The community where Teng Cuo lived was in the city center, close to the business district. Lan Die only sent him downstairs and handed over the access control and keys to him.Teng Cuo has lived abroad for ten years, and now he moves back to China with only one luggage bag, which he directly carries upstairs.

Before he left, he threw the sunglasses back to Lan Die, and waved his hand.

He would not ask Lan Die about his upcoming itinerary, even if he did, he would not tell him, just like what Mr. Chen said, back to back is the rule of the "garden".

The apartment is on the top floor, a duplex, and there is a car parked in the basement.The house is spacious and tidy, with one bedroom and two living rooms on the first floor. There are not many but complete furniture, and the wine cabinet in the restaurant is also full.The overall tone is quite cold, just black, white and gray, and the floor-to-ceiling windows are very beautiful.

Teng went in by mistake and didn't stay on the first floor. There was a door at the end of the stairs leading to the second floor, and he unlocked it with his fingerprints.

The doors are heavy and bulletproof.

Teng Cuo pushed open the door with some difficulty, revealing the laboratory behind.

The room is completely enclosed, without any windows, and the lights are very bright, shining on the iron table and various chemical experiment equipment, the reflected light is cold and dazzling.In the corner was a miniature greenhouse, with two rows of flowers the color of blood, cascading petals on slender green stems.

Teng Cuo squatted in front of the poppies being farmed here and watched for a long time, then opened the luggage bag, which was full of printed materials.He took out all the materials and spread them out on the table without any structure.Then he used his birthday to open the safe on the side, which was very full, and as soon as he opened the door, two bundles of cash fell out.

Teng Cuo raised his eyebrows impatiently, picked up the money and threw it on the table.Then he pushed aside the cash piled up in the drawer, revealing what was behind.

Several pistols, several grenades, countless magazines and knives, and a box more than one meter long inside.Teng Cuo took it out and opened it for a look. It was a brand new M21 sniper rifle.

Teng Cuo smiled with satisfaction, and without touching the money and the gun, he picked a butterfly knife from the pile of knives and put it in his trouser pocket.

There was still something in his luggage bag. Teng closed the safe by mistake, leaving a messy table of documents and cash behind him, and went downstairs with his bag.He went into the bedroom and emptied the rest of the bag onto the bedside table.A coat wrapped in a pile of western medicines fell out, Teng mistakenly looked at the time, found a bottle of those medicines and took two pills.

Then he took a shower, changed his clothes and went out.

As long as it is in a bustling area, Yufang City at night is more colorful than during the day.Teng mistakenly parked his car on the side of the street. This is a gathering place for nocturnal animals. It is not yet eleven o'clock, and the nearby blocks are already feasting.

The bar Teng Cuo is going to is called "Maoyan". He is a man and likes men, and Maoyan is a suitable place for him and his kind to have fun. This place is very famous, and Teng Cuo knew it before he went abroad.He walked through the long corridor into the bar, and two or three customers walked behind him, surprisingly high-quality, and kept talking in low voices amid the deafening music.

The singers in the bar were singing rock and roll, and the colorful lights surrounded the bright areas while separating the dark corners.Teng Cuo went straight to the bar and asked the waiter for a glass of spirits.

While waiting for the drinks, he turned around boredly, and saw the people who came in behind him just now found an empty table in the corner by the door and were looking at the wine list.They didn't seem to be very familiar with each other, and they didn't talk much after sitting around.Two boys who looked like they were dancing professionally here ran over to sit down, but several refused.

Teng misread them for a while, then lost interest, and turned back to staring at the bartender pouring him drinks.He changed into a shirt, still black, but much softer than the daytime one. The neckline was wide open, revealing the deep collarbone and snow-white smooth skin below.

The bartender pushed the wine over and was nervous when he and Teng looked at each other wrongly.Teng Cuo drank the wine in one gulp, his eyes looked over the top of the glass, the corners of the eyes were well curved, and the pupils were slightly illuminated by the light swept by the light ball, very bright.

Stared at by such a pair of eyes, the bartender shook his hand, and some ice cubes were not caught, and fell to the table.He was going to pick it up, but Teng Cuo stretched out his hand first.

The beautiful fingertips touched the ice for a while until they were a little red from the cold.Then Teng pinched the ice cube by mistake, stuck out the tip of his tongue like a small animal, and put it on.

There are rules in the bar, bartenders and waiters are not allowed to chat with customers, but Teng Cuo is an irresistible temptation.Most of the people who come to Maoyan are men. There are also those who want to catch girls, and there are not a few who come to hunt for beauty. Teng Cuo, with his appearance and clothes, comes alone. In the eyes of people, he is the one who can seduce people the most. "Yan".

