Chapter 76 Insomnia
The weather at the beginning of January was deadly cold, and it was the kind of dry cold air, which made people's noses and ears turn red, and there was no snow, which made people feel that this winter had no energy at all.Not long after turning west from the main road in the urban area, there was a mutton shop run by an old couple. Yan Junli put his hands in his coat pockets and walked quickly to the small shop. A bowl of hot mutton soup, no matter how cold the air Can be dispelled.

"Miss Boss, have a bowl of mutton soup."

Behind the counter of the mutton shop was only a woman with gray temples.The woman was wearing presbyopic glasses and holding a newspaper in her hand. It is estimated that there are not many guests at this point, so she took advantage of this time for entertainment.After hearing Yan Junli's voice, she hurriedly closed the newspaper and said, "Here we come." Then she got off the chair and hurried into the back room.

Yan Junli lit a cigarette, squinted his eyes to read the newspaper, there was a piece of news published in an inconspicuous corner, the headline read: City C's criminal investigation captain has repeatedly solved strange cases, and city C will usher in peace Heaven or Criminal Revenge?Just as Yan Junli was about to follow the title, the proprietress came out of the house, holding a steaming bowl of mutton soup in her hand, and said with a friendly smile on her face: "Young man, your mutton soup. The weather is terrible. It's really cold, it doesn't matter if you drink a bowl of mutton soup."

Yan Junli took the mutton soup and thanked the old woman. The steaming porcelain bowl warmed Yan Junli's cold fingers. He held the bowl in his hand for a while before starting to drink it, just as he drank the first mouthful of soup. , the old woman said:
"Oh, young man, you should be more careful when you go out in the future. The world is not very peaceful now."

The old lady probably had no guests and was bored, so she started chatting with Yan Junli.

"What happened?" Yan Junli asked.

"Oh, it's just across the street. There are a lot of policemen around today, it's scary." The old woman frowned, and said, "I don't know what happened, maybe someone died. Tell me, let me Don’t let people have a good New Year, how can such a scary thing happen?”

Yan Junli smiled and comforted the old woman: "There are criminals at any time, and the police will take care of them. Don't worry too much."

"Oh, how can you not be worried." The old woman frowned and said seriously, "My grandson is studying in the school opposite. Oh, it's really scary."

It didn't take long for Yan Junli to finish a bowl of mutton soup. After eating the hot soup, he felt alive again in an instant.He counted out a ten-yuan RMB from his wallet and handed it to the proprietress, who put away the money in a pleasant manner.

"Go slowly on the road."

Yan Junli waved to the proprietress, wrapped his coat tightly, and strode towards the opposite school.From a distance, you can see that the school has been cleaned up, and there are many curious children around outside, but they were all sent back by the police who were in charge of cleaning up, and they could only lie helplessly outside the railing.Yan Junli got through the yellow warning line, and a policeman glared at him with threatening eyes. Yan Junli took out the police badge from his jacket pocket, and the little policeman nodded in understanding.

After crossing the cordon, you will find the main teaching building soon after walking inside.Yan Junli bypassed the main entrance of the main teaching building and came to the shadow behind the building.

"Captain Yan, why did you come here?"

Before Yan Junli approached, he heard Li Hong complaining: "Why does it take so long to go to the toilet, didn't you fall in?"

Yan Junli laughed "hehe" twice, then trotted two steps energetically, and walked into the middle of the police: "Oh, people have three urgencies, do you understand, the captain is also a human being. Besides, it's just such a case, why can't you handle it without me?" ?"

In front of them was a male corpse lying on the ground. The head of the corpse was deformed, blood flowed all over the floor, and all parts were fractured and distorted due to high-altitude impact. It looked like he had jumped from the roof of the teaching building. Down.

"Any results?"

Li Hong raised his chin, probably because he didn't want to take out his hands because it was too cold outside: "He has an ID card and a wallet in his clothes to confirm his identity. He is a physics teacher in this school, and his name is Liang Pengcheng. I just asked someone to inquire about it." After a while, the teacher suffered from severe depression, and we found a suicide note in his office computer, which probably committed suicide and did not run away.”

Yan Junli nodded without denying it.But he still knelt down and observed the corpse carefully.

"But his clothes are a little strange."

"What's wrong?" Li Hong asked.

Yan Junli raised his head and looked at Li Hong: "Will you come in sportswear when you come to school?"

Li Hong blinked and didn't take it seriously: "Maybe he has this habit. Besides, he wants to commit suicide. Would he still consider what clothes to wear?"

