    The next day, before the alarm clock rang, He Shu was woken up by the bombing of the phone.

    "Get up and go."

    He Shu looked at the phone and wailed, "Brother, it's only 4:30 in the morning!"

    No wonder he felt like he hadn't slept for long when he just lay down.

    Guanghan: "There will be a bus at five o'clock."

    He Shu: "Let's take a taxi at seven o'clock."

    After all, went to sleep.

    Grandpa Kuang offered his trump card: "I won't go, I have to film in the afternoon, so I won't be able to catch up when I come back."

    He Shu:  …

    This is the reincarnation of the model worker!

    He sat up suddenly, hands in surrender.

    "I'll get up and take a shower immediately, you wait for me outside the hotel, ten minutes!"

    The distance between Xiashan and Immortal Monument is almost across the entire Crane City. The two have to take the shuttle bus back to the city center, then transfer to the subway to the nearest bus station to Xiashan, and finally take the bus to Xiashan Scenic Area. At the door, it takes about half an hour or more to walk to reach the spot in He Shumeng.

    After the two arrived in the city center, He Shu went to a familiar hardware store and asked the owner to open the door ahead of time. He bought two folding shovels, and brought some food along the way, because he would not be able to come back for a long time after going there.

    Going out early also has the advantage of going out early, at least there are basically no traffic jams on the road, and there is no need to crowd people.

    As the weather got colder, there were fewer people doing morning exercises at Xiashan's feet. He Shu and Guang Han took a map of the scenic spot and climbed up and down. They didn't take many detours and found near the foot of the mountain, which seemed to be the place in their dreams.

    The repeated occurrence of dreams made He Shu recognize the area with his eyes closed, but how to find the location accurately is a problem, which needs to be studied on the spot.

    He Shu now hopes that the woman will show up to show them the way, but since last night, no ghost has appeared, and the chain will fall when it should appear.

    Complaining frantically in his heart, He Shu resignedly took two shovels and a bag of food and stopped panting.

    Yes, the two engineering shovels, Grandpa Guang would not take one, for fear that he would be stained with his immortal spirit.

    He Shu had to ask others for help, so he had to accept his fate. He said in his heart that he must collect cable TV fees and knowledge science fees from Guang Guang when he went back.

    "It should be here." He Shu pointed to the earthwork road ahead.

    There are weeds all around, except this one, so the soil here must have been turned over and covered again.

    "No." Guang Han said, he looked around, his eyes fell on the slope not far ahead.

    "Where?" He Shu followed and asked curiously, "Why is it there? There is no sign that the grass nearby has been stepped on?"

    Guanghan: "You don't need to go through here, you can go around from below. After it rains, the rain pours down the slope, and you can wash away the footprints by the way."

    He Shu took a closer look, it was true.

    "Have you ever done some kind of murder, how can you be so skilled?"

    Guang Han was too lazy to pay attention to him.

    "It's here, there's something down there."

    After the two went downhill, Guang Han immediately pointed to the road ahead.

    It was bare, with only two or three yellowing weeds, which obviously did not match the dense surrounding.

    He Shu started digging.

    Guanghan seemed to plan to fold his arms and stand by the side the whole time, looking at the distant mountains, like an expert in Zen.

    He Shu's movements were slow and his posture was wrong. It took a long time for him to poke out a small hole. His back was sore and he worked for a while and rested for a while. Seeing that he was about to breathe out more and take in less, he couldn't help it.

    "If you don't help, you won't be able to go back this afternoon!"

    Only then did Guang Han open his eyes, and he slowly picked up the shovel and began to help.

    Poor He Shu hadn't exercised so vigorously in years. After half an hour, he was covered in mud and sweat, but he didn't dig anything.

    "Are we going to the wrong place? Why don't I wait for her to dream tonight and ask her, come again?"

    Guang Han said, "No,"

    He Shu: "Are you sure?"

    Guanghan: "I can feel it."

    When he said this, there was a profound mystery in his tone.

