In the evening, in time for commuting time, more and more residents entered and exited the corridor, and the not-so-spacious stairwell seemed a bit cramped.At this moment, a man with sweat on his face and a big bag in his hand stepped on the stairs, dodged left and right, and ran upstairs at a trot.

"Hey, I came back late and the car tire blew up. I pushed it all the way back. Mom, Xiaohui, I've bought all the groceries. I'm going to cook right away." The man yelled guiltily as soon as he entered the house.

"You still have the face to talk about your broken bicycle, who doesn't drive by yourself now?" An old woman's faint voice came from the living room, with a bit of resentment in her tone, "Xiaohui took Nannan to art class No, I won’t eat at home tonight. If I wait for you to cook, I will starve to death, and I will go out to dance with my old sister later, so I won’t eat at home.”

"Then I won't do it, I'll deal with it casually..." The man changed his slippers in the hallway, walked into the living room, and saw his mother-in-law and a young woman in a professional suit holding a box of health care products, sitting They were chatting enthusiastically on the sofa.The man suddenly understood, a trace of displeasure flashed across his face, he stopped the original conversation, and turned to softly tentatively said: "Mom, aren't you allowed to buy these messy health care products? They are all lies, let's still buy them. Don't eat it, in case something bad happens if you eat it again!"

"Put it down, what do you know? This is the authentic nano-sea cucumber peptide powder, which extracts all the essence of sea cucumbers. One pack can eat ten sea cucumbers." The man's mother-in-law gave him a sideways look and said in a disdainful tone. .

"Brother, this is really a legitimate product. The raw materials are pure natural wild sea cucumbers. Through the most advanced bio-enzyme technology, the sea cucumbers are ultra-finely pulverized to the nanometer level, which not only locks the nutrition firmly, but also It greatly improves the absorption capacity of the human body, and has special health care and therapeutic effects on the cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases of the elderly. Long-term use can even kill cancer cells." The young woman explained in a serious manner, and then pretended to be considerate, " I think Auntie is a predestined relationship, so she sells it very cheaply, only 2000 yuan for a box of eight bags."

"Hmph, two hundred and fifty-one bags, you salesmen are really wicked. You not only cheat money, but also insult our IQ. Take your things and leave quickly." The man snorted coldly and raised his voice.

"No, no, you misunderstood, I gave you a [-]% discount." The young woman probably also saw that the old mother-in-law disliked this son-in-law, so she lost her fear and said aggressively, "Brother, I Let me tell you, as children, we should really respect and honor the elderly. A good health is better than anything else, isn't it? Brother, don't feel sorry for this little money. "

"Don't bother with him, I have the final say on this family, and I will buy it if I say it." The mother-in-law patted the young woman's hand to comfort her, then turned her head, gave the man a hard look, and raised her voice and said, "I have you!" This son-in-law is really unlucky, look at the people around you who are as big as you, who is not as good as you? I don't want you to buy me a big house or a car, and you don't care if I take a tonic? Besides, I Spend my own money, spend my daughter’s money, and spend yours? Just the two pieces of money you earn are not enough for the children to go to interest classes, and you still have the face to gossip here, so what should you do? Come on, it's annoying to see you!"

"That's good, that's good. I didn't say that I'm not allowed to buy it. You can buy it if you want." After being reprimanded by his mother-in-law in front of outsiders, the man didn't show how angry he was, as if he was used to such a scene, He hastily apologized with a smile, and then said kindly to the young woman, "I'll go and pick out the dishes, and I'll make them tomorrow. You can continue talking, do you want to pour you a glass of water?"

"No need, brother, you can do your work, I will chat with auntie for a while... Auntie, we have four boxes of this product for a course of treatment, let me introduce you how to take it..." The young woman talked to her old mother-in-law while using Out of the corner of his eye, he glanced at the man walking towards the kitchen in desperation, a sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth - sly and contemptuous.

The man walked to the door of the kitchen, turned his head suddenly, and his eyes met the woman's smile...

After 8 o'clock in the evening, it suddenly started to rain heavily, which lasted until midnight.

A bus slowly stopped on the side of the street. After a while, a young man got out of the bus. He held the newspaper over his head with both hands to block the rain, and ran towards an alley across the street.

The young man ran all the way, and just entered the alley when he suddenly sank and disappeared from the flat ground.Following that, shrill screams sounded one after another in the dark rainy night, hoarse and creepy, as if from hell...

The first part of the partner reunion

The time has entered October, and the annual National Day holiday is ushered in again.

Catch up with this node, the Ministry has not received any application for support, and the support team was lucky to have a week's vacation.I have been running around outside for most of the year, and it is rare to have a long vacation. The best choice is of course to go home.However, for the support team, the vacation must also be kept on standby. The mobile phone must be turned on 24 hours a day, and it must be ready to go to the scene of the crime when it is ordered.

Du Yingxiong's hometown is in Fengshan City, a small city in Northeast China.

At that time, the sky was blue, the sun was warm, and the flowers and trees were still beautiful; the red flags and flags fluttered on both sides of the street, filled with the festive atmosphere of the National Day; most of the passers-by had simple and calm smiles on their faces, which made people feel cordial. ...Compared with the gorgeous and impetuous big cities, this small town in autumn is filled with tranquility and peace, which makes Du Yingxiong feel a sense of belonging.

After returning from vacation this time, Du Yingxiong acted very low-key. He specifically asked his parents not to tell others about his return, and he did not want to participate in any entertainment.Even if I go out for activities, the scope is quite limited. I either go to the vegetable market and supermarket with my parents, or walk around the residential area casually, and occasionally go fishing at the reservoir at the foot of a mountain on the back of the community.

He wanted to completely empty himself out, because during this period of time, he had a vague feeling of being overloaded in his heart—the scene of Captain Song's sacrifice, the sunken face with only one eye left, would appear in his mind from time to time. It flashed in my mind that at this time, the scar left by the bullet on my chest seemed to be aching.He suspects he's starting to develop symptoms of PTSD (post-traumatic stress disorder), so these few days off are a perfect nerve-buffer for him.But things in the world are always difficult to fulfill people's wishes, and often the more you pursue something deliberately, the more unobtainable it seems.Just like now, most of the holidays have passed, and Du Yingxiong thought that this holiday could be spent almost without any disturbance, but he didn't realize that a huge trouble was coming to his door.

In the afternoon, Du Yingxiong was fishing by the reservoir in the back mountain again.Not long after he sat down, he heard footsteps behind him, followed by two reminding coughs. He turned his head and saw a familiar face.

"Er Fei, why is it you? How do you know I'm back?" Du Yingxiong jumped up from the ground in great surprise, and gave the visitor a big hug.

"Call your home. Auntie said you're back." The man named Er Fei punched Du Yingxiong affectionately, then tugged on the tight police uniform on his body, and joked in a teasing tone, "I Thinking about it, the leader of the General Bureau is back, and the criminal police in our county must hurry to pay their respects to the pier!"

"It's useless to talk about it. Look at your figure, it hasn't changed at all." Du Yingxiong smiled, and asked while sitting back in front of the fishing rod, "Call my house specially, what do you want me to do?"

"Cough, time flies so fast. We haven't seen each other for six or seven years, right?" Er Fei ignored Du Yingxiong's question and sighed, then walked to him and sat down on the floor, staring at him for a while. The buoy on the fishing line said with a smile on the corner of his mouth, "Do you remember that one winter, when the Chinese New Year was almost approaching, we two played very late at Mr. Chang, and Mr. Chang left us for dinner and made dumplings for us ?”

"Hehe, why don't I remember! When I got home, I foolishly told my mother that the dumplings made by Master Chang were very delicious. The ingredients were enough, and the soup was very delicious. I didn't know how to do it, and the meat was boiled." " Du Yingxiong paused for a moment, with a trace of sourness on his face, "My mother smiled first, and then said with red eyes, silly boy, that's the way Master Chang ate in poverty."

"Yeah, I went home and told my mother, and my mother was very distressed, saying that Master Chang had no money to buy meat during the Chinese New Year, so he could only buy some cheap meat skin and boil it into jelly to satisfy Boss Chang's hunger." Er Fei He also put away the smile at the corner of his mouth, stopped talking, and for a moment, with an extremely solemn expression, said in a trembling voice, "Boss Chang has an accident. He killed someone and was arrested!"

"Kill?!" Du Yingxiong's body shook suddenly, followed by a series of questions, "Who is the other party? Why? When did it happen?"

"It's been a while. Two or three months ago, the victim was a woman who sold health care products and lived in Hongxing Alley. That woman had been with Boss Chang for a while, and she tricked him into buying a bunch of useless things. Health care products, and then kicked him. Our squadron thinks: It is very likely that Boss Chang still did not give up on the victim after he broke up with the victim, so when he met the victim who came home alone on the night of the incident, he After being sternly rejected, he became angry and committed crimes with passion." Er Fei replied in one breath.

"Did he really fall in love with that woman?" Du Yingxiong asked.

"It's true, he told me." Er Fei nodded vigorously and said, "It's true that I was tricked into buying health care products and kicked."

"So, there is a motive..." Du Yingxiong pondered for a while, and then asked, "What about the evidence?"

"The evidence is not good for Boss Chang. The scene is in Hongxing Lane, where Boss Chang's belt was found and it has been confirmed as the murder weapon. The woman's fingernails still have skin tissue from Boss Chang." Er Fei responded, and continued. He added, "However, the case has not yet been handed over to the prosecutor's office."

"What's the problem?" Du Yingxiong asked.

"The main reason is that Boss Chang refused to plead guilty, was interrogated several times, and always claimed that he was wronged; secondly, he said that he had passed a man in the alley on the night of the crime, and he thought that man was the real murderer. But He can't give any more specific information except for a man's back." Er Fei sighed forcefully, a trace of anxiety flashed across his face, "The team is based on the principle of prudence in handling cases, and is also based on a responsible attitude towards Boss Chang. A large-scale interview was conducted with the residents in the area around Hongxing Lane. On the one hand, they hoped to find potential witnesses; Few people go out, and the male residents involved in the investigation also have proofs that they were not at the scene at the time of the crime. Therefore, the team is now basically inclined that the so-called suspect is fabricated by Chang Boss, and the case may be sent to the police in the near future. check."

"Oh." Du Yingxiong nodded lightly, then fell silent.

At this point, Du Yingxiong already understood Erfei's intention in looking for him. Erfei should want him to help Chang Boss reverse the case.Of course, if it comes to brotherhood, Du Yingxiong is obliged.But the question is how to help?Can he help?Leaving nothing else aside, just saying that the Ministry of Support clearly stipulates that "no member shall interfere with the handling of cases by local grassroots units without authorization" is enough for Du Yingxiong to eat a pot!Well, even if it can be concealed from the Ministry, Du Yingxiong works in other places all year round, and the resources in the local police circle are not as good as Erfei.Although in terms of police rank, he is not much worse than the head of the criminal police team in the small town of Fengshan, but "the county magistrate is not as good as the current one." If they don't want to give you this face, it's useless for you to ask.What's more, if you want to reverse the case of others, will they be willing to talk to you?Anyway, the current situation makes Du Yingxiong too embarrassed both publically and privately...

Seeing that Du Yingxiong was stunned and did not speak, Er Fei was a little impatient, and simply pointed out his intentions: "San'er, you have been wandering outside for so many years. Brother knows that it is not easy for you, so you are alienated from us, and we will not I blame you, but this time you must intervene in the case of Boss Chang. To be honest, I am just a low-level criminal policeman. It's too tall, as long as you are willing to help..."

"Do you believe Boss Chang is innocent?" Du Yingxiong suddenly turned his head and interrupted Er Fei's words.

"Of course I believe it, I believe it 70%." ​​Er Fei nodded vigorously, and then said with red eyes, "San'er, you don't know each other outside the past few years. It's really hard for Boss Chang and Master Chang to live together. Illness, diabetes, heart disease, and old rheumatism. Medication alone is a huge expense all year round. The old man can’t help it. He is over [-] years old and still pushes a cart to sell cotton candy on the street every day. Subsidize the family."

"Boss Chang has been very unlucky in the past few years. After working as a hairdressing apprentice for several years, he finally opened a shop by himself, but within a few months, and for some unknown reason, he suddenly suffered from an allergy to perm water, which was serious. To the point where I could faint on the spot, the barber shop could no longer do it, and I had to find another way to make a living. Later, I applied to a housing agency to sell second-hand houses. I didn’t realize that the company was unreliable, and I worked for less than a year. The boss ran away, not only took away the client's money, but also left Chang Boss and the others without salary for several months. Later, he took two jobs, but they didn't go well, so he ran to the southern city with a friend , I got on an ocean-going fishing boat and went fishing in the open sea. I worked hard on the sea for a year, but I was cheated again. I agreed to pay a salary of 3 yuan a year. The next one is [-] yuan or [-] yuan. The key is that not only did he not earn any money, but he was exhausted when he came back at the beginning of the year. I really can’t stand it anymore. I asked a lot of connections to find a courier for him. He also catches up with the popularity of online shopping now, and he is willing to work hard, and he earns a lot after a month." Er Fei talked a lot in one breath, and finally sighed and said, "Hey, I think life is easier now It's over, Master Chang finally doesn't have to go out and run around, but this kind of shit happened again. San'er, second brother, I beg you, find someone from above, can you talk to the boss?"

"Okay, let me think about it!" Du Yingxiong replied lightly, hesitated for a moment, and said carefully, "The case must be based on evidence, so let's not think about trusting relationships."

"Of course, of course, I mean the same thing. If the boss really did it, it's useless if God comes." Er Fei realized his slip of the tongue just now, and hurriedly explained, then stood up and slapped the dust off his buttocks. Bian said flatly, "Let's go, give me a message as soon as possible."

"San'er, you've matured, I'm so happy to see you today!" Er Fei didn't take a few steps, but turned around suddenly, and said meaningfully.

"Me too." Du Yingxiong also turned his head and responded with a subtle smile.

After Erfei left, Du Yingxiong sat by the reservoir for a long time, thinking about the past with Chang Boss and Erfei, which can be described as vivid in his memory, and he couldn't help feeling a lot...

