Requiem Chapter 63: A Frightened Bird
"Okay!" "Okay!" "Okay!" Ouyang Xue gritted her teeth and said the word "Okay" three times in a row, then slammed her police hat heavily on the table, looking very angry.
"Call the medical examiner to come and clean up. We'll go to the police station!" She stood up and said to the two policemen who were secretly sticking their tongues out. Then she glared at Yin Hui fiercely and said, "Don't laugh. And you, come back with me!"
"I've said everything I need to say, why do I still have to go to the police station?" Yin Hun's cheeks twitched. He probably couldn't count the number of times he had been to the police station in these days with his ten fingers.
"Hehe! God bless you if you are not shot!" Ouyang Xue said this and walked away with her head held high. The remaining two policemen looked at Yin Hun with sympathy and sighed in unison.
Yin Hui: “…”
Old Zhao: “…”
At the police station, Yin Hui and Zhao Deshui sat side by side on the chairs in front of Ouyang Xue. Seeing the empty cups in front of them and the stack of densely written draft papers, one could guess that the two were tortured by Ouyang Xue. Recording a confession is also a physical job! On the other side, Director Zhou was mumbling to himself with a pale face. No one knew what he was saying. When he was first invited, he was still full of spring, but when he heard that Sun Faxue was also dead, his face changed on the spot.
"Is that all?" Ouyang Xue violently shook the notebook in her hand, "Can you recall some more key clues?"
Yin Hui shook his head repeatedly, his throat was smoking, what else could he say. As the saying goes: three women make a play, now he finally understood that in fact, one woman can also play three plays.
At this moment, Director Zhou suddenly jumped up in fear: "I know, I know who killed Sun Faxue."
"Have you remembered something? Don't be anxious, just speak slowly!" After hearing his words, Ouyang Xue almost became excited to the point of being unable to control herself.
"That woman, that evil ghost!" Director Zhou said in horror, "Haha! Everyone who knows about this will die one after another. Zhou Haiqing died, Qian Fang died, and now Sun Faxue is dead too. It will be my turn next, it must be like this, hehe! And you, and you, we are all haunted by the devil, no one can escape." Director Zhou's body kept shaking, as if he saw the god of death walking towards him with a bloody sickle and grinning, ready to swing the sickle to cut off his head at any time.
"What is this matter?" Ouyang Xue opened the recorder in a panic.
"I don't know, I don't know, don't ask me, I know nothing!" Director Zhou was crazy. Ouyang Xue asked for a long time but couldn't get what she wanted. She could only smile bitterly and shook her head, her heart full of doubts. What exactly was that matter?
At this moment, such an idea suddenly flashed through her mind. If we just talk about inference, let's put aside the matter itself. Since only a few of them knew about that matter, the murderer must be among them. In addition to the five people who have died, there are still Zhao Deshui, Director Zhou and Yin Hun. The murderer must be among the three of them. In this case, Zhao Deshui is also a big suspect. Yesterday, only he, Yin Hun and the deceased were drinking alone together. He was also the first to discover the body of the deceased. Of course, it is not ruled out that they worked together. But what role does the woman mentioned by Director Zhou play in this confusing murder case?
Everything has just begun and everything is still a mystery.
Thinking of this, she glanced at Director Zhou, who was now lying on his desk , looking ashen and shaking all over. Ouyang Xue thought for a moment and said, "It's getting late, you should go back first! I will slowly investigate this matter."
When Director Zhou saw that Ouyang Xue was trying to chase him away, he suddenly became anxious: "No, I can't leave. That thing will definitely find me."
Director Zhou has now become a frightened bird. He is extremely scared at the thought that he might be the next person to die.
Ouyang Xue saw that Director Zhou's fear did not seem to be fake, so it seemed that the murderer might not be him, but appearances could be misleading, and it was too early to draw such a conclusion now. No one dared to draw an absolute conclusion until the last moment.
