critical

Yan Ji looked out the window, the car was speeding, and the iron tower of the base station gradually went away.

Three hours ago, Yang Shuhui sent her home, but was stopped by the criminal police brigade on the way.His red Cadillac was eye-catching, and Bian Peng was just wondering where he was going, but Bian Peng's deputy captain saw Yan Ji in the hospital and knew that she was the informant and the victim's family, so he withdrew it to "find out about the situation."

Bian Peng personally took Yan Ji along the crime scene to restore what happened.After identifying the scene, a small policeman was called to supplement Yan Ji's record.

The sun was scorching hot, and the cicadas were singing weakly.

Yan Ji spoke dryly, and just wanted to end it quickly, but the little policeman had a very high professionalism, scolding the sky and scolding the bugs in the field, and looked like he was going to resign at any time.

It took Yan Ji a whole plate for two hours.

The criminal police team may not pay much attention to the fish and water situation of the police and the people, and after signing and depositing, they did not say that they would send Yan Ji home.The little policeman took out a bottle of hot Nongfu Spring from the trunk and handed it to her: "There is no bus stop here, you go ahead."

Yan Ji remembered that there was an airport bus ticket in the wallet she handed to the Criminal Police Brigade, so she tentatively asked, "Have you checked the airport bus?"

The little policeman glanced at her: "Don't ask around, check it."

Yan Ji heard the meaning of the words, obviously the airport bus had no clues.She nodded her thanks and walked along the road.

The little policeman yelled softly from behind: "Hey, don't leave, I'll give you a Didi call. Go back and quickly get a replacement card, keep the communication open, and we may contact you at any time. This is my number, you can add a WeChat."

When Yan Ji returned to the urban area, the first thing he did was not to replace the phone card, but to the Lightning Car Rental Company.

Reissuing a telephone card is a small matter, but the company's car is a major matter.

Zhao Xiaobing was sitting at the entrance of the company and chatting with the front desk. When he saw Yan Ji through the glass door, he ran out immediately: "Why didn't you answer the phone? I almost called the police, and I was afraid that your phone was out of battery. Hey, why did you stick the phone on your face?" Bandage?"

Yan Ji walked towards the shade of the tree, and distanced himself calmly: "I'm sorry to make you worry. Something happened, and the car is gone. I have already reported the case, and I have to wait for the police to hear the rest."

Zhao Xiaobing was stunned: "Are you fully responsible?"

"Ah."

Zhao Xiaobing scratched his hair, turned his head and glanced at the company's gate: "It's okay, we have bought insurance. Even if the insurance company doesn't pay, we drive all the reduced-configuration cars from the factory. It should be fine."

Yan Ji nodded: "Okay, I'll go in and talk to Mr. Wang first."

Zhao Xiaobing dryly comforted Yan Ji: "Well, don't be too nervous. Mr. Wang is always my father's friend, and he is loyal in Taoism. Oh, it's really not good, I still have some money. Hey, Mr. Wang."

Wang always was a big fat man of three hundred catties, he walked out of the company with a cigarette in his hand and a leather bag under his arm.

"What!" When he heard that the car was gone, Mr. Wang turned blue with anger, and scolded the two of them.Although this road is not bustling, there are many people coming and going, pointing and talking, which helped Mr. Wang, and he continued to scold with another cigarette.

"Okay, okay, old Wang." A man opened the door and got out of the car, his bald forehead gleaming in the sun, "Don't keep the boss waiting."

"Yes, yes, here we come." Mr. Wang threw the cigarette in his hand and trotted over, leaving two old classmates and partners standing still.

Seeing Zhao Xiaobing hanging his head in embarrassment, Yan Ji comforted him, "Mr. Wang has a straight temper and is a very nice person. At least he didn't make us lose money now."

"Yeah." Zhao Xiaobing curled his lips in self-mocking, turned his head and sniffed the T-shirt, "It also gave us a lot of second-hand smoke."

There was a string in Yan Ji's head that was startled, his eyes were fixed on Mr. Wang's bald head, and a similar bald head appeared in his mind.

