Case File Compendium

Xie Qingcheng looked at the man in the mirror in the dressing room.

A thin and slightly gloomy face, wearing a uniform that he was familiar with since he was a child, with silver medals, cap badges, and a belt around his waist. His waist was strong, and under his long legs were a pair of black combat boots.

But as unreal as a dream.

He used to often smell the smell of his parents' clothes. The police uniform always smelled of sweat, the smell of being exposed to the sun, sometimes the smell of instant noodles from the office, and sometimes even the smell of blood.

The breath on the clothes should be scorching hot, but he was very cold.

Having been a medical scholar for so many years, the cold and clean smell of disinfectant seems to have soaked into his bone marrow. Even now that he is wearing a police uniform and smelling it closely, the collarbone and wrists of his collar are full of cold air. meaning.

Xie Qingcheng buttoned up his cuff buttons to cover the tattoo on his wrist that the police would never have, glanced in the mirror again, pressed down on the brim of his hat, pushed the door and went out.

"Not bad, it suits you very well." The commander looked him up and down when he came out, and nodded with satisfaction, "Come with me to meet your partner."

Xie Qing entered the elevator and followed the commander to the rooftop.When he saw the people on the roof, he was stunned.

Unexpectedly, there was only one teammate in the end.

I didn't expect that that person was actually...

"Old Zheng?"

Zheng Jingfeng, already fully armed, stood by the helicopter and nodded to him. Seeing his neat police uniform, he even grinned and gave him a thumbs up.

Xie Qingcheng turned his head with a livid face, the commander just came out of the elevator door, Xie Qingcheng: "What kind of international joke are you making?"

Commander: "No kidding, this is our final decision. For this latent reconnaissance mission, the more people there are, the greater the chance of being discovered, so what we need is a single soldier with strong combat capabilities and a high degree of cooperation. You He is not familiar with the rest of the team, but Zheng Jingfeng is an experienced old criminal policeman, and he has known you for many years, so he is the best candidate."

"..."

"...Are you unable to resist his sudden change of mind or—"

"Xie Qingcheng, Captain Zheng is no worse than any police elite you have come into contact with before. He has nearly 40 years of combat experience. I know you are worried about his safety, but I think you can trust him more."

Xie Qingcheng still had a pale face, why did he still hook up with Lao Zheng, just in case something went wrong...

The commander couldn't deny it: "Time is running out, and Team Zheng will explain the rest to you. Let's go."

The helicopter sailed to the port, and the boat was already waiting for commissioning at the military port. The two took the equipment and boarded the boat. After 45 minutes, the mission ship sailed on the vast and boundless sea.

"When you wear this dress, your back really looks like your father. You are tall, with broad shoulders, and a good figure. You are manly enough to please little girls."

Zheng Jingfeng came to the side of the boat, narrowed his leopard eyes, and stood side by side with Xie Qingcheng facing the howling sea breeze.

Xie Qingcheng's face was still calm, and he didn't let go of his mind: "Why do you insist on taking this risk?"

Zheng Jingfeng turned his head and did not answer Xie Qingcheng's words, but said: "The eyebrows and eyes are still like your mother. Beautiful, but when the expression sinks and becomes serious, it is very sharp. Your mother is a woman, and her temperament is fine. Your eyes More aggressive than her. In fact, sometimes it’s safer to be restrained on the outside, young man. Sometimes the tougher you are, the easier it is to suffer. The psychology of many criminals is elusive. Your good-looking and sharp eyes Staring at others, like coercion, may arouse their desire to commit crimes even more."

"..."

Team Zheng smiled: "I'm on a mission, let me remind you, I used to have the habit of bringing my apprentices out. Looking at your brand new police uniform, I can't help but get an occupational disease. This is my old man's experience. You'd better listen."

Xie Qingcheng turned his head to the sea.

The atmosphere is more rigid.

"..." Zheng Jingfeng cleared his throat, and continued to find the topic persistently, "By the way, Officer Xie, have I ever told you about my first formal contact with your parents?"

Xie Qingcheng's eyes remained heavy and he didn't say a word.

In order to ease the atmosphere, Zheng Jingfeng continued on his own: "My first contact with your parents was when I graduated from the police academy."

"That year, the Municipal Bureau was handling a major drug trafficking case in the Golden Triangle, and the network of drug dealer leaders had infiltrated the Municipal Bureau's system. In order to prevent the task from being discovered as much as possible, the old leader selected several Excellent graduates, these young people who have not been formally entered into the police system are required to go to the Golden Triangle for undercover investigation work."

The sea surface was pitch black, Zheng Jingfeng looked at the endless darkness, and told about this past event that he seldom mentioned to others.

"Your parents and I are selected students. At that time, the three of us were organized into a small team. We received the task of sneaking into their drug warehouse base and filming their transaction with a giant inland businessman at that time."

