I felt a hot wind pass my cheeks at the sound of a gunshot, and then the splash of cold rain slapped on my face.

Pain, that's my first feeling, the bullet didn't hit me, the mysterious man removed the muzzle from my forehead the moment he shot, my punch hit the mysterious man's face firmly, he snorted and took two steps back.

The sound of the gun shook my eardrums, and there was a roar in my ears, and the buzzing sound came from my ears all the way to my brain, and for that moment, I couldn't hear anything, the sound of the pouring rain, the huge sound of running water in the reservoir, all the sounds were quiet in that moment.

The mysterious man stopped, he looked up, the eyes behind the mask were staring straight at me, I don't know if he spoke, I couldn't see his mouth, I couldn't hear what he said. The mysterious man didn't shoot again, but put the snatch back in the pocket of his black trench coat.

The mysterious man resumed the same movement he had come, his head bowed and his hands in his pockets.

His cap was already drenched in the pouring rain, and rain was constantly dripping from the brim of his hat that had been depressed. His mask was dented by my punch, and I was afraid that he would suddenly attack again.

Finally, my hearing slowly returned, and I stood with the mysterious man in the pouring rain and looked at each other, he didn't speak, and neither did I. I quickly thought about countermeasures in my heart, he had a gun, and it was impossible to subdue him with his bare hands, but he didn't seem to want to kill me, the shot just now was deliberately removed by him, even if I reacted quickly, it couldn't be faster than a bullet.

The rain had no intention of stopping, and as the night grew darker and darker, I squinted and looked around, and I had a feeling as if there were several eyes staring at me all around me. I glanced around and finally set my eyes on the gloomy woods.

Faintly, I could see a few small figures next to the big black shadows!

"Professor Li, did you find out?" The mysterious man finally spoke.

Even though I heard a man's voice on the phone, I instinctively felt a chill down my spine when I heard it in real life. I've never heard a normal person make such a voice, shrill and hoarse, yin and yang weird, barely able to distinguish the voice of a man.

He spoke so slowly, so slowly that I almost had no patience to continue listening.

I don't know if the mysterious man deliberately disguised this strange sound, and I don't have the heart to speculate, because there are indeed several figures in the grove. They seemed to be holding something in their hands, probably a cell phone, and it glowed with a faint blue light, and if it weren't for the faint blue light, I wouldn't have been able to spot them.

"Let them all come out." I kept the posture of attacking, at this moment, I put my hands down, those people are in the same group as the mysterious man, the mysterious man has a gun in his hand, they must have it, I am surrounded, it is useless to resist. I don't regret it in my heart, because I had to come because of this trip, and nothing can stop me from discovering the truth.

"Why did they come out?" The mysterious man slowly asked me, "This is a matter between me and you." ”

I calmed down, the mysterious man didn't kill me, and he said on the phone that he wouldn't hurt me, so what was his purpose. I can be sure that the mysterious man is definitely one of the people behind it, and I always feel that he is challenging me and the authority of the public security system.

Judging from the murder of Miao Miao, the youngest victim in the woman in red, I have already analyzed the murderer's early warning information, but the mysterious man called me at the last moment to tell me: It's too late, it's a provocation.

"Tell me, where is Xu Yi!" I asked in a deep voice.

The voice of my conversation with the mysterious man was not loud, to be precise, our voices were muffled by the sound of heavy rain. Every word the mysterious man said, I had to listen carefully with my ears turned to hear what he was saying.

Same as the answer on the phone: "Your woman, how would I know where." The sarcasm in the man's tone didn't irritate me, and I took a few more steps closer to the mysterious man, who remained motionless.

I stopped: "If you dare to hurt Xu Yi, I won't let you go." ”

Mysterious man: "It's worthy of Professor Li, and he can even threaten others at this time." ”

Me: "You met me just to say this?" ”

The mysterious man turned around and pulled his hands out of his pockets, and I became vigilant, but the man didn't pull out the gun again. He made a very strange gesture to his hand as he faced the grove, and I glanced towards it, and the figures quickly disappeared.

The mysterious man turned around and walked slowly around me. The mysterious man, who was about my height, was tall, and he walked around me in circles and circles, and finally, he stopped behind me. I didn't look back, I was thinking about his purpose.

"Professor Li, aren't you afraid of death?" The man was behind me, whispering to me.

Me: "I'm afraid of death, but I'm not afraid of you, and I'm not afraid of your accomplices." ”

I turned around and the mysterious man was standing less than a meter away from me.

Man: "My accomplices? The man paused, then laughed out loud, his scream long and bitter, piercing the rainy night: "Do you know what I hate about you the most? Arrogant, selfish, self-righteous, you always feel that there is no case in the world that you can't solve, but do you really think you are that powerful? ”

I shook my head: "It's not that I'm powerful, it's justice and law that are powerful." ”

The mysterious man snorted coldly: "Ignorance! ”

I stared at the figure of the mysterious man, the temperature of the autumn night was not high, but it was not too cold, the man seemed to be wearing a lot, perhaps he was trying to hide his original body shape. I looked down and saw that the man was wearing a pair of black boots on his feet, which were huge, and he was tall and should not have worn such big scary shoes.

He did it on purpose, he was afraid that the footprints he left behind would be detected by the police, and he was very thoughtful, and he was not even willing to expose the size of his feet.

I made sure in my heart that the man didn't come to me to kill me.

"You did the case of the woman in red." I asked.

The man did not admit it, nor did he deny it, and was silent for a long time before he said to me: "If you don't want to die, it's better to give up investigating this case." ”

I scoffed: "I said, I'm not afraid of death." ”

Man: "What about Xu Yi, aren't you afraid of her death?" ”

The man's words tugged at my heartstrings again: "Where the hell is Xu Yi!" ”

The man shook his head: "If you give up the investigation, Xu Yi may return to your side soon." ”

Me: "What are you afraid of?" Afraid I'll find out who you are? Or are you afraid of going to jail, or afraid of being sentenced to death? ”

The man's voice suddenly became fierce: "I said, I'm not afraid of anything, and the law can't punish me!" Or rather, the law is not worthy to punish me! ”

Finally, I caught the man's psychological weakness, he was able to stay calm all the time, but when the law was mentioned, he became emotional. I smiled slightly: "Take off your mask, and you will know if the law can punish you!" ”

The man lowered his head suddenly, and through the mask, I could guess that the face under his mask must be gloomy. The cold wind blew, and my body shook involuntarily, and this was the third time that the man had pulled his hands out of the pockets of his trench coat, and this time, he took out the gun again.

He walked up to me and put the muzzle of his gun to my forehead: "Do you think I really don't dare to kill you?" ”

I casually flicked my hand and moved the muzzle of the gun away: "If you wanted to kill me, you would have done it a long time ago, but I really want to know the purpose of your coming to see me, just to let me stop checking further?" ”

The man's emotions became more and more excited, and he yelled at me: "Li Ke, I said, I don't like your self-righteousness!" You said I wouldn't kill you, so I'll kill you! ”

The man moved, he raised his hand as fast as he could, holding the gun in both hands, and the way he held the gun was imprinted into my pupils, and at that moment, I just felt like my head was going to explode, as if something was stimulating my brain nerves.

I will remember this action of the man for the rest of my life, I will not forget it, and I don't want to forget it......
