"What does this tattoo mean?" Xu Lang asked after being silent for a long time.

Hou Debao has been secretly observing the changes in this young man's expression, and after some observation, Hou Debao feels very satisfied, but at the same time satisfied, there is a faint disappointment, which is a very complicated emotion.

In addition to Xu Lang's shock when he saw the photo he gave him, Hou Debao did not have a superfluous expression on Xu Lang's face, he was very satisfied, and felt that Xu Lang was a very good young man, at least, much calmer than most young people he had seen, at this moment, hearing Xu Lang ask, Hou Debao did not hide it, and said directly: "This is not a tattoo, but a mark." ”

"Marking?" Xu Lang looked at Hou Debao with a puzzled expression.

Hou Debao nodded, then changed the topic, and suddenly said, "Do you know 'Master Chang'?" ”

Xu Lang was a little surprised to see that Hou Debao did not directly explain what the tattoo was, but when he heard Hou Debao ask, he thought about it, nodded, shook his head again, and said: "The first time I heard 'Master Chang' was about six or seven years ago, when I was still studying at the police academy and heard this name before I went on a secret mission. ”

"What do you know?" Hou Debao looked at Xu Lang with interest.

"At the beginning, when I first heard this name, I thought that 'Master Chang' was a personal name, since you know 'Master Chang', then, I think you should know Gao Chenghua." Xu Lang said slowly.

Hou Debao nodded, continued to look at Xu Lang, and did not speak.

"When I was still in the police academy, I once carried out an undercover mission, and the target of the undercover was Gao Chenghua's criminal gang, before going undercover, I knew that there was a person named 'Master Chang' in this criminal gang, at first, I thought that 'Master Chang' was a person's name, he may be surnamed Chang, it is Gao Chenghua's military advisor, it's just"

Hou Debao interrupted Xu Lang's words, and then said: "It's just that after you successfully went undercover and cooperated with the police to crack down on Gao Chenghua's criminal gang, you didn't arrest 'Master Chang', right?" ”

Xu Lang nodded, he looked at Hou Debao with some surprise, he didn't expect this weapon expert from Yanjing to know so clearly.

Hou Debao naturally saw Xu Lang's doubts, and he explained: "On the way to S City, I have read the information of Gao Chenghua's criminal gang, and naturally I also know what you have done. ”

Hearing this, Xu Lang was immediately relieved, and he didn't worry about anything.

"Have you always thought that 'Master Chang' is Wang Jin?" Hou Debao squinted at Xu Lang and asked.

Xu Lang hesitated for a moment and said slowly: "At the beginning, I thought so too, but later, when the Bu Zimo case appeared, I vaguely knew that Wang Jin was 'Master Chang', but 'Master Chang' was not Wang Jin, because 'Master Chang' was not a person." ”

Hou Debao glanced at Xu Lang appreciatively, nodded, and said: "Your guess is right, 'Master Chang' is indeed not a person, Wang Jin is 'Master Chang', Gao Chenghua is also 'Master Chang', and Xu Yi is also 'Master Chang'." ”

Hearing Hou Debao say this, Xu Lang had no expression on his face, but there were turbulent waves in his heart, Wang Jin is 'Master Chang', the entire S City, and even the police officers in H Province know that after all, the case Bu Zimo committed at the beginning was too big, too many people died, and too many people were alarmed, Xu Lang always thought that 'Master Chang' only had two people, at least, he only knew two, one of them was Wang Jin, and the other was Xu Yi, however, what Xu Lang didn't expect was that Gao Chenghua was actually too' Master Chang', this is something he never thought of.

Although Xu Lang had no expression on his face, Hou Debao was an old man after all, he seemed to see something, his eyes no longer looked at Xu Lang's eyes, but glanced down at the documents placed in front of Xu Lang, and said lightly: "You take a look at these things first, after reading them, you will know what 'Master Chang' is." ”

Xu Lang was not hypocritical, lowered his head, picked up those documents and materials and read them carefully, at the beginning, Xu Lang could still maintain a calm expression, but, looking at it, flipping through it, the expression on his face became more and more solemn, more and more gloomy, because the documents that Hou Debao showed him were the cases that shocked the whole country that year, including Shangguan Jing's father Shangguan Huasheng, as well as Teng Hongtu, He Jin, Mu Zhi, Gao Chenghua, Wang Jin and Xu Yi's information.

Among these people, Teng Hongtu, He Jin, Mu Zhi and Wang Jin, all four of them died, and they all died in the police crackdown, Xu Lang was not surprised by this result, but, what surprised Xu Lang was that these people were all heroes who were once dominant in Huaxia, Xu Lang used to be in the police academy, and in addition to training, he had inadvertently read their files, just, In the library of the police academy, the information I saw was very simple, but Xu Lang knew how important the cases these people had committed were, such as Teng Hongtu, the criminal gang he was in more than 30 years ago, was the emperor of the northwest region, which brought a great threat to the security of Huaxia Kingdom, but later, Teng Hongtu's criminal gang was exterminated by the state, until a moment ago, Xu Lang thought that Teng Hongtu was just a backbone member of the criminal gang, but what he didn't expect was, A criminal gang of Nuoda, Teng Hongtu is the real leader.

