Chapter 32 Section Eleven

Saturday, June 4. Municipal Public Security Bureau. Ye Lei just came back from outside after finishing a case, dripping with sweat.Before he had time to sit down and take a sip of water, Captain Huo Wen walked towards him and beckoned, "Come to my office." "Oh, it's terrible." Ye Lei wiped the sweat from his forehead. "There won't be a new mission soon." Walking into the captain's office, Ye Lei sat on a leather chair opposite Huo Wen and asked, "Captain, what are your orders?" "In the past few days, you still haven't received any reports of missing persons?" Huo Wen asked.

"No." Ye Lei shook his head. "It seems that our judgment is correct-the victim of the homicide case is indeed a foreigner or a floating population." Ye Lei thought for a while, and said: "But, even people from other places, it is impossible to have no contact with the people around them. If a big living person disappears out of thin air, don't people who have contacted her feel strangeness?" Huo Wen crossed his hands, propped his elbows on the table, his gaze was like a torch. "In my analysis, there are two situations. The first is that the victim is a floating population who has no job or no fixed place to live. Since she has no regular contacts, she can't attract anyone's attention after she disappeared (killed). "

Ye Lei nodded and continued to listen to the captain's analysis. "The second situation is that the victim has a job and a fixed residence, but before killing him, the murderer used some method to make people around him think that the victim just 'gone temporarily' rather than 'disappeared forever' ’—so, until now, no one has come to report the crime.” Ye Lei squeezed his chin with his hands: "Captain, what do you mean, the murderer may have created an illusion that the victim left the local area or changed his place of residence to confuse everyone?" "This possibility is very high." Huo Wen paused. "The day the first part (the stump) of the second victim came out was May 29, and now seven days have passed and the second part of the stump hasn't been thrown out yet."

"Captain, what do you want to say?" Ye Lei asked. Huo Wen was silent for a long time. "I was thinking, on what basis did the murderer decide the date of dumping the body? Is it just random?" "It depends on your mood if you don't throw the corpse?" Ye Lei said half-jokingly. Howen watched him sternly. "Maybe, it's really what you said." Ye Lei removed the smile on his face and replaced it with a serious expression. "I analyzed it last time. This kind of perverted killer's mentality is different from that of normal people. To him (her), killing and dismembering corpses does not necessarily mean destroying corpses and destroying traces, but may be just a kind of entertainment, or to vent—— This is of course related to the murderer's emotions. When he (she) is emotionally stable, maybe his desire to do this kind of thing will be lower; Doing these things to vent or seek excitement."

Ye Lei said: "Captain, what do you mean, the murderer didn't throw out the other part of the (second) body after seven days. Is it because he (she) has been in a good mood these days?" "It's only possible and. In short, during this period of time, it is still necessary to strengthen night patrols—especially on small streets and alleys. There is also a need to pay close attention to people who have frequent contact with foreign populations, and we must not take it lightly. There must be no more incidents. Three victims!" "Yes!" Ye Lei stood up.A warning salute was performed.

This afternoon, Yu Kailin went to the supermarket to buy a bunch of ingredients, fruits, and tableware—she told Wei Jun in the morning that she would treat her to dinner tonight—Wei Jun seemed very happy. Fresh beef tenderloin, chicken, carrots, onions and purple cabbage, as well as red wine and various condiments, as well as the after-dinner fruit - watermelon.Yu Kailin counted the things she bought—well, they were all in place. She returned to the place where she rented the house with this big bag of ingredients, and checked the time. It was already 4 o'clock, and she could start preparing.

At six o'clock, Wei Jun came over from the next door. As soon as she entered, she exclaimed, "Mmm, it smells so good!" Yu Kailin smiled and said, "I'm doing..." "Wait a minute, let me guess." Wei Jun cut off Yu Kailin's words with gestures, and used his sense of smell to detect the fragrance wafting from the house. "It's roast chicken. Right?" "Ah—" Yu Kailin said in surprise, "Yes! Sister Juan, your nose is amazing!" "It's nothing. People who cook often are familiar with all kinds of aromas." "It will be ready soon. Sister Juan, sit down and watch TV for a while." Yu Kailin greeted.

"Is there anything I can do for you?" "No, I'm ready. You can fry the steak as soon as you come over." Wei Jun smiled and said, "It looks like you are going to treat me to Western food." Yu Kailin said embarrassedly: "Chinese food is too complicated. I don't know how to cook it. Western food is relatively simple." "Western food is good. Then I'll wait to taste your cooking—oh, and by the way, my steak is going to be medium-rare." "Okay, we can eat in twenty minutes." Yu Kailin turned around and went to the kitchen to get busy.Wei Jun walked around the room, then sat on the sofa, flipping through a fashion magazine.

