CHAPTER XV

Share a bed

Trance to trance, after all, the work still has to be done well. Several policemen inspected the scene and carefully put away the knife on the ground in the evidence bag, and then looked at several people on the ground who were in trouble - these people all vomited blood, and they all fainted at this time, and they looked at the injuries that were not light, and they didn't know if they could move, whether they would be injured and injured?

Several people were hesitating whether to call an ambulance, but after a flash, they saw that the little girl in the black dress had actually arrived at some point, squatted down with her skirt gently, and then reached out and touched the wrists of the people on the ground one by one. She tilted her head slightly, as if thinking thoughtfully for a while, and quickly stood up:

"Don't worry, the pulse is peaceful, it's just a few minor injuries to the flesh, it's not a big deal."

The police looked at her suspiciously: "You...... Know Chinese medicine? ”

Ling Xiao responded, seeing that the other party was still looking at him with some suspicion, he was not angry, but just looked at him deeply, and suddenly stretched out her hand - her movements were obviously unhappy, and even looked a little lazy. He instinctively wanted to avoid it at the first time, and he did retract his hand to avoid it, but ...... He looked at the white hand clasped on his wrist, and was a little dazed for a while.

――Why...... Didn't dodge?

Ling Xiao quickly let go of him, dusted off the corners of his skirt casually, and his voice seemed a little careless: "Are you busy with work a while ago and have no time to rest, but recently you are idle but often have insomnia and light sleep, and there is a slight boredom in your chest?" ”

The policeman was immediately shocked: "How do you know?" ”

Everyone looked at Ling Xiao in unison.

Ling Xiao raised his eyes and looked at the policeman, did not answer his question, but continued his previous words with his own thoughts: "This is a lack of fatigue and sleeplessness, tomorrow I will go to the pharmacy and ask them to prepare you with a pair of sour jujube kernel soup, you can be cured after three servings, and you will have a good rest in the future." ”

Suddenly, there was silence all around.

"What, still don't believe me?" Seeing that the other party didn't react for a long time, Ling Xiao was finally a little surprised at this time, and looked around, and didn't have any idea of arguing for himself, he just spread his hands and said casually, "Then let them continue to lie here." ”

As soon as these words came out, the group seemed to have finally reacted, and hurriