Chapter 11: A Cruel Death
Time will always make people more or less mature, just like me, if others didn't even listen to the explanation in front of me before, I slapped the table and scolded my mother, I will definitely be angry immediately, but this time I am very calm, pour myself another cup of tea, and then drink it slowly, I understand very well what Zhao Hong said, it is not the key at all, the key is the middle-aged man.
He looked at me for a long time before saying, "Chen Chengyi, it stands to reason that we really have no reason to force it, because you don't belong to our department, and you are only a person on record in that department, and you have the right to refuse." Of course, we can also use a certain amount of power, but in this case, if you don't do your best, no one can do anything about you, right? ”
I was silent, and when I couldn't figure out what medicine was sold in other people's gourds, it was better to say less.
Sure enough, the middle-aged man didn't say this to give up, but continued: "Chen Chengyi, we won't investigate anything about you, let alone threaten you anything, it's stupid to threaten a cultivator, not to mention your master, your lineage has merit to the country, and we can't do this, I just express a meaning, why do you make money, I won't care." If I say, this case won't delay you much, give me a chance to make money, will you do it? ”
"What do you mean?" I raised my eyebrows slightly, to be honest, I still feel guilty about refusing this matter in my heart, no matter who it is, if the conditions allow, if you can do something positive for the society, you must be willing, so the middle-aged man said this, I was tempted.
Zhao Hong snorted, obviously he had a very bad impression of me, but I didn't bother to explain, I just listened to the middle-aged man continue.
"Let's put it this way, in fact, when it comes to connections, you cultivators who are active in the civil society are definitely not as good as the official departments. With us standing behind you to make a few orders, whether it is the price or the degree of trust, it is different, right? In fact, overseas Chinese, or in Hong Kong or something, have a certain degree of wealth, and there are still a lot of contacts with departments, what do you think? "Some things can't be said explicitly, and what the middle-aged man said is very vague.
But I still understood what he meant, and I smiled and said, "If I cooperate with you this time, will you introduce me to business?" ”
"Yes, introduce business! You can collect money in the name of the department, as long as you solve the problem, what do you think? The middle-aged man smiled too, like a fox.
"Why did you find me?" I pinched my chin and asked, but I still didn't rush to agree, because it was quite strange to find me.
"Haha, you're fighting two battles in the ghost city, do you think there's no news coming out? I think that among the younger generation, you can be said to be the one who is absolutely at the top of the means, and Lao Li Yimai, who doesn't know that the secret method is excellent? What's more, you and your master have participated in several actions that are not small, and they can also be said to be experienced. If you want to find the younger generation, who are you looking for? The middle-aged man said that the reason was very good.
But I was still slightly shocked in my heart, the impact of the two wars in the ghost market is so great? Even the people in the secret department know about it? At that time, I just thought that I couldn't lose the face of our vein, but I am still relatively 'withdrawn' in my bones, I hate to be lively, I like to live a dull and quiet life, and it seems that I will have to be a little more low-key in the future.
I thought so, but the reason given to me by the middle-aged man was still not enough, and I smiled and asked, "Even so, who in the older generation is not better than me?" Besides, they are in the department, and it is only natural that you cooperate. You don't have enough reasons! ”
"What a little fox." The middle-aged man shook his head and laughed.
"Hey, when I was young, I was cheated a lot by my master, and later, I found out that I was a life riddled with everything, and I didn't dare to be careless?" I took a sip of tea and said lightly.
"Forget it, I won't spare the bend, this is still related to the case we want to cooperate with, because this case is vaguely involved in some international forces behind it, as well as some underground and shady cultivator forces in China. You know, you can't be clean everywhere in a country, and in some ways, you have to maintain a delicate balance to gain strength, and then you can strike hard and put out something in one fell swoop, you know? "This middle-aged man deserves to be an official, he doesn't talk about detours, he still talks around the corners, which contains too much political wisdom.
