Qin Nan's eyes widened as the familiar ringtone rang in his ears again. This originally normal children's song seemed to have become a "symphony" that he would never forget!
In this moment, he almost recalled some of the things that happened before his death last night.
He suddenly looked towards the crowd, trying to find the source of the sound, but the familiar cell phone ringtone disappeared among the crowd.
Qin Nan couldn't help but frown and stared at everyone in the crowd, but everyone in the crowd looked very normal, and no suspicious person was seen.
But he was certain that the murderer must be among the onlookers, because in his memory, the murderer would definitely return to the scene the next day! This is almost an unchanging law!
Song Yi looked at Qin Nan who looked a little nervous at this time. He also looked in Qin Nan's direction. He was a little confused and asked:
"Old Qin, what, what's wrong?" Song Yi asked.
Qin Nan reacted instantly, raised his chin with his right hand, thought for a moment, frowned and said:
"I wonder if you heard any cell phone ringtone just now?"
"It seems there is, what's wrong?" Song Yi asked doubtfully.
It was impossible for Qin Nan to tell everything that happened last night, because some of the details of the case could not be explained at all. After thinking about it, he said:
"Officer Song, what I want to say is that maybe the victim was distracted by something before he died. In addition, it rained last night, such as the ringtone of his cell phone..."
Just when Qin Nan wanted to continue talking, Ma Xiaotao, who was not far away, said to Song Yi and others:
"Captain Song, I have made a new discovery. Come here quickly!" Qin Nan and Song Yi walked towards Ma Xiaotao. She pointed to the three empty bowls on the ground and said:
"Captain Song, look, maybe the victim's attention was attracted by these things, but...it's not a cell phone ringtone or anything like that."
Ma Xiaotao rolled her eyes at Qin Nan and said.
Qin Nan shook his head helplessly. He sighed and thought to himself: I want to see what this person named Ma Xiaotao has to say. Is it a mule or a horse, haha.
Ma Xiaotao looked at Qin Nan's slightly red cheeks and could see that he was a little angry, and she felt even more proud in her heart.
What Ma Xiaotao didn't know was that Qin Nan was angry because he personally experienced being killed last night.
Ma Xiaotao smiled and said to everyone:
"I just asked the students around me. It's unlikely that any students were passing by last night. After all, the murderer wasn't stupid enough to not turn off his phone before committing the crime.
Isn’t this easy to find? After all, the victim is not a fool. Look at the empty bowls and food on the ground. There must be students feeding stray cats nearby. Take a look.”
Ma Xiaotao pointed to two orange cats on the tree. The two cats were also looking at the group of people below. When the two cats' eyes moved to Qin Nan,
He began to become a little restless, as if he had seen something scary, and then immediately jumped down from the tree and fled towards the open area.
After Xiaotao saw the two orange cats escaping, she continued to say to everyone:
"I initially suspect that the victim was attracted by these stray cats, because at night, there is no one around here, and stray cats also like to gather here.
The victim may have been preparing to put some food for the cats, so when he wasn't paying attention, the murderer hit him on the back of the head with a blunt instrument, and then..."
Song Yi nodded repeatedly after hearing this, and several police officers around her also agreed with her reasoning.
Qin Nan also felt that what she said was true, but didn't he know how he died, and there were uncertainties about those cats.
"Detective Qin? What do you think?!" Ma Xiaotao played with her long hair with her right hand and said to Qin Nan with some pride.
"Not very good." Qin Nan said expressionlessly, then took two steps forward and looked at the location where the phone fell yesterday, but found nothing at all.
Qin Nan wanted to tell them that there was a mobile phone here yesterday, but he couldn't find any clues to convince them.
"Detective Qin, you don't have to look. I've looked all around here. There won't be any valuable clues.
Now we just need to ask the teachers and classmates around the victim to see if he has any enemies, or if he has any enemies with whom he is closest."
