Criminal Investigation: Collapse

Visiting this kind of thing is a boring and brain-dead job for every criminal policeman.

Wen Lixi led a group of people to knock on the door of an unknown number of professors. The male owner of this family was one of the professors participating in the meeting at that time. After Wen Lixi and the others explained their intentions openly and honestly, the male owner was very polite. He invited them to sit in the living room, and called his wife to bring tea for Wenlixi and the others.

"The decoration style of your home is really nice." Wen Lixi took the water glass from the hand of the host, and said politely with a smile.

The male owner smiled very gently, and said: "I bought this house with the proceeds from my first patent that year. My wife studied interior decoration. It was all planned and decorated by my wife."

Wen Lixi smiled, did not continue the topic, fiddled with her hair casually, and inadvertently glanced at a pair of red high-heeled shoes in front of the shoe cabinet at the door. Those red high-heeled shoes gave her an indescribable feeling, so she borrowed I flipped my hair to the neutral position, and took a second look. The heels of the shoes were at least fifteen centimeters in length, and they were studded with cheap-looking rhinestones, and there were even a few chain-like tassels hanging on the back. The room with retro style looks out of place.

Wen Lixi took a sip of the tea, the temperature was just right, not too hot but still hot enough to bring out the flavor of the tea leaves, one could feel the care and meticulousness of the tea maker.

After putting the cup on the table, Wen Lixi signaled the criminal police next to him to show the photos of the four victims to the host. Zhao Zhiyi's photo was placed on a corner of their coffee table, and he said to Wen Lixi, "I've met these two, and they were sitting obliquely behind me during the meeting. I vaguely remember that they were from Qicheng University. The two of you, but... I'm not sure, because there are too many people attending the meeting, and it's possible that the memory was mixed up."

"Professor Qian, you remember correctly, these two are the representatives of Qicheng University." Wen Lixi affirmed Professor Qian's memory

Professor Qian nodded, looked down at the photos of Feng Ningning and Luo Hao, frowned suddenly, hissed, and said: "I remember these two, there was a dinner similar to a dinner to end the meeting. I happened to be sitting at the same table with these two, and they must be in a relationship. We joked a few words at the time, and they didn't deny it. Later, about halfway through the meal, this man "

Professor Qian turned Luo Hao's photo over and faced Wen Lixi, "He answered a phone call, then left the meeting suddenly cursing, and he didn't even look back when the lady called him, and left straight away. Not long after this The lady left the meeting after answering a phone call, and neither of them came back after the meeting ended."

Wen Lixi twitched his eyebrows when he heard the words, and asked Professor Qian again, "Then, did you notice that the two of you in front left during the dinner?"

Professor Qian shook his head, "I didn't pay attention to this, because the venue was very large and there were many people. I can remember these two clearly because we sat together and made a few jokes."

Wen Lixi shrugged his shoulders, and then asked a few more formatted questions. Professor Qian's answers were no different from those of the professors he visited before, so he got up and was about to leave. Professor Qian got up to see them off. His wife At this time, he also came out of the back room smiling and preparing to see off the guests.

When she was about to go out, Wen Lixi saw the shoelaces on her feet. When she knelt down to tie the shoelaces, the pair of red high-heeled shoes happened to be on her left hand. Wen Lixi had excellent eyesight, and she even Saw bits of dust clinging to the rhinestones of those shoes, as if her master had walked through some mud in her.

Wen Lixi tied up his shoelaces, stood up and casually looked at the pair of red high-heeled shoes, and asked, "Mrs. Qian, your pair of shoes are really unique!"

What Wen Lixi finds strange is that, from the perspective of an ordinary woman observing a woman, she thinks that such a classical style room can be furnished, as well as the plain dress she is wearing and Madam Qian's temperament. , It's not like you will wear such a pair of shoes to go out on a muddy road.

