Fire to the Abyss

In the early morning of the next day, He Rong went out to work for the first time in her career, and picked up the disheveled leader from a mountain villa.

In fact, it was Yang Ming who Lu Yuan notified, but considering the twists and turns of the mountain road in front of his house, he added an extra sentence, "It's all a mountain road, be careful when driving." Yang Ming turned on the navigation and was stunned by the spiraling route. Yes, the old driver He Rong was urgently called.When He Rong heard that it was a "secret mission", she didn't even have time to take care of her hair, so she put on some clothes and went out.

Both He Rong and Yang Ming didn't bother to take a sip of water. They drove through nine bends and eighteen bends, and finally rescued the leader successfully. Sealed the password: "Whoever dares to say a word about this matter today, I will let him eat mustard chocolate for a month."

The presence of the lesbians awakened Xia Yan's little remaining shame. He felt that it was not appropriate to keep in a "vacuum" state, so he went upstairs to Lu Yuan's room to find a shirt and put it on.

He Rong saw that Xia Yan went upstairs skillfully as if she was at her own home, changed into a suit of suitable size and then came down, she couldn't help asking: "Captain Xia, whose home is this?"

Before Xia Yan could speak, Yang Ming rushed to answer: "He's a friend of Team Xia, Brother Lu, he's a gentle and handsome guy."

Xia Yan rolled his eyes at Yang Ming. He didn't know how Yang Ming could tell that he was gentle. "Yang Ming, you should go to the ophthalmology department, and the brain department should also take a look."

He Rong looked at the bloody glass shards on the ground and the bullet holes on the wall, and recalled Xia Yan's tragic situation when he came in, handcuffed behind his back and wrapped in a blanket, and said, "Captain Xia, what happened to you and this friend?" What's the matter? It looks intense..."

Xia Yan gritted his teeth and said, "If I see this bastard again, I'll blow my head off!"

It could be seen that Team Xia was in a state of full firepower. Yang Ming didn't dare to confront him, but immediately relayed his threat to Lu Yuan after getting in the car: "Brother Lu, Team Xia said that next time I see you, I will You blow your head off, you should not appear in front of him recently."

After reading the news, Lu Yuan smiled very lightly, and with this shallow smile, he said to the man tied to the opposite chair: "I am in a good mood now, if you can explain quickly, I will be very happy." grateful."

"Grateful? Forget it," the man also smiled, "It seems that you have already been to the dock warehouse, which I specially prepared for the mouse. I didn't expect the famous Seven to be that mouse. Disrespect and disrespect——no Knowing that those who have been killed by you heard about it, how will they fight back?"

"Ah—" Before Lu Yuan could answer, the man's tone rose, showing a rather exaggerated surprise, "Or, the counterattack has already started, so you are so eager to find me, if this is the case, I advise you Rather than spending time with me here, it’s better to hurry up and escape, after all, life is more important than anything else, don’t you think?”

Lu Yuan ignored the man's contemptuous eyes, and smiled noncommittally: "It seems that you still don't know me well, and I don't think there is anything wrong with dying. It would be even better if I could drag you to die together."

"Oh, is it?" The man hummed a syllable from his nose. Even though he was tied to the chair, he tried his best to straighten his back, stretch his neck, and maintain the posture of squinting at people: "That's not a coincidence , I have always cherished my life, if you want to die, you should go on your own way. I know you will not kill me, so the trick of intimidating and threatening such a child can be avoided."

"Yeah, I really won't kill you," Lu Yuan went around behind the man, traced his finger along the scar on his neck, and whispered in his ear, "Liu Changming."

The man tied to the chair is Nine, Liu Changming. Zero's action of killing three birds with one stone generally achieved the expected goal, except for one thing - Nine was intercepted by Lu Yuan halfway and failed to reach Zero's hands.

Under the urging of the three words "Liu Changming", obvious chemical changes occurred on Nine's body. His pupils shrank suddenly, the blood on his face faded away in an instant, and his whole body was as stiff as if he had just been electrocuted: "You, you how……"

"How do I know?" Lu Yuan said calmly, "Although you don't know me, I do know something about you. I heard that the scar on your neck was scraped out by your biological mother with a clothes hanger. Is it this hanger—"

Lu Yuan snapped his fingers behind him, and a girl in a long cotton skirt pushed the door and walked in. She was holding an iron clothes hanger in her hand. An ominous sheen.The girl looked at Nine expressionlessly, and approached him slowly and steadily, her high heels making a rhythmic "da da" sound on the floor.

Similar hairstyle, similar hanger, similar dress, for a moment, the girl with cold eyes in front of him subtly overlapped with the hideous woman in memory, Nine's legs trembled uncontrollably, he sealed it The deepest fear of decades was cut open by a sharp hanger hook, and the shell peeled off along the scratches, revealing a little boy curled up inside and holding his head shaking constantly.

It was sunny outside the window that day, and the woman locked him in a narrow room as usual, saying that she wanted to play "hide and seek" with him.

"I'll come to you when I count to ten, one, two, three..." The boy panicked amidst the woman's unhurried counting, and hid in the room farthest from her, which happened to have a big wardrobe Available for hiding, the boy got into the closet, huddled behind a pile of clothes, covered his ears and eyes, like an ostrich buried its head in the sand, implying that as long as he could not hear or see, he was not in any danger.

"...Nine, ten, mom is here to find you..." Then, the sound of high heels got closer.It's not far from the living room to the bedroom, but the woman seems to be enjoying the boy's fear, walking slowly step by step.The boy could only hold his breath and cover his ears tighter and tighter, but no matter how hard he tried, the footsteps seemed to be alive, and penetrated into his ears through the gaps in his fingers, and then the wardrobe door was pulled open.

