The Devil is Lurking By Your Side

Chapter 117

Lin Xin slowly closed the phone after hearing Officer Tang hurriedly finished speaking. When she turned to look at the young boy, she saw a look of expectation on his face.

After a long time, Lin Xin took her phone back into her trouser pocket, sighed, and said to Lu Feng, "Mr. Lu, why don't you go back first? We suddenly have something important to do. You should go to the office of the Public Security Bureau first. A police officer will record your report for you. We will contact you again after we finish the matter."

Lin Xin's tone was slightly uncomfortable. Lu Feng was a wise man. He immediately noticed something was wrong, and he couldn't help panicking.

"Police officer, did you find something? Did you find Dong Hongwei? Tell me, tell me!" Lu Feng changed his trembling look, couldn't help but stand up from his chair, and shouted at Lin Xin. .

In order to get the news, he did not hesitate to raise his voice to Lin Xin, as if he had forgotten that he was in the Public Security Bureau at the moment. How could he, a weakly literate boy, be able to fight any police officer in the Public Security Bureau? However, for the sake of Dong Hongwei, he has lost his mind, and he wants to get the answer immediately.

Yang Cong later came over from behind, pressed his shoulder, and said in a deep voice, "Mr. Lu, we have asked you to go back first. If we have news from Dong Hongwei, we will naturally find you first, you Don't worry for now."

Lu Feng’s shoulder was pressed by Yang Cong at this time, but he cared about Dong Hongwei more than ordinary people. He yelled frantically and said, "Don’t lie to me! You obviously have news about Dong Hongwei, but they refuse to tell. Me! Dong Hongwei is alive or dead, I want to know, don't stop me! Police officer, I will go with you!"

Lin Xin felt a little embarrassed to see him like this. However, when she saw the sincere feelings in Lu Feng’s eyes, she sighed and comforted him: "Mr. Lu, we did find a corpse, but whether the corpse is a male or female, and what identity is it? We all don’t know. The deceased may be someone else, not necessarily Dong Hongwei, so you don’t make any conclusions. After we find out the identity of the deceased, we will naturally tell you. You should go back first, and don’t stop our police from handling the case. "

Speaking of later, Lin Xin's tone became serious, and with a sense of majesty, Lu Feng finally regained his senses, and then no longer dared to yell in the Public Security Bureau.

However, what he didn't realize was that Lin Xin only told him half of the truth. As for the other half of the truth, she was buried in her heart.

The deceased was a young woman. Lin Xin didn't want to tell Lu Feng the truth for the time being. She was afraid that after he knew it, he would quarrel and even wanted to follow the police officers to the scene where the body was thrown.

Seeing Lin Xin's lips pressed tightly, Lu Feng knew that she would not let herself follow, so he lowered her head and left the conference hall dejectedly. He came to the front desk of the Public Security Bureau office and asked the police officer to report his case. Transcripts.

When Lin Xin wanted to step out of the Public Security Bureau, she suddenly remembered something. She turned her head and walked quickly to Lu Feng, and asked, "When you and Dong Hongwei went to the bar that night, were you two alone?"

"Yes, police officer, it's just me and her." Lu Feng nodded and said.

"So, besides you and her, is there anyone else coming to strike up a conversation with you?" Lin Xin asked.

"No..." When Lu Feng denied it, Lin Xin's eyes showed a little disappointment, but it was fleeting. Unexpectedly, Lu Feng suddenly said, "But police officer, when I was drinking with Dong Hongwei, a woman came to me to dance."

Lin Xin felt tight and quickly asked, "What does that woman look like?"

Lu Feng tilted his head and thought for a while, trying to remember the woman he met in the bar last Friday, and said: "She is older than us, but under the dim light, I can't see her face clearly, and she There is also a pair of heavy makeup, so I can’t tell whether she looks pretty or not. However, the woman and Xiao Wei are of the same figure, perhaps taller than Xiao Wei. The height is about 175 cm, which is taller than the average girl."

Taller than the average girl?

There seemed to be a glimmer of aura in Lin Xin's mind, but she quickly disappeared, as if something was ready to come out. However, she was on official business now, so she had to temporarily set aside this hazy, fleeting thought.

"Okay, I see." Lin Xin nodded, and took Yang Cong and Mei Hua away from the Public Security Bureau, leaving only Lu Feng staring at them from the back.

The three people came to the black car and sat in, still driving by Yang Cong. Seeing him slam on the gas pedal, he immediately ran to the door of the Public Security Bureau.

"Sister Lin, what direction?" Yang Cong asked without looking back, staring at the road in front of him.

"Go ahead and walk straight for more than ten kilometers to the river bank, where the body was found." Lin Xin said calmly, but at the same time there was a burst of anger in her heart.

The murderer threw the body twice, both on the riverside. However, no one found the whereabouts of the murderer. This murderer was too cunning.

