybe, I want to ask the enthusiastic eldest sister just now, her husband is from the Administration Department, so he should know a little bit about the situation." ”

"That's right. Xu Ke also hurriedly said: "The Administration Department has a schedule, and we should be able to find the work schedule of this female mortuary over there, do you want us to go over there and have a look?"

"No need. Gu Chen directly took out his mobile phone and declined: "I can let my colleagues take a look." ”

Thinking that Lu Weiwei and Yuan Shasha should be back soon, Gu Chen simply called Lu Weiwei and asked them to go to the administration department to understand the situation.

And Gu Chen came directly to a desk.

In this empty morgue, this desk stands out in particular and should be the place where the mortuary manager works.

There weren't many documents on the table, Gu Chen sat on a wooden chair, and then opened the drawer on the right.

There are no other items in it except for some gadgets, vanity cases, and some nail clippers.

And because of the existence of a makeup box, Gu Chen thought that this should be an item for a female mortician, or an item for the dead.

Gu Chen opened the second and third floors one after another, but it was empty, without any items.

"Open the middle drawer too. Officer Wang proposed after following Gu Chen to inspect the two drawers on the side.

Gu Chen nodded and pulled out the long drawer in the middle, which contained some documents and transcripts.

Although the paper specifications are different, they are arranged in an orderly manner.

On the left side are A4 paper files, in the middle are notebooks, and on the right are some folders.

On the left side are some items similar to invoice documents, and on the right side are some writing pens.

What made Gu Chen feel extremely frightened was that these items were all neatly arranged.

To what extent is it exaggerated?

There are three pencils, each arranged according to the length of the mobile phone signal format.

The A4 paper is flat and neat like a cube, and the corners of the folder become a straight line.

Including the same with documents, all the items are deliberately placed.

"This is too neat, isn't it?" Officer Wang couldn't help but complain: "How boring is this guy, even the documents and documents are neat, and the tofu blocks are too exaggerated, right?"

"Maybe it's because of work, so I'm setting up my papers and having some fun. Xu Ke also took Officer Wang's words and couldn't help complaining: "It's not uncommon for colleagues like me and me to be bored sometimes and use melon seed shells to paint." ”

Officer Wang smiled: "It turns out that this is an obsessive-compulsive person." ”

The two teased each other here, but Gu Chen didn't join in.

He put on his white gloves, picked up the thick notebook in the middle, and began to flip through it.

Inside are some work notes, recording the details of the work of the mortuary.

Gu Chen was not interested in these and continued to scroll down.

Soon, Gu Chen was in the middle and found a piece of hard paper, which seemed to have some words on it.

Gu Chen took it in his hand and read it softly in his mouth: "At 0:00 tonight, the West Square of Binjiang Park, see you or leave." ”

"What do you mean?" Gu Chen didn't understand.

Seeing this, Officer Wang also hurried over, followed the text above, and began to mutter silently.

"No, who is she talking to? Officer Wang looked up at Gu Chen.

As soon as Gu Chen wanted to speak, he received a call from Lu Weiwei.

"Senior Brother Gu, the female mortuary you asked me to check is not at work in the afternoon. ”

"What about that morning, has she been here in the morning?" Gu Chen asked.

"I came in the morning, and she didn't leave until dinner time. Lu Weiwei said.

"I see. Gu Chen suddenly realized, could this female mortuary be talking to him?

"Senior Brother Gu, where are you?

"Yes. ”

"Do you want to come to the archives for dinner?"

"Good. ”

After hanging up Lu Weiwei's phone, Gu Chen continued to flip through the notebook to the end, but there was no other new discovery.

"Then what does this note mean, who will go to Binjiang Park?" Xu Ke couldn't help but ask curiously when he saw Gu Chen sealing the note with a transparent forensic bag.

"Maybe you were talking to the first person who found the note in the transcript, right?" Gu Chen wasn't sure now, but he was sure that there would definitely be a story tonight.

......

......

Sixth Hospital Archives.

Lu Weiwei and Yuan Shasha had already eaten lunch and began to take notes on the other doctors who had arrived.

is the same as Gu Chen guessed, everyone's caliber is very consistent, Wang Jie at the beginning, after being sent to the hospital, will die.

It is impossible for Wang Jie to be resurrected.

And the only person who can do anything on Wang Jie's corpse is undoubtedly the key to the case.

But why leave a note?

