Dangerous Personality

After Chi Qing went back, he took off his gloves. He didn't dry his hair after taking a shower, and the wet and cold hair was stuck to his forehead. As usual, the lights were not turned on in the room. Poured a glass of water.

There was a program on the TV, the volume was not loud, and the light from the screen faintly illuminated half of the living room.

Then Chi Qing leaned against the kitchen door and watched quietly for a while.

After drinking half a glass of water, he looked at his hands through the wet strands of hair on his forehead.

Still can't figure out...after the out-of-control state ended, why did Xie Linzhen become the "exception" that could be approached.

He has been running outside for half a day, wearing gloves and unable to look at his phone, and he has accumulated a lot of information throughout the day.

Curious about the progress of the case, Ji Mingrui was the first to bear the brunt.

- How about it, I heard that you have made a major discovery there.

Half an hour later, Ji Mingrui sent another message: Forget it, I can't count on you, I already asked about it, Su Xiaolan and I have goosebumps for a long time, and the inch-cut neighbor probably won't be able to sleep tonight, he definitely won't.

Not only can't sleep.Before they left, Cun Tou hesitated at the door for a long time anxiously, trying to persuade them to stay: "Why don't you detain me for a few more days, five days is too short to offset the mistakes I made, I am willing to detain them more A few days."

The criminal police glanced at him: "You also said that you are not a psychopath."

Buzz cut:"……"

Interpol: "Who wants to be detained, you have time to watch more mental health courses."

"..."

Ji Mingrui, who blindly guessed that others would not be able to sleep at night, did not expect that he would also suffer from insomnia. The last message was sent 10 minutes ago.

- As soon as I lie down, I feel like I have someone at home.

- I dare not sleep.

- can i go to your house and sleep with you

Chi Qinghui: Yes, bring a quilt by yourself. If you want to go to the bathroom outside, go to the public toilet outside. Before leaving the next day after sleeping, use disinfectant to wipe the area where you slept before leaving.

Ji Mingrui: ...

-never mind.

-I suddenly felt quite safe in my own home. Goodbye, I'm going to sleep.

For the police handling the case, sleep time is very precious. After confirming the height and body of the murderer, there will be a series of investigation tasks waiting for them tomorrow. Checking the surveillance is not an easy task. Staring at the past alone, the eyes almost become cross-eyed all day long.

After replying to Ji Mingrui, Chi Qing exited the dialog box and saw a message from another person just a few minutes ago.

-are you asleep.

This unread message with three characters and one punctuation mark came from Mr. Xie who was at the opposite door.

Chi Qing didn't realize that after sending Xie Lin messages a few times through the out-of-control period, his first reaction when he saw Xie Lin's news was to reply directly, instead of "Don't send me any messages if you have anything to do" as he said at the beginning of the warning. ".

Chi Qing: Don't tell me you can't sleep either.

-No, since I was eight years old, I have been reading serial murders as a bedside book, how could I not be able to fall asleep.

- I'm afraid you won't be able to sleep.

Immediately afterwards, Xie Lin sent another string of numbers.

-20110218

Chi Qing had been lowering his eyes, let go of the water glass and was going to sit on the sofa for a while, but when he touched the extremely familiar string of numbers, his pupils suddenly dilated, and the water glass placed on the edge of the table almost fell to the ground.

He is too familiar with the date corresponding to this string of numbers.

Although ten years have passed, he will no longer think of it as often as when he was just discharged from the hospital in high school, but everything that happened that day has reappeared in nightmares countless times.

That day when he came out of school, he received a call: "Uncle is too busy today, so he asked an uncle to pick you up. He will be there soon. Wait at the school gate."

He waited for a few minutes for someone to arrive, and got into the car smoothly. The car calmly turned into an intersection he was not familiar with. "Uncle" chatted with him with a smile on his face: "I often hear your uncle mentioning you, saying Your grades are particularly good, are you under a lot of study pressure recently? You have to combine work and rest, and relax properly..."

