Chapter 6 Long time no see
Li Shaokun's testimony about the crime he committed basically matched all the clues the police had, so the case soon entered the public prosecution stage. This should have been a happy thing, but the people in the B City Police Department and the task force were not happy.
"He is the murderer, but not the real murderer." These words Wang Zheng left when he left that day were still echoing in Gu Xia's ears. It was not until a new batch of cans containing human tissues were discovered that he finally understood what these words meant.
The canned food was delivered the next morning. Gao Feng and others who had been interrogating all night had no time to eat breakfast before they were hurriedly called to the forensic room by Bai Ling. The moment they entered the room, the three of them were stunned.
There were ten opened cans on the workbench and the air was filled with a faint aroma of food. Meanwhile, on the sofa not far away, Wang Zheng curled up with his eyes closed, not moving, as if he had fallen asleep.
"How long has it been like this?" Huamei frowned. She was Wang Zheng's psychiatrist and she spotted the problem right away.
Bai Ling recalled for a while and said, "Not long after the canned food was delivered, I went to the laboratory to get the report. When I came back, he was already like this. It's been about two hours."
"What's going on?" Gu Xia asked quickly.
"Did Wang Zheng feel any stimulation when he came back?" Huamei asked back.
"Excitement..." Gu Xia recalled for a long while before carefully telling Wang Zheng what happened in the basement. While speaking, he was surprised to find that the latter's expression became even uglier.
"Professor Gu, I promised you that you could search for evidence with Wang Zheng alone, but at the same time, you also promised me that someone must accompany him during the investigation. I handed him over to you because I trusted you, but you turned a deaf ear to my words!" Huamei's tone was very stiff and her face looked very ugly.
When Gu Xia heard this, annoyance undoubtedly appeared on his face. He took out the prepared smoking cessation candy from his trouser pocket, but the overly complicated packaging made him lose his patience. In anger, he crumpled the packaging box into a ball and threw it into the trash can.
"What's wrong with this kid?" Gao Feng opened his mouth and found that six eyes were staring at him eagerly. His tone unconsciously softened a lot, "We are in the same group, we must be kind to each other..."
"Not now." Huamei looked at Gu Xia with a cold face and said, "I want the earliest ticket back to Southwest, immediately."
Gu Xia was about to open his mouth to explain something, but seeing Huamei's expression, he finally nodded and said with regret, gritting his teeth: "Okay, I'll arrange it right now."
This scene looks extremely shocking and absurd.
Five members of the task force came from all directions. The group had been together for less than 48 hours, and they were on the verge of disbanding simply because of a problem with one person. Even Gao Feng, who had an incredibly bad temper, had a decadent look on his face.
"Old Gulu, this is a big problem..." At this moment, Wang Yongchang's voice came back from outside the door. He rushed in and said, "Just now, the forensic department..."
Before he could finish his words, he saw the four people in front of him staring at him, preventing him from continuing what he needed to say.
"Are you okay or not? If not, get out!" Gu Xia said impatiently.
"I brought you the information, and this is how you repay me? Let me tell you, this case... Tsk tsk, it's incredible!"
As Wang Yongchang spoke, he stretched out his hand. In his hand, he held a file, but it was twice as large as the files the task force had on hand.
"Go out first. I'll come find you after the meeting here." Gu Xia urged impatiently. When Wang Yongchang left, he suddenly thought, "Oh, by the way, help me book two tickets for the earliest return to the southwest. I'll give you my ID card later."
"Oh? Okay." Wang Yongchang looked at them meaningfully, turned and left.
"As you can see, there is more and more information about the case, and it is very likely that the case will be escalated again. Your task is also heavy, so go back and have a rest first." Gu Xia looked at Gao Feng and the other man and sighed helplessly.
"Yes, Professor Gu."
"I see a grown man crying all night, so I'll go back and have a rest. It's really a nuisance." When Gao Feng turned around and left, he did not forget to look at the sleeping Wang Zheng and said something meaningful.