Had it not been reported by Lu Feng today, who knew if the body could be found so quickly?

Although the deceased may not be Dong Hongwei.

However, at least now they realized that apart from Dong Hongwei, there was also a young woman who died in Longshi, just like Chen Yanling.

"Sister Lin, isn't this riverside where Chen Yanling's body was found last time?" Mei Hua sat up straight from behind and asked Lin Xin.

"Yes, it's the riverside. It's just that what I didn't expect was that the murderer dared to throw the body there twice. Is he so bold? Not afraid that someone will find him?" Lin Xin frowned and said, I told them my thoughts.

"Sister Lin, his purpose of throwing the body into the river should be very simple, right? He wants to destroy the body, or else he wants to use the river water to wash away the evidence on the body of the deceased." Yang Cong said with the same expression. serious.

"Yes, that's probably the purpose of the murderer throwing the body into the river. However, we don't know if it is the same murderer." Lin Xin said, and at the same time faintly expected that the person involved in this case was the murder of Chen Yanling and Chen Yanling. The same murderer of Peng Jingchun.

"Sexual assault and murder can be committed by different people, but how do we know that he and the murderer who killed Chen Yanling and Peng Jingchun are the same person?" Mei Hua asked again in her chest.

"Mei Hua, what kind of person was the murderer who killed Chen Yanling and Peng Jingchun?" Lin Xin asked, turning her head to look at Mei Hua.

"They are all fetishists." Mei Hua said.

"Yes, they are all fetishists. So, when we came to the riverside, the first thing we were looking for was the high heels worn by the dead woman. I wanted to see if there were cracks in her high heels. Or maybe the murderer’s methods were more extreme this time. Maybe he even took away the high heels of the deceased woman. It’s unknown.” Lin Xin raised her eyebrows, and at the same time, Lu Feng faintly appeared in her head and said to herself just now. if.

The woman dancing with him is about the same height as Xiao Wei.

So, is it possible that the deceased woman in the river was not Xiao Wei, but the woman?

However, the current speculation cannot be of any great use at all. Lin Xin must wait until the identity of the deceased woman is confirmed before Lin Xin can make the next judgment on the case.

Before long, Yang Cong drove the car smoothly to the bank of the river. After Lin Xin waited for him to turn off the flame, she immediately jumped out of the car and saw Officer Tang from a distance.

At this time, the scene was once again surrounded by a yellow cordon, and Officer Tang frowned.

Lin Xin walked up to him and asked, "How's it going?"

"They are still salvaging the corpse." Officer Tang pointed to the police officers and forensic doctors who were salvaging the corpse not far away, and said in a deep voice.

Lin Xin nodded, then glanced around randomly, and saw that the trace inspector was lying on the grass and inspecting all suspicious traces such as footprints and wheel prints.

"Inspector Lin, Longshi is really unfavorable this year. The murder case did not happen at all, and once it happened, there were two in a row, alas..." Officer Tang said with a sigh at this moment.

"Of course, because the Cai brothers are living here." Lin Xin said lightly, staring at the corpse that was salvaged by the crowd.

"Inspector Lin, it feels like they are a plague." Officer Tang said helplessly.

"Whether it is a plague god, we will check the corpse first. However, if our previous guess and the confession of Brother Cai are correct, it is very likely that a third corpse will not appear in Longshi, because The Chua brothers have been arrested by us, and the murderer, without such a scapegoat, dare not act at will in any case." Lin Xin said.

While talking, the body has been successfully salvaged.

"Let's go, let's look at the corpse first." After Lin Xin finished speaking, she strode towards the corpse, while Officer Tang walked beside her.

The forensic doctor had already squatted aside to examine the body carefully. Lin Xin glanced at the body and feet of the deceased, and saw that her body was slightly larger, and the soles of her feet were larger than those of ordinary women.

It seems that another taller woman was killed.

"According to the preliminary examination, the death of the deceased should not exceed one day." The forensic doctor looked at the corpse and said.

He paused, pointed at the corpse naked, and said, "She might have been sexually assaulted."

Therefore, like Chen Yanling, she was sexually assaulted by the murderer.

Lin Xin saw that the police officers were searching for physical evidence, and then whispered to Officer Tang, “The shoes of the deceased’s feet have fallen off. She is not like wearing sneakers, but more like wearing slippers and high heels. But, Look at her clothing, she is not wearing sportswear, but a **** one-piece dress. So, she probably stayed in bars or dinner parties, and most women who have been to these places wear high heels at their feet, right?"

"So, you mean she has been to a bar or dinner, or even a nightclub?" Officer Tang asked.

"Yes." Lin Xin nodded firmly at this time.

But who is this dead woman?

Is it Dong Hongwei or the unknown woman who danced with Lu Feng?
