Be in low spirits

Chapter 9 The Female Corpse

Kong Zhixi squatted on the sofa at night, looking at the darkness outside the French window, and couldn't fall asleep for a long time. This Fu Yan has never been contacted, this Li Li inexplicably only speaks half of the words, this forensic doctor is still a half-baked one, and there is also Xiao Zhao, who has never seen the real person, sitting in the corner of the office typing on the keyboard. The police station has neither professional equipment nor enough professional criminal investigation, and even the manpower is so limited, and the protagonist is not very smart.

She stood up, turned on the light of the painting on the mural, and studied the layout of the city. The city is surrounded by mountains and a river in the middle. The gap between the rich and the poor is very obvious. As she was studying, Li Li's voice suddenly came from behind her: "What are you doing?" She was so scared that her legs suddenly went weak and she fell to the ground. She cursed subconsciously, but she didn't dare to get angry at Li Li. After all, he was her boss. She stood up, patted her knees, took a deep breath, turned around and said: "Just... I can't sleep, let's take a look." Li Li covered his mouth, trying to hide his smile, but his eyes still betrayed him.

"Oh." He pretended to be calm and picked up the cup, trying to pour water. "Why did you sleep on that chair this morning?" He pretended to take a sip of water and asked casually.

"I had a nightmare last night, so I just...sat there and waited for dawn." She couldn't understand the temper of this rich second-generation man, and she didn't dare to lose her temper.

"How about you... come and sleep at my place. I'll sleep on the sofa." He suddenly became polite again.

"No, I can't sleep with the smell of strangers around."

"Pah!" Li Li put down the cup heavily and went back to his room without looking back. Stranger, in her eyes he was still a stranger!

This sound startled Kong Zhixi again. How could this man change his attitude faster than turning the pages of a book? She felt that she really didn't understand men or bosses. Being a worker was really hard.

In the morning, Kong Zhixi followed Li Li's buttocks, and the two sat in the office staring at each other. Li Li suddenly remembered the pile of file boxes in the trunk, moved them to her, threw them in front of her, and said, "Here, take a look."

Kong Zhixi glanced at him sideways, but still didn't dare to lose her temper. "Oh~"

"Hello, is this where we surrender?" a soft female voice came from the door. They both looked towards the door, and saw a fair-skinned girl standing at the door. She looked to be about 20 years old, wearing a sun hat on her head, a floral dress under a denim jacket, curly hair tied in a low ponytail, looking very lazy, like a harmless girl next door.

Kong Zhixi thought that the self-confession she mentioned was probably just some petty theft or harmless things, and this might be her new friend in the game. So, she diligently brought her a stool. "Don't worry, sit down and talk slowly." She didn't care about the pile of file boxes, and her eyes were only on this new character.

"Pour her a glass of water." Li Li tapped her with the back of his hand, and her eyes turned from the girl to find the glass of water.

"Tell me slowly, why are you turning yourself in?" Li Li also pulled a chair and sat down in front of the little girl. Kong Zhixi poured some water and echoed, "Yes, tell me slowly, what are you turning yourself in for?" She handed the water to Li Li and put her hand on his shoulder.

"My name is Li Jing. I'm 23 years old. I'm a student at the university in Vocational City. I work as an administrator in the school library, working part-time while studying." The girl seemed a little scared, and her voice was still thin.

Li Li shrugged, signaled Kong Zhixi to sit down with a look, and threw the notebook and pen in his hand to her. She didn't know why Li Li was angry, but she couldn't get angry, so she could only do as he said. She also pulled a stool and sat opposite the girl, writing down the information the girl had just said with a pen, then looked up and said to the girl: "And then?"

"I'm an orphan. I have a man who sponsors me. He sends me some living expenses every month. Sometimes... sometimes he comes to see me when he's free." She began to feel a little embarrassed. When she mentioned this man, she seemed to feel a little ashamed.

Kong Zhixi noticed it, she looked at Li Li and said, "How about you step aside for a while?" Li Li looked at her, then at the girl, stood up and walked out of the office.

"Every time he comes, he forces me to do things I don't want to do. Last time he came, I didn't want to cooperate with him anymore, so we had an argument, and then, I accidentally pushed him down, and his head hit the bathroom, and then... then he died." She started crying as she spoke.

Kong Zhixi couldn't bear to see girls cry, so she quickly wiped her tears with her hands. "Don't cry, don't cry, it's okay, it's not necessarily your fault."

She found a tissue and handed it to the girl to help her calm down. She wanted to continue questioning, but Li Li pushed the door open with a man and said, "This is her guardian, here to pick her up." When Li Jing saw the man, he panicked and hid behind Kong Zhixi, grabbing her hand, looking very nervous.

"She suffered some mental stimulation in the past, so she has paranoid delusions. This is the certificate from the hospital." The man handed the certificate to Kong Zhixi. Kong Zhixi looked at the certificate and then looked at Li Li. Li Li nodded at her, motioning her to let her go.

Although Kong Zhixi had doubts about the certificate and what the girl said, it seemed that she had no choice but to let the man go. Although the man had left with her, Kong Zhixi was still very worried and felt very uncomfortable in the office.

Li Li felt a little uneasy, as there were still many unsolved cases on the table. He knocked on the pile of information to try to attract her attention, but it was completely useless.

It was not until his mobile phone showed a message that a female corpse had appeared by the river that he pulled Kong Zhixi and hurried to the riverside.

Kong Zhixi looked at the female corpse sitting by the river. She was dressed neatly, with gorgeous makeup on. Her ankles were tied to the legs of a stool with ropes. The way she died was similar to that of the Mensao Sister, except for the hole on her forehead. "It looks like she was shot dead." Li Li spoke first.

Kong Zhixi just nodded and didn't respond. The body was packed and sent to the forensic room. Old Sui showed up just in time. Li Li and Kong Zhixi were still at the scene, trying to find some clues. The body was still frozen. When the body was found, it was still leaking water, even under the seat.

The person who reported the case said that he found it when he was fishing here in the morning, so he reported the case. Kong Zhixi asked Li Li to ask Xiao Zhao about the identity of the person who reported the case. The information Xiao Zhao gave indicated that this person was indeed here to fish and had no direct relationship with the victim.

Kong Zhixi couldn't figure it out. If the setting of this game is that when the obsession disappears, the body disappears as well, then why are these corpses standing here? Why did the murderer go to such great lengths to kill people? If they can solve their obsessions and let them disappear on their own, wouldn't it be possible without anyone noticing?

Li Li watched her turn around and around on the chair, thinking she had thought of something, so he asked, "Did you figure it out?"

"Hmm~ It seems like something is missing. Did Xiao Zhao give us his identity information?" Kong Zhixi was still walking around the chair trying to find something.

"Not yet. What are you looking for?" Li Li came over and helped look for it.

"Don't you notice that there seems to be something missing from that woman?"

"So... what's missing?"

"I don't know, but I'll know when I see it."

Suddenly, she lay down and shouted, "Found it, it's the earring." Then she picked up the earring and showed it to him.

"So what?" Li Li took the earring and put it in the bag.

"Don't you think this case is very similar to the case of Sister Mensao?"

"You doubt? But the case is over." Li Li expressed his doubt.

"Yes, that's why it's even weirder." Kong Zhixi also felt it was a little weird.

"There is no evidence to show that the two cases are related. Let's go back and see if Old Sui has any clues." Li Li looked at the rising sun and felt that staying here seemed to be of no use.
