At noon, the sun is shining brightly.

It was only then that Lu Ming came out of his room. He had two big dark circles under his eyes and his hair was disheveled, as if he had just woken up. As soon as he walked to He Wei, He Wei covered her nose in disgust: "You didn't take a shower or brush your teeth? You didn't wash your face either?"

Lu Ming smiled sheepishly: "I slept too late last night and just woke up."

"Go and clean up quickly, we are waiting for you here."

Lu Ming returned to his room and quickly tidied up before feeling a little better.

Lu Ming was not interested at all in Blue Lake City's famous delicacies or Blue Lake fish. If possible, he just wanted to sleep again. Although it is already noon.

Last night, he tossed and turned until three or four in the morning before falling asleep. It's not that he's not sleepy, but he's used to lying in bed and thinking about problems for a while before going to sleep in the dead of night when no one is disturbing him.

Unexpectedly, this thought did not stop the car. He kept thinking and thinking, analyzing every detail as much as possible, trying to find a breakthrough. The more he thought about it, the more concentrated he became, which led to this mess.

After finishing cleaning up, Lu Ming left his room and met up with Zhang Dingshan and He Wei. The three of them left the base and headed towards the famous restaurant located on the outskirts of the city, next to the Blue Lake.

After parking the car and entering the lobby, before asking the waiter, the hotel door was pushed open again. Lu Ming turned around and unexpectedly saw Feng Guozhu also coming here.

At this moment, he was standing side by side with a very smart and capable man wearing gold-rimmed glasses. The two of them were talking while walking inside. Behind the two men there were other people accompanying them.

Seeing Lu Ming and the others, Feng Guozhu said something to the people around him and greeted them enthusiastically.

"Captain Zhang, Captain He, Captain Lu, hello."

"Hello, Director Feng. Are you here to eat too?"

"Yes, entertain old classmates."

"Okay, Director Feng can do whatever he wants."

After a brief greeting, Feng Guozhu left and went to his box with the people around him. He Wei chatted with the waiter for a few words, then found a private room and sat down respectively.

Lu Ming still looked distracted. He Wei handed over the menu, but Lu Ming didn't take it. He just said, "I can eat whatever I want."

It was obvious that his thoughts were not on the meal.

He Wei was a little dissatisfied: "Hey, just concentrate on eating."

After ordering a few dishes, Lu Ming took a bite and found that they tasted pretty good.

Judging from the cooking method, this fish seems to have been fried first, and then poured with a special sauce. It is also mixed with red chili peppers. It tastes spicy and refreshing, which is quite good. Coupled with other fish cooked in braised, steamed and other methods, as well as some side dishes, Lu Ming's appetite was finally aroused, and he stopped thinking about the case for the time being and concentrated on eating.

But not long after eating, there was a knock on the door, and then Feng Guozhu opened the door and walked in.

"Director Feng is here, sit down."

Feng Guozhu didn't have anything to do, he just happened to meet him and came over to say hello. While chatting, we talked about Feng Guozhu’s classmate.

"Hey, it's all trouble."

Feng Guozhu sighed: "Do you think some people are mentally ill? They dare to smash the load-bearing walls, and they smashed them in three places. Now it's better, the whole building has become a dangerous building. There are so many houses in this building. Why isn't it worth tens of millions? The family that smashed the load-bearing wall is very poor and cannot afford to pay compensation. Now other families are making trouble, and we don't know how the matter will end. This old classmate of mine happens to be a lawyer , is good at this kind of cases, I specially invited him to provide legal assistance, let’s take it step by step.”

Lu Ming smiled and said, "Director Feng is very concerned about this matter."

Feng Guozhu curled his lips: "How can we not take it seriously? In the end, it is not our Public Security Bureau's business if it really makes a fuss. Besides, Xiao Zeng's family is also in that building. Now that Xiao Zeng is gone, Mr. Zeng is not in good health. How can we still hope for it?" I sold my house to see a doctor... Hey, Xiao Zeng is my subordinate, I have to take care of his affairs no matter what."

"Xiao Zeng?"

"Zeng Jian." Feng Guozhu looked around and lowered his voice subconsciously: "The victim of Wang Quan's case, that security officer."

Lu Ming immediately thought of it.

