The torrential rain continued until 6 a.m. the next morning. The county seat has been flooded with gold mountains. As far as the eye can see, many low-lying sections of the road can be crossed by assault boats. Quite a few buildings had their floors flooded. People rushed to the rooftop balconies for help.

Qiu Ruoshui's house is located on the high side, but there is also a flood infiltrating the staircase on the first floor.

It seems that there is no way to go to work today, so I can only wait at home and wait for the flood water to recede.

The sewers in every street are already full of water. The manhole cover was swept to the ground by the flood water that crossed up and down. The water inside gushes out like a fountain. Rescue teams are being organized by local agencies. Both the armed police and the public security dispatched assault boats and hovercraft of various types.

Chopin, as a gym coach and a professional veteran, had to act accordingly.

So he hurriedly called Liang Huan and asked him about the situation there.

Qiu Ruoshui and Wang Fei stayed beside them. Wang Fei's expression looked very strange.

Qiu Ruoshui thought that if Chopin went to participate in the rescue operation, then Wang Fei would definitely follow. After they left, she was the only one left in the family. In case of.... Phew! Where did the world come from, so many in case. What are you thinking?

Chopin's phone call had not yet been reached. Is Liang Huan's phone out of battery? I was still worried that someone would harass me, so I deliberately turned off my mobile phone.

Qiu Ruoshui didn't dare to think about it. I was worried about Liang Huan's safety.

Wang Fei said: "Master, has Liang Huan turned off the phone?" ”

Chopin said: "No, no one has answered on the phone." ”

"Then, do you want to call Xu Shasha to ask about the situation. She must know what Liang Huan and Lan Xi are doing. ”

Wang Fei couldn't hold it back, and leaned over to whisper to Chopin.

Qiu Ruoshui was surprised, pulled a chair over and sat down, stared at the master and apprentice intently, and said, "Brother Wang means that he has taken a fancy to Lanxi's assistant Xu Shasha?" Not really. You like my secretary, Miss Xiaolan. ”

Wang Fei: "Impossible, how can I like your secretary Miss Xiaolan." ”

Speaking of Xiaolan, Qiu Ruoshui patted her thigh and said, "By the way, I don't know how Xiaolan is in the hospital." I'll call right away and ask. Wait a minute. Even if Xiaolan didn't know about Liang Huan's situation, the smart Meng Yuxi would definitely know. ”

Chopin continued to call Liang Huan's phone, but there was still no answer during the call.

There was no way, so I had to rush to Qiu Ruoshui, who walked to the window to make a call, spread out her hands and smiled bitterly.

Qiu Ruoshui opened all the windows in the living room, allowing the fresh natural breeze to blow in from outside.

Chopin, who was sitting on the sofa, couldn't help but open his mouth and take a big breath of fresh air. But at this moment, he smelled a pungent stench. It smelled like a corpse rotting. Could it be a dead rat or some other animal nearby? Otherwise, where does this rancid smell come from? When I think about it like this, I can't help but bang in my head.

"Master, what does this smell like?"

Wang Fei also smelled it. Surprised as he looked at Chopin and asked.

Chopin did not speak. His nose is iron-clad. During his years as a soldier in the army, his comrades-in-arms said that he was a dog's nose.

He was judging the direction of the wind and the direction the rancid smell was coming from. Then slowly walk towards the window.

Qiu Ruoshui also smelled it. But she thinks there might be a rat or a cat or a dog or something dead nearby.

"It stinks. Where's the smell? ”

Qiu Ruoshui hung up the phone as she spoke, and reached out to close the window.

Chopin pulled her away, then leaned over to the window edge to carefully identify the source of the rancid smell.

