Yang Guixi was interviewed by a local TV station. The picture is from a video screenshot.
In a sporting goods store in Bayuquan District, Yingkou City, 54-year-old boss Yang Guixi was thrown down by several men who came to "buy shoes" and put on handcuffs. A few minutes ago, some strange men came to buy shoes, and the opening was 100 pairs. The proprietress Zhang Xia (pseudonym) saw Yang Guixi coming out of the room and was suddenly controlled by several people. Zhang Xia stood by and heard only one word "police".
At that time, Liu He (a pseudonym), the owner of the restaurant next door, saw a group of people gathered in front of the neighbor's house. Soon, a man was pushed out: wearing black gloves on his head and handcuffed behind his back.
Liu He recognized that it was Yang Guixi at a glance, and he usually wore black tights for fitness. He was pushed to the car, Liao B, the license plate number of Dalian.
1 65438+1October1day, the official micro-signal of Dalian Public Security Bureau published an article saying that during the period from 1994 to 1995, Yang Guixi raped and killed four women in Zhuanghe, Dalian, and confessed the criminal facts.
Yang Guixi's arrest caused a shock in the Bayuquan "horse racing" circle. In the past ten years, Yang Guixi has become a minor celebrity in the circle. He sells shoes, runs marathons, works as a coach, accepts apprentices, and even has been interviewed by local TV reporters. Someone said with emotion, "I never thought there was a murderer hiding around me." This is a latent time bomb. "
In Zhuanghe, 30 kilometers away from/kloc-0, most people have no memory of the series of tragedies more than 20 years ago. When one generation grows up, another generation grows old. The rapid development of this city will soon dispel the fears of the 1990s.
Zhuanghe's murder past
165438+1At the beginning of October, the news of Yang Guixi's arrest was broadcast on the evening news column of Liaoning TV. Lao Xu, a 72-year-old Zhuanghe native, and his wife were sitting at home watching TV. They thought each other was "too inhuman" and turned off the TV to sleep.
Lao Xu was not registered immediately. One of the four women who were killed 23 years ago was Xiao Zhong, a girl in his workshop.
Lao Xu works in Dalian Knitting Printing and Dyeing Factory. He is the secretary of the weaving workshop, and Xiao Zhong is a workshop worker. He was 3 1 year old that year, responsible for filling weft and assisting weavers in weaving.
Dalian velvet printing and dyeing factory was the largest factory in Zhuanghe at that time, accommodating more than 2,000 employees. Simply called "cotton mill" by local people, it is a state-owned unit that breaks its head. Among the branches, the weaving branch is the largest, with more than half of employees; In the weaving factory, the weaving workshop is the most important, with nearly 500 workers.
Xiao Zhong belongs to most ordinary people, with average work, average appearance and average figure. It is almost impossible to remember his name if it is not an accident.
On September 2nd of that year, Xiao Zhong worked the night shift, starting at 4pm and ending at 12 in the afternoon. This kind of three-shift work is hard. Many girls in the city don't want to work, so they recruit temporary workers from the countryside. They are "willing to endure hardships and are not lazy".
Xiao Zhong rented a bungalow about 1.5 km from the factory. The family lives together and has a child of eight or nine years old.

The tragedy happened on the way to work. There are no witnesses. People only know that Xiao Zhong's body was found in the sorghum field the next morning, which is the only way to the factory. With dirt roads and no lights, crops grow taller than people.
The news soon spread throughout the factory. Nothing happened in the factory before, and everyone was safe; After Xiao Zhong was killed, he was worried for a time. "If you can't leave the night shift, you won't leave. Find a local cat in the factory until dawn. "
What Lao Xu didn't know was that Xiao Zhong's death was not an isolated case. In August, 1994, 13, 1995, 3 and1,2 1 year-old girl died somewhere.
Citizen Lao Wu remembers that there were many rumors at that time, and it was difficult to distinguish between true and false. Some people speculate that the victim's fiance committed the crime or provoked any enemies outside.
Lao Wu 1978 retired to work in the safeguard section of Zhuanghe Agricultural Machinery Plant. "Everyone knows that someone was killed, but I don't know why. Don't say lesbians at that time, gay men are afraid. "
The whole Zhuanghe River was shrouded in gloom. Lao Wu will repeatedly tell his lover before going out to work that no matter who knocks at the door, he is not allowed to open it; Parents tell their children that no one is allowed to leave after school except their parents. The school starts early and is not allowed to leave school after dark. The traffic team will send people to escort students at the school gate. The radio is also broadcasting from time to time: pay attention to safety at work and school, and try not to travel alone. ...
