Chapter 021 I thought you were just a person + Rainy Night Taxi copy follow-up Easter eggs

On the gray cement floor, blood flowed out of the woman's body, covering one-third of the room. The sunlight outside the window was so hot and bright that it was hard to open your eyes, forming a sharp contrast with the scene in the room.

Equally unpleasant is the smell of decay left by the giant corpse in the house.

On the mottled wall, flies were circling around the black bloodstains.

【Wow, it tastes really good right from the start! 】

[I wonder what identity card I got in this instance. 】

[Sister Sang is heartless. I haven't even gotten over the last instance yet! ]

The barrage is one thing, but we should just stay here and see what Ye Sangsang can do.

Ye Sangsang stood there without moving, looking at the virtual screen that appeared in the air, with a look of surprise on his face.

Because the ID card was different from what she imagined.

[Hello, player. You have entered the game. Please abide by the rules of the game and start the "Brutal Carnival" copy. ]

【You have drawn an identity card. 】

【Investigator】

Not the criminal she expected, but an investigator on the side of justice.

"Squeak, squeak" insects and birds chirped outside the window. She reacted and began to try to trigger the game mission.

If she remembered correctly, as a detective, she needed to find out the whole story of the case and then arrest the murderer. She couldn't help but smile, but in a short time, she became a person like Wei Qingzheng.

But investigating the case?

Ye Sangsang thought it was quite novel.

At this moment, a hand patted her shoulder and said, "Come on, take a look at the scene."

Ye Sangsang turned her head to look over and saw a middle-aged man. She looked down at herself and saw that her delicate skin and tender flesh showed that she was very young.

At this moment, the game's mission also came.

[Game Mission: Please find out the truth of the "Brutal Carnival" case within 30 days.]

[The character relationships, personality and background information have been released, please check it out. 】

While looking at the scene, Ye Sangsang clicked on the information and started checking it.

At the same time, she also made a comparison in her mind. If it was a criminal, he would be given some details of the game mission. However, the mission of the investigator was relatively simple, the number of missions was unknown, and the only requirement was time.

Or are there other mission types that she hasn't triggered?

However, there is no difference in the difficulty of the missions between the two.

Ye Sangsang tried to do two things at once as he looked at the scene and took the gloves handed to him by his master.

In this copy, Ye Sangsang is called Shen Yu, a newly minted criminal police trainee, only 23 years old. The middle-aged man next to him is called Qin Jiang, 42 years old, and is the trainee "master" arranged for Shen Yu by the police.

Ye Sang squatted down and began to check the condition of the body.

Shen Yu's greatest strength is criminal behavior analysis, or criminal psychological profiling.

Based on the existing crime location, crime methods, and the conditions of the injured or deceased, the murderer's psychology, personality, family upbringing, and physical condition are profiled.

Draw a conclusion, and then based on the conclusion, obtain information about the murderer.

Of course, judging by the expression of the master beside Shen Yu, he was clearly not prepared for her to analyze anything.

So she chose to remain silent and watch the scene.

She doesn't have Shen Yu's ability, so she can only rely on her own observation.

The cause of death was a cut on the neck, there were signs of being bound on the hands and feet before death, there were signs of whipping on the body, and there were signs of penetration on the genitals.

She lifted her clothes and silently noted these things in her heart.

What puzzled her was that this man dressed the woman neatly, with creases on the hems of her clothes, making them look like newly bought clothes.

She stood up and began to observe the room. The room had two bedrooms and a living room. The walls were gray and stained. The decoration had been there for some time. The simple furniture was rotten and dilapidated, but there were traces of daily life.

She looked around and saw that the deceased must have been living in great difficulty, and this was his home.

There were no signs of the door lock being tampered with, suggesting that the deceased either knew the person or took the initiative to bring someone in.

She turned around and pulled apart the deceased's hair and armpits, which showed some bruises and impact marks. It seemed that the person died on the bed in the master bedroom.

After watching the whole thing, Ye Sangsang stood aside and watched Qin Jiang do his work.

The forensic examination has been completed. The forensic doctor has come with a body bag and a stretcher and is taking the person back to the bureau for autopsy.

