Madness of the Heart

Old movies from more than 30 years ago are playing on the screen.The quality of the movie is not good, and judging by the current perspective, there is nothing attractive about it.

Mingshu watched with concentration.

A muscular man is flexing his fists, his naked upper body is smooth and shiny, his eyes are burning with energy, accompanied by bold background music, it is easy to make people's blood boil with pride.

In the last century, many fighting movies were made in China, making a lot of kung fu stars popular. Many of them have achieved success and fame now, and Mou Haiyuan is one of them.

It is said that he is popular, but he is not as good as the top ones.

It is said that he is not popular, but many elderly movie fans talk about his works with gusto.

Of course, among the younger generation, few people have seen the movies he participated in.

Mingshu is one of these few young people, so when he saw the portrait of Xiaochen, he felt like he had seen it somewhere before.

"Wu Chen is really Mou Haiyuan?" Ming Shu propped his chin with one hand and whispered to himself.

"This is the result of multiple image overlay comparisons by the Technical Detective." Xiao Yu'an said, "Before you came back, the crime team had already contacted the agency that Mou Haiyuan used to retire. The news is that the agency has at least Eight years ago, I lost contact with Mou Haiyuan, and Mou Haiyuan is not married and has no children."

Mingshu tapped his left finger on his right elbow a few times.

When he was a child, it was common for him to fight with Xiao Jincheng.Xiao Jincheng was three years older than him, and for children, the age difference of three years was an insurmountable gap.At first he was always unable to beat Xiao Jincheng, when Xiao Yuan was around, he could flirt with Xiao Yuan and ask for help, but when Xiao Yuan was not around, he could only bite the bullet and do it.

After repeated defeats and repeated defeats, by chance, he saw a martial arts movie on TV, and he followed it enthusiastically, hoping to learn a "superior skill in the world" and beat Xiao Jincheng to pieces.

During that period of time, he watched all the martial arts movies he could find, and said whether his impression of Mou Haiyuan was deep or shallow.In the final analysis, he didn't watch martial arts movies as a movie fan, but just to defeat Xiao Jincheng.

However, things on TV seem easy but are difficult to learn. He often feels that he has become the king of martial arts, and he runs to fight with Xiao Jincheng, and in the end he is still a child fighting with dogs.

The eyes have learned, the body has not learned.

Later, he didn't learn much from movies.

When he watched Mou Haiyuan's movies, Mou Haiyuan had already stopped acting. He transformed from an actor to an action director, and later became a director.

After that, it basically disappeared from the public's sight.

Because he is not one of the most well-known martial arts stars, Mou Haiyuan retired ten years ago and did not attract much attention. Mingshu also quarreled with Xiao Jincheng once. Mou Haiyuan and other martial arts actors came to check their current situation out of interest, and learned that Mou Haiyuan was no longer in the movie circle.

"I remember watching an interview at that time." Ming Shu said: "Mou Haiyuan said that he would like to live abroad after he stopped making movies. If he is now abroad, then there is someone else in the world."

Xiao Yuan shook his head, "There is no entry and exit record for Mou Haiyuan."

Mingshu turned his face sideways, "Is there not, or have we not been able to find out yet?"

Xiao Yu'an said: "No. In the ten years since Mou Haiyuan quit the circle, he has never been abroad, at least not by normal means."

Mingshu frowned, "He has no criminal record, and he also said that he wanted to go abroad. There is no need for him to go abroad by abnormal means."

Xiao Yuan nodded, "So there is a high probability that Mou Haiyuan is still in the country. I have checked his consumption and ID card usage records. Eight years ago, that is, the year his original brokerage company lost contact with him, he had already transferred his deposit All of them were taken out, and after that, the ID card and bank card were never used again.”

Mingshu's pupils narrowed slightly, "Could this be to go to Haijing Temple to become a monk? That's not right, Mou Haiyuan disappeared only eight years ago, at least he went to Haijing Temple after that, but Xiao Chen has been in Haijing Temple for decades Assuming that he replaced the real Duchen, there is no reason why the original monks in the temple could not recognize him. It is also impossible that he has undergone plastic surgery and turned into Duchen, because we have identified him through the comparison of Duchen's portrait... "

As he said that, Mingshu suddenly stopped.

