CHAPTER XXVI

Gray skies, bustling crowds, and cold air are extraordinarily thin; Pieces of sparkling flowers fell from the sky and fell on people's skin, and a piercing pain welled up in the heartβ€”it was snow.

The world outside the window is white and bright, and the world inside the window is dim.

Gao Feng's face was pale, his expression was gloomy, and the other people in the conference room also had different expressions.

"Let's talk about it, what should I do about it?"

It was Deputy Director Gao who broke the long silence, and after the mayor was threatened, Gao Feng immediately convened an emergency meeting, but from the beginning of the meeting to now, it has been about half an hour, and no one has spoken, and no one can even hear the sound of breathing......

"Dumb?" Gao Feng glanced at everyone, and finally landed his eyes on Xu Yang's face, Xu Yang also just raised his head, and the eyes of the two collided.

"Deputy Director, I think we need to ensure the safety of the mayor first at the moment...... The last time the murderer also threatened the victim, the result was ...... So this time, the mayor's safety should be guaranteed first, no matter what! Xu Yang lowered his head and said.

"Well, it's true that Lu Xuan has more brains than Lu Xuan......" Gao Feng nodded.

"High Deputy Bureau, in fact, the Marine team ......"

"Today we are not discussing Lu Xuan's problem!"

Xu Yang wanted to defend Lu Xuan, but was directly interrupted by Gao Feng, Gao Feng actually knew what kind of person Lu Xuan was, but it was not suitable to comment on him now, because there was a bigger headache at present.

"What about this case? You can't give up the investigation because of this, if the murderer can't be caught, then it will be even more disadvantageous to the mayor! Gao Feng said worriedly.

Xu Yang didn't know what to do, because the most important thing now was to go all out and mobilize all the police forces to protect the mayor; However, if you do this, you will not have the time to continue the investigation, but if the two things are done at the same time, in case something goes wrong with the mayor...... At this moment, Xu Yang is really in a dilemma, he can't help but think of Lu Xuan, Lu Xuan will definitely not joke with the mayor's life, but what will he do?

"That's it, Xiao Xu, I will personally command the task of protecting the mayor, and you and your task force must catch the murderer for me as soon as possible! Otherwise, once something happens, none of us can afford to take this responsibility! Gao Feng weighed the pros and cons of the whole case, because the murderer had openly threatened the mayor, the matter was already extremely serious, so he had to put on his old bones in person.

Xu Yang is really grateful that Deputy Bureau Gao can personally command, which really solves his problem, so that he can concentrate on finding clues and find out the real culprit as soon as possible.

"Xiao Feiyi will come with me." Xu Yang came out of the meeting, his head was not tilted, and he walked straight to the door.

Li Fei and Yi Yi glanced at each other suspiciously, and thought in their hearts: "Go in such a hurry, where are you going?" Looking around, Li Fei suddenly understood, and came over and grabbed Yi Yi and dragged him out......

In the car, Li Fei held the steering wheel and looked ahead intently, Xu Yang tilted his head out of the window, looking intently into the distance, as if thinking about something; And Yi Yi, while rubbing his wrist that was caught red by Li Fei just now, glared at Li Fei fiercely, and thought in his heart: "Bastard! Will you die if you are gentle with others? ”

"Brother, what are you thinking?"

Xu Yang retracted his gaze, turned his head, looked ahead, thought for a while and said, "I'm thinking about the reason for the accident of the land team......

"Got eyebrows?" Li Fei asked in surprise.

Xu Yang didn't speak, didn't react, just kept looking into the distance.

"What do you think the killer wants to deliver this time? What does the killer want us to discover? After a long time, Xu Yang turned his head to Li Fei and asked rhetorically.

Li Fei frowned slightly, thought for a moment, and shook his head: "What do you think?" ”

Xu Yang touched his chin and said seriously: "I combined the previous murder case and had a bold speculation, but there is an extreme lack of evidence......

"What speculation?" Yi Yi asked.

