The daily life of a double-faced rookie and an awkward old detective

Yuan Che stood at the door of the coffee shop, feeling that he had used the wrong word.

When I walked into the coffee shop for the fourth time, the students who had been called back just now and those who hadn’t run out were gathering together in small groups to chat.In addition to being very afraid of the isolated blood road, no one stepped in even if there was no isolation belt, most of the people's faces no longer showed frightened expressions, only a few people were still immersed in the shock just now.

He looked and looked among the group of people, but there was no one who seemed to put paper in He Chao's pocket.Their expressions and reactions are basically within the normal range except for the rapid recovery.

Maybe this person put the paper in before He Chao came to the coffee shop, just like He Chao was probably poisoned before he came to the coffee shop.

The big-eyed waitress was sitting alone on the seat next to the bar, rubbing a straw with her fingers, looking thoughtful.Behind her, a boy with a cartoon Band-Aid on his arm was still taking selfies, and his phone was beeping.

This voice seemed to annoy the girl, she looked back at the boy and complained dissatisfiedly:

"Can you be quiet? You are heartless, taking selfies at this time?"

The boy was handsome and thin, but his temper was not weak at all, so he came back:

"I didn't take pictures of you, why are you so anxious? Then I have to ask for your permission to take pictures of my own face? Why are you so narcissistic?"

The girl stood up and pushed the chair until it creaked. She was about to roll up her sleeves and argue with the boy, but all her movements stopped suddenly, and it happened that Gu Huayu, who was asking questions next to her, said:

"Student, be quiet. Delete all the photos on your phone. Didn't I tell you just now? Taking pictures is forbidden here."

The boy put away his mobile phone in dissatisfaction, but the girl was still standing there. After a while, she slowly sat back on the chair.

Yuan Che was about to go over to have a chat with that girl, when Qiu Chen, the person in charge of the trace inspection department, came over to greet Yuan Che:

"The second crime scene has been investigated. This is a public place. Footprints and fingerprints are of little value. The victim's blood showed that she had a vein cut while sitting there. There is some foundation powder in the bathroom sink, which should be meaningless. It is also possible for a woman who is on a date to come in and get a make-up fix. There is also a gold thread on the door latch in the bathroom, and we are not sure what it is, we need to check and compare."

Yuan Che: "Thanks for your hard work, can the isolation belt at the entrance be removed? After all, it is on a university campus."

Qiu Chen nodded: "All the corners here, even the fine dust, have been photographed, so that we can reorganize the scene later. That's it."

Qiu Chen left the coffee shop with his people, and Yuan Che went straight to the girl with big eyes.

That girl seemed to know that she was going to be questioned. Ever since she saw Yuan Che come in and looked at her, she put down the straw in her hand and stared straight back. She didn't even consciously tuck her hair behind her ears. for a moment.

Yuan Che tried to make the most kind expression and walked to her side: "Let's have a chat."

The girl hesitated for a moment, then pointed to a double seat near the inside: "Sit there, I'll pour you a glass of water."

"No need." Yuan Che looked at the utensils in the room, and there were not many utensils in the room, but she really felt that his throat had started to smoke after reminding her so much. He pointed to the bottled water behind him and took it out of his pocket. Out of two dollars thrown on the counter.

The girl handed him the water, and followed him to the double seat.

Yuan Che walked to the place she pointed, and sat down on the chair. The previous hangover seemed to have not recovered, and it was the hottest time now, and now his temples were aching.

The girl sat down opposite Yuan Che, and deliberately puffed out her chest, as if saying that I was ready.

Yuan Che gulped down the water in the bottle with a few gulps, and the ice water poured into his esophagus and flowed into his stomach, stimulating every cell in his body, and suddenly he became energetic as if he had been injected with chicken blood.

Yuan Che put down the empty bottle, and said in a voice that he felt very gentle: "Don't be so nervous, we are just asking routinely."

"I'm not nervous, you can ask." Just when she said she wasn't nervous, her Adam's apple trembled, and she was sitting in a straight posture, because the muscles in her shoulders were trembling slightly because she was too tense, and her breathing became obviously short of breath.

"Your name and age." Yuan Che took the notepad and began to write wildly.

"My name is Liu Yi, 20 years old, a sophomore majoring in ancient Chinese literature."

"Are you from this city?"

"Does this have anything to do with what's happening now?" Liu Yi asked slightly, tilting his head.If it weren't for this situation, her action would have been cute.

It's a pity that the opposite is a man who doesn't understand the style. He didn't even look at it, but just lowered his head and recorded: "No, it's just a simple background check."

"Why do I feel like I'm checking my household registration? I'm not. I live here on campus."

"How long have you been working here?"

"Half a year, the environment here is good, not so complicated, not too tiring."

"Do you know He Chao?"

