riddle

Gu Ci's singing voice is very pure and ethereal, as if it was the voice of an angel left in this world, it can easily make people addicted.

It's a pity that although the singing is sweet, Han Nuoshang doesn't have so much time to appreciate it!

Lin Chenyi made a phone call, and both of them were forced to break away from all kinds of emotions and rush to the scene.

"It's so late to commit crimes, those murderers have nothing to do, right?"

On the way out of the cemetery, Han Nuoshang couldn't help complaining.

Gu Ci hugged the guitar and didn't look at him: "Team Han, do you still hope that the murderer can observe the commuting time?"

Han Nuoshang turned to the beginning, very unhappy, originally wanted to listen to the song again.

Han Nuoshang's car has already been brought back, now Gu Ci can drive according to his own wishes, without worrying that Han Nuoshang will steal the car from him.

When the two arrived at the scene of the crime, Yuan City was already brightly lit, and it was almost midnight.

The scene of the crime was in a high-end residential area, and Ying Hongxue was holding a notebook and standing at the entrance of the community, waiting for the arrival of the two.

After Han Nuoshang and the two parked the car, they walked towards her.

Ying Hongxue: "Three people died, they belonged to a family, and the person who reported the crime was their neighbor. The scene was a bit horrifying."

Gu Ci listened and didn't respond, but a sense of uneasiness gradually rose in his heart.

The family of the deceased lived on the ninth floor, which was surrounded by the police.

When Ying Hongxue and the others came out of the elevator, Bai Yinchen and the others were standing at the door smoking, and even Hua Xiaolu was with them.

Everyone in the criminal investigation team has received professional training, and even Lin Chenyi, who is a civilian, has a good psychological quality.

It is possible to make this group of people stand at the door and smoke together, but I don't know what the situation is like inside.

The neighbor of the deceased was already so frightened that her legs and feet were weak, Song Zhiyue comforted her at the side, she had hoped to get some news from the informant, but now the informant can finish a complete sentence.

Han Nuoshang walked over and took the gloves from Bai Yin: "What's going on inside?"

Bai Yinchen glanced at him, and said concisely: "Desperate!"

Han Nuoshang raised his eyebrows, walked to the door, took a deep breath, pushed the door open and entered.

Gu Ci didn't go in, but stood outside and looked in through the door that Han Nuoshang pushed open. He, who was still in a calm state, felt a "thump" in his heart, and he almost fell into the abyss.

He seemed to see the minions stretching towards him from the depths of the darkness, clamoring to pull him down, his heart trembled violently.

He seemed to have fallen into the ice cellar all of a sudden, his hands and feet were cold in an instant, as if someone had hit him on the head with a stick, his eyes turned black, and he couldn't calm down no matter what.

Gu Ci struggled to hold on to the door frame, and he was about to lose his footing. His usual calmness and orderliness disappeared without a trace in this instant.

The thought of "he's back" suddenly came to his mind, he couldn't help thinking about it, his hands and feet couldn't help trembling, uncontrollable, the scenes that he had once deceived himself and had forgotten, all of a sudden smashed towards him.

There was almost no place to step down in the room, the whole floor was covered with blood, as if stepping into a sea of ​​blood, the blood spread from the sofa.

Han Nuoshang looked up and could only see one of the dead, the other two were facing away from them, unable to see the situation clearly.

The dead person sitting on the sofa was still a little girl, her hands were twisted in a special posture, and there were still two bloody holes left in her eye sockets.

Before Han Nuoshang had time to observe carefully, there was a sudden commotion outside the door.

"Deputy team, what's wrong with you?"

"Deputy team, where are you going?"

"Deputy team?"

Han Nuoshang hurriedly withdrew from the inside, looked at the few people beside him, seeing that Gu Ci was no longer here, his tone couldn't help being a little hasty.

"what happened?"

Ying Hongxue frowned: "Just now I saw the deputy team leader leaning against the door with a pale face. I wanted to ask him what's wrong, but he suddenly pushed me away and ran out in a stumbling manner."

Everyone stretched out their fingers, and the elevator showed that they had descended to the fourth floor. It was obviously unwise to take the elevator, so Han Nuoshang ran directly down the stairs on one side.

"You collect the evidence first, deal with the scene, and wait for me to talk about other things when I come back."

Everyone looked at Han Nuoshang who had run away without a trace, and they all looked at each other in blank dismay—one ran away just now, and now another one ran away, and the two captains are gone, what is this?

When Han Nuoshang rushed downstairs out of breath, he only saw his back passing by outside the door.

Reminiscent of what Gu Ci said to him today and the scene of the crime scene, Han Nuoshang could vaguely guess the reason for Gu Ci's sudden escape.

But Gu Ci is not the kind of person who would run away casually, unless he... lost control!

His heart sank again, but he couldn't help thinking about the current situation, Gu Ci ran to the street in his current state, something would definitely happen.

However, Gu Ci was not a person with poor physical fitness, coupled with his sudden explosive power, no matter how Han Nuoshang chased him, there was still a gap of about 40 meters.

