track criminals

They went to the local public security bureau and first communicated with the criminal police in charge of the case.

"Lin Qi's mother is here, do you want to talk to her?"

They nodded, walked towards the middle-aged woman on the seat in the corridor, and handed her a glass of warm water.

"Hello, we are criminal psychology profilers who came to assist in the investigation, and I would like to know more about the situation from you." Ying Shen said politely.

As soon as she mentioned her passed away daughter, as a mother, her eyes turned red, her lips trembled, and her expression was sad and painful, "Qiqi has always been very obedient and filial, why would someone treat her like this...she is, and there are so many I haven't tried it before, I want to see her marry a good family and have a lovely child of her own..."

Shen Wenqin lowered his eyes, pursed his lips, and said softly: "I understand your feelings, that's why I have to find out the murderer who caused her so far, and let her rest in peace. Before the incident happened, was there anything wrong with Lin Qi, or I met a stranger, who did I have a conflict with?"

Mother Lin lowered her head and wiped away her tears with a tissue, then raised her face, and said with restraint: "No, she has a very good personality and gets along well with her classmates. She won't offend anyone, let alone talk to strangers casually. For a while, she was preparing to participate in the school's art festival competition with her classmates, and danced on stage. She danced beautifully, picked out her clothes, and was full of confidence to win an award. She also acted like a baby with me because of this, saying that she always wanted to have a pet. Dog, I want it if I win the prize this time. She always begged me to say that I really want it, but I couldn’t hold her back. Before the competition, I went to the shelter with her to pick up a dog and brought it home. She was very happy, but she Something happened after I went for a walk with the dog... I shouldn't have..."

As he spoke, tears burst out again uncontrollably.

Ying deeply comforted: "You are not wrong about this matter, you just want to satisfy your child's wishes, don't blame yourself."

He took out a transparent evidence bag, which was the first evidence sample at the scene of the crime, and was thrown on the leash of the pet dog beside Lin Qi.

"Please identify it, is this the rope that Lin Qi bought for the pet dog?"

Mother Lin nodded with tears in her eyes, thinking of her daughter again.

"Did the dog come home after the incident?"

Mother Lin shook her head, with tears on her face, leaned forward unconsciously, and urgently said dissatisfiedly: "Why do you keep asking questions about dogs? Shouldn't you investigate the murderer who killed my daughter?!"

"We are investigating now to find out the murderer's purpose, which will help us further identify the suspect's identity." Ying Shen's eyes were calm and peaceful, with a soothing power, and he said methodically, "At first, we thought that the pet The dog ran away in the chaos, but you see, the collar was obviously cut off, and based on the circumstances at the time, it is likely that the murderer took it away."

Lin's mother only wanted to find the murderer who killed her daughter, and she wished to get rid of him quickly. Under the strong emotion of grief and anger, she suddenly widened her eyes and couldn't help raising her voice, "So what! Can this dog Call to tell you where the murderer is?! You said the purpose, could the murderer still kill my daughter for a dog?!"

She stood up, couldn't control her emotions and yelled, then covered her mouth, turned her back, bowed her head and wept silently.

"The reason has not been found yet, but we will do our best to investigate the case, and we will inform you as soon as we have news, I assure you."

Ying Shen and Shen Wenqin comforted Mother Lin for a while, then turned and left, discussing in a low voice.

"Do you really think the suspect killed people for dogs?" Shen Wenqin asked.

"Besides, there is no suspicious reason for Lin Qi to be targeted at the moment. There must be a demon if something goes wrong. Generally speaking, everyone thinks that it is not enough to take someone's life for a pet, but now you might as well try to investigate from this direction. .” You should deeply hold this point of view.

They drove to the stray dog ​​rescue station where Lin Qi went, and showed the person in charge a photo of the pet dog.

"Sorry, we don't have very detailed records here. I'll ask who has an impression of this dog."

Not long after, the person in charge brought two young volunteers.

One of them said: "We have been taking care of this Labrador in turn, but it didn't take long. In about three days, someone was interested in adopting it."

"Look, is it this girl?" Shen Wenqin showed them Lin Qi's photo.

