    The world's first crowdsourcing-driven asian bl novel translation community

    In the Nancheng Bureau, in the office area of ​​the temporary task force upstairs, all the people looked serious and raced against time.

    Many people stayed up all night last night. For the case that happened in the early hours of this morning, various results and analysis reports have been completed overtime and placed on the desk of the task force.

    Zhuang Yi rushed to the TV station at 6 in the morning to record the new program on the rule of law. The program was broadcast at 10 in the morning and re-broadcasted at 12. After the recorded program was broadcast, the phone on Tian Ming's desk began to ring. nonstop.

    It is now 12:30 noon, and another report call came in.

    Tian Ming continued to record with a serious expression, "Hey, hello, is it lunch time today? Is it called Ruyi Restaurant? The specific location is..."

    "Well, are you sure it's the person in the portrait? He ran out after he was discovered, right? Do you have some video data over there?"

    "There's a monitoring of the hotel, right? We'll check it out. You said this guest is a regular at your place? Can you recall the time he ate at your place in the last few months?"

    "Okay, thank you for providing clues, we will send people over to conduct a detailed investigation later."

    Tian Ming hung up the phone, recorded the time and content of the call in the record book, and then asked Zhang Ziqi to communicate with the branch and sent someone over to understand the situation.

    This is the 34th report call today. From the beginning, it was unreliable and boundless, and now more and more people feel that the murderer is about to be found.

    Tian Ming finished the record, turned his head and said to Zhang Ziqi: "Professor Zhuang's program has a good response this time, and he has revised and supplemented his last theory. Although I don't understand it well, it makes people feel that the theory in it is very good. Bullshit."

    The police officer under him also said: "The expert is worthy of being an expert. The case we had no clue before is about to be solved now. It would be great if we could catch that bastard as soon as possible, and everyone could rest for a few days. "

    Others in the office agreed.

    "I didn't believe in these psychological analyses before, but now it seems that it is very helpful for arrest."

    "Thanks to Professor Zhuang for synthesizing the testimony of two eyewitnesses, the information should be sufficiently detailed."

    Listening to these words of praise, Song Wen remained silent.

    Tian Ming didn't know, but he knew clearly that these reasonings were all the analysis made by Lu Siyu before. Zhuang Yi is just a performer in front of the stage, like an actor who recites his lines diligently, and summarizes the news he heard. The real power is Lu Siyu, but Lu Siyu doesn't want to show off, so he Help him keep a secret.

    The time soon arrived at 5 o'clock in the afternoon, and Tian Ming answered the hotline for a long time. Although the name of the murderer has not yet been known, many people have claimed to have seen him in different places.

    According to the report call, the police retrieved several camera records, and found the figure of the suspected murderer in them.

    Now, the perverted serial killer who has plagued the Nancheng police for months is finally about to surface.

    Fu Linjiang and Song Wen began to mark on the map. After combining the four murders and the current location of the murderer, a more detailed scope of activities was outlined.

    Song Wen frowned at the map and studied: "These places are very close to the port..."

    Although air and land transportation are more developed now, sea transportation still plays an irreplaceable role in Nancheng's economy, especially for many trade commodities that are inconvenient for air transportation and cannot be landed, the cost price of sea transportation has always been low.

    Nancheng Port, one of the transportation hubs in Nancheng, is a comprehensive port for both businessmen and citizens. There are passenger transport, freight transport, and fishing here. Hundreds of large and small ships come to the port every day at the wharf.

    In order to facilitate transportation, there are many means of transportation on the port, including multiple night buses...

    On the map, Song Wen connected Nancheng Port with several crime sites. The graphics on the map looked like a beam of rays emanating from the port.

    Many ships dock at the port at night, so workers also work day and night shifts. Although a lot of work is now done by hoisting trucks, some manual work is still required.

    "The murderer may be working in the port." Song Wen told several other people about this discovery, "We'd better pay attention to that side."

