…

Ji Xinshui.

Lin Xian had never heard of this name before.

He was the one who invited Tang Xin to come to the East China Sea for research, and it was he who forced Zhou Duanyun to a dead end a year ago, but in the end he did not kill him and spared his life.

He was the former dean of the Tunghai University Research Institute, Xu Yun’s mentor, the matchmaker who introduced Xu Yun to a partner, and the person who ultimately expelled Xu Yun from his apprenticeship because of his hibernation research.

He has too many identities.

There were too many involved in the death cases of Xu Yun and Tang Xin.

Therefore, Lin Xian has always regarded Ji Xinshui as the “mastermind” like Zhou Duanyun.

Moreover, Ji Lin and Ji Xinshui were identified as accomplices by Lin Xian because they had the same surname and were related.

And now…

Ji Lin actually confessed and told this relationship directly to himself…

What is his purpose?

Is it a test?

Is it a trap?

Or do you simply want to trick yourself and see how far you have gone in your investigation?

However, there is no point in thinking about these questions now.

Because Ji Lin’s question was right in front of him, Lin Xian had to give an answer quickly.

the name.

Should I admit that I have heard of it?

Are you going to continue to act stupid? Or admit it frankly?

After thinking quickly in his mind, Lin Xian nodded immediately:

“I know this guy.”

“Oh? Where did you know that? News?” Ji Lin was obviously interested.

“Tang Xin told me.”

Lin Xian said lightly:

“At our high school class reunion during the New Year, Tang Xin told us that she would be coming to work at Donghai’s research institute after the New Year, and she was invited to come by a very prestigious figure who was also Xu Yun’s mentor, Ji Xinshui.”

“When Tang Xin and I met this name several times later, she often mentioned it, saying that her colleagues took good care of her and introduced her to the work of the symphony orchestra. We talked about these things a lot. of.”

…

After thinking about it again and again, Lin Xian felt that it was not a wise move to act stupid in front of Ji Lin.

Because Ji Lin is too smart.

You can’t take any chances in front of him.

If Xu Yun’s death, Tang Xin’s death, including the careful plan to call him to the investigation team, were all traps designed by Ji Lin.

It’s hard to guarantee that if he accidentally learned the name Ji Xinshui, was it also part of his plan? In his trap?

Denying it at this time is too risky and there is no benefit.

It’s better to admit it openly. There is no risk anyway. Tang Xin did say these words to herself, but she didn’t mention her name, mainly because she didn’t ask at the time.

“So, you are Ji Xinshui’s adopted child?”

Lin Xian turned around and started asking:

“Then the relationship between you and Xu Yun… I can’t figure it out. Is the sister you are talking about Ji Xinshui’s biological child? Or is she adopted?”

“She’s his little niece, but we grew up together.”

“But didn’t you say that you lived in Ji Xinshui’s orphanage since you were a child? How come his niece lives in an orphanage?”

“Our family is very complicated.” Ji Lin raised his head, looked at the ceiling, and said slowly: …. .

“Ji Xinshui never got married and devoted himself to his career, so he adopted many children and kept them in orphanages. But later he would take the smarter children to his side and raise them… It was said that he was raising them, but in fact he was just throwing them away. Servants and relatives took care of me, and I was raised by my sister.”

“All right.”

Lin Xian nodded silently.

This extended family is indeed complex.

To simplify the relationship, Ji Lin’s parents were killed in a shooting at 00:42, and then Ji Lin was adopted by Ji Xinshui and brought up by Ji Xinshui’s niece. Then the niece married Xu Yun and gave birth to Xu Yiyi, and then there are Xu Yiyi fell into a vegetative state, Xu Yun and Ji Xinshui broke up, which triggered subsequent deaths, and Ji Lin also came to the East China Sea.

But Lin Xian is not interested in this family map…

What he was more concerned about was that Ji Lin’s parents also died at 00:42, but they were not killed in a car accident.

This is somewhat intriguing.

According to Lin Xian’s speculation, the murderers must have used a car accident to kill at 00:42. Could other methods be used under certain special circumstances?

If this is really the case…then I am in some danger!

