After Sylvia's matter is resolved, Mu Zili and Ning Zhe can finally leave Illinois and return to normal campus life. [Full text reading. 】
No, maybe it's not normal.
"Hey! Moore, Warren! As soon as the two brothers Bart and Barton saw them returning, they rushed up and gave them a bear hug, and then said with great interest: "Okay, you two guys, you don't forget to handle the case in Illinois, but the sheriff of our family is full of praise for you, saying that it is the first time I have seen a criminal confess to a crime so cooperatively, and let us try our best to poach you two elites to be policemen!" ”
Ning Zhe put on a look of pity, spread his hands and said: "Don't, we don't want to deal with criminals all day long, when we finish our studies, Xiao Mu and I will return to China." ”
Yes, this is something that Mu Zili and Ning Zhe discussed, if he hadn't gotten his graduation certificate yet, Mu Zili actually wanted to return to China now, he had already found out, as long as he stayed here, there would always be trouble finding him. Now Mu Zili's charity value has risen to 9,000, and the plug-in level is level 9, in the words of the system, unless he is the kind of crazy person who is extremely dangerous, ordinary criminals are not a threat to him at all.
In addition, Ackerman's side has no reason to keep them, so they can return to China freely without being restricted after country M has wiped out the spies of country H.
"Go home?!" Bart shouted in surprise, "Why do you want to go back home?" You obviously have a lot of resources here, and as long as you stay, isn't it much better to develop than to stay in your country? ”
Mu Zili's face was solemn, "Because of this, we have to go back, Ah Zhe and I are both the successors of socialism, we have decided to fully implement the core values of socialism, and contribute our strength to the country and the nation!" ”
"......" Bart and Barton looked confused.
Ning Zhe couldn't help but smile and said, "Yes, we are going back to China to shine, so don't you want us to stay here as policemen." ”
Mu Zili and Ning Zhe both said this, and Bart and they had no choice, and sighed: "Okay, okay, anyway, it's still very early to graduate, maybe you will change your mind and decide to stay, I believe that Country M is a good choice for you." ”
Mu Zili knew that the two brothers had not given up their thoughts, so they just smiled at this time and stopped talking.
After returning to campus life, the days became longer, every day in addition to studying and doing research, it was to date and play with Ning Zhe like an ordinary couple, sometimes Mu Zili himself was a little in a trance, and felt that such a peaceful life was a little wrong, but then he shook his head and threw this strange idea aside.
The calm was still broken by a phone call, and the old Sergeant Ivan, who had officially left the company, said that he would introduce the new sheriff to Mu Zili, and that he needed his assistance in a new serial murder case.
Mu Zili didn't even think about it, he took Ning Zhe to the appointment, he even thought about what kind of case it would be on the road, and he was a little eager to participate in the case.
When I saw Sergeant Ivan again, Sergeant Ivan took off his police uniform, and he was wearing a woolen cardigan, like an ordinary old man who could be seen everywhere, with a smiling face, and he couldn't see the deterrent appearance in the police station at all.
"Mohr." Old Ivan beckoned to Mu Zili, and when he saw Ning Zhe beside Mu Zili, his smile was a little more narrow, "The Warren kid is also coming." ”
Ning Zhe chuckled and nodded, and his affection for Mu Zili was undisguised in his words, "I don't worry about him, you won't dislike me if I come with the sheriff." ”
"It's better to have you there." Old Ivan knew Ning Zhe's ability, and he couldn't be happy if he could pull the two helpers Mu Zili and Ning Zhe.
"You're here a little early." Old Ivan looked at his watch, there were still ten minutes before the appointed time, "Sit down and order a drink first, and the person who made the appointment will come in a while." ”
Mu Zili and Ning Zhe were also not polite, the two ordered a cup of coffee respectively, and then Mu Zili asked about the specific circumstances of the case.
"In fact, the context of this serial murder case is very clear, and the identity of the murderer is also clear. Although the old Ivan retired from the position of sheriff, he still regarded himself as a policeman, at least in the short term, and did not completely let go of his former profession, but fortunately, the new sheriff was a good young man and did not treat him as a nosy.
"The murderer's name was Jeffrey Madison, and he committed five murders in two months, two of whom died were his former acquaintances, or more clearly, both of whom had been in a relationship with him."
"Is it because of the stimulus from the breakup?" Mu Zili asked, "His girlfriend dumped him?" Or is he too controlling, or is he too inferior? ”
Old Ivan shook his head and said, "Those two are male, yes, Jeffrey is a homosexual." ”
Hearing the word homosexuality, Mu Zili was a little awkward, because he seemed to have become gay unconsciously, and he was always a little worried about the eyes of others.
Old Ivan patted Mu Zili's hand and signaled that Mu Zili didn't care so much, "There is nothing wrong with homosexuality, whether it is a combination of man and woman, man and man, woman and woman, as long as it is out of love, it is worthy of being blessed." I think you're the right choice, Warren is a good match for you. ”
Ning Zhe pinched Mu Zili's palm, Mu Zi's inside was slightly red, and it was very rare to take the initiative to hold Ning Zhe's hand in front of others.
