But the strange thing is that after listening to the words and hearing He Fei's series of stern questions, the director had not yet spoken. On the other side, Liu Jian, who had been silent earlier, spoke first instead of the director, and then spoke to He Fei. Explained: "Sir, I think you misunderstood the director. It's not that the police don't want to investigate, but..."
At this point, Liu Jian paused for a moment, and He Fei noticed that the other person's face was getting more and more ugly. When he was so ugly, the man turned his eyes and unconsciously looked at the director opposite.
When his subordinates looked at him like this, how could the director not understand what he meant? With the situation developing to such an extent, finally, under Liu Jian's long gaze, the director nodded slightly.
As expected, after receiving the leader's approval, the man did not hesitate. First he took a deep breath, and then revealed the truth in a tone of unwillingness mixed with indignation:
"The first thing I did when I arrived at the bureau at noon was to find the director and give a full report on what happened to us last night. As for why our director was unwilling to send police officers to investigate after receiving the report, the reason was not with him, but with him. …but from orders.”
"Order?"
Hearing this, He Fei leaned forward further, with a suspicious look on his face, and subconsciously repeated the word "command" in his mouth.
Liu Jian nodded as usual and continued: "Yes, early this morning, a special commissioner came from the province. With a document from the Provincial Public Security Department, he strictly prohibited the city police station from investigating No. 21 High School. Not only that, but also strictly prohibited anyone from the police station from entering. School, that is to say, the director had received the prohibition order in advance before I informed the director of what happened last night."
What! ! !
Wow.
It's like thunder hitting your head on a dry day, like rolling waves sweeping over your body.
He Fei was shocked when he received such an answer, and his body that was originally sitting on the sofa just stood up from his seat.
………
He Fei was shocked by the sudden news, and his reaction was beyond imagination.
Yes, as soon as Liu Jian said this, He Fei stood up from the sofa as if he had suffered a heavy blow. He looked carefully and saw a surprised look on the college student's face, which then changed rapidly, turning green and white for a while. , the expression can be said to be as wonderful as it is wonderful.
Some people may ask after seeing this, why? Why do young people react so strongly to the above news? Isn't it just that a special commissioner came from the province to give the order? Even if the order goes against common sense and logic, there's no reason to be so surprised, right?
No, that’s not right. Anyone who thinks so is actually wrong. As I said in the past, except for ordinary trivial matters, He Fei will analyze and pay attention to any important matter, even a small detail. There is no doubt that he is currently investigating , and has even been involved in a strange disease incident that must be found out no matter what. In this case, He Fei naturally has his own personal understanding of the news he just received from Liu Jian.
With his strong understanding ability, combined with his personal status, in fact, as soon as he heard Liu Jian's story, He Fei suddenly made a terrible guess in his mind.
First of all, it can be determined that He Fei’s focus is not on the weird orders issued by the Provincial Public Security Department, but on the special commissioner!
There is no doubt that He Fei is not an idiot. Even though he is just a college student and has never been in the officialdom before, he still knows that such a strange order cannot come from the Provincial Public Security Department, or any high-level judicial department. It's impossible to issue it. Since it's unlikely to be issued, let's just treat it as fake news for the time being. Once it's judged to be false information and a false order, the subsequent inferences will be more terrifying. For example, who forged the order? Another example is who is the special commissioner that the director is convinced of?
He Fei firmly believed that the director of the Police Investigation Bureau who had been in the official career for many years would not lack common sense. He also firmly believed that the director would not notice the weirdness of such a strange order. However, he believed firmly, but the results were often unexpected. What was the result? As a result, the director actually believed the order and had no doubts about the mysterious special commissioner! .
Why?
Is the director stupid or did he sleepwalk the whole time without waking up? .
No, not at all.
Based on various doubts, He Fei followed the doubts to analyze and speculate, and then followed the clues to think of a terrible answer that was both unexpected and shocking:
In other words, the so-called special commissioner is very likely to be similar to himself.
To put it simply, it can be understood that this special commissioner of the Public Security Department who came to the police station early in the morning and privately issued orders to the director... was most likely an executor like himself!
It is worth mentioning that this argument does not mean that He Fei is smarter than the director or captain Liu, nor does the other two think of it. Just kidding, who can climb to the position of director of the police investigation bureau or captain of the criminal investigation team? Human essence? The reason why I believe it so easily is that it is very likely that the director has been influenced by his thinking, that is, the conscious interference caused by forged evidence from the cursed space. The reason is easy to explain. It stands to reason that under normal circumstances, when the director receives such a weird order, his first reaction must be suspicion. They even call the Provincial Public Security Department to confirm the authenticity, but the problem lies precisely in this. Because false evidence can affect thinking and judgment to a certain extent, the director subconsciously believes the other party after receiving the order and then does not believe the false order. In the end, the director was obviously surprised by the order but always believed that it was issued by the Provincial Public Security Department.
