Butterfly Wishes Series

Tang Qing had already smelled the restless factor wandering in the air before entering the bar street.Looking up at the sky, it should be before Shen Shi, but there are noisy voices coming from the direction of Bar Street. For the night street that usually only wakes up in the evening, this itself is an abnormal signal.

Several small gray figures flashed in the shadow of the green belt beside the road, like mist and smoke, they were low-level monsters called Yingmei, low-level and fragile, if they stayed in the midday sun for half an hour Hours will dissipate their souls, so they usually only appear in the dark crevices of the city after night falls.But at this moment, they are uncharacteristically moving under the sunlight of day.

Tang Qing stretched out his hand, and a gray shadow was caught by an irresistible force as it passed by him, making a "squeak" sound like a mouse calling, he pinched its slender body with his thumb and index finger, and exerted a little force. The lowly monsters didn't even have time to scream, and disappeared without a trace like real smoke.Tang Qing frowned, and the strong smell of blood came through the last vitality of Death Shadow Charm. He took out his handkerchief to wipe his hands, and then strode towards the "demon".

"Yao" is a brick house dressed as a wooden house, which is a special one disguised as ordinary. It is located on the northeast side of the north-south street of Bar Street in S City. The house number registered in the road system is "113 Lishui Street". This bar includes two floors above and below ground. It opens at [-]:[-] pm every day. From [-]:[-] am to [-]:[-] am, only the upper floor facing the street is open. It provides some basic drinks, JAZZ blues, it is a quiet bar, after [-]:[-] am until [-]:[-] am , with an open basement for some thrill-seeking guests and some other special guests.

Tang Qing pushed open the door of "Demon", and the clay wind chime hanging at the door gave out a series of short and cheerful rhythms because of his movements, which made several people in the store look up at him at the same moment.Trapped in the bar counter with a sad face, his eyes lit up instantly when he saw Tang Qing's figure.

"Boss, our boss is here." He stammered and waved to Tang Qing, "Boss, these gentlemen are looking for you."

Tang Qing's eyes swept over the three people standing in front of the bar, two in civilian clothes, one in uniform, and three policemen.

He gestured to the clerk: "Xiao Hou, you go downstairs." Then he dragged a chair away, "Gentlemen, this way please."

◇

Standing beside the yellow cordon, Ma Jian raised his head and chest, full of air. After three years in the anti-pornography team, he was finally officially transferred to the Fourth Squadron of the Criminal Police Brigade of Tianshui District, S City from today.

There is an old saying that goes well, a good man would rather die in battle, shrouded in horse leather, than be mediocre and die of old age and ease!

Ma Jian's dream and Ma Jian's ambition will start from today.He raised his head and looked into the distance. In the distance, there are many tall buildings, like a forest of steel reinforcements. How many poisonous snakes and beasts therein will one day be caught in the hands of the horse sword.His chest is filled with boundless enthusiasm, his eyes are bright, and he is majestic and strong. When he is so heroic and surging, there are always people who don't know how to praise him.

"Excuse me." A lazy voice sounded, followed by something that lightly bumped Ma Jian's shoulder.

Ma Jian looked down, was stunned, and then screamed "Wow": "Monster!" He took a few big steps back and almost staggered and fell to the ground.

In front of him was a "thing" in human form.Where the head should be, there is a mess of things on it. If you look closely, there are fish bones, chicken bones, duck bones, kelp, mop cloth, etc., and there is a black, green, and purple. , a colorful face, a pair of slender eyes curved up with a smile, and a mouth that is also curved down to represent a smile, but the smile is ferocious...

"No, it's not a monster." The "thing" shook its long body and said while dropping garbage, "Look, I just fell off my bike and dislocated both hands." Then, shaking his arms, "Can you help me put my hand back?"

Ma Jian looked at the other party suspiciously for a while, from head to toe, from chicken, duck, fish bones and kelp cloth to the shadow on the ground...

"Oh, there's a shadow." Only then did he finally breathe a sigh of relief, convinced of his human identity, and then suddenly thought of himself as a criminal policeman, who was frightened by strange power and chaos just now, and couldn't help burning his face.

"Sir, our police are handling the case. If you have nothing to do, don't come here to obstruct your official duties. You should go to the hospital now instead of asking us for help."

