Bao Le and Xie Huai sat in Han Ziyang's police car, chasing after the ambulance that had left earlier, but they were still one step too late.On the way, Gao Xing called Comrade Old Han, saying that he had just arrived at the hospital, and a middle-aged man rushed out from nowhere. The young apprentice was inexperienced, and in a panic, he let this man hold Zhang Jian hostage.

After Han Ziyang arrived at the hospital, Gao Xing kept crying and apologizing to Master.

"Where are people?" Xie Huai asked.

The little apprentice hurriedly said: "It happened in the 3rd ward. After the accident, I urgently contacted the hospital to block all the entrances and exits of the 3rd building. The kidnapper only brought a fruit knife. There are so many of us, he dare not talk to us."Recklessly, took Zhang Jian to the rooftop."

So they rushed to the rooftops of the 3 wards.

The small hospital in the suburbs has a long history. This ward is only six stories high. There are no high-rise guardrails on the roof, and there are only low walls less than one meter long. There is a high risk of falling from the building.Although Bao Le rushed to the rooftop with Han Ziyang and Xie Huai, they didn't let her in. The scene was dangerous after all, and they were not sure whether Baole's appearance would stimulate the murderer.

The little girl expressed her understanding, and she waited with Gao Xing at the door leading to the rooftop.As time passed, Bao Le, who couldn't see the situation on the roof, became more and more anxious, and finally simply walked along the corridor, pacing back and forth from left to right.

Probably when she was on the twenty-third round trip, a team of uniformed policemen came from downstairs. After a while, the middle-aged man who held Zhang Jian hostage was escorted past her by layers of guards.When passing by her, the man seemed to have noticed her, and gave her a cold look with eagle eyes.That look made the young girl break out in cold sweat——

It was him, she remembered those eyes!He was the one who attacked Nuluo Village!

Baole gasped, thinking to quickly tell Xie Huai this clue, but when she turned around, she bumped into Han Ziyang who came out from inside.Team Leader Han's hands were covered in blood, but he didn't look like he was injured. Baole couldn't guess whose blood was on his hands.Team leader Han with an extremely serious expression lowered his head and whispered to his young apprentice. Before leaving, he asked Bao Le to go in to help Xie Huai, and then the two went downstairs without looking back.

The little girl was startled, worried that Xie Huai was injured, she didn't have time to think about it, she quickly opened the door and entered the rooftop.

The rooftop was much bigger than she imagined, and there were dotted blood drops all the way, which should have dripped from Han Ziyang's hand just now.But this amount of bleeding must have injured the aorta!Bao Le followed the bloodstains to find Xie Huai and Zhang Jian by the fence. There were several policemen standing beside them, and the blood-stained knife was lying not far from Zhang Jian... Fortunately, it was Zhang Jian who was injured, not Xie Huai.Huai, Bao Le hurried over.

Xie Huai held the back of Zhang Jian's neck with one hand, and covered the wound on his neck with the other.Zhang Jian's face was terrified, and his mouth grew wide, as if he wanted to say something.But even if he wants to speak now, he probably won't be able to.

The blood at the scene was sprayed, there was only a small amount on the fence, and a large amount of blood was sprayed on the ground in front of Xie Huai, as well as on Xie Huai and Han Ziyang.This amount of bleeding, Bao Le guessed right, Zhang Jian was cut off the carotid artery.Carotid artery hemorrhage is fatal and will cause hemorrhagic shock. It only takes two to three minutes to die from the accident without rescue.Now Zhang Jian was lying on his side on the ground, with the neck on the injured side facing upwards. Xie Huai exerted force with his thumbs, facing the transverse process of the cervical spine, and pressed the upper and lower ends of the wound.This is already a very professional emergency rescue method, but after the artery is stabbed, the upper and lower ends will bleed, and it is difficult for him alone to do everything.And most importantly, send him to the operating room immediately.

There is a certain distance between the ward and the operating room, and I am afraid that Zhang Jian will not survive that time.

Bao Le didn't know what happened on the rooftop, but Xie Huai and Han Ziyang must have tried their best, she knelt down to comfort Xie Huai.Xie Huai stopped what he was doing. Like Han Ziyang, he had Zhang Jian's blood on his hands.

"He just now..." Xie Huai put the back of his hand that didn't touch the blood on his forehead, and smiled self-deprecatingly, "He said sorry several times just now. Most people encounter such a situation, they will first beg their captors not toHurt themselves, so they must say 'please' or 'let me go', but he only said three words 'sorry' from beginning to end. But if it weren't for him, many people would not die, youngNot in years... What qualifications does he have to say sorry now?"

The little girl licked her dry lips. At this moment, it seemed that all the words were so dry, so she only called his name softly: "Xie Huai..."

