I'm on TV.
Since the last case, I don't know what magical power Officer Yang used, but he actually got a TV station to interview me. It was my first time facing the camera and I was extremely nervous. I felt like I had made a fool of myself. Fortunately, this interview was only broadcast on our local TV station in Zhongwei City and it didn't have a big impact, so I didn't care too much about it. But I was still more or less disappointed in my heart.
"This time it's a local TV station, next time I'll try to get on CCTV, good job, haha!"
Officer Yang seemed to have walked out of the shadow of Xiao Zhang's death and became his cheerful self again. However, I noticed that the way Officer Yang looked at me had changed unconsciously.
That look had become very kind, as if he was looking at a relative. Officer Yang used to look at Xiao Zhang with this kind of look. It was obvious that after this incident, Officer Yang had turned the person he trusted the most from Xiao Zhang to me.
I was naturally very happy to have gained the trust of Officer Yang. After all, in this way, he would no longer hide any clues from me in the future.
Zhang Qishan has now completely become the 'nanny' of my family. She comes to my house on time every day to cook. Because of what I said at that time, I felt a little embarrassed, but Zhang Qishan didn't have any complaints. She was so happy every day and went out to play games with me after dinner. I was a little surprised. Doesn't she have to go to work to earn money
However, Zhang Qishan gave me a reason to be extremely jealous, that is, after her sister and brother-in-law passed away, most of their property was given to Zhang Qishan. Moreover, her brother-in-law is said to be very rich and has few relatives. So even if Zhang Qishan does not have to work now, it is enough for her to live for a lifetime.
"You are so rich, but you still cheat me of my money. Is that okay?"
Facing my question, Zhang Qishan said as if it was a matter of course: "What do you mean by fraud? That's what I deserve, okay? Besides, I always feel happy to spend your money. What can you do to me? Haha!"
Unconsciously, the relationship between Zhang Qishan and I became subtle. I felt that this relationship had gone beyond friendship, but it was not love. It seemed that there was only a thin layer of window paper between the two, but neither of us had waited for the opportunity to break through this layer of window paper and sublimate our feelings.
In short, with Zhang Qishan's company, I no longer feel lonely in this strange city. I have even begun to forget my first girlfriend who hurt me, and Lin Yingxue who always makes me worry.
For some reason, Bai Longfei has contacted me less frequently recently. Maybe he has noticed the subtle changes between Zhang Qishan and me, so he doesn't disturb us.
Such dull days lasted for about a week, and the weather had become several degrees below zero. One morning, I had just gotten up, and Zhang Qishan directly took the key, opened the door and walked into my house. He didn't care about what I was wearing, and started to clean up and prepare meals in the kitchen.
I had also gotten used to having Zhang Qishan around, so I got up and went to the bathroom to wash up. After I finished washing up, I heard Zhang Qishan humming a little tune and walking to the bathroom door. He stared at me without saying a word, as if he had something to discuss with me.
"What are you going to do?" I looked at Zhang Qishan in confusion.
Zhang Qishan seemed a little hesitant. After thinking for a long time, he sighed and said, "Let's get a puppy."
Indeed, Diandian's death made Zhang Qishan and I sad for a long time. Now, hearing Zhang Qishan's request, I was suddenly moved. Looking at Zhang Qishan's begging eyes, I smiled and said, "Okay, after dinner we will go to the pet store to choose. We will keep the one you like."
When Zhang Qishan got my affirmative answer, she immediately rushed over excitedly, hugged me, kissed me hard, and then jumped and continued to cook.
I stood there blankly, touching the place where Zhang Qishan had kissed me just now. I felt warm in my heart and carefully recalled the feeling of being kissed by Zhang Qishan just now.
After breakfast, Zhang Qishan and I prepared to go to the pet shop, but before we reached the door, my phone rang. I took it out and saw that the person calling was Officer Yang, whom I hadn't seen for many days. After seeing this call, I realized that something must have happened again.
"Officer Yang, what's going on?"
Officer Yang seemed a little unhappy and said, "Can't I call you if there's nothing wrong? You've become famous this time, and colleagues from many places are interested in asking you to help, but I turned them down for you."
I was a little confused and asked, "You turned it down? Why?"
"Those are small cases, and you'd be wasting your time going there. But I have a big case here, are you interested?"
If Officer Yang considers this a big case, then it must be very complicated. However, I find that the more complicated the case is, the more interested I am in it. I immediately made an appointment with Officer Yang and prepared to go to the police station to discuss it in detail.
