Dangerous Personality

Several people were silent for a while in a tacit understanding.

Finally, Xie Lin asked, "Where is Xue Mei's neighbor?"

The person in charge of recording at the side replied: "The detention period is over, the fine has been paid, and the person has been released."

Cun Tou is taking a day off today and is playing computer games in his long johns at home. There is a bucket of freshly soaked instant noodles next to the computer, steaming.

He didn't eat two mouthfuls of instant noodles when the doorbell rang.

Through the crack of the door, he saw half of the hem of the suit, the cuffs of the shirt were folded up by the man, and there was a ring on his finger.Xie Lin greeted him through the crack of the door: "Where are you eating? We met last time, so I still remember it."

"Remember," Cun Tou opened the door: "Why are you here?"

There was more than one person who came, besides him, there were three criminal police officers in uniform behind him, plus a man wearing gloves who was arrested by the police on the road with him last time.

Cun Tou can't understand what's going on.

He wiped the back of his trouser legs awkwardly: "Well, I've never done anything other than peeping..."

Several people ignored him and asked him to open the door and go inside one by one.

Only one person still stood outside the door without moving.

After Xie Lin entered the door, he also found that there was one missing. He turned around and saw that Chi Qing hadn't moved a step: "Why don't you come in?"

Chi Qing glanced at Cuntou's room, his tone was cold, and the disgust in his eyes was undisguised: "The room is small, there are many people, and the room is not clean. Is the reason sufficient?"

Buzz cut:"……"

Xie Linxin said who made him find such a difficult assistant: "Enough."

He added: "You wait at the door for a while. The incident happened suddenly, and I didn't take into account your special situation. Next time, I will remember to bring you a bottle of disinfectant and spray it wherever you go until you are satisfied."

"..."

It doesn't matter.

Chi Qing offered another way to solve the problem: "It doesn't need to be so troublesome, you can just choose not to take me."

"That won't work," Xie Lin opened his mouth, "I'd rather be troublesome."

While speaking, one of the criminal policemen had gone in and turned around for half a circle, and finally stopped in front of the wall.

The policeman pointed to the wall and asked, "Why is that hole blocked?"

In the evening, Xue Mei’s room was not turned on and the curtains were closed tightly. It was so dark that there was no light at all. The small black hole on the wall looked extremely deep, hanging on the wall like a pair of dark, bottomless eyes. .

That hole was temporarily blocked by Bunny with something—after learning that a murder happened next door, he never dared to look into that hole again.

"I'm afraid, Comrade Policeman," Cun Tou said with a bitter face, "after all, someone died next door, whoever wants to see the scene of the murder just by looking up, isn't that a psychopath."

The policeman wondered, "You've been spying on people, aren't you just a psychopath?"

Buzz cut:"…………"

Cun Tou still couldn't figure out why they came this time, until they asked him to take out the things in the hole, and then asked him to adjust the light source in his room to the state where he was peeping at Xue Mei in the middle of the night. He was afraid of being discovered when he was peeping in the middle of the night , so all the lights in the room will be turned off.

After turning off the lights, the room was pitch black.

He couldn't see anything, he could only hear Jie Lin's highly recognizable voice: "So you don't turn on the lights in your room, what about Xue Mei's room?"

Cun Tou recalled: "She went to bed early and went to bed at eleven o'clock."

Xie Lin: "She didn't turn on the light either?"

Cun Tou: "Sometimes I don't turn on the light, and sometimes I turn on a bedside lamp. Anyway, it's not very bright, and I can't see clearly what I'm doing."

According to what he said, the criminal police turned on the bedside lamp in Xue Mei's room, until the light sources in the two rooms became the same as when Cun Tou was peeping at Xue Mei before, Xie Lin signaled Cun Tou to take a few steps forward: "Go over."

Cun Tou: "—Huh?"

Xie Lin: "Do as you peeked in the past, just lie down."

I don't know the size of the head, so I thought that this group of people came all the way just to watch him perform voyeurism.

But no matter how doubtful he was, he could only obey obediently.

