Madness of the Heart

Chapter 88: For good (08)

"Get up!" Policeman Zhang Xuejiao hurriedly helped the man up and dragged a chair. "You sit down and say slowly, how can you kneel down? What do you say when someone sees us as the police?"

The man is well-dressed, and his outfit is too big to say, but his skin is sallow and his face is cramped, which doesn't match the clothes.

"My hometown is busy with farming. I went back to my hometown to work in August. I had very little contact with my Xiaomin. The last time I called him, it was fine. But before I came back the day before yesterday, I called him and I couldn't get through. , I hurried back to see that there is no one at home." The man gasped and said, "Comrade police, you said he was so good at being a man, why did he disappear inexplicably? Something must have happened! Please help me find him. Come back, I kowtow to you!"

Zhang Xuejiao has been a film sergeant for half her life, and every three to five, nearby residents rushed to call the police, saying that the elderly at home were lost, the children at home were gone, and the girls at home did not go home in the middle of the night.

"Don't worry, the more anxious you are, the less clear you will be." Zhang Xuejiao called the policeman Xiao Jin, who had just been assigned to the station, and asked the man to make a note.

"Is it just a transcript?" The man looked at Zhang Xuejiao helplessly, "I heard people say that even if I call the police, you may not open the case."

Zhang Xuejiao sighed and put a cup of warm water on the table, "Uncle, it depends on the situation if you start a case or not. You should explain your son's situation clearly first."

The man was very anxious, but had to follow suit.

Guofu Street is a noisy street, but the police station is very quiet.

The man's surname is Qiu, Qiu Guoying, 63 years old this year, and his hometown is Qingshui Town within the jurisdiction of Los Angeles. Although Qingshui Town is under the management of Los Angeles City, it is much closer to Dongye City than Los Angeles. If the townspeople live in big cities, most of them choose Dongye City.

Qiu Guoying has a son, Qiu Min, who is only 25 years old this year. Qiu Guoying's wife was an elderly woman who died of dystocia when she gave birth to Qiu Min.

As early as more than ten years ago, Qiu Guoying sold the house in his hometown and brought Qiu Min, who was still studying, to Dongye City.

Qiu Guoying is diligent and flexible. He helped people build houses in his hometown, and after entering the city, he worked as a woodworker in a private home improvement company to make money. The real estate in Dongye City has been booming year after year, and people's demand for house decoration has become more and more vigorous. Qiu Guoying has good craftsmanship. After a few years of work, he bought a second-hand house in Dongcheng District. The lives of himself and Qiu Min are completely settled down.

Qiu Min did not have a mother. When he was a child, he was a little cowardly, and he always dared not go out. This is one of the reasons why Qiu Guoying insisted on bringing Qiu Min to the big city.

Another reason is that Qiu Min’s mother’s family dislikes Qiu Min and thinks Qiu Min is a murderer.

Qiu Min's uncle Li Aiyou even appeared in Qiu Min's school many times, threatening to kill Qiu Min.

"You little scourge, you killed my sister! You wait for me, my **** will kill you sooner or later!"

Leaving his hometown and getting rid of his familiar environment and odious family members, Qiu Min became cheerful day by day. His junior high and high school grades were among the best in the school, and the university went to a prestigious school in the north to study law.

Qiu Guoying originally thought that his son would stay in the north for development, but he did not expect that Qiu Min only stayed in the north for half a year after graduation, and then returned to Dongye City. He said that his old father was getting older and he was too far away from being a son. .

Qiu Guoying felt sorry for her son, but also very considerate. Thinking that Dongye City is also a big city, my son will come back if he wants to.

As a result, the father and son lived a life of dependence again. Qiu Guoying continued to work as a carpenter, while Qiu Min found a job at the Weixiang Law Firm in the city center, earning a lot of money. Qiu Guoying had only studied in elementary school, and had no idea of ​​the "high and big" lawyer industry. He only knew that his son was powerful and promising, and was the pride of himself and his dead wife.

Qiu Min told Qiu Guoying two years ago that the money he made was enough to support his family and he didn't need to go out to work. But Qiu Guoying is still in a tough body. On the one hand, he can’t get off his spare time. On the other hand, he wants to save money for his son’s marriage, so he still does carpentry work. Every year he returns to Qingshui Town to help his eldest and third brothers with farm work. .

