Chapter 2 Hereditary Education
Chapter 2 Hereditary Education
When the people in the police station saw the two coming to work together in the morning, they knew what was going on.With yesterday's buffer, they were not too surprised and exchanged pleasantries. After chatting casually for a few words, they dragged the two into the topic.
Ma Xiaoliang handed over a stack of documents to Singer Ji Dong, and said, "Mr. Ji, these are the detailed documents of the two victims. We checked them carefully overnight, and they are mostly here."
Ji Dongge didn't speak, subconsciously separated the two victims' documents, and handed one of them to Ning Yao.
She took it, without unnecessary reaction or expression, natural and tacit understanding.
In the silence, everyone glanced at each other with different expressions, but they didn't say much.
Judging from the data, the relationship between the two victims is extraordinary.The two are colleagues, and both are the founders of a local small animal shelter. On weekdays, the main social circle revolves around the shelter. The people they contact are either doctors from animal hospitals, or some caring volunteers or go to People who adopt animals.
Seeing that they hadn't spoken, Ma Xiaoliang said again: "It is written in the information that the two of them are extremely kind to others on weekdays, and their personalities are also very gentle. They don't easily quarrel with others or form enemies...so I think the possibility of vendetta killing and kidnapping is not very high. .”
Ji Dongge gave him a cool look: "Before the case is investigated clearly, don't make any inferential remarks."
Ma Xiaoliang scratched his nose embarrassingly, and said, "I'm just talking about my own thoughts, I want to discuss with everyone."
Ji Dongge ignored him, threw the documents on the table, and said to Ning Yao, "You follow me."
Afterwards, he said to Hao Keai: "You follow along."
Ning Yao and Hao Keyai followed Ji Dongge into the car and went to the home of one of the victims.
Hao Keai consciously went to sit in the back row, while Ning Yao sat in the passenger seat.
On the way, she glanced at his side face, and found that his jaw was a little tense, obviously still concerned about what Ma Xiaoliang said wrongly just now.
She suddenly remembered that the two of them had quarreled because of their disagreement, and he couldn't say no to her, so he gritted his teeth angrily, but couldn't bear to quarrel with her, so he slammed the door and left silently.
They had been dating for a long time at that time, and she knew his whereabouts on weekdays like the back of the palm of her hand, so she was not in a hurry, and slowly cooked two dishes, then ate them slowly, wiped her mouth and cleaned up the dishes, I went out to look for him when it was dark.
Usually he likes to vent when he is angry. He had a buddy who opened a boxing gym before, and he went there to box when he had nothing to do.So she thought about it carefully, then locked the place where he ran away from home, and took a taxi there.
After arriving at the boxing gym, she saw the man sweating profusely in the middle of the boxing gym.
She was not in a hurry at that time, and sat down in a corner with the best view, watching him vent his grievances with great interest.
I have to say that Ji Dongge's appearance is really good, with wide shoulders, narrow waist and long legs, his naked upper body seems to have been sculpted, there is no lack of lines that should be there, and the muscles like tofu are neatly formed Covering the abdomen, the arms are not as thick as a professional, but they are clearly muscular.
Ning Yao already liked his boyfriend's face and body, so looking at him at that time, he felt relish.
After looking at it for a while, she looked down inadvertently, and saw a few photos at his feet.She stretched her neck to take a closer look, and found that it turned out to be her photo!
Ning Yao didn't know why, so it happened that the owner of the boxing gym came over at that time, so she waved to him.
The two had met a few times, and they were still familiar with each other, so they didn't exchange polite greetings.She asked: "What is that at Boss Ji's feet? How do I look like my picture?"
The owner of the boxing gym smiled mischievously, and said, "What is a likeness? That's your photo!"
Now Ning Yao was even more bewildered. He glanced at Ji Dongge and asked, "He's just punching, why put my photo next to his feet? Could it be that he's just too angry to step on his feet?"
"Tsk, how is it possible?" The owner of the boxing gym looked disgusted, "How could a guy like him be willing to step on you? Don't tease me."
"Then why does he have nothing to prepare for my photo?"
"How do I know? Every time he gets angry with you, he looks like a madman!" The owner of the boxing gym was speechless, "That photo was the first time he came here and asked me to print it. It seemed that he had an argument with you. I took the photo here and pasted it on the sandbag. Looking at that posture, I thought he wanted to take your photo to vent his anger. Who knew that he looked at the photo for a long time, but silently tore it off, and finally just hit the sand a few times casually. The bag left."
Ning Yao was a little stunned: "And then?"
"Then? Then every time he gets angry with you, he behaves like this, pasting and tearing up photos over and over again. Tsk, I asked him what the hell he was doing once before, and he said he was going to be angry with you I have an antisocial personality, so I want to vent my anger on your photo. I asked him why he didn't hit him, he was smoking a cigarette..."
When the owner of the boxing gym said this, he put on a deep smoking posture, and when he spoke again, his tone was somewhat similar to Ji Dongge's.
"Why else? I can't bear it."
Ning Yao couldn't tell what was going on in his heart at that time, some felt it was funny, but at the same time felt like pouring a glass of soda water in his heart, it was sweet and swollen.
After a while, she took the boxing gloves on the side, put them on, and walked all the way to Ji Dongge's side.
In fact, he had seen Ning Yao a long time ago, but because he was still angry, he didn't take the initiative to talk to her, and still beat the sandbag with his head depressed.Ning Yao, on the other hand, changed his previous appearance at home, raised his eyebrows, and tapped a few photos at his feet with his feet, smiling sweetly.
"What's the point of venting your anger with the photo? Just hit someone." She touched her fisted hands together, as if to challenge, "Come on, hit me directly."
After listening to it, Ji Dongge put on a face and replied with a cold face, "Go away."
When Ning Yao heard it, she became more straightforward. She stepped forward and put her arms around his strong waist, raised her small head and smiled provocatively: "I won't leave."
He was very helpless, and pretended for a long time, and finally saw that she really didn't let go, so he gave up struggling.
He held her face in his hands, lowered his head, and bit her cheek hard.
"Will you still be mad at me next time?"
The memories came to an abrupt end here, she forgot how she responded, and only vaguely remembered that her heart was very sweet at that time.
As if aware of her gaze, Ji Dongge looked back at her and asked, "What are you looking at?"
She looked away and said nothing.
Looking at her expression, he thought she was thinking about it again. After pondering for a moment, he stepped on the gas pedal with less force.
"Otherwise... Let's go back and apply for the investigation of the serial murder case? This case of disappearance will be transferred to other colleagues for investigation."
When Hao Keai heard this, he was a little surprised, and looked at him nervously.
Ning Yao also looked at him, did not speak, only expressed doubts with his eyes.
"I originally thought that after the disappearance case was over, I would start investigating the serial murder case that year. After all, I was also involved in this case."
The reason why the investigation time will be extended is entirely because the disappearance case and the abduction case are mistakenly intertwined.Although he didn't take over the case directly, he was involved in it anyway.He wants to have a beginning and an end in everything he does.
That's why, this time, he didn't even think about it, and directly took over the investigation of the disappearance case.
But...he couldn't see Ning Yao's lifeless look even more, he very much wanted to see Ning Yao who was always confident, steady and full of vitality.
"But thinking about it carefully, we seem to have no extra time to waste. Why don't I hand over the disappearance case, and then we can concentrate on investigating the case back then."
Ning Yao shook his head and refused without thinking.
"No need. I'm really anxious, and I'm worried that the murderer's threat will come true, but I can clearly distinguish between the public and the private." She looked at him with a faint light in her eyes, "As you said, when the time comes So far, no bodies of the victims have been found, which proves that they may still be alive. If this is the case, they will have a chance to survive if the case is solved one day earlier. Since you have taken over the case, don’t hand it over to others.”
Hearing Ning Yao's words, Hao Keai's hanging heart was relieved, he was afraid that she would have the same idea as Ji Dongge.Although the serial murder case cannot be delayed, the disappearance case is actually more urgent.
Although compared with before, the police force has recruited a lot of new members with extraordinary abilities, but compared with Ji Dongge, a criminal investigation consultant, those people are still a bit inferior.The disappearance case is related to two lives. As Ning Yao said, if the case is solved one day earlier, the victim will have a chance to survive.
After Ning Yao finished speaking, Ji Dongge pursed his lips silently, and then smiled.
He thought she had changed a lot, but now it seemed that she was still the same when dealing with cases and victims.
Thinking of this, he didn't say anything more.After the car followed the navigation for a while, he parked the car steadily on the side of the road.
"Come on, let's get out of the car."
They came to the home of one of the victims, which is located in the city center and is a mid-to-high-end residential area. There are security guards to register when entering and leaving, and the safety factor is relatively high.
According to the information, the victim’s name is Ge Hong. She is married and has one son. Her husband’s name is Xu Yiping, and her son’s name is Xu Nuo. Her family conditions are good, but because she does charity work, the main source of income for her family is her husband Ping Rili. Run a small pet hospital.
After finding the house number, Ji Dongge only pressed the doorbell, and the door opened from the inside.
Appearing in the eyes of several people was a very gentle-looking man, about 30 years old, wearing a light blue shirt, with a very gentle face.Look at the man's appearance, he is Ge Hong's husband Xu Yiping on the profile.
"Who are you looking for?"
Hao Keai directly showed his ID: "Police."
After Xu Yiping saw his ID, a look of unnaturalness flashed in his eyes, and then he looked at them with some vigilance: "What's the matter with you?"
"Don't be nervous." Ji Dongge said, "We are here to re-interrogate you on the case of your wife's disappearance."
Xu Yiping thought for a while, and finally stepped aside and said, "Come in."
The interior decoration is very bright, the windows are bright and clean.The living room, dining room, and everything that can be seen at a glance are very neat and orderly, and it is not at all obvious that this is the long-lost family of the hostess.
In front of the coffee table in the center of the living room, a kid who looked like he was in the first or second grade was doing his homework.Now it is midsummer outside, but he is wearing a long school uniform, covering him tightly.
After hearing the sound of Ji Dongge and the others entering the room, the child raised his head and looked this way, with a trace of timidity in his eyes, he didn't look like a bold child.
Xu Yiping took three cups and put them in front of them respectively, then lifted the teapot on the coffee table, and slowly poured tea for them: "If you have any questions, please ask as much as possible. I have been very anxious since my wife disappeared, and I hoped to get it sooner than anyone else. Find her, and hope she returns home soon. Therefore, I will try my best to remember and tell you any relevant details.”
His cooperative attitude saved the opposite person from some unnecessary troubles.Hao Keai took out the prepared notebook and pen to record, and said firstly: "I'm sorry, our investigation was a bit biased, because there were too many cases of abduction and trafficking in the city not long ago, and the timing of your wife's disappearance is similar to that of abduction and trafficking. The cases are very similar, so the colleagues in the team put the case under the trafficking case after a brief questioning, which delayed the best time to solve the case. But don't worry, we have reorganized the direction now, wait..."
Before he finished speaking, Xu Yiping interrupted him: "What do you mean? You mean my wife was not trafficked?"
"Yes." After Hao Keai finished speaking, he stared at Xu Yiping closely.
Xu Yiping's face sank at a speed visible to the naked eye.
"I don't know what they mean by coming here. They suspect that my wife's disappearance is man-made, and... did I kill her?"
Before the few people had time to say anything, a child on the side suddenly ran over and stood in front of Xu Yiping, looking anxious, and said, "Uncle, aunt, you must have made a mistake, mother is not dead! She is not dead yet!" Die! She will come back! Dad will not harm her, you must have made a mistake! Don't take him away!"
Ning Yao and Ji Dongge saw the reaction of the father and son, and looked at each other calmly.
Ji Dongge said: "We haven't determined the direction of the investigation yet, so you don't need to get excited. This time we are here to make another detailed record, so that we can solve the case faster."
The child raised his head, apparently in disbelief: "Really? You didn't lie to me?"
Ning Yao touched the top of his hair: "Really, uncle and aunt won't lie."
Xu Yiping dragged Xu Nuo behind him, a little impatient between his brows, but his tone was still gentle: "Go and do your homework, I don't need you here, uncles and aunts won't do anything to Dad."
Ji Dongge spoke in a timely manner: "Sorry, in order to ensure the comprehensiveness of the clues, the child, as the immediate family member of the victim, also needs to make a record."
Ji Dongge originally thought that Xu Yiping would strongly object when he mentioned this, but unexpectedly, Xu Yiping didn't say anything, he just hesitated for a moment before nodding in agreement.
Ning Yao took the child to his bedroom, Hao Keai took a look at Ji Dongge, and after getting his approval, he followed Ning Yao into the child's bedroom.
In order to prevent the children from being disturbed, they closed the door after entering to isolate the voices of the two people in the living room.
Ning Yao didn't ask directly, but looked around, planning to find some topics to narrow the distance between her and the child first, so that he could ask more real things after he was unprepared.
There were a lot of awards in the bookcase in the corner. After reading them one by one, she praised them, "Promise, kid? I didn't expect you to be so good. You must be a very smart kid with so many awards."
Promised not to have the reaction of ordinary children after being praised, he silently lowered his head and muttered: "I'm not smart, a smart child won't only get No.2 or No.3 like me, auntie don't need to comfort me, I know Yes, only the child who took No.1 deserves to be praised, and I don’t deserve it.”
Ning Yao and Hao Keyai were stunned for a moment, looking at the child's fluffy hair, Hao Keyai changed the subject calmly: "Then let's start taking notes now? Don't be nervous, just answer the question of uncle and auntie. Just ask a question, and if you don’t know, you can just say it.”
Xu Nuo nodded solemnly.
Hao Keai turned on the phone first, clicked on the recording interface, and wrote a few words in the notebook with a pen.
Ning Yao looked at his tightly wrapped appearance, and couldn't bear to say: "Why don't you take off your coat first? It's so hot now, Auntie is afraid that you will get heat stroke."
Xu Nuo shook his head, his expression was a little nervous compared to just now: "No need, auntie, I'm not hot." As he spoke, he subconsciously shrank his little hands into his sleeves.
Ning Yao had a panoramic view of his movements, and didn't make things difficult for him, and began to question and take notes with Hao Keai.
"When was the last time you saw your mother?" Ning Yao asked.
"It should be more than a month ago." Xu Nuo replied.
"Do you remember the exact time?"
"The fourth of last month."
It is now June NO.17, and the [-]th of last month is May [-]th. If the date promised is accurate, it means that the victim has been missing for one month and fourteen days.
Hao Keai took notes in his notebook and asked, "Is May [-]th a special day?"
Xu Nuo can recall it so quickly, which means that he must have a deep impression on that day, and that day was a special day.
Xu Nuo lowered his head, his eyes dodging a little.
"It's nothing special, it's just that the teacher informed me that there would be a miscellaneous fee, so I was a little more impressed." When he was speaking, his little hands were unconsciously twisted together. Ning Yao looked at it calmly, and asked after a while: "Then What? When you saw your mother that day, what did she do?"
Xu Nuo lowered his head even lower, and Ning Yao couldn't even see a trace of the expression on his face.
"I was at school during the day, so I don't know what happened to my mother. But at home at night, instead of coming home and changing into her pajamas and putting on a mask, she was sitting at the kitchen table and talking on the phone. What I didn't hear the content very clearly, but my mother looked very anxious, as if something serious had happened. Then she walked towards the door and told the people there to wait for her. She would be there soon, and then left. "
"And she didn't come back?"
"Yes, she never came back."
"Then can you guess who Mom was calling that day?"
Xu Nuo rolled his eyes: "I think it should be Aunt Liu Mei, she usually has the most contact with Aunt Liu."
Liu Mei, the other of the two missing victims, is also Ge Hong's most contacted colleague on weekdays.
After Ning Yao and Hao Keyai finished listening, they didn't speak for a long time, and the bedroom was very quiet, as if there was a hint of oppression.Xu Nuo raised his head bravely, and looked at Ning Yao timidly: "Uncle, Auntie, did I say something wrong?"
Ning Yao quickly smiled and shook his head: "No, you behaved very well."
Outside, the conversation between Ji Dongge and Xu Yiping has been going on.
Compared with Ning Yao's side, the way of conversation here is much simpler and more direct.
"Did Ge Hong act abnormally before he disappeared?"
Xu Yiping didn't even think about it, and said, "No."
"Then did she show uneasiness and apprehension before she disappeared?"
"nor."
Ji Dongge looked at him quietly, with a sense of oppression in his cold eyes: "Not reporting what you know is equivalent to covering up in disguise. Seriously, you will bear relevant legal responsibilities. Are you sure you want to continue to be so uncooperative?"
Xu Yiping's expression froze, and he smiled slightly: "Officer, everything I said is true, do you want to suspect that I have something tricky just because I haven't provided you with any good clues for the police?"
Ji Dongge didn't want to waste time entangled with him, so he didn't care about his strong words, and continued to ask: "Has Ge Hong usually offended anyone?"
For some reason, after Xu Yiping heard his words, the corners of Xu Yiping's lips twitched mockingly, and said, "It's fine if others don't offend her, but she can still offend others..."
Ji Dongge frowned slightly, and looked at Ge Hong's husband with deeper and sharper eyes.
If he remembered correctly, the previous survey data showed that Ge Hong was usually gentle and kind, but why did her husband give the completely opposite evaluation?
Ji Dongge didn't ask the other party directly, but calmly kept this doubt in his heart, and then changed the subject: "Besides you, who is Ge Hong's most contacted person on weekdays?"
"Her good friend, Liu Mei."
"Do they usually get along well? Have there been any major conflicts or disputes?"
"No, they look as good as a pair of trousers. I've never seen them fight."
Ji Dongge thought for a while, and then said: "The time we recorded your report was May [-]th. Did you discover Ge Hong's disappearance on that day? Or earlier?"
Xu Yiping did not answer directly as before, but lowered his eyes slightly, and was silent for a while.
"I was in a bad mood those few days. I encountered some troublesome things in the hospital. The child was not very worrying, so I ignored her. Later, when I finished my work and calmed down to contact her, I realized that she had disappeared. Contacted." At this point, Xu Yiping looked at Ji Dongge again, with the same expression, but a little evasion in his eyes, "Even if I found her missing a few days later, it still can't prove that the case has something to do with me, right? "
"The person next to the pillow doesn't come home for a few days, even if there is any reason, it shouldn't be so late to find out, right?"
"The key is that she used to stay out at night a lot. Over time, I got used to it, so..."
Ji Dongge put one hand on his knee lightly, tapped his index finger regularly, stared at him opposite him motionlessly, and didn't speak for a while.
At this moment, the door of the bedroom opened suddenly, and Ning Yao and Hao Keyai came out one after the other, looking as if they had finished their question.
Ji Dongge stood up and looked at her, and said, "Did you finish the transcript?"
"Well, we have already asked what we should ask."
"Then let's go."
Xu Yiping obviously didn't expect that they would end suddenly, he stood still for a moment without reacting, but Xu Yiping followed like a little tail.
Ning Yao thought he was worried about his mother, so when he reached the door, he turned around to comfort him, but he accidentally knocked down a baseball bat standing in the corner.
The sound of the stick falling to the ground was not loud, but it shocked the promise behind.Like a conditioned reflex, he took a big step back in horror, and even lost his footing, almost falling to the ground.
Xu Yiping barely supported him, with an impatient look on his face: "Didn't I tell you? Don't always be frizzy."
Xu Nuo lowered his head, unable to see his expression clearly, but his thin body was trembling slightly, and his breathing rate was much higher than before.
Ning Yao had a panoramic view of this scene, a strange feeling flashed in his heart, then he glanced in Ji Dongge's direction and found that he was still staring at Xu Nuo.
Xu Yiping didn't care about their reaction, patted Xu Nuo on the head, and said: "You go in to study your homework, and the tutor will come later, and then you won't know anything."
Xu Nuo still hung his head, and nodded slightly when he heard the sound.
While talking, there was a knock on the door. Xu Yiping looked at the clock on the wall and said, "It should be the child's tutor."
Ning Yao opened the door smoothly. Sure enough, there was a young man standing outside, with a light gray T-shirt on his upper body and black trousers on his lower body. He looked tall and sunny.
The young man seemed to be a little curious about Ji Dongge and the others, but he also knew how to measure them. After looking at them briefly, he nodded at Xu Yiping and walked into the room.
At this time, Ji Dongge seemed to think of something, paused, and said to Xu Yiping: "Please don't leave the country in the near future, let alone lose contact. Before the truth of the case is found out, we may still need your cooperation in the investigation."
Xu Yiping frowned even more when he heard it, but finally nodded and said, "I didn't break the law, I'm not afraid of anything, and I won't run away."
After going out, several people tacitly looked back at the door of Ge Hong's house, each thinking about something.After a while, several people went downstairs one after the other.
Ning Yao didn't speak until he got in the car: "Xu Yiping has a big problem."
Ji Dongge nodded in agreement: "Indeed. But you have been in the bedroom all the time, how could you find out that there is something wrong with him?"
Ning Yao turned his head and winked at Hao Keai who was in the back row, and he immediately understood, took out the phone from his pocket and handed it to her.
While clicking on the recording just now, Ning Yao said, "Compared to other peers, that child has a lot of low self-esteem, and..." As she spoke, she dragged the playback progress bar of the recording back for a while, and the voice of promise came from the phone It came out.
"I was at school during the day, so I don't know what happened to my mother, but at home at night, instead of changing into her pajamas and applying a mask when she came home as usual, she was sitting at the kitchen table and talking on the phone. What content I didn't hear it very clearly, but my mother's face looked anxious..."
Hearing this, Ji Dongge raised his eyes and met Ning Yao's gaze.
"The living room of Ge Hong's house is not far from the kitchen, but she didn't choose to go to the bedroom and close the door, but chose to make a phone call in a relatively public place like the kitchen, which shows that the phone call has no hidden value, so she The voice should not be lowered on purpose, at least not so low that you can't hear it in the living room."
Ning Yao paused for a moment, and then said: "But Xu Nuo said that he didn't hear clearly. What he said earlier was very strange, something like 'didn't change into pajamas and apply mask as usual', as if he was deliberately emphasizing to me his mother's abnormality that day. He spoke coherently, not like the reaction that ordinary people would have when they think, let alone such a small child..."
"Do you think he said that on purpose for you?"
"Yes, and it seems to have been prepared a long time ago." Ning Yao said, as if thinking of something, "Besides, you also saw it? His reaction just now."
Ji Dongge nodded: "Well, a typical PD patient."
PD, Panic Disorder, that is, panic disorder. Generally, children with this disease have experienced severe traumatic events. If they experience that event again, or even just related to it, or see, hear, and feel When touching a certain person or object, it will show extreme panic and shortness of breath.
And these symptoms were all displayed on Xu Nuo after the baseball bat fell to the ground.
"I suspect that he has been in a state of domestic violence for a long time." Ning Yao said, "I asked him to take off his clothes when he first entered the house. It is unusual for him to cover such a thick school uniform in this weather, but he After hearing my words, he strongly objected, obviously trying to cover up something. If so, then his so-called confession was probably taught him to recite in advance, and it was probably carried out under threat."
"Do you think the person who promised the domestic violence is his father Xu Yiping?"
"Nine times out of ten it is him. If this is the case, he must have coerced and promised to recite those words, so he is very suspected of committing the crime!"
Singer Ji Dong was holding the steering wheel, tapping on it with his fair and slender index finger, staring far ahead, without speaking for a long while.
Ning Yao saw his worries and asked, "Did you discover something I didn't know?"
He nodded: "When I talked with him, he didn't show any guilty expression. The only time he showed any strangeness was when I asked him if he could confirm the date of Ge Hong's disappearance."
"Date of disappearance? I remember Xu Xu remembering this very clearly."
"Yes, but Xu Yiping is just the opposite. His answer to this is very hesitant, and he keeps finding excuses for himself, saying that he didn't ignore Ge Hong's disappearance on purpose."
Ning Yao's dark eyes narrowed subconsciously: "If that's the case, then he and Xu Nuo are completely different in terms of when Ge Hong disappeared."
If Xu Yiping used violence to coerce him to promise to recite that confession, then the two shouldn't have such a big difference in the most crucial point, right?
Hao Keai interjected at the right time: "Otherwise, let's find someone to keep an eye on him to see if he has any changes. At present, we don't have enough clues to conclude that he is related to the disappearance case."
Ning Yao nodded, and after a while, a hesitant look appeared on his face: "But what about Xiao Xunuo? If he is really domestically abused, wouldn't it be dangerous to let him be with Xu Yiping again?"
"That can't be helped. In this situation, we can only wait. Any extra actions may scare the snake. Besides, Xu Yiping is Xu Xu's only guardian at present. We have no choice and no right to do anything to him." Ji Dongge Say.
She understands the truth, but it still hurts to think about it.
"That child showed extreme low self-esteem. That state should not only have been physically abused, but I suspect that his spirit has also been abused." Speaking of this, she sighed softly, "Although there are not many such phenomena. , but it does exist in some families.”
"Yes, so let's not pay attention to these for now, and focus on the case." Ji Dongge said, took out his mobile phone and called Ma Xiaoliang.
"Mr. Ji."
"Now you find two people to watch Ge Hong's husband. If he has any troubles, you should tell me in time. As long as he goes out, record all his actions."
"Sure, I understand!" Ma Xiaoliang paused for a moment, then said over there, "Talking about Teacher Ji, just now I checked the situation of another victim with other colleagues, and found that her husband was not in the city. , even the last report was the police station where the child’s teacher led the child, and her husband did not show up.”
"He's been on a business trip?"
"That's right. He is a film director. He usually runs with the crew, and he is currently filming in the Kunshan Film and Television City in the suburbs."
Ji Dongge raised his hand and glanced at the watch on his wrist, estimating the time: "From Kunshan Film and Television City to the city, six hours is enough for one round trip, right?"
"Enough is enough, absolutely enough."
"Okay, then you are responsible for keeping an eye on Ge Hong's husband, and Liu Mei's family is waiting for our news."
"Don't worry!" After a pause, Ma Xiaoliang asked hesitantly, "Then shall we call Liu Mei's husband? But he didn't come last time, so we only have his daughter's contact information here."
"Not for the time being, let's go and find out the situation."
"Ok."
After hanging up the phone, Ji Dongge looked at Ning Yao as if he had thought of something.
"You know that our police academy is quite close to Kunshan Film and Television City, right?"
Ning Yao didn't understand what he wanted to do, so he just nodded slightly.
"Do you remember? When you were a sophomore in college, I asked me to find a way to buy you hot and sour noodles from a store almost every night. At that time, our school was closed from Monday to Friday, and every time I secretly called I gave it to the shopkeeper, and asked him to make hot and sour noodles and secretly deliver them to the back door, and I continued inside. A few months ago, when I went back to school, he recognized me at a glance and asked me about your recent situation. "Ji Dongge hooked the corners of his lips, his jaw was not as tight as before, and his expression was gentle, "I will pass by there in a while, and I will take you to eat a bowl of hot and sour noodles, and see if the boss can also recognize you. "
When he mentioned it, it really brought back Ning Yao's memories. For a while, she really wanted to taste the taste that she couldn't eat enough back then.
So she didn't refuse, and instead agreed with acquiescence, and even faintly began to look forward to it.
The atmosphere between the two of them was obviously different from the previous one. Hao Keai watched from behind, feeling like a light bulb for a moment, so embarrassed that he closed his eyes and pretended to be asleep.
They drove for about two and a half hours to the police academy where they used to study, and the small shop was easy to find, just opposite the back door of the police academy.
When getting off the car, Hao Keai directly refused the invitation, saying that he was tired and sleepy, and wanted to sleep a little longer, and asked them to eat hot and sour noodles, and just bring him a bowl later.
He pretended to be sleeping so clearly before, how could Ning Yao not see it, so now hearing his words, his expression was a little unnatural.
Ji Dongge was very calm, as if he was very satisfied with his refusal to be a light bulb, and even smiled at him.
"Okay, then we'll bring you noodles after we're done eating." As he spoke, he took Ning Yao's hand and walked towards the store.
It was a very small shop, and the owner didn't add east and west to the menu like other businessmen.From the beginning to the end, the owner only sells hot and sour noodles. In his words, it is to make simple things to the extreme.
But the owner is not bragging, Ning Yao's previous taste was really tricky, and he couldn't eat anything that didn't suit his taste.So during the years of studying, the only one she insisted on giving good reviews was this hot and sour noodle shop.
Today is Wednesday, and the police academy is still completely closed. There are only some individual customers eating in the store. When they enter, the owner of the store immediately stands up to greet them.
When seeing Ji Dongge, the shop owner was a little surprised, looked behind him again, and said with a smile: "Congratulations, you finally coaxed your girlfriend well."
The reason why the shopkeeper said this is because when Ji Dongge came over a few months ago, he looked lifeless. He was not as energetic as he is now, and he couldn't see the light in his eyes.At that time, he asked Ji Dongge what happened. Ji Dongge was so drunk with him, and when he was about to collapse, he murmured softly: "She doesn't want me anymore, she really doesn't want me anymore... "
The shop owner recognized Ji Dongge and remembered how much he doted on his girlfriend when he was in the police academy, so he concluded that he broke up with her girlfriend.
This time Ji Dongge brought someone over, she was still the girl she was familiar with back then, and compared to before, her emotions were one heaven and the other underground.Although Ji Dongge still doesn't like to laugh very much, but the whole person looks like the flowers that are about to dry up have been turned over and fertilized again, watered carefully, and they are full of vitality again.
So the shopkeeper concluded that the little girl must have returned to him, which made him look like before.
Ji Dongge just nodded at the other party and didn't answer the question.
He led Ning Yao to sit in the corner inside, and then began to order food.
"Two bowls of hot and sour noodles, one bowl with less onion and more mustard, and one bowl without coriander."
The shopkeeper wrote the list and glanced at Ning Yao with a smile: "Is one bowl enough? I remember you used to eat two bowls for each meal."
In the past, Ning Yao had a really big appetite. At that time, she had to practice physical fitness every day, and the amount of exercise was too much. The food in the cafeteria was hard to swallow, so her daily hope was the hot and sour rice noodles at night, and she even had to eat two bowls each time.
Ning Yao didn't feel much at first, but after so many years, the old matter was brought up, and she was really embarrassed.
She didn't look at the shopkeeper, and muttered in a low voice: "I don't eat two bowls at once..."
"That's right." The shopkeeper quickly changed his words when he heard it, "You ordered four bowls of hot and sour noodles once, I still remember it!"
Ning Yao didn't know what to reply at all.
Ji Dongge raised the corners of his lips happily, and said to the shopkeeper, "You can help me make two bowls of hot and sour noodles first. If it's not enough, we can order more."
Ning Yao recalled it carefully, but he never remembered when he had eaten four bowls of hot and sour noodles.When the shopkeeper walked away, she asked Ji Dongge, "Did I ask you to buy four bowls of hot and sour noodles?"
He broke apart a pair of disposable chopsticks and rubbed the two chopsticks back and forth to remove the sawdust on them.Hearing her words, he looked up.
"Did you forget? Once in a shooting class, you missed five bullets. I saw it and went to teach you. In the end, both of us were scolded by the teacher for not being serious in class. We only knew how to fall in love, and we were fined to run [-] laps of the playground. "
When Ji Dongge mentioned it, Ning Yao remembered what was going on.
In fact, she felt that she was wronged that time. The teacher usually scolded her for not being serious, but she really didn't think about anything else that time.Her shooting has always been weak, but Ji Dongge is a well-known sharpshooter in the school. She just asked him to teach her quietly, but who would have thought that he would blatantly embrace her from behind in front of the whole class, and One hand was on her waist, and the other was on top of hers.
To this day, she still remembers the feeling at that time.At that time, the two had not been in love for a long time. Although the high profile was known to the whole school, there were not many intimate contacts in private.
So when he stuck up from behind, her whole heart was raised.
I don't know whether he was unintentional or intentional, when he leaned into her ear to speak, and when he uttered words, the warm and electric breath drifted past her ears.
"Don't be nervous, it's okay to miss the target, you are a man of all abilities, at worst, I will give you extra lessons at night."
As soon as these words came out, her original positive learning heart collapsed in an instant, and her mind became messy.When the teacher turned around and called her name, she lost control of her strength, "bang bang" a few times...and missed a few times.
Later, the teacher punished them for running around on the grounds that they only knew how to talk about love in class.After twenty laps, half of her life was almost gone.Later, when she was lying dead in the dormitory, her roommate brought back four bowls of hot and sour noodles, saying that Ji Dongge brought them to her.
At that time, she texted him angrily, asking him if he treated himself like a pig, otherwise how could he buy four bowls of hot and sour noodles for his girlfriend at a time!He didn't reply to her immediately, but pinpointed the time when she finished eating the noodles, and sent a sentence: Have you finished eating?
She looked at the four empty takeaway boxes in the trash can, gritted her teeth and replied: No!
After a few seconds, Ji Dongge replied: Oh, you reacted so strongly, it seems that you have eaten up all four bowls of noodles.
Ning Yao: ...
Ji Dongge: Are you full?If you are not full, I will order two more bowls of noodles for you.
Ning Yao gritted his teeth angrily, thinking about how to reply to him, but he suddenly sent another sentence.
Ji Dongge: We, Miss Pig, can eat with confidence. Your man is just trying to sell everything. If you don’t eat it yourself, you won’t be hungry.
At that moment, Ning Yao felt that even his breathing was sweet.
Thinking of this, her eyebrows were rarely stained with a smile, Ji Dongge saw it, and raised the corners of her mouth in a good mood.
He understands what she has experienced in the past year, and also knows that her originally hot and positive heart may start to turn cold, but he doesn't mind slowly warming it up again.As long as she doesn't leave and stays by his side all the time, he doesn't believe that she can't change back to his Ning Yao.
The two of them each had a bowl of hot and sour noodles, which made their bodies feel hot and their lips numb, and Ning Yao was even more enjoyable. If it wasn't for the loss of appetite now, maybe she would have another bowl.
When they checked out and left, they met a thin, tall and straight boy who looked very young in a white sleeveless T-shirt, black casual trousers, and a black peaked cap on his head.
But the most conspicuous thing is the opponent's face.If Ji Dongge usually gives the impression of being cold and deep, this person is the complete opposite.Taking a closer look, although he didn't smile, there was a vigor between his brows and eyes, giving people a very positive feeling.
