Early in the morning, the air in the office was a little soaked. Su Mian closed her jacket and, with the others, stared at the dozens of surveillance screens in front of her.
This is the morning promised by the seven-member group. What they watched was the real-time situation of major video websites, as well as the pictures of various traffic-heavy sections of the city.
This is only part of it. Outside the big house, more than a dozen police officers are monitoring the situation in other sections of the road. At this moment, there are still more than hundreds of police officers scattered in various urban areas on patrol.
Such waiting is a test of patience. Su Mian stared at her for a while, her eyes dazzled. He stopped and turned his head to look at Han Chen beside him. His expression was very calm, sitting in a chair with his face slightly tilted up, focused.
His patience has always been extraordinary.
Su Mian couldn't help but wanted to do something small. Seeing that they didn't pay attention to the nagging, she secretly stretched out her tail finger and scratched the back of his hand. He glanced at her and held her fingers instead. Su Mian smiled slightly, and then looked at the dazzling surveillance images, and actually felt a lot more pleasing to the eye.
The two of them were fighting, and the others had to find ways to refresh themselves.
With a "wipe", Leng Nian lit the lighter, bowed his head and nodded. Nagging also came over to set fire to it. The two of them were breathing clouds and mist, but they were relaxed and refreshed. Zhou Xiaozhuan also took out a bottle of chewing gum from his bag, poured it down, poured one out, put it in his mouth, and let out a long sigh of relief.
The house soon smelled of cigarettes. It's still the top Su Yan that Han Chen gave to Nag.
Su Mian took a deep breath and inhaled again. I just felt that from my lungs to my throat, I was scratched by the smell. I really want to, but I can only think about it.
After swallowing again, she subconsciously looked at Han Chen. Unexpectedly, when he turned his head, he saw that his Adam's apple rolled.
Yes, his smoking addiction was also hooked.
Su Mian cares about people who are short-sighted. She immediately forgot that she was greedy, turned her head and glared at them, "Smokers, step back! It's too unconscious!"
Before he finished speaking, he saw a tick on the corner of Han Chen's mouth.
Nagging and cold face looked at each other, cold face picked up the chair and took a big step back. The nagging said while moving: "Xiao Bai, just say that you are greedy. Anyway, the boss is here, no matter how greedy you are, I will not give it to you." It was a habit and also for safety, they continued to call her "Little Boy". White".
Su Mian ignored him, turned to look at Xiao Zhuan again, and snatched the chewing gum from his hand without saying a word. Xiao Zhuan was very reluctant, and reached out his hand to come back: "I only have a few left, and I have to heal my tension all day long. You can buy it yourself."
Su Mian didn't even need to pay attention to him. Opening the bottle cap, he first threw one into his mouth, and then took another one for Han Chen. He opened his mouth, chewed it twice, and said, "Another one." Of course, Su Mian immediately fed him another one. Seeing that the bottle was empty, she threw it back to Xiao Zhuan.
Xiao Zhuan said angrily, "Bandits, you two!"
Nagging immediately echoed: "Yeah, yeah, it's too domineering."
Smiling coldly, Han Chen and Su Mian also smiled and sat side by side in the chairs, continuing to watch the screen.
6:30.
The major video websites and portal pages are still calm. The pictures captured by the cameras in key sections of the road are still crowded and there is no difference.
After Nagging finished smoking, he immediately moved his chair to a place very close to them, leaned on the backs of their chairs and said, "Tell me, what will happen in a while?"
Han Chen put one hand on the armrest of the chair, propped up the other arm, and pressed his fingers to his lips. He glanced at Su Mian. The two of them discussed this issue long ago, so Su Mian explained, "There will be three people. Because in that letter, they said 'we', which means they will appear together. As for what we see, we will Whether it is three people working together to do one case, or three people splitting up and doing three cases at the same time, is still unknown. But I am inclined to the latter. Because whether it is the behavior of sending letters from a risky door, or the second person fighting The book provocation, at least both of them, are very expressive. So I believe they will prefer a more individual way of committing crimes."
