Madness of the Heart

Wang Ying's reaction has indirectly shown that while Wu Zhen "cultivated" Sha Chun, he also instilled similar ideas in Wang Ying.But Wu Zhen chose Sha Chun in the end, perhaps because he found that Wang Ying could not be an excellent "successor".

Yi Fei asked: "You and Wu Zhen got to know each other because of making short films. 'Liuguang' should be found by your academy, right? Now there are so many small film and television companies, why did you find 'Liuguang'?"

Wang Ying became more and more nervous, "I... I don't understand why you came to check on me."

Yi Fei paused for a few seconds, looked into Wang Ying's eyes and said seriously: "Because Wu Zhen was involved in a criminal case. You are one of the important people he has come into contact with. We need your cooperation."

Wang Ying whispered, "May I ask what the criminal case is?"

"In the investigation stage, the details cannot be disclosed." Yi Fei said: "Student Wang, you don't have to be afraid. If I ask anything, just tell me what you know. Be careful and don't lie."

Wang Ying quickly shook her head, "How dare I lie to the police!"

Yi Fei smiled, "Relax. Now answer my last question—why did you choose 'Liuguang' among many small film and television companies?"

"I was the person in charge of that event. In fact, although the event was organized by the student union of the college, in fact... everything was basically done by me alone." Wang Ying kept looking at the desktop while speaking, which was the first time for many people Facing the instinctive action of the criminal police.

"Can I understand that you organized the whole event by yourself?" Yi Fei asked: "Why? Also, do many people know that you are busy with the event alone?"

Wang Ying sighed, "Because they have used me as a coolie since freshman year. I don't have any talent. The only advantage is that I am more diligent than others."

Yi Fei said softly, "The last question."

"Everyone in the student union should know about it." Wang Ying said, "Other people who know me should know about it too. It's no secret. Then I chose 'Liuguang' because I saw the flyer on the college bulletin board."

"flyer?"

"Well." Wang Ying explained: "There is a bulletin board downstairs in each college, posting information such as postgraduate entrance examinations, going abroad, and student activities. For a while, I was thinking about which film and television company to contact, and then I saw the promotional leaflet of 'Liuguang'."

Yi Fei said: "Will the film and television company put up leaflets in the University of Medicine?"

Wang Ying was startled, "I don't think I've seen similar leaflets before."

Yi Fei asked: "You chose 'Liuguang' just because of a promotional leaflet?"

"In fact, I was a little afraid of choosing. This flyer suddenly appeared, and I thought it might be fate." Wang Ying said: "And unlike other film and television companies, they focus on short campus videos."

Yi Fei suddenly frowned.

"Streamer" focuses on short campus videos?

Nothing at all!

The business focus of "Liuguang" has always been TV dramas and web drama scripts. When did you focus on short campus videos?

Wang Ying shrank her shoulders and asked uneasily, "Did I say something wrong? I... I didn't lie."

Yi Fei asked: "Did you still keep that leaflet?"

Wang Ying shook her head, "I lost it a long time ago, but I took a picture."

Yi Fei took Wang Ying's mobile phone, and immediately sent the photo to his and Ming Shu's mobile phones, and then looked at the photo carefully.

The flyer is very campus-like, emphasizing that the company has cooperated with many primary and secondary schools, colleges and vocational schools over the years to produce a large number of excellent short videos.

As for the real main business of "Liuguang", the leaflet did not mention a word.

When seeing Wu Zhen's name, Yi Fei whispered to himself: "This is..."

On the flyer, Wu Zhen was actually written as the chief screenwriter of the "Liuguang" campus business.

Wang Ying rubbed her hands lightly, "I think choosing another company is worse than choosing this company that focuses on campus short videos, so I went to 'Liuguang' with a leaflet, saying that I want to cooperate with Teacher Wu."

Although it has not been verified, Yi Fei has been able to confirm that this leaflet is a forgery.

"Have you shown the flyer to the 'Streamer' people?" Yi Fei asked, "What was their reaction?"

Wang Ying said: "I didn't show them directly, but I remember I threw the flyer in 'Liuguang', and the staff should be able to see it. If there is a reaction... I don't know."

Yi Fei nodded and asked, "You and Wu Zhen communicated frequently because of this event. Since when did he start discussing the topic of 'effort is useless' with you? How far did you discuss it?"

