Dangerous Personality

The hour hand rotated slowly, and soon circled a small half circle, and the sky outside gradually darkened.

Chi Qing lay on the bed with her eyes closed until late at night, and when she was about to fall asleep, the old story of the family in the building who had an inheritance was brought up again.

The distorted woman's voice held back, she might be looking at the sleeping man next to her, gnashing her teeth and shouting inwardly: 【You sleep soundly, it has nothing to do with you, right? I'm the only one here blind worry. 】

"..."

Chi Qing opened her eyes, and really wanted to come to the door with a knife and say hello to her: Since you can't sleep, why don't you come out and have a chat.

It was already three o'clock in the morning.

On the other side of the wall, Xie Lin was sitting in the study room. There was only a yellowish reading lamp lit in the study room, but this color did not make the study room look warmer, because the computer in front of him was running Several shocking photos are displayed.

These photos are the electronic version of the stack of dismembered corpse photos brought back last time. When Ren Qin accidentally saw them, they were quite frightened.

However, these few photos that can scare people to rush out of the door now appear on the computer screen in a magnified form, and the details are magnified several times. Clearer.

On the speakerphone at the side, Wu Zhibin's voice came out: "This bag of corpses was dumped in the trash can at the back door of the fresh food market. A homeless man nearby thought it was raw meat that the stall owner didn't want, and was about to pick it up and eat it. The plastic bag accidentally leaked, and a human hand came out from under the bag, and the homeless man was startled, so he reported it to the police.”

Xie Lin looked at these photos and had only one question: "Where's his face?"

In a normal corpse case, even if the corpse has been sawed beyond recognition, the head can still restore the appearance of the deceased. However, in this case of corpse dismemberment, it is not known whether the shooting angle is wrong or the prisoner deliberately turned the face of the corpse. The chopping made it difficult to identify the real identity of the corpse, so that not even a trace of human skin tissue could be found on the face of the corpse.

"At present, the identity of the deceased cannot be confirmed. We have compared the DNA with the list of those who reported missing, but we haven't found a match yet. Another reason is the problem you mentioned," Wu Zhibin paused for two seconds on the other end of the phone , then continued, "...the strange thing is that this corpse has no face."

Wu Zhibin was also shocked by the brutality of this case: "The results of the forensic medical examination show that it is suspected that someone peeled off the victim's face before he died."

This is undoubtedly another difficult case.

Difficult to confirm the identity of the deceased, unexpected killing methods.

Previously, Xie Lin was mainly involved in the tenant case. The tenant case brought a lot of pressure to everyone, and it was really urgent, so I only showed Xie Lin the photos of the scene. This case is currently still in charge of the special case team.

Wu Zhibin explained the general situation to Xie Lin, and seeing that it was already late at night: "It's already this time, let's not talk about it, you should go to bed early...don't always go to bed so late."

The reason why Wu Zhibin has the impression that Xie Lin sleeps very late is mainly because he always answers the phone at the first time every time he looks for Xie Lin in the middle of the night, and it is the same every time Chi Qing looks for him for "treatment".

Wu Zhibin felt strange again as he spoke: "What are you doing without sleep at this hour every day, let alone work, don't you leave all the business in your family to others?"

"It's not like every day," Xie Lin said with a smile, "Okay, go to sleep quickly, you are getting old at your age, and your body is definitely not as good as mine. Stay up late less and take care of your health."

Wu Zhibin: "Brat..."

After Xie Lin hung up the phone, his gaze remained on the photo of the scene of the case.

He stared at the photos for a long time, looking carefully at each one, not missing every detail.Then he leaned back, raised his head and closed his eyes, thinking in his heart: Why did you kill him?What were you thinking when you killed him.

Thinking like this, he seemed to follow these questions into the scene of the crime. While half asleep and half awake, he pushed open a door and walked slowly into a small dark room with a strong smell of blood.

There was an iron bed in the small room (the back of the corpse stood with a little rust in the photo), and the hands, feet and limbs of the corpse were tightly bound with iron chains (the limbs in the photo had obvious strangulation marks), and he could even hear the chains And the sound of rubbing and sliding.

This dream was so realistic that when Xie Lin approached, he looked at the murderer's back in a black coat and said, "Stop!"

However, the black figure paused for a moment, then turned around slowly, and a man who couldn't see his face came out from the shadow. A face exactly like his.

……

"You should know where the murderer's first cut will start." The 'Jie Lin' standing in the dark smiled at him with a saw, "You even know why the murderer used the saw, no one knows better than you. "

That 'Jie Lin' walked up to him, the smile seemed to be painted on his face, and it was extremely stiff, like him but not like him, 'he' said: "What are you doing looking at me like this, I am you ah."

In the pitch-black basement, the furnishings are messy, and the few iron objects randomly erected in the corners are mottled and rusted. The dried blood stains on the ground appear darker than black in this darkness. The only light source comes from the incandescent lamp in the center of the basement. Light bulb.

The light was extremely faint.

The light source is poorly connected, the wires are directly exposed in the air, and the light flickers on and off.

Xie Lin faced 'him' without speaking.

He stood still and tried to recall Xie Feng's voice and Xie Feng's words: "I will always believe in you."

But this strange dream made him unable to recall Jiefeng’s voice for a long time. Perhaps the distance of ten years is too long, or maybe there is no setting about Jiefeng in this dream. Looking at himself with a creepy smile.