    Tian Ming looked at the map: "Oh, it's really possible. We have strictly inspected the inland part before. Since this port is on the edge of the area map, we haven't visited it yet. Let's get in touch and get a job at the wharf. list of all workers."

    Fu Linjiang also agreed with Song Wen's opinion, but he was still a little worried: "However, there are a lot of people coming and going at the port, and we can't be sure right now whether the murderer lives here or is a boatman and sailor who travels with the ship. He is from outside the city, and he will come by boat soon, which will increase the difficulty of investigation."

    A few people just said this, Zhu Xiao stuck his head out: "Song team Tian team, an old man came downstairs, saying that there is a clue to the case and wants to report it, and he is filling out the form there."

    Song Wen and Tian Ming raised their heads when they heard this. They received a lot of calls from the hotline for a long time, but this was the first one who came to visit.

    Tian Ming rubbed his hands excitedly: "Let's go, Team Song, let's go downstairs and have a look."

    In the interrogation room downstairs, a bald old man who looked to be in his 60s was waiting there. Song Wen took his registration form. This man was Xie Dongqin, 63 years old this year, and his registered occupation was the regional manager of Yuanshan Freight Company. .

    Tian Ming verified Xie Dongqin's identity and information, and Song Wen asked him, "Your company's location is..."

    The old man said: "At Nancheng Port, our company undertakes part of the loading, unloading and transportation of goods by sea."

    The place is right!

    Tian Ming asked eagerly, "What clues and information are you trying to provide?" After asking this, he didn't forget to tap, "It's a real-name report now, so you can't talk nonsense."

    "That's natural, I will be responsible for my words. The clue I want to provide is about the recent serial murder case..." Xie Dongqin swallowed nervously, "I want to report my nephew, Xie Jianing. I suspect, He's the perpetrator of the latest serial murder case..."

    All of a sudden, everyone's spirits were lifted. For the first time, they knew the killer's name.

    If the information said by the old man is true, then they are very close to the murderer.

    When Song Wen heard this, he gestured towards the observation room on the side. Fu Linjiang and Zhang Ziqi, who were waiting there, immediately began to search for information. Soon, the relevant information of Xie Jianing was searched.

    Fu Linjiang began to check one by one: "The height is the same, the blood type is the same, the age is the same, and the appearance is very similar to the previous portrait." He and Zhang Ziqi looked at each other, and the two of them said in unison, "It is very likely this person."

    Zhang Ziqi compared the relationship between the suspect and the whistleblower, and frowned slightly: "Nephew? Is this old man a righteous extermination?"

    Most of the whistleblowers they usually see are other people and have fewer relatives, which has to make them hesitant.

    In the interrogation room at this time, the conversation continued.

    Tian Ming asked: "Tell me, do you think the murderer of these cases is the reason for your nephew... What unusual behavior does he usually do?"

    Xie Dongqin lowered his head and said: "My nephew, who is 27 years old this year, has been helping the port, doing some basic work such as handling. Then about eight months ago, the port was going to be semi-automated, so I let the workers go. I learned some skills to prepare for the transformation, but I didn't expect that my nephew was too stupid to learn anything. Other workers used to give me face and didn't have the same knowledge as him, but he delayed everyone's progress and joked about him At that time, I found that he was silent after being scolded, muttering to himself, and sometimes he would suddenly let out a terrible laugh."

    Song Wen listened, recorded these points, the change in work, the pressure in life, the ridicule of colleagues, these may be the reasons for the murderer's change.

    Xie Dongqin looked a little nervous, he wiped his forehead with the back of his right hand and continued: "Xie Jianing's night shift is the next day, and recently, one day he was supposed to take a vacation, but a worker suddenly fell ill and suddenly asked me for leave, and I I wanted to get him off work, but that day I found that I couldn't get in touch with him. I went to his house and knocked on the door, but no one opened the door. I had to go to someone else. I asked him why he wasn't there the next day, and he said Maybe I was too sleepy to hear. But later, I found that he was limping, and he said that he accidentally fell his leg. I went to check the time and found out that it was the day when the third murder happened. "

    Having said that, Fu Linjiang outside the interrogation room knocked on the door and handed in some relevant documents. Song Wen took a look at it first, and with just one glance, he recognized that the photo on the ID card should be the person they had been looking for.

