i must be in hell

Ning Xiao finally got a taste of Xu Shangyu's speed of handling things.

Not long after he made the promise, Ning Xiao received a special invitation letter the next day, accompanied by a large pile of case files.Xu Shangyu sorted out the case files, picked out the difficult cases in the last month, listed a list and handed it to Ning Xiao.

"You can only read these materials here." He handed a thick stack of case files to Ning Xiao, and said, "You can come to my office every day to review the files, but you must never take them out of the police station."

Ning Xiao only flipped through these thick documents, put them aside, and directly picked up the catalog compiled by Xu Shangyu to look at them.

Although Liming City is just a small city, there are not many accidental death cases.Ning Xiao just casually doubled the cases of disappearance, drowning, love murder, and family extermination.There have been fifteen murders in this month, not including some that have not been discovered.It seems that under the calm surface of the small town, it is not always calm.

"Before that, I want to visit Zhang Ming first." Putting down the file, Ning Xiao stood up. "His body should still be in your hands."

Xu Shangyu nodded and said, "Come with me."

The two went out immediately, and on the way to the appraisal department, they met another slut.When Ning Xiao saw that the other party was walking directly towards Xu Shangyu, he knew that there was nothing wrong with him, so he quietly took half a step back.

"Isn't this Captain Xu? He's already recovering? Why don't you rest at home for a few more days and calm down."

The person who spoke was a policeman in his thirties. Ning Xiao didn't understand the ranks within the police force system, but seeing the group of people following this man, he knew that his status was definitely not lower than Xu Shangyu's.

"Thank you for your concern." Xu Shangyu showed a smile, and shook hands with him casually, as if he didn't hear the sarcasm in those words. "I'm much better. After all, I'm still young and my body is strong. Don't worry about it."

The middle-aged man's expression froze, and his smile was a little unnatural. "It's good for young people to be aggressive." He patted Xu Shangyu on the shoulder, "But sometimes don't be so reckless, be careful...your body."

When he said this, his eyes swept over Ning Xiao.Ning Xiao frowned, feeling uncomfortable being targeted.Before he could react, the other party had already left in a hurry with a group of people, looking very dignified.

"This is your boss?" Ning Xiao asked, the other party's defiant attitude was simply a typical official.

Xu Shangyu turned around. "His position is indeed higher than mine, but he is not my direct supervisor."

"A person with such a status still needs to go to the front line to handle cases?" Ning Xiao was puzzled.

"If you want to continue climbing, you need some actual achievements." Xu Shangyu said, blinking at him happily. "So in order to take care of his elderly, we will hand over some 'important' cases to him."

"important?"

"Well, it's as important as the coriander in ramen."

I understand, smelling the fragrance, in fact, it doesn't fill my stomach at all.Ning Xiao thoughtfully looked at the direction that the official left. Sure enough, there are such people in all walks of life.In contrast, he suddenly felt that the person beside him was simply a representative of dedication.

"Here we are." Walking to the door of the cold storage, Xu Shangyu opened the door first. "You came just in time, and he happened to be there."

"Him?" Ning Xiao was puzzled.

"Coincidentally, we meet again, Detective Ning."

Before entering the house, I heard a familiar voice coming from inside.Ning Xiao stepped into the door and looked up.

That guy in a white coat, covered in blood.Who else could it be besides Ji Yuqiu?

When they entered the room, Ji Yuqiu seemed to have just finished an autopsy.The utensils in his hands were covered with red, red and white colors. Forensic doctor Ji stuffed these things into the cleaning tank two or three times, and changed a pair of medical gloves.After finishing these, he walked to the cold storage.

"I knew you would come to see him. Come out, someone is coming to visit you, old man." He whispered softly into the cold storage, and his appearance was chilling.

Ning Xiao saw the forensic doctor opened a cold storage.Lying there was none other than Zhang Ming, who had talked face to face with him not long ago.

Zhang Ming was covered in bruises, not just because the corpse had been exposed to the wild for a long time or because of other reasons, he looked as if he was about to rot.There were even traces of being bitten by wild dogs on the face, and the pupils stared out, almost jumping out of their sockets.

