The next day, Sunday morning, at the Office of the Criminal Investigation Detachment of the Municipal Bureau.

This time it was seven in the morning.

Although my legs are still a little sore, some indescribable parts have not recovered, and I am in a good mood recently and have not fully entered the working state, but not going to work for three days is really too much.

The main thing is that the two of them work in the same unit, and they don't go to work together, so it's easy for people to see the clues.

I was bumped into an embarrassing scene yesterday. I came out of the closet on a small scale when I first fell in love. Before falling in love, I have done everything that should be done. The speed is comparable to launching a rocket. It's time to brake and slow down.

Yesterday's fire failed to ignite in the end. After being interrupted by Brother Ji Heng for a while, the two of them returned to their senses, and they still restrained a little bit, and didn't try randomly on the verge of being unable to walk with a broken waist and legs.

It is not too late to fight again in the future.

Thanks to the two of them restraining themselves a little for a day, Yan Cun walks the same way as usual at work today, his neck is covered by the collar of his shirt, and he should not be able to see anything except for the injury from the corner of his mouth bitten by a tiger tooth after a too intense kiss The clues come.

perfect.

I got up early today, and when the two arrived at the office, there was no one there, so Ji Liao pulled up a chair and sat in front of Captain Yan’s desk openly, opened a bottle of milk for Yan Cun, and asked, “Do you have to go to the East City soon? Ask the sub-bureau about the disappearance case that He Jiu mentioned last time? It’s about the disappearance of Gao Kuiliang’s distant relative.”

Yan Cun nodded: "Yes."

On the second day of dating, he got tired of it for several days, and then he remembered that he hadn't had time to look through the group chat messages of the detachment for the past few days, and turned up one by one: "Last time, Shen Lin said that there was an important clue to report, what did you post?" I almost forgot the picture of the 'Twilight Fire' brand."

In the past when he was in school, he heard that falling in love would affect his grades. He didn't quite believe it, but now he has definitely realized it.

Last night, while Ji Liao was taking a shower, he specially downloaded a 'Countdown Days App', and secretly recorded the number of days in love - it doesn't necessarily affect his grades, it's true that he becomes childish.

No, it's impossible. A person with poor self-control will be affected by love at work, but he won't.

Take it easy, take it!

He drank a bottle of milk in a few sips, he was full, and it was still a long time before he went to work at eight o'clock, so he simply took a stroll outside, and it would not be too late to calm down later.

When they returned to the office around eight o'clock, the others were basically there, ready to get down to business.

"Oh." Finally, when Captain Yan came to ask in person, Shen Lin was a little nervous, and said with a deep breath: "I said it's time to wait, I just said it to others yesterday, and I said it for a long time, and I have to say it again today .”

"I've been a little busy these days." Pulling a chair and sitting at the desk with Ji Liao, Yan Cun asked, although he could guess most of the time, "Tell me, what's going on with the 'Muhuo' brand?" Son."

"Hmm..." Shen Lin organized his words for a while, "It was the time when the factory caught fire - in fact, when I went to Yan Peifeng's study to investigate a few days before the fire, I saw this engraved 'Twilight Fire' in his drawer. At the time, I didn’t really pay much attention to the signboard, it seemed like it was just an ordinary decorative metal signboard.”

He opened the drawer, took out the sign and handed it to the two of them.

"Could it be some kind of USB flash drive?" Yan Cun reached out to take it, and fiddled with the metal plate for a while, it looked like a tiger charm made of patterns, and it was a bit secondary, "Could it be a tracking locator? "

"My God, Captain Yan, you are so good!" Shen Lin stretched out his hand and gave a thumbs up: "You guessed it right, it's the locator, Captain Yan is awesome! Captain Yan is amazing!"

"...???" Caught off guard by the compliment, Yan Cun was almost frightened by the things in his hands, and hesitantly raised his eyes to stare at Shen Lin for a while——the mental state has recovered well, why does he seem to be quite happy? ?

"What’s wrong with you?"

A few days ago I was crying and chirping, but today I was smiling. Great sadness and joy came too soon.

"Ah?" Shen Lin scratched his head, "No, it's nothing..."

"Really...?" Witty Xiaoyan didn't quite believe it, and quickly noticed the clue, and asked tentatively, "How is Lianyi recovering from her injury?"

"Very, very good, she said that the pain is not so bad today." Shen Lin replied quickly, wondering if he was being too obvious, and quickly restrained his tone.

"Understood." This is dating, Yan Cun asked, "When did you get together?"

"Uh..." Shen Lin rubbed his ears in embarrassment, "The day before yesterday."

"Very good." Yan Cun nodded, different days, love anniversary is unique.

He coughed lightly: "Go on, let's talk about the business first."

