With a slight sound, the man sitting on the top of the cave threw something down, and it rolled to Fan Jia's feet. She picked it up and saw that it was two steamed buns in a plastic bag, still steaming.
“Are you hungry?” He said in a soft voice, “This is all I have now. I bought it at the intersection and I don’t dare to go far. The police are looking for me everywhere now.”
Fan Jia didn't say anything and quickly finished the bun. Then he looked up subconsciously and his whole body trembled with fear. Because Chen Zhaoci was lying at the entrance of the cave, his face was clearly visible through the iron railings. He still seemed to be his usual dull and reserved self.
But Fan Jia knew that he was not at all what he seemed. He would hold a camera and record a video of everyone in the company playing with a young girl. He would also ruthlessly drag her into darkness when she was about to escape. He even had a way to hide from everyone's sight and now locked her up in this underground cave without seeing the sun.
Chen Zhaoci looked at her with clear eyes and some attachment. She just stared at it quietly for a long time, which made her scalp tingle.
But at this moment, in Fan Jia's heart, what was stronger than fear was the desire for the truth. It is precisely because of this desire that she can overcome her fear. She said: "I saw the video on Zhou Rongfeng's computer. Liu Yisha died accidentally. It had nothing to do with you. Later, did they put the body in a box and dump it by the river?"
Chen Zhaoci stared at her and answered, "They threw it to me to deal with. The person died, and they didn't want to take responsibility, so they threw it to me."
Fan Jia said: "You can choose not to do it. Can they force you to do it?"
Chen Zhaoci smiled and replied, "Don't do it? If the body is found, I can't get away with it. And... in the final analysis, it was Liu Yisha who asked for it. She agreed to sleep with them and deduct one month's interest. She is different from you. Such a depraved and cheap girl. She deserves it!"
Although Fan Jia had little experience, he could vaguely sense that Chen Zhaoci's attitude was a bit extreme. As if inspired, she blurted out, "What about the others? The other girls who owed money, did they also fall into depravity, or did they not give in?"
Chen Zhaoci snorted and said, "Most of them are willing to degenerate. In their eyes, sleeping for money seems to be an easy thing. They can disregard their integrity and betray their lovers, and some even do it again and again! Others are unwilling, but very stupid. They were drugged and still gave in in the end. Only you, you are the only one who injured Zhou Rongfeng and escaped. You are unique."
He spoke calmly, as steady and logical as usual. But when Fan Jia looked at him, she shuddered inexplicably.
She had yet to have any real experience with a psychopath. After Gu Tiancheng was arrested, Fan Jia only participated in the interrogation. Besides, Gu Tiancheng was in a depressed state at the time and looked no different from other criminals. Fan Jia thought in a panic: It’s not normal for Chen Zhaoci to be like this, right? She had learned a little criminal psychology in the police academy before. When dealing with a pervert, one must analyze his behavior and understand his psychology in order to turn defeat into victory!
He said she was unique.
He scolded those girls for being depraved and betraying their lovers.
He said that those who can't escape are still stupid.
Then he took such a big risk and brought her here. The fact that You Mingxu and others haven't found her yet shows that he is an expert in this field and has a strong ability to resist criminal investigation.
Fan Jia: "If I am unique, then what is Zhao Fei'er? Isn't she unique to you?"
If Yin Feng were present at this moment, he would definitely smile knowingly, because Fan Jia asked an excellent and unexpected question.
Fan Jia stared at Chen Zhaoci's face.
However, his reaction dashed her plans. There was no emotion in his eyes, he just frowned and said, "Who are you talking about?"
"Zhao Fei'er. She was killed a year ago. She was also a client of your company. She was a girl who was put in a box."
Chen Zhaoci looked at Fan Jia: "I did imitate that case and dealt with Liu Yisha's body. But I have never even seen Zhao Feier, and she was not my client when she was alive. Do you think I killed her? In your mind, am I such a person? I have never killed anyone!" After saying that, he slapped the iron railing with his palm, making a clanging sound.
For some reason, Fan Jia felt that his reaction was credible.
If Chen Zhaoci wasn't the real murderer who killed Zhao Feier...
Then why did he kidnap her?
Fan Jia was originally a bold and straightforward person. After realizing this fact, she suddenly was no longer afraid of Chen Zhaoci. She got up from the ground again, put her hands on her hips, looked up and asked, "Tell me, what do you want to do to me?"
Chen Zhaoci was also stunned, surprised at her sudden vitality. He stared at her for a few seconds, but then smiled and said calmly: "At first I wanted to save you because I was afraid you would fall into their hands. I didn't know you were a police officer. What do you think I should do with you?"
Fan Jia couldn't believe her ears. This guy, who already showed signs of being a pervert, was intending to save her? But it seems to make sense. This person is sometimes extreme and sometimes sober and rational, which makes him a bit tricky.
However, once Fan Jia's fighting spirit is ignited, he will not give up until he achieves his goal. In this respect, he is similar to the two guys in the same group, and even the entire criminal police team led by Lao Ding. She changed her mind and asked again, "Is this how your ex-lover was harmed by campus loans?"
The girl's gentle and clear words sounded like thunder in Chen Zhaoci's ears. He looked at her clear, round eyes, as if he saw the girl from many years ago, lying in a pool of blood, staring at him with her innocent eyes like a child. From then on, I looked into every one of his dreams and into the depths of his soul.
——
Chen Zhaoci's mother passed away when he was very young, and he can no longer remember what she looked like.
I only remember that many people came to our small house. The coffin was placed in the living room, with a black and white photo hanging above it. Also because of the funeral, the family bought some candies, which are usually rare. One package was placed on the table above the coffin.
Chen Zhaoci really wanted to eat, but many people were talking and wiping tears. No one cares about him. Finally, he waited until his father was alone, pulled the adult's sleeve and said, "Dad, I want some candy!" His father raised his head and looked like a wild beast, his eyes were red and bloodshot, and there was a strong smell of alcohol. His father slapped him on the face and cursed, "You heartless little bastard!"
He was just a little boy and was knocked to the ground. Some people were trying to persuade his father and some were watching him. Chen Zhaoci flattened his lips and began to cry loudly, which resulted in his father beating him even more severely.
…
From then on, Chen Zhaoci hated funerals, and hated everything and everyone at funerals.