"Yes, just a week ago, I still remember very clearly that she was very happy when she chose. There are not many stray dogs like this Labrador in good health and cute. Rescue station Many small animals here are rescued from pet hospitals, roadside garbage dumps, and even slaughterhouses, and they have injuries.” When the volunteers mentioned this, their tone couldn’t help becoming annoyed, and they were very angry with these small animals, “ Since you want to keep pets, you should treat them as family members, take care of them carefully, and throw them away at will when you get tired of them, what is the difference from killing lives!"

Ying Shen looked at the puppies around, most of them were injured to varying degrees, they would shrink back and hide when they saw people, barking vigilantly.He took a deep look before turning his head and continuing to ask: "Is there any news about the owner of this dog?"

"No, we have checked carefully, and there is no proof of ownership such as a collar, so it was sent here by a kind passer-by, otherwise the person who encountered it would have contacted its owner to pick it up. This is very common, It was abandoned by the master."

Shen Wenqin grasped the key point, "A kind passer-by? Didn't your staff rescue him?"

"No, this Labrador was sent by a teenager."

"What kind of boy? Do you remember what he looked like?"

"Well... this is more difficult. He is shy and introverted. When he came, he kept his head down and didn't like to talk. I greeted him and he ignored me. He just hugged Labrador and kept touching. I Seeing that he liked the dog so much, I asked him why he didn't raise it himself. There are so many stray dogs in the rescue station that can't take care of them. If no one adopts them, they might be disposed of. He shook his head desperately, I don't know His family does not provide for him, and he is still opposing the handling."

"Was that boy present when the Labrador was adopted?" Ying Shen asked.

The volunteer was surprised: "How do you know? Since he sent the Labrador here, he has come here every day as a volunteer, taking care of the dogs in the rescue station. Although he doesn't communicate with us very much, he cares about the dogs The dogs are really patient, even we can’t compare to him, he doesn’t care about his own injuries when he gets scratched, so he just calms down the dogs first.”

Ying Shen and Shen Wenqin looked at each other and asked again, "Is he still here?"

"Speaking of which, after he was adopted from Labrador, he didn't come back." The volunteers looked a little regretful, because they were really short of manpower.

"At that time, was there anything unusual about his performance?"

"I kept staring at that girl, and seemed to be muttering something wrong."

"What do you mean?"

The volunteer guessed: "Maybe she was worried that the girl could not raise a dog well. After all, the girl has no experience. Although there is a saying that raising a child is not like raising a cat or a dog, raising a pet is not an easy task. You need to be prepared. There are a lot of things, and it is not impossible to feed them the wrong food and die if they are not careful, it needs people to really take care of them."

Shen Wenqin asked: "Are there any records of teenagers?"

The person in charge replied: "Yes, but it should be of little use to you."

Open the booklet that records the entry and exit personnel, and one line reads - Wangcai.

The expressions of the crowd became a little indescribable.

The volunteer said: "This is the name he gave the Labrador. I think he really likes it. He just came to help, so he didn't ask too much."

"The contact information..." Naturally, it was even more impossible.

The volunteer really shook his head.

Ying Shen and Shen Wenqin said, "Thank you for your cooperation. If you remember any more details about them, please call the police station."

They nodded.

Back at the police station, when walking through the lobby, a middle-aged woman grabbed the hand of a female police officer and kept saying something with tears in her eyes. I could vaguely hear words like beg you and help.

"Another case happened?" Shen Wenqin frowned.As long as you are a normal person, you don't want cases to happen repeatedly.

The police officer explained: "No, her daughter is missing. She comes to the police station every day, but we have searched for more than half a month, but there is no result. I contacted the TV station to broadcast a missing person notice, and sent people to pay more attention to all possible places. But now such a murder case happens again, the police force is insufficient..." Naturally, there are very few people who can be assigned to handle the disappearance case.

Ying Shen and the others nodded. They could understand the grief of the family members, but they also knew what they should do. After listening to it, they just knew about it.

At this time, the middle-aged woman pushed away the policewoman's hand, strode in, staggered, and shouted hoarsely: "My daughter has been missing for a month, why don't you help me find her?!"

Ying Shen paused, frowned, suddenly turned to look at her, and asked, "Your daughter disappeared a month ago? Where is it?"
