Book of Sins 4

Chapter 24: People with AIDS
The dwarf Shi Lei works as a doorman in a star-rated hotel. His daily job is to open the door for the guests entering and leaving the hotel, call a car, and say welcome to them.He usually lives in the staff dormitory of the hotel, and the hotel's back kitchen lives in the same room.

The dwarf Shi Lei said: I want to see her, and see her one last time!
The special case team rejected his request on the grounds that the case was under investigation. The dwarf Shi Lei looked depressed and took out a cigarette from his body to smoke.He sat on the steps of the hotel and stopped talking. Anyone who saw a child smoking a cigarette and looking so lonely from the back would feel very weird.He has the body of a ten-year-old child and the heart of a 20-year-old youth, and his emotions are still at the stage of first love.

The dwarf Shi Lei got up and left, with wet tears still hanging on his face.

Obviously, it is impossible for him to have a second love in this life. If he has to find out one reason, it is because he is disabled.

Bao Zhan picked up the cigarette butt thrown away by the dwarf Shi Lei, carefully put it in a plastic bag, and planned to go back for further inspection.The fact that the deceased had been crushed to death with an ashtray, and the hair had ash in his hair, was also a clue that could not be ignored.

Hualong said: Do you suspect that this dwarf is a murderer?

Su Mei said: "He looks like a child. It's impossible to kill an adult. Die Wu can push him down with one hand."

Bao Zhan said: I always feel that he is hiding something.

After investigation by the police, Die Wu had no intention of harming others, and the 53 people who had sex with her, including the one-armed boy, did not suffer from AIDS.When she took the initiative to dedicate herself to the disabled, she took precautions and put condoms on them.She knew that she would not live for a few years, and in her youth, before she died, she did good deeds in this unique way.

Those disabled people are unmarried, some are old, some are dirty, and they may never have any love for men and women in their lives.

Professor Liang asked: What happens to a person who has AIDS?
Su Mei said: Not daring to tell her family, desperate, giving up on herself, spending every day in a daze, waiting for death slowly.

Xiao Taozi said: I will commit suicide, for sure, I have made up my mind now, if I am infected with AIDS, I will commit suicide.

Master Cao said: Don't talk nonsense.

Hualong said: If you have an unfulfilled wish, you will definitely work hard to realize it. Anyway, you are dying, so what can't you say, what can't you do?
Bao Zhan said: Many years ago, Die Wu and Shi Lei were neighbors, and they went to and from school together every day. At that time, they were only ten years old and did not know what love was. But this ignorant relationship, the initial attachment, may be remembered for a lifetime.Die Wu suffers from AIDS, and her dying wish was to find Shi Lei and dedicate herself to him.

Professor Liang said: Shi Lei may have lied, we have to investigate carefully.

The expert's appraisal results came out. The bottle found in Die Wu's body was ordinary porcelain, and the market price was very low. The soot that fell on the hair, after repeated comparisons and tests, it was confirmed that it was the soot of Hongtashan cigarettes.The murderer smoked 7 yuan a box of soft-packed Hongtashan, the dwarf Shi Lei smoked this kind of cigarettes, and he became the number one suspect.

Professor Liang made a new work arrangement, and then started a key investigation around the dwarf Shi Lei. On the day of the crime, where did this person go, whether he had the time to commit the crime, and whether he had contact with the deceased Die Wu, all these must be clarified.

The police secretly monitored the dwarf Shi Lei. The next day, investigators reported to the special case team that Shi Lei had disappeared.

He suddenly left without saying goodbye and quietly left the hotel where he worked without asking for a salary.

The hotel kitchen who shared the same room reported to the police that Shi Lei bought a barrel of gasoline, and before leaving, he took the kitchen's knife with him.

Political commissar Song was furious, criticizing the monitoring personnel for their negligence in their work, and actually let the suspect slip under their noses.According to the analysis of the special case team, it was obvious that Shi Lei bought gasoline to set fire or burn something.For several days in a row, there was no fire accident in the city. Professor Liang told the fire department not to take it lightly, and to be ready at any time to strengthen fire safety measures in public places.The police monitored where Shi Lei might appear, but this little dwarf disappeared without a trace, as if he had evaporated from the world.

The special case team held an emergency meeting to re-reason and analyze the case.

Political commissar Song said: Did the suspect Shi Lei run away, or did he hide?

Professor Liang said: Shi Lei was either the murderer or the insider.

Bao Zhan said: If Shi Lei is the murderer, then there may be another accomplice. It is very difficult for him to kill someone alone. He bought gasoline and took a knife. Maybe he wanted to kill the accomplice and destroy the corpse.Of course, it is also possible to jump over the wall in a hurry to retaliate against society and set fire to murder.

Su Mei said: I tend to think that Shi Lei is an insider, he knows who the murderer is, and he wants to kill the murderer himself.

Hualong said: Xiaomei is right. Why did Shi Lei kill Die Wu? There is no reasonable motive for killing Die Wu. He knows who killed Die Wu, and he wants to avenge Die Wu.

Political commissar Song said: In any case, the case is not far from being solved, but what should we do next, just wait like this?

