Criminal Investigation Notes
Chapter 74:
The poet's job is not to describe what has happened, but to describe what could happen. - Aristotle
After a night's sleep, Lu Jun woke up late and went out early to run around the community twice as usual.
When he came back to take a bath, he felt that he was a little too nervous. It was just a star made of paper. The same paper was easy to buy. This kind of star was popular for a while, and it was as common as a thousand paper cranes.
All he found was a star, which had been placed among the clutter, perhaps by chance.
He couldn't confirm anything with a single star.
Moreover, he didn't know how to ask Su Hui, and when he did, what kind of answer would he hear...
Lu Junchi felt that he was thinking too much.
It's over, it's over.
The poet is dead.
He can't be trapped in the past by those things, life is moving forward, and now everything has finally calmed down, he doesn't want to break this balance.
It is unfair to the present and future people if you keep thinking about the past and the past.
Today is Sunday, and it is difficult to have a rest day that is not busy. Su Hui slept until noon before getting up. He ate lunch and read a book for a while. In the afternoon, he went into the house and went to sleep for a while, and then it was time for dinner.
He has been particularly lethargic recently. On rest days, he slept an average of 12 to 14 hours a day.
Lu Junchi had washed his clothes, cleaned the house, dragged the floor, and was cooking something in the kitchen. I saw him come out and said to him, "Dinner can be ready at any time. The courier brought it back to you. It should be your new puzzle."
Lu Junchi was a little worried that Su Hui would leave a psychological shadow because of An Yuci's resignation, but it seemed that Su Hui was not too sad. At this time, Lu Junchi was thankful for Su Hui's indifference. Wrap it up so that he doesn't suffer more damage.
Su Hui opened the courier, his white **** has been completed, and the new puzzle has arrived. This time he sold EHTACCIDENT by YELLDESIGN.
The puzzle is called Accident, and the whole puzzle is like a broken piece of clear glass.
After opening it, the puzzle was completely transparent, and each piece was different in size and very messy. The puzzle was poured out and placed on the table. Su Hui looked a little hard.
Lu Junchi brought out the dishes from the kitchen: "Eat first, and then you can fight when you're done."
Su Hui felt a little embarrassed to see him busy: "I'll help you."
Lu Jun resigned late: "Don't, don't burn you when you look back, just wait and eat."
Su Hui snorted. He looked at the courier box he had removed before, got up and smeared the address on it, then opened the door and put the box in the corridor.
If it was in the past, Su Hui would never do these things. The cardboard boxes were piled up at random, and they had to be cleaned up collectively at a certain time.
But now, the house was cleaned by Lu Junchi. He felt that this mess was destroying the fruits of Lu Junchi's labor, so he took the initiative to do something.
By the time he sat down at the table, the food was already served.
Su Hui smelled a burst of aroma, lowered his head, and found that today's main course was soup. The soup was brown, and some black things could be vaguely seen. He scooped up and identified: "This is... black chicken soup?"
Lu Jun sat beside him late and filled him with a bowl of steaming black chicken soup: "Yes, black chicken can be warmed up, you drink more to replenish your body."
Su Hui picked up the spoon and blew it and took a sip. The black chicken soup was very light and in line with his taste.
Then he thought back, he drank crucian carp soup yesterday and pig trotter soup a few days ago.
Su Hui suddenly had an illusion...
Where did Lu Junchi get his confinement recipes?
After they finished eating, Lu Junchi cleaned up the dishes and added cat food to Aristotle's cat food bowl.
Unlike usual, Aristotle didn't come over to enjoy his dinner, and the whole house was a little too quiet.
Lu Junchi felt a little strange and asked Su back, "Have you seen Aristotle?"
Su Hui had already sat down on the sofa, staring intently at the piece of puzzle in front of him. At this time, Lu Jun asked lately before raising his head: "No. I don't seem to have seen it for a while."
Lu Junchi is not in a hurry, isn't he just looking for a cat, this is basically a compulsory course for every cat slave, and he is also very experienced in this.
Lu Junchi started to flip through the clothes on the sofa, no.
Cat litter behind the TV, no.
In the bathroom, there is no...
Aristotle looked at the places where Aristotle used to stay, and the cat was still missing.
Su Hui also felt a little unusual when he saw Lu Junchi walking back and forth in the house.
Lu Junchi searched again to no avail. He walked back to the living room and asked Su Hui, "The cat doesn't seem to be at home. Did you go out just now?"
