soldiers in front

In the early hours of the morning, the corridors of the inpatient building of the hospital are more smokey than the streets. The beds in the corridors occupy nearly half of the area. The breakfast mixed together exudes the aroma of greasy and thick starch.

Xia Bingyang led several plainclothes criminal policemen through the congested corridor to a ward at the end amidst the smoke and fire.Sitting outside the ward were two criminal police officers who had been guarding the room since last night, they belonged to Dang Hao.

Seeing Xia Bingyang leading the people, the two criminal police stood up from their chairs and called out, "Captain Xia."

Xia Bingyang said: "Go back and rest, Xiao Chen will change your posts."

After Dang Hao's people left, Xia Bingyang left two of his own people guarding outside the ward, then opened the door of the ward and walked in.This is a double ward, with a curtain between the two beds. The nurse is changing the infusion bottle for the first bed next to the door. Suddenly, the door of the ward is pushed open, and a rather imposing man strides in.

"Huh? Who are you looking for?"

Xiao Wang, who was following Xia Bingyang, showed his police officer ID: "Police, is this man awake?"

The nurse glanced at the No. [-] bed he was pointing to: "Not yet, the patient has not been anesthetized yet."

Xia Bingyang stood by the bed, looking at Jin Tao's sleeping face with his eyes closed.He had only seen Jin Tao's photo in the files. It was a gloomy face without the slightest expression and energy. Looking at that face, it made people feel disgusted for no reason.At this time, when he saw Jin Tao himself, he actually saw a bit of beauty from Jin Tao's pale face.Jin Tao is not ugly, at least not as ugly as the photo he took when he was in prison, and he even has a bit of a bookish look.

"...how long has he been asleep?"

Xia Bingyang looked down at Jin Tao's face and asked intently.

The nurse said, "It's been three or four hours. Hey, hey, what are you doing!"

A petite nurse couldn't stop Xia Bingyang. Xia Bingyang opened the curtain between the two beds, picked up a teacup from the small table where the patient in bed No. The remaining half cup of tea was poured all over Jin Tao's face.

The tea wetted the pillow, and Jin Tao's face was stained with gray-brown tea leaves. He coughed a few times, but did not open his eyes.

Xia Bingyang put down the teacup, and sneered: "Didn't you just wake up?"

He sat on the edge of the bed, put his hands on both sides of Jin Tao's pillow, bent down to look at Jin Tao and said, "Since you're awake, open your eyes and wait for me to kiss you? Sleeping Beauty."

Jin Tao slowly opened his eyelids, looking at Xia Bingyang's face with a pair of calm and indifferent glasses.

Xia Bingyang looked at his eyes, and found that Jin Tao opened his eyes with a little bit of vitality, which was a little more pleasing to the eye than before, and he was a pretty boy.

"Does the wound still hurt?"

Xia Bingyang asked.

Jin Tao didn't answer, just looked at him gloomyly.

Xia Bingyang didn't care about his indifference, and asked again: "How old are you this year, 27? You have a tender face, and you look like a student."

Jin Tao was silent.

Xia Bingyang and him looked at each other for a moment, his smile suddenly sank, looked at him and repeated: "I ask you, does the wound still hurt?"

Jin Tao: "...I shot you in the shoulder, try it."

Xia Bingyang raised his eyebrows, and said with a smile: "I didn't ask about your gunshot wound, what I asked about was—" He put his right hand on Jin Tao's chest, and slowly pressed his palm down through Jin Tao's hospital gown: "You knife wound."

Jin Tao's complexion changed, and his already bloodless face became a little paler. He gritted his teeth tightly so as not to groan.

Xia Bingyang didn't stop until the white hospital gown was covered with blood. He helped Jin Tao straighten the wrinkled hospital gown, and said, "Although we shot at you, we wanted to catch you alive. But this is for you." The person with the knife wants to kill you."

Jin Tao gritted his teeth and turned his head aside: "No one wants to kill me except you... ah!"

Xia Bingyang repeated his old trick, put his finger on his chest, drilled into his sutured wound with a little force, and said coldly: "You are such a bear, and you are still fucking confused."