Thinking of this, out of perfunctory, she took out a business card: "Here's how! This is my business card. If you have any questions, just call me directly."
Director Zhou did not reach out to take the business card. He stood there in a daze and said, "What's the point of me asking for your phone number? When something really happens, I might have already turned into a cold corpse before I can even call you."
"This..." Ouyang Xue was a little embarrassed. If Director Zhou was really not the murderer, she had the obligation to protect his personal safety. But even so, she couldn't follow him 24 hours a day. There were so many cases waiting to be investigated. She was a people's policeman, not a private bodyguard. It was impossible for her to serve Director Zhou alone, even though he held a high position in the Civil Affairs Bureau.
At this time, Yin Hui came up to help. He patted Director Zhou on the shoulder and said, "Don't worry. If you are worried about your safety, just stay at the police station! It would be best if you stay in our Inspector Ouyang's office. I don't believe that the murderer dares to break into the police station!"
Director Zhou's eyes lit up, and then he nodded repeatedly as if he had grasped a life-saving straw: "Yes, yes! I live in the police station, I live in the office."
At this moment, Ouyang Xue had no idea how many times she had stabbed Yin Hui in her heart. Damn, did I dig up your ancestral graves or burn down your ancestral hall? Is it so harmful? Let a neurotic guy live in the police station 24 hours a day, and let him live in my office! God bless him, God bless him! But verbally, she had to smile and said with gritted teeth: "That's it! I will arrange comrades to take care of Mr. Zhou. You'd better not go out alone during this period. If you find any suspicious people, call the police immediately."
Yin Hui nodded and said, "I see. Thank you."
"Okay, that's it! I have official business to attend to, so I can't see you off!" Ouyang Xue ordered him to leave.
Old Zhao stood up and suddenly interrupted, "What should we do with Old Sun's body? Should we call a forensic doctor to take a look?"
Ouyang Xue waved her hand: "There is no need for this. Please inform his family to dispose of the body as soon as possible!"
Watching the figures of the master and disciple walking away, Ouyang Xue wrote down the names of Zhao Deshui and Yin Hun on a piece of white paper with a pen. After pondering for a long time, she drew a red circle on Zhao Deshui's name.
"Who could be the murderer?" Just as Ouyang Xue was racking her brains, a face suddenly appeared in front of her. She was so scared that she gasped. Upon closer inspection, it turned out to be Director Zhou, the funny guy.
"The death of Qian Fang and others must not be a coincidence, hehe! Each of them died so horribly and miserably. The security guard had his face torn off, Ma Gobi was burned to ashes, Zhou Haiqing was hanged alive, Qian Fang was stabbed into a skewer, and Sun Faxue was bitten into a bloody mess. I don't know how I will die when it's my turn. Will it use more cruel means to deal with me? Ah! I can't stand it anymore." Director Zhou pulled his tie with his hands, his face haggard.
Ouyang Xue frowned, wondering how a grown man could behave like this: "These are just your own wild guesses. The real situation may not be like this. Don't worry! You will be fine."
"No, I have a premonition that I will die!" As he spoke, Director Zhou's body began to tremble even more violently.
Putting down the coffee cup, Ouyang Xue was afraid that Director Zhou would be crushed if he continued like this. Besides, she still wanted to pry something out of him, so she comforted him, "Don't let your imagination run wild. You'll scare yourself to death. What we need to do now is to wait for the case to be investigated and don't think about anything else."
But Director Zhou, who was mentally out of control, obviously would not listen to her, because as soon as he relaxed a little, he felt something was quietly approaching him, ready to pounce on him when he was not paying attention. This repeated, made Ouyang Xue, who was already sleep-deprived, startled.
In desperation, Ouyang Xue had to find some sleeping pills for him to take. After Director Zhou took the sleeping pills and fell asleep, Ouyang Xue finally breathed a sigh of relief and began to review today's other cases with peace of mind.
