Burning fire

Pushing open the window, the moist air hits his face.

The night here is really as cool as water, two mouthfuls of damp breath into the lungs, and even the throat and eyes are not thirsty.

Zhou Qizun poked his head out of the window and looked around a few times.

The night is empty and silent, nothing.

"Tsk." Zhou Qizun frowned and closed the window.

Could it be that it was just a big bird?That's too big.

Zhou Qizun hesitated for a moment, but in the end he didn't close the thick curtains, not even the thin gauze curtains.Zhou Qizun tapped the windowpane twice with his fingers "bang bang", he went back to the bed and lay down, turned sideways, facing out the window.

.

Outside the window, Zhang Jueming was in a strange posture.Like a large suction cup, he was hoisted horizontally and coiled on the top of Zhou Qizun's window.

With his back tightly pressed against the wall, Zhang Jueming grabbed the railing upstairs with one hand, tensed his whole body, and used his forearm as the axis, allowing his body to vacate half a circle in the air.Immediately afterwards, he kicked off the wall with his right foot, and swished to the top of the building.

"I was almost discovered by him again." On the roof, Zhang Jueming breathed a sigh of relief.

Zhou Qizun can't take care of himself at all.I didn't sleep well, so I didn't draw the curtains.When the sun came out in the morning, his window was facing east, so even if he was dazed, he would have to be woken up.

Thinking of Zhou Qizun's stubborn dark circles under his eyes, Zhang Jueming sighed softly.

"You two are obviously the same thing." Zhou Yi said.

"What?" Zhang Jueming was stunned for a moment, then looked down at his pocket, "What road?"

"......nothing."

Zhou Yi asked: "Are you still guarding the roof tonight? You won't sleep again..."

"Of course we have to guard it." Zhang Jueming said.

Zhou Yi didn't speak any more.She thought to herself: "Look, let's just say that you two are the same thing.

.

Liu Jian and Zhou Qizun did not make an appointment at the police station, they made an appointment directly at the entrance of the hospital.

It stands to reason that old friends will have a lot to say when they meet, not to mention that they were back-to-back friendships back then.

However, these two people were on the road, and when they saw each other, they only smiled at each other, and all the handshaking and hugging, greetings and greetings were omitted.

I haven't seen each other for eight or nine years, and they make it look like I haven't seen each other for eight or nine hours.

"Since she was rescued by us, she has been placed in this hospital." Liu Jian pointed to the hospital gate, straight to the point, and got straight to the point.

"Since I was rescued, I have been silent and ignored no one..." Liu Jian touched his chin. He stayed up late last night and worked overtime again, and now there are blue stubbles growing on his chin and cheeks.

"However, the situation has improved a lot in the past two days." Liu Jian turned to look at Zhou Qizun, "She doesn't like to eat, she has lost weight."

"I know. She must be thinner than the picture, I'm mentally prepared." Zhou Qizun said.

Liu Jian nodded. To Zhou Qizun, he was so speechless that he didn't even get a vaccination.

The two pushed open the door of the hospital, passed by the crowd, and passed the corridor.

The hospital should be the most polarized place in the world.Look at the hospital lobby and the entrances of the consulting rooms, people are coming and going, very crowded, crying and screaming.As long as there are windows and doors, the queues are mostly long.

But the operating room, ward, and intensive care unit upstairs are different.People here sometimes cry and make a lot of noise, but they are extremely listless and sickly, exhausted, and it is difficult to say a few more words.The corridor was quiet and empty, and no one stood in front of the door or window.

"She lives in 616, I have called her in advance, just go to the nurse's station and tell her." Liu Jian said.

At this time, Liu Jian's cell phone rang.He took it out and saw that it was the hospital's phone number.

"Hello, hello."

"Officer Liu!" The nurse's anxious voice came from the phone. Liu Jian was taken aback for a moment, turned his head, and met Kong Kong's eyes—isn't the nurse who called him in the nurse's station behind him!

Liu Jian put down the phone, raised his legs and ran over: "What's wrong?"

Seeing someone, the little nurse grabbed Liu Jian's arm: "Officer Liu, the girl from 616 is missing!"

Nurse: "She was still there when I checked the ward around four o'clock in the morning, but when I went to see her at nine o'clock, she was gone! We searched all over the hospital for her, but we couldn't find her! She wasn't even in surveillance! We couldn't find her! "

Zhou Qizun followed Liu Jian, just in time to hear what he said clearly.

