Madness of the Heart

Chapter 37: Demon Hunting (37)

Chen Mi didn't recognize Chen Quanhan's father because of what happened when he was young, and he was unwilling to cooperate with the police investigation. Fang Yuanhang and others thought that Chen Mi was suspected to be serious.

"It can't be Chen Mi." Ming Shu said: "Assuming that Chen Mi killed Chen Quanhan, how should Luo Xiangfu's death be explained? Luo Xiangfu and Chen Mi did not have any intersection. Could it be that Chen Mi killed his own father first, and then killed another with his father? Strangers with the same hobbies? Can this make sense? The details of the two cases are very similar, and show a progressive continuity. Chen Quanhan's remains were only discovered recently, there is no imitation, the murderer can only be the same person ."

"Chen Mi was seriously injured by Chen Quanhan when she was a child, but she now has a very happy family." Yi Fei just returned to the crime team from outside, holding the information of Chen Mi's house in his hand, "Chen Mi now has two children. She has a son and a daughter. The elder is 8 years old and the younger is 6 years old. The restaurant business is booming. She has come out of her past pains. If Chen Quanhan were to be killed, what she would destroy would be the happiness of her entire family. Chen Quanhan’s The time of death was in mid-April, and Chen Mi’s family went abroad for vacation on April 7 and returned on April 25. Even if she had the motivation to commit the crime, there was no possibility of committing the crime. This case still has to return to our previous thinking-the murderer is because Street shooting and killing."

Ming Shu nodded, "Yes."

Fang Yuanhang thought of the shocking old scars on Chen Mi's back, "Chen Mi is the person most qualified to hate Chen Quanhan, and what Chen Quanhan did to her has constituted deliberate harm. But Chen Mi chose to let go, not revenge, nor prosecute. The laws just broke Chen Quanhan. Did Chen Quanhan hurt the murderer more than Chen Mi?"

"You can't make a horizontal comparison like this. Everyone is a different individual." At this point, Ming Shu suddenly thought of Chen Mi's husband.

When Chen Mi was being questioned, the man in his thirties had been waiting in the corridor. As soon as Chen Mi came out, he rushed forward, took Chen Mi's shoulders, and murmured relief.

Sometimes it is not necessarily the depth of the damage that determines the extent to which a period of enmity develops, but whether the damage can be flattened.

Obviously, although Chen Mi's injury has not disappeared, and will not even disappear in her life, the injury in her heart has been healed by her husband.

That's why she was able to show the scar on her back frankly.

Then choose not to forgive Chen Quanhan and forget Chen Quanhan.

The murderer is very different from her.

Chen Quanhan and Luo Xiangfu may not have really hurt the murderer, and they have never even contacted the murderer in depth, but for some reason—perhaps a delusion of being persecuted, or perhaps something else—the murderer had to be killed quickly.

Ming Shu stayed alone on the terrace, profiled the murderer.

She has very serious psychological problems and has not been resolved for a long time.

There are no close friends and family around her, and she can only take care of herself if anything happens.

She is under great pressure.

Over time, she became more and more distorted.

She is not good at analyzing the heart to others.

autistic?

Not too possible.

What caused her psychological problems?

Ming Shu kept pressing her eyebrows, remembering the possibility that she had analyzed with Xiao Yuan not long ago—she has lived in the city for a long time, has a decent job, and needs to contact many people...

Is it the work that puts too much pressure on her?

"Team Ming!" Xu Chun shouted outside the terrace, "We found a lot of letters at Chen Quanhan's house. Would you like to read it?"

There were 79 letters in total, but none of them were sent, and even the stamps were not affixed.

In the letter, Chen Quanhan confessed to Chen Mi and listed the piles of abuse that had abused Chen Mi in the past. The end of each letter reads "Xiaomi, Dad I'm sorry".

Depending on when it was signed, the first letter was written four years ago, and the last letter was written on April 9 this year. He hoped that Chen Mi could bring his family back to see him, and said that his old house and savings were all left to Chen Mi and his grandson and granddaughter.

"Chen Quanhan didn't post the letter because he didn't have the courage to face Chen Mi." Ming Shu looked around. "He knew very well in his heart that Chen Mi would never forgive him."

Fang Yuanhang thought of his father, and was a little moved, "Master, let me show the letter to Chen Mi."

"No hurry." Ming Shu said, "Chen Mi put it aside first, and after the case is solved, he will give her the letter."

