Why did Alex take such a big risk to let Dong die?

Dong freezes in place, and then he falls straight into Alex's arms.

Alex looks at Dong and is very glad that he survives at the end.

Dong stares at Alex, his mouth moving, and it seems that he wants to say something. Alex thinks for a while, and then put his ear close to Dong's mouth.

"You are... this... damn... devil!"

Hearing Dong say this, Alex is very confused and wants to ask him why he says that? But when Alex looks up, he sees that Dong has already no sound.

Alex frowns, ignoring the pain in his body. He truly doesn't understand what Dong meant by the last words. He is a devil, but Dong was not?

They are the same, and even though he had never killed anyone. Everything was done by the original owner.

Dong slowly slips from Alex's arms, and when he slid to the ground, a notebook falls out of Dong's arms.

Alex couldn't help shaking in his heart, and when he looks closely, it is different from his own. He breathes a sigh of relief. He now really has a fear of things like notebooks.

Then he thinks of what Dong said before he died. He looks at the diary, then he leans hard, let himself fall to the ground, and picks up the diary with his bound hands.

After a quick look, he flicks the diary hard and sees that the diary fall from the second floor. He doesn't see where it falls exactly, but the police shouldn't find it in this direction.

After all this, he is completely relieved. After a while, the police runs up. The first one to come up is Yang. He first reaches out and touches Dong's neck.

Then he looks at Alex and asks,

"How are you?"

"How am I? Officer Yang, I was hit several times by the hammer, what else can I feel? Of course it hurts."

Yang nods,

"It seems that you are not seriously injured, and you are still in the mood to joke. Why did you come here? tell me. "

Alex gets stunned for a moment, looks at him and says,

"Officer Yang, I know you are eager to solve the case, but at least send me to the hospital first? Can I talk to you after the doctor finishes the treatment?"

Because his life is not in danger now, Yang does not call an ambulance, but takes him to the hospital in a police car. On the way, Yang indeed does not ask him about the case again.

There is no conversation all the way to the hospital. After the examination, the sternum is slightly fractured and it would be fine after nursing. The injury on the thigh is not serious either. It is a muscle injury, so he needs to sit in a wheelchair first and wait until it is almost healed before walking.

Alex gets a little relieved. Fortunately, the police came in time. If it was a little later, he might have died.

Seeing Yang standing at the door, he waves his hand and motions him to come in.

Yang comes in and asks, "What's the matter?"

Alex looks at him and smiles,

"Thank you, if it weren't because of you, the consequences would be much more serious. Don't you want to know why I went there? I can tell you now, just consider it as helping you."

Yang turns around and calls a police officer, Alex asks, "Where is Officer Chen? He didn't come here?"

"Leader Chen is busy." Yang explains.

After getting ready, Yang begins to ask,

"Tell me, why did you go there?"

Alex has already thought about how to answer, but when the words come to his lips, he swallows them back. He suddenly feels that something was wrong, but he just couldn't remember what was wrong exactly.

He frowns and recalls, and in his mind he recalls what Dong said to him before he died.

Seeing that Alex suddenly doesn't speak, Yang frowns and shouts,

"I'm asking you a question, why did you go there?"

Alex looks up instantly, glances at him coldly, and says in a gloomy tone,

"Wait a minute."

The reason why Alex suddenly freezes is that he finds a loophole in his behavior. He has thought about how to deal with the police, but ignored himself.

Just as Yang asked, why did he go there?

In his cognition, he went there to implement his plan. Now it is obvious that the plan has succeeded and Dong is dead.

But there is a behavioral loophole here. If he just wanted Dong to die, why did he spend so much energy? Why did he take such a big risk?

He has many ways, in fact. The most direct one is to tell the police and let the police bring him to justice directly. This is more reasonable and simpler, and there is no risk.

Moreover, Dong is different from Zhen who knew about his diary, so in order not to be exposed, Zhen must die, but Dong knew nothing. Even if Dong is captured alive, it has nothing to do with Alex.

He can't figure out why he did this?

He looks up at Yang, knowing that now is not the time to think about these things.

"Okay, ask your questions."

Yang frowns, "What were you thinking about just now?"

"Well, maybe because of the injury or the stimulation between life and death, I recovered some memories."

Yang pauses, and the thing he was most worried about before still happens. On the way here, he thought that Alex might use the amnesia to make a fuss, and now it seems that his guess is right.

In this way, Alex's amnesia is likely to be fake. He may have thought of everything a long time ago, and the amnesia may be for this moment.

If the facts are really like this, he knows that he might not be able to get anything out of it. He looks at Alex solemnly and says,

"What memories?"

"Memories from a long time ago, about family life, and have nothing to do with this case."

Yang nods. He actually doesn't know whether what Alex said is true or false, so he could only continue to ask, "Why did you go there?"

Alex temporarily puts aside his doubts and says according to the words he has prepared before,

"Investigation, didn't I tell you my guess when you came here before? You didn't give me a definite answer at that time, but I was concerned about it.

After you left, I started searching for recent events and noticed the recent cases of disappearances in Beijing City.

I thought, maybe I found something that made Dong want to kill me, this speculation is very reasonable."

Yang frowns and asks,

"Why didn't you call the police? Instead, you chose to investigate by yourself? Aren't you afraid? In your eyes, Dong is a serial killer."

Alex looks at him,

"Officer Yang, it's not that I haven't thought about calling the police, but I have lost my memory. Where is the evidence? Where is the discovery? Nothing. I can only rely on my own guesses. If I call the police in this situation, will you accept it?"

"No."

This sentence is not said by Yang, but by Chen who is standing at the door. He walks in and motions to Yang to come. Yang nods, and Chen asks,

"Is it worth taking such a big risk just for this simple guess?"

Alex shakes his head and replies,

"No, he is a serial killer, how can I have such courage? But what happened later forced me to do it.

After I was discharged from the hospital, Dong would sit in the fast food restaurant opposite my store at noon every day. This discovery made me feel like a thorn in my throat, and it also made me more certain that my guess was right.

I knew he was staring at me, and maybe he would kill me when the time comes, but I couldn't call the police because he was just going to eat opposite my store.

I wanted to protect myself. Since calling the police was probably useless, what else could I do? I could only find my previous discovery, or I could remember something?

The time to recover memory was uncertain. Maybe Dong would come before I recover my memory, so I could only choose to investigate alone."

"How did you find that place?" Chen asked again.

"Guess, I asked my mother about my daily life trajectory, two points and one line, occasionally go back to my parents' home, no other place to go.

So where did I find the clues? Either at home, in the store, or on the road, and there are surveillance cameras at home and in the store, so the probability of these two places is very small, the biggest possibility is on the road.

Dong was a criminal, and he certainly couldn't let himself be photographed by surveillance. Thus, it could only be a place without surveillance, I looked at the map and found that there is no surveillance there.

With the idea of ​​​​investigating, I wanted to take a look.

But I knew Dong was watching me, and I had no chance to go. It happened to be foggy today with low visibility. Then I knew this was an awesome opportunity for me, so I went there as fast as I could."

Chen nods, as if he accepts all Alex's statements, "What happened after that?"
