I became the police station's darling after I could understand what the furry creature was sayi

Old Black flies up.

"follow me."

Nan Shu and the other two immediately followed.

During this time, Nan Shu was busy with her thesis and neglected her exercise. She was already panting heavily after climbing only halfway up the mountain, and it could be said that she was being led by the idiot.

Looking at Liu Ming and Xu Yunli on the side, the two walked briskly and steadily. Apart from their better complexion due to improved blood circulation, they did not appear to be out of breath.

Liu Ming's line of work requires diligent training, and Nan Shu understands that.

But why even Xu Yunli...

"Don't you often spend time in the anatomy lab?" Sometimes you stay up all night, shouldn't you be suffering from qi and blood deficiency, kidney weakness, weak legs, and panting after just one step? How come you have such a good constitution?

Nan Shu was extremely envious.

Xu Yunli: "Perhaps... you have better talent?"

Nan Shu: ...

Seeing the girl's speechless expression, Xu Yunli smiled, reached out, and grabbed her wrist.

"Let's go, I'll take you."

Nan Shu was pulled along for a couple of steps and realized that it did save her a lot of effort, so she didn't pull back and let the man and dog pull her up the mountain.

We've only gone halfway.

Nan Shu suddenly heard Lao Hei scream.

"not good!"

"on fire!"

Old Black and Old Gray ignored Nan Shu and the other two, and ran towards the northern mountainside.

"What's wrong with them...?"

Before Liu Ming could even ask a question, he caught a glimpse of thick smoke rising from the depths of the lush, verdant forest in the distance.

I was suddenly shocked.

Setting fire to the mountain is a capital offense, punishable by life imprisonment. In the dead of winter, someone actually dared to set fire to the mountains. Are they courting death?
Although the South is humid and the vegetation is not as dry as in the North, it is not difficult to start such a large fire.

Liu Ming looked at Nan Shu and said, "Miss Nan, it might be dangerous to get any closer."

Their primary task was to ensure Nan Shu's safety.

As for the fire, it was not part of their mission.

However, they can help call the police and summon the fire department.

Nan Shu didn't speak, her almond-shaped eyes fixed on the direction of the thick smoke.

Upon seeing the thick smoke, Xu Yunli immediately called Nan Punian and shared his real-time location with him so that Nan Punian could contact the fire department more accurately, quickly, and efficiently.

Southern trees have a high moisture content, resulting in a large amount of smoke and dust when burned. However, judging from the current smoke concentration, the fire is not very large.

"The fire isn't too big, we can give it a try."

Xu Yunli said.

Liu Ming frowned, "But..."

"Walk."

Before she could finish speaking, Nan Shu interrupted her, saying that she couldn't bear to see the fire start, and besides, she had Mei Mei and Ya Ya with her.

If the fire cannot be extinguished, it can be detected in advance to allow for escape, and with the wind direction, the fire is unlikely to spread quickly.

Xu Yunli remained silent, then pulled Nan Shu along and ran quickly toward the source of the fire.

Liu Ming sighed and, with no other choice, could only follow.

Closer.

The ignition point also became clear.

There, on a protrusion near the rock face, burned a simple wooden hut.

Liu Ming took out his binoculars and looked inside, letting out a soft exclamation of surprise:
"A safety barrier has actually been built next to the wooden house."

What was the arsonist's purpose?
Old Black flew back quickly, clearly having realized the crisis wasn't too serious, and rushed back to report.

There are people inside the house.

It heard the man's screams.

"what?!"

Liu Ming was startled.

Nan Shu and Xu Yunli exchanged a glance.

Xu Yunli quickened his pace, and Nan Shu also pushed herself uphill with renewed vigor.

Volcanic Hell!

These few words flashed through Nan Shu's mind. If the previous words were just guesses, after hearing Lao Hei's words, Nan Shu was almost certain that the person trapped in the wooden house was Nan Jianye.

soon.

The three of them arrived near the wooden house.

Thick smoke billowed out, and Nan Shu heard Nan Jianye's heart-wrenching cries.

The fire started burning from the outside in.

The people inside the wooden house were likely bound and could only watch helplessly as the fire ignited, feeling the surrounding temperature rise, and fear spreading until the house itself began to burn.

Those trapped were burned alive in fear.

It's an extremely torturous method.

Liu Ming thought that the murderer must have had a deep-seated hatred for the people in the wooden house.

"Shushu! Shushu, save me! It's my dad! Ah!!! Save me!!!"

Nan Jianye, inside the wooden house, saw Nan Shu and cried out for help.

Liu Ming looked at Nan Shu in surprise.

This... doesn't seem right. Isn't Miss Nan the employer's sister?
It was no secret that the employer's parents had died young.

Where did this dad come from now?

Nan Shu frowned and looked at Liu Ming, "Brother Liu, can you save her?"

He paused, then added, "provided you don't get hurt."

Of course, Nan Shu would never ask someone else to risk their life for Nan Jianye.

But if we can save Nan Jianye's life, we might be able to get more clues out of him.

For example, who exactly is the murderer?

What exactly is it about Nan Jianye that the other party has that would allow him to follow their orders, shake off the police, and meet with them alone, even knowing that they might harm him?

Liu Ming observed the fire and nodded.

"can."

Nan Shu breathed a sigh of relief, "The price for saving this person will be calculated separately."

Anyway, the Nan family in Hangzhou is so rich, we can just have Nan Yanhui pay for it.

Nan Yanhui, who was in a meeting in the conference room: ?

"okay!"

Upon hearing this, Liu Ming's eyes lit up. He put down his backpack, took out a fire blanket, and draped it over himself.

To do this kind of work, you definitely need to be fully equipped.

With the extra reward, Liu Ming was even more motivated to save people.

They charged into the fire with unstoppable momentum, smashed open the door, and used a knife to cut the ropes binding Nan Jianye.

They carried and dragged Nan Jianye to safety.

At this point, Nan Jianye was on his deathbed.

Nan Shu glanced at him and saw that Nan Jianye's clothes were burned and stuck to his skin, and almost 70% of his skin was red.

His brows furrowed tightly.

In this situation, if proper treatment is not received, there is a high risk of death.

"Good Shushu, save me, I don't want to die, I don't want to die!"

After placing Nan Jianye on the fire blanket, Liu Ming dared not move him.

Nan Jianye's skin currently appears to be only red and peeling, but in reality, it's as thin as a sheet of paper.

It came off with the slightest rubbing.

Very fragile.

What if he dies and then tries to hold him accountable?
"Shut up. If you don't want to die, talk less and don't move."

Nan Shu said coldly.

Nan Jianye, who was originally about to scratch, stopped when he heard Nan Shu's words and just looked at her.

Nan Shu has no feelings for Nan Jianye.

At this moment, being looked at like that by him, I felt no ripples in my heart.

"The ambulance is on its way."

Nan Shu squatted down and stared into his eyes.

"Enough with the nonsense, I'm asking you, who exactly wants to kill you?"

Nan Shu certainly didn't want the melodramatic plot of a TV drama where someone dies and then the killer remains undisclosed for ages to be revealed, to happen to her. (End of Chapter)
