Seeing this, He Fei frowned slightly, hesitated for a moment, and then opened the text message thoughtfully. It was still similar to what he had guessed. There was a text message sent by Liu Jian. There were not many words in it, just one sentence:
Please call me back immediately after receiving the message.
As mentioned above, the brief message and short text seemed quite anxious. However, unexpectedly, after browsing the text message, He Fei did not immediately contact Liu Jian as required by the message. Instead, he patiently left the bedroom and rushed to the toilet.
, took a shower, and finally picked up the phone in the guest room to ask for a meal. After a complete meal, He Fei wiped his mouth and took out his cell phone again.
But what was still unexpected was that even after washing up, eating and drinking, and taking out his mobile phone, Liu Jian was not the first person the college student contacted. Instead, he directly dialed his sister's number.
After nearly half a minute of waiting, a rather weak voice of inquiry reached my eardrums through the mobile phone: "Hello? Who is it?"
Hearing the voice, He Fei's heart couldn't help but tighten. Yes, from the voice, he could clearly detect that He Meng's condition seemed to be worse than yesterday. It was true that he was nervous, but at this moment, he had no time to ask for help. He couldn't care about anything else and just used
He said anxiously: "Xiaomeng, I am your brother. Listen, don't say anything or talk about anything now. I want to ask you a question."
It is said that relatives are relatives after all. If strangers need to rely on long-term contact and accumulation of time to understand each other, then as brothers and sisters, He Fei and He Mengke have no need to rely on time.
Well, just based on the habits and hobbies that the two parties have developed since childhood, they can understand the other's meaning in an instant. It is said to be so, but it is also true. As soon as He Fei finished speaking, the other party understood the young man's meaning in an instant, and then very much
Gui Qiao didn't say anything else, just nodded and said yes.
Hearing the reply, He Fei did not dare to neglect, and hurriedly opened his mouth to ask: "Look at your body now. Where has the albino area spread to? Tell me after reading it."
After the words were sent, there was indeed a slight sound on the other end of the phone, mixed with one or two slight coughs. It was obvious that He Meng was struggling to push away the quilt. After waiting for a long time, the girl replied again, thus bringing He Fei.
Here came the terrible news that disturbed his thoughts:
"Brother, I just took a look and the white area has spread from the thigh to the knee."
………
My thoughts are restless, ups and downs, like a sword of Damos hanging above my head. I am always worried and restless.
This was He Fei's first reaction after receiving He Meng's reply. Yes, the reason was just as the other party said. When I observed it yesterday, the white area only reached my sister's thighs. Unexpectedly, it had spread to her knees today, so fast!
It has only been one day. If we continue at this rate, then... the white area will completely cover He Meng's body in three days or even less than three days at the latest. Once that time comes, no one knows what the result will be.
, but there is only one thing that can be said for sure, that is, nine times out of ten, it will be a disaster!
(There are still many things waiting for me later, what should I do? Should I go back? No, I don’t have enough time. I don’t have time to go home and explain to my parents...)
Thinking of this, he quickly broke away from his thoughts. He Fei looked solemn, raised his phone and continued: "Xiaomeng, listen, I am doing an important thing for your illness. Due to time constraints, before the matter is resolved,
I won’t go home. As for the excuses and reasons, it’s up to you to find a way to explain it to my parents for me. Is that okay, Xiaomeng?”
Based on the affirmation of his sister's intelligence, in desperation, the college student simply handed over the task of lying to He Meng to deceive his parents, while he continued to investigate outside.
"Yeah, no problem."
After receiving the other party's answer, He Fei nodded: "Very good, then I will first..."
After explaining the matter, He Fei wanted to end the call. However, for some reason, before he finished speaking, a complicated message came from the other end of the phone: "Brother, I'm sorry, for me, you... forget it, I know now
It's useless to say anything, and I know there's nothing I can do to dissuade you.
, in short, it’s still the same sentence, even now I still don’t ask you what you are doing, let alone what you are going through. The only thing I hope is that if, I mean if, if the situation develops enough to bring you danger
At that point, I hope you will stop immediately!"
Although the girl's voice on the phone was very weak when speaking, there was an undeniable harshness in her ears. After hearing this, He Fei was stunned for a moment, and then smiled at the phone like a coaxing child: "
Haha, Xiaomeng, you are overthinking, don’t worry, there will be no danger at all, um, um, um, I have something else to do, so I’ll hang up first.”
The scene shifts to He Meng's bedroom.
Toot, toot, toot.
Listening to the busy tone from the mobile phone, and seeing the other party actively ending the call, He Meng's face turned pale, her brows slightly furrowed, and then she unconsciously raised her hand to touch her chin.
