The sun is scorching, the asphalt street, soft, like a layer of black oil, in the morning, the sky is clear, the morning glow is full, and the sun has gilded everything.

The whole city was like a burnt brick kiln, making people breathless, and the dog lay on the ground and spat out its bright red tongue.

How lonely it would have been if it weren't for the high-pitched sonata of the string musician in the scorching summer sky, when the branches of the trees were not moving, and even the geese and ducks gathered in the shade.

Peng Liyao, Song Zhenqiang and Lin Liexiao sat in the office, eating barbecue and drinking beer.

The summer rain fell on the earth, rolling up a puff of light smoke, and the land seemed to bloom into a laughing nest.

Although it had rained outside, it was still very hot and the temperature dropped slightly.

"It's most comfortable to blow the air conditioner in summer." Lin Liexiao squinted his eyes and enjoyed it, fortunately Peng Liyao didn't want to go out to eat, otherwise they would have to bask in the sun.

"That's for sure, it's not stupid to go out in the summer, of course it's indoors." Song Zhenqiang gave him a blank look, not knowing how his brain grew.

"Well, should I tell you that I may need to go out tomorrow to find clues, and it's very likely that I'll be out for a day." Peng Liyao said weakly, and now the temperature outside discouraged him.

On the evening of June 2, 2018, the client's wife called, and the audio file 0820180602 (2) .wav

"Silk Silk"

"Hello, is this Detective Peng?"

"Yes, who are you?"

"My husband asked me to call you and say you have some questions for me."

"Oh, yes, I have some questions for you, after all, when he goes to work, only you know what happened at home, right?"

"Yes, he usually goes straight to work during the day, and I take care of everything at home."

"I have a few questions here that you need to answer."

"Does it have anything to do with what happened to my husband?"

"Yes, since there are no clues right now, I would like to ask you some questions, and you can tell me everything you can think of."

"Okay, you ask."

"Thank you for your cooperation, first of all, I want to know, what happened before your husband received the doll with a severed hand?"

"What do you mean?"

"It's whether a stranger comes to your house to look for someone or ask something."

"This, I think about it, it seems that there is, someone came to my house to find someone before, but there is no such person in my family at all."

"Okay, do you remember what they were wearing?"

"This, I remember, was a suit, and I was curious to ask why someone would wear a suit on a regular basis."

"And after that?"

"When I said no, they left."

"Did you see them since?"

"No, I haven't seen them since then, as if they hadn't been here before, so I'm curious about what happened."

"Okay, what's going on outside of the first time?"

"In addition to this, well, I think about it, it seems that there is no more, by the way, I have received some couriers before, but I asked the person who sent the things, and they didn't send it, but I don't know who sent it until now."

"Still don't know?"

"I don't know, I really don't know this, so I suspect that it was sent by someone who was looking for trouble with my husband, but I didn't find any evidence, so I can only forget it."

"Okay, I see, is there anything else?"

"Yes, yes, I've received some mysterious phone calls, but I don't know who called."

"Is the phone number still there?"

"Yes, yes, I'll pass those phone numbers to you when the time comes."

"Okay, thanks."

"By the way, something strange is happening near our house."

"What's the matter?"

"That's right, we've had some strange people coming in and out of our house lately, and they're all people I haven't seen before, I asked him, and he said it's okay, but I think it's weird."

"What's strange?"

"Every time I go in and out, they're looking at me, and they don't seem to live here."

"Don't live there?"

"Yes, not living here, so I'm a little worried about my safety and that of my kids."

"Well, I think about it, if you don't mind, you can bring the child to me, I'm safe here, and I'll keep you safe."

"Okay, I'll talk to him later."

"Well, remember that you have to keep yourself safe first."

"We will."

"Then let's get to know it for today, and I'll talk about the rest until I have a little clue."

"Okay, good night then."

"Good night."

Information collation on June 2, 2018:

1. The client received a courier last year, and inside was a doll's severed hand.

2. When the client's wife was at home, someone knocked on the door to look for someone, but neither the client nor his wife knew the person who was looking for him.

3. The client and his wife received an unknown courier, but it is not known who sent it.

4. There are many strangers around the place where the client's wife now lives, and they will also keep an eye out for the client's wife coming in and out.

The weather in the middle of June was hot enough, and at three or four o'clock in the afternoon, it was the most unbearable time of the day, the road was scorched and hot, and the feet stepped down, and the air was hot and stuffy, as if a match could be lit

In the evening, there is a little sea of clouds in the Yellow Mountain, which sets off the dazzling sunset. The slowly sinking sunset, with a kind of sad poignancy, did its best to burn the surrounding sunset into blood red.

The sky is very clear on a summer night. The sky was full of stars, crowded together on the blue canopy, blinking their eyes, as if they were quietly discussing something interesting

The moon, like a lonely boat sailing in a sea of clouds, shines a faint silver glow through the clouds from time to time to the valley.

Song Zhenqiang asked Peng Liyao who put down his mobile phone curiously, because Peng Liyao didn't want to go out, so they ordered takeout to eat, "What did she say?" ”

"There's not a lot of information, and there are some things that you have to meet with them to find out, so I don't know what to do now, so I can only wait for them to come here." Peng Liyao said helplessly, there is still no clue about this matter, so you still need to think about it.

"Are they ready to come over then? Didn't you say that the commission fever couldn't be said before? Lin Liexiao said, since this is the case, then the client must come over.

"Now I guess there is no way, and there seem to be some problems on the client's wife's side." Peng Liyao nodded and said, this matter can only be done now, if they don't come, then he may not be able to find other clues.

