"Don't underestimate people, the wind is waiting for burial."

"You are willing to give your soul for your truth, and I also have the justice I insist on."

“...”

April 16, 2018, 13:00 p.m., Dia City Police Academy.

Li Xiaonan was swaying out of the school cafeteria with a bottle of soda, he bent his eyes to look at the hot midday sun, and he didn't know what he was thinking about.

At this time, Li Xiaonan changed his previous outfit and changed into a light and breathable light blue sportswear, looking like a physical education teacher in a high school.

At the same time, he also changed to a pair of running shoes of the same color on his feet - he realized that perhaps the tryouts would be just as physically demanding.

The reason why Li Xiaonan came up with this idea stemmed from the results of the investigation that was buried four days ago - the patient who went to the wrong consultation room.

Now that all the superficial clues have been incorporated into the case file or recorded in the detective's notes, there is still no breakthrough in this serial case – such as profiling the suspect's criminal mind or finding what the victim has in common.

Therefore, Li Xiaonan believes that in the deeper part of the case, there must be other clues that have not been discovered, such as the rental house he found by chance, or the information about the "gambling game" obtained by Feng Yifu.

And this part of the hidden information requires him to use "physical strength" to find it.

The sudden heavy rain had only stopped three days earlier, and at the same time that the rain had stopped, Li Xiaonan immediately took his backpack from the express hotel he was renting, canceled the extension of his stay in the hotel, and then took the subway back to the dormitory of the police university.

According to the original plan, after changing into clothes suitable for running, he should have gone to the store where Sun Mo last spent to briefly investigate the situation and observe the surrounding environment.

But until today, four days after the burial of his brother with the wind, he has not taken a step out of the campus, and is still wandering aimlessly.

The reason is actually very simple, Li Xiaonan noticed that he seemed to be being targeted by someone, and even followed him all the way to the campus of the Police University.

For three days, he had been trying to catch one of the stalkers, but each time he was a little bit off.

These people are not unorganized, they even use the cross-tracking method to avoid Li Xiaonan's detection, whenever Li Xiaonan changes his path, another person will calmly and naturally fill in the position of the previous tracker, and at the same time, the previous tracker is disguised as a passerby to leave according to the previous path.

But in fact, Li Xiaonan noticed it as early as the way back to school, because on the rainy streets, the stalkers who looked like pedestrians in a hurry, the shoes on their feet were too clean.

“...”

After walking around the campus twice, Li Xiaonan casually sat on the benches on both sides of the boulevard, took out a lighter and lit a cigarette.

"Why me?" Through the scattered sunlight through the gaps in the leaves, Li Xiaonan lost his focus and thought that even if they had affected the progress of his investigation a little so far, these trackers had not directly hindered or harmed him, so he had not informed Feng of this matter.

Because Li Xiaonan knows very well that although Feng Beifu seems to behave frivolously and casually, in fact, he is more eager for the truth than anyone else, so when it is not necessary, Li Xiaonan does not want to use his "private affairs" or personal safety as a reason to affect Feng Beifu's investigation of the case.

A few minutes later, exhaling the last puff of cigarette, Li Xiaonan snuffed out the cigarette butt, and took advantage of the gap in his head to stealthily glance at the man sitting on the bench diagonally opposite him, the man behaved like an ordinary college student, shaking his legs and fiddling with his mobile phone.

But in the work of this cigarette, the man's gaze fell on the direction where Li Xiaonan was no less than ten times.

With the cigarette butt in hand, Li Xiaonan finally decided to go back to the dormitory to carry out "easy chair reasoning", because he was not sure whether these stalkers were "spontaneous" by the detectives participating in the competition, or the chess pieces behind the scenes to lure him into the game, so he still avoided the act of startling the snake as much as possible.

After all, Li Xiaonan at this time is the one who really inherited the "mantle" of the late three detectives.

“...”

April 16, 2018, 18:00 p.m., Dia City Police College Boys' Dormitory Building.

Li Xiaonan was the only one in the dormitory writing and drawing under the lamp, and his roommates seemed to be busier than him as a detective.

Li Xiaonan had just completely summarized all the case information he knew on the scratch paper in front of him, and the extended logical lines of each clue were like a road to the truth of the case, but by coincidence, they were all artificially truncated.

After going through the facts of the case in his mind again according to the information he had sorted out, Li Xiaonan tore the paper off his notebook, threw it into the iron bucket placed on the balcony of the dormitory, and then lit them with a lighter.

Reflecting the light of the fire, which was not violent, Li Xiaonan looked out from the second floor where he was, the sky was slowly darkening, and night was falling.

"After so many days of delay, it's time to act." He thought to himself, "I can't let the wind bury that guy look flat again." ”

After putting on a black cap and carrying a pair of black gloves in his pocket, Li Xiaonan walked out of the door of his bedroom.

"It's best not to leave your fingerprints or cigarette butts with your own saliva in any strange place during this 'sensitive period.'" Li Xiao thought to himself.

“Beautiful wo

ld do

't lie to me~”

There were some nostalgic old songs playing outside the bedroom next door, Li Xiaonan paused for a moment, then stretched out his hand to lower the brim of his hat a little, and quickly disappeared into the corridor.

