The slaughter of the bones [criminal investigation]

"Captain Nie, this forest is really deep." Yu Lu looked at the endless winding uphill road in front of him, and spoke in a panting voice.

This hill is not small, you can't see it from the outside, it just looks like a small thing adorning the nearby buildings, and when you go inside, you will curse the person who opened the road here why can't open a straight road.

Nie Zheng walked in front of Yu Lu, and his steps gradually slowed down, turning left and right for a while, this road is too difficult to walk.

The cicadas chirped louder as they went in, and the lush trees became denser. They decided to just walk to the top of the mountain like this, and at worst they called out to see if there was anyone in the woods.

However, Yu Lu found something novel on the road: "Hey Nie team, is there a house over there?" He stopped in his tracks.

Nie Zheng took a deep breath, glanced at Yu Lu who was buried in the shadow of the tree behind him, and then raised his head to look forward at the position where Yu Lu's fingers were placed.

It was indeed a house, but it was hard to see where it was located. They struggled through the trees with no road to reach it.

It's made of wood and has a small area. It's better to call it a warehouse than a house.

This house is really abrupt, as if it appeared across the sky like this on the slope, and looking to the side, you can see endless green.If it wasn't for the cover of these trees, Nie Zheng wouldn't have missed this because he only looked at the road ahead.

"Go in and have a look?" Yu Lu raised his head to look up, opened his mouth slightly to breathe, and soon returned to the normal frequency and stopped panting.

Nie Zheng hesitated for a moment, seeing that the building seemed to have existed for a long time, with signs of corrosion on the walls, and moss-like things on the wildly growing weeds underneath.

He glanced in the direction of the door. The door had a handle and a keyhole, and he wasn't sure if it was open: "Well, go in and have a look."

Nie Zheng tried the door, but it seemed to be locked, the handle couldn't be pushed down, and the door couldn't be pushed open.

"Break the door?" Yu Lu put his hands in his pockets, stepped back a few steps in a decent manner, bent his right leg slightly, and was ready to kick the door open.

"it is good."

A few seconds after the voice fell, Nie Zheng kicked the door in.

Yu Lu was more unlucky, because Nie Zheng also ran into the air with his legs delayed by a few seconds, but his speed was a little slower than Nie Zheng's, so he jumped into the air, his feet didn't touch the door, and his center of gravity was instantly unstable... …

Yu Lu: Fuck Team Nie, your operations are too ruthless.

He fell backwards, grabbing the door frame but failed to catch it, and his mind seemed to be empty for a moment.

So it was the perfect hero saving the beauty - Nie Zheng grabbed Yu Lu's wrist and pulled him forward, Yu Lu was saved!

The cold wrist touched Nie Zheng's warm hand at that moment, and Yu Lu shuddered. It took a lot of effort for his right foot to find the ground, and Nie Zheng let go after regaining his balance.

"Sorry, are you okay?" Nie Zheng watched him finally stand still, with no expression on his face, scratching his head with his right hand, probably apologetic in his heart.

"It's okay...it's okay." Yu Lu was still immersed in the warmth on his wrist, moved his body twice, and staggered to follow Nie Zheng across the threshold of the cabin and walked in.

He groped for his chest, grabbed his clothes, and struggled with the meaning of the heartbeat disorder just now.

The two of them looked into the room together: there was nothing... just like this idiom, there was nothing, and as far as the eye could see, there was only an endless floor made of wooden boards, covered with dust.

Although a little regretful, it is reasonable. Nie Zheng took two photos, went in and looked through them, and found that there was nothing similar to the design of the hidden compartment.

"Let's go," he greeted Yu Lu who looked at the corner of the wall in a daze and seemed to be thinking about something, "Nobody and nothing."

The worrying thing called Shen Yu is not here. Although Nie Zheng regrets not being able to solve this small case quickly and follow up the murder case, he can only continue to look for it.

"Hey... well." Yu Lu looked away from the corner of the wall, shook his head, followed Nie Zheng out the door, closed the door politely, and then walked to the top of the mountain.

The two went back to the original path, Yu Lu looked at the ground and asked: "Captain Nie, how old is this Shen Yu?"

Nie Zheng recalled for a moment: "I haven't missed a grade, so if I was a sophomore in high school, I'd be seventeen." He didn't pay much attention to what was behind him, but Yu Lu's expression suddenly became serious.

Afterwards, nothing was found on the top of the mountain, so Yu Lu yelled symbolically: "Shen Yu, are you there, little brat—!" But naturally, no one responded to them.

If you go down from the top of the mountain, it will be a fault-like place. There are no trees or railings to protect it. The ground is mostly rocks. If you accidentally fall down, you will die, but there is still a possibility of fracture.

Yu Lu's echo reverberated in the hill for a long time, and the youthful clear voice played back in Nie Zheng's ears. Nie Zheng was a little fascinated, until Yu Lu gave up and shouted: "Let's go."

Yu Lu coughed twice, said yes, and followed Nie Zheng back the same way.

The downhill walk was much faster, and the two of them didn't have much conversation along the way. After returning to the road, Nie Zheng received a call from Jiang Jiu saying that Shen Yu's family members had made trouble at the police station, so he took the first step.

