Lao Duan was lying on the ground and saw someone unconscious in the living room through the crack in the door. He quickly got up and told his son: "Hurry up and kick the door. Someone is in shock inside. I'm going to call an ambulance now."
His son nodded immediately: "I understand."
As soon as he finished speaking, he gathered strength, raised his foot, and was about to kick the door open with all his strength when he suddenly heard someone behind him yelling and asking: "What are you doing?!"
Lao Duan's eldest son turned around subconsciously, and in the blink of an eye he was caught with his hands pressed against the wall. His father was grabbed by the shoulders by another person, but soon he heard his father's surprised call: "Mr. Jiang?"
Jiang Heng frowned and let go of Lao Duan: "Is that you?" He looked at Li Zan: "They live across the street."
Old Duan: "We are neighbors here, and he is my son. Please let go."
Li Zan let go of Lao Duan's son. He was about to speak but suddenly smelled the media, and gas was still flowing out from the crack in the door.
"There is a gas leak in the back room." Li Zan asked Lao Duan, "Is there anyone inside?"
Old Duan: "Two people are unconscious in the living room. Judging from the concentration of the gas smell, the gas should have leaked for at least 20 minutes. The two people inside are probably in a state of shock. If it were a few minutes later, they might not be able to be saved."
Li Zan knew it very well. He pushed the door and observed the door lock.
Old Duan: "The door is locked. I can't contact the landlord. I've called the police and am about to call an ambulance. Don't waste time, kick in the door and save people."
"Wait a minute." Li Zan and Jiang Heng stopped him at the same time.
They looked at each other without saying a word, but they both understood each other's concerns in an instant.
"Just in case, it's better to be careful." Jiang Heng: "You can't pray for a serial killer to be kind."
"You're right." Li Zan turned around and asked Lao Duan: "Besides the front door, is there any other way to quickly enter the room?"
Lao Duan shook his head and said no, "Can't this door be opened?"
Li Zan: "Safety comes first." He didn't say much, but if hitting the door has a certain chance of causing an explosion, it would be a serious matter for dozens of lives of neighbors, upstairs and downstairs. "Is there really no other way?"
Lao Duan shook his head, and Lao Duan's son suddenly said: "Yes! There is a flower trough on the balcony of room c1102. The flower trough is connected to the flower trough of this room but separated by a wall. But if you are careful, you can get it from the flower trough.
Climb over the trough." He turned around and pointed to the room next door and said, "This is the room!"
Jiang Heng approached the room, stepped over in two steps, looked at the door lock and asked, "No one lives in this room?"
Old Duan: "There are two foreigners living here. But I haven't seen anyone coming or going since a week ago. Maybe they are on a business trip."
Jiang Heng: "Get out of the way." He took two steps back, kicked open the door of the next door with a backswing, and the dusty pavement filled with the stench of decay came out.
Jiang Heng covered his mouth and nose and stood in front of Li Zan to remind him: "There is too much dust."
Lao Duan and Lao Duan's son could no longer stop coughing and were vomiting due to inhaling the foul smell.
Li Zan frowned when he smelled the stench, but he didn't have time to think too much. He just asked Jiang Heng to notify the criminal investigation team to come over immediately, and then quickly rushed into the house.
Jiang Heng followed in and turned on the light first.
The lights were bright and the room was filled with dust. Li Zan had already opened the floor-to-ceiling window of the balcony and climbed onto the cement-sealed flower trough, and was trying to climb to the balcony next door.
The planter in this room is in the same location as the planter next door. A red brick wall less than half a meter wide separates the balconies of the two rooms. If you can climb out of the security fence, you can cross this less than half-meter-wide balcony.
The meter-wide red brick wall reached the balcony planter of the next door house, and then he climbed into the house through the escape hatch.
The operation is very simple. But this is the 11th floor.
Li Zan did not hesitate to open the escape hatch of the anti-theft fence and climbed outside. Trying not to lower his head to look below, he first stretched out one hand to hold the anti-theft fence on the balcony of the next door house, and then stretched out his foot to step on the opposite flower trough.
Now his whole body is hanging in the air on the 11th floor in the shape of a big character. If he is not careful, he will fall to pieces.