"The famous Professor He Chao is simply a star professor in our college, who doesn't know him?"

"You seem a little insincere, do you have any dissatisfaction with him?"

"I just don't like what he's doing."

"for example?"

"For example, he will use credits to card us and ask us to do something for him other than study."

"for example?"

Liu Yi bit his dry lips lightly and said hesitantly, "For example, he will ask a female classmate to write an article for him as a ghostwriter, the kind that will be published in a magazine."

"that's it?"

"Also, there is also the fact that he will take special care of some students with good family conditions and backgrounds, and those who have no money or power like us will be ranked behind."

"But the professor He I heard is not like this. He is a person with a high professional level, self-cultivation and integrity."

Liu Yi scoffed at Yuan Che's words, and snorted:

"Anyone can say good things."

"Who is saying good things about him? Is there no one saying bad things about him?"

"He really has a way of teaching, which is easy to understand and humorous. As for ethics, I don't agree with him."

"Very well, I like to hear bad things about other people. Tell me, is there anything different besides what you just said? For example, who has such a bad relationship with you that you want to kill him?"

"As far as I know, no. I was deeply hurt by it, but I just disdain it. No matter how great he is, can he stop us from graduating? If we leave here, who will hate him. That's all, nothing else."

"When he comes to the store, does he always take a single seat by himself?"

"Well, I heard that when someone started talking to him, he immediately issued an order to evict the guests. After a long time, no one else would sit where he was seen."

"Does he sit in a fixed position every time he comes?"

"Almost, occasionally someone here will take the initiative to give him a place. Who made him a doctoral supervisor?"

"When you saw him today, did you notice anything special?"

"No, just with a sullen face, he has been reading, but I found that he didn't even turn a page."

"Is this common?"

"He comes here to take a book, and most of the time he really reads it. I really don't understand why he reads in such a noisy place without waiting in such a clean office."

"Is he alone every time he comes?"

"Well, they're all alone."

"Do you know his lover?"

"I know, she often comes to the school to look for Professor He, and Professor He always orders flowers for her, she is very loving." Liu Yi said this with the expression that Lu Yirou's marriage to He Chao is so worthless.

"Order flowers? How do you know he ordered flowers?"

"Once I went to deliver my homework, I heard him call and said that he wanted the same 59 roses to be sent to the old place. I didn't hear everything, so I walked into the office. When he saw me going in, he didn't say anything. Probably because he is afraid that others will know that his wife is strict. He is very face-saving."

"It's only once, how do you know it's always fixed?"

"He said that he was in the same old place, which meant that it was not once or twice, and the store knew what it was. Another time, when I was shopping, I saw him buying flowers in a small flower shop, holding a bouquet of roses in his hands.

"How is his relationship with his fellow professors?"

"What we have seen has always looked good." Liu Yi bit her lips again, rubbing the hem of the brown apron with her fingers.

"What time did he come today? During the time he was here, has anyone had contact with him, or with the drinks he drank?"

"He came after eleven o'clock. If, if I'm not so busy, maybe I can notice who has contact with him."

"Do you know anything else about him?"

"Oh, by the way, when I went to work this morning, I saw him walking out of a path in the woods, looking very flustered."

"Which way?"

"It's the path from the office building to the school gate."

"What time is it in the morning?"

"Six in the morning."

"so early?"

"So, I'm a little surprised, why so early?"

"And then? Where did he go?"

"I don't know. I was rushing to work. I didn't see where he went. I just went to the office."

"Is there anything else going on?"

Liu Yi paused and said, "No more, that's all I know."

"Okay, if you think of anything or hear anything again, call me." Yuan Che handed Liu Yi a business card, saw Liu Yi's hand trembling slightly as he took the business card, and stared at Liu Yi again .

This girl is very nervous, even more nervous than before she was about to talk, shouldn't she relax after the question?Why is she even more nervous?

Liu Yi carefully put the business card in the pocket of the apron, and then let out a long breath: "Then I'll go to work."

Yuan Che nodded and saw Liu Yi walking back to the bar with a stiff body.

Yuan Che looked around, those who had been questioned had all left, and there were still a few sporadic ones waiting to be questioned, who seemed not in a hurry at all.The bodies were carried away, and their fears were taken with them.Waiting for the boring people to lower their heads and fiddle with their phones, it is estimated that what happened here today has spread throughout the city and even the whole country.

Yuan Che looked at the time, dialed Guo Turong's phone, and was connected immediately after a ring, but it wasn't Guo Turong, it was Yu Chilin's voice.

"What's the matter?" The other end was still very rude.

"It's not your turn to do anything, let Lao Guo answer the phone." Yuan Che shot back.

"He's not old, why do you call him that?"

