It was already eight o'clock in the evening when Song Wen took a taxi and returned home. The lights in the community were turned on, and the stars were shining everywhere. He walked downstairs along the path, and when he looked up, he found that the lights in his house were on. Song Wen was not too surprised. He went upstairs and opened the door to see his old lady in the living room holding a mop and mopping the floor diligently.
Song Wen changed his shoes and said, "Mom, why are you here all of a sudden? Didn't you call me in advance?"
The old lady raised her eyes: "Why, I have to file an application report when I go to my son's house?" In order to carry out a surprise attack, the old lady also detained the key of Song Wen's residence.
You can't treat your mother the same way you treat your subordinates. Song Wen, who is usually unsmiling, shows a polite and standard smile at this time: "Where is it, isn't it good for me to pick you up?" He was friendly when he spoke. He took the mop, "I'll come."
Madam Song snorted and sat on the sofa, still a little unhappy. Her real name is Li Luanfang. She is fifty-eight years old this year. Ever since she retired from the hospital at fifty-five, she has been dreaming of holding a grandson, but after three years of waiting, she has graduated from college for the elderly several times. Song Wen still didn't know where to go, so the old lady jumped in a hurry.
Song Wen knew why his mother wanted to raid. This problem was learned from his father who was a criminal investigator. He must see the scene of the crime with his own eyes and not miss a clue. He knew what my mother hoped to find, such as long hair on the bed, cosmetics in the mirror cabinet. Judging by the old lady's micro-expression now, the result this time is equally disappointing.
After dragging the ground, Song Wen sorted out the portraits, pencils and albums on the table: "Mom, have you had dinner? Shall I stop giving you something from the Internet?"
Mrs. Song looked like she had no appetite: "I ate it on the way here." Then she raised her eyes and asked Song Wen, "Why didn't you eat at home tonight?"
Song Wen answered honestly, "I went to dinner with my colleagues."
"Male or female?" Mrs. Song's eyes lit up, and she leaned closer to him and smelled it, "Drinking?"
"A little bit of red wine." Song Wen ducked back, "Of course the man..."
"I thought you would eat with a female colleague when you got enlightened. What kind of red wine are you drinking with your male colleague?" The old lady complained, and Song Wen saw that the spark of gossip in her eyes was extinguished.
"Mom, I just finished a case. A woman dismembered his husband. It can be seen that marriage is too dangerous." Song Wen looked at the old lady, trying to get her to stop the urge to find a daughter-in-law.
The old lady looked at him: "Then you might be hit by a car when you go out, so why don't you go out? People die every day in the hospital, so why don't you go to the hospital?"
Song Wen choked for a while, and could only continue to bury his head in packing.
The old lady who couldn't take it easy was sitting on the sofa before it was hot, and she got up and said to Song Wen: "Give me your pants, they are dirty, what do they look like?"
Song Wen protested: "Where is it dirty? I just took a shower in the afternoon and changed it new."
The old lady pointed to the cuffs of his trousers and said, "It's clean, and there's dog hair. What's the black thing?"
Song Wen: "..."
Suddenly, I want to eat dog meat hot pot even more.
In the end, it was still the old lady, Song Wen obediently took off his pants and changed into a pair of home pajama pants. The captain of the criminal police lifted up his trousers reluctantly, and turned to ask old lady Song who was stuffing clothes in the washing machine: "Mom, why did you give me such a nickname?"
"Little wolf?" The old lady Song raised her head and said, "At that time, your father and I gave your name the word 'wen', and we were afraid of making your temper too quiet, so we gave you a wild one. A little nickname was thinking about putting it all together, who would have thought that it would be wild all of a sudden, at that time my dad and I both joked and said, you are probably a wolf."
Song Wen remembered that when his mother was angry, she would hold up a broom and call him Song Xiaolang with her first and last name, and ran after him all over the yard.
Seeing that he didn't speak, the old lady raised her eyebrows and asked him, "Why, don't you think it sounds bad?"
Song Wen sneered and said, "Where is it? It's very tasteful, and the people who make it have a unique level."
The university town of Nancheng is located in the east of the whole city. It is a vast area and sparsely populated. Several universities stand side by side here. The continuous influx of young people has injected fresh blood into this place and slowly turned into a prosperous city. . In Nancheng University at midnight, the entire campus seemed to be in a deep sleep, and there was no longer the liveliness of the day.