Until there was a knock on the door from the real world in his ear - 'Duk'.

……

'Tuk tuk tuk'.

There was no sound of knocking on the door, and the people outside seemed hesitant, just wanting to test whether he had fallen asleep or not.

Xie Lin heard it, and he opened his eyes suddenly.

"I'm not sober."

"As unbelievable as it sounds, that's how bad I am at drinking."

After knocking on the door, Chi Qing leaned against the elevator and talked to himself, rehearsing his speech.

He lowered his head, facing the tiles on the corridor floor, and evaluated the bad excuse he made just now with a blank expression: "The credibility of this statement is zero. If someone knocks on my door at three o'clock in the middle of the night with this argument..." He After thinking about it seriously, I finally said, "I'll let him go to the kitchen to choose a knife he likes the most, and then let him go in vertically and out horizontally."

"..."

Chi Qing couldn't lie down until late at night. He didn't know if Xie Lin had fallen asleep. At this point, normal people would have gone to bed already.But Xie Lin is not an ordinary person, if he really knocked on the door, there must be an explanation.

He continued to stare at the tile and said, "I'm dizzy, do you have any medicine?"

Chi Qing quickly vetoed this excuse, and said with a venomous tongue: "The nearby pharmacy is open 24 hours a day. If you are so dizzy that you can't walk, you can call for an errand on the mobile phone app."

"..."

The road was blocked by himself.

Chi Qing raised his hand to fiddle with the overly long hair on his forehead, and didn't understand what he was thinking for a while. If he followed his past habits, he could at least stay at home for more than a week, unless he couldn't bear it anymore. Otherwise, he wouldn't come and knock on the door easily.It may be that the "treatment" of the previous course of treatment has worked.

After feeling clean, it is difficult to endure the noise and hustle and bustle.

Just when he thought that Xie Lin would not be able to open the door if he was asleep, and was about to go back, the door in front of him suddenly opened.

Xie Lin stood at the door looking at him, and asked, "Uncomfortable?"

Chi Qing didn't have time to react, and chose the worst excuse among all the excuses: "I can't sleep, I'm idle and bored."

"..." Fortunately, Xie Lin didn't say much, he let Chi Qing in with a smile, "Coincidentally, I just couldn't sleep either."

When Xie Lin opened the door, Chi Qing felt that there was something wrong with him, but it was too difficult for a person with emotional disorders to ask him to specifically say what was wrong, and Xie Lin was a person who could not even read normally. , the moment of wrongness quickly dissipated from him, and the moment he opened his mouth, he returned to his usual state, and resolved the embarrassment with one sentence.

This time Jielin poured him not mineral water, but a cup of hot milk: "Here, hot milk can help you sleep, and it can also hangover. Although few people need to hangover just because of a piece of bonbon chocolate, your drinking capacity ...maybe we need to figure it out."

Xie Lin even explained very intimately: "The new cup has only been used by you since you bought it."

Holding the glass of milk, Chi Qing looked at Xie Lin's hand hanging by his side. Before he could organize his words, Xie Lin seemed to know what he was going to do: "Anyway, we are all idle and bored, so let's try treatment?"

The hands of the person in front of him and the cup of hot milk just now are more effective than pills. Chi Qing leaned on the sofa, and when he was about to fall asleep, he caught a glimpse of Xie Lin's hand from the corner of his eye, so he thought of Xie Lin holding a pen on a piece of paper. The way I was writing, and then, for no reason, I remembered the words on that piece of paper.

For the first time in his life, he reflected on himself, whether the evaluation he wrote during the day was too much.

The man wasn't that bad either.

So just when Xie Lin thought that Chi Qing had fallen asleep, he suddenly noticed that the fingers in his palm moved uncomfortably, and then Chi Qing's usual emotionless voice sounded next to his ears: "That piece of paper during the day Paper……"

Chi Qing opened his eyes, but didn't look at him, and continued: "I didn't write seriously."

Hearing him take the initiative to say this, Xie Lin was obviously surprised.

Chi Qing continued to say with difficulty: "Actually, you barely have some advantages."

Xie Lin suddenly smiled: "Thank you, I would be happier if your words were a little more certain."

Chi Qing said in silence that he couldn't do it.Xie Lin didn't give up easily: "For example, how much do you want to hear? If you treat me in the middle of the night, you have to get paid."

Chi Qing simply closed his eyes again.

"..." is ruthless enough.

"Run away halfway," Xie Lin said, "Have no conscience."

Chi Qing was worried that Jielin would become the only source of noise in his clean world, so he still said a few words: "He looks okay, and his IQ is okay." He finally said, "Very good at solving crimes."

Chi Qing didn't know why when he said the last point, Xie Lin's palm tightened a little.

Then he heard Xie Lin ask inexplicably: "Is being good at solving cases counted as an advantage?"

"?"

Chi Qing didn't understand: "Speak human words."

"But don't you think," Xie Lin laughed, rationally told him that he didn't need to ask such a question, but maybe it was too late at night, and he asked it for the first time, "Knowing the murderer is a very dangerous characteristic what?"

"……do not think so."

"why?"

Chi Qing was actually about to fall asleep, so the answer to Jielin at this time was entirely based on subconsciousness and intuition.

He said without thinking: "Because you would never choose to do the same thing as the murderer."
