The sea and the book [criminal investigation]

Before getting off work on Friday, Bai Tan, a researcher from the School of Biology of Yunda University, came to the Municipal Bureau and sent over the decomposition report of the drug that had been sent for testing two days ago.

Yan Geng took Bai Tan into the office, and asked insinuatingly on the way: "Mr. Bai, have you encountered any strange things recently?"

Teacher Bai was surprised when he asked this question: "Did something strange happen?"

Yan Geng hesitated to speak, because just as Shu Manyue came out of the office, he coughed strangely when he saw him, and then showed his signature smirk: "Teacher Bai is here. Team Lu and Guo are still in a meeting, maybe we need to trouble Mr. Bai Wait a moment."

"It's okay." Bai Tan adjusted his glasses politely, and followed Yan Geng into the lounge next door.

Yan Geng wanted to ask something a few times, but stopped abruptly before blurting it out.

Bai Tan took out the documents from the document bag, looked up and saw Yan Geng standing at the door with a troubled face, thinking about something embarrassing.

"By the way, Officer Xiaoyan, I was just about to ask you something." Bai Tan remembered to ask, "Did someone from the community complain to the police station recently? They said someone was disturbing the people or something."

"There is such a thing." Yan Geng's eyes lit up, and he nodded frantically.

The Nancheng District Police Station received continuous complaints from the Nancheng Street, saying that they did not know who was staying up in the middle of the night and howling outside.

The east area of ​​Nancheng is an old commercial area, where Nancheng Middle School, Yunda Nancheng Campus and Yunda School of Biology are all located; after Yunjia Mall was located in Nancheng Square, a bustling business circle was formed around Yunjia Mall.

Later, Yunjia Shopping Center moved to the current address, and the old site was naturally abandoned.After two biddings, it was heard that the old real estate in Yunjia Shopping Center was bought by a big owner of a hotel chain; but for some unknown reason, the project has been put on hold until now and there is no progress.

Opposite the former site of Yunjia Shopping Center is a hotel for accommodation, and most of these complaints come from the hotel and nearby residents.

They all said that they heard the sound of ghosts crying and howling wolves at night. Some informants said convincingly that they saw a woman in white clothes with disheveled hair floating by at night, and an old man who lived alone said that he heard the cry of a child. Maybe it was because the child saw the dirty something to be afraid of.

It was originally an ordinary incident of disturbing the people, but it was spread by them like this, and finally turned into a haunting incident.

The police have called out to the police many times, but they have not found the source of the noise.

Adhering to the idea of ​​​​scientific atheism, if these noises are deliberately made by humans, it is very likely that someone is pretending to be a ghost.

After all, the noise can be an accident, but the woman in white with disheveled hair can't be a night tourist, right?

Bai Tan said that he had also heard the wailing and howling of ghosts and wolves in the rumors, but he believed in science and didn't think there were any ghosts and gods; recently, there were no major projects in the research institute, and he usually went back to his home after get off work at night. What happened near the research institute It's not quite clear what's going on strangely.

But once the rumors of haunting come out, causing panic is the best result for the time being.

After the meeting of the criminal police office was over, Bai Tan sent over the test report, saying that the test found that the unknown drug carried by the smuggler had the effect of mental paralysis, and preliminarily determined that the drug should have the same root as the pothos orchid that flowed into Yunying before.

"It's also a new drug?" Lu Nanchu asked after hearing his explanation.

Bai Tan confirmed this fact.

If this drug and the green radish come from the same source, it means that it is very likely that the same group of people did it.

The criminal gang who killed Bai Jinse was also the one who sent Lu Luolan to Yunying. This group had a lot to do with the previous Lu Luolan serial murders.

The relationship here is also complicated, and they still gather at the same point after going around in a circle.

Li Duan - Yun Ying

On the surface, only Feng Jingjia was related to this clue.

Feng Jingjia was a teacher at Yunda University and a researcher at the School of Biology. He once went to Liduan University as an exchange student, and was murdered just after receiving Lulan.

But the Feng family easily accepted the result of Feng Jingjia's "accidental death"; before the police's investigation came to a final conclusion, the Feng family couldn't wait to prepare for Feng Jingjia's burial.

Others find it strange to mention it. If Feng Jingjia was murdered, and the murderer has not yet been arrested, the Feng family is afraid that others will not know that Feng Jingjia died accidentally, and Feng Jingjia really wants to be resurrected in place. Crawled out of the tomb.

That's why there are rumors about Feng Jingjia's murder. Maybe Feng Jingjia was killed by Feng's family.The brothers and sisters of those rich people will be beaten to death when they compete for the family property, not to mention that the Feng family can be regarded as a rich person in Yunying, with many uncles and brothers and sisters in the family; , An example of sending brothers and sisters into the bureau as companions.

Feng Jingjia's death was strange, and the Feng family's attitude was also strange. Together, it looks like a tragedy caused by fighting in the nest.

