Daqing Criminal Division

Afterwards, Duan Xiao opened the letter from Chuzhou and read it.

In the letter, the man named Zhang Ji claimed to be a chief of government officials. He was originally a clerk under the name of Su Dinghai, the prefect of Chuzhou, and had been in charge of local criminal investigations for many years.

Because he has been in the industry for many years, that Zhang Gibbon is also a seasoned catcher who rarely misses.

When he was young, he heard that he had solved several famous and famous cases, but who would have thought that just two months ago, in his decades of police career, he encountered a strange case that was quite rare in ten years.

Originally, Zhang Ji didn't know the two of them, but now he suddenly thought of writing this letter to Fuchaerji and Duan Xiao.

It was also because he happened to have heard about the Stone Bodhisattva case in Songjiang Mansion.

The fact that Guan Peng was miraculously arrested in Songyang because of a method called psychological profiling has been spread in every prefecture and county.

He heard their names and seemed to be very good at this kind of special homicide cases, so he wanted to rescue them.

From the handwriting in front of me, it can be seen that the letter was written in a hurry.

Duan Xiao could tell that this was a dismemberment case, and the attached portrait of a female corpse that roughly described her death was the first victim discovered a month ago.

——In the case of the female corpse in red sleeping shoes, the small red characters with the official seal on the bottom of the file are clearly visible.

It is said that when the government officials salvaged her from the mud at the bottom of the river.

The surface of the body was so decomposed that it was difficult to identify who she was.

Because when she died, she was wearing a pair of small red sleeping shoes on her feet, and she still had two-inch long red nails with the juice of impatiens flower juice on her fingers, so the Chuzhou government called her by this name.

In the letter, Zhang Ji said that in this murder case in Chuzhou, the number of victims so far has accumulated to four in less than a month.

The three other victims who died tragically elsewhere later were all young women like the first victim.

They didn't know each other, and they had nothing to do with each other before.

Because of the usual murders, even if the murderer kills, there are few cruel methods such as dismembering others, so this case is very different from ordinary murders at first glance.

All the women in the families of the people in Chuzhou are in danger because of this, and they only hope that the real murderer can be arrested and brought to justice as soon as possible.

At the end of this letter, Zhang Ji, who has been an official post for 30 to [-] years, also said.

If the two of them are willing to come to help and finally solve this case, the state government will welcome it.

In addition, the government was offering a huge reward to arrest the murderer, so no matter whether the case can be finally solved or not, I just hope Mr. Detective and Wu Zuo can come and take a look in person, and he will definitely remember their great kindness for the rest of his life.

This letter was not so much a plea for help, it was more like a letter from them because they had no other choice, and it came really suddenly.

But the behavior of the serial killer mentioned in the letter sounds a bit strange, so this case also attracted Duan Xiao's attention.

It's just that since another case happened, it meant that he couldn't continue to rest, so he turned his head, and Duan Xiao also told someone about it.

I also heard that there was a case from the other side of Chuzhou, and there was no one in the early morning, and Fucha Erji, who came out later, was rarely interested.

"Chuzhou, the red shoe dismemberment case?"

At that time, Fuchaerzi was lazily lying on his arm in front of the book case on the attic of the detective studio.

Duan Xiao was sitting opposite him, and the two of them didn't say a word for a while, there was a dilapidated screen between them, as for a certain person, he was leaning on the chair, and no one was looking at the letter in his hand. .

Previously, Duan Xiao hadn't had a deep understanding of what kind of person Fucharji was.

Now, he and this person have become a temporary cohabitant in a sense, and he realizes that Fucharzi is actually weirder than he imagined in private.

Do not light the lights at night and do not open the windows during the day.

There are no windows on the four sides of the Detective Studio, and the room is a bit dark, and only an incense stick is barely lit in the room to tell the time from time to time.

Especially, the other party has been so slovenly all day long that even his originally handsome and upright face looks like a lifeless cripple, which is really not like a normal person.

Fortunately, a few days ago, the two of them cleaned up the attic where they would live under the same roof for at least a whole year.

They each drew out their own land, because the land deeds left by Liu Tongtian and Yan belonged to them, so Duan Xiao actually currently owns part of the right to live in this detective studio.

Right now, the entire investigative room is used by the two of them separately.

The two of them had made an agreement before that they would never touch each other's things unless necessary, and they would never care what each other wanted to do.

