Criminal Investigation Notes

Mo Xiuxiu recalled that that day, it was the boy who came to her class to look for her on his own initiative.

He looked tall and handsome, with handsome features, except for a red birthmark on his forehead, it was almost impossible to pick out any faults.

That birthmark didn't make him look ugly, on the contrary, he had some extra traits, making him very recognizable.

He was able to say her name and said he had noticed her for a long time.

Mo Xiuxiu also met him in the school's debate competitions and recitals. She remembered how this young man talked in front of everyone. His vision and experience made her feel that he should not live in this corner of the city. .

She asked him what he came to her for, but he refused to say, and only asked her to meet outside the Rainbow Iceberg store near the school after school.

The classmates booed one after another, but Mo Xiuxiu was a little hesitant. She could feel that the reason he was looking for her had nothing to do with love.

When the young man looked at her, his eyes were clear without distracting thoughts, completely different from the greedy eyes of those men looking at her.

After school, by accident, she still went.

The two were sitting outside the smoothie shop, and the boy bought her a cheap smoothie. While the two were eating, they watched the people coming and going on the side of the road, and the boy suddenly said such a sentence.

"Let's do something amazing together."

Mo Xiuxiu did not expect that this sentence changed her life.

She only remembered that when she said these words, there was a kind of light in the eyes of the boy in front of her, which was something she had been looking for for a long time.

Mo Xiuxiu's heart was pounding, she asked curiously: "What is this shocking event."

"Before I explain it to you in detail, I hope to communicate with you. At least we must resonate with some concepts, so that we can become comrades-in-arms and go forward together."

The young man smiled and continued: "I think our life is terrible now. The bad people are not punished accordingly, the good people are not rewarded as they should be, there are loopholes in legal supervision, the gap between rich and poor is getting bigger and bigger, people's lives Busy, hopeless, everyone's money has been harvested by the house, and they have become more and more unable to change their current living conditions... Everyone is struggling and has no time to take care of themselves, let alone those of us who live in the city of thousands of households people of..."

"You know what kind of environment we live in, where we live, where we live, these two words overwhelm us all... It's like in a 1000-meter long-distance race, we run to the finish line with others, but others beat us. We were born 500 meters short, we were exhausted, but we would never be the first to reach the finish line."

"We just want to live in a stable home like everyone else, but with our strength, we can't do this..."

Speaking of this, the boy asked her: "Is your family living in an unfinished building now?"

Mo Xiuxiu looked at him and nodded. She felt a little sore in her eyes. These words reached her heart. How should I put it, she was also extremely disappointed in her life.

From childhood, it took her a long time to accept one thing.

People are born unequal.

Some people are born in a big house and have relatives to take care of them, but she lives in a narrow shack. She does not have a thick raincoat, but only a cheap umbrella. It was blown upside down, completely unable to shelter from the wind and rain.Holding such an umbrella, she was at a loss.

And her life is also in a mess, just like this umbrella that can be easily overturned by the wind, there is no happiness, only embarrassment.

She didn't have enough clothes and often went to school in half-dry underwear.Some people can sit in a cake shop and eat those delicious foods, but she can only eat smoothies made of this cheap sugar water here.

The reason for all this is not that she is not cute, she is not beautiful, and she does not study hard.Just because she was not reincarnated into a normal family, her family was poor and had no money.

Her father has disabled legs and no education, so he can only do odd jobs. Her mother is always sick and has a low IQ, and occasionally does some cleaning work.

Don't talk about making money, the family is like a bottomless pit, always tearing down the east wall to make up for the west wall, living a tight life.

That's it, when Mo Xiuxiu graduated from elementary school at the age of 12, her parents still wanted to have a boy.

Mo Xiuxiu had a big fight with her parents because of this, where would she live if she gave birth to another child?Does the whole family drink Mistral?

The mother comforted her optimistically: "We can squeeze together, the children won't take up much space, and you can also help us look after the children later."

Dad also said: "There is a boy in the family, and we will be able to support the family in the future, and we will have new hope."

Mo Xiuxiu smiled angrily and said, "I'll take care of your children for you? Children are too fragile, they're a soft ball, they're easy to fall off when you hold them, they're easy to choke when you eat, and you'll get pinched if your hands are heavy. I am not yet an adult, let me watch the children? Are you at ease?"

After hearing this, his parents showed horrified expressions, as if they didn't expect a little child to say such vicious words.

Then she comforted them: "You don't have to pin your hopes on an unborn child. When I grow up, I will support this family."

