Dark Cave - part 5 - Chapter 21
Professor Ren, Ren Quan, the person who had truly “ watched ” him grow up and treated him like an elder, had fallen from the altar in his heart. And he had fallen so miserably and in such a miserable state.
If that ugly scene really happened, why didn’t Huang Shiyi tell me? Yes, that would be very embarrassing. Ren Quan and Guanjian had been friends for many years; Guanjian and Huang Shiyi had a passionate love. This stroke would add an extremely unnatural color to both relationships. But she was not the kind of coward who ” endures humiliation ” . Perhaps, she told Chu Wenguang about this. Chu Wenguang had long been a good friend of Guanjian and Huang Shiyi. They were both killed at almost the same time.
before the experiment began . Toyokawa Takeshi and Chiba Fumika, whose face was still slightly flushed after drinking, were already sorting out the experimental equipment. The specially rented pain detector had been delivered, and they would be subjected to another experiment in the underground passage tonight.
Guan Jian walked quietly into Ren Quan’s office and closed the door.
” Xiao Jianjian , you’ll have to work hard again tonight. They’re going to focus on testing your pain perception. ”
” It doesn’t matter. The pain that really leaves a lasting impression is the pain outside the body, such as Shishi’s death. ”
Ren Quan sighed: ” I can totally understand …”
” Oh? Really ? ”
Ren Quan obviously also sensed the difference in the key tone. ” Of course , you know, Xiao Huang, most of the time, working in this office of mine, I still often feel that Xiao Huang, she … her figure is still here …”
” Here , to arouse the evil thoughts of an elder? ”
” What did you say?! ”
” You have the courage to do it, why don’t you have the courage to admit it? ” Guan Jian suddenly felt that he had lost control. His hands had already tightly grasped Ren Quan’s collar, getting tighter and tighter. Ren Quan’s breathing immediately became rapid. He tried to say something, but his voice was stuck in his throat.
” It was you who killed Shishi, it was you who killed Chu Wenguang, for the sake of your career and moral perfection, right? ”
In all these days, Guan Jian felt that his advantage as a swimming athlete was used for the first time, but unfortunately, it was against an old man over 50 years old. No, it was against a murderer, a murderer in his mind.
Ren Quan struggled hard, the teacup on the table fell to the ground, and the computer chair at his feet fell to the ground.
” Guanjian , stop it! ” Several members of the experimental team rushed in together. Toyokawa Takeshi and Kikuno Yuji grabbed Guanjian’s arms on the left and right and pulled him away. ” Guanjian , you almost strangled Professor Ren to death! ” Anzaki Sachiko’s voice was full of fear.
Ren Quan was breathing hard, coughing repeatedly, his face was red, and his reading glasses had fallen to some place. ” The key point … I may have done something wrong, but I don’t have the ability to kill innocent people! Do you think I am indifferent to Xiao Huang’s death? Have you ever thought about my original intention of facilitating Dr. Yamashita and these Japanese friends to come to the institute to do experiments ? ” Ren Quan’s voice trembled.
The key is to look out the window at the night and try to calm yourself down.
Anzaki Sachiko walked up to him , placed her hand gently on his shoulder, and whispered his name.
Ren Quan’s office faced the small lawn in the backyard, and the strange little iron platform by the wall in the distance still stood alone. Guan Jian suddenly saw a dark figure standing next to the iron platform.
An Qi Sachiko also looked down , and saw the shadow flash and run towards the back door of the institute. Guan Jian had already run downstairs. An Qi Sachiko also ran across the back lawn and ran to the back door. The door was locked, and Guan Jian paced angrily in front of the door and kicked it.
” The key ! ” Anzaki Sachiko shouted, but didn’t know how to continue.
