It was the heaviest rain of the summer.

A black sedan braved the rain and drove among the mountains. On one side of the road, there is a river drenched in mud and foam.

The two wipers swayed desperately. The raindrops continued to hit the car glass, making circular watermarks, and then they were immediately swept away by the windshield wipers, leaving no trace at all.

Ren Qiuling looked nervously at the road ahead, observing the road conditions in front of her while checking the direction. At this moment, several stones of various sizes fell from the cliff on the left, jumped across the road like children in school together, and then jumped into the muddy water of the river - this section of the gravel and mud mountain had absorbed enough water, and could no longer bear its own weight, and was about to collapse!

Ren Qiuling pursed her lips and slammed the accelerator to the end, and the car spewed out a puff of green smoke and rushed across this road. There was a "whoosh" sound of rocks crashing from behind the car. When Ren Qiuling looked back, she saw that a hill of earth and rocks had been piled up not far behind the car, and it was still growing taller and wider—the highway had been completely blocked.

This is the fourth time that Ren Qiuling has encountered such a dangerous situation today. She swelled with a sense of joy for the rest of her life, smiling and turning on the music. At this moment, a man with long hair shook off and walked onto the road! In the sound of the rain, he did not hear the sound of the car.

Ren Qiuling instinctively honked her horn - her car was very close to the long-haired man - her mind was blank, and she had no idea what she was doing.

The man looked back and saw that the car had not moved.

"Freeze reaction!" Of course, Ren Qiuling knows that when people encounter danger, they don't choose to fight or flee at the first time, but have a motionless time, which is the freezing reaction. Now even she was in a freezer reaction, her whole body stiffened, her muscles tensed. When she thought about stepping on the brakes, she heard a loud "bang" and saw the man fly upside down...... Then, the car made an unpleasant braking sound and stopped.

"I hit someone!" This voice sounded in Ren Qiuling's head, and then another voice sounded: "Hurry up and escape, no one will see it anyway!" She shook her head, banishing the thought of running away from her mind, then picked up a leather bag from the seat next to her, opened it, and saw that it was divided into several layers. Her fingertips pulled open a compartment and she could see lipstick, moisturizer, and other things inside. She pulled out another compartment, and there was her aunt's towel in it...... She finally found the layer where the money was placed, and it was not much, about a thousand yuan. She grabbed the money, thought for a moment, and then put half of it back in her purse, and then thought that she had left only two hundred-dollar bills in her hand, and put the rest back in her purse.

At this time, she suddenly saw the man who had been knocked into the air clenching two fists and walking towards the car with angry sparks flashing in his eyes.

Ren Qiuling gasped, "What kind of monster is this?" Didn't die after such a collision? She grabbed a pistol from her purse and pinned it to her waist, then opened the car door and walked over to the man.

"Sir," Ren Qiuling said, "Are you hurt?" All I have is this money, so take it and check it out!" "As long as the person does not die, then it is a matter of compensation. Ren Qiuling knew that she was poor, and she couldn't take out hundreds of thousands of dollars and throw them in that man's face to tell people to get out, so she had to talk to others, and she had to pretend to be pitiful with others.

The man glanced at Ren Qiuling, then lowered his head and let his long hair cover his eyes.

"Flashing eyes! He knows me and loves me so much! Ren Qiuling exclaimed in her heart.

The so-called flash eye is the kind of eye that when you see someone you like, not only your eyes will dillate, but also your pupils will also dilate. The time for this kind of look to appear is about one-eighth of a second, and if it weren't for Ren Qiuling's special training in this area, she might have missed this detail. This is an eye that cannot be faked, and even the most talented actor cannot disguise this look.

However, Ren Qiuling was completely unfamiliar with that man's face.

The man was shirtless, showing solid muscles, and he could be on the cover of a magazine with that flesh alone. But now he's covered in mud, like a melting sand sculpture, so it doesn't feel so threatening. His long hair was completely unkempt, mud and grass were sticking to it, and it was very messy - Ren Qiuling's instinct was that this was a vagabond.

No matter why this man didn't crash to death, Ren Qiuling was not interested in having any intersection with a homeless man - even if the other party liked her. "Please take this money!" She shrank back behind the car and raised her hand holding the money again.

"Hell! The old lady is drenched in the rain! She thought, "Hurry up and get the money out, I want to get back in the car and get warm!" ”

The man glanced at the money again, then slowly turned and walked towards the river.

