Madness of the Heart

Wu Tong pleaded guilty, and the crime process and motive described were roughly the same as Mingshu's speculation, but there were some differences in the details.

Wu Tong has no memory of what happened before the age of four. He only remembers that his real name is Xiao Chun, his parents are Xiao Hu and Long Lianglian, and his hometown is a place called Hongning Village in the northwest.

The years when the real Wu Tong was alive were the darkest moments in Xiao Chun's life.She was always chained and fed with pigs and dogs. Once Wu Tong fell ill, she would be hung upside down and tortured.

Whenever she looked at Wu Shoulian and Wang Aixia from the upside-down perspective, she felt that their eyes were so distorted and disgusting that they were weeping bitterly.

She thought more than once that in the future she would kill Wu Tong, then Wu Shoulian, Wang Aixia, and the fortune teller.

These people who are not as good as pigs and dogs should all go to hell.

But she was too young, her hands, feet and even her neck were chained, so she was incapable of revenge.

And before she grew up, Wu Tong died.

Wu Shoulian and his wife were devastated, and Xiao Chun heard Wang Aixia say that if her daughter died, it would be meaningless for the shadow to live, so it is better to let the shadow "go down" to accompany Tongtong.

Xiao Chun didn't want to die, and tried to escape, but the fortune teller who killed her miserably saved her life with "one soul theory".

From then on, Xiao Chun became Wu Tong.

Because Wu Tong's "one soul" is kept on him, Xiao Chun is cared by Wu Shoulian and Wang Aixia.

She no longer has to wear heavy chains, let alone be beaten, eat food from animals, and has her own room.

Wu and Wang called her "Tongtong", bought her beautiful clothes worn by girls in the city, took her to the amusement park, ate Western food that she had never eaten before, and told her fairy tales like "Cinderella"... Sometimes even she herself feels in a trance that she is Wu Tong, the real Wu Tong.

But every time she saw those iron chains emitting a fishy smell, she would ring 12 o'clock in her mind, and found that all these were false and sinful.

She is Xiao Chun, the stolen and abused Xiao Chun, not Wu Tong, the good daughter of the Wu family!

She put the iron chains in a box and hid them under the bed in her room, and took a look at them almost every day. Every time she looked at them, she hated this animal family more.

The real Wu Tong never went to school because of illness, and it was Xiao Chun who studied.During the Spring Festival when he was in elementary school, Xiao Chun followed Wu and Wang to Dongye City to celebrate the New Year with many distant relatives.

Xiao Chun remembered this bustling city that looked like another world, and also remembered a sister from a wealthy family——Liang Lu.

Xiao Chun, who grew up, became the most beautiful girl in Wancui Village. Her smile was very sweet, her eyes were clear, and she looked very innocent.

Wang Aixia believed that this was her daughter Wu Tong. Tongtong's soul was completely alive, and only her Tongtong could have such an innocent smile.

Xiao Chun has long been good at disguising, playing the role of Wu Tong superbly, the whole person seems to be born in the honey, grew up in the honey.

The only puzzling thing is that Xiao Chun seems to like exercising his arms very much. He practiced pull-ups with the boys, bought dumbbells and lifted them at home every day.

Wang Aixia asked: "Tongtong, what are you doing?"

Xiao Chun smiled: "Mom, I'm training my body."

Wang Aixia vaguely felt that one shouldn't always lift dumbbells when practicing body shape, but she didn't continue to ask.

When Wang Aixia turned around, the smile on Xiao Chun's face disappeared in an instant, his dark eyes stared at her back, and he said silently——Of course it was to strangle you and Wu Shoulian.

This year's Spring Festival, Xiao Chun decided to do it.

Before this, she had been planning for a long time. For example, she said that she was an adult and wanted to seek development in a big city, so she urged Wu Shoulian to make several phone calls to Liang Lu's parents.

After that, he persuaded Wu and Wang to move to the city with him, as if it were to accompany his daughter.

Wu and Wang have lived in Wancui Village all their lives. Although they have also been in the city, they still feel unaccustomed to it.So Xiao Chun changed his mind and advised them to accompany him to live in the city for a while, and when she got used to the rhythm of the city, they would return to Wancui Village.

This request is very reasonable, and of course Wu Shoulian and Wang Aixia will not refuse.

Xiao Chun immediately spread the word in the village that "Wu's family will go to the city to join wealthy relatives", and Wu Shoulian and Wang Aixia also told many villagers that they would go to the city with their daughter after the Spring Festival.

