Baiyun Mountain, beside Yunmeng Lake.

It has been raining here for days, but today it finally cleared up.

Clouds and smog temporarily moved away from the green mountains and green waters, and the sun shone through.But because the case has not really been solved yet, there are still dark clouds hanging over everyone's hearts.

In Yunmeng Lake, the salvage team is doing meticulous salvage work.

Around the lakeshore, Trace Inspection is carefully searching for clues.

It's a pity that the rain for several days has completely repainted the footprints and other traces. It is really difficult to speculate what happened on the night of the crime based on the traces at the scene.

During this period, Qi Zang noticed that Wei Fan, who was squatting on the ground trying to find footprints, was a little confused.

This is a newcomer assigned to him two months ago. He has just graduated, and his grades are very good in all aspects, but he is not as good as Li Zhengzheng and Bai Shuwei. Wei Fan is usually more introverted and doesn't like to play jokes with them.

Thinking that he had discovered something, Qi Zang walked over and asked him about the progress of collecting clues.

Wei Fan stood up and looked at Qi Zang with a look of apology. "I, I haven't made any progress."

"Then what are you confused about?" Qi Zang asked.

Wei Fan frowned even tighter. "I went to Liu Na's school again this morning to find out the situation. I found that everyone had a low opinion of her. She even pushed a classmate down the stairs. She really wanted to kill that classmate."

According to Wei Fan, that classmate was called Wang Zhaojin.

Wang Zhaojin's family runs their own company, and her father is much richer than the general manager like Liu Na's father who works for others.

Wang Zhaojin is generous and decent, and is polite to his classmates. He is really Bai Fumei.Of course, she is more popular with the classmates, so she arouses Liu Na's jealousy.

Everyone agrees that Liu Na is a bad-hearted and vicious girl.

Scratching his head, Wei Fan's eyes drooped as if he didn't dare to look directly at Qi Zang. "Boss, I know that my thinking is wrong. I just...just a thought like this suddenly crossed my mind...I don't mean Liu Na, I just thought of——

"You said, if the victim is a villain who has done many evils, we spend so much police force to find the murderer for him... Is this kind of thing really worth it?"

Hearing this, Qi Zang's temples twitched again.

These newcomers are really more difficult to bring in each time.

When he was as old as they were, he just ran around, looking for clues, reasoning, and catching criminals. How could he have any extra time to think about this kind of problem that can almost be attributed to the category of philosophy when he thinks about it in a deeper way?

At this moment, Qi Zang suddenly thought of Xu Ci.

It was during a certain class at Public Security University, some students asked a similar question——

"If the deceased is not a good person, what's the point of finding the murderer for him? Besides, when we handle a case, must we respect procedural justice? In some extraordinary moments, can we also adopt some extraordinary measures?"

The teacher did not answer directly, but asked other students to answer.

Naturally, he invited Xu Ci, a top student in his eyes who is both good in character and academics.

Qi Zang had been dozing off all the time, but when he heard Xu Ci speak, he woke up for some reason.

"It is not advisable to ignore procedural justice for the sake of justice of the result. The police supervise the public, but they also need to supervise themselves. Otherwise, it will easily cause the source to be unclean.

"The work of the police is a line of defense and a cornerstone. Injustice in procedures will lead to instability of the cornerstone. If this is the case, the building will collapse. What is fairness and justice?

"As for the question of whether the murderer is a villain...First of all, what is the police? The police are based on the criminal and administrative powers of the country's constitution and laws, with the purpose of maintaining social order and preventing harm to society, and carry out police criminal and administrative actions according to law. .

"To put it simply, the law needs the police to enforce. What the police have to do is to maintain the dignity of the law. Good and evil, good and bad, this is a moral judgment. What crime does a person commit and what kind of punishment should be imposed , which is a legal issue.

"Trial needs to rely on the law, rather than an individual relying on moral standards to implement private punishment. Otherwise, how can the justice of the law be realized? In order to maintain the dignity of the law, the police must treat everyone equally. Therefore, we will not let any murderer go. This It has nothing to do with the dead being good or bad."

