Chapter 32 Drugs, Lies, and Pranks (13)
Yan Su glanced at her angrily, but his heart fell silent again.She tilted her head towards the outside, from his angle she couldn't see her face, but she could see her small white ears and delicate neck like jade.The slender collarbone looks more distinct and delicate because the head is tilted sideways.

Yan Su's heart skipped a beat inexplicably, and he slowly came back to his senses, thinking, just go to sleep and call her when you arrive.

In such a quiet night, he drove attentively and silently, and she slept soundly; in fact, it was not bad.

After a long while, Zhen Ai slowly opened her eyes, which were dark and calm. Looking at the boundless night outside the window, her tone was a kind of laziness that didn't fit her indifferent expression: "I originally planned to go out to play, and I will go back after the wedding is over. .Well, there’s still a lot of work to do, so I’ll be back tomorrow.”

Yan Su was slightly caught off guard, but he could understand.

She is not an ordinary student, and she still has a lot of work to do, so he didn't hold back: "Well, good. I'll contact you when I finish this case and return to NYT."

Zhen Ai stared quietly at the black night, then slowly closed her eyes.

When I got home, I found that Owen was there, and he was still awake.

Zhen Ai looked very sleepy, saying that she would get up early and leave New York tomorrow, so she hurried upstairs.

Owen watched Zhen Ai go upstairs, and then sat down on the high stool weakly:

"Running around for a long time, I didn't find any useful information. I really didn't expect that the confidentiality of Zhen Ai's file is so high. I spent a lot of effort, but I didn't find anything."

Yan Su stood by the cupboard making coffee, and when he heard the words, he raised his eyes calmly, remembering the last time he asked a friend from the CIA to check "The Devil's Son".

After a while, he lowered his eyes again, and continued to carefully adjust the ratio of coffee beans and water, with a dull tone: "Owen, if the anti-reconnaissance above detects your behavior, have you thought about the consequences?"

Owen was silent, of course he thought of the consequences.

But the scarlet letter on the mirror in Jiangxin's dormitory has been grinding in his heart, and he is always worried that someone has found Zhen Ai's whereabouts.In just a few years, so many agents have been changed, no matter how powerful the other party is, the speed of finding them is too fast, as if Zhen Ai has a tracking device on her body.

But this is just Owen’s worry. He didn’t want to make Yan Su or Zhen Ai uneasy by saying it, so he changed the topic: “Zhen Ai’s file is empty. But I still found a little bit about her through the information of the previous agents.” thing."

Yan Su's hands paused, and he listened with bated breath.

Owen supported his forehead: "I didn't even know she had an older brother."

Yan Su Momo started to make coffee.I already knew it. Hey, don't you usually communicate with each other?

Yan Su casually asked: "Where is her brother?" He remembered the password and the candy house she said, "Let me guess, her brother was locked up in some mysterious place and was tortured?"

"I'm not sure." Owen rubbed his eyes, "I only know that her brother's incident gave her a huge stimulus, and she escaped from the original organization."

Yan Su leaned against the marble table, held a glass of water, and drank slowly.

There was a slight gurgle from the coffee pot.

Owen rubbed his hair in boredom: "I found out that Zhen Ai used to call that organization SPA——Socialpath Association (anti-social organization), but I searched all over the Internet and written materials, and there is no such a huge organization at all. A couple of small leagues that don't make a difference."

Yan Su's hand holding the glass stopped, SPA?He also thought it was an organization that didn't exist.

The coffee was already boiling, exuding a faint mellow aroma.

"Go to sleep, you have to send Zhen Ai back tomorrow." Yan Su turned around and poured coffee.

Owen got up with slumped shoulders, walked a few steps and turned back: "Do you want to work overtime?"

"En." The mist of coffee curled up, covering his unpredictable eyebrows and eyes.

Zhen Ai was dressed in white and sat in the laboratory observing the microscope.