"No..." After Su Hui replied, he paused and suddenly remembered something while pinching the puzzle with his fingers. He raised his head again, "I just put the puzzle box in the corridor just now..."
Thinking about it carefully now, he seemed to feel a black shadow jumping out in front of him at that time. Thinking of this, Su Hui's face changed slightly. He didn't hold the puzzle in his hand and suddenly fell on the table.
Su Hui got up in a panic, but this time he bumped into the box where the puzzle was placed. With a clatter, half of the puzzle box fell to the ground.
Su Hui didn't care about picking it up: "Maybe the cat slipped out when I opened the door..."
Lu Junchi picked up his coat and said, "Don't worry, I'll go downstairs and look for it."
Su Hui said, "I'll look for it too."
The cat was gone, he was restless, and it was a torment to let him wait for news at home.
When the two cat slaves went out, Lu Junchi remembered reading it online, and said to Su Hui, "Some cats will run up the stairs. I'll look for the top, you look for the bottom, and we'll meet downstairs later."
Su Hui kept looking down from the upstairs safety passage, and found the first floor from the tenth floor. The property inspection here is strict, and no sundries are allowed in the safety passage. He walked all the way down and did not see the small figure.
Soon, Lu Junchi also went down to the garage and shook his head at him.
There were several cars parked in the underground garage downstairs, and the two of them turned around one by one.
They went from the exit to the ground again, and it was already getting dark by this time.
There were many cars in the yard, and some were connected with low shrubs. Su Hui knelt directly on the ground, turned on the flashlight mode of his mobile phone, and made a meowing sound at the dark bottom of the car.
Lu Jun looked back and suddenly felt a little pain in his heart.
Su Hui was clearly looking for a cat, but he himself seemed to be a lost cat and could not find his home.
Su Hui looked at a few cars, and stumbled when he was about to kneel again.
Lu Jun walked over late, held Su Hui, and patted the soil on his knees for him.
Su Hui raised his head in a daze, and said to him, "I lost Aristotle." His final voice didn't want to be as calm as before, there was a little tremor, and there was an unconcealed panic in his eyes.
He continued worriedly: "Will Aristotle be in danger? What if he encounters a bad guy? What if someone abuses a cat? What if he's hungry?"
At that moment, Lu Junchi looked at him and suddenly had a strange feeling in his heart. He wanted to comfort Su Hui, but he felt that all the words were a bit redundant. In the end, he approached him, stretched out his hand, wrapped one hand around his thin body, and patted his back lightly with the other hand.
It was a light hug that would not cause distractions. The night wind blowing was blocked by Lu Junchi, and Su Hui felt a little warmer in his chest.
The hug calmed him down from his panic.
Lu Junchi only hugged him and then released him in a hurry. He took a step back and said, "It's getting dark, I'll look for it. You sit next to it and take a break and think about where the cat will go. We will definitely find it. ."
Lu Jun went to ask the security guards in the community late, and then looked around the whole community. At first, he felt a little out of breath, but then he let go and called Aristotle all the way.
It was dinner time now, and many people who had eaten early had already come out for a walk, and they all showed strange expressions when they heard his name.
A few children ran over curiously and asked, "Big brother, what are you looking for?"
Lu Junchi showed them the picture of Aristotle, and some kind people searched for the cat with him.
After searching for an hour or so, the cat was still not found.
Lu Junchi reluctantly began to use criminal investigation methods. He went to the security room to obtain surveillance video. After searching for a while, the small figure appeared on the surveillance. The video captured Aristotle slipping out of the building door at dinner time. Then disappeared from the surveillance.
Lu Junchi counted that if Aristotle had gone out since then, this period of time would be enough to disappear without a trace.
He thought about Su Hui and walked back.
Su Hui was sitting on the bench downstairs, the sky was getting dark, and the street lights in the community were on, illuminating a small area around him.
His memory became clear.
Aristotle was picked up by him from school, when he had just gone to China to report. Life has not been sorted out, everything is in chaos.
It was raining that day, he got lost in the school, and he didn't want to ask the students for directions, so he walked to the dormitory building on campus for some reason, and then he heard a subtle sound, the trees on the side were moving, mixed with There was a weak cat meowing, and he followed the sound for a while before he saw Aristotle emerge from the bushes, his small body, trembling slightly, only half his size now.