His past history of voyeurism allowed him to accurately locate the peephole by memory even in an environment where he could not see his fingers. He touched the wall and squatted down to bring his eyes up. His black and white eyes were aimed at the hole in the wall. From his perspective It happened to be able to see the small bedside lamp emitting a warm yellow gleam, and the bed that Xue Mei had been lying on before.

A few seconds later, Xue Mei's closed door was opened.

Cun Tou tried his best to widen his eyes so that he could see more clearly. After seeing the movement, he said, "Someone came in..."

Xie Lin: "Continue."

"What else did you see?" Xie Lin continued.

"That's...Xue Mei's boyfriend?" Cun Tou repeated the scene in front of him, "I saw him walk around the room, go out again, oh, then opened the door and came in. Then there was no movement, No, Comrade Police, what exactly do you want me to see?"

They are actually testing.

The person who entered the door for the first time was indeed Xue Mei's boyfriend, but the man who entered after he went out was another person they specially found who was similar in shape to Xue Mei's boyfriend.

Obviously, in the case of insufficient light source, Cuntou cannot distinguish between two people with similar stature but completely different appearance.

They couldn't help but think of the two ordinary-sounding words Bunny had said in the interrogation room.

——"Her boyfriend comes here very frequently, coming here every now and then, and usually staying overnight when he comes."

——"Sometimes it's very late at night, even after Xue Mei falls asleep, he will come to see her and hug her to sleep."

So he went through that hidden hole, thinking that the person he saw was Xue Mei's boyfriend, but in fact he never saw the same person.The murderer who is similar to Xue Mei's boyfriend often sneaks in at night, blatantly sharing the bed with Xue Mei... When Cuntou peeped into the opposite room several times in the middle of the night, the murderer was only separated by a wall, and he couldn't see the other's face. He couldn't hear the other party's voice, only his ghostly and quiet figure could be seen.

No one knows why he can come and go at will.

Jie Lin stood in the dark and asked him: "What does that person who appears in the middle of the night usually do? Can you still remember it? The more detailed the better."

After learning the truth, Cun Tou's palms were sweaty, he swallowed, his Adam's apple moved, and he said in a trembling voice: "He, he would sometimes quietly stand beside Xue Mei's bed and look straight at Xue Mei after he opened the door and came in. She stood there for a long time. Then he would wander around the room and look through her things."

Some scenes that I didn't think much about at the time are weird when I think about them now.

He must have used drugs, poured the drug on the handkerchief, and then secretly covered Xue Mei's nasal cavity to prevent her from waking up suddenly in the middle of the night.

When Xue Mei fell into a coma, he would stroke Xue Mei's hair, face, and slender legs exposed outside the quilt...

In this eerie, quiet, and unnoticed late night, he could stand in this private room and look around wantonly, looking through what she had for dinner, and what words were added in the diary...

As Cun Tou thought about it, he, a big man, almost screamed, "He still looks at her phone!"

Now the mobile phone is unlocked by fingerprint unlocking and face recognition. As long as Xue Mei is lying on the bed, he only needs to sit by the bed, unplug the mobile phone that is charging, and then gently grasp Xue Mei's hand hanging on the side of the bed. Immediately afterwards, the light on the phone screen flashed suddenly, and the phone was unlocked.

He can grasp almost all the information in Xue Mei's life. He can enter the social software of the mobile phone as he likes, and see what she and her friends are talking about, when she goes to work, when she is on vacation, and what makes her happy or troubled recently. thing.

"He will go to the bathroom to take a shower after finishing reading his phone, and I won't continue to watch it. After waiting for more than ten, twenty, ten minutes, he will lift Xue Mei's quilt and go to bed." Cuntou recalled the blurred figure in his mind. Pressing half of his face against the wall, he stared intently at the other party in an unknown corner, "I don't know when he left, when I woke up in the morning, he was gone, only Xue Mei One person turned off the alarm clock, got up, brushed her teeth, washed her face and changed her clothes, because she didn't show any abnormalities, so I never thought about that."

After speaking, he couldn't help thinking: It's a good thing the murderer didn't find the hole in the wall. If he had seen it then, he might be the next one to die.