The Luo Xiangfu case and the Chen Quanhan case were investigated together. The crime team held a case analysis meeting in the largest office of the Criminal Investigation Bureau. Xiao Yuan was not notified before the meeting. After driving halfway, the back door was gently pushed open. Everyone did not go to the door. Look, I don't know the immediate boss is here, even Ming Shu didn't notice.

Xiao Yu walked quietly to the corner, moved his chair and sat down. Fang Yuanhang on the side heard the movement and turned his face to look, "Xiao..."

At that time, Ming Shu was speaking, and Xiao Yuan raised his index finger towards Fang Yuanhang and pressed virtual pressure on his lips, beckoning the other party not to make a sound.

Fang Yuanhang understood, and quickly sat down.

But the big leader was by his side, and the young criminal police inevitably felt like he was eager. Yu Guang went back and forth. It didn't take long before Ming Shu, who hadn't been looking at him, began to look at himself frequently.

He took a peek at Xiao Yuan, thinking that the master might have discovered that Xiao Ju was here.

When Xiao Yuan made a silent gesture towards Fang Yuanhang, Ming Shu noticed the movement in the corner.

This meeting was more complicated, listing the evidence, analyzing the evidence, everyone tried to collide with a new idea, but no one can guarantee that a new idea can be generated.

Case analysis meetings are often like this. A group of people are locked in a conference room for constant discussion. Some people smoke and some chew candy, making it smoky, just like the practice scene.

So he didn't want Xiao Yuan to come. First, Xiao Yuan didn't like the smell of smoke. Second, if he could not find a breakthrough, calling Xiao Yuan to come would be a delay in Xiao Yuan's time.

Xiao Yuan himself said-I am not only in charge of your crime team.

At this time, a few people in the meeting room started smoking, Ming Shu suddenly stopped, went to the window, pushed the open window to the largest extent, and said to the spitting team members: "Extinguish the smoke. "

Xiao Man said: "Huh?"

"Ah what." Ming Shu said, "For the sake of your health, I will not smoke in meetings in the future. I can't help but go back to the balcony after smoking."

A group of people in the serious case group are very satisfied with Mingshu. This should be replaced by another team leader of the Criminal Investigation Bureau. Someone may leave with a cigarette in his mouth, but Mingshu said it, and everyone agrees. Put out the smoke and continue the meeting.

"The last call record of Chen Quanhan's mobile phone number was at 8:13 pm on April 12th. The person who called him was a food delivery man." Zhou Man said: "He ordered a noodle noodle with sauerkraut. In addition, he was in We have verified all communications in the three months before the murder. They are all takeaways, express delivery, system reminders, and harassing calls. We have also checked his Internet records. He is different from Luo Xiangfu. Luo Xiangfu is just a hobby of street shooting. He has almost no photos shared on the Internet, and he sells his photos to a photo website called'Jiemei', earning about 2,000 yuan a month."

"Chen Quanhan is a retired worker in a pharmaceutical factory. With a fixed retirement salary of 3,400 yuan, plus the income from taking pictures, he is completely able to move out of Puouxin Road and live in a place with better conditions." Xiao Man shook his head, "Pououxin Road It’s almost dismantled, and there is not a single camera. It simply increases the difficulty of our investigation."

Puouxin Road is the area to be demolished outside the south gate of the popular science amusement park. A few years ago, there were rumors that it would be demolished, but it has been lingering with the popular science amusement park. Now only a few people still live in it.

It was much less difficult for the murderer to lead Chen Quanhan to the popular science playground to kill Luo Xiangfu.

"I don't understand a little bit." Yi Fei said, "According to Zhan Huanxiong, Luo Xiangfu was waiting for the murderer at the playground, so should Chen Quanhan. But how did the murderer do it?"

"The murderer had close contact with them." Ming Shu said: "And he knew where to meet them and would not be caught by the camera. The murderer was a person who was very familiar with Xicheng District, especially the surroundings of the popular science playground."

"This is too general." Yi Fei looked serious. "Close contact is nothing more than verbal bewitching, but what exactly did the murderer say to them before they would go to the popular science amusement park to wait late at night after drinking alcohol?"

A team member said: "A very attractive woman?"

Ming Shu immediately thought of the other type of people he and Xiao Yuan had seen in Huayun Square.

The two cases are now very clear. The murderer killed people because of street photography, but the specific motives were divided into two types. One is the earliest idea. The murderer hates street photography and may have been harassed by middle-aged and elderly street photography enthusiasts; People who are not favored by street enthusiasts, after being ignored for a long time, kill people because of their distorted gloomy psychology.