"Zeng Jian...what happened to his father?"

Speaking of Zeng Jian, Feng Guozhu immediately started chatting. Perhaps it was because he had been depressed recently and had no one to talk to. Now he met three people from the second operation team. There was no need to worry about these things, so he just took advantage of the meal to talk: "Mr. Zeng's life is miserable... I went to the nursing home to see him yesterday. The doctor said..."

After telling the story, Feng Guozhu sighed again: "Xiao Zeng is also unlucky. There was a case a few days ago, several years ago, and it also involved him. If Xiao Zeng was still alive and had been punished and expelled, what would he have done? I don’t know how sad I will be. Fortunately, my superiors still have some humanity and will not pursue the case anymore for the sake of Xiao Zeng’s death in the line of duty..."

Feng Guozhu told in detail what he knew about Zeng Jian, and the three people who listened sighed repeatedly.

But apart from sighing, there was nothing he could do.

Feng Guozhu finally said goodbye and left, and the three of them continued to chat casually while eating. But Lu Ming's expression gradually became serious, and he was sitting there thoughtfully. He Wei raised her eyebrows with a smile on her face.

After waiting for a moment, Lu Ming sighed.

"What, what did you remember?"

He Wei smiled and said: "I knew it would be useful to go out to eat. Look, look. Do you remember it?"

Lu Ming shook his head, ignored He Wei's teasing, and said dullly: "I'm wondering if Zeng Jian's tragic death is related to Wang Quan's curse?"

Zhang Dingshan and He Wei both looked serious at the same time.

"curse?"

"Mr. Zeng has a newly diagnosed illness. This is the first time."

Lu Ming clasped his fingers and said: "The only house in my family has been implicated and has become a dilapidated house, and it is almost impossible to get compensation. This is the second one.

Third, Mr. Zeng’s disease is highly likely to be inherited. If Zeng Jian is still alive, is he about to get sick now? The fourth is that case. If Zeng Jian was still alive, he would probably be fired by now, or even go to jail if he didn't, and he would have to pay compensation to the drunkard.

This is what happened after Zeng Jian was cursed and died. I'm wondering if it's possible that the death of the person involved is not actually the end of the curse. Is it possible that this curse is spreading? "

Zhang Dingshan and He Wei looked at each other, their expressions becoming more solemn.

This possibility does exist. The most important thing is, how unlucky do you have to be for such a major life event to happen several times at once?

This probability is not impossible, but it must be extremely low. However, once this low-probability event appears together with a more mysterious "curse", it is difficult not to doubt whether the two are related.

Zhang Dingshan nodded: "It's worth checking."

"Judging from the current data, if this curse has a tendency to spread, it seems to be the first to affect the people closest to the deceased. Before Zeng Jian's death, there were parents and a fiancée at home. Now, the house at home is dilapidated, and the mother is almost He died years ago, and his father was seriously ill... How is his fiancée doing now? "

After Zeng Jian's death, it was obvious that his fiancée could only end her relationship with him and move on to a new life. But at that time, his fiancée was the third closest person to Zeng Jian after his parents.

She wasn't affected?

The three of them finished their meal in a hurry and left the restaurant in a hurry. After returning to the base, they checked the information and the three of them immediately found out the current situation of Zeng Jian's fiancée.

Before making the inquiry, Lu Ming had a hunch that Zeng Jian's fiancee's life might not be very good. When her information was clearly displayed in front of him, Lu Ming discovered that her life was not only bad, it was simply too bad.

Her legs are now paralyzed. The cause of paralysis was an unfortunate fall from a height. Affected by this, her mental state also had problems, and she was diagnosed with bipolar disorder. Her husband couldn't stand her suspiciousness and irritability and had divorced her.

Now she lives in her natal family and is under the care of her parents. Although her parents have pensions, the pensions can only support her follow-up treatment. In order to survive, even though her parents are old, one of them has to go to work while the other stays at home to take care of her.

"Just one person's affairs cannot be counted as evidence. Let's start an investigation and see if the other close people of the curse victim have suffered bad luck."

This still requires the cooperation of the local security bureau. At the call of the second operation team, Feng Guozhu formed a team again and began to comprehensively investigate the current situation of the family members and close persons of the confirmed victims of the curse.