Cuntou ended his memories, the criminal police turned on the light in the room, everyone had expressions of horror on their faces, only their counselor's face was as usual, the second counselor named Chi standing at the door was even more extreme, he squinted after hearing the story Eyes yawned.

Chi Qing yawned and asked, "It's almost there, can we go?"

"..."

The criminal police handling the case are still immersed in the creepy atmosphere. In the concept of normal people, "home" is always the safest place. Once this sense of security is broken, it is difficult to remain indifferent.

The criminal police couldn't hold back and asked, "Aren't you afraid?"

Chi Qing: "I'm more afraid of the hygienic conditions here."

The corridor is full of sundries. As a qualified otaku, Cuntou upholds the fine tradition of not easily throwing out the door if the garbage can continue to pile up. Chi Qing carefully chooses a safer place to stand.

Chi Qing looked up at Cun Tou: "Your trash has been piled up for days, it's time to throw it away."

……

Compared with the story, the reaction of the second adviser of the General Administration seems to be more terrifying.

The criminal police looked at Xie Lin again, and found that although Xie Lin didn't yawn, and was even comforting Cun Tou, he habitually smiled when he spoke: "It's okay, you don't have to worry too much, as long as you don't see his face, He's not going to take too much risk going back to where he committed the crime."

In the past, he thought that Consultant Xie looked very friendly, but at this moment, this smile always made people feel fluffy.

Maybe the people who can become consultants... are different.

The detective can only think so in his heart.

But in any case, they are one step closer to the truth of Xue Mei's murder today.

On the way back, Xie Lin concluded: "Xue Mei didn't notice anything unusual when she got up the next day, which means that the murderer would clean up carefully before leaving every time to ensure that no traces were left. He should be a very cautious person."

"The physical characteristics of the murderer can also be basically confirmed. The height and body shape are highly similar to Xue Mei's boyfriend. Based on this characteristic, call the night surveillance near the community and check all suspicious persons again."

"And he entered through the main entrance, he can freely enter and exit Xue Mei's room, and he probably has the key in his hand."

Sitting in the back seat, Chi Qing couldn't help thinking: So how did the key come about?

Who has the keys to someone else's house?

No.2 Yang Zhenzhen has just come to South China City not long ago, has she also experienced the same experience as Xue Mei?

That day when Su Xiaolan sent her back to the residence from the bar, she had a big fight with her boyfriend, who accidentally pushed her down, then she woke up, and after she went to bed, the murderer also opened the door of her room like entering Xue Mei's house?

"Xue Mei and Yang Zhenzhen communicated directly with the landlord," the criminal police said, "and did not go through a third party, so we have been checking the landlord's information, including the landlord's former tenants..."

Chi Qing was sitting next to Xie Lin, thinking about something, Xie Lin took the water that the criminal police handed to the back row, and handed it to him naturally first.

Since Chi Qing recovered from the out-of-control state, he no longer has the habit of actively touching Xie Lin's hand, and his mental state has improved a lot. Xie Lin noticed these subtle changes, and when he passed the water, he asked: "There is no treatment today. "

Chi Qing: "No need."

Xie Lin asked another way: "Will you go to my house that night?"

Chi Qing fully demonstrated what it means to be ruthless: "Don't go."

"You don't want to be cured anymore?"

The out-of-control state has recovered, and Chi Qing has no reason to continue pestering him, nor does he have the habit of holding hands with people all day long.As long as he wears gloves and avoids alcohol, he can maintain a normal life.

"It's dead," Chi Qing said, "In the advanced stage, there is no cure, and there is no cure."

Xie Lin: "..."

After finishing speaking, when Chi Qing received the water, he still touched Xie Lin's hand through the glove. He didn't even react immediately. Thinking: Did he touch Xie Lin's hand just now?

It stands to reason that even with gloves on, he would try to avoid any possible physical contact.

The scenery outside the window wandered by.

Chi Qing screwed back the bottle cap, then looked down at the pair of black gloves on his hands, and after thinking for a while, he found that the "treatment" during this period seemed to be effective, although the effect was not within his previous expectation: he Not only did she not reject Jielin, she even got used to his touch without knowing when it started.
