Xingnian Tea House

Qiao Xingnian and Lin Nanyue came to the police station together and went straight to the forensic department. Even though it was already eleven o'clock in the evening, the forensic department was still brightly lit. Tang Ran was conducting an autopsy on Feng in the autopsy room.

Qiao Xingnian had already turned into a soul, and followed Lin Nanyue into the dissection room.

Hearing the sound of the door opening, Tang Ran looked up at the direction of the door, then lowered his head and continued his work until he took out the internal organs of the deceased and put them on the scale beside him before he said, "Didn't you leave work?" Is it? Why are you back again?"

"I forgot something, come back and get it, and take a look at how the autopsy is progressing?"

Qiao Xingnian didn't find Yu Feng's soul, so he came to Lin Nanyue's side and whispered, "It's not here, I'll go to the morgue to see, Ayue doesn't have to follow."

Lin Nanyue nodded incredulously, and stretched out his hands to pinch his hot ears.

"Record the values." Tang Ran told the assistant, then looked at Lin Nanyue, and said angrily, "You just asked before leaving get off work, and now you are asking again. You are not in such a hurry to urge your life."

"It's been two hours since I got off work, haven't you found anything?"

"Team Lin, ancestor! Although I am a forensic doctor, I am also a human being. I am not made of iron. I need to eat and rest!"

Tang Ran gritted his teeth. People don't die in silence, they erupt in silence. The continuous high-intensity work made him completely erupt, and said: "Lin Nanyue, how many years we have cooperated, how many years have you squeezed me? It's not that I owed you in the previous life, you come to collect the debt from me in this life, if you really think it's too slow, you might as well take my life."

Tang Ran's assistant Xiao Min gave him a timid look, and gave Lin Nanyue a helpless look.

Lin Nanyue turned around and came to the water dispenser, took out a disposable cup, took a cup of warm water and walked over, handed it to Tang Ran and said, "Drink some water to moisten your throat, and then scold later."

Tang Ran looked at the water glass, then at Lin Nanyue, let out a deep breath, took off his gloves, took the water glass, and said, "If you keep pressing, I'll quit!"

Although Tang Ran said so, Lin Nanyue knew that he was just speaking out of anger. After working together for so many years, Lin Nanyue knew him well. His love for work and dedication to his work were stronger than anyone else.The reason why he collapsed was because of the continuous high-intensity work that put him under too much pressure. He urgently needed an outlet to vent out the negative emotions accumulated in his heart.

"Well, do you feel better?"

Tang Ran drank a few sips of water, looked at Lin Nanyue, and said, "You handed the water a little early, let me swear a few more words, it will make you feel more comfortable."

Lin Nanyue said angrily: "If I hadn't worked with you for so many years, I would have turned against you just now, do you want to scold me a little more?"

Tang Ran put the water glass aside and said, "I've been squeezed by you for so many years, what's wrong with being scolded by me, it's not painful."

Lin Nanyue didn't know whether to laugh or cry when he heard the words, and said, "Why don't you let me scold you?"

Tang Ran put it away as soon as it was ready, put on the gloves again, and said, "Okay, you can go, the autopsy report will be out tomorrow morning."

Lin Nanyue looked up at the clock on the wall, and said, "It's getting late, pack up and get off work, and continue tomorrow."

Tang Ran was stunned, feeling a little moved, and said, "Let's forget it, even if we go back now, I have something on my mind, so I can't rest well. Why don't you stay up tonight and sleep soundly tomorrow."

"Can you hold on?"

"That's where it's at, don't worry." Tang Ran bumped Lin Nanyue with his arm, and said, "Let's go quickly, don't delay my work."

Lin Nanyue nodded and said, "Then you have worked hard tonight, and when the autopsy report comes out, just put it in my office."

"Yeah, got it." Tang Ran nodded impatiently.

Lin Nanyue didn't say much, turned around and walked out of the dissecting room.

……

Qiao Xingnian left the dissecting room, went straight to the morgue, and walked in through the door.There were several grieving ghosts in the morgue, male and female, but Qiao Xingnian had never seen Gao Yang and Liang Chao, so he wasn't sure if it was them.

One of the female ghosts floated straight towards Qiao Xingnian, her eyes were scarlet and her face was ferocious. Qiao Xingnian didn't want to waste time with her, so she chanted a spell silently, threw a spell, and hit her.The female ghost screamed and hurriedly retreated to the corner of the room, looking at Qiao Xingnian in fear.

