Behind a dirt bag not far away, several pairs of sneaky eyes were revealed, staring closely at the detectives' every move.

In the pit, a corpse wrapped in a white cloth was placed inside. "Cover the coffin!" The crane arm re-closes the lid of the coffin.

The exhumed female corpse was laid flat on the ground, and Huffman walked over and lowered his head to lift the white cloth, revealing a white chrysanthemum lead-gray face. Huffman shone his flashlight and waved his hand, and the body was placed in a nylon corpse sleeve that was zipped.

Several detectives carried the body bag to the truck in front of the cemetery, and the detectives in the car reached out to help and carried the body bag onto the truck.

Huffman said a few words to the driver and walked to his car. Huffman started the engine and drove the Mercedes sedan down the road.

On the road. Huffman himself drove the Mercedes sedan in front, followed closely by the large truck with the corpse.

Behind is a sports car driven by Inspector Lee, and Horsta holds a telescope in his hand, staring nervously at the car in front of him.

The eastern suburbs crematorium arrived quickly.

The car entered the crematorium, the sedan stopped, the truck followed suit, and the body bag was lifted from the back compartment.

Huffman got out of the car and said to the director of the crematorium, "Director, I have a body to be cremated, please arrange for the melting furnace immediately." ”

The director watched as the body bag was brought in, "Let's put the body in the morgue first, I'm sorry Mr. Director, it's really unfortunate that the furnace wire has burned out, and I haven't had time to replace it with a new one." ”

Huffman glared at him fiercely, "Bastard, did you deliberately make a name for yourself, I heard that you took money to burn your body, is there such a thing?" I don't have any money for you, you have to burn it for me right away, and I'll shoot you if something happens!"

The director shook his head again and again, "Lord Director, the hearth is really broken, I don't believe you can see it yourself." Hehe, I've already sent someone to Cleo City to buy it, and it's estimated that I'll be able to rush back tomorrow morning. ”

Huffman came to the furnace, the director opened the furnace door, Hefman probed in and looked, "It seems that you are not lying, so let's put the body away, no one is allowed to approach it, I will send someone to supervise, I will come back early tomorrow morning." ”

The morgue was a large room with rows of drawers, and the detective came in carrying the body bag of the white chrysanthemum, and the director pointed to a drawer, "Put it in this compartment, it's safe." ”

The body bag was placed by several detectives into a compartment on the second floor, and the cabinet door was closed.

Huffman walked to the door and pointed to the three detectives, "You three are on duty here tonight, you are not allowed to sleep, you are not allowed to leave your post without permission, anyone who comes close to the corpse will shoot and call the police, do you understand?" ”

The detective stood up and said, "Yes! Huffman drove the sedan away, and so did the truck.

There was not a single figure at the gate of the crematorium.

Inspector Li suddenly appeared at the door, and the guard Leng Buding came out of the shadows and asked sharply, "Who?" At the same time, he pointed a gun at Inspector Lee.

Inspector Li stepped forward casually, "I'm Inspector Li, Director Huffman asked me to supervise the burning of the corpse, what are you afraid of going wrong?" Where was the gun just now? ”

The guard replied, "I don't know, suddenly someone released a gun, maybe it was a gangster who hunted wild food." ”

Inspector Li pretended to be unhappy, "You guys are too paralyzed and careless, if something happens to the corpse, your skull should be moved." ”

Lee said as he walked towards the morgue. The guard followed closely behind, while explaining: "This, Inspector Li, don't worry, with us, there will be no problems." ”

Inspector Li asked, "Where is the corpse?" ”

"In the 9th block of the second row."

Inspector Li came to the 9th block of the 2nd row, and suddenly, there was a fierce gunfire outside, and Inspector Li said to the guards, "You guys go out and have a look, guard the door, don't let the gangsters get their hands on it." ”

"Yes!" All three guards ran out.

Inspector Li opened the drawer containing the corpse, took out the miniature camera he carried with him, and took a few pictures of the corpse. He quickly came out and asked at the gate, "Are you alright?" I'll go first, and you must strengthen your guards, and you must not slack off in the slightest. ”

"Okay, don't worry, Inspector Lee." The guards said.

Inspector Lee ran towards the car in the distance.

It was late at night, the weather was strangely cold, and the crematorium was at the gate. The three guards held their guns, their necks hunched, and they stomped their feet in the cold.

Two hours later, the director returned to the crematorium.

The director led a worker into the door, saw three guards lying on the ground, and immediately leaned over and woke them up, "How dare you sleep here, I want the director to know, I have to shoot you!" ”

The three guards got up, and one of the guards rubbed his sleepy eyes and said in a daze, "We don't know how to fall asleep." ”

The director advised: "You guard the door, let's go in and change the furnace wire." The worker followed the director in.

The director watched the workers change the furnace wire after dividing it by two, and the director walked to the drawer, opened the drawer and took a look, and said to himself: "Hey, I was going to wait until tomorrow morning to burn, forget it, burn early and overlift early, come, little D, take a handle and carry the corpse to the burning bed." ”

The two carried the corpse on the burning bed, pushed the hearth, closed the door, and the director moved the electric switch, only to hear a "boom", the red light flashed inside, a puff of black smoke came out, and a thick smell of burnt paste overflowed.

