Life as a police officer in America

Chapter 642 The Smile of the Ranger
At three o'clock in the morning, Copperfield drove to the edge of the virgin forest near the furniture factory.

His car drove into a quiet forest path wide enough for a car to pass through.

Copperfield's eyes were wide open, and the palms holding the steering wheel were wet and full of cold sweat.

He put the pistol on the co-pilot's seat, the safety of the gun has been opened, and the gun is full of bullets.

The sides of the car body scraped against branches and low bushes, making a rustling sound, and the visibility of the car seemed to be right under the nose.

Copperfield knew that there was a wooden house at the end of the road, and he searched for this place on the night of NO.18 last month.

The forest ranger, Tyyakin, was still asleep. She was weaving a bamboo basket. There was no electricity in the wooden house, and only one candle was burning.

The facilities in the wooden house are very simple, and everything looks so primitive.

On the wooden table, there is a row of nine stone sculptures, all of which are similar in appearance, basically the same as those seen in Copperfield's video.

Next to the stone carving, there is a gloomy dagger.

She heard the sound of a car engine.

A strange smile appeared on her face, she grabbed something from a porcelain pot and wiped it on her face, then picked up the dagger and blew out the candle.

Copperfield parked his car in front of this small, lonely, dilapidated wooden building, and took out his pistol.

He approached with slow steps.

Little by little, he slowly approached the wooden door.

He pricked up his ears to listen for a while, then raised his foot, and kicked the wooden door down.

Boom, boom, Copperfield fired five shots at the bump on the bed in the hazy light.

He used his mobile phone to light up, but found that there was no one on the bed, only a quilt.

Copperfield walked out of the cabin and looked around with a gun in his hand.

"I know you're nearby, come out and let's talk."

No one responded to him, only the treetops roared in the wind.

He didn't dare to stay longer, and walked towards the vehicle in a backward way.

Get in the car, lock the door, start the car, and Copperfield leaves quickly.

Copperfield relaxed when the vehicle left the country road and got onto the main road. He was driving very fast, and he wanted to leave quickly.

A bridge appeared ahead, and he drove onto it, reaching for a cigarette.

He put the cigarette in his mouth and was about to light it. At this moment, he saw a person sitting in the rear seat in the rearview mirror of the car. She was looking at him.

Her face was hideous and hideous, and her eyes were ghostly in the night.

"Are you looking for me?"

Copperfield screamed in fright, twisted the steering wheel, and the vehicle hit the low protective railing of the bridge. The protective railing was broken, and half of the vehicle was suspended on the bridge.

"my leg!"

Copperfield was pinned in the driving position, though he wanted to, his legs were pinched by the deformed steering wheel.

The woman opened the back door, looked at the stars, and threw the dagger into the river.

She came to the back of the car and pushed the car with both hands.

Copperfield yelled in horror and despair: "No, damn it, no, you can't do this, we can discuss it, help."

The vehicle plunged into the river with a bang, splashing high waves, and the vehicle disappeared into the river.

She walked slowly down the bridge, came to the embankment, and washed her face.

At dawn, a large truck passed by. She stood on the side of the road and waved. The truck driver stopped and stuck out his head: "Beauty, what can I do for you?"

"Can I give you a ride?"

"You have to tell me what your name is first."

"Telyakin."

"Very well, come on up, beauty, it is really my honor to meet you, you are so tempting."

At eleven o'clock in the morning, Wang Dengming and the detective drove the police car up the forest trail. They learned from the farm by the woods that there used to be a forest ranger here. She has been a forest ranger for many years. .

Teriakin was preparing her lunch when Wang Dengming found the place.

"Hello, you're Teriakin?"

"Yes, officer, what can I do for you?"

Tyyakin wore her long black-gray hair tied back, giving her an extra-vigorous look.

She is wearing green jeans and a green denim jacket, her bright eyes are like stars in the night sky, her healthy and delicate face is as beautiful as mountain flowers, and her smile is as warm as spring breeze.

"Beauty, it would be great if you could get a little fatter."

Wang Dengming laughed.

"Too fat to walk."

"How long have you been guarding the forest here?"

"Almost nine years."

"Is it the local finance that pays you wages?"

"Yes."

"Can I have a look around your cabin?"

"Of course, sir, please."

Wang Dengming walked into the wooden house, and on the wooden table, a row of conspicuous stone carvings were placed on the table.

"Officer, what's wrong with the stone carving?"

"Where did these stone carvings come from? Did you buy them?"

"No, there are a lot of them in the woods. I thought they were worth collecting, so I collected some. Do you like them? If you like them, I may consider giving you one."

Wang Dengming quickly waved his hands.

"It's convenient, officers, you're here because"

Wang Dengming: "Walk around casually. I heard that there is a forest ranger station in the center of the forest. Let's take a look. Have you ever seen one?"

"A what, officer."

"Nothing, um, you're preparing lunch and you look like a master cook."

"Thank you."

The inspector looked away from the row of stone sculptures and said, "Can you treat us to lunch?"

"of course."

Wang Dengming smiled and said: "Thank you for your kindness, my partner is not a serious person, thank you, goodbye."

Wang Dengming left the cabin and walked towards the police car.

The inspector hurriedly followed behind: "Why don't you continue the investigation, this woman is too suspicious, didn't you see the stone sculpture in her house?"

"I see. She showed it to us on purpose. What is the relationship between Copperfield and her?"

Sith's call came in.

"Wang, Copperfield's car fell into the river for no reason."

"What about people?"

"you guess."

Wang Dengming hung up the phone and got into the car. The ranger stood at the door and waved gracefully at him.

"She killed Copperfield, yes, she was the last murderer."

Inspector: "The camera didn't capture her face, but her back looks very similar. Unfortunately, if she is plumper, she won't be a forest ranger. Arrest her?"

"Arrest you ghost, you can't find anything if you arrest her! The case can be closed. You don't particularly want me to close the case early."

"Why do you want to close the case all of a sudden?"

"Because I want to live a few more days."

"You really don't intend to arrest her?"

"You can do this, give you handcuffs."

The detective pushed the handcuffs away.

"I'm not a fool, how do I write the closing report?"

"How the report is written is none of our business!"

"If you can't catch the murderer, Xin Mohai will fire you."

"He can do whatever he likes."

"Are you sure that the final murderer is her? What is the basis?"

"Sometimes there is no basis for investigating a case. Think about the Valley of the Dead, think about the church in Gumeng Town, Alaska, we'd better not mess with her."

The forest ranger was still waving, his smile was so sweet that it was intoxicating, and he was reluctant to leave.

"I see, she's not guarding the woods, she's guarding other unknown things, isn't that right?"

"God knows, if you don't want to be treated as sacredly as Copperfield."

"Divine treatment, what do you mean?"

"I don't know what I'm talking about. Say goodbye to her enthusiastically. Be enthusiastic and sincere. There are only advantages and no disadvantages."

The detective waved goodbye desperately.

The police car had already left, and Wang Dengming saw in the rearview mirror that the ranger was still waving in front of the wooden house on the hillside.
