rebirth retreat

In the monitoring center of the Rongling traffic police detachment, the atmosphere was particularly dignified.Everyone gathered in front of the computer, watching a 53-second road surveillance video with bated breath.

In the early hours of the morning, on the dark and silent road, two bright lights moved quickly in front of the camera.The one driving at the front was a silver car. The speed of the car had completely exceeded the limit stipulated by the monitoring road section, giving people a feeling of running for their lives in a hurry.Behind it was a black car that was almost blending into the night. Although it kept a certain distance from the silver car in front, it could be seen that the speed was the same as that of the silver car.

After driving for a while, the vehicle behind suddenly accelerated and approached the silver car.When the two cars were about to collide, the silver car in front seemed to have sensed something, and immediately speeded up, pulling away from the black car.

However, everyone did not feel relaxed at all, because in just 53 seconds, this happened three times.The two cars approached sometimes, and sometimes separated, like two naughty children playing.

But everyone knows that this is not a game, this is a contest of life and death.

After watching the surveillance, Xu Yuan said in a deep voice, "Slow down and play it again."

The investigator slowed down the video by five times as promised, and played it again.

The speed was deliberately slowed down, and the situation on the screen was more intuitively displayed in front of everyone.Everyone found that every time the black car approached, the timing and speed were just right.But it is precisely this that shows its ulterior motives.

Xu Yuandao: "Enlarge the picture, lower the speed by one and play it again."

The video was played more slowly, and the two cars that were galloping were like two slowly crawling tortoises in front of everyone.

Suddenly, Xu Yuan said: "Pause!"

The investigator quickly pressed the stop button, and the picture stayed at the moment when the two cars approached. The light from the car lights rendered the whole shot, making the picture completely unreal.Before Xu Yuan could speak, the investigators immediately processed the video.With the adjustment of the data, the license plate and logo hidden under the strong light finally revealed their original appearance——

These two cars are exactly the silver Toyota that Gu Jie had an accident with, and the Mercedes-Benz A-7 sedan that Xu Yuan deduced!

What surprised everyone even more was that a figure appeared in the driver's seat of the black car!Although the camera only captured a little jawline and a hand gripping the steering wheel, it was already a very significant breakthrough for them!

"That's right, it's him!" Xu Yuan slapped the table vigorously, pointed at the screen and said, "Find out who this guy is right now!"

The investigator immediately searched with the computer, and after 2 minutes, he looked at Xu Yuan with an ugly face and said, "Captain, this license plate number does not exist, it is fake!"

"Damn it!" Xu Yuan cursed angrily, and shouted, "Go, contact all toll stations in the city immediately, and find this car out for me within 24 hours!"

"Yes!"

Taking a deep breath, turning to face Gu Liuguang and the others, Xu Yuan said in a deep voice, "I can be sure, this accident was not an accident, but someone's deliberate murder."

Grasping Yan Dongting's arm tightly, Gu Liuguang suddenly remembered the key that Gu Jie had handed over before she died, and a turbulent wave suddenly set off in her heart.

murder?Could it be that the key is passing the murderer's message to them?

Unexpectedly, Wang Hao said, "No, it's still not confirmed as murder. Have you forgotten that when the deceased was rescued, the rescuers said that she smelled alcohol on her body?"

With Wang Hao's reminder, everyone recovered from the shock.

"Wang Dui is right. The evidence we have is not enough to determine the nature of the case." Qin Fayi said, "The most disadvantageous part of this case is that there is no surveillance on the accident road. After driving illegally, he stepped on the brakes to protect himself, and we have nothing to do with him."

Seeing that the fog that had been cleared closed again, Gu Liuguang couldn't help reaching into his pocket, wanting to take out the key.Sensing his intention, Yan Dongting secretly held his hand tightly and asked calmly:

"Then what should we do now?"

Xu Yuandao: "No matter what, people must be arrested. Even if the accident has nothing to do with him, he is the only person who may have witnessed the accident scene. There is also the owner of the silver Toyota car. He lent the car to the deceased. The loose brake must have something to do with him. You can’t get away with it. Don’t worry, leave the matter of arresting people to us, and within 48 hours, we will definitely be able to arrest people and bring them to the bureau!”

"Wang Dui and I immediately rushed to the funeral parlor for further autopsy on the corpse. If we want to prove whether it was murder, we can only start from the corpse." Qin Fayi said.

When following the policeman's car and leaving the gate of the traffic police detachment, both Gu Liuguang and Yan Dongting felt as if they were separated from each other.

Although they had made good mental preparations when they were at the accident scene, none of them expected that the cause of Gu Jie's death was more complicated than they had imagined.But what made Gu Liuguang even more unacceptable was the cat-and-mouse scene in the surveillance video.

Just as he did not believe that Gu Jie would drive on the road knowing that the brakes were broken, he also did not believe that this accident was caused by drunk driving.

Who on earth would use such an extreme method to drive his mother to a dead end?

Holding the key tightly, Gu Liuguang gritted his teeth and asked, "Why didn't you let me hand over the key just now? Do you know that it might be the message she left us about the murderer?"

Yan Dongting looked extremely grim: "Surveillance video can't determine the nature of the case. Do you think it's a murder case with only one key? Not to mention that the key is now full of my and your fingerprints. If the key can clearly Pointing out the murderer's identity, why didn't she give the key to the police, but to me? As you said, the key may represent the murderer's message, but it may also represent other meanings. If later Or, if you take it out rashly, it will only affect the judgment of the police and will not do any good."

Gu Liuguang asked unwillingly: "What good is the key in my hand?"

Yan Dongting said meaningfully: "Don't you want to know which lock it can open?"

