fool.

Zhao You stood by Xiaoman's bed and watched him for a while, watching him breathe steadily, his brows and eyes stretched, and then he stretched his hands back, pressed the armrests of a nearby armchair, and gently, almost He sat down without making any sound.His gaze never left Xiaoman for a moment.Xiaoman's left hand was put in a plaster cast, his right shoulder was re-wrapped with a bandage, the back of his hand was tied with a needle, and he was hanging salt water, and the needle was stitched on his forehead, where the old scar on his temple was. At this time, the wound was covered with a Gauze, I can't see how many stitches were stitched, and the tape sticking to the gauze stretched into his blue scalp.Xiaoman's hair was shaved very short.His eyelashes fluttered suddenly, Zhao You hurriedly got up and asked him, "Would you like some water?"

With her eyes still closed, Xiao Man whispered, "Go to sleep for a while."

Before he finished speaking, there were two knocks on the door.Xiao Man just smiled: "How long has it been, has one day passed?"

Zhao You tucked the blanket for him and said, "I'm going to eat something."

Xiao Man reminded: "What's the matter, wait for us... wait for us and Xiao Yin, Xiao Jing to return to Qingshi."

Zhao You agreed, turned around and opened the door, and faced Director Yan who was standing outside.Zhao You couldn't hide his sadness. He glanced at Director Yan and hesitated to speak, then Director Yan said first: "Xiao Zhao, how is your friend? I heard that he was seriously injured! This time he was injured. A lot of crimes, right?" Director Yan felt distressed, and looked into the ward behind Zhao You, "Have you found a nurse? Have you notified his family and friends?"

Zhao You went out of the ward, closed the door, and said weakly: "The doctor said there was nothing serious. He used to be in the police force. His father and many of his relatives and friends are also in the police system. I haven't notified him yet. His family, that's what he meant, he was afraid that they would rush over from all over the world to see him, so he wouldn't be able to rest well."

Director Yan smiled knowingly, and patted Zhao You on the shoulder.Zhao You asked, "Why are you here? It's so early in the morning..." He looked left and right, "Are you alone?"

Director Yan is indeed alone, he said: "Isn't this the person who can't contact you? I'm worried. You said that if you have any troubles with our young backbones in Yiqing City, how can I explain to the leaders of your city bureau?" ah."

Zhao You was embarrassed, and smiled: "You said that," he blinked, and asked curiously: "Xiao Lin, just in front of the forest house, didn't I tell you that I was not injured?"

Mentioning the name "Lin Sheqian", Director Yan frowned, squeezed out the word "Chuan", pointed forward, and said, "Have you had breakfast? Go downstairs and have something?"

"Okay, okay." Zhao You and Director Yan walked side by side in the corridor of the hospital. In the early morning, only some nurses and nursing staff were walking around in the hospital. .

"Xiao Lin, he was also injured. He brought someone back to the hospital and came to the hospital. He told me a little bit. I saw his injury, so it's not easy to ask him endlessly." Director Yan said, he couldn't help but wonder, "Why did you leave your mobile phone in someone else's car?"

Zhao You was also very puzzled: "I don't know, maybe I dropped it when I paid for breakfast earlier, hey, someone found my phone?"

In an orthopedic ward for four people, someone whimpered and cried out in pain.The bell at the nurse's station rang, and the sound was shrill, and it was especially harsh when it was heard in this quiet corridor.

Director Yan said, "Ah, um... yes."

Zhao You looked at him expectantly, Director Yan smiled apologetically: "I forgot to bring it to you, it's left in our city bureau, don't worry, the phone is still there, there is no need to report the loss of any bank card Alipay What."

Zhao You nodded, smiled, Director Yan smiled again, put his hands behind his back, and said: "Then...then what, your mobile phone fell on the car, and the car was parked in the parking lot of the seafood market. An administrator, when he was patrolling at night, when he heard his cell phone ringing, Xiao Gao wanted to contact you all the time, so he kept calling you, which scared the administrator very much."

Zhao You scratched his hair and bent over to look at Director Yan. Director Yan was shorter than him. Zhao You took it by himself: "Then the administrator went to the local police station?"

"Ah, yes, the main thing is that the car was parked there without paying the overnight fee. According to the rules, it was to be towed away. The administrator saw that there was a mobile phone in the car, and the mobile phone kept ringing. He thought it was the owner of the car, and thought something happened to the owner. , isn’t it near the sea, many people go there to commit suicide, park their cars there and jump into the sea.”

