Chapter 21 Original Sin

Sometimes this world is just such a coincidence, a living person is still jumping and dancing one second, and may become a corpse the next second, and the person who is still standing around will leave without knowing when.

After Han Nuoshang and the forensic team finished collecting the evidence, they asked Bai Yinchen to put the body back into the body bag and bring it back to the bureau to arrange tasks.

After the members of the criminal investigation team walked around the scene of the murder, they found nothing else, and they were about to go back to the bureau in a mighty way.

It's always fun to get together, the only bad thing is they're halfway through their vacation and have to come back to work overtime!

Gu Ci walked out of the woods with everyone, watching the people from the city bureau leave in batches, but he never approached his car from the beginning to the end, and lowered his head in deep thought.

Han Nuoshang walked up to him, and seeing that he had no intention of leaving, he walked towards him and asked, "What are you thinking? Why don't you leave?"

"I remembered that I still have something to do later, you go first, I will go back to help after finishing my own business." Gu Ci raised his head and glanced at Han Nuoshang.

The latter touched his nose, not knowing what he was thinking, and turned around to arrange other tasks, as if he didn't want to delve into what he was going to do.

Gu Ci subconsciously touched his neckline, but it was empty and there was nothing there.

He couldn't help frowning, turned back to the woods, squatted down and groped silently near the place where he suddenly turned back not long ago.

The sun has set, and the sky is getting hazy, and the moon will come out later!

Gu Ci just found out that the ring he was wearing around his neck was missing. After thinking about it, he should have lost it in the woods. It is very likely that it was at the place where he suddenly turned his head. After all, his sixth sense has always been very accurate, and he came out of Huang Zhe's house. At that time, the ring was still around his neck.

Gu Ci searched the ground inch by inch, and searched all the places he could find, but he found nothing. For the first time, he wondered if his memory was wrong, but if he wasn't here, where would he be?

This is the only thought he can leave behind, if this is gone, what is left of him in the end!

After Han Nuoshang arranged the matter in hand, everyone in the criminal investigation team went back to the bureau, and the other teams who came to help also left in a hurry. Gu Ci's eye-catching white Bentley was still stubborn The man stopped not far away, but his master disappeared.

He glanced around, as if there was nothing wrong with him, he lowered his head and thought for a while, then turned and walked into the woods.

When Han Nuoshang entered the woods, he saw such a scene - the sky was dark, Gu Ci was holding the phone and turning on the light, squatting on the ground and looking around for the weeds and debris.

"What are you looking for?" Han Nuoshang asked.

Gu Ci suddenly turned his head, he didn't notice Han Nuoshang's arrival, so he was startled by his sudden sound, and it took him a while to recover.

"It's nothing, just some personal belongings." Gu Ci turned around and continued to search, and replied casually.

"Is it very important?" Looking at the situation, Han Nuoshang must have been looking here for a long time.

"It's very important to me!" Gu Ci twitched the corner of his mouth at him, showing a smile that didn't know if it was real or not.

"Let me help you find it!" Han Nuoshang walked to him, squatted down and looked at him, "tell me what it is here."

Gu Ci looked at him in surprise, and after a while, he turned his head away and said, "You don't have to do this, I can do it myself."

"We are both partners and friends. We can always discuss anything. Whether it is business or private, you can ask me for help."

"..." Gu Ci stared at him blankly for a while, seeing that he had made up his mind to come here, he couldn't help it. "It's a ring, with a chain on it, very delicate."

The two searched the place in a blanket manner, but they still couldn't find anything. They spent more than an hour in the woods like that, but they still found nothing.

"Have you found it?" Gu Ci looked at Han Nuoshang with hope.

Gu Ci's eyes made him feel a strong sense of guilt, but he couldn't find anything, and touched his nose embarrassingly, "I'm sorry."

Gu Ci could tell the result from his expression, but he still took chances, as long as there was hope, but hope was always so slim.

The sky had completely darkened, and Han Nuoshang accompanied him to search here for several hours. Although he couldn't find it, Gu Ci still had to thank him.

"You don't need to apologize, I should tell you thank you!" Gu Ci stood up from the ground and said to him, "Let's go! Go back!"

Han Nuoshang looked at him in surprise, "Just give up like that, don't you want to look for it?"

"I've been searching for so long. If I could find it, I would have found it long ago!" Gu Ci sighed, and turned around to go out of the forest. I probably can’t find it anymore, so I might as well go back and help out instead of wasting my life here!”

"You just gave up like this, are you willing?" Han Nuoshang looked at Gu Ci's back, but he didn't stand up from the ground. "Gu Ci, tell me, are you really willing to give up like this?"

Gu Ci froze in place, willing?How could he be reconciled, but fate must be compromised, and he is only one of thousands of people, what ability does he have to resist!

"Gu Ci, don't give up easily." Han Nuoshang's voice softened, but his tone was unquestionable.

"If we can't find it, then we are just wasting our energy here."

"But what if we find it?" Han Nuoshang said, "Give me another hour, and whether I can find it or not after one hour, I won't say anything."