If it didn't happen when this particular homicide happened frequently, it was very likely that the case would really be closed by accident.

But it sure wasn't an accident!

The surveillance at the crime scene was real, and the only explanation was that there was something wrong with the completely broken bottle.

It's a pity that the bottle was already smashed to pieces at the scene, and the fragments were collected by the police, but nothing was found.

As for the identities of these victims, it was not found whether there was any connection between them.

The scary thing is not that the murderer kills people, but that the murderer kills people completely randomly, which is an unstable factor that causes social chaos and panic.

And just at this time, rumors of ghosts and ghosts broke out in the Nancheng community, and now they are spreading all over the city.

Originally, the nearby residents complained to the Nancheng Police Station, saying that they could not sleep because of howling ghosts and wolves every night.

The Nancheng Police Station did not catch the person who made the noise, so they could only let the community management watch over it, and call the police directly if there is any situation.

Deliberately making noise at night to disturb the people can be regarded as disrupting the social order.

As a result, the community managers also began to say that they saw the woman in white at night, but they had another story in the police station.

They suspected that it might be sleepwalking, and expressed concern that the girl would sleepwalk out in her pajamas at night. If she met a bad guy, it would be a criminal case.

The police felt that what they said made sense.

As a result, on the third day, the police actually ran into a girl who was traveling at night.

The girl looked twelve or thirteen years old, wearing white pajamas, disheveled hair, and holding a white flower, which was exactly the same as the people who claimed to have met the woman in white.

The police came forward to inquire, only to find that the girl was not sleepwalking at all. She said with red eyes that she failed the entrance exam and was scolded by her parents, so she ran out in a moment of sadness.

She was not the woman in white that the nearby residents met before, but this also reminded the police that there were indeed nocturnal tribes here.

The little girl's parents also chased them out, and they were relieved to see that the little girl was doing well.

"Little sister, you also brought this flower from home?" The policeman was very surprised when he saw the white flower in the little girl's hand.

The flower is a paper flower, but if you look closely, one petal has been burned off.

The burned paper flowers are given to the deceased.

When the little girl's parents saw the flower she was holding, they were also startled, and hurriedly knocked the paper flower to the ground.

The little girl sobbed and said that it was left behind by a sister, and she picked it up to play with.

Just now the little girl came from the former site of Yunjia Shopping Mall, where there are surveillance videos.

From the surveillance, we can see people coming and going, all kinds of nocturnal tribesmen, people in strange clothes, and women in white clothes with disheveled hair striding past.

The woman in white really looked like a sleepwalker, and her movements seemed a little sluggish.

She walked into the street with uncoordinated hands and feet, as if she couldn't see the occasional people and vehicles around her.Walking to the green Nancheng Square, she bent down and put the flowers in her arms on the ground, and then saw that the flowers on the ground spontaneously ignited without fire.

"This is phosphorus fire. It's the will-o'-the-wisp in folklore." The police gathered behind the surveillance quickly judged, "White phosphorus has a low ignition point, and it is easy to spontaneously ignite after it comes into contact with oxygen; —it's green."

So this woman in white is a sleepwalker?Or a night worshipper pretending to be a ghost?

This day happened to be the day of Bai Jinse's funeral, and her relatives and friends came to the funeral home to offer flowers to her.

Bai Jinse doesn't have many close friends. Most of the relatives and friends who come here are the teachers and students of Yunying Media University, and then her colleagues and friends who were quite harmonious when she was working in Yunqi Publishing.

As Bai Jinse's close relative and niece, Bai Lihua was busy, and Luo Yuhuai also came to help with Bai Jinse's funeral.

Shi Yuning also came to mourn and pay respects, standing in the black clothes of the audience and listening to the mourning.

He noticed that the woman standing in the third place in the first row was exactly Sunny whom he had seen before.

When it came to the flower presenting session, I heard the master of ceremonies call and present flowers. When it was sunny, she put the white flowers in her arms in front of the portrait.

"Gan Qinglang presents flowers and pays homage to the remains."

After the master of ceremonies called out her name, Sunny stood up, but suddenly bent down, took out two white flowers and placed them next to the flowers she presented just now.

It turns out that Sunny's name is Gan Qinglang!

Sunny returned to his original position and stood, bowing his head in mourning.

And then Shi Yuning heard a familiar name again.

"A wooden peach presents flowers, pays homage to the remains."

Mutao, who was wearing black clothes and pants, held flowers in both hands and presented them in front of the portrait. After squatting down, she staggered and then slowly got up.

When she turned around, she saw her eyes were red and swollen.She quickly lowered her head, perhaps because she didn't want others to see her like this.

But why is Mutao here?What is her relationship with Bai Jinse?

Seeing Mu Tao's sad appearance, she should have a good relationship with Bai Jinse, right?
