Chapter XVIII: Old Cases
A lazy voice came from the high wall, followed by a dark shadow jumping down from above.
As soon as I wanted to make a preemptive strike, I saw that it was Qin Pei who jumped down.
How did he get here?
When I was stunned, Qin Pei walked straight up to me and reached out and took my phone.
"It's me."
"Your little comrades were rescued by my people, let's deal with it."
"Okay."
I didn't hear what Lao Ding said, but Qin Pei hung up the phone in a few words, and then he threw the phone to me and said, "Come with me." ”
Gu Man and our comrades were saved by him? That was my first thought, and I still don't suspect that he would follow.
This Qin Pei's ear power is very good, before the person arrives, the sound arrives first.
But I definitely can't get over the wall now, so he took me another way, back to the Deyang Street in the ghost market.
I was asking him questions along the way, such as whether Gu Man was already safe, and whether the black shadow was caught, but he didn't say a word from beginning to end.
It wasn't until we returned to the ghost market and met Gu Man on the corner of the original street that I was relieved that she was safe.
In addition to Gu Man, there were two other comrades in the bureau, as well as Wang Zhengqing.
At this time, Wang Zhengqing just tightened his tie, and there was a black-robed man lying at his feet, but his body shape was not the short and fat man in the melon skin hat before.
"Are you alright?"
I got close to Gu Man, she was slightly injured, and her sleeves were torn off in her casual clothes, which made her look a little embarrassed.
She shook her head and told me that the black-robed man was going to kidnap her just now, and they had a fierce fight, and in the end, the two comrades of our bureau failed to subdue it, but were robbed of the gun, and finally Wang Zhengqing appeared and got rid of the black-robed man.
I went up to see the appearance of the black-robed man, but Wang Zhengqing stopped me: "Don't look at it, it's already dead." ”
"Dead?"
I was stunned, how could I die, for such a short time, and I didn't hear any gunshots.
"He died of poison." Qin Pei spoke, but he was still lazy: "Tell you to have a forensic autopsy and extract the components of their intestines and stomach for a test." ”
I am a regular step, I nodded, or squatted down to look at the black-robed man, he really had a totem tattoo on his left arm, but now his skin is snow-white, and the dense blood vessels are clearly visible.
This poison is...... I seem to have heard my grandfather talk about it, but I just can't remember it.
"There was another person on the other side of the wall just now, who should be their leader, and he ran away."
I stood up, and then my body shook, and I almost fell, Gu Man hurriedly came over to support me, and asked me if there was anything wrong with concern, I shook my head, saying that it was just a little out of strength, but in fact, I felt that my body was getting more and more wrong.
Qin Pei didn't seem to care: "Run, run, the monk can't run the temple." ”
I shook my head: "No, now the temple is also gone." ”
For the first time in history, Qin Pei's face became serious, whether it was inquiring about the case, investigating physical evidence, and just now, he looked lazy, as if everything was under his control.
But when I said that, his eyes lit up.
"Lost the Conjuring Banner?"
I nodded: "The comrades of the Physical Evidence Section were demoted, fell into the evil spirit, and took the things out and handed them over to the people of this organization. ”
As he spoke, I pointed to the totem: "Our director can't contact you, so I went out with Gu Man to investigate this matter." ”
I'm putting the blame on Qin Pei, although this is not worth advocating, but if the Conjuring Banner is really important, he should bring it back for safekeeping.
There must be a monk behind this matter, and the personnel in the mysterious totem organization are all good hands, but it can be seen from the fact that the one lying on the ground who committed suicide by poisoning directly after being captured can be seen that their organization has an iron-like strict law, and there must be a bigger conspiracy behind it.
So let's take care of the Conjuring Flag, it was a wrong decision from beginning to end, even if I carried it with me, I didn't dare to guarantee that it wouldn't be exploited.
"You hand over the person to the forensic examiner, and I will leave the rest to me, and I will go to your bureau tomorrow afternoon to get the report."
"Wait a minute."
Just as Qin Pei was about to leave, Wang Zhengqing suddenly stopped him, then looked at me, frowned and asked, "Did you fight that person?" ”
I nodded yes, and as soon as I finished speaking, it was dark in front of my eyes.
When I opened my eyes again, it shouldn't have been long, it was still dark around, and I could still hear the sound of the market, and Qin Pei and Wang Zhengqing, as well as Gu Man and our comrades, all looked at me anxiously, and when they saw me slowly open their eyes, their brows relaxed.
"If you can still pick up a life, count yourself lucky."
It was Wang Zhengqing who spoke, and he immediately stood up, and Gu Man also helped me to stand up.
"What's wrong with me?" Even though I woke up, I still felt weak.
It's the kind of consciousness that is very clear, and I even feel like I can exert my strength, but when I clench my fists, Tesuji seems to be disobedient.
"You ......" Wang Zhengqing was about to say, but I noticed that Qin Pei gave him a look, so he quickly changed his words: "It's just that I'm tired, that person still has some ability, give you this, eat one when you don't have the strength." ”
As he spoke, he threw me a small box-like thing, and I quickly caught it.
