S.C.I Mystery vol 1 Chapter 44, The Killer Training Camp 16: Adding up

"Cat'er, what are you going to do?" Bai Yutang started the car and asked Zhan Yao, who had a treacherous smile on his face.


"Hmmm..." Zhan Yao mumbled for a little while, then suddenly came a reply, "Little Bai, do you think there's any obvious difference between these victims?"

"Is that a change of subject for you?" Bai Yutang smiled a little playfully.

"Get to the point!" Zhan Yao glared at him, "Tell me what you think of these victims, I know you know it in your heart!"

"Can't hide anything from you cat!" Bai Yutang shook his head and collected his smile, ''Actually, from the time Yang Feng set fire to make a scene, I felt something was wrong. Both Qi Lei and Yang Feng were used in the crime. And the first victims, such as the philanthropist who got sniped, the meth heads prostitute girls on the street, etc., all seem to have been picked at random. But the last two times, their goals became clear, and they were related to each other, not random, deliberately selected."

Zhan Yao nodded triumphantly, "That makes sense, does it?"

"Also." Bai Yutang went on to say, “Jia Zhengyan, Qi Yue, including that Zhang Hua ... They will be victims or targets, which seems to be different from the above two crimes... That's all for now."

Bai Yutang looked at Zhan Yao's somewhat condescendingly bowed head to the side and asked with a smile, ''How about it, expert, don't you already have a high opinion? It's your job to study people's motivations, and here's your chance."

"Go!" Zhan Yao gave him another glare and said, "What I found is actually about the same as you, but in a slight summary."

"Wash your ears!" Interest flashed in Bai Yutang's eyes.

If we classify the victims, we can boil down to three motives.

"Which three?"

The index finger of Zhan Yao's right hand tapped on the car window and slowly began to analyze.

"The first, like you said, were the first victims of Qi Lei and Yang Feng, who were chosen at random, seemingly to fit some sort of righteous value of Yang Feng and Qi Lei themselves. And as for the instigators of their crimes, the purpose, rather than harm, is to prove the existence of a Split Personality."

Bai Yutang nodded, "Go on."

"The second is that Wilson, Jon's were sniped at, Yang Feng made a scene on Nishang Street and Laura stabbed Professor Wilson three times." Zhan Yao explained one by one, "The sniping case at the dinner party directly brought the 'Killer Training Camp' into the police's view, while the Yang Feng fiasco brought the 'Killer Training Camp' to ahead... In the end, Wilson received the letter and was stabbed, pointing everything at the 'Killer Training Camp'."

Bai Yutang listened with a frown, seeming to catch on, saying, "That's right Cat'er, no wonder you said we've been led by the nose, so far it's not that we're going to focus our scouting on the 'Killer Training Camp', but.... someone wants us to focus on it."

"Bingo!" Zhan Yao agreed, then looked a bit troubled, saying, "It's just that this last third category, Jia Zhengyan's murder and Qi Yue and Zhang Hua's becoming the targets of murder, it's really beyond my comprehension, I can't figure it out."

There was silence for a moment, and Bai Yutang suddenly said, “Cat'er, could it be that we've drilled the bull's-eye?"

"What do you mean?" Zhan Yao was puzzled.

"No, if you throw out all that psychoanalysis, the reasons for killing are generally very simple." Bai Yutang casually enumerates, "Revenge killings, love killings... Killing to death..."

Speaking of which, the two froze at the same time - kill?

Zhan Yao grabbed Bai Yutang's clothes and shook them: "Little Bai! You're a genius!"

Bai Yutang smiled and came up to his face, "Come! Give me a kiss."

"Hmm!" The overexcited Zhan Yao reacted with a chirp and gave Bai Yutang a kiss on the cheek...

...and silence... Silence...

"Dead Mouse! You go to hell!" The red-faced cat started to get rough.

"Be careful, Cat'er! I'm driving!" A certain rat laughed like he'd fallen into an oil tank.

"Whatever!"

On the way back to the police station, the car is in an "S" shape.




When they arrived at the police station, Zhan Yao and Bai Yutang had a meeting with everyone at the first opportunity and explained their next plans.