When I was still in kindergarten, the three younger brothers learned the allusion of "Taoyuan Three Brothers" in the comic book. In the yard of the kindergarten, they piled up a small soil bag with soil, inserted three branches, and sprinkled bubbles on it. urine, they became brothers with different surnames.Chang Boss, whose surname is Chang and named An, is one year older than Er Fei and Du Yingxiong, so he is the eldest; Born every year, but the birthday is slightly younger, so he ranks third.

These three brothers are both worship brothers and fat children, and they were all born in Hongxing Lane.Back then, the area around Hongxing Lane belonged to the family residential area of ​​Fengshan Hongxing Machinery Factory. Du Yingxiong's parents, Wang Kun's parents and Chang An's grandfather were all workers in the factory, and they all got a small house in the factory's family building.

Chang An's grandfather is the "Chang Ye" mentioned by Wang Kun just now. In fact, he is not Chang An's real grandfather, but a lonely old man who has been single all his life.He was 45 years old that year, and he picked up an abandoned baby who had just been born next to the garbage dump under the old locust tree at the entrance of the factory. Thinking that his parents had died young, and he could never be called a wife, he adopted the abandoned baby in order to avoid being lonely. , which is now Chang'an.

Du Yingxiong and Wang Kun heard about Chang An's background from their parents very early on. Of course, they never mentioned it in front of Chang An, nor did Chang An. As for whether he knew his real life experience, Du Yingxiong and Wang Kun Kun didn't know either.However, Chang An has been very sensible since he was a child, and he is also very filial to Master Chang. The grandfather and grandson depend on each other for life, and life can be regarded as enjoyable.

By the end of the 20s, Du Yingxiong's parents, Wang Kun's parents and Chang Ye lost their jobs one after another in the wave of industrial workers being laid off.Because Mr. Chang was too honest by nature, dull, and not good at speaking, he couldn't find a job after he was laid off. Later, with the help of kind workers, he bought a machine for making cotton candy and started selling cotton candy along the street.Although it can be regarded as a living, but with small capital and small profits, the grandfather and grandson can only barely make ends meet.

Of course, rich and poor, noble and humble are nothing to the three younger brothers, and their friendship has not been affected by changes in family circumstances, and they are still inseparable and play together all day long.It wasn't until after graduating from the third grade of junior high school that Du Yingxiong and Wang Kun successfully entered high school, while Chang An chose to enter the society to work in order to reduce the burden on Chang Ye, and their relationship began to have some distance.Later, both Du Yingxiong and Wang Kun's family bought new buildings and moved away one after another. The chances of the three meeting each other were even less.Later, after graduating from high school, Wang Kun was admitted to the Provincial Police Academy, Du Yingxiong was admitted to the Capital Police Academy, and the three brothers basically lost contact with each other.Du Yingxiong, in particular, was selected by the General Bureau of Criminal Investigation during his school days to participate in an undercover operation against drug dealers, and then joined the Serious Case Support Department. He has been working and handling cases all over the country for many years. In recent years, he has rarely visited his parents at home. Poor, let alone contact with friends...

The last time Du Yingxiong saw Chang An was the night before he left home to go to school in Beijing.The two brothers emptied two bottles of Yushu Daqu, and chatted for most of the night... It is difficult for Du Yingxiong to remember exactly what they said, but Chang An kept saying over and over again: "Third brother, you must play well when you go out, and you must Mix it up..."

At some point, the setting sun was approaching the western mountain, and a chilly air began to emerge from the autumn wind, which also awakened Du Yingxiong, who was immersed in the memories of the past.He took out his mobile phone and dialed Gu Feifei's number: "Sister Gu, I have some personal matters and would like to ask for a few days off. Also, I would like to ask you for a favor..."

Difficult to meet in the second quarter
Fengshan Criminal Police Squadron, conference room.

Squadron leader Yao Jian has a Chinese character face, thick eyebrows and big eyes, and a tall and strong figure. From his appearance, he will not exceed 40 years old. He is in the prime of life when he is working, and he feels very energetic and stable.

For Du Yingxiong's arrival, Yao Jian was obviously not surprised, and even prepared the relevant materials of the case early for Du Yingxiong to study.As for what happened, the two of them were tacit.Well, in fact, Gu Feifei approached Wu Guoqing, who then greeted the relevant leaders of the Fengshan Public Security Bureau, and Du Yingxiong was able to access the case information at this moment.

The time of the incident was around 7:9 p.m. on July 11 this year. A young man who was returning home by the last train walked to the entrance of Hongxing Lane North Street and accidentally fell into an open horse gourd well. A female body was found underground and the police were called.

Victim: Zhao Xiaolan, female, 24 years old, from other provinces, rented alone in Hongxing Lane North Street, Linhe Street since February 2015.Time of death: roughly two hours before the incident, that is, around 2:7 p.m. on July 9 this year.Cause of death: Mechanical asphyxia caused by external force strangulation.

The on-site inspection showed that: in the horse gourd well, half of a male belt made of cowhide was found, which was confirmed by the forensic doctor as a noose for committing the crime. Washed by sewage and rainwater, no usable fingerprints were collected on the two belts, but human dander was collected at the buckle of the belt; in addition, skin tissue was also collected in the nail crevice of the middle finger of the victim's right hand.As for Zhao Xiaolan's mobile phone, it should have been broken during the murderer's throwing of the body, and it was also soaked in sewage and rainwater. This key evidence cannot provide any clues.However, after DNA screening of male residents in the area around the crime, it was found that the belt and the skin tissue in the victim's nails belonged to a young man named Chang An who lived near the crime scene.

Criminal suspect: Chang An, male, 28 years old, native of this city, lives in the same city as the victim, Hongxing Lane North Street, Linhe Street, and works as a logistics courier. He had been in love with the victim for a period of time at the beginning of the year, and the woman proposed to break up in mid-May... …

Detention center, interrogation room.

After reading the case materials, Du Yingxiong "made an inch" and proposed to meet Chang An.This made Yao Jian very embarrassed, because the law clearly stipulates that during the investigation and interrogation stage, as the suspect, no one except the lawyer is allowed to meet with him.Yao Jian didn't want to lose face to Du Yingxiong, and of course he didn't want to violate the principle, so after deliberating for a while, he came up with a compromise solution-Du Yingxiong talked to Chang An as a co-investigator of the case handling party, and Yao Jian also wanted to present.

Now, the tall and thin Chang An was brought in by the police from the detention center. He walked limply to the chair and sat down, with his eyes on the floor and not at the person across from him. He seemed to have a lot of resistance to interrogation.

After a moment of silence, Chang An moved his butt forward, leaned against the back of the chair, deliberately showing a lazy and indifferent look, then slowly raised his head, and said with a sneer: "I have already said what should be said." Eight hundred times, is it interesting that you always torment me like this? It’s still the same sentence, I definitely didn’t kill people, and you don’t want to frame good people..."

Chang An suddenly stopped talking, froze for a moment, sat up straight quickly, and put away his previous sloppiness.Because he could see clearly that besides Yao Jian, who had interrogated him several times, sitting across from him was a more familiar face—his good brother, Du Yingxiong.His eyes turned red all of a sudden, his lips trembled twice, as if he wanted to say something, but he couldn't say it.In an instant, he lowered his head again and rubbed his handcuffed hands back and forth, seeming a little uneasy and ashamed.

The same goes for Du Yingxiong. He never thought that he would meet his good brother in this way for the first time in many years.At the moment when the four eyes met, he was extremely sad in his heart, and he was even more ashamed when he remembered that he had hesitated about this trip before.He took out a cigarette from the cigarette box on the table, put it to his mouth and lit it, then got up and walked to Chang An, and stuffed the cigarette into his hand.Watching Chang An raise his head, he put the cigarette to his mouth and took a deep puff before turning around and sitting behind the interrogation table.

This may seem like an understatement, but it actually has a lot of meaning.On the one hand, it can be understood as a usual soft way of treating criminal suspects during interrogation. Of course, this is for Yao Jian to see; on the other hand, it is also Du Yingxiong's real intention. Good intentions also hope that Chang An can let go of all kinds of negative emotions and focus on this questioning.

"On the evening of July 7th, it was already very late. What are you going out for?" Du Yingxiong asked in a businesslike tone.

Chang An is not stupid, of course he understands that Du Yingxiong must have come to help him when he appeared at this time, so even though he has answered such questions several times, he quickly cheered up and responded seriously: "It was the weekend, and there was a ball game in the middle of the night. Make an appointment with a few friends to find a place to drink and watch the game together."

"What time is it when you go out?" Du Yingxiong asked.

"It's nearly 9:[-]," Chang An said emphatically, "I looked at my watch when I went out."

"Why did your belt appear at the scene of the crime? And the victim Zhao Xiaolan's nails, how could there be your flesh?" Du Yingxiong asked two questions that had a direct impact on the verdict.

"It's a coincidence, bad luck!" Chang An sighed, and then explained in detail, "That night, I made an appointment with my friend to go out to watch the game. When I left home, there was already a drink at my friend's place. I was anxious and walked a little bit harder. Zhao Xiaolan should have just come back from the outside at that time, it was raining, she didn't bring an umbrella, so she trotted to get home quickly. What a coincidence, she was wearing high heels, and the ground was slippery. I kicked my feet, and the whole person rushed towards me. As I said just now, I also walked in a hurry, so she bumped into me and bounced back. I didn't see who it was at the time, and I wanted to grab her instinctively out of good intentions. She also instinctively scratched at my hand. It may be such a process. Her nails scratched my hand and tore my belt. Later we saw each other clearly and were embarrassed and couldn't say anything. , I turned my head and left. After walking a few steps, I found that the belt was broken, and I happened to be wearing tight-waisted jeans.

"And then?" Du Yingxiong asked.

"Later when I walked to the alley, I felt a man walking past me..." Chang An said.

"What do you mean by 'feeling'?" Du Yingxiong frowned, his voice raised slightly, interrupting Chang An's words, and asked suspiciously.Because such ambiguous words did not appear in the confession he had read earlier.

"No, that..." Seemed to be stabbed to the point, Chang An was at a loss for words for a while, quickly avoided Du Yingxiong's stern gaze, and said falteringly, "That night... I really met that person at the entrance of the alley that night, But... At that time, I was holding an umbrella, and my sight was blocked. Especially, the previous collision with Zhao Xiaolan made me a little distracted, and the whole person was in a state of enlightenment, so...so I just felt that someone was carrying a gust of wind Walking past me, as for others... I don't know whether that person is a man or a woman. I... I didn't mean to lie, I just think the murderer must be a man. "

"As expected, I knew you were dishonest!" Yao Jian, who had been silent all this time, tapped Chang An vigorously with his fingers a few times, then snorted coldly, and said in a mocking tone, "Hmph, you are making up nonsense!" The speed is quite fast, if Officer Du was not keen to catch the loopholes in your words, I am afraid you would still stick to the original set of rhetoric? To be honest, there are no other suspects at all, right? "

"Yes, yes, yes... San'er, oh no, Officer Du, what I said this time is all true, you have to believe me!" Chang An emphasized hastily.

"Okay, don't yell." Du Yingxiong looked up at Chang An, motioned him to calm down, stared at him for a while, then said in a calm tone, "I can believe that you are trying to explain the facts in a hurry. It’s an exaggeration, so I’ll give you another chance now. Relax, calm your mind, carefully recall the scene at that time, and listen to any clues you can think of about the person you mentioned.”

"No more." Chang An shook his head in pain, and replied without thinking, "Well, to be honest, during the time I was in the detention center, I was thinking about that person every day, but I really had nothing to say."

"It's okay, don't worry, stay relaxed." Du Yingxiong comforted and guided, "Then let's go back to the scene where you collided with Zhao Xiaolan, and you can describe Zhao Xiaolan's whole situation at that time, for example Clothes, mood, smell, or whether you're holding something in your hand, etc."

"Nothing special, the clothes are the short-sleeved white shirt she usually wears, dark blue trousers, and black high-heeled shoes. There is a half-sized leather bag on her shoulder, which she usually carries..." Chang An frowned, Trying my best to recall, "I don't seem to be in a good mood, and the smell... By the way, when she approached me, I could smell the smell of alcohol in her mouth, but I remember that she basically doesn't drink much."

……

Section [-] Case Reconstruction
Fengshan Hongxing Machinery Factory was built in the early days of the founding of New China. At the same time, an idle land not far from the north of the factory was planned as a welfare housing area for employees.Rows of two-story and three-story small buildings with red brick walls were built one after another, forming criss-cross streets and alleys, hence the name "Red Star Alley".

More than half a century has passed in a blink of an eye. Fengshan County was withdrawn from the county and established as a city, and Hongxing Machinery Factory was merged and relocated. The whole society has undergone earth-shaking changes. However, due to various historical problems, Hongxing Lane has never been demolished and rebuilt. Surrounded by and set off by distant high-rise buildings, it looks more and more like a slum.

Walking in the alleys, Du Yingxiong is both familiar and unfamiliar.

There is a filthy feeling everywhere, the smell of sewers wafts in the air, and the small buildings that were prosperous in the past have long lost their true colors, and all kinds of wild advertisements are scattered on the walls, which is particularly mottled.All kinds of illegal structures occupy both sides of the street, making the streets and alleys narrower and messier.Most of the original residents have moved away, and the rest are either old or cannot afford a house. Although there are a few people who Du Yingxiong can't name, they still feel familiar, and more They are strange faces from outside to make a living and rent.

Du Yingxiong originally planned to visit Master Chang first, but Wang Kun said that Master Chang should still be doing business outside at the moment, and the two immediately entered the main topic of the trip-trying to find clues that were previously missed through on-the-spot crime simulation.

The crime took place in a north-south alley on North Street of Hongxing Alley. The suspect Chang An lived in a three-story tube building on the east side of the alley near the entrance of the alley. The house rented by the victim, Zhao Xiaolan, was further down the alley. Walk six 70 meters.

