Mo Bei asked Gong Xiaobai to send Wei Yuxuan home, and he and Xia Duo went to the criminal police team with He Lanshan.Although both Gong Xiaobai and Wei Yuxuan were dissatisfied with his decision, they both knew that at least the two of them had no choice but to obey because they didn't want to shake Mo Bei's will.He Lanshan couldn't help but glanced at Gong Xiaobai meaningfully, and got Gong Dahunzi's unrefined supercilious look.

He Lanshan laid out the key evidence of the two cases in front of Mo Bei with an astonishing confession. In fact, as soon as he took out the photos of the scene, Xia Duo subconsciously raised his hand to cover Mo Bei's eyes.

Mo Bei blinked, his eyelashes brushed against Xia Duo's palm, itching.He patted Xia Duo's leg lightly, but Xia Duo didn't move.Mo Bei's hand on his leg moved a little, and then kneaded gently.

Xia Duo's face turned red quickly, and he quickly let go of the hand covering his eyes.Facing Xia Duo's complaining gaze, Mo Bei stuck out the tip of his tongue mischievously, and then looked through the photos of the scene and related files with a serious face.

The victim of the first case was a little girl who was only four years old.

The little girl disappeared in the vegetable market.At that time, the young mother had just tried her best to get the vegetable vendor to give her a handful of coriander on the basis of [-] cents less, when she lowered her head and found that the child who had been following her feet was gone.

The vegetable market was full of people, and there were many undisciplined children running around playing. The young mother thought that her daughter had gone to play with other children, and she was so cruel that she would give her a good beating when she found her child. Ass, let her know what will happen if she is playful and disobedient.But before that, she wanted to buy all the ingredients while she didn't have children as a burden, and by the way, she could also go to the shoe repair stall outside the market and nail the new pair of leather shoes on the heels of her feet.

God knows how tired she is every day because she has to do housework in order to take care of the children!The last time I had my hair permed was ten months ago!I have worked so hard, but my child is still naughty and disobedient!Often she didn't know where to play if she didn't see it at a glance, and she had to make adults worry for a long time before she came back mad and sweaty.This child will go to heaven if he doesn't teach him a lesson!

An hour later, the young mother ran in and out of the vegetable market many times wearing the new leather shoes with the heels nailed on, but the child was still not found.Only then did the vegetable vendor say evasively, as if he saw a man taking a little girl away, but because the child was not crying, he thought it was the child's father, so he kept silent.

The young mother was at a loss, and was worried about being scolded by her husband and mother-in-law, so she secretly told her natal family and asked them to help find the child.This dragged on for several hours, and finally the matter could not be concealed anymore, so she had to tell her husband in tears, and called the police under the reminder of others.

The child was found the next day.

Unfortunately, all that was found was the body of the child.

The child is fixed on an oil canvas, and the oil canvas is fixed on the mottled wall by a picture frame. From a distance, it looks like a sketch of a character with a different style.

The little girl was wearing a new red dress, the skirt was fluffy like a blooming flower, two snow-white slender legs protruded straight out from under the skirt, and she wore a pair of round-toed lace-up little red leather shoes on her little feet.Her black slightly curly hair spread out, as if floating in the water.The child's little hands are crossed in front of the chest, as if angrily declaring "NO!".

The murderer also nailed many unknown small purple wild flowers around the corpse, dotted around, decorating the cruel murder scene into an illusory dream.

Abandoned house surrounded by weeds.Well-dressed baby corpse.This scene almost perfectly reproduced the scene at the beginning of Mo Bei's novel "The Death of Narcissus". What is discordant is that the murderer deliberately wrote the novel on the other wall with red oil paint for some unknown purpose. A sentence in the book: "It begins with innocence and ends with a lie."

The victim of the second case was a person known to both Mo Bei and Xia Duo, Lu Xiaoyan.