Chi Qing vaguely noticed that there was something strange about the driving route, so he swiped off his phone and was about to call his uncle.

Before the call was made, my uncle's text message arrived first: Your Uncle Yuan said that there was a traffic jam on the road, and it might take three to five minutes. You wait at the school gate and don't run around. He will be there soon.

……

Through the interior rearview mirror, Chi Qing saw the "uncle" in the driver's seat with a widening smile: "I just like smart kids. It's a pity that I'm old, and I'm still alone... you and me With fate, I will take you to a place."

Chi Qing looked at the string of numbers, and the familiar and distant voice sounded in his ears, and it took him a long time to reply: What is this.

- Door lock code.

- If you can't sleep or want to treat next time, just come in directly.

Chi Qing actually wanted to ask "Is this the date" and "Why did you use this date as your password", but the relationship between him and Xie Lin was not close enough to inquire about the other party's password, so he didn't ask anything in the end .

After all, for most people... February 2011, 2 could be any day in normal life.

When most people mention this day, they will not associate it with an old case.

Moreover, this is not necessarily a date, it may be a number converted through other laws.

Chi Qing intends to attribute it to a coincidence.

He finally replied: no need.

-Even if he appears at my bedside tonight, I can sleep well.

Ji Mingrui, who rolled up the quilt in the middle of the night and tried to fall asleep, can't imagine that there are people in this world with such a mentality stronger than a murderer. There are two consultants in their headquarters, one treats childhood homicide as a bedside book, and the other doesn't know what it is "Afraid".

The next day, intense investigation work began.

The investigators are scattered in many places, roughly divided into places: monitoring room, pharmacy, and key store.

Ji Mingrui led people around the key store: "Has any suspicious personnel come to your place to distribute keys recently?"

"Let me think about it," the boss slapped his head and said after thinking hard, "There is one, he didn't have a key, but he came to ask me if I know which neighborhood this style of key is from - now it's all unified by the developer. The matching door locks are basically the same brand, I can tell it is Tianrui's key at a glance."

After all the hard work to find out the person who asked for the key, it turned out to be an oolong.

"What!" the man shouted, "I'm going to return the keys to the gatekeepers in their community. You guys suspect me out of my kindness. There are so many buildings in Tianrui. The key, if I am willing to work hard, I can be promoted to a manager in our unit!"

"..."

Ji Mingrui apologized again and again, and handed over a cigarette: "I'm sorry bro, it's our villain's heart that judges a gentleman's belly, so let's just ask and exchange casually. Calm down and wish you an early promotion to manager."

The pharmacy is even less advanced.

This kind of country strictly supervises drugs, even if the murderer wants to buy them, it is unlikely to use formal channels.

Not to mention the monitoring room, there are too many suspicious people of the same size.

Hundreds of people with similar body shape to Xue Mei's boyfriend appeared in the surveillance.

After checking the key store, Ji Mingrui came to the monitoring room to help, dragging the progress bar back and forth repeatedly and said, "You said that Xue Mei's boyfriend is real, so can't he be more distinctive, such as two hundred catties, or two meters high, at a glance You can recognize that kind, what are you doing so ordinary, so the most important thing for a person is to have characteristics."

Su Xiaolan dripped eye drops beside her, and said after finishing, "...shut up and focus on watching."

There were also two "supervisors" sitting in the monitoring room.

Ji Mingrui said to one of the "supervisors" who seemed so bored that he was about to fall asleep: "By the way, it's rare to meet you today. You haven't told me how to become a consultant assistant."

Chi Qing raised his eyelids to look at him, and managed to cheer up a little: "There is no way out for acting, try changing careers."

Ji Mingrui: "Really? Have you finally figured it out?"

Fake.Chi Qingxin said.

Just make a deal with someone.

Although "treatment" is no longer needed, after all, he promised to understand Lin, and it is impossible for him to withdraw from this case immediately after taking office as an assistant.

