The halal restaurant Xiong Wanyi mentioned is located in the suburbs of the capital, and the location is relatively remote. This is where Ximen Lian's car broke down, and he found a good place to eat. Before the wolf attack incident years ago, I followed them to this halal restaurant, and it was
The restaurant's halal dishes are quite authentic, but it's a pity that the stove for roasting lamb broke down last time, so I didn't get to taste their signature roasted whole lamb.
Just when he was about to get off work, Gao Liang entered Fatty Sun's deputy director's office, and the two closed the door and started chatting. I thought that tonight's meal was in vain. But I didn't expect that less than twenty minutes later, Sun
Fatty came out of the director's office. Ximen Lian and Xiong Wanyi were waiting downstairs. It was hard for me to ask Gao Liang what business he had with him, but looking at Fatty Sun's smiling expression, it didn't look like something big had happened.
.
The five of us crowded into a car, and we didn't arrive at the halal restaurant in the suburbs until almost 7:30. Fortunately, as soon as we left the city, Ximen Lian called the restaurant and asked the restaurant to start roasting the lamb, waiting for us to arrive.
At that time, the roast lamb was coming out of the oven. When the whole roast lamb was served, it was still "sizzling" with oil.
Fatty Sun looked at the roasted whole lamb that was dripping with oil, and his face turned into a flower of joy. He was not polite, he stretched out his hand and tore off a piece of mutton, put it into his mouth and chewed it, and while eating, he said: "Let's make it today
You spent a lot of money and we agreed, next time, I’ll treat you when you come back next time.”
Looking at Fatty Sun's appearance, we all found it funny, and no one was being more serious with him. We each found our seats and sat down, watching the dishes come out one after another. We stopped being polite, exchanged glasses, and started eating and drinking.
Everyone here has a good drinking capacity. Before the dishes were all served, the two bottles of Wuliangye brought by Ximen Lian had already reached the bottom. The wine had not been drunk yet, and this halal restaurant does not sell liquor. Fortunately, Ximen Daguanren
Being prepared, he went back to the car and took two more bottles of Wuliangye. He drank until about ten o'clock before he felt a little bit interesting.
Lao Mo's heart was not good, so he was the first to put down his wine glass and replace it with tea. After taking two sips of tea, he looked at Fatty Sun, who was still struggling with a plate of grilled lamb faces. He didn't know what he was thinking, and suddenly changed his mind.
The head poured me a cup of tea, and then said: "Lazi, I heard that you and Bureau Sun entered the polling bureau together, and it seems that you were appointed by the Bureau Gao. What happened at that time? Director Gao was also alarmed."
I lit the cigarette, took a puff, and said, "Don't mention it, it's all about fate..." I said don't mention it, but I still remembered what happened in Dead Man's Pond in Yunnan when Fatty Sun and I first met.
I told the story about the incident, but when I was about to talk about meeting Wu Rendi, Fatty Sun suddenly winked at me. I said something, bypassed the part about Wu Rendi, and vaguely talked about the incident in the Dead Man's Pond.
over.
Fortunately, except for Fatty Sun, no one could tell that there was something wrong. After listening to what I said, Lao Mo nodded and said: "Lazi, we are all the same. Lao Xiong, me, and the senior officials all had this happen to them.
I just entered the polling bureau. I don’t know how the directors got in, but almost 90% of the investigators in the bureau got in."
This was the first time I heard about this. I poured a cup of tea for Lao Mo, drank a cup myself, and said, "I thought that apart from me and the Great Sage, you were all Director Gao and several directors.
The elites were selected from somewhere. My situation is similar to ours."
Xiong Wanyi drank a little too much at this time. He said to Fatty Sun with red eyes: "What's the same? We are much worse. Some people worked hard for decades to become a small director, and some people became a deputy director after half a year.
Ximen Lian and Lao Mo frowned after hearing this. The two of them snatched Xiong Wanyi's wine glass and replaced it with tea: "Old Xiong, you are talking nonsense again. Don't drink it if you don't have enough." Ximen Lian's
He had a much better drinking capacity than Xiong Wanyi. He said to Fatty Sun with some embarrassment: "Great Sage, I won't call you Director when I'm not in the bureau. Don't be as knowledgeable as Old Xiong. There's nothing wrong with this guy except that he doesn't drink well."
