A charming and dangerous character

There are a total of 23 genes commonly known on the 2 pairs of human chromosomes. Of course, this upper limit is mainly calculated based on protein coding. It is difficult to estimate the large number of other non-protein genes.

And on the basis of this huge number, there are countless genes related to appearance.

Looking at the four photos of young or older girls pasted on the whiteboard in front of him, Song Zhengrong couldn't help feeling the wonder of the Creator again.

The photos of the two young women are of course Amber (bo) in high school and her dead sister Amber (po)—although the facial features of the two sisters are not very similar, unlike identical twins. Almost no difference can be seen, but the arrangement and combination can still allow strangers to see the fact that there is a blood relationship between them at a glance;

The other two older women are Shi Xiang after working in Yetianchi, and Jiang Nanxi, who was disguised by Amber and married Qiu Chuyi abroad. It has to be said that Amber's camouflage skills are really superb.

Compared with the image data left by Amber at the customs after going abroad as Jiang Nanxi (that is, Shi Xiang's new identity) after "changing her face", the two people who had almost no similarities in the original photos have already changed at this time. It is no longer easy for people to distinguish from appearance, words and deeds, or signature and handwriting.

It can be felt that Amber has been deliberately imitating Shi Xiang, and judging from the results alone, she has done quite well.

——This is really a frightening and even terrifying opponent.

For some reason, this idea suddenly appeared in Song Zhengrong's mind.

She is like a dormant Israeli golden scorpion with an inconspicuous appearance. She is smart and patient. Her extraordinarily thin body and tail that is indistinguishable from the same kind make it easy to relax her vigilance, but when she sees the right time The moment the stinger is gently inserted into your body, a powerful mixture of chlorotoxin (neurotoxin) and cardiotoxin will kill you within hours.

Song Zhengrong stared at Amber, who still had an innocent smile on her face in the photo in high school. I am afraid that at that time, no one could have imagined that this seemingly ordinary and well-behaved girl had a hidden gem in her body. A heart full of darkness and decay.

I really can't imagine what it would be like if I wanted to live under the same roof with such a person for a long time.

For some reason, Song Zhengrong let out a silent sigh.

After discovering the secret of the Amber sisters' backgrounds a few days ago, he had already arranged for his men to track down the true backgrounds of the two sisters.

Although this clue may not be the focus of "Eleventh Two", he always has a strong intuition that he must thoroughly investigate the matter—perhaps, the turning point of this bizarre case lies in the secret of the sisters. In the real life experience.

However, due to the long history and the fact that people in the past did not have much concept of keeping data properly, and the orphanage where the two Amber sisters were abandoned has also closed down, so the latest clue that the police can find is that the two sisters were They were sent to an orphanage by their mother.

According to the memory of a former employee of the orphanage, it was a very beautiful woman, so that he could still recall seven or eight points of that woman's appearance after so many years.

The police immediately arranged for a special portrait artist to draw the general appearance of Amber's mother according to the employee's description.And after mastering this clue, it will be easier to trace, after all, people who are particularly outstanding in one aspect must also be impressive in other places.

And besides this clue from the Ambers, Song Zhengrong also gained a lot yesterday on the "Xunle" cruise ship.

It can even be said that his trip to the cruise ship has been fruitful.

As a key eyewitness who reported to the police in the "Nov. Whether she is voluntary or forced, the testimonies and proofs she gave to the police before will all be invalid.

And since Cheng Youting was rescued from the cruise ship by Song Zhengrong and the others, it took less than half a day for the S city police to find out the specific role of this female high school student in that underground organization.

Like many underage girls who voluntarily work in Yetian Pool, Cheng Youting is also one of those "compensated dating girls", and it is said that she seems to be a little boss.

From this point of view, Cheng Youting's appearance near Yuying Middle School on November [-]nd must have followed the orders and arrangements of the organization.Then whether she disclosed to the police the sight of Qiu Chuyi and the motives behind it at the behest of others remains to be further investigated and investigated.

Because an extremely rare blizzard fell in City S last night, the traffic in the city center and surrounding towns was almost paralyzed. Although Song Zhengrong was very lucky to rush back to the police station yesterday and was not affected by the snowfall, but today he If you think about checking Cheng Youting's situation in the past, it will be more troublesome.

So thinking of this, Song Zhengrong took out his mobile phone from his pocket, but due to the haste he left yesterday, he actually forgot to leave the phone number of Cheng Youting's colleague at the police station over there on his behalf. The hospital called.

The nurse on the other end of the phone was quickly connected. After Song Zhengrong took the initiative to identify himself, the nurse sent another colleague to Cheng Youting's ward quickly.

