Swallowing the Seas

The next morning.

The early morning sunshine in Jinhai summer accompanied by birds chirping through the curtains, Wu Yu dimly opened his eyes, closed them for a moment, then sat up and yawned long, and found that the surrounding room furnishings were not right - it was Bu Chonghua's master. lie down.

Eating the leader's food, living in the leader's food, and even putting the leader to sleep, as a subordinate, his life has reached its peak at this moment...

Wu Yu rolled over and got out of bed rubbing his sleepy eyes. Seeing that it was already eight o'clock in the morning, he turned around and said, "Leader! Leader?"

It was quiet outside the house and there was no response, so I guess I had already gone to work.

Wu Yu made the bed a little bit, and was about to go upstairs to the guest bedroom to brush his teeth and wash his face. However, when the door of the master bedroom opened, a black thing whizzed down his head, making him step back three steps like lightning. A sock that only hangs in mid-air.

……sock……

The black men's socks dangled and were tied to the top of the door by a thin rope, bulging and stuffed with something.Wu Yu stared at it blankly for about ten seconds, then raised his eyebrows and opened the socks to see that there was a latest mobile phone and earphone power and data cables in a ball inside, and a note was pasted on the screen of the mobile phone that hadn't been torn off. , neatly wrote: [Christmas gift for Wu Yu, Bu Chonghua].

There was another note on the back, the handwriting was much more scribbled, it should have been written hastily:

[The autopsy result of the killer at the construction site came out, I'm going to the technical team, you can go to work in the afternoon. PS: It is not allowed to download Yui Hatano with new mobile phones. 】

The air was quiet, Wu Yu picked up the socks with two fingers, his eyes were a little subtle.

"...I understand the truth, but these socks must have been worn."

·

"The deceased's body trauma is consistent with the characteristics of mild internal and external severe, extensive and multiple injuries, and all injuries formed at one time. From the autopsy results alone, there is no doubt that Gao Chuan died." In the office of the technical team, Wang Jiuling was holding a copy of the autopsy report. Di Fan: "The deceased's fingerprints are not recorded in the national criminal database. According to your speculation, we went to check the entry and exit records. It turns out that the reason why he has no criminal record is——"

With a snap, Wang Jiuling slapped the autopsy report in front of Bu Chonghua, and pointed to the information of the deceased on the front page: "Nationality, Myanmar."

Bu Chonghua only glanced at it, and the speculation in his heart was confirmed, but he was not particularly touched: "I asked you to check his whereabouts in the past month. Do you have any special clues?"

Wang Jiuling shrugged and pointed to a pile of personal belongings packed in evidence bags in front of him: "All the bits and pieces are here, the ID card is fake, the student ID card is fake, the POLO shirt is a high imitation, and the watch is a fake one." It's old and refurbished, the phone is a parallel import from Hong Kong... Oh yes, the phone is full of various photos of Wu Yu stalking, not to mention, it's quite scary."

Bu Chonghua casually picked up the parallel phone, and the technical team had already unlocked it, all the data had been restored, and the photo album was almost full of Wu Yu.Wu Yu in the bookstore, Wu Yu on the way home from work, Wu Yu squatting at the fish stall downstairs of the Public Security Bureau waiting for skewers to eat, sitting on a bench by the street with one hand in his trouser pocket and the other reaching out to feed stray kittens Wu Yu...all the photos are from the side or the back from a long distance, and none of them can clearly see the front face.

Bu Chonghua searched for a long time, and the only one that could clearly show his face was the last photo taken by this phone - himself standing in the hospital corridor talking to Jiang Ting.

"I'm really not as good as Wu Yu," this thought came to Bu Chonghua's mind in an instant accompanied by absurdity and helplessness: "No wonder the killer said that I can get to the painter's side only by my face, maybe he really thinks so."

The grandson surnamed Wu has always felt inferior in front of the elite class. When will he know how much effort the elite class has to put in to stand beside someone like him?

"How is it?" Wang Jiuling asked casually.

