Madness of the Heart

Huangqiu Road, Beicheng District.

In the early morning, it was the busiest time in the "Chongshan" clubhouse.

Under the gorgeous neon lights, the transparent main building of "Chongshan" is like a city in the sky illuminated by stars. Many gorgeously dressed women walked out of the "city in the sky" accompanied by handsome young men. They stopped by the car to chat, and then exchanged a long kiss before parting, and some drove away together, looking for a night of lust somewhere in the city.

The night life in Dongye City is rich, and most of them are night spots for men to have fun, but there is only one relatively formal store that only caters to women.

"Chongshan" learns from neighboring countries, and many servers are dressed in very Japanese style.

Among the well-dressed "Niulang" and "Enke", there is a figure that is different from others.

He is small in stature, wearing a dark gray sweater and a pair of black sweatpants, and the sneakers on his feet are stained with mud, as if he has been to the fields and mountains, and has not been washed for a long time.

Compared with those "Cowherds" who are more than 1.8 meters, or even more than 1.9 meters, and take the masculine route, he is really too thin, but compared with the "Cowboys" who are about 1.7 meters and take the cute and soft route. Not so prominent.

A camera hangs around his neck, and the lens scans the crowd.

It was Qin Xu who the police were looking for.

Drunken women were constantly being helped out of the clubhouse, their exquisite long skirts were stained with vomit, and the men who hugged them hugged them tightly for fear that they would fall.A woman vomited on the side of the road, and the filth splashed on the shoe. A man squatted down immediately and wiped her shoe with a clean white towel.

The woman had already lost her mind, and kicked the man down. The man was unprepared, and pressed one hand into the woman's vomit.

Qin Xu, who was holding the camera, giggled and captured this scene.

Ugly, disgusting, despicable people.

No one noticed the small shutter sound, and soon someone ran from the side to help the fallen man up.The woman was cursing something, her hair was messed up, and a few strands fell from her forehead and fell on the corners of her eyes, which made her look haggard and lonely.

Qin Xu became even more excited, and seized the opportunity to take several consecutive photos.

He knew this woman, and he knew the man who was kicked.

The woman's name is Chu Linlin, she is Qin Ke's sister, but Qin Ke robbed her of her love.The man's real name is unknown, but he is called Xiaoye in "Chongshan". He has the same temperament and appearance as Yu Xiaohai. He is good at teasing women with cuteness, and his makeup is better than women.

These men are no different from dogs, but Qin Ke's moth-eaten idiot treats him as a treasure.

"Tch—" Qin Xu snorted disdainfully, put down the camera, and walked towards Chu Linlin.

He came to guard near the "Chongshan" during the day today, just to take pictures of Chu Linlin crying sadly - he really wanted to know, when Chu Linlin learned that her beloved Yu Xiaohai had "died". Can you take the most satisfactory photos?

Thinking of this, Qin Xu trembled with excitement.

Chu Linlin stumbled towards a Cayenne, and someone opened the door for her.

Qin Xu suddenly shouted: "Hello!"

Chu Linlin turned around in a daze, and when she saw Qin Xu, her eyes were first confused and then resentful.

"It's you!"

Qin Xu smiled and said, "It's me."

"Get out!" Chu Linlin screamed, "Get out! I don't want to see your Qin family!"

"I'm here to tell you good news today." Qin Xu said, "My sister Qin Ke, the stupid woman who fought with you in Xiaohai, is dead."

Chu Linlin held on to the car door and froze for a long time, "What did you say?"

Compared with Qin Xu, Chu Linlin, who had a grudge against Qin Ke, reacted more like a normal person.

"Are you happy?" Qin Xu said, "Your rival in love is finally dead, and he can no longer compete with you for men."

Chu Linlin walked up to Qin Xu and slapped her hand, "Crazy! How can you say that about your sister!"

"Are you unhappy?" Qin Xu asked in confusion, "I thought you would be very happy."

Trembling, Chu Linlin took out her cell phone from her handbag.

"You want to call Qin Ke?" Qin Xu touched his swollen face and laughed loudly: "It's useless, you can't get through, how can a dead person answer the phone?"

