The time was three o'clock in the morning.

Xiao Ning didn't feel sleepy, so he just kept lying on the bed, quietly waiting for dawn.

As the fish belly turned white, the city began to gradually become lively, and the criminal police brigade also came to work one after another.

The first thing Zhou Qing did when he arrived was naturally to come over to see Xiao Ning's condition. He can't get out of bed by himself now, and there is no one here to take care of him, and he will get up so early for him.

Seeing that Xiao Ning was still lying on the bed, Zhou Qing felt relieved, and stepped forward to hold Xiao Ning's arm, "Get up, I'll help you in a wheelchair." ”

Xiao Ning stood up with his hand, and then said a little weakly: "I had a dream last night. ”

When the words fell, Zhou Qing's hand also followed, he sighed and smiled bitterly, "I thought that nothing would happen until the end of the year, but I didn't expect it to be unlikely." Tell me, what are you dreaming about? ”

Xiao Ning frowned slightly, "To be honest, I don't know." ”

His dreams have always been very abstract. If it was a case that had already occurred, he might be able to guess something. But now there is no case at all, even if this dream is Xiao Ning, there is no way to infer it.

Zhou Qing thought for a while, "You can say it casually, maybe I can think about it with you." ”

Xiao Ning did not hesitate any longer, and described his dream in as much detail as possible.

After listening, even Zhou Qing was confused, and guessed for a long time: "Since you talked about human skin, is this another case of skinning?" ”

Zhou Qing has so many years of experience in handling cases, and the human skin case has really been encountered more in the past two years. In the past, the psychopathic murderer liked to directly chop off his hands and feet, or take out his organs. There are even people who like to gouge out their eyes and collect people's eyeballs.

This seems to be more perverted and more cruel. But like skinning, in the eyes of the police, it is the most terrifying.

This kind of criminal generally has an extremely high psychological quality, not only does not feel afraid or panic about killing people, but even enjoys it extremely much.

And it's not easy to completely skin a rabbit, let alone a person.

Peeling is time-consuming and labor-intensive. The murderers who can really do all this must be very terrible people.

In the past two years, I don't know if it's because of too fast development or too much pressure. More and more perverted murderers, like weeds, shovel one and soon another pops up.

Xiao Ning thought about it, but nodded, "It should be a skinning case, but I don't know what form it takes." ”

He vaguely felt that his dreams were different from the previous ones, he couldn't see the dead, he couldn't feel them, and the whole ground turned into human skin, and finally even wrapped him completely.

Xiao Ning was the only one who couldn't figure out the last point, why, he actually felt warm in his dreams?

In the past, his dreams may have sounds and touches, but this is the first time that he feels the temperature.

This temperature must be a very important reminder. But he couldn't think of this hint at all.

What to do?

There's only one way, and that's to wait for this case to happen. But every time a case happens, it means that there will be another deceased.

But the dream has already appeared, and the dead have already appeared, but no one has found out, and they are still hidden by the criminals.

With the help of Zhou Qing, Xiao Ning sat in a wheelchair. Zhou Qing pushed him all the way out of the office and to the bathroom.

Looking at the somewhat pale emaciated cheeks in the mirror, Xiao Ning simply washed his face with water, although his hands kept moving, but his mind was still thinking about today's dream.

In fact, he didn't wait long, but it was just afternoon.

Zhou Qing suddenly received a call from the police, a very young girl called, her voice sounded very panicked, and she seemed to be experiencing something extremely terrifying.

Zhou Qing stood up almost instantly, thinking that someone who was being killed had appeared.

But the girl's next sentence made everyone confused.

"My coat! My coat! ”

Zhou Qing frowned slightly, "Girl, you take a deep breath, relax, and describe in as much detail as possible the situation you are encountering now." If it's critical, you can report your address directly and we'll send someone right away. ”

There was just a low sob, and then he hung up the phone, as if the caller was just playing a prank.

Xu Xingteng took a big sip of soy milk and said indifferently: "Could it be a mental illness?" ”

The performance of the woman on the phone just now is indeed not much different from mental illness.

Zhou Qing has always been a very cautious person, even if it is just a wrong call, he must figure it out. If there really is a victim, it is likely to save the next person's life.

What's more, Xiao Ning had just finished talking about his dream today, maybe there would be something related to it.

Just when Zhou Qing asked people to investigate the source of the call, Xiao Ning pushed his wheelchair from the direction of the bathroom. The broken hair on his forehead was still dripping with water, and the sunlight projected from the wide window was just refracted on it, making his skin even more pale, and the blue and red capillaries could be faintly seen.

Xu Xingteng handed him a bag, which contained two steaming buns, "Boss, I called from a nervous department just now, and I kept talking about my coat." ”

Overcoat?

Xiao Ning's brain was like a flash of lightning that exploded violently.

Isn't the human skin that suddenly wrapped it and the warm heat proving that maybe it's just a piece of clothing?

Perhaps the human skin, which has no end to touch, and is even connected to the earth, is simply a piece of clothing, and only in this way can the situation in his dream be explained.

Xiao Ning looked at Zhou Qing, and his tone was rare serious and low, "Team Zhou, go check on this person." ”

If it was said by other police officers, maybe Zhou Qing would have to think about it, but from Xiao Ning's mouth, he would definitely not take it lightly, and it could even be said that he attached more importance to it than his own decision.

He nodded immediately, and at the same time called the team members, "Find out where the phone number is as fast as possible, and then the two teams will set off with me." “

Half an hour later, after getting the exact location of the alarm call, Zhou Qing immediately led the two teams to set off for the destination.

Xiao Ning also set off with him, but Yin Zetai was the only one who couldn't withstand the bumps because of his more serious injury, so he stayed inside, but he was extremely dissatisfied in his heart. In the past, when there was a mission, he was always the first to go, but this time he became a left-behind person.