Xiao Yuan said, "Huh?"

"Hu Chengyi went to Haijing Temple to become a monk 32 years ago. According to him, Yuchen liked to explore Buddhism with him very much. Seven years ago, Yuchen fell ill and went down the mountain in autumn for a 'cloud tour'. Alone." Ming Shu said while pacing: "The appearance is still the same, but the inside has completely changed. I no longer talk to Hu Chengyi about Buddhism, and I have less contact with people. The tolerance and compassion I used to have become strange. He is gloomy and vicious. It is precisely because he feels that Duchen is no longer Duchen that Hu Chengyi left Haijing Temple three years ago and returned to his hometown."

Xiao Yu'an said: "Liu Sui and Tang Yuan also said that they felt that there were many changes in their bodies after the return of "Yunyou". But they were different from Hu Chengyi. Hu Chengyi had no distracting thoughts and devoted himself to practicing Buddhism, while Liu Sui and Tang Yuan There is a ghost in my heart, I didn't know much about Xiaochen in the past, so I couldn't find that Xiaochen was 'switched' like Hu Chengyi."

"Mou Haiyuan retired ten years ago, disappeared eight years ago, and replaced the real Dust six years ago." Ming Shu shook his head: "But why do Hu Chengyi, Liu Sui, and Tang Yuan think that Dust's appearance has not changed? Mou Haiyuan Let's live a good life, but what is the reason to replace Xiaochen?"

"Let's put down the latter question first. As for the former one, Hu Chengyi said that the appearance of the dust has not changed, and we have locked Mou Haiyuan based on the portrait of the dust, so there is only one possibility." Xiao Yu'an looked at Ming Shu: "Mou Haiyuan He and the real Dust are brothers, and there is a high probability that they are twins."

Mingshu took a breath, and his mind turned quickly.

This was indeed the most logical inference, but the problem was that Mou Haiyuan had never heard of a brother.

Mou Haiyuan has mentioned many times in public that he was born in poverty and was the only son in his family. In his early years, he worked hard to learn martial arts in order to be able to get ahead and prevent his family from living a life of hungry and full.

After becoming famous, Mou Haiyuan was notoriously filial. He worked hard outside, bought luxury houses for his parents, and hired professional nursing staff until his parents died one after another.

If Yuchen is really Mou Haiyuan's twin brother, why did Yuchen become a monk early?

The poor in the mountains, Mou Haiyuan didn't think about helping his relatives after he got rich, but after three or four years of retirement, he went to look for Yuchen and replace him?

What is the process of this "replacement"?

Mou Haiyuan killed his own brother?

"Now we must clarify Mou Haiyuan's real family background. What he said in the interview is not counted." Xiao Yu'an said: "I have sent someone to investigate in detail. You just came back, go take a rest."

Mingshu is tired, but he doesn't want to rest at this time, "I'm going to buy a cup of coffee, what do you want to drink?"

"I don't need it." Xiao Yu'an said, "Why don't you just order takeaway?"

Mingshu picked up his coat, "I want to take a walk and sort out my thoughts by the way."

Xiao Yu'an said, "I'll accompany you."

"That's not good for leadership." Ming Shu smiled: "The last time I went to buy milk tea with me, it was at night, but now it's broad daylight, and it's not good to be seen by others."

The temperature in Dongye City has cooled down again, and there is no feeling indoors, and it is cold as soon as you go out.

Xiao Yu'an said, "Take out the thick clothes you left in the closet and put them on."

Mingshu said: "How do you know that I stuffed a piece of clothing in the closet? Are you looking through your subordinate's work closet?"

"Not only did I search, but I also confiscated the cigarettes you hid." Xiao Yu'an said, "Your subordinates have any objections?"

Mingshu twitched his eyes, "The subordinates dare not, the subordinates dare not!"

Xiao Yu'an smiled and said, "Go."

Mingshu returned to the serious crime team from the deputy director's office, and looked at the window. He didn't plan to take thick clothes. The temperature is not too cold in his opinion. Besides, whether to buy coffee is actually secondary. He I want to go out and blow some wind to make my thoughts clearer.

If you dress too warmly, no matter how much the wind blows, it won't help.

