Chapter 58 Jack the Ripper Reappears (13)
"How so?" Fang Xinling looked at Xu Jingshen incredulously.
"We did catch the real Night, but we allowed a murderer who was even more terrible than the Night to escape abroad."
"Worse than the night!" Fang Xinling said in surprise.
"That's why I agreed to Interpol to go there in the first place, and I wanted to close the case myself."
"Have you caught the killer now?"
"He's already been electrocuted."
"That's good." Primer Fang Xin exhaled.
"But the biggest credit for being able to catch him is not me."
"How is that possible? Brother Xu, you are so powerful. Fang Xinling said in disbelief.
"Foreign countries are his base camp, and he has his eyes everywhere, and the police force that can be called upon by me is limited, and the preliminary investigation is even more difficult because he is in a foreign country." Xu Jingshen recalled the scene when he first went abroad, and there was a strong sense of powerlessness in his eyes.
Fang Xinling was silent.
"Do you know who takes the most credit?"
"My dad?"
"It was because of your father's help that we were able to locate his whereabouts and arrest him, thus avoiding a terrorist attack that had been brewing for a long time and saving hundreds of lives."
"How come I've never heard my dad mention this?"
"So as soon as I heard Cheng Feng say that you have the ability to talk to animals, I guessed that you must have something to do with him."
"Brother Xu is looking for me, do you have any questions you want to ask me?"
"I do have a question for you, do you know where your father is now? I came back to see him, but I couldn't get in touch with him. ”
"My dad disappeared, just three years ago."
"Missing? How can it be? Xu Jingshen said in surprise.
"It's true."
"Do you know why?"
Fang Xinling shook her head, and what her father had told her suddenly flashed in her mind.
- Some things still have to be faced no matter how much I try to avoid them, and some separations have to be endured no matter how much I don't want to.
- Xinling, stop it, don't get involved in this case anymore, you can't fight them.
- It's not a question of whether it's dangerous or not, you can die, you know? Silly girl.
- Break up with him as soon as possible, he won't live long.
Do you want to tell Xu Jingshen about her father's contact with her? Fang Xinling was in a struggle, she faintly sensed that Xu Jingshen might be investigating her father, the truth hidden in her heart but unwilling to face, so Fang Xinling still chose to keep silent.
"Xinling, do you know why I suddenly looked for your father?" Xu Jingshen's face slowly sank.
"Why?"
"A month ago, there was a serial murder case in Wencheng, and the chief of the Wencheng police, Ning Yanjun, who was my wife's best friend for many years, died while investigating the case."
Xu Jingshen's voice did not fluctuate, but there was a faint sadness from the depths of his heart.
Fang Xinling was silent.
"He is a retired special forces, and he is still a black belt in taekwondo with marksmanship, and we all concluded that he must have collided head-on with the murderer, and he left us one last clue before he died."
"What clues?"
"He left us three and a half words with his bloody fingers."
"Three and a half words? What is written? ”
"According to the analysis of handwriting experts, the word that Yan Jun has not finished writing should be a person, and it is connected - he is not a person!"
"How- how did you leave this sentence?" Fang Xinling was shocked beyond measure, and looked straight into Xu Jingshen's eyes.
"This is also something I have been unable to figure out, what happened to Yan Jun before he died? Let him do his best to leave this sentence as well. ”
"Brother Xu went back to Liancheng this time to investigate this matter?"
"Yes, I must catch the murderer of Yan Jun." A hint of determination flashed in Xu Jingshen's eyes.
"Brother Xu, are you called Yan Xiu-" Fang Xinling suddenly remembered that Yan Xiu had said that this was a secret investigation, if Xu Jingshen knew that Yan Xiu had told her about this without authorization, maybe she would scold Yan Xiu, and she didn't want to have any contact with Yan Xiu anymore, so she immediately shut up.
"What's wrong with Yan Xiu?"
"It's nothing, but Brother Xu, do you think this serial murder case has something to do with my father?" Fang Xinling's heart was suffocated.
Xu Jing looked at Fang Xinling quietly.
Time goes back five years.
"Uncle Fang, thanks to you, we were able to catch the murderer and avoid a tragedy." Xu Jing looked at Fang Zheng with deep gratitude in his eyes.
But Fang Zheng's face still had undissolvable sorrow, and he looked out the window silently.
"Xiao Xu, do you really think I'm a good person?"
"Of course, you've saved hundreds of lives, and they're all grateful to you."
"Do you believe in the saying that natural selection survives the fittest?"
"Why don't you believe it?"
"Is there a permanent fittest?"
"Uncle Fang, why did you suddenly ask such a strange question?" Xu Jingshen frowned.
"If one day there is a more advanced race than humans, their technology is more advanced than yours, their abilities are stronger than yours, and they come to seize the earth's resources with humans, who do you think will win?"
"I don't know, but if there is a day, I'm sure everyone will fight for it."
