Crime Hunt Files: Bloody Angel

"Do not."

Standing in front of the newspaper rack, Bai Ji'an picked up last month's newspaper and flipped through it quickly. In the middle, he suddenly stopped and pulled out the front page of the 13th and handed it to Catharina.

"his son."

Catharina's eyes widened, confused.

The person in the photo is Thomas, the founder of the charity started two years ago.

"What are you going to do? His son is not a wanderer that no one cares about! Once something happens, with his father's current status and strength, he will never give up!"

Handing over another newspaper, Bai Ji'an said: "If you know him carefully, you will know that there have been rumors among the people that Thomas is engaged in charity work on the surface but is engaged in illegal money-making behind the scenes, and that he is cynical and often plays with boys and girls. The son is very controversial."

"But even more rumors have no effect on Thomas. There are more powerful people protecting him."

"But as far as I know, his son is dead."

"What?!" Catharina said in shock: "How could it be?"

She reads the newspaper every day. Once there is news, she cannot miss it.

"I was lucky enough to see the murderer."

"...The murderer." After not seeing anyone for four days, Catharina said, "You went to Oxford."

Bai Ji'an nodded: "I think wool can't always be gathered on a sheep, so I drove to Oxford. In the middle of the night the next day, I accidentally saw a woman over fifty years old carrying a group of people in a small car. A large cowhide bag headed towards the woods."

"Did you see it? The body."

"No. But I saw her expression and movements clearly. After that, I briefly investigated the woman's origins and found that something big had happened to her family recently. Her 16-year-old son attempted suicide by hanging at home and is now in the intensive care unit."

"Hang yourself...you mean, her son was bullied by Thomas' son?"

"The rumors in the boys' school are like this. Later facts also proved that the boy who is still in the hospital was indeed molested by Thomas's son for a long time."

Understanding the cause and effect, Catharina suddenly became excited: "So you want to bring the body back, so that not only can we get a new heart, but the local police will probably not be able to convict the woman because they can't find the body of Thomas' son!"

"if everything goes well."

That was Catharina's most impressive experience.

Not only because this was the first corpse she had touched with her own hands, but also because she didn't feel any guilt when facing a dead scumbag.

Even when Bai Ji'an taught her how to go around the ribs and grab the heart underneath, she felt an inexplicable sense of relief.

She recalled the alley where she first met Bai Ji'an. Eight bastards blocked her into a dead end and tried to line up to violate her.

That boy who was only 16 years old, if someone had saved him at that time...

Catharina grabbed the slippery organ and pulled it out. Catharina trembled with complicated emotions.

She kept wandering between "did it" and "no turning back."

Three days later, she read in the newspaper that Thomas' son had disappeared.

With just a quick glance, she folded the newspaper and put it on the tray as usual, and brought it up to the second floor along with Bai Ji'an's breakfast.

In the following days, she would either wait for news about Bai Ji'an's actions or practice various practical skills at home.

One day, the two of them were walking along the Thames River when they came across three children chasing each other.

The boy running at the back had a key hanging outside his coat pocket. It seemed that the key chain at the other end was still in his pocket, so the key had not fallen off.

Catharina reached out her hand playfully and helped the boy put the keys hanging outside back into his pocket as soon as they brushed shoulders.

Bai Ji'an's eyes lit up at the flash of movement, and he was immediately inspired.

"What? You want me to learn to steal?"

"It's okay if you insist on calling me that."

"What else? Getting what you want from others is not stealing."

"The skills are very strong, and it is not easy to do. After stealing something, you often have to move the stolen goods as quickly as possible. If there are no companions around..." Taking advantage of Catharina's personality, Bai Ji'an added: "If you don't want to, forget it. It would be very ugly if discovered.”

Frowning her eyebrows, Catharina was a little dissatisfied: "How difficult can it be?"

At first, she practiced with Bai Ji'an at home, taking advantage of the moment they passed each other to take away the keys, wallet, mobile phone and other valuables from his pockets, and then replaced them with something of the same weight to prevent the victim from being noticed immediately.

After waiting for the technology to mature, he actually took her directly to the street and asked her to follow the prompts in the earphones to steal the designated target. After success, he took a photo and returned it intact.

As long as you are not discovered in the middle, you will pass.

After a few thrilling days, Catharina felt that her calves were cramping.

I finally made the cooked meals, but I didn’t know what happened during dinner.

Bai Ji'an was in a good mood.

No, it's exceptionally good.

It was the only time in the year since they had known each other that she had seen him unable to control his joy.

Whether he is eating or watching TV, the corners of his lips are always curled up.

Asked him what was wrong, he was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said: "He is not married."

"Who?"

Shaking his head, Bai Ji'an drank a spoonful of white porridge: "Private matters have nothing to do with our plan."

Since that day, at 10 o'clock every morning, she could hear Bai Ji'an talking to someone in the bedroom through the door.

Sometimes it only takes a few minutes; sometimes it can last for an hour or two.

The strangest thing is that at the end of every call, the other party mentions it.

Bai Ji'an, who had always been in the dominant position, let the other party control him at will. After hanging up the phone, he would lie on the bed and sigh, mumbling to himself.

"Why are you working overtime again?"

"The rest time is so short. Isn't it too tiring?"

"I forgot to ask him if he had a good lunch."

"It's Christmas Eve in a few days. Do you want to remind him to eat apples? Do you want to ask him how he spends Christmas?"

"Forget it, it's too obvious."

……

All kinds of abnormalities almost shocked Catharina's jaw.

work overtime?

What kind of extra shift does it take at 10 a.m.?

Is the other party not in the UK and there is a time difference?

Does Bai Ji'an have a lover? !

Why has she never heard of it for so long?

It’s not like you’re going to kill anyone when you fall in love, it’s too tightly covered!

boom!

The door opens.

Bai Ji'an lowered his eyes and looked at Catharina who was eavesdropping and said calmly: "Prepare the crisper box in the refrigerator and set off tonight."

"Where?"

"Edinburgh."
