[Section [-]: Chasing the murderer in Yangcheng]

Early the next morning, as soon as the library opened, Tang Feng, Zhao Yong and Jiang Yimin rushed to the library together.Jiang Yimin called the administrator of the library and opened locker No. 71. Tang Feng and Zhao Yong took a closer look and found that there was nothing in the locker, followed by locker No. [-], which was still empty. "Could it be that they took the lead again?" Zhao Yong said suspiciously, but immediately he ordered to the administrator, "Open all the lockers." The administrator hesitated for a moment, looked at Jiang Yimin, Jiang Yimin nodded and said , "Open all!"

With a "click", the administrator opened all the lockers, and Zhao Yong, Tang Feng and Jiang Yimin checked each locker one by one.After working for a long time, they didn't find anything they were interested in, let alone the mysterious jade screen.

The number of people in the library gradually increased, and Zhao Yong and Jiang Yimin went to the monitoring room to check the surveillance video from last night.Tang Feng stood in the corridor, recalling what happened the night before, every scene and every detail is still vivid in his mind.What exactly did Liang Yunjie put in the locker?Could it really be a jade screen?

"Tang Feng, come in." Zhao Yong called Tang Feng into the monitoring room, interrupting Tang Feng's thoughts.

Tang Feng followed Zhao Yong into the monitoring room. On the screen, a man in a white T-shirt with a bag on his back was sneaking into the bag depository.Zhao Yongyi pointed to the man in white on the screen, and said, "Tang Feng, this man slipped into the locker office of the library at 3:26 this morning, and took some things from locker 71."

"Deposit box No. 71? It seems that Liang Yunjie really stored very important things in it, so he never forgets it when he is dying." Tang Feng firmly believed in his original judgment.

"I think there are two possibilities. One is that the thief happened to steal Liang Yunjie's important things because locker No. 71 is far away from the camera; the second is not so simple. The thief knew in advance that locker No. Therefore, he sneaked into the library overnight and took away the things. Moreover, from the point of view of the modus operandi, this person is still a master of the beam, and there are almost no traces left at the scene, just...just because No. 71 The locker is far away from the camera, so it is hard to see what this person took away." Zhao Yong said regretfully.

"Tang Feng, do you think this man in white is the one who killed Liang Yunjie last night?" Jiang Yimin asked.

Tang Feng stared at the screen for a long time, then shook his head: "No, this man in white is not the one who killed Liang Yunjie last night."

"Have you looked carefully?" Zhao Yong asked.

Tang Feng replied with certainty: "It's definitely not that person. This person is short in stature, and the person who killed Liang Yunjie, although I can't see his face clearly, is tall and tall."

Zhao Yong and Jiang Yimin stared at the face of the man in white on the screen for a long time. This was the only facial image of the man in white captured by the camera, and Zhao Yong had already maximized the image.In the end, Jiang Yimin made a decision: "Whether this person is the murderer of Liang Yunjie or not, he must have taken important things from locker No. 71. Let's catch him first. I'll arrange it right away. Face, I promise to catch this person for you within...within three days."

When Jiang Yimin finally said "within three days", he hesitated for a while. Both Tang Feng and Zhao Yong knew that in a metropolis like Guangzhou with a population of tens of millions and frequent movement of people, they wanted to catch this man within three days. Man, easier said than done?However, that's all for now.Zhao Yongchong nodded to Jiang Yimin, and photos of men in white clothes were sent to every policeman below.

Leaving the library, Zhao Yong said he was going to do something and asked Tang Feng and Jiang Yimin to go back to the police station and wait for him.As soon as Tang Feng followed Jiang Yimin back to the police station, Jiang Yimin received a call from Director Liu of the Forensic Medicine Center.During the phone call, Director Liu told Jiang Yimin: "Liang Yunjie's family members have come to collect Liang Yunjie's body and will cremate the body."

Jiang Yimin became anxious when he heard this, and shouted at Director Liu on the other end of the phone: "The case has not been solved yet, how can the body be cremated? You first stabilize the Liang family, I will go there in a while, you must wait for me!"

After speaking, Jiang Yimin dragged Tang Feng to the forensic center.

Arriving at the forensic center, Jiang Yimin hurried up the stairs of the forensic center.Tang Feng followed Jiang Yimin, just walking with his head down, he didn't want to bump into a beautiful woman on the stairs on the second floor, and the beautiful woman scolded: "You man, why don't you look at the road when you walk!"

"I'm sorry!" Tang Feng quickly apologized.He stared at the beautiful woman in front of him, and couldn't think of any other words except to keep saying "I'm sorry".The beauty ignored him, let out a soft "hum", turned her head and went down the stairs.

The beauty had already gone down the stairs, but Tang Feng was still standing on the stairs, staring at the place where the beauty disappeared. He suddenly felt that this beauty seemed to have been seen somewhere before... "Do you know this girl?" Jiang Yimin reminded Tang Feng, Tang Feng came back to his senses, shook his head and said, "No... I don't know you!"

