Retire from the human world

Shen Dong's rented house is on the sixth floor, which is exposed to the sun in the west. It is extremely hot in summer. The whole room is like an oven. Sizzling Steak.

This is a two-bedroom house, and the people who shared the house moved out because they couldn't bear the heat.

The old electric fan creaked, and all the blowing was hot air. Turning on the faucet, the water coming out of the pipe was a bit hot. Shen Dong hurriedly washed his face with tap water, pulled off the towel and filled a basin with water , Humming a song and taking it directly to the bathroom to take a shower, how nice, there is no need to burn it, saving electricity bills!

The TV in the house next door was turned on very loudly, so when someone knocked on the door at first, Shen Dong didn't hear it at all.

When the door was knocked open with a bang, Shen Dong thought he had encountered a burglary, so he put on his dirty pants wet, picked up the mop, and rushed out of the bathroom: "Which bastard——"

The second half of Shen Dong's sentence suddenly got stuck when he saw the person who broke into the door.

A few detectives in dark green police uniforms stared at him nervously. The black muzzle of the gun made Shen Dong's mind go blank. Is this a dream?The classic line should be "Hands up, your business is wrong".

But Shen Dong felt that he was fine!Does it count as a decadent ruffian in the second year of middle school who spent a few years on the street?Do gang fights count?Does Gai Budai beat up a school bully?Fuck, it's not like chasing from the county to the provincial capital for these trivial things a few years ago?

Pistols are not vegetarian!Shen Dong hurriedly threw away the mop in his hand, and tried his best to force a smile: "You...I said, everyone, you went to the wrong door!"

"Stay! Hands up!"

The criminal police yelled loudly, and Shen Dong froze, so he had no choice but to raise his hand in desperation.He has good eyesight, and found that the neighbors outside the door who wanted to watch the excitement were forcibly persuaded by other criminal police to go back.As if they were here to catch some heinous criminal.

"Shen Dong, 23 years old, a graduate of XX Institute of Technology majoring in tour guides, right?" An older criminal policeman took out a piece of paper with a serious expression. Could it be the legendary arrest warrant?

Are you really looking for yourself?Shen Dong nodded puzzled.

Alright, at this point, two criminal policemen approached cautiously, grabbed him by the shoulders tightly, put a black hood on him, pushed and shoved him roughly, and escorted him upstairs. go down.

Fortunately, I am used to walking up the stairs, otherwise I would fall to my death!

Shen Dong wanted to scold, but he felt that a good man would not suffer at the moment, and he still hadn't figured out what happened!And obviously, the other party treated him as a vicious criminal. Not only were his hands tied behind his back and he was handcuffed to death, but his shoulders were also firmly pressed down. The two criminal policemen put their own weight on it!This kind of feeling like walking with a big bag, the center of gravity is unstable, okay!

——I don't know that two strong criminal policemen, one weighs 140 catties, and the two add up to nearly [-] catties. They tried their best to press down but failed to hold Shen Dong down. They were not the ones who pushed Shen Dong down from the stairs. It was Shen Dong who dragged them down.This made everyone even more nervous, wishing they could directly put iron chains on the "vital criminal"!

When Shen Dong was pushed into the police car, he could still hear the noisy discussions of the neighbors in the neighborhood. At this time, the police lights were probably turned on, and the people in the distance couldn't hear what the people in the distance were talking about amidst the piercing sirens.

Do you know what's worse than stopping the water in the middle of a shower, that is, being taken away by the police who broke into the door before the foam was washed off!

Fortunately, he put on his pants when he came out to see what was going on, otherwise... according to this arrest method, he might have to run naked!

The irritable Shen Dong maliciously rubbed left and right, thinking that the soap scum on his body must be wiped clean.

The police car drove for about half an hour, and Shen Dong really couldn't tell where he was going. After all, a police car with sirens on didn't need to wait for a red light. The distance estimation failed, and he was brought out in a daze. After entering a room, his calf was tightly handcuffed to the leg of a chair, and the black hood was pulled off.

