In the middle of the night, Chu Yu took Muyu to Jinshui Hospital. The car drove fast all the way and took off in place. Her hair was blown dry before going to bed. It was fluffy like a puff. It is a patient who has just recovered from a long illness, and even his lips are less bloody.
Because of anxiety, she frowned slightly with an overly paranoid focused look in her eyes, thinking about Xia Yihan's illness all the time, her whole person seemed dazed. As a result, when she drove into the gate of the hospital, the security guard was startled, and after a long while, he recognized her and hurriedly gave way to open the door.
The police car was already parked downstairs in the administration building, and the flashing red and blue police lights merged with the lighting emitted from the building. Fortunately, there was not much movement in the Zhenglou after the inpatient department was cleared. The patients in the inpatient department had already rested. When the police car entered the hospital, the siren was turned off, for fear of disturbing thousands of patients.
It was head nurse Yang Qiong who received Chu Yu and Muyu. She took them into the elevator and pressed the 6th floor button.
"How is it, is Dean Hu out of danger?"
Yang Qiong shook her head. She should not be on duty tonight, but when she was about to change her shift, something went wrong. The patrolling security found that President Hu was lying in a pool of blood with weak signs of life. She hurriedly notified the doctor on duty to carry out rescue work. In a hurry, Hu Bin is still lying on the operating table. If the operation is completed, Dr. Sui will notify them as soon as possible, but there is no news yet.
The elevator door opened, and a gust of wind came onward. This season, the temperature difference between day and night is large. Chu Yu was wearing a long thin shirt outside. Go to the diagnostic room.
The blockade has been enclosed outside, and the police have laid out a row of survey pedals. Trace inspectors have taken footprints and fingerprints indoors. The blood on the ground has been sampled and sent to a DNA laboratory for comparison.
Chu Yu stood behind the blockade and stared at the pool of blood in the room. The whole room was stained with a layer of red, filled with a strong smell of blood.
"What about her?" Although he still didn't know what happened, he intuitively told Chu Yu that this matter was related to Xia Yihan, and it was very important.
Yang Qiong's face was sallow, and Chu Yu didn't say the name, but after she realized it, she couldn't help shivering. Only then did she feel that the long-neglected autumn meaning had come.
"It's gone. After the incident, I went to her room and it was empty."
"What about monitoring?"
Yang Qiong paused for a while before saying, "The monitoring has been off for a while, and there is no picture."
Chu Yu's face became more and more ugly, she glanced at Muyu, Muyu understood, nodded, and followed the investigator to the monitoring room.
Seeing that Yang Qiong was trembling, Chu Yu suggested to sit in the consultation room next door for a while, and she didn't know whether it was because of fear or cold.
After closing the door, Chu Yu turned to the guest, took a cup of hot water with a disposable paper cup, and handed it to Yang Qiong, with a soothing tone in his voice, "It's okay, there are police now, there will be no more accidents, tell us what you know. Say it."
Yang Qiong took the cup and held it in her palm, letting her cold fingertips get warm, otherwise she would feel like she would become a corpse from the cold.
"After you left, I notified all the nurses on duty, as well as Xiao Xia's attending doctor, Director Xie, and told them not to approach Ward 710 for the time being. I was responsible for delivering meals and medicines. I was thinking about you early in the morning tomorrow. I just came back. After more than ten hours of work, the problem is not big, but at 8:00 tonight, when I was about to change shifts, I received an internal call from the security guard. He found Dean Hu in the diagnosis room. At that time, he had lost Meaning, the signs of life are weak, and the colleagues who are still on duty rushed over to rescue them immediately."
She had already explained these contents just now, so the criminal police did not take notes, but further asked: "At eight o'clock in the evening, President Hu shouldn't be in the diagnosis room, right? How did the security guard find him?"
"Yes, President Hu usually gets off work at six or seven o'clock, but these days because of a patient's business, he often stays in the hospital to check the information and discuss the condition with other doctors, so it is common to work overtime, but he rarely goes there. The diagnosis room usually has an appointment, and our appointment system does not show that he has an appointment in advance, and Cheng Qiang, the security guard who found him, found that a room upstairs was still lit when he was patrolling the garden. And that room is usually not used after seven in the evening on weekdays. He felt strange, so he came to check, but he didn't expect to see it as soon as the door opened..."
Chu Yu: "Then when did you find out that Patient 710 was missing?"
Yang Qiong shuddered, "After President Hu was sent to the rescue, Cheng Qiang called the police, because you reminded me before you left, so I paid special attention to the 710 patient, so I went up to see it, but I opened the small room on the wall. I found behind the window that it was empty, and then I asked the security guards to search the ward to make sure that the patient was not in the room, and then the security captain asked the security team to search the entire hospital, and at the same time called out the surveillance, but found nothing."
