Seeing the arrival of the New Year, everyone was very excited, but this year there were regulations not to set off fireworks, so Da Binzi looked disappointed early in the morning.
"Teacher Chen, we are not allowed to set off firecrackers during this Chinese New Year, so what's the point?"
"I really don't understand what's so fun about that kind of thing, why are you so interested in those things? Things made of inferior gunpowder and chemical agents not only affect the air, but are also a waste of money."
After Chen Bai finished speaking, Bai Hongwei immediately expressed a different opinion.
"Chen Bai, what you said is wrong. The reason why we like these things is entirely because of our tradition. Setting off firecrackers is our tradition from now on, and these cannot be changed."
Chen Bai nodded and said nothing. Recently, the principal asked him to give a lecture. He was supposed to get a 500 bonus, but in the end he got some tobacco leaves from their hometown.
"Yes, setting off firecrackers is a tradition of our ancestors. Although setting off fireworks does cause air pollution, as long as the time and place are controlled, nothing will happen."
After Bai Hongwei finished speaking, he noticed that He Yong was silent and staring at his mobile phone.

"What are you playing at?"
Bai Hongwei went over and saw He Yong playing a shooting game on his mobile phone. The scene above looked familiar.
"This is a real shooting game. The scenes above are all famous places in Binhai City. If you can clear the levels in order, you can win corresponding rewards."
Bai Hongwei nodded. Although he is now in his 30s and almost 40s, Bai Hongwei still has a deep passion for games.
"Is this still a multiplayer game?"
"Yes, this is a multiplayer melee game. Everyone fights on their own. Everyone they encounter is an opponent. Only the person who defeats everyone and becomes the last one left is the champion."
Although fireworks are not allowed, it is the New Year after all, so it is still necessary to celebrate. After get off work, Chen Bai and Song Anchun decided to go to the supermarket to do some shopping.
"By the way, what do you want to eat tonight?"
Chen Bai picked up the beef in the freezer and looked at it. The beef tenderloin was $15.5 and it was marinated. It should taste good.
"What are you looking at?"

Chen Bai turned around and saw Song Anchun standing at the window, staring at the crowd downstairs without knowing what he was looking at.
"What are you looking at?"
Chen Bai walked to the window and saw that a promotional event was being held downstairs, and there was a balloon and target shooting game next to it.
"Do you like those stuffed animals?"
"Um!"
Chen Bai had no choice but to touch Song Anchun's head lovingly and said.
"Don't worry, after we finish shopping, can I go down and play with you?"
After Chen Bai loaded all the things into the car, Song Anchun went over early to queue up.
"How does this work?"
Song Anchun saw that there were darts and air guns at the stall, and for a moment he didn't know which one to play with.

"The darts cost 20 yuan and 15 shots. You have to hit them all. The pistol here costs 10 yuan and 10 shots. The pistol here costs 30 yuan and 500 shots. You can only choose the grand prize if you hit them all."
The boss said, pointing to the stuffed toys piled next to him. Those toys were almost 1:1 scale.
"Little sister, which one do you want to play?"
Chen Bai also came over at this time. After Song Anchun finished speaking, Chen Bai looked at the boss and asked.
"Which one of these three will win the grand prize, right?"
"That's right, you can get big prizes in all three of these. You can play whichever one you want."
As Chen Bai spoke, he directly picked up the pistol, and ten balloons were blown up by Chen Bai.
"I want that, that rabbit!"
The stall owner obviously didn't expect Chen Bai to be so powerful, but he didn't dare to say anything and could only hand the big rabbit to Song Anchun.
"Baby, which one do you want?"

