spirits in throat

Hearing the even breathing of the person in his arms, Zhou Ye lowered his head and kissed his hair. Just as he was about to get up, the person in his arms hugged him as if he had installed a radar and refused to let him go.

Zhou Ye smiled lightly, patted Rong Zhao on the back, and said softly to the sleeping man, "I won't leave."

When Rong Zhao didn't move, Zhou Ye tried to get up again, and as soon as his head left the pillow, Rong Zhao grabbed his neck and grabbed it back, and a low whisper fell into Zhou Ye's ear: "Don't leave me behind."

Zhou Ye's heart suddenly ached, as if he had been hit hard by someone.Rong Zhao regarded him as his family and would not let them leave him alone.

Zhou Ye had never seen such a clingy side of Rong Zhao. He lay down and hugged him, and whispered, "I will never leave you, never."

After Rong Zhao slept soundly, Zhou Ye got up from the bed, helped Rong Zhao cover the blanket, picked up the cigarette case and walked out the door.

At four o'clock in the morning, the east was already a little pale, and Zhou Ye stood by the cement fence at the door and lit a cigarette.

When he first met Rong Zhao, he knew that he had the tendency to kill, and he also saw with his own eyes that he wanted to kill Feng Mingchen.

Zhou Ye remembered very clearly that the murderous intent in Rong Zhao's eyes was neither fake nor impulsive, he really wanted to kill Feng Mingchen.If he hadn't appeared suddenly to stop him, he would really have killed Feng Mingchen.

Later on Valentine's Day, in order to reject him, Rong Zhao pushed him away, even saying such hurtful words.Gu Ming's body was found that night.

When everything is connected together, it is not difficult to infer that Rong Zhao committed a crime and probably killed someone.

And he admitted it.

After Zhou Ye finished smoking one cigarette, he took out a second one, tilted his head and nodded, thinking about it while looking at the house that had been washed by the rain.

Rong Zhao's mood was a little out of control yesterday, he didn't ask him too many details, and put him to sleep first.

Rong Zhao would not kill people casually, he must have killed the murderer of the Guan family extermination case.

In the best case, due to legitimate self-defense and Rong Zhao's status as a victim, the whole family died tragically.You don't have to go to jail to find the best lawyer.

Ke Rongzhao is a policeman, he will not be ignorant of the definition of self-defense.Even if he didn't know it when he killed him, he should know it now.

But he still chooses to lie in ambush, find out the other murderers, and wait for the opportunity to kill them, which shows that the probability of self-defense is not high, and Rong Zhao has indeed killed someone on his own initiative.

After smoking three cigarettes, Zhou Ye felt bitter in his mouth, put away the cigarette case, turned and entered the room.

After entering the house, he didn't dare to go to bed directly, so he went to the bathroom to brush his teeth first, for fear that Rong Zhao would dislike the smell of cigarettes in his mouth.

After dawn, Rong Zhao opened his eyes, and saw that his hands were tightly hugging Zhou Ye, and his legs were also on his body.Quickly retracted, pretending that it wasn't him who was pestering others.

Sensing Rong Zhao's movement, Zhou Ye waved his long arm, pulled Rong Zhao back into his arms, and said in a strong nasal voice, "I don't get up early today, let's go out to eat."

Rong Zhao sniffed, frowned slightly, sat up and looked at Zhou Ye: "You secretly got up to smoke in the middle of the night."

"I've already brushed my teeth, how do you still know?" Zhou Ye pulled Rong Zhao's hand, "Come here and sleep with me for a while."

After speaking, she sat up and threw Rong Zhao onto the pillow, and sucked on his lips: "Good boy, sleep again."

"Don't be so boring." Rong Zhao wiped his lips with the back of his hand, lifted Zhou Ye off his body, put on slippers and went to the bathroom.

After both of them finished washing, Zhou Ye turned to look at Rong Zhao while boiling water and said, "You are not allowed to learn to smoke like others in the future."

Rong Zhao sat on the floor and gently wiped the elephant ear bottle in his hand with a piece of cotton cloth: "I don't smoke, yesterday was because I was too anxious and didn't know what to do."