He didn't know the real reason why Action Team 2 made this decision, and he didn't want to find out.

Some things are classified as such that he cannot access.

However, he still had a vague feeling that the decision made by the three members of the second operation team might be related to the incident of Zeng Jian that he mentioned during the meal.

Being able to help Operations Team 2 a little bit - although I don't know exactly what kind of help it was, it was always a good thing.

Feng Guozhu did this very carefully. The next day, a preliminary statistical report was presented to Lu Ming.

First of all, the first person is Zhang Lu.

It was because of Zhang Lu that Feng Guozhu was aware of this incident.

"This Zhang Lu, her close friends are also having a very bad life."

Lu Ming sighed and said: "Zhang Lu's mother was targeted by a criminal gang that specialized in defrauding the elderly a year ago. They set up a trap and defrauded the Zhang family of more than two million. In order to save this money, Zhang Lu Behind Zhang's father's back, her mother secretly mortgaged the family's house.

This is the life savings of Zhang Lu's parents. Now, although the criminal gang has been arrested, the money has been transferred long ago. At present, it seems that there is a high probability that it will not be recovered.

Now, Zhang Lu's parents can only rent a small house. Zhang's mother blamed herself all day long, and her nerves were already a little abnormal. Zhang's father began to drink heavily. Every time he got drunk, he beat and scolded Zhang's mother. There was no peace in the family all day long. "

This situation made Lu Ming feel a little heavy.

He Wei interjected: "I remember that Zhang Lu had a lover at that time? His name was Cheng Yu?"

Lu Ming smiled bitterly: "This Cheng Yu is even worse. He was set up to become addicted to drugs, and he is completely ruined."

"Set up?! Drug addiction?"

"Yes. The person who set up the trap has been caught, but the drug addiction cannot be eliminated. A few months ago, this Cheng Yu had just sold his family's house. His angry mother had a heart attack, and his father severed ties with him."

"Is this curse really spreading?"

First there was Zeng Jian, and now there is Zhang Lu. He Wei has already become somewhat convinced of this speculation.

It can't be such a coincidence, right? Why does bad luck only happen to those who have a close relationship with the curse victim? A normal person would be unlucky enough to encounter this kind of thing once in his lifetime. How could the victims of the curse appear one after another here?

He Wei didn't believe it if there were no abnormalities here.

"The second curse victim under investigation is Wu Biao. However, nothing unusual was found among Wu Biao's close friends."

"That Wu Biao seems to be a bachelor?"

"Not a bachelor. He has a wife and children, but his wife remarried. According to the investigation, his wife still hates him, and so do his children. This cannot be considered a close person. At present, Wu Biao's wife and children are living a pretty good life, which is considered an ordinary person's life. .”

"This Wu Biao seems to have no close friends, right?"

"Yes, he didn't have any of them before he died. Some of his friends are also friendly friends. They usually drink and eat. But if something really happens, one of them will definitely run faster than the other."

"The third person who has completed the investigation is Zhang Zhipeng. This person is relatively withdrawn and has no close friends. The person closest to him may be his sister, but the two of them only greet each other during holidays. He My sister is not abnormal and is doing pretty well."

"The fourth one is Long Shaojun. There are many people close to this person. His parents, sister, brother, wife, and two children, a total of seven people. He..."

Lu Ming looked a little heavy.

Long Shaojun's family was so miserable that Lu Ming couldn't bear it.

Long Shaojun originally had an extremely happy family. The husband and wife are harmonious, and the parents and siblings get along harmoniously. Other families may have conflicts when it comes to matters such as parental favoritism and division of inheritance, but Long Shaojun's family has no such thing at all.

But now, investigation data shows that these seven people who were extremely close to him have all suffered bad luck in the past few years.

No, maybe it's not bad luck, there are some things that seem to be self-inflicted. But all in all it was a bad day.

His parents were diagnosed with cancer, his younger brother became addicted to gambling, and he is now missing after being chased by debt collectors. His parents and his wife were in tears all day long. The elder sister was betrayed by her husband and has gone insane. Long Shaojun's wife left her children behind and moved away. Now, her children are just teenagers, but they have dropped out of school early and hang out with street gangsters all day long. The son is now in a juvenile detention center, and the daughter has had two abortions.