The campus was extremely quiet, except for one or two wild cat meows that could be heard occasionally, and then disappeared into the grass.
The sky was originally clear, but all of a sudden, there were dense clouds, and when it met the wind, the clouds rolled over, as if there were some hideous living things hidden in them.
This summer seems to be a little earlier than in previous years. On a sunny day in May, you can wear single clothes without feeling cold. But now, the temperature has suddenly dropped a lot. Under the moonlight, the cold color is scattered into the campus, and finally projected on the corridor of the girls' dormitory, leaving a mottled shadow.
In the silence, the door of bedroom 108 was suddenly opened with a creak, and a thin figure struggled to escape from it. She stumbled forward, a strange smell came from the originally closed Floating out of the bedroom, the door behind her shook and closed again.
The figure ran for a few steps in the corridor and fell to the ground. She knelt on the door of dormitory 107, stretched out her weak hand, and scratched the door of that dormitory with her fingernails. It was as if a pair of invisible hands were tightly gripping her throat, and the blood and white foam in her mouth spit out uncontrollably: "Help... help... help me..." She wanted to shout hoarsely, but it only turned into a few whimpers .
In dormitory 107, Bai Xiaoxiao was awakened by the sound, raised his head to look, and Deng Jia, who was on the next bed, also rolled over and opened his eyes.
There were originally four people in their dormitory, but one of them succeeded in postgraduate studies and moved to the dormitory of the graduate school, and the other recently went home after taking a leave of absence. Only the two of them lived in the house.
"What's the sound? Can you hear it clearly?" Bai Xiaoxiao asked Deng Jia.
"Isn't it a cat?" Deng Jia couldn't hear it clearly. On this campus, it turned out to be a wild field. There are not many other things, but there are many insects and many cats. Some cats are about to become sperm, and they will smash the door at night.
"Why do I hear someone calling for help? I'm not dreaming..." Bai Xiaoxiao was a little timid.
The two people in the dormitory suddenly fell silent, and they turned their ears to listen. There was no sound of help from outside, but there was a sound of rubbing the door, which was mixed with heavy breathing, as if unable to breathe.
"It can't be a ghost..." Bai Xiaoxiao was about to cry, but there are all kinds of ghost stories circulating on campus. Legend has it that this place was used for exile in ancient times. Many prisoners were buried there. When the foundation was dug up, countless bones were dug up. Now, there is still a large walnut forest in a corner of the campus. Stop those ghosts and evil spirits.
"What nonsense! I'll go take a look." Deng Jia, the head of the dormitory and an atheist, turned over from the top bunk. At twelve o'clock in the evening, the lights will be forced to turn off.
Xiaoxiao turned her mobile phone into a flashlight and cast a beam of white light in the direction of the door.
Deng Jia pretended to be brave and opened a small gap. With the moonlight and the light behind her, she could see a figure lying at the door of their dormitory in the darkness. Something drooped down and hit her in the foot, it was a bloody pale hand!
Deng Jia couldn't help but let out a scream, and the entire dormitory building was awakened by the scream. The miserable scene outside the door has become a nightmare that she can't get rid of for the rest of her life.
Song Wen found that there was a dark corridor in front of him. He walked forward, stumbling under his feet. There was dense rain outside, mixed with thunder and lightning, and at the end of the corridor was a half-open iron door, which was lit inside. The lamp was a little warm orange, and he could smell it. There was a very bad smell coming from the door, like the fishy smell that fish had been kept in the vegetable market for a long time. It was mixed with the musty smell of the old basement. People are sick, can't breathe, and in this dark basement, something is rotting.
Song Wen stood at the door, hesitating, wondering if he should go in. He put his hand on the handle of the door. For some reason, the door that seemed to have some weight opened so silently.
With the light in front of him, he first saw bloodstains on the ground, dry and sticky dark red bloodstains, and then he saw people lying on the ground inside, more than one person, those who were different from those he usually saw. Same, it's immobile, it doesn't breathe, it doesn't have a heartbeat, it's even rotten - dead.
Among those corpses was a female corpse, with long hair and wearing a white gauze. Her beautiful body was already rotten, with only maggots as her company.
If it were normal times, Song Wen wouldn't blink at all when he saw this scene, but in a dream, the kind of fear that came from his heart was completely beyond his physical control.