Besides... he did have some interest in the case.

Otherwise, he wouldn't still be sitting in the monitoring room even if he was drowsy.

Thinking like this, Chi Qing didn't want to answer Ji Mingrui's pile of questions, and pointed to the "supervisor" No. [-] next to him: "Ask him."

Xie Lin, who was sitting next to him, was also watching the surveillance, but his way of viewing the surveillance was different from others. Rather than looking at the people in the surveillance, he was more like looking at the positions monitored by the surveillance, and admitted: "Yes. I'll see him first."

"?"

"What I mean is, because of his personal ability," Xie Lin said, "I want him to come and help."

Ji Mingrui: "Even if you have vision, my brothers are not good at acting and have problems with people, but their brains are still quite good."

Chi Qing: "...Are you looking for a beating?"

Ji Mingrui: "I dare to stand still and let you beat me, but do you dare to touch me?"

"..."

Xie Lin tilted his head to see the two of them bickering, and smiled lightly.

Chi Qing: "What are you laughing at?"

Xie Lin said: "It's just that I suddenly found myself quite dangerous. After all, the only person you can touch is me. If you get angry in the future, you can't beat others, but you can still beat me."

After Xie Lin finished speaking, he changed the subject in a timely manner: "Looking at you sitting for a long time, you almost wrote the word 'boring' on your face, why don't you watch the surveillance?"

Chi Qing glanced at the pile of surveillance images lined up together: "I don't think he will appear in the surveillance."

Ji Mingrui, who was still trying to drag the progress bar: "?"

I'm still dragging my ass off here, what the hell are you talking about.

Chi Qing continued: "This person is very cautious and knows these two communities very well. He has not been found in the surveillance near the time of the crime before... He should have chosen a course of action that can avoid the surveillance, or carry out Some sort of disguise."

To put it bluntly, the areas outside the surveillance are the most worthy of attention.

"It's about the same as what I thought," Xie Lin got up, motioning for him to follow along, "Go out and have a look."

Chi Qing found that Jielin had memorized all the monitoring locations. Once he avoided those locations, the remaining range of action would be much smaller. In the end, the two found that it was not easy to avoid all the monitoring routes in Tianrui Community. many.

After connecting all the monitoring blind spots into several lines, the situation became clear.

One of the roads ends at the entrance and exit of a garbage station in a residential area. Going out from the entrance and exit, there is a bustling commercial street with a lot of pedestrians and vehicles.

At a glance, the shop signs with red background and white characters compete with each other: "Zhipeng Haircut", "Haozailai Convenience Store", "Local Cuisine Restaurant"...

Chi Qing carefully avoided the crowd, and walked along the store. The names of the stores passed in front of his eyes. Finally, he saw a chain store decorated in lotus root pink at the intersection. The name of the store was in English, followed by "" The luminous light tube is recessed into a small cake shape.

This is a dessert shop.

The reason why Chi Qing stopped was not because of this store, but because he saw a familiar face in the store through the glass window.

Wearing a pink apron, Ren Qin was helping the guests pack desserts, and she carried them all the way to the door with a good temper. She opened the door and said, "This one is best eaten on the same day, and the other one can be stored in the refrigerator." In a few days, welcome next time...Mr. Chi?"

"Mr. Xie is here too? Are you two shopping together?"

Ren Qin didn't expect such a coincidence to meet two upstairs residents at work.

Chi Qing remembered that Ren Qin had said on the first day she moved here that she used to be the manager of a dessert shop in another city, but changed to another store because of a job transfer.

"He and I happened to be walking around here." While answering Ren Qin's words, Xie Lin realized that the group of people in the store were about to come out, so he subconsciously grabbed Chi Qing's hand, but Chi Qing didn't react, and was held back by him He took a step, and this step could barely miss the guests who happened to be going out.

"Why are you in a daze?" Xie Lin said, "...Aren't you usually good at hiding?"