Chu Linlin didn't talk to him anymore, she seemed to wake up a lot from the wine, and pressed the phone tightly to her ear.

Qin Xu said: "I wanted to make you happy before I told you the bad news. Isn't the expression on the most exciting moment when a person falls from heaven to hell? It's a pity... Qin Ke's death doesn't seem to make you happy stand up."

When the phone couldn't get through, Chu Linlin scolded, "Shut up!"

"What? You want to call the police?" Qin Xu waved his hand, "I'm not a murderer."

Chu Linlin suddenly reached out and grabbed Qin Xu, "Don't even think about leaving, just wait here for me!"

"I haven't taken a picture of Yu Xiaohai's death yet, how could I leave?" Qin Xu said while flipping through the photo album, "Come on, let me show you..."

Chu Linlin didn't react, "Who died?"

Qin Xu turned the camera around, "Here, look at your Yu Xiaohai, he has become like this, do you still want to rob him with Qin Ke?"

It took Chu Linlin a lot of effort to realize that the person on the screen was a bloody man.

"How is it?" Qin Xu took the camera back, and the camera was facing Chu Linlin.

Chu Linlin covered her mouth with one hand, her eyes were extremely frightened, she took several steps back, and finally fell to the ground.

When Xu Chun found Qin Xu, Qin Xu was laughing triumphantly, chattering endlessly, "I got it, I got it! Perfect!"

Serious crime team No. 2 meeting room.

Xing Mu ran over with the autopsy report, with a little sweat on his forehead, looking both excited and tired.

Mingshu threw an unopened bottle of mineral water over, "Brother Xing, take a break."

Xing Mu drank too much water, choked and coughed continuously, and said after drinking, "It's okay, I'm sorry for being late, let's start now, I don't need to rest."

The cause and time of death of the four victims have all been determined. Victim No. 1, Huang Hui, was stabbed more than 14 times in the chest with a sharp instrument, the aorta was severely ruptured, and 2 parts of the arm, abdomen, and thigh were cut off, including the left chest. Put it on the TV; Victim No. 3, Qin Xiong, also had fatal injuries on his chest; Victim No. 4, Qin Ke, had his carotid artery and trachea severed, with smooth wounds and no traces of repeated cutting; Victim No. 1, Yu Xiaohai, suffered fatal injuries with Huang Hui and Qin Xiong are the same.Except for Qin Xiong, the time of death of the other three people was between 3:4 am and 5:[-] am, while Qin Xiong's death time was between [-]:[-] am and [-]:[-] am.

Mingshu held an autopsy report alone, "If you classify according to the time of death, Qin Xiong is different from the other three. The murderer has already entered 5-8, and did not leave immediately after killing Qin Ke, Yu Xiaohai, and Huang Hui." , waiting for Qin Xiong to come home."

Fang Yuanhang said: "Then, Qin Xiong is likely to be the murderer's primary target?"

Ming Shu didn't answer, and said again: "But if you classify according to fatal injuries and destroyed corpses, it's Qin Ke who is different. But Yu Xiaohai is the only one among the four whose clothes have all been taken off. Huang Hui Most of the human body fragments scattered on the living room floor and coffee table belonged to her, and her breasts were ceremonially placed on the TV. Qin Xiong, who was also placed in the living room, There were more than two hundred stab wounds, and the right eye was scraped off, but no part was cut off except the eyeball. The situation of Yu Xiaohai on the bed in the bedroom was similar to that of Qin Xiong. From this point of view, the murderer hated Huang Hui even more? Coming towards Huang Hui? If that’s the case, why wait for Qin Xiong after committing the crime? Brother Xing.”

Xing Mu hurriedly raised his hand: "Leader, I'm here!"

"Before you said that Yu Xiaohai had restraint wounds on his body, what about the other three?" Mingshu asked, "How did the pharmacology and toxicology test go?"

"Except for Qin Xiong who was killed at the end, the other three had similar restraint injuries." Xing Mu said, "Both legs were bound by wires, and hands were tied behind his back. As for the restraint injuries on his neck, Qin Ke didn't have any."