I thought that at 00:42 they only needed to avoid the road, but if they were really forced to find another way to kill people, they would be in danger no matter where they were.

However, it is too early to draw conclusions now.

Lin Xian couldn’t tell whether what Ji Lin said was true or false.

“Ji Lin, are your parents also scientists? Researching something?”

“Both of them are [mathematicians].” Ji Lin replied:

“But… I checked their relevant information. They were very young 20 years ago, and they actually didn’t have any great achievements. I was still young at that time, and I didn’t know what they were studying.”

“So this is what I’m confused about. My parents’ achievements are far behind those of Xu Yun Tang Xin, and the way they died was also different –u003eu003e

It was a car accident. Looking at it on a global scale… [On average, 106 people die from various causes on the earth every minute]. “

Ji Lin raised his hand and looked at the glowing smart watch:

“It’s 00:43 now.”

“Just in the past minute, about 106 people died in all corners of the world. Many of them must have died in accidents, but we can’t say that every person who died in an accident at 00:42 was these. Is that what the murderer did?”

“It is worth mentioning that since I came to Donghai to join the investigation team, there was a gas explosion in Donghai at 00:42, killing three people; there was also a car accident at 00:42, in which four people were seriously injured. , but two of them died after being rescued in the ICU for several days.”

“So… from the perspective we know, it seems that the case happened at 00:42, which is a very strange thing. But if you zoom out the perspective and widen the statistical scope, it will happen at 00:42 all over the world. There are so many fatal accidents every day and every month that we can’t even count them.”

…

Listening to Ji Lin’s words, Lin Xian nodded.

He once checked on the Internet about car accidents that occurred around the world at 00:42.

The results found… are too many.

The world is too big, with a population of 7 billion. People die in car accidents every moment. It is really too many. …. .

He didn’t know what Ji Lin meant when he said these words to him. Do you want to weaken the concept of 00:42?

“Lin Xian, I want to ask you what you think.”

Ji Lin suddenly asked:

“Do you think…the people who killed my parents are the same group of people as the murderers who killed Xu Yun Tangxin now?”

Lin Xian closed his eyes.

This is most likely a trap question.

Judging from the information Lin Xian currently knows, he is almost 100% sure that the death of Ji Lin’s parents must be related to their research.

[Mathematician], the big-faced cat’s father was also a mathematician, and he died because of this.

[00:42] If you include Ji Lin’s parents, there are four scientists known to Lin Xian who died at this point in time.

But in the real world, according to the information currently available, no mathematician has died at 00:42. If you are too sure, you will definitely arouse doubts.

“I don’t think so.”

Lin Xian thought for a while and then replied:

“The two scientists who are currently dead in Donghai City, their research fields are related to hibernation. I think scientists in the hibernation department are the targets of these murderers. If your parents are mathematicians… they should not be among their targets.”

“And the method of death is too different between a shooting and a car accident, isn’t it? In contrast, it is easier to hide the true purpose in a car accident, but it would be too obvious in a shooting.”

Ji Lin looked at Lin Xian.

After a while, he nodded:

“Yeah…I think so too.”

He turned over and got into bed again:

“It’s getting late, go to bed.”

…

In the next few days, the special investigation team for Xu Yun’s case began to work intensively under the leadership of Ji Lin, gradually detailing the murderer’s portrait, specifying the criminal behavior, and narrowing the scope of murder targets.

This development surprised Lin Xian.

He originally thought that Ji Lin was a troublemaker in this investigation team and obstructed the police investigation.

But this is not the case.

Step by step, he sorted out the context of the two cases and determined that the main murder targets of the murderers were scientists engaged in hibernation research. He also planned to prepare an ambush in advance when relevant scientists come to Donghai City next time. : 42 Close the net, arrest the murderer, find out the clues, and catch them all.

Lin Xian didn’t know what medicine Ji Lin was selling in his gourd.

His plan coincided with his own thoughts…

Lin Xian’s original idea was to ambush the scene of the crime and never let the vehicle involved in the accident escape again.

