Chapter 136 Portrait of the Murderer: Announcement (1)
Night falls quietly, and thousands of lanterns illuminate the city of Mobei like the Milky Way in the desert.
Although it is already past dinner time, there are still cars on the road like dragons, making it a night-time scene that is more lively than during the day.
Chen Liangshan didn't want to go home. He knew that Xiao Yanran was still busy outside, and he also knew that only his mother-in-law and daughter were at home now.
He really didn't know how to face his mother-in-law, and he really didn't know how to answer when the other party asked, "Why did you let my daughter live like this?"
The lives of two people will become extremely complicated if their parents are involved, and Chen Liangshan encountered such a problem.
But he was helpless about it. After all, he couldn't bring his wife and daughter a better life, so outsiders would inevitably intervene.
The pressure that his mother-in-law brought to him was like a heavy dark cloud at this time, making him breathless. But whenever this happened, Chen Liangshan could always think of a place to go, and there was always someone in that place.
His arrival is welcome at any time.
After driving through the hustle and bustle of the city, Chen Liangshan finally parked the car at the gate of Xicheng Zoo, and the man was already waiting for him at the gate.
The other party was a woman, but this woman was not as gentle and graceful as a city woman. When she walked briskly towards Chen Liangshan, she could not see the dazzling beauty that men like on her body.
This woman is neither beautiful nor outstanding. She always seems to be wearing the simple animal keeper uniform. Even when she stands with the animals in the park, she does not look out of place at all.
The woman looked very happy when she saw Chen Liangshan and chuckled: "Brother Liangshan, why are you here?"
Chen Liangshan got out of the car and instead of answering the other party's question, he asked first: "How is Erniuzi?"
"It's still the same. Every time I see a beautiful female tourist, I pounce on it. But since I give it 20 minutes of ideological education every day, it has become much more honest now, but it still pounces when I see a pretty girl.
I can’t help but drool.”
When the woman spoke, she took off her work hat, revealing a pair of bright eyes. When she talked about Er Niuzi, her concerned eyes seemed to be talking about her own family.
Chen Liangshan smiled and said, "You still have a way. The bad husky that so many people can't handle can become obedient in your hands."
"That's not the case!"
When the woman heard Chen Liangshan praising herself, she couldn't help but raise her fist and smile proudly: "I am Lin Aji, the king of beasts!"
"The king of beasts?" Chen Liangshan murmured to himself. When he saw the other party's eyes full of confidence, he couldn't help but laugh out loud. At the same time, he asked doubtfully: "Aji, let me ask you, you always don't deal with others.
Wouldn’t it be boring to be with animals every day?”
Lin Aji shook his head, "I'm so busy with everything every day that I can't finish it. How can I have time to feel bored?"
"Oh? Aren't you just responsible for feeding these animals some feed every day? Are there so many things to do?"
"Of course there are, and there are many things."
While Lin Aji was talking, he led Chen Liangshan to the inside of the zoo, pointed to a large pond area not far away and explained: "Look at those two hippos, the one with half of the ears on his head is called Brother Kun, and there is a hole on his buttocks.
The ones with large white spots are called pheasants. Brother Kun snatched the pheasant’s watermelon this morning, and the two of them have been in trouble over this matter until now. I’ve been trying to persuade them all day long!”
Although he looked at the funny look on his face when he spoke, Chen Liangshan knew very well that only a girl like Lin Aji could regard animals as her family and treat them with an emotion that was not mixed with the good and evil of human nature.
Face these dumb beings.
Therefore, it is precisely in this way that when Chen Liangshan encounters confusion or sadness, he will always think of this woman named Lin Aji first. When he sees her eyes as clear as animals, he always seems to be able to
Infecting his world and making it full of hope again.
Chen Liangshan vaguely remembered that 3 years ago, he received an order for repairing the circuits of an ordinary zoo. After he completed the work, he saw a girl wearing a zookeeper's uniform, holding a small sign in her hand and walking among the tourists.
between.
The zoo was not performing well at that time, but unfortunately another husky named "Er Niuzi" was infected with canine distemper and parvovirus.
