Unknowingly, it was past ten o'clock in the evening. The train was running through the dark night, like a huge iron dragon roaring across the earth. People in the carriage gradually fell asleep amidst the bumps, except for the rhythmic train.
Apart from the background sounds of the train, the carriage is quiet.
Duan Rumeng was lying on the bed and turned to look at He Xiaohui opposite, and saw that she had her eyes closed and seemed to be asleep. Looking at her swollen dark circles, Rumeng felt a burst of sadness in her heart. She had nothing to do with the police.
She had never had any interaction with the police in her previous life, but they worked so hard to protect her, which really moved her from the bottom of her heart.
Rumeng quietly got up and got out of bed. She had to go to the bathroom and then come back to sleep. She remembered what He Xiaohui had told her to accompany her when going to the bathroom, and a happy smile appeared on her face. She did not wake up He Xiaohui.
, on the contrary, he was careful not to make any noise, so as not to affect her rest.
Opening the door quietly, Rumeng looked at both sides of the corridor. In the empty corridor, there was only an old man with white hair sitting in the middle of the carriage. The old man turned his back to Rumeng and looked out the window at the dark night sky, wondering what he was thinking.
What.
Seeing someone coming out of the box, the old man turned his head and glanced at Rumeng, who also glanced at the old man. Their eyes did not meet, they just confirmed each other's presence.
Ru Meng walked past the old man and walked to the bathroom. The carriage was covered with carpet, and no one made any sound when walking on it. The bathroom was empty, so Rumeng opened the door and looked around. After entering the bathroom, he locked the door bolt.
When the old man saw Rumeng entering the bathroom, he immediately stood up and walked quickly to the bathroom. His actions did not look like an old man with white hair at all. This man was Mizuno Choji after makeup.
The reason Mizuno sat in the corridor for a long time was because she was waiting for this moment. He planned to take action in the dead of night when Rumeng went to the bathroom. He planned to wait outside the bathroom and wait for Rumeng to open it from inside.
He immediately forced the door open, strangled Rumeng's neck in the bathroom, and suffocated her to death. The bathroom was at the junction of the carriages, and the vibration of the train was very loud. Even if Rumeng screamed, no one would hear her.
arrive.
Shui Ye stood at the door of the bathroom and waited. The scene of Rumeng and Mizuno's wife Deng Yuting together flashed in his mind. Thinking of the way Deng Yuting looked when she lied to him, the hatred for Rumeng in his heart gradually strengthened. He no longer simply wanted to complete the task.
As part of his mission, he also has to remove the time bomb that will affect their relationship as husband and wife.
The sound of flushing water sounded in the bathroom. Mizuno knew that Rumeng would come out soon. He concentrated on waiting for the moment when the door clicked. Mizuno had used this killing technique many times and succeeded every time.
"Sir." Mizuno was startled by the voice behind him. He was so focused on listening to the sound of the door that he didn't notice that someone was already standing behind him. He quickly turned his head and saw his wife, Deng Yuting.
Stand in front of him.
"Sir, do you want to use the bathroom?" Deng Yuting asked again.
"Ah! No, no need." Mizuno stepped aside in panic and made room for the bathroom door.
At this time, the bathroom door made a "click" sound, Rumeng opened the door and saw Deng Yuting standing at the door.
"Oh, Mom, you're here too."
"Ru Meng, you are inside."
Rumeng walked out of the door, stretched out her hand to support Deng Yuting, and said to her:
"Mom, be careful, it's slippery inside."
"Hey, you go back first."
"It's okay, Mom, I'll wait for you at the door."
Mizuno stood behind Rumeng, listening to the conversation between mother and daughter. Although he had suspected that they were mother and daughter in the past, he had not confirmed it. Now that she heard their conversation with her own ears, the fire of anger in her heart was boiling, and she felt strong.
It impacted his brain. Now he could reach out and strangle Rumeng's throat. He could make her fall into coma in ten seconds, and she would suffocate to death in two minutes.
Shui Ye raised his hand, but he slowly lowered it. Killing Ru Meng in the corridor, there is nowhere to hide the body, and Deng Yuting saw himself again before entering, so he will not be able to escape. Reason defeated impulse, Shui Ye
He returned to his old man's state, holding on to the handrails on the carriage wall, and walked back to where he was sitting just now.
Mizuno looked out the window, watching Deng Yuting and Duan Rumeng walking back side by side with the corner of his eyes. Under the calm appearance, the jealousy and anger in his heart violently impacted his heart. He must kill this woman, he
think.
"Buzzing buzzing" The mobile phone on He Xiaohui's chest suddenly vibrated. She grabbed the mobile phone and opened her eyes just in time to see Duan Rumeng and Deng Yuting coming in from the box. She had no time to look at the phone and asked Rumeng quickly.
"Why are you out?"
"It's okay, I went to the bathroom with my mom."
He Xiaohui looked at the mother and daughter who were safe, breathed a sigh of relief, closed the door of the box and locked the door bolt.