” Don’t worry about me! ”
An Qi Sachiko turned around and walked back silently. Guan Jian suddenly felt that she was extremely rude, and didn’t know how to apologize, so she just called out: ” Sachiko! ”
had no choice but to call out again: ” Sachiko! ” and then he ran up to her and said, ” I’m sorry, I’m a bit like a lunatic tonight. ”
” I think you should be careful about jumping to conclusions. I can tell you that for a long time, I believed that there was no better explanation than that you were the murderer. ”
Guan Jian felt a little angry: ” No wonder you were so hot and cold when I first met you … You dressed like Shishi at the beginning, it turned out that you wanted to stimulate me, make me fearful, and restless about your own ‘ crime ‘ . ”
Sachiko Anzaki turned around and stared at the key point: ” You have guessed it. I really thought so at the beginning. On the first day I arrived, I asked Fang Ping and others in the laboratory what kind of clothes Shishi used to wear, and then I bought them deliberately to test your reaction, hoping that Shishi’s image would stimulate something in your subconscious mind, and express it in the experiment to prove your guilt. ”
” You must still be suspicious of me, right? It was me who led you to focus the investigation on Yamashita Masahiro’s life experience, which seems to be contrary to the original intention of finding out the truth about Shishi’s murder …” Guanjian was a little frustrated.
” On the contrary, I feel more and more that you are using all your energy to find the truth. There may be subtle connections between Shishi’s death, Yamashita Masahiro’s death, Shishi’s father’s death, and my father’s death, and we have to sort them out. ” Under the night sky, Anzaki Sachiko’s eyes were firm and sincere.
Guan Jian nodded , and his mind became more open: ” Then let’s continue searching. ”
Sachiko Anzaki smiled and said, ” Of course, I will continue to be your translator. ”
As soon as Fang Ping left, Bayu Sheng said to Officer Chen: ” During dinner , I received a clue faxed from the Japanese Consulate. The Japanese journalist Kosuke Kurumada provided us with the same clue through the Japanese Consulate. You were handling official business in front, so I didn’t have time to tell you. I didn’t expect Fang Ping to come here so soon. ”
” Who on earth is this Kurumada Kosuke? ”
Bayusheng introduced Kurumada Kosuke and Inoue Jin to Officer Chen. The two’s enthusiasm and love for Chinese culture, as well as their anger and guilt for Japan’s historical injustice to China, have made the cultural and art circles in Jiangjing speak highly of them . Kurumada Kosuke once said that they left their hometown to live in Jiangjing and sing against the Japanese right-wing forces, which is a kind of ” redemption ” complex .
After Officer Chen left, Bayu Sheng continued to ponder. Fang Ping’s arrival provided fresh clues and added rich background to Bayu Sheng’s theory. The key to killing Huang Shiyi and Chu Wenguang was the key subconscious , or a mysterious power, which was guiding him to do that bloody slaughter. It was because he felt that he was controlled by a mysterious power and that the killing was not his own intention, so he felt pain, the same pain as the victim’s brutal dissection process, as a punishment for himself. He tried his best to find the murderer, and it was also out of resistance to the crime committed in his subconscious.
And the key point is that he sleepwalks into the anatomy building every night , which may be an interpretation of his own ” subconscious ” or ” control theory ” , but it requires a psychiatrist to diagnose.
Why did he choose his lover Huang Shiyi? The woman who appeared on the iron frame in the ” hallucination ” was a long-haired woman. Huang Shiyi was a girl with long hair. In addition, when ” they ” came out before , he saw the death of relatives and friends. Huang Shiyi, the long-haired woman close to him, was the first to be killed. She was molested by Ren Quan, and there was no reason not to tell Guanjian. This just strengthened Guanjian’s determination to choose Huang Shiyi as the target: the pure lover was no longer pure.
Perhaps the clever Huang Shiyi sensed something strange about Guanjian, and even Chu Wenguang, who was as close to Guanjian as a brother, sensed something strange about Guanjian. The two of them informed each other, but Guanjian still noticed it. So Chu Wenguang was silenced.
The Jiangnan Medical University where he studied and the First Affiliated Hospital where he did his internship were both ranked high on the ” Top Ten Haunted Places in Jiangjing ” . It was impossible for him not to have read the masterpieces of his childhood friend Ouyang Shan.
Bayusheng stood up and rubbed his swollen eyes: Was he falling into the trap of looking for a seemingly reasonable explanation again? This is a taboo in criminal investigation work. Nine out of ten false cases are caused by this.
At this moment, the task force’s special mobile phone on the table suddenly rang.
Guan Jian was already standing next to the iron frame. Although he had no evidence, he was almost certain that there was a woman on the frame.
Not long ago, during the experiment in the underground passage , the gender of the people on the racks was still unclear. At that time, he only saw white coats. There was also a row of people on the iron racks and many white coats; including himself, like a lamb to be slaughtered.
