Abyss of ignorance

Chapter 24 The Waltz in the Dark

Chen Yu, who has been diligent for decades, showed up at the Public Security Bureau as usual on Saturday. He arrived at the work unit an hour earlier as usual. Before he could sit down in the office, Lin Xiaodong came in. on Chen Yu's desk.

"Heh, did you write it all night?" Chen Yu said with a smile, as if he wasn't angry at Lin Xiaodong's rudeness when he slammed the door yesterday.

On the contrary, it was Lin Xiaodong, who was still full of anger: "You can deal with Director Xu." After he finished speaking, he walked away.

Riding a motorcycle, he walked through the streets and alleys of Linzhou in the early morning. The beautiful scenery in early spring did not make him feel any better.

He knew that he wasn't angry with Chen Yu, and even without Chen Yu's urging, this case-closing report would not have been able to convict Jiang Xuyi or Ye Mimi.

On Saturday, he knew where Ye Mimi was at the moment.

The motorcycle galloped away from the urban area full of tall buildings and headed towards the lush forest.

From a distance, he saw Ye Mimi standing on the lawn of the nursing home garden. The mountain wind blew her long black hair and the same black skirt, like an elf in the mountains, who predicted his arrival and waited for a long time.

With a sudden brake, Lin Xiaodong got off the motorcycle and went straight to Ye Mimi.

"We have to talk." He said as soon as he walked up to Ye Mimi.

"It's almost time for you to close the case." Ye Mimi said first.

"Huh? How do you know that?"

"The last time you were in the casserole restaurant, you had already thought about it. The truth is nothing more than that. These few days are enough for you."

"You know, the truth is far more than that." Lin Xiaodong stared at Ye Mimi, "You know that Gao Hanyu is following you, deliberately taking him to the Dongyou Oil Market, so that he can see the drug dealers hiding a small amount of drugs there.

Jiang Xu doesn't want to kill you at all, you are cooperating.The person who called the drug dealer to trade in the East Oil Market was Jiang Xu. Only he knew the landline Gao Hanyu was using. Only he knew that Gao Hanyu was definitely not there when he called in Huangshidun, because Gao Hanyu was following him The target given - you.

The dealer said the caller made him repeat the words of transaction 19 aloud, why?There is only one reason, and that is to ensure that Gao Hanyu knows the news.

You know, soon he will lose the source of drugs, and he will definitely think about this accident that he encountered "accidentally" in the process of tracking the target.

But when he returned to the East Petroleum Market on January 1, it had been set up as a hunting ground for slaughtering lambs. It was cold and wet, filled with flammable gas, and there were few people and nowhere to ask for help. When it was discovered, it was already a mutilated body. "

Ye Mimi listened carefully to what he said, her eyes were always focused without the slightest dodge, and she put on that sincere expression that people couldn't refuse: "I don't know Jiang Xu. I believe what you said can't be included in your closed case." Report."

"Yes, Gao Hanyu's death was directly caused by an 'accident' in which flammable gas in the oil market was ignited by him. But what I want to tell you is that everything that has been done will leave traces, and I will definitely find evidence."

"I have a question for you. Since you still think there are so many doubts, why did you write the final report?"

"It's none of your business!" Lin Xiaodong responded angrily as this touched a nerve.

Ye Mimi took half a step forward, and whispered in Lin Xiaodong's ear, "I mean, the person who is in a hurry to get you to close the case is the one who most wants to stop you from continuing the investigation."

At night, the entrance of Wan'an Community is full of feasting lights. This community is located near the night market. There are all kinds of renters, and it is notorious for its poor security.

Ye Mimi passed by a group of flamboyantly dressed young people with a blank face, looking out of place.

Enter the elevator, press the floor, get out of the elevator, turn left, follow the corridor to the end, and stop in front of a room. There is a postal bag at the door, and I don’t know who put it there.She took out the key and opened the door, picked up the package and walked into the house she was renting.

In the next room, those noisy hooligans were taken away and finally quieted down.

The room is extremely simple, except for the basic furniture, there are no extra decorations.

She silently opened the package. Inside was an antique record player and a record, which was Chopin's "Waltz in A Minor".

She smiled and put the record on the player.

The lights in the room were not turned on, melodious classical music played, and she danced in the darkness with her hands hanging in the air.

A few kilometers away on the edge of the Chuanyun River, Jiang Xu was listening to the same music in the cold river wind, stepping on a gentleman's dance steps gracefully.

He closed his eyes, as if returning to the afternoon of that year.

"At the welcome dance, no one wants to be the dance partner of a man like me." Chen Xu looked somewhat depressed in front of Jiang Yichuan.

Jiang Yichuan patted her head: "With me here, all the girls in the school have no dance partners, and you will have a dance partner."

Then he made a gentlemanly gesture: "Miss, would you like to be my dance partner?"

Chen Xu was a child who was very easy to be happy. He was so happy that he almost jumped forward and grabbed Jiang Yichuan's hand.

The sycamore leaves were beautifully outlined by the golden warm sun, and he could smell the familiar scent of shampoo when he lowered his head.

Chen Ma only bought this kind of orchid-scented shampoo, he used it, and Xiaoxu also used it.

"You stepped on my foot." Jiang Yichuan said to Xiaoxu fondly.

Xiao Xu didn't even say sorry, but raised her head and smiled, "My mother must scold me for washing dirty shoes."

Yichuan looked at Xiaoxu tenderly: "Don't worry, Mama Chen won't tell you."

"Brother Yichuan, you never dirty your clothes and shoes. My mother must know that someone else stepped on them. I don't want you to lie."

"I'm not lying, but I can wash shoes by myself, idiot... Come on, you're such a good athlete, ballroom dancing moves are not difficult, you'll learn them quickly." As he spoke, he wrapped one hand around Xiaoxu's waist and clenched the other tightly. her hands.

"One, two, three, two, two, three..." Jiang Yichuan's voice overlapped with Jiang Xu's at the moment, and under the lights of thousands of families in Linzhou on the opposite bank, a lonely figure danced alone, intoxicated by it.

At the Linzhou Public Security Bureau in the middle of the night, Chen Yu also sat alone in the office, looking solemnly at the closing report written by Lin Xiaodong, over and over again.

"Mrs. Chen..." He murmured, then turned on the computer, retrieved Ye Mimi's surveillance video, and flipped through them one by one, "It's not like..." He continued talking to himself.

He opened the drawer under the desk and took out a small square box with a lock and password.

Chen Yu skillfully entered the password, and after opening it, a skull appeared inside, with a bunch of long hair on it.

Chen Yu touched his chin and looked at it, as if looking at her, thoughtfully...
