"Don't Lie to Him" / Lord Grass Lantern

2016-06-02

Bai Xin was busy and was sitting in the office munching on a mint candy at this time.

The tip of her tongue rolled, stirring the tiny candy and clinking into a bite.

Xiao Lin in the next office probe, snorted, and said, "Bai Xin, can you still eat sugar?" ”

Bai Xin wondered: "What's wrong with eating sugar?" ”

"Oh, I'm just going to give it to you." Xiao Lin handed over a file to Bai Xin, pointed to a corpse on it, and said, "Senior Brother Wang's case, you look at this description, when the victim died, he still had a mint candy in his mouth, and you didn't have a heart or lungs, you can eat it." ”

"It's not once or twice that this kind of thing happens, but this murderous dare is really bold, and in this case, he dares to stuff sugar and play."

Bai Xin is a forensic doctor, and he is not surprised by this kind of thing, and he often jokes in the office. Once because she was on duty, she was still staring at the white covered corpse cloth while leisurely eating instant noodles.

"This file is for you, and you have to take over it after that to help Senior Brother Wang. There's something going on, I'll have to withdraw first. Xiao Lin fled, and when Bai Xin looked up, he knew that it was Senior Brother Wang who came.

There is a greasy relationship between Xiaolin and Senior Brother Wang, and an office chase romance is staged. But this has nothing to do with Bai Xin, she will not intervene in this hand and promote good things or anything.

Bai Xin casually flipped through a few pages of the file and wrote down the eyebrows of the deceased. After a moment, her gaze fell on the corner of the man's mouth, a little scarred, bruised and congealed, as if it had been scratched. The palate is slightly bulging, and there is something in the mouth.

Is it sugar before you die, or after you die?

It's kind of funny.

She closed the file, took off her pure white real clothes, and walked home with her bag.

It was now half past eight in the evening, and Bai Xin found a noodle restaurant outside to eat a bowl of mixed noodles.

After eating, Bai Xin went home. When he arrived at the apartment near his home, Bai Xin remembered that he didn't seem to have a key.

It's miserable now, it's impossible for her to harass the landlord in the middle of the night to get a spare key, not to mention that she is in Huangshan District, the landlord is doing business in Qishan District, and she rushed back one night to open a door for her?

Bai Xin came out of the corridor and went around the back door to see that his window was still open, maybe he could find a way to climb in?

After all, she lived on the first floor, and there was a protruding stone slab outside the window that could be pushed against her feet, and she should be able to climb into the window just by leaning on that slate.

What's more, there are several old pipes next to it, and as long as you climb up the pipes, you can firmly reach the windows of your neighbors' houses. The two windows are separated by half a meter, and then from the neighbor's to the other window sill, Bai Xin can successfully go home.

Moreover, there is no one living in the house next door, right?

It's been empty for a whole year, and it can't be so coincidental that you get caught by a new tenant.

Bai Xin put the bag on his shoulders, grabbed the iron hook used to fix the pipe with both hands, and climbed up.

She staggered all the way, but managed to reach the windowsill.

Bai Xin smiled triumphantly, then touched the wall, stepped into his window, and successfully rolled into the room.

Thankfully, no one spotted her.

Bai Xin didn't go to work the next day, and she slept beautifully after she washed up.

In the middle of the night, Bai Xin got up to go to the toilet, and suddenly heard the knocking sound of "kicking and kicking" next door, as if people were walking, if there was nothing, and soon returned to calm.

Someone next door?

Her consciousness had not yet converged, and she had a hazy impression.

No way, it's been a long time since I've lived next door. When she climbed over the wall today, didn't she see that there was no light in the window?

It is also possible that there are footsteps at midnight, and the scientific explanation is that the cement wall is hollow, and there are some noises in the guide, which is an auditory hallucination.

But don't think about it so much, she continued to sleep well.

The next morning, Bai Xin was woken up by the ringing of the doorbell.

She opened the door, but there was no one outside. In the middle of the empty aisle was a letter, the envelope neat and beautifully written.

Bai Xin wondered, opened it, read the contents, and saw that it was written:

"Hello, Miss Bai.

I'm your new neighbor, surnamed Su, and a shepherd.

I am taking the liberty of sending this letter to confirm one thing with you, whether you ever climbed onto the windowsill of my house and climbed into the window of my house at 8:45:03 last night, and the whole process lasted six seconds. ”

Bai Xin was dumbfounded, but he didn't know how this person knew. It's just that Bai Xin was very sure that no one saw her whereabouts at that time, so she just had to find an excuse to prevaricate......

"Good, it's been a minute.

In this minute, Miss Bai did not come to apologize to me, which means that she is thinking of some excuses for prevarication, and she is not sincerely repentant.

Do you want to ask, why?

