The wildness of man is no different from all kinds of wild animals in the oak forest. —Ben Jonson

Hard-working people wake up at dawn and start their day's work. Men take advantage of the coolness to go to the cornfields to hoe the weeds that have sprouted. Women make steamed buns and wait for the men to come back from work with ready-made meals. , Cooking smoke curled up, pots and pans rang lightly, and loud voices came from time to time, everything seemed busy and energetic.

Liang’s sister-in-law didn’t steam steamed buns today, and the man suddenly had a fever at night, so she went to the east of the village to exchange two catties of fruit after serving all night without energy. A good breakfast, but God's will, her fruit is destined to be filled by the big black dog next door.

When she passed by Widow He's door, she glanced into the courtyard through the crack of the gate, "It's been several days, why haven't you come back?" He jumped out of the yard and jumped onto the brick pile outside the wall, and finally jumped to her side so suddenly that she exclaimed, "God damn sunspot! You scared me to death!"

'Heizi' knew her, so he squatted down in front of her and wagged his tail to show her his 'delicious breakfast', "What are you doing at other people's house again? Be careful, the other day they were skinned and sold... ah!! Ah!!", when she saw clearly what was in 'Heizi''s mouth, she threw the fruit in her hand into the sky, then stumbled and ran away, shouting as if to get what she saw. It's like shouting out of my head.

'Heizi' was startled by her, and after returning to the dog god, he put the 'delicious' in his mouth aside, and then went to chase the bag of more oily and fragrant fruits.

Wan Tili lifted the file boxes in his arms up to prevent the middle ones from slipping down. Today, a new team leader will be parachuted, and it will take nearly two years of major cases, important cases and 'zombie cases' (cases that have not been solved for a long time) Put it neatly on the new captain's desk.While waiting for the elevator, he guessed what his new boss would look like. He hoped that he would be a warm-hearted senior man with outstanding abilities, who would be meticulous at work and able to mingle with them in private. Don't be a short, bald man with a waist circumference of more than two feet seven. That's too inconsistent with his aesthetics.

While he was trying to figure it out, the elevator arrived. Wan Qili raised his legs and walked in. Unfortunately, the file box full of him blocked his view of looking down. He stumbled into the elevator slot, and his original calm posture instantly staggered. It is covered with footprints of Wan Tili dodging left and right.

"Ahh~" He tore himself off the elevator wall and looked at the mess under his feet, "Huh, fortunately no one saw it." While the elevator was going up, he quickly put the documents on the floor back into the box, and he was about to Today is the first meeting with the new captain. He doesn't want to be late. What's more, Director Luo will personally preside over the regular meeting of the criminal investigation department at nine o'clock in the morning. The entire criminal investigation department is divided into four teams. Wan Qili is in the second team. Liu Gang, the former captain, was transferred to a brother unit in Linshi as the deputy section chief.

With 10 minutes left, he put the reorganized file in his arms on the big table at the entrance of the meeting room, poured a glass of water and sat in the exclusive seat of their team, "How is it, is the new captain here?"

Liang Ziwei quickly turned the pen in his hand with his dexterous fingers, "No," he whispered to Wan Qili in a low voice, "I hope it's not a fool, can our team be salty after being pressed on the head for so long?" This is where the fish turned around... huh? Where's the little demon?"

Liang Ziwei is looking for Yao Yao, the 'technician' of their second team. He just graduated from university last year and was assigned by another team. A little girl who can't resist her shoulders and has a baby face.

As soon as the words fell, a petite girl with bob hair, big eyes, fair skin and fair skin came in from the door. When she saw her, she ran over in a jolt, "I was scared to death, I thought I was late." While talking, she took out a sandwich from the huge cloth bag and lowered her head to gnaw it, "Brother, have you had breakfast yet?" She freed her hand and took out two Snickers bars from it to distribute to them, so the 'three' of the second team The group' started sharing food under the cover of a conference table.

