The slaughter of the bones [criminal investigation]

When he woke up, it was already Friday morning, Nie Zheng was woken up by the alarm clock, lifted the thin quilt, got up and turned off the alarm clock.

The weather is really getting hotter every day, and there is still nearly a month before the summer vacation of the group of students, and they wake up sweating without turning on the air conditioner.

The white walls don't seem to have any breath of life. Nie Zheng didn't put anything in the bedroom, and the desk was just a decoration without anything.

He opened the door and went out, went straight to the bathroom, and heard some movement in the kitchen by chance, so he went to have a look after he woke up completely.

"Ah, good morning, Team Nie," Yu Lu was frying poached eggs, and a unique faint aroma filled the kitchen, "I woke up first even if I couldn't sleep for a long time, and I will make breakfast from now on."

Yu Lu said it didn't matter, but in fact it was because of Qiao Xiaozhi's few words that he didn't sleep well. He sat on the sofa and meditated at six o'clock in the morning, quietly watching the sun getting brighter and brighter.

With the idea of ​​improving the food for himself and Nie Zheng and not eating dark dishes, he squatted down and started the fire a little earlier than when Nie Zheng got up to make breakfast.

"Thank you." Nie Zheng didn't intend to turn down this kindness. Judging from Yu Lu's expression yesterday, he probably knew that there was a big problem with his rather improvised way of arranging the plates. It would be good to leave it to him like that.

The two ate breakfast quickly, Nie Zheng glanced at Yu Lu, his smile seemed to be hanging there all the time, it was really cute.

Nie Zheng took a closer look and saw that Yu Lu's complexion was not very good. He didn't know if it was dark circles or something else: "Didn't sleep well?"

Yu Lu took half a mouthful of the poached egg in his mouth, and after swallowing, he said slowly: "It's okay, it's just a little bit of fun chatting with that guy George." You can't tell Nie Zheng all your thoughts.

Nie Zheng looked down and thought for a while, looking at the empty plate in front of him, the remaining soy sauce in it reflected a little under the bright light: "Go to bed early."

Yu Lu laughed, and replied "OK".He has a big heart, and Qiao Xiaozhi's words have long been forgotten.That's right, it's a day to be able to hide for a day, isn't it how I've been here in my life until now?

Nie Zheng and Yu Lu went out together. Nie Zheng wanted Yu Lu to sleep for a while and come to him after he got to the office to understand the situation thoroughly, but Yu Lu wanted to save time and decided to go to the black street Waiting at the entrance and exit.

Nie Zheng didn't persuade him any more, so he just let him go.

The two of them were quite quiet along the way, and the black street was not noisy. The few gangsters we saw last night discussing "what to do if the boss is dead" have already hidden in the dark where the sun can't shine.

Yu Lu suddenly thought of something and said, "Hey team Nie, that... Police Officer Jiang Jiu, why does it feel like he always tells you to do your job?"

Nie Zheng choked for a moment, and thought about it for a while. Yesterday, he was ordered by Lao Jiang to arrest the fugitive, and at night it was a temporary notification of a disappearance case.

In fact, according to his position, Jiang Jiu should be a team member under Nie Zheng...a person under Nie Zheng's command.

It is normal for Yu Lu to wonder why Jiang Jiu's news is better than Nie Zheng's.

Nie Zheng glanced at the ground: "I remember the director said that the reason was that he would be a little scared when talking to me, so it's easier to talk to Lao Jiang."

Yu Lu couldn't help laughing, and carefully observed Nie Zheng's expressionless face for a long time: "Captain Nie, I think this is quite right."

Nie Zheng's paralyzed face said that it is impossible to always be kind. When Yu Lu met for the first time, he was a little worried that this might be someone not to be messed with, but who made him so courageous? Little bum.

"Captain Nie, you better stop keeping that face frozen, or one day the captain's position might be snatched away by police officer Jiang Jiu."

Yu Lu walked up to Nie Zheng, and showed him the lively corners of his mouth, "If you don't smile, you're unlucky, but if you smile, you might become stronger."

Nie Zheng was silent for a moment: "I'll try." He tried hard to count how many times he had smiled in the past six months, but in the end he only counted the two times when he smiled because of Yu Lu.

In this situation, the black street came to an end in a blink of an eye, and Nie Zheng continued to walk forward, while Yu Lu waved goodbye at the same place, thinking about what to buy for Nie Zheng's lunch.

……

When Nie Zheng arrived at the office, the white shirt he was wearing alone was half wet.

He listened to the director, who had two drops of cold sweat on his head, explaining to himself the details of the case and the reason for finding the serious crimes team——

The missing student's name is Shen Yu. It is said that he disappeared after leaving school more than a week ago.

In fact, it is reasonable to say that this kind of young people running away from home impulsively does not need to bother the serious crimes team, but the reason for this, Mr. Director, also explained very clearly:

All the surveillance around the school did not capture the shadow of this student named Shen Yu, and no one said that anyone had seen him after that day.

Due to various reasons of being unable to start an investigation and not daring to go to school to bother the group of high school students who were always preparing for the exam, the case went around and went to Nie Zheng.

