Linzhou Municipal Bureau

The area of ​​the old villa at No. 12 Chunxiu Road is not particularly large.The main building is a three-story building, each floor is about one hundred and ten square meters. In the house built 100 years ago, several walls were designed with the most advanced floor-to-ceiling glass windows at that time, which made the lighting in the house very good.The front garden has not been taken care of for too long, except for two tall ginkgo trees that are just showing signs of decline, there are basically no plants that can survive the baptism of the entire scorching heat.However, it is big enough. The media who came to interview today were all arranged in a temporary pergola, and the space in the whole garden seemed to be quite plentiful.

The main guests at the ribbon-cutting ceremony of the Zhimo Foundation, besides Su Shanshan, were old Professor Dong Can.Dong Can was the chief doctor of the Mental Hygiene Department of the Sixth City Hospital where Su Zhimo went to see a doctor.Although the old man is in his seventies, he is still very strong, but his legs and feet are not flexible. Today he was helped by a young man.

The person who came was in his 30s and less than 35s. He was tall and tall, with a neat suit and a clean white shirt. Even the first button was buttoned meticulously in the outdoor temperature of [-] to [-] degrees. It can be seen that he is a rigorous person. .

Mr. Dong introduced to Su Shanshan and his party: "This one is one of my favorite students, Liu Ziqi. Ziqi, are you the vice president of the Third Academy now? I read the article he published last month. Yes, it's still very good, and the waves behind push the waves ahead."

Liu Ziqi smiled and nodded, and amidst the admiration of "young and promising" from the crowd, she leaned over slightly and said to the old gentleman, "Teacher, you are overwhelmed." That demeanor was steady and yet at the same time a trace of a favored student towards the teacher. naughty.

Following Su Shanshan's guidance, Liu Ziqi helped Mr. Dong into the hall on the first floor of the villa.There, the staff who guide the guests to sign in and take pictures, shuttle between the guests who are talking with wine glasses from time to time, and the whole hall with people coming and going is a peaceful scene.

After Mr. Dong took his seat, everyone naturally gathered together.The old man is worthy of being an authority in the field of mental illness, and he can be said to be full of peaches and plums in Linzhou.In fact, the Mental Hygiene Department of the Sixth Municipal Hospital he worked in was the predecessor of the Yuanwan Third Hospital.With the continuous improvement of the medical system, their department became independent later, and then merged with a small specialized hospital at that time. It was under the leadership of Mr. Dong that the cornerstone was laid on the vegetable field at that time.

According to the plan, the initial funds of the Zhimo Foundation all come from the rental income of the four villas, and the maximum annual scale is more than 2000 million. It's really not enough.Looking at the chatter and laughter of the people around the old man in the living room, one can know that there are many participants in this event, and half of the credit lies with Mr. Dong's face.

Just take this Vice President Liu as an example, while he was Mr. Dong's escort, he also came here as a representative of the Yuanwan Third Hospital.

"Ms. Susan, I haven't introduced myself to you alone."

Holding a goblet in one hand, Liu Ziqi walked slowly towards Su Shanshan who was explaining something to the staff. The champagne cocktail in the glass exuded a faint aroma.

Su Shanshan took one of the wine glasses, and in a very professional wine-tasting posture, she sniffed the aroma of the wine in the glass, and her smile spread with the aroma in the glass: "It's a pleasure to meet you. Dean Liu It is an honor for me to be here today.”

"To be honest, when I heard the news of the establishment of the foundation the day before yesterday, I was more moved than surprised. I admire your righteous deed very much."

"You are serious, it's just a matter of raising your hands. Doctors like Dean Liu who have been fighting on the front line for a long time are the most important strengths in this cause."

After a few pleasantries, they heard the staff member who was standing beside him yell softly to the person outside the door: "Xiaoman, come and help me!"

I saw that the little girl was trying to move a big flower pot that was a little bit in the way, and the mud in the flower pot seemed to be quite heavy.

