The first rays of sunlight in the morning penetrated the mist near the S City Station, bringing a subtle warmth to the place that had experienced the horrific explosion last night. Xu Youran and Situ Han stood side by side outside the cordon, their eyes showing both determination for the unknown and awe for the upcoming challenges.

"We have to start from the basics. Every piece of debris, every footprint may be the key to uncovering the truth." Xu Youran said as he put on gloves and stepped into the scene that still emitted a pungent smell of gunpowder.

Situ Han followed closely behind, his eyes as sharp as a hawk, not missing any tiny clues. In the ruins, they found an unusual depression, which seemed to be the trace of some heavy object falling to the ground. By comparing the scattered metal fragments around, they speculated that this was the location where the explosives were placed.

"Look here. The shape and distribution of these fragments indicate that the explosives were carefully arranged." Xu Youran picked up an irregularly shaped piece of metal and handed it to Situ Han. "Also, look at the marks on it. They are not traces of ordinary industrial products. They are more like those left by some specific tool."

Situ Han took the fragment, examined it carefully, and nodded in agreement: "This is indeed a breakthrough. We need to find out what tools on the market can leave such traces."

Meanwhile, the S City police technical staff were busy mapping the scene and taking samples. Officer Zhang came over and said to the two men, "We have compiled a preliminary report of the scene. In addition, we found some unburned fabric fibers that looked like part of a piece of clothing. We are conducting further tests."

As the on-site investigation deepened, Xu Youran and Situ Han also began to question the victims and their families, as well as the witnesses from last night. In the hospital ward, they saw the young female ticket seller, her face was pale, and her eyes were full of fear.

"Can you describe in more detail the appearance of the man in the black windbreaker?" Xu Youran asked gently.

The female ticket seller recalled with a trembling voice: "He was very tall, wearing a peaked cap that covered most of his face. But I could feel that his eyes were very cold, like... like staring at people like a snake. He moved very quickly, too, and disappeared in the blink of an eye."

Xu Youran nodded and wrote down the information. Then, they came to another ward where a passenger who was injured in the explosion lived. Although he did not see the man in the black windbreaker directly, he provided another key clue: "I was buying a ticket when I heard a loud noise and then I knew nothing. But I remember that a few minutes before the explosion, a man in black was arguing with an old woman outside the ticket office and seemed to be looking for something."

This clue made Xu Youran and Situ Han's eyes light up. They immediately contacted the old woman, and through her description, they learned that the man seemed to be looking for an old photo or letter or something, and was extremely excited.

With these clues, Xu Youran and Situ Han began an intense pursuit. They retrieved all the surveillance videos around the station and finally captured the figure of the man in the black windbreaker in a hidden corner. He was wearing a hat and a mask, which covered him tightly, but his walking posture and gait revealed a unique rhythm.

By comparing the city's surveillance system and asking passers-by, they tracked the trail all the way to an abandoned warehouse on the outskirts of the city. However, when they arrived at the warehouse, it was empty, leaving only a few messy footprints and some scattered items.

In a corner of the warehouse, Xu Youran found a hidden entrance to the basement. She and Situ Han looked at each other, nodded in tacit understanding, and then carefully went down to the basement. The basement was dark and damp, and the air was filled with a musty smell. They turned on the flashlight and searched carefully in the weak light.

Suddenly, a faint light came from the corner. They walked over and found an old typewriter and a half-opened suitcase. The suitcase was full of letters, photos and old newspapers, each of which was related to the S City family murder case during the Republic of China period.

"It seems that we have found the right place." Situ Han said solemnly, "These letters and photos may be the key evidence of the 'Shadow Organization's' revenge plan."

During the investigation, Xu Youran and Situ Han also encountered many guest characters whose appearance added more complexity and depth to the case.

Officer Zhang, the representative of the S City Police: As a veteran in the police force, he is well aware of the difficulty and danger of this case. While assisting Xu Youran and Situ Han, he also secretly prays that they can successfully solve this mystery and bring peace and tranquility to S City.

