Chapter 38 Your face is red

Early the next morning, Lin Xin and others gathered in the small meeting room of the institute.They were busy last night until nearly two o'clock in the morning before they found all the shops selling puzzles in Yang City.

When everyone gathered together, they all noticed the faint blackness under each other's eyes, but in order to seek justice for the little dead, such tiredness was nothing at all.

Lin Xin put the puzzle pieces on the table in the conference room, and said, "Take a picture of the puzzle pieces, and you can ask the shopkeeper to help you check them when you are looking for them. I will take this piece of puzzle pieces with me, and we will distribute the rest."

After finishing speaking, Lin Xin spread out a few sheets of white paper on the table, which contained densely packed names, addresses, and phone numbers of businesses.

She pointed to the paper and said, "I sorted these businesses by address last night, we have to act separately. Onion, you go to the east, Meihua, you go to the west, Sakura, you go to the south, Xiaojie, you go to the north , and I'm in the middle, these are the business names you need to look for."

Lin Xin said while distributing the paper to everyone.

"Let's work separately. It would be best if the other party has closed-circuit television. You can check the records of the last month. If not, it will be more laborious. Although the jigsaw puzzle you have taken may not be able to find the complete picture smoothly pattern, but better than nothing."

"Besides, we can check the merchant's payment charges. Although I don't think the murderer will use a credit card or any bank transfer, this will leave a record after all. The murderer will probably use cash. Another point is that if there is Any suspicious person appears, please pay more attention, there is also a photo of the clothes on the child that Director Wang showed us at the meeting yesterday, I will send you a copy later, maybe you can recognize the child from the clothes."

"In addition, the size of the only jigsaw puzzle we have looks like a [-]-piece jigsaw puzzle, so the search range can be narrowed. If we can't confirm it, we have to ask the merchant for help."

Lin Xin glanced at the crowd, seeing that everyone was listening seriously, she said, "Okay, this is what I want to explain, do you have any questions?"

The other four shook their heads.

Seeing that the matter was explained clearly, Lin Xin clapped her hands and said, "Okay, let's go now! Regardless of whether we can find all the businesses or not, we'll meet up at the police station around eight o'clock."

After receiving the order, everyone set out to inquire one after another, leaving Lin Xin in the conference room.

Holding the puzzle piece in her hand, she said softly in her heart: No matter who you are, I will not let you die without knowing why.

The weather in October was neither too cold nor too hot. Originally, this was a wonderful season, but after this happened, Lin Xin didn't have the heart to appreciate the scenery outside. What she thought about was the flaws in the case.

She remembered what the professor at the police academy said: No matter how shrewd a murderer you are, you will always leave a hole.

Until eight o'clock in the evening, five people gathered in the meeting room again, but the difference was that they all brought back boxes of puzzles.

Seeing the boxes of puzzles in their hands, Lin Xin groaned secretly.

This proves that no one can accurately identify the jigsaw puzzles found from the children, so they simply bought them all in desperation, including myself.

Seeing that everyone was here, Lin Xin smiled wryly and said, "It seems that everyone's fate is similar."

Looking at more than 40 boxes of [-]-piece jigsaw puzzles on the table, everyone's faces were full of sadness, so I don't know how long it will take to complete the puzzle, and the pattern may not be correct after the puzzle.If the patterns are all wrong, it will take longer to find the murderer.

In fact, there are many murder cases in the world that took a while to find out the real murderer, some took five years, some took ten years, or even twenty or thirty years, so this time Lin Xin felt that she had a great deal of time. It may make the whole case yellow, or even become a case without a head.

Yang Cong put the boxes of jigsaw puzzles he bought on the table. He looked at these [-]-piece jigsaw puzzles, his face turned green, and he raised his head and said, "Sister Lin, there are so many of these jigsaw puzzles, and there are only a few of us. With so much strength, there is no way to finish it in a short time. Otherwise, let's ask the police officer Leng next door for help."

At this moment, Lin Xin knew that in order to find out the murderer as soon as possible, the problem of face must be put aside for the time being.Thinking of myself going to beg her one more time, I felt a little annoyed.

She said: "Well, I will go find her later. By the way, have you found any suspicious characters or any children similar to the little dead so far?"

Everyone let Lin Xin down again.

In fact, the murderer is so thoughtful, maybe he will find a business without CCTV.All that Lin Xin could think of, the murderer must have thought about it too.

Lin Xin thought of this, and knew that the only way to find out the real culprit was these puzzles.Without delay, she walked out of the conference room and came outside Leng Yu's office.

She glanced inside the office and saw Leng Yu sitting upright on her seat, looking down at something, thinking that she was here, so she stood up straight, knocked on the door three times, opened it and walked in.

When Leng Yu heard the sound of the door opening, she looked up and saw that it was Lin Xin who came in. A trace of tenderness appeared in her eyes involuntarily, but the soft light disappeared after a flash.

"It's rare for Officer Lin to come here, what's the matter?"

The voice was flat as before, without a trace of waves.