    Like those charlatans who set up fortune-telling stalls in the park and pretend to be sophisticated.

    Before He Shu could think about it, his engineering shovel touched something completely different from soil and stones, which seemed to silently tell him that Guanghan was right.

    He Shu thought, and bent over to push it away with his hands.

    "Someone is here." Guang Han suddenly said.

    He Shu was inexplicable: "Where, why didn't I see anyone?"

    Guang Han frowned slightly.

    No need for him to explain, He Shu saw a large group of people suddenly emerge from the grove they had just walked through!

    "do not move!"

    "Don't move!"

    "Raise your hands, drop your things, and squat down!"

    He Shuren was dumbfounded when he saw the person who came in uniform and the weapon in his hand.

    He decisively chose to put down the shovel in his hand and do as they said.

    He Shu even stopped Guang Han, who was trying to resist, and let the other party be handcuffed as honestly as himself.

    Then the two of them were escorted aside, and He Shu watched the police continue to dig where he had originally dug, and a body was dug up in a short time.

    To be precise, it was a female corpse, with a blurred face, but judging from the figure and the color of the clothes, it seemed that it was the mysterious woman who frequently appeared beside Qu Jie during this time and gave He Shu a dream.

    The eyes of those police officers suddenly changed.

    That expression is like going out and picking up gold, and catching a rabbit while guarding the plant.

    He Shu: ...

    Why is it such a coincidence?

    Could it be that the reason that woman sleeps every night is to frame them and put them in prison?

    What are you drawing? !

    The one surnamed Guang might not be able to make it back in the afternoon, so the five hundred yuan was a waste. He Shu thought happily in bitterness.

    ...

    Shi Congda has been troubled by this case for a long time, and finally made a breakthrough.

    When he received a clue and led people to search for the corpse, he also encountered He Shu and the others digging up the corpse.

    If they were murderers, why did they return to the murder site after committing the crime, for fear that others would not find out?

    If they weren't murderers, why did they appear there, and they happened to be digging up the suspected dead body?

    Interpol Shi Congda also thought it was a coincidence.

    Coincidentally, he almost subconsciously regarded these two as murderers.

    "Uncle policeman, if I say that we are plant lovers, we carry engineering shovels with us during our morning exercises, and dig some rare plants and plant them at home, would you believe me?"

    Through the one-way see-through glass, Shi Congda saw the thinner young man among the two say this to his colleague in charge of interrogation.

    He has a pure and innocent face, no matter how you look at it, he is an ordinary citizen who abides by the law.

    At the same time, the information of these two people has appeared on the table in front of Shi Congda.

    He Shu, male, 29 years old, graduated a few years ago, and opened a studio called Taixuan Pavilion with his classmates. Not long after, his classmate died unexpectedly, and he became an online car-hailing driver.

    As for the other, it was blank.

    There is no ID card, no household registration, and no facial data has been entered, which is equivalent to a black household.

    Shi Congda frowned.

    There seems to be no problem with He Shu's information, but it is precisely because there is no problem that it seems weird.

    Not to mention the one named Guanghan.

    "Team Shi!"

    A colleague hurried in and handed him another document.

    Shi Congda had one eye and ten lines, his complexion changed slightly.

    He didn't hesitate anymore, he pushed the door open and walked into the interrogation room, interrupting his colleagues' work.

    "He Shu, what is your relationship with Qu Jie?"

    "I'm her temporary driver."

    "We found your bank account. The day before Qu Jie hired you as a driver, a sum of 20,000 yuan was transferred to your bank account. The transferer was Qu Jie's studio. How do you explain it?"

    "Miss Qu came to Crane City a while ago. She went to the TV station to record a program. When she was going to the airport, the car broke down. I drove her there. We hit it off right away. She came to Crane City to film a movie these few days, so let me act as her." During the time in Crane City, the driver is responsible for picking her up and down between the hotel and the film crew, Ms. Qu is generous, and the 20,000 yuan is said to be a deposit in advance, in case I have no source of income during this time."