Song Anchun thought for a while, pointed at Dabai in the corner and said excitedly.
"Babai, I still want that Dabai."
Chen Bai said and took the darts over there, and fifteen balloons were punctured one by one.
"Brother, you are awesome! It seems that you often play these!"
The boss's eyes were a bit wrong at this time, but Chen Bai just smiled and said.
"It's nothing, I just like these."
After Chen Bai finished speaking, he picked up the rifle next to him.
"Do you need 500 shots for this?"
"Yes, you have to knock down these signs one by one, and you must complete it within 40 minutes."
Chen Bai looked at the pile of signs erected in front of him and knew that his boss was deliberately trying to embarrass him. There was no way he could finish the game in 40 minutes.
body
"Okay, let me try!"
Although Chen Bai is very powerful, he will definitely not be able to finish the game in such a short time, so when 40 minutes are up, Chen Bai is still more than 100 short of finishing.
"It's a pity, it's a pity. It will be fine next time."
After Chen Bai left with Song Anchun, the boss suddenly changed his eyes and stared at Chen Bai's back with an evil smile.
"Chen Bai, we will meet again soon!"
The days passed like this day by day. Although the days gradually became calmer, Chen Bai always felt that this was the peace before the storm.
"Okay! I finally won!"
In the Internet cafe, a boy wearing a baseball cap and a denim jacket stood up, looked at the man opposite with some pride and said.
"Lao Gao, you can't do it either! I thought you were so powerful when I didn't meet you before! But now it seems that you are nothing more than that, but it doesn't matter as long as you call me master seriously, I will still
I can teach you."
The man opposite the boy looked to be in his 40s, middle-aged, bald and slightly potbellied. The man just looked at the boy with disdain and then lit a cigarette and said.
Talk app—
"Boy, you just defeated me, a middle-aged man. This kind of game is no longer something middle-aged people like us can play. But if you are really that good, you can sign up for the competition on the official website. If
If you can win the championship on the official website, I will admit that you are great."
The boy nodded and flicked a cigarette into his mouth.
"Okay, Lao Gao, I actually understand you very much. After all, you are no longer young. Don't you worry, the competition on the official website will be tomorrow? I will give you a championship then."
Of course, peaceful days are always broken by various things. As soon as Chen Bai arrived at school early this morning, he received a call from Bai Hongwei.
"Chen Bai, come here quickly, something happened!"
After Bai Hongwei said that, he hung up the phone directly. Chen Bai didn't know what happened, but he just saw that Bai Hongwei sent him an address.
"What happened?"
When Chen Bai arrived, he saw that the cordon had been drawn up, but Chen Bai looked around and saw no body.
"What's going on? What happened?"
Chen Bai saw there was no body and asked with some confusion.
"No, it's not like he's dead, it's just that something strange happened."
"ah?"
Chen Bai was a little confused by Bai Hongwei, but Bai Hongwei pulled Chen Bai to the door of a coffee shop.
"Chen Bai, look at this!"
Chen Bai saw a cup of spilled coffee under the tea seat outside the coffee shop, and there was a hole in the coffee cup.
"Tell him what you just told me again!"
Chen Bai saw a girl sitting on the tea seat. The girl was shaking all over and her face was stained with makeup. It looked like she must have cried.
"Just now, I bought a cup of coffee and sat here. Then I put the coffee here. When I lowered my head to play with my phone, the coffee cup suddenly flew out in front of my eyes. The coffee inside spilled all over me. After that, I
I found that my whole body was red, and I didn’t know what was going on.”
Chen Bai put on his gloves and picked up the coffee cup with some confusion. The coffee cup was directly pierced. Chen Bai looked at the coffee cup in his hand, then looked at the coffee on the glass of the cafe and the red liquid that he didn't know what it was.
, frowned.
"Chen Bai, what's going on?"
body
Bai Hongwei was a little curious, but Chen Bai looked at the coffee cup and suddenly said something that shocked everyone.
"If I'm not mistaken, this coffee cup may have been shot through by a gun."
"What did you say?"
Bai Hongwei was a little surprised. After all, what Chen Bai said was beyond his expectation.
"Yes, this was obviously shot, and judging from this position"
Chen Bai returned the coffee cup to its original position, squatted down and carefully looked at the punctured location. Then Chen Bai turned around and stretched out his thumb to aim at the tall building behind him.
"Would any of you come with me to have a look!"
"Teacher Chen, we will go with you!"
Da Binzi He Yong immediately raised their hands. Chen Bai left Bai Hongwei here to control the scene, and then took Da Binzi He Yong to the building not far behind him.
"Teacher Chen, was that coffee cup really shot through with a gun?"
Say, welcome to download -
He Yong still doesn't believe it. After all, they didn't find a warhead at the scene. And if it was really shot with a gun, what does it mean to hit a coffee cup?
"Yes, I can be sure of this!"
That building is Jinlai Building. There are clothes sellers, cinemas, billiards halls, Internet cafes, and secret rooms in the building. Young people from the Binhai side like to come here to play. After Chen Bai finished speaking, he came to the rooftop
In the open-air garden, there used to be a lot of people here in the summer, but now that the weather is cold, no one comes up to the roof.
"Teacher Chen, it's at least 500 meters from here to that square. Is there any gun that doesn't fire live ammunition that can shoot that far?"
He Yong has been addicted to shooting games recently, so he is very sensitive to this aspect.
"Isn't it possible? How do you know what he fired was not live ammunition?"
As Chen Bai spoke, he picked up a bullet casing from the ground, put it under his nose, smelled it, and handed it to He Yong.
"this"
He Yong saw the cartridge case in his hand and looked at Chen Bai in disbelief because he also smelled the gunpowder on the cartridge case.
"Put it up and let Wu Di see if there are any fingerprints on it?"

