Xingnian Tea House

Just as Lin Nanyue was about to leave, he saw a black object floating on the empty lake.Then a figure surfaced silently and flew towards him.

Lin Nanyue couldn't help heaving a sigh of relief when he saw the figure clearly, and fixed his eyes on Qiao Xingnian, fearing that this person would disappear again in the blink of an eye.

Qiao Xingnian returned to the shore and said with a smile, "Captain Lin, fortunately, I have found the body."

"Why did it take you so long to come back? Are you in trouble? Are you injured?"

Lin Nanyue didn't care about the corpse, but asked about Qiao Xingnian's condition.

Qiao Xingnian was taken aback by the successive questions, but he soon came back to his senses, the smile in his eyes deepened, and he said, "I encountered a little trouble, but it has been resolved. Team Lin doesn't have to worry."

Lin Nanyue looked at Qiao Xingnian, was silent for a while, and said, "You are always helping me these days, but I can't help you with your affairs, sorry."

"Team Lin, why do you say that? The fact is that you have been helping me!" Seeing that Lin Nanyue was silent, Qiao Xingnian continued, "For example, in Tao Hui's case, I was only providing ideas for solving the case, and the real investigation of clues is You, without your hard work, it would be impossible for me alone to make the case clear so quickly."

Lin Nanyue stared blankly at Qiao Xingnian. Ever since he saw Qiao Xingnian's ability, Lin Nanyue, who had always been self-confident, was inevitably hit hard.Hearing Qiao Xingnian say this now, the feeling of being recognized was so strong that his nose felt a little sore.

"Team Lin, don't forget that we are partners, we help each other, but the division of labor is different."

Lin Nanyue took a deep breath and said, "You are right, we are partners."

"The corpse is over there. In order to prevent accidents, Team Lin should hurry up and let the salvage team come over."

"Okay, I'll call them right now."

Taking advantage of Lin Nanyue's time to make a phone call, Qiao Xingnian went to the dense forest and found Tao Hui who was huddled inside.

"Boss, you are finally back!"

As soon as Tao Hui saw Qiao Xingnian, he rushed towards Qiao Xingnian excitedly, and then went straight through his body.

"Okay, okay, I have to put you in the bell quickly, otherwise your soul power will continue to be depleted."

"Yeah, thank you boss."

Qiao Xingnian put Tao Hui into the bell, turned around and came to Lin Nanyue's side.

Lin Nanyue asked bluntly: "Can you tell me what happened last night?"

Qiao Xingnian pondered for a while, and said: "Yesterday, Liu Man and I were plotted against, and we almost couldn't come back. Fortunately, I have the soul-repressing bell, so I escaped the disaster."

"Tricked against?" Lin Nanyue frowned, the worry in his eyes was obvious.

Qiao Xingnian nodded and said, "Team Lin, to tell you the truth, I always feel that whether it's Tao Hui's case or Liu Man's case, there are people behind the scenes who are in charge, and the purpose... should be me."

"Are you saying that the people behind the scenes led these murders in order to deal with you?"

"No." Qiao Xingnian smiled and said, "The sequence is wrong. It's not that he created the murder cases to deal with me, but these cases existed in themselves, but the people behind the scenes used my identity to implicate me in it." .”

"Then how can they raise ghosts, and where did they get the corpse-suppressing charm?"

"The people behind the scenes are helping them. He should not be directly involved in the killing."

Lin Nanyue frowned, and said, "Even if you don't participate directly, as long as you help the murderer, you are an accomplice."

"Team Lin is right." Qiao Xingnian nodded in agreement, and said, "But he just gave Feng Yu a jar and a few spells, and it might be free of charge. What crime can you convict him?"

Ordinary people do not believe in the existence of ghosts and gods. If they say that someone is using ghosts to kill people, they will definitely regard him as crazy.

"Are we just sitting idly by because of this?"

"I didn't say nothing. It's just that we don't even know who the other party is now, so what can we do with him? The other party is in the dark, but we are in the light, so we can only wait and see. Besides, it is a matter of human life, even if we know that he is leading us by the nose." , and have to keep going.”

Lin Nanyue looked at Qiao Xingnian and couldn't help but worry and said, "If the other party's ultimate goal is you, then your situation...is very dangerous."