File data shows that the first crime scene was located about ten meters away from the south side of Chang'an's house. The murderer strangled the victim from behind at this location, and then dragged the victim for more than 20 meters to the side of a horse gourd well at the entrance of the North Alley. Go up, remove the manhole cover, throw the victim down the well, and then flee the scene in a hurry.Generally speaking, this is how the murderer committed the crime. The process is not complicated and the duration is relatively short, but there is still something worth studying in it-what kind of psychological state does the murderer "abandon the corpse in the well" reflect? ?
At this time, Du Yingxiong and Wang Kun squatted beside the horse gourd well at the entrance of the alley, removed the well cover again, and looked into the well.This is a heating well with a depth of about 3 meters, and it becomes wider as it goes down. The underground part is square, with a length and width of about two meters. There are some garbage and sewage in it. Handrails are built on the wall, so you can go up and down. climb.

"Why do you think the murderer threw the body down the well?" Du Yingxiong asked looking up into the distance, watching the trail.

"What's the trouble with this?" Wang Kun said nonchalantly, "Of course I want to hide the corpse!"

"That is to say, the murderer's ultimate goal is to delay the time as much as possible, increase the difficulty of police handling the case, and reduce the risk of being arrested, right?" Du Yingxiong changed the subject, "This is just a judgment of normal thinking. From the perspective of risk assessment, the process of the murderer dragging the victim is obviously more risky, and the view at the entrance of the alley is wide, which also increases the risk of being witnessed. What's more, the murderer did not move the manhole cover back to the original place after abandoning the body. The so-called concealment effect cannot be achieved at all.”

"Well..." Wang Kun smacked his lips and said, "The team thinks that someone might have scared him away at that time, and he didn't have time to put the manhole cover back on."

"But you have been visiting for more than two months, and you have talked to almost all potential witnesses in the entire Red Star Lane, but you have not found such a witness, have you?" Du Yingxiong retorted.

"That's true," Wang Kun said, nodding his head vigorously, "there were actually quite a lot of people in this area. It rained heavily that night and there were no people on the street. Otherwise, the murderer would never have succeeded so easily. What do you mean? "

"Maybe he just wanted to expose the body, and he wanted to show the world the victim's embarrassing death." Du Yingxiong frowned slightly, stared for a while, and said thoughtfully, "If this is really a crime-marking action, Chang An will There is hope."

"What? What is a marked action? It can overturn the team's conclusion?" Wang Kun was obviously unfamiliar with this term, so he hurriedly asked.

"Forget it, let's not talk about this for now, let's go to Master Chang." Du Yingxiong hesitated and changed the subject.It's just a preliminary tendency, and it has yet to be considered in the context of the whole case. He doesn't want to give Wang Kun unnecessary hopes right now.

Sunshine Kindergarten is the largest private kindergarten in Linhe Street.Every time when school is over, some old men and women who set up street stalls gather on the sidewalk at the gate. The urban management has come to deal with it many times, but it has not had much effect.Among them, the oldest one belonged to Lord Chang. His hair was all white, his body was thinner than before, his back was bent, and he seemed to be smaller than Du Yingxiong's impression.

At this time, Master Chang was very busy, surrounded by a group of chattering little guys. Master Chang tremblingly rolled a bunch of marshmallows with his callused hands. There was still a sense of malaise and fatigue that couldn't be concealed.Du Yingxiong was sitting in the car across the street watching, feeling a pang of sadness in his heart, and was about to get out of the car to say hello, when he suddenly heard a commotion from the crowd...

"Eat, eat, eat to death! What is there to eat? It's so dirty. Didn't you see that old man's clothes are dirty and his hands are black. How dare you eat that candy? You'll have diarrhea if you eat it." , do you hear...here, old man, quickly take that bastard of yours back..."

"Hey, why are you like this? It's your child who insists on eating cotton candy, but you don't buy it. The old man kindly gave the child a bunch of them. You don't appreciate it. Why are you yelling at the old man? , and throw the marshmallows on the ground?"

"That's right, you are a young man who dresses very stylishly, why don't you have any quality at all?"

"Mothers are so uneducated, can they educate their children well?"

"I take care of my children, what are you arguing about..."

With a shout that suppressed everyone's voice, a young woman dressed in noble clothes rushed out of the crowd, dragged a little boy in her hand, got into a high-end car on the side of the street aggressively, and started the car.And Master Chang stared blankly at the cotton candy thrown on the ground, his face turning red and then pale.After a while, he blinked his eyes vigorously, grinned the corners of his mouth, concealed an embarrassed smile, lowered his head and continued to roll up the cotton candy...

Unexpectedly, this scene would happen suddenly, Wang Kun's anger came out all at once, he uttered a national curse, and was about to push the door to get out of the car, but was grabbed by Du Yingxiong.He knew that meeting at this time would only make Master Chang feel more uncomfortable, and he would feel even more embarrassed.

Wang Kun blushed, started the car unwillingly, drove not far away, slammed on the brakes, and said sullenly, "San'er, you have read the file, you have also seen the boss, and the scene is also here." If you’ve been there, don’t play Shen Shen with me anymore, tell me the truth, can you handle this case? Is there any hope of getting the boss out?”

"Don't worry," Wang Kun said in a sharp tone. It was obvious that Master Chang's experience made him feel distressed, so Du Yingxiong didn't pick on him, and thought for a while and said, "Generally speaking, your case is pretty good. There is evidence and evidence, but the background investigation of the victim is too general. Of course, it may be because the suspect was brought to justice too early, and the motive and evidence for the crime are relatively clear, so your team did not pay enough attention In fact, there are still doubts about the victim. The autopsy report showed that Zhao Xiaolan had a certain amount of alcohol in her blood, and Chang Boss in the detention center also said that when he met Zhao Xiaolan that night, she felt that she was not in a good mood and smelled She smelled of alcohol, especially when she mentioned that Zhao Xiaolan doesn't usually drink much..."

"You're right. Within a few days after the incident, the team basically identified Boss Chang as the murderer, and didn't put too much energy on Zhao Xiaolan. But does the drinking before her death have anything to do with the case?" Wang Kun interrupted him. , said in vain.

"Of course it has something to do with it." Du Yingxiong said, "Zhao Xiaolan drank before she died, which means that there is an additional possibility of being killed. Where did she drink? Why did she drink that night when she never drank? And , Who did she drink with? What is the relationship between them? Is there any mutual interest? Is there any emotional entanglement? Does the person she drank with have any motive to kill?"

"I see. You want to use this as a starting point to help Boss Chang reverse the case, right?" Wang Kun slapped the steering wheel vigorously, feeling overwhelmed, and asked, "By the way, do you also have a clue about the way the murderer abandoned the corpse?" I have a question, what do you mean by the criminal mark you mentioned?"

"I haven't figured this out yet. Give me some time. I need to combine multiple evidences and details to come up with a relatively clear answer." Du Yingxiong said sincerely.

Du Yingxiong said that it was wrong, but he had already made up his mind in his heart. It was also because Chang Ye’s brutal humiliation touched him a lot. He decided to take a gamble—choose to fully believe that Chang An is innocent, and will do everything in his power to help him reverse the case .The problem is that I am weak and do not have the right to conduct public investigations. If I only search for clues with Wang Kun in private, I am afraid that it will be difficult to achieve results in a short period of time, so I still want to use Gu Feifei's connections to insert him into the investigation of the case. In the group, of course, the ideal is to be able to move the entire support group.

Although Gu Feifei is much gentler now, her calmness and integrity have not changed at all. She is a person who follows principles extremely, that is to say, her attitude on this matter is very clear: since Fengshan City Public Security Bureau The bureau has identified the case, and relatively speaking, the case is not vicious enough to use the manpower of the bureau, not to mention that Fengshan did not apply for assistance in handling the case, so Gu Feifei is very rational about Du Yingxiong's two expectations rejected it.

Of course, as a team, a team that can entrust their lives to each other, if anyone in it needs help, no matter how difficult it is, everyone will not completely stand by.Although Gu Feifei and Ai Xiaomei cannot go to Fengshan, they can provide some help to Du Yingxiong remotely.Not only that, but Gu Feifei also wanted Han Yin to go to Fengshan for a visit. Han Yin was not in the support department of the General Administration, and his identity was relatively unprovocative, but she didn't know if Han Yin could make time, so she didn't It was not disclosed to Du Yingxiong.

The fourth quarter, the master goes out
The next day, Du Yingxiong scanned and copied various forensic appraisal reports, made electronic documents and sent them to Gu Feifei's mailbox. At the same time, he sent the ID card, credit card, mobile phone, WeChat, QQ and other numbers of the victim Zhao Xiaolan obtained by the Fengshan police earlier. The information was also sent to Ai Xiaomi.As for Zhao Xiaolan's cell phone, Du Yingxiong also tried to suggest to Yao Jian to express it to the laboratory of the General Administration for repair, but Yao Jian said that he could not decide this, and had to ask the bureau for instructions.Considering that it is not appropriate to publicize it at present, and in terms of the degree of damage to the mobile phone, the possibility of repair is very small, so Du Yingxiong no longer reluctantly.

After finishing the above tasks, Du Yingxiong and Wang Kun went to the health care product monopoly company where Zhao Xiaolan worked before her death. I learned from some of her colleagues: Zhao Xiaolan joined the company in June last year. , the performance is also good, but she doesn't have much contact with her colleagues outside of work, so her colleagues don't know much about her private life, and no one admits that she had a drink with Zhao Xiaolan on the night of the incident.

After coming out of the health care product company, the whole morning passed, and he was looking for a place to eat when Du Yingxiong's cell phone rang.After answering the call, he was pleasantly surprised and moved. It turned out that Han Yin flew to Fengshan on the first flight, and at this time he had already arrived at the Municipal Bureau.

Du Yingxiong and Wang Kun hurried over to meet Han Yin, and they were naturally very kind when they met.After exchanging pleasantries, Han Yin and Wang Kun were introduced to each other, and the three found a place to eat, and exchanged the case while eating.After dinner, Du Yingxiong introduced Han Yin to Yao Jian, and then accompanied him to get acquainted with the situation of the case files.

It is really an expert who will know if there is one as soon as he makes a move.In the evening, Gu Feifei called and asked Han Yin and Du Yingxiong to go online immediately for an online video conference, presumably they had discovered something.

Turn on the computer, connect to the Internet, click on the video software, and soon Gu Feifei and Ai Xiaomei appeared on the computer screen.Gu Feifei went straight to the topic and said: "There is no problem with the autopsy, but some clues revealed may have been ignored by the previous case investigators. From the report, in addition to fatal wounds on the victim's body, there were contusions on the occipital scalp Symptoms, and a compression fracture of the cervical spine, these are all obvious high-fall injuries, which should be caused by the murderer throwing the corpse. However, judging from the high-fall injury site, the body should have landed on the back of the head when it fell into the well, and then The landing position should be supine or side lying, but from the photos at the scene, the victim’s face is close to the ground, in a prone position..."

"The corpse was moved underground?" Du Yingxiong interrupted, with a hint of excitement in his tone.

"Yes." Gu Feifei nodded heavily.

"So, the murderer's series of actions to throw the body are really unusual actions?" Du Yingxiong turned to Han Yin and asked.

"Not only that, the murderer climbed down the well, risking great danger, just to change a position, showing that putting the victim's body face down into a prone position has become a compulsive action, which also means that this should not be his first time. commit a crime." Han Yin nodded and said calmly.

"Great, Chang An is really saved now, he can't be a serial killer!" Du Yingxiong slapped his thigh vigorously and said emotionally.

"Why is it impossible? Why is it so easy to draw conclusions?" Han Yin frowned, staring at Du Yingxiong and asked, "Background information records that Chang An is an abandoned baby. Especially when he learned the truth of his life experience after he became an adult, it is hard to guarantee that his psychology will not be fissioned; and the place where he was abandoned was next to a garbage dump, and the dirty and messy horse gourd underground can be regarded as Is it the same attribute as the garbage dump?"

"You mean, in this way, Chang An's suspicion is even greater?" Du Yingxiong froze the smile on his face, and asked in a probing tone.

"That's not what I mean. I want to tell you that you are a policeman first, and Chang An's good buddy second. No matter what your subjective will is, you must abide by objective facts, start from evidence, and don't be irrational. Emotions are left and right, understand?" Han Yin obviously saw Du Yingxiong's emotional and subjective tendencies in the case are too serious, which is definitely not the quality that an excellent criminal police should show, so he must be difficult for him and curb it in time Stop this irrational sign.

"Oh, yes, yes..." Du Yingxiong blushed after being hit by Han Yin, and he lowered his head falteringly, speechless like a primary school student who made a mistake.

The scene was slightly embarrassing, and even Ai Xiaomei, who was across the screen, felt it, so she hurriedly interrupted and said in a brisk tone: "It's my turn! It's my turn! It's my turn to talk about my great achievements! I checked Communication records related to Zhao Xiaolan’s mobile phone number. She makes a lot of calls every day. I roughly sorted out her communication records in the three months before she was killed. Most of the phone numbers only appeared once or twice. There are 3 relatively fixed phone numbers. , I have sorted out the corresponding registration information, and I will send it to you later. As for the day of the murder, she had 8 communication records, and the specific information will be sent to you later. Of course, people use WeChat more now, and the more Those who have a close relationship prefer to use WeChat to communicate. I copied Zhao Xiaolan’s mobile phone number and logged in to her WeChat, but the chat history was left on the original phone, and I couldn’t see it. In addition, her friends in WeChat circle of friends are too many. There are too many, and I can't find anything for a while. But I found that this mobile phone number is also bound to a cloud account, and the password is the same as the WeChat password, which is her birthday date in the lunar calendar. Even better, this cloud account is synchronized In other words, the photos taken by Zhao Xiaolan through the phone camera will not only be stored in the phone, but will also be uploaded to the cloud for storage. I carefully looked at her photos in the cloud storage, including her and the suspect In the group photo of Ren Changan, there is also another man, here, it is him..."

While talking, Ai Xiaomei put the photo of Zhao Xiaolan and a middle-aged man on the computer screen, and then said: "The first time this man's photo appeared on the cloud was at the end of April, and Zhao Xiaolan met with him in mid-May. Chang An's hand, judging from the timing, she probably dumped Chang An because of this man. Zhao Xiaolan and this man have many intimate selfies, but most of them are concentrated in relatively private places such as hotel rooms or restaurants. The man's age seems to be much older than Zhao Xiaolan, I guess she is someone else's mistress. On the day of the incident, around 4 o'clock, Zhao Xiaolan uploaded a selfie, the place was in a restaurant, it seemed that she was waiting It was taken between people. Maybe she is waiting for the man in the photo, I believe that is the person you are looking for to drink with Zhao Xiaolan."

