"Gao Cheng? Are you out there? "The inquiry went out and got no answer, was it him? Quiz me again? I'm not sure. Turning around, his eyes fell on the large dried bloodstains, and suddenly he felt a creepy feeling.

"Okay?" A low inquiry came from behind, and he turned around to see Gao Cheng coming down from the entrance. His gaze fell fixedly on his face, not letting go of any change in expression, and when he got closer, he asked, "Did you come in just now?" ”

His gaze that was about to turn to the side suddenly stared back to my face, "What happened?" I looked at him for another two seconds, indicating that it was too difficult to observe something from his face, so I reluctantly compromised: "You just bring up the content of the test, I can't guess." ”

When the words fell, his eyes turned cold, "Has anyone been here?" Before I could react, the figure flashed, and the man disappeared at the entrance. This sudden change came so suddenly, I didn't even know what was going on, I got up with my hands on the ground, my feet were a little numb because I had sat cross-legged for too long, and I could only stand there for a while and wait for the tingling sensation to fade.

The sound of footsteps was approaching rapidly, and Xu Jianglun looked down from above, "Xia Zhu, are you okay?" ”

It was very inexplicable to ask, "What can I do?" ”

"Gao Sir just said that people will come and watch you, and no one is allowed to set foot in this basement."

I can't help but be confused, what the hell is he doing? At this time, my feet were no longer numb, and I wanted to go out to see what was going on, so I leaned over to get the painting on the ground, and when I was halfway bent down, I suddenly paused, and my eyes fell on the painting I had made with my eyes closed.

Is this what I just drawn? I couldn't help but look up at the remnant wall again, close my eyes and open them again, how could this be?

At this moment, there was a voice from the entrance, and I turned around just in time to see Gao Cheng entering, and he was followed by the trace inspector. As soon as he turned around, he shouted: "Stand there and don't move." And he was not in a hurry to come over, the trace inspector took out his tools and squatted on the ground to search, and the path was straight from the entrance to me.

Seeing this, I couldn't help but ask, "What's wrong?" He shook his head faintly, but did not speak.

Seeing this, I didn't want to ask any more, so I waited for the trace inspector to probe my feet and straightened up, "Gao sir, there are no special traces left, there are many footprints, basically they were left by my colleagues before, and it is difficult to identify." ”

Gao Cheng's face was a little secretive, and he suddenly beckoned to me: "Come here, go up and talk about it, let them here." ”

When I followed him to the top, I asked the question in my heart: "Really wasn't you who came in just now?" ”

After all, I wasn't the original rookie, and his series of unusual behaviors couldn't have been deliberately set up to test me, and I couldn't think of a reason for him to test me at this murder scene. So there is only one explanation, that the person who interrupted my painting was not him.

"Describe how it felt."

I thought about it for a moment, and then I told the story of the situation. But the more he listened, the more he frowned, and said in a voice so low that only the two of us could hear, "Here he is." ”

was stunned, and quickly reacted, "You mean that person is the criminal policeman investigating the case here?" That should be fine. ”

He looked down into my eyes: "Fear is the most intuitive response of human beings to external dangers. There was still a remnant of fear in my eyes as I approached you, and if it hadn't been for me, it could have been that you sensed danger a moment before I came in. And you just said that when you were painting a shadow, there was an intrusion that made your pores feel a chill, do you know what it is? ”

I shook my head, he narrowed his eyes slightly, and said in a low voice: "Murderous." ”

Stiff all over, that guy wants to kill me?! "Why?" How did I become a target to be killed?

Gao Cheng's eyes converged on the drawing paper in my hand, and my heart was shocked: "Because of this painting? Then he shook his head again and again, "No, no, it can't be, if the person who came in was a criminal police officer as you said, how could he kill me?" You must be mistaken. Or, will there be someone hiding in the shadows? ”

Gao Cheng pursed the corners of his lips: "Murderous aura does not mean that murderous thoughts must arise, there is a kind of person who wants to achieve a certain goal with a murderous aura. Or, the murderous aura that the other party makes you feel is a warning he wants to convey. As for what you said about the fact that someone else is hiding in the shadows, it is impossible at all, the whole house is surrounded by guards, and it is only a few minutes before you ask a question and turn back, and it is impossible for the other party to leave, and if there is still a hidden place, then I can only say that it is a fool. ”

At this time, Zhang Jixing walked briskly in a hurry, and I remembered that I hadn't seen him when I came out just now, and when I got closer, I saw him with a cold face: "The carpet search has been conducted, there are no suspicious elements in the house, and there are no suspicious traces around the house." What the hell is going on? ”

Gao Chengzhao laughed, his eyes shining: "Team Zhang, it seems that you have to clear your subordinates first." ”

