dead innocent

Overnight, three shootings and the bombing of the State Guest Building occurred one after another.The biggest and most appalling thing was the explosion of the State Guest Building, which affected almost all the rich, powerful and famous people in Yinjiang City.Although the bomb was discovered in time and no one was killed, the negative impact was indeed huge.Yinjiang City's wealth circle and political circles were almost crushed. Since last night, the media has been scrambling to report. By the next morning, a fast-moving radio station has launched a special documentary. They think that the Yinjiang police are not big enough, and the citizens are not enough. Panic, as if the sewage is not turbid enough, the report is repeated every moment in different ways, and the situation expands and expands until it reaches the turbulent water surface of the Yinjiang River.

The Police Department is under unprecedented pressure, panicked public opinion and superiors demand to solve the case as soon as possible and reduce the impact of the situation. This contradictory request makes the newly appointed Director Chen really feel that the official chair under his butt is not easy to do. .After raiding several meetings overnight, the Police Department decided to cooperate with multiple police departments. The Yinjiang City State Security Department and the Dongcheng District Criminal Investigation Detachment dispatched troops to set up a temporary team led by Chen Zhiyang.

And according to the time limit given by the mayor for solving the case, one week.

Before Chu Xingyun came to the meeting, he was ready to seize power. Unexpectedly, the result announced by Director Chen at the meeting separated the criminal investigation team of the Municipal Bureau, and only gave him a sentence: "Work together and assist from the side." . 'This is very interesting. To put it bluntly, I don't need him.Whether Director Chen doesn't use him or Guoan doesn't use him, the water here is deep.Although Director Chen didn't reveal anything to him, but after thinking about it for a while, Chu Xingyun understood that it was not Director Chen who didn't use him, but He Ying who didn't use him.

At the meeting, Chu Xingyun intentionally looked at Chen Zhiyang's face, and seeing that Chen Zhiyang was still restless than him, and the meeting hadn't ended yet, he frowned.After the meeting was over, he immediately followed Director Chen.

Chu Xingyun left the meeting room, went to the stairs to smoke a cigarette, and smoked for a while, before seeing Chen Zhiyang coming out and following the smell of smoke to find him.

The two of them have a tacit understanding, and they know what the other party is worried about without preface.

Chen Zhiyang said: "It's Chief He's meaning, my second uncle is useless." He said suspiciously: "Why did He Ying kick you out? Why doesn't he use you?"

Chu Xingyun originally wanted to ask him if he knew the situation of the navy who died on Sanfu Road the day before, but when he heard him ask this question, and saw his face covered with clouds and mountains, he thought that this was another person who was kept in the dark by Guoan of.

Chu Xingyun held the red cigarette butt, pondered for a while with his eyes downcast expressionlessly, then habitually wiped out the cigarette butt with his thumb, and said with a smile: "If you don't need it, don't use it. It's not a big case. The police force in the whole city twisted into one If you tie a thief with a rope, what do you ask other ordinary people who need the help of the police uncle to do?"

As soon as he finished speaking, his cell phone rang, and it was Qiao Shishi calling.

"Boss, I brought Mr. Zhou directly to the unit."

Chu Xingyun glanced at Chen Zhiyang on the opposite side, and sneered: "Take it to Dongcheng District, this case has nothing to do with us, and Team Leader Chen will be in charge."

He deliberately emphasized Team Leader Chen, but Chen Zhiyang was so disgusted that he stretched out his arm and snatched his mobile phone: "Qiao Meiren, please do me a favor and send Zhou Quliang to our team. Hey, it's me, I'm Chen Zhiyang."

After finishing speaking, he threw the mobile phone into Chu Xingyun's arms: "Why are you losing your temper at me, and say something bad to your second young master!"

Chu Xingyun put away the phone, hehe smirked twice, and said: "In this way, I will send you someone, which can be regarded as completing the task of 'assisting from the side' assigned by Director Chen."

"Who?"