Madam Qian smiled like a gentle breeze, "These shoes are not mine. They were worn by a student of Old Qian's when he came to discuss an academic issue a few days ago. They left in the afternoon. It was raining heavily again, and I saw that the little girl’s shoes were too difficult to walk, and it happened that my size was about the same as that little girl’s feet, so I let her wear a pair of my shoes and walked away.”

When Wen Lixi heard this, he smiled, with a hint of embarrassment on his face, and said, "Then could you please give me the contact information of this girl? I like it too. I want to ask if she is in Where did you buy it?"

Mrs. Qian saw that Wen Lixi looked like a little girl, probably because the little girls love beauty and wanted to buy a pair of shoes when they saw it, so she didn't care much, so she asked Professor Qian to copy the girl's name and phone number for Wen Lixi number to come.

After receiving the note, Wen Lixi smiled and thanked Professor Qian and his wife and apologized for the trouble. The two smiled and waved their hands and sent them out.

As soon as he got into the police car, Wen Lixi put the note in his blue wallet, and heard a criminal policeman in the back seat jokingly say: "Sister Wen, I haven't seen you wearing high heels, what's the matter? I want more today Their contact information, are you going to buy a pair too?"

Wen Lixi was too lazy to play tricks with them, but said to the criminal policeman who was joking just now: "Call Team Jiang now, and repeat to Team Jiang exactly what Professor Qian said just now."

Jiang Yin who received the call threw the phone to Pei Shishi next to him, Pei Shishi picked it up and turned on the speakerphone, the criminal police on the other end of the phone told Jiang Yin the situation just now, Jiang Yin thought after listening After a while, he said to the phone: "You give the phone to Lixi."

The criminal policeman obediently handed the phone to Wen Lixi in the front row.

"Team Jiang"

"Lixi, now check the seating map of the banquet venue that night, and then find the person at the same table as Zhao Zhiyi and Chen Lu and ask if Zhao Zhiyi and Chen Lu had any unusual behavior that night, and then check Feng Ningning and Luo Hao's Communication status, see who called them that day."

Wen Lixi hummed, looked at the small note and said to the phone: "There is one more small detail, I don't know if I was worrying too much or it is true, I just found a pair of red shoes at Professor Qian's house. High heel."

Hearing these three words, Pei Shisi sat up straight. There was no other way. They had seen a lot of murderous perverts, but this was the first time they had seen the dead in high-heeled shoes, so Pei Shishi was listening When I came to this term, there was a physiological resistance reaction.

Jiang Yin didn't have such a big reaction as Pei Shishi, but was taken aback for a moment, and replied: "It's okay, just tell me."

Wen Lixi said: "I saw a pair of red high heels at Professor Qian's house just now. They are the kind that look rough in workmanship, full of cheapness, and are studded with rhinestones. I don't think they belong to Mrs. Qian, so I picked them up. After inquiring, I found out that it was a girl named Gu Xin." Wen Lixi paused, and told Jiang Yin about the situation just now.

After listening, Jiang Yin pondered for a moment, and then slowly said: "I'd rather make a mistake than miss it, and check this girl carefully first."

After Wen Lixi agreed, he hung up the phone.

Pei Shishi put Jiang Yin's mobile phone between the two of them, and looking in front of him, he could see a big sign in the distance, with the words Plant Science Cultivation Center written on it.

At this moment, Jiang Yin's cell phone rang again, and it was a call from the rehabilitation center.

"Captain Jiang, Sichan has two pages for you. Can you come here if you have something to spare?"

Jiang Yin glanced at the watch on his wrist, it was already past five o'clock, he calculated, and he didn't know how long it would take in the Plant Science Cultivation Center, and replied: "I'm here today There is still something to do, I don’t know when it will end, if there is time, I will rush there immediately.”

The other side agreed, and as soon as he hung up the phone, Jiang Yin received a few pictures on his mobile phone. The doctor took pictures of what Liu Sichan wrote on the two pages and sent them to Jiang Yin.

Pei Shisi entered Jiang Yin's mobile phone password with ease.

Jiang Yin hissed, "How did you know my mobile phone password?"