The two stopped talking, walked into the gloomy morgue together, and found Director Liu of the Forensic Medicine Center.When Director Liu saw Jiang Yimin, he said, "Why did you come here? The Liang family just left."

"What about Liang Yunjie's body?" Tang Feng asked anxiously.

"It's been cremated!" Director Liu replied calmly.

"Didn't I tell you to wait until I come?" Jiang Yimin complained.

"I can't help it. This is the meaning of the higher-ups." Director Liu shrugged and left the morgue.

"Why are the Liang family so eager to cremate Liang Yunjie?" Tang Feng asked Jiang Yimin.

Jiang Yimin looked solemn, and said, "I'm thinking about this too."

The two thought for a long time, but couldn't figure it out. Disappointed, they were about to leave the forensic center, but they ran into Zhao Yong who was rushing in the corridor.Seeing Zhao Yong, Jiang Yimin first reported to Zhao Yong that Liang Yunjie's body had been cremated.Zhao Yong frowned after listening, and after a long time, he said slowly: "It seems that this case is getting more and more complicated."

"What do you mean?" Tang Feng and Jiang Yimin asked.

"Look, this is something our people salvaged from the lower reaches of the Pearl River." Zhao Yong took Tang Feng and Jiang Yimin into a room and showed them a black leather trench coat and a navy blue coat. hat.

"This is the clothes that man was wearing last night, and this hat. It's so hot now, how could that man wear such a leather trench coat and a hat? It's really weird!" Tang Feng recognized it at a glance. in this outfit.

Zhao Yong frowned and said, "So this case is getting more and more complicated. Think about it, if the thief who went to the library to pick up things early this morning, if he wasn't an ordinary thief, he was just for the No. 71 locker. How did he know that there were important things in the locker? There is only one possibility—the man in black who killed Liang Yunjie last night asked him to come and take away the things in the locker."

"So, did the man in black really jump into the Pearl River last night? What about others? Did he drown?" Tang Feng interjected.

"The killer's body was also salvaged, but...but he didn't drown."

"Didn't you drown?" Tang Feng and Jiang Yimin said in surprise at the same time.

Zhao Yong explained: "We found an obvious wound on the abdomen of the corpse, and now we are conducting an autopsy on the corpse, so I also rushed here."

"It's so complicated, yet another killer has emerged?" Tang Feng asked in shock.

Zhao Yong and Jiang Yimin didn't say anything more, and all three fell silent.

After a while, Director Liu called everyone into the dissection room, and saw the body of a middle-aged man lying upright on the dissection table. Tang Feng noticed that the man's temples were already gray, and he should be at least 50 years old.Sure enough, the results of Director Liu's autopsy confirmed Tang Feng's judgment: "The deceased was over 50 years old, and he was very strong before his death, without any disease; the corpse had signs of corruption and green spots, so I judge that the time of death should be more than [-] years old. Hours; the deadly wound of the deceased was this knife wound on the abdomen, which was wounded by a sharp instrument such as a dagger."

"Are you sure he didn't drown? We salvaged this body from the Pearl River." Zhao Yong asked doubtfully.

Director Liu glanced at Zhao Yong and said, "I can still judge this. Although the deceased had symptoms of drowning, for example, there was bleeding on the eye mucosa of the deceased, and the eardrum was ruptured due to water pressure, accompanied by bleeding. It cannot be stated that drowning was the cause of the death of the deceased. The fatal wound of the deceased was a stab wound to the abdomen before drowning."

"You mean... the deceased was probably stabbed in the water, and then drowned?" Jiang Yimin asked.

Director Liu nodded slightly, and said, "This is indeed a bit strange, but that's the only way I can explain it." Director Liu paused for a moment, and then said, "Have you found out the identity of the deceased now?"

Zhao Yong shook his head: "The deceased did not have any identification documents on him. Did you find anything on the body?"

"Oh, by the way, if you don't mention it, I almost forgot, I found this on the dead body." Tang Feng, Zhao Yong and Jiang Yimin looked along where Director Liu pointed, and Tang Feng suddenly opened his eyes wide , he saw a faint blue tattoo on the base of the dead man's ear. "What is this?" Tang Feng asked curiously.

"A tattoo, it seems to be... a wolf, a wolf... and an eagle stands on the wolf's body." Zhao Yong struggled for a long time, and finally recognized the appearance of the tattoo.

"What does this represent?" Jiang Yimin was puzzled.

"Maybe it represents their organization, or it may not represent anything." Zhao Yong said slowly.

Director Liu finally said: "The detailed autopsy report will come out in a few days, and then you can study it slowly." After speaking, Director Liu left the autopsy room.

"Research when the time comes? I'm afraid it will be too late!" Zhao Yong whispered.

"What's going on with all this?" Tang Feng felt that his mind was going to be messed up.

