Cooperate with the suspect
The next day, when the sky was slightly brightened in the early morning, Thomas lowered the brim of his hat and came to the road to the jungle park, this road is the inevitable route of Nils's daily morning run, he raised his hand and looked at his watch, the hands showed that it was 5:55, it didn't take long to see Nils, sure enough, a few minutes later, Nils's figure appeared on the path of the park, Thomas suddenly appeared to Nils a little surprised.
"Hey man, did you just come out of the crocodile nest?" Nils finished holding Thomas's hand.
"It's worse than that, old man, how are you doing?"
"Recently we were escorting key equipment to a factory called 'Sennar', and I heard that the factory was originally a DOM company, because of a title deed matter, and in general, it is still like that, but you, why did you come back with such a swagger? What is your purpose? ”
"I want to come back and overturn the case, I was wronged, damn it." Excited, Thomas lowered his voice and said to Nils.
"yes, don't get excited, man, how are you going to overturn the case? Do you have any new evidence? ”
"No, so, I'm going to try my luck."
Nils nodded, then shook his head again, "It's too risky to overturn the case through the fluke factor, and besides, the policeman named Andy is very happy about this matter, he thinks there is a big secret in it, and he also thinks that you have been wronged, anyway, I don't trust him, are you going to meet him?" ”
"I don't know, I think I should meet the guy named Andy, I want to know how many people can help him."
Nils nodded, "Do you have any plans for the future?" What are you going to do if that cop doesn't say it nicely? ”
"Who knows, anyway, you have to try your luck, I'll prepare first, I want to start from the source, I roughly know who is making trouble, but I have to find new evidence, it's the kind of evidence that kills with one hit."
Nils nodded, he was confident that his former comrades would be able to handle it all, "Tell me something, if I can help." ”
"Alright, Nils, thank you for your help again, I may not be meeting you for a while, I should hide it and use my own way to clear my name."
After a brief conversation, Nils continued the rest of the way, while Thomas turned and left the woods. On the way back, he was thinking and evaluating the matter of summoning Lilith, and preparing to find that Andy policeman, the future is too unknown, and the later development direction is beyond his estimate, since he can't estimate it, he should be more prepared.

Back at his quarters, he entered the door and saw Resley making breakfast in the kitchen.
"Hey, when did you go out? You should say hi to me, you're a wanted man now, have you forgotten? "Resley complained about Thomas's unauthorized behavior, and she took the 'wanted man' seriously.
"I'm sorry, Resley, I went to Nils, you know, I told you before, we can only talk to each other, I suspect his phone is being tapped, there's no way around it, I'm very careful." Thomas pulled something out of his backpack and placed it on the couch.
"Uh-huh, you can ask me to help you bring a message or something, how are you talking?" Resley waited for Thomas to continue.
"He said there was a police officer, the police officer in charge of my case, and he thought I was innocent, and he had been looking for me, so he went to Nils to give me a message, and I also wanted to hear his opinion, and if it really could help me, I would be quite willing to cooperate with him." Thomas said as he assembled the device.
"What if, it's a trap for the police?"
Thomas didn't stop, looking up at Resley, "So, we need to plan ahead of time, just in case, I need you to help me cover me if I get trapped." ”
Resley nodded and fell silent, "Where are you going to meet at the place you've prepared?" Supermarket? Mall? Or is it the market? ”
"No, I don't think those are the best spots, and don't forget, we're not just up against the police, but also against better equipped opponents than the police, after all, online surveillance is so widespread these days that maybe those killers will kill me before we even meet." Thomas made a motion to wipe his neck.
Thomas got his gear, connected to his phone, took out his business card and dialed the phone.
"Hello, that one?" Andy took out his mobile phone very lazily, Andy looked at the caller ID of the mobile phone was a 'unknown caller' prompt, his heart sank to explain two problems, the first was a harassing call, the second was a clue call, he slowly pressed the call button, he slowly put the phone on his ear.
"Officer Andy?" Andy hears a muffled electronic voice inside, and the voice is processed.
"Who are you?" Andy suddenly became serious, and the sensitivity of his profession told him that someone wanted to provide valuable intelligence without revealing themselves.
"I'm the one you're looking for." Andy's heart tightened when he heard this, and he immediately stabilized his excitement, this case was the first time to talk to a suspect, and he wanted to know more about the situation.
"Are you...... Thomas? Andy lowered his voice.
"I heard you want to see me?"
"Yes, I want to help you ......"
"How far can you help me?"
"I don't know, we have to talk, it's inconvenient on the phone, I found some unreasonable clues......"
"At 8 o'clock in the evening, on the second floor of the iron slag treatment plant in the old industrial area, you come alone, you can't be late." Before Andy could finish speaking, the other party forcibly interrupted him.
"Okay, at 8 o'clock in the evening, on the second floor of the iron slag treatment plant in the old industrial area, there is one person." Andy looked at the blind tone on the phone and repeated it again, Andy took the busy phone and thought for a while, and then slowly hung up the phone, he knew that Nils had brought the words, and he began to think about some of the questions he was going to ask, forming a sandbox in his mind to meet Thomas.

At night, a car with its headlights on on the avenue of the quiet old industrial area moves slowly on the bumpy road, and Thomas, with a telescope in one hand and a phone in the other, dials Andy's phone and directs his route.
Andy got out of the car, took out a flashlight from his hand, and then took out a gun from behind him, and slowly entered the factory, in a factory full of steel equipment and waste, the cold, dark, and empty place made the whole space look weird and terrifying, the sound of shoes rubbing the sand on the ground echoed in the factory, he slowly searched for a hint or direction, walked through a steel staircase, Andy shouted: "Hey, I'm here, where are you?" ”
The moonlight shining through the window made the area very bright, and from the dark shadow Thomas walked out slowly with his hands in his pockets, and the dark shadow slowly cleared The moonlight made his shadow long and thin, from his legs to his upper body to his neck.