Jin Tao looked at him resentfully: "I remember your voice, you are the policeman who was talking to me on the phone!"

Xia Bingyang sneered and said: "Yes, it's me. You should thank me. If I hadn't promised Yao Zichen to give you diamonds alone, how would she have the opportunity to approach you? If she didn't have the opportunity to approach you, how could she have the opportunity to stab you , if she didn't have a chance to stab you, how could you have a chance to see her true face?"

Jin Tao didn't dare to look into Xia Bingyang's eyes, because Xia Bingyang's eyes were so sharp that they could pierce his head, like a bayonet, he picked out all the facts and self-deceptions that he was unwilling to admit until now, so that he could see the light of day. He was ashamed.

So he closed his eyes, gritted his teeth, and sealed himself off.

Xia Bingyang said calmly, "Why are you pretending to be dead again? Don't you want to know if Shao Tong is still alive?"

Jin Tao suddenly opened his eyes and looked at him anxiously: "Tongtong! How is Tongtong?"

Xia Bingyang curled up her lips and said, "Dead."

Jin Tao's face froze like thunder.

Xia Bingyang watched his face, smiled and said: "Want to know how he died? The medicine you gave Shao Tong was given by Yao Zichen, right? Don't talk, that's it. Yao Zichen replaced the medicine in the medicine box with After taking Tylenol, the child would have a high fever within half an hour, convulsions all over his body, and finally died suddenly because of the rapid heart rate. Luckily, the psychotropic drugs he took allowed him to The drug produced antibodies, so he didn't die from a rapid heart rate, but he had a fever. When I found him, he was lying on the bed, his temperature hadn't dropped, but his breathing had stopped."

Jin Tao's face turned pale for a while, and he struggled to sit up: "I don't believe it, Tongtong, Tongtong will be fine—"

Xia Bingyang held his shoulders and pressed him on the bed, bent over and approached him: "Don't you understand? Yao Zichen just borrowed your hand to kill Shao Tong. Because once Shao Tong dies in your hands, you will Without a bargaining chip, do you want to know how our police treat a kidnapper who has no bargaining chip?"

Xia Bingyang raised his right hand and gestured for a gun. The muzzle of the gun rested between Jin Tao's eyebrows, and said: "The target appears, shoot it immediately."

Jin Tao looked at him in astonishment, his body being held down by Xia Bingyang felt chills.

Xia Bingyang looked at his dazed eyes and said with a smile: "Yao Zichen is very smart. He first borrowed your hand to kill Shao Tong, and then he borrowed the hand of our police to kill you. Hmm? Tell me, why did she want to kill Shao Tong?" Dead Shao Tong? Can’t think of the reason? I have a guess; maybe Yao Zichen killed Shao Tong to kill you. After all, we dare to take compulsory measures against you only when you have no bargaining chips in your hands. So, Shao Tong died for you."

He looked at Jin Tao and said the last sentence with a smile, with a paradoxical cruelty, "Then why did she get rid of you? Was it to silence her? Because you were the one who helped her get rid of Jiang Zhinan. Jiang Zhinan is dead. Naturally, it will be your turn next. Here comes the question again, why did she want to get rid of Jiang Zhinan, could it be—”

Xia Bingyang took a document from Xiao Wang and threw it at Jin Tao's face: "Is it because of this?"

With trembling fingers, Jin Tao picked up the document that was bound together by two sheets of paper. When he saw the end, his ashes-like eyes lit up with fire: "This, what's going on here?"

Xia Bingyang smiled and said: "Yes, what's going on here? Isn't Shao Tong the son of Yao Zichen and Shao Yunfeng? Why did he suddenly become the son of Yao Zichen and Jiang Zhinan? How did Yao Zichen explain Shao Tong's life experience to you? Could it be that she told You, Shaotong is your son? Hehe... No wonder you are willing to work so hard for their mother and son."

Jin Tao's eyes were reddened by the two fires, and he stared at Xia Bingyang viciously like an enemy: "This is fake, Tongtong is my child! He looks so much like me, he is my child!"

Xia Bingyang suddenly said harshly: "Shao Tong looks a bit like you, is your child? Su Qian also looks a bit like Yao Zichen, so is Su Xi really Yao Zichen?!"

