Chapter 76

Xiahe Village is an urban village in the process of demolition and reconstruction.

The people in the village have already moved out, and the houses have been ripped apart. There are broken walls and tiles everywhere, and it looks extremely desolate from a distance.

Gu Xi walked towards the center of the village along a small path that he could barely recognize.

The soles of her feet were already injured, and the ground was extremely uneven, with sharp stones hitting her feet from time to time.

The wound on the sole of the foot opened again, and she could clearly feel that the bandages had been soaked, and she didn't know whether it was because of sweat or blood.

She stopped to take a breath, and the invisible bluetooth device worn in her right ear rang: "Did you find anything?"

"Why did you choose such a ghostly place? There's no one here." She looked around and complained.

"Understood, our people will follow behind, you must be careful."

When Gu Xi heard this sentence, he felt a little more at ease.

The development of the matter was completely beyond her expectation.

Cheng Fei went to the police, originally wanting the police to come forward and get the ring back.

Unexpectedly, the police got a general idea of ​​what happened, and after checking the number that the girl gave Gu Xi, they concluded that the person who asked Gu Xi to meet in Xiahe Village was probably the person involved in the rape and murder case a few days ago. murderer.

Originally, he hid well, but unexpectedly because of this incident, he showed up again. This is a good time to arrest him.

So the police want Gu Xi to cooperate and lure that person out.

Cheng Fei originally disagreed, but the police said they wanted to ask her opinion, so Cheng Fei brought two policemen out to meet her.

She was stunned for a moment when she heard the situation, but after thinking about it, she wanted to get the ring back, and the police were there, which was much safer than herself, so she basically agreed without any hesitation. down.

Cheng Fei tried to dissuade her repeatedly but failed to stop her. In the end, she was still worried and waited in a hidden place with the police.

The place where the man and she agreed to meet was a well in the center of the village.

When Gu Xi walked to the well, it was already dark. She looked around, but found no one.

Just as he was about to take out his mobile phone and call that person again, he heard the sound of rolling gravel not far away.

She immediately raised her head vigilantly, turned on the flashlight of her mobile phone, followed the sound and saw a man walking out from behind the pile of rubble.

He looked about 40 to [-] years old, with dark skin and a strong figure. He looked at her with particularly malicious eyes, and he didn't seem to be a person of serious background.

Compared with him, Xue Wan and He Yan are really good people.

"I didn't expect you to have the guts to come here." The man walked to the well, got closer to see Gu Xi's appearance clearly, his eyes lit up.

"The ring is in your hand, of course I want to come." She stretched out her hand to him calmly, "Where is my ring?"

The man squinted his eyes and looked at her, grinning and grinning: "This is a good thing, I think it looks like a real diamond."

He took out the ring and twisted it between his fingers: "If you want to take it back, you have to exchange it with me."

"Then what do you want?" Gu Xi's lips curved into a slight smile.

The light of the flashlight made her skin extremely fair, and the man greedily licked his lips: "I can still consider it if I exchange it with you."

"Me?" Gu Xi laughed softly, "Okay, but before that, I have to look at the ring first. What if you cheated me with a fake one?"

"Then you just come and have a look." The man stood still by the well, waiting for her to pass, "You'd better not play any tricks, otherwise, I'll just throw this ring down."

Gu Xi didn't answer, walked over slowly, and took the ring from him.

She stretched out her fingertips to rub the inside of the ring, and took a closer look with the light of the flashlight of her mobile phone. There was the word yan&xi in cursive script on it, so it could not be a fake.

She secretly breathed a sigh of relief, her eyes moved slightly, she clenched her fists tightly and wanted to run away.

But the man had been on guard for a long time, he squeezed her wrist, and broke it hard, causing her wrist to lose strength due to the pain.

Taking advantage of her letting go, he snatched the ring back.

The policemen who had been hiding behind Gu Xi also rushed out at this time, and surrounded the man.

"Don't move! Let him go!"

The man smiled coldly, stretched out his hand and grabbed Gu Xi's neck tightly, looked down at her and sneered, "You think I don't know about your little trick? So what if I call the police, I use you as a shield , I can still retreat completely!"

As he spoke, he held her back step by step.

Gu Xi looked down at the ground and saw a sharp broken brick under his feet. When he was about to step on it, she suddenly lifted her foot and stepped on his instep hard.

Taking advantage of the man's pain and bending over, she grabbed his arm hard, put her shoulder against his body, borrowed force suddenly, and threw him to the ground hard with a crisp over-the-shoulder throw.

The surrounding police immediately rushed forward and suppressed the man.

The captain in charge of this operation also came over to praise her: "I really didn't expect you to have such a good skill, have you ever learned self-defense?"

Gu Xi shook his head, looked down at the man who was pinned down on the ground, as if he hadn't recovered yet.

Cheng Fei walked behind her and patted her on the shoulder lightly. She was so startled that she trembled and immediately dodged away.

Seeing clearly that it was Cheng Fei, she came back to her senses: "Sorry, brother... I haven't realized it yet."

"It's okay." Cheng Fei asked with a smile, "Did he scare you just now?"

"A little bit." She nodded, remembering that the ring was still in the man's hand, she quickly walked over and asked, "Where's my ring?"

The man sneered: "I said, as long as you dare to call the police, I will throw the ring away!"

A group of policemen began to search his body, but found nothing. One of the policemen hesitated and said, "I think I saw him throw the ring into the well just now."

The position where he was lying in ambush before was right behind the man, and when he saw the man holding Gu Xi back to pass the well, he threw something into the well.

He didn't see what it was at the time, but now that he thought about it, it was most likely a ring.

When the man heard this, his expression immediately became ferocious, and he wanted to struggle but was suppressed by everyone.

His reaction made Gu Xi confirm that the ring was really thrown into the well by him.

She hurried to the well, took out her mobile phone and turned on the flashlight to look into the well.

It was a dry well, not very deep, and there was a thick layer of dead branches and fallen leaves and domestic garbage under it. It was really hard to see where the ring fell.

"Do you have any rope with you?" Gu Xi asked as he took off the cumbersome costumes on his body.

A group of police officers hurriedly turned around to avoid her, and one of them ran to the car over there to get her a rope.

As soon as she took off one of the outer clothes, Cheng Fei immediately came over and stopped her: "Don't be so nonsense! If you want to get off, I should go down."