Andy raised the gun in his hand and pointed it at the person who appeared from the shadow, and then shone the flashlight in the dark shadow's face, Thomas raised his hands, his eyes were very uncomfortable from the bright light of the flashlight, he squinted his eyes and said.
"Hey man, this isn't a talkative gesture, Officer Andy."
"Of course I'm here to talk to you, I'm also here to be safe, I don't want to rot in this place yet."
"Are you afraid I'll kill you here?" Thomas stretched out his arms, and he continued: "Don't worry, Officer Andy, this will never happen, if I think about it, you are dead when you come in, I am here with sincerity and honesty, I am not a murderer, I am very sane." ”
After hearing this, Andy slowly put down the gun in his hand and stuffed it into the pouch under his armpit, Thomas slowly walked out of the shadows, Andy had such close contact with the suspect in the case for the first time, looking at each other face to face, similar to what he imagined.
"Officer Andy, I heard from Nils that you are very curious about my case, and you are willing to help me clear my name."
"Well, yes, I need your cooperation to do it, I found that there are a lot of questions in the case, so, I want to know what happened to you that day?"
"I don't know......" Thomas took a cigarette from his pocket, lit it and tossed the case to Andy.
"What?" Andy also lit a cigarette and threw the case back.
"Yes, I was knocked unconscious when I was caught in the car from home, it was a policeman with a full beard, very fierce, a fat policeman like a pig, I think it was your colleague." Thomas shrugged.
"And where are you being taken?"
Thomas pointed behind him with his thumb, and Andy saw from behind him that there was an empty room, "That's it." ”
Andy tilted his head sideways and looked at Thomas in the dark room behind him, "You mean you were kidnapped by the police, and the police were killed by other people at the place of the crime, and then someone brought you here again in a coma, right?" Andy briefly recounted everything Thomas had said, and in a weighty tone, he pointed his finger to the ground and succinctly summed up everything Thomas had said.
"yes, that's all I can remember."
"Can you prove it?"
"I can't."
"What organization did it? Do you know? Let's say you see each other's badges, numbers, tattoos, ...... Or something that identifies you? ”
"When I woke up, I saw just a woman, she interrogated me, and she knew a lot about my past, my growth experience, service resume, operation code, and even my medical records, social security, consumption records, shopping records, etc., in short, I can't remember the details." Thomas interrupted some of the options Andy had given him.
"Just one person?"
Thomas was silent for a moment and nodded, "At least it was the one who interrogated me, and I saw those people before that." ”
Andy looked at Thomas the same, and then was silent, a person interrogated a retired soldier, there was no one, it should be tied very strongly, it was not easy to escape, so how did Thomas escape?
"Can you remember what that woman looked like? You can draw a portrait and I can help you. ”
"It should be possible, I can't guarantee the details."
"Okay, can you do it yourself, or will I send someone to help you?"
"No, I don't want to go to the police station now, it's dangerous for me......"
Andy was just about to ask a question, when suddenly, a figure appeared from behind Andy, holding a gun in his hand and shouting: "Police, raise your hands, you are arrested......"
Andy and Thomas were startled when they called this, Andy looked back, only to see Terry slowly walking towards Thomas with a pistol, and he was a little nervous and trembling, the general reaction of a novice, Andy was in a complicated mood, and he said to Terry in annoyance.
"Put down your gun, Terry. What are you doing here? Are you stalking me? Andy confronts Terry, who orders Terry to put down his gun and makes an irreparable mistake.
"I came with you, I think I should share it with you, head, you have GPS in the car, have you forgotten?" Terry looked at Andy, his eyes didn't dare to take off Thomas, for fear that he would disappear without a trace all at once, his fingers were always on the trigger, and he trembled a little nervously.
"Put down the gun, Terry, he's innocent. Do you remember? Andy lowered his voice, with urgency and an order for Terry to lower his gun.
"Yes, head, our accusation is to catch him, we can find evidence to prove his innocence, the specific trial depends on the judge's verdict."
"No, our duty is to figure out the ins and outs of the whole incident, we can't wronged good people, we are policemen, not accomplices of power, and now the court also wants to put him to death, you are ready for me to send an innocent person from the wolf's mouth to the tiger's mouth, I can't do this, put down the gun, Terry."
A pistol was pressed against the back of Terry's head, and for the first time Terry felt the cold muzzle pointed at his head, the hardness and coldness frightened him, he slowly raised his hands, and the man behind him took his pistol down, and pushed him in the back, and he rushed forward two steps.
Andy only then saw that it was a woman, and then the woman walked up to Thomas, looking at Andy and Terry who was half-raising his hand, and Terry looked very embarrassed at this time.
Andy looked at Terry next to him in embarrassment, and whispered sideways, "Put down your hands, you idiot, you look like a clown." Terry was as well-behaved as a reprimanded child, and slowly lowered his hand.
Andy was also very embarrassed, he was even more afraid that the suspect's originally relaxed nerves would be tensed again because of this, he didn't know if the veteran in front of him would suddenly put them here, "This is, my partner, his name is Terry, or a rookie who just graduated, he came following me, I swear there is absolutely no third person here, let's continue the topic we just had?" ”
Thomas nodded in response and said, "Okay." Anything else to ask? ”
"You just said that you were interrogated by a woman, why didn't she kill you? And how did you escape? ”。
Thomas nodded, "It's nothing surprising about this, the state trained me to survive from any disaster that might happen, and this little thing is nothing to me. Thomas snorted.
It makes sense, but it's nothing to him. Andy didn't doubt what he said.
