Solve a case, cook a meal, talk about love
Work related
Take a break, why is your complexion so bad, you eat spicy food again? "
It was clear that the other party had put aside the topic just now and did not want to continue talking. Lin Chen could not continue to ask, so he only signaled Xiao Zhao to hand over the lighter he found to Xiao Liu, and nodded to her to indicate that he understood and wanted to leave: "Then leave it to is you."
When leaving, Xiao Zhao said that he still wanted to learn from him, and he didn't drag him away. He couldn't be restricted from learning other people's case-handling methods just because he was his apprentice.But regarding the phone call just now, doubts are not without doubts. Is it a bit of a fuss to ask the chief to dispatch troops in person for an explosion that may be an accident? As for the new colleague, he is even more incompatible with them. The ones from the center are naturally with the eyes higher than the top.
Rubbing between the eyebrows, the city is cool after the rain, and the wind blowing on the face drives away a little sleepiness.It was already late at Su Wen's house, and Su Wen was still sitting in the living room waiting. Hearing Lin Chen's knock on the door, he hurriedly stood up and opened the door, and raised his hand to touch Lin Chen's face.
"It's cold outside, your face is frozen, I'll warm you a bowl of ginger soup to drive away the cold."
This is full of An Ning's sense of sight.
Lin Chen gently pushed Su Wen away and shook his head. Seeing Su Wen's stunned expression, he said: "You don't need to learn from her, you are different from her. She does take care of people, but she is definitely not this kind of kind Concern, I will feel unaccustomed to you like this, it’s getting late, you go to bed first, I’ll cook a pot and drink it myself.”
He took off his coat and put it on the hanger, carefully wiped the dusty soles of his shoes before stepping into the house.
"Where is your brown sugar?"
Su Wen bit her lips and remained silent. She firmly believed that Lin Chen's interest in Xie Anning was just a novelty, because she had never met such a woman before. What Zhang Ailing said roughly meant the same thing. The red roses at the beginning were as gorgeous as cinnabar in the heart. Moles, in the end, get tired of looking at them, and they are nothing more than mediocre mosquito blood clinging to the wall.
Don't you just know how to serve people, Su Wen secretly sneered.But still tired of the expression on Lin Chen's brows when he mentioned Xie Anning, Su Wen said: "Nothing I do is good in your eyes, but whatever she does is good in your eyes, even if she cares about you Am I learning from her?"
Lin Chen raised her eyelids to look at Su Wen, she didn't have the strength to entangle Su Wen on this issue now.
"It's getting late, you go to bed."
Su Wen turned around and made a gesture to leave, but suddenly turned his head again.
"Brother Cheng called me today."
Lin Chen finally raised his head to stare at Su Wen, and hurriedly asked, "Is it about drugs?"
"I think you've got drugs in your head!" Su Wen tilted his head and smiled, and said after a while: "He said he was a little interested in me, and said that if I followed him, I could get any good stuff. "
"Lin Chen, do you need me to help you to this point? If you say yes, I will go to him even if I don't want to."
Sure enough, Lin Chen frowned deeply again, and sighed softly: "No, it's not safe, I have no right to let you do this."
"I want to give you everything, but I have nothing, so I can only help you in this way. If you need it, I can really do anything..." Su Wen stepped forward to hug Lin Chen, but was caught The other party took a step back to avoid it, only took a deep look at Lin Chen, and turned into the bedroom and closed the door.
She can really do for Lin Chen everything that Lin Chen is willing to ask her to do, and she also understands that Lin Chen will not push her into danger.Now she can make Lin Chen feel guilty, and when the time is up, she will try to develop.
But she also couldn't bear Lin Chen's deliberate alienation, as if she had a family.Doesn't she, Lin Chen, understand that the other party is a straight person? !
It's not so easy to break a bend, not to mention straight people change their minds faster, and they just play more!Now that Lin Chen is so [-]% invested, she will be the one who can't stand up when the time comes!Why doesn't she understand!
……
Lin Chen didn't sleep well that night, and he felt faintly that something happened, so he called Ruan Beibei after thinking for a while.She also knew that Ruan Beibei and Xie Anning were having an argument, but after all, they were friends for many years, and Jiang Jie had never disturbed Ruan Beibei's life for a long time, no matter how big the anger was, it was time to calm down.
"Hey?"
Lin Chen cleared his throat, recalling Xie Anning's pale face when he left, and still worried: "Is Ruan Beibei?"
"What's wrong with Xie Anning?" Lin Chen never went to the Three Treasures Hall for nothing, and Ruan Beibei knew in her heart, don't let the police force Xie Anning to make her follow behind to clean up the mess, her love life is still in tatters A bunch of them.
"She...I haven't been home for the past few days. I have something to do at work. I just want you to accompany Xie Anning. Don't leave her alone. You also know her little problem. She likes to think wildly when she is alone."
Ruan Beibei thought for a moment and didn't ask any more questions: "Well, text me your home address."
Lin Chen responded, sent a text message and fell asleep, only to wake up in a trance the next morning.He picked up his phone and wanted to read Ruan Beibei's reply, but unexpectedly received a call from another colleague. Lin Chen wondered if something had happened again.
Sure enough, the voice on the other end of the phone was urgent.
"There's a murder case."
After being a policeman for so many years, Lin Chenzao was extremely sensitive to the word murder. Hearing this, he said immediately: "Tell me where the crime happened, and I'll rush over there right away, um...okay, I'll go over right away."
From the simple words of the other party, I roughly understood that it was a case with extremely cruel modus operandi, and it seemed to involve a case of my master more than ten years ago.
One after another, major events appeared one after another as if they had been agreed upon. The most frightening thing was the feeling of powerlessness.Lin Chen hurried to the scene after washing briefly. If she can solve this case, it will be the best gift for her master.
As soon as he entered the scene, he was distracted by the climax of music.
— "Ah! You're going to take my kiss on your mouth at last, John. Good! I'll kiss you now."
Lin Chen was taken aback. Although it was in English, she vaguely remembered that it was a line in a certain drama, and she had seen related movies.
— "I'm going to kiss your mouth now...but why don't you look at me, John? Nothing in this world can compare to your red lips."
——"Why don't you look at me. As long as you see me, you will definitely fall in love with me!"
The voice became sharper and sharper, like a wordless sigh suppressed to the limit in the deep valley, finally breaking through the throat and making a hoarse voice, the voice became more and more urgent, how much backlog of gloom burst out in this voice!
- "Why don't you look at me!"
Lin Chen turned his head, but saw the victim in a horrific death.
☆, heart like ashes (don't buy after reading it)
The victim was lying on the coffee table with his limbs stretched out, but what was really frightening was the shock brought by the silent corpse under the increasingly intense human voices.
The neck seems to have been repeatedly cut by blunt knives, leaving deep bone scars and blurred flesh and blood. Looking up, the face is smeared with blood so that the original face cannot be seen clearly. There should be a pair of eyes There is nothing in the place, only two dark hollows, and a line of extremely sad blood flow, the pair of missing eyeballs are like gemstones that are connected to the rope and hung on the chest.
It was still early in the morning, and there were not many policemen at the scene, and the voice of Salome, who had killed her loved one, was still muttering to her ears. Down below, it looks like a picture carefully painted with cinnabar.
Lin Chen subconsciously looked away from the victim, but suddenly heard the sound from the player.
——“I want to use my teeth to kiss you like biting a piece of fruit.”
- "Why don't you look at me!"
— "Ah! Why don't you look at me, John? What shall I do now, John?"
I was startled subconsciously, because the full of sorrow and helplessness seemed to come from the mouth of the victim, as if to say why I should be stingy with your eyes after such a miserable death.Lin Chen slowed down, and after calming down, he bent down and carefully searched for evidence at the scene.