If it is the former, then the murderer is likely to have extraordinary charm, at least in appearance. if the latter one…

Ming Shu lowered his head, and couldn't think of how this kind of people who had no charm in the eyes of street photography enthusiasts could be seduced.

For a moment, he raised his eyes and looked at Xiao Yuan in the corner.

At this moment, Xiao Yuan cleared his throat, "Let’s start the investigation from the'intersection area' first."

Everyone followed the prestige, all a little surprised.

"Xiao Ju—"

"When did you come?"

"Xiao Ju has been here for a while." Ming Shu signaled everyone to be quiet and said, "Except for a few street shots in Xicheng District, the place where Luo Xiangfu and Chen Quanhan go most often is Huayun Center, which is considered the most important'intersection area'. ."

Xiao Yuan said: "The murderer might also be active at the Huayun Center."

"Hua Yun Center is poisonous." Xiao Man suddenly said: "The café murder case was there. If Luo Xiangfu and Chen Quanhan were also targeted by the murderer there, it would be absolutely impossible."

Zhou Yuan said: "We can adjust Huayun's monitoring."

"The murderer is familiar with Xicheng District and Huayun Center. It is possible that he lives in Xicheng District and works near Huayun." Xiao Yuan said: "In the past, we were influenced by the Lu Kun and Li Hongmei cases and believed that the murderer's starting point was'justice.' '. Actually not necessarily."

"Yes." Ming Shu took Xiao Yu'an's words and said another possibility, that is, the venting of the anger of those who are not favored.

Most of the members of the serious case team have seen all kinds of strange motives, even incredible cases, so they digest quickly.

Everyone was thinking about clues, only Fang Yuanhang had gone away, always feeling that there was a tacit understanding between Xiao Ju and his master.

To have a tacit understanding is to have a secret.

Xiao Yuan said again: "I don't know if you noticed it. The Luo Xiangfu case happened shortly after the café murder case."

Ming Shu thought for a while, "Maybe it's a coincidence?"

"Then what if it is not a coincidence?" Xiao Yuan said: "Is it possible that the murderer was inspired or stimulated by the café murder case and put a ‘righteous’ cloak on his behavior."

Ming Shu whispered: "...who is most likely to be inspired?"

Eyewitness, who was at Shuhan Cafe at the time?

If this is the case, this is in line with the inference that "murderers are often active at Huayun Center".

"The murderer was emotionally conflicted. Not only wanted to hide herself well to continue committing the crime, but also deliberately gave us clues." Xiao Yuan said: "She knows that the police are investigating two cases of Luo and Chen. In a short time, her most likely course of action is Observe our movements, and at the same time follow her new target, and dare not commit another crime. This is our opportunity."

Repeated touches gradually connect the clues.

Among the city’s middle-aged and elderly men who are keen on street photography, there are 75 people with similar family situations to Luo and Chen. Among these 75 people, 6 have been active in Xicheng District and Huayun Center for a long time, including those who took photos of Chen Quanhan. Hui Chengxian.

They may have entered the murderer's field of vision.

It is worth noting that Hui Chengxian did not have the offensive habits of Luo and Chen when he was shooting on the street.

Ming Shu personally visited Pu'ou Xin Road from house to house, and got an important message from the shoe repairer on the street—a tall woman in a long skirt appeared downstairs in Chen Quan’s house.

"I can't remember her looks." The cobbler said, "I remember her yellow dress and the smell of perfume on her body. Alas, the woman who lives in Taiwa is not as good at dressing as her. I was particularly impressed. But I'm also surprised."

Ming Shu asked: "What's weird?"

"Um... I can't tell you." The shoe repairer hesitated for a long time, "I think, why does she dress so beautifully to come to a place like us?"

Ming Shu has a faint conclusion in his heart—

Because she wanted to seduce Chen Quanhan, let Chen Quanhan willingly go to the popular science playground to wait for death!

In the afternoon, when the sun was toxic, Ming Shu hurried back to the Criminal Investigation Bureau under the scorching sun and hurried to Xiao Yu'an's office. He forgot to knock on the door and pushed in.

"Xiao..."

Both eyes turned to him at the same time, and he realized that Li Ju was there.

Fortunately, I didn't directly call "Brother" just now.

Ming Shu adjusted his posture and tone, and said with a smile, "Ju Li, are you looking for Xiao Ju?"

Ju Li joked, "Team Ming, why is it becoming more and more unruly, pushing the door without saying hello? You usually come to Xiao Ju, which is the same?"

