Although the steakhouse was quite close to Lin Xi's apartment and the school, it was located between two points, and the other four insisted on sending her back to school first.

Delivered to the door of the community, Wang Yubin quipped, "Next time, please invite us to your house to play." ”

Lin Xi returned to the apartment, walked to the balcony and lit a cigarette. Nancheng University is located in the south of Nancheng City, and her balcony faces north, and you can see the high-rise buildings in the city center from a distance.

I packed up some clothes and toiletries and drove back to Mingyu Mansion. The neon lights flashing outside the car window are the most beautiful decoration at night.

When Lin Xi entered the gate of Mingyu Mansion, he was stopped again because the vehicle was not registered. Fortunately, this time it was an old doorman who recognized her and let her go after two greetings. She meditated in her heart that she couldn't be lazy anymore, and she had to register the car quickly.

Parking the car in the garage, she stepped in through the side door, the empty villa did not add a trace of popularity because of her visit last week, only the residual freshener in the air proved that Aunt Huang had come to clean it.

She threw everything onto the European-style sofa in the living room and went up to the bedroom on the second floor to take a bath. Turn the water in the shower to the hottest, and the huge bathroom is misty and obscured by the mist that blurs the vision.

Wrapped in a bathrobe and then down to the living room, the villa of Mingyu Mansion is large and empty, and it is even more quiet and scary at night. But Lin Xi was in no mood to scare himself at this time.

It was half past ten o'clock in the evening, but she didn't feel sleepy at the moment, and picked up her mobile phone. There are hundreds of messages in the [Sunset Red Elderly Social Group], most of which are emojis. Zhang Peng also sent a separate message to her to come out at night, but she didn't reply.

His gaze finally stayed on the message You Yang had sent an hour earlier. [The kidnapper of the year found something. 】

Lin Xi has been picked up and dropped off by a driver since she was a child, but once in her first year of high school, because of a dispute with Zhou Xiaotong, she avoided her driver and went to a small alley near No. 5 Middle School to plan to fight with her.

It was this opportunity that the kidnappers took advantage of this opportunity to kidnap people.

Lin Zhengxiong paid for the matter, and he didn't even call the police. Lin Xi knows, Lin Zhengxiong knows, and Secretary Yang knows. Now You Yang also knows.

When Lin Zhengxiong was in the car accident, Lin Xi was taking classes in the United States. After class, I found that I had received several missed calls from Secretary Yang, so I hurriedly replied to someone. When the other end of the phone was notified of the bad news, she felt as if she was not reacting.

Or the brain is blank and unable to respond.

Students who came and went in a hurry at the entrance of the school building rushed to the next class, and her petite body walked with a slow pace, out of place in the crowd. Until he was bumped into by a tall white student, the other party hurriedly turned around and said "Sorry", and turned around to rush to class.

She skipped all the classes in the afternoon, went back to the apartment and packed a carry-on bag and rushed to the airport. The plane that took off from the local international airport in the afternoon could not catch up, and the private jet Yang was too tight to coordinate, so Secretary Yang finally booked a flight for her to take off from LA in the early morning of the next day.

By the time she set foot on the land of Nancheng, it was already nearly two days after the domestic incident.

The mobile phone was filled with messages from all sides, and Secretary Yang put her luggage and rushed to the morgue. When she arrived at the hospital, there was a large crowd standing at the door of the morgue.

Huizi hurriedly stepped forward to comfort her when she appeared, and at this time, Lin Xi had not closed his eyes for more than 24 hours. Her body was desperately sleep-deficient, her nerves were like a leather rope that had been pulled to the extreme, and she felt like she was still floating in the air, and everything was not real.

Chen Shihan cried into tears in Wen Renjin's arms, because her mother Qian Fen was still lying in the morgue at this time.

Wen Renjin had never seen Lin Xi so depressed, and he wanted to step forward and hold him tightly in his arms.