Yan Junli felt that what Li Hong said was reasonable, so he stood up in front of the corpse, and shouted to the policemen: "Simply inspect the scene and clean it up! It's almost Chinese New Year, everyone go home early!"

"Oh!" The policemen all agreed.

"Captain Yan! Do you want to take fingerprints on the deceased's belongings?" A policeman from the forensic department asked beside him.

"Take it, it won't hurt to be careful."

The policeman nodded, and everyone was busy at their posts.Li Hong looked at Yan Junli with his hands in his pockets, and suddenly remembered something and asked, "Hey Captain Yan, where is Dr. Yang? Why haven't I seen anyone recently?"

"He." Yan Junli smiled wryly, "Since he came back from the case of the manor, he has been extremely depressed, and he has no interest in the case. He went back to Minghai Hospital to live a nine-to-five life."

"No way?" Li Hong was a little surprised, "But—"

Before Li Hong finished speaking, the phone in his pocket rang, and Yan Junli looked down at the screen and laughed.

"Say Cao Cao, and Cao Cao's call will come."

There was a police officer whose mouth was broken: "Hey, who's the captain answering the phone?"

Li Hong answered immediately: "My wife's."

Everyone burst into laughter, but Yan Junli glared at him before answering the phone.

"Hey?"

"Hello, Yan Junli. Where are you?" Yang Wenbin's voice sounded lazy.

"There's a case. What?"

Yang Wenbin let out a "hmm", and asked again in a rare way: "What's the case?"

"It's nothing, it's just a suicide case, you won't be interested." Yan Junli said, "What's the matter, the big detective has enough time at home, want to come out and find some cases to solve?"

There was a smile in Yang Wenbin's tone: "I think you are a workaholic who is a workaholic, right? Who discussed the case with you. I called to wish you an early year, and the day after tomorrow is New Year's Eve."

Yan Junli was taken aback, a little embarrassed: "That's right... time flies so fast, before you know it, it's almost New Year's Eve."

"Do you want to go back to your hometown?" Yang Wenbin knew that Yan Junli's hometown was not too close to City C, and he might not be able to go back in such a short time.

"I won't come back." As expected, Yan Junli sighed, "I may be needed here at any time, so where can I go back. I just make a phone call every year to say New Year's greetings."

The other end of the phone hesitated for a moment, then cleared his throat: "Then why don't you come to my place to celebrate the New Year?"

"You? You and Uncle Zhu?" Yan Junli was flattered by the invitation, "Then why bother..."

"What's so embarrassing or embarrassing, anyway, I spend the Chinese New Year with Uncle Zhu every year, so it's boring, and it's nice to have a little more fun when you come, isn't it?"

Yan Junli thought for a while, and did not refuse again: "Well, since you have said so, I will not be polite. Then again, how are you doing recently?"

Yang Wenbin's voice suddenly became very tense: "How about what?"

Yan Junli frowned: "What do you say, I haven't seen you for almost a month, and you didn't say anything, and you didn't call. I care about you and you don't want to?"

"No, I'm fine."

Yan Junli noticed something was wrong, took a deep breath, and asked, "Yang Wenbin, tell me the truth, where are you now?"

"Uh...of course it's a hospital."

"Okay, then are you 'sitting' in the hospital, or 'lying down' in the hospital?" Yan Junli said, suppressing his anger.

The moment Yang Wenbin met Yan Junli's eyes, he felt so embarrassed that he wanted to find a crack in the ground.Yan Junli was not a good visitor, and the expression on his face was not very good-looking. As soon as he entered the ward, he sat down on the bed and began to criticize his partner.

"Did you put yourself in the ward during the Chinese New Year? You said that you, a doctor, have been admitted to the hospital for countless times. It is really unprecedented. Tell me, what's going on with you this time?"

Yang Wenbin avoided Yan Junli's eyes: "I said it's okay, but you insisted on asking. It's really nothing, it's just ordinary insomnia, just take a look at my legs."

"Insomnia?" Yan Junli repeated, "Are you insomnia? Since when did you start?"

"I haven't been able to sleep well since I came back from the manor." Yang Wenbin sighed, buried his head in the quilt of the hospital bed, and closed his eyes tightly. It was all handsome and handsome, and then I remembered—”

"What he said was wrong!" Yan Junli interrupted Yang Wenbin, "How many times have I told you that the clown deliberately said that in order to disturb your direction!"

"I know, I know." Yang Wenbin sat up from the bed distractedly, and there were very obvious dark circles around his eyelids, "Yan Junli, I'm not a fool, of course I know it's a clown's trick. I Knowing that I was doing the right thing, but that still doesn't change the fact that I indirectly hurt those people."
