eighth story

Wu Qinyang said, "What about the corpse?"

Xuan Jue said: "The corpse... I'm afraid it's no longer where Lin Jie hid it."

Wu Qinyang was taken aback, "Huh?"

Xiang Dan said: "Indeed, there has been no news from the police dog team for the past two days. It seems that they are not at school. Besides, if the body is still there, Lin Jie will definitely not react like this." She didn't wait for Wu Qinyang to ask why, Then he continued to explain, "If the body is still there, the first thing Lin Jie has to do is to run, instead of staying in the dormitory and waiting for us to find him. Think about it, he killed someone in the past, in order to ensure that he would not be killed by others." He found out that the process of disposing of the corpse must be quite secretive. But now that the corpse he carefully hid has reappeared in front of him, at this time, he will no longer comfort himself that this is a coincidence, and he will definitely suspect that he still There were other people there, but he didn't find out. He didn't know the purpose of the other party, but he was sure that the other party must know something. Maybe that person took a picture of himself when he hid the corpse, maybe that person would tell the place where the corpse was hidden. Tell the police that this puts Lin Jie in a very dangerous situation. If the body is still there, it will be conclusive evidence, and he will definitely choose to escape at the risk of being exposed instead of staying at the school and waiting to die."

Wu Qinyang also seemed to understand a little bit, and slowly expressed his understanding along Xiang Dan's meaning: "If the police can't find the body, there is no evidence. But if the body is gone, then Lin Jie will think it is 'that person' The body was transferred, he doesn't know who 'that person' is now, but the most direct evidence is in the hands of 'that person', he didn't run away to let the police think he was frank, he wanted the police to think that the murderer and the abandoned body Is it the same person?"

Although Wu Qinyang's words didn't hit the mark, they were not far away. Qiao Yuan came back at some point, stood aside and listened to Wu Qinyang's words, and said with a smile: "Lin Jie's tricks even Yang Yang can see it." Come out, what's the point of continuing to investigate this case?"

Wu Qinyang said: "I heard what my brother and the others said..." After finishing speaking, he glanced at Xuan Jue again.

Qiao Yuan said: "Wait for news from Tang Dao and the others. He Anping's pregnancy must be a breakthrough. It would be even more interesting if Lin Jie didn't know about it. I really put in all my energy to find out if there is any evidence. I can collect everything in half a day. Get up and slap him on the table, Lin Jie is still trying to hide the truth, after all, he is too tender, don’t you think so?”

Wu Qinyang thought silently in his heart, Uncle Qiao, I am more tender. If I kill someone, I will be scared to death. I don't have time to think about these things. I will probably be handcuffed immediately.

Xuan Jue admired Qiao Yuan.Having joined the public security system for more than [-] years, Qiao Yuan's human experience is no less than that of Shen Heng back then, and the technical geek is no longer a pure technical nerd, otherwise he would not be able to lead the serious case group today.Sometimes investigations don't have to start with clear evidence. A movement or a glance can become a breakthrough in a new direction. In a case like this one where the victim has a fixed social circle, it is the people who are the easiest to find the flaw.There will always be times when people are too busy to take care of themselves, and they will push back the whole picture of the whole case based on the suspect's obvious omissions, and then look for evidence according to the most reasonable explanation at present.

But it is not easy to achieve this. The ultimate goal of solving a case is always the evidence. Most people really dare not do this, because if they are not careful, they will be slapped in the face by the evidence and have to start all over again.But today’s Qiao Yuan has this courage. For more than 20 years, not to mention reading countless cases, he has also experienced many battles. There are only a few reasons for killing, whether it is revenge for love or money or unintentional mistakes. Qiao Yuan is now He can understand these things, so he never gets serious about those places where there will be a reasonable explanation after solving the case. If he can't understand it at this stage, just let it go. For example, the reason for Lin Jie's murder this time, or why He Anping's head appeared this time In a free stockpot.

It was already dark at this time of winter, Qiao Yuan glanced at the time with his mobile phone, and said to the three of them: "It's getting late, why don't you go have a meal? Let's go, I invite you. How about cross-bridge rice noodles?"

Xiang Dan said: "Qiao Zu, you don't care about Xiaoping and Brother Dao?"