But Xiao Yu'an turned over his cabinet, he had to see if there was anything else missing besides cigarettes.

If I remember correctly, there is still a pack of nuts in the cabinet.

Thinking about this, Mingshu has already walked to the side of the cabinet, opened it and saw that the smoke was gone, and the nuts were still there. The thick dress was a mid-length woolen coat, which was thicker than the one he was wearing. He thought for a while, I still decided to follow the instructions of the leader, change it before going out, but when I took out the coat, I found a scarf stuffed inside.

He definitely never put a scarf in it, it could only be put in when Xiao Yuan came to collect his cigarettes.

"Tsk." Mingshu laughed, casually hung the scarf around his neck, and closed the cabinet door.

"Master, where are you going?" Fang Yuanhang seemed to have just returned from the inspection.

"Buy coffee." Mingshu said, "I'll bring it back to you later."

Fang Yuanhang laughed, "My master is sensible!"

Mingshu slapped him in the eye.

Fang Yuanhang's gaze dropped, "Master, it's only been a few months, and you're already wearing a scarf?"

Mingshu said: "This is called fashion, understand?"

Fang Yuanhang blinked twice, thinking that you guys are popular, I don't care if I don't understand.

But on second thought, Yu Dalong was clamoring for his birthday, and it was getting colder and colder, so it was a good time to give a scarf.

Fang Yuanhang has always been a man, so of course he doesn't know what kind of scarves gays like, so why not ask Mingshu to copy the homework.

Mingshu watched Fang Yuanhang approach, his eyes fixed on his scarf, and remembered Fang Yuanhang's phrase "what nonsense are you talking about" when he interrogated Chuxin last time.

The apprentice should already know his orientation, but he pretended not to know, and firmly helped him to keep others' mouths shut.

Quite cute.

Mingshu was a little amused, and pushed Fang Yuanhang's head away, "What are you looking at?"

Of course, Fang Yuanhang would not say, "I want to give a scarf to a little gay guy, and I'll refer to you big gay guy here", but just said: "It's okay, just take a look, I want to drink a latte, a super large cup."

10 minutes later, the deliveryman delivered a cart of lattes, and everyone in the crime team had a share.

When everyone was praising Mingshu as a good captain who "donated righteousness and donated money", Xing Mu was holding a steaming latte, frowning and thinking - he gave me coffee because he thought I didn't work hard enough, and told me not to sleep after drinking it, Do you want to continue working?

Mingshu was walking on the road with his coffee in his hand, and sneezed out of nowhere.

The clothes are thick enough, and the neck is wrapped around the neck. It is impossible to sneeze because of the cold, it can only be discussed.

——The captain of the serious crime team, even if he is deserting, is doing reasoning.

After Mingshu finished his desertion, he continued to consider the case.

At present, Mou Haiyuan's background investigation is still in progress, and the motive is completely unknown, but since the technical comparison has locked in Mou Haiyuan, the possibility of making mistakes is very small.

Haijing Temple changed six or seven years ago.In the past, those who practiced Buddhism in Haijing Temple were either old monks or people like Hu Chengyi who had no evil intentions. Liu Sui and Tang Yuan were the exceptions.Seven years ago, Xiao Chen went down the mountain.Six years ago, the returning Peep Chen brought Yin Xiaofeng back, and since then, Haijing Temple has only accepted people with sinister intentions.

If Mou Haiyuan replaced the real Duchen six years ago, did he deliberately gather these people in Haijing Temple?What to do after concentration?

Chu Jiang, Chang Qingying, and Wang Lu's so-called "cloud travel" down the mountain was conveyed to the monks who stayed in the temple through the mouth of Xiaochen.These three people are currently missing. If they didn't go down the mountain to "wander" and Xiaochen made up a lie, then there is a possibility that they have been killed by Xiaochen.

Mingshu stopped, and the wrinkles between his brows deepened.

Peeping at the dust—the purpose of Mou Haiyuan's Haijing Temple where they are concentrated is to eliminate them one by one?

Apart from Chu Jiang, Chang Qingying, and Wang Lu, Yin Xiaofeng, Tang Yuan, Liu Sui, and Fang Pingxu are actually the targets of Peep Chen, but Peep Chen hasn't had time to make a move yet?

