Fortunately, Liu Chen's quick reaction and quick eyes and hands were quick, he reached out and grabbed a slender branch vine on the way down, and did not slide down, but when he was clinging, he looked down and saw a person lying in the ditch below!!

Liu Chen looked fixedly, although this person was facing down, he couldn't see who it was, but he was very sure that it was a person, and the first reaction in his mind was that it was a corpse, so he immediately decided to find out.

Liu Chen continued to slide down cautiously, came to the bottom of the slope, tore apart the tangled vines and some of the weeds that had been covered, and slowly leaned into the ditch.

In order not to get his fingerprints dirty, Liu Chen took out a pair of gloves from his pocket, and then reached out and turned over the body that had fallen into the ditch.

Turning over the face behind him surprised Liu Chen, this face had been disfigured by the murderer, the face was densely distributed with knife cuts, and the skull could almost be seen through the few cuts on his forehead, which made Liu Chen, who had always been bold, shudder.

Liu Chen didn't think about calling the police for the time being, he planned to do a preliminary investigation by himself first, the identity of the deceased was no longer recognizable by his face, and Liu Chen began to look for other clues from him.

The corpse seemed to have been carefully handled, and in addition to the face, some exposed parts such as arms were cut by a knife, as if the identity of the deceased was deliberately not recognized.

Liu Chen tried to find something in the pocket of the deceased's body that could prove the identity of the deceased, and suddenly his eyes came to the palm of the deceased, and the palm of the deceased had a very obvious gunshot wound.

Through the flesh and skin around the wound and the size of the wound, Liu Chen determined that this was a wound made by a conventional firearm, and judging from his stature, he could guess the identity of the deceased with almost 99% certainty, which was the boss of the group of people he met when he rescued Qin Si in Tongyu Village.

They are Hu Bingcheng's subordinates, these people exposed the secret that Hu Bingcheng was the mastermind behind the scenes, and it was inevitable that he would be killed, Liu Chen once again got the evidence of Hu Bingcheng's murder, but he felt very uneasy.

Hu Bingcheng was able to kill three people in a row in such a short period of time, and what he did was not foolproof, is he really not afraid of being found by the police?

Hu Bingcheng is obviously not so stupid, let alone doing too stupid things, to be able to get to that point, not only requires superb wisdom and extraordinary courage, but also needs to have a huge and almost impeccable network of relationships, which can solve crises large and small.

But Liu Chen recalled that Hu Bingcheng who went to meet with Qin Si didn't seem to be so terrifying, even though he had a unique temperament, some details were inevitably too flustered.

Could it be that Hu Bingcheng has multiple identities? Is that Hu Bingcheng in Blue Sky No. 1 fake? Or is it an illusion deliberately created by Hu Bingcheng??? Liu Chen is not sure at present, he suddenly feels that he knows very little about Hu Bingcheng's hole cards, compared to Sun Quan under the river, Hu Bingcheng is more mature and sophisticated, more thoughtful, and more complex and unpredictable.

Liu Chen no longer thought about Hu Bingcheng's affairs, and dealt with the matter in front of him first, he took out his mobile phone to take a few photos of the corpse, and took a video from multiple angles, so that he could investigate this secret murder case later.

After doing a good job of preliminary investigation and evidence collection at the scene, Liu Chen did not call the police, but continued to cover up the scene, returned to the side of the road, and continued to walk towards the residents in front.

After walking for a while, he came to a flowing stream, Liu Chen threw the gloves down, the current was rapid, and in a few seconds, the gloves used to inspect the corpse were drowned in the torrent.

After throwing away the gloves, Liu Chen really breathed a sigh of relief, as if he had just committed a crime, he was not worried that he would be suspected by the police, but worried about those who had been in contact with him, or those who were closer to the truth, the more dangerous their lives were, among them, Qin Si was the one he was most concerned about and worried about.

Liu Chen came to the house, it happened that the owner of the family also had a car, and the family had complete tools, Liu Chen wanted to give some money as a deposit, but was rejected by the owner, and asked Liu Chen to repair the car quickly.

Liu Chen took the borrowed tool, walked back, passed by the place where the body was found, he stopped and looked down, and found that the body could be seen at a glance from the angle standing on it, so he found a branch and hooked a little vine and weeds to cover it as cover.

After dealing with it, Liu Chen continued to walk back, Wu Sheng had already taken the tires off, Liu Chen found the inner tube with a flat tire and leakage, replaced it with a spare new inner tube, and then quickly inflated the tire with a high-pressure pump, and then put away the tool with confidence after testing the tire pressure.

Liu Chen and Wu Sheng drove to the house to return the borrowed tools, and along the way, Liu Chen had been hesitating to inform Wu Sheng about the corpse he had seen, but he was afraid of causing unnecessary trouble, so he seemed a little uneasy.

