Chi Xiaomin is dead? Killed in Yisi Alley
What is Chi Xiaomin's identity, and what forces are behind it
Before she died, why did Chi Xiaomin stand in front of a strange little girl's window like a ghost
What was Chi Xiaomin's intention when he approached Li Hongmei? Instructed by whom
Or, is all this just a joke by Xu Yin
There are too many questions in front of him, but Mingshu can't analyze them one by one, because the "Professor" case is waiting for him to solve. Before Wu Zhen, another person died, and this person is likely to be the most innocent in this series of cases. one of.
The investigation of missing cases has yielded no results. From December last year to April this year, among the missing persons recorded by various sub-bureaus and dispatched offices, there were no eligible persons, let alone the Spring Festival period as mentioned by Luo Ganfeng.
"When I and Xiao Bureau analyzed the case, Xiao Bureau anticipated this possibility." Ming Shu said: "The man behind the scenes - the substitute chosen by the 'Professor' is a person who has no relatives and no friends. He is dead or alive, no No one will notice him, and no one will call the police when he suddenly disappears."
"The most likely thing is a scavenger." After Yu Xiaocheng's incident, Zhou Yuan was much more active than before. After speaking, he glanced nervously at his colleagues around him and shrank his neck back.
"It used to be, but it's not necessarily now." Mingshu said: "Last year, the Public Security Corps asked the sub-bureau and police station to deal with the problem of scavengers. The scavengers either left the main city or entered the community to work. Now they still live by scavenging, basically. They are all in the sight of Pian'er police. If anyone suddenly disappears, there is no need to report it, the police in the area will know."
"Without a job, it is also possible for men in their forties and fifties who live alone." Yi Fei said, "But in this way, the investigation will be very difficult."
Fang Yuanhang drummed his cheeks, "There is no one we are looking for in the unsolved murder cases in the same period of time. Think about it, if the body has been found, the police will start investigating, Wu Zhen knows that it is related to the murder case, but there is no way to do it. Keep calm again. Wu Zhen himself is also a victim, he is not a lunatic like a 'professor', an ordinary person whose psychological quality is not that strong."
Mingshu said: "Since nothing has been found in the disappearance case, we can only start from the time of the Spring Festival. Determining Wu Zhen's whereabouts before and after the Spring Festival can narrow the scope of Mopai's doubles."
Fang Yuanhang raised his hand again, "I have a problem."
Mingshu glanced at his apprentice, "Speak."
"We are assuming that the stand-in exists now, right?" Fang Yuanhang said, "What if the stand-in doesn't actually exist?"
Mingshu raised his left eyebrow.
"What do you mean, the black hand behind the scenes directly instigated Wu Zhen, and Wu Zhen didn't kill anyone?" Yi Fei thought about it and shook his head, "Not to mention that Luo Ganfeng mentioned that Wu Zhen killed 'Professor Qin', but there is no such clue as Luo Ganfeng. , your assumption is too far-fetched - first, so that the mastermind behind the scenes is directly involved in this death game, second, without seeing another person's despair and 'suicide', why does Wu Zhen take it so firmly The baton?"
"No, no, that's not what I meant." Fang Yuanhang was the only one standing in the conference room. Mingshu said that he was hyperactive at grade 10, which is true. As long as there are no superiors such as Xiao Yu'an during the meeting, he will not be able to sit. When you go down, you must stand to be comfortable.
"I know what you mean." Mingshu replied, "You think that the behind-the-scenes manipulator has psychologically controlled Wu Zhen. Wu Zhen thought he killed 'Professor Qin', but he didn't. hint."
Fang Yuanhang said: "Is this idea possible?"
Mingshu laughed, "I think it's a little fake."
Fang Yuanhang put his hands on the table, "Huh?"
"Theoretically it is indeed possible." Mingshu's eyes sank, "But does psychological suggestion really have such a powerful effect?"
Xing Mu couldn't help pouring cold water on the leaders again, "Actually, looking at the entire psychology community, there are indeed people who can do it."
Mingshu turned his eyes to Xing Mu.
Xing Mu was immediately nervous, sitting upright and swallowing his saliva, his cheeks heated up.
"There are indeed people who can do it." Mingshu repeated Xing Mu's words and asked, "Who are the people who can do it? How many such people are there in the entire psychology community?"
Before Xing Mu could react, Yi Fei nodded clearly.
"This..." Xing Mu stroked his neck, "Of course they are all top experts. As for the number of people, I have no specific knowledge."