In what capacity is Sneaky Dust punishing these people?

What is the basis for selection?

If the three of Zhujiang had been killed, where were their bodies?

At the age of Xiao Chen, does he still have the ability to commit serial crimes?

An ordinary old man in his 70s or [-]s may not even be able to walk, but Mou Haiyuan has been practicing martial arts all year round, and his physical fitness cannot be compared with ordinary people.

Mingshu thought of the bodies of Lu Chen and Zhao Siyan again.

They just went up to the mountain to enjoy the autumn, and they encountered catastrophe. Their clothes were stripped, their bodies were pierced by ten iron nails, and their temporal bones were pierced by sharp knives.

When the criminal profile was first done, the murderer was identified as a professional killer.Yin Xiaofeng was forced to practice martial arts since he was a child, so he has this ability, while Mou Haiyuan, as a well-known martial arts actor for a while, is only stronger than Yin Xiaofeng in professional ability.

But if it was Mou Haiyuan who killed Lu Chen and Zhao Siyan, then it was Mou Haiyuan who dismembered Qiu Min's body.

Does Mou Haiyuan also hate Qiu Min?

Mingshu hurried back to the Criminal Investigation Bureau, only took two sips of coffee in his hand.

"You want to go to Mou Haiyuan's hometown in person?" Xiao Yu'an asked.

"I don't want to wait here for the results." Mingshu said, "I think the series of cases on Qiyue Mountain can all find their roots in Mou Haiyuan's background!"

Mou Haiyuan's ancestral home is Fucheng, Han Province. The houses that Mou Haiyuan bought for his parents were in Fucheng. When he announced his retirement ten years ago, Mou Haiyuan also said that he wanted to return to his hometown Fucheng to live for a while before going abroad.

Han Province is a large province, and Los Angeles is the capital.Compared with Los Angeles, Fucheng is a small city with average economic and cultural development.

Although Mingshu has been to Los Angeles quite a few times, he has never been to Fucheng in the same province.

Xu Chun has arrived early with a dozen team members.

It is currently confirmed that Mou Haiyuan once owned five properties in Fucheng, including two villas and three high-end commercial buildings, and four of these five properties have changed hands in the past two years from ten to eight years ago. There is only one villa under Mou Haiyuan's name, and this villa is not where his parents lived before their death.

"In today's words, Mou Haiyuan's 'personality' is filial piety. When a filial person sells his property, he will usually leave the house where his parents lived. But what Mou Haiyuan left behind is the one he lived in. Dong." Mingshu said, "This is not normal. Where are his parents buried?"

Xu Chun said, "Changchun Cemetery."

In recent years, the funeral industry has developed rapidly. There are four cemeteries in and around Fucheng. Changchun Cemetery is not the most expensive among them. However, considering that Mou Haiyuan’s parents passed away more than ten years ago, Changchun Cemetery was the best in Fucheng at that time. In the cemetery, there is nothing wrong with Mou Haiyuan burying them there.

Mingshu asked: "Have you visited Changchun Cemetery?"

"No." Xu Chun said, "Not yet."

Ming Shu thought for a moment, "Well, I'll go to the Changchun cemetery, and you arrange someone to go to the place where Mou Haiyuan's parents lived before, and you must be careful, so that people who know Mou's parents and Mou's mother can recall in detail the details of this family's relationship. Send a group of people to the place where Mou Haiyuan lives, and ask carefully."

Xu Chun said: "Understood!"

Both Dongye City and Luocheng City are facing water, and the air in autumn is humid, but there is no large water source around Fucheng City. After autumn, it is dry and cold, and there has not been a single rain.

Mingshu found the tomb of Mou Haiyuan's parents in Changchun Cemetery, and found that the tombstone was full of dust and very dirty.According to the staff, the people who are buried in this area are all rich people from 20 or [-] years ago. Although it is very inconspicuous now, Feng Shui is actually the best.

Ming Shu squatted down and looked at the two names on the double tomb, Mou Qinzhi and Fu Yinghua.

They are Mou Haiyuan's parents.

The tombstone itself is nothing special, but compared with the surrounding tombstones, it looks more old, as if it has not been taken care of for a long time.