Qiao Yuan said: "They will naturally call if there is news, what's the rush?"

Wu Qinyang recalled the discussion just now, and found that he seemed to have a little talent for logical reasoning, and he was a little proud.At around six o'clock in the evening, Qiao Yuan felt really hungry when he mentioned it, so Wu Qinyang took Xuan Jue, and together with Xiang Dan, followed Qiao Yuan to the school gate to eat cross-bridge rice noodles.

On the other side, in Lin Jie's dormitory, Tang Dao told Lin Jie the fact that He Anping was pregnant.

Pingfan didn't speak all the time, just stood with his arms folded, watching the expression on Lin Jie's face coldly.Lin Jie's expression has always been unnatural, but it's okay to cover up a little, it seems to be uneasy about his behavior of leaving without saying goodbye in the hospital.He has been trying his best to maintain his composure, but his ordinary eyes are like a steel knife ready to go, stabbing straight at him, making it almost impossible for him to retreat in the small dormitory.

Before he knew it, his closest layer of clothing was soaked with sweat.

The mutual silence lasted only a minute or two. Tang Dao heard Qiao Yuan's footsteps leaving, and a mocking expression appeared on his face.After a while, he said bluntly to Lin Jie: "He Anping is pregnant, did you know?"

These words fell in Lin Jie's ears like a thunderbolt.Lin Jie raised his head in astonishment, a strange light appeared in his eyes, and subconsciously asked, "What did you say!?"

Tang Dao repeated: "He Anping is pregnant for three months."

Lin Jie was a little hesitant for a while, and the corners of his mouth twitched slightly, as if he wanted to say something, but in the end, only a few vague syllables escaped from his throat, showing a strange expression of crying and laughing on his face.Tang Dao and Pingfan looked at him coldly, without comforting him, watching his fragile expression shell shattered into scum all over the floor.Lin Jie stood helplessly on the ground, not knowing where to put his hands, so he could only support the edge of the table, staring blankly at Tang Dao's face, his voice was so soft that he seemed to be talking to himself: "Why don't I know?"

Tang Dao let out a "chi" laugh, and repeated: "Yes, why don't you know."

Lin Jie was stunned for a while, the last two lines of tears rolled down from the corners of his eyes, but he became hysterical and shouted: "Impossible!"

His roar was so loud that it alarmed the people in the dormitory next door.Tang Dao heard the sound of the dormitory door opening and closing in the corridor, and someone was whispering "what happened" and "what's the matter", and it fell silent after a while.

Tang Dao said: "Li Jiayin told us that she is He Anping's best friend, you should believe her words."

Lin Jie shook his head, and took another two steps back. The rapid panting made his chest rise and fall, and he murmured: "Impossible! Impossible! Xiao An never told me! Impossible!" His voice became louder and louder. Getting bigger and bigger, as if trying to prove something.Pingfan snorted softly, and Lin Jie rushed over again at this moment, wanting to grab Tang Dao's collar, and shouted again: "Impossible! You lied! You are all fucking liars! Impossible!"

Tang Dao dodged Lin Jie's outstretched hand easily, and Lin Jie couldn't stand still, so he fell forward to the ground in such a state of embarrassment.Tang Dao looked at him without the slightest pity, seeing Lin Jie curled up in a ball under his and Pingfan's feet, wailing like a collapse, and repeating with sobs: "Impossible... I didn't mean it! Xiao An! Xiao An!"

He got up from the ground while shouting, looked at Pingfan and Tang Dao, his eyes were terribly bright for some reason, and there was a trace of longing and hopeful begging, and he whispered: "You lied to me, Xiao An Pregnant... She has a child, no! No! Xiao An is not dead, right... not me!"

Tang Dao said: "Lin Jie..."

Lin Jie said: "I didn't! I didn't! I didn't intend to kill Xiaoan! I didn't mean it!" He backed up while talking, this time he wanted to avoid Tang Dao and Pingfan standing in front of him far away. Repeated like self-hypnosis, "You are all liars! Liars! I didn't mean it... I didn't mean it! Xiao An is fine, right! She is with Li Jiayin now, right! I want to find her! You let me open!"