Fucharzi's things are still in place upstairs.

Therefore, his pile of tools and books for solving crimes and murders are also placed on the ancient shelf upstairs.

From now on, Duan Xiao will live downstairs. The downstairs is full of autopsy tools and books. There is also a small room with bright sides, which is for the little guy Duan Yuanbao.

Duan Yuanbao has always been a good boy, so he will not cause any trouble to the two adults.

It is also for this reason that although Fucharzi did not express any opinion on the arrival of the father and son from the beginning to the end, he also accepted the two extra living people out of thin air.

At this moment, someone who has been weird all day is holding the letter, leaning against the back of the chair and reading down word by word.

It was also this scene that Duan Xiao saw in his eyes. Detective Fucha, who realized what he should say, moved away the letter that had been covering his face, and discussed with Duan Xiao again.

"Dismemberment case? The cause of death is strange? What is the cause of death?"

"I don't know. This Zhang Ji said that he can only say it after going there in person. The yamen can't disclose the case to others indiscriminately."

Adhering to the attitude of the two of them talking about business affairs, Duan Xiao also answered him.

"Four people have died, and we can't disclose it in detail? How can people help?"

"If you don't want to go, you can refuse."

"Go, why don't you go, the more this kind of case seems to hide some secret, the more curious it is, especially this kind of case that ordinary people can't solve. Isn't this just an extra chance to find out what strange cases there are in this world? what?"

Detective Fucha, who always wanted to contradict others, said this again.

"However, speaking of it, why did he... specifically ask me to go with you by name?"

Fucharzi seemed to really not understand this question.

But just now when Duan Xiao went out to the yamen, he met Zha Keshan, and it was only after he inquired about the situation in the Xiachu state capital that the head of the police station answered him.

"Haha! You don't even know, Duan Xiao! The story of you and Fucha Erji has spread to all the prefectures and prefectures. The storytellers in the Songyang area have compiled the story into a storybook, let alone Chuzhou. Now everyone knows that you guys solved the Shitou Bodhisattva case together, so Detective Fucha and Duan Wuzuo will naturally be compared together and brought up from time to time hahaha..."

Duan Xiao: "..."

This sudden news does not sound very cheerful at all.

Duan Wuzuo's heart sank, and he wondered who spread such strange rumors, and spread them all the way from Songyang to Zhouzhou.

So at this moment, facing Fuchaerzi's problem, Duan Wuzuo, who actually knew the reason but refused to have anything to do with this person, opened his mouth decisively.

Duan Xiao: "I don't know, but next time you can ask others to write your and Zakeshan's names together."

Fucharzi: "Hey, why did Zakshan and I write together, why didn't you write together with him."

Duan Xiao: "It doesn't matter if I write with him, it doesn't matter if I write with some people."

Fucharzi: "Oh, so Duan Wuzuo wants to quarrel with me on purpose this early in the morning, right?"

They had just moved in together, and these two guys who were trying to squeeze each other out didn't want to be polite to each other at all.

Poor Zakshan didn't know that he was just an innocent victim of being picked on by these two guys, and even sneezed several times in the yamen a few miles away.

But it's noisy, since it's a serious matter this time, I came to the door.

Afterwards, the two agreed on whether to go to the state capital to investigate the case of the dead woman in red sleeping shoes at the request of Zhang Ji, the state policeman.

Fucha Erji said, he will go, as long as there is a special case, he will definitely go, Duan Xiao guessed that he would say that early in the morning, and there is no surprise.

However, this state capital is not too far from Songyang, and it only takes two or three days for the two of them to go there.

Therefore, in order to avoid repeated trips on the road, Duan Xiao temporarily sent Duan Yuanbao to Zha Keshan in the yamen this time, and then went out to investigate the case with his temporary 'partner'.

Two days later.

After Duan Xiao took care of everything in Yizhuang, he set off with Fucha Erji.

When they went, it happened to be a sunny day in Songyang County.

In the investigation room, I packed up my luggage temporarily, and I was obviously going out to investigate a major murder case in Chuzhou, but it was more casual than anyone else. Mr. Detective and Mr. Wu Zuo just asked for documents from Ma County Magistrate, and set off together Went to the state capital.

This case will be a case that Duan Xiao will often think of when he thinks about it alone in the future.

At this moment, the boat has a long way to go, and he and the person next to him, each with a box, set off right there.