Liu Jian's heart skipped a beat, before he had time to say anything to the little nurse, he quickly turned his head and called out, "Zhou Qizun!"

It was too late for him to call, Zhou Qizun had already rushed out.

"What's the matter!" Liu Jian had no choice but to follow Zhou Qizun.

Zhou Qizun completely ignored the rules of the hospital, he rushed all the way into 616, creating a gust of wind in the silent corridor.

He pushed open the door of 616.

A small ward, the room is very clean.The golden sunlight filled the ward, which made the temperature inside the room a little higher than outside.

Zhou Qizun walked to the bed, the bed was empty, but the folds on the white sheets and quilt showed that there was once someone here.

Zhou Qizun reached out and touched the bed sheet, but there was no residual temperature.He saw a few long withered yellow hairs beside the pillow.

Zhou Qizun brushed his hair up, his eye sockets were sore, and his eyes instantly turned red.

"She's a sick girl, she can't run too far, people will definitely find her." Liu Jian stood behind Zhou Qizun at some point, he stretched out his hand and pressed next Zhou Qizun's shoulder.

After a long time, Zhou Qizun exhaled: "Yes."

.

In an emergency, no one saw it.And Zhou Qizun might be a direct relative of the person involved, so Liu Jian took Zhou Qizun to the police station and made a simple record.

"Don't worry, we will do our best to find her. Once there is news, I will inform you as soon as possible." Liu Jian said.

"But it's a strange thing."

Until now, the breath in Zhou Qizun's chest is still hot.

It's been eight years, and it's the ninth year this year.He is flesh and blood, not steel.He didn't lose his temper with his face taut, but God knows, there was such a violent landslide and tsunami in his heart.

All the tossing and turning, all the psychological constructions that can't stand up, are all collapsing with a rumble.

Zhou Qizun slammed his back molars: "It's true that I didn't see her in the surveillance."

Zhou Qizun and Liu Jian also went to adjust the hospital's surveillance system. They watched it three times, and as long as they could be photographed, they did not miss any corners. ——It was really the same as what the little nurse said, the girl did not appear in the surveillance.

"Yes. According to the surveillance, the door of her ward has never been opened." Liu Jian also frowned, puzzled, "There can't be a secret passage in the ward, she lives on the sixth floor, and she can't go through the window... ...."

"Damn." Liu Jian couldn't figure it out, and couldn't help but swear, "Disappeared out of thin air? Evaporated from the world? Are there still ghosts?"

I have seen the murder case in the secret room, but I haven't seen the disappearance case in the secret room yet.It's illogical.

It was because it was too illogical that the fire in Zhou Qizun's chest was so stuffy.Liu Jian didn't know it, but Zhou Qizun knew it—he knew that there were illogical things in this world, things that ordinary people couldn't understand and counterbalance.

Even if he carried a mortar on his shoulders, Zhou Qizun didn't think he could knock something like Jiuying down from the sky.

Could this girl who might be Zhou Yi be given away by those evil spirits...Zhou Qizun has never been able to prove it, but he feels more and more that those messy and strange things are aimed at him.Will even Xiao Yi be implicated now?

Zhou Qizun has lived for more than 30 years, always discovering again and again that he is a complete waste.

"Are you okay?" Liu Jian gave Zhou Qizun a hand, "Your face is too ugly."

"It's okay." Zhou Qizun pressed his eyes with the heel of his palm, "It's okay."

Liu Jian was silent for a while, then suddenly raised his wrist and glanced at his watch.

"It's already afternoon, it's already past noon." Liu Jian looked at Zhou Qizun again, and asked tentatively, "Why don't you come with me to the cafeteria for a meal?"

Liu Jian: "The cafeteria in our bureau is quite delicious, let auntie open a small stove for us."

Zhou Qizun didn't say anything.

Liu Jian stopped asking, grabbed the man's arm and pulled it away: "I told my aunt that no sugar is added to the tomatoes and eggs."

——He still remembers the taste of his old teammates.

"..." Zhou Qizun was helpless, he kicked Liu Jian's calf, and followed him to the cafeteria.

.

Fifteen minutes later, Liu Jian rolled up his sleeves, holding a bowl of rice with tomatoes and eggs in one hand, and a bottle of soy milk in the other.

The sole prints kicked out by Zhou Qizun on his trouser legs didn't come off either, he put everything on the table boldly, and sat down opposite Zhou Qizun: "Is it better?"

"Well, it's not that exciting anymore." Zhou Qizun opened both bottles of soy milk.

