Zhang Lin met Gao Yan's cannibalistic gaze, and said in a daze, "My dad beat me."

The small picture in Gao Yan's mind was shattered, he coughed violently, and said, "Stand still, I'll rub the medicine on you."

Zhang Lin looked at him suspiciously: "Officer Gao, what were you thinking just now?"

"what?"

Zhang Lin shook his head, he raised his head, Gao Yan condescendingly rubbed the potion on him, the cool potion rubbed on his forehead for a stinging pain, Zhang Lin snorted twice, Gao Yan's gaze changed again and again, suddenly he poured the potion onto Zhang Lin Lin stuffed his hands, and said in a deep voice, "Wipe yourself!"

Zhang Lin had no choice but to wipe the small mirror next to him, and Gao Yan went to the door to smoke.He came in after smoking a cigarette, and Zhang Lin said, "Officer Gao, can you find me some clothes? I want to wash them."

Gao Yan didn't speak, but waved his hand, telling him to wash it quickly.

The bathroom is small, and the outside of the window is covered by a tall tree. The orange-red sunset passes through the shadow of the tree and prints on the wall of the bathroom, leaving a mottled shadow of the tree.Zhang Lin closed the glass window and turned on the light. The warm water felt comfortable on his body. He sorted out the information in his mind while taking a shower.

It is very likely that Li Xiu'e is pretending to be crazy, or she has recovered.That day she rushed out and fought with the workers, trying to prevent the construction site from starting. Why?And where she reminded the key, it was obvious that she wanted Jiang Xiaofei to find out something.

What is Jiang Jianping afraid of, and what role does Xu Bo play in this?Does Jiang Xiaoyun's disappearance have anything to do with them?Thinking about it, a message suddenly popped up in his mind, the missing girl among the few girls he met when he was selling jelly at the beginning, did he really go back to his hometown?

If not, it is also missing.Thinking of this, Zhang Lin felt that Jiang Xiaoyun's disappearance was not an exception.Not an exception...then there will still be people missing!

His thoughts stopped here, because the water in the shower suddenly became icy cold, and Zhang Lin burst open with a hiss. In fact, it was okay to take a cold shower in summer, but Zhang Lin was used to hot water. He looked down at himself full of water. He soaked himself in foam and shouted outside: "Officer Gao, why isn't the water heater producing hot water?"

Gao Yan was standing outside holding his clothes, the bathroom door opened suddenly, Gao Yan looked over, and immediately looked away again.He threw his clothes on the shelf next to him, and without a word began to check the water heater that couldn't get hot water.

Zhang Linguang stood on the side rubbing the bubbles on his body, thoughts in his mind were chaotic and complicated, suddenly he caught a glimpse of a small red bright spot shaking on the wall from the corner of his eye, Zhang Lin tilted his head, and many gunshots that appeared on TV flashed through his mind In the picture, he subconsciously threw Gao Yan down.

Almost in the next second, the glass of the window shattered with a 'bang'.

Gao Yan turned over abruptly, pinning the person under him, followed by several 'bang bang bang' shots, and the small bathroom was smoking like a gun/powder keg.After a while there were footsteps outside and a few hasty gunshots, Gao Yan jumped up and said, "Lie down and don't move." '

He rushed out, the balcony was outside, he turned over and jumped off the balcony.They were on the second floor, and the shooting below had stopped.Surrounded by colleagues from the police force, there was a man lying under a tree with several blood holes on his body, and he was already dead.

It was quiet under the tree, and the colleagues of the police force were still on guard, having confirmed that there was no one else around.Gao Yan stared at the corpse under the tree and said in a deep voice, "Go back to the office for a meeting!"

Someone went to lift the dead body on the ground, someone followed Gao Yan, Gao Yan took two steps to stop, he looked back at the dormitory on the second floor, ordered two police officers and said, "You two go to my room on the second floor to guard."

Even though he knew it wasn't for Jiang Xiaofei, what happened just now made him terrified.

Veins were throbbing on Gao Yan's forehead. This man came to kill him. He sneaked into the dormitory of the police force and didn't think of going back alive. They knew the location of his dormitory. Thinking of this, Gao Yan immediately took out his phone and called the third Call him, let him go to his dormitory to watch Jiang Xiaofei.

The third child was eating in a small restaurant outside, and he already knew about Gao Yan being ambushed in the police dormitory, so he stood up, kicked the corner of the table and scolded his mother. He went to the dormitory to look at Jiang Xiaofei.

