Crime Hunt Files: Bloody Angel

Three days after Zhu Yiwen left the office, Bai Ji'an and He Wei did not receive any news about her.

On the first day, He Wei had nothing to do and followed Tan Jie to learn cooking skills for a day.

He planned to wait until everything was over, then move to a new house by the sea with Bai Ji'an and live a good life.

He can no longer live alone like he did before, either ordering takeout or getting bread and milk.

Bai Ji'an's family was well off and he had never suffered any crime since he was a child. It was even more impossible to follow him in the future.

Tan Jie opened the lid of the pot and looked at the perfect and fragrant sweet and sour crispy fish inside. He was surprised and said: "Captain He, it turns out you can cook?"

Howie shrugged: "Not before."

"How long ago was it?"

"...three months?"

"what?"

Tan Jie made a simple calculation and found that it was during the Chinese New Year.

He lowered his head and glanced at the home-cooked dish that was about to be completed, and sighed. It was indeed not easy to make a perfect fish without any assistance.

If the soup tastes delicious and doesn't have any fishy taste, then the good job he finally found will really be replaced by Captain He.

He Wei looked at his work with great satisfaction, and he was looking forward to Bai Ji'an's expression when he took the first bite.

After he handed over the work of setting and serving the dishes to Tan Jie, he walked towards the second floor happily.

Bai Ji'an sat in the study, holding his chin with one hand, staring blankly at the new house decoration design that was gradually taking shape on the computer screen.

Suddenly, the mobile phone in his hand flashed. Bai Ji'an lowered his eyes and glanced at the encrypted number at the top of the screen, and gently pressed the earphone with his index finger.

"explain."

"I'm in contact with her. Ji An, you guessed it right. Compared with the information of two of the four major groups, she is more satisfied with the conditions I offered."

"In that case, why hasn't she promised you yet?"

"It's normal. If a person has been a ghost for a long time, it will be difficult for him to be a human again."

Bai Ji'an smiled softly, and just when he was about to praise "J of Hearts" for its humor, He Wei's footsteps sounded on the stairs.

Bai Ji'an was stunned for a moment, then he remained calm and said lightly: "Keep doing it and let me know the results when you get it."

After finishing speaking, he took off the earphones and held them in his hands, raised his head and smiled at He Wei.

"Is the meal ready?" Bai Ji'an touched his stomach, "I'm a little hungry."

Howie sat next to him and covered his hand pretending to be serious, "Let me touch it too."

"Ouch!" Bai Ji'an slapped his hand away, "Tan Jie is still downstairs!"

This happens every time I go downstairs to eat with him.

"How about I install a walkie-talkie for you next time? Call me when the meal is ready. Don't come up."

"Huh?" He Wei raised his head, held Bai Ji'an's face with both hands, and said, "What are you going to do? If you don't want me to come up, I will!"

"Good good."

He Wei was childish and played like a donkey, and Bai Ji'an could only pamper him.

"I take back what I said before, you can come on whenever you want, that's all."

He Wei smiled with satisfaction, "That's pretty much it."

Bai Ji'an held the mouse and enlarged the 3D house decoration design drawing on the screen to full screen.

"I made some small modifications based on our discussion last night. Please see if there is anything you are not satisfied with and need me to redo."

In front of He Wei, he put the earphones back into the earphone compartment without covering up.

He knew that with his insight, even Catharina might not be able to escape.

Might as well act like everything is normal.

At least he was listening to music until the Jack of Hearts called.

"What is this?" He Wei enlarged the drawing to a certain place, "I've never seen it before."

"Of course you haven't seen it, because it looked like this two hours ago." Bai Ji'an found the original picture from last night on his phone and handed it to him.

He Wei looked at the originally scheduled bathroom on the screen, then looked at the already unrecognizable bathroom on the computer, and said in surprise: "You want to change the bathroom into a swimming pool?"

Bai Ji'an shook his head regretfully.

He would rather change it to a swimming pool.

It's just that their new home is a 400-square-meter split-level house, and there's no suitable place for a swimming pool.

"Then what is this?"

Howie pointed to the oversized square in the middle until Bai Ji'an said, "That's a bathtub."

"Ah?!" He Wei couldn't believe it, "But our bathroom is thirty square meters, and your tank takes up one-third."

"Anyway, our house has a lot of space, so I turned it into a smart hot spring pool, and the windows next to it are floor-to-ceiling and can be opened completely. The opposite side is the sea. And here!"

The more Bai Ji'an talked, the more excited he became, and he took He Wei to introduce several rooms that he had carefully designed.

He had never heard of many fully intelligent systems, and Bai Ji'an had already found all the reliable brands and analyzed and compared them.

List the pros and cons separately, make a document, spread it out in front of him, and let him make the final decision.

He Wei chose, and Bai Ji'an ticked the box behind his decision.

It wasn't until the last item that He Wei finally couldn't stand it any longer.

"what is this?"

Bai Ji'an blinked. He thought he wrote clearly: "Housework robot."

He Wei shook his head: "We can't have this."

"why?"

He didn't like strangers coming to his home, he didn't want to hire part-time workers, and he didn't want He and Howie to clean up such a big house.

He Wei pointed at the screen, turned to look at Bai Ji'an and said, "Because his appearance is too human-like."

It always felt awkward that there was a third person living in his and Bai Ji'an's home.

"But……"

Seeing Bai Ji'an pouting, He Wei understood immediately.

He took Bai Ji'an's hand resignedly, stood up and said, "I will do the housework."

"The house is very big."

"I know."

"There will be a lot of housework."

"It's not hard to imagine."

"I really don't like working."

"You don't have to do it."

After thinking about it again and again, Bai Ji'an suddenly let go of He Wei's hand and rummaged through the previous page of bathroom pictures.

"Otherwise, I'd better change it back. A regular bathtub would be easier to clean."

"No." He Wei took the mouse away and put it back in place. He held Bai Ji'an's hand and said seriously, "I like your design very much."

Even if he gets tired when cleaning, as long as Bai Ji'an is satisfied, he feels it's worth it.

"Okay." He Wei took Bai Ji'an out of the study, "I came up to ask you to go to dinner. If we chat for a while, my debut will be all over."

This was his first time cooking fish, and he brought it back alive after meeting Wei Zhiyang, an old acquaintance from the Mermaid Princess case, at Panlongjiang Fish Market in the morning.

At the dining table, He Wei and Tan Jie remained motionless as if they were being tapped. Only their eyes seemed to be glued to Bai Ji'an's hands, staring at him as he sandwiched the tender and juicy fish and dipped it in the orange-red soup.

Until Bai Ji'an's entrance, the two of them were like rookies participating in a chef competition watching the senior judges taste their own dishes, too nervous to take a breath.

"good to eat!"

From Tan Jie to He Wei, Bai Ji'an's eyes shined.

"It's really delicious, on par with the fish Tan Jie made last time."

It’s true that some people are happy and some are sad.

Tan Jie sighed silently. If Mr. Bai didn't plan to open the business again, he would really have no use for him.

Suddenly, he really wanted to carry a corpse...even one.
