The members of the CY team who are investigating the case and the members of the second criminal investigation team have been busy day and night for more than a month, and after Xu Lang came back, he finally rested for a day, so that everyone's tense heartstrings could be relaxed, and after a short break, everyone began to return to the tense and boring investigation.

In many film and television dramas, I often see those policemen who handle cases, all of them are very powerful, as long as they find the slightest clue, they can immediately analyze a lot of truths, but is this really the case?

In fact, after each case occurs, when the police investigate, they do more useless work, before the case is solved, before the truth surfaces, no one knows whether everything they do is useful or useless, investigate and visit, find information, collect all kinds of information, whether it is the victim's or the perpetrator's information, must be collected one by one, hoping that one day it can be used, and the result of the fact is that when many cases are solved, many things have been done before, and a lot of information has been collected. In the face of this kind of result, is it possible that when the next case occurs, these seemingly useless jobs do not have to be done?

The main reason for this result is that before Zhang Minhao's death, he took advantage of his position to destroy a lot of his information, and the destruction was very clean, which made the police very headache when they investigated.

Zhang Minhao's dormitory, as well as the residence, as well as the places he often goes, the police have searched and visited one by one, but there is no big gain, Zhang Minhao understands the police's case-handling procedures, and also knows the means of the police to investigate the case, he has done all the aftermath work, the only thing left for the police is his cold corpse placed in the freezer, and a series of questions that linger on him.

The investigation is ongoing.

Xu Lang was picked up and discharged from the hospital by Du Ziqiao and them that day, went to see Li Zhaojing, and after returning to CY, Xu Lang did not go to the hospital again, he still couldn't walk normally, Xu Lang was in a wheelchair when commuting to work, and as the leader of CY, he didn't need to do a lot of field work, he only needed to sit in the office now and wait for the report of the investigation results of the people below.

This kind of life makes Xu Lang very uncomfortable, for a normal person, unable to move freely, this is undoubtedly a torment, and the investigation of the case has not made the slightest progress, the people below are in a bad mood, and Xu Lang's emotions are the same, but others can show it, but Xu Lang can't, he has to often comfort those who are emotional and irritable, and encourage them to continue the investigation.

On this day, Xu Lang was still sitting in the office, looking at the thick pile of information collected by everyone on the table, most of these materials Xu Lang had seen before, and this part that he didn't see didn't have much value for the detection of the case, Xu Lang frowned after reading an investigation report on Zhang Minhao in his hand, he put down the documents in his hand, leaned back on the chair, closed his eyes, and raised one hand to rub his swollen eyebrows.

"Click."

The door of the office opened, Xu Lang opened his eyes, and saw Fan Yang walking in, still holding a box in his hand, Xu Lang thought that Fan Yang had found some new clues, although Xu Lang did not have much hope for this, but he still cheered up, sat up straight, and asked, "What did you find?"

Fan Yang's complexion is very bad, I don't know if it's because she has been busy for several days and hasn't had a good rest, which makes her very tired, or because her relatives are coming, which makes her look bad.

Fan Yang walked to the opposite side of Xu Lang, put the box in his hand on the table, sat on the chair, shook his head, sighed, and said, "I still haven't found any useful clues." ”

"Brother Lang, are we doing useless work" Fan Yang looked at Xu Lang and asked.

Xu Lang smiled, but the smile was very far-fetched, Fan Yang's emotions, this kind of doubts, other people also have, Xu Lang sometimes asks himself, everything they are doing now, is it a ghost hitting the wall, however, before there are no new clues, they have no better way, they can only continue like this, Xu Lang comforted Fan Yang a few words, but Fan Yang didn't seem to listen to it, obviously, these words, these truths, Fan Yang, as an old criminal investigator, is naturally psychologically clear, but, as far as the current situation is concerned, This kind of negative emotion is inevitable, and Xu Lang has no better way.

"What is this?"

After comforting Fan Yang for a few words, Xu Lang saw that the effect was not great, so he changed the topic and stayed on the box on the table.

Fan Yang pursed his lips, shook his head, and said, "Your courier." ”

"Courier"

Xu Lang suddenly frowned, looked at the express box, and had a question in his heart, he didn't buy anything online, who would send him a courier

As if he saw Xu Lang's doubts, Fan Yang said, "When I came back from outside, Uncle Qi in the guard room said that there is your express here, let me help bring it in." ”

Hearing Fan Yang say this, Xu Lang was also full of interest in this express, he took out a paper cutter from the table, took the box over, and opened the box carefully.

After the outer packaging of the express box was opened, an envelope appeared inside, the envelope was not very thick, Xu Lang's envelope, just opened the seal, a few photos fell out, Xu Lang looked down and found the top photo

Above, is a group photo of two men.