There were no breakthroughs in the previous two cases. The fundamental reason was that the murderer escaped and the vehicle disappeared, so there were no clues for further investigation.

But if a blocking net can be deployed at the scene or roadblocks can be set up on the only way to escape, the vehicle responsible for the accident can be stopped, the driver and murderer inside can be arrested, and this series of murders can be settled!

But the problem is…

Lin Xian turned his pen and glanced at Ji Lin who was concluding his speech at the conference table.

Isn’t he one of the murderers?

If the police really catch the driver who caused the accident… can the behind-the-scenes instigators Ji Lin, Ji Xinshui, and Zhou Duanyun really escape unscathed?

…

Chushanhe Manor, inside the restaurant. …. .

A family of three chatted over dinner.

Su Xiuying served a bowl of soup to Chu Shanhe:

“It’s been several days, and there’s still no news from Su Su. How is her blind date with Lin Xian going? Is it successful or not?”

Chu Shanhe chuckled:

“Let’s not ask so many questions about young people’s affairs and let them develop. Asking too many questions will put pressure on Lin Xian. Fate is very important in matters of love. If you can make it happen, you can’t force it to happen. “

“There’s probably no chance.” Chu Anqing snorted:

“Auntie, she has never been in love. She has never liked playing with boys since she was a child. She always chases and fights with boys. She definitely doesn’t want to fall in love honestly. And Senior Lin Xian… I feel that Senior Lin Xian is so gentle and gentle. , I won’t like a careless and lawless girl like my aunt, you two are just messing around!”

–u003eu003e

“That’s not necessarily the case.”

Su Xiuying smiled:

“Su Su is my sister. I watched her grow up. I know her too well.”

“It’s not like I haven’t introduced her to blind dates before. When she came back, she either cursed or looked angry at this and that. She never spoke in a good voice.”

“But this time…she came back very late that night, and she didn’t smell of alcohol at all. It was obvious that she didn’t go out to play with her friends, but stayed with Lin Xian until so late. This shows that the two of them still We had a long chat.”

“Then when she saw me, she was surprisingly emotionally stable. Without saying anything, she told me that the blind date was over and asked me to immediately comply with the agreement and unlock her bank card. Then she left without saying anything.”

“Ah? Auntie, she didn’t say anything?” Chu Anqing was very surprised:

“This is not her style, it’s too abnormal!”

“One thing brings another, let’s not worry so much and let them go.” Chu Shanhe chuckled and put down the bowl and chopsticks:

“It’s normal that there is no news about the two of them during this period. Lin Xian is now seconded to work in the Donghai City Public Security Bureau. He is very busy in the Xu Yun case special investigation team. Their team members all live in the dormitory of the unit and work intensively. I can’t get out normally.”

“Are you so busy?” Chu Anqing asked with concern.

“There’s nothing we can do.” Chu Shanhe said frankly:

“The pressure on the Donghai City Public Security Bureau is really too great now. There have been two consecutive cases of murdering scientists, and so far there are no clues at all. There is great pressure from all aspects. The leaders’ hair has turned gray with worry, and they just want to solve the case quickly, even if it is It would be nice to grab some clues, so Lin Xian and the others are really busy.”

“That’s it…”

Chu Anqing picked up her phone, clicked on Lin Xian’s profile picture, and looked at her circle of friends.

Indeed, there has been no movement for several days.

The dialogue between the two of them was the same. They hadn’t chatted in many days.

She plucked up the courage and sent a message:

“Senior, are you still busy? Have you eaten? I heard from dad that you have been transferred to the task force.”

Lin Xian responded quickly:

“Not yet, my colleagues have all gone to dinner. Ji Lin and I are working overtime here, as you have seen.”

Ji Lin.

Of course Chu Anqing knew him.

He was not only a genius mystery novelist, but also a famous screenwriter. The two had met at the New Year’s dinner, and his father had told him many times about Ji Lin’s work on the task force.

“It’s not good if you don’t eat on time…it’s not good for your health.” Chu Anqing thought to herself.

Seeing that there was a lot of food left in the kitchen, she took out the lunch box from the cupboard and packed the food for two people:

“I go out for a while!”
