Please Close Your Eyes At Night

Chapter 16: Embarrassed fleeing

Views:

In Li Meilin's office of the Criminal Police Department, I sat on the sofa with a blank face, staring at Li Meilin who was carefully sorting out the copywriting.

About ten minutes later, Li Meilin sorted out the copy and put it on the desk, then got up and spared the desk and walked to the water dispenser to pick up two glasses of plain water.

Li Meilin walked to the sofa opposite me and sat down, and handed me one of the glass of water, but I never took my eyes off her.

"Tell me, why is the real murderer still at large, and the murder case was so hastily announced to the outside world?"

I opened my mouth to break the silence. I couldn’t understand why Yang Biao was clearly wronged, why the police suddenly announced the case was closed, and the alleged murderer was Yang Biao.

Li Meilin lowered her eyes and pondered for a while, then raised her head and looked at me: "This is what the superiors mean, I'm just executing orders."

"What do you mean by the superiors?" I sneered, "I can't catch the real murderer, I can't find the murder weapon, and I can't find the head of the deceased, so just casually looking for a scapegoat to close the case? You police? The methods are truly admirable.”

Being ridiculed by me, Li Meilin's pretty face became a little ugly, and she took a deep breath before saying to me again: "The superior leader did this after consulting with your school leaders. The final decision was made. This murder happened in On the campus, if the investigation continues, it will not only make people panic, but also more innocent people may die one after another."

My face changed, and I said solemnly, "Yang Biao is also innocent."

"What about the evidence? You keep saying that Yang Biao is not the murderer, but you can't produce any evidence to prove his innocence. And all the evidence we have in the police's possession points to Yang Biao as the murderer."

When Li Meilin said this, I was at a loss, but I couldn't find a way to refute her words.

Although I couldn't accept this result in my heart, what Li Meilin said was not without reason. I am not Bao Qingtian, so I cannot appeal for Yang Biao. If because of my insistence on continuing the investigation, if innocent people die one after another, then I will become the real indirect murderer of them.

Li Meilin sighed and comforted me: "Luo Chao, don't blame yourself too much, Yang Biao's death has nothing to do with you. You want to save him, but the murderer is too cunning, we didn't expect it. "

"You don't have to console me, I'm fine. Since there's nothing else, I'll go first."

I got up and walked out with a lonely look. When I walked to the door, I stopped slowly. I didn't look back. I asked in a flat tone, "In your heart, have you always believed that Yang Biao is the murderer?"

"Yes!" Li Meilin answered without any hesitation!

When I left, Li Meilin didn't hold back. In fact, she knew that I needed to be alone.

I walked out of the criminal police team and walked aimlessly on the street. Because my former killer identity was not visible, I didn't have many friends in this city of Fengdu.

I'm not a person who likes to give up halfway, but this time I really dare not continue to investigate this case lightly. At this time, I suddenly thought of a person, a person who might answer my doubts.

I took out my phone and dialed the seldom contacted number.

Soon, a cold mature female voice came from the mobile phone: "Is there anything you want to do with me?"

"Well, I want to talk to you."

There was silence on the other end of the phone, and then suddenly came a sentence: "The case about the headless female corpse?"

I was stunned for a moment and said honestly, "Yes!"

The social sensation caused by the headless female corpse case on campus was not small, and it was not surprising that she could guess.

"Come to my office."

"Okay, see you later."

Before I could hang up my phone, there was a sudden roar of a motorbike behind me, and then a hand grabbed my phone. Even though I held my phone hard when I realized something was wrong, it was snatched away due to the motorcycle's great inertia.

Looking at the backs of the two men riding motorcycles walking away, my face was gloomy and scary. Although this is not a capsize in the gutter, it is a great shame to me. If the other party was the killer who came to assassinate me, I might have fallen to the ground by this time.

A sneer gradually appeared on the corner of my mouth. It seemed that my peaceful days had passed for too long, and even the most basic sense of reaction had deteriorated.

I originally thought that after meeting my friends first, I would use the location system to trace the whereabouts of my mobile phone later. But at this moment, a bold speculation suddenly popped into my mind, whether the two men who robbed my mobile phone were sent by the mysterious murderer.

There was a fluke in my heart for no reason, whether it is or not, I would rather chase the wrong than let it go!

I raised my left hand and tapped the bracelet a few times, and a flashing red dot appeared on the screen. The bracelet I was carrying was not an ordinary bracelet, but a satellite receiver communicator that Li Meilin didn't know where it came from.

I originally planned to contact Li Meilin through the special contact method of the bracelet, but I gave up after thinking about it. She disapproved of me continuing to investigate the matter. If I just said that my phone was robbed, I would probably provoke a lot of ridicule from her.

I reached out and stopped a taxi, and the driver asked me, "Little brother, where are you going?"

"You can just follow the route I indicated."

Seeing that my face was not good, the driver stopped talking and started tracking the departing motorcycle according to the route I indicated.