In the class that year, Qi Zang was the first to applaud Xu Ci.

Eight years after graduation, Qi Zang opened his mouth and slowly repeated what Xu Ci said back then.In his eyes, the sharpness cultivated in his years of criminal police career quietly dissipated at this moment, and a bit of tenderness, as well as a bit of hard-to-disguise reminiscence and appreciation appeared.

Facing Wei Fan in front of him, Qi Zang added another sentence: "When an ordinary person picks up a butcher knife, he has already put himself above the law. But the judgment of good and evil should never be left in the hands of a certain person. As long as As a human being, we can make mistakes. This time he killed a bad guy, what about next time?

"As a policeman, do your duty and restore the truth as much as possible. I think it's enough to do what we should do."

When he said these words, a person appeared in Qi Zang's mind - Xie Qiao.

After thinking about some of his actions, Qi Zang's eyes darkened obviously, and his expression returned to seriousness.

He still thinks that Xie Qiao is Xu Ci.

It's just...is Xu Ci now, or Xu Ci back then?

In a short while, Qi Zang's mood has changed several times.

Wei Fan didn't notice it at all, he just looked ashamed, and immediately said: "Thank you, Boss, I suddenly understood. From now on... I won't be in the wrong again. I will try my best to find clues!"

Qi Zang tidied up all his complicated thoughts, patted him on the shoulder and turned to leave when his cell phone rang, and he received a call from Shan Kang.

"what's the situation?"

"Zhu Xiu... I'm lost."

"What's going on?" Qi Zang frowned.

Shan Kang immediately said: "She went to Shanyue Plaza, where there are so many entrances and exits... I didn't bring enough people to guard all the doors. And I suspect that she might have changed her attire. I will check the surveillance immediately, one by one! "

·

The online car-hailing car drove Xu Ci and Zhu Xiu away from Shanyue Plaza, but did not go directly to Yongquan Village, but arrived at a newly developed economic development zone about 20 minutes later.

A new road has just been built here, and it has not yet been opened to traffic. The most important thing is that the monitoring along the road has not been installed yet.

Xu Ci took Zhu Xiu out of the car, waited for the driver to drive away in the online car-hailing car, led her around, walked through a forest, and stopped by a car.

Taking out the car keys from his pocket, Xu Ci opened and unlocked the car, and glanced at Zhu Xiu indifferently. "Get into the passenger seat, please."

Zhu Xiu frowned and sat down.

Then she saw Xu Ci get into the driver's seat, it seemed that he planned to drive to Yongquan Village himself.

The car was quickly started and drove towards the provincial road.

Zhu Xiu really couldn't hold back and asked, "Why, why are you so troublesome? You're not hiding from the police, are you? They'll find out sooner or later. There are surveillance cameras everywhere in the shopping mall."

"It's not the police we're hiding from, it's that group of people." Xu Ci looked straight ahead and said calmly, "They may have been eyeing you a long time ago. It started when Mr. Guan decided to 'let go' of you."

Zhu Xiu pursed her lips subconsciously.

Xu Ci continued: "If you're lucky, they haven't found out that Yuan Xiaobing is in Yongquan Village. Then they will definitely follow you. We can't take them to Yongquan Village. Otherwise, you, me, and Yuan Xiaobing will all be in trouble." Life is in danger.

"Of course, if what we did just now was in vain, and no one is following you...it means that Yuan Xiaobing is out of luck. They don't need to start with you, it can only be because they already know Yuan Xiaobing's whereabouts. Then Yuan Xiaobing may have encountered an accident."

Hearing this, Zhu Xiu's face turned pale, and she took a deep breath. With her fingers clasped on the seat, she couldn't help turning her head to look at Xu Ci. "You, who the hell are you? You do all this..."

Xu Ci said: "Me? An ordinary person engaged in internal control. I just want to see if I can get back the 160 million."

Zhu Xiu couldn't believe Xu Ci's words now. "It's the company's money, not yours. You don't have to work hard."

