Forensics

It's the weekend again, and Gu Yanchen has an appointment at night.

Instead of having dinner with Shen Junci, he drove out to a restaurant.

This is a new Chinese restaurant. The decoration of the restaurant is a bit interesting, and the food tastes delicious.

This was a rare gathering of friends. The people at the same table were friends that Gu Yanchen met when he participated in the special training before. They were all police elites from the Municipal Bureau and nearby cities.

We haven't seen each other for a long time, talking all kinds of gossip.

Several of them are criminal investigators, so they inevitably talked about recent cases.

Someone complimented Gu Yanchen: "Captain Gu, your Special Criminal Division has solved a lot of cases recently and stole the limelight."

Immediately someone responded: "That's right, I read the police announcement, the case is solved quickly, and it is estimated that your team's year-end bonus will not be small."

Gu Yanchen said a few words modestly.

After drinking for three rounds, Captain Gu called one of them out.

The man's name was Yin Mingqing. He used to be Gu Yanchen's special training roommate. He was in the nearby Lincheng Bureau. He came here recently on a business trip.

It was already dark outside, and there were pavilions and pavilions with lakes and mountains in the yard, and they were standing under the trees and chatting.

Yin Mingqing handed him a cigarette, but Gu Yanchen didn't refuse, took it and lit it.

While smoking a cigarette, Gu Yanchen asked him casually, "By the way, are you from Lincheng?"

Yin Mingqing nodded: "Yes."

"Do you know the three children in Lincheng?"

"I used to stay there." Yin Mingqing smiled, "Brother Gu, how did you check the household registration and found the kindergarten."

Gu Yanchen said: "We just went to the kindergarten to do safety education. I have a colleague who was also in Lincheng when he was a child. It seems to be a kindergarten with you."

He checked Shen Junci's file and still remembered the specific information of the kindergarten.

Yin Mingqing asked: "Who is it? Male or female? Lincheng is not as big as this one. Only those schools have a good memory since I was a child. Maybe I have a little impression."

Gu Yanchen said: "Shen Junci, the forensic doctor in our team."

"Shen Junci?" Yin Mingqing blew a smoke ring, "I really remember that the kindergarten was in the same class as me. He was good-looking since he was a child, gentle and quiet, and the little girls in the kindergarten liked to play games with him. The teacher also likes him very much.”

Gu Yanchen flicked his cigarette butt and asked, "Did you go to an amusement park and ride a small train when you were in kindergarten?"

Yin Mingqing shook his head: "We haven't been to an amusement park in those years, alas, let alone an amusement park, we haven't even been to school."

This doesn't match what Shen Junci said to him before, but Gu Yanchen's voice was very calm: "Shouldn't it? Don't ordinary kindergartens organize activities?"

Yin Mingqing said: "Speaking of it, it was because when I went to the zoo last year, there was an accident and a child broke his bone. Parents made a fuss in the zoo. For safety reasons, all subsequent spring and autumn outings were cancelled. Just in school, we were never allowed to go out."

Gu Yanchen asked, "Are you sure?"

"Not sure!" Yin Mingqing said with a smile, "Brother, you are asking about the kindergarten. After so many years, I can't remember it clearly, even if I have a good memory. Maybe I remember it wrong."

Gu Yanchen asked: "Lincheng is not big, and later in elementary school and junior high school, have you heard of this person?"

Yin Mingqing recalled: "Elementary school and junior high school were not together. In high school, we were in the same school, not in the same class. At that time, he was famous in the whole school. Because he was good-looking, many girls liked him. He was the school girl in high school. I remember our class Girls will also form a group to see him take physical education or something, but it seems that his grades are average, and his physical education is not very good.

"what about others?"

"I heard that he passed the college entrance examination. His father helped him choose the major. We were surprised to hear that he chose this major. Later, he had a car accident at home, his parents died, and he was also injured. After graduating I stayed in Lincheng after that, and he worked for a while and entered the provincial department, so I don’t know for sure. It seems that Chief He values ​​him very much, and he never thought he would send him to Penang.”

