Chapter 385 He wants to escape!
Nine out of ten arson criminals who are caught will cry and say that they did not expect such serious consequences. They were just playing with fire, just like playing with firecrackers when they were children.
Some pretend to be innocent, and some are complete cowards.
David Fan felt scared on the night of the arson. He thought about escaping to Taiwan or the mainland, but he had no money.
He wanted to sneak into the boat and go to Guangzhou, but was discovered and kicked off the boat. He
wanted to hide at home and wait for the situation to pass, but whether it was TV or newspapers, they were all broadcasting the fire at the Eight Immortals Taoist Temple.
Stroking his short brown hair, he was eating the last bowl of instant noodles at home, while anxiously staring at the report on TV, feeling uneasy.
When he saw the police officers investigating the case in the rain, David Fan was so nervous that he almost broke his chopsticks.
In the blurry picture shrouded by the rain mist, a female police officer with a sullen face led the team past.
David Fan's pupils shrank, and his face unconsciously moved closer to the TV.
The cameraman really chased the female police officer, and immediately turned around after she left the camera, and framed her again -
the female police officer stretched out her hand and pointed in two directions, and immediately two groups of people ran in the direction she pointed.
Although the reporter did not know what order the female police officer had issued, she confidently introduced to the camera:
"Officer Yi has taken control of the situation. She has some ideas and is sending people to implement and verify them. We believe that new information about the murderer will soon be brought to justice."
There was only one mouthful of instant noodles left in the bowl. Thinking that there was not much food at home, he still picked up the noodles and wanted to put them into his mouth. However, watching the report on TV, he felt depressed and suddenly had no appetite. His stomach even churned and he wanted to vomit.
He slammed the instant noodles on the table, turned around and angrily walked around the room, and finally sat back, quickly put the noodles into his mouth, and while watching the TV report, he couldn't control his legs and shook them quickly.
"...The latest report is that Officer Yi Jiayi seems to have found the footprints left by the murderer with the expert police from the forensic department! The cameras they hold must have taken clear photos of the footprints. Perhaps the real murderer can be found based on the footprints..."
David Fan was upset. He knew that it was not good for him to continue watching the news, but he could not control himself from taking in this information.
The huge fear made him have to understand the latest police movements, but watching the police approach step by step, he felt even more afraid.
He put his fingers in his mouth, bit his nails with a slightly rapid breathing, and sweat broke out on his forehead.
"...The police have obtained the murderer's DNA vector. Once the suspect is caught, his identity can be confirmed..." "
...The police said that the murderer may have pretended to be a firefighter and sneaked into the villagers while the villagers were fighting the fire, and escaped during the chaos...Some villagers must have seen him, and the police are actively looking for witnesses..." When
David Fan heard the report, he was so shocked that he sat up suddenly from his chair, knocking over the table. The instant noodles that had been cold on it and had been placed on it for a long time were spilled all over the table due to the violent shaking.
David Fan didn't care about all this. He stared at the TV and couldn't help muttering, "How would the police know that I was there... Did anyone see me at that time..."
He tried hard to recall, but there were too many things that could excite his nerves that night. He couldn't remember if anyone had paid attention to him when he pretended to be a firefighter...
What if someone really noticed him and reported him to the police?
David Fan suddenly felt suffocated and opened the window to breathe in some fresh air, but the rain poured in and covered his face.
He suddenly remembered that the reporter said that the heavy rain was God crying for the dead, and his heart was even more frightened.
After closing the window, he felt that staying at home was just waiting to die, so he opened an umbrella and prepared to go out.
But just as he walked onto the path wearing a raincoat, he saw a police car rushing from the front.
Feeling guilty and frightened, he turned around and ran into the woods. His feet slipped and he fell to the ground. He rolled down the hillside for several times and was lucky to get up by grabbing a tree trunk. He
didn't care about the pain on his body. He hid in the woods on the roadside and ran down the mountain. But after running for a while, he saw the police set up a checkpoint and verified the identity of everyone leaving the mountain.
