Reality and Games of Ancient Swords

Lin Sitian had already made all the mental preparations when she realized that she couldn't turn back.And at the moment when she was killed by the person she loved, she remembered the first time she saw Ji Yan.

She was very happy when she took over the case from Ji Yan, because it showed that she was entrusted with a heavy responsibility by her teacher.Ji Yan was not the first master that Lin Sitian brought her after graduation. After graduation, she was assigned to the headquarters compound because of her family relationship. At that time, she went directly to the infrastructure department and became a clerk of the infrastructure department first. , and the master who took her at that time was Zhu Ke who was about to retire.

Zhu Ke is 53 years old and will retire in two years.If Zhao Zheng hadn't stepped in, Lin Sitian could be said to be Zhu Ke's favorite student.He gave all his things to Lin Sitian.At this time, Lin Sitian didn't know that she was a psychic, let alone that there were so many supernatural events in this world.

Without that night on duty, Lin Sitian would never have stepped into the world that was always full of puzzles and magical things for her.

That night was New Year's Eve, most people in the bureau were on duty, and some were transferred to duty.This is the case every year, and when the holidays come, the police officers from the headquarters and subordinates will be dispatched to prepare for duty.Sometimes I will prepare for work in a centralized manner, and sometimes I will prepare for work in my own office or under my subordinates.

New Year's Eve is a lively day, and this night will definitely be concentrated in the headquarters compound to prepare for work.It was only after four o'clock in the afternoon, and people from various departments gathered in the large conference room on the third floor of Building 6 to prepare for work.Lin Sitian was on duty in her office at the time, and she still remembered that it was snowing that day, and the white snow soon dyed the ground outside into white.

Lin Sitian ran out of the warm office wearing snow boots and a pair of cashmere gloves, holding a hot water bottle.She was going to pour a jug of water at the boiling water tank downstairs.When she came downstairs, she felt the biting cold more and more.The snowflakes that hit her face were all on her clothes and face. The clothes were okay, just pat them on, but her face exposed to the air instantly turned red.

Crouching, Lin Sitian quickened her pace to the first floor, turned on the faucet and filled the thermos bottle, she quickly picked up the thermos bottle and wanted to go upstairs to the office.As soon as this person turned around, a black shadow flashed past his eyes. It was a black shadow that flashed by very quickly. If her eyesight was not good enough, she probably would have been ignored long ago.

Part of the reason why Lin Sitian became a policeman has something to do with her curiosity. She has a strong curiosity and has an attitude of wanting to know many things in this world.Lin Sitian was very disappointed when she found out that she was assigned to the infrastructure department. Her ideal wish was to be assigned to the criminal police team.

Rather than going to the infrastructure department to be a stable clerk, she would rather go to the criminal police team to deal with cases.

Putting the hot water bottle on the boiling water tank, Lin Sitian didn't even think about it, and ran in the direction where the shadow disappeared.Along the way, there was no one around, and it was not yet the time for security patrols, so the compound was quiet and there was no sound at all.Following the shadow all the way to the old building, she saw a scene not far from the old building that she would never forget in her life.

A beautiful young woman with a big brush in her hand is dealing with a ghost that only appears in novels or fantasy TV dramas.Yes, it was a ghost, without substance, just a shadow.Lin Sitian heard that the woman who dealt with ghosts called it ghost shadow, and that ghost shadow was quickly beaten back steadily. At this moment, ghost shadow found her, that distorted shadow, emitting an unpleasant evil smell. The stench rushed towards her, Lin Sitian was really terrified at that time, but even so, she still opened her eyes wide, accepting the ghost that rushed towards her.

Just as the ghost rushed over, a magical moment appeared, a barrier suddenly appeared in front of her, and the translucent barrier blocked the rushing ghost.Lin Sitian poked her barrier with her hand, like a blown bubble, very fragile but still protecting her.

It was also at that moment that Zhao Zheng, who was standing in front of the office window on the third floor and witnessing everything below, discovered Lin Sitian.

If Lin Sitian didn't have such great curiosity.

Suppose, the ghost did not appear that night.

Suppose, Lin Sitian was not on duty that day.

Perhaps, it will not become the situation it is today.

Ji Yan didn't regret getting to know Lin Sitian, but she regretted letting her participate in this leftover case, and even more regret letting her take over the case instead.

Zhao Zheng said that Lin Sitian was found in Sanhe Road, and Ji Yan knew exactly what that meant.

From Lin Sitian's disappearance to today, a total of one month, eight days and six hours, 15 minutes and 32 seconds have passed.If she had stopped Lin Sitian when she realized that something was wrong, wouldn't she have died?Or, when she went to see Lin Sitian that night, she knocked her out and brought her back to the bureau, so there would be no unacceptable news today?

With a cigarette between her two fingers, Ji Yan only smokes one when the pressure cannot be relieved. She is not addicted to cigarettes, but she thinks it is good to have a cigarette once in a while.

Winding smoke spewed out from the mouth, Ji Yan stepped on a protruding stone slab with one foot, and firmly stepped on the ground with the other foot.Her hands rested on the railing, and her beautiful hazel eyes stared straight into the distance.

Ji Yan still hasn't forgotten the light in Lin Sitian's eyes when she decided to let Lin Sitian take over the leftover cases.

She is a novice. Although she has been in contact with many cases about that side with their seniors, and has checked the cases handled by the specialist team over the years from the materials they put in the archives, she is just a person who has never really gotten involved. A novice, a young boy who has never even dealt with ghosts once.

