It was raining lightly and was gloomy.

Wei Xiaolong parked the car outside the Red Leaf Studio and glanced up.

The small building in the rain and fog is deep and quiet, standing alone in a withered dense forest. Approaching the Chinese New Year, nearby businesses have put out announcements of closure, and there are few pedestrians on the streets, and it is as empty as a lonely city.

He was not at ease: "I'll accompany you up." ”

Yu Xiuxiu hesitated, "Teacher Momiji has a strange temper, she doesn't like to come into contact with strangers. It is especially repulsive for men. ”

Wei Xiaolong was silent, "Then, I'll wait for you outside." ”

Yu Xiuxiu nodded, pushed the door down, and disappeared into the rain and fog.

It's the holiday season, and the studio is quiet, as if there is no one. Yu Xiuxiu frowned, stood at the foot of the steps and called Bi Hongye.

The phone went through.

Bi Hongye did not pick up.

But the door carved in wood opened.

On a rainy day, there was no light inside, it was dark, and Bi Hongye's face was hidden in the dim light and shadow, as if covered with a dead silence. She propped her hands on the door, looked at Yu Xiuxiu, looked at each other for a moment, and smiled slowly, as gentle as ever.

"You're here. ”

Yu Xiuxiu: "Teacher Hongye, what are you...... What's wrong?"

Bi Hongye lowered his hands and turned around: "Come in and say." ”

Yu Xiuxiu cautiously walked up the steps and followed her into the hall of the studio.

I used to come here, flowers, incense, fine paintings, high-end furnishings, like an art palace. But it's too cold here today, and there's no popularity.

Yu Xiuxiu was unwell, sat on the sofa, looked around, and found that Bi Hongye did not greet her warmly as usual, but sat opposite and looked at her silently.

"Teacher Momiji......" Yu Xiuxiu looked into her eyes, "You can say anything about it." I listened. ”

The wait time is unusually long.

Bi Hongye didn't know what he was thinking, for a long time, he sighed slowly: "I lied to you." I'm not looking for you to decorate. ”

Yu Xiuxiu: "I guessed. ”

Bi Hongye was slightly stunned, "Then why do you still want to come?"

"Because I feel that you may need me very much." Otherwise, you wouldn't be in such a hurry to urge me during the New Year. ”

"I need you, so you're here?"

"You are my respected teacher, and I am your little fan. You need me, even if the heavens are stabbing, I will come. ”

Bi Hongye suddenly smiled, "You are a good boy, serious, intelligent, and kind." But I—I think, I let you down. I don't deserve your respect. ”

"Why do you say that?"

"Don't you think my recent behavior is abnormal?"

"Hmm. Mr. Momiji, life is not all very satisfactory. My dad said that difficulty is a bastard, and when you touch us, you will swing your fist. Mr. Momiji, what trouble are you in, tell me about it, and I'll help you ......"

"Hehe!" Bi Hongye smiled again, putting her hands on her knees, maybe her knees were too cold, she rubbed them gently, and her voice slowed down a lot.

"The murderer was caught. ”

Yu Xiuxiu was shocked, and took it for granted that she was talking about the theft of the studio, "That's great." Did you get what you lost?"

Bi Hongye nodded.

After a pause, his eyes narrowed, "The real murderer who killed Liu Hexiang has also been found." ”

"Is there really a murderer, I always thought it was an accident. Yu Xiuxiu was a little puzzled.

"Not an accident. Bi Hongye calmly told her, "Liu Hexiang has a boyfriend on the Internet, and it is the Chen Hai who died on the Fucheng construction site." Actually, what kind of boyfriend is it, that's her life-seeking ghost. ”

"???" Yu Xiuxiu didn't understand what she was talking about.

Chen Hai took the initiative to catch Liu Hexiang because he knew that Liu Hexiang was rich. He disguised himself as a rich second generation, and sent this and that to Liu Hexiang without meeting, the girl was shallow-eyed and naturally fooled. The first time we met, we slept with someone. ”

“......”

Why tell her this?

Yu Xiuxiu looked at Bi Hongye and didn't speak. Bi Hongye didn't seem to see her doubts, and she was still smiling.

However, the lie was quickly debunked. Liu Hexiang found out that Chen Hai was just a construction worker and owed a lot of debts, and the money for giving her bags and jewelry was still from an online loan, so he broke up immediately. How could Chen Hai be willing? He didn't do anything, he simply took Liu Hexiang's bed and threatened her, asking her to help him pay off his debts......

“......”

"Liu Hexiang has been a junior for so many years, of course, he has some savings. However, how can people from small families and small families easily give people the money they have saved with great difficulty? She cried and begged, but Chen Hai was unmoved. After making a fuss for a while, she simply thought of a trick - she took the initiative to seduce He Xuzhang, the worker who opened the tower crane, and used the bad tricks used by Chen Hai to coerce and lure He Xuzhang, so that he could find a way to take advantage of the construction safety problem to kill Chen Hai and cause an accident......"

Yu Xiuxiu looked shocked.

"Why did she die herself?"

