DEATH NOTE:NOTE OF DEATH

An hour passed in a flash. To be honest, we were all very nervous during this hour. However, Alex was the most nervous.

"Captain Alex, are you okay? You look a little haggard." Lucy also rushed over after hearing the news. Several of us all stood outside the ward waiting for news that John Doe had woken up.

Alex wanted to take out a cigarette, but he couldn't. Smoking was not allowed in the corridor of the hospital. If I hadn't pulled him out at that time, perhaps none of this would have happened. But now our only reward is that there are definitely two murderers and one of them is capable of costing John Doe his life.

Or we can say that we have been looking for the wrong person from the beginning to the end. The person we are looking for is definitely not John Doe lying in the ward. Although I had such a feeling before, this incident has further confirmed my guess.

When the doctor walked out of the ward, Alex, who was sitting in the hospital corridor, stood up immediately.

"How is he, Doc?"

The doctor smiled and said, "It's no big deal, so don't worry. Just rest well and he will wake up soon."

Alex heaved a sigh of relief when he heard the news. He seemed to lose all his strength in an instant. If Mike hadn't been quick-witted, he would have fallen flat on his face.

"Captain Alex, are you okay?" Mike asked.

"I'm fine. Leave a few people to watch him. John Doe is very emotional right now, so send someone to watch him at all times. There must not be any problems. Do you understand?"

"The rest of you, come back with me to the police station and prepare to start the investigation overnight. We must dig out the real murderer."

"Yes!"

When he returned to the bureau, he happened to meet the director, who simply patted Alex on the shoulder.

"Alex, listen to me, I don't care what means you use, because it is your right, but you must be clear about one thing, that is, the murder case must be solved! This burden actually fell on you, you have to carry it for me, and report to me at any time if you need help. You report, I approve the notes, and I will give you the technology and the people. I don't care about your means, but I want to see the results."

The director has always been like this. Although he always says things very seriously, everyone knows that he has actually taken on a lot for Alex behind the scenes. He is obviously a good guy, but this good guy is a little hard-mouthed but soft-hearted.

"Yes!" Alex nodded, and then shouted: "Everyone who is related to this case, gather in the conference room within five minutes."

Soon, familiar faces sat down in the conference room one after another. Originally, I was a forensic doctor and should not have participated in such a scene, but there was no way. Alex would not let me leave and said that he would feel more at ease with my presence.

But this so-called meeting was just an analysis of the current situation. It also clearly told everyone that there was more than one murderer, and it was even possible that they had arrested the wrong person. The action target was redefined, and John Doe became the focus of the investigation.

Although he is lying in the hospital now, everyone around him will come into the police's sight.

In this meeting, I simply expressed my opinion on this matter, and Alex just nodded. However, one thing is right. We should indeed start with the people around John Doe, because the person in the synesthesia has not appeared yet, and now there is a problem in front of everyone, that is, the person in the synesthesia will make John Doe fight for his life to protect, and the two people are so similar, no one would believe it if you say that these two people have no connection.

After the meeting, Alex and I walked together.

"Ryan, if you have any special ideas, you must tell me, because the arrow has been shot on the string. Three days, today has passed. But don't put too much pressure on yourself." Alex left after he said that. I didn't understand what he meant by his last sentence, but when I saw the direction he went, I knew that many people would not be able to sleep tonight.

Then I returned to the forensic room. The quiet studio still made me feel at ease. My eyes fell on the workbench. The white cloth covering the body had been moved.

Someone came into the studio while I was away and moved the body!

I squatted down and looked at the ground. There were no footprints, but there were signs of mopping. I walked to the door and saw that the mop was wet, which meant someone had definitely touched it.

If only the body had been moved, it means someone was curious and secretly came to see the body. This is my fault. I was careless and left the door unlocked. But if the floor had been mopped, the situation would be different. The person deliberately concealed the traces.

Maybe he thought that since I was a forensic doctor, I wouldn't notice these minor details, but maybe that person overlooked that I am more meticulous than any criminal police officer.

This is strange. Who in the police station would be interested in this case? And they used such a sneaky method. I suddenly had a bad feeling, so I quickly lifted the white cloth.

But in the end, I realized I was worrying too much.

I checked the body again and found no obvious abnormalities. The person who came in did not touch the body.

Did you just take a few photos?

I know a type of person who has psychological problems and is abnormally obsessed with corpses.

Thinking of this, I decided not to report it. As long as it doesn't cause any interference to me, I will just ignore it.

Since they were able to accurately find the forensic laboratory, it couldn't be an outsider, it could be a colleague.

Of course, I couldn't waste time on these things. Although I experienced a lot in the past ten years, it also made me have many misunderstandings. I logged into the police's internal system to find out if there were any such cases in the past. As a result, the night passed quickly.

I don't know how long it took. I woke up to a knock on the door. "Ryan, the provincial investigation team has made a new discovery. It turns out that John Doe has a twin brother. You have to come with me." Alex said.

"Since you've already found out, can't you just go there with a team?"

"Stop talking nonsense, let's go. Everyone knows that you are the person closest to the corpse. I will feel much more at ease with you around."

Alex didn't seem as anxious as he had shown before. Instead, he let us have breakfast and then set off with him.

I ate very quickly, until Alex put down his chopsticks and asked, "Are you full? If you are, let's go meet the suspect."

In order not to alert the enemy, a few of us drove a black business car. Alex threw a few bottles of mineral water, instant noodles, and a blanket into the trunk. His experience can be seen from this action.

According to the time calculation, John Young is now on his way home after breakfast. Alex has asked Mike to watch there in advance. In order not to alert the enemy, Mike will definitely not follow too closely. I also want to see what kind of murderer this is. Could it be the person in the synesthesia?