Xu Lang's photo shows that these are two men with a big age difference, one of them is about thirty years old, with an indifferent expression and dark skin, he doesn't look like a city person, but like a farmer who has been farming for a long time, from the cheap clothes he wears, and his rough skin, it can be seen that this man Xu Lang doesn't know, but the boy who doesn't look old standing next to the man, Xu Lang recognized it at a glance, he is Zhang Minhao when he was a child.

Zhang Minhao in the photo looks less than ten years old, he looks very cute, and his clothes are very ordinary, but his expression is different from that of his peers, indifferent, indifferent, expressionless, especially those eyes, not childlike innocence, but with a beastly indifference.

Seeing Zhang Minhao's eyes, Xu Lang couldn't help but think, is this Zhang Minhao, is this the lively and cheerful Zhang Minhao he saw before, this is not like a person at all.

However, the two look very similar, and it is basically certain that the boy in the photo is Zhang Minhao, which makes Xu Lang more and more confused.

The man standing next to Zhang Minhao is also somewhat similar to Zhang Minhao, the two should be related by blood, Xu Lang guessed that he may be Zhang Minhao's father, Zhang Kaifeng.

The photo is black and white, it looks like it was taken a long time ago, and the background of this photo is not the mountain village where the police went to Zhang Minhao's hometown before, nor the current city, but an orphanage that looks like it has been some years old.

Although the background on the photo is not particularly obvious, Xu Lang still recognized it at a glance, it was an orphanage in the west of the city.

"Could it be that Zhang Minhao is also the child from the orphanage?"

After Xu Lang determined that the location where the photo was taken was the Chengxi Orphanage, this idea suddenly came to Xu Lang's mind.

The Chengxi Orphanage was closed more than six years ago, and a series of murders occurred in the Chengxi Orphanage, killing many people, especially those who were not yet adults, and Zhang Lei was hit hard by that case at that time, so he left the police force, and it was also because of that case that Xu Lang knew how some people from Master Chang's organization came about, most of them were orphans, and they were trained to be criminals since childhood, and when they grew up, they carried out various criminal activities, fortunately, This orphanage was destroyed, but Master Chang's people also disappeared, and then, the case of besieging and killing Xu Lang six years ago appeared.

Xu Lang stared at this photo for a long time, and his eyes kept looking at the location of Zhang Minhao's left hand tiger mouth on the photo, where there was a strange scorpion tattoo, and the man standing next to Zhang Minhao also had the same tattoo on his tiger mouth, they were Master Chang's people.

Xu Lang put down the photos in his hand, and then took a few other photos, and found that these photos all took a person, and this person is Zhang Minhao, with different ages, the last photo is a photo of Zhang Minhao when he was eighteen years old, he is wearing blue jeans, carrying a backpack, standing at the gate of the police academy, on the photo, Zhang Minhao is still expressionless, and even, the corners of his mouth are flashed with a mocking sneer, his eyes are full of disgust and disdain, and he can't see it at all, How excited he is about the next college life.

After looking at these photos, Xu Lang picked up the envelope again, shook the envelope, and saw if there was anything in it, as a result, Xu Lang shook it, and a note fell out of the envelope, as well as a key, and there was only one address on the note.

Chengxi District, Leyang Street, No. 79.

Xu Lang looked at the address on the note, as well as the key that looked a little old, and his brows suddenly became tangled together, what is this address related to Zhang Minhao, what is there in this place

This series of questions filled Xu Lang's mind for a moment, he was stunned for a moment, then suddenly came back to his senses, and said to Fan Yang, "Immediately notify Du Ziqiao and Ding Haoqiong, and rush to No. 79, Leyang Street, Chengxi District." ”

If it was before, when Xu Lang saw these things, he would definitely go by himself as soon as possible, but now he is unable to move, so he has to let Du Ziqiao and them do it.

Fan Yang, who was looking through these photos, immediately stood up after hearing Xu Lang's words, turned around and was about to walk outside.

"Wait a minute." Xu Lang stopped Fan Yang.

Fan Yang stopped, turned his head, and looked at Xu Lang with a puzzled expression.

Xu Lang threw the key on the table to Fan Yang and said, "Bring this, in addition"

Speaking of this, Xu Lang pondered for a moment and said, "Let Du Ziqiao and them equip themselves with weapons and go again, pay attention to safety." ”

Fan Yang took the key and nodded, turned around and left the office.

After Fan Yang left, Xu Lang looked at the photos scattered on the table, his brows became more and more frowned, and he had a big question in his heart, who sent this courier and why did he send it to himself, and what was the purpose of the other party's doing this, Xu Lang couldn't figure it out.