Ning Xiao only glanced at it, and closed his eyes a little unbearably.When he opened his eyes again, he restrained all his emotions and looked at the corpse carefully.

"One shot kills, very precise." Ji Yuqiu pointed at the wound on the corpse and said, "It seems that when the other party rescued him, he never thought of keeping him alive."

save?Ning Xiao sneered, did those people really want to save people?

"It's not about saving people, it's about killing people."

Ning Xiao was taken aback for a moment, almost thinking that this sentence was said by himself.He looked sideways and saw Xu Shangyu standing on his left, looking at Zhang Ming's body with an indistinguishable expression.

"Zhang Ming is not willing to be taken away. If he goes to prison, he can at least expect a suspended death sentence, and he can be reunited with his children decades later. But if he dies from then on, not only the children will have to bear a heavy burden , He will never even think about seeing his son again in this lifetime." Xu Shangyu said: "Zhang Ming is a murderer, but first of all he is a father, he will not make such a choice."

For some reason, Ning Xiao could sense that Xu Shangyu had a lot of emotion in this sentence, but observing his expression, he was colder than before, and he couldn't see anything.

Xu Shangyu said: "Old Ji, have you checked? Is there anything left?"

"Unfortunately, the other party did it very cleanly and left me no clue."

Xu Shangyu didn't say much when he heard the words. He took a step forward and gently stroked Zhang Ming's swollen eyelids.He closed Zhang Ming's eyes and left the room without saying anything.

"Why do I feel that he is very unhappy?" Ning Xiao asked suddenly.

Ji Yuqiu didn't answer him, but said, "Do you know why Xu Shangyu became a criminal policeman?"

Ning Xiao expressed a silent inquiry with his eyes.

"Because he's a madman."

Ji Yuqiu said: "His sense of justice is ridiculously high, it is simply obsessive-compulsive disorder. Whether it is a prisoner, ordinary people or other people, he has a natural sense of mission and responsibility for everything that appears in his line of sight. He believes that, You should protect these people yourself."

"He must think that even if Zhang Ming is to die, he must die under the judgment of the court, rather than inexplicably at the hands of a group of criminals." Ji Yuqiu sighed. "He's mad at himself, he's so hard on himself. I figured, sooner or later he'll be driven crazy by himself."

Ning Xiao listened silently, then also stepped forward, looking at Zhang Ming who was quietly closing his eyes.Now his expression didn't look so ferocious, as if he was asleep.This is also a poor man, he was used as a tool by He Ye, and the end was just like this.

"I'm here to say goodbye to you, Zhang Ming. By the way, let me tell you what I didn't have time to correct last time."

Ning Xiao put his hand on his heart and said softly: "I'm not Officer Ning, I'm just an ordinary person."

Zhang Ming's body will be cremated in a few days, and his relatives are unwilling to accept his ashes. It is estimated that they will have to choose a cemetery for a hasty burial.

Ning Xiao inquired about Zhang Weiwei's news, and got the answer that he has changed a guardian now and has temporarily moved to a new residence, and the new guardian should be able to take better care of the child.

When he walked out of the cold storage, Ning Xiao saw Xu Shangyu leaning against the courtyard wall with a cigarette in his mouth.He looked out at the street, wondering what he was thinking.

"you……"

Ning Xiao was about to go over and say something.Xu Shangyu's mobile phone suddenly remembered, he picked it up, and only said a few words, the whole person's breath changed suddenly, from a sheathed sword to an exposed edge.

"what happened?"

Ning Xiao asked.

"The case." Xu Shangyu snuffed out the cigarette and smiled mockingly. "Our old man is in trouble. Carrot has turned into a big tiger shark and he can't swallow it."

In a high-end pub in the city, two accidental deaths occurred in a row within a week. The dead were two hostesses.

Strangely, before the second murder, the body of the first deceased suddenly disappeared.Not long after that, there was a second murder case, and the time of death was exactly the same time a week later-that is, the first seven days of the first deceased.

According to eyewitnesses, the scene was covered with blood.

The red viscous liquid soaked through the thick velvet blanket, and the indelible dark bloodstains seemed to be written by the evil spirits from the underworld—the book of death.
