Introduction to the work A plate of red meat, two disappeared bodies, and sixteen numbers soaked in formalin. The first summer when programmer Chen Yu and his girlfriend Lin Wan moved into the old town of Hankou, their enthusiastic neighbor next door, Uncle Zhang, brought over a bowl of pork ribs and lotus root soup. "Young people have just moved, eat it while it's hot." For the next six months, they went to Uncle Zhang's house for dinner every week. They ate deliciously. Until Chen Yu disappeared in the company's underground garage, his WeChat message still reported that he was safe that night. Lin Wan fell asleep after drinking a bowl of porridge and never woke up again. Until the police found sixteen human organ specimens in the basement of Uncle Zhang's house, and each jar was labeled with a number. No.47-B. ——That number corresponds to Lin Wan. But all evidence disappeared before him. There was no blood on the operating table that had been sprayed with luminol. The bone fragments dug up in the flowerbed were the bodies of German shepherds. The medical kit was empty. He has eight Area 1 papers, he has a PhD from Cambridge, and his daughter is still waiting for him to come home. "You have no evidence." He said, "The only thing you can sentence me to now is intentional injury." Seven people, four months, and a chain of evidence was cleared to the last link. Ren Ning, a newcomer to the criminal investigation detachment, stood in the basement, facing sixteen empty jars and a note. The note read: "I emptied it. From a complete body to the last drop of water to rinse the jar." Gavel down, intentional injury, four years. The disappearance case is still under investigation. ——
