"The bad news is that once he finishes painting, he is likely to hide in a place where no one can find him." Qin He's voice continued, "If we confirm the suspect's identity, the task force will eventually issue a wanted order as a Can you accept the ending?"

Everyone is silent. It would be best if he could be caught. The murderer is very harmful to society. Although the motive for committing the crime has been figured out, no one can guarantee that he will continue to kill on a whim one day because of other motives.

"Director Geng, Team Qin, and Xia Qingwen from the Imperial City don't seem to have been to places like art exhibitions and painting exhibitions?"

Chen Yi had been studying the files and didn't even listen to Qin He's words. After reading it several times, he raised a question at this moment.

Hearing this, Geng Jianqing's thoughts were interrupted. He raised his head and said, "I don't remember that I have never been there. What do you think of Qin He?"

Qin He recalled briefly and said: "I haven't been there. She is just a professional in art. Her activities outside school are not related to painting, or we didn't find out about it back then."

Geng Jianqing: "Chen Zhi, have you thought of anything?"

Chen Yi said: "Since I haven't found it, I probably haven't been there. For Xia Qingwen, painting is just a subject and a tool for getting into university. When something becomes a major or a career, it is an interest for normal people." It will get lower and lower.”

"There is a very good hypothesis. If all subjects in school are games, will all teenagers become academic masters?"

"The answer is no. Once the game becomes a subject and becomes something that teachers and parents force you to master, the results will not change. There will still be academic gurus in the school, there will still be academic overlords, and there will still be countless scumbags."

"For poor students, turning a game into a subject is poison. They will want to vomit just looking at it. However, the top students will always be top-notch and will not change in any way because of the teaching content."

Geng Jianqing: "What do you want to express? Just say it."

Chen Yi: "I have read all the files repeatedly. Fang Dandan and Zhao Xiaoyan from Jincheng have been to art exhibitions, Bi Xuelan from Ningcheng has been to art exhibitions, not to mention Cai Wenwen from Yangcheng. They will go whenever they have time. Only Xia Qingwen has never been there."

"What I want to say is how Xia Qingwen met the murderer."

Geng Jianqing was thinking, and Qin He blurted out: "In the school, right? It seems that it can only be in the school if it is related to painting?"

Chen Yi shook his head slightly: "I thought about the school, but we ignored the time when the special incident occurred. During the days when Xia Qingwen's brother died, she was not on campus most of the time. If the murderer targeted Xia Qingwen as the target of the crime, Most likely it’s outside the school.”

Qin He thought for a moment and said, "It makes sense. If it was outside the school, under what circumstances could the murderer contact Xia Qingwen?"

Geng Jianqing felt that Chen Yi should have deduced important clues from the dossier, and asked with some urgency: "Chen Yi, have you got the result? Let me tell you the conclusion first."

Chen Yi: "Hospital."

Hospital?

Several people looked at each other. Why did they jump from the field of painting directly to the hospital out of thin air? The transfer was a bit fast. What is the basis?

Every reasonable inference must be supported by evidence. What is the basis for Chen Yi to say the word "hospital"?

Geng Jianqing pressed, and Chen Yi explained: "Looking at five cases in eight years, the only breakthrough I can find is Xia Qingwen. There are two main reasons for the hospital's judgment."

"First, Xia Qingwen's younger brother died of illness. During that time, Xia Qingwen's activity trajectory was very simple: home, hospital, funeral parlor, cemetery. The hospital where she stayed the longest was definitely the hospital. Her brother died of chronic illness."

"Second, don't forget the murderer's modus operandi. He possesses triazolam and sevoflurane. These two things cannot be obtained casually. Where can a painter get such things? It doesn't matter. If you buy it illegally privately, it can only be a hospital."

"Adding many clues together, I am leaning toward the hospital."

After listening to Chen Yi's words, Geng Jianqing's eyes lit up: "That's good! The murderer has psychological problems. We don't know about the others. Severe obsessive-compulsive disorder is definitely one of them. He may need antipsychotic drugs!"

"Triazolam can be prescribed. If he visits the hospital regularly and reasonably...with his IQ, it is not impossible to order sevoflurane casually."

"The hospital where Xia Qingwen's brother died!"

"Qin He, call immediately to confirm and get all the medical records from the time of the incident to the time Xia Qingwen's brother was hospitalized. Hurry!"

Qin He quickly took out his cell phone: "Yes, Bureau Geng."

In order not to disturb the task force's continued meeting, he stood up and left the office.

In the room, Geng Jianqing looked at Chen Yi: "If the murderer has really been to that hospital, he will definitely be found after an investigation. How confident are you personally?"

