Madness of the Heart

Faced with the positive drug test report, Luo Xiaolong had to admit that on the day Luo Xiangfu was killed, he left the Binjiang clubhouse and went to the Chengwaiju Hot Spring Hotel in Beicheng District, where he hung out with beauties and smoked methamphetamine.

"I dare not say it! People like me can't afford to live outside the city. If I involve them, I...my mother and I will die!"

Drug-related cases are generally not handled by the serious crime team. Mingshu immediately notified Lu Yanzhou and passed the clues to the SWAT team.

"It turned out to be a residence outside the city." Lu Yanzhou said, "We've been observing this place for a while, why, now it's being targeted by your serious crimes team?"

"From what you're saying, is this residence outside the city somewhat famous?" Ming Shu asked.

"It's more than just a bit of a name, the managers thrown out by the outer city are actually all wage earners." Lu Yanzhou's tone was not very good, "We haven't done it for a long time, because we haven't dug out the hidden ones in the back. Even if all the managers and bosses are arrested now, it’s just to get rid of the cockroaches on the surface.”

"That you……"

"Ok?"

Mingshu sighed, "Forget it. Check it out first, and let me know if there is anything you need to do. Even if the serious crime team can't find anyone, you can still see if we can cooperate with the criminal and special forces."

"Okay, you can do your work." Lu Yanzhou smiled brightly, "If the case is solved, please ask me to make a skewer."

"Why didn't you invite me?"

"What's the relationship between us, you and I? You are mine, your money is mine, and your skewers are mine too."

Ming Shu: ...

Lu Yanzhou is a straight man, and a handsome straight man.Mingshu often feels unable to understand the thinking of a handsome straight man.

Xiao Yu'an never told him such words like "you are mine, your ×× is mine".

He thought about it for Xiao Yu'an, and immediately got goosebumps.

News came from the technical investigation team that it had been transferred to the public surveillance around the residence outside the city.He quickly returned to his senses and rushed towards the technical investigation team.

视频证实，罗小龙于7月2日下午4点32分进入城外居，直到3日早晨7点57分才离开，不具备杀害罗祥甫的条件。

The murderer is someone else.

On the other hand, the investigation of the businessmen who have interests with Luo Xiangfu has been completed. One of them is in arrears with Luo Xiangfu's debt, and the other has an unclear relationship with Kang Yu, but neither of them has time to commit crimes, and there is no sign of buying murder.

"Lao Luo drew a picture for me last year, and he promised 60 yuan at the beginning." Wang Xiong was doing wholesale business in the tea market. But an expert from the Painting and Calligraphy Association told me that Lao Luo’s paintings are not worth the price at all! I’m just doing a small business, and 60 is not a small amount. Fooling me! I asked a lot of people in their association, only to know that Lao Luo is only famous outside, and he specializes in the banner of the Municipal Painting and Calligraphy Association to make money for laymen. I confronted him face to face, and he also acquiesced."

"So you haven't paid?" Mingshu asked.

"I paid 5!" Wang Xiong stretched out five fingers, "I checked, his painting is only worth this amount, I won't pay more!"

Speaking of this, Wang Xiong suddenly sighed and shook his head one after another, "But if he had known that something would happen to him, let alone the remaining 55, 70 or 80, I will give it too! To save you from suspecting me. "

Mingshu sneered, "After paying the 5 yuan, do you still have contact?"

"Originally, he didn't have any. He was at a loss. In the future, he still wants to make a living selling calligraphy and paintings. He usually likes to carry them. It's impossible to break the face with me. I don't need to talk about his level everywhere." Wang Xiong said: "But he suddenly contacted me last month and asked me to give him 50 yuan. If it doesn't work, 30 yuan is fine."

Mingshu thought about the time, and it happened to coincide with the time when Luo Xiaolong asked for money.

It seems that Luo Xiangfu is not unwilling to give Luo Xiaolong money at all, it is really a little tight.

"As soon as I heard it, the matter was settled, why would he come to ask me for money?" Wang Xiong was in high spirits as soon as he mentioned money, "He called me twice on the phone, and then went to my store to make trouble. Once. I asked the security guard to coax him away, and warned him that if he came to make trouble again, he would be seen by the police station. Police brother, you believe me, his death really has nothing to do with me!"

Before sending him away, Mingshu asked one last question, "Who told you that Luo Xiangfu's paintings are not worth 60 yuan?"