She didn't sleep well last night and got up too early during the day, but she has long been used to it, and she won't be in a bad mood.On the way back, she also received a text message from Yan Su, saying that thanks to her reminder, he found out that there was the first deceased, Sindy Lin.Holding the text message at that time, she was a little dazed, hint?Is that sentence really a love letter?
The research on Anti-HNT-DL anti-virus serum has made progress. The last batch of mice survived for 24 hours, but the death condition was still miserable.

Zhen Ai vaguely felt that the research on this batch of viruses would soon see the light of day.She was excited and lost, and after the excitement was lingering confusion.

It seems that her life has always been like this, one virus after another, research after research, without end and end, until she died.She doesn't know anything, she can only do research, which is the only value of her existence.

Heh, thinking about it this way, the organization that protects her now is actually the same as the organization she grew up in before, just using her.

Zhen Ai's hand trembled, she actually lost her mind at work.

She froze for a moment, then slowly got up and went out to drink water.

Ryan was also busy in a white coat. When he saw Zhen Ai, he grinned: "Ai, I feel that your experiment is about to succeed. When this research is over, you can apply for a vacation and go out with your relatives and friends."

Zhen Ai can't recover, so she's on vacation?
She remembered her mother saying that rest makes people lazy and weak-willed; only the weak need rest.

After so many years, the real rest seems to be only in the last few days, and Yan Su attended a concert in New York to attend a wedding. In these short days, her head was not filled with various virus data and serum antibodies.

As a result, I was distracted and absent-minded on the first day of work when I came back.

It seems that what my mother said was right.Rest makes her unsteady.

Besides, she has no relatives or friends to play with her.

"It's free, I don't have any particular place I want to go." Zhen Ai turned and left with a smile, glanced at Ryan's water glass, and saw the initials RA of Ryan's name engraved on it.

Zhen Ai didn't pay attention at first, and walked a few steps forward, but suddenly a light flashed in her mind, and she was stunned.

People who died in this case, Sindy Lin (Lin Xing), Lola Roberts (Lola), Harry Parker (Parker), Anna Hope (Anna).
Their initials, can't be such a coincidence, can they?
She must hurry back to New York immediately...

When Yan Su was frying eggs in the morning, he almost broke two eggs, only to realize that Zhen Ai was not by his side today.He silently thought that the case would be closed soon, and when he went back to find her, his cell phone rang.

Such a tacit understanding?

He was taken aback, but it was Police Officer Jones who called, saying, "Qi Mo surrendered himself."

Yan Su rushed to the police station immediately.

Accompanied by a lawyer, Qi Mo sat in the interrogation room to take notes.His parents were standing in the corridor crying, and it was obvious that they had brought their children to surrender.

On the other side of the glass window, the light was dim, Qi Mo's face was pale, very quiet, and very decadent, but his mind was clear, and the effects of the drugs had probably passed.

The police officer followed the procedure and asked, "Qi Mo, are you conscious now?"

He nodded: "It's very clear." However, he looked extraordinarily desperate, as if something had collapsed.A young man who is only 20 years old has vicissitudes in his eyes like an old man.

"What are you going to surrender?"

He lowered his eyes, then raised them again, very ashamed and painful: "I'm sorry, I killed Anna."

Outside the window, Yan Su calmly observed Qi Mo's expression, and concluded that he wasn't lying.

"Why did you kill her?"

"I..." The most difficult question was answered, but he couldn't explain it clearly, "I don't remember, maybe it was a quarrel, a moment of excitement, and accidentally killed someone." He scratched his head hard, trying to remember, but couldn't. stand up.

This action fell into Yan Su's eyes - still not lying.

The questioning police officer was thinking about something, and asked: "Qi Mo, you are sober at the moment, but as far as we know, you were mentally unstable during the time of the crime, so your memory is not accurate." The police officer was silent After a while, he said, "To protect you, we advise you not to impose charges on yourself, and not to recall something that you may remember wrongly. Whether you are really the murderer or not is the duty of the police to investigate."

