"The white brains mixed with the bright red blood flowed into the bathtub, like a bowl of duck blood tofu soup, the color is extremely beautiful. Boohoo, my left eyeball was trampled to pieces.

The remaining right eye bounced a few times on the bathroom floor and I saw...the woman and Jennifer...

——Suicide: Wu Ming"

Shen Tucheng read the whole story in one breath, and collapsed on the chair all of a sudden.Like a fish out of water, his mouth opened and closed, but he never made any sound.He felt that it was difficult to breathe, and whether Wu Ming was the murderer or the deceased, both results made him uncomfortable.

It was quiet in the locked office, and no one spoke for a while.Shen Tucheng's eyes wandered, and his fingers unconsciously groped on the table.Seeing Liu Xia, she passed a cigarette silently.As a result, Shen Tucheng held the cigarette in his mouth, but did not light it immediately. "Give me a glass of water." He said hoarsely.

Gu Panhao's hand was held tightly by Shentucheng all the time, he sighed, and signaled Liu Xia to obey with his eyes.At this time, he was still in Lian Qiaoye's body, and in Liu Xia's eyes, he was quite uncomfortable with the intimate actions of the two of them.But fortunately, Liu Xia was not a brat who didn't care about the seriousness. He only gave Shen Tucheng a look, and obediently took a glass of water over.

Shen Tucheng took the cigarette out of his mouth, took a big sip of water first, and then lit the cigarette—not putting it into his mouth, but throwing it into the cup.

The cigarette butt with sparks was extinguished bit by bit in the cold water. Shen Tucheng watched it for a while, and finally managed to breathe steadily—he was always a calm person, and he had many strange ways to calm himself down. Gao Jie and Liu Xia both admired this.

After exchanging glances with Liu Xia, Gao Jie spread out a stack of documents on the desk one by one, and said with a serious expression: "Just received the report, Wu Ming confirmed that he died at home at 45:[-] this afternoon." After thinking for a while , he added, "The death statement is the same as that written in that blog post, and the specific autopsy report will not be released until tomorrow at the earliest."

Hearing this, Shen Tucheng involuntarily tightened his grip on Gu Panhao's hand.Since they learned that the next victim was Wu Ming, they acted as quickly as possible, intending to quickly find Wu Ming and protect him, but no one expected that just as they stepped out of the police station, they received Wu Ming news of death.

Gao Cong pointed to the documents on the table, and said, "Including the 308 girls' dormitory, we are now the ninth person." None of them told Liu Xia that Lian Qiaoye had died, so the real death The number should be ten people.

"According to the time of discovery, they are Bai Lu, Xiong Lingling, Chu Feiyan, Zhou Ying, Lin Bingbing...Sun Zhizhe, Guo Kai, Lu Zhonghui, Wu Ming." Gao Jie clicked on the corresponding report every time he mentioned a name, pausing for a while After a while, he changed the positions of some of the documents, "However, according to the autopsy report and other clues, their real order of death should be: Bai Lu, Sun Zhizhe, Xiong Lingling, Chu Feiyan, Zhou Ying, Guo Kai, Lin Bingbing, Lu Zhonghui, Wu Ming."

Liu Xia nodded and continued: "Judging from the story Sun Zhizhe left on the 'Hell' forum, he should have died the next morning after Bai Lu's death. In the evening, Xiong Lingling died. In the afternoon of the second day, the cleaning lady of University Z found Chu Feiyan's body... After the winter vacation, Zhou Ying died on the day she arrived in W City. According to the degree of decay of the animal corpses in Guo Kai's house, and taking into account the impact of his house's heating , His death time should also be in the first few days of the winter vacation... After the winter vacation, on the first day of school, Lin Bingbing disappeared..."

However, since Lian Qiao also saw Lin Bingbing, it was determined that Lin Bingbing was dead, and then Lian Qiao was also dead. I got the news that Sun Zhizhe 'died' in an Internet cafe - an obvious point of contradiction, Sun Zhizhe 'died' twice. It stands to reason that we should believe the facts we have seen instead of ghost stories that we don't know the truth of. However, Sun Zhizhe's autopsy report did prove that he died shortly after Bai Lu's death."

While talking, Gao Jie asked Gu Panhao with his eyes calmly, and after getting a reply for which the other party didn't understand the reason, he sighed and said, "Leave this question aside for now, let's review the basic information of the ten deceased. "

"This, let me do it." Shen Tucheng finally spoke.He thought for a while and said: "The dormitory arrangement of Z University is divided according to the 'department'. Except for the coincidence, all the girls in the 308 dormitory are from the English department. Among them, Bai Lu and Zhou Ying are sophomores, and everyone else is still a freshman. ...The situation in the boys' dormitory is a bit more complicated - because a subway line in the city runs across the dormitory building, the school decided to draw a lot from each dormitory to move one or a few boys from each dormitory to the original staff dormitory. The departments and grades in this dormitory are very mixed... Zhizhe is from the School of Medicine, Wu Ming is from the School of Art, both of them are juniors, Guo Zi... Guo Kai is a freshman, and the rest are sophomores .”

Shen Tucheng finished speaking in one breath, but Gao Jie and Liu Xia didn't speak again, but frowned in unison.Obviously, it was these clues that gave them a headache, not because there were too few clues, on the contrary, they all felt that there were too many clues.Of course, having too many clues is not a bad thing, but if you add "quality" to the premise of "quantity"-miscellaneous, it will make people very distressed.

So far, the clues that a few people know, whether they are exact or speculative, are numerous and complicated, like a tangle of tangled wool. A deadlock is likely to form.