This problem has not been solved by Gu Chen.

After lunch, everyone returned to the Furong Branch, the office of the third criminal investigation group.

"Found it. After He Junchao finished copying the home address of the female mortuary, he put it on Officer Wang's desk: "This person's name is Gao Ting, and he currently lives in the Binjiang apartment, which is near Binjiang Park. ”

"You take someone to check on this Gao Ting's house, and if you are at home, bring it back immediately. Officer Wang also drank a sip of water, and the whole person had a headache.

Gao Ting's phone has been turned off, which makes Officer Wang even more worried, did this Gao Ting get some news and then want to escape?

If you don't catch her now, maybe she'll find a chance to escape, so it's a race against time.

He Junchao did not hesitate, immediately put on the equipment of a single policeman, pointed to the two trainee policemen beside him and said, "You, you, go out with me." ”

"Yes. ”

"No problem. ”

The two probationary police officers had been holding back their words just now, and they didn't dare to interject.

The veteran comrades were discussing the case, and they had only the right to listen.

Now it's finally my turn to play, and I feel like I'm suddenly being taken seriously.

Minutes and seconds passed......

Gu Chen leaned back on the seat, clasped his hands on his chest, and waited quietly.

Lu Weiwei's potato chips are crunchy.

Officer Wang's wolfberry tea was brewed over and over again.

Yuan Shasha didn't dare to make a sound, she kept writing and painting on a blank piece of paper, as for what she wrote, Yuan Shasha herself didn't know, her eyes kept looking at the three partners.

At this moment, Officer Wang's phone rang suddenly, and he immediately clicked on the speakerphone and asked, "Xiao He, how is the situation?"

"Lao Wang, there is no one at home. He Junchao's somewhat disappointed tone came from the phone.

"Then go to the monitoring room and see if this Gao Ting has ever come back?" Lu Weiwei hurriedly added.

He Junchao on the other end of the phone smiled: "Lu Weiwei, I joined the company a few years earlier than you, can I not think of what you can think of?" We have been to see the monitoring room, and this Gao Ting has not been home since she went to work in the morning. ”

"Then shall we break down the door and go in?" said the voice of another probationary police officer.

"Don't mess around, don't startle the snake just yet. Officer Wang directly rejected the request and continued: "Otherwise, let the community security guard help keep an eye on it, and if Gao Ting is found to be home, immediately monitor her, and then notify our police to deal with it." ”

"Okay, okay, just listen to your old king. He Junchao didn't talk nonsense, and after a few simple exchanges, he hung up the call.

"It's really strange, I didn't go home after work, so where will this Gao Ting go?" Looking at the note collected by Gu Chen on the table, Officer Wang couldn't help but doubt himself: "Is it really as you said, she is sending an invitation to the first person who sees the note?"

"Probably. Gu Chen said.

Officer Wang shook his head and said, "I always feel weird here, judging from the placement of the documents of this female mortuary, this seems to be an obsessive-compulsive patient, but what does she want to do? Why do you want to make an appointment until the early hours of the morning, and she is alone by the river in the early morning, so she is not afraid of bad people?"

Officer Wang really couldn't guess these questions.

One fingerprint makes so many incidents, and it feels like everything is in the other party's hands.

Gu Chen had always had doubts, including fingerprints and notes.

But the current situation is that Gao Ting's phone can't get through, and she hasn't returned home, so the most direct and effective way to find Gao Ting is to go to the appointment.

"Senior Brother Wang, why don't I go to the appointment tonight?" Gu Chen asked Officer Wang after thinking about it repeatedly.

"Are you going?" Officer Wang was stunned for a moment, waved his hand and said: "No, the other party's purpose is unknown, our police must carry out control at the agreed place, and it will start now." ”

Gu Chen said with a smile: "These are your affairs, you can do it in secret, but let me go to the appointment, I want to meet this strange female mortuary." ”

"Wouldn't that be dangerous?" Yuan Shasha's whole body suddenly became nervous.

Lu Weiwei frowned slightly: "There must be danger, so far, we don't even know what the other party wants to do, can it not be dangerous?"

Looking at Gu Chen, Lu Weiwei said again: "But the other party is a woman, maybe for the sake of Senior Brother Gu's handsomeness, he shouldn't do anything drastic, right?"