Not long after, Song Zhengrong felt that his cell phone rang again. When he saw that the caller ID on it was "Director Song", he ignored it and continued to listen to the other side of the hospital saying: "Yesterday you sent over The girl's vital signs are stable now, but it's possible that she was still in a deep sleep because she was frightened before. However, if you have any questions to ask her, we can also wake her up... "

"No," Song Zhengrong thought for a while, then politely refused: "No need for now. I'll wait until she wakes up, thank you."

In fact, Song Zhengrong has been handling cases for so many years, and he can guess without thinking that he will definitely not be able to ask any more crucial information from Cheng Youting's mouth-after all, she is just a small role in that huge organization, and I am afraid that even the boss behind the scenes is not sure. I don't know, it would be difficult to solve the case through her.

But in the end, he emphasized with the hospital: "The former colleague from the police station should have been there all the time, right? Please help me keep an eye on her, and don't let her have any accidents. Once the matter on my side is resolved, I will rush to her immediately." In the past, before that, I will count on you!"

After putting down the phone, Song Zhengrong saw the text message from "Director Song" on the phone screen: "The call to you just now didn't work, are you still busy? Remember to go home for dinner tonight."

Obviously, Song Zhengrong belongs to a more career-oriented personality.

So after skimming through his father's text messages, he puts them behind him and returns to his endless work.

After staying at the desk for too long, Song Zhengrong couldn't help but feel a little tired. Just when he wanted to stretch and take a rest, he realized that the sky outside the window was already dark.

Just as he got up and turned on the overhead light switch in the office, and the room was instantly lit up, someone knocked on the door from outside.

Then, one of his men came in from the corridor outside.

The man walked hurriedly, and his face was even more serious and nervous. Song Zhengrong seemed to have noticed something, and asked hastily, "Did you find any new clues?"

Sure enough, the man nodded affirmatively, and then reported to Song Zhengrong in a somewhat anxious tone: "Yes, Team Song! I just found out the biological father of the Amber sisters!"

Song Zhengrong didn't know why, as if he had a premonition of something, and his heart had never been so tense as it is now.

And the subsequent development of the situation is indeed the same.

When the man said the name of Amber's father, Song Zhengrong's face darkened instantly like the night that had already fallen outside the window.

***

That night, when Song Guohua was finally waiting for his son at home, he looked up at the clock on the wall - the pointer was just aligned with the direction of the number "9".

"Hey, our Deputy Director Song is finally willing to come back from the office?" In fact, Song Guohua was not angry, but because he hadn't seen his son for many days, he said to him in a joking tone: "Your position is more important than my position as the director." Still busy."

Song Zhengrong's mother stopped him sharply: "Old Song! Don't talk nonsense!" But when she turned to face her son, she quickly turned into a smiling face.

"Zhengrong, don't listen to your dad. Maybe you're too busy to read text messages? Have you ever eaten outside? I'll go to the kitchen and make some hot food for you right now." As she was speaking, she planned to take the nanny Let's go to the kitchen together.

But Song Zhengrong quickly stopped his mother: "Mom, I've already eaten outside, and I'm not hungry yet." Before his mother could persuade him again, he turned around and said to his father who was sitting on the sofa : "Dad, I have something to tell you, can you go to the study with me?"

Song's father and Song's mother looked at each other in surprise after hearing the words. No one could guess what happened to their son today, why he suddenly spoke to them in such a serious tone.

When Song Zhengrong and his father entered the study room, the curtains on the balcony had been drawn. Although the moonlight was also blocked by the thick fabric, and the atmosphere in the room was a bit weird and dull, there was absolutely no way to see what was going on inside from the outside.

Song Zhengrong ignored his father's strange gaze, but spread out the materials he had prepared a long time ago and placed them on the table in front of them.

"What are you doing?" Song Guohua looked at the brown kraft paper bag laid flat in front of him—this is the bag specially used by the police to hold case materials—he still hasn't understood the meaning of his son calling him into the study .

But Song Zhengrong saw the doubts on his father's face clearly, and couldn't help but compare him who was about to retire honorably with Qiu Chuyi's father who was still lying on the hospital bed in his mind.

"Here is all the relevant information about the Qiujian case seven years ago." Song Zhengrong took a deep breath, forced down the contrasting picture in his mind, then lowered his head, and said without any emotion : "About seven years ago, the police in City D immediately dispatched police officers to the scene of the crime after receiving a report from the victim, but there was a car accident on the road..."

"Wait!" Song Guohua abruptly interrupted Song Zhengrong's statement. Looking at his son's serious and resolute profile, he vaguely guessed something in his heart, and suddenly became angry: "Didn't the case seven years ago have already been resolved?" Is the case closed? Why are you bringing it up to me now?"