It was Wu Sheng who sensed Liu Chen's abnormality first, under normal circumstances, no matter what problems he encountered, Liu Chen was in a very calm state, and he rarely even saw him have negative emotional fluctuations, so he asked: "Brother Liu, what's wrong? ”

Liu Chen frowned, shook his head slightly, and explained, "No, I was just thinking about that case." ”

"Did you encounter any difficulties, or did you deviate from the direction?"

"I feel that the energy behind Hu Bingcheng is far beyond my imagination. ”

Wu Sheng rarely saw Liu Chen sigh like this, he thought that Liu Chen was also scared, so he gave Liu Chen some positive confidence from his own point of view, and encouraged: "To be able to mix so blatantly in the provincial city, the forces behind it must be very strong, but in fact, these people's buttocks are generally not clean, as long as we want to deal with him, it is not without a chance, whether it is solved by legal means or private violence, I believe that Brother Liu You can win this duel." After speaking, he also took out a cigarette from the cigarette case in the drawer of the car and threw it to Liu Chen, "Smoke a cigarette and recover your state." ”

"Hehe, I haven't taken Hu Bingcheng as an opponent yet, I can't talk about a duel, I have no foundation in the provincial capital now, I don't want to wade into the troubled waters here for the time being, and I will go back to Jiangxia after solving the things in front of me, which is my main battlefield. Liu Chen continued to smoke, laughed, and suddenly put down his posture, his policy towards Hu Bingcheng was to despise it strategically and attach importance to tactically, his ears were always surrounded by Li Rongfei's advice, and even the figure of Li Rongfei's mother in his imagination would appear, staring at his every move, at this very moment, it is better to restrain a little, so as not to cause extraneous branches.

But Liu Chen's words actually revealed some information, he used it temporarily, that is to say, when the time is ripe in the future, he will still try the water of the provincial capital, and if you want to go to the provincial capital to test the water, you will inevitably encounter Hu Bingcheng, Hu Bingcheng is a big mountain that everyone who comes to the provincial capital has to face.

You just want to make a little money and get a piece of the pie, you can, stay aside honestly and eat some leftovers, but if you want to eat a good meal, and you want to eat well and eat well, it depends on whether Hu Bingcheng agrees or not.

This is Hu Bingcheng's territory, and it is also the rules of the game he formulated, Liu Chen didn't have such a deep feeling before, but in the few days after coming to the provincial capital, he heard about the grievances between Qin Si and his wife and Hu Bingcheng, experienced the critical moment of Qin Si's kidnapping, and also saw how those who offended Hu Bingcheng disappeared into this world.

Hu Bingcheng is now a huge palm on the provincial road shrouded in the sky, in this territory where he covers the sky with one hand, can Liu Chen break out of the world for himself like he did under the river?

Wu Sheng spat out the window of the car, turned around and asked, "Brother Liu, there is a question I don't know whether to ask or not." ”

Liu Chen saw a different taste in Wu Sheng's expression, he snorted and said, "What questions, you ask." ”

"What is your dream, and what is your ambition?" this may be the most in-depth and thought-provoking question that Wu Sheng has ever asked Liu Chen.

Liu Chen was stunned at first, then blinked, and asked rhetorically, "Is there any difference between the two?"

Wu Sheng thought for a moment and said: "Dreams are usually a positive term, righteous and good, while ambition is a derogatory term, evil and ugly, just like Sun Quan. ”

Liu Chen stared at Wu Sheng tightly for a few seconds, and asked with a smile, "Then why do you ask me what my ambition is?"

"Actually, anyone is ambitious, but some people can control their ambitions and do things that are beneficial to human society, and some people can't control their ambitions, so they will become selfish and selfish, and they will not hesitate to sacrifice the interests of others for their own ambitions. ”

Wu Sheng's explanation made Liu Chen a little surprised, but he was very satisfied, this is also his own answer, which can be said to perfectly explain the contradiction in Liu Chen's heart, the ambition of justice, and it is not shameful.

After Liu Chen was serious for a moment, he finally smiled, and he said with a smile: "My dream is that I hope that there will be no more bullying and weakness in the world, no more trampling on justice, and every corner of the world will be full of fairness, justice and love." And my ambition is to crush those evil ambitions. ”

Wu Sheng also laughed, Liu Chen's exposition of his ambition just confirmed the concept he has always practiced, always be the enemy of evil, and always be the companion of justice.

"Brother Liu, you are the killer in the eyes of those bad guys!"

"Hehe, they have their choices, and I also have my principles, who told them to choose to be bad people. ”

The two looked at each other and smiled, tacitly stretched out their palms, and held them tightly together, "Brother Liu, you are not alone on this road!"