Xie Huai interrupted Bao Le loudly, looking at her with tenderness in his eyes.

He asked her softly: "Jiang Baole, if it were you, would you save him?"

This man once shot her and really wanted her life. Even if she said she didn't want to save him, it was understandable.

"I will be saved," Bao Le almost blurted out, "As Zhang Jian, he is not worthy of being rescued, but as a student at Beijing Comprehensive High School in 2006, he is the only important witness who can tell the truth back then. We need histestimony."

Xie Huai closed his eyes, he had already expected her answer.

In fact, Bao Le can more or less understand why Xie Huai asked her this question. Being able to ask such a question shows two points: first, he has recovered his basic rationality, and is no longer the one who saw Zhang Jian pointing a gun at her., Xie Huai who really wanted to shoot and kill; second, he had already thought of a way to save Zhang Jian.

Sure enough, Xie Huai snapped his fingers, and the familiar time paused, including Zhang Jian's bleeding wound.He helped Zhang Jian up from the ground, and said to Bao Le who was beside him, "Check where the operating room of the hospital is, and we'll take him there."

...

Xie Huai and Bao Le sat on the bench at the door of the operating room, quietly waiting for the rescue results inside.

Not long after, Xie Huai's cell phone rang.After he got through, he only said "still in the rescue", and then quietly listened to the voice on the other end of the phone.After a while, he raised his head and told Bao Le: "The arrested person said his name was Li Yue, and his identity is still being verified. He admitted that he was the murderer of the six serial murders, and that he attacked you.Because you appeared in the mountain temple, and he checked the coffin where the corpse was stored and found that it was empty, so he thought there was something wrong with you and wanted to kill you again."

Bao Le noticed that he didn't hang up the phone, so he hurriedly asked, "Is there any burn marks on the murderer's arm?"

Xie Huai froze for a moment, raised his phone and communicated with Han Ziyang on the other end of the phone, and then he nodded.Bao Le is relieved, it seems that this time he really did not catch the wrong person.

After hanging up the phone, Xie Huai leaned back in the chair, his fair and slender neck dangling back and forth, as if he was thinking about something.

The little girl asked casually: "What's the matter, is there any problem?"

If she didn't ask, Xie Huai might have to think for a while, and with his intelligence, he would be able to figure it out sooner or later.But Bao Le asked, and he didn't want to hide her intentions: "Everything seems to be going too smoothly. On the surface, it seems that they are all in line, but after thinking about it, many doubts have not been resolved."

Bao Le was puzzled: "For example?"

Xie Huai said: "Gao Xing reported the kidnapping to us 15 minutes before we arrived, and he didn't do anything for 15 minutes, so why did he wipe Zhang Jian's neck without hesitation after we arrived?Does he seem to be waiting for us on purpose? Besides, this is a hospital, and his murder weapon is only a fruit knife. Even if Zhang Jian was really injured, wouldn’t he be able to get medical treatment immediately? Unless, he didn’t want to kill Zhang Jian at all.”

"Don't want to kill Zhang Jian?" The little girl was taken aback, "Then why is he holding Zhang Jian hostage?"

Xie Huai hesitated for a moment before expressing his doubts: "Maybe he just wants to be caught by us."

When he said that, Bao Le became even more confused. What else did the little girl want to ask, but Xie Huai received a WeChat message.To be on the safe side, the reliable Team Leader Han took a photo of the wound on the murderer's arm and sent it to them.Bao Le glanced at it and was taken aback.

"This...isn't the kind of burn wound I was talking about."

Xie Huai was surprised: "Are you sure?"

"I'm sure," Bao Le said confidently, "the person who attacked me was standing behind me. I held him like this, so the fingerprint of the little finger must be in front, but the wound of this person is obviously the opposite."

"So, maybe I guessed right." Xie Huai took a deep breath, "The murderer is not this Li Yue, he did this to get caught by us, and then take the blame for the real murderer."

Bao Le thought for a moment: "You said that one of the two people in the worry-free ward at that time was this Li Yue, and the one who really wanted to kill me was his accomplice who was protecting me?"

"About this point, it's not that we don't believe you. In fact, Gao Xing sent me and Old Han the surveillance footage of the hospital. You said that the person escaped from the main entrance of the ward behind you, but from the beginning to the end this person enteredNeither the ward nor the exit ward appeared in the monitoring. But there is no surveillance blind spot at the entrance of the ward, so we have always doubted the existence of the person you mentioned," Xie Huai said, seeing Bao Le frowned, and said a word of comfort."But now anyway, Old Han and the others are investigating Li Yue's identity, and at the same time checking Zhu Yan's friends and relatives before his death one by one. Let's wait for their news first."

Bao Le wanted to say something else, when a person came at the end of the hospital corridor, the little girl turned her head and saw Jun Zhi striding towards her.Although the man still had no expression on his face, it felt like he was angry.

