    Xie Huai put his hands on his chest, leaned against the hood of the police car and closed his eyes to rest.

    Han Ziyang checked the final work, and when he turned his head, he saw his good brother frowning, not knowing what he was thinking.The young task force leader handed over the documents in his hands to his subordinates, and walked over lightly, trying to scare Xie Huai a little bit.

    When he approached, Xie Huai suddenly opened his eyes, a pair of deer-like eyes, with a faint mist, instantly giving people a feeling of fragmentation.

    Confused by the appearance, Team Leader Han began to seriously reflect on whether he had gone too far, and wanted to scare him at this time.After handing over a bottle of water, Han Ziyang walked up to Xie Huai, imitating him and leaning on the hood of the car together.

    "It has been set up, but the resources are limited, so it is 100 meters, and it is expected to last for ten minutes, and it will take more than five minutes to be effective. We will reserve fifteen minutes of preparation time, and you can handle it yourself."

    However, Team Leader Han, who had reported his work conscientiously, did not receive a response from Xie Huai.

    "What, are you worried about Jiang Baole?" Han Ziyang patted him on the shoulder, "Don't worry, I sent Gao Xing to follow. Although that kid has little experience, he graduated from an authentic police academy, so he can still protect a little girl."

    Xie Huai didn't speak, but just quietly looked ahead.

    So Comrade Old Han, who couldn't see it anymore, continued: "Instead of worrying about her, you should worry about yourself. This mission is so dangerous, you must come back unscathed, you hear me?"

    This time, his words did not come to nothing like before, Xie Huai slightly curled the corners of his mouth, and pretended to be relaxed while smiling: "When have I ever let you down?"

    "There are still five minutes before the start of the mission," Han Ziyang snorted and glanced at his watch, "Although I know you will be safe, but according to the rules, you have to leave a last word for such a dangerous mission. The current conditionsLimited, no paper or pen, tell me what you have to say."

    Xie Huai sighed: "You are really my 'good brother'."

    "Of course~"

    "Old Han, how many years have we known each other?"

    "Three years. To be precise, it's two years and seven months. Let's count it as three years. Why, it's not a good sign to start thinking about the past at this time."

    "It's not that I want to miss the past, it's just that this battle has come to the end. I didn't dare to think about it before, but now I'm relieved. There are many things that I didn't think about before, and now I have time to think about them," Xie Huai turned to lookLooking at Han Ziyang, he looked seriously, "Two years and seven months ago, if I hadn't met you, I would have been hopeless in this life. Brother, thank you, if it weren't for you, I might not know how crooked I am now."Where did it go?"

    "...Xie Youan, did you take the wrong medicine? Confession suddenly." Han Ziyang's whole body trembled.

    Xie Huai looked at his watch, stood up straight, and looked at the battlefield in the distance.

    "In the future, make an appointment to go out and drink together. If you don't get drunk, you won't return."

    As a policeman, Han Ziyang, as a full-time criminal counselor of the police station, since the establishment of the special case team, both of them have to be on standby anytime and anywhere, and they must not drink alcohol during work.Old Han, it's his hobby to drink a little wine when it's okay, but his good brother is an extremely self-disciplined person, even if it's not working hours, he doesn't drink much.It was the first time for Xie Huai to have such an invitation, but the more Han Ziyang heard it, the more unlucky he felt.

    Is this setting a death flag for him?

    ...

    The police convoy of the task force set off from the nursing home with the alarm bell on all the way, and every second counted, and arrived at Nv Luoshan even 40 minutes earlier than expected.

    According to the information obtained by the police station, there is only one Christian church in Nvluo Village.

    They first confirmed the location of the suspect. As Baijiu said before, Xie Lihua was praying in a Christian church.

    Immediately afterwards, Han Ziyang sent people to evacuate the other villagers in the village. Fortunately, there were not many people in this small village. When the owner of the Sunshine Inn heard that something happened to his aunt, he cried and refused to leave.He was forcibly taken away for interfering with police duties.