Mingshu nodded, "Because Qin Ke's throat was cut directly."

"Qin Xiong drank alcohol before his death, and Huang Hui took medicine to treat bronchitis, but they should have been sober when they were killed." Xing Mu said: "Leader, I still mean it at night, judging from the footprints at the scene , the murderer is only one person, at most two people, and before Qin Xiong came back, there were three people on 5-8, how did the murderer control them all?"

"The fact is that the murderer did control them all, and there was no major conflict in the process." Fang Yuanhang said: "Only one family heard 5-8 people arguing, and now I doubt the possibility of a quarrel. It's not the murderer and the victim at all, but the three victims themselves."

"The murderer killed three people so easily, as if the three were very obedient." Xing Mu Chong Mingshu said: "If the murderer is not their closest person, causing them to lose vigilance, I can't think of any other reason .”

Mingshu was about to speak when the cell phone thrown on the table rang. Two minutes later, Mingshu hung up the phone, "Xu Chun brought Qin Xu back."

trial room.

The 17-year-old boy had an excited expression on his face. He didn't feel sad for the tragic death of his family members at all, nor was he flustered by being regarded as a suspect. He straightened his back and confronted Mingshu with a fearless attitude. See.

Zhou Yuan has already exported all the photos from Qin Xu’s camera and computer, and the deleted ones have been recovered. Almost every photo shows people in embarrassment and ugliness. There are even photos taken around 10 o’clock yesterday morning— ——It was the four people who died tragically on 5-8, which was ten hours earlier than the photos taken by the police.

In addition, there is a group of photos of Yu Xiaohai and Qin Ke entangled naked.

From the shooting point of view, Qin Ke and Yu Xiaohai were in the bedroom of the house that Qin Xiong and Huang Hui bought for Qin Ke. Qin Xu was able to take this kind of photo because he was quietly hiding in a corner of the bedroom.

"I took it in the closet." Seeing this group of photos, Qin Xu smiled, "Qin Ke is only living there temporarily, and the name on the real estate certificate is my mother. She has the key, and so do I. Did I hide it in the closet?" It won't be long before she and Yu Xiaohai come back, of course I have to seize the opportunity."

Mingshu asked: "Why did you take this kind of photo?"

"I remember I told you last time." Qin Xu said cheerfully: "I like to capture the ugliest side of everyone. Their appearance, whether it is Qin Ke or Yu Gou, is extremely ugly."

Mingshu looked at the photos again, took out one of them, "You mean this one?"

Qin Xu's pupils dilated with excitement, "Don't you think so?"

In the photo, Qin Ke stretched his legs with an extremely obsessed expression, while Yu Xiaohai was below her, satisfying her.

"One is lower than a dog, and the other is full of desires." Qin Xu said, "If you know they died so soon, I would have seen the old man in these photos earlier."

Mingshu said: "'They'?"

"Those dead people from 5-8." Qin Xu smiled innocently, "Don't you lock me here because you think I killed them?"

"It seems that you are very aware of what happened on 5-8." Mingshu leaned forward slightly, focused and with a sense of oppression, "Where were you the night before yesterday?"

"I was studying at school last night. I am different from Qin, she is stupid and lazy." Qin Xu said, "My head teacher can testify for me."

Mingshu said: "What happened after the self-study that night? Did you go back to the dormitory? Or did you go home?"

Qin Xu folded his hands on the edge of the table like an obedient student, "I haven't lived in the dormitory for a long time. Why, you didn't find out?"

"At 8:32 last night, your mother Huang Hui called you." Mingshu said, "She told you to go home?"

"She told me to go back, so I'm going back?" Qin Xu showed an impatient expression, "The women in our family are more stupid than each other."

Mingshu rarely showed his personal emotions when investigating cases, but Qin Xu's reaction really made him feel uncomfortable.

Regardless of whether Qin Xu was the murderer who killed the four people, his words and deeds were cruel enough.

If Qin Xu wasn't the murderer, it would mean that someone killed all his close relatives, but he was able to not call the police after discovering the murder scene, but instead took pictures of the death of his close relatives and showed them to others without psychological pressure.