Wang Ying's mood calmed down for a while just now, but when she heard this question, she became nervous again, "I can't tell exactly when, Mr. Wu said many times, what can tell me that I am hardworking, and so on. He began to talk about himself, always emphasizing that for mediocre people, hard work is useless..."

Yi Fei said: "I guess, you were in a very bad mood during that time."

"Yes." Wang Ying lowered her head again, "I thought I was not good at first, but in fact I am indeed stupid than most of my classmates. What Teacher Wu said made me feel that I might as well die."

After thinking about it, Yi Fei asked the key point, "Did Wu Zhen mention his death plan to you?"

Wang Ying's eyes widened all of a sudden, "What? A death plan?"

Yi Fei observed Wang Ying for a long time, "He just keeps telling you that mediocre and hard-working people are sad, right?"

"Well, after the short video was shot, we stopped communicating." Wang Ying suddenly realized, "Does Teacher Wu want to... kill me?"

Yi Fei said a few words of reassurance, and then asked: "Who are the people who can usually post leaflets on the bulletin board of your college?"

"Part-time students and faculty members are basically not business people." Wang Ying said: "Most colleges and universities are like this."

Yi Fei then asked: "Before you came into contact with Wu Zhen, did you have a strange feeling?"

Wang Ying didn't understand, "What strange feeling?"

"For example, occasionally I feel that someone is watching you and following you." Yi Fei said: "After all, you girls are sometimes more sensitive and have strong observation skills."

"You put it this way..." Wang Ying thought for a while, "In the first half of this year, I did feel that someone was watching me, but I didn't know who it was. It might be an illusion."

"Is it on campus?"

"Ah."

After leaving Dongye Medical University, Yi Fei went straight to "Liuguang" and showed the flyer to Wu Zhen's boss, director of screenwriting department Ou Xianghe.

"We have never made this kind of leaflet." Ou Xianghe didn't seem surprised, "I noticed this leaflet before, and it was printed by Wu Zhen himself."

Yi Fei asked: "Are you sure?"

Ou Xianghe was stunned for a moment, and then asked: "If it wasn't he who printed it, who else would it be? Didn't Wu Zhen start to transform last year? In fact, the quality of the short videos for the government, schools, and companies is not very important. The most important thing is publicity. He wants to make quick money, so it's normal to go to school to post this kind of leaflets."

Normal or abnormal, we can't generalize it. This kind of thing may be normal for other screenwriters of "Liu Guang", but it is outrageously wrong for Wu Zhen.

Wu Zhen was trying to instigate Sha Chun to become his "successor", so why would he go to colleges and universities to post flyers in order to make quick money?

The flyer can only be posted by the man behind the scenes, and the reason for posting it is because he discovered the "seed" of Wang Ying.

After clearing up the clues, Yi Fei immediately called Mingshu.

Ming Shu was standing downstairs of a semi-new residential building in Dongcheng District, looking up at a poorly made signboard - Li Feichang.

From time to time, young people walked into the residential building, chatting whether to buy a catty or half a catty this time, and people kept coming out of the building, carrying plastic bags in their hands.

The words "Li Feichang" were also written on the plastic bag.

Among all the food, the fat sausage is the most unacceptable for Mingshu.He frowned and walked upstairs.

On the second floor, "Li Feichang", which opened less than two months ago, has a good business. Not only has it gained a reputation in the neighborhood, but foodies from other districts even drove over to buy it.

A man in his 30s was busy in the kitchen wearing an apron, and a boy who looked less than 20 years old was confirming the customer's order and collecting money.

Mingshu looked at the man, and from the man's attire and aura, he could no longer see the appearance of an excellent salesman.

But hard work pays off.

The man is Luo Ganfeng.

Luo Ganfeng disappeared in the first half of the year. After investigation, he did not leave Dongye City. Instead, he rented an old house and made a living selling fat sausages and stewed vegetables.

Customers thought the boss's surname was Li, and called him "Brother Li" and "Xiao Li".

Luo Ganfeng is in good condition, not as described by Manager Luo, and even more different from Wu Zhen and Sha Chun.

In his eyes, there was an ordinary but distinct vitality.

After the peak in the store had passed, Mingshu walked up to Luo Ganfeng and showed his ID.

