Criminal Investigation Notes
Chapter 107:
At three o'clock in the morning, Wang Xiaopei got off the night bus.
As the bus drove away, everything became quiet.
Wang Xiaopei stood at the bus stop and looked at the dark streets around. Only the station name sign of the bus stop and a few street lights not far away were lit.
The familiar road in the past has suddenly become unfamiliar.She also didn't think, just a few hours later, why the city looks completely different, like a different face.
Wang Xiaopei regretted that instead of spending a few hours in the hotel dormitory, he chose to go home.She hesitated for a while, tightened the neckline of her dress, walked forward quickly, and even started to run at small steps.
The Mid-Autumn Festival was approaching, and the day was getting even later. At this time, the sky was still dim, and some dim starlight could be seen. Through the raised collar, she could smell the lingering smell of hot pot on her body.The smell seemed to be soaking her body in various spices for a long time. She made up her mind that after returning home, she must not be lazy. She had to take a bath, change her pajamas, and go to sleep.
Wang Xiaopei is employed in a 24-hour chain hotpot restaurant. She has just turned 22 this year. She was promoted to the foreman at a young age. Today, it is her turn to night shift from 10 pm to 8 am the next morning.The salary of the hot pot restaurant is not very high, and it is very hard, but she has a very happy life. As long as she works here, she belongs to this city. After a few years, she saves some money and buys a house. Maybe she can stay here. .
At 2:30 this morning, the hot pot restaurant suddenly went out of power, and there was no sign of calling. The manager temporarily decided to let them off work.
After bidding farewell to several local colleagues, Wang Xiaopei and several local colleagues walked to their accommodation. She rented a house that was cheap. She chose a shared apartment on the outskirts of the city. Suddenly it closed in advance. Wang Xiaopei didn't think much about it, and went to take the night bus home.
She has been working late all year round and has long been accustomed to being more vigorous at night than during the day. She plugged in headphones and listened to music along the way. She didn’t feel lonely or scared. But when she got out of the car, Wang Xiaopei’s heart grew more and more deviated. .
Suddenly she was the only one on this road.
It seems that only herself is left in the world.
It was pitch black all around, even the stars were invisible in the sky, and the air seemed to have been splashed with thick ink, and only the rustling of leaves blowing in the wind and low insect sounds were heard.
No one can be seen on the side of the road, and the common breakfast stalls in the past have not yet appeared, especially when she walks through an unfinished construction site, this sense of loneliness scares her.
There were no street lights in this section, and the buildings that were built were cast by moonlight with huge shadows, and the wind blew through the empty building, making a strange sound.In the darkness, there seemed to be countless eyes staring at her.
In this dark and endless early morning, all the senses are infinitely magnified.
Wang Xiaopei's hair was upside down, and he stood on the street looking around with some trepidation.She squeezed the phone in her hand and opened the taxi-hailing app. There was no car nearby.
Wang Xiaopei wondered whether to call his roommate and ask the roommate to pick her up.But she quickly dispelled the idea. It is now three o'clock in the morning, and her roommate is also a girl. Such behavior is beyond the scope of friendship.Moreover, the journey lasted only ten minutes, and when her roommate came over, she was almost there.
When Wang Xiaopei walked here now, there was no village in front of him, no shop behind, and no one could help her. He had to bite the bullet and walk down.
Suddenly, a voice came.
"Who?" Wang Xiaopei stopped suddenly and couldn't help but screamed. She heard a voice just now. The voice was like the "haha" sound of a large dog opening its mouth and panting rapidly, making her suspect that there was something in the dark. The dog was watching, ready to bite her.
Her eyes were big, black and white, filled with horror, and there was deep darkness around her. Then she listened quietly, and the sound stopped. She could only hear her pounding heartbeat and rapid breathing.
It should have been a mistake. Wang Xiaopei was relieved. After chanting a few bold words, she even wanted to hum a song to soothe herself. She stepped forward and wanted to walk through this area quickly.
At this moment, a gust of wind blew, and a black image in the wind was a huge bat flying out of the darkness.It was a beast that had been dormant for a long time, and suddenly rushed towards its prey.
Wang Xiaopei felt that someone pushed her, she was hit hard, she fell to the ground, a fist hit her shoulder, and then an elbow hit her ribs, and the bag in her hand was thrown out. She slammed into the ground with a bang, and then, the person kicked her body and head severely. For a while, Wang Xiaopei was completely dumbfounded. Stars appeared in front of him, and his mouth floated. Kind of strong rust smell.Just after taking a breath, the stomach was hit hard again, and the internal organs seemed to be turned over.
