Chapter 75: Rashomon (1)

The moment he turned on the computer, Chen Mingming suddenly had a feeling that there might be a pair of eyes behind him...... It is watching its every move.

Just like when he was in the store that day, he was doing opposite to the boss, 'watching' everything that Zhao Le and Dong Shaofeng had experienced, and just like the vision of 'God' that the boss showed in front of his eyes.

He may also be a member of the boss's perspective.

Chen Mingming thinks that his feelings are not wrong, if it were him, if he wanted to evaluate a person, he would probably spare no effort to observe—just like what he observed at the moment.

Now that it has been determined that the 'Blank King' is the same identity as himself, it is not impossible that he will leave something behind according to his behavior and habits.

Maybe you left it because you knew you might forget it one day, but because you felt the need to do it......

The search for the file is not as difficult as expected, and it is not hidden in any complicated root directory...... Drive D, December 1 - Chen Mingming found this folder in an instant.

There are only two video files...... In chronological order, Chen Mingming clicked on the first video file.

The moment the first video file is opened, a white wall instantly appears...... The camera is shaking slightly, and it seems that the person who shot the video is adjusting the direction of the lens at this time.

Finally, this shaking stopped, and then a figure slowly walked into the camera, sat down, and faced the camera—Chen Mingming and the person in the video were staring at each other at this time.

He can't see the appearance of the person in this shot, he can only see the other person's gaze...... Because the person in the lens is wearing a full-coverage white mask at this time.

The masked man sat quietly like this, and after a few moments, 'he' moved and reached out to the camera — and finally, the camera closed and the video ended.

However, in the short 30-second video, there is no sound, only the appearance of 'he' sitting at the camera.

Although 'he' was wearing a mask, Chen Mingming could feel it, that feeling like looking in a mirror...... The man with the mask is himself.

In the next moment, Chen Mingming opened the second video in chronological order.

This time, the first thing that appears is a dimly lit staircase, going up...... Chen Mingming held his breath a little, this should be the corridor of the old building where Wang Liang's rental house belongs.

Still no sound...... The time shown in the video is 8:23 p.m.

Finally, the camera stopped in front of Wang Liang's rental house.

After entering the door, the camera panned...... It was the scene of 'he' taking off his shoes in front of the door, and then 'he' walked into the living room.

At this time, there was no freezer in the living room, and I saw Wang Liang lying down on the sofa without any movement.

'He' walked to Wang Liang's side at this time, stretched out his hand and poked the other party's neck, and after a while, he withdrew his hand.

Finally, the tools used to shoot the video were placed on the table, and only in front of the camera could be seen, and 'he' dragged Wang Liang into the bathroom.

Time passed little by little, and the timer on the lens skipped second by second.

Eventually, 'he' came out of the bathroom, and 'his' clothes were even stained with blood. 'He' carried a large travel bag and stepped into the bathroom again—something he had brought with him before he arrived.

When 'he' came out of the bathroom again, he was still carrying a large bag in his hand.

'He' slowly left the room, and did not go downstairs to leave, but walked one floor online, pointing the camera in front of Wang Liang's rental house.

The police have already done a field investigation, and the next floor is already the floor of the rooftop, so it seems that 'he' has been staying here all the time, and no one will come down from above.

Finally, after a long wait, another figure slowly came to Wang Liang's door...... He seemed to be hesitating, hesitating, and finally reached out and pushed it in front of the door, and the door was easily pushed open - this is Zhao Le.

More than half an hour later, Zhao Le left in a panic.

"I really want to hide here. ”

It was a processed voice, and the 'he' in front of the camera pointed to the travel bag that had been brought out.

"If you're lucky enough to find him, then he's the only clue I'll keep for you. He will tell you that I exist, whether it is for himself or his sister, and he will not hide me...... But even then, you will never find me. ”

"The truth will always be hidden in silence...... And, in places you will never find, silently watching. ”

......

- The truth will always be hidden in silence.

