sincerity of lies

The first-line operations were accompanied by the police's successful control of the smuggling ship, with preliminary results.

Tan Mingjiu and Wen Yangyang who caught up later, led the rest of the police officers, and drove all the smuggling suspects on the ship to the deck for guarding.

Ji Xun and Huo Ranyin also found time to search the entire ship with the rest of the police officers.

When walking inside together, Ji Xun first looked at Huo Ranyin's hand, the other's palm was slightly scratched: "Is it okay to jump off?"

"En." Huo Ranyin responded first, then turned his hands and feet, and said, "The tendons in the legs are a little tight, it's nothing serious."

"Which leg?" Ji Xun squatted down, tapped Huo Ranyin's left leg with his fingers, then tapped Huo Ranyin's right leg, and after noticing that the other's left leg trembled slightly, he said clearly, "Left leg. Go back and rub the medicinal wine for you."

"it is good."

While communicating briefly, the two did not delay their work. After a round of inspection inside the cabin, the two of them saw the engine room, living area, and kitchen. There was nothing unusual about these places. Some smuggled items were found in the living area, but there were not many. The variety is also scattered, and it should be the private behavior of the crew.

Then they came to the cargo hold of the ship.

The cargo hold is empty, there is nothing there, only some sundries are piled in the corner, and the important things are outside, and they haven't been loaded in time yet.

"Is this the cargo hold?" Huo Ranyin glanced inside and asked the captain who was being escorted by the police.

The captain was a fairly fat middle-aged man, he laughed along with him, and Nuonuo said, "Yes, it's here."

"Is there any other cargo hold besides this one?"

"No more, Comrade Inspector, only here, just this one," the captain affirmed.

Ji Xun stepped forward.

In the innermost part of the rectangular warehouse, messy sundries were piled up. Leaving aside large and small cardboard boxes, there were also a few rolls of thick hemp rope and a lot of iron balls, packed in a large wooden frame.

Ji Xun kicked the iron ball in the frame: "What are these for?"

The captain was taken aback: "I don't know either."

Ji Xun turned around: "You don't know?"

The captain continued to smile: "Comrade police officer, it's just some sundries...the sundries come in and out, when they come up, when they go down, you see, I don't care, and I can't remember..."

Ji Xun watched and squatted down.

"What are you thinking?" Huo Ranyin asked.

"I was thinking..." Ji Xun held up an iron ball, "How many iron balls can sink a dead body into the sea?"

Everyone at the scene suddenly changed color.

"Wait," the sudden divergence of associations was so terrifying that the captain was so anxious that he spoke loudly, "We're not trading lives!"

Huo Ranyin waved his hand, and the rest of the police immediately took the captain away from the warehouse.

Then Huo Ranyin turned to Ji Xun, with a slight frown on his brows: "You..."

"You also thought of the same thing, right?" Ji Xun said, "That little detail that Xu Xinran told us."

of course.

That little detail, when Xu Xinran said it, caught the attention of the two of them.

"You want to say that some corpses were transported to this ship, and after the ship sailed for a certain distance, they were tied with iron balls and sank into the water?" Huo Ranyin said slowly.

"Think about it, it's an assembly line, isn't it? This smuggling ship is going out of the country. When it reaches the high seas, on a dark and windy night, it only takes 5 minutes to destroy the body without anyone noticing. "Ji Xun, "As for the preservation of the corpse, I saw it during the patrol just now. There is a cold storage in this ship, which is enough for storage."

Huo Ranyin was silent for a moment, then shook his head to point out the logical errors:

"No, according to what you said, the dead body is in the cold storage on the ship. How can the people on the shore smell the dead body on the ship? Besides, if Xu Xinran can smell it from such a distance, then where are the people on the ship going?" Sailing in such a harsh environment? They don't care about the strong smell at all?"

"Change your thinking." Ji Xun said, "The boats are not here to transport corpses, they are here to load corpses."

"You mean—"

"Nearby—with the casino as the center, near the vegetable market, there is another hidden warehouse within a short distance from front to back. There may be some important things hidden in the warehouse!" Ji Xun replied in a deep voice.

Huo Ranyin reported Ji Xun and his analysis to the leadership of the bureau, and soon, the leadership issued an order:

"One branch and two branches use vegetable markets and casinos as sources to quickly check the specific situation of every household in the village."

