i must be in hell

Ning Xiao had already become suspicious when he met the cleaner cleaning the sheets at the stairs.

It is like this every time, when he encounters a problem and hesitates to move forward, it seems that it is destined that a person or some evidence will appear to solve his problem and clear the way forward.Ever since Zhang Weiwei's incident, Ning Xiao has been suspicious of this kind of coincidence.

So when he met the cleaner, he already had a guess in his heart, knowing that this might be a hidden whistle deliberately buried by He Ye, but he didn't insist on it in order to follow the clues.Ning Xiao let the cleaner leave, just to see if he could get some clues about Heye from him.Unexpectedly, the next day, he never saw the cleaner again.

Sure enough, this was the spy planted by He Ye. After finding out that Ning Xiao was suspicious, they withdrew this pawn without hesitation.

Letting a prey escape made Ning Xiao feel a little annoyed, but he didn't give up.While solving the case, he quietly observed the performance of the people around him.Language, action, and demeanor are used to judge who is playing a dark chess game.

When questioning Lian Yi and the others, Ning Xiao paid attention to Li Youming.The son of a businessman led the suspicion to Xi Xiang with a seemingly concealed but exposed method.What he did was completely inconsistent with the principle of businessmen seeking profit, and it seemed that he had some kind of communication with Chen Qiong secretly.Because of this, Ning Xiao gave Xu Shangyu an extra word before resorting to the last trick to startle the snake.

【If possible, keep an eye on Li Youming for me. 】

Ning Xiao just hoped to catch Heye's minions as soon as possible, and also believed that Xu Shangyu would understand what he meant and cooperate with him.But he never thought that Xu Shangyu's life would be in danger because of his request!

When rushing upstairs from the wine cellar, Ning Xiao's heart was also beating wildly.The scene of Xu Shangyu lying in a pool of blood kept flashing in front of his eyes. If something happened because of this, Ning Xiao would never forgive He Ye, and himself!

He no longer wants another person to die because of his own reasons!

Leaving behind the other criminal policemen who heard the sound, Ning Xiao rushed to the monitoring room on the third floor, and saw a person lying on the ground at the first sight.

The black pupils suddenly tightened, and Ning Xiao rushed in.

"Xu Shangyu!"

"Hey, it hurts, it hurts!" The person lifted up by him groaned while clutching his bleeding arm, "Hey, can you be a little weaker, my hand is almost broken."

Not Xu Shangyu!

Ning Xiao belatedly looked at the person he was supporting, who had the same capable short hair and a strong body, but it was definitely not a listless criminal policeman.The person in front of him is Lian Yi who went to the bathroom with Ren Dazhi but didn't see him halfway!

The absence of Xu Shangyu and Li Youming meant that they must have chased outside.Ning Xiao watched the rainstorm gradually stop outside the window, feeling a little anxious, and gradually let go of Lian Yi's hand.

"Ah! It hurts!" Lian Yi was put on the ground by Ning Xiao. "Hey, hey, seeing that he's not the boss, why treat him so differently? Anyway, I did it to protect him from getting hurt!"

The criminal police behind him followed, and hurriedly called someone over to help Lian Yi treat the wound.

"Don't look at it."

Seeing that Ning Xiao was staring out of the window, Lian Yi said: "That kid Li Youming saw that the incident was exposed, and wanted to shoot the boss. Fortunately, I hid outside the window and grabbed the boss in time. Except for my hand being scratched by the bullet, the boss He was not injured, he chased Li Youming out."

Ning Xiao stood outside the window and saw that there were still climbing marks on the wall outside the window.The windows on the third floor have water pipes and a rain screen on the wall, and it is easy to flip down to the next floor.He withdrew his gaze and looked at Lian Yi.

"Li Youming must have a helper, did Xu Shangyu go out alone like this?"

Lian Yi looked at him and grinned. "Ning Xiao, right? Don't underestimate the boss. Even if the other party has a gun, at this time, I'm still more worried about Li Youming's safety."

Hearing what he said, Ning Xiao finally calmed down a bit.However, at this moment, several gunshots rang out one after another from the east of the guild hall, making his nerves tense again.

And the most recent one sounded even outside the gate of the guild hall.Ning Xiao's complexion changed, he turned to the criminal police and said, "Where is Chen Qiong!"

Everyone's face changed drastically, and they ran downstairs one after another!

When the criminal police went to check outside the hall, they only saw a corpse lying on the ground.

Chen Qiong's temple was pierced by a blow, and he was already silent.A criminal policeman stepped forward to check the wound, and said, "This caliber, and the scorch marks on the edge, are sniper rifles, and the sniper is within 300 meters!"

With a bang, another bullet landed at the criminal policeman's feet!

This made everyone nervous, and the criminal police took Ning Xiao back to the clubhouse and closed all the curtains in the room.Before the sniper was determined to have withdrawn, everyone exposed to sight was in danger.

Ning Xiao stared closely at Chen Qiong's body, until the door of the guild hall closed in front of his eyes, and he didn't turn his eyes away.

It was like this again, whenever he found the murderer, these people would always die in the hands of He Ye in the end.It was Zhang Ming before, and now it is Chen Qiong!He Ye laid out the puzzle and asked Ning Xiao to come over to solve it, but when Ning Xiao solved the puzzle, he snatched the important chess pieces away in front of him.It's almost like saying: This is my game, and I'm willing to let you solve the puzzle, so you can do it.Don't try to interfere with what I don't want you to do.

From the beginning to the end, they were all under Heye's mercy!