Jin Tao froze, looking at Xia Bingyang in a daze.

Xia Bingyang suddenly felt a deep sense of powerlessness in his heart, and smiled wryly: "You are so surprised, it can only make me feel that our police are incompetent. After so many years, we have not even found out the identity of a woman. But we also have reasons for ourselves Excuse me, after all, the real Yao Zichen is dead, and Susie has also died in the judicial system. Who would have thought that Susie would survive in place of Yao Zichen and become a fake... Say something, Jin Sir, I think you can understand my feelings, because you are as incompetent as us police, and you, like us, have been played by this woman for six years."

Jin Tao was stunned for a long time before saying, "I want to see her."

"Who?"

Jin Tao gritted his teeth: "Yao Zichen."

Xia Bingyang looked at him, noncommittal.

Jin Tao closed his eyes, choked with sobs and said, "Before I see her, I won't say anything."

Xia Bingyang remained silent.

Jin Tao lowered his head and begged Xia Bingyang, "Please, let me see her."

Ten minutes later, Jin Tao got into Xia Bingyang's car. He sat in the back seat with handcuffed hands, and a criminal policeman sat next to him.

Xia Bingyang took Jin Tao to the detention center because Yao Zichen was arrested in the early hours of last night on suspicion of murdering Jiang Zhinan.Dang Hao personally led a search of Yao Zichen's home, and in the depths of Yao Zichen's closet, he found clothes and shoes that were exactly the same as those of the woman in the video Deng Yujie secretly recorded. Besides, there was also a mobile phone, which still contained Yao Zichen's Exchange information with Deng Yujie and Yu Jiao.

Yao Zichen was arrested in the early hours of the morning and pleaded guilty twenty minutes after Dang Hao's interrogation began.

"I'm tired officer, I want to sleep."

She said this to Dang Hao with a quiet and sweet smile on her face.

Dang Hao said: "Sorry Ms. Yao, our interrogation is not over yet."

Yao Zichen smiled and said, "Let's end it then. I admit that I was the one who contacted Yu Jiao and Deng Yujie, and I was the one who killed Jiang Zhinan."

"You have a helper, who is he?"

"Don't you all know?"

"Who is he?"

"...Jin Tao."

"Why did Jin Tao help you kill Jiang Zhinan?"

Yao Zichen dragged his jaw and chuckled: "Maybe it's because he likes me just like Jiang Zhinan?"

When Yao Zichen frowned and smiled when he said the three words "like me", he seemed to think that these three words were very weird and funny.

"...Why did you kill Jiang Zhinan?"

"Because he pestered me."

Dang Hao still remembers Yao Zichen's expression when she confessed. She was sitting on the interrogation chair with her chin dragging, her long hair draped down to cover her face, her elegant temperament and delicate face were not compromised in the slightest.She pondered quietly for a while, and said: "Didn't you ask me whose child Shao Tong is? Let me tell you, I don't know who the father of the child is, because I was raped by drugs. I lied , I know who the father of the child is, Jiang Zhinan. But I also told you the truth, I was indeed drugged|raped by someone, and that person was Jiang Zhinan. Later... I became pregnant, and I wanted to abort , but the doctor said that my life would be in danger if I had an abortion, so I had no choice but to give birth to the child." She laughed softly: "I didn't expect to give birth to a disabled person. I don't want that child, he was left to me by Jiang Zhinan I thought I got rid of Jiang Zhinan, but I didn’t expect to be his neighbor again six years later. He... he recognized me and knew that Shao Tong was his son. He started pestering me, Forced me to be his mistress. I had no choice but to kill him."

Dang Hao asked: "Then why did you collude with Jin Tao to kidnap your son?"

