Over the past ten years, this city has undergone earth-shaking changes. The only thing that remains unchanged is that there are still people who make a living by picking up garbage. The person who discovered Diao Aiqing's body was a cleaning woman who also picked up garbage. She was very happy when she found a piece of scrap metal.
I still want to eat the buns at home. More than ten years later, the cement garbage pool was replaced by a blue plastic trash can. A group of garbage pickers left, and then another group came, holding iron hooks.
, finding wealth in the things we throw away.
The poor in the city are like dandelions, floating in the wind above the concrete floor, helplessly looking for a little bit of soil to take root with a little bit of hope that can be shattered at any time.
The characteristic of the trash can is that it is honest and never lies. The rich and the poor are treated equally here. Everyone is equal here in the true sense. Every item is restored to its original appearance, and every thing finds its end here.
The dentures that lied finally became dentures, and the wine bottle that had witnessed the prostitution trade finally became a wine bottle. The cigarette butts smoked by the migrant workers and the leftover apple cores eaten by the ladies met here, and the faces on the broken coins met the spit on the tissues.
We meet again. The mask of false disguise is unveiled here, and the trash can has a symbolic meaning.
They drove around the city, passing Xiaofenxiang and the crematorium, passing Qingnian Road and Huaqiao Road, bypassing several dead ends, passing the scene where the body was dumped when the crime occurred, and passing through many streets.
and residential areas, even getting lost in the middle, and finally, they reached the end.
The four members of the special case team got out of the car. This was a large square filled with tourists and many people dancing and exercising. It could be seen that the square was just built a few years ago and there were some old houses around it. Maybe many years ago, this place was
It is a dilapidated residential area. There is a fountain in the center of the square, and there are several trash cans beside the pool.
A primary school student was sitting on the platform by the pool.
Su Mei pushed Professor Liang to stop in front of the trash can. Everyone looked around, singing and dancing.
Professor Liang bent down and said to the primary school students: You can play here by yourself. Where are your parents? Don’t get lost.
The primary school student said: Just now, someone asked me.
Su Mei: What do you want me to ask you?
Primary school student: Ask me where I am playing, ask where my parents are.
Bao Zhan: Who is that person?
Elementary school student: I don’t know.
Professor Liang said: What does it look like?
The primary school student shook his head and said: It's very common.
The primary school student is probably in the first grade. It is very difficult for a first-grade child to describe his appearance. He thought for a while and then said: Big pants, vest, and white gloves.
Hua Long said: White gloves, that person is wearing gloves?
The primary school student nodded.
The four members of the special case team immediately became alert. It was September, the weather was still very hot, and one person was wearing gloves, which was very suspicious.
Professor Liang immediately asked: How old is that person?
Bao Zhan pointed to a middle-aged man in his 40s and nearly 50s in the square and said: Is that man as old as him?
The primary school student nodded.
Professor Liang asked: What else did that person do?
The primary school student said: throw away the garbage.
Hualong and Bao Zhan immediately overturned the trash can. According to the elementary school students' tips, they found a ball of paper thrown by the stranger. From the handwriting and the yellowed and soft paper, they could preliminarily judge that this paper had been preserved for at least ten years.
.The paper is very smooth and has just been crumpled. Before that, this paper may have been sandwiched in a book.
The content recorded above is mixed with local dialects and vulgar swear words. It seems that the writer has no education. However, the strange thing is that the font is very beautiful. What is even more suspicious is that the distance between the words is not consistent. There are several words that are far apart from each other.
The characters are far away and appear lonely, so they can be seen at a glance.
The full text is transcribed below. In order to distinguish those few prominent words, they are specially marked in black and eye-catching fonts:
Today's society is dark and dark. You have to open the back door for everything, and you have to have connections for everything. There are few rich people, but there are many people with such money. There are singers, movie actors, and five-to-six sluts.
, twist your butt, just bring money. People with so much money are so tired that they can’t even get a few bucks. It’s only a few dollars a month, and there’s no money to support them. Who can listen to me, Shao Shao, these little guys?
Paozizi, the registration and relocation are really messed up, your mother is a bastard, the guy wearing a big hat is tearing up the boat, asking who the representative represents, the birdman who eats public food, talking nonsense and 25
, greedy, greedy, caught, the radish tassels were replaced with cabbage, transferred away, the cabbage was replaced with radish and cherry blossoms. I am working as a cow and a horse, how can I spend my days hanging out, I am wasting my time, don’t ask me what I want to do.
, I want to live a decent life, so I thought, find someone to chop off the old melon seeds, chop off the fingers, thumbs and feet.
There are seven characters in total, which are very eye-catching in the text. They should be left out intentionally by the writer. They are arranged in order as follows: Kai, Wu, Yes, Table, Person, He, Diao.
This passage is very much like the confession of a murderer. Hua Long immediately looked for a middle-aged man wearing big pants, a vest and white gloves in the square. The square was crowded with people. There was a crossroad nearby. If a person wanted to leave,
In just a few minutes, you can disappear into the night and into the sea of people, never to be found again.
Professor Liang and Bao Zhan asked the primary school students in detail what the middle-aged man looked like. The primary school students could not give an accurate description. They just told the police that the man was very ordinary and ordinary, just like everyone walking by on the street.
In fact, every seemingly ordinary person around us has another side behind him that is unknown to everyone.
The special case team may have missed the real murderer.
After the special case team returned to the police station, they analyzed that some murderers kept something belonging to their victims out of abnormal psychology. What the police found was not Diao Aiqing's complete body. It was never known where the missing part was thrown.
Found it. According to the murderer's habit of dumping corpses, he might have thrown it into the trash can.
These words may have been written by the murderer.
The special case team carried out handwriting identification with the last glimmer of hope, but the results were discouraging. These words were not written by Hunchback, nor by Xia Yuping and Huang Baicheng. They checked and compared the handwriting of every suspect who appeared overnight.
No match found.
At dawn, the special case team was about to give up. They analyzed the information hidden in the seven words all night long, but still could not solve the puzzle. The whole night was in vain. After a short rest, they should go to the airport and leave Lanjing.
Already.
Professor Liang looked out the window and saw the faint morning light on the horizon. He said: There is a person whose handwriting we forgot to compare.
Su Mei said: Who?
Professor Liang said: A dead person.
Hualong said: We have checked everything we can.
Bao Zhan said: Do you mean...
Professor Liang said: Diao Aiqing.
The notorious Keystone Killer in the United States made his victims drag their own intestines to clean the crime scene. Both the Son of Sam and the Zodiac Killer had written letters to the police. The Son of Sam would also deliberately leave marks when committing crimes.
Professor Liang analyzed that the murderer may have forced Diao Aiqing to write those words before killing her. This is why the writing was beautiful and neat, but the content was full of swear words. Diao Aiqing was a college student, educated and intelligent, and he must have known the danger to himself at the time.
situation, so she deliberately left clues. The seven empty words are the seven passwords, which should hint at the identity of the murderer. If this mystery is solved, the truth may be revealed.
Su Mei said: The strokes of those seven characters may form a phone number or a house number.
Hualong said: It could also be a paging number. Ten years ago, pagers were popular at that time.
Bao Zhan said: I guessed the first three characters, but I couldn't decipher the last four.
Professor Liang said: What?
Bao Zhan said: The character "kai" has 4 strokes in total, and the character "五" also has 4 strokes. There is a word that happens to be composed of two characters with 4 strokes. Add the character "YES" at the end, and then
These three hidden words are connected together.
Professor Liang said: No need to explain, let us all guess the remaining words. First, what are the first three hidden words?