The victims' families: They suffered great pain and anger from the loss of their loved ones, and they longed to find the real culprit and have them receive the punishment they deserved. In their communication with Xu Youran and Situ Han, they not only provided valuable clues and emotional support, but also demonstrated the tenacity and strength of human nature.

Possible suspect (man in black windbreaker): Although he has not appeared yet, his shadow is everywhere. His every move reveals a breath of determination and madness, which makes people wonder whether he is really just an Avenger or whether there is a bigger force behind him.

Through continuous investigation and reasoning, Xu Youran and Situ Han gradually pieced together the general outline of the "Shadow Organization's" revenge plan. These letters and photos reveal the deep injustice and unsolved mysteries behind the S City family extermination case during the Republic of China period. The members of the "Shadow Organization" are the descendants or relatives of those victims. They have been lurking for many years just to expose the truth and seek justice.

However, the revelation of the truth did not make them feel at ease. On the contrary, as the investigation deepened, they found that the revenge plan of the "Shadow Organization" was far more complicated and dangerous than they had imagined. Not only did they want to carry out a series of terrorist attacks in S City, they also attempted to expose some scandals involving the political and military circles, thereby causing greater social unrest.

During the investigation, Xu Youran and Situ Han also met a mysterious visitor - an old woman who claimed to be a member of the "Shadow Organization". She looked haggard, and her eyes were full of regret and pain. She told Xu Youran and Situ Han that she was also one of the victims of the family extermination case, but she could not accept the solution of violence. She hoped that they could stop the revenge plan of the "Shadow Organization" and prevent more innocent people from being hurt.

The old lady's words made Xu Youran and Situ Han fall into deep thought. They realized that simply hunting down and cracking down on them could not fundamentally solve the problem. To truly end this cycle of hatred, they must find a peaceful and fair way to resolve the problems left over from history.

So, they began to adjust their strategy, on the one hand, continuing to track down the suspects of the "Shadow Organization", on the other hand, actively seeking cooperation with the political and military circles to jointly deal with this potential crisis. In this process, they experienced countless difficulties and challenges, and even nearly lost their lives several times in the assassination of the "Shadow Organization".

 Ending Easter Eggs and Foreshadowing

Just as Xu Youran and Situ Han's efforts gradually paid off, an unexpected news came - a bizarre disappearance occurred at the S City Human Dairy Farm, and many babies and wet nurses disappeared overnight. This case seems to be inextricably linked to the previous explosion and the revenge plan of the "Shadow Organization".

"The human milk farm..." Situ Han pondered for a moment, frowning, "Could this be the next target of the Shadow Organization? What exactly do they want to do?"

Xu Youran also felt a chill coming over her. She knew very well that this disappearance case was probably just the tip of the iceberg of the "Shadow Organization"'s revenge plan, and a bigger storm was coming.

"We must act immediately," she said firmly. "This time, we have to be one step faster than them."

Therefore, Xu Youran and Situ Han once again set out on the road to find the truth. They knew that the road ahead was full of unknowns and dangers, but they also believed that as long as they worked together, nothing could stop them from uncovering the truth.

On the way to the dairy farm, Xu Youran suddenly received an anonymous letter. The letter contained only one sentence: "The truth is often hidden in the most inconspicuous places." This sentence was like a flash of lightning that cut through the night sky, and it gave her an inexplicable premonition.

"What does this sentence mean?" she murmured to herself.

Situ Han pondered for a moment and said, "Perhaps this is a reminder for us to pay attention to those seemingly insignificant details. In the case of the human milk farm, there may be important clues that we have overlooked."

Xu Youran nodded and made up her mind. She knew that this anonymous letter was probably from a key person who was secretly helping them. The identity and purpose of this person would be the key to solving the next mystery.

As night falls, the S City Human Dairy Farm is shrouded in a mysterious shadow. And the next challenge for Xu Youran and Situ Han is about to begin there...
