him under the stars

Chapter 60
When he woke up with a drowsy feeling, Xu Xing waited for a while before fully returning to consciousness.Looking at the side, there is not even a single wrinkle there, as if there has never been anyone.

She was stunned for a moment, lifted the quilt, and opened the curtains with her slippers on.

The moment the light from outside caught his eyes, Xu Xing turned his head, as if a corner was missing in his heart, the cold wind was blowing in, making him feel chilly and empty.

She stood there, not knowing what she was going to do for a while.

"Ji Ling's death, everyone's death, I will give an explanation."

Except for a sudden kiss, all he left behind was this sentence.Xu Xing turned around and looked at the empty room, suddenly feeling panicked.

The door of the room was suddenly pushed open at this moment, Nuomi withdrew her claws and let out a soft cry.

Xu Xing barely suppressed his emotions, went out to prepare food for her, and when he wanted to order a bowl of porridge for himself, Ji Ling's voice suddenly sounded in his head: "Eat, Huifeng's porridge has been boiled for more than two hours."

She had a sore nose, lightly pressed the lock screen, and sat on the sofa dazedly, watching the glutinous rice wagging its tail to eat.

After Nuomi finished eating, she played alone for a while, until she kept arching Xu Xing's legs, whimpering, Xu Xing suddenly got up as if waking up from a dream, and hurriedly packed up and went out.

She couldn't explain why, but she just had a strong urge to see Han Chen immediately.

The car turned into the police station, and before it stopped, Xu Xing pushed the door down, rushed in, and in a hurry, accidentally bumped into a person at the corner.

"Yes..." The man suddenly paused.

Xu Xing stood up straight and hesitated a little: "...Xu Zhang?"

Xu Zhang had a strange expression on his face, he couldn't help looking away for a moment when he caught Xu Xing's sight, and then forcibly turned back: "Ah, um, what's the matter with you?"

Xu Xing frowned slightly, and didn't bother to find out what was wrong with him, so he asked, "Where is Han Chen?"

"At this time, let's be in the office. I'm going to find him too..." Xu Zhang said halfway, Xu Xing turned and went upstairs, but when he reached the door, he didn't move again.

She didn't even know why she was looking for him, and she didn't know what to say.

Xu Zhang had already caught up at this time, lowered his head, and was holding the folder tightly in his hand. He was about to walk over, but as soon as he took a step, Fu Qi appeared in front of him.

With the computer in his hand as usual, he glanced at them and smiled slightly: "Looking for Team Han?"

"He asked for leave." Fu Qi said, passed Xu Xing, and typed a few times on the keyboard with one hand, as if thinking of something, he stopped and turned back, his voice was calm: "Ji Ling's case..."

He just got up, but Xu Xing's side had already gone downstairs a few steps, and his figure disappeared into the corner.Fu Qi lowered his head again, didn't he see the police leading Ji's father and mother in the hall?

"Friends are so good, but they can't see their parents." Also at the scene that day, their attitude towards Xu Xing was too strange.At the end of Fu Qi's words, he slowly looked away, glanced at Xu Zhang, stayed there for a few seconds, and said, "What's wrong with you?"

"Oh, it's okay." Xu Zhang put away his complicated expression and asked, "Where did the boss go? I can't get through to him even if I call him."

"I'm afraid only Bureau Du knows." Fu Qi laughed and tilted his head slightly: "Let's go, since we're back, let's have a meeting together."

Xu Zhang nodded in response.

conference room.

When Shi Xiaojin saw Xu Zhang, he was pleasantly surprised for a moment, and went up to pat him.Unexpectedly, Xu Zhang didn't respond, he just pulled out the chair and sat down, put the phone by his ear, and saw who he was calling.

After disappearing for so long, he came back with no enthusiasm.

Shi Xiaojin was stunned for a moment, and punched him with a fist.

Xu Zhang turned back and stared at her: "Shi Xiaojin, you can't be a bit feminine."

Shi Xiaojin smiled and said, "Yes, I'm not a woman." After finishing speaking, she sat on the seat without even looking at him.

Xu Zhang's expression froze, and he put down his cell phone. He turned his head and pointed to Yang Cheng with his eyes: What's wrong with her?
Yang Cheng shook his head, this is really a long story, hard to describe.

But Xu Zhang misunderstood it. After thinking about it, he took out a few white rabbit toffee from nowhere, and slid across the table.

But when Xiaojin sat far away on purpose, at the corner of the table, Xu Zhang was afraid of falling and didn't grasp the strength for a while, so Toffee stopped in front of Yao Wan's table next to him.

Xu Zhang: "..."

Yao Wan slightly raised her eyebrows, glanced at him, raised her hand, pressed the candy and brought it to Shi Xiaojin, with a hoarse voice: "It's for you."

Shi Xiaojin looked up at Xu Zhang, and saw that he was in a state of embarrassment, so he calmed down slightly, and took it.

"Thank you." She whispered to Yao Wan.

Yao Wan didn't say anything.

Fu Qi put out the data and knocked on the table. Under the reflection of half-light and half-darkness, his quiet face also took on a trace of solemnity.

"Look, this is a comparison of all the arrested serial murder victims based on the evidence that Team Han found from the orphanage." He pressed the remote control, and the information of all the victims was displayed in a neat order. , "Different occupations, different ages, different genders, and different provinces have no intersection with each other. Apart from... conforming to the murderer's preferences, there is nothing in common."

Yao Wan tapped the pen tip on the paper, and frowned: "It doesn't make sense. So many killers are trained to let them kill at will according to their own preferences? The choice of targets cannot be groundless."