The chief said to him: "We have already sent additional manpower for the serial murder case, so you should deal with it quickly." Then he left in a hurry.

Behind him, Jiang Jiu pressed the enter key and leaned against the back of the chair, and hit the wall with the chair's rollers: "Captain Nie, the communication relationship has also been sorted out, let's figure it out, come on."

The whole team originally agreed that the others would leave the disappearance aside and concentrate on the serial murder case. As for this small case, it would be handed over to Nie Zheng, who was once the fastest solver.

Nie Zheng nodded his thanks as usual, and left the office with a notebook in hand.He doesn't like to have too much information in his hand, it's better not to print out that kind of thing, the display on the phone is clear enough.

"Where are the others?" He suddenly found that it was quite deserted here today, and now there were only five people in the office including him and Jiang Jiu.

"Tai Mingming went to the black street to investigate again. Sister Wen went to 'interview' the family members of the previous deceased, and there is another..." Jiang Jiu was stunned for a moment, and looked at the empty space on his right, "The new kid The kid is not feeling well and asked for leave."

Nie Zheng didn't plan to ask any more questions, thinking that the new team member hadn't been here for a long time, and planned to ask when he had time.

"By the way, Team Nie," Jiang Jiu asked curiously with his legs up on the table, "What's the name of your navigator?"

Nie Zheng thought for a while before recalling that he was talking about Yu Lu, and then told Jiang Jiu his name. Jiang Jiu closed his eyes and raised his eyebrows, then nodded again, God knows what he cared about.

"I'm going first, and I'll tell you anytime I have clues." Nie Zheng saw Jiang Jiu sighed and made an "ok" gesture after finishing speaking.

When Nie Zheng closed the office door, he heard a lazy voice from inside: "I'm the only one left—"

Nie Zheng walked in the direction of the black street, perhaps because he knew that Yu Lu was waiting for him, and his speed became faster.

"Team Nie!" Yu Lu was greeting himself in front of him, the black T-shirt on his body looked from a distance under the sun, but it highlighted his white and tender face.

Nie Zheng walked in quickly, and Yu Lu handed him one of the pancakes he bought just now, saying that he would have some for lunch before going to the high school for investigation.

Looking at the time, it was indeed almost eleven o'clock.

Because they were too lazy to go back to Nie Zheng's house to pick up the car, they hailed a taxi and got in it, told their destination, and An Anxin ate in the back seat.

The journey was estimated to take about half an hour, and Nie Zheng first sorted out the case for Yu Lu.

Both of them felt that there was nothing unusual about this case. Although they were a little concerned about how an ordinary high school student managed to evade surveillance, they didn't think about it.

Nie Zheng flipped through the information on the phone with one hand, and by the way, to pass the time, he also started to read the list of tens of thousands of people.

He habitually propped his left hand on the seat, Yu Lu quietly looked down for a while, raised his hand that was honestly on his thigh, and wanted to touch it lightly, but finally gave up.

The scenery on the road changes back and forth, and there are more students or office workers than those who have already gone to school. Whether it is the subway station, the bus station, or the main road, the most people are wearing suits and leather shoes.

Yu Lu leaned against the window and admired it, not knowing whether it was yearning or something else.

A red light blocked them on the road, Yu Lu picked up his mobile phone and repeatedly "appreciated" the chat records with Qiao Xiaozhi yesterday.

One day three years ago, he was inexplicably charged with murder, and became a dead person in the file. He originally wanted to hide and accept his fate for the rest of his life, but he didn't want to start obsessed with this life of solving crimes with the police.

Just five words: I don't want to leave.

"What's wrong?" Seeing Yu Lu, Nie Zheng's face seemed to turn pale again.

"It's okay, it's okay," Yu Lu shook his head with a smile, "Think about something, and let's figure out what to do in the future."

It’s not wrong to think about the future, but it’s just about how long it will take for Nie Zheng to find out.

Nie Zheng doesn't like to ask the other party to get to the bottom of it. After all, that kind of behavior will make him disgusted if he thinks about it in another way.He didn't ask any more questions about Lu, he just told him to rest when he was tired.

The two got out of the car at the gate of the school, and the driver left, sighing, "Young people nowadays...".

The school's configuration is very ordinary, and it's not a famous school or a gathering place for poor students. There are quite a lot of people, but they are all in class now.

Nie Zheng showed his police officer ID to the guard, and soon went in with Yu Lu, who was traveling with him.

With his hands behind his back, Yu Lu followed gently beside Nie Zheng, looked up at the high classrooms and the faintly visible students inside, and said to himself that this was a life he had never experienced at all.

"Want to study?" Nie Zheng glanced at him, thinking that he could really be a good student to him, and now he might have been admitted to some good university.

"I thought about it, but now I think it's better to be chic and unrestrained." Yu Lu stretched his waist, occasionally recalling the appearance of his unwilling self when he bought a bunch of incomprehensible instructional books as if he was trying to be strong.

Nie Zheng was rushing towards the teaching building without saying a word, the corners of his mouth raised unknowingly.