Qiao Xingnian looked at them and asked bluntly, "Which of you is Liang Chao and who is Gao Yang?"

The grieving ghosts looked at each other and shook their heads.

Qiao Xingnian frowned upon hearing this, his eyes turned cold, and said, "If you don't want to be beaten to death, you'd better tell the truth."

The female ghost who was beaten just now said out loud, "Master, we are really not."

The other two male ghosts also responded again and again, saying: "Although the bodies of the two of them are here, their souls have never been here."

"Never been here?" Qiao Xingnian frowned slightly, turned and left the morgue without speaking.

As soon as Qiao Xingnian came to the door of the dissecting room, he ran into Lin Nanyue who was going out.

"Go to your office and talk."

Lin Nanyue didn't speak. There were surveillance cameras here. He didn't want to arouse suspicion, so he went straight to his office.The two came to the door and walked in one after another.

Lin Nanyue locked the lock habitually, and asked aloud, "Did you find them?"

Qiao Xingnian shook his head and said, "No, I asked the grieving ghosts in the morgue just now, and they said that Liang Chao and Gao Yang never showed up."

Lin Nanyue guessed: "Hasn't they appeared? Are they still at the scene of the crime?"

"I'd better summon the soul, so I don't have to run back and forth."

Lin Nanyue took the initiative to tell the date of birth of the two, and then retreated to the corner of the room.

Qiao Xingnian recited the spell silently, and a spell appeared in his hand.He sat cross-legged on the ground, closed his eyes and recited the incantation silently, pinched his fingers, and the amulet in his hand suddenly ignited, turned into sparks, and slowly floated into the air, forming a mysterious pattern, floating in the air and spinning slowly.

The rotation of the pattern became faster and faster, and finally it was hard to distinguish with the naked eye. Suddenly, it exploded with a "bang", turning into ashes and falling to the ground.

Qiao Xingnian opened his eyes and said, "Both of their souls are gone."

"Gone?" Lin Nanyue frowned, and said, "You mean they're gone?"

"Yeah." Qiao Xingnian nodded and said, "It's not just the two of them, I'm afraid Yu Feng's soul is gone."

"What the hell is going on, how did their souls disappear?"

Qiao Xingnian sighed, and said, "A Yue, my intuition tells me that this case is also related to that mysterious person."

"You mean, this is another game against you?"

"I'm afraid so." Qiao Xingnian smiled helplessly, and said, "If I was only suspicious of Wu Hai before, now I'm almost sure that he should be involved."

"But he doesn't have time to commit crimes at all." Lin Nanyue paused, and then said: "Does he also raise ghosts? People who use ghosts to kill?"

Qiao Xingnian pondered for a while, and said, "That kind of crime doesn't look like a ghost. It should be the murderer venting the resentment in his heart, so I think the murderer is a human, not a ghost."

"Tang Ran has re-conducted the autopsy to confirm that the time of death is correct. If you believe it is Wu Hai, then it doesn't make sense."

Qiao Xingnian was thoughtful, and after a while, he asked, "Have you confirmed that Liang Chao and Gao Yang bullied Wu Hai?"

Lin Nanyue nodded and said: "We interviewed many people. At the beginning, they refused to speak up. After a long time of hard work, they finally opened their mouths. There were five people who bullied Wu Hai back then. Among them, Gao Yang and Liang Chao are the leaders."

"Who are the other three?"

"One is Shang Di, one is Kong Han, and the last one is a girl named Tao Tiantian."

"There are girls?" Qiao Xingnian was a little surprised.

Lin Nanyue nodded and said, "Tao Tiantian and Liang Chao were boyfriend and girlfriend in high school."

Qiao Xingnian was startled again, and then said, "Then they admitted to sexually assaulting Wu Hai?"

Lin Nanyue shook his head and said, "At that time, they were already 16 years old. If they admitted to this incident, they would be held criminally responsible. They knew how to avoid the serious and ignore the minor."

"I think this matter can start with Tao Tiantian. No matter who it is, my boyfriend will have a relationship with someone else, and it will become a knot in my heart. Besides, this matter should have nothing to do with her."

"I've tried it." Lin Nanyue paused, and continued: "I found a breakthrough from Tao Tiantian about their bullying Wu Hai, but no matter how I asked, she refused to admit it."

"A Yue, I think if the murderer is really Wu Hai, he will not let the other two people go. Where are they now?"