Seeing the doubts on the detective's face, Chu Yu speculated that Yang Qiong had not told them about Xia Yihan, and quickly explained: "Patient 710 is a patient who has been hospitalized in the last half month, and President Hu is working overtime because of her illness. She disappeared tonight."
After she finished speaking, she didn't wait for the detective's response, turned to Yang Qiong and asked, "How long has it been since she was found missing?"
Yang Qiong looked at the time on the phone, lowered her head and estimated, "About two hours, maybe longer."
Everything happens so suddenly that no one pays any attention to the time, although time often plays a crucial role in cases.
Chu Yu listened silently and drew a timeline in her mind. She left room 710 at around six o'clock today. The security guard found out that Hu Bin was after eight o'clock, and Xia Yihan disappeared within two or three hours. The fence is made of copper and iron, and the gate is guarded by security. Can Xia Yihan get out? Is she still in the hospital now
From Yang Qiong's account, the detective roughly clarified the matter, "This 710 patient, what kind of mental problem does she have?"
The door of the room opened, and Director Xie just arrived. He also received a call from the hospital. He rushed over overnight, heard the policeman's question, and replied casually, "Adult autism, except for Dr. Chu, she does not talk to anyone else. people talk."
When the words fell, Chu Yu gave him a deep look, and said nothing.
Today, she hypnotized Xia Yihan, because she knew in advance that her willpower was too strong to cooperate with a psychiatrist, so she supplemented it with drugs, successfully hypnotized Xia Yihan, and entered her inner world for the first time.
However, it didn't go well. Xia Yihan's defensive awareness was too tenacious. After falling asleep for a long time, he woke up, and in a state of high alertness, he almost flipped the table and beat people.
After that, Chu Yu and her stared at each other for two minutes, and what they saw was a pair of eyes without any waves. Although she was forcibly hypnotized, she was angry, she resisted, she overreacted, but there was no warmth in her eyes. There is no emotion, no waves, like a lake of stagnant water, even if the wind passes through, it will not be shocked by any movement.
Seeing that Chu Yu's expression was wrong, Director Xie approached her cautiously, "Doctor Chu, before you left today, you made a new discovery, right?"
"Yes," she stood up and walked out the door, "I'll take it slow at the project meeting."
The investigators and security guards searched the entire mental hospital, and there were no suspicious persons. The monitoring was debugged by Muyu and it has returned to normal. Through monitoring, it was also confirmed that there were no suspicious persons in the room of the inpatient department.
Early in the morning, the hospital's conference room was temporarily reserved for the project. The team leader did not allow Chu Yu to participate. After all, all the police officers and forensic experts were present. However, Chu Yu called the director to explain the situation, and the team leader was asked by the team leader. Unusually invited in, together with the wooden fish.
Liu Quan, the leader of the task force, received news that after the operation, Hu Bin was not in danger for the time being, but because of the severe head injury, he was in a deep coma and could not provide effective clues for the time being.
Surviving victims, eyewitnesses and surveillance are favorable conditions for providing clues, but now seeing that all three paths have been cut off, the case has suddenly fallen into a deadlock.
Chu Yu turned to Muyu, "What's going on with the surveillance?"
Muyu put a metal box in the center of the table, and said with an expressionless face: "Next to the control panel that integrates the monitor signal, we found this device, which is an electrical signal jammer, which is often used in theft cases. The thief wants to Entering a house with a surveillance camera, before sneaking into the house, you will install this first, then set a timer, and control it from a distance, you can block the signal at the time you want to steal and prevent yourself from being caught by the surveillance."
Liu Quan: "The equipment in the monitoring room is manipulated. This is the omission of the staff on duty. In other words, the hands and feet are the internal personnel who can enter and leave the monitoring room at will."
Wang Meng, a technician who just went to check with Muyu, answered, "Both officers on duty have asked about the time of the incident, and they have sufficient alibi, and according to them, except for the staff in the hospital, No outsiders have entered the surveillance room in the past week."
The criminal police present at the scene looked at each other in dismay, there was a tacit understanding, and they roughly judged the direction of the case.
Next, the forensic doctor showed the photos taken at the scene on the central screen, and began to analyze it, "According to the clues collected at the scene and the information about the injury just obtained from Dr. Sui, he deduced the following incident:
First, the murderer first grabbed the victim's neck, threw it against the wall, and his head was hit by the corner of the cabinet. At this time, the victim had not lost consciousness and had a fight with the murderer, because the victim had a lot of fighting resulting wounds and bruises.
