ex-husband high energy

Chapter 45 S2.E24. Food chain

"Is he, are they still alive?"

Levi's voice trembled a little.

Zong Ming noticed it, came over and shook his shoulder, saying, "He's still alive."

The warm power came from his shoulders, and Levi felt inexplicably more at ease, his heartbeat stabilized, and his breathing calmed down.

"They may have been anesthetized by some kind of drug. I don't know what's in those drip bottles." Zong Ming didn't touch the victims, and said to him, "Captain Liu, come over immediately, go up and pick him up, don't disturb the tenants here .”

Levi went upstairs as he said, and waited at the door for a while, and sure enough, he saw Captain Liu coming with a criminal policeman.

"found it?"

"Inside, there is a basement in the northwest corner." Levi's brought them to the scene, and Captain Liu gasped: "Fuck! This is scarier than the morgue!"

Zong Ming said in a low voice: "They are still alive, we have to transfer them to the hospital as soon as possible to see if they can be rescued... Don't disturb the people here for the time being, I guess the landlord can't get away with it, so we have to control it immediately."

Captain Liu fully understood, and immediately took out his mobile phone to call someone.Half an hour later, a group of medical personnel sneaked in quietly under the leadership of the criminal police, and carried the four unconscious missing persons out on stretchers.The forensic department entered the site and began to inspect the site.

The landlord was lifted out of the bed by Captain Liu himself, and he was stuffed into a police car and taken away without even cleaning his eyes.Xu Xiugu was caught even earlier, when she drove the Beetle out of the village in the city, she was arrested by the criminal police and brought back to the police station for custody.

When the sky was dawn, it began to rain lightly. Levi's and Zong Ming came out of the basement. The tenants in the yard were getting up one after another. Some vegetable businesses had already opened, and they took the three-wheeled electric vehicles out of the yard. When he saw the two strangers, he only glanced curiously and left.

In this kind of urban village, most of the tenants are migrant workers, and no one knows anyone, but it brings a lot of convenience to Captain Liu and his work.

"Let me drive." Zong Ming asked Levi to take the co-pilot, took out a can of coffee from the glove box and handed it to him, "Wake up, are you sleepy? Or go to the back seat and sleep for a while?"

Levi shook his head, he didn't sleep all night, but he was a little excited, just felt his temples throbbing.

"I'll buy you a pancake later." Zong Ming carefully looked at his face, a little worried, but didn't say much, just stroked his hair.

Levi's is used to his touch, and sometimes he feels quite at ease: "I'm not hungry, I'm a little sick, let's eat slowly at noon... Where are we going now?"

"The police station." Zong Ming said, "Captain Liu is interrogating Xu Xiugu, let's go and listen."

When the car was on the road, Levi opened the coffee and took a sip to cheer himself up. He still doesn't understand why Xu Xiugu listened to Qi Ran. Seeing that she spoke and acted logically, she didn't seem to be hypnotized. How could she help Qi Ran for no reason? What about hiding hostages?

This is a felony!

Arriving at the police station full of doubts, Captain Liu's interrogation had just begun, and Levi and Zong Ming entered the monitoring room next to the interrogation room as usual.

Xu Xiugu is a person who is very knowledgeable about current affairs. When the criminal police brought her into the police station, she knew everything had been exposed, so she simply asked and said something.

She met Qi Ran at the "Treasure Loving Women" mutual aid meeting, and because the two had very similar experiences, they soon fell in love with each other and became close friends in the boudoir.

Xu Xiugu graduated from Xiyan City Medical College and worked in the Provincial Maternal and Child Health Hospital for six years. Her performance is very outstanding, and she won the "March [-]th Red Banner Bearer" twice.After giving birth to her eldest daughter, her husband's business started to pick up. In order to maximize the interests of the family, she resigned and returned home. She took care of her husband and raised her children, and became a well-known happy housewife in the circle of mothers.

After her daughter went to kindergarten, she wanted to return to the workplace, but she was pregnant with her son again, so her plan to return to work was shelved, and she continued to stay at home as a housewife.Her husband's career is booming, mother-in-law and mother-in-law are more expensive than their children, and their temper is getting worse. She is the only one in the whole family who "eat idle food", so she is reduced to the bottom of the food chain. Under the instigation of her parents-in-law, even her daughter treats her "incompetent" Mom dismissed it.

Just when she was feeling helpless and doubting her self-worth, she came into contact with "Treasure Loving Women". The forum and mutual aid will help her rebuild her self-confidence, coordinate the relationship between husband and wife, suppress the wicked mother-in-law, and improve the parent-child relationship...everything is going well When she discovered that Qi Ran joined the club and faced the same problem as her, she immediately passed on her experience to her without hesitation.