Song Zhengrong quickly found the page he needed from the materials on the table, put it in front of his father, and said, "Because I discovered a doubtful point in this case recently——"

Since various modern surveying techniques had not been developed seven years ago, the police had only conducted a simple human identification of the car accident that year—but what Song Guohua was facing now was a page of assumptions about the scene of the car accident. Report.

"I don't understand these technical things, so some time ago, I specially invited experts in this field to restore the scene and measure the data at the scene of the car accident that happened in the police force." He paused and asked, "You want to know, the experts finally What was the result?"

However, Song Zhengrong's voice became colder as he continued to speak: "Experts say that the situation at that intersection is very special, and there is no possibility of accidental car accidents there at all—that is, the car accident that the police force encountered back then. It can only be man-made."

Song Guohua, who was standing next to his son, listened with trepidation, while his forehead also tensed uncontrollably and even jumped up "bang bang" at last.When he heard that Song Zhengrong had specially invited experts to take measurements there, he finally couldn't hold back his temper and burst out all his anger.

"You think your wings will be stiff now that you're grown up, don't you? You actually brought the materials home—to question me?" Song Guohua walked to the door and locked the door of the study with a snap, saving him a while. After hearing this, his wife came in again to intercede for Song Zhengrong.

Compared with Song Zhengrong, who looked at his father coldly, Song Guohua, who is very emotional now, seems to have been touched by his son somewhere that cannot be said, and his whole body has become a dangerous volcano that is active.

He pointed at Song Zhengrong's nose and began to scold, "Whose face do you think you have been relying on for all these years of smooth sailing and prosperity?"

"Huh? Deputy Director Song, Deputy Director Song? You can achieve this position at such a young age, how many people in the province do you think have been favored by 'luck' like you?" Song Guohua said, He also sneered: "It's really against you, have you already forgotten that you still have my last name on your head?!"

These words naturally silenced Song Zhengrong.

But after a while, he still took out another letter-like document from those materials, continued to display it in front of his father, and calmly replied: "If I forget my surname is Song, then this letter will not appear here gone."

Song Guohua also began to calm down after losing his temper with his son.But when he saw the content of the letter sent by the central government, although he was prepared, he couldn't help but take a deep breath, and although his tone of speech to Song Zhengrong was still not good, it began to ease.

"So what do you mean by bringing these materials and this letter home? What do you want to express to me?" Song Guohua asked back: "Do you think I did what it said?"

Of course, Song Zhengrong didn't want to make the relationship too tense with his father. Hearing what his father said, he also sighed silently, and explained: "Only you know best whether you have done such a thing... and I am not here today as you think, I came to ask you for your punishment."

"Dad—" He suddenly raised his head and looked directly at his father, who was no longer as tall as he was when he was a child, but was always as tall in his eyes.

Song Zhengrong's voice suddenly became deep, and even his eyes were full of sincerity: "I hope you can tell me the truth, back then... was it you who did the Uncle Qiu's case? You must be more serious than me. Clearly, Uncle Qiu cannot be that kind of person..."

The picture of Qiu Jian lying in the ward and his high-spirited appearance came to Song Zhengrong's mind again. He also witnessed the development of Uncle Qiu from the very beginning to the present haggard image.

During this long period of time, not only did time not dilute the guilt in Song Zhengrong's heart, but the subsequent impact of a series of events on him was like a domino that was overturned, all of which were moving towards an irreversible The direction continues to develop.

The current Song Zhengrong seems to have immersed himself in darkness, and his words also revealed his disappointment with his past self: "You should also be able to guess the reason why I have not been interviewed by the media for so many years. It was because of the case of Uncle Qiu back then. It had such an impact on me...to the point that every time I appear on the scene now, I can't help but think—whether my action this time was also punished by Arranged by others? If I do this, will it cause irreparable harm to others?"

"And back then, was I really doing the right thing?"

It was also the first time Song Zhengrong had expressed his remorse for the incident in front of his father in so many years: "If I hadn't been the first to find out, if your phone call was later, if the police force in D City It's normal to call the police... how good would it be?"

Hearing the true heart that his son rarely showed to him, Song Guohua's rage just now was like the cold weather outside the window, and all the dissatisfaction and resentment that had arisen were instantly cooled down.

"I know...how could I not be clear about the harm that incident caused to you?"

As a father, he didn't know that his son had been trapped in deep guilt and couldn't extricate himself.

Nearly seven years had passed, and it was the first time that Song Guohua actively recalled the specific situation in front of Song Zhengrong: "But I really didn't know about what happened back then before I called you again."

That year, Song Guohua had just been promoted and was transferred to the S City Bureau.However, since his position at that time was a fat vacancy, there was an endless stream of people who wanted to associate with him. Therefore, compared with the situation when he worked in the D City Branch Bureau, Song Guohua at that time can be said to have truly entered into the flourishing development of his career. of the prime of life.

