Mystery Case Tracing [Criminal Investigation]

When we arrived near Keketuohai, it was already past eight o'clock in the evening Beijing time, but the sky was just beginning to dim and it remained dusk.

Two people who had come from the standard Beijing time zone were already hungry at the moment. They drove straight to the hotel on the road, put their things in each room, and hurried out to find food.

The town is not big, and there are common halal ramen shops just a few steps from the hotel. The two randomly went in and ordered two noodles and a few skewers of grilled lamb, all of which were quick and filling, and the store quickly prepared them and served them to the table. The two people hadn’t spoken since they entered the store except for ordering food. When the noodles came up, they ate their heads, and a plate of noodles went down for the most part. The two of them sighed as if they had made an appointment. When they looked up, they saw each other’s faces and laughed in unison .

"I feel that we two are reincarnated like starving ghosts." Yan Mu smiled with bold eyebrows and big eyes.

Qi Chuchen wiped his mouth with a napkin. "Who said no? I don’t think it is when I drive a car on the road. When I stop, I feel hungry. I almost eat the steering wheel. Fortunately, there are fruits on the road. Otherwise, I guess our car is already I gnawed half away."

Finally not so hungry, the two began to eat noodles and mutton skewers slowly. I started to talk about tomorrow's plans and arrangements, most of the time Yan Mu was talking, and Qi Chuchen answered "Yes, good" or something.

After dinner, the sunset finally burned out, and the night began to fall gradually, and the two decided to go around for a walk. On the road, Yan Mu probably mentioned the general route plan for the next few days. Qi Chuchen still listened carefully and replied yes, yes, no questions at all, no objection, I will follow you wherever you drive. Which means. Yan Mu smiled after Qi Chuchen said "OK" again.

"You don't ask anything, just go with me, you are not afraid that I will sell you? Although this is the Western Regions, there is still a market for you, a well-behaved Han man."

Qi Chuchen became happy when he heard the praise.

"As a senior criminal policeman, I think whether we are fighting in close combat or criminal tactics, you should be slightly at a disadvantage, so it's really hard to tell who will sell who." Qi Chuchen said and blinked.

Yan Mu's eyes lit up when he heard it: "Then the road will depend on Officer Qi to take care of him."

"It's easy to talk."

The town is not big at first, except for small food shops, the other are small grocery shops and the like. Adding a piece of less than ten shops, there is nothing else to visit. The two went around to see that it was getting dark, and then walked to the hotel.

When he walked to the entrance of the hotel lobby, Qi Chuchen was about to push the door, the phone in his pocket rang, took out the phone and glanced at Yan Mu and waved to Yan Mu, pointed to the phone to signal Yan Mu to go back to the room first, then picked up the phone and turned to the hotel. Walk outside.

"Are you in Xinjiang?" It was Zhang Chao.

"Is this point to notify me to come back to work?" Qi Chuchen raised his hand and looked at his watch.

"Ancestor, I beg you, our workload has been really stable recently. Please close your crow's mouth. Don't think about work, please have a good time. I just see if you haven't moved for two or three days. Are you here? You are still on sick leave. I beg you not to love your job and work so much. As your immediate boss, I am very stressed." Zhang Chao heard that Qi Chuchen was thousands of miles away and was worried about returning to the team and he couldn't laugh or cry.

"Don't worry, I will never usurp the throne to seize power. Since I am not busy, why do you think of calling me at this point, do you just get off work?" A suspicion flashed through Qi Chuchen's heart.

"The two brigade below have recently received a homicide case, and the progress is not going smoothly. Today we gathered them together and held a separate meeting to diverge their ideas." While talking, Zhang Chao came from the microphone on the road. Hustle and bustle.

"Is it going to be investigated together or is it completely independent? You didn't drive today?" Qi Chuchen always felt that Zhang Chao hadn't finished speaking.

"Yes, I limit the number today. At present, there is no obvious basis for combining the two cases. I still prefer to investigate separately according to independent cases first, and then talk about the crossover later. But even if the cases are combined, you should not have to come back. In any case, we can communicate in time. As long as you are not in the primeval forest and there is no signal, there will be no delay. You have not taken a vacation for a long time. Play with peace of mind. There are more than two people who have me. For the case, I won’t call you back, so don’t worry.” Zhang Chao did not forget to continue to dispel Qi Chuchen’s doubts. “The bus is here. I will hang up first. There is a lot of people over there. Pay attention to your own safety and drive carefully.”

"Okay, feel free to contact me if you have anything." Qi Chuchen hung up the phone. Before hanging up the phone, he wanted to tell Zhang Chao to pass on the two cases to him, but thought that Zhang Chao would definitely disagree, so he didn't mention it. I simply stood there holding my mobile phone and opened several news apps, local forums, and Weibo to search one by one. I looked around and found that there were no words about the Fengqi City murder case on the Internet in the last one or two months, and there was no public reaction at all. The social impact of these two cases is not very bad, and the police have done a good job of keeping secrets. At least there will be much less unnecessary interference after investigation.