"Smiling" shook his body: "Look, I can't go to the hospital like this."

Ma Jian thought, yes, he dislocated his hands, and the nearest hospital is a few kilometers away, how can he get there?But I am standing guard here, and no one else is allowed to enter. If I help someone connect their arms without authorization, is it considered a violation of organizational discipline?

"Smiling" Seeing that Ma Jian didn't answer, he shook and said, "Why don't you ask Yu Xiaole to pick it up for me, he will definitely agree."

Yu Xiaole is a forensic doctor of the Fourth Squadron of the Criminal Police Brigade in Tianshui District. He is eccentric, serious and a typical weirdo.Ma Jian met him once when he was in the anti-pornography team. He happened to go to the forensic team on business that day. He wanted to say hello to the "famous" forensic doctor Yu, but he bumped into Yu Xiaole who was eating steak and watching an autopsy video. , Hearing Ma Jian's greeting, Yu forensic doctor turned his head slowly in the extremely thick darkness under the background of the body parts displayed on the 46-inch LCD TV, with gloomy eyes and blood on the corners of his mouth, which made Ma Jian goosebumps all over his body in fright , didn't even bother to say "goodbye", and even scrambled and escaped from the forensic room, and never dared to enter it again.Until now, when Ma Jian heard the word Yu Xiaole, he couldn't help rubbing his arms.

"Is it cold?" "Smiley" asked with a smile.

"Hey, it's cold." Ma Jian replied obediently while rubbing his arms, "I don't know why, but I'm just afraid of this person. Don't laugh at me for being superstitious. I heard from the seniors in the team that there are three monsters in the fourth squadron that you can't mess with. The first monster is "Yan Wang Xiao", the second monster is "Ghost Seeing Sorrow", and the third monster is "Calculation of Dead Grass", so Yu Xiaole is the second monster."

"So I'm only in second place." A thoughtful voice sounded behind him, as if a pot of cold water was poured over his head in the twelfth lunar month, cooling Ma Jian's heart.

Turning around tremblingly, Ma Jian greeted people weakly: "Morning, Yu the forensic doctor." He completely forgot that it was already afternoon.

Standing behind Ma Jian was Yu Xiaole.

This is a young man who looks too weak.Pale to almost transparent skin, short black hair, but a row of thick bangs covering the entire forehead, big eyes, but a pair of black-rimmed old-fashioned glasses cover most of the face, slender legs, slender arms, There is also a pair of sharp-boned hands. The combination of the above always makes people unconsciously think of the perverted killer in the movie.

Yu Xiaole waved with a "smile" and said, "Come here."

"Smiling" sprinted over like a nimble little animal, leaning over to show him his arms.Yu Xiaole touched his bones, pulled and sent a scream, one was healed, pulled and sent a scream, the other arm was also healed.

"Xiao Mi Mi" was tearful, and clapped his hands happily: "Ooooh, Xiaole, you are really good!" Excitedly, he spread his wings like a big roc, put it down, followed the fairy to guide the way, put it down again, followed the poisonous snake, and then put it down again, "Ooooh , It's really all right! I'll treat you to dinner tonight, see you later!" After finishing speaking, "Hula La" blew away like a gust of wind.

Ma Jian was dumbfounded, and it took him a long time to remember why he was rushed into the blockade!

"You stand for me..." Before he finished shouting, a cold hand was placed on his shoulder.Ma Jian was in a cold sweat, and turned his head with difficulty: "Yu...Yu the forensic doctor?"

Yu Xiaole was unpredictable, with a sinister smile on the corner of his mouth: "Do you know who that is?" As he spoke, he leaned close to Ma Jian's ear, and the icy breath sprayed on Ma Jian's ear, making him shiver for a while. "Well, he is the Chief Monster of the Fourth Squadron of the Criminal Police Brigade in the Tianshui District of this city "Yan Wang Xiao" Zheng Mei, Zheng Squadron Leader."

Ma Jian's two legs went limp on the spot...

◇

"If you see this person again, remember to call us immediately, be careful, don't startle the snake, you know?"