Zhou Ye plugged in the electric kettle, walked up to Rong Zhao, and sat on the ground facing him: "There are many ways to vent your emotions, and smoking and drinking are the least advisable."

"Don't stare at me, I'm different from you. You can't do this anyway."

While wiping the bottle, Rong Zhao looked up at Zhou Ye, waiting for him to continue to teach him how to vent and ease his emotions, when he saw Zhou Ye sitting closer and closer, and took the bottle in his hand aside.

The bottle failed to stand still and rolled on the ground, which made Rong Zhao's heart ache. He was about to say something to Zhou Ye when his lips were blocked by Zhou Ye.

The morning kiss has the fragrance of rose-flavored toothpaste, and the lips and tongue are full of sweet and sticky love.

Zhou Ye kissed Rong Zhao for a long time before letting go of him reluctantly: "There is also kissing. Kissing is also a way to vent emotions, which is good for longevity."

"It's not that I want to take advantage of you, it's based on science."

Rong Zhao was almost out of breath by Zhou Ye's kiss, and couldn't help but think of what Zhou Ye said before, he said that he can play the harmonica, so his tongue is very flexible.

At first I thought Zhou Ye was talking nonsense, but now it seems that he really knows how to play the harmonica, and he can play it very well, otherwise he wouldn't be so flexible.

Zhou Ye watched Rong Zhao's face turn red at a speed visible to the naked eye, suppressed the urge to kiss him again, and straightened his shirt.

Rong Zhao picked up the elephant ear bottle that rolled on the ground, carried it back to the closet, and locked it with his red dress.Sensing that there was someone behind him, Rong Zhao abruptly closed the cabinet door and locked it, while saying, "Don't think about that dress, I won't wear it for you to see."

Rong Zhao turned his head to look at Zhou Ye, and took a look at the other person's figure: "Don't think about secretly taking it out and wearing it behind my back, it's not your size."

Zhou Ye couldn't help laughing, and rubbed Rong Zhao's hair: "It's really my cutie."

The water boiled, and the two of them drank a glass of water each.

"It wasn't self-defense. I did kill someone." Thinking of the smell of smoke on Zhou Ye's body, Rong Zhao knew that he must be thinking about him in the middle of the night and worrying about him.

Rong Zhao told the story of how he met the murderer after the incident and how he killed him and buried him, with a fierce expression on his face: "I killed someone, and you stole a priceless antique, no one is better than the other. "

"Death or life is the same." He didn't say anything about his plan to take the blame for Zhou Ye. If he did, Zhou Ye would definitely not want to make trouble with him.

Zhou Ye felt happy after listening to Rong Zhao's words. He would live and die together, and they would never be separated for the rest of his life: "I will find you the best lawyer. Even if you kill someone, don't be afraid."

Rong Zhao looked at Zhou Ye: "What do you mean, even if you kill someone, I did kill someone in the first place."

"I went to find the man's bones one night last week. Although I didn't dig them out, I know he must be dead."

Zhou Ye recalled Rong Zhao's words, and slowly pondered: "You stabbed him in the heart first, and then buried him halfway up the mountain. Logically speaking, a seriously injured person would not have the strength to climb out of the soil to call for help." .”

But he still wanted to be lucky: "Didn't you not find that person's bones? As long as you don't find the bones, it doesn't mean that he is dead."

"You were young at that time, and you had just experienced that kind of cruel thing. It was inevitable that you would be overly emotional. It is normal to remember something wrong. You thought you stabbed his heart. If not, you thought he had no breath. , if he pretended."

Rong Zhao thought for a while: "I'll dig it another day."

Zhou Ye hugged Rong Zhao's shoulders: "I'll go with you. Anyway, I'm not a good person now, and I'm most suitable for digging up bones in the middle of the night."

After drinking good water, the two of them came out of the house together, and were going to have breakfast at the snack street at the back door of the Municipal Bureau.

Walking to the alley where they held hands yesterday, Zhou Ye stretched out his little finger again and hooked Gou Rongzhao's palm. This time he didn't let Rong Zhao hold him, but he held Rong Zhao's hand first.