Second, during the fight, the murderer hit the victim's head, causing him to lose consciousness. Next, the murderer carried the victim to the diagnosis bed, took an anatomical position, took off his shirt, exposed his chest, and inserted a scalpel into the victim's sternum. With the protection of the sternum, the knife did not penetrate the chest cavity, so it was not fatal.
Third, the murderer used another scalpel, which is currently confirmed to be a small round blade of No. 15, to carve a pattern on the victim's left chest. The carving was not deep and was not fatal. "
After the photo was shown with the forensic doctor's description, Liu Quan nodded his head, his hair was standing on the top of his head, revealing his protruding forehead, showing his wisdom that was overflowing.
Several trace inspectors also reported the situation, "We took 10 blood samples from the scene, and the results will be available tomorrow morning, but for the time being, it can be judged that there are no valuable footprints and fingerprints, fingerprints on doorknobs, desktops, and scalpels. All come from the victim, the murderer is cautious and has a strong sense of anti-investigation."
All the circumstances at the scene were brought together, Liu Quan stood up and made a summary, "According to the findings of the forensic doctor Qi and the trace inspector, the following inferences can be made about the murderer:
One, commit crimes alone, young and middle-aged men, young and powerful;
2. Get to know each other with the victim, and the victim will be unsuspecting;
3. Familiar with the use of scalpels and have medical common sense;
Fourth, be familiar with the working hours and routes within the hospital, and have a strong sense of anti-investigation. "
The criminal police present made records one after another to facilitate future investigations and arrests.
Chu Yu sat at the front of the long table and didn't speak for a while, silently gathering useful clues, but now that she heard this inference, she couldn't sit still and stood up, "Captain Liu, the murderer in this case is not necessarily a man. ."
Liu Quan was preparing to deploy work, but was suddenly interrupted by Chu Yu. He was quite displeased. In his opinion, Chu Yu was an uninvited guest, and he forcibly intervened. He came to the case handling team, which was extremely eye-catching. With a long face, now she is still forcing her sense of existence and questioning the team's conclusions.
"Dr. Chu, according to the victim's injuries and the state at the time of discovery, it can be judged that the murderer is a male. First, an untrained ordinary woman cannot subdue an adult male with his bare hands and cause harm to him; second, a female The physical strength is not enough to pick up an 80kg male and put it on the diagnostic bed."
Chu Yu walked to the front and confronted Liu Quan. Of course she noticed his displeasure, but she didn't care. Facts were the king. She felt illogical. Even if Liu Quan was an explosive grenade, she Also be positive.
"First, the murderer in this case can be an unusual woman; second, when the victim is knocked down, he may be leaning over on the bed, and the murderer only needs to turn over. His marks will be left on the floor and table, so it cannot be judged that the victim must have fallen to the ground based on those marks."
Chu Yu was right, he didn't bring out any "magic sixth sense", Liu Quan couldn't find a reason to refute, he paused and glanced at the detective who was in charge of the record just now, "Doctor Chu, I have seen you. According to the record of the conversation with Nurse Yang, the 710 patients in the hospital disappeared last night. You may suspect that she did it, but as far as we know, the female patient is thin, quiet and reserved. The upper hand, it is even more impossible to knock down and stun the victim with only one person's strength."
Chu Yu frowned involuntarily, remembering the strength of Xia Yihan's grip on her arm last night. She had never felt the strength of an adult male, but she was sure that if Xia Yihan and the man were to wrestle her arm, she would not necessarily lose.
"Having said that," Chu Yu argued, "but I wonder if you know that the missing 710 patient, since she came to Jinshui Hospital, strange things have happened frequently in the hospital, and other patients around her are often out of control. The victim, Dean Hu, and I both agreed that she has the ability to influence others when she made dangerous actions. If Dean Hu met with her last night, she might have lost control of her emotions. You are sure that his injuries were caused by others. For?"
Forensic doctor Qi hurriedly stood up and confirmed his professionalism, "It is certain that although self-injury and injuries caused by others do not seem to be very different, they can still be distinguished by careful inspection, such as the angle, depth and position of the wound, like the scapula. Position, no matter how flexible your limbs are, it will be awkward to stab with a knife."
"Also," the forensic doctor's temper is much milder than Liu Quan, and he pointed out the loopholes euphemistically, "Doctor Chu, you just said that the 710 patients affected all other patients, and the victims were normal people, and they were experts in psychiatry for a long time. , is unlikely to be affected by female patients."
