when you stare into the abyss

More than 50 kilometers away from Binnan, the abandoned factory that no one cares about is in a mess, hiding a basement that was used to store materials when it was prosperous.

The dark and humid space is filled with the strong smell of instant noodles and some other convenience foods.The former lively and tough boy from the Northeast, whose limbs were tied to an iron frame, has lost his human form.

In the past few days, in order to hang his life, the black hands behind the scenes gave him nutrient solution through veins every day.To prevent suicide, his mouth was blocked by a thick towel, and there were no unnecessary wounds on his body, only the bruises and fine pinholes that were clearly visible in the socket of his elbow.

The weak white light reflected down, on the iron frame, the boy's eye sockets were sunken, and his face looked a little scary.

"Aren't the police very powerful? Seven days, I'll give them seven days, all they know is to use drones to search aimlessly. Stupid!" The masked murderer held an electronic device in his hand, and a low male voice came out.

When Chu Tao heard this, he raised his eyelids with difficulty, and it was already difficult to close his fists.

"Human nature is always greedy. With 2000 yuan, you can buy a garbage truck to drive you out without asking the cause and effect. You are still desperately protecting those people."

The five days before the National Day are the golden period for tourism, and the demand for swill trucks and garbage trucks has surged several times compared with normal days. From 06:30 to [-]:[-] is the period before the evening business, when these two types of vehicles come and go most intensively.The murderer dragged Chu Tao out of the swill bucket that afternoon, put it in a sack, threw it into a garbage truck, and told the driver that there was something mysterious in the bag that needed to be sent out.Wanli Lane must pass through the exit, waiting for the closely guarded car to follow all the way, and only unload the sacks from the garbage truck when there is no one around.

In the next few days, the two gangsters stayed in the basement without leaving even half a step. There was no way to find out.

The sneer echoed, and the masked man glanced at the time displayed on the phone screen, nodded and bowed into the microphone: "Boss, it's early morning."

"Send him on his way."

Chu Tao felt that the god of death was approaching. Relying on his remaining willpower, he raised his head, his protruding eyes forced himself to be energetic, and stared at him like he used to catch prisoners on duty.As long as the police are breathing, they will never bow to the murderer.

A large dose of cold liquid penetrated into his chapped skin in an instant, the big boy on the iron frame opened his eyes wide, and his bound arms trembled uncontrollably.Physiological reaction, the protruding Adam's apple in the neck keeps sliding, only 1 minute, it starts to slow down, slow down...

"Boss, there is no movement, but the eyes are not closed, and the head is still firmly propped up." The masked man breathed out his breath, pushed his shoulders hard, and the sunny boy finally buried his head heavily.

----------------------------------------------------------

Six or seven police cars, survey vehicles, and ambulances roared on the narrow rural roads, and Wan Tong drove Nie Zhilan and Nie Zhiyan in his own car. Twenty minutes ago, at 20:3 in the morning, the duty room of the Municipal Bureau received an anonymous phone call, leaving only one sentence: "The gift has been sent to the abandoned factory at No. 77, Guoyang Village."

The duration of the call was short, the number was a black card without real-name registration, and the anonymous person could not be located. Ma Zhao, who was on duty, immediately called Nie Zhilan and summoned the personnel according to the deployment.

Search and rescue teams, ambulances, blasting teams, and other front-line elites assembled and headed for the destination.

Wan Tong stepped on the gas pedal hastily, his brows were furrowed with anger.

"Tongtong, everyone is in a hurry, but safety is the most important thing. The vanguard is already one step ahead of us." Sitting in the back row, Nie Zhilan pulled the handrail on the right and ran 90 yards on the country road in the dark, never daring to think about it.

Wan Tong turned a deaf ear to it.

Nie Zhiyan wore her seat belt in fear, without impatience, reminded her in a low voice: "Tongtong, slow down." After a pause of two seconds, she added, "Try to slow down."

Wan Tong stepped on the brake lightly, and the speed of the car dropped from 90 to 80 and finally to 60 yards. She didn't speak, and held the steering wheel with both hands.The cars of the vanguard had already parked in the open space outside the factory, and Wan Tong's car and several later cars were neatly lined up on the right side of the country road one kilometer away, leaving room for traffic on the left.

They locked the car and walked forward. In the penultimate car, the rear right window suddenly slid down, and a black object was put in silently.

More than a dozen white lights illuminated the air outside the factory, and the blasting team leader reported the news to Nie Zhilan: "Team Nie, it's been scanned, and it's safe inside."