The death time of the deceased should not be long, there is no rigor phenomenon yet, and there is still a faint smell of blood floating in the room.
After many days of depression and facing death several times, Lin Chen felt that he was a little numb at that time, half kneeling □ and carefully looking for fingerprints and unusual places.
He couldn't help turning his head to look at the deceased. Indeed, to die in such a heroic manner, he was really not afraid that his eyes would be taken away from him.Even if it is terrifying, people's curiosity always drives people to peek carefully, but even if they are longing for the eyes of others, they should not use this method, fearing that the murderer's way of thinking is also different from ordinary people.
Salome was originally a character in the Bible, and was endowed with a coquettish and dark personality by Wilde in his works.
People praise her as a narcissus, but they don't know that she is a poppy that blooms beautifully. After asking for nothing, she does not hesitate to use the death of her lover to fulfill her abnormal love.
The legendary Salome is extremely beautiful, but she can only sadly say to John, why don't you look at me?
Using such a strange method to murder the victim, Lin Chen couldn't imagine the logic of the murderer's thinking for a while, but the voice in his ear continued, and it seemed to be looping again.
Not sure if this killer was the one her master met back then, Lin Chen went back to the police station and went to the file room to look at the documents, and found that the description on it was the same as what he encountered now, the neck was also cut open, The eyes were gouged out and used as necklaces.The master recorded in it that the neck is the softest part of the human body, and it is also the most fatal part. The eyeballs are also soft, and the murderer has a tendency to abuse the weak.
The audio of Salome's opera was also specially played at the scene to attract attention, and it may be related to it.Lin Chen yawned tiredly, it was almost lunch break, he wanted to call Xie Anning to talk, but when he turned on the phone, there were several missed calls from Ruan Beibei.
Some people dialed the phone curiously, and Ruan Beibei's voice came over in a hurry: "Are you sure Xie Anning is at home? I went to your house and took the key and opened the door as you said. There is no one in the house. She doesn't have the two potted flowers, grooming tools, clothes and shoes, where is she now?"
"You mean Xie Anning is gone?" Lin Chen was surprised.
These few days because of being too busy, she seldom thought of Xie Anning, so she naturally ignored her feelings, but she never thought that Xie Anning would leave.
Why leave?
The question lingered in Lin Chen's mind, and he called to ask, but the other party's phone was in the middle of a call, and when he called after a while, he was still in the middle of the call. After countless attempts, he finally realized that he might already be in the other party's blacklist.He walked out of the office and asked other people to borrow a phone, and typed the familiar phone number on the screen with his fingertips.
Xie Anning's voice sounded from the other end, Lin Chen only uttered one syllable before he could speak, the other party hastily hung up the phone.I don't know how many people's mobile phones have been borrowed. Finally, no one's mobile phone can be dialed. Maybe Xie Anning took the trouble to set up a white list directly.
Lin Chen stared blankly at the phone in his hand, a little dazed by Xie Anning's sudden indifference.Anxiety, the uncontrollable uneasiness that grows from the bottom of my heart is like vines entrenched in my heart, feared by love, arousing unspeakable fear.
It was as if something was readily available, but was sent away by himself.
Lin Chen had a faint headache. She seemed to have walked through a bottleneck or a dead end in her life, as if what she once owned did not belong to her overnight.Countless troubles and annoyances piled up in front of him, but his most important person ran away from home at this time, Lin Chen complained for a moment about his deception to Xie Anning and Xie Anning's impulsiveness.
Maybe, Xie Anning just couldn't figure it out for a while, and would come back, just like last time.Although he comforted himself like this, he didn't feel any better.Ruyi and Yuanbao's going or staying can prove Xie Anning's determination. She still left Ruyi Yuanbao to take care of her when she was so tense last time, it was not so chic this time.
But in the end, why?
Sitting in the room, Xie Anning lowered her head and stared blankly at the phone in her hand, and suddenly burst out laughing.It's been so long, and now she realizes that she has left, and that's just the amount of left.She originally wanted to leave and wait until she calmed down before having an interview with Lin Chen, but she found that everything was because she thought too well.
It is not without reason that evasion has become people's choice again and again. It is indeed more comfortable to escape than to face it directly.What if she appeared in front of Lin Chen and really heard the news of Lin Chen and Su Wen's resurgence?
She received a call from Su Wen last night. She was already extremely disgusted to hear Su Wen's voice, but she still clicked to answer it.
"Xie Anning, are you asleep?"
Xie Anning twitched the corners of her lips and mocked: "Thanks to you, I can't sleep."
As if hearing Xie Anning's mocking tone for the first time, Su Wen was silent for a moment on the other end of the phone, and laughed loudly: "I thought that a good old man like you wouldn't talk like that."
"Then what should I say? Ask if you have taken care of Lin Chen's basic necessities, and whether your love life is going well?"
"Isn't it? Lin Chen likes you for that." Su Wen lowered his head and fiddled with his fingers, and said softly: "I'm afraid that Lin Chen will leave your service, I'm not used to it."
It's not taking care, it's serving.
It turned out that the thoughtful care that has been taking care of her all this time has dropped a word that is no different from describing a servant.
Xie Anning, you are so cheap, really.
I thought that I could manage this relationship well with Lin Chen, but it turned out to be just wishful thinking.It was just more than a year ago that Lin Chen was still saying that I would wait until you could accept me, but what about now?Let someone's ex-girlfriend or current girlfriend humiliate you!
Xie Anning's throat was astringent, and he could clearly hear the words he spit out word by word.
"Please tell Lin Chen, if you must live together, you might as well move to Lin Chen's own house, and don't hide from me, anyway... I have already moved away. As for serving..." Xie Anning took a breath, pointed her nose Slightly sour: "I resigned."
Su Wen didn't seem to notice Xie Anning's emotions, and continued: "You moved away, Lin Chen doesn't know yet, right?"
"do not know."
"Xie Anning... Sometimes I really feel that you are so considerate, so thank you for your understanding."
Xie Anning held the phone and did not answer for a long time.
Su Wen put an end to this not-so-pleasant conversation, and said in a slightly smiling voice, "Lin Chen will miss you."
Oh, Lin Chen will miss you?
Xie Anning repeated it silently in her heart, and finally couldn't help but smile wryly.
She will miss me.
☆, the peak is difficult to climb (inverted V read do not buy)
It wasn't until Lin Chen hurried back that he realized why Ruan Beibei called him directly to ask where Xie Anning had gone. The home that was filled with things seemed to be empty all of a sudden, and the vibrant plants on the window sills disappeared. The inexplicable little books that Xie Anning read after dinner that were usually on the table were gone, and she subconsciously went to the back room. Everything that originally belonged to Xie Anning disappeared completely, as if this person had never lived in her home.
Lin Chen leaned against the door and paused. Even though she didn't believe it before, now that she saw this, she knew that Xie Anning had left.Maybe it's because I figured it out when I don't have myself. After all, it's better for a straight person to live in the sun, or maybe I'm tired of the ambiguity between two people who seem to cross the line occasionally.Lin Chen frowned, she could only think of these things, whatever it was, Xie Anning had already left but it had already become a fact.
He raised his phone and sent a text message to Xie An Ning while suppressing his anger. After a while, he suddenly came back to see what he had typed on the phone.
——Are you still learning to run away from home?
Shaking her head somewhat self-deprecatingly, why should she talk to Xie Anning in such a tone.
Straight people are after all a peak that is within reach but hard to see.