"Shang Di went abroad to study and hasn't come back yet. Kong Han went to university in Yancheng, and then stayed in Yancheng to work. He only comes back every year during the Chinese New Year."

"Then have you contacted Kong Han?"

"I called before, he's fine."

"Ayue, have you investigated how Wu Hai was sexually assaulted by Han Chong?"

Lin Nanyue shook his head and said, "I will hand this matter over to the police station that took over for investigation. They retrieved the call records of the two and found that they did not talk on the phone that night. They also retrieved the surveillance video of the shopping mall and the hotel, and found that Wu Hai After entering the shopping mall, Han Chong had indeed been following him, and it was also Han Chong who dragged Wu Hai into the hotel and dragged him all the way to the room where we found him."

"Then, the matter of Han Chong's sex/violation of Wu Hai can be settled."

"Han Chong insisted that he did not sexually assault Wu Hai, nor did he drug him. It was Wu Hai who called him, asked him to go to the mall, and said that he would play hide-and-seek with him in the mall. If he found him, Wu Hai would Let him do whatever he wants."

"The two insist on their own opinions, but the existing evidence is not good for Han Chong." Qiao Xingnian thought for a while and said, "Since Han Chong said that Wu Hai called him, there must be that number, right? Not under Wu Hai's name?"

"That's a network number, the server is abroad, and the ip address can't be found at all."

"In other words, Han Chong did receive a call, but he couldn't confirm who called it."

Lin Nanyue nodded and said, "So the case has been stuck here. If Han Chong can't provide evidence to prove that the number belongs to Wu Hai, he will most likely be sued for sex/assault."

Qiao Xingnian felt extremely complicated when he heard this result. The reason why he became suspicious of Wu Hai was because something happened to Wu Hai on the day Wu Hai mentioned the harassment to him.

But on the night Gao Yang and Liang Chao were murdered, Wu Hai was sexually assaulted again, and then he attempted suicide and was sent to the hospital, and he and Lin Nanyue became his best witnesses at the time. Everything was too coincidental and too logical.

Seeing that Qiao Xingnian fell silent, Lin Nanyue said, "You still doubt Wu Hai?"

"Everything is too coincidental, so I have to doubt him." Qiao Xing sighed for a long time, and said, "Actually, after hearing about his experience, I always feel that those who bullied him There is more than enough to die, if you lose the rest of your life because of this, it is not worth it at all."

"I understand how you feel. I have encountered this kind of thing before, and I even doubted the meaning of being a policeman..."

Lin Nanyue understood Qiao Xingnian's feelings. He also faced such problems when he first became a policeman.

Many years ago, a criminal killed someone and was revenged by the victim. In order to save his life, he had to surrender and seek police protection.In order for him to be tried by law, the police had to send someone to protect him.During that period, the criminal not only ordered the police officers wantonly, but even harassed the female police officer, which angered all the police officers responsible for protecting him.

At that time, Lin Nanyue was still a small police officer, and he also had a share in this task. He asked himself countless times why he wanted to protect this kind of scum, and this confusion was especially strong when the victim was shot dead.He couldn't forget the victim's eyes as he fell, and the tear he shed.

Later, Lin Nanyue learned that the criminal not only killed his wife, but also killed his three-year-old daughter. This made him wonder why he wanted to be a policeman, and he had to undergo several months of psychological counseling before he returned to normal. .

After listening to Lin Nanyue's narration, Qiao Xingnian's heart was heavy, he exhaled heavily, and said, "I understand those great truths, not to mention that even if they can escape the punishment of the law, they can't escape karma. Go to hell."

"Now the number of deaths is still increasing, but the cases are stagnant. I am afraid that if this continues, it will cause social panic."

"Our general idea is good. The murderer must have been violated or even abused by the deceased, so whether it is Wu Hai or not, as long as Ayue starts from this point, he will not go wrong." Qiao Xingnian thought for a while and said : "First check if Yu Feng, Liang Chao, and Gao Yang have overlapped. If not, then you have to consider the possibility that the murderer in these three cases is not the same person."

"You mean that the three cases were not committed by the same person?"

"It depends on whether Yu Feng is related to them." Qiao Xingnian thought for a while, and said, "If the murderer is not the same person, then it makes sense for Wu Hai to deliberately create an alibi."

Lin Nanyue's eyes lit up, and he said, "You mean killing people in exchange?"