"Okay, don't worry, everyone, I will also tell the clerks in our store to pay more attention, and immediately notify the police as soon as there is news, and the three of you will go." Tang Qing politely greeted the three with the usual respectful attitude of ordinary people. A policeman sent him out the door.It wasn't until seeing the backs of several people disappearing into the distance that I closed the door. After thinking for a while, I reached out and flipped the wooden sign on the door to "Closed Business".

"Boss..." Xiao Hou poked out half of his head from the stairs in the basement, his monkey-like round eyes rolled "bone-like", and he looked a bit timid.

"It's okay." Tang Qing said, "I just wanted to take a break, so I won't do business today. By the way, how are you?"

Xiao Hou's eyes flickered for a moment, his face turned red, and he muttered, "No... I'm fine... Thank you boss..."

"let me see."

"No...no need...boss, I..."

Tang Qing came over, stretched out his hand, ignored Xiaohou's weak protest, grabbed his hair, and lifted it lightly.Immediately emerging from the darkness was Xiao Hou's head, with short light chestnut hair, a pointed chin, and a pair of round eyes, followed by a body that only reached a little below the shoulders, and then... It was a piece of brown dead wood.

"Sure enough," Tang Qing raised an eyebrow, "The policeman's aura is too strong, and it's still too reluctant for your cultivation level."

Xiaohou lowered his head sadly, feeling extremely ashamed of his uselessness.

Tang Qing smiled: "You are allowed to leave today, you go back to rest, and come back to work when you can recover your human form. I will find someone else to take your class recently."

"Boss, I..." Xiaohou anxiously wanted to say something else, but after glancing at Tang Qing, he didn't dare to continue.Nodding his head, he disappeared into the shadows dejectedly.

Tang Qing is the only one left in the two-story building.

In fact, it should be said that there is currently no one left in this bar called "Demon", because Tang Qing is a demon, a mantid with thousands of years of practice, and a mantid who lives alone in S City. On top of Pianle, a demon who lives a free life among the crowd.

If you think about it now, Tang Qing's faded memory probably can't remember the year he was born or the specific time when he came to S City. Instead, but he has stayed here, in each age, with a different identity, repeating life, old age, sickness and death in the eyes of outsiders.He didn't know why he didn't want to leave, maybe it was because he was used to it, maybe someone told him in the dark that he had a reason to stay here.Even Tang Qing sometimes felt that it seemed like an indescribable waiting.As for what he was waiting for, he didn't know.

Of course, he is not the only demon living in this city, but he is undoubtedly the most powerful and the first one to come.Some of the old monsters in the past have died and turned into dust-Tang Qing once saw how a mirror monster that sucked the undead was sealed by a human Taoist priest, and then his soul was scattered. Lovers, exhausted their whole life of cultivation, but in the end they were completely forgotten, their hearts were dead and their lights were dry, and they killed themselves; some left and never came back, only Tang Qing, as if integrated into the land of S City, always Here, watch the changes around you.

Tang Qing glanced at the photo on the table. It was a man who looked no older than 30 years old, with ordinary looks and weak eyes.This person was somehow involved in the murder that happened in the back alley of Bar Street early this morning, and yesterday, he was a guest of "Yao".

This is a new face.Tang Qing remembered that he came alone, and after ordering a few bottles of beer, he sat alone in the corner and drank non-stop.Maybe there is something on his mind, but in this age, how many people have nothing on their minds?

There were several wet wine glasses on the bar counter. Xiao Hou was arrested for questioning after he wiped the glasses halfway. Tang Qing skillfully picked up the cloth towel beside him and began to wipe them. His knuckle fingers moved on the transparent carved glass, Beautiful posture.

In fact, this is something that can be done with a little magic, but Tang Qing always prefers to spend more time, not only wiping cups, sweeping the floor or other things, he does it like ordinary people.Probably in a hurry.Tang Qing thought, he is too free, the time is so, so long for him!

In the dimly lit bar with yellow lights, Tang Qing stood alone behind the bar counter and wiped the cups quietly, one by one, one after another...

"Sorry to bother you." A lazy voice broke in suddenly, and with the cheerful sound of the wind chime hanging on the wooden door, someone broke into the "demon" without the sign hanging on the door.