Professor Liang said: Die Wu's lower body was sewn up and a bottle was stuffed.Porcelain vases can be seen everywhere, we must resolutely give up this clue and not waste police power.The murderer is skilled in sewing, long needles and twine are not common, where are these things?Hemp spinning mills, grain warehouses, seed stations, feed manufacturers and sales points, stations and wharves are the places we focus on.

Professor Liang predicted things like a god. Two days later, at noon, a wooden boat near the canal pier suddenly caught fire. The municipal fire brigade immediately dispatched and rushed to the scene of the fire.After a preliminary investigation, it was found that this was an arson case. According to eyewitnesses, the arsonist was a child. After identification, it was the dwarf Shi Lei.He used gasoline as a fuel to ignite the wooden boat. The fire was so fierce that although the fire truck arrived in time, the hull of the boat had been burned.

This ship travels between Jiangsu and Zhejiang, and is usually used to transport soybeans, potatoes, coarse salt and other goods.

The owner of the boat was a cripple named Tuo Wuchi, who suffered extensive burns all over his body and was rushed to the hospital.

This person came into the sight of the police, Song political commissar was ecstatic, and immediately sent a team of police officers to the hospital to take notes, and at the same time launched a peripheral investigation on the cripple.According to the Municipal Center for Disease Control and Prevention, the lame man is an AIDS patient.The Center for Disease Control and Prevention is the department that checks for AIDS free of charge, and holds a list of AIDS patients in the city.

There was a peddler with a trap under a bridge near the pier. When the police visited and questioned him, he provided a valuable clue.

Die Wu had contact with the lame man. At that time, the peddler overheard their conversation.

Because this conversation is very explicit and memorable, the peddler still has an impression of Die Wu and Lame.

At that time, Die Wu was walking on the bridge, and the lame man followed behind, shouting as he walked.

The cripple said: I heard that you are dead, and you can do it with the disabled, and you don't need money, so you can do it with me too.

Die Wu stared at him, the cripple was dirty and smiled maliciously.

Die Wu said: Who did you listen to, get away, don't pester me, you've been pestering me for several days.

The cripple became a little annoyed, and said, "I heard from a blind man, you did it with him before, why can't you do it with me again."

Die Wu thought for a while and said: I know who it is.

The cripple said: It was he who introduced you to me.

Die Wu said: I'm sorry, I shouldn't scold you.

The lame man said: If you don't do it with me, I will tell your parents. The blind man said that both your parents believe in Buddhism.

Die Wu ignored him and walked under the bridge. There was a peddler in a loop on the side of the road, squinting his eyes and resting on a deck chair. There were rows of cheap porcelain on the ground, as well as some plaster statuettes and toys.You can often see this kind of entertainment game in the streets and alleys. You only need to spend one yuan to buy two bamboo rings, stand at the designated position, and get something in the sleeve, and you can take it away as a prize.

The cripple bought ten bamboo rings and handed some to Die Wu, who hesitated for a moment before taking them.

Die Wu caught a slender bottle, and she said happily: Haha, my jade bottle.

The cripple said, "Can you do it? Let's talk back."

Die Wu took the bottle from the peddler and said to the cripple: I am not afraid of you, but pity you, just treat it as what I owed you in my previous life.

The cripple scratched his head with joy and said, "My boat is over there."

Die Wu said: You promise not to pester me in the future, do you have that thing there?
The cripple said: What?
Die Wu whispered: Condoms.

The source of the jade bottle was finally found, and the case became clear here. The cripple entangled Die Wu and was accidentally infected with AIDS. The cripple killed Die Wu and threw her body in a square not far away.The dwarf Shi Lei was an insider, avenged Die Wu and set fire to the cripple's boat.

The cripple caught fire all over his body and survived by jumping into the water. He was sent to the hospital for emergency treatment. The burn department was located on the tenth floor. When the police gathered in the hospital, the cripple was killed in the ward!
At that time, the scene was very chaotic. There were several screams from nurses in the intensive care unit, followed by the sound of a medicine cart falling to the ground, and a child ran out sneakily.The nurse yelled at the back to kill people, come quickly.Several police officers were in the doctor's duty room to inquire about the lame man's injury. Hearing the sound, the nurse hurriedly told what had happened.

The nurse had just given the lame man an injection of pethidine when suddenly a child came in, holding a knife in both hands, and stabbed the lame man hard in the chest a few times.The nurses were stunned, they couldn't believe the scene in front of them, someone actually killed someone in the ward, and the murderer was a child.The nurse watched the child run away before reacting and calling out loudly.

This child is the dwarf Shi Lei.

The police immediately gave chase, Shi Lei ran into the elevator, only one step away from catching him.

The elevator went down from the tenth floor, and the police used a walkie-talkie to notify the police on the first floor to intercept, and at the same time blocked the stairs to prevent the murderer from escaping.

However, the policemen on the first floor were guarding the elevator, but Shi Lei was not found in the elevator. They went up the stairs, but did not find him. The police searched the entire hospital building, but finally found nothing, and Shi Lei disappeared.
