sneak peek

At 05:30 in the morning, Mo Wang fell into a drowsy sleep when he suddenly felt someone scratching his hair.

He immediately jumped up, grabbed a magazine next to him, and slammed it at that person.

The person in the dark avoided it easily, stepped back a few steps and leaned against the wall and said, "Good student, it's me."

Mo Wang felt that he would have a heart attack and die in the line of duty within a few days of living opposite Gu Yexi.

Although frightened, Mo Wang still had a good temper and asked patiently, "What's wrong?"

"She shot again, and the body was just discovered."

Mo Wang woke up and jumped up from the bed, "Didn't she always shoot on Saturdays? Last night was Monday."

"Yes, she probably knew we were after her, so the action was sped up."

Mo Wang was washing up indiscriminately, and Gu Yexi, a chatterbox, followed him, saying, "I called you, but you didn't answer, and you didn't answer me when I knocked on the door. Don’t blame me, right? Originally, I could leave a message for you and go there by myself. It doesn’t mean that I have to drag you to a scene, and I don’t need so many people to go. Don’t you think you are Newcomer, let you learn and learn."

Mo Wang brushed and responded vaguely: "Yeah. Just wait for me, I'll be soon."

Gu Yexi nodded, and sat on the chair in his room with his legs crossed.

Mo Wang finished washing quickly and wanted to change clothes, but Gu Yexi had no intention of walking away.

He hesitated for a while, opened his mouth and didn't know how to tactfully let this carefree person go away, but fortunately Gu Yexi came to his senses, "I'll go downstairs and drive the car out to wait for you."

As soon as Mo Wang got into the car, Gu Yexi stuffed a sandwich and a cup of hot coffee into his arms.

Gu Yexi: "It's so early, there aren't many stores open. Just buy anything from a 24-hour convenience store, so let's just settle for it."

Mo Wang: "What about yours?"

Gu Yexi: "I'm driving, so I can't take it to the scene to eat?"

Mo Wang: "Go up after eating, I'll leave you the sandwich, I'll drink coffee."

Gu Yexi thought for a while, "Then give me half."

Mo Wang opened the sandwich and broke it into two pieces. Gu Yexi opened his mouth wide and waited for food.

Mo Wang was a little embarrassed, and quickly stuffed half a sandwich into Gu Yexi's mouth, and was accidentally licked by the other's tongue, and the back of his ears immediately became hot.

Half a sandwich was either too big or too small, and the bread was relatively dry. Gu Yexi almost choked to death when he stuffed it all into his mouth. He swallowed hard and said, "You're feeding me breakfast. Or murder me? Are you holding grudges about what happened just now and thinking about choking me to death now?"

Mo Wang's ear became even hotter, "No, I..."

"What about me, give me a sip of coffee, this sandwich is too dry, it choked me to death."

Mo Wang hurriedly handed over the straw, and then realized that the two had a cup of coffee together.

But Gu Yexi didn't care about this at all, he was only thinking about one question: the coffee in this convenience store is so bad, why does the little curly drink it with such relish?

The body was found in a community building in the south of the city. When they arrived, people who got up early for morning exercise and went to school had already gone out. When they passed by upstairs and downstairs, they saw the police and poked their heads inside curiously.

Huang Jiade lived close and arrived earlier than them. Seeing Gu Yexi, he immediately pulled him in, "Gu, this time is very strange."

Gu Yexi nodded: "I noticed that there are cameras in this building, which is different from the previous ones. The previous two incidents happened in the west of the city, but this time it was in the south of the city, far away from the murderer's safe zone, and last night was not a Saturday .”

Huang Jiade: "It's not just that, the deceased didn't live alone, he had a roommate, and the reason why he found the body so quickly was because the roommate thought it was a bit strange and found it after he came to check."

Mo Wang: "Did the deceased's roommate tell the deceased that he would not come back tonight?"

