Chi Lang's last words may be just a momentary feeling, but it really surprised Gu Xiaohui who was listening seriously. The answer to the mystery of "the real murderer is the protagonist's relatives/friends/lover" can be said to be the same as in movie novels. It’s no wonder that Gu Xiaohui made up a lot of content in the classic plot, and frightenedly used the elimination method to screen all the people present, and he was quietly relieved when he felt that no one fit the characteristics of a perverted murderer.Gu Xiaohui's fierce inner struggle is naturally unknown to others. The meeting has clarified the direction of the next step, which can be regarded as a slight progress. Hearing Fu Yunsheng shout: "Xiaobai, stay here for a while."

Bai Zizheng stayed as he said, and the others walked out of the conference room one after another.Bai Zizheng thought he had something to explain alone, but Fu Yun asked with concern, "Xiaobai, what happened this morning?" Because Bai Zizheng was rarely late, and the calls were vague, Due to professional sensitivity and superiors' concern for subordinates, Fu Yunsheng asked one more question.

Bai Zizheng didn't know how to answer, he was not good at talking about his family affairs during working hours, but after hesitating for a moment, he still told the truth to Fu Yunsheng, because he couldn't think of any other excuses.Fu Yunsheng let out an "ah" in surprise, and then had a conversation similar to last night. Fortunately, Bai Zirong's illness would not affect Bai Zizheng's work, so Fu Yunsheng was relieved to let him continue with the case.

Bai Zizheng picked up his things and was about to leave the meeting room, but when he opened the door, he saw Chi Lang waiting nearby, and he didn't know how much he had listened to the conversation in the room.Bai Zizheng passed by Chi Lang without squinting, and suddenly felt that the visitor was not kind, and what he heard in his ear was indeed the damned "Little Bai".

Bai Zizheng stopped and asked, "What are you doing?"

Chi Lang said: "I didn't intend to eavesdrop on your conversation with Fu Dui." He explained in a calm and unhurried manner, and his calm attitude even made people think that he had premeditated, and then asked, "Is your brother okay? "

Maybe it was because he hesitated to speak before the meeting, Bai Zizheng felt that he should have wanted to ask this question a long time ago, but he didn't have a suitable opportunity. As for the guess, it was probably based on the phone call he hung up hastily last night. It was during the call that he heard the noise of the doctor outside the building, so he deduced that he had gone to the hospital.Bai Zizheng really admires Chi Lang now. When he has the time to try to create a chance to strike up a conversation, it's better to think about the possible doubts in the case. He always feels that his cleverness is the same as being crooked. Even if he is not doing his job properly, he shouldn't be at this time, but He still maintained his due courtesy, and said lightly, "Thank you for your concern, it's okay."

Chi Lang said: "That's good." At this moment, Fu Yunsheng also came out of the meeting room, looked at the two of them and said, "What's wrong?"

Chi Lang said: "Captain Fu, sorry for your trouble, I need high-definition photos of the scene of the two abandoned corpses, the more detailed the better." For many months, the garbage dump and the vegetable market are open places, and the wind and sun are not conducive to the preservation of relevant evidence. It is of little significance to directly re-examine the scene.Chi Lang's specialty is trace identification, and "having traces to follow" is the key to his smooth work. The police usually take multi-angle shots of the scene as soon as they arrive to collect evidence, so that some easily damaged The traces are preserved, such as the original form of water stains and blood stains, etc., so that investigators can complete the reconstruction and restoration of the scene in the follow-up work.

Of course Fu Yunsheng understood this truth, so he quickly responded: "It's not difficult, the relevant information is here, I'll ask Han Yi to bring it to you." He called Han Yi who was talking to Jia Chensong, and then Chi Lang and Han Yi Yijia and Chensong went back to the identification center together.

Now that Chi Lang has left, Bai Zizheng naturally doesn't need to pay attention to him any more. He returns to his seat and turns on the computer. He retrieves the transcripts of the inquiries of Lu and Guo's parents, and finds that there is no detailed description of what the child was wearing when he disappeared. So they called Gu Xiaohui, who was looking around, together, and the two went to the homes of Lu Yicheng and Guo Xinyi to conduct a visit and investigation again.