"I don't care about myself. I'm dead anyway. What I worry about is the people around me. You are all ordinary people. To him, you can only be lambs waiting to be slaughtered, and fish on the cutting board."

Hearing Qiao Xingnian's indifferent attitude towards his own life and death, Lin Nanyue felt angry for no reason, and said, "You are worried about them, and they are also worried about you. If something happens to you, they will be so sad, don't take it Life and death are so light!"

Sensing Lin Nanyue's emotions, Qiao Xingnian was startled, then raised the corners of his mouth and said, "Team Lin, if you care about people, just say it. There's no need to be so fierce. What if I misunderstand?"

Lin Nanyue's expression froze, and the nameless anger in his heart dissipated because of Qiao Xingnian's words. He looked away uncomfortably, and said, "We are friends and partners. Of course I care about you."

"Thank you." Qiao Xingnian also looked away, looked at the dead body floating on the lake, and said, "Although I have only been a spirit ferryman for only a few years, I have already seen all the warmth and warmth of human beings and all kinds of conditions in the world, so I I'm not very attached to life and death. It's just that if I'm not attached, I won't sit still, after all, there are many people I care about."

Hearing what Qiao Xingnian said, Lin Nanyue instinctively breathed a sigh of relief, and said, "I will help you."

"I know. Because we are friends, partners."

Qiao Xingnian's bright eyes curved like crescent moons when he smiled, very... pretty.

"team leader."

A cry brought Lin Nanyue back to his senses, and he looked away uncomfortably at the approaching car.

When the car came close, Sun Jiajia got out of the car, walked up to Lin Nanyue, and said, "Captain, where is the unknown object you mentioned?"

Lin Nanyue pointed to the direction of the body floating on the lake, Sun Jiajia looked over and said, "Captain, the salvage team's boat has arrived."

Lin Nanyue had already seen the salvage boat approaching from a distance, and it slowly drove towards the corpse.

"Seeing that white bone, what was Yan Feng's reaction?"

"I deny it." Sun Jiajia frowned and said, "Captain, I always feel that Yan Feng is not telling the truth, and seeing his neurotic appearance, he doesn't have mental problems, does he?"

"Installed."

"So the captain is acting with him."

Sun Jiajia suddenly realized that Lin Nanyue's previous behavior was indeed a little abnormal. They were confused, but now they understood what he said.

Lin Nanyue didn't explain it either, after all, they didn't believe it, so they simply made a mistake.

The salvage boat got closer and closer, and finally carried the body onto the boat.After another 10 minutes, the salvage boat docked, and the people on the boat raised their voices and said, "Team Lin, what was recovered was a corpse."

Lin Nanyue nodded and said, "Handle with care and send it to the Forensic Medicine Department."

"Yes, Captain."

"Let's close the team."

Sun Jiajia hesitated for a moment and said, "Captain, we haven't found the corpse Yan Feng mentioned, so should we close the team now?"

"He's lying. We've spent the whole night with him here. We can't waste police force and resources."

Sun Jiajia nodded and said, "Yes, Captain."

Lin Nanyue originally planned to get in the car, but suddenly thought of Qiao Xingnian. When he turned his head to look over, he found that Qiao Xingnian was gone.

Before he could look for it, he heard someone above him saying, "Captain Lin, I'm here."

Lin Nanyue looked up and saw Qiao Xingnian sitting on the roof of the car, looking at him with a smile, and said, "It's been a long time since I went for a ride, sitting on the roof should feel different."

Lin Nanyue hesitated, and said silently, "Be careful."

"Team Lin, don't forget, I'm in the state of a soul now."

Lin Nanyue didn't say any more, just bent over and got into the car.

Lin Nanyue originally wanted to send Qiao Xingnian back to the tea house, but he directly refused. After all, there are still cases to be dealt with, so Lin Nanyue didn't say much, and drove back to the team directly.

Qiao Xingnian found a secluded place and turned into a real entity. He took out his mobile phone and saw that dozens of missed calls were all from Jiang Mohan. He quickly sent them back.

"Stinky boy, it's fine if you don't come home at night, but you don't even answer the phone, what have you been doing?"

Even if he couldn't hear Jiang Mohan's words, Qiao Xingnian could still imagine how distraught he was now.