Wang Fei said: "Mr. Qiu, Miss Xiaolan is fine." ”

Qiu Ruoshui came to the sofa and sat down, brought a cigarette and lit it, and said, "Okay, it's okay." It's just that the hospital lobby is flooded. The water is not deep, so don't worry. ”

"Then, what about Meng Yuxi. Is she okay? ”

Qiu Ruoshui stared at him: "What, your kid has a lot of appetite." I have Xu Shasha in my heart, and I still think about Meng Yuxi. Remind you. Meng Yuxi is not an idle person. You can't handle it at all. Die of that heart. ”

Wang Fei was just about to explain, when Chopin suddenly stretched out a hand to him. Wang Fei immediately shut up and said nothing. Walked briskly towards the window. Qiu Ruoshui watched and didn't understand the meaning of Chopin's action.

"Master, what's the situation, I've figured out where the rancid smell came from."

Chopin nodded, and then came back to Qiu Ruoshui to inquire about the situation.

Qiu Ruoshui was surprised: "What are you talking about, the rancid smell comes from my neighbor's house next door." How can it be. ”

Chopin said, "I'll just ask you." One night not long ago, did a police officer come to the door and take him away? Then it was put back the next day. That person knew about Zhao Xiangbei's situation. ”

Qiu Ruoshui was even more confused, and looked at Chopin, who was like a great enemy: "Yes, is there anything wrong with this?" At least he has nothing to do with Xu Shasha's poisoning. Don't forget that he's my neighbor. Although I don't know him well and have only met him a few times, I believe he is not a bad person. ”

Chopin said: "I know you don't believe your neighbors are bad people. What if he is killed by the bad guys? ”

Qiu Ruoshui was frightened: "What are you talking about, do you suspect that my neighbor was killed?" How can it be. When I came home from work last Sunday, I met him on the street. At that time, he was in good spirits, and he called me Mr. Qiu. ”

Chopin didn't want to talk too much nonsense with Qiu Ruoshui, so he decided to go to Qiu Ruoshui's next-door neighbor's house immediately to see what was going on.

Wang Fei agreed with the master's opinion and immediately went downstairs with the master.

Qiu Ruoshui hurriedly changed into boots and chased out.

When I got downstairs, the rancid smell was even worse. Some citizens have waded into the water to come downstairs to the neighbor's house next door to Qiu Ruoshui and look up. Apparently the rancid smell came from the living room on the second floor. Qiu Ruoshui also smelled it. So he followed Chopin and Wang Fei and hurried to the neighbor's house.

She had already inquired clearly, and the single male neighbor next door was named Zhao Youting. It turned out to be a village north of Zhao Xiang. Later, he moved to the city with his parents. My parents made a lot of money in business ten years ago and built this house here. The house is well decorated and purchased for a luxurious housewarming. But the next year, his parents were suddenly in a car accident and both died. So Zhao Youting became the only one in the family. He has no siblings and does not usually interact with classmates and relatives. Relying on the money left to him by his parents, he stayed at home every day, and did not go out to find a job and find a girlfriend to inherit the Zhao family.

A man like him seems to be kind on the surface, but there should be something wrong with his thoughts.

Qiu Ruoshui's mind was wondering if it was possible for his neighbor Zhao Youting to do something immoral and offend someone.

I hope he's okay, if someone really kills him, or if someone escapes. Then she won't dare to come back here in the future.

Wade to the downstairs of Zhao Youting's house. Once again, Chopin identified the source of the rancid smell.

It was indeed from the window on the second floor of Zhao Youting's house. So why don't you open that door and go in?

When I think so. Chopin was not calm.

It's better to call the police and wait for the police to come.

So Chopin reached for his phone in his pocket. It turned out that the phone fell on the sofa in the living room of Qiu Ruoshui's house.

Wang Fei said, "Master, use my mobile phone." Call whoever you want to call, I'll call you. ”

Chopin said, "Call 110." ”

Wang Fei: "Ah, Master, are you sure you should call the police now?" ”

Qiu Ruoshui: "I'll come." I'm familiar with this piece. Better presentation to the police. ”

Chopin said: "Then it will be troublesome to Mr. Qiu." ”

Qiu Ruoshui smiled but didn't say anything, took out her mobile phone and dialed 110.