The murderer hastily discarded Lu Xiaoyan's drowned body by the river. His carefree attitude was not at all as meticulous as that of the little girl in the previous case, so that when the body was found, the plump left thigh had already It was mutilated by wild dogs.

The reason why the police connected the two cases was that in Lu Xiaoyan's pocket was a piece of homework paper wrapped in several layers of plastic bags, which read, "Everyone hopes that they can spend their lives in peace and joy. The unfortunate who want to be in the headlines of society have nothing to do with them. The unfortunate think so too."

This passage comes from Mo Bei's novel "The Missing Case of a Freshman Girl".

Lu Xiaoyan is a freshman girl.

He Lanshan looked at Xia Duo who was stiff all over with sympathy. It was indeed not a pleasant experience to see a classmate he was familiar with being brutally murdered and abandoned. He expressed his affection.For any adolescent, this will probably leave an extremely sad memory.

Mo Bei put the photos of Lu Xiaoyan upside down on the table, and one hand hung down to hold Xia Duo's cold fingers.Xia Duo looked up suddenly, smiled at Mo Bei, and sighed softly.

He Lanshan stared at the two boys thoughtfully. Something seemed to flash through his mind, but before he could figure it out, he saw Mo Bei curling up his fingers and tapping twice on the table. His attention was drawn back.

Immediately, He Lanshan was stunned for a moment. His years of police career made him very good at hiding his heart. Few people could see through his thoughts through his facial expressions or some small movements, let alone the time when he was distracted just now. Short, did this little boy actually find out?Perhaps, just a coincidence?For example, did he do some small movements to attract attention before speaking?He Lanshan thought suspiciously.

"The clues in these two cases are rich enough, and the details are clear. I don't understand what Captain He wants to know from me." Mo Bei said.

He Lanshan smiled honestly and said: "Oh? How can the young talent see that there are rich clues and obvious details?"

Mo Bei lowered his eyes and smiled, "In the first case, in order to keep the plot consistent with the novel, the murderer used oil canvases and picture frames, and even changed the victim into new clothes and shoes, find out where he bought these things , or check to see if someone learning oil painting has lost something. Isn’t this all clues? Moreover, when he took the victim away in the vegetable market, there were witnesses. Although the memory is not very deep, we can still understand Some of the murderer's appearance characteristics, such as those mentioned in the transcript, are male, between 25 and 172 years old, with a height between 175 and [-], thin body, etc. In the second case, I read that Lu Xiaoyan On the day of the disappearance, I told my classmates that I was going to meet a friend, and said that this friend was someone unexpected to my classmates. I will tell them when she comes back. Obviously, the murderer knew her and her classmates. It can make her let her guard down The scope of acquaintances who meet in private has narrowed again. Of course, there will be a lot of work that needs to be carefully investigated, but I think it is not a difficult problem based on Captain He's experience."

A gleam flashed in He Lanshan's eyes, "Well, let's continue."

"Some time ago, a police officer also came to me because of Zheng Dong's escape from Anding Hospital. Since Zheng Dong is a fan of my book, the murderer in this case was deliberately imitating the plot in my novel. The time of the case happened in After Zheng Dong fled, his appearance matches what the witnesses saw, and he is also Lu Xiaoyan's classmate... so many coincidences add up, my inference is that Zheng Dong is the murderer." Mo Bei pinched Squeezing Xia Duo's hand, "This is just my personal guess, which may not match the facts. Who the real culprit is depends on Captain He and your investigation."

He Lanshan stared at Mo Bei silently for a moment, and said, "Actually, the results of our investigation and deduction are generally consistent with yours. Zheng Dong is the most suspicious."

After a moment of silence, He Lanshan said again: "It is our police's duty to arrest the murderer, and it is also our police's duty to protect innocent citizens. In fact, some details of these two cases have been disclosed by the media now, and many people are Know that the murderer is imitating the plot of your novel to kill."

Xia Duo asked nervously: "Captain He, do you mean someone blamed Beibei for the crime?"