Ning Xiao looked at the gate, his gaze could almost set the wooden door on fire.He could almost imagine how Heye, who was hiding behind layers of curtains, laid out the layout calmly, using the lives in his hands as pawns to play a game of chasing after me with Ning Xiao.The lives of Yang Yun and many more people were regarded as a trifling matter by him.

This guy is a completely inhuman lunatic.

Tick.

It seemed that rainwater was dripping lightly on the ground outside the door, splashing a small splash.

Ning Xiao suddenly held his breath and listened carefully to the movement outside the door.After quieting down, the sound of rain falling outside the house, the clock swinging inside the house, and the breathing of everyone around you can be clearly heard in my ears.

But now Ning Xiao heard another person's breathing just outside this door.

The sound was gentle and orderly, like the sound of a male lion blowing his beard from his chest when he was patrolling his territory.Hearing the steady and powerful breathing, Ning Xiao didn't know why, but the first person he thought of was He Ye.

He Ye, who met him outside the police force, also came up to greet him with a smile with such a steady breathing rhythm.When bidding farewell to him at Ning Xiao's house, that person was similarly unhurried.

Not in a hurry, calm and measured, this breathing frequency is the deepest impression He Ye left on Ning Xiao, as if no matter what happens, it will not disturb his rhythm.

Heye, there is only a wall between him and him now, is it just outside this door?

All the chaotic sounds faded away, Ning Xiao could only hear the breathing of himself and the people outside the door, one light and one heavy, echoing each other across a door.Ning Xiao's right hand trembled slightly, and he clenched his fingers tightly, reminding himself of the pain brought by his fingertips.Don't push the door out at this moment, don't rush out at this moment, even if He Ye is really outside the door, now is not the best time to catch him.

The lurking sniper might be waiting and pointing his gun at one of them.

So he can't go out, and he can't let that lunatic take the life of anyone here!

I don't know how long it took, and when Ning Xiao came back to his senses again, there was a rush of running sounds outside the door, followed by a familiar voice.

"They're gone, it's okay!"

Xu Shangyu's voice came in through the door, and Ning Xiao's whole body's vigilance was suddenly relaxed, and he felt a sense of powerlessness.It's not just him, Xu Shangyu's safe return has settled everyone's anxiety.The gate was opened, and next, the police force ruled out the nearby sniper spots, and Xu Shangyu and the criminal policemen kept guarding the surrounding area.However, another shot was not fired until the rain stopped.

Li Youming and Heye's people just disappeared into the rainy night, as if they had never appeared before.

Ning Xiao has been sitting in silence, while Xu Shangyu and his team members are busy dealing with various follow-up matters, until the sun rises in the morning, and this person who has been running around in the rain for most of the night has time to breathe a sigh of relief.He sat down beside Ning Xiao, and his wet clothes soon wet the large sofa.

Ning Xiao glanced at him, confirming that this guy was indeed unharmed.There were so many gunshots last night, I really don't know how he did it, maybe as Lian Yi said, he is really skilled.

"You're soaking wet, don't you want to change a piece of clothing?"

When Xu Shangyu heard the words, he glanced at him, and said with a smile: "We are each other, and you are not only soaked, but also smells like wine, isn't it a beautiful wine?"

However, Ning Xiao ignored his teasing, put his hands on his chin, remained silent for a long time, and said:

"In the novel, Timor's failure when he first appeared was that although he found the murderer in the end, he let him run away." Ning Xiao said, "They took Chen Qiong's body away, didn't they?"

Xu Shangyu stopped teasing and looked at him seriously. "What do you want to say?"

"This is He Ye's demonstration. He is telling me that everything is under his control. Even if I find the murderer, he will let me taste the taste of failure at the end like in the novel!" Ning Xiao shook his hand. Clenched fist. "Even though I'm the writer, he's the director."

Xu Shangyu smiled disapprovingly after listening. "I don't think so. Ning Xiao, why do you think Heye used snipers?"

what?

"Why did he dare to take Chen Qiong away after using the sniper, instead of coming directly to snatch people like last time?"

Xu Shangyu looked at Ning Xiao.

"It is estimated that Li Youming was found out this time, and they did not expect it. They wanted to snatch the murderer to demonstrate, yes, but they used snipers to force you back before they dared to come and arrest him. Ning Xiao, in my opinion, Heye originally didn't want to use force. The contest between you and him is a contest of brains between the two of you. Using force is tantamount to cheating and showing weakness to others."

Xu Shangyu said: "However, why does Heye break the rules like this knowingly, don't you understand?" He looked at Ning Xiao with burning eyes. "Because he is afraid of you, he is afraid that a direct face-to-face contest will leave more clues in front of you."

Ning Xiao looked back at him and smiled suddenly.

"Do you always comfort yourself like this when you fail? Officer Xu."

Xu Shangyu raised his eyebrows. "You are the first to enjoy this kind of treatment. So tell me, are you still depressed? Red wine beauty."

When Ning Xiao heard this address, he frowned deliberately. "Although I am not depressed now, I feel very sick to my stomach."

Hearing this, Xu Shangyu laughed, while Ning Xiao looked at him and also showed a smile.

There was another sentence that Ning Xiao didn't tell him.Timor's first defeat was also the only one.Since then, no one or any murderer has escaped his grasp.

Heye.

Ning Xiao looked at the lines on his palm and swore secretly.I absolutely, will not let you continue to be complacent.

In the dark night, the sound of breathing through the door seemed to linger in my ears all the time.

For a long time.