    Song Wen then made a note on that file. Fu Linjiang immediately understood and went out of the interrogation room to get Xie Jianing's movements. As long as the real-name tickets, plane tickets, ferry tickets and other information purchased under his name would be retrieved.

    Song Wen handed the materials to Tian Ming, and asked Xie Dongqin, "What was your nephew growing up like? Is there anything special about it?"

    "My nephew... is also a pitiful person. When he was a child, he was born a celestial eunuch, and he spoke softly. His father took anger at his mother for this. Later, he grew up to his teenage years and did not change his voice. His father disliked the shame, so he went to the country to find the goddess. He didn't know what to drink for him, which made his voice hoarse. His voice is still hoarse now, and he usually makes a heavy breathing sound when he works. His father was a heavy drinker, and he beat their mother and daughter when he drank..."

    When Xie Dongqin said this, he hesitated for a while, and finally said: "When he was a teenager, his father once drank alcohol and accidentally beat her mother to death. Later, the court sentenced it and dealt with it as a family dispute. , so he locked up his father for three years. In those three years, he lived in my house, he was honest, and he didn’t like to talk. He just took care of eating and going to school every day.”

    "After his father was released from prison, I sent him back. But his father married a concubine again, and my nephew was their punching bag. Later, my nephew graduated from high school and could not work outside for long. My brother let him Got a job under me, until last year...my brother went to jail for a fight again. The family business fell on my nephew."

    Having said this, Xie Dongqin sighed: "This nephew of mine is a bit stupid, but he is just a bit stupid, and he can't do anything for long. I follow the principle of helping my relatives if they can help me, and I take care of myself. Boy, I was kind enough to let him be a porter under me. But who would have thought..."

    Song Wen continued to record the unfortunate childhood, the father's domestic violence, and the fact that he once witnessed his mother die in front of him.

    Xie Dongqin continued: "I... After I watched TV at noon today, my wife and I were terrified, so I wanted to come to the police station to ask... I'm also quite scared now, alas, then... the child is really I'm usually quite honest, and I can't tell that he is a murderer at all, but the information is too consistent, especially the portrait... I think it's just after my nephew..."

    Now, almost all the information is correct.

    Song Wen got up seriously and said, "Now we also suspect that your nephew may be the suspect in this case. Thank you for your information, and we hope that you will further cooperate with the police. Do you know where your nephew might be now?"

    Xie Dongqin nodded again and again: "Before I came, I called my nephew and asked him where he was. He said he was at home. At that time, his tone was a little flustered. I... I can take you there now... …”

    Song Wen asked, "Is there anyone else in his family?"

    "His stepmother is my brother and sister, right? However, I haven't seen her for a while." Xie Dongqin said.

    "Please provide a phone number, we will try to contact her." Tian Ming said.

    Xie Dongqin immediately gave the phone number, Tian Ming tried to dial it, then shook his head at Song Wen, the phone was turned off.

    Song Wen asked here, and drew a circle on the stepmother's name on the character relationship map he drew. He suddenly thought of the so-called first case that Lu Siyu once told him. The biological father was in prison, and the stepmother lived with him. So is this stepmother still alive? And wouldn't this be the first murder he committed?

    The clues asked here, it is enough to confirm that Xie Jianing is the person they are looking for. The next step is to arrest the suspect.

    Song Wen and Tian Ming looked at each other, Tian Ming understood and walked out of the interrogation room to assemble the police officers, ready to dispatch the police.

    Song Wen lowered his head and pondered for a moment, then got up and came out to catch up with Tian Ming: "I don't think Xie Jianing will be at home, or he may have fled, but there should be some relevant evidence at home, so I still have to run. Xie Dongqin's words are not clear. You can't believe it until it's confirmed."

    Tian Ming said: "Then how should the Song team arrange it?"