Luo Ganfeng's reaction was intriguing. He was a little nervous in his calmness, and relieved in his nervousness. He seemed to be mentally prepared and waiting for the police to come to his door.

Mingshu said, "You seem to know why I'm looking for you."

"Because of Wu Zhen." Luo Ganfeng took out a bottle of honey tea from the refrigerator and put it in front of Mingshu, "He's dead, isn't he?"

Mingshu and Luo Ganfeng met their eyes, and said after a while: "It seems that I have found the right person. Wu Zhen regards you as his kind, and hopes that you can help him complete his death, and then hand over the baton to you, and you will look for you again." The next 'inheritor' - did he tell you all this?"

Luo Ganfeng's cheeks trembled slightly, "You have already checked it out very clearly."

Mingshu said, "But I still need your help."

There were no customers in the shop, and the boy was scrubbing the stove in the kitchen.

Luo Ganfeng turned around and shouted: "Xiaojun, you go outside for a while, and close the door for me by the way."

Xiaojun said: "Brother, are you not doing business?"

"I'll do it later." Luo Ganfeng said.

Xiaojun looked very well-behaved, didn't ask any more questions, changed his clothes and went out.

Luo Ganfeng said: "My younger brother, my only relative."

Mingshu nodded, and put the recording pen on the table.

Luo Ganfeng took a look, "Wu Zhen and I met because of filming promotional videos. I was in a bad state of work at the time, and when a store wanted to shoot a video reflecting the work of employees, our manager wanted me to adjust my mood, so he let me Take charge of this."

"Well, Manager Luo told me." Mingshu asked, "Did you find Wu Zhen yourself?"

"Yes." Luo Ganfeng said: "I am not well-educated, I don't know how to write copywriting, and I don't know much about photography. I can only search the Internet casually. I went to 'Liuguang' and several other companies that provide similar services. I finally chose 'Streamer'."

Mingshu asked: "The reason?"

Luo Ganfeng said: "Wu Zhen's age makes me feel very reliable. Other companies introduce me to young people in their 20s."

Mingshu asked again: "In the process of making your choice, have you not been affected by any external influence?"

Luo Ganfeng looked confused, and shook his head after a few seconds, "It's all my own decision."

Mingshu sketched a few strokes in his notebook, like a heavenly book, only he could understand.

The situations of Luo Ganfeng and Yu Xiaocheng are somewhat similar, their choices don't seem to be affected by the mastermind behind the scenes, or they were, but they didn't realize it.

"Is there any problem?" Luo Ganfeng said.

"No." Mingshu said, "Go on."

"Because I didn't know how to make videos, I often communicated with Wu Zhen. Later, when I talked about work, I poured out some distress to him." Luo Ganfeng said: "I just feel that I have no talent, and it is very difficult to do anything. Category."

"Since then, your relationship has changed slightly." Ming Shu said, "Wu Zhen gradually made you feel that you are the same kind."

As if thinking of a very unpleasant experience, Luo Ganfeng wiped his face, "I used to feel pain because of being mediocre. Wu Zhen told me about his experience over the years, and I can fully understand it. At that time, I felt that life was very boring. I already Lost at the starting line, no matter how hard you try, it’s useless.”

The room was quiet for a while, Mingshu said: "Wu Zhen told you his plan when you were at your lowest?"

Luo Ganfeng took a long breath, "Mind if I smoke a cigarette?"

"up to you."

Luo Ganfeng lit a cigarette and smoked half a cigarette before saying: "He invited me to join his plan - after killing him, find another person just like he found me, and let that person kill me. He said, this is us The mediocre, the last revolt of the despised."

At the end of this sentence, Luo Ganfeng's voice trembled visibly.

Mingshu pushed the unopened honey tea in front of him.

He unscrewed it and downed most of the bottle in one go.

"Speak slowly." Mingshu said.

Luo Ganfeng nodded, "I was shocked at the time, but I felt like I was really convinced by him. I almost agreed to him."

"Almost?"

"I thought of my younger brother, who is Xiao Jun." Speaking of his younger brother, Luo Ganfeng's eyes showed a trace of tenderness, "Xiao Jun has not been in good health, if I just leave, who will take care of him. I want to fight again , at least save him medical expenses, and save his life in an emergency.”