"Yes." Qiao Xingnian nodded with a smile, and said, "There is no sign of damage to the door lock of the deceased's house, which means that the deceased has no defense against the murderer, which means that in the deceased's heart, the murderer is not a threat at all.

This kind of defenselessness is not only between acquaintances, Ayue, don't forget, the private life of the two of them is chaotic, and they often bring men and women home. It is enough to understand this.To understand this, it is not necessary for the murderer to be acquainted with the deceased, it only needs to be understood from other people's mouths.

If they exchange kills, they will exchange information, and they can easily learn all the information about the dead person.And when they do it, they only need to let the other party produce an alibi, and they can successfully avoid the sight of the police. "

After listening to Qiao Xingnian's analysis, Lin Nanyue couldn't help being enlightened, heaved a sigh of relief, and said, "Xingnian, although you may be tired of hearing it, I still want to say that it's a pity that you don't become a policeman."

"Not tired, how can you get tired of listening to compliments?"

Qiao Xingnian continued: "A Yue, the next thing you need to check is Yu Feng's relationship, to see if he has sexually assaulted men, or has other special hobbies. I think his ex-wife should be visited by you best candidate."

Lin Nanyue looked at Qiao Xingnian seriously, and said, "Xingnian, you are really good, very good! You are so good...have you really decided to be with me?"

"If I said I regretted it, what would Ayue do?"

"No!" Lin Nanyue approached Qiao Xingnian, his eyes were unprecedentedly strong, he looked directly into Qiao Xingnian's eyes, and said, "Don't go back on your word!"

Seeing Lin Nanyue like this, Qiao Xingnian was a little surprised, but also very happy, and said: "A Yue, you are very good, no matter in appearance or talent, you are not inferior to anyone. So in love, you should also be with Lin Nanyue. As confident as you are at work, you have to think in your heart, no one can compare to you in my heart, you should have this confidence."

Lin Nanyue looked at Qiao Xingnian and said, "So in your heart, no one can compare to me, right?"

Qiao Xingnian was startled, then nodded seriously, and said, "Yes, no one can compare to you in my heart."

Lin Nanyue raised the corners of his mouth and reached out to hug Qiao Xingnian, but the hug was in vain.

Qiao Xingnian smiled and said, "Ah Yue, this is at the police station, it's not appropriate to hug her."

"Then let's go home." Lin Nanyue looked at Qiao Xingnian expectantly.

Of course, Qiao Xingnian saw the expectation in Lin Nanyue's eyes clearly, and immediately understood what he meant, but he pretended to be stupid and said: "It's really time to go home, it's already 12 o'clock, if you don't go back, it will be midnight."

Disappointment flashed across Lin Nanyue's eyes, and he said, "Well, let's go, I'll take you back."

"What's wrong with Ayue? Why do you feel a little disappointed in your tone?"

"Tone?" Lin Nanyue was stunned, then looked at Qiao Xingnian, and said tentatively, "You understand what I mean, don't you?"

Qiao Xingnian approached, kissed him on the lips, and said, "If we have something to say, we'll talk about it after we get out of the police station."

Lin Nanyue raised the corner of his mouth and left the police station with Qiao Xingnian.

In the car, Lin Nanyue didn't start the car, but turned to look at Qiao Xingnian and said, "You... understand what I mean?"

"I'm not stupid. How could I not understand A Yue's obvious hint." Qiao Xingnian reached out and held Lin Nanyue, and said, "It's just that you work late every day and are already very tired. Are you really tired?" What is needed is a good rest. As for other things... we have plenty of time."

Lin Nanyue's face became hot, he interlocked fingers with Qiao Xingnian, and said, "Xingnian, the house you live in will be demolished soon, where are you going to move?"

How could Qiao Xingnian not understand Lin Nanyue's meaning, and said: "My brother bought me a house, and the decoration is almost done now, but it needs to be ventilated and aired, I may temporarily move to my brother's new house .”

"Didn't you say that Dr. Jiang's sleep is shallow, and every time you go home late at night, you will wake him up. Why don't you find a house by yourself? Besides, Dr. Jiang will have his own life in the future. If he has a girlfriend, he should It will be very inconvenient..."

When Lin Nanyue was talking, Qiao Xingnian kept holding back his laughter, but at the end he couldn't hold back anymore, he let out a "puhhh" laugh and said, "Ayue, why are you so cute!"