Chen Xiucheng stood at the side door of the conference room and looked at his team members with raised eyebrows. Wan Qili was [-] years old, [-] cm tall, a [-]-year-old high-achieving student with a master's degree in criminal investigation. He stayed for three years with no faults; Liang Ziwei was [-] years old, [-] centimeters tall, graduated from a bachelor's degree, and had a good relationship with Wan Qijun and Liu Gang's subordinates. For two years, the film police can speak well and have a solid mass base; Yao Yao, [-] years old, [-] cm in height, a postgraduate student, is eccentric and eccentric. When he was in college, he was too energetic to be a hacker and was eventually taken in by the criminal investigation department for his own use because of his "outstanding grades". Both are. ． ．talent

Director Luo arrived at the meeting room on time at nine o'clock. According to the usual practice, he first reported the progress of the cases in the hands of each team. Except for their second team, the captains of the other three teams gave concise explanations, and brought up any doubts that could not be solved. Come out for discussion and brainstorming.

After the last four teams finished reporting, Director Luo expressed his basic satisfaction with the progress of each case and urged everyone to speed up. After all, the murderer waits for no one and new cases will happen at any time.

"Okay, the case report is over. Everyone knows that Captain Liu of the second team has been transferred for more than a month. He received instructions from his superiors to arrange a new captain for our second team," the side door of the meeting room opened, and a The long legs caught everyone's eyes first, "Wow~, Ouba with long legs~~" Yao Yao exclaimed in a low voice.

"Let me introduce to you, this is Comrade Chen Xiucheng who will take over as the captain of the second team. Welcome." There was warm applause in the conference room, and everyone's eyes shone with light --- green light, very good, the game was full of wolves. Without this guy, the girlfriend index that was already nervous when he came here is hopeless. "Comrade Chen Xiucheng was an excellent special forces instructor. I hope that in the future work, we can help each other and make progress together, so as to contribute to the fight against crime and build a safe and harmonious social environment." Make a positive contribution. Next, let Captain Chen tell you a few words, and everyone applauds!"

Chen Xiucheng walked two steps forward and stood in front of the conference table. He first saluted everyone, "My name is Chen Xiucheng, and I am very glad to be able to work with you. Friends in life, my team members and I," Chen Xiucheng looked at Wan Qili and his party, and the three of them straightened their chests quickly, "We will also march forward bravely on the front line of fighting crime. Let’s all work together to contribute to the stability of society, thank you.”

"It's so handsome!" Yao Yao was so excited that her hands were about to slap red, Liang Ziwei calmly applauded and hit the little junior sister sourly, "No matter how handsome you are, it's not your thing, little girl."

"Ouba likes loli the most, we are the strongest CP, OK?"

"Return Lolita? Let me be a fool."

"You just..."

"Shut up!" Wan Qili couldn't take it anymore and yelled at them in a low voice, "It doesn't matter what time it is or what the noise is!"

"He said mine first." Yao Yao replied in a low voice.

"I'm afraid that you'll be blinded by color..." Liang Ziwei did not show any weakness.

"Shut up!" Wan Qili covered his nose with his hands, so that no one could see that he was talking. He instinctively glanced at his new boss, only to see that man's long and narrow Danfeng eyes staring at them who were secretly arguing. Wan Teng was startled, it was the first time he had encountered such a deep and powerful gaze, he elbowed Liang and Yao who were fighting again.

After the meeting was over, Director Luo left the four captains and the others dispersed. Everyone chatted as they walked. The newcomer Chen Xiucheng was naturally the topic of conversation. Everyone used their rich knowledge of criminal investigation to speculate on his origin. Age, height, marital status and so on.

The three of them returned to the office of the second team. Wan Tili wiped the clean captain's desk carefully again, and directed the unreliable Liang Ziwei and Yao Yao to fetch hot water and wipe the floor again. When Chen Xiucheng took the case from the new newspaper from the director, the office was as clean as a model apartment for the sales department.

Chen Xiucheng looked around at the door, and his team members were standing respectfully in a row on the left side of the desk, "Hi Captain! We are members of the second team, my name is Liang Ziwei."

"My name is Wan Qili."

"I, my name is Yao Yao."