"And our suspect is an unlucky 'professor'." Mingshu said slowly: "'Professor' is just the nickname we gave him. There is still a question mark on whether he is a professor or not. He may be A lecturer at the University of Medical Sciences may also be a teaching assistant and logistics. There is no need for a question mark, he is by no means the best in his industry, and he has no ability to hypnotize Wu Zhen to the level that Lao Fang said."
Fang Yuanhang quickly retorted, "I'm not old Fang! I'm only 23 years old!"
Xiao Man joked, "Yo, you're only 23? I thought you were 32."
Fang Yuanhang: "Bah!"
The atmosphere was quite tense at first, but now it's easier to relax, Mingshu asked: "Is there any problem? If there is no problem, I will take the task separately. First, delineate the scope of activities of the stand-in based on Wu Zhen's whereabouts during the Spring Festival. Second, investigate Qin in detail. National and provincial suicide case.”
Fang Yuanhang rushed to "Liuguang" again.
Recently, I have dealt with the criminal police many times, and whether it is a screenwriter or employees in other positions in "Liuguang" are a little nervous.
Ou Xianghe, director of the screenwriting department, had an ugly face, "Wu Zhen's matter really has nothing to do with us. You always come here and ask this question, we are very affected."
"Until the case is cleared up, I can only trouble you to cooperate." Fang Yuanhang was always "bullied" in the serious crime team, but he was still a strong detective outside. When Ou Xianghe was told by him, even if he was reluctant, it was inconvenient. Continuing to complain, he hesitated: "If you have any questions, just ask."
Fang Yuanhang said: "I want to see Wu Zhen's work record during the Spring Festival this year."
During the holidays, many industries are on holiday. Most of the screenwriters of "Liuguang" take leave to go home, and those who stay either have important jobs or have no home to go back to at all.
Yang Shuxing belongs to the former, and Wu Zhen belongs to the latter.
The Spring Festival personnel flow table given by the logistics shows that only seven people stay in "Liuguang" during the holiday. The screenwriter Yang Shuxing has an important online drama script on hand, which must be completed during the Spring Festival, and Wu Zhen is the only remaining screenwriter. Responsible for short films.
As early as the tenth day of the twelfth lunar month, Wu Zhen had no work to do.
The government and enterprises have to have a holiday, and as the Spring Festival is approaching, there is no order for Wu Zhen to take over. It stands to reason that Wu Zhen was very relaxed at the time, there was neither a script to write nor a shooting to follow.
Yang Shuxing lives next door to Wu Zhen and has worked with Wu Zhen for many years. According to him, Wu Zhen often went out around the Spring Festival and was not in the room for a long time, which might be nothing to others, but it was unusual for Wu Zhen.
"I can't think of what he does when he goes out." Yang Shuxing said: "He is not the kind of person who relies on 'hitting the street' for inspiration. He likes to stay in the company whether there is a script to write. He also told me that instead of going out To observe others, it is better to read more books and think about how other screenwriters make characters."
Fang Yuanhang asked, "Then do you know where he went?"
"I think it's Suzheng Street." Yang Shuxing said with a smile.
Suzheng Street, located in the northeast of Beicheng District, far from the bustling belt of Beicheng District, has no special features.
On the opposite side, Shanxiang Street is an old street. There is a large "fly restaurant" on the main street.
Fang Yuanhang thought about the layout there and asked, "Wu Zhen mentioned it to you?"
"I guess." Yang Shuxing laughed again, "I write the most suspense dramas, so I like to observe others when I have nothing to do. There are not many people left to work during the Spring Festival. Except for Wu Zhen, the rest are busy with work. No matter how many things we have to do, we will have a good year, right? On the third day of junior high, Chen Hua and I—just another screenwriter—promised everyone to stop working and cook a hot pot together in the evening.”
"Wu Zhen wasn't there at the time?" Fang Yuanhang said.
"Well." Yang Shuxing nodded, "We contacted him and told him about the dinner party at night."
"He came back on time?"
"I'm back, and I bought a big bag of twist."
"Twist?" Fang Yuanhang frowned.
Twist is a fried flour product, not a special product of Dongye City. Although it is sold, it is not much.
The most famous twist in Dongye City is called "Flood Twist", which was opened by a foreigner who came to Dongye for more than ten years.
"Flood Twist" is on Suzheng Street!
Fang Yuanhang immediately asked, "Wu Zhen bought the 'Flood Twist'?"