Gu Chen turned his head to look at Lu Weiwei, and said with a smile: "I'm not thinking about whether it's dangerous or not, I'm thinking, if the meaning of this note is to let someone go to the appointment, then it is obvious that there is something to communicate, there are too many people, I am afraid of scaring the other party, maybe one-on-one is the best solution, what do you say?"

Lu Weiwei was stunned for a moment, and said weakly: "It's all this time, Senior Brother Gu is still thinking about others, so what else can I say? I can only support Senior Brother Gu silently behind Senior Brother Gu's back." ”

"Don't worry. Officer Wang said: "After all, Gu Chen has practiced, and it doesn't matter if he goes to the appointment alone, we can monitor in secret, and everyone will go together if there is a situation." ”

Looking at Gu Chen, Officer Wang said again: "Actually, what Gu Chen just said, I think it makes a lot of sense, maybe this female mortuary has found that she was being tracked by the police, and she just wants to find someone from the police to negotiate with her, maybe so." ”

Lu Weiwei said: "I hope my right eyelid doesn't jump today." ”

......

......

11:30 p.m.

Outside the West Square of Binjiang Park.

Including Officer Wang, a total of 12 new and old comrades were deployed at major intersections in the West Square.

All dressed in civilian clothes, wandered around the West Square.

There are open whistles and dark whistles.

In a flower, Lu Weiwei looked at her watch and couldn't help but say eagerly: "This is still 30 minutes away from the agreed time, but no stranger has been found in Kexi Square so far, what's the situation?"

"Could it be that our people are exposed?" asked Yuan Shasha on the side.

Officer Wang hesitated for a few seconds, then suddenly pinched the throat shock air duct headset and said: "All the teams pay attention, I am Lao Wang, everyone is now evacuated in batches, within 15 minutes, all must be evacuated from the West Square of Binjiang Park, over." ”

Soon, the teams also responded in turn.

13 minutes later, in the west square of Binjiang Park, it was difficult to see people anymore.

However, Officer Wang's condescending secret sentry was still able to observe part of the West Square of Binjiang Park through a high-powered telescope.

"Don't wait. Gu Chen looked at his watch and said, "Time waits for no one, I have to go out." ”

"Senior Brother Gu, be careful. Yuan Shasha reminded.

"Don't worry, there's everyone here, no problem. Gu Chen then patted the handcuffs hanging from his waist and said, "If necessary, I will arrest her directly." ”

"Then we are waiting for you here, if the situation cannot be solved, you can put your head in your hands and send us a code, and I promise to let her know what it means to be overcrowded. Lu Weiwei was also grinding her fists, eager to go with Gu Chen.

Gu Chen smiled and said, "No problem, it can be done." ”

After saying goodbye to a few people, Gu Chen walked out of the secret post from another exit, and walked down the steps.

I have to say that the female mortuary chose a very tricky location.

Although the west square of Binjiang Park is close to the river, due to the many flower landscapes here, there are several entrances and exits, and it is really not possible to find people who want to hide here.

Even if there are more than a dozen police officers around, there is still no guarantee that the other party will not find out in the dark.

And Gu Chen found that this female mortuary seemed to be an obsessive-compulsive patient.

A few people can sort out the documents and documents a little exaggerated, so she should be very punctual in her grasp of the time.

With these understandings of the female mortuary, Gu Chen walked to the West Square in advance.

He didn't go anywhere, he came directly to the west square, near the central circle, and sat alone on the steps by the river, waiting quietly.

I chose to come here because of the open terrain and no vegetation, which is conducive to the monitoring of police personnel.

I looked down at my watch.

At 11:48, there was no movement around.

At 11:53, there was still no movement around.

11:58 a.m.

Gu Chen couldn't sit still, but he still waited patiently, and he persevered all night, and it was not bad for these two minutes.

At 0:00 in the morning, when Gu Chen looked at the accurate direction of the hour hand, he breathed a long sigh of relief and looked around.

At this time, Gu Chen discovered that in a forest that everyone hadn't paid attention to before, a young woman wearing a red top and jeans suddenly appeared in front of him.

She also seemed to have discovered Gu Chen at this moment, and was slowly walking in the direction of Gu Chen.

Gu Chen stood up and stared carefully at the young woman in front of him.

The woman's expression was indifferent, with an indifferent attitude, and she walked towards Gu Chen step by step.

When the two faced each other, the woman suddenly passed through Gu Chen again, sat directly in the position where Gu Chen had just sat down, patted the steps with her right hand and said, "Come and sit." ”