Yao Zichen looked up at him, with a hint of disdain in his smile: "I said, I don't like that defective product, and I don't want to be anyone's mother, or anyone's mistress, or anyone's wife. I just want to be myself, but there are always some people who force me to be his mother, to be his wife, to be his mistress...You guys are disgusting, always trying to tie us up in the name of love Around me, Shao Yunfeng is like this, and so is Jin Tao. Although I got rid of Jiang Zhinan, I still haven’t got rid of Jin Tao. Jin Tao is no different from Jiang Zhinan in my eyes. Looking at their faces, I feel suffocated. And lying next to me every day My husband, I looked at him and felt extremely disgusted. Oh, and that defective product, I was fed up with him calling me mom with a demented face, why does he think that I have to pay for him when he calls me mom? I want to get rid of Jin Tao, Shao Yunfeng and that defective product, just like getting rid of Jiang Zhinan. Jin Tao is not important to me at all, but not having Jin Tao is very important to me. He helped me kill Jiang Zhinan. He has something in his hand, so He must die, or I cannot be free."

"If you kill Jin Tao, will you be free? You still have a husband."

"Hehe, I got my husband's diamond. Without your intervention, after Jin Tao's death, I would have taken the diamond and my freedom and flew away."

"So Shao Yunfeng didn't know that you and Jin Tao teamed up to kill Jiang Zhinan, and he didn't know that you and Jin Tao conspired to kidnap Shao Tong, did he?"

Yao Zichen raised his head, looked at Dang Hao's pure smile with almost no impurities, and said: "Yes, from the beginning to the end, my husband didn't know about it."

Xia Bingyang did not participate in the interrogation of Yao Zichen, and he did not see the complete transcript compiled by Dang Hao until after the interrogation.He read the transcript verbatim, and watched the video again. He was silent for a long time, and suddenly asked Dang Hao a question: "Why didn't she destroy the clothes and mobile phone? The evidence we found is almost like she sent it to the police station with her own hands." the same."

Dang Hao couldn't answer this question, and Xia Bingyang had no answer, so he went to the hospital to find Jin Tao.At Jin Tao's request, Jin Tao is now taken to the detention center.

He knew that there was a secret between Jin Tao and Yao Zichen, and only he, Jin Tao, and Yao Zichen knew about this secret. Among the secrets were Wu Zheng, Su Xi, and the real Yao Zichen.After Yao Zichen and Su Qian's identities were switched, all problems were solved. Jin Tao killed people just to cover Yao Zichen's true identity, and Wu Zheng, who was closest to Yao Zichen, would naturally become Jin Tao's ghost.He knew that Yao Zichen was not Yao Zichen now, but he had no evidence. He also knew that the person who killed Wu Zheng was Jin Tao, and the person who instigated Jin Tao to kill was also Yao Zichen today, but he also had no evidence.

On the way to the detention center, Xia Bingyang called Tang Ying and asked Tang Ying to meet at the detention center.The reason he brought Jin Tao to Yao Zichen this time was to let Jin Tao personally identify Yao Zichen's true identity and end Wu Zheng's case.He has no evidence in his hands, only Jin Tao, a potential witness.If his plan goes well, Jin Tao exposes Yao Zichen and Wu Zheng's case is solved.He suffers from the lack of direct physical evidence, and he may be made things difficult by a group of people from the legal affairs department. However, if Tang Ying is willing to help him bypass a series of complicated procedures, in the case of serious lack of physical evidence, he may be brought to justice in the Wu Zheng murder case. The real chance.

Xia Bingyang drove the car into the parking lot of the detention center. When he got out of the car, Tang Ying in uniform got out of the black sleeping car with the word "prosecutor" printed on it and walked towards him, accompanied by two prosecutors.

Xia Bingyang looked behind her and said, "Don't take anyone with you, follow me in."

Tang Ying asked: "What are you doing?"

Xia Bingyang did not explain, waved forward, and took the lead towards an office building leading to the narrow corridor.The prison guards took them to the interrogation room on the second floor. Xia Bingyang and Tang Ying sat behind the long table, and Jin Tao, who was wearing a hospital gown, sat on a chair beside him under the supervision of two prison guards.

Soon, the door was pushed open, and Yao Zichen, who was wearing a prison uniform and handcuffed, walked in.Xia Bingyang paused when he saw her enter the door, a wave flashed in his eyes as still as still water, then walked in without any abnormality, sat at the other end of the long table, facing him and Tang Ying.