"That's her life. Bi Hongye said: "That day, Chen Hai sent her a message, saying that his online loan was due, and if Liu Hexiang didn't give him money, he would post bed photos all over Fucheng." Liu Hexiang was anxious and hateful, and immediately ran over to find him to theorize, but unexpectedly, the accident happened at this time. When He Xuzhang used the tower crane, he 'mistakenly' used a thinner wire rope. As a result, the wire rope was underload-bearing, broke suddenly, smashed on the falling platform, and crushed Chen Hai, and when the building materials fell, it just killed Liu Hexiang. You said...... Coincidence or not?"

"Qiao!"

Yu Xiuxiu seemed to be listening to the story, and he was stunned.

"But Mr. Momiji, how did you know so many details?

"The police did not disclose it. Bi Hongye looked at her and smiled.

"That's—"

Yu Xiuxiu looked at Bi Hongye's smiling face, and his back was cold.

"Momiji-sensei!"

It's her!

What the police didn't know, she knew.

Yu Xiuxiu suddenly understood, and his eyes widened.

"Yes, Liu Hexiang's gold lord is Ding Yuejin. Bi Hongye was very calm, he didn't say "our old man", and when he mentioned his name, there was no expression on his face, but Yu Xiu was frightened.

"Momiji-sensei, you ......"

Bi Hongye smiled, with a thick contempt in his eyes.

"A stupid and ignorant woman, two money-hungry and lustful men. With a little subterfuge, they can be killed. And Ding Yuejin, the dignified vice president of Shengtian, is well-educated and knowledgeable, and he actually likes such a superficial woman because of a young and beautiful face. Isn't it ridiculous, you say?"

Amusing.

But Yu Xiuxiu couldn't laugh.

Behind Bi Hongye, there is a room. As she spoke, the door shook violently, as it had happened that day, like someone banging on the door, banging but no sound.

Yu Xiuxiu's mind was a little confused, and he looked at the door.

"Momiji-sensei, why are you telling me this?"

Bi Hongye looked at her, still smiling, "Because this world has no meaning." Neither are the people. I'm tired of it. ”

As she spoke, she pulled out the drawer in front of her, took out a stamped and signed document from the document bag inside, and handed it to Yu Xiuxiu.

"These paintings, you like, are all given to you. Here's an example of a list with my signed name and a notarial deed. After you celebrate the New Year, find a time to pull it back. ”

"Me?" Yu Xiuxiu was shocked.

These paintings not only have Bi Hongye's own representative works, but also her lifelong collection. The value of these paintings is immeasurable!

"My daughter doesn't like art, and it's annoying to look at it more. Instead of forcing her to chew peonies, it is better to give it to someone who knows how to paint, so that she can cherish it. ”

“......”

Yu Xiuxiu was so shocked that he couldn't speak.

"What I'm going to say, when I'm done, you go back and have a good New Year. Bi Hongye stood up, walked to the door that was still clattering, and suddenly turned his head again, looking at Yu Xiuxiu and smiling.

"By the way, what you heard in the room that day was not a dog, but the dead assistant. ”

Yu Xiuxiu was stunned.

Bi Hongye: "The person who stabbed her to death was not a thief. It's me. ”

"......" why?

Why did she do that!

Yu Xiuxiu's blood began to cool, and he didn't know what expression to make, but Bi Hongye only smiled faintly.

"She betrayed me. Helped Ding Yuejin hide from me, he had someone outside, and he was still messing around with Ding Yuejin under my nose. ”

She suddenly raised her hand and pointed to the room.

"That room is the lounge I prepared for Ding Yuejin. Every time he came to me, he would rest in it. Can you believe it? I work in the studio, and the two of them are in it......."

She couldn't go on.

There was a bloodshot in his eyes.

What I wanted to say ended up choking in my throat.

"Alas, I originally thought that I would deal with it after the New Year, my daughter will return to China tomorrow, and our family of three can be together for a year...... But he couldn't wait, and he wouldn't give me the last chance. Hugh, you wait and get out of this door and help me call the police. ”

Yu Xiuxiu took a deep breath.

"Mr. Momiji, you can fight for ...... by turning yourself in"

She didn't finish her sentence, bang!

The door was slammed open, and a man with messy hair and dirty hair slammed out of it, his hands cut behind his back, his feet tied together with ropes, and he fell to the ground.

Yu Xiu Xiu sighed.

To his horror, he found that the person was actually Ding Yuejin.

"Are you so unbearable to be lonely?" Bi Hongye looked coldly at the man lying on the ground, "I just asked you to stay with me for a little longer, you can't stand it?"

Ding Yuejin stuffed strips of cloth in his mouth, tilted his head desperately, stared at her deadly, and looked at Yu Xiuxiu with pleading eyes, letting out a very low whimper.

"Huh!"

Bi Hongye suddenly smiled, put down his long hair, combed it with his fingers, and gently brushed it over his shoulders.

"Ding Yuejin, look at me. I've been young and pretty...... Have you forgotten?"

Her voice was soft.

Like a lover's whisper.

It's like a soul-boosting spell.

......