In front of the vending machine at the entrance of the dormitory, Li Xiaonan seemed to be waiting for something, slowly operating the not-so-sensitive touch screen, and as two bottles of sports drinks fell from the machine, the laughter of the boys came from the building.

"The basketball game is about to start, we need to hurry!"

"Yes, it's all Xiao Fei, he when he goes out, what's the matter, you're nervous about seeing that person as a cheerleader and dancing soon."

"Don't make a fuss!" The boy named Xiaofei turned half of his face red, and he hurriedly pushed and shoved a few people as if he had been told something in his heart: "Let's go, it's too late for a while!" ”

"Dumbo." Li Xiaonan threw the boy a bottle of drink and said hello.

"Brother Nan!" Xiao Fei responded with a big smile in surprise: "It's hard to watch the football game, brother, the cheerleading team is beautiful!" ”

Then he explained to the classmates around him: "Brother Nan, our senior brother, he took us electives last semester, and then we played together on the basketball court. ”

"Is that one going to be difficult?" Xiao Fei's friend smiled evilly and asked, "By the way, look at who Xiao Fei has a crush on..."

Before he finished speaking, Xiao Fei covered his mouth from behind his back, and several boys started fighting again.

"Let's go! It's time to make trouble again! Li Xiaonan hooked Xiao Fei's neck and blended in perfectly with their team.

"Why are you wearing a hat today, brother?"

"I didn't wash my hair, I didn't wash my face!"

“...”

18:30 p.m., gymnasium infield.

A cheerleading squad of girls is dancing with the mentally handicapped in the center of the field, holding shiny hand-cranked cheering flowers.

The spectators who came to watch the game sat in the stands around the stadium, overlooking the stadium from top to bottom. Xiao Fei, who was sitting next to Li Xiaonan, was staring at the girl who was the leader of the cheerleading squad with his eyes wide open.

"It's really good." Li Xiaonan looked at the girl's slender figure and thought to himself, and then he turned his gaze to Xiaofei, and couldn't help but lift the corners of his mouth: "But you look like a 'youthful' fan, you don't have a big play, buddy." ”

A few minutes later, the whistle blew for the start of the ball game, and Li Xiaonan could still feel the faint feeling of being watched by someone, so he had to endure his temperament and blend into the atmosphere of the audience, and shouted excitedly with the boys next to him, "I'm C, good ball!" ”

His plan was to take advantage of the end of the ball game to shake off the tails behind him through the crowd, and then climb over the fence at the back of the stadium, leave the police academy by night, and start investigating the last store Sun Mo consumed.

Ninety minutes later, everything went according to Li Xiaonan's plan, and he disappeared silently into the group when he came, blending smoothly into the crowd, and finally disappearing into the vast night.

Putting on the prepared gloves, Li Xiaonan climbed over the fence at the back of the venue with some difficulty and left the school smoothly.

Li Xiaonan supported his knees with his hands and thought for a moment, in order to prevent accidents, he looked around, then locked his eyes on a piece of garbage bags under the wall, and then walked over, found an empty beer bottle from the pile of black garbage bags, and finally returned to the position where he had climbed over the wall before, holding the beer bottle in both hands, and began to wait for the rabbit with some anticipation.

After about ten minutes, no one followed him out of the school, and the feeling of being watched was indeed gone, Li Xiaonan breathed a sigh of relief and casually threw the wine bottle back on the pile of garbage bags.

Just as he was determining the direction and preparing to set off overnight, the beer bottle collided with something in the pile of garbage bags, and there was a "dang" sound.

"This voice..."Li Xiaonan frowned, and the ghost approached the pile of black garbage bags again: "It's not like the sound of glass bottles colliding with glass bottles." ”

After hesitating for a moment, Li Xiaonan sighed, although he knew that it must be a pile of garbage, and in addition to beer bottles, there must be some discarded model figures or strange objects such as iron tiles in the garbage bag, after all, it is approaching the graduation season, and each dormitory needs to clean up all the old garbage treasured in the past four years of college life.

But in order to satisfy his curiosity, he looked around, and after making sure that there was no one, he "couldn't wait" to stretch out his hand to the bag of garbage.

"Hey, I'm C..." The moment Li Xiaonan opened the garbage bag, a smell of meat mixed with a fishy smell came to his face, making him scold.

After turning his head and taking a strong breath, through the not-so-bright moonlight, Li Xiaonan squinted and barely managed to see the contents of the garbage bag—what seemed to be the bones of something.

As if thinking of something, Li Xiaonan ignored this strange smell, hurriedly reached out to touch the inside of the plastic bag, felt the remaining warm temperature on the bones, and he touched a toe...

Without any hesitation, Li Xiaonan quickly took off his gloves, first dialed the phone number of the salted fish, and then the demon looked around in a daze, in the quiet night, there was a tree branch that was flashing with red light points.

After hanging up the phone with Officer Salty, Li Xiaonan dialed the phone of Feng Beifu again, and two busy tones of "beep" showed that the other party was on the phone.

Li Xiaonan gritted his teeth and scolded in a low voice: "Grass, it's still hot..."