"Qiu Min is very filial and will never leave home without telling me." Qiu Guoying said, almost crying, "Please open the case and help me find him!"

Xiao Jin calmed Qiu Guoying and asked, "When was the last time you contacted Qiu Min?"

Qiu Guoying turned over the call log in the phone, "Look, it's this day."

September 29, 7:04 in the evening.

"It's all my fault. I don't like to call. Xiao Min called me that day and asked me how I was in my hometown and whether anyone from Li's family came to trouble me." Qiu Guoying was very upset, "If I had to do it every day. Give Xiao Min a phone call. If he doesn't answer one day, I know that something happened to him, and I rushed back!"

Xiao Jin picked up his cell phone and saw that Qiu Guoying had made countless phone calls to Qiu Min since October 16, but none of them could be connected.

"You said Qiu Min works at Weixiang Law Firm. Have you ever been to the law firm to find out?" Xiao Jin said, "Is it possible that he was sent by the law firm on a business trip?"

Qiu Guoying's face was more sad. "The people from the law firm said that Xiao Min doesn't work with them. But it's impossible. Xiao Min clearly showed me the work card and the clothes issued by the law firm. They saw that I was an elderly person. , Just perfunct me. They must know what Xiaomin is missing!"

"Don't work there?" Xiao Jin was a little confused, turned to look at Zhang Xuejiao, "Sister Zhang, this..."

Many of the family conflicts that Zhang Xuejiao resolved were about concealing unemployment between husband and wife and between father and son. The situation described by Qiu Guoying resembles that Qiu Min did not find a job at the law firm at all, or once found it, but was fired for some reason, but kept the secret of Qiu Guoying.

But Qiu Guoying also said that Qiu Min has a good income and eats well at home.

You can talk nonsense, but the facts are right now-Qiu Guoying's clothes are really not cheap.

So where did Qiu Min get his money?

Is Qiu Min's disappearance related to the money?

A few years ago, there was a drug-related case in Dongcheng District. A drug manufacturing and trafficking gang was hidden in a residential building and was active for two years. In the process of destroying this gang, the special police detachment of the sub-bureau sacrificed two anti-narcotics police officers.

Zhang Xuejiao was a witness at the time, who hated drug dealers extremely, and was extremely sensitive to any drug-related cases. As soon as Qiu Guoying finished speaking, her first thought was, is Qiu Min involved in drug trafficking?

Drug trafficking comes the fastest, and horses are the easiest to be thrown away as discarded pawns.

Zhang Xuejiao immediately asked: "Are there any of Qiu Min's friends that you are more familiar with?"

Qiu Guoying shook his head, "Xiao Min is very busy and is often away from home, especially at night. I work during the day and never see him when I go back at night. He has never brought friends home."

Zhang Xuejiao took a deep breath, "Okay..."

"Can a case be filed?" Qiu Guoying worried, "You must file a case!"

Zhang Xuejiao tried her best to appease and said: "Don't worry, Qiu Min's affairs will be checked by us."

Xiao Jin was a little surprised, and looked at Zhang Xuejiao suspiciously.

"Since childhood, the only thing Xiao Min has offended is his mother's family." Qiu Guoying said: "Could it be his brother Li Aiyou who did it?"

"I have written down all your reactions here." Zhang Xuejiao said: "You go back first. We will draw up an investigation plan."

After sending Qiu Guoying away, Zhang Xuejiao considered repeatedly and reported the case to the Dongcheng branch.

Crime Squad, Deputy Director's Office.

Ming Shu looked at Xiao Yuan, tapping his fingers rhythmically on his cheeks.

"The Qiyueshan case can be seen from the scene that the murderer has very strong emotions to express. When you are investigating, you have been analyzing the emotions of the murderer all the time-the first is the psychological distortion of sexual repression and the murderer. , The second is to hate lesbians. There is no problem with this kind of thinking, but whenever a suspect is found, a problem will arise." Xiao Yuan said: "That is, the suspect seems to be incapable of committing such a thing. A case. In addition to the contradictions we discussed earlier, Ming team, have you ever wondered why this is?"

