The slaughter of the bones [criminal investigation]

"What did you find?" Nie Zheng was a little nervous. It happened that the taxi arrived, so he simply dragged the other two while answering the phone.

Yu Lu was in Qiao Xiaozhi's clinic at this time, sitting in the seat Qiao Xiaozhi had been sitting in with a complicated mood, sighed, jumped off his seat and glanced at the door, there was no sign of anyone coming in.

The clinic originally had a sign that said it was closed today, and the previous one that was hung up to tease Yu Lu, "Do not enter if you abuse the dog", was also taken off and thrown aside.From the moment Yu Lu walked down the stairs and saw this scene, there was a dead silence here, not a single person was there.

Naturally, Qiao Xiaozhi was nowhere to be found. He tried all kinds of contact methods, but he didn't reply to the message, and he only said that the phone was turned off when he called.

Turning on the light and looking around in the clinic, Yu Lu soon found a simple little book, quite thick and a bit old, it seemed that he didn’t remember much, and it was thrown on the most conspicuous place on the table in the consulting room. Next to it was a blue and silver medicine box.

He fiddled with the box a couple of times first, it was the packing box of the relaxant that can kill people, it was empty, nothing was there.He raised his eyebrows, tried to keep himself calm, wiped his eyes back and forth twice, and went to check the little book.

The first page is hard, and the writing on it is very deep. Qiao Xiaozhi's handwriting is good, and you can still see it. The word "Lin Zhi" is written on it.

Yu Lu read another two pages, and quickly understood that this was Qiao Xiaozhi's record about the progress of the patients he managed. It was probably not the only book, but since Qiao Xiaozhi wanted to release this book, it must be have their own reasons.

It stated the date of his first contact with Lin Biao—it was nearly four years ago, and there was nothing special about the condition. The most important thing was the note written by Qiao Xiaozhi at the bottom: This person is a bit strange, thinking so Why are you picking up on me?Scary ah nmd.

Yu Lu covered his mouth and couldn't help laughing, this doctor pig is really hard to change his nature.

But the smile disappeared quickly, and he stared at the word "strike up a conversation" in a daze, wishing to pull Qiao Xiaozhi out of the small notebook to ask the meaning of the word.

Scrolling down, many of them are normal consultation records. It is estimated that this person is still very attentive to the patients, and the points that require more attention in the notes are always increasing.

The more he looked at it, the more he felt that Lin Zhuo had always been a weirdo in his records, with a lot of skin injuries and physical problems, but he always felt that there were a few times when he came to find trouble with Qiao Xiaozhi on purpose—— Scuffed a small piece of skin or something.

According to the records, it can also be seen that Lin Zhuo's strength seems to be quite strong, and Qiao Xiaozhi has secretly recorded several experiences of being injured by Lin Zhuo.

Continuing to turn page by page, Yu Lu was cautious, his three views were subverted again and again, he rubbed his eyes and looked at his phone again, but no one replied to him.

Next to a date that looked familiar, there was no description of Lin Hao's physical condition, only Qiao Xiaozhi's own line sighed: I didn't expect this person to do it.

It didn't take long for Yu Lu to remember this date - it was the day when Shen Yu killed his classmate in the same ward.

For a moment, he couldn't understand who "this person" was referring to, and he really felt that he couldn't stand alone, so there was the scene of dialing Nie Zheng's phone later.

He told Nie Zheng everything he saw, and then continued to look back and connect to the phone.

"Are you sure no one saw Dr. Qiao go out?" Nie Zheng looked a little dignified. Now Qiao Xiaozhi and Lin Hao are both missing, which means that they may be the ones who killed the victim who survived so hard. .

"Well," Yu Lu answered seriously, flipping through his hands very slowly, trying not to miss any important details, "The secret door... I'll look for it if there is one."

The interior of Qiao Xiaozhi's clinic has always been at the junction of chaos and chaos. If it is not chaos, at least his equipment is neatly placed, and the hygiene standards can at least meet the standards by visual inspection; if it is chaos...he really bought a lot A cupboard for things.

Yu Lu turned on the hands-free cell phone and put it aside, and closed the small notebook for the time being, just to give himself a break to relax his eyes, to find the largest and fullest cabinet in front of him, and to pull, pull, and kick again. After a few feet, I finally moved away.

The medicine bottles above rattled.Nie Zheng also returned to the police station at this moment, taking advantage of this spare time to tell him about the murder of the victim.

"If the murderer really wants to play an end-to-end echo," Yu Lu squeezed into the gap between the cabinet and the wall alone. Although the light has been turned on to the brightest, the situation still feels too dark, "then we don't hurry up." , there is no chance." He lifted the sleeve of his coat and wiped off the cold sweat on his head with his wrist.

"Well," Nie Zheng has sat down in the office again, turning on the computer to sort out the current situation, "If the murderer thinks like that and wants to be completely consistent, then Lin Zhi should indeed be the last of the murderer. The goal, to find Lin Bou alive is our only hope."