Song Wen felt cold from the soles of his feet, and the cold sweat kept coming out. It seemed that his neck was tightly choked by a pair of hands, and he wanted to scream but couldn't. There seemed to be thousands of ghosts screaming in his ears, and at that moment, his soul was also dragged into hell.
In that extremely painful feeling, there was a clear voice trying to pull him out, and Song Wen reacted, that was his mobile phone ringtone.
It was a phone call that interrupted his dream.
Song Wen opened his eyes and gasped for breath. He felt his heart beating very fast in his chest. It was almost summer, but his whole body was chilling. The scene in his dream was still there, and he could see the orange when he closed his eyes The yellow lights and the blood on the ground. He had dreamed this dream more than once. The scene he saw that day was always repeated in the dream, but almost every time, it was broken here.
After the phone rang a few times, he pressed the answer button, and Song Wen asked, "Hello?"
On the other end of the phone was Xiao Wang, who was on duty to answer the police. His voice was urgent, and he reported in a barrage of cannons: "Song team, something happened here. Gu Bureau appointed you to take charge. The specific location is..."
Song Wen felt that he was still trapped in a nightmare, and tried to wake himself up. He stroked his forehead and asked in a hoarse voice, "What case, where is it?"
Only then did Xiao Wang rationalize his thoughts: "There are at least two murder cases, and the ones who died were college students. The location was in the university town of Chengdong, the girls' dormitory of Nancheng University."
"What do you mean at least two?" Song Wen grabbed the key words.
"It means that there are other people in the rescue."
"cause of death?"
"It seems to be poisoned..."
How many people have been poisoned on a university campus? Two people died? This level is definitely considered a major case. After listening to these few words, Song Wen woke up completely. He sat up from the bed, then saw the cartoon pajama pants he was wearing, and scolded "Fuck!"
On the other end of the phone, Xiao Wang was stunned.
Song Wen hurriedly said: "I'm sorry, I didn't say you, help me inform Lu Siyu and Fu Linjiang to the scene, Lao Jia and Zhu Xiao are on standby at the police station and cooperate with the work, I will go there immediately."
After hanging up the phone, he got up from the bed and checked the time on his phone. It was just before 1am, when people were most familiar with sleep. Song Wen simply washed with cold water, and then he turned around and started knocking on the guest room. Door.
Madam Song woke up sleepily, opened the door and asked, "What? Are you going to call the police?" As a family member for many years, she has long been familiar with this battle, but the crime scene and the criminals never pick the time.
Song Wen nodded and asked anxiously, "Mom, where are my pants?"
The old lady pointed to the balcony: "I just arranged your wardrobe for you today, didn't you wash it all... As soon as it blows at night, it will be almost dry in the morning."
Song Wen looked out the window. The long to short trousers on the balcony were fluttering in the night wind like a flag.
His first reaction was to think of the police pants he hadn't worn for a long time, and then remembered that he had received the annual award and released it to the market last time. Song Wen was about to cry but had no tears: "Anyway, keep one for me, what do you want me to wear?"
"Then wait." The old lady went back to the room, and after a few seconds, she flipped out a colorful pair of loose nine-point pants, the kind of square dancing, and handed it to Song Wen: "How about you make do with it first? This style There is no distinction between males and females.”
"..." Song Wen was embarrassed to reach out to take it.
The old lady shook her trousers again: "this one, your pajama pants, the jeans that are not dry, you can choose one."
Song Wen was a little depressed, he was a handsome and eloquent criminal police captain.
Seeing Song Wen embarrassed, Mrs. Song curled her lips and said, "Who told you not to find a wife, someone would take care of it and even use your mother to come over and help you do the laundry?"
Song Wen found that for the mother, all topics can be detoured to finding a partner, as long as she wants to.
The police went out in the middle of the night and had to arrive at the scene in time. Song Wen took out his mobile phone to check the time, and then looked at his pajama pants. Put on a set of trousers, the waist and hips are tight, and the trouser legs are loose.
Mrs. Song closed her eyes and encouraged him: "It's quite suitable, it looks like your legs are long, go ahead, don't delay the business."
Song Wen couldn't care anymore, put on a coat, kicked the police officer's card in his pocket, turned around and changed into a pair of sneakers to go out.