A message from Dr. Qiao appeared in the group.
Dr. Qiao: Captain He, I just recalled that from the time I got on the bus to the incident, I was not in the box for a period of time. The deceased was sleeping at that time. At this time, other people may have dropped the water into the bag.
He Xiaohui: Was there anyone else in the box at that time?
Dr. Qiao: There was an old man and a woman.
He Xiaohui: Do you want to ask them about the situation?
Dr. Qiao: I mean the same thing, but I can't do this alone.
He Xiaohui: It is not appropriate for Deng Ru and Yiran to disclose their identities at the moment. You can call the police.
Dr. Qiao: This is a good idea!
The train was already halfway through its journey, and some passengers in the soft sleeper car had already got off the train. With the efforts of the conductor, they vacated a box in the No. 1 soft sleeper car for Dr. Qiao and the police officer to use as a temporary interrogation room.
The white-haired old man was called over first. The old man seemed a little nervous. When he saw the young man and the policeman who had just changed berths with him when he got on the bus, his nervousness seemed to be even more intense.
"Old man, don't be nervous, we will ask you a few questions." Dr. Qiao said.
"Oh, oh, are you a police officer?"
"Yes, I am a forensic doctor. I happened to encounter a case in the car, so I helped the police to deal with it."
"Oh, I don't know anything." The old man's mood seemed to be more stable.
"It doesn't matter, we are just doing a routine registration. Please tell us your name, place of origin and where to get off."
"My name is Zhang Jianjun, from Zhongjiang. I got off the bus in Haizhou to see my grandson."
"Okay, please show us your ID card."
The old man took out his ID card and handed it to the police officer, who registered the ID card information.
"Were you in the box from the time you got on the bus to before dinner?"
"I went to the toilet twice and spent the rest of the time sitting in the box or at the door."
"Then did you see anyone else enter the box?"
"I didn't see it, but I took a nap in the afternoon."
After questioning the old man, the conductor called the young woman in the box over. The woman complained about being woken up in the middle of the night, and kept mumbling.
"Please show us your ID card, tell us your name, place of origin and where to get off."
The woman handed over her ID card, yawned and said reluctantly:
"My name is Han Yun, from Zhongjiang. I am on a business trip to Haizhou."
"You were the first to discover the deceased. Please tell us the specific circumstances at that time."
"Oh, it scared me to death." The woman finally came to her senses at this time.
"I wanted to go to the bathroom at that time and saw a lot of people at the door of the bathroom in Car No. 2, so I went to the bathroom in Car No. 3. When I went to Car No. 3, I saw the man holding the door, as if he was feeling uncomfortable.
I passed through Car No. 3, waited for a while, and when I came back from using the bathroom, I saw the man sitting on the ground foaming at the mouth."
"I was so frightened that I ran into the car and then I met you."
"Were you in the box the whole time before that?"
"The man's alcohol smell was too strong. He sat at the door for a long time. Later, the smell subsided and he went in to sleep. He basically stayed in the box and did not leave."
"Did you notice anyone entering the box?"
The woman tilted her head and thought for a moment before saying:
"No."
After finishing questioning the white-haired old man and the young woman, the clock had already pointed to 3 a.m. Dr. Qiao had a brief exchange with the police about the case, and Dr. Qiao also sent the inquiry to the group chat.
"Is the murderer in the car?" the policeman asked uneasily.
"It's hard to say now. Zhongjiang is checking the video, hoping to find traces of the murderer before the train arrives at the station."
"We will arrive in Haizhou in four hours. If the murderer is in the car, we need to find him before parking."
"Well, if I don't have enough time, can I ask the train to open later?"
"It may not be possible if you don't open the door. Passengers will be agitated. You can stop halfway if necessary, but this requires approval from the railway bureau."
"How many people are on this train?"
"We just made statistics after leaving the front station. There are 102 people in the soft sleeper car, 607 people in the hard sleeper car, and 421 people in the hard seat car. There are currently 1,130 people on the train."
"If we have to check it again, how long will it take?"
"When we conduct security inspections, it usually takes three hours to complete the inspection."
"If you can find the person's name, will it be difficult to investigate?"
"That would be very easy. We now sell tickets under real names, and you can check passenger information on our handheld terminals."
"Well, I hope they can find the image of the murderer and then find the name of the murderer." Dr. Qiao said.
After communicating with the police, Dr. Qiao lay in bed and did not dare to fall asleep. He was thinking about how to catch the murderer if he got into the car with Huang Kangcheng. Thinking of this, he picked up his mobile phone and posted in the group
a message.
Dr. Qiao: If the murderer got on the train, we will need support later when we investigate the murderer.
He Xiaohui: Okay. I can't leave here. Deng Ruhe Yiran can follow as passengers and attack immediately if there is any situation.
Deng Ru, Ding Yiran: Received.
Dr. Qiao: Okay, now we are waiting for the news from Zhongjiang.
The train ran wildly in the vast darkness, carrying more than a thousand passengers towards Haizhou.