"What's wrong... Ah!" Before the little girl could react, the other party hugged her up.

Seeing the backs of the two of them leaving, Xie Huai recalled in a daze that Bao Le had an injury on his shoulder... But after so long, she was so busy that she forgot to bandage it, but he shouldn't have forgotten.He has a pair of beautiful hands with white and slender fingers, and now they are covered with blood stains that have not been wiped off in time, just like his life.Dr. Xie, with dark eyes, straightened his fingers, looked over and over, and smiled slightly self-deprecatingly.

The lights in the operating room finally went out after a long wait.

...

Bao Le was taken to a ward by Jun Zhi. Although she didn't have time to read the name written on the door of the ward, she could definitely guess that it was his ward.

He seems to be still angry, why?

"What's the matter with you?" The little girl asked cautiously, and then she felt that she was not sincere enough to add, "How is your health? Why did you get out of bed so soon? Shen Wangyan said that you are going to rest for a long time, youYou can't be brave!"

Jun Zhi sighed, and opened the side cabinet, which contained some basic medical equipment.

He was expressionless and said solemnly: "Take off your clothes."

The little girl was nervous: "What are you going to do?"

Bao Le hadn't withdrawn from the case just now, his head was full of murder cases, when he heard him talk about taking off his clothes, his first reaction was too real.She was originally sitting on a chair with pulleys, but now Quietly moved her leg and slid out.

Jun Zhi put down the medicine box in his hand first, freed a hand, pressed it on her back, and brought the person who was about to run away, including the person and the chair, back into his arms.

"Didn't you say you like me?" He bent down and looked at her seriously, "Then why are you hiding?"

"..."

This century-old hooligan played badly, and his stamina must have been too great, who could stand it, Bao Le blinked nervously, almost cramp, before swallowing a mouthful of saliva.

"Take off your coat."

Jun Zhi let go of her and took back the medicine box.As for Jiang Baole's little head, it had been down for a long time, and now he received the order to take off his coat mechanically.Jun Zhi found that part of the sweater fibers on her wound had been cut off. With such a professional technique, one could tell at a glance that the doctor had checked her wound, but he didn't know why he didn't continue to treat it.

He added a cotton ball with tweezers, soaked in the medicine, and wanted to apply it to her wound.

But if you really put it on so directly, with this girl's temperament, it is very likely that she will cry in pain.

Jun Zhi suddenly called her: "Jiang Baole."

The little girl raised her head in a daze: "What's the matter?"

He looked at her seriously, and smiled faintly. The smile that reached his eyes seemed to be telling him that he was in a good mood at the moment.

"I like you too."

...

"I'm sorry," Bao Le pulled up his coat, and looked at Jun Zhi very apologetically, "I was thinking about other things just now, why don't you confess again, and I will behave again, this time I must behave well!"

She also knew that she didn't behave well just now, Jun Zhi sighed, touched her head, thinking that although this girl is unreliable, at least he helped her to heal the wound.

He asked, "Thinking about the case?"

Bao Le was stunned for a moment, nodded abruptly, jumped up from the chair, and pulled Jun Zhidao: "Let's go find Xie Huai!"

The two rushed to the door of Zhang Jian's ward. It was said that the operation was successful and his life was not in danger.Xie Huai and a few policemen were handing over their work at the end, and they were puzzled to see them go and return.He also thought that with Jun's personality, he might not see Bao Le in a short time.

Unexpectedly, it was really a "short time".

"Xie Huai," Bao Le yelled anxiously, "I remembered something, I didn't connect it with the case before, but now that I think about it, it seems to be an important clue."

Dr. Xie frowned: "What's the matter?"

"Watch," Bao Le raised his hand, showed him the watch on his hand, and said with a serious expression, "My watch keeps going slower and slower!"

"So?"

"On the day Luo Xin was murdered, I sent Shen Wangyan to school. When I got off the bus, I checked the watch with him and found that the time was slow, so I adjusted it once. Then because I witnessed Luo Xin's murder scene, I lost my memory for a few days., but it didn’t take long. On the day I recovered my memory, I found that the time on my watch was ten minutes faster!”

Xie Huai was puzzled: "Someone adjusted your watch?"

"No," the little girl was very anxious, thinking why Xie Huai didn't understand what she meant, "The watch is always on my hand, of course no one else will adjust it, and there is no need to adjust its timeAh! What I want to say is, will there be a situation where my time is moving forward normally, but the time outside stops, so the time on the last watch is ten minutes off from the normal time. I know youWhat I want to say, I mean the same thing, just like when you saved me and Zhang Jian, time was suspended at that time..."

Xie Huai's expression changed instantly.

Bao Le let out a sigh of relief: "So the murderer is most likely a member of the Xie family."