After the meeting, Bai Yutang called the Ding family's twins and explained a few things, after which the two sat in the office with a look of excitement, waiting for the big fish to take the bait.

Around 12 noon, Bai Yutang received a text message from Ma Han on his phone, which read, "2pm, 13th floor, Creative Tower."

"The fish are hooked!" Bai Yutang, somewhat excited, forwarded the text to the twins.

The Creative Tower, now home to the White Group's film company, has a rematch of the band's audition this afternoon.

At 2:30 p.m., the game was played as scheduled.

Ding Zhaohui's unprecedented appearance at the tournament venue, as a significant shareholder of Bai Jintang and Bai Jintang's inner circle, immediately drew the attention of the staff present.

Ding Zhaohui paced leisurely, and when he saw Qi Yue, he didn't forget to say hello, a move that immediately drew speculation from many quarters.

Qi Yue was a bit confused, after all, this was half a boss, and the other side of the family had seen their own drug seizures in a scandalous manner.

Originally they had been disqualified from the rematch because of their drug use, but then for some reason they were notified of the match again.

But Ding Zhaohui's target was clearly someone else, and he slipped up to his agent, Zhang Hua, and climbed into conversation with him.

"Good luck." Pass the cigarettes.

Zhang Hua immediately took it in both hands, ignited... Draw.

They chatted for a few moments, and Zhaohui patted him on the shoulder with satisfaction and departed.

On the other side, Ma Han carried a black suitcase up to a tall building opposite the Creative Tower

The case, which he had just found in the shooting club's own dressing box, contained a Barrett M82A1 sniper rifle.

After Ma Han got the snatch, he came straight here, halfway to the bathroom, and sent a text to Bai Yutang.

Upon entering the building, Ma Han didn't choose the elevator, but instead took the stairs directly to the roof.

As she walked to the fourth floor, a cleaner pushing a dumpster stood at the entrance to the stairs and exchanged the box in her hand as the two brushed past.

Ma Han continued up the stairs as the cleaner retreated to one of the sealed rooms in the building and opened the case...

2:50 p.m.

Ma Han closes the door to the rooftop, pulls out the Barrett M82A1 from the box, assembles it, puts the bullet in, racks it to the guardrail, points it at the scope and starts choosing the angle...

3:00 PM.

The venue was abuzz with the Boiling Point band's performance, and Qi Yue's outstanding voice was infectious, not as innocent as a teenage girl, but full of taste. The judges nodded their heads in satisfaction, this singer, is a singer with great promise.

Zhang Hua looked at Qi Yue's performance and said, "I've really found a treasure this time... But, why is my head so dizzy?"

Ma Han took aim at Zhang Hua's heart through the scope and watched his movements silently, seeing that he seemed to be shaking slightly.

Pulled the trigger immediately.

As soon as Qi Yue finished, a clear sound of glass shattering was heard the moment the music stopped.

Zhang Hua felt a slight tingling in his heart, reached out and lifted his hand to see the blood all over his hand... A thought suddenly flashed through his mind... he, he killed someone, and then, his head heaved up, your consciousness blurred, and you fell to the ground.

When the people present saw the location of Zhang Hua and the blood on his chest, they immediately became disorderly and ran away screaming.

"Call an ambulance..." A few early awakened men on one side shouted.

"No need for an ambulance!" Ding Zhaohui stroked Zhang Hua's carotid artery and shook his head, "Just call the police."

Ma Han collected the gun, quickly disassembled it, put it back in the case, and quickly walked down the stairs, and as she passed the fourth floor, he met the cleaner again, exchanging cases...

A minute later, Ma Han had already disappeared into the crowd with the case.

Three minutes later, a police car came to the scene and carried Zhang Hua's body away.

Twenty minutes later, Ma Han stuffed the suitcase back into the shooting club's locker room, maintained a trance, and ran back home.

Half an hour later, someone walked up to Ma Han's dressing box, removed the black box, opened it, and saw that the original brand new Barrett M82A1 inside already had the marks of having been used... Smiled in satisfaction.

The crowd at the racecourse came to the police station in a state of confusion to be investigated by the police. Qi Yue, however, was called alone to the S.C.I.'s office.