"We spent a lot of thought along the way, and finally sneaked into their warehouse smoothly and quietly, found a cracked bunker to hide, and then began to wait for that giant businessman to appear. According to intelligence, within 24 hours he will definitely Arrived in the Golden Triangle, and came to this warehouse to pick and inspect the goods in person. However..."

When Zheng Jingfeng said this, he paused: "Something unexpected happened."

"The businessman was late. On the first day, he didn't come. On the second and third day, he still didn't show up. Your mother has learned Burmese, and she heard that the drug dealers were also anxious, thinking that the big businessman might be We had to abandon the order and break the contract. At that time, we were running out of food and water, and our latent mission was only for one day, and it was already the third day. We divided the food for one day into three days. If this continues, our own It is difficult to guarantee the safety of life.”

Xie Qingcheng's attention was finally attracted slowly, he asked: "...and then?"

"Then your mother said, I hope we withdraw first, don't gamble, and don't make unnecessary sacrifices." Zheng Jingfeng said, "But your father disagrees. Before he came, he knew the drug lord's behavior and knew that he was very cunning. It is suspected that the drug dealer deliberately postponed the meeting with the big businessman to prevent someone from lurking and arresting him. He thinks we should wait a few more days."

As Zheng Jingfeng talked, the wrinkles at the corners of his eyes seemed to extend backwards, and from the faint smile marks, there were vivid reflections of his youth.He seemed to hear the voices of himself and those two police officers who were also young at the time——

Little policeman Zhou Muying: "Wait a little longer? We won't even have the strength to go out of the base to report the details. You are not brave, you are stupid."

Xie Ping: "My character profiling analysis never fails, this must be a conspiracy."

Zhou Muying blushed angrily, and glared at the bum: "You are sour from Shanghai, son of a bitch, do you think you are taking the graduation exam at school? Besides, do you understand Burmese? They are not pretending at all. They are angry themselves..."

"You're wrong. That's the lower level. The lower level won't know the truth, so of course they are angry. The higher level hasn't shown up yet." Xie Ping was still concentrating on staring at the minions walking outside. He was very rational and extremely focused. He is a police cadet who speaks little, treats people well, and is even a bit dull.

He concentrated on observing the outside, and after a while, just when Zhou Muying and Xie Ping thought he didn't intend to say anything more, he said again seriously:

"I don't discriminate against sex, Officer Zhou, and please don't have regional prejudice. We men in Shanghai are not all sour."

"..." Zhou Muying, "...I've had eighteen lifetimes of bad luck with you..."

Xie Qingcheng hadn't heard much about his parents before they got married, and this was the first time he knew that his parents had such a relationship in the past.

Although he still broods over the fact that Zheng Jingfeng took the risk, it still can't stop his desire to know more about his parents' past.

"...Did they look down on each other at the time?"

Zheng Jingfeng couldn't help lowering his head and laughing: "I don't know about your father. He is very boring, and he is very strict in doing things and speaking. Your mother really hated him at that time."

"how about you?"

"Me?" Zheng Jingfeng remained silent for a few seconds, and a smile came back from the corner of his lips to his eyes. Because his eyes carried many past events, they looked deeper than the vast sea at this moment. They quarreled."

"They listened to me and took a step back. We decided to wait another day." Zheng Jingfeng said, "That day was really difficult. There was only the last half of the compressed biscuit left. Xie Ping was so unhappy when your mother scolded me. I don’t think he was completely confident at the time, so he broke his share to the smallest and gave the big one to us both, hoping to make us wait more peacefully... As a result, on the fourth day, the giant businessman really appeared. We successfully obtained the video and completed the task assigned to us by the organization, but when we retreated, Xie Ping fainted from hunger."

Xie Qingcheng: "..."

"Your mother and I swapped each other's backs all the way through the dense forest and brought him back. He woke up halfway and asked your mother to put him down weakly. I still remember the night sky that day. There are many, many Stars, the three of us fell down on the grass and looked at the stars when we escaped from the danger zone. Suddenly, we didn’t know who laughed first, and then the three of us were lying on the ground, looking at the stars and laughing out loud ..." Zheng Jingfeng paused, "For more than 40 years, I have never seen such a beautiful starry sky."

"Xiao Xie, in the past you always didn't understand why I didn't want you to be involved in these cases. You always said, you are not a policeman, and this is not something you should take care of. Maybe you also resented me, why everything must follow the rules , step by step, so that many opportunities are missed, and this case cannot be settled after 20 years. I don't know... can you understand my feelings now."

"I have already lost the comrades who fought side by side with me for the first time. I can only hear the laughter of 40 years ago in my dreams. I don't want to lose more."

Xie Qingcheng: "..."

Zheng Jingfeng said, raised his hand, and patted Xie Qingcheng's shoulder lightly: "Xiao Xie, I have been waiting for a result, a dawn, but I have experienced many things that you don't know, I have to Not becoming more cautious... But I have never been numb. I have persisted in the front line for more than 30 years, I have given up every opportunity for promotion, and I do not want to retreat, because I have not waited for that dawn."

