Chapter 223 Quantifiers (1)
Under Shen Yue's suggestion, Kang Ruxin did not take her mother home for the time being.Shen Yue's opinion is very clear: Although she has recovered her memory and basically accepted the reality of her husband's sacrifice, after all, she has sealed up that painful memory for too many years. It is of course necessary to continue observation and treatment.

Kang Ruxin said to Shen Yue: "Or, let's hold the wedding in advance, so that mother can be happier."

Shen Yue didn't object, and said: "Let's talk about Asaoka Taro's matter. After we get married, let's go on a good trip and take our mother with us."

But there was no news from Ouyang Lin.Shen Yue did not call to inquire. He knew that once there was news of that person entering the country, Ouyang Lin would notify him as soon as possible.

After hearing Shen Yue's words, Kang Ruxin felt his worry, and asked, "Isn't it better to have no news?"

Shen Yue smiled wryly: "There is a cross talk that is very interesting. There was a man who rented a room upstairs to a young man. The young man came back very late every day. When he went upstairs, he took off his leather shoes. Throwing one shoe to the ground with a bang, and another shoe with a bang. The landlord couldn't take it anymore, so he reminded the young man to be quiet when he came back every day. The young man was still very late the next day Back, '咚咚咚' went upstairs, entered the room and threw away a shoe with a bang sound. When he was about to throw the second shoe, he suddenly remembered the landlord's reminder, so he gently put the shoe down. As a result, the landlord didn't sleep all night. Do you know why?"

Kang Ruxin asked, "Why?"

Shen Yue said with a smile: "The landlord has been waiting for the sound of another shoe landing. Now I feel like that landlord. I am not afraid, but hope that this matter can be resolved as soon as possible."

Kang Ruxin couldn't help laughing.

The two were talking in Shen Yue's office when Long Huamin suddenly appeared at the door and said with a smile, "Heh! What are you young couple talking about?"

Kang Ruxin blushed a little, and hurried to make tea for Long Huamin.Shen Yue looked at him, smiled slightly and said, "Is there anything else Officer Long can do for me?"

Long Huamin waved his hand at him and said, "Xiao Shen, why do you always call me Police Officer Long? Didn't I tell you long ago, just call me Uncle Long in private. Xiao Shen, I also want to thank you, Ru Xin Mom's current condition is good, you have created another miracle! I heard from the doctors in the mental hospital, and they couldn't believe it was true."

Shen Yue smiled and said, "It's only natural for me to treat my mother-in-law. Why are you thanking me? Ru Xin, don't you think so?"

Long Huamin laughed, pointed at him, and said: "You bastard..." As he spoke, he took out a file from his briefcase and handed it to Shen Yue, and said seriously: "I'm not joking with you anymore, take a look I want to hear your opinion on this case."

Shen Yue opened the case file, which contained an introduction to the case and photos of the crime scene.The name of the deceased was Xin Fen, 32 years old this year, the director of the general office of a prefecture-level city, and a department-level cadre. He was killed in an alley in the provincial capital last night.The deceased had several wounds on his face, neck, and chest. The main cause of death was a punctured carotid artery.

Shen Yue looked at the case file and asked, "The deceased was only 32 years old? It's not easy to be able to sit at the top level in a prefecture-level city at such an age."

Long Huamin nodded and said: "The deceased was a talented student of a certain university. His family was in good condition. After graduating from university, he voluntarily asked to work at the grassroots level. He started as the deputy head of a township in the most remote area and was promoted step by step. This person's The ability is really good, the work is very pragmatic, and he is the object that the organization is going to vigorously cultivate. This time he came to the provincial capital to handle errands, and he did not expect to encounter such a thing."

After reading the case briefing, Shen Yue began to look at those photos.The corpses in the photos were unrecognizable and horrible.He suddenly noticed the words on the wall of the alley above the corpse - a dog...

"Officer Long, the forensic doctor is sure, are these words written with the blood of the deceased?" Shen Yue asked.

Long Huamin nodded and said: "Yes. After the forensic examination, the deceased's blood contained alcohol, but the concentration was not high. As for who the deceased met last night and where he drank, we are still investigating. "

Shen Yue muttered: "A dog... don't you think it's strange to use 'root' as a quantifier? A dog, a dog, seems to be right. A dog, why does it sound so awkward?"

Long Huamin smiled and said, "I think it's more appropriate. A thin and long dog, doesn't it look like a dog?"

Shen Yue shook his head and said, "The deceased is less than 1.7 meters tall and weighs nearly two hundred catties. No matter how you look at it, he doesn't look thin and tall."

Just as he was talking, the technician in charge of the psychological website downstairs ran in panting: "Dr. Shen, our website has been hacked and completely paralyzed."

Shen Yue was stunned for a moment, and asked, "What happened just now?"

The technician replied, "Yes. I can't recover."

Shen Yue asked again: "Could it be caused by too many recent visits?"