The video had already stopped, stopping at the last second, but this sentence sounded in Chen Mingming's mind again and again.

After a long time, Chen Mingming smiled with relief and put his hands off the table.

With his eyes closed, he looked up at the pure white ceiling...... He didn't recall anything in his head, but he could easily understand what 'he' was doing in the camera and what he was for.

"Do you want to forget about this, start all over again, and see if I will make the same choice again......" Chen Mingming muttered to himself, "This is the ...... Real exam questions. ”

There was still no one else in the room but him.

But he seems to already know the answer.

It wasn't until dawn that Chen Mingming packed up his things and left, "There are still ...... Twelve hours. ”

......

Chen Mingming returned to Zhou Yusheng's home and brought back a few breakfasts. Zhou Yusheng and his wife fell asleep on the sofa last night.

In the middle of the night, the two woke up one after another, and only when Chen Mingming had returned to the room, they did not disturb. At this time, Chen Mingming's mother had only woken up not long ago and was preparing breakfast.

"Why did you run down and buy breakfast?"

"Went for a run. Chen Mingming smiled slightly...... He found that he seemed to have very few smiles left on his mother, and except in those photographs of the past, there were almost no recent years in his life.

"Well, okay, I'll call your dad. "Mother is in a good mood.

Chen Mingming said, "I'll shout." ”

There weren't many times when I called my father to get up.

......

......

There was another exclamation, followed by a thumping cacophony, and soon after, the sound of the door closing.

Nan Xiaonan walked out neatly dressed.

On the table, Luo Qiu had already prepared breakfast, and the portions were much richer than yesterday's...... Nan Xiaonan chuckled in his heart, it seems that the impression of 'eating a lot' may have been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.

"Miss Ren, are you in such a hurry every morning?"

Nan Xiaonan sat down and asked curiously.

Luo Qiu was reading the newspaper and had been reading it for a while.

"Pretty much. Luo Qiu smiled slightly.

Nan Xiaonan didn't start eating immediately, but said, "There are still two big chapters to be written, and I should be able to finish it tonight." ”

"Thankfully. Luo Qiu nodded, "Miss Nan, you eat slowly, I still have something to do." ”

After folding the newspaper and putting it on the magazine shelf, and saying hello to Nan Xiaonan again, Luo Qiu disappeared from Nan Xiaonan's face.

That atmosphere of restraint and uneasiness disappeared...... Nan Xiaonan slowly breathed a sigh of relief, and only then did she feel in the mood to start eating these prepared breakfasts.

Probably he also knows that if he stays there all the time, he won't be able to let go no matter what...... Nan Xiaonan shook her head, took a piece of toasted bread, and began to spread the jam.

The moment he unscrewed the jam bottle, the sweet aroma of jam instantly hit Nan Xiaonan's nose.

"It's ...... The jam of the Karlov fruit?"

Nan Xiaonan was stunned, and there was an inexplicable joy in her heart...... But after the joy, there was more surprise. It may be an accident once, but it is unimaginable to be able to come up with these things from her hometown one after another.

Her hometown has long since collapsed, civilization is no more, everything has become dust......

After eating breakfast for a long time, Nan Xiaonan reluctantly returned to the room.

Trying so hard to shorten the time for compiling the original plan was naturally because of the panic in my heart, and I didn't know if my involvement in the corpse shredding case affected what Mr. Luo originally wanted to do.

"Hey, why is he so nice to me?"

......

......

Second arraignment.

Zhao Le seemed to have adapted to the dim and cramped environment of the interrogation room, and sat down very calmly at this time, waiting for the person who was about to interrogate him.

But this time it was not Zhou Yusheng who was waiting, but Lin Feng - Zhou Yusheng and Ma Houde, including Chen Mingming and a group of colleagues, were watching the situation in the interrogation room on the other side at this time.

Seeing that it was Lin Feng's appearance, Zhao Le was quite surprised...... Closed up with the other police officers, Lin Feng can be regarded as an 'acquaintance' to Zhao Le.