Chen Yi: "Fifty percent."

Geng Jianqing frowned: "It's a bit low, but investigating the case is a gamble, betting that every trial and error will succeed."

On the other side, Xie Yunzhi hesitated and couldn't help but said: "Well... I have a question. The other five deceased, including Qu Chuan, were all related to painting. Fang Dandan went to the art exhibition, and Zhao Xiaoyan's younger brother also went there if he liked painting. After the art exhibition, Bi Xuelan accompanied her daughter to the exhibition hall, Cai Wenwen loves painting, Qu Chuan is a painter himself, but what about Xia Qingwen?"

The two understood what he meant. Although Xia Qingwen studied art, it was unlikely that he would have anything to do with painting in the hospital.

Is the only basis for the murderer to choose the target of the crime? As long as you see someone in a bad mood, you will target it as a "sacrifice" for [Sorrow]?

Geng Jianqing couldn't answer this question and looked at Chen Yi.

Chen Yi said: "I was thinking about this just now. If I chose Xia Qingwen just because of my emotions, how could I meet her to study art by chance... I want to make a call and ask."

Geng Jianqing: "Who to call?"

Chen Yi: "Xia Qingwen's parents."

Geng Jianqing: "Okay."

After receiving the consent, Chen Yi dialed the mobile phone number left in the file. The call was quickly connected. The other party was Xia Qingwen's father.

"Hello?"

The man's voice was weak, and the death of his children was a lifetime of suffering for him.

Counting Quchuan in this case, there were six families. The murderer completely destroyed six families. The one who impressed Chen Yi the most was still Zhou Yumeng of Ningcheng.

It was hard for him to forget the scene of the girl crying while hugging the tombstone.

No one knows what the murderer went through in his early years. No one knows what his family background is. Maybe he is a pitiful person, but his hatefulness has reached the level of anger and resentment.

He must be caught.

"Hello Mr. Xia, this is the Yangcheng City Bureau. I am Chen Yi, the captain of the Yangcheng Criminal Investigation Detachment. I am calling you to find out about your daughter Xia Qingwen. I am really sorry for bringing up your pain again."

Father Xia was silent for a while and said, "Yangcheng? My daughter was killed in the Imperial City. What happened in Guanyang City?"

Chen Yi: "The murderer killed more than one person. Our police have set up a special task force."

Father Xia was surprised: "What?! I...this...is really a beast!!"

Chen Yi followed Xia's father and said, "He is indeed not a good person. We have got clues about the murderer and want to talk to you..."

Father Xia interrupted: "What did you say? Got a clue? Who is he? Why did he kill my daughter?!"

Chen Yi: "Mr. Xia, please don't get excited. The case is still under investigation. Can you answer a few questions for me first?"

Xia's father's memory was brought back to four years ago, as if he hadn't heard Chen Yi's words: "It's been four years... you haven't given up yet, thank you, thank you..."

It can be heard that this father is a very rational and good communicator.

The families of the victims in each case are different. If they are unable to control their emotions, they may say some bad things to the police.

For example: The murderer has not been caught in four years. What on earth are you police doing for a living? You are not doing real work with the salary paid by the state.

To make matters worse, there may be trash and the like.

Don't think that they dare not scold the police. The grief of their loved ones being killed will destroy all reason. They cannot vent their anger to the murderer and can only transfer their anger.

Therefore, Chen Yi has always respected Wu Youde in the bureau, and the opponent is also quite difficult.

"It's our responsibility, Mr. Xia said it hard." Chen Yi said.

Father Xia: "What did you ask just now?"

Chen Yi: "I haven't asked yet. I'm sorry to mention your son. When your son passed away, he was in the hospital, right?"

Father Xia: "Yes, it's in the hospital."

Chen Yi: "The whole family is here? Including Xia Qingwen."

Father Xia: "Everyone is here."

Chen Yi: "Please carefully recall whether any strangers had contact with Xia Qingwen in the hospital."

After the phone was quiet for a long time, Xia's father's voice rang: "I'm sorry, I don't remember. At that time, all my thoughts... were on my son. He... ugh."

Suffering always finds ordinary people, which is a very helpless thing.

Chen Yi: "Do you still remember everything Xia Qingwen did in the hospital?"

Father Xia: "She didn't do anything. She just sat there and cried."

Chen Yi: "Where are you sitting? In the ward?"

Father Xia: "The ward, the corridor of the operating room, the entrance of the hospital... I kept crying no matter where I was. The relationship between their siblings is very good."

Chen Yi: "Besides crying, what else have you done?"

Father Xia: "Paint."

Um? !

The word "painting" rushed into Chen Yi's mind, opening up all his thinking nerves and making his brain explode with a bang.

