Near the airport, there are many big men in suits and leather shoes, looking fully armed. ,。

Although I don't know if these guys are related to the Yu Group, it's better to be careful.

After getting off the plane, we didn't take the normal passageway, but went straight to a safety exit and slipped out through the back 'door' of the airport.

When we first arrived in Heijin City, there were only three of us, and counting Xu Fugui's manpower, it was far from enough to solve the murder case and the disappearance of 'Hua' and 'Hua' at the same time.

After discussion, we decided to divide the troops into two ways, and Xiaoxue and I went to meet Xu Fugui to find out what happened to the murder in Heijin City.

Lu Yuan, on the other hand, rushed to meet with Lin Jie, took the lead in learning about the latest progress on the disappearance of 'Hua' and 'Hua', and waited until he 'felt' the real situation on both sides before making specific discussions.

At this time, the sky is dark, and the dark night is undoubtedly a natural barrier for us. After changing into the clothes I had prepared in advance, I took a taxi and left the place early.

After breaking up with Lu Yuan, I contacted Xu Fugui as soon as possible.

After a few blind tones, Xu Fugui finally answered the phone.

Through the phone, the guy's voice sounded tired, as the captain of the criminal investigation team in Heijin City, the re-occurrence of the homicide was enough to keep him busy.

"I'll send you an address, just come to me. The incident happened suddenly, and it was too late to arrange another place for you to live, or the hotel next to the police station last time, what do you think? ”

Guesthouse near the police station! Hearing these words, a deep sense of fear once again passed over Xiaoxue's face.

There were so many stories going on in that hotel.

Late-night haunted calls, mysterious ghosts, and bizarre mannequins. Thinking about it now, I remember the scene as if it happened yesterday.

At that time, I was still 'confused' as to why the other party knew everything about the actions of the police, and why he could provoke us again and again without 'exposing' his flaws. After going through so much, I found out why.

All of this must be related to Fang Qiang, who committed suicide in the black gold case, and Tang Yirou! At this time, returning to the black gold market and finding out the connection between them is also something I must complete!

The taxi ran all the way and soon arrived at the address Xu Fugui had ordered earlier.

Because I had been to this black gold market before, I also had a general understanding of the roads around this city, and it didn't take much effort to find the coffee shop where I had agreed to meet.

opened the 'door' and entered, Xu Fugui sat on the innermost sofa, constantly 'smoking' a cigarette. It can be seen that he has been here for a long time, and the leftover cigarette butts in front of him have been piled up into a small mountain bag.

The atmosphere of the whole café was very depressing, and the waiters at the front desk looked like they were all plainclothes deliberately laid by the police.

From the moment they entered the house, they never took their eyes off us, and it felt as if they could see through us with their eyes alone.

Seeing that Xiaoxue and I came in, Xu Fugui took the opportunity to snuff out the cigarette butt, and then waved at the waiter on the side, signaling that they could let him go.

The light at the main 'door' of the café was very dim, and after entering, I found that there was a 'hole' inside.

In the huge room, there are two large desks. On the walls on both sides, there are many specific details related to the case. I took a cursory glance and saw that most of the things on the walls were pictures related to the Black Gold Case.

"Good guy, did you move the police station desk here?"

"I'm also 'forced' to have no choice!" Xu Fugui shook his head helplessly: "After the case, I didn't know that the 'bastard' leaked the news, and the media reporters bombarded the city bureau like a cannon." The provincial department is also chasing closely, one phone call an hour, I am really annoyed by the blockage, so I can only temporarily move the office here to hide from those guys! ”

Since breaking up at No. 37 L House, Xu Fugui's whole person has changed a lot, the cheeks on both sides have sunken rapidly, his eyes are red, and he is almost about to burst out, and his chin and beard are unkempt, and it seems that he has stayed up late during this time.

Come to think of it, it is only natural that things will fall into such a situation.

The last time I left the Black Gold Market, the city bureau ignored the remaining doubts in the case and directly announced the closure of the case with great fanfare.

In this way, when the same case happens again, it is bound to cause a great sensation, and correspondingly, the ability of the municipal bureau to handle the criminal investigation brigade will naturally be questioned by the public. As the captain of the criminal investigation team, at this moment, the pressure on Xu Fugui's shoulders is almost unimaginable.

"What's going on, tell me about the murder in detail!" At the moment, I didn't have time to discuss superfluous things with him anymore, so I went straight to the point and asked him about the murder.