If you observe carefully, you will find that at this moment, the girl's expression and habitual movements of stroking her chin are almost the same as He Fei's...
Yes, the girl is currently staring at the phone like this. She is very hesitant and entangled. It seems that she wants to call back. It seems so, but... for some reason, after some hesitation, the girl finally gave up.
Slowly put down the phone and turned to look out the window, at the sky. Under the sunlight, the beautiful face was full of worry.
………
In the guest room.
"call!"
Hanging up the phone, he exhaled subconsciously, and He Fei continued busy without stopping. He picked up the phone and dialed again, dialing another series of phone numbers. It was only then that the young man truly entered the topic and shifted to the point, and then dialed Liu Jian.
Telephone.
Not to mention, unlike ordinary police investigations, this criminal police officer is really very efficient. As soon as the number was dialed, only a few seconds later, Liu Jian's anxious and slightly tired voice came straight: "Hey, I
It’s Liu Jian, sir He, right?”
"I'm He Fei. Sorry, I went to bed too late last night. I didn't hear the call you called me at noon."
Out of politeness, after confirming the other party's voice, He Fei first explained the previous phone call. The young man was polite, but unfortunately the other party was not polite at all. Instead, after noticing that the young man was talking nonsense, he interrupted and changed the subject, and then narrated an incident in a solemn tone.
It's a criminal case that happened last night.
"You said two women disappeared last night?".
"Well, yes, just like you, after escaping from 21 High School last night, I went home to sleep because I was too tired. I thought I had nothing to do all night. Unexpectedly, around the early morning, the bureau received two calls to the police.
A woman disappeared last night. I didn’t know about it at first, until today
I learned about this when I went to the bureau at noon. Currently, I have sent police officers to the homes of the two missing women to investigate. Oh, by the way, Chief He, are you free? I hope you can come to the bureau. We
If the director wants to see you, if it's not convenient, I can drive there myself to pick him up."
(The police chief wants to see me?)
As mentioned above, because the other party's request was quite sudden, He Fei was suddenly asked by him. He said he was stunned, but in fact, he started to use his brain and entered a thinking state in an instant.
Silence, silence, silence.
Facing Liu Jian's invitation, He Fei did not speak, and the answer he gave was just silence.
Perhaps he noticed that the other party was hesitating and thinking, and although He Fei remained silent for a long time, Liu Jian was quite patient and just waited in silence without saying a word during the process.
Time passes by second by second, and thoughts condense little by little..
Then……
After some pondering, I wonder if he thought of something from it. Finally, He Fei gave a positive answer: "Okay, I agree to your director's request to meet. As for driving to pick him up, I think it's better to forget it. It's such a small thing. I won't bother.
Captain Liu, I can just take a taxi there myself."
………
20 minutes later.
After ditching the excess fare and thanking the driver profusely, He Fei got out of the car and walked straight forward, striding towards the opposite side, toward the police investigation station a hundred meters away.
To be honest, He Fei was quite hesitant about Liu Jian's invitation at first. The reason is very simple. After all, this is the real world, and there are all kinds of concerns. Taking a step back, even if nothing else is mentioned, just relying on his own
Forging the identity of an investigator is not an aboveboard act. It is true that false evidence can slightly affect the judgment of others, but what if there is a police officer who knows him in the police station?
He is not afraid of being caught. Anyway, when the redemption time is up, he will return to the cursed space. In fact, what really worries him is the series of consequences after being caught. Yes, once he loses his freedom due to being caught, where will he be?
Who can save my sister?
but……
As his thoughts extended and deepened, He Fei gradually got confirmation. It was only after confirming that he had never met any police officer before that the young man finally decided to rush here. As for why he came? The reason is even simpler, that is
Help, everyone knows that there is strength in numbers. How could He Fei turn a blind eye if others know it? He clearly understands that it is much faster to have the assistance of the police than to investigate alone. Combined with the special identity given by the false evidence, the other party suspects
Your own chances can be so small that they can be ignored.
If the above are just general strategies, then the biggest reason that really prompted He Fei to make up his mind to rush to the police station was the plan.
Yes, during the seemingly brief silence of the phone call earlier, the college student quickly constructed a plan, or planned to use the power of the police to do something important!
Let’s get back to the topic, as we arrived at the end and pushed the door open, as soon as we entered the police station, a busy atmosphere hit our face.
Busy, very busy, busy mixed with impatience, impatience mixed with uneasiness. At this moment, the huge hall on the first floor is noisy with people coming and going. Many uniformed police officers, both men and women, are working frequently with serious expressions. Some people
I was at the front desk taking calls, and there were people walking through various offices with documents in hand. From time to time, people rushed to the compound to drive police cars.
