32. Transactions
If you go directly to the boy's door without saying hello, you will usually see a mess when you enter the door, but Ye Shichao's home is very clean, or too clean, the simple Nordic style decoration is so simple that it can't be more concise, and there is not even any extra decoration, so it is not as good as the hotel to feel at home.
People who lost their parents in childhood will have a wrong concept of home, some people will be desperate to have a new family, will marry prematurely, and organize a family, while some people will deliberately avoid the word "home", and there will be no home after that, only a place to live. In his mind, this house was just a place to live, not his home.
"I put the food in the kitchen. In order to hide the strangeness in his expression, Xin Pet lowered his head and went to the kitchen, and asked while putting down the things in his hand: "Have you eaten?" ”
"I've eaten it. Ye Shichao dried his hair and unbuttoned his bathrobe, "Housekeeping comes every day and buys vegetables to cook." ”
Xin Pet said "oh" and walked out of the kitchen, Ye Shichao was already wearing pants, and he was wearing a shirt with his upper body naked, maybe it was because he had been in the laboratory all year round, his skin was very white, and the scar extending from his left shoulder to his back was even more hideous.
Xin Pet was stunned for a moment, then looked away, she remembered the car accident that caused his father's death, he was also in the car when the car accident happened, and it was estimated that he was injured at that time.
She was stunned, Ye Shichao had already put on her shirt, brushed her wet hair twice, and looked at her, "Since you're here, come and help me see what I missed." ”
With that, he walked up to the second floor.
The study room is the same as the downstairs, it is a completely decorated sample room, at this time the "sample room" is a bit messy, the desk is full of files, the entire whiteboard wall is full of photos, and there are many clues written on the whiteboard pen.
Sure enough, it was the car accident where his father died, and the information was very detailed. He even relied on his own memory to sort out his father's whereabouts a few days before the car accident, as well as everything he did and every word he said.
The car accident was typical, a grieving father took his children out for a walk, drove to the heart lake park on the outskirts of the city, and crashed into the guardrail of the lake in order to avoid a black off-road vehicle driving in the wrong direction. The father was thrown out of the car and fell into the lake because he was not wearing a seat belt, and the child in the back seat was not in danger of life because he was wearing a seat belt, but his back was scratched by broken glass that flew in, but fortunately, it was only skin trauma.
The whiteboard was plastered with photos of the scene of the crash, photos of my father falling into the lake, and photos of him being recovered, as well as the off-road vehicle that caused the crash, and photos of each of the traumas after the car was crashed.
In good conscience, the police handled this case very carefully, and there was really nothing to find fault with, Xin Pet watched it for a long time, and then went to see the information on the retrograde off-road vehicle sorted out by Ye Shichao.
The owner of the off-road vehicle is named Li Qiang, 32 years old, who is in the decoration business, and came to S City from his hometown Z City to talk about business, because he was not familiar with the road, which led to the wrong direction, which led to the car accident.
Xin Pet looked at Li Qiang's photo and the off-road car at the scene of the accident, and frowned slightly.
"He is 1.7 meters tall, thin, pale and bloodless, with Sichuan characters in the center of his eyebrows, dark lips, obvious bruises and needle eyes on his wrists, and comfortable cotton materials for sportswear...... This person is a seriously ill patient, and he is afraid that he has been ill for a while at the time of the crime, so how can he come alone to a city four or five hours away from his home to discuss business? Even if he is really dedicated to his work, regardless of life and death, this car is not quite right, according to his personality and physical condition, it is not suitable to drive such a difficult car, moreover, he is only 1.7 meters tall, but the position of the driver's seat has been adjusted a little far, which is obviously not suitable for him. ”
Ye Shichao nodded approvingly, "You're right, I went to the prison to find this Li Qiang, he is indeed seriously ill, because of physical reasons, he has been in the hospital after the sentence, and he was not imprisoned, and he died less than a month later." As for the car, his family said that Li Qiang originally had a white Audi, gave the car to his wife before the crime, and bought the second-hand car himself and drove it to S City. ”
"It's very strange, it's like the suicide of a dying person, but there is no evidence, and the real situation, I'm afraid only Li Qiang himself knows. Xin Pet said, subconsciously reached out and touched his pocket, wanting to pinch the decompression toy, but he touched the emptiness, only to remember, he went out in a hurry today, forgot to bring it, and wanted to pick his fingers in his hand, Ye Shichao lowered his head and opened the drawer of the desk, and handed a round little seal over.
Xin Pet was stunned for a moment, took the little seal and pinched it twice, and only then remembered that this seal was not given to him by her in the laboratory?
"Don't pick your fingers, it's hard to quit. Ye Shichao looked at her, pointed to the old scars on her fingers, and her dark eyes were mixed with emotions, if she was not mistaken, was she distressed?
Xin Pet has always been a strong existence in the eyes of others, from childhood to adulthood, it has always been, even if there is a Singh who takes the masculine route by her side, it can't hide her brilliance at all. Who knows, such a person who seems to have no flaws actually has a fatal flaw, and she is very insecure.
Xin Pet's parents have such a pair of dragon and phoenix fetuses when they are old, they are naturally very favored, but people's life span is not unlimited, the year their parents died, Xin Pet Singh was only seventeen years old, and his eighteenth birthday has not been over.
Although their parents worked hard before their deaths, they left real estate and funds, which were enough to support them in their studies, but orphans are orphans, and the sudden loss of parents is like a sudden collapse. In order to overcome these and not show it, he desperately picked his fingers, and when all ten fingers were bloody, he realized that he couldn't go on like this, so he changed to a pinch and decompression toy on the advice of a psychiatrist.
These trivial things in the eyes of outsiders, small habits that can be ignored, are indeed great scars in Xin Pet's heart, and they have never been mentioned to anyone, and no one can associate them with psychological problems, after all, she is Xin Pet.
Ye Shichao was the first to see it and point it out, and it was in this tone and eyes that made her irresistible.
Xin Pet couldn't calm down at that time, there was a voice in her heart that was boiling and hustle, she instantly blushed, gritted her teeth, and asked, "Ye Shichao, how about we make a deal?" I'll help you find your father, and you will be my boyfriend." ”
When she said this, she began to panic, and inexplicably felt that since the words were said, she couldn't go back, whether he agreed or not, at least she couldn't lose in her aura, even if she was rejected, she had to look good in her posture.
Ye Shichao was really stunned, and didn't speak for half a minute.
Then, there was no then, because at that time, Xin Pet really couldn't stand the torment, and before he could speak, he ran away.
No matter how much psychological construction is done, in the end, the posture is still not good-looking, in the final analysis, love is such a thing, who finds it first, who is uncomfortable first, she understands this earlier than him, and she is destined to fall behind from the beginning.
This feeling of falling behind made Xin Pet very uncomfortable, so today, at this time, the two of them were so embarrassed in the car, although no one mentioned the ridiculous deal.