Yu Lu waved goodbye to Nie Zheng with a smile, and after getting the spare key of Nie Zheng's house, he planned to take a stroll around here.

Seeing Nie Zheng's figure disappear into the sunlight in front of him, Yu Lu put away his crappy smile, and looked up to see that the dark clouds had indeed dissipated. This ghostly place is half an hour away from Nie Zheng's house, but he didn't seem to be in a hurry Go back quickly.

Yu Lu wandered to a small open-air restaurant, ordered two small dishes, took out his mobile phone and found that it was already afternoon, after a moment of deliberation, he decided to call Qiao Xiaozhi.

The phone rang for half a minute, Yu Lu was not in a hurry to hang up the phone, and just quietly waited for Qiao Xiaozhi to answer the phone.

His mind is very confused now, all kinds of complicated things are running around in his mind, and his heart beats like angina pectoris at other times.

"Why are you doing it? Why don't you ask people to see a doctor properly." Qiao Xiaozhi answered the phone.

Yu Lu didn't continue talking quickly, there were very few people in the restaurant, but some people noticed his eyes under the long eyelashes, which looked as dull as a dead person.

"Hey, talk, I'm just leaving the patient aside to answer your call, can you give me a response?" Qiao Xiaozhi was talking, and accidentally heard a few uneven breathing on the other end of the phone, "...what's wrong? Brain convulsions again?" He frowned.

"I ask you, was I also 17 when I was wronged?" His voice was very low.

Qiao Xiaozhi frowned even tighter: "Well, what's wrong?"

Yu Lu didn't speak for a long time again, the waiter brought the food in front of him and made noises, he seemed to have regained his composure: "I think someone will be wronged again, and... I probably know who it is. "

Qiao Xiaozhi was stunned. Hearing Yu Lu's slightly trembling voice, he didn't think he was lying: "What's the situation? Tell me from the beginning."

"I saw that mark," Yu Lu recalled the corner of the wooden house he saw just now, where there was a small mark of a marker pen, which was a solid circle surrounded by a hollow circle, "I told you, when I The one I saw when I escaped."

Yu Lu seemed to have a headache, so he took two mouthfuls of the rice in front of him, but he was not in the mood to eat any more.

Taking advantage of Qiao Xiaozhi's recovery, he continued, "I'm wondering...whether the case of Team Nie is the same person as it was three years ago."

Qiao Xiaozhi didn't reply for a long time, and Yu Lu didn't say any more. The two of them just froze and didn't hang up the phone.

Two more people went out of the dining room, and there was a sound of pots and pans colliding together. Yu Lu looked up at the door, and a few kids who seemed to have skipped class passed by the door.

Qiao Xiaozhi finally got a response: "How many possibilities do you think are there?"

Yu Lu fiddled with the bowl of rice twice with his chopsticks: "90.00%, although the method is different... But I don't think this mark is just a coincidence."

The last sense of humor in Qiao Xiaozhi's voice was gone: "Are you going to tell Team Nie? Maybe it can save people, but whether he can believe it is also a question."

Yu Lu let out a long sigh: "I... think about it."

After that, the two didn't say anything, and Qiao Xiaozhi hung up because he was urged by the patient.

Yu Lu didn't finish that meal, he left after drinking the glass of ice water he gave him, and walked on the street where there were no people, his face lost his smile, and only gradually became gloomy.

It was really a feeling of wanting to cry, but he still remembered that he saw the serial murderer on the news confirming that he was himself, and wanted to defend himself, only to hear the following sentence - it has been confirmed that he died in the accident.

Of course he knew that it would be better for Nie Zheng to explain it to Nie Zheng now, but he couldn't say it, and he didn't dare to tell Nie Zheng the slightest bit.

Feeling uncomfortable again, he decided to go to the black street and wait for Nie Zheng to get off work.Perhaps seeing Nie Zheng could make him feel a little more at ease.

……

Nie Zheng had also returned to the office at this time, he didn't find anything wrong with Yu Lun, and when he came to that Shen Yu's mother, he could speak with that face very calmly:

"We are also trying our best to find your son, please don't worry..." There were only a few words of comfort, and Nie Zheng used them all, and finally made the two tearful old mothers compromise and leave.

Jiang Jiu went out when he came, saying that there was not enough instant noodles in stock to buy some, and it was only after Nie Zheng spent an hour with all his strength to appease the family members that he came back.

"Is it shameless to be so particular about your trick of cheating Team Nie?" Tai Mingming held Jiang Jiu aside and looked at the box of instant noodles he came to the office.

"What do you know, I call it a tactical retreat." Jiang Jiu put the instant noodles on the desk, and sat back in front of the computer with his legs crossed, his unshaven appearance made him look a bit cheap.

Nie Zheng didn't say a word, he was not very good at mixing in this kind of chat, so he quietly went about his own business.

a few hours later-

Nie Zheng received a call: "The homicide has happened again! Team Nie, hurry over here!" It was Wu Wen who called.

Nie Zheng: "...Fuck."