Yan Su was very satisfied with the police officer's performance.But Qi Mo disagreed, he flung himself on the table, clutching the table with his hands tightly, his eyes full of horror: "I don't remember why I killed her, nor how I killed her, but I remember that I carved words on her body. I'm sure I saw it. I slashed her back with a knife!"

Now, the interrogation room was quiet inside and out.

"Catch me!" Qi Mo cried bitterly, "I'm afraid I've become crazy, I'm afraid I will continue to kill people!"

Outside, Officer Jones was completely at a loss: "If he doesn't remember the process, he can't close the case."

Yan Su ignored him, thinking about Qi Mo's words carefully.Everything he said was sincere, but the last one sounded oddly odd.Saw?Why do you say you saw it?
The forensic officer brought a photo of the fan blade that hanged Anna.On the dusty leaves, there was a big man's left palm print.

The liaison officer said that because only Kelly was left-handed among the few male students, he was going to be summoned first for comparison.

Yan Su took a look, looked away, and asked, "Ask who Qi Molin Xing is. I searched for information yesterday and found that these students belonged to a squash club when they were in high school four years ago. At that time, there was a man named Lin Xing in the club." The girl died of asthma. I suspect that the five-pointed 'star' and 'medicine' in the message are all related to her."

Jones praised Yan Su, but when he saw Yan Su's cold eyes, he quickly shut up and asked someone to ask.But at this time, Qi Mo, who was crying bitterly, had another mental breakdown and was unable to answer normally.

Yan Su looked at the ambulance that carried Qi Mo away, pondered for a moment, then got in the car and left.

Daisy didn't sleep well all night, and didn't feel a little sleepy until dawn. It was already afternoon when she woke up after having a nightmare.Looking at the sunshine in the room, she remembered that the five people who were alive had made an appointment to watch the basketball game.

Everything changed overnight.

Perhaps, as early as many years ago, it changed?

She was staring in the mirror in a daze when suddenly the doorbell rang.She was startled, and after a long time of astonishment, she went to the door mirror to look out.It's someone I know.

She cut her hair, opened the door, and looked up at the tall figure opposite: "Why... you, what are you doing here?"

Yan Su was still wearing a windbreaker, with the black collar standing upright, making his fair face quiet and indifferent.

He looked down at her, very bluntly: "Ask the truth, Miss Daisy. As I said, no matter how well you pretend, I can tell whether you are lying or not."

Daisy's face turned pale, but she calmed down instead: "Oh? But I really don't understand what you are here for. Are you here to ask questions? Do you have the right? I want to find Li..."

"I'm not a policeman," Yan Su interrupted her staidly, "and you know very well that the reason I came here to look for you is because you are... the number one suspect in Anna's murder."

Daisy was shocked, and stared at Yan Su in astonishment. Her hand was clutching the door frame, pinching it white. She struggled for a long time, but what she said was: "Mr. Yan Su, you don't know that your words are hurtful, very Is it too much?"

Yan Su was taken aback for a moment, his delicate face gradually became silent, thinking, if Zhen Ai was here, she would definitely stare at him now.

He thought for a while, and felt that he should be friendly.

Therefore, he coughed lightly, and said unhurriedly: "Miss Daisy, I came to you because based on various judgments, my rational reasoning has determined that you have a high possibility of causing the air Unable to reach Anna's lungs, resulting in airway obstruction, carbon dioxide retention in the body, hypoxia in various organs of the body, cell metabolism disorders, and eventually the heart stops beating. "

He breathed out: "In order not to hurt others, I used a more tactful way."

The tone was still complacent, as if what he said really played a tactful and soothing role.

Daisy was already in a daze, looking at Yan Su incredulously like an alien.

Yan Su frowned slightly, her expression obviously showed no signs of soothing, could it be that her well-intentioned attempt just now failed?
A faint trace of frustration flashed in his heart, and then dissatisfaction, women are really unimaginable, Zhen Ai is the best, only her clever head can understand him.

