Chi Xiaofei was targeted because he went to the provincial department to investigate the personnel change files, and he himself was attacked for the same reason.

The personnel files of the provincial department include the records of the changes of personnel above the captain level of the detachments of the municipal public security bureaus in the province, and the file office of the municipal public security bureau cannot keep them due to insufficient authority.

Chi Xiaofei said the word "autumn" to him before he died.

With the above information, Nie Qing can already deduce that the charred corpse case that Chi Xiaofei has been investigating during his lifetime may have an inseparable relationship with Qiu Luxin, the captain of the anti-drug detachment of the Pingcheng Public Security Bureau.

And what Chi Xiaofei was trying to find out during that time was the real identity of Jiao Shi.Su Ji also said during the autopsy that the deceased was probably a policeman before his death.

All of this points to a terrifying conjecture that makes one's back shiver——

The real identity of the scorched corpse must be closely related to Qiu Luxin, and Qiu Luxin is the real culprit of this vicious murder of corpses and traces!

If this is the case, I am afraid that the national police will be shocked.

Nie Qing knew that this matter was of great importance. Since he was blocked everywhere in Province Y, he simply left there first, and went directly to Qiuluxin's original base camp, City A, to check his background.

What Yuan Liang was asked to help find before was all the personal information and related social relations that Qiu Luxin could find.

As a senior cadre dispatched by the Public Security Bureau of City A to the Public Security Bureau of Pingcheng City, Qiu Luxin's personnel files have a very high level of confidentiality. Even Yuan Liang took a lot of effort to hack them. Qing didn't live in his heart to remind himself to be careful.

According to the information Yuan Liang gave him, Qiu Luxin is still unmarried. His father passed away when he was in high school, and his mother is still alive. Now he lives in a private nursing home in City A.

Nie Qing had the specific address of this nursing home, but he didn't want to go to such an early start, so he first contacted a senior whom he met at the Public Security University, and now works in the criminal investigation team of the Public Security Bureau of City A. Meet at a coffee shop not far from the Public Security Bureau.

Nie Qing arrived first and found an inconspicuous seat in the corner.

After a while, he saw from the floor-to-ceiling windows that the senior was striding towards the door, and after entering the door, he walked towards the seat where he was sitting without thinking.

"As expected, you are sitting here, and it would be the same if I were replaced." The familiar visitor unceremoniously pulled away the chair opposite Nie Qing and sat down, beckoning to the little girl in a coffee shop next to him, "Same as usual." regulars.

The name of the visitor was Meng Zheng, and he was now the captain of the Criminal Investigation Brigade of the Public Security Bureau of City A.When Nie Qing was a sophomore, the department invited Meng Zhenglai to give them a series of lectures on criminal investigation work, which lasted for a semester. Because Nie Qing admired his excellent professional skills, he often went to ask for advice, so the two got mixed up. Once we got to know each other well, we got along like buddies later on.It was mentioned earlier that Nie Qing had assisted the local police in solving several cases during his school days, all with Meng Zheng.Until Nie Qing graduated and chose to return to Pingcheng, he had fewer opportunities to meet Meng Zheng, but the contact between the two has never been broken. Nie Qing often consulted Meng Zheng about solving crimes.

At this moment, Nie Qing saw that he was still wearing a short-sleeved T-shirt to show off in the street in this big winter in the north, and couldn't help but sigh with emotion: "Brother Zheng is still in good health as before."

"It's close, and there's heating!" Meng Zheng said with a grin. His complexion is rather dark. It can be seen that he is often exposed to the wind and sun outside. His skin is rough, but he looks very energetic, especially a pair of The eyes are extraordinarily bright and appear piercing. "How are you? Back in the south of the motherland, do you miss our heating?"

"Hehe, it's okay." Nie Qing also smiled.

At this moment, the little girl came over with two cups of iced coffee, handed one to him, put the other in front of Meng Zheng, and said with a lovely smile, "Drink slowly, drinking ice too quickly is not good."

"I know, I know." Meng Zheng waved his hand, and shrugged when she walked away, "I'm so talkative at such a young age."

"I know you very well." Nie Qing lowered his head and took a sip of his own coffee. A cool feeling hit his heart, and he suddenly felt a little clearer.

"Let's talk about your business." Meng Zheng suddenly turned serious, staring at Nie Qing, "You said it's inconvenient to talk on the phone, and now you're so preoccupied, it doesn't seem like a trivial matter?"

"En." Nie Qing knew that in front of Meng Zheng, he was not like a primary school student but also a junior high school student. The circumstances of the case—including Chi Xiaofei's death and his attack, as well as his guesses about the truth of the incident—are explained to Meng Zheng in detail.

"In this case, there are two most important points. The first is the relationship between the deceased with the scorched corpse and Qiu Luxin, and the second is Qiu Luxin's motivation for doing this." Meng Zheng thought for two seconds and said after listening.

This coincided with Nie Qing's thoughts.But Meng Zheng managed to organize his thinking so clearly after just listening to it once, and Nie Qing couldn't help admiring him even more.

"You said you have the address of the nursing home where Qiu Lu's new mother is?" Meng Zheng asked again.

