After eating at the Western restaurant, Shen Lingshan had to take Lin Manshu to go shopping together.

"Don't go. Lin Manshu refused.

Finally found someone to accompany her, Shen Lingshan would not give up easily, she pestered Lin Manshu and said, "Oh, you just go, anyway, you have nothing to do recently." ”

"You have to go shopping with friends, and the two of us are enemies. You'd better go find your friends. Lin Manshu said, although she said so, she had already regarded Shen Lingshan as a friend in her heart.

"I don't have any friends. Shen Lingshan said frankly.

Lin Manshu stared at Shen Lingshan with a look of disbelief for a long time. Shen Lingshan saw that she didn't believe it, so she explained: "Those people are too worldly, and I disdain to deal with them. So like you, I don't have anyone to go shopping with. ”

After Shen Lingshan finished speaking, she walked forward, she didn't walk fast, as if she was deliberately waiting for Lin Manshu. Looking at her back, Lin Manshu suddenly felt that this old classmate of hers might be as lonely as her.

Although Lin Manshu is usually cold, she still cares about the people around her. Just like the last time Xiao Mubai's father's sacrifice day, when she learned that Xiao Mubai was in a bad mood, she and Xiao Mubai drank together. Seeing Shen Lingshan like this this time, she also made a heart-warming move.

Lin Manshu silently walked to Shen Lingshan's side, paced forward with her, and said, "Where are you going?"

"What, where?" Shen Lingshan asked as she looked sideways at Lin Manshu.

"Aren't you going shopping, where are you going?" asked Lin Manshu.

Shen Lingshan asked in surprise, "Do you mean to go shopping with me?" Wow...... So touched, enough friends, come, hug one. She said that she was going to hug Lin Manshu.

Lin Manshu directly ignored her request for a hug and avoided it far away, even with a disgusted expression on her face.

Soon, Lin Manshu regretted it. Because Shen Lingshan really came to go shopping. Pull her to look at this for a while, and look at that for a while.

"Eh, come and see this, this one looks so good, cute. Shen Lingshan was holding two antler headdresses, so she had to take them with her.

"Wow, this dress looks so good, why don't we all buy one." After a while, I walked to the clothing store, and Shen Lingshan said again.

"Refuse!"

Compared with Shen Lingshan's excited appearance like a little girl, Lin Manshu was much calmer. She wouldn't take the initiative to go in at the point she passed by, and she was usually dragged in by Shen Lingshan. Occasionally, Shen Lingshan would give Lin Manshu some hats, accessories and other things to wear, but she was disgusted.

When the two of them go shopping, it's like a boyfriend accompanying his girlfriend to go shopping. One is expressionless and has no fun, and the other is full of joy and walks around like a curious baby.

When the two of them were shopping, Xiao Mubai and Xiao Hanyu were still busy with the serial murder case.

"The person who gave An Lu and Zhao Jie roses is Wang Xin, they are both parties to the school violence case twelve years ago, I am afraid there is some connection between them. Xiao Mubai said.

"No matter what the connection is, now that An Lu and Zhao Jie are dead, I'm afraid the only one who can explain our doubts is Wang Xin. Xiao Hanyu said.

With such a summary, the two decided to go to Wang Xin's house to find her first. Xiao Mubai asked the police force to find the address of Wang Xin's house and went with Xiao Hanyu.

After the two arrived at Wang Xin's house, they knocked on the door for a long time, but no one answered.

"Don't knock, this girl hasn't been back for more than a month. ”

The knocking sound of Xiao Mubai and Xiao Hanyu on the door disturbed the other residents, and an old man came out and said.

"Uncle, do you know what she's going to do?" Xiao Mubai asked.

"I don't know, she hasn't been back for a long time anyway. The eldest lord said.

"Then did she say where she was going when she left?" asked Han Yu again.

"How do I know this? The young people now don't like to talk to us who come and can't talk to each other. After the uncle finished speaking, he went back to his home.

"She hasn't appeared for a month, so where did she go?" asked Xiao Hanyu curiously.

"I'll check her entry and exit records again, maybe to another city. The florist records that she ordered flowers online* and does not have to stay at home. Xiao Mubai said.

There is almost no trace of this case, there are no surveillance records, no witnesses, no physical evidence, and it is involved in a case from 12 years ago. It can be said that it is difficult to check.

"How do you see me wearing this dress?" Shen Lingshan finally stopped walking around endlessly, but started the mode of trying on clothes endlessly.

Lin Manshu had no love on her face, if she could turn back time, she would never agree to Shen Lingshan's invitation to go shopping.

"Good looking. Lin Manshu didn't even look at Shen Lingshan, and said perfunctorily.

"It doesn't look like this one works. Shen Lingshan looked in front of the mirror and said dissatisfied.

Lin Manshu has always said the opposite, which Shen Lingshan knows very well. So she went back to looking at her clothes.