Old Ivan was flashed by the sparks from the collision of the two young people in front of him, he coughed lightly, and continued: "Jeffrey's relationship with those two people is not a lover in the ordinary sense, he lives on those two people, and he is quite famous in the local circle, and is called 'popular Jeffrey' by insiders. ”
Mu Zili heard disdain in Old Ivan's tone, and he guessed with some disbelief: "He is...... Male prostitutes? ”
Old Ivan did not deny that the serial murderer this time is indeed very different from the usual criminals in terms of identity, "He works in a recruitment company, and the customers are very satisfied with him, and some people will specially order him to stay overnight, so it can be said that he is a very attractive person to men." ”
"Jeffrey went after wealthy single men and made a living from them, and the two who died had good jobs and careers, and Jeffrey owned a car and a house that they gifted, and according to people who knew Jeffrey, Jeffrey claimed that he was a wealthy man, had a close relationship with the president, owned a private jet and a townhouse, and said that his father was an oil tycoon and rich enough to buy a few towns."
Ning Zhe laughed out loud when he heard this, "It seems that this murderer is still a vain liar, the reason why he suddenly killed someone, is it because of some changes in his life?" ”
Old Ivan replied: "Just two months ago, his 'boyfriend' broke up with him, I heard that he didn't buy him a yacht, who knows, in short, after the breakup, Jeffrey's luxury life is difficult to maintain, his credit card is more than 100,000 yuan in arrears, and even the car is sold." ”
"If it was just a revenge mentality that killed his two boyfriends, what about the other three cases?" Mu Zili knocked on the table and thought: "Will you see a murderer with a clear identity as a tricky person, it seems that he has no fixed way of committing crimes, and he can't predict who his next target will be?" ”
Old Ivan glanced at Mu Zili appreciatively, "That's right, this is exactly what we are worried about, especially since he has a wide range of activities, and there are many people who meet his target, in view of his harmfulness, he must be arrested as soon as possible." ”
"Target demographic?" Ning Zhe asked old Ivan, "Judging from Jeffrey's vain personality, are the victims of the other three cases rich people with successful careers?" ”
"Yes." The person who answered Ning Zhe's question was not old Ivan, but another young man who didn't know when he walked to their table.
"Jeffrey is going to target those 'celebrities', and if he commits another big crime and causes repercussions in the society, then our police department will have a reputation for incompetence." The man shrugged slightly, looking rather helpless.
At the first sight of the man, Mu Zili's eyes widened in surprise, and at the same time, old Ivan stood up and introduced to Mu Zili and Ning Zhe: "This is Sergeant Ed Douglas, who has been newly transferred from the police department, don't look at him so young, he is actually an excellent police officer with rich experience and extraordinary strength." ”
Ed Douglas smiled, "I have more to learn than you do." ”
Ed Douglas's compliments didn't sound hypocritical at all, and it could be seen from the other party's eyes that he really thought so, so old Ivan smiled very happily.
"Ed, this is the case solver I'm going to recommend to you." Old Ivan was about to introduce the names of Mu Zili and Ning Zhe so that the two sides could know each other, when Ed Douglas smiled and said, "We know each other." ”
“…… Know? Old Ivan was puzzled.
The young sheriff stretched out his hand to Mu Zili, "I didn't expect to meet again, Moore......" He looked at Ning Zhe on the side, "And Mr. Warren." ”
Mu Zili shook hands with Ed Douglas and said in a daze, "Sheriff Douglas, why did you come here?" "The sheriff who had a relationship with him before will become the new sergeant of the Quepos District Police Department? Is this too much of a coincidence?
Mu Zili subconsciously doubted the other party, he should say...... He was suspicious of anyone who suddenly approached him, and he was much more wary of others than before, even if the young sheriff seemed upright and harmless.
After Ed Douglas shook hands with Mu Zili, he shook hands with Ning Zhe, and his performance from beginning to end was not abnormal, he naturally sat down, and explained to old Ivan: "When I was on official business in Illinois, I happened to meet these two, and it can be said that they helped me a lot. It turns out that they are the ones you want to introduce to me, no wonder you are full of praise for them, if you can have their help, I believe that the case will definitely make good progress. ”
Just when Mu Zili was still thinking about whether Douglas happened to run into them, Ning Zhe had already taken over the conversation and responded to Ed Douglas in a friendly manner: "It's our honor to be able to help Sheriff Douglas. ”
Old Ivan was so happy, the few people he admired could get along so quickly, and he could really put his mind at ease and leave these things to these young people.
The rest of the conversation was not cold, Douglas unreservedly recounted the clues they had with the police, and Ning Zhe also said some of his own speculation. After understanding the basic situation, they agreed to go to the police station next time to discuss, and Mu Zili and Ning Zhe said goodbye to the two sheriffs.
After going out, Mu Zili looked at Ning Zhe suspiciously, "You were too warm and friendly to that Sheriff Douglas today, it's not like you." ”
Ning Zhe deliberately joked: "Are you jealous?" ”
Mu Zili glared at Ning Zhe, "Don't play poor. ”
"Hey...... I'm jealous when I see you shaking hands with him. Ning Zhe's eyes flashed, and he shook his fingers with Mu Zili, "I really don't want to see this kind of person by your side." ”