    Song Wenlue pondered: "I'll wait for the team leader to go to the suspect's house to search first. You take a team to the dock where he works to find out the situation."

    Tian Ming suddenly thought of something: "There are many boats in this place at the pier. You said, will he flee by water?" The people at the Nancheng pier are so noisy, if the murderer wants to take advantage of the chaos to go out by boat, it will be difficult for them to find.

    Song Wen frowned and said, "The murderer just committed the crime last night and was still in the city at noon today. After Xie Dongqin reported it, I asked Fu Linjiang to retrieve the ticket purchase information under the ID card. There is no feedback yet, that is to say, He hasn't bought a passenger ticket yet. If he's on another ship...he's just a lower-level worker on a wharf, he might not be able to escape without anyone else's help. Anyway, we'll be prepared."

    Tian Ming responded and went out to assemble the team.

    Song Wen thought about it for a while and called Lu Siyu again. After a while, the phone was connected. Song Wen fed him, and then asked Lu Siyu, "Are you awake? Have you eaten dinner?"

    On the other end of the phone, Lu Siyu said, "Well, I woke up a long time ago and cooked two dishes by myself. When can you come back?"

    "I won't be able to come back in a while. We found a suspected suspect here, determined his residence, and will call the police soon. I'm afraid you're worried, so I'll let you know." Song Wen was a little hesitant about telling Lu Siyu. , but I was afraid that he would break through on his own like last time, so let him vent first.

    Lu Siyu on the opposite side of the phone was also excited: "I found it? Do you want to go there? Where is his address? I'll meet you in the past."

    "Well, wait for me to send the address, don't act rashly, and when I arrive, act with everyone." Song Wen was afraid of this little ancestor, and after thousands of instructions, followed the others. police car.

    At six o'clock in the evening, next to an old community in Nancheng, the sky was bright and red, as if it had been burned by fire.

    At this time, three police cars and eight police officers gathered not far from Xie Jianing's residence to carry out the final equipment reorganization and prepare to carry out arrest operations. After many days of investigation, the suspect was finally locked down today, and everyone was excited and a little nervous.

    Lu Siyu was rarely obedient this time. He didn't go by himself, so he waited obediently nearby. Song Wen and him met first, and took a body armor for him to put on. This batch of body armor is a new type of equipment that the Municipal Bureau has just introduced. , which is much lighter and thinner than the past, and the bulletproof effect is stronger. Song Wen taught him how to wear it while helping him fasten the buckle around his waist.

    "This is the first time you have participated in a group roundup. As a police officer, this level cannot be bypassed. This time, there is only one murderer, and the action is well prepared. It stands to reason that there will not be too much danger, so let you come and observe, The trainee police officer does not have a gun, so you should just be the backup support."

    As a policeman, Song Wen could not stop Lu Siyu and would not let him participate in the pursuit for a lifetime, but he must do his best to ensure his safety.

    "Are you sure the suspect has a gun?" Lu Siyu asked curiously. He was wearing a white, slightly thicker shirt today. With this black body armor, he had a more abstinence temperament. Today's action, a little eager to try.

    "Not yet, but most of the murderers who kill several people in a row are extremely vicious, and they will be prepared. We are always right to guard against the slightest." The waist is really thin to abnormal.

    Lu Siyu lowered his head and fiddled with him, as quiet as a well-behaved smooth-haired rabbit. When Song Wen approached him, he suddenly stretched out his pink tongue and licked his lips. Song Wen worked hard to stabilize his mind, and said sternly: "You must obey the command later, you are behind, don't rash if you have nothing to do, safety first."

    Lu Siyu asked in a low voice, "What about you?"

    Song Wendao: "I am the leader, and I always have to lead the way and rush ahead. Don't worry, I will be careful. I have never lost a single duel or a group fight."

    Lu Siyu looked at the posture and said, "It looks like he's going to hunt." He and Song Wen had also rounded up the murderer in Luning before, but at that time, most of his companions were stragglers, but now they are A group of heavily armed police.