Wang Xiong was confused, "Is this important?"

"Of course." Mingshu smiled, "Here, we pay attention to personal evidence and physical evidence. If you can't tell, I have reason to suspect that you are lying."

Wang Xiong hurriedly said: "I didn't! It's their vice president named Yin Qingdong. Luo Xiangfu first introduced me to this person."

"It's actually Yin Qingdong." After leaving the inquiry room, Xu Chun, the field team leader, said, "If it wasn't for his alibi at the time of the incident, I would have suspected him. On the surface, he and Luo Xiangfu are friends, but secretly they are trying to hide trick."

"Luo Xiangfu is making money from the association's business card. He's jealous after all. People's hearts are in the belly." Ming Shu strode forward, "Where's Cui Hou?"

Cui Hou was also a businessman who bought paintings from Luo Xiangfu. He opened a restaurant and had close contacts with Luo Xiangfu. He not only bought them himself, but also introduced many businesses to Luo Xiangfu.

Perhaps Luo Xiangfu didn't know until his death that this honest-looking man had already been entangled with his wife.

"Cui Hou admitted to intervening in Luo Xiangfu and Kang Yu's marriage, but he refused to admit that it was related to Luo Xiangfu's death." Xu Chun said: "He has been busy with business in other places some time ago, and the communication and traffic records have been checked, and the suspicion of committing the crime has been initially ruled out. .”

Mingshu suddenly said: "What kind of person is Luo Xiangfu?"

Xu Chun: "Huh?"

"The wife betrayed him, the son only had his money in his eyes, a few friends stabbed him in the back, and the people who helped him do business targeted his wife." Mingshu said: "There is no one around him who is sincere. To him. He's dead now, and no one feels sorry for him."

Xu Chun suddenly became sad, "Will I be like this when I'm old?"

Mingshu looked serious, "But these people are not murderers. Who else wants Luo Xiangfu to die more than them?"

This is undoubtedly a question that cannot be concluded for a while.

Mingshu returned to the office, wanted to smoke, opened the drawer, but found that the cigarettes and lighters inside were gone.

He raised his head and glanced around.

In the past, cigarettes disappeared inexplicably, and there was an extra pack of marshmallows where the cigarettes were originally placed.

He never eats this stuff, it's sticky and disgusting.

Holding the cotton candy and asking, I realized that it was the apprentice Fang Yuanhang who released it.

At that time, Fang Yuanhang was just a trainee policeman, full of youthful righteousness, and tried his best to persuade him—Master, smoking is harmful to your health, and our place is a public area, so you should stop smoking.

He asked for the cigarette back, but he didn't quit, but he smoked less.

After more than a year, the cigarettes in the drawer disappeared again, and Fang Yuanhang himself started smoking. This time the "thief" could not be Fang Yuanhang.

He thought for a while and pushed the drawer back.

Xiao Yu'an is the only person in the Criminal Investigation Bureau who will control his smoking.

Sometimes he himself finds it strange, obviously growing up in the same environment, he has always aimed at Xiao Yu'an, and even imitated Xiao Yu'an everywhere when he was a teenager, but he and Xiao Yu'an became completely different people after all.

Xiao Yu'an was extremely self-disciplined, never smoked or drank heavily, inside he was almost rigid, but on the outside he was mysterious, calm, and unflappable.

He has learned [-]% of the time, but he can't keep everything under control like Xiao Yuan.

When you are tired, you want to smoke, and when you are unhappy, you want to drink. You will be excited and depressed, but no matter how sad you are, just stay by Xiao Yuan's side for a while.

He was buried in Xiao Yu'an's arms, and he said dejectedly: "Brother, what should I do to be like you?"

Strong, calm, and unshakable as you are.

Xiao Yu'an stroked his half-wet hair, kissed the top of his hair, and said in a mellow and deep voice with a concerned smile, "You are fine now."

He raised his head, puzzled, "No, it's only good if I'm like you."

Xiao Yuan kissed his eyes again, and said softly, "You are not my copy."

He didn't say a word, and a faint sense of loss echoed in his chest.

"You are my lover." Xiao Yuan said.

The memory carried warmth, he lowered his head slightly, and the corners of his lips pulled up involuntarily.

Fang Yuanhang shouted at the door, "Master, are you looking for cigarettes? I have them on the table."