Yao Zichen's eyes turned around on the faces of Xia Bingyang and Tang Ying, skipping over Jin Tao who was on the side, and said to Xia Bingyang with a smile: "Officer, I thought we would never have a chance to meet again."

Xia Bingyang said: "Why?"

"Because I have already explained everything that needs to be explained. If you come to me again, I have nothing to say."

Xia Bingyang pretended not to know: "Oh? What did you explain?"

Yao Zichen looked at Xia Bingyang gracefully and dignifiedly, and said with a smile, "You know, police officer."

In front of her, Xia Bingyang suddenly felt that his concentration was challenged, because she acted too calmly and too coldly. Facing a person who seemed to have no feelings, Xia Bingyang had a faint premonition that his hope was lost.

Xia Bingyang said: "You mean your motive for killing Jiang Zhinan, your son, and Jin Tao?"

The policeman in front of her was playing word games with her, and Yao Zichen noticed it, and said, "Don't say that, police officer. My son and Mr. Jin are still alive, aren't they?"

Jin Tao murmured: "Tongtong is not dead? Tongtong is still alive?"

Prison guard: "Sit down!"

Yao Zichen finally took a good look at Jin Tao, and when she looked back at Xia Bingyang, her expression had changed, her eyes became cold, and she said with a smile: "I think I know why you came to me, police officer."

It was only then that Xia Bingyang directly felt how smart the woman in front of her was. She was as smart as a ghost, and she accurately judged from Jin Tao's words that Jin Tao was almost "surrendered" by him.

Xia Bingyang smiled calmly: "Is life or death important to you? Don't you just let them die?"

"It doesn't matter to me now because I'm dying."

She looked at Jin Tao and said the second half of the sentence.

Jin Tao stared at her bewilderedly, and tried to get up from the chair again, but was pushed back on the chair by the prison guard.

Xia Bingyang looked at her with a gloomy face, and saw a poisonous snake-like heart under her beautiful face. Yes, she was going to die, but even if she was going to die, she still wanted to use Jin Tao, and she didn't want to do it for the real Yao Zichen and Wu Zheng is responsible.

Xia Bingyang sneered and said, "Actually, you're already dead, Miss Susie."

He stared at Yao Zichen's face, trying to see a trace of emotional fluctuations on her face, but he failed.Hearing this, Yao Zichen not only didn't panic, but raised her thin eyebrows with a disdainful expression, and said, "Are you calling me, police officer?"

Tang Ying couldn't understand, she also looked at Xia Bingyang.

Xia Bingyang sat up straight suddenly, leaning against the edge of the table tightly, staring at Yao Zichen with a pair of boundless black eyes: "Yes, I'm calling you, Miss Su Qian."

"You seem to have made a mistake, my name is Yao Zichen."

"It's just a name. You can say your name is Yao Zichen, but I think the name Susie is more suitable for you. Do you know why?"

The smile on the corner of Yao Zichen's mouth froze: "Sorry, I don't want to know—"

Xia Bingyang interrupted her as if she had never heard of it, and said with a smile: "Because the name Susie is very cheap, and the woman with this name is a prostitute. Do you know what a prostitute is? She uses her body in exchange for rewards." Woman. Susie is this kind of woman. She lives at the bottom of the society, in a dark corner. I don't have a legal identity. Does anyone care if a person like her is alive or dead? I don't care about her, because what I like is a woman with status and quality." As he spoke, he meant something She glanced at Tang Ying.

Yao Zichen also followed his gaze and looked at Tang Ying, jealousy towards Tang Ying suddenly appeared in his eyes.

Seeing the change in her eyes, Xia Bingyang said again: "But this Susie is lucky. She didn't live for a long time, and she soon had a chance to escape from hell. She met a woman who looked somewhat similar to her. This woman has education, family background, and status. Susie attached to her like a lonely soul without a body, took away her body, took away her name, and shamelessly replaced her. How can you expect Can a woman who has nothing, not even a soul, have a heart? No, but can a person who has neither a soul nor a heart still be called a human being? Neither can, therefore, Susie is not a human being, she is a monster, a parasite, she hides Showing a mask in the body of the host she stole, everyone thought she was Yao Zichen, and the ridiculous thing is that she also regarded herself as Yao Zichen. But she is not Yao Zichen, she is just a fake, a fake who doesn't even have her own name goods."