Zhao Yong concluded: "Let's connect things together. I judge that the whole thing should be like this. This man in black blocked Liang Yunjie in the alley last night, probably forcing him to ask Liang Yunjie about the jade screen. Liang Yunjie Not to mention, there was a fight with the man in black. During the fight, Liang Yunjie was stabbed by the man in black. Afterwards, the man in black did not run away immediately, but hid in the alley, overhearing what Liang Yunjie told Tang Feng when he was dying. last words..."

"After the man in black killed someone, he was able to hide in the dark so calmly, and jumped into the Pearl River under the conditions of last night, trying to swim away. It can be seen that he is very skilled and has extraordinary psychological quality. From this point of view, this man The man in black is really not simple." Tang Feng said in surprise.

"Yes! But who stabbed him to death in the water?" Zhao Yong frowned.

"Also, why did the organization that wanted Liang Yunjie's life send such a strangely dressed and old killer?" Tang Feng couldn't connect the killer in front of him with the inherent killer image in his mind.

"Who knows, a weirdo!" Zhao Yong muttered to himself.

"A weird person?" Tang Feng stared at the tattoo on the man's ear and fell into thought again.

Back at the police station, a police officer reported to Jiang Yimin: "We found a suspect on Jiefang North Road. This person's name is Lin Hai, and he has a Hong Kong underworld background."Zhao Yong and Tang Feng also wanted to follow, but Jiang Yimin turned around and said to Zhao Yong, "I won't bother you if you catch a little thief." After speaking, Jiang Yimin led a few colleagues and drove out of the "Accord". Interpol.

"Are we just waiting?" Tang Feng asked Zhao Yong with some disappointment.

Zhao Yong smiled and said: "Of course our old K people will not wait here, they won't take us, we will go by ourselves, you come with me." Saying that, Zhao Yong led Tang Feng to trot to the On a remote road nearby, Tang Feng saw Zhao Yong's car - a fierce H3 "Hummer".

Zhao Yong introduced to Tang Feng: "Compared to the military Hummer, this civilian version of the Hummer is just a gadget, but it is more than enough to chase a thief." Zhao Yong started the Hummer, and Tang Feng immediately felt that he had never experienced it before. strong driving force.

When Tang Feng and Zhao Yong caught up with Jiang Yimin's Accord, Jiang Yimin had already chased Lin Haixiao half of Guangzhou City.Lin Hai drove a "Poussin", cutting left and right in front, rampaging, completely as if entering no one's land.Seeing Poussin in front suddenly rushing into an alley beside the road, Jiang Yimin and many police cars did not expect Lin Hai's action at all, braked sharply, and then turned around.

Seeing Lin Hai's arrogance, Zhao Yong said angrily, "It's time to end." After finishing speaking, Zhao Yong turned sharply and outflanked it from another shortcut. When Zhao Yong drove a Hummer to the entrance of the alley, Lin Hai's Poussin happened to be at the opposite end. Hit the Hummer.The crazy Poussin finally stopped, but Lin Hai was unwilling to let him go.Zhao Yong's car door on the other side was deformed, and he couldn't open the car door, but Tang Feng opened the other car door and jumped out of the car first.After Tang Feng got off the car, he saw Lin Hai at a glance. The boy reacted quickly and ran onto the sidewalk.Tang Feng didn't wait for Zhao Yong and the police behind him to catch up, and rushed towards Lin Hai alone.

Lin Hai ran ahead desperately.Tang Feng found that the road they were on was full of people coming and going, and the terrain was complicated, but Lin Hai seemed to be very familiar with the environment here. He saw him with a backpack on his shoulder, walking skillfully among the shops, vehicles, and people. He disappeared from Tang Feng's sight several times, but was pulled out by Tang Feng every time.

Tang Feng chased Lin Hai hundreds of meters away. Suddenly, Lin Hai who was running wildly stopped, and Tang Feng suddenly felt that something was wrong.The two were separated by a certain distance, and they stopped almost at the same time, looking around vigilantly, and the crowd beside them was very noisy.

"What's wrong?" Zhao Yong rushed up and asked Tang Feng suspiciously.

Tang Feng raised his head and looked at the surrounding tall buildings. He suddenly realized... "Someone shot at us just now, and there are snipers in the surrounding tall buildings!"

"What? A sniper!" Zhao Yong was startled, and also looked towards the surrounding tall buildings.At this moment, Tang Feng felt that in the buildings on both sides of the road, behind each window and glass curtain wall, there seemed to be a pair of eagle eyes watching them...

"But I feel that the gun was not aimed at me, it should be aimed at Lin Hai." Tang Feng judged.

"You mean someone is going to kill someone to silence him!"

"Don't care about him, catch Lin Hai quickly." As he said that, Tang Feng turned his head and looked at the place where Lin Hai had stopped just now, and found that Lin Hai had mixed into the crowd again.

Lin Hai also seemed to realize that the real target of the sniper was himself, so he plunged into a noisy small commodity market beside the road.The flow of people here is more dense, running, nervous, and fear, which made Lin Hai overdrawn too much energy. Tang Feng found that the steps under Lin Hai's feet had begun to become messy...
