"yes. Lao Xia replied very simply.

"How do you know I didn't come back last night?" Xiang Kun said strangely.

"I don't know. Lao Xia said, "Don't you get up early every morning to run?" I was going to tell you when you came down to run. ”

Xiang Kun thought about it, in the past few days in Tongshi Town, except for the first night in the hotel, for the next three consecutive days, he ran errands at night, and then came back every morning under the pretext of running in the morning to buy breakfast.

"Then what if I am lazy today and don't get up and run?" Xiang Kun said deliberately.

"I called my cousin to get up, and she said she was going to drop me off last night. Lao Xia said.

Well, Yang Laosan, the king of the bed......

Xiang Kun drove the car out of the parking lot and drove onto the road, just as he was about to ask what games they were playing in the hotel after he left last night, but Xia Libing spoke first: "You didn't see Deputy Director Liu last night, did you?"

Xiang Kun glanced at Lao Xia in the co-pilot with some surprise and said, "I see." ”

"That is, after you met Deputy Director Liu, you went to do something else, and you were busy all night. Xia Libing said with certainty.

Xiang Kun didn't deny it, nor did he immediately make up a reason, but asked a little strangely: "Why do you say that?" He felt a little hairy in his heart, because Lao Xia usually spoke very little, and when he spoke, he usually spoke very concisely, once he wanted to turn on the "chatterbox" mode, there must be something.

"Because I just said 'Didn't you go back to the hotel last night?'. Xia Libing said.

"What's wrong with my answer?" Xiang Kun thought back to his response just now, it should be said that it was very rough, there was a lot of room for change and explanation, and even strictly speaking, it was not a lie.

Xia Libing turned his head to look at him, and said slowly: "When you left the hotel last night, you said that Deputy Director Liu was looking for you. So according to your personality, under normal circumstances, the answer just now will directly explain that it was too late to talk to Deputy Director Liu last night, and then spend the night in a specific place. You are more resistant to lying to people you know well, so you don't lie directly unless you have to, and prefer to use vague language to guide others in the direction you want to go. ”

Xiang Kun was stunned when he heard this, and after thinking about it carefully, it seemed that he really had this habit, especially when he needed to hide the secret of his mutation into a vampire, and there was no pressure to lie in the face of people he didn't know or didn't know well, and he would only consider whether there was any hidden danger of exposure, but when facing relatives and friends, he hoped that he wouldn't lie as much as possible - although sometimes it was just a kind of self-comfort, because under the guidance of his language, he still achieved the effect of lying.

But Lao Xia only relied on this to conclude that he was going to do something else?

Xia Libing seemed to know his doubts, and continued: "Although your shoes have obviously been rubbed, there are still many traces of mountain mud on the uppers, and compared to last night, your shoes are very badly worn, and your pants are the same, there is a smell of trees and mud, you should have entered the mountain yesterday." But there is no trace of your coat, indicating that you did not wear it when you entered the mountain. ”

Xiang Kun was silent, it was not too surprising that Lao Xia noticed this.

Last night, according to the information he heard during the day, he went to the area where the tourists in the mountains took pictures, in fact, he didn't have any hope, he just wanted to see the traces that the "mutant big bird" might leave behind, and then the focus would be on Miqiao and the others to observe the investigation methods of the "Shenxing Technology".

So he just left his coat in the car, and did not change his other clothes, nor did he take off his shoes and bare feet as he had done in many mountainous areas before. When he entered the mountain, he himself was very careful not to stain his shoes and pants.

But he didn't expect to find the "mutant bird" directly last night, and in the later time, he had too many problems to consider, so he naturally didn't care about whether his clothes and shoes were soiled and worn.

In the process of quickly moving between the position of observing the "mutant big bird" and listening to the position of the "Shenxing technology", basically ignoring all the difficult terrain, shuttling through the lush forest without a road, and climbing the steep cliff wall, all more than once, under this intensity, the traces of wear and tear left are naturally not small.

Normally, though, this isn't a big deal.

Before getting into the car, he simply cleaned the mud and other marks on his clothes and shoes, and then put on the thick cotton jacket that he had not worn into the mountains, which covered most of the marks and smells, and he believed that ordinary people would not notice. The other nine friends who came to Copperstone Town with him this time probably won't notice.

And in his opinion, after he came back, he went back to the hotel room directly, and Zicheng, who was called to open the door, must have slept in a daze, and naturally he would not notice anything wrong, and he would take a shower and change his clothes.

As a result, he met Lao Xia in the lobby, and Lao Xia noticed these details.