The more I traced back, the more solemn my expression became, because the motorcycle turned out to be heading towards Fengda.

I saw that the two men who robbed me of my mobile phone ended up walking into a hotel called Yinhe Accommodation. I was afraid of being scared by the grass, so I didn't chase in the first time, but hid in a secluded corner and waited.

About five minutes later, a hunchbacked man with a hat and a mask came out of the hotel. This man's attire was exactly the same as the hunchbacked man described by the courier brother and the funeral home staff.

Are you going to take him down in one fell swoop? If you catch him, you may be able to find the real murderer of Xu Yuanyuan through him.

Just when I was hesitating, the hunchback man had already started the motorcycle, and I could clearly see that he even raised his middle finger at where I was hiding.

I was found out

When I rushed over desperately, the hunchback man slammed the gas pedal, and the motorcycle rushed out roaring like an arrow from the string.

With two legs, I can't catch up with the motorcycle anyway. At this moment, I happened to see a BMW slowly parked in the parking space, and a middle-aged man stepped out of the car.

Not caring about anything else, I rushed over and snatched the key from the middle-aged man's hand, and said loudly to him: "Lend your car to use it."

Seeing the car keys being robbed, the middle-aged man yelled at me and waved his fists. Time is running out, how can I spend time here with him? A sharp swinging leg kicked the middle-aged man to the ground.

I drove the BMW I grabbed and followed the hunchback man along the way according to the flashing red dots on the wristband. In the end, the hunchbacked man stopped on a bridge. What made me even more unexpected was that he forcibly lifted the motorcycle over his head and threw it into the deep water under the bridge.

I parked the BMW, got out of the car and walked towards the hunchback man with firm and strong steps. I was really surprised by the strong arm strength he showed before.

I stopped when I was five steps away from the hunchback man, and my eyes fell on the phone he was playing with in his right hand, which was the one I had stolen from me earlier.

"Where did you hide Xu Yuanyuan's head?" I narrowed my eyes slightly. Although I was not afraid of the hunchbacked man in front of me, I was not absolutely sure that I could defeat him.

"I didn't expect you to be young, and your thinking ability to solve cases is quite good." The hunchback man was still playing with my mobile phone, and suddenly the topic changed, "It's just that this time you have fallen for my trick, the real one. The murderer was in the Galaxy Hotel at the time."

"Do you think I will believe what you said?" My eyes twinkled, I don't know how credible the hunchback man's words are, but after what he said, I don't think this possibility is completely ruled out.

The hunchback man suddenly threw the phone to me and shrugged: "It doesn't matter if you believe it or not, I just want to tell you that the case of the headless female corpse is over. If you continue to investigate, not only you, but also More and more innocent people are dying one after another."

"Are you threatening me?" I suddenly took a step forward, my eyes locked on the hunchbacked man.

"Whether it's threatening you, you can go to the Yinhe Hotel now to find out. Oh, by the way, Li Meilin must be talking to you soon."

Coincidentally, just as the hunchback man finished speaking, my cell phone rang at the right time. While preventing the hunchbacked man from attacking me, I glanced out of the corner of my eye. It was really Li Meilin who was calling.

My heart suddenly tensed, did something happen again

Seeming to see through my thoughts, the hunchback man laughed loudly: "Hurry up and answer the phone, Officer Li has something very important for you."

I snorted and resolutely connected the phone. Before I could speak, Li Meilin's cold voice came over: "I told you not to continue investigating this case, why don't you listen? Two innocent people were killed."

My brain suddenly froze, and two more people were killed? Could it be the two men who robbed my phone

After hanging up the phone, I instantly shot my cold knife-like gaze at the hunchbacked man, and asked coldly, "You killed those two people who robbed my phone?"

The hunchback man nodded: "That's right! But I didn't intend to kill them at first, but I accidentally discovered that you were following them. So, for unnecessary trouble, I had to reluctantly kill them both. But then again, they both died indirectly in your hands."

My hands were clenched into fists. It seems that the reason why the school leaders reached a consensus with Li Meilin's boss must have been threatened from outside.

"Don't you want to go back and see, who are the two people who died?"

"I want you to pay for the dead!"

"Maybe I'm going to disappoint you." The hunchback man suddenly had a pistol in his hand, and the bright muzzle silently pointed at me.

"Say goodbye to this world!"

The hunchback man pulled the trigger indifferently, not even giving me a chance to speak. My body also jumped out in the blink of an eye, and my body functions were almost fully utilized.

In this situation without any cover, if it is almost impossible to subdue the hunchbacked man by rushing over with bullets, I have no choice but to escape.

The moment I jumped off the bridge, there was a sudden sharp pain in my left arm, and I knew I had been shot. I was silently thankful in my heart, fortunately it wasn't a fatal injury, otherwise I would really have to explain this life here this time.

The first confrontation with the hunchback man turned out to be a failure in this embarrassing way of escaping, which was unexpected to me.