Xu Yang turned his head again, looked into the distance again, and slowly shook his head: "Lack of evidence, I can't say it yet." ”

The three of them walked into the door of the television station, and met the person in charge of the noon news that day, none of them stopped, they kept moving forward, he passed them; His voice was small, but they still heard the phrase "incompetent policeman".

"What did you say!" Li Fei turned around and was about to rush up to beat him, but was grabbed by Xu Yang, and the person in charge didn't look back, and kept walking forward; Xu Yang's hand firmly clasped Li Fei's shoulder, and it was not until Li Fei calmed down that the three of them continued to walk towards the live broadcast hall.

In the live broadcast hall, the information technology team was still busy searching for clues, but judging from their gloomy expressions, they seemed to be unable to weigh and compete with this murderer, and Xu Yang naturally did not have much hope. The director also stood motionless and stared at the computer monitor lined with dense characters, although her expression was as calm as water, but her heart was extremely afraid, even if she was capable, what happened not long ago made her difficult to escape, who made her the director.

"Team Leader Xu, I can't trace the source."

Xu Yang looked at the messy display screen, and expected this to be the result, so he nodded, waved his hand back, and signaled that the technician could leave.

"Comrade policeman, what's going on?" The director walked over and asked.

"It's a murderer we're working on." Xu Yang said.

"That'...... Is it really like what it said in the news that day? The director asked worriedly.

Xu Yang looked at her, glanced at the ground again, and then said slowly: "There is a serial murderer, but, judging from the clues we have so far, this murderer's murder is indeed purposeful and targeted, not the so-called random killing." ”

"The mayor ......"

"Comrade Director, you don't have to worry about this, as long as the murderer doesn't threaten you, everything is OK, and the mayor will deal with it with the police." Xu Yang said calmly.

Out of the TV station, the snow fell more tightly, and most of the city was covered with white, hazy distance, not real, but aroused infinite curiosity, hoping to explore the faint answer.

Xu Yang took a deep breath, and the cold air poured into his nasal cavity, entering his body, stimulating every organ of his body, and making his faint brain immediately sober up a lot.

"Brother, what should I do next?" Li Fei looked at the snow scene in front of him blankly.

Xu Yang raised his head, let the snowflakes fall from the sky on his face, and said, "Let's go to the mayor's office and have a look......

Syllable!

Yuan Haitao slapped the table fiercely, stood up and pointed at the noses of Gao Feng and a room of policemen and scolded: "What do you people eat?" It's been so long and I can't catch a murderer! Is there a royal law now? Even the mayor dared to threaten! Do you people still have the face to stand here? ”

Gao Feng's face was pale, and the mayor's thunderous anger had already shocked him: "The mayor is angry, we will definitely do our best to catch the murderer's ......"

"Then go get it! What are you doing here? Waiting for me to invite you to dinner? Yuan Haitao yelled at Gao Feng.

"This ...... Now we need to keep you safe......" Gao Feng said tremblingly, that look is no different from a mouse seeing a cat.

Syllable!

Yuan Haitao slapped the table again, and said angrily: "What are you protecting me for?" Do I need someone to protect me when I'm my age? If you catch the murderer, do I still need protection? ”

A series of rhetorical questions overwhelmed Gao Feng, and he was speechless for a while.

"But...... The last time the killer threatened a victim, and then the victim was killed right under our noses...... Mayor, we must keep you safe, or the whole city of X will be in chaos! Gao Feng said with a crying face, hoping that Yuan Haitao could understand his good intentions; When Yuan Haitao heard this, he couldn't help muttering in his heart: "That's right, I definitely can't have anything!" Besides, if the murderer was really that easy to catch, there wouldn't be so much trouble...... It's okay, just let them guard me, at least one more protection, and the murderer won't dare to ...... me."

Thinking about it, he sat down slowly, his lips closed, and kept thinking; Gao Feng didn't hear Yuan Haitao's words, he didn't move, he cautiously raised his head and glanced at Yuan Haitao, seeing his expression, thinking that he really understood himself, he couldn't help but raise his hand to wipe the sweat beads on his forehead, and breathed a long sigh of relief, and his nervous heart was also relaxed.

