Punishment Whisk

Zheng Zhi's face stretched longer than a donkey's: "Fang Zhongci! The September [-]th case has not been solved yet. As the leader of the special case team, you are going home now. Is it plausible?"

Fang Zhongci stood there silently listening to Zheng Zhi's nagging, waiting for him to calm down.

After nagging for a long time, Zheng Zhi didn't see any change in Fang Zhongci's expression.He sat down on the seat discouraged: "So, why?"

Watching Fang Zhongci move his Adam's apple, he still didn't say anything.Zheng Zhichang sighed: "Zhongci, people can't live in a mess all the time, sometimes if you don't say it, others won't know what you're thinking."

Fang Zhongci nodded, but still didn't intend to say anything.

Zheng Zhi knew that he would not be able to persuade Fang Zhongci to quit today no matter what, if Fang Zhongci asked him for leave today with a playful smile, he might still be able to reject it.But seeing Fang Zhongci's appearance, he knew something must have happened, but this little stubborn donkey refused to say anything.

Zheng Zhi sighed again: "You should take care of yourself, let's go, I'll watch over here for you."

"Thank you Zheng Zhi."

Zheng Zhi didn't look at him again, and waved him to leave quickly.

Before leaving, he went back to the office, ignored everyone's surprised looks, and called Ye Qi out alone.

Fang Zhongci took out the cigarette case and knocked on the bottom of the case. He wanted to pass a cigarette to Ye Qi, but suddenly he raised his head and bumped into Ye Qi's good student's face.So he put his hand away and lit a cigarette by himself.

Ye Qi unconsciously wanted to raise his hand, and quickly put it down before Fang Zhongci noticed: "Smoking is not good for your health."

Hearing this, Fang Zhongci sneered: "If it's not good, it's not good. Zuo is just a sustenance. If one day I have other sustenance, maybe I won't smoke."

After he finished speaking, Fang Zhongci took another sip. He didn't know if it was because of too much force. He felt the corners of his mouth trembling slightly: "I asked for leave, so please take care. Those people in the group, although All of them are excellent, but I have to admit that they are not as good as you in this big case."

After finishing speaking, Fang Zhongci glanced back at Ye Qi who was still dazed, put out the cigarette butt on the trash can in the corridor, and left.

Ye Qi stood there, repeating Fang Zhongci's words of affirmation to him just now in his mind.He watched Fang Zhongci get into the car until his car turned and disappeared from the street.

In the clear sky, at some point, a few pieces of gloom were mixed together, forming a whole piece of dark cloud.The more Fang Zhongci opened the door, the more gloomy the sky became, and the gloom began to weigh on his heart a little bit.

Emotionally, he believed in his father.From the subordinate's point of view, he is also willing to believe that the party that has been working hard for many years will not make mistakes in any position related to justice.

Fang Zhongci can't apply for files with great fanfare now, but he knows that his father has the habit of collecting and sorting out the cases he has handled.If the formal channels are not easy to get, he can only start from here.

Fang Zhongci's mother passed away many years ago, and there are only three people in this family including Aunt Tian who has been a housekeeper for many years.Both father and son are police officers, which makes the family look very unpopular.

Seven years ago, Fang Zhongci graduated from the police academy.In order to avoid suspicion, he went directly to work in Jingning City.Coupled with the nature of his work, the number of times he came back in the past seven years can be counted on the fingers, and the reason for coming back now is so bitter.

As soon as the door was opened, a familiar aura hit Fang Zhongci, making Fang Zhongci's nose sore.At this point in time, there is no one at home.Fang Zhongci put on his slippers, went up the stairs, and pushed open the door of his father's study.

As always, it's clean and meticulous.All the case materials were kept in a secret door by his father Fang Tiancheng.Pushing open the sliding bookcase, Fang Zhongci faced the door for the first time.

Before his mother died, his father had always disagreed with Fang Zhong's resignation from the police.It was not until his mother passed away due to illness that his father finally let go and said that he would respect Fang Zhongci's choice.

Therefore, even if he ever wondered what was installed behind that door, it all came to nothing.It was used to pretend that his father had sorted out the case information, and it was also deduced by him later.

At this moment, facing the password on the door, he was a little at a loss.

The wear and tear of the buttons is almost the same. As a veteran criminal policeman, he will not ignore this anti-reconnaissance.Fang Zhongci began to search for all the information that might become a password in his mind.

The password is definitely not a birthday number that can be guessed with just a little bit of Baidu. It needs to be a string of numbers that are independent, have special meaning, are not easy to forget, and have strong privacy.

At this time, Fang Zhongci suddenly got into his mind a sentence his mother had said to him before his death.

"Love is that you want to see him all the time, and want to integrate every bit of him into your life, just like your father, even the phone password will be set as the day when I first met him. "

"Could it be..." Fang Zhongci pressed the familiar numbers, and those protracted thoughts suddenly came to his mind.As a result, when he pressed the last key, his fingers trembled uncontrollably.

