Red Dust Tune: Cherry Falling King's Heart

Just as the investigation by Zhong Wanjun and others was proceeding smoothly, the night of London, which had been quiet for a week, finally rang out again with terrifying screams.

"What's the situation?" Zhong Wanjun put on his medical gloves and asked Ken who was beside him after showing his ID and successfully stepped into the security cordon.

"This time it was a corpse discovered by a sightseeing group," Ken said. "The Ripper Street tourist group, led by some Jack the Ripper researchers, specially selected several corpses killed by Jack the Ripper in the early hours of the morning. A 'revisit' of the place where the prostitute's body was found. When they arrived at 25am in the Hanbury Street, which was the closest to the morgue of the third prostitute who died that year, The body was found."

Zhong Wanjun remained silent, and squatted down to examine the corpse in front of him.

The beautiful and capable female forensic doctor Molly Hooper is conducting a preliminary autopsy—she moved in instead of John after John moved out of 221B Baker Street.

Lestrade was standing next to Zhong Wanjun. When he received the report, he happened to be looking for information at the police station in the Whitechapel area, so he arrived at the scene earlier than Zhong Wanjun who came from Scotland Yard and had already finished looking at the corpse.

Molly described the preliminary autopsy results to the two: "There were blood spots in the fundus of the eyes, and the preliminary judgment was that she died of suffocation. Her throat was cut open with a sharp knife, and her abdomen was also dissected. At the same time, her intestines were thrown out of her right chest, and part of her The uterus and kidneys were removed."

Enduring the nausea brought by the smell of blood, Zhong Wanjun turned to Lestrade and said, "Same as the third deceased in 1888?"

"Exactly the same." Lestrade said helplessly, "Annie Chapman (Annie Chapman) in 1888 also had these scars."

After gesturing to Molly to wrap up the body and take it back for detailed inspection, Zhong Wanjun stood up, and policeman Michel reported the latest investigation on the identity of the deceased to him and Lestrade: "Delia Carter, female, 44 years old, the front desk foreman of the Charles Hotel, has been She is unmarried. The specific situation will not be known until her colleague who has summoned her tomorrow."

Zhong Wanjun nodded, and asked again, "What about the sightseeing group that found the corpse?"

Michel said: "On the other side of the street outside, Sir, you should have passed them when you drove up. The ambulance is there too, and a lot of tourists are in shock. Our people are taking notes for them. Tonight Most of the tour group are Chinese, tourists from Taiwan, they look very young, they should be a group of adventurous young people."

Zhong Wanjun said, "Take me there, I want to personally ask them about their situation at that time."

"OK, sir."

Just as Zhong Wanjun was walking towards the ambulance outside the police cordon, a phone call stopped him.Zhong Wanjun took out his mobile phone and looked at it, frowning habitually, it was Mycroft.Why is he calling at this juncture?Is it because of the case?

Zhong Wanjun said to Lestrade and Michel: "Go and ask for the transcript first, and I will come right away."

"Okay, let's go first."

Zhong Wanjun went to a secluded corner to pick up the phone, Lestrade continued to walk outside, passed through the police cordon, and came to a tall girl with short hair.The girl's face was pale, obviously frightened, but she didn't put on a blanket, but held the hand of another tall, long-haired girl and patted her to comfort her.A round-faced boy with black hair stood beside the two of them.

Michel said: "Excuse me, ladies and gentlemen. This is Greg Lestrade, Inspector Greg Lestrade of the CID of the Metropolitan Police Department. Now he will take notes for you."

Letrade said: "I am sorry for what you saw tonight. I am sorry that the London I serve has left such a bad memory for all of you who came from afar. OK, now I hope to do it for you as soon as possible Good transcript, so that everyone can rest early and forget about this nightmare."

"Officer, please start taking notes, we will definitely cooperate." The tall girl with short hair said.

"Very well, then I shall begin with you," said Lestrade, "May I ask the lady's name."

"My name is Lei Ting." The tall girl with short hair said.

§

He simply told Mycroft that he was handling a case and it was really inconvenient to answer the phone, so Zhong Wanjun hung up the phone quickly.

As soon as he turned around, he was about to go to Lestrade's place to ask the transcript with him, when Ken walked over: "Sir, you need to go to the site inspection side."

Zhong Wanjun looked towards Lestrade, and saw that he was questioning someone. Because the person being interrogated was sitting, he was blocked by the investigators, and Zhong Wanjun couldn't see.Seeing Michel recording, Zhong Wanjun thought that the two over there should be able to handle it, so he followed Ken to the scene.