Ming Shu closed his eyes, was silent for a while, and then slowly said, "We followed the situation on the scene and profiled the murderer with conventional thinking, but found that there was a logical discrepancy with similar cases... The murderer was actually misleading. we?"

Xiao Yuan said: "Yes, the murderer deliberately put the corpse in such a posture, with obvious ritual and expressive desire. Any police force conducting an investigation must analyze the murderer's psychology and draw our previous conclusions. But this It’s just the murderer’s blindfold. He hopes that the police will mistake him for a depressed personality. In fact, he does not have any sexual defects, and he does not need to make sexual depressive psychological aberrations on the bodies of two women. Move."

Ming Shu said: "Then what was his reason for committing the crime? In this way, the motive was completely obscured."

Xiao Yuan said: "I have just said that I just remind you to avoid you from falling into a dead end. This case still needs to be investigated according to the conventional logic. After all, there are still some blind spots. But if it is under the conventional logic, everything is possible. If everything is ruled out, you must immediately'brake' and come to my unconventional thinking."

Ming Shu covered his forehead for a while, and said loudly, "Thank you Xiao Ju for your guidance, I understand."

Praying for the Moon Mountain, Haijing Temple.

From a personal perspective, Fang Yuanhang was actually not willing to doubt the monks in Haijing Temple. His grandfather and grandmother believed in Buddhism, and there was a Buddhist altar at home. When he was young, his grandfather and grandmother took him to many temples. He slept with the little monk in the temple on the mat, ate fast food, and even imagined that one day he would shave his hair, do not study or take exams, go to Shaolin Temple as a monk, and then go down the mountain to punish evil and protect the party .

Although the monk's wish fell through, becoming a policeman and a member of the Criminal Investigation Bureau's serious crime team can also be regarded as fulfilling the lofty dream of punishing **** as a child and safeguarding one party.

All in all, Fang Yuanhang has always had respect for the monks. He even felt that his righteousness was born from eating and living with the monks when he was a child.

But as a criminal policeman, he had to put every doubt in his head and ponder over and over again.

"Last time I have finished explaining it." Seeing Fang Yuanhang again, Wu Su's face was very ugly. "I told them that the mountain is dangerous, but they must go up. I am a monk and I am not the administrator of this mountain. Can't stop them, right?"

Fang Yuanhang asked: "How do you arrange your work and rest time here?"

Wu Hu was stunned for a while, "I like reading books and sleep late, but the brothers and masters slept very early."

"How early is it early?"

"It looks like at 8:9. We don't have a TV here, and the mobile phone signal is not good. You have to find 2G signals, and don't mention 4G."

Fang Yuanhang asked: "Would you mind telling me your common name?"

Wu Hou opened his mouth, and said for a while, "Since I have worshipped Buddhism, I have abandoned the worldly names and worldly things."

Fang Yuanhang suddenly said harshly: "But you are still a citizen of our country!"

Wu Hun shrank his neck in Fang Yuanhang's explosive aura, and got up after a while and said, "Then wait for me."

While waiting for the realization of hatred, Fang Yuanhang looked at the structure of the room he was in.

Many ancient temples have mortise and tenon structures, so no nails are needed. But Haijing Temple is obviously not. There are nails in many places.

The two deceased were nailed with ten long iron nails for construction. These long iron nails were things that were more than ten years ago and are no longer available on the market.

Fang Yuanhang thought about it, and walked to a wooden pillar. The wooden pillar was already very old at first glance, and there were several old nails on it.

Fang Yuanhang wore his gloves and touched it, and then turned out the picture of the nail on the victim for comparison.

It's not the same kind, and the difference is quite big.

Fang Yuanhang pursed the corner of his mouth and took several photos.

Ten minutes later, Wu Yu returned with a tin box.

"My credentials are all inside." Wu Hou said, "You can verify it as much as possible."

Fang Yuanhang opened the tin box and saw Wuhu's ID card, undergraduate student ID, driver's license, passport, bank card and other items.

Wu Hou's real name is Fang Pingxu, 24 years old, from Los Angeles. He studied at Los Angeles Normal University for his undergraduate degree. Because he gave up his studies in his senior year as a monk, he did not get his diploma.

Fang Yuanhang asked: "Your family is in Los Angeles, why did you come to Dongye City to become a monk?"