Hearing the notification that the lock was successfully unlocked, the warmth in his eyes finally fell on the back of his hand without disappointment.Fang Zhongci only let it stay on his hand for a moment, then quickly wiped it off and walked in.

The case materials are arranged in an extremely regular manner and are arranged in chronological order.The notes organized in each case have a thick stack, and they are bound with kraft paper. The kraft paper is full of traces of wear and tear, which is the proof of years of reading and studying.

Fang Zhongci quickly found the case record of the July [-] case, and he felt strange when he took it out.Because it is so thin, it seems to be torn off a lot.But there was no way, Fang Zhongci could only quickly look through the remaining case records.

Suddenly, four sirens sounded in a large comprehensive vegetable market in Sishui District, Linye City. The reason was that someone reported to the police that there were human fingers in the drainage well of the vegetable market.

After receiving the alarm, the sub-bureau immediately started to salvage the drainage well, and the stench was infecting the surrounding large areas.To everyone's surprise, the weight of the remaining corpses showed that there may be more than seven or eight corpses under the drainage well.

Realizing the seriousness of the matter, Surabaya District immediately reported it to the Municipal Bureau, and Fang Tiancheng, who was the detachment leader at the time, took over the case.Due to the very limited technology at the time, the forensic doctors were helpless in the face of the corpses that had become mud, but they could only bite the bullet and separate them.At that time, even because of the shortage of manpower, some trainee forensic doctors who had just graduated were also used.

The police's investigation was quite satisfactory, monitoring, interviewing the masses at the scene of the crime, and visiting relatives of the victims who were matched.After a series of investigations, nothing was found.

But as more DNA was identified, they began to analyze how the victims' paths of action overlapped.But perhaps because the scope is too large, they have not been able to find the murderer.

But under such strict monitoring, another 36-year-old woman went missing, and her action route on the day of her disappearance was within the scope of the police's original monitoring.

Faced with the torment and pressure of dereliction of duty, Fang Tiancheng persisted in his investigation and finally found an eyewitness.The simulated portrait experts restored the murderer described by the witnesses, but because the crime was committed late, the results of several portraits were different, but the biggest feature was that there was an obvious large mole on the side of the bridge of the suspect's nose.

Looking at the replica photo of the portrait, Fang Zhongci felt vaguely familiar, but he couldn't remember it.It may be that the portrait is too distorted compared to the murderer, otherwise, with Fang Zhongci's professionalism, he can definitely confirm whether he has seen this person.

With the arrest warrant based on the portrait, there is still no news.

Flipping down further, Fang Zhongci found that there was almost nothing in the back, and the end of the remnant book was written with the conclusion of the case. ——The fire in the west of the city, the murderer died in the fire, and the DNA test matched.

There is also a paragraph at the back: "The underground space was discovered in the west of the city later. After investigation, it was the first crime scene. There were dismembered corpses and corpse torture tools at the scene."

There are a few dark handwritings on the closing page at the end, which may be left over from the torn title page.Fang Zhongci changed the angle of the notes, swayed to the light, and vaguely recognized a few words, cheating and sorry.

Fang Zhongci frowned tightly, thinking about it, maybe this sentence of sorry was addressed to his mother. Thirteen years ago, his father succeeded in being promoted to the deputy director because he broke the July 13 case, but he lost his beloved wife forever.

In fact, Fang's mother has always been weak and sickly, and she is a frequent visitor to the hospital.She spent twice as many days in the hospital throughout the year as at home.Even so, Fang Zhongci never thought that his mother would pass away suddenly.

At that time, the young Fang Zhongci was taken out of the evening study room, and told the cruel truth, he almost collapsed and rushed out the door.He took a taxi to the hospital alone. At this time, the white cloth had completely covered his mother's body, but even though he saw it with his own eyes, he still couldn't believe it was true.

He quietly called to his mother through the pale cloth, as if he was afraid of waking up a sleeping person.For a long time, Fang Zhongci did not dare to open the piece of cloth.

He tightly held his mother's already cold hand through the cloth, and the stiff feedback made him understand that he was late.But as long as Schrödinger's box is not opened, he will never know if the cat is still there, he still dare not pull the white cloth.

Fang Zhongci also remembered that his father was standing aside at that time.His eyes were already red and swollen, but he didn't say a word, as if the shell of his soul had been hollowed out, hanging there empty, motionless.

That day, Fang Zhongci still opened the box.In just that second, he felt something suddenly fill his eyes, and his vision was instantly blurred.

In the next few months, as long as my father was idle, he would always make a cup of tea that my mother liked to drink, and sit on a chair staring at the phone in a daze.

To this day, mother's death is still a taboo for father, and even the July [-] case has become a case that cannot be brought.

Suddenly, the crackling sound of keys unlocking came from downstairs, interrupting Fang Zhongci from his sad memories.The vigilant nerves engraved in his bones told himself that his father had returned.

He quickly took a picture of the piece of paper with the portrait of the suspect, restored the scene, returned to the original place, and exited the secret door, all in one go.

The footsteps were getting closer and closer, but Fang Zhongci's movements were clearly analyzed.

"Click——" Fang Tiancheng opened the door.