However, Ning Yao has never had any extra interest in strangers, he just took a quick glance and then looked away.On the contrary, Ji Dongge looked back at the other party a few times when he left the store with inquiry in his eyes.
"What's wrong?" Ning Yao asked.
He shook his head: "It's nothing, I just think he looks familiar."
The topic did not continue, and they walked away in silence all the way.
At this moment, the boy who just passed by them suddenly turned back and stood at the door quietly watching their leaving backs.
There was a smile in his eyes, very shallow, as if overflowing unintentionally.
"You're finally back, Ning Yao."
Kunshan Film and Television City is built on the top of a mountain, and the surrounding mountain roads are rugged and difficult to walk. Most people have to be careful when driving up the mountain, otherwise accidents are easy to happen.
Ji Dongge concentrated on driving, while Hao Keai and Ning Yao didn't dare to talk casually.So they took advantage of this gap to silently observe the surrounding environment.
This mountain road was developed earlier, and only the entrance to the mountain has a surveillance camera, but Ning Yao just took a closer look, and two of the external lines of the camera were broken. If she guessed correctly, it should be broken .In other words, this section of the road is completely unmonitored.
Ning Yao cast his eyes out of the window, looked at the roadside less than one meter away from him, and looked at the sea surrounding the mountain, his brows wrinkled involuntarily.
This kind of road section is prone to accidents. If there is no monitoring, how can we find out the reasons behind the incident and the ownership of the responsible party?
But she didn't have time to think about it, and the car quickly reached the top of the mountain.
Before entering the film and television city, they parked the car in the parking area outside.Because the area on the top of the mountain is small and there is a shortage of parking spaces, everyone's cars can only be parked in this place, so at a glance, all kinds of luxury cars, nanny cars, and RVs are mixed together, which looks quite eye-catching.
All the good spots were taken by others. Ji Dongge turned the car into a corner, where a Cayenne and a car covered in gray cloth were parked. There happened to be another car in between the two cars. There was a parking space, and he parked the car there.
The atmosphere in the film and television city is full, and actors holding scripts and wearing costumes can be seen everywhere. They just stepped in and heard two people discussing within a few steps.
They don't look like actors, they wear casual clothes, casually dressed, and don't wear makeup, they look a bit like the assistants of a leading actor.
"Then director Wu doesn't know what he's doing. How many scenes have he changed since the filming started? In the original script written by the screenwriter, the victim sister of our sister Zhao was the most brilliant character. In the end, he changed and changed. It is the murderer played by Feng Nanfeng who caught people's attention!"
"That's right, Sister Zhao has been suffering from insomnia for the past two days. I heard that she has the idea of resigning. It was the leaders of our company who persuaded her to come down."
"You said that Director Wu just became popular, and he wasn't one of those famous directors in the industry. How dare he be so arrogant?"
One of the little girls seemed to hesitate for a moment when she heard the words, and when she spoke again, her voice was deliberately lowered a bit.
"Haven't you heard? That director Wu should have a backer. A few years ago, he was an unsuccessful young director, taking odd jobs everywhere to barely make ends meet. Later, he got an investment from nowhere and filmed " "Follow the Light" and then the movie became a big hit, and he gradually gained a firm foothold in the industry."
After listening to the other girl, she looked very interested, and asked gossipingly, "What do you mean? Do you think he has found some shady backer?"
"That's not what I said." The girl was a little careless, "Many people in the circle say so, and I heard it from others. And I also heard that his backer is an old and fat rich woman, but I don't know if it's true or not."
While talking, the two passed by Ji Dongge and the three of them. Ji Dongge glanced at the script in the hands of one of the assistants casually.
"Appreciating Lies", screenwriter Qian Lailai, director Wu Hao, starring Zhao Zhiyan and Feng Nanfeng.
After they walked away, Hao Keai asked: "If I remember correctly, Liu Mei's husband is called Wu Hao, right?"
Ji Dongge nodded: "Yes, that's him."
None of the three expected to hear a bunch of gossip about him before meeting the victim's family.
When they found the crew of "Detecting Lies", Wu Hao was directing a very important scene.Inside and outside the crew, except for the actors in the camera, everyone dared not make unnecessary noises, and Wu Hao's face looked very bad, as if he had endured to the extreme.
This scene is about the victim’s sister who learned that her boyfriend who was a car mechanic was the murderer of her sister, and there was no evidence to bring him to justice, so she looked at him tearfully outside the car repair shop, Emotions are very complex.The highlight is on the actress, and it all depends on the eyes, which requires a lot of distraction.
Obviously, Wu Hao is not satisfied with the performance of the actress.
He took off the headset and fell to the ground with a "slap". Before he could even speak, the people around him didn't even dare to breathe.
"Zhao Zhiyan, if I remember correctly, you have been acting for a few years, and you even won a Best Supporting Actress, and you act like this to me?"
Zhao Zhiyan has been going smoothly in the past two years. Although he is not a big celebrity, at least he has not been underestimated. This time, he refuted his face in public and refused to accept it for a while. He replied: "You think my performance is not good, change! Well done, who do you ask to come!"
A sneer appeared at the corner of Wu Hao's mouth: "Okay, don't go back on your word when the time comes, and press me with the employer's contract again!" After finishing speaking, he turned around and scanned the surrounding people with scrutiny, and finally fixed his gaze on Ning Yao .
"A new group performer?" Wu Hao looked her up and down while talking, and finally he pointed at her, "Okay, it's just you. You go and act in this scene, and if it's over, you come Act as the heroine of the play."
Everyone present was shocked when they heard it, especially the actresses in the movie, they all stared at Ning Yao unkindly, as if they couldn't figure out how she was so lucky.
When Zhao Zhiyan heard this, she became even more angry, and shouted loudly: "Wu Hao, what do you mean, are you comparing me with a group performer?"
Wu Hao laughed mockingly: "I just let you know your acting skills. With me, your performance is really similar to that of a group performer."
Zhao Zhiyan was so angry that she clenched her hands into fists, holding back to the extreme, and finally her manager whispered something to calm her down.
This accident made Ji Dongge frown, as if he wanted to say no for Ning Yao, but she suddenly pulled his sleeve.
She whispered in his ear, "I'll go to top it first. While everyone's attention is on filming, hurry up and go to Liu Mei's daughter to take notes. Liu Mei is missing, and the child has no guardian. She must have been following her." Dad is staying on set."
Ji Dongge understood what she meant, because of the questioning at Ge Hong's house in the morning, she always felt that Xu Yiping was suspected of instigating and promising to give a false statement in advance.Before coming to the crew this time, they had not contacted Wu Hao. He didn't know that the police were coming, so naturally he would not say anything to the child, so it is very likely that if he asks the child some questions now, the answers he gets are the most authentic.
But even so, Ji Dongge still felt that she was a little foolish. How could a person without any acting experience casually get involved in front of the camera?
"It's a big deal, I'll be scolded, it's okay, you go quickly." Ning Yao urged him.
Seeing that they kept biting their ears, the assistant director at the side also became impatient. He was afraid of procrastinating and provoking Wu Hao's anger, so he shouted loudly: "Little group performer, what are you thinking? What a great opportunity is in front of you, hurry up!" Come here and read the script and memorize the lines!"
After Ning Yao finished listening, he winked at Ji Dongge and ran over quickly.
In the end, he still pursed his thin lips, and after hearing what she said, he took Hao Keai and turned around to look for Liu Mei's daughter.
In the morning, he read the information on Liu Mei's daughter. Her mother's surname is Liu, and her name is Yi.From the photo, she is a very beautiful little girl with an oval face and big eyes, which is very recognizable.
With little effort, they found her in the rest area.
Liu Yi was lying on a simple desk doing homework, looking restless, looking at the mobile phone beside him after writing two words, his expression was also very disturbed.
After a while, the phone rang, and she was startled, then picked up the phone and answered the call.
While saying "Hello", she looked around to make sure that no one was paying attention to her, and then she felt at ease talking to the person opposite.
"Well, teacher... Dad is still making movies... Well, the police uncle hasn't come yet..."
Not knowing what the person over there said, Liu Yi suddenly bit his lips, with a hesitant and disturbed expression.
"But... but... But Mom did disappear the night after meeting Dad! And Mom was still driving Dad's car... What should I do? Teacher, I'm really scared now! Mom has disappeared, I'm afraid that my father will be taken away by the police uncles too!"
Hearing this, Ji Dongge's eyes darkened, and he quietly took back the steps he had taken.Hao Keai's eyes widened in surprise, and he subconsciously glanced at Ji Dongge.
Compared with their side, Ning Yao's side went much smoother.
Although she has never acted before and has no acting skills, her performance is very eye-catching.She is very young in terms of finding a camera seat, body performance, and expression management, but fortunately her eyes are deep.
Wu Hao was not satisfied with her performance, but he was not as harsh as the previous training on Zhao Zhiyan.When he yelled "Ka", he even praised her with a deadpan expression like "She has aura, she is a good seedling".But judging from his reaction, he didn't seem to intend to let her continue.
Seeing this, Zhao Zhiyan at the side immediately began to sneer.
"Hey, didn't our director Wu say that? A small group of actors is better than me, why don't you let her continue filming the next scene? It also gives me a lot of experience!"
Upon hearing this, Wu Hao glanced at her coldly, and said to the assistant director, "Go and get the script of the next scene and show it to the extras, and continue filming."
The assistant director was miserable, knowing that the two were fighting, but he had no good solution, so he could only listen to Wu Hao first.
Ning Yao originally thought that the filming was over, but unexpectedly there would be another one.When the assistant director was talking to her, Feng Nanfeng, who had been acting as a car repairman just now, came over.
Although she didn't pay much attention to the entertainment industry, she knew a thing or two about Feng Nanfeng.
He is one of the most commercially valuable traffic niches at the moment. He is synonymous with being handsome, sunny, gentle, and dedicated. He can be regarded as a rare perfect idol in the contemporary era.
Xu is used to seeing Ji Dongge's handsome face. Seeing the popular male star at close range this time, Ning Yao didn't feel much fluctuation in his heart, and nodded at him very calmly.
Feng Nanfeng is indeed a perfect idol, without the slightest aura of a big name, and smiled at her very kindly: "There may be some intimate scenes in the next scene. I just saw that you came with your boyfriend, right? Do you want to go first?" Talk to him?"
Ning Yao raised his eyebrows unexpectedly, before he could say anything, the assistant director beside him spoke first.
"Isn't it just a hug? It's an intimate scene!" He squinted at Ning Yao, "I don't have time for you to waste, show me the script quickly, don't make any fools."
Ning Yao carefully read the script, and it was indeed as the assistant director said, there was no excessively intimate scene.Besides, Ji Dongge should have found Liu Mei's daughter by now, and he was probably asking a question. If she went there rashly, it might attract Wu Hao's attention, so the gain would outweigh the loss.
After weighing it, she pulled out a polite and distant smile, and said to Feng Nanfeng, "It's okay, he's not a stingy person."
Then Wu Hao quickly called out, Feng Nanfeng in the camera was busy repairing the car at first, when he saw Ning Yao, he quickly climbed out with a smile.
He stretched out his arm to hug her waist, and said with a pleasant expression, "Why are you here?"
But before his hand touched her, a figure suddenly came into the camera.
Ning Yao only felt his wrist tighten, and after being pulled vigorously, he fell into the opponent's arms.
The breath in her nose was very familiar, she looked up, and it was indeed Ji Dongge.
He was staring at Feng Nanfeng quietly at the moment, his eyes were deep, and the aura around him was vaguely cold.
Feng Nanfeng was not annoyed by being thrown away, and he said to Ning Yao as if joking: "Aren't you a stingy person?"
Ning Yao didn't feel anything, just smiled slightly.Seeing this, Ji Dongge glanced at her coldly, as if saying "I'll clean you up later" with his eyes.
But this sudden change made Wu Hao very angry. He yelled at this side: "Who doesn't have eyes, didn't he see that the camera was working? Who told you to enter the scene casually? As for the assistant director, are you blind? ? You haven’t brought me out yet!”
Ji Dongge didn't talk nonsense, and dragged Ning Yao straight over.
Seeing this, Wu Hao was about to teach him a lesson, but Ji Dongge winked at Hao Keai, who took out his ID from his pocket.
"police."
Wu Hao seemed to be well prepared for Ji Dongge's arrival.Except for a flash of surprise in his eyes at the beginning, he remained calm afterwards. After telling the assistant director to arrange a temporary rest for the whole group, he followed them to the rest area.
At this moment, Liu Yi was still doing homework there, and when she saw Wu Hao bringing two strangers over, a trace of panic flashed across her immature face.
Wu Hao cut to the chase and asked, "The abduction case was solved? Did you find Liu Mei?"
Ning Yao wanted to respond, but was inexplicably held down by Ji Dongge.
"Did Liu Mei and Ge Hong come to see you on the night of the fourth of last month?"
"They came to see me, but I didn't see them. The scene that night was very important, and the whole crew was nervously filming. Where would I have time to see them?" Wu Hao looked very calm and natural, "If you If you don’t believe me, you can ask our group to come over with the photographer who made the documentary. I might leave the set for a while on other days, but I remember that day very clearly. I sat in front of the monitor and watched the actors filming all day, and I didn’t even have a toilet. Been there once."
As if eager to prove his innocence, he called the cameraman who was shooting the documentary on the set to come over after he finished speaking.
Ning Yao already had a lot of doubts in his heart, but seeing that Ji Dongge was not in a hurry, he didn't say much, and just watched the changes quietly.
After the photographer ran over, Wu Hao said to him: "Do you still remember the day when we filmed the murderer killing in the rain? You can find the documentary of that day and show it to the two police officers."
The photographer didn't know why, but he didn't say much. He turned around and found a laptop on the set, and took out a USB flash drive from his pocket.
"It's been too long, so I have saved all the previous documentaries in the USB flash drive." The photographer was looking for the video one by one, and after searching for more than half a minute, he finally found it. Here it is!" With that, he handed the laptop to Ji Dongge.
Ji Dongge took the laptop, glanced at the jumping timer at the bottom of the screen, and then looked up at Wu Hao.
"Mr. Wu, let me ask you one last time. Are you sure you didn't see Liu Mei and Ge Hong on May [-]th, and you didn't leave the set all day?"
Wu Hao slightly hooked his lips and nodded: "Of course I'm sure."
Ji Dongge was silent for a moment with a half-smile, and finally turned the computer towards Wu Hao, motioning him to look over.
"Then I would like to ask, why is the time on this documentary on May [-]rd?"
The swearing Wu Hao was taken aback after hearing this, and after realizing it, he seemed to be in disbelief, grabbed the computer, looked at it several times, and then suddenly burst into emotion.
With a bang, he dropped the computer to the ground, grabbed the photographer next to him by the neck, and shouted, "Did you do something wrong? Ah? Did you change the date of the movie? Did you ?”
The photographer didn't know what was going on, so he backed away in fright and kept shaking his head: "Director Wu, what are you talking about? I don't understand what you're talking about!"
Ji Dongge looked at Wu Hao coldly, then took out the phone from his pocket, and turned on the audio that was just recorded.
"But...but...but Mom did disappear the night after meeting Dad! And she was still driving Dad's car..."
Liu Yi's voice came out of the receiver, hitting Wu Hao's ears word by word, restraining the movements of his hands.
On the other hand, Liu Yi, who was on the side, heard his own recording without knowing anything, and his little face turned pale with fright.
Wu Hao stared at Liu Yi coldly, and said, "So, you doubt me because of a child's words?"
When Ji Dongge spoke again, his voice was cold and serious: "Shouldn't you be suspected?"
He tried his best to hide himself, thinking that he had an alibi, but after the incident was exposed, he became anxious and irritable in an instant. This is a typical post-crime psychology.
Although the evidence is not sufficient now, Ji Dongge is [-]% sure that even if Wu Hao is not the murderer, it has a lot to do with the victim's disappearance!
Hao Keai stepped forward first, and said to Wu Hao: "Mr. Wu, please cooperate with the investigation and come with us."
"Why are you leaving? I didn't kill anyone! Why do you take me away?" Wu Hao gritted his teeth and looked at Liu Yi, pointing at her, "This brat is framing me! I didn't see them at all! I didn't see them! "
Ning Yao was a little patient at first, but when he heard Wu Hao's denial, his expression sank.
"She is your daughter, what reason is there to frame you?"
"No, she's just my stepdaughter, not my own."
Wu Hao's words stunned the three of them, and Liu Yi's face became even paler after hearing Wu Hao's words, with an unbelievable look.
Ning Yao thought for a while, walked up to Liu Yi and said, "Can you go to the police station with your father and your uncle and aunt? Don't be afraid, if you haven't made any mistakes, your uncle and aunt won't do anything to you."
Liu Yi looked at her anxiously for a while, and finally nodded.
Under the scrutiny of everyone, the three brought Wu Hao and Liu Yi into the car.
On the other side, after confirming that Wu Hao was taken away by the police, someone hurriedly hid in a corner and made a call.
"He was taken away by the police, and it is estimated that the matter was completely exposed."
"Okay, thank you for your hard work."
"It's nothing to work hard, just remember to call the final payment as soon as possible."
"Don't worry, you can check your bank card in an hour."
Over there, Xu Yiping breathed a sigh of relief after hanging up the phone.
He leaned on the back of the sofa, glanced at Xu Xu who was listening carefully to the tutor's lecture not far away, and couldn't help but smile and said, "It's finally coming to an end."
After taking Wu Hao back to the police station, they did not rush to interrogate him, but locked him in the interrogation room alone, and asked his colleagues to carefully observe his reaction outside.As for Liu Yi, they were much gentler. Ning Yao specially bought some candy and snacks in a supermarket near the police station, and took the initiative to chat with her for a while. After alleviating her uneasiness, she went back to Ji Dong silently. song around.
Seeing that he was reading the two scripts, Ning Yao already had an estimate in his mind, picked up the chair next to him and sat down, and asked, "Wu Hao's version of the script is very different from the screenwriter's original script?"
Ji Dongge nodded, his profile looked cold and sharp.
The main line of the plot is not much different, but there are many more psychological narrations of criminals and his growth background, which is equivalent to whitewashing him in disguise, and it is understandable for him to commit crimes.
Once the concept of this character changes, it is equivalent to the change of the concept of the whole film.
Ning Yao glanced briefly at the contents of the script, with a slight sarcasm on his fair face.
"Typical pre-criminal psychology, which rationalizes criminal views and projects them onto the characters in the script, so as to hypnotize myself psychologically, and feel that I have done nothing wrong." The facts of the crime, I don't know whether he is too confident in himself or treats them as fools.
"However," Ning Yao seemed to have thought of something, "What is his criminal motive? What is his crime method?"
Ji Dongge took out his phone and played the recording of Liu Yi's phone call again.
"...and still driving Dad's car..."
Hearing this, Ning Yao raised his eyes, as if he understood something, and said, "Let's go and take notes with Liu Yi."
After she finished speaking, she got up on her own, but before she reached Liu Yi, a voice suddenly came from not far away.
"Xiaoyi!"
Ning Yao looked over there and found a young man hurriedly walking this way. After seeing him, Liu Yi ran over and threw himself into his arms.
"Teacher, you're finally here!" Liu Yi endured the sadness and anxiety all the way, and at this moment, she let out all of it. She hugged the young man's waist and cried hard, her small shoulders twitched, looking at the young man People feel distressed, "Dad, Dad... said... that I am not his biological daughter! Huh..."
The young man seemed a little surprised, his brows were slightly raised, and surprise flashed across his handsome face.
At this time, Ji Dongge came over, looked at the young man calmly for two seconds, and said in a deep voice, "If I remember correctly, you are Xu Nuo's tutor, right?"
Ning Yao remembered it as soon as he heard it, and took a closer look at the young man's face. Wasn't it the tutor who passed by them at Ge Hong's house?
The young people nodded to them: "Hello, my name is Jiang Ping, and I am Xu Nuo and Liu Yi's English tutor."
Ji Dongge raised his eyebrows slightly, and asked, "You taught the English of the two children?"
Jiang Ping nodded again, and his reaction was very natural and calm, without the embarrassment and anxiety of ordinary people entering the police station: "Because the parents of the two families are very familiar with me, they can safely entrust their children to me to teach."
Liu Yi was still crying, and a lot of tears and snot were on Jiang Ping's shirt. She sobbed and whispered, "Teacher, why did Dad say that he didn't see Mom and Aunt Ge that day? Why did he lie?"
Jiang Ping gently rubbed Liu Yi's head, looked up at Ji Dongge and Ning Yao, and said, "This child has been calling me for the past few days, and she said that she was very disturbed because Sister Liu and Sister Ge were there that day. She disappeared after meeting her father. At first she thought it was just a coincidence, but when she heard that the kidnapping case had been solved, but her mother hadn't heard from her... she started to feel a little panicked. Because she happened to be at the film and television city that day, And then her mother and her father..."
Speaking of this, he paused, and when he spoke again, he changed his address: "I changed cars with Mr. Wu. According to what she told me, she gave Mr. Wu's car keys to my mother when I changed cars. "
"Then can you tell auntie why father and mother have to switch cars?" Ning Yao asked Liu Yidao.
Liu Yi shook her head: "I don't know, my parents never said anything about it."
Ning Yao seemed to want to ask something else, but Ji Dongge's cell phone rang suddenly.
After answering the phone, Ma Xiaoliang hurriedly said: "Mr. Ji, come to Xu Yiping's animal hospital quickly! There is a problem!"
Ji Dongge took Ning Yao all the way to step on the accelerator and drove there. After arriving at the place, they were afraid of arousing surprise, so they didn't get out of the car to meet Ma Xiaoliang directly, but called him in the car.
"Tell me, why did you call me here in such a hurry?"
Ma Xiaoliang quickly replied: "Didn't my colleagues and I stare at him all the time, and then followed him all the way after he came out of the house. He drove directly to the pet hospital, but he didn't go in when he arrived, but waited for someone at the door." Yes. Then a group of people came, looking like a gangster, not like a good class, before we figured it out, the group of people punched and kicked him, tsk, the beating was terrible, after they stopped, it was like I said something to him again, and then dragged him into the pet hospital, and never came out again."
After Ji Dongge finished listening, his brows were furrowed, and he didn't relax after hanging up the phone.
He roughly told Ning Yao what Ma Xiaoliang said, and after she heard it, she frowned even tighter than him.
"Why do I feel that this case is getting more and more complicated..."
Ji Dongge didn't speak, but his expression seemed tacit.
And at this moment, the door of the pet hospital opened again, and the group of people Ma Xiaoliang just mentioned appeared in their sight.
Almost every one of those people held two cages, in which were kept some kittens and puppies. The small animals looked sick and lacked energy.After most of the people got into the car with their cages, the remaining one walked up to Xu Yiping.
They were too far away, so they couldn't see their expressions clearly, only Xu Yiping kept his head down, and the man patted his side face heavily while talking, looking very unfriendly.
After they drove away, Ji Dongge turned on the ignition and said to Ning Yao: "Call Ma Xiaoliang and ask him to keep watching Xu Yiping. Let's follow the group in front!"
They followed the group all the way to the western suburbs, and it was already dark at this time, the western suburbs are very lively during the day, there are some flower and bird markets and dog markets, but at night, it is desolate and dark, with few people.
Afraid that the target of driving the car was too big, Ji Dongge simply stopped the car at the intersection, and took Ning Yao to look for it carefully against the wall.
The group of people didn't go much further, they just found an open space at the dog market and parked the car, and then got out of the car one by one, throwing the cage on the ground casually, with a look of indifference.
Ji Dongge took Ning Yao's hand and quietly approached them.
In the dark night, everything was very quiet, and the group of people stood not far from them.Ning Yao was very careful with every step he took, for fear that some of them would suddenly turn around and find her and Ji Dongge.
But it was strange that although she took every step with extreme caution, she didn't really panic in her heart.
There was his warm and slender hand in the palm. She felt the temperature of his palm, and looked at his tall and slender back, feeling inexplicably in her heart: This man is indeed the source of all her sense of security. As long as he is around, she seems Not afraid of any danger.
However, despite being extremely careful, Ning Yao finally stepped on a branch.
With a click, the sound of the branch breaking was not loud, but it was still obvious in the quiet and empty night. Ji Dongge reacted instantly, pulled her back suddenly, and hid in a nearby wall.
The people over there turned their heads instantly, and one of them shouted, "Who's there?"
Ning Yao was held in front of Ji Dongge's chest, his breath was held tightly, and he didn't dare to make the slightest movement.Her face was pressed against his chest, and there was only a layer of T-shirt between her hard chest muscles and her cheeks. The unique breath on his body almost swallowed her, and her whole face was steaming with smoke.
At this time, she suddenly felt that the top of her hair was touched by something soft, very light and restrained.
She looked up and found that Ji Dongge was looking down at her, not at all guilty of being caught after doing something bad, she was very calm, and there was even a hint of a triumphant smile in her dark eyes.
The group of people seemed a little worried, the person who just shouted even took two steps towards this side, when he was getting closer to Ji Dongge and the others, a car suddenly drove into the gate of the dog market car.
There were more than a dozen people in the van, and when the car stopped, the people on it scrambled to get out of the car.
The driver lit a cigarette, leaned on the car, and asked aloud, "Didn't you usually come during the busy dog market during the day to deceive people? Why is it so late today?"
"It's not the man Ge Hong, don't mention it, I get a headache when I think of him. Guess what he said to me today? Hey! He said he wants to wash his hands in the golden basin!" , "Everyone has been tied to the same rope for so long, and now he says he wants to wash his hands and quit? It's a good idea!"
The driver seemed to find it quite funny, and laughed a couple of times in agreement.
At the same time, the group of young people walked around to the row of cages in front of them one after another, without looking at them carefully, they took a random cage one by one, and went to the side to scan the QR code to give money.
The person who was talking to the driver just now suddenly said: "Everyone knows the rules, and you all know how much you pay for your size, so be more conscious!"
The driver opposite smiled: "Are you still afraid that they will lose your money? Then how can I ask you to do something next time?"
The man also laughed, very maliciously.
After the transaction was completed, the two parties got into their own cars and drove away one after the other.
Seeing this, the two people in the corner quickly ran to the side of the road and got into the car, stepped on the accelerator, and managed to catch up with the group in front.
They didn't drive very far, but turned west and east around here and turned into a residential area.This is the old town, most of which are old bungalows that have been around for a long time. There are almost no people living here, and the houses are all empty. Looking up, it is pitch black.
After they parked the car in a yard, they got out of the car and entered the house.
Ji Dongge led Ning Yao into the yard, hesitating slightly, and after a while, he turned to look at her.
"Or are you waiting for me outside?"
Ning Yao frowned slightly: "Why are you still the same as before? At least I am the runner-up in Sanda in the game, so I won't be a hindrance."
He looked at her quietly: "Be obedient."
"No." She raised her eyes and looked at him with unclear meaning, "I want to be with you."
The simple five words seemed to please him, and the originally tense lines were inexplicably soft.He held her hand firmly: "Then follow me closely."
The two quietly walked towards the courtyard one after the other, under the silent night sky, the familiar emotion with the memories of the past was rolling slightly.
The people inside didn't stop after entering the room, laughing and laughing non-stop.A middle-aged man raised his voice and suddenly shouted: "Boss! There is only one left here, look...or give it to the brothers?"
The man who was called the boss was the man who taught Xu Yiping a lesson. Hearing this, he didn't seem to hesitate at all, and said directly: "Success! You can arrange it. Brothers are finished, let's cook dog meat again!"
The sound of footsteps gradually came from the house, Ji Dongge and Ning Yao quickly hid behind the car and watched carefully.
With a loud voice, he grabbed a dirty puppy out of the cage, took out a folding dagger from his pocket, and without hesitation, plunged it into the puppy's neck.
Ning Yao gasped, seeing the puppy screaming and struggling, and gradually dying after a while, her hanging hand clenched into a fist.
Who would have thought that the loud voice killed the puppy, but he still held a dagger and opened it up naturally with his movements!Then, he took out a bag of things from it.
The two took a closer look, and it turned out to be a pack of heroin!
As if enlightened for a moment, Ning Yao subconsciously widened his eyes and looked at Ji Dongge silently.But unexpectedly, he didn't look at himself, but turned his head and looked up and down.
An ominous premonition flooded her heart, and time seemed to slow down at this moment. She turned her head little by little, and finally saw a man holding a kitchen knife with a cold smile above her head.
The next second, the man smirked and chopped off the knife!Ji Dongge instantly pushed Ning Yao out, and he took a step back to the side.
The movement became louder, and the loud voice of Zaigou was also alarmed.
"What's going on?" he asked.
The smile of the man holding the kitchen knife became more gloomy, and he shouted: "Everyone, come out and have a look! Someone else offered to use the flowers and plants in our backyard as fertilizer!" Surrounded.
But there was no trace of panic on Ji Dongge's Qingjun face. He looked at these people coldly, and asked sharply, "Did Xu Yiping use the stray dogs in the pet hospital to cover your drug trafficking?"
Perhaps not only Xu Yiping, but even Ge Hong and Liu Mei should be connected with this gang.
The leader sneered and said, "What's the use of knowing so much? Anyway, I'm going to be a ghost with swords soon." After finishing speaking, a group of people approached with knives of different lengths. Under the moonlight, a dozen knives had a cold look cold light.
Ning Yao and Ji Dongge stood back to back tacitly, staring vigilantly at the person in front of them.
At this time, someone took the lead, raised her hand and slashed directly in front of Ning Yao, but she didn't show weakness, she raised her long legs, and kicked the man in the abdomen forcefully.
Then there was a panic, a group of people were few against many, fortunately, the two of them were among the best in their skills, and they didn't struggle too much at the beginning, but they were outnumbered, especially their physical strength. It didn't have the explosive energy it had at the beginning.
At this moment, Ning Yao's ankle was horribly stabbed. When she was so painful that her scalp was numb and she wanted to turn around to hide twice, she saw a dagger quietly raised behind Ji Dongge.
And right now, he was busy dealing with the four or five people in front of him, so he had no time to pay attention to what was behind him.
She almost didn't even think about it, and rushed directly behind him.
At that moment, there was only one thought left in her mind - she could only return his affection for so many years.
However, the expected pain did not come, replaced by the sound of gunfire whistling past his ears.Then, she saw the person who was about to sneak attack just now widened his eyes, and fell to the ground with a "thump"!
The accident happened so fast that no one expected it.After a while, Ma Xiaoliang's voice came from the door: "Don't move! Police!"
Ji Dongge didn't care about anything at this time, he just turned around and pulled Ning Yao into his arms, shouting, "Are you crazy?"
Ma Xiaoliang and the other police officers approached. Originally they wanted to care about their boss, but now seeing that their atmosphere was not right, they quickly shut up and put handcuffs on those drug dealers.
Ji Dongge's body was full of terrifying aura, he took a few glances at Ning Yao, and then dragged her to stride outside.
Her ankle had just been injured, and it was a bit difficult to walk at the moment. After following a few steps, Ji Dongge noticed something strange, and immediately hugged her up.
She put her arms around his neck and struggled uncomfortably, but in return he said with greater strength: "Do you still want your feet? Don't move!"
She pursed her lips, looked at his tense jaw, and finally fell silent.
Ji Dongge drove her all the way to the nearest hospital, ran up and down with her on his back, and did a series of examinations.
It was finally confirmed that she had no other injuries other than her ankle being stabbed, and Ji Dongge's heart was slightly relieved all the way.
He carried her into the car silently all the way, without saying a word to her the whole time, his face was still as gloomy as before, dripping ink.
After the car drove for a while, he somehow stepped on the brakes and parked the car on the side of the road.
Ning Yao only felt his waist tighten, and his whole body was suddenly brought into his arms, then his chin was pinched tightly, and his lips were tightly held by him.
With a domineering and violent deep kiss, Ning Yao felt that Ji Dongge was going to suck her soul away, his lips and tongue were full of vigor, which made her brain buzzing, and the heart in her chest seemed to want to suck her soul away. Like jumping out.
After a while, like a century, when she was released, her lips were already red and swollen, and a layer of mist gathered under her eyes.
His thumb lightly rubbed against her red lips, his eyes were dim, and then he panted lightly against her forehead.
When he spoke, there was a hint of ambiguity in his hoarse voice: "Are you trying to scare me to death?"
Ning Yao: ...
"Who gave you the courage to block the knife for me?"
Ning Yao: ...
"Do you think you can pay off what you owe me if you block the knife for me?"
He kissed her heavily again, and said in a low voice, "You're dreaming!"
The reason why Ma Xiaoliang and the others were able to rush to the location of the drug dealer in such a timely manner was entirely because of Xu Yiping's clues.
After Ji Dongge and Ning Yao left, they kept staring at Xu Yiping. Unexpectedly, after the guy went home, he packed a suitcase and hurried out.Ma Xiaoliang noticed that something was wrong, and quickly asked Hao Keai to call his colleagues in the bureau to check Xu Yiping's ticket purchase records.
really!He bought a ticket to go abroad, and it was one-way.
After they heard the news, they hurried to contact Ji Dongge, but his cell phone was still disconnected.
So when they arrived at the airport, they didn't care whether this would scare the snake, so they left the person behind first.
Unexpectedly, after they caught Xu Yiping, he felt as if he was suddenly discouraged, and sat on the ground exhausted, muttering to himself: "I don't want to continue... Enough is enough, I really think it's enough..."
He looked up at Ma Xiaoliang and the others, his eyes dead silent.
"If I take the initiative to provide you with clues to the police, can I be given a lighter punishment?"
Then, he confessed everything, and reminded Ma Xiaoliang and the others that those drug dealers were desperadoes. If Ji Dongge and Ning Yao were not to be in danger, they had better take them there quickly.
Fortunately... Fortunately, when they arrived, everything was still in time, otherwise the consequences would be unimaginable.
Ji Dongge originally wanted to send the injured Ning Yao home to rest, but she strongly refused. He had no choice but to turn around and take her back to the police station.
It was almost early morning, but the police station was brightly lit, and no one left.
When Ma Xiaoliang saw them coming back, he quickly got up to meet them.
"Mr. Ji, we have almost finished interrogating Xu Yiping. He has explained the whole process of the case. According to him, Ge Hong, Liu Mei and those drug dealers are a gang. The reason why the small animal charity was established is to use those drug dealers. The collected stray cats and dogs serve as cover for drug dealers and sell drugs."