It accompanies him to the light, until it reaches the teaching building.
Su Hui couldn't help squatting down, and the kitten ran in front of him. He reached out and hugged the cat. It was a warm little ball, shivering in his palm.
At that moment, a sentence suddenly appeared in Su Hui's mind: I can't save yesterday, but I can grasp today.
That's Aristotle's famous quote.
Since then the cat has a name.
There was a time in the past when Su Hui's memory was a bit confusing, he couldn't remember it, but now he suddenly remembered it.
The last time Aristotle was lost, his depersonalization was at its worst. He had no sense of the whole world, but was a little anxious and didn't feel too anxious.
For a long time in the past, he has gradually accepted that he is a heartless and ruthless person, he has blocked all his feelings and emotions, and he feels that he can live well by himself.
But recently, his depersonalization has improved a lot.
The protective layer that shielded emotions seemed to have failed, and all emotions returned to his body, and he began to feel the joys, sorrows and sorrows of the world.
When he lost the cat, he began to feel flustered, and the discomfort was indescribable.
He remembered that it was a small cat, fluffy, with big eyes, and especially liked to crawl into his quilt.
Sometimes when he was reading, Aristotle would suddenly jump over, lie on his lap, and rub his head against his hand.
If he's too focused on what he's doing, it'll get a little jealous and try to attract the owner's attention.
It was such a clingy and beautiful little thing.
It is used to being raised at home, can it adapt to life outside? Will you be caught? Will it be hit by a car? Will there be danger? Will you be chased by dogs?
Su Hui felt that it was his responsibility to lose the cat, and was full of self-blame.
He just bought a puzzle called Accident and the cat lost it.
It would have been nice if he didn't take that cardboard box at that time.
It would be nice if the cat ran out and he found out the first time.
When Su Hui raised his head, he saw a lot of people walking. Those people were all in twos and threes, their faces could not be seen clearly, and the conversation could not be heard clearly, but it could be guessed that they were talking and laughing.
He found out that he didn't know any of those people.
A thread in his head suddenly snapped.
Like an iceberg suddenly collapsed.
He seems to have nothing to do with this world.
His parents have passed away, and there is nothing left in the family, and now even the cat has left him.
Maybe he'll never get that little thing back.
Su Hui was suddenly enveloped in an inexplicable feeling.
It was the chill that came from the bottom of his heart, making his whole body tremble.
He realized what this uncomfortable feeling was, it should be loneliness...
When he understood the true meaning of the word, he was so sad that he wanted to cry.
Su Hui is like a babbling child. For the first time, he has experienced the emotions of the human world. He has experienced the death of a relative and learned the truth of life.
Then he raised his head, and in his hazy vision, he saw a figure.
Su Hui realized that it was Lu Jun who came back late.
At that moment, he suddenly remembered the hug Lu Junchi had just given him.
The collapse of the world stopped.
He felt better, even if the cat was gone, at least he still had a roommate...
Lu Jun came back late and saw Su Hui still sitting on the bench downstairs, his handsome face was expressionless, but his eyes were red.
He could feel that the cat was very important to Su Hui, and the loss of the cat touched him a lot.
Su Hui raised his head and saw that he came back empty-handed and knew that the cat was not found, his eyelashes blinked, his expression a little lost.
Lu Junchi explained to him: "I've looked everywhere I can, but I don't know where to go. It's too late now. Let's go home first and discuss what to do."
Su Hui snorted. There is no way to search for it so aimlessly. Tomorrow is a working day, and I have to go to work.
Su Hui even had a hope in his heart that Aristotle could recognize the door. During the time they were searching, maybe the cat had returned to the door by himself.
He also thought, maybe the cats have been staying in the house, in the washing machine, in the cupboards, waiting for them to get back, and they will come out of nowhere and meow at him.
If that's the case, he will pretend to be angry, he must not hold it right away, he will let it cool for a while and then forgive it.
The moment the elevator opened, Su Hui looked at the empty door and felt that there was something missing in his heart.
The house was still quiet, and there was no change from when they left. Su Hui had to face this fact.
The cat...was really gone.
Lu Junchi was still calm, and he replied to Su: "I have a photo of Aristotle here. I will make a cat-hunting revelation and post it in the yard."
Su Hui hummed, the cat-hunting revelation was definitely going to be sent.
When Lu Junchi said this, he asked Su Hui again, "Why do you think it left home today?"
