Can't Save the World by Pretending to be Dead

23 years ago.

February 1997, 2, the morning of the first day of the new year.

It was a sunny day, the sun was shining, and there were no clouds in the sky.

Workers living on the third floor of the No. [-] dormitory building of Chang'an Fan Factory put on new clothes and scarves, and prepared to go out to visit relatives and friends.The girl on the third floor stood in front of the iron gate, and her mother knelt down to tie a scarf for her. The little girl looked upstairs slowly with ignorant eyes.

Along the eaves of the corridor, she watched and watched quietly.

"Mom, it's raining red."

"Where does the red rain come from? It's sunny, it's nonsense."

"Red rain, look at the red rain."

The young woman looked in the direction of her daughter's finger, when she saw the river of blood dripping from upstairs along the corner of the wall...

"Ahhhh!!!"

Ten minutes later, the police from the police station two streets away received an alarm and arrived at the dormitory building of the fan factory.

At that time, Lao Wu was not called Lao Wu, but his name was Wu Fang, and he was a new police officer who had just entered the police station for half a year.On the first day of the Lunar New Year, all the old policemen went home for the New Year, and he and a senior who had a dead wife were the only ones on duty at the station.After receiving the police, the two didn't take it seriously, they just thought it was some neighborhood dispute or husband and wife conflict.

Changan Fan Factory has not had a murder case for decades, but the husband and wife quarreled every day for three days, and the police in the factory often came to help deal with these trivial matters.

Wu Fang and his senior came to the dormitory of the fan factory. He felt relieved when he got off the bicycle, but the senior was very experienced. When he saw the crowd of good people who surrounded Building No. [-], he immediately thought that something was wrong.

"Xiao Wu, prepare to call for support. I don't think it's easy to do today."

Wu Fang was taken aback: "Okay, I'll go back to the office and make a call later."

Old policeman: "Call now! Just call the small shop on the side of the road with their home phone number!"

Wu Fang felt strange, but didn't say anything.He ran to the canteen and called the two policemen who were on duty at the police station in the next jurisdiction.After he finished making the phone call, the senior had already entered the No. [-] building of the fan factory.Wu Fang hurriedly followed. He was walking in the narrow stairs. As soon as he reached the fourth floor, he saw the senior running out of a room and onto the corridor.

It is 404.

There are four families living on the fourth floor of the fan factory. 404 is the closest to the stairs, followed by 403, 402 and 401.

"Uncle Zhang? What's the matter?"

Uncle Zhang stretched out a hand towards him.

Wu Fang stopped in his tracks.

next moment.

"vomit!!!"

At noon, people from the Criminal Police Brigade of the Municipal Bureau came.

The four dormitory buildings in the entire fan factory were all sealed off, and no one was allowed to go out.

As the first policeman to arrive at the scene, Wu Fang saw everything that happened in that room.

Broken limbs, dim light, blood all over the room.

The male owner was hacked to death with a knife, and the murderer put the body on a chair and sat at the dining table.

There is a casserole on the table, and a pot of red meat is stewed in the pot.I ate half and left half.It's like braised pork, but it's not braised pork.Because there was more meat stewing in the large iron pot on the gas stove in the kitchen, a woman's arm was inserted into the pot, as if carefully decorated by the chef.

Wu Fang felt sick for a while.

However, things are not over yet.

The people from the criminal police brigade hadn't arrived yet, and the four policemen from the police station pushed open the doors of the three rooms next door.

"There are more here!"

"And here!"

"I have three victims here!"

Suddenly, Wu Fang felt a chill rising from the soles of his feet in his heart.

Bitter freezing.

The warm sunshine in winter cannot warm up, and the cold wind in the twelfth lunar month is not as cold as it.

[-]th Floor, Building [-], Changan Fan Factory.

Four families.

All were killed!

……

Now 23 years have passed, Xiao Wu has become Lao Wu, and he has also changed from a small police officer to the deputy team of the Criminal Police Brigade of the Municipal Bureau.

"Captain Wu, you still won't go home today. It's been a few days, sister-in-law, don't you blame me haha."

Old Wu held an old enamel cup, made a cup of hot big black tea, and said nonchalantly: "Go home? Why go home! Old couples are disgusted by it! You young people know a lot, sticky all day long, and you don't care about it. Not disgusting."

"Captain Wu, you're still looking at the case file of the fan factory."

"Hey, the fan factory dormitory will be demolished next week, do you know?"

"I know I know."

Old Wu: "I really can't find out..."

Criminal policeman: "All the workers in the dormitory went to watch, and the scene was a mess. No useful clues were collected. I have to say, Captain Wu, I heard that you proposed to start with the victims in room 404?"

Old Wu: "I suggested an egg, but nothing was found."

The criminal policeman muttered, "But I think you're right!"

Old Wu rolled his eyes.

Check, of course.

But it couldn't be found out back then, and it's even more impossible to find out now!