"I'm not breaking the law, am I?" Xu Xiugu's legal concept is terribly indifferent. She doesn't know if it's true or just pretending. She still thinks that she is just doing a friend a favor. God. I don’t know anything, I just give them infusions every day according to her instructions. The medicines are all proportioned and can maintain normal signs.”

"What anesthetic did you give them?" Captain Liu asked.

"There's no anesthetic." Xu Xiugu said, "It's just energy, vitamins, etc. If you don't believe me, you can check."

"Then why are they all unconscious?"

"I don't know, they were already like this when I saw them." Xu Xiugu said, "Everything was arranged by Qi Ran, and I was only responsible for giving them infusions every other day."

Things were a little weird, through the single-sided glass, Zong Ming frowned, took out his phone and sent Sang Han a message.

Levi's noticed that he developed it publicly in UMBRA, and turned on his mobile phone to see that he was asking Sang Han to check the situation of Xu Xiugu and her husband in recent years, including the relationship between husband and wife, asset changes, and so on.

Does this matter have anything to do with Xu Xiugu's husband?Levi felt that the case that had already been clarified had once again become confusing and confusing.

In the interrogation room, Captain Liu continued: "What is your relationship with the landlord? Does he know that Qi Ran hid the missing person in the basement?"

"The landlord is my brother-in-law, and he doesn't know anything." Xu Xiugu said, "I borrowed the basement for Qi Ran. I only told him not to let anyone in, and I didn't tell him what it's for."

"..." Captain Liu's face was a bit ugly. It wasn't Xu Xiugu who got them into the basement, and Qi Ran never left the sight of the police when the disappearance happened, so who the hell got them there?Could it be that they went into the basement by themselves, made themselves unconscious and then lay on the plank bed for more than ten or twenty days?

What kind of supernatural story did you make up!

Xu Xiugu couldn't ask any questions, so Captain Liu went to the landlord's interrogation room.This Xu Xiugu's "brother" is even more ignorant. Until now, she doesn't know that the four people hiding in her basement are the missing persons in the "Young Scientist Selection" that has been making a lot of noise recently.

"I don't know anything!" The landlord looked confused, "Xu Xiugu told me that she would borrow my basement for a while, and told me not to let anyone in. I thought it was her man's valuables—— They have borrowed that place before, and nothing like this has ever happened!"

"Are you sure you've never seen these people?" Captain Liu threw the photo of the missing person to him, "You have to look carefully before answering me!"

The landlord looked at it for a long time, then poured tea on his hands to wash off his eyes, and said with certainty, "I haven't seen it."

After the morning of the interrogation, everyone felt that they had seen a ghost.Captain Liu was also one of the first two seniors, and asked people to invite Zong Ming and Levi's to his office to discuss the case with them.

"I've already checked the landlord, and he probably doesn't know the inside story." Captain Liu said, "This man is a tile-eating, unemployed, experienced mahjong player. He starts playing mahjong from the moment he wakes up every day until midnight and then Go to sleep, there is no time to commit crimes. So the biggest question now is how did these missing people get from the missing place to the basement."

Zong Ming's cell phone rang. He opened it and looked at it, and suddenly said, "Xu Xiugu is lying."

Captain Liu raised his eyebrows.Zong Ming said: "The relationship between her and Qi Ran is far from being a close friend in a boudoir. In a sense, they are partners and a community of interests." He sent a message to Captain Liu, "Look at this, This was a car accident in Hongtaoyu in July this year. A pregnant woman drove down the river and drowned in the water. It was later proved that she was not driving under the influence of alcohol and the car had no problems. Finally, the police concluded that the pregnant woman had pregnancy-induced hypertension. Vertigo, driving accidents, car crashes."

"The car she was driving was purchased in June this year, and she used Xu Xiugu's husband's secondary card." Zong Ming sent him another message, "During the accident, Qi Ran and Zhao Yigang happened to be on vacation at Hongtaoyu. It is their check-in record at the resort."

The news pictures were shocking, Captain Liu passed his words in his mind for a while, and said hesitantly: "You mean..."

Zong Ming brought out the second case: "In October last year, a woman in Linshi poured hot oil on passers-by for no reason many times, causing many people to be scalded. After the police intervened, she claimed that she lost her mind and could not control her behavior. She was finally sent to a mental hospital by her family. She is the first secretary of Xu Xiugu's husband's company, and the house where her family lives is still under the name of Xu Xiugu's husband."

"Similarly, during the oil spill incident, Qi Ran signed up for a guzheng competition for her daughter Zhao Liangliang." Zong Ming said deeply, "The venue happened to be in Linshi.

A terrible fact is surfacing, Zong Ming said: "Xu Xiugu's husband is very romantic, and he has divorced Xu Xiugu several times in the past five years, and the mistresses involved are different each time, including the heroine in the above two cases I think what Xu Xiugu learned in 'Treasure Loves Women' is not as useful as she said, but Qi Ran, a close friend in the boudoir, solved many problems for her."