Lin Nanyue came to his senses instantly, his face was hot and hot, and he said angrily: "Qiao Xingnian, you understand everything, and you still pretend to be confused with me!"

"Ayue, as I said before, just say what you want to do, you don't need to beat around the bush like this. Let's not guess, you will be pleasantly surprised if I guess it today; but if I don't guess it, You will be disappointed in your heart, but I don't know anything. After a long time, not only you will be tired, but I will also be tired."

Lin Nanyue nodded, took a deep breath, and mustered up the courage to say, "Then would you like to live with me?"

"Not yet."

Without giving Lin Nanyue a chance to be disappointed, Qiao Xingnian immediately said: "We don't have a public relationship, just in case, we can't live together openly. However, the apartment building where Ayue lives now has a flat downstairs. Well, if Ayue is willing, I can move in. Or, Ayue simply buys another one in our community, and lives upstairs and downstairs. If you want to do something, it won’t attract attention, what do you think? "

Lin Nanyue's eyes lit up, and he quickly asked, "Then are there any houses for sale in the unit building where you are?"

"It should be. After all, it is a newly built community. I will call tomorrow to ask."

"But even if you buy it now, you still need to decorate and ventilate it. If you want to live in it, it will take three months. Isn't it a bit long?"

"For our future happy life, Ayue will bear it for now."

Lin Nanyue hesitated and said, "That's fine."

Lin Nanyue understood that if Qiao Xingnian moved to Fuguiyuan Community, it would definitely arouse Jiang Mohan's suspicion.

And it would attract people to gossip, so comparing the two, it was the best choice for him to move to the neighborhood where Qiao Xingnian lived.

"Ayue, if we don't leave, it will be dawn."

Only then did Lin Nanyue start the car and slowly drove out of the police station.

The next morning, Qiao Xingnian came to the teahouse, picked up Liu Meng, and took a taxi to the shopping mall together.

"What are you going to buy?"

Liu Meng smiled mysteriously and said, "The boss just follow me."

"Mysterious." Qiao Xingnian smiled helplessly, and followed Liu Meng in the shopping mall.

The two went straight to the fifth floor and stopped in front of a shop specializing in hand-made figures.

Liu Meng smiled and said, "It's here."

This was a bit unexpected to Qiao Xingnian, and he said, "Buyer?"

"Well, Lin Yi's favorite thing is to collect figures. Does the boss usually play games?"

"I haven't played a game for a long time, only when I was a student, maybe it's because I'm old."

"It has nothing to do with age. Many elderly people still play mobile games now. Let's go, I'll take you in and have a look. Many of them are characters from anime or games. I'll introduce you by the way so that you don't get caught up. of the last era."

Qiao Xingnian was amused, and followed Liu Meng into the small shop.

There are many figures in the cabinets inside, and each cabinet has a different theme. Liu Meng explained to Qiao Xingnian one by one.

There are very few people who don't like cute things, and Qiao Xingnian is no exception. He said, "It's really cute and delicate. Which one does Lin Yi like?"

"Lin Yi likes mobile game figurines." Liu Meng pointed to the cabinet in front of him and said, "Here, that's it. She has collected a lot now, but there is one thing she has not grabbed. I ordered it online. Today Come get the goods."

"Reservation? Where did you get the money?"

"Borrowed from Nanzhou." When Liu Meng said this, his face turned slightly red.

Qiao Xingnian smiled and said, "How much did you borrow?"

"Not much, just 200 yuan."

"Okay, when Nanzhou comes to the store, I'll pay it back for you."

Liu Meng summoned the waiter and said, "Hi, I ordered Diao Chan's figurines before, and now I'm here to get them."

"Please go to the counter to check the reservation information."

"it is good."

When the two came to the counter, Liu Meng said the phone number and name of the reservation.

The store manager took out a beautifully packaged paper box, put it on the table, and said, "This is the figurine you ordered. The price is 588 yuan. You paid a deposit of 200 yuan, and you need to pay 388 yuan."

Qiao Xingnian took out his mobile phone to scan the QR code to pay. Liu Meng opened the box and inspected the product. After confirming that it was correct, the store manager issued a receipt.

The two were about to leave with their things, when Qiao Xingnian suddenly saw a figure at the counter. It looked like a tough guy with a cute expression, and it looked a bit like Lin Nanyue.

"I bought this."

Tomorrow is the weekend again, it's time to work hard, cheer for me!