At 6:30, Yu Kailin brought the ready-made vegetable salad, black pepper steak, and honey grilled chicken to the table, and then placed two tall glass wine glasses and poured red wine.The dining table was a small folded square table covered with a tablecloth, so that something filled the whole table. Wei Jun came over, looked at a table of decent western food, and praised: "I never expected you to be so good at cooking, it looks just like the ones in the western restaurant." "You're joking, Miss Juan. Actually, I can only cook these few dishes." Yu Kailin greeted, "Please sit down."

The two sat opposite each other.Yu Kailin picked up the wine glass. "Sister Jun, I offer you a toast. Thank you..." "Stop saying thank you." Wei Jun picked up his glass. "If you're so polite, we're all going to be very restrained. Eat and chat easily as friends, okay?" Yu Kailin smiled. "Okay." The two took a sip of the red wine in their glasses together. "Try the steak first, this one should be eaten while it's hot." Yu Kailin said to Wei Jun. "Okay, I'll try it." Wei Jun cut off a small piece of beef with a knife and put it into his mouth with a fork. "Mmm, it's delicious! Tender and juicy."

"As long as it suits your taste." Yu Kailin cut off a chicken leg from the whole roast chicken with a knife and put it on an empty plate in front of Wei Crocodile. "Try this again, Miss Juan." Wei Jun gently twisted the chicken leg with two fingers and took a bite, nodded repeatedly: "This is more delicious, it's my favorite flavor!" In fact, Yu Kailin really made this roasted chicken with honey sauce according to her liking, she knew that Wei Jun likes to eat sweet things.At this moment, she saw that the guests were satisfied with the meal, and she felt a sense of accomplishment, so she said happily: "It's great that you like to eat. I was worried that the craftsmanship would not be good enough." "Hmm..." Wei Jun closed his eyes and savored carefully. "Not only is it delicious, I'm obsessed with the taste - can you show me how to make this roast chicken?" "It's easy. You can make it in the microwave." "Did you buy a microwave?" "Well, I eat alone, it's more convenient to use the microwave." "Teach me how to make it." Wei Jun asked with great interest while cutting the steak. "First, hollow out the belly of the chicken, and use a toothpick to pierce many small holes on the surface of the chicken. Then spread salt, pepper, chili powder and malt syrup evenly on the inside and outside of the chicken..." Yu Kailin described the production process of roast chicken in detail.Wei Jun didn't blink his eyes, looking very interested.After finishing speaking, Wei Jun nodded to show that he understood. "How did you know how to cook this roast chicken?" Wei Jun asked curiously. "I bought a cookbook before and tried to make it at home." "That's great!" Wei Jun said happily, "You know, I like to study and cook all kinds of delicacies, and I didn't expect you to like it too—we can communicate more in the future!" "Well, yes..." Yu Kailin politely agreed. Then, the two chatted casually about some women's topics.No matter what was being discussed, Yu Kailin tried to follow Wei Jun's meaning - she could tell that her treat was quite successful this time.Wei Jun's face was flushed, and he appeared to be in a very good mood. In the middle of the meal, Wei Jun finished the red wine in the glass.Yu Kailin wanted to pour wine to her, but she waved her hand and said, "I'm very happy today, I want to have a good time, drinking this wine is a bit boring." Yu Kailin looked sorry. "I'm sorry, Miss Juan, I only bought this bottle of wine." Wei Jun raised his index finger and waved it twice. "You wait." After getting up, he walked out the door.A minute later, she came back with a bottle of liquor. "How about it? Let's drink this instead." Wei Jun sat down again and shook the bottle of wine. "Ah...it's not appropriate to eat western food and drink white wine, right?" "There's nothing inappropriate. Believe me, spirits are suitable for any occasion." Wei Jun opened the bottle cap and poured himself half a glass of white wine.Ask Yu Kailin, "Would you like some too?" "I'll just drink red wine." Yu Kailin held the wine glass, and there was still a shallow layer of wine at the bottom of the glass. Wei Jun raised his eyebrows: "This is a good bottle of wine for me, you really don't want to take a sip?" "I don't know how to drink liquor." "Just take it as a drink with me." Wei Jun looked at Yu Kailin with earnest eyes. "Drink less." Yu Kailin couldn't refuse anymore, so she could only agree: "Okay." She drank the remaining red wine in the glass and passed the glass over. Wei Jun happily poured half a glass of white wine into Yu Kailin's glass.She handed the glass to Yu Kailin, and then picked up her own glass. "This time I'll toast you." Yu Kailin held the cup with both hands, and said shamelessly, "Sister Juan, I am the