The rescued girl was short, with long black hair, with a full head curtain. She was beautiful and slender. She was probably fourteen or fifteen years old, maybe even a little younger. Due to the strong mental stimulation, she kept a blank face all day long, and never said a word except "red skirt". For such an acute stress response, it would be inhumane to force her to recall the appearance of the suspect, and Shen Liufei's simulated portrait would not be useful for the time being.
The girl was afraid of others touching her body, especially her lower body, so she only did some routine examinations, and her body recovered very quickly. She was terrified of seeing all the strangers, only because she was rescued by Tao Longyue and Su Mansheng at that time, and she was not defensive about them. She could show expressions and give some responses intermittently. Sometimes when she saw Tao Longyue or Su Mansheng, she mixed with With a look of joy and horror, he plunged into their arms, as if he was afraid of being hurt by others again.
The identity of the girl will not be determined for a while, nor can she contact her family, which makes Tao Longyue, who rescued her, in trouble: if she continues to stay in the hospital, she will be harassed and stimulated by some pervasive and unscrupulous reporters, but she really wants to Leaving the hospital, there is nowhere to send.
In the end, Song Qilian took the initiative to make a suggestion, because the girl only got close to Tao and Su. Considering that Tao Longyue was still recovering from his injuries, and it was inconvenient for him to be a man, he could let the girl live with Su Mansheng first, and wait until she felt enough. With a sense of security, and no longer fortifying everyone, you can further receive psychotherapy or even make simulated portraits to help solve the case.
For convenience, Song Qilian also temporarily named the girl Xiaoqun. She said that she could also go to Su Mansheng's house and help take care of Xiaoqun together. At this moment, what she said was actually selfish. Xie Lanshan, who she wanted to face, couldn't face it, and Liu Mingfang, who didn't want to face it, was chasing after her, so she might as well let herself escape from these grievances temporarily, and seek peace in her love work.
Everything was arranged properly, Tao Longyue relaxed a little, put down his boredom, and continued to recuperate in the hospital.
Lying on the hospital bed, staring at the ceiling as lonely as snow, Xie Lanshan came to see him.
"I'm dying, I've been lying here for three or four days, and you're coming to see me?!" When his old friend showed up, Tao Longyue immediately sat up in shock, grabbed an apple on the bed cabinet and smashed it.
Xie Lanshan raised his hand smartly, took the apple firmly in his hand, rubbed it on his chest at will, and took a crisp bite. He walked towards the wounded man, sat directly on the hospital bed, and said, "I'm here to see if you're dead."
"Are you still angry about my last interrogation? You said that you are a big man, your heart is smaller than your ass!" Tao Longyue raised his hand and punched Xie Lanshan's chest, and then stared at him suspiciously again. , "Ordinarily it shouldn't, you have been crushed by Shen Liufei so many times, so your eyes are not too small."
A mouthful of apple almost choked into the air duct, Xie Lanshan laughed and coughed twice, and when his throat became more comfortable, he said, "Old Tao, can you insist on your straightness, I'm really not used to it. "
The brothers didn't have any grudges overnight, Tao Longyue also laughed, and punched Xie Lanshan on the shoulder again.
Xie Lanshan asked about Tao Longyue's injury, and after confirming that there was no serious problem, the topic naturally returned to the case.
"What happened that night? How could you let the murderer run away under your nose?" It's not surprising that the reporters were asking for guilt, and Xie Lanshan didn't understand: Tao Longyue's fighting skills are among the best in the city bureau. , If you didn't catch up with the murderer, that's another story, you're already fighting together, and you can still get stabbed? The other party is afraid of being an Olympic champion.
"Oh, it's not..." Tao Longyue wanted to say that it was Su Man's shout that distracted him, but he immediately realized that it was too irresponsible to push the fault on a woman, so he could only admit it through gritted teeth, "Just think I'm not good at my skills, go back. In the future, if you practice more, you must catch that beast!"
"You didn't talk to Forensic Doctor Su that day—" Xie Lanshan felt that this explanation was far-fetched, and just wanted to continue the question, when Cao Cao in his words arrived, and naturally interrupted his questioning.
Su Man pushed the door open and came in, and saw him sitting beside the bed with a small smile on his lips: "Officer Xie is back from investigating the case?"
Even though he had made an appointment with Shen Liufei not to scare the snakes for a while, but with Su Mansheng's gorgeous face, Xie Lanshan immediately showed the figure of the girl in the red dress 20 years ago. He smiled slightly and probed with ulterior motives: "I went to Cangnan and Yuncheng to visit the local county hospital in Cangnan, as well as the Yuncheng... What's going on?" Xie Lanshan rubbed his chin with his fingers. Chin'er, suddenly came to a realization and said, "That nunnery!"
"It's not a nunnery, it's a nunnery." Su Man corrected him seriously, "Sacred Heart Nunnery of Our Lady of Cloud City."
"Yes, yes, it's not a nunnery, it's a nun's house, but the essence is similar," Xie Lanshan nodded again and again, showing a humble and educated appearance, suddenly raised his eyebrows and asked, "Have you been there?"
Su Man didn't change his face, and said noncommittally, "Didn't you find it all?"
