Picking flowers (2)
Because of the close distance and driving, the two of them arrived at the hospital in a few minutes and met Fang Shunliang who had just come out at the door.
"Captain Xiao, why are you here?" Seeing Su Lihou behind Xiao Zhuo, she looked disgusted: "Why are you here too?"
Su Li didn't say anything, and Xiao Zhuo replied: "Something happened. How is your investigation going?"
"I asked, it's the director of the administrative department. I'm really not sure whether the two are related. Usually people in the hospital only dare to discuss things in private. I don't know when Pan Zheng heard about it, and then he said what he said before. But this person
It seems to have nothing to do with the case. He drank too much last night, went home and fell asleep. He was not called to the hospital until just now, and he looked hungover when he came."
"Where is Pan Zheng working?"
"The dispensing room on the first floor."
After Su Li heard this, she said hello to Xiao Zhuo and walked straight towards the dispensing room.
Fang Shunliang looked at her walking away and said, "This girl is really arrogant."
Xiao Zhuo chuckled: "Really? Isn't this case taken very seriously? Okay, let's go and have a look."
The pungent smell of disinfectant wafts from the shop floor, and the hospital hall with people coming and going is still dark and cool even in the daytime.
When the two arrived, Su Li was talking to the staff in the dispensing room: "So Pan just changed shifts with someone else yesterday?"
"Yes, he hasn't been feeling well these past two days. He couldn't handle the night shift, so he changed shifts with someone else."
Su Li glanced at the bare wall of the dispensing room and asked, "Do you have a duty schedule?"
"Yes, but our duty schedules are copied from the administrative department. The administrative department will post the scheduled shifts every month."
"Can you please take me to see it?"
"Well..." The man was a little embarrassed: "I still have something to do, so I'll ask someone to take you there."
"Sister Zhang, take these police comrades to the place where the shift schedule is posted." The man shouted to the elder sister who was cleaning up the garbage outside.
"Hey! Okay, comrade police, I will take you there."
Sister Zhang looks to be in her fifties and is wearing the clothes of a hospital cleaner. She packs the garbage and puts it in the cart while answering.
Xiao Zhuo looked at Su Li: "You came to the hospital to confirm whether Pan Zheng changed shifts yesterday? Then you are going to look at the schedule now because you suspect the murderer has seen it."
Su Li replied in a low voice: "Well, he deliberately chose to commit the murder when Pan Zheng was working the night shift."
Xiao Zhuo: "But he didn't expect that Pan Zheng changed shifts with someone else last night."
Su Li: "The duty list in the dispensing room was not posted, so the murderer might have seen it from somewhere else."
Several people followed Sister Zhang to the stairwell. Sister Zhang looked at Su Li and then at Xiao Zhuo and said in a loud voice: "Oh my God, are all the police comrades as handsome as you now?"
Su Li, Xiao Zhuo: "..."
Fang Shunliang sneered from behind, and Sister Zhang looked back at him and then back: "It doesn't seem to be the case."
Fang Shunliang: "..."
Sister Zhang spoke to Su Li next to her again: "I've heard people say that this business is hard and dangerous. Why do your family agree with what you do? How can you be so handsome and get hurt and disfigured?"
As she talked, she started to feel worried.
Su Li looked calm: "Fortunately, I can fight quite well."
Fang Shunliang immediately answered speechlessly: "I think you are quite capable of boasting."
Sister Zhang: "..." Then she looked at Xiao Zhuo on the right.
Xiao Zhuo glanced at Su Li, a smile flashed in his eyes, and after noticing Sister Zhang's gaze, he replied: "I'm pretty good at fighting too."
His voice was clear and crisp, with a bit of hoarseness, and his lazy tone sounded like a smile but not a smile. It sounded very clear in the stairwell.
Su Li blinked and the tips of her ears felt warm. She was a voice control, and Captain Xiao's voice just hit her mark.
"We're here, we're here." Sister Zhang led a few people up to the third floor. The corridor was very dark.
