Chapter 177 Rebirth after catastrophe

There was a noise outside the window.

It sounds like the sound of wind, but if you listen carefully, it doesn't sound like it.

The sound was getting closer and closer to us, as if tens of thousands of flies were hovering above our heads, and our eardrums were buzzing.

I quickly closed the book I was writing in my hand, stood up and looked through the window into the distance.

"Is it a helicopter?"

As soon as I finished speaking, everyone else was lying in front of the window of the restaurant. Only Hou Wen... no, only He Li and Pang Zheng were still standing in front of He Chuan to prevent him from taking the opportunity to escape.

It is rare for the police to use police helicopters. On the one hand, this may be due to the seriousness of the case, and on the other hand, it may also have something to do with Sun Xiangdong's energy in Linhai City.

In any case, when I saw the heavily armed SWAT police rushing down from the landing helicopter, I finally breathed a sigh of relief, and then I felt like "dawn".

"The police are already here, just surrender and arrest me!"

I heard He Li's voice behind me. These words should have been addressed to He Chuan.

I turned around and saw He Chuan secretly grabbing a fork from the dining table behind him, as if he wanted to make a last ditch effort.

Just when I was about to shout out the word "He Chuan", He Li rushed in front of He Chuan, used anti-joint control to knock the fork off He Chuan's hand, and without saying a word, he knocked He Chuan down.

On the ground.

The whole process was completed in one go, without a word of nonsense. He Li was completely different from the eloquent He Li just now.

Soon, four or five special police officers rushed into the restaurant. They couldn't tell who the murderer was, so the leading police officer gave an order, ordering everyone to stand up and lean against the wall with their heads in their hands.

Including Sun Xiangdong is no exception.

I had never seen such a formation before. I was stunned on the spot. It was only after the police pushed me that I leaned against the wall tremblingly. Not to mention talking, I didn't even dare to take a breath.

Immediately afterwards, a siren sounded from near Liuli Island Pier, and the sound got closer and closer. Then a large number of police officers rushed into the cafeteria of Liuli Pavilion and surrounded us heavily.

The identities of us survivors in Liuli Pavilion were verified one by one, and only then did I know that the guy who originally called himself Hou Wenyu was really a policeman, and his real name was the same as what he said today.

He Li.

With He Li's explanation and the witness of others, the police quickly figured out the truth, and He Chuan was regarded as the murderer and put in handcuffs and shackles.

He Chuan gave up his defense and was pushed out of the restaurant by the special police with his head hung low.

Looking at the back of He Chuan being pushed out, I thought that if He Li hadn't come forward to reveal the truth of the case to the world, would the person being pushed out at this time be Cui Hao?

Through the dim yellow sunlight projected from outside Liuli Pavilion, I noticed that He Chuan was still looking back at the restaurant from time to time. His eyes were fixed on Sun Feifei, and a strange smile appeared on the corner of his mouth inadvertently.

I never expected that the last face left to me by "The Great Detective" He Chuan would have such a strange expression.

After He Chuan disappeared from our sight, the rest of us returned to the Feixing yacht under the arrangement of the police.

I was sitting alone in the cabin of the yacht and saw the coast guard patrol boat next to the Feixing gradually starting up, and the yacht's engine also roared.

It’s finally time to leave Liuli Island.

Hearing this sound, I was temporarily relieved of the heavy psychological burden. I lay down in front of the round window of the cabin and stared at the increasingly smaller Liuli Island.

At this time, it is moving away from us silently, as if only the windmill on the island is still turning over and over again, never stopping.

The sea breeze stirred up waves around the yacht, splashing water droplets and drawing arcs in the air.

Suddenly, there was an inexplicable emotion in my chest.

I don't know what kind of emotion that is. Facing such a special island, I suddenly wanted to cry, but I couldn't.



When night fell, I walked from the cabin to the front deck of the yacht. In the distance was the dimly lit coast of Linhai City, and three familiar figures were swaying in front of me.

"Meng Xuezhou, you had a good rest." He Li said with a smile while holding his jacket that was swollen by the sea breeze.

I touched my forehead sleepily and replied unsteadily: "Hou... no, Detective He, please stop teasing me. I have a headache now. I seem to have had a nightmare just now and I feel like I'm going to explode."

"

Although I said I had a nightmare, I couldn't recall the content of the dream at all.

"Didn't you always call He Chuan Detective He?" Yi Xiaoran asked with a pouted mouth.

I waved my hand and said, "Hey, who would have thought that the murderer could be so powerful? He was really calling out "thief, catch thief," and he played around with us."

"By the way, He Li." Yi Xiaoran turned around and asked, "Did you guess that the murderer was He Chuan from the beginning?"

He Li shook his head and said: "I never guessed that he would be the murderer, otherwise I would not have kept it secret until the last moment to identify his real murderer."

"But then again." He Li added, "This guy is really powerful. For a few moments, I even mistakenly thought he was also a policeman..."

Yi Xiaoran stared at He Li with admiring eyes and said playfully: "You are my little policeman brother!"

What Yi Xiaoran said made me feel uncomfortable all over. In addition, the yacht kept bumping, so I staggered and almost fell.

Yi Xiaoran quickly supported me, frowned and asked, "Is it because I have a fever?"

"It's hard to say." My body was shivering due to the sea breeze, "By the way, why did He Chuan kill so many people?"

"I don't know." He Li looked up at the starry sky and replied, "I guess it may have something to do with the fall of the reporter named Jiang?"

"Oh? Is there any basis for this?" I asked.

He Li shrugged: "Intuition. But the police on this yacht are still questioning Sun Feifei in the master cabin. I think Sun Feifei may know the real answer."

I asked quietly: "He Li, you are also a policeman, why don't you go and explore!"

"Although I am a police officer, I am also one of the parties to the case. According to the procedures, I need to recuse myself." He Li shook his head.

Encourage He Li

"By the way, when can we dock?" Yi Xiaoran pursed her lips and asked suddenly.

"Soon." Jiang Jinyu leaned against the guardrail and smoothed her curly long hair, which looked particularly coquettish under the shadow of the moonlight.

She pointed to the distance again and said: "Look, there is the Linhai Passenger Port ahead."

Not long after, with a muffled sound, the Feixing yacht finally successfully docked. A group of us also walked out of the yacht under police escort.

The moment I stepped onto the land at Linhai Port, a joy of rebirth suddenly emerged. However, from the corner of my eye, I saw He Lizheng turning around and looking in the direction of Liuli Island.

I followed him and looked at the black sea behind me, as if there were many unknown secrets hidden there.
