After he left his towel in the convenience store, his sense of responsibility drove him to rush towards the smell of blood.
The distance is further than Lu Ning imagined.
Turn east and west, passing through small paths.
There are fewer and fewer street lights and it is getting darker and darker.
Finally, he saw a figure lying on the ground next to a hidden trash can.
He stepped forward and saw that it was a man. The man was covered in blood and his breathing was weak.
‘Oops, it’s too late.’
Lu Ning immediately took out his cell phone and started calling the police, hoping that the other party could be saved.
The police arrived soon after, followed closely by an ambulance.
As the first person to discover and report the crime, Lu Ning was naturally questioned by the police. When Lu Ning saw it, he turned out to be an acquaintance, the same criminal policeman who handled the stabbing incident on the street yesterday.
Lu Ning still remembers that the other person's last name seems to be Chen.
Officer Chen obviously recognized Lu Ning. It happened less than two days ago. As a criminal police officer, his memory is always very good.
"Why is it you again."
"Do you know this victim?"
"Did you see the murderer committing the crime?"
Officer Chen kept asking.
"Yes, what a coincidence. I happened to pass by here. I only saw this man lying here covered in blood. I didn't see the murderer."
"As soon as I saw him, I immediately called the police." Lu Ning answered from the perspective of an ordinary passerby.
Naturally, it is impossible for him to say that he came here based on the smell of blood.
This time, Officer Chen did not take Lu Ning to the police station to take notes. After questioning him, he left a phone number for him, and then explained: "I may ask you to assist in the investigation later, and I will contact you by phone. If you remember anything,
You can also call me."
"Okay."
Lu Ning nodded.
When leaving, he looked at the other police officers who were checking on the side, and his powerful hearing allowed him to hear the conversation between them. He learned that before the attack, the victim had just gone to withdraw money, and the murderer had followed him all the way, and no one was there when he arrived.
I moved my hands only after entering the alley.
Alas, he is an unlucky person.
Lu Ning returned along the original path.
When passing a three-way intersection, he suddenly stopped.
He sniffed his nose, turned suddenly, and walked into the small alley next to him. He moved a little cautiously, checking his surroundings from time to time, then walked forward for a while and then suddenly accelerated.
Finally, he stopped in front of a trash can.
Just now, his nose smelled the blood of the attacker. How is this possible?
Could it be that the murderer was infected?
Very likely.
So he followed the smell and chased it. He originally thought he would meet the murderer, but he didn't expect it to be a trash can.
This trash can was obviously used by nearby residents to throw domestic garbage. It was filled with water and had an extremely pungent smell.
Lu Ning did not just leave. Instead, he rummaged inside and soon found a bloody glove and a dagger.
Good guy, he found the murder weapon!
The murderer is also a bit cunning. If you throw this in the trash can, it will probably be recycled into the garbage dump in less than a day.
It was a pair of cotton gauze gloves and a dagger less than 30 centimeters. In addition to the smell of the attacker's blood, Lu Ning also smelled the smell of another stranger. It also obviously contained some sweat gland secretions from the murderer.
He could not help but silently record this smell in his mind.
Lu Ning hesitated for a moment, considering whether to call Police Chen. There might be fingerprints on the dagger. But after thinking about it, he quickly gave up the idea.
"No, there is no reason."
He didn't touch these two things with his hands, and threw the gloves and dagger into the trash can again through a plastic bag.
I think with the police's ability to solve crimes, the search will be here soon.
----------
Inside the hotel.
"Why did it take you so long? Is it because this is the first time I helped someone buy this thing?"
Lin Meiqi thought Lu Ning was there because she was shy.
Lu Ning didn't explain too much. He gave her a look and said, "What do you think?"
It made her giggle again.
----------
The next day.
Because Lin Meiqi's legs haven't healed yet, her original plan was ruined.
“I originally wanted to see the ice waterfall, it’s so beautiful.”
Lu Ning could only accompany her in the hotel.
Thinking of what happened last night.
He added WeChat using the number given by Officer Chen and inquired about the progress of the case.
Originally, he had no hope, because the police generally would not disclose the progress of cases under investigation to outsiders. But what he didn't expect was that Officer Chen directly sent him a photo.
The photo shows a man in his forties, with a slender face and short hair.
At first glance, he doesn’t look like a good person.
The police's investigation efficiency was faster than he imagined, and the suspect's identity was identified in just one night.