Fang Shunliang exclaimed: "Isn't this the administrative department?"
"Oh, yes, the administrative department is over there. They have arranged the hospital schedule and posted it here. Come and take a look." Sister Zhang pulled the electric cord in the corridor, and the light bulb flashed twice and then went dark:
"What's going on?"
Xiao Zhuo walked over and tried it too, but still got no response: "This light is broken, it should be due to poor contact."
"It's broken again. It was repaired not long ago, so why is it broken again?"
Su Li was leaning over to read the shift schedule, but when she heard their conversation, a picture suddenly flashed in her mind, and she stood up straight in an instant.
Fang Shunliang was looking at the schedule next to her, and was frightened by her actions: "You scared me, what are you doing? This Pan Zheng didn't just say, late shift!"
"Sorry." Su Li apologized and then looked at Sister Zhang: "When was this lamp repaired?"
Sister Zhang was confused and didn't know why she was asked this: "Ah? Just... just six or seven days ago."
"Do you know who you asked to fix it?"
"How do I know this? It seems that Ding Xiu found someone from a nearby hardware store."
Xiao Zhuo frowned: "Ding Xiu? Isn't she a nurse?"
"Yes, this lamp was broken for a long time and no one took care of it. She passed by here and didn't notice the water on the ground and almost fell down, so she asked someone to fix it. If you want to find someone, you can ask Ding Xiu.
!”
Fang Shunliang also realized something was wrong: "Ding Xiu is dead."
Sister Zhang opened her mouth wide and said loudly for a long time: "What? She is dead? How did she die?"
Xiao Zhuo glanced at Su Li who said nothing, then said to Sister Zhang that it was a problem and led the two of them out of the hospital.
Fang Shunliang: "What do you say now? If you can see the duty schedule, is the murderer from the hospital?"
Xiao Zhuo: "I can't say for sure. Everyone in the same department knows that he changed classes, and others haven't seen the motive yet."
Xiao Zhuo glanced at the dial on his wrist and said, "It's getting late. Let's go back to the team to have a meal and then touch it to see if Brother Wang and the others have noticed it."
On the road, only Xiao Zhuo and Fang Shunliang discussed the case from time to time, while Su Li, who was sitting in the back seat, kept looking down at the notebook in his hand.
After parking the car, the three people got out of the car and were about to go to the canteen when they heard Gao Jinbao's shout.
"Master Xiao, Sister Li, Director Li is waiting in the conference room..." Gao Jinbao was impartial and everyone shouted.
Fang Shunliang yawned: "What's going on?"
Gao Jinbao: "I don't know where the case leaked out. The case was reported on TV and newspapers. Now everyone in Ninghai City knows that there is a serial rapist and murderer. The province called Director Li."
Xiao Zhuo nodded to indicate that he understood, and led the people to the conference room.
When passing by the office, a group of people had just come back from outside. When they saw Su Li, who was following behind them with a frown, their eyes showed a bit of interest.
Xiao Zhuo and Qi Shan just nodded and said hello without stopping. After a few people walked away, the first team started chatting.
"Did you see that? With that frown on his face, he probably didn't do well in the second team."
"Well, who else can take care of her like we do? The few people in the second team can give her a drink."
Everyone in the city's criminal police team knows that there are not many normal people in the second team.
Wang Youzhi, who is almost fifty years old, is still working as a front-line criminal policeman. He does not want to move up or change jobs. He greets everyone with a smile every day, and no one knows what he is thinking.
Fang Shunliang, the most venomous person in the criminal police team, was attacked by men, women and children alike. Even the guard dog of the police team knew not to bark when they encountered him, otherwise they would definitely be betrayed.
Liu Ming, with his burly figure and sharp personality, could not find a more practical male detective than him. Things must be straight and documents must be arranged in order.