Like the powerful power of a sudden thunder and lightning strike, all the light bulbs on Tang Qing's head made a loud "pong" sound at the same time at that moment, and were blown to pieces together after huge sparks burst out.The glass slag all over the sky radiated in all directions, and hit the floor of the tables and chairs, making a very threatening "cracking" sound, and then, thick darkness invaded the entire "demon".

Tang Qing looked at the door, and the cup in his hand slipped silently from his hand and fell to the ground. After a second "pong" sound, he rolled away.

"Why is it him! ? 』Tang Qing's blood-red eyes flickered in the dark.

◇

Zheng Mei covered the top of her head, hearing the "crackling" sound finally stopped, just shaking her hair, crawled out from under a table near the door, muttering "fortunately, fortunately", thankful that she reacted quickly enough.

It was already dusk, and most of the bars were designed to be ambiguous for the sake of atmosphere. Now that there is no light, even the five fingers can hardly be seen.Zheng Mei supported the table and fumbled around: "Boss, where is the window, I can't see anything, ouch!"

Tang Qing looked coldly at the people close at hand in the dark.His messy hair was still covered with garbage, and his face was so filthy that it was almost impossible to make out its features, but it was a face he never forgot.

A man who was damned 20 years ago!

A bloodthirsty light flashed in Tang Qing's eyes, and his hostility was about to come out, and a sharp blade stretched out from the joints of his hands unconsciously, staying only a few inches in front of Zheng Mei.His "demon sickle" cuts gold and iron like chopping vegetables and cutting tofu. If someone bumps into it, he will be torn to pieces in an instant. Tang Qing doesn't believe that person can't see it, but that person is really rubbing around in the dark Then they got together, three inches, two inches, one inch...

Tang Qing took a few steps back in an instant, walked to the window, and pulled up the window cover.The skylight from outside shone in, and the inside of the bar was instantly brightened.

Zheng Mei let out a sigh and said with a smile: "Oh, I'm so sorry, I'm always unlucky, I don't know why today is especially unlucky." He pointed to the top, "It actually caused the light bulbs in your store to blow up." He said He turned his eyes to the man standing by the window, was taken aback for a moment, and said "Hey", "Have we met somewhere?"

Tang Qing's eyes flickered for a moment, and he said lightly: "Probably not. Most of the bulbs will blow up because of the short circuit of the wires, which has nothing to do with you. Also, our store is closed today, so you can come back tomorrow."

His attitude was indifferent, but Zheng Mei sat down at the bar alone: ​​"Don't worry, I'm not a guest, I'm a policeman, and I'm here to look for you!" He said, randomly took out a piece of ID from his pocket and shook it "Look, I didn't lie to you. My name is Zheng Mei. You can call me Police Officer Zheng." When he spoke, his eyes were crooked, and when he smiled, he looked like a fox.

"About that murder?" Tang Qing slowly walked back to the bar, "What do you want to drink?"

"Oh, let's have a glass of the best soda."

"Soda?"

"I don't drink when I'm on a case, so just give me the best soda you can get."

Tang Qing picked up the glass bottle and poured soda into the glass.The clear and transparent liquid with bubbles has a blood-red color under the setting sun, and the light and shadow rise magnificently, with a bit of sly beauty.

"Officer Zheng, please." The water glass was firmly handed to him, but it was not placed on the table.Zheng Mei was stunned for a moment, and just now he came to his senses, and hastily stretched out his hand to pick it up.I don't know who was careless, the water glass slipped away between the touch of fingers and fell down.There were debris on the ground and water on the ground, glass slag splashed, Zheng Mei subconsciously withdrew his hand, but Tang Qing grabbed his wrist somehow, unable to move.The feeling of tingling and slight itching came at the same time, and he frowned slightly.

The glass shards made tiny cuts in the hands of the two of them almost at the same time, and dark red blood swam out from the palms and wrists of the two of them respectively.

Tang Qing seemed to be belatedly aware of what happened, and hurriedly let go of his hand in a panic: "Yes, I'm sorry, my hands slipped for a while, I'll go find the potion right away."

Zheng Mei waved his hand, and took out a row of OK bandages from his pocket. He pasted his wound and raised his hand: "Do you want to?" Before Tang Qing could answer, he had already Also posted for him, "You can't compare with me in this kind of thing."

