Thorns

After rubbing the medicine, ignoring Gu Mengping who was trembling with anger, Si Qingyang went directly to the faucet and rinsed off the plaster on his hands. The strong herbal smell came, which was not very pleasant. He waited until the smell on his hands dissipated completely. Only then did Si Qingyang turn off the tap.

Then, he turned around and walked into the bathroom, closed the door, and after frosting the window, he could see a little shadow swaying under the light. After a while, Gu Mengping heard the sound of running water.

Don't really treat yourself as an outsider!

The dark-faced Gu Mengping put a towel on his back and finally got warmer. He went back to the kitchen cabinet and took out two boxes of instant noodles. Then sat on the edge of the table and waited quietly.

Five minutes later, the moment Gu Mengping lifted the lid, Si Qingyang also came out, walking over with a big bath towel around his waist. Under the bright light, Gu Mengping glanced at it.

I didn't pay attention to it before, but after taking a closer look now, Gu Mengping found that there were many scars on Si Qingyang's body, such as knife wounds, gunshot wounds, and all kinds of scars, but it could be seen that the age was a bit long up.

"Dinner is about to be ordered." He gestured at the other party. He didn't expect to have takeout at all, and of course he didn't expect him to be able to start a fire. His kitchen hadn't been used since he bought a house.

"En." In response, Si Qingyang walked to the table, tore open the instant noodle box, took out the seasoning and threw it on the table, took a look at the noodles, frowned, and stuffed them into his mouth, biting After a sip, it was good except that the taste was a bit bland.

Gu Mengping watched his movements, stroked his forehead, silently took the bread from his hand and threw it into the box, put in the ingredients and filled it with boiling water, the water steamed, and his expression was calm.

Si Qingyang watched his movements without speaking, but there were two words clearly revealed in his eyes: trouble.

Gu Mengping felt that the bodyguard he had hired was worse than himself. Gu Mengping glanced at him and didn't bother to quarrel with him. He was so tired right now that he just wanted to eat and sleep quickly.

"The clean clothes are in the closet, you sleep on the sofa." Gu Mengping said to Si Qingyang after packing up everything after eating.

The room was very spacious, but no matter how big the room was, there was only one bed. Si Qingyang did not refuse. After Mu Zhiyuan finished speaking, he closed the door and didn't bother to care about it. He had to wake up tomorrow to discuss the big things.

After turning off the light, Si Qingyang lay on the soft sofa, staring at the ceiling, not quite used to the life outside, feeling a little out of touch and novel.

Turning his head to glance at the closed door, Si Qingyang forced himself to close his eyes.

The first night after he was released from prison seemed to be very short. He woke up intermittently several times in the middle, and always felt like he was dreaming. He couldn’t believe it, but when he took a closer look at where he was, he closed his eyes Eye.

When Gu Mengping woke up, it was already 08:30 the next morning. Five hours of sleep was enough for him to replenish all his energy. Food aroma.

"Brother Meng Ping, good morning!" came a smiling voice.

When Gu Mengping walked over, he happened to see that kid Zhou Yi, who was poking a small steamed bun with his chopsticks.

"Why are you here?" Gu Mengping asked as he closed his nightgown.

"The captain asked me to study with you these days, so I'm here." Zhou Yi said very sincerely. Gu Mengping wanted to refuse, but after thinking about it, he decided to give up. Time to take this kid.

Walking over, I picked up a small steamed stuffed bun from the bag, took a bite, and it tasted pretty good. Is this considered an apprentice gift?

As for Si Qingyang, from the very beginning, he sat quietly beside him and finished eating two baskets of steamed buns and a cup of soy milk.

At nine o'clock, the car repairer called Gu Mengping to say that he had towed the car away and asked him to confirm with the management of the parking lot. When he hung up the phone, Gu Mengping also criticized the other party for dragging the car all night. I just apologized again and again, but in fact, my face didn't hurt or itch.

"I remember that the deceased's car was replaced in a repair shop, right? Was it the murderer who drove to repair it?" Zhou Yi asked suddenly when he heard about Gu Mengping's car repair.

"Yes, so you finish eating quickly and we're ready to go." Gu Mengping nodded. Zhou Yi didn't bring any new news, which proved that there was no progress on Mu Zhiyuan's side, and they could only start from other places.

It was still Si Qingyang who was driving, and Gu Mengping felt that it was necessary to give him the entire driver's license, so that driving without a license would definitely be troublesome if he turned around.

"I got a piece of news yesterday, and I think it's very important." Zhou Yi, who was sitting in the back seat, thought for a while and said.

"What?" Gu Mengping asked, recovering.

"The old man sweeping the floor is the one at the scene. I asked him, and he said that he sweeps the floor at a fixed time, once every Thursday." Zhou Yi said seriously.

Hearing this, Gu Mengping fell into deep thought.Because as the caller, the people from Mu Zhiyuan's side were questioning the caller in detail, and he was not in a hurry to intervene, so it was somewhat surprising to hear the news at this moment.