"I'll do it." It seems that Dean Liu picked up a good opportunity to perform in front of the banquet host.He put down the wine glass in his hand, without saying a word, unbuttoned the delicate cuff buttons, and rolled up the sleeves of his snow-white shirt.When the well-trained forearm muscles easily lifted the large flower pot, they showed a toughness that did not match his elegant appearance.

"It's okay, it's a joke." Liu Ziqi took the wet towel handed over by the staff and wiped her hands, then continued to talk to Su Shanshan: "To be honest, I am also a lover of astrology. In my opinion, The scientific nature of astrology is far more rigorous than that of local Feng Shui."

Su Shanshan was slightly taken aback by Liu Ziqi's words, but what she didn't expect was that Liu Ziqi had read two of her astrological works!

"I'm just entertaining myself. I'm not good at it, so I'm laughing at it." Liu Ziqi suddenly lowered her voice, with a weird smile on her face, "I actually think that this place and this time are not suitable for hosting Such public activity."

Su Shanshan's heart skipped a beat.

Her smile must have froze for a moment, but she quickly adjusted her posture, and quietly put the wine glass she just took from Vice President Liu on the tray of a passing waiter. Then quietly picked up another glass of cocktail that looked exactly the same from the tray.

Su Shanshan picked up the wine glass and took two sips. She wondered if her mood had too much influence on people's sense of taste. This glass of champagne cocktail completely lost its proper aroma, but made people taste a bit bitter.

Liu Ziqi seemed to have noticed the abnormal expression on the hostess's face, and asked with concern: "Ms. Susan, are you okay? Does your face look a little bad?"

"Oh, I'm fine, maybe I just stood under the sun for a long time, it's good to cool down." Su Shanshan resisted the sudden heart palpitations, her face was still gentle as usual.

At this time, Mr. Dong's voice came from the hall, and the two of them listened carefully. It turned out that the old man was calling Liu Ziqi over, probably to introduce him to some guest.Seeing Liu Ziqi walking away, Su Shanshan seemed to be exhausted at last. Just as she was about to turn around, someone gave her an arm.

"Madam, are you okay?" It turned out to be the waiter just now, "The gentleman told me just now, let me help you to the upstairs room to rest."

"It's okay, I'll just go up by myself, thank you." Su Shanshan declined the waiter's help, and in the increasingly sharp tinnitus, she grabbed the handrail of the stairs and walked upstairs slowly.

The waiter downstairs stood there, watching Su Shanshan's unnatural back for a moment, until she disappeared around the corner of the stairs.

"Liu Ziqi, 38 years old, graduated from Linzhou First Medical University and has been working in Yuanwan Third Hospital since graduation. She specializes in the diagnosis and treatment of depression. She once served as the leader of the depression research group in Linzhou City. It is a non-profit organization fighting depression." One of the founders of the Hyacinth Spiritual Growth Mutual Aid Association. He was just promoted to the vice president of the Yuanwan Third Hospital in February this year. Moreover, he is also a diamond king!"

Li Yunbin in the office of the joint project team in the brigade, facing more than a dozen screens, quickly browsed the search results just output in the system, and at the same time summarized the key content into the headset.

With the transmission of electronic signals, all the people linked to the common terminal became more and more nervous.

"Single, depression expert, interested in astrology, keen on outdoor sports, 1.8 meters three... why do I feel that Liu Ziqi's whole body looks like our profile of the murderer?" The headset came out It was Fang Fang's voice.

Just as Li Yunbin was about to reply to Fang Fang, he felt his shoulders sink a little. It turned out that Ji Lian was reminding him of the search results displayed on one of the screens.

"Hey! Wait a minute! It turns out that after Sun Sifan dropped out of high school, he once participated in the 'Hyacinth Spiritual Growth Mutual Aid Association'!"

The last nerve of all members of the Xingkongtu serial murder task force was also tensed.

No. 12 Chunxiu Road, cheerful background music flows in every corner of the villa courtyard, and the spotlights that are lit up from time to time make this scene of toasting and drinking more vivid, as if the old house that is in the whirlpool of public opinion at this moment is full of rare Come alive.

The door to a room on the second floor was lightly closed.

The sound of music downstairs was faintly visible in the corridor, and the footsteps of leather shoes on the neglected old wooden floor were particularly obvious.