    In the end, the support material vehicle contacted by Director Zhao in advance also departed on time from the chemical plant closest to Nv Luoshan and was expected to arrive within 20 minutes.

    All is ready except for the opportunity.

    Before setting off, Xie Huai checked his watch with Han Ziyang for the last time, then he put his hands in his pockets and walked on the road prepared in advance.As he was walking, the sky suddenly began to snowflakes.Crystal clear snowflakes fell on his shoulders, and because of his forward movement, they were shaken off, some fell on his shoes, and some fell on the concrete floor of Nuluo Village.

    The snow didn't last long, and when Xie Huai walked to the door of the church, he couldn't even see the snow scum.

    According to what the nuns of the previous church said, in addition to the main entrance, the church also has a small side entrance, which connects their daily living bedroom and the church’s confessional.The priest is still doing confession to Xie Lihua in the church. In order not to startle the snake, they specially did not arrange for the priest to evacuate.

    Xie Huai went in through the side door, opened the door of the confession room, and under the surprised gaze of the priest, he took out his police certificate and made a gesture of silence.

    The confessional room is divided into inner and outer rooms, and a partition has been made.Generally, in this kind of confessional room in a church, believers who confess to the Lord cannot see what the priest who guides them looks like. Of course, this also facilitates Xie Huai's sneaking in.

    Xie Lihua, who was sitting outside, noticed that the priest's voice had stopped, and said tremblingly, "My Lord, are you unwilling to forgive me?"

    Xie Huai typed a few words on the mobile phone, asking the priest to continue the conversation with Xie Lihua, so as to relax the other party's vigilance.He himself looked up and down the structure of the church confession room, and estimated the distance from the confession room to the church door from the slightly open door.After finishing all this, Xie Huai glanced at his watch again, there was still plenty of time, and now he just had to wait patiently.

    Xie Lihua, who was confessing outside, didn't know anything about the police surrounding the church. She clasped her hands and closed her eyes tightly. She didn't know how anyone would connect her with the serial killer who killed six people in a row.

    "Since Yan Yan passed away, I don't know why I can't dream of her. Sometimes I just wake up and take sleeping pills and continue to sleep, but no matter how long I sleep, she hasn't appeared in my dreams once over the years. Gradually, I began to be unable to distinguish between dreams and reality," Xie Lihua said softly, "and one day I woke up and found myself lying with a dead cat whose head had been beheaded...I'm afraid, that must be Yanyan hinting at me..."

    The priest gave guidance: "Since you came to confess to the Lord, what did you do afterwards? Don't be afraid, the Lord will forgive everyone who is willing to repent for their actions."

    "I... I began to like cat corpses, mutilated cat corpses. I was very happy to see them struggling and not wanting me to approach them. I buried the cat corpses in the snow and put them in the pramCome on... I read in the book that seven lives are exchanged for one... Maybe my beauty can come back..."

    Xie Huai turned on the headset, and Xie Lihua's voice came to Han Ziyang intact.Although she was talking about killing cats, this undoubtedly admitted that she was the murderer. After all, the police never informed the public of details such as "buried in the snow and placed in a cradle".

    Xie Lihua said again: "But sometimes, I feel afraid. My hands are covered with blood. If I die, I will fall into hell. My beauty is not by my side, what should I do?"

    "She will probably never forgive you." Xie Huai pushed open the door of the confession room and walked out calmly.

    Xie Lihua was stunned for a moment, she obviously didn't expect Xie Huai to come out of the confession room.She should have recognized herself, Xie Huai thought, after all, when he rushed to the nursing home, he was standing beside Han Ziyang.Since she knew that she was a policeman, she was only slightly taken aback. This state was abnormal.

    Sure enough, Xie Lihua gradually came back to her senses, smiled, and greeted him without panic: "I remember...your name is Xie Huai."