"It's okay." Bu Chonghua took a deep breath, and quickly swipe the screen of the phone: "There are a few pictures that Wu Yu took quite nicely. I'll ask the technician to send them to me later."

"Ren Xiao Wu is very handsome and photogenic." Wang Jiuling didn't think about it at all, and took it for granted: "You see how dangerous Ren Xiao Wu is when you go out to work with you, maybe he will be captured by vicious criminals one day, or Hurry up and marry the eldest princess to the technical team and get married. It is safe, practical, and the salary is high, and the living allowance has been increased by 200 yuan."

Bu Chonghua didn't raise his head: "Yes, buy Bawang..."

Wang Jiuling said coldly, "Cigarette butts."

The air suddenly fell into silence, and Bu Chonghua concentrated on flipping through the phone album without saying a word.

Wang Jiuling had an epic and crushing advantage in bilateral diplomatic relations. He took a sip of tea with a victorious expression, and suddenly saw Bu Chonghua flicking his finger on the screen, and stopped thoughtfully. After staring at a picture for a while, he let out a soft "hey".

The first photo in the phone is displayed on the screen. It may be a random photo taken by the Pixel just after turning it on. It is a little blurry, but you can still see the faint outlines of houses and undulating wilderness in the distance.

Wang Jiuling came over to take a look, quite puzzled: "What's the matter with you?"

"...It looks familiar."

"Does this look familiar to you?!"

Bu Chonghua didn't answer, and zoomed in on the blurry house in the image for a moment, then suddenly said, "This is Xiaobeizhuang."

Wang Jiuling: "Huh?"

"The whole village has a rectangular ring structure, but the illegal self-built building protrudes towards the southeast, and it looks like a saddle-shaped outline from a distance. You can see that it is the tallest five-story cement building in Xiaobeizhuang. Wu and I Yu walked around the village yesterday, and the roofs of the buildings are white."

Wang Jiuling looked at him, already stunned.

"I can't go wrong, this is Xiaobeizhuang." Bu Chonghua threw his phone on the table and stood up: "The deceased once took this photo at a height within [-] kilometers to the south of Xiaobeizhuang. That's where he got the phone - immediately go and find out what buildings are near the south of Xiaobeizhuang, hurry up!"

Director Wang just woke up like a dream, and he gave Bu Chonghua a thumbs-up in a hurry before rushing out the door without saying a word.This case has been listed as a first-level urgent supervision case by the top, and the police station in the jurisdiction called back: "Report to the Wang Department, there is an abandoned factory building 1200 meters south of Xiaobeizhuang. It used to be a local nitrogen fertilizer production enterprise. Later, due to environmental pollution, it was ordered to rectify by Beidao Xincun Development Zone, and it has been vacant for more than a year!"

Just as Wang Jiuling was about to say something, Bu Chonghua suddenly asked suspiciously, "Nitrogen fertilizer?"

Ammonium nitrate, ammonium chloride, ammonium hydrogen phosphate... are exactly the same as the trace residues on Chen Yuanliang's body bag!

In other words, the killer on the construction site and "Sanqi" may have both been to that abandoned factory!

Wang Jiuling was so enlightened that he almost dropped the microphone, only to hear the chair rubbing against the ground behind him, and Bu Chonghua got up and rushed out of the technical team office, and quickly ordered as he walked: "Send me the address, and call the local police station immediately." Send people to surround the factory building. Cai Lin! Come with me to investigate suspicious buildings near Xiaobeizhuang, start now!"

Wooooooooooooooooooooooooo

The siren blared rapidly across the sky above Jinhai City, and the police car roared through the intersection.In front of a cigarette shop across the road, Wu Yu lowered his head to light a cigarette while returning to the door of the Wrangler's car. He was slightly taken aback when he saw the situation, and watched the police car go away. Something suddenly touched his keen sixth sense.

"..."

He hesitated for a few seconds, took out his cell phone and dialed Bu Chonghua's number.

