Yingmuting nodded vigorously and said: "Okay! I, Yingmuting, promise that I will definitely find evidence to help you clear your suspicion!" I held her hands tightly in my palms, because there, I will persevere. hope.
I said: "Thank you!" However, what I didn't expect was that this hasty decision would actually harm her! Yingmuting did not escape this situation after all.
I was confined to a small room in the police station, but no one came to interrogate me. I didn’t understand if this was how the case handling process should have been? I've never been detained before, so I don't know if the small room I'm in counts as a prison? Does this restriction of my freedom count as detention?
I stayed bored in this small room and thought about the events of the past few days from beginning to end. Apart from the conclusion that the deaths of the three of them were probably related to that mobile phone, I had no clue at all! People who are quiet will always have more random thoughts than others. I suddenly remembered a movie that was popular all over the country a few years ago. The name is "The Ring". The movie is about a box of extremely supernatural video tapes. Anyone who watches it will receive a phone call at midnight, predicting that the person will die in a week! Sure enough, everyone who saw this videotape and received the phone call was spared.
Reconnecting some of the things I have experienced so far with those who have died, are there any connections between mobile phones, midnight phone calls and a series of deaths? Do these plots seem familiar?
Qian Shanxue's death, that mobile phone, and the unknown phone call she received at midnight the day before her death.
Chiba Xionghei's death, that mobile phone and the call he received at midnight the day before his death from Qianshan Xue, who had been dead for two days.
Qian Shanbing’s death, that cell phone, unfortunately I don’t know whether he received a call at midnight. Because, unlike before, I didn't have any chance to check the call records of his mobile phone.
And if he had indeed received such a midnight phone call, the ending would undoubtedly make everyone's hair stand on end. Could it be that the mobile phone really carries a curse like that video tape?
I shook my head vigorously to get rid of these wild imaginations! One is a movie and the other is reality. How can we compare and learn from each other?
Just as I was thinking about it, the door of this small room opened, and a police officer walked in. It was Ke Bei! I quickly stood up. No matter how bad my impression of other police officers was, I still had great respect for this young police officer who was only a few years older than me! Just because when he was investigating and collecting evidence, before all the facts were clear, he always treated each of us as a normal person. He would not be biased or induce confessions with ulterior motives!
When he saw me standing up, he waved his hand to me and motioned for me to sit down. I saw that he seemed to smile, but the smile had lost its former cheerfulness and seemed to be a little depressed and helpless.
Ke Bei asked: "Brother Shiqiao Meng, how are you doing?"
I smiled bitterly and said, "Not so good?"
Ke Bei lowered his head and said, "That's right. I believe that no matter who it is, they would feel uncomfortable staying in a room like this?"
"Definitely!", I replied.
The two were silent for a while, and Ke Bei asked again: "Can you tell me what happened to you after our conference room was dismissed yesterday afternoon? Be more detailed."
I nodded and told in detail how I searched for my phone after they left yesterday to no avail. Later, Qian Shanbing walked in and found the phone in his hand, and then he suspected that I was the murderer. And what happened after I received a call from Qian Shanbing at midnight, and then hurried to the edge of the cliff... Wait, tell Ke Bei the whole story! During this process, Ke Bei, as usual, did not interrupt at all and listened very carefully!
After I finished speaking, he asked: "You mean, Qian Shanbing stole the mobile phone you put on the table yesterday afternoon? Are you sure that the mobile phone he had in his hand at that time was the one that was lost in your dormitory? That one?"
I nodded firmly and said, "Absolutely, because he admitted it himself!"
Ke Bei asked again: "But you said at that time that if someone wants to enter your dormitory and steal your mobile phone, they must pass by the door of the lounge where we are talking. Then we will definitely notice it, but Qian Shanbing walked by , why didn’t we find it?”
I said: "That's because Qian Shanbing has entered this floor in advance before all of you arrived. Where is he hiding? I think this is not a big problem, because I am the only one left on this floor during the holiday. Yes, he just hides in the toilet or the clothes drying room, and we won’t be able to find him in a short period of time.”
Ke Bei nodded and said, "Okay, then I understand!"
I asked strangely: "What do you understand?"
Ke Bei smiled, his smile seemed to have regained some warmth, and said: "Nothing! Let's talk about the key points of the case first. The current case of Qian Shanbing has been directly taken over by the city bureau's criminal investigation personnel, and I am here I can only play a supporting role, so the information I know is relatively limited, but I can tell you some things I know so that you can be properly mentally prepared!"
I nodded and said, "No matter what the conclusion is, I will be mentally prepared! Because I have prepared for the worst."
Ke Bei smiled bitterly again and said: "To be honest, Shi Qiaomeng, if you ask me to believe that you kill someone, I won't believe it."
I said: "Thank you!" Ke Bei waved his hand and continued: "Although we have not known each other for a long time, I have always regarded you as brothers and sisters from the bottom of my heart, so I won't beat around the bush! Nowadays, many scenes The information is very detrimental to you, such as: the wooden stick and the head injury of Qian Shanbing, the fierce characters and your name on the scrap of paper in Qian Shanbing’s hand, and also the cell phone in Qian Shanbing’s hand. , it’s the cell phone you mentioned before that was suddenly lost from the table in your dormitory. It was close to midnight, around 11:30, and there were records of calls made to your cell phone. The call duration was about five minutes, and the police’s The autopsy report also stated that Qian Shanbing’s death time was around this time. Therefore, all the signs are very unfavorable to you!”
I asked: "Then what is the number of that mobile phone you still remember?"
Ke Bei said: "I don't remember all, but I still remember the last four."
Then Ke Bei reported the last four digits of the supernatural mobile phone number! I recalled it carefully and said: "This number is indeed the phone number I received at midnight yesterday, and this call was made to me by Qian Shanbing. I was still surprised when I saw this number, because I had never seen this number before, but now I understand that it was Qian Shanbing who called me from her dead sister’s cell phone! It was during this call that he asked me to meet at the cliff.”
Ke Bei said: "Although many signs now show that you are the most suspicious, it only means that you are related to the death of Qian Shanbing, but it does not mean that the deaths of Qian Shanxue and Qianye Xiongping are also related to you. Related! In addition, just relying on the wooden stick that hit Qian Shanbing’s head and the bloody words in Qian Shanbing’s hand cannot completely determine that you are the murderer, because you still lack a crucial factor: the motive for killing. !”
Ke Bei is indeed a policeman worthy of my liking, cautious, meticulous and full of compassion! I said, "Ke Bei, with your words, I will be more than willing to lock me up for a few more days."
Ke Bei laughed and scolded: "You brat, how could you curse yourself like this? However, having said that, it is really difficult to overturn and rationally explain the previous signs. For example: The bloody words in Qian Shanbing's hand turned out to be What does your name mean? Then what is the content on the other half of the napkin that was torn and missing? These are all things that I can’t figure out. "
Suddenly my heart moved and I remembered something, so I said, "Brother Ke Bei, I have some very strange ideas. Have you seen the Japanese movie "The Ring"?"
