Chapter 23 Murder Cases

On Monday, the weather is fine.

In a place like Songhai, traveling during the morning rush hour is always a headache. Whether it’s elevated or on the ground, the road conditions are so congested that people’s blood pressure soars.

Ordinary office workers will not have to worry about traffic jams when they take the subway, but they have to withstand the test of being surrounded by chickens.

In the early morning sunshine, Zhang Yuanqing was riding a shared bicycle through the bustling streets of Songhai with a backpack on his back, with pancakes in his mouth.

He easily overtook one after another private car, commercial vehicle and bus, and the vigor of the youth flew along with his bangs.

Songhai University is five or six kilometers away from grandma's house, and it only takes 15 minutes to ride a bicycle, so he usually doesn't live on campus.

Because he was promoted to the God of Night Tour, he pedaled a very tiring bicycle on weekdays, and he rode to the gate of the university without stopping. He took out his mobile phone to check, and it only took 10 minutes.

If there were not too many battery cars on the bicycle lane, he could be faster.

Songhai University was founded at the beginning of the last century, 120 years ago, and is one of the top universities in the country.

In addition to high-quality teacher resources, the two biggest characteristics of Songhai University are: famous flowers are good at finding good masters, and warriors dare to fencing.

Grandma used to warn my aunt that girls should know how to protect themselves at school.When I get older, I have to warn my grandson to protect himself at school.

Grandma is very dissatisfied with this world.

Entering the school gate, passing through the main axis with the sculpture of the founder, he rode slowly towards the teaching building along the road full of sycamore trees on the right.

The environment in the college is elegant and quiet. Students are either shooting short videos, chatting on benches by the side of the road, or hurrying to class with their textbooks.

Spacious and clean streets, green lawns, and old dormitory buildings, at a glance, it looks more like a quiet high-end community, and the feeling of a school is not heavy.

Zhang Yuanqing parked his bicycle outside the building and entered the complex building with his schoolbag on his back.

When he came to the trapezoidal classroom, Zhang Yuan took a look. The students were scattered in twos and threes, and many students skipped class.

He picked a seat at random, and as soon as he sat down, he heard two boys behind him talking in a low voice:

"I just saw Xu Yingying at the school gate, and she is waiting for the sponsor's father again."

"Nonsense, how could my goddess be kept."

"Really, there are men who come to pick her up every Monday. They drive a luxury car worth hundreds of thousands. I saw it last Monday."

"See it clearly? Maybe it's an online car-hailing car."

"Would you kiss an online car-hailing driver?"

"Damn it, when I was in middle school, girls liked to be bullies, and when they went to college, they also liked rich people outside. When will ordinary boys stand up?"

Xu Yingying is a girl in the same class, she is very beautiful, and she is their class flower.

Zhang Yuanqing couldn't help turning his head back, and joked with a smile: "The wife in the hard disk can help you stand up."

The two boys didn't seem to expect Zhang Yuanqing to interrupt, and were taken aback for a moment.

Zhang Yuanqing looked at them and said, "What's wrong?"

The male classmate named Li Lesheng gave a "ha" and said, "Zhang Yuanqing, did something good happen to you today, it's not like you."

Zhang Yuanqing was taken aback: "Why do you say that?"

Just as Li Lesheng was about to speak, the teacher with black-rimmed glasses walked in with a book in his arms, and the chattering classroom immediately fell silent.

Kangyang District, Mai Le Hotel.

"Ding!"

On the 16th floor, the elevator door was open. Li Dongze, who was dressed in a formal suit with a black vest and a white shirt, walked out of the car with a cane.

His thin face was full of solemnity, and Guan Ya followed behind him.

The guests on the entire floor were emptied, and a cordon was set up at the intersection where the elevator led to the corridor, and two security guards stood by the cordon.

Guan Ya stepped on her high heels and took out her ID to signal.

The security guard immediately moved out of the way.

