Chapter 238 Police Officer's Suspect

"The police have announced the characteristics of the suspect. Please be vigilant. The suspect Xia is between 172 and 175 cm tall, thin, often calls himself 'Xiao Xia', between 20 and 25 years old, good at making friends online, cunning and cautious, good at disguise, real gender unknown, can appear as both male and female..."

Ying Shiyu unconsciously read out the contents on the screen, and her palms became colder and colder.

She was so shocked that she was speechless for a moment. It took her a while to slowly exhale the breath that was blocked in her chest. She was so frightened that there was still a chill in her heart.

Ying Shiyu couldn't help but change her hand to hold the phone. She rubbed her palm on her clothes to wipe off the cold sweat, opened the door, walked quickly to the kitchen, and gave a hug to her father who was cooking and her mother who was cutting vegetables.

"Oh, you naughty child, be careful, I cut my hand..." Mother Zhuang was caught off guard by the sudden attack, but when she saw her daughter hugging her husband again, she couldn't help but worry, "What's wrong?"

Mr. Zhuang also turned around with a shovel in his hand, with the same worry on his face.

Ying Shiyu smiled and shook her head, then trotted back to the room, feeling particularly happy.

Before, she had never felt real about the danger she might be in. Although the police came to her house and told her that the person she met might be a human trafficker, she panicked, but that feeling was quickly diluted by time. She would occasionally feel angry about why Xiao Xia was that kind of person, but now she knew what kind of crisis she had narrowly escaped. Perhaps if it was a little later, her parents would only be able to see her dead body.

Fortunately, she is still alive. Ying Shiyu took a deep breath and quickly posted a reminder online, because Xiao Xia is really good at confusing people, and she hopes that the murderer can be caught as soon as possible. After receiving the special reminder from the police to pay attention to safety, Ying Shiyu's mood was no longer just urgent. She wished Xiao Xia could be arrested today.

The sun sank completely below the horizon, and the last ray of afterglow disappeared.

Lin Zhi turned on the light in the study and continued to sit in front of the computer. The page was exactly Ying Shiyu's post.

The police announcement did not mention the important key point of birthday, and Ying Shiyu was not aware of this, so when faced with questions from netizens during the reminder process, she also expressed confusion. She didn't know why she was chosen.

This certainly couldn't be an official negligence. Lin Zhi understood the concerns after thinking about it.

There are too many people born on this day, which can easily cause them to panic excessively. Moreover, once this characteristic is made public, copycat murderers may follow. Not only that, if the public learns that there are other murderers committing crimes, the situation will probably become even more difficult to control.

But this would probably make Xia Chi angry.

The current situation is not good. According to his and Qiu Huo's previous plan, they intended to tamper with the serialized novel to anger Xia Chi, force Xia Chi to talk to him, and lure her to show up. However, Greyhound's intervention and the spread of public opinion accelerated the process.

According to Xia Chi's personality, she would most likely take action again to protect her work. If nothing unexpected happens, she would contact him.

This meant that someone was in danger, but this time he had no way of knowing who the victim was.

Lin Zhi pinched her eyebrows and closed her dry eyes.

01 reminded: [Host, you should eat something, otherwise your stomach will hurt. 】

01The caring little assistant is online. The host of this world is sick and has an irregular diet. It is all thanks to the mission target’s forced love that he eats well.

Lin Zhi responded, but did not take any other action.

He was not hungry and had no appetite at all. The withdrawal reaction from the drugs made his emotions unstable and he was a little annoyed with everything in the outside world.

01: [Host………]

01's voice was swallowed back by it. The mirror on the table reflected the young man's face. His index finger gently pressed against his lips, signaling it to be silent.

Lin Zhi's eyes moved slightly, and his gaze fell on the mirror. He looked at himself and clearly felt the emotional storm surrounding him.

It is not caused by external factors, not because of a certain event or a certain person, there is no reason, it is out of control, and the emotions are constantly unbalanced.

Lin Zhi stood up and opened the door of the study, but did not go to the kitchen as 01 expected. Instead, he stopped in the living room and opened the drawer of the coffee table, which contained the medicine he had picked up from the hospital last time.

Because I haven't taken it for a while, there are still quite a few left.

Lin Zhi took out the medicines in different packages and placed them on the coffee table. He had seen the ingredients on them a long time ago, but he was not a professional in the relevant field and was not familiar with these slightly obscure names. He simply memorized them.