"Gu Ci, stop for me."

Han Nuoshang yelled at the person in front, and was dissatisfied with his physical strength for the first time.

The passers-by on the road were frightened by his roar and froze in place, all staring at the two of them with strange eyes.

However, Gu Ci ran out of the community as if he hadn't heard his words. There was a road outside the community... Han Nuoshang was terrified and hurried to speed up.

Fortunately, Gu Ci only ran towards the side of the pedestrian street, and did not run to the driveway.

Gu Ci himself didn't know where he wanted to go, he just wanted to escape there instinctively. When he was ten years old, all the pain hit him all at once, and he was almost out of breath.

This is a crossroads, he turned around in a daze, there was traffic on all sides, what should he do?Where is he going?

"Don't be afraid, I'm here!"

Han Nuoshang finally caught up and pulled him into his arms with such strength that he could not refuse.

He was almost at a loss for words, he ran down the stairs and chased Gu Ci for several kilometers, his strength was exhausted.

Han Nuoshang could feel Gu Ci's slight trembling, he didn't know how to comfort him, he could only hug him tightly like coaxing a child, and patted his back lightly.

"It's okay, don't be afraid! No one can hurt you, don't be afraid."

Surprisingly, Gu Ci was really calmed down by him, and his rationality gradually returned, and he finally remembered his identity and what he was doing.

Feeling that the person in his arms gradually calmed down, Han Nuoshang let go of his hands and let Gu Ci get out of his arms.

Gu Ci turned his head gently, unwilling to look at him.

Han Nuoshang raised his eyebrows, and turned his face to him. He originally wanted to tease him, but after running for him for so long, his legs almost broke, and he didn't even give him a look!But when he saw Gu Ci's flushed eyes and his face as pale as white paper, he couldn't say anything.

Gu Ci glanced at him, pushed him away, calmed down his emotions, and found that the two of them were in the middle of the intersection at this time, and the pedestrians on the road were looking at them with strange eyes.

"Sorry, I... lost control."

Han Nuoshang didn't speak, he looked around, and directly led him into the restaurant beside him. Gu Ci stayed at the cemetery all day today, so he probably didn't eat anything.

He didn't say anything, but after ordering food for the two of them, he sent a message to his team members on his mobile phone, asking about the situation of the case.

During this period, Gu Ci looked at him several times, hoping that he could say something, but to his disappointment, Han Nuoshang didn't seem to be ready to talk to him, and seemed a little angry.

Inexplicably, Gu Ci couldn't understand his belated anger, let alone why he was angry.

Gu Ci: "What's wrong with you?"

"What do you say?"

Han Nuoshang's face was displeased, Gu Ci could see his displeasure, but he didn't know where he had offended him?Is it because I caused him to run such a long way?

Seeing that he really didn't know what was wrong with him, Han Nuoshang shook his head resignedly, "Do you know how dangerous you were like just now? You just ran on the street recklessly, and even ran into the driveway..."

Gu Ci was taken aback for a moment, he thought about countless reasons why Han Nuoshang was angry, but he never thought that it was because he might be in danger.

Gu Ci: "I didn't run into the driveway."

Just almost ran up it!

Han Nuoshang: "Dare you say that when you were standing at that intersection just now, you didn't expect to run to the side lane?"

Gu Ci stopped talking, he had indeed thought about it, but before he could take action, Han Nuoshang caught up.

"I thought I could face it calmly, thought...but when he really appeared in front of me, I realized that I really couldn't face it calmly!" Gu Ci poked the paper in front of him. Qingcai "I'm much more cowardly than I imagined, and I'm afraid of him."

"It's not cowardice." Han Nuoshang frowned, and put a chopstick of vegetables into his bowl, "But Gu Ci, you have to know that the past is over, you can't be trapped by the past, you have to come out."

"Come out?" Gu Ci smiled wryly, "But he doesn't want me to come out."

Han Nuoshang: "What?"

Gu Ci: "Don't you understand? Why didn't he come to me directly? Why did he commit another crime?"

Han Nuoshang looked at him: "What exactly do you want to say?"

Gu Ci: "Because he didn't want me to have a good time, he wanted to drag me into the abyss, what could bring more impact to the victim than a reenactment of the crime scene back then, isn't my loss of control tonight the worst Is it a good proof?"

Han Nuoshang: "No one can hurt you. Aren't you still sitting here now? Nothing will happen. Don't worry."

Gu Ci: "He won't let me go."

Han Nuoshang: "I won't let him get close to you."

Gu Ci was stunned for a moment, opened his mouth, and wanted to say something, but he didn't say it.

Han Nuoshang pushed him a bowl of soup, "Eat it quickly, I'll take you back after eating, don't worry about anything else, let's go to sleep first."

Gu Ci nodded. He really can't do anything in his current state, and if he persists, it will only have the opposite effect.

Seeing that he agreed, Han Nuoshang felt relieved.

After sending Gu Ci back to the apartment, he drove back to the police station again. He asked Gu Ci to go back to rest, but he couldn't rest yet. Bai Yinchen and the others were still working. As the captain, he naturally couldn't leave his team members behind. , and then go to rest.