Because the anti-drug team is very strict in cracking down on drug trafficking and drug use, the drug dealers are having a hard time. After racking their brains and thinking about it, they finally came up with such a way to cheat the world.
They take in the stray cats and dogs sent by caring people on weekdays, and when they reach a certain number, they are sent to the pet hospital in the name of treating small animals.Then the drug dealers sent large quantities of drugs to the hospital, and then Xu Yiping sewed the drugs into the bodies of the small animals one by one.
With such a protective umbrella, their lives are much easier. Not only do they no longer have to worry about selling drugs in entertainment venues, but they can also smugly sell drugs under the noses of others.
Ma Xiaoliang paused, and then said: "Xu Yiping also said that if Ge Hong and Liu Mei were really killed, then Wu Hao is the most suspected. Because Wu Hao has been helping them in that gang for the past few years. He knows many celebrities in the entertainment industry, especially those who are unsuccessful in the second and third tiers. They are under great pressure and depressed all day long. Such people are the easiest to be hooked. So after going back and forth, he became a pimp, helping those drug dealers in his circle and Wu Hao was still a small person who needed financial support when he married Liu Mei. In the past few years, with Liu Mei's financial help, he has become more and more smooth, and he wants to get rid of Liu Mei. But the two seem to have been There was no agreement, so Wu Hao became murderous in the end."
Ma Xiaoliang looked at Ji Dongge's face, paused, and carefully added: "Of course, these are just Xu Yiping's one-sided claims, and there is no key evidence yet."
"It's better to have a direction than no direction." He quickened his steps, then stopped suddenly, and turned to look at Ning Yao, "You rest first? Shall I interrogate him?"
Ning Yao shook her head, she had just gone through a life-and-death battle, and she was indeed very tired, but she always felt that it was unreasonable to let him run around alone.
And when she was in the police station, she was very sensitive to drug-related cases, so she didn't want to give up this opportunity for interrogation.
As if he had guessed what she was thinking, Ji Dongge didn't refute, just stretched out his hand to hold her white palm, and walked towards the interrogation room.
Ning Yao's face was a little hot, she was okay outside just now, now that the two of them are so close in front of so many acquaintances, she still feels embarrassed.After struggling hard, instead of breaking away, she got Ji Dongge's cold stare.
She had no choice but to bite the bullet and walk towards the interrogation room with him, facing the eyes of her colleagues.
The lights in the interrogation room were very bright, but they were obviously a bit harsh and pale at midnight.
Xu Yiping sat there, his already unattractive face was even paler under the white light.As if he had lost his soul, he sat there blankly, not knowing what to think.
Seeing someone coming in, like a frightened bird, he immediately sat up straight and looked at them nervously.
Before Ning Yao and the others could speak, he asked first, "I've provided you with so many testimonies, so the sentence should be reduced, right?"
Ji Dongge rolled his eyelids, and glanced at him lightly: "The sentencing depends on the amount of drugs you participated in trafficking. We will provide it to the court when you voluntarily confess. The judge will have his own judgment on what will happen in the end."
Not getting the answer he wanted, Xu Yiping collapsed and buried his face in his palm, panting continuously.
But Ning Yao didn't sympathize with him at all. Seeing him like this, she only had the word "serve it right" in her heart.
She said to Xu Yiping: "Before you get involved in drug trafficking, you should think about what the end result will be."
"No, I was seduced!" Xu Yiping couldn't control his emotions at this moment, and his voice was a little louder than before, "Ge Hong, that bitch! It's all her! She seduced me to marry her, the marriage Then she seduced me to work for their gang! She said it very nicely at the time, as long as I operate on small animals as usual, I can get a lot of money! Without her, I would not participate in these things Yes! It's all her! It's all her!"
"But you were seduced in the end, weren't you?" Ning Yao's eyes suddenly became sharp, and when he met Xu Yiping's eyes, he was aggressive, "If you had called the police as soon as you found out that she was a drug dealer, you wouldn't have There are the next things!"
She didn't even dare to think deeply about Xu Yiping's assistance in drug trafficking in the past few years, how many colleagues in the anti-drug department have returned without success, and how many drug dealers have escaped legal sanctions while doing human blood business because of his assistance. .
Ji Dongge held her hand gently, as if trying to comfort her.
He understood why she was so excited.Back then, she had a best friend who was assigned to the anti-narcotics team after graduation. After working for only two years, she died while arresting a drug dealer.
At the memorial service, Ning Yao cried very sadly.He still remembers what she said while holding him and sobbing.
"Our country has been depressed for nearly a hundred years because of drugs, and everything now is bought by those heroes with their flesh and blood. Those drug dealers, all deserve to die! All deserve to die!"
Ning Yao had never said such a serious word before that, which shows how much she hates drug dealers.
So seeing her like this this time, he immediately wanted to stabilize her emotions.
After seeing that she had no further reaction, he raised his eyes to Xu Yiping and asked, "Isn't Xu Nuo your biological son?"
Xu Yiping was taken aback, and after a while he figured it out: "Wu Hao told you guys about Liu Yi?" He smiled, mocking himself, "Yes, the promise is not my own, Wu Hao and I are two people. Before meeting Ge Hong and Liu Mei, they were single and could not give birth to such a big child."
"The Wu Hao you said earlier is probably related to the disappearance of Ge Hong and Liu Mei. Is there any evidence?"
"There is no evidence, but Wu Hao discussed with me at first, saying how to get rid of them. At that time, he proposed to get rid of them, so that our stains will be gone, and we can just get away in the future. I... I hate Ge Hong dragged me into the abyss, but he didn't hate her to the point of wanting her to die, so he refused at that time. He was still very angry at that time, and when he said that he got away, I don't blame him for not thinking about me .”
After Ji Dongge finished listening, there was no wave in his eyes: "Are you sure you don't want Ge Hong to die?"
Xu Yiping was stunned for a moment, then his eyes averted a little: "She is my wife, no matter what, I won't want her to die!"
Ji Dongge hooked the corners of his lips, his eyes turned cold.
"It's not that you don't want her to die, it's just that you don't dare to do it yourself!"
Xu Yiping seemed to have been exposed, and retorted: "What nonsense are you talking about!"
"If I'm not wrong, on the [-]th day, Liu Mei originally wanted to go to Wu Hao by herself. But you knew Wu Hao's plan, and you felt that something must happen that day, so you simply revealed some news to Ge Hong. , or more obviously, you lied that Wu Hao was emotionally abnormal. Ge Hong and Liu Mei are not only friends, but also a co-existing body of interests. She was worried about Liu Mei's accident, so she called Liu Mei after hearing what you said. Then that night, she accompanied Liu Mei to Kunshan Film and Television City."
Xu Yiping gritted his teeth and stared at Ji Dongge without making a sound.
"When we asked you to take notes before, the reason why you had that attitude was because you felt that this matter had nothing to do with you. You were not involved in it, so you are not afraid if it happens. The only vague hesitation is Ge The exact date of Hong's disappearance. You subconsciously don't want Wu Hao to be discovered by the police. After a long time like this, the disappearance case becomes an unsolved case, and you will be safer." Ji Dongge narrowed his eyes slightly, his eyes were cold, "You She covered him, and she also covered herself in disguise!"
After his words fell, Xu Yiping couldn't stand it anymore, and collapsed on the chair, like a pool of mud, his eyes were dull, and he stared up at the ceiling.
"Since you all know, why ask?"
After leaving the interrogation room, Ning Yao's mood was not stable yet.
Seeing her appearance, Ji Dongge suggested, "Why don't I go to interrogate Wu Hao myself?"
She shook her head: "I also want to hear how he is going to quibble."
"There is insufficient evidence now, and we may need to fight a tough battle next."
"I understand, but we still have a direction. Didn't Liu Yi say it before? My father and mother changed cars, and there must be a big problem with that car."
Ji Dongge nodded, didn't say any more, turned around and took Ning Yao into another interrogation room.
Compared to Xu Yiping, Wu Hao's state is much calmer.
Seeing Ji Dongge and Ning Yao come in, he just hooked his lips and sneered: "Officer, you can only detain me in the police station for 24 hours before there is no evidence to prove that I am a criminal? It has been four years since I came here." It's been five hours, why, you haven't found evidence yet?"
Ji Dongge ignored him, simply operated the equipment in the interrogation room a few times, and then the video of Xu Yiping just in the interrogation room was released.
After Wu Hao saw Xu Yiping, his expression began to change. When he heard the other party say that he was suspected of murder, his face became cold.
But he still insisted: "So, so far, you still don't have any evidence to prove that I have a motive for killing, right? Just based on a child and an accomplice of a drug dealer, you want to convict me?"
Ji Dongge looked at him calmly, and asked, "Let me make one final check. Are you sure you haven't seen Liu Mei and Ge Hong on May [-]rd or May [-]th?"
"Yes!" Wu Hao rolled his eyes and added, "We did call, but we haven't seen each other for a long time, so their disappearance has nothing to do with me!"
"How long is a long time? The specific time." Ning Yao asked.
Wu Hao's eyes moved down to the right subconsciously, and then he didn't look at them on the opposite side, subconsciously said: "It's been more than a month, we haven't seen each other for more than a month."
"you sure?"
"Yes, I'm sure!"
Ji Dongge and the others didn't say anything, they got up and wanted to leave.
Wu Hao became anxious and asked, "What do you mean? Do you still want to lock me up?"
Ning Yao turned to look at him, and said with a slight sneer, "Don't worry, haven't you already prepared for the procedure to go? When the time comes, we will let him go without evidence."
After leaving the interrogation room, Ning Yao looked straight ahead and said, "He was lying just now."
When a person is lying, his eyes will unconsciously look down to the right, which is to cover up his guilty conscience.When Wu Hao mentioned how long he and Liu Mei hadn't seen each other just now, this reaction was extremely obvious.
Ji Dongge nodded: "Now I can basically conclude that he has a great relationship with the disappearance of Liu Mei and Ge Hong. The most important thing at present is that we have to find evidence in a short time."
He walked forward quickly, and after seeing Hao Keyai, he asked, "Is Liu Yi still in the bureau?"
Hao Keai shook his head: "The child looked shocked, my colleague asked all the necessary questions, and then asked her tutor to take her home."
"Did you ask anything of value?"
"Yes." Hao Keai picked up the transcript on the table and handed it to Ji Dongge, "Liu Yi said that the last time she saw her mother was in Kunshan Film and Television City. Because Liu Mei was busy those few days, she followed Wu Hao stayed on the set, and that day Wu Hao's assistant suddenly took the car keys to Liu Mei and the others. Then Liu Mei drove Wu Hao's car and drove Ge Hong away."
"Where's Liu Mei's car?" Ning Yao asked, "Is it left in the film and television city?"
"Yes."
Ning Yao's eyes lit up, and he looked at Ji Dongge: "It seems that the car will be the key to our evidence collection!"
Ji Dongge nodded: "But seeing how confident Wu Hao was when he mentioned the evidence just now, he should have hidden that car well."
"Then you have to try it first." Ning Yao turned to look at Hao Keai, "Have you checked the surveillance in the city? Let's see what cars Liu Mei and Ge Hong drove that day."
Hao Keai pouted his chin at Ma Xiaoliang who was beside him, and the other party immediately understood, clicked the mouse a few times, and directly released the screened surveillance video.
"This is the last scene of Liu Mei and Ge Hong appearing on the surveillance camera. The time was indeed the afternoon of May [-]th, and after this section of the road is the road to Kunshan Film and Television City."
Ji Dongge asked: "Then they disappeared?"
"Correct."
Everyone didn't say any more, and looked at the surveillance carefully.
In the surveillance video, Liu Mei is sitting in the driver's seat, and Ge Hong is sitting next to her.Xu Shi was on the road under the sun, and both of them were wearing sunglasses, their faces could not be seen clearly, but judging from their attire, there was no doubt that they were the two of them.
Ji Dongge checked the license plate number, and it indeed matched Liu Mei's license plate number in the file.
Suddenly, Ning Yao seemed to have discovered something, and shouted: "Stop!"
Ma Xiaoliang quickly pressed the pause button, while Ning Yao looked at it, he pointed to the position of the front windshield of the car and said, "Here, zoom in."
After Ma Xiaoliang zoomed in on the screen according to the instructions, Ning Yao looked at it carefully for more than ten seconds, and finally raised his eyes to look at Ji Dongge.
"I've seen this car."
Ji Dongge raised his eyebrows slightly, and surprise flashed in his calm eyes.
"Where?"
"If I'm not wrong..." Ning Yao turned his gaze to the screen again, "This car is the one Feng Nanfeng repaired in the movie!"
On the way to Kunshan Film and Television City, Ning Yao was still carefully recalling the previous scene.
"This pendant is exactly the same as the one in the car in the play, and the green marks on the windshield are also arranged in the same order of color. As long as we find something in the car that can prove Liu Mei's DNA, Then Wu Hao's lie will be self-defeating!"
There was a little excitement in her eyes when she spoke, Ji Dongge looked at it calmly, as if a warm wind was blowing in her heart, she was very docile and comfortable.
Just like this, she regained her confidence and sense of accomplishment in the case little by little, and made this feeling greater than the impact of those things on her back then, so she shouldn't avoid it anymore, right?
Of course, he would not take the initiative to mention these things to her.At this moment, he just smiled and held her hand quietly.
After a group of people arrived at Kunshan Film and Television City, they were divided into two groups, one group took notes for the staff of the crew, and the other group went directly to pick up the car.
The crew still had lingering fears about what happened in the afternoon. When they saw the police, they were all shocked. They were afraid that some dirty water would be splashed on them, so they cooperated with the police's questioning and did not hide anything.
After asking a few people, Ji Dongge and Ning Yao were able to confirm that Wu Hao personally provided the car to the props team. As for the source, no one knew.Because the filming is more than halfway done, and the scene of repairing the car is almost finished, so Wu Hao called the vehicle scrapping office a few days ago and registered the car for scrapping.
In other words, if they found this clue a few days later, the evidence might really be gone.
Later, Ji Dongge and Ning Yao searched around in the car, and finally found a burnt cigarette butt in the corner.
"Wu Hao should have cleaned this car. Fortunately, the place where the cigarette butt fell off is special, otherwise there would be no trace." Ning Yao said.
Ji Dongge nodded, took out his mobile phone and called Ma Xiaoliang: "We have found evidence that can prove Liu Mei's DNA. You can go to Liu Mei's house now and get some toothbrushes or combs she used for comparison."
After bringing the evidence back to the police station and handing it over to the forensic doctor, Ning Yao felt relieved.
She sat on the sofa and thumped her shoulders, feeling a little tired.
"Are you hungry?" Ji Dongge sat next to her.
She shook her head, she was in a state of high tension all day, how could she still feel hungry.
Ji Dongge grabbed her waist and pressed her head into his arms: "Sleep for a while if you're not hungry."
This position was too intimate, just like when they were passionately in love, she couldn't bear it, and struggled to get up.
But how could he allow it, the strength in his hand increased, and when he spoke again, there was a hint of oppression in his tone: "At first I was afraid that you would not get used to it after being separated for so long, so I didn't dare to come up. But you have already Come back with me, and when we separated before, we didn't break up."
His arm around her waist was getting stronger and stronger, as if he wanted to wrap her whole body in his arms, his thin lips pressed against her ears, and he said in a deep voice, "So, I'm still your man, You have no reason to stop us from being intimate."
In fact, he originally didn't want to do it so quickly, the previous kiss was just the result of his loss of control.But today they experienced too many things, he almost lost her.This kind of panic spread in his heart and could not be subdued for a long time.So he didn't want to wait any longer, and he couldn't wait any longer.
She is now in a state of pushing one step at a time. If this is the case, there is no need for him to wait for her to figure it out, and take the initiative to approach her to ease the relationship.
Thinking of this, he lightly touched her earlobe and kissed her.
The warm and electric breath made her tremble uncontrollably, and she wanted to push him away again, but what she got in exchange was still a tighter hug.
"Actually, you should be glad that we have been involved in cases since we came back, otherwise you think I would let you go so easily?"
Ning Yao was stunned for a moment, and instantly understood the meaning of his words, his cheeks flushed, and the calmness and composure he had pretended almost directly failed.
She felt in a daze that Ji Dongge had returned to the state when they were not separated, domineering, strong, and at the same time infinitely gentle and tolerant towards her.
Inexplicably, this familiar feeling made her heart tremble violently.
After a while, when she thought of the purpose of coming back this time, the restlessness disappeared instantly.
Leaning in his arms, she gradually calmed down, without struggling any more, she fell asleep peacefully in that position.
Ji Dongge looked down at her side face, couldn't help kissing her lightly, and said in a low voice, "I wish you were always so good."
The forensic doctor did the comparison overnight, and finally sent the DNA test report in the early morning of the next day.
The report showed that the similarity of the DNA taken from the two samples was as high as 99.9%.So this report, as well as the monitoring records of Liu Mei and Ge Hong's last appearance, can already prove that the car belongs to Liu Mei.
And Wu Hao lied from beginning to end.
Wu Hao remained silent after seeing these evidences.Ning Yao and the others were not in a hurry, they just sorted out the documents slowly, and finally saw that he hadn't opened his mouth, so they said: "You can continue to keep silent, anyway, we have a direction now, at worst, run to the crew again and ask Just ask who are the actors who were close to you before, and then give them some urine tests, and then..."
Before she finished speaking, Wu Hao lost control.
He yelled: "No! No! You can't go to them! They've been exposed, and I'm done too! I've climbed to this position with great difficulty, and I can make the movie I want to make with great difficulty, I can't just fall down like this ! My movie career can't end like this!"
Ji Dongge's eyes were cold, and he stared at him closely: "Do you think you still have the possibility of making a movie? Drug trafficking! Intended murder! Saying anything is a capital offense!"
Wu Hao inserted his hands between his hair, bent his waist slightly, and lowered his head, his whole body was full of decadence.
"I can't do this... It's hard to come here now, I can't just fail like this... I can't... I can't..." Ning Yao knocked on the table twice, his eyes were extremely sharp: "It's useless for you to escape, now With witnesses and evidence, you have no other choice but to confess!"
At this point, a gleam of hope flashed in her eyes: "We did not find out the surveillance records of Liu Mei and Ge Hong going down the mountain, maybe...you didn't intend to harm them, but just imprisoned them?"
Wu Hao seemed to have lost his soul, thought for a long time, and finally shook his head: "They should be dead."
Seemingly knowing that he had no room for sophistry, he stopped wasting time and began to talk about his crime process.
"My motive for committing the crime, Xu Yiping has said before. The reason why I want to kill her is because she has been relying on me and won't let go. I'm tired of that life of fear, not to mention my film career It's getting better and better, I climb higher and higher, and I don't want to fall again! So, I took a risk."
After Wu Hao made a murderous attempt on Liu Mei, he often looked for opportunities to go home, while observing Liu Mei's daily habits, while thinking about how to attack Liu Mei without anyone noticing.By chance, Liu Yi read an extracurricular book that attracted him. It described how the murderer used a modified car to commit murder.As if he had found an opportunity, he returned to the set and began to make arrangements.
He tampered with his car, and after preparing everything, he called Liu Mei, saying that there was something wrong with his car, and asked her to help drive down to fix it.And after Liu Mei passed by that day, he pretended to be very busy, handed over the car keys to the assistant, and asked the assistant to pass them on.He originally thought that the news of Liu Mei and Ge Hong's accident would come soon, but for some reason, he waited for a day and a night, but he still didn't get the result he wanted.Until later, two co-stars in the crew suddenly discussed in a low voice. It seemed that that night, someone saw a car fall into the sea at the bottom of the mountain.
It was then that he suddenly realized that things seemed to be different from what he expected, but after thinking about it again, if it was true what they said, the result would be even better than what he expected.
This kind of thought made him a little carried away, and he erased the evidence against him bit by bit-he took off the license plate of Liu Mei's car, buried it in the back mountain of the film and television city, and then directly provided the car to the props team.After all, the more dangerous the place, the safer it is.The assistant who handed over the keys for him was also sent abroad by him to help him negotiate several projects, and he had no time to return to China in the short term.
After doing all this, he even called the police, pretending to report to the police that his wife was missing, and at that time, it happened to coincide with a woman abduction case in the city...
He felt that everything was God's will.Liu Mei and the others should be damned, so he killed them, and even God was helping him deal with the aftermath!
After that, he kept hinting to himself, and even changed the script again and again, and once regarded the murderer in it as himself, and kept cleansing it.
It's just that he didn't expect that no matter how strong the psychological suggestion was, no matter how many coincidences, in the end...he couldn't escape the police's pursuit.
He slumped on the chair, and his short adult life kept reappearing in his mind like a fast-forward camera: Unwillingness—meeting Liu Mei—cautiously probing at the edge of the law—tasting the sweetness brought by money ——Slowly emerging in the industry I love until now.
He seemed to be working very hard and had been working hard for his dream, but now that he thought about it, it seemed that there was nothing left that was worthy of his repeated memories.
And the career he valued the most has become unrecognizable because of the mixture of desire.His unscrupulous methods eventually harmed himself.
After walking out of the interrogation room, Ning Yao's mood was very complicated.
Wu Hao seems to be the epitome of a typical type of person in today's society. Under the banner of dreams, he uses opportunistic and shady means to make himself profitable, gaining social recognition and a sense of accomplishment.
The outcome of such people is mostly predictable.
"If you want to realize your dream, you still have to be down-to-earth, otherwise, like him, the things you shoot will distort the three views, and something will happen sooner or later." Ning Yao sighed.
Her voice fell for a long time, but Ji Dongge did not respond.
She looked back at him in a little surprise, and asked, "What are you thinking?"
"Don't you think there are still a few doubts in this case?"
"You mean Wu Hao's previous denial of the time of the incident?"
Ji Dongge nodded, his handsome side face was a little serious: "Yes, how could a person with a thorough plan make such a low-level mistake as misreading the time? And there are two details..."
He paused, his eyes became dark: "He said he gave the key to the assistant, but why did Liu Yi hand it over in the end? Also, he found the way to kill people because he happened to see an extra-curricular book written by Liu Yi And the reason why I doubted him at the beginning was because Liu Yi called to say that Liu Mei went to look for him before he disappeared, and I happened to hear it."
"what do you mean?"
"One coincidence is understandable, two coincidences are acceptable, but so many coincidences..." Ji Dongge's face became more and more gloomy, "then we have to think carefully about whether these are coincidences or not."
Ji Dongge and Ning Yao stayed together for two days and one night, and considering Ning Yao's foot injury, Ji Dongge decided to take her home to rest for a night, and then think about the rest after waking up.
After arriving home, Ning Yao was truly relaxed, and the exhaustion that he didn't feel before was infinitely magnified at this moment.She limped to the sofa and sat down, her body limp into a pool of mud.
Ji Dongge took two sets of pajamas out of the bedroom, threw one to her, and changed the other by himself.
He took off his T-shirt in front of her, and instantly exposed his lean waist and muscular chest muscles to the air. His skin was not a healthy honey color like that of ordinary men, but it was the same as his face, very white.
Ning Yao's cheeks became hot, and he looked away: "Can you go into the bedroom and change?"
Ji Dongge raised his eyebrows slightly, but his hands didn't stop. He even took off his pants in front of her: "Did we meet honestly less often before? Why are you awkward?" He said, Stretching his long legs to the cuffs of his trousers, he put on his gray pajamas in a few strokes. He didn't care about the pajamas left on the sofa, and walked towards the kitchen topless.
"Tomato and egg noodles?"
"Whatever." Ning Yao didn't look at him, and walked to the bathroom with his pajamas.
Ji Dongge looked at her back, a successful smile flashed in his eyes.Sure enough, his previous method was too roundabout and too gentle. To deal with a stubborn person like her, he should be more direct and forceful.
They had been separated for so long, and he didn't want to waste any more time repairing their estranged relationship.Anyway, in his eyes, her departure was only temporary, and the state of the two should be as close as before.
He didn't want to give her time to adapt, and there was no need for her to adapt.
When Ning Yao came out after taking a shower, Ji Dongge had already cooked the noodles.
Two bowls of spaghetti and egg noodles with little soup were placed on the dining table. The noodles were stained red by the soup of spaghetti, and they were soft and rotten placed in the porcelain bowl. Poached eggs.
Ning Yao used to like the noodles he cooked very much, but now he was really hungry, so he didn't say much, and sat directly at the dining table.
She picked out a chopstick of noodles and put them into her mouth, the slightly sour and fragrant taste instantly spread on the tip of her tongue. This hot and familiar feeling made her heart warm inexplicably.
Ji Dongge didn't move his chopsticks. He sat across from him and lit a cigarette. His handsome face with sharp lines was hidden in the thin smoke, and he stared at her quietly.
Seeing him not moving, she raised her eyes and looked over: "Why don't you eat?"
"I'm afraid you don't have enough to eat." He flicked the cigarette ash and said.
She glared at him, and replied: "I've said it all, now my appetite is not as big as before."
He couldn't help curling the corners of his lips, and put the cigarette butt out in the ashtray: "It's okay, you've always had a bird's stomach." Then, he picked up the chopsticks and put the fried egg in his bowl into Ning Yao's. in the bowl.
The fried egg tasted really good, so she didn't hesitate to put it in her mouth and took a bite.
She chewed and asked, "Shall we go directly to the film and television city tomorrow?"
Ji Dongge didn't raise his head, and replied: "Yes. Didn't Wu Hao say that Liu Mei and Ge Hong drove into the sea and fell into the sea from the mouths of two extras? The department has not received a report, so the possibility of false dissemination of news cannot be ruled out, and we will investigate tomorrow."
"Yes, I also find it strange. If someone really saw a car crashing into the sea, how could they not call the police?"
When she was talking, she happened to hold a chopstick of noodles in the air, but when she talked about the case, the movement of her hands suddenly stopped, with a thoughtful expression, and her hands did not move.
Seeing her serious and serious look, he couldn't help but think of her appearance when she was handling the case before, his heart moved, and he got up suddenly.
Across the dining table, his tall, slender figure pressed towards her, his head tilted slightly, and his thin lips covered her red lips.
Ning Yao was a little surprised, and stared at him with almond eyes, only to see that his dark eyes were smiling at her, his mouth was slightly opened, and he gently held her upper lip.
This kiss contained no lust, only intimacy, and he didn't even give her a chance to react, and he straightened up in just a few seconds.
She looked at him silently, her expression was not as relaxed as before, her eyes seemed to be accusing.But he didn't respond at all, instead he said: "What's your expression? You didn't want to get close to me in front of everyone at the police station, so now I can kiss you when I go home?"
Her expression was a little cold, she lowered her head and stopped looking at him, and replied, "You clearly know what I'm thinking."
Ji Dongge's expression couldn't be maintained anymore, his lips were slightly pursed, and he stared at her quietly: He knew, how could he not know!He knew what she was thinking from the moment she rejected him and came back from him.
But so what?He reached out to caress her cheek, gently wiped off the soup from the corner of her mouth with his thumb, looked at her deeply, and said, "When you left, we didn't break up."
The implication is that what he does now is reasonable and reasonable, and it is a right that a boyfriend should have.
She understood what he meant, and holding the chopsticks with her fingers, she quietly stirred the noodles in the bowl.
"And then? In the past three months, we have had a short period of affection, and when the time is up, we will tear apart like before?"
"You think too much, it is impossible for us to separate again." His eyes darkened, and he stared at her closely, "We have been separated for nearly a year, and you have no other skills, but my kung fu is first-rate."
Ning Yao looked calm, met his gaze, and said, "It's not nearly a year, but a whole year and seven days. Before the serial murder happened, we hadn't seen each other for nearly three months."
What she said surprised Ji Dongge: "So? What else do you want to say?"
Ning Yao sighed inaudibly, and turned to look out the window: "Did you think that you were the only one who suffered in that parting? I was heartless from the beginning to the end, otherwise how could I just give up everything I had? ?”
Ji Dongge didn't speak, just looked at her quietly.
"In fact, wandering outside for nearly a year is longer for me than the past twenty years of my life. Apart from working hard every day, I want to find the evidence and find the murderer as soon as possible, and I am still worried about you Your safety." She said, her eyes were a little sad, "I don't want to return to a normal life? I also want to. But I have lost my master, and I can no longer selfishly ignore your safety. Now that any one of you has an accident, I will There is no way to bear it."
She spoke the truth, but Ji Dongge was not moved at all after hearing it.
He even smiled and replied: "You don't need to dig a hole for me. I taught you the tactics of slowing down the army and retreating to advance. You still don't believe in yourself or me."
She hung her head and said nothing, as if by default.
Ji Dongge held back the depression and irritability in his heart, stood up calmly, and said, "Go back to your room to rest after eating."
He dumped the uneaten noodles in the bowl directly into the trash can, then turned around and walked to the living room, where he curled his legs and nestled on the sofa.
Seeing him like this, Ning Yao knew that he was secretly competing with her again and got angry.It's just that she's not in the mood to coax or persuade him right now, and after eating up the noodles in the bowl in a few mouthfuls, she went back to the bedroom.
When he heard the sound of closing the door, Ji Dongge raised his eyelids, and after glancing at the closed door, the pent-up anger in his heart became heavier.
At this moment, the bedroom door suddenly opened again, Ning Yao took out a blanket and carefully covered Ji Dongge's body.
After she left, the person who was pretending to be asleep suddenly opened his eyes and looked at the blanket on his body. His cold expression gradually softened, and there was even a hint of a smile at the corner of his mouth.
He pulled the blanket up, closed his eyes again, and had a dreamless night.
Early the next morning, Ji Dongge and Ning Yao did not report to the police station, but drove to the film and television city.After investigating in the entire film and television city, they got the result that only a few close staff members around Wu Hao knew about the car crashing into the mountain.Who sent the news in the first place, but they don't know.
On the way back, Ning Yao frowned tightly.
"I always feel that the news is fake, someone told Wu Hao deliberately."
Ji Dongge tapped his fingers on the steering wheel and didn't speak, but his expression seemed to be acquiescing.
"Also, I just suddenly thought of a point we had forgotten before." She turned her head to look at Ji Dongge, "Do you still remember what you promised at that time? We thought he was threatened by Xu Yiping, so we would I said those words for Xu Yiping. But now that I think about it, Xu Yiping can't remember the vague date, how could Xu Nuo remember it so clearly?"
"Yes, so there must be someone behind Wu Hao who is controlling the whole case, even controlling the process of his crime, and guiding us quietly." Ji Dongge said.
Ning Yao thought about it for a while, and then, as if suddenly realizing something, she suddenly turned her head to look at him.
"What if... we misjudged the date of the victim's disappearance in the first place?"
Ji Dongge instantly understood what she meant.At the beginning, they would be the first to determine the date of the victim's disappearance, because they learned the date of Ge Hong's disappearance from Xu Nuo.In addition, the monitoring video of the road section was retrieved later, and the last date Liu Mei and Ge Hong appeared in it was also May [-]th, but if the promise is false, the video may not be completely true!
Thinking of this, he stepped on the gas pedal and exerted force, and the car drove towards the police station even faster.
After returning, the first thing they did was to retrieve the surveillance video of May [-]th.
This time, they observed more carefully than before, and they didn't even miss the pictures of the rest of the road. During the several hours' journey, as long as the surveillance cameras captured pictures of Liu Mei and Ge Hong, they would watch them repeatedly.
Suddenly, Ji Dongge yelled sharply: "Stop!"
Then, he rewound the video just a few seconds ago, and zoomed in on Liu Mei's picture.
On the screen, Liu Mei's forehead that was originally covered by bangs was exposed due to the wind, and a small black mole on the forehead also appeared faintly.
Ji Dongge stared at the video without looking away, stretched out his hand towards Ning Yao, and said, "Give me Liu Mei's information and photos."
Ning Yao hurriedly searched for documents and photos, and handed them to him directly when he found them.He looked at it carefully, compared it with the video, and finally pointed to Liu Mei on the video, and said, "This person should not be Liu Mei, the real Liu Mei doesn't have a mole on her forehead at all."
Everyone was taken aback, and they scrambled to pick up the documents and photos to see. Sure enough, Liu Mei in the photo had a neat ponytail, her forehead was smooth and fair, and there was no mole at all!
Ning Yao came to his senses in an instant, looked at Ma Xiaoliang, and said, "You immediately transfer the surveillance video of May [-]rd from the traffic police team, especially the one near the main line of Kunshan Film and Television City!"
Ten minutes later, the traffic police sent over the surveillance video.After clicking on the video, everyone held their breath. Two minutes later, the figures of Liu Mei and Ge Hong reappeared, and their attires were almost exactly the same as those in the May 2th video!
Ji Dongge and Ning Yao raised their heads tacitly, their eyes met in mid-air, and they were silent for a while.
Finally, Ji Dongge said: "We will go to interrogate Wu Hao immediately and ask him the exact location where Liu Mei's license plate was buried!"
Later, according to Wu Hao, he buried the license plate under a big tree on the back mountain of the film and television city, because the light there was too dark, and few film crews would go there to shoot scenes, so it was not easy to be found there.
After Ma Xiaoliang and the others got this information, they rushed over without stopping, but they almost dug out the soil around the tree, and they couldn't find the license plate he had hidden.
Ji Dongge and Ning Yao didn't seem too surprised when they got the news.
Ning Yao looked at the surveillance video on May [-]th again, and calmly said: "Now we can be sure that there is a real culprit behind Wu Hao."
Ji Dongge nodded: "Not only that, that person should be very familiar with Wu Hao, and he can come and go from his side at will without being noticed."
"I know who you're talking about." Ning Yao pursed his lips, and the figure of Liu Yi's child appeared in his mind, "But I still think... Liu Yi was only in junior high school, so he wouldn't do such a thoughtful thing. And , she has no reason to hurt her mother."
"According to the current development of the situation, we can no longer use normal thinking to think about problems." He stood up, picked up the car keys on the table, "Let's go, let's go to Liu Yi's school to talk to the teacher first."
Today is the weekend and the students are on vacation, but Liu Yi's head teacher is still on duty at school.
The teacher in charge was a very elegant middle-aged man who looked very decent and gentle. When he heard the two came to ask about Liu Yi's daily situation in school, he couldn't help but look at them a few more times.
"Did something happen to Liu Yi?"
Ning Yao quickly shook his head: "No, it's just that the case of her mother's disappearance is still pending, and we're just investigating the situation as a matter of routine."
The head teacher nodded in understanding, then recalled for a few seconds, and put the tea mug in his hand on the table.