"Well, hello, everyone," Chen Xiucheng walked in, and he put the information in his hand in front of them, "Not much to say, here comes the case."

case? !The three of them looked at each other. Since Captain Liu left, the three of them have been assigned to other teams to do odd jobs. Of course, they didn't go there when Captain Liu was there. The other teams picked up the leftovers and gave them to them. Did the new captain have a case as soon as he arrived?So strong!

"What?" Chen Xiucheng looked at the puzzled expressions of the three people, "This is a meeting gift from the director, a murder case, a murder case in a wooden barrel." He picked up the documents again and shook them in front of the three people.

Wan Tulli and the others ignored the rules and snatched the information directly from the captain. The case was reported in the morning newspaper, so there was very little information. There were only a few photos from the scene—a messy building full of sundries. Squatting in the corner of the small side room is an old self-made large wooden barrel. The lid of the wooden barrel was lifted to the side. Inside is a naked woman who has been divided into pieces. This is probably the case, but the woman's staring eyes that have begun to rot are still shocking. The other picture was taken outdoors, and it is very clear that it is a broken right palm that was gnawed and thrown on the side of the road. .

"The crime took place in Wuzhi Village, Yuyang County, let's go immediately!"

"Yes!"

Liang Ziwei drove Chen Xiucheng and sat in the co-pilot. Wan Qili and Yao Yao were studying the photos in their hands in the back row. The atmosphere was awkward for a moment. The insane murder case was really not a good time to chat with each other. Liang Ziwei coughed lightly and turned on the radio. The melodious music played made the car a little more lively.

Yao Yao pushed the photo into Wan Tili's hands, she felt that she should take the initiative to flirt with her CP, "Captain, you used to be a soldier?"

"En," Chen Xiucheng turned his head back, but the number of words in his response was pitifully small.

Yao Yao continued to work hard, "The director said you are a special soldier, which unit are you from? The name is really cool."

Wan Tulli and Liang Ziwei also pricked up their ears. For men, the special forces are definitely a super attractive place.

"This... is kept secret."

"No, tell me, Alpha? City Hunter? Viper? Oh, it can't be Sirius?" Liang Ziwei and Wan Qili complained in their hearts: It really is that I have watched too many stupid dramas.

Chen Xiucheng's neat sword eyebrows twitched, "No." Seeing the little girl's expression was a bit disappointed, he added, "My army...has no name, um, or it doesn't have a specific name."

The topic opened, and then Yao Yao took out a lot of information from the new captain by virtue of his articulateness, pretending to be stupid and cute. Chen Xiucheng is 11 years old this year. He was recruited into the army as a special student at the age of [-]. Five years later, he joined a mysterious special force. It has been [-] years, and he has been injured several times, big and small. Last year, he retired from the special team because of his serious injuries. After more than half a year of training, he came to their second criminal investigation team as the captain.

Overkill!This is the unanimous feeling of all three of them.

When they arrived, the medical examiner and the forensic doctor were already busy at the scene, and the police from the local police station were also collecting testimony from witnesses. Liang Ziwei stopped the car outside the cordon and they showed their IDs before entering the scene.

This is the most common small farmyard in the countryside. The owner is not good at taking care of the yard. Objects that should have been discarded can be seen everywhere in the yard. When you walk into the yard, the floor is covered with waste bricks that were discarded from demolished houses and have turned black due to the sun and rain all year round. Brown, the wooden barrel where the body was found was in the side room on the east side of the yard. When the police saw them, they came forward to report the information they had collected, "You are from the Municipal Criminal Investigation Team. Hello, I am from the Township Police Station, and my name is Zhang Yang. "

Chen Xiucheng shook hands with him, "We are from the Second Municipal Criminal Investigation Team. I am the captain, Chen Xiucheng. They are my team members, Wan Qili, Liang Ziwei, and Yao Yao."

"Hi everyone, the current situation is as follows. The deceased He Luoying, 12 years old, was a native of Wuzhi Village. The man died of a work-related injury 23 years ago. One of his sons was a senior student at the University of Economics and Business in the provincial capital. According to the villagers, the last time they saw the deceased It was around ten o'clock in the morning on June 06, five days ago. The deceased claimed that she was going to get acupuncture and then meet relatives. No one has seen her since that day. Villager Zheng Sansheng The black dog of the family took out a right hand from the deceased's home. The frightened villagers reported to the police that the dead He Luoying's body was found. The deceased had a good relationship with her neighbors, but there were rumors that she had abnormal relationships with many men. , This point has not been confirmed yet, the person involved has already recorded the process of discovering the corpse in detail," Zhang Yang handed a stack of recording papers to Chen Xiucheng, "That's all for now, if you need our support, just ask."