Tang Qing looked at the OK bandage on his wrist, feeling overwhelmed with doubts in his heart, but remained calm on his face.

The person in front of him should have died a long time ago, but he appeared in front of him ostentatiously at this moment, and he has no memory of the past. Moreover, he has blood, body temperature and heartbeat.Tang Qing didn't understand, how could a person who died under his hands 20 years ago linger and reappear?

Yes, 20 years ago, Tang Qing once ate the soul of a child. If that child grows up, it should look like the person in front of him.Is it resurrection or a puppet spell?But what kind of spell to enslave the dead can make a dead person maintain the physical characteristics of a living person for 20 years, let alone grow up like a normal person?

"Hey, do you wear contact lenses?"

"What?" Tang Qing asked subconsciously.

Zheng Mei looked at him with her chin: "Your eyes are wine red, very special, are you wearing contact lenses?"

Tang Qing was startled, and turned his head away, only to see his reddish eyes reflected in the glass mirror next to the bar. He was so flustered that he leaked his evil spirit without paying attention.He blinked, and when he turned around, there were already a pair of pale brown eyes.

"No, it's related to the light." Tang Qing replied, "What does Police Officer Zheng want to ask? Three colleagues have come to ask just now, and I still have their contact numbers here."

Zheng Mei spread his hands: "Of course what they asked is also important, but I still have some questions I want to ask."

Tang Qing put three spherical candles on the bar, poured a glass of water himself, moved a chair and sat down, settled down and said, "Excuse me."

"How long have you been running this bar?"

It is customary to start with a commonplace, and the three police officers just asked the question. When Zheng Mei asked, Tang Qing couldn't help but change the answer: "300 years." It's just that it used to be called a winery instead of a bar.

Zheng Mei blinked her eyes: "48, the [-]th year of Emperor Kangxi of the Qing Dynasty. This is a century-old shop." After a pause, he smiled again, "You really live a long life."

Tang Qing raised the corners of his lips slightly: "It's easy to say. Believe it or not, I'm actually a demon?"

Zheng Mei laughed, "I'm still a celestial master! How can you be as virtuous as my juniors?"

Tang Qing was slightly puzzled: "Let the junior say that he is a demon?"

"That's not true. He said that his boyfriend is a ghost, and he also said that a friend is a celestial master."

Tang Qing filtered the list in his mind. There were indeed a few people who settled the ghosts in S City a few years ago, but ghosts and demons were not involved and were not under his jurisdiction. He had never met the other party face to face, and the other party seemed to I don't want to have anything to do with my group.But the world is small after all, if you go around in circles and turn around, you will still encounter things if you don't pay attention.If the person in front of him is alive, does it have anything to do with that group of people?

Zheng Mei took out his notebook and scribbled: "I'm not kidding, how much does Boss Tang know about this murder case?"

"Knowing that someone died in the back alley, it was a terrible death. An eyewitness saw the suspect. The suspect drank in our store yesterday, but it was the first time he came, so he didn't pay much attention." Tang Qing raised his chin, Pointing to the bar, "The police officer who came first left a photo of him and asked us to pay more attention in the store."

Zheng Mei looked at the book, as if casually said: "It's a miserable death, don't you know what a terrible death is?"

Tang Qing shook his head. He really didn t care about this matter, and several police officers didn t tell them.Anyway, he is just a dead person, and for the demon, it is not worth paying more attention to.

Zheng Mei scratched the neck here with a black pen: "The body is dismembered, only the head remains, nothing else is left."

Divide the corpse?

Tang Qing pretended to be flustered: "Too...too cruel! What about the other body parts?"

"Still looking." Zheng Mei leisurely took a sip of soda, "You don't know, there was blood all over the place, and Xiao Le suspects that it's the corpse that was sorted in the backyard of your bar street."

Tang Qing's face changed slightly, showing an expression of disgust.For thousands of years, people have always said that monsters are cruel and addicted to eating people. In fact, how do you know that once people go crazy, they are more than ten thousand times more terrifying than monsters!

"But I think we, the police, are doing nothing."

"Officer Zheng means..."

"It's not so much that the murderer took the body parts to other places and discarded them," Zheng Mei took a breath and whispered, "I think those body parts were probably disposed of by the murderer."

"Dealed means..."

