Chapter 596 Lunch
There were still two or three hours before dawn, so everyone went back to their rooms to catch up on their sleep.
What happened just now is quite dramatic and not easy to deal with. An autistic person cannot use normal people's thinking to condemn it. If the police come to call the police, they can only give verbal education at most. Otherwise, the parents will pay some money to settle the matter.
Chen Yi was wondering whether the ghost in white that Tan Dong saw back then was Wu Rui.
It shouldn't be wrong.
Since someone who likes voyeurism cannot do it just once or twice, he will become addicted, so there is a reasonable explanation for the rumor that Yunshui Inn is haunted all year round.
Of course, it is impossible to be discovered again and again. Being discovered once in ten peeping times is enough to support the popularity of the haunting. It is precisely because it is impossible to be discovered again and again that Yunshui Inn has always been open. Otherwise, I am afraid it would have been closed due to pressure. .
This indirectly proves that Tan Dong’s words are credible.
But what about the hanging man in the dead tree outside the town? Is it also Wu Rui’s work?
Chen Yi believed that Tan Dong had indeed seen it and that it really existed.
The ghost in white is Wu Rui peeping out of the window. What happened to the hanged ghost?
Given that the hanging ghost is highly consistent with the death scene in this case, it can be speculated that it was imitated by an autistic person.
Wu Rui lived in Yunshui Inn with his parents all year round, so he must have seen the murder scene eight years ago, and the "behavior" of imitating the corpse was quite reasonable.
"These... don't seem to be of any help in solving the murder case."
Chen Yi was lying on the bed preparing to fall asleep. His mind was not idle, thinking about what happened last night and early this morning.
It's that Wu Changchun, who seems to be becoming more and more suspicious.
Are you so happy to admit that your son is outside the window just because you want to calm things down and don't want to make the matter too big?
From another perspective, let’s be bolder and assume that Wu Changchun is the murderer or an insider. What he is most worried about is not the police coming to the door, but his son who lives with him day and night.
If the son is normal and can communicate, that's fine. The problem is that the son is abnormal and cannot communicate, so if you ask questions in a targeted manner, it is very likely that flaws will be exposed.
There is no chapter about Wu Rui in the file, which shows that the criminal police who handled the case chose to ignore the autistic patient and did not try to pry anything out of the other party's mouth.
Is it possible to try something that you didn’t do back then?
However, Wu Changchun probably wouldn't give him this opportunity unless he used the powers of the special case team to forcefully intervene and find a highly professional psychiatrist to communicate with Wu Rui.
"Isn't it a little too adventurous?"
Chen Yi was worried that doing so would cause adverse consequences. Before falling asleep, he made a decision to go through the entire case first, including Shuishi Town, Xigui County, Jingcheng, and finally return.
The confidence of investigators comes from their grasp of clues. Currently, the special case team needs more clues and cannot be too anxious.
It was eight o'clock in the morning when he opened his eyes. Chen Yi got up and washed himself, then went downstairs to the hall to have breakfast.
When the new five people were already on the first floor, they got up relatively early and were waiting for Chen Yi.
It doesn't matter whether you get up early or late, but you must get up earlier than the leader.
The five of them are quite conscious.
Chen Yi sat down and asked the boss to serve breakfast.
There is no sign of the college student yet, so he probably hasn't gotten up yet. After a lot of trouble in the early morning, the other four people probably won't get up too early.
Not long after, the boss brought porridge and rice to the table, apologized again for what happened in the early morning, and said that he would be strictly disciplined in the future.
The special case team was polite and would not take issue with the eccentric behavior of an autistic patient.
Boom!
Boom!
Boom!
At this time, the rhythmic knocking sounded again, not from upstairs, but from the kitchen.
The boss Wu Changchun frowned and left the hall quickly, followed by angry curses.
"After you put away your hammer, you just play with the knife, right? Is it dangerous?"
"Give me the knife! Go back to your room!"
"come out!"
Accompanied by the scolding, Wu Changchun dragged his son out of the kitchen and upstairs, and quickly disappeared from the sight of several people.
Chen Yi ignored it, withdrew his gaze and picked up his chopsticks to eat.
Repetitive stereotyped behaviors are one of the symptoms of autism. This is also considered a different kind of morbid obsessive-compulsive disorder, which is similar to morbid mysophobia. For example, morbid mysophobia will wash hands every few minutes and cannot control itself.
The difference is that mysophobia knows that their behavior is wrong but has no ability to change it, while autistic people only care about their own comfort and think that it is right if they feel comfortable.
"Poor, what will Wu Rui do in a few decades?" The speaker was Cheng Hanjun, referring to the death of Wu Changchun and his wife.