"Lejia Nitrogen Fertilizer Production Company was ordered to rectify by the relevant department two years ago because of environmental pollution. Later, it went bankrupt and moved out. The original factory building used to pay off debts has been vacant due to various formalities. It may have become a waste land... "

The phone buzzed, Bu Chonghua raised his hand to interrupt Cai Lin, and was about to press the answer button when he suddenly stopped.

Cai Lin peeked at his phone while driving, and then at Bu Chonghua's sideways face, wondering why he didn't pick it up?

The phone hangs up naturally, and it vibrated a few more times in a short while, and the messages come one after another——

Wu Yu: [I just saw a large car with a siren coming out of our branch office. 】

【What happened?Where are you? 】

Bu Chonghua hung his thumb in the air for a moment, his amber eyes remained motionless, as if he suddenly saw the sad smiling face under the hazy sky of the construction site through the word Wu Yu on the screen of the mobile phone, and the five words in an extremely low voice --"I like you too."

Immediately afterwards, he jumped down from the eighth floor, and with the killer who was about to tell the police, he threw himself into the Scarlet Land without hesitation.

Bu Chonghua closed his eyes, opened them again after a while, typed a line of words on the phone without the slightest expression, and clicked send.

— Jingle!

[I'm at the Forensic Medicine Office of the Municipal Bureau, come and see me after lunch. 】

Wu Yu stared at the succinct reply on the phone screen, slowly frowned, and after a while looked up at the direction where the police car was speeding away just now, the corners of his eyes slowly narrowed into sharp shapes, typed a word and clicked send——

【it is good】.

Then, smoking a cigarette between his canine teeth, he opened the door of the Wrangler and got in, started the car, turned around, and followed the police car out of the intersection.

·

To the south of Xiaobeizhuang is a large undulating wilderness. From a distance, you can see high-voltage electric towers standing among the hills, and the Huancheng River, which gathers the tributaries of the Sili River, rushes northward and rushes towards the gray sky.

"Fuck!" Cai Lin cut off the Bluetooth phone and yelled: "The police station in the jurisdiction went wrong! I haven't found where it is yet!"

"It's really hard to find this place, it's degraded back to cultivated land, and I can't drive." Bu Chonghua looked at the faint village buildings outside the windshield, and after pondering for a moment, he ordered: "Park the car near Xiaobeizhuang, and we will go separately. Try walking south."

"Oh, okay!"

It is true that small police cars cannot climb mountains and ridges in this kind of place. Fortunately, the destination is only more than one kilometer away from Xiaobeizhuang, and it can be reached in 10 to [-] minutes.Bu Chonghua left his car near Xiaobeizhuang, asked a local for directions, and walked south along the river embankment; but he couldn't find the abandoned factory building after walking for more than half an hour in the wilderness where the grass reached his knees. There, the sky is getting darker and darker, and there are only high and low slopes around, and deep and shallow ditches surrounding the fields.

"Hey! Fellow countryman!" Cai Lin suddenly caught a glimpse of a few men dressed as villagers standing and talking on the ridge of the field, so he raised his trousers and walked down a few steps: "Where is the Lejia Nitrogen Fertilizer Factory?"

The villagers looked at each other and looked at each other.

"Lejia Nitrogen Fertilizer Factory! It has moved away!" Cai Lin gestured: "It's near here! Do you know how to get there?"

The villagers discussed a few words in their dialects, and all looked back blankly: "Huh?"

Bu Chonghua patted Cai Lin on the shoulder to signal him to step back. He recalled the accents he heard a few women chatting in Xiaobeizhuang that day, and tried to imitate them:

"—There used to be a factory here, but now it's empty and closed! Do you know where it is? Let's do a land survey!"

Cai Linman asked suspiciously: "Do they know what land surveying is?"

Bu Chonghua said softly: "Should I find you a suona and announce to the world that you are the detachment police number 156548?"

Cai Lin: "..."

