Celestial Ghost Master

The number of people going to the bar is finally decided on: Situ, Yin Sheng and Yue Zhang.

Situ originally didn't want to go to Le Zhang, so that he would have the opportunity to be alone with Yin Sheng, but Le Zhang wanted to join in the fun, and firmly believed that since he had already participated, he was considered a temporary assistant, so it was necessary to participate in the progress of the whole case the process of.

But anyone could tell that he just thought it was fun.

As night fell and the lights came on, it was still the fifteenth day of the Lunar New Year, and there was a warm and harmonious atmosphere everywhere in the streets.

Some shopping malls have already started their new year's business, while some private companies are still on vacation leisurely.

There are very few cars on the road. Compared with the usual busy traffic, the travel rate of vehicles in the new year is actually very low.

Situ drove a private car that he seldom drives—a black modified Cruze. He was very interested in buying it back then, but it didn't take long for the police station to equip the criminal investigation team with special vehicles.

Situ's private car is kept in the parking garage, gathering dust all year round.

"The new car didn't even have a chance to run in..." Situ reversed the car in gear, and while adjusting the rearview mirror, Le Zhang was a little worried: "There won't be any problems halfway through the drive, right?"

Situ rolled his eyes at him from the rearview mirror, as if saying he had a crow's mouth.

The three of them walked slowly all the way to the intersection of the red light district, found a place to put the car first, and then walked over. The hair salon that was closed when they saw the police during the day was also open at this time, and a few fashionable women sat Baking the little sun at the door of the store and chatting in a low voice.

Because several people met during the day, Le Zhang walked in front as a cover, Yin Cheng lowered the brim of his hat behind, and Situ turned up the collar of his windbreaker to completely cover most of his face.

When the women at the door saw the movement for the first time, they were stunned for a while, and then they all smiled ambiguously and gave the movement a wave.

Le Zhang turned a blind eye, tried his best to walk around a few people with a straight face, and headed for the bar behind.

The women pursed their lips in boredom. Seeing the two big men following the movement, they knew that this group was either gamblers or drinking buddies... But this was the first time I saw such a good-looking gambler.

Walking to the door of the first tavern, Yue Zhang opened the door and said, "Shall we drink? Isn't it a bit strange not to drink in a tavern?"

Situ originally thought that drinking would affect the handling of the case, but thinking that it would be more suspicious to come here without drinking, he nodded in agreement.

"Drink less."

"Please." Le Zhang blurted out, and rushed in before Situ had time to refuse.

Yin Sheng followed closely into the door, the choking smell made him frown sharply.

Alcohol, tobacco, even the stink of men's sweat.

Mixed together to form a weird and depressing atmosphere, there is no difference between the lights inside and the lights off, and it is so dark that it is almost impossible to see the other person's face clearly, only the circle of purple lights near the bar is much more eye-catching. But the reflection on the bartender's face looked mysterious and unpredictable.

Yue Zhang had already found a seat at the bar to sit, while pulling out a cigarette, holding it in his mouth and not lighting it: "Have a drink that won't make you drunk!"

The bartender in a V-neck sweater glanced at him, reached out and took out a glass from under the bar, chose a kind of white wine, poured half a glass and handed it over.

"First time? I'll take this glass." The man's voice was smiling, and when Le Zhang took the wine glass, the man's index finger still scratched the back of Le Zhang's hand lightly.

Le Zhang felt goose bumps on his body, and gave him a blank look: "Thanks."

As he spoke, he picked it up to drink, but one hand blocked his mouth first.

"Okay, I'll invite you, how can someone else invite you?" Situ and Yin Sheng stood behind Le Zhang, Situ withdrew his hand, glanced at the bartender, and took the cup from Le Zhang's hand and put it aside.

"Three cups of punch, the hot one is the best." Situ pulled out a bar stool and sat on it. Yin Sheng sat next to him without making a sound, but turned his head to look at the environment in the bar.

The dim light made it difficult to see, and Yin Sheng felt that the atmosphere here made him feel uncomfortable. He almost wanted to leave Situ and Le Zhang here, and left first.

Situ seemed to notice it, and when the bartender brought a cocktail, he handed Yin Sheng a glass.

"Drink this comfortably, it has lemon in it."

Yin Sheng glanced at him, took a sip, and it was slightly tropical with the strong aroma of fruit and a little sour taste of lemon.

Refreshing and not greasy, the greasy feeling in my heart dissipated a lot immediately.

Yue Zhang picked up another cup, and while drinking, covered his mouth with the rim of the cup and asked Situ.

"Why don't you let him buy me a drink?"

"If you want to wake up tomorrow morning and find that you have lost your virginity...I won't stop you." Situ raised his eyebrows, picked up his own cup and took a sip.

Le Zhang was stunned for a moment, then his face darkened: "Did he take medicine?!"

"He's interested in you, it's so obvious...didn't you see it?" Situ laughed, and glanced at the bartender who had been aiming this way from the corner of his eye.