"Master Qiao."

Chen Zhiyang squinted at him: "You want to send an undercover agent?"

Chu Xingyun waved his hands again and again: "If you want to say this, the relationship between us is too opposite. It's just a support for you. Why is your thinking so complicated?"

Compared to his heart, Chen Zhiyang sighed to himself: "Be an undercover agent, you can go undercover, you can't turn your back on you."

Director Chen called to urge him to leave. Chen Zhiyang greeted him and was about to leave. Chu Xingyun grabbed his shoulders as soon as he lifted his foot.

Chu Xingyun hugged him, went downstairs with him, lowered his voice and laughed: "For the sake of accepting my spies, my brother will remind you."

"Speak straight."

"Beware of those people in Guoan."

He didn't explain what he said, but Chen Zhiyang could tell that he was referring to He Ying.

"What do you say?"

"Anyway, you should be careful. I reckon that you will not be able to find out the inside story when you cooperate with Guoan this time."

Chen Zhiyang intuitively felt that there was deep meaning in his words, and was about to ask in detail, when he saw a policeman in a police uniform in the lobby on the first floor calling Chen Zhiyang: "The car is waiting, Team Leader Chen."

Chu Xingyun pushed him forward, waved his hands and smiled: "See you, Team Leader Chen."

Chen Zhiyang frowned, and walked away step by step.

Chu Xingyun stood in front of the police station building, watched the black car with the words "Guoan" drive past, then took out his mobile phone and called Fu Yi.

"How about it?"

As early as in the meeting, he realized that Director Chen's words were wrong, so he sent a text message to Fu Yi, asking him to run through the three shooting scenes before the national security blocked the scene.Sure enough, not long after the text message was sent, Director Chen ordered that only the criminal investigation team of the city bureau be allowed to "assist from the side", making it clear that he was not allowed to participate.

Over there, Fu Yi just got out of the car and walked briskly in the cool and windy neighborhood in late autumn morning, and said, "I just came out of the scenes on Jinling Road and Ninghuai Road, and now I'm going to the first crime scene."

"Any clues?"

"It's tricky, I'll tell you when I get back."

Chu Xingyun hummed, then hung up the phone and drove away.

Both the shooting and the bombing were accepted by He Ying, and he had nothing to do now, so he went to the hospital with a certain mentality of "fake public affairs for personal gain".

He found He Cheng's room according to the address He Ying gave, and when he arrived at the door, he found that He Ying was the only one in the ward sitting on the sofa by the window looking at his mobile phone.He Ying was alert when he saw that there was suddenly a person at the door.

"The busy man shows up."

He Ying curled the corners of his lips, speaking in a calm and deep voice, which sounded amiable.However, Chu Xingyun saw ridicule in his eyes.

"Where's He Cheng?"

He stood at the door and asked.

"bathroom."

He Yingdao.

Chu Xingyun walked in and stopped in front of him, staring down at him, as if he was getting to know him again, and finally smiled slightly: "Don't you have anything to tell me?"

He Ying picked up the phone, raised his head and looked at him with a smile: "What?"

Chu Xingyun said leisurely: "The Guobin Building exploded last night."

"I know."

"Three shootings"

"I know that too."

"...He Cheng is injured."

"Tell me something I don't know."

Chu Xingyun said with a sullen face: "I think you know everything, but you don't know why you didn't let me participate in the investigation of these two cases."

He Ying asked without answering, "Which one do you want to participate in?"

"This incident involving He Cheng."

He Ying's smile was a bit playful: "Do you think the explosion in the State Guest House was only He Cheng's attack?"

Chu Xingyun hugged his arms and smiled very carelessly: "Don't pretend, I know you are so suspicious."

He Ying seemed to have listened to his words, nodded his head and thought about it for a moment, then smiled and said: "It makes sense."

After finishing speaking, he continued to look at his mobile phone, and Quan pretended that there was an empty space in front of him.