……

After going offline, Han Yin and Du Yingxiong immediately went to the squadron leader Yao Jian and proposed to read the files that had been listed as accumulated cases in Fengshan City in recent years.If the murderer is not committing the crime for the first time, does it mean that there is a serial killer lurking in Fengshan City at this very moment?
After staying up all night, after repeated reading and careful analysis, Han Yin and Du Yingxiong selected two suspected cases from the files.

case one.Victim: male, name, place of origin, and identity unknown, estimated from organ function status, aged between 50 and 55 years old, belonging to the vagrant population from outside.Time of death: around 2014:12 on December 19, 23.Location of the crime: Under the Qianjin Bridge on Yuchun Road, Changping Street, Fengshan City.The autopsy and on-site inspection showed that the deceased was hit by a liquor bottle vigorously in the fornix of the head, resulting in craniocerebral injury complicated by multiple organ failure and died. After death, he was thrown into a large iron trash can not far from the crime scene; The alcohol content in the drug was extremely high, and blood stains that did not belong to the deceased were found on the glass fragments of the wine bottle left at the scene. It was suspected that the murderer accidentally cut his hand when committing the crime, but no match was found in the criminal DNA database. .After reviewing the traffic surveillance video around the scene, due to the heavy fog that night, the clarity of the video was poor, and no effective clues could be obtained.The truth of this case has not been found out so far, and it has been listed as a backlog, and the investigation is temporarily suspended.

case two.Victim: Wang Caihua, female, 41 years old, from other provinces, sex worker.Time of death: around 2015:7 on July 3, 17.Location of the crime: In the public toilet of Ningshan Park, Chunyang Street, Fengshan City.The autopsy and on-site inspection showed that the deceased was killed by continuous hits on the back of the head with bricks. The body was then thrown on the stool squatting position, the clothes were neat, and the head was stuffed into the toilet bowl; As a result, evidence related to the murderer was destroyed.There are no monitoring facilities around the crime scene, and the murderer is still at large.

The reason why these two cases attracted the attention of Han Yin and Du Yingxiong is that some elements shown in the cases are very similar to the Hongxing Lane murder case.

As mentioned many times before, usually the determination of serial cases mainly involves three elements: the type of victim, criminal habit, and criminal markers.Integrating the above two cases with the murder of Zhao Xiaolan, Han Yin and Du Yingxiong discovered that the victims in the case were all foreigners, had no relatives in the local area, had low social status, and belonged to a group with a high risk of injury.

At first glance, the murder method seems to have little connection, but when you look at it from a macro perspective, you will find a similar randomness.Whether it is the location of the crime or the method of death, especially in the choice of the murder weapon, it is completely based on local materials-the victim's wine bottle was used in the first case, and the bricks on the toilet floor were used in the second case. He casually picked up the belt that Chang An dropped on the ground.

As for the link of criminal marking, the similarity is even higher, mainly reflected in the throwing of corpses: first, the murderer doesn’t care about the discovery of the corpse; Squatting stools, one is in the horse gourd well. It should be said that when mentioning these places, the same reaction in people’s minds is that the ground is dirty, stench, and filthy; again, from the photos of the scene, the three victims were thrown away. The body positions were all face down, in a prone position.

Of course, these are just preliminary inferences at present, and it can also be said to be on paper, and a lot of analysis and supporting work will be done on these two cases in the future.However, if the judgment is correct, the situation will change from only needing to pay attention to the Red Star Lane murder case to a series of cases that may need to be resolved in order to clear Chang An of the crime.

According to this idea, we must first thoroughly understand the ins and outs of the two old cases, and then integrate the case characteristics and behavioral evidence of the Red Star Lane Murder Case to figure out the implication of the murderer's criminal marking actions, the mode of choosing the criminal target, and even the psychological motivation of committing the crime. , and finally get the corresponding criminal psychology profiling report.

Therefore, when Han Yin and Du Yingxiong watched the sun rise from the east in the early morning of the next day, they both clearly realized that it might be impossible to achieve the goal in a short time.In view of time constraints and lack of manpower, Han Yin and Du Yingxiong chose to split into two groups. The former was responsible for linking the three cases together, while the latter and Wang Kun were responsible for investigating the social relations that intersected with the recent Hongxing Lane murder case.

Section [-] On-Site Visit
After breakfast, Han Yin appeared in the squadron leader's office and put two files on Yao Jian's desk.

"Why do you pay attention to these two cases again?" Suddenly asked about the two old cases, the squadron leader Yao Jian was a little puzzled for a while, stared at Han Yin in surprise for a while, and then said cautiously, "What are you interested in?" Isn't it the Red Star Lane case? Oh, did you check the files last night just to find these two cases?"

"That's not true. To be precise, we didn't know that there were two such cases beforehand." Han Yin smiled, thought about it, and said vaguely, "I don't know if it's convenient for you to take me to the scene. Shall I talk about these two cases in detail?"

"Why are you being so polite? There's nothing wrong with that. I have the impression of both cases. I led the brothers below to handle them." Yao Jian probably deliberately inquired about Han Yin's background, so he showed extra respect and straightforwardness. He said, "Let's go now and go to the Qianjin bridge."

Not long after they finished talking, the two drove away from the criminal police team. After driving for more than ten minutes, the car stopped under a bridge pier.

"Here, this is the place where the victim used torn cardboard boxes to live. It was also the first crime scene, and the body was thrown into that trash can." The two got out of the car, and Yao Jian pointed to the place in front of the bridge wall. An open space, and pointed to a tin trash can on the side of the road.

After a short pause, Yao Jian went on to say: "You should have read the materials. No one knows where the victim came from and when he lived here. No identification was found on the body or in the belongings, and there was no announcement from the assisted investigation of the source of the corpse. I got feedback, but according to some people around him, he didn’t speak with a local accent, and he made a living by picking up junk for some money.”

Han Yin gave a "hmm" and didn't answer any more, but turned around and looked around.The Qianjin Bridge connects two main urban roads in the north and south, crosses an east-west secondary arterial road, and is the transportation hub between the surrounding residential quarters and the urban arterial road.On the left and right sides of the bridge, there are some small shops along the roadside. The closest to the scene is a ramen restaurant 60 meters away diagonally opposite.Han Yin's gaze circled around, and finally fixed on the signboard of the small ramen restaurant...

"I remember a witness?" Han Yin asked intently.

"Yes, yes, in fact, it is not an eyewitness." Yao Jian followed Han Yin's line of sight, then understood his thoughts, and replied, "It's the owner of the ramen restaurant, let's go, go and have a look. I don’t know if the current boss has changed.”

Before Yao Jian finished speaking, Han Yin had already stepped forward, and Yao Jian took a few steps to catch up, and soon they walked into the ramen restaurant together.As soon as he entered the door, a middle-aged man came up to greet him. Yao Jian took a good look, then grabbed the man and said, "That's great, it's you. We met before. Do you remember me?" He took out his police ID from his handbag.

The boss glanced at the certificate, then carefully looked at Yao Jian, nodded and said, "Oh, I remembered, did you ask me to find out about the situation that year when the trash collector under the bridge was killed? Remember you are a leader, please sit down, please sit down, sit down and talk."

"Yes, it's me." Yao Jian and Han Yin sat down on the empty seat beside the warm greeting of the boss. Yao Jian pointed to the opposite chair and said to the boss, "Sit down too, I want to chat with you again. Let's talk about the case."

"Haven't you caught anyone yet?" The boss was a little surprised, and then said, "Actually, I didn't see anything back then. I just got up in the middle of the night to go to the bathroom and heard the noise of arguing outside. When I went out to look, there was no sound. Plus It was very foggy last night, so I didn’t look carefully, thinking that the junk picker must have been drunk again, bluffing on his own, so I went back to the house and continued to sleep.”

"Did the deceased have any contact with you before he was alive? He often quarreled with others?" Han Yin finally interrupted and asked.

"Have a little relationship." The boss nodded and said, "He probably lived under the bridge for a long time. He was wearing thin clothes and bedding in five winters and six summers, especially in winter when it was very cold. One year I I felt sorry for him, so I gave him an old padded jacket. Since then, he greeted me very politely every time he saw me. How should I put it, this man is usually kind, but he is addicted to alcohol and sells junk. Money, he would rather buy wine than eat, and he would get drunk every time he drank, and when he was drunk, he would lie in his little den and swear wildly. like a person."

"What is he scolding?" Han Yin asked.

"Don't tell me, once I really leaned over and listened carefully for a while." The boss laughed "hehe" twice, and said with some embarrassment, "It's actually nothing, just yelling those few words back and forth. What? Who is a slut, a broken shoe, who messed with a man and a woman, and even slapped himself, saying that he is a coward, a wimp, and deserves to be cuckolded... Anyway, I feel like I am incompetent, and my wife ran away with someone , the spirit is a little stimulated."

Due to her professional relationship, Zhao Xiaolan's daily social interactions are relatively complicated. For example, those numbers that only appeared once or twice in her mobile phone communication records, especially the numbers she dialed out on her own initiative, are probably just selling health care products to potential customers. It would be too much work for some people to check one by one.Du Yingxiong and Wang Kun discussed it, and decided to check the daily fixed-line numbers first. Of course, the key point is to find the man who has a close photo with Zhao Xiaolan.

In view of this, Du Yingxiong and Wang Kun visited the unit where Zhao Xiaolan worked again and learned that the numbers she often dialed were all from her colleagues. On the day of the murder, except for a few sales calls, the rest of the calls were also calls with colleagues.Relevant colleagues all gave witnesses to show that they were not with Zhao Xiaolan that day.But when Du Yingxiong took out the photo that Ai Xiaomei downloaded from the cloud, they recognized the man standing next to Zhao Xiaolan in the photo almost at the same time.

This man is Jiang Tao, a self-employed minibus driver. The health care product company once hired his car to drive customers in several large-scale marketing activities. He and Zhao Xiaolan probably met and hooked up during the activities. together.Because Jiang Tao has a wife and children, the relationship between the two is not visible, and they can only communicate secretly in private, so outsiders don't know about this relationship.Jiang Tao is currently chartered by a travel agency in this city for a long time, and Zhao Xiaolan's colleague provided Du Yingxiong with his mobile phone number.

Ningshan Park is built on the mountain, with luxuriant flowers and plants and shaded trees, it is a natural green park.

The park is open to the public free of charge 24 hours a day. There are many pavilions, green corridors, leisure benches, fitness equipment, etc. inside. It is a very good fitness and leisure place for residents living in the surrounding communities.Therefore, there are always more people in the park in the morning and evening, and most of the rest of the time are elderly people who pass the time.

I don't know when, some women with heavy makeup and revealing clothes began to appear in the park.Almost all of them speak foreign accents, and most of them are from 50 to [-] years old to middle-aged in appearance. They target the elderly who are resting or walking in the park, and provide cheap obscene and pornographic services. Wang Caihua is one of them. .

Wang Caihua used to work in a food factory in this city for many years. Later, due to poor management, the factory closed down. Wang Caihua was encouraged by some sisters to engage in prostitution.Apart from contacting prostitutes, Wang Caihua's daily social interactions are simple, limited to a few fellow villagers who also prostitute in the park, and they also shared a small bungalow near the park.According to reports from several of her fellow villagers: Wang Caihua has a stubborn temper and is a bit stubborn in doing things.On several occasions, she also had conflicts with customers due to the issue of whoring money.

Wang Caihua was killed in a men's public toilet on a hillside in the west area of ​​Ningshan Park.The public toilets are small and rudimentary, with three squatting spaces separated by two low walls, and the sanitation environment is also extremely poor.Toilet paper was thrown everywhere, and the ground was wet. I don't know if it was water or urine. Maybe someone threw some bricks on the ground to prevent shoes from getting on the ground.Outside the public toilet, there are more than ten stone steps down the hillside, which is a semi-circular fork road, and the main road of the park is four or fifty meters away to the east or west, so this area is considered a hidden boundary, which is quite suitable Do something shady.

Because of the death, and the fact that prostitutes are becoming more and more confident, soliciting and selling in public, and they are not shy about covering up sex transactions, the social impact is extremely bad. Ningshan Park has carried out centralized rectification to crack down on illegal activities such as prostitution and whoring.So far, the effect is obvious, and the situation of prostitution and whoring in the park has basically been eliminated.

Yao Jian took Han Yin and walked around the scene of the crime and its surroundings a few times, and at the same time gave a detailed introduction to the background information of the case.Han Yin just watched and listened along the way, and didn't say much, Yao Jian was even more confused.

Finally got out of the park and got into the car. Yao Jian held the car key, but didn't start the car. He hesitated for a while, and couldn't help but said in a tentative tone: "Okay, I've watched both scenes, it's time to follow Let me talk about your intentions, you don't think that these two cases are because of the low status of the victims, no one cares, so we didn't try our best to investigate?"

"No, you misunderstood, absolutely not that meaning!" Han Yin waved his hands again and again, explaining, "I know these two cases are not easy to solve, it is difficult for a homeless man to have intersecting interests with others, and it is possible for a prostitute to have a relationship with anyone When entanglements occur, the motive of committing the crime is a big question. If technological means are no longer effective, it will be even more difficult to choose the direction of investigation and the scope of investigation.”

"Everything you said is on the point. As for the tramp, why would anyone kill him? What's the point?" Han Yin spoke in a way that was both expert and comfortable, and Yao Jian seemed to hold back his breath. Feeling aggrieved, I finally found someone who understood, and said in one breath, "There is also the park case, every possible motive for committing the crime, such as jealousy, business grabbing, land grabbing, money disputes, etc., has been investigated from all directions, and the client is also involved. I caught more than a dozen, but they were all dead ends."

"Have you ever thought that the clues are already there, but you didn't find them?" Han Yin collected his thoughts and continued, "Judging from the victim's background information, he is not only a homeless Gui's homeless man is still an alcoholic, and he likes to swear when he is drunk. Judging from the behavioral evidence, the murderer's weapon was taken from the victim, and he was injured in the process, and DNA evidence was also left behind. The obvious lack of preparation for the action and result of hurting people shows that this is a stress crime. Then combining these two aspects, we may be able to conclude a motive for committing the crime..."