That's right, it's him.

Yan Ji's nose fluttered, and he took a deep breath.

There was still a faint smell of smoke in the air.

Take another deep breath.

Still, but toned down a bit.

At that time...that smell...it was the smell of ink slowly emitted by many books piled up together.

You can't go wrong, it's that taste.

Yan Ji stared at the car going away, his expression gradually grim.And the chaotic memory fragments in her mind were pieced together one by one, revealing doubts that she hadn't noticed before:

On the night of the incident, the taxi driver who carried Yandeng was the same person as the tenant at the teacher's house!

The coincidence is more than that.

The concrete path where the teacher was injured was between the corn fields, so remote that even if the driver of the black car made a detour, he would not go there.Could it be that the voice calling for help is real?Did I hear them?

No, no, what did the bald driver say?

"Why are you stuck here!"

If he had heard the call for help, he would not have said these words out of emotion and reason.Instead, say something like—"What's wrong?" "What's going on?" "Would you like help?"

I asked Yan Deng to help press the teacher's wound, and then drove them to the hospital. I took his passenger away, but the bald driver didn't respond at all?

When I saw him again, it was in Century Community, at the address on the electricity bill card in the teacher's wallet.

How can it be so coincidental?

Is it...

In the hospital, when the toll office asked for documents, it was Yan Deng who handed me the teacher's wallet.In other words, she saw the wallet in the teacher's pocket in the car before, and she left the hospital one step earlier than me.

After she left the hospital, she probably met the driver and went to the teacher's house together.

How could the teacher's friend do such a thing?What does she want from the teacher?Is she stalking me?Otherwise, how could we meet again in Guanqiao Village?Why did the driver of Youtang in Guanqiao Village suddenly leave?To ride in my car?What is her purpose in approaching me?

Zhao Xiaobing saw that Yan Ji's face was both startled and angry, and quickly called out, "Yan Ji?"

Yan Ji's complexion was extremely bad, his cheeks were tense, he raised his hand to stop Zhao Xiaobing from speaking, and asked in a deep voice, "Can you lend me your phone?"

Zhao Xiaobing quickly took out his mobile phone: "Oh, here it is."

Yan Ji took the phone and took out the business card that should be photographed from his pocket.

On the other end of the phone, Ying Zhao said lazily with a smile, "Didn't sleep? Did you think of some important clue?"

Yan Ji motioned to Zhao Xiaobing, and walked to the side by himself.When I looked up, I saw two black cars approaching from far to near. It was the concierge car of Youtang Hotel that took her and Yan Deng to Guanqiao Village. It was cold inside.

Yan Ji slightly narrowed his eyes and frowned.

Yan Deng was indeed following him.

The concierge car stopped ten meters away. It was still the young man in his 20s, wearing white gloves and a suit, with an enamel badge pinned to his chest.At 36 degrees at noon, I was not afraid of heat stroke, so I trotted to Yan Ji and opened the parasol.

Yan Ji hesitated for a moment, reached out to take the sun umbrella, the young man turned his head and walked away, looking very cheerful from the back.

"Yan Ji?" The other end of the phone called Ying Zhao tentatively.

"Hello, director, I have a situation..." Yan Ji pressed down the sun umbrella to cover his face, "That's right, when I sent the teacher to the hospital, she was carrying a coin purse. The purse is now in the Criminal Police Brigade, can you ask how many people's fingerprints are on it?"

"I don't care about the Criminal Police Brigade." Ying Zhao said with a smile, and spoke again a few seconds later, "I'll try."

"it is good."

After a few minutes, Ying Zhao called: "Do you want to ask about the wallet, or something else?"

Yan Ji's throat moved: "... Electricity card."

Ying Zhao frowned, and secretly wrote down this clue: "You and Zhang Gonghe."

Yan Ji was taken aback, feeling that the sun umbrella in his hand was not that heavy for no reason: "Director, have you asked Yan Deng why she went to Guanqiao Village yesterday?"