Zhang Qishan had been listening to my phone call. She was originally very excited, but she immediately fell silent. I turned to look at Zhang Qishan who looked disappointed and said with a smile, "Let's go, let's go pick out the puppy first, and I'll go after we buy it."
Zhang Qishan looked up at me and shook his head, saying, "Forget it. Your mind is not here at all right now. There's no point in going. Let's go find Officer Yang and ask him what's going on first."
"You want to come with me too?"
"Of course, we are partners."
Zhang Qishan and I arrived at the police station together. Officer Yang was already waiting for me in the office. When I entered the office, I found that there was an old friend in the office.
That was Ding Yang, the forensic doctor from the special case team who had worked with me to crack the murder method used by forensic doctor Xiao Zhang!
When Ding Yang saw me come in, he immediately smiled and said, "Hello, we meet again."
"Why are you here?" I asked in surprise.
"There's a case here, and the forensic doctor quota here hasn't been assigned yet, so I have to take over temporarily."
Since Ding Yang can appear here, it proves that Bai Qi already knew the details of this case, and it should not have happened today.
But I don’t quite understand. We clearly agreed before that the special case team would not interfere in my affairs for the time being. Asking Ding Yang to help with the last case was already a helpless move on my part. What’s the situation now
Officer Yang seemed to see my confusion and said with a smile, "Don't worry, Ding Yang belongs to the forensic department of the special case team. No one knows his identity on paper. This is also the decision made by Chief Bai after careful consideration. You don't have to worry."
Since Officer Yang said so, I naturally would not refuse Ding Yang's participation. And to be fair, with a professional forensic doctor like Ding Yang around, many things can become much simpler.
Zhang Qishan and I came in and sat down. Officer Yang first glanced at Zhang Qishan, then looked at me with an inexplicable look and said, "Are you two together?"
As soon as I said this, my face immediately turned red. Zhang Qishan did not say anything, but just lowered her head shyly, which seemed to be a tacit attitude. Officer Yang just smiled and did not continue to ask. He said: "This time I asked you to come here because there is indeed a difficult case. Let me tell you the details first."
Three days ago in the morning, residents of a building in a community in the new district of Zhongwei City found a person lying in a pool of blood at the elevator entrance on the fourth floor. After checking carefully, they found that the person was dead. They immediately called the police. Officer Yang and others rushed to the scene, first made a record of the scene, and then took the body back to the station. Unfortunately, there was no forensic doctor in the station, so they could not verify the time and cause of death of the person.
But the body was very strange. The deceased was a male, a resident on the sixth floor of the building. He was 26 years old, unemployed, and had complicated social relations. Although Officer Yang was not a forensic doctor, he could tell that the deceased should have been strangled to death because there were obvious strangulation marks on his neck. But the strangest thing was that the deceased's left eyeball had been dug out and its whereabouts were unknown.
Although the community was newly built, the developer did not install surveillance cameras in the building or the elevator for some reason. Therefore, Officer Yang had no idea what was going on at the time. He immediately called Bai Qi for support, and Bai Qi then sent Ding Yang to act as a forensic doctor.
But who would have thought that before Ding Yang arrived, something unexpected happened in the building again the next day.
Also in the morning, also at the elevator entrance on the fourth floor, another female corpse was found the next morning. The deceased was also very young and was also a resident of this building. The cause of death seemed to be the same as the previous victim, both were strangled to death. Moreover, the left eyeball of this female corpse had also been dug out and disappeared.
Two similar cases occurred in two consecutive days. The residents of the building were suddenly panicked. There were many different opinions and people were in a panic. Officer Yang was also very troubled. While calming the residents' emotions, he was anxiously waiting for Ding Yang's arrival.
Finally, Ding Yang arrived in Zhongwei City on the afternoon of the next day and immediately performed autopsies on the two bodies. He finally found the missing eyeballs of the two bodies. It turned out that the eyeballs had been swallowed into the stomachs of the deceased.
The cause of death of the two bodies was the same as Officer Yang's guess, that they were strangled to death with bare hands. But strangely, no fingerprints were found on the necks of the deceased.
After listening to the whole story, I finally understood why Officer Yang called me over. This was indeed a headache-inducing case, and the murderer's method of killing was extremely cruel. He actually dug out the victim's eyeballs and made the victim swallow them. It's sickening to think about it.
I was about to ask for details when Ding Yang leaned in and said, "Actually, this isn't the weirdest thing. The weirdest thing is that I only found the deceased's own fingerprints on the surface of his eyeballs. In other words, the deceased dug out his own left eyeball and swallowed it!"