"Officer Leng, I want to ask you and your team members to help me with something."

Lin Xin heard her somewhat alienated but mocking tone just now, although she was angry, she had to pull back.

"What's the matter?" Leng Yu asked.

"Please help us with the puzzle," Lin Xin said.

There was earnestness in his tone.

Leng Yu raised her eyebrows, and immediately replied, "Okay."

The short answer was extremely firm.

Just like that, ten people gathered in the meeting room instantly.This was their first time working together, Lin Xin didn't expect Leng Yu to agree immediately, she thought it might take a lot of talking just now to get Leng Yu to mobilize her members.

Everyone moved the tables and chairs in the meeting room to clear a large area, and then everyone put the puzzles they bought in a corner of the room, everyone picked up the puzzles, and then two people started to put together one box in this way.

Sitting in front of Huang Lin, Meihua saw that among the poured out jigsaw puzzle pieces, several pieces were somewhat similar to the pieces from the child, and the shapes and colors were not far from each other. I don't know how long it will take to complete the puzzle, and the same is true for other puzzles in the corner of the room.

She looked at Lin Xin and Leng Yu, and said quietly: "Huang Lin, I really didn't expect Officer Leng to agree to let you help us with the puzzle. If there are only a few people in so many boxes of puzzles, then we will be blamed if we don't fight to the death. Also I don't know what Sister Lin said to make her agree so easily."

Huang Lin followed her gaze to the two bosses, then turned to Mei Hua and said, "It's better not to see too clearly about some things."

Plum Blossom asked curiously, "What do you mean?"

Huang Lin said: "It's okay, let's continue. If you don't finish the fight, your sister Lin will have a headache."

Mei Hua thought that there were so many boxes of puzzles beside her, so she concentrated on putting them together.

Yang Cong on the other side said to Xiao Cheng: "Old Xiao, thanks to you, I feel bright now."

Xiao Cheng said: "Anyway, our team is fine now, treat me to a meal after solving the case, haha!"

Yang Cong said: "I don't know if we can solve the case, but it seems to be a tricky case."

Xiao Cheng said: "Your sister Lin didn't cover it, and her subordinates have solved many cases so far, almost the same as our boss."

Yang Cong responded, "Yes, that's true."

Lin Xin and Leng Yu sat cross-legged facing each other. They looked at the jigsaw puzzle that Lin Xin got from the deceased, and compared it with the pattern of the jigsaw puzzle box. They saw that there were a few similarities with that jigsaw puzzle, but Don't know right or wrong.

Lin Xin sighed and said, "It seems that we still have to work hard to find out."

Leng Yu looked up at her, and said, "Let's put this puzzle piece in front of our eyes. If we encounter a puzzle piece that is somewhat similar to this piece, we should pay attention to it and check it. If it is really here It's in forty boxes."

Lin Xin nodded, and the two put their heads together carefully fighting together.

Since both of them are serious people, once they started, they didn't talk anymore.Leng Yu didn't talk much, but Lin Xin was eager to find out the real culprit quickly, so she didn't say any more irrelevant nonsense.

For a while, the room was silent.

Leng Yu sat across from Lin Xin, occasionally raised her head to look at her, and saw her frowning.Seeing Lin Xin's hair falling down on the side of her forehead, she raised her hand to tuck it behind her ears.

Her behavior is the same as when she was a child.

It's just that Lin Xin on the opposite side was the same as before, she didn't notice Leng Yu's behavior at all, she was concentrating on the puzzle.

Leng Yu saw that she was so focused, with a slight smile on her lips. When she raised her hand to pick up the puzzle pieces beside her, Lin Xin's hand happened to be heading in that direction, so her two hands touched each other inadvertently. Together.

The two moved their hands away like an electric shock, and Lin Xin recovered from her concentrated thoughts, only to realize that she accidentally touched her hand just now.

When she raised her head, she happened to see Leng Yu's eyes looking over at her. Although there was no slight ups and downs in her eyes, Lin Xin felt that there was a little bit of starlight in them, which attracted her.

She hurriedly looked away, lowered her head, and said, "I'm sorry."

Although he couldn't hear anything in his tone, his ears were already red.

Leng Yu stared at Lin Xin for a few seconds, and the surrounding air was filled with a little embarrassment. She looked around and saw that no one noticed them, so she coughed lightly and said, "Are you thirsty? I Go get some water for everyone."

After that, he got up and walked out of the conference room.

Seeing her leaving, Lin Xin raised her head, stared at her tall and straight back, and then lowered her head again to look at her right hand, which accidentally touched her hand just now. She could feel that although it was not a slippery hand, it was warm enough.

Lin Xin raised her hand and touched her cheek, there was some heat there, and then she put her hand on her heart, there was also some strangeness there, pulsating non-stop.

Not long after, Leng Yu brought in a bag of mineral water and put it on the table next to him, then took two bottles by himself, handed one to Lin Xin, and said lightly: "Take a sip of water, let's see how hot you are." Got... blushed."

Lin Xin:......
