Chapter 18: The Dark Shadow

In the morning, many policemen came to the village, and together with the villagers, they searched for the body of the Jiuyang Daoist, and in the evening, the body was found in a puddle downstream of the river.

Director Zhang left with the police and the corpse, and I stayed at Lingling's house at night, waiting for Lingling to return.

At about nine o'clock, Director Zhang called me and said that he had sent two police officers to the village and asked me to cooperate and keep an eye on Li Ergou.

At 9:40, I saw a young man and woman in their early twenties, both dressed in ordinary clothes and riding in an electric car, at the door of Lingling's house.

These two people were the policemen sent by Director Zhang, and they had never seen them before.

The man's name is Zhang Hui, and the woman's name is Wan Jiali.

I took the two of them into the house, parked the electric car, and after talking, I learned that these two people were trainee police officers who had only been in the police station for more than two months.

What the hell is Director Zhang doing, sending two college students who graduated from the police academy?

It turned out that Director Zhang was also forced to do so, because the town police station was so person, and he had been investigating in the village for more than ten years over the years, and the villagers knew every policeman in the police station.

Therefore, Zhang Hui and Wan Jiali are the most suitable, and there is no other candidate.

The new identity of these two people is Manchun's distant cousin, and when they got the news, Manchun and Mangang had an accident, so they came over to take a look, of course, there is also a purpose, that is, for Manchun's inheritance, no matter how poor anyone's family is, they always have some savings.

The task of these two people is to monitor Li Ergou 24 hours a day, at night, near Li Ergou's house, and during the day, to follow Li Ergou.

Li Ergou is a very lazy person, and recently there have been deaths in the village every day, and Li Ergou rarely goes out and plays on the computer at home.

Li Ergou's home is four houses away from Lingling's house, and it is very convenient for us to move.

That night, the two of them changed shifts and lurked under the locust tree in front of Li Ergou's house, and there was no movement all night.

The next morning, I took the two of them to the village chief's house, and the two of them pretended to ask the village chief about Man Chun and Man Gang, as well as the situation of the family's inheritance, and deliberately passed on this information to make a full set of plays.

The village chief said that when Man Chun died, everything in the family, including the house and the pile foundation, should belong to Lingling, and Zhang Hui and the others said that Lingling was just an adopted daughter, and now she is still committing murder, and it should belong to them.

After these things spread, the two of them could live in Lingling's house in the name of righteousness.

For five days in a row, there was no news of Lingling, the phone was not available, Lingling did not return home, and there were no dead people in the village.

Zhang Hui and Wan Jiali work very hard, this case is very important to them, if the two interns solve the case, they can be turned into regular immediately, and they can even be promoted.

At about eleven o'clock in the evening of the sixth day, Zhang Hui was working in lurk, Wan Jiali and I were resting, I was just a little sleepy, suddenly, Wan Jiali received a phone call and told me that there was a situation.

I hurriedly put on my coat and rushed out the door after Wan Jiali.

Wan Jiali and I came to the door of Li Ergou's house, the courtyard door was empty, Wan Jiali put her fingers in front of her mouth, and made a silent gesture to me, the two of us were ambushed at the door one left and one right, Wan Jiali took out a baton, and I took out a dagger.

Now I don't know what the situation is inside, Zhang Hui asked Wan Jiali to ambush at the door.

A moment later, suddenly there was a loud shout from inside, "Where to go!" ”

Then there was the sound of glass breaking.

Wan Jiali shouted, "The situation is not right, come in!" ”

We rushed into Li Ergou's room, Li Ergou was lying on the ground, unconscious, and did not see Zhang Hui, Li Ergou's parents were awakened and came to the room.

Wan Jiali said: "Uncle and aunt, take care of the second dog, don't send it to the hospital." Ning Que, let's go! ”

The windows of the Western Wall were smashed by something, and the people apparently escaped from the windows!

Wan Jiali and I climbed through the window, behind the house was a large vegetable field, dozens of meters away, we saw a flashlight light swaying back and forth.

"Stop, stop!" It was Zhang Hui's voice.

I and Wan Jiali hurriedly chased after me, I grew up by the river since I was a child, stayed in the water every day, and my physical strength was excellent, and gradually threw Wan Jiali away.