The corners of Chu Xingyun's eyes twitched, and he felt that his city mansion was deep, and the appearance of oil and salt was particularly annoying, so he said coldly: "He Cheng was injured, you don't even know what I was feeling when I went to the State Guest Building to look for him last night .”

He Ying lowered his head and said with a slow smile, "If you persuaded him to leave Yinjiang, wouldn't he have just escaped?"

Chu Xingyun is funny: "You still blame me?"

"It's not too late, it depends on how you choose."

Chu Xingyun narrowed his eyes slightly, and said: "It seems that not only can you not tell the truth to me, but you can't even tell the truth from your own brother you want to protect."

He Ying confessed: "That's right."

Chu Xingyun was silent for a moment, then slowly squatted down in front of him, dragged his chin and looked at him and asked, "Is this a secret?"

He Ying paused, then bent down and leaned in front of him, curled his lips and said in a low voice, "Yes, it's a secret."

Chu Xingyun lowered his eyes, covered half of his sharp eyes, and continued to ask: "Is it the secret of your return to Yinjiang, or the secret of you taking him away?"

He Ying smiled: "You can treat it as a secret between me and him."

Chu Xingyun said: "No, he has no secrets from you, and you are the only one who hides from him."

As he said that, Chu Xingyun suddenly lowered his arms, leaned over to approach him again, and asked in a voice that he could only hear: "Is it your secret, or his secret?"

He Ying said nothing, but looked at him with heavy eyes.

Chu Xingyun smiled lowly: "Let me guess, He Cheng has no secrets to you, but you have secrets to He Cheng. And He Cheng doesn't know that you have secrets to him. Is your return accidental? No, You are like a god of death bringing bad luck to Yinjiang, you know what will happen to Yinjiang, but you don't want me to participate in the investigation, why? Because I can't control it? Or do you just want to block this case, just Like that dead navy? You want to hang out the truth and take He Cheng away. Did you really just want to protect him by taking He Cheng away? Why do I think he wants to hide him?"

He Ying still didn't speak, his eyes trembled slightly.

Chu Xingyun saw his reaction in his eyes, stared at him closely, the corner of his lips slanted, and continued: "You want to hide He Cheng because—is the secret hidden in He Cheng?"

He Ying started a silent contest with him, mainly based on silence. He admired Chu Xingyun's ability to conquer people's hearts, and he really has a way of interrogating prisoners.But he got it wrong, he wasn't his prisoner.

He Ying smiled flickeringly, and said softly, "Look back."

When Chu Xingyun's neck felt cold, he suddenly had a premonition and looked back. He Cheng was wearing casual clothes, with his hands in the windbreaker pockets, standing motionless at the door, looking at him with a gloomy face. them.

He hurriedly wanted to stand up, but was hugged by He Ying.

"Don't cry, don't cry, brother misses you too!"

He Ying hugged him, patted him hard on the back, and then pretended to say a nonsense that made people think.

Chu Xingyun jumped up as if being hugged by a cactus, accusing him with angry eyes: You fucking want to kill me? !

He Ying stood up calmly, straightened his clothes, and answered him with his eyes: Yes.

Chu Xingyun's eyes twitched, he grabbed He Ying's arm and dragged him to the door: "You go out first!"

Throwing He Ying out, Chu Xingyun was about to close the door, but he stretched out his hand against the door.

He Ying glanced at He Cheng who was staring at them through the crack of the door, and said with a low laugh: "He Cheng is younger than you, you have to show the demeanor of being an older brother and let him order."

Chu Xingyun didn't understand why this old man put on a hypocritical face of brothers and friends, and said vigilantly: "What do you want to say?"

He Ying lowered his voice: "Just now I helped him change his clothes, those on his neck, chest, and waist... dare you say you didn't do it?"

Chu Xingyun looked at him coldly, his ears turned red slowly, and sneered: "I am really wronged, Young Master He, should I take off my clothes now, you see which of us has the worst 'injury' ?”