one who is taking care of you, so I should respect you." Wei Jun shook his head and said, "No. I also want to thank you. You make me feel like I have made a good friend. Unlike the woman who lived here before..." Having said that, her voice stopped abruptly, she was startled, and her opened lips trembled, as if she realized that she had slipped a word. Yu Kailin couldn't help asking curiously: "What happened to the woman who lived here before...?" "It's nothing." Wei Jun returned to his normal expression. "She's just...somewhat duplicity and hypocrisy...Forget it, let's not talk about her." She raised her glass. "To our friendship, cheers." Yu Kailin bumped the cup towards her. "cheers." Although it said "cheers".But Yu Kailin just took a sip, she was not used to the strong burning sensation of liquor.But look at Wei Jun.Actually drank most of the glass of liquor in one gulp. After Wei Jun finished drinking, he looked at Yu Kailin's cup. "Why didn't you drink?" "I... I'm really not used to liquor." "Look, I drank such a big cup, you have to drink half of it, or else you look down on me." Wei Jun said half-jokingly. Yu Kailin had no choice but to bite the bullet and drank half of the wine in the glass, frowning from the hot alcohol. "Oh, that's right." Wei Jun said with satisfaction, "Okay, I won't advise you on the rest, just drink slowly, just finish what's in the cup tonight." He poured more than half a cup into his own cup. Yu Kailin rarely drinks alcohol, especially liquor with such a high alcohol content.She didn't have a lot of alcohol in the first place, and she drank too much, and she didn't eat anything before—gradually, she felt dizzy and her stomach felt a little uncomfortable.At first he could barely talk to Wei Jun, but later he couldn't hear anything clearly, and propped his head on his palms in a dizzy state, feeling drowsy.Suddenly, she felt nauseous, and the food and wine that she had eaten earlier rushed into her throat, and she was about to come out, so she quickly covered her mouth with her hands, and staggered towards the bathroom. "Yo, that's not good." Knowing that Yu Kailin was about to vomit, Wei Jun quickly put down his wine glass, and quickly walked over to support her.When they arrived at the sink in the bathroom, Yu Kailin vomited out with a "wow", and Wei Jun patted her on the back gently beside her. After vomiting for a while, my stomach was empty and I was much more awake.Yu Kailin took several handfuls of cold water to rinse her mouth, soaked a towel and washed her face with cold water, and finally felt much better.Wei Jun helped her to sit on the sofa outside. Yu Kailin leaned her head back on the sofa back, Wei Jun poured a glass of warm water over, Yu Kailin took it and drank it.Wei Jun asked, "How is it? Are you feeling better now?" "Hmm." Yu Kailin blushed. "Sister Juan, I'm so sorry... I lost your appetite." "Where is it? Don't blame me for forcing you to drink white wine. Well, if I knew you couldn't drink it, I wouldn't persuade you to drink it." "I rarely drink liquor." "It can be seen that this little drink will put you down." Wei Jun said with a smile. Yu Kailin barely managed to stand up. "There's watermelon in the refrigerator, I'll go and cut it." "You sit down, let me come." Wei Jun pressed Yu Kailin's shoulder, stood up and walked towards the refrigerator. After a while, Wei Jun came out of the kitchen with a sliced ​​watermelon.Yu Kailin's stomach was burning, and she just wanted to eat something cold and refreshing to calm down, so she ate several pieces of watermelon one after another. Now, Yu Kailin's stomach is much more comfortable, but her head is still a little dizzy.She said, "It's a good thing tomorrow is Sunday, otherwise I might not be able to get up and go to work in this situation." "It's not such an exaggeration. You've never been drunk, have you? Just sleep for one night." Wei Jun said, "By the way, it's been so long, and I still don't know which company you work for." "An interior design company is nearby." Yu Kailin took out a business card from the purse next to her, and handed it to Wei Jun with both hands. "Yo, so you are a senior designer, it's not easy!" Wei Jun looked at the introduction on the business card and opened his eyes wide. "What, it's just working with the boss." Yu Kailin laughed at herself. Wei Jun looked at the business card, then at Yu Kailin's handsome face, showing an incomprehensible expression. "There's one thing I really can't figure out. How can a beauty like you and a senior white-collar worker not have a boyfriend?" Yu Kailin's lips trembled slightly, and a dim light flashed in her bright eyes. Wei Jun caught this subtle expression, and his heart immediately became more or less clear. The desire to know other people's privacy was like fingernails gently scratching at the tip of her heart, which made her itch.She tentatively asked, "It's not that you don't have