"I was with Team Lin yesterday, and I left my phone in the store." After Qiao Xingnian explained, he quickly admitted his mistake and said, "Brother, I was wrong, I'm sorry, I made you worry."

"I don't care who you're with, or whether you left your mobile phone in the store, or you don't come home at night, you have to find a way to tell me, do you know how worried I was yesterday."

"I was wrong, brother, I promise I won't be an example, so calm down first."

Looking at the text on the phone, Qiao Xingnian's heart skipped a beat, and he couldn't help but rejoice that he couldn't hear, otherwise his ears would be deafened.

Jiang Mohan paused, and finally vented yesterday's worry and annoyance, saying: "You said this, if there is another time, let's see how I deal with you!"

Qiao Xingnian quickly promised: "If there is a next time, I can punish him however I want."

"Don't buy food at noon, I'll bring it to you."

"Brother, I want to eat sweet and sour pork ribs, and I also want to eat lamb skewers."

Seeing Jiang Mohan's tone softened, Qiao Xingnian immediately pushed his nose up.

Jiang Mohan laughed angrily, and said: "What do I buy, what do you eat, and you make a mistake and tell me the conditions, you are really thick-skinned!"

"Men, it's normal to be thick-skinned. Then what, brother, there are customers in the store, so I'll hang up first."

"That you're busy."

Qiao Xingnian hung up the phone, he couldn't help but heaved a sigh of relief, and secretly cursed the person who plotted against him.

Arriving at the door of the tea house, Qiao Xingnian was about to open the door when he suddenly felt someone approaching behind him. He suddenly turned sideways, took a few steps to the side, and turned to look behind him.I saw two people standing behind me, a middle-aged woman and a middle-aged man.

The two Qiao Xingnian didn't know each other, but judging from their expressions, they should be here to find fault.He asked calmly, "Who are you looking for?"

The two looked Qiao Xingnian up and down, and said, "Are you from this store?"

Qiao Xingnian nodded and said, "Yes, do you have something to do?"

The middle-aged woman asked, "When is your boss coming?"

The two of them obviously misunderstood Qiao Xingnian's identity, and didn't think that such a big shop would be opened by this brat.

Qiao Xingnian raised his eyebrows, and said without hesitation: "What do you want from him, I can convey it to you when he comes."

"We don't need you. We'll wait until he comes. You open the door quickly. We've been standing outside for so long, and we're tired and thirsty. Go in and get us a glass of water." The woman directly used an orderly tone.

Qiao Xingnian looked at the two of them and couldn't help feeling amused. Although she couldn't hear his tone, she could tell from her expression.

"Who are you and why should I listen to you?"

The woman immediately became unhappy when she heard that, and said, "Hey, you little bastard, do you know what it means to respect the old and love the young? How did your parents teach you?"

"I know about respecting the old, but the "old" is worthy of respect, I think you... forget it. "

The man was not happy when he heard it, and said with a gloomy face: "What are you talking about, kid? Believe it or not, I will slap you?"

Qiao Xingnian pointed to the surveillance camera in front of the door, and said: "There are cameras here, if you dare to hit me, I will call the police and send you to the police station, so you can taste what it's like to be in prison."

The two looked up, then looked at each other, and rushed towards Qiao Xingnian.

Qiao Xingnian had already seen that something was wrong with them, so he quickly avoided and distanced himself from the two of them, but did not leave the range that the surveillance cameras could shoot.

Qiao Xingnian took out his mobile phone, dialed Lin Nanyue, and said, "Hello, 110? There are two troublemakers in our store, a man and a woman, come quickly."

Hearing what Qiao Xingnian said, the two stopped unconsciously. They originally wanted to touch porcelain, but Qiao Xingnian's movements were too flexible, and they couldn't catch up at all. They were so tired that they were out of breath. Not enough.

"We didn't touch porcelain, don't talk nonsense!"

"Why don't you want Pengci to chase after me?" Qiao Xingnian said without blushing or panting, "Don't say anything else, anyway, I called the police, so you just think about how to explain it to the police."

"Don't use the police to pressure us. We didn't do anything anyway. We came here today to discuss an explanation with your boss." Seeing the curious gazes from the people around her, the woman's voice suddenly rose a lot.

A sudden flash of light caught Qiao Xingnian's attention. He turned his head to look over, and saw someone in the crowd not far away secretly taking pictures.