Forty or fifty meters away, I saw Zhang Hui chasing a black shadow, the black shadow was extremely fast and agile, Zhang Hui seemed to be physically exhausted, and distanced himself from the black shadow.

The black shadow ran wildly along the path, in the direction of the port.

"Stop! Something happened, Li Ergou was killed, come out to catch the murderer! Zhang Hui yelled all the way, trying to alarm the sleeping villagers and block the black shadow.

I quickly caught up with Zhang Hui, Zhang Hui was out of breath, "Ning Que, it's this person who wants to kill Li Ergou, you must catch up with him!" ”

Seven or eight minutes later, the dark shadow was approaching the port, and I was followed by seven or eight villagers, chasing after me from a distance.

The black shadow ran straight to the river, apparently trying to dive.

"Stop, you won't be able to run tonight!" I gasped for breath and pointed my dagger at the shadow.

The black shadow is masked in black clothes, the whole body is tightly wrapped, only a pair of eyes are exposed, judging from the back, the body is thin, about one meter six or five tall, it is a woman.

The black shadow's physical strength seemed to be better than mine, only a little panting, and I ran fast for more than ten minutes in a row, my legs were weak, and my physical exertion was extremely great.

The black shadow ignored the pursuers behind him, ran to the port, and was about to dive into the water, when three figures suddenly appeared on several boats below, led by Director Zhang.

"The fish is finally hooked, I'll see where you run!" Director Zhang shouted, "Catch, catch her!" ”

It turns out that Director Zhang has been dormant here, and he takes people to hide here every night, and even I don't know about it.

The black shadow was startled, turned around and ran towards the path on the left, I immediately blocked the way of the black shadow, "You can't run away!" ”

The shadow didn't speak, but lunged at me with his fist, gritting my teeth and stabbing with a dagger.

The speed of the black shadow was so fast that it grabbed my arm and threw me to the ground at once.

I didn't expect that a woman would be so powerful.

The shadow kicked me in the lower abdomen, swept past me, and continued to rush forward, desperately trying to escape.

I got up from the ground, clutched my stomach like a knife and continued to chase, and Director Zhang and others chased after me.

I said, "Director Zhang, why don't you ambush here?" To ambush on a ship? ”

Director Zhang said, "There is no cover in the port, only the boat parked in the water can hide people, not hide on the boat, where to hide?" ”

Director Zhang is also right, this path is a forest a hundred meters away, and it is too far to hide in the woods.

We ran as fast as we could, the shadow was so fast, she was obviously familiar with her surroundings, knew how to shake us off, knew how to run away.

The banks on both sides of the harbor are seven or eight meters high, and they are covered with barbed wire, so it is impossible to jump into the river, but inside the woods, you can jump on that side, and it is obvious that the black shadow is trying to escape from the river.

Seeing that the black shadow had already burrowed into the woods, and we still couldn't catch up with the black shadow, Director Zhang suddenly took out a gun from his waist and shouted, "Stop!" One last warning, if you don't stop, I'll shoot! ”

From beginning to end, the black shadow didn't say a word, and Director Zhang finally shot.

Bang bang bang!

Director Zhang fired three shots in a row, and the black shadow in front of him snorted, was shot, staggered, and limped into the woods.

When we rushed into the woods, the shadows had disappeared without a trace, and there was a pool of blood on the ground.

We chased after the bloodstains, and a policeman next to us said, "Director, the distance was so close just now, your marksmanship is not accurate." ”

"You know a!" Director Zhang scolded, "We want to arrest the murderer alive, do you want me to beat the murderer to death?" Now she has been shot in the leg and can't go far! ”

"Chase!"

After we chased for more than thirty meters, the blood on the ground disappeared, the footprints also disappeared, the woods were full of weeds, and the black shadows disappeared without a trace.

Hell, how the hell did the Black Shadow escape? Why didn't it leave a trace?

Director Zhang said: "Spread out and search, you must find someone!" ”

"I was shot twice in the leg, I was seriously injured, I definitely can't go far, and I can't go down the river, I will drown in the river, and I will look for it along the woods!"

The three of us began to search from three directions, and Director Zhang began to call for support.

The forest is very large, all the way to the south of the mountain, the crops planted by the villagers are on this plain, the original is the mountain, the mountain road is rugged, there are no people living in the mountain, the Yinyang River is around the Yinyang Mountain.