I’m afraid welfare institutions also keep a distance from autistic people, right?
It would be better to send him directly to a mental hospital.
Forensic doctor Su Ying didn't want to talk about this topic, so she mentioned Wang Yingjie: "The relationship between those college students should not be that good."
The judgment was accurate, and several other people thought so too.
It’s all in Wang Yingjie’s words.
Ji Xin nodded: "Sister Su is right. His thinking was obviously a little confused at the time, but the words he said...when people are mentally disturbed, the words they say are often more truthful than those spoken by a drunk person."
After saying that, he turned his head and glanced at the stairs to make sure that the college student had not gone downstairs, and continued in a low voice: "First of all, Peng Xiao. Wang Yingjie said that Peng Xiao was on the second generation rich list. The word 'Pong' is not a nice word. It is a kind of ridicule. and dissatisfaction.
Second, he likes Fan Wen, which is true, and the subsequent conversation between Fan Wen and Zhou Junjie proves this.
Finally, and most importantly, Wang Yingjie asked Zhou Junjie when he would give the money. This was a bit intriguing. What money would he give?
From his conversation and clothes, it can be judged that the car outside the door belongs to Zhou Junjie, while Wang Yingjie is more like a grassroots person. His family should not be rich, to put it bluntly, he is a poor person.
A poor person asks a rich person for money, and he is so righteous, just because of the good relationship? "
After the voice fell, several people were silent for a while, and Qin Fei proposed other possibilities: "Maybe he owes debts? Rich second-generations also have times when they are short of money. After all, it is the family's money, not their own, and they cannot be used at will.
Wang Yingjie looks poor, but that's just his appearance. You can't judge a person by his appearance. For example, if he works or gets a scholarship, it is not a problem to save tens of thousands. "
He Xin did not deny: "It is also a possibility. The strangest thing is his state. How could he be so scared that he was incoherent and mentally ill because he saw Wu Rui outside the window? "
At this point, Teng Dabin, who had just eaten an egg, blurted out: "Did you do something wrong? As the saying goes, if you don't do something wrong, you don't have to be afraid of ghosts knocking on the door. Even the most timid person would not react so excessively. There must be something wrong.
How about checking it out? Maybe there is a new case? "
He Xin turned his head: "Brother Bin, you are a bit exaggerated. You can't suspect Wang Yingjie of criminal cases just because he was easily scared by ghosts, right?"
"Ah?" Teng Dabin said cutely, "Am I wrong? Chen Yi likes to doubt, I learned it from him."
Chen Yi looked at Su Ying: "What did Sister Su say?"
Su Ying said: "There is indeed a problem. From a forensic point of view, there is a possibility that he ate something he shouldn't have eaten, which led to the amplification of hallucinations and increased fear. I think we can ask him when he wakes up. If there is any doubt, we will investigate."
Teng Dabin: "Is it poisonous mushrooms? Did they order this dish? We ate mushrooms last night... That's not right. We are fine. It's normal.
Maybe he was unlucky and happened to eat that poisonous mushroom?"
Su Ying: "Maybe so. "
She has a rigorous personality. For any question that cannot be proven or denied for the time being, all questions will be pending for investigation, even if they are not particularly reasonable.
Breakfast ended quickly, and everyone left Yunshui Inn and stepped into Shidu Town to admire the past history.
Decades ago, Shidu Town was shining brightly overnight due to the discovery of oil. Unfortunately, the grand banquet suddenly ended, leaving only empty ruins.
Those once busy oil wells now have no rusty iron frames left. Only the dilapidated walls on both sides of the street weakly tell the past glory in the wind and sand.
Anything of some value has been taken away, and even the roof has traces of being lifted away by humans.
In those days, everything was in ruins, and it was normal to eliminate waste and choose secondary use.
Compared with the night, Shidu Town is more desolate, and occasionally the wind blows, making a rustling sound on the ground.
"Prosperity is fast, and decline is fast." Looking at the surrounding scene, Chen Yi sighed, "At that time, the country was too anxious, so it was inevitable that there would be things like killing the chicken to get the eggs, hoping for rapid development. ”
He Shixin walked over to check the thickness of the wall and the building structure, and said: "What the innkeeper said is right. The safety of these buildings is problematic. More haste, less speed. It is not impossible that the house collapsed in the early years.
Is this case related to Shidu Town?"
He asked the question, combining the case with Shidu Town.
When the question was thrown out, Qin Fei gave a logical speculation: "The three deceased were from Jingcheng, but the place of death was in Shidu Town. Why did the murderer choose this place and hang the body near Yunshui Inn? It is worth thinking about it.
Since the deceased can be disappeared quietly, why not deal with it more cleanly? Burying nearby is better than exposing it in broad daylight, right? This is not afraid of anyone calling the police, rampant and confident.