"Chemical fertilizer factory?" At this time, a younger villager who was far away in the crowd seemed to understand, and looked Bu Chonghua up and down, "Where are you going to make seeds? The road is not easy to walk." !"

Finally someone who understood, Cai Lin quickly asked, "Can you take us there?"

The villagers hesitated for a while, and looked back at the field ridge in the distance, as if they were weighing something.

Cai Lin couldn't wait, and took out 50 yuan from his pocket.Bu Chonghua's conditioned reflex did not stop him, and he saw that he had already jumped off the field ridge and handed the banknotes to the villager: "Excuse me, please show me the way, just take us to the outside of the factory wall, thank you!"

"Ouch! You are so stupid!" The villager put a white towel on his shoulders, took the money and stuffed it into his pocket quickly, without any hesitation, he walked up in three steps with a smile on his face. On the ridge: "Okay! Let's go!"

Cai Lin climbed up, feeling quite proud, but suddenly caught a glimpse of Bu Chonghua's slightly gloomy face, and realized that he seemed to have violated the rules just now, so he quickly shrank his neck.

Bu Chonghua didn't say anything, and said lightly, "Let's go."

The villagers farming nearby obviously have their own way of identifying the way, so they took Bu Chonghua and Cai Lin to take another shortcut, split the thick grass half as tall as a person, and asked if there was a connection: "Muds Four dry work?"

Cai Lin: "Measure the land! Build a house!"

"Oh—" The villagers seem to understand, "Shall we build a house and sell it?"

"..." Cai Lin: "Yes, yes, sell! Sell!"

"How much money do you want?"

"I don't know about it. I can't afford it anyway. Our leader must be able to afford it. Isn't it the leader?"

Bu Chonghua didn't pay attention to Cai Lin at all, he walked in the last of the three, stepped on the mud ditch on the high side of the embankment, and asked: "I heard that you came here yesterday to help the police, what happened?" What's wrong?"

"Police?" The villagers were confused, "Oh, let's check the temporary residence permit, I don't know. There are too many part-time jobs in the village—too many renting houses—"

"How did I hear that there was a murder case here?"

"Assault case?! There are sisters and sisters, how can there be a murder case here! The four policemen are going to drive the renters away—"

The villagers lifted up the grass with a clatter, and their eyes suddenly opened up. They saw the river around the city rushing to the distance under their feet, and a dilapidated concrete building covered with vines could be seen hidden behind the slope on the other side.

"——Send them away, we can't afford to rent a house if we build a house!" The villager pointed to the building in the distance: "Look! It's just four, the fertilizer factory!"

"Oh, my mother! But I finally found it!" Cai Lin almost sat down on the ground: "It's too hard to find a place that doesn't go to the village and doesn't go to the store. The reason why the factory opened here is to steal sewage. Bar!"

The front door of the factory should have a road leading to the North Road Xincun Development Zone, but the villagers took them to take a shortcut to the back door of the factory.Most of the two-story building was covered by the barren soil slope, and the glass windows were all broken, and it was impossible to see anything in the black hole inside the factory building. The ivy had almost covered the brick wall on the sunny side.If "March [-]" and the Burmese killer had made an appointment here to hand over, it would indeed be an ideal place that is both concealed and easy to evacuate.

Bu Chonghua held down the excited Cai Lin: "Don't go there yet."

"what?"

"It's too hidden here. You can overlook Xiaobeizhuang and it's an ideal hiding place. Some serial murderers are used to lingering near the crime scene." Bu Chonghua whispered: "You first send the location back to the detachment and the jurisdiction At the police station, ask Liao Gang and the others to bring backup, and then we will raid and search collectively."

Only then did Cai Lin wake up: "Hey! Yes!"

Cai Lin quickly sent out the location, and then waited for a while, feeling a little anxious to urinate, so he lifted his trousers and went to the river to release water.The villager may have been dawdling to ask for more money, so he squatted under a tree and lit a cigarette, took a couple of puffs, got up and asked Bu Chonghua with a sneer, "Hey, are you the leader?"