Rong Zhao glanced at him: "One minute." After speaking, he walked to Zhou Ye's side, and when he got closer, others couldn't see that they were holding hands.

Zhou Ye was greedy, and refused to let go after a minute: "We are now on a boat, and we are really tied together. We don't know what will happen in the future. Now that we have the opportunity, we should get close some."

Rong Zhao withdrew his hand: "When we get to the game, don't talk nonsense, I don't like publicity."

He still has a lot of things to investigate and deal with, so if he can spend less, he can spend less.

After walking out of the alley, Rong Zhao turned his head and looked to the side: "I want to go to Xiaopang's house first."

Zhou Ye looked at the time: "Okay, this time happens to be the time for kindergarten drop-off, and there is no one at Xiaopang's house."

The two turned a corner and walked towards Xiaopang's house.

"Drip~woo~~drip~woo~~" the siren sounded from a distance, completely smashing the quiet morning.Rong Zhao and Zhou Ye looked at each other, and they both looked in the direction of Xiaopang's house.

The police car couldn't get in, so a team of police officers came running from outside the alley, led by Lin Hongze.

"Old Lin," Zhou Ye called Lin Hongze.

Lin Hongze turned his head and saw Zhou Ye and Rong Zhao, and he called out to Rong Zhao while striding forward: "A homicide has occurred ahead, come Rong Zhao."

It was only now that Zhou Ye remembered that Rong Zhao was in the second team now.

Zhou Ye rushed over together, listening to a small policeman tell Rong Zhao the specific situation.

At six o'clock this morning, a citizen who lived on Shilian Road got up early to go to work and passed by the door of his neighbor's house. He saw a large bloodstain on the ground, which flowed from the gate.

The citizen took a look inside the gate bravely, and saw his neighbor lying in a pool of blood, with knife marks all over his body, and he could no longer see clearly.

The citizen fainted from fright, and another neighbor passing by saw it and called the police.

Arriving at the scene of the crime soon, Rong Zhao saw Yang Guihua lying in a pool of blood at a glance. Her body was covered in blood, and the knife marks on her body were deep and thick, as if caused by a kitchen knife or a bone-stomping knife.

The clothes on her body were stripped and thrown aside, soaked in a pool of blood, the original color could no longer be distinguished, it was all dyed dark red.

Her eyes were wide and round, fixedly staring at a side room next to her, with desolation and reluctance in her eyes.

"Son, hurry to find the child, five or six years old, slightly fat, called Xiaopang," Rong Zhao strode towards the side room, calling Xiaopang's name.

Several police officers searched together with him, but they searched the whole house but did not find the child.

Soon, the forensic doctor arrived at the scene, Wu Hao put the forensic toolbox on the ground, put on gloves and started the autopsy.He looked at the turned flesh of the deceased, and even saw the white bones stained red with blood.

The forensic assistant on the side couldn't help but frowned: "This is the first time I've seen this. The murderer must be a beast. It's too cruel."

Wu Hao didn't speak, turned his head to look at Zhou Ye, and continued with the autopsy.

He had seen something as cruel as the corpse in front of him. Not long after he started working, the corpse was found in an unfinished building in the same condition as before.

That was Jiang Xiaomeng, the daughter of Zhou Ye's master Jiang Zhenming, when she died.

Lin Hongze directed the on-site investigation work, turned his head and patted Zhou Ye on the shoulder, without saying a word.

Wu Hao quickly finished the preliminary autopsy, handed a sample test tube in his hand to the assistant beside him, stood up and said: "The deceased woman, about 35 years old, was killed by a sharp weapon piercing the left artery from the back. She was stabbed 11 times. Fatal. The time of death was between 30:[-] last night and twelve o'clock in the morning."

"The deceased was sexually assaulted after death, and the suspect's sperm was collected. Others need further autopsy."

Leaving his own biological traces majestically shows that the murderer never thought of hiding his identity, and he didn't care or fear that his identity would be exposed.

The murderer was not an ordinary person, he was extremely brutal, and he was most likely a notorious wanted criminal, such as Ding Penghai.

