"Let's stop here today, and I'll come to see you next week." Su returned to his notebook, raised his eyes, and felt that the answer he got from Song Rongjiang was almost done.

Su Hui ended the conversation, and then he needed to go to other places to collect information.

He was not in a hurry to go home, but got off the roller coaster from the prison. According to the recorded address, he first went to Song Rongjiang's home and met Song Rongjiang's seriously ill mother.

In the white corridor outside the house, "murderer" was written all over with red paint, and the paint was written layer after layer, and at first someone brushed it off with white paint.In the end, the person who splashed the paint became numb, and the person who painted the wall white also became numb.

The scarlet letters stayed like this, and gradually began to mottle.

Su Hui knocked on the door for a long time before someone came to open the door. Song Rongjiang's mother was bedridden and her clothes were disheveled. She had problems eating and drinking every day.She didn't have time to take care of that son, and she cried frequently when she mentioned him.

Then Su Hui met the neighbors near Song Rongjiang's house, and then went to find Song Rongjiang's former head teacher.

He kept asking them what kind of person Song Rongjiang was and what he had experienced in life.

Then he became more and more sure that there was a girl in Song Rongjiang's life.

The girl is older than Song Rongjiang.

During the time when she met Song Rongjiang, she had short hair, a thin body, and a flat chest. She was taller than boys of the same age. very unique.

She doesn't speak often, but likes poetry and reading.

She has sympathy for the weak, and will take the initiative to approach and talk to taciturn people.

She would listen to the stories of the underdog and feel in her subconscious as a redeemer.But she is always tired of this situation, and may be ridiculed by the Virgin.

Song Rongjiang mistook her listening for love.

What unpleasant things happened to them, but in the end they cheated and broke up.

Regarding this girl, some interviewees said they couldn't remember clearly, and some said they didn't know.

In the end, Su came back to the book rental shop that had been converted into a coffee shop.

Fortunately, although the decoration and use of the place have changed, the owner has not.

The boss still remembered Song Rongjiang, and took the initiative to mention to Su Hui that Song Rongjiang was arrested for murder this year. The boss was very sorry.

Su Hui chatted with him for a while, and then asked about the girl.

The boss recalled: "I remembered that when Song Rongjiang was in junior high school, there was a girl who was very close to him. That girl was a super member of our place. She liked to read books very much. She seemed to be called...Tao Li."

The timing, the description, it all sounded right on, they had a lot of time to spend together and shared hobbies.

Su Hui felt that he had found a glimmer of hope in the darkness: "Do you have her phone number, or her home address?"

The boss said: "This happened many years ago. Her mobile phone number was changed later, but I remember that super members have registered addresses."

While talking, the boss took out several thick stacks of information books from under the table, and Su Hui started to search together while coughing.

After searching for a while, the boss breathed a sigh of relief: "I found her address. I don't know if she has moved. You can go there and try your luck."

Su Hui copied the address on a sticky note and looked at the time. It was already past 08:30 in the evening. Holding the scepter and holding the sticky note, he still decided to pay a visit.

Song Rongjiang's execution was less than ten days away, and the time left for him was running out, and he hadn't solved the riddle yet.

The location where Su Hui lived was already far from the city center, and the place where Tao Li lived was even further away. It was a rather large old building area, which had been said to be demolished, but had not yet been remodeled.

Su Hui took a taxi, but the driver found the wrong way. After wandering around in the alley for a while, he stopped in front of an old building, which didn't even have a community.

Su Hui went upstairs according to the address. The building had an outdated double-layer anti-theft door. He knocked on the door, and a woman in her 30s opened the door.It was a clean, white and thin woman, although Su Hui could only see the outline clearly.But the moment he saw her, Su Hui was sure that she should be the origin of Song Rongjiang's murder.

Because the features of her and those victims were too close.

The characteristics presented by the multiple victims coincidentally reflect the woman in front of her. This is the compensatory killing that serial killers often appear in.

It was this woman that Song Rongjiang killed repeatedly and wanted to keep.

Now this woman has grown up, is getting older, and no longer fits his memory, so his target has changed to a younger woman.

Song Rongjiang wanted to reproduce everything that had happened, which was the source of his psychological distortion.

"Who are you looking for?" the woman asked in a low voice.

"Is this Tao Li? My name is Su Hui. I'm a teacher at Huadu Police Academy and a police officer." Su Hui politely showed his police certificate.

"You...what do you want from me?" The woman stretched out her hand to brush her hair by her ears.