Lin Chenyi glanced at Han Nuoshang, who was busy in the world, "Boss, you're back! Where's the deputy team? Why isn't he with you?"

Han Nuoshang: "He's not in good condition, I told him to go back and rest first."

Lin Chenyi nodded, and didn't say anything else, and buried his head in the computer again. There was a kind of meaning that the computer was my home, and it was up to us to solve the case.

Han Nuoshang: "What's the situation now?"

Chu Han handed over a stack of photos, which were photos of the crime scene taken by the forensics department. Han Nuoshang looked at them one by one, his eyebrows tightly knit together.

Back then, I didn't notice why the girl twisted her hands in such a strange shape—in fact, it was because the girl's hands were no longer hers.

Her left hand was sewn on by her mother's hand, her right hand was her father's, and the girl's hands were sewn on to her parents. Anyway, the hands and feet on the three corpses did not belong to her.

The eyes of the corpse were gouged out, the ears and nose were cut off, and all the facial features were destroyed...it was inhumane.

Song Zhiyue handed over another photo: "This is a group photo of their family."

The people in the photo have bright smiles, and one can imagine that they are a happy family, but this family turned out like this in the end.

These horrific corpses can't see any connection with this happy photo. If they don't know that they are not mistaken, there is no way to put the people in the photo and the corpse lying in the forensic room together. Together.

Gu Ci, he used to have such a happy family! If he hadn't discovered such a thing, what would he be like now?

He must be more sunny and cheerful than now, and he can trust others more! Han Nuoshang thought to himself.

"Who is this?" Han Nuoshang pointed to the little boy standing aside in the photo. No body or person was found at the scene of the crime.

Chu Han: "This boy is the eldest son of the family, but we can't find his trace now. We speculate that he was probably taken away by the murderer!"

The words Gu Ci said suddenly came to Han Nuoshang's mind:

"He was trying to drag me into the abyss."

"Why didn't you come to me directly, but committed the murder again?"

"What is more shocking to the victim than a reenactment of the crime scene?"

"He won't let me go."

And this missing boy...

What Gu Ci said was right, that person was indeed coming for him, he was the last one left in Gu Ci's family.

Han Nuoshang clenched his fist and punched the void, gritted his teeth and said:

"asshole!"

Chu Han looked at him inexplicably: "Captain, what's wrong with you?"

Han Nuoshang took a deep breath: "It's okay, you continue talking."

Lin Chenyi projected a video on the big screen: "The surveillance at the time of the incident showed that this person wearing a sun hat and a mask had appeared at the victim's house, and he also brought a relatively large suitcase when he left. It can fit a boy under the age of 12."

So it is very likely that the boy from the deceased's family was taken away in this way.

Ying Hongxue frowned, looking at the man in the surveillance: "Can we find out who this person is and where is he now?"

"No!" Lin Chenyi shook his head, "After he left the building, he could start to avoid the surveillance. He seemed to know the layout of those surveillance cameras, so that there was no surveillance camera that could take pictures of him, and his identity information could not be found. "

Han Nuoshang nodded, these lines

It was not enough for them to catch the prisoner.

Song Zhiyue: "He is so familiar with the surveillance around here, has he checked here or does he live near here?"

Ying Hongxue: "I personally prefer that he is more familiar with this area, but there may be special circumstances."

Lin Chenyi: "The family of the deceased is a model family in the community. The family of four has a very good relationship, and the two children are also very enthusiastic about helping others. They have never had any grudges with others."

This family is very kind people, but they did not have a good death.

Han Nuoshang patted his forehead: "Let's go here first, and we'll make a living in the office tonight."

Su, I'll talk about it tomorrow...by the way, let me know when Lao Bai's autopsy report comes out!"

"Got it, boss."

Han Nuoshang turned his head and looked out the window,

I don't know how Gu Ci is doing now.

Gu Ci, who didn't know that he was being missed, was sitting in the bathtub at this moment, holding the ring that was originally hanging around his neck, recalling bits and pieces of his childhood.

Drops of water dripped down his wet hair, slightly dimming his eyes.

The water vapor was turning into water mist and rising in the bathroom, and it was unknown whether it was water droplets or teardrops, which kept sliding down Gu Ci's face.

Only at this time, when no one will find out, will he expose his vulnerable side.

He squeezed the ring tightly in his hands, and covered his heart with his hands, longing for a little warmth from inside...

"Mom and Dad, what did I do wrong? Why did it become like this?"

No one can answer him such a question, and he doesn't need to answer it, but it is really tiring.

I really want to just sleep like this and forget about it, and I can see my parents and my loved ones when I fall asleep...but I can't.

The ring slipped from his hand and fell into the water, Gu Ci straightened up, picked up the ring, and hung it back around his neck.

He can't lose control anymore, it's enough to have these once, he hasn't done what he should do, there is no use in giving up on himself.

Gu Ci stepped out of the bathtub and put on his bathrobe. What happened all day today is somewhat out of his control, and he can't go on like this tomorrow!