The technician shook his head and said: "Impossible. Our website has used the best equipment from the beginning, even if there are millions of people visiting at the same time, there will be no problem."

Shen Yue's heart skipped a beat: Could it be that person is attacking?Most likely, otherwise who would attack such a website that serves ordinary people?Shen Yue thought for a while, and said to the technician: "You find a way to find an expert in this field, and ask him to restore our website as soon as possible. Don't worry about the cost."

At this time, Long Huamin suddenly said: "Xiao Shen, let me find someone to help you solve this matter, we have professionals in this field."

Shen Yue said gratefully: "Then please."

Long Huamin picked up the phone to make a call, hung up the phone quickly, and said to Shen Yue: "They will send someone over immediately."

Shen Yue asked the technician to leave first, and then said to Long Huamin: "I hope to find out where the attacker is."

Long Huamin frowned and said, "Although I don't know much about this, I guess it will be difficult to find that person."

Shen Yue shook his head and said, "Maybe it's easy. If it's really that person, there's no need for him to hide himself. Maybe this is just his first step, his first attack."

Long Huamin seemed to understand, and asked, "You mean, this attacker is probably the one sent by Asaoka Taro?"

Shen Yue nodded and said: "It's very possible. Alright, let's not talk about this matter, let's continue discussing this case."

Long Huamin asked in surprise, "Why don't you care about the website?"

Shen Yue said lightly: "This kind of attack is very boring. If this thing is really done by that person, I look down on him very much."

Long Huamin liked Shen Yue's style very much, and said with a smile, "Haha! Xiao Shen, what you said is interesting. The Japanese, aren't they always like this?"

Shen Yue smiled, changed the topic and asked: "Officer Long, do you know where the dialect uses 'a dog'?"

Long Huamin thought for a while, then shook his head and said, "I don't think so. To be honest, this is the first time I've seen and heard such a statement. Xiao Shen, why are you interested in this matter?"

Shen Yue replied: "It's still the same sentence. Any person's behavior and language are closely related to his psychology. There is no doubt that the three words 'a dog' must be the murderer's intention to express the meaning of killing him. People's anger, but the question is, why did the murderer use such a quantifier in such a special way?"

Long Huamin asked, "Why?"

Shen Yue shook his head and said: "I don't know. That's why I'm very interested, and we have to figure out this issue. I'm not a policeman, I don't have the logical thinking like yours, but from a psychological point of view, the three Words are very personal. Therefore, I think as long as we figure out this problem, the murderer will come into our sight."

Of course, Long Huamin would not doubt Shen Yue's unique ability, and asked, "If you really don't care much about the website, then I will hand over this case to you. Is that okay?"

Shen Yue glanced at him and said, "This is the purpose of your coming here today, isn't it?"

Long Huamin had long been used to Shen Yue's character, and said with a smile: "You can just agree. I will take care of the website affairs for you."

Shen Yue nodded and said: "Okay, that's it. Please contact the local police station in the area where the deceased is located. Zeng Yingjie and I will go there soon... Forget it, there is no need to contact."

Long Huamin looked at him in surprise, and asked, "Why?"

Shen Yue replied: "Because I want to know what kind of person the deceased was. A person will not be killed for no reason..."

When handling such criminal cases, Shen Yue likes to take Zeng Yingjie with him.On the one hand, it is from the perspective of safety. After all, this is a vicious case, and the murderer's modus operandi is extremely cruel; on the other hand, Shen Yue also needs Zeng Yingjie's police thinking to help him find clues.Zeng Yingjie's ability to observe details and logical thinking is very strong. Once Long Huamin said to Shen Yue: "Fortunately Zeng Yingjie made the right choice at the beginning, otherwise I would have lost a lot."

The Institute of Psychology has already bought two cars, a sedan and an off-road vehicle, plus the two police cars used by Zeng Yingjie and Kang Ruxin, the transportation problem has basically been solved.This time Shen Yue specifically told Zeng Yingjie not to drive the police car, he smiled and said to Zeng Yingjie: "Let's go for a private visit."

The city where the deceased worked was more than 200 kilometers away from the provincial capital. It was located to the west of the provincial capital and was one of the poorest areas in the province. It took Shen Yue and Zeng Yingjie nearly three hours to get there by car.

After getting off the expressway, Shen Yue asked Zeng Yingjie: "Where do you think we should start investigating?"

Zeng Yingjie thought about it and said: "The first place the deceased worked after graduating from university was in a remote township. Three years later, he was transferred back to the county to be the director of the education committee. Two years later, he was appointed as the deputy county magistrate. The current position. Tsk tsk! It’s the speed of flying. I think it’s too late today. We’ll stay here for one night, and tomorrow we’ll go to the county where he used to work to learn more. After a person leaves, Maybe people are a little more truthful about him."