However, Lin Chen was not Xie Anning after all, he sat quietly on the bed in Xie Anning's bedroom for a while, and finally made up his mind to go to Xie Anning's company to find her.
At the beginning, I made up my mind to live with Xie Anning. It didn't make sense that once Xie Anning disappeared, Lin Chen would have to cry and accept her fate. When Lin Chen was 27 and about to be three years old, in fact, he had lost his love. The longing for love, and now I prefer what the ancients said, wishing to be alone.
How long is the road to life, and how difficult it is to win a person's heart forever.
Sitting on the bed in the bedroom, Lin Chen had an idea, and somehow made himself laugh.
Ruan Beibei just turned back from the outside, and just happened to see Lin Chen sitting on the bed silly and happy, and immediately got angry: "Hey, you are happy that Xie Anning is gone, aren't you?"
Lin Chen hurriedly shook his head.
"I think too much..." Just as I was about to explain, I saw Ruan Beibei's expression became more and more angry, and hurriedly said: "No, I just suddenly thought that thanks to An Ning, the good man will have a safe life..."
Ruan Beibei felt even more dumbfounded at the moment.
"I said that you and Xie Anning are not normal people, no wonder you can be together. You two think less about things all day long, how much less things do you have between you?" After a pause, he said: "I just I called Xie Anning, but she didn't answer my call, so don't be too happy, what happened between you and Xie Anning?"
Lin Chen thought for a moment, then raised his eyes blankly: "I guess I've been busy with work these days and didn't go home?"
"Have you been home for a few days?"
"Three or four days..."
Ruan Beibei's original bad temper became more and more apparent, and she laughed back angrily: "That is to say, you don't even know that Xie Anning has been gone for a few days, right?! Police officer Lin, you are busy enough, you can't sleep twice for three days Home, it's silly for people to run away now. I think Xie Anning is walking right, she was with you only after her head was smashed. "
Lin Chen listened to Ruan Beibei's lecture, as if he finally thought of the reason for Xie Anning's departure, and it suddenly dawned on him.
"I'll go to her unit to find her."
Ruan Beibei raised her hand to stop Lin Chen, and then took a look at her: "I think you've been busy lately, if Xie Anning made you unhappy, you ran away, and finally Xie Anning went to the police station to look for you as if nothing happened. Can you see her?"
"what do you mean?"
Ruan Beibei thought for a moment, then said: "I'll go to Xie Anning and ask, you wait for my news first."
Lin Chen had no choice but to agree, looking down at his watch, the lunch break time had passed, so he had to rush back to the police station first.
Xiao Zhao stayed in the office at noon and compared the current crime scene with the previous file in his hand. When he saw Lin Chen coming, he raised his hand and beckoned Lin Chen to come over. He frowned and asked, "Who do you think the crime is?" Are you alone?"
Seeing Lin Chen nod his head, he stroked his chin again, and stroked the non-existent beard.
"Is it possible that it is a copycat crime? Look here." He raised his hand and pointed at the victim's death at the scene, and finally his fingertips rested on the victim's neck: "The knife wound on the victim's neck in the previous case Neat, although the bone is also visible, it is not like the victim that happened now, the wound on the neck seemed to be repeatedly cut by a blunt knife, and finally this irregular wound appeared."
After Master Lin Chen took over this case, a total of three cases like this happened, and the murderer was not afraid of being traced by the police.After the death of Master Lin Chen, although the murderer was not brought to justice, it never happened again.
"And you see, the imitator also added new ideas to this case. In the case a few years ago, the victim's lips were cut off, and in this case, the eyeballs were gouged out and strung on a necklace."
Lin Chen had something in his heart, looked at the picture a little casually, and then said: "Or it can be understood in combination with Salome's story. The previous incidents came from Salome's longing for her lover's red lips, but now this one is For the despair that your lover never looks at you?"
"Master, are you serious? Could there be such a literary killer? I think he played that opera just to confuse the police, divert the police's investigation direction to the opera, and think about complicated things."
Lin Chen did not actively discuss with Xiao Zhao as before, and intuitively told her that the reason why Xie Anning moved out was not that simple, but she really couldn't think of other reasons for Xie Anning to leave besides those reasons.
Could it be that you are going back to your mother's house?
Xiao Zhao didn't notice that Lin Chen was distracted, and his whole attention was on his guess.
"Maybe it's just an ordinary love killing. I learned the previous serial murders as a gimmick to get rid of the suspicion. We can find clues from the person who had conflicts with the victim, maybe it's better than stopping at the opera study."
Looking up, he saw Lin Chen staring intently at his water glass with his chin resting on his hands.
"Master! Do you know what it means to go to work? If you let that powerful person from the central government see you, you might be arranged in front of the chief!"
Only then did Lin Chen come back to his senses, and just now he was in a trance and only heard half of what Xiao Zhao said, and looked at Xiao Zhao in a daze.She was also really exhausted, and there was a faint layer of bruise floating on her eyelids, and she could tell at a glance that she didn't sleep well at night.
Xiao Zhao had no choice but to say his thoughts again, and Lin Chen said wearily: "According to your opinion, you have brought back the person you think is suspicious, right?"
Xiao Zhao chuckled: "This is our routine for handling cases. People have already brought them here, but they are not suspects. They are just called here to ask about the situation and make notes. Master, how are you? Come with me? "
"Success, I'll be jury."
Lin Chen thought for a moment before answering.
It seemed that he hadn't been in the interrogation room for a long time. Seeing the person talking to the police with warm boiled water in front of him, Lin Chen felt a little like a lifetime ago.I always feel that there are more cases, but it is not as fulfilling as before, because no matter how busy I was in the police station before, there was always Xie Anning waiting at home, so I could sit together, eat and talk.
Sometimes I am too tired, watching TV and falling asleep on the sofa. After a short nap, when I open my eyes, I can see Xie Anning reading a book under the dim lamp, as if seeing her for the first time When the light fell on Xie Anning's side face, even the eyelashes were blurred into a soft ball.
So he fell asleep again in a daze, as if the world only needed you to sleep peacefully, and someone would always accompany you.
Pulling back to his senses, Xiao Zhao has already started to ask questions.
The other party was the victim's uncle, and the victim's parents were involved in an accident in the early years, which is surprisingly similar to Lin Chen.The man's face was not very good-looking, he just coughed lightly and cleared his throat: "After her parents died, the custody was handed over to me. I divorced early, and I didn't leave a trace of incense, so I always regarded her as my own." She is raised like a daughter. But maybe because she lost her parents, she has always been a bit introverted, and she is not a particularly outstanding person. No matter how I think about it, I never thought why she encountered such a thing..." Covering her face Some pain.
Xiao Zhao thought for a while and asked, "Has anyone had any grudges with the victim?"
"No, she has always been very good."
"But you're not sure, are you?"
The man picked up the hot water cup and took a sip, his hands trembling slightly.
"I remembered, there is a person..."
"what?"
☆、Freezing point
Hearing a question from the policeman on the opposite side, the man hadn't talked to the policeman much, he swallowed his saliva and raised his eyes to glance at Xiao Zhao, then picked up his teacup and took a sip of water nervously.This action caused Lin Chen to subconsciously look around at the man's appearance. It can be seen that the man is not young anymore, and the few white hairs on the sideburns are not too conspicuous. with.
After all, it was a child raised by a daughter, who died so badly, how could she not cry,
The man's voice seemed to be trying his best to keep calm, but he still couldn't help trembling, "She has a male classmate who has been chasing her, and she hasn't agreed to it. He must be asking for it, so he remembered such a thing!"
Lin Chen was noncommittal, and only lowered his eyebrows to write down this more important testimony.
