mysterious him

Saying goodbye to Teacher Xue's house, I finally got into work, and I didn't need to drive. I walked to Qingyue No. 10 Middle School in [-] minutes. First, I called a few teachers who had a lot of contact with Xu Dong for routine questioning.

The content of the question was not as much as what Xue Zheng said just now. No one wanted to cause trouble for themselves.

Then they meet Seo Dong's parents.

Within a few days, the two elders, white-haired and black-haired, looked older, but still cooperated. Zhang Xiaoxin was in charge of questioning, mostly Xu's mother answered, and Xu's father smoked one cigarette after another, with a solemn expression on his face.

"Dong'er has been living with us all the time. If he doesn't come home, he will usually say hello in advance. He didn't come back on the night of the 10th, and we couldn't get through on the phone. I thought he was going crazy somewhere. On the second day, I found out that he didn't come to school. , I looked for it with his father, but I couldn’t find it after searching for a day. On the 13th, I immediately went to the police station to report. , "Then when was the last time you saw him?"

"On the morning of the 10th, I fed him a boiled egg before he went to work."

"There is no news from him after this?"

"Gone."

"Has he had any feud with anyone recently?"

Xu's mother strongly denied: "Our family has been well-behaved since childhood, and has never blushed with anyone, and will not make enemies with others!" She became excited again, and grabbed Zhang Xiaoxin's hand: "Officer, you must hurry up and arrest him!" To the murderer! My poor innocent child!"

"..." Bai Yang folded his arms and leaned against the back of the chair, completely unwilling to cooperate with the performance, "Auntie is harassing your son on the Internet..."

Before she finished speaking, Mother Xu seemed to be stimulated, she stood up and pointed at Bai Yang, loudly saying, "It must be that guy named Xue!"

Zhang Xiaoxin and Bai Yang had guessed what she was going to say next.

"The man named Xue Zheng, he spread rumors to slander my son, and he even scolded my son in front of the director. He was just jealous that my son was better than him. Police officer, you should investigate him! My son was killed by him! Him!" Madam Xu seemed to have caught some life-saving straw, her eyes were wide open, she looked crazy, on the verge of collapse.

Xu's father on the side finally couldn't bear it, he pinched his cigarette, got up and dragged her away.

Bai Yang knew how a scum like Xu Dong was raised. With this kind of spoiled and spoiled mother who doesn't know right from wrong, even the best seedlings will grow crooked.

The interrogation yielded nothing, so it was rare for Zhang Xiaoxin to take the initiative to talk to Bai Yang: "If you continue to interrogate with personal feelings, you don't have to be with me."

Sure enough, it's not a good word.

"I'm just asking her opinion on the news, where's the personal feeling?" Bai Yang didn't care, and deliberately muttered: "It's a big deal, I won't talk later. Don't get angry at me if you can't find any clues..."

Zhang Xiaoxin looked at Bai Yang: "How old are you this year?"

Bai Yang didn't expect him to ask such a question, and he was stunned for a moment before replying: "Three years younger than you, 27. Why?"

Zhang Xiaoxin suddenly spit out two words: "No wonder." No wonder he didn't say anything.

The two also wanted to see the "Dean of Academic Affairs", but were told that the other party was recuperating at home, and the illness was quite punctual.In order to protect those girls, they did not question them at school, and planned to send female police officers to their homes for questioning.

The school didn't gain anything, so the two of them decided to go to the scene to have a look.At the gate of Qingyue No. [-] Middle School, Zhang Xiaoxin stopped for a long time, his nostalgia mixed with sadness.

The first place they went was Nanhu Bridge Cave.

There is a mountain in Qingyue County called Nanshan, and a large lake at the foot of Nanshan is called Nanhu. From a distance, it looks like a "mountain on the water". With the afterglow of the setting sun, it is as beautiful as a painting.The water of the South Lake flows to more than a dozen narrow and long rivers nearby, and the bridge on the river is narrow. Xu Dong's body was stuck in the small river more than five kilometers away from Nanshan, and the appearance of being picked up was horrible.

Walking along the small river for more than ten minutes, you can see the vast lake at the foot of Nanshan Mountain. The breeze is blowing on your face, making you feel refreshed. If you don't come to investigate the case, Bai Yang doesn't mind spending half a day here.

After driving slowly by the lake for a while, Zhang Xiaoxin didn't know what he thought of, "Let's go, let's go down to the foot of the mountain."

The "foot of the mountain" he said is not under the mountain gate on the south side of the front, but on the back of the mountain on the north side. That area is still under development. After the road is opened, a small park is first put into use. There are still some people at night, except for passing cars during the day , basically invisible.

It was dusk, and the residents who came for a walk to enjoy the shade hadn't been dispatched yet, and they were the only ones in the small park, which was surprisingly quiet.

After getting out of the car, Zhang Xiaoxin walked towards the edge of the small park, and the lake was below.

"You..." Before Bai Yang could ask a question, he saw Zhang Xiaoxin take off his sports coat neatly, leaning on the wooden fence post with his hands, leaping vigorously, jumping into the lake with a plop, and disappeared!

Bai Yang immediately rushed forward, and saw that the ripples on the lake slowly recovered, and Zhang Xiaoxin had already dived to the bottom.After waiting for more than a minute and no one appeared, I couldn't help feeling a little anxious, took off my shoes and prepared to jump down to have a look.

"Wow!" Zhang Xiaoxin got out of the water, the water near the shore was not too deep, he could barely stand up, and threw it hard towards the shore, Bai Yang didn't care what he threw, and quickly climbed outside the guardrail to pull him , After holding hands, I was a little relieved: "Don't you have common sense? If you don't warm up before diving, your feet will cramp under the water and you will die!"

