Borrowing Shoufang

The seemingly insignificant number is full of towering trees. People like Zhou who have been living in the reinforced concrete world all year round will inevitably have a sense of novelty returning to nature. It is no wonder that so many people come here every year.

After walking in the woods for half an hour, the little police officer pointed to a place not far away and said, "That's it."

Everyone looked in the direction he pointed, and saw that the forest that could not be seen just now came to the edge, and the sight ahead suddenly opened up, but there was a small hill standing in front of it, and the lush vegetation on the hill made people feel uncomfortable. Mistakenly thought it was still in the woods.

The little police officer walked over with a few people, and when they got close, they noticed that there was an inconspicuous cave in the corner under the hill, and there was a layer of vines hanging beside it like a door curtain outside the cave.The vines grow very strong and dense, thinking that if they hang down, it will be difficult for people to find that there is a cave here.

There were two police officers guarding the entrance of the cave, one on the left and one on the right. After several people walked in, they saw that the inside was pitch black and they couldn't see their fingers.

The little police officer took out the flashlights he had prepared in advance to lead the way, and several people followed behind and each took out their mobile phones to light up. Xiaoye complained as she walked, "Why is it so dark here? It's a shame someone found a dead body like this."

The little police officer who walked in front said: "It will be fine after this festival. The ones who found it were tourists who came here. They came in to explore when they saw a hidden cave here, and then found the corpse."

Xiaoye said anxiously, "Huh? The one who died was also a tourist. Curiosity really killed the cat."

"Whoever said that the dead were tourists, they were just foreigners, no one said they were tourists." The little police officer complained.

Xiaoye made a mistake about the case, and stuck out her tongue secretly, not daring to look into the eyes of Ma Qiang next to her.

The few people walked for a few more minutes, turned a corner, and there was a bright light ahead, and the cave gradually opened up.Walking into the bright light, I saw bright lights in an open space the size of a basketball court. The top of the open space was quite high, and the lights were installed on the four walls.There are several instruments in the open space, all of which have been smashed. There is a simple operating table next to the instruments, and there is a large iron cage not far away, and the corpses are in the iron cage.

There were four corpses in total, just like what Chu and Ma Qiang said, their muscles were atrophied, and their bodies were shriveled like mummies.Looking closely at the distorted faces of several people, the body is also bent inward, and the hands are tightly hugging the chest. It is obvious that the death was very painful.

Several police officers collected information on the scene around the corpse in the iron cage, and Ma Qiang went over to inquire.When one person saw Chu Zhengtian next to him, he let out a strange cry before he could speak, which attracted the attention of the others.

Chu smiled indifferently, while Ma Qiang glared at the man, who hurriedly put away his expression, coughed and said, "The four dead, people in Ju Village said they were tourists who drove here five days ago, but They left three days ago. The time of death was probably yesterday. The exact time will not be known until an autopsy. The person who discovered the body has been found and is taking a statement. The presumed cause of death is the same as the previous few times. The rapid muscle atrophy caused the body-saving skills It cannot be maintained. The several instruments placed here are probably used for cell culture and separation, which are relatively simple. No information about the suspect was found at the scene, and the surrounding villagers also said that they did not see other outsiders except these people, and they also No one knows when the cave became like this."

"Thank you." Ma Qiang said with a frown, and the policeman returned to the scene to continue searching for clues.

Ma Qiang turned to look at Chu Zhengtian, "How is it?"

Chu Zhengtian casually glanced at the cave, then at the corpse, shrugged and said, "It should be the same prisoner as in the previous case."

"Nonsense, anyone with a discerning eye knows this kind of thing! I want to know something that I don't know!" Ma Qiangchao said angrily.

"Uncle Ma, how can I know something that you don't know, your official position is higher than mine." Chu Zhengtian looked innocent.

"You stinky boy!"

"Officer Ma, did such a case happen before?" Zhou Ziyang asked from the side.

"Well, about ten days ago, a body was found in the western suburbs of the city, and it was the same." Ma Qiang said.

Is that why he looked so tired that day?Zhou Ziyang thought to himself.

As soon as Chu Zhengtian entered here, he didn't take the initiative to say a word. Ma Qiang looked at him: "What did you find?"

Chu Zhengtian still had an innocent smile on his face, shrugged and said, "They surveyed very carefully, so I don't need to say anything."

Ma Qiang was very helpless seeing that he didn't say anything.He knows this proud student very well. He is smart, courageous, and responsible, but he is talkative, and he is still stubborn about what he believes, otherwise he would not have said nothing for so many years. Chasing the case alone.He also knew that it was a pity to lose a few colleagues that time, and it was a big blow to him, but he was still his teacher after all, so couldn't he trust himself!

Ma Qiang let out a long sigh.

