I started reading a new book this week, the title of which is Psychological Crime. This is a mystery novel, borrowed from his colleagues who run with him. The author of this book is Remy.
The background of the novel is the campus, where college students die one after another inexplicably, the police can't find the murderer, and people are in panic on campus.
I met the fifth victim, probably finished reading half a book, and suspected several murderers, but all of them were ruled out.
The first victim went to the bathroom after lights out in the dormitory. In the north, public bathrooms, showers and toilets are arranged on the left and right. When he was found, he had spent the night in the toilet. The murderer used hemp rope to get out of the toilet pit on his back, crossed the fence about 1.4 meters, dragged the top to the wall and strangled him.
The second victim was a beautiful graduate student. In the evening, she went to the printing room on the top floor of the executive building to copy a lot of materials for the instructor to be transferred. The next day, she was found. Her body appeared on the platform on the third floor. She fell from the twentieth floor to the third floor and died.
The third victim and the fourth victim were a couple making out at the football field. It was snowing that day, 10: 30, and they were still reluctant to go after the lights went out in the dormitory. Finally, they decided to watch an all-night movie. But at this time, the girl saw a figure jumping up from behind the boy, holding a murder weapon and hitting the boy, and the boy was unconscious on the ground. The murderer grabbed the girl, drugged her and carried her on his shoulder. Later, the murderer came to the boy and found that the boy was missing. In order to avoid revealing his identity, he decided to find the boy. Following the footsteps in the snow, the murderer saw a figure walking on the wall of the playground. He ran quickly, but fell down on the way. As a result, I saw that the boy was hit by the ice on the fence, stabbed his back and spine, and froze. The girl was found naked and tied to the flagpole in the playground. No signs of sexual assault.
The fifth victim is Chen from the Department of Economics. Her death is even more bizarre. On the campus where four people died, when people fell into panic, the school's New Year's Eve party and community activities were still not over. She took part in a drama of a drama club, playing the heroine and a princess. The script is about an ordinary person falling in love with her. In order to make her exchange souls with the devil, become a national hero and get engaged to the princess, when he got his wish, the devil invaded his body and cut off the princess's head with an axe in order to be reborn. In the script, a plastic man was beheaded. Who knows that when it was actually staged, the murderer pretended to be the hero. He knocked Chen out, cut off the real person's head in front of 3000 audiences according to the script, and then ran away.
The author is good at rendering the atmosphere. I was reading alone in a quiet room, and my inner fear swelled. If I still read this book on the university campus, I estimate that I will have a good fear when I walk on the playground, study in the library and even go to the toilet at night.
In the process of reading, I also suspect that several people are murderers. One is Fang Mu, the first hero of this book. The victims in the first case, the second case and even the fifth case were all related to him. Sometimes he can even feel the murderer's intention keenly, as if he were the murderer. He himself began to doubt whether he was schizophrenic or sleepwalking. He killed all those who died at night. Later, he even tied himself to the bed to sleep to rule out suspicion.
The second murderer I suspect is Wu Han, Fang Mu's dormitory roommate. He is a student cadre on duty with the supervisor. He is strong, can strangle people and walk around at will. However, with the death of the fifth victim, the figure of the murderer was exposed, which ruled out Wu Han's suspicion.
At present, the suspected Wang Jian was originally a student of the base class. Later, his exam results were not good enough and he was eliminated by the primary base class, but he still lived in the dormitory of the base class. The base class is a group of people who only care about learning and have no human feelings. Later, he moved out and lived in the bed of the first victim. Later, more and more people died, and students in the city no longer lived in six-person dormitories. He is eccentric and unsociable, so he is one of the suspects, but so far there is no evidence to prove that he is the murderer.
Maybe if I keep watching, I will suspect that more people are murderers. I think this may be the charm of the success of mystery novels. It is necessary to solve the case, but it is not easy to know who the murderer is. It is also necessary to exaggerate the atmosphere, make readers afraid and have the courage to continue reading and explore the truth.