Where Xiao Zhong's body was found, the sorghum field has now been built into a road, the cotton mill has become a new community, and the public toilets near the crime scene have also been demolished. The Beijing News
Twenty-three years later, Dalian Daily published the news that the serial murder suspect Yang Guixi was arrested. Lao Xu pointed to "Zhong Mou, 3 1 year old" in the newspaper and kept repeating: "This is it, this is it, our workshop."
After reading the suspect's information, the wife on the side patted her leg: "God, the one on TV is thin and tall, selling sporting goods and running marathons in Bayuquan."
Bayuquan longge
Zhang Xia used to be a worker in Zhuanghe Cotton Mill. He worked three shifts and was busy. He often didn't see his boyfriend.
Her boyfriend is Yang Guixi.
Zhang Xia recalled that she and Yang Guixi met at 1994, and they got together because they both like fitness.
Zhang Xia said that Yang Guixi had a marriage before and was sentenced. As far as she knows, 1987 she is in her hometown of Baicheng, Jilin, and Yang Guixi was jailed for robbery. She was released on medical parole 199 1 year. But she "just asked him about his past, as long as he lived well in the future."
According to the police report, from 1994 to 1995, Yang Guixi committed crimes frequently. Zhang Xia said that she didn't find anything unusual about Yang Guixi. She recalled that during that time, she worked in a cotton mill, and Yang Guixi ran around Zhuanghe selling goods, red beans and apples, and didn't make much money.
Yang Guixi's younger brother Yang Guichang (a pseudonym) told the Beijing News reporter that he couldn't remember it for more than nine years. Yang Guixi left home secretly, and no one knows where he went. The Yang family has nine brothers and sisters, and Yang Guixi is the fourth. For the next twenty years, he had no contact with his family.
Zhang Xia said that in 1996, her factory was "yellow" and she left Zhuanghe with Yang Guixi to work in Haicheng and other places. In 2004, the home of CBA Liaoning team was located in Bayuquan, and Yang Guixi liked basketball. They went to Bayuquan to watch the game, and then stayed there.
From the map, Liaodong Peninsula pierced the Yellow Sea and Bohai Sea like a sword, while Yingkou and Zhuanghe are located on the blades at both ends, one east and one west, facing the sea respectively.
There is no train from Zhuanghe to Yingkou Bayuquan, only a bus. At seven o'clock every morning, the blue bus departs from Bayuquan, facing the sun to the east, and travels along Panshan Highway for about 130 km to Zhuanghe. At one o'clock in the afternoon, I turned back from Zhuanghe, walked west, still facing the sun, and panted back to Bayuquan.
In Bayuquan, it is not unusual for foreigners like Yang Guixi. Originally a small fishing village, 1984 became the jurisdiction of Yingkou city, and 1992 established a national economic and technological development zone. Young port cities are developing rapidly, and strangers are taking root in new buildings. According to local estimates, in Bayuquan, the total number of foreigners even exceeds that of locals.
In order to make a living, Yang Guixi and Zhang Xia sold tickets for CBA, and also engaged in melon seeds and seafood business until May 20 16, when they had their own shops and sold sporting goods.

The shop is the bottom business of the community, not far from Bayuquan Century Square, facing the street and sandwiched between shops, vegetable shops and pharmacies. The annual rent 1.3 million, and the space of 65.5 square meters is divided into several blocks, which are used as shops, bedrooms and kitchens respectively.
After Yang Guixi was arrested, people naturally remembered the "silver murder case" two years ago: serial murder, cruel means, the suspect was at large for more than 20 years, and the police finally found the suspect by relying on scientific and technological strength. Some media even referred to the Yang Guixi case as "Dalian version of the' silver case'". However, unlike the secret life of the suspect Gao in the "Silver Case", Yang Guixi is much more high-profile.
People know little about his past. Everyone who knows him well knows that he is from Jilin, and more people don't even know his real name. But when it comes to "Brother Long", almost everyone you meet in Century Square knows it.
Zhang Xia recalled that when he first arrived in Bayuquan, Yang Guixi had long hair, a thin figure and developed chest muscles. Yang thinks he looks like Bruce Lee, so he calls himself "Bruce Lee". Over time, people began to call him "Brother Long".