Shen Dong blinked, and it took him a long time to get used to the light. He looked at the row of policemen sitting on the table with serious expressions in front of him speechlessly.

Uh, a few of them are still wearing casual clothes, but it seems that they are leaders.

Although being caught inexplicably is enough to make people angry and irritable, most people will feel extremely at a loss at this time. For individuals, state institutions are still worthy of awe, and for the time being, they are not motivated to curse people.

"Shen Dong, native of County X, orphan, college education, ID number..."

Seeing a big cap holding a file and reporting a bunch of information, Shen Dong was very powerless.This is obviously him!What on earth did he have to deserve to be taken to the police station?

"Speak! Don't pretend to be dead!" The other party snapped.

"...Comrade policeman, what I want to know most now is whether you wore it or I wore it! What happened, can I trouble you to give me a little saliva and explain it clearly? You have to have a reason for arresting anyone casually." !"

Someone patted the table, but was quickly stopped by a woman with sharp eyes. She said coldly: "We suspect that you are related to the recent serial murder case in the provincial capital!"

"what?"

"The latest victim, Lei Cheng, we announced to the public that he slipped and fell from the building. In fact, he climbed out of the window sill while avoiding the murderer, and fell to his death."

Shen Dong listened to the news of his classmate's death foolishly, opened his mouth and closed it again.

"Since July, a total of eight people have died in the provincial capital. Except for Lei Cheng, no one's body is complete, and the only common feature of these eight people is-you!"

"What? Don't be kidding, I only know Lei Cheng, he is my classmate!" Shen Dong was really angry this time, "I have never heard of the case of serial murder and mutilation. newspaper!"

"Considering the social influence, some cases have not been announced, and some cases are regarded as accidents like Lei Cheng's death..." The woman lifted her glasses, her expression was full of hatred, as if Shen Dong was really a perverted murderer. Eight photos were drawn, among them was Lei Cheng.

"These people's occupations include hawkers, fast food restaurant employees, community janitors...Basically they don't know each other. The only intersection in their lives before the accident. After investigation, it is only you. The house you rented is in this community. When you went to school I used to work as an hourly worker in this fast food restaurant, and I went to a small shop to buy instant noodles every few days, but I didn’t go there recently—of course, because you killed him..."

"and many more!"

Shen Dong protested dumbfoundingly, "You have also seen the neighborhood I rented, they are all old houses, the properties are different, I have never paid attention to what the security guard looks like, and that... That colleague from the fast food restaurant, I worked half a day with him, he resigned earlier than me, I even forgot his name, I bought instant noodles in the supermarket recently, I have no memory of the others..."

"Shut up, don't quibble, we have already gone through your resume in detail!"

Shen Dong was even more confused, he had no criminal record and had never committed a crime before, what was the reason for this tone.

"You have had poor grades since you were a child. When you were 15 years old, you messed around in the street. You beat seven people into the hospital. A fight broke down a wall... The record of the orphanage is even more brilliant, tearing down tables and chairs At least a dozen cases, this tendency to violence is very obvious."

Shen Dong is extremely embarrassing, he hates the files to be written concisely, obviously because he is relatively strong, and he was hyperactive and curious when he was a child, how to put it like an anti-human and anti-social BOSS.

He wanted to scratch his hair, but he couldn't move his hands. In the end, he had no choice but to say:

"It really has nothing to do with me. For more than ten days, I went to work every morning and went to Lei Cheng's house on the day off..."

"Still quibbling, do you go to work every morning?"

"That's right!" Shen Dong was extremely puzzled, logically speaking, the police even knew where he lived, and must have investigated his recent whereabouts.I heard that it was noon when Lei Cheng fell to his death, and he was still working in the supermarket at that time.

"Where and what exactly?"

Shen Dong felt that their expressions seemed to be mocking, and staring at him seemed to be watching the clumsy struggle of the prey in the trap.