According to Officer Chen, the suspect had just been released from prison at the end of last year and arrived in the city in January. Unexpectedly, he had committed another major crime - the man who was stabbed last night was dead after resuscitation failed. And now there is evidence that the other party killed more than one person, it was simply audacious.
The suspect's photos and information have been sent to stations, airports and various hotels and hostels.
The local TV station will also release wanted news later.
It can be said that it is only a matter of time before he is arrested.
Officer Chen also told Lu Ning that if she saw the suspect, don't be impulsive and call the police, or call him directly.
"Okay."
Lu Ning naturally agreed.
In Lu Ning's view, after confirming the identity of the suspect, it is a certainty that the murderer will be caught.
Our country’s police are not vegetarians.
He no longer took this matter to heart.
But what Lu Ning didn't expect was that he would meet the suspect before he was arrested.
-------------
Lin Meiqi recuperated in the hotel for two days. After she could get off the road, she shouted to go home. She felt that it was too cold here and not fun.
"I still have something to do, so I'll go back in a few days."
Lu Ning was still thinking about his experiment, so naturally he couldn't go back with her.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading!
"No wonder you came here as soon as you opened your mouth. Are you here to meet your little lover?"
Lin Meiqi's eyes narrowed slightly, like Conan who had learned the truth.
"I'm with you on Valentine's Day. How can I have a little lover? Are you jealous?"
Lu Ning smiled.
"Bah, who is jealous?"
Lin Meiqi spat at him.
Lu Ning sent Lin Meiqi to the airport and watched her board the plane.
Then he started to take the car to his original destination-Mozhen.

---------
Mozhen belongs to Linji County, Heijiang Province.
Linji County belongs to the Daxinganling Region of Heijiang Province. It is located in the northern part of Heijiang Province. It is adjacent to Ergun City, Helbe City, NMG Autonomous Region to the west, Genhe City and Huzhong District, NMG Autonomous Region to the south, and Tahe County to the east. , across the Heijiang River to the north and facing Russia's Transbaikal Territory and Amur Oblast, it is the northernmost county-level administrative region in my country.
According to the seventh census data, as of 0:00 on November 1, 2020, the permanent population of Linji County is people.
There are only so many people in one county. It can be seen that although this place is vast, most people don't like to stay here because of the bad weather.
Because the climate here is very low all year round, it is simply a hell on earth.
Even traveling in winter is difficult.
But what’s interesting is the way people here buy food. Do you think they won’t do business or buy food in such a cold weather?
No, they still sell it.
It’s just that the way they sell it is different.
Passing by a vegetable market, Lu Ning saw that each of them would build a very large plastic shed outside, and then put a very hot stove inside, so that they could sell vegetables in Dapeng.
After Lu Ning took several more trains, he finally arrived at his destination - Mo Town.
After arriving here, he turned on his mobile phone and took a look.
Yes, it’s already minus 35°.
However, although the permanent population here is small, some tourism projects have also been developed.
Lu Ning also knew about it before coming here.
There are two natural wonders in Mozhen, namely "White Night" and "Northern Lights".
Hidden deep in the Daxing'an forest area, the northernmost location in our country, the Heijiang River flows through it, and Russia is on the other side of the river. The weather here has turned dark early in the morning, and Lu Ning is not used to it.
He found a hotel and checked in first. He took out his cell phone and saw that the signal was intermittent.
Naturally, he couldn't bring his mobile phone with him when he went to experiment with cold resistance in the ice and snow. Before, he just took out his mobile phone and looked at it a few times, but the battery dropped so much that he almost shut down the phone.
---------
At night.
Outside the quiet village after dark, a person is walking on the snow.
Every foot sinks deeply into the snow.
At this time, the outside world is covered with ice and snow, and the wind is biting. The only beautiful scenery is the stars in the sky above.
I have to say that the starry sky here is really beautiful, like a dream.
As the large tracts of virgin birch forest disappeared behind him and there were no people around, Lu Ning began to move faster, and every step he took was several meters away. If his sight was not so good, he might have covered a hundred meters in one step. After running for an unknown amount of time, Lu Ning stopped.
He began to take off his clothes. At such a low temperature, the clothes became as hard as sharp pieces of paper.
After taking off his clothes, pants and shoes, Lu Ning only left his underwear on and lay directly in the snow.
Snowflakes were floating in the sky, and he was buried within a short time.
Originally, he planned to lie here all night, but late at night, he was woken up by a familiar smell.
It’s the smell of the murderer!
And it was accompanied by a strong smell of blood.