The corpse has been removed, and the white line is outlining the shape of the poor woman. The dark red blood is mixed with part of the white line, making it look particularly cloudy and depressing.

"What's wrong?" Zhong Wanjun asked.

"Sir, we found a strange bloodstain here." Alex at the scene pointed to the wall beside him and said.

Zhong Wanjun followed what Alex pointed, and knelt down to check.I saw a dark red blood stain at the base of the wall next to the corpse, about 4cm x 2.5cm in size, and the shape was very strange.

"It's not the splash type..." Zhong Wanjun frowned.

Alex said: "Yes, unlike the previous two murder cases, the blood splatter there is very obvious, and the place where the body was found should be the scene of the first crime. But the blood here..."

"Looks like I accidentally touched it." Zhong Wanjun continued, "So... this should be the place where the body was dumped, not the scene of the first crime!"

Zhong Wanjun stood up and said: "Albert, Oken, you come with me to get all the surveillance video tapes around here; Ken, you go to inform Greg and ask him to ask the witnesses if they found any suspicious vehicles; Alex, You continue your investigation here, and then we will meet directly at the police station."

"Yes, sir."

§

Lestrade finished asking for the transcript, but saw Ken walking over.

"Sir."

"What's wrong?"

"Holmes Sir would like to ask the witnesses who walked all the way before discovering the body, did they find any suspicious vehicles?"

"Suspicious vehicle?" Lei Ting thought about it carefully, and then said: "Sorry, I really don't remember. Qiu Qiu, have you noticed?" She turned to the tall girl with long hair beside her, that girl was Fur ball.

Qiu Qiu was holding a cup of hot cocoa, her face was still pale, obviously she hadn't recovered from the horrific scene just now. "No...I have a headache right now, and I really can't think of anything."

Lei Ting patted her on the back reassuringly: "It's alright, it's alright." She then turned to the round-faced boy at the side: "Zhi Ge, how about you?"

Zhi Ge scratched his hair and recalled distressedly: "It was very late when we came, and the streets were basically empty. There might be a car occasionally, but I really didn't pay attention to that. "

Saying is tantamount to saying nothing, Ken thought dejectedly.

There was no despondency on Lestrade's face, he had expected such a reply.After seeing that Michel had added the transcript, he handed the three transcripts to Lei Ting, Qiu Qiu, and Zhi Ge respectively: "Please take a look at the three, if there is no problem, sign your name, and I can send someone to take you back to the hotel to rest gone."

"Thank you for your kindness, but our friends will come to pick us up, so we don't need to bother the police officer." After the incident, Zhi Ge called Gu Zhan who stayed in the hotel and did not come out for "night walk". Gu Zhan said He will come right away.

"Okay, then Michel, you send the three out, stay with them, keep them safe until their friends come to pick them up," Lestrade ordered.

"Yes, sir."

Lei Ting, Qiu Qiu and Zhi Ge signed their names one after another, and the three followed Michel outside.

Walking out of the crowd of medical staff and police personnel, Michel accompanied the three of them and stood there waiting.There are other people in this sightseeing group who haven't finished taking notes, and the three of them are the first to leave.

The four of them didn't wait long.Soon, a taxi drove up to the three of them.After the car stopped, a tall boy got out of the car.

"war!"

"Gu Zhan."

It was Gu Zhan who came.

"Qiu Qiu, Xiao Ge, Lei Ting, are you all okay?" Gu Zhan asked anxiously.God knows how anxious he was when he received Zhige's call, secretly hating himself why he didn't come out with Qiu Qiu tonight.

"We're fine." Lei Ting said, Qiu Qiu and Zhi Ge nodded in agreement.

Gu Zhan supported Qiu Qiu, and looked at her suspiciously, pale, tired, frightened, how could she be fine? !

Michel couldn't understand Chinese, but he roughly knew that the man in front of him was the friend the three witnesses were waiting for, so he said, "Miss, sir, since your friend is here, I'll go first. "

Lei Ting thanked politely: "I'm really sorry for wasting your time."

Michel said: "It's nothing, this is our duty as a *police*. By the way, the two ladies and Mr. Zhi may have to stay in London for a while so that we can ask at any time. I hope this will not bring you Too much trouble. But I can assure you that within three days, if you don't invite everyone to the police station again, you can leave London."

Lei Ting nodded: "No problem. Our address and contact information have been left on the record, and we will definitely cooperate with the police investigation."

"Then, thank you all. Goodbye."

"Goodbye."