Huang Jiade picked up the deceased's mobile phone and opened WeChat, "On the contrary, the roommate sent a WeChat message to the deceased at 23 o'clock, saying that the company had dinner and he would be late to get home, and asked him not to lock the door when he was sleeping. The deceased replied, Tonight, he is going to take a person home and ask his roommate to live outside. But the roommate finally went home. It was 2 o'clock in the morning. He went to knock on the door, and the door opened a small crack. Seeing a girl, he felt embarrassed, so he went back to his room immediately. At around 4 o’clock, he got up to pee, and passed by the deceased’s room and found the door was ajar. The deceased Lying on the ground, motionless, I opened the door and went in, only to find that he was dead."

Gu Yexi: "In other words, he met the murderer face to face?"

Huang Jiade: "Well, but don't hold out hope, he said he only saw one eye of the murderer, and the lights in the room were not turned on, so basically he didn't see him."

Mo Wang asked with some doubts: "The location of the crime and the conditions for selecting the target are different from the previous two cases. Are you sure it's the same murderer?"

Huang Jiade: "I'm sure. The cause of death is the same as before, and the scars on the body are also the same, and they are more severe than the previous ones. The nail on the first toe of the deceased's right foot was pulled out."

Gu Yexi leaned closer to the corpse to look at it, and suddenly moved his nose like a dog, "Did you smell it?"

Mo Wang also leaned over to smell it: "It seems to have a bad smell?"

The forensic doctor next to him: "It's urine."

Gu Yexi raised her voice an octave, "Urine???"

"Well, there's urine on the face of the corpse."

Mo Wang: "Beating the dead is not enough, you have to pee on his face to humiliate him. I think what the murderer encountered last night stimulated her."

Gu Yexi: "It was indeed stimulated. I think it was the deceased who stimulated the murderer."

Mo Wang reacted immediately, "Do you think the deceased was the one who tortured the murderer?"

Gu Yexi: "The murderer broke his own routine. It wasn't Saturday and he was not in the west of the city. He took the risk and went to the house of a man with a roommate to kill him. He beat him harder than before and even peed on his face. Even if the deceased was not the one who abused the murderer People, there must have been conflicts between the two. By the way, did the deceased go to the bar last night?"

Huang Jiade, "Yes, my roommate said that he has recently lost love and often goes to the bar alone to drink."

Gu Yexi thought for a while, "Stay here so that Meng Ning and Li Zi don't have to come over, first check whether the suspect Wang Lili from last night is related to the deceased, if not, then it's definitely not, and check him instead Is there any record of hurting people, if there is any connection, immediately take her back to the bureau for questioning, Mo Wang and I will go to the bar to find out."

The bar that the deceased went to last night was still in the west of the city, and the location was slightly remote compared to the previous two.

When the two entered, the staff in the bar were packing their things and getting ready to leave work. The overnight work and the sudden appearance of the police made them a little confused.

A chubby elder sister asked vigilantly: "Comrade police, we are doing a legitimate business, with all the documents and no illegal activities."

Mo Wang smiled friendly, "Don't be nervous, we just came to get to know one of your guests last night."

"guest?"

Mo Wang took out his mobile phone and opened the photo of the deceased, "Do you recognize it?"

The elder sister took a serious look, and then shouted at the younger brother who was smoking a cigarette: "Amin, come here and see if it's the guest from last night."

Gu Yexi raised an eyebrow at Mo Wang, meaning there was something going on.

Amin came over, glanced at the photo, and immediately said, "Yes, it's the guest from last night."

Gu Yexi: "Did something happen last night?"

A Ming: "Last night, a girl had a good conversation with another customer, but when she saw this person, she abandoned the one she was chatting with and hooked up with this person instead. The person who was teased before was not happy, The two quarreled, and finally the man took the girl away."

Mo Wang immediately asked: "Do you still remember what that girl looked like?"

A Ming: "Long hair, she seems quite beautiful, wearing a long skirt, I didn't pay much attention, mainly trying to persuade a fight."