    Xie Huai was surprised: "You know me?"

    Xie Lihua nodded: "Your mother and I used to be best friends. When you were just born, I went to your house with my face. Your mother, that woman likes to show off, showing off her husband, showing off her son,We have a drawer for your photos. I heard that you studied law in college, but I didn’t expect to become a policeman. I was shocked to see you in the nursing home just now. But think about it, it’s almost like you went toAfter college, I didn’t get letters from her very often.”

    Xie Huai's face was half dark when she mentioned her mother, but the other party seemed to be doing it on purpose.The more Xie Lihua talked, the worse Xie Huai's mood became. His nails were embedded in his flesh, leaving a red mark.

    "It seems that your precious son doesn't like her mother very much." Xie Lihua sarcastically said.

    Taking a deep breath, Xie Huai took off the handcuffs hanging around his waist, and took a step forward: "Xie Lihua, now I suspect that you are related to a serial murder case, please cooperate and come with me."

    Xie Lihua snorted coldly: "I don't understand what you are talking about."

    Xie Huai suddenly found it ridiculous that she still felt that she could escape punishment by denying the crime.This is the woman who killed Niannian. As she said just now, she watched Niannian struggle but was unable to escape, and desperately begged her to let her go, but in the end she still chose to kill her, and even the whole body died.Did not leave it to her.

    "Of course you don't know," Xie Huai said coldly, "You don't know that you killed Luo Xin, you didn't know that you killed Chen Xiaocheng, you didn't know that you killed Cheng Jiashi, you didn't know that you killed Hou Mingjun, you didn't knowYou killed Xiang Yi by yourself, but you didn't know that you killed Jiang Baole... You didn't even know that in order to fulfill your last wish for you, Guan Shuping held Zhang Jian in public in the hospital, and now he confessed all his crimes in the police station, just to save you.You take the blame!"

    Xie Lihua was stunned, and said softly: "Shuping..."

    "Unfortunately, the most damned Zhang Jian didn't die," Xie Huai continued, "We have never been able to explain the truth back then. If everyone avoided talking about it, how did you know exactly that everyone present at that time had the truth?Whose. So we checked the call log on the day Zhu Yan was killed, and the last call was to you. Maybe Zhu Yan forgot to hang up the phone, and something happened, and you heard it from the other end of the phoneThe process of what happened. It stands to reason that Zhang Jian must be the person you hate the most among the people present at the time, but you never killed him. That’s because you knew that Zhang Jian was the culprit, and you didn’t go there earlier than the police.That being the case, I might as well tell you that the one who stabbed your daughter was indeed Zhang Jian, and the murder weapon was the metal trophy placed in the gymnasium."

    "It really is him, hahahaha," Xie Lihua's eyes were red, "They are not human at all, they are the dirtiest maggots in the world. They should have died long ago. What is wrong with me? That Chen Xiaocheng...why is she alive?My Yanyan is dead, do you really think she is Yanyan's friend? I took a knife and asked them the truth, but when she was about to die, she still wanted to quibble, so of course I sent her to accompany Yanyan. TheyThey don't deserve me to give them a chance, one day, I will kill all of them."

    "What about Jiang Baole?"

    Xie Huai asked the question he had always wanted to ask: "What's wrong with her? She was only eight years old when the accident happened."

    Xie Lihua screamed, pounded the table beside her angrily, and looked at Xie Huai with a ferocious face: "She was the only witness at the time, do you know how long I begged her parents after the accident, I knelt on the ground like a dogI prayed the same... Her parents kept saying that she was still awake, but I saw that she was standing behind the crack of the door, looking at me with those sinister eyes. You think, if she didn't say anything,Will Yanyan's case end in a car accident so quickly? But this woman, she grew up like a normal person, and she was admitted to Beijing Comprehensive University... that was Yanyan's goal all along, and she will take the college entrance examination in one year.Her grades are so good, she will definitely pass the exam."