Well, you will talk nonsense as soon as you drink, and you will forget everything when you wake up."
Ximen Lian was asking Xiong Wanyi to find a way to rescue him. Unexpectedly, Xiong Wanyi had really drunk too much. He glared and shouted at the senior official Ximen: "Who do you think drank too much! You are the one who drank too much! Your whole family is here."
Drunk!" Ximen Lian was not as experienced as an alcoholic. He turned to Fatty Sun and continued: "How is it? Am I right? When he wakes up, he won't remember what happened just now."
Xiong Wanyi's eyes were red and he wanted to continue arguing with Ximen Lian. Ximen Lian said to him: "Old Xiong, if you haven't drunk too much, tell me how you got into the polling bureau. If you can't explain it, it's you.
Drank too much!"
After Xiong Wanyi heard what Ximen Lian said, he tilted his head and thought for a long time without saying a word. I looked at his appearance and said to the official Ximen: "Old Xiong is so drunk, how can he still bring it so far away?"
Do you remember what happened?"
Ximen Lian replied to me: "It's okay, Lao Xiong is different from ordinary drunkards. He drinks too much and seems to have Alzheimer's disease. He forgets everything in front of him, but he remembers things many years ago clearly."
As soon as he finished speaking, Xiong Wanyi murmured: "I was a policeman back then..."
Ximen Senior Official was right. Although Xiong Wanyi drank too much, he remembered very clearly what happened during the period when he entered the polling bureau.
Xiong Wanyi is from Northeast China. After graduating from the police academy a few years ago, he was assigned to a local police station and worked as a small-time police officer without even the basic qualifications to carry a gun. When he first entered the society, Xiong Wanyi dreamed of breaking into an unparalleled career.
A strange case. For this, he was relatively "adequately" prepared.
The bookshelves at Xiong Wanyi's home are filled with the complete works of Sherlock Holmes and the detective collections of Agatha Christie. Even for a period of time, Xiong Wanyi's mantra was: "Behind the layers of fog, there is only one truth..."
But the gap between dreams and reality is often out of reach. Xiong Wanyi stayed at the police station for a year, and all he could encounter were trivial things like needlework and family troubles. The biggest case was that Wang Mazi drank alcohol in Building 6
Many times, his wife wouldn't open the door when he came home. He was crying and fussing at the door, and the neighbors called the police after being unable to persuade him. When Xiong Wanyi and several small policemen came over, they scared his wife to the point of opening the door with just a few words.
Wang Mazi put it in.
Just when Xiong Wanyi was worried that all he had learned was useless, a strange resident moved into a dilapidated old house in his jurisdiction.
Originally, this matter had nothing to do with Xiong Wanyi, but some old ladies living nearby came to the police station to report that since this mysterious resident moved into this house, they often saw some people coming in and out of it.
There are both men and women, but they have one common characteristic. These people are all in their twenties and thirties, and they always come in and out alone. I have never seen more than two people entering this building together.
In the old house.
Xiong Wanyi does know that old Japanese-style house. It is within Xiong Wanyi's section. It is now extremely old. It is said that it is still a product left by the Japanese invaders. More than half a century has passed, and it has escaped
It has undergone countless relocations and urban renovations. Although it looks old and decayed on the outside, there are no major problems with the frame structure inside.
After knowing that someone else lived in this old house, Xiong Wanyi really took it seriously. A few days later, he went to the old house in person on the pretext of household registration. The person who lived there was a man named Hua Zishen.
Xiong Wanyi checked the ID card of a man in his thirties, but couldn’t see anything wrong with it. Xiong Wanyi asked why people often come in and out of his home. Hua Zishen’s answer was that he was working for a local company.
A regional supervisor, after work, he contacted his colleagues to visit his home for fun. Even Xiong Wanyi couldn't find anything wrong with this reason.
Although I didn't find anything wrong with Hua Zishen's words, after staying in this house for less than ten minutes, I could feel a cold atmosphere. Xiong Wanyi even felt like he was choked by someone's neck and couldn't breathe.
