When Chen Tianyu and the two came to SH, a big city in the east, they looked down from a height of 10,000 meters, and the earth was still immersed in the dark color of sparks, they bought a ticket at 2 o'clock in the morning, and enjoyed a bizarre discount, but they came to SH just for a transit, not their final destination, he proposed to stay in this bustling city for one night and take a brief tour the next day, but Liu Zichen rejected the proposal: Yiting is urgent, obviously the case is very urgent, and it is related to the efficiency of the Beiting Detective Agency。

So when they got off the plane, they immediately transferred to a bus at the airport and went to their destination - NB, in the middle, they actually had to transfer to the high-speed rail in a big city HZ, as usual, non-stop, and rushed to the station as soon as they arrived, Chen Tianyu pouted and didn't say anything, he also wanted to know what complicated case he could receive this time.

Even so, when they arrived at NB, it was already six o'clock in the evening, at this time all the regular units had already gotten off work, Chen Tianyu was in the remote high-speed rail station, or first called the local Municipal Public Security Bureau liaison officer, informing that Beiting had arrived in the city, the person who answered the phone was obviously a little surprised, probably did not expect Beiting, which was thousands of miles away, to arrive, and his tone seemed to be relieved.

Chen Tianyu asked him if he would meet now, the other party muttered for a moment on the phone, and asked Chen Tianyu if he needed to rest for a night, Chen Tianyu immediately said that it was okay, about half an hour later, the medium-sized liaison appeared in the high-speed rail station, although he still looked a little sleepy, but he still shook hands very warmly to welcome the two.

The visitor introduced himself: "Hello, Chief Inspector Chen. …… I am Guan Shaoxing of the Municipal Bureau, and now I am the deputy director in charge of criminal investigation. ”

Chen Tianyu was secretly surprised, why did the city bureau send such a high-level liaison? It seems that things are not very simple. He was not verbose, and said straight to the point: "Deputy Director Guan, what kind of case is it, and I still have to bother you to go out in person?"

Guan Shaoxing helped them pull a simple suitcase and said, "It's so late now, I'll arrange a hotel for you to stay in first, let's talk while we walk?"

Chen Tianyu nodded, and the three of them walked out of the high-speed rail station together, and got into the police car specially arranged by Guan Shaoxing, and he actually drove out by himself.

The police car left the station and sped off into the city.

In the car, Deputy Director Guan briefly introduced the case this time, it turned out that just a few days ago, the city bureau received a case transferred by the 110 police station, the informant was a lean young man, who claimed to be the second officer of an ocean-going freighter on the phone, and he reported that five crew members on his freighter had disappeared mysteriously.

"Missing, who is missing, is it at sea?......" Liu Zichen was surprised.

Guan Shaoxing drove the car without looking back, but said, "That's right." …… It was at sea that disappeared, and according to him, the five were their captain, first mate, doctor and two sailors. ”

Chen Tianyu was also a little surprised, he also had a little understanding of the situation on the ship: "If you go missing at sea, unless you accidentally fall overboard, is it caused by too much wind and waves?...... Even the captain is missing, so I'm afraid it's not easy. ”

"That's right. We learned through the meteorological department that the sea conditions in the sea area where the incident occurred during this period were very good, and it was impossible to accidentally fall overboard under normal circumstances...... The whole thing is a bit bizarre and happened east of the Sea of Japan, so the city bureau takes it very seriously, but according to the informant's description, we are still a little confused......"

Chen Tianyu looked at the expression and tone of the deputy director from the side, and probably guessed something.

"Do you suspect that the men of their own ship are guarding and stealing themselves?......" he asked pointedly.

Deputy Director Guan shook his head: "The current situation is not clear, several of my colleagues have rushed to this cargo ship for preliminary investigation, and there is no evidence to prove that there has been a criminal case on this cargo ship for the time being...... But I do have such doubts in my mind, but it is too early to draw conclusions. ”

Liu Zichen said curiously, "How could you think of notifying us of Beiting?"

Deputy Director Guan laughed: "At that time, Beiting was established, and I was fortunate enough to participate in it by chance, which made you laugh, Chief Inspector Li Yiting was my idol when I was young...... After a preliminary investigation into this matter, we found that the complexity of this case has exceeded the scope of normal detection, and it is impossible to find out the truth in a short period of time by relying solely on the strength of the police. …… So I wanted to try, but I reported it to the higher authorities, and they actually agreed. ”

Only then did the two understand that it seemed that this case was actually not very urgent, but the facts of the case were strange, not only was the situation too unclear, but the location of the case was very sensitive, and there must be some hidden secrets that no one knew.

Chen Tianyu didn't speak again, the car fell silent, his heart was faintly unhappy, the police probably regarded this incident as a non-human factor, about the legend of the Dragon Triangle, Chen Tianyu naturally heard more or less. Could it be that Beiting is specifically investigating supernatural incidents?

He finally said, "Then let's meet the informant." ”

--------------------------------------------------------------------

Nothing was said all night.

When they saw the informant, they couldn't help but have some strange feelings. This second mate named Xia Yuanshen looks impressive, more than one meter and seven in size, looks less than a hundred pounds, not only sharp-beaked monkey gills, but also his eyes are rolling around, if it weren't for him claiming to be the second mate of the freighter, the two of them would definitely treat this person as a thief when walking on the street.

Chen Tianyu frowned slightly, looking at this thief-eyed guy without saying a word.

Unexpectedly, this obscene character actually arrogantly cocked Erlang's legs and smoked cigarettes by himself, which made Liu Zichen feel a lot of disgust.

Deputy Director Guan gave his subordinates a look, and his assistant, Officer Zhang Jian'an, immediately said, "Tell me more about the situation at that time...... It's better to be detailed. ”

Xia Yuanshen glanced at a few people impatiently, and said slowly: "I have said it many times, not only do you not believe it, but you always suspect me of lying, so what else do I have to say." I didn't report it if I knew it, it's actually a company business, and I'm really nosy. ”

Officer Zhang Jian'an shouted angrily: "You give me honesty, this is our director, speak well." ”

Xia Yuanshen looked indifferent, pouted and said: "What's wrong with the director, I'm not a prisoner, this is obviously your police incompetent, and if you can't investigate, you will be angry with us, is this how your police handle the case? I still want to appeal to your superiors......

Chen Tianyu calmly observed from the side and did not speak for a long time.

It seems that there is still a lot of work to be done to find out the truth from the mouths of such people.
