Lin Chen's reaction was somewhat out of Miao Yunfei's expectations. She said,""Yes, Qi Hongyuan. Why? Do you know him?”
" I have a high school classmate called Qi Hongyuan," Lin Chen said." We're pretty close. I'm not sure if it's the same person."”
"Oh?" Miao Yunfei's interest was piqued. Coincidentally, she had Qi Hongyuan's photo on her phone, so she showed it to Lin Chen.
Lin Chen looked at the man in the photo who was sitting on the iron chair with his hands handcuffed. His pupils constricted slightly. It was really his high school classmate, Qi Hongyuan.
After being reborn into this parallel world, Lin Chen's relatives and friends did not change much. In that world, Lin Chen and Qi Hongyuan were high school classmates, and so were the memories in this world.
"Impossible, how could he be a murderer?”Lin Chen frowned and stared at the person on the screen.
In high school, Lin Chen had a few good friends. Qi Hongyuan was one of them. Back then, Qi Hongyuan's family was the best among his playmates. His parents were businessmen and had a lot of pocket money. Qi Hongyuan often invited Lin Chen and the others to eat together.
"Why can't he? Just because you know him?" Miao Yunfei said disdainfully.
It had been so many days since the bus stop serial murder case. The murderer had brutally killed four victims in a row. The social impact of this incident was even more serious than the dismembered body case in Donglin University's female dormitory 311.
The task force led by Miao Yunfei had worked hard for so many days and finally caught the murderer, Qi Hongyuan. Now that Lin Chen said that Qi Hongyuan was not the murderer, Miao Yunfei was naturally unhappy.
"We were high school classmates. At that time, he was timid and afraid of things. He didn't even dare to fight with others. How could he create so many murders?”Lin Chen shook his head in disbelief. This was not the high school classmate he remembered.
"People change. Just because you were timid in high school doesn't mean you'll be timid forever. Besides, the murderer, Qi Hongyuan, is mentally ill.”Miao Yunfei pointed at her own head, indicating that Qi Hongyuan was mentally ill.
Lin Chen was silent for a few seconds. He raised his head and asked Miao Yunfei,"Where is Qi Hongyuan now?"
"What?"
"I want to see him!"
……
A few minutes later, Lin Chen got into the security car that Miao Yunfei drove. After the car started, Lin Chen asked Miao Yunfei,"Why are you so sure that Qi Hongyuan is the murderer?”
Miao Yunfei then told Lin Chen about the four bus stop serial murders and how the victims were hung in the bus stop.
After saying this, Miao Yunfei mumbled,"I wanted to ask you for help before, but you weren't even interested in listening. Now, you're so interested?”
Lin Chen ignored Miao Yunfei's sarcasm. After learning about the bus stop serial murders, he asked the public security why they were so sure that Qi Hongyuan was the murderer.
With Miao Yunfei's narration, Lin Chen finally understood what had happened.
After the case happened, the task force held many meetings and many departments assisted in the investigation.
Because the bus stop was in the suburbs, the coverage of the cameras was not comprehensive. When the security officers checked the surveillance video of the crime scene, they found a suspicious person.
In the second murder case, near the station where the victim was killed, the surveillance camera at the intersection captured a figure belonging to a man.
The figure was about 172cm tall and wore a cap that covered his face. He was wearing a black coat and had a strong physique. According to his estimation, he should weigh about 180 pounds.
This figure had appeared on a nearby camera after the deceased's death.
The surveillance cameras near the bus stop where the third and fourth victims died also captured the man's figure.
This man appeared near the crime scenes. His clothes were a little strange at night. He appeared near all three crime scenes. From this, this man was very suspicious. It could even be said that he was the murderer.
The security officers investigated the suspicious man in the cap according to the surveillance cameras while screening the nearby residents with a history of mental illness.
After many days of hard work and investigation, there was finally some progress.
In the hospital's electronic medical record vault, the public security department had locked onto a few suspects and went to the homes of these suspects for interrogation and investigation.
A few mentally ill suspects were eliminated one after another. Finally, a mentally ill patient named Qi Hongyuan appeared in the public security's field of vision and was locked in.
Qi Hongyuan was suffering from intermittent persecutory delusions. This was a chronic illness that was mainly caused by systematic and organized delusions.
The estimated prevalent rate was about 0.03%, and there was no gender difference in the occurrence rate between men and women. Most of them were in the middle or late adult stage.
People with persecutory paranoia believe that they are being persecuted, deceived, stalked, poisoned, slandered, or schemed against. The patient often becomes extremely cautious and defensive.
The security officers learned about Qi Hongyuan's family situation. His family was originally a very wealthy family, but a few years ago, his parents died in an accident.
Qi Hongyuan was greatly affected by his parents 'death in a car accident. From then on, he would occasionally be clear-headed, and at other times, he would feel that the people around him wanted to kill him and harm him.
Ever since Qi Hongyuan's parents had gotten into trouble, his aunt had been looking after him. She had rented a cheap apartment for him and would send him meals once a day.
According to Qi Hongyuan's neighbors, they said that Qi Hongyuan always felt that someone was trying to kill him. At night, he would often shout alone in his house, saying things like," Don't kill me, I'm going to kill you."
He would even hold a knife and walk vigilantly in the corridor. The neighbors in that building would often be frightened by his strange actions.