However, judging from the age of these photos, they were at least more than ten years ago, and more than ten years ago, cameras were not as popular as they are now, in addition, from the perspective of shooting, this is not a candid shot, Zhang Minhao and the man know the existence of the photographer, so, who is the photographer, will it be someone inside Master Chang

Xu Lang felt that this was very likely, but if these photos were taken by Master Chang's people, then, this

Some photos should be very important things, they should be kept properly, and it is absolutely impossible to circulate them outside, which shows that the person who sent these photos to Xu Lang should also be Master Chang's person, so who is this person What is the purpose of him or her doing this?

In the organization of Master Chang, who are there and how many people, whether it is Xu Lang or the police, they don't know much, and whether there are police undercover agents within the organization, Xu Lang doesn't know, he only knows that Xu Yi used to be one of the undercover agents of this organization, and Du Ziqiao also went undercover for a period of time, but compared with Du Ziqiao and Xu Qi, the Master Chang he contacted was not even counted on the periphery, and Xu Qi had more contact, but when he was dying, he didn't have time to leave too many useful clues. As for the fact that there are no other comrades lurking inside, Xu Yi does not know.

If the other party was an undercover member of the police, why did he choose to hand over these things to himself at this time, instead of notifying the police in advance before Zhang Minhao and them acted, so as to avoid a tragedy If not, would this be a plan and a conspiracy of Master Chang

Thinking of this, Xu Lang began to become a little worried about Du Ziqiao's actions, he put down the photo, hesitated for a while, and still dialed Du Ziqiao's phone.

"What's wrong, Brother Lang," Du Ziqiao's voice came from the other end of the phone.

"Have you set off?" asked Xu Lang.

"It's already on the way."

"Did you bring a weapon?"

"Bring, what's wrong"

Hearing Du Ziqiao say that he had brought a weapon, Xu Lang's hanging heart relaxed slightly, and he immediately asked, "Have you notified the armed police?"

"Is this necessary, isn't it just to search a suspicious location" Du Ziqiao said with some confusion and some indifference.

"Let's give a notice, let the comrades of the armed police be prepared, just in case."

"What's the matter, Brother Lang, do you suspect it's a trap?"

"I don't rule out this possibility, completely first, let's be prepared." Xu Lang said with a little headache.

After Du Ziqiao was silent for a moment, he said, "Okay, I'll inform the armed police, you just wait for our good news." ”

"I hope so."

After saying this, Xu Lang hung up the phone, obviously, Xu Lang was still worried about Du Ziqiao's operation, he was worried that this was a trap designed by Master Chang, and he had dealt with this organization too many times, Xu Lang was extremely vigilant about it, for these people, there was nothing they couldn't do, they could risk their lives, but Xu Lang couldn't, in order to find out about this organization, too many people had died, and Xu Lang didn't want to see someone die.

After hanging up the phone, Xu Lang still felt uneasy, and he dialed Tian Yongchun's phone again.

"What's wrong, is there any new development in the case?" Tian Yongchun's voice rang from the other end of the phone.

"Not yet."

"Then you called me, is there something wrong?"

"I want to ask you something."

"What's the matter?"

"In Master Chang's organization, in addition to my brother Xu Qi, are there any other undercover agents?"

"Nope."

Tian Yongchun answered Xu Lang neatly, which made Xu Lang not believe Tian Yongchun's words.

"Is there really not?" asked Xu Lang again.

"Nope."

is still an affirmative answer, which made Xu Lang suddenly wonder, is his guess wrong, the person who sent him this thing is not an undercover agent planted by the police in the organization, but someone else, but Tian Yongchun's unusually positive attitude made Xu Lang feel a little abnormal, but since Tian Yongchun said so, Xu Lang has no intention of continuing to ask.

"Why do you ask this, is there something wrong?" Tian Yongchun's voice rang from the other end of the phone again.

"Oh, nothing, I'm just asking." Xu Lang was thinking about the identity of the person who sent the courier and said perfunctorily.

"Is there really nothing wrong?" Tian Yongchun asked again.

"Hmm" Xu Lang hesitated, but still said, "No." ”

Tian Yongchun didn't ask anything more, and said after a moment of silence, "Hurry up and solve the case and strive to close the case as soon as possible." ”

"Okay, I'll try."

After saying this, Xu Lang hung up the phone and fell into deep thought in a wheelchair.

And in Tian Yongchun's office, after Tian Yongchun put down the phone, his face also showed a puzzled look, Xu Lang called himself and asked if there were any other undercover members in Master Chang, this was obviously what Xu Lang had discovered, but Xu Lang refused to say, Tian Yongchun didn't ask more, for Xu Lang's question, Tian Yongchun was not unwilling to tell Xu Lang, but there are some things that can't be said when it's not at the right time, there are other undercover members in Master Chang, the answer must be there, but, Who this undercover agent is, whether it is a man or a woman, Tian Yongchun himself doesn't know, he just knows that there is an undercover agent inside, and he doesn't know anything else, so he can't give Xu Lang an answer.