It was pitch-dark outside, and the whole city seemed to be asleep. There was not even a single ghost on the road, let alone people. Song Wen opened the taxi app and tried for a minute without a car, so he simply swept a shared bicycle and went straight to the road. In the middle of the night, when the road was empty, he rode wildly for a while, and was stunned to ride the shared bicycle at a speed of 70 miles. Twenty minutes later, Song Wen rushed to Nancheng Normal University out of breath, and when he entered the school gate, the security guard thought he was a student and didn't even ask.
Song Wen rode in, thinking that he didn't recognize the way, turned around again, and asked the security guard at the door, "Where is the girls' dormitory?"
The security guard looked at Song Wen and at the floral pants he was wearing, hesitant.
Song Wen knew that this was treating him as a pervert, so he took out the police officer's certificate and proved himself innocent: "I'm a policeman."
The security guard checked Song Wen's photo. This was the letter. He knew that it was for the girls' dormitory: "I also received a notice about that, and I'll take you there."
While talking, an ambulance drove out from inside, because there was no car late at night, and the siren was not turned on. The security guard looked at the ambulance that was drifting away, shook his head and sighed: "It's tragic, it's too tragic, I heard that the accident was still a senior student, who will graduate in a few months, but died in here."
Nancheng University is a comprehensive university with a history of 38 years. It is the highest institution in Nancheng. The entire school has more than 9,000 students, divided into eight colleges and a team of more than 700 teachers.
It is impossible for so many people in the school to get together without incident. Every school has a quota of deaths every year. Social effects, if the family members are arranged well, it will be fine. If the quota is exceeded, the leader will be held accountable. Nancheng University has always been considered stable and stable, but this incident is a major event. This kind of vicious incident is afraid that it will affect a lot.
The security guard took Song Wen all the way to the downstairs of the girls' dormitory. Song Wen raised his head and saw a figure shaking by the window upstairs. He could feel the eyes shooting down. The structure of this building is quite simple. Each room, the accident room is on the first floor, not far from the door of the building. At this time, the school staff had made an exception to turn on the switch, and the whole dormitory building was brightly lit. However, in order to protect the scene and prevent students from rioting, all students were expressly forbidden to stay in the dormitory, not to go out, and even the windows had to be kept closed.
Tonight is destined to be a sleepless night. When such a big event happened, it naturally alerted the principal. All the janitors and teachers who could be mobilized were called. Some maintained order and some were responsible for appeasing the students. These girls originally lived in The students in the ivory tower have never seen such a battle. With panic, anxiety, fear, and a little gossip and curiosity, at this time, the campus intranet and some class groups have already exploded, and everyone is guessing about things.
The entire dormitory building was blocked by the police, and several police cars were parked downstairs, one of which belonged to Lin Xiuran, Song Wen knew that his own people had arrived. Walking to the scene of the crime, the accident happened in the 108 bedroom, at the end of this corridor. At this time, the outside of the door has been blocked by a yellow warning line. The criminal policeman on duty, the assistant policeman, and the forensic doctor all arrived, and they came over to greet him when they saw him.
Lin Xiuran was standing outside the door. He was about to explain to Song Wen. When he lowered his head, he saw Song Wen's trousers.
Song Wen gritted his teeth and said, "My mother washed all my pants, it's better to wear than nothing." He suddenly thought of what Zhou Yining said before, don't push yourself and his colleagues too hard, today's dress is really good Unexpectedly approachable.
Lin Xiuran was so attracted by the color that he couldn't take his eyes away, "I thought you were wearing the wrong girlfriend's dress blindly."
"Then my girlfriend's taste is bad enough." Song Wen waved his hand, "Stop talking nonsense, let's look at the case."
Lin Xiuran then pointed to Bai Xiaoxiao and Deng Jia, who were sitting in the corridor talking to the two detectives on duty: "Those two are the people who found out, they are the neighbors of the deceased's dormitory, they called the security guard and the housekeeper. Auntie called the police, and the call time was after one o'clock in the evening."
"What's the specific process?" Song Wen frowned slightly as he spoke. He saw that the two girls were pale and dressed in coats, obviously frightened.
"They lived in 107, and the accident happened next door to 108. A victim ran to their door to call for help and woke them up. The security opened the dormitory and found three other victims, two of them dead and one unconscious. , one was not deeply poisoned and was conscious, and both of them with vital signs were sent to the hospital for emergency treatment."
As he spoke, Lin Xiuran lifted the yellow cordon and led Song Wen into the bedroom behind him, which was the first scene of the crime.