Xiao Zhao was clearly interested in this case, and the questions became more and more detailed. Lin Chen was still listening carefully at first, and occasionally nodded his head in approval to encourage Xiao Zhao to continue asking. To an early morning more than a year ago.As soon as I opened my eyes, I saw the person sitting in front of me. Although I was full of depression, when I thought of that scene, there was no haze in my heart.
Probably because the sun was too good that day.
Sighing silently in my heart, I was stunned, and an imperceptible sense of loss passed between my brows and eyes.
Xiao Zhao had almost finished asking, stood up and politely thanked the man for his cooperation, and the man stood up and left.Turning around, I saw Lin Chen staring at the place at hand, apparently in a daze, couldn't help but raised his hand and patted Lin Chen.
"Master, you look like that young woman in spring with worried brows, don't you be let down by a heartless man." He raised his fingertips in a cheap way, and put on the appearance of a young woman covering her face. The ten-year-old boy made that action indescribably funny, and choked out the libretto of Du Shiniang's anger sinking the treasure chest: "The concubine is sincere~"
"Come on, you still have a sad brow, believe it or not, I'll make you so sad!" Lin Chen was amused, and looked at Xiao Zhao with a smile: "You get Du Shiniang out of the water alive again."
"Shi Niang is reasonable, you should know that I don't intend to offend you with my cheap mouth." Xiao Zhao was still poor with Lin Chen.
Lin Chen waved his hand and asked, "Did something happen?"
"I heard that the man said that the little boy tried his best to chase his niece, but the girl just didn't like him, so the man said that it might be that the little boy was forced to do such a heartless thing. In order to Escape responsibility, pretend to be the past murder case, and blame the murderer."
"Listen to you, this little boy is quite smart, isn't he?" Lin Chen joked at first, then paused for a moment to think about it and said, "It's better to call him over for a trial, because young people nowadays are generally timid. Not big, how can such a thing be done?"
"Have you forgotten the pervert in the cannibal case? He's not very old, maybe two or three years older than me. He looks like a Bodhisattva in a Buddhist altar. He actually kept a corpse in a freezer as food." , I feel chills when I think about it now, and I feel cold from behind."
Only then did Lin Chen think of the young man with a little cinnabar red between his brows, with a faint smile always on the corner of his lips.It seems that nothing is a big deal in his eyes, but now thinking of his expression, it seems that he has let go of everything and doesn't care about anything.Can't help asking: "Did you find out how he was sentenced after he was transferred to the judiciary?"
"Originally, he was going to be executed, but later it was said that he had mental problems. Now he is arguing about whether to send him to die or to get medical treatment." Xiao Zhao replied after thinking for a while.
Lin Chen nodded, and mentioned another thing: "You go to contact the girl's suitor first, I... I have some personal matters, so I will ask for leave first."
Xiao Zhao looked down at his watch, and agreed casually: "If you don't come back, remember to tell me."
Lin Chen said hello, and said again: "It's a chance for you to hone for nothing, you must hurry up."
"Master, you are really serious, and now you have to take advantage of it."
There was no time to talk to Xiao Zhao anymore, Lin Chen gave a few more instructions, then turned and left.After walking out of the police station, he took out his mobile phone and called Su Wen to make sure the other party was safe. Su Wen's voice on the other end of the phone was brisk: "Lin Chen, are you looking for me?"
"Brother Cheng didn't contact you to buy drugs, did he?"
"No, Lin Chen, today I..."
"No drugs?"
"No, I..."
Lin Chen hurriedly told Su Wen to eat first, and he would call anytime to confirm her safety, so he hung up the phone without listening to what Su Wen said.Lying in his pocket was the crystal bracelet given to Xie Anning that day, remembering the tender and shallow kiss that day was different from the past, when the lips and teeth were intertwined, he could clearly feel the other's gentle breathing, when his eyes crossed, he thought that this relationship was different.
But she didn't expect such a result in the end. Xie Anning's leaving without saying goodbye made her more sad than the previous farewell.It's like a pot of charcoal that is burning brightly and flying sparks, suddenly poured dripping with a ladle of cold water, only a wisp of lingering smoke that doesn't drift far away and lingers weakly.I don't even know where the pain came from, I just feel inexplicable.
Lin Chen was walking on the road, thinking that no matter how he reacted when he saw Xie Anning this time, he had to ask the question clearly, and then he would take her home with a stern face.
Lin Chen even more outrageously wanted to go to the hardware store to buy an iron chain first, and then lock Xie Anning firmly.It wasn't until she walked in front of Xie Anning's company that she realized how ridiculous and absurd the idea just now was, but apart from this method, there was no way for her to eliminate the lingering uneasiness in her heart.
Xie Anning left work an hour earlier than Lin Chen, Lin Chen looked down at the time, it was already Xie Anning's time to leave work.He didn't go up either, just stood downstairs and waited quietly.The traffic on the road was noisy, and pedestrians were in a hurry. Under the tree not far away, there was a child holding a popsicle in his hand. He was holding on to the tree and refused to let go. With his head down and a cold face, he seemed to reprimand something.Lin Chen looked at it with great interest, raised his head to look upstairs, and accidentally met Xie Anning who was looking downstairs.
It was the first time Lin Chen felt that Xie Anning was so far away from him, so he called out anxiously for Xie Anning, and saw Xie Anning slam the window shut.A moment later, the phone rang and a text message came from an unknown number.
There are only a few short words on it: You go, I don't want to see you.
Naturally, it was sent by Xie Anning.No matter how Lin Chen thought about it, he would never have thought that Xie Anning would be so repulsive to see him, and his heart was almost overwhelmed, and a nameless anger surged into his heart.
Hastily replied one line, with anger: I just want to see you, and I want to speak clearly with you today.
Xie Anning was about to return the phone to his colleague, when the phone vibrated and sent a text message, it was Lin Chen's number, both familiar and unfamiliar.Seeing that sentence made it clear, his hands trembled subconsciously, and he almost smashed his colleague's cell phone.
What should come will always come, but I have already moved away, so there is no need to say anything in person, right?
After a while of silence, Xie Anning let out a sigh of relief, sent another message and handed the phone back to his colleague.It was just an answer to Lin Chen, not himself.Another subconscious escape.
She was afraid that if she continued to entangle with Lin Chen, she might really reveal all her true emotions again.In her opinion, Lin Chen's feelings for her now can be somewhat sincere, which can be seen at a glance.
She was once satisfied with the status quo of the relationship she maintained with Lin Chen, allowing her to test a little bit, understand a little bit, but always have an absolutely safe personal distance, and if there is any problem, she can easily get out.Unexpectedly, I was just deceiving myself. Hearing the conversation between Lin Chen and Su Wen clearly on the phone that day was like a thorn stabbed into the fingertips a few days ago. Pus and scabs formed on the heart, which was fine when not touched, but severe pain when touched.
She originally thought that both Lin Chen and she were taking this relationship seriously, but people's hearts are fickle and it is not always so easy to predict.
The unit does not allow people from outside the unit to come in and out at will, and Lin Chen will not leave when she does not leave, and it is impossible for her to continue the stalemate with Lin Chen.Taking a deep breath, he closed his eyes and opened them again, stepping out of the company door step by step, meeting Lin Chen who was walking across.
Before Lin Chen opened his mouth, it was an unexpectedly calm tone, completely different from the ups and downs in his heart: "Lin Chen, don't talk, listen to me first, I know what you want to say... There is no need for you to feel guilty, I Leaving is not entirely your reason, but also my personal problem, although it is impossible for us, but I still hope you have a good life."
"You said it's impossible for us?" Lin Chen stared at Xie Anning in astonishment, and subconsciously repeated it.