The truth is adulterated, the lie is true, and Wu Shoulian is showing off, someone asked him for proof-your family is going to the city to seek refuge with the rich?He didn't deny it either.When Xiao Chun invited the villagers to have a farewell banquet in the yard, the whole village believed that the Wu family really wanted to go to the city for a better life.

At this time, Wu Shoulian and Wang Aixia had been strangled to death by Xiao Chun with iron chains.

During the Spring Festival, the sound of firecrackers in the countryside is constant, and every household is visiting relatives. Few people pay attention to what happened to the neighbors.Xiao Chun drugged the wine, and after Wu and Wang passed out, he strangled them to death one by one.

Wu Shoulian actually woke up at the last moment.He struggled desperately and kicked the dining table down with a "boom".

But it was useless, the sound of firecrackers outside was deafening, and no one knew what was going on in the Wu family.

After confirming that the two were dead, Xiao Chun threw away the chains and brutally dismembered the corpses on the floor of his living room.

The meat from Wu and Wang's legs was picked off, and the rest was thrown into the pockets that had been prepared long ago.

After Xiao Chun hid the corpse, he returned home, cleaned the floor, and lit incense to dispel the strong smell of blood.

Then, she did the most creepy thing - stewed the leg meat of Wu and Wang, mixed it with thick sauce, and made it into simmered dumplings, which was one of the important dishes of the flowing water banquet.

On the day of the running water banquet, some of the villagers did not come because they were visiting relatives in other villages, and some of them came, but they all came and went in a hurry because they were also celebrating the Spring Festival at home.While greeting the guests, Xiao Chun called "Mom" and "Dad" from time to time.No one really saw Wu Shoulian and Wang Aixia until the end of the afternoon banquet.

But the illusion created by Xiao Chun has convinced them that both Wu and Wang are there, but they are too busy to greet them.

At night, Xiao Chun hummed a song to deal with the mess on the table.

Saozi is added to many dishes, and almost every villager who goes to the banquet has tasted it.

They deserve it.

Back then, when she was four years old, she was stolen to Wancui Village. No one called the police. She was beaten by a fortune teller, and no one helped her.Later, she lost her identity and became Wu Tong. The villagers pretended to be confused and thought she was Wu Tong.

At the beginning, as long as one person stood up, the tragedy that happened to her could be stopped.

However, no one spoke up for her. They were like a group of indifferent spectators, allowing the tragedy to be staged vigorously.

Don't they deserve retribution?

Is cannibalism counted as retribution?

Xiao Chun is very smart, knowing that if it is made into sliced, shredded or stewed meat, people may find it abnormal, but Xunzi will not.The meat is chopped and juiced, and then added to other dishes as condiments. No one will notice that the small mouthful of saozi they just swallowed is actually made of human flesh.

In the empty home, Xiao Chun sat for half the night.

The great revenge has been avenged, and she felt extremely relaxed. Looking at the rusty iron chain, she felt that it was not so painful.

Leaving here and going to Dongye City, she will start a new life.

In the early morning, Xiao Chun closed the door of Wu's house, took Wu Shoulian's tricycle with a small amount of luggage, and drove to the county railway station.

She left the mutilated bodies of Wu and Wang in Wancui Village, and the iron chains that bound her were also left in Wancui Village.

She thought she was finally free.

The cruel reality is that she can no longer live like a normal person.

Accustomed to pretending, the hatred in his heart has not faded because of the death of Wu and Wang. Xiao Chun is eager to kill, and only when he ends a life will he feel that he is still alive.

She attributed this to her failure to personally kill the culprit—Wu Tong.

During the day, she is the innocent and sweet receptionist of "Jianjia Bailu". At night, she kills chickens and fish in the rented house, and later develops to coax and kill stray dogs nearby.

Her sweetness can not only deceive people, even dogs are willing to follow her.

The light that Li Tianyue sees through the crack of her door every night is emitted from her mobile phone.She turned off the lights and watched with gusto videos of killings from around the world.

It wasn't until later that she accidentally discovered Sha Chun's secret and realized that she finally had a chance to kill someone.

Killing chickens and dogs is not as good as killing people.