He likes long-distance running, participated in marathon races in Harbin, Beijing, Qinhuangdao, Panjin and other places, and posted certificates and photos online.
On the Internet, you can also find some information about Yang Guixi. For example, in 2004, the 5000m men's team won the first place in the Fourth National Games of Haicheng, and the Panjin Marathon won the first place in 2065, with 438+05. His half-time score was 1 hour, 45 minutes and 5 1 second.
On 20 15, Yang Guixi announced the establishment of a training class in QQ space, calling himself head coach Bruce Lee. The training content includes basketball, long-distance running, martial arts, Sanda, women's self-defense and so on.
In the same year, he became active on social media, posting several news items almost every day, including marathon notices, running photos and so on. On social media, his name is Bruce Lee, head coach, national first-class social sports instructor, marathon enthusiast and organizer of Bayuquan long-distance running club.
Every morning at six o'clock, Yang Guixi will appear in Century Square, and the bright green sportswear is particularly conspicuous in the crowd. He has five or six players, and everyone often trains together. They will run around the square with a red flag that says "Brother Long". Yang Guixi whistled while running, and sometimes raised his mobile phone and took a small video and sent it to a circle of friends.
On June 1 day, 2065438, before the opening of Bayuquan International Marathon, Yang Guixi also appeared in the news program of local TV station, introducing him as "a national first-class coach, a professional middle-distance runner, and settled in Bayuquan after retiring in 2004". He was interviewed as a marathon enthusiast and running technical coach: "No matter whether I run or not in the future, I will teach all the skills to everyone without reservation. It is not that I want to make great achievements and let them have the marathon spirit, surpass themselves, improve themselves and exert their potential. This is what my coach should do. "
On June 3rd, on the day of the marathon, Yang Guixi was interviewed by reporters and sent a group photo on the Weibo.
Weird "two-faced man"
In Liaoning in early winter, ginkgo trees fell gold. Every night, in the corner of Bayuquan Century Square, scattered citizens are dancing in the square dance, kicking shuttlecock and practicing Tai Ji Chuan. The most conspicuous are four "walking" teams, which are spontaneously organized "happy walking" activities. There were more than 200 people in each team. 19, the music began, and thousands of people began to March and occupy rhythmically.
Yang Guixi was also a member of the group before his arrest. He belongs to the "Outdoor Walking Red Team". In the impression of his teammates, he is enthusiastic, often helping to organize team gatherings and occasionally playing stereos.
Yang Guixi took a group photo with his teammates running together, and Yang Xichang was the fourth from the left. The picture is from Yang Guixi, Weibo.
Teammate Wang Wei (pseudonym) said that Yang Guixi was active in the square, mainly selling shoes. At first, he would take out his sneakers before walking and put them away when everyone started walking. Later, business gradually improved. He turned "stall" into "selling". He came down several times a day and began to hand out a stack of business cards. Yang Guixi has a high voice and a glib tongue. "My shoes are good, comfortable and not expensive." Many people in the square bought shoes from him.
"Whoever buys shoes also buys them. His wife has a heart attack and is ill all day. It's pathetic Everyone is busy. " Wang Wei said. The pair of blue sneakers he wore was bought from Yang Guixi for 200 yuan and has been worn for two years.
A runner who is familiar with Yang Guixi said that Yang Guixi has a flamboyant personality and is eager to show himself, hoping to get everyone's attention. He likes to brag about how many competitions he has participated in, how many apprentices he has brought and how many kilometers he runs every day. After the news of his arrest came, he speculated that "he may be hiding his inner emptiness in this way."
Others think that Yang Guixi is enthusiastic and enthusiastic. Sometimes, when Yang Guixi saw someone running in the square, he took the initiative to "teach skills", such as how to protect his knees, how to adjust his breathing, and what posture to run in so as not to get tired.
But in Zhang Xia's eyes, Yang Guixi has two faces. I am enthusiastic about outsiders and look optimistic and cheerful, but when I get home, I expose my eccentric side.
Zhang Xia said that Yang Guixi was born in 1964, nine years older than himself. I thought an older husband would hurt people, but "he never hurts me." Yang Guixi has a bad temper and loves to get angry. "He will be angry for small things. Sometimes he is not allowed to talk when eating, and sometimes he immediately turns his face if he doesn't like to eat, which is inexplicable. "
Zhang Xia's greatest and most beautiful idea of married life is that two people get off work together, cook together, wash dishes together, walk together and chat together, but Yang Guixi won't do it with her.