After bidding farewell to Michel, Lei Ting, Qiu Qiu and Zhi Ge followed Gu Zhan into the taxi.

The taxi driver drove steadily, Lei Ting sat in the passenger seat, Zhi Ge, Gu Zhan and Qiu Qiu squeezed in the back row.

After briefing Gu Zhan about what happened, Zhi Ge sighed, "That woman really died a terrible death, and that murderer was too cruel."

Gu Zhan shook his head: "It's not cruel, it's just perverted. I didn't expect that the second generation of Jack the Ripper, which has been raging in London these days, would actually let us run into each other. Now we can only hope that the police in London can catch him as soon as possible." Stop this murderer, don't let the murderer get away with it like he did 100 years ago."

"By the way, Gu Zhan," Lei Ting turned around and asked, "Where are Linglong and Yanyan?"

Gu Zhan replied: "When I received your call, Hua Linglong was already asleep. He has been busy with cooperation these days, so I didn't wake him up. Yanyan seems to have caught a cold. After you left, I started to sleep. Some had a fever, took medicine, fell asleep again, and I didn't call her."

"That's good," Lei Ting rubbed her forehead with a headache, "The Hua family is in a big crisis this time, and Linglong can't sleep well these days because of the cooperation, so don't let him worry about us. Let him concentrate on negotiating."

Gu Zhan nodded slightly: "I think so too."

Lei Ting stopped talking, but put all her body weight on the seat, leaned on the back of the seat, and closed her eyes tiredly. Because of this, she didn't see the person getting off from the silver Bentley in front of her after she pulled over.

Zhong Wanjun parked the car on the side of the road, and got out of the car with two subordinates.He stood on the steps of the street, holding a map in his hand, with his head down, looking at the map assigning tasks to Albert and Oken, completely oblivious to the taxi driving past him.In the taxi, Lei Ting closed her eyes and rested her mind. Zhi Ge turned her head and looked at the scenery outside the window in the opposite direction to Zhong Wanjun. On Qiu Qiu who was already asleep beside her.At this time, as long as Gu Zhan looked up and looked out the window, he could see Zhong Wanjun.

The two groups of people, just like this, passed by by a coincidence arranged by fate.

§

After getting all the video tapes, Zhong Wanjun returned to the police station with Albert and Oken.

It was already past 06:30 in the morning.London's latitude is high, so it's not yet dawn, CID's office is still brightly lit, and the strong smell of coffee fills the whole room.

Lestrade sorted out the transcripts, Alex and Zhong Wanjun looked at the photos of the scene and the evidence collected, and the rest took a few boxes of surveillance video tapes and watched them.

Unknowingly, the hands on the clock pointed to eight o'clock, and Alex's stomach started to growl—everyone has been busy for more than four hours since receiving the report.

Zhong Wanjun put down the autopsy report that Molly had just delivered, and said, "Everyone, put down your work first, let's go eat something first, and then continue when we come back."

"Of course, God knows how hungry I am." Alex stretched exaggeratedly, then rubbed his belly, making his colleagues laugh.

Suddenly, Lestrade sniffed and said, "It smells so good, what is it? Have you smelled it?"

When Lestrade said this, several police officers began to sniff their noses like dogs. Indeed, a scent wafted from far to near.

Zhong Wanjun smelled the familiar aroma of rice, and he knew it. He walked quickly to the door, and when he opened the door, he saw Qing Ying who raised her hand and was about to knock on the door.

"Qing Ying? Is it really you? Why are you here?" Although he had already guessed in his heart, when he actually saw Qing Ying appearing in front of his eyes, Zhong Wanjun still felt both surprised and happy.

"Bringing you breakfast." Qing Ying raised the food box in her hand, "Last night when I came to bring you supper, you received a call from the police after eating half of it, I guessed that you would be busy today. I forgot to eat breakfast. So I picked up some and brought you some food." The guard downstairs saw her coming in the middle of the night last night and knew that she was Sam Holmes' girlfriend, so this time he readily left let go.

"Hey, hey, do you want to ignore me like this?" Another voice came from behind Qing Ying, and Zhong Wanjun turned his head to look: "Sister?"

Zhang Qiu looked displeased: "I'm such a big living person poked here and you actually just saw it now?! Zhong Wanjun, do you want to have a girlfriend so you can't see your sister?"

Both Zhong Wanjun and Qingying blushed.Zhong Wanjun said nonchalantly, "Sister, why are you here?"

Zhang Qiu said: "There are so many people in your CID, can Qingying alone provide food for everyone?"