Wu Yu said: "Although there are many well-known universities in Los Angeles, Luo Shi is a second-rate school. I originally applied for the university in Dongye City. The year before last year, I stayed in Dongye City."

"What about your family?"

"I am an orphan and grew up in an orphanage."

Fang Yuanhang was quite surprised, looked at Wu Hou's ID card again, and finally took pictures of them one by one.

Wuhu is not the only purpose of Fang Yuanhang's visit to Haijing Temple.

Fang Yuanhang suspected Wu Hu not because Wu Hu had a clear motive for committing the crime, but simply because Wu Hu had the conditions to commit the crime. According to this logic, other monks in Haijing Temple also have the conditions to commit crimes.

Mingshu asked him to let him go and investigate, and act on any thoughts, with his own master in control of the overall situation.

This undoubtedly gave him a reassurance.

In addition to enlightenment, there are five brothers who are still in Haijing Temple.

Wu Nian, 31 years old, has been in Haijing Temple for more than ten years, taciturn and doing sweeping work mechanically.

When Fang Yuanhang asked any question, he just answered "Amitabha Buddha" indifferently.

Wu Yu was about the same age as Wu Nian, but he became a monk later, only two years before Wu Yu. The gray cloth was worn on him, not like a monk's clothes, but like an improved fashion.

"I, I just saw through Hong Chen suddenly." Without waiting for Fang Yuanhang's question, Wu Yu said by himself, "I used to be rich. I drove a Lamborghini and slept with handsome men and beautiful women. Both men and women eat everything. I want What can’t you get? But I’m not happy anymore, do you understand?"

Fang Yuanhang: "..."

"You don't understand when you look at it." Wu Yu smiled: "Because you have never had these, you are a poor boy struggling with food and clothing."

Fang Yuanhang felt that he was probably at odds with this Qiyue Mountain, otherwise why would he be "shot" whenever he encountered something related to Qiyue Mountain.

After laughing twice, Wu Yu's face was suddenly covered with clouds, and even his voice changed, "The burden on my shoulders is too heavy, I can't bear it, so I might as well let it go. You see how cool I am as a monk, and I don’t need anything. Guan, just lie in this yard all day and watch the leaves and leaves fall, the flowers bloom, the clouds are surging, happy! Hey brother, are you not tired?"

Fang Yuanhang said: "You mean my job?"

"Referring to your life." Wu Yu smiled again, "Or you are just like me, and you also become a monk. When my little brother, I will cover you."

Fang Yuanhang's forehead jumped down, and followed Wu Yu's words and said, "Don't you have a junior brother?"

"You mean Wu Yu?" Wu Yu said with disdain: "Tsk, can't he get into my eyes?"

Fang Yuanhang hurriedly asked: "Why?"

"Want to know why?" Wu Yu said: "First call Senior Brother Sheng to let me listen."

Fang Yuanhang said sternly: "I'm investigating the case."

"Okay, okay, I won't tease you anymore." Wu Yu sat down neatly, "Wu Yu is not at all devoted to the Buddha, he is a layman with an improper mind, and he comes here to live just to escape reality. Look at him, he lives. It won’t be long before I leave by myself."

"Incorrect mind?" Fang Yuanhang asked, "Why do you say that?"

"Hey donor, do you think..." Wu Yu said, pointing her index finger up, "The two women on the mountain were killed by Wu Yu?"

Fang Yuanhang's face changed, "What do you know?"

Wu Yu shook his hand and said: "I don't know anything, I'm just a heartless flower monk."

There are also two older monks in Haijing Temple, 52-year-old Wu Shi and 49-year-old Wu Han. Compared with Wu Hu, Wu Nian, and Wu Lu, they are more in line with Fang Yuanhang’s monks. Image.

As for the master of Haijing Temple, Master Kouchen, who is now 73 years old, is retreating in the meditation room in the backyard.

Dongcheng Branch, Criminal Investigation Detachment.

Qiu Min's disappearance was filed for investigation. This investigation revealed that Qiu Min did work at Weixiang Law Firm when he returned to Dongye City from the north three years ago. However, his probationary period had not expired, so he offered to resign.