"Ask for an explanation, what kind of explanation?"

"Can we talk to you as a waiter? Call your boss quickly and tell him that if he doesn't come again, we will stay here today!"

After speaking, the woman came to the steps in front of the store and sat down.

"Hey, this is a failure to touch porcelain, relying on the old and selling the old to play the rogue."

Qiao Xingnian was not used to them either, so he just said the words.

"You little bastard, don't play tricks on me, hurry up and call your boss, or see how I punish you!"

The man deliberately lowered his voice and looked at Qiao Xingnian fiercely.

Qiao Xingnian ignored the man's threat and said, "I won't fight, what can you do to me?"

"What's the matter? Hehe." The man sneered twice, and said, "Little brat, don't you work here? There are always orders..."

Qiao Xing smiled contemptuously, and said, "Your old arms and legs, you may have a few layers of rust, what can you do to me?"

"You!" The man looked at Qiao Xingnian angrily, and said, "Don't be stubborn, brat, you'll see me then!"

"I'm good-looking in the first place, so I don't need to wait."

Seeing that the man was deflated again and again, the woman said impatiently: "What are you talking about with the brat? If he doesn't open the door, we will wait here. For such a big store, if you open the door a little later, you will lose money. We can afford to wait." , they can't afford to wait."

The man gave Qiao Xingnian a hard look, walked over to the woman and sat down.

Qiao Xingnian looked at the two of them and probably guessed their identities. This was a premeditated affair.Hiding is definitely not enough. If you don’t suppress this kind of rogue and let him know what pain is, he will haunt you forever.

After a while, a police car stopped at the door, and two policemen got out of the car, one of them was Li Chang who had been here two days ago.

Li Chang looked at a man and a woman sitting at the door, walked towards Qiao Xingnian, and said, "Boss Qiao, did you call the police?"

Qiao Xingnian nodded and said, "I called the police. I don't know these two people. They tried to touch porcelain but failed, so they just stayed at the door of my shop, affecting my normal business."

Another policeman whispered something in Li Chang's ear, Li Chang looked back at him and asked, "Are you sure?"

Gao Yuan nodded and said, "Lao Liu and I were the ones who went to his house last time."

After confirming their identities, Li Chang immediately understood what was going on.

The men and women sitting in front of the store saw that the police really came, their faces were tense for a moment, but they didn't mean to let it go.

Li Chang stepped forward, looked at the two and asked, "Are you Hu Jing's parents?"

The two were startled, and the woman nodded and said, "We are. Comrade police, we are just tired from walking, and we are sitting here to rest our feet, but we haven't done anything illegal."

"You're tired, you want to rest and go to another place. It's illegal for you to interfere with other people's normal business." He has been a policeman for so many years, and he has never seen any scoundrels. How can Li Chang not understand what they are thinking.

"Comrade policeman, don't blame anyone. I didn't stop that kid from opening the door. It's because he was lazy and didn't open the door. It has nothing to do with us."

"Your son and daughter have all gone in, and you don't know how to repent. Do you want the family of four to be reunited in prison?"

"Comrade policeman, you can't make false accusations against us. We didn't do anything. If you want to arrest us, you're taking black money, and you're black/police."

When Li Chang heard this, his expression turned ugly, and he said, "Li Caiping, Hu Jiagui, you don't understand the law, so I'll spread the word with you. Slandering the police is also illegal. Even if you are arrested and brought back to the police station, no one can say anything." .”

Li Caiping glanced at Hu Jiagui, and then at the crowd in the distance. Seeing that there were more and more people onlookers, she suddenly grabbed Li Chang's hand, hit her, and then yelled, "Come here, policeman!" Hit someone, come quickly..."

Li Caiping howled and winked desperately at Hu Jiagui. Seeing this, Hu Jiagui hurried over and yelled, "Are you a policeman? You know how to bully us little people and let us live. Old lady, old lady, what are you doing?" Is it? Come on, the police are beating someone!"

Gao Yuan quickly stepped forward to pull people away, and said, "What are you doing, let go, or you will be charged with assaulting the police!"

The reason why Li Caiping dared to do this on the camera was because Li Chang was standing with his back to the camera, which happened to cover Li Caiping and let her take advantage of the loophole.

The onlookers came in without knowing it, and many of them were recording videos with their mobile phones.

