Fire to the Abyss

The small "tsunami" caused by opening the warehouse door naturally also attracted the attention of several people in the warehouse. As soon as Xia Yan and the others stepped into the gate, a question came from not far away: "Who is it?"

Before Xia Yan could answer, the flashlight in his hand suddenly flashed twice, and then the battery ran out and went out.

"Tsk," Xia Yan tossed the flashlight casually, and after listening to the "gudong" sound when the flashlight entered the water, he replied arrogantly, "Police!"

The flashlight on Xia Yan's side has gone out, and the remaining light source is only a few moving light spots on the opposite side. If you look carefully, you can tell that it is the flashlight fixed on the helmet. From the number of flashlights, you can see that there are five people on the opposite side .After Xia Yan finished answering, the light spots moved around, occasionally stopping on a face, as if several people were looking at each other.

After a while, the voice that just asked the question sounded again, but the momentum was obviously much weaker: "Police, why are the police here? Have we done nothing wrong?"

Xia Yan: "Maliciously destroying company property, isn't that a crime?"

Before the flashlight went out, Xia Yan took a glance. The surroundings were full of overturned wine racks and broken wine bottles. The smell of wine in the water was so strong that it was intoxicating. It was obvious what these people were doing inside.It's just that he couldn't figure out how much hatred they would have to have with the company to take advantage of this moment to make trouble.

Seeing that the matter was exposed, the atmosphere on the opposite side became obviously tense, and they gathered together to discuss in low voices, but the sound transmission effect in this empty factory building was excellent, and the words of the discussion were transmitted into Xia Yan's ears without uttering a single word.

"What should I do, just run away?"

"How can you run in such a big water? Can you outrun the police?"

"Then what do you say? Are you going to be arrested obediently?"

"In my opinion, let's fight head-on and run away if we win. There are five of us, and we have weapons. Don't be shy!"

"Brother, I seem to have seen several of them just now..."

"It doesn't matter, they have no light source and can't see anything."

"No, brother, isn't it more obvious when we wear this thing on our head?"

……

After a heated discussion, the opinion of the radical brother was finally adopted. Several people took off their hats and picked up baseball bats to prepare for a big fight.

During the discussion, Xia Yan didn't stay idle here. With the help of the faint light outside the window, he found a handy weapon by his side - a wooden stick from the wine rack, and a scuffle kicked off.

Although the police have an absolute advantage in terms of combat effectiveness, due to the disadvantages of weapons - wooden sticks can hardly withstand being swung by a baseball bat, and the disadvantages of equipment - the opposite side wears a complete set of wading equipment, which is economical and affordable to keep warm, which is better than summer heat. The self-made small vest is much more useful, the number is disadvantaged-the police team has one less person than the warehouse destruction team, and the vision and experience are the same-both sides have no experience in fighting in the dark in the water. Because of this, the battle lasted for a while, However, the super high advantage in combat power is the key to victory. The melee ended with the victory of the police, and both sides were exhausted and out of breath.

Xia Yan stepped up to an iron frame and sat down, shouldering the baseball bat on his shoulders, looking down at the group of remnants and defeated generals: "Which one is Liu Yifa?"

No one said a word.

Everyone looked around, only to find that there were only four of the five people left.

"Damn! When did you run away? It's not kind!" The young man called "Big Brother" let out a dissatisfied "Bah" and shouted: "If I catch him, I will break my leg!"

Obviously, this elder brother has a very high prestige in the "Warehouse Destruction Team", about a hundred times higher than Xia Yan's prestige in the Chengzhou Detachment. When he threatened, someone sneezed not far away. Then there was the sound of splashing water.

Without further ado, Xia Yan jumped off the shelf and chased in the direction where the sound came out. A lot of water was discharged during the fight, and the water level only reached a little above his knees. As a man who can win all running championships, Xia Yan The contestant showed their strength very well. Yang Ming just strolled over, smiled at the "big brother" inexplicably, and said "Brother, I really have you", Xia Yan had already subdued Liu Yifa.