Gu Yanchen extinguished the cigarette.

At the end of Yin Mingqing's speech, he asked strangely: "Captain Gu, why are you asking him so much? Didn't he make any mistakes in forensic medicine?"

Gu Yanchen said: "Don't think too much, I just gossip about my colleagues."

Yin Mingqing: "I don't think you are a gossip."

Gu Yanchen said: "I'll help people find out."

Yin Mingqing chatted here, provoked a smirk, and deliberately lowered his voice: "He is very popular with women, but he hasn't had a girlfriend in so many years. It seems that he has rejected a lot. I heard that it may be due to different orientations, but it's just Just heard it."

The two chatted a few more words before going in to continue eating.

In the second half of the meal, Gu Yanchen went to the front desk to pay the bill, and excused the bureau to withdraw early.

Gu Yanchen returned home and pulled out the kindergarten roster for the year Shen Jun resigned.

He scanned it and found that Yin Mingqing was indeed in the same class as Shen Jun.

Then he counted again, and there were only 22 children in the whole class.

Gu Yanchen rummaged through Lin Luo's information booklet. In the list in the kindergarten, there was also a class size of 25 students.

Gu Yanchen took out a record book, which recorded some clues encountered in life. At that time, Lin Xianglan taught him that a good brain is not as good as a bad pen, and that criminal investigations must be sharp and do not let go of any doubts.

So he developed a habit of writing down some things as soon as he felt there was a problem at the time, and looking back after a while, maybe he was connected.

One of the pages in the notebook is about Shen Junci.

Shen Junci denied knowing Lin Luo. He likes to eat food similar to Lin Luo's, and his words are similar to Lin Xianglan's. Wuliang at home likes him very much...

Gu Yanchen turned his head and looked at the wall on one side, the opposite was Shen Junci's residence.

He muttered to himself: "Shen Junci, what are you hiding?"

He could feel that Shen Junci was hiding something, and he might not have any malicious intentions.But Gu Yanchen didn't know why Shen Junci did this, and what kind of relationship he had with Lin Luo.

While walking the dog in the middle of the night, Gu Yanchen pulled the rope and sat on a stone bench outside the community, took out a cigarette and lit it.

Sitting in the yard, looking at the black-backed dog half a person tall, Gu Yanchen was full of thoughts.

He adopted the dog for one reason, and that was because he had seen it once before.

He knew this dog because of Lin Luo.

It was not long after Lin Xianglan passed away, and he suddenly had some interaction with Lin Luo.

The memory of that name is all fragments, but now in retrospect it is extremely clear.

In the past, the Bureau of Forestry always sighed at him, saying that Lin Luo was not reassuring, and the most common term he used was "that little lunatic".

During a break after lunch, this topic was brought up again.

Lin Xianglan lamented Lin Luo's madness.

Gu Yanchen said: "No one is perfect, Lin Luo's grades are so good."

Lin Xianglan said: "Smart means being really smart, but being stubborn and paranoid."

Gu Yanchen comforted him again: "Lin Luo seems quite obedient."

At that time, he had only seen a picture of Lin Luo from the Forestry Bureau. He was a handsome young man with good looks.

Director Lin shook his head and sighed: "You don't know, Lin Luo was very courageous when he was in elementary school, and he dared to try things that other children didn't dare to do at all. Our community is next to the Air Force Training Base, and there is an Air Force climber in it." The climbing frame is more than ten meters high. Once I went to find him and saw him standing on the highest point of the frame. There was a gap of more than one meter between the frames. I fell down. I was so scared that I was about to have a heart attack. After he got down, he actually said that no one else dared to go up, so he went up and tried. He also said that he was very careful. You said this child will not be beaten .”

Gu Yanchen smiled: "That means he is a material for the Air Force."

Bureau Lin shook his head and said: "No, he is so disobedient to discipline. Later, when he was older, because of his delicate looks, many boys provoke him and he learned to fight. I was still the captain at that time, and the head teacher would call me over every now and then. I'm afraid that this child will learn badly."

Gu Yanchen said: "That was when I was a child, who didn't do a few ignorant things when they were young?"