"Okay." Nie Zhilan turned around and arranged, "The search and rescue team and the emergency medical staff are with us, and the others are on standby."

"Wow, woof." A few dog barks broke the tranquility of the night, and Bobo's trainer pulled it, showing concern, "The little guy's condition has not been very good in recent days, and his appetite has also decreased. Only police officer Xiaowan is here. When it's time, it can play happily for a while."

"It won't go in, let's change to mighty and big gray." After Nie Zhilan finished speaking, she held the gun, loaded it, gave instructions with her hand, and walked at the front of the line. keep up.

Nie Zhiyan watched the crowd enter the factory, bent down and gently stroked Bobu's head, the horse dog's piercing eyes seemed to be covered with mist, and made a howling sound.

"They will be safe."

-----------------------------------------------------------

In the factory, the police dogs quickly found the entrance to the basement, and the wooden board was opened from the outside, indicating that the murderer may have escaped.They walked down the wooden stairs, and there were two people lying beside the messy dining table, blood was still flowing out, it was unknown whether they were dead or alive.

"Dead." Said the policeman who stepped forward to investigate.

"Zhu Fang, inform the colleagues in the forensic department outside, and the others separate to search for evidence."

They looked for the light and walked in. The people tied to the iron frame made everyone's eyes freeze, and Wan Tong's eyes turned red instantly.

"He died." The emergency doctor shook his head heavily, and bowed his head in silence to Chu Tao. Everyone in the Criminal Investigation Detachment immediately stopped what they were doing and fell silent.

Nie Zhilan clenched her right fist tightly, her gums creaked, and she walked towards Chu Tao step by step.Many men shed hot tears. They lowered their heads and tried not to sob.

Wan Tong stared at Chu Tao without blinking, and the scenes of getting along with him in the past were shown one after another.

"I'm one year older than you, so just call me brother."

"My sister's business is my business. I have to go up the mountain of swords and down into the sea of ​​fire."

"My daughter is so good, would you like to be her godmother?"

"When will you get married? Give birth to a boy. I don't mind letting Hanhan develop a sister-brother relationship."

"Hanhan's third birthday, I will accompany their mother and daughter tonight, and I will treat everyone to dinner tomorrow."

……

Wan Tong covered her mouth, her teeth were biting the tiger's mouth, tears poured out one after another, she suddenly thought of something, turned around and walked towards the wooden ladder.

"Where are you going?" Nie Zhilan let go of Chu Tao's limbs, without looking back.

"Bring something." Han Han asked her to bring Chu Tao's painting.

"Zhu Fang followed her."

Nie Zhilan frowned and looked at the elbow sockets of Chu Tao's arms, her worried expression was obvious.There are only two people in the forensic department, so Nie Zhiyan must be the one who came down.

At the corner of the wooden ladder, Wan Tong and Nie Zhiyan's eyes met. The woman looked at the corners of her eyes that still had tears pouring down, she understood, took a deep breath, patted her on the shoulder, and walked away with the investigation box.

Lu Dongdong wore gloves to carefully examine the two people at the dining table: "Boss, this person has two gunshot wounds on the chest and back, and that person has three gunshot wounds, all of which were fatal in place, with no trace of movement."

"Okay." Nie Zhiyan turned around, and a group of colleagues with their heads bowed came into view. She tightly held the hand of the investigation box, and slowly approached, two or three policemen stepped out of the way.

Chu Tao lay flat on the icy ground, walking uneasy.

Nie Zhilan deliberately covered his elbow with the clothes she took off, but with the sensitivity and professionalism of the forensic doctor, Nie Zhiyan had already made a judgment and overdose to death.

The woman closed her eyes, and her arms began to tremble unconsciously. She exhaled shallowly and urgently, giving herself psychological hints again and again.

"The one in front of you is Chu Tao, who is suffering from inhuman torture. You have to help him speak."

"Nie Zhiyan, although drugs are a scourge, you have an obligation to face them, you must face them."

"Do your best to reduce other people's persecution."

"Nie Zhiyan, don't be afraid."

……

She opened her eyes again. Although hesitation was still flashing in the bottom of her eyes, she had already squatted down and lifted Chu Tao's coat with trembling hands.

---------------------------------------------------------

As soon as Wan Tong left the factory, Bobo rushed over, she carelessly wiped the tears off her face, hugged the horse dog, and said in a hoarse voice: "Bobo, I'm working, I'll feed you delicious food when I get back of."

Putting down Bubu, Wan Tong turned his head to Zhu Fang and said, "Brother Zhu, I'm going to get something from the car, Brother Tao's daughter's, you don't have to follow."