Listen, the visitor took a long, deep breath, and the twists and turns of the exhalation disturbed the few rays of golden sunlight that had squeezed into the corridor, and drove the dust jumping in the light and shadow to undulate like waves, just like him The excitement in my heart can hardly be concealed anymore.

The touch of the snow-white gloves and the metal doorknob was silent.The crack of the door was pushed open, revealing the back of a well-combed lady's head that was slumped to one side languidly on the sofa facing away from the door.

The visitor seemed very satisfied with the scene in front of him, the corner of his mouth curled up in an angle that seemed to have been practiced thousands of times, the other hand in his trouser pocket was tightened, and the shape of a dagger was more prominent on the outside of his thigh.

"Stop! Don't move!"

A loud shout seemed to drag that person's thoughts back from the end-time carnival.He stood there for a full two seconds before turning his head slowly.The dagger was drawn out as he turned around, but fell to the ground with a clang after seeing the opponent clearly.He narrowed his eyes, and the corners of his mouth pulled out an even more exaggerated arc.

"Ah, isn't this the whole police officer?"

The strange sound upstairs caused some people with keen hearing in the crowd downstairs to look up.

A guest who was having a good talk was interrupted by a man who broke in suddenly.Yu Jianhai showed his police ID to one of the guests, and said, "Mr. Liu Ziqi, we are from the Criminal Police Brigade of Linzhou City Bureau. The incident happened suddenly. Please help us evacuate everyone here immediately!"

Quan Yifeng raised his gun with both hands, and stared coldly at the "waiter" in front of him at the end of the corridor on the second floor.

"So it's you, Doctor Fan, President Fan."

The humility of the waiter was replaced by the calmness of the doctor, and he really is a veteran of the drama club with excellent acting skills.Fan Daoyang smiled, his eyes seemed to be staring intently at the opposite person, but more like staring at some kind of illusory existence.

"My dear, please forgive me for leaving you in this way."

The familiar opening words startled Fang Fang's goosebumps all over the head of the headset.

As Fan Daoyang said, he slowly untied the dark blue vest on his body.On both sides of the lining of the vest, a circle of one-inch-thick square object was sewn. A small black instrument was attached to the side of the object, and a bean-sized red light flickered rapidly on the instrument.

"My love for you is so deep. I am being tortured from the depths of my soul every day. What is the meaning of existence in this world that has failed you? Until I discovered the essence of life. I want to use these Dirty and meaningless life, come to offer you the most precious gift!"

During Fan Daoyang's indulgent speech, he held the shiny instrument and rubbed his thumb against the small bump on the instrument.

The moment Quan Yifeng realized his intentions, he also knew that everything was useless. He watched this lunatic go crazy with selflessness, and the only thing he could do was to shout into the headset with all his strength: "Quan—quick!" --retreat!"

"Honey! Today, this gift is finally going to be finished! This is not a parting! This is our reunion!!"

Suddenly, Fan Daoyang seemed to have finally discovered that there was another person present at the scene, and his sight finally returned to reality from the free space.

He turned his head and looked behind the door, and this time he really said to Quan Yifeng: "In order to commend her contribution to the completion of the entire work, I wanted to reward her with a wrist cut. Oh, what a pity. Officer Quan , you see, things in this world are always imperfect, aren't they?"

After speaking, he turned around and opened the door, and walked in.The moment he stepped into the room with his heels, he turned his head back and called out leisurely, "All police officers!"

Quan Yifeng's muscle-exploding pace was abruptly pulled by his own thoughts.Before listening to the murderer's final confession, how could Officer Quan be willing to leave like this!

Quan Yifeng felt that it might be a long, long time, and he would not be able to completely forget the expression on Fan Daoyang's face at this time.How can a living person imitate the shape of a skeleton?

"Officer Quan, didn't the altar of paper ashes in Zeng Jiankang's house burn very artistically?"

"boom--!"

The sound of the explosion resounded throughout the Yuanwan River.

Ji Lian in the project team stood up "shua!"He was sure he had just heard a knock on hell's door.