"It's not a matter of work ability." Park Shan, the lawyer who was in charge of guiding Qiu Min, said: "He is very smart and has his own ideas. He feels that the lawyer business is not suitable for him. We still have contact this year. Just the first half of the year. He also invited me to a meal. Why, did something happen to him?"

The branch policeman asked: "Do you know what work he did after resigning?"

"Write the official account? Or Weibo account?" Park Shan said, "I don't know."

Soon, the police found Qiu Min's real work through his online records. After abandoning his job, the top student of the prestigious school became an internet celebrity.

Qiu Min's online name is "Qiushan Sleepy", and he has registered Weibo, public account, and live broadcast account of the same name.

Three years ago, he released the first food tasting video. Now it is a popular food, drink, and fun video among young people in Dongye City. His last Weibo was published on October 4th, recommending Beicheng District. A red dates stewed chicken shop.

Qiu Min looks handsome and shows his face in all the videos. He said in the video that autumn is here, everyone should pay attention to health preservation, today I am "Amway" is...

There are a lot of comments on this Weibo, sorted by time, the most recent comments are all fans asking him when he will update his blog, and some people are worried about whether something has happened to him.

Knowing that Qiu Min's disappearance had nothing to do with the drug dealer, Zhang Xuejiao breathed a sigh of relief.

"Team Qiao, shall we investigate this case ourselves or report it to the top?" Shen Nan was uncertain about it and rushed to ask Lan Qiao.

The Criminal Investigation Detachment of the Dongcheng Sub-bureau formed a female police squadron, and the experienced Lan Qiao was the captain.

At this time, the communication and interpersonal relationship of Qiu Min before his disappearance are under investigation. Lan Qiao browsed the video produced by Qiu Min at speeds and noticed that at this time last year, Qiu Min repeatedly prayed for the Moon Mountain in “Amway”. At the beginning of the month, when Qiyueshan's ginkgo leaves hadn't turned yellow at all, Qiu Min "Amway" again.

In the video, Qiu Min smiled very brightly, walking through the quiet trails of Qiyue Mountain, photographing the kind of melancholy prosperity in the late summer.

The popularity of this video is very high, and it is Qiu Min's second most popular work in the last three months.

Ranked first is the "Chengjianghu" Jianghu Restaurant in Nancheng District.

"Qi Yueshan has only reported a case, and the Criminal Investigation Bureau is busy with that case." Lan Qiao said, "All branches are cooperating with the screening of related disappearance cases."

Shen Nan would be wrong, "The Criminal Investigation Bureau can't get started, so we won't report this case?"

Lan Qiao shook his head, "No, Qiu Min is familiar with Qiyue Mountain, and the missing time is also a bit strange. You must report it, at least let the Ming team know about it."

The female police squadron of the Criminal Investigation Detachment of the Dongcheng Sub-bureau is a scenic line of the Dongye police circle. Ming Shu was in the same class as Lan Qiao. She has always admired this female person very much. He once had the thought of digging Lan Qiao into the crime team, but Lan Qiao refused on the grounds that he could not let go of the female police squadron.

Ming Shu has always felt regretful about this matter.

The serious crime team needs elites. At present, the team is full of men. This has pros and cons. In an all-sex environment, you don’t need to worry too much about doing anything. If there is a woman in the team suddenly, then both parties It may not be possible to let go, but when investigating some special cases, it is very troublesome that there are no female police officers in the team. Lan Qiao has excellent qualities. Even if he is thrown into the men’s pile, it is the elite group. If the crime team wants to add one more A policewoman, then she is naturally the best candidate.

But because they wanted to lead the female police squadron, Ming Shu could only respect their decision.

Because of Qiu Min's case, Lan Qiao personally came to the crime team.

Ming Shu is talking to Yi Fei-Yi Fei found out on the Zijiao campus of Dongye University that Zhan Li is not an ordinary student. He participated in the National Women's Wushu Competition at the university level and entered the top 50.

Lan Qiao waited for a long time before Ming Shu hurried over and joked: "Rare, don't you suddenly figure it out. Are you going to join our crime team?"

Lan Qiao smiled and said: "I know that you are busy praying for Yueshan recently. I have a missing case here. The investigation is still handled by our squadron, but I think you need to look at it."