"Yes, I saw the packaging bag." Yang Shuxing said, "So I guess we told him that when we had dinner at night, he should be in Suzheng Street, or near Suzheng Street. Wu Zhen, Mr. Wu is this person. , never taking advantage of others, he knew that we would prepare hot pot dishes, so he bought the twist."
Suzheng Street is far away from "Liuguang", how could Wu Zhen go there for no reason
Fang Yuanhang's heart was surging, this feeling was like being in a fog, reaching out and touching something that could be gripped tightly.
Yang Shuxing added: "There is one more thing I remember very clearly. You are the police, and your analytical skills are definitely better than mine. I will only tell the facts, not my judgment. When the hot pot was hot that night, I toasted Wu Zhen with a glass of wine. By the way, what did he do in Suzheng Street? Wu Zhen was suddenly very nervous. First of all, he said that he did not go to Suzheng Street. I said that 'flooding twist' is only available in Suzheng Street. He also said that he went to Suzheng Street specially. Buying twist on the street."
Fang Yuanhang said, "Wu Zhen didn't expect 'Flood Twist' to reveal his deeds, and he doesn't want you to know that he has been to Suzheng Street."
Yang Shuxing rubbed his hands, took out his mobile phone, and smiled slyly, "That's all I know. Officer Fang, please add a WeChat."
Fang Yuanhang said "Huh?" in surprise.
During the investigation process, most of the people who had to be questioned avoided the police. How could they ask for their contact information
Yang Shuxing said: "If the information I provide can help you solve the case, that would be the best. I helped you, and I hope to get some 'inspiration' from you in the future."
Fang Yuanhang understood that the suspenseful screenwriter planned to get close to himself and inquired about the details of various cases from himself in order to write it into the script.
Of course not!
After being rejected, Yang Shuxing did not turn his face, and his attitude was quite smooth. For him, he could observe a case up close and accumulate a lot of creative materials.
While Fang Yuanhang went to "Liuguang", the technical investigation was also working at a fast pace.
Zhou Yuan found out that on the 27th of the twelfth lunar month, Wu Zhen paid 29 yuan through his mobile phone at a restaurant called "Wanwancai" on Shanxiang Street.
To the west of Shanxiang Street is Suzheng Street. Before and after New Year's Eve, Wu Zhen went to the northeast corner of Beicheng District. These two places are neither Wu Zhen's daily life nor the location of Wu Zhen's clients.
"The northeast corner of Beicheng District may be the place where the avatar's main activities occurred during his lifetime, and it is also the first scene of the murder." Mingshu has already arranged for police officers to go to Shanxiang Street and Suzheng Street to find the platoon, but the serious crime team is really not enough. Street police station and Beicheng branch for assistance.
During this period, there was also an episode - Wang Hao, deputy captain of the Criminal Investigation Detachment of Beicheng Branch, had always been at odds with Mingshu. In the past, there was Liang Zi, and the previous Lu Kun case made him even more jealous of Mingshu. As soon as I heard that the serious crime team was going to transfer people again, Wang Hao was unwilling and unwilling to assist.
Mingshu was too lazy to have internal conflicts with the sub-bureau, and he didn't want to have the same knowledge as someone like Wang Hao, but the Wu Zhen case was no trivial matter. Now that he had finally caught a crucial clue, how could he not hurry up and pursue it to the end
"Can't get anyone out?" Mingshu said in front of Wang Hao: "I think your Deputy Team Wang is quite busy, you have no fieldwork, and you have no work to report to. Deputy Team Wang is busy, is it because you are in the bureau? While drinking tea, wondering how to deal with me?"
"You!" Wang Hao obviously didn't expect Mingshu to speak so straightforwardly, and he didn't know what to say for a while.
"Me?" Mingshu sneered, "I'm here to ask Deputy Team Wang to assist the Criminal Investigation Bureau's Major Crimes Unit in investigating the case. If Deputy Team Wang can't transfer a team member, he can do it in person. Although there is only one person, it is better than none at all. ,Right?"
When he said this, Mingshu's eyes were slightly curved, which was exactly what Wang Hao looked at the most.
He deliberately re-read the words "Criminal Investigation Bureau" to show that he not only came as the captain of the serious crime team, but also came with the order of the Criminal Investigation Bureau.
The Criminal Investigation Detachment of the sub-bureau is under the jurisdiction of the Criminal Investigation Bureau. Wang Hao can oppose Mingshu, but he does not dare to oppose the Criminal Investigation Bureau. Mingshu has no choice but to bring a group of team members to Suzheng Street to participate in the platoon. .
