Chapter 127: Revealing the Truth
Zhang Changxu looked at Yu Qian, who was in a trance, and suddenly felt a little unbearable in his heart. However, in the Ministry of Disasters, this kind of scene is very common, and for Zhang Changxu, it is just "some" unbearable.
"Speaking of which, I would like to ask you, do you believe in the existence of gods?" Zhang Changxu thought about it for a moment and slowly spoke
"I don't believe it." Yu Qian shook his head and replied
"That's easy to explain." Zhang Changxu nodded with satisfaction: "Didn't you ask me just now, what do we do to the disaster department?" As our name suggests, we deal with 'non-natural disasters'. ”
"Is it a god?" Yu Qian asked suspiciously
"It's not a fictional god in the broadest sense of the word, shaped by a religious concept." Zhang Changxu explained, "Rather, it refers to the existence of non-conscientiousness. ”
"I see, please go on." Yu Qian recalled Prometheus, who was unharmed in the impact of the car, and somewhat understood what Zhang Changxu meant
"Ten years ago, there was an existence that transcended reality and was believed to have appeared in S City. There are outlaws who wish to communicate with this being through sacrificial rituals. Zhang Changxu simply explained to Yu Qian through vague language the earth-shattering changes ten years ago
"My daughter was chosen by these outlaws as a sacrifice for communication, right?" Yu Qian understood the hidden meaning of his painting and asked softly
"Yes, then we struck, and after paying a huge price, we eliminated the criminal organizations involved."
"Those people are the same as last night, that Prometheus, there is no way to deal with them by conventional means, right?" Yu Qian is far more sensitive than Zhang Changxu imagined
"Yes, this is our job, and we took over Yu Yao's death ten years ago." Zhang Changxu said approvingly
"But why didn't you take the case ten years ago?" Yu Qian frowned, "Won't my investigation affect you at the beginning?" ”
"For these criminals, it is no longer possible to look at them by the standard of human beings. Naturally, judicial procedures and trial standards for ordinary people are not suitable. "They are all regarded as 'non-natural disasters', and we will have a unique standard to deal with them, and we do not intend to expose them to the public unless there are special accidents." ”
"What are the special processing criteria?"
"In most cases, it's obliteration." Zhang Changxu said neatly
"In other words, unless there is a special situation (qíng), I can't find any valuable clues at all, so it won't interfere with you?"
"Yes, so 10 years ago, we didn't contact the police."
"Then I want to ask, those murderers who killed my daughter?"
"They've basically been brought to justice." Zhang Changxu paused, remembered Ren Yuan's file, and then added, "Or they were all killed." ”
Yu Qian was silent for a long time, and said tremblingly
In other words, my efforts over the past ten years have actually been worthless. If nothing else, I will never find out the truth behind it, and the real murderer has already been punished? “
"Yes." Zhang Changxu said calmly
"If I found out something before, really by accident, you would come out and stop me, wouldn't you?"
"Yes."
"Even if you don't stop me, it doesn't make sense for me to find out the truth, because the prisoner has already been solved?"
"Yes."
Zhang Changxu answered three affirmatives in a row, shattering Yu Qian's last defense, sometimes knowing the truth is far more cruel than ignorance, and the reason that supported Yu Qian's struggle until now was suddenly gone, which made him suddenly lose the source of strength. The fighting spirit that had just burned was on the verge of extinguishing.
"But, wasn't that man last night, that Prometheus, one of the criminals of ten years ago?" Yu Qian was still unwilling and asked out loud.
"It's possible that we don't have conclusive evidence that he has anything to do with the criminal organization of ten years ago, but it's certain that even if he does, it won't be too big."
"Why?"
"Because the calm of the past decade proves that the actions of 10 years ago are effective." Zhang Changxu said firmly
"By 'obliteration' in your mouth, how many people have been killed?" Yu Qian asked tentatively
"I can't give you the exact number yet, but what I can tell you is that it's huge." Zhang Changxu hesitated for a moment, but still said it
"This is impossible, there were no major reports of abnormal deaths in the population of S City ten years ago." Yu Qian said in surprise
"Why do you think they have a hukou?" Jang Chang Wook's table (qíng) was even more surprising than Yu Qian
"Okay..."Yu Qian scratched his chin and said, "I said if, I mean if, I really found out something, do you think I can, I mean I do it to them, uh, you know what I mean, right?" ”
"I understand." Zhang Changxu nodded, "I don't think I need to answer this question, everything that happened last night, I think I have already answered your question." ”
The room fell silent again, Yu Qian didn't understand, but he really couldn't accept it. In fact, he couldn't do anything about the death of his daughter Yu Yao (qíng), and he had neither the ability to find out the truth, nor the ability to take revenge on the enemy. In just a few words, Zhang Changxu revealed the truth that he had failed to find out after ten years of exhaustion, and what was even more ironic was that the enemy he wanted to take revenge on was long gone ten years ago.
Thinking about the time when he pulled Chi Haifeng into the water before, he swore to him that he would definitely find out the truth and give his daughter Yaoyao's spirit in the sky an explanation, but the three of them paid an unacceptable price in exchange for this almost child's play ending.