"We are very close, we can call you what we like, I warn you, I am talking about business, if you delay, be careful to turn your face on old Guo." Yuan Che secretly smiled in his heart. If Guo Turong knew that the bear boy was arguing for him, he would not know what it was Feeling.

Yu Chilin on the opposite side snorted, followed by the sound of footsteps and the sound of the door opening, and Guo Turong exclaimed: "Hey, I'm squatting in the toilet, don't you know that other people can't watch when they go to the toilet?"

Yu Chilin said displeasedly: "I'm not just watching, your team leader called."

"Phone? Why didn't I hear the ringing? Hello? Che?"

"Old Guo, the He Chao we were looking for today was killed in front of us. He Chao's lover tried to commit suicide, and now Ke Ran sent him to the hospital where you live. It is probably here now. Go and see, Ke Ran is a man after all. Hairy child, I don't worry."

"Okay, I'll go right away, wait a minute" Then the voice of the microphone seemed to be covered, but the faint voice from the opposite side could still be heard, and Guo Turong reprimanded softly, "Why don't you leave?" , don't you think it stinks?"

Yu Chilin didn't answer, followed by a sound of closing the door.

When Guo Turong picked up the phone, Yuan Che joked: "What? Have you been sexually harassed?"

The sound of flushing water came from the phone, making Guo Turong's voice a little vague: "Get out of here. Hey, what's going on?"

Yuan Che briefly told what happened, and Guo Turong was amazed: "It's really rare that people die for love these days."

Yuan Che suddenly said something that didn't match what he had just said: "What kind of flowers do you usually give your girlfriend?"

"My girlfriend? Why do you ask this? Why do you have a date?"

"You answer me first, I asked first."

"She likes the combination of green chrysanthemums and baby's breath. When we first dated, I gave her roses. She said that roses were too fragile and had thorns. She didn't like them, so she didn't send them anymore. If you send flowers, please inquire first. It’s better to send what the other party likes.”

Yuan Che didn't answer him, but simply said: "That's it, keep an eye on them." Before Guo Turong could say anything, Yuan Che hung up the phone.

They went to Lu Yirou's house in the morning, and there were lilies on the table in their living room, and the tablecloths and curtains in his house were all light-colored, and the flowers on the curtains were also lilies.

Yuan Che opened Ke Ran's WeChat dialog box: "Ask Lu Yirou what flowers he likes."

After waiting for a while, Ke Ran replied with one word: "Okay."

This person, who talked a lot just now, skipped every word.

Then Yuan Che asked a few more people, and it turned out that except for what Liu Yi said was of some value, the others were all speculations. There was even a boy who said that He Chao was gay, otherwise he would not want to have such a beautiful wife. go home.

However, apart from Liu Yi, no one saw He Chao this morning.On the contrary, some people said that He Chao has always walked with square steps, and it is not his style to be in a hurry.

After all the questions were asked, everyone left their contact information and then dispersed. In the coffee shop, only the boss with an ugly face was left sitting behind the bar in a daze.

Yuan Che leaned on the back of the chair, looking at the photo of the piece of paper that he just took in his mobile phone, with a serious expression on his face.

These simple words are actually a declaration of war, and the murderer is declaring war on them.

From this point of view, the case of these two days seems to be not so simple anymore.

Was the death of the female deceased and Sui Yuliang because of a secret lover among them?

He Chao, who is suspected to be Qu Jing's secret lover, was killed. Could it be arranged by the murderer for the purpose of killing people?Liu Yi said that he saw He Chao rushing around the campus in a panic early in the morning, why did he panic?What did he see?

Does the appearance of this piece of paper mean that the whole case is not a murder of love and vendetta, but a random murder?If it is a random killing, why are there connections between the dead?If not for the appearance of this note, what is it for?

If a serial killer is responsible for all this, if this psycho exists, it doesn't look like he intends to end it, judging by the words on this piece of paper.

Was the head of the female corpse taken away by him?What is it like to walk alone on the street with a dead head in broad daylight?Was Sui Yuliang's drowning part of his plan?Was He Chao's sensational death intentionally arranged by the murderer?

For the first time, Yuan Che began to have doubts about the investigation plan he had arranged, clues, and they needed more clues.

Yuan Che stood up, waved at Liu Lingling and Gu Huayu, and was about to leave the coffee shop. Although he was a little bit reluctant to be cool inside, it was not appropriate to discuss the case here.

Just as he walked to the door of the coffee shop, Yuan Che's cell phone rang suddenly, and the caller ID showed an unfamiliar cell phone number:

"Hello?" Ke Ran's voice came from the other end of the phone, and Yuan Che remembered that he hadn't saved the newcomer's phone number yet.

There was a trace of tension in Ke Ran's voice on the other end of the phone:

"Team leader, Forensic Doctor Ling said that there is something wrong with Lu Yirou's wound."