Mingshu couldn't help asking: "Why do you have such deep hatred for your family?"

Hearing this, Qin Xu tilted his head in confusion, as if he didn't understand.

But with Qin Xu's IQ, it's impossible not to understand.

Mingshu stared at him coldly.

"Hate? I don't hate anyone." Qin Xu said with a dark smile, "I think your wording is inaccurate. The word 'hate' is too cute, and they are not worthy of my hatred."

Mingshu said: "Don't talk about words with me."

Qin Xu shrank back a bit, "Okay, then I will defend myself. I just happened to go home this morning to get something, and I happened to see them all dead. I didn't kill them, but I admire this person."

"Fuck!" It was the first time Fang Yuanhang heard someone say that he admired the murderer of his parents.

Qin Xu glanced at Fang Yuanhang, "Am I right? Four dead people, so ugly, it's the first time I've seen them. Of course I've seen similar horror movies, but the impact I saw with my own eyes... Hey, it’s so wonderful! Fortunately, I have the habit of carrying a camera with me, otherwise I would have missed it!”

"You haven't answered yet. Why did Huang Hui call you last night?" Mingshu said, "Also, where were you after the evening self-study last night?"

"In Liangquan." Qin Xu's attitude was very indifferent, "There are three houses in our family. My parents lived in the old house and forced me to live there too. One of the new houses was given to Qin Ke, and the other was in name only. Give it to me, but they said I was under 18 and insisted on letting me live in the old house with them. My mother told me to go back last night, saying that Qin Ke had also gone back and had something to discuss. I didn’t go and went back to live in Liangquan went."

Liangquan is a new real estate in Nancheng District. The field office had gone to investigate earlier, and the surveillance inside and outside the community did not capture Qin Xu, and no one could prove that Qin Xu was indeed staying in Liangquan when the crime happened.

"Is there something to discuss?" Ming Shu said, "What is it that Huang Hui didn't say?"

Qin Xu said, "I didn't say anything, and I didn't ask."

"You came back to your old house from Liangquan yesterday morning?"

"Yes, last week's homework will be taught in the afternoon, and I remembered that my papers are at home."

Fang Yuanhang said: "Lie! If you really went home because you had to hand in your homework in the afternoon, why didn't you come to school all day yesterday?"

"What's so strange about this?" Qin Xu said, "Before I saw the situation at home, of course I wanted to go to school to hand in my homework. But I have already taken such interesting photos, why do I still have to go to school? Of course to find Chu Linlin!"

Xu Chun has already asked Chu Linlin about the relationship between Chu Linlin, Qin Ke, and Yu Xiaohai, and told Mingshu through the earphone.

As early as when he was in high school, Qin Ke used his family's money to go to "Chongshan" and other nightclubs. He had dated no less than ten boyfriends, and all of them were "cowboys" like Yu Xiaohai.

"Qin Ke and I met in 'Chongshan', she is a complete scumbag!" Chu Linlin said: "Everyone I like, she will rob me. I really like Xiaohai, Xiaohai is willing If so, I plan to be with him for the rest of my life. But Qin Ke is younger than me, so he snatched Xiaohai away..."

Xu Chun said: "I checked Qin Ke's consumption list, and the reason why Yu Xiaohai chose Qin Ke was definitely not that Qin Ke was younger than Chu Linlin. She was very willing to spend money for Yu Xiaohai, anyway, Huang Hui helped to pay back. But Chu Linlin The money I earned was from starting a company, so it’s not as generous as Qin Ke’s spending.”

Mingshu felt ridiculous for a while.

Qin Xiong and Huang Hui started to work hard when they were young, and opened a famous food stall. They have been working hard to make money since they got up early. They live in an old house like the second section of Longcheng Road. They live frugally to provide for their two "ancestors". The man in the night scene, played one after another, and has the habit of "stealing people". The youngest son looks down on all family members and takes pictures of his parents being killed indifferently. He may be the murderer.

What a twisted family is this?

Behind the twisted family, what secrets are hidden?

The interrogation lasted until early in the morning, and Qin Xu still insisted that he was only the first to appear at the scene and took pictures, and that there were other people who killed the four people from 5 to 8.