"Ah, I found you." The boy's terrified expression greatly pleased the woman. With a ferocious smile on her face, she deliberately said in a weird tone, "If you are found, you will be punished."

After finishing speaking, while laughing wildly, he picked up the hanger and slapped the boy frantically.The boy had nowhere to escape, so he could only hug his knees tightly, and the woman aimed the sharp hook at the boy's delicate neck...

"Don't come here, don't come here..." Nine shook the chair desperately, the chain used to fix the bottom of the chair was rattled by him, but the base was not loose at all, "Stop her! Stop! I said, All say..."

"Okay." Lu Yuan waved his hand, and the girl nodded to him and went out.Lu Yuan sat on the table with his arms folded, and tapped his toes rhythmically on the ground, waiting for Nine to catch his breath very intimately.

It took a long time for Nine to calm down from the lingering fear, and said weakly: "The puzzle piece is no longer in my hands—" Before he finished speaking, a bullet shot in from the window, passing through precisely his temple.

When Xia Yan arrived at the gate of the detachment, Liang Song just came back. He put a piece of gauze on his face, and Xia Yan could feel that the air pressure around Liang Song was gradually decreasing with him as the center.

"A group of grandchildren dared to ambush the police. They used the Glock 17. The puppeteer's hand may have reached to the ammunition."

Xia Yanlai had already heard about Liang Song's attack on the pier on the way, so he handed him the milk that Yang Ming paid tribute to: "Are you all right? What's going on?"

"I'm fine, just a little bruise. A few brothers suffered minor injuries and have already been sent to the hospital. More than half of those bastards died, and the rest were brought back," Liang Song pointed to the escort car behind him. , "I've never heard of such an exciting experience working in the criminal investigation detachment. I didn't know that I thought this was the Department of Homeland Security."

Xia Yan smiled wryly: "The reckless frontal counterattack shows that they have hit their sore spot." It's just that I don't know who the one who poked the sore spot is Chengzhou Public Security or Lu Yuan?

"By the way," Liang Song drank a can of milk out of the attitude of spirits, raised his head and drank it dry, and threw the empty can into the trash can ten meters away, then took out his mobile phone, called up a photo, and handed it to Xia Yan, "There is nothing in that warehouse. After adjusting the monitoring, I found that this woman went there two days ago, but she was disguised and couldn't get a clear picture of her face."

Xia Yan zoomed in on the picture. The woman was dressed in black, holding a briefcase on her chest, wearing a hat and big sunglasses.The camera in the warehouse is high-definition, and can clearly see the woman's too bright red lips. Xia Yan swipe up and down the photo, and freeze the frame on the woman's right hand holding the bag.There is a ring on the little finger of her right hand, the shape is quite familiar, and it is exactly the same as the one on the hand of the female assistant that Lu Yuan often carries around - it seems that the person who pokes the sore spot is Lu Yuan.

When Xia Yan entered the detachment yard, he took a second look at the duty room, couldn't help knocking on the window and asked, "Old Sun, why are you all these days? Where's Lao Zhao?"

The two uncles in the duty room took turns to change shifts. Lao Zhao's house was nearby, and he was usually on duty frequently. This was the first time he hadn't seen anyone for several days.

Lao Sun scratched his head, and said helplessly, "Old Zhao said that he has asked for leave for something at home. I have been the one for these two weeks. Hey, I don't know what is going on at home. I can't even accompany you on such a long leave. I have a grandson..." The grandson of the old grandson's family is still young, and he was supposed to enjoy family happiness at home, but he was forced to work twice as much, so he was naturally a little dissatisfied.

Lao Zhao is a bachelor, rarely asks for leave, and is often ridiculed for being more dedicated than a police dog.Xia Yan took out a cigarette and handed it to Lao Sun, and patted him on the shoulder, "Maybe there is something urgent, please bear with me."

When Xia Yan arrived at the office, he found Xia Lin swaggeringly lying on his back in his luxurious office chair, with a newspaper covering his face - after the previous deciphering incident, Xia Lin's talent was unanimously recognized by all experts, Han Changsheng specially approved Xia Lin to participate in the work of the task force, of course, it was the kind of work that was not allowed to go out.From then on, Xia Lin lived a life of being a free labor force in the detachment under the escort of his guardian. Anyway, Xia Yan could only sit in the office for 3 minutes, so he simply took his brother's desk as his own.

Xia Yan pretended to knock on the door: "Ahem, it's dawn."

Xia Lin straightened up reflexively after hearing the movement, and picked up the newspaper from his face, "Captain Xia, you are late."

Xia Yan didn't bother to argue, seeing that his face was clear and bright, he didn't seem to be taking a nap, so he asked casually, "What? What are you thinking about?"

When Xia Lin was asked, there was no buffer at all, and a long speech came out: "I was thinking, why did Zero use Nine to replace Li Xueen's lipstick in the Chengda poisoning case, Nine is a fingerprint and DNA information A wanted criminal who is all on the record, using him will be very risky. Besides, since Nine finishes changing the lipstick, the crime has already been arranged, and Zero does not need to appear in the coffee shop. If it is me , I will definitely find a place that can be photographed as an alibi, so that the police can't find me. But Zero not only went to the coffee shop that day, but also disappeared in the sight of several of his roommates. It took a while—so I was thinking, maybe he went to meet Nine on purpose that day, and this brief meeting has more significance than an alibi..."

In a room with poor lighting, after listening to Xia Lin's analysis, Lu Yuan took off his earphones, got up and threw the knife in his hand towards the wall with a row of puppets hanging on the opposite side. There was a puppet doll with "Zero" in its chest, and then, the corner of his mouth raised a strange arc: "I found the last piece of the puzzle."