At this time, Xu Yang opened the door of the office, followed by Yi Yi and Li Fei, and the people in the office heard the movement on the door, and immediately took out their pistols and waited for the door, all of them like taut strings. Xu Yang and the three of them walked in, and when they saw the posture in front of them, they couldn't help but be stunned, startled, and Yi Yi exclaimed with an "ah"; The people in the room were relieved to see the person clearly, and they all put away their guns. Xu Yang also came back to his senses and walked towards Yuan Haitao.

"Mayor, Deputy Director." The three of them saluted Yuan Haitao and Gao Feng.

"Mayor Yuan, Xu Yang is specifically in charge of this case......" Gao Feng said.

"I know. I hope you came to tell me that the case has eyebrows......" Yuan Haitao stared at Xu Yang intently, his face full of hope; But Xu Yang's face was very calm, and he said lightly: "I'm sorry mayor, I disappointed you, I'm here to do some investigation." ”

Yuan Haitao was indeed disappointed, and his face darkened a lot. "Say, what are you going to investigate?" He asked without any intonation.

Xu Yang looked around for a moment, and then said in a non-sensitive tone: "Let's answer some of my questions first." How long have you been mayor? ”

Yuan Haitao stretched out his hand, pinched his fingers and calculated, "It's been about fourteen years." ”

"Fourteen years...... So has there been anyone in the past fourteen years who can't get along with you, or...... Did you ever have a conflict with anyone before you became mayor? Xu Yang asked.

"What do you mean? I, Yuan Haitao, have been in politics for so many years, and I have always been close to the people, honest and ......" Yuan Haitao suddenly became excited, Xu Yang interrupted him very calmly: "Mayor, you misunderstood, I mean it is likely that someone will retaliate against you, you have to understand us, we need to eliminate the impossible situation step by step......"

Yuan Haitao twisted his head to the side and stopped looking at him; Seeing that Yuan Haitao didn't answer his question for a long time, he asked again: "Mayor, have you ever had a grudge with anyone?" ”

Yuan Haitao turned his head abruptly, and just wanted to scold, but he swallowed the words back hard, turned his head again, and said "no" in a tough tone.

Hearing such an answer, Xu Yang's eyes suddenly narrowed, and his gaze became extremely sharp; However, it was only a matter of a moment and no one noticed......

Then, Xu Yang squeezed out a far-fetched smile, and his attitude turned gentle: "Mayor, thank you for your cooperation, it seems that the murderer has nothing to do with you...... You can rest assured, we will definitely catch the murderer, and please cooperate with Deputy Director Gao, he will definitely lead the elite to protect your safety! ”

That's it? Everyone was stunned, Yuan Haitao also turned his head and looked at him with an incredulous expression, what kind of medicine is sold in this Xuyang gourd?

"Mayor, deputy director, I'm going to investigate the case first!" After speaking, he left with Li Feiyi, leaving an intriguing back for everyone......

Yuan Haitao looked at Xu Yang so arrogantly, he really hated it to death, "Go out, I want to be quiet!" He said gloomily to the people in the office.

"But ......" Gao Feng hesitated.

"But what is it! All of them are standing at the door, this is the tenth floor, I don't believe that the murderer can still fly the eaves and walk the wall; With you guarding the door, what are you afraid of? Seeing that Yuan Haitao was about to get angry again, the group hurriedly retreated, and Gao Feng thought dissatisfiedly: "How embarrassed did you just say that you are close to the people......"

Xu Yang sat in the passenger seat, still staring out the window into the distance, and thought in his heart: "If that bold assumption is not wrong, the murderer will definitely come...... It's time to verify, Marine, and I'll do you justice......"

Fang Mingshan answered the phone, and his face gradually showed embarrassment: "This ...... Not good......"

I didn't know what the other side said, Fang Mingshan's face immediately showed a determined expression: "I understand, don't worry." ”

Hung up the phone, helplessly filled his eyes, and then, his eyes were eroded by the murderous aura.