Xu Ci: "The president promised me that he will give me 25% of the losses I recover. Hmm... Although it is indeed not a huge sum of money, mosquito legs are also meat. To make money, it is inevitable to take some risks."

Zhu Xiu: "..."

Xu Ci: "Although the salary and year-end bonus are a little higher than yours, in the end, I'm just a worker."

Zhu Xiu: "..."

"You, are you really just doing it for money? That's why you didn't tell the police or report that force even though you knew so much?"

"Even if you know...don't tell the police. Tell them what?" Xu Ci turned his head and glanced at Zhu Xiu lightly, but that look made her feel cold all over.

"Am I guessing right, Yuan Xiaobing is really the murderer?"

"You—!" Zhu Xiu immediately bit her lip and stopped talking.

Xu Ci smiled.Continuing to look straight ahead at the lane ahead, he said, "It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter to me whether he kills or not. As I said, I just want to earn some bonuses."

the other side.

Qi Zang on Baiyun Mountain received a message from Shankang——

Through investigation and monitoring, they locked a person suspected of Zhu Xiu, and found the owner of the car through the license plate, who was a driver who drove an online car-hailing car.

The driver took them to the place where Xu Ci and Zhu Xiu got off, but everyone fell into a new predicament.The road has just been repaired and has not yet been opened to traffic. Naturally, there is no monitoring.

Shan Kang: "Why does Zhu Xiu have such a strong sense of anti-reconnaissance? She can only do this to hide from the police, but why? Could it be that she is really one of the murderers?

"Qi team, what's the next step? Shall I check all the monitoring at the nearby intersections? There are as many as twenty intersections around this development zone. I'm not sure when the car came in... Let's check it out." It’s difficult and takes a lot of time.”

"Wait for me, I'll make a call."

After being silent for a while, Qi Zang said this, hung up the phone, and then dialed a series of numbers that he had only known for a while, but seemed to be familiar by heart.

After the phone rang three times, the person over there answered it.

Just as Qi Zang was about to speak, he was taken aback when he heard something.

That was the song from Xu Ci's car radio station.

The song is called "Daughter's Love", and it just hit the line "Mandarin ducks live together and butterflies fly together, and the spring scenery in the garden is intoxicating."

This song has a deep impression on Qi Zang.

Not long after the start of school in their sophomore year, they went to the KTV to sing together in the dormitory. Xu Ci kept silent. Later, everyone forcibly plugged in a microphone, and the song happened to cut to the song "Daughter's Love".

Xu Ci was forced to sing helplessly, and his voice was surprisingly good.After drinking some wine, his voice was a little hoarse, and it sounded extremely magnetic.

Unknowingly, Qi Zang kept staring at Xu Ci.After Xu Ci noticed it, he turned his head to look at Qi Zang intentionally or unintentionally, and met his gaze.

The corners of his eyes and brows were stained red because of the alcohol, Xu Ci's eyes were still clear and cold, but there was a glimmer of water that seemed to be there.

At that moment, he just sang the line: "Ask the holy monk quietly, is the daughter beautiful, is the daughter beautiful?"

Qi Zang felt that he probably drank too much, so that he became insane, and suddenly shouted three times in a row: "Mei Meimei!"

Xu Ci was stunned, put down the microphone, and refused to sing any more, not sure if he was a little angry from embarrassment.

Qi Zang came to his senses when he learned about it later, he blushed and was ridiculed by his roommates for three full years.

"What do you say about the royal power and wealth, what are you afraid of the precepts and rules, I only hope that the sky will last forever, and I will be with the person I want closely..."

At first, it was a good story about a pair of lovers who broke through all obstacles, but after a long time, Qi Zang discovered that the song was really about not wanting to want it, but not wanting it.

Tang Seng didn't dare to ask for it, he was destined to become a Buddha.

Daughter Country can't even ask for his next life.

Many scenes flashed back in Qi Zang's mind, but only three seconds passed in reality.

He quickly asked Xu Ci in a serious tone: "You are driving. Zhu Xiu is with you?"