, looking like a police officer. Seeing this, He Fei couldn't help but froze, and question marks appeared above his head. He was a little confused as to why the police station was so busy. Even so, he thought about it and was relieved. After all, this is the city police investigation bureau.
The small police stations in villages and towns are completely different. It is normal to have more people. As for why they are in such a hurry? He Fei knows better.
The answer is self-evident, but the root cause comes from the recent series of strange and inexplicable cases. First, thousands of teachers and students in an entire school collectively fell ill with a strange disease. The case has not yet been solved, but unexpectedly, several murders occurred one after another.
, the murder case has not yet begun, and subsequent cases of missing persons have emerged. Each of the cases is serious and vile in nature. In particular, the strange albino disease that has infected thousands of people has directly caused social unrest and panic among the masses. Although He Fei
Don't care much about officials
Market or political issues, but he is very good at thinking from others' perspective. He can still understand how much pressure the city leaders are currently facing. As the saying goes, one level suppresses the other. In order to solve the case as soon as possible and stabilize society, the city leaders will definitely put pressure on the police department.
There is pressure, and the leaders of the police station will definitely do their best to carry out investigations. It is conceivable that even the leaders are overwhelmed. Naturally, it is impossible for the following police investigators to be idle. At the same time, this is why I see such a situation in the police station.
The reason for the busy scene.
(It seems that this incident has caused some waves in society.).
In fact, He Fei's analysis is not only completely correct, strictly speaking, the current situation of the police station is worse than he imagined.
Faced with multiple pressures from all walks of life and superior departments, at this moment, the director in the office on the third floor has not slept well for several days. In the room, he stared at the table and stared at several latest missing case report documents. This year is exactly 50.
year old director
He couldn't help frowning and had a headache. He raised his hand and pinched the center of his eyebrows, and ordered to several subordinates standing opposite: "Sun Bin and his gang have now gone to the homes of Liu Li and Wang Chuanlan, who disappeared last night, to investigate. Now Xiao Zhao
Take someone to the hotel where the missing persons work to investigate."
"clear.".
After receiving the order, Zhao Yong, the deputy leader of the inspection team, saluted with panda eyes and left. After Zhao Yong went out, the director issued orders to the remaining two subordinates in the room. Sure enough, as soon as the order was issued, the other two men also followed suit.
Zhao Yong dragged his tired body and saluted and said goodbye. As most people walked out of the room, in the end, only the director and Liu Jian, who was still standing opposite, were left in the office.
The air was frozen for a moment, and the environment was dead silent. After a while, it was confirmed that there was no one else around. The next moment, Liu Jian went straight to report: "Director, I just received a call. Investigator He has arrived at the bureau and is currently downstairs.
"
"Well, I understand. Tell Xiao Zhou downstairs to invite him over."
Boom, boom, boom.
"Please come in."
Two minutes later, He Fei, dressed casually, walked into the director's office with a calm expression, which was not much different from what he expected. After the two parties met, Liu Jian naturally acted as the intermediary and introduced each party separately. After the introduction, no one was needed.
Reminder, what
Fei took the initiative to shake hands with the director and was polite in a casual manner. The whole process was in order, and all conversations were rigorous and correct. Yes, all He Fei's actions and words were in line with the rules and his identity. No one could see a trace of embarrassment and nervousness in the young man.
Lieutenant-general style.
This is He Fei's strength. In order to disguise himself as much as possible, and in order not to be noticed by the other party, college students have done enough homework before coming, and with the help of their extraordinary memory, they will know all the officialdom they have seen in their lives, whether on TV or in reality.
The exchange is engraved in the mind.
Since you want to pretend, then try to pretend as much as possible.
As for the director...
As a person who has experienced officialdom for a long time, he has been observing. Yes, there is no denying that when he saw He Fei for the first time, he was shocked that the other party was so young. However, after observing the other party's speech and behavior, and He Fei
Then he took out the real fake certificate that could slightly influence other people's thinking, and browsed the certificate. Sure enough, influenced by his thoughts, the director believed it, and immediately greeted him to sit down and went straight to the topic. The three of them talked about the current case in the office.
"Ah, I almost forgot to pour tea, come on, come on, this is the West Lake Longjing that I have treasured for a long time."
"You're welcome, Director, let's talk about the topic first."
He politely declined the invitation to drink tea. He Fei did not doubt his presence and said first: "Since the director now believes in the identity of the investigator, I will go straight to the point. Without saying anything else, about the recent series of cases that occurred in this city.
I have preliminary knowledge about 21 High School. I do not deny that the above cases are all important, but they are not the biggest focus at the moment. What I really want to know is... last night, the encounter between Captain Liu and I at 21 High School must have
Captain Liu has already told the director, right?"