An evidence officer came over with a transparent evidence bag in his hand, and handed it to Lin Hongze: "We found the murder weapon. It was found in the kitchen."

"There was blood on the door handle of the kitchen and the refrigerator, and the refrigerator was empty." After the murder, the murderer returned to the kitchen, threw away the murder weapon, and took away the food.

Rong Zhao heard Wu Hao's speculation about the death time of the deceased. He wanted to avoid Zhou Ye and come to Yang Guihua's house to investigate last night. It was 01:30 in the morning, Feng Guihua was already dead, and the murderer also fled.

Rong Zhao rubbed his temples, if only he had come earlier, maybe he could have caught Ding Penghai, Rong Zhao was almost sure that the murderer was Ding Penghai.

He continued to investigate Yang Guihua's house with his colleagues, remembering that he had been here before when Yang Guihua was not at home.

His purpose of living on Shilian Road was to find Ding Penghai, but he couldn't find it after searching everywhere.If Ding Penghai really lived in Yang Guihua's house, even if he was a wanted criminal who didn't dare to go out at ordinary times, it would be impossible for him not to go out once a year, five or six years.

Rong Zhao opened a utility room, looked around the room, and saw the creaking bed that Zhou Ye had slept on before, it was Yang Guihua who collected second-hand goods, before he had time shot.

Rong Zhao looked around, and when he was about to leave, he stopped suddenly. Didn't Ding Penghai live with Yang Guihua, he was imprisoned somewhere by Yang Guihua.

To be able to pass without being discovered for six years, and escape Rong Zhao's detection, this place must not be simple, and it is in Yang Guihua's home.

Rong Zhao stomped heavily on the soles of his feet, trying to find a space like the basement that could be used to imprison people.

Through a small window, Rong Zhao took a look outside.

It was a small unused garden, with a few lush loofahs planted beside it. The vines climbed up the wall, and a few green long loofahs fell down.

Rong Zhao went out from the utility room, stood by the garden and looked around, then went in and moved a large water tank to the side.

Below the water tank is a circular iron plate with a diameter of about one meter. The iron plate is very thick, about ten centimeters in length, and it is tightly wrapped with a layer of black sound-absorbing material.

Remove the iron plate, and there is a staircase leading to the ground in front of you, and a not-so-bright incandescent lamp is lit inside.

Rong Zhao did not act privately this time, and went back to report the situation to Lin Hongze.

Everyone hurried over.

Inside is a small room about seven or eight square meters, with a single bed, messy bedding scattered on the bed, a small table and chairs for eating, and a few books with worn edges on the side cabinet. radio.

A wrist-thick iron chain was tied to the head of the bed. On the other end of the iron chain was an opened lock, and a key was scattered aside.

Soon, the sperm extracted from the deceased's body detected the identity of the murderer, who was the wanted criminal Ding Penghai who had been on the run for many years.

In addition, physical evidence found a hair with follicles on the pillow where Yang Guihua's son Xiaopang slept. After DNA testing and comparison, it was confirmed that Xiaopang and Ding Penghai are father and son.

The man who raped Yang Guihua back then was Ding Penghai, who was imprisoned by Yang Guihua for nearly six years.

The mother of the deceased Yang Guihua was taken to the Municipal Bureau for questioning.The old man with gray temples cried out of breath: "My son is pitiful. He has no father since he was a child, and he is bullied every day. He didn't have a good life when he grew up, and he died so badly. My son! .”

After crying, the daughter started crying for her grandson again: "Where is Xiaopang, have you found Xiaopang, my poor grandson, he is only five years old."

The police officer who took the record for Yang's mother handed her a pack of tissues, got up and poured a glass of water on the table: "There is no sign at the scene that your grandson has been killed, we are doing our best to search for it, and will notify you as soon as we have news. "

Mother Yang fainted from crying because of excessive grief.

Except for those who were sent out to check and monitor Ding Penghai and those who were on important business, Lin Hongze called the others to the conference room.

Zhou Ye followed the crowd into the conference room and said he wanted to observe.

