Chapter IV: Investigation
In the afternoon of the next day, Dongyu District Police Station.
A young policeman is telling three people, including Xia Qi, about the case that has happened in recent days.
"Counting last night's incident, this is the fourth homicide that has occurred in the jurisdiction of Dongyu District. The identities of the deceased varied, including business executives, workers, teachers, and even students at school.
These are a few photos taken on the spot, which can't be described as miserable, it's really miserable. ”
After the young policeman finished talking a little exaggeratedly, he opened a folder on the desktop, and then asked Xia Qi and them to come and take a look.
Xia Qi moved the mouse and kept flipping through the photos above, the scenes of death recorded in the photos were varied, some were in the bedroom, some were in the bathroom, and some were in the living room.
Almost none of the bodies of the deceased were intact, and the ground was littered with severed limbs, severed heads, and some pieces of flesh.
"Vomit ......"
Xia Qi was frowning and looking at it, when he heard a retching sound behind him, and then he heard the young policeman remind:
"The bathroom is over there."
Hearing the guidance of the young policeman, a man and a woman who were originally standing behind Xia Qi ran over quickly.
Xia Qi did not take his eyes away from the photo because of the sudden departure of the two people behind him, but the young policeman looked at Xia Qi with a surprised look and said in surprise:
"Can you stand it?"
"What can't stand it, and if you can't stand it, it only means that you are still too tender."
Xia Qi finished browsing all the photos, got up and smiled at the young policeman and asked:
"Did you throw up?"
"You should have asked me how many times I threw up, to be honest, I've been having nightmares for the past two days, and when I'm alone, the slightest bit of wind and grass can scare me half to death."
The more the young policeman spoke, the more fear on his face intensified, and by the end of the day, his voice had begun to tremble.
Xia Qi didn't let the young policeman continue, but pretended to look at him profoundly, and asked the policeman:
"According to what you said before, there have been four similar cases in a row, and they all fall under the jurisdiction of your Dongyu Police Station, so have you investigated anything?"
"This ......" The young policeman shook his head a little embarrassed after hearing this:
"Not yet."
"How many days?" Xia Qi's face sank.
"What?" The young police officers apparently have not yet reacted.
"I said it's been a few days since the case happened!" Xia Qi's tone also became cold.
"Eight...... It's been eight days. "The young policeman didn't know what Xia Qi's situation was at all, he was fine before, why did he turn his face when he said it at this moment.
In fact, there is such a big change of face, and there are also plans for Xia Qi.
This incident occurred in Dongyu District, Xining City, and there were three people involved in the execution, including him, but unfortunately there was no Leng Yue among the personnel.
The other two are newcomers who have just passed the trial period, although they have accepted the existence of supernatural things, but in terms of psychological quality, he can explode countless streets between the two.
To put it mildly, it is not in the same realm at all.
Because the incident was urgent, he didn't even eat, so he drove to Xining City overnight, and then met two newcomers who were also part of the incident at the Dongyu District Police Station.
They thought the same at this point, and the prompt only told them that the incident occurred in Dongyu District, Xining City, so if you want to get the most accurate information, the Dongyu District Police Station is undoubtedly the best choice.
After arriving here, although he and the two newcomers did not have any communication, they knew each other well and knew that both parties were sent by the company, so they all spoke in unison at the police and said that they were together.
After that, it became clear that Xia Qi used his work card to pretend to be an investigator sent from above, and began to ask the police on duty about the approximate case.
I didn't ask much at the moment, but just looked at some photos, and the two newcomers had already vomited to death.
Since it was sent from above, the police obviously didn't get to the point, so Xia Qi could only pretend to be a comparison, scaring and scaring this young policeman who was a rookie at first glance:
"You know it's been eight days? In eight days, eight people have died in your small Dongyu district, and you have found nothing, is this appropriate? ”
"I ......" The young policeman was speechless by Xia Qi's questioning, but kept wiping the cold sweat on his head.
Xia Qi saw that the young policeman was really scared, so he stopped acting, and said in a calm tone:
"The leaders above attach great importance to this matter, so they sent us down to assist you in the investigation, but as the contact party of the case, you did not provide us with any valuable clues at all, how can we help?"
"We also know that this is a very bad case, and we want to find clues to solve the case as soon as possible, but this case is really ...... It's just weird. ”
"Weird?" Xia Qi secretly said in his heart, and hurriedly asked, "What do you mean by weird?" ”
"Of course, there are no clues to these four murders in a row."
"There have been four homicides, how can the murderer not leave any clues, is the murderer still a ghost?"
"I don't think so." The young policeman smiled bitterly and said:
"At the scene of the four homicides, no clues were found that there was a third person other than the deceased at the time, and if it weren't for the fact that the four cases were too similar and all happened in Dongyu District, we would even suspect that these four cases were not homicides at all, but suicides."
When the young policeman said this, the two newcomers also walked out of the bathroom with pale faces, but they did not approach the computer again, but sat directly by the door, listening weakly to their conversation.
Xia Qi gave a concerned look, and both of them shook their heads knowingly, signaling that Xia Qi was fine. Seeing this, Xia Qi put his mind back to the inquiry with the young policeman.
"Why do you think it's not a homicide? Have you ever seen a person who committed suicide and cut off his body piece by piece? ”
"No, no, no, you misunderstood, we didn't think it was suicide. It's just that the feedback on the clues makes us feel a little bit like this. ”
The young policeman hurriedly explained.
"Don't go around with me, what the hell is going on." Xia Qi's face sank again, but this time he didn't pretend, but he was really annoyed by this policeman.
Seeing that Xia Qi was a little anxious again, the young policeman seemed to suddenly remember something, and said:
"Actually, we did find a clue that wasn't a clue. It is precisely because of this discovery that we have the feeling that these four cases are suicides. ”
"What did you find?"
"Time to die."
"Time of death?"
"Well, there have been four cases, and in each case there were two deceased, but the autopsy reports were not the same. Take the two deceased last night as an example, the man's death report shows that he died two days ago, and the woman died last night.
According to normal logic, it is undoubtedly the woman who killed the man in the house, and then committed suicide after hiding the body for two days. But in fact, according to our investigation, the woman just moved into the Dongyu community last night, and the scene where the man came back at midnight was recorded on the surveillance.
Moreover, judging from the scene of death, this logic does not hold, because even if the woman commits suicide after killing the man, she will never be able to cut off her head.
But this is strange, two people who should have been killed at the same time, but the time of their death was two days apart, and there was obviously a perverted murderer in the case of the body being divided, but the murderer did not leave the slightest clue.
It's really like what you just said, I'm afraid that only ghosts can do this. ”