He swallowed dryly and thought about running away through the woods, but he saw several police dogs wearing raincoats tied loosely in the woods. It was conceivable that as long as he passed by there, the police dogs would rush towards him.
This is really walking into a trap!
David Fan was in pain after the fall. It was too suspicious to escape in the rain, so he had to turn back.
Finally, he broke through the rain and returned home. When he closed the door, he leaned against the door and panted, his heart pounding so hard that he almost jumped out of his mouth.
He ran to take a shower and changed his clothes. He persuaded himself to stay calm no matter what. The police were just making a fuss. No... there was no way they would really catch him!
There was obviously no evidence. Everyone who had seen him or had a conflict with him during the day was burned to death. Now it was raining heavily. He was safe! He was safe! ! He was safe... He
comforted himself repeatedly like this. He stayed at home and ate the hard bread in the refrigerator. He was suffering, anxious, and afraid. Even the barking of the neighbor's dog would startle him and make him jump out of bed.
Finally, on the third day after the fire, whenever David Fan heard the words "Yi Jiayi" on TV, he would feel his heart pounding.
When he turned on the TV again in the morning, he hoped that no one would mention her name again, and he hoped that she would not continue to find new clues!
Yesterday afternoon, the broadcast of the latest information had been reduced, and the TV station began to repeat the previous news... The clues that would be found at the beginning have been found, and the rest are impossible to find.
This case has come to this point, and it has finally reached a dead end, right?
The fire incident will eventually subside, and he will be fine...
With such expectations, he held the remote control in his hand, took several deep breaths before he mustered up the courage, and finally pressed the switch with his fingers trembling slightly.
But the thing that scares him the most is still happening - the host of TVB morning news is touting the latest clues obtained by police officer Yi Jiayi, which is an extremely clear and well-drawn sketch, which appears on the right side of the female anchor.
"...If anyone finds clues about the suspect, please contact the police immediately to report the case. The police will follow up the report information as soon as possible and conduct screening and tracking of the suspect. I hope the general public..." However,
David Fan could no longer hear what the female anchor said. His eyes were wide open because of extreme fear. He stared at the sketch and cried out in disbelief, as if his heart would stop and die in the next moment.
Short brown hair, square face, sparse eyebrows, puffy triangular eyes, wide nose and lips...
It's just like a photo. Isn't this him!
How could it be?
Even if someone saw him, how could someone who just glanced at him be able to describe his image so clearly?
Don't most people have a poor memory for strangers' faces?
He didn't do anything out of the ordinary when he went up and down the mountain that day. When he sneaked into the fire brigade, it was dark and the people around him were busy fighting the fire. Who would pay attention to what the facial features of the people fighting the fire together looked like?
How could it be possible... How could someone remember him so clearly? It was as if they knew he was the murderer and memorized his facial features and characteristics.
No! No!
Even if someone really noticed him, how could they remember him so clearly when they just glanced at him?
It's not like I was reciting his picture over and over again, nor was it like I was staring at his face and copying his portrait...
How could it be... How could it be... How could it be...
David Fan only felt a loud buzzing in his head, a splitting headache, and a huge fear that made everything in front of him dizzy, and his legs began to weaken.
He had been locked in the house for the past few days, and he had not been able to eat or sleep well. His hungry and sleepy body could not bear the mental blow at all. He began to feel dizzy and could not even stand up by holding on to the table.
He fell to the ground, and the broadcast on the TV in front of him continued:
"...The suspect is 170cm tall, weighs about 132 pounds, has dyed brown hair, and is very likely to have been to the Eight Immortals Taoist Temple on the day of the fire... If there are citizens who know the situation or know the suspect, please immediately..."
Run away!
Run away and hide!
Escape to a place where no one knows him!
This was the only thought in David Fan's mind. He didn't care about the heavy rain and being penniless. The police who set up checkpoints couldn't stop him... Even if he had to roll down the hillside, he would escape!