Bu Chonghua said, "No."

"Oh, oh, no four." The villagers stood there smiling and rubbing their hands.

Along the way, Bu Chonghua felt something was wrong, but he couldn't tell what was wrong.He calculated the time in his mind, and felt that the car from the police station in the jurisdiction should be coming from the road in front of the factory. He was about to ask Cai Lin to come over and set off, when the villagers took out the 50 yuan in their pockets and looked at it, with a eager expression on their faces. He stopped talking, then turned around and walked towards Cai Lin who squatted by the river to wash his hands after draining the water.

This man was shirtless and wearing a vest, with a white towel for wiping sweat on his shoulders, his shoulders were tanned, and his hands were covered with calluses.Bu Chonghua subconsciously followed his back, and suddenly fixed on something, his pupils froze.

"——What's the matter, fellow?" Cai Lin shook the water drops from his hand to the river, squatted on the ground and raised his head to ask.

The villagers held the crumpled 50 yuan bill tightly, seemed a little embarrassed, and said with a naive smile: "I see, you will give me five or four yuan, but I have to walk all the way back, or else Again--"

"...Cai Lin," Bu Chonghua blurted out.

Immediately afterwards, the alarm bell rang crazily, and Bu Chonghua strode up: "Cai Lin! Be careful!—"

"?"

The upheaval happened at this moment. Cai Lin turned his head in a daze. He didn't understand what Bu Chonghua was calling him. Suddenly, a strong wind hit his head from behind.

The cold blade pressed his neck and pulled him back, his throat was cold and hot, and blood rolled down!

"—let him go!"

"Stop! Don't move!"

Bu Chonghua stopped hastily, and froze in mid-air with the gun raised in one hand.In the next second, the mobile phone buzzed twice and there was a new message. It was the Forensic Medicine Institute of the Municipal Bureau:

[@Everyone 52 cigarette butts have been identified, and the DNA isolated from sample 36 can be matched with a former criminal in the national criminal database, and is suspected of committing a major crime]

[Xiang Miao, male, 29 years old, accompanist of China-Myanmar tour guide, was sentenced to two years in prison for reselling ancient coins, and has now faxed the appraisal results to your bureau, please check! 】

"..." Bu Chonghua raised his head, his violently constricted pupils reflected Cai Lin, who was pinned to his throat with a knife a few meters away, and the "villager" holding the knife—the villagers took off all their simple and honest disguises, and became It was cold and ferocious, exactly the same as the photo of the ex-officials just received on the screen of the phone.

"Xiang Miao." Bu Chonghua paused, "Or should I call you...'Sanqi'?"

Cai Lin opened his eyes wide in disbelief, and then he heard laughter from behind, which seemed quite pleasant:

"As expected of the captain of the step detachment." Xiang Miao felt very interesting, and asked with a smile: "Can I ask for advice, I can even imitate my accent so well, where did you find anything wrong with me?"

The sky is getting darker and darker, and the river flows from the wilderness to the distance.Cai Lin's neck was bleeding, and his chest was heaving rapidly. Bu Chonghua held up his gun and dared not move. After a long while, he finally uttered a sentence: "...your towel."

"What?" Xiang Miao couldn't help being stunned.

"You have watched too many promotional videos. In reality, farmers who work in the fields will not be willing to carry towels of such a clean color and such a new state. And when a few villagers were talking in the field just now, you were the only one standing outside the crowd. I didn’t open my mouth to talk to others; we thought you were one of the villagers, but in fact you just went to talk to them in disguise to find out the situation. After you came out to lead the way and didn’t ask them to help you explain to your family, it’s inappropriate for a fellow villager Common sense means that you don't know each other at all." Bu Chonghua stared at Cai Lin's 30-centimeter-long folding knife in front of Cai Lin's throat, and every word was tense: "It was my negligence, obviously so There are many mistakes, but the abnormality was not discovered in time."

"..."