"You mean, the victim was drunk and swearing in the street that night, which annoyed the passers-by, but the passers-by smashed him to death with his wine bottle?" Before Han Yin finished speaking, Yao Jian rushed in and said, "If this motive Established, under the bridge there are people walking, riding bicycles, riding electric cars and motorcycles, and the scope of the same is not small.”

"Let's talk about the case of the park. The crime happened between 5:6 p.m. A stressful crime." Han Yin did not answer Yao Jian's question, but continued following his own train of thought.

"I understand." Yao Jian was stunned for a while, staring at Han Yin with doubts and said, "The reason why you singled out these two accumulated cases is because you think they may be committed by the same murderer, not only that, You still think they are also related to the Red Star Lane murder, is that right?"

Han Yin smiled slightly, which was the default.Of course, he also knew that it would be difficult to convince Yao Jian based on the above few words, so he told Yao Jian in detail about the similar characteristics of the three cases summed up by combining the three elements of the serial case last night... …

After Yao Jian listened silently, he remained speechless for a while, as if he was digesting Han Yin's words.In the end, he still said with a blank face: "Forgive me, I've thought about it, and your wild theory makes me feel a little too taken for granted, and there is no serious evidence for it. I don't agree with it. To be honest, the case bureau in Hongxing Lane has already approved our conclusions. If it wasn't for Wang Kun, who jumped up and down all day, making me feel a little bit confused, the case would have been handed over long ago. I Giving you time to study this one case is under a lot of pressure, and you have solved two cases for me this time, I really..." Yao Jian didn't finish speaking, he lowered his head and thought for a while, then raised his head and sighed. He said angrily, "Hey, let's be honest, from the moment Comrade Du appeared, I knew he was here to reverse the case for Chang An. I thought he might have learned about the case and the process of handling the case, and did his duty as a buddy." , I couldn’t find anything to say, so I withdrew, and I just pushed the boat to stop Wang Kun’s mouth. I didn’t expect him to move you here again. I searched your information on the Internet, and you have a lot of background. You must make some noise before you can stop. I also know that I can’t offend you, so how about it, if you really want to investigate the three cases together, I have no objection, and I can even provide some assistance. But I have two Conditions: 2015. Chang An spent the whole year of [-] sailing in the open sea. If you use the logic of your serial killers to commit crimes, then Chang An does not meet the conditions for committing crimes. But what I want to say is that until you find conclusive evidence, Chang An cannot Second, the investigation will not go through official procedures for the time being, and the lower the profile, the better. If it really makes a lot of noise and the city is full of storms, and the case cannot be solved in the end, then the common people and public opinion will not scold us, let alone me, even the director. have to be implicated."

"Interesting enough, deal." Seeing that Yao Jianyue's words became more and more tragic, Han Yin deliberately adjusted the atmosphere with a slightly ruffled tone.

"Besides, don't serial killers kill people premeditatedly? Doesn't it contradict your emphasis on irritability?" Yao Jian frowned again.

"There is no contradiction, serial killers also have a process from beginning to development." Han Yin patted Yao Jian's shoulder, paused, and said, as if suddenly remembering something, "By the way, I want to find some old newspapers from that year... ..."

At the same time that Han Yin and Yao Jian reached an agreement, Jiang Tao was brought into the interrogation room of the criminal police team.

At first, Jiang Tao was reluctant when he received the summons by phone. He kept claiming that he didn't know Zhao Xiaolan well, and found reasons to say that he was on a tour and the tourists were all in the car and couldn't get away.Du Yingxiong didn't force him, he asked him to do his work first, and then went home to talk.Hearing this, Jiang Tao reacted immediately, and obediently sent himself to the criminal police team.

"Brother policeman, please, I'll ask you whatever you want, but don't involve my family in this matter, okay?" Jiang Tao begged hurriedly as soon as his butt hit the chair.

"Hmph, are you admitting that you and Zhao Xiaolan are lovers?" Du Yingxiong sneered.

"I did cheat, but her death has nothing to do with me." Jiang Tao shook his head vigorously and said, "I stayed in the central hospital all night. If you don't believe me, you can adjust the surveillance."

"Okay, you are pretty proficient in our business, so hurry up and tell me everything you need to say. When was the last time you got in touch with Zhao Xiaolan?" Wang Kun said in a stern tone.

"It's the day she was killed." Jiang Tao said slowly while sorting out his memory, "It was around 3 o'clock in the afternoon that day, I went to the airport to send off the group, and then sent a WeChat message to Xiaolan asking where she was, and she wrote back I said that I was about to come out of work, and I proposed to go to Golden Lily to take a sauna, and then go to the barbecue restaurant next to Golden Lily for dinner at night. But halfway there, I received a call from the travel agency, asking me to go back to the airport and wait. Said there was a group to be picked up temporarily. I sent Xiaolan another WeChat message, saying that it would arrive later. Xiaolan said it was fine, and she wandered around Jinbaihe first. Then the plane was delayed, and it was already 7 o'clock when I received the group and sent it to the hotel Too much. Before about 6:[-], Xiaolan sent me a WeChat message saying that she was hungry, that we should eat the meal first and then go to the sauna, and that she would go to the barbecue restaurant to order food and drinks for me. But who knows When I was rushing there from the hotel, something went wrong again. My wife called and said that my mother-in-law suddenly fainted and asked me to go to the hospital. I could only send a WeChat message to Xiaolan to explain that I couldn’t go, Xiaolan Bai and so on One afternoon, I was very angry and said a lot of sarcastic remarks. I was anxious and ignored her. When I arrived at the hospital, I learned that my mother-in-law had a cerebral hemorrhage and was undergoing surgery. After that, I took care of my mother-in-law in the hospital. After about a week, One day I happened to meet a girl from Xiaolan’s company in the hospital, and I found out that Xiaolan had been killed. I was afraid of being implicated, so I deleted her WeChat.”

"The Golden Lily you are talking about, are you promoting the Golden Lily leisure and bathing center by the road?" Wang Kun asked.

"Yes, yes, that's the one, I have the discount card there..." Jiang Tao replied.

Section [-] Spiritual Appeal
Late at night, the conference room was still brightly lit.

Han Yin, Du Yingxiong, Wang Kun, including the invited Yao Jian, sat around the conference table to conduct a summary analysis and discussion of the three cases.

Han Yin said: "According to the current information, the possibility of serial crimes is very high. Among them, the Qianjinqiao case should be the murderer's first crime. On the night of the crime, when the murderer passed under the bridge, he caught up with the victim who was drinking and cursing in the street. Stimulated by his foul language, he carried out violent killings. I have learned that the case was widely reported by the local media. I found several newspapers at that time in the reference room. As I expected, the news pictures are all The appearance of the corpse lying prone in the garbage bin. I believe that it is this kind of picture that gave the murderer a great sense of satisfaction, so that he established the crime mark action-throwing the victim in a dirty and filthy place, and putting it on the ground The prone posture of the victim implies contempt and belittlement of the victim’s personality.”

"The Ningshan Park case is the second time the murderer committed the crime. Everyone at the scene of the crime knows that it was in the men's public toilet near a fork in the park. During the day, I communicated with Team Yao. From the analysis of the time point, the murderer committed the crime It doesn't seem premeditated, it should be a homicide case caused by sudden and stimulating factors like the Qianjinqiao case. But this time, the murderer showed a certain maturity and initiative. Why do you say that? According to Team Yao, Back then, the prostitutes were quite unscrupulous and domineering when they solicited customers in the park. They didn't care about their image and shame. It should not be on the semi-circular, sparsely populated fork road where the east and west ends intersect with the main road in the park, but a choice made by the murderer after observing the surrounding environment after he became murderous. Including going to the men's public toilet It must be the murderer's proposal to conduct sex transactions in the house, because people have the instinct to seek advantages and avoid disadvantages, and their emotions will be more calm and stable in places they are familiar with, so if it is the proposal of a prostitute, she will definitely bring the murderer into the women's bathroom .”

"The Red Star Lane murder case is the murderer's third crime. Based on comprehensive case analysis, it is a stalking crime. The murderer and the victim had an unpleasant contact at a certain time and place that day, which aroused the murderer's intention to kill and followed the victim." Go to Red Star Lane and find an opportunity to complete the crime."

"Mr. Han, I hear what you mean. These three cases were all caused by quarrels, or the victim's provocation, but is it true that someone will kill consecutively because of being scolded by others?" Wang Kun wanted to overturn Chang An's case in the shortest possible time, but he really didn't want to cause trouble, so he interjected a little impatiently.

"Of course it's not that simple. You've been scolded too much, so you can't kill again and again, right? The question is what did these three people say, which made the murderer feel pain in his heart." Du Yingxiong understood Wang Kun's emotions and smiled wryly. explain.

"By the way, didn't the owner of the ramen restaurant say that the junk picker often swears insulting women like sluts, bitches, and broken shoes? Is the murderer angered by this?" Hearing what Du Yingxiong said, Yao Jian couldn't bear it. Stop interrupting.

"If you are so annoyed, the murderer should be a woman." Wang Kun seemed to have suddenly realized, "Is this really possible? The case in the park may be a woman who was abandoned by her husband while strolling in the park. Wang Caihua, who was looking for business, became angry for a while and became murderous; and Zhao Xiaolan, who was selling health care products, might have fooled the murderer before, and the murderer came back and strangled her to death when he ran into her that day. How, this Is it reliable?"

"If it's a real woman, she must be strong and strong. These cases are done so neatly and neatly." Du Yingxiong joked with a smile, and then said seriously, "In terms of women's biological instincts and personalities , most crimes are fully premeditated, and the way of committing the crime is mostly intelligent, and it will not be as simple and rude as this case. What's more, in the Ningshan Park case, if the murderer is a woman, she will not go to the men's toilet that she is not familiar with crime."

"Actually, I thought about it this afternoon. If it's as you said, then you might as well consider such a direction." Yao Jian took a deep breath and said solemnly, "The victims in this case are all foreigners, and what they did was not serious. It can even be said that work brings negative energy to our city. Do you think the murderer is a local with a particularly serious xenophobic feeling? Maybe because of certain encounters, the xenophobic feeling has risen to paranoia and perversion, and then Start the so-called removal of outsiders?"

"Yes, this is indeed an idea worth exploring." Han Yin finally answered, "Then I have to trouble you, say hello to the network monitoring department, and ask them to help us track down the users with local IP addresses on social networks on major networks. Excessive remarks about exclusion of outsiders on platforms and forums, and see if there are any people in such groups who meet the conditions for committing crimes."

"No problem. The captain of the network monitoring team is my buddy. I will supervise it myself. I will make them take this matter seriously." Yao Jian assured, patted his chest.

"In addition, there is another direction of investigation," Han Yin continued, "As I just said, the victim Zhao Xiaolan must have had some kind of intersection with the murderer on the day she was killed. The hero and Wang Kun will then thoroughly investigate Zhao Xiaolan's whereabouts that day. clear."

"I would like to add something about the geography of the crime. After recording Jiang Tao's statement today, I checked the map. The Jinbaihe and the barbecue restaurant on the promotion road where Zhao Xiaolan stayed on the day of her murder were actually about 1.5 meters away in a straight line to the southeast of the Qianjin Bridge. [-] kilometers away. The geographical location of the two involved locations is so close. On the one hand, I think it can support Mr. Han’s meaning. It is very likely that Zhao Xiaolan came into contact with the murderer while eating at a barbecue restaurant; The road is the center point, covering a range of two to three kilometers around the Qianjin Bridge, which is probably the area where the murderer lives or has frequent daily activities. Also based on Mr. Han’s characterization of the case, the surrounding area of ​​Ningshan Park may also be the area where the murderer lived or had daily activities area. Therefore, if a person’s daily activity trajectory can connect these two areas, it means that he is suspected of committing a crime.” Du Yingxiong finally said.

On the day of the incident, Zhao Xiaolan received a message from Jiang Tao to leave the company at 3:3 p.m., and then at about 6:[-], Jiang Tao called again, saying that she had something to do and would not be able to meet until later. At that time, Zhao Xiaolan had already arrived at Jinbaihe. Tell Jiang Tao that she walked around first, and then at around [-]:[-] in the evening, she walked into a barbecue restaurant next to Jin Lily.

Du Yingxiong and Wang Kun followed Zhao Xiaolan's footsteps to the barbecue shop.The boss was a woman, and she immediately recognized Du Yingxiong as a regular customer in the photo in his hand.

"This woman has been here several times," said the female boss.

"When was the last time you saw her?" Du Yingxiong asked.

"It's been a long time. I can't remember the exact day. Anyway, it was a rainy night." The female boss smiled and added, "I was very impressed that day, not only because of the rain, but mainly because of her I ordered something for two people in advance, and then it seemed that my friend couldn't come due to something, she was a little depressed, and then she ate all the things she ordered by herself, and drank two bottles of beer."

"Has she been alone all this time? Has she had contact with anyone or had any troubles during this period?" Wang Kun asked.

"It was the weekend, and the store was full of customers. Later, a man came alone, so I asked him to share a table with this woman. I didn't pay much attention to whether they communicated with each other." The boss says.

"Which of them left first?" Wang Kun continued to ask.

"Man, he simply ate a few skewers and two scones without drinking any alcohol. He finished eating in a short while and poured a thermos of boiling water before he left. He must be a taxi driver." The female boss said.

"How old is he, do you still have an impression of his appearance?" Du Yingxiong asked.

"I'm 27, [-] or early [-]s. It's hard to say, but I can remember her appearance." The female boss said.

"Then could you please go to the team and make a 'portrait'?" Du Yingxiong said.

"No problem, but I guess I have to go in the afternoon. I have something to do later." The female boss said.

"That's fine, just come and find me." Wang Kun took out a business card and handed it to the female boss.

"When did this woman leave?" Du Yingxiong shook the photo on his hand and asked.

"It was around 8 o'clock, and the rain seemed to have just started, so it wasn't too heavy." The female boss recalled a little.