Mou Haiyuan hadn't been seen for eight years, so it was reasonable that no one came to take care of him.

But wouldn't Mou Haiyuan take a look quietly?

Mingshu asked: "Do you have access records here?"

The staff showed a embarrassed look, "We have a symbolic visit record, but that is fake and has no reference value."

Seeing that the staff members were in their fifties, Ming Shu asked, "Do you have any impression of the person who bought this tomb?"

The staff said: "Mu Haiyuan, he is a celebrity in our hometown."

Ming Shu knew he was right to ask, "Then have you ever noticed when was the last time he came?"

"He never came!"

"Never?"

"We have also discussed this matter. It is said that the celebrity Mou bought such an expensive tomb for his parents. Why didn't he even come to visit the tomb on the death day and Qingming?" The staff said, "Don't think that our Fucheng is a small city. , People in our small city are more filial than those in your big cities. During the holidays, there are a lot of people who come to visit the grave. Mou Haiyuan is a celebrity, so everyone pays attention to him. He really has never been here. Will he After mom and dad were buried together, he paid a management fee and never showed up again. Look at the old tombstone, because the management fee expired three or five years ago, and no one has taken care of this tomb."

Driving back to the city center from the Changchun Cemetery, Mingshu suddenly thought of a question—are the two people buried in the tomb definitely Mou Haiyuan's parents?

A person's life experience is easy to check now, but if it was decades ago, it is actually a muddled account.

It is already a fact that Mou Haiyuan looks very similar to Xiao Chen seven years ago, and Mou Haiyuan has always claimed to be the only child in his family.

If Mou Haiyuan told one lie, it's hard to say that he wouldn't tell another lie.

The search warrant has been issued, some members of the serious crime team entered the only remaining property of Mou Haiyuan, and some members visited around the former residence of Mou Haiyuan's parents.

"I know their family. This family is very strange." Wang Mengxiang is in her 70s and has been neighbors with the Mou family for half her life. "People who live in this area have a good family background, but their family feels out of place with the surroundings."

Xu Chun asked, "Why?"

Wang Mengxiang babbled a lot, and it boiled down to the fact that Mou Qinzhi and Fu Yinghua lived in such a nice house, and there was no shortage of drivers and servants around them, but their behavior seemed very cramped, they never socialized with others, and always cared about their lives. In his own yard, he doesn't look like a rich man at all, but looks like a countryman living in a rich man's house.

Another point is that Mou Haiyuan rarely came to visit his parents. In Wang Mengxiang's vague memory, he had never seen Mou Haiyuan at all.

Xu Chun then asked several residents who had an impression of the Mou family, and got another clue. The accents of Mou Qinzhi and Fu Yinghua were not from Hanxing.

A filial son never visits his parents, but his parents are from Fucheng, but their accent is wrong. What's going on?

Xu Chun immediately informed Mingshu of the information he found.

Ming Shu has returned from Changchun Cemetery and arrived at Mou Haiyuan's residence.

In eight years, the property management has changed two. The current property management said that since they took over, the villa has been empty, neither sold nor returned to live.

The door was opened, and a long-term closed smell rushed in. The furnishings in the house were all dusty, and there was no sign of being stepped on.

In this house, Mingshu did not find anything related to Mou Qinzhi and Fu Yinghua.

In other words, not only did their filial sons not sweep their graves, sell the houses they lived in, but they didn't even leave their relics behind.

Mou Haiyuan's "personal design" collapsed very thoroughly.

But if the two people in the tomb were not Mou Haiyuan's parents in the first place, and Mou Haiyuan's filial piety was all for the outside world to see, then there would be a reasonable explanation for these contradictory facts.

"Go check the household registration again." Mingshu said: "Also, Mou Haiyuan hired drivers and servants for his parents back then. Since they live together with servants, there must be intersections, and these servants may know the truth that Mou Haiyuan is hiding."

When Mingshu was directing the investigation in Fucheng, Xiao Yuan sent someone to bring the important witness Hu Chengyi to Dongye City, and learned one thing during the conversation with him——

More than 20 years ago, Master Yuchen rescued a young man who fell off a cliff at the foot of Qiyue Mountain.