He spun around like a headless fly, and after a while, he let out a painful wail, and threw himself directly at the window.He stepped on the window sill with one foot, clasped the window frame tightly with both hands, and shouted hysterically again: "Xiao An!" He leaned forward, as if he was going to jump straight away.

Lin Jie's dormitory is located on the fourth floor of the male medical building. Although it is the top floor for this building, it is neither tall nor short.Lin Jie's eyes were red and he was about to jump down. Pingfan and Tang Dao had sharp eyesight and quick hands, each grabbed his shoulders and the other dragged his feet, dragging him back the moment Lin Jie jumped.

Lin Jie was pressed to the ground by the two of them, twitching and struggling but couldn't move, snot and tears flowed down together, his fingers convulsed as if trying to dig into the tiles on the ground.There seemed to be a thin sobbing sound coming from somewhere, Lin Jie's eyes were straightened, and he said in a low voice: "Xiao An..."

Pingfan twisted his hands and handcuffed him, and together with Tang Dao dragged him up from the ground.Lin Jie's eyes were lost, bloodshot like blood tears that failed to drip from his eyes.

Pingfan took Lin Jie away.Students in the medical school generally have evening classes, and it’s time for dinner. Actually, there are not many students in the dormitory building, but the movement made by Lin Jie just now made the small number of people notice the importance of this dormitory. Unexpectedly, he couldn't help opening a crack in the door and looked out cautiously, but only saw the backs of Lin Jie and Ping Ping leaving.

Tang Dao looked at the dormitory, squatted down and straightened a pair of shoes that were knocked crooked by Lin Jie, and then called Qiao Yuan: "Qiao Group."

He didn't say much, but Qiao Yuan quickly understood what he meant, said "uh" and said, "Where's Lin Jie?"

Tang Dao said: "Xiaoping is taken down."

Qiao Yuan said: "Success, pay attention, you two get Lin Jie back to the bureau first, and work hard. Do you want to eat rice noodles? I will pack it for you two and take it back later. By the way, remember to put Lin Jie under his feet. Bring back that rice cooker."

Tang Dao said: "Eat, my and Xiaoping's are both spicy, and I want fat beef."

Qiao Yuan said: "Okay, let's go back now. Interrogate Lin Jie tonight, work overtime, and try to get this case out before next week, or it will have to be delayed until next month." Then he explained to Tang Dao two more Sentence, hung up the phone.

Wu Qinyang was eating a steaming bowl of ham and rice noodles, and the steam from the bowl exuded a pleasant smell.Wu Qinyang skimmed off the coriander floating in the soup with a spoon, watched as Qiao Yuan got up and went to the counter to order two rice noodles for Pingfan and Tangdao, while Xuanjue gave him the fish balls in his bowl with chopsticks.

Xiang Dan saw this scene and said with a smile: "Qin Jue, I can't see it, you really do love your brother. That's great. If I have a brother like you, I will really make a lot of money."

Xuan Jue smiled, and casually put the last ball into Xiang Dan's bowl.

Xiang Dan said "Yo", and picked a large group of Flammulina velutipes as a gift in return, and said while chewing the rice noodles: "Reciprocity is a gift."

Wu Qinyang looked at their interaction, and thought of the two of them speculating about the case downstairs just now, and they answered each other very tacitly. He felt a little uncomfortable, and he couldn't tell why, so he simply gave up thinking about it and talked in a daze. After finishing eating the rice noodles, seeing Qiao Yuan come back with two packages of fat cattle, the four of them walked out of the Xiaoqiao rice noodle shop together.

Qiao Yuan said: "Let's go back to the game, Xiaojue, you can take Yangyang home and rest."

Xuan Jue responded, but Wu Qinyang was a little unwilling, and quickly said to Qiao Yuan: "Uncle Qiao, can I go too?"

Qiao Yuan smiled and said, "You kid, do you want to join in the fun?"

Wu Qinyang said: "That's right, I haven't watched Solve the Case yet... Uncle Qiao, let me go and have a look. I also want to know why Lin Jie is, otherwise how will I eat in the cafeteria at school in the future."

Qiao Yuan thought about it, and thought it would be okay to bring Wu Qinyang, seeing that Xuan Jue was also there, he said, "That's fine, let's come together."