Jiang Heng stared at Li Zan who was walking on a tightrope with a serious face. He did not dare to say anything, and he would not be stupid enough to disturb Li Zan at this time. On the surface, he seemed calm, and he still had the energy to inform Lao Zeng and the conductor Lao Duan and his son. His hands were trembling and he was so nervous that he forgot to breathe. It was not until Li Zan safely crossed the escape hatch of the anti-theft barrier and heard Li Zan's safe answer that he exhaled a big breath and found that his chest was in pain due to lack of oxygen.
Li Zan, who successfully entered the house, opened the balcony for ventilation. When he saw the two people in shock in the living room and the mechanism behind the door, he couldn't help but break into a cold sweat.
With the concentration in this room, one cigarette is enough to kill countless people.
Shen Pingsha is a madman. Li Zan thought this, and then stepped forward to unlock the mechanism, ventilate the air, open the door, and then perform simple first aid on Duan Ning and Shi Wan.
Old Duan and his son and Jiang Heng in the next room heard the noise and rushed over quickly. Old Duan covered his mouth and nose: "What a heavy gas!"
Li Zan checked the pulses of Duan Ning and Shi Wan: "There is still a heartbeat, and they have lost consciousness. They have inhaled gas for too long, and the situation is critical. Now quickly transfer the patient to the vent for artificial respiration - has the ambulance arrived yet?!"
Jiang Heng went over and led the people to the corridor vent one by one with Li Zan and replied: "The ambulance is on the way and will be there soon."
In this room, Lao Duan said: "I always have an oxygen bag at home. Can that one be used?"
"bring here."
"My son went to get it - he took it out. Aceh, speed! Speed!"
"It's coming, it's coming!" Duan Qi flew to his knees and threw down the oxygen bag full of him with a "swipe" sound, "Use it quickly!"
Jiang Heng and Li Zan quickly caught the oxygen bags and opened them for Duan Ning and Shi Wan to use respectively. They did not slow down the use of oxygen bags until they were sure that their vital signs were slowly rising.
At this time, Duan Qi said: "The ambulance is coming! There seems to be police?"
Hearing this, Jiang Heng and Li Zan looked at each other face to face, and after a few seconds they both showed relaxed smiles.
A minute later, medical staff arrived at the scene to carry away the wounded and rushed to the hospital for first aid. On the way, Lao Zeng, who had received calls from Ji Chengling and Li Zan and led the team to Simen Village, also arrived.
After Lao Zeng learned about the situation, he was speechless.
"Is Shen Pingsha crazy?! Just for a wedding dress, he wants to kill a newlywed couple, not to mention indirectly kill the neighbors? It will be after work time, everyone is back - hiss !”
It's scary to think about it.
Old Duan and his son, who were listening to Li Zan's analysis, couldn't help but break into a cold sweat. It turned out that there was a mechanism behind the door! If Li Zan hadn't arrived in time, the whole family would have died the moment they kicked the door open!
"There is news from Ji Chengling that Shen Pingsha is not at his residence in Xinping Village. He and Chen Jie have gone to Shen Pingsha's company to arrest him. But judging from the situation, it is very likely that he is still nearby." Lao Zeng said: " I will take people to search nearby."
"Wait a minute, leave me a few people." Li Zan's eyes passed through the living room and balcony of Room C1102, and landed on the flower trough sealed by cement: "Help dig some things."
Lao Zeng didn't know why but didn't ask in detail. He was afraid that Shen Pingsha would slip away and not be caught.
"No problem." He left three people behind and hurriedly took the others away.
The three criminal policemen looked at Li Zan: "Captain Li, what do you want us to dig for?"
"Digging for treasures." Li Zan raised the corners of his lips, there was some dust on the side of his face, and his body was covered with dust and dirt, but he didn't show any embarrassment. Instead, he felt unruly and unruly: "There is a huge treasure hidden under the flower trough, go ahead, comrades , don’t live up to my high expectations.”
The three criminal police officers laughed loudly, then went to borrow digging tools and went into the house to dig balcony planters.
Jiang Heng was at the end of the corridor, with several pots of withered flowers and plants at his feet. When he heard footsteps approaching, he looked over and looked directly at Li Zan.
After a while, he opened his arms.
Li Zan stepped forward and hugged Jiang Heng. He was suspended high in the sky on the 11th floor without any safety measures. It was not that he was not afraid.
Jiang Heng: "Do you want to eat candy?"