"I have to think about it..." Liu Xia fell into the recliner exhaustedly, muttering something.In fact, he hadn't had a break for days in order to deal with the chain of events that had unfolded.

And Gao Jie is not much better, although he is still in a half-human, half-ghost state in essence, and his perception of fatigue is much lower than that of ordinary humans, but after all, he has only just begun to manipulate human bodies for a long time. It is impossible not to be tired at all.He stood up unsteadily and said firmly, "No, we don't have time."

Liu Xia turned a deaf ear, closed his eyes and refused to move: "I can't... I'm going to die... Even if Die Xian finds me now, I can't move anymore." Pulling a coat over his head, his voice was intermittent "Let me sleep, or I'd rather die..."

Seeing his subordinates acting like rascals, Gao Jie glanced awkwardly at Shentucheng and Gu Pan respectively. Seeing that they had no intention of objecting, he coughed and said, "There are only two people left in the boys' dormitory. One is Wang Shiwei. , one is Hu Jianhui... Cough, if you count by the number of people participating in the game, you should also be counted, Shentu."

Shen Tucheng suddenly smiled: "I hope it's me."

Gu Pan held Shentucheng's hand with his backhand, and said flatly, "It can't be you."

"Why are you so sure?" Gao Jie narrowed his eyes.

Gu Panhao ignored him, stared straight into Shentucheng's eyes, and said, "I won't let you have any trouble." Every word was resounding.Shen Tucheng suddenly realized that he was no longer a complete protector, his Ah Hao had been desperately protecting him.

The heartstrings twitched fiercely like this, and Shen Tucheng touched his chest in a daze, it was warm, as if someone delivered a bowl of hot soup in a world of ice and snow, the warm feeling went directly to the heart through the palm of the hand, through the throat.This is an experience he has never had before, even his biological parents have never given him such a feeling, as if he couldn't bear it anymore, Shentucheng hugged Gu Panhao, his voice choked up: "Ah, let Let me see you, let me see you..."

Only at this moment did I have the most real feeling, I miss you, miss you so much.I have engraved your appearance in my bone marrow and blood for thousands of years.Now you are in front of me, Ah Hao, let me see you.

Gu Panhao shook his head in his arms: "Not yet."

Shentucheng didn't speak any more, he didn't even ask "why", he just hugged the person in his arms tightly with all his strength.

……

Liu Xia's slight snoring sound wandered around the room. Not far away, Gao Jie looked at Gu Panhao with defensive eyes.He coughed a few more times until Shentucheng let go of Gu Panhao, and then said: "Wang Shiwei is in W City, and Niushan Hospital has the strictest protective net, and the people living in it are not ordinary people. I think we don't need too much Worry."

"I don't care, it would be great if it came to me, and you will always be by my side." Shentucheng still refused to let go of Gu Panhao's hand, but his expression was very calm, "The people we should worry about now It's Jianhui."

Gao Jie nodded in agreement: "I have already sent someone to look for it."

Shen Tucheng looked at the date and said, "Today is Sunday, he should be at home."

"I've been there a long time ago." Gao Jie rubbed his forehead, "During the winter vacation, I wanted to gather all the people who might be involved with you, but no matter how many people I sent, no matter what method I used, there was no news at all... ...On the contrary, after the death, the news came all at once."

"Your consciousness is... Jianhui is not at home?"

"His parents divorced three years ago, and he lived with his mother in this city. When we found his home, his mother said he went to find his father."

"There is no news from his father?" Shen Tucheng quickly reacted.

"It's not impossible... He did go to his dad's place, but he went out after a few days. It is said that he went out to play with friends... As for who the friends are and where they go to play, his dad doesn't know anything."

From Gao Jie's words, it's not difficult to hear Hu's father's indifference towards Hu Jianhui. Shen Tucheng had heard Hu Jianhui talk about his family's affairs before. He knew that Hu Jianhui's father remarried shortly after divorcing his mother, and later had a child. , naturally gave all the father's love to that child.As for Hu Jianhui, he is already an adult, so there is nothing to blame as a father without asking a few questions.In the past, when Shen Tucheng listened to Hu Jianhui's talk about those things, he just listened, without feeling, let alone taking it to heart.But now that Hu Jianhui was in danger, thinking of Hu's father's indifference, Shen Tucheng's fists were clenched.

"Actually, it's not just sitting still." Gu Panhao moved Liu Xia's laptop to his side and said, "Since Die Xian is killing people through the Internet in this round, it is better to find it directly on the Internet than in reality." .”

"It's easy to say." Gao Jie snorted, "The virtual world is not smaller than the real world, so it's not easy to find someone? Besides, in reality, I can at least mobilize the entire criminal investigation team. When it comes to the Internet, who will buy your account?"

This was extremely rude, but Gu Panhao didn't get angry, he just said flatly: "I've tried forums, QQ, radio, and blogs, and the rest are nothing but campus, Weibo, online games, MSN, Facebook..." As he spoke, he looked up at Shentu City and asked, "How many of these can you use to contact Hu Jianhui?"

"Jianhui doesn't use Facebook, and we add friends to each other in the other four." Shentucheng thought for a while and replied, "There are seven or eight contact methods in total."

Gu Panhao nodded and said, "It's better for one person to watch a few things than to do nothing at all."

Indeed, it's better than doing nothing at all.Gao Jie thought about it for a while, and immediately asked someone to bring a few computers over.At nine o'clock in the evening, Liu Xia woke up. They ate a cup of cup noodles and perfunctoryly paid attention to their computers without blinking.

At midnight, Shentucheng's computer responded.