"You said that Sha Chun looks like Wu Tong, so I will kill her. Actually, it's not. How old was Wu Tong when she died. I don't know what she would be like if she could grow up." Xiao Chun smiled dryly, stroked Hair, "But if she can really grow up, then I might have been tortured to death long ago. I killed Sha Chun only because I had the opportunity to kill her, and she also wanted to die, as long as Yu Xiaocheng hid Sha Chun as promised. Chun’s hand, you won’t find me.”

Mingshu said: "You deceived everyone in Wancui Village, and you still want to replicate your so-called 'success' in Dongye City?"

Xiao Chun shook his head lightly, looking very helpless, "You policemen in the city are really powerful, Yu Xiaocheng is so like a murderer, you don't believe that he is the murderer."

"You also said that Yu Xiaocheng 'like' a murderer." Ming Shu said: "Since he looks like a murderer, how can he be a real murderer."

Xiao Chun smiled bitterly, and suddenly said: "Actually, I helped Sha Chun by killing Sha Chun."

Ming Shu asked: "How did you find out about the matter between Sha Chun and Yu Xiaocheng?"

"I put a monitor in Sha Chun's classroom." Xiao Chun said, "But it's not because of Yu Xiaocheng, but because of Wu Zhen."

A few months ago, Xiao Chun noticed that Wu Zhen's communication with Sha Chun was different from Sha Chun's communication with other people, and seemed to be more intimate.

But Xiao Chun really couldn't figure out why Wu Zhen, an old man, was favored by Sha Chun.

Out of curiosity, Xiao Chun secretly hid a monitor in Sha Chun's classroom.It was too easy for her, the receptionist, to arouse anyone's suspicion at all.

Relying on this monitor, she got a glimpse of the secrets of Wu Zhen and Sha Chun, and then learned the secrets of Sha Chun and Yu Xiaocheng, and later learned that Yu Xiaocheng was not persuaded by Sha Chun and refused to join this series of death games .

"So you stood in front of Sha Chun." Ming Shu said.

"Sha Chun was in a very bad state at that time, and she hoped that someone would help her end her life." Xiao Chun said, "Of course I am the most suitable one."

After helping Wu Zhen "suicide", Shachun lived in fear all day long, eager to find her "successor", but the person who had the most hope of helping her - Yu Xiaocheng - finally chose to continue preparing for the college entrance examination .

Xiao Chun stepped in, threatened and lured, and promised to create an illusion of death for Sha Chun, who was of the same quality as Wu Zhen, forcing Sha Chun to force Yu Xiaocheng to agree to hide the severed hand in the No. [-] Middle School.

On August 8, Xiao Chun rushed to the Performing Arts Group after get off work and hid in the place he had inquired about in advance.After finishing the last performance, Sha Chun arrived late at night for a death promise.

Xiao Chun strangled Sha Chun with a hemp rope—just like strangling Wu Shoulian and Wang Aixia with iron chains.

Sha Chun struggled instinctively before dying, and this action gave Xiao Chun great pleasure.

She thought, killing Wu Tong should be like this!

"By the way, I want to tell you one more thing." At the end, Xiao Chun said: "Sha Chun didn't kill Wu Zhen, Wu Zhen committed suicide."

Mingshu asked: "Shachun told you?"

Xiao Chun nodded, "I believe it, believe it or not. Anyway, it's dead now."

Throughout the interrogation process, Xiao Chun did not show the slightest bit of guilt.

She said: "I killed three people in total. Shouldn't Wu Shoulian and Wang Aixia deserve to die? And the fortune teller, he deserves to die too. Unfortunately, I can't find him anymore."

"As for Sha Chun..." Xiao Chun was silent for a moment, "I admit that I killed her to satisfy my desire to kill, but didn't I help her indirectly? What would she do without me? She lived Suffering so hard, she has lost hope of continuing to live, and that coward Yu Xiaocheng refuses to help her. Although I killed her, I also saved her."

Mingshu stood up, "Sophistry."

Xiao Chun was startled, and asked, "Mr. Ming, will you help me find my biological parents? You promised me."

The suspicion was finally cleared, Yu Xiaocheng burst into tears, and said while crying, "It's really not me! I didn't kill anyone!"

Zhou Yuan ordered a cup of the strawberry Taotao that Mingshu gave to him last time, and put it in front of Yu Xiaocheng.

Yu Xiaocheng's face was full of tears, and he looked at him in confusion.