Taking these drugs to suppress the disease will have side effects, such as loss of appetite, drowsiness, etc. If it weren't for his arrival, this body would have become worse due to the repeated effects of the disease and drugs.

Lin Zhi knew that as long as he took the medicine, the constantly erupting volcano in his body would be extinguished and fall asleep, but at the same time his emotions would fall into extreme laziness, and he would be bored and tired of everything. In this situation, Lin Zhi would choose the former to keep himself awake, and he would make such a choice even more if there were enemies or they were by his side.

After all, when you lose interest in anything, even the most intense feeling will become lukewarm. This was how Lin Zhi felt when facing Qiu Huo after taking the medicine before, and he didn't like it.

Lin Zhi slowly walked into the master bedroom bathroom and turned on the hot water.

At ten o'clock in the evening, Qiu Huo and his men, who had arranged the secret line, were on their way back.

Zhou Erhe followed the police to a village. Although he was impulsive, he was also an experienced police officer. He got on the village bus in rustic clothes and did not alarm the people on the greyhound.

Of course, he didn't know at first that he was following a greyhound, but Qiu Huo asked him to check someone, and he followed the clues to get here.

Qiu Huo lit a cigarette, his eyes dark in the night.

After an afternoon of exploration, this place seems to be fine on the surface, but if you look closely, you can still detect clues.

Every few days, several identical cars would pick up people from this place and leave again the next day. The people who came were different each time, just like a □□ rally.

Zhou Erhe followed those cars here, but because he didn't follow too closely, he didn't find the other party's specific location.

If it were just this, Zhou Erhe would not have described it as a big business. When he was following the car, he saw a woman in the car, but when he asked about it, the man said he had never seen a woman go out.

Thinking about it this way, it doesn't look like a □□, but rather a small red building on Zhenzhenzaka.

After disguising themselves and visiting, they found the approximate hiding place of the other party, in a townhouse residential area. There was someone sitting in a small shop at the door watching, so Zhou Erhe and his friends did not get too close.

He exhaled smoke from his mouth and recalled the information in his memory.

The leader of the Greyhound gang was engaged in transnational human trafficking. He sold people abducted in the country across the border, and then smuggled women from poor foreign countries into the country. These people had no one to turn to for help compared to women in the country, so they were more likely to be obedient, and many of them volunteered.

The reason Greyhound was spared from liquidation when the police took action was because he was in charge of a ship of "cargo" at the border. Greyhound also went to the border when he escaped for revenge. Now he has returned here again, and it seems that he has started his old business again. He has also avoided the sales link and directly trapped people here.

Qiu Huo lowered his eyes. He was too young back then and could only watch the murderer run past him. This time he would never let anyone escape again.

Qiu Huo put the cigarette into the ashtray, and rolled the cigarette butt back and forth, not trying to hide the cold expression on his face.

Zhou Erhe, who was originally complaining about how unfair it was for his superiors to parachute in someone else to command him, fell silent subconsciously, not wanting to upset his boss even more.

Qiu Huo noticed it, but didn't say much. He had his own list of personnel transfers in his mind, and he would not bring everyone to his side to be in charge of Greyhound. Wei Yunjun, Zhu Changdong and the others would follow Xia Chi's line.

After a bunch of past work events rolled through her mind, Qiu Huo's longing for her boyfriend had reached its peak.

He wanted to resolve these issues quickly. Not only was Xia Chi staring at Lin Zhi, but even Greyhound was staring at Lin Zhi because of him. Lin Zhi was already sick, and he wanted him to rest well.

When we arrived at the apartment, the clock had already reached eleven.

Qiu Huo noticed something was wrong as soon as he entered the door. The temperature in the house was very low, blurring the boundaries between seasons.

Qiu Huo changed his shoes and saw the 16℃ displayed on the air conditioner in the living room. He frowned inadvertently, turned off the air conditioner, turned around, and in the moonlight, he saw the medicine bottle tilted on the coffee table in the living room, and a few pills fell on the carpet.

This behavior that was inconsistent with Lin Zhi's character made Qiu Huo instantly alert. He quickly walked into the bedroom while calling Lin Zhi's name. As he turned on the bedroom light, Qiu Huo breathed a sigh of relief.

The young man was lying on the bed. He frowned slightly at his voice and then opened his eyes.

Lin Zhi was half sitting with his hands propped up, and heard Qiu Huo ask him, "Have you taken the medicine?"

