Chapter 39

After more than an hour, Jia De and Li Zi came back.

Gu Yexi: "Where are people?"

Li Zi: "He was taken to the interrogation room. He looks quite frail. He doesn't look like a murderer."

Gu Yexi: "Did you find anything in the small forest?"

Huang Jiade: "The location of the small forest is quite remote. We found it after searching for a while, and almost got lost. The area of ​​the forest is small, and it seems that no one will go there all year round. We just searched and found it. Tire marks. According to the situation at the scene, the murderer’s car was parked in the same place twice. Bloodstains belonging to the two deceased were found at the scene, and there were traces of people being dragged on the ground. The murderer didn’t seem to think about cleaning up the scene at all, probably It was determined that no one would come to this place.”

Mo Wang frowned slightly, "There are many barren places in the new area, and the murderer has many options to find no man's land. Why does he have to go to this small forest, and deliberately attack in the same place? Since the small forest is so hidden, how did the murderer know?" From this place?"

Gu Yexi: "The murderer must have been to this small forest many times, so he is so familiar with it. Every time he strikes at the same place, this place should have a special meaning to him. Lizi Jiade, you will take someone back tomorrow Take a trip to the small forest and dig deeper for clues at the scene of the crime, I think there will be unexpected discoveries."

Wang Xianfeng wears glasses and looks gentle, white and tender, very thin, sitting upright, and looks like a monitor.As soon as he opened his mouth, the voice sounded too nice, and he was indeed a professional customer service.

Wang Xianfeng: "You want to ask about Huang Yuan?"

Gu Yexi raised her eyebrows: "So, it's true that he deliberately interfered with your job transfer?"

Wang Xianfeng lowered his head slightly, "It's not true, it's just what everyone said."

Mo Wang: "Why do they say that?"

Wang Xianfeng: "I don't know."

Mo Wang: "Then is there any festival between you?"

Wang Xianfeng shook his head, "We don't actually know each other well, but we have overlapped at work. I work the night shift and he works the day shift. We don't usually see each other a few times, and we don't chat in private."

Gu Yexi moved closer and asked, "How do you know it's not true?"

Wang Xianfeng was slightly taken aback, "Huh?"

Gu Yexi: "Rumors say that he asked someone to pretend to be a user and call you to complain. How do you know he didn't do this?"

Wang Xianfeng bit his lip, "Because... because I did have a bad attitude towards a user at the time."

Gu Yexi stared at Wang Xianfeng sharply, "But you can't be sure, he didn't do it, right? Everyone spread it like this, so you never doubted it?"

Wang Xianfeng: "I asked him, and he said no."

Mo Wang: "Maybe you asked him, and he admitted it, and then you killed him."

Wang Xianfeng immediately denied it, "I didn't."

Gu Yexi: "One o'clock in the morning last Friday and two o'clock in the morning this Tuesday, where were you?"

Wang Xianfeng: "I'm sleeping at home."

Mo Wang: "Can someone testify for you?"

Wang Xianfeng shook his head, "I live by myself."

Gu Yexi tapped her finger on the table, "That means there is no alibi. Brother, it's hard for us to believe you like this."

Wang Xianfeng hesitated for a while, and finally said, "He didn't offend me. I spread the rumor that he interfered with my job transfer."

Mo Wang was surprised, "You said it yourself?"

Gu Yexi sneered, "You applied for job transfer many times but failed, but Huang Yuan succeeded in applying for the first time. You were jealous, and just happened to be complained, so you made rumors and wanted to whitewash your work. mistakes, and at the same time want to damage his image in the company."

Wang Xianfeng bit his lip and lowered his head, "I didn't do it on purpose. I was just angry at the time, so I told others that. Who knows, it spread and spread. He came to me to explain, I I can’t tell him that I spread the rumors, so I can only say that I don’t believe the rumors, and he seems relieved. I’m actually quite sorry.”

Leaving the interrogation room, Mo Wang asked, "How?"

Gu Yexi shook his head, "He's just a clown who hides behind and makes trouble secretly, he doesn't have the guts to kill people and cut off his fingers. And look at his small body, can he beat the dead like that?"

Mo Wang: "Well, there is one thing I am very concerned about. He said that Huang Yuan specifically asked him to explain, and he was relieved after the misunderstanding was clarified. It has been so long, and this rumor is still circulating in the company. You can know that Huang Yuan He didn't ask Wang Xianfeng to clarify himself, but planned to let the rumors run their own course. That is to say, he asked Wang Xianfeng to make it clear that he really didn't want the other party to misunderstand him, and he didn't want to make a scene for the sake of establishing his image. This kind of A person with such a good personality should not offend others so easily, how did he offend the murderer?"