There were seven or eight people at the scene and they finished cleaning up quickly.

The year is now 2005, an era when various technical means are used to solve crimes, but not so easy to use.

Ye Sangsang followed Qin Jiang, and the two of them walked around the room again.

Now that we are at the scene, we naturally have to visit the people around us.

According to the preliminary judgment of the forensic doctor, the deceased should have died between 8 pm and 2 am four days ago. Their current goal is to find out if there are any witnesses or if anyone heard any sound.

If there were witnesses, the case would be much easier to solve.

Ye Sangsang took out the small notebook from his pocket and followed Qin Jiang to ask someone.

The house where the deceased lived was an old residential building, a seven-story building with four households per floor. It was obvious that the residential building was built a few years ago, and the cement floor had become smooth.

The deceased's house was the middle house. The two knocked on the house on the right, but no one opened the door after a while.

There was a sound of a door opening.

"Who are you looking for?" A woman with reddish curly hair opened the door to the left of the deceased's house and asked curiously.

Qin Jiang took out his police ID and flashed it to the woman, "We are police officers, and we want to find out more about this family."

The woman was wearing a bright yellow-green striped suspender and denim shorts. She was also outgoing and said directly, "The family moved away a long time ago and are not at home."

"Okay, thank you." Qin Jiang smiled kindly and walked to the door of the woman's room. "You live next door? We want to know a little bit about your situation, is that ok?"

The woman thought about it and made way for the other person to come in.

The room was simply decorated with bright colors. The woman asked the man to sit down, picked up the cups and poured two glasses of water in front of them. "Are you asking about the death of the woman next door?"

Ye Sangsang looked at the woman and said, "I don't know how to address you."

"Zhao Yue," she replied.

Qin Jiang looked at Zhao Yue curiously and said with a smile: "Someone died next door, but you don't seem to be afraid at all."

Zhao Yue shrugged, sat on the sofa beside him, raised his cup and took a sip, saying: "I'm a reporter. For this case, maybe I can get the upper hand and write a front-page headline."

Ye Sangsang stood up and looked at the balcony while listening to the other party.

This house was more security-conscious than the deceased's, with reinforced anti-theft windows. She took a look here and looked at the house next door, then turned and walked to the sofa in the living room.

Qin Jiang asked, "Have you seen any strange people next door these days? Or heard any noise?"

"No, I've been on a business trip these days and just got home yesterday afternoon," Zhao Yue said.

Ye Sangsang looked around and looked at Zhao Yue, "Do you have a boyfriend? Or a male companion?"

"How do you know I have a boyfriend?" Zhao Yue asked in surprise.

Because there were no men's items in the entire living room, not even clothes or shoes.

Ye Sangsang stared at the black coffee cup and said in a light voice, "It's just a guess. So I can know, is your boyfriend at home these days?"

"I have a cat. I was on a business trip, so I gave the key to my boyfriend and asked him to feed it for me." Zhao Yue answered, fearing that the police in front of him would misunderstand, and emphasized: "He is a good person with a good family. He will not do anything criminal!"

Qin Jiang looked at Ye Sangsang, then at the woman, "Do you have your boyfriend's phone number? We'll call him later to ask about the situation."

Zhao Yue nodded and read out the phone number directly.

The two of them had basically finished asking questions and were ready to ask another household and the neighbors upstairs and downstairs.

Before leaving, Ye Sangsang tore off a piece of paper with a phone number on it and handed it to Zhao Yue, "If you have any clues, I hope you can contact me."

Zhao Yue nodded and took Ye Sangsang's cell phone number.

For a reporter like her, it is a good thing to get to know people in the serious crime squad, maybe she can get some inside information.

Opposite Zhao Yue was an older lady who was a little hard of hearing. After communicating for a long time, she still couldn't get any clues.

The two went upstairs, the woman was on the third floor, and the one upstairs was on the fourth floor.

There lived a couple and two children here. They looked very reserved and only the man was chatting.