He shook his head, "Where is Yi Fei? Tell him to come and find me."

On the terrace on the fifth floor, there was an ashtray on the wooden table. I don’t know who had smoked here, and the cigarette butts in the ashtray overflowed.

Mingshu asked: "How is the search for this line of street photography?"

As early as when he learned that Luo Xiangfu had a hobby of photographing beauties, Mingshu arranged two lines, one to investigate Luo Xiangfu's traditional interpersonal relationships, and the other to investigate Luo Xiangfu's photography trajectory.

The first one is naturally more important, but it has hit a dead end. The second one seems to be biased, but it is likely to hide the key information to solve the case.

"Luo Xiangfu started taking street photography two years ago. One of the main shooting locations is a popular science playground, where there are many people wearing exotic clothes, and the other ones are in the atriums of various commercial centers in the city. There are many fashionistas there, and many of them are willing to People take pictures." Yi Fei asked: "By the way, have you seen those people who spend all day in the commercial center taking pictures of beauties?"

"Yeah." Of course Mingshu has seen it. A few years ago, most of the people carrying DSLRs were young people. In the past two years, for some reason, most of the people who took pictures of beauties were gray-haired old people.

Lu Yanzhou and his special police team had a very beautiful policewoman named Xiaoyun.

Xiaoyun has three-dimensional facial features, and her figure is not to mention. It is rare to take a vacation, go shopping in the mall in casual clothes, and be surrounded by three or five old people for photos.Although he is wearing casual clothes, Xiaoyun has a special position in the special police corps, and he never leaves a picture.

The old people kept praising, insisted on taking pictures, and even scratched.Xiao Yun couldn't help being angry, but she didn't dare to make a move easily. After breaking free, she immediately took a taxi and left, and never went to that shopping mall again.

Mingshu has no objection to the person taking the photo, but he really doesn't like the similar behavior of the old people.

"There have been several disputes caused by street photography this year." Yi Fei said, "Most of them are elderly people. Some young women are unwilling to be photographed, and younger photographers give up, but sometimes the elderly will chase after them fiercely. , must shoot."

Mingshu asked: "Has something like this happened to Luo Xiangfu?"

Yi Fei shook his head, "There is no report record, but it's hard to say whether there is any."

"Luo Xiangfu's camera and computer are in the Technical Investigation Team right now?" Ming Shu got up, "I'll go and have a look."

The two walked towards the corridor together, but before they took a few steps, they heard Zhou Yuan's voice, "Where is Team Ming? Where is Team Ming?"

Mingshu took a few steps away from the terrace and raised his hand, "What did you find?"

Zhou Yuan was very excited, "Ming team, Luo Xiangfu, in mid-August last year, had an argument with a mother and daughter over taking pictures in the street! Someone took photos and videos of the incident and posted them on the Internet, claiming to 'human flesh' out of this 'old man' brute'."

Mingshu's eyebrows were pressed slightly, and he strode forward, "Is the post still there?"

"It was all deleted, but I restored it." Zhou Yuan showed a trace of pride, which is rare on his face.

In the restored post, Luo Xiangfu was flirting with a young woman in a yellow dress. The woman looked anxious, holding her daughter tightly with one hand, and frequently pushing Luo Xiangfu away with the other.

After processing, her voice can be heard, "I won't shoot, you get out of the way! Don't shoot my daughter, you old perverts!"

But Luo Xiangfu said: "I'll just take one picture, okay? Your daughter is so cute, and your parent-child outfit is very interesting."

The tugging lasted for more than two minutes, and the woman finally left with the help of passers-by, while Luo Xiangfu stood there in despair, as if he still didn't give up.

The post quickly aroused public outrage. Phrases such as "disrespecting the old", "bad people are getting old", "social cancer", "this kind of old man deserves to die" frequently appeared in the discussion forum, and soon after someone brought up "human flesh" , the post is deleted.

Mingshu said: "Check the reason for the deletion of the website, as well as the information of the person involved and the person who posted it!"

Zhou Yuan was extremely efficient, and handed in the answer sheet half an hour later, "The website only deleted the post after receiving money from Luo Xiaolong!"

The author says:

To explain, if it is the first time to smoke or inject methamphetamine, it can usually be detected by routine inspection within three days, but if it is used for a long time, the urine test can be detected within a week or more, even if it cannot, there are hair tests, etc. Way.