"Okay, you go."

"Wow, woof, woof, woof." Boo Boo barked again eagerly.

The trainer suggested: "Xiao Wan, take it with you, it's safe."

"Let's go." Wan Tong agreed, took the leash, and with the flashlight on, walked towards the dark country road.

"Boo, Brother Tao has left us."

"Ow."

"I'll never see him again."

"Ouch..."

"Don't run so fast, I'm tired and I can't keep up." Bobo broke free from the leash with great strength.

"Bobu, you." Wan Tong quickened his pace and began to trot, when Bobu in front suddenly slowed down and hovered on the left side of her car.Wan Tong pressed the car key, stepped forward and just opened the door of the left rear seat, the horse dog jumped up, and then jumped down with something in its mouth, bypassed Wan Tong, and desperately went to the right ran across the ridge.

"Boo, what are you doing..." Wan Tong raised his head, before he finished speaking, he heard a bang, and before he could react, the air wave carried sparks towards his face...

The girl was thrown out due to the powerful impact, and hit the mountain on the left side heavily, then fell down...

In the basement, in a confined space, a little noise from outside could be faintly heard. Nie Zhiyan's heart stopped suddenly, and her right hand, which was about to untie Chu Tao's clothes, stopped in the air, and an ominous premonition struck.

"What happened?" Nie Zhilan asked while holding the walkie-talkie.

"There's an explosion ahead, we're heading there."

"Where are Zhu Fang and Wan Tong?"

"Captain Nie, Wan Tong led Bu Bu to get things in the car."

Nie Zhilan tended to continue to ask questions. Just as she opened her mouth, the woman beside her had already stood up, walking unsteadily towards her back: "Dongdong, I'll leave this to you."

"Captain Nie, Wan Tong is injured, life or death is unknown." Zhu Fang's hoarse voice came out from the intercom, and the woman who had just climbed the two-story wooden ladder felt a tearing pain in her heart. Although her leg had almost recovered, it was severe. Running still did not dare to try.

However, in the next second, the wooden ladder made a rapid and dull sound.

Five or six cars were blown up and overturned in all directions around the path, emitting smoke.On the right side of the mountain, two nurses surrounded the lying person and were doing emergency rescue. Behind Nie Zhiyan, the emergency doctor was trotting, unable to keep up with the woman's pace.

Nie Zhiyan stopped by Wan Tong's side, ignoring the pain caused by the long-distance running, knelt down straight, her brows moved slightly, and asked, "What's the situation?"

"The heart stopped beating for 30 seconds and the airway was opened."

"illumination."

The woman crossed her right hand and left hand, her upper body leaned forward, her arms were perpendicular to Wan Tong's chest wall, and the heels of her palms touched her lower sternum and pressed down, counting silently in her heart.

1, 2, 3... 29, 30, the lying person did not respond.

The kneeling person moved his hands away, placed the inside of his left palm on Wan Tong's forehead, pinched her nostrils with his thumb and index finger, and gently lifted his chin with his right hand, tilting his head back as far as possible.Afterwards, Nie Zhiyan stared at the other person's face that was beginning to turn pale and was full of small scars, her brows were heavy but with unspeakable emotions, she took a deep breath, her thin lips parted slightly, she opened her mouth and bent over Wan Tong's slightly opened mouth, Breathe slowly.How I wish I could feel the shallow breath coming from the tip of my nose, but after 1.5 seconds, Wan Tong still didn't feel anything.

The woman turned her head to take a breath, and a teardrop slipped quietly from the corner of her eye.

He bent down again, mouth to mouth, got up, crossed his hands and continued to press without stopping for a moment.

"Forensic Doctor Nie, replace me." The emergency doctor suggested that the exchange between the two could save energy.

Nie Zhiyan acted as if she hadn't heard it, exerting force again and again.

"Tongtong, wake up, Tongtong."

Shouted like a loser.

"Wan Xiaotong!"

Thirty times later, he pinched her nose and lowered his head again. His hot red lips touched the slightly cold lips of the other party. Before he could breathe out, Wan Tong's eyelids suddenly opened, and he stared fixedly at the woman in front of him.

Are you dreaming?Why is Aunt Yan crying?

There was a slight movement of the lips, before there was time to react and recollect, the severe pain in the chest spread: "Cough cough, cough cough."

"Forensic Doctor Nie, she's awake."

Nie Zhiyan turned her head away, sat up on her knees, and quickly returned her gaze to the person who had just woken up.