"Well, Xiaotao is right. Let's start investigating the people around the victim. Maybe there will be new discoveries." Song Yi said to Qin Nan and several surrounding police officers.
Qin Nan nodded thoughtfully. For some reason, there was a voice in his heart telling him not to investigate the case when there were many people, but to come back at night when no one was around.
The source of this sound seemed to come from Qin Nan's original body, not from the reborn Zhao Liang.
Song Yi ordered several policemen under him and began to investigate the teachers and classmates around Zhao Liang.
At this time, Qin Nan was also a little sleepy and had no intention of investigating this case now.
Song Yi saw that something was not right with Qin Nan's mental state at this time, so he said to Qin Nan:
"I'll take you home. I'll also go back to the police station. The scene has been thoroughly investigated. Let's wait until my men investigate the people around the victim."
Qin Nan also wanted to investigate his case, but at this time, his thoughts were completely occupied by tiredness. After being reborn, he seemed to get sleepy easily.
Qin Nan nodded, so Song Yi drove Qin Nan on the way home.
Along the way, the two were silent for a long time, and Qin Nan didn't know what to say. At this moment, he just wanted to sleep.
"Old Qin, I feel like you've changed, you're not like you anymore, really." Song Yi said.
Qin Nan was stunned by his question. He really didn't know how to answer this question.
"Before, you wouldn't call me Officer Song or anything like that, but now..." Song Yi paused and continued.
"Song, Lao Song, I've been a little out of shape these past two days. I'm really sorry..." Qin Nan stammered in explanation.
"Haha, okay, I want to take you back. If you have any questions, we can talk about it tomorrow. I'm very happy that you can come today.
In fact, there is another thing, the reason why you appeared on the scene is that this case seems to be related to your long-missing girlfriend, I haven't told Xiaotao about this yet." Song Yi said with a frown.
He looked at Qin Nan, who was lying down, and wanted to see his reaction, but Qin Nan seemed to be about to fall asleep and did not say any more.
Qin Nan also knew something about his long-lost girlfriend, but this was not his girlfriend. He was just Zhao Liang who was reborn in Qin Nan. What he wants to figure out now is why he was killed!
Song Yi didn't talk to Qin Nan about anything related to the case along the way. Qin Nan had already fallen asleep on the passenger seat.
When he woke up, Qin Nan came to the community where he left.
After saying hello to Song Yi, he went upstairs, opened the door with body memory, took off his shoes, and fell directly on the sofa piled with dirty clothes.
The moment he lay down, he noticed the white medicine bottle on the desk not far away. When he woke up yesterday, there was a bitter taste in his mouth.
At this moment, he seemed to have a guess in his mind. He immediately stood up and picked up the white medicine bottle with the words "Valium" written on it. It was no wonder that he felt very tired when he woke up.
He frowned and had a guess in his mind: Qin Nan is still dead!
And he himself was reborn in Qin Nan's body by some strange combination of circumstances. He didn't know why.
At this time, he accidentally saw a photo of Qin Nan and a woman on his desk. When he saw the woman's appearance, his pupils couldn't help but dilate.
He slowly opened his mouth, looked at the photo in surprise and said to himself:
"This, isn't this Teacher Xiao, Xiao Lu?!"
At the same time, Qin Nan's head fell into dizziness. He put his hands on the desk and squinted his eyes slightly. Some fragments that did not belong to him began to emerge from his mind...
"Xiaolu, where are you going? Don't leave, okay?"
"Yes, I'm sorry, Lao Qin, there's something going on in my hometown..." Xiaolu pursed her lips and looked out the window.
"Tell me what happened, and we'll solve it together!" Qin Nan stretched out his hands and held Xiaolu's hand, pleading.
She looked at me, put her left hand on her chest, and held the pocket watch tightly on her chest. Her lips seemed to be motionless, as if she had something to say.
She looked out the window again, and her expression became very nervous, as if she saw something.
Then he vigorously pulled Qin Nan's hands away and walked out of the house...