"You're just different from him." Bureau Lin squinted his eyes at him when he said this, "Xiao Gu, I think you might be able to hold him down."

Gu Yanchen raised his head and asked, "Bureau Lin, why did you say that?"

Bureau Lin said: "You are calm and prudent when you encounter things, you don't panic at all, you don't stick to the rules, but you don't follow the pedantic blindly. Cut black, maybe you can restrain Lin Luo and pinpoint his weakness."

At that time, the police officer on the side laughed and said: "Bureau Lin, what you said is right, you might as well recognize Dui Gu as your godson."

Some people made noises: "If this Lin Luo is a girl, maybe the Forest Bureau will recruit Gu Dui to be his son-in-law."

Facing these at the time, Gu Yanchen regarded them as casual chats and laughed them off.

Regarding the fact that Lin Luo is a little lunatic, Gu Yanchen only had a deep understanding after Lin Xianglan passed away.

He thought that Lin Xianglan had passed away and he had to take responsibility.

In case Lin Luo would cause trouble, he took extra care and ran to school to leave a phone call for Lin Luo's head teacher.

Unexpectedly, less than a week after school started, something happened before Lin Xianglan's funeral was arranged.

One night, the teacher called in a panic.

The conversation on the phone was a bit hasty, to the effect that Lin Luo had a fight with a classmate and injured him. She would accompany the student to the hospital first, and then make an appointment at school to discuss the follow-up.

When Gu Yanchen arrived at the school, he saw Lin Luo and another boy in the teacher's small office.

The classmate was beaten until his nose was blue and his face was swollen, his head was broken, and he was bandaged. He sat aside, moaning.

The parents of the other party came, and the middle-aged woman should be the mother, who was crying there, and the father was standing beside her, and his face was not very good-looking.

The whole family was there, with the female teacher in the middle, which made Lin Luo's thin figure stand aside.

But he seemed to be okay, with a calm face, looking sideways.

Gu Yanchen stepped in.

Hearing the teacher greet Gu Yanchen, Lin Luo turned his head and looked at him.

The head teacher was a female teacher with glasses. When she saw Gu Yanchen coming, she said to him, "This is Zhou Chen and his parents. He and Lin Luo are in the same dormitory. They were fighting tonight."

The boy who was beaten was a little unconvinced, and cursed in a low voice. Gu Yanchen could smell that he smelled not only of medicine, but also of alcohol.

Based on the principle of problem solving, he went straight to the topic: "How much is the medical bill? I will pay here."

Zhou Chen's father said: "Medical expenses are the most basic. My son's head and hands were injured, which may leave sequelae. In addition, he needs to go home to rest, nutrition expenses, missed tuition fees, and compensation are all necessary."

Zhou Chen's mother wiped her tears from the side: "My family will definitely call the police on this matter. For bad students who fight, the school should be expelled!"

Seeing this posture, Gu Yanchen felt a little helpless, and showed his police officer ID: "I am a policeman. I will report this matter to the police later."

Zhou Chen's mother looked at him: "Hey, it's great to know the police, no wonder they dare to beat people! Look at my son."

Gu Yanchen ignored him, and turned to Zhou Chen's father: "I will handle this matter fairly, is it public or private?"

Zhou Chen's father thought for a moment and said, "Go ahead."

Zhou Chen also added fuel and vinegar to the side: "I want him to go to jail."

Gu Yanchen said: "Let's talk about it first, what happened to the fight today, who started first?"

He thought in his heart that it might not be the first to strike when he was beaten hard. Lin Luo looked quiet, maybe he was the one who was bullied.

Lin Luo took the initiative to say from the side: "I did it."

Gu Yanchen: "..."

In one sentence, the table was dismantled.

Just as Gu Yanchen was about to ask again, Lin Luo took out his mobile phone and said, "I recorded what happened just now."

Then he didn't ask for the consent of these people, and released it directly.

Some malicious gossip from the boys came from the mobile phone. The recording was quite long and clear, and the small office became quiet.

Gu Yanchen heard a general meaning.