Heavy rains have caused serious waterlogging in the city. All the breakfast shops on the street are closed. None of them opened their doors along the way. It seems that the breakfast went back and made it myself. I don't care about it for now, I'm not hungry anyway. Qiu Ruoshui began to remain silent after calling the police.

The flooding in the sewers is gradually weakening. Stagnant water from the streets began to pour into the sewers. A rat screamed and rushed into the sewer with the current, and in an instant it was silent.

A brilliant cloud rose in the eastern sky. The sun's rays are projected from the clouds, illuminating every corner of Linxian. The sky looks exceptionally blue after heavy rain. It is like a large dark blue mirror shrouded in the sky above Linxian County.

After receiving the report, the police of the Chengguan Police Station immediately organized people to rush over.

It was actually the last time I saw two police officers, a man and a woman. It was the two people who took Zhao Youting away that night.

Qiu Ruoshui recognized them from afar. So he leaned over and whispered to Chopin.

Chopin said: "Are you sure it was these two policemen who took your neighbor away that night?" I'm not mistaken. ”

Qiu Ruoshui: "Yes, I can see it clearly that night, it was they who took away my neighbor Zhao Youting." ”

Chopin said, "Then I'll tell you a secret." That male policeman was my high school classmate Chen Li. ”

Qiu Ruoshui was surprised: "Ah, Master Xiao, I heard it right." That guy was your high school classmate. ”

Chopin: "I can't fool anyone." Autumn total. ”

Qiu Ruoshui flashed a wink at him: "Okay, believe you once." ”

Yes, Chopin did not lie to her. The tall male policeman was indeed his classmate Chen Li.

The female policeman's name is Fan Xiaoye. In the eyes of all the police officers of the Chengguan Police Station, she is a precious and rare piece of jade.

Chen Li recognized Chopin and immediately walked up to shake his hand.

Chopin pulled him down and talked about the situation. So Chen Li looked up at the upstairs window of Zhao Youting's house. The last time I came to talk to the head of the household, I was in the living room on the second floor. At that time, Zhao Youting reported that his Yuanyuan was missing.

Yuanyuan is just a dog he raised, could it be that the head of the household can't find his Yuanyuan, and then his Yuanyuan dies again? Otherwise, where does such a disgusting rancid smell come from?

Fan Xiaoye knew Qiu Ruoshui and stepped forward to ask her about the situation.

Qiu Ruoshui didn't dare to hide anything, so she told her neighbor a week ago.

So Fan Xiaoye took out his mobile phone and called Zhao Youting. The last time I took him to the police station to make a record, I had already written down Zhao Youting's phone number. I've already dialed once on the way here. But Zhao Youting's mobile phone was turned off.

Chen Li asked: "Have you opened up?" ”

Fan Xiaoye shook his head: "It's still off." ”

Chen Li didn't ask, picked up his mobile phone and started taking pictures. first photographed the situation in front of Zhao Youting's house, and then took out the lock-picking tool to open the iron door. Fan Xiaoye was the first to rush in.

"Old classmate, please help me keep an eye on this door, no one is allowed to come in. I'll treat you to dinner when I have time. ”

Chen Li called Chopin over and told him again. Chopin said that there was no problem.

Wang Fei said, "Master, do you need me to do something?" ”

Chopin ran to the door and stood up, and said, "Go get something to eat." ”

"Okay." Wang Fei agreed to come down and leave.

Qiu Ruoshui thought it would be better to go home and cook something to eat and send it over. What if Wang Fei can't buy something to eat. Wouldn't Chopin's master and apprentice be hungry? So he immediately turned around and went home.

Chopin said: "Mr. Qiu, please charge my mobile phone, the mobile phone may be out of battery." ”

Qiu Ruoshui: "Don't worry, just leave it to me." ”