For canines, these two diseases are equivalent to human terminal diseases, and the onset period is extremely contagious to canines. Therefore, under the consideration of the zoo leaders, it was decided that "the cost of treatment is too high"
For this reason, Erniuzi was given a peaceful treatment. (Note)
At that time, Lin Aji was just a contract worker at the zoo, but she was the only one who did not intend to give up Erniuzi. After many applications were rejected by the leaders, she had to hold up a small sign every day to greet the tourists.
Conduct fundraisers.
Lin Aji's thinking is a bit strange. In her opinion, if tourists can see Erniuzi's painful appearance when he is ill, it may be able to arouse people's sympathy. But the actual result was not at all what she expected.
When tourists saw the dog in the photo with its body curled up due to convulsions and urinating all over the floor, they all frowned and walked away.
Until now, Lin Aji has not understood one thing, that is, the reason why people like animals is because they like to see animals when they are cute and obedient. To put it simply, what people like is the beauty of life, not the beauty of life.
This little life itself.
Therefore, when people saw that Erniuzi had become what it is now, no one cared about its pain.
This was the first impression Lin Aji left on Chen Liangshan, a girl who was incompatible with the world, but chose to devote all her love to these animals.
However, what made Lin Aji notice Chen Liangshan was that among all the visitors to the zoo at that time, Chen Liangshan was the only one who donated money to Erniuzi.
Lin Aji still can't forget what Chen Liangshan said when he asked why he donated money: This dog's eyes are mean, but I can see that it doesn't want to die.
In the end, Er Niuzi survived with his strong desire to survive, and Chen Liangshan and Lin Aji gradually got to know each other after this incident.
Three years have passed, and both of them have realized that there is an indescribable feeling between themselves and each other, but they are both sure that this is not a relationship between men and women, and it has nothing to do with sexual desire. However, this does not prevent the two from cherishing being together.
Even if they don't talk after meeting, they just sit there and look at the animals silently, they won't feel tired.
Later, in a certain chat, they also frankly put the matter in the open, and both parties expressed their thoughts in no secret. In the end, they came to the conclusion that they could always help each other.
I see my own shadow in my body and what I am missing.
Therefore, Chen Liangshan didn't know whether this was what people often call "beauties" or "blue beauties", but he firmly understood one thing anyway, that is, he would never cross any boundaries with this girl.
thing.
At this time, although evening was approaching and there were no tourists in the zoo, the two began to get busy, adding fodder to the animals' food troughs.
"Brother Liangshan." Lin Aji suddenly stopped what he was doing and asked, "Did something happen to you today? I think your mood is wrong."
Chen Liangshan smiled and said, "Huh? Is there any? Why don't I think so?"
Lin Aji: "Of course! Animal intuition is very keen! Don't underestimate me!"
"Pfft! You're not an animal!"
"But my intuition is sharper than that of animals!"
Er Niuzi, who was lying at the feet of the two of them, suddenly got up and barked "woof" twice at Chen Liangshan, seeming to have sensed the other person's abnormal emotions.
Seeing that the other party was hesitant to speak, Lin Aji seemed to suddenly think of something, pointed to the door, and said to Er Niuzi: "Speak to the adults, children, go out!"
After Er Niuzi walked out dejectedly, Lin Aji also sat down and said: "Okay! There is no one else now, you can say it!"
Seeing that the other party really regarded Er Niuzi as a child, Chen Liangshan couldn't help but smiled bitterly and shook his head. He told what happened to him today, but he deliberately concealed the fact that he accidentally killed two people.
After a long time, when Lin Aji finally heard what happened to the other party, her expression became serious, and even her naturally clear eyes became dim.
"Brother Liangshan, why do you think people must start a family?"
Chen Liangshan asked in confusion: "What did you say?"
"I mean, when you start a family, you have children, and when you have children, you have worries. In my opinion, children and animals are the same little lives. Since we have brought this little life into the world
, you have to be responsible for the other party, if you cannot be responsible for the other party..."
At this point, Lin Aji's eyes became even darker and he murmured: "That is an irresponsible thing to do."