Zhong Wanjun hurriedly took some of the food boxes from the two of them, and Zhang Qiu and Qing Ying followed him into the office.Zhang Qiu said in English openly and generously: "Thank you for your hard work, we are here to bring you breakfast."

There was a burst of cheers in the office. Lestrade asked Zhong Wanjun: "I have met Miss Leung, may I ask who this lady is..." He looked at Zhang Qiu.

Zhang Qiu said: "My name is ChoHolmes, and I am Sam's sister."

Lestrade suddenly realized, he remembered the scene when he saw Zhong Wanjun for the first time, when Sam was talking to Sherlock, he seemed to have mentioned a person named "Cho", it turned out to be her.So she should be Sherlock's sister.

Lestrade knew Qingying's identity, but that didn't mean others knew it too. With his eyes wide open, Alex asked Zhong Wanjun: "Sir, may I ask who is the beautiful lady next to you..."

Zhong Wanjun was expressionless: "ReneeLeung..."

Before he could finish speaking, Alex came up to hold Qing Ying's hand, shook it vigorously, and at the same time pushed Zhong Wanjun away who was standing next to Qing Ying: "Hi, Miss Liang, my name is Alex, Alex Rimes Waltz."

"Uh...you, hello." Qing Ying didn't expect this British man to be so enthusiastic, she was a little embarrassed for a moment, and she stammered greetings.

"It's my luck to see such a beautiful lady after a busy night. Oh, God is so good to me. Seeing Miss, my exhaustion seems to have disappeared..." Alex held Qingying's hand hand, using an exaggerated aria to say something that made everyone's skin crawl.Qing Ying stood there awkwardly, not knowing whether to interrupt the overly enthusiastic man in front of her, or to take her hand out first.

As for Zhong Wanjun, from the moment Alex held Qing Ying's hand, his face was icy, and the whole body was exuding a sinister air-conditioning. Except for Alex, everyone else felt that the temperature in the room suddenly dropped several degrees. , and quickly dropped below zero.

Seeing Zhong Wanjun being squeezed away, his eyes almost pierced two holes in Alex's back, Lestrade shook the icicles on his body, and patted Alex kindly: "Alex."

Alex turned his head impatiently: "What are you doing?" Didn't you see Grandpa striking up a conversation?

Leatrade pointed behind Alex, Alex turned his head, met Shangzhong Wanjun's signature cold and murderous gaze, and suddenly his legs softened: "Hehe, S...Sir..."

Qingying finally broke away from Alex's hand, she walked around Alex, walked to Zhong Wanjun, reached out to hug his arm, and then smiled embarrassedly at Alex.

Alex was dumbfounded.

Zhong Wanjun gave Alex a cold look for the last time, then pulled Qing Ying directly into his exclusive inspector's office in the whole big office, and slammed the door behind him.

Lestrade patted Alex on the shoulder and said "distressed": "Dare to pick on the horse of your boss, young man, you are really brave."

Alex only felt that his eyes were dark, and it seemed that his future life would be a disaster.

Zhang Qiu smiled "puchi" and looked playfully at the opaque door of the inspector's office.Xiaojun didn't take a food box in just now, should she knock on the door now and bring it in?I still don't want it, it's immoral to interrupt someone's "doing good things", um, just wait another 2 minutes.

§

Entering Zhong Wanjun's office, as soon as the door was closed, Qing Ying felt a tightness around her waist, and then turned her body for no reason, and was pressed against the door by Zhong Wanjun.

Zhong Wanjun held Qingying's slender waist in his fiery hands, lowered his head and kissed Qingying fiercely.Because Qingying was unprepared, her teeth were not even a trace of defense, she was easily pried open by Zhong Wanjun, allowing him to drive straight in.The hot lips and tongue attacked the city without restraint, repeatedly sweeping back and forth in her mouth recklessly and tirelessly.

With the deepening of this kiss, the two of them were almost stuck together tightly from top to bottom.Behind Qingying is the cold door panel, but every place in front of her that touches him is as hot as burning.Qing Ying felt as if she was in the middle of an iceberg and a sea of ​​fire, being pinched from front to back, with no way out.

After an unknown amount of time, Zhong Wanjun let go of Qing Ying.Qing Ying was dizzy from being kissed, her legs almost went limp, she could only cling to Zhong Wanjun's shoulder, trying her best not to let herself fall to the ground in embarrassment.

Zhong Wanjun gently stroked Qingying's swollen lips with his thumb, and he clearly saw that Qingying's pupils contained only his own image.In her eyes, only me.This realization made Zhong Wanjun feel a little more at ease.