Seeing Zhan Yao and Bai Yutang again, Qi Yue was somewhat confused, she didn't understand what was going on just now.

"Don't worry, just wanted to let you know so you can go along with the investigation." Saying that, Zhan Yao took out the photo of the female high school student found in Jia Zhengyan's house and showed it to Qi Yue, "Do you remember, have you ever seen this person?"

Qi Yue took the picture and looked at it, a little foxish on his face, not quite sure, "Hmm... It's similar, but it doesn't feel the same."

"You know this man?" Bai Yutang asked.

"Don't know." Qi Yue shook his head, “... We met once. That time on the street, seeing her with Zhang Hua... It seemed like an argument, but she looks a lot more fashionable and older."

Bai Yutang and Zhan Yao exchanged a glance, and Zhan Yao held out another, Fang Jing's picture in a magazine for Qi Yue to see, "Isn't that her?"

"That's her!" Qi Yue said affirmatively.

Zhan Yao gathered up the picture, "You leave later with the others and don't tell anyone you were here, okay?"




"Okay." Qi Yue nodded and followed Zhao Hu down the stairs.

“Wang Shao, Zhang Long!" Bai Yutang called for the two of them, "You keep an eye on Fang Jing 24 hours a day for two days to see what she's doing and who she's hanging out with, don't let her find out!"

"Yes," the two left quickly.

"Jiang Ping, look up all the information about Fang Jing, especially from her high school days."

"Okay."

"Cat'er." After arranging the group's work, Bai Yutang turned around and asked Zhan Yao, "What's next?"

Zhan Yao thought about it and said, "We'll just have to wait for Ma Han over there, the other side should have instructions down again soon, and then, we'll be able to piece together his intentions."

Bai Yutang nodded.

Xu Qing ran in, "Chief, Zhang Hua is awake."

“Yeah?" Bai Yutang looked at Zhan Yao, “Cat'er, how was the acting?"

Zhan Yao laughed, "That's natural."

In one particular ward, Zhang Hua felt like he was in an isolated intensive care unit, with strange tubes glued to his body, fixed to the bed, and various therapeutic instruments placed around him.

Zhang Hua woke up and felt some pain in his heart and mouth, his mind was not very clear.

"How are you feeling?" Zhan Yao asked.

Zhang Hua struggled somewhat to see Zhan Yao and Bai Yutang beside him, "What's wrong with me ~~" struggling to sit up.

Bai Yutang hurriedly pressed him down and said, "It took you a long time to get your life back, now don't move!"

"Huh? I..." There seems to be some confusion.

"You were sniped at and the bullet was less than a centimeter from the heart." Bai Yutang said matter-of-factly, "The doctor said you'll be in bed for at least another three months."

"I..."

"You know who's trying to kill you, don't you?" Without waiting for Zhang Hua to slow down, Zhan Yao asked after him, "You'd better say it, if the other party knows you're not dead, they might even send someone to kill you."

The expression on Zhang Hua's face changed as if he had made up his mind, ''Good, you bastard! It's Fang Jing! It's Fang Jing, that stinking woman trying to kill me!"

Bai Yutang and Zhan Yao exchanged glances, and Bai Yutang turned on his recorder and asked, "Why did Fang Jing want to kill you?"

"Because... Because I know her past! Also, those killings were all her doing." Zhang Hua was a little excited.

"Be specific." Bai Yutang asked.

"You guys don't look at Fang Jing, she's now a bit clear and he is a star agent, she handles the next handful of starlets, she used to, used to be one!"

"Can you talk clean?" Bai Yutang frowned.

"Oh, okay okay." Zhang Hua laughed with him, but his face was disdainful, "I met Jia Zhengyan in high school, when we were in a bar. We both have a bad family history, so we want to get some money to spend, then, we went to the underground casino, at first made a little, then the addiction became more and more. However, it was a long time coming, and on that occasion, we lost everything and owed the casino boss a debt. That boss wants us to pay him back or kill us." Zhang Hua sighed, "We don't have any money, well, I know Jia Zhengyan has a girlfriend, she's quite pretty, so I suggested that we use her to pay our debts."

Zhan Yao faintly froze, "Is it Fang Jing?"

