Chen Yi couldn't remember how many times he had set foot on the street where Cuiping Garden was located. Since Cai Wenwen was killed and a special task force was set up on the case, he hoped that the technical investigation would find more clues at the crime scene, but in the end, they only identified the suspect on the spot. The fact of painting.

No pointing clues were obtained.

During this period, Lu Yongqiang said: After so many years of on-site survey work, this is the cleanest site he has ever encountered.

The so-called clean does not mean that the crime scene is cleaned as neatly as new, but that all traces needed by the police are taken away.

All that remains is the paint, still using modern high-tech criminal investigation technology.

A few decades ago, if the suspect had not committed crimes continuously, the possibility of this case becoming unsolved would have been extremely high.

Chen Yi thought about this problem. Every case has its origin. There are no ifs, only inevitability.

"Hello, police, have you seen this person recently? What I bought should be gardenias."

"Or wearing a mask, being very tall, thin, and not very talkative. Take a closer look and think about it."

"OK, thanks."

Chen Yi led people to visit and inquire at each of the seventeen flower shops.

"I've seen it before. The one I bought was Gardenia."

When he came to the twelfth flower shop, the owner gave an affirmative answer.

Chen Yi knew that he was still one step away from Yu Sheng. It was now 4:30 in the afternoon.

"Hello? Bureau Geng, we should have found him. He is in Cuiping Garden." Chen Yi dialed Geng Jianqing's number.

"Cuiping Garden?!" Geng Jianqing was very surprised, his voice was urgent, "Do you know the specific room number?"

Chen Yi: "It needs to be checked."

Geng Jianqing: "Are you sure it's there?"

Chen Yi: "Ninety percent sure."

Geng Jianqing understood that if a criminal investigation genius like Chen Yi said 90%, it was basically 100%. If the case was investigated independently, the other party would have already taken action.

"I'll bring someone there right away!" he said.

Chen Yi: "Director Geng, it's not good to make a big show of it. He might find out. Let's investigate secretly and wait for my call."

Geng Jianqing: "Okay, I'll listen to you."

Subsequently, Chen Yi contacted Jiang Xiaoxin and found all the rental agencies in Cuiping Garden, focusing on the one who had interacted with Cai Wenwen.

If Yu Sheng is really in Cuiping Garden, it is impossible to know whether he rents monthly or daily, or when he rented.

Perhaps, Qu Chuan had already started preparations after he arrived in Yangcheng.

Perhaps, after killing Qu Chuan, he chose to rent it short-term to complete the last painting.

So the investigation still needs to be comprehensive.

Outside the community, Chen Yi is screening tenants one by one through WeChat and phone calls. The management of Cuiping Community is very irregular. Agents generally have never seen the tenants, so it is difficult to identify them through photos and characteristics.

Such a community will cause a lot of trouble for the police to investigate the case.

However, Chen Yi had no intention of reminding the relevant departments to rectify the situation after the case. There were other places where Cuiping Community was rectified, and criminals could always take advantage of the loopholes, so it was unavoidable.

After screening out those with very low suspicions, dozens of people were left in the end.

Chen Yi entered the community.

The environment and property quality of Cuiping Garden are worrying. The internal roads are full of potholes and are full of signs of damage and simple repairs.

On both sides of the road, there should have been lush green vegetation, but now it is deserted.

Occasionally, you can see garbage bags swaying in the wind.

When housing prices fall, the ones that fall the most are in communities like this. No one will want to live there unless they really have no money.

There are thirty-six buildings in total, and dozens of people are scattered in every corner of the community.

Of course Chen Yi would not go door to door and knock on the door. He recalled the environment of the bedroom in Yu Zuoqing's home and the information given by Yu Zuoqing, and wandered downstairs to look at each window.

Finally, he stood under the third floor and looked up at the sixth floor. From this direction, he could see the window of the master bedroom.

The curtains were ajar, and there seemed to be something on the windowsill.

He began to retreat, step by step, until he was very far away. The angle between his line of sight and the sixth floor became smaller and smaller, and the situation on the window sill became clearer and clearer.

There is a pot of flowers there, green flower plants and white flowers.

Gardenia.

Chen Yi stared at the flowers on the window sill and took out his mobile phone.

"Bureau Geng, we found it."

Half an hour later, police cars were parked at the side entrance of the community. Geng Jianqing, Qin He, and Xie Yunzhi quickly rushed into Cuiping Garden and met Chen Yi on the sixth floor of Building 3.

Chen Yi was already waiting. The corridor was full of police officers, but no one spoke.

The key was slowly inserted into the lock cylinder. Chen Yi moved very slowly. He needed to confirm whether the door was locked.

Click!

The door opened.

There is no lock.

The Yangcheng detachment and task force police officers immediately rushed in with guns drawn, very quickly, and their target was clearly in the direction of the master bedroom.

The door to the master bedroom is closed.

Qin Fei ran at the front and kicked the door open without using his hands.

boom!

The old lock core broke easily, and people filed in.

The sun shines through the gaps in the wrinkled and dirty curtains, shining mottledly into the messy master bedroom, or to be precise, into the studio.

The thin man sat quietly in front of the worn-out easel. The brush and scraper in his hand were roaming wildly on the canvas. The inferior oil paint dye was a bit pungent, but Yu Sheng worked hard without any distractions, sketching out messy graffiti.