    Song Wen thought for a while: "Almost, the murderer is our prey."

    Speaking of which, a team of people is ready to complete. They followed Xie Dongqin to the door of a residential house.

    Xie Dongqin pointed from a distance to the door of Unit 3 in front: "This is the place, room 603. My nephew usually lives here." The number of floors in this house is not high, and the sixth floor is the top floor.

    Song Wen looked back at the police officers behind him and said, "Okay, Lu Siyu, Wang Chen, the two of you are guarding here, and the others follow me up."

    Lu Siyu was stunned for a moment, and asked softly, "I'll stay downstairs?" He thought Song Wen would take him upstairs, even if it wasn't the first echelon, it had to be the second echelon. I didn't expect this observation to be just downstairs.

    Song Wen said sternly: "Of course, this location is very critical, maybe the suspect is moving nearby, maybe he will escape, you must pay attention to safety." Then Song Wensai gave him a walkie-talkie, "You take this and contact us at any time. "While getting close to Lu Siyu, he whispered three words to him, "Be good."

    Lu Siyu hugged the walkie-talkie and said "Oh..." helplessly.

    He also understands Song Wen's arrangement. He doesn't have a gun. If something happens, he might need someone else's protection. It's right to keep him here at this time. It's just that feeling that makes him feel like an adult. Children staying at home.

    After explaining to him, Song Wen went upstairs with a group of heavily armed police officers.

    When they disappeared at the entrance of the building, Wang Chen sat beside the flower bed at the door, "Si Yu, don't be so nervous, come and sit, they'll be down in a while, and there will be news in the intercom when you come back."

    Wang Chen is a police officer of the second team here. He is a few years older than Lu Siyu. He has won some fighting championships in the past, and he is very good at it. He has a gun. Song Wen left him here, feeling like he was a bodyguard for Lu Siyu. Wang Chen had participated in many events, large and small, before, and he was considered to have experienced a hundred battles, but at this time his face was relaxed.

    Lu Siyu sighed, then looked down at the walkie-talkie in his hand, but didn't speak.

    Wang Chen turned his head and asked Xie Dongqin: "Old man, you made a special trip to report the murderer today?"

    Xie Dongqin didn't watch out for him suddenly talking to him, and hurriedly said: "Well..."

    Wang Chen said again: "I heard that it is your nephew."

    Xie Dongqin said: "It's really unfortunate for our family to have such a nephew at home."

    Wang Chen asked him again: "Listen to the accent, your hometown is from Ningzhou?"

    Xie Dongqin nodded: "From Gancheng." After speaking, he raised his left hand and looked at his watch.

    Lu Siyu also looked down at his mobile phone, it was 6:17 now.

    Wang Chen seemed to be bored downstairs, took out a cigarette from his pocket, and waved at Xie Dongqin. Xie Dongqin took the cigarette, lit it, and took a breath.

    Wang Chen also ordered one himself, and asked him casually, "Then you reported your nephew, it is considered a righteous death, can you explain it to your family later?"

    Xie Dongqin dodged his brows and said, "Who told him to do such a depraved thing..."

    Wang Chen sighed: "Your nephew... It's true, he killed so many women..."

    Xie Dongqin sighed and let out a puff of smoke: "Yeah, he deserves to be arrested." He paused, raised his head and asked Wang Chen, "Do you know what he is like... how many years will he be sentenced to in the end?"

    Wang Chen said: "Killing so many people must be a death sentence." He didn't know why the old man asked such a question, maybe he was still feeling lucky?

    "Death?" Xie Dongqin's body trembled, as if he was about to fall to the ground. Lu Siyu was calm and helped him from the side.

    "Thank you." Xie Dongqin stood firm, he wanted to push Lu Siyu's hand away. But the little policeman pulled him still, and his long white fingers hurt him a little.

    Lu Siyu raised his head and frowned at the window 603 upstairs. According to the time, Song Wen should have entered by now. In that room 603, what will be waiting for him?