"It's impossible." Xie Anning tried to smile at Lin Chen, remembering that
It was clear that the other party had put aside the topic just now and did not want to continue talking. Lin Chen could not continue to ask, so he only signaled Xiao Zhao to hand over the lighter he found to Xiao Liu, and nodded to her to indicate that he understood and wanted to leave: "Then leave it to is you."
When leaving, Xiao Zhao said that he still wanted to learn from him, and he didn't drag him away. He couldn't be restricted from learning other people's case-handling methods just because he was his apprentice.But regarding the phone call just now, doubts are not without doubts. Is it a bit of a fuss to ask the chief to dispatch troops in person for an explosion that may be an accident? As for the new colleague, he is even more incompatible with them. The ones from the center are naturally with the eyes higher than the top.
Rubbing between the eyebrows, the city is cool after the rain, and the wind blowing on the face drives away a little sleepiness.It was already late at Su Wen's house, and Su Wen was still sitting in the living room waiting. Hearing Lin Chen's knock on the door, he hurriedly stood up and opened the door, and raised his hand to touch Lin Chen's face.
"It's cold outside, your face is frozen, I'll warm you a bowl of ginger soup to drive away the cold."
This is full of An Ning's sense of sight.
Lin Chen gently pushed Su Wen away and shook his head. Seeing Su Wen's stunned expression, he said: "You don't need to learn from her, you are different from her. She does take care of people, but she is definitely not this kind of kind Concern, I will feel unaccustomed to you like this, it’s getting late, you go to bed first, I’ll cook a pot and drink it myself.”
He took off his coat and put it on the hanger, carefully wiped the dusty soles of his shoes before stepping into the house.
"Where is your brown sugar?"
Su Wen bit her lips and remained silent. She firmly believed that Lin Chen's interest in Xie Anning was just a novelty, because she had never met such a woman before. What Zhang Ailing said roughly meant the same thing. The red roses at the beginning were as gorgeous as cinnabar in the heart. Moles, in the end, get tired of looking at them, and they are nothing more than mediocre mosquito blood clinging to the wall.
Don't you just know how to serve people, Su Wen secretly sneered.But still tired of the expression on Lin Chen's brows when he mentioned Xie Anning, Su Wen said: "Nothing I do is good in your eyes, but whatever she does is good in your eyes, even if she cares about you Am I learning from her?"
Lin Chen raised her eyelids to look at Su Wen, she didn't have the strength to entangle Su Wen on this issue now.
"It's getting late, you go to bed."
Su Wen turned around and made a gesture to leave, but suddenly turned his head again.
"Brother Cheng called me today."
Lin Chen finally raised his head to stare at Su Wen, and hurriedly asked, "Is it about drugs?"
"I think you've got drugs in your head!" Su Wen tilted his head and smiled, and said after a while: "He said he was a little interested in me, and said that if I followed him, I could get any good stuff. "
"Lin Chen, do you need me to help you to this point? If you say yes, I will go to him even if I don't want to."
Sure enough, Lin Chen frowned deeply again, and sighed softly: "No, it's not safe, I have no right to let you do this."
"I want to give you everything, but I have nothing, so I can only help you in this way. If you need it, I can really do anything..." Su Wen stepped forward to hug Lin Chen, but was caught The other party took a step back to avoid it, only took a deep look at Lin Chen, and turned into the bedroom and closed the door.
She can really do for Lin Chen everything that Lin Chen is willing to ask her to do, and she also understands that Lin Chen will not push her into danger.Now she can make Lin Chen feel guilty, and when the time is up, she will try to develop.
But she also couldn't bear Lin Chen's deliberate alienation, as if she had a family.Doesn't she, Lin Chen, understand that the other party is a straight person? !
It's not so easy to break a bend, not to mention straight people change their minds faster, and they just play more!Now that Lin Chen is so [-]% invested, she will be the one who can't stand up when the time comes!Why doesn't she understand!
……
Lin Chen didn't sleep well that night, and he felt faintly that something happened, so he called Ruan Beibei after thinking for a while.She also knew that Ruan Beibei and Xie Anning were having an argument, but after all, they were friends for many years, and Jiang Jie had never disturbed Ruan Beibei's life for a long time, no matter how big the anger was, it was time to calm down.
"Hey?"
Lin Chen cleared his throat, recalling Xie Anning's pale face when he left, and still worried: "Is Ruan Beibei?"
"What's wrong with Xie Anning?" Lin Chen never went to the Three Treasures Hall for nothing, and Ruan Beibei knew in her heart, don't let the police force Xie Anning to make her follow behind to clean up the mess, her love life is still in tatters A bunch of them.
"She...I haven't been home for the past few days. I have something to do at work. I just want you to accompany Xie Anning. Don't leave her alone. You also know her little problem. She likes to think wildly when she is alone."
Ruan Beibei thought for a moment and didn't ask any more questions: "Well, text me your home address."
Lin Chen responded, sent a text message and fell asleep, only to wake up in a trance the next morning.He picked up his phone and wanted to read Ruan Beibei's reply, but unexpectedly received a call from another colleague. Lin Chen wondered if something had happened again.
Sure enough, the voice on the other end of the phone was urgent.
"There's a murder case."
After being a policeman for so many years, Lin Chenzao was extremely sensitive to the word murder. Hearing this, he said immediately: "Tell me where the crime happened, and I'll rush over there right away, um...okay, I'll go over right away."
From the simple words of the other party, I roughly understood that it was a case with extremely cruel modus operandi, and it seemed to involve a case of my master more than ten years ago.
One after another, major events appeared one after another as if they had been agreed upon. The most frightening thing was the feeling of powerlessness.Lin Chen hurried to the scene after washing briefly. If she can solve this case, it will be the best gift for her master.
As soon as he entered the scene, he was distracted by the climax of music.
— "Ah! You're going to take my kiss on your mouth at last, John. Good! I'll kiss you now."
Lin Chen was taken aback. Although it was in English, she vaguely remembered that it was a line in a certain drama, and she had seen related movies.
— "I'm going to kiss your mouth now...but why don't you look at me, John? Nothing in this world can compare to your red lips."
——"Why don't you look at me. As long as you see me, you will definitely fall in love with me!"
The voice became sharper and sharper, like a wordless sigh suppressed to the limit in the deep valley, finally breaking through the throat and making a hoarse voice, the voice became more and more urgent, how much backlog of gloom burst out in this voice!
- "Why don't you look at me!"
Lin Chen turned his head, but saw the victim in a horrific death.
☆, heart like ashes (don't buy after reading it)
The victim was lying on the coffee table with his limbs stretched out, but what was really frightening was the shock brought by the silent corpse under the increasingly intense human voices.
The neck seems to have been repeatedly cut by blunt knives, leaving deep bone scars and blurred flesh and blood. Looking up, the face is smeared with blood so that the original face cannot be seen clearly. There should be a pair of eyes There is nothing in the place, only two dark hollows, and a line of extremely sad blood flow, the pair of missing eyeballs are like gemstones that are connected to the rope and hung on the chest.
It was still early in the morning, and there were not many policemen at the scene, and the voice of Salome, who had killed her loved one, was still muttering to her ears. Down below, it looks like a picture carefully painted with cinnabar.
Lin Chen subconsciously looked away from the victim, but suddenly heard the sound from the player.
——“I want to use my teeth to kiss you like biting a piece of fruit.”
- "Why don't you look at me!"
— "Ah! Why don't you look at me, John? What shall I do now, John?"
I was startled subconsciously, because the full of sorrow and helplessness seemed to come from the mouth of the victim, as if to say why I should be stingy with your eyes after such a miserable death.Lin Chen slowed down, and after calming down, he bent down and carefully searched for evidence at the scene.