"I love this world very much, I love the people in this world, and I hope they can live happily. But I will still be on the opposite side of them, and the outbreak of conflict is inevitable, it is an inescapable fact, it is only a matter of time. There was a faint sadness in Fang Zheng's eyes.
"Uncle Fang, I am getting more and more confused when I hear your words, as if you are not a human being."
"I'm not." Fang Zheng smiled slightly.
Xu Jingshen was immediately stunned and looked at Fang Zheng incredulously.
"Xiao Xu, if one day we really become enemies, you don't want to show mercy."
"Uncle Fang, what do you mean?"
"Like you said, go for it, win or lose."
What Fang Xinling expected was once again confirmed in Xu Jingshen's words.
"Xinling, have you never heard anything your father say?" Xu Jingshen asked.
"No, he never told me that." Fang Xinling shook his head.
"Then let's talk about it today, let's go find Chengfeng, don't let him wait for a long time."
"Okay."
"Xinling." Xu Jingshen called out to Fang Xinling.
"Brother Xu, is there anything else?"
"If one day you are willing to tell me, you can always come to me."
Fang Xinling's face immediately changed.
After saying goodbye to Xu Jingshen, Li Chengfeng didn't ask Fang Xinling what Xu Jingshen talked to her about just now.
"Chengfeng, aren't you curious?" Fang Xinling couldn't help but ask.
"I believe in Brother Xu, and I believe in you."
Fang Xinling looked at Li Chengfeng and was speechless for a long time.
At this time, a strange call suddenly hit Fang Xinling's mobile phone, because Fang Zheng had also called her like this before, so Fang Xinling hesitated for a while and then answered the phone, and then said anxiously: "Chengfeng, Uncle Wu wants to see you for the last time, and the doctor has already given him a critical illness notice." “
Although Li Chengfeng's emotions were well controlled, Fang Xinling still saw the vibration in his eyes.
Liancheng Hospital.
Wu Qi lived in the best presidential ward in the hospital, and the benches in the corridor were full of directors of Yunqi Real Estate, but it was so quiet that it could be heard.
When Li Chengfeng and Fang Xinling walked through the corridor, they attracted their frequent attention.
"Chengfeng, are you here? Come on in, your dad is still waiting for you. The middle-aged man guarding the door saw Li Chengfeng, smiled with relief, and hurriedly urged.
Li Chengfeng walked into the ward first, but found that Fang Xinling did not follow, and turned his head to look at her suspiciously.
"I'm not going in, I'm waiting for you outside."
Li Chengfeng hesitated for a while, then raised his feet and walked towards Wu Qi's hospital bed.
"Miss Fang, thanks to you this time, I was able to contact Chengfeng in time." The middle-aged man said gratefully.
"It's fine." Fang Xinling looked at Li Chengfeng's back intently, with a sad expression.
There were only three people in the huge ward.
I haven't seen him for more than two months, Wu Qi's whole person is like dehydrated, he has lost a lot of weight, his eye sockets are deeply sunken, and there is no trace of blood on his face.
Hearing the sound of approaching footsteps, Wu Qi slowly opened his eyes, and his dull eyes suddenly had a glow.
"It's the wind." Wu Qi called softly.
Wu Li'er and Yun Yun, who were sitting on Wu Qi's left side, saw Li Chengfeng The moment they saw it, their eyes were cold.
"Come, sit here." Wu Qi stretched out his hand and patted the position on his right, his eyes full of love.
Li Chengfeng did not confront Wu Qi this time, but sat beside him obediently, with a complicated look in his eyes.
"I admit that I am not a competent father or a competent husband, I can only be regarded as a successful businessman, I am sorry for you and Xinran, and I am sorry for Yun'er and Li'er, I have done too many wrong things, I don't expect you to forgive me." Wu Qi glanced at Li Chengfeng, then at Yun Yun and Wu Li'er, and sighed, "But I hope you can promise me one thing and get along well in the future." ”
Li Chengfeng touched Yun Yun and Wu Li'er's gaze, but quickly avoided it.
Their reaction was also expected by Wu Qi.
"Chengfeng, you blame everything on me, anything is coming at me, don't continue to investigate, let it pass." Wu Qi suddenly held Li Chengfeng's hand.
Li Chengfeng's face changed greatly when he realized the deep meaning of Wu Qi's words, and he stood up suddenly, wanting to break free of his hand, but Wu Qi's strength was surprisingly great, and he held Li Chengfeng tightly, not like a dying person at all.
"You know the real murderer who killed my mother! It's her, right! Li Chengfeng pointed at Yun Yun and roared.
Yun Yun's face suddenly turned pale, her eyes looked at Li Chengfeng in fear, and Wu Li'er's eyes widened in surprise and looked at him incredulously.
"Li Chengfeng! Don't slander people! My mom can't—" Wu Li'er retorted anxiously.