I don't know what it is, but when I opened the pill box, there were a dozen small dark red pills inside, and there was a clear fragrance.
"Thank you, but do you want to leave a contact information, we ......"
Before I could finish my sentence, Qin Pei and Wang Zhengqing crossed the high wall and left.
It's the road outside, do you have to walk the wall? I looked depressed, but I also reflected from the side that their skills were indeed good, and they met the standard of fighting against Fangshi.
Especially Wang Zhengqing, I know Gu Man's skills, and the two experienced comrades, both of whom are elites in the bureau, and the black shadow that the three of them couldn't catch together, was robbed of the gun, and then Wang Zhengqing solved it alone.
I haven't seen Qin Pei make a move, but it must not be too bad.
Gu Man wanted to call Lao Ding, but there was no signal, I glanced at my mobile phone, and there was no signal, but there was still outside the high wall just now.
"Let's go out and fight, the magnetic field here is disturbed."
After I explained, she nodded, and I asked the two comrades to stay here and look at the corpses, and then walked out of the street corner with Gu Man.
called Lao Ding, and he said that he would send someone over soon, so Gu Man was relieved.
"Zhang Yao, those people ......"
She stopped talking, thinking I wouldn't tell her, so she gave up on the plan.
I said it's okay, you ask, it's not something in the confidentiality agreement, as a case officer, you have the right to know the truth.
"What kind of organization are those people? Committed suicide by taking poison, too... Extreme, right? ”
I shook my head and told her I didn't know what kind of organization those people were.
"But I can tell you something." Seeing that although her expression was entangled, she should still be able to bear it, I continued: "If you dig deeper into this case, you will find more things that will make you jaw-dropping, unless you tell Lao Ding now that you quit, otherwise ......"
"Is it more terrifying than the case of the Mass Investigation Team?"
I nodded: "It's a thousand times more terrifying, but in fact, it can't be described as terrifying, this case doesn't belong to our system, can you understand what I mean?" ”
What system do we have? The criminal investigation department of the public security system is responsible for handling major criminal cases, robbery, and murder, and last year Lao Ding also led a group of old comrades to crack a bank robbery case 10 years ago.
This is our system, and the skills that every colleague in our bureau has learned from the police academy are used to solve these intractable problems.
But this case, it is not an incurable disease, it is a terminal disease.
Since I was a child, in addition to hearing and seeing some physiognomy feng shui, I also heard my grandfather tell those strange things, I don't know if he experienced it personally or hearsay, but even so, when dealing with this case, it still made me confused.
Gu Man is a smart person, I have read her file, and her grades in the police academy are even better than mine, with her desire for the truth, she should be able to understand the meaning of my words.
"That's... Those two people? She thought for a moment and reorganized the language: "That... Will they investigate the case from more than a decade ago like we did? ”
I couldn't help but frown, Gu Man had something to say, and I looked at her suspiciously.
"That's it...... If there was a case from more than ten years ago, something like this, would they re-investigate? ”
I realized that this may be her secret, the case more than ten years ago, the departments in our system will continue to restart the investigation, but Qin Pei and them, I really don't know.
Thinking of this, I shook my head: "I'll help you ask, but you have to tell me something, or...... You go and ask for it. ”
"You can help me ask." When she said this, she was like a little girl, and she looked up at me with a complicated expression, not knowing whether to meet me or not.
Maybe I should tell her, it's okay, don't worry, I won't tell anyone.
But in the end, I held back, and the decision not to tell me was always with Gu Man.
"With ......," she said slowly, "related to my father, other ......"
"Okay, I see, I'll help you ask."
Seeing that she was a little squirming, I didn't wait for her to finish speaking, and directly interrupted her words, rather than letting her be so entangled, it was better to wait for her to sort out her emotions and take the initiative to confess when she was ready.
Besides, when I mentioned her father, I thought of what Lao Ding said.
Gu Man's father was Lao Ding's comrade-in-arms, and he died early, so he should have died in the line of duty, otherwise Gu Man would not have asked that.
If that's the case, it's an old case.
But the reason why this is the case is even more difficult to deal with, Lao Ding has only solved a bank robbery case more than ten years ago, if Gu Man's father's case is so easy to solve, will he, an old comrade-in-arms, come forward?
Gu Man pinned his hopes on Qin Pei again, which proved that this old case might involve some strange things, in this case, Qin Pei might really be able to help.
The question is, will they help? I don't have a bottom in my heart.
Soon, Lao Ding's side arranged for a vehicle to come and move the body of the black-robed man away, and the body will be handed over to the forensic doctor tonight, and the autopsy will be performed overnight, and the inspection report will be handed in before tomorrow afternoon.
At the same time, Gu Man and the two comrades also made notes, but they still hid some key information, and Lao Ding's side, I told the truth, and I told him everything that happened.
After listening to this, the expression on his face began to become solemn.
