Hundreds of corpses were discovered in Baicheng overnight, and the crime occurred in the jurisdiction of a certain deputy mayor, a buddy with no real power. Maybe it was because the shadow of the previous bank robbery had not dissipated, so he suddenly became anxious.
I came to visit Qiu Tian, who is known as the toughest detective in Baicheng. I hope that this captain, who has been on the front line of criminal investigations all year round, can take over the investigation so that he can explain to his superiors.
"Hundreds of people died. And no one shot?" Qiu Tianhuala stood up from his chair, with a look of surprise written on his serious face.
"Yeah." The deputy mayor, who was on the fringe of the top municipal government but had no real power at hand, nodded heavily and said with a frown. "After receiving the report from the citizens at four o'clock this morning, I led people to rush over. There were really corpses everywhere.
, blood flowed into the river. There were dozens of corpses recovered from the river alone. According to forensic identification, many of the corpses were killed by a sword."
"Killing with a sword?" Qiu Tian opened his mouth wide and his eyes went straight.
He had dealt with many gang fights on the road. However, informants usually broke the news about such large-scale fights. The final number of casualties could also be strictly controlled. But this time, he didn't receive any news. This made Qiu Tian very angry.
distressed.
"The most important thing is-" the deputy mayor swallowed his saliva and said with difficulty. "Most of these corpses are foreigners. And the details of all of them cannot be found."
"Black household?" Qiu Tian asked.
"It's very possible." The deputy mayor said with a sad face. "Captain Qiu, I'm leaving this case to you. Please help me."
Qiu Tian nodded absently and said, "Don't worry. I will handle the case with my heart."
After sending the deputy mayor away, Qiu Tian immediately notified his subordinates to start investigating. While sending people to the first scene, he ordered his subordinates to collect the information of the patients who were admitted to the hospital last night due to cold weapon injuries.
After a busy morning, Qiu Tian, who didn't even bother to eat lunch, returned to the office from the crime scene and immersed himself in analyzing the suspects in the hospital.
Listed on the table were all the information of patients who had entered the hospital last night and were injured by cold weapons. Qiu Tian briefly browsed through it first, and threw many street gangsters with criminal records in the police station to his subordinates, and asked them to go to the hospital for interrogation one by one.
.Then focus your attention on those unfamiliar faces.
He has been to the scene of the crime and checked the injuries on the bodies. As the deputy mayor said, most of them were fatal with one blow. Their ages ranged from twenty to forty years old. Everyone had cold weapons on or near them for self-defense.
Many people even have the same logo on their clothes: god.
Qiu Tian didn't know what this sign meant. But through the evidence he collected at the crime scene, it was easy to find that this was no ordinary fight. At least it was not a tragedy that could be caused by those low-life gangsters in Baicheng.
Wow.
Qiu Tian opened the last patient file. As soon as he saw the name and photo on the file, he was shocked——
Chu River?
Is he injured?
After reading the detailed information, I was still penetrated by a sharp weapon!
A picture flashed through Qiu Tian's mind - a middle-aged man had a spear pierced through his body and was nailed to the bridge.
Chu He was quickly identified as a suspect. Qiu Tian stood up and shouted loudly: "Action!"
…
Xia He asked for leave. Chu He also asked for leave. Xia He no longer cared about whether asking for leave together would make the students daydream. Now Chu He is living in the hospital to recuperate, and she must take care of this man who was seriously injured because of her around the clock.
After cooking food for the master and apprentice at home, Xia He packed the food and brought it to the hospital to feed Chu He.
Chu He had woken up this morning. Even the deputy director of the hospital marveled at Chu He's recovery speed. He touched him from head to toe several times and marveled: "Young man, your physical fitness is really good.
. It takes at least a week for ordinary people to wake up. You can’t even think of getting out of bed until half a year."
Chu He just smiled and said: "I can get out of bed in a week."
Of course the doctor didn't believe that he could get out of bed within a week. But he didn't say anything and handed him over to the beautiful Xia He.
Sitting on the edge of the bed, Xia He carefully took out the food. The rice was porridge, and the vegetables were exquisite side dishes that she carefully cooked. They were easy to digest, nutritious, and perfect for meals.
The insulated box worked extremely well, and the porridge was still steaming when he took it out. Xia He held the porridge in his hands, blew the hot air, and said softly: "Director Chu, take a couple of bites."
Because Chu He was injured on his chest, he couldn't get up when he woke up, so he just lay on the bed and ate. He took a sip of the porridge and said, "It's delicious."
Xia He's eyes were full of water. He said softly: "You are already hurt like this, so don't praise me anymore."
"You can't even praise me?" Chu He grinned and said with a smile. "Are you afraid that you will be proud?"
Xia He secretly wiped her tears and choked up: "The doctor said that if you move two centimeters to the left, your lungs will be punctured."
"Don't worry. Director Chu has carefully calculated it. It's okay." Chu He said with a smile. "Why. Just give Director Chu a bite?"
After hearing this, Xia He hurriedly saved the porridge and patiently blew it until it was warm before putting it into the mouth of the Chu River.
It actually took half an hour to finish the meal. Chu He didn't know whether he was full or just waiting to be full. He smacked his lips and said, "Xiao Xia, can you cook more next time? Director Chu is so tired
You are strong. What you bring is not enough to fill the gap between your teeth."
"The doctor said that you have just woken up and your body functions have not recovered yet. You should not eat too much for fear of hurting you." Xia He persuaded softly. "When you get better, I will cook you a table of delicious food."