"That's the truth." Fu Qidao: "For example, Huang Jiajia, whose social relationships are so simple that they can be seen at a glance, and who lives at three points and one line every day, can't find any reason to be regarded as a target at all, except for Gao Xuan's preferences."

"Another example is this, Hou Haiyue, even a mental patient..."

The harsh sound of tables and chairs scraping the ground suddenly sounded, interrupting his speech.Holding the mobile phone in his hands, Xu Zhang opened the door and went out without even thinking about an explanation. He walked to the empty corridor before answering: "Boss, you can be regarded as trustworthy. Over there..."

Hearing the howling wind from the phone, he paused.

"I was outside, there was no signal just now." Han Chen asked lightly: "The investigation result came out?"

"Come out." Xu Zhang looked serious: "There is something wrong with that Xu Zhengnan."

Han Chen tightened his hands, and heard him say: "I went to the Nancheng Police Station and found that the file room had been caught on fire, and Xu Zhengnan's case information was also in it. Ask about the relevant case, many policemen involved in the year, retired, and the investigators They were transferred away, and others who know a little bit only know that Xu Zhengnan was taken away for investigation on suspicion of throwing dangerous substances, saying that he secretly developed some irritating and dangerous chemicals."

"Afterwards, I kept inquiring in Nancheng. Before Xu Zhengnan was arrested, the biggest case in Nancheng was a serial murder case. The victims were all five or six-year-old girls, but the nature of the year was classified as a disappearance case. The police followed the direction of abduction. Searching, indeed found a trafficking line, but there is no sign of those girls. I heard from a retired old criminal policeman that when there was no breakthrough, a young policeman proposed to change the direction of investigation to murder, but there was still no evidence. Any clues, the level of criminal investigation at that time was too backward, the police could only think that the child was taken out of the province, and continued to focus on the direction of abduction and trafficking. After that, Xu Zhengnan suddenly had an accident. It is said that a young policeman violated the regulations. It was caused by the forced entry of the search warrant. I went to the policeman’s house, and no one was there. But his son, who was home from college on vacation, remembered that a girl came to him that day.”

Xu Zhang swallowed, and said in a low voice, "It's Xu Xing."

"Not long after Xu Zhengnan was arrested, a school organized a group of children to go on an outing to the mountains. It was also there that when a little boy escaped from the group, he accidentally found someone burying his body. He ran away without seeing his face clearly. The police later found him on the mountain. The corpses of all the victimized girls were taken away, and the case was quickly closed, but the murderer was never caught, but no girl disappeared after that. The details are also in the burnt files. I have not been able to check them, but I found the first As soon as the man was found, judging from his description, the degree of corruption of the corpse was obviously too high."

"Xu Zhengnan committed suicide on his first day in prison. Boss, there are too many things to consider. I think that the serial case of the little girl is inseparably related to him, but no evidence can be found."

The development of dangerous chemicals will not make an excellent criminal policeman take risks and break the law knowingly.After so long, there were no clues about the case, but it happened to be seen by the children on the outing. This was more like trying to get rid of Xu Zhengnan's suspicion.

Han Chen hummed, "After so many years, the possibility of finding evidence is unlikely, so there is no need to investigate further, you don't need to worry about it."

"Don't say that about boss, I am too..." He was also surprised and couldn't help but feel sorry for Xu Xing.

If it really had something to do with Xu Zhengnan... She was no more than two years older than those little girls who were murdered back then!

He held back for a while, let out a sigh, and wanted to say something, but found that the call had already been hung up.

"..." He was speechless for a moment.

Cangshan, outside the house.

Han Chen put down his phone, his lips were drawn into a line, his eyebrows were cold and painful.

This is what Xu Xing has been carefully hiding.When she was a little girl, how did she find out, how did she deal with herself, and how did she decide to inform the police?

He lowered his eyes, his coat flapped and danced in the strong wind, and he was silent for a long time before turning around.

Not far away is a small wooden house, which is also the place where He Yuan stayed during the mission.

When Xu Zhang returned to the meeting room, the meeting was over. Shi Xiaojin was about to sort out the materials and hand them over to Bureau Du, when Fu Qi stopped him: "Xiaojin, please report to someone else. The portrait of the murderer needs you to do it, only the photos from when I was a child, and I want to simulate the appearance of about 40 to [-] years old, is that okay?"

"Heh, is there anything I can't do?" Shi Xiaojin looked like he was about to try.

Sir, Shi Xiaojin finally came in handy!
After hearing this, Xu Zhang took it, "Then I'll take it to Bureau Du."

Before he finished speaking, he was taken aback.

So is Shi Xiaojin.

Xu Zhang's hand was covering the back of her hand, and the rough touch of a man came instantly, with warmth.

Xu Zhang moved his fingers, took the information, and looked disgusted: "It is said that the hand is the second face of a woman. Your two faces are too rough, right?"

When the words fall, people walk away.

Shi Xiaojin: "..."

Fu Qi chuckled, which immediately aroused her glaring eyes. He raised his hand slightly, as a sign of surrender: "It's important."

Shi Xiaojin sat over with puffed mouth, flipped through the photo, his gaze rested on the back of his hand for a moment, and then glanced over again.

The injury on the back of her hand is not for our people?

Damn, Xu Zhang don't try to coax her well even if he gives sugar this time.

Shi Xiaojin took the brush without moving lightly, and lay down on the table to draw. Just as she drew the general outline, there was a sudden noise outside. The image of the car driving out.

Fu Qi grabbed a policeman casually and asked, "What happened?"

"It seems that something happened to Bureau Du, and he is unconscious!" the policeman replied.
