Su Mian has always been a person who is not afraid of anything.
She is not afraid of the ferocity of her opponent, nor is she afraid of danger and injury. A, l and r are cruel and insolent to this point, which can only arouse her stubbornness and blood. afraid of them? How can it be!
However, the portrait of Dang S was born in her heart. A familiar feeling that seemed to have been dormant in her body for a long time suddenly invaded her heart.
That feeling is fear.
Fear of s.
He is like an abyss. Quiet, mysterious, powerful, ruthless. You can't look back, and when you look back, you might get caught up in it.
"What I'm afraid of is s." After saying this, Su Mian inserted one hand into her long hair in anguish, lowered her head and continued smoking a suffocating cigarette. Xiao Zhuan's mouth opened wide, and his mind turned several times before he murmured, "So... you think their ultimate goal is you?"
Su Mian was silent for a while, then replied, "Yes. Han Chen said that he wanted to find the connection between the previous cases. In fact, he didn't say, there is another connection, which is me. The war book is in my hands; I can crack it - because only I understand them; the dance is for me to see, do you remember that in the video of l dancing, a and r are both standing on the left side of the screen, and a large space is left on the right? That is For whom? Me and s."
Xiao Zhuan opened his eyes wide, unable to speak. However, Su Mian continued to say anxiously, "In the end, the choice between you and Forensic Doctor Xu is also up to me. The decryption method is the fingerprint of the ring finger of the right hand, what does this mean? And the one they plan to kill also likes me. Xu Sibai, not you."
Xiao Zhuan lost his voice: "I see! So the three of them are doing so much, and they want you to be their Madam Yazhai?"
Su Mian was silent for a moment, then said, "Shut up! Can you not commit a second crime at this time! I think what they did before was more like sending a message than committing a crime."
Xiao Zhuan asked curiously, "What message do you convey?"
Su Mian looked at the smoke entangled between her fingers, stretched out her hand and stroked her hair, and looked out the window: "Let everyone and me see the existence of the Seven-Man Group and the spirit of the Seven-Man Group. Let the world feel fear, but To me, both favor and power, torture my will, destroy my spirit." After a pause, she added: "Perhaps, my undercover career made them feel that I will return to their midst after all. Become a woman of s. All of this may be understood as their calling to me, their own calling."
She spoke calmly, but Xiao Zhuan felt a chill all over her body. But Su Mian's explanation made it logically clear!
"No! They are crazy! Delusional! You are a member of the Black Shield team, you and Han Chen will not be separated! It's none of their business!" he shouted.
Su Mian looked out the window, took another breath, and said nothing.
Xiao Zhuan thought for a while, then asked again, "Then... that s, what role does he play in this process? Will he be the mastermind?"
"It should be." Su Mian replied softly, "Look at the case five years ago, he never showed up or committed the crime directly. He just stood behind them."
"But they didn't show up for so many years, and he didn't attack you. Why now..." Xiao Zhuan hesitated.
Su Mian couldn't fully answer this question. She was quiet for a while before answering: "I don't know, what happened back then, and I don't know either. But now they have decided to take action... Maybe it's because I no longer live according to their arranged identity; maybe it's Because, three of them died because of us; or maybe it was because Han Chen and I finally got together again, and the Black Shield team decided to investigate the truth of that year." She raised her eyes and looked at Xiao Zhuan: "So this battle, It's finally here."
Xiao Zhuan was speechless for a while.
Su Mian threw away the cigarette butt, put her hands on her knees, and stopped looking at him: "Xiao Zhuan, you go first, I'll just be quiet for a while. Don't tell Han Chen what I said to you just now. I don't want him to worry."
"...Oh." Xiao Zhuan nodded silently and backed out.

After Xiao Zhuan left, Su Mian froze for a while before jumping off the pile of boxes. Open the windows again for ventilation. After confirming that there was no obvious smoke smell on his body, he walked towards the door.
She opened the door, and outside the door was an empty corridor. It was past one o'clock and no one was outside. She just took a half step out, and suddenly she was stunned.
On the wall outside the door, leaning against a person.
Han Chen put his hands in his trouser pockets and turned to look at her, his dark eyes like a bottomless sea.
I don't know how long he has been standing here.
Su Mian understood as soon as she turned her head. He told Xiao Zhuan not to tell Han Chen, but now that guy is dead set on Han Chen, he will definitely report it when he turns around.
Su Mian didn't speak for a while, and he didn't speak either.
Thinking of every sentence Xiao Zhuan recited to him just now: her fear of s; her interpretation of s' intentions; she hid in a small dark room, smoking smouldering cigarettes one after another, afraid and sad...
Han Chen only felt a chaotic and cold airflow echoing in his chest. He stood up straight, reached out and pulled this stubborn and weak woman into his arms.
Su Mian's hand lightly grabbed the shirt on his chest, feeling his breath and temperature, and said nothing.
"Five years ago, I was 22 years old and I lost you. It was me, Han Chen, who was young and stupid. I'm sorry for you."
He said these words in a low and ruthless tone, and Su Mian immediately raised her head and looked at him distressedly, "What did you say, how can you blame you? I never blame you."
The black jacket made his face even paler and colder. His neck was long and straight, his head lowered, staring straight at her.
"I blame myself. 27-year-old Han Chen, I won't lose you again." He reached out and clasped her chin, "Don't be afraid, there is me. I will bring s to justice, and I will let the seven-member team not Re-exist. Nothing will separate the two of us, Han Chen will be by your side for the rest of his life. I can say it, I can definitely do it."
Su Mian immediately wrapped her arms around his neck and her eyes were wet: "Han Chen... Han Chen... I'm sorry, I'm sorry! I'm not afraid anymore! What am I afraid of! I'm sorry!"
She didn't know why she wanted to apologize, but she just wanted to apologize. Han Chen lowered his head and kissed her, blocking all her words.
At this moment of blue sky and daylight, the entire cold city seemed to be silent. Han Chen held her in his arms and stood in the corner of the city, just like every day before, just like every year before.