"This is already very good, thank you, we will keep in touch." Chen Xiucheng expressed his thanks and led the team to the scene.

The traces have been extracted. They stepped over the threshold and walked in. As reflected in the photo, the layout was messy and the light was dark. A large group of blowflies buzzed overhead like bombers. Everyone's sense of smell.

Chen Xiucheng walked in with a blank expression, Wan Qili and Liang Ziwei looked at each other, followed by the reluctant Yao Yao, Wan Qili was the first to see the scene in the barrel, and he suppressed the sight that was caused by the visual impact. I can’t remember the number of times I’ve appeared on the scene over the years, but it’s the first time I’ve seen him so “troubleshooting” arranging the corpses. The limbs of the corpses in the barrel were cut off and the legs were placed on the lower arms according to the shape of the container. Then, in the middle of the two arms surrounded by a rotten human head, there are signs of being eaten on the face. If you guessed correctly, the body should be placed under the limbs and head. Chen Xiucheng asked Liang Ziwei and Yao Yao to go out Talk to the villagers who were familiar with the deceased. He believes that with the "gossip" spirit of the two, they will be able to dig out a lot of information that is not in the information.

Wan Tili poked the forensic doctor who was recording, "Sister Han."

Han Siyin raised his head and flicked away the annoying flies, "Yo? Wan Cheng, which team are you on the field again?"

"Hehe," Wan Tili looked at the remains in the bucket. It seemed that the dog who took the palm of his hand was not the first time to eat here. "This time we came here by ourselves. We have a captain. Turn around."

Han Siyin straightened up and turned around, aiming at a well-proportioned chest with well-proportioned muscles, then raised his head, huh!This era of looking at faces.

"You are Forensic Doctor Han, right? I am the newly appointed captain of the second team, Chen Xiucheng."

"Hello, Captain Chen, I'm Han Siyin from the Forensic Medical Office." She was examining the corpse and it was obviously inconvenient to shake hands, so the two had to nod at each other. The time of death was five days ago. According to neighbors, the deceased often felt numbness in his legs. On the same day, he went to an old Chinese doctor in Lin County for acupuncture. I don’t know if he went there. The specific time and cause of death will have to go back to the bureau to get the body out. clear."

"Okay, hard work."

Han Siyin nodded and left, Chen Xiucheng circled the barrel twice, "How does it feel?" He asked Wan Qili beside him.

"The body parts are not placed randomly. The body should be placed at the bottom. The upper limbs of the deceased are on the top layer and then wrap around his head. Well, it feels very evil," Wan Qili lowered his body to meet the rotting body of the deceased. Looking at each other, "The deceased's eyes were wide open, as if he was surprised and angry at what the murderer did. It is not ruled out that the murderer and the deceased knew each other. The murderer seems to be... taking revenge on the deceased."

Chen Xiucheng nodded, he took a bamboo pole by the wall and picked up the dead man's arm, "Although the corpse is severely decomposed, you can still see that the cut surface is very neat, except for the palm that was torn off by the dog, no matter whether it is placed or cut, it looks like It was carefully calculated, not like a murder of passion, the murderer feels very calm."

Wan Qili was surprised by Chen Xiucheng's judgment on the murderer. He thought that the captain was a veteran parachuted from the army, and he probably had no experience in handling cases.After watching the scene, he called the police to bring the barrel back together with the body, "Captain, have you solved cases in the army before?" Wan Tili trotted to catch up with Chen Xiucheng who had left the door.

"I haven't solved a case before," Chen Xiucheng stopped and turned to stare at him, "but I've seen—— corpses of various ways of death." Wan Tili was startled, uh~ Where can I see so many corpses?He shook his head to drive away the horrific images in his mind.