She neither denied nor confessed, at least it showed that she was not upright, and she concealed something. Xie Lanshan's smile deepened, but his eyes were serious: "Only the weak will choose someone weaker than themselves to take revenge. That's not the style of a queen, and it's really not pretty at all."
Tao Longyue on the hospital bed became more and more confused, and pulled Xie Lanshan's arm: "What riddles are you playing, why can't I understand?"
Su Mansheng didn't seem to intend to go deep into this topic, turned his head to Tao Longyue and said, "Xiaoqun has been taken home by me, you can rest assured to recover."
The other party didn't want to mention it, so he didn't want to ask. Xie Lanshan smiled and continued: "Who is Xiaoqun?"
Tao Longyue interjected: "It's the little girl I rescued."
Su Mansheng didn't seem to plan to stay in this ward any longer, he said, "I have to go back to take care of Xiaoqun", then turned and left.
There were two more men left in the ward. The sun had already set to the west, and the light was unusually soft and warm, like a curtain that was gradually drawn at the curtain call of the stage, slowly shifting over the handsome face of one of the men, until he The whole person is in shadow.
Xie Lanshan looked at the painkillers on the bed cabinet, and said to Tao Longyue with a pretense of ease: "Old Tao, take some painkillers, maybe you'll use them in a while."
Knowing that this joke has no meaning, Tao Longyue has a keen sense of smell: "Did you find any clues?"
Xie Lanshan's face was even more serious than before: "The old man has a master named Zhu Mingwu, who participated in the detection of a major case that took four years to solve, the Cangnan serial rape and murder case 25 years ago. The three deceased in this case are exactly the same, and they were also sewed and skinned before their deaths, and they suffered the same inhuman abuse."
Xie Lanshan handed some materials to Tao Longyue. After Tao Longyue hurriedly glanced at the two pages, he felt shocked and angry at the same time: "This grandson is so fucking perverted!"
Xie Lanshan said: "But there is a difference. The deceased who were discovered more than 20 years ago were really raped. They had semen residues in their lower bodies, not just being stabbed by a hard object like a stick. So I have a relationship with Shen Liufei. It is a guess that 25 years ago, the murderer used poison on these girls because of deformed love, but in this case, the murderer's motive is hate."
Tao Longyue agreed, but was puzzled: "The Cangnan rape and murder case has basically never been heard of by those of us in the public security system, and what kind of person would only imitate after 25 years and use the same method to torture and kill women? Does this Kong Xiangping have any family?"
"Kong Xiangping was in his 40s when he committed the crime. His parents died early and he never got married. It can be said that he had no relatives and no reason."
"Then who else?" Captain Xiao Tao touched his chin, thinking.
"In fact, 21 years ago, when the murderer committed suicide, a surviving 11-year-old mixed-race girl was rescued by the police." Xie Lanshan looked embarrassed and hesitated for a while before continuing, "Also, we all know this girl."
Seeing Tao Longyue's eyes wide open and completely stunned, Xie Lanshan added: "Look at the last page of the information."
Tao Longyue hurriedly turned to the last page, and a piece of paper folded in half fell out. When he opened it, he saw the simulated portrait of Su Mansheng.
It was not until this moment that Tao Longyue understood what Xie Lanshan meant, and also understood the riddle between him and Su Mansheng. He was stunned for dozens of seconds, suddenly raised his fist, and burst into a roar: "Even if she has such a tragic past, what's wrong with her, I feel sorry for her, I don't care! What the fuck is this age, still wearing a chastity belt? !"
"You know that's not what I said!" Anticipating the other party's reaction, Xie Lanshan did not fight back and said patiently, "I want you to answer me honestly, we went to the bar to celebrate the day you left the list, where is Su Mansheng? And what happened to you? The masked killer was fighting with him, did Su Mansheng help out and let the killer escape?"
"Fuck your mother Xie Lanshan!" Tao Longyue didn't answer the question directly, his fists fell like rain, disregarding his wounds bursting again, scolding and beating like crazy, "Fuck your mother! Xie Lanshan, I will fuck your mother. I'm fucking your mother!"
"Do you fucking scold my mother again?" Xie Lanshan was also on fire, and a counterattack pressed Tao Longyue, who was on the verge of dementia, on the bed, and firmly restrained him with the weight of his entire body. Seeing that his old friend was torn apart by pain, his eyes were red, but his tone did not soften at all: "You're fucking rational, are you still a policeman?!"
The wound completely collapsed, and the blood soaked through the hospital gown in an instant. Tao Longyue tried to get up several times, but the more he struggled, the more tired he became. In the end, his eyes were full of flowers, his lips were white, and he had no strength at all.
He could only cry, and his ugliness was revealed. He cried and shouted, "Who doesn't want to hide some of his trauma? Do you think you're just hiding it? Why don't you ask your Shen Liufei how he was taken by others? Killed the whole family?"
This time, Xie Lanshan was stunned - the almost cruel restraint and indifference, the hazy melancholy in his demeanor, and the pain that was indistinguishable like salt grains melted into sea water, seemed to have an explanation at once.
After a few seconds, he let go, Ren Taolong jumped up, turned and left the ward.