"No, no, I usually knock on the door." Ming Shu said, "Today I was outside and almost had heat stroke. I was in a hurry to come to Xiaoju to rub the air conditioner."

His police uniform was wet, and his face and neck were sweaty, which was convincing.

Li Ju said: "The air conditioner can be rubbed against, and the door has to be knocked well. This is discipline."

Mingshu immediately withdrew, closed the door, knocked twice, and said loudly, "Xiao Ju, I am Mingshu."

Xiao Yuan's tone was as usual: "Come in."

Ming Shu can be riotous, but when he gets serious, he is righteous immediately. It is like that. A stop at the gate of the city bureau is an advertisement of a contemporary elite criminal police.

Li Ju stood up, "You want to talk about the case, I'll leave first. You have done something in the heart of the tomb, and you have to be commended from the top, and you will try your best to solve the case of Luo Xiangfu and Chen Quanhan."

Ming Shu stood upright, "Yes!"

Li Ju sighed, as if he wanted to say something, he finally shook his head and left Xiao Yuan's office.

When the door was closed, Ming Shu immediately unbuttoned the two buttons on his shirt, ran to the air conditioner to blow the air, and asked, "Brother, what did Li Ju come to do with you? Not just talking about the heart of the tomb, right?"

The higher-level department has established a task force. The Dongye city police circle had the greatest contribution to be able to find the heart of the tomb, but Ming Shu did not think that Bureau Li came to Xiao Yuan at this time, just chatting about the heart of the tomb.

There must be something else.

"Don't stand there." Xiao Yuan said, "Be careful to make facial paralysis."

Ming Shu pressed the air-conditioning blades down, turned around and held the hem of his shirt, letting the cold wind blow on his back, "It's hot to me. Don't blow my face, is this all right?"

Little did Xiao Yuan picked up the remote control on the table and turned off the air conditioner directly.

Ming Shu: "..."

dry!

"Come here." Xiao Yuan pointed to the chair next to him, "If you can't resist blowing, I'll open it again."

"Excessive Boss Xiao." Ming Shu was greedy, but the remote control was in Xiao Yuan's hands. He had to say "goodbye" to the air conditioner and walked to the table and sat down.

Xiao Yuan turned on the air conditioner again.

Ming Shu grabbed a folder fan, "You haven't said what Li Ju is here to do."

Xiao Yuan said: "Let's talk about Liang Zhao for a while."

"Liang Zhao?" Ming Shu was both surprised and reasonable, "Does Li Ju want to fight for Liang Zhao?"

Before Xiao Yuan came to Dongye City, Liang Zhao was Li Ju's most effective cadre, and Li Ju was left with Liang Zhao to handle many things. Everyone in the Criminal Investigation Bureau knows that Liang Zhao was trained by the Li Bureau and has a bright future.

More than a month ago, Liang Zhao was still in the limelight. Although he was always called Liang Team, not Liang Ju, he was actually the second in command of the Criminal Investigation Bureau.

The arrival of Xiao Yuan changed everything.

The most important crime team of the Criminal Investigation Bureau and the second team of the Criminal Investigation Team were handed over to Xiao Yuan. With the support of Xiao Yuan, the crime team unearthed the accumulated cases in Xiaben Village and solved the most influential cases in the heart of the grave. Liang Zhao is now What mood is actually not difficult to imagine.

Ju Li knows Liang Chao's strengths and weaknesses, and it is precisely knowing that Liang Chao is embarrassed by the task that Xiao Yuan's parachuting is possible.

However, Xiao Yuan's edge is too strong, Liang Zhao is getting more and more dim, perhaps in the eyes of Li Ju, this is not conducive to maintaining balance.

Xiao Yuan said: "It's just a balance, don't worry, I have my own measures."

Of course, Ming Shu believed in Xiao Yu'an's measure, and after taking a breath, he began to report the progress of the case.

Xiao Yuan listened carefully, "Thank you."

Ming Shu suddenly noticed that Xiao Yuan's computer screen was frozen on a video screen. It should be what Xiao Yuan was watching when Li Ju came.

He tilted his body, almost leaning on Xiao Yuan, "Brother, what are you looking at?"

Xiao Yuan supported him and turned the computer display slightly, "Video of Lu Kun committing the crime."

Ming Shu didn't just stick to Xiao Yuan's arms, but stood up vigilantly, "What did you find?"

Xiao Yuan clicked "Play" and said, "When you subdued Lu Kun, did you think that the lady who rushed to protect the child was wrong?"
