Chapter 73: Li Ke's obsession

"Didn't you say it," Xiao Ning scratched his hair impatiently, "There are obviously obvious murderers, why do you want to work on these two people?" ”

Sending away the crazy Daoist Feng, Bao Xiaoyan came to the interrogation room.

The answer to the same question she gave was obviously clearer: "That day, when the little girl arrived at Huitou Cliff, she found a gold mine, so Lao Feng scared her away, when she ran, she looked very frightened, she stumbled when she walked, and we were afraid that it was because we caused her to commit suicide, so we concealed it." ”

"That's it?" Qian Hao raised his eyebrows.

"Also," Bao Xiaoyan took a deep breath, raised her head and said, "We are afraid of being brought back by you, in fact, in addition to Huang Yining, there are traces of another person under the cliff, and we want to dig up the gold mine as soon as possible." ”

"In vain," Xiao Ning sneered in the monitoring room, his eyes fell on his fingers, and he said lightly: "The so-called "gold mine" in their mouths has actually been excavated a long time ago, even if they dig it all up, according to the time and investment, it is only equivalent to a monthly salary of 1,000 yuan." ”

"Xiao Ning!" Li Ke exited unhappily and signaled, "This is the police station." ”

"Of course I know this is the police station," Xiao Ning turned his head to look at the silent Zhou Qing, and said with a straight face: "What?" What do you see? Are these two people murderers? ”

Zhou Qing's emaciated Adam's apple slid a few points, and before he could speak, Xiao Ning suddenly raised his hand and deliberately made an expression of forgiveness, "Okay, let me go." This is the statute of the police department, and the rules are the rules. Surely you're going to say that, right? This kind of efficiency is a waste of taxpayers' money. ”

"Then you say, who is the murderer?" Li Ke was afraid that Zhou Qing would be angry, so he rushed to Xiao Ning and said urgently.

Smiling disdainfully, Xiao Ning walked quickly to the computer, his fingers jumping on the black keyboard like a butterfly wearing flowers, and after a while, all the videos taken by Li Ke before appeared on the screen.

"It's him." The tone of understatement, but Zhou Qing and Li Ke's eyes moved over, and both of them were dumbfounded, their faces full of disbelief.

"How so?" With wide eyes, Li Ke stared at Xiao Ning's face, as if he was looking at someone from another world.

A faint laugh sounded, Xiao Ning seemed to be very satisfied with Li Ke and Zhou Qing's astonishment, and with a tap of his fingertips, the video returned to when Zhou Qing and the others first arrived at Wangdai Mountain.

"Team Zhou, the reason why you kept looking at your legs on the rickshaw that day was actually that you had already noticed it, right?" Xiao Ning asked softly.

Nodding in surprise, Zhou Qing's throat was a little blocked.

"What did you find?" Li Ke was still puzzled.

Without waiting for Xiao Ning to speak, Zhou Qing's eyes lowered, and he explained in a deep voice: "Lao Zhu is a disabled person, although he can walk very steadily even if he carries me, but in fact, his left leg is a prosthetic. The first time I saw him, I could see it by the discordant movements. ”

"Besidesβ€”this." With a click of the mouse, information about Huang Yining and the two deceased people ten years ago appeared on the screen, and Zhou Qing and Li Ke looked at it with stunned faces.

Huang Yining and the two deceased both had a disease in their left leg.

"This is the motive for the crime," Xiao Ning's voice became deeper, "It may be a little absurd, but it is true that someone will kill people because of it." ”

Zhou Qing and Li Ke didn't say a word, but their hearts loosened at the same time.

"As for the key clues, here's it." Lao Zhu's hand appeared on the screen, Zhou Qing's pupils were dilated, and Lao Zhu's fingernails were nothing else, but the black mud wrapped in the so-called gold mine.

"The language keeps leading you to Daoist Feng and Bao Xiaoyan, but he doesn't mention that he has been to Huihui Cliff, even so, you haven't noticed it, it's really disappointing."

After Xiao Ning finished speaking, Zhou Qing fell silent, he was right, he was indeed disturbed by Lao Zhu's mutilated limbs.

"But," Li Ke noticed that something was wrong, scratched his head and said: "You have already discovered this clue, I remember when you said that there was a contradiction." ”

"That's right, but today he showed a flaw," Xiao Ning showed a smile on his lips, but it didn't reach the bottom of his eyes, "When I saw you, his face first showed horror, and then he disguised a hearty smile, but the words in his mouth exposed him again. ”

Li Ke was at a loss, but Zhou Qing's eyes lit up, and he said to Xiao Ning in a deep voice: "I'll arrest him now." ”

Zhou Qing left, Li Ke remembered it, and suddenly realized: "At that time, we were obviously going down the mountain, but he asked us if we wanted to take the car, and he was panicked!" ”

"Hmm." Nodding tiredly, Xiao Ning looked at Li Ke, and a burst of guilt suddenly rose in his heart.

He not only investigated this incident at home, but also investigated the "Wu Baiwei" in Li Ke's mouth, the once famous reporter.

When he was only 18 years old, he published many articles in well-known newspapers and magazines, and then was admitted to Princeton University, which is famous for its excellent journalism majors.

Wu Baiwei died, and the official explanation was that he committed suicide by jumping off a building.

At what point would a rising young man choose to commit suicide? Xiao Ning was reluctant to accept this answer.

Presumably, Li Ke, who is Wu Baiwei's younger brother, is also unwilling to accept this answer.

"What do you see me doing?" Li Ke noticed Xiao Ning's burning gaze and touched his nose embarrassedly.

"It's okay, let's go," put his hands in his pockets, Xiao Ning walked a few steps, suddenly turned around and said, "Let's solve the case together in the future." ”

"What do you mean?" Li Ke's footsteps paused, stunned.

"You're so stupid, if it's just like this, you don't even know how to solve the case, right?" The mocking words came from the front, and Xiao Ning's hand in his pocket tightened slightly.

Over the years, Li Ke has been investigating the truth about the cause of Wu Baiwei's death, since he has such an obsession, the most important thing he should do is not to directly intervene in the solution, but to let him have the ability to find out the real culprit behind it himself.

The night covered the land, the autumn days were gone, the cold air of early winter made the cold breath exhaled in the mouth turn into white mist, and a pale meteor suddenly crossed the frozen sky.

In the cold and dark sewers, the broken limbs wrapped in crimson color slowly flowed, and the rotting eyeballs still stared uncomfortably at the strange space around them.

Suddenly, a piece of carrion prematurely terminated its drifting career, and the cold temperature turned the water into thin ice, and time seemed to stand still in this underground world.

Click, click.

In the forgotten corners, garbage, flesh, and sludge slowly pile up to keep each other warm.