Mo Xiuxiu cried a lot afterwards, and she didn't want to tell her parents that, she felt that she had become one of those vicious elder sisters in fairy tales.She hates her ugly self.

But she couldn't understand her parents, it was enough for her to suffer here, why they still wanted to bring a baby into this world reluctantly, making everyone's life harder and making the already difficult family worse.

If they do have another child, that child will hate them when he grows up.

Later, her parents never mentioned this matter in front of her.

Maybe she should be thankful that her mother's health is not good, and she can't get pregnant even if she wants to.

After she grew up, she began to concentrate on dancing, and wanted to change all this...

She is a dance specialty student, and her tuition can be reduced by half.

Mo Xiuxiu cared more and more about those things, whether she looked good or not, whether she could dance well or not.

She is not a smart child, and her grades can only be above average when she studies hard. She does not believe that knowledge can change her destiny, but she thinks that maybe appearance and specialties can.

She likes to dance and has practiced at home since she was a child. When she wears those bright dance clothes, people will ignore the difference between her and other children.

She worked hard and seized all the opportunities she could get on stage.

For those opportunities, she can practice hard without eating or sleeping.

She is very talented in this area and has won some awards. Apart from subsidizing her family, she bought cheap cosmetics for everything else. She felt inferior and confident at the same time.

Mo Xiuxiu looked at the young man in front of her: "I agree with your point of view, I also want to change this kind of life, but how do we do it?"

"First of all, we can try to get everything back on track." The teenager narrowed his eyes as he said, "We need to find the reason for everything to stop and let those bad guys be punished."

The project of Wanhu City is like an old machine that has stopped. This machine is stuck in several places. He must first find the small stones that are stuck in the gears and eliminate the culprit that makes everything stop, and then he can start it with force. It, hit the reset button.

Mo Xiuxiu was very puzzled, she blinked her eyes: "Are you going to expose the matter to the media?"

The teenager shook his head: "Exposing these things to the media now is like throwing stones into the sea. No one will hear these voices. They may even feel that it is a waste of their time and ink. Attention."

Mo Xiuxiu said: "I tried to do a live broadcast, and I also took some videos, but the clicks were not very good."

The boy said: "That's because you didn't make good use of your capital."

Mo Xiuxiu looked at him and asked in a low voice, "What capital do I have? Apart from dancing, I can't do anything else."

The teenager said: "In the city, there are too many girls who can dance. And many girls have more resources and more opportunities." He looked at her and continued, "You are very good-looking, but it is not enough to attract people attention. Your efforts are not worth mentioning in front of capital and power."

Mo Xiuxiu lowered her head after hearing his words. Although she was a little bit unconvinced, she knew in her heart that what he said was right.

Recently, the teacher led their dance team to rehearse a dance for the leaders.In the last half month, she was suddenly switched from the middle.

Mo Xiuxiu couldn't figure it out at first, and she even cried to her teacher...

The teacher just comforted her blindly and promised to give her some compensation.

Later she heard that someone from the family of the girl who was moved to the middle had been transferred to be the leader of the Education Bureau.If we let that girl stand in the middle, when the girls are performing on stage, maybe the leaders in the audience will pay more attention to the show.

At that time, she realized that even if she tried her best and looked beautiful, at her current age, she still couldn't bridge the gap left by her original family.

This incident made her feel full of frustration.

Mo Xiuxiu was not reconciled.

Why, those who are not as hardworking and beautiful as her can stand in the center of the stage, but she can only stand in the corner, a supporting role that no one cares about even if she makes a wrong move...

Now she seems to have a chance to change all that.

Mo Xiuxiu asked the young man in front of him: "Then... besides appearance, do I have any capital that I can use?"

The boy took a sip of the smoothie and pointed it out unhurriedly: "Yes, for example, your courage, your unwillingness, your life..."

Next, the boy told her about a terrifying night.

That was daring, something no one had ever done, or even thought about.

They will usher in "death" under the eyes of everyone, and finally reveal the truth.

"We can use a lot of shooting methods, such as blood bags, such as using phosphorus to cause magic flames. As long as you cooperate with your acting skills, you can definitely confuse the fake with the real."

Mo Xiuxiu from the initial surprise and shock to the final silence

"Why did you choose me?" Mo Xiuxiu asked after thinking for a while.

The boy said: "There is something unique about you, which allows me to tell at a glance that you and I are of the same kind."