    "Qu Jie was injured and was hospitalized. You happened to go to Xiashan to dig up the corpse. Did Qu Jie let you go?"

    He Shu was keenly aware that something was wrong, and the other party seemed to want to dig deeper into Qu Jie through him.

    Is Qu Jie a murderer?

    With the conscience of heaven and earth, He Shu never thought that he could still be involved in this kind of thing.

    He realized that if he didn't save himself, he might not be able to wash himself if he jumped into the Yellow River.

    He Shu sat upright.

    "What do you call a police comrade?"

    Shi Congda: "My surname is Shi."

    He Shu: "Officer Shi, I don't know if you remember, CCTV has a legal program that once reported a case. When the police were investigating the case, they couldn't find the client until the client's sister dreamed that her brother told her. After he was killed and he was able to tell exactly where the body was buried, he went to the police and brought the police to find the body.”

    Shi Congda listened impatiently and mocked: "What does that have to do with you? You don't want to say that the victim entrusted you with dreams, right? You and the victim are also siblings?"

    He Shu shook his head: "I don't know the identity of the corpse, I just kept being entrusted with dreams, and I couldn't see what the woman looked like in my dreams. She repeatedly took me to the foot of Xiashan Mountain, as if she wanted to tell me something, I will dig it up today. If the body is found, the police will definitely be called.”

    Shi Congda didn't believe He Shu's nonsense at all, and his face suddenly turned cold.

    "He Shu, I advise you to confess and be lenient. With Qu Jie's reputation, it is impossible not to have a dedicated driver. Why did I find you when I was filming in Hecheng? If Qu Jie was injured in an accident during filming, you immediately ran to Xiashan. Digging the corpse, what is the secret relationship between you and Qu Jie?"

    Shi Congda held the interrogation chair with both hands, and lowered his head to look down at He Shu. His eyes were so oppressive that they almost turned into sharp knives to make He Shu inch away.

    If He Shu has a ghost in his heart, even if he is a little guilty, his flaws will be revealed immediately.

    Except for those stubborn old foxes, it is difficult for ordinary people to stand up under such pressure.

    But He Shu did not.

    He also raised his head to look at Shi Congda, his eyes were clear and calm, as if he had a clear conscience.

    "Officer Shi, you can take a lie detector test for me. I did find the corpse through a dream. If possible, I would like to ask, what is the identity of the corpse and the victim? She followed Qu. What does it have to do with Jie?"

    Shi Congda looked at him quietly for a moment: "Okay, let's not talk about the corpse first, what is the name of the man you are with, and what does it have to do with you?"

    He Shu: "He's my tenant, and this time I happened to be filming in the crew next door, so I called him to help."

    Shi Congda: "Then do you know that he doesn't even have a hukou or ID card?"

    He Shu pretended to be surprised: "No way. Could it be that he entered the country illegally?"

    This is obviously a lie, Shi Congda can see it at a glance, and he is more and more convinced that the nonsense in front of him is all nonsense.

    Shi Congda sneered: "Don't you want to know the identity of the deceased? Well, let me tell you, she is an undercover anti-narcotics police officer who disappeared some time ago. We have been looking for her until recently when we learned that she had died in the line of duty. The corpse was buried by criminals in Xiashan, which is where you excavated just now."

    The amount of information was too large, and He Shu was smashed to the point of being speechless.

    Shi Congda kept staring at him, not letting go of any changes in his expression, and upon seeing this, he said, "It's too late for you to explain, what is your relationship with Qu Jie, or the people behind Qu Jie?"

    He Shu took a deep breath—

    I'm here, I can't stand it anymore, I'm finally going to explain it!

    Seeing his expression, Shi Congda also felt that the main event was coming, and his eyes were glued to his face.

    He Shu: "Officer Shi, you lost your father when you were eight years old, and your father died in a car accident. When you were in school, you did not get good grades because you were too playful. You failed the college entrance examination twice, and you got the entrance exam only after the third reply. Now you are still single, right??"

    Shi Congda: ???
