Chapter 507: Good Place

Although it was only mid-October, it was not particularly cold during the day, but at night, the strong wind rushed straight at people, which was quite unbearable.

The luck on the first night was relatively good. After six hours of rapid march, they encountered a simple sheepfold built by a shepherd on the side of a hill.

At this time, the sheepfold was empty, with no people and no sheep, which was just right to block the wind, at least they could sleep peacefully.

Although Chen Shu and Yu Maiken met for the first time, the two of them cooperated well. They agreed that the two of them and Captain Zhao would take turns to keep watch outside the sheepfold, and dozens of members of the special investigation team and Xiaoqiang who insisted on following them would sleep inside.

After all, it was still warmer inside.

However, the two still had a small dispute over whether to light a bonfire, and in the end, the local Yu Maiken won.

Yumaiken added some firewood to the bonfire, and the fire was burning: "Officer Chen, don't worry, those 'rats' don't have the courage to come back. They only bully the unarmed civilians."

Yumaiken has a good impression of Chen Shu. For local police like them, catching murderers and killing K is a matter of course and they are used to it.

Most of the police from inland and coastal cities who come to support will leave after a year or two. They can help to share the duty. The dangerous work must be done by the local police themselves.

First, they are worried that they are not experienced enough and accidents will happen; second, they are embarrassed, after all, this is their hometown.

This is an unspoken understanding between the police in the two places.

Although Yumaiken was born an orphan, he now has someone he wants to protect all the time, and he also wants to give her a safe and happy environment in the future.

Therefore, the policeman from the coastal city who just came to investigate actually took the initiative to join their front-line search team. You know, they are now facing a K-member who is armed and kills without blinking an eye, so Yu Maiken still admires him.

If there is a chance, ask Lao Zhao. I heard that this guy is also a tough guy in Donghai. Yu Maiken threw a cigarette to him.

"Special police?"

Chen Shu took the cigarette, took out a lighter and lit it for the two: "Special police."

Yu Maiken took a big puff and suffocated for a long time before spitting out: "I heard that the police in your place have two days off on weekends?"

Chen Shu thought of the frequent release of the first-level duty in recent times, and pondered: "At least one day a week. But if you count the compensatory leave for duty, you can still make up two days."

"You can also make up for one day of compensatory leave for duty?" Yu Maiken's eyes flashed behind the smoke, a little surprised.

"How can you bear to stay up late without a day off."

"Yes, we also give rest, but it's just time to sleep."

". Sorry." Chen Shu said sincerely.

There was a long silence, and the firewood was crackling.

"Captain Yu, I heard from Captain Zhao that you have been offered a reward of one million US dollars abroad. This is a big deal, and you are an Internet celebrity." Chen Shu tried to break the dull atmosphere and joked.

Yu Maiken laughed, stretched out his right hand, and clenched his fist several times with his palm facing the sky: "An Internet celebrity who kills people? It doesn't sound like a good thing."

"But... you said... what does it feel like to kill people... can you sleep at night..."

Chen Shu suddenly thought of the murderer A who he killed with his own hands years ago, and a complicated feeling surged into his heart.

He felt that since that incident, he seemed to have become a different person from before, a little strange. This feeling is particularly strong in the dead of night.

I will feel palpitations, fear, and even more confused.

Chen Shu imitated Yu Maiken's behavior, stretched out his right hand that fired the gun and placed it in front of his eyes, stretching and clenching, clenching and stretching.

Oh, this hand stained with blood.

In the wilderness, by the bonfire, in the quiet night, Chen Shu's casual question, in fact, was just a question to himself, but it made both sides more embarrassed.

"People who can't give up anything, can't change anything after all."

Yu Maiken threw the cigarette on the ground and stomped it out with a "puff". Then he said cheerfully: "I heard that the police in your place don't carry guns when they go out?"

"Well, in our place, we all think that carrying guns is a burden. Except for our special police who need armed patrols, other police don't carry guns very often."

"What a good place. I'm a little envious."

The firelight reflected Yu Maiken's face, and his shadow was shaking.

He smacked his lips and added a lot of firewood to the bonfire, and the temporary camp suddenly became brighter.

Chen Shu pointed at the increasingly bright fire and said unhappily: "Captain Yu, you can sleep like this? What if the K elements come over in the dark? Wouldn't we all be doomed?"

Yu Maiken took out a flip-top pocket watch from his arms, opened and closed it, squinted his eyes and looked at the dark Gobi outside the sheepfold, and said with a smile: "I can sleep, otherwise how can I have the energy to catch mice tomorrow?"

He is a ruthless man. Chen Shu hung the cigarette on his ear, stood up and stretched: "You are right, I have to keep enough energy to work tomorrow."

"Good night."

"Good night."

It was still dark in the early morning.

Chen Shu, who was sleeping at the door of the sheepfold, pressed the beeping alarm on his mobile phone, got up and went to the big tree not far away to change shifts with Yu Maiken, who was on duty.

Yu Maiken took back the pocket watch, took the sleeping bag and slept directly under the tree.

Although the entrance to the sheepfold is not particularly warm, it is at least better than under a big tree to block the wind. Chen Shu was surprised and was about to give some advice, but he didn't expect that Yu Maiken had already turned over and was snoring loudly.

"Crackling."

Following the sound of footsteps, Wang Hao walked over and sat on the edge facing Chen Shu's curious eyes.

"I can't sleep, so I came here to chat with you. Do you mind?"

Chen Shu imitated Yumaken's actions and threw a few pieces of wood into the bonfire: "Excited?"

"Afraid."

Seeing that Chen Shu was a little surprised, Wang Hao shrugged and said helplessly: "I'm not them, how can I not be afraid? You just came here and don't know the situation here. It's quite common for the police to kill people. Just stay alive. They get used to it.”

Chen Shu was silent.

Wang Hao raised his chin towards the place where Yumai Ken slept: "Do you know why this guy sleeps outside? In fact, he is worried that we can't keep up the night! Hey, it's a life of wasted work!"

"Ahem." The sound from the sleeping bag suddenly turned from snoring to coughing.

Wang Hao was amused and continued to gossip about the captain of the special agent: "This guy is also a man who is desperate for life. Just last month, he had a fight with someone. The bullet penetrated his left arm and left chest, breaking three ribs. One of them was inserted into his left lung!”

He raised his hand and made a three sign: "3 centimeters, the bullet is only 3 centimeters away from the heart, otherwise it would be a game over. Haha, I have only been in the hospital for a month and am working in the fields. I don't know what to worry about."

"Hey, are you afraid that the earth will stop spinning if you are not here?" Wang Hao shouted the last sentence directly at Yumaken, with a look of disdain on his face.

Yumaken ignored him.

Wang Hao calmed down and took out a small object made of yellow cloth from his arms and carefully touched it. It looked like an amulet or something like that.

Chen Shu threw a piece of firewood into the bonfire, and the flames suddenly became strong. The dusk-colored firelight illuminated the silent three people, flickering.

The night is very deep.