On the way from the corridor to the room, several security guards in uniform were busy, taking pictures, or collecting fingerprints, hair and other things.

Li Dongze passed by the crowd, entered the hotel room, and immediately smelled a bloody smell.

He glanced at the hotel suite, and there were two corpses covered in white cloth lying on the bed, and the white sheets were stained with large dark red bloodstains.

Li Dongze stretched out his cane and lifted the white cloth, revealing a man and a woman lying naked on the bed.

He was silent for a while, and his voice was low: "It is indeed Zhao Yingjun."

Guan Ya carefully inspected every corner of the room, wisps of white mist overflowed from his pupils, and after a while, he said:

"There are no traces of fighting in the room, no traces of human treatment. There are only two condoms in the trash can, but three condoms are missing from the box"

After speaking, she glanced at the female victim with some pity.

Li Dongze put the white cloth back on and said in a deep voice:
"Guan Ya, you stay here to help the security guards collect fingerprints and hair, and retrieve surveillance video. I want to contact Chief Fu and the captains. I may need to go to a meeting."

Guan Ya nodded slightly: "I will synchronize the scene details and character information to your mobile phone later."

Zhao Yingjun is a consultant of the Xiangshui Road Public Security Department, a member of the White Tiger Brigade, and a second-level scout.

A member of the Five Elements League was killed, which is a big event.

On the second floor of the villa, there is a small meeting room.

The meeting room is decorated very delicately and luxuriously, the floor is covered with soft wool carpets, and a long solid wood conference table is placed in the middle.

On the table are exquisite fruit platters, crystal clear ham slices, expensive imported red wine, boxes of cigars, and exquisite desserts.

At the end of the conference table, a white projection curtain hangs down, playing a surveillance video of the hotel.

In the video, a man wearing a peaked cap and a mask came from the direction of the elevator, walked to the door of the guest room, took out the room card to open the door, and entered the room.

After 40 minutes, the man came out of the room, put his hands in his pockets, and left with his head down.

At the end of the video, Li Dongze pressed the pause button, looked at the captains at the table, and said:

"I received a report from the hotel this morning. When the waiter was cleaning the room, he couldn't knock on the door, so he entered the room to check. It turned out that the two had been killed. Zhao Yingjun had been abused before his death. The fatal wound was pierced through the heart by a sharp weapon.

"The female deceased named Liu Xiao'e was also pierced through the heart with a sharp weapon, but she was not abused. According to the missing condom at the scene, we suspect that she was insulted by the murderer before her death.

"In addition, the Public Security Bureau checked the mobile phones of the two and confirmed that Liu Xiao'e was Zhao Yingjun's mistress.

"We checked the surveillance cameras at other entrances and exits of the hotel, but we didn't find out how the murderer left. He should have special means to avoid the surveillance. Preliminary speculation is that the murderer is a walker in the spirit realm."

There were six people sitting at the table.

The chief is a young man in a white suit, with the aloofness and nobility of a son of aristocratic family, with a handsome short ponytail, his face is like a sculpture, handsome and unstoppable.

The first position on the left is empty, which is Li Dongze's position.

On the right is a woman holding an orange cat, wearing a cheongsam painted in ink and wash. The plumpness and enchantment of a mature woman are undoubtedly evident. The well-maintained beautiful face is firm and fair, with light makeup, and her temperament is quiet and elegant.

Beside her is a middle-aged man wearing a miner's hat and labor protection uniform. His dark skin shows the hard work of a worker.

Opposite her was a gym instructor in a tight-fitting suit. His thick arms were comparable to a woman's thin waist. His brows and eyes were sharp, and a sense of irritability rushed across his face.

The last one is a woman at 27, wearing a white racing suit, tight leather pants, black wavy hair, and an oval face. She is rustic and handsome.

These five are the captains of the Spiritual Realm Walker Team in Kangyang District, and several others did not attend due to various reasons.