Ying Zhao picked up the coffee cup: "It seems that I can get a lot of clues from you. She said that she forgot her handbag in the taxi, and that person was not the pick-up driver arranged by her housekeeper, so she wanted to check the license plate at the police station."

The big stone that was pressing on Yan Ji's heart suddenly disappeared, and he felt relaxed all over his body.With a smile on the corner of her mouth, she held a sun umbrella and walked forward on the curb: "Director Ying, on the night of the incident, I looked for it according to the address on the electricity bill card, and the driver who opened the door was the bald driver, about 30 years old. He said it was the house he had rented for a few months, and I smelled it when I was talking to him. I didn’t suspect it at the time, but now I think it’s the smell of ink that I smelled at my teacher’s house when I was a child. My teacher is from the National Museum Researcher, there are a lot of books in the house. But I looked through the crack of the door, and the room was very empty."

There was a moment of silence on the other end of the phone, with an upbeat tone of interest: "It seems that things are more complicated than we imagined. Are you and your teacher relatives?"

Yan Ji explained: "No, I was seriously ill when I was a child, and I was hospitalized in the provincial capital hospital. I met a teacher when I visited the Provincial Expo. Later, my mother had something to do, and I stayed at her house for a while."

Ying Zhao thought more deeply: "Zhang Gongyu is a researcher of the National Museum, why is she here?"

Yan Ji hesitated for a moment: "I, I don't know. Because of some things, I haven't been in touch with the teacher for a while."

"Is it convenient to say it?" Ying Ying put pressure on her tone, "From the current situation, many of your teacher's behaviors are extremely abnormal. If you can fully understand her state, it will be extremely helpful in solving the case."

"It has nothing to do with the teacher, it's my problem." Yan Ji turned around and turned his back to the road, "At that time, I wanted to apply for the Academy of Fine Arts, and only the teacher supported me. She helped me find a training class to introduce the teacher, but in the end, I didn't go .”

Ying Zhao didn't expect this to be the reason. The training for the art test was expensive, and Yan Ji's refusal seemed to make sense. Through this incident, she also had some knowledge of the mysterious injured Zhang Gongyu.

After patiently explaining a few words to Yan Ji, Ying Zhao hung up the phone.

Yan Ji put away the sun umbrella and walked to the concierge car, the window slowly rolled down, revealing Yan Deng's pale face.Yan Ji felt guilty for a while, after all, he just called the police to expose others.After reasoning for a long time, it turned out to be a misunderstanding.

"Mr. Yan, thank you for your umbrella."

Yan Deng saw that she was smiling, and his complexion was even worse: "Get in the car."

Just as Yan Ji was about to refuse, he caught a glimpse of Zhao Xiaobing walking towards him, so he said, "Wait for me."

Zhao Xiaobing is interested in him, and Yan Ji knows it well recently, but fortunately, the two of them can't speak a few words during day shift and night shift.Since you don't intend to, then don't provoke them, and avoid them as much as you can.Yan Ji returned the phone to Zhao Xiaobing, turned around and got into Yan Deng's car.

The two sat in the back row, and the car started smoothly.

Yan Ji glanced at the driver, then turned his head and asked, "What can Boss Yan want from me?"

Yan Deng looked away from the book in his hand and looked her up and down: "You didn't go home." As he spoke, he moved his eyes back and looked at Zhao Xiaobing on the side of the road.

Yan Ji was taken aback, and looked down at the T-shirt on his body, it was stained with gray and mud and blood, but fortunately the dark color didn't make it dirty.Then look at Yan Deng's white shirt, clear skirt pleats, and black, shiny and smooth hair, so he can go directly to shoot commercials.Maybe he slept through it, his eyes were moist and bloodshot.If it weren't for the fact that his face was too pale, he could be said to be in good spirits.

Yan Ji straightened his back, trying to avoid touching the car seat as much as possible, and replied politely: "I haven't had time yet, what can Boss Yan want from me?"

Yan Deng withdrew his gaze, lowered his eyes and continued to read: "Building [-], Zhengguang New Village."

Yan Ji was stunned, this is her home address.