Finally, the teenager reached out to her: "How, do you want to join my plan? You will be the well-deserved heroine of the night. After this incident, you can use people's care to completely change your life. ..."

Mo Xiuxiu was moved by the heroine's words, and she was still a little worried: "Isn't it illegal to do this?"

"What law? Anyway, we are not yet adults, and no one has really died." The boy said with a smile, "We are just using this as a punishment. Through a live broadcast, let people see this society clearly and see themselves clearly."

He paused and continued: "Moreover, this is a great sacrifice. This incident can even change the entire pattern of Wanhu City, change everyone's destiny, and give everyone a brand new future."

"You just have to play the victim for one night, and after that night, you're going to be in the headlines, your pictures are going to be retweeted, your beauty is going to be noticed. People will dig Post your account, pay attention to your life, good schools, artist companies, will extend olive branches to you. There is nothing more attractive than a beautiful and innocent girl to attract people's attention."

Mo Xiuxiu looked at the young man in front of her, she couldn't describe his look, justice, tenacity, meaninglessness, combined with the smile on the corner of her mouth, it could make her forget all the injustices in this world, and she couldn't help but want to follow.

What he described was the beautiful life in her dream.

No, it seems to be better than a dream, she has never had such a beautiful dream.

She thought of a word: what can't be broken can't be built.

Instead of living like a maggot, she is willing to be a moth trying to catch the flame and take a big gamble.

It also sounds like a good thing to have the bad guys punished and the injustices brought to the fore.

Perhaps this will prompt people's attention to turn to this ruined city.

Let Wanhu City continue to be built.

And she won't really lose anything, she will survive and live better, anyway, it's just a play.

At that moment, Mo Xiuxiu turned all her unwillingness into courage. She felt like a warrior who could overcome obstacles, like a fearless person who could leave all the mundane things behind.

She put her hand in his palm, feeling the hot temperature.

She said, "Okay."

In the hospital, Mo Xiuxiu, who told the whole story, lowered her head.

After hearing her story, Joze felt angry: "How could you do such a thing?!"

Whether it is true or not, no matter what the purpose is, these students, these children, are using their lives as chips and the public as objects to be fooled.

This is cheating!This is wrong!Whether successful or not, it is extremely dangerous and may attract some imitators.

Qiao Ze was angry. He couldn't figure out how these children could be so self-respecting...

Treat your life like a child's play...

But he didn't know who to direct the anger in his heart. Is it the girl in front of him who almost died?Is it that demagogic boy?Or the one hiding behind the scenes?Or is it a world that has never been fair?

Looking at the girl who bowed her head after Yu Sheng, Qiao Ze wanted to say something, but couldn't say it.

Angry and indisputable, mourning and misfortune, such things will never happen to children in other places, but for these children in Wanhu City, they can do this kind of thing.

If there were other methods, their young lives would not be used so much.

Qiao Ze couldn't imagine, what kind of desperation and helplessness accumulated over time made them think of using their immature life as a bargaining chip to fight for something?

Su Hui was relatively calm. He knew that he had to hurry up now, so that more lives could be saved, and all this madness could be ended.He continued to ask Mo Xiuxiu: "Who was that person who was looking for you?"

In the story just now, Mo Xiuxiu has been referring to "he".

Mo Xiuxiu took a deep breath and said the boy's name: "That person is Tao Yingxu."

It was indeed Tao Yingxu.

Before Tao Yingxu and the film crew asked for all the materials, and now Mo Xiuxiu corrected him again, these are consistent with the reasoning of Su Hui and Lu Junchi.

But if he was the instigator, who was the instigator hanged on the curtain rod?

The real murderer behind the scenes, who will be the live broadcaster?

Su Hui continued to ask, "Is he also the one who executed you?"

Mo Xiuxiu nodded her head.

Both Su Hui and Qiao Ze knew in their hearts that this was impossible.

Just now, Lu Junchi had sent a message that the forensic doctor had just rushed to the scene of Tao Yingxu's death, and had confirmed that the body belonged to Tao Yingxu himself, and had also measured the liver temperature, excluding the air-conditioning factor, the time of death was at least three hours The above is before the live broadcast starts.

He can't be on the live broadcast.

The boy who planned and arranged the whole plan had died at this time.

Someone continued to implement this plan, and changed the method, and the originally planned suspended animation has now become a reality.

Su Hui judged that Mo Xiuxiu really didn't know this, otherwise she wouldn't have told such an easily exposed lie.

Qiao Ze found Tao Yingxu's ID photo and showed it to Mo Xiuxiu: "Are you sure it's him?"

