Xiao Geyan did deliberately empty his mind, and when he regained his mind, he found Bai Xue sitting opposite him, subconsciously pinching the teaspoon with one hand and slowly stirring the coffee in the cup in front of him, and the other hand supporting his cheeks, staring out of the window with his eyes, not knowing what he was thinking.

Xiao Geyan didn't make a sound, didn't alarm her, just watched silently, he had always felt very confident in his strong logical ability, and thought that he had a keen intuition that could see through the hearts of others, as long as he caught some signs, even if it seemed trivial at first glance, he could quickly find the root of it, and draw a bloody conclusion.

But for Bai Xue, he felt that he couldn't see through her, or it couldn't be said that he couldn't see through her, after all, this girl was like a handful of clear stream, without impurities, without concealment.

But Xiao Geyan found that even if he saw through her, he couldn't understand her.

When they met for the first time, he thought that this girl should be the kind of weak flower with no guilt cultivated in a pampered environment, and he was startled and had no thought or concentration.

When they met again, he still felt that this girl might have a little insistence, but she was still very well protected and did not go through the world, so she was simple and not scheming, and she was not even very good at hiding her intentions and thoughts, so that people could see through it at a glance.

It may be that it is a smooth sailing growth environment, and a comfortable greenhouse with someone to help cover all the ups and downs, that will develop such a kind of simplicity, such a carefree relaxation and ease.

However, as he got to know her better, he became a little confused.

He didn't expect that the girl's father was a criminal policeman who died in the line of duty.

He didn't expect that her idea of inheriting her father's mantle was not mixed with any impurities, and she was not burdened with heavy hatred and resentment, and her father's death may have made her feel a little sad when she remembered it, but it was not a burden for her to move forward, and she did not cover her character with any bit of dust.

How did she do it? Xiao Geyan felt a little curious, and couldn't help but want to explore.

Bai Xue didn't actually think about anything, she just simply emptied herself. In the past, when she was young, she would encounter the kind of thing from time to time that the more she wanted to remember something, the more she couldn't think clearly, and the memory she wanted to grasp was like a flickering shadow, right in front of her, but she just couldn't grasp it, and it wasn't real.

Whenever she encounters this situation, her father will always forcibly stop her, and randomly ask her to help her figure this and that, and divert Bai Xue's attention by doing something else, often when Bai Xue has left the questions that were particularly troubled before, the answers that she had been unable to grasp inadvertently appeared in her mind.

"Sometimes finding the answer is like holding a handful of sand with your hand, the tighter you hold it, the more you can't grasp anything, it's better to relax and hold it so gently with your hand, but there is more sand in your hand. ”

This is a small truth that her father told her, and Bai Xue has always remembered it very clearly for so many years.

So when she encounters the tip of the horns, or when her thoughts are very confused, she will let herself empty for a short time, and wait until her brain is rested, and then comb it again.

This time, when she came back to her senses, she subconsciously looked at Xiao Geyan, but when she looked at him, she looked at him with four eyes, and Bai Xue realized that when she was emptying her brain, Xiao Geyan had been staring at herself silently, as if she was studying and figuring out something.

However, what could he have that was worth figuring out? If not, the reason why Xiao Geyan could have stared at him with the same eyes as Fang Cai, I am afraid there was only another possibility.

"Did I get anything dirty on my face?" she asked, subconsciously reaching out to wipe her face.

"Hmm. Xiao Geyan nodded, and pointed lightly at the side of Bai Xue's face, "There." ”

Bai Xue didn't doubt him, took out a tissue from the side, and seriously wiped it on that side of her cheek a few times, and after wiping it, she looked at the still snow-white and clean tissue, her expression was a little confused.

"Didn't wipe anything off......" she turned her face to Xiao Geyan, "Did you wipe it off?"

Xiao Geyan suddenly wanted to laugh, fortunately, he had always controlled his expression very well, so even if he controlled the corners of his mouth, but he didn't control his hand, he stretched out his hand to Bai Xue, and gently rubbed it twice with his fingertips on her cheeks that didn't have any dust stains at all, and then retracted his hand and nodded to her: "It's okay now." ”

Bai Xue felt that her cheeks were a little hot, as if she had a fever.

It must be because he is such a big person, and he still visits everywhere with a dirty face, but it has been so long before he was discovered by Xiao Geyan, so he feels very embarrassed, it must be like this.

"Now that Su Manwen and Xie Jun have completely lost their whereabouts after leaving the hotel, if they can't find any relevant traces, it will be difficult to determine how the murderer established contact with them and started it!" Bai Xue decided to shift the attention of both of them to the case as soon as possible in order to hide her embarrassment.

"I don't think the same way you do. Xiao Geyan shook his head gently, "No matter how the connection is established, the final outcome is already predetermined, so I think that compared to the opportunity to establish contact, why the murderer attacked such a couple is the most interesting." ”

"Well, you're right, in fact, I also think it's quite strange, according to the law of regional characteristics of crimes, Su Manwen or Xie Jun originally had a grudge against fellow villagers, and the possibility of following them to our D city and then waiting for an opportunity to attack is too small, after all, a completely unfamiliar city, it is too risky to want to perform such a complex murder method. Bai Xue agreed, "But here in D City, who would hate such a young couple who eloped so much?"

"It may not be for their little couple," Xiao Geyan shook his head, "The key word may lie in the word 'elopement' you just mentioned, you should remember the analysis I did in your bureau on the day of the crime, right?"