Zheng Mei opened his mouth slowly and made a gesture of "eating".

◇

The calm atmosphere suddenly changed.

"What is he saying?What he said is true?Wait, why did he disclose such inside information to me, or, is he...doubting me? Thinking in his heart, Tang Qing made a standard expression of astonishment on his face.

Four, three, two, one!He counted to zero in his head, and then laughed in panic: "Haha, Officer Cheng, don't be kidding me! Cannibalism? I don't like watching Hong Kong thrillers."

Zheng Mei propped his head up with his stretched hand against OK, and quietly looked at the expression on Tang Qing's face. Under the dim light, half of his face was hidden in the shadows and could not be seen clearly, only a pair of slender and curved smiles The eyes, even in the dark, still shone with compelling brilliance.

"One of the top ten strange cases in Hong Kong, the massacre of the Eight Immortals Hotel in [-]. Seven years later, Li Xiuxian filmed "The Eight Immortals Restaurant: Human Pork Pork Buns", starring Huang Qiusheng." Zheng Mei said indifferently, "This film I love I watched it when I was in elementary school, and I still shudder when I think about it, because everything in this movie is true!"

The last two words, as if for emphasis, burst out one word after another from between the gaps between the teeth, the pronunciation is clear, and it hits the ground with a sound. Once it is thrown into the air, it seems to be able to see a row of gorgeous sparks.

Tang Qing frowned: "Officer Zheng, if I remember correctly, whether the corpses in the Eight Immortals Hotel massacre in [-] were really made into barbecued pork buns was inconclusive. Although Eleven human limbs were found in Grandma Yangtan, only one of the female palms was verified as belonging to one of the missing victims, and the identities of the rest have not been confirmed so far, so..."

"So, Boss Tang also likes watching Hong Kong thrillers?" Zheng Mei laughed.Tang Qing found that he smiled quite vividly, as if his facial features were stretched out, and he laughed comfortably and wantonly, but behind every smile, there seemed to be some deep meaning hidden.

"This movie is too famous, and because it's too unexpected, even a person like me who doesn't like watching thrillers knows something about it." Tang Qing replied cautiously.

This time it was indeed true.Because the focus of the exposure at that time was "cannibalism", he once suspected that this incident was not "man-made". It became an irrelevant headless case in my heart.

Zheng Mei stopped laughing, and said cheerfully: "So, Boss Tang should be in the same generation as me. Is it convenient to ask my age?"

"Three thousand..." Tang Qing stopped and said with a smile, "Forget it, I'm not kidding, I'm 32 years old."

"Snake?"

"Exactly."

Zheng Mei laughed: "I'm a sheep, just two years younger than you, why don't I call you Brother Tang from now on?"

"How dare you do it." Tang Qing also smiled, "But if Officer Zheng doesn't dislike it, I don't mind adding a brother like you."

"Of course I won't despise him. Brother Tang, who has a successful career at such a young age, my brother, I can't even envy him. How can I despise him?"

"That's good." Tang Qing picked up the glass bottle on the side and added soda to Zheng Mei's cup, and said casually: "Brother Zheng, since you call me big brother, then I will ask you something, brother, why would you Do you suspect that the corpse was eaten?"

"Thank you." Zheng Mei picked up the cup, took a sip, and said, "Because of the bite marks. The corpse in the back alley only had a head, and all other parts of the body were gone. Judging from the cut section of the neck wound, there are The tearing marks don't look like they were cut off by a sharp weapon, but rather like they were bitten by some wild beast."

Bitten to death by wild animals?Tang Qing's heart sank for a moment, could it be...

"Could it be that some beast from the zoo has escaped?"

"It's not impossible, although the police haven't received a distress call from any zoo in the city so far."

"Maybe because the matter is too big, so the people below conceal it?"

"Unless this person has the ability to single-handedly capture all the wild beasts that escaped, he will have to report them sooner or later. Speaking of which, the seven wolves that escaped from Baishiqiao Zoo four years ago were captured and returned to the zoo without doing anything. .The beasts in the zoo are all over-domesticated, and they are basically not wild.”

"Could it be pets raised by citizens, such as Tibetan mastiffs, Dobermans, etc.?"

"If it's a pet, it may be possible to kill a person according to common sense, but it should not swallow other parts of the human body."