The death time of the deceased should not be long, there is no rigor phenomenon yet, and there is still a faint smell of blood floating in the room.
After many days of depression and facing death several times, Lin Chen felt that he was a little numb at that time, half kneeling □ and carefully looking for fingerprints and unusual places.
He couldn't help turning his head to look at the deceased. Indeed, to die in such a heroic manner, he was really not afraid that his eyes would be taken away from him.Even if it is terrifying, people's curiosity always drives people to peek carefully, but even if they are longing for the eyes of others, they should not use this method, fearing that the murderer's way of thinking is also different from ordinary people.
Salome was originally a character in the Bible, and was endowed with a coquettish and dark personality by Wilde in his works.
People praise her as a narcissus, but they don't know that she is a poppy that blooms beautifully. After asking for nothing, she does not hesitate to use the death of her lover to fulfill her abnormal love.
The legendary Salome is extremely beautiful, but she can only sadly say to John, why don't you look at me?
Using such a strange method to murder the victim, Lin Chen couldn't imagine the logic of the murderer's thinking for a while, but the voice in his ear continued, and it seemed to be looping again.
Not sure if this killer was the one her master met back then, Lin Chen went back to the police station and went to the file room to look at the documents, and found that the description on it was the same as what he encountered now, the neck was also cut open, The eyes were gouged out and used as necklaces.The master recorded in it that the neck is the softest part of the human body, and it is also the most fatal part. The eyeballs are also soft, and the murderer has a tendency to abuse the weak.
The audio of Salome's opera was also specially played at the scene to attract attention, and it may be related to it.Lin Chen yawned tiredly, it was almost lunch break, he wanted to call Xie Anning to talk, but when he turned on the phone, there were several missed calls from Ruan Beibei.
Some people dialed the phone curiously, and Ruan Beibei's voice came over in a hurry: "Are you sure Xie Anning is at home? I went to your house and took the key and opened the door as you said. There is no one in the house. She doesn't have the two potted flowers, grooming tools, clothes and shoes, where is she now?"
"You mean Xie Anning is gone?" Lin Chen was surprised.
These few days because of being too busy, she seldom thought of Xie Anning, so she naturally ignored her feelings, but she never thought that Xie Anning would leave.
Why leave?
The question lingered in Lin Chen's mind, and he called to ask, but the other party's phone was in the middle of a call, and when he called after a while, he was still in the middle of the call. After countless attempts, he finally realized that he might already be in the other party's blacklist.He walked out of the office and asked other people to borrow a phone, and typed the familiar phone number on the screen with his fingertips.
Xie Anning's voice sounded from the other end, Lin Chen only uttered one syllable before he could speak, the other party hastily hung up the phone.I don't know how many people's mobile phones have been borrowed. Finally, no one's mobile phone can be dialed. Maybe Xie Anning took the trouble to set up a white list directly.
Lin Chen stared blankly at the phone in his hand, a little dazed by Xie Anning's sudden indifference.Anxiety, the uncontrollable uneasiness that grows from the bottom of my heart is like vines entrenched in my heart, feared by love, arousing unspeakable fear.
It was as if something was readily available, but was sent away by himself.
Lin Chen had a faint headache. She seemed to have walked through a bottleneck or a dead end in her life, as if what she once owned did not belong to her overnight.Countless troubles and annoyances piled up in front of him, but his most important person ran away from home at this time, Lin Chen complained for a moment about his deception to Xie Anning and Xie Anning's impulsiveness.
Maybe, Xie Anning just couldn't figure it out for a while, and would come back, just like last time.Although he comforted himself like this, he didn't feel any better.Ruyi and Yuanbao's going or staying can prove Xie Anning's determination. She still left Ruyi Yuanbao to take care of her when she was so tense last time, it was not so chic this time.
But in the end, why?
Sitting in the room, Xie Anning lowered her head and stared blankly at the phone in her hand, and suddenly burst out laughing.It's been so long, and now she realizes that she has left, and that's just the amount of left.She originally wanted to leave and wait until she calmed down before having an interview with Lin Chen, but she found that everything was because she thought too well.
It is not without reason that evasion has become people's choice again and again. It is indeed more comfortable to escape than to face it directly.What if she appeared in front of Lin Chen and really heard the news of Lin Chen and Su Wen's resurgence?
She received a call from Su Wen last night. She was already extremely disgusted to hear Su Wen's voice, but she still clicked to answer it.
"Xie Anning, are you asleep?"
Xie Anning twitched the corners of her lips and mocked: "Thanks to you, I can't sleep."
As if hearing Xie Anning's mocking tone for the first time, Su Wen was silent for a moment on the other end of the phone, and laughed loudly: "I thought that a good old man like you wouldn't talk like that."
"Then what should I say? Ask if you have taken care of Lin Chen's basic necessities, and whether your love life is going well?"
"Isn't it? Lin Chen likes you for that." Su Wen lowered his head and fiddled with his fingers, and said softly: "I'm afraid that Lin Chen will leave your service, I'm not used to it."
It's not taking care, it's serving.
It turned out that the thoughtful care that has been taking care of her all this time has dropped a word that is no different from describing a servant.
Xie Anning, you are so cheap, really.
I thought that I could manage this relationship well with Lin Chen, but it turned out to be just wishful thinking.It was just more than a year ago that Lin Chen was still saying that I would wait until you could accept me, but what about now?Let someone's ex-girlfriend or current girlfriend humiliate you!
Xie Anning's throat was astringent, and he could clearly hear the words he spit out word by word.
"Please tell Lin Chen, if you must live together, you might as well move to Lin Chen's own house, and don't hide from me, anyway... I have already moved away. As for serving..." Xie Anning took a breath, pointed her nose Slightly sour: "I resigned."
Su Wen didn't seem to notice Xie Anning's emotions, and continued: "You moved away, Lin Chen doesn't know yet, right?"
"do not know."
"Xie Anning... Sometimes I really feel that you are so considerate, so thank you for your understanding."
Xie Anning held the phone and did not answer for a long time.
Su Wen put an end to this not-so-pleasant conversation, and said in a slightly smiling voice, "Lin Chen will miss you."
Oh, Lin Chen will miss you?
Xie Anning repeated it silently in her heart, and finally couldn't help but smile wryly.
She will miss me.
☆, the peak is difficult to climb (inverted V read do not buy)
It wasn't until Lin Chen hurried back that he realized why Ruan Beibei called him directly to ask where Xie Anning had gone. The home that was filled with things seemed to be empty all of a sudden, and the vibrant plants on the window sills disappeared. The inexplicable little books that Xie Anning read after dinner that were usually on the table were gone, and she subconsciously went to the back room. Everything that originally belonged to Xie Anning disappeared completely, as if this person had never lived in her home.
Lin Chen leaned against the door and paused. Even though she didn't believe it before, now that she saw this, she knew that Xie Anning had left.Maybe it's because I figured it out when I don't have myself. After all, it's better for a straight person to live in the sun, or maybe I'm tired of the ambiguity between two people who seem to cross the line occasionally.Lin Chen frowned, she could only think of these things, whatever it was, Xie Anning had already left but it had already become a fact.
He raised his phone and sent a text message to Xie An Ning while suppressing his anger. After a while, he suddenly came back to see what he had typed on the phone.
——Are you still learning to run away from home?
Shaking her head somewhat self-deprecatingly, why should she talk to Xie Anning in such a tone.
Straight people are after all a peak that is within reach but hard to see.
However, Lin Chen was not Xie Anning after all, he sat quietly on the bed in Xie Anning's bedroom for a while, and finally made up his mind to go to Xie Anning's company to find her.