"If you need it." Zhang Changxu said at the right time, "I can provide you with the results of the ministry's investigation into Yu Yao's case, although the leaked content will be deleted, but I think it is enough for you to understand the cause and effect." ”
"No need, I've got it, don't bother anymore." Yu Qian said lightly, "Oh yes, you want to ask me about the results of our investigation of Meng Fusheng and that man in black, Prometheus, right?" ”
"Yes, as I said before, we will not intervene in the work of the local police unless nothing else. There have been a lot of tricky things this time, and I have to say that you were very helpful last night and pointed out the direction for our next investigation. Zhang Changxu did not hesitate to praise at all
"The price is inevitably too heavy..."Yu Qian said indifferently, "where to start?" So, let's start with Meng Fusheng's confession..."
For the next hour, Yu Qian recounted to Zhang Changxu in great detail the content of his work in the past half a month, from the conversation with Ma Wen's mother Mu Tona, the huge reconnaissance plan he formulated, the suspicions on Meng Fusheng (shēn), the speculation between himself and Bai Tianqing about Meng Wei, the supernatural events that happened in Meng's house, and how he formulated and implemented the plan to rob Meng Fusheng. During this period, Zhang Changxu listened quietly, and the recorder hanging in front of (xiōng) recorded everything exactly in detail.
Yu Qian said in such detail, as if he was explaining his last words. Zhang Changxu did not interrupt Yu Qian's narration, nor did he ask any questions, but silently listened attentively.
"That's all I can say, I have a backup of the relevant information on the hard drive, you can take it when you arrive." Yu Qian frowned and asked impatiently, "Don't you have any questions?" ”
Zhang Changxu lowered his eyes slightly, as if he was contemplating, and only then did he raise his head when he heard Yu Qian's question, and said with emotion
"Wonderful, wonderful! It's unbelievable that you've been able to investigate to this point. ”
"Falsely praised." Yu Qian replied embarrassedly: "I think you can find out about these sooner or later." ”
"It's a matter of time before we have time." Zhang Changxu's eyes were shining, and he stared at Yu Qian with a bright eye
"Since you don't have anything to ask, let's go here, I'm sleepy and need a rest." Yu Qian was a little uncomfortable and didn't overdo it, and gave an eviction order.
"Well, it's to get some rest, Officer Fish, when are you going to wake up?" Zhang Changxu still didn't have the intention of leaving, and asked with great interest, "It's not enough to just hang glucose, do you want to eat something?" ”
"No, I'm not hungry." Yu Qian said impatiently: "How do I know how long I can sleep." ”
"You don't want to wake up, are you?" Zhang Changxu said meaningfully
"I know, I've told you everything, what else do you want from me?" Yu Qian don't look over his head and don't look at Zhang Changxu
"Officer Yu, as I said at the beginning, I can not only apply for first-class merit for your two colleagues, but also give you a reason to convince yourself to live." Zhang Changxu has the appearance of a bamboo in (xiōng).
"Does my life or death have anything to do with you?"
"As I said, last night's man in black, as you call Prometheus, may not have nothing to do with what he did ten years ago. In other words, these natural disasters are inextricably linked. Zhang Changxu said in a good way
"So what? Didn't you say that too? I can't find anything by my means, and even if I do, what can I do with that kind of thing? ”
"But you found out." Zhang Changxu said: "It was found out before us. ”
"But the price paid is too heavy, far beyond what I can afford." Yu Qian said tiredly, "I'm tired. ”
"Are you worried about dragging down (shēn) people?" Zhang Changxu smiled slightly, "Indeed, for ordinary people, it is better to participate less in this kind of thing (qíng)." ”
"Still." Zhang Changxu changed his words: "For us' to the Ministry of Disasters, dealing with these things is a matter of duty, and everyone in our department is also ready to sacrifice for the people and the country." ”
"What do you mean?" Yu Qian turned his head and asked with a frown
"Since you don't care about your life anymore, are you interested in making it shine in a more meaningful place?" Zhang Changxu (qíng) said, "It is true that your daughter Yu Yao's life is irretrievable. But have you ever wondered how many lives are being threatened because of these disasters? “
"For us, there is no fame, no peace. We struggle in obscurity, and we die in obscurity. Now a new crisis is coming again, Ma Wen, Li Yaozhan and Meng Fusheng, this is just the beginning of everything. We have already had comrades who have died silently in this war, we have no way out, for the safety of the motherland and the people, we will fight to the end, and we will not take even one step back. ”
Zhang Changxu stood up abruptly, staring at Yu Qian, an ordinary man from head to toe since the appearance of the present (shēn), at this moment Hun (shēn) was filled with a fierce aura that people did not dare to look at, and the light of the burning fire rose under his eyes
"I've looked at your file, Officer Fish, and I think you're a very good guy. As I said before, our work is a hard, dangerous, nameless and important job, but it also bears the responsibility for the safety of the people. In order to prevent those tragedies from happening again, we need people who are capable, responsible, and conscious to become our comrades-in-arms. ”
Zhang Changxu stared at Yu Qian and said in a deep voice
"Would you like to join the 'Ministry of Disasters'?"