Gu Liuguang was stunned for a moment, and said, "You mean, let's check it ourselves?"

"En." Yan Dongting nodded slightly, "I think that's what she meant by giving it to me."

Looking out the window, Gu Liuguang was full of confusion.Yes, if she was really killed, why didn't she tell the police the murderer's name as soon as she was rescued?

Or, there are some hidden secrets that cannot be known by the police, but are closely related to him and Yan Dongting?

Thinking of this, Gu Liuguang suddenly asked Yan Dongting: "Have you...have been secretly investigating my mother?"

Yan Dongting replied calmly, "Yes."

"Then where does she usually move around, who is around her, and who has she made enemies with, do you know all about it?"

Yan Dongting was silent for a while before saying: "After she was released from prison, she has been going back and forth in several casinos in Xicheng for the past few years. There are many people around her. There are rich businessmen, officials and gangsters. No matter who is there, she will respect her." Miss Gu'."

"Really..." Gu Liuguang smiled mockingly, "She really can't leave that kind of place."

"I know what you're thinking. Being able to gain such a status in that place shows that she is very diplomatic and won't make enemies easily." Yan Dongting said.

Yes, she really knows how to seize opportunities, and can hit his weak spot ruthlessly and accurately every time.Taking a deep breath, Gu Liuguang asked, "What if it's for money?"

Yan Dongting said: "This is the best explanation. People from all walks of life are mixed in that kind of place. All the disputes are caused by money. But if the murderer is for money, why bother to arrange so many things? Wouldn't it be better to kill her directly?"

Listening to Yan Dongting's analysis, Gu Liuguang was thoughtful.

The murderer is neither for revenge nor for money, so what is it for?First, he broke the brakes, and then pressed Gu Jie every step of the way on the road, staged a "speed of life and death", so exhausting, if he didn't hate her so much, then he was a psychopath.

Thinking of the processed figure in the surveillance video, Gu Liuguang couldn't help shivering.

Sensing his uneasiness, Yan Dongting freed his hand, held his clenched fist comfortingly, and comforted him, "Relax, the police are already chasing him, and he will definitely be caught."

Letting out a deep breath, Gu Liuguang replied: "I know." But he always felt uneasy in his heart for some reason.

Looking out the window, he found that the car was driving back to the city. Gu Liuguang asked, "Where are you going?"

"Go back to the company for a meeting." Yan Dongting said.

Gu Liuguang lowered his head and thought for a while, then said, "Take me to see Gude."

Yan Dongting looked at him who was pretending to be calm, but did not speak, but adjusted the driving route with his hand.Half an hour later, the two arrived safely at the underground parking lot of the apartment.

Gu Liuguang opened the door and was about to get out of the car, but Yan Dongting stopped him: "I will come here to pick you up after the meeting, don't run around."

"Understood." After a pause, Gu Liuguang frowned, and said hesitantly, "You... really want to make up for those losses by yourself?"

"This is my plan, and I will be responsible to the end."

Taking a deep look at him, Gu Liuguang opened the door and got out of the car, walking towards the elevator ahead.

Yan Dongting sat in the car and watched Gu Liuguang enter the elevator before turning around and galloping towards the company.

As soon as he drove out of the community, Yan Dongting's cell phone rang in his coat.He took out his mobile phone and connected the call, and the other end immediately asked:

"Yan Dongting, where are you now?"

It's Tang Qian.

"On the way back to the company." Yan Dongting replied.

Tang Qian asked anxiously, "What about Gu Liuguang?"

Yan Dongting said: "Now we should be with Gude."

Tang Qian seemed to breathe a sigh of relief, then his voice sank, and he asked solemnly, "Did something happen in City A?"

"How do you know?" Yan Dongting was slightly startled, then sensed something from his words, and asked, "Are you not in City A?"

"You answer my question first." Tang Qian's voice was stern and irrefutable.

Yan Dongting paused, and replied: "Yes, Gu Jie died in a traffic accident early this morning."

Tang Qian was not surprised and asked, "Is it an accident?"

Opening the car window slightly, the biting cold wind rushed in. Yan Dongting narrowed his sharp and stern eyes and replied, "The police preliminarily determined that it was murder."

There was silence on the other end of the phone for a long time, and then Tang Qian's extremely dignified voice came: "Who is the murderer?"

"I don't know yet. The police are investigating, but it is difficult to solve the case. There is too little evidence left at the scene."

Tang Qian tentatively asked, "It has nothing to do with you, does it?"

With a wry smile, Yan Dongting replied, "Of course it has nothing to do with me."

As if he breathed a sigh of relief, with a hint of guilt for his friend, Tang Qian changed the subject a little bluntly: "How is Liu Guang, is he in a good mood?"

"Not very good." Yan Dongting said.

"His temper is easy to get into the horns, you have to be patient and spend more time with him." Tang Qian slowed down his tone, "It was hard for him to let go of everything and face you. Don't waste the previous efforts."

"I know." Yan Dongting said, "I have a measure."

"About Gu Jie's case, after I go back, tell me all the details you know." Tang Qian said.

Thinking of Gu Jie's dying words and the key, Yan Dongting said in a concentrated voice, "Okay, I just need your help." After a pause, he asked, "Where are you now? Why did you leave City A suddenly?"

Tang Qian didn't tell Yan Dongting the purpose of going out, but said: "I'm on my way back to City A, and I will arrive before 10 o'clock at night. If you have anything to say, we can talk about it after we meet. Remember to The airport will pick me up." After finishing speaking, he hung up the phone.

Listening to the busy beeping in the earphones, Yan Dongting frowned tightly.