He said: "That kid Liu Yi is indeed a little different from ordinary kids."
According to the class teacher's words, Liu Yi is a somewhat anxious child, and he is very good at lying.On weekdays, when classmates or teachers point out some of her shortcomings, she will forcefully refute, and occasionally even rise to verbal violence.Moreover, she lacks initiative in her studies, often copies her classmates' homework, is not active in class, and is very slack.
Speaking of this, the head teacher seemed to have thought of something, and said again: "Also, that child seems to be very afraid of the sound of the clock. During a lunch break, she was afraid of oversleeping, so she asked her deskmate to help keep track of the time. Later she When she went out to play ball at the table, she set the time of her small alarm clock and placed it on her table. Unexpectedly, when she heard the sound of the alarm clock, she trembled with fright, and even smashed the small alarm clock at the same table. "
After hearing this, Ji Dongge and Ning Yao glanced at each other.
Then, Ning Yao asked again: "Then is she usually dependent on her parents?"
"Not strong. The cafeteria in our school will provide students with lunch, but most of the parents of the children will also bring some cut fruits to the students. Her words... I have never seen it once. There are also the last two parent-teacher meetings, None of her parents came. I called the parent contact phone number she left behind, and it wasn't her parents who answered the phone, but her tutor."
The two kept these words in their hearts, and then asked about some daily things, Ji Dongge and Ning Yao got up and said goodbye.
Before leaving, Ji Dongge said: "The case is still under investigation. I hope you can keep the matter of our coming to you for questioning this time."
The head teacher nodded quickly: "I understand, I understand, I will definitely cooperate with your work."
After walking out of the office, Ning Yao said directly: "Liu Yi should be a child who grew up under the shadow of domestic violence."
She lacks initiative, escapes from life, and has no dependence on her parents... These abnormalities are very common when taken apart, but together they resemble the characteristics of children who have been subjected to domestic violence.
and……
"She should be a PD patient just like Xu Nuo." Ji Dongge said calmly.
Ning Yao nodded: "Yes."
She thought for a while, and said to herself: "But what exactly has she experienced that made her so afraid of clocks and watches?"
"There's no need to think about these carefully. What we should think about now is whether Liu Yi is the person behind Wu Hao."
Although there are various indications that the whole case has a great connection with her, just as Ning Yao worried, Ji Dongge also feels that a child as old as her should not have such meticulous thinking and strong execution ability .
"If it wasn't her, who would it be?" Ning Yao thought as he walked, "But now that I think about it carefully, the parents of the two children know each other and they are both suspected of domestic violence. Maybe Xu Xu's original words were really true. I said it because of Liu Yi...or maybe, the murderer was someone he and Liu Yi knew together..."
Speaking of this, Ning Yao suddenly stopped in his tracks, and Ji Dongge at the side also seemed to have an epiphany, slowly raised his head, and met her eyes.
Adults who have strict logical thinking and strong case execution ability, and have close contact with Xu Nuo and Liu Yi, besides their respective parents, there is another person - their common tutor, Jiang Ping!
Jiang Ping's daily life is very simple. He goes to school, works as a tutor, and goes home.He is studying in one of the medical universities in the city, and usually he is a commuter and does not live on campus.
Just after class, he said goodbye to his close classmates with a smile as usual, and then rode home alone.
Ji Dongge drove the car and followed him not far or near.Ning Yao in the passenger seat took the materials that Ma Xiaoliang and the others had just sent, and looked through them carefully.
"According to the data, Jiang Ping was a child with excellent character and learning since he was a child. When he first entered college, he wrote many research papers and won awards." When she said this, she narrowed her eyes slightly and looked at the information in front of her eyes. Together, "Most of the topics above are to call on the society to pay attention to those children who have suffered domestic violence, and to pay attention to their future growth..."
Ji Dongge has a serious expression, his eyes are dim and unclear.
After a while, he slammed the steering wheel and turned the car around.
"Inform Ma Xiaoliang and the others that we will go to Jiang Ping's parents, and they will take over from us and continue to monitor Jiang Ping."
This document contains information about Jiang Ping's parents, which shows that his mother died when he was young, and he has been living with his father.My father was a truck driver earlier, and has been driving a taxi for the past two years.
When looking for a taxi shop, the two did not directly identify their identities, but only said that they wanted to meet Jiang Ping's father.When the driver who wanted to receive them heard it, he said with a little surprise: "Don't you know? Jiang Feng asked for sick leave, saying that he had some kind of tumor on his body, and his relatives took him to other provinces for treatment."
"Ask for leave? Did he tell the boss himself?" Ning Yao asked.
The driver shook his head: "That's not true, it was his son who called."
Ji Dongge's jaw line was a little tight, and his expression was serious: "Then do you remember how long he was on leave?"
The driver thought for a while, and finally said: "It should be more than a month."
When they got out of the taxi, Ning Yao and Ji Dongge were silent for a while.
After a while, she spoke first: "Jiang Ping's father should have disappeared together with Liu Mei and Ge Hong."
Ji Dongge glanced at the continuous flow of traffic in front of him, and gave a soft "hmm": "And judging from the current situation, Jiang Ping has sufficient motives for committing the crime."
Ning Yao looked far ahead, quickly filtering the information and clues he had obtained in the past few days in his mind, and finally frowned in doubt: "If Jiang Ping's goal is to kill Liu Mei and Ge Hong, then he doesn't need to worry about it afterwards. Find someone to spread the news of the car falling into the mountain to Wu Hao. Anyway, he has already killed someone with a knife, so it is pointless for him to do anything else, and it is easier to attract the attention of the police. He should not be so stupid, unless..."
Ji Dongge answered in a timely manner: "Unless he wants everyone to think that Liu Mei and Ge Hong really got into an accident because they got in that car, including Wu Hao himself."
"Yes." Speaking of this, Ning Yao frowned even tighter, "But Wu Hao also said that he tampered with that car, so how did Jiang Ping manage to avoid accidents without knowing it? Unknowingly taking people and cars away? We checked Wu Hao’s car before, and after the incident, it never appeared in the surveillance section of the city, as if it really disappeared from the mountain.”
After pondering for a moment, Ji Dongge said, "What if Liu Mei and Ge Hong didn't get in that car?"
His words seemed to have opened up Ning Yao's thinking, and she stared at him with wide eyes: "If that's the case, then Wu Hao's car should still be in the film and television city!"
After she finished speaking, she grabbed his wrist: "Come on, let's find a car."
Ji Dongge looked at her, pursed his lips and smiled, then looked down, and looked at her hand covering his wrist, with the palm facing up, he turned it so that her palm fell into his own.
She originally wanted to break away from his hand, but after thinking about the quarrel between the two last night, she finally let him in silence.
As a result, the smile on Ji Dongge's lips became more intense.
Ji Dongge informed Ma Xiaoliang and the others that, except for the group monitoring Jiang Ping, the rest of the team would come to Kunshan Film and Television City to help find the car.
Because the film and television city is too big, and there are too many people and chaos, if they have too few people, things will be really difficult.
After going up the mountain, Ning Yao told those colleagues again, telling them not to reveal their identities for the time being.Everyone understood the confidentiality of this case and nodded in agreement.
And the two of them were not idle, they went up the mountain together with their colleagues, and after arriving at the film and television city, they began to split up.
They first briefly scanned the cars on the open space outside the film and television city, but they couldn't find what they were looking for. All got nothing.
Two or three hours passed, and everyone experienced excitement and disappointment.Ning Yao stood on the steps and looked around, with a slightly sad expression.
"Are we heading in the wrong direction?"
Ji Dongge stood next to her, did not speak, squinted his eyes slightly, and looked at the parking space in the distance.
Suddenly, he walked down the steps, took a step with his long legs, the soles of his feet were like the wind, and walked quickly to a corner of the parking lot.
Ning Yao felt that the place he went to looked familiar, it seemed to be the place where they had parked the car when they first came here.She still remembers now that they were sandwiched between two cars, a Cayenne and a…
Her thoughts came to an abrupt stop here, and her originally slack eyes suddenly became clear, staring fixedly at Ji Dongge.
I saw him standing in front of the car covered with a gray cloth, without hesitation, he raised his hand and pulled the cloth.
"My car is an Audi A6, license plate number: C-6689, and a string of prayer beads hangs in front of the windshield."
Ning Yao approached quickly, recalling those characteristics in his mind while walking, and then checked them one by one with the car under the car cloth.
Audi A6...
C-6689...
Beads...
Everything is right!
Ning Yao was so excited that her scalp was a little numb, she looked at Ji Dongge: "We guessed right!"
Not only did they guess right, she even felt that the case was very dramatic now.It turned out that the crucial evidence of the case had passed them by at the beginning.
In contrast, Ji Dongge's reaction was much calmer. After silently looking at the car body for a few moments, he put the car cloth back on.
Ning Yao thought about the meaning of his actions, and finally asked tentatively: "Do you want...to invite you into the urn?"
The movements of his subordinates didn't stop, and his eyes were indifferent: "Yes."
In a dark room, two women and a man were sitting on the floor with their hands and feet bound.Their faces were pale, their hair was greasy and messy, and the clothes on their bodies seemed to have not been changed for a long time, emitting a foul smell.
Their limbs, chest and back were covered with large and small wounds and bruises, and their cheeks were slightly red and swollen, as if they had been beaten for a long time.
At first, the few people were still powerlessly drowsy, but suddenly, there was a faint sound, the sound of a key being inserted into the lock, it was not loud, but it was like a saw dipped in salt, stabbing their hearts one by one.
For a few seconds, they were so nervous that they even forgot to breathe, staring at the door that was about to open.
crunch.
The door opened slowly, and a gentle and handsome face appeared behind the light.He smiled slightly, that smile was obviously very gentle, but in the eyes of several people, it couldn't help but make people shiver.
The young man walked up to several people in a few steps, and slowly squatted down when they kept rubbing back against each other in panic.
He patted one of the women's faces, and his smile deepened.
"I heard that when Liu Yi was young, you often locked her in an empty house with no one around?"
The woman couldn't help shaking her head in fright, her eyes looked down in horror, fixedly staring at the hand resting on her face, that gaze was very much like staring at a poisonous snake that spit out a letter.
But the young man seemed to have not seen her reaction, and continued to talk to himself: "Liu Yi said that she still remembers that there was nothing in the empty house except for a wall clock on the wall, and her words echoed. During the days when she was locked in, she was very scared every day, and later, she even lost control when she heard the sound of the clock ticking."
The young man's smile became brighter and brighter, and his eyebrows and eyes were even stained with a little smile.
"Then let's play something different today." He said, he got up and went out, and when he came back, he held a few small alarm clocks and some unknown objects covered in bags.
He tied the unknown objects around the waists of several people in turn, then fixed the alarm clock on the unknown objects with scotch tape, and finally removed the bag above.
Several people involuntarily looked at their waists, all anxious to know what was on their bodies.
And the moment their eyes came into contact with that thing, the eyes of several people couldn't help but widen, and there were bursts of wailing sounds from their mouths that were taped.
What was strapped to their bodies...was clearly a time bomb!
The young man seemed very satisfied with his work. He squatted down and looked at it again, and said, "Ordinary clocks should be useless to you, right? Then let's play with these exciting things. For the next few days, I will tie clocks on you every day." I have set a [-]-hour time limit for this thing, if I don’t come after this time, if I don’t cancel the time limit for you, then you can think of the next thing, right?”
At that moment, he pulled the corners of his lips and smiled like a hellish devil.
"Wish you guys good luck."
Later Ning Yao notified Liu Yi of the outcome of the case by phone.
After she heard that Wu Hao was the real culprit who killed her mother, she didn't seem to react much. After a while of silence, she suddenly asked: "Uncle, aunt, is my mother not coming back?"
Ning Yao didn't know whether she was acting in a play or asking this question sincerely.
Afterwards, she told Ji Dongge about it.With a cigarette in his mouth, he kept flipping through the case materials with his fingers, without raising his head, he said: "Liu Yi knows the whole process of the case because she participated in it from beginning to end, but she probably doesn't know about Liu Mei and Ge Hong. What is the situation now. Maybe the murderer wants to talk to her, but she doesn't want to hear it."
"In other words, she just wanted Liu Mei to disappear from her life, and she didn't really want to kill Liu Mei."
"Correct."
Ning Yao leaned back, thought for a while, and said, "Is the purpose of the promise more simple? I remember that when we first went to his house to take notes, what he defended Xu Yiping was 'Mom is not dead, she Will definitely be back'."
Ji Dongge nodded: "Yes, Xu Nuo is young and can't control his emotions well. It is impossible for the murderer to hand over all the plans to him."
"But it's useless for us to think so much now."
Ning Yao beat his neck and glanced out the car window: "Liu Yi should have brought the news to Jiang Ping, right? I don't know if he will take action tonight."
"Yes." Ji Dongge's expression was calm, "Smart people know how to use everything available. I checked the weather, and today is a red warning for thunder and lightning."
Ning Yao didn't realize it at first, but then he turned his mind and suddenly realized.
"did you mean……"
Ji Dongge nodded: "Yes."
They waited from daytime to evening, and sure enough, the heavy rain mentioned in the weather forecast came.
Their car was hidden in an inconspicuous little corner, and there was constant lightning in the sky, and the trees in front of them were violently swayed by the strong wind.A few big thunders fell, and many cars in the parking space began to sound alarms, and the scene became a bit scary for a while.
It may be due to the weather that the various production crews closed work ahead of schedule.They waited for a while, and saw many people driving their cars down the mountain in the heavy rain.Not long after, there were only two cars left on the open space, one was an ordinary cargo van, and the other was an Audi covered in cloth.
Ning Yao looked at the time, it was 21:22.
When she was worried that they would return without success today, a figure suddenly broke into their sight.
Seen from a distance, the man was thin and tall, wearing an army green raincoat, holding a baseball bat in his hand, walking quietly towards the car like a ghost.
The next moment, he tore the cloth off the car violently, then raised the baseball bat in his hand, and slammed it on the car body!
Ning Yao was taken aback. As expected by Ji Dongge, the murderer immediately came to deal with the car after learning that Wu Hao had been convicted.
But because the car was tampered with by Wu Hao, he couldn't drive it away, so there was only one way left, which was to destroy the car.However, ordinary man-made sabotage will definitely be reported to the police after being discovered, and it will be difficult to describe him in the end, but if it is pretended to be a natural disaster, and combined with the early warning weather at the right time and place, then everything will be seamless.No one will check a car damaged by an unknown object in a storm, as long as the license plate is removed, and everything that can represent the characteristics of the car is taken away, this is an abandoned car that no one knows and no one claims !
The ending is predictable.
Seeing that the people over there smashed harder and harder, Ji Dongge took out the gun from his waist and opened the car door.
"It's time to close the net."
The police station's group moved very lightly. Coupled with the weather, he didn't notice until they surrounded the person who smashed the car.
Hao Keyai and Ma Xiaoliang raised their guns and shouted in the rain: "Police!"
The man froze for a moment, turned around mechanically, and revealed his face.
Sure enough, that person was Liu Yihe's tutor, Jiang Ping.
After taking people back to the police station, everyone was almost soaked.
But they are a group of big men, strong and strong, and there is nothing wrong with wet clothes.
It's Ning Yao...
In particular, the T-shirt on her body was wet, clinging to her skin, and the black underwear on her chest was faintly visible, making her originally bumpy figure even more sexy.
After Ji Dongge realized it, his face turned green, and 1 regretted letting her get out of the car and arrest people with them.So on the way back to the police station, he kept a sullen face.When he arrived at the police station and was about to get out of the car, he pinned her on the car and was not allowed to move. He got out of the car alone to get the towel and the spare clothes he left in the station, and after a lot of trouble, he put them on for her himself.
During the process, he never looked sideways, his expression was very upright and gentlemanly, without any ambiguity at all.But Ning Yao changed his clothes in front of him, but still felt very uncomfortable.
Fortunately, the dim light in the carriage made her somewhat embarrassed.
When they walked into the police station, the big guys saw Ning Yao's clothes and started whistling and booing.
Ma Xiaoliang took the lead, and said with a smile: "Sister Ning, as expected, Teacher Ji's clothes are still the same as before, and they are only suitable for you! Hahaha!"
Ning Yao's face became hot for a while, and he didn't pay much attention to the group of onlookers. He wiped his hair with a towel and walked towards the interrogation room.
Ji Dongge looked at the group of colleagues making trouble from behind, and for the first time, he didn't lose his temper.
With his hands in his pockets, he glanced at them lazily with his long and narrow eyes, with a slight smile on his lips.
"Are you tired of living?"
He was in a good mood at first glance, so his colleagues would not care about what he said, and continued to laugh.
But Ji Dongge didn't pay much attention to them, and hurried to chase Ning Yao.
Ning Yao entered the interrogation room two steps ahead of him, and saw Jiang Ping sitting on a chair in handcuffs with a numb face. When he saw her come in, he raised his eyelids.
"Officer, I just destroyed a famous car for private reasons, the big deal is to compensate for the price, so you won't have to work hard in the middle of the night to arrest me, right?"
Her face was not as relaxed as she was outside just now, her eyes were cold, and she sat opposite him, flipping through the documents in her hand.
"According to the information we got, Wu Hao said that the crime was committed on May [-]rd. We adjusted the surveillance at the entrance of the film and television city that day, and you showed up."
"Liu Yi stayed in the film and television city at that time. I went there to give her extra lessons. Is there any problem?" Jiang Ping replied slowly.
Ning Yao smiled: "Of course there is no problem with this, but we checked the surveillance again, and the two people who appeared in Liu Mei's car on May [-]th were not themselves! Our colleagues used the facial recognition system and quickly found out The specific information of those two people. But unfortunately, those two people seem to have gone abroad. We checked their accounts again, and got some interesting clues."
She pushed the information investigated by her colleagues to Jiang Ping, and said: "The two of you have received several remittances before and after, and the name of the remittance account is your father. And as far as we know, your father signed up with you a month ago. The name of seeing a doctor has disappeared, but we have checked all the hospitals in other provinces, and there are people with the same name and surname as your father, but it is not him!"
When she said this, waves began to appear on Jiang Ping's calm face.
He secretly clenched his fists and stared at Ning Yao: "So?"
She slapped the table and said harshly: "If you don't want the two children to be locked up in the interrogation room and interrogated by us, I advise you to tell the truth from now on."
Holding something in his hand, Hao Keai hurried towards the interrogation room.
Seeing that Ji Dongge was quietly standing outside the interrogation room watching, he couldn't help stepping forward.
"Boss, I'm back."
Ji Dongge nodded, glanced at the things in his hand: "Did you find it?"
Hao Keai said: "This kid has learned two tricks, he knows to hide important items in the water tank of the toilet, but he probably didn't expect that we policemen will not let go of even the cracks in the wall, how could it be possible for him to hide important items in the water tank? lied to."
Ji Dongge nodded, and walked into the interrogation room with the documents.
When he went in, Ning Yao and Jiang Ping were still deadlocked.
Jiang Ping was still holding on, no matter what Ning Yao said, he only replied: "If you want to say that I am related to the case, then show more direct evidence!"
When Ji Dongge came in, he heard him yelling these words, and sneered: "Here is the evidence." Then, Ji Dongge handed the things to Ning Yao, "This is what we found in his house."
When Jiang Ping heard this, his entire back became tense, and his eyes were fixed on the things in the bag.
Ning Yao opened the bag and took a look, pulling out a cold smile.
"Don't you want evidence? Here you are!" As she spoke, she slapped something in front of Jiang Ping's eyes.
That was nothing else, it was the license plate of Liu Mei's car that Wu Hao had buried!
"Didn't you admit that you had contacts with those two strangers and that you were involved in the case? Now explain why this license plate appeared in your house!"
Jiang Ping seemed to be drained of strength, and his tense state collapsed in an instant.He stared straight at the license plate and said after a while, "Did I do something wrong? I was right!"
Jiang Ping grew up under the shadow of his father's domestic violence. In the words of the Internet, he is a "filial son" who came out of the stick.
At that time, his parents had just divorced. He experienced a small beating every three days and a severe beating every five days. This kind of life lasted almost until he graduated from high school.Later, although his experience of being beaten was less, it was not completely absent. In his father's words - it is only natural for me to beat my son.
No one cares about how he survived those days, no one thinks whether he will have any psychological problems, in short, in the eyes of most relatives, the domestic violence that did not kill him is just a means of educating their children That's all.
However, at that time, the rebellious factor in his bones was already very strong.He wanted to fight back several times when he was beaten, but finally held back.
He couldn't do anything, and he couldn't bear to treat his father the way his father treated him.
Until he met Xu Nuo and Liu Yi, met a child who had the same experience as him, and even encountered a child worse than him, he began to waver.
At first, he just kept comforting the two children, because in their eyes, parents are still worth relying on.Despite their physical or mental abuse, their parents are still their parents, the people they most want to trust and rely on in this world.
He kept persuading Liu Mei and Ge Hong from the perspective of a bystander, and kept looking for reasons for Liu Mei and Ge Hong, until one day...
It was raining heavily that day, and he rushed to Liu Yi's house for class in his father's taxi.On the road, he met Liu Mei and Ge Hong who were waiting for the bus. He kindly asked them to get on the bus and go back together, and introduced them to his father.
Several middle-aged people chatted and chatted, and they talked about the topic of educating children.
His father took the lead, telling how he beat him and how he made him better.Ge Hong and Liu Mei seemed to have found a confidant, their eyes lit up when they said this.
He still remembers what Ge Hong said at the time: "Children have to be beaten, and the harder they are beaten, the more he can remember. If you don't beat, you can't become a talent!"
His father kept nodding: "Yes, yes, only dutiful sons are born under the stick. Only by being beaten can they not make mistakes."
"And occasionally we need to vent our anger when we encounter something. We have to pay for beating outsiders, but our children are fine. Children don't hold grudges, and they forget after beating." Liu Mei interrupted suddenly, "But In fact, it’s okay not to fight. Isn’t it said that domestic violence is not allowed? We can use cold violence against the cub. As long as my family makes a mistake, I will lock her in an old house that cannot be lived for several days. If there is any rebellious psychology, I dare not make mistakes."
The way they were discussing at the time looked like a demon in human skin.
What made Jiang Ping tremble the most was that they had no remorse, and even felt that domestic violence was right and that child abuse was their right.
At that moment, his whole body exploded.
Speaking of this, Jiang Ping paused for a moment, and suddenly smiled: "After that, I asked the two children insincerely, if their parents disappeared, would they feel uncomfortable? Guess what they said?"
Xu Nuo thought about it carefully, and replied: "It will be uncomfortable, because those are mom and dad."
Jiang Ping asked, "They keep beating and mistreating you, and you don't blame them?"
Xu Nuo's immature face was full of sadness: "I don't blame them, maybe it's because I didn't do well and I don't deserve their love."
At that moment, Jiang Ping was so uncomfortable that he was about to suffocate.Xu Nuo is just a child of seven or eight years old. Children of the same age who grew up in a healthy family will certainly not be as sensitive and inferior as him.
Later he asked Liu Yi the same question, and the answer he got was: "Disappearing...is it disappearing from my life forever?"
Jiang Ping nodded.
Liu Yi tentatively asked: "Then will they be in pain? I don't want to live with them anymore, but I don't want them to be in pain either."
When Jiang Ping said this, his face was full of sarcasm: "Did you hear that? This is the difference between children and adults! Children's thoughts are always clean and kind! Those high-sounding adults are simply incomparable! No matter how they are hurt, no matter how It’s uncomfortable, and I never thought of treating people who hurt them in the same way!”
The expression on Ning Yao's face became more and more serious: "So what? You just go and instigate the two children to commit crimes with you?"
"It's none of their business. The promise was made by me. He thought that my mother went abroad to study, and when she came back, she would know how to communicate in other ways and would not beat him again. In his consciousness, my mother just went out If you go far away, you will come back sooner or later. And Liu Yi..."
When Liu Yi went to look for him, it seemed that Liu Mei had locked him up for a few more days.Her whole mental state was on the verge of collapse. After finding Jiang Ping, she kept crying, and hiccupped while crying at the end, saying: "Teacher, you said last time that both parents disappeared... can it be done now? I I don’t want to be their daughter anymore, I’m so tired! If this continues, I might die!”
Later, after Jiang Ping coaxed her for a long time, he learned intermittently from her the reason for the punishment, and indirectly learned about the drug business of Liu Mei and Ge Hong, and Wu Hao's desire to get rid of Liu Mei. thing.
In order to find out the truth of the matter, he deliberately placed recording pens in the homes of the two families, and replaced them with new ones every day when he went to make up classes. After doing this for more than ten days, he finally recorded some useful things.
Wu Hao discussed with Xu Yiping and wanted to attack Liu Mei and Ge Hong.
Later, he thought about how to use Wu Hao without anyone noticing, so Wu Hao found a way to kill people from Liu Yi's extracurricular books.In order to prevent Wu Hao from taking the bait, he even asked Liu Yi to repeatedly tell Wu Hao how beautiful the book was and how wonderful the crime methods in it were.
Fortunately, at that time, Wu Hao was in a state of rushing to the doctor. He was too eager to get rid of Liu Mei, and suddenly found a way. He didn't think much about it, and followed the plan.
The crime methods in that book are almost ready-made, Wu Hao just needs to follow suit, the only thing he needs to think about is how to make an alibi.
It just so happened that Liu Mei had been working with drug dealers these days and had no time to take care of Liu Yi, so she entrusted her to Wu Hao.Presumably Wu Hao was also afraid that Liu Mei would find out something, so he didn't reject Liu Yi as a fool.
After Jiang Ping learned of these things, he asked Liu Yi to carefully observe Wu Hao's every move. Later, he learned that Wu Hao suddenly wanted to find a photographer to make a documentary about the crew, and that he asked Liu Mei to change the car on May [-]th. Then I understood what he wanted to do.
So Jiang Ping used the most stupid but also the easiest method to succeed - to adjust the time.
He asked Liu Yi to adjust the time of Wu Hao's mobile phone, a full day earlier, so what Wu Hao should do on May [-]th suddenly moved forward to May [-]rd, but Wu Hao was kept in the dark and knew nothing about it. .
On the day of the incident, he took advantage of Liu Mei and Ge Hong's trust in Liu Yi, and took them to a remote location in the film and television city.Then he took the sedative he bought online and stabbed them into the necks of the two, and then found a surveillance corner, got the two unconscious people into his car, and quietly led them down the mountain.Afterwards, he asked Liu Yi to monitor Wu Hao, and when he learned that Wu Hao had buried the license plate under a tree, he dug it out quietly, rented another car of the same model the next day, and replaced the license plate , hired two people to pretend to be Ge Hong and Liu Mei, and drove around at the same time to show off.
Jiang Ping's eyes were a little dim, as if giving up: "The general course of the matter is like this, and the rest...you should have deduced it all, right?"
Ning Yao gritted her teeth tightly, unable to explain what she was feeling in her heart. After a long while, she asked, "Are they still alive?"
The voice fell for a long time, but they didn't hear Jiang Ping's answer.
After a while, he suddenly answered the question: "Did you say I did something wrong?"
Ning Yao said, "You broke the law."
"So you think I'm wrong?" Jiang Ping sighed softly, "I just want to take my two children to save myself."
"The law represents restraint, and represents the morality of most people! So-called self-help without restraint and morality is a crime no matter how high-sounding the reason is!"
As if he didn't hear Ning Yao's words, his eyes drooped slightly out of focus, and his voice was much softer than before: "From childhood to adulthood, the most words I've heard after being beaten are..."
"Your dad and I were beaten up in the same way. Most people are like this, so you don't have to feel dissatisfied or wrong."
Jiang Ping paused, raised his eyes and looked at Ning Yao quietly: "So, is the thing that most people have experienced really correct? Can it be imitated all the time?"
Ning Yao felt very uncomfortable and didn't want to answer, so he continued to ask: "What you need to answer now is, are they still alive?"
Jiang Ping looked at his watch and said, "They should still be alive now, but not necessarily in a few 10 minutes."
Her expression froze, she looked at him solemnly, and said sharply, "What do you mean?"
"I strapped a bomb on them, which lasts for twelve hours. To scare them, I reset the time every day before the bomb is about to explode." Jiang Ping curled his lips, "The next explosion time is exactly twelve o'clock in the middle of the night. 43 minutes to now."
After hearing the location given by Jiang Ping, everyone was dispatched one after another.Not only that, they also contacted the EOD team as soon as possible, told them the specific situation, and told them to send people to the scene as soon as possible.On the way to the scene, Ma Xiaoliang was driving, and Ji Dongge and Ning Yao sat in the back seat.
Ma Xiaoliang kept talking about Jiang Ping's anti-social personality and being very dangerous, but no one paid any attention to him after mumbling for a long time.He quietly glanced at the rearview mirror, and when he found that Ning Yao was looking out the window motionlessly, while Ji Dongge was watching her quietly, he shut his mouth in good time.
The carriage returned to calm, but the two people in the back row didn't seem to notice this change.
Ning Yao looked out of the car window, his eyes were empty, as if he was looking at something, but he didn't seem to see anything at all.
In fact, her abnormality Ji Dongge understood that it was nothing more than hearing about someone with a bomb strapped to her body, which reminded her of what happened back then.
Several times he wanted to open his mouth to say something to her, but finally gave up.He said too many comforting words, but she didn't listen at all.
Looking at Ning Yao's profile hidden in the dark night, Ji Dongge wondered if there should be another way to let her come out.
The place where Jiangping Tibetans live is not far from the urban area. They drove there in more than 40 minutes. After parking for a few seconds, a strange car stopped in front of them smoothly.
Three EOD officers in EOD suits got out of the car, all of them wearing helmets, as if they were ready.
Ji Dongge looked at the three people and nodded, "Thank you for your hard work."
Several people didn't talk much, only the leader nodded, signaling him to rest assured, and then they walked quickly towards the house.
They passed by Ji Dongge, and when the last EOD officer passed him by, he felt strangely familiar for no reason.
He looked at the back of the last person, narrowing his narrow eyes slightly.
Ning Yao at the side raised his wrist to look at the time on his watch, it was still 3 minutes away from midnight.
She didn't know much about the EOD process, and wondered whether the EOD team could safely rescue the victim within 3 minutes.Her mind is very messy now, sometimes it is the scene in front of her, and sometimes flashes many things that happened back then, interspersed back and forth to stimulate her nerves.
She always felt that she had returned to the past for a moment, and she could only stand at the same place at a loss, feeling fear and panic with cold hands and feet.
The right hand was suddenly held by someone, and the dry warmth came down the palm. She looked up and found that Ji Dongge was standing beside her at some point.
He didn't speak, and he didn't even cast his eyes on her, he just stood beside her quietly, looking into the distance.
Ning Yao couldn't tell what it was like in his heart, but a thought inexplicably popped up in his mind - if he was by his side when that incident happened back then, would everything be different?
But she didn't have time to think about it, because the remaining person from the EOD team suddenly walked up to them.
"We don't know what's going on inside yet, but according to the time you provided, it's only about a minute before the bomb explodes. For safety's sake, retreat to a position 1 meters away."
Before Ji Dongge could speak, Ning Yao spoke first: "I won't leave."
Ji Dongge looked down at her, but said nothing.The person from the EOD team looked very embarrassed, hesitant to speak.
In the end, it was Ji Dongge who said: "Now we are about ten meters away from the house. Even if the bomb explodes accidentally, we will be affected by the air current at most, and our lives will not be in danger. Don't worry."
When the EOD team heard what he said, they didn't say anything more.
In the following time, almost everyone was looking at the watch with bated breath, especially Ning Yao, who raised his wrist and did not move, his eyes seemed to be nailed to the second hand of the watch.
When it was ten seconds before twelve o'clock, she looked up at the door of the house over there, where it was quiet and dull, and there was no movement at all.
The seconds on the watch kept going, nine, eight, seven, six, five, four...
When the pointer turned to the third from the bottom, her arm was suddenly pulled, and she turned around, her face was pressed into a firm and warm chest.
At that moment, the world seemed to be quiet. She couldn't hear the sound of the night wind blowing the leaves. The sound of the infinitely magnified second hand "tick-tick-tick" suddenly disappeared, leaving only the sound of the heart beating regularly in his chest. A moment, a moment, like the most effective sedative in the world, gradually calmed down her original fear and anxiety.
She gently closed her eyes, leaned against his arms, and held her breath waiting for the unknown result in the distance.
The second "click" pointed to the middle position, and everyone forgot to breathe at this moment, staring at the room in the distance.
However, everything that was expected did not happen, and the room was still silent, without any sound.
Everyone looked surprised, and Ning Yao also stood up straight, looking over in disbelief.
At this time, several EOD personnel walked out slowly with a victim each. Everyone was relieved when they saw that there was no bomb on the victim.
One of the EOD personnel approached them first, and said to them through the helmet: "Don't worry, the bombs on the victims are all fake."
As soon as these words came out, everyone's heart was completely let go.The EOD officer who stayed outside on standby laughed and scolded, "Are you all doing well? It took so long to dismantle the fake bomb?"
Another EOD officer took off his helmet and replied calmly: "The model is too realistic, and the time is urgent. We don't have the time to study whether the bomb is true or not. All we think about is which thread to cut."
The person who spoke was a tall young man with a youthful look in his eyes.Ji Dongge looked at him, and the scene outside the police academy that day jumped out of his mind almost instantly.
He was sure that the person in front of him was the same as the person that day.
And the strange sense of familiarity that he inexplicably appeared that day struck again now.
Ji Dongge looked at him quietly without making a sound.
Ning Yao, who was next to her, knew nothing about all this. Now she was full of the good news that the victim was safe and sound, and the so-called time bomb did not explode.
Her hanging heart let go, and the gloom in her chest seemed to dissipate in an instant.
She walked up to the young EOD officer first, stretched out her hand and said, "Thank you."
The EOD officer was stunned, and after a brief hesitation, he slowly raised his head to look at her.
His eyes were as deep as the sea, and the moment he looked at her, it seemed that countless lights burst out from the sea.In less than a second, he smiled as usual.
He smiled widely, his smiling eyes were full of light, and he put his gloved hand on her palm: "Serving the people and helping the seniors relieve their worries is what we should do, and it's not hard work at all."
Ning Yao smiled, didn't seem to care too much about what he said, and then thanked the other two EOD personnel.