Chuhe had no choice but to accept his fate.
Dong Dong.
Just as Xia He was finishing up the tableware and preparing to peel fruit for Chu He, there was a knock on the door.
"I'll open it." Xia He put down the fruit knife and opened the door.
"Uncle Qiu, why are you here?" Xia He unexpectedly looked at Qiu Tian standing at the door.
"Is Chuhe here?" Qiu Tian was surprised when he saw that it was Xia He who opened the door.
"Yeah. Rest inside."
"You come out first, Uncle Qiu has something to say to Chu He," Qiu Tian said.
Xia He immediately hesitated, but heard Chu He on the bed laugh and say: "Xiao Xia, Director Chu is out of cigarettes, go downstairs and buy one for me."
After driving Xia He away, Qiu Tian asked his subordinates to wait outside the door and closed the door behind him. He walked steadily beside the bed and stared deeply at the smiling Chu He.
"Captain Qiu, sit down." Chu He pursed his lips angrily.
Qiu Tian sat down, his eyes still staring straight at Chuhe. He seemed to be waiting for something.
"Captain Qiu, you can't be nice to me, right?" Chu He pretended to be frightened. "My orientation is very normal."
Qiu Tian ignored his joke and pointed at his chest: "How did it get hurt?"
"It fell." Chu He said with a smile, his expression as usual.
"A big hole was created?" Qiu Tian frowned slightly. "According to the doctor, if the wound had been a few centimeters off, you might have died."
"Yeah. I also think I'm pretty lucky." Chu He joked. "Captain Qiu, give me a cigarette. The hospital confiscated my cigarettes."
Qiu Tian did not refuse. He lit a cigarette and stuffed it into his mouth. He calmed down for a while and then said solemnly: "Xiao Chu, there was a murder in Baicheng last night. Hundreds of people died. The higher-ups are paying great attention to it."
, and ordered me to be the person in charge of this case."
"Really? So many people died. It's such a pity." Chu He puffed out a puff of thick smoke and smacked his mouth.
Qiu Tian narrowed his eyes slightly: "You have nothing to say to me?"
"I wish you will solve the case as soon as possible." Chu He said.
Qiu Tian took a deep breath of cold air. Xuan Zhi looked at Chu He quietly and said slowly: "You are from the Divine Corps. I am not qualified to interrogate you. But within my authority, there are some things that I must ask clearly."
Seeing that Qiu Tian was not flinching, Chu He seemed not to give up. He couldn't help but reach out to hold the cigarette and blew out a puff of smoke: "Captain Qiu. There are some things I don't know whether I should say or not."
"I'm here just to listen to you." Qiu Tian said calmly.
"You'd better not investigate this matter too deeply." Chu He said decisively. "It's useless to investigate. It will also harm yourself."
"In other words, do you know about this?" Qiu Tian narrowed his eyes slightly and asked.
Chu He shook his head helplessly: "That's all I can tell you. First of all, you know better than me. In the absence of conclusive evidence, you do not have the authority to take me back to the police station."
"But I will send someone to monitor you." Qiu Tian said bluntly.
Chu He was startled and smiled bitterly: "That is within your scope of authority. I have no right to refuse." After a slight pause, Chu He said again. "Captain Qiu, you may have discovered that those people are all foreigners, not to mention those in China.
There are no entry and exit records, and there is no specific data analysis abroad. In short, no one in the world knows that they are alive. No one in the world knows that they are dead."
Qiu Tian was startled, then his eyes widened suddenly, and he said word by word: "Chu He, you think about the problem too complicatedly."
"Oh?" Chu He stared at Qiu Tian in surprise, waiting for his answer.
"I'm a policeman." Qiu Tian straightened his body. "I don't care whether those people are wealthy business tycoons, or poor people living at the bottom. Or they are the gangsters you mentioned that no one knows who they are.
These are not important to me."
"Then what is important?" Chu He asked curiously.
"They were killed." Qiu Tian said with a solemn expression. "This is a criminal case. It is a murder case. Let me ask you, if the murder case last night happened during the day and in the downtown area, how many innocent citizens would be harmed?
?”
Chu He opened his mouth and was speechless.
"I am a police officer," Qiu Tian said forcefully. "My purpose is to find out the truth and bring those gangsters who disrupt public order and threaten the lives of citizens to justice and bring them to court."
"What if the court acquits them?" Chu He asked rhetorically.
"I am a policeman." Qiu Tian said every word. "Not a judge."
Chu He smiled.
He gave a thumbs up with difficulty: "I have never seen a policeman as upright as you."
Qiu Tian did not change his attitude because of Chu He's praise, and said solemnly: "You are now a suspect in my eyes. So your next actions will be reported to me."
"I understand." Chu He nodded lightly. "I still say the same thing. If it is not necessary, don't investigate too deeply."
Qiu Tian stood up slowly, glanced at him with a complicated look, and said, "You have a good rest. If I find enough evidence, I will ask you to go back to the police station for questioning."
"Accept investigation at any time." Chu He said with a smile.
Qiu Tian nodded and slowly left the ward.
Just the moment he opened the door, Qiu Tian suddenly turned his head and stared deeply at Chu He: "I promised Xiaoxia's mother to take good care of her. I don't want her to be hurt because of you."
Chu He took a puff of cigarette and said with a smile: "I promised her father to take good care of her. I also don't want her to be harmed."
Qiu Tian was stunned for a moment, as if recalling some past events. He said with a dazed expression: "Goodbye."
