The suitcase hit the ground with a loud noise, and also raised a lot of dust.

Jiang Yan covered her mouth and nose and squinted her eyes. Something seemed to have rolled out of the suitcase. A naked person was wrapped in transparent tape and curled up on the ground motionless.

This is a corpse.

Jiang Yan took a quick look and immediately looked away, ready to take out her cell phone to call the police.

"Ahhh!" As the dust and fog dispersed, the thief saw what was in front of him and stepped back in fear, "This! This, this is, a person!"

It’s over, it’s over, a murder case has occurred. He looked around and prepared to escape from this place of trouble.

Jiang Yan immediately stopped him, "Don't leave, if you leave you'll be the murderer!"

"Hey, hey, hey, stop talking nonsense! Don't you know if I'm the murderer?!"

The thief was about to ignore her and took two steps back, ready to run away, when he heard another sentence from behind him, "There are your fingerprints on the suitcase. Can you guess if there are other people's fingerprints besides yours?"

He was completely at a loss now. He squatted down and scratched his head. "Then what do you say we should do? Is there any way to get rid of this fingerprint?"

Jiang Yan did not answer him. She took a breath and took out her phone to take a picture of the suitcase. After taking the picture, she moved closer to the body and there was a subtle tremor in her voice. "From the body shape and features, it seems to be a female. Call the police immediately."

"I can't call the police. What would I do if I did?"

"You can get a lighter sentence for the theft if you report it to the police. Don't you know which is more serious, murder or theft? Don't worry, you will be released after a few months at most."

The man in front of him was still hesitating, but Jiang Yan lost his patience, "If you don't call the police, I'm going to take the credit."

After weighing the pros and cons, the thief decided to compromise. After calling the police, in order to protect the crime scene, the two squatted aside and chatted. After all, there was a corpse in front of them, and the whole alley was deserted. If they didn't say something, the atmosphere would turn into a horror and supernatural script.

"Why be a thief?"

"No Money."

"You can't find a job if you don't have money? Isn't it easy for a grown man to support himself?"

"I'm just stupid and have no ambition, but today is the first time I've gone out to steal someone's things. When the police come, you have to help me put in a good word!"

"It all depends on your performance. Remember to behave yourself when you get out."

After Shen Xunzhi lost the person, he walked through two alleys before he got back on track. Looking at the two people in front of him chatting like friends, at that moment, Shen Xunzhi thought that Jiang Yan had influenced a thief.

When Jiang Yan heard the footsteps, he immediately picked up the wooden stick beside him and blocked the suitcase. Zhao Ke's words on the phone were very serious. For such a vicious murder case, the police could not send only one person, so the only one who came here at this moment could be...

"Is it you?" The person who came was dressed exactly the same as the person I met at noon.

Shen Xunzhi knew she had misunderstood from her attitude. He took off his mask and explained, "I saw you chasing the thief alone, so I wanted to help."

When Jiang Yan saw his face, her first thought was, he is indeed a handsome guy. But she still didn't believe what he said, and she didn't put down the stick in her hand.

Shen Xunzhi simply took off his hat and stood still calmly to let her see enough.

Jiang Yan looked at the face, about 23 or 24 years old, about 1.8 meters tall. The black vertical hair covered three-quarters of his forehead, but the deep and cold eyebrows were still clearly visible. His eyes were full of calmness. The sleeves of his shirt were slightly rolled up, and the collar was a little messy. He really looked like he was running over in a hurry.

Zhao Ke, who was standing by, suddenly shouted excitedly, "Hey, you, aren't you the movie star? My girl from my hometown likes you so much. When she heard that you had retired, she cried for two days and two nights!"

Jiang Yan turned around and frowned, "He's a star?"

"Yes, he was the youngest actor at the age of 22. Unfortunately, he disappeared after winning the award." Zhao Ke covered her mouth and whispered in her ear, "But there are rumors that he retired from the entertainment industry and got married because he got a girl pregnant and her parents threatened to commit suicide."

Shen Xunzhi raised his lips, "People also said that I don't have much time left, so I retired and went abroad to treat my illness. Jiang Yan, you are also a star, you should know whether these rumors are true or false."

During the time when Shen Xunzhi was acting, many people's interests were disturbed. Those people could not touch him when he was at the peak of his career, so after he retired from the circle, they bought articles to blacken him. However, the fighting power of his fans is still unmatched, so the rumors did not spread for too long.

If he had not left the entertainment industry, Xiao Ting would probably have no place to stand until now.

But Jiang Yan was wondering in her heart that whether it was true or false had nothing to do with her, whether you were dying or married.

"So you are also a star. I was wondering why you are so good-looking."

Jiang Yan ignored Zhao Ke's words, "Since you know who I am, then what is your purpose in coming to help me?"

She stared at Shen Xunzhi suspiciously. It was not uncommon to see a man who appeared handsome and rich but was actually a perverted murderer.

Shen Xunzhi was somewhat helpless as he was guarded against like this for the first time. He explained, "Your mother...was my teacher."

"what is that?"

Shen Xunzhi was tall and his attention was previously on Jiang Yan, but only now did he notice the...corpse behind her.

His brows suddenly knitted together, and he immediately understood the situation. He turned around and made a phone call, then said to the two of them, "My cousin is a criminal investigator. I have already explained the situation to him, and he will be here soon."

Zhao Ke didn't want to be caught with both hands, and said dissatisfiedly, "Another policeman has to come, but we have already called the police!"

"It's not as simple as you think. This case is very important. It's the second one in Yecheng."

Jiang Yan and Zhao Ke looked at each other and said, "Tell me more."

"I guess you didn't mention the suitcase when you reported the case. Two months ago, a body exactly like the one in the woods was found. In order not to cause panic among the local population, the person who reported the case at that time has been silenced. My cousin is in charge of this case, but according to him, there has been no progress for the time being."

Indeed, Zhao Ke only said that there was a female corpse in the alley. Since there was a precedent, the original department must continue to be responsible.

"Can you rest assured now?" Shen Xunzhi looked very confused, "But I want to know, how on earth do I look like a bad guy?"

Jiang Yan only believed half of his words. She looked up at the sky and said, "I never said you look like a bad person."

Lie! Shen Xunzhi felt that if Jiang Yan had to choose between him and the thief, she would probably trust the thief more. Since he was so untrustworthy, in order to give her enough sense of security, Shen Xunzhi took two steps back, put one hand in his pocket and leaned against the wall, while holding his phone in the other hand to handle official business.

The alley began to fall silent. Apart from the crows flying by and the breathing of the three people, there was no other sound.

Jiang Yan also had many doubts in her heart. She tilted her head and thought for a while, but still couldn't grasp any information about the character of Shen Xunzhi.

She had no choice but to take out her cell phone, and sure enough, there was nothing that could not be found in the Internet age.