"No, what if they don't live there? Is it possible to live here? Lin Liexiao looked at Peng Liyao in surprise, and when he saw him nodding, his heart was half cold.

Song Zhenqiang was also a little helpless when he saw Peng Liyao nodding, "Liyao, we are not a refuge here, it is not good for you to let them live here." ”

"There is no way to protect the client's safety, so we can only agree." Peng Liyao said calmly, there is nothing wrong with the client living here.

Hearing Peng Liyao's words, Song Zhenqiang knew that he had no way to persuade him, "Okay, I'll stay here with you, so that at least it's safe, and we won't have anything to do with the rest." ”

"Yes, I know, thank you." Peng Liyao nodded to Song Zhenqiang, knowing that he was worried about his safety, but his tasks often put him in danger, and he had long been used to it.

"Then I'll bring food over every day, anyway, someone will handle the affairs of the studio." Lin Liexiao said to Peng Liyao with a smile, he knew that Song Zhenqiang attached great importance to Peng Liyao, so he naturally had to protect Peng Liyao.

"Thank you." Peng Liyao said to Lin Liexiao that he knew that this matter had nothing to do with them, but they were willing to help him, which was already very good for him.

"No thanks, just protect yourself." Lin Liexiao said, in fact, he didn't tell Peng Liyao that in addition to helping him because of Song Zhenqiang's relationship, there is also a relationship that is his ability, which is rare for him.

"I know, you don't have to worry." Peng Liyao said that he still had to solve this matter as soon as possible.

After dinner, Peng Liyao was ready to start processing his documents, and Song Zhenqiang and Lin Liexiao naturally stayed.

"What do you know now?" Song Zhenqiang looked curiously at the documents put down by Peng Liyao, all of which were recorded by Peng Liyao according to what the client said, and they didn't know the rest.

"The client's wife said that someone had come to look for someone, but the description did not resemble the client, so I don't know who it was." Peng Liyao put down what he had recorded earlier and showed them it.

"What about the person Feng Linhan said?" Lin Liexiao asked Peng Liyao, now only Feng Linhan among them had seen people in that organization, so his words were a very important benchmark.

"I'm not sure, I just said I was wearing a suit, and I don't know the rest." Peng Liyao Yaoyao, now I don't know anything except those people wearing suits.

"Well, alright." Lin Liexiao also seemed to feel Peng Liyao's helplessness, this matter was indeed very troublesome.

"I suspect that it has something to do with the man in black that other clients said before, but I can't be sure yet, and it could be someone from that research institute, there are too many possible things now, so I don't dare to make a conclusion." Song Zhenqiang said his guess, but he didn't know much now, so he couldn't be sure who it was.

"That's true, after all, the client hasn't been here, and if they want to show up, they should be able to confirm something." Song Zhenqiang nodded thoughtfully, now there is no client to come and look at the photos, and there are some things that they can't determine.

"That's right, so we have to wait for the client to change his mind." Peng Liyao sighed weakly, hoping that the client would change his attention as soon as possible.

Peng Liyao thought of the question he had been curious about before, this question was the strangest question he was now, "Who did you say that mysterious organization was formed, why did they appear here, and why did they gather so many supernatural people." ”

Song Zhenqiang looked at Peng Liyao, and he also wanted to know the reason for this question, "We don't know this question either, take your time, one day we will find the answer to this matter, right?" ”

"Jingle bells." Peng Liyao's mobile phone rang, and when he saw that it was the number of the previous client, Peng Liyao immediately picked it up.

"Detective Peng? Tomorrow I will take my wife and daughter to you, and I hope you can keep them safe. The client said that since his wife told him about the recent situation around them, he felt that it would be better for them to go to Peng Liyao's side.

"Okay, I'll be waiting at the door of the office tomorrow, don't worry, I'll protect them." Peng Liyao said firmly, he would definitely not let what happened to Feng Linhan happen to them.

"Thank you." The client said with emotion that he was going to find his wife and daughter tomorrow, and he hadn't seen them for almost a month, and he didn't know how they were doing.

Seeing Peng Liyao hang up the phone, Song Zhenqiang asked Peng Liyao curiously, "How is it?" ”

"The client will send his wife and daughter over tomorrow, and I'm going to tidy up the break room tonight." Peng Liyao said, Song Zhenqiang and Lin Liexiao nodded, ready to help Peng Liyao later.

The city is brightly lit, without any dilapidated appearance, full of colors, and countless urban prosperity. The streets are lined with shops of all kinds, and the night market is bustling with people, and it seems that business is doing well.

Peng Liyao, who was ready, stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window of the office and looked at everything in front of him with emotion, there are many things in the world in the dark that he doesn't know yet, but one day, he will let them appear in the sun and be known by everyone.

The next day, the sun finally showed its face on the horizon like a dazzling shrine, and the morning light woke up the sleeping earth through the dawn sky. A new day is coming.

Peng Liyao was woken up by the ringtone of his mobile phone, and the voice on the phone was a man's panicked voice, "Detective Peng, my wife and children are gone." ”

"What? Where are you now? Peng Liyao asked the client in surprise, and called Song Zhenqiang up, the development of this matter was somewhat beyond his imagination.

"I'm at my wife's maiden house, but I can't find them, and her phone is at home, everything is at home, but I can't find them." The client said anxiously, Peng Liyao felt that something was not quite right in this matter.

"You send me the address, and you wait there, and I'll come right over." Peng Liyao said, Song Zhenqiang heard this, and also understood that they were going out now, and Lin Liexiao, who was woken up, looked at them suspiciously.