"Someone has been beaten, everyone come and comment, the police have beaten someone!"

Li Caiping howled dryly while holding onto Li Chang.

"Hey, the police beat people in front of so many people. Isn't this a violation of the law?"

"It's so blatant, there must be someone above, let's leave it alone and see how lively it is."

"I recorded everything, and I will upload it on the Internet later. I don't believe that the government/government department will ignore it."

"Yes, yes, I also recorded it. Now is the age of Internet information. As long as there is enough pressure from public opinion, the government/government departments cannot ignore it in order to stabilize the hearts of the people."

……

Li Chang was out of breath and said with an ugly face: "Gao Yuan, what about the handcuffs, since they won't let go, they should just handcuff them and take them back to the prison."

"There is no law..."

Li Caiping wanted to howl again when she heard the words, but was interrupted by Qiao Xingnian, saying, "Stop howling, I didn't even cry for a long time. I recorded everything that happened just now. Let's see who is right and who is wrong." It’s clear from the video.”

As Qiao Xingnian spoke, he clicked on the video and released it among the crowd holding it high.

The actions of the two before had already made Qiao Xingnian more vigilant. When Li Chang approached Li Caiping, he secretly adjusted his position and recorded everything that happened just now.

The content of the video clearly recorded the whole incident, and the onlookers immediately understood that they were being used as gunmen.

"These two are rascals. They are obviously fooling us, so we can't just let it go!"

Just now, the person who kept saying that he was going to post the video on the Internet and threatened the government/government to come forward to solve it, seemed to have been slapped twice, and suddenly became angry from embarrassment.

"That's right, that's right, we can't just let it go. Police comrades, they slander the police and obstruct official duties, you arrest them quickly, we will be witnesses!"

"Everyone knows these two people clearly, maybe one day they will be touched like this."

……

Everyone pointed at the two of them, and what they said was not pleasant.

Seeing this, Li Caiping and Hu Jiagui secretly resented.

Li Chang took out the handcuffs from his pocket and said, "Framing and slandering the police and obstructing official duties have violated the "Regulations on Penalties for Public Security Administration." I have the right to arrest you."

Seeing this, Li Caiping howled again and said, "I can't do anything about it. You colluded with the government and businessmen to frame my daughter. Obviously my daughter was bullied, but you arrested her. You are trying to force our family to death." ah!"

The people around fell silent, and then started talking again.

Gao Yuan and Li Chang avoided further riots and wanted to take people away as soon as possible, but it was a pity that Li Caiping and Hu Jiagui were not easy-going lamps. They refused to cooperate and even spoke out to incite the crowd. The good people became interested, and the public opinion once again turned to Li Caiping and Hu Jiagui.

"Comrade police, since they are calling for injustice, and you are also calling for injustice, why don't you explain the matter clearly in front of everyone here. The more you want to take people away, the more we will feel guilty in our hearts. If it is true what he said ..."

The good person opened his mouth, and the video in his hand was still being recorded.

"That's right, if there's something to talk about, why are you covering it up?"

Others followed suit.

Seeing that the situation was out of control, Li Chang used the walkie-talkie to report to his superiors, asking for support.

"If you have anything to do, go to the police station and say, if you refuse to cooperate, you will be arrested."

"If we don't go, it's reasonable to go and it becomes unreasonable. We just want to ask for an explanation."

Li Chang wanted to say more, but Qiao Xingnian stopped him and said, "Comrade police, since they don't want face, then we don't need to cover it up for them, so let's talk about it."

"But……"

"It's okay, I'm not afraid of the shadow slanting when I'm upright."

Qiao Xingnian glanced at everyone, and said: "Besides, this is the Internet information age. Everyone has a mobile phone and can type on the keyboard and edit videos. The more powerful you are at this time, the more disadvantaged you will be. If someone uploads the edited video out of context, It's us who are in trouble."

In Qiao Xingnian's words, there are those troublemakers who are afraid of chaos in the world.

The two people who spoke before frowned slightly, but they couldn't say anything for a while, because if they objected, they would take the initiative to put themselves in the row of keyboard warriors.

Li Chang glanced at the crowd and said, "That's fine."

Qiao Xingnian turned to look at Li Caiping and Hu Jiagui, and said bluntly: "You said someone bullied your daughter, who bullied and how?"