Since it was given by a superior unit, how could subordinate units dare to disobey the order?
As you can imagine, after receiving the order, the director was afraid, so he stood still despite knowing that 21 High School was extremely suspicious, and never sent anyone to the school.
Can a mere fake ID have such an effect? .
The answer is yes, He Fei is the best proof, and the reason why he is in the police station at this moment is also due to his fictitious identity as an investigator made up of false evidence.
Yes, thinking of the fake certificate, He Fei instantly revealed the true identity of the so-called special commissioner. After all, only fake certificates produced by the curse can interfere with human thinking, and those with such certificates can only be executors!
(Executor, I didn’t expect that besides me, there was another executor nearby!)
(Is it Chen Xiaoyao? Impossible. Not to mention that the other party is currently far away in Tai'an. Just because the incident has lasted for a long time, it cannot be Chen Xiaoyao's doing. What's more, the other party is definitely not that kind of person.)
(Huh? Difficult, can you say...).
"Gudu."
Somehow, after roughly understanding this, He Fei couldn't help swallowing, and then he shuddered unconsciously. Seeing the investigator's strange reaction, the director and Liu Jian couldn't help but look at each other, hesitated for a moment, and finally , the director brought He Fei back to reality with a question:
"Everything Liu Jian said is true, and I did not stand still because of orders from my superiors. This is also the main reason why I specially invited Investigator He to come here to meet. The reason comes from questions. There is a question that has been bothering me. That is...since the province has sent you, the investigator, to assist the police station in investigating the case, then why did the special commissioner sent by the Provincial Public Security Department tell me not to interfere with the 21 High School matter? I am deeply puzzled by the inconsistency in this case, and I hope the investigators can clarify it."
………
As the saying goes, the first level of officialdom kills people, not to mention that this is a direct superior-subordinate relationship between departments with a wider gap. Because of this, the final result is that the municipal police chief does not dare to disobey the orders of the Provincial Public Security Department. Orders, of course, are not absolute. If the director could be twenty years younger, then he might have the courage to disobey the orders of his superiors with a burst of momentum, and then forcibly send people to continue the investigation. But unfortunately, time is not forgiving, and time is also The director's momentum has been dampened. Now the director is 50 years old, and there are only a few years left before retirement. In order to survive until retirement, he does not dare to offend his superiors. This is the saying that the more daring an official is, the less likely he will be. , especially for a police chief who has been in the officialdom for decades, he understands the cruelty and darkness of the officialdom better than anyone else. It is true that he was extremely unwilling and dissatisfied when he received the order, but it is a pity that people under the roof had to Bowing, he was old. Even though he had never lost the sense of responsibility and justice that a police officer should have, for the sake of safety, he still did not have the courage to disobey orders, and finally carried out the orders brought by the special commissioner. Order.
For the above reasons, even if the director did not say that He Fei, who is very good at empathy, can still guess the reason. Even if it is so, the real cause of He Fei's current embarrassing and even dilemma is not the director's problem, but the youth himself. Yes, according to ordinary people's thinking, when He Fei analyzed that the identity of the special commissioner was fake, in order to get as much help from the police as possible, the most important thing he should do was to immediately reveal the matter to the chief and expose the scam. Only in this way will the police continue to investigate the 21 High School incident. ,However……
Unfortunately, He Fei cannot say that he dares and cannot reveal the fake identity of the fake special commissioner in any case. The reason is very simple, because He Fei's own identity as an investigator is also fake. Yes, once He informed the director of his personal analysis. Even if the other party finally believed him and continued the investigation, the other party would inevitably doubt him unconsciously and would most likely be arrested. Once He Fei was arrested and lost his freedom, who would save his sister? ? Do you expect these policemen to investigate? He Fei was not naive enough to think that the police would believe the words of a liar they considered a liar.
After prevaricating the director on the grounds that the investigators and special commissioners belonged to different provincial agencies, He Fei said goodbye and left.
The young man left the police station.
In the face of the unchangeable and cruel reality, He Fei was forced to give up and gave up his plan to rely on the power of the police because he knew that the police department was now completely unable to help.