The bartender opened his mouth mysteriously, wanting to ask Teng Cuo if he was alone, and also wanted to invite Teng Cuo to have a drink.In fact, he was still holding the wine glasses of other guests with one hand, but he couldn't take care of it anymore.

However, someone from the side suddenly squeezed over, leaning against Teng Cuo leaning on the bar.Teng Cuo moved his eyes away, but the bartender didn't strike up a conversation.

The person who just came here was dressed very neatly, wearing a white short-sleeved shirt and light-colored jeans, with one button undone on his chest. He was very tender, with delicate features, and looked like a student.He may have been drunk, fell on Teng Cuo's shoulder, and didn't stand up for a long time.

He looked up at Teng Cuo, a little lost in thought, and the word "amazing" flashed in his eyes.The man was still crooked, and Teng Cuo didn't help him, just propped his head up and looked at him.

It took a while for the boy to stand up on his own, and he smiled at Teng Cuo, showing two small canine teeth, and said flatteringly, "Brother."

Teng Cuo lowered his eyes and smiled when he heard this address. The boy didn't flinch when he saw that he didn't speak, so he leaned forward and said, "Brother, did you come here by yourself?"

Teng Cuo raised his eyebrows and said, "Yes."

The boy puffed his chest out to him, and said generously, "My name is Xiao Zhuang, brother, do you want to dance?"

The name didn't sound real at first sight, Teng Cuo shook the glass, and the ice cubes in it jingled.He said slowly, "No jumping."

His eyes slid down Xiao Zhuang's face, stayed there for a long time at the neckline, and then turned up suddenly, making Xiao Zhuang blush a little.Teng Cuo leaned over freely, put it close to Xiao Zhuang's ear, and said, "But I can do something else."

Xiao Zhuang probably didn't expect him to be so direct, his eyes were a little astonished, and his hands were repeatedly adjusting the collar of his shirt.Teng Cuo took out his wallet, pulled out a stack of cash and put it in his hand, saying: "No whoring, no illegal things, please drink a glass of wine."

Xiao Zhuang's eyes were a little straight, and all the cleverness he had just now suddenly disappeared, and he held back for a long time without speaking.Teng Cuo didn't give him a chance to continue in a daze, put down his crossed legs, stood up and said, "Let's go."

"Where are you going?" Xiao Zhuang didn't move, and asked, "Isn't it...drinking?"

Teng Cuo didn't speak. He was actually a little taller than Xiao Zhuang. He raised his hand and gently wrapped Xiao Zhuang's shoulders.Xiao Zhuang followed him stumblingly, and didn't take the money from the bar.

When passing by the table by the door, Teng Cuo glanced down. The bottles of wine on the table were deserted, and it seemed that there was no atmosphere of drinking. One guest was even looking at his mobile phone all the time.

Teng Cuo laughed presumptuously, and everyone at the table looked up at him with frowns.Teng made mistakes and took Xiao Zhuang out.

He didn't go out either. There were already two couples in the hallway who were kissing face to face. Teng Cuo found a corner at the other end, right next to the gate, and he could hear the sounds of cars and people on the street.He pushed Xiao Zhuang against the wall, and then stuck it up himself.

The ever-changing lights illuminate the extremely aesthetic facial features, which are slightly distorted under the light and shadow, and at the same time more alluring. The unmodified silhouette perfectly balances softness and sharpness, exuding a charming neutrality.Teng Cuo approached slowly, and Xiao Zhuang's shoulders were completely attached to the wall. He silently clenched his fists behind his back, thinking about what to do next.

The two looked at each other closely, and Xiao Zhuang realized that there was no desire or any other emotion in Teng Cuo's eyes.A straightforward indifference emanates from it, making people feel at a loss.

Xiao Zhuang puffed out his chest, trying to regain the initiative.

Teng Cuo lowered his eyes and raised his hands, as if to unbutton him.Xiao Zhuang's body tensed in an instant, Teng Cuo's fingertips rested on his shirt, and asked, "Do you have a certificate?"

"Ah? Certificate..." Xiao Zhuang was confused for a moment, then reacted, and said with a smile: "Do you have a health certificate? Yes, yes, brother."

"No." Teng Zuo laughed and said softly, "I'm talking about a police officer's card."

Xiao Zhuang's face changed in an instant, and then he realized that there was no need to continue pretending or defending at this time. The fighting instinct prompted him to raise his arms, but Teng Cuo's hands had already reached his neckline.Xiao Zhuang's body froze for a second, and Teng Cuo's thin white fingers moved nimbly, and quickly took off the miniature camera stuck behind his button.