"... Hmm." Zhang Hua nodded.

"Go ahead." Bai Yutang prodded.

“Jia Zhengyan, that kid first refused, then got scared and was willing, and then used her... And paid the debt." Zhang Hua said stammeringly.

"Did Fang Jing do it by choice?" Bai Yutang asked coldly.

"Uh... Anyway, she's usually pretty casual, if she is not casual, how come she's so young to be with a punk like Jia Zhengyan..."

"I asked you if she volunteered?" Bai Yutang interrupted him.

"... We... We gave her some medicine, and she behaved herself..." Zhang Hua said.

Bai Yutang frowned, "And then what!"

"Later, we didn't expect that drug to have that effect either, Fang Jing got addicted to it..."

"What's the medicine?"

"It's the kind of painkillers that street ponies give, colored ones... I heard it's not addictive, we probably gave her too much... Then, she got addicted. She refused to forgive Jia Zhengyan and broke up with him."

"And then what?" Bai Yutang frowned, "Can you talk fast and furious?"

"Good..." Zhang Hua continued, "Later, Jia Zhengyan flipped with me, and we lost contact, and I heard that Fang Jing went to college. Jia Zhengyan was like a different person. He became a much better person. He got into M University as a class teacher... We didn't get along very well... Then, I heard that Fang Jing left the country before she finished his studies."

"So how did you get involved with her this time?"

"I saw her on TV the other day by such a coincidence, she seemed to be mixing well. I went to find Jia Zhengyan, I wanted to find out if they were still together, but the kid was drunk that day, he said he told Fang Jing about the two students, and that Fang Jing was probably on the road to nowhere... I just found out that this kid has been treating Fang Jing like a dog owner to make up for her... And then... And then..."

"And then you used this incident to threaten Fang Jing and gain an advantage?" Zhan Yao opened her mouth, "What else did you want other than to have her help you get this job?"

"I... No, nothing more..." Zhang Hua hastily denied, "I don't dare to be too arrogant either... After all, she's rich and powerful."

"Jia Zhengyan, did you kill him?" Bai Yutang asked.

"No... No."

"But there are your fingerprints on the bottle." Zhan Yao looked at Zhang Hua with a twinkle in his eye and deliberately lied.

"No way, that bottle of medicine..." Zhang Hua snapped to his senses and shut up, but it was too late.

"Go ahead." Bai Yutang laughed coldly, ''Who told you it was a medicine bottle? Why didn't you guess that it was a soda bottle?"

"I..."

"Why did you kill Jia Zhengyan?" Zhan Yao asked.

"It's... Fang Jing told me to do it, Jia Zhengyan took those pills himself to win back Fang Jing's heart, but I know he only took vitamins and stuff... Then Fang Jing gave me a bottle of medicine and told me to change Jia Zhengyan's..."

Bai Yutang turned off the recorder, unplugged Zhang Hua, and said to the door, "Come in."

Then two police-like men walked in, "Team Bai, good acting."

"We are handling this over to you guys." Bai Yutang tapped both men on the shoulder.

"You guys... I..." Zhang Hua froze somewhat, "What's going on?"

"What's going on?" A police officer pulled him up, and only then did Zhang Hua notice that he had only a shallow red mark on his chest and no bullet hole.




"What hit you was a practice round drenched in blood." Zhan Yao said.

"I... You guys lied to me?" Zhang Hua looked up in disbelief at Bai Yutang and Zhan Yao.

"Fool you?" Bai Yutang laughed coldly, "Wait till you go to jail, scum."

After that, Zhang Hua was taken down.

Bai Yutang and Zhan Yao were sighing when they left the special ward... Fang Jing's behavior was abominable, but also pathetic... After all, she was the deepest victim.

Back at S.C.I., Zhan Yao and Bai Yutang walk into the office in silence, the case has come to a point where everything points to Fang Jing... But, is Fang Jing behind this, or is she just a pawn?

Didididdididi...

Bai Yutang's cell phone rang - it was Ma Han.

"Ma Han, how's it going?" Bai Yutang Press the hands-free button.

There was a long silence on the other end of the phone, and finally, Ma Han opened his mouth, "Captain, he sent me another email. It's Prey 2."