And Ji Dongge took in all this with deep eyes.
(End of this chapter)
When the people in the police station saw the two coming to work together in the morning, they knew what was going on.With yesterday's buffer, they were not too surprised and exchanged pleasantries. After chatting casually for a few words, they dragged the two into the topic.
Ma Xiaoliang handed over a stack of documents to Singer Ji Dong, and said, "Mr. Ji, these are the detailed documents of the two victims. We checked them carefully overnight, and they are mostly here."
Ji Dongge didn't speak, subconsciously separated the two victims' documents, and handed one of them to Ning Yao.
She took it, without unnecessary reaction or expression, natural and tacit understanding.
In the silence, everyone glanced at each other with different expressions, but they didn't say much.
Judging from the data, the relationship between the two victims is extraordinary.The two are colleagues, and both are the founders of a local small animal shelter. On weekdays, the main social circle revolves around the shelter. The people they contact are either doctors from animal hospitals, or some caring volunteers or go to People who adopt animals.
Seeing that they hadn't spoken, Ma Xiaoliang said again: "It is written in the information that the two of them are extremely kind to others on weekdays, and their personalities are also very gentle. They don't easily quarrel with others or form enemies...so I think the possibility of vendetta killing and kidnapping is not very high. .”
Ji Dongge gave him a cool look: "Before the case is investigated clearly, don't make any inferential remarks."
Ma Xiaoliang scratched his nose embarrassingly, and said, "I'm just talking about my own thoughts, I want to discuss with everyone."
Ji Dongge ignored him, threw the documents on the table, and said to Ning Yao, "You follow me."
Afterwards, he said to Hao Keai: "You follow along."
Ning Yao and Hao Keyai followed Ji Dongge into the car and went to the home of one of the victims.
Hao Keai consciously went to sit in the back row, while Ning Yao sat in the passenger seat.
On the way, she glanced at his side face, and found that his jaw was a little tense, obviously still concerned about what Ma Xiaoliang said wrongly just now.
She suddenly remembered that the two of them had quarreled because of their disagreement, and he couldn't say no to her, so he gritted his teeth angrily, but couldn't bear to quarrel with her, so he slammed the door and left silently.
They had been dating for a long time at that time, and she knew his whereabouts on weekdays like the back of the palm of her hand, so she was not in a hurry, and slowly cooked two dishes, then ate them slowly, wiped her mouth and cleaned up the dishes, I went out to look for him when it was dark.
Usually he likes to vent when he is angry. He had a buddy who opened a boxing gym before, and he went there to box when he had nothing to do.So she thought about it carefully, then locked the place where he ran away from home, and took a taxi there.
After arriving at the boxing gym, she saw the man sweating profusely in the middle of the boxing gym.
She was not in a hurry at that time, and sat down in a corner with the best view, watching him vent his grievances with great interest.
I have to say that Ji Dongge's appearance is really good, with wide shoulders, narrow waist and long legs, his naked upper body seems to have been sculpted, there is no lack of lines that should be there, and the muscles like tofu are neatly formed Covering the abdomen, the arms are not as thick as a professional, but they are clearly muscular.
Ning Yao already liked his boyfriend's face and body, so looking at him at that time, he felt relish.
After looking at it for a while, she looked down inadvertently, and saw a few photos at his feet.She stretched her neck to take a closer look, and found that it turned out to be her photo!
Ning Yao didn't know why, so it happened that the owner of the boxing gym came over at that time, so she waved to him.
The two had met a few times, and they were still familiar with each other, so they didn't exchange polite greetings.She asked: "What is that at Boss Ji's feet? How do I look like my picture?"
The owner of the boxing gym smiled mischievously, and said, "What is a likeness? That's your photo!"
Now Ning Yao was even more bewildered. He glanced at Ji Dongge and asked, "He's just punching, why put my photo next to his feet? Could it be that he's just too angry to step on his feet?"
"Tsk, how is it possible?" The owner of the boxing gym looked disgusted, "How could a guy like him be willing to step on you? Don't tease me."
"Then why does he have nothing to prepare for my photo?"
"How do I know? Every time he gets angry with you, he looks like a madman!" The owner of the boxing gym was speechless, "That photo was the first time he came here and asked me to print it. It seemed that he had an argument with you. I took the photo here and pasted it on the sandbag. Looking at that posture, I thought he wanted to take your photo to vent his anger. Who knew that he looked at the photo for a long time, but silently tore it off, and finally just hit the sand a few times casually. The bag left."
Ning Yao was a little stunned: "And then?"
"Then? Then every time he gets angry with you, he behaves like this, pasting and tearing up photos over and over again. Tsk, I asked him what the hell he was doing once before, and he said he was going to be angry with you I have an antisocial personality, so I want to vent my anger on your photo. I asked him why he didn't hit him, he was smoking a cigarette..."
When the owner of the boxing gym said this, he put on a deep smoking posture, and when he spoke again, his tone was somewhat similar to Ji Dongge's.
"Why else? I can't bear it."
Ning Yao couldn't tell what was going on in his heart at that time, some felt it was funny, but at the same time felt like pouring a glass of soda water in his heart, it was sweet and swollen.
After a while, she took the boxing gloves on the side, put them on, and walked all the way to Ji Dongge's side.
In fact, he had seen Ning Yao a long time ago, but because he was still angry, he didn't take the initiative to talk to her, and still beat the sandbag with his head depressed.Ning Yao, on the other hand, changed his previous appearance at home, raised his eyebrows, and tapped a few photos at his feet with his feet, smiling sweetly.
"What's the point of venting your anger with the photo? Just hit someone." She touched her fisted hands together, as if to challenge, "Come on, hit me directly."
After listening to it, Ji Dongge put on a face and replied with a cold face, "Go away."
When Ning Yao heard it, she became more straightforward. She stepped forward and put her arms around his strong waist, raised her small head and smiled provocatively: "I won't leave."
He was very helpless, and pretended for a long time, and finally saw that she really didn't let go, so he gave up struggling.
He held her face in his hands, lowered his head, and bit her cheek hard.
"Will you still be mad at me next time?"
The memories came to an abrupt end here, she forgot how she responded, and only vaguely remembered that her heart was very sweet at that time.
As if aware of her gaze, Ji Dongge looked back at her and asked, "What are you looking at?"
She looked away and said nothing.
Looking at her expression, he thought she was thinking about it again. After pondering for a moment, he stepped on the gas pedal with less force.
"Otherwise... Let's go back and apply for the investigation of the serial murder case? This case of disappearance will be transferred to other colleagues for investigation."
When Hao Keai heard this, he was a little surprised, and looked at him nervously.
Ning Yao also looked at him, did not speak, only expressed doubts with his eyes.
"I originally thought that after the disappearance case was over, I would start investigating the serial murder case that year. After all, I was also involved in this case."
The reason why the investigation time will be extended is entirely because the disappearance case and the abduction case are mistakenly intertwined.Although he didn't take over the case directly, he was involved in it anyway.He wants to have a beginning and an end in everything he does.
That's why, this time, he didn't even think about it, and directly took over the investigation of the disappearance case.
But...he couldn't see Ning Yao's lifeless look even more, he very much wanted to see Ning Yao who was always confident, steady and full of vitality.
"But thinking about it carefully, we seem to have no extra time to waste. Why don't I hand over the disappearance case, and then we can concentrate on investigating the case back then."
Ning Yao shook his head and refused without thinking.
"No need. I'm really anxious, and I'm worried that the murderer's threat will come true, but I can clearly distinguish between the public and the private." She looked at him with a faint light in her eyes, "As you said, when the time comes So far, no bodies of the victims have been found, which proves that they may still be alive. If this is the case, they will have a chance to survive if the case is solved one day earlier. Since you have taken over the case, don’t hand it over to others.”
Hearing Ning Yao's words, Hao Keai's hanging heart was relieved, he was afraid that she would have the same idea as Ji Dongge.Although the serial murder case cannot be delayed, the disappearance case is actually more urgent.
Although compared with before, the police force has recruited a lot of new members with extraordinary abilities, but compared with Ji Dongge, a criminal investigation consultant, those people are still a bit inferior.The disappearance case is related to two lives. As Ning Yao said, if the case is solved one day earlier, the victim will have a chance to survive.
After Ning Yao finished speaking, Ji Dongge pursed his lips silently, and then smiled.
He thought she had changed a lot, but now it seemed that she was still the same when dealing with cases and victims.
Thinking of this, he didn't say anything more.After the car followed the navigation for a while, he parked the car steadily on the side of the road.
"Come on, let's get out of the car."
They came to the home of one of the victims, which is located in the city center and is a mid-to-high-end residential area. There are security guards to register when entering and leaving, and the safety factor is relatively high.
According to the information, the victim’s name is Ge Hong. She is married and has one son. Her husband’s name is Xu Yiping, and her son’s name is Xu Nuo. Her family conditions are good, but because she does charity work, the main source of income for her family is her husband Ping Rili. Run a small pet hospital.
After finding the house number, Ji Dongge only pressed the doorbell, and the door opened from the inside.
Appearing in the eyes of several people was a very gentle-looking man, about 30 years old, wearing a light blue shirt, with a very gentle face.Look at the man's appearance, he is Ge Hong's husband Xu Yiping on the profile.
"Who are you looking for?"
Hao Keai directly showed his ID: "Police."
After Xu Yiping saw his ID, a look of unnaturalness flashed in his eyes, and then he looked at them with some vigilance: "What's the matter with you?"
"Don't be nervous." Ji Dongge said, "We are here to re-interrogate you on the case of your wife's disappearance."
Xu Yiping thought for a while, and finally stepped aside and said, "Come in."
The interior decoration is very bright, the windows are bright and clean.The living room, dining room, and everything that can be seen at a glance are very neat and orderly, and it is not at all obvious that this is the long-lost family of the hostess.
In front of the coffee table in the center of the living room, a kid who looked like he was in the first or second grade was doing his homework.Now it is midsummer outside, but he is wearing a long school uniform, covering him tightly.
After hearing the sound of Ji Dongge and the others entering the room, the child raised his head and looked this way, with a trace of timidity in his eyes, he didn't look like a bold child.
Xu Yiping took three cups and put them in front of them respectively, then lifted the teapot on the coffee table, and slowly poured tea for them: "If you have any questions, please ask as much as possible. I have been very anxious since my wife disappeared, and I hoped to get it sooner than anyone else. Find her, and hope she returns home soon. Therefore, I will try my best to remember and tell you any relevant details.”
His cooperative attitude saved the opposite person from some unnecessary troubles.Hao Keai took out the prepared notebook and pen to record, and said firstly: "I'm sorry, our investigation was a bit biased, because there were too many cases of abduction and trafficking in the city not long ago, and the timing of your wife's disappearance is similar to that of abduction and trafficking. The cases are very similar, so the colleagues in the team put the case under the trafficking case after a brief questioning, which delayed the best time to solve the case. But don't worry, we have reorganized the direction now, wait..."
Before he finished speaking, Xu Yiping interrupted him: "What do you mean? You mean my wife was not trafficked?"
"Yes." After Hao Keai finished speaking, he stared at Xu Yiping closely.
Xu Yiping's face sank at a speed visible to the naked eye.
"I don't know what they mean by coming here. They suspect that my wife's disappearance is man-made, and... did I kill her?"
Before the few people had time to say anything, a child on the side suddenly ran over and stood in front of Xu Yiping, looking anxious, and said, "Uncle, aunt, you must have made a mistake, mother is not dead! She is not dead yet!" Die! She will come back! Dad will not harm her, you must have made a mistake! Don't take him away!"
Ning Yao and Ji Dongge saw the reaction of the father and son, and looked at each other calmly.
Ji Dongge said: "We haven't determined the direction of the investigation yet, so you don't need to get excited. This time we are here to make another detailed record, so that we can solve the case faster."
The child raised his head, apparently in disbelief: "Really? You didn't lie to me?"
Ning Yao touched the top of his hair: "Really, uncle and aunt won't lie."
Xu Yiping dragged Xu Nuo behind him, a little impatient between his brows, but his tone was still gentle: "Go and do your homework, I don't need you here, uncles and aunts won't do anything to Dad."
Ji Dongge spoke in a timely manner: "Sorry, in order to ensure the comprehensiveness of the clues, the child, as the immediate family member of the victim, also needs to make a record."
Ji Dongge originally thought that Xu Yiping would strongly object when he mentioned this, but unexpectedly, Xu Yiping didn't say anything, he just hesitated for a moment before nodding in agreement.
Ning Yao took the child to his bedroom, Hao Keai took a look at Ji Dongge, and after getting his approval, he followed Ning Yao into the child's bedroom.
In order to prevent the children from being disturbed, they closed the door after entering to isolate the voices of the two people in the living room.
Ning Yao didn't ask directly, but looked around, planning to find some topics to narrow the distance between her and the child first, so that he could ask more real things after he was unprepared.
There were a lot of awards in the bookcase in the corner. After reading them one by one, she praised them, "Promise, kid? I didn't expect you to be so good. You must be a very smart kid with so many awards."
Promised not to have the reaction of ordinary children after being praised, he silently lowered his head and muttered: "I'm not smart, a smart child won't only get No.2 or No.3 like me, auntie don't need to comfort me, I know Yes, only the child who took No.1 deserves to be praised, and I don’t deserve it.”
Ning Yao and Hao Keyai were stunned for a moment, looking at the child's fluffy hair, Hao Keyai changed the subject calmly: "Then let's start taking notes now? Don't be nervous, just answer the question of uncle and auntie. Just ask a question, and if you don’t know, you can just say it.”
Xu Nuo nodded solemnly.
Hao Keai turned on the phone first, clicked on the recording interface, and wrote a few words in the notebook with a pen.
Ning Yao looked at his tightly wrapped appearance, and couldn't bear to say: "Why don't you take off your coat first? It's so hot now, Auntie is afraid that you will get heat stroke."
Xu Nuo shook his head, his expression was a little nervous compared to just now: "No need, auntie, I'm not hot." As he spoke, he subconsciously shrank his little hands into his sleeves.
Ning Yao had a panoramic view of his movements, and didn't make things difficult for him, and began to question and take notes with Hao Keai.
"When was the last time you saw your mother?" Ning Yao asked.
"It should be more than a month ago." Xu Nuo replied.
"Do you remember the exact time?"
"The fourth of last month."
It is now June NO.17, and the [-]th of last month is May [-]th. If the date promised is accurate, it means that the victim has been missing for one month and fourteen days.
Hao Keai took notes in his notebook and asked, "Is May [-]th a special day?"
Xu Nuo can recall it so quickly, which means that he must have a deep impression on that day, and that day was a special day.
Xu Nuo lowered his head, his eyes dodging a little.
"It's nothing special, it's just that the teacher informed me that there would be a miscellaneous fee, so I was a little more impressed." When he was speaking, his little hands were unconsciously twisted together. Ning Yao looked at it calmly, and asked after a while: "Then What? When you saw your mother that day, what did she do?"
Xu Nuo lowered his head even lower, and Ning Yao couldn't even see a trace of the expression on his face.
"I was at school during the day, so I don't know what happened to my mother. But at home at night, instead of coming home and changing into her pajamas and putting on a mask, she was sitting at the kitchen table and talking on the phone. What I didn't hear the content very clearly, but my mother looked very anxious, as if something serious had happened. Then she walked towards the door and told the people there to wait for her. She would be there soon, and then left. "
"And she didn't come back?"
"Yes, she never came back."
"Then can you guess who Mom was calling that day?"
Xu Nuo rolled his eyes: "I think it should be Aunt Liu Mei, she usually has the most contact with Aunt Liu."
Liu Mei, the other of the two missing victims, is also Ge Hong's most contacted colleague on weekdays.
After Ning Yao and Hao Keyai finished listening, they didn't speak for a long time, and the bedroom was very quiet, as if there was a hint of oppression.Xu Nuo raised his head bravely, and looked at Ning Yao timidly: "Uncle, Auntie, did I say something wrong?"
Ning Yao quickly smiled and shook his head: "No, you behaved very well."
Outside, the conversation between Ji Dongge and Xu Yiping has been going on.
Compared with Ning Yao's side, the way of conversation here is much simpler and more direct.
"Did Ge Hong act abnormally before he disappeared?"
Xu Yiping didn't even think about it, and said, "No."
"Then did she show uneasiness and apprehension before she disappeared?"
"nor."
Ji Dongge looked at him quietly, with a sense of oppression in his cold eyes: "Not reporting what you know is equivalent to covering up in disguise. Seriously, you will bear relevant legal responsibilities. Are you sure you want to continue to be so uncooperative?"
Xu Yiping's expression froze, and he smiled slightly: "Officer, everything I said is true, do you want to suspect that I have something tricky just because I haven't provided you with any good clues for the police?"
Ji Dongge didn't want to waste time entangled with him, so he didn't care about his strong words, and continued to ask: "Has Ge Hong usually offended anyone?"
For some reason, after Xu Yiping heard his words, the corners of Xu Yiping's lips twitched mockingly, and said, "It's fine if others don't offend her, but she can still offend others..."
Ji Dongge frowned slightly, and looked at Ge Hong's husband with deeper and sharper eyes.
If he remembered correctly, the previous survey data showed that Ge Hong was usually gentle and kind, but why did her husband give the completely opposite evaluation?
Ji Dongge didn't ask the other party directly, but calmly kept this doubt in his heart, and then changed the subject: "Besides you, who is Ge Hong's most contacted person on weekdays?"
"Her good friend, Liu Mei."
"Do they usually get along well? Have there been any major conflicts or disputes?"
"No, they look as good as a pair of trousers. I've never seen them fight."
Ji Dongge thought for a while, and then said: "The time we recorded your report was May [-]th. Did you discover Ge Hong's disappearance on that day? Or earlier?"
Xu Yiping did not answer directly as before, but lowered his eyes slightly, and was silent for a while.
"I was in a bad mood those few days. I encountered some troublesome things in the hospital. The child was not very worrying, so I ignored her. Later, when I finished my work and calmed down to contact her, I realized that she had disappeared. Contacted." At this point, Xu Yiping looked at Ji Dongge again, with the same expression, but a little evasion in his eyes, "Even if I found her missing a few days later, it still can't prove that the case has something to do with me, right? "
"The person next to the pillow doesn't come home for a few days, even if there is any reason, it shouldn't be so late to find out, right?"
"The key is that she used to stay out at night a lot. Over time, I got used to it, so..."
Ji Dongge put one hand on his knee lightly, tapped his index finger regularly, stared at him opposite him motionlessly, and didn't speak for a while.
At this moment, the door of the bedroom opened suddenly, and Ning Yao and Hao Keyai came out one after the other, looking as if they had finished their question.
Ji Dongge stood up and looked at her, and said, "Did you finish the transcript?"
"Well, we have already asked what we should ask."
"Then let's go."
Xu Yiping obviously didn't expect that they would end suddenly, he stood still for a moment without reacting, but Xu Yiping followed like a little tail.
Ning Yao thought he was worried about his mother, so when he reached the door, he turned around to comfort him, but he accidentally knocked down a baseball bat standing in the corner.
The sound of the stick falling to the ground was not loud, but it shocked the promise behind.Like a conditioned reflex, he took a big step back in horror, and even lost his footing, almost falling to the ground.
Xu Yiping barely supported him, with an impatient look on his face: "Didn't I tell you? Don't always be frizzy."
Xu Nuo lowered his head, unable to see his expression clearly, but his thin body was trembling slightly, and his breathing rate was much higher than before.
Ning Yao had a panoramic view of this scene, a strange feeling flashed in his heart, then he glanced in Ji Dongge's direction and found that he was still staring at Xu Nuo.
Xu Yiping didn't care about their reaction, patted Xu Nuo on the head, and said: "You go in to study your homework, and the tutor will come later, and then you won't know anything."
Xu Nuo still hung his head, and nodded slightly when he heard the sound.
While talking, there was a knock on the door. Xu Yiping looked at the clock on the wall and said, "It should be the child's tutor."
Ning Yao opened the door smoothly. Sure enough, there was a young man standing outside, with a light gray T-shirt on his upper body and black trousers on his lower body. He looked tall and sunny.
The young man seemed to be a little curious about Ji Dongge and the others, but he also knew how to measure them. After looking at them briefly, he nodded at Xu Yiping and walked into the room.
At this time, Ji Dongge seemed to think of something, paused, and said to Xu Yiping: "Please don't leave the country in the near future, let alone lose contact. Before the truth of the case is found out, we may still need your cooperation in the investigation."
Xu Yiping frowned even more when he heard it, but finally nodded and said, "I didn't break the law, I'm not afraid of anything, and I won't run away."
After going out, several people tacitly looked back at the door of Ge Hong's house, each thinking about something.After a while, several people went downstairs one after the other.
Ning Yao didn't speak until he got in the car: "Xu Yiping has a big problem."
Ji Dongge nodded in agreement: "Indeed. But you have been in the bedroom all the time, how could you find out that there is something wrong with him?"
Ning Yao turned his head and winked at Hao Keai who was in the back row, and he immediately understood, took out the phone from his pocket and handed it to her.
While clicking on the recording just now, Ning Yao said, "Compared to other peers, that child has a lot of low self-esteem, and..." As she spoke, she dragged the playback progress bar of the recording back for a while, and the voice of promise came from the phone It came out.
"I was at school during the day, so I don't know what happened to my mother, but at home at night, instead of changing into her pajamas and applying a mask when she came home as usual, she was sitting at the kitchen table and talking on the phone. What content I didn't hear it very clearly, but my mother's face looked anxious..."
Hearing this, Ji Dongge raised his eyes and met Ning Yao's gaze.
"The living room of Ge Hong's house is not far from the kitchen, but she didn't choose to go to the bedroom and close the door, but chose to make a phone call in a relatively public place like the kitchen, which shows that the phone call has no hidden value, so she The voice should not be lowered on purpose, at least not so low that you can't hear it in the living room."
Ning Yao paused for a moment, and then said: "But Xu Nuo said that he didn't hear clearly. What he said earlier was very strange, something like 'didn't change into pajamas and apply mask as usual', as if he was deliberately emphasizing to me his mother's abnormality that day. He spoke coherently, not like the reaction that ordinary people would have when they think, let alone such a small child..."
"Do you think he said that on purpose for you?"
"Yes, and it seems to have been prepared a long time ago." Ning Yao said, as if thinking of something, "Besides, you also saw it? His reaction just now."
Ji Dongge nodded: "Well, a typical PD patient."
PD, Panic Disorder, that is, panic disorder. Generally, children with this disease have experienced severe traumatic events. If they experience that event again, or even just related to it, or see, hear, and feel When touching a certain person or object, it will show extreme panic and shortness of breath.
And these symptoms were all displayed on Xu Nuo after the baseball bat fell to the ground.
"I suspect that he has been in a state of domestic violence for a long time." Ning Yao said, "I asked him to take off his clothes when he first entered the house. It is unusual for him to cover such a thick school uniform in this weather, but he After hearing my words, he strongly objected, obviously trying to cover up something. If so, then his so-called confession was probably taught him to recite in advance, and it was probably carried out under threat."
"Do you think the person who promised the domestic violence is his father Xu Yiping?"
"Nine times out of ten it is him. If this is the case, he must have coerced and promised to recite those words, so he is very suspected of committing the crime!"
Singer Ji Dong was holding the steering wheel, tapping on it with his fair and slender index finger, staring far ahead, without speaking for a long while.
Ning Yao saw his worries and asked, "Did you discover something I didn't know?"
He nodded: "When I talked with him, he didn't show any guilty expression. The only time he showed any strangeness was when I asked him if he could confirm the date of Ge Hong's disappearance."
"Date of disappearance? I remember Xu Xu remembering this very clearly."
"Yes, but Xu Yiping is just the opposite. His answer to this is very hesitant, and he keeps finding excuses for himself, saying that he didn't ignore Ge Hong's disappearance on purpose."
Ning Yao's dark eyes narrowed subconsciously: "If that's the case, then he and Xu Nuo are completely different in terms of when Ge Hong disappeared."
If Xu Yiping used violence to coerce him to promise to recite that confession, then the two shouldn't have such a big difference in the most crucial point, right?
Hao Keai interjected at the right time: "Otherwise, let's find someone to keep an eye on him to see if he has any changes. At present, we don't have enough clues to conclude that he is related to the disappearance case."
Ning Yao nodded, and after a while, a hesitant look appeared on his face: "But what about Xiao Xunuo? If he is really domestically abused, wouldn't it be dangerous to let him be with Xu Yiping again?"
"That can't be helped. In this situation, we can only wait. Any extra actions may scare the snake. Besides, Xu Yiping is Xu Xu's only guardian at present. We have no choice and no right to do anything to him." Ji Dongge Say.
She understands the truth, but it still hurts to think about it.
"That child showed extreme low self-esteem. That state should not only have been physically abused, but I suspect that his spirit has also been abused." Speaking of this, she sighed softly, "Although there are not many such phenomena. , but it does exist in some families.”
"Yes, so let's not pay attention to these for now, and focus on the case." Ji Dongge said, took out his mobile phone and called Ma Xiaoliang.
"Mr. Ji."
"Now you find two people to watch Ge Hong's husband. If he has any troubles, you should tell me in time. As long as he goes out, record all his actions."
"Sure, I understand!" Ma Xiaoliang paused for a moment, then said over there, "Talking about Teacher Ji, just now I checked the situation of another victim with other colleagues, and found that her husband was not in the city. , even the last report was the police station where the child’s teacher led the child, and her husband did not show up.”
"He's been on a business trip?"
"That's right. He is a film director. He usually runs with the crew, and he is currently filming in the Kunshan Film and Television City in the suburbs."
Ji Dongge raised his hand and glanced at the watch on his wrist, estimating the time: "From Kunshan Film and Television City to the city, six hours is enough for one round trip, right?"
"Enough is enough, absolutely enough."
"Okay, then you are responsible for keeping an eye on Ge Hong's husband, and Liu Mei's family is waiting for our news."
"Don't worry!" After a pause, Ma Xiaoliang asked hesitantly, "Then shall we call Liu Mei's husband? But he didn't come last time, so we only have his daughter's contact information here."
"Not for the time being, let's go and find out the situation."
"Ok."
After hanging up the phone, Ji Dongge looked at Ning Yao as if he had thought of something.
"You know that our police academy is quite close to Kunshan Film and Television City, right?"
Ning Yao didn't understand what he wanted to do, so he just nodded slightly.
"Do you remember? When you were a sophomore in college, I asked me to find a way to buy you hot and sour noodles from a store almost every night. At that time, our school was closed from Monday to Friday, and every time I secretly called I gave it to the shopkeeper, and asked him to make hot and sour noodles and secretly deliver them to the back door, and I continued inside. A few months ago, when I went back to school, he recognized me at a glance and asked me about your recent situation. "Ji Dongge hooked the corners of his lips, his jaw was not as tight as before, and his expression was gentle, "I will pass by there in a while, and I will take you to eat a bowl of hot and sour noodles, and see if the boss can also recognize you. "
When he mentioned it, it really brought back Ning Yao's memories. For a while, she really wanted to taste the taste that she couldn't eat enough back then.
So she didn't refuse, and instead agreed with acquiescence, and even faintly began to look forward to it.
The atmosphere between the two of them was obviously different from the previous one. Hao Keai watched from behind, feeling like a light bulb for a moment, so embarrassed that he closed his eyes and pretended to be asleep.
They drove for about two and a half hours to the police academy where they used to study, and the small shop was easy to find, just opposite the back door of the police academy.
When getting off the car, Hao Keai directly refused the invitation, saying that he was tired and sleepy, and wanted to sleep a little longer, and asked them to eat hot and sour noodles, and just bring him a bowl later.
He pretended to be sleeping so clearly before, how could Ning Yao not see it, so now hearing his words, his expression was a little unnatural.
Ji Dongge was very calm, as if he was very satisfied with his refusal to be a light bulb, and even smiled at him.
"Okay, then we'll bring you noodles after we're done eating." As he spoke, he took Ning Yao's hand and walked towards the store.
It was a very small shop, and the owner didn't add east and west to the menu like other businessmen.From the beginning to the end, the owner only sells hot and sour noodles. In his words, it is to make simple things to the extreme.
But the owner is not bragging, Ning Yao's previous taste was really tricky, and he couldn't eat anything that didn't suit his taste.So during the years of studying, the only one she insisted on giving good reviews was this hot and sour noodle shop.
Today is Wednesday, and the police academy is still completely closed. There are only some individual customers eating in the store. When they enter, the owner of the store immediately stands up to greet them.
When seeing Ji Dongge, the shop owner was a little surprised, looked behind him again, and said with a smile: "Congratulations, you finally coaxed your girlfriend well."
The reason why the shopkeeper said this is because when Ji Dongge came over a few months ago, he looked lifeless. He was not as energetic as he is now, and he couldn't see the light in his eyes.At that time, he asked Ji Dongge what happened. Ji Dongge was so drunk with him, and when he was about to collapse, he murmured softly: "She doesn't want me anymore, she really doesn't want me anymore... "
The shop owner recognized Ji Dongge and remembered how much he doted on his girlfriend when he was in the police academy, so he concluded that he broke up with her girlfriend.
This time Ji Dongge brought someone over, she was still the girl she was familiar with back then, and compared to before, her emotions were one heaven and the other underground.Although Ji Dongge still doesn't like to laugh very much, but the whole person looks like the flowers that are about to dry up have been turned over and fertilized again, watered carefully, and they are full of vitality again.
So the shopkeeper concluded that the little girl must have returned to him, which made him look like before.
Ji Dongge just nodded at the other party and didn't answer the question.
He led Ning Yao to sit in the corner inside, and then began to order food.
"Two bowls of hot and sour noodles, one bowl with less onion and more mustard, and one bowl without coriander."
The shopkeeper wrote the list and glanced at Ning Yao with a smile: "Is one bowl enough? I remember you used to eat two bowls for each meal."
In the past, Ning Yao had a really big appetite. At that time, she had to practice physical fitness every day, and the amount of exercise was too much. The food in the cafeteria was hard to swallow, so her daily hope was the hot and sour rice noodles at night, and she even had to eat two bowls each time.
Ning Yao didn't feel much at first, but after so many years, the old matter was brought up, and she was really embarrassed.
She didn't look at the shopkeeper, and muttered in a low voice: "I don't eat two bowls at once..."
"That's right." The shopkeeper quickly changed his words when he heard it, "You ordered four bowls of hot and sour noodles once, I still remember it!"
Ning Yao didn't know what to reply at all.
Ji Dongge raised the corners of his lips happily, and said to the shopkeeper, "You can help me make two bowls of hot and sour noodles first. If it's not enough, we can order more."
Ning Yao recalled it carefully, but he never remembered when he had eaten four bowls of hot and sour noodles.When the shopkeeper walked away, she asked Ji Dongge, "Did I ask you to buy four bowls of hot and sour noodles?"
He broke apart a pair of disposable chopsticks and rubbed the two chopsticks back and forth to remove the sawdust on them.Hearing her words, he looked up.
"Did you forget? Once in a shooting class, you missed five bullets. I saw it and went to teach you. In the end, both of us were scolded by the teacher for not being serious in class. We only knew how to fall in love, and we were fined to run [-] laps of the playground. "
When Ji Dongge mentioned it, Ning Yao remembered what was going on.
In fact, she felt that she was wronged that time. The teacher usually scolded her for not being serious, but she really didn't think about anything else that time.Her shooting has always been weak, but Ji Dongge is a well-known sharpshooter in the school. She just asked him to teach her quietly, but who would have thought that he would blatantly embrace her from behind in front of the whole class, and One hand was on her waist, and the other was on top of hers.
To this day, she still remembers the feeling at that time.At that time, the two had not been in love for a long time. Although the high profile was known to the whole school, there were not many intimate contacts in private.
So when he stuck up from behind, her whole heart was raised.
I don't know whether he was unintentional or intentional, when he leaned into her ear to speak, and when he uttered words, the warm and electric breath drifted past her ears.
"Don't be nervous, it's okay to miss the target, you are a man of all abilities, at worst, I will give you extra lessons at night."
As soon as these words came out, her original positive learning heart collapsed in an instant, and her mind became messy.When the teacher turned around and called her name, she lost control of her strength, "bang bang" a few times...and missed a few times.
Later, the teacher punished them for running around on the grounds that they only knew how to talk about love in class.After twenty laps, half of her life was almost gone.Later, when she was lying dead in the dormitory, her roommate brought back four bowls of hot and sour noodles, saying that Ji Dongge brought them to her.
At that time, she texted him angrily, asking him if he treated himself like a pig, otherwise how could he buy four bowls of hot and sour noodles for his girlfriend at a time!He didn't reply to her immediately, but pinpointed the time when she finished eating the noodles, and sent a sentence: Have you finished eating?
She looked at the four empty takeaway boxes in the trash can, gritted her teeth and replied: No!
After a few seconds, Ji Dongge replied: Oh, you reacted so strongly, it seems that you have eaten up all four bowls of noodles.
Ning Yao: ...
Ji Dongge: Are you full?If you are not full, I will order two more bowls of noodles for you.
Ning Yao gritted his teeth angrily, thinking about how to reply to him, but he suddenly sent another sentence.
Ji Dongge: We, Miss Pig, can eat with confidence. Your man is just trying to sell everything. If you don’t eat it yourself, you won’t be hungry.
At that moment, Ning Yao felt that even his breathing was sweet.
Thinking of this, her eyebrows were rarely stained with a smile, Ji Dongge saw it, and raised the corners of her mouth in a good mood.
He understands what she has experienced in the past year, and also knows that her originally hot and positive heart may start to turn cold, but he doesn't mind slowly warming it up again.As long as she doesn't leave and stays by his side all the time, he doesn't believe that she can't change back to his Ning Yao.
The two of them each had a bowl of hot and sour noodles, which made their bodies feel hot and their lips numb, and Ning Yao was even more enjoyable. If it wasn't for the loss of appetite now, maybe she would have another bowl.
When they checked out and left, they met a thin, tall and straight boy who looked very young in a white sleeveless T-shirt, black casual trousers, and a black peaked cap on his head.
But the most conspicuous thing is the opponent's face.If Ji Dongge usually gives the impression of being cold and deep, this person is the complete opposite.Taking a closer look, although he didn't smile, there was a vigor between his brows and eyes, giving people a very positive feeling.