The drinking boy was chasing a girl before, but the girl rejected him and turned to add Lin Luo's WeChat.Zhou Chen felt that he had lost face because of a broken relationship, and everyone in the dormitory was gossiping and ridiculing.He couldn't hold back his face, so he scolded Lin Luo there with the help of alcohol.

"Don't you rely on your good-looking face, knowing that I'm chasing Song Lan and still waving in front of her eyes?"

"What about you! Who do you show your cold face every day? You need to clean up, don't you?"

"You son of a bitch, pretend to be deaf and dumb. You wear a black hoop every day, and it's bad luck even in this dormitory. Your father is dead. Maybe he did something bad before he was alive, whether he took bribes or fell asleep. He shouldn't have slept. ? This is the current newspaper."

After saying this, there was a sound like something being thrown on the ground, and then there was a fight.

Lin Luo pressed the phone and said, "He broke the MP4 my father gave me. It was the last birthday present my father gave me before his death."

Zhou Chen woke up from the wine at this time, and his face changed a little.

His father just passed away, so he really deserves a beating for talking like that and doing things like that.

Gu Yanchen only felt that Lin Luo didn't hit hard enough, if it wasn't for his status that he couldn't do it, he would have wanted to slap him a few times.

Zhou Chen's parents couldn't hold back anymore, and the office was quiet for a while.

Gu Yanchen understood that Lin Luo kept a low profile at school, and no one in the class knew that his father was the director of the city bureau before.As soon as Lin Xianglan died, they bullied Lin Luo, and he deserved the beating.

He made the matter clear, and he didn't want to just let it go. He still wanted to play a trick, and let Lin Luo have a long memory by the way.

Thinking of this, he took out a pair of handcuffs and walked up to Lin Luo.

The female teacher was frightened by this battle, and hurriedly stopped her: "Captain Gu, the small friction between students is not enough..."

Gu Yanchen said in a righteous tone: "In a fight, it's always wrong for Lin Luo to strike first. If it's public, he will be detained."

But then Gu Yanchen changed the subject, turned his head to face the parents and said, "However, since we are the father, we must treat the father. You can't just punish one side. You have also heard the recording just now. Lin Luo's father just Passed away, his father was my former leader, your son is suspected of slandering civil servants, and he also damaged Lin Luo’s belongings. I will keep the evidence, and I will ask a lawyer to prosecute, and may be sentenced to three years in prison.”

As soon as these words came out, the faces of the two parents suddenly changed.

Zhou Chen's father was stunned for a moment and said: "This is the friction between the children, those few words are drunken bastards..."

Zhou Chen's mother also changed her words: "It's private, we are private."

Gu Yanchen stood next to Lin Luo, looking as if he was scolding him, but his words meant something: "You must be going to the detention center for a few days, and I will pick you up later. You are not young anymore, you are already big Four, adults are responsible for what they do.”

Lin Luo cooperated with him in acting, bowed his head and said, "Okay."

"Forget it, forget it, there is something wrong with my son." Zhou Chen's mother hurriedly said.

Zhou Chen's father even came to his senses: "Oh, I'm sorry, it's all my son's fault. He's cheap and pays back the debt. My family will take care of the medical expenses and we'll pay for the repairs. You don't have to disturb the school and the police station. You are also very busy at work. Yes." As he spoke, he pushed the boy, "Aren't you going to apologize to Lin Luo?"

Zhou Chen was also a little scared at this time, his eyes were still swollen, and he stammered, "Yes, I'm sorry...that, I didn't mean it."

Gu Yanchen asked Lin Luo, "What do you think?"

Lin Luo didn't raise his eyebrows, and said coldly, "Forget it, it's a trivial matter."

Gu Yanchen didn't pursue the request to deal with it, and turned to the teacher and said, "Then please change Lin Luo to a dormitory."

After the matter was settled, Gu Yanchen brought Lin Luo out, and he asked Lin Luo, "Are you injured?"

Lin Luo shook his head: "I was kicked twice, it's not serious, nothing happened."