"Oh...that's it," Zhao You nodded, and then sighed in surprise, "I don't know that there is such a place."

While talking, he and Director Yan walked to the elevator and waited for it.Director Yan asked, "What happened to you on that island?"

"Has Xiaolin not reported to you yet?"

"He said that your friend took him to the sea to investigate the case. Because of the typhoon, he hit a rock near a deserted island. When he was looking for water, he found a dead body. Teacher Xu from Hehe Island also arrived on the island somehow. At that time, she It was very out of control, and then I met you and another teacher on the island, Wang William, who appeared with Ge Junhua, but he didn't understand the situation, the surname Xu and Wang quarreled, and Xu shot and killed In short, the scene is out of control, and he is also at a loss."

Zhao You looked up at the elevator, which was slowly coming from the upper floor to the fifth floor where they were, and said, "I'm also quite confused. I heard Teacher Wang and Teacher Xu quarreling, it seems to be because of the corpse on the desert island. You have to ask Teacher Xu for details.”

"We've got her under control. She's not emotionally stable now, and she's showing suicidal tendencies many times. We injected her with a sedative, and she's still lethargic." Director Yan said, looking sideways at Zhao You, " Then before you went to the desert island, what happened on Turtle Island?"

Zhao You said: "Oh, I just wanted to verify everyone's identities. When there was a typhoon, everyone was trapped in a house. The typhoon was so scary. It was windy and rainy, and the power was cut off. I had to light candles, there was nothing to eat there..."

The elevator was late, Director Yan pressed the down button a few times, looked around, a few nurses gathered and waited for the elevator together, he winked at Zhao You, Zhao You shut up .The two waited silently for the elevator. When the elevator arrived, they went in, followed by two male nurses and a cleaning lady. They pressed all the floors one to five.Director Yan clicked his tongue in displeasure, and Zhao You asked him, "Is there a place for breakfast around here?"

"Breakfast? That's too much, buns, steamed buns, omelets, there are at the door, young man, KFC is also very close." The cleaning aunt said enthusiastically.

Zhao You smiled and asked, "Are there any local characteristics?"

"Duck and radish soup!"

The elevator stopped on the fourth floor, and a nurse went out.

"Duck soup in the morning?" Zhao You asked.

"Make it up!"

On the third floor, the elevator door opened, and another nurse left, and two nurses, a man and a woman, came in.Auntie Clean and Zhao You counted the benefits of duck soup: "Drinking in summer is the most nourishing, not greasy, refreshing..."

Director Yan dragged Zhao You out from the third floor.The two walked into the safe passage and went down the stairs. Director Yan said, "Do you know about Zhou Sichang's suicide?"

Zhao You nodded, walking at a steady pace: "Yes, I know, I heard about it from the radio before going to the island."

"As for the person, we did an autopsy, and the body was directly cremated. Zhou Sichang has no family members. He only contacted a distant cousin. He has already taken away the ashes."

"How did he..." Zhao You asked softly.

"Toothbrush." ​​Director Yan pointed to his throat, sighed, turned around and pinched Zhao You's shoulder, "It was indeed suicide, there is nothing to doubt about it, he committed suicide in fear of crime."

"Is this definitive?"

Director Yan said: "I think he didn't expect that Yan Mingming's body would be found. Xiao Gao said that when you brought him the news that day, his expression turned ugly and he said a lot of inexplicable things."

Zhao You said: "It's quite inexplicable. It seems to have nothing to do with the case. It has no logic at all. I don't remember it..."

Director Yan smiled: "Things without logic are hard to remember."

Zhao Youdao: "Then do you think Yan Mingming's body was really abandoned in some cave in the deep mountains and old forests by him? Then how did he do it? Moreover, the body was thrown in the cave just like that. No matter how inaccessible the cave is, then his heart is too big, right? Why do you think it will not be discovered?"

Director Yan said: "According to the evidence we have now, it is preliminarily judged that someone helped him throw the body."

Zhao You hurriedly put aside the relationship: "It's really not me."

Before they knew it, they had already reached the ground floor. Director Yan stopped on the last step and looked sideways at Zhao You: "Didn't Zhou Sichang's suicide note mention his accomplices?"