………
Time passed one after another, the breeze gradually increased, and as time passed by, the sun gradually shifted to the west, and the golden sunset shadowed the earth, adding a strange color to this ordinary city.
Evening, 16:55.
He Fei has been in a state of confusion since he left the police station. He walked aimlessly in the city with his head lowered for a long time. Finally, he came to a park, and then sat on a chair in silence. , if you observe carefully, you will find that the young man's face is vaguely disappointed, but for some reason, after a moment, this expression disappears without a trace, replaced by solemn and tense, and then, anger rises, and a wave of anger rises. Unspeakable resentment unknowingly covered his mind and enveloped his brain, causing He Fei to burst into a surge of overwhelming anger!
If someone takes a closer look, they will find...
At this moment, He Fei not only clenched his fists, but even his face was full of ferociousness!
He Fei was angry. The reason for his anger was very simple. Through the conversation with the director, he now knew that the entire incident was caused by another executioner. Let alone the rape, murder and disappearance cases that had occurred one after another in recent days. , at least He Fei has connected the campus incident where his sister was infected with the strange albino disease with the executor. Not only are they connected together, He Fei further speculated that the executor is also very likely to be other team members of Cursed Space. , not to mention that it is impossible for the executors on one's side to do such a crazy thing, not to mention that the people in one's own team cannot cure that kind of strange albino disease. In this case, the answer is obvious, that is, the sister is currently harmed to death. The culprit is 100% the executor of the other team!
"What a shame! I don't care who you are, I will never let you go!!!"
Sure enough, after thinking that this incident turned out to be a malicious man-made incident, He Fei became even more angry as soon as his thoughts became clear and the target appeared. The uncontrollable anger roared out from the young man's gnashing teeth, because it was too sudden. , this voice can be said to have startled nearby passers-by on the spot. Within a moment, many eyes were looking at the young man as if they were looking at a lunatic. It is true that it feels bad to be watched, but for the extremely angry He Fei, he no longer cares about others. He was still looking at himself, gritting his teeth, and finally, prompted by a certain thought, he got up and left his seat and walked towards the park gate.
Jingle Bell!
Unexpectedly, just after taking a few steps, the phone rang at this moment.
Um?
Ben Ben took out his phone and looked at the screen. He Fei was a little surprised when he saw the caller clearly.
Liu Jian?
Hesitating again and again, with all kinds of suspicions in his mind, He Fei answered the phone, and a voice came out immediately, or as soon as the call was connected, Liu Jian's obviously slightly ashamed voice came directly into his ears:
"Brother He, first of all I want to apologize to you on behalf of the director. It's not that he doesn't want to continue the investigation, but that he can't disobey the strict orders of his superiors. After all, the director is old and about to retire. Before retirement, he really didn't dare to do something that would obviously offend someone. It’s a matter for superiors, but..."
Listening to what the other party said, He Fei originally thought that the other party was just defending the narration and shirk responsibility for the leader. However, strangely, as he spoke, Liu Jian changed the subject, and his tone instantly turned serious. Finally, he said with an unquestionable He said a sentence in a firm tone, a sentence that was enough to shock the young man:
"But, I am different, I, Liu Jian, am different! I do not believe that there is no justice in this world, let alone that there is no justice in the world. I can deeply understand the fear of those who were killed for no reason before they died, and I can even more understand the fear of those who are sick. The pain and despair of teachers and students. Although the duty of a police officer is to obey orders, if a police officer cannot even guarantee the safety of people's lives and allows criminals to kill innocent people unscrupulously, then this is not a qualified police officer, so... The director chose to obey the orders of his superiors, but I personally chose to disobey the orders. From now on, I will obey your orders, Brother He, and continue the investigation with you until the whole case comes to light!"
After hearing this, He Fei was silent, a long and speechless silence.
In addition to silence, what was more, was an extremely rare shock.
Even though Liu Jian's words didn't last long, He Fei was shocked and stunned when he heard it. Yes, at this moment, the young man was stunned. He never expected that there would be so many things in today's society. As a law enforcement officer who puts the safety of people's lives above promotion and wealth, through Liu Jian, He Fei gained more knowledge. In addition to gaining a new understanding of today's society, he also gained a little more admiration deep in his heart!
Admire, truly admire the other party. There is no reason why He Fei should not admire him. The reason is too simple. Before explaining, you must first understand why He Fei investigated the case? The answer is self-evident. It is precisely to save his sister and save He Meng, and it is precisely because the other party is He Fei's extremely important relative that he will risk everything to investigate. To put it bluntly, it is selfishness. Because he does not want to lose his sister, the college student just The original starting point of being willing to work so hard was just to save one person. As for other sick teachers and students, He Fei really didn't give much thought at first.
