I come from the abyss

The background color of the oil painting on the wall is pure white, and the right side is painted with layers of paint. The outline looks like a house that has been cut in third.The left side of the oil painting is blank. It is originally a white background, but it seems that white paint has been splashed on it, making the canvas uneven.

Zhou Boxue sat under the painting, a little soot fell on his shiny pointed leather shoes, and he was dusted off with a slight shake.

Fang Mingxu withdrew his gaze from following the soot, and said to Zhou Boxue: "Mr. Zhou, Xinyu first...Miss Xinyu's condition has stabilized, as long as she takes her medicine on time and keeps her relaxed. I will prescribe some medicine for her." Slight medicine, get used to it slowly, gradually reduce the dose, and bring her back in a few days..."

Zhou Boxue has always been a client of Mingxi's psychological clinic, and his girlfriend is Fang Mingxu's patient.

Zhou Boxue listened to him quietly, the cigarette between his fingers burned to his buttocks, and was thrown into the ashtray before burning his hands.

"Fang Mingxu, Fang Mingxi, I almost forgot." Zhou Boxue fixed his gaze on Fang Mingxu: "If it weren't for Liao Xueming's disappearance and Han Jingwen's tragic death, I might not have suspected you. Doctor Fang? Fang Mingxi's younger brother, you are now avenging your sister ?”

Fang Mingxu: "Mr. Zhou, don't be joking. I don't know the Fang Mingxi you're talking about. I'm an only child and I don't have any real sisters...unless you're talking about cousins."

Zhou Boxue: "I heard that Dr. Fang was in a car accident, and was slightly injured because he was protected by his parents, but his biological parents died in the car accident? How old were you? Thirteen? Fourteen?"

Fang Mingxu looked displeased: "I don't want to mention this."

Zhou Boxue leaned forward: "The Fang family indeed has an only son who seldom goes out because he is weak and sick. No one knows if he might have died of illness early—" Shrugging his shoulders indifferently, he said: "Before the car accident, Fang's The couple is going through the adoption procedures and brought back a boy who is about the same age as their only son from the children's welfare home."

Fang Mingxu: "Mr. Zhou thought I was the adopted boy?"

Zhou Boxue asked back: "Really?"

"Ridiculous!" Fang Mingxu laughed angrily: "I said that I don't want to mention this matter again! If Mr. Zhou's sudden visit is to expose people's scars, I'm sorry I don't welcome you." He pressed the call button on the landline and called his assistant: "Please Mr. Zhou, get out!"

The assistant came in quickly. Although he didn't know what happened, he could feel the tense atmosphere.She asked Zhou Boxue, a major client of Mingxi Psychological Clinic, to leave in a low voice.

Zhou Boxue stood up cooperatively, and suddenly asked, "Liang Xiaozhi was your patient before?"

Fang Mingxu: "Who is she? I don't quite remember."

Zhou Bo smiled knowingly, "Doctor Fang, you are trying to cover up." After a long pause, he said meaningfully: "Don't lose control."

After all, he left.

"No need to send it. It may not be easy to meet next time."

Fang Mingxu was still in his original position, with his fingers crossed and his expression stiff. When the assistant hesitated to speak in worry, he forced a smile: "It's fine. Please don't pick up guests this afternoon."

The assistant nodded, and when he went out to take it to the door, he thought to himself, Dr. Fang is so gentle.

In the empty office, Fang Mingxu was lying on the table, trying hard to suppress the urge to laugh, thinking back to Zhou Boxue, who had just won the chance, as if he had seen the truth, so he appeared arrogantly in front of him, the 'true murderer', to show off his high morals Husband.

Pretentious, complacent, like a donkey.

Criminal Investigation Office of Dongcheng Branch.

"Liao Xueming and Han Jingwen both died at the hands of the same person. The cause of death was that they bullied a girl when they were minors. The murderer's next target will be Zhou Boxue."

"Contact Zhou Boxue and ask him to cooperate with the police."

"Someone has been sent to contact."

"Captain Li, you asked me to transfer the case records from Xinzhou District." Comrade criminal police handed several printed files to Li Zan, and said at the same time: "I took a look, and they are all accidental homicide records. What are you here for?"

Li Zan: "I'm too busy."

This remark aroused the anger of the comrades of the surrounding criminal police who were busy vomiting blood, and even threw useless folders, wishing to kill the annoying Li Dui.

"Why don't you share our hardships with us?"

"That's right! I have piled up the unsolved cases in Dongcheng District in recent years. Team Zeng asked me to find cases that may be love murders or chaotic private lives... No, some of the dead people don't even know their names, let alone investigate their private lives!"

"A pile of unsolved cases, looking for a needle in a haystack."

"Captain Li—" Someone howled like crazy to vent: "Help me when you are free! Help me and I promise you with your body!!"