The young man in the white suit looked around, his dark brown eyes went into the lake calmly, and said lightly:

"Everyone, what do you think? Captain Qingteng, you speak first."

The beautiful woman in the cheongsam frowned slightly: "Ordinary spirit walkers dare not kill our official people. Could it be the spirit walkers of evil professions who did it?"

Li Dongze replied: "We are still investigating Zhao Yingjun's recent interpersonal relationships."

If it was done by a spiritual practitioner of an evil profession, the seriousness of the incident would rise to a higher level.

Huo Shida Muba raised his eyebrows and burst into anger, "Evil profession? This group of stinky rats in the gutter, dare to kill people from my Five Elements League, I will make him pay the price."

The faces of the others were solemn, and the white dragon in the racing suit pondered:

"How is Zhao Yingjun's combat strength?"

Li Dongze looked at Fu Qingyang.

Fu Qingyang said: "There is a defensive item."

Hearing this, Bailong's face was solemn, "Although the level 2 scout is not good at fighting, it is not so easy to kill him with defensive props, let alone without disturbing the guests in the next room. , and preliminarily judged the strength of the murderer."

Tang Guoqiang, the owner of the construction company wearing a miner's hat, said in a deep voice:

"very powerful."

Da Muba snorted coldly, and repeated what he said just now: "It doesn't matter if you are very strong, anyone who dares to kill my Five Elements Alliance will die no matter how strong they are."

Bailong silently supported his forehead, wondering if he could kick out the bastards of the Red Fire Gang first when discussing matters.

Li Dongze said: "After our investigation, Zhao Yingjun has many mistresses, and he especially likes to take care of female college students. We are investigating his mistresses one by one."

Dajiba frowned and said, "Why?"

"The hotel where Zhao Yingjun and his mistress had a tryst is not fixed, but the murderer was able to find the address of the hotel and lock the room number, which shows that he has a certain understanding of Zhao Yingjun's trajectory. He either knew someone or followed him for a long time." Li Dongze said:

"The woman who knows you best is always the woman next to you. Maybe we can get some clues from Zhao Yingjun's mistress."

The captains nodded solemnly.

Li Dongze continued:

"Zhao Yingjun was tortured and abused before his death. Think about it, what did the murderer torture? What did he ask? Regardless of whether the murderer was a vendetta or an evil profession, this is a question worthy of our careful attention."

The faces of the captains present changed slightly.

Evil professions and lawful professions have always been incompatible, hunting and tracking each other.

What can interest the evil profession is of course the information about the official spirit walkers, and even their hiding places.

And if the murderer is not an evil professional, a powerful spirit walker risked offending the official organization, sneaked into the hotel to torture and kill people, the truth behind it may be more complicated.

Qingteng said in a deep voice: "We must find out the murderer as soon as possible."

Hearing the words, Da Muba looked left and right, and said, "Why didn't Yuan Ting come, let him devour Zhao Yingjun's spirit body and obtain Zhao Yingjun's memory. We will then know who the murderer is."

The importance of Ye Youshen, who can control the spirit body, is instantly highlighted.

Fu Qingyang shook his head and said:
"Yesterday, Taiyimen summoned all the official night tour gods to Beijing to discuss matters, and Yuan Ting is not in Songhai."

His expression was calm from beginning to end, as if he would not panic even if the sky fell.

Going to Beijing to discuss matters?The hearts of the captains sank. If Yuan Ting was not there, the Night Gods from other regions would definitely not be there either.

Is this too much of a coincidence?The murderer didn't do it early, and didn't do it later, but he chose when Ye Youshen came to Beijing in groups.

The big muscle bully said angrily: "What's the matter with the Taiyi Sect, if we don't have a meeting early, we can't have a meeting, pick this time? We should have cultivated our own nocturnal gods long ago."

Li Dongze said helplessly:

"The causal relationship is reversed. The murderer picked it at this time. Forget it, it's not important. Don't worry everyone, we have our own night wandering spirit."