Lin Hongze knew about Master Zhou Ye, so he didn't say much, and let Zhou Ye sit casually.

Zhou Ye walked up to Rong Zhao and sat down beside him.

A policewoman combed through Ding Penghai's personal information and the cases he committed, and focused on the case of Yang Guihua's murder.

The deputy team said: "Judging from the date of birth of Yang Guihua's son Xiaopang, Ding Penghai raped Yang Guihua not long after the Guan family extermination case. Maybe, control Ding Penghai and lock him in the basement made of vegetable cellars."

"She chose to imprison Ding Penghai instead of killing him or handing him over to the police, which is most likely related to her childhood experience."

Lin Hongze nodded: "She herself has no father since she was a child, and she has been bullied all the time. She doesn't want her son to have no father. Ding Penghai's status as a murderer and rapist is not clear, so she can only imprison him."

A police officer said: "It's better not to have such a father. It's a timed bomb by your side. Why don't you just blow it up now? Yang Guihua was accidentally escaped from the cellar by him, and he killed him. Even his son None of them are missing."

Lin Hongze: "Your way of thinking is a normal person. Yang Guihua has no father since she was a child. She was bullied terribly, or she has unintentionally suffered some childhood psychological shadows, which made her have an obsession that children must have a father. Even if this father is a murderer. Yang Guihua needs this kind of psychological comfort."

Ding Penghai took a child with him when he ran away, and he would not run very far. He needed his real name to take trains, cars, and planes, and roadblocks were set up at highway intersections. Ding Penghai could not escape Dongyu City.

On the projection screen, a picture was cut into three pictures, which is the known crime committed by Ding Penghai so far.

On the left is Jiang Xiaomeng lying in a dirty unfinished building covered in blood.In the middle is a photo of the scene where Yang Guihua was killed.On the right are the seven people who died under Ding Penghai's machete in the Guan family extermination case.

Zhou Ye and Rong Zhao sat in the last row.

Because we need to watch the projection to ensure that the picture is clear, the blackout curtains are drawn, and only the two small spotlights in the front are turned on in the room, and the back is almost completely dark.

Zhou Ye held Rong Zhao's hand, and the two of them interlaced their fingers and held each other tightly.

Zhou Ye thought of Jiang Xiaomeng, not the brutally tortured corpse in front of him, but the freshest Jiang Xiaomeng in his memory, who would look good in a big old-fashioned school uniform, liked everything about hellokitty, and laughed When he is young, he will show a pair of white canine teeth, and will sweetly call him brother Zhou Zhou, and introduce him to the handsome guy.

Rong Zhao also thought a lot. Aunt Liu loved him the most in that house that used to be filled with laughter and laughter. She would secretly make snacks for him when his father punished him not to eat. The driver uncle was also very nice and said Teach him to drive when he is an adult, and say that the man who can drive is the most handsome, and women like to see men drive.

The room was full of people, others may be sympathetic, compassionate, or angry, only Zhou Ye and Rong Zhao felt the same.

They held each other's hands tightly, feeling each other's emotions and heartbeats the same as their own.

The person standing in front of the projector was still talking, but Zhou Ye could no longer hear clearly. He turned his head and found Rong Zhao's lips in the darkness, and they kissed deeply.

It seems that everything in the world has disappeared, and the world is in chaos, leaving only each other.

This is a gentle and long kiss without any passion. It can be between friends, family members, or lovers.

After the meeting ended, Zhou Ye and Rong Zhao came out of the conference room and walked to the safe passage next to them.

Zhou Ye looked at Rong Zhao, and lightly rubbed his thumb on his lips: "Lin Hongze already suspects you."

Rong Zhao nodded: "I know, but I can't leave now."

Lin Hongze led people to the scene of the Yang Guihua case this morning, but Rong Zhao was not notified at all before going to the police.It was Rong Zhao who just happened to meet and rushed over together.

Even for the arrest work after the case analysis meeting, Lin Hongze assigned Rong Zhao a trivial peripheral work, and did not arrange him at the forefront of the arrest.

At five o'clock in the afternoon, the police finally found a little trace of Ding Penghai near the large factory behind Shilian Road.