Vulnerable people are the easiest to go crazy, but having an important person around them is enough to bring sanity back.

Ming Shu felt a lot of emotion in his heart. Wu Zhen and Sha Chun were the loneliest people in the city. They had been alone for a long time and had no worries. If they also had a relative that they had to take care of, they probably wouldn't be able to make it to the last step.

"I resigned because the pressure from work was too great. I couldn't take it anymore and wanted to live in a different way. But more importantly, I don't want to see Wu Zhen again." Luo Ganfeng said: "He He has told me all his plans, and if I quit suddenly, he will definitely not let me go."

Mingshu glanced across the room, "Aren't you afraid of being found by him when you open a shop?"

"I didn't open a shop right away." Luo Ganfeng lit another cigarette, "Dongye City is so big, I call it 'Li Feichang' here, not 'Luo Feichang', and he's not a policeman, so it's not so easy to find. And I I don’t have much savings, and if we don’t make more money, Xiaojun and I won’t be able to live.”

Mingshu looked into Luo Ganfeng's eyes, "One more thing, you know that Wu Zhen will die soon."

Luo Ganfeng's eyelids trembled.

"Don't be surprised." Ming Shu said: "You said you have been waiting for the police, of course it means that you expected Wu Zhen's death."

Luo Ganfeng smiled bitterly, "He is very desperate. If he can't find me, he will definitely go to someone else. There will always be someone who fulfills his wish, just like he fulfilled that professor's wish."

"Wait!" Mingshu interrupted, "Which professor?"

Luo Ganfeng said: "It was the person Wu Zhen helped to kill. In order to convince me, Wu Zhen used this professor as an example—"Professor is a master, right? Professor Qin still chose to die, even Professor Qin We all think that hard work is useless, what is there for us more mediocre people to struggle?'”

Ming Shu took a tight breath, "Did Wu Zhen say which university Professor Qin was from? When did he kill him?"

Luo Ganfeng was surprised by Mingshu's reaction, and stopped, "Ah..."

"Sorry." Mingshu adjusted his tone, "What is the full name of this Professor Qin? Which university did he come from? When did he die?"

Luo Ganfeng finished the remaining honey tea, "Qin Guoxing, Dongye Medical University, Wu Zhen didn't say when he 'suicide', but I guess from Wu Zhen's words, it should be around the Spring Festival this year."

Qin Guoxing, a professor at the University of Medical Sciences, this is undoubtedly an extremely important clue.

Mingshu saw the missed call when he got back to the car, and quickly called Yi Fei back.

"I'm basically sure now that the black hand behind everything is someone from the University of Medical Sciences." Yi Fei described Wang Ying's situation, "He is too familiar with the University of Medicine and Wang Ying. An outsider has repeatedly Appearing on campus can easily arouse suspicion, but if he is a faculty member of the University of Medical Sciences, he is not easy to be noticed when he steps on the spot and observes people. It was he who pushed Wang Ying in front of Wu Zhen for Wu Zhen to choose, just like It's like he pushed Long Tianhao and Wen He in front of Sha Chun!"

Mingshu didn't answer immediately.

"Xiao Ming?" Yi Fei said, "Are you listening?"

"Yes." Ming Shu said: "The 'dominos' before Wu Zhen may be a professor at the University of Medical Sciences."

Yi Fei was startled, "What?"

"You also think it's strange?" Mingshu hadn't started the car yet, "The professor of the University of Medical Sciences was killed earlier this year—at least the appearance should be like this. We have been investigating in the University of Medicine for so long. Why is there no news at all? No? Even if no one knows that he is dead, the school should know that he is missing, right? A professor is missing, this is not an ordinary incident."

Yi Fei whispered: "But the medical department is calm."

"The reasonable explanation is that this professor is still alive and well, and only Wu Zhen thinks he is dead." Ming Shu said, "I guess, this person may be behind the scenes, and Wu Zhen and Sha Chun are his experiments." Taste'!"

Once you have a target, the investigation will speed up.

Surprisingly, Dongye Medical University did not have a professor named Qin Guoxing.

Mingshu immediately changed his mind, "Check the homonym!"

After this investigation, the result is even more surprising. There was a pharmacy lecturer named "Qin Guosheng" in the School of Pharmacy of the University of Medical Sciences, but this lecturer died nine years ago.
