The serial murder case was quickly solved, uncovering twelve female corpses and rescuing fifteen trapped individuals. Witnesses, testimonies, and evidence formed a complete and irrefutable chain, ready to be submitted to the prosecutor's office for a future court date.
The night in Hailin City remained vibrant, casting colorful reflections on the glass of the second-floor conference room. The lights were off, and Shen Jie sat alone at one end of the conference table, holding a remote control. The glow from the screen illuminated his face, creating a hazy atmosphere.
Video 1: Men's Restroom.
A group of immature male high school students, smoking and holding their phones, aimed their cameras at Fang Dersee, who was surrounded by the crowd. Observing their expressions and actions made it clear that the leader of these delinquents was the one with dyed red hair and earrings.
"Isn't he so tough? Huh? Playing the hero to save the beauty?"
"That guy? A hero? More like a toad trying to eat swan meat."
"Nonsense, he's just a chicken."
"A toad eating chicken? Ha! I'll make him eat shit! Strip him down and throw him in the pit!"
The delinquents closed in on Fang Dersee. Despite his desperate resistance, he couldn't withstand the sudden blow from a red brick to the back of his head. He lost consciousness and was dragged to the pit.
Video 2: Abandoned Construction Site.
Several girls, cigarettes in hand and heavy makeup on their faces, cursed as they kicked Pan Lang, who was curled up on the ground.
"How dare you flirt with my boyfriend? You must want it bad, huh?"
"Her mom's a whore; how clean can she be? Maybe they both work together!"
One girl pressed a burning cigarette butt onto Pan Lang's arm. Pan Lang gritted her teeth in silence until another girl grabbed her messy hair and lit the ends with a lighter. Pan Lang screamed in terror as several girls laughed. At the end of the video, the red-haired leader appeared on screen.
Video 3: Hotel Room.
In a cheap-looking hotel room, Fang Dersee and Pan Lang were naked, each with their wrists bound behind them. They knelt facing each other on the bed while men and women surrounded them. One person held Fang Dersee's head down while another did the same to Pan Lang, forcing their faces together. Someone straightened Pan Lang's body flat on the bed while grabbing Fang Dersee by the back of his neck and pushing him onto Pan Lang. Cheers erupted as subtitles appeared: "A bitch and a dog together forever."
Video 4: Interrogation Room.
Fan Lingguang had his hands locked to the interrogation chair, his shiny bald head reflecting under the lights like a ping pong ball.
"I just happened to pass by the school gate and saw Fang Dersee talking to a girl. Since he had been out of school for almost a year, we guessed he might have gotten a girlfriend and thought about asking him to introduce some high school girls for fun. As I got closer, I noticed that girl was exceptionally beautiful, which sparked my interest. Coincidentally, Pan Nianzhen's car stopped nearby; after chatting for a bit, I found out that girl was her daughter named Pan Lang. I took note of it. One night when I was drunk, I called Pan Nianzhen to bring Pan Lang over for some fun. At first, she refused but I tricked her into thinking I would introduce her to some big bosses; she agreed..."
"Fang Dersee? He didn't come down; I told him to wait outside the hall. Not long after, Pan Nianzhen brought Pan Lang down. She glanced around and realized I had lied to her over the phone but since she was already there, she knew she couldn't take her daughter away without having some fun first. So she went up to wait while leaving Pan Lang for my friends. We played some tricks but it wasn't for nothing; we gave Pan Nianzhen money—ten thousand yuan—as if buying her daughter's first night. She happily accepted it but unexpectedly when she was bathing her daughter, Pan Lang ran out. We realized we had to chase after her; I went up to ask Fang Dersee but he wouldn’t say anything. That was when he first tried to act tough with me—I broke his nose with one punch!"
"The pressure was mounting since so many had died; you guys must have been taking it seriously. So I thought about finding a scapegoat—Fang Dersee. While you focused your attention on him, I would kill him off so you wouldn't find anyone else and let this case become unsolved over time. The method was simple: force Fang Dersee to do something inappropriate; once it happened while the body was still warm, I'd inject something into it."
A WeChat screenshot from Pan Lang's perspective showed her note for Fang Dersee labeled "Comrade," playing voice messages from both sides.
"It's confirmed—ectopic pregnancy; surgery is needed—but I'm too lazy for that now. Why don't we just die together? After all, you're wanted nationwide; showing up means you'll be caught."
"Okay."
"Hmm—dying like this feels a bit unfair. Should we take someone with us? Do you have anyone in mind that you want to kill? I want to take that bitch with me."
"Alright, I'll take Fan Lingguang."
"Damn, that bitch blocked me again. She's afraid I'll ask her for money. Even the old madams in ancient times knew to leave some savings. Damn it, she sold me out and won't even cover my meal!"
"Do you have any ideas? I'm listening to you."
"Let me think..."
