Chapter 166: Extinguishing the Mouth
Looking at the fourth person in the black-and-white photo, Lin Bayi's eyes revealed deep fear, and after a while, he finally calmed down and said slowly: "Actually, you also know the fourth person in the photo." ”
What the? I know! How could it be!
"So, who is this person?" I desperately wanted to hear the answer from him.
Why is Lin Bayi sure that I know that strange man in red? Could it be that I had some kind of intersection with that weirdo in red, or maybe he was someone close to me?
I suddenly remembered that I seemed to have asked the same question to Lao Yan, but that guy had been secretive and unwilling to give me a clear answer.
Could it be that Lao Yan also knows the truth about this? At this point, I didn't dare to continue thinking about it, just waiting for Lin Bayi in front of me to tell the truth.
"Be careful!"
At this moment, I suddenly saw a flash of red light in front of me, and in the next second, Lin Bayi jumped up first and pushed me down.
"Bang!" A heavy gunshot accompanied by the sound of glass shattering, and a blood-colored flower instantly bloomed on Lin Bayi's chest.
Warm blood continued to spill down his thin chest, and I had never seen anyone directly hit by a sniper rifle up close, and the bullet was pierced along with the bones in his chest.
Lin Bayi fell on top of me like this, and in an instant, I was also drowned in warm blood.
Blood, blood everywhere! The dusty door of memory slowly opened, bringing me back to that nightmarish midnight.
There was already chaos outside the house, and Lin Feng and Lin Xiaoxue were the first to struggle and rush into the house.
It was the first time I saw Xiaoxue so dazed, and suddenly she had lost the ability to think, and she just wanted to do her best to stop Lin Bayi's overflowing blood.
However, no matter how hard she tried, it was to no avail.
"Who shot indiscriminately?"
Liu Hao roared angrily, and Lu Yuan chased most of the people out directly, and suddenly, I heard two more gunshots, but it seems that the direction of the other party's attack is not here in the office.
Could it be that there was a firefight outside the house? But aren't the people who can be arranged on the roof of the building outside all from the police?
Because of excessive blood loss, Lin Bayi's complexion quickly turned pale, his body became cold and stiff, and his whole body gradually became spasms.
These are all precursors to imminent death due to blood loss!
But even so, Lin Bayi still tried his best to grab my hand, wanting to say something.
"Lean over and listen! What the hell are you waiting for? Lin Xiaoxue almost shouted this sentence with a crying voice.
The old man in front of him, who was more than a little old, was directly pierced by a bullet in his chest.
Lin Xiaoxue herself is a forensic doctor, and she knows better than anyone that her father is definitely hopeless. At the moment, the only thing we can do is to let him not leave with regrets.
After calming down, I slowly leaned down and put my ear to Lin Bayi's mouth. A moment later, a whisper came out of his throat:
"For me ... Take care of Xiaoxue! ”
"Don't worry, I will!"
"And...
"What else?" My heart began to beat wildly again, and I vaguely felt in my heart that what Lin Bayi said next would be the key.
In just a few seconds, it seems like half a century is long. A moment later, Lin Bayi squeezed out the last bit of sound from his hoarse throat.
"Actually... In fact.... You.... And we are all the same, we ... No one can escape! ”
Suddenly, as if the old scar had been poked open, the scar on his chest began to ache faintly.
"You... How do you know this, who and who told you exactly! Who is that weirdo in red! I roared hoarsely, wanting to know the answer, but after a long time, Lin Bayi never said a word again!
"Goofy... Don't get too excited! My dad, he's gone! Lin Xiaoxue on the side cried silently, and when I stood upright, I found that Lin Bayi had completely stopped moving at this time.
Before he died, he held my hand tightly with Lin Xiaoxue, as if he had handed over something important to me.
I never imagined that this old man, who had been in the limelight for half his life, would leave us forever in this way.
His eyes were wide open, staring at the ceiling, his mouth still open to speak, but his cold body was already stiff.
But in general, the old man walked peacefully, compared to staying in prison for a lifetime, maybe this way is the best ending for him.
In an instant, my mind was in a mess again, and the clues that had been sorted out were all disrupted again.
Lin Bayi is an introducer, there must be a shocking conspiracy hidden behind him. And I don't know when that conspiracy actually got in touch with me.
It's just that before Lin Bayi could tell us the truth, he was killed by others, just like the pianist and Chang Qingshan who died in his hands before.
Perhaps, in the dark, everything has already been decided.
A moment later, the paramedics who followed closely followed quickly disposed of Lin Bayi's body.
Lin Feng and Lin Xiaoxue were crying silently in front of the cold corpse. Their mother died early, and with the death of Lin Bayi, the two siblings were left to rely on each other.
I slowly let go of Xiaoxue's soft palm, then took off my blood-stained shirt and struggled out of the house against the wall next to me.
The situation was completely beyond my imagination, and I crouched in a secluded corner, calming down and recalling the details of the conference room at that time.
In that situation, the sniper on the roof could only shoot if Lin Bayi was out of control, or if he might take a threatening action.
Moreover, the purpose of shooting is only to incapacitate the target, not to kill the target, so it stands to reason that the shot should also be aimed at the hands or feet, rather than hitting the vital point directly.
What's more, the situation in the conference room at that time was not within the range of shooting at all, so I was sure that someone must have been afraid of what Lin Bayi would say, so they found someone to kill him.
However, after thinking about it, I feel that there is a bit of a discrepancy.
I clearly remember that Lin Bayi threw me to the ground after feeling that something was wrong, and then he was shot in the chest and fell to the ground.
The bullet came in through the window behind me, and the people outside the house at that angle should have only been able to aim at me, not Lin Bayi.
Could it be that the target that the other party wanted to shoot at that time was actually me? And Lin Bayi was shot and died in order to save me?
I was bent on throwing him in prison, but Lin Bayi was willing to save my life at that time, and it seems that he is not a serial killer who has really lost his humanity.
If Lin Feng and Xiaoxue knew the true situation, would they hate me even more?
After a period of busyness, Lu Yuan and Liu Hao also returned to the office, and after learning of Lin Bayi's death, the faces of these two guys added a little gloom.
Lu Yuan took out a bag of cigarettes, took one out of it, put it in his mouth, and slowly lit it. Seeing this, Liu Hao stretched out his hand and motioned to Lu Yuan to hand him one.
But the guy from Lu Yuan didn't like him at all, and after taking a puff of himself, he directly threw the cigarette case to me, which made Liu Hao very embarrassed, so he could only retract his outstretched hand again.
Light a cigarette, take a deep breath, and wait for your mind to calm down again: "So, who fired the gun and caught that guy?" ”
There was silence for a full minute before Liu Hao replied: "The guy who shot knew that he couldn't escape, so he swallowed the gun and committed suicide."
The other party should have been prepared to die before coming, and after investigation, it was found that it was neither from the armed police nor the police station, and no one knew how he got in or how he got the gun. ”
Lu Yuan snorted coldly when he heard this: "So, the sentry post arranged by the police here is useless, and I don't even know that outsiders sneak in and step on the spot?" ”
