None of us present understood what Bai Qi said, but Bai Qi turned to look at Lin Yingxue and asked, "Do you remember the files in our special case team's archives?"
Lin Yingxue said seriously, "Remember, why is the commander asking this?"
"Then do you remember which year had the most files on cases solved by our special case team?"
Lin Yingxue answered without thinking, "It was the year before last. The files from the year before last could not fit into the entire bookcase, so they were divided into three parts to occupy the files of three years. Could this Qiongqi be related to this file?"
Bai Qi seemed to be lost in memories, thinking, "You only joined our special case team last year. You don't know about what happened the year before last. The reason why our special case team was able to achieve such brilliant and proud results the year before last was largely due to this mysterious man codenamed Qiongqi."
Two years ago, the special case team led by Bai Qi was still carrying out their daily work, collecting major and strange cases from all over the country and helping local police to solve the cases. But one day, Bai Qi suddenly received a strange anonymous letter, and the signature on it was Qiongqi.
Bai Qi was very interested in the signature on the letter, so he opened it and took a look. Unexpectedly, what he got was extraordinary, because the content of the letter was the answer to a strange case they were trying to solve at that time!
The letter described in detail how Qiongqi deduced the murderer's motive and methods of committing a crime, and how the murderer hid his identity. It was so detailed that it seemed as if Qiongqi had committed the crime himself. The letter also gave Bai Qi an important revelation, and he immediately arrested the murderer described in the letter. Upon interrogation, he was found to be exactly the same as described in the letter.
The case that had given the special case team a headache at the time was easily solved. Everyone in the special case team was very excited, but Bai Qi was not excited at all. He was very curious about this Qiongqi. After many investigations, he wanted to find out who this person was. However, this person did not leave any clues about his identity, and they were unable to find this strange person who helped the special case team solve the case.
After that, this Qiongqi would send a letter to the special case team almost every few days. The contents of the letters were all clues and answers to major and strange cases that occurred across the country. Some of them were things the special case team had never even heard of, as they were concealed by local people in charge. Eventually, the special case team intervened and they told the whole truth. Over a period of one year, the special case team solved more than one hundred major and strange cases with the help of Qiongqi's letters. That year, the special case team almost became a department dedicated to arresting people. When encountering any difficult case, no one was in the mood to solve it, and they all waited quietly for Qiongqi's letters.
But the good times did not last long. Within a year, not only was the special case team unable to find out the identity of Qiongqi, this strange man who had to be specially recruited into the special case team, but after a whole year, no more letters were sent to the special case team from this Qiongqi, as if he had evaporated from the face of the earth. This made it difficult for the special case team to adapt for a while. Without the help of letters, the special case team seemed to have lost something.
Originally, Bai Qi thought that this Qiongqi must have been killed while investigating a case, but who would have thought that today in the Binhe Town Police Station in Zhongwei City, he would see this familiar name again. However, the Qiongqi this time was on the opposite side from the Qiongqi who helped the special case team at that time.
After listening to Bai Qi's story about Qiongqi, I can only describe this person whom I have never met in my mind with four words: a genius!
In one year, he alone supported the entire special case team's workload of almost three years. In my opinion, this is something that only gods can do! Moreover, these cases are scattered all over the country. In some cases, Qiongqi may not have been to the scene at all. Maybe he just made speculations based on some news or rumors. But despite this, he still did it, and none of the more than 100 cases were wrong. I was very confused. Could this person be the reincarnation of Sherlock Holmes
"Could it be that the Qiongqi you are talking about is the Qiongqi who sneaked into the interrogation room and killed people this time? How could this be? Hasn't he been helping the special case team all the time?" I couldn't help but ask curiously. I really couldn't guess what such a person was thinking.
Bai Qi said solemnly: "I don't know, but I only know one thing, if such a person becomes an enemy, it will be a nightmare for our special case team and even the national police."
That's right. Since he is able to solve so many cases in a year, he must be able to commit a nearly perfect crime. I believe that both Bai Qi and I understand this very well.
Bai Qi sighed and said, "Now we can only wait for the surveillance video to be found to see what this Qiongqi looks like, and then issue a wanted notice."
While Bai Qi was speaking, I suddenly noticed that there seemed to be something in the corner of the monitoring room. Since there was no light there, I couldn't see it clearly.