"This piece may be the first scene, but the stand-in doesn't have to be in this piece, right?" Fang Yuanhang followed Ming Shu and walked quickly towards "Wan Wan Cai", "If we can find the body, it will be easy. Determine the body. The source is troublesome, but it’s better than not even finding the body. My biggest worry is not finding the body.”
Mingshu stopped, "Old Fang."
Fang Yuanhang choked for a moment and muttered in his heart: Lao Fang Lao Fang, are you addicted to it? You must be comfortable when I call you Xiaoming, right
"Hey, Master." But Lao Fang didn't dare to say that, and he still had to obediently call Master.
"It doesn't matter if you can't find the body." Ming Shu said: "This is the active area of the stand-in. Try to investigate as carefully as possible, and you will definitely be able to find clues."
Fang Yuanhang couldn't figure it out, "Can't the substitute be lured by the 'professor'?"
"The possibility is very low," Mingshu said. "There are many unforeseen risks involved in leading a person from one place to another. If I were the 'professor', I would not take the risk. This risk."
Fang Yuanhang scratched his head.
"Wu Zhen usually pays in cash, but in this store, he uses WeChat." Ming Shu patted Fang Yuanhang's back, "Go and ask to see if the people in the store still have any impression of Wu Zhen. ."
It was past the peak meal period and there were no customers in the store. Fang Yuanhang showed Wu Zhen's photo to the boss. The boss watched for a long time, frowning and shaking his head, "I haven't seen this person before."
Fang Yuanhang looked up at the monitor. There are cameras in the store and they are working, but the videos from half a year ago cannot exist now.
"How about I take a look?" The proprietress came over.
"Wanwancai" is the lowest-end restaurant. There are only three people in the store, the boss, the boss's wife, and a young man who was hired only last month.
The proprietress watched for a while, then suddenly said, "I know him!"
Fang Yuanhang immediately said: "He spent at your store before the Spring Festival. Do you remember so clearly half a year ago?"
"Because he was the only person who refused to pay with his mobile phone that day." The proprietress pointed to the QR code posted on the wall, "I usually prepared a lot of change, but that day the change was gone, so he took one hundred yuan. , I couldn't find it, so I asked him to pay with his mobile phone. He didn't want to, so he asked me to exchange money with another shop. I had a fight with him. "
Fang Yuanhang said, "You didn't change?"
"I can't change it!" said the proprietress, "and I asked him if he could pay by mobile phone, and he said yes, but he was not used to it. Hey, then I'm not happy. You can pay, but let me go. Change money? Why?"
Mingshu asked, "What else do you remember?"
"He..." The old bridesmaid was about to speak when the boss suddenly coughed.
"What are you afraid of?" The proprietress was very aggressive and glared at the boss. "The police are here to do things, we don't know if we don't know, and if we know we don't help, what kind of virtue?"
Mingshu smiled.
"I saw him later." The proprietress said, "Our family also opened a shop during the Spring Festival, and I saw him come here more than once."
"Which day?" Fang Yuanhang asked.
The lady boss said, "I can't remember that."
"He's alone, or is there someone else?"
"Just him."
Mingshu was silent for a few seconds, and his eyes suddenly became sharp, "By the way, you just said that your family didn't close during the Spring Festival?"
The proprietress raised her chin slightly, "My son has been admitted to the university in the capital!"
"Ah?" Fang Yuanhang thought, why did it suddenly involve your son
Mingshu said, "Your son's grades should have been good when he was admitted to a university in the capital, right? You are still open during the Spring Festival, so you can save his tuition fees early?"
The proprietress smiled brightly, "Yes, yes!"
"But during the Spring Festival, most people visit relatives and friends, or go to big hotels for gatherings. There shouldn't be many guests in a small home-cooked restaurant like yours." Mingshu said, "When you have nothing to do, you are like just now. Just sit at the door and look out."
The proprietress was taken in by Mingshu and nodded blankly.
Mingshu narrowed his eyes, "Then have you noticed that there are fewer people on this street around the Spring Festival?"
The lady boss looked at the boss, "Are we missing anyone nearby?"
The boss shook his head, "You don't know, how do I know?"
Mingshu said: "If you think about it again, it is a middle-aged male, forty or fifty years old, living alone, with no relatives or friends around..."
Before Mingshu could finish speaking, the proprietress slapped the table, "You said that person!"
Fang Yuanhang immediately asked, "Is there really such a person?"
The proprietress looked back at the boss again, "Hey, didn't we just say it, I haven't seen the old yellow who sells five-hair skewers in the alley for a long time!"