a boyfriend, but you're having a conflict with him, right?" Yu Kailin didn't want to talk about these things at first, but maybe because of drinking, she suddenly had a strong desire to tell others.The melancholy, sadness and resentment that had been suppressed for a long time came to my heart at the same time, and the words had already reached my lips, and I couldn't spit them out quickly. "Yes, I had a boyfriend before. But the reason why we broke up... It's not as simple as ordinary lovers having conflicts..." When Wei Jun heard her start talking, he was completely relieved.She knew that for all those who wanted to confide in their hearts, once they started, it was impossible to stop. "What's the matter?" she asked in a concerned tone. Yu Kailin leaned back against the sofa cushions, staring at the opposite wall in a daze, obviously lost in memories. "Originally, our relationship was very good. Although we only knew each other for more than a month, I thought this was the man in my life, and he was worthy of my entrustment for the rest of my life. I handed it over to him, and lived with him, and lived with him. I love him very much, and I took it for granted that I was the only one in his heart...I didn't realize how naive I was until more than a week ago..." "What happened?" "That day was the same as today, and it was also a weekend. I should have rested, but the company had an urgent task that required several of our designers to work overtime. I worked overtime in the company until the evening... "During the period, I called him several times, telling him not to wait for me for dinner, and saying that I might be a little late to go back. He said that he wanted to go to the movies with me, but now he had to go alone. I was I still feel a little guilty, and I just want to go back to accompany him as soon as possible. "Around ten o'clock in the evening, my colleagues and I finally finished the task. I was going to go home immediately, but my colleagues suggested to have a midnight snack. I was really hungry, so I went with them. When passing by a street , I inadvertently glanced at a dark and narrow alley next to me, and found a familiar figure." "Is it your boyfriend?" Wei Jun asked intently, "What is he doing there?" Yu Kailin bit her lower lip tightly, and the next memory made her extremely painful. "He... hugged a woman with heavy makeup and dyed blonde hair, regardless of how bad the surrounding environment was, just because there was a trash can as a cover, he and the woman caressed and kissed each other shamelessly. The woman was dressed in gaudy clothes, with mesh black pantyhose on her legs, and low-quality platform high-heeled shoes on her feet... I knew who she was at a glance." "You think she's a prostitute?" Wei Jun stared at her. "You think your boyfriend is messing with whores?" Yu Kailin smiled wryly. "Is there any doubt about it? The facts are in plain sight. Nothing could be more obvious." "Did you go over and question him on the spot?" "No. They were leaning against the wall, his back was to me, I didn't see his face, I just recognized the clothes he was wearing. I still had a little bit of luck left in my heart at the time, hoping it was just someone with similarities to him. The man in the back—I still fantasize that it's not him." "Then how did you know for sure?" "I hid to the side, took out my cell phone, and called him. When I heard his cell phone ringing from the dark alley, I felt as if I had fallen into an icehouse, and all my energy and energy were lost in an instant. I couldn't say a word, hung up the phone immediately, and ran home crying all the way with humiliation and anger." "Later, when he came back. How did he explain it to you?" "Does he still have room to explain? He understands that I have seen everything, and lying and justifying have lost their meaning. He can only kneel in front of me and say that he is just lonely for a while, so he can't help contaminating that kind of woman. He begged I can forgive his momentary confusion." "So he admits he's looking for a whore?" "Yes. He said that because they are prostitutes, he will not have the slightest affection for them. He is only cheating physically, but he is loyal to me alone in his heart..." "Don't believe his nonsense!" Wei Jun roared suddenly, furious. "These despicable and vile stinking men who have received thousands of knives! They are dirtier and lower than the rats in the gutter! They don't deserve any sympathy and should die! Go down to the eighteenth floor of hell and be torn to pieces by evil spirits! " Yu Kailin stared blankly at Wei Jun who was suddenly furious, not understanding why she reacted so violently.Yu Kailin was dumbfounded by her exposed veins and ferocious face, and the last bit of alcohol was scared awake. "Sister Juan, what's wrong with you?" She asked carefully. Wei Jun looked at Yu Kailin, as if realizing that she had lost her