Clear instructions were issued to everyone at the scene, and soon, a large number of policemen walked around the streets, knocking on doors and asking questions.

There is scope and manpower, and in just 10 minutes, good news came from the walkie-talkie.

Yuan Yue led people to find a suspicious unmanned factory building.

"Got it." Huo Ranyin replied, and immediately rushed to the destination with Ji Xun.

The village is not big, and within a short distance, it can be reached within 3 minutes.

This is an old-fashioned factory building with yellow walls and mud tiles. It is three stories high. Already overgrown.Behind this workshop is the sea, facing the sea is a piece of flat land, as long as the ship stays here, the large open space is also convenient for loading and unloading.

The factory building is relatively remote, and the nearest neighbor is 50 meters away in a straight line, so any movement in the factory building will not be noticed.

When Ji Xun and Huo Ranyin arrived, the factory building had already drawn a yellow line along the wall, and there were police guards here.

I didn't see Yuan Yue, so he should be in the factory.

over there...

Ji Xun's eyes looked in through the weedy yard, and he saw the silver metal door open outwards, and the surging darkness poured out.

Huo Ranyin raised the cordon and walked in.

Ji Xun followed.

The luxuriant grass is like a child's naughty little hand, scratching a little skin on the ankle.

As Ji Xun was walking, he kicked a little light hidden in the grass. He lowered his head and took a closer look. It was an unsealed bread bag.

With such a delay, Ji Xun was a few steps behind Huo Ranyin.

When he lowered his head and passed through the door of the factory building, he felt that he had entered an extremely narrow pocket. The darkness was a kind of soft inner wall, oppressing from all sides.

But the feeling at this moment is more like a subconscious spiritual perception.

When Ji Xun calmed down and looked around, he immediately breathed a sigh of relief. There were no bad things in the factory building as he imagined. It was generally empty. Some tables and chairs looked very old, and they were all piled up in the corner. Entering the factory building The ceiling lamp in one of the large spaces was broken, and it was illuminated with lighting equipment brought by the police.

There are not many policemen here, and Yuan Yue and Huo Ranyin are not seen here.

they are...

Ji Xun turned his eyes away and looked further into the factory building.

They are further ahead.

Then Ji Xun noticed that when he entered the door, it was dark and gushing, but looking forward, it turned into light and teeth.

The light in front was very bright, directly occupying a small half of the floor of the entrance room.

It's just that I can't see the situation inside, there is still a half door blocking it.

He hesitated slightly.

It seemed that the blades of grass that had flowed across the yard just now were still clinging to his ankles, dragging him in the mud.

However, the truth ahead will not change because of his hesitation or retreat.

Ji Xun walked in.

Yuan Yue, Huo Ranyin, and others are all here.

The lights inside are all on, not only the LED lights on the ceiling, but also a huge movable turntable extending from the ceiling, surrounded by circles of small lights - medical shadowless lights.

Looking down along the shadowless lamp, you can see a circle of cloth towels surrounding an operating table.

The silver color of the cloth drape may be exposed between the operating table, and under the illumination of the operating lamp, a cross star shines out.

But this is not the most ostentatious part of this simple room, including the various large medical instruments around the operating table that Ji Xun is not familiar with, are not the most ostentatious things here.

The most ostentatious thing, which caught Ji Xun's eyes firmly after he came in, was the large medical cold storage placed against the wall.

The freezer is open.

There was no dead body wrapped in bags and tied with ropes that Ji Xun had envisioned, frozen like pork.

But no, it doesn't seem to be able to relieve people from tension.

Because through the gap where Huo Ranyin and Yuan Yue stood, Ji Xun could clearly see that the incandescent lamp built into the cold storage clearly and brightly illuminated the large amount of dried blood accumulated at the bottom of the cold storage and smeared on the inner wall.

There was also a shriveled yellow bag hanging open inside.

The yellow bag is a medical garbage bag, and it is very large, with a few pieces of hemp rope scattered beside it.It was also stained with blood, and the blood glued it into pieces.

Something wet and slimy like a boa constrictor's slough.

What used to happen here?

The unknown may be the scariest thing.