Shen Yue nodded and said: "I agree with your opinion, but today's time can't be wasted. You only think that people's evaluation of him is relatively true after a person leaves the company, but you forget that he is only 32 years old this year. level, and in such an important position, there must be some people who are psychologically unbalanced. Of course, people who are psychologically unbalanced will say bad things about him. The so-called bad things are actually deliberately belittling, but we can still find some real situations from it .”

Zeng Yingjie asked, "What do you mean?"

Shen Yue said: "Let's stay here first and find a small place to eat. A young official with a bright future and unlimited achievements in the future died unexpectedly. There must be many people talking about things like this. Maybe we can eat in a lively place like a restaurant." Get some useful information."

After staying in a hotel, the two went out to find a place to eat.The first is a small restaurant, and the second is that the business is good. These are the two conditions Shen Yue requested.Therefore, after they came out of the hotel, the two kept walking, and paid special attention to those alleys with more pedestrians.

Later, Shen Yue found a place in an alley, but this place was not a place to eat, but a teahouse.This teahouse is very ordinary, so ordinary that it makes people feel very messy.Outside the teahouse is a row of coal stoves made of gasoline barrels, with kettles burning on them, and the smell of burning coal can be smelled from a distance.There are some tables and stools in a mess in the teahouse, and there are several large wine jars beside one wall.There are quite a few people inside, most of them are male elderly over five or sixty years old. They wear ordinary clothes. Most of the small tables in front of them have a bowl of wine, a plate of fried peanuts and a few sugared garlic. They look like ordinary retirees. The family is not rich but very leisurely.

The two found a place to sit down, and ordered two cups of Tuocha like most people, as well as fried peanuts and sugared garlic, and two taels of sorghum wine each.The teahouse was chaotic, and some people were talking about the hard case.

"I'm still too young to be promoted so quickly. I've been working all my life, and I was only a deputy section chief before I retired. Young people who are promoted too quickly often don't know how to cherish it. Their hearts are swollen and corrupt. It's no wonder nothing happens."

"This feud is very serious. I heard that he was hacked dozens of knives. In my opinion, he either cut off his family's money, or slept with someone else's woman."

"That must be the case. He is in charge of the pedestrian street project outside the city government. The tens of millions of projects, even the deputy mayor in charge, can't get involved. There are too many things in it."

"He's only 32 years old, he's at the age of youth, and he's in power. Most likely, something went wrong with women."

"It's very risky to be an official now. I heard that several officials in the city have been "shuanggui" recently. Xin Fen is the director of the government office, who specializes in serving the leaders. It was silenced."

……

Shen Yue and Zeng Yingjie sat there drinking silently, but the more they listened, the more unreliable they felt.About half an hour later, Shen Yue gave Zeng Yingjie a look, and the two got up and left the teahouse.

"These people's imaginations are really rich." Zeng Yingjie said with a smile.

Shen Yue also laughed, and said: "Although they are all taking it for granted, there is still some truth to their guess. People die for money, and birds die for food. Money and women are indeed the main reasons for the downfall of many officials. Of course, this It's not a universal rule either. Let's go, let's go eat something casually, rest early, and take a look at the place where he used to work tomorrow."

When the two were having dinner, Long Huamin called. He told Shen Yue that the website problem had been solved, and then said: "As you expected, the attacker didn't hide his whereabouts at all."

Shen Yue asked, "Are you Japanese?"

Long Huamin replied: "Yes. But I can't find the specific place for now."

Shen Yue thought for a while, and said: "There is no need to investigate, it is meaningless to do that. I guess he will continue to attack, please leave a technician."

Long Huamin asked in surprise, "Why does he continue to attack?"

Shen Yue smiled and said: "He is declaring war on me in this way. For the opening remarks, you must always do enough warm-up exercises. Don't pay attention to him. If he attacks, we will recover. It will not exceed three times at most, and he himself will feel bored. .”

Long Huamin said: "Okay. How is the situation on your side?"

Shen Yue smiled wryly and said: "Didn't we just arrive? If the case is so easy to solve, you won't come to me. Of course, I know it's mainly because the deceased is a key training object in the organization. The pressure on you from above is too great. .”

Long Huamin smiled and said, "It's good that you know."

The small county where Xin Fen used to work is surrounded by mountains and is located in a real mountainous area. This is a national-level poverty-stricken county.The place where Xin Fen started to work was located in the mountains about [-] kilometers west of the county seat, in a place called "Qianlai".After inquiring about it, Zeng Yingjie found out that Qian Lai Township was only opened to traffic a few years ago.

The road leading to Qianlai Township is not bad. Although the road surface is narrow and it is difficult to pass the wrong vehicle in some places, at least the road is hardened by cement.The scenery along the way is very good. There are endless forests in front of you. Occasionally, you can see some farmers and fields, revealing a different kind of scenery in the bleakness.

Shen Yue looked out of the car window, and suddenly said: "The once poor mountains and rivers are now called the last pure land."

Zeng Yingjie said: "That's because there are fewer and fewer places like this now."