HE COULD SEE THE REGRETFUL GAZE FROM LIN FENG'S GAZE - BUT THIS LIN SIR WAS STILL IN GOOD SPIRITS AT THIS TIME, AND BEGAN TO ASK QUESTIONS ONE BY ONE ABOUT HIS CONFESSION YESTERDAY.

"Why do you think this 'Blank Jun' wants to help you take revenge?" Lin Feng stared at Zhao Le, "According to the information you exchanged, you and 'Blank Jun' have known each other for nearly a year, so you should know a little bit about it, right?"

Zhao Le said calmly: "Officer Lin, do you think what a person says on the Internet is true or false?"

Lin Feng frowned slightly, "There are a lot of virtual things on the Internet, but sometimes, it is more able to express a person's true self." Because you don't have to worry about who the other person is, you can completely hide your real identity, so you don't have to worry about anything, you can be yourself to your heart's content. ”

Zhao Le was silent for a moment and then said, "As far as I know, 'Blank Jun' is a very pessimistic person...... But it is also limited to the identity of 'Blank King'. You should have studied the content of such a long conversation between us, right?'Blank Gentleman' has discussed the topic of death with me several times......"

Zhao Le paused, as if recalling: "It said that only the dead can live forever and live in the memories of others." ”

Lin Feng said: "So, you think he is a pessimist?"

Zhao Le nodded.

Lin Feng said: "Not counting the start time of this case, you have already known each other for a long time...... I see that your communication seems to be very talkative, so why don't you meet in reality?"

Zhao Le said: "Officer, if you meet someone on the Internet, and the other party chats with you very well, and even has a feeling of soul confidant, do you ...... Will they choose to gradually change the other party's true appearance? Are you afraid that the real person is two different people from the person you know?"

Lin Feng shook his head helplessly, Zhao Le's explanation was not unreasonable, but very reasonable-because many people really only met online, but never planned to meet, such examples abound.

Another police officer sitting next to Lin Feng suddenly said in a deep voice at this time: "Zhao Le, since you said that 'Blank Jun' and you are the soulmate's confidant, then why did you confess him so easily? Doesn't this mean that your so-called friendship is very cheap?"

"I'm just using an analogy, not saying it's my soul confidant. Zhao Le said indifferently.

The police officer of the companion said coldly: "In order to help you take revenge, 'Blank Jun' personally planned this case, and even ran backwards, forging the illusion that Wu Rong and Wang Liang are still alive, I think he really regards you as a good friend, but he must not have imagined that you will confess him without hesitation as soon as something happens, you must be very angry, right?

Zhao Le's face changed slightly.

HE ONCE WENT TO ZHAO LE'S HOUSE WITH LIN SIR AND MONITORED ZHAO LE TOGETHER, AND WAS ROBBED OF 300 YUAN BY LIN SIR AND GIVEN TO ZHANG XIAOQIN...... originally admired Zhao Le's kindness very much, but at this time, he didn't know why he had a grudge in his heart.

These words had already been a little excessive, and Lin Feng couldn't help but kick the other party lightly with his foot under the table.

Zhao Le took a deep breath and stared at the two people in front of him, "So, I should take everything and even admit that I am the murderer, in your opinion, this is what I should do, right?"

"Oh, are you admitting that you're the murderer?"

Zhao Le sneered: "Officer, I think you should go back to the academy and review some of the skills of interrogation." ”

"You ......" the colleague slapped the table, his eyes widening.

At this time, Ma Houde's voice sounded in the interrogation room, and Ma Sir's voice was a little deep, "Lao Wang, pay attention to yourself!"

At the same time, he took a deep breath and sat down again.

There was silence in the interrogation room for a moment.

In the room on the other side, everyone shook their heads helplessly, knowing that if the trial continued at this time, they would not get any useful information, so they could only choose to send Zhao Le back to the detention room first.