Hey, she is very smart, why didn't he find out?
But that's not the point right now.

He withdrew his thoughts, looked at Daisy indifferently, and explained: "Oh, as we all know, I'm not sociable."

At the end, he added: "Even so, I'm here to persuade you to surrender, with words."

Daisy turned his head several times before he understood what he said thoroughly.She was furious, panicked even more, and slammed the door shut reflexively.

Ke Yansu reacted quickly, and entered the room with a flash of figure.

Daisy was trembling with anger, and rushed to grab the phone: "I will call the police!"

"Qi Mo surrendered himself," Yan Su put his hands in his pockets, "In addition, Kelly has to go to jail with him."

Daisy froze.

"Qi Mo was mentally disturbed and thought he had killed someone." Yan Su said, "You don't want to drag Qi Mo down, and you don't want to wrong him, so you called him after the murder that night, exposed the body, and tried to stand by him when you testified later. That side. You don't even want to hurt him, let alone Kelly who helped you dispose of the body?"

Daisy was shocked, her eyes widened in horror, but her neck was stiff and she refused to turn her head.Why did he know, like he was watching the whole process?
She still didn't say a word, carrying it tightly.

Yan Su walked up to her and handed her his mobile phone: "This was found by the forensic staff on the blade of the ceiling fan."

There was a palm print on the thick dust.

"Clothes and ropes are not easy to carry fingerprints. You will also pay attention to other places when cleaning. Only when you tie the rope to the ceiling fan, the top of the blade is invisible and easy to ignore. And this is a man's handprint. He is a man. Naturally, you won't be allowed to climb that high to tie the rope. Right, Daisy, he takes good care of you."

Daisy stared at the phone screen, gritted her teeth, tears rolled in her eyes.

"Kelly has been sent to the police station now. With this evidence, even if it is not a capital crime, he will be in prison for more than ten years." Yan Su took back his mobile phone, "And Qi Mo, he was mentally disturbed and always thought that he killed Anna .”

After hearing these words, Daisy finally couldn't bear it anymore and closed her eyes in pain.Her tears fell one by one like broken beads: "I killed Anna, and it has nothing to do with Qi Mo, let alone Kelly. He is not an accomplice, and he is not even at the scene. He just Treating me as a friend, he is very loyal. It was I who harmed him, and it was my fault."

Yan Su stood aside and stopped talking.

He came here because he knew very well that with Daisy's kindness, Kelly would not let Kelly suffer for her.

Daisy sat weakly on the sofa, choked up:

"Anna asked me to meet at 5 o'clock, and I happened to be a little early in the neighborhood. As a result, I accidentally ran into Anna putting medicine in a Coke in the school garden. I didn't expect that the bottle of Coke was for me.

After we met, we talked about the dead Laura and our former friends, maybe because of too much psychological pressure, I had a big fight with her.She got some rope out of nowhere and we fought.In the end I don't know how it happened.When I woke up, she fell to the ground and died.

I was so scared, I ran away quickly.But the police were sure to catch me, and I was so scared I didn't know what to do, so I called Kelly.Kelly said that even if he surrendered, he would definitely go to jail.

He said that my personality was too weak, and I would definitely be bullied in prison.Although we would quarrel and he would scold me on weekdays, he always regarded me as a good friend. He helped me clean up the scene and pretended to be hanged.He said that I had no motive to kill, and the police would not suspect me.In this way, it will become an unsolved unsolved case just like two years ago. "

After Yan Su listened quietly, he answered without expression: "Next, you all return to the scene and move her to the second classroom."

"Yes. There were no curtains in the first classroom, and Kelly was afraid of being seen. When he went to the second classroom, he found a lot of dry ice and water. Kelly said it was great, it could cool the body and confuse the time of death. He also said ,"

Daisy supported her forehead, her lips were trembling, "She said that Anna was going to kill me...I really don't know why. I just told her that I might turn myself in..."

She covered her mouth and cried.

Yan Su looked at her speechlessly, without questioning her.