Gu Yanchen couldn't believe him, checked his hands and feet, and felt relieved after seeing that there were no obvious injuries: "If you feel uncomfortable later, you must tell me, sometimes internal injuries can be dangerous if they are prolonged."

Lin Luo bowed his head and hummed, his eyebrows and eyes were very delicate, and his wrists were so thin that Gu Yanchen could grab them with one hand.It doesn't look like a word of disagreement will violently beat people.

Gu Yanchen said: "I can't tell, you're pretty good at fighting."

Lin Luo: "Fighting depends not only on physical strength, but also on brain."

Gu Yanchen: "Ju Lin said that you used to fight a lot and were called a parent by your teacher."

"He didn't care about me for a while. Only by calling my dad to school can he remember that there is still my son." Lin Luo said with regret at this point, "However, I haven't fought for a long time. gone."

Gu Yanchen asked him again: "Today, are you ready for me to come? Why did you record the sound?"

"I didn't know you were here." Lin Luo stopped and stood in the campus. The moonlight shone on his face, making him look pale and quiet.

"The recording on my mobile phone is more than this one. In fact, he scolded me for three and a half years. I used to wear earphones and pretend that I didn't hear it. They don't know what my father does, and they don't know that I can fight. I Didn't even talk back."

Gu Yanchen frowned.

Lin Luo continued to speak calmly: "After my dad became the chief of the bureau, I haven't had any fights, because I don't want to be sued in the city bureau and let people say that the chief's son fought. I don't want to embarrass Lao Lin."

He looked ahead calmly: "But now that my father has passed away, I don't have to care about other people's opinions, and I can finally beat him up."

Looking at the expression on Lin Luo's face at that time, Gu Yanchen finally knew why Lin Xianglan would always say that Lin Luo was a little lunatic when he was mentioned.

A rational lunatic, a little dangerous but also touching.

For a moment, it even aroused Gu Yanchen's desire to conquer, a little wanting to try to get closer to him, and to know more about him.

Just two days after this incident, a typhoon suddenly blew up, and it was windy and rainy on Friday night. As soon as he got off work, Lin Luo suddenly called him.

He answered the phone, and Lin Luo's voice was a little hasty: "Gu Dui, it's raining today and I can't get a taxi. I have something to go to the City Bureau, can you give me a ride if you have time..."

Although Lin Xianglan left him a message to take care of Lin Luo, but in his memory, it was the first time Lin Luo asked him for help.

He didn't ask what was the matter. He didn't have to work overtime that day, his car was empty, and he drove to the gate of the university as soon as possible, because the water was still not deep.Lin Luo opened the umbrella and got into the car.

Lin Luo had obviously been at the door for a long time at that time, and was drenched all over.

He asked, "Where are you going?"

Lin Luo gave an address and said, "Go to the Third Animal Hospital near the Municipal Bureau."

He started the car: "Do you have pets that are sick?"

Gu Yanchen has been to Lin's house more than once, and has seen a dog leash, but never a dog.

Lin Luo said: "It's the police dog in the team."

He took Lin Luo to the Third Pet Hospital.

After Lin Luo entered the door, he went to find the old policeman who was guarding the police dog, and then led him into a postoperative observation room.

The old policeman explained to Lin Luo: "This afternoon, someone took advantage of the rain to transport drugs, and was discovered by the anti-narcotics side, and two people were injured. Among several police dogs, he was the bravest, if it hadn't bitten off the Gun, I'm afraid the casualties will be even more serious."

The house smelled of blood.

A Hebei police dog was lying on the table. It was obvious that it had just finished the operation and had just woken up.The dog's abdomen was wrapped in thick gauze.When it saw Lin Luo, it wanted to stand up, but the injury was too serious, and it took a lot of effort to support its head.

The old policeman said again: "It was seriously injured. The doctor said that he didn't know if he could survive tonight. After the operation and anesthesia, he kept screaming. The policeman who took him couldn't calm him down. I thought of you ...After all, it was raised by you when it was a child."

Lin Luo's eyes were red, he walked over, hugged the dog's neck, stroked the fur on the back of its neck, and the dog gradually calmed down.