"He's insane!" Ren Qiuling judged. Although this is a homeless man with neurological diseases, it is also a life, Ren Qiuling shouted: "Hey, don't go down the river, it's dangerous!" "Of course, her kindness ends here, and you ask her to come up and pull the homeless man, but she refuses.

As if he hadn't heard her, the homeless man walked step by step into the murky water. The river roared and pounced on him, and he didn't seem to be too afraid, still walking towards the center of the river step by step. First his feet were submerged in the water, then his waist, then his chest, then his neck, then his head.

Ren Qiuling stared blankly at the scene in front of her, a life was swallowed by the river in front of her eyes!

She looked at the river and hoped that a miracle would happen, that the man could pop up somewhere, pull a branch or something, and slowly climb up. However, the river was still muddy yellow and foaming at the water.

Ren Qiuling shuddered suddenly-she really called the rain soaking, and she really had to go back to the car and blow off the heater, otherwise she would catch a cold. When she grabbed the handlebar, she still glanced back.

This glance froze her again.

In the middle of the river, the man's hair fluttered like weeds, and then a head popped out of the middle of the hair—and the man walked with a firm step towards the sand dunes in the middle of the river. His head was out of the water, then his chest, then his waist, then his legs, then his feet.

The man walked up to the sand dune, turned to face Ren Qiuling and sat cross-legged, suddenly looked up at Ren Qiuling, and said one word: "Get out!" ”

Through the roaring river and the rain curtain for days, the word still clearly reached Ren Qiuling's ears, making her angry for no reason, pulling the car door and jumping into the car is a foot on the accelerator.

The car drove farther and farther, but Ren Qiuling still looked back at the strange man. The guy sat on the dune, motionless like a rock, nothing special.

People who drive a lot know the truth that it doesn't rain everywhere on a rainy day. When Ren Qiuling's car drove to Jinshui Town, it was a sunny day. The people at the town police station received her, called her an "expert sent by their superiors", changed her into a dry uniform, and invited her to a meal. It's not that she insists on starting work immediately, and I guess there will be other programs in the evening.

In short, Ren Qiuling came this time to investigate a very strange little case. Just three days ago, a villager in the local village of Straw Hat Gou heard the little girl crying, and then a nearby villager went to take a look, only to see another village's hawker cow lying on the ground towards the tree, while his daughter squatted on the road and cried and said, "One big one, three small ones." ”

Niu Chaoshu has a very bad reputation in the local area, often causes trouble, and likes to beat people. He is in the business of mountain medicinal materials, but it is basically a forcible purchase, and there are many people who have suffered his losses. The villager thought that Niu Chaoshu had just drunk too much and didn't want to care about it. But the little girl cried so sadly that the villagers couldn't bear it anymore and helped Niu Chaoshu, only to find that Niu Chaoshu was dead.

After calling the police, people from the local police station quickly arrived there. The little girl, of course, was the first eyewitness, but she was so frightened that she could only say one word: "One big one, three small ones." Judging by her words, there should have been four people who attacked Niu Chaoshu, probably one of whom was very tall, and the other three were relatively short.

In addition, Niu Chaoshu came to the village on a motorcycle, and judging from the wheel prints at the scene, he spotted the attacker, then stopped the car and got into a fight with those guys. His motorcycle had been parked on the side of the road, not far behind his seven-year-old daughter.

It is not surprising that the matter is here, but the forensic examination surprised the police: the cause of Niu Chaoshu's death was not injury, but myocardial infarction - in layman's terms, he was scared to death.

Two types of wounds were found on his body, one was a whip mark. But his whip marks were old and new, and some had healed—a wound that was hard to see.

The other type of injury is a bite mark, and it's a human bite mark, very new. According to the tooth mark identification, four people bit him, and all three were changing their teeth - that is, the four were children, about six to eight years old. These bite marks are concentrated on the neck, shoulders, arms, and thighs, and there are dozens of them. Combined with the words of the little girl, four small children attacked Niu Chaoshu and managed to scare him to death. That's the weirdness of things, he's been fighting all year round and will be scared to death by four little kids?

Although one person died, such a case is actually a small case, and the reason is Niu Chaoshu's cause of death: acute myocardial infarction. Digging deeper into such a case, you may uncover an astonishing secret; If you put it casually, it is an ordinary death case.

Ren Qiuling looked at the file, and the more she looked at it, the more she felt that her vest was numb. She had a strong instinct: this wasn't your average murder!
