Five years ago, August 25 was basically the most difficult period of the year.

Baiyun County is a small county town in the coastal city, this period of the year, is the hottest period of the weather outside, the sea breeze accompanied by high temperature, always gives people a viscous feeling that the air is about to melt, as if the sweat on the body has never stopped, sweating all the time.

At this time, in general, factories and schools will be off for a period of time, for fear that someone will sweat a lot due to the weather.

Not only do people not walk around on the streets, but even stray cats and dogs outside hide in shady places, trying not to show their heads.

But in such a weather, during the hottest time period, there was a terrible scream from a store in the eastern section of Park Road.

Ten minutes later, the police arrived and blocked almost the entire road.

That year, Captain Zhao was thirty years old, and he had just celebrated his birthday three days ago, which happened to be the first ten years since he had been a police officer, and his colleagues held a small celebration for him.

In just a few days, he encountered a scene that he will never forget in his life.

Inside the three-story building, the smell of blood was everywhere.

Even an old criminal policeman like him couldn't control his body a little when he saw such a scene, the contents of his stomach kept churning, and the smell of blood around him filled his nasal cavity, and he still clearly remembered that uncomfortable feeling.

As for the new police officers who have not been here for a long time, they haven't even entered the gate at this time, and they are already looking for a place to vomit outside.

At that time, only the forensic doctor walked around with a mask inside, disposed of the corpse inside as soon as possible, and then moved the corpse out, and the smell of blood dispersed for more than an hour, and the room could barely enter people.

But when he walked into the scene, he was still shocked by the scene in front of him and couldn't speak for a long time.

Captain Zhao actually didn't smoke before, that is, because after this case, he always smelled blood in his nose, so he deliberately began to learn to smoke, just to use the smell of cigarettes to try to remove the residual blood in his nose.

This smoking is five years, and he has completely turned into a big smoker, and he almost never loses the presence of cigarettes in his hands.

Among the five members of this family, there are his teachers back then, the children he grew up watching, and the little couple who would greet him cordially every time he passed by.

He once swore to five corpses that he would solve this case, and if he didn't solve the case, he wouldn't leave the police station for a day.

In the past five years, he has been standing in front of this small hardware store for a long time almost every day, as if he is talking to the people inside, and many colleagues have asked whether he is a magic barrier.

But Captain Zhao said to the people around him without changing his face that he was a demon barrier, because of that murderer, he had already been enchanted, and as long as this case was not solved, his heart knot would never get better.

For this reason, his family has tried to persuade him, and even the leaders of the bureau have thought of countless ways to transfer him out of this task force as much as possible, and even asked him to go around outside on vacation, but he never gave up a day.

Until now, he clearly remembered that his teacher was lying in the corridor on the second floor, and he was stabbed five times, and the blood on his body was almost drained.

Shi Niang's body was lying on the bed in the room, and when she died, her eyes widened, as if she was shouting, but the fatal knife in the chest not only cut off her vitality, but also killed her

The last sentence was pressed into his mouth, and the blood was almost splattered, and the walls around him were everywhere.

What he couldn't stand the most was that the teenage boy was strangled to death, his face turned purple, and there were books in front of him, obviously he was still doing his homework before the disaster came.

Every night, Captain Zhao would be awakened by nightmares, thinking about the horror in his eyes before he died.

In his life, the case he wanted to solve the most was this time, and it was more urgent than ever.

But he hated himself, because in the face of this case, he really felt powerless, and he had tried his best to find it, but there was still no clue.

"The informant is the deceased's sister? Captain Zhao still remembers what the informant said at that time?"

Listening to Captain Zhao tell about the case that happened back then, the group sat in the office, and their mood became very heavy.

Even in the entire office, there is a very sad and indignant atmosphere constantly reverberating.

Only Ding Fan was still calm, looking at the few photos in his hand, and constantly doing various analyses in his heart.

But in the end, Captain Zhao seemed to be a little out of control, and gradually approached the brink of collapse, so Ding Fan interrupted him.

Captain Zhao, who was interrupted by Ding Fan, gradually calmed down and recalled the scene of the inquiry at that time.

"I remember, Xu Ming told me at that time, originally she was booked with Xu Li, to help move, on the day of the incident, she waited at home for a morning, and did not see her sister coming, at that time she didn't take it seriously, just thought, there may be a customer in the morning, busy and forgetful, didn't think so much, but at noon, a guy from my sister's family found her, saying that he went to the store today, but the store was not open, and he said that he drove the truck over today and began to pretend to salute, only to find that the boss didn't seem to be at home。 These two people had a pair of time, and then they felt that something was wrong, and rushed directly to the scene, only to find that the person had ......"