When Mingshu left the interrogation room, he took a break for a short while, and it took only 5 minutes before and after.

Since the discovery of two female corpses in Qiyue Mountain on October 10, his brain has been running at high speed all the time, and he has very little sleep time. As soon as he opened his eyes, his consciousness was occupied by intricate clues.

At first glance, the "1013 case" is actually not a particularly difficult case to solve. Although the murderer did not leave footprints, fingerprints, and DNA information on the scene, the most critical evidence, but the emotions expressed are very clear.

Such cases are actually relatively easy to detect.

But the deeper the investigation, the more mysteries the case has. Analyzing the hidden logic is a very exhausting task.

Then, a disappearance case that was full of weirdness and seemed to be somewhat related to the Qiyueshan case was brought to him.

Then came the appalling "Miemen Case".

These three cases are delicately related to each other, but it seems far-fetched to consider them together.

Humans are extremely complex creatures. Anyone who digs deep can discover his unknown secrets and dark sides.

And between people, through turns and connections, they will always be connected together.

Ming Shu leaned against the wall of the corridor, looking at the lamp on the opposite wall with some empty eyes, and was about to turn around half a minute later when he heard Xiao Yu'an calling himself.

"Ju Xiao." Mingshu realized that his voice was a little hoarse when he answered, probably due to exhaustion and talking too much.

Xiao Yuan frowned, "Why are you standing here?"

"I just finished interrogating Qin Xu." Ming Shu raised his hand and wiped his face as he spoke, "Have you been here all night?"

"Yes." Xiao Yu'an handed Ming Shu a pack of wet tissues, "Use this."

Mingshu took it with a smile, "It's so sweet."

Xiao Yuan said: "It's still early, you can take a nap for a while, take a shower, and go have breakfast at 8:[-]."

Mingshu said: "I'd better go early, the cafeteria is very crowded at 8:[-]."

"Not going to the cafeteria." Xiao Yuan said, "Go outside to eat."

"Take me to corruption?"

"If you have time to talk poorly, it's better to occupy a bed and sleep."

There are quite a few lounges in the serious crime team, Mingshu looked at a few of them, covered Yi Fei with a quilt, and finally ran to Xiao Yuan's office.

In the past, he was used to sleeping in the lounge, falling asleep as soon as he closed his eyes when he was most sleepy, but now he prefers to lie on the sofa in Xiao Yuan's office.

This sleep lasted until almost 9 o'clock. Mingshu woke up by himself, and found that there was a steaming three-liang chicken soup chaoshou on the table, a lot of vegetables buried under the chashou, and a basket of crab roe buns in another box.

The breakfast at "Xuanweiting" is famous for its delicious taste and high price.

Mingshu noticed that his phone was vibrating halfway through his meal, and he clicked on it to see that Fang Yuanhang was posting a picture in the group—the same chicken soup Chaoshou and crab roe buns, each member of the serious crime team had them.

"Tsk, I'm not the only one in the end." Mingshu smiled and said to himself, "It's really generous."

The ginkgo leaves on Qiyue Mountain are even more yellow. When the sun rises in the morning, the morning light falls on the yellow leaves all over the mountain. From a distance, it looks like a golden fairy mountain.

At this time last year, Qiyue Mountain was crowded with people, and many people set up tents to sleep in the open in order to take pictures of the sunrise in the mountain.There was a murder case this year, and the number of tourists dropped sharply. In the early morning, there were almost no people, but the tranquility was returned to this unbelievably popular mountain.

Haijing Temple rang the morning bell, and the bell echoed in the mountains and forests for a long time, with indescribable solemnity.

After ringing the bell, Wu Nian started cleaning again.

Behind him, there is a line of sight.

It was Wu Seng who was silently watching him in the corner of the old courtyard.

A door was pushed open with a squeak, and Wu Yu walked out from inside, laughing easily, "Devils also fantasize about becoming a Buddha one day."

Wu Nian's hand holding the broom suddenly paused.

And when he looked at Wu Yu, Wu Yu was already humming a strange song and walking towards the backyard.