Gu Yexi shrugged, not surprised, "The murderer is sensitive and suspicious because of his own reasons, and it has nothing to do with what the deceased did. Even if the deceased smiled at him in a friendly way, he could take it as being ridiculed."

Back in the office, Meng Ning bit a lollipop and said inarticulately, "What, is it him?"

Mo Wang shook his head.

Meng Ning: "I knew it was not that simple."

Gu Yexi sat down on Meng Ning's table, "What, did you find anything else?"

Meng Ning: "The eccentric people on your gossip note all have alibi. There are two people who have had a major change at work. One of them has been injured and has old problems. Does he have the strength to beat someone? As for the other one, the first deceased worked overnight at the company when he died, as evidenced by the surveillance video. As for those who joined the company in the past three months, you know, it’s the graduation season and many people have been recruited, among them There are 32 men, so it’s really hard to find out.”

Gu Yexi: "How many people have had contact with the two deceased?"

Meng Ning: "From a business point of view, there are 5 of them, all of which have been checked and found to be suspicious. But didn't you say that the murderer was very sensitive and suspicious, maybe the deceased accidentally stepped on the murderer's foot in the dining hall and was targeted , I don’t think it’s reliable to check like this.”

Gu Yexi pinched the center of her eyebrows, "I always feel that something is missing somewhere, and I have to go back to Dream Factory to check."

At 5 o'clock in the morning, Gu Yexi's phone rang crazily. He picked up the pillow to cover the phone, but it didn't help, it still rang.

He barely opened his eyes, "Huh?"

Huang Jiade's voice came over, "A new corpse has appeared, and the south of the city is facing the street."

When Gu Yexi and Mo Wang arrived at the scene of the crime, it was already dawn, and the morning sun shone on their bodies, making them warm and comfortable. The breeze blowing on their faces seemed to be kissed by clouds.If it weren't for the presence of a dead body next to it, it would have been a pleasant morning.

Like the previous two corpses, the deceased also died in his car, tied to the co-pilot's seat.This time it was his lips that were cut off.

Huang Jiade: "I'm also an employee of DreamWorks, called Zhang Jianian. What does cutting off your lips mean? You said something you shouldn't have said? Shouldn't you cut off your tongue?"

Gu Yexi stared at the corpse for a while, and the expression on his face became excited, "No, lips are a symbol of intimacy, more like, kissing someone who shouldn't be kissed. I know something went wrong, the deceased It is true that the murderer was offended, but it was not directly offending the murderer himself as we thought, but the person the murderer liked. The meaning of the punishment for the three dead is: touching people who shouldn’t be touched, looking at people who shouldn’t be seen , Kiss someone who shouldn't be kissed."

Huang Jiade: "Could it be that the three deceased together raped the girl the murderer liked, so the murderer wanted to punish them?"

Gu Yexi: "It won't be as serious as aggression. If it is, it won't be as simple as cutting lips. It should be just flirting."

Mo Wang: "As long as we find out who this girl is, we should be able to follow the clues and find the murderer."

Gu Yexi stretched her waist, "Okay, according to what I said yesterday, Jia De and Li Zi went back to the small forest to find clues, and Mo Wang and I went to the Dreaming Field again to find the murderer's goddess."

Leaving the murder scene, it was still very early, and there was still more than an hour before the dream field went to work. Gu Yexi was sleepy and hungry, and was too lazy to move in the car. Mo Wang got out of the car to buy him breakfast.When Mo Wang came back, he found Gu Yexi curled up in the car and fell asleep.

Mo Wang smiled slightly, and sat in the car cautiously, not wanting to wake him up, and turned up the air conditioner, in case he would catch cold from the cold wind while sleeping.

Mo Wang put the breakfast aside and stared carefully at Gu Yexi's sleeping face.Gu Yexi usually looks handsome, but when he falls asleep, he becomes a little funny.At a glance, you can tell that the hair that hasn't been combed in the morning is a bit messy, the mouth is slightly open, and the corners of the mouth are drooling, and the eyeballs are moving as if they are dreaming.

Mo Wang wondered what Gu Yexi would dream of, would he dream of him?If so, what kind of dream would it be?

If they dream about each other at the same time, will they meet each other in the same dream?