……

After leaving the barbecue restaurant, the two of them combined it up: it took about half an hour to take a taxi from the location of the barbecue restaurant to Red Star Lane. If you consider the factor of slow speed in rainy days, it would only take about forty minutes at most.According to this, Zhao Xiaolan left the barbecue restaurant at 8 o'clock, and she should be home around 9 o'clock, and the time of the incident was 9:[-], so it is estimated that she should still take the bus.

There is a bus stop on the street not far from the barbecue shop. Du Yingxiong and Wang Kun walked over and found that the No. 40 bus passed through Hongxing Lane and had a stop there in a long list of bus route signs.Just as a No. 40 bus came into the station, the two exchanged glances and jumped on the bus without saying a word.

In general, the outbreak of the case comes from anger, and for serial killers, anger has not only inducements, but also roots.Only by figuring out the incentives and looking for the root cause, that is, the so-called initial stimulus of the crime, can we make a more accurate profile.So early the next morning, Han Yin came to Qianjin Bridge again, and he wanted to start looking for inspiration from here...

On the night of the incident, the homeless man was drunk again.Drunken people basically have two states: one is sleepy; the other is extremely excited.Tramps clearly fall into the latter category.Of course, his drinking must also be obsessed with the feeling of excitement, because only at that moment, he can abandon his cowardice and resignation, he can unscrupulously vent the anger in his heart, and even attack and abuse those who think they are superior.Although he himself is a person who has failed extremely in life and tries to escape reality by humiliating himself, Han Yin seems to be able to spy on this point from the few words of the homeless man swearing on the street provided by the owner of the ramen restaurant.But he has been hurt, so he knows how to hurt people, and he can use his mistakes to punish others.

Standing under the bridge where the homeless once lived, Han Yin frowned slightly, squinted his eyes, pondered over the details of the case, and began to construct and interpret the scene of the confrontation between the victim and the murderer in his mind:

The homeless man was drunk and blindfolded, holding a wine bottle in his hand, throwing up his neck from time to time to take a sip, and then cursing the sky, the ground, and the air as usual, with his voice fluctuating high and low.

The murderer happened to pass by, and was startled by the loud shouting and cursing, so he glanced inadvertently.

Homeless man: "What are you looking at? What's there to look at?"

The murderer froze for a moment, gave the tramp a blank look, and didn't want to see him as well, turned around and continued walking (a normal person's reaction).

The homeless man felt even more belittled, and began to attack violently: "You are so unlucky, you are wandering outside in the middle of the night, you were kicked out by your wife, right?"

The murderer will have two reactions: [-]. swallow his anger, speed up his pace, and leave the place of right and wrong as soon as possible; [-]. be aroused and scold the murderer.

On the homeless man's side, no matter which of the above situations, he will mobilize his stronger attack: "You are such a wimpy ghost, you will have to wear a cuckold sooner or later, I can't prevent your daughter-in-law from getting broken shoes at home now, hurry up!" Go back and have a look..."

The murderer became more and more angry, and stared at him with all his might: "Smelly beggar, I'm giving you face, right?"

Homeless man: "Little boy, try to stare at me again, believe it or not, I'll kill you." While threatening, he stood up staggeringly, holding the wine bottle in his hand, and walked towards the murderer...

The murderer shrank back, seeing the homeless man approaching step by step, he was furious for a moment, and the evil grew to his guts. He grabbed the wine bottle and threw it at the homeless man's head with all his strength...

The scene in Han Yin's mind changed to Ningshan Park.

The prostitutes were soliciting customers along the street, and when they met the murderer, they made poses and tried their best to tease them.

The murderer ignored him and kept walking.

The prostitutes kept pestering her.

The murderer became angry, with a bored look on his face, he shook off the prostitute's arm: "Don't bother me, get out."

The prostitutes were disliked and couldn't get off the stage, and they were shameless and unscrupulous, so they scolded loudly: "You are so poor, you can't afford it for tens of dollars, and you still dislike me and want to play, but my mother doesn't wait for you!"

Just as the murderer was about to speed up his pace, he stopped abruptly, concentrated for a moment, turned around, and changed into a flattering smile: "Don't shout, don't shout, can I play? Then you have to find a place with few people, by the way, the front door There's a public toilet next to the fork, let's go there..."

Han Yin changed the scene again and came to Red Star Lane.

This time, the picture in my mind was not so clear.It was mentioned at the meeting last night that although the case took place in Hongxing Lane, it is difficult to judge when and where the murderer and the victim met, and the details are even more difficult to guess.Then, according to the interpretation of the previous two cases, the direction of the murderer's verbal attack may still revolve around some jokes about his real situation...

In general, the murderer will be annoyed by the above words, indicating that he may indeed have such weaknesses and dilemmas in his life.However, verbal stimulation is only one aspect. Han Yin did not forget that the people who said those words were all migrant workers, and they were at the bottom of society, engaged in disgraceful occupations such as picking up junk, prostitution, and selling counterfeit medicines.Such a similar identity and background cannot be just a coincidence. Perhaps what really annoys the murderer is the fusion of the victim's identity and words.In other words, the murderer couldn't bear the insults from people at the bottom of life.

So he killed them, and even thought that was not enough, he dumped them like garbage, he wanted to show the depravity of their personalities, he let their faces rush to the ground, deprived them of the right to face the world, he felt that they were not Unworthy to meet his own gaze, he wants people to know how contemptuous and dismissive he is of them...

cut!When Han Yin understood the emotions expressed by the criminal marks, the word "cutting" suddenly appeared in his mind. Could this be the fundamental appeal of the murderer?He wants to cut the link between himself and the identity of the victim?So in other words, in the subconscious of the murderer, he and the victim belong to the same type of people?

The more Han Yin's thoughts unfolded, the more he felt that he had "seen" such a murderer: he was a person with an extreme sense of inferiority in his heart; he was also an extremely self-centered person.

He was born in a poor or single-parent family. In the world of material and money, he is the object of ridicule and contempt, or his appearance or even body has certain defects, thus forming a serious inferiority complex.But he is well-behaved, intelligent, and excellent in his studies. He is doted on by his family, envied by his neighbors, and valued by his teachers, so he develops extreme selfishness and self-esteem psychologically.Therefore, from childhood to adolescence, then to adulthood and now, with the changes of the real situation, he was constantly under the impact of the two contradictions of inferiority complex and self-esteem in his heart, which gradually evolved into paranoid personality.

High IQ and low EQ are his obvious behavioral characteristics in real life.In interpersonal communication, he is always overly self-respecting and sensitive, deliberately posing as a strong man to cover up his inner humbleness, but in essence, he exposes his personality flaws, making people feel colorful and neurotic, but he is despised and kept away.

Spiritual loneliness, personality paranoia, and unbearable living conditions tortured his body and mind, and often made him feel manic and angry. However, he was constrained by morality and law, so he could only choose to suppress himself. A psychological defense mechanism identified by the strong.To put it bluntly, he thinks that no matter how disrespectful words and deeds of people above him, he will choose to endure and endure, and once his psychological world is on the verge of collapse, he will choose to punish the weaker groups to seek redemption.

Just like the night he committed the crime for the first time, maybe he just suffered a violent mental attack, cruising on the street like a lonely ghost, trying to lick his wound silently, but unexpectedly he was abused and provoked by the tramp under the bridge, That also became the last straw that broke the camel's back. He finally couldn't bear it anymore, so he could only destroy it.

Han Yin took out his mobile phone, dialed Yao Jian's number, and said, "Captain Yao, let's release the Internet surveillance line. The murderer is not a local, so there is no so-called xenophobic killing!"

Section VII Profile Report
"Humble"!
Han Yin wrote two large characters on the whiteboard with a black water-based pen, turned around, glanced over the faces of the crowd firmly, and said slowly: "The murderer is killing his humble and pitiful! Those victims are his The last line of defense to preserve his dignity can also be said to be a fig leaf for his self-psychological counseling. If this line of defense is broken and the cloth is gone, it means that in the long river of life, he has become a completely loser."

"The murderer is a male. Like the victim, he comes from another city, but he has lived in this city for many years and may have moved into the local household registration. Relatively speaking, the frequency of crimes is not high, three in three years, and the cooling period is longer, indicating that the murderer has A certain degree of restraint reflects a good education level and relatively mature life experience. He is roughly between 25 and 40 years old and has no criminal record. The murderer has a withdrawn personality and usually makes people feel that he has more edges and corners and loves to care about everything. And his posture is manic. Of course, this is just a protective shell he built for himself. In essence, the more he rebounds, the more inferior and vulnerable he becomes. In short, it is difficult for him to communicate with others with a healthy attitude. After a long time, the surrounding People naturally choose to stay at a respectful distance. So this person has no friends, except for what he must face, such as classmates, colleagues, and family members, he lives more in his own spiritual world."

"The murderer went from being depressed to being angry, and then seeking redemption, which is actually a process of extreme despair in life. This despair even forced him to use those homeless people, prostitutes, and people who sell fake drugs who are struggling at the bottom of society as references. It is possible to imagine how serious the frustration in his heart is, and it must be all-round. But it should be noted that the formation of this kind of psychology is first of all his deep-rooted sense of inferiority. The second is the psychological gap caused by his paranoid personality. That is to say, in reality, his status may not be as humble and low as he thinks, so I think the murderer should have a share or once had a share. It is a normal and stable job, and judging from the orderliness and logic shown in the whole crime, he may be engaged in some intellectual work, but the position will not be too high."

"In addition, for most serial killers, their first target is mostly opportunistic, without careful planning and selection, which can best reflect their source of stimulation. According to the background information, the homeless man was most likely stimulated by the sudden changes in his family and marriage, and then became depressed and split, resulting in confusion and wandering around. Then how could the words and deeds of such a person suddenly make the murderer so angry that he could not help himself? Suppressed? I think the most likely is that the homeless man transferred his experience to the murderer and made a verbal attack on him; or the homeless man talked to himself after being drunk, which misunderstood the murderer. What came out was some emotional information about the murderer—he is a man who has a girlfriend or is married, but in their communication and getting along, the woman always occupies an absolute dominant position, which makes the murderer feel depressed."

"Also, the murderer always chooses the murder weapon at random, which shows that he is still very confident in his ability to kill people. It shows that his stature and strength are at least above average; it also shows that he lacks assertiveness in his personality and hesitates to deal with things. As we often say, it’s just too tedious, and it’s hard to make up your mind if you don’t push it to the last moment.”

"Finally, let's talk about the issue of criminal geography: from the relevant profiles above, it can be concluded that the murderer's status is quite passive no matter in the work unit or in the family, so he is not a person who has the ability to take the initiative to stay out at night, but The time of his first crime was close to midnight. I think it was probably because of a dispute at home, he went out in anger or was kicked out of the house. Combined with the hero's analysis of crime geography last night, it can be basically determined that the murderer should live in Qianjinqiao or In the neighborhood near Facilitation Road."

After Han Yin finished the profile, Du Yingxiong continued: "On the day Zhao Xiaolan was killed, there was no abnormal situation in the company. I left the company at about 3 o'clock to go to Jiang Tao's appointment. Around 3:[-], Jiang Tao called Zhao Xiaolan to postpone the meeting time. For two or three hours after that, Zhao Xiaolan was in a state of news vacuum. Judging from the environment around Jin Baihe, there are quite a lot of places for her to spend time, including Internet cafes, coffee shops, beauty shops, nail salons, clothing stores, supermarkets, etc. Wang Kun and I walked to a few stores, but because the past is too long, no one remembers whether Zhao Xiaolan has been there."

"Of course, this is not the point. Wang Kun and I think that the time when Zhao Xiaolan and the murderer are most likely to meet is when they are eating at a barbecue restaurant and on the way back to Red Star Lane. Let's talk about the latter first. In terms of time, Zhao Xiaolan should I chose to take the bus home, and there is a bus stop that can reach Hongxing Lane not far from the barbecue restaurant. Wang Kun and I tried to take a ride, and found that the stop sign of this bus was set up in Hongxing Lane. The alley where Zhao Xiaolan was murdered is also very close. On the way from the barbecue shop to Red Star Alley, if Zhao Xiaolan encounters the murderer, it is most likely on the bus. For this reason, Wang Kun and I made a trip to the bus company and found the The bus driver who passed by the barbecue restaurant bus stop at the corresponding time was also because the time had passed so long that the driver could no longer remember the situation of the passengers that night, and what is even more regrettable is that the surveillance video on the bus was also overwritten."

"Let's go back and talk about the barbecue restaurant. According to the boss, Jiang Tao broke the appointment that night, and Zhao Xiaolan ate all the things she ordered by herself. It is worth noting that during this period, a man suspected of being a taxi driver competed with her at the table. This is so far the only man we can confirm had special contact with Zhao Xiaolan on the day of the incident, so Wang Kun and I feel that this taxi driver is very suspicious."

Du Yingxiong waved his hand and asked Wang Kun to distribute the portrait photos to Han Yin and Yao Jian, and then said: "This is a puzzle portrait made by the owner of the barbecue shop in the team. In fact, after comprehensive consideration, if the murderer is a taxi driver, then It was too easy for him to string together several crime scenes."

After Han Yin and Du Yingxiong made their respective statements, the next step is to discuss how to troubleshoot.The direction of the taxi driver is relatively clear. Du Yingxiong and Wang Kun can visit major taxi companies in the city to find the suspect in the puzzle portrait, but the investigation based on the scope of the profile is relatively more complicated.

In the area of ​​Qianjin Bridge and Facilitate Road, there are about a dozen new and old residential communities in the surrounding area, with nearly [-] residents. Given the current situation, it is impossible to go deep into the community for investigation. In addition, it is easy to startle the enemy. We can only start with the household registration and temporary population. start.In order to allow the grass-roots police handling the case to understand the background characteristics of the murderer more intuitively, Hanyin will simplify the profiling report accordingly and then distribute it to the street police station.At the same time, he himself will go to the grassroots level and conduct screening together with the household registration police and the area police.

The next day, Han Yin stayed at the police station all morning, and the household registration has not screened out the suspects yet, so he walked out of the police station alone to get some air while his colleagues were having dinner.