When the two returned to the office, it was still lunch break and did not go to work. Xiao Zhuan was still hiding in the small conference room and didn't show up. He was looking down at the information with a cold face, while Nagging was taking a nap with the file in his hand. One inadvertently knocked his head on the computer, and immediately cheered up to read the file.
Han Chen and Su Mian had just returned to their seats and sat down when a clerk from the administrative department walked in: "Team Han, we have your courier."
Everyone looked up, including Su Mian. Because Han Chen rarely receives couriers, except for business transactions.
Han Chen also looked at the things in the clerk's hand. It was a rectangular cardboard box, quite big. He took over the receipt from the clerk, and caught a glimpse of the courier slip, which did not fill in the sender's information. The recipient's message was handwritten, and the handwriting was crooked and familiar. And it is the same city express.
His eyes narrowed slightly.
"Nagging, take pictures. Cold noodles, bring a knife here."
As soon as these words came out, everyone else stood up. Su Mian walked up to him, and her face changed slightly when she saw the handwriting: "It's the word a."
Because of the explosion, all items entering the police station must go through security checks. So it's definitely not a bomb here. Han Chen weighed it lightly, it was quite heavy, rustling, not liquid.
He and Nagga put on masks and gloves, and the others stepped back. The knife slid lightly, and the carton was slashed open. Nag then use a thin metal stick to lift the lid of the box.
Everyone was startled when they saw what was in the box.
Nothing toxic or harmful leaked out. But a box full of...
Xin Jia's photo.
Strictly speaking, not a photo. Instead, they were small square sealed plastic bags, which were very similar to cold granules. On the surface of the bag, Xin Jia is all printed on it. In the photo, she is wearing a long dress, long hair and a shawl, smiling, which is actually lifelike. And it's full of the same photo, which gives people a weird and creepy feeling.
Su Mian frowned immediately. Although she didn't understand the intention of the seven-member group, she was a little disgusted by sending these items printed with Xin Jia to Han Chen by name. Han Chen's eyes were dark and he didn't speak.
Wearing gloves, Nagga picked up one of the bags, shook it, and listened in his ear: "It looks like something granular inside, it really looks like medicine."
"Send it to the appraisal department immediately," Han Chen said.

The group of seven finally shot again, but made such an unruly move. What kind of medicine are they selling in the gourd
By this evening, there was an answer.
The forensic department first came to the news: those are really potions, and the ingredients have been tested for several common antidotes. However, what kind of poison is aimed at and what effect it has, still needs to be further identified.
At 8 or 9 o'clock in the evening, Zhou Xiaozhuan, who has always been following the Internet, was the first to discover the problem: "Something happened! There was a mass poisoning incident in Beichen Community in the north of the city. More than 50 citizens have been poisoned and sent to the hospital. The cause of the poisoning is unknown. !"
He turned the computer screen around, towards everyone. Han Chen and the others all lowered their heads and stared.
"What does this mean?" Naggar was the first to scold, "Should you send us the antidote first, then poison it, and let us detoxify it? Playing with us?"
Han Chen stood up straight, his eyes were cold, and he didn't speak. And Su Mian turned her head to look at his outline and remained silent.
No, not playing Black Shield, not teasing.
Poisoning dozens of citizens directly, the seven-member group probably has no interest or disdain to do it. And send the antidote to Han Chen, then Han Chen will use the antidote printed with Xin Jia's photo to save the citizens.
This is... Is this...
Tribute to Xin Jia!
Only perverts can come up with this kind of memorial service.
So, their final big case begins.
Begin with a tribute to the deceased.
Su Mian was dazed, and what Han Chen said today echoed in his mind: The punishment in the early stage is for the harsher punishment in the later stage. Before and after the crime, there must be a connection.
Now, it is not known what they will do next. Is it to create a larger explosion, or to poison more lives as a threat to the police, or to carry out bloody and intensive murders like in the past
But in the early stage, one of the things a, l, and r did the most was to create fear for the public and her. So, what Su Mian can be sure of is that in the future, no matter what method they use, they will bring unprecedented fear to the citizens, this city, and her.
