Chapter 288: The Killer Strikes

Hearing the word "sniper", Gu Song suddenly broke out in a cold sweat. He looked at Xia Shi in amazement, with an inquiring look in his eyes.

Xia Shi pointed to a group of high-rise buildings in the southeast direction and said, "The enemy is in that direction, and it is estimated that he is still secretly observing our every move." ”

"Damn, who did I recruit and provoke whom? Why did that guy with a thousand knives want to kill me? Gu Song spread his hands helplessly, and beads of sweat slid down his pale cheeks. Fortunately, there was a bunch of low bushes in front of them for cover, otherwise it would have been a question of whether they would have survived tonight.

Xia Shi got up from the ground, hid behind the bushes with a low body, and asked Gu Song half-jokingly and half-seriously, "Do you think it could be someone sent by the organization to assassinate you?" ”

Gu Song immediately shook his head and denied, "When is it, those plans of theirs are no secret for a long time, kill me to have a bird." Oh no, that guy is here for you. ”

"Impossible." Xia Shi didn't even think about it, so he got rid of it. "I don't have any enemies outside, who would go to such great lengths to hire a sniper to assassinate me?"

"Hmph, don't talk too much until things are clear. Those of us who are criminal policemen have been doing the work of offending people since the day we joined the company, who doesn't have a few enemies? It's not a new thing to be retaliated against by criminals or family members......" Speaking of this, Gu Song suddenly realized a very serious problem, "Eh, no, in the summer, the two of us decided to come to this villa to check on the situation temporarily, and no one will know our whereabouts in advance." ”

"But the sniper should have been waiting on the tall building over there, which means ......"

"He's not targeting us, but the people who live in this villa?" Gu Song completed the latter sentence for Xia Shi, and after finishing speaking, both of them fell silent.

"Xinlei may be in real trouble." After a while, Gu Song looked at the tall buildings in the distance through the gap in the bushes, and said thoughtfully, "What happened to Xinlei's family?" Why did it lead to death? ”

"No matter what happens, we can't stay here." Xia Shi said as he observed his surroundings. He didn't know if the guy waiting in the shadows was waiting for them to show up, and they had to evacuate carefully to be safe.

Gu Song was unwilling to leave like this, reluctantly looked at the floor-to-ceiling windows of the villa, and said to Xia Shi in a consultative tone: "We're all here, don't you really go in to see the situation?" ”

"Look at your size, do you have a search warrant?" Xia Shi glanced at Gu Song and asked angrily.

Gu Song originally wanted to say: What's wrong, for the sake of Xinlei, I can do anything. But after thinking about it, I have been involved in summer many times, and I can't always make trouble for summer time like a child.

"Okay, that's it for today." Gu Song sighed softly and had to make a compromise.

Back in the car, Xia Shi lit a cigarette for himself without saying a word, with a frightened expression on his face. Gu Song looked at him very funny, and couldn't help but tease: "I said, I was the one who almost got a headshot just now, what are you nervous about?" ”

"Huh?" Xia Shi was stunned for a moment, looked at Gu Song, and was a little speechless for a while. "I, I'm just a little scared, I'm not ready to collect your body."

"Cut, duplicity." Gu Song pursed his lips boringly, and said unashamedly, "I'll just say it if I'm worried, don't always beat around the bush." ”

"Do you want to have a face? Who's worried about you anymore? Xia Shi took a few puffs of his cigarette and diverted from the topic that made him feel unhappy, "Have you figured out what to do next?" ”

"I didn't think about it, anyway, let's go to Team Joe's house first."

"What are you doing at his house?"

"I don't think the two of us can handle it this time."

Dozens of minutes later, Gu Song rang the doorbell of Qiao Sheng's house. There was a sound of kicking and tapping footsteps in the living room, and then a little girl's sweet voice asked, "Who?" ”

Gu Song knew that the person who was questioning was Qiao Sheng's daughter, Tingting, and deliberately teased her: "Little friend, open the door, I'm a police uncle." ”

"I didn't call 110, there are no bad people in our family." Tingting replied innocently, thought about it and said, "My father is also a policeman, he will protect me." ”

"I'm here to find your father, you open the door for me."

"I don't open it, how do I know if you're a liar or not."

"Tingting, I'm going to be angry if you don't open the door again."

"Huh?" Tingting exclaimed in surprise, "How do you know my name?" ”

"Because ......" Gu Song was just about to explain, when the door suddenly opened. I saw Qiao Sheng holding a mobile phone in one hand, as if he had just finished talking to someone on the phone, picked up Tingting with the other, and said to the living room: "You two go sit in first, I'll put this girl to sleep and come back." After speaking, he hugged Tingting and walked towards the bedroom inside.

Tingting reluctantly lay on Qiao Sheng's shoulder, her big eyes showing that she didn't want to go to sleep at this time. She looked at Gu Song and Xia Shi and kept making faces at them. Gu Song also learned from her to look weird, which made Tingting let out a burst of "giggle" laughter.

Looking at his niece who is growing up and becoming more and more cute, Gu Song can't help but feel a little envious in his heart. No wonder his mother talks about Tingting every time he urges him to find a girlfriend, and now he wants to experience what it's like to be a father, but it's a pity that there is no woman to give him a child.

Xia Shi saw through Gu Song's thoughts at a glance, and teased him: "You are not too young, hurry up and find a woman to marry." ”

"What qualifications do you have to say about me, a single dog."

"I'm single for a reason." Xia Shi said confidently, "And no one in my family is urging me to get married, and my parents are very open-minded." ”

Gu Song didn't bother to argue with Xia Shi, walked to the sofa and sat down, picked up a forensic science book on the coffee table and flipped through it.

After a while, Qiao Sheng walked out of the bedroom. He had a hunch that tonight would be a sleepless night, so he went straight to the kitchen to boil water and make tea, and at the same time pondered in his heart how to talk to Gu Song and Xia Shi about that matter.

"Does my sister-in-law have a mission tonight?" Gu Song asked Qiao Sheng with a teacup.

"yes." Qiao Sheng took a sip of strong tea and said tiredly, "She took a case, and it is estimated that she will have to spend it in the dissection room tonight." ”

"You're both so busy at work, it's not easy to raise a child."

"There's no way, when I'm busy, I can only hand over the children to my parents to help take care of them." Qiao Sheng said with a wry smile. "By the way, you just said on the phone that you were looking for me in an emergency, what happened?"

"It's about Chu Xinlei." Gu Song told Qiao Sheng everything he had recently found out. When he mentioned that he was almost shot in the head in front of the villa, it was obvious that Qiao Sheng's face had become ugly.

"What he said is true?" Qiao Sheng couldn't believe it, and after Gu Song finished speaking, he confirmed it with Xia Shi again.

Xia Shi nodded seriously, "It's true." If I hadn't saved his life with my quick hand just now, we would have to talk in the morgue by now. ”

"Don't be alarmist." Gu Song punched Xia Shi's arm, "Maybe people don't plan to kill me at all, and the killer also has a professional ethic." ”

Qiao Sheng didn't expect things to turn out like this. After thinking for a moment, he said slowly, "I think I might know some reasons. We were supposed to discuss this at the meeting, but the two of you are in a special situation, and it doesn't hurt to tell you now. ”

Hearing Qiao Sheng say this, Gu Song and Xia Shi couldn't help but get nervous. "Team Joe, do you know what happened to the Xinlei family?" Xia Shi asked impatiently.

"I can probably speculate, but before I explain this, I have to tell you about what happened in Yunnan recently. Do you remember the vulture? ”