Chen Bai turned around and looked at the railing. There were traces of dust on the railing being rubbed off. It seemed that the man just lay down here and shot.
"Bai Hongwei, call Wu Di to come up!"
Chen Bai hung up the phone and lit a cigarette. At this time, Chen Bai had a vague idea in his mind.
"Chen Bai, let me tell you first, I may not be able to find fingerprints or anything else in this place."
Sure enough, Wu Di searched for a long time and found nothing. All the clues were bullet casings on the ground.
"Wu Di, look at this!"
After Chen Bai finished speaking, he handed the evidence bag to Wu Di.
"Is this what you're discovering?"
Wu Di was a little surprised, because he thought Chen Bai was just casually saying that he was shot here, but he didn't expect that Chen Bai actually found bullet casings here.
"Chen Bai, this bullet casing"
Wu Di didn't finish what he said, but Chen Bai already understood what it meant.
"That's right, it's the same bullet as in the previous case."
Wu Di's expression became serious. Now everyone knew about that organization. And last time before Chen Bai repaired his car, Wu Di also picked up a bullet casing at the highway entrance.
"Chen Bai, tell me the truth, who are these people?"
"Oh? What do you mean?"
Chen Bai was a little curious as to why Wu Di asked himself this.
"Chen Bai, the person in the archives room and I are classmates. He told me that you often go to the archives room to read materials recently, and you also look at the cases that your teacher handled before. Chen Bai, is there anything you can't tell us?
Didn't I say that? No matter what happens, we have to face it together. Why do you want to face it on your own now? Even if you do this, you don't regard us as friends, but have you ever thought about Song Anchun's feelings?
"
Chen Bai nodded, Wu Di's words still made sense.
"Wu Di, actually I know all this, and I have never thought about not facing it with you, but I really don't know how to tell you about this matter. The previous one was exactly the same as it was fifteen years ago.
I think you will never forget the case. I learned from that case that those people wanted to tell me the truth about the case fifteen years ago, but when I found out the truth, I felt that the matter was not that simple."
After Chen Bai finished speaking, he lit a cigarette and continued.
"These people are not ordinary people. There is still such a thing when our country's gun management system is so strict. If I am not mistaken, this thing is a sniper rifle bullet, but I can't tell what kind of gun it is, but
Even so, they are very powerful. Also, Chen Chen was with them last time. The first case I came into contact with was done by them. Although Wuchuan is not one of them, he was also influenced by them.
.They were involved in several subsequent cases. I don’t think you will forget those cases where the murderer was not caught, right?"
Wu Di lowered his head, then raised his head after a long time and said.
"Chen Bai, I know you really want to find out what happened fifteen years ago, but I think you have to tell us no matter what. I have never seen someone like you, who is not a policeman.
If you can work hard for us, I hope I can always be your colleague."
"Okay, don't worry, I will definitely tell you something in the future!"
Although Chen Bai said this, there were actually many things that he did not tell Wu Di, such as what Sariel told him when he arrested Wang Jiayan.
"Okay, let's go!"
After returning, Wu Di immediately checked the bullet casing. Of course, there would be no fingerprints on it. But when he saw the bullet casing, Bai Hongwei believed what Chen Bai said.
"Chen Bai, what's going on? How could it really be a bullet?"
Bai Hongwei didn't expect it to be a bullet, but what Chen Bai wanted to know most now was why did this man break the woman's coffee cup?
"Has that woman's identity been checked?"
p
"After checking, that woman is just an ordinary office worker with no illegal record."
Chen Bai nodded. In fact, he also understood that if the man really wanted to kill someone, he could just use live ammunition to shoot his head.
"I don't know what's going on yet, but give me some time and I'll be able to find out."
Chen Bai didn't go back that day. He just stared at the bullet shells on the table in a daze. He didn't understand why this person did this. If he really wanted to kill someone, just kill him directly. You will only make others miserable.
Be prepared, and if you let the police know that you have a gun, the police will find you at all costs.
"Did Li Huan find out?"
"I found it, but this person is wearing a balaclava and I can't see clearly what he looks like."
Li Huan put his computer in front of Chen Bai. Chen Bai saw that around 8 o'clock, the building's surveillance camera captured a person carrying a tennis bag entering the building and going directly to the top floor. An hour later, that person
People went downstairs and left directly.
"Is that all there is?"
Chen Bai was a little disappointed, he thought there must be something else besides these.
"No, there's really only these. These are all from when I opened the building to when the incident happened."
p
Chen Bai was a little disappointed, because there was nothing visible at all.
"Not even Wang Xin?"
"No, that guy said that I can't draw it at all because I can only see the eyes, and I can't determine the shape of the face."
Chen Bai was a little helpless. If even Wang Xin couldn't do anything, then it would be difficult for him to find this person.
"Okay, you go back first! It's okay if you always look at this bullet shell here!"
"Okay, you go first, I'll leave in a moment."
After Wu Di left, Chen Bai took out his mobile phone and made a call.
"Shanmao, you really haven't contacted me for a long time. What happened again?"
"You know everything about today, right?"
The person on the other end of the phone smiled and said helplessly.
Say, welcome to download -
"Lynx, you really only come to me when you have something you can't handle, but what I can tell you is that what I know now is almost the same as you, so I can't help you with anything."
Chen Bai felt helpless when he heard the person on the other end of the phone say this.
"Okay! Since you said so, I have to find a way myself."
In the Internet cafe, the atmosphere was heated, and a man appeared surrounded by everyone.
"Don't worry, everyone, I will definitely win the championship in this Jedi Gun King event. It is said that the championship this time will be worth 50,000 yuan. When I get the money, I will treat all of you to dinner."
The man's words were cheered by many people. Of course, there were still many people in the Internet cafe who were not convinced.
"Brother Sun, you won the championship this time, but don't forget about our Internet cafe!"
The network administrator handed the drink in his hand to the man, and the man smiled and took the drink and put it on the table.