Seeing that the investigator actually went straight to the topic without any politeness, the director was shocked, but he knew what was going on. He listened to the question, and looked at each other with Liu Jian. The director was straightforward, nodding his head and replied: "Yeah.
, I do know what Investigator He said, Captain Liu told me as early as this noon."
After receiving an affirmative answer from the other party, He Fei felt reassured and immediately asked with hope: "Since we know it, then the director must have sent someone to investigate at 21 High School not long ago, right?"
Obviously, this is He Fei's purpose. Since the director has learned from Liu Jian that 21 High School is mysterious and weird and that there is a skinned monster in it, let's not say whether the director believes it or not. As a leader, he should dispatch the police no matter what.
Rush to investigate, if you say that last night I
Liu Jian and Liu Jian had not dared to go deep because of the small number of people. So as Liu Jian reminded, the investigating police force that rushed to the school today must have sufficient numbers and armed forces. They were not afraid of the threat of the skinners, and could even directly attack the school with their strong strength.
A search is launched to uncover the real culprit!
As mentioned above, He Fei is clearly borrowing power, hoping to use the power of the police to solve the mystery as soon as possible and find the real culprit as soon as possible. As long as the real culprit is found, the antidote to the strange albino disease will certainly not be far away.
However...
Who would have thought that upon hearing the question, the director opposite, who had a normal expression just now, would change his expression slightly and look strange for a moment. He did not answer or speak. His only response was silence. Not only the director was like this, but he also stood aside.
Liu Jian frowned subconsciously. If he looked carefully, he would find that the man's hand on his lap was unconsciously clenched into a fist, and his expression faintly showed some unwillingness and even indignation.
He Fei had a panoramic view of all the reactions.
But He Fei didn't speak, he just waited patiently and silently.
Finally, after about half a minute, the director shook his head and replied: "No, the bureau has not sent any police force to 21 High School, and has not even investigated 21 High School."
Um!?
As soon as the director finished speaking, He Fei's eyes widened and his expression suddenly changed. He sat upright and leaned forward instinctively. His surprised eyes stared straight at the director. For a moment, the young man looked like he was examining an alien.
He looked at the other party one after another, glanced at the director up and down, and finally asked in a puzzled tone: "No
?There has never even been an investigation into 21 High School? Director, what do you mean by this? Since Captain Liu has told you about last night’s encounter, why didn’t the bureau send police to investigate? Doesn’t the director think that those skinners
Is it weird? Isn’t such a weird thing enough to attract the police’s attention?”
Asked again and again, puzzled and confused.
Yes, as an investigator, although He Fei did not know the specific details of his position, he at least understood the attitude of the investigator on behalf of the province. Faced with such an answer, how could He Fei continue to be polite? In addition, he was also confused, so He Fei immediately responded
He used his official power to force the director with a series of questions. In the end, his words became increasingly harsh and his words were full of strong doubts.
But the strange thing is that after listening to the words and hearing He Fei's series of stern questions, the director had not yet spoken. On the other side, Liu Jian, who had been silent earlier, spoke first instead of the director, and then spoke to He Fei.
Explained: "Sir, I think you misunderstood the director. It's not that the police don't want to investigate, but..."
At this point, Liu Jian paused for a moment, and He Fei noticed that the other person's face was getting more and more ugly. Apart from the ugliness, the man turned his eyes and unconsciously looked at the director opposite...
How could the director not understand what the subordinate meant when he saw him like this? Since the situation had developed to such an extent, finally, under Liu Jian's long gaze, the director nodded slightly.
As expected, after receiving the leader's approval, the man did not hesitate. First he took a deep breath, and then revealed the truth in a tone of unwillingness mixed with indignation:
"The first thing I did when I arrived at the bureau at noon was to find the director and give a full report on what happened to us last night. As for why our director was unwilling to send police officers to investigate after receiving the report, the reason was not with him, but with him.
…but comes from orders.”
"Order?"
Hearing this, He Fei leaned forward further, with a suspicious expression on his face, and subconsciously repeated the word "order" in his mouth.
Liu Jian nodded as usual and continued: "Yes, early this morning, a special commissioner came from the province. With a document from the Provincial Public Security Department, he strictly prohibited the city police station from investigating No. 21 High School. Not only that, but also strictly prohibited anyone from the police station from entering.
School, that is to say, the director had received the prohibition order in advance before I informed the director of what happened last night."
What!!!
Wow.
It's like thunder hitting your head on a dry day, like rolling waves sweeping over your body.
He Fei was shocked when he received such an answer. He stood up from the sofa where he was sitting.