I went forward and took the thing out, and then I found that this thing was extremely familiar to me. It was the empty bag that Zhang Peng used to deliver the information of the deceased in this case! The only difference was that this time I could feel the weight of it, and it was not light. There must be something inside.
When Officer Yang and Bai Qi saw that I had found the empty bag and was about to open it, they hurried forward to stop me and said, "Don't open it so quickly. What if there is a bomb inside? If such a small space explodes, none of us will survive."
Only then did I realize that I was careless and immediately handed the package in my hand to Officer Yang. Officer Yang had a serious look on his face and carefully took the package out of the police station and placed it in an open place. He then cut the tape on the surface of the empty package and found a long bamboo pole to open the empty package little by little from a distance.
For some reason, I always feel that what Officer Yang did was unnecessary. Judging from the behavior of that Qiongqi, he seemed to be treating us as toys and had no intention of killing us. Besides, if that Qiongqi really wanted to blow us to death, he would not place the bomb so obviously. If it were me, I would place the bomb where no one would notice it, so that it would be more effective.
Sure enough, Officer Yang clumsily and carefully opened the package, but nothing unusual happened. Seeing that no one dared to step forward to take a closer look, I walked to the package reluctantly, looked down, and was stunned.
I imagined a lot of things that might be in the package, but when I actually saw it, I never expected it.
Even if we have never used some things, we can know their use when we see them, such as what is in the package at this time, a box of adult toys for women.
What was the meaning of that Qiongqi leaving this thing here? Was it to insult the special case team, or did he have another purpose
Perhaps seeing me in a daze, Officer Yang and the others all came over. Seeing what was in the package, they all had strange expressions. Zhang Qishan blushed and turned away, while Lin Yingxue looked puzzled. I thought to myself, doesn't Lin Yingxue know what these are? Is she so naive
On the street, a group of us gathered around a box of such things. Anyone would feel embarrassed. Officer Yang coughed lightly a few times to cover up his embarrassment and asked his men to take the box in for a careful inspection.
We smoked at the door to ease the embarrassment and talked about Qiongqi's deeds. After a while, a police officer hurried to Officer Yang and whispered a few words. Officer Yang immediately took us into his office.
The package was now placed on Officer Yang's desk, and all the contents had been taken out. It was not until then that I discovered that the package contained not only those adult toys, but also a powdery substance the size of a cigarette box hidden underneath.
I looked at the powdery substance curiously and asked, "What is this?"
"poison!"
Officer Yang briefly answered my question, then said to Bai Qi, "Captain Bai, could it be that this Qiongqi wants to tell us that he is also involved in drug trafficking?"
Bai Qi looked at everything on the table carefully, shook his head and said, "I don't know. Based on my experience dealing with Qiongqi for a year, no one can guess what this person is thinking, but he never does meaningless things. I guess there must be a reason why these things are left here."
At this moment, the police officer who was in charge of checking the surveillance came running in, breathlessly saying, "Chief, something happened."
Officer Yang did not ask. We immediately followed the officer and rushed to the monitoring room. On the way, the officer said to Officer Yang, "I was checking the surveillance just now, but I found that the surveillance from last night to today was all black, and the brother in charge of the monitoring room was tied up and hidden under the table, and he is still unconscious."
"Black? What does that mean? Did all the surveillance equipment break down last night?" Officer Yang asked anxiously. The officer quickly replied, "No, I just checked and found that all the surveillance cameras in the station were blocked. But we have found the man from the last surveillance information from last night."
As we were talking, we had already walked into the monitoring room. The room was not very big and had six large screens inside. Each screen had six pictures. Looking around, almost all the screens were black. Then the picture at the rightmost corner lit up. The picture was frozen and there was a strange person in it.
The man was wearing a black windbreaker, a gentleman's hat, a pair of big sunglasses and a mask, completely covering himself. In the picture, the man made a scissors hand gesture to the camera, as if declaring his victory.
The police officer who brought us in explained, "At 1:10 last night, this weirdo quietly broke into the station and blocked all the surveillance cameras. But when he blocked the last one, he seemed to deliberately reveal his true face, as if he was demonstrating to us."
However, before Bai Qi and Officer Yang said anything, I suddenly remembered something and couldn't help but said in surprise: "I've seen this person before!"