The third child growled, "They're coming after you!"

Gao Yan: "I know, I'm not at ease if you watch him for me."

Don't worry, don't worry, is he your son or something, what the hell can happen to him in the dormitory!The third child's face turned red and he held back his anger. The phone on the other end had already been hung up. Yang Jing came out of the toilet holding his waist. He had a bad stomach and had diarrhea several times.

In the toilet, they had already received a notification from the police force, and the two settled the bill and walked outside with a calm face.

……

Zhang Lin rinsed off the bubbles on his body, and stayed obediently in the dormitory.The signal here is much better than that in the mountains. Zhang Lin took out his mobile phone and looked through the forum diary. When he found Jiang Xiaoyun's diary, he said, "A few guests came to the house today. They are my father's comrades-in-arms when he was in the army."

Comrades, is it possible that Gao Zhendong is among them?Who else?If Jiang Jianping has contact with the people in the villa, who else?That middle-aged man with glasses?Could they possibly know each other?

Did Gao Zhendong really take revenge from the prisoner he caught?He also died in Oak Mountain. Is it possible that it was not at all, but that he found something serious enough to kill him, just like someone wants Gao Yan's life now.

There were two knocks on the door outside, the dormitory door was pushed open, and Yang Jing came in carrying a packing box.

He threw the packing box on the table and rushed into the toilet with a stride.

Looking at his back, Zhang Lin was confused and his stomach was rumbling. He took two mouthfuls of food, walked to the door of the toilet with the lunch box and knocked, "Officer Yang, I think there are still people missing. You should send more People go into the mountains."

As soon as he finished speaking, Officer Yang's pager rang, and he gave a feed, followed by the sound of a flushing toilet.

The toilet door opened, Zhang Lin took a step back with the meal, he couldn't finish the meal.

He put down the lunch box and frowned: "I don't think my sister's disappearance is an exception. I once met a few girls who often went to the mountains to play. At that time..."

Before he finished speaking, Yang Jing interrupted: "Isn't the food delicious?"

Zhang Lin: "Um, I'll eat later."

He didn't say he couldn't eat because he smelled the toilet.Seeing Officer Yang's pale face, he asked casually, "Officer Yang, what's wrong with you."

Yang Jing said I had diarrhea, he looked at him for a while, and then went to look at the rice: "Eat quickly, the captain asked me to watch you."

Oh, Zhang Lin, he followed Yang Jing into the house, and continued: "At that time, a girl among them went out from the mountains, and she left her job and returned to her hometown the next day. Big things are more important than salary, do you think it is possible for her to lose..."

Yang Jing turned around, "Xiao Fei, don't worry about these things, eat your food!"

Yang Jing looked at him, his expression was not very good. After a while, his expression eased, and he explained: "Now the busy people in the police force are on their backs, and the captain asked me to watch you."

Zhang Lin was stunned, he stopped talking, picked up the lunch box and took a mouthful of rice.

He put the mouthful of rice in his mouth and stared at the photo on Gao Yan's desk in a daze.The photo is of three people, wearing military uniforms, including Gao Yan, Yang Jing and the third child when they were young.

Yang Jing was standing by the door with a gloomy expression.

Zhang Lin took another mouthful of rice and chewed it slowly.Suddenly he felt something flicker, Zhang Lin turned his head: "Officer Yang, why are you taking pictures."

Yang Jing: "Send it to the captain, so he can rest assured."

Zhang Lin yelled, and Zhang Lin took another bite of rice. He said he couldn't eat anymore and wanted to go to the bathroom.So he threw the lunch box aside, went into the bathroom, and closed the door with a 'snap'.

He sat on the toilet seat, found out Gao Yan's cell phone number, hesitated for a while and didn't call.

When he came out of the toilet, Yang Jing finished smoking a cigarette, and his mood eased a lot. He patted Zhang Lin on the shoulder and said, "I'm sorry, brother was in a hurry just now. You said that your sister disappeared. Any other clues?"

Zhang Lin finished the conjecture again.Yang Jing was silent for a while, just as he was about to say something, suddenly his pager rang again.

Yang Jing picked it up, what was said on the other end.Yang Jing's complexion changed drastically, and he suddenly looked at Zhang Lin.

Seeing that he hung up the phone, Zhang Lin quickly asked, "What's the matter?"