He Lanshan said: "It's to vent your anger."

Before the police catch the murderer, the common people need an outlet to vent their anger, either accusing the "incompetent" police or the writer who "leads the crime".Of course, there must be someone with ulterior motives behind this to guide public opinion, but He Lanshan still doesn't know who it is, and for what purpose.

"Is someone going to harass my family?"

"Not yet, but the public opinion is not good, and there are people burning paper money outside your residence."

Xia Duo said angrily: "It's too much! Who do they think they are? The judge? The messenger of justice? If you have the ability to deal with the murderer, what kind of ability is it to implicate the innocent!"

Mo Bei said: "A few years ago, some people questioned my work in the newspapers, thinking that mystery novels would teach some weak-willed people to commit crimes. This kind of debate is like a rag. I will pull it over and wipe it. Remember, when "Shaolin Temple" hit the theaters, some children ran away from home to learn art from teachers, didn't they also shout at the movie, thinking that it was the movie and the actors The children have been taught badly. And after the publication of Goethe's "The Sorrows of Young Werther", there have been imitative suicides. This book has been criticized and banned in many places."

Xia Duo sneered, "Teaching children is the responsibility of parents and schools. They themselves have not established a correct outlook on life and values ​​for their children, and have not taught them the ability to judge right from wrong, and distinguish reality from fantasy, but instead blame others . because it's easier to blame others than to reflect on yourself."

He Lanshan observed the two teenagers with great interest. They had minor problems similar to those of their peers, but they also had mature rationality beyond their peers, and it seemed that the relationship between the two was really good.It's really enviable. They know each other when they are young, and they have no guesses when they are young. This kind of friendship will often last until they grow up, or even die.

Xia Duo quickly controlled his resentment, and asked calmly: "Captain He, if someone harasses Bei Bei and his family for such a thing, how will the police deal with it?"

In fact, if the other party does not do too much, such as hurting people or smashing things, the police will at most treat it as a civil dispute to mediate and persuade.

Mo Bei comforted Xia Duo, "It doesn't matter, little uncle will find a way."

Xia Duo had always trusted Gong Xiaobai's supernatural powers, so he really relaxed after hearing this.

He Lanshan smiled wryly, and sometimes he had to admit that these gangsters had a way of doing things that the police could do nothing about - the reason was very simple, the police were bound by laws and regulations, but the gangsters didn't care about it.

"Actually, I have another idea..." He Lanshan opened his mouth after deliberation. Before he could finish speaking, a young policeman ran over and shouted nervously, "Captain He! Someone was killed again!"

He Lanshan frowned, a little dissatisfied with his subordinate's frizzy performance, but the little policeman took a look at Mo Bei, and added another sentence: "The murderer is still the guy who imitated him."

When everyone was grim about the new murder case, Mo Bei gave an inappropriate chuckle, which caused the little policeman to stare at him. "It's wrong for the police uncle to say that, imitating me? Did I kill someone too?"

The little policeman knew that he had made a slip of the tongue, but he still held up the scene in an arrogant tone: "Don't pick and choose, and don't look at this occasion, do you, a little boy, have a place to speak?"

Mo Bei looked at He Lanshan with a smile, and He Lanshan had no choice but to scold his subordinates with a straight face: "If you have something to do, you can be so impatient and unstable. How many times have I taught you to be calm when you are a policeman? A lot of details are missing.”

The little policeman blushed and accepted the lesson: "Yes, Captain He."

After hesitating for a while, He Lanshan invited: "Is it convenient for you to come and see the scene with me?"

Mo Bei was really surprised, and the little policeman also looked at his boss in surprise, and blurted out: "Captain He, isn't this appropriate?"

He Lanshan still looked at Mo Bei with sincerity, "I want to arrest the murderer as soon as possible to avoid more victims. I think you can definitely help us."

This is really an unusual policeman.

Mo Bei thought for a while, held He Lan's generous palm, and said solemnly: "I am willing to help."