First of all, Miss Bai had fine footprints and iron filings left on the windowsill, and I checked and could probably determine that the iron hook had reached the windowsill.

As for the footprints, I have taken the real size of the carpet in front of your house, and due to the long-term stepping on it, the carpet will have a near-inertial depression.

Finally, there is the purpose, passing by the windowsill of my house, but not entering the house to steal, then there is only one purpose, to take the opportunity to reach another place.

The above is consistent with Miss Bai's information.

So, be sure to give me a word and see you soon. ”

The letter came to an abrupt end, with a full stop, clean and concise.

Bai Xin's face was incredulous, what is the origin of this person?

She was a little weak-hearted, but she wouldn't tear her face with her new neighbor for such a trivial matter.

Bai Xin went out, went to the fruit store and picked out a basket of fruits, trotted upstairs, and rang the doorbell next door.

Soon, someone came to open the door.

The person who opened the door was a man, with slightly messy bangs, thin-rimmed glasses, and thoughtful and handsome eyebrows.

The warm color shower gel on his body has a strong fragrance, and it has a reassuring texture, which is extremely light and diffuse, and that bit of breath envelops Bai Xin's whole person and besieges him.

Bai Xin stammered: "That, I'm Bai Xin next door, hello, first time meeting." ”

The man lowered his head, glanced at her for a long time, nodded, and said, "Good morning, my name is Su Mu." ”

"Well, I'm here to apologize. I didn't bring the key yesterday, I'm really embarrassed to climb to your windowsill, I don't know anyone lives, if there is, I'll go directly to your house and ask. ”

"It's okay, I just moved in yesterday. If you don't dislike it, come in and sit down? Although there was no smile on Su Mu's face, his voice was slightly soft, as if he had just woken up.

"Okay." Bai Xin put the fruit on his coffee table and looked at the decoration and furnishings in the house. The dΓ©cor here is very ordinary, white pattern, very simple. And the floor in the middle of the living room is covered with a carpet, and the texture is very soft.

Su Mu warmed a glass of milk for her, and came over with a glass of boiled water: "I think you shouldn't have breakfast, you can drink a little milk, and you won't have a stomachache." ”

Bai Xin himself is a professional in this area, although it is not good to drink milk on an empty stomach, but it is always better to supplement protein than to eat nothing.

She took a sip and reacted, "How do you know I didn't eat breakfast?" ”

Su Mu paused, staggered his eyes, and whispered: "My sense of smell is relatively sensitive. ”

As soon as he said this, Bai Xin understood.

If you don't eat breakfast, you will have a taste in your mouth, that is, a certain odor emitted from the stomach, so those who don't eat breakfast will have bad breath.

Bai Xin was stunned for a moment, and quickly took a sip of milk to hide his embarrassment.

This person's observation skills are really not to be underestimated, and Bai Xin can't help but feel that he is his own peer, even more professional than ordinary colleagues.

She looked back on what had happened before, her face was blue and white, she didn't expect her hands and feet to be so secret, and she was still seen clearly.

By the way, Bai Xin suddenly remembered another thing.

"Also, how do you know when I pass by your windowsill?" she asked. There was no one in the house at the time, and I remember it clearly. ”

"Is it right to turn off the lights in the house?" Su Mu said.

"yes, it's all dark, no one is home."

Su Mu lowered his eyes, his slender eyelashes covered the pupils, and it took a long time before he replied in a subtle and weak voice: "This is a psychological suggestion." ”

"What do you mean?"

"In your subconscious, you think that there are no people living in this house, so you are unscrupulous. First driven by this subconscious thought, and then compared with the scene of turning off the lights in the house, the brain restores a cognition to you according to your thoughts, that is, there is no one in the house. ”

"That is, what I see with my eyes is not necessarily real?"

"Hmm. Also, there was actually someone in the house at the time, and I sat right in front of you and watched you climb the wall. And you didn't notice me. ”

"......" Bai Xin was speechless, but fortunately she still came over to apologize, she didn't think about being wrong, she was wrong, and she didn't pay the bill.

Therefore, Su Mu wrote to her to test how she would react in different situations, so as to infer her personality?

How many traps this person has set for her, and she has nowhere to hide step by step.

Bai Xin was convinced, and she asked, "Are you engaged in criminal work?" ”

Su Mu raised his eyes, his pupils were clear, and his words were accurate and clear: "No, I'm just an ordinary math teacher." ”

His aura is obviously very weak, like a gust of wind, and he will be ignored if he is not careful.

So before, Bai Xinneng ignored him so easily.

But from now on, Bai Xin seems to be about to break the previous impression again, and once again stare at the strange neighbor in front of him, this person always has an inexplicable temperament, like fog, extremely fragile, and powerful enough to be disorienting.