Once a person's social circle is widened and he can get more useful information, it will be easier for him to go on his official career.And Song Guohua was in such a situation, one day he suddenly received a message from an informant who did not belong to his subordinates but had a brief encounter with him.

Although the other party could not tell the true identity of the prisoner, to Song Guohua at the time, no matter who that person was, he was just a bad guy who committed a crime. No matter which policeman encountered this incident, he believed that they would all agree with him Make the same choice to bring him to justice—and, what could be more important than allowing your son to take this opportunity to advance to another level?

So after he repeatedly confirmed that the source of the news was reliable, he hastily revealed the news to his son who just happened to return to his hometown in D City.

Of course, the specific content of this news and its final results are too clear to the Song family and his son today.

After describing all the process that happened that year to his son clearly, Song Guohua's attitude finally softened: "The real situation at that time was like this, but I was also blinded by interests and the time was very tight, so I thought this It's a chance God gave you, the decision is a bit hasty and indeed lacks more careful consideration..."

He sighed: "Anyway, it is undeniable that I did play a certain role in this incident. But no matter whether you hate me or blame me now, the situation has become like this, and I also regret it. The harm done to the family..."

Song Zhengrong sorted out his father's description in his mind before slowly opening his mouth and said: "Since you said that you had no involvement in Uncle Qiu's case and were deceived by others, then I believe you." Then he asked again: " But what about you towards Qiu Chuyi? If you say that you have no hostility towards him, then I overheard the embassy mentioning to me that his passport was secretly withheld as if it was at your behest. What's going on?"

Hearing his father's inconsistency and contradictory statements, he finally asked his puzzlement: "Actually, you also know that I am in charge of the '[-]. The inside story is obviously related to the matter of Uncle Qiu back then, and it is very likely that Qiu Chuyi was deliberately framed. If you really never participated in the case of Uncle Qiu, then your hostility towards Qiu Chuyi Where did it come from?"

Obviously, Song Guohua didn't expect his son to know what he entrusted Zhang Bureau to do.

Although he knew that his true actions conflicted with what he had just said to Song Zhengrong (he also regretted it), after all, he had been in the officialdom for a long time, and it was not the first time Song Guohua had encountered such embarrassment. situation.

However, he finally sighed, and told his son all the truth in his heart: "Oh... I have some opinions on Qiu Chuyi, but it's not what you think. Your mother and I only have You son, if we don’t treat you well, can we still treat others well? Over the years, which one of the things I have done is not for you? "

"I was worried that if he became more developed one day in the future, it might be unfavorable to you, so I asked someone to confiscate his passport...but all I did to him was to stop his passport, hoping to use this as a blow It's just his career, as for other things like deliberately slandering him, I have never done anything!"

Song Zhengrong saw the look on his father's face and knew that he hadn't lied to him.

But if it wasn't for his father, then these things against Qiu Chuyi can only be done by the man behind the scenes who framed Uncle Qiu back then.

That being the case, Song Zhengrong began to make bold inferences based on the existing clues:

Assuming that Amber (bo), who was a "compensated dating girl", was also Qiu Jian who was framed by this black finger behind the scenes, and then she somehow went abroad as Jiang Nanxi after she finished, and even went abroad with Qiu Chu who also came out to seek refuge Yi accidentally got married, and the two later had a son (Song Zhengrong still doesn't know Qiu Chuchu's real identity);

And after that, when Qiu Chuyi and the others returned to China, Jiang Nanxi or Amber was likely to be recognized by the black hand behind the scenes, so they were killed brutally, and it could only be that the black hand behind the scenes wanted to include the killing All charges, including Jiang Nanxi, were put on Qiu Chuyi;

Because once this is done successfully, the black hand behind the scenes will be able to do it once and for all. Even if Qiu Chuyi seeks justice for himself or his father, no one will believe his words.After all, the most important witness in the Qiu Jian case was dead, and no one can prove Qiu Jian's innocence...

Thinking of this, all the key points of the basic case are concentrated on Amber and the mysterious man behind the scenes.

But now that Amber dies, the only one who can solve all the mysteries is the man behind the scenes—and if there is no accident, this man behind the scene is very likely to have a close relationship with the underground criminal group that operates the underage compensated dating business. Inseparable connection.

For some reason, Song Zhengrong suddenly thought of the latest clue about Amber's biological father that he heard in the office tonight.

He turned his eyes to his father again, and his heart was full of caution and caution.

Then Song Zhengrong tentatively asked his father:

"I don't know if you've heard, or heard someone else mention the name 'Amber'?"