Lao Xia not only has sharp eyes, but also a very smart nose.

Speaking of which, it is actually because Xiang Kun did not regard the friends in the hotel as objects that need to be highly guarded and vigilant.

Xiang Kun was pondering how to answer and explain where he was going last night, but Xia Libing continued: "When you took us back to the 'Youlong Hotel' yesterday, I glanced at the odometer, it was 116456 kilometers, and when I just got in the car, I saw 116531 kilometers.

"But if you went to the vicinity of Chongyun Village, you should have said vaguely that you would spend the night in Chongyun Village just now, making me think that you were staying at Deputy Director Liu's house, but you didn't say that, so I prefer that you went to Wushu Mountain Scenic Area last night.

"When it comes to your state in the scenic spot during the day yesterday, I guess you may not have been completely unwell at the time, but worried about something, and you were dealing with that last night. The two drivers yesterday may have something to do with that incident.

"You don't look very tired right now, so it shouldn't be too strenuous to deal with, and you probably slept for a while.

"Judging from your expression and body movements when you entered the hotel just now, although you were not very excited, you were not frustrated, and it should have been smooth to deal with that matter last night. ”

When Xia Libing spoke, Xiang Kun looked ahead and drove quietly without interjecting.

On the surface, Xiang Kun had a faint smile on the corner of his mouth, and his expression did not change, as if there was no wave, but Xiang Kun's mouth in his heart had opened into a big O-shape.

He had long known that Lao Xia had been observing his every move, and he had probably seen something, and he had always thought that the cognitive model established by Lao Xia was relatively perfect. But listening to what Lao Xia just said, he found that there were still many deviations from the original cognitive model, and he still "underestimated" Lao Xia.

Just this speculation and analysis, except for the incorrect connection between the two drivers and the incident, there is nothing wrong with other directions.

The carriage was quiet for a while, and Xiang Kun looked up and found that he had arrived at the train station unconsciously.

"When are you going back for the Spring Festival?" said Xiang Kun, but it had nothing to do with the previous topic at all.

"I'm not going back. Xia Libing said.

"Why?" Xiang Kun was a little surprised.

"My parents didn't come back when they were abroad, and the hospital was short of people on duty, so I applied. Xia Libing said simply, and returned to the usual state of cherishing words like gold.

"Oh, I'll give you a pair of chopsticks when I go back, you remember to check. Xiang Kun nodded, and said something brainless, but Xia Libing nodded "Okay" without any doubts.

At this time, the car had already stopped at the train station, and after Xia Libing took his backpack, he also said something clueless: "Do you still have a lucky coin?"

Xiang Kun was stunned for a moment, and said with some tears and laughter: "You mean I gave Nana that coin, right? You all know that it's a 'lucky coin', how can there be so many? I'm not a 'god of luck'." ”

"You can give the 'little apple' that way. Xia Libing said again.

Xiang Kun said strangely: "Do you still know that I give 'Little Apple' coins?" He told "Little Apple" not to tell others about "Parasite Perception", he believed that "Little Apple" would not say it, even if she had a good relationship with Tang Baona, Yang Zhen'er, and Xia Libing now, she would not say it.

"In the past two days, we have been practicing finger 'flipping coins' together, and when I was on video with her last night, Nana said that her coin was a 'lucky coin' from you, and Little Apple said that the coin she used was also given by you, and you didn't tell her if it was a 'lucky coin', but she thought the coin was also quite 'lucky'. Xia Libing quickly explained, stretching out his hand as he spoke, as if he was sure that Xiang Kun still had a "lucky coin" there.

Xiang Kun turned to face her, pretending to stretch out his ten fingers and move quickly in front of her, with a posture of wanting to do magic: "I do have a coin here, but it's not a 'lucky coin', it's not an 'ordinary coin', it's ...... A universal coin!" As soon as the words fell, a coin flipped between Xiang Kun's index and middle fingers in Xiang Kun's dazzling finger movements, and then gently placed it in Xia Libing's palm.

"This coin looks ordinary, but it actually has a bit of a history......"

Xiang Kun was about to use his brain to give this coin a little story, but Xia Libing directly stuffed the coin into his trouser pocket: "Go back and chat on WeChat." Then he got out of the car with his backpack and walked towards the entrance.

Watching Xia Libing's tall back and swaying ponytail disappear into the crowd of pit stops, Xiang Kun smiled helplessly, and tapped his fingers lightly on the steering wheel, thoughtfully.

Thinking back to what Xia Libing said on the road just now, he suddenly realized that it was not that his cognitive model of Lao Xia was too biased, but that Lao Xia suddenly changed his habits.