His eyes met Xie Qingcheng's peach blossom pupils.

Zheng Jingfeng's pupil color slowly settled to a deeper color: "I have never been numb...never."

"Old Zheng..."

"This time you go to Mandela Island, I must accompany you. If this is the last battle in my life, I will feel that it is complete enough." Zheng Jingfeng said, his eyes dropped and fell on On the silver siren on Xie Qingcheng's chest, there was a series of familiar numbers, his eyes became moist when he looked at it.

"Because after 40 years, I'm with them again."

"..."

"Xiao Xie, I hope you can understand my choice this time."

Xie Qingcheng was standing on the deck. Because he had just finished testing the serum in the cabin, he was only wearing a neat and clean light blue summer uniform. But the weather was cold, so he casually put the uniform coat on his shoulders, and the sea breeze swept him away. His uniform jacket rattled.Xie Qingcheng looked at Zheng Jingfeng for a long time, and then said: "...you must pay attention to safety when you are on the island, you are already a grandfather, not the boy you were back then."

Zheng Jingfeng understood Xie Qingcheng's intentions, he raised his leopard eyes, looked at Xie Qingcheng, and smiled with too much emotion.He said slowly: "Really, today I suddenly feel like I'm sick again."

"You are eight years old." Xie Qing rolled his eyes at him, hooked the coat on his shoulders, got off the deck, and burrowed into the warm inner cabin, leaving only one sentence, "Xiao Zheng, what do you want on the island?" Listen to me, run if you want to run, hide if you want to hide, otherwise I will throw you off as soon as I go up, understand?"

Zheng Jingfeng: "...you little bastard..."

A few hours later, the ship finally arrived at Mandela Island, the place where all evils originated.

Since the big ship had to pretend to be an ordinary cruise ship, so as not to attract the attention of the observation tower on the island, Xie Qingcheng and Zheng Jingfeng had to dive into the cold water and swim across the sea when the ferry was closest to the island.

Before setting off, Xie Qingcheng injected himself with rn-13 again to restore his physical strength for a short time, and then put on a special snorkeling device with Lao Zheng, and slowly swam towards the huge monster dormant in the sea.

The Dreambreaker organization is quite considerate. The snorkeling device is designed as a self-heating sleeping bag-type floating bag. They only need to manipulate it a little, and they can complete the dive within ten nautical miles without too much effort.

"We have arrived."

The floating bag touched the wet and soft sand, Xie Qingcheng and Zheng Jingfeng took off their devices, and breathed the first breath of the fishy wind from Mandela Island.

Because of the previous fierce battle, the island is now covered with rusted steel machines, damaged buildings and trees, and mottled blood.

"The Fengbo navigation system has been activated, and our current location is 12 o'clock horizontally and 34 o'clock vertically in the east of Mandela Island."

Both Xie Qingcheng and Zheng Jingfeng had transmission microphones pinned to their ears, and Fengbo bracelets on their hands.After landing on the island, the system was turned on immediately and began to give them guidance and warnings.

"This mission is a latent investigation, and the destination is Blood River. Please go forward from 12 o'clock and enter the dark forest."

Zheng Jingfeng took a deep breath, turned to look at Xie Qingcheng: "Let's go."

"Wait a moment."

Xie Qingcheng took out a No. 2 spirit Ebola patient's serum from the distribution bag at any time.

Zheng Jingfeng held him back: "Didn't you have an injection on the boat? Using too much of this thing is definitely not good for your health..."

"That's the test dose, and it's overdue."

As Xie Qingcheng said, he had already unscrewed the needle, pulled out the medicine without blinking, and injected it into his blood vessel.

He gritted his teeth, feeling the blood engulfed in the medicine, flowing to his whole body.

He closed his eyes, and the voice in his ears suddenly became clearer countless times, and some Hertz that normal people could not receive was received by him, and he could even hear the ladybugs crawling among the forest leaves.

This burst of sound isn't great, like someone is trying to cram the world's radio waves into a radio antenna.During the test, he was dizzy because he didn't hold on for the first moment.

However, because he is the first emperor, he has a very special physique, and his powerful ability allows him to quickly adapt to this feeling. Therefore, when he was officially used this time, although he was still very sick at the first moment, he quickly adjusted as much as possible. Own.

Zheng Jingfeng: "How is it?"

Xie Qingcheng calmed down with a pale face, took a deep breath: "Okay, let's go."

The No. 2 serum was very useful. They followed the map guidance given by the storm system and headed north, avoiding the remaining mechanical soldiers and mechanical dogs, and finally arrived at the blood river where the first-order team had an accident.

Xie Qingcheng and Zheng Jingfeng stopped in their tracks, and the scene in front of them shocked them both...