"The night four days ago? I didn't hear anything. My family goes to bed early because we couldn't pick up the kids and go to work during the day, so we went to bed around seven or eight in the evening..." The man spilled the beans like a bamboo tube, speaking all at once.

The woman nodded hesitantly, her eyes wandering involuntarily.

Ye Sangsang saw it but didn't say anything.

Qin Jiang also saw it and said, "You have to trust the police. No matter what you say, we will keep it confidential."

The man swallowed and rubbed his nose. "It's nothing. We just heard some embarrassing noises a few days ago. You know, there's no sound insulation in old houses..."

Qin Jiang nodded and left with Ye Sangsang.

I knocked on the door downstairs, but no one was there.

The two had no choice but to return to the crime scene.

When Ye Sangsang appeared on the scene for the first time, Qin Jiang felt that as a master, he should guide her.

Lifting the yellow cordon, we entered the room, where a human figure was drawn with chalk.

Qin Jiang stared at him for a while, and with a serious and somewhat ruffian look, he looked at Ye Sangsang who was observing him, holding a black square briefcase.

Although Qin Jiang didn't like Shen Yu and thought she was too young, he still took her with him, asking as he walked: "The door lock was not broken, and the woman had signs of being violated, so do you think this was a murder of passion, revenge, or rape?"

He gave Ye Sangsang a few options to choose from, and then looked at Ye Sangsang curiously, wanting to know her answer.

I wonder if this top student from the police academy can give him a surprise.

Ye Sangsang looked at the marks on the ground, then at the windowsill, "I think, neither of them." The two walked from one room to another, and Ye Sangsang pointed at the window, "The door lock was not broken, so it is possible that he entered from the window."

Qin Jiang's expression changed, and he was somewhat puzzled by Ye Sangsang's reasoning, "Window sill?"

He went there to check and found no trace of footprints.

Ye Sangsang walked forward and pointed to the edge of the window frame which was covered with a thin layer of dust. "This place is close to the road, so it is true that there will be a thin layer of dust every two or three days, but most people don't clean the window frame, or the deceased didn't have the habit of doing so."

As she spoke, she opened the other side of the window. "The window sill here is obviously covered with more dust than the exposed window sill. The murderer was very smart. He did not clean the gaps in the window sill. He only cleaned the window sill where traces might be left, but he ignored the fact that the victim did not have this habit."

Qin Jiang looked at the obviously different dust accumulations and nodded in agreement.

"Then why do you say it's not a revenge killing or a murder of passion? There is also rape and murder," Qin Jiang continued to ask.

Ye Sangsang calmly analyzed: "First, the deceased did not suffer many injuries. She was killed by a single cut in the throat, which proves that the murderer may have scouted the location several times before being able to kill with one blow in the bed in the dark."

"Is it murder out of love?" Qin Jiang motioned for her to continue.

Ye Sangsang thought about it and pinched her hands together. This was her first time to analyze, so she was a little uncertain. "The whip marks and restraint marks on her body don't seem to have any intention to hurt. People who can accept this kind of whip marks and restraints are more fond of being abused, and they probably don't have any emotional entanglements with anyone for the time being. As for the invasion marks, this proves that the other party had a love affair with the whip marks and restraints. The clothes have the wrinkles of new clothes, but they fit very well and look good. Judging from the expensive fabric, she must have put them on because she was overjoyed. My initial judgment is that the woman should have received a sum of money... and this money has disappeared now."

"From this, we can infer that the woman did not die from rape or murder."

She clasped her hands and looked at her master Qin Jiang.

"So, this is a burglary and murder?" Qin Jiang asked in surprise.

Ye Sangsang stepped forward and stood next to the wardrobe in the deceased's master bedroom. "The wardrobe door was opened and there were signs of rummaging. I guess the murderer was looking for money..."

"But the deceased found out and refused... and a fight ensued..." Qin Jiang continued.

Ye Sangsang nodded and stood up. "The deceased was panicking and wanted to shout, and then the murderer took out a knife."

Ye Sangsang walked to the living room and looked at the dead body lying on the ground. "If I'm not mistaken, the woman covered her neck immediately after her throat was cut..."