Mo Wang couldn't help but move closer to Gu Yexi's direction, he moved closer to Gu Yexi's face, smelling the unique scent of books on his body.It's hard to imagine that a serious crime policeman with a beard and a big grin would smell like a book, but Gu Yexi is such a magical existence.

Mo Wang couldn't help but moved closer, and he could feel the hot air exhaled by the other party on his cheek.For the past few days, Mo Wang has been patiently waiting for the other party's reply. He didn't dare to rush Gu Yexi, fearing that if he chased him too closely, he would think too much, and then ran away.But waiting patiently does not mean that he is not impatient. Sometimes he will suddenly feel a little scared. What if the final answer is still rejection?The words have already been put there, if I was rejected, would I really be willing to leave?

He stared closely at the person in front of him, really wanting to have the ability of the protagonist of Inception, to sneak into Gu Yexi's dream, plant the idea of ​​being with him in him, and then wait for Gu Yexi to wake up, he can do without Restrain yourself, you can kiss this fool.

Gu Yexi's nose tip got a long eyelash at some point, Mo Wang couldn't hold it back, he reached out and touched it lightly, trying to take the eyelash off.As soon as he touched it, Gu Yexi opened his eyes.There were brown ripples slightly in the black eyes, Mo Wang saw himself in those eyes, and was a little stunned for a moment.

Gu Yexi half-closed her eyes, "What are you doing?"

Mo Wang: "I...your nose has an eyelash..."

Gu Yexi acted like I believe you have ghosts.

"Look." Mo Wang flusteredly showed him his fingers, trying to prove his words, but his eyelashes had fallen to nowhere, and his fingers were empty.

Gu Yexi raised her eyebrows, "What are you looking at? Your fingerprints are big and round?"

Mo Wang blinked his eyes, decided to act as if nothing had happened, and handed the breakfast to Gu Yexi, "Are you hungry? Eat breakfast first, it should be almost time to finish."

Gu Yexi started eating sullenly, while Mo Wang pretended to concentrate on playing with his mobile phone, but actually just swipe on the table.

Suddenly a big hand landed on Mo Wang's head, Gu Yexi scratched his hair as usual, but seemed to be gentler than usual.

Then Mo Wang heard Gu Yexi whisper: "I..."

"Huh?" Mo Wang turned his head to stare at Gu Yexi.

Gu Yexi paused for a long time, and finally said: "I'm full, let's go to Dream Factory."

"En." Mo Wang was disappointed for a while, but that's okay, at least he wasn't refusing.

The two came to the Dream Factory again, and learned about their relationship status with the friends in the company of the three deceased.The first deceased, Huang Yuan, because his girlfriend was jealous, he usually kept a distance from other girls. He had no romantic partners, and he had never seen him tease a girl.The second deceased, Deng Changhui, was single. Because of his good personality and good looks, he usually didn't need to flirt with girls. They were all surrounded by the girls themselves, and there were several ambiguous objects.The third deceased, Zhang Jianian, was ordinary-looking but sweet-mouthed, and all the girls in the same department had been molested by him.

Gu Yexi and Mo Wang have met all the girls who were rumored to be ambiguous among the three, but none of the girls had contact with all three of them, at most they knew two of them at the same time.They also didn't feel that the deceased was harassing them, it was just a normal conversation.Two of them were pursued by other colleagues in the company, but the pursuers who checked them all had alibi at the time of the crime.

Gu Yexi slumped on the chair, "Why are you so fat?"

Mo Wang: "I think our thinking is correct. The murderer is someone from the company. The girl he had a crush on was molested by the three deceased. It's just that we haven't found this girl yet."

Gu Yexi wanted to say something, but the phone rang, and it was Huang Jiade who called, "Gu, we found something in the small forest."

Gu Yexi's expression turned serious, "Say."

Huang Jiade: "A corpse was dug up from the ground of the crime scene. It seems that he has been dead for a long time."

Gu Yexi: "Let's come here now."

The small forest is about a 20-minute drive from the dream field, which is the opposite direction to the city center.The road was deserted, with no passers-by.

Mo Wang asked: "Dream Factory has never had any missing employees. What is the relationship between the person who was dug up and the murderer?"

Just as Gu Yexi was about to answer, there was a sudden "bang", a car hit them from the side, and he couldn't dodge it in time, and was hit directly.Gu Yexi tried hard to control the car, but it was useless. The car turned more than half a circle under the violent impact, and finally hit a tree on the side of the road and stopped.

Gu Yexi's head jerked and he didn't know where he hit it, his eyes darkened, and he passed out.
