Don't follow the rules

The living room suddenly fell silent.

Looking out from the clear glass window, there seemed to be an unsettling wind blowing faintly on the always clear sea, setting off waves as high as hills in the distance, layer upon layer, gradually approaching the cruise ship.

Although the wind carrying the sea water has not yet really arrived on the cruise ship, it is enough to make people feel its pressure. In the cabin, which is still calm at the moment, waves are already secretly rippling.

Tick ​​tick
The second hand of the clock moves across the dial, clear and regular, just like Tan Ai's heartbeat at this moment.

Geng Xun tapped his knuckles on the table with the rhythm of the pointer and asked again: "What strap?"

Tan Ai swallowed, his lips trembling uncontrollably.

"Tell me the truth, young man, in all the information currently disclosed by our police, there has never been any mention of the murder weapon." Geng Xun gently threw the pile of curled-up information in his hand on the table and motioned to the other party. You can read it at will.

Geng Xun, who took over the tempo of the negotiations, spoke with very calm emotions and no deliberate sense of oppression at all.

Tan Ai knew that he was quick to talk and had just a face-to-face confrontation with Geng Xun, and he was already completely passive. Moreover, he had never received any interrogation training, and he could not restrain the guilty expressions and small movements that kept popping up at this moment.

Geng Xun did not directly expose Tan Ai's panic. Interrogating the suspect did not need to make the scene more embarrassing. He always attacked the other party's psychological defense.

"According to Chi Nian's explanation, she had a quarrel with her husband, so she went to the wine cellar to pick up two bottles of wine to relieve stress. Meeting the unconscious deceased was purely accidental. She did not carry anything other than a mobile phone with her at the time." Geng Xun spread out his Hands "I think this statement is very reasonable."

"I...I didn't bring anything with me..." Tan Ai wiped the cold sweat from his forehead.

"I didn't ask you what you brought, so don't rush to defend yourself~" Geng Xun smiled, "Aren't we discussing Miss Chi Nian's murder process now?"

"Oh, yes, yes, it's Chi Nian." Tan Ai picked up Geng Xun's words in a panic.

Geng Xun unhurriedly opened his previous confession for Tan Ai: "Here, you said that you saw Chi Nian stuffing people into a garbage truck, and when you went to get them, the deceased was already dead. .”

"That's right." Tan Ai nodded.

"That's strange." Geng Xun pretended to be puzzled. "Then how did you leave the skin flakes that belong to you between the nails of the deceased?"

Tan Ai subconsciously covered his forearm.

buzz
Geng Xun's cell phone vibrated slightly on the desktop, indicating that there was new news.

Ning Yao: [I have a deal here that is not illegal, is Captain Geng interested?]

Geng Xun glanced at Tan Ai, who returned to his previous state of silence and passive resistance, and then withdrew his eyes: [Tell me about it]

Ning Yao: [I will help you find the murder weapon, and you can introduce me to the boss who crushed the rules I mentioned before]

Geng Xun: […First of all, I don’t know such a big boss, and secondly, I’m not allowed to go into the sea]

Ning Yao: [Is your interrogation stuck again? Therefore, physical evidence is an indispensable part of convicting Tan Ai]

Geng Xun: [I know it well]

Ning Yao: [Don’t always carry it hard, it’s not shameful for a man to bow his head]

"Silly beep." Geng Xun couldn't help but cursed and threw the phone aside, frightening Tan Ai.

The phone was thrown away, the screen face down on the soft carpet, and the chat interface flashed with newly received message prompts:

[If you don’t say anything, I’ll take it as if you agreed~]

……

[It is a backpack strap that is worn diagonally across a briefcase] An Han was typing on the screen. Ning Yao squatted outside the door of Tan Ai's reception room and picked his feet: "By the way, is he carrying a bag? I didn't pay attention at all."

An Han: [Yes]

[When we first met Tan Ai, we knocked over the documents he was holding. At that time, you were probably only focused on picking up the folders]

Although the murder weapon was roughly locked, Ning Yao couldn't bring up the excitement of discovering new clues: "It's useless, this guy must have thrown the bag into the sea."

An Han: [Yes, he must have grasped this point, so he dared not let go after leaking the truth. It was because the police could not find any physical evidence even if they restored the case process]

Ning Yao gritted his teeth: "We must go to the sea."

An Han: [Don’t be impulsive, he can’t throw all the traces into the sea, there are still clues on the ship]

Ning Yao: "The police have professional evidence collectors, but they haven't even been able to find it. Why do you think we laymen can find it?"

An Han was silent.

"So we have to go to the sea, get the evidence, solve the case, and then lift the restrictions, so that we can..." Confirm Chunyu's safety with his own eyes.

【What can you do? 】An Han asked.

Ning Yao touched his nose: "We still don't know the true purpose of Du Jingxiu and Rao Ze, and the high seas auction will start soon. If something happens then, we can only do it if the restrictions of the rules are lifted. Have the ability to protect yourself.”

An Han: [The commander has told us that we don’t have to conflict with Du Jingxiu head-on, we just need to collect information, safety first]

Ning Yao: "I cannot place my safety on the kindness of the enemy. My sense of security must come from my own sufficient firepower."

An Han sighed: [I can’t hold you back, but looking at Captain Geng’s attitude, it’s still too dangerous to go into the sea]

"Fear comes from the unknown. Wouldn't it be nice to find someone to figure out the situation in the sea?" Ning Yao seemed very relaxed.

An Han: [Geng Xun is unwilling to speak. Who else knows this kind of information? 】

Ning Yao snapped his fingers: "Call the almighty Xiaotang!"

An Han raised his head and shouted at the top of his voice: "Is Xin Cheng back?"

"Here we come!" Xin Cheng appeared happily, "What do you want from me?"

"Specifically, I'm not looking for you, I'm looking for your Assistant Xiaotang."

An Han raised his glasses on the bridge of his nose: "There is something wrong with the sea. The police seem to know something, but they are unwilling to disclose it to us, so I would like to ask if your 'Bao Wenqiu' can find out the information about this sea area - no Popularization of marine knowledge.”

"No problem, I'll cover it for him!" Xin Cheng agreed, patting his chest.

Assistant Tang on the side couldn't even get a word in: "You're bragging, can you please stop taking me with you?"

"What?" Xin Cheng was surprised, "Can't you find out? When did you become so lazy?"

"It's not like I can't find it..." Assistant Tang was unhappy with Xin Cheng's questioning, and immediately opened his notebook and started to contact him, typing words with his fingertips, vowing to prove his ability to work.

Ning Yao had already left the Crystal Palace building and took advantage of the night to step onto the deck where the sea breeze was roaring.

"Are you sure?" he asked softly.

The small white sailboat slipped out of his trouser legs and floated steadily at half a person's height. The green gem on the bow exuded a lustrous luster in the darkness: "Don't underestimate the boat, Hun Dan!"