It felt like he had originally prepared a few questions, but because he really wasn't used to this feeling, Xiong Wanyi ended the conversation hastily and left the house in a hurry. Strangely enough, the moment Xiong Wanyi walked out of the door,
The extremely uneasy feeling just now disappeared instantly and disappeared without a trace.
From that day on, Xiong Wanyi became obsessed with this old house and the people in it. Whenever he had something to do after work or something, he would come here for a walk. He came here more often, and he really noticed something strange.
The beginning of things.
Like the previous crowd reaction, some strange people often come to Hua Zishen alone. Among these people, there are more women than men. And they are not in the habit of calling the door. They just take out the key and open the door, just like
It's like returning to your own home. Not only that, but what's even more strange is that these people came after Hua Zishen left. After these people left sneakily, Hua Zishen didn't know where he came from.
come out.
Is this called a friendship? Even if you say there is no ghost inside, you won’t believe it. According to Xiong Wanyi’s inner guess, this place is probably an underground factory for drug production and trafficking, or it is a black den of drug trafficking. At this time, Xiong Wanyi has already
He felt that a big case was already beckoning to him. As long as this case could be solved in his hands, he would have to say goodbye to his job as a small-time police officer. Xiong Wanyi could almost see himself joining the criminal police brigade in the future.
After half a month of investigation, Xiong Wanyi felt that it was almost time to go in and search for evidence. However, he was extra cautious and privately found a colleague with a gun and told him what he had discovered. His colleague was also unlucky.
A policeman who had been a police officer for twenty years was actually fooled by Xiong Wanyi, a young man who had just graduated from the police academy.
The two of them made sufficient preparations and lurked in the woods in the park opposite the old house. They waited until about five o'clock in the evening, when the sun began to set, when they saw the door of the old house open. Hua Zishen hurriedly rushed He walked out, carrying a bag of things in his hand, and disappeared into the crowd of people after get off work.
According to Xiong Wanyi's observation of Hua Zishen in the past few days, those people would not come within an hour after he went out. Taking advantage of this hour, Xiong Wanyi and the old policeman climbed over the wall and entered the courtyard. The old policeman used a special
The lock-picking tool unlocked the door, but the moment the two of them stepped into the door, Xiong Wanyi's previous feeling of depression and suffocation came over again.
But the old policeman didn't seem to feel this aura. Xiong Wanyi gritted his teeth and started to search several rooms on the opposite side with him. The two of them first searched the living room carefully, but found nothing suspicious, and then the Yamen
The two of them had to search several rooms.
Xiong Wanyi was responsible for checking the master bedroom. At first, it was the same as in the living room. But when he opened the big closet, Xiong Wanyi sat down on the ground and shivered into a ball. In just a moment, all the sweat on his body covered his body.
Clothes soaked.
I saw more than a dozen white human skins hanging in the big closet. There was no visible damage on these human skins, except for a five- to six-inch gash on the back of the neck. It seemed that the flesh and blood of these people came from here.
He took it out from the hole. Just as he was looking at the human skin in the room in front of him, not daring to breathe out, he heard the intercom on his waist rang: "Xiong Wanyi! You... come down and see what these are!"
The old policeman had already yelled out, and it wasn't until he shouted three or four times that Xiong Wanyi came back to his senses, trembling and moved towards the room where the old policeman was. The old policeman stood at the door of the room with a pale face, his hands
His legs were shaking slightly, he held the door with one hand, and took out a cigarette with the other hand. Remembering that this was still a crime scene, he put the cigarette case back into his pocket.
"It's up to you this time. We encountered a big case." The old policeman's eyes were a little dull. He glanced at Xiong Wanyi blankly and said, "I have been a police officer for twenty years and have never encountered such a big case."
"The more the old policeman talked, the more unsure Xiong Wanyi felt: "Brother Qi, don't scare me, what happened?" The old policeman who was called "Brother Qi" turned sideways and let the door of the room out.
, he didn’t dare to look at the scene inside anymore, he just looked at Xiong Wanyi and said, “See for yourself.”