However, Ning Yao has never had any extra interest in strangers, he just took a quick glance and then looked away.On the contrary, Ji Dongge looked back at the other party a few times when he left the store with inquiry in his eyes.
"What's wrong?" Ning Yao asked.
He shook his head: "It's nothing, I just think he looks familiar."
The topic did not continue, and they walked away in silence all the way.
At this moment, the boy who just passed by them suddenly turned back and stood at the door quietly watching their leaving backs.
There was a smile in his eyes, very shallow, as if overflowing unintentionally.
"You're finally back, Ning Yao."
Kunshan Film and Television City is built on the top of a mountain, and the surrounding mountain roads are rugged and difficult to walk. Most people have to be careful when driving up the mountain, otherwise accidents are easy to happen.
Ji Dongge concentrated on driving, while Hao Keai and Ning Yao didn't dare to talk casually.So they took advantage of this gap to silently observe the surrounding environment.
This mountain road was developed earlier, and only the entrance to the mountain has a surveillance camera, but Ning Yao just took a closer look, and two of the external lines of the camera were broken. If she guessed correctly, it should be broken .In other words, this section of the road is completely unmonitored.
Ning Yao cast his eyes out of the window, looked at the roadside less than one meter away from him, and looked at the sea surrounding the mountain, his brows wrinkled involuntarily.
This kind of road section is prone to accidents. If there is no monitoring, how can we find out the reasons behind the incident and the ownership of the responsible party?
But she didn't have time to think about it, and the car quickly reached the top of the mountain.
Before entering the film and television city, they parked the car in the parking area outside.Because the area on the top of the mountain is small and there is a shortage of parking spaces, everyone's cars can only be parked in this place, so at a glance, all kinds of luxury cars, nanny cars, and RVs are mixed together, which looks quite eye-catching.
All the good spots were taken by others. Ji Dongge turned the car into a corner, where a Cayenne and a car covered in gray cloth were parked. There happened to be another car in between the two cars. There was a parking space, and he parked the car there.
The atmosphere in the film and television city is full, and actors holding scripts and wearing costumes can be seen everywhere. They just stepped in and heard two people discussing within a few steps.
They don't look like actors, they wear casual clothes, casually dressed, and don't wear makeup, they look a bit like the assistants of a leading actor.
"Then director Wu doesn't know what he's doing. How many scenes have he changed since the filming started? In the original script written by the screenwriter, the victim sister of our sister Zhao was the most brilliant character. In the end, he changed and changed. It is the murderer played by Feng Nanfeng who caught people's attention!"
"That's right, Sister Zhao has been suffering from insomnia for the past two days. I heard that she has the idea of resigning. It was the leaders of our company who persuaded her to come down."
"You said that Director Wu just became popular, and he wasn't one of those famous directors in the industry. How dare he be so arrogant?"
One of the little girls seemed to hesitate for a moment when she heard the words, and when she spoke again, her voice was deliberately lowered a bit.
"Haven't you heard? That director Wu should have a backer. A few years ago, he was an unsuccessful young director, taking odd jobs everywhere to barely make ends meet. Later, he got an investment from nowhere and filmed " "Follow the Light" and then the movie became a big hit, and he gradually gained a firm foothold in the industry."
After listening to the other girl, she looked very interested, and asked gossipingly, "What do you mean? Do you think he has found some shady backer?"
"That's not what I said." The girl was a little careless, "Many people in the circle say so, and I heard it from others. And I also heard that his backer is an old and fat rich woman, but I don't know if it's true or not."
While talking, the two passed by Ji Dongge and the three of them. Ji Dongge glanced at the script in the hands of one of the assistants casually.
"Appreciating Lies", screenwriter Qian Lailai, director Wu Hao, starring Zhao Zhiyan and Feng Nanfeng.
After they walked away, Hao Keai asked: "If I remember correctly, Liu Mei's husband is called Wu Hao, right?"
Ji Dongge nodded: "Yes, that's him."
None of the three expected to hear a bunch of gossip about him before meeting the victim's family.
When they found the crew of "Detecting Lies", Wu Hao was directing a very important scene.Inside and outside the crew, except for the actors in the camera, everyone dared not make unnecessary noises, and Wu Hao's face looked very bad, as if he had endured to the extreme.
This scene is about the victim’s sister who learned that her boyfriend who was a car mechanic was the murderer of her sister, and there was no evidence to bring him to justice, so she looked at him tearfully outside the car repair shop, Emotions are very complex.The highlight is on the actress, and it all depends on the eyes, which requires a lot of distraction.
Obviously, Wu Hao is not satisfied with the performance of the actress.
He took off the headset and fell to the ground with a "slap". Before he could even speak, the people around him didn't even dare to breathe.
"Zhao Zhiyan, if I remember correctly, you have been acting for a few years, and you even won a Best Supporting Actress, and you act like this to me?"
Zhao Zhiyan has been going smoothly in the past two years. Although he is not a big celebrity, at least he has not been underestimated. This time, he refuted his face in public and refused to accept it for a while. He replied: "You think my performance is not good, change! Well done, who do you ask to come!"
A sneer appeared at the corner of Wu Hao's mouth: "Okay, don't go back on your word when the time comes, and press me with the employer's contract again!" After finishing speaking, he turned around and scanned the surrounding people with scrutiny, and finally fixed his gaze on Ning Yao .
"A new group performer?" Wu Hao looked her up and down while talking, and finally he pointed at her, "Okay, it's just you. You go and act in this scene, and if it's over, you come Act as the heroine of the play."
Everyone present was shocked when they heard it, especially the actresses in the movie, they all stared at Ning Yao unkindly, as if they couldn't figure out how she was so lucky.
When Zhao Zhiyan heard this, she became even more angry, and shouted loudly: "Wu Hao, what do you mean, are you comparing me with a group performer?"
Wu Hao laughed mockingly: "I just let you know your acting skills. With me, your performance is really similar to that of a group performer."
Zhao Zhiyan was so angry that she clenched her hands into fists, holding back to the extreme, and finally her manager whispered something to calm her down.
This accident made Ji Dongge frown, as if he wanted to say no for Ning Yao, but she suddenly pulled his sleeve.
She whispered in his ear, "I'll go to top it first. While everyone's attention is on filming, hurry up and go to Liu Mei's daughter to take notes. Liu Mei is missing, and the child has no guardian. She must have been following her." Dad is staying on set."
Ji Dongge understood what she meant, because of the questioning at Ge Hong's house in the morning, she always felt that Xu Yiping was suspected of instigating and promising to give a false statement in advance.Before coming to the crew this time, they had not contacted Wu Hao. He didn't know that the police were coming, so naturally he would not say anything to the child, so it is very likely that if he asks the child some questions now, the answers he gets are the most authentic.
But even so, Ji Dongge still felt that she was a little foolish. How could a person without any acting experience casually get involved in front of the camera?
"It's a big deal, I'll be scolded, it's okay, you go quickly." Ning Yao urged him.
Seeing that they kept biting their ears, the assistant director at the side also became impatient. He was afraid of procrastinating and provoking Wu Hao's anger, so he shouted loudly: "Little group performer, what are you thinking? What a great opportunity is in front of you, hurry up!" Come here and read the script and memorize the lines!"
After Ning Yao finished listening, he winked at Ji Dongge and ran over quickly.
In the end, he still pursed his thin lips, and after hearing what she said, he took Hao Keai and turned around to look for Liu Mei's daughter.
In the morning, he read the information on Liu Mei's daughter. Her mother's surname is Liu, and her name is Yi.From the photo, she is a very beautiful little girl with an oval face and big eyes, which is very recognizable.
With little effort, they found her in the rest area.
Liu Yi was lying on a simple desk doing homework, looking restless, looking at the mobile phone beside him after writing two words, his expression was also very disturbed.
After a while, the phone rang, and she was startled, then picked up the phone and answered the call.
While saying "Hello", she looked around to make sure that no one was paying attention to her, and then she felt at ease talking to the person opposite.
"Well, teacher... Dad is still making movies... Well, the police uncle hasn't come yet..."
Not knowing what the person over there said, Liu Yi suddenly bit his lips, with a hesitant and disturbed expression.
"But... but... But Mom did disappear the night after meeting Dad! And Mom was still driving Dad's car... What should I do? Teacher, I'm really scared now! Mom has disappeared, I'm afraid that my father will be taken away by the police uncles too!"
Hearing this, Ji Dongge's eyes darkened, and he quietly took back the steps he had taken.Hao Keai's eyes widened in surprise, and he subconsciously glanced at Ji Dongge.
Compared with their side, Ning Yao's side went much smoother.
Although she has never acted before and has no acting skills, her performance is very eye-catching.She is very young in terms of finding a camera seat, body performance, and expression management, but fortunately her eyes are deep.
Wu Hao was not satisfied with her performance, but he was not as harsh as the previous training on Zhao Zhiyan.When he yelled "Ka", he even praised her with a deadpan expression like "She has aura, she is a good seedling".But judging from his reaction, he didn't seem to intend to let her continue.
Seeing this, Zhao Zhiyan at the side immediately began to sneer.
"Hey, didn't our director Wu say that? A small group of actors is better than me, why don't you let her continue filming the next scene? It also gives me a lot of experience!"
Upon hearing this, Wu Hao glanced at her coldly, and said to the assistant director, "Go and get the script of the next scene and show it to the extras, and continue filming."
The assistant director was miserable, knowing that the two were fighting, but he had no good solution, so he could only listen to Wu Hao first.
Ning Yao originally thought that the filming was over, but unexpectedly there would be another one.When the assistant director was talking to her, Feng Nanfeng, who had been acting as a car repairman just now, came over.
Although she didn't pay much attention to the entertainment industry, she knew a thing or two about Feng Nanfeng.
He is one of the most commercially valuable traffic niches at the moment. He is synonymous with being handsome, sunny, gentle, and dedicated. He can be regarded as a rare perfect idol in the contemporary era.
Xu is used to seeing Ji Dongge's handsome face. Seeing the popular male star at close range this time, Ning Yao didn't feel much fluctuation in his heart, and nodded at him very calmly.
Feng Nanfeng is indeed a perfect idol, without the slightest aura of a big name, and smiled at her very kindly: "There may be some intimate scenes in the next scene. I just saw that you came with your boyfriend, right? Do you want to go first?" Talk to him?"
Ning Yao raised his eyebrows unexpectedly, before he could say anything, the assistant director beside him spoke first.
"Isn't it just a hug? It's an intimate scene!" He squinted at Ning Yao, "I don't have time for you to waste, show me the script quickly, don't make any fools."
Ning Yao carefully read the script, and it was indeed as the assistant director said, there was no excessively intimate scene.Besides, Ji Dongge should have found Liu Mei's daughter by now, and he was probably asking a question. If she went there rashly, it might attract Wu Hao's attention, so the gain would outweigh the loss.
After weighing it, she pulled out a polite and distant smile, and said to Feng Nanfeng, "It's okay, he's not a stingy person."
Then Wu Hao quickly called out, Feng Nanfeng in the camera was busy repairing the car at first, when he saw Ning Yao, he quickly climbed out with a smile.
He stretched out his arm to hug her waist, and said with a pleasant expression, "Why are you here?"
But before his hand touched her, a figure suddenly came into the camera.
Ning Yao only felt his wrist tighten, and after being pulled vigorously, he fell into the opponent's arms.
The breath in her nose was very familiar, she looked up, and it was indeed Ji Dongge.
He was staring at Feng Nanfeng quietly at the moment, his eyes were deep, and the aura around him was vaguely cold.
Feng Nanfeng was not annoyed by being thrown away, and he said to Ning Yao as if joking: "Aren't you a stingy person?"
Ning Yao didn't feel anything, just smiled slightly.Seeing this, Ji Dongge glanced at her coldly, as if saying "I'll clean you up later" with his eyes.
But this sudden change made Wu Hao very angry. He yelled at this side: "Who doesn't have eyes, didn't he see that the camera was working? Who told you to enter the scene casually? As for the assistant director, are you blind? ? You haven’t brought me out yet!”
Ji Dongge didn't talk nonsense, and dragged Ning Yao straight over.
Seeing this, Wu Hao was about to teach him a lesson, but Ji Dongge winked at Hao Keai, who took out his ID from his pocket.
"police."
Wu Hao seemed to be well prepared for Ji Dongge's arrival.Except for a flash of surprise in his eyes at the beginning, he remained calm afterwards. After telling the assistant director to arrange a temporary rest for the whole group, he followed them to the rest area.
At this moment, Liu Yi was still doing homework there, and when she saw Wu Hao bringing two strangers over, a trace of panic flashed across her immature face.
Wu Hao cut to the chase and asked, "The abduction case was solved? Did you find Liu Mei?"
Ning Yao wanted to respond, but was inexplicably held down by Ji Dongge.
"Did Liu Mei and Ge Hong come to see you on the night of the fourth of last month?"
"They came to see me, but I didn't see them. The scene that night was very important, and the whole crew was nervously filming. Where would I have time to see them?" Wu Hao looked very calm and natural, "If you If you don’t believe me, you can ask our group to come over with the photographer who made the documentary. I might leave the set for a while on other days, but I remember that day very clearly. I sat in front of the monitor and watched the actors filming all day, and I didn’t even have a toilet. Been there once."
As if eager to prove his innocence, he called the cameraman who was shooting the documentary on the set to come over after he finished speaking.
Ning Yao already had a lot of doubts in his heart, but seeing that Ji Dongge was not in a hurry, he didn't say much, and just watched the changes quietly.
After the photographer ran over, Wu Hao said to him: "Do you still remember the day when we filmed the murderer killing in the rain? You can find the documentary of that day and show it to the two police officers."
The photographer didn't know why, but he didn't say much. He turned around and found a laptop on the set, and took out a USB flash drive from his pocket.
"It's been too long, so I have saved all the previous documentaries in the USB flash drive." The photographer was looking for the video one by one, and after searching for more than half a minute, he finally found it. Here it is!" With that, he handed the laptop to Ji Dongge.
Ji Dongge took the laptop, glanced at the jumping timer at the bottom of the screen, and then looked up at Wu Hao.
"Mr. Wu, let me ask you one last time. Are you sure you didn't see Liu Mei and Ge Hong on May [-]th, and you didn't leave the set all day?"
Wu Hao slightly hooked his lips and nodded: "Of course I'm sure."
Ji Dongge was silent for a moment with a half-smile, and finally turned the computer towards Wu Hao, motioning him to look over.
"Then I would like to ask, why is the time on this documentary on May [-]rd?"
The swearing Wu Hao was taken aback after hearing this, and after realizing it, he seemed to be in disbelief, grabbed the computer, looked at it several times, and then suddenly burst into emotion.
With a bang, he dropped the computer to the ground, grabbed the photographer next to him by the neck, and shouted, "Did you do something wrong? Ah? Did you change the date of the movie? Did you ?”
The photographer didn't know what was going on, so he backed away in fright and kept shaking his head: "Director Wu, what are you talking about? I don't understand what you're talking about!"
Ji Dongge looked at Wu Hao coldly, then took out the phone from his pocket, and turned on the audio that was just recorded.
"But...but...but Mom did disappear the night after meeting Dad! And she was still driving Dad's car..."
Liu Yi's voice came out of the receiver, hitting Wu Hao's ears word by word, restraining the movements of his hands.
On the other hand, Liu Yi, who was on the side, heard his own recording without knowing anything, and his little face turned pale with fright.
Wu Hao stared at Liu Yi coldly, and said, "So, you doubt me because of a child's words?"
When Ji Dongge spoke again, his voice was cold and serious: "Shouldn't you be suspected?"
He tried his best to hide himself, thinking that he had an alibi, but after the incident was exposed, he became anxious and irritable in an instant. This is a typical post-crime psychology.
Although the evidence is not sufficient now, Ji Dongge is [-]% sure that even if Wu Hao is not the murderer, it has a lot to do with the victim's disappearance!
Hao Keai stepped forward first, and said to Wu Hao: "Mr. Wu, please cooperate with the investigation and come with us."
"Why are you leaving? I didn't kill anyone! Why do you take me away?" Wu Hao gritted his teeth and looked at Liu Yi, pointing at her, "This brat is framing me! I didn't see them at all! I didn't see them! "
Ning Yao was a little patient at first, but when he heard Wu Hao's denial, his expression sank.
"She is your daughter, what reason is there to frame you?"
"No, she's just my stepdaughter, not my own."
Wu Hao's words stunned the three of them, and Liu Yi's face became even paler after hearing Wu Hao's words, with an unbelievable look.
Ning Yao thought for a while, walked up to Liu Yi and said, "Can you go to the police station with your father and your uncle and aunt? Don't be afraid, if you haven't made any mistakes, your uncle and aunt won't do anything to you."
Liu Yi looked at her anxiously for a while, and finally nodded.
Under the scrutiny of everyone, the three brought Wu Hao and Liu Yi into the car.
On the other side, after confirming that Wu Hao was taken away by the police, someone hurriedly hid in a corner and made a call.
"He was taken away by the police, and it is estimated that the matter was completely exposed."
"Okay, thank you for your hard work."
"It's nothing to work hard, just remember to call the final payment as soon as possible."
"Don't worry, you can check your bank card in an hour."
Over there, Xu Yiping breathed a sigh of relief after hanging up the phone.
He leaned on the back of the sofa, glanced at Xu Xu who was listening carefully to the tutor's lecture not far away, and couldn't help but smile and said, "It's finally coming to an end."
After taking Wu Hao back to the police station, they did not rush to interrogate him, but locked him in the interrogation room alone, and asked his colleagues to carefully observe his reaction outside.As for Liu Yi, they were much gentler. Ning Yao specially bought some candy and snacks in a supermarket near the police station, and took the initiative to chat with her for a while. After alleviating her uneasiness, she went back to Ji Dong silently. song around.
Seeing that he was reading the two scripts, Ning Yao already had an estimate in his mind, picked up the chair next to him and sat down, and asked, "Wu Hao's version of the script is very different from the screenwriter's original script?"
Ji Dongge nodded, his profile looked cold and sharp.
The main line of the plot is not much different, but there are many more psychological narrations of criminals and his growth background, which is equivalent to whitewashing him in disguise, and it is understandable for him to commit crimes.
Once the concept of this character changes, it is equivalent to the change of the concept of the whole film.
Ning Yao glanced briefly at the contents of the script, with a slight sarcasm on his fair face.
"Typical pre-criminal psychology, which rationalizes criminal views and projects them onto the characters in the script, so as to hypnotize myself psychologically, and feel that I have done nothing wrong." The facts of the crime, I don't know whether he is too confident in himself or treats them as fools.
"However," Ning Yao seemed to have thought of something, "What is his criminal motive? What is his crime method?"
Ji Dongge took out his phone and played the recording of Liu Yi's phone call again.
"...and still driving Dad's car..."
Hearing this, Ning Yao raised his eyes, as if he understood something, and said, "Let's go and take notes with Liu Yi."
After she finished speaking, she got up on her own, but before she reached Liu Yi, a voice suddenly came from not far away.
"Xiaoyi!"
Ning Yao looked over there and found a young man hurriedly walking this way. After seeing him, Liu Yi ran over and threw himself into his arms.
"Teacher, you're finally here!" Liu Yi endured the sadness and anxiety all the way, and at this moment, she let out all of it. She hugged the young man's waist and cried hard, her small shoulders twitched, looking at the young man People feel distressed, "Dad, Dad... said... that I am not his biological daughter! Huh..."
The young man seemed a little surprised, his brows were slightly raised, and surprise flashed across his handsome face.
At this time, Ji Dongge came over, looked at the young man calmly for two seconds, and said in a deep voice, "If I remember correctly, you are Xu Nuo's tutor, right?"
Ning Yao remembered it as soon as he heard it, and took a closer look at the young man's face. Wasn't it the tutor who passed by them at Ge Hong's house?
The young people nodded to them: "Hello, my name is Jiang Ping, and I am Xu Nuo and Liu Yi's English tutor."
Ji Dongge raised his eyebrows slightly, and asked, "You taught the English of the two children?"
Jiang Ping nodded again, and his reaction was very natural and calm, without the embarrassment and anxiety of ordinary people entering the police station: "Because the parents of the two families are very familiar with me, they can safely entrust their children to me to teach."
Liu Yi was still crying, and a lot of tears and snot were on Jiang Ping's shirt. She sobbed and whispered, "Teacher, why did Dad say that he didn't see Mom and Aunt Ge that day? Why did he lie?"
Jiang Ping gently rubbed Liu Yi's head, looked up at Ji Dongge and Ning Yao, and said, "This child has been calling me for the past few days, and she said that she was very disturbed because Sister Liu and Sister Ge were there that day. She disappeared after meeting her father. At first she thought it was just a coincidence, but when she heard that the kidnapping case had been solved, but her mother hadn't heard from her... she started to feel a little panicked. Because she happened to be at the film and television city that day, And then her mother and her father..."
Speaking of this, he paused, and when he spoke again, he changed his address: "I changed cars with Mr. Wu. According to what she told me, she gave Mr. Wu's car keys to my mother when I changed cars. "
"Then can you tell auntie why father and mother have to switch cars?" Ning Yao asked Liu Yidao.
Liu Yi shook her head: "I don't know, my parents never said anything about it."
Ning Yao seemed to want to ask something else, but Ji Dongge's cell phone rang suddenly.
After answering the phone, Ma Xiaoliang hurriedly said: "Mr. Ji, come to Xu Yiping's animal hospital quickly! There is a problem!"
Ji Dongge took Ning Yao all the way to step on the accelerator and drove there. After arriving at the place, they were afraid of arousing surprise, so they didn't get out of the car to meet Ma Xiaoliang directly, but called him in the car.
"Tell me, why did you call me here in such a hurry?"
Ma Xiaoliang quickly replied: "Didn't my colleagues and I stare at him all the time, and then followed him all the way after he came out of the house. He drove directly to the pet hospital, but he didn't go in when he arrived, but waited for someone at the door." Yes. Then a group of people came, looking like a gangster, not like a good class, before we figured it out, the group of people punched and kicked him, tsk, the beating was terrible, after they stopped, it was like I said something to him again, and then dragged him into the pet hospital, and never came out again."
After Ji Dongge finished listening, his brows were furrowed, and he didn't relax after hanging up the phone.
He roughly told Ning Yao what Ma Xiaoliang said, and after she heard it, she frowned even tighter than him.
"Why do I feel that this case is getting more and more complicated..."
Ji Dongge didn't speak, but his expression seemed tacit.
And at this moment, the door of the pet hospital opened again, and the group of people Ma Xiaoliang just mentioned appeared in their sight.
Almost every one of those people held two cages, in which were kept some kittens and puppies. The small animals looked sick and lacked energy.After most of the people got into the car with their cages, the remaining one walked up to Xu Yiping.
They were too far away, so they couldn't see their expressions clearly, only Xu Yiping kept his head down, and the man patted his side face heavily while talking, looking very unfriendly.
After they drove away, Ji Dongge turned on the ignition and said to Ning Yao: "Call Ma Xiaoliang and ask him to keep watching Xu Yiping. Let's follow the group in front!"
They followed the group all the way to the western suburbs, and it was already dark at this time, the western suburbs are very lively during the day, there are some flower and bird markets and dog markets, but at night, it is desolate and dark, with few people.
Afraid that the target of driving the car was too big, Ji Dongge simply stopped the car at the intersection, and took Ning Yao to look for it carefully against the wall.
The group of people didn't go much further, they just found an open space at the dog market and parked the car, and then got out of the car one by one, throwing the cage on the ground casually, with a look of indifference.
Ji Dongge took Ning Yao's hand and quietly approached them.
In the dark night, everything was very quiet, and the group of people stood not far from them.Ning Yao was very careful with every step he took, for fear that some of them would suddenly turn around and find her and Ji Dongge.
But it was strange that although she took every step with extreme caution, she didn't really panic in her heart.
There was his warm and slender hand in the palm. She felt the temperature of his palm, and looked at his tall and slender back, feeling inexplicably in her heart: This man is indeed the source of all her sense of security. As long as he is around, she seems Not afraid of any danger.
However, despite being extremely careful, Ning Yao finally stepped on a branch.
With a click, the sound of the branch breaking was not loud, but it was still obvious in the quiet and empty night. Ji Dongge reacted instantly, pulled her back suddenly, and hid in a nearby wall.
The people over there turned their heads instantly, and one of them shouted, "Who's there?"
Ning Yao was held in front of Ji Dongge's chest, his breath was held tightly, and he didn't dare to make the slightest movement.Her face was pressed against his chest, and there was only a layer of T-shirt between her hard chest muscles and her cheeks. The unique breath on his body almost swallowed her, and her whole face was steaming with smoke.
At this time, she suddenly felt that the top of her hair was touched by something soft, very light and restrained.
She looked up and found that Ji Dongge was looking down at her, not at all guilty of being caught after doing something bad, she was very calm, and there was even a hint of a triumphant smile in her dark eyes.
The group of people seemed a little worried, the person who just shouted even took two steps towards this side, when he was getting closer to Ji Dongge and the others, a car suddenly drove into the gate of the dog market car.
There were more than a dozen people in the van, and when the car stopped, the people on it scrambled to get out of the car.
The driver lit a cigarette, leaned on the car, and asked aloud, "Didn't you usually come during the busy dog market during the day to deceive people? Why is it so late today?"
"It's not the man Ge Hong, don't mention it, I get a headache when I think of him. Guess what he said to me today? Hey! He said he wants to wash his hands in the golden basin!" , "Everyone has been tied to the same rope for so long, and now he says he wants to wash his hands and quit? It's a good idea!"
The driver seemed to find it quite funny, and laughed a couple of times in agreement.
At the same time, the group of young people walked around to the row of cages in front of them one after another, without looking at them carefully, they took a random cage one by one, and went to the side to scan the QR code to give money.
The person who was talking to the driver just now suddenly said: "Everyone knows the rules, and you all know how much you pay for your size, so be more conscious!"
The driver opposite smiled: "Are you still afraid that they will lose your money? Then how can I ask you to do something next time?"
The man also laughed, very maliciously.
After the transaction was completed, the two parties got into their own cars and drove away one after the other.
Seeing this, the two people in the corner quickly ran to the side of the road and got into the car, stepped on the accelerator, and managed to catch up with the group in front.
They didn't drive very far, but turned west and east around here and turned into a residential area.This is the old town, most of which are old bungalows that have been around for a long time. There are almost no people living here, and the houses are all empty. Looking up, it is pitch black.
After they parked the car in a yard, they got out of the car and entered the house.
Ji Dongge led Ning Yao into the yard, hesitating slightly, and after a while, he turned to look at her.
"Or are you waiting for me outside?"
Ning Yao frowned slightly: "Why are you still the same as before? At least I am the runner-up in Sanda in the game, so I won't be a hindrance."
He looked at her quietly: "Be obedient."
"No." She raised her eyes and looked at him with unclear meaning, "I want to be with you."
The simple five words seemed to please him, and the originally tense lines were inexplicably soft.He held her hand firmly: "Then follow me closely."
The two quietly walked towards the courtyard one after the other, under the silent night sky, the familiar emotion with the memories of the past was rolling slightly.
The people inside didn't stop after entering the room, laughing and laughing non-stop.A middle-aged man raised his voice and suddenly shouted: "Boss! There is only one left here, look...or give it to the brothers?"
The man who was called the boss was the man who taught Xu Yiping a lesson. Hearing this, he didn't seem to hesitate at all, and said directly: "Success! You can arrange it. Brothers are finished, let's cook dog meat again!"
The sound of footsteps gradually came from the house, Ji Dongge and Ning Yao quickly hid behind the car and watched carefully.
With a loud voice, he grabbed a dirty puppy out of the cage, took out a folding dagger from his pocket, and without hesitation, plunged it into the puppy's neck.
Ning Yao gasped, seeing the puppy screaming and struggling, and gradually dying after a while, her hanging hand clenched into a fist.
Who would have thought that the loud voice killed the puppy, but he still held a dagger and opened it up naturally with his movements!Then, he took out a bag of things from it.
The two took a closer look, and it turned out to be a pack of heroin!
As if enlightened for a moment, Ning Yao subconsciously widened his eyes and looked at Ji Dongge silently.But unexpectedly, he didn't look at himself, but turned his head and looked up and down.
An ominous premonition flooded her heart, and time seemed to slow down at this moment. She turned her head little by little, and finally saw a man holding a kitchen knife with a cold smile above her head.
The next second, the man smirked and chopped off the knife!Ji Dongge instantly pushed Ning Yao out, and he took a step back to the side.
The movement became louder, and the loud voice of Zaigou was also alarmed.
"What's going on?" he asked.
The smile of the man holding the kitchen knife became more gloomy, and he shouted: "Everyone, come out and have a look! Someone else offered to use the flowers and plants in our backyard as fertilizer!" Surrounded.
But there was no trace of panic on Ji Dongge's Qingjun face. He looked at these people coldly, and asked sharply, "Did Xu Yiping use the stray dogs in the pet hospital to cover your drug trafficking?"
Perhaps not only Xu Yiping, but even Ge Hong and Liu Mei should be connected with this gang.
The leader sneered and said, "What's the use of knowing so much? Anyway, I'm going to be a ghost with swords soon." After finishing speaking, a group of people approached with knives of different lengths. Under the moonlight, a dozen knives had a cold look cold light.
Ning Yao and Ji Dongge stood back to back tacitly, staring vigilantly at the person in front of them.
At this time, someone took the lead, raised her hand and slashed directly in front of Ning Yao, but she didn't show weakness, she raised her long legs, and kicked the man in the abdomen forcefully.
Then there was a panic, a group of people were few against many, fortunately, the two of them were among the best in their skills, and they didn't struggle too much at the beginning, but they were outnumbered, especially their physical strength. It didn't have the explosive energy it had at the beginning.
At this moment, Ning Yao's ankle was horribly stabbed. When she was so painful that her scalp was numb and she wanted to turn around to hide twice, she saw a dagger quietly raised behind Ji Dongge.
And right now, he was busy dealing with the four or five people in front of him, so he had no time to pay attention to what was behind him.
She almost didn't even think about it, and rushed directly behind him.
At that moment, there was only one thought left in her mind - she could only return his affection for so many years.
However, the expected pain did not come, replaced by the sound of gunfire whistling past his ears.Then, she saw the person who was about to sneak attack just now widened his eyes, and fell to the ground with a "thump"!
The accident happened so fast that no one expected it.After a while, Ma Xiaoliang's voice came from the door: "Don't move! Police!"
Ji Dongge didn't care about anything at this time, he just turned around and pulled Ning Yao into his arms, shouting, "Are you crazy?"
Ma Xiaoliang and the other police officers approached. Originally they wanted to care about their boss, but now seeing that their atmosphere was not right, they quickly shut up and put handcuffs on those drug dealers.
Ji Dongge's body was full of terrifying aura, he took a few glances at Ning Yao, and then dragged her to stride outside.
Her ankle had just been injured, and it was a bit difficult to walk at the moment. After following a few steps, Ji Dongge noticed something strange, and immediately hugged her up.
She put her arms around his neck and struggled uncomfortably, but in return he said with greater strength: "Do you still want your feet? Don't move!"
She pursed her lips, looked at his tense jaw, and finally fell silent.
Ji Dongge drove her all the way to the nearest hospital, ran up and down with her on his back, and did a series of examinations.
It was finally confirmed that she had no other injuries other than her ankle being stabbed, and Ji Dongge's heart was slightly relieved all the way.
He carried her into the car silently all the way, without saying a word to her the whole time, his face was still as gloomy as before, dripping ink.
After the car drove for a while, he somehow stepped on the brakes and parked the car on the side of the road.
Ning Yao only felt his waist tighten, and his whole body was suddenly brought into his arms, then his chin was pinched tightly, and his lips were tightly held by him.
With a domineering and violent deep kiss, Ning Yao felt that Ji Dongge was going to suck her soul away, his lips and tongue were full of vigor, which made her brain buzzing, and the heart in her chest seemed to want to suck her soul away. Like jumping out.
After a while, like a century, when she was released, her lips were already red and swollen, and a layer of mist gathered under her eyes.
His thumb lightly rubbed against her red lips, his eyes were dim, and then he panted lightly against her forehead.
When he spoke, there was a hint of ambiguity in his hoarse voice: "Are you trying to scare me to death?"
Ning Yao: ...
"Who gave you the courage to block the knife for me?"
Ning Yao: ...
"Do you think you can pay off what you owe me if you block the knife for me?"
He kissed her heavily again, and said in a low voice, "You're dreaming!"
The reason why Ma Xiaoliang and the others were able to rush to the location of the drug dealer in such a timely manner was entirely because of Xu Yiping's clues.
After Ji Dongge and Ning Yao left, they kept staring at Xu Yiping. Unexpectedly, after the guy went home, he packed a suitcase and hurried out.Ma Xiaoliang noticed that something was wrong, and quickly asked Hao Keai to call his colleagues in the bureau to check Xu Yiping's ticket purchase records.
really!He bought a ticket to go abroad, and it was one-way.
After they heard the news, they hurried to contact Ji Dongge, but his cell phone was still disconnected.
So when they arrived at the airport, they didn't care whether this would scare the snake, so they left the person behind first.
Unexpectedly, after they caught Xu Yiping, he felt as if he was suddenly discouraged, and sat on the ground exhausted, muttering to himself: "I don't want to continue... Enough is enough, I really think it's enough..."
He looked up at Ma Xiaoliang and the others, his eyes dead silent.
"If I take the initiative to provide you with clues to the police, can I be given a lighter punishment?"
Then, he confessed everything, and reminded Ma Xiaoliang and the others that those drug dealers were desperadoes. If Ji Dongge and Ning Yao were not to be in danger, they had better take them there quickly.
Fortunately... Fortunately, when they arrived, everything was still in time, otherwise the consequences would be unimaginable.
Ji Dongge originally wanted to send the injured Ning Yao home to rest, but she strongly refused. He had no choice but to turn around and take her back to the police station.
It was almost early morning, but the police station was brightly lit, and no one left.
When Ma Xiaoliang saw them coming back, he quickly got up to meet them.
"Mr. Ji, we have almost finished interrogating Xu Yiping. He has explained the whole process of the case. According to him, Ge Hong, Liu Mei and those drug dealers are a gang. The reason why the small animal charity was established is to use those drug dealers. The collected stray cats and dogs serve as cover for drug dealers and sell drugs."