"Why do you want to check this? Don't you know who gave you the suicide note?" Director Yan pointed to the exit and walked over. Zhao You followed him and said, "I'm quite puzzled. I don't know who put the suicide note in my pocket." Here, I only found out while sitting on the boat on the island. When did you say Zhou Sichang died? The suicide note must have been discovered after that, so it was taken out of the detention center, right? I recalled that after that time, who was able to approach me and slipped the suicide note to me without anyone noticing it.” He said frankly, “To be honest, I was actually quite surprised when I saw the suicide note.”

"You doubt the authenticity of the suicide note?"

"Correct."

"How to say?"

"Ms. Zhou..." Zhao You looked at the people around him. The ground floor of the inpatient department was busier than the upstairs, and some doctors and nurses came and went. ..."

Zhao You couldn't speak anymore, only sighed.Director Yan patted him again, and walked out of the inpatient department building together with him. The hot and humid air hit his face. Where did it fall, it disappeared, it’s over, it’s over..." He hurriedly asked Director Yan, "This suicide note is just one copy... why is it gone... Even if it is forged, there may be some clues, maybe there will be some clues. Find out who forged it... Hey, why is it missing??"

He hurriedly fumbled through the upper and lower pockets, sweating profusely.Director Yan hurriedly comforted him: "It's okay, it's okay, don't worry, you may have landed on that island, it's okay, the witnesses have already gone to the island, if we find anything, we will know."

"The suicide note... that's the only one... If it's true..." Zhao You was angry and hated, "You said that I... really can't do anything well, the suicide note is gone, and my friends are hurt... ..."

Director Yan persuaded him and said, "Don't blame yourself too much for your friend's affairs." He said, "His body was found at three o'clock in the morning, but the suicide note was written when he was having dinner that night. The restaurant sent it, and he wrote many copies, just because he found out that he had done such a thing, he was locked up, and the guards discovered that he had committed suicide in the confinement room after three o'clock.

"In the evening... on the 17th, I remember that in the evening, there was Pang Dalong, a criminal investigation officer from the Municipal Bureau. One of his partners contacted me, and then I went out for supper and came back to sleep," Zhao You recalled, "The people I contacted after that , Xiao Wang, the driver of Hedao Island, and then I took the boat. I found the suicide note when I was on the boat, or we went to check the monitoring of the seafood market. I have been there and there are quite a lot of people.”

"He told me about Dalong, I'm sorry, Xiao Zhao." Director Yan and Zhao You made a gesture, "Let's go to the nearby rice noodle shop to eat something."

Zhao You waved his hand: "It's okay, they are also investigating the case, who would have thought of such a coincidence."

Director Yan suddenly straightened his face, and said, "But Xiao Zhao, there is one thing I have to criticize you for."

Zhao You drooped his head and said, "I know, you want to say that I have not confirmed the authenticity of the suicide note, so I disclosed it to others."

Director Yan slapped his hands hard: "This has made..." He was indeed a little angry, "People are panicked, and no one dares to speak up. Some people know the content of the suicide note and don't want to offend the Ge family. People from the Ge family, what do you think is going on?"

"So...you have met Ge Junhua and them?" Zhao You was still very sorry, "I didn't think about it, I just thought that each of them was weird, as if they were hiding something, I had that suicide note in my hand at the time , I just want to set a routine," he asked, "Then what did they tell you when they saw you?"

"Not a single word!"

"Ah? Have you watched too many American movies?" Zhao You said.

Director Yan asked: "Then did you come up with something?"

Zhao Youdao: "Their rhetoric is quite consistent."

The two of them left the gate of the hospital. Some early food, flower and fruit vendors have set up small stalls, enthusiastically soliciting business from the past, but there are only a few pedestrians in a hurry, and some are riding battery cars. Many people passed by the hospital door expressionlessly, and did not want to stay.Cars are traveling on the motorway at a very fast speed.A black Passat was obviously at full speed after approaching the hospital.

Director Yan pointed to the "Hua Tsai Rice Noodles" across the street and said, "That's it."

The two were about to cross the road when they heard a whistle. Zhao You followed the sound and saw the black Passat parked ten meters away from them. He bent his waist and looked at Zhao You and Director Yan: "Xiao Zhao, Xiao Yan, what a coincidence, Xiao Zhao, are you okay? Where's your friend? Are you okay?"