Human nature is complex and selfish at the same time. It is often difficult to explain. Strictly speaking, He Fei's behavior is neither right nor wrong until he meets Liu Jian and hears it from the other party. The above remarks are a powerful statement full of police investigation responsibilities.
It seems that even if society has become rotten and even filled with money and power, in fact there are still some hidden corners of humanity that shine. .
Unfortunately……
(It's a pity that you can't help me alone. The other party is an extraordinary person after all. He is an executor, and he is a terrible enemy who can be judged to be very ruthless just by his acting style. Facing such an enemy, except for being also an executor Except for yourself, ordinary people can't help, even if the other party is a police investigator.)
"call!"
Thinking of this, He Fei gave up his silence, took a deep breath, and immediately refused: "No, Captain Liu, I appreciate your kindness, and I can also tell you directly that the case is very complicated, far worse than imagined. It’s that simple. You must also know about the 21 High School incident. That school is extremely dangerous, and there may even be dangers more terrifying than the Skinned Man. I don’t want you to take the risk with me, so..."
"No, no matter what you say, I will continue to investigate with you and continue to investigate 21 High School. Even if you refuse, I will still go alone!"
On the phone, Liu Jian spoke with such force that he could not refuse. Faced with such a result, He Fei finally understood that the other party was too determined to be dissuaded by others. It seemed that the other party was as determined as he was. I know that even if I continue to dissuade, it will not have the slightest effect.
As mentioned above, after confirming that Liu Jian had made up his mind, he glanced at the surrounding environment. He Fei hesitated to speak and remained silent for a long time. The young man asked in a tentative tone: "Captain Liu, are you sure?" Do you want to accompany me to 21 High School tonight?"
"Sure."
After hearing this, He Fei no longer had any doubts, and nodded directly in a solemn tone and replied: "Okay, that's the case, then I will arrange the rest. As for when to go..."
"Let's make it tonight. You and I will meet at the gate of No. 21 High School at 18:00 today."
"Huh? Tonight? Why choose night?"
As expected, as soon as He Fei finished speaking, Liu Jian's confused voice came over the phone. Yes, although he was indeed determined to follow He Fei in defiance of orders, he even planned to rush to 21 High School together. Risky investigation, but the problem is that the time period set by the other party is really difficult for him to understand. After all, it stands to reason that even if you are eager to investigate the case, you don't have to go at night, right? It is far easier to move around in the dark than during the day. The principle is simple and easy to understand, but unexpectedly...
Listening to the other party's inquiry, He Fei just smiled bitterly.
The bitter smile was full of helplessness, and the helplessness was full of emotion. Yes, He Feizhi's choice to go tonight was really helpless. He personally still had time, but He Meng's time was running out. Currently, the white area was already It reaches the knees. According to the current speed, it will inevitably spread all over the body within two days. Thinking of such a result, He Fei is extremely anxious. He must race against time, even if it is night, he must go there, so as to get rid of the mysterious executor as soon as possible. After obtaining the antidote, the young man also had a vague feeling that perhaps this trip to 21 High School was his last chance to save his sister. In any case, he could not wait until tomorrow! .
Of course, it was impossible for him to tell the other party the above reasons. With a wry smile, he could only use the excuse that he found the suspect hiding in the school. As expected, when he heard that the criminal was most likely hiding in 21 High School, Liu Jian felt alarmed. The reason was simple. Since the suspect is most likely hiding in the school, to prevent the suspect from escaping early, arresting him at night is undoubtedly the best plan.
"I understand, then we will gather at the time set by Brother He."
………
The scene shifts to the police chief's office.
Looking at Liu Jian opposite who had just hung up the phone, the director looked complicated and silent, his old face was occupied by tangles. He seemed to be talking, but after hesitating for a long time, he finally said nothing and sighed at the end. Then he raised his head and stared at the other person while saying to him: "Xiao Liu, I'm sorry, you know the situation. I can't send anyone to help you, so..."
Before the director finished speaking, Liu Jian turned around and replied directly: "Director, you don't have to say anything anymore. I understand your difficulties, and I also understand that you really want to disobey that order, otherwise you wouldn't allow it." I act privately, and based on this alone, I, Liu Jian, still admire you, you are a good director."
"Hey, as long as you understand, I won't stop you. I will only say one word to you now..."
"Proceed with caution and be careful with everything!"