Nagging startled, nodded. Xiao Zhuan also came over: "But Xiao Bai, why are there only three people, and the fourth person won't appear?"
Su Mian shook her head, "I don't think so. In the case that year, the fourth person did not leave any crime or evidence behind. I think this person is either the leader of the gang or has another role in the group of seven. He didn't commit the crime directly, so this time, it won't appear directly in front of our eyes."
"Where is this?" Han Chen suddenly said, interrupting their discussion, and raised his finger to point to one of the screens.
Everyone looked over. It was a TV screen from a local station in Lan City, and a huge aquarium appeared inside. In the blue water, large and small schools of fish swim around, and there are several young girls, wearing mermaid bikinis with fish tails, swimming and chatting on the water. In front of the aquarium, there are some sports equipment, and the audience on both sides are entering the field.
Xiao Zhuan flipped through the information in his hand and replied, "Oh, this is a live broadcast on the morning of Life 3, called 'Ocean Breakthrough'. In fact, it is to invite some old men and women who are doing morning exercises every morning to participate in some water activities. The filming location is the aquarium, which is probably to attract popularity here.”
Nag and tsk: "These days, elderly programs are so glamorous, bikini mermaids."
Su Mian interjected, "No way, you male viewers like it."
At this moment, Han Chen suddenly stood up, walked to the screen, and stared at it from a very close distance.
"Xiao Zhuan, the picture is backwards."
Everyone was stunned, got up and surrounded the past. Su Mian was next to him, watching the TV screen with him. Xiao Zhuan immediately adjusted the video backwards.
Han Chen: "Stop."
He raised his head, his dark eyes seemed very focused. Everyone followed his line of sight, staring at the screen. At this moment, it is a close-up of the aquarium.
Smooth glass, rippling water, five "mermaids" floating in it, because the performance has not officially started, they are laughing and chatting, their wet long hair, fair face and waist are really attractive. look. Above the aquarium is a transparent glass dome, and the sun shines in warmly, refracting golden lines in the water.
After watching for a while, everyone didn't notice anything unusual, so they all looked at Han Chen. He said coldly: "What's the problem?"
Han Chen put his hands in his trouser pockets, still staring at the screen, frowning slightly: "Zoom in."
Xiao Zhuan immediately adjusted the screen, so the waves in the water and the enchanting curve of the "mermaid" also zoomed in and drew closer.
"Keep zooming in."
Xiao Zhuan shook his head, "This is a TV broadcast. If you zoom in again, you won't be able to see it clearly."
Su Mian held Han Chen's arm: "What did you see?"
Han Chen pondered for a moment.
At a certain moment just now, I don't know if it was dizziness or light. He seemed to see something flash across the water. However, the angle and clarity of the TV screen are limited, and he really can't judge whether it is an illusion or whether it really exists.
But as a criminal policeman, he knew very well when to trust his instincts.
The aquarium is at least an hour's drive from the city center, and the Black Shield team will definitely be too late to rush there in person. Han Chen said, "Cold face, inform the branch to send someone over immediately to check carefully."
Leng Nian immediately called.
The TV screen continued, and several people sat back and continued to observe. But because of this little episode, the atmosphere also seems to have become tense.
Su Mian looked up at the clock on the wall—6:45. There are still 22 minutes until the agreed 7:07.
Turning his head, he found that Han Chen was still watching the channel just now. Su Mian didn't really see anything just now, but those mermaid girls were indeed very sensual and sexy. They were stared at by Han Chen so earnestly and attentively across the TV, and Su Mian suddenly felt like "they earned it". So he leaned over and asked slowly, "Is the mermaid in good shape?"
Han Chen rested his chin with one hand, his eyes still looking at the screen, and said lightly, "Is this jealous? It's useless."
Su Mian: "...Why should I be successful in such a thing?"