"No. 47, Dongshan Road, Old Town, Shanhaiyigou Supermarket!"

"Number 47? Supermarket?"

The woman sneered and picked up a photo to show Shen Dong.

The photo is very clear. It was taken on the street where the Shanhaie.com supermarket is located. The buildings on the left and right sides are correct, but the place where the supermarket is located is dark, with no signboards, only rusty iron frames, long three The storefronts are all the old fence doors, and the glass windows are also broken and covered with dust.

Shen Dong opened his mouth wide in shock.

"This is the Dongcheng Song and Dance Hall. It closed down in the 90s of last century. The store belongs to a certain clothing factory, and later the factory was bought by a private person. The store here is very poor, so it has become unpopular. It has been there for more than 20 years. In this way, you told me that this is a supermarket?" The person who asked the question kept sneering, "I also want to ask you, what are you doing sneaking here every day?"

Shen Dong was completely dumbfounded.

In the past three years, every time he passed by the old city by bus, he could always see the towering big sign of Shanhai.com!brand too!Was it gone three hours after he got off work?A large supermarket turned into a dance hall that closed down N years ago?

Did he hit a ghost?

"You lock your bicycle on the side of the road every morning, and then go around to the fence. I don't know where you got into it. We searched for a long time in the vicinity, and even entered the dance hall, but we didn't find any traces... Today we also saw a monk from Come out there, around [-]:[-] p.m., you successfully picked up the hair in front of the steamed bun shop on XX Road Alley, and then separated again. We have implemented separate arrests. Now you are honestly confessing that you are a gang of criminals? Why did you kill and dismember the corpses? Is it trafficking in human organs?"

Shen Dong was completely dizzy, and in the end he could only insist:

"I don't know what you are talking about! I work in a supermarket every day. I found this job in the labor market. The supervisor of the human resources department of the supermarket is called Qi Long, and his phone number is..."

Shen Dong reported a series of numbers, but the person who asked the question recorded it down, and immediately signaled the person next to him to call, not because he believed Shen Dong's words, but because he thought he had caught another clue to the case. After all, the call can be found from a landline phone. Records, head of household, etc. useful information.

Shen Dong's heart was hanging, worried that the call was a busy signal or an empty number.

All the weirdness of the supermarket before came to his mind again, and he tried his best to convince himself, but staring at the photo made him feel nervous.

The phone can transmit sound through a special device, but only the voice of the speaker at the microphone can be heard over there.

The beeping bell only rang once and was answered.

"Hello, this is Shanhai Tesco Supermarket. The Qixi Festival and Fengdu Shopping Festival have passed. Please look forward to the Mid-Autumn Festival. Please press 1 for ordering, 2 for returning goods, and 3 for membership card services. If you need help, please Press 0, if you can't even use the phone, please go back to the exam!"

"..."

I don't know the expression of the criminal policeman who called, but the person who traced the phone signal has already identified the target: "Captain Zhou, the location of this landline is indeed in the Dongshan Road area of ​​the old city!"

There was a beeping sound from the phone, it seemed that 0 was pressed, but soon the accident came.

"...Zhou team, the communication records of this number cannot be queried, and the system says that I do not have enough authority!"

"What?" Before the shock was over, the phone call had been transferred to manual service.

"Welcome to call Shanhai.com. I am Kunwu Mountain. The general manager is losing weight. Director Du is in a daze. Ah Zhong is off work. Who are you looking for?"

"..."

If the situation wasn't too weird, Shen Dong would really burst out laughing. This is obviously the voice of that fat woman Qi Long, and she can be so funny when answering the phone. Does she think it's gossip? What's the delay?What is Kunwu Mountain, why does it sound familiar?

"Who are you guys?" The captain of the criminal police named Team Zhou suddenly grabbed the phone and yelled.

There was a weird silence on the phone, and then everyone in the room felt a chill down their backs for no reason, as if they were being glanced at by something terrifying.
