Personal protection

[Don't be curious about the source of inspiration]

Zhou Cheng only felt a chill welling up from the soles of his feet, even after leaving the inquiry room, he still felt thorns on his back.

It wasn't until Li Xiaoran's hand came up that Zhou Cheng realized that his palm had lost its warmth.

"She..." Zhou Cheng's voice was a little hoarse.

"It's not your fault." Li Xiaoran clenched his hand.

If Du Ruo really has a mental problem, she is indeed very pitiful.

But it was really hard for Zhou Cheng to sympathize with her. If she really did it, she would be innocent, so wouldn't Siming be innocent?Isn't Liu Manjing innocent?Isn't Zhang Chunyi innocent?

It was directed at myself again.

Zhou Cheng had an indescribable feeling in his heart, he couldn't be said to be a pervert, could he?

As soon as Li Xiaoran said this, Li Xiaoran became unhappy, "Do I look like a pervert?!"

Sergeant Black Cat was very aggrieved, and stretched out his hand to rub Zhou Cheng's buttocks, "You can't call me a pervert just because I rubbed your buttocks."

Zhou Cheng laughed out loud, thinking why didn't he discover that Li Xiaoran had the attribute of pistachio before?

However, he will also quickly show Sheriff Black Cat that butt rubbing is not just a random thing.

If you rub it, you have to be responsible.

Zhou Cheng just sat at the door of the crime scene, thinking wildly, thinking about the case and couldn't help but think about Li Xiaoran.

Until Sun Xian poked his head out, "Brother Zhou, do you want to come in and see the scene?"

"Me?" Zhou Cheng stood up, it would be best to work with Li Xiaoran, but, "Is it convenient?"

"My colleague called up the video, which can prove your alibi." Sun Xian chuckled, "And when you are here, the boss is more inspired."

Why didn't he know that he still had this function?Zhou Cheng took the shoe covers and put on the gloves, thinking that the police should give him an award for the best police officer.

Sun Xian raised the security line to let Zhou Cheng in, and said to him, "Really, the boss is very active when you are here, although he is usually very active. Oh, I am stupid and can't say it, but I feel so good like Good brothers like you are really rare." Sun Xian said very sincerely.

Zhou Cheng: "..." As expected, the person brought out by Li Xiaoran has the same brain circuit.

When Zhou Cheng entered, the bloody smell had dissipated a lot, and the corpse had been removed. At this moment, Li Xiaoran was squatting on the ground to investigate the scene.

"How about it?"

Li Xiaoran was a little surprised, but he knew what was going on after taking a look at Sun Xian, thinking that his subordinate was really as smart as a monkey.Little did he know that Zhou Cheng had just made a completely opposite judgment in his heart.

"I think the circle around the body is weird."

"You mean drawing circles is superfluous."

Li Xiaoran couldn't figure it out, "Not only this, I think even this circle is very strange."

"Is it too formal?"

Is such a regular circle to cover up something?Li Xiaoran was puzzled.

Zhou Cheng also had no clue at all, looking at the room, he suddenly felt something strange.

Zhou Cheng walked over and looked up at the closet, which was higher than the one in their room.

He moved a bench, touched it with his hand, and found that the top dangling circle was a temporary wooden board.

After tearing apart the temporary boards, Zhou Cheng shouted, "There is a ladder hidden horizontally on the top of this wardrobe!"

He didn't think a cleaning staff in a five-star hotel would tidy up like this, and also need to hide in this way.

"Ladder..." Li Xiaoran murmured, clapped his hands suddenly, pointed to a piece of blood that had dried up on the ground, and there was a rectangular vacancy on it, he thought he knew what kind of trace it was.

"Is there any blood on the legs of the ladder?"

Zhou Cheng quickly checked the legs of the ladder, and said firmly: "Yes."

When the ladder recovered, Li Xiaoran climbed to a certain height and stopped suddenly. He seemed to be able to imagine the murderer climbing up the ladder to admire after killing Zhang Chunyi.

As for the oval circle drawn around the corpse, Li Xiaoran also had a terrifying thought.

"Zhou Cheng..."

"Do you think that circle is symmetrical?"

"Symmetry." Zhou Cheng was a little confused.

Li Xiaoran looked gloomy, "What if the murderer's purpose is not to hide something, but something else?"

"What?" Zhou Cheng didn't quite understand.

"What do you think... what number is this like?"

Zhou Cheng gestured in the palm of his hand and froze.

The two looked at each other, both showing a wry smile.

The number "0"...the countdown is not over yet.

"1" is not the end, "0" is.

But then both of them thought of Du Ruo's words at the same time, she said that the countdown was not over yet.

So is this "0" the end or the beginning?