"Next time another man shakes your hand, you don't have to worry about being polite, just shake it off." Zhong Wanjun said domineeringly.

Qing Ying said weakly: "But when Qi Tian and I dance, he often wants to hold my hand..."

Zhong Wanjun glared at her fiercely.

Qing Ying shrinks her neck, uh, she definitely didn't step on a mine on purpose to see Wan Jun jealous, um, definitely not!

A knock on the door sounded at the right time: "The two inside, are you still eating?" It was Zhang Qiu's voice.

Qing Ying shrank back on the chair behind Zhong Wanjun shyly, Zhong Wanjun touched his nose, and resigned himself to opening the door.

"Eat something." Zhang Qiu handed him the food box.Zhong Wanjun looked past Zhang Qiu, and saw that other colleagues in the office had already started to feast, and the smell of food filled the whole room.

"Thank you, sister." Zhong Wanjun took the food box with a blushing face, and then quickly closed the door.Really, it is the most annoying to have a sister who is so understanding of "brother".

After closing the door, only Qing Ying and Zhong Wanjun were left in the office.Qing Ying had already cleared Zhong Wanjun's desk to a vacant space, Zhong Wanjun put the food box on it, opened it and took out the food inside.

Qing Ying and Zhang Qiu cooked light white rice porridge.The two considered that Zhong Wanjun and the others might have seen a super bloody scene, so they decided to make some light breakfast to buffer it. After all, the breakfast of western food is basically only sandwiches and the like, and the ham and tomato sauce inside are easy to eat. It makes people have bad associations. Although the white rice porridge is a bit bland, it is perfect for these policemen who have just returned from the scene; It can warm the stomach.

In addition to white rice porridge, Qingying also boiled corn, while Zhang Qiu fried some vegetables and eggs, which was simple and nutritious, especially Qingying's corn.Qingying uses sweet corn, which is ingeniously boiled in salt water.White porridge has a light taste, and it is complemented with slightly salty corn. Moreover, corn is a coarse grain, so eating it in moderation can nourish the stomach and make you feel full.

It was only now that Zhong Wanjun felt that he was really starving. He held the bowl and chopsticks and swallowed in a daze, and the bowl of porridge soon bottomed out.Qing Ying poked the corn with her chopsticks and handed it to Zhong Wanjun, who took it and gnawed it unceremoniously.

Qingying looked at him with a smile: "Eat slowly, don't choke."

Zhong Wanjun replied vaguely, but he didn't stop talking.

After eating, Qing Ying prepared water for Zhong Wanjun to rinse his mouth, and handed him a handkerchief to wipe his mouth. She was thoughtful and considerate in everything.Zhong Wanjun took it for granted, and it wasn't until he lost Qingying a few years later that he realized how blessed he was back then.

"Okay, I won't bother you with the case, you can concentrate on your work." Qing Ying packed up her things and was about to leave.

"I'll take you downstairs." Zhong Wanjun got up and picked up the coat beside him.

"No, I can't recognize such a small road?" Qingying smiled, "Don't worry, I will go with Senior Sister Qiu, nothing will happen. Just concentrate on your work and don't worry about me."

Zhong Wanjun smiled warmly, and gently kissed Qing Ying's forehead.Qingying, it's good to have you.

After leaving the office, other colleagues also ate a lot, and the whole meal took no more than 7 minutes.There is no way, the police never know whether a case will happen in the next second, and it is their instinct to solve everything quickly.

Qing Ying and Zhang Qiu packed up the food boxes, greeted each other and left, while Zhong Wanjun and the others continued to work.

"Greg, show me the witness's transcript." After reading the autopsy report, Zhong Wanjun wanted to see the scene when the body was found.

"OK, here, I've sorted it out." Lestrade wanted to hand over a few transcripts to Zhong Wanjun, and Alex, who had just courted Qingying, took the transcripts from Lestrade's hands in a doggy manner. He offered it to Zhong Wanjun, with a fawning and flattering smile on his face.Uh, I just hit up a conversation with my boss's girlfriend, he can already foresee how miserable his life will be in the future...

Zhong Wanjun glanced at him coldly, and after taking the transcript, he gave Alex a look of "Get out of here." With a mournful face, Alex rolled back to his desk to work.

Zhong Wanjun glanced at Alex's back angrily, then lowered his head to look at the transcript in his hand, but was stunned when he saw the signature at the end of the transcript——

Ting Lei.

Lei Ting.

Zhong Wanjun's pupils dilated suddenly.

The author has something to say: Will the two meet each other, will they, will they, will they, will they...