"I said it was so enthusiastic!" Le Zhang recalled the man's expression just now, the back of his hand seemed to itch, goose bumps appeared again, and he shook his head violently: "I don't like men!"

"If you drank it just now, it means you like it." Situ smashed his mouth, and suddenly thought of something, he bumped his elbow against the movement: "Go and play the bartender's words."

Le Zhang broke out in cold sweat: "Are you sending sheep to the tiger's mouth?"

"Just you returning the sheep?" Situ mocked, "You can come back safe and sound after being thrown into the pack of wolves. I'm optimistic about you."

As he spoke, he patted Yue Zhang's shoulder and pushed him out.

Yue Zhang was so regretful at this time that he wanted to mess around, but he couldn't get off the horse, so he forced a smile to strike up a conversation with the bartender.

Situ almost died of joy, he turned his head and grabbed Yin Sheng's shoulder.Seeing that Yin Sheng had finished drinking the wine in his glass, and was raising his head and blinking at himself, his heart suddenly felt itchy like a cat scratching.

"Delicious?" Situ raised his eyebrows: "Is there any more?"

"Forget it." Yin Sheng thought for a while, "Don't get drunk."

"This wine is not intoxicating." Situ smiled, and then got down to business, "The environment here is a bit bad, and it may not be easy to find someone."

"What's more, the number is still large, and the characteristics of the unknown suspects are not clear."

Yin Sheng also nodded: "I don't know if I can gain anything tonight."

After thinking about it, he asked again: "If Lu Feng's body is hidden in the north of the city, where it is a development area, what do you think it has to do with this place?"

"The distance from the north of the city to here is not too far, but it's not close either." Situ Zhuomao, "If you commit crimes and drink here for a long time...it should be someone who works here or lives nearby."

"According to the reactions of the women around me... I guess Lu Feng is not the only one missing. If he killed so many people without anyone finding out, this person must be very cautious."

"Then it won't be someone who lives nearby." Yin Sheng said, "If his character is very cautious, he will definitely bury the body where he lives."

"Sense of security?" Situ raised his eyebrows, "It makes sense, it's the people who work nearby."

Yin Sheng pondered for a while, then looked around: "If he often drinks here, then he must come home very late, but who would choose a place not close to home and not convenient for work and entertainment? This will affect Are you working the next day?"

"Or didn't go to work?" Situ felt as if he had grasped some clues, "but if he didn't go to work, there would be no reason why he must come here."

"There are bars like this all over the city, why must it be here?"

Yin Sheng: "So it really is working nearby."

Situ: "Then he must not be a white-collar worker during his working hours. The nine-to-five job is very stable, plus entertainment...he will not have the opportunity to come here. What he should do is a night shift worker...or a shift system .”

"The night shift workers nearby are bars, and there are Internet cafes and 24-hour convenience stores on the other street." Yin Sheng pondered, "You said... Could the 'water' mentioned by the music be related to the suspect's work and water? ?”

"It's possible!" Situ suddenly became vigilant, "Could it be the one in the bar..."

"I am back!"

Le Zhang wandered over with a wine glass in his hand, and smiled foolishly, "Master is quite charming, that man even told me his measurements."

"It's a pity... tsk tsk tsk..." Le Zhang shook his finger, "I don't like this, hiccup!"

Yin Sheng looked at him helplessly, "I've been there for less than 10 minutes, why are you drunk?"

"He drank too fast." Situ Ren smiled, "Probably because he wanted to finish the question in a hurry, but the other party kept filling him up, so he kept drinking."

Le Zhang covered his mouth and let out a "hiccup" again: "There should be no... hiccup... the person you are looking for."

"How to say?" Situ was curious, "What did you ask?"

"Those who have a bad temper, those who are strong, those who are burly... those who love to drink, and those who hang around all night." Yue Zhang counted with his fingers, and then smiled, "There are people who like to drink, and there are people who have a bad temper. , but not the strong and big men."

Le Zhang pointed to the back, "Most of them are pale, and have destroyed their kidneys long ago... hiccup...patients."

Situ nodded, drank the punch that had been slowly fainting in his hand, put the cup away, took out a few coins from his wallet, and patted them on the table—"Pay the bill!"

After speaking, he stood up, and went out with Yin Sheng holding the music.

As soon as the cold wind blew in the street, Yue Zhang sobered up a lot. Originally, the alcohol content of the fruit wine was very low, so he just drank it a little too much for a while.

"are you OK?"

Yin Cheng looked at him, and when he turned sideways, a big man came up behind him, Situ quickly pulled Yin Cheng's arm with his quick eyes, but even so, the big man bumped into Yin Sheng's shoulder.

Yin Cheng felt that the man's strength was so great that his whole body was brought forward and fell down.

"Feel sorry."

The man said coldly, then walked towards the street with his clothes in his pockets without looking back.