    As Xie Lihua spoke, there were signs of madness.

    But compared to being crazy, who can be crazy than Xie Huai.

    He looked up and calmed down for a while, inserted his fingers into his hair, supported his forehead, and said with a half-smile: "Do you know why what happened to Zhu Yan in the gym ended up in a car accident on Pingsheng Street?"

    Xie Lihua was stunned for a moment, unable to answer this question.

    "Because there is a children's hospital on Pingsheng Street," Xie Huai said word by word, "The person your daughter gave her life to save was killed by you."

    Xie Lihua was shocked: "Impossible, you are talking nonsense!"

    So Xie Huai asked again: "Do you know why the murder weapon that stabbed Zhu Yan has never been found?"

    Xie Lihua murmured: "For...why?"

    "Because she pulled out the murder weapon herself, wiped off the fingerprints on it, and put it back again."

    "Impossible, why did Yan Yan do this?" Xie Lihua pointed at Xie Huai and shouted, "Don't lie, I won't believe a word!"

    Xie Huai smiled cruelly: "Why did you do this? She lost her father when she was young and was in a single-parent family, but she had a happy childhood, and her mother has always taught her carefully. Do you think her mother didn't teach her to dare to admit her mistakes?To be kind to others, to help the weak?"

    Xie Lihua was silent.

    "It's a pity," Xie Huai sighed, "She still remembered it until the last moment of her life, but her mother has forgotten what she once said after so many years."

    Xie Lihua regained her composure, then looked at the door of the church, stopped answering his words, and changed the subject instead: "You probably won't come alone, are your colleagues from the police station guarding the door?"

    Xie Huai did not answer this question.

    Xie Lihua then said again: "I know you want to find a loophole by provoking me, but as you said just now, Zhang Jian is not dead, so I still have something to do, so I can't be arrested now."

    Xie Lihua took two steps backwards, a trace of sadness crossed her face.

    "Although I don't like your mother, and I don't like you much, but I hugged you when you were just born. I never thought that the girl that day would be your girlfriend. About this, Iterribly sorry."

    Xie Huai was slightly taken aback, but when he looked at Xie Lihua, the other party disappeared into the air in front of him.

    ...

    The weather was getting colder, Han Ziyang rubbed his hands while looking at his watch.Calculate the time, it should be almost the same.But Xie Huai didn't show up as planned, and there was no news at all. Team leader Han felt more and more that the situation was not good.

    "Captain, it's time."

    Han Ziyang thought he couldn't wait any longer, and greeted his subordinates: "Retract the net."

    All the guards guarding the church door were dispatched, but no one walked into the church. Everyone followed Han Ziyang and rushed to the right rear of the church.From far away, Han Ziyang saw two people lying on the ground, both Xie Lihua and Xie Huai were there.

    "Wait," Han Ziyang stopped his subordinates who were rushing forward, "put on a gas mask."

    The subordinates looked at the thin layer of "snow" on the ground in the distance. Fortunately, they were reminded, otherwise it would be quite painful for this thing to enter the respiratory tract.

    Han Ziyang took an extra gas mask, and when he rushed to Xie Huai and Xie Lihua's side, he realized that Xie Huai had put his own gas mask on Xie Lihua's head... According to the plan, he should have stayed in the church instead of being with Xie LihuaAppearing here together, I don't know what went wrong halfway.

    Xie Huai didn't know how long he had been lying here, and how much poison he had inhaled. Han Ziyang only knew that his breathing was extremely weak now.

    "Xie You'an! Xie You'an!" Comrade Old Han called him twice through the gas mask.Xie Huai seemed to have heard it, and rolled his eyes, but there was no reaction after that.

    Han Ziyang carried Xie Huai on his back, a big man who was 1.86 meters tall, he carried it on his back as soon as he said it, and took him to the direction of the ambulance that was prepared in advance.

    "Xie Youan, I won't allow you to die!"