In addition to Teng Hongtu, cases like He Jin and Mu Zhi were shocked in Huaxia for a while, and Xu Lang didn't really pay attention to them, but he didn't expect that these people were 'Master Chang'.

After a long, long time, Xu Lang finally finished reading the information in his hand, his face was not only dignified, but also very pale, I don't know if it was frightened, or because of other reasons, he put down the information in his hand, felt that his lips were a little dry, he stretched out his tongue and licked the corners of his mouth, then looked at Hou Debao, and said slowly: "What is 'Master Chang'?" Is it an organization? ”

Hou Debao thought for a while and said slowly: "It can be said that they are an organization, but they are not an organization. ”

Hearing Hou Debao say this, Xu Lang frowned and looked at Hou Debao puzzled.

Hou Debao explained: "What exactly is 'Master Chang', in fact, we don't know, only know, 'Master Chang' is not a person, but a group of people, how many people are in this group, we don't know, what they want to do, we don't know, we only know, but where there is a criminal gang that 'Master Chang' appears, it must not be simple, I think you can see it after reading these documents." ”

Xu Lang nodded and didn't refute, because he knew that what Hou Debao said was right.

"At the beginning, like you, we all thought that 'Master Chang' was just a person's nickname, but later, we found out that 'Master Chang' was just a fixed code name, and the name 'Master Chang' was very similar to the martial arts alliance leader in the ancient rivers and lakes, just a fixed title, in fact, we don't know what they are like to do, but, from the information we currently have, 'Master Chang' is an organization born specifically for crime." Hou Debao said with a solemn face.

Hearing this, Xu Lang not only relaxed because Hou Debao proved his guess a long time ago, but the expression on his face became extremely solemn, he frowned, looked at Hou Debao and said: "This is impossible, in front of a huge state machine, no criminal organization can exist for so long." ”

Xu Lang's words are right, now is not ancient times, Huaxia is not a feudal dynasty, and 'Master Chang' is not a hero in the rivers and lakes, let alone a hero of Liangshan in "Water Margin", like' Master Chang's such a dangerous criminal organization can't exist for so long, judging from the information Xu Lang has seen so far, the farthest is Shangguan Huasheng fifty years ago, and the most recent is Wang Jin, who died not long ago, such a criminal organization that has existed for more than fifty years as far as it is concerned, how can it exist for so long, the police do not allow them to exist, for the stability of the country, the country will not allow them to exist, after all, this is Huaxia, not a foreign country,' Master Chang is not the Yamaguchi group, not the mafia, their existence will threaten the lives and interests of many ordinary people, there is no need to exist at all, why, after more than 50 years, this so-called criminal organization can still exist in the world, from time to time to jump out, surprise the police, prove their existence?

Hou Debao knew what Xu Lang was thinking, he pondered for a moment, and then said: "Actually, the existence of 'Master Chang' is because of some problems left over from history. ”

Xu Lang raised his eyebrows and looked at Hou Debao without speaking.

"I think you must have also seen that the information we have about 'Master Chang' is the farthest away from now is Shangguan Watson."

Xu Lang nodded, he always felt that the existence of Shangguan Watson was a very strange problem, Shangguan Watson was an arms dealer in the last century, and he poured arms, of course, at that time, the history was very complicated, so Shangguan Watson was very popular, and no one would treat him well, but now it is different, the country is extremely stable, and it is impossible to have such a profession as an arms dealer, and the country does not allow such a profession to exist, after all, this is not country M.

"Why didn't Shangguan Watson die? Why wasn't he arrested? Xu Lang asked.

Xu Lang's question went straight to the point, right to the point, which was also a question that Xu Lang couldn't figure out.

"Hey"

Hou Debao sighed and said: "Shangguan Watson is the strangest one in 'Master Chang', and the one with the best luck, he once helped the country and provided a lot of weapons for the country's army, the things of the last century, you also know, although Shangguan Watson chose to help the country, mainly for the sake of interests, but, I have to admit that he has merit, plus, after the country gradually stabilized, he chose to wash his hands in a golden basin, and he was no longer in contact with that industry, so he naturally would not do anything to him." ”

Although Xu Lang didn't know what Shangguan Huasheng had done for the country, but after the country was stable, he was still alive and well, and he also built an orphanage, which is very revealing, Xu Lang pondered for a long time, and continued to ask: "After talking for a long time, you still haven't told me, what is 'Master Chang'." ”

Hou Debao heard Xu Lang say 'Master Chang' as a thing, Rao is a person like Hou Debao, he still smiled, he continued: "What 'Master Chang' is, we don't know, but from the information we have so far, they are an organization, a criminal organization, everyone you see now is an independent individual, say they are' Master Chang's is also right, it is okay to say that they are not, it is precisely because they are very hidden, so, no one knows what they want to do, these years, the state has cracked down on several huge criminal gangs, there are their shadows, this is very problematic, before, we didn't know how to start, after all, except for Shangguan Huasheng is now dead or alive I don't know, now we have these people, they are all dead, naturally there is no place to know. ”

"But now things are turning around." Hou Debao looked at Xu Lang and said.