Li Zan looked back at the bear-like face, shook his head again and again in refusal, and hurried back to the office holding the documents, not forgetting to encourage his colleagues in the Criminal Investigation Office: "Being a man must be down-to-earth, can you compare with me? It is you who endure hardships and stand hard work." As the only usefulness and virtue of a grandson, brother Xun said that young people should be a bully—”

Li Zan stepped into the office threshold, grabbed the doorknob, looked around at the comrades who were quite serious and obedient, and almost moved himself with his earnest words: "Remember father's love is like a mountain, now is the time for you to be filial to father."

……

"Get out!", "Captain Li is getting more and more stupid.", "Is the higher-ups deliberately cultivating Ji Chengling?", "It's better to pull Papa Li off the horse and help Xiao Ji to the top. I think Tong Ju will not object."

"I agree, who of you will usurp the throne?"

"..."

The crowd dispersed silently, thinking that the person who can pull Li Dui down is a hero, and heroes are easy to sacrifice, so they should continue to fight.

In his office, Li Zan looked through several murder cases transferred from Xinzhou District, namely He Jiashi who died in a car accident, Cao Jia who was killed in a hotel, Fang Yuqing who committed suicide, Zhou Bosi and Liang Huajun who died in a car accident.

These murders were either committed by suicide or death, or were accidents, and all were closed.

If Zhang Xi's death had not been too high-profile, I'm afraid there would be no chance to see the sun again.

Li Zan took out a pen and paper to draw each person's relationship diagram, the cause of death, and the common points that may overlap, and then superimposed them into a tree diagram with the deaths of Han Jingwen and Liao Xueming as the backbone.

Shaking the pen, Li Zan wrote "Human Trafficking" and Jingjiu Horse Herds Club in addition to the tree diagram named "Multi-Organization Serial Murder", and finally circled Liao Xueming with a red pen.

Chen Jie asked Wang to help investigate Fang Mingxu. After getting the basic information, she ran to investigate Fang Mingxu single-handedly. She checked Fang Mingxu's address, relatives and friends, even interviewed his university tutors and classmates before he started working, and even found Fang Mingxu of high school period.

Early in the morning and late at night.

The criminal investigation office was brightly lit, as bright as day, and the busy policemen clicked the mouse while eating instant noodles, and the clock above their heads 'tacked' forward without any hurry.

Chen Jie hurried back, Ji Chengling and Lao Zeng were exchanging information, when they saw Chen Jie like that, they called her over to exchange information: "What did you find?"

Chen Jie raised the recording in her hand, raised her eyebrows and said, "Fang Mingxu from the bottom."

"Excellent!" Ji Chengling wanted to know that the recording must be rich in content, and it would be a waste of time and boring to listen to it without screening, so he simply asked: "Let's talk about the main points directly."

Chen Jie threw the recording to Wang, and asked him to screen out the key information and intercept it as the direction of the investigation. Then she pulled up a chair and sat down to free her two legs that had been running for more than ten hours.

"Dr. Fang in Mingxi Psychological Clinic is an only son. His parents died in a car accident, and his relatives have not moved around for a long time. Fang Mingxu has nothing to say about him. His classmates and tutors in college and high school all talk about him. Excellent, a pillar of society." Chen Jie turned her head to look at Wang: "I asked Wang to check Fang Mingxi's family during the day, and her parents are different from Dr. Fang's parents."

Ji Chengling frowned: "Wrong check?"

Chen Jie shook her head: "Fang Mingxu suffered from heart disease in his early years and often recuperated at home. His parents died in a car accident. At that time, Fang and his wife came out of a children's welfare home and had just completed the adoption procedures. During that time, Fang Mingxu was almost vaporized state."

Ji Chengling: "The single son is seriously ill at home. Parents should be so busy that they don't have time to adopt another child."

"That's the problem." Chen Jie asked Wang to pull out Fang Mingxi's files, and let Ji Chengling and Lao Zeng come over to look at them: "The year Fang Mingxi had an accident, the social network was underdeveloped, and the channels of communication were TV news and newspapers, but this channel It was easily cut off, so there wasn't much information to be found."

Wang Dangdang: "Fang Mingxi's parents had nowhere to ask for help, and were suppressed by the perpetrators. At that time, public opinion was easy to be guided, and when something like that happened, people preconceived and questioned the victim's lack of self-love. Fang Mingxi was 12 years old, just developed, beautiful, and more loving. Beautiful, there are a group of boys around her no matter in the school or in the community. In addition, the assailant is a minor, and Liao Xueming is under 14 years old... So the assailant was acquitted, protected, and did not leave a criminal record. Fang Mingxi was mentally traumatized and pointed at, Fang's father ran around and was hit to death while walking at night."

"The driver who caused the accident escaped, and the Fang family suffered from serious debts. Fang's mother was weak and died of illness a year later. Fang Mingxi and her younger brother were sent to a children's welfare home, and were later adopted separately."