He was so crazy that he didn't look like he was creating at all, but looked like a sulky child scribbling.

The loud noise had no impact on him.

He is still painting.

The scraper in his hand was extremely sharp, and the sun shone with a cold glow.

"do not move!!"

"Yu Sheng! You are under arrest! Put down your things immediately and squat down with your head in your hands!!"

"Put down what you are holding! Hurry up!!"

The dark gun was pointed at Yu Sheng, and the police officer shouted loudly.

Geng Jianqing and others walked in, looking sharply at Yu Sheng.

Yu Sheng turned a deaf ear and his wrists shook rapidly.

Seeing this, Chen Yi strode forward and kicked him on the shoulder from the side.

"Bullshit! Still painting!"

After suffering a heavy blow, Yu Sheng fell to the ground, but he still held the sharp scraper tightly in his hand.

"Let me finish painting! Let me finish painting! It's almost time!"

Yu Sheng got up in embarrassment and raised the scraper to continue completing the painting.

Chen Yi kicked him again, this time kicking him in the face.

"Draw Nima!"

Bang!

Yu Sheng fell to the ground on his back, with blood flowing from the corner of his mouth. This time, the scraper in his hand fell aside.

He wanted to get it, but the police officers around him swarmed him, pinned him to the ground, and kicked the scraper away.

"Don't move!"

Chen Yi walked over slowly with a gloomy face: "Pull him up!"

Yu Sheng was handcuffed and dragged up. Chen Yigang wanted to kick him again, but Geng Jianqing couldn't help it anymore: "Okay, okay, take him back."

He understood the anger of the young man, and the tragic killing of Xia Qingwen in the imperial city was still fresh in his memory. She was the last daughter of her parents.

"Let me finish the painting!!" Yu Sheng was a little out of control. He was still a little bit away from completing the last painting [Evil].

Give him some more time, and the Qi Qing series will come to a perfect conclusion without leaving any flaws!

Yu Sheng was taken out of the room, and the frontline criminal police gave way to the technical investigation and began on-site investigation.

Chen Yi looked back at the easel.

The unfinished picture is dominated by dark tones, like a sky shrouded in dark clouds, depressing and heavy.

This painting is different from the other six. It is more abstract, with messy lines and no rules. It gives people a feeling that I can do whatever I want.

However, the exaggerated deformation and twisted beauty, the mottled colors are like polluted water sources, dripping with filth and decay. Their outlines are blurred, as if they are constantly creeping and changing, which is very disturbing and disgusting.

The painter is not only disgusting himself, but also disgusting others.

The unfinished part at the end has sharper lines and dazzling colors, which pierce the viewer's heart like thorns, destroying the original balance and harmony.

Compared with the fear in the fourth picture, the negative emotions expressed in this [Evil] are more pure. It not only has a visual effect, but can even arouse the instinctive disgust deep in people's hearts.

"Should he be allowed to finish the painting?" Xie Yunzhi suddenly said.

Qin He turned his head: "What are you talking about?!"

Xie Yunzhi was embarrassed, but he was also quick to talk.

Geng Jianqing came over and said, "Chen Yi, how did you know he was in Cuiping Garden?"

Chen Yi: "You guessed it. I'm worried that he predicted our actions. Whether it's Gardenia or the studio, you can actually re-engrave it yourself. Cai Wenwen died in Cuiping Garden, and he might choose to complete his last work here." Painting.”

"As mentioned before, the last painting is his weakness. His inner disgust was almost unbearable after Qu Chuan's death, which indirectly affected his thinking and counter-reconnaissance capabilities. If he is very calm, we can find him in a short time. Not to him."

Geng Jianqing nodded slightly in silence. The police must be confident, but they cannot ignore the suspect's IQ. It is not a shame to respect the "opponent".

"Finally caught."

Qin He breathed a sigh of relief. The three-month deadline took less than a month, which was already very fast. Unfortunately, another Qu Chuan died during the investigation.

There is no way, the suspect's psychology is elusive, he moves too fast, and he is well prepared, making it difficult for the task force to respond.

If you can catch it, it’s already pretty good.

He subconsciously looked at Chen Yi. It was the other party who had locked Yu Sheng's identity and position at the critical moment. Everyone's cooperation in this case was at the same starting point, which is indeed worthy of admiration.

I have to say that without Chen Yi's participation, Yu Sheng would probably run away.

After completing [Evil], Yu Sheng vented all his negative emotions and completely lost his weaknesses. He will become very difficult to deal with.

A highly intelligent criminal who has returned to calmness is terrifying.

Geng Jianqing also let go of the stone in his heart. Over the decades, he had participated in many special task force investigations. For cases where a special task force was established, the outcome was really hard to say. He could only do his best.

"Check the whole room carefully. Let's go and interrogate Yu Sheng."

The case has entered the final stage, and all that is left is Yu Sheng's confession. With his IQ, he might be able to fight Tai Chi with the police, but judging from his state just now, it seems that he is mentally prepared to be arrested. Unfortunately, he has not completed the painting.

Having said that, if it is not completed, it may reversely increase the value of the painting. If a collector knows the significance of the painting and knows that the author was caught midway, he will definitely want to buy it at a high price.

This is not a painting.

this is a true story.