Xu Fugui beckoned to the back door, and the roar of a car engine sounded outside the café.

"The murder scene is still sealed and has not been moved, I have put the trace identification, forensic conclusions and relevant details of the case in the car, time is tight, let's watch while walking!"

After opening the back door, a black 'colored' Hummer sedan was parked on the side of the road. Xiaoxue and I exchanged glances, and then got on the frame together.

On the main driver's seat was a young police officer, who seemed to have just joined the work for a long time, and was sitting next to Xu Fugui, the captain of the criminal investigation team, not daring to be sloppy.

After seeing Xiaoxue and I sitting in the back seat, Xu Fugui took out a stack of things from the 'drawer' in the passenger seat, and muttered to the little police officer without looking back: "Go to the scene of the murder, take the path, don't make a fuss!" ”

Hearing Xu Fugui say this, the little policeman nervously extinguished the fire twice before finally starting the Humvee, and then turned into the small alley on the side with one foot on the oil 'door'.

I was looking at the file intently, but the road in the alley was too bumpy, and the little policeman was nervous, and the clutch shook and shook, almost shaking Xiaoxue and me directly.

Xu Fugui saw our predicament, and while scolding the little police officer for being serious, he apologized and said: "Don't care, the people who are involved in the investigation of the case now are all temporarily 'drawn' from nearby counties and cities, although almost all of them are newcomers, but the foundation has all been 'touched' more than once, and the background is cleaner than my face!" ”

Xiaoxue heard the meaning of Xu Fugui's words, and said bluntly that it didn't matter, and asked the little police officer not to care: "It seems that Uncle Fang's matter has too much influence on you!" ”

"yes!" Xu Fugui listened to it and sighed helplessly: "In our business, it doesn't matter how powerful the criminals are, what I am most afraid of is being stabbed in the back by the people around me, that taste, not to mention how aggrieved it is!" ”

Stabbed in the back by someone close to you? Xu Fugui's words made me feel a lot of emotion.

In an instant, what happened in the underground factory came to my mind like a 'tide'.

The flying compass, the spilled blood, the fire, and the body torn in two. The results of the investigation afterwards told me that all of this was fake, and it was all a trap set in advance.

If you have the chance, you can ask her in person.

But inadvertently, she and I have gone down two very different paths. The next time we meet, will we have a chance to sit down and have a good conversation? To be honest, I've never been so 'lost' since I've grown up.

"Goofy... Goofy! ”

Xiaoxue's familiar voice called my consciousness back again. When I turned my head to look, I saw that the girl's face was less than ten centimeters away from me, and at this moment, she was staring at me with big eyes.

"Well, what's wrong?"

Xiaoxue blinked, and slowly said, "Who were you thinking about just now?" ”

"Where? Haven't I been reading the information Xu Fugui gave me? ”

"Liar!" Xiaoxue said angrily: "Who are you fooling?" Take a good look at the dossier in your hand! ”

Hearing her say that, I refocused my attention on the dossier in my hand.

I was thinking too much about it just now, and inadvertently, I took the file down. I scratched my head a little embarrassed, comforted Xiaoxue a few words, and then put the file back in order.

"That. . . Gao Fei, there is a saying, I don't know if I should say it... Xiao Xue subconsciously bit her lower lip and muttered with some struggle.

As I flipped through the file, I slowly muttered, "If it's really embarrassing, don't talk about it!" I don't have time to deal with you right now, anyway. ”

"You...

"Okay, okay, amuse you! Let's put it bluntly, these are not outsiders here! ”

"Okay!" Xiaoxue took a deep breath and seemed to be mentally prepared, so she mustered up the courage to speak: "Do you think that the case that happened in the Black Gold City has anything to do with what my father and brother did... ”

I subconsciously glanced at my mouth and said directly: "I don't know, and to be honest, I don't want to know." ”

"Why? Haven't you been chasing these things all along? "Maybe it was my slightly casual answer that 'provoked' the scars hidden deep in Xiaoxue's heart. At this moment, she seemed a little hoarse.

"Yan Hei's interrogation record, Tang Yan showed it to me. The Indoctrination Ground Project was a big mistake! Those who died innocently, those children who were treated as subjects like inkstones, they were all innocent! My father and brother, however, have been on this wrong path and drifted apart. I don't know how I should feel about it! As she spoke, Xiaoxue's eyes even reddened a little: "If you could, I even hoped that you had chosen Tang Yirou instead of me." That way, maybe it wouldn't be so painful now! ”

Xiaoxue said this sentence almost hoarsely, and Xu Fugui and the little policeman in front of her were stunned, and almost drove the car directly into the ditch.