Because the anti-drug team is very strict in cracking down on drug trafficking and drug use, the drug dealers are having a hard time. After racking their brains and thinking about it, they finally came up with such a way to cheat the world.
They take in the stray cats and dogs sent by caring people on weekdays, and when they reach a certain number, they are sent to the pet hospital in the name of treating small animals.Then the drug dealers sent large quantities of drugs to the hospital, and then Xu Yiping sewed the drugs into the bodies of the small animals one by one.
With such a protective umbrella, their lives are much easier. Not only do they no longer have to worry about selling drugs in entertainment venues, but they can also smugly sell drugs under the noses of others.
Ma Xiaoliang paused, and then said: "Xu Yiping also said that if Ge Hong and Liu Mei were really killed, then Wu Hao is the most suspected. Because Wu Hao has been helping them in that gang for the past few years. He knows many celebrities in the entertainment industry, especially those who are unsuccessful in the second and third tiers. They are under great pressure and depressed all day long. Such people are the easiest to be hooked. So after going back and forth, he became a pimp, helping those drug dealers in his circle and Wu Hao was still a small person who needed financial support when he married Liu Mei. In the past few years, with Liu Mei's financial help, he has become more and more smooth, and he wants to get rid of Liu Mei. But the two seem to have been There was no agreement, so Wu Hao became murderous in the end."
Ma Xiaoliang looked at Ji Dongge's face, paused, and carefully added: "Of course, these are just Xu Yiping's one-sided claims, and there is no key evidence yet."
"It's better to have a direction than no direction." He quickened his steps, then stopped suddenly, and turned to look at Ning Yao, "You rest first? Shall I interrogate him?"
Ning Yao shook her head, she had just gone through a life-and-death battle, and she was indeed very tired, but she always felt that it was unreasonable to let him run around alone.
And when she was in the police station, she was very sensitive to drug-related cases, so she didn't want to give up this opportunity for interrogation.
As if he had guessed what she was thinking, Ji Dongge didn't refute, just stretched out his hand to hold her white palm, and walked towards the interrogation room.
Ning Yao's face was a little hot, she was okay outside just now, now that the two of them are so close in front of so many acquaintances, she still feels embarrassed.After struggling hard, instead of breaking away, she got Ji Dongge's cold stare.
She had no choice but to bite the bullet and walk towards the interrogation room with him, facing the eyes of her colleagues.
The lights in the interrogation room were very bright, but they were obviously a bit harsh and pale at midnight.
Xu Yiping sat there, his already unattractive face was even paler under the white light.As if he had lost his soul, he sat there blankly, not knowing what to think.
Seeing someone coming in, like a frightened bird, he immediately sat up straight and looked at them nervously.
Before Ning Yao and the others could speak, he asked first, "I've provided you with so many testimonies, so the sentence should be reduced, right?"
Ji Dongge rolled his eyelids, and glanced at him lightly: "The sentencing depends on the amount of drugs you participated in trafficking. We will provide it to the court when you voluntarily confess. The judge will have his own judgment on what will happen in the end."
Not getting the answer he wanted, Xu Yiping collapsed and buried his face in his palm, panting continuously.
But Ning Yao didn't sympathize with him at all. Seeing him like this, she only had the word "serve it right" in her heart.
She said to Xu Yiping: "Before you get involved in drug trafficking, you should think about what the end result will be."
"No, I was seduced!" Xu Yiping couldn't control his emotions at this moment, and his voice was a little louder than before, "Ge Hong, that bitch! It's all her! She seduced me to marry her, the marriage Then she seduced me to work for their gang! She said it very nicely at the time, as long as I operate on small animals as usual, I can get a lot of money! Without her, I would not participate in these things Yes! It's all her! It's all her!"
"But you were seduced in the end, weren't you?" Ning Yao's eyes suddenly became sharp, and when he met Xu Yiping's eyes, he was aggressive, "If you had called the police as soon as you found out that she was a drug dealer, you wouldn't have There are the next things!"
She didn't even dare to think deeply about Xu Yiping's assistance in drug trafficking in the past few years, how many colleagues in the anti-drug department have returned without success, and how many drug dealers have escaped legal sanctions while doing human blood business because of his assistance. .
Ji Dongge held her hand gently, as if trying to comfort her.
He understood why she was so excited.Back then, she had a best friend who was assigned to the anti-narcotics team after graduation. After working for only two years, she died while arresting a drug dealer.
At the memorial service, Ning Yao cried very sadly.He still remembers what she said while holding him and sobbing.
"Our country has been depressed for nearly a hundred years because of drugs, and everything now is bought by those heroes with their flesh and blood. Those drug dealers, all deserve to die! All deserve to die!"
Ning Yao had never said such a serious word before that, which shows how much she hates drug dealers.
So seeing her like this this time, he immediately wanted to stabilize her emotions.
After seeing that she had no further reaction, he raised his eyes to Xu Yiping and asked, "Isn't Xu Nuo your biological son?"
Xu Yiping was taken aback, and after a while he figured it out: "Wu Hao told you guys about Liu Yi?" He smiled, mocking himself, "Yes, the promise is not my own, Wu Hao and I are two people. Before meeting Ge Hong and Liu Mei, they were single and could not give birth to such a big child."
"The Wu Hao you said earlier is probably related to the disappearance of Ge Hong and Liu Mei. Is there any evidence?"
"There is no evidence, but Wu Hao discussed with me at first, saying how to get rid of them. At that time, he proposed to get rid of them, so that our stains will be gone, and we can just get away in the future. I... I hate Ge Hong dragged me into the abyss, but he didn't hate her to the point of wanting her to die, so he refused at that time. He was still very angry at that time, and when he said that he got away, I don't blame him for not thinking about me .”
After Ji Dongge finished listening, there was no wave in his eyes: "Are you sure you don't want Ge Hong to die?"
Xu Yiping was stunned for a moment, then his eyes averted a little: "She is my wife, no matter what, I won't want her to die!"
Ji Dongge hooked the corners of his lips, his eyes turned cold.
"It's not that you don't want her to die, it's just that you don't dare to do it yourself!"
Xu Yiping seemed to have been exposed, and retorted: "What nonsense are you talking about!"
"If I'm not wrong, on the [-]th day, Liu Mei originally wanted to go to Wu Hao by herself. But you knew Wu Hao's plan, and you felt that something must happen that day, so you simply revealed some news to Ge Hong. , or more obviously, you lied that Wu Hao was emotionally abnormal. Ge Hong and Liu Mei are not only friends, but also a co-existing body of interests. She was worried about Liu Mei's accident, so she called Liu Mei after hearing what you said. Then that night, she accompanied Liu Mei to Kunshan Film and Television City."
Xu Yiping gritted his teeth and stared at Ji Dongge without making a sound.
"When we asked you to take notes before, the reason why you had that attitude was because you felt that this matter had nothing to do with you. You were not involved in it, so you are not afraid if it happens. The only vague hesitation is Ge The exact date of Hong's disappearance. You subconsciously don't want Wu Hao to be discovered by the police. After a long time like this, the disappearance case becomes an unsolved case, and you will be safer." Ji Dongge narrowed his eyes slightly, his eyes were cold, "You She covered him, and she also covered herself in disguise!"
After his words fell, Xu Yiping couldn't stand it anymore, and collapsed on the chair, like a pool of mud, his eyes were dull, and he stared up at the ceiling.
"Since you all know, why ask?"
After leaving the interrogation room, Ning Yao's mood was not stable yet.
Seeing her appearance, Ji Dongge suggested, "Why don't I go to interrogate Wu Hao myself?"
She shook her head: "I also want to hear how he is going to quibble."
"There is insufficient evidence now, and we may need to fight a tough battle next."
"I understand, but we still have a direction. Didn't Liu Yi say it before? My father and mother changed cars, and there must be a big problem with that car."
Ji Dongge nodded, didn't say any more, turned around and took Ning Yao into another interrogation room.
Compared to Xu Yiping, Wu Hao's state is much calmer.
Seeing Ji Dongge and Ning Yao come in, he just hooked his lips and sneered: "Officer, you can only detain me in the police station for 24 hours before there is no evidence to prove that I am a criminal? It has been four years since I came here." It's been five hours, why, you haven't found evidence yet?"
Ji Dongge ignored him, simply operated the equipment in the interrogation room a few times, and then the video of Xu Yiping just in the interrogation room was released.
After Wu Hao saw Xu Yiping, his expression began to change. When he heard the other party say that he was suspected of murder, his face became cold.
But he still insisted: "So, so far, you still don't have any evidence to prove that I have a motive for killing, right? Just based on a child and an accomplice of a drug dealer, you want to convict me?"
Ji Dongge looked at him calmly, and asked, "Let me make one final check. Are you sure you haven't seen Liu Mei and Ge Hong on May [-]rd or May [-]th?"
"Yes!" Wu Hao rolled his eyes and added, "We did call, but we haven't seen each other for a long time, so their disappearance has nothing to do with me!"
"How long is a long time? The specific time." Ning Yao asked.
Wu Hao's eyes moved down to the right subconsciously, and then he didn't look at them on the opposite side, subconsciously said: "It's been more than a month, we haven't seen each other for more than a month."
"you sure?"
"Yes, I'm sure!"
Ji Dongge and the others didn't say anything, they got up and wanted to leave.
Wu Hao became anxious and asked, "What do you mean? Do you still want to lock me up?"
Ning Yao turned to look at him, and said with a slight sneer, "Don't worry, haven't you already prepared for the procedure to go? When the time comes, we will let him go without evidence."
After leaving the interrogation room, Ning Yao looked straight ahead and said, "He was lying just now."
When a person is lying, his eyes will unconsciously look down to the right, which is to cover up his guilty conscience.When Wu Hao mentioned how long he and Liu Mei hadn't seen each other just now, this reaction was extremely obvious.
Ji Dongge nodded: "Now I can basically conclude that he has a great relationship with the disappearance of Liu Mei and Ge Hong. The most important thing at present is that we have to find evidence in a short time."
He walked forward quickly, and after seeing Hao Keyai, he asked, "Is Liu Yi still in the bureau?"
Hao Keai shook his head: "The child looked shocked, my colleague asked all the necessary questions, and then asked her tutor to take her home."
"Did you ask anything of value?"
"Yes." Hao Keai picked up the transcript on the table and handed it to Ji Dongge, "Liu Yi said that the last time she saw her mother was in Kunshan Film and Television City. Because Liu Mei was busy those few days, she followed Wu Hao stayed on the set, and that day Wu Hao's assistant suddenly took the car keys to Liu Mei and the others. Then Liu Mei drove Wu Hao's car and drove Ge Hong away."
"Where's Liu Mei's car?" Ning Yao asked, "Is it left in the film and television city?"
"Yes."
Ning Yao's eyes lit up, and he looked at Ji Dongge: "It seems that the car will be the key to our evidence collection!"
Ji Dongge nodded: "But seeing how confident Wu Hao was when he mentioned the evidence just now, he should have hidden that car well."
"Then you have to try it first." Ning Yao turned to look at Hao Keai, "Have you checked the surveillance in the city? Let's see what cars Liu Mei and Ge Hong drove that day."
Hao Keai pouted his chin at Ma Xiaoliang who was beside him, and the other party immediately understood, clicked the mouse a few times, and directly released the screened surveillance video.
"This is the last scene of Liu Mei and Ge Hong appearing on the surveillance camera. The time was indeed the afternoon of May [-]th, and after this section of the road is the road to Kunshan Film and Television City."
Ji Dongge asked: "Then they disappeared?"
"Correct."
Everyone didn't say any more, and looked at the surveillance carefully.
In the surveillance video, Liu Mei is sitting in the driver's seat, and Ge Hong is sitting next to her.Xu Shi was on the road under the sun, and both of them were wearing sunglasses, their faces could not be seen clearly, but judging from their attire, there was no doubt that they were the two of them.
Ji Dongge checked the license plate number, and it indeed matched Liu Mei's license plate number in the file.
Suddenly, Ning Yao seemed to have discovered something, and shouted: "Stop!"
Ma Xiaoliang quickly pressed the pause button, while Ning Yao looked at it, he pointed to the position of the front windshield of the car and said, "Here, zoom in."
After Ma Xiaoliang zoomed in on the screen according to the instructions, Ning Yao looked at it carefully for more than ten seconds, and finally raised his eyes to look at Ji Dongge.
"I've seen this car."
Ji Dongge raised his eyebrows slightly, and surprise flashed in his calm eyes.
"Where?"
"If I'm not wrong..." Ning Yao turned his gaze to the screen again, "This car is the one Feng Nanfeng repaired in the movie!"
On the way to Kunshan Film and Television City, Ning Yao was still carefully recalling the previous scene.
"This pendant is exactly the same as the one in the car in the play, and the green marks on the windshield are also arranged in the same order of color. As long as we find something in the car that can prove Liu Mei's DNA, Then Wu Hao's lie will be self-defeating!"
There was a little excitement in her eyes when she spoke, Ji Dongge looked at it calmly, as if a warm wind was blowing in her heart, she was very docile and comfortable.
Just like this, she regained her confidence and sense of accomplishment in the case little by little, and made this feeling greater than the impact of those things on her back then, so she shouldn't avoid it anymore, right?
Of course, he would not take the initiative to mention these things to her.At this moment, he just smiled and held her hand quietly.
After a group of people arrived at Kunshan Film and Television City, they were divided into two groups, one group took notes for the staff of the crew, and the other group went directly to pick up the car.
The crew still had lingering fears about what happened in the afternoon. When they saw the police, they were all shocked. They were afraid that some dirty water would be splashed on them, so they cooperated with the police's questioning and did not hide anything.
After asking a few people, Ji Dongge and Ning Yao were able to confirm that Wu Hao personally provided the car to the props team. As for the source, no one knew.Because the filming is more than halfway done, and the scene of repairing the car is almost finished, so Wu Hao called the vehicle scrapping office a few days ago and registered the car for scrapping.
In other words, if they found this clue a few days later, the evidence might really be gone.
Later, Ji Dongge and Ning Yao searched around in the car, and finally found a burnt cigarette butt in the corner.
"Wu Hao should have cleaned this car. Fortunately, the place where the cigarette butt fell off is special, otherwise there would be no trace." Ning Yao said.
Ji Dongge nodded, took out his mobile phone and called Ma Xiaoliang: "We have found evidence that can prove Liu Mei's DNA. You can go to Liu Mei's house now and get some toothbrushes or combs she used for comparison."
After bringing the evidence back to the police station and handing it over to the forensic doctor, Ning Yao felt relieved.
She sat on the sofa and thumped her shoulders, feeling a little tired.
"Are you hungry?" Ji Dongge sat next to her.
She shook her head, she was in a state of high tension all day, how could she still feel hungry.
Ji Dongge grabbed her waist and pressed her head into his arms: "Sleep for a while if you're not hungry."
This position was too intimate, just like when they were passionately in love, she couldn't bear it, and struggled to get up.
But how could he allow it, the strength in his hand increased, and when he spoke again, there was a hint of oppression in his tone: "At first I was afraid that you would not get used to it after being separated for so long, so I didn't dare to come up. But you have already Come back with me, and when we separated before, we didn't break up."
His arm around her waist was getting stronger and stronger, as if he wanted to wrap her whole body in his arms, his thin lips pressed against her ears, and he said in a deep voice, "So, I'm still your man, You have no reason to stop us from being intimate."
In fact, he originally didn't want to do it so quickly, the previous kiss was just the result of his loss of control.But today they experienced too many things, he almost lost her.This kind of panic spread in his heart and could not be subdued for a long time.So he didn't want to wait any longer, and he couldn't wait any longer.
She is now in a state of pushing one step at a time. If this is the case, there is no need for him to wait for her to figure it out, and take the initiative to approach her to ease the relationship.
Thinking of this, he lightly touched her earlobe and kissed her.
The warm and electric breath made her tremble uncontrollably, and she wanted to push him away again, but what she got in exchange was still a tighter hug.
"Actually, you should be glad that we have been involved in cases since we came back, otherwise you think I would let you go so easily?"
Ning Yao was stunned for a moment, and instantly understood the meaning of his words, his cheeks flushed, and the calmness and composure he had pretended almost directly failed.
She felt in a daze that Ji Dongge had returned to the state when they were not separated, domineering, strong, and at the same time infinitely gentle and tolerant towards her.
Inexplicably, this familiar feeling made her heart tremble violently.
After a while, when she thought of the purpose of coming back this time, the restlessness disappeared instantly.
Leaning in his arms, she gradually calmed down, without struggling any more, she fell asleep peacefully in that position.
Ji Dongge looked down at her side face, couldn't help kissing her lightly, and said in a low voice, "I wish you were always so good."
The forensic doctor did the comparison overnight, and finally sent the DNA test report in the early morning of the next day.
The report showed that the similarity of the DNA taken from the two samples was as high as 99.9%.So this report, as well as the monitoring records of Liu Mei and Ge Hong's last appearance, can already prove that the car belongs to Liu Mei.
And Wu Hao lied from beginning to end.
Wu Hao remained silent after seeing these evidences.Ning Yao and the others were not in a hurry, they just sorted out the documents slowly, and finally saw that he hadn't opened his mouth, so they said: "You can continue to keep silent, anyway, we have a direction now, at worst, run to the crew again and ask Just ask who are the actors who were close to you before, and then give them some urine tests, and then..."
Before she finished speaking, Wu Hao lost control.
He yelled: "No! No! You can't go to them! They've been exposed, and I'm done too! I've climbed to this position with great difficulty, and I can make the movie I want to make with great difficulty, I can't just fall down like this ! My movie career can't end like this!"
Ji Dongge's eyes were cold, and he stared at him closely: "Do you think you still have the possibility of making a movie? Drug trafficking! Intended murder! Saying anything is a capital offense!"
Wu Hao inserted his hands between his hair, bent his waist slightly, and lowered his head, his whole body was full of decadence.
"I can't do this... It's hard to come here now, I can't just fail like this... I can't... I can't..." Ning Yao knocked on the table twice, his eyes were extremely sharp: "It's useless for you to escape, now With witnesses and evidence, you have no other choice but to confess!"
At this point, a gleam of hope flashed in her eyes: "We did not find out the surveillance records of Liu Mei and Ge Hong going down the mountain, maybe...you didn't intend to harm them, but just imprisoned them?"
Wu Hao seemed to have lost his soul, thought for a long time, and finally shook his head: "They should be dead."
Seemingly knowing that he had no room for sophistry, he stopped wasting time and began to talk about his crime process.
"My motive for committing the crime, Xu Yiping has said before. The reason why I want to kill her is because she has been relying on me and won't let go. I'm tired of that life of fear, not to mention my film career It's getting better and better, I climb higher and higher, and I don't want to fall again! So, I took a risk."
After Wu Hao made a murderous attempt on Liu Mei, he often looked for opportunities to go home, while observing Liu Mei's daily habits, while thinking about how to attack Liu Mei without anyone noticing.By chance, Liu Yi read an extracurricular book that attracted him. It described how the murderer used a modified car to commit murder.As if he had found an opportunity, he returned to the set and began to make arrangements.
He tampered with his car, and after preparing everything, he called Liu Mei, saying that there was something wrong with his car, and asked her to help drive down to fix it.And after Liu Mei passed by that day, he pretended to be very busy, handed over the car keys to the assistant, and asked the assistant to pass them on.He originally thought that the news of Liu Mei and Ge Hong's accident would come soon, but for some reason, he waited for a day and a night, but he still didn't get the result he wanted.Until later, two co-stars in the crew suddenly discussed in a low voice. It seemed that that night, someone saw a car fall into the sea at the bottom of the mountain.
It was then that he suddenly realized that things seemed to be different from what he expected, but after thinking about it again, if it was true what they said, the result would be even better than what he expected.
This kind of thought made him a little carried away, and he erased the evidence against him bit by bit-he took off the license plate of Liu Mei's car, buried it in the back mountain of the film and television city, and then directly provided the car to the props team.After all, the more dangerous the place, the safer it is.The assistant who handed over the keys for him was also sent abroad by him to help him negotiate several projects, and he had no time to return to China in the short term.
After doing all this, he even called the police, pretending to report to the police that his wife was missing, and at that time, it happened to coincide with a woman abduction case in the city...
He felt that everything was God's will.Liu Mei and the others should be damned, so he killed them, and even God was helping him deal with the aftermath!
After that, he kept hinting to himself, and even changed the script again and again, and once regarded the murderer in it as himself, and kept cleansing it.
It's just that he didn't expect that no matter how strong the psychological suggestion was, no matter how many coincidences, in the end...he couldn't escape the police's pursuit.
He slumped on the chair, and his short adult life kept reappearing in his mind like a fast-forward camera: Unwillingness—meeting Liu Mei—cautiously probing at the edge of the law—tasting the sweetness brought by money ——Slowly emerging in the industry I love until now.
He seemed to be working very hard and had been working hard for his dream, but now that he thought about it, it seemed that there was nothing left that was worthy of his repeated memories.
And the career he valued the most has become unrecognizable because of the mixture of desire.His unscrupulous methods eventually harmed himself.
After walking out of the interrogation room, Ning Yao's mood was very complicated.
Wu Hao seems to be the epitome of a typical type of person in today's society. Under the banner of dreams, he uses opportunistic and shady means to make himself profitable, gaining social recognition and a sense of accomplishment.
The outcome of such people is mostly predictable.
"If you want to realize your dream, you still have to be down-to-earth, otherwise, like him, the things you shoot will distort the three views, and something will happen sooner or later." Ning Yao sighed.
Her voice fell for a long time, but Ji Dongge did not respond.
She looked back at him in a little surprise, and asked, "What are you thinking?"
"Don't you think there are still a few doubts in this case?"
"You mean Wu Hao's previous denial of the time of the incident?"
Ji Dongge nodded, his handsome side face was a little serious: "Yes, how could a person with a thorough plan make such a low-level mistake as misreading the time? And there are two details..."
He paused, his eyes became dark: "He said he gave the key to the assistant, but why did Liu Yi hand it over in the end? Also, he found the way to kill people because he happened to see an extra-curricular book written by Liu Yi And the reason why I doubted him at the beginning was because Liu Yi called to say that Liu Mei went to look for him before he disappeared, and I happened to hear it."
"what do you mean?"
"One coincidence is understandable, two coincidences are acceptable, but so many coincidences..." Ji Dongge's face became more and more gloomy, "then we have to think carefully about whether these are coincidences or not."
Ji Dongge and Ning Yao stayed together for two days and one night, and considering Ning Yao's foot injury, Ji Dongge decided to take her home to rest for a night, and then think about the rest after waking up.
After arriving home, Ning Yao was truly relaxed, and the exhaustion that he didn't feel before was infinitely magnified at this moment.She limped to the sofa and sat down, her body limp into a pool of mud.
Ji Dongge took two sets of pajamas out of the bedroom, threw one to her, and changed the other by himself.
He took off his T-shirt in front of her, and instantly exposed his lean waist and muscular chest muscles to the air. His skin was not a healthy honey color like that of ordinary men, but it was the same as his face, very white.
Ning Yao's cheeks became hot, and he looked away: "Can you go into the bedroom and change?"
Ji Dongge raised his eyebrows slightly, but his hands didn't stop. He even took off his pants in front of her: "Did we meet honestly less often before? Why are you awkward?" He said, Stretching his long legs to the cuffs of his trousers, he put on his gray pajamas in a few strokes. He didn't care about the pajamas left on the sofa, and walked towards the kitchen topless.
"Tomato and egg noodles?"
"Whatever." Ning Yao didn't look at him, and walked to the bathroom with his pajamas.
Ji Dongge looked at her back, a successful smile flashed in his eyes.Sure enough, his previous method was too roundabout and too gentle. To deal with a stubborn person like her, he should be more direct and forceful.
They had been separated for so long, and he didn't want to waste any more time repairing their estranged relationship.Anyway, in his eyes, her departure was only temporary, and the state of the two should be as close as before.
He didn't want to give her time to adapt, and there was no need for her to adapt.
When Ning Yao came out after taking a shower, Ji Dongge had already cooked the noodles.
Two bowls of spaghetti and egg noodles with little soup were placed on the dining table. The noodles were stained red by the soup of spaghetti, and they were soft and rotten placed in the porcelain bowl. Poached eggs.
Ning Yao used to like the noodles he cooked very much, but now he was really hungry, so he didn't say much, and sat directly at the dining table.
She picked out a chopstick of noodles and put them into her mouth, the slightly sour and fragrant taste instantly spread on the tip of her tongue. This hot and familiar feeling made her heart warm inexplicably.
Ji Dongge didn't move his chopsticks. He sat across from him and lit a cigarette. His handsome face with sharp lines was hidden in the thin smoke, and he stared at her quietly.
Seeing him not moving, she raised her eyes and looked over: "Why don't you eat?"
"I'm afraid you don't have enough to eat." He flicked the cigarette ash and said.
She glared at him, and replied: "I've said it all, now my appetite is not as big as before."
He couldn't help curling the corners of his lips, and put the cigarette butt out in the ashtray: "It's okay, you've always had a bird's stomach." Then, he picked up the chopsticks and put the fried egg in his bowl into Ning Yao's. in the bowl.
The fried egg tasted really good, so she didn't hesitate to put it in her mouth and took a bite.
She chewed and asked, "Shall we go directly to the film and television city tomorrow?"
Ji Dongge didn't raise his head, and replied: "Yes. Didn't Wu Hao say that Liu Mei and Ge Hong drove into the sea and fell into the sea from the mouths of two extras? The department has not received a report, so the possibility of false dissemination of news cannot be ruled out, and we will investigate tomorrow."
"Yes, I also find it strange. If someone really saw a car crashing into the sea, how could they not call the police?"
When she was talking, she happened to hold a chopstick of noodles in the air, but when she talked about the case, the movement of her hands suddenly stopped, with a thoughtful expression, and her hands did not move.
Seeing her serious and serious look, he couldn't help but think of her appearance when she was handling the case before, his heart moved, and he got up suddenly.
Across the dining table, his tall, slender figure pressed towards her, his head tilted slightly, and his thin lips covered her red lips.
Ning Yao was a little surprised, and stared at him with almond eyes, only to see that his dark eyes were smiling at her, his mouth was slightly opened, and he gently held her upper lip.
This kiss contained no lust, only intimacy, and he didn't even give her a chance to react, and he straightened up in just a few seconds.
She looked at him silently, her expression was not as relaxed as before, her eyes seemed to be accusing.But he didn't respond at all, instead he said: "What's your expression? You didn't want to get close to me in front of everyone at the police station, so now I can kiss you when I go home?"
Her expression was a little cold, she lowered her head and stopped looking at him, and replied, "You clearly know what I'm thinking."
Ji Dongge's expression couldn't be maintained anymore, his lips were slightly pursed, and he stared at her quietly: He knew, how could he not know!He knew what she was thinking from the moment she rejected him and came back from him.
But so what?He reached out to caress her cheek, gently wiped off the soup from the corner of her mouth with his thumb, looked at her deeply, and said, "When you left, we didn't break up."
The implication is that what he does now is reasonable and reasonable, and it is a right that a boyfriend should have.
She understood what he meant, and holding the chopsticks with her fingers, she quietly stirred the noodles in the bowl.
"And then? In the past three months, we have had a short period of affection, and when the time is up, we will tear apart like before?"
"You think too much, it is impossible for us to separate again." His eyes darkened, and he stared at her closely, "We have been separated for nearly a year, and you have no other skills, but my kung fu is first-rate."
Ning Yao looked calm, met his gaze, and said, "It's not nearly a year, but a whole year and seven days. Before the serial murder happened, we hadn't seen each other for nearly three months."
What she said surprised Ji Dongge: "So? What else do you want to say?"
Ning Yao sighed inaudibly, and turned to look out the window: "Did you think that you were the only one who suffered in that parting? I was heartless from the beginning to the end, otherwise how could I just give up everything I had? ?”
Ji Dongge didn't speak, just looked at her quietly.
"In fact, wandering outside for nearly a year is longer for me than the past twenty years of my life. Apart from working hard every day, I want to find the evidence and find the murderer as soon as possible, and I am still worried about you Your safety." She said, her eyes were a little sad, "I don't want to return to a normal life? I also want to. But I have lost my master, and I can no longer selfishly ignore your safety. Now that any one of you has an accident, I will There is no way to bear it."
She spoke the truth, but Ji Dongge was not moved at all after hearing it.
He even smiled and replied: "You don't need to dig a hole for me. I taught you the tactics of slowing down the army and retreating to advance. You still don't believe in yourself or me."
She hung her head and said nothing, as if by default.
Ji Dongge held back the depression and irritability in his heart, stood up calmly, and said, "Go back to your room to rest after eating."
He dumped the uneaten noodles in the bowl directly into the trash can, then turned around and walked to the living room, where he curled his legs and nestled on the sofa.
Seeing him like this, Ning Yao knew that he was secretly competing with her again and got angry.It's just that she's not in the mood to coax or persuade him right now, and after eating up the noodles in the bowl in a few mouthfuls, she went back to the bedroom.
When he heard the sound of closing the door, Ji Dongge raised his eyelids, and after glancing at the closed door, the pent-up anger in his heart became heavier.
At this moment, the bedroom door suddenly opened again, Ning Yao took out a blanket and carefully covered Ji Dongge's body.
After she left, the person who was pretending to be asleep suddenly opened his eyes and looked at the blanket on his body. His cold expression gradually softened, and there was even a hint of a smile at the corner of his mouth.
He pulled the blanket up, closed his eyes again, and had a dreamless night.
Early the next morning, Ji Dongge and Ning Yao did not report to the police station, but drove to the film and television city.After investigating in the entire film and television city, they got the result that only a few close staff members around Wu Hao knew about the car crashing into the mountain.Who sent the news in the first place, but they don't know.
On the way back, Ning Yao frowned tightly.
"I always feel that the news is fake, someone told Wu Hao deliberately."
Ji Dongge tapped his fingers on the steering wheel and didn't speak, but his expression seemed to be acquiescing.
"Also, I just suddenly thought of a point we had forgotten before." She turned her head to look at Ji Dongge, "Do you still remember what you promised at that time? We thought he was threatened by Xu Yiping, so we would I said those words for Xu Yiping. But now that I think about it, Xu Yiping can't remember the vague date, how could Xu Nuo remember it so clearly?"
"Yes, so there must be someone behind Wu Hao who is controlling the whole case, even controlling the process of his crime, and guiding us quietly." Ji Dongge said.
Ning Yao thought about it for a while, and then, as if suddenly realizing something, she suddenly turned her head to look at him.
"What if... we misjudged the date of the victim's disappearance in the first place?"
Ji Dongge instantly understood what she meant.At the beginning, they would be the first to determine the date of the victim's disappearance, because they learned the date of Ge Hong's disappearance from Xu Nuo.In addition, the monitoring video of the road section was retrieved later, and the last date Liu Mei and Ge Hong appeared in it was also May [-]th, but if the promise is false, the video may not be completely true!
Thinking of this, he stepped on the gas pedal and exerted force, and the car drove towards the police station even faster.
After returning, the first thing they did was to retrieve the surveillance video of May [-]th.
This time, they observed more carefully than before, and they didn't even miss the pictures of the rest of the road. During the several hours' journey, as long as the surveillance cameras captured pictures of Liu Mei and Ge Hong, they would watch them repeatedly.
Suddenly, Ji Dongge yelled sharply: "Stop!"
Then, he rewound the video just a few seconds ago, and zoomed in on Liu Mei's picture.
On the screen, Liu Mei's forehead that was originally covered by bangs was exposed due to the wind, and a small black mole on the forehead also appeared faintly.
Ji Dongge stared at the video without looking away, stretched out his hand towards Ning Yao, and said, "Give me Liu Mei's information and photos."
Ning Yao hurriedly searched for documents and photos, and handed them to him directly when he found them.He looked at it carefully, compared it with the video, and finally pointed to Liu Mei on the video, and said, "This person should not be Liu Mei, the real Liu Mei doesn't have a mole on her forehead at all."
Everyone was taken aback, and they scrambled to pick up the documents and photos to see. Sure enough, Liu Mei in the photo had a neat ponytail, her forehead was smooth and fair, and there was no mole at all!
Ning Yao came to his senses in an instant, looked at Ma Xiaoliang, and said, "You immediately transfer the surveillance video of May [-]rd from the traffic police team, especially the one near the main line of Kunshan Film and Television City!"
Ten minutes later, the traffic police sent over the surveillance video.After clicking on the video, everyone held their breath. Two minutes later, the figures of Liu Mei and Ge Hong reappeared, and their attires were almost exactly the same as those in the May 2th video!
Ji Dongge and Ning Yao raised their heads tacitly, their eyes met in mid-air, and they were silent for a while.
Finally, Ji Dongge said: "We will go to interrogate Wu Hao immediately and ask him the exact location where Liu Mei's license plate was buried!"
Later, according to Wu Hao, he buried the license plate under a big tree on the back mountain of the film and television city, because the light there was too dark, and few film crews would go there to shoot scenes, so it was not easy to be found there.
After Ma Xiaoliang and the others got this information, they rushed over without stopping, but they almost dug out the soil around the tree, and they couldn't find the license plate he had hidden.
Ji Dongge and Ning Yao didn't seem too surprised when they got the news.
Ning Yao looked at the surveillance video on May [-]th again, and calmly said: "Now we can be sure that there is a real culprit behind Wu Hao."
Ji Dongge nodded: "Not only that, that person should be very familiar with Wu Hao, and he can come and go from his side at will without being noticed."
"I know who you're talking about." Ning Yao pursed his lips, and the figure of Liu Yi's child appeared in his mind, "But I still think... Liu Yi was only in junior high school, so he wouldn't do such a thoughtful thing. And , she has no reason to hurt her mother."
"According to the current development of the situation, we can no longer use normal thinking to think about problems." He stood up, picked up the car keys on the table, "Let's go, let's go to Liu Yi's school to talk to the teacher first."
Today is the weekend and the students are on vacation, but Liu Yi's head teacher is still on duty at school.
The teacher in charge was a very elegant middle-aged man who looked very decent and gentle. When he heard the two came to ask about Liu Yi's daily situation in school, he couldn't help but look at them a few more times.
"Did something happen to Liu Yi?"
Ning Yao quickly shook his head: "No, it's just that the case of her mother's disappearance is still pending, and we're just investigating the situation as a matter of routine."
The head teacher nodded in understanding, then recalled for a few seconds, and put the tea mug in his hand on the table.
