138. Race against time
Walking through the mall with a cart and grabbing a bag of MSG from the shelves, many years ago she never imagined that one day she would be like thousands of ordinary housewives, like thousands of ordinary housewives, to buy food and cook a table of meals for her loved ones in the evening. Because this kind of plain and happy life always makes her feel very distant, relatives are shared by everyone, but for her, after the people she cares about die one after another, her father, who is closest to her, is no different from a passerby who has never known her.
If a person is born surrounded by strong love, then in fact, she can not fly so high and tired, but if a person is lonely and has few people to care for her for a long time, she can only keep climbing to numb her spirit.
After the email was sent, the principal of the Owen branch called in person, Ethel is a person who cherishes talents, never judges heroes by age and seniority, she values the potential of Lucy Bloom, and is confident that Ethel's existence can add a strong touch to Irving's development.
"Caroline, you've changed."
At the end, Ethel said to her. The first time I met Luci, Ethel was amazed by her sharp eyebrows, she was a rare genius, she was indifferent, she was smart, she could go to great lengths to pursue the truth, this is really Ethel's philosophy of learning and education, and this philosophy is vividly embodied in a girl in her twenties. Ethel's impression of Lucy is thirsty for knowledge, as if nothing in this world can disturb her mind except truth and knowledge, and she is a person who truly lives for knowledge.
But now it's different, after meeting Qiao Yixia, knowledge is no longer the highest pursuit of her life. Compared with Qiao Yixia, no one in any personnel is no longer qualified to be in the first place.
"However, this change in yours makes me truly happy for you. The next time we meet, I think I'll see a smiling Caroline. β
Thinking of Ethel's words, Lucy threw the spice packet in his hand into the cart and shook his head, the corners of his mouth hooked up with an undetectable smile.
Love and family affection were things that Lu Xifei did not dare to hope for, if the combination with Qiao Yixia was fate, then Meng Liuchen's appearance must be an unexpected surprise. Fortunately, he was not repelled by his pretense of being high, and fortunately, he chose to come to her without hesitation, so that she could enjoy the warmth of family affection again.
She carried a shopping bag in her hand, and her steps were brisk and free.
"Long time no see, Xi Fei."
Her voice was like a meteor piercing the silent sky, the smile on her lips matched the bright red lipstick, her long hair was coiled high, and she stood in front of Luci Fei, and her body exuded a faint smell of perfume.
Helan Qiubai took the shopping bag in her hand, walked to the counter and took out a card from her wallet, and helped her settle the bill without saying a word. Helan Qiubai turned around and reached out to wrap his hand around her shoulder, holding the bag in the other hand: "What?" Can't remember who I am? Or did you think I was surprised by my presence? β
Seeing that Lucy didn't speak, she sneered, beautiful but weird: "Foreign countries are good in every way, but they are not as good as their hometown." What's more, I really miss you. You don't have to be scared or worry about anything, I just happened to come out to buy something, and I happened to meet you, that's all. But it looks like you're doing well now, so I'm relieved. β
With that, Helan Qiubai patted her on the shoulder, hung the shopping bag on her index finger, and turned around to leave.
"Sister-in-law." Helan Qiubai turned around and looked at the beautiful Luxi Fei with interest, "If I can, I am willing to use my life to exchange the two of you for old age." But nothing in this world can be done all over again. β
Helan Qiubai smiled faintly, without saying a word, she stepped on ten centimeters of high heels, and collided with the floor with a clattering sound. She is like a tall tree in this winter, although she stands upright with perseverance, she can't escape the fate of falling leaves, and only the bare trunk remains. Luci clutched her shopping bag tightly, her heart rolling like a wave. This feeling of being haunted by guilt and worry intensified. If only she didn't know Helan Qiubai so well. It would be nice if this regret and worry could not exist at the same time.
After leaving Meng Liuchen's house, Lu Xifei and Qiao Yixia went home together, in the car, Lu Xifei told Qiao Yixia of the latest progress of Jia Wu's case, these days, she wants to investigate Qiao Yihui's case, and on the other hand, she also has to imagine the possibility of Jia Wu being kidnapped, although she doesn't want to admit it, but according to her physical condition, it is indeed a little unbearable, at this time, she needs Qiao Yixia to be by her side, give her strength, and pull her at the right time.
"Cangcang, I understand what you mean, you suspect that the person who kidnapped Jia Wu has a vendetta with her, so he has been looking for the right time to do it?"
"Well, that's just a relatively big possibility, and I can't be entirely sure."