"I want to ask, do you know about the murder of a taxi driver in Huadu?" Su Hui asked, paying attention to the woman's expression.

Tao Li was visibly nervous.

Su Hui continued to ask: "Do you know a man named Song Rongjiang?"

In an instant, the woman's face turned pale, her eyes were full of fear, she shook her head hastily, eager to deny: "No...no..."

A man's voice came from the back room: "It's so late, who is it?"

"It's an insurance seller..." the woman said, hurriedly going to close the door.

Su Hui stretched out his hand to stop her from closing the door. The woman's eyes were full of pleading: "He is going to die... Please let me go, I don't want to hear this name anymore..."

Su replied: "But Pei Weiwei hasn't found it yet."

"I don't know, these things have nothing to do with me." Tao Li said in a low voice. At this time, the cry of a baby came from the room, and then came the man's complaint.The woman turned her head to look at it, her expression was about to cry.

What happened to Song Rongjiang was like a nightmare that entangled her, making her feel stuck in her throat all the time.

Su Hui knew that this conversation could not be carried on tonight, so he seized the time to slip over a business card of his own: "I know, thinking about him may make you feel uncomfortable, but if you can answer some of my questions, maybe It will help to find Pei Weiwei..."

The answers to what they have said, places they have been to, and things they have done may lie in the scattered past.

The woman didn't reach out to pick it up, and the business card fell to the ground. She gave him one last look, and closed the door anyway.

Before coming, Su Hui was ready to waste his words, but he never thought that everything would end so quickly.

Obviously, Tao Li also realized that the victims were similar to her.Now that she has a family and children, she doesn't want to have anything to do with that pervert.

Tao Li's fear and fear Su Hui understood very well, and felt that it was justifiable.

He went downstairs, and the long street was completely dark, and the taxi that had come had already left.

Su Hui sighed softly and walked out of the alleyway.

It seemed that there was endless darkness outside, and it was about to swallow his thin and thin figure.His eyesight was poor, and the buildings in the distance looked hazy in the night, almost identically unrecognizable.

There was a faint thunder in the sky, and it was about to rain.

For a moment, Su Hui was surrounded by a strong sense of frustration. Fortunately, while he isolated those positive emotions, it was difficult for the negative emotions to affect him more deeply, and that frustration quickly disappeared.

Find a missing girl in a bustling city with a population of tens of millions.

The police have invested a lot of manpower, but nothing has been achieved.

The same is true for those ordinary people who are still looking for Pei Weiwei, they cannot get close to the truth.

Su Hui felt like a helpless warrior who might face a war that he could not win.

At first, he just felt that he shouldn't just sit on the sidelines, and promised Bureau Tan to try it out, but all the operations were much more difficult than he imagined.

He didn't know what he was looking for, what to prove.

He told himself that Pei Weiwei should have died a hundred days ago.

What he is looking for may be just a little hope, maybe just a dead bone.

Su Hui leaned on his scepter and walked in the dark. He walked around for a while, his legs were already sore, and then he realized that he must have lost his way.

He had poor eyesight, and these inconveniences were magnified in the darkness.

Those dark alleyways are like a maze, which looks the same everywhere and never ends.

The lights that were lit in the distance looked like fireflies, but the surrounding area was extremely quiet, and there was not even a single person.

He could feel that the whole world was not very friendly.

To make matters worse, it began to rain lightly, and it gradually became heavier, and his bangs were soon soaked.

Su Hui picked up his mobile phone and started to take a taxi. After a few minutes, a driver took the order and asked him where he was, but he was already stuck in those alleyways and couldn't tell where he was.

The driver quickly hung up his phone impatiently and canceled the order.

He took a taxi for a few more minutes, and even doubled the price, but no one cared.

Su thought about booking a car, and then checked it out. It showed that it was beyond the normal business hours and needed to be booked in advance.

Su Hui reluctantly closed the taxi-hailing app, hid under a small eaves, rummaged through the phone's address book, thinking about his friends, colleagues, and even those students.

But... It seems that they shouldn't trouble others on such a rainy night.

His chest was so stuffy that it felt like a stone had been pressed on him. Su Hui coughed a few times, but the cough could not be stopped. He covered his mouth and bent down uncontrollably.

The rain was getting heavier and heavier, and it was so heavy that it was difficult to move. If it was delayed any longer, I didn't know what time it would be.

Just as Su Hui was thinking about it, the phone rang suddenly.

Su Hui opened WeChat, and someone added him as a friend. The other party's screen name was Weichi, and his avatar was a snow-white Su Mu. He wrote three words for verification: "Lu Junchi".