Teng Cuo studied it with interest for a while, then raised his head and said to Xiao Zhuang, "Trouble."

His other hand quietly went around Xiao Zhuang's waist, and after a while of groping, he took out Xiao Zhuang's cell phone.He casually threw away the camera, and at the same time turned on the camera in Xiao Zhuang's mobile phone, and said, "If you want to know what I look like, just tell me, what circle around?"

He then smiled for the camera and saved a crisp selfie.

"Okay." He readily returned the phone to Xiao Zhuang and asked, "Little handsome guy, is there anything else I need?"

The young policeman, whose real name is Lu Haoyang, who goes by the pseudonym Xiao Zhuang, is still in a daze.Not long after he joined the police force, it was the first time he had a mission like this, and it was also the first time he encountered such an approaching object.Teng Cuo's disguise was so good that the revelation just now was sudden, and Teng Cuo knew exactly what he wanted, which made Lu Haoyang shudder.

Heavy footsteps came from the other side of the corridor, and the guests who were sitting by the door just now walked out quickly.Teng Cuo glanced sideways, smiled at Lu Haoyang, and said, "Your colleague is here."

Lu Haoyang exchanged glances with several other members of the police force, and they were all shocked.Just now, the camera on Lu Haoyang's body was suddenly taken off and thrown away. The person in charge of monitoring thought something had happened, but when he came out, he saw Teng wrongly pressing Xiao Lu against the wall, a very ambiguous scene.

A few people stood in the middle of the corridor, neither advancing nor retreating.Teng Cuo backed away from Lu Haoyang and said, "The midnight show has begun, sorry."

As he walked back to the bar, he passed a few policemen and waved smartly.

The policemen looked at each other suspiciously, and one of them wanted to catch up, but was held back by his colleagues.Lu Haoyang showed the photos on his cell phone to several other people, and a policeman with a headset told the situation, then tilted his head to listen for a while, and then gestured to several people, saying: "Team Thunder, let's take it first."

***

Half an hour later, the lights in the office of the Second Criminal Investigation Detachment of Yufang City Public Security Bureau turned on.In front of a movable whiteboard with wheels underneath, Lu Haoyang took the photo of Teng Cuo that had just been printed out and handed it to the detachment leader Jue Ting.

On the top of the whiteboard next to them was written the word "Garden" and a few photos were pasted below, with many arrows drawn in the middle to indicate the relationship.The person at the top is Mr. Chen, but the position of the photo is replaced by a question mark. Among the people below are Lan Die and Teng Cuo. These two people have photos, but they are very blurry.

The background of Teng Cuo's photo was abroad. The man in the photo had long hair and was sitting on a park bench with his eyes closed as if he was asleep.

Jue Ting took the freshly released selfie tonight from Lu Haoyang, and pinned it to the blurry one.Then he took a step back with folded arms and nodded slightly.

"Team Ting," Lu Haoyang said next to him, "I didn't complete the task tonight, I'm sorry."

He just graduated from the police academy this year. He is a young man who is full of energy and loves to talk and laugh.But now Teng Cuo saw through, and the young man couldn't even raise his head.

Jue Ting turned to look at him, smiled, pointed to Teng Cuo's photo, and said, "The task this time is to confirm the identity, and now not only has it been confirmed, but such a clear photo has been taken back, which is considered overfulfilled."

Jue Ting is 31 years old this year. He is slender and gentle. He also has a personality. He is humble and polite in his work unit. He never curses. He rarely even speaks loudly. A criminal investigation team leader, which office director should be believed more.He is not stingy about using newcomers in the team, and he will not blush when he makes a mistake or fails in a mission, but the more he does this, the more Xiao Lu feels guilty.

"That person saw through my identity," he said to Jue Ting, "it was my negligence."

"It's okay." Jue Ting shook his head with a smile, turned around and looked at the overly pretty face in the photo for a while, and then read the suspect's information below again.Lu Haoyang followed his gaze and read it too.

"Teng Cuo, male, 26 years old, with unknown background, a genius in chemistry and pharmaceuticals, studied abroad for nine years in a famous university abroad, obtained a double degree in chemistry and bioengineering, and then studied in the Department of Chemistry at this school. He just graduated this spring , was hired back to China with a high salary by the Yuefang City Pharmaceutical Research Institute. During his stay abroad, this person came out publicly, often went to sensual venues, and behaved perversely and violently. It is now suspected that he has close contacts with the criminal group named 'Garden'."

"We've been lacking photos of this person before," Jue Ting said after reading it, "Now we have it, not bad."

Lu Haoyang felt a little guilty, and said, "Team Ting, this photo was, he took it for me on his own initiative."