"Let's eat. I was supposed to take you to a restaurant, but the situation has changed now. But I don't think we need to talk about those nonsense." Liu Jian smiled.

"Yeah." Zhou Qizun picked up the rice with chopsticks, and the scrambled eggs with tomatoes really didn't add sugar.

"What do you think about this?" Liu Jian asked with a gulp of soy milk.

Zhou Qizun looked at Liu Jian's face for a while, pondered a few times in his heart, and said, "Perhaps, there is someone who has a solution."

"Who?" Liu Jian asked quickly.

Liu Jian: "This is not a fucking normal thing."

"Almost." Zhou Qizun was vague and didn't explain much, he took out his mobile phone from his pocket.

"Do you want to find Zhang Jueming?" Zhou Qizun said thoughtfully.

He used the phone as a brick and swung it between his fingers twice.

"Tell me, who are you looking for?" Liu Jian asked again.

Zhou Qizun estimated Liu Jian's psychological endurance, and finally confirmed that there was no problem.

——Even if there is any unexpected situation, his teammates will not be scared out of good or evil.

"You'll know when someone arrives." Zhou Qizun said.

He lowered his head and tapped the phone a few times, calling out Zhang Jueming's phone number.

Zhou Qizun pursed his lips, and smacked the taste of sugar-free tomato scrambled eggs on the tip of his tongue.

He suddenly had a strange idea—the scrambled eggs with sugar-free tomatoes from the aunt at the police station were not as good as the takeaway that Zhang Jueming ordered that night.

Zhou Qizun was stunned for a moment, then snorted.

"...What's the matter? Are you mad?" Seeing Zhou Qizun's expression, Liu Jian's scalp felt a little numb.

Zhou Qizun waved his hands, telling him to be quiet, ready to make a phone call.

It's a pity that before he could make this call, a gust of "gale wind" suddenly blew over.

This really happened, Zhou Qizun and Liu Jian's tables were bumped and trembled, Liu Jian's soy milk bottle was turned over, the soy milk was scattered all over the floor, and one of Zhou Qizun's chopsticks was also knocked off.

Zhou Qizun: "..."

"Xiao Chu, are you playing Mei Chaofeng?" Liu Jian stared, lifted the soy milk bottle on the table, and almost choked to death on a mouthful of rice.

"This is my colleague, Xiao Chu." Liu Jian and Zhou Qizun said.

That "Gallery" Xiao Chu was gasping for breath, and slapped his palm on the table.

This is a young man in his twenties. He should have just put on the police uniform for a few years. It is the time when the blood is hot, but the young man is full of blood and immature.

No, it scorched the leg of the trousers of the senior.Liu Jian's left thigh was drenched in soy milk, making it fragrant and milky.

"Liu, Brother Liu." Xiao Chu patted the table again, turned his face to look at Zhou Qizun, and said out of breath, "This is Brother Zhou, right? Brother Liu, Zhan, comrade in arms. Hello, Brother Zhou. "

"Well, hello." Zhou Qizun nodded and put down the phone first.

"Why are you running like this?" Liu Jian grabbed the natto milk by his trouser leg.

Xiao Chu took a deep breath and said quickly, "We found that corpse!"

"Corpse?" Zhou Qizun asked subconsciously when he heard it, "What corpse?"

After asking, he came to his senses and quickly waved his hands: "I'm sorry, it's inconvenient. I'll avoid it. You guys talk first."

Zhou Qizun was about to stand up, but Xiao Chu was in a hurry, no matter how big or small, he actually pushed him back: "Sorry Brother Zhou, I'm too...too anxious. You don't need to avoid it."

"How to say?" Zhou Qizun frowned.

"When we rescued the girl who might be Zhou Yi, we also found a corpse on a nearby barren hill. The male corpse is preliminarily determined to have been dead for more than three years and aged between 25 and [-]." Liu Jian also Unable to understand, he turned to Xiao Chu and asked, "But what does this corpse have to do with your Brother Zhou?"

"It's related to both of you." Xiao Chu's breath was finally adjusted, he must have stayed up a lot of nights recently, his face was full of green vegetables, "That person..."

Xiao Chu sighed: "Then what, just... When you were in the special forces, did you have a teammate named Lei Dongyang?"

"Boom."

The soy milk bottle in Liu Jian's hand fell to the ground, and a milky white soy milk flower burst open. The flower bloomed for a moment, and then disappeared immediately.
