The victim of this case, Yuan He, was a white-collar worker who was only 24 years old at the time of the accident.

Nie Wenxi followed Ye Xiangdi and drove to Yuan He's home in Xinghe Apartment in the south of the city. This single apartment on the top floor was decorated very warmly, and the overall decoration style was fresh, from beige floral wallpaper to forest-style furniture. From the continuous succulent potted plants on the balcony and the carefully pruned flower arrangements on the dining table, it can be seen that the owner is a little girl with exquisite life and full of fun.

When the two arrived at the apartment, the body had already been taken away. There was a seal in front of the apartment door, and the doors and windows were tightly closed.

Nie Wenxi glanced at Ye Xiangdi, and saw that he picked up the seal without any psychological burden, and walked in the door swaggeringly. Nie Wenxi hesitated for a second, and followed decisively.

In the room, the place where the body fell was drawn with chalk in a human figure. Various signs at the crime scene showed that Yuan He's death process was very quiet. She fell on her back, and there were no signs of fighting or struggling around her. If it wasn't for those eyes being seized by fear, she would even seem to be sleeping on a soft carpet.

Different from the victim, it was the poor cat whose blood was scattered all over the place when it was beheaded, which was shocking to see.

Nie Wenxi has seen in the case file that there is no sign of outsiders breaking into Yuan He's house, and there is no sign of the door and windows being pried. Unlike the previous victims, Yuan He lived alone and died on the count of A few days later, the corpse emitted a peculiar smell, and the neighbors noticed the abnormality and called the police.

When the police arrived, the door was locked inward.

From the perspective of criminal case detection, this is a near-perfect secret room murder case. There are only traces of Yuan He's activities in the room, no intruders, no suspects, and no valuable clues.

But looking at it from another angle, the incident is much clearer.

Ye Xiangdi walked around the room and sniffed, "I always feel that there is a strange smell." He looked at Nie Wenxi, who sniffed lightly a few times: "It seems to have a smell of birds? "

"It shouldn't be!" Ye Xiangdi frowned. Yuan He's family only raised one cat. There were neither edible poultry such as chickens, ducks, geese, nor pet birds such as parrots and mynas. Why was it so important? bird smell?

Not only that, after some searching, the two also found a dark feather on the carpet of Yuan He's dead body.

"Didn't the criminal investigation say that they have come to deal with the scene? They didn't see such an obvious thing? Shouldn't it?!" Nie Wenxi scratched his head with a puzzled expression.

"Probably because I really can't see it." Ye Xiangdi looked thoughtfully at the feather pinched between his fingers by Nie Wenxi.If the judgment of the criminal investigation side is correct, and this case is indeed within the investigation scope of the Social Intelligence Bureau, then it is reasonable that the seemingly ordinary feather in Nie Wenxi’s hand has not been found after several collections of physical evidence—after all, it belongs to the The things of monsters are invisible to normal people.

After packing the feathers in the evidence bag, the two of them carefully checked all over the house, and after confirming that there was nothing missing, they turned back in a hurry.

When he returned to the group, Lu Yu was already waiting in the meeting room with Ming Wei and Qiu Hong. There were several file bags piled up in front of Lu Yu, which contained the information of several victims before Yuan He.

Seeing Nie Wenxi and Ye Xiangdi enter the door, Lu Yu knocked on the table with his backhand, attracting everyone's attention: "Since everyone is here, let's have a short meeting first, and you each talk about your gains Bar."

In line with the fine tradition of giving priority to women, Ming Wei took the lead to speak: "The handover procedures for the case have been completed. I have sent Yuan He's body to Dr. Xie, and I have handed over the other case materials to the boss."

Lu Yu looked at the file bag in front of him and nodded: "Where are the others?"

Ye Xiangdi took out the evidence bag containing the feathers and handed it over: "We conducted a re-examination of the crime scene, and the situation is basically consistent with the police investigation. But one thing worth noting is that we smelled a strong smell in the victim's home. There was a strong bird smell, and a piece of black feather was found. The criminal investigators should not have noticed such an obvious thing, so the preliminary judgment, ordinary people should not be able to see this thing."

Lu Yu was playing with the evidence bag in his hand. It was a pure black feather, probably because it had been out of the body for a long time. It looked a bit bleak, not good-looking, but it led their investigation ideas to a kind of bird monster.

"Speaking of birds, I saw something like this in Yuan He's diary," Ming Wei leaned forward and took the one belonging to Yuan He from the pile of file bags in front of Lu Yu, and rummaged through to find a broken book. In the handbook with a flower cover, I hurriedly flipped through a few pages, and read, "... At midnight, I woke up from a dream. In the empty room, there was suddenly the sound of spreading wings. Countless birds were about to fly, and their wings were fighting. It's deafening... as if implying that I'm about to break through this chaotic status quo and welcome a new life..."

"Hey, silly girl, she must have been stalked by a bird demon! New life, thanks to her being able to connect." Ye Xiangdi shook his head.