The sunshine in the autumn afternoon made people lazy, and Han Yin walked down the street with a gloomy expression, without direction or goal, with an inexplicable sense of loss in his heart, as if he had missed something important.He didn't know how long he had been walking, but when he suddenly looked up, he saw the signboard of Jinbaihe Leisure Bathing Center.In an instant, he suddenly realized that he should have visited this place in person long ago.

After stopping for a moment in front of Jinbaihe Gate, Han Yin turned and walked into the nearby barbecue restaurant that was frequently mentioned in the case.The store is not big, only five or six tables can be accommodated. The bar is facing the door, and there is a small staircase next to it. It seems that there is a second floor.The business in the store was mediocre, there were only two tables of guests, and Han Yin chose a table by the door to sit down.A young woman who looked like a boss came over, put down the menu in her hand, and politely asked Han Yin what he wanted to eat. Han Yin hesitated, and said that he would help me order a bowl of egg noodles.Soon, the female boss personally delivered the ready-made noodles and two free side dishes. She probably thought that Han Yin had an extraordinary bearing and was not like an ordinary person, so she seemed extraordinarily thoughtful.

The smell of noodles and eggs wafted through his nostrils, and Han Yin realized that his stomach was already full of hunger. These days, he was so focused on the case that he had no appetite for food. He couldn't remember when he had the last meal.But he only took a few bites, then stopped his chopsticks, and stared at the empty chair opposite with breathless eyes, as if someone was sitting opposite.

I'm a taxi driver, and I'm sitting across from Zhao Xiaolan. I've never met her before. I just want to eat something to fill my stomach, and she's mad at her because her lover cheated on her. What will we talk about?Han Yin was thinking secretly in his heart, and a series of questions suddenly appeared in his head: In such an atmosphere, would you tell me that you are a health care product seller?I killed people not only because I was provoked by your words and deeds, but more importantly because I am not ashamed of your humble identity and status.If you didn't tell me this, why would I want to kill you?Say it, Zhao Xiaolan...

Han Yin seemed to have received some kind of inspiration. He gently put down the chopsticks in his hand, took out 20 yuan from his trouser pocket and put it on the table, then stood up from the chair, turned around and walked out the door.

The female boss took a few steps, glanced at the money on the table, and called softly: "Sir, wait a minute, I'll ask you for money."

Han Yin stopped his pace, turned around and said, "No need, by the way, is there a place where the elderly are concentrated near here?"

"Yes, yes, you go out of my door and go south. There is Haida Square more than 200 meters away. There are many old men and women dancing square dances from morning to night." The female boss responded by pointing her finger in the direction. road.

"Okay, thank you." Han Yin turned and stepped out of the store.

"Then you go slowly, come often!" The female boss followed closely and said politely.

Not far from the barbecue restaurant, Han Yin took out his mobile phone and dialed Du Yingxiong, and said softly, "Have you found the person in the portrait?"

"I found it, I was just about to call you." Du Yingxiong said on the other end of the phone, "It is indeed a taxi driver. He also has the impression that he went to a barbecue restaurant for dinner, but then it rained and there was nothing to do, so he told The other drivers went to play cards, and there is a certificate, so do we need to do a DNA comparison?”

"No need, come back. We misplaced the focus earlier. The time period that should really be paid attention to is the few hours before Zhao Xiaolan walked into the barbecue restaurant." Worried about Du Yingxiong's psychological burden, Han Yin hurriedly comforted, "The responsibility is mainly In my case, I did not lead well."

Indeed, Han Yin really felt that his previous thinking was too procedural.He is used to thinking from the perspective of the murderer, but he ignores that the collision between the murderer and the victim in this case is random, and it can even be said to be dominated by the victim. Therefore, he should use the thinking mode of the victim Zhao Xiaolan to speculate on her relationship with Where the murderers intersect.

Who is Zhao Xiaolan?She is a health product salesman who specializes in entrapping the elderly, so where will she go in the two or three hours she is suddenly free?what will doIsn't it to find potential customers among those old people?The answer is yes, so Han Yin now wants to follow Zhao Xiaolan's footsteps and go among those old people.

Following the guidance of the owner of the barbecue shop, after walking for five or six minutes, Han Yin saw a large commercial store with the gate facing a small leisure plaza.It may not be time yet, there are not many people in the square, only a few groups of old people sitting on the stone steps chatting in twos and threes.Of course, Han Yin knew that the old man he was going to face, male or female, was not within the scope of the profile, but the murderer was very likely to be related to them in some way.

Han Yin went to a few chatting old aunts, identified himself as a policeman, held up the mobile phone among them, and asked if he had seen the person displayed on the screen of the mobile phone. The old aunts have a heart of gossip, and they don’t use Han Yin at all. If you beg too much, you will actively focus your eyes on the screen of the mobile phone, and some old aunts will take the initiative to reach out and take a good look at the mobile phone.

After asking several groups of people, an aunt finally recognized her. She looked excited and said happily, "I seem to have a little impression. Is this girl selling health care products?"

"Yes, you have seen her?" Han Yin was also happy in his heart, and said in a raised voice, "Do you remember the specific date?"

"I can't remember, it's been a long time, probably when it was hot." Auntie pursed her lips and explained to the old friends around her, "We all broke up that day, and you all went home to cook , I sat with Mrs. Li for a while, and then this little girl came out of nowhere and chatted with us. Anyway, she just wanted to sell us health care products. I didn’t pay much attention to her, Mr. Mrs. Li was tempted by what she said, and later took her home."

"Then is Aunt Li here now?" Han Yin asked.

"I haven't been here for a while. It is said that I have moved." The aunt shook her head and said.

"Ask Lao Huang about Mrs. Li, they live in the opposite door, and Lao Huang is a little bit interested in her." Another aunt reminded with an ambiguous expression, and then rushed to a thanked man in the square who was practicing dance steps alone. The uncle beckoned, "Old Huang, Lao Huang, come quickly, come quickly, I need you if I need something!"

"What are you doing, what's the good thing?" The uncle known as the old yellow head, humming to the rhythm of the music, twisted his body and asked.

"Hello, I'm from the Public Security Bureau. I want to know something about Aunt Li." Han Yin took the initiative to answer the question.

Hearing the three words "Public Security Bureau", the old Huangtou froze immediately, hurriedly held Han Yin's hand, and said in a concerned tone, "What's wrong with Lao Li?"

"Oh, that..." Han Yin looked at the concerned eyes of the aunts around him, and felt that he couldn't ask any more questions, so he looked around again and said to the old Huangtou, "Uncle Huang, let me treat you to tea." ? Let's talk slowly."

"Okay, okay, okay, let's go, let's go." The old Huangtou might also be eager to know the news of the so-called old Mrs. Li, so he took the lead and left after talking.

"How did you leave so well?" "Tell us about it, what's wrong with old Mrs. Li?" "You young man is really not particular, and we will ignore us when we are done using it."

Seeing that Han Yin and Lao Huangtou left them and left, the old aunts yelled indignantly.

The old Huangtou was very sensible, seeing that he was out of the eyes of several old ladies, he proposed to sit at his house, saying that it would be convenient for him to live alone, and of course Han Yin wished for it.

The two walked for more than ten minutes, and came to the community where the old Huangtou lived - the Shengda community, which of course was also the community where Mrs. Li lived.What made Han Yin even more excited was that, from a distance, he saw the Qianjin bridge across the road.

After entering the house, the old Huangtou was busy boiling water and making tea, and Han Yin took the opportunity to look at each room.

The house is not big, in addition to the living room, there is also a bedroom and a study.The furnishings in the study are simple, with a strong bookish atmosphere. A large mahogany bookshelf full of books occupies almost two-thirds of the space. In the remaining space, there is a writing desk with inkstones and brushes on it, and another one that seems to have just arrived. Calligraphy work not long ago.The living room is also very clean. There are many famous calligraphy and paintings hanging on the wall, but they are obviously copied works, and they seem to be made by the same person. Unsurprisingly, it should be the handwriting of the old Huangtou.

Han Yin was looking at it, and the old Huangtou came over with a tea tray, sat on the side sofa, poured tea, and said modestly: "I used to be an art teacher in middle school, and I only had this hobby all my life. I always like it when I'm retired. Write and draw, laugh at me."

"Where, you are so elegant!" Han Yin also said politely, and then turned to the topic, took out his mobile phone and called up Zhao Xiaolan's photo for him to identify, "Have you ever seen this woman with Aunt Li?"

"Who is she?" Old Huangtou asked back.

"He's a health product seller." Han Yin replied.

"I haven't seen it, but Lao Li really likes to buy some useless health care products. Her daughter and son-in-law have told her so many times that they are useless." The old Huangtou continued.

"Aunt Li lives with her daughter and son-in-law?" Han Yin asked.

"Yes, the house belongs to Lao Li, and he recruited a son-in-law." The old Huangtou smiled and continued, "But now he is the former son-in-law."

"Divorced? When did it happen?" Han Yin asked.

"It's not long, maybe a month or two." Old Huangtou said.

"Then do you know her son-in-law well?" Han Yin asked again.

"Of course I know each other well. In the beginning, it was probably the matchmaker I helped protect." The old Huangtou probably didn't have anyone to accompany him to talk, and once he opened the chatterbox, he seemed a bit unstoppable, "My house and Lao Li's house live opposite each other. We have been together for many years, and the relationship has always been good, she can tell me everything she has to say, let alone her son-in-law, I know everything about her family very well."

"Great, then tell me how you keep this matchmaker." Han Yin asked with a smile.

"It's a long story." Old Huangtou paused for a moment, collected his thoughts and said, "Mrs. Li's name is Li Yun, and her girl's name is Cheng Xiaohui. Old Li has opened restaurants for many years and saved a lot of money. His family conditions are very good. Good. Xiaohui's job is also good. She works in a bank and looks okay, but this child has a bad temper and is very domineering. Another possibility is that he is gone because he beats his father. He lacks a sense of security. He is always suspicious when he is a boyfriend. Several of them eventually broke up because of this matter. Her mother was very anxious about this matter, and asked people to protect her matchmaker everywhere. Once my younger sister came to visit my house, and she heard that my younger sister was in Yongji (Fengshan City as a county-level city, managed by the prefecture-level city of Yongji), I asked my sister to find a teacher for Xiaohui to be a teacher at the school. My sister was very considerate, but it was not enough to find a circle among the school teachers. There was no suitable one, and then I thought of a student."

"This student's name is Liu Yudong, and his hometown is in a remote mountainous area. When he was in elementary school, he broke his leg while playing and was suspended for one year. In addition, he went to school a year later than his peers, so in essence, he is older than his classmates in school. I'm only one or two years old, so I always feel that I can't play with my classmates, so I just spend my spare time in the library. After a long time, he and my sister got to know each other well, and sometimes chatted a little bit. Then He was 26 years old and was about to graduate from university. He told his sister that he didn’t want to go back to his hometown. The economy in his hometown was too backward and there were no opportunities for development. He wanted to stay in Yongji City to find a job.

"My sister took his photo and went to Lao Li first. I heard from my sister that Liu Yudong is tall and tall. Looking at the photo, he looks decent, especially because he is a serious undergraduate student with a higher education than Xiaohui. , and is two years younger than Xiaohui. As for whether he is a local, it doesn't matter. Lao Li has a relative in her natal family who is quite capable. It is not a problem for Liu Yudong to find a job in Fengshan where he can get a registered permanent residence. After discussing it with Xiaohui, she wanted to see the person before talking. After the discussion here, my sister went to Liu Yudong's work immediately. After setting the conditions of the old Li's family, Liu Yudong was tempted and agreed to meet Xiaohui. "

"Later, the two met and felt good about each other, so the marriage was settled. In 2011, when Liu Yudong graduated from university, he and Xiaohui immediately registered their marriage. Later, with the help of Lao Li's relatives , Liu Yudong was hired by a state-owned chemical company here to do procurement work. In addition, he couldn't afford a house, so he could only live in his mother-in-law's house, which is actually equivalent to Lao Li recruiting a son-in-law."

My hometown is a remote mountainous area, the family conditions are difficult, and I was older than my classmates when I was studying, so I developed an inferiority complex?Han Yin was shocked, and then asked, "Does Liu Yudong have much contact with your neighbors?"

"Don't mention it, this kid has a very cold temper. He has lived in this building for so many years and never interacted with his neighbors. He didn't say hello when he bumped into him in the corridor. He just nodded at me and passed by. It was cloudy all day long. Put on a face, as if someone owes him money." The old Huangtou waved his hands vigorously, frowned and said, "I heard from Lao Li that although his family conditions are not very good, and there are two older sisters above him, but his relatives He is the only man in Zhongzhong who is very spoiled, and he didn’t know how to do anything when he first got married, but he was forced by Lao Li and Xiao Hui to learn how to cook and do housework.”

Naturally withdrawn, selfish and self-loving, this Liu Yudong has taken another step towards "profile".Han Yin murmured secretly in his heart, and then asked: "After marriage, does Liu Yudong have no status in the family? Why did he divorce Cheng Xiaohui? Uncle Huang, I hope you can tell everything. This is very important to us. It's important!" Han Yin saw that the old Huangtou looked distressed, as if he was unwilling to talk about it because of his friendship with Li Yun, Han Yin hurriedly emphasized a word cautiously.

"Where can a son-in-law who comes to the house have a higher status than these wives? At home, he is often called around, serving the wives this and that, just like servants." The old Huangtou sighed hard. , with an indisputable expression on his face, he continued, "I also blame him for not living up to expectations. He is too dead-minded. Who do you think does the purchasing without more or less kickbacks? He is good, he has no guts to take it, and he won't let it go." Others took it, and went to the factory to report the leader and colleagues, which made the relationship between the upper and lower levels extremely tense. The department leaders annoyed him thoroughly, and then there happened to be an opportunity, and they just found a reason to kick him into the trade union propaganda It's over. That's it, do you still have the face to ask for status when you come home?"

"Then why did they get divorced?" Han Yin continued to ask.

"Well, how should I put it...Looking back now, Liu Yudong was really wronged." The old Huangtou smiled unnaturally, and said, "The initial trigger was the year before last, when Xiaohui knew each other somehow. A rich old man. I saw that old man driving Xiaohui back. He was about my age. Xiaohui always said that he was a customer. Later, for some reason, Liu Yudong saw the ambiguous SMS chat records between her and the old man. I started arguing at that time. That was the first time I saw Liu Yudong get angry since he got married, and the whole building could hear him. Of course, he is used to being an honest person, even if he gets angry, people are not afraid of him, but it irritated the girls even more , kicked Liu Yudong out of the house that night."