After a while, Shen Lingshan came out again, turned around in front of Lin Manshu in her skirt, and asked, "Is it good-looking?"

"Good looking. Lin Manshu still said perfunctorily.

Shen Lingshan pursed her lips and said, "It seems that this one won't work either." ”

…… She changed several sets of clothes back and forth, and now she has changed into a black and white striped skirt, and she has a little more mature charm in this dress.

Lin Manshu finally looked at her now, looked up and down, and said, "It's not good-looking." Then he took the bag and left.

Shen Lingshan smiled with satisfaction and said to the waiter, "That's it." ”

The two were wandering around the mall, and there was nothing left to buy. was about to go out, when suddenly Gu Mingsheng and Ding Lan appeared in front of him.

"What a coincidence, Lawyer Lin, I actually met you here. It just so happens that I bought you something, you can take it back. Ding Lan (Xiao's mother) said and handed the paper bag in her hand to Lin Manshu.

"No need. Lin Manshu didn't plan to answer, and replied in an estranged tone.

"Oh, you can continue, this is also a piece of my heart and your aunt's heart. Gu Mingsheng said on the side.

"Yes, yes, this is the clothes you just tried on, and my aunt happened to pass by and saw that you looked good in it, so she bought it. As she spoke, Xiao's mother stuffed the bag of clothes into Lin Manshu's hand, and then left with Gu Mingsheng.

Lin Manshu watched the two leave, not knowing what to say, but she suddenly became a little suspicious. From what they said just now, it seemed that they had been following Lin Manshu.

About half an hour ago, Shen Lingshan and Lin Manshu went to a women's clothing store. Shen Lingshan jumped a pink and white coat to Lin Manshu, and asked her to give it a try. Lin Manshu couldn't resist Shen Lingshan, so she could only give it a try.

This pink and white coat looks good on Lin Manshu, lining her cold white complexion more textured. Her flaxen-colored curls draped over her clothes were the perfect combination.

"It's good, it's good, and suddenly I think it's perfect for you to wear pink, so buy it." Shen Lingshan, who was on the side, said.

Lin Manshu glanced at herself in the mirror lightly, and then said, "I don't like it." After that, he took off his coat and returned it to the clerk.

"Isn't this the clothes you just tried on, who are those two people? Shen Lingshan looked at the clothes in the bag and said.

"I don't know. Lin Manshu replied.

I really don't know each other, although she has met Xiao Mubai's parents a few times, but she still doesn't know who the other party is, and she doesn't know what they do? But she seems to have some clue now.

Back home, Lin Manshu dialed a phone number in order to verify.

"Oh, old man, Manshu is calling. It was Lin Manshu's mother who spoke, and she was simply surprised and delighted to see Lin Manshu's number.

"I'll see, I'll see. Dad Lin hurried over, for fear that he would miss it if it was too late.

The last time the two old men went to find Lin Manshu, it caused her sadness. They also know that their original actions have brought a lot of negative emotions to their two children. The youngest son had passed away, and they didn't want to stimulate their daughter anymore, so when they saw the emotional Lin Manshu, they left immediately.

Lin Manshu had not been in contact with them for a long time, and now she was naturally happy to contact the two old men suddenly, as if she had seen hope. Looking at their gray hair, they are really old.

"Hey, Manshu. Mother Lin turned on the hands-free and said.

"Have you arranged someone around me?" Lin Manshu's cold questioning voice came from there.

It turned out that Lin Manshu thought that Gu Mingsheng and Ding Lan were people sent by her parents, and because she didn't see them, she found someone else to care about her. Thanks to Xiao Mubai's parents, Lin Manshu's parents waited for their daughter's first call in seven years.

The two old men glanced at each other, and Dad Lin said, "No, don't worry, Mom and Dad know that you like us to appear, and we won't go to you in the future, and we won't bother you." ”

"yes, yes, we won't bother your life anymore. Mother Lin also assured.

"That's good. Lin Manshu said coldly, and hung up the phone after speaking.

"Man-sook...... Manshu ...... "The two old men still wanted to say a few more words to Lin Manshu, but she had already hung up the phone.

Only with such a brief exchange, they were naturally a little lost. But he still comforted himself: "It's okay, it's okay, it's good to call." ”

Lin Manshu, who hung up the phone, suddenly felt a little melancholy, and for some reason her parents looked old in front of her. She stood there for a long, long time, not knowing what she was thinking. One thing is for sure, though, this time she neither had shaking hands nor could she breathe. It seems that the conversation with her parents will no longer make her feel bad.

The last rays of the setting sun also disappeared into the sky, and the room was not lit up, losing the light of the sun, and it also went dark. Lin Manshu stood in the darkness, looking out of the dark window. She likes to be in the dark, because under the cover of the night, others cannot see her sorrow.