"Who is it this time?" Bai Yutang and Zhan Yao asked somewhat anxiously.

"Yes..." Ma Han stared at the familiar picture on the computer screen and said, "It's Gong-sun..."

What the...? What!...

Bai Yutang and Zhan Yao looked at each other, full of astonishment.

Early the next morning, Gong-sun, who had been confined for three days, finally left the house and walked towards the police station.

This time, Ding Zhaohui added some ingredients to his breakfast, and Gong-sun felt dizzy just walking down the street.

Bai Jintang, who was carefully following behind him, looked worriedly. What kind of system is this guy in? It takes three days for people to walk normally, so how are you going to live your life after that? Is it abstinence?

Just muttering to himself, Bai Jintang suddenly felt as if something was wrong, and the sound of a bullet slicing through the air...

Gong-sun swayed slightly and slowly fell to the ground.

Bai Jintang got out of the car and walked over to Gong-sun, and saw Gong-sun lying there with a clear bloody hole in his chest...

Nothing could be heard, and everything around him seemed to have disappeared. Bai Jintang stood frozen in place, feeling... This world is slowly falling apart...

"Gong-sun ... Gong-sun ..." Bai Jintang knelt down to Gong-sun with a confused face and picked him up, “Gong-sun ..."

The distant Big-Ding poked Little-Ding: "Oops, forgot to tell Big-Ding."

"Don't bother." Little-Ding's face was indifferent, "As soon as Big Brother took a pulse, he will know that Gong-sun is fine."

"Does he look like he's okay to you?" Big-Ding pulls past Little-Ding and points a finger at Bai Jintang in the distance... Bai Jintang's face was more dead than Gong-sun's.

Little-Ding was anxious, ''What's wrong with Big Brother? Feel his pulse! Either listen to the heartbeat and probe the nostrils!"

"Who'd have thought it at this time?" Big-Ding sighed, "Will big brother follow Gong-sun to double suicide?"

"Not so much, huh?" Little-Ding fussed.

"Why not?" Big-Ding despises, "How else do you think Romeo died?"

At this point, whoever in the crowd shouted, "Call an ambulance..."

Bai Jintang jerked awake, something seemed to be vaguely wrong, only to feel that Gong-sun's body was still hot and his pulse was pounding, and upon closer inspection... he just passed out...

The ambulance came faster than ever, Bai Jintang, without saying a word, carried Gong-sun to the car... Sure enough, it wasn't the doctor who was in the car... It was Zhan Yao and Bai Yutang who were embarrassed.

They arrived at the hospital and put Gong-sun on the hospital bed, Bai Jintang turned back and coldly asked the two, "Whose idea was it?"

Zhan Yao looked at Bai Yutang, eyes gesturing, "What are we going to do?"

Bai Yutang was frustrated: "What else can we do? Run!"

Only, unfortunately, before the two had a chance to turn back, they were grabbed by Bai Jintang, "You two little brats, you've eaten the guts of the leopard, I'll comb your skin today!"

"Yikes, yikes, yikes."

Outside the room, the twins heard the miserable screams coming from inside and turned around in shock and fled.

In the room, Zhan Yao and Bai Yutang are running away with their heads in their hands... The Bai Family is in a rage...

In a moment of crisis, Gong-sun's shallow whisper saved the kittens and mice who were shrinking in the corner waiting to die.

The hostility on Bai Jintang's face instantly disappeared, and he quickly pounced on the bed, just to see Gong-sun open his eyes and look at the crowd with a puzzled expression.

"What's wrong...?” Lifting the covers and sitting up, Bai Jintang's face was filled with surprise... To be exact, it was a lost and found ecstasy that was hard to conceal.

Thinking about what just happened, and seeing Bai Yutang and Zhan Yao hiding in the corner again, Gong-sun seemed to understand something, Bai Jintang's expression, making him blush slightly...

Bai Yutang pulled Zhan Yao and sneaked out, closing the door the instant Bai Jintang saw Gong-sun pulled into his arms and hugged him tightly.

Gong-sun just listened to Bai Jintang murmuring in his ear, "You're fine as long as you're fine, I'll do whatever you want from now on, as long as you're fine..."