But she was surrounded by a group of friends.

There is no place for him.

Compared with Chen Shihan's mood of crying and fainting, and the sad faces of the people around him, Lin Xi was just in a trance, and the whole person was calm and worried.

Dozens of hours ago, Lin Xi stood on a campus in a foreign country, and he was also so out of place.

Doctors and police officers took her into the morgue and lifted the white cloth that covered the body. The blood stains had been cleaned up, there were dark bruises on his forehead, and Lin Zhengxiong looked peaceful with his eyes closed, just sleeping in the past.

Lin Xi's leather rope, which had been stretched all day, was tightened again, and her throat suddenly became sore, and she swallowed hard, suppressing the bitter emotion.

Raising his eyes to look at the doctor, he opened his mouth slightly, his voice trembling and hoarse, "Cover it." ”

Her eyes were so dry that they stinged, and the lacrimal glands were no longer secreting the fluid that could moisten them.

After returning to Mingyu in the afternoon after coming out of the hospital, she went to the wine cellar to get a bottle of red wine, walked through the restaurant to the backyard, looked at the man-made lake, and lit a cigarette.

Two puffs of cigarettes, one puff of wine. It wasn't until the cigarette case was half empty and a bottle of red wine was at the bottom that she dragged her trembling steps back into the house and fell asleep on the sofa.

She was woken up by Wen Renjin, and the invisible in her eye sockets was about to crack, and the moment she opened her eyes, the light and the invisible thorn cracked together, making her cry out in pain "Ah", and closed her eyes again.

She heard the man get up, and there was a "snap", and the light source through the eyelids dimmed, and she slowly opened her eyes again.

"Why are you here. Her voice was like a parched river, coming from a crack in her throat.

Lin Xi ...... "The man wanted to ask her if she was okay, but he felt that such a question was meaningless.

After being silent for a long time, Lin Xi only felt that his body was hanging in the air, and he was picked up by Wen Renjin and walked to the second floor.

She didn't have the strength to struggle, and pressed her fingertips to her swollen and sore eyes, "What are you going to do?" ”

Wen Renjin didn't speak, carried her to the bed side of the bedroom, and let go. He reached out to pick up the broken hair scattered on her forehead, but Lin Xi subconsciously avoided it. Wen Renjin's hand paused in the air for a moment, and then slowly retracted it.

"Go wash up, the police are still waiting for you. ”

didn't even have the strength to sneer, Lin Xi didn't look at him, and walked past Wen Renjin into the bathroom.

Changed into a black suit and wore a small black high-neck tights underneath. She wasn't in the mood to clean up her haggard face and find the largest pair of sunglasses to clip on the bridge of her nose.

It was already 9 p.m. when Wen Renjin drove her to the police station, and she was a little sorry for making the police officer who handled the case wait for her for so long, and felt "great" that she could still think about others at this time.

The police recounted the situation of the incident, the big truck at the intersection ran a red light, the black Bentley was directly hit on the guardrail, and the truck continued to rush forward under the force of inertia, until the Bentley hit the deformation and stuck in the middle of the guardrail and the truck before stopping.

She doesn't have the soul that others imagine, and no one can see the look under the sunglasses.

Everyone watched her reaction, and there was a long silence in the office.

When she spoke again, her voice was hoarse, and she said slowly, "Can I take a look at the surveillance?" ”

On the other side of the police station, Ye Zeyan and Captain Shi sat at the conference table, watching the projector play the monitoring at the time of the accident.

Headquartered in Nancheng, Lavida is a leading enterprise in the country, and its social influence should not be underestimated. Ye Youliang, director of the Provincial Public Security Department, and his cadres deployed an investigation into the car accident. The mayor of Nancheng also ordered that information should be kept tightly sealed to minimize the impact on society and the families of the deceased.

When the surveillance was played to the first impact, Lin Xi did not let people turn off the video, and she closed her eyes through her sunglasses. She was too well protected to accept the gore of this reality. She finally looked at the name tag of the police officer sitting in front of the computer.