Captain Liu browsed through the messages he sent, and fell into silence.As a rookie, Li Weisi felt that his three views had been greatly impacted. If what Zong Ming said was true, then this was a typical mutual aid crime. "Cherish Loving Women" mutual aid will connect the two of them, so they may never find out the truth.

"That's why I said that Xu Xiugu was lying." Zong Ming said, "Qi Ran helped her so much, she couldn't just help her infuse the victim for a few days. I think the victim was sent to the basement by Xu Xiugu , She knows all of Qi Ran's plans."

"But it still can't explain the details of their disappearance." Captain Liu said, "How did they leave the laboratory and home? How did Xu Xiugu send them to the basement without a sound? We saw them when they disappeared. Monitoring, checking their communication records, all evidence shows that no one coerced or coerced them. How did Qi Ran do this?"

Zong Ming was silent for a while, and said, "I have evidence to prove that Qi Ran is a super brain."

Captain Liu was stunned.Zong Ming explained: "My assistant and I have been tracking down a super brain. We suspected Zhao Yigang and Jiao Lei at first, but we didn't confirm it was Qi Ran until the day before yesterday. I'm sorry that I didn't explain it to you immediately. On the one hand, it was because Our evidence is not sufficient, on the other hand, the presence or absence of a super brain does not have a big impact on your detection process."

Captain Liu frowned, with a hint of displeasure in his expression: "You didn't come here to collect information and write a paper from the beginning, did you?"

"I am indeed writing a thesis." Zong Ming said sincerely, "Captain Liu, this is not the first time we have dealt with each other. You know the rules of the Criminal Investigation Bureau and I do. Everyone follows the rules."

Captain Liu thought about it for a while, and then he was relieved. Although Zong Ming had reservations about him, it was a system regulation, and he was not ambiguous at all in the process of handling the case. He said everything he had to say and did everything he needed to do. Neither overstepping authority nor hiding secrets.

"Zong Chu's affairs are open, and I understand." Captain Liu said, "If you can confirm that Qi Ran is a super brain, then some details can make sense."

Zong Ming said: "Yes, I think Qi Ran hinted in advance to let them go to a certain place at the scheduled time according to a fixed route, and then Xu Xiugu who was waiting there drove them away and sent them quietly to the basement , regular injections of drugs to keep them alive."

"Then Qi Ran is too powerful." Captain Liu said in shock, "Not only can she make the victims do the scheduled things at the scheduled time, but she can also make them fall into a coma after a period of time - Xu Xiugu said she didn't use it for them Anesthetics. Zong Chu, have you encountered such a powerful super brain before?"

Zong Ming pondered for a moment, and said: "I handled a similar case in Las Vegas three years ago, and the suspect was a hypnotist, whose abilities were somewhat similar to Qi Ran's, but far less good than hers. Control. I feel that the super brains we have encountered in recent years have become more and more powerful, and there is a tendency to upgrade, so we must dig out the hand behind them as soon as possible.”

Captain Liu nodded and asked, "Then what should we do now? Will Qi Ran be caught or not? The selection of young scientists will be announced tomorrow, and there will be an awards ceremony at [-] pm. I heard that Zhao Yigang is a big hit, and internal news has already spread. .”

"Wait a little longer." Zong Ming sent Hu Charlie's photos and information to Captain Liu, "Pay attention to this man, I suspect he is a sweeper. He also appeared when Wang Hao died last time. I saw him the night before yesterday. My assistant met him downstairs in a B&B hotel."

"Hu Charlie...that's a weird name." Captain Liu said, "Then let's continue to monitor Qi Ran to see if this person will appear around her."

"This person is very important, even more important than Qi Ran." Zong Ming said to him solemnly, "Behind him is an organization called the Ninth Fund. I suspect that all the super brains in China have something to do with them over the years. This time The hand behind the scenes must be pulled out."

"Don't worry." Captain Liu said, "I'll ask someone to monitor him. As long as he is in Xiyan City, his every move will not escape our eyes."

"Don't scare the snake away." Zong Ming said, "At present, we have no evidence to prove that he is a sweeper. We must catch him when he approaches Qi Ran and tries to make a move, otherwise all previous efforts may be wasted."

"I will pay attention." Captain Liu said, "I have to continue the interrogation with Xu Xiugu. Let someone investigate her husband's nonsense first. If the pregnant woman who fell into the river is related to her, it is a case of intentional homicide." The case is closed, and I am afraid that the case will be reopened."

"Thank you for your hard work." Zong Ming said, "I will not follow up on this case and leave it to you."

"it is good."

