misplaced survival

"Captain, the people at the subway station have been rescued, and the ambulance just left..." Although the policeman was wearing a raincoat, his body was already completely soaked.

The man he called the captain was standing on the roof of the car directing the police to carry out the rescue.

This heavy rain was unexpected by everyone.There are often rains in Jianglong City, but they are concentrated in summer, and there are occasional rains in winter, but it has never been so pouring.

The hardest hit by this heavy rain was the Jiangxin District. Numerous underground garages and many subway lines were flooded, and the roads were flooded with water. The telephone calls of the affected people flooded the police hotline. All the policemen were too busy to rescue them.

Seeing the situation, Song Zhou rushed to help with members of the Criminal Investigation Brigade.

In the midst of the storm and darkness, the siren of the police car is like a needle that calms the sea, calming all the panicked people.

Song Zhou leaned on the roof of the car with one hand, jumped off neatly, and said loudly in the wind: "Brothers have worked hard, if you persist, the heavy rain will stop soon."

In this winter, I was shivering from the cold standing on the side of the road, let alone soaking in the water all night.Several comrades are already unable to hold on, and now is the time when manpower is most scarce, and there is no shortage of manpower anymore.

The police officer nodded firmly, "Captain, don't worry, we can handle it!"

His lower teeth were so cold that he couldn't help shaking, his fists were clenched tightly, and there was no sign of retreat on his face.

Song Zhou grabbed the policeman's shoulder, grabbed it a little harder, nodded knowingly, and encouraged him, and immediately joined the rescue mission.

The flood control and rescue team was deployed urgently, and all departments fully cooperated, and the rescued people spontaneously assisted in the rescue.

When a person is tired, someone will make up for it immediately. They use a pair of hands connected as a chain to guide the rescued person in the dark.

Try to fight against the ruthless natural disaster with the power of mortals.

There was a sudden thunder, and a flash of lightning broke through the dark clouds like a cold sharp blade, as if a pair of big hands were tearing away the treacherous clouds, and the continuous heavy rain suddenly dropped, as suddenly as when it came.

The flood control and rescue team immediately started flood discharge work. Seeing the water level on the road gradually drop, revealing the sludge underneath, the whole city was in a state of disarray.

"The post-disaster reconstruction is the most troublesome thing. In a few months, Jiangxin District may not be able to recover." Lin Yue moved the sandbags for a day, and finally found time to rest. He squatted on the side of the road, gnawing bread, and Swallow with cold mineral water.

He looked at Song Zhou who was still helping to carry supplies not far away, and he couldn't help but sigh in his heart. During the past few days of getting along, the team felt that Song Zhou was a good person and he had a way of doing things.

What's more, he couldn't figure out what happened to Song Zhou, and he was transferred to them from the headquarter of the provincial department.

It is said that the new official took office three fires, this sudden disaster, Song Zhou, as the captain, did everything by himself, did not rest for several days, and has been taking care of the emotions of the team members.

Although the big guys didn't say anything, they recognized the new captain from the bottom of their hearts.

"Something happened!" Tao Yiran walked through the mud with difficulty, and strode towards Song Zhou, "Captain Song, news came from Wenhe intersection that the road at the entrance of Jiexin Park was soaked by floods for a few days, and it suddenly cracked." opened!"

Song Zhou put the materials in his hands in the dry area that had been cleaned up, and turned to look at Tao Yiran, "Do you want us to help with maintenance?"

Tao Yiran shook his head, and immediately added: "The rescue team was just about to fill in the hole, and when they looked inside, they found a few human finger bones, which seemed to be quite old. They didn't dare to move anymore, so let me come quickly." Inform the captain of you."

Song Zhou asked other police officers to take his place, continue to carry supplies, turned around and walked towards the intersection immediately, "Notify the rest of the team, come and gather if you have nothing to do."

"Yes!" Tao Yiran shook his voice.

Lin Yue threw the packing bags and empty bottles into the trash recycling bin, hurried to catch up with the two, and explained: "Team Song, you may not know that Wenhe Road was the first to respond to the renovation of the old city, and it has not been touched after the renovation. , but no matter what, nearly ten years have passed, if someone is buried in the ground..."

It's probably an old case.

"I know."

Seeing the captain's answer so decisively, Lin Yue didn't realize for a while whether he knew about the renovation of Wenhe Road or the issue of burying the corpse.

"Yiran, please go back to the team to get a list of missing persons during the renovation of the old city." Song Zhou stopped and thought for a while, looked at Tao Yiran, and then turned his gaze to Lin Yue, "Deputy Lin, you Come with me."

"Captain Song doesn't need to be so polite." Tao Yiran was flattered and scratched his hair embarrassedly.

Seeing Tao Yiran leave, Song Zhou and Lin Yue immediately rushed to Wenhe intersection, only to see that the cordon had been pulled up, and the police officers who arrived at the scene quickly controlled the scene.

"Song team, deputy team." When the policeman saw the person, he immediately greeted them, and pulled up the cordon to let the two pass.

Song Zhou nodded in response, bent down and walked into the scene, holding the hand of the captain of the rescue team who came, "Song Zhou of the criminal investigation team."

"Hi Team Song, my name is Zhang Ke, and I'm from the flood control rescue team." Zhang Ke made way sideways, pointing to the deep pit ahead, "We asked the residents nearby that there was no pit here, and it must have been discovered after the flood of."