Ji Chengling's eyebrows twitched: "Fang Mingxu was adopted, and his adoptive parents were also surnamed Fang, and died in a car accident on the day he was adopted?"

Chen Jie: "It's possible."

Lao Zeng: "Chen Jie, be sure."

"At that time, the adoption procedures were not entered into the computer, and they were all paper records in duplicate. The adoption records of the Fangs were burned in a car accident, and another orphanage for children closed down ten years ago. I don't know where to transfer it to." Chen Jie said: "The reason for uncertainty is that there is no adoption record, and the only son of the Fang family has always been 'Fang Mingxu'!"

Lao Zeng was a little unbelievable: "You mean that the social identity of 'Fang Mingxu' has always existed? Hasn't it changed?"

"Yes!" Chen Jie: "The Fang couple who lost their lives in the car accident, their only son is 'Fang Mingxu', there is no name change, no second child, no child who died of illness, it has always been 'Fang Mingxu'. "

Ji Chengling: "Fang Mingxi's younger brother pretended to be 'Fang Mingxu'?"

"Not only." Chen Jie spread her hands: "Fang Mingxi's younger brother is also called 'Fang Mingxu'."

Ji Chengling and old Zeng Qiqi exclaimed: "Isn't it such a coincidence?!"

Chen Jie: "Fate is so ingenious."

Lao Zeng: "Check their previous photos, and you should still be able to find their enrollment files."

Chen Jie: "That would have to go to their primary and junior high schools. At that time, electronic archiving was not yet popular, so it might not be possible to find paper files from more than ten years ago."

Ji Chengling: "Let's check it out. After dawn, go to the Mingxi Psychological Clinic and bring him back for questioning."

Chen Jie: "Yes."

Li Zan took a piece of drawing paper out of the office, pasted the paper on Wang's desk, and pushed it forward: "Help Dad make a more eye-catching PPT." He turned around and saw Chen Jie: "Seeing that you are very confident, you should gain a lot." few."

"That must be!" Chen Jie recounted the content of the discussion just now, and finally said affirmatively: "Fang Mingxu has too many problems! I think he is the murderer and has not escaped! And he is a psychiatrist, who is best at psychological suggestion and mental health. Guidance, maybe he used his expertise to carry out serial murders."

Chen Jie's brain was wide open, and she boasted: "Boss, you said that this is a serial murder organized by many people. There must be a leader! Fang Mingxu is very suitable! Social status is as high as education, and good looks are deceptive. Bizarre and vendetta-like, it fits the bill perfectly for a serial killer."

Li Zan quietly waited for her to finish playing, and asked softly, "Have you checked Fang Mingxi?"

"——" Chen Jie stopped abruptly.

Li Zan: "The murderer may also be Fang Mingxi. After all, she is the direct victim, and she hates Liao Xueming and Han Jingwen even more."

Chen Jie pinched her earlobe, suddenly frustrated.

Li Zan: "It's also possible that Fang Mingxi and Fang Mingxu are cooperating...or maybe it's not them, but someone else. Wasn't the last name of the stranger who ordered the meal 'Wang'?"

Chen Jie: "The surname may be fake."

Li Zan: "If he is the murderer, there is no need for him to use a fake surname."

Chen Jie: "Why isn't it necessary?"

Li Zan: "He wants you to know him. He is confident that the police will not find him, so using a false surname is superfluous."

Chen Jie's proud little flame was extinguished at once, and she patted her cheeks with both hands and grinned. As expected of the boss, she beat her back to the ground with a few words and continued to do hard work on a down-to-earth basis.

Lao Zeng said with a smile: "Chen Jie did a lot of research, which is worthy of praise. Moreover, the orphanage that adopted Fang Mingxi closed down, the file records were lost, and the clues were broken. Starting from this aspect, I think it is a waste of time."

Ji Chengling made a suggestion: "You can check Fang Mingxu. If this Fang Mingxu is Fang Mingxi's younger brother, they should contact him."

They looked at Li Zan and asked silently.

Li Zan didn't care: "Then look it up." He clapped his hands and was about to leave work when he suddenly remembered something and knocked on the table to signal Wang: "Help me buy tickets for the Zhangyuejiang Xiliu Symphony Orchestra. I want tomorrow... oh, 3 in the morning." Click, that's today's ticket."

Wang's expression is a little cracked, the number of tickets sold by the Yuejiang Xiliu Symphony Orchestra is limited!The sales channels were closed on the day of the performance, so where can he go to buy tickets from scalpers in the middle of the night? !

Lao Zeng: "Isn't that the hobby of elegant and superior people? Why are you going to join in the fun, playing solo with a single trumpet?"

Li Zan rubbed his chin, broad-minded, and didn't mind Lao Zeng's slander: "It's time to cultivate an elegant taste in art."