This is not like the big silver case in Northwest China that was cracked a few years ago.

The murderer of the Baiyin case left his semen, but it was not found out due to the lack of DNA technology and database at that time.But the murderer in the fan factory dormitory building was so lucky that the scene was completely destroyed by the good people, and he didn't leave any useful evidence.

Is this really the end?

Next week, the fan factory dormitory building will be demolished...

At this moment, the telephone in the bureau rang.

"Hello, Criminal Police Brigade of Sucheng City Bureau. Huh? Wumen Police Station? Yes, you said...surrender?"

The criminal policeman clenched the microphone and turned his head: "Captain Wu!"

Old Wu: "What's wrong?"

"Self-surrender!"

Putting down the enamel cup, he seemed to have guessed something, and Old Wu asked slowly: "...Who surrendered?"

"The murderer of Chang'an Fan Factory!"

***

It's been a week.

The dormitory building of Chang'an Fan Factory was supposed to be demolished this week, but suddenly the murderer from 23 years ago appeared, and the eyes of the people of the whole country once again focused on this small dormitory building.

The police, reporters, and all kinds of people who eat melons full of curiosity go back and forth near the dormitory building every day.

Even CCTV sent reporters down to interview.

This day Lian Xi had just put on his clothes and went out when the door opened a crack when he saw a female reporter with an interview microphone at station C coming up the stairs. The scene of the "Sioux City 2.07 extraordinarily large burglary and murder case", now we have come to the fourth floor. It is reported that since the brutal murder, there has only been one family living on this floor, and he lives on this floor. Room 403. Let's interview him."

Lian Xi who closed the door with a swipe: "..."

Boom boom boom!

Boom boom boom!

"Hello, is anyone there?"

Lian Xi who was blocking the door: As long as I pretend to be dead you can't see me, as long as I pretend to be dead you can't see me!

After 3 minutes: "It seems that the tenant is not at home, so let's continue to look at the scene of the incident..."

At this time, a cheerful and smooth mobile phone ring came from the door of Room 403.

Female reporter: "..."

Lian Xi: "..."

Quickly hung up the phone quickly.

Outside the door, a pleasant female voice sounded: "Hello, is anyone home?"

Lian Xi, who was pretending to be dead, was not moved at all.

After another 5 minutes, the female reporter: "..."

smile.

"It seems that this tenant is indeed not at home."

Hearing the footsteps outside the door gradually walking away, 10 minutes later, they finally finished filming at the crime scene and went downstairs.Lian Xi breathed a sigh of relief.He turned on the phone, saw the call record, raised his eyebrows in surprise, and called back.

"Hey Xiao Lian, why did you call back now? What happened just now?"

"There was something wrong just now, Uncle Li, what's the matter?"

"There is something! Good thing! Our house is being demolished!"

Lian Xi: "???!!!" I see? !

Uncle Li: "Ah, I'm so happy to say it, my house is going to be demolished, and yours is going to be demolished too! Our two families are going to be demolished, and our community is going to be demolished!"

Then, Lian Xi finally understood the ins and outs of the matter.

It turns out that the municipal government has always planned to build another expressway from Wunan District to Zhejiang Province.There was a plan for this matter last year, but it has not been said where to go.Many neighborhoods were rumored to be demolished, but no one had ever rumored that it would be demolished in Lianxi's neighborhood.But just yesterday, suddenly!The house is about to be demolished!

I'm so happy for Uncle Li!

Uncle Li was Lian Xi's neighbor when he was a child.

After Lian Xi's father passed away in a drunk driving accident in his early years, he lived with his grandfather, and Uncle Li's family was right across the door.After grandpa also went, Lian Xi was still young and had no relatives at home, so he could only go to the orphanage.But their family's house is still there.

The house is very remote, old and old, no one buys it at all, so it can only be watched.

Who knew that such a pie could fall from the sky, but it was about to be demolished!

Uncle Li: "Xiao Lian, why do you think there is such a good thing? I heard that each family will give more than 100 million yuan! Come back quickly to complete the formalities. There are people queuing up at the neighborhood committee this morning. Hurry up! "

Lian Xi: "Okay, thank you Uncle Li, I'll go right away!"

After hanging up the phone, Lian Xi was still in a trance.

Demolition.

Get Rich Overnight...

Demolition.

Get rich overnight!

He lowered his head slowly, looked at his hand, and suddenly his eyelashes trembled, and all he could see was a bright and warm golden light.

He raised his head following the golden light.

I saw a middle-aged man wearing a big padded jacket, his head covered in blood, and an honest face standing in the room.He rubbed his hands awkwardly and bowed to Lianxi.He straightened up and seemed to want to say something, but he didn't know what to say, so he smiled innocently and bowed again.Then, the body slowly dissipated into the air.

As he dissipated, the golden light around him also disappeared, turning into dancing starlight all over the room, and finally returned to peace.