"Uh... yes." Nie Qing hesitated for a moment before replying.

Meng Zheng smiled slyly: "Don't be nervous, I won't ask you how you got here. In our business, both black and white hands have to be tough, you kid can do it." After finishing speaking, he paused, "I was thinking about how to give you Find a justifiable reason to go in and see people. If you use your real identity to be exposed immediately, if you want to pretend to be someone else, I believe that Captain Qiu will not be able to take precautions. It is estimated that the photo of you has already been taken in front of his mother. It was sent to his phone."

This is why Nie Qing didn't rush to the nursing home, and he was also worried about this.

"How about this, you send me the name of the nursing home, and I will arrange it." Meng Zheng glanced at the time, and it was less than eight o'clock in the morning, "Don't go to other places, I will try to get it done before nine o'clock."

"Okay." Nie Qing had great confidence in Meng Zheng's ability to handle affairs.

"As for the identity of the deceased, it's not convenient for you to check, so leave it to me." Meng Zheng seemed to have a well-thought-out plan, and seemed to have a feasible plan, "Let's go to the nursing home in the morning and do it when we come back in the afternoon. I dare not guarantee that if it goes well, it will be very fast, and if it doesn't go well, there may be a few more detours."

Nie Qing nodded, "No problem, just listen to Brother Zheng."

"Then I'll go back to the team and make arrangements, and you'll wait for me here. But—" Meng Zheng's eyes fell on the crutch Nie Qing put aside, "How is your injury? You can walk without it for a short time Is it? It may not be convenient to take this to a nursing home."

"Okay, I just need to carry it for a long time, and it won't affect me for a while." Nie Qing said.

"That's good, wait for my news." Meng Zheng simply walked away after finishing speaking, without saying a word.

But the little girl saw him go and shouted from behind: "I'll keep the account for you!"

Meng Zheng turned his head and waved his hands as a tacit consent.

The little girl walked over to Nie Qing with a smile and said, "Just tell me what else you want to eat and drink, and it will be charged to his account."

"How can this be done, I'll pay the bill—" Nie Qing had already taken out her wallet, but the little girl waved her hands repeatedly to stop her and said, "You don't have to be polite to him, he's never been polite to him, write it down for him!" After finishing speaking He pursed his lips and turned away with a smile.

At this time, Nie Qing also saw some clues. Since the girls said so, he couldn't insist on it anymore, so he had to silently accept the "graciousness" of his senior.

Now it's time for office workers in City A to dispatch, and the number of people on the street gradually increased, and there was an endless stream of people who came to buy coffee, and the surrounding became noisy. Nie Qing was a little glad that her seat would not be taken by others. Crowded enough, he can silently observe everyone and guess their identities and occupations, which is also an interesting training for criminal police.

At this moment, he saw two people coming in from the door. A young boy was supporting an older man. The man was wearing sunglasses and had a cane in his hand. Always be careful to avoid the people around you.Must be a blind man.

The boy helped the man to sit on a sofa by the window, whispered something in his ear, then turned around and went to the counter to line up.

The man sat there quietly, without moving his head, and clasped his hands on the crutch in front of him. He didn't use much force, but it could be seen that he was very dependent on the crutch, as if it was a sustenance for his sense of security.

The tingling seemed to start from one point in the heart, and quickly spread to the entire lungs.

Nie Qing scratched her chest subconsciously, trying to ease the feeling.At this moment, all he thought about was the rest of his life.

When no one is around, is Yu Sheng the same as this man, keeping vigilance at all times and using the stick as his only reliance?

Perhaps his anxiety was stronger than that of ordinary blind people.

Thinking of this, Nie Qing picked up his mobile phone and dialed Yu Sheng's number.

"Ah Qing?" Yu Sheng answered quickly.

"What's wrong with your voice?" Nie Qing couldn't help frowning when he heard his hoarse voice, and could tell that it wasn't the lazy voice when he just woke up, but was really hoarse.

"It's okay, it's probably because I didn't sleep all night." Yu Sheng said in a low voice, looking more and more out of breath.

Nie Qing became anxious when she heard it, but when she thought that she shouldn't get angry with him, she suppressed the volume she was about to raise just now: "Why didn't you sleep all night? Are your injuries healed?"

"It's almost better." Yu Sheng sighed softly on the other end, "How about you? Are you feeling better?"

"Well, it's much better. Do you have anything else to do now? If not, go to sleep." Nie Qing persuaded.

"Hmm..." Yu Sheng hesitated, and waited for two seconds before asking, "Are you busy today? Can we meet?"

"I'm not in Pingcheng. I came to City A last night. I don't think I'll be able to go back today." Nie Qing listened carefully to the movement over there, and asked again: "What's the matter? Are you in a hurry?"

"Oh, there's no rush...it's okay, just ask casually, it's fine if you're not here." Yu Sheng's voice became even lower.

Nie Qing was silent for a while, but soon took a deep breath and said in a deep voice: "I will finish the matter here as soon as possible, and wait for me to go back to find you. Take care of yourself and make sure you rest."

"I see, and so do you."

Putting down the phone, Nie Qing picked up the rest of the coffee and downed it all in one go.

Gotta go back soon, he thought.