Rong Zhao was ordered to inquire and appease the families of the victims in the bureau, and had no chance to go out to investigate.

Lin Hongze led people to hunt him down for a long time, but Ding Penghai disappeared without a trace, as if he had evaporated from the world.If nothing else, the manhunt will continue through the night.

After get off work, Zhou Ye waited for Rong Zhao at the gate of the City Bureau building, saw him come out, and took him to the parking lot in the yard: "Follow me to see someone."

Rong Zhao figured it out: "Your teacher?"

Zhou Ye nodded: "Ding Penghai is not far away, and he will be arrested within 48 hours at most. I want to tell my wife the good news."

Looking at Rong Zhao again, he said softly, "I also want to introduce you to her."

Rong Zhao had been to a nursing home last time, and knew that Li Mingzhen's physical condition was very bad recently. In addition, her original will to survive was very low, and she probably couldn't last long because of her hatred for Ding Penghai, so Zhou Ye was in such a hurry.

Rong Zhao wanted to hug Zhou Ye, but the people around him were all colleagues who were off work. He put his hand on Zhou Ye's shoulder and rubbed him lightly.

Zhou Ye took out the car key from his pocket: "Dongzi's car, let's go back quickly, come back and catch Ding Penghai together."

After speaking, he opened the door of a car next to him, turned around and saw Rong Zhao standing still: "Get in the car."

"Sorry," Rong Zhao looked at Zhou Ye and said in a low voice, "I don't want to go, you go. Call me when you get back."

Zhou Ye walked up to Rong Zhao, stared into his eyes, and frowned: "Are you hiding something from me?"

Under normal circumstances, most people would not refuse to see a dying poor old man, let alone Zhou Ye's teacher's wife.

"No, it's getting late, hurry up," Rong Zhao glanced at the time, "I'll wait for you at home."

Zhou Ye was thinking about his wife and the arrest of Ding Penghai in his heart, so he didn't force Rong Zhao, and finally asked: "You have to tell me, it's not because you don't want to admit your relationship with me that you don't want to see my teacher's wife."

Rong Zhao didn't expect Zhou Ye to be thinking this: "I'm not the kind of person who just throws up his pants and refuses to recognize anyone. I'm responsible for you."

Rong Zhao looked at Zhou Ye, feeling sour and distressed in his heart. Zhou Ye felt so insecure about their relationship and his feelings, it must be because he was hurt too deeply before.

Zhou Ye opened the car door and went in, and Rong Zhao followed in the passenger seat.

Zhou Ye turned to look at Rong Zhao: "Aren't you..."

Before he finished speaking, his mouth was blocked. Rong Zhao pressed Zhou Ye on the back of the chair and kissed him: "You don't need to have any doubts about my feelings for you. I don't want to go because I don't want to admit that I am with you. your relationship."

Zhou Ye touched the lips kissed by Rong Zhao. This was the first time he was pressed on the seat and kissed. He didn't like it because he was pissed off.

Thinking of Zhou Ye's identity as a thief, Rong Zhao did not forget to tell him: "Be careful, and don't panic when you are questioned by the police. The German police haven't found you yet."

Zhou Ye knew in his heart that he spent money to buy the elephant ear bottle, and he would never be arrested because of this in his life. Being protected by Rong Zhao every day like this, he felt both guilty and moved.

Rong Zhao was about to open the car door to go out, but Zhou Ye pulled him back, leaned against the back of the chair and kissed him.

Zhou Ye's strength was great, his upper body was almost completely pressed on Rong Zhao's body, and he used ten times more force than when he kissed him to win back.

Rong Zhao was so breathless from the kiss, he grabbed Zhou Ye's shirt sleeve with his hand to let him loosen it.

Zhou Ye kissed for a while before letting go. While helping Rong Zhao tidy up his messy clothes, he looked at Rong Zhao's red lips from being bitten, and said in a hoarse voice, "When Ding Penghai is caught, take care of him." Rest for a few days and let your husband love you well."

Not long after Zhou Ye drove away, Rong Zhao hailed a taxi and went to the nursing home.
