"In the first picture album project, there were six unsettled cases, plus one murderer who was incapacitated, a total of seven cases of'unsatisfactory', and the biggest suspect died one after another. Among them, the seventh case That is, the murder of Zhu Feng’s husband Yu Bin is a bit special.” Luo Wenzhou took the old file handed over by Xiao Haiyang, opened it on the coffee table, and showed it to everyone. The only time he and Fei Du were alone was the one on the road. For a short time, the home has long since become a stronghold outside the city bureau, with cigarette butts and half-drink canned beverage bottles everywhere.

Luo Wenzhou: "Zhu Feng insisted that the man in the mental hospital was topped up because his physical characteristics did not match the murderer she met at the scene of the crime."

"The name of the murderer in the street was'Qian Cheng'. He lived near the place where the crime was committed. The neighbors in the neighborhood knew him. Because of mental disorders, Qian Cheng did not have the ability to live independently. He was still in his forties. After his father passed away, he entrusted him to a relative after his death. The relative took the money, but took care of him very poorly. He only visited him once a week, and allowed him to wander around and eat trash when he was hungry. But he went crazy. Neighbors said that he did not take the initiative to provoke others, his temper was relatively mild, and he was not very aggressive. At first, when he heard that he had killed someone, everyone couldn't believe it-the person in the photo was the murderer Qian Cheng."

Xiao Haiyang stretched out his hand and clicked on the photo in the old file. One of the photos was taken when he was just captured. The people and the tattered shirts were all black, completely inhuman, like a walking mop; the second one. The photo is much more refreshing. He has cleaned up, shaved his head, and changed his prison uniform. This time he can see his original appearance. He seems to be a middle-aged man with a straight face, but his eyes and expression are a bit strange. Not like a sober normal person.

"Forensic identification of people with mental disabilities has strict procedures for the incapacitated. Even more than ten years ago, this management was not as perfect, and fraud was not as easy as outsiders imagined, and if someone disagrees with the identification conclusion, You can also apply in court to another agency to issue another opinion." Luo Wenzhou said, "This murderer has a name and a surname locally, and everyone around knows that he is sick, and it is unlikely that he is fake." /

"Moreover, this man is a mental patient who spends trash and eats. He has no money, no background, and he doesn't even care about relatives. If it sounds bad, he is a burden," another detective said. "Who would spend a lot of time for him? Is he taking such a big risk to commit fraud? I don’t think Zhu Feng is credible."

Fei Du scanned the case description in the file with ten lines--

The murderer escaped after the murder...the police rushed out...with the help of the enthusiastic crowd...blocked in the alley...the murder weapon...the bloodstain...

He raised his eyebrows and suddenly looked at the two photos Xiao Haiyang had just taken out.

"That's right, relatives regard him as a cumbersome. I usually don't see and feel annoyed. I wish he disappeared. If he lost it, no one would look for him." Fei Du whispered, "The map near the scene of the crime has Right?"

"Yes!" Xiao Haiyang worked very carefully. Hearing this, he immediately took out an old map densely labeled.

"The location of the incident was in a street of a small vendor that spontaneously formed. I compiled the witness testimony. At that time, the deceased Yu Bin was probably here—in front of a meat stall at the intersection and had a quarrel with the murderer. Then the conflict escalated. The murderer suddenly picked up the knife on the meat stall, stabbed the deceased, and then fled towards the road opposite the intersection. He ran into Zhu Feng who had rushed back to get the key on the side of the road. After getting up, he waved the belt. The **** weapon continued to run across the road. After a few minutes, the police and security arrived, and some courageous people pointed the way to help search. About ten minutes-this is recorded in the witness's testimony, it may be Error-the police caught Qian Cheng in an alley."

Fei Du: "What is the approximate location of the arrest?"

Xiao Haiyang took a closer look and drew a circle on the map: "It should be this. Across the road is a shanty town to be demolished."

Luo Wenzhou: "Why, what's the problem?"

"I think there are two more reliable guesses," Fei Du said. "First, the murderer was replaced by an impostor is a vain thing. Zhu Feng himself talked nonsense..."

"Second, the murderer was indeed turned off, but not during the arrest and trial, but before he was arrested."