Gao Jinbao is a person who makes you wonder why he is happy every day. He smiles when he is praised and also laughs when he is criticized. Otherwise, it is a good thing that he is Fang Shunliang's apprentice. No one else can stand his master's mouth.
Xiao Zhuo, a seemingly normal person, well, just by looking at him, was only 26 years old when he was parachuted into the Criminal Police Team two years ago. His direct appointment as the second captain was met with suspicion and innuendo by many people. It was only later that he discovered that he was indeed the second captain.
He is truly worthy of his title. After all, no one can refute the title of the Desperate Saburo of the City Criminal Police Team.
Then he glanced at Zhou Ziyao and said jokingly: "Xiao Zhou, don't you feel bad?"
Zhou Ziyao frowned and did not respond. He continued to look at the interrogation records in his hand. The man also found it boring and said no more.
In the conference room, when a few people entered, the rest of the second team, the forensic doctor, and Bureau Li were all there. Su Li casually pulled up a stool and sat next to Zhong Ke.
Zhong Ke looked at her and handed over the autopsy report in her hand: "Do you want to see it?"
Su Li nodded and reached out to take it, then sat quietly aside and looked through the records.
Director Li started to speak after seeing everyone gathered: "The impact of this case is very bad. It is the third case in just one and a half months. Now the province also knows about it and urges the case to be solved as soon as possible. Everyone must act with urgency."
Hearing these words, everyone present except Xiao Zhuo and Su Li had expressions of embarrassment. Nowadays, traces and various identifications are very immature. Even if there are sperm spots remaining in the body of the deceased, they cannot be identified through DNA, making it very difficult to solve the case.
Fang Shunliang said unhappily: "Bureau Li, the guys from our second team haven't slept much in the past half month, and Team Xiao even more so. They run around outside every day and don't even have time to come to the team."
Director Li reassured: "I know your pressure and difficulties, and I will try my best to help you deal with it in the province, but this matter has been in the news, and citizens' sentiments must be taken seriously, and we have to find a way to solve it."
After a while, Xiao Zhuo said: "Okay, let's first review the investigation in the past few days and summarize the case. Brother Wang, let's start first."
Wang Youzhi put down the water glass and said: "The first victim's hometown is not here. Everyone at work said that she didn't talk much and didn't chat with people very much, so she didn't have any conflicts with anyone. If she was a guest,
Others don’t know either. Because of the special nature of his work, the neighbors where he lives don’t interact much.”
Fang Shunliang continued: "The second victim Jinbao and I were visiting, she worked in a department store, and her parents also worked. She lived alone in the previous house at home. The reason she moved out was because she was far from where she worked.
The place is close, and my parents are forcing me to get married. At the company, I had a conflict with a colleague, but the other person was a woman. I have almost nothing in common with the first victim except that they are both women."
Wang Youzhi spoke again: "Today's victims are a couple, and they both work in the hospital. Neighbors in the family home said that the two of them have a good relationship on weekdays and are friendly to outsiders. It's hard to tell who they are related to in life.
There have been conflicts. Recently, the two of them had quarreled over emotional issues, but according to Lao Fang, that person has been ruled out as a suspect in the crime."
In general, even if the murderer is perverted and cunning, there is no connection between the selected targets.
Xiao Zhuo kneaded the joint of his left index finger with his right hand and frowned even more as he listened: "These are all appearances. There must be something else we haven't discovered. Judging from the method of committing the crime, the murderer has an anti-reconnaissance consciousness. Apart from the footprints at the scene, there are many
It is difficult to find other traces."
"But today Liu Ming discovered something else. There was a pair of red leather shoes in the victim's home. This should not be an accident. Secondly, he not only killed a strong woman, but also searched the scene and took away the victim's property. There may have been thefts in the past.
Behavior. Finally, we need to understand why the murderer leaves the word 'purify' in every scene."
After saying this, Xiao Zhuo noticed Su Li's gaze. She had only taken her eyes away from the documents since the meeting.
Xiao Zhuo looked at her: "Do you have anything to add?"