Lian Xi opened Weibo.

For several days in a row, the whole country was discussing the Sioux City 2.07 tragedy.

He clicked on the hot search number one.

I flipped through the popular Weibo, and soon saw a warm family photo of a family of three.

The woman is wearing a white dress, snuggling up beside her husband.They lead a little girl with two pigtails and smile happily towards the camera.

There was a huge black mole on the man's mouth.Because she was smiling, the mole also raised slightly.

After watching silently for a while, Lian Xi laughed.

"It seems that this time, it's a blessing."

***

Because the murderer of the fan factory dormitory murder case suddenly appeared, the leaders of the fan factory did not demolish the dormitory building immediately due to the high degree of discussion outside.This also gives residents like Lian Xi more time to move.

In the next few days, Lian Xi was busy going through the formalities and waiting for the demolition fee.

To go to Wunan District, it takes an hour to take the bus every day.It takes two hours to go back and forth!But Lian Xi was not tired at all, and got up early every morning to queue up.

It doesn't matter what the demolition fee is, the main reason is to complete the formalities earlier, so as not to delay the people's livelihood of our country's highway construction!

In the evening, I returned to the dormitory building of the fan factory with the final paperwork.

Before even entering the door, Lian Xi was stopped by the guard uncle.

"Hey, Xiao Lian, you're back." As he said that, he said to a group of elders and aunts sitting next to him, "This is Xiao Lian who lives on the fourth floor! The entire fourth floor has been lived by himself for so many years. .”

"He is such a handsome young man!"

"Young man, aren't you afraid?"

Lian Xi shook his head with a dry smile: "Not afraid."

After he left, there was a group of uncle guards chatting behind him.

"Let me tell you, who would know that Liu Sanzao is such a bastard! I have worked with him for half a year, half a year! I didn't see it at all!"

"You said this Liu Sanzao, who was far away, why did he come back? Isn't he afraid of being defeated?"

"Ask me this, I really know it! When he first came here, he often went for a stroll in Building [-]. I asked him what he was doing. Guess what he said? He said he heard that it was the building for the dead. Half a year later, the dormitory building It’s about to be dismantled, he’s curious, he’ll take a second look, and he won’t be able to see it anymore. I think he’s a pervert!”

"Yes! It's been so many years, no one has found him, old bastard, so I just want to come over and see where he killed him back then!"

The criminal police who went back to the scene to take pictures and prepare to write a criminal investigation report passed by. He curled his lips when he heard this.

Back at the Municipal Bureau, he asked: "Captain Wu, why did you say that Liu Sanzao suddenly returned to the fan factory? Hasn't he been doing well all these years? After hiding for so many years, he has to go back?"

Old Wu: "Hey, what do you think is gross?"

The criminal policeman recalled the gossip and gossip of those uncles and aunts: "Is it really because the fan factory is about to be demolished? Captain Wu, what did the prisoners say when you interrogated them?"

Old Wu sneered: "He's crazy. That night, he got wounds all over his body and his face was covered in blood. He crawled to the police station crying and begging the police not to drive him out. There is a ghost outside! When he was interrogated later, he explained everything in one go, and kept muttering that there was a ghost. I think there is a ghost in his heart!"

"I understand, pretending to be crazy, thinking that you can not die like this? You are an idiot."

"Hehe, the law will give the victim an explanation, this old bastard can't escape."

The two talked for a while, and the criminal policeman: "Captain Wu, you haven't said why he wants to go back to the fan factory."

Wu Dui held the warm enamel cup, looked far away, and thought for a long time: "That kind of abnormality has long been abnormal. The fan factory will be demolished, and he will never see his 'masterpiece' again. I want to go back and see more. You said, if you stand next to the crime scene every day, no one else will be able to find you...Aren’t you exciting? "

The criminal policeman trembled all over: "I just feel scared, afraid of being caught!"

"So you are not a murderer hahahaha!"

"But I heard that he was just a gangster back then. At the beginning, he broke into 404 just to rape the hostess. Who knew that the host should take his daughter to the mother-in-law's house to pay New Year's greetings, but he left something on the way and came back. Got caught. That's not premeditated murder."

"Then what happened afterwards? I was afraid that I would be found out that I only killed three members of the 404 family, and if I was found, I didn't do it at all, and kept picking the door locks one by one, killing all the people on the first floor! This is also true. Wasn't it premeditated?"

"Ah, this..."

"From the moment he moved the knife and saw blood, he was no longer a person. Or..."

Wu Dui gritted his teeth, closed his eyes, and saw that morning 23 years ago, that chilling purgatory on earth.

"From when he touched people's buttocks in the street, from when he picked the lock to enter the door and raped..."

"He's not human anymore."

Criminal policeman: "Ah..."

Wu Dui put down the enamel cup, looked at him, and said earnestly: "Xiao Wang, some people are born as human beings. Some things have long since ceased to be human beings."