"After the corpse decomposes, the volume becomes smaller, the soil sinks, and the road surface is indeed not solid." Song Zhou squatted by the side of the pit and looked inward, only to see bones exposed on one side of the crack.

If it weren't for this flood, perhaps it would have been later in the day.

He seemed to hear the constant struggle and cries of pain, and his gaze was fixed on the phalanx in the deep pit like a questioning one.

Who are you?Why is it here?Who killed you in such a cruel way?

The darkness in the cracks seems to be attractive, pulling the minds of the bystanders to explore the truth. Those grievances that have been silent for many years will finally see the light of day.

It was a darker hour—

On the playground, a man in a black hoodie was wielding a shovel, as if he was burying something.

"Really, I haven't played enough to die so soon."

Like an ant, he looked contemptuously at the person under the sand, poured the soil from the shovel down to cover the person's ugly face, and stepped on his feet heavily, the resentment in his heart still not dissipating.

He suddenly felt something, turned his head suddenly, met the eyes of the students not far away, and suddenly smiled secretly.

Jiang Xiyan who was discovered hurriedly took a step back, looked back at the teaching building, reacted quickly, and hurried towards the school gate pretending to ignore it.

He seems calm, but his pace is fast, constantly looking for his way out.He walked straight to a crowded place, as long as there were enough people around, he was safe for the time being.

Jiang Xiyan resisted not looking back, under the illumination of the street lamp, the shadow behind him, which was still some distance away from him, kept approaching, and gradually intersected with his shadow.

He took out his mobile phone, looked at the number in the address book, hesitated for a while, and then pressed the dial button.

There was a noisy conversation on the other end of the phone, and a man asked impatiently, "Why are you calling at this time?"

"Dad, I'm out of school, can you come pick me up?" Jiang Xiyan's voice trembled slightly, he knew that once he told his father what happened now, the people behind him would definitely catch him immediately.

The person on the other end of the phone didn't notice that something was wrong with Jiang Xiyan, he said hastily, "Dad is not free today, what's the trouble, hang up", and hung up the phone.

Jiang Xiyan laughed at himself, the schoolbag in his hand was clenched into deep folds, he couldn't help speeding up his pace, the extreme nervousness made his breath choked in his throat and kept falling, blocking his heart and getting heavier.

Looking at the passers-by, people kept casting their eyes on him, but when they saw the person behind him, they stopped to ask questions.

Seeing that the little pity in front of him clearly wanted to ask for help, but no one came to help, the man gave a low laugh, as if mocking the pity of the other party.

Seeing that there was only one road ahead, he took out a handkerchief from his pocket and folded it calmly, gradually closing the distance between them.

Jiang Xiyan understood the thoughts of these passers-by, and no one wanted to get into trouble.But going on like this is not an option, the people behind will catch up to him sooner or later.

Where is his way of life?

But no matter what, as long as there is a glimmer of hope, he will give it a try.Thinking about it, Jiang Xiyan took a deep breath, ran forward, and sank into the darkness.

This place is about to be demolished, and no one has lived there for a long time. The street lights on both sides of the path are in disrepair, and the light is minimal.

The glass on the window fell off and shattered to the ground, slumped on the wet and slippery moss. Passers-by stepped on it unintentionally, and the shards crackled, which was very crisp in the secluded path.

The path here was narrow and winding, Jiang Xiyan could only run away based on feeling, trying to get rid of the people behind him.

But the man seemed to know the way here very well, and he pursued him relentlessly, pressing every step of the way.

Jiang Xiyan dodged and hid in a house, leaning his back against the door, covering his mouth and nose with his hands, trying to silence his panting.

Hearing the approaching footsteps, Jiang Xiyan bit his lower lip tightly, took out his mobile phone tremblingly, stared at the screen of the mobile phone in a daze.

When he was about to die, he didn't know who to call.

The footsteps stopped, and Jiang Xiyan realized that the person should be standing outside the door. He grabbed the phone tightly and pressed three numbers.

There was a sudden knocking sound, and the assailants outside the door tried to break in.

Jiang Xiyan looked at the precarious door panel and at the phone screen, wondering which one was faster.

He looked up, greedily wanting to take one last look at the moon.

When Jiang Xiyan didn't notice, the phone screen flickered a few times, and there was an inexplicable sound of electricity coming from the microphone.

"Hello?" Song Zhou was woken up by the ringing of the bell. Just as he was about to ask a question, he heard a harsh noise and quickly pulled the microphone away.

From the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of the moon outside the window. For some reason, today is obviously not the fifteenth day. Why is the moon so round?

Seeing the call connected, Jiang Xiyan breathed a sigh of relief, and quickly explained: "Hey, are you the police, I am a student of Jiangxin No. [-] Middle School, my name is Jiang Xiyan, and I am being hunted down."

"Huh?" A man's doubtful voice came from the other end of the phone.

Jiang Xiyan knew that even if the police arrived now, he would be in danger, so he said, "Uncle policeman, there was a murder case in Jiangxin No. [-] Middle School just now, and someone was buried in the lawn next to the playground. If possible, please Go and have a look as soon as possible."

"Wait a minute." After two days of sleepless investigations, Song Zhou was awakened and rubbed his neck, "You just said...your name is Jiang Xiyan?"

Song Zhou said, staring at the information of the deceased in front of him. They have been investigating the bones found by Wen Helu for the past two days.

Coincidentally, the deceased in this case was also named Jiang Xiyan.