The long-standing forbearance and compromise, in exchange for betrayal and expulsion, the anger in Liu Yudong's heart must have burned to the extreme that night. If the quarrel was the trigger for his divorce with Cheng Xiaohui, then it was also his transformation from man to demon. At a turning point, the homeless man under the forward bridge became his first prey in search of himself.Han Yin muttered to himself for a while again, and confirmed: "Uncle Huang, do you still remember when the quarrel happened?"

"I'm sorry, I really can't remember the details, it was probably the winter of the year before last." Old Huangtou said.

"It's okay, you can continue." Han Yin smiled and said.

"Xiaohui's family didn't want to make a big deal that time, but Liu Yudong came back to admit his mistake, and the matter passed in a muddle-headed way. It wasn't until two months ago that the situation got out of hand." The old Huangtou showed a trace of embarrassment, and then said, "It's still Xiaohui. The matter with the old man. The old man sent her back in the middle of the night and made love in the car. Liu Yudong saw her from the window. After Xiaohui got home, the two of them quarreled. I went to persuade her to fight, and I caught up with Lao Li lying on the ground, and Xiaohui was supporting her. She scolded Liu Yudong, saying that he not only beat herself, but also her mother. Liu Yudong explained to me that it was Lao Li who wanted to help his girl go up and scratch her, but he slipped his waist and fell down... After a few days, Lao Li He told me that Liu Yudong and Xiaohui divorced and left the house. The children and property belonged to Xiaohui. He also said that she and Xiaohui forced Liu Yudong to divorce. At first, the boy refused to agree, but later Lao Li said that he would go to the police if he refused. The bureau accused him of domestic violence, but the kid immediately admitted it."

If Cheng Xiaohui really reported the crime, Liu Yudong would probably have to file a report at the police station, and both fingerprints and DNA would be archived.In this way, the fact that he killed the homeless man was exposed, so he swallowed his anger and left the house.But can he really bear it?Han Yin pondered for a while, and asked, "Do you know what happened to Liu Yudong after his divorce?"

"I'm not sure about this. You can ask Lao Li and his wife, or go to his unit." Injustice, but in fact, less than half a month after Xiaohui and Liu Yudong divorced, the mother and child impatiently moved into the house given by the old man. The old man was in construction and gave them the house A well-decorated big house."

"Then do you know their current addresses? Please write it down for me, and I also want the addresses of Cheng Xiaohui and Liu Yudong's units." Han Yin said.

"No problem, I went to visit them when they first moved, and I am familiar with Liu Yudong's unit, but Xiaohui has quit her job now and is completely taken care of by that old man." The old Huangtou agreed, got up and walked into the study, After a while, he came out and gave Han Yin a note, "Here, I wrote it for you. By the way, I have the key to the opposite door. Her family wants to rent out the house. Let me open the door for the housekeeper. You Do you want to go in and have a look?"

"That's great, I'm sorry to trouble you." Han Yin said.

Section [-] Lock the suspect
Coming out of Shengda Community, Han Yin immediately called Du Yingxiong and Yao Jian and asked them to join the team.After a short time, several people gathered together.Han Yin took the time to talk about Liu Yudong's situation. Everyone felt that from the perspective of personality characteristics and psychological trajectory, Liu Yudong did match the criminal profile quite well.

Afterwards, several people began to divide the work.Du Yingxiong and Wang Kun went to Xincheng Chemical Company in Fengshan City, where Liu Yudong worked in the labor union of this company.However, Han Yin told them to keep a low profile, not to have direct contact with Liu Yudong for the time being, and to find out about his recent actions from colleagues and leaders around him.With Liu Yudong's paranoid personality, divorce is obviously a huge stimulus to him. How could he hold back and not take any "redemption" actions for two months?Perhaps there is an explanation that is more reasonable - he is concentrating on planning even more terrifying crimes!
Han Yin and Yao Jian went to Li Yun's house to try to clarify Liu Yudong's suspicion and background.But before going, they went to the trace inspection department first. Han Yin handed over several small evidence bags containing hairs to the technicians and asked them to do DNA testing as soon as possible.He collected those hairs from the bathroom of the house where Liu Yudong and Cheng Xiaohui lived before their divorce. If the hair DNA is successfully compared with the previous evidence, at least it can prove that Liu Yudong killed the homeless man under the Qianjin Bridge.

According to the address given by the old Huangtou, Han Yin and Yao Jian came to the current residence of Li Yun and Cheng Xiaohui - Jinhua Community.This community is actually very close to Hongxing Lane. In fact, it was built on the original site of Hongxing Machinery Factory.A few years ago, the factory was merged and moved to the suburban industrial park as a whole. The land of the factory was acquired by real estate developers and developed into the current residential area.

The two pressed the doorbell, and it was Cheng Xiaohui who answered the door.Hearing that the police came to inquire about her ex-husband, Cheng Xiaohui backed away, claiming that since the divorce, she had completely cut off contact with Liu Yudong, and had no way of knowing his current situation.Li Yun, who came out of the bedroom after hearing the sound, also followed suit, emphasizing that anything that happened to Liu Yudong had nothing to do with their family.

Han Yin called up Zhao Xiaolan's photo from her mobile phone to let Li Yun identify her. This time she did not deny it, and simply said, "Yes, this girl sells health care products. I brought her home."

"Is it July 7 this year?" Yao Jian asked.

"Hmph, how can I remember, how old am I, can my brain compare with your young ones?" Li Yun said with a sneer.

"Was your son-in-law Liu Yudong present?" Han Yin asked.

"Yeah, he just got off work, and it took him a long time to sit there. I trained him a few words to be honest." Li Yun said with a disdainful expression.

"After that girl left your house, did Liu Yudong follow her?" Han Yin continued to ask.

"No, I sent her out, and I went to the square to dance." Li Yun shook her head, paused, and added, "But when Xiaohui and I went home later, he was not at home. Said that he didn't come back until eleven or twelve o'clock, said that the unit had an urgent need for a promotional draft, so he went to work overtime temporarily."

"Yes, that's right." Cheng Xiaohui echoed her mother.

After the two women finished speaking, Han Yin and Yao Jian looked at each other. Liu Yudong probably felt despised and ridiculed by Zhao Xiaolan in the process of dissuading his mother-in-law from buying health care products, so he became murderous and followed Zhao Xiaolan all the way, waiting for an opportunity crime.

Han Yin was about to continue asking questions when his cell phone rang suddenly. He nodded at Yao Jian, signaling him to deal with the girls first, and then hid in the entrance to answer the phone.When he came back after a while, Han Yin asked solemnly, "You really don't know where Liu Yudong lives?"

"Of course I don't know, I have already said that I have nothing to do with him." Cheng Xiaohui emphasized.

"Then you should know his mobile phone number?" Han Yin asked again.

"He didn't take his original mobile phone with him. Who knows if he has a new mobile phone now." Li Yun said impatiently, "He left the house cleanly, do you understand? The mobile phone was also bought by our family. He has to give it back to us."

"What about the child? Hasn't he come back to see the child?" Han Yin asked dumbfounded.

"This... this..." Speaking of the child, Cheng Xiaohui hesitated for a while, exchanged glances with his mother, then looked up at the clock on the wall, and said, "Oh, it's almost time for school, I have to go to kindergarten Pick up the child, I don't know why you are looking for Liu Yudong, I really can't help you, you should think of other ways."

"Yes, I have to cook too, so I won't chat with you guys anymore." Li Yun continued.

"Don't, don't, let's talk again..." Seeing that the two mothers got up one after another, Han Yin said to Cheng Xiaohui politely, "If not, we will drive you to pick up the child. Let's talk about Liu Yudong on the way?"

"Okay...well." Cheng Xiaohui hesitated for a moment, then said reluctantly, "Then wait for me, I'll change clothes."

"Why, what's wrong?" Yao Jian asked impatiently after watching Cheng Xiaohui and his wife's back. He already felt a sense of crisis from Han Yin's expression and question.

"Xiao Du made the call just now. They arrived at Liu Yudong's unit, and the unit said that Liu Yudong resigned three days ago." Han Yin paused, his expression became more serious, "What's more abnormal is that this kid didn't take any personal belongings away. The resignation procedures have not been completed, but he just said hello to the leader, and he disappeared. In addition, his unit is next to Ningshan Park. According to his colleagues, he usually goes to work by bicycle, and occasionally takes the bus. When driving, he walked through Ningshan Park and arrived at the station relatively close.”

"That's all right. It seems that after work that day, when he wanted to go through the park to take a bus, he met Wang Caihua, who was blocking the road for prostitution..." Yao Jian took a breath and said, "But now look at this kid It's a bit unlovely, it's probably like you said you're holding back something bad, and you're about to act!"

"So no matter what, we have to find some clues from the mouths of these women." Han Yin said.

After dawdling for more than ten minutes, Cheng Xiaohui changed her clothes and went out with the two of them.

After getting into the car, Han Yin asked, "By the way, it's still the question just now, did Liu Yudong come to see the child?"

"He didn't come to my house to see him," Cheng Xiaohui said halfway, and began to point out the way to Yao Jian, "My daughter is in Sunshine Kindergarten, you go straight along the main road, then get on the bridge, turn right at the second intersection when you get off the bridge almost there."

"I know it, you go on with your story." Yao Jian said angrily.

"I didn't mention it to Liu Yudong when I moved here. Logically speaking, he shouldn't know that the child has been transferred to Sunshine Kindergarten. But about a week ago, he went to the kindergarten to look for the child. Fortunately, I was extra careful and called the principal in advance. He didn’t succeed because he said hello and never let the child meet him. It is said that because he couldn’t see the child that day, he almost got into a fight with the kindergarten security guard.” Cheng Xiaohui said.

"He is the father of the child, he has the right to look after the child!" This woman is so snobbish, Yao Jian couldn't help but choke Cheng Xiaohui.

"You don't know, he is usually a quiet person, but in fact he has a bad stomach. When he comes to see the child, he actually wants to disturb us and prevent us from having a good life." Cheng Xiaohui continued to stand on her own ground and said.

While talking, the car turned into a street, drove not far away, began to slow down, and slowly stopped at the side of the road.Suddenly, Cheng Xiaohui pointed out the car window and yelled: "Liu Yudong..."

At 4 o'clock in the afternoon, it was the time for Sunshine Kindergarten to leave school. The security guard opened the big iron gate as usual, and the children of all classes lined up at the gate, waiting for their parents to pick them up in an orderly manner.

At this moment, a man with a newspaper in his hand suddenly bumped away the two parents who were standing in front of him, and then he put the newspaper aside, and there was a gleaming machete in his hand.He shouted "I want you to know who I am", and then rushed to the children's team, waving the machete in his hand...

In an instant, almost everyone present was stunned by this sudden scene, stunned in place like a log.But it was too late to say it, and at the very moment, a big black and rough hand suddenly stretched out from the side, blocking the falling blade without fear.There was a swish, blood splashed, and a few broken fingers flew into the air.Although this stop was like a mantis' arm being a cart, it also changed the trajectory of the machete, and the big blade fell close to the child's body.Immediately, a thin body rushed towards the man wielding the knife. The man was unprepared, staggered and fell to the ground.But the machete was still in his hand, and he slashed at the person on top of him frantically, struggling, trying to get rid of the person, but he was entangled desperately... until Han Yin and Yao Jian appeared...

end
Liu Yudong committed a murder in front of the kindergarten, and was captured by Han Yin and Yao Jian on the spot. At the same time, the DNA comparison results using hair as the test material showed that Liu Yudong was the assailant under the Qianjin Bridge that year. As for the other two cases, that is, Ningshan Park He also confessed to the Red Star Lane murder case.Of course, at this point, he doesn't need to hide anymore, he has been invisible for too long, and he wants more people to see his existence.

The day after Liu Yudong signed the statement, Han Yin and Du Yingxiong left Fengshan City on the first flight.To be honest, the case this time could only be considered unsatisfactory. Both of them felt that their chests were congested, and there was an indescribable depression.Especially Du Yingxiong, he was very sad. He didn't go to the detention center to pick up Chang An who was released without charge. He didn't know how to face him, let alone how to tell him that Master Chang was gone!

Yes, it's Master Chang!In front of the Sunshine Kindergarten, with his thin body, he threw himself at Liu Yudong, who was holding a murder weapon, to defend the safety of the child, but he himself was hacked to death!

A few days later, as the Fengshan City Public Security Bureau officially notified the case to the outside world, Liu Yudong's serial killing incident attracted widespread attention from the society and the media, and the topic continued to ferment on the Internet platform.

Many people shed tears and praised the brave and fearless Lord Chang, and some even expressed sympathy for the murderer Liu Yudong under the guidance of certain media.This is not beyond Han Yin's expectations. Whenever such incidents happen, some media will deliberately write some highly inclined, controversial and even inflammatory articles by using the excuse of digging out the root of the murderer's crime.They excuse human traffickers, seek sympathy for scammers, and even dig out the brilliance of human nature of serial killers.

Han Yin still remembers that a while ago, some media had seriously discussed the absurd topic "If the victim in a rape case is dressed in sexy clothes, should he also be held responsible for the crime?"Han Yin really wanted to scold people at that time, but this was no longer an insult, it was vicious, and it was an inhuman assumption.When the victim is brutally abused and severely persecuted physically and mentally, what she needs is the understanding and care of the public, not any scrutiny.The reason is simple, she dresses sexy and is seen by many people, why is that person the one who committed the crime?
Back to the Liu Yudong incident.There are too many people who have suffered injustice in this world. Chang Ye and Chang An also often face the embarrassment and bullying of life, but they choose kindness and justice.You Liu Yudong feel that you are rejected by your work unit, oppressed by your family, and society is unfair to you, so you have the right to hurt others?Han Yin knows this kind of people very well. They are not the tragic heroes that some people say. They are cowardly, paranoid, selfish, and inferior. As Mr. Lu Xun said, "the cowardly are angry, but they draw their swords towards the weaker." In fact, they are real coward!