After dialing the phone for a long time, the fingers suddenly felt a slight coolness. When I looked at the watch, more than forty minutes had passed. The sky was completely dark and the temperature dropped significantly. Qi Chuchen rubbed his arms, held his mobile phone, and walked quickly to the hotel lobby.

A room on the third floor showed a faint orange light, and a tall man stood by the window. How long Qi Chuchen stood downstairs, he stood by the window and watched for a long time. He didn't close the curtains until Qi Chuchen walked into the hotel, shook his head gently, and a smile wafting through his eyes. .

At 6 o'clock in the morning the next morning, Qi Chuchen's door was knocked gently. Qi Chuchen opened the door and saw Yan Mu standing outside, "It's packed, let's go."

Qi Chuchen returned to the room and took the bag, went out and walked downstairs side by side with Yan Mu, went to the hotel lobby to complete the check-out procedures, and then got in the car and drove south.

Before the day broke, Yan Mu looked at the deep blue sky in the distance in front of the car and looked at the time: "Well, there should be a sunrise today. If the time is not in time, we will slowly pass by."

It was too early to see a car along the way. More than half an hour later, the car stopped in front of Coco Suri. The two got off the car and walked slowly towards the gate of the scenic spot.

The staff have not yet gone to work, but the door is not a real door, but a few stainless steel fences are staggered and blocked, which is more like a diversion function, and naturally there is no lock.

At this moment, the sky had been shining for most of the time, and a hint of red morning glow began to appear on the horizon.

Enter the gate and walk in gradually. The azure blue lake in front of you is getting bigger and bigger. Some of the reeds on the lakeside turn yellow and some remain emerald green. Pieces of reeds in the lake form floating islands; The grassland was scattered with early rising cows and sheep grazing their heads; on the other side of the lake, a large tract of grass was faintly visible, with white yurts standing in it; a little bit further away, the mountains overlapped, and the mountains were sprinkled with golden and verdant greens.

Yan Mu walked a little ahead, looked at the surrounding scenery, and chose a position just opposite the lower mountain and lake, Qi Chuchen followed and walked a few steps forward and stood at the water's edge.

The water from Coco Suri underneath his feet gently stroked Qi Chuchen's feet, as if to wash away the dust on his way, the lead of a lifetime.

The sky gradually turned into strands, and then into patches. When the morning glow filled the sky, the golden sun exuded a dazzling light slowly rising from the side of the mountain, rising little by little. The calm water surface is like a girl’s soft hands, taking all the light carefully, and without hesitation, it is dedicated to the sandgulls, red geese, gray cranes hidden in the reeds... awakens a group of sleeping swans, flapping their white wings, from the surface of the water. Pass by.

The sun is still climbing slowly, the reeds are drifting, sand gulls, swans, and red geese are dancing together. Pairs of wild ducks are chasing on the water. Yan Mu gently raised the camera in his hand to freeze the beauty of the traveler at this moment.

The sun finally completely separated from the mountains, rushed to the higher sky, and sprinkled the light on the wider earth. A sunrise is only a few minutes, no more than ten minutes at most, but it seems to have experienced two lives: from night to day, from quiet to noisy, how many buildings are in the mist and rain, how many flowers are full of branches, there is no end to this journey of life .

"According to legend, there was a beautiful young girl who lived in the remote temple. Day after day, year after year, a spring evening girl wearing a white robe, leaning against a gauze tent, was sleepy, and she saw a girl in the mist. A handsome young man in a black robe came hurriedly and knelt down in front of the tent." Yan Mu walked to Qi Chuchen's side.

"The young man expresses his longing for the girl straight and enthusiastically, and invites the girl to go to the mortal life with him." Yan Mu looked sideways at Qi Chuchen. Qi Chuchen did not turn his head, but looked at the red sun in the distance. ,

"He described the colorful mortal life to the girl, the flocks of cattle and sheep, the fragrance of flowers in the four seasons, and the joyous singing and dancing of the enthusiastic people. There is no boundless loneliness, and there is no utter desertion. The girl is willing to follow the young man to the world, but she is met by the sky. Father's prevention, the girl is willing to give up everything and follow the boy. The angry heavenly father punishes the girl for turning into a white swan and the boy into a black swan. When the girl leaves the palace, she becomes a swan and falls into Coco Suri. , I saw the boy who turned into a black swan in the lake. The boy said, I have admired you for a long time, and broke into the heaven. I didn't expect you to abandon the immortal and come with me. The girl said that there will be no regrets in this life with you for the rest of my life. Since then, they have lived in this lake, and it has become the hometown of swans." Yan Mu gently told a beautiful legend. The two stood side by side by the water, looking at the mountains in the distance. A yurt with smoke.

Time seemed to stand still, and they kept standing side by side like this. I don’t know how long it took until the swans in mid-air, the ducks in the lake called louder and louder, just like the soul wandering outside the sky finally fell back to the mortal body, and the two turned and walked together. The shore walked forward.

This sunrise will occupy a corner in your heart, and will leave a memory in your life, right?