Listening to what they said, the range of criminal suspects has been determined to be male. Chu Yu felt that if he continued to argue, it would only prolong the time. She changed the subject and asked, "So you suspect that the internal staff of the hospital committed the crime?"
Upon hearing this, Liu Quan thought that Chu Yu was enlightened, and his face softened, "Yes, next, we will focus on investigating the male staff in the hospital."
"What about the missing female patient?"
Liu Quan and Qi forensic doctor looked at each other and exchanged glances. Liu Quan's fingers tapped on the table with special meaning, like the gavel that the judge struck during the trial.
"Dr. Chu, when you left the hospital yesterday, did you specifically instruct the doctors and nurses in the hospital to stay away from the 710 patient and not to touch her for the time being?"
"Yes," Chu Yu nodded, "because I found out that she has potential violent tendencies."
Liu Quan knocked on the table, and there was a crisp "pop" sound, as if a certain truth had finally been determined, "Yes, in this way, the possibility of her committing the crime can be ruled out even more. Since you have instructed, Dean Hu should not No matter how close she is, she will not be quietly taken to the diagnosis room to meet alone."
Chu Yu stared at the live photos on the screen and fell into thinking - Dean Hu was her father's friend. When her father was in office, the two often had contact because of work matters, and they knew the bottom line, so Dean Hu must believe that She wouldn't risk getting close to Xia Yihan under the premise of her warning, it didn't make sense.
In fact, if Hu Bin is awake and asks him about these things, the truth will come out, and he will stay up all night tossing up a project. Unfortunately, the old man is still lying in the ward, and he does not know how long he will not wake up.
Fortunately, he was still alive, Chu Yu thought, but this gave rise to a doubt, why didn't the murderer take his life? Is it because the time was too fast and he missed it, or did he deliberately save his life? Isn't he afraid that Hu Bin will identify him when he wakes up
Chu Yu said the doubt, and forensic doctor Qi explained, "That's right, doctors in the hospital often wear surgical caps and masks, and they all wear white coats, so at first glance, it's easy to identify the wrong person. We suspect that the murderer is wearing a mask. Wearing a full doctor's uniform, I'm sure the victim won't recognize him, or will recognize the wrong person."
This should be the most reasonable explanation at the moment. Chu Yu fell silent and began to doubt her thinking direction. Maybe her thinking was wrong? Because she had a violent contact with Xia Yihan last night, she subconsciously focused her attention on her, suspecting that everything was related to her. What if she was also a victim in this matter
"So," Chu Yu's voice was low, looking worried, "you suspect that the 710 patient was also taken away by the murderer, because of her special characteristics, and I emphasized yesterday that you should not approach her for the time being, so the medical staff are staying away. Did she give the murderer an opportunity?"
Liu Quan nodded, "Yes, we suspect that the murderer is hiding people's eyes and ears. We want to focus the police's attention on the missing person. We instinctively think that the missing person is the murderer, and he absconded in fear of the crime!"
In this way, the matter formed a complete chain, which temporarily met all the clues, but Chu Yu still felt that there was something strange, but she didn't want to argue any more, because if it was as Liu Quan deduced, then Xia Yihan might be in danger at the moment!
The criminal police began to deploy work internally, and the investigators further obtained more clues to investigate suspicious persons among hospital workers. At the same time, technicians found Hu Bin's personal devices such as mobile phones and computers, and looked for useful information such as recent contacts.
The results of the blood test will come out tomorrow morning, and only tomorrow can a large-scale search be carried out. In the psychiatric hospital, one police officer feels helpless, surrounded by a group of mentally sensitive people. I am afraid that if the movement is a little louder, the whole hospital will be in chaos. It's really a dance of demons, and it's not conducive to the search work.
Chu Yu walked out of the conference room, feeling unsteady in her footsteps. Yang Qiong was waiting outside. Seeing her coming out, she grabbed her and was impatient, "Doctor Chu, how is it, is there any result?"
Because the murderer has not yet been caught, Chu Yu did not disclose the content of the meeting in accordance with the principle of confidentiality, but instead asked, "If the door of ward 710 is locked from the outside, it will never be opened from the inside, right?"
Because she remembered that when she left yesterday, she locked the door with her backhand and pressed the door handle, which was considered to be locked from the outside.
Yang Qiong nodded, "Yes, so I'm curious, did someone open the door for her?"
The only people who opened the door for her were the people inside the hospital.
Chu Yu's heart sank, as if standing on the corner of the balcony, but the ground in the corner was full of cracks and suddenly broke. At the moment when the whole person was weightless, the blood surged up rapidly, and the brain fell into a mushy state for a while.