Lin Sitian is really a girl who is curious about everything.

No matter what Ji Yan said to her, she could ask many reasons why.Ji Yan doesn't dislike people who have so many reasons. Facing Lin Sitian and her students, she has enough patience to answer her questions.

Licking her dry lips, Ji Yan looked into the distance and said softly: "I taught her so many things, but in the end I made her take a wrong path that she couldn't get back. Am I a teacher, a master, right? What a failure?" Ji Yan always felt that she was not a good teacher because she did not have the talent to teach others, and Lin Sitian just proved this.

"No, Miss Danpan has not failed at all." It was the prince Changqin who came up to answer her words.

Putting out the cigarette and throwing the cigarette butt on the ground casually, Ji Yan smiled self-deprecatingly and said, "You are really a gentle person."

Prince Changqin walked into the rooftop, came to Ji Yan, looked into the distance like her, and said: "I heard something about you and Miss Lin from my husband. I don't think you can blame this matter, nor can I blame Miss Lin. Girl, no one wants this to happen."

Ji Yan closed her eyes and said with a tired expression, "Do you know what I was thinking when I saw Si Tian for the first time?"

Prince Changqin looked at her.

"I'm wondering which department girl is this? She's so courageous, she dared to run to the old building, and she didn't run away when she saw the ghost, standing there, so stupid... If it wasn't for her sudden burst of ability, she would have been killed The ghost image was torn..." When it came to the scene of meeting Lin Sitian for the first time, Ji Yan couldn't laugh or cry, she took a deep breath, and the corners of her eyes glistened with tears.

"Sitian learns things very quickly. She can learn everything I teach her immediately. She doesn't need to worry about it. I taught her so many things. I taught her how to identify ghosts and ghosts. I taught her how to deal with them. I taught her...then There are so many...but she never taught her how to tell whether other people's hearts are true or false."

"After all, she is too innocent. How can a person who has caused so many bloody cases treat her kindly?" Taking a deep breath, Ji Yan continued: "I should have taken her to the police and surrendered herself. Better than she is now a cold corpse."

Prince Changqin felt Ji Yan's self-blame, he wanted to raise his hand to touch her head, to give her comfort, but just as soon as he raised his hand, he put it down again.

he can not.

"If Miss Dandan is worried about it, go and have a look." He wanted to use actions to comfort the woman around him, but in the end it was only words of consolation.

Ji Yan shook her head and said, "Sitian wouldn't want me to see her like this, nor would she want her parents to see her like this." That corpse must be the same as the one with only skin left All the same, nothing but human skin, scalp and hair.

"But if you don't go, I don't know if she really doesn't want to." Prince Changqin said softly, "Perhaps, she just wants you to see her for the last time in the past, even if her body is incomplete."

Ji Yan's hands leaning against the railing trembled, and the hair on his forehead was blown to pieces by the wind. Ji Yan sniffed, but the tears in the corners of his eyes had long since disappeared, as if what Prince Changqin saw just now was just a hallucination.

She looked sideways at Prince Changqin, looked at him seriously, and said, "Thank you, Mr. Changqin." As she spoke, she put down the foot that was on a protruding stone slab, then turned around and walked around Prince Changqin Go to the door of the roof.When she stepped out of the door, she looked back at Prince Changqin who was still standing at the railing, and said, "Come with me...together?"

"...good," he said.

The two came to the third floor, and when they saw no one in the big office, they knew that Zhao Zheng must be downstairs.Going downstairs, I saw Zhao Zheng and his car waiting outside the building.

Zhao Zheng seemed to have expected it, and said, "Let's go."

Ji Yan nodded, and got into the car with Prince Changqin, and the three of them soon arrived at the criminal police team.

At this time, Lin Sitian's body had been transported to the criminal police team's autopsy room.

They followed Zhao Zheng to the anatomy room on the fourth floor of the criminal department, and they smelled an indescribable smell coming from inside.

The stench and the smell of disinfectant water.

Zhao Zheng took out a handkerchief from his pocket and covered his nose.

Ji Yan and Prince Changqin just frowned and didn't cover their noses with their hands or anything.

The three of them didn't push the door open immediately, but waited at the door for the forensic doctor Liu Shengyi to come out.

Liu Shengyi is the mainstay of the forensic department. He is 42 years old, married, and has a ten-year-old son.He has an honest face, with a pair of gold-rimmed glasses on the bridge of his nose, looking extremely refined.

Liu Shengyi came out soon, and Zhao Zheng had already informed him before he came, so he was not surprised when he saw Zhao Zheng, Ji Yan and Prince Changqin.

Because Prince Changqin is a new face, Liu Shengyi took off his mask and gloves, stretched out his hand to Prince Changqin, and said, "Liu Shengyi, the forensic doctor of the forensic department."

Although Prince Changqin couldn't understand the handshake ceremony, he still followed Liu Shengyi's example and held the other party's hand in a decent manner.

"Changqin."

After shaking hands, Liu Shengyi nodded to Prince Changqin, then turned to Zhao Zheng, and said with a heavy expression, "It's Xiaolin, but unlike the previous victims who left the skin case, her body is complete, except for the skin on the back. .”

Zhao Zheng frowned and said, "What do you mean?"

Liu Shengyi sighed, "Come in and have a look."

Although it was not the first time for Liu Shengyi to encounter such a case where his own person dissected his own person, it was still quite painful.