In fact, there were many things and situations before, and Xia Libing saw more than others and was more thorough than others, but most of the time, she was the same as Xiang Kun, she saw through it without saying it, and did not directly uncover the lid of other people's pots, even if she said it, she only said part of it, leaving more room and room for temptation between each other.

But today, Lao Xia obviously put aside his previous behavior pattern, used a more ferocious straight ball, and directly lifted the lid of Xiang Kun's pot: "Let me see what you're cooking?"

However, after that analysis, Lao Xia didn't want to get any answers from him, didn't ask him to determine whether those analyses and guesses were right, and didn't ask him to tell him where he went and what he did last night, as if he was simply telling Xiang Kun that she saw what Xiang Kun was hiding and how to see it.

So, why?

Why did Lao Xia do this?

What is the picture?

There is also the coin, what abnormality did she find out about the coin through analysis and observation, or did she have any special sense of the "lucky coin" in Tang Baona's hand?

If it weren't for any special perception of that coin, according to Lao Xia's character, he wouldn't have asked him for it.

This is also to say to him:

There's a problem with the coin, and I can see it!

Xiang Kun was not worried about Lao Xia seeing these situations, because he was very sure that Lao Xia had no ill will towards him, but it was not pure curiosity, as if the reason why Lao Xia paid so much attention to him was that there were other motivations and other reasons.

Xiang Kun pondered, after he really succeeded in perceiving Lao Xia's emotions according to the previous plan, or triggered her dreams, if he could find the reason for Lao Xia's special feedback under the "emotional injection" items, and find out her motivation to pay so much attention to herself, maybe he could be a little "open and honest" to Lao Xia, and "share" his knowledge of Lao Xia with her.

......

On the train, Xia Libing put the backpack on the luggage rack, but before that, she took out her black leather notebook from the bag.

Once seated, she took out a B5 notebook page full of black circles and arcs from the leather notebook and unfolded it, looking at the lines on it, flipping her fingers over the one-dollar coin that Xiang Kun had just given her.

The coin flipped between her slender fingers, pinched and pushed from her thumb and forefinger, plucked with her middle finger and pushed with her index finger, relayed with her ring finger, held it with her little finger, and met her palm and thumb, and there was another reincarnation.

The coins are flipped more and more skillfully, but Xia Libing is more and more sure that the coins that Xiang Kun gave her have a better "feel" and are more comfortable to flip.

This should not be a psychological effect, but a real and objective characteristic.

"What could be the reason?"

Xia Libing asked this question again in his heart.

Of course, she knew that the "origin" that Xiang Kun was going to talk about at that time must have been made up improvised, so she didn't bother to listen to it at all.

Just now in the car, she didn't actually tell Xiang Kun all the results of her analysis.

Just like she said that she saw that Xiang Kun was in good spirits in the morning and was not very tired, so she speculated that she didn't exert too much physical strength last night, and even if she entered the mountain, she shouldn't have walked for a long time.

But that's just speculation under normal circumstances.

In fact, Xia Libing discovered a long time ago that Xiang Kun's physical fitness and physical fitness are very strong, and there are many "extraordinary" points in his body, so he can't speculate about "normal conditions".

What's more, judging from the wear and dirt of Xiang Kun's shoes and pants, his exercise last night couldn't be smaller.

Linked to the specificity of the body, it is the aspect of diet, and Xiang Kun also has a very big speciality.

With the physical fitness, strength, and size he showed, he should normally eat a lot of food, and he has never shown a matching amount of food.

Once or twice a while, it can also be explained by eating small meals more often or having no appetite, but Xia Libing and Xiang Kun have already eaten a lot of meals together. In the past few days, most of the main meals have been eaten together, so under the condition of keeping a careful observation of Xiang Kun, she can basically grasp Xiang Kun's food intake.

He seemed to be eating normally at every meal, but it was still too little compared to his consumption, and he didn't show the appetite that he should have.

Just like cousin Xia Tianhuo, he is also a muscular man, he eats very, very large, and is like a starving ghost reincarnated, very easy to get hungry. Every time I say I'm full, I'm not hungry, but as long as there's something delicious, I'll still eat a little bit to taste it...... Then eat more and more.

The larger the displacement, the greater the base consumption, even if it idles, it consumes the fuel that others can run normally. People with a lot of muscle, as soon as their eyes are opened, they will consume a lot more calories than others every day, and if they don't eat, they will lose muscles, so they will be very greedy, which is the instinct of the body.

Xiang Kun's restraint on food is very abnormal.