"The murderer should be someone who is very sure about this, otherwise it would be impossible to know." Zhou Yi continued to analyze.

In the previous two cases, the murderer found the corpses on his own initiative, so the timing was very good, but this time the murderer did not make a move.

"Yes, this may not be a coincidence." Regarding this, Gu Mengping did not refute. The murderer must have a plan, there is no doubt about it.

I am familiar with the geographical location and the old man's working hours. The murderer may be hiding in that area, but a large-scale investigation is still too troublesome, and other auxiliary information is needed.

The repair shop arrived soon. Because it was a small shop and the location was remote, there was no monitoring setup. Gu Mengping and the others had to get information from the people who were on duty last Saturday.

But the result surprised Gu Mengping a little. The moment Gu Mengping showed the photo of the car, the other party had an impression. According to the staff's recollection, the reason why the impression was deep was that the other party was an elderly lame man who was not tall.

This is completely different from Gu Mengping's previous portrayal of the murderer. Judging from the footprints at the scene, the murderer should be a young man with a height of about 1.8 meters. The person mentioned by the staff may be another murderer. If so, then it also confirms Gu Mengping's previous conjecture was confirmed.

Cripple?Could it have something to do with the hands and feet of the deceased?

Gu Mengping felt that something was missing, there must be something missing, otherwise there would be no such empty feeling, he vaguely felt that there was something that could be connected together, but there was something missing, he fell into deep thought, quietly Let others dare not speak too much.

Si Qingyang kept staring at him, and after a while, Gu Mengping suddenly opened his eyes.

"Review the medical records, and read the medical records again." Gu Mengping said.

"But we have seen it many times, there is no problem..." Zhou Yi said, pulling his hair.

"The details, we forgot the details. At first we only focused on the failed cases, but what if the operation was successful?" Gu Mengping said.

When Zhou Yi heard the words, he suddenly realized that because he suspected that the patients were killing people for revenge, they focused on those few cases. They subconsciously focused on the failed cases from the very beginning. , After the fog is blown away, a new breakthrough will definitely be found.

After leaving the repair shop, they went directly to the hospital where the deceased was. Finally, in the record of the second deceased, three of them were amputated patients.

"Let Mu Zhiyuan investigate these three people." Gu Mengping said, his intuition is very accurate, the operations in these three cases are all said to be successful, but Gu Mengping does not think that the success of the operation means that the patients are satisfied, and inconvenient legs and feet are not always a problem. This is a good thing, and what patients want more is of course a full recovery.

Zhou Yi didn't delay either, and quickly sent the news to the captain. After Mu Zhiyuan received the news, he immediately asked his subordinates to check the patient's identity information.

"Are you still going to the third hospital?" Si Qingyang asked.

"Go, of course." Now that you have a breakthrough point, it doesn't mean you will definitely get useful information.

It was almost noon when Gu Mengping and his party arrived at Wu Bin's hospital, and there were relatively few patients. The nurse on duty yesterday was not there, and they happened to meet another doctor when they went to the office.

"Who are you looking for?" The voice was very gentle, and it was also a young doctor.

"Look for Dr. Wu Bin." When Zhou Yi was about to speak, Gu Mengping stopped him.

Hearing this, the other party said kindly, "He's not here this week, I'm taking over."

After getting the answer, something flashed through Gu Mengping's mind, but it disappeared quickly, and he didn't even have time to grasp the content.

"We need to see his medical records." Gu Mengping said.

The other party was taken aback, a little puzzled.When Gu Mengping showed his ID, the doctor immediately cooperated and brought out Wu Bin's previous medical records, which was quite a large pile of documents.

"It's been here since he entered the industry." The young man replied.

Gu Mengping asked while flipping through the pages: "What's your name?"

"Zhao Wei."

"Are you familiar with Wu Bin?"

"Yes, because I have been colleagues since I entered the industry, so the relationship is not bad, but it is not common in private." Zhao Wei paused after speaking, "After all, the working hours are long, and the rest days are not easy to disturb."

Gu Mengping raised his head and glanced at him, and when Zhao Wei met his gaze, he couldn't help asking: "What can you do with Wu Bin? I can call him and tell him."

"No need, I'll take these materials away first." Gu Mengping motioned Zhou Yi to put them in a bag, but Gu Mengping didn't continue to ask.

Walking out of the gate of the hospital, Gu Mengping looked a little dignified.

The news of the deceased has not been revealed yet, so Gu Mengping didn't ask thoroughly. After walking two steps, Gu Mengping stopped suddenly, and Si Qingyang who was walking behind him almost bumped into him, but he still stopped quickly with a quick reaction. The two are a little close.

"Quickly ask Mu Zhiyuan to turn on Wu Bin's phone." He said impatiently, and when he turned around, he bumped into the person behind him. Si Qingyang quickly grabbed him, and his eyes met.

The air froze instantly, and the waist was hot...