From the results, his confidence is not arrogant. The police have been investigating for so long and have not found out, and they can't even give a clear explanation of the process of the crime. "
He Shixin asked: "What do you think? "
Qin Fei said: "Either this case is related to Shidu Town, such as the ancestors lived in Shidu Town, or the murderer lives nearby or has relatives and friends living nearby."
He Shixin: "Is it referring to Yunshui Inn?"
Qin Fei: "Not only Yunshui Inn, but also the villagers nearby are suspects, right?"
He Shixin nodded slightly: "Whether the body in Shidu Town is real or fake, since the murderer chose this place, there must be a reason. It can't be a random selection?"
Cheng Hanjun interrupted: "It's hard to say, what if the murderer really chose it randomly? Letting Jingcheng's body strangely appear in Shidu Town has greatly increased the difficulty of the investigators' handling of the case.
I think if there is a breakthrough in this case, we still have to start from the interpersonal relationships of the three deceased.
Obviously, this case is a premeditated homicide, and the possibility of random killing is almost zero. Once the motive is found, the identity of the murderer will also be known. "
Several people were silent.
What Cheng Hanjun said was exactly what the criminal police who handled the case eight years ago had been doing. If it was so easy to find the connection and then lead to the motive, why would they have to wait until now?
However, this matter is still the focus of the investigation. When we arrive in Jingcheng in a few days, the situation of the three dead people will be re-investigated to prevent the investigators of that year from making omissions.
There is a gap in ability between criminal police and criminal police, which is understandable.
Chen Yineng solved the Jiangcheng case, and I believe he will not let this case continue to be an unsolved case.
After walking around for more than half an hour, several people returned the same way.
There is nothing to see in the broken town.
Back at Yunshui Inn, the Land Rover was still parked at the door. After entering the hall, there was still no sign of the four college students. It seemed that they had not woken up yet.
It was not yet ten o'clock.
It was normal for young people to sleep until twelve o'clock.
"Just stay for one day. After lunch, we will go to Shuishi Town in the afternoon." Chen Yi finally decided to save time.
The crime scene was handled by the Shuishi Town Police Station. Putting aside the files, we need to ask face to face.
There must be a difference between face-to-face chat and file records.
The inn owner Wu Changchun came over and asked with a smile: "Is there nothing to see in Shidu Town? Are you still staying tonight?"
Chen Yi smiled and replied: "There is nothing to see. I won't stay tonight. I will leave after lunch."
Wu Changchun nodded: "Okay, tell me what you want to eat. The inn doesn't have delicacies from the mountains and the sea, but chicken, duck, fish and meat are still not lacking. It's just that there are fewer guests recently, so the freezing time is a little longer. It doesn't affect it. The quality is absolutely guaranteed."
He was honest. He didn't mention this yesterday, probably out of apology.
Chen Yi: "Okay, sorry to bother you, boss. Please make us a pot of tea first."
"You're welcome. Wait a moment." Wu Changchun left, and only six people from the special case team were left in the hall.
Soon, the hot tea was served, and the six people drank and chatted, looking towards the stairs from time to time.
The reason why they chose to finish lunch before leaving was to wait for Wang Yingjie to wake up, and to hear what he had to say, and what frightened him so much.
More than half an hour later, there was movement on the stairs. Zhou Junjie, Peng Xiao, and Fan Wen, who had just gotten up, came down and asked the boss for the menu to prepare for dinner.
Wang Yingjie was not seen.
Noticing the six people's gazes, Zhou Junjie said that he had knocked on the door, but the person was not awake yet, and he would call later.
The knock on the door might not wake Wang Yingjie, but the ringing of the phone would definitely do.
In a blink of an eye, it was almost noon, and Chen Yi and the other six took the menu to order food. Zhou Junjie and the others had breakfast and lunch together, and had gone upstairs to their rooms.
It seemed that they wanted to wait for Wang Yingjie to wake up, solve Wang Yingjie's problems first, and then go out for a walk.
What happened in the early morning was really a bit scary, mainly because Wang Yingjie looked crazy, which was more like a ghost than a ghost.
The dishes were served, and the six people started eating.
Second floor.
It was already half past twelve, and Wang Yingjie had not woken up yet, which made Zhou Junjie and the other two lose patience.
"He sleeps too much, why don't we go and wake him up, is the door locked?"
In the room, Fan Wen spoke.
Zhou Junjie said: "It's not locked, I just closed the door in the early morning, maybe he was really scared and slept more deeply."
Fan Wen: "It's almost time, go and wake him up."
Zhou Junjie had no objection and stood up: "Okay, then you wait a while."