Chu Zhengtian knew why Ma Qiang sighed, but he also had his own thoughts. He knew what a clever and cruel criminal Zhang Yan was. He could not joke about the lives of any of his companions. He could no longer bear the pain of losing them. Take on the case alone.Anyway, he doesn't care...

Zhou Ziyang didn't know what those two people were thinking, so he walked a little closer to look at the corpse in the cage.The corpse has been removed from the cage, and the inside has been divided with white lines to indicate the situation at that time.Several forensic doctors next to them were re-examining the corpses, rummaging through them while wearing gloves, and recording. Following their rummaging, Zhou Ziyang also saw several pinholes on the arms of the corpses.Although the muscles of the corpse had completely shrunk and looked shriveled, the dense pinholes were still quite conspicuous.The skin of the corpse was gray and white, and the vicinity of the pinhole had turned black and blue due to excessive puncture. Along the arm, Zhou Ziyang found that the nails of the corpse were very long, and then he found that not only the nails, but also the toenails were longer than ordinary people, and the hair was also longer.Every corpse looks the same, Zhou Ziyang finds it very strange.

Righteousness ([-])

"Why, did Zi Yang find anything unusual?" Seeing him frowning in deep thought, Chu Zhengtian couldn't help asking.

Zhou Ziyang shook his head slowly, carefully looked around, and asked him in a low voice: "Officer Chu, what caused their muscle atrophy? With so many cases happening, there should be clues."

Chu Zhengtian smiled appreciatively and said: "Forensic doctors have detected a certain substance on the corpse, but they don't know what it is, but they speculate that it is the substance that caused the rapid muscle atrophy. I have also searched everywhere in the past few years. I asked many experts and researchers, but no one can explain what it is and what function it has.”

"yes……"

When the on-site survey was roughly completed, several people no longer stayed at the scene.On the way back, Xiaoye was still driving. Zhou Ziyang and Chu Zhengtian took back their cars on the way. During this period, Xiaoye asked curiously why they met each other by car, but was perfunctorily dismissed by Chu Zhengtian with a date, although Zhou Ziyang wanted to Rebuttal, but thinking of the previous misunderstanding, I think it's better not to refute, so as not to affect Chu Zhengtian's plan, but he insisted on removing the word "date".

It was already past six o'clock when Zhou Ziyang returned to his home, the days in winter were short and it was already dark.Because of the investigation, the policemen simply ate some food made by the villagers. Naturally, Zhou Ziyang, a non-staff member, could only eat casually. At this moment, his stomach began to complain.He warmed up the food in the refrigerator and ate it. He looked at the time, it was past seven, and it was not too late. Zhou Ziyang wondered if he should go to borrow the longevity square. He hadn’t been there for so many days. He really missed them. Very good, but after a day of running around, he is really tired, and he has to go to work tomorrow.

After thinking about all kinds of things, I finally decided to go after get off work tomorrow.After making up his mind, Zhou Ziyang got into the bed and fell into a deep sleep after hastily washing up.

After a busy day at the hospital, Zhou Ziyang, who was about to leave work, was stopped by his colleagues.It turned out that the colleague had something to do at home temporarily, so I wanted him to help with the evening shift.Zhou Ziyang wanted to refuse at first, but he really wanted to borrow the birthday house, but he couldn't stand the colleague's begging, so he finally agreed.In this way, the plan to go to Borrowing Shoufang can only be postponed, and the pity of the pile of snacks at home can only be stockpiled before eating into the unripe belly.

Thinking about it, Zhou Ziyang couldn't help laughing.

After finishing his dinner casually, Zhou Ziyang came to the doctor's duty room in the inpatient building.Although Zhou Ziyang is in the outpatient clinic, he is often caught here to help, so he is quite familiar with this place. With his handsome appearance and gentle personality, the people in the inpatient department can't wait for him to come every day of.No, when the nurse girls saw him coming in in a white coat, they immediately came over to greet him.

Zhou Ziyang smiled gently among the flowers. In fact, he felt very embarrassed. These girls were too enthusiastic, but he had no extra thoughts, and he couldn't say anything directly. He could only chat with them.

Women love to gossip, not to mention being in a place like a hospital where there is a lot of gossip, the nurses chatted about the latest hospital affairs within a few words.From the disappearance of the nurse some time ago to all kinds of gossip about the patients recently, they have been talking about the ambiguous relationship between the deputy hospital and Zhou Qiao, but this topic just started, and several people suddenly fell silent.

Zhou Ziyang was puzzled, but as they looked over, they saw Zhou Qiao standing expressionlessly at the door of the duty room.He hurriedly smiled awkwardly, but Zhou Qiao didn't look at him, and just said coldly to the nurses: "It's very busy."