Seeing that he persisted, Gu Ci felt an inexplicable feeling in his heart, but he didn't say anything more, and started to search again, and searched for the places he had already searched just now, maybe he missed something!

Half an hour later, Han Nuoshang half squatted not far from Gu Ci, and opened a piece of grass, which contained a small and delicate chain, which should be Gu Ci's, and a surge of joy welled up in his heart. Carefully parting the grass, the whereabouts of the chain and the ring were exposed to him, and he carefully put it in his palm.

"Gu Ci!"

Gu Ci looked up, Han Nuoshang's tall figure was standing beside him, Gu Ci looked at him with some doubts.

Han Nuoshang stretched out his fist and opened it in front of his face, and the ring and chain appeared in his palm.

Gu Ci woke up startled, and quickly took the ring, the joy of finding it back filled his heart, Han Nuoshang could tell that he was really happy this time.

The two walked back to the car. Han Nuoshang took out a bottle of mineral water from his car and gave it to Gu Ci. After cleaning up the filth on his hands, Gu Ci saw that his fingers were bleeding. Noticed, so I didn't feel it, but now it's starting to ache.

Han Nuoshang, who Gu Ci saw, naturally also noticed it. He took out alcohol and bandages from the car, pulled Gu Ci's hand in front of his face, and treated his wound seriously.

Seeing his serious expression, Gu Ci suddenly remembered that his mother had a similar expression when he was very young.

At that time, my father lost his ring. I couldn't find it, so I wanted to give it up. I wanted to buy a new pair, but my mother refused.

"This is our wedding ring. The meaning is very important. It feels different to buy it again. Let's look for it again, maybe we can find it!"

So the whole family put down what they were doing, and finally Gu Ci's mother found it in the grass, but his father scratched his hand while digging through the grass, and his mother bandaged his father's wound very distressedly, with a serious expression on his face.

Mom was very happy at that time. After bandaging Dad's wound, she sat on the grass and raised her head. She lifted up the ring and looked at the two words engraved on the ring—Zi Mo, which was her mother's name.

When Dad saw his mother laughing, he also laughed. At that time, Gu Ci never understood why his father laughed along with him, but now he probably understands his father's mood.

Because the person he cares about is happy, so he is also very happy.

Gu Ci raised the ring to his eyes, just like what his mother did at that time, the word Zi Mo clearly came into his eyes.

"Heh..." Gu Ci laughed, luckily he didn't lose it, luckily you helped me find it back.

It was the first time Han Nuoshang saw his smile like this, without a trace of disguise, with a nostalgic smile, he asked with some doubts, "Is this ring very important to you?"

Gu Ci gradually put away his smile and put away the ring, "Mmm! It's very important."

Han Nuoshang nodded, and didn't ask any more questions. He knew that Gu Ci would not say anything, so he didn't intend to waste his efforts.

"Go back, the entire criminal investigation team is short of us."

Gu Ci nodded.

On the way back, Gu Ci was driving a car, and a fragmentary picture flashed in his mind.

"It's the first time I met you, you look so cute..." Who is that person, I feel very familiar, but I can't remember...

When the two returned to the City Bureau, Bai Yinchen had just finished the autopsy and shared the autopsy report with everyone.

"The components of the anesthetic were found in the deceased's body, and the physical signs of the wound on his body indicated that he died during the autopsy, and I suspect that he was still awake when he was dissected, and the murderer did not anesthetize him. Consciousness, he may watch his body being dissected, but he can't do anything. The corpse is severely damaged, especially the lower body, which is cut in a bad way. It is certain that the dissection and the destruction of the corpse are not the same Personally, their dominant hand is different, and the strength of the wound is also different." Bai Yinchen paused, and continued, "The deceased's first wound has no physical traces, and it can be concluded that the person who destroyed the deceased's body was killed by the deceased. He was right-handed, the carotid artery of the deceased was cut, the murderer may have taken away the blood of the deceased in that way."

Hearing Bai Yinchen's words, everyone couldn't help but feel a chill, being dissected and mutilated, this person offended someone's rhythm!

"I just checked Chen Yu's social relations. He has just been released from prison for less than a month, and he only has a few pig friends around him. His family severed ties with him because of what happened nine years ago, and the victim of the case nine years ago There are four people in total, Zhao Yue, Chen Sike, Zhang Yue and Zhang Chen. After Chen Yu's family severed ties with him, they moved out of the place where they originally lived. But for some reason, after Chen Yu was released from prison, he suddenly became very rich and fooled around everywhere. !" Lin Chenyi covered his computer, "Boss, I can only find so much personal information about Chen Yu!"

"Can the four victims still be contacted?"

"Except for Zhang Yue, no one else can do it?" Lin Chenyi helplessly spread his hands.

"No way, they are all missing?" Song Zhiyue was surprised, considering Lin Chenyi's ability, it shouldn't be so clueless to find someone.

"Zhao Yue went abroad. No one knows where he went. Chen Sike also went to other places a few years ago. Zhang Chen and Zhang Yue are two brothers. Zhang Yue is the elder brother. Zhang Chen couldn't bear it after what happened nine years ago. Such a blow caused him to commit suicide, so Zhang Yue is the only one left in Yuancheng." Lin Chenyi sighed, thinking that Chen Yu was really not a thing, and he really didn't understand why he wanted to help this kind of case to solve the case and complain about his grievances. .