Yang Jing: "Your father turned himself in. He said Officer Gao was killed by him."

High police officer?Which police officer Gao, it took him a while to realize that the officer Gao he was talking about was Gao Yan's father, Jiang Jianping's friend, the police officer who was said to have been killed in Oak Hill by a prisoner he had captured.

……

That night Zhang Lin slept in Gao Yan's dormitory, Gao Yan didn't come back, Zhang Lin asked to visit the bureau, but Yang Jing didn't agree.

In the early morning of the next day, Zhang Lin woke up. He heard the sound of a toilet flushing in the bathroom. He sat up from the bed and watched a person come out of the bathroom. He stood on the balcony for a while before turning around and entering the room. .

Because it was against the morning light, Zhang Lin couldn't see his expression clearly at first, only felt that he was full of hostility, and when he got closer, he saw that his face was dark, and the hair on his forehead was hanging wet, and he was still looking down. Drops of water.

He sat down on the edge of the bed and lit a cigarette. There were several "clicks" and "clicks", but only a few sparks sprang out of the lighter.

Zhang Lin looked around, touched a lighter next to the pillow, and handed it over.Gao Yan didn't pick him up, but just persistently tormented the lighter that couldn't be turned on. Zhang Lin put the lighter down, and after a while he said, "My dad...how did you say it?"

He thought a lot last night, and always felt that there was a lot of strangeness in this matter.It started when he found the phone number, then Jiang Jianping drove him away like crazy, was attacked in the bathroom, and Jiang Jianping surrendered himself.

Only half a day has passed.Zhang Lin frowned and continued: "My dad has asthma, he limped a leg, and he was out of breath when he walked. Why..."

Before he finished speaking, the lighter in Gao Yan's hand was thrown against the door with a 'snap'.

"You want to ask how he was killed! How he was killed! Well, let me tell you, he drugged him, chopped him up with an axe, packed him in a snakeskin bag, and threw him into the mountain den like garbage!"

He yelled out the last sentence, his eyes were bloodshot as he stared at Zhang Lin, Zhang Lin couldn't say anything.Because his head suddenly hurt violently, a pool of bright red blood flashed under his eyes, making his stomach tighten, and he shook his head with a pale face.

The door was knocked twice, Yang Jing and the third child pushed the door in and looked at the two people in the room worriedly.

Yang Jing walked over to Zhang Lin first and said, "Xiao Fei, you go to my room first."

Zhang Lin nodded. He went out and stood outside for a while, then said, "Officer Yang, can you take me to meet my dad?"

Yang Jing shook his head regretfully at him.

Zhang Lin turned around and said, "Then I want to go home."

When Zhang Lin returned to the mountain, the yard was full of police cars, surrounded by tourists watching the fun, and the elder sister Liushen Wuzhu stood beside the vegetable field, her eyes were already swollen from crying.

Zhang Lin pushed aside the crowd and went in. He saw several police officers digging a hole under the felled plum tree with a hoe. Zhang Lin frowned and looked at that hole. chicken.

Soon, the dead chicken was dug out.They continued to dig down, and after 10 minutes, they found an axe, two white gloves that had been stained black with blood, and a set of bloody clothes. He turned and went into the house.

The door of Jiang Jianping's room was still tightly locked. Zhang Lin opened the door with the key and went in. He crawled directly under the bed and pushed the box under the bed away.

After knocking and listening to the sound, it was obvious that there was a bit of space underneath.Zhang Lin climbed out again and found a screwdriver to pry open the concrete floor through the gap. There was indeed something underneath, it was a wooden box.

Zhang Lin didn't hesitate to take out the wooden box and open it. It was full of money. It looked like it had been stored for a long time, and the box still smelled of fresh insecticide.It seems that in order to prevent them from being bitten by insects, Jiang Jianping often turns on and sprays insecticides.Zhang Lin was quite surprised by this result. He thought he would find some useful clues.

Zhang Lin put the box back, and without stopping, he turned and walked towards Li Xiu'e's house. After Jiang Jianping surrendered, the eldest sister was in a state of confusion, fearing that something would happen to Li Xiu'e, she immediately locked it up.

There was a lot of noise outside, but the hut at the back was quite quiet. The sun slanted into the wall on one side of the alley. Two hens were bathing in the mud in the shadow under the wall. Zhang Lin walked to the window. The chicken clucked away.

The room was dark, Zhang Lin called out from the window, "Mom?"