Xu Lang thought about it, thought of what had happened recently, and said with a somewhat gloomy face: "You mean the orphanage case?" ”

Hou Debao nodded and said: "Yes, the 'Master Chang' who died before, when the forensic doctor dissected their corpses, he found the skeleton tattoo, and I don't know what it means, and now, the police in S City found this kind of tattoo in the case of the orphanage, and it is not only on one person, but on many people, so we suspect that the orphanage is actually a den for 'Master Chang' to train criminals, so"

"So you're from Yanjing, right?" Xu Lang answered.

Hou Debao nodded and looked at Xu Lang appreciatively.

"What exactly does a skull tattoo mean? You said before that this is a marker? Why? Xu Lang asked.

"Tattoos are not an uncommon thing now, but in the past, it was a very novel thing, and it was tattooed on the scalp, and this kind of tattoo used to only appear on the body of 'Master Chang', but now it suddenly appears so much, naturally there are many problems, we have always believed that the skeleton tattoo is a mark of the organization of 'Master Chang', a mark of identity." Hou Debao explained.

Hou Debao's words once again confirmed Xu Lang's previous speculations, and now hearing Hou Debao say this, Xu Lang was not too surprised, he pondered for a long time before he slowly spoke: "Even if you come, it doesn't matter, those with tattoos are dead, and dead people can't speak." ”

Hou Debao narrowed his eyes, looked at Xu Lang and said slowly: "There are still people who are not dead." ”

"Who?"

"Shangguan Jing, Wang Yalan, Liu Siya, Xu Yi and Shangguan Huasheng." Hou Debao named five people.

Xu Lang was stunned for a moment, and then smiled bitterly, he knew that Hou Debao was right, the director of the Chengxi Orphanage was Shangguan Jing, and Shangguan Jing, Wang Yalan and Liu Siya participated in the 921 case and killed so many people, but they have now fled S City, as for where they are now, no one knows, the police have not arrested them so far, as for Shangguan Huasheng, he is the first director of the Chengxi Orphanage, but he disappeared more than ten years ago, and Shangguan Huasheng's age is not young, Who knows if he is dead or alive now?

In the end, it was Xu Yi, hearing the name Xu Qi, Xu Lang felt very uncomfortable, if it was before, he would definitely not care, after all, for Xu Lang, he was just a stranger who looked exactly like himself, however, now, he knew that Xu Qi was his twin brother, his own relatives, although Xu Lang is not a police officer now, but he is still a criminal investigation consultant, and Xu Lang is' Master Chang's members are members of the criminal organization, and they are originally two opposing forces, so Xu Lang's mood is very complicated.

The police are looking for Xu Yi now, Xu Lang himself is also looking for him, the police are looking for him to find out what kind of organization 'Master Chang' is, and Xu Lang is looking for him to figure out what happened twenty-six years ago, why did his father Xu Yuan do this, and how did Xu Yi become a member of 'Master Chang', although the purpose of the two sides is different, but the ultimate pursuit is the same, they are all to find Xu Yi.

However, Xu Lang knows very well that it is not easy to find Xu Qi, since Bu Zimo's case, Xu Qi appeared in Xu Lang's house, after the two talked once, Xu Qi disappeared, the last time the two contacted was not long ago, or because of Shangguan Jing's matter, however, the two sides did not meet again, and Xu Lang didn't know where that guy was, so it was very difficult to find the five people who were alive.

Hou Debao seemed to know what Xu Lang was thinking, and he said slowly: "The orphanage in the west of the city was exposed, although those people escaped, but they still left a lot of clues, from these clues, we can find a lot of useful things, we are already slowly approaching this organization, I believe that in the near future, we will unveil the mysterious veil of 'Master Chang'." ”

Hearing Hou Debao say this, Xu Lang thought so, he naturally knew that in front of the country's sharp weapons, it was impossible for any so-called huge criminal organization to really disappear, be discovered, be found, and be struck, that was the inevitable result, but what Xu Lang didn't understand was what 'Master Chang' was, maybe, everything was just like what Hou Debao said, as long as the people inside 'Master Chang' were found, the truth could be known and the veil of mystery could be revealed.