Lu Yu refused to comment, but looked at the others: "Do you have anything to add?"

"Yes!" The Buddhist layman stood up with a smile on his face, "I went to see the forensic doctor who was in charge of the autopsy before, and the internal organs of several victims disappeared without any external injuries. , also ruled out the possibility of dissolving the internal organs through injection of drugs. However, Dr. Xie found many small wounds in the bodies of several victims during the re-examination, and we agreed that these wounds were signs of pecking."

"Traces of bird pecking?" Ming Wei clicked his tongue, "Okay, brothers, we have good news and bad news now, which one do you want to hear first?"

The three old partners didn't say a word, only the new baby raised his hand: "Sister Wei, what's the good news?"

"The good news is that all our clues pointed us in the same direction—the perpetrator is a monster, the goal is clear and there is no disagreement, as long as we all work together and work together, we will be able to solve the case sooner or later of!"

"What about the bad news?"

"The bad news is that we still don't know what the broken bird that committed the crime is?" Ming Wei spread her hands, "Boss, what do you think?"

Lu Yu has a good temper and doesn't like to restrict the temperament of these people under his command, so even when handling the case, the atmosphere is very relaxed. It wasn't until Ming Wei handed over the topic that he took it over and said, "I have some ideas, But not sure yet."

"Let's talk about it, it's better than being confused now." Ming Wei is good at dealing with corpses. If she were a demon, she would have nothing to do, so she usually stays in the group to do internal work.

"That's right, boss, let's talk about it." Ye Xiangdi echoed, "I know a lot of birds and monsters, but I really don't have a clue about this kind of one who likes to eat internal organs without leaving wounds."

Lu Yu was silent for a moment: "I'm not sure, I just think the characteristics are a bit similar. Have you ever heard of a human sparrow?"

Several people present shook their heads in unison.

"I've only seen information about this kind of black sparrow by chance. It's an omnivorous bird that eats everything, but generally doesn't take the initiative to attack humans. Unless, by chance, it has eaten human flesh...someone who has tasted human taste Hei Que will give up the original recipe and change to cannibalism, especially human offal." Lu Yu paused, "Also, I hate cats very much."

"Then how did it manage to eat up its internal organs without leaving any wounds?" Nie Wenxi asked.

"..." Lu Yu suddenly fell silent.

"What's wrong..." Nie Wenxi was worried for a moment, and quietly asked Ming Wei who was sitting next to him, "Did I say something wrong?"

Ming Wei shook her head, and before she could speak, she heard Lu Yu speak again: "I just glanced briefly at that time, and I can't remember many things clearly."

Ye Xiangdi felt that Lu Yu seemed a little hesitant today, not like his usual way of doing things, and Ye Xiangdi was impatient, so he couldn't hold back and urged: "Then where did you see it, boss?" ? Let’s look for information!”

"...I saw it in Yan Ting's notebook." Lu Yu shrugged, "He took that notebook with him to Yucheng."

"Then give him a call... Ouch!" Before Ye Xiangdi finished speaking, Ming Wei stomped on his foot severely, and immediately stopped talking.

Lu Yu didn't notice the small movements below. Whenever the name Yan Ting appeared, it would grab his heartstrings and occupy most of his attention.

"...Boss?" Ming Wei called out cautiously.

"Hey..." Lu Yu came back to his senses, "Well, let me recall the information again, and you can also look for it through your own channels. Yan Ting is just an ordinary person, and the information he compiled may not be complete."

Everyone echoed, but except for Nie Wenxi, the other three knew that Yan Ting's information should be the most complete.

Yan Ting, the youngest deputy department-level cadre since the establishment of the Social Intelligence Bureau, Luyu's senior and ex(?) fiance, was just transferred to Yucheng a while ago as the deputy director of the Yucheng Social Intelligence Bureau. An ordinary person, Yan Ting's work ability is enough to convince all the strangers he has worked with.

Before Ming Wei got really close to Lu Yu, she was already convinced by Lu Yu's picky eyes.It is said that the two have been together since college. Yan Ting, who has a good family background, can be said to have entered this alien management system without any foundation, but fortunately he is very capable and his family is well-off. With power and power, he made his way to the top, and got into the management at a young age.

Lu Yu graduated a few years later than him. When he entered the Social Intelligence Bureau, Yan Ting already had a certain right to speak. Holding the position of real power, everyone was not without emotions at that time, including Ming Wei who didn't care much about these things, they were a little bit unhappy with this paratrooper.

However, Lu Yu has a good temper and is really capable, so after going back and forth, everyone is convinced.

A while ago, Yan Ting was transferred, and Lu Yu took the position logically, but because of the transfer, the two seemed to have a lot of conflicts. When Yan Ting took office, they failed to get rid of the marriage certificate, and the original marriage period was even infinite. Postponed.

During this period of time, Yan Ting's name was like a land mine, it would explode at some point, and no one dared to mention it.Ming Wei sighed, sandwiched between the old and new bosses, it's really hard to do.