"I know, but no matter what," Jue Ting said encouragingly, "this can be considered a breakthrough."

Lu Haoyang nodded, feeling a little better.He looked at the whiteboard for a long time, and suddenly said, "There should be another word in this description."

Jue Ting asked: "What?"

"About appearance, it's just..." Lu Haoyang hesitated for a moment. In fact, he didn't need to describe his appearance in the information when he had a photo, but he had just had close contact with Teng Cuo in half an hour, and he was really impressed. .He said: "It looks very neutral, er, it's a little bit more than neutral."

He made Jue Ting laugh, and taught him a lesson: "Which one should be more respectful when speaking."

"No disrespect, it's him, really, he looks so good-looking." Lu Haoyang pointed up to Teng Cuo's photo on the whiteboard, and couldn't bear it anymore, turned his face away, and said to Duel Ting: "Team Ting, look, those eyes, Long eyelashes, face shape, and skin... well, how should I put it, it’s a bit too much. If it weren’t for his gender male on the passport page we took from the customs, I would definitely see it at first glance Think of it as a girl. But he is not a girl at all, just..."

Jue Ting couldn't stand the nagging, so he summed it up: "A man's body looks like a woman's."

His four words made Xiao Lu nod vigorously, they were so incisive.

Jue Ting changed his serious tone and said, "But it doesn't matter what he looks like, as long as we have photos that can be identified systematically and manually. The focus of solving the case is not anyone's appearance, so don't misplace the focus."

"Understood!" Lu Haoyang immediately became serious, stood at attention, and said loudly, "I remember, Team Thunder!"

Jue Ting smiled helplessly and gestured for the child to relax.Then he continued to turn back to look at the whiteboard, thinking, "This is kind of weird."

Lu Haoyang was very focused, pricking up his ears to listen carefully.

Jue Ting said: "Yufang City has a huge population density, and the distribution of wealth is polarized. Crimes are rampant in places where the sun does not shine. Drug production, drug trafficking, smuggling, and human trafficking have formed a complex market. Crimes will not stop breeding. However, Xiao Lu, you have to remember that justice will never stop fighting. Countless policemen have devoted themselves to this uninterruptedly. It is countless heroes and loyal souls who carry us and enable us to stand here today. Some of them can’t even leave their names. But inheritance will never disappear, and the meaning of our existence and struggle today is inheritance and dedication.”

Xiao Lu stood up straight with a very solemn expression.

Judgment paused for a while, and then continued: "Yufang City's anti-drug and criminal investigation are very powerful. In the past few decades, after suppressing and chaotic gang fights, the criminal group called 'Garden' finally became the leader. Its leader, Mr. Chen, has established a huge drug trafficking and smuggling network. The gang has extremely strong anti-reconnaissance capabilities and has its own armed forces. These people act extremely low-key, and there will be no rescue after being arrested. Existing evidence shows that , They are trying to develop new drugs, which may also be the real reason for Teng Cuo to return to China."

He half-closed his eyes and said in thought: "But if Teng Cuo is really a member of 'Garden', it is absolutely impossible for him to take such a selfie for you."

"Is it possible," Lu Haoyang guessed, "Teng was hired by 'Garden' by mistake, not an internal member."

"This possibility is not ruled out," Jue Ting nodded, and said, "Although the location has not been determined, we already know that 'Garden' has its own research and development base, which is likely to be overseas. The last time the anti-drug brigade followed that drug dealer to destroy The safe house in the city center is just the tip of the iceberg. If Teng was wrongly employed by Mr. Chen, why did he go to work in Yufang City?"

No one can answer this question now, Lu Haoyang pursed his lips and stopped talking.Jue Ting didn't stand still, and said to Lu Haoyang while walking to his office: "You go back first, I will come up with other plans for the advancement of this matter."

"Ah?" Lu Haoyang was a little stupid, and couldn't help chasing after the Thunder team, asking a series of questions: "You, you want to send other people to the bar to be that, um, duck? Who else is in our team?" The temperament is right? Hey, I didn't mean that I have the right temperament! Team Thunder?"

"Did I tell someone to go undercover as a duck?" Jue Ting couldn't bear it anymore, turned around at the door of the office, and asked, "It's about the strategic deployment of the investigation. Is this what you should care about?"

"No!" Xiao Lu immediately braked on the spot, stood up in a military posture, and said, "I'm sorry, Team Thunder!"

Jue Ting shook his head with a smile and said, "Go home."

After watching the young man go out to Jue Ting before closing the door, he propped his arms on a table of files, sighed wearily, and said to himself: "I am afraid that only one person can do this thing close to Teng Cuo. "