The hypoxic state disappeared, Wan Tong's head reacted quickly again, and her face instantly became red, and she called her hoarsely: "Aunt Yan."

With tears still on Nie Zhiyan's cheeks, she responded with a gentle voice: "Well, I'm here."

Wan Tong once again made sure that she was dreaming, otherwise Aunt Yan's lips opened and closed, why she couldn't hear the sound, she didn't plan to think about it, as long as she was in the dream now.

But why is it so painful? Didn’t it mean that dreaming doesn’t hurt?She stretched out her hand with difficulty, trying to pull the flesh on her leg, and in the next second, her hand was wrapped in warm five fingers.

"what happened?"

Still can't hear.

Wan Tong's puzzled expression, dry lips: "It hurts."

"The ambulance is coming, let's go to the hospital."

She held her hand and hoped that this dream would last longer.

"There is no fracture. Fortunately, there was a heavy rain two hours ago, and the soil where it fell was relatively soft." The nurse beside him rubbed his chest.

Another nurse was also in a very good mood: "The little police officer must be blessed if he survives a catastrophe."

As soon as Nie Zhiyan breathed a sigh of relief, he heard Zhu Fang's deep voice coming from behind: "The police dog team's Bubu bombed Xiaowan beyond recognition, and its trainer is collecting the body."

The woman's hand holding Wan Tong tightened suddenly.

"Aunt Yan, what's wrong?" She could clearly feel that the dream was so real?

"I'll come back as soon as I go, nurse, please put her into the ambulance first." Nie Zhiyan carefully took her hand out of Wan Tong's, stood up with difficulty, and faced the two or three people standing by the bright flashlight not far away. Pace the place.

If it is daytime, there must be white smoke.Under the light of a few beams of white lights, Bobo was blown to pieces, bloody and bloody, and all the body parts could not be found.The trainer wept silently as he tugged on its leash, and there was still a wooden plaque carved by Wan Tong himself on the leash two days ago...

The two of them worked together to lift Wan Tong onto the stretcher, Xu Shi touched a sore spot, she frowned, coughed heavily, and fell asleep again.Chu Tao was also moved out of the basement, and Nie Zhilan left a few police officers and trace inspectors to deal with the follow-up work, and got into the investigation vehicle.

When Nie Zhiyan came back, she felt that her feet were like a heavy weight, and the continuous stimulation and depression seemed to make it a luxury for her to even move half a minute. The nurse yelled before closing the door, and the woman subconsciously raised her head, stepped into the ambulance, and sat on the right side.

On the stretcher, Wan Tong closed her eyes tightly, and the normal saline had been applied, but her condition seemed to be unstable.

"It hurts, it's not a big problem." The emergency doctor reassured her.

"Yes, thank you doctor."

"You are from a clinical background, the first aid process looks very professional."

"um, yes."

The woman responded coldly, as if she didn't want to talk too much.

It's not impolite, but it's really too tiring, and because I put all my heart on Wan Tong, I don't want to distract myself with too many words.

A car cleared the way, and the ambulance was in the second place. The country road was slightly bumpy, with many left and right turns. Nie Zhiyan squatted halfway, holding the hand of the man on the stretcher.She murmured in a low voice: "Brother Tao, can you eat slowly..."

What a dream.

If possible, I wish everything that happened tonight was a dream.

-------------------------------------------------- -----------------------

In the Affiliated Hospital of Binnan University, less than a month after being discharged from the hospital, Wan Tong was rushed into the examination room again.

Slight concussion, slight rib fractures, multiple bruises on the body, and other things, you won't know until someone wakes up.Nie Zhiyan didn't rest, she sat on the chair beside the bed and guarded her, just like Wan Tong guarded her before.

The girl's mind was in a mess, and she had many dreams, dreaming of Chu Tao, dreaming of colleagues from the detachment having a drink together, dreaming of Zhao Yingying, and finally dreaming of Nie Zhiyan.

He was about to die, and was hugged and cried by Aunt Yan.

Nie Zhiyan saw that the right hand of the person on the bed was shaking slightly, and she reached out to hold it unconsciously.

Thought she was going to wake up, but there was no movement for a long time.

Wan Tong looked at the other party crying uncontrollably, could feel the pain in his heart, the inexplicable thought was about to come out, could he be a little selfish and tell the secret that had been buried in his heart for a long time before his life was about to fall?

She moved her eyelids, and sincere words floated out of her throat one by one: "Aunt Yan, I, like you."

The author has something to say: Good night.

Good dreams.