"My name is Zhou Yuan, and I'm a technical investigator in the serious crime team." Zhou Yuan is not very good at communicating with people, but he forced himself to face Xiaocheng as someone who has experienced it, "When I was studying, I was just like you. A person who is very hardworking but not very talented. With the same score in the test, others only need to listen carefully in class. After class, they can play basketball, football, and do whatever they want, but I have to spend all my time studying.”

Yu Xiaocheng opened his mouth dumbly.

"In the first year of the college entrance examination, I failed. I was very confused. I felt that I was worthless. No matter how hard I tried, I couldn't compare with those students who easily got into the prestigious school. I thought, what's the use of repeating another year? But if I don't I didn’t even get to go back to college.” Zhou Yuan’s voice trembled slightly, with strong personal emotions, as if he had returned to those days of constant struggle and self-doubt, “I still miss college, so I chose to go back to college. .The homeroom teacher I met when I was repeating my studies was a math teacher, and she changed me."

Yu Xiaocheng leaned forward slightly, this is a posture that wants to listen.

"She told me that everyone is a different individual. If you are good at something, you must be not good at it. It is not advisable to use what you are not good at to be better than others." Zhou Yuan continued: "I Said, but my grades are poor. The teacher said, "The grades are not bad, it depends on who you compare with. You are in the best class in the best middle school. Is your grade hovering in the middle, is it bad?""

Yu Xiaocheng finally said, "I... I am also in the best class in the best middle school."

Zhou Yuan nodded, "That's why I said we are very similar. In that year, the teacher talked to me from time to time, encouraged me, and helped me think about the direction of life. When I applied for the university, she told me that I had a sense of justice and He is very careful and diligent, and he may be a good policeman in the future.”

Yu Xiaocheng said softly: "So you..."

"So I really became a policeman." Zhou Yuan said: "I'm not particularly talented, not as talented as those talented technical investigators, but I also have my role. My diligence and hard work were not in vain. The case I was involved in was one of the key clues that I found the real culprit."

Yu Xiaocheng took a deep breath, his eyes opened wide.

"Understood?" Zhou Yuan said: "Working hard and being diligent is never a shame. You are just temporarily stuck in confusion and haven't found your own direction yet."

After saying this, Zhou Yuan stood up and pointed to Strawberry Taotao on the table, "You are still young, and you still have enough time to change. In fact, you have not given up on yourself under Sha Chun's persuasion, which has proved that you are a Brave people. Yu Xiaocheng, you can be more brave, just like..."

Zhou Yuan lowered his head, his voice became softer, "Just like me in the year when I repeated my studies."

Yu Xiaocheng took Strawberry Taotao, "Why invite me to drink this?"

Zhou Yuan smiled, "Although I am older than you, I have also fallen into self-denial and self-doubt. Last time when I thought I had no talent, my talented and hard-working leader bought me a drink This, and then tell me that I'm an indispensable player for him."

Yu Xiaocheng's palms trembled, and for the first time he felt a ray of light pouring into his gloomy future.

"I'm not as smart as him, so I can only imitate him and encourage you." Zhou Yuan said softly, "Come on, Yu Xiaocheng, don't let down that hardworking and brave you."

The boiler factory that Chu Can said was on the edge of Nancheng District. Some employees confirmed that they had seen Chu Can, but because too much time had passed, the monitoring had been covered.As for whether Zhou Qian's body really "disappeared" in the boiler factory, it is impossible to find out.

Fang Yuanhang remembered Mingshu's advice—Chu Can has a habit of "that aspect", Zhou Qian may not be the only victim, but no matter how interrogated, Chu Can only admits to killing Zhou Qian and intentionally hurting Liu Mei.

However, the known clues proved that what Chu Can did was purely personal, and had nothing to do with the Chu family, nor with Chu Qing's secretary Shui Xun.

The Shachun case has been solved, but the person who put the "dominos" together behind his back has not yet appeared.Mingshu rarely went home, sat on the sofa in his pajamas, listened to the sound of water splashing from the bathroom, but still thought about the case.

Xiao Yuan came out of the bathroom wearing a bathrobe, Mingshu came back to his senses, "Brother."

Xiao Yuan held the towel, "Huh?"

Mingshu knelt on the sofa and spread his hands, "Brother, let me blow your hair."

Xiao Yu'an approached, with a burst of heat and the light fragrance of bath liquid, he held Mingshu's chin and squeezed it lightly, and said with a smile: "Why do I think that your posture is not to help me blow my hair, but to hug me hug you?"