It has been more than a month since the incident happened, and for the family who lost their beloved son, every day is probably like a year. Bai Zizheng knows that his arrival does not mean hope. When facing the Lu family's parents, it is inevitable that there will be a trace of hope. guilt.Lu Yicheng's mother's mental state has been poor since the discovery of the child's body. Recently, she can only rely on sleeping pills to barely fall asleep.The child's grandma also blames herself every day, wishing to die herself and not wanting anything to happen to her grandson.Bai Zizheng's visit brought Lu Yicheng's father, who had been on the run, back home. Although he didn't want to rub salt on the family's wounds, Bai Zizheng asked straightforwardly: "Do you still remember the clothes the child was wearing on the day he disappeared?" What kind of clothes are they?"

Lu Yicheng's father looked at the child's grandmother for help.On the day of the incident, Lu Yicheng hadn't woken up when the couple went to work. Lu Yicheng's father never knew what clothes were in his son's closet, and Lu's mother was in a coma, so he could only pin his hopes on the child's grandma. Can you provide any clues.Gu Xiaohui handed over a tissue to let the child's grandma wipe away tears, and heard the old man reply intermittently: "Clothes? It's probably the blue down jacket, the shiny one...the inside is the gray sweater, round Collared. The pants are jeans with a row of stars next to the pockets, and the shoes are the ones his dad bought, blue with some white stripes on them."

Bai Zizheng said, "Where's the brand of the clothes? Do you remember?"

Although Lu Yicheng's father was baffled by this question, he still answered truthfully: "Those shoes belong to Adidas. I just bought them for Cheng Cheng on New Year's Day." Eye sockets, and continued, "I bought that sweater the year before last. At that time, Cheng Cheng was wearing it too big, so I put it away first. I really can't remember the brand. I bought the pants and coat at a children's clothing store in the pedestrian street. It all happened at the beginning of this year. At this age, people grow up fast, and they have to buy clothes..."

Bai Zizheng said, "What's the name of that children's clothing store?"

Lu Yicheng's father said: "Call it 'Buka' or 'Bro', it should have the character 'Bu'."

Bai Zizheng continued: "Do you have any photos of these clothes?"

Lu Yicheng's father said: "...the photo? Let me look for it." He took out his mobile phone, and after two seconds of silence, he suddenly covered his face with his hand, and wept silently.Bai Zizheng saw that most of the photo albums on his phone were photos of Lu Yicheng, so he understood his pain as a father.Gu Xiaohui's mood also became heavy, but no amount of comfort would help, so he could only secretly grit his teeth and vowed to catch that insane murderer.I don't know how long it took, but Lu Yicheng's father finally calmed down, and when he spoke again, his voice became a little hoarse: "I... I took a few pictures of him before..." As he spoke, he turned the phone slowly. Pushed over.The photo shows a ten-year-old boy smiling brightly, holding a brand new Transformers toy.Bai Zizheng took this photo with his mobile phone, and then got up to bid farewell to Lu Yicheng's family.

Lu Yicheng's father sent the two of them to the door, opened his mouth, but didn't know what to say.

Bai Zizheng was silent for a moment, and finally said: "Mr. Lu, don't worry, the province has sent experts to assist us, and we will definitely catch the murderer who killed Lu Yicheng."

Lu Yicheng's father said: "Thank you, Officer Bai."

Bai Zizheng said: "You don't need to give it away." After speaking, he went downstairs with Gu Xiaohui.

Gu Xiaohui didn't sigh with relief until he got into the car. The atmosphere in the Lu family was too gloomy. Even if he was naturally optimistic, he couldn't treat a tragedy as a comedy. He just wanted to express his determination to never give up with Bai Zizheng. But suddenly found that his little white brother's mood was not quite right.Bai Zizheng was uncharacteristically silent, but it was different from his usual reticence.Gu Xiaohui blocked his ambition to exit, and said cautiously: "...Brother Bai?"

Bai Zizheng put on his seat belt and asked, "What's wrong?"

Gu Xiaohui let out an "uh" and quickly said, "It's nothing."