"I will be with you, you must survive." Lin Luo comforted softly, and he rubbed Gouzi's head, "It's okay, it's going to be okay, you'll be fine, I'm still waiting for you to follow after your honorable retirement." I'm going home."

Gouzi seemed to be able to understand what he said, and lay down quietly. The doctor gave painkilling injections, but the effect was limited.There were tears in Gouzi's eyes, and his body twitched uncontrollably because of the pain.

Lin Luo hugged the dog even tighter: "I don't have a father anymore, I only have you now..."

The rain that day was indeed heavy, as if it was pouring down from the sky, and there was thick water on the ground.It was windy and windy outside, and the wind kept whistling. It felt like the small animal hospital would be swept away by the wind at any time.

It's like the center of a storm.

Lin Luo was guarding the dog in the house, while Gu Yanchen sat on a chair outside the door and watched him.

At that time, he was thinking, it turned out that Lin Luo had a dog, and he had such a gentle side, what else did he not know about the young man in front of him?

In addition to dogs, cats, and sheep in the hospital, there was even an alpaca in the zoo. In the wind and rain, the wailing of the animals was mixed.

They stayed with them until the early hours of the morning, and the dog passed through the dangerous period, and they could only leave when they fell asleep.

The typhoon was too strong that day, and he couldn't send Lin Luo to school, so he took Lin Luo to his house.

He asked Lin Luo to take a shower first, and then brought him his clean clothes to change into.

After Lin Luo had finished taking a shower, he went in to take a shower. When he came out, he saw Lin Luo sitting on the bay window sill of his house, holding a book in his hand, and looking down.

Gu Yanchen's gaze stayed on Lin Luo.

That book was left there by his sister the last time she came over. It was "The Little Prince" written by a French author.

He has read it several times, and he still remembers the content inside. He likes many passages very much, and he will have new insights every time he reads it.

It was still stormy outside.

Lin Luo had just taken a shower. His skin was very fair, his hair was slightly curly, and he was wearing a T-shirt that was one size bigger, revealing a white jade-like collarbone.When he lowered his head, his long eyelashes fell down, leaving curved shadows.

I don't know which passage he saw, or he thought of his father, or the seriously injured dog. There was a trace of loneliness and desolation between the boy's brows. Under the light, it looked like a painting.

Gu Yanchen found that when Lin Luo was bowing his head and being quiet, he felt like a little prince from the stars.

But at that time he forgot that the little prince would eventually return to his planet.

Afterwards, Wuliang survived and recovered, and continued to fight on the front line.

But not long after, something happened to Lin Luo.

Until a few years later, Gu Yanchen saw the dog at the police dog retirement ceremony.

He recognized it at a glance, the same color, lonely eyes, the dog lowered its head.

At that moment, Gu Yanchen suddenly thought, if no one came to pick it up, would it think it was abandoned by its owner?

But the fact is that the master who promised to take him home is no longer there.

At that time, his footsteps suddenly stopped.

Having never had a pet before, he ran to the police dog on impulse and said, "This dog doesn't need to be adopted, I want to keep it."

When he got off work that day, he took the dog leash, and stroked the dog's fur according to the movements in his memory. Heiback's body was hot, and the hair was not long, but it felt smooth to the touch.

He said: "In the future, come home with me."

Gouzi is human, he raised his head to look at his new owner, let out a sigh of relief, and obediently followed him away.

At night, Gu Yanchen sat in the yard, Wuliang watched the master not move for a long time, and came over to lick his hand.

Gu Yanchen was startled and ended his memories.

He threw the cigarette in his hand, which was so burned that only the butt was left, into the trash can beside him.

By now, he understood.

Shen Junci looked calm and gentle on the surface, but for some reason, it always reminded him of the boy he didn't protect back then.

Especially when he saw the wound on Shen Junci's arm in the corridor that day.

He is feeling sorry for him.

Just like back then, when he saw Lin Luo's lonely expression sitting on the window sill, his heartbeat suddenly changed.

The author has something to say:

Gu Yanchen: Yes, I just like wild horses.
