It was night, and the lanterns were beginning to light up. Su Yi set up his high power telescope and calmly stood guard on the balcony of the bedroom on the second floor. He was waiting. He had time and patience.
The lights in the apartment across the street were also turned on. The lights fell on the curtains, creating a misty scene. Through the lens of the telescope, Su Yi could only vaguely see a figure moving about in the room. It was a man, probably Blood Amber herself. He kept moving, like a restless psychopath.
In fact, he looked like a lunatic himself. Su Yi smiled wryly in his heart. Was his current behavior considered to be illegal? But in order to find out the truth, he could only do so!
The blood-colored amber's restless walk continued until midnight. Su Yi's eyes were practically blinded by the shadow that was constantly swaying. Finally, the lights in the room went out. Su Yi also yawned and rubbed his eyes.
But after just a short while, something new happened. Suddenly, the sound of a car starting could be heard from the parking lot of the apartment across the street. Su Yi rushed to the balcony and hurriedly adjusted the angle of the binoculars. He saw Bloody Amber, dressed in black, sitting in the car as he left ZTE Garden.
It was already so late, where was he going? Su Yi was extremely puzzled.
After sitting on the balcony for over an hour, another sound came from the other side — the Blood-Amber had returned. He was a thin man with a large cap that covered most of his face. Compared to his previous impatience, his lips were now brimming with a joyful smile. It was obvious that he was in a good mood. After parking the car, he carried something about the size of a shoe box out of the parking lot and walked up the stairs to the second floor. Could it be that the blood-colored amber went out in the middle of the night just to take this box?
Su Yi rubbed his sore eyes and fixed his gaze on the box. The box was orange, and there was a rose pattern on it. It looked like a gift box.
Suddenly, Su Yi's breathing stopped — heavens, there was a finger-sized dark red stain on one corner of the box, like dried blood. When he tried to take a closer look, the blood-colored amber had already entered the room.
Not long after, the lights in the room came on again, followed by the washroom that was connected to the bedroom. Through the lens of the telescope, Su Yi saw a figure standing in the bathroom. Separated by a thin layer of curtain, Su Yi couldn't clearly see what he was doing, and could only vaguely judge that he was probably washing something. After a while, the light in the bathroom went out, and the figure went back into the bedroom and stayed for a while at the window.
At three in the morning, the light in the bedroom opposite finally went out. Su Yi had long since been exhausted of his sleep, and had fallen asleep almost as soon as he touched the pillow.
"Officer Fang, that blood-red amber is really strange!" "I've been observing him for almost half a month now …"
"Oh my god!" Fang Mo spat out the tea in his mouth. "You really went to investigate him?"
"Officer Fang, let's not talk about that now. That blood-colored amber is a dangerous person." Su Yi said anxiously, "He slept soundly during the day, woke up in the evening, and then walked around the house alone. And from time to time he would go out at midnight, not to buy some necessities, but to bring back a small box. There were times when I saw blood on the box. Also, he was washing things in the middle of the night. Officer Fang, this is too weird! I suspect that he is a murderer, and that if we go out in the middle of the night, he will be the perpetrator. He washed his things to clear the evidence! He was very likely to be involved in Qiao Hong's case. Otherwise, how could he have written it as if it were his own case? Moreover, he definitely has something on his mind. Otherwise, why would he hang up the phone hastily when I went to look for him? "
"This —" Fang Mo hesitated for a moment.
"Officer Fang, you have to believe me."
"If it had been half a month ago, I would have thought you were crazy — that Bloody Amber was just a writer. What motive could he have for the murder? "Moreover, Qiao Hong's ex-husband told me that he alone committed the entire crime without any accomplices." Fang Mo changed the topic of his words. "But another thing happened in the past half month. This time, even I can't help but suspect this blood-red amber …"
Just as Fang Mo hung up, a magnetic voice rang beside his ear, "What? What exactly was the matter? "Listen, maybe they have something to do with what I'm looking for."
Fang Mo turned his head and faced a clear handsome face, "Hai, this world is really too strange. Let's not talk about your weird profession and the mysterious object that you are looking for. Just say that the two cases that I've been taking on are really mysterious. Originally, I didn't suspect the blood-colored amber. The person who called me just now was Su Yi, who will be arriving soon. The case of his fiancee's death was solved with the blessing of the blood-colored amber. "
"Oh, the novel you told me about last time?" The man's voice rose slightly. "This is incredible."
"Yes." Fang Mo nodded. "There's also the case of a case that's been hanging in the air for a few years. Three years ago, a homeless beggar was killed in the middle of the night. His body was dumped in a trash can." There were no witnesses, no surveillance, no progress, and only last week the man who had killed the beggar had turned himself in. He was a truck driver, and according to him, he was unlucky that day because the overloaded car had been detained and his wife had divorced him. That day, he borrowed a friend's car to carry the goods late into the night. On the way, he stopped by a small alley and was caught by the beggar. In fact, the beggar only wanted some money, but his pestering attitude made the driver angry. In addition, his life was not going well, so the driver suddenly went crazy and started beating the beggar up. The beggar was also out of luck. He fell headfirst onto the limestone floor, and just like that, he died. The driver jumped in fright, calmed himself down and threw the beggar's body into a nearby trash can. He then escaped from the city overnight … "
"Then how did he suddenly find out and run away?"
"How is this a discovery of the conscience? He's afraid!" Fang Mo smiled wryly as he pulled out a magazine from a nearby bookshelf. "Nuo, there's' The Night Shock 'on page 70 of this magazine." Two weeks ago, the driver bought the magazine at the old bookstall and read it. He was scared out of his wits. After struggling for a week, he came to surrender. The novel is written from the perspective of a little beggar, and it's about him and an older beggar brother — the two of them living together, begging separately one day, and not getting much for the rest of the day. Deep into the night, he returned to the alley where he was staying and saw a person crazily beating up and kicking the beggar brother until he was bleeding all over. The little beggar was stupefied. He was so scared that he shrunk into a corner and began to tremble. He witnessed the entire case with his own eyes. Later, the man left the body of the beggar brother in the trash can and walked away. In his panic, the little beggar took note of the man's appearance and the license plate number of the truck he was driving. "
"Could this novel be related to the murder three years ago?"
"It's not only related to that, it's completely compatible with each other! It was this novel that caused the driver to turn himself in — the time, the place, the process, it was all the same as when he'd committed the crime. Now, when he closed his eyes, it was as if he saw a dirty little beggar hiding in a corner and watching him kill people. Besides, the beggar must have reported the crime and he had his car license plate number, so it was only a matter of time before the police caught him. Rather than hiding in fear, it's better to turn yourself in. "
"The author of this novel …" That person's gaze landed on the signature of "Dusk in the Dark Night". "Blood-red Amber!"
"Yes, it's this blood-red amber!" It is said that this is his first terrifying novel after his' comeback '. Relying on this extremely realistic novel, he has once again risen to prominence in this industry. "
"Interesting. It looks like I should participate in the investigation of the Blood Amber with you."
"Hehe, then you should form an alliance with this Young Noble Su." Fang Mo laughed. "In order to investigate the Blood Amber, he has become a professional detective. He's coming over soon. Do you want me to introduce you? "
The man's nose twitched and he inhaled deeply. That's right, it was this faint scent. He raised his head with a bright smile, "I can't wait."