composure, she adjusted her emotions and tried her best to calm herself down. "Oh, it's nothing, it's just...the things you told me reminded me of something from the past," she said, still panting. "Have you ever had a similar experience?" "Well...but I don't want to recall it, and I don't want to talk about it," she said, staring at the floor. Yu Kailin quickly said: "It's okay, sister Juan, I know these things are very heartbreaking. If you don't want to talk about it, don't think about it. It's best to forget these things. At least... that's what I did. " Wei Jun turned to look at her. "That's why you left him and moved here?" "yes." "Then did he come to see you later?" "...Come here, he said brazenly that he would not give up pursuing me, and hoped that I could go back and continue to live with him. But I told him, this is impossible. I have given up on him." "You really give up on him?" Yu Kailin hesitated for a second or two. "Yes. I think since he will do this kind of behavior, there will be a second time if there is a first time, just like a scar that heals and forgets the pain. And this incident really changed my attitude towards him completely. In my opinion, I think he has become dirty both physically and mentally." Wei Jun stared at Yu Kailin, nodded slightly and said, "You're right, that's how it should be." There was a moment of silence in the room.Neither woman could find anything to say. In order to relieve the dull atmosphere, Yu Kailin greeted Wei Jun: "Sister Jun, eat watermelon." "Don't eat, I'm going back." Wei Jun stood up, looking at the messy dining table. "Do you want me to clean it up for you?" "No, no." Yu Kailin waved her hands and said, "I'll do it myself." "Alright then." Wei Jun picked up the plastic plate with watermelon rinds on the coffee table. "I'll take the trash out for you and throw it away. Leaving the watermelon rind in the trash can will attract flies." "Thank you, Miss Juan." Yu Kailin said. Wei Jun walked to the trash can with a plastic tray, stepped on the lid of the trash can, and was about to pour the watermelon rind into it when he suddenly saw something in the trash can, and his already peaceful face sank again. Seeing Wei Jun's expression suddenly changed, Yu Kailin felt a little strange.He came over and asked, "What's the matter, sister Juan?" At the same time, he looked into the trash can. Ah - she cried out in her heart - oh my god, there are some fried pancakes sent by Wei Jun in the trash can!After Meng Xiaoxue fell down that day, I completely forgot about it! Yu Kailin was extremely embarrassed, and explained awkwardly: "Sister Juan...I'm so sorry, I thought the fried pancakes were delicious, but they were too greasy, so I just..." "It's nothing." Wei Jun said coldly, "I'm just being sentimental." Yu Kailin blushed. "No, Miss Juan, that's not the case..." Wei Jun handed Yu Kailin the plastic plate containing the watermelon rind, then squatted down, reached into the trash can with both hands, and picked up the fried cakes. Yu Kailin stared at her dumbfounded, stunned: "Sister Juan... what are you doing?" Wei Jun glanced at her and said darkly: "It's nothing, if you don't eat it, I'll feed it to the dogs. It would be a pity not to waste it." This cold and sarcastic remark was like an ice pick that pierced Yu Kailin's heart hard. Wei Jun didn't even say hello, took the fried pancakes, opened the door and went out. Yu Kailin's whole body seemed to be paralyzed, and she slowly slid down the wall, sitting on the floor with a dull expression, motionless.After a long time, she covered her face with her hands and sobbed. The tears flowing silently down her cheeks contained her chilling, regret, guilt and grievance.It never occurred to her—everything was handled fairly well—that the harmonious atmosphere that she had worked so hard to create disappeared at the last moment.She had never experienced such a strong sense of frustration. At this moment, only the diary is her most loyal and reliable friend, it can tolerate and understand all her difficulties.With tears in her eyes, Yu Kailin recorded the grievance and sadness in her heart. After tidying up the tableware, cups and plates, she was exhausted physically and mentally, and she just wanted to take a hot bath and then go to bed to rest. Yu Kailin stood under the steaming shower head, she never imagined that through a piece of glass, a pair of vicious eyes were staring at her. After falling asleep that night, she heard the sound of running from the next door.It was still half past eleven. The sound was a little louder than last time.Shows that she's running heavy. Yu Kailin suddenly remembered that the last time she heard the sound of running, she refused to drink Wei Jun's tea; and this time, something like this happened again... Could running around the house mean she was angry?And does this mean something bad? Yu Kailin suddenly felt chills all over her body.
