As soon as they approached the edge of the cliff, they smelled a faint smell of rust in the wind blowing from the cliff.
The two looked at each other, and their expressions suddenly became serious——
There is a problem here!
It had snowed the night before, and now most of the grass was covered with snow.
Gao Huanyu stepped carefully on the grass under his feet and carefully observed the surrounding environment.
But the next second, Liu Jun, who was following behind him, slipped and fell down with a thud, screaming "Ouch".
Gao Huanyu quickly turned around to check on his condition:
"Are you okay, Brother Liu?"
Liu Jun grimaced in pain and waved his hands at him with a depressed look on his face:
"It's okay, I just didn't notice the hidden ice on the ground and slipped..."
Before he could finish his words, Gao Huanyu grabbed the wrist of his hand that was still dancing in the air.
Gao Huanyu's sudden action scared Liu Jun:
"Xiao Gao, what's wrong?"
Gao Huanyu's pupils flickered. He first stared intently at Liu Jun's palm, then lowered his head to the place where he fell. After a moment, he let go of his hand and said solemnly:
"Brother Liu, we found the location where the body was dumped."
When Liu Jun heard what he said, his face suddenly changed. He immediately lowered his head to look at his palm, and he almost vomited on the spot because of disgust.
There was a handful of snow and mud on the ground in his palm. The wet mud was originally black and there was nothing special about it. However, the warmth from his palm melted the snow, causing the blood clots that had already solidified in the wet mud to flow down his arm along with the snow water, which looked extremely terrifying.
Liu Jun hurriedly shook off the dirt on his hands, but the blood stains on them could not be shaken off, which made him feel sick.
What made Liu Jun even more devastated was that when he stood up from the ground, he found that his entire pants were stained with bloody mud, and his whole body exuded a disgusting smell of rotten blood.
Liu Jun's face turned pale with fright. This didn't look like a corpse dumping scene at all, it was a murder scene!
Gao Huanyu found a branch and gently swept away the snow nearby. He took out gloves and a plastic bag from his pocket, squatted down, picked up some soil from the ground, and put it into the plastic bag so that he could see more clearly.
Sure enough, the mud in the plastic bag was the same as the wet mud on Liu Jun's body, and melted blood was constantly seeping out of it.
"I see!"
A gleam of light flashed in Gao Huanyu's eyes, and his expression suddenly became a little excited.
If it weren't for the freezing cold, Liu Jun would have felt so disgusted that he would have wanted to take off his bloodstained pants and throw them away right then and there. After hearing Gao Huanyu say that he knew, he could only suppress the extreme discomfort in his heart and asked:
"Xiao Gao, what do you know?"
Gao Huanyu looked around and said firmly:
"I know why there's blood only here and nowhere else."
Liu Jun hadn't reacted yet, so he asked casually:
"Why?"
Gao Huanyu had a complicated and solemn expression:
"Because the wounds on the body were caused after it was moved to this location."
Liu Jun was stunned for a moment. His brain was a little slow to react. After carefully considering Gao Huanyu's words for a while, he was shocked.
What Xiao Gao meant was that the criminal first strangled the person to death, then carried him to this location and slashed him with a sharp weapon over forty times?!
The person was already dead, yet they still carried out such bloody and cruel violence a second time. How deep must the hatred be?!
This murderer is either a bloodthirsty serial killer or a complete lunatic!
......
Lu Zhan took some antipyretics and spent the whole night in a daze with nightmares until a knock on the door woke him up.
A hint of surprise flashed in his eyes. He suddenly stood up, ignoring the dizziness at the moment, and struggled to walk over to open the door. The light in his eyes dimmed in the next second.
"...Why is it you?"
Yao Wenbin frowned and grabbed Lu Zhan's arm, dragging him back to the bed while saying unhappily:
"If it's not me, who do you think it is?"
Lu Zhan closed his eyes and didn't want to talk to him.
But even though he didn't say anything, he couldn't stop Yao Wenbin from talking:
"I know this even if you don't tell me. You think it's Xiao Shao, right? Xiao Shao has a job, so how can he be with you all day long?"
"But they still care about you. They called me early this morning and said your fever hadn't subsided. They asked me to come see you again in the morning and take you to the hospital if the fever still hadn't subsided."
Lu Zhan's face, which had been gloomy just now, immediately regained some brightness:
"She called you? And she said nothing else?"
Yao Wenbin looked at him with a face full of gloating:
"Why are you so nervous? Are you afraid that you've angered your sister-in-law and she won't want you anymore?"
Yao Wenbin rarely saw Lu Zhan react so strongly, so he teased him for a moment. Unexpectedly, Lu Zhan's face suddenly turned ashen, and the corners of his tightly pursed lips trembled slightly, as if he was trying hard to control his emotions.
Yao Wenbin had never seen Lu Zhan look so vulnerable before, and he panicked:
"I was just kidding. Could it be that my predictions really came true?"
Yao Wenbin's words "I don't want you anymore" reminded Lu Zhan of Shao Jingque's words "See you later" when he left last night.
For a moment, I felt a wave of excruciating heart-wrenching pain coming over me, and I couldn't help but close my eyes in pain.
Now he knew it very clearly. Although his mind had forgotten Shao Jingque, his body still remembered her.
When facing Shao Jingque, all his physical reactions were completely different from usual, but before, he stubbornly ignored these signals and insisted on using the worst attitude and words to repeatedly hurt and drive her away, breaking her heart.
Shao Jingque was right. How could someone who loved her treat her like this?
Yao Wenbin looked at Lu Zhan with his eyes closed, somewhat at a loss. His face was silent and sad at the moment, and a little red had already appeared in the corners of his eyes. His eyelashes trembled for a while, and a hot tear slipped from the corner of his eye unexpectedly.
This scared Yao Wenbin to death.
From the time he knew Lu Zhan until now, no matter how hard and tiring the training was, or how heavy and difficult the mission was, he had never seen Lu Zhan shed a tear.
Today he thought Lu Zhan was just sick with a fever, but he didn't expect to see him crying silently.
"Old Lu, don't scare me. What's wrong with you? If you feel uncomfortable, let's go to the hospital. Don't just stand here and endure it!"
As Yao Wenbin spoke, he reached out to touch Lu Zhan's forehead. He suddenly felt strange. He didn't have a fever, so why did he look so uncomfortable?
He didn't dare to delay any longer, and quickly reached out to grab Lu Zhan's arm, trying to help him up from the bed and go to the hospital to see a doctor.
But when he was pulled, Lu Zhan's tears began to fall like unstoppable raindrops.
His movement almost scared Yao Wenbin out of his wits, and he asked anxiously:
"Don't cry! Old Lu, what's wrong with you? If you have something to say, just say it. Don't just cry!"
Lu Zhan lowered his head, his hot tears falling one by one onto the quilt, leaving a dark trail of water. After a long time, he heard a slightly trembling voice saying:
"She doesn't want me anymore."