The people inside didn't answer him, Zhang Lin continued: "Are you alright? I want to know Xiaoyun's whereabouts."

There was still no sound inside, Zhang Lin sighed, and was about to leave when he suddenly heard a voice crying and laughing inside, "Retribution...hahaha, retribution...all retribution..."

Zhang Lin leaned back to the window again: "What retribution?"

There was no sound inside again, Zhang Lin thought for a while, he took out the notebook with a light blue cover that he asked for back from Yang Jing from his pocket, shook it in the window and said: "This is Xiaoyun's notebook, I Found it in my room."

After saying this, the room was silent for a moment, and suddenly there was the sound of a 'bang bang' chair being knocked down, and pale and thin hands stretched out from inside and grabbed Zhang Lin's clothes.

"give me!"

Zhang Lin was caught and staggered, and his forehead hit the red brick wall.

He frowned and backed away, pulled Li Xiu'e's hand away, stood a little further away, opened the diary and began to read.

[May 7, weather: sunny]

A few guests came to the house today, and they were comrades-in-arms of Dad when he was in the army.When Mom was getting boiling water in the kitchen, the kettle exploded somehow.Mom's entire thigh was burned red, and I was so scared that I cried, but Mom comforted me and said it didn't hurt.Dad asked me to go to the neighbors to borrow burning plaster. I wanted to go, but I didn't dare.I'm so useless, Dad hit me.

Several uncles persuaded Dad, who said he drove out to buy burn ointment.

[May 7, weather: sunny]

Today, my mother's legs are full of blisters, and it hurts at first sight. Mom said it doesn't hurt, how can it not hurt!I cried again.

……

When reading the previous paragraph, Li Xiu'e didn't respond yet.When he read 'I cried again. ’ Suddenly Li Xiu’e’s ‘woo woo woo’ cry came from inside, and Zhang Lin stopped.

Continue to ask: "Mom, tell me who he is."

No one answered, Zhang Lin was at a loss, and continued to ask, "Does he wear glasses?"

The crying inside stopped.Zhang Lin was stunned, and threw out all his conjectures: "Does Officer Gao's death have anything to do with him? I started to faint last year. It can't be for no reason. I must have seen something, right?"

There was no movement inside again, Zhang Lin waited for a long time, and asked several questions, but there was no sound inside.Only then did Zhang Lin give up.

At noon, the sun was scorching hot, the police outside had already left, and the tourists had almost dispersed. Zhang Lin went out and turned around to go to the reservoir.He talks to the system as he walks.

Zhang Lin: "Jiang Jianping went out with the foreman. He must have made that phone call outside. I gave the number to Gao Yan. The police force's technology should be able to eavesdrop on Jiang Jianping's conversation. I really want to know what was said on the phone? "

77: "With the current situation of Police Officer Gao, he should not disclose it to you."

Of course Zhang Lin knew this, and he didn't say anything more.The reservoir was still the same as usual, there were many fishermen, Zhang Lin entered the management office, the glass door was locked tightly, and Uncle Xu was not there.The bottles in the yard are piled up like a mountain, and it looks like it hasn't been tidied up in a long time.

After Jiang Jianping was arrested, Oak Mountain seemed to have regained its calm, and the police rarely came and went into the mountain.That night, the night was as dark as water, Zhang Lin and the elder sister sat together and had a tasteless dinner, and the elder sister delivered the meal to Li Xiu'e.

Zhang Lin sat in the yard and drank two bottles of functional drinks to boost his courage. He got up and walked into the dark night.Talk to 77 while walking.

Zhang Lin: "I'm still a little scared, why don't you tell me a joke."

77 dutifully told a joke, Zhang Lin hahaha, laughed as he walked.It shocked a person who rode a bicycle into the mountains to fish at night.

Zhang Lin looked at the man running away, and told 77 to stop talking.Turning around and going up the mountain, the outer wall of the villa was so high, Zhang Lin walked around the base of the wall twice but couldn't find a place to climb up. There were birds cooing in the grass, which made him flustered.

After a while, 77 suddenly reminded: "It seems that the iron gate is not locked."

Zhang Lin: "...why didn't you say it earlier."

He went back to the front door, but the iron door was indeed ajar, Zhang Lin pushed it open a bit, and walked in sideways.Suddenly, something in the darkness dragged him over, before he could cry out in surprise, his mouth was covered by a big sweaty hand.