Seeing the two men leave, Gu Xia and Hua Mei looked at each other and said something. They also looked at him worriedly, then turned and left. However, they did not notice that when they left, Wang Zheng's mouth moved...
…
Wang Zheng suddenly opened his eyes and found himself sitting at a long European-style dining table. He looked around carefully and found that it was a very narrow space.
Not far from the table, there were two kitchen workbenches that were extremely ordinary. Just like what he had seen in the cellar that day, the kitchen utensils on the workbenches were neatly arranged, and there was a cooking pot more than half a person's height on the stove next to them.
It seemed that something was cooking in the pot, which made gurgling sounds and emitted an intoxicating aroma.
At this moment, Wang Zheng felt as if he was really in Europe, sitting at the dining table like a rich man, waiting for the top chef to serve him the best dishes. He suddenly felt impatient.
Hmmmm…
At this moment, suddenly a burst of animal cries reached Wang Zheng's ears. He looked up and suddenly found that a burly figure had appeared . He was easily moving the struggling animal onto the workbench, then pulling out the hidden restraints from the back of the workbench and tying the animal up tightly.
From Wang Zheng's perspective, he could clearly see that it was a fat pig. Its eyes were full of fear, as if it was struggling and unwilling to be eaten.
Wang Zheng's sight returned to the man whose back he could only see. After he tied up the pig, he walked to the soup pot humming a little tune, picked up a slender golden spoon not far away, scooped a little soup from the soup pot, gently held it in his mouth, and then made a smacking sound.
There is no doubt that he was very satisfied with the taste of the soup, and it can also be seen that he is a person who pays great attention to hygiene and has high requirements on the taste of food.
"I have to deal with you as soon as possible, otherwise the soup will be overcooked and won't taste good." He said to himself.
He walked back to the pig again, first picking out a special thin knife, and after measuring the exact position with his hand, he held the knife at an angle, then gently inserted the tip of the knife, and flicked his wrist. With a snap, a transparent tendon was picked out.
Then, he took out a short and wide boning knife again and chopped it accurately on the wound he had cut, and the pig's hoof was chopped off in one go.
The pig obviously couldn't bear such great pain. Its head tilted and it fainted in an instant.
Soon, he took advantage of this opportunity to pick up a spray gun from not far away and gently turned the air valve!
laugh!
An arc of fire shot out from the nozzle of the blowgun, burning the still bleeding pig's ankle. The originally tender red meat was instantly charred into a ball, transmitting the aroma of barbecue while stopping the gushing blood.
Although the process is cruel, Wang Zheng has to say that this method is more effective and professional than emergency sutures in emergencies, of course, provided that you cannot find your foot.
"Do you want to have the meat shabu-shabu or steamed?" the man spoke.
"I can listen to your opinion. Often the opinions of madmen are the most professional and the most desirable." Wang Zheng leaned back in his chair, a smile appearing unconsciously on his face.
"Yeah, it's been five years since we last met." The man chuckled, "I'm curious why you took the initiative to look for me."
"I need clues." Wang Zheng's expression turned serious.
"You are a psychological profiler. When will you ask me, a criminal expert, for clues?" The man suddenly laughed. "But if the two of us merge, you will become a true criminal master."
"Impossible, you'd better give up this idea." Wang Zheng said seriously.
"That's your problem." The man turned around and put the plate with the pig's trotters on the table, then looked up at Wang Zheng and smiled evilly: "If you want to understand a person, you must first become a person. You said this!"
"You...!" Wang Zheng's eyes suddenly widened and his breathing became rapid.
With the help of the dim light, one can clearly see that the man's body and face are covered with splattered blood, and under his blazing red eyes are the corners of his mouth that are tilted up.
If there were outsiders present at this time, they would be surprised to find that the two people looked exactly the same.
"I'm going to drive now. If you don't have anything else to do, please help yourself." Wang Zheng, with red eyes, smiled evilly, "By the way, you'd better not look at my food out of curiosity."
"Why should I..." Wang Zheng lowered his head and was horrified to find that the plate of pig's trotters on his table had turned into a bloody human paw, and the unconscious wild boar on the workbench had turned into a living person!