Yao Zichen looked at him with a gloomy expression, his handcuffed hands viciously stirred his fingers.

Xia Bingyang looked at her nearly broken finger, and said with a smile: "The person sitting in front of me is not Yao Zichen, because the handcuffs are not suitable for Yao Zichen, only monsters need to be chained, so you are not Yao Zichen, you are the one on the other side." The monster who died six years ago. How, monster, now you are finally shackled, and this is your destiny. No matter how many hosts you rob, you cannot change your destiny."

Xia Bingyang stared at her, raised the corners of her lips and said word by word: "Because you were born lowly and willing to degenerate."

There was a 'click'.

Yao Zichen broke the middle finger of her left hand, and she had to suffer severe pain to stay awake, otherwise she would not be able to resist crawling across the table like a wild beast, rushing to bite Xia Bingyang's throat.But she was in so much pain, from the inside out, that she almost passed out from the pain, so she shed a few tears.

She knew what Xia Bingyang wanted, Xia Bingyang wanted to provoke her, and wanted her to go crazy.

But she seemed to be wrong, when she was crying, she saw Xia Bingyang smiled, which was cunning and cruel.She couldn't help being startled, she understood, it turned out that Xia Bingyang was not provoking her, but Jin Tao...

"You, why do you say that—"

Jin Tao was trembling with anger. He stared at Xia Bingyang with fiery eyes, and slowly stood up from the chair: "Xiaoqian is not a monster, she is not lowly, no one is born low...you What do you say that!"

Prison guard: "Sit down!"

Yao Zichen gasped, Xia Bingyang's insults couldn't move her, but now she looked at Jin Tao in horror.

Xia Bingyang stood up suddenly and walked towards Jin Tao, with a sly smile on her lips: "Do you dare to say that Su Xi is not low? If she is not low, she will snatch Yao Zichen's identity?"

"She just wants to live, and wants to live in another way!"

"If she wants to live, does Yao Zichen have to die?!"

"So what if Yao Zichen is dead? As long as Xiaoqian is alive!"

"So you help her kill, help her kill Wu Zheng?"

Yao Zichen: "Jin Tao!"

Xia Bingyang turned her head and pointed at her: "Shut up!"

He grabbed Jin Tao by the collar and said harshly: "She is a monster, and you are her minion. She deserves to die, and you deserve more than her! Why would you trade Wu Zheng's life for hers!"

Jin Tao grabbed his collar with his backhand: "Xiaoqian is not a monster! She is not! Believe it or not, I will kill you!"

"How do you want to kill me? Like you guys killed Wu Zheng together?!"

"Wu Zheng died too easily, I want to stab you—"

Jin Tao has already gone crazy, he is about to admit that he and Su Qian killed Wu Zheng under the provocation of Xia Bingyang, but an accident ended his madness; Yao Zichen suddenly left his seat and bumped his head against the wall, blood stained the wall immediately , dyed her entire face red.Her suicide-like behavior ended Xia Bingyang's interrogation of Jin Tao.

Tang Ying and several prison guards rushed towards Yao Zichen, and Yao Zichen stood up with their support, staring at Jin Tao with wide eyes in the blood, like a stern female ghost.

"I'm going to die, and you know why I'm dying," she said.

Jin Tao looked at her in astonishment. Suddenly, he roared angrily, knelt on the ground as if his kneecap had been taken away, and shouted with all his strength: "I killed Wu Zheng! It has nothing to do with anyone! And Xiao, and It has nothing to do with Yao Zichen! It has nothing to do with Shao Yunfeng! I did it all by myself, and it has nothing to do with them!"

Xia Bingyang watched the hysterical scene of Jin Tao kneeling on the ground crying tears, he knew that he had completely lost in this desperate battle.

Suddenly, his ears became clear, and there was no one in front of him. He was drawn into the boundless white universe, with only the breeze around him.He looked forward, and as far as he could see, there was a beautiful Davidia involucrata tree, and under the tree stood the lonely and mournful back of a man.

That's not Wu Zheng, but Liang Xiaotong.