Early the next morning, Superintendent Huffman had just pushed the door and walked into the police commissioner's office, when the phone rang, and he grabbed the phone: "Hey, I'm just, oh, it's the director, what, the body is burned?" Isn't the furnace wire broken? Uh-huh, just burn it, nothing goes wrong, uh-huh, that's good. ”

Huffman put down the phone and let out a long breath.

Dengyun Apartment is the place where Bai Ju lived before the flower.

Today, Inspector Lee, Horsta, and Hui Lixiang ascended the wooden staircase to the third floor. A hallway, the floor all paved with fine mahogany, they stopped at the door of an apartment, and Hui Rika stopped in front of the door of room 308, took out the key, and opened the door.

Hui Lixiang is Bai Chrysanthemum's cousin, and she led Inspector Li to search Bai Chrysanthemum's apartment in front of her flowers today.

Hui Lixiang opened the door, and Inspector Li walked into the room where Bai Chrysanthemum had lived. As soon as she turned on the light, Hui Lixiang hurriedly opened the velvet curtains, opened the window, and a musty smell wafted faintly with a burst of jazz music.

Inspector Li looked at the white chrysanthemum room: the room was thirty to forty square meters in size, with a parquet wooden floor spread to the end, and the wallpaper was pink with floral patterns, full of feminine atmosphere. A luxurious bed with a premium spring bed sits in the centre of the bedroom. Next to the bed is a high-end wardrobe, and against the wall is a large writing desk with a flared gramophone.

Inspector Li nodded to Hui Lixiang, who understood, and sat on the sofa with her hands crossed without saying a word.

Inspector Li and He Shida took out a foldable magnifying glass and began a careful search of the whole house: walls, floors, cracks in floor joints, ceilings, toilets, desks, drawers, beds, bedding, under beds, and wardrobes, all carefully and rigorously searched.

Richard finally returned to the bookshelf, and he noticed that there was a volume in the set of "The Complete Works of Writers" that seemed to have a strange appearance, Richard picked up the book, checked it, and opened it, and it turned out that this volume was fake, and it was completely empty.

Horsta came up, and the two discussed in a whisper, and Richard opened and checked the other books, found nothing unusual, and put the books back on the shelves. Put that empty shell book back in its place.

He turned around and grimaced at Hui Rika, "The search is over, we can go." ”

Hui Lixiang showed a sincere smile for the first time, "Three hours and ten minutes, Inspector Li, I want to express my admiration for your professionalism, from the bottom of my heart." Do you know how long that detective spent searching the room last time? Five minutes. ”

Inspector Li pouted and said, "Detective's bowl of rice is not delicious, but it is very mixed, isn't it?" Horsta only smiled wryly.

The three of them came to the door of the room, Richard looked back at the whole room, and without saying anything, Hui Lixiang locked the door, and the three went downstairs.

Before getting into the car, Hui Lixiang stared at Li with affectionate eyes and asked, "Inspector Li, ask a word that maybe you shouldn't ask, this case...... Can it be broken? ”

Inspector Li pondered for a while, "Say something that maybe shouldn't be said, when I first took over this case, I felt very paradoxical, I seemed to be a dramatist, every step on the stage was arranged, where to go, what to say, what to do, are all determined by a higher will." Later, I finally got rid of it, and I found a stealth person, that is, the director behind the scenes, who had been setting up fake scenes, buying fake witnesses, and drumming up a lot of fake evidence in an attempt to mislead me. In fact, all of this was because the title of "rookie inspector" misled him and helped him. Well, that's the best, don't you know that I'm only one step away from the truth. ”

Hui Lixiang's eyes showed a gleam of joy, "Inspector Li, so you have already pressed the pulse of the entire case?" ”

Inspector Li seemed confident, "The mystery is there, and it is within reach." What I'm doing now is to remove the masks of 'invisible man', 'insider' and 'director'. I have not come today to look for any evidence, because it does not exist at all, but I am making a negative negation to counterprove my prior speculation and prediction. Your cousin says I'm going to be ruined, but will I back down? Look in my eyes. ”

Hui Lixiang's eyes glistened with tears, and she looked into Inspector Li's eyes affectionately. She felt that this was a person who fought tirelessly against the evil forces for the truth, and perhaps, he was still a person worthy of entrusting his life?

Hui Lixiang held back the tears that were about to burst out of her eyes, and got into the car wordlessly, and Heshida wanted to send her home.

Inspector Li looked at the taillights of the car in the distance, stunned.

He suddenly remembered that there was a branch of the Criminal Investigation Bureau in Cleo City, and there was a Director Linda, who was a key witness. This person has dealt with Bai Chrysanthemum many times, and Bai Chrysanthemum has been to them to deliver documents, and the two are more familiar. Yes, I would be right to go to him and find out.