"He and I are not like a family. We don't have that feeling. He was very enthusiastic about others outside, but when he got home, he changed his face to me. "
Liu He, the owner of the restaurant next door, saw Zhang Xia sitting beside Little Square at the back of the room crying.

Liu He has also seen Yang Guixi in a bad temper. "Once he took a 15-year-old child to training. Because the child remembered the shoelaces wrong, he stood there for a long time. " Liu He said, "Sometimes after primary school, children play in the community and the noise is loud, so he shouts' Get out' to them."
In Liu He's eyes, Yang Guixi likes to strike up a conversation with the opposite sex in public and talk about women's physiological period. Once, a girl in her twenties complained while chatting with Liu He's wife. She met Yang Guixi on the road, and the other person was frivolous: "You are very beautiful, sis." Liu He said that Yang Guixi is 54 years old, older than the girl's father.
The "cold case" has been solved
The scope of the city is constantly expanding, the new real estate market is constantly opening up, and the public security bureau and the government have moved to new locations. The cotton mill where the murdered female worker Xiao Zhong worked was also razed to the ground. The newly-built residential area is called Oriental Waterfront, with European roofs and bright windows.
23 years is the time when a generation grows old. The zhuanghe city Public Security Bureau handled the case one after another, and many people were transferred or even retired; The Interpol Brigade has also changed five captains, but within the Public Security Bureau, this "cold case" has been passed around like a baton, and the police have never given up their efforts to detect it.
Lao Xu recalled that last spring, the police went to the family building of the cotton mill to find him, and learned about the situation in that year. The other party said, "(The case) has a clue now."
According to an article published by Dalian police,1August 3, 994, after the first case occurred, the police found a deformed fingerprint at the scene, which was left by the suspect. Subsequently, the police relied on this fingerprint for investigation and visit, and compared more than 5,000 people, but no suspicious traces were found.
The following year, 18-year-old hotel waiter, 3/kloc-0-year-old textile worker Zhong Mou and 20-year-old college student were raped and killed one after another. According to the analysis of criminal suspects' targets, means and characteristics, and the inspection of relevant physical evidence, the police concluded that four cases were committed by the same criminal suspect. However, due to the limited clues to identify and expose suspects, the case has never broken through.
In the special action of centralized comparison of fingerprint murders organized by the Ministry of Public Security, the police of the Criminal Investigation Detachment of the Municipal Public Security Bureau rechecked and corrected the deformed fingerprints extracted from Zhuanghe murder scene 23 years ago, and screened them nationwide. On October 8th, 65438/KLOC-0, an important clue was obtained: Yang, the owner of a sporting goods store in Bayuquan District, Yingkou City, was suspected of committing a major crime. After Yang arrived at the case, the police extracted Yang's biological evidence and confirmed that he was the suspect of that year.
During the interrogation, Yang initially pleaded not guilty, but finally confessed to the fact that 1993 raped and killed four women in succession during his coming to work in zhuanghe city from Baicheng City, Jilin Province.
Zhang Xia said that after 24 years together, they never got a license. "At first, he said that his ID card had expired and he had never returned to his hometown."
After Yang Guixi was arrested, it was difficult for Zhang Xia to support the store by herself, so she printed "Clearance Sale" on octo paper and stuck it on the glass at the door.
Zhang Xiazhong returned to the rental house to clean up the garbage, and the store will be subletted the next day. In less than a month, she lost ten kilograms.
Not long ago, Zhang Xia received a phone call from Yang Guixi. She doesn't talk much, but her voice is calm. She told her, "Let's sell the store." Friends of Yang's hiking team also received his phone call and said, "Take care of good sister-in-law, Brother Long is broken." .
In Bayuquan Century Square, the sound of the trekking team sounded at seven o'clock in the evening as usual, and the sports shoes that everyone bought from Yang Guixi were looming in the crowd.
Beginning of winter, the wind poured into the clothes. There are also people in the WeChat group who send messages related to Yang Guixi. The link opens, and he identified the video of the scene. Yang Guixi was wearing tight sweatpants before he was taken away, frowning and pointing to the cornfield on the side of the road. ...