Gu Yexi suddenly asked anxiously: "Is the other guest a regular customer? Do you know the name?"

Amin: "I've been here a few times, but I don't know what it's called."

Mo Wang wanted to ask something else, but Gu Yexi took the lead and said to the elder sister in an unquestionable tone: "Show me the surveillance video from last night, hurry up!"

The eldest sister was frightened, and immediately led them to a small room at the back, and called up the surveillance video from last night.

"Here! Pause!" Gu Yexi pointed to a man in the surveillance video, "Mo Wang, take a picture of this, and ask Meng Ning to find out what this man's name is and where he lives."

After taking the surveillance video, Gu Yexi hurried out, and Mo Wang asked nervously, "Do you think this person is in danger?"

Gu Yexi: "Obviously, the murderer's killing frequency has accelerated. Last night she was going to the bar to attack the latest target, but she met the deceased on the way, so she changed her mind. But it doesn't mean she will let this person go , and this person will probably recognize her when he sees the murderer, so I doubt she will try to silence her."

Gu Yexi's phone rang, and it was Meng Ning calling, "Boss, I found that person, his name is Li Yang, he lives in Huayu Apartment in the west of the city, is he a suspect?"

Gu Yexi: "No, I just had contact with the murderer last night. That Wang Lili, what happened?"

Meng Ning: "She has nothing to do with the latest deceased Dong Wei, and according to the community monitoring, she was at home all night, so it shouldn't be her."

Gu Yexi: "Check out Dong Wei's social circle and screen out all suspected women. If you have any news, please contact me at any time."

The Huayu apartment happened to be very close to them, and they arrived in a few minutes. Gu Yexi rushed up to the fifth floor and knocked on the door hard.Cursing voices came from inside, "Are you sick early in the morning?!"

The door opened, and a disheveled man who got up angrily opened the door, "What are you doing?"

Gu Yexi showed his police ID, "Li Yang?"

Seeing that it was the policeman, the man's arrogance dropped a bit, and he replied nervously and hesitantly: "It's me, what's the matter?"

Gu Yexi: "Did you go to Little Lucky Bar last night?"

"Yes."

Mo Wang: "Did you have a conflict with another customer last night because of a girl?"

Li Yang immediately said: "Is that the person who complained? I didn't hit him, but just quarreled. I didn't do anything bad."

Gu Yexi: "Do you remember what that girl looked like? Have you been here before? What's her name?"

Li Yang felt a little baffled, but still answered seriously: "In terms of appearance, she has quite heavy makeup, and I can't describe it well. She said her name is Fangfang, but I don't know her full name."

Gu Yexi: "If I ask the painter to come over, can you try to describe her appearance as much as possible?"

Li Yang: "I took a photo of her last night, thinking of posting on Weibo to complain about her, but I was too sleepy to go home and forgot about it. I can give you the photo."

Mo Wang and Gu Yexi glanced at each other, they were overjoyed, now there is finally a frontal photo of the murderer!

After Gu Yexi got the photo, she immediately transferred the photo to Meng Ning and asked her to check her identity.At the same time, two police officers were arranged to accompany Li Yang, in case the murderer came to kill and silence him, and then he went back to the police station.

"How? Have you found out your identity?" Gu Yexi asked Meng Ning as soon as he returned to the bureau.

Meng Ning shook his head, "The light in this photo is not good, it's a bit blurry, the murderer's makeup is very thick, and I haven't matched the corresponding girl for the time being. By the way, I screened Dong Wei's social circle, but this guy is a girl. Excellent, women like him very much, and I haven't found any enemies with him, and this guy doesn't look like a scumbag who beats women, are you sure he knows the murderer?"

Gu Yexi didn't answer, and began to knock on the table again, lost in thought.All the current calculations are logical, but it seems that there is something wrong. What is the problem?

Li Zi suddenly ran in, "Boss, there is a major discovery. The urine on the deceased's face, according to DNA, is male."