The same words can have completely different meanings due to different tones. Lin Zhi was a little surprised because Qiu Zui was asking him how he took his medicine today.

He didn't like the side effects of taking medicine, and Qiu Huo knew this. In order to make him relieve his emotions and fall asleep smoothly, Qiu Huo even made him faint.

"No."

"The medicine bottle in the living room fell over and the medicine spilled out."

Seeing Lin Zhi's confusion, Qiu Huo spoke up to explain the reason.

Did the medicine bottle fall over? Strangely, Lin Zhi remembered that he did not open the bottle cap.

Lin Zhi sat up straighter. The system in his mind did not make any sound. This silence seemed to indicate something.

If it was someone else who did it, 01 would definitely remind him.

Lin Zhi suddenly turned her head and found the bedside table empty. The water cup that was originally placed there had turned into fragments on the ground, and the water inside was nowhere to be seen. It must have dried up.

Qiu Huo walked over, picked up some large pieces of debris with his hands, and went to the living room to get a broom to clean up.

Lin Zhi looked at him silently and pressed the swollen and painful solar plexus.

Some images suddenly flashed in his mind. Lin Zhi's breathing paused slightly. He put on his slippers and walked into the bathroom.

Qiu Huo saw the empty bedroom and searched with his eyes. He went into the bathroom and saw Lin Zhi standing in front of the mirror.

Spider-web-like cracks appeared on the mirror on the bathroom sink, and the glass bottle of shampoo was broken into pieces on the floor. The white, sticky, milky shampoo gathered in a small pool on the ground.

Lin Zhi looked down at his palms, recalling the sharp and extreme excitement he felt when destroying something. The feeling of destruction can easily make people fascinated, but his mind feels disgusted, not because of the destruction, but because of emotion. So his brain suppressed these memories that he didn't like and let everything return to calm.

Lin Zhi looked up at the mirror. He had always been rational and restrained. After a long time, he thought he was born that way, but his brain still remembered how he was trained and cultivated.

He once thought that those directions of growth were what he wanted, but now, are they really what he wanted?

However, this kind of life philosophy question only flashed through Lin Zhi's mind. His eyes moved slightly and a smile flowed out of his eyes.

These constituted him anyway, and he had no discomfort.

Qiu Huo took in Lin Zhi's reaction and asked, "Were you happy when you smashed it? Do it again?"

Qiu Huo stretched out his hand and shook it, and Lin Zhi realized that he had taken the shower gel off the shelf and handed it to him without him knowing.

"Hit it, and the whole thing will break into pieces."

Qiu Huo pointed at the force point of the mirror. Although Lin Zhi hadn't made a move yet, he seemed to hear the sound of the entire mirror falling and shattering, which was very satisfying.

"Glass might fly everywhere, but that's okay..."

Qiu Huo held Lin Zhi's hand and swung him forward. The fragments cut him into countless pieces, and Lin Zhi was beside him countless times.

As the debris flew, Lin Zhi heard his whispers.

“Because I will block it.”

He asked, "Do you still have the strength?"

Lin Zhi: “Hmm?”

His question was taken as a tacit agreement, and Qiu Huo picked him up with one hand and walked out.

The man's body actually doesn't smell good, with the smell of dust and sweat, and you can tell how busy he is just by smelling it.

Lin Zhi was carried to the kitchen, and Qiu Huo bent down and took out a pile of dishes.

"Since you want to smash something, then smash it to your heart's content."

When he is sober and rational, Qiu or Pa Lin Zhi will not do this.

Lin Zhi sat at the cooking table and blinked.

Qiu Huo raised his eyebrows slightly: "Do you want to demonstrate again?"

The plate fell from his hand and broke into pieces in an instant.

He stuffed one into Lin Zhi's hand, Qiu Huo: "Let go."

——Bang!

The porcelain plate broke, making a crisp sound.

Qiu Huo thought that throwing them one by one was too slow, so he asked Lin Zhi to push all the ones on the table down.

Amidst these sounds, Lin Zhi slowly smiled.

It was a smile without any purpose, neither innocent nor utilitarian, it was just a smile because of being pleased.

"You have a beautiful smile."

Qiu came closer, kicked some of the garbage away with his feet, and stepped on the fragments to get close to Lin Zhi.

He unbuckled his belt and asked again, "Do you still have the strength?"