"I'm fine... ha... chirp!" It was still a bit cold in May, and Zhang Xiaoxin sneezed several times as soon as he came up, he went to the car to get the evidence bag, and put the things he threw up just now into it .

Only then did Bai Yang see clearly that it was a hemp rope.

"I hope the DNA can be detected." Zhang Xiaoxin wrapped his sports coat tightly, and threw the car keys to Bai Yang: "I'll give you the car, and you send the physical evidence back to the bureau. I'll take a taxi home by myself."

Home?That's right, Zhang Xiaoxin's hometown is in Qingyue County.

Sure enough, Bai Yang sat in the driver's seat, and put his coat on Zhang Xiaoxin: "I'll take you back first, and then I'll deliver the physical evidence."

On the way back, the exchanges between the two gradually increased.

"That park is indeed a good place to dump the corpse." Bai Yang glanced at the wet Zhang Xiaoxin, and silently accelerated his speed, "But how can you be sure that it must be there?"

Zhang Xiaoxin wiped his hair with the towel on the car, and explained: "The river where the body was found is on the southeast side of the mountain, and if the body is thrown from the front of the mountain, according to the distribution of the river, it will definitely not float to that position, but from the back of the mountain." It is possible to dump the body, I remembered that there was a small park there, so I wanted to try my luck."

Bai Yang said unhappily: "Why do some murderers always think that throwing the corpse | the murder weapon into the water together can cover up the crime?" The car drove fast, and it didn't take long to arrive at the old residential building. Bai Yang found that his house had left The garden area where the prisoners threw their bodies is not far away.

Zhang Xiaoxin had already taken two steps, but he came back and told him, "I'm going to visit the Huayuan District first. After you return to the bureau, you can rest for a while. The task force has to meet tonight."

After speaking, he rushed into the building in three or two steps. It was probably cold, and it was funny to look at it trembling. At this time, Bai Yang realized that the sky was completely dark, and the sky was dotted with scattered stars. There was a window on the third floor. light is on.

Bai Yang got out of the car, leaned against the car door, and saw a small flower vendor in the distance, and occasionally couples stopped, he thought badly, what would happen if he bought a bouquet of roses and knocked on Zhang Xiaoxin's door now, so he subconsciously I wanted to get my wallet in the lining pocket of my suit, but found that the clothes were on Zhang Xiaoxin...

After waiting for more than ten minutes, Wei Ran finally came, "Team Bai, is there anything new? Where is this? I'll find it soon!"

Bai Yang handed over the physical evidence to him: "Take the murder weapon found by Team Zhang, take it back for inspection."

Wei Ran ignorantly took the transparent evidence bag solemnly, and asked: "Then... why are you here?" Naturally, he was persuaded by Bai Yang's ruthless eyes, "I... I'll go first, you can do it yourself! "Then he ran away without a trace.

Bai Yang glanced at the flower stall, dismissed the strange thought, and walked upstairs.

Zhang Xiaoxin hastily rushed into the shower, was wearing a towel and was wiping his hair when the doorbell rang suddenly, and when he opened it, Bai Yang leaned against the door and said lazily, "It's already here, why don't you invite me in for tea?"

"Are you so fast?" He put a towel on his shoulder with one hand, and let the person into the room by the way.

Bai Yang blatantly looked at his naked upper body, and replied naturally: "It's not a wise decision to say 'fast' to a man."

"..." Zhang Xiaoxin rolled his eyes at him, "Wait a minute, I'll put on some clothes."

Bai Yang wandered to the front of the refrigerator, opened it very freely to look for soda to drink, found it was empty, shrugged helplessly, and straightened the faded rainbow magnet when closing the door of the refrigerator.

Then I sat down on the sofa in the living room, and glanced at the tea table. There were all CD cases of Huangmei Opera, such as "Heavenly Match", "Liang Zhu", "Lanqiaohui", "Female Son-in-law", and anyone Bai Yang could name. Everything is available.Those boxes look old, probably a long time ago.Opera is declining day by day, and nowadays there are not many young people who like to listen to opera. Bai Yang can't help but wonder why Zhang Xiaoxin has such a special liking for Huangmei Opera, and even the cat's name is "Huangmei Opera".

Thinking of this, Bai Yang suddenly realized that Zhang Xiaoxin seemed to have only his daily necessities at home.The outside rumors about Zhang Xiaoxin are all about how he solved the case. Bai Yang really doesn't know about his family situation.

Not long after, Zhang Xiaoxin came out of the bedroom and saw him staring at those CD boxes, and explained: "My grandparents liked to watch them when they were still alive, and cats liked to watch them too, so they never put them away."

The cat named "Huangmei Opera" likes to watch Huangmei Opera?

Not wanting to mention the deceased old man, Bai Yang turned to comment on the cat: "Your cat is very unusual."

"Someone said it was psychic."

It was already night, but Zhang Xiaoxin changed into a more formal dress instead, and tied his tie in front of the mirror, as if he didn't do it often, and his movements were very stiff, and he couldn't do it right two or three times.Bai Yang couldn't stand it anymore, and walked up to him, "Let me help you."

Zhang Xiaoxin handed him the tie: "It's troublesome."

"You live alone?" Bai Yang asked tentatively, with skillful movements in his hands.

Zhang Xiaoxin focused on the way he tied his tie, and gave a vague "hmm".

The two were so close that Bai Yang could smell the fragrance from each other's body, as if he had broken through the safety zone, he paused with his fingers, raised his eyes and looked at Zhang Xiaoxin: "Are you gay?"