Han Nuoshang naturally knew what Lin Chenyi was thinking, but no matter how annoying Chen Yu was personally, they still had to investigate, this was their responsibility.

"Where's Chen Yu's family? Can you still contact them?" Gu Ci asked.

"It can be done, but it will take a while."

"You can also check the income of the deceased. I found that he went to some high-consumption places. He has just been released from prison. It is very suspicious where so much money can be spent." Ying Hongxue twirled her fingers. , looked at Lin Chenyi.

"Got it, I'll give it to you right away." Lin Chenyi perfectly received Ying Hongxue's eyes, turned on the computer and started to work.

Everyone also began to rummage through the information sent by the forensic department just now, looking for missing clues.

"I found it. When Chen Yu was just released from prison, he received a sum of money from an unknown source, a total of 40 yuan. Then he also received a sum a few days ago. That time it was 50 yuan, but the account that sent him the money was an overseas account. , still anonymous, I can’t find his information.”

Han Nuoshang nodded, and took out a notebook, "If you have any ideas, please tell me first!"

"There is a problem with the person who sent money to Chen Yu. I suspect that there may be some unknown transactions between them, and they may have contacted in prison. Otherwise, how could they send him money immediately when he was released from prison. But he should not be the murderer, but it is not certain that he may know some clues, or the transaction between them brought Chen Yu's death." Ying Hongxue said.

"Zhang Yue is still very suspicious. After all, he and Zhang Chen are both victims, and Zhang Chen committed suicide. The accumulation of these pressures can easily distort people's hearts. No matter what kind of person he is, he has experienced these things. It is very likely to become the perpetrator after the blow!" Gu Ci said.

"I think Chen Yu's family may know something, Chen Yi, do you know the names of Chen Yu's family?" Chu Han asked.

"His sister's name is Chen Yuting. She is over 30 this year. Her mother died of a heart attack the year before last. Her father, Chen Kesong, is 70 years old. She should live with Chen Yuting now!" Lin Chen has just seen their family relationship, although he has not yet The address can be found, but other things can basically be found.

"Even if they don't know what Chen Yu is doing recently, but when they were young and Chen Yu hadn't broken up with his family, his sister might still remember something about Chen Yu." Chu Han paused " Also, why did Chen Yu commit a crime, but why did all his family members cut ties with him? Although it is not ruled out that his family is full of hatred, but I am more inclined to think that he did something that his family found intolerable, so that his family members all felt that it was not acceptable. I feel unforgivable towards him."

"We found a bit of linen fiber between Chen Yu's fingers, and we don't know its source for the time being. In addition, the murderer was very cautious and did not leave any fingerprints, DNA, or sex to identify him, but the one who destroyed the body People are not very cautious, he is venting, and the tool he used is an ax for cutting trees if he guessed correctly, but there is still nothing about his identity." Bai Yinchen glanced at Hua Xiaolu and signaled She went on.

"The tools used by the murderer are very rare. He dissected Chen Yu very carefully, so he should have some common medical knowledge. However, the dissecting tools are not commonly used medical or dissecting tools, and the possibility of making them by himself cannot be ruled out."

Han Nuoshang nodded, indicating that he understood.

"It's getting late, let's go back to rest tonight! You don't have to come back to report tomorrow morning. Chen Yi found out Chen Yuting's current address and sent it directly to Chu Han and Zhiyue. You two go ask her what enemies Chen Yu has. , What exactly happened nine years ago? Hongxue and Chen Yi will go to the prison tomorrow to find out who they have been in contact with during the nine years that Chen Yu served his sentence. Lao Bai continues to search for Chen Yu's body. Don't let it go, as for Gu Ci, come visit Zhang Yue with me tomorrow!"

Gu Ci had no objection and blinked at him.

"Let's go, let's go back together, I'll give you a ride!" Han Nuoshang hooked Gu Ci's shoulder and led him out.

"Team Han, I have a car." Gu Ci was helpless, but he didn't break free.

"It's okay, just stay in the bureau for now! We have to go out together tomorrow, it's inconvenient to have two cars."

"..." This is the theory, but he always felt that something was wrong.

"Have you noticed that the relationship between the boss and the deputy team is particularly good recently!" Lin Chenyi sat next to Ying Hongxue and said.

Ying Hongxue nodded, but didn't say anything!She originally studied psychology, and she could see much more than Lin Chenyi, but she didn't intend to interfere, it was their own business, let them handle it by themselves.

It wasn't until Gu Ci got into Han Nuoshang's car that he realized that something was wrong.

"I'll drive back by myself. Is there any conflict with going out to work with you tomorrow?" Gu Ci wanted to give him a blank look now, feeling like he was being tricked.

"Of course there is..." Han Nuoshang rubbed his nose in embarrassment.

"Then, Team Han, what is the conflict?"

"..." This?Han Nuoshang naturally didn't know, he was just playing a prank out of the blue.