"But the two of you should also take into consideration that, as I said before, the murderer is most likely to be a very rational person, and it's not uncommon to take advantage of our guesses about his law of attack." Jiang Jiu couldn't help but move his mouth to add while listening. .

Yu Lu just squeezed in and took a few breaths. The clinic was full of the sound of his breathing. There was a layer of newspaper glued to the back of the cupboard. The dates were quite old, and the most recent one was three or four years ago.

He tore out the newspaper piece by piece, the screeching sound of tearing made people uncomfortable.After working like this for a long time, he realized that the secret passage had nothing to do with the newspaper—the newspaper was just a cover for the eyes and ears, and there was a hidden groove under it. Pull it to the left, and a door appeared.

There is no spectacular sound effect as imagined when the door of the secret room is opened, it is very light, and it is easily opened, and there does not seem to be a locked position.

He went back the same way and took a mobile phone and ran back. The secret passage was a bit crude, a bit like it was dug by hand, but maybe a small unlicensed construction team could do it cheaply.At the end of the secret passage is an upward staircase. When you reach the top, you open a strange and thick cover. The scenery in front of you makes Yu Lun speechless for a while.

——It is the warehouse that has become the ruins of Heitan, which was almost in the middle of the original warehouse.

"How is it? Is something wrong?" Nie Zheng was a little worried, because Yu Lu seemed stuck and kept silent.

"Ah...uh," Yu Lu patted his forehead twice to revive his spirits, "It leads directly to that warehouse."

He heard the sound of "poof" from several people in Nie Zheng's place, and probably one or two of them actually spewed water.

There was nothing to see in the warehouse, it was still the same, and Yu Lu couldn't help feeling a bit psychologically shadowed by this place, so he climbed back the same way after walking around but didn't find anyone.

He paced back and forth in that not-so-long secret passage for a long time, and finally took a deep breath and returned to the clinic.

When he came out, he accidentally bumped into the cupboard, the medicine bottles on it fell to the ground and broke a few, and a large booklet that seemed to be on the top floor fell on Yu Lu's forehead impartially.

"Oh, fuck, fuck, it hurts." Yu Lu scratched his head, and casually complained to Nie Zheng who quickly asked him what's wrong.Afterwards, he closed the secret passage door, and sat back in his seat with this booklet that was destined to be with him.

Yu Lu glanced at the contents on the cover of the booklet.

Yu Lu: ...

"Nie team, I found that my luck is really good."

"What's wrong?" Nie Zheng covered his mouth and yawned quietly.

On the booklet, "Because it is the last patient to be picked up, let's record more symbolically", such a large line of words is written on it.

For a moment, Yu Lu felt that he could understand the tone of Qiao Xiaozhi's words when he said this--the atmosphere of melancholy contained some sand sculptures, and he probably wrote it while recalling the resignation letter.

The contents of the booklet are indescribably strange. The records such as the date of admission are all neat and tidy. They should stop after the day he leaves the hospital, but Yu Lu flipped through the pages, and there is Most of the book, and each page seems to have a little content.

He looked carefully at the records on the day of the accident:

I am very reconciled but there is nothing I can do, and I don’t know what to do. Although I have known this day will come, it is really difficult to accept my fate...

The next record is a few days after that:

I heard that I have to continue to memorize this book, so I feel uncomfortable?I can't help it if I think so, but after all, it is a matter of my life, so I should remember to keep it secret, and hide it from others to prevent others from seeing it.

Yu Lu looked at the content of this page in a daze.Who is the uncomfortable person?And what are life-threatening matters?He didn't understand it at all, thinking that maybe he would look back and find something.

He was about to turn the page, and his eyes followed the fingers of his right hand to the lower right corner of the booklet. There was a small "X", and he didn't know what it meant.

Continue to read, there is a "-3" symbol in the record two days later, the text reads: I guess I won't come to my place for a while, it's finally clean, I didn't expect to be framed by that guy and resign Ask for a quiet time for yourself?But it's cruel to worry about not being able to see the sun of tomorrow every day.

Another week later, there was no record, only the "X" symbol, and several pages were only date and symbols. Yu Lu didn't understand the meaning of this at once, and read a few time points in pieces.

Because the phone call with Nie Zheng was not hung up, Nie Zheng heard very clearly: "The date of the murder victim's death three years ago?" Difference.

Yu Lu was also a little surprised, and couldn't help speeding up the page-turning speed. After more than 20 sheets of paper with almost no content, there was a sentence: the record ends here.

He frowned, and continued to turn down unwillingly. Blank pages of paper quickly passed before his eyes.

The date is today, and three words are clearly written on it: It's over.

As if he could feel the sense of relief brought by these three words, Yu Lu moved his hand to the side, and even saw the pen that was casually thrown aside.I vaguely remember Qiao Xiaozhi also said that it was quite expensive.

"Captain Nie, I'll send you all my photos here." Yu Lu sighed, stood up slowly, and patted the ashes off his body, "I'll go to another place to have a look."

"Well," Nie Zheng tapped the keyboard with one hand, "It's hard work, it's raining heavily, so be careful."

"Alright." Yu Lu smiled.
