Chapter 40 Shadows in the Sun


Chapter 40 Shadow in the Sun

The two people came to the classroom and saw many people gathered together, talking about something. Everyone's face showed uneasiness and nervousness, as if something had happened. event.

This made both Lu Yanhe and Li Pengfei a little surprised, wondering what was happening.

"What's wrong?" Li Pengfei immediately approached and asked.

What everyone is talking about is a piece of news that was circulated in various group chats last night: It is said that a body was found in a garbage dump last night and it was murdered.

Now is no longer the chaotic world where countless accidental deaths occur every day. In this peaceful era, the occasional corpse of an abnormal death is like a bomb, which will cause a huge splash of water in a large, calm pond. Come.

Just like this group of students now.

Murder.

This word is too far away from their lives, so when it happens in the city where they live, it feels too close to them.

“It seems to be a woman.” A classmate said in an uncertain voice.

But this sentence made the woman named He Ting appear in Lu Yanhe's mind for no reason.

Wearing a sun hat, thin figure.

Standing in the crowded bus compartment, she looked back at him through the crowd.

It was just evening, the car door had been opened, and her face was in the shadow of backlight, so Lu Yanhe didn't see her face clearly at all, and he didn't know what her expression was like at that time.

It can’t be her, right?

When this idea came out of Lu Yanhe's mind, it was accompanied by a creepy feeling.

Lu Yanhe quite likes watching crime movies, especially crime movies in which ordinary people are accidentally involved in a conspiracy or accident. They are not the kind of movies like "Mission: Impossible" or "Dirty Disk". It is not a story that lives in the world of ordinary people, but a story like "The Unknown" that takes place in a real world. Only when the background of the story takes place in a world that can be seen everywhere around you will you feel more immersed.

However, it was at this moment that Lu Yanhe realized that a movie is a movie after all. You know it is a movie. No matter how you feel immersed in it, you also know that it is just a story.

But the real world is not like this.

Lu Yanhe sat down and sent a message to Officer Qiu asking: Officer Qiu, my classmates talked about the murder of a woman here last night. Is it true?

Officer Qiu, who responded instantly yesterday, did not reply until the morning self-study started this morning.

It shouldn’t be that coincidental, right?

Lu Yanhe frowned slightly, suppressing the uneasiness surging like an earthworm deep in his heart, focusing himself and starting to listen to the lecture.

-

Old Town.

It was obviously raining heavily on the other side of No. 13 Middle School, but here it was sunny.

Same city, different weather.

There is a roadside breakfast shop with seven or eight tables set up along the street.

A man wearing a white vest with a ferocious tiger head carved on his right arm came over and sat down at a table next to him.

“Boss, let’s have a bowl of beef noodles and some xiaolongbao!” he shouted.

"Okay!" the boss responded.

After a while, the boss came over with a bowl of steaming beef noodles and a drawer of steamed buns.

He brought the noodles to the man, smiled and said, "Eat slowly."

Halfway through the meal, a woman wearing sunglasses appeared. She sat down at Luo Hu's table.

This scene did not arouse any surprise from the people around.

This part of the old city is home to both lazy people who love to eat and work and live in vain, and many elites in suits and leather shoes or with exquisite makeup. The former are remnants of this city, and the latter are immigrants to this city. If there is anything else that the two have in common, it is that they are not accommodated by the glamorous side of the city, so they can only live in this backward old city.

The lazy guys can eat slowly for an hour, but the elites must solve the problem within ten minutes and rush to work in the CBD area ten kilometers away. The old city is just their dreamland, and the CBD is theirs. dream.

But this elegant woman wearing sunglasses was not in a hurry.

After she sat down, she took off a pair of disposable chopsticks, chewed a small steamed bun slowly, and then asked in an inaudible voice: "You handle this person?"


"I brought it and I'll handle it." Luo Hu didn't even raise his eyebrows.

"Surveillance showed that she secretly took photos and recorded videos. Did she say who she gave the things to?" the woman asked.

“I said I wanted to call the police before, but I didn’t have time. After you reminded me, I kept staring at her, and she didn’t find a chance.”

“Just in case. "It's time to withdraw," the woman said, "You brought me here, and you said he was honest and reliable. I didn't expect that he was doing something secretly. He managed to get a stronghold here, and now he's here again." I have to give up.”

“Hibernate for a while and see which way the wind blows. It’s just a person’s death. As long as no one sees those photos and videos and no one discovers what we really did, I’ll give her up.” I’ve checked her phone. She’s a woman from a rural area and doesn’t know how to use a computer. There’s no problem. Don’t worry.”

"You said the person was from your hometown before, so we could rest assured. Wasn't there still something behind his back?" The woman frowned.

"Okay, I will solve the trouble I caused."

"The police have already found the woman's body."

"No matter how we check It's all suicide." Luo Hu said, "I didn't kill him."

"Who did you kill him? Are you crazy? How dare you find someone else to do this? "After the woman sat down, she became a little excited for the first time.

"Calm down, there is no one else to handle this matter." Luo Hu smiled slightly, "It's just suicide."

The woman was stunned.

"Since I dare to bring her here, I will naturally have a way to restrain her." After Luo Hu said this, he put down his chopsticks and said, "Let's avoid the limelight during this period and check the direction of the wind before contacting us. Let's go. ”

Luo Hu is gone.

He just told a lie. It's not that He Ting didn't find the opportunity. Before she died, she told him that she almost gave the thing to a policeman she had met before that night, but she discovered him, so the opportunity she finally found was gone.

Luo Hu sighed. Luo Hu felt irritated when he thought of He Ting kneeling on the ground begging him for mercy last night. Why, why can't we just clean the house honestly? He had to force him to use her daughter to threaten her to jump off the building.

But he had no intention of telling this woman all this.

She doesn’t need to know. She just needs to know that the crisis is over.

The woman continued to eat the xiaolongbao until the last one was finished, then she paid the bill and walked in the other direction.

This is the old city. The surveillance in this area has not been installed, so they can have a leisurely breakfast here and then leave slowly.