Luo Wenzhou was taken aback, and then immediately reacted: "You mean, the murderer in the street and Qian Cheng who were caught by the police at the time were not alone?"

"When the murderer killed and Qian Cheng was arrested, he was covered in dirt and dressed as a typical tramp. The facial features were not distinguishable at all. As long as the physical features were similar, in that sudden situation, unless he was an acquaintance, otherwise It’s normal for passers-by not to see the difference."

Xiao Haiyang: "Qian Cheng is a mentally disabled person who has no one to care about. I'm afraid I don't have any acquaintances."

Fei Du continued: "At that time, in addition to the witnesses, the decisive evidence was the blood suit and the murder weapon. If there is a certain time difference between the murderer's escape and the final arrest, as the ocean said, then it is not difficult to manipulate it-he first You need to find a place to settle in the shantytown to be demolished, kidnap the scapegoat Qiancheng, take advantage of the chaos after the murder, get out of sight, escape into the shantytown, wipe your fingerprints, and stuff Qiancheng with blood coats and murder weapons."

"As soon as a homeless man wearing a blood suit and holding a murder weapon appears, if someone yells "the murderer is there" at this time, those who hunt for the murderer will immediately chase after the murderer subconsciously and think that he has caught the murderer. Anyway, this The lunatic can't even say anything, and can't figure out what happened, let alone defend himself." Fei Du paused, "There is no trace of killing under the public. As long as the retreat route is calculated properly, there is no accident and it is maneuverable. It's much more than buying the public security law."

Xiao Haiyang was fought into a cold war by him.

"Qian Cheng’s neighbors all said that although this person is abnormal, he has a gentle personality. Zhu Feng also confessed that Yu Bin is a character that does not like to conflict with others. These two people do not seem to be on the street for a little trivial purpose. Fighting hard," Fei Du whispered, "This is a deliberate murder."

"But...why do you want to kill an ordinary art teacher?"

"This question is very important," Fei Du raised his eyes to look at Luo Wenzhou, "Also, who was later stabbed to death in the mental hospital? Was it the real culprit? Or was Qiancheng the hapless scapegoat?"

"It's Qian Cheng," Xiao Haiyang said. "Qian Cheng's basic information was registered when he was arrested. Of course, to confirm the identity of the corpse, he must go through a forensic autopsy. The substitution must have happened long ago. And Zhu Feng It is also said that the murderer of her husband is still at large, and she does not admit that the murderer of Yu Bin who died in the mental hospital was the real murderer-what does this indicate?"

Fei Du: "If the above speculation is correct, Qian Cheng shouldn't be killed by the'reciter', because he is innocent."

"Do you think the reciters don't kill innocent people?" Luo Wenzhou looked a little gloomy, "Then Chen Zhen, Feng Bin, and Xiao..."

"No," Fei Du interrupted him, "Reciters will not use such ritualistic methods to kill innocent people."

He said, stood up, and walked to the balcony integrated with the living room. There were sporadic firecrackers in the distance. This year, the urban area was not strictly regulated. Many people secretly set off firecrackers in advance, and the sky that had only been bright for a few days was smoky again.

"I can probably make a simple psychological portrait for the reciter now."

Fei Du closed his eyes slightly. The man who appeared in Fei Chengyu’s basement like a ghost many years ago showed a secret smile deep in his memory. He is tall and has deep eye sockets, and his eyes are thick and melted. The shadow that didn't open again reflected the almost dazzling light... sharp, cold, and as if it were hatred.

"The'Reciter' is a mutual aid organization formed by former victims. Traumas that are not properly relieved for a long time can hurt people's sense of trust. Sometimes it will be accompanied by symptoms of hypervigilance and aggressiveness. Changing a person’s personality, alienating oneself, withdrawing from others, and increasing the sense of isolation from other people in the society, only when facing people who encounter the same people, can you feel a sense of belonging-this is the reason why mutual aid organizations are beneficial."

"But a normal mutual aid organization allows the traumatized to be in a relatively comfortable and belonging environment, guided by professionals, to ease the pressure from each other's positive feedback, accept the facts, and slowly get out of the small circle. Return to a normal life, instead of letting them immerse themselves in each other’s negative feedback, increasing their estrangement from the outside world, and finally developing into a small group that is closed, isolated, and obliterated the sense of independence."