"I see that this kid looks different before and after, he must have told a lie! I don't believe these nonsense words of his!" The colleague named Lao Wang snorted coldly at this time.

"We are dealing with evidence, not subjective speculation. Zhou Yusheng said indifferently at this time: "Don't bring personal emotions into the case." ”

Lao Wang was silent at this time.

The crowd began to re-examine the case...... Regarding the tracking of 'Blank Jun', I have only found the owner of the web forum server, but I have not yet been contacted...... If you can't find anyone, you can only consider using some illegal means to hack into the other party's server.

"I think it's actually the wisest choice to find a Zhao Le to confess so quickly. ”

A female colleague said slowly at this time: "You think, in fact, he is right. The reason why he has been hiding it is because he has not been discovered yet, so there is a fluke mentality. But once the matter is exposed, then he is really stupid if he doesn't say anything. If he even took everything down, he really did something wrong...... After all, he still has a life to live, and he still has a sister to take care of at home. According to what we know about Zhao Le, he cares about his relatives very much, so when choosing between 'Blank Jun' and his sister, he will obviously prefer the latter. ”

"But there is still a blank space about the criminals. MA SIR SHOOK HIS HEAD AND SAID, "YOU CAN'T JUST RELY ON ZHAO LE'S WORDS...... Oh, I'm going to lose more than a dozen pounds in this case!"

Everyone smiled, but Zhou Yusheng knew that Lao Ma was trying to change the atmosphere...... In this regard, he thinks that he is inferior to the other party.

"By the way, what about Mingming, why don't you see him?" Zhou Yusheng looked around, but found that Chen Mingming was gone, and immediately asked his colleagues beside him.

"Oh, he said go home and get something and come back later. ”

Zhou Yusheng nodded, and did not continue to ask.

But not long after, Zhou Yusheng's phone rang...... He looked down and found that it was Chen Mingming's mobile phone calling, and after being stunned, he was stunned, and then connected.

"Officer Zhou, hello. ”

"Who are you!!"

In just an instant, Zhou Yusheng stood up straight against the table like an angry tiger - this roar instantly startled the guys in the conference room.

Ma Houde opened his mouth to ask, but saw Zhou Yusheng make a silent gesture, and then the mobile phone turned on the speakerphone, the volume was turned on to the maximum, and he put the phone on the table with a solemn face.

“...... Officer Zhou, Chen Mingming is now in my hands. ”

In the next second, Zhou Yusheng received an email, which was a photo - in the photo, Chen Mingming lowered his head, was gagged with a strip of cloth, and tied to an iron pillar.

"Who the hell are you!" Zhou Yusheng's face was pale, and his tone was cold.

"Aren't you looking for me right now? ”

"You are the 'Blank King'?" Zhou Yusheng shook his head and blurted out.

"I'll give you two hours, and after two hours, I hope you can bring Zhao Le to see me, otherwise Officer Zhou, I can't guarantee the safety of Ling Gongzi. ”

"You want to see Zhao Le!

"Why...... Of course, the imperfections were removed. Everything I did was perfect, but why was he seen? I was very accurate, but Zhao Le still confessed to me...... If it doesn't work, it really doesn't work, and the plan will not be perfect. Since he betrayed me, of course I won't keep him...... I helped him get his revenge because he was pitiful, and now it's time for him to pay the interest. Remember, you only have two hours. ”

"Impossible! You're despising ......" Zhou Yusheng's roar was unfinished, but the phone had already been turned off.

Zhou Yusheng called back again, the phone had been turned off, but before the other party's phone was turned off, he received a text message with an address written on it.

"What's going on?" asked Ma Sir quickly.

"No...... The time is too short to trace the source of the signal. The colleague shook his head, helpless.

"Old Zhou?" Ma Houde looked at Zhou Yusheng at this time.

I saw Zhou Yusheng's face pale, sat down, clenched his fists, gritted his teeth and said, "You can't send Zhao Le out......"