The road ahead is unknown, but it has opened a path of sunshine between the two with the force of the sky.

The mountains and rivers are far away, with white clouds and gray dogs, and the whole world is under your feet.

……

Because this time I went to Zhouzhou, I chose to go on land.

In Duan Xiao's past impressions, Chuzhou is located in Zhejiang, facing the water, most of the people make a living by doing business and weaving, it is a water town with simple folk customs and few incidents.

According to what Zha Keshan told him before, the magistrate's surname is Su, and his name is Su Dinghai. This magistrate named Su Dinghai has a good reputation in this area, and Chuzhou is also a place well-known in all prefectures and prefectures.

Fuchaerzi and Duan Xiao are not the kind of people who procrastinate.

So I found a carriage, and calculated the expenses for going out to investigate the case, and these two people who were very quick in everything they did were on the road.

On the way, compared to other people, these two people are like two partners who are used to business affairs.

Basically, they didn't make any extra pauses in the middle, and even looking for a post to rest, they looked like they only thought of each other when they were talking about business.

Duan Xiao thinks this way is good.

The two don't interfere with each other, and they won't get in the way of each other when they want to do whatever they want, so he gets along as if he and someone are purely partners.

However, because of the past, I always like to be alone.

This was the first time he experienced the feeling of investigating a case with another person.

In the case of the Stone Bodhisattva before, he and Fucha Erji had a basic understanding of each other, but this time, he didn't know whether they would be able to go as smoothly as last time.

Fortunately, Fucharzi obviously had the same idea as him.

Because each has a past and secrets that they don't want to tell others, this second time the two partners are also guarding against each other as usual, so the two of them mostly don't take the initiative to communicate, but try to avoid it as much as possible.

Such two people are really a strange pair that is hard to find in the world.

It was also after the two of them passed Zhaoshui and arrived outside the city gate of Chuzhou Capital.

In the early morning, Zhang Ji said in his letter that the Yamen of Chuzhou would receive them, so on the day when the two men who had written back informing them that they would come arrived at the local area, one person came to the Yamen.

This man looked like a young policeman, with a simple and simple appearance, with a pair of big ears, and he looked like a kind-hearted person.

He claimed that his surname was Ma, and his name was Ma Zixiu.

This year is only [-] years old, seeing the two of them first come to the state, but their attitude is very polite and respectful.

He only said that he was a half-apprentice of the old policeman Zhang Ji, and he was also working in the Chuzhou government. Today, because the policeman Zhang Ji was still in the yamen, he had been waiting for the two of them for a long time, and now he is still there. After preparing the meals, you can entertain the detective and Mr. Wu Zuo to your heart's content.

The calls of Mr. Detective and Mr. Wu Zuo were kind and simple.

It was also these three people who first entered the city together to find a place to stay, and Ma Zixiu quickly found another teahouse and led the two of them around Chuzhou.

Because they came here to handle the case, Fucha Erji and Duan Xiao naturally knew how to measure.

Especially now that they are civilians and the other party is an official, it is still necessary to show some sense of propriety when working for the government.

Seeing this, Ma Zixiu was fine, he seemed to be very kind to others, and he was willing to talk to them about everything.

Such a person was impossible to pick.

But no matter what, Fucharji is 1 unreliable at first glance, so both of them noticed that the other seemed to be a little hesitant in the process. Duan Xiao came to do it.

"Thank you, Captain Ma. We are newcomers this time, and we don't know the situation in the state capital. But since we are here to investigate the case, why don't you let us see the situation of the case first? Before this, we heard in the letter Said, this is a strange case, but, what is so strange about this case?"

When asking this question, Duan Xiao wanted to see the scene or the corpse first.

He used to be a person with great manners and integrity in his behavior and conduct. As soon as he opened his mouth, people could feel that his words were reasonable and decent, and he was a person who made people feel good.

Ma Zixiu was a little hesitant, but when he heard this, his expression turned pale.

Seeing this, Fuchaerzi and Duan Xiao seemed to see something wrong, and looked at each other calmly.

Who would have thought that next, Ma Zixiu, who looked sad and obviously worried, told them one thing himself, and it was also this thing that made Fucha Erji and Duan Xiao suddenly pay attention.

"So what do you mean now, the case of the dead woman with red shoes in this state capital is an...'impossible crime'?"