She walked to the bed again, covered her neck, staggered out, stretched out her hand in panic to turn on the light, and then hit her head because it was too dark and too panicked, and hurt her arm.

Then she felt the blood flowing out and began to panic and try to pull the murderer's clothes off, wanting to get back the money that she cared about so much.

Ye Sangsang covered her neck with one hand and tried to pull Qin Jiang with the other.

Qin Jiang thought of something and pulled Ye Sangsang's hand, asked her to let go and dragged him out of the room.

Then blood splattered everywhere, and the woman died soon because of losing too much blood.

So, the woman lay down almost in the center of the living room.

After Qin Jiang finished the on-site demonstration, Fu'e fell into deep thought.

It seems that my disciple does not need any teaching.

[Ah? I think I understand something. Please speak slowly so that I can understand!]

[Sister Sang, I thought you were just a pervert, but I didn't expect you to have the potential to be a shining star in the police force!]

[I am dumbfounded. Is this case so simple? ]

[I thought Sister Sang was just a badass, and was still wondering what to do. This instance has to be restarted, but now it seems I was worrying too much.]

The barrage of comments surged wildly. Those who had been waiting for the story to move forward slowly were dumbfounded as they watched Ye Sangsang quickly reason about the case to this point.

The person who was about to leave the live broadcast room stayed quietly.

Ye Sangsang looked at Qin Jiang, "Master, do you think this makes sense?"

All she knew about murders came from watching them on the Internet or reading books, and the rest was her own analysis.

Now she is a little curious about what the level is.

"Ahem." Qin Jiang put his hand to his lips and pretended to cough twice. "It's OK. There's still a lot to learn. Also, aren't you learning to write about criminal behavior analysis? Go back to the bureau and write some."

Ye Sangsang nodded, "Okay."

She doesn't understand, but she can go offline and read the book.

When the two returned to the bureau, the deceased's information had already been retrieved by a colleague, who gave a copy to Ye Sangsang.

The atmosphere in the office was harmonious and busy. It was a large office with desks scattered around and everyone was sitting at the desks.

Except for Ye Sangsang's desk, every desk was filled with thick folders and various things.

She clicked off the line, talked to the audience, and then opened her eyes.

Not only because she didn't understand profiling, but also because it was daytime and time for her to wake up.

In fact, the body's deep sleep after entering the "Crime Files" game is not a good rest, it is equivalent to a very shallow sleep. This is also why many viewers wondered why Ye Sangsang did not choose to log off and rest after completing the previous game.

In fact, Ye Sangsang felt that this kind of rest was enough.

She has had more energy than most people since she was young. For example, she can work for 20 to 30 hours non-stop after sleeping for four or five hours.

As she got older, her energy got better.

Therefore, light sleep is enough for her to rest, and it is already more than enough for her.

The reason why she went offline is simply because she still had people to deal with.

For example, when she closed her eyes, she saw the nurse's gaze.

She is really dishonest, Ye Sangsang thought.

After breakfast, Ye Sangsang started her usual activities. The girl's business card was still on the table. She reached out and picked it up and threw it into the trash can.

But today is a little different.

After completing "Rainy Night Taxi", she was listed on the hot list of Xinghuan Live, and there was even an edited version of the game. She took a look and found it very popular.

As for the full version, there is none. It may be to attract people to watch the game live broadcast and to divert traffic to the official release of the game.

At this time, there was a ding-dong sound coming from the cell phone.

Ye Zhe: Ye Sangsang, you actually kept the equipment for yourself to play with. I applied for the equipment! You are shameless! How dare you lie to me! Just wait!

Ye Zhe: Haha, if you transfer the equipment to me now, I will ask my dad to let you go.

Ye Zhe: Ye Sangsang, I’m going to kill you!!!

She looked at him calmly and thought that her brother was more like a mental patient than herself. Why didn't she take him in as well?

However, thinking of the other party's madness, she smiled excitedly again.

As for the father he mentioned, he probably doesn't have time to take care of her.

If he took the time to come and didn't talk sense, she would go a little crazy.

"Boom boom boom"

"Hello...Hello, Miss Ye," a person with innocent eyes and wearing a white nurse's uniform stood at the door, knocked on the door and shouted.