"Maybe I've been bored at home for too long? Or maybe it's because we've been too busy recently and it hasn't been taken seriously?" Su Hui sat at the dining table and analyzed, feeling that he and Lu Junchi were like lost old fathers with two children.
Lu Junchi asked again: "Then where do you think he will go?"
Su Hui thought: "Enjoy freedom? Go to the yard... to find other cat companions? Or... does it miss its mother and other siblings? Want to see where he was born and lived? "
He couldn't help having an occupational disease, and Lu Jun parsed it as soon as he asked him.
Then Su Hui pressed his temples and said with some headache: "Cats are not human, and this is a righteous and kind cat, not an evil murderous cat. The criminal psychology profile of prisoners is not easy to use..."
Lu Junchi comforted: "Don't worry, we are just predicting its location based on its behavior. This point is similar to that of a cat. 72 hours is the prime time to find a cat. Tell me about the last time a cat was lost. What's the situation?" He also heard Su Hui say that the cat was thrown once before, but he didn't tell him the details.
Su Hui lowered his head and recalled: "It has been lost for more than a day since it was lost last time. The next day, it was sent by a student from the Chinese police."
Hearing this, Lu Junchi seriously deduced: "This means that it may know the way to school?"
"I picked it up from school, it's its home, and it should have lived there for a while. Isn't it homesick?"
Lu Junchi continued: "What else is characteristic of its behavior?"
Su Hui thought back and said, "He likes small corners and boxes, maybe because I threw the box, he thought it was something he liked, so he went out."
When Su Hui said this, he was a little worried, "Should we try not to close the door at night? Otherwise, it might not be able to get in by itself."
Lu Junchi continued to comfort him: "Don't worry, sometimes cats are more adaptable than people... Which cat owner has never experienced a cat running away and lost it? Most cats will come back safely."
Hearing his relief, Su Hui lowered his head and smiled bitterly and said, "You are right, in the past, when it didn't have me, it lived well. It's not so much that it needs me, it's better that I need it... "
For a long time in the past, this cat was his spiritual sustenance and his connection to the world.
So the loss of it made him, who had always been calm, lose his footing.
Although Lu Junchi was also very worried, he knew that he couldn't be in a hurry or panic when looking for a cat.
After comforting Su Hui, he quickly made a cat-hunting revelation, with photos of Aristotle's front, side, and back on it, and the size, age, and physical characteristics of the cat.
He warmed a glass of milk for Su Hui, and then showed him the cat-hunting revelation: "Is there anything else I need to add?"
Su Hui felt as if he had come out of that state of restlessness, and carefully looked at the cat-hunting revelation: "There's nothing left, you wrote very well."
Lu Junchi sat across from him: "I've experienced the matter of throwing things many times since I was a child, not to mention my dog running away every now and then, even my brother has thrown it twice, and every time I was shocked. There is no danger, as a master, you must first firmly believe that it will definitely come back. This is a process of confrontation between reality and hope, as long as there is hope, it will be found. "
Su Hui drank the milk and gave a low hum, and then he said, "Thank you, I'm a little panicked. I really don't know what to do without you."
With his eyes, Lu Junchi's heart softened, and he said, "I checked some ways to find cats on the Internet. There is also the scissors method, I will try it later."
As a policeman, he didn't believe in these metaphysics at all, but when things happened, he found that this kind of thing was not for God or for cats.
As long as these efforts are made, it is a great comfort to the master.
Lu Junchi turned his head to the side, and suddenly found that there was a little dust on Su Hui's face, which may have been accidentally rubbed on it when he was looking for the cat just now.
He couldn't help but stretched out his hand and wiped it with his fingertips.
Su Hui raised his head to look at him, his cheek rubbed against his fingertips for a moment, and he could feel the warmth of Lu Junchi's fingers.
This warmth dispelled the confusion in his heart caused by losing the cat.
Lu Junchi first sent a cat-hunting revelation to the owners, and then knocked on Lu Haochu on the Internet.
"Have you seen Aristotle in Teacher Su's house?"
Lu Haochu immediately replied: "I saw it, what? Did it get lost again?"
Lu Junchi posted the cat-hunting revelation to him, "Help me post it, and find a reward."
Lu Hao said at the beginning: "Don't worry, foster younger brother Qian Ri, use younger brother for a while, do your best, and then die!"