"Uh, okay." Shen Lin came back to his senses, "Well, I didn't pay much attention to this small metal plate at the time, until later when my friend went into Yan Peifeng's office to look through the drawers, except for the piece of paper 'B5-108' In addition to the photo of Luo Qingsen falling from the building, he also saw the "Twilight Fire" sign in the drawer. I looked at the photos he took at that time, and the position of the notch on the sign was exactly the same as the one in Yan Peifeng's drawer. It should be Same brand."

"Hmm..." Yan Cun thought for a while.

"There were not enough clues at the time, and I didn't think about the previous cases, but I was a little suspicious." Shen Lin said, "I heard Team Jiang analyze the clues yesterday, and Gao Kuiliang was involved in the three cases. I suspect that someone is deliberately targeting Gao. Kui Liang and Yan Peifeng. Then I thought of the 'Zhu Ying' and 'Gao Jie' in the previous two cases and the 'Twilight Fire' this time, and wondered...whether someone is manipulating all this behind the scenes."

Perhaps these three cases seem to be resolved on the surface, but in fact the murderer caught is just a scapegoat. Who is still hiding behind the scenes to observe all this quietly.

"You didn't tell me such an important clue..." Yan Cun was about to faint from anger, "Forget it, you continue first."

"No, it's not." Shen Lin also felt guilty, "I didn't think too much about it at the time, everything happened so fast, I didn't have time to doubt it... until I got that phone call while I was working in the factory."

"What did you say on the phone?" Yan Cun said 'tsk': "I asked you about the phone, right? How did you answer me? Did you lie to me? Or did you make it up on the spot?"

"...I was wrong, I was really wrong about Dui Yan." Shen Lin quickly replied: "No, I didn't lie to you, I didn't make it up, but I only said half of it at the time."

Ji Liao coughed.

"What about the other half?" Yan Cun asked.

"Well... the other half... the person on the phone told me..." Shen Lin took a deep breath, "He said something might happen to my aunt."

When it came to his aunt, his tone was uncontrollable and a little low, but he was obviously much calmer than before, so he finished in one breath: "He said that Yan Peifeng knew some secrets that he shouldn't know, and people were watching him, saying that I shouldn't Continuing to investigate and getting closer to the truth will only harm people around you, and those who know these secrets will be targeted by those people."

"..." Yan Cun said outrageously, "Continue."

"The man said he was 'the one on our side', he predicted what was going to happen, that someone was trying to hurt people around me, told me that someone was going to hurt my aunt, that my aunt was very likely He will die from arson by others, and he even has a clear grasp of the clues that can be obtained during the police investigation."

"He said I was the only one who could stop it, that if I could get that badge, they would help me."

"I doubted it in my heart. I guessed if it was just a thief shouting "stop the thief", but everything that happened next was the same as what was said on the phone. You and Lianyi were injured because of me." Shen Lin's voice was a little unsteady, "I really I couldn’t believe it, I didn’t think I could prevent this from happening until that night, when I found the ‘Twilight Fire’ brand in the pocket of Lianyi’s coat... I was really scared.”

"Understood." Yan Cun nodded, "Create pressure on you through multiple attacks, and we are showing that they are secretly, it is too passive."

"Yes... yes." Shen Lin nodded, "I secretly threw away this sign, but after that I found the same sign at my aunt's house and at my own home."

He said softly: "Quietly, everywhere, whenever I want to discuss with you, I will soon receive a threatening text message and find a small threatening note in my pocket. I am not very Believe me, but on the other hand I was afraid, I kept thinking that someone would want to kill my aunt, even if I killed her, I never thought it would be Yan Hezai."

"Small note??" Yan Cun sensed something, "... Threats... SMS?"

"Yes." Shen Lin took a deep breath: "But now I'm thinking about it. I have never understood, I'm just a rookie, how can this be targeted at me."

He added: "I almost doubt whether it is someone from the police."

Yan Cun was stunned for a while, as if he thought of something through this 'threat text message', he was taken aback by the 'inside the police', and his back felt a little chilly.

He turned his head to look at Ji Liao, hesitated for a while, and opened his mouth after a long time: "Damn...that...before..."

Ji Liao blinked at him inadvertently.

"Oh... oh." The tacit understanding was perfect, and Yan Cun quickly understood, and first said to Shen Lin: "Okay, okay, I understand. You just stay in the team honestly recently, and if you have any clues, follow up as soon as possible. I said, it’s okay to talk to Jianghuai.”

He added another sentence: "Let's talk about this matter later, we have to go to the Dongcheng branch to ask about Gao Kuiliang later."

Shen Lin nodded and said good.

So the two looked at each other and got up, went back to their seats first, pondered for a while before they heard that, and found an excuse to go out for a short meeting.

Opening the car door and sitting in the passenger seat, Yan Cun took a deep breath and asked first: "Last time you told me about the fire at my parents, the threatening text message that neighbor received, and the clues we knew before. , do you want to talk to them?"

"Hmm..." Ji Liao fastened his seat belt and started the car, "I tend not to say anything."

"Why?" Yan Cun asked, "Because this person may be 'inside the police'?"