Tang Qing thought for a while: "Since the deceased may have been bitten to death by a wild beast, what does it have to do with this person?" He said, pushing the photo to Zheng Mei's eyes.The long round face of a young man in his twenties smiled quietly under the candlelight. It can be seen that this person is not very confident. When facing the camera, the smile on his face is also a bit forced and unnatural.

Zheng Mei looked at the photo and said, "His name is Tan Xinghui, he is 27 years old, from Shandong, he came to work in this city after graduating from university, and he was doing business in a Sino-US joint venture before the accident. At a little early this morning, an old man who came out to use the bathroom in the back area saw him running out in a panic. The two met each other, but didn't pay attention. Early this morning, a cleaner found the garbage dump The body part, and then reported to the police. When the police went to investigate, he thought of such a case. In my personal opinion, this person may not be the murderer, but he must be the first person to find the body. Unfortunately, He is now missing."

"Missing?" Tang Qing frowned, "It seems that the situation is very dangerous."

"That's right. If Tan Xinghui is not only the first discoverer, but also an eyewitness to the murder, then the police may not only be looking for him, but also the real murderer. This can explain why Tan Xinghui is missing now. He must be I saw something, so I hid in fright.”

"But..." Tang Qing waved his hand and interrupted Zheng Mei's words, "I remember you said just now that the victim might have been bitten to death by a beast. Could it be that this beast can understand human nature, or that a murderer raised a A monster that eats human flesh? Is this possible in today's society?"

"In today's society, what else is impossible?" Zheng Mei asked back.

"Okay, even if there is such a guy who raises a murderous beast, how can Tan Xinghui run away if he encounters the scene of him killing? There is no chance of winning at all against the speed of a beast unless Tan Xinghui Possesses unique skills, but I don’t think he is this kind of person.”

Zheng Mei's expression suddenly became very irritable, he brushed his messy hair, and the garbage on his head kept falling down: "That's why I said trouble, Tan Xinghui may be missing, but there is another possibility Even if he died, and this time, there may not even be a head left!"

"I don't agree with this." Tang Qing leaned against the bar and said leisurely, "The food intake of an adult tiger is only six kilograms of meat a day, and that of an adult lion is about seven kilograms. Assuming that the last deceased was swallowed by that beast In addition to other parts of the body, if the weight of an adult is at least over [-] kilograms, it is not easy for this beast to swallow the first person. How can it still have the energy to eat the second person, unless it is A tyrannosaur."

"That's right!" Zheng Mei patted the table excitedly and said, "Brother Tang is the one who is well-informed, so it seems that Tan Xinghui's chances of being alive are quite high!"

Tang Qing watched him troubled and revived, and felt funny in his heart, but he still comforted him on the side: "Brother Zheng, things may not be as bad as you think. Anyway, you have mastered the victim If the identity of the deceased is confirmed, then there will always be some gains if we investigate the relationship.” After a pause, he added, “I think it’s written like this in detective novels, and all crimes are Motivated."

"That's what I said, but if you run into a perverted killer, things will be difficult. There was a serial murder case in the United States. All the victims and the murderer didn't know each other. He just developed into a murderer because of his fetishism. Women’s red high-heeled shoes, to kill women wearing red high-heeled shoes, and then cut off the soles of their red high-heeled shoes, and store them in the refrigerator at home...”

Tang Qing raised his eyebrows: "Then, his motivation is collection addiction, or his collection addiction comes from an unsatisfactory childhood or a psychological defect. I am not a detective, but I know that no matter what a person does, there will always be There is no criminal act without a motive. But the more you do it, the more you cover it up, the easier it is to show your feet.”

Zheng Mei seemed to admire Tang Qing even more. He looked at Tang Qing with infinite admiration in his eyes: "Brother Tang, what motive do you think this murderer killed?"

Tang Qing smiled and said: "How do I know this? For money, for love, for hatred, or for a certain characteristic of the victim to match the characteristics of the person he likes to kill. It's just that the method is so cruel, I'm afraid the murderer's heart How much to bury is questionable."

"Hey, that's right." Zheng Mei sighed, "In this society, there are everyone. Last time our colleagues handled a case, it was really funny to say it.