"There are many literatures on the study of group psychology. The famous September Massacre in Paris and the Rwanda Massacre are typical cases. The initiator of the "Reciter" is an expert in this field. He successfully constructed such a group. ——They think that they are persecuted and just, and their traumatic hypervigilance is constantly strengthened. The hatred towards the perpetrator at the beginning will be like a bowl of filled water, and after overflow, it will spread to all outsiders——they The unfairness that I feel is the fault of society and everyone in this society. As for the police who should be upholding justice, they are dereliction of duty and incompetence, and the crime is unforgivable."

"Finally, people outside the small group are objectified and can easily become tools for revenge. Even if they hurt the innocent, they are regarded as necessary sacrifices on the road to revenge and justice." Fei Du's eyes swept towards all the implied anger The criminal police, "but the'revenge tool' and the'revenge object' are not the same. In order to increase the cohesion of the group, they must have a certain belief, and to cultivate this belief requires a sense of ritual-for example,'tooth for a tooth' to the offender. Died of the crimes he committed."

"You mean, Fan Siyuan, the initiator of the reciter, designed this group since he killed the first person in the first album plan." Luo Wenzhou asked, "The killing is part of his plan. It's not a kind of "gazing into the abyss"."

"No," Fei Du said, "This group has a stable structure, streamlined members, strong cohesion, and very loyal. It was consciously designed and trained by Fan Siyuan. He was the first'volunteer policeman' and suspected that the murder was not punished. People are not out of righteous indignation. If Fan Siyuan had contacted Zhu Feng early, he should have realized that the person in the mental hospital was not the real murderer and there was no point in killing him."

"The time when Zhu Feng broke into the mental hospital was very close to the time when Qian Cheng was finally killed," Luo Wenzhou pondered for a moment, and said, "Is it possible that this is the case? The real murderer heard Zhu Feng's accusation and realized that he had changed. The incident was not so seamless. It happened that an accident occurred in the album plan at the time, so he fished the case in troubled waters—giving people an unconscious impression that Qian Cheng was the target of revenge, so he was the real murderer. People will be preconceived and will not pursue it carefully."

Xiao Haiyang jumped up quickly: "So the murder of Zhu Feng's husband, Yu Bin, was arranged by the inner ghost of the city bureau!"

Luo Wenzhou: "Go to find out where Yubin has been in contact with people, schools, and students who have been taught."

Xiao Haiyang jumped up.

At this time, another detective asked: "Team Luo, is there any suspicion for the inner ghost of the year? Should we stare at it?"

Before Luo Wenzhou could speak, Fei Du glanced at his watch.

"Not for the time being," Fei Du said, "the time is almost up, someone will go."

After the investigator in charge of Fei Du sent away people, people kept going back and carefully looked at Fei Du’s monitoring records--it was a long time, chatting with different people for several hours, and the information was messy and disorderly. He first found and Pan Yunteng's information was sorted from beginning to end. As Fei Du said, it was all inexplicable inquiries and greetings from the students, and there was nothing of value. The investigator was a little disappointed, and was about to give up, but vaguely felt that there was something in his throat.

When combing through the information from beginning to end again, he suddenly noticed something and pressed to pause the playback.

On the screen, a subtle look flashed across Fei Du's face, and then he sent a voice message as if pretending to be calm: "I haven't heard, what can I do?"

The investigator was stunned, and then he replayed the conversation between Fei Du and the "philosopher" from beginning to end, and then called a technician-Fei Du did not plug in his headphones and listened to the voice message. Without putting the earpiece close to the ear, the faint male voice in the phone earpiece can be heard directly in the bug. After amplifying by technical means, the voice message sent by the "philosopher" is very clear.

The keyword "Zhang Ting" made the investigator excited.

At the same time, Zhou Huaijin, who quietly returned to the Zhou family’s old house, is after all the only surviving heir to the Zhou family. He is very efficient and has obtained the whereabouts of Zhou Yahou’s former assistant thirty-eight years ago.
