As Liang Yuanque spoke, he suddenly coughed violently.
He coughed so hard that his lean shoulders and chest shook with the frequency of coughing. He bent down and covered his mouth, as if he was about to cough up blood at the next moment.
Inspector Fu was startled. Could it be that he caught the cold from the rain?
It's not a problem just like this in the corridor. Even if it rains less outside, there is still a cold wind.
He hurried over to help him, "Let's go back to the office first."
Liang Yuanque finally stopped coughing. His face was as pale as a ghost, but he didn't cough up any blood. "No, this kind of charcoal stove cannot be lit indoors."
Inspector Fu also noticed that this kind of small coal stove was issued by the police station to police officers for use when going out in the wild. It was the same as the police uniform. I don’t know who gave it to Liang Yuanque, or he might have asked for it himself. .
"Why are you so stubborn all of a sudden? Just put your clothes outside and you go in first."
Liang Yuanque shook him off, took out a lozenge box from the bag that was also warming by the fire, took out a candy and put it in his mouth, "I'm embarrassed to be naked in the same room with your sweetheart."
What? Detective Fu was stunned, "Lingling didn't go back?"
"Said he came back with lunch." Liang Yuanque let out a long breath, but his expression had not yet calmed down.
Upon hearing this, Detective Fu ignored him and ran to the office. Liang Yuanque called to him from behind, "Hey, don't forget to arrange for someone to go to Huang's house to check the underground cell and the body!"
Liang Yuanque stayed alone in the corridor for a while, rehearsing in his mind what the girls had experienced in the underground cells.
The Huang family should regularly tie some girls into cells and lock them in them.
There can be no more than three people in a group at most. They are locked up and cannot have contact with the outside world. They cannot go out to relieve themselves, and no one will feed them.
They will be isolated from the outside world for about five days. Those who are still alive will be sent away, and those who starve to death will be dragged out and buried.
The reason why Liang Yuanque turned this into a ritual was because he had learned before that certain techniques of harvesting yin and replenishing yang would "purify" girls before they were officially implemented.
This purification is not the same thing as the "purification" of the father-in-law.
It refers to the fact that the selected girl is locked up and isolated from the world for a period of time, during which time she is deprived of water and rice until the filth in her body is drained.
After being starved in the dark for so long, even if a person does not die, he will be in a trance. No matter where he is sent or what happens, he will lose the ability to move.
When Liang Yuanque first came into contact with this ritual, he had a guess. He first discovered that this person was trying to make the girl "clean", but he was just using this cruel method to restrict the victim's ability to move, allowing him to do whatever he wanted. .
After all, he is a detective, and he will analyze everything with a detective's thinking. This kind of mystical doctrine is actually dirty when analyzed by rational thinking.
Liang Yuanque touched his clothes and felt they were almost dry, so he took off his police uniform jacket and put it on, and helped put the jacket left by Detective Fu beside the stove.
In front of Inspector Fu's office, Inspector Chang was smoking and taking a walk at the door, obviously not wanting to face the tired and crooked man and woman inside.
"Where are Master Qian and the others?" Liang Yuanque asked.
When he came just now, they and Inspector Chang were still in the office. They couldn't just watch a live version of a love movie in there without blinking, right?
"I found someone to take them to the cafeteria to eat," Inspector Chang took a puff of cigarette, "That Young Master Qian has been acting very anxious. The Young Master Lou you brought has been telling me stories about his sister when she was a child. I'm about to cry, I just can't handle it anymore."
Liang Yuanque thought to himself, I said that when I came in, I noticed that Lou Yuxin's eyes were red. This man really loves his sister, but it's a pity that they have a pair of parents who can't understand.
Detective Chang was planning to take Liang Yuanque to the cafeteria to have something to eat. It was already lunch time. Even if he was anxious about the case, he had to eat.
Alas, Liang Yuanque also thought, now that the matter is over, let’s eat first.
Just as he was about to go, he saw Zhuang Youjie coming over with a wet look on his face and a food box in his hand. He was turning back to thank the young police officer who showed him the way.
Liang Yuanque grabbed him and asked, "What are you doing here?"
Zhuang Youjie picked up the food box and shook it, "I'll bring you lunch."
Liang Yuanque was helpless, "You'd better not run around alone during this period. We are all being targeted. What if something happens to you?"
"It's okay," Zhuang Youjie felt reassured, "I made an agreement with Teacher Zhao before I came here. If I don't go back before class in the afternoon, I'll ask him to call Inspector Fu's office for help."
Since he brought lunch, they didn't need to go to the police canteen. They opened the door of Inspector Fu's office and found a place to have lunch.
Inspector Fu and his Lingling were not as romantic as people outside the door imagined. They were having their own lunch in a normal way. Inspector Chang was outside for a while and the cold wind blew to create opportunities for them.
The lunch Zhuang Youjie bought was for Lou Yuxin and Qian Shaohua. Now that they went to the cafeteria, they invited Inspector Fu and Miss Lingling to come over and have a taste together.
Lingling was a little embarrassed, but Inspector Fu was very relaxed and pulled her over to sit down.
Lingling looked at Liang Yuanque, her expression was unnatural, and she greeted him very shyly, "Hello, Mr. Liang, I heard Lao Fu tell your story before."
Liang Yuanque was eating. Hearing this, he smiled sheepishly, "Hey, these, these are nothing."
Lingling was obviously very interested in Liang Yuanque. She blushed and said after careful consideration, "Mr. Liang, I am a novelist and I am very interested in you. Do you mind if I write a novel based on you?"
Liang Yuanque scratched his head, "Of course I don't mind, but..."
Lingling looked at him curiously, and the people around her also slowed down their chewing, expecting him to say something.
As a result, Liang Yuanque pretended to be naive and said with a smile, "But, Ms. Writer, can you write me a date in the novel? I have never dated a girl in reality, so let's have fun in the fantasy world. "
Lingling covered her mouth and laughed after hearing what he said. Everyone sitting around the table also laughed. Zhuang Youjie, who was sitting next to him, laughed and patted his shoulder.
"You should have told me earlier, I will introduce you to someone when I have time."
The atmosphere in the office, which was somewhat awkward, became relaxed due to Liang Yuanque's joke, while he smiled slightly and continued to eat with his head down, hiding his merit and fame.
While I was having lunch, the phone in the office suddenly rang sharply. None of the calls I received recently had any good news. The ringing tone of the phone again made my heart beat fast.
Inspector Fu put down his chopsticks and went to answer the phone. After he answered the call, he hummed twice and said to Zhuang Youjie, "There is a person who says he is Teacher Zhao looking for you."
Um? Zhuang Youjie was confused. He clearly said that he had not returned until class in the afternoon, so he asked Teacher Zhao to call.
He answered the phone in a daze, and after listening to a few words, he couldn't help but uttered a curse word.
Everyone's eyes were immediately attracted to him. He clutched the receiver and shouted to everyone, "It's broken, Teacher Tan and Su Qingling were kidnapped!"