He said: "That kid Liu Yi is indeed a little different from ordinary kids."
According to the class teacher's words, Liu Yi is a somewhat anxious child, and he is very good at lying.On weekdays, when classmates or teachers point out some of her shortcomings, she will forcefully refute, and occasionally even rise to verbal violence.Moreover, she lacks initiative in her studies, often copies her classmates' homework, is not active in class, and is very slack.
Speaking of this, the head teacher seemed to have thought of something, and said again: "Also, that child seems to be very afraid of the sound of the clock. During a lunch break, she was afraid of oversleeping, so she asked her deskmate to help keep track of the time. Later she When she went out to play ball at the table, she set the time of her small alarm clock and placed it on her table. Unexpectedly, when she heard the sound of the alarm clock, she trembled with fright, and even smashed the small alarm clock at the same table. "
After hearing this, Ji Dongge and Ning Yao glanced at each other.
Then, Ning Yao asked again: "Then is she usually dependent on her parents?"
"Not strong. The cafeteria in our school will provide students with lunch, but most of the parents of the children will also bring some cut fruits to the students. Her words... I have never seen it once. There are also the last two parent-teacher meetings, None of her parents came. I called the parent contact phone number she left behind, and it wasn't her parents who answered the phone, but her tutor."
The two kept these words in their hearts, and then asked about some daily things, Ji Dongge and Ning Yao got up and said goodbye.
Before leaving, Ji Dongge said: "The case is still under investigation. I hope you can keep the matter of our coming to you for questioning this time."
The head teacher nodded quickly: "I understand, I understand, I will definitely cooperate with your work."
After walking out of the office, Ning Yao said directly: "Liu Yi should be a child who grew up under the shadow of domestic violence."
She lacks initiative, escapes from life, and has no dependence on her parents... These abnormalities are very common when taken apart, but together they resemble the characteristics of children who have been subjected to domestic violence.
and……
"She should be a PD patient just like Xu Nuo." Ji Dongge said calmly.
Ning Yao nodded: "Yes."
She thought for a while, and said to herself: "But what exactly has she experienced that made her so afraid of clocks and watches?"
"There's no need to think about these carefully. What we should think about now is whether Liu Yi is the person behind Wu Hao."
Although there are various indications that the whole case has a great connection with her, just as Ning Yao worried, Ji Dongge also feels that a child as old as her should not have such meticulous thinking and strong execution ability .
"If it wasn't her, who would it be?" Ning Yao thought as he walked, "But now that I think about it carefully, the parents of the two children know each other and they are both suspected of domestic violence. Maybe Xu Xu's original words were really true. I said it because of Liu Yi...or maybe, the murderer was someone he and Liu Yi knew together..."
Speaking of this, Ning Yao suddenly stopped in his tracks, and Ji Dongge at the side also seemed to have an epiphany, slowly raised his head, and met her eyes.
Adults who have strict logical thinking and strong case execution ability, and have close contact with Xu Nuo and Liu Yi, besides their respective parents, there is another person - their common tutor, Jiang Ping!
Jiang Ping's daily life is very simple. He goes to school, works as a tutor, and goes home.He is studying in one of the medical universities in the city, and usually he is a commuter and does not live on campus.
Just after class, he said goodbye to his close classmates with a smile as usual, and then rode home alone.
Ji Dongge drove the car and followed him not far or near.Ning Yao in the passenger seat took the materials that Ma Xiaoliang and the others had just sent, and looked through them carefully.
"According to the data, Jiang Ping was a child with excellent character and learning since he was a child. When he first entered college, he wrote many research papers and won awards." When she said this, she narrowed her eyes slightly and looked at the information in front of her eyes. Together, "Most of the topics above are to call on the society to pay attention to those children who have suffered domestic violence, and to pay attention to their future growth..."
Ji Dongge has a serious expression, his eyes are dim and unclear.
After a while, he slammed the steering wheel and turned the car around.
"Inform Ma Xiaoliang and the others that we will go to Jiang Ping's parents, and they will take over from us and continue to monitor Jiang Ping."
This document contains information about Jiang Ping's parents, which shows that his mother died when he was young, and he has been living with his father.My father was a truck driver earlier, and has been driving a taxi for the past two years.
When looking for a taxi shop, the two did not directly identify their identities, but only said that they wanted to meet Jiang Ping's father.When the driver who wanted to receive them heard it, he said with a little surprise: "Don't you know? Jiang Feng asked for sick leave, saying that he had some kind of tumor on his body, and his relatives took him to other provinces for treatment."
"Ask for leave? Did he tell the boss himself?" Ning Yao asked.
The driver shook his head: "That's not true, it was his son who called."
Ji Dongge's jaw line was a little tight, and his expression was serious: "Then do you remember how long he was on leave?"
The driver thought for a while, and finally said: "It should be more than a month."
When they got out of the taxi, Ning Yao and Ji Dongge were silent for a while.
After a while, she spoke first: "Jiang Ping's father should have disappeared together with Liu Mei and Ge Hong."
Ji Dongge glanced at the continuous flow of traffic in front of him, and gave a soft "hmm": "And judging from the current situation, Jiang Ping has sufficient motives for committing the crime."
Ning Yao looked far ahead, quickly filtering the information and clues he had obtained in the past few days in his mind, and finally frowned in doubt: "If Jiang Ping's goal is to kill Liu Mei and Ge Hong, then he doesn't need to worry about it afterwards. Find someone to spread the news of the car falling into the mountain to Wu Hao. Anyway, he has already killed someone with a knife, so it is pointless for him to do anything else, and it is easier to attract the attention of the police. He should not be so stupid, unless..."
Ji Dongge answered in a timely manner: "Unless he wants everyone to think that Liu Mei and Ge Hong really got into an accident because they got in that car, including Wu Hao himself."
"Yes." Speaking of this, Ning Yao frowned even tighter, "But Wu Hao also said that he tampered with that car, so how did Jiang Ping manage to avoid accidents without knowing it? Unknowingly taking people and cars away? We checked Wu Hao’s car before, and after the incident, it never appeared in the surveillance section of the city, as if it really disappeared from the mountain.”
After pondering for a moment, Ji Dongge said, "What if Liu Mei and Ge Hong didn't get in that car?"
His words seemed to have opened up Ning Yao's thinking, and she stared at him with wide eyes: "If that's the case, then Wu Hao's car should still be in the film and television city!"
After she finished speaking, she grabbed his wrist: "Come on, let's find a car."
Ji Dongge looked at her, pursed his lips and smiled, then looked down, and looked at her hand covering his wrist, with the palm facing up, he turned it so that her palm fell into his own.
She originally wanted to break away from his hand, but after thinking about the quarrel between the two last night, she finally let him in silence.
As a result, the smile on Ji Dongge's lips became more intense.
Ji Dongge informed Ma Xiaoliang and the others that, except for the group monitoring Jiang Ping, the rest of the team would come to Kunshan Film and Television City to help find the car.
Because the film and television city is too big, and there are too many people and chaos, if they have too few people, things will be really difficult.
After going up the mountain, Ning Yao told those colleagues again, telling them not to reveal their identities for the time being.Everyone understood the confidentiality of this case and nodded in agreement.
And the two of them were not idle, they went up the mountain together with their colleagues, and after arriving at the film and television city, they began to split up.
They first briefly scanned the cars on the open space outside the film and television city, but they couldn't find what they were looking for. All got nothing.
Two or three hours passed, and everyone experienced excitement and disappointment.Ning Yao stood on the steps and looked around, with a slightly sad expression.
"Are we heading in the wrong direction?"
Ji Dongge stood next to her, did not speak, squinted his eyes slightly, and looked at the parking space in the distance.
Suddenly, he walked down the steps, took a step with his long legs, the soles of his feet were like the wind, and walked quickly to a corner of the parking lot.
Ning Yao felt that the place he went to looked familiar, it seemed to be the place where they had parked the car when they first came here.She still remembers now that they were sandwiched between two cars, a Cayenne and a…
Her thoughts came to an abrupt stop here, and her originally slack eyes suddenly became clear, staring fixedly at Ji Dongge.
I saw him standing in front of the car covered with a gray cloth, without hesitation, he raised his hand and pulled the cloth.
"My car is an Audi A6, license plate number: C-6689, and a string of prayer beads hangs in front of the windshield."
Ning Yao approached quickly, recalling those characteristics in his mind while walking, and then checked them one by one with the car under the car cloth.
Audi A6...
C-6689...
Beads...
Everything is right!
Ning Yao was so excited that her scalp was a little numb, she looked at Ji Dongge: "We guessed right!"
Not only did they guess right, she even felt that the case was very dramatic now.It turned out that the crucial evidence of the case had passed them by at the beginning.
In contrast, Ji Dongge's reaction was much calmer. After silently looking at the car body for a few moments, he put the car cloth back on.
Ning Yao thought about the meaning of his actions, and finally asked tentatively: "Do you want...to invite you into the urn?"
The movements of his subordinates didn't stop, and his eyes were indifferent: "Yes."
In a dark room, two women and a man were sitting on the floor with their hands and feet bound.Their faces were pale, their hair was greasy and messy, and the clothes on their bodies seemed to have not been changed for a long time, emitting a foul smell.
Their limbs, chest and back were covered with large and small wounds and bruises, and their cheeks were slightly red and swollen, as if they had been beaten for a long time.
At first, the few people were still powerlessly drowsy, but suddenly, there was a faint sound, the sound of a key being inserted into the lock, it was not loud, but it was like a saw dipped in salt, stabbing their hearts one by one.
For a few seconds, they were so nervous that they even forgot to breathe, staring at the door that was about to open.
crunch.
The door opened slowly, and a gentle and handsome face appeared behind the light.He smiled slightly, that smile was obviously very gentle, but in the eyes of several people, it couldn't help but make people shiver.
The young man walked up to several people in a few steps, and slowly squatted down when they kept rubbing back against each other in panic.
He patted one of the women's faces, and his smile deepened.
"I heard that when Liu Yi was young, you often locked her in an empty house with no one around?"
The woman couldn't help shaking her head in fright, her eyes looked down in horror, fixedly staring at the hand resting on her face, that gaze was very much like staring at a poisonous snake that spit out a letter.
But the young man seemed to have not seen her reaction, and continued to talk to himself: "Liu Yi said that she still remembers that there was nothing in the empty house except for a wall clock on the wall, and her words echoed. During the days when she was locked in, she was very scared every day, and later, she even lost control when she heard the sound of the clock ticking."
The young man's smile became brighter and brighter, and his eyebrows and eyes were even stained with a little smile.
"Then let's play something different today." He said, he got up and went out, and when he came back, he held a few small alarm clocks and some unknown objects covered in bags.
He tied the unknown objects around the waists of several people in turn, then fixed the alarm clock on the unknown objects with scotch tape, and finally removed the bag above.
Several people involuntarily looked at their waists, all anxious to know what was on their bodies.
And the moment their eyes came into contact with that thing, the eyes of several people couldn't help but widen, and there were bursts of wailing sounds from their mouths that were taped.
What was strapped to their bodies...was clearly a time bomb!
The young man seemed very satisfied with his work. He squatted down and looked at it again, and said, "Ordinary clocks should be useless to you, right? Then let's play with these exciting things. For the next few days, I will tie clocks on you every day." I have set a [-]-hour time limit for this thing, if I don’t come after this time, if I don’t cancel the time limit for you, then you can think of the next thing, right?”
At that moment, he pulled the corners of his lips and smiled like a hellish devil.
"Wish you guys good luck."
Later Ning Yao notified Liu Yi of the outcome of the case by phone.
After she heard that Wu Hao was the real culprit who killed her mother, she didn't seem to react much. After a while of silence, she suddenly asked: "Uncle, aunt, is my mother not coming back?"
Ning Yao didn't know whether she was acting in a play or asking this question sincerely.
Afterwards, she told Ji Dongge about it.With a cigarette in his mouth, he kept flipping through the case materials with his fingers, without raising his head, he said: "Liu Yi knows the whole process of the case because she participated in it from beginning to end, but she probably doesn't know about Liu Mei and Ge Hong. What is the situation now. Maybe the murderer wants to talk to her, but she doesn't want to hear it."
"In other words, she just wanted Liu Mei to disappear from her life, and she didn't really want to kill Liu Mei."
"Correct."
Ning Yao leaned back, thought for a while, and said, "Is the purpose of the promise more simple? I remember that when we first went to his house to take notes, what he defended Xu Yiping was 'Mom is not dead, she Will definitely be back'."
Ji Dongge nodded: "Yes, Xu Nuo is young and can't control his emotions well. It is impossible for the murderer to hand over all the plans to him."
"But it's useless for us to think so much now."
Ning Yao beat his neck and glanced out the car window: "Liu Yi should have brought the news to Jiang Ping, right? I don't know if he will take action tonight."
"Yes." Ji Dongge's expression was calm, "Smart people know how to use everything available. I checked the weather, and today is a red warning for thunder and lightning."
Ning Yao didn't realize it at first, but then he turned his mind and suddenly realized.
"did you mean……"
Ji Dongge nodded: "Yes."
They waited from daytime to evening, and sure enough, the heavy rain mentioned in the weather forecast came.
Their car was hidden in an inconspicuous little corner, and there was constant lightning in the sky, and the trees in front of them were violently swayed by the strong wind.A few big thunders fell, and many cars in the parking space began to sound alarms, and the scene became a bit scary for a while.
It may be due to the weather that the various production crews closed work ahead of schedule.They waited for a while, and saw many people driving their cars down the mountain in the heavy rain.Not long after, there were only two cars left on the open space, one was an ordinary cargo van, and the other was an Audi covered in cloth.
Ning Yao looked at the time, it was 21:22.
When she was worried that they would return without success today, a figure suddenly broke into their sight.
Seen from a distance, the man was thin and tall, wearing an army green raincoat, holding a baseball bat in his hand, walking quietly towards the car like a ghost.
The next moment, he tore the cloth off the car violently, then raised the baseball bat in his hand, and slammed it on the car body!
Ning Yao was taken aback. As expected by Ji Dongge, the murderer immediately came to deal with the car after learning that Wu Hao had been convicted.
But because the car was tampered with by Wu Hao, he couldn't drive it away, so there was only one way left, which was to destroy the car.However, ordinary man-made sabotage will definitely be reported to the police after being discovered, and it will be difficult to describe him in the end, but if it is pretended to be a natural disaster, and combined with the early warning weather at the right time and place, then everything will be seamless.No one will check a car damaged by an unknown object in a storm, as long as the license plate is removed, and everything that can represent the characteristics of the car is taken away, this is an abandoned car that no one knows and no one claims !
The ending is predictable.
Seeing that the people over there smashed harder and harder, Ji Dongge took out the gun from his waist and opened the car door.
"It's time to close the net."
The police station's group moved very lightly. Coupled with the weather, he didn't notice until they surrounded the person who smashed the car.
Hao Keyai and Ma Xiaoliang raised their guns and shouted in the rain: "Police!"
The man froze for a moment, turned around mechanically, and revealed his face.
Sure enough, that person was Liu Yihe's tutor, Jiang Ping.
After taking people back to the police station, everyone was almost soaked.
But they are a group of big men, strong and strong, and there is nothing wrong with wet clothes.
It's Ning Yao...
In particular, the T-shirt on her body was wet, clinging to her skin, and the black underwear on her chest was faintly visible, making her originally bumpy figure even more sexy.
After Ji Dongge realized it, his face turned green, and 1 regretted letting her get out of the car and arrest people with them.So on the way back to the police station, he kept a sullen face.When he arrived at the police station and was about to get out of the car, he pinned her on the car and was not allowed to move. He got out of the car alone to get the towel and the spare clothes he left in the station, and after a lot of trouble, he put them on for her himself.
During the process, he never looked sideways, his expression was very upright and gentlemanly, without any ambiguity at all.But Ning Yao changed his clothes in front of him, but still felt very uncomfortable.
Fortunately, the dim light in the carriage made her somewhat embarrassed.
When they walked into the police station, the big guys saw Ning Yao's clothes and started whistling and booing.
Ma Xiaoliang took the lead, and said with a smile: "Sister Ning, as expected, Teacher Ji's clothes are still the same as before, and they are only suitable for you! Hahaha!"
Ning Yao's face became hot for a while, and he didn't pay much attention to the group of onlookers. He wiped his hair with a towel and walked towards the interrogation room.
Ji Dongge looked at the group of colleagues making trouble from behind, and for the first time, he didn't lose his temper.
With his hands in his pockets, he glanced at them lazily with his long and narrow eyes, with a slight smile on his lips.
"Are you tired of living?"
He was in a good mood at first glance, so his colleagues would not care about what he said, and continued to laugh.
But Ji Dongge didn't pay much attention to them, and hurried to chase Ning Yao.
Ning Yao entered the interrogation room two steps ahead of him, and saw Jiang Ping sitting on a chair in handcuffs with a numb face. When he saw her come in, he raised his eyelids.
"Officer, I just destroyed a famous car for private reasons, the big deal is to compensate for the price, so you won't have to work hard in the middle of the night to arrest me, right?"
Her face was not as relaxed as she was outside just now, her eyes were cold, and she sat opposite him, flipping through the documents in her hand.
"According to the information we got, Wu Hao said that the crime was committed on May [-]rd. We adjusted the surveillance at the entrance of the film and television city that day, and you showed up."
"Liu Yi stayed in the film and television city at that time. I went there to give her extra lessons. Is there any problem?" Jiang Ping replied slowly.
Ning Yao smiled: "Of course there is no problem with this, but we checked the surveillance again, and the two people who appeared in Liu Mei's car on May [-]th were not themselves! Our colleagues used the facial recognition system and quickly found out The specific information of those two people. But unfortunately, those two people seem to have gone abroad. We checked their accounts again, and got some interesting clues."
She pushed the information investigated by her colleagues to Jiang Ping, and said: "The two of you have received several remittances before and after, and the name of the remittance account is your father. And as far as we know, your father signed up with you a month ago. The name of seeing a doctor has disappeared, but we have checked all the hospitals in other provinces, and there are people with the same name and surname as your father, but it is not him!"
When she said this, waves began to appear on Jiang Ping's calm face.
He secretly clenched his fists and stared at Ning Yao: "So?"
She slapped the table and said harshly: "If you don't want the two children to be locked up in the interrogation room and interrogated by us, I advise you to tell the truth from now on."
Holding something in his hand, Hao Keai hurried towards the interrogation room.
Seeing that Ji Dongge was quietly standing outside the interrogation room watching, he couldn't help stepping forward.
"Boss, I'm back."
Ji Dongge nodded, glanced at the things in his hand: "Did you find it?"
Hao Keai said: "This kid has learned two tricks, he knows to hide important items in the water tank of the toilet, but he probably didn't expect that we policemen will not let go of even the cracks in the wall, how could it be possible for him to hide important items in the water tank? lied to."
Ji Dongge nodded, and walked into the interrogation room with the documents.
When he went in, Ning Yao and Jiang Ping were still deadlocked.
Jiang Ping was still holding on, no matter what Ning Yao said, he only replied: "If you want to say that I am related to the case, then show more direct evidence!"
When Ji Dongge came in, he heard him yelling these words, and sneered: "Here is the evidence." Then, Ji Dongge handed the things to Ning Yao, "This is what we found in his house."
When Jiang Ping heard this, his entire back became tense, and his eyes were fixed on the things in the bag.
Ning Yao opened the bag and took a look, pulling out a cold smile.
"Don't you want evidence? Here you are!" As she spoke, she slapped something in front of Jiang Ping's eyes.
That was nothing else, it was the license plate of Liu Mei's car that Wu Hao had buried!
"Didn't you admit that you had contacts with those two strangers and that you were involved in the case? Now explain why this license plate appeared in your house!"
Jiang Ping seemed to be drained of strength, and his tense state collapsed in an instant.He stared straight at the license plate and said after a while, "Did I do something wrong? I was right!"
Jiang Ping grew up under the shadow of his father's domestic violence. In the words of the Internet, he is a "filial son" who came out of the stick.
At that time, his parents had just divorced. He experienced a small beating every three days and a severe beating every five days. This kind of life lasted almost until he graduated from high school.Later, although his experience of being beaten was less, it was not completely absent. In his father's words - it is only natural for me to beat my son.
No one cares about how he survived those days, no one thinks whether he will have any psychological problems, in short, in the eyes of most relatives, the domestic violence that did not kill him is just a means of educating their children That's all.
However, at that time, the rebellious factor in his bones was already very strong.He wanted to fight back several times when he was beaten, but finally held back.
He couldn't do anything, and he couldn't bear to treat his father the way his father treated him.
Until he met Xu Nuo and Liu Yi, met a child who had the same experience as him, and even encountered a child worse than him, he began to waver.
At first, he just kept comforting the two children, because in their eyes, parents are still worth relying on.Despite their physical or mental abuse, their parents are still their parents, the people they most want to trust and rely on in this world.
He kept persuading Liu Mei and Ge Hong from the perspective of a bystander, and kept looking for reasons for Liu Mei and Ge Hong, until one day...
It was raining heavily that day, and he rushed to Liu Yi's house for class in his father's taxi.On the road, he met Liu Mei and Ge Hong who were waiting for the bus. He kindly asked them to get on the bus and go back together, and introduced them to his father.
Several middle-aged people chatted and chatted, and they talked about the topic of educating children.
His father took the lead, telling how he beat him and how he made him better.Ge Hong and Liu Mei seemed to have found a confidant, their eyes lit up when they said this.
He still remembers what Ge Hong said at the time: "Children have to be beaten, and the harder they are beaten, the more he can remember. If you don't beat, you can't become a talent!"
His father kept nodding: "Yes, yes, only dutiful sons are born under the stick. Only by being beaten can they not make mistakes."
"And occasionally we need to vent our anger when we encounter something. We have to pay for beating outsiders, but our children are fine. Children don't hold grudges, and they forget after beating." Liu Mei interrupted suddenly, "But In fact, it’s okay not to fight. Isn’t it said that domestic violence is not allowed? We can use cold violence against the cub. As long as my family makes a mistake, I will lock her in an old house that cannot be lived for several days. If there is any rebellious psychology, I dare not make mistakes."
The way they were discussing at the time looked like a demon in human skin.
What made Jiang Ping tremble the most was that they had no remorse, and even felt that domestic violence was right and that child abuse was their right.
At that moment, his whole body exploded.
Speaking of this, Jiang Ping paused for a moment, and suddenly smiled: "After that, I asked the two children insincerely, if their parents disappeared, would they feel uncomfortable? Guess what they said?"
Xu Nuo thought about it carefully, and replied: "It will be uncomfortable, because those are mom and dad."
Jiang Ping asked, "They keep beating and mistreating you, and you don't blame them?"
Xu Nuo's immature face was full of sadness: "I don't blame them, maybe it's because I didn't do well and I don't deserve their love."
At that moment, Jiang Ping was so uncomfortable that he was about to suffocate.Xu Nuo is just a child of seven or eight years old. Children of the same age who grew up in a healthy family will certainly not be as sensitive and inferior as him.
Later he asked Liu Yi the same question, and the answer he got was: "Disappearing...is it disappearing from my life forever?"
Jiang Ping nodded.
Liu Yi tentatively asked: "Then will they be in pain? I don't want to live with them anymore, but I don't want them to be in pain either."
When Jiang Ping said this, his face was full of sarcasm: "Did you hear that? This is the difference between children and adults! Children's thoughts are always clean and kind! Those high-sounding adults are simply incomparable! No matter how they are hurt, no matter how It’s uncomfortable, and I never thought of treating people who hurt them in the same way!”
The expression on Ning Yao's face became more and more serious: "So what? You just go and instigate the two children to commit crimes with you?"
"It's none of their business. The promise was made by me. He thought that my mother went abroad to study, and when she came back, she would know how to communicate in other ways and would not beat him again. In his consciousness, my mother just went out If you go far away, you will come back sooner or later. And Liu Yi..."
When Liu Yi went to look for him, it seemed that Liu Mei had locked him up for a few more days.Her whole mental state was on the verge of collapse. After finding Jiang Ping, she kept crying, and hiccupped while crying at the end, saying: "Teacher, you said last time that both parents disappeared... can it be done now? I I don’t want to be their daughter anymore, I’m so tired! If this continues, I might die!”
Later, after Jiang Ping coaxed her for a long time, he learned intermittently from her the reason for the punishment, and indirectly learned about the drug business of Liu Mei and Ge Hong, and Wu Hao's desire to get rid of Liu Mei. thing.
In order to find out the truth of the matter, he deliberately placed recording pens in the homes of the two families, and replaced them with new ones every day when he went to make up classes. After doing this for more than ten days, he finally recorded some useful things.
Wu Hao discussed with Xu Yiping and wanted to attack Liu Mei and Ge Hong.
Later, he thought about how to use Wu Hao without anyone noticing, so Wu Hao found a way to kill people from Liu Yi's extracurricular books.In order to prevent Wu Hao from taking the bait, he even asked Liu Yi to repeatedly tell Wu Hao how beautiful the book was and how wonderful the crime methods in it were.
Fortunately, at that time, Wu Hao was in a state of rushing to the doctor. He was too eager to get rid of Liu Mei, and suddenly found a way. He didn't think much about it, and followed the plan.
The crime methods in that book are almost ready-made, Wu Hao just needs to follow suit, the only thing he needs to think about is how to make an alibi.
It just so happened that Liu Mei had been working with drug dealers these days and had no time to take care of Liu Yi, so she entrusted her to Wu Hao.Presumably Wu Hao was also afraid that Liu Mei would find out something, so he didn't reject Liu Yi as a fool.
After Jiang Ping learned of these things, he asked Liu Yi to carefully observe Wu Hao's every move. Later, he learned that Wu Hao suddenly wanted to find a photographer to make a documentary about the crew, and that he asked Liu Mei to change the car on May [-]th. Then I understood what he wanted to do.
So Jiang Ping used the most stupid but also the easiest method to succeed - to adjust the time.
He asked Liu Yi to adjust the time of Wu Hao's mobile phone, a full day earlier, so what Wu Hao should do on May [-]th suddenly moved forward to May [-]rd, but Wu Hao was kept in the dark and knew nothing about it. .
On the day of the incident, he took advantage of Liu Mei and Ge Hong's trust in Liu Yi, and took them to a remote location in the film and television city.Then he took the sedative he bought online and stabbed them into the necks of the two, and then found a surveillance corner, got the two unconscious people into his car, and quietly led them down the mountain.Afterwards, he asked Liu Yi to monitor Wu Hao, and when he learned that Wu Hao had buried the license plate under a tree, he dug it out quietly, rented another car of the same model the next day, and replaced the license plate , hired two people to pretend to be Ge Hong and Liu Mei, and drove around at the same time to show off.
Jiang Ping's eyes were a little dim, as if giving up: "The general course of the matter is like this, and the rest...you should have deduced it all, right?"
Ning Yao gritted her teeth tightly, unable to explain what she was feeling in her heart. After a long while, she asked, "Are they still alive?"
The voice fell for a long time, but they didn't hear Jiang Ping's answer.
After a while, he suddenly answered the question: "Did you say I did something wrong?"
Ning Yao said, "You broke the law."
"So you think I'm wrong?" Jiang Ping sighed softly, "I just want to take my two children to save myself."
"The law represents restraint, and represents the morality of most people! So-called self-help without restraint and morality is a crime no matter how high-sounding the reason is!"
As if he didn't hear Ning Yao's words, his eyes drooped slightly out of focus, and his voice was much softer than before: "From childhood to adulthood, the most words I've heard after being beaten are..."
"Your dad and I were beaten up in the same way. Most people are like this, so you don't have to feel dissatisfied or wrong."
Jiang Ping paused, raised his eyes and looked at Ning Yao quietly: "So, is the thing that most people have experienced really correct? Can it be imitated all the time?"
Ning Yao felt very uncomfortable and didn't want to answer, so he continued to ask: "What you need to answer now is, are they still alive?"
Jiang Ping looked at his watch and said, "They should still be alive now, but not necessarily in a few 10 minutes."
Her expression froze, she looked at him solemnly, and said sharply, "What do you mean?"
"I strapped a bomb on them, which lasts for twelve hours. To scare them, I reset the time every day before the bomb is about to explode." Jiang Ping curled his lips, "The next explosion time is exactly twelve o'clock in the middle of the night. 43 minutes to now."
After hearing the location given by Jiang Ping, everyone was dispatched one after another.Not only that, they also contacted the EOD team as soon as possible, told them the specific situation, and told them to send people to the scene as soon as possible.On the way to the scene, Ma Xiaoliang was driving, and Ji Dongge and Ning Yao sat in the back seat.
Ma Xiaoliang kept talking about Jiang Ping's anti-social personality and being very dangerous, but no one paid any attention to him after mumbling for a long time.He quietly glanced at the rearview mirror, and when he found that Ning Yao was looking out the window motionlessly, while Ji Dongge was watching her quietly, he shut his mouth in good time.
The carriage returned to calm, but the two people in the back row didn't seem to notice this change.
Ning Yao looked out of the car window, his eyes were empty, as if he was looking at something, but he didn't seem to see anything at all.
In fact, her abnormality Ji Dongge understood that it was nothing more than hearing about someone with a bomb strapped to her body, which reminded her of what happened back then.
Several times he wanted to open his mouth to say something to her, but finally gave up.He said too many comforting words, but she didn't listen at all.
Looking at Ning Yao's profile hidden in the dark night, Ji Dongge wondered if there should be another way to let her come out.
The place where Jiangping Tibetans live is not far from the urban area. They drove there in more than 40 minutes. After parking for a few seconds, a strange car stopped in front of them smoothly.
Three EOD officers in EOD suits got out of the car, all of them wearing helmets, as if they were ready.
Ji Dongge looked at the three people and nodded, "Thank you for your hard work."
Several people didn't talk much, only the leader nodded, signaling him to rest assured, and then they walked quickly towards the house.
They passed by Ji Dongge, and when the last EOD officer passed him by, he felt strangely familiar for no reason.
He looked at the back of the last person, narrowing his narrow eyes slightly.
Ning Yao at the side raised his wrist to look at the time on his watch, it was still 3 minutes away from midnight.
She didn't know much about the EOD process, and wondered whether the EOD team could safely rescue the victim within 3 minutes.Her mind is very messy now, sometimes it is the scene in front of her, and sometimes flashes many things that happened back then, interspersed back and forth to stimulate her nerves.
She always felt that she had returned to the past for a moment, and she could only stand at the same place at a loss, feeling fear and panic with cold hands and feet.
The right hand was suddenly held by someone, and the dry warmth came down the palm. She looked up and found that Ji Dongge was standing beside her at some point.
He didn't speak, and he didn't even cast his eyes on her, he just stood beside her quietly, looking into the distance.
Ning Yao couldn't tell what it was like in his heart, but a thought inexplicably popped up in his mind - if he was by his side when that incident happened back then, would everything be different?
But she didn't have time to think about it, because the remaining person from the EOD team suddenly walked up to them.
"We don't know what's going on inside yet, but according to the time you provided, it's only about a minute before the bomb explodes. For safety's sake, retreat to a position 1 meters away."
Before Ji Dongge could speak, Ning Yao spoke first: "I won't leave."
Ji Dongge looked down at her, but said nothing.The person from the EOD team looked very embarrassed, hesitant to speak.
In the end, it was Ji Dongge who said: "Now we are about ten meters away from the house. Even if the bomb explodes accidentally, we will be affected by the air current at most, and our lives will not be in danger. Don't worry."
When the EOD team heard what he said, they didn't say anything more.
In the following time, almost everyone was looking at the watch with bated breath, especially Ning Yao, who raised his wrist and did not move, his eyes seemed to be nailed to the second hand of the watch.
When it was ten seconds before twelve o'clock, she looked up at the door of the house over there, where it was quiet and dull, and there was no movement at all.
The seconds on the watch kept going, nine, eight, seven, six, five, four...
When the pointer turned to the third from the bottom, her arm was suddenly pulled, and she turned around, her face was pressed into a firm and warm chest.
At that moment, the world seemed to be quiet. She couldn't hear the sound of the night wind blowing the leaves. The sound of the infinitely magnified second hand "tick-tick-tick" suddenly disappeared, leaving only the sound of the heart beating regularly in his chest. A moment, a moment, like the most effective sedative in the world, gradually calmed down her original fear and anxiety.
She gently closed her eyes, leaned against his arms, and held her breath waiting for the unknown result in the distance.
The second "click" pointed to the middle position, and everyone forgot to breathe at this moment, staring at the room in the distance.
However, everything that was expected did not happen, and the room was still silent, without any sound.
Everyone looked surprised, and Ning Yao also stood up straight, looking over in disbelief.
At this time, several EOD personnel walked out slowly with a victim each. Everyone was relieved when they saw that there was no bomb on the victim.
One of the EOD personnel approached them first, and said to them through the helmet: "Don't worry, the bombs on the victims are all fake."
As soon as these words came out, everyone's heart was completely let go.The EOD officer who stayed outside on standby laughed and scolded, "Are you all doing well? It took so long to dismantle the fake bomb?"
Another EOD officer took off his helmet and replied calmly: "The model is too realistic, and the time is urgent. We don't have the time to study whether the bomb is true or not. All we think about is which thread to cut."
The person who spoke was a tall young man with a youthful look in his eyes.Ji Dongge looked at him, and the scene outside the police academy that day jumped out of his mind almost instantly.
He was sure that the person in front of him was the same as the person that day.
And the strange sense of familiarity that he inexplicably appeared that day struck again now.
Ji Dongge looked at him quietly without making a sound.
Ning Yao, who was next to her, knew nothing about all this. Now she was full of the good news that the victim was safe and sound, and the so-called time bomb did not explode.
Her hanging heart let go, and the gloom in her chest seemed to dissipate in an instant.
She walked up to the young EOD officer first, stretched out her hand and said, "Thank you."
The EOD officer was stunned, and after a brief hesitation, he slowly raised his head to look at her.
His eyes were as deep as the sea, and the moment he looked at her, it seemed that countless lights burst out from the sea.In less than a second, he smiled as usual.
He smiled widely, his smiling eyes were full of light, and he put his gloved hand on her palm: "Serving the people and helping the seniors relieve their worries is what we should do, and it's not hard work at all."
Ning Yao smiled, didn't seem to care too much about what he said, and then thanked the other two EOD personnel.
And Ji Dongge took in all this with deep eyes.