However, of course I understood what I meant, and I said, "So, it's hard for the department to come forward, right?" Especially the department where my master is located! After all, before the time to tear your face, you still have to maintain 'peace', at least don't interfere in the lives of ordinary people, right? So, I guessed correctly, this Zhao Hong is also a new face, right? ”
"That's right, that's what it means." The middle-aged man gave an appreciative look, and then said to me: "Zhao Hong, a newcomer to the department, is familiar with hand-to-hand combat, firearms, driving, and even computer networks, and has a certain amount of reconnaissance ability, he is a talent, and he is also the most suitable person for this mission." ”
"As for me, at least the people in the circle know that I'm not working for the country, that I don't belong to that department, right? Because the people in the department won't participate in the ghost market, and even if they do, they don't dare to be high-profile, let alone play two games like me. With these face-saving efforts, this case is my private behavior with Zhao Hong, isn't it? I laughed.
The middle-aged man smiled, didn't speak, knocked his hand on his thigh, took the briefcase, took out a stack of materials, and said, "Look at the information." ”
He's still quite strong, and the meaning of handing over the information is that this matter is decided!
But I finally took the information handed over by Zhao Hong, and while sighing that I was taking care of things again, I thought that if it wasn't for the righteousness, I would regret it.
However, this is just self-comfort, where is there room for me to regret it?
There is a lot of information, I can't look at it carefully for a while, I just flipped through it casually, but from the moment I saw the first photo, my brow furrowed, the first photo was a woman who died, her face was distorted to a terrifying degree, and the cause of death mentioned below was 'myocardial infarction'.
The second photo is of a man, the body may not be called the body, because it was suddenly crushed from a high altitude by a heavy object, you can imagine how terrible the corpse is? The cause of death was, of course, an accident.
The third, the fourth
All kinds of coincidences and suicides, when it came to the latter one, there was finally a so-called murder, a woman was in a pool of blood, I don't know how many knives were cut, that face, that body was already miserable, the blood was almost all over the ground, and next to her was a man, the man also fell in a pool of blood, the knife on his body was not less than that of a woman, and even a few cuts were exaggerated to the point that there was no flesh at all.
Holding back the discomfort in my heart, I pointed to the block next to the photo and asked, "What is this?" ”
"It's a piece of meat, and the composition of these pieces of meat includes normal muscle tissue, but also half of the tongue, and a broken eyeball." This time it was Zhao Hong who answered me.
"So cruel?" I haven't had time to see the results of the investigation into this case.
Of course, this is the so-called finding!
"It's not cruelty, you know the case? This woman was hacked to death by this man, and she was slashed more than seventy times, and she was about to be cut into a rag doll! But do you think this is cold-blooded and cruel? No! In fact, this man committed suicide after cutting this woman, but have you ever seen such a suicide? It's not that he ended himself quickly, but he tortured himself to death like crazy, and you don't have to doubt that those pieces of flesh, including eyeballs and tongues, belong to that man. Zhao Hong explained to me.
I gasped, this fear was beyond the scope of normal human behavior, and I put down the information and pondered.
"What's the key point? It's this couple who is very affectionate, and after the fact, we visited and investigated, and there was no cheating between them, and the couple's emotional discord happened, which is the real kind of affection, not the kind of face kung fu! I don't even have a motive to kill, is it suddenly crazy? I think you're a Taoist, and you know better than I do. Zhao Hong looked at me and said seriously.
"It's very unlikely that you'll go crazy all of a sudden! It's just that a madman is not a guy who doesn't have pain, and pain is an instinctive self-preservation! "I'll put it simply.
"Yes, that's right." Zhao Hong said: "Do you know? The photos of the scene of this case are absolutely top secret, such a cruel death and the truth will scare the surrounding people, fortunately, the reporter just saw the blood flowing out of the crack in the door and reported the crime, but what about it"
Speaking of this, Zhao Hong paused for a moment, and then said: "However, this crime scene scared a young policeman into tears, and scared an old policeman with more than ten years of work experience to do psychological counseling for a long time. At that time, the case was treated as an ordinary criminal case. ”
"What's so special about it?" I believe Zhao Hong's words, but I know that there is a follow-up to this case, and these materials are collected and sorted together, and they must be related, but I can't even figure out what this will do!