At the beginning, I made up my mind to live with Xie Anning. It didn't make sense that once Xie Anning disappeared, Lin Chen would have to cry and accept her fate. When Lin Chen was 27 and about to be three years old, in fact, he had lost his love. The longing for love, and now I prefer what the ancients said, wishing to be alone.
How long is the road to life, and how difficult it is to win a person's heart forever.
Sitting on the bed in the bedroom, Lin Chen had an idea, and somehow made himself laugh.
Ruan Beibei just turned back from the outside, and just happened to see Lin Chen sitting on the bed silly and happy, and immediately got angry: "Hey, you are happy that Xie Anning is gone, aren't you?"
Lin Chen hurriedly shook his head.
"I think too much..." Just as I was about to explain, I saw Ruan Beibei's expression became more and more angry, and hurriedly said: "No, I just suddenly thought that thanks to An Ning, the good man will have a safe life..."
Ruan Beibei felt even more dumbfounded at the moment.
"I said that you and Xie Anning are not normal people, no wonder you can be together. You two think less about things all day long, how much less things do you have between you?" After a pause, he said: "I just I called Xie Anning, but she didn't answer my call, so don't be too happy, what happened between you and Xie Anning?"
Lin Chen thought for a moment, then raised his eyes blankly: "I guess I've been busy with work these days and didn't go home?"
"Have you been home for a few days?"
"Three or four days..."
Ruan Beibei's original bad temper became more and more apparent, and she laughed back angrily: "That is to say, you don't even know that Xie Anning has been gone for a few days, right?! Police officer Lin, you are busy enough, you can't sleep twice for three days Home, it's silly for people to run away now. I think Xie Anning is walking right, she was with you only after her head was smashed. "
Lin Chen listened to Ruan Beibei's lecture, as if he finally thought of the reason for Xie Anning's departure, and it suddenly dawned on him.
"I'll go to her unit to find her."
Ruan Beibei raised her hand to stop Lin Chen, and then took a look at her: "I think you've been busy lately, if Xie Anning made you unhappy, you ran away, and finally Xie Anning went to the police station to look for you as if nothing happened. Can you see her?"
"what do you mean?"
Ruan Beibei thought for a moment, then said: "I'll go to Xie Anning and ask, you wait for my news first."
Lin Chen had no choice but to agree, looking down at his watch, the lunch break time had passed, so he had to rush back to the police station first.
Xiao Zhao stayed in the office at noon and compared the current crime scene with the previous file in his hand. When he saw Lin Chen coming, he raised his hand and beckoned Lin Chen to come over. He frowned and asked, "Who do you think the crime is?" Are you alone?"
Seeing Lin Chen nod his head, he stroked his chin again, and stroked the non-existent beard.
"Is it possible that it is a copycat crime? Look here." He raised his hand and pointed at the victim's death at the scene, and finally his fingertips rested on the victim's neck: "The knife wound on the victim's neck in the previous case Neat, although the bone is also visible, it is not like the victim that happened now, the wound on the neck seemed to be repeatedly cut by a blunt knife, and finally this irregular wound appeared."
After Master Lin Chen took over this case, a total of three cases like this happened, and the murderer was not afraid of being traced by the police.After the death of Master Lin Chen, although the murderer was not brought to justice, it never happened again.
"And you see, the imitator also added new ideas to this case. In the case a few years ago, the victim's lips were cut off, and in this case, the eyeballs were gouged out and strung on a necklace."
Lin Chen had something in his heart, looked at the picture a little casually, and then said: "Or it can be understood in combination with Salome's story. The previous incidents came from Salome's longing for her lover's red lips, but now this one is For the despair that your lover never looks at you?"
"Master, are you serious? Could there be such a literary killer? I think he played that opera just to confuse the police, divert the police's investigation direction to the opera, and think about complicated things."
Lin Chen did not actively discuss with Xiao Zhao as before, and intuitively told her that the reason why Xie Anning moved out was not that simple, but she really couldn't think of other reasons for Xie Anning to leave besides those reasons.
Could it be that you are going back to your mother's house?
Xiao Zhao didn't notice that Lin Chen was distracted, and his whole attention was on his guess.
"Maybe it's just an ordinary love killing. I learned the previous serial murders as a gimmick to get rid of the suspicion. We can find clues from the person who had conflicts with the victim, maybe it's better than stopping at the opera study."
Looking up, he saw Lin Chen staring intently at his water glass with his chin resting on his hands.
"Master! Do you know what it means to go to work? If you let that powerful person from the central government see you, you might be arranged in front of the chief!"
Only then did Lin Chen come back to his senses, and just now he was in a trance and only heard half of what Xiao Zhao said, and looked at Xiao Zhao in a daze.She was also really exhausted, and there was a faint layer of bruise floating on her eyelids, and she could tell at a glance that she didn't sleep well at night.
Xiao Zhao had no choice but to say his thoughts again, and Lin Chen said wearily: "According to your opinion, you have brought back the person you think is suspicious, right?"
Xiao Zhao chuckled: "This is our routine for handling cases. People have already brought them here, but they are not suspects. They are just called here to ask about the situation and make notes. Master, how are you? Come with me? "
"Success, I'll be jury."
Lin Chen thought for a moment before answering.
It seemed that he hadn't been in the interrogation room for a long time. Seeing the person talking to the police with warm boiled water in front of him, Lin Chen felt a little like a lifetime ago.I always feel that there are more cases, but it is not as fulfilling as before, because no matter how busy I was in the police station before, there was always Xie Anning waiting at home, so I could sit together, eat and talk.
Sometimes I am too tired, watching TV and falling asleep on the sofa. After a short nap, when I open my eyes, I can see Xie Anning reading a book under the dim lamp, as if seeing her for the first time When the light fell on Xie Anning's side face, even the eyelashes were blurred into a soft ball.
So he fell asleep again in a daze, as if the world only needed you to sleep peacefully, and someone would always accompany you.
Pulling back to his senses, Xiao Zhao has already started to ask questions.
The other party was the victim's uncle, and the victim's parents were involved in an accident in the early years, which is surprisingly similar to Lin Chen.The man's face was not very good-looking, he just coughed lightly and cleared his throat: "After her parents died, the custody was handed over to me. I divorced early, and I didn't leave a trace of incense, so I always regarded her as my own." She is raised like a daughter. But maybe because she lost her parents, she has always been a bit introverted, and she is not a particularly outstanding person. No matter how I think about it, I never thought why she encountered such a thing..." Covering her face Some pain.
Xiao Zhao thought for a while and asked, "Has anyone had any grudges with the victim?"
"No, she has always been very good."
"But you're not sure, are you?"
The man picked up the hot water cup and took a sip, his hands trembling slightly.
"I remembered, there is a person..."
"what?"
☆、Freezing point
Hearing a question from the policeman on the opposite side, the man hadn't talked to the policeman much, he swallowed his saliva and raised his eyes to glance at Xiao Zhao, then picked up his teacup and took a sip of water nervously.This action caused Lin Chen to subconsciously look around at the man's appearance. It can be seen that the man is not young anymore, and the few white hairs on the sideburns are not too conspicuous. with.
After all, it was a child raised by a daughter, who died so badly, how could she not cry,
The man's voice seemed to be trying his best to keep calm, but he still couldn't help trembling, "She has a male classmate who has been chasing her, and she hasn't agreed to it. He must be asking for it, so he remembered such a thing!"
Lin Chen was noncommittal, and only lowered his eyebrows to write down this more important testimony.