Mo Xiuxiu blinked and said: "I'm sure, he was the one who talked to me before, saying that he wanted to arouse social reflection through this live broadcast... He said that he would arrange everything and design all the details , He asked me to choose a way of death that I like, I like swimming very much, so I chose to drown. From now on, I just need to be an actor and perform with all my heart.”

The way of death is everyone's choice, so the way of execution is different.

The kids had just shot a documentary, and they treated the live broadcast as a filming performance.

Mo Xiuxiu continued: "I have been waiting for him in that room since I came out of school this afternoon. When the time was almost up, he came, blindfolded me, and put my hand Also stick to..."

Su Hui asked, "Is he any different from usual?"

Mo Xiuxiu recalled: "He wore a mask today, saying that he was afraid that he would accidentally sweep his face during the live broadcast, and he also used a voice-changing microphone. But I saw his birthmark, oh, yes, he His voice was hoarse, and he told me he had a cold."

It sounded like the murderer was a man who was similar in height and build to Tao Yingxu.

"Is he the only one?" Su Hui still remembered the girl reflected in the fish tank.

Mo Xiuxiu said: "There is also a thin girl who is his assistant."

It sounds like the girl was an accomplice, hiding in a corner the whole time and not appearing in the camera, so it may be that she assisted in completing the third live broadcast.

"Can you recognize her?"

Mo Xiuxiu shook her head, "I haven't seen her before, today is the first time I saw this person, and I haven't seen her face, she has been hiding in the corner. I only saw her wearing A uniform from our school, probably a freshman in high school."

Su Hui coughed a few times, organized his thoughts, and continued to ask Mo Xiuxiu: "Have you practiced this process before?"

Mo Xiuxiu nodded: "After putting the fish tank in place, we tried it twice. Last Wednesday and Friday night respectively, we measured the injection time of water, and he also told me how to pretend to choke and how to struggle It will be more realistic..."

The familiar environment and the process of repeated trials have weakened the children's sense of fear...

"How were those people selected? For example, the man you corresponded to, Lian Chengyan."

"Tao Yingxu chose it. He said he guaranteed that those people were guilty...I don't know where he found out about those people's crimes."

"Do you know how many people participated in the live broadcast tonight? Who are the others?"

Mo Xiuxiu shook her head in a little confusion: "He didn't tell me these things, he has been contacting me unilaterally all this time."

When she said this, she looked at Su Hui: "I have confessed everything. I... I am not the mastermind. These things were all designed by Tao Yingxu. I just cooperated with acting. I admit that we shouldn't use this method, no It should be a prank, but our intentions are good, shouldn't those bad guys be punished?"

Up to now, the girl still doesn't know what kind of bad impact and consequences the incident has had.

The ward was silent for a while, and Qiao Ze looked at her with pity.

"...No one will really die, right?" Mo Xiuxiu tried her best to laugh, her voice was a little trembling, and tears welled up in her eyes, "You guys lied to me, right?"

Su Hui coughed a few times, his handsome face showed a kind of indifference, and he said hoarsely, "We don't have time to lie to you."

The smile on Mo Xiuxiu's face gradually narrowed. It turned out that those were really not pranks or exercises, and everything was not as beautiful as he promised her at the beginning. She asked tremblingly, "Are they really dead?"

Su Hui said in a deep voice: "Your actions are not innocent. They have disturbed the social order and violated the law. Someone died tonight, and Tao Yingxu is also dead. The person you saw before was not him. We We are hurrying to find out the truth, so you'd better think about who else that person might be."

Mo Xiuxiu's gaze straightened, and she cried out with a wow. The tears couldn't stop flowing. Only then did she know what she had faced tonight.

A perverted murderer was sitting opposite her at that time, watching the water rise little by little, and then prepared to drown her.She brushed shoulders with death.

The overwhelming sense of dread, like a monster eating her sanity, is more real than any show.

She was in a daze before she agreed to do such a thing. Now she was frightened for a while, until her whole stomach was convulsed, making her want to vomit.

She almost died, and not only that, if that person did something else while she was tied up and blindfolded... She would be powerless to stop, unable to resist.

"It's not him tonight? It's impossible..." Mo Xiuxiu cried, "I...I don't know, he...he looks like Tao Yingxu, he's the same height, he even has a voice like...I... …I don't know who he could be."

She wiped her tears and said, "I remembered something again. I asked Tao Yingxu why he came up with this plan when planning all this before. He mentioned that he has a friend..."