"Big brother" sighed sincerely: "The people's police are really reliable!"

Yang Ming didn't answer, but gave him a complicated look, what should I say?It's kind of weird to hear that from a criminal.

Surprisingly, when Liu Yifa was pushed down by Xia Yan, he was still tightly protecting a box of wine on his chest.

Xia Yan turned Liu Yifa, who was half kneeling in the water, and forced him to look at him, Liu Yifa slowly let go of the box in his arms under Xia Yan's cannibalistic gaze.

Xia Yan nodded in satisfaction, and asked sharply, "Do you know He Xiaonian?"

"Recognize, recognize."

Although Liu Yifa was indeed as described by the middle-aged man—he was quite strong, with a strong figure and a lot of strength, and his height was at least 1.8 meters, but his courage did not seem to catch up with his figure. With a small head and a cowardly and fearful expression on his face, it seems that instead of a handsome people's policeman in front of him, he is a scourge.

Xia Yan squatted in front of him: "How did you know each other?"

Liu Yifa: "...I, I am his fan."

"Oh?" Xia Yan lifted Liu Yifa from the ground, "Then what's the name of their band?"

Liu Yifa struggled weakly, but did not answer.

"To be honest," Xia Yan leaned forward with his upper body, and emphasized his tone, "How do you know He Xiaonian? What did you add to the goods you sent him?"

After listening to the second half of Xia Yan's sentence, Liu Yifa's expression changed from nervous to excited, and he defended articulately: "Officer, I didn't add anything! It was He Xiaonian who took the initiative to talk to me and encouraged me to get out of Curry. Steal the wine and sell it to him!"

Xia Yan: "Nothing was added? Who damaged the water pipe? Why did you destroy the goods?"

Liu Yifa: "It was us who did it. That's what the superiors instructed us to do. We also felt puzzled. The destruction of the goods was also instructed by the superiors."

Xia Yan's pupils shrank, and he realized that the situation was not good: "Which one is up?"

Liu Yifa: "It's the head of the warehouse who woke us up in the middle of the night and said it was a notice from the headquarters."

Xia Yan turned around and shouted at the people behind him: "Get out immediately, move fast!"

After speaking, he took Liu Yifa and went straight to the warehouse gate.After finally getting to the land, the middle-aged man who had been locked in handcuffs in the police car had disappeared, and the two guard colleagues were also knocked unconscious.

"Damn it!" Xia Yan thought back to that submissive middle-aged man who seemed to be able to see through at a glance just now, wishing to tear off the mask on his face and see what was hidden under his mask that had faded away. What color flesh and blood.

Xia Yan called a few people to deal with the wounded, put handcuffs on the "Warehouse Destruction Team", put them one by one into the police car, then grabbed Liu Yifa, put one hand on his shoulder, and asked in a deep voice: " Liu Yifa, what's in this wine? You know it, otherwise you wouldn't have run away with a box of wine just now."

Liu Yifa didn't answer, his gaze passed over the top of Xia Yan's head and landed not far behind him, he squinted his eyes and looked carefully, "Officer, there seems to be something there?"

Xia Yan followed his gaze and saw a puppet doll that he was very familiar with lying on the ground, with four letters under its round face - Zero.It's just that the smiling face seemed to be different from before. It was a peaceful and calm smile, without any hint of ferocity or terror.

Liu Yifa is a cowardly adult, and he will call all the threats as soon as he is threatened. Xia Yan quickly finished his question, grabbed his mobile phone and was about to call Liang Song, but found two unread messages.One was sent by Xia Lin. It was a photo of a puppet doll. Except for the different color of the doll’s expression and letters on the chest, it was almost exactly the same as the puppet doll that was just found on the ground. Here's what Zero said about the clue.

The other one was sent by Lu Yuan, which is very rare and only has two words - Anhao.