Xiang Miao's expression was almost stunned, and he couldn't help but sighed after a long time: "It is indeed worthy of the infantry detachment, if I can free my hands now, I might already be applauding for you."

"Don't embarrass the little policeman, Sanqi. He just came out to work for a meal, and it's not worth risking his life." Bu Chonghua pressed the trigger tightly with his index finger, his voice was overwhelmingly calm, without any hesitation or trembling : "As long as you let him go, I can let you go. The farther you go, the better. In the future, there will be a long way to go, and there will be opportunities to catch again."

Cai Lin had a severe sore throat, his vision went dark, and his mind went blank, but in an instant the conditioned reflex was about to struggle—let him go?

So many of us have put in so much painstaking effort, how could we still catch him after letting him go, how could we let him go? !

Bu Chonghua's roar exploded flatly: "Cai Lin! Don't move!"

With a puff, the tip of the knife entered the body, and mercilessly slowly cut a bloody mouth on Cai Lin's chest, and said coldly to Miao: "I told you not to move, didn't you hear?"

Cai Lin trembled in extreme fear, anger, and severe pain. Blood dripped on the ground, and a small puddle of blood quickly formed.The tip of Xiang Miao's knife pressed against his throat again, and after a few seconds of contemplation, he raised his eyes to look at Bu Chonghua, his pupils reflected the cold light of the knife: "Drop the phone, and throw the gun and bullets to me."

Bu Chonghua hesitated for a moment.

Xiang Miao laughed strangely: "Since you care so much about the lives of your subordinates, can you risk your own life for others?"

Bu Chonghua didn't say a word, tried his best to suppress his breath, and looked into Cai Lin's eyes.

Cai Lin's clothes were covered in blood, his ears were ringing, and his lips were trembling rapidly.He felt that half of his body was numb, and he opened his mouth after several times of effort, and silently made a mouth shape: "No——"

Don't listen to the gangsters, don't be controlled by the enemy under any circumstances. This is obviously the principle that we were repeatedly ordered by the captain on the first day we entered the detachment. Have you forgotten it yourself? !

The next moment he heard Bu Chonghua utter a word hoarsely: "Yes."

Immediately afterwards, he raised his hand and smashed it without hesitation, and the phone shattered into pieces!

Even Xiang Miao didn't expect the progress to be so fast and smooth. For a moment, he couldn't believe his eyes, and raised his eyebrows in surprise.Immediately, he saw Bu Chonghua slap the safety on the bullet, turn the Type 92 police gun upside down, and walk forward step by step while holding the barrel——

Ten steps, nine steps, eight steps.

"...don't..." Cai Lin made a desperate voice as thin as a gnat, "don't give it to him, don't..."

Bu Chonghua's stern face seemed to be covered with a layer of ice.

——At this moment, the sound of a car engine coming from far and near suddenly came from a distance, and the lights of the cars at the end of the abandoned concrete road at the front gate of the factory lit up one after another. It was a police car from the district police station!

The brigade police arrived!

Xiang Miao yelled, "Damn!"

All changes happen at this moment:

Bu Chonghua threw a backhand, and the police gun spun and bounced. He caught the handle of the gun with a snap and pulled the pick, and pulled the slide with the other hand, and the bullet was loaded;

Xiang Miao slashed at Cai Lin's neck fiercely. The latter writhed and struggled frantically. When the blood burst everywhere, the two of them overlapped and turned back——

Bu Chonghua fired at the sky without hesitation, bang bang bang bang bang! !

Five bullets were fired in succession, and the loud noise cut through the night. The policemen in the car in the distance turned their heads alertly at the same time, and shouted one after another: "There!" "There is a gunshot!"

"Drive there quickly! Notify the command center to call for reinforcements!!"

thump!thump!

——At the same time as the gunshot rang out, Xiang Miao had already blocked Cai Lin in front of him, and both of them fell into the surging river.Before the spray that was half the height of a person fell, Bu Chonghua threw away the empty gun, stepped forward without hesitation, and jumped into the turbulent river around the city!