I gently closed the file, then took a cigarette from my pocket and lit it slowly.

The atmosphere was still for about a minute, and in this minute, it seemed that the whole world had disappeared, and in this world, only me and Xiaoxue on the side were left,

With that, he rolled down the window and threw out the leftover cigarette butts.

Emotions are like the smell of smoke accumulated in this car, which is too full, and occasionally needs to be released like this. It seems that not only Xu Fugui, but even Xiaoxue, a silly girl, has a lot of pressure on her shoulders. It's just that all this time, I was busy solving the case, but I ignored her alone.

"Silly girl! They are them, you are you! You don't have to take on this unnecessary guilt. At least, it's not fair to you. ”

"But I have the same blood as them!"

What does that mean? Humans and monkeys may have the same blood in their bodies! I felt ridiculous at Xiaoxue's overly paranoid kindness: "I can't make a conclusion about what kind of people Lin Bayi and Lin Feng are. At the very least, they don't want you to be caught up in it and hurt as a result until they die. In a way, although the two of them have done a lot of wrong things, they are still 100% "kind" in protecting you. ”

Man is such a strange animal, and the more things he has, the less likely he is to perceive the value of them.

Come to think of it, if my dad could have done this to me, maybe I wouldn't have ended up in the situation I am in now.

I clenched Xiaoxue's trembling right hand, lowered my voice and comforted, "Remember, you are you, they are them!" There is no need to live so strugglingly. If the guilt can't be erased, try to focus on the case. Joining me to completely dismantle the Indoctrination Ground Project may also be a kind of salvation for you in a sense! ”

As I spoke, I couldn't help but feel a little ridiculous.

Goofy, Goofy, when did you learn to break these lame truths?

But what I said really had some effect. After listening, Xiaoxue seemed to calm down again, and her breathing rate gradually stabilized.

After a few moments, she muttered in a voice that was almost only audible to the two of us, "So, so, will you hold on to it until the end for me?" ”

Stick to the end? To be honest, I don't know how much longer I'll be able to hold on. Since the Black Gold case, the successive blows have already torn my 'spirit' to pieces. Especially after the conversation with Yu Yinghao, I even questioned countless times, whether it was possible to defeat that terrible group and completely dismantle the indoctrination field plan?

I'm just an ordinary person, I don't have such a strong psychological quality, and occasionally I will hesitate and be 'confused'. But looking at Xiaoxue's expectant eyes, I couldn't bear to tell the truth, so I could only grit my teeth and forcibly squeeze out a smile: "Of course!" I've survived so much and I'm sure I'll make it to the end! ”

As soon as the words fell, Xiaoxue's face gradually dissipated, and she smiled again.

But her smile may be what I've been looking forward to for so long.

"Ahem" Xu Fugui turned around a little embarrassed and interrupted the conversation between me and Xiaoxue.

"Sorry to interrupt the conversation between you, it's time to get there, why don't we go and see the scene of the crime first?"

"Okay, let's get down to business first!" All the attention just now was on Xiaoxue, so I only read the dossier. I already know the specific details of the case, and if I think about it carefully, this homicide case is really similar to the previous black gold case.

The case happened three days ago, in the hotel in front of you.

The hotel was built in a remote suburb, which was originally intended for tourists and long-distance drivers to rest, because the guests were very 'chaotic', which also added a lot of difficulty to the follow-up investigation of the police. After the incident, the police immediately cordoned off the scene, and the remaining tenants were all cleared out of the hotel and taken to the police station for investigation and questioning.

Xu Fugui led me and Xiaoxue all the way forward, and after two corners, the three-story hotel stood in the middle like a huge ghost.

The hotel has three floors, 10 rooms on each floor, five in a row, in an 'intersecting' arrangement, a total of 30 rooms, of which the first and second floors are single rooms, and the third floor is double rooms.

According to the innkeeper's confession, the inn rented out less than 15 rooms that night, which was far below the normal level. In other words, at least half of the rooms are empty.

The fewer people who live there, the less likely it is to find witnesses. All of these are invisibly making it difficult to solve the case.

The murder happened in room 304 on the third floor.