Pei Shishi had a question mark on his face, "Brother? Just now, when your old man asked me to send a text message to Zhang Ju, did you tell me??"

"Oh, I forgot..." Jiang Yin remained expressionless.

Fourteen dared not speak, but Fourteen felt wronged.

Seeing that Jiang Yin parked his car in the parking lot of the Plant Science Cultivation Center, Pei Shishi saw that Jiang Yin didn't mean to let him read the words on the pictures, so he put down his phone and looked out from the window. This place is indeed very sparsely populated, except for the various cultivated fields planted with various plants, there are only two small white buildings with three floors inside the gate.

Pei Shishi followed Jiang Yin out of the car and entered the lobby, where he saw a girl sitting in the duty room.

Jiang Yin took out his ID card from his jacket pocket, and said: "We are the police, and this is my ID card. I have something I want to investigate."

When the girl heard the words, she immediately dropped the pen in her hand, then got up and walked out of the small room in the duty room, and said to Jiang Yin with a smile: "Then I will take you two to see our director."

Jiang Yin nodded and followed the girl's footsteps, went up to the third floor and arrived at the door of an office, but the door was wide open and there was no one inside.

The little girl looked at the situation inside, looked back at Jiang Yin and Pei Shishi a little apologetically, and said, "The director is not here at the moment, why don't you two sit down first, and I'll go find the director."

Jiang Yin smiled, expressing that he was fine, and then sat on the sofa in that office. The little girl went out and came in again, but brought water for two people. When Pei Shishi reached out to take the water glass, he inadvertently He looked up and saw the girl looking at him.

It was a fleeting look.

After Pei Shishi took the water glass and thanked him, he glanced at Jiang Yin again, and found that although Jiang Yin was fiddled with the phone on the sofa, his peripheral vision was scanning the girl's body several times.

Until the girl left, Pei Shishi took out his mobile phone and found Jiang Yin's dialog box in WeChat.

"Brother, do you think this girl is a bit strange!"

"."

Jiang Yin replied with a full stop first, closed his eyes, and after a few minutes, he returned a message to Pei Shishi.

"Use your most professional knowledge to tell me, what did you read from the eye contact with that girl just now?"

After thinking for a while, Pei Shishi typed two words on the keyboard.

"Vigilance and peeping."

Jiang Yin didn't speak, but a thought occurred in his heart.

Because he saw a sentence written by Liu Sichan on the picture sent to him by the doctor in the rehabilitation center:

"When emotion becomes a catalyst, exacerbating a person's ethical subversion, then his eyes will be colored with vigilance and voyeurism."

He had no way of knowing why Liu Sichan had such thoughts, and this sentence was put in front of him by a girl by such a coincidence, and he was also observing the girl's eyes just now, just like the kind of words he said earlier. Flaws, the eyes are the direct bridge between the soul and the outside world, and what is contained in them will not betray the deep roots of the soul, even if the soul has been betrayed by the flesh/body.

Just like Liu Sichan locked himself in a so-called outer-dimensional space, his soul and body discarded the key to communicate with the world like shoes, but the root of his soul always remembered that the key was abandoned in In which gully.

Jiang Yin was stunned for a long time, and typed a few words in Pei Shishi's dialog box:

"Did you notice the name on the name tag on that girl's chest?"

When Pei Shishi saw the news, he shook his head. Just now, he had been analyzing the girl's eyes in his heart, and he really didn't notice the girl's badge.

Jiang Yin sent another message:

"Do you still remember the pair of red high heels that Lixi mentioned? This girl is the owner of those shoes, Gu Xin."

Pei Shishi's eyes widened, and he looked at the two cups filled with tea on the table. He reached out and poured the water from one of them into the flower pot beside him, and then lifted the aluminum vessel used to hold the water.

This is a set of cups, the kind that has two layers for heat preservation.

And as the outer layer was lifted, the small and delicate bug that was quietly placed at the bottom of the cup leaked into the air.