Xiao Zhao was clearly interested in this case, and the questions became more and more detailed. Lin Chen was still listening carefully at first, and occasionally nodded his head in approval to encourage Xiao Zhao to continue asking. To an early morning more than a year ago.As soon as I opened my eyes, I saw the person sitting in front of me. Although I was full of depression, when I thought of that scene, there was no haze in my heart.
Probably because the sun was too good that day.
Sighing silently in my heart, I was stunned, and an imperceptible sense of loss passed between my brows and eyes.
Xiao Zhao had almost finished asking, stood up and politely thanked the man for his cooperation, and the man stood up and left.Turning around, I saw Lin Chen staring at the place at hand, apparently in a daze, couldn't help but raised his hand and patted Lin Chen.
"Master, you look like that young woman in spring with worried brows, don't you be let down by a heartless man." He raised his fingertips in a cheap way, and put on the appearance of a young woman covering her face. The ten-year-old boy made that action indescribably funny, and choked out the libretto of Du Shiniang's anger sinking the treasure chest: "The concubine is sincere~"
"Come on, you still have a sad brow, believe it or not, I'll make you so sad!" Lin Chen was amused, and looked at Xiao Zhao with a smile: "You get Du Shiniang out of the water alive again."
"Shi Niang is reasonable, you should know that I don't intend to offend you with my cheap mouth." Xiao Zhao was still poor with Lin Chen.
Lin Chen waved his hand and asked, "Did something happen?"
"I heard that the man said that the little boy tried his best to chase his niece, but the girl just didn't like him, so the man said that it might be that the little boy was forced to do such a heartless thing. In order to Escape responsibility, pretend to be the past murder case, and blame the murderer."
"Listen to you, this little boy is quite smart, isn't he?" Lin Chen joked at first, then paused for a moment to think about it and said, "It's better to call him over for a trial, because young people nowadays are generally timid. Not big, how can such a thing be done?"
"Have you forgotten the pervert in the cannibal case? He's not very old, maybe two or three years older than me. He looks like a Bodhisattva in a Buddhist altar. He actually kept a corpse in a freezer as food." , I feel chills when I think about it now, and I feel cold from behind."
Only then did Lin Chen think of the young man with a little cinnabar red between his brows, with a faint smile always on the corner of his lips.It seems that nothing is a big deal in his eyes, but now thinking of his expression, it seems that he has let go of everything and doesn't care about anything.Can't help asking: "Did you find out how he was sentenced after he was transferred to the judiciary?"
"Originally, he was going to be executed, but later it was said that he had mental problems. Now he is arguing about whether to send him to die or to get medical treatment." Xiao Zhao replied after thinking for a while.
Lin Chen nodded, and mentioned another thing: "You go to contact the girl's suitor first, I... I have some personal matters, so I will ask for leave first."
Xiao Zhao looked down at his watch, and agreed casually: "If you don't come back, remember to tell me."
Lin Chen said hello, and said again: "It's a chance for you to hone for nothing, you must hurry up."
"Master, you are really serious, and now you have to take advantage of it."
There was no time to talk to Xiao Zhao anymore, Lin Chen gave a few more instructions, then turned and left.After walking out of the police station, he took out his mobile phone and called Su Wen to make sure the other party was safe. Su Wen's voice on the other end of the phone was brisk: "Lin Chen, are you looking for me?"
"Brother Cheng didn't contact you to buy drugs, did he?"
"No, Lin Chen, today I..."
"No drugs?"
"No, I..."
Lin Chen hurriedly told Su Wen to eat first, and he would call anytime to confirm her safety, so he hung up the phone without listening to what Su Wen said.Lying in his pocket was the crystal bracelet given to Xie Anning that day, remembering the tender and shallow kiss that day was different from the past, when the lips and teeth were intertwined, he could clearly feel the other's gentle breathing, when his eyes crossed, he thought that this relationship was different.
But she didn't expect such a result in the end. Xie Anning's leaving without saying goodbye made her more sad than the previous farewell.It's like a pot of charcoal that is burning brightly and flying sparks, suddenly poured dripping with a ladle of cold water, only a wisp of lingering smoke that doesn't drift far away and lingers weakly.I don't even know where the pain came from, I just feel inexplicable.
Lin Chen was walking on the road, thinking that no matter how he reacted when he saw Xie Anning this time, he had to ask the question clearly, and then he would take her home with a stern face.
Lin Chen even more outrageously wanted to go to the hardware store to buy an iron chain first, and then lock Xie Anning firmly.It wasn't until she walked in front of Xie Anning's company that she realized how ridiculous and absurd the idea just now was, but apart from this method, there was no way for her to eliminate the lingering uneasiness in her heart.
Xie Anning left work an hour earlier than Lin Chen, Lin Chen looked down at the time, it was already Xie Anning's time to leave work.He didn't go up either, just stood downstairs and waited quietly.The traffic on the road was noisy, and pedestrians were in a hurry. Under the tree not far away, there was a child holding a popsicle in his hand. He was holding on to the tree and refused to let go. With his head down and a cold face, he seemed to reprimand something.Lin Chen looked at it with great interest, raised his head to look upstairs, and accidentally met Xie Anning who was looking downstairs.
It was the first time Lin Chen felt that Xie Anning was so far away from him, so he called out anxiously for Xie Anning, and saw Xie Anning slam the window shut.A moment later, the phone rang and a text message came from an unknown number.
There are only a few short words on it: You go, I don't want to see you.
Naturally, it was sent by Xie Anning.No matter how Lin Chen thought about it, he would never have thought that Xie Anning would be so repulsive to see him, and his heart was almost overwhelmed, and a nameless anger surged into his heart.
Hastily replied one line, with anger: I just want to see you, and I want to speak clearly with you today.
Xie Anning was about to return the phone to his colleague, when the phone vibrated and sent a text message, it was Lin Chen's number, both familiar and unfamiliar.Seeing that sentence made it clear, his hands trembled subconsciously, and he almost smashed his colleague's cell phone.
What should come will always come, but I have already moved away, so there is no need to say anything in person, right?
After a while of silence, Xie Anning let out a sigh of relief, sent another message and handed the phone back to his colleague.It was just an answer to Lin Chen, not himself.Another subconscious escape.
She was afraid that if she continued to entangle with Lin Chen, she might really reveal all her true emotions again.In her opinion, Lin Chen's feelings for her now can be somewhat sincere, which can be seen at a glance.
She was once satisfied with the status quo of the relationship she maintained with Lin Chen, allowing her to test a little bit, understand a little bit, but always have an absolutely safe personal distance, and if there is any problem, she can easily get out.Unexpectedly, I was just deceiving myself. Hearing the conversation between Lin Chen and Su Wen clearly on the phone that day was like a thorn stabbed into the fingertips a few days ago. Pus and scabs formed on the heart, which was fine when not touched, but severe pain when touched.
She originally thought that both Lin Chen and she were taking this relationship seriously, but people's hearts are fickle and it is not always so easy to predict.
The unit does not allow people from outside the unit to come in and out at will, and Lin Chen will not leave when she does not leave, and it is impossible for her to continue the stalemate with Lin Chen.Taking a deep breath, he closed his eyes and opened them again, stepping out of the company door step by step, meeting Lin Chen who was walking across.
Before Lin Chen opened his mouth, it was an unexpectedly calm tone, completely different from the ups and downs in his heart: "Lin Chen, don't talk, listen to me first, I know what you want to say... There is no need for you to feel guilty, I Leaving is not entirely your reason, but also my personal problem, although it is impossible for us, but I still hope you have a good life."
"You said it's impossible for us?" Lin Chen stared at Xie Anning in astonishment, and subconsciously repeated it.
"It's impossible." Xie Anning tried to smile at Lin Chen, remembering that