Li Zan closed his eyes and leaned on Jiang Heng's shoulder and replied: "I want to smoke."
Jiang Heng: "Well, let's eat sweets."
Li Zan laughed and cursed a meaningless mantra.
He said this, but the two of them did not move. In the night, under the cover of the blind spot of the structure, they hugged quietly, using their body temperature to iron each other's tense nerves.
The evening breeze blows slowly, the midsummer starry night, the sweet words of lovers.
Room C1102.
After nearly 20 minutes of hammering and digging, the detectives finally dug out the cement of the balcony planter. The uneven stones were shattered all over the floor. The stench of rotten flesh became more obvious. The experienced detectives could see it in each other's eyes. Got the answer.
Under the gray cement full of pits, first the gray-white bedsheets with mold spots and dark red blood clots were exposed, then the rotten ankles revealing bones, then the upper body, head, and another corpse below with the same degree of decay.
When the wind blows, the bougainvillea planted in the flower trough on the balcony of the old Duan's house across the street sway and turn bright red, strongly announcing the arrival of midsummer.
Bright red flowers, the summer breeze is slightly dry, and the light floral fragrance mixed with a strong stench hits your nostrils.
The three criminal policemen looked at each other and looked at the two male corpses wrapped in blood-stained sheets with their heads and feet touching each other under the flower trough. They couldn't help but look back at the house. Only then did they realize that although the house was full of dust, all personal items were missing.
At the same time, Lao Zeng led his subordinates around Simen Village to search for traces of Shen Pingsha. After repeatedly asking nearby residents and shop owners, they finally located the scope of Shen Pingsha's activities at 6 o'clock.
There is another urban village just behind Simen Village. You can see the movement on the 11th floor of Building C of Simen Village at any time from any alley there.
Once it exploded, Shen Pingsha discovered it immediately.
Lao Zeng put one hand on his hip and held the butt of the cigarette with the other hand and said: "This piece of trash really doesn't want to leave! He must be still nearby waiting to see the tragedy happen. Everyone, pay attention - you all have photos of Shen Pingsha's life in your hands. Once you recognize it, Come out and arrest immediately! Now, disperse! Let’s go!”
"Yes!" Everyone replied loudly, dispersed in a well-trained manner, and quickly entered the streets and alleys to search for Shen Pingsha.
Lao Zeng chose the alley directly in front of him, put out his cigarette butt and walked in.
From 8pm to 9am the next morning in the urban village, the cleaners will come to collect the garbage in the four-wheel bins on time. They will first use their hands to pick out the empty water bottles and recyclables in the top layer of garbage bags. Cartons, then use hooks to reach the middle layer, and finally push down the trash cans to start sorting and processing.
The cleaner responsible for all the alleys behind No. 10 pushed the garbage truck to the innermost bin of No. 15 as usual, stopped, pulled the big black garbage bag and started looking for empty water bottles and cans.
She has gained a lot today. She has picked up two large bags full of empty water bottles and cans from the four alleys in front of her, as well as a lot of cardboard boxes.
The trash can in front of me was overflowing and exuding a foul smell. At first glance, it looked like it was all domestic garbage.
With her rich work experience, the cleaner could tell that there were not many valuable things in the trash can. She started collecting the garbage without much interest, and while she was doing it, she suddenly caught a glimpse of a black wallet.
She paused, picked up her wallet, opened it and looked at it: "Ah!"
Money, ID cards, bank cards, and credit cards are all there!
She might have lost it by accident, but the cleaner didn't dare to keep it for herself. She thought she would hand it over to the community office later. While talking about the community, the cleaner raised his head and was stunned. There seemed to be a bird sticking up in the half-covered garbage pile.
shoes and a piece of ankle.
The cleaner muttered nervously: No, no, no... Buddha bless Buddha bless...
'Click', a bag of garbage fell down. The cleaner was so frightened that he raised his toes and looked in. His eyes widened suddenly and he screamed: "Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh during on," the cleaner said.
--"
The cleaners ran away in panic, and the garbage bags were overwhelmed and fell down. There were many mosquitoes in the summer, and the annoying flies circled three or four times before spiraling down and landing on the faces of the dead bodies in the trash cans.
If any criminal police officer from the Dongcheng District Bureau showed up here, he would definitely recognize that this body was the murderer they were looking for - Shen Pingsha.
