Chapter 122: The Flying Warehouse Behind the Mountain Stone House

  Zhang Jun's eye muscles twitched slightly, his left eye blinked, and his gaze seemed to pierce through time and space, capturing the black shadow that opened the gas again. In the darkness, his triangular eyes were filled with ferocity and greed.

  Then he saw a large palm-sized red birthmark on the neck of the black shadow, which was covered with black hair and extremely eye-catching.

  At this moment, he slowly closed his eyes, and when he opened them again, a glimmer of cold light flashed in his pupils.

  "Murder!" he muttered to himself, lit another cigarette and went over the details of the murder in his mind.

  It was obvious that the killer used coal gas to poison the elderly couple, and the old man bit off his own fingers in a desperate bid for survival. However, for some unknown reason, the finger bones appeared inside a concrete block and were discovered by Zhang Jun.

  "Is there really a will of heaven in the midst of all this?" He felt a chill in his heart, took a deep drag on his cigarette, and then took the elevator back down to the ground.

  Tong Haichuan had been waiting impatiently and as soon as Zhang Jun came out, he asked: "Brother, have you found anything?"

  Zhang Jun did not answer, but instead asked: "Do you have the ability to command the Tianyun County police system?"

  Tong Haichuan immediately said: "Okay, the Secretary of the Political and Legal Committee of Tianyun County is my high school classmate, we are iron brothers, he will definitely help me with all his might."

  "That's good, let's go see your old classmate." Zhang Jun said calmly.

  Out of the apartment building, the two drove to the Tianyun County Public Security Bureau. Tong Haichuan called halfway, so Director Zhuo Bin had already arranged for someone to wait outside. As soon as they arrived, they were invited to the reception room.

  Zhuo Bin was about the same age as Tong Haichuan, but slightly taller, with thick eyebrows and big eyes that gave off an air of authority, giving people a sense of awe without even being angry. He seemed like a straightforward person, laughing loudly as soon as they met: "Old Tong, what wind blew you here?"

  Tong Haichuan laughed and said: "Can't you come visit me just because there's nothing going on? How is it that now that you're the director, you don't acknowledge your old classmates?"

  The two exchanged a few jokes, and Tong Haichuan introduced: "This is the criminal investigation expert I invited from above, Officer Zhang."

  Also belonging to the police system, Zhuo Bin was very casual with Zhang Jun, saying: "Lao Tong rarely praises people, he said you are a master, then you must be a master."

  Zhang Jun said calmly: "Not a master, just understand some forensic science. Director Zhuo, I won't beat around the bush, and Lao Tong came to seek your help."

  Zhuo Bin looked at Tong Haichuan and asked: "Still about that case?"

  Tong Haichuan nodded: "If this case is not solved, I will be uneasy in my heart!"

  Zhuo Bin shook his head: "This case is too difficult to investigate! Lao Tong, I advise you to give up. I've helped you before, but didn't we end up with nothing?"

  "Director Zhuo, I already have a lead. If you're willing to help, we can find the killer. Once we find the killer, the mastermind behind the scenes won't be able to escape either."

  Zhuo Bin looked at Zhang Jun with a skeptical expression, but still nodded and said: "Alright, since you're not giving up, I'll help you one more time. However, Old Tong, let's get the ugly words out of the way first, this is the last time."

  Tong Haichuan smiled and said: "Alright, this time if we still can't find out, I absolutely won't bother you again."

  Next, Zhang Jun let Zhuo Bin gather police personnel to find the murderer from two aspects. First, look for people who can open locks and have a red birthmark on their necks. Second, investigate patients with birthmarks in the dermatology departments of major hospitals throughout the county, and then send them over for him to screen.

  Zhuo Bin immediately ordered the mobilization of police forces to conduct an investigation according to Zhang Jun's requirements. The police station had no major cases recently, so the police force was sufficient and the action progressed very quickly.

  The next afternoon, both investigation directions had results.

  At the same time, Lian Fang, deputy captain of the Tianyun County Criminal Investigation Brigade, quietly ran to the bathroom and dialed a number. As soon as the call was answered, he said in a low voice: "Boss, that guy with the surname Tong is here again, this time bringing a mastermind who somehow found out about Mao Er's head."

  The other end of the phone was silent for a moment, and then a cold voice said: "You do two things now. First, get rid of Mao Er. Second, investigate clearly the master brought by Tong Haichuan."

  The deputy captain was shocked and said: "Boss, let Mao Er hide outside for a while, why..."

  "Jian Fang! Do as I say!" The other person directly interrupted Jian Fang's words, "Since the opponent has investigated Mao Er's head, it means that Mao Er is not reliable and must be eliminated!"

  Deputy Captain Lian Fang gritted her teeth and said, "Alright, I'll go do it right away!"

  As soon as Zhang Jun got the investigation results, he recognized Mao Er from the ID card copy. It was him! He didn't have time to explain anything to the crowd and took Tong Haichuan to Mao Er's residence immediately.

  At this moment, Mao Er had just received a call from Lian Fang. On the phone, Lian Fang said: "Mao Er, there's something I need you to do. Go to the stone house on the back mountain tonight, come alone."

  The stone house behind the mountain was where Mao Er and Lian Fang secretly did things, so he didn't suspect anything and agreed on the spot: "Okay, Brother Fang, I'll be right there."

  Mao Er hung up the phone and went back to the living room, saying to his wife who was watching TV: "Wife, I have to go out tonight, don't wait for me for dinner."

  "Are you going out now? It's still early." said the woman.

  "Yes." Mao Er responded with a single word, changed his clothes, grabbed his wallet and went out.

  Half an hour later, Zhang Jun and Tong Haichuan broke into Mao Er's home, but found no one there. After asking Mao Er's wife, they learned that he had gone out.

  Out of the Mao's house, Zhang Jun said coldly: "One step too late!"

  Tong Haichuan was extremely tense and asked: "Zhang Jun, how did you know that this person is the murderer? I don't understand at all?"

  Zhang Jun didn't explain and said: "Mao Er's wife said that he received a phone call and went out, don't you think it's strange?"

  Tong Haichuan thought for a moment and said: "You mean someone is leaking the information?"

  Zhang Jun narrowed his eyes, but again changed the subject, saying: "It's only been half an hour, Mao Er can't have gone far, I'll go find him. Lao Tong, you immediately return to the police station and let Zhuo Bin closely monitor if there are any police officers behaving abnormally in the bureau."

  Tong Haichuan said: "Where are you going to look? It's like finding a needle in the ocean, isn't it? I'll let Zhuo Bin send someone to help you instead."

  "Never mind, I have my own way."

  Tong Haichuan had no choice but to leave first, leaving Zhang Jun alone.

  Zhang Jun stood at the entrance of Mao Er's house, closed his eyes slightly, and then opened them to walk towards the alley on the left. After walking for a while, he took bus No. 6 and headed west.

  He walked and took a bus in turn, entering a supermarket, a fruit stand, and arriving at the west suburb of the county town half an hour later.

  Standing by the roadside, Zhang Jun looked towards a small hill in the west, where there was a patch of sunset red on the top. The sky had almost darkened. He took a deep breath and sprinted up the hill like a phantom, his speed incredibly fast.

  Ten minutes later, he finally found a simple stone house on the top of the mountain. This was a house built by local mountain people for resting during farm work, very low and small.

  Zhang Jun gave a cold glance at the stone layer and did not rush into the stone house, but instead hid behind a large stone.
