"Huh?"

"Why?"

"Why did it suddenly stop?"

"What's the matter, isn't our previous efforts in vain?"

For a while, the office was full of muttering discussions, but no one asked out loud.

After all, everyone knows that in this office, Gu Chi is the one who wants to find out the truth the most, and as for the reason for doing this, it must be related to being called to the office by Qi Lianhong just now.

Gu Chi didn't bother to pay attention to the complaints of his subordinates, and after informing him of the news, he came to the corner of the stairwell with a pack of cigarettes, and silently lit one and put it in his mouth.

He just couldn't figure out when the world had changed.

Even human life has become something that can be squandered at will.

"Team Gu......"

Zhou Yan gently put his shoulder on the back.

Everyone in the office knew that Gu Chi had a habit of coming to the stairwell to smoke when he was anxious or stressed.

"I don't know the situation, but the Qi Bureau must have his reasons for doing this, in case those people think that your investigation of the case affects their interests, maybe they will dismiss you again, you say, isn't it cost-effective?"

Gu Chi didn't speak, just snorted his head and smacked hard.

Only by numbing his nerves with strong tobacco can he temporarily forget the depression in his heart.

Zhou Yan understood that it was useless to say anything now, just sit aside and accompany him quietly.

Sometimes a man's tacit understanding is as simple as that.

However, a whole hour passed, Gu Chi just sat indifferently, the originally newly opened cigarette case had also deflated at this time, there were more and more cigarette butts on the trash can next to him, and the entire stairwell became smoky.

"That's it!"

Zhou Yan really couldn't stand it anymore, so he directly snatched the cigarette that was about to be lit in Gu Chi's hand.

Gu Chi was unmoved, just slightly stunned, and then took out a new one and put it in his mouth, so angry that Zhou Yan snatched the cigarette case, which made Gu Chi have some reaction.

"Give it to me."

"No, unless you go back to work."

"Smoke this box and go back."

Just when the two were arguing, Yang Zhixun hurriedly came over.

"After the teenagers in the Cross Street incident were released on bail, that Xu Jiao was sent abroad."

Zhou Yan hurriedly gave Yang Zhixun a look: "It's not that you won't continue to investigate, why are you still mentioning this matter." ”

Yang Zhixun shook his phone a little innocently: "It was the Qi Bureau that asked me to tell Team Gu this news." ”

The eyes of the two fell on Gu Chi together, waiting for him to react.

After a long time, Gu Chicai stretched his trouser legs and stood up from the steps.

"I see, let's go back to work first."

Originally, they thought that the information on the dark web could convict those children and blow up the mastermind behind them.

Unexpectedly, this news was not only useless, but the other party also fished out the suspect very arrogantly, what kind of powerful force is involved behind this?

After returning home that night, Gu Chi told Lin Wanyu what Qi Ju had said.

"Alas, who would have thought that after working for so long, the bamboo basket was empty." Gu Chi sat on the sofa blankly, he spent the whole day in the police station today, and he didn't know what he had done.

Seeing this, Lin Wanyu could only step forward to comfort him for a few words.

"By the way, tomorrow is the memorial service for a month of the Cross Street incident, have you heard?" Lin Wanyu deliberately opened the topic.

"Well, I think I've heard that." Gu Chi sat up straight from the sofa and hugged Lin Wanyu into his arms, "Are you going?" ”

"Of course," Lin Wanyu looked serious, "Since we can't find the truth for them, I naturally have to send them on their last journey." ”

"It's okay, I'll be with you."

Gu Chi was in a trance. I didn't expect time to pass so quickly, the stampede like purgatory, as if it happened yesterday, more than a hundred innocent lives have been gone for a month.

Because of the tragic nature of the incident, the memorial service was not organized by the government, but by the local people spontaneously.

The site is located in the cemetery of Liaocheng, and there is a piece of land that is specially fenced off as a permanent habitat for all the lives killed in that disaster.

Gu Chi and Lin Wanyu were both dressed in black, with a small white rose pinned to their chests, and both of them held a bouquet of white roses in their arms, which happened to be the number of the deceased.

Every time they pass by a tombstone, they pull out a rose and place it on the ground, making sure that no soul is left alone in the cemetery.

Although a month has passed, the pain of the loss of a loved one to survivors is still indelible.

Many of the families of the deceased are still holding their tombstones and weeping bitterly.

"Alas, he's also an infatuated person."

"This is God wants to beat the mandarin duck, there is no way to ......"

From a distance, the two saw a tombstone surrounded by a large number of people on the inside and outside of the tombstone, so they went to check the situation curiously.

"Hello, what's going on?"

Lin Wanyu gently patted an aunt in front of him.

The woman made a gap so that she could see the dull-looking man in front of the tombstone: "This young man, a month ago, he and his girlfriend went to the Cold Food Festival celebration, and the two of them were crowded together in a small alley, there were too many people, that girl was squeezed to death in his arms, that feeling, I really can't imagine." ”

"Yes, this young man was also injured internally, he was discharged from the hospital half a month ago, and after he came out, he sat in front of his girlfriend's grave day and night, I heard that the two of them were engaged, and they were originally going to hold a banquet this month, alas, what is this, I am afraid that this young man can't think about it, and he also followed...... "Another aunt also came to talk.

Lin Wanyu listened to their narration and looked at the haggard-faced man in the crowd in a daze.

Describing the withered tree, he didn't care about the eyes of others at all, just hugged the tombstone in a daze.

She could see that the girl's smile was beautiful on the picture attached to the tombstone, but it was forever left a month ago.

Gu Chi's face was also gloomy.

Along the way, there are too many such tragic encounters in the cemetery, and each family has its own sorrow, but the culprit is still living in this world with dignity.

In the crowded cemetery, how many unwilling souls are waiting for the day when the truth is revealed, how can he tolerate the real murderer going unpunished.

Gu Chi secretly swore in his heart that he must tell the world the true murderer!