The continuous heavy blows removed her defenses, and Wang Xiaopei groaned in pain, trying to curl up and protect his head and face.
She knew that she had met a bad person. The other party was a man, not too tall, but she was very strong enough to crush her.After beating her a few times, the other party picked up her bag and mobile phone that had fallen on the ground. The contents in the bag were scattered, and he didn't care too much, but quietly took the bag in his hand.He did not leave either, obviously the robbery was not his purpose.
Wang Xiaopei gradually regained consciousness. She wanted to run, but her body was too heavy... The girl's heart was full of fear. She was still young, just after her 22nd birthday, and she felt like being watched by that person. A huge stone was pressed against her heart, and the girl cried helplessly, and murmured and pleaded.
"Help...Help... Let me go... The money I carry with me, my mobile phone, bank card...I will give you all..."
The man remained silent and looked down at her.
Wang Xiaopei did not dare to look at the person behind him, turned over, lay down on the ground, and struggled to crawl forward. There was that kind of sound behind him, which made her sound like a terrifying "ha...ha..." People who have been hungry for a long time suddenly face a meal.
The girl crawled forward, feeling helpless like a dying prey on the empty street in this early morning.
The figure in the darkness watched her climb a few steps, then pulled her feet up, limped, dragged her into the wild grass aside, her body ran over the dead grass, and she broke down. The voice of the person completely ignored her feelings, as if pulling a dead object, and drew an unremarkable bloodstain on the side of the road.
Just around a corner, the other party was impatient. She was pressed to the ground and slapped a few times until her tinnitus continued. Wang Xiaopei waved her arm desperately, and countless fists and feet fell on her. There seemed to be countless blades buried in the body.
In the darkness, no one knew her loneliness and fear.
Her eyes gradually became hazy, and she fainted...
After a while, Wang Xiaopei woke up. She might have been in a coma for a few seconds, or it might be ten minutes, or half an hour.She found that someone was taking off her stockings. This feeling made Wang Xiaopei feel colder and sicker.
After that, the stockings that had been taken off strangled her neck, and the stockings still took her own body temperature, rubbing her cheeks, and her hands gradually tightened and squeezed each other tightly. The air was thinning and decreasing little by little, Wang Xiaopei His nails weakly pulled the rope around his neck, his body trembled in pain, and there was no sound from his throat...
She was struggling to die, like a butterfly caught in a worm net.
Despair, then death...
A few hours later, the day will dawn, and this city is about to usher in a brand new day.At this moment, no one knew that a girl had died on the corner of a suburban street.
Song Wen Lu Siyu put on his clothes and rushed to the scene as quickly as possible.
This is the southeast of Nancheng. The crime scene is an abandoned and unfinished building, facing the street, without walls, and the building has not been completed. All the windows are left with openings, and the surroundings are erected. The billboards are isolated, and some of them are incomplete, allowing people to enter and exit at will.There are weeds growing on the waste grass beside the building. Many of them have withered in autumn, and the withered grass still carries morning dew.
It was almost six in the morning, and the sky was still dark. It had just begun to become a bit transparent. The scene had been protected by the police on duty who had just arrived. They said hello after seeing Song Wen coming: "Team Song!"
Fu Linjiang arrived a while earlier and went to understand the situation first. He introduced: "The corpse was found by the stall owner who went to the stall in the morning. He first found the items scattered on the ground, and then he found the corpse and called the police."
Song Wen nodded.
The corpse hadn't been covered up too much, so it was laid aside not far from the roadside, and it could be found only by looking at it with a probe.Because the corpse was fresh, there was no smell of corpse. On the contrary, there was a strong fragrance on the spot, like spraying a lot of perfume or spilling a bag of loose powder.
Song Wen carefully stepped past the debris and approached the scene of the crime. Lying in the grass was a fresh woman's corpse. The corpse spots and corpses had just begun to form. The dark red spots showed that the woman had suffered during her lifetime. Tortured and beaten.Somewhat peculiarly, a piece of clothing was covered on the female body's face, covering half of the woman's face.
Lu Siyu put on his gloves and looked down.The posture of the female corpse was very correct, the clothes on her body were neat, her hands were folded, and she was placed on her chest. If the ants and insects beside her had crawled on her pale skin, the whole person seemed to be asleep.
Her neck had been severed, and she was lying softly aside, like a dead swan.
Sometimes, human life is tenacious, and there are thousands of possibilities that can bloom, but sometimes, human life is extremely fragile. One thing that happens is like toppling a domino of dominoes, and it may happen. Chain reaction.
Before this morning, this woman probably wouldn't have thought that she would die like this on the streets of Nancheng in the early morning.