After the short meeting, it was already two o'clock in the afternoon, and the cafeteria had reserved meals for them, but Levi's stomach felt nauseous when he thought about the colorless ingredients.Zong Ming obviously did the same. Standing on the steps, he stretched his waist and said, "Let's go, I'll take you out for a good meal. I'm too tired these two days. I'll reward you."

"Cold noodles?"

"...If you really want to eat, that's fine. I'll risk my life to accompany the gentleman."

Levi's snorted, and was just about to suggest to eat a piece of meat or something, when the phone rang suddenly. It was Jiao Lei, who said that he had already rented a house outside, and asked when he could pick up the parrot.

After being raised for such a long time, and with the nicknames, Levi's was a bit reluctant to part with Montgomery, but after all, Jiao Yueran left it to Jiao Lei. Now Jiao Yueran is still in the hospital, and he doesn't know if he will wake up. He can't take people away. Love.

So he told Zong Ming about this: "Let's go home, see Patton and Rommel, and bring Montgomery to Jiao Lei by the way."

Zong Ming said: "Okay, other people's children will be sent away sooner or later." Seeing that Levi's was a little lost, he comforted him, "If you like parrots, we will go to the flower and bird market to pick one for you later."

"Forget it, if you pick another M, Rommel will really turn into an S." Levi got into the car with Zong Ming, and sighed, "It's already enough to dominate, and it can't go on the road of perverted meow. Go down."

The two flew home all the way, and when they entered the door, they found Patton and Rommel squatting under the laurel tree in the yard, staring at a furry thing on the ground.

Levi's took a closer look and found that it was a comatose hare.

Against the sky!The cat will feed the dog!

Rommel looked at Levi with a look of resentment, and with his front paws, he swiped the hare towards Patton's feet, and called to him, "Meow!"

This is the meaning of extreme dissatisfaction, and Levi's is a little confused why it has such a big opinion on itself.It was Zong Ming who understood his perverted cat better, and explained to him: "The Marshal is upset, you didn't come back yesterday to feed Barton, and there wasn't enough dog food left, and his best friend was starving."

"..." Levi choked speechlessly.Rommel walked to his feet and made a few gestures of burying shit, which meant that he had committed a heinous crime and should be buried alive.

"You're going to rebel!" Levi couldn't laugh or cry, picked it up and rubbed it twice, "It's useless to feed you so many canned cats, and you dare to bury me alive!"

Rommel let out a hoarse scream and stretched out his paws to Zong Ming for help.Zong Ming shrugged helplessly: "Be nice to your stepfather, he is ahead of you in our family's food chain."

Rommel struggled to get off the ground, scratched Levi's several times through his pants, ran to Patton, and pushed the hare into the kennel under the laurel tree.

"It's not easy for Marshal." Zong Ming sighed, "He has a sense of responsibility too much. You should be more tolerant of him in the future. It's hard to find cats that can feed dogs these days."

"..." Levi didn't feel that he was ahead of Rommel in the food chain at all. Zong Ming must have been talking ironically just now, right?

And why is he a stepfather?

In view of the 40 yuan bowl of cold noodles, Zong Ming took the initiative to undertake the task of cooking, and asked Levi's to go upstairs to take Montgomery down for a walk, and say goodbye to his Shaking S friend by the way.

After Montgomery rubbed Monascus for a while, the bird pox was almost healed, and a thin layer of fluff appeared on his bald skin.Levi put it on the dining table, kneaded some bread crumbs and fed it.

However, Montgomery obviously liked Rommel more. When he saw His Excellency Marshal come in, he immediately flew over, screaming passionately.

Rommel's sense of smell was extremely sensitive, and when he smelled the monascus on it, he immediately vomited and ran away like avoiding the plague.Montgomery didn't know what to do, and started running wildly with its ass.

In the past, Rommel was chasing Montgomery, and now it is Montgomery chasing Rommel. Although the direction is reversed, the movement is equally lively. Levi sat on the high chair and watched them chase and play. His nerves, which had been tense all day and night, gradually relaxed, He yawned and lay down on the dining table.

Two legs could not run with four legs, and in the end Montgomery still failed to catch up with Rommel. He complained twice and ran to find a vegetable basket on the kitchen counter, dunked himself in it, and squatted in it. self-reflection.

Zong Ming shook his head amusedly, and scooped out the boiled tomato sorrel fish from the pot, only to find Levi's asleep on the dining table, snoring lightly.

After hesitating between waking him up and letting him sleep, Zong Ming took off his apron, gently picked him up horizontally, and walked across the dining room to the sofa in the living room.

Forget it, let him sleep, he's too tired... Zong Ming covered him with a blanket, and suddenly felt a little sleepy, so he lay down on the sofa next to him and fell asleep head to head with him.

Rommel ran out from nowhere, looked blankly at the two sleeping masters, and ran into the kitchen to eat tomato dragon fish.

Bah, a little sour!