It seems that this case really left a deep impression on Captain Zhao.

Five years have passed, but he doesn't seem to have forgotten all the details of this case, and he can remember any information in his mind.

"In this way, Captain Zhao, can the reporter of this case be found now? If so, I hope to find out all the people related to this case at that time, and I hope that they can remember all the details of this case clearly like you, which will be of some help to our later case analysis." ”

Ding Fan can see that as long as he talks about the situation of this case, Captain Zhao can't control his feelings a little.

This is not a good thing for the case, and it is relatively more objective to find the parties.

It's just that after listening to Ding Fan's words, Captain Zhao seemed to be a little unhappy, thinking that this was doubting his judgment, his face became a little unsightly, and he reached out and wanted to grab it in his pocket.

Ding Fan saw his movements, took out a cigarette from his pocket first, and handed it to him.

"Captain Zhao, don't get me wrong, first of all, I don't believe what you mean, in fact, I can see that you have put too much effort into this case, but there have been no clues for so many years, we can only change the way of thinking to investigate, what you said is not that there is a fictional component, but you have too many feelings for the victim in the case, what I want to know is something more objective, the most direct restoration of the scene at the time, do you understand what I mean?"

Regarding this case, Ding Fan has no selfishness, nor does he doubt others.

Captain Zhao naturally understands this, but he still can't turn this corner in his heart.

After hearing Ding Fan say this, he naturally had nothing to say, so he nodded and agreed.

After getting rid of Captain Zhao's emotions, Ding Fan turned around and walked to Liu Jian's side, stretched out his hand and patted him.

"Fatty, floor plan of the site. ”

Liu Jian nodded, stood up a little obese, held a small slide in his hand, walked to the side of the slide projector, turned it on and began to play the things inside, and then walked to the edge of the curtain.

"Here's the floor plan I found, and the layout of the three floors of the entire small hardware store is here. ”

Ding Fan glanced at the general situation of the entire floor plan, calculated the size of the interior, and glanced at Yu Xiaobo next to him in surprise.

Ding Fan lived with them almost every day during this time, and with one of his actions, these people immediately understood what it meant, and there was still a tacit understanding at this point.

"The internal space of the house is not small, the upper, middle and lower three floors, estimated, there are about 150 square meters, the bottom floor should be used to sell goods, and the upper two floors are used to live in it!"

"This house was actually rebuilt later, not as big as you said, the bottom floor has more than 60 square meters, there are three rooms in the middle, together it is a little more than 50, the top is temporary, less than 20 square meters, Xiao Wu and his wife live on it temporarily, because the house at home has just been overhauled, and they are temporarily living here. ”

It seems that Captain Zhao knows more than just this case, listening to what he means, it seems that he is a little too familiar with this family.

"Captain Zhao, do you remember where the victim's body was at that time? Fatty, make a detailed division drawing of the location of the deceased in the picture. ”

"No problem. ”

Captain Zhao nodded, reached out and walked to the edge of the curtain with a pen, stretched out his hand to draw the positions of the five corpses, and marked the names of these corpses in detail, and even made a little change to some positions that did not match the scene.

After Captain Zhao finished drawing here, Ding Fan walked up to Qin Lu's side and asked her in a low voice, "What is on the forensic report, can you tell the order of death of these five people?"

Qin Lu quickly flipped through the forensic report in his hand, and finally rolled his eyes and glared at Ding Fan: "The time of death is only an approximate time, plus the temperature was very high at that time, the conditions at that time obviously couldn't do this, even now it is impossible to accurately time to the extent of less than one minute, are you kidding me?"

Ding Fan was scolded by Qin Lu, and he didn't seem to be unhappy about it, and still walked to Wang Deguang's side as usual.

"Any ideas?"

Wang Deguang frowned and kept looking at Captain Zhao in front of him, and when Ding Fan asked him this, he seemed to be startled by him, and finally just reached out and pointed twice on the body of the captain.

Although Wang Deguang's movements were subtle, who didn't see the people sitting next to him?

One by one, their eyes fell on Captain Zhao's body, and even Qin Lu seemed to look at him with a little suspicion.

Only Ding Fan didn't seem to have any suspicion about this person, and he was still standing beside him, discussing the structure of the house with each other, as if he wanted to know how much the house had changed later.

Anyway, it doesn't seem to have much to do with this case, and everyone is confused.