Every word of the other party seemed to be spoken from the bottom of his heart. Chen Liangshan also sighed deeply and said to himself: "Yes... I am so irresponsible for doing this."
Thinking of the pain, Chen Liangshan hugged his head in discomfort. He never minded showing his vulnerable side in front of the other person. However, this kind of pain only lasted for a few seconds, but he saw the other person squatting down with a look in his eyes.
Become bright again.
"Brother Liangshan, I can feel your pain, but after you walk out of here, you must not be like this again."
Chen Liangshan asked curiously: "Oh? What do you mean by this?"
Lin Aji said with a smile: "In the animal world, once a lion shows signs of weakness, enemies will soon take advantage of it and seize its territory, so you must not show this in front of others.
Look like you, otherwise others will think you are easy to bully!"
Chen Liangshan smiled, "But I'm not a lion."
Lin Aji said firmly and confidently: "In my eyes, you are stronger than a lion!"
Chen Liangshan, who was originally in pain, was also amused by the other party's words. He took a deep breath and stood up, but the fragile look in his eyes was gone. At the same time, he imitated the other party's tone and said: "You are the king of beasts.
,You decide!"
"Also!" Lin Aji warned worriedly: "You are always running outside during this period, so be sure to pay attention to your safety!"
Chen Liangshan smiled and said: "I am a grown man, what can happen to me?"
Lin Aji said: "Not even a grown man. Just now I saw a news that a murderer has appeared in our city again, so you must be careful."
Upon hearing this, Chen Liangshan immediately asked alertly: "Oh? What did it say in the news?"
"Well..." Lin Aji recalled for a while and responded: "Just say that a murderer killed a man and a woman in a community today, and the method was particularly cruel. The most terrifying thing is that the murderer is still wandering around.
In our city! The report also specifically reminded everyone to pay attention to safety."
Chen Liangshan breathed quickly, suppressed his nervousness, and continued to ask: "Is there anything else? What else was said in the report?"
Lin Aji thought for a while and whispered: "The report also said that a scavenger saw the murderer and even talked to him!"
An icy chill spread from the soles of his feet to the top of his head. If he had not placed his hands on the guardrail at this time, Chen Liangshan would have felt his legs go weak and he would have sat on the ground.
Lin Aji quickly noticed the other party's emotions and asked: "Brother Liangshan, what's wrong with you?"
Chen Liangshan, who had been in contact with the other party for many years, certainly knew that Lin Aji’s sixth sense was as sharp as that of an animal, so he quickly came up with a lie and responded: "I remembered a best friend, he is a
Criminal investigation expert, maybe he is in danger now, chasing the murderer."
"Then please pass this news to him quickly and let him see it! Maybe this news can be helpful to him!"
Chen Liangshan touched his pocket, and then he remembered that his phone had been smashed, so he had to pick up the other party's phone and check the message.
When he opened the connection on the screen, an eye-catching website title attracted his attention: Huahua News Magazine.
How could it be the company where my wife works?
Chen Liangshan finally understood that the overtime work Xiao Yanran mentioned tonight was actually to interview a murder scene, and what was even more ironic was that the murderer of that murder case was her husband.
On the home page of the magazine's website, a news item with hundreds of thousands of views has been pinned to the top. The headline in the news report reads: Murderers cannot escape justice, and scavengers at the crime scene reveal their true identities.
The thing he was most worried about happened. Now Chen Liangshan had almost foreseen the future of being arrested by the police. He tremblingly clicked on the title, and soon saw a video below the report. In the video, the person who was arrested was
The man he interviewed turned out to be the scavenger who helped him to the Jianmin villa area today: the King of Rags.
He clicked on the video tremblingly, and when he saw the Rag King in the video, he was spitting and describing the appearance of today's murderer.
The description of the Rag King was very precise. He even told the camera what color clothes the murderer was wearing today, what his height and facial features were, etc.
"Brother Liangshan? You...what's wrong with you?"
Lin Aji obviously saw the other party's unusual behavior, but just after asking a few words, he heard the other party say: "Aji, I have to leave, I remembered something very important!"