The conversation that was almost exactly the same as in the morning made Bai Zizheng think of Chi Lang again, and this feeling made him inexplicably agitated.He didn't know why he mentioned Chi Lang to Lu Yicheng's father just now, his almost subconscious behavior was obviously trying to avoid something, maybe at a certain moment he regarded Chi Lang's arrival as some kind of hope, and then took this kind of The hope was passed on to Lu Yicheng's father. In fact, they are indeed taking the next step according to Chi Lang's plan.But when you think about it carefully, Chi Lang is actually very inexplicable. Bai Zizheng can't find the source of that subtle sense of trust at all, not to mention that he uses the frankness of his sexual orientation to test his attitude, which is simply confusing. People can't laugh or cry.

It was rare for Bai Zizheng to be caught in a dilemma about a certain person.

Fortunately, he quickly shelved this non-work-related idea.Because the shopping mall on the pedestrian street is not far from Lu's house, Bai Zizheng decided to go to the children's clothing store with "cloth" in its name first.It was the noon time on weekdays, and the pedestrian traffic on the pedestrian street was not very large. Bai Zizheng walked along the street for a certain distance, and easily found the children's clothing store named "Cabulo".A string of wind chimes is hung on the handrail of the gate, which makes a crisp sound as the guests push the door.The shopping guide came out when she heard the voice, and asked with a smile: "What do you two want to see?"

Bai Zizheng showed the ID card, indicating that there was a situation that required the clothing store to cooperate with the investigation.The shopping guide lady obviously didn't know how to deal with it, so she quickly called the manager who was resting.Bai Zizheng asked the manager to carefully identify Lu Yicheng's clothes in the photo, and soon found the corresponding jeans and jacket. Both clothes are new this winter, and their sales are also very good.Gu Xiaohui took photos of the two clothes to collect evidence, and then the two went to Guo Xinyi's home to investigate together.

The atmosphere of the Guo family is also depressing.The child's grandma was admitted to the hospital because of too much stimulation, and Guo Xinyi's mother also quarreled with her husband who suggested that her daughter go out to buy drinks alone that day.Bai Zizheng briefly explained the reason for his visit, and Guo Xinyi's mother finally maintained her due calm under the comfort of her sister, recalling: "That day Xinyi was wearing a Lolita-style skirt, and I matched her with white stockings and Brown round-toed shoes, and a necklace for her."

Gu Xiaohui, who was in charge of recording, asked in confusion: "...Lolita? Is it the brand of the dress?"

Guo Xinyi's mother said: "No...it's a style of clothing...it's a small dress. My sister owns a shop like this, and she likes to make clothes for Xinyi...that dress was given to Xinyi as a birthday present Yes, I..."

Waiting by the side is Guo Xinyi's aunt, who is also the "sister" in Guo Xinyi's mother's mouth. Hearing this, she explained: "It's like this. I opened a physical store that sells western clothes, and a new style was released last November. Xinyi's birthday is coming, so I made a set according to her size. Xinyi's New Year's coat is also taken from my store, and the shape is designed by the designer in my store. Made a separate set with Xinyi's size."

Aunt Guo Xinyi's words undoubtedly revealed a very important clue. The unique design of this suit is likely to be the key to solving the case.When Guo Xinyi reported her disappearance before, the police only knew that the child was wearing a brown coat and a cotton printed skirt. Now the focus of the investigation has shifted to the clothes themselves. As long as the police can determine the whereabouts of these clothes, it is very likely that they will follow the clues to find the children who killed the two. The real murderer of the child.After days of gloom, there was finally a ray of hope, and Bai Zizheng hurriedly said, "Do you have any photos of these clothes?"

Guo Xinyi's mother said: "I took a few pictures with a digital camera..." and then handed over the memory card of the digital camera to the two.

This discovery made Bai Zizheng feel excited, and immediately drove back to the police station after bidding farewell to Guo Xinyi's mother.On the way, Gu Xiaohui used a laptop to read the contents of the memory card, looked at the girl dressed like a little princess in the photo, and sighed: "Brother Bai, you said that the dress is so exaggerated, how could there be no witnesses. "Speaking and turning the screen around.

Bai Zizheng glanced at Gu Xiaohui's screen during the red light, and found that the arc supporting the skirt was indeed very exaggerated.The two who were busy working all day naturally didn't know that there were panniers in terms of clothes, so they could only guess that it was because of the darkness of the night.When the two of them returned to the bureau, Fang Lin and Wen Xin, who didn't know when to come back, were going to go out again.Gu Xiaohui stopped them and asked one more question, Fang Lin said: "There has been news from Liu Rong, and we can arrest people."
