On Thursday, October 1, 2020, it was only three days before Chang'an fell into the water. She carried her suitcase and walked out of the school gates.

She picked up her mobile phone, briefly exchanged a few words with her mother, and told her by the way that she would go back today. Of course, she didn't tell Chang Mei about her falling into the water, anyway, it was not a big deal, and saying it only only increased Chang Mei's worries.

The holiday time is always pleasant, and she walked into the N city bus station humming a little song.

On the other side, City Y.

"Forensic Doctor Zhao, what did you find?" The person who opened his mouth to ask was named Ji Li, the captain of the Y City Criminal Investigation Team, and he frowned, with a hint of urgency in his expression.

"The deceased, male, aged 22, was subjected to various degrees of injuries before his death, including stab wounds, flogging wounds, burns from dripping wax, and castration of his lower body, but it was not lethal.

There is a kind of ...... in this modus operandi Sexual, sadistic connotations, but this particular fetish is generally common in men and women.

According to the autopsy, KCN was detected in the residue in the victim's stomach, which was also the direct cause of the victim's death. Zhao Jian lowered his head, recorded the conclusions he had reached in the report, and analyzed the situation of the deceased with Ji Li concisely and clearly.

"This is already the second case, but there are very few clues left at the scene, except for knowing the identities of the two deceased, nothing else is known......" Ji Li sighed, his eyebrows tightened.

Zhao Jian gently closed the autopsy report and glanced at the corpse with a faint expression, "I have a friend named Gu Li, perhaps, he can help." ”

Ji Li Yixi: "Really?"

"Well, he's an expert on that. Zhao Jian nodded, with a bit of pride in his tone, I didn't know, I thought he was boasting.

"Then please ask Forensic Doctor Zhao to help contact him to see if he is willing to help. Ji Li politely asked for advice.

"Good. ”

Ji Li smiled gratefully.

Subsequently, Zhao Jian dialed Gu Li's phone.

"I have a tough case here, and I need your help. Zhao Jian didn't go around the bush and went straight to the point.

"You say. Gu Li replied seriously, he knew Zhao Jian, if it wasn't for the difficulties, he wouldn't easily call him to help.

"There were two murders in succession at H University, both of whom were music students at H University, and their bodies were found in the Cultural Hall.

Both died in the same way, and the cause of death was overdose of KCN. The time of death of the victims was at midnight, and it is reported that on the night of the crime, the melody of the symphony of fate was still wafting on the campus...... The point is that the murderer did not leave any traces of the crime when he committed the crime, there were no eyewitnesses, and there were few clues, so there was no way to find out......"

"Ahh ”

Before Zhao Jian could finish his words, he was interrupted by a sneeze from Gu Li, and then he was heard to say, "Okay, I know, I will come to Y City as soon as possible." ”

"Good. Zhao Jian was overjoyed, but also expressed his worries, because he obviously heard Gu Li sneezing, so he asked, "Got a cold?"

"Well, sort of. When Gu Li replied, he still had a little nasal voice.

Zhao Jian's face was worried: "Is your body okay?"

Gu Li groaned: "I'm so weak that I can't help it?"

"You rarely get sick, the last time you had a cold, I remember it was when you were in college, and you had a fever when you got sick. So, are you sure you can come to City Y?"

“......”

Gu Li was silent.

Zhao Jian spoke again: "I have a case to be busy, and I can't leave for a while, I'll let someone pick you up." ”

"No, I'll just come by myself. Gu Li paused for a few seconds and then continued, "Help me inform Lin Changan and let her be my assistant." ”

"I'm still busy with the autopsy, I really don't have time, I'll give you the phone, you can say it yourself. My colleague over there is already urging me, if there is anything, I'll talk about it when you arrive. Also, remember to take your medicine. ”

Before Gu Li exited, Zhao Jian hung up the phone first, then sent Chang An's number, and went to work again.

......

The other side.

Chang An got off the long-distance bus, and at this time she was already standing at the bus station in Ning County. Before returning to school, I told my mother that she would go back to accompany her during the National Day holiday, so as soon as the holiday ended, she rushed back.

Before she could step out of the station, the phone rang. Chang An saw that it was an unfamiliar number, and immediately pinched it. Just two steps away, the phone rang again, still the same number.

Chang An put down the suitcase and picked it up: "Hello, which one?"

"Where are you?"

Chang An was stunned, the voice on the other end of the phone was clear and low, as good as ever, she shouted excitedly: "Big ...... Great God?"

The other party's volume suddenly increased, Gu Li subconsciously took the phone farther away, reached out to cover his ears, and spoke after a moment of silence: "Where is it?"

"Ning County Passenger Transport Center. Chang An replied truthfully.

"Stand still and wait for me. ”

"Hmm, what's wrong?" Chang An was puzzled.

Gu Li said succinctly: "Come with me to Y City." ”

"What for?" Chang An asked him, although he didn't know what he was going to do, he heard a little anxious tone from the words of encouragement, and then she continued: "Do you have to go?"

"Hmm. ”

"But I told my mom that I would go back to see her during the holidays. Chang An's tone was a little hesitant.

"Call and tell Ling Ci that you have something to do and you can't go back. Then, Gu Li hung up the phone.

Although, at this time, Chang An behaved like he was confused, but he still did it.

Half an hour later, Gu Li arrived as scheduled.

Chang An greeted him, "What are you doing in Y City?"

"Investigating the case, I lack an assistant. The tone was as indifferent as ever.

Chang An wondered, if he wanted an assistant, there should be a lot of people lining up to come to the door with a casual shout, right?

Gu Li raised his eyebrows and smiled: "The answer is obvious, you have to be." With that, he turned around and got into the car to Y City.

"Do I have to?" Chang An was stunned for a moment, his little heart couldn't help but flutter twice because of his words, of course, he was quickly pressed down by Chang An's reason, quickly got into the car, and sat down beside him.

The car drove a distance on the winding mountain road, Chang An glanced at Gu Li, who was closing his eyes and recuperating, the tip of his nose passed the quiet aroma, shallow, faint, the taste seemed to be a little familiar, which made her lose her mind.

After a long time, she turned around and asked in a low voice, "Why?"

Gu Liwei opened his eyes and said lightly: "First, when I investigate the case, I don't like to be disturbed, so I need someone to help me deal with those trivial things, such as dealing with the police;

Third, you are not too stupid to keep up with my train of thought, after I have analyzed the case, if the police do not understand something, you can help interpret it;

Finally, and most importantly, you are very good at making fish. ”

Chang An was speechless: "......"

The most important point is not because of her professional ability, but because of her cooking skills?