"Where is she painting??" Chen Yi asked.

Hearing this, Geng Jianqing and Xie Yunzhi couldn't sit still and almost stood up.

The word "painting" is too sensitive for this case.

Xia's father: "During the last operation, Qingwen was painting outside the operating room, painting her brother, and crying while painting."

Chen Yi's pupils slowly opened wide, and a realistic dynamic picture was automatically sketched in his mind.

Outside the serious corridor of the operating room, a sad Xia Qingwen sat on a cold chair, holding a paintbrush to describe his brother's past and memories about his brother, tears falling uncontrollably.

As far as the eye could see, a thin man stood there quietly, watching Xia Qingwen's white jade hands flying on the drawing paper, and tears might even drip on the drawing paper.

This is living [sorrow].

The murderer's creative passion began to burst out, and the sharp weapon was almost unstoppable.

"Officer, are you still there?"

Chen Yi didn't speak for a long time, and Xia's father asked.

Chen Yi: "Yes, I'm here."

Father Xia: "Are my words useful to you? Do you have any other questions?"

Chen Yi: "I think... there should be no more."

Father Xia: "Huh?"

Chen Yi: "Mr. Xia, thank you very much for cooperating with our work. On behalf of the Criminal Investigation Detachment of Yangcheng City Bureau, I assure you that the murderer will be caught."

Xia's father choked with sobs: "Thank you... thank you!"

The phone hangs up.

Chen Yi put down his cell phone and touched the cigarette case in front of him.

He took out a cigarette and held it in his mouth, then looked at Geng Jianqing and Xie Yunzhi: "General Geng, Xie Zhi, we caught his tail. He must have been to that hospital."

Hearing this, Xie Yunzhi slammed the table: "How beautiful! I finally found him!"

Geng Jianqing raised his hand: "Calm down, you must be calm, and wait for the results of Qin He's investigation."

Having said that, there was a major breakthrough in the case at the critical moment, and his expression reflected his inner unrest.

The seventh painting hasn't appeared yet, so it's relatively easy to lock down the suspect's identity in advance and arrest him.

Blockade Yangcheng and search in the urn, even if all the police in the city are mobilized, they must find him.

Chen Yi's key inference came a little late, after Qu Chuan was killed, but Geng Jianqing, as a veteran criminal police officer, understood very well that investigating cases relies on brains, and cases with missing complex clues rely on flashes of inspiration. As for when the police officer handling the case will " "Flash" is uncontrollable and contains elements of luck.

It is very rare to think of this level, which proves that Chen Yi was right.

The wait is long. Qin He needs to call Di Cheng, who needs to leave for the hospital to retrieve medical records. This process cannot be rushed.

At the same time, Zhang Jingang, deputy director of the Yangcheng City Bureau, personally came forward to deal with reporters and fans besieging the city bureau.

At present, the case is unclear and the details cannot be disclosed. He tries his best to persuade everyone to go back first.

Be polite before fighting. If everyone continues to mess around and disrupt the order of the city bureau, they will be warned for the crime of picking quarrels and provoking trouble, and all those who come forward will be detained administratively.

A few hours later, everyone outside the city bureau had dispersed, and Qin He pushed the door open and entered the task force office.

Everyone's eyes turned over, causing Qin He's steps to stop abruptly.

"what's the situation?"

Geng Jianqing: “Where’s the list?”

Qin He: "Here."

He handed the list to the police officer in charge of the projector. The big screen quickly lit up, and a large number of names appeared, with the psychiatric and psychological departments highlighted in red.

There are so many people that they need to be screened one by one, so the workload is not small.

Qin He was shocked when he learned Chen Yi's judgment, and suddenly felt that the suspect was likely to be on the list.

Chen Yi scanned all the names as fast as he could, but didn't finish them all because his eyes froze midway.

There is a name there: Yu Sheng, a psychiatric specialist.

Yu Sheng, for the rest of his life, is easily noticed.

"Check the detailed information of this Yu Sheng." Chen Yi said.

"Yes, Chen Zhi."

The police officer from the task force tapped the keyboard and entered Yu Sheng's name. The complete household registration information was retrieved, which clearly showed that he was from Jincheng.

"Jincheng people." The police officer said.

Chen Yi: "Data projection."

Yu Sheng's information appears on the big screen, but the specific height and weight cannot be found unless he has a criminal record.

In the photos, Chen Yi and Yu Sheng "look at each other", with familiar eyes, familiar eye shapes, and familiar eyebrows.

"That's him." Chen Yi raised his hand and pointed his index finger at the big screen.

Three words made the entire task force commotion.