Xia Yan was thinking while dialing Liang Song's number, Lu Yuan actually still had such a few words, it seemed that he would suffer a few times in Xia Lin's hands.

In the interrogation room of the detachment, He Xiaonian refused to explain anything since Liang Song exposed his relationship with Ren Qiang, as if he had degenerated from a living person to a piece of wood, no matter what others asked, he would not answer. Threats and lures don't work at all, it's like turning on a switch to block all signals from the outside world.

Liang Song leaned on the back of the chair and stared at the ceiling with empty eyes, quickly analyzing He Xiaonian's behavior pattern in his mind.

The police seized Zhong Qing's mobile phone and a large amount of cash from Ren Qiang's residence. It is certain that Ren Qiang was responsible for the kidnapping.Judging from the fact that He Xiaonian deliberately concealed the call with Ren Qiang, there is no doubt that there is something wrong with He Xiaonian. Zhong Qing picked up Zhong Qing's wallet in the car and took it back.It can be inferred from this that He Xiaonian should be aware of the kidnapping of Zhong Qing, or it can be boldly guessed that he led the whole incident, and Ren Qiang was just a handy tool, so he specially hired someone to do it. Proof of presence.This point can be corroborated by the fact that He Xiaonian repeatedly asked the police to ask Ren Qiang for questioning before he knew Ren Qiang was dead. He must have known that Ren Qiang would not confess him to be so unscrupulous.

Liang Song originally thought that Ren Qiang's death might have been arranged by He Xiaonian, but He Xiaonian's reaction when he saw the photo was a real surprise and shock, which basically ruled out that Ren Qiang's death had anything to do with He Xiaonian.Since he didn't rely on silence to ensure that he would not be confessed, the rest may be that He Xiaonian has a handle on Ren Qiang, and the weight of this handle can allow Ren Qiang to bear the responsibility of kidnapping alone.It's just that when a person is dead, it's useless to hold a handle, so He Xiaonian's first self-protection measures have failed, and he can only start the second self-defense - no need to pretend to be ignorant, as long as he doesn't speak, he will Make no mistake.

To deal with a prisoner with such an attitude, ordinary methods will not work at all, unless his weakness is poked.

"Ah, it would be great if Xia Yan made progress faster."

Liang Song casually took a newspaper and spread it out, covering his face, ready to rest his overtime eyes and brain for a while. Just as his noisy brain calmed down, he was awakened by the sound of footsteps that could make the ground tremble. up.

Liang Song took the newspaper off his face, rubbed his eyes, and looked in the direction of the footsteps.

His frowning expression can be said to be a subconscious, instinctive reaction without any emotion, but it shocked Zhou Hengyu who came on the hot wheels, even though he had just seen Liang Song "tame" He Xiaonian in the interrogation room However, it was for facing suspects. Sometimes such means are indeed needed. Liang Song was very friendly to his colleagues. When he came out of the interrogation room, he nodded kindly to Zhou Hengyu.

When he frowned like this now, Zhou Hengyu immediately thought of a few frames of violent scenes, hurriedly stopped, lowered his head and apologized in a low voice: "Captain Liang, yes, I'm sorry."

Liang Song was stunned for a moment, and quickly came to his senses. He picked up the glasses on the table and put them on, and when he turned around, he had an impeccable and kind smile: "It's okay, don't make such a big noise when you walk, or you will disturb your colleagues——" Well, what's the matter?"

Zhou Hengyu respectfully handed the file bag in his hand to Liang Song: "Captain Liang, Ren Qiang's toxicology test report is out."

Liang Song opened the file bag and looked through it carefully. He stayed for a long time on a page marked by Forensic Zhou. There were several chemical substances with awkward names written on it. Forensic Zhou called at the right time.

"Team Liang, you've already got the toxicology test report, right? The ones I circled are all synthetic hallucinogens, which are very rare on the market, and are quite difficult to manufacture. A biological raw material is used in them. As far as I know, only in Australia."