After explaining the matter and walking out of the office, the conference room on the other side had been dispersed for a while, Qi Xiuyuan and his mayor's mother were waiting at the door, and saw Lin Xi come out and comfort her a few words.

"Lin Xi, the police will conduct further investigation into the car accident, and we will also block the news. You can rest assured that you will take care of the aftermath, and we will arrange the rest for you. Qi Xiuyuan's mother came up and hugged her shoulders.

Qi Xiuyuan gave Lin Xi a big hug, "You still have our group of buddies." ”

The boy couldn't say those pretentious words, Lin Xi pulled out an ugly smile and thanked him, "Thank you for your hard work, you and Auntie should go back to rest early." ”

When Qi Xiuyuan and his mother walked past Wen Renjin who was waiting in the lobby of the police station, they all glanced at the man with a gloomy face, and left without saying a word.

Wen Renjin walked towards Lin Xi and looked at her for a moment. Her eyes were hidden under her sunglasses, and she could only see the woman's restless mood from the tight pursing of her drooping lips.

"I'll send you back. ”

Lin Xi took out the cigarette case from her bag, "What about Chen Shihan, she didn't come?" She is also one of the victims' families.

"Already back. ”

"Then you should hurry up and leave. Lin Xi pinched the popping beads, walked to the door of the police station and lit a cigarette.

"You're in a bad mood right now, I'll send you back first. ”

There were more than a dozen police cars parked at the entrance of the police station, and then outside was a main road, and at this o'clock the traffic was sparse, and from time to time a few cars whizzed by.

Lin Xi took a deep breath, and the ups and downs were so big that he could see the rise and fall of his shoulders.

"The last person I want to see right now is you," she tried to keep her composure, "if you're really worried about my safety, the trouble will go away now." ”

Lin Xi was wearing sunglasses on her face, making it difficult to see her appearance. Wen Renjin stood one step away from Lin Xi, and waited until she had finished smoking a cigarette and still didn't move.

Lin Xi suddenly thought of something and raised his head, and the corners of his mouth hooked a disdainful smile, "Anyway, my dad's car accident has nothing to do with you, right?"

Wen Renjin frowned, he was used to Lin Xi's cynicism, but he was still very unhappy and irritable at the moment. I opened my mouth to say something.

A month before Lin Zhengxiong's accident, he knew that Brother G's people had recently returned to Nancheng. He was worried that Brother G would take action against the people around him and protect all the people around him, and he also had an extra heart, and communicated with foreign forces, so that people secretly followed her for protection.

He calculated the outlaw's plan, but he didn't expect Brother G to be bold enough to attack Lin Zhengxiong directly.

Now that the driver involved in the accident has no proof of death, the police may not be able to find anything.

Also dead was Qian Fen in the car.

At this time, he didn't know whether Brother G was just trying to start with Chen Shihan and target her mother Qian Fen.

Or even Lin Xi will be in danger.

If it was the latter, he shouldn't have too much to do with Lin Xi at this time.

Brother G was not bold enough to attack Lin Xi at the police station, and Wen Renjin finally pursed his thin lips and walked away.

Sitting in the back seat of the black car, the man was surrounded by gloom. Qiang Zai glanced in the rearview mirror, "Boss, are you going back to the Tang Dynasty?"

"Let Ah Wei follow Lin Xi, and send more people around her to follow. ”

"Boss, Ah Wei has always been your personal ......" Qiang Zai wanted to say something more, and the cruel gaze cast from the back seat, he could feel it from the changes in the air without facing it. Don't dare to say anything more, hurry up and inform it.

Lin Xi watched the Porsche drive out of the police station, took out another cigarette from the cigarette case, sat on the top step of the steps with his legs bent, and buried himself in it with his knees hugged like an ostrich. Finally, the string snapped and snapped.