Qiao Yixia turned the steering wheel and said: "Your guess is indeed very reasonable, excluding the 'pure accident' situation, this person must have some kind of connection with Jia Wu, and he knows Jia Wu's family background very well, bodyguards accompanying him is not a particularly easy thing to detect, they usually act low-key, and it is not easy for ordinary people to find out about their existence." On the one hand, the kidnapper did not attack when the bodyguards accompanied him, which shows that he knew Jia Fu's protection of Jia Wu Cheng DΓΉ. On the other hand, he knew Jia Wu's whereabouts very well, or rather, he knew very well about the affairs between Jia Wu and Su Chen. β
"Not bad." This is the reason why Lu Xifei asked the members of the serious crime team to investigate along the network between Su Chen and Jia Wu.
Qiao Yixia took advantage of the red light to look at her and found that her love was not very good. Although this kind of investigation is fine, it takes too long, and in the process, it cannot be ruled out that the kidnappers may tear up the ticket. Generally speaking, kidnappers who are motivated to obtain money are easier to control, but once a hostage falls into the hands of such a purely retaliatory kidnapper, the chances of survival are slim.
Qiao Yixia's right hand moved away from the steering wheel and held her hand tightly.
"Cangcang, there is one thing I don't understand, it's okay to follow the line of Su Chen and Jia Wu to check down, but why do you want to look at the relevant files of the kidnapping case this year, do you suspect that the kidnappers committed serial crimes?"
"This possibility cannot be ruled out. It has been sixty-eight hours since Jia Fu called the police, which means that Jia Wu has been missing for more than sixty-eight hours, and for a full sixty-eight hours, the kidnappers have not released a single rumor. In a sense, Jia Wu should still be alive by now. The kidnappers kidnapped her, but they didn't kill her, so what are the kidnappers doing at this moment? We have no way of knowing, but we can be sure that Jia Wu must be suffering. However, what kind of hatred and hatred caused the kidnappers to hate Jia Wu so much? After our investigation, we found that although Jia Wu is pungent by nature, arrogant and domineering, his essence is not bad, and he has no black history. So think about it from another angle, Yi Xia, if it were you, your first reaction would be how to characterize this kidnapping case, and why would you think this case started, don't think too much, just say your first reaction. β
Qiao Yixia lightly opened her lips and said, "Love." β
No more, no less, just a love word, but it shows the key.
It never takes too much effort to communicate with Qiao Yixia, she is smart, and she has a heart-to-heart connection with Lu Xifei, and she can always understand Lu Xifei's thoughts as quickly as possible.
"Love can be divided into three categories, family affection, love, friendship, family affection can basically be excluded, Jia Fu has a sister, the sister died of illness a few years ago, Jia Fu is very righteous, very good to relatives, often help them. Jia Wu's friends are mostly young masters and young ladies with comparable family conditions, and people like them are arrogant and unscrupulous, and they often can't make any big unpleasantness, and more importantly, their family industries are related, which can be regarded as an interdependent relationship. Luci said.
"In that case, only love remains."
"Su Chen is dead. Before him, Jia Wu had five boyfriends, but those were all talked about before she returned to China. Luci crossed his fingers together, his eyes secretive, "Love can be divided into three categories, but each category can be divided into countless categories, and so is love." Love is the easiest thing to overwhelm a person's mind, make people lose their minds and become crazy. From a scientific point of view, the subconscious mind is not enough to be used as evidence to prove an argument, but from a psychological point of view, human psychology includes two parts: conscious and unconscious, the unconscious is often mentioned in our lives, the unconscious is often mentioned in our lives, it is the core part of psychoanalysis, is based on our life experience and life experience of the basic reaction, has a high reference value. It is priceless evidence that is not presented in an objective form such as paper. β
Luci paused for a moment, then continued: "Now, I can't circle the possibilities in a fixed circle, and I can only guess to shorten the time to find Jia Wu as much as possible. β
As soon as the words fell, she received a call from Officer Chu, presumably she had already sorted out the information she wanted. Qiao Yixia could hear that her voice was still indifferent, but it was not pretending to be cold and arrogant, but her body was exhausted, which was really distressing.
"Xia, I might have to go to the police station."
"Aren't you tired?"
"Tired, tired." Hearing Lu Xifei say this, Qiao Yixia was heartbroken and surprised, and Lu Xifei said the word tired without the slightest concealment, Lu Xifei is very much like a superwoman, it seems that she can be invincible and invincible without resting, and hold high the banner of victory, wanting to hear her admit defeat, it is almost a ridiculous thing that is smaller than the probability of Mars hitting the earth, and now she said it without reservation, which made Qiao Yixia even more distressed.
"But at any time, tiredness is not a reason to stop. I can't let my exhaustion destroy the possibility of the hostages being freed sooner. β