Ye Sangsang raised his eyes and looked at the other party, "What's wrong?"

The nurse looked at the other person's beautiful and extremely delicate features and temperament, and was stunned for a moment before she responded, "Ms. Ye, you have a letter that was just delivered."

She walked forward in a somewhat hurried manner and handed the letter to Ye Sangsang who was sitting in a wheelchair.

My eyes fell on her slender, white fingers, which seemed to be carefully carved, and I marveled at her incomparable perfection.

Why did you get sick?

Ye Sangsang raised her hand and held the letter, then smiled at the other party and said, "Thank you."

"No, it's just a little strange. In this day and age, it's okay to just deliver a letter, but why does the whole family have to go out?" The nurse said with her head tilted, then turned away in a daze.

She maneuvered her wheelchair back to the window of the bed room. The sunlight shone through the window and fell on half of her body.

Nowadays, few people write letters, which is already an ancient form of communication. She was a little curious about who wrote to her.

She opened the envelope.

The words that appeared before her eyes made her startled, and her naturally pursed lips loosened slightly.

She actually knew the person who delivered the letter.

"Lin Shu..."

Ye Sangsang read it softly, then she stopped talking and started reading.

Hello, Miss Ye Sangsang.

My name is Lin Shu, you should be familiar with my name.

I was attracted by my daughter when she was watching the live broadcast. The holographic game was very real and brought back all my experiences. Until today, it seems like it was all still a dream.

I am writing to you to express my sincere gratitude to you for helping me let go of the knot in my heart.

…

In the letter, Lin Shu wrote about the details of Yueliang's death and the state of mind she went through at the time.

She slowly recounted the death of Yueliang, the details of the pursuit, the painful struggle, and how the darkness had almost brought her to a state of collapse.

She seemed to be narrating that even after several decades, she still remembered it clearly.

But it's also like letting go, letting go of everything that has happened, and confessing the pain to Ye Sangsang, who has truly experienced it all.

Her writing was so gentle that Ye Sangsang could even feel that gentleness herself.

After telling the story, she began to talk about some details that were different from the game.

She said: "Do you know? When my husband went to kill Wang Shun, I sat nervously in the house, not daring to turn on the lights, waiting for my husband to come back. When his car lights shone into the room, I was so excited that I trembled all over."

But he was badly injured.

He was an ordinary elementary school teacher who had never thought about committing a crime. His first crime was murder.

He was careless for a moment and was nearly stabbed to death by Wang Shun.

But Wang Shun underestimated the strength of a father who had lost his daughter, and he was killed and his body dumped.

He originally wanted to throw it farther, but due to his injuries and lack of strength, he could only throw it into the ditch.

You are great! I saw the scene of killing Wang Shun and I cried. I cried with joy.

My husband was also slightly injured when Zhou Qiang was killed. Those people were so vicious that I couldn’t even imagine how he managed to do it.

In my heart, he is a very good father, and I even regret the resentment and indifference I pretended to have at that time.

Next is Jiang Jiansheng and Wang Zhi. I am really grateful. Thank you very much for letting me see those things. The anger and restlessness in my heart have been calmed down.

Yes, even after decades, I still can't completely let it go.

I also want to thank Wei Qingzheng for letting it go and not getting involved, allowing the matter to end with my husband jumping into the river and dying.

I write to you not only to express my gratitude but also to tell you that I am happy.

All sins are wiped out and we no longer have any psychological burden from now on.

Thank you.

Signature: Wenwu.

Ye Sangsang's gaze fell on it, paused, and there was a slight fluctuation in his eyes.

She thought of something and maneuvered the wheelchair out of the ward and arrived at the gate of Anding Hospital.

The gate was a black carved gate. When Ye Sangsang came out, the morning sunlight shone on the earth.

Far away, through the gap, she saw a silver-haired old man holding hands tightly with another old man, and standing next to them was a middle-aged woman and a teenage girl in a blue dress.

They saw Ye Sangsang and then turned and left.

Ye Sangsang held the letter in her hand and watched them walk away.