Zhang Ji's face suddenly darkened, "Sir Gao, I don't understand what you mean." Gao Cheng sneered: "Call all your people for questioning." Zhang Ji didn't move, there was anger in his eyes. I saw that this situation was about to tense up again, and hurriedly went to pull the corner of the city's clothes: "Forget it, I'm fine." He lowered his eyes and looked at me, but when he raised his eyes again, his mockery was even stronger: "If my apprentice is threatened with his life while helping you solve the case, but he cannot face it, I will immediately terminate the cooperative relationship with your police station." ”

Zhang Ji's cold gaze turned to me, and he asked, "What happened?" ”

I repeated the events in the basement with a slight hint of obscurity, under his forced gaze. Zhang Ji's face became more and more cold, and when he turned his head to look at Gao Cheng again, my heart was raised, but I heard his tone lower by half a degree: "In this way, the message is not afraid of startling the snake?" ”

When it made me impressed, I always felt that Zhang Ji was cold-faced and extremely stubborn, even if he seemed to be convinced by Gao Cheng before, it was only because he had the name of "Cheetah", and in actual action, he was still paranoid and stuck to his own way of handling cases, and he didn't completely buy Gao Cheng's account, at most he obeyed on the surface.

Who would have thought that in this matter, he would change his paranoia so quickly and think from the point of view of the matter itself.

Even I could see that Gao Cheng looked at him with shallow appreciation, the sarcastic arc of the corners of his mouth was also gone, his eyes flashed, and he said lightly somewhere: "What I want is to startle the snake." ”

Within ten minutes, almost all the criminal police officers present had gathered together. Zhang Ji asked with a cold face: "After clearing the basement, who will be the last to leave?" Everyone's eyes fell to a certain place, and Zhang Jihan said: "Remove Gao sir." ”

About half a minute later, a short detective stood up: "It seems that I am at the end." ”

Zhang Ji stared at him: "Which piece are you responsible for after you come out?" ”

The criminal police replied honestly: "Aqiu and I are responsible for searching the east room on the second floor. At this time, another criminal policeman stood beside him, and scratched his head slightly embarrassed: "Head, yes, just now I was searching for evidence in the room on the east side of the second floor with Dwarf Dong." ”

Zhang Ji did not continue to ask, and asked each criminal police officer to report the results of the search for evidence one after another, and in the end, there were a total of nine criminal policemen in the room, divided into five upstairs and four downstairs, each in a team of two or two responsible for an intensive search for evidence. Since Gao Cheng had previously proposed to clear the basement, no one approached the entrance again, and Gao Cheng and Forensic Doctor Chen stood at the other corner of the stairs to exchange autopsy reports on that side, resulting in a blind spot during that time.

These are the messages I got after listening to the relevant reports and summaries of the criminal police. Originally, I felt a little sorry for working so hard for me, but seeing Gao Cheng standing by his side expressionlessly from beginning to end, his eyes seemed to fall lightly on the faces of each criminal policeman, but in fact, there was a secret light in his eyes, and he couldn't help but get nervous in his heart when he saw the details of their behavior when they came out of the ranks, right...... Is that person really one of these people?

Zhang Ji did not make it clear, and after everyone finished reporting, he ordered everyone to continue to collect evidence. After the others dispersed, he looked back at Gao Cheng, "Is there an answer?" Gao Cheng did not answer and asked, "What do you think?" ”

Zhang Ji's usual solemn tone was calm: "I believe in my subordinates. ”

Gao Cheng smiled lightly, "Then you still let them explain their whereabouts during that time?" ”

"Because I respect your professionalism." Zhang Ji paused and then said: "Gao sir, we are indeed inferior to you in terms of decryption of behavioral logic, but we are criminal investigators, and we pay attention to everything and speak with evidence." Some imaginary behavioral reasoning is better based on evidence to be more convincing. With that, he turned around, but paused again, "Besides, they may be inconspicuous little characters to you, but to me, they are brothers. ”

Zhang Ji walked to the basement entrance, and soon his figure disappeared underneath. I turned my eyes to look at Gao Cheng, this was the first time that someone had spoken to him like this, and even the director of the sub-bureau was respectful to him, but Zhang Ji could be said to have refuted him coldly. But Zhang Ji's attitude was not provocative, it was purely a matter of facts, he was defending his subordinates.

I whispered nervously, "Are you angry?" ”

Gao Cheng raised his eyebrows, "Am I such a stingy person?" I wanted to nod yes, but remembering that he had just touched a cold dice and burned it on me to prevent fire, I still chose to shut up and be silent.

After being silent for half a minute, I heard Gao Cheng change the topic and ask, "How is the painting on the wall restored?" ”

After he reminded me, I suddenly remembered this, and immediately trotted to him and spread out the drawing paper, swallowing my saliva before saying, "You see, I don't understand why this is happening." He looked up and looked down, his eyes dark, "Sure enough." ”

I was amazed and asked, "Do you already have the answer?" But why is it Tong Ziqi? ”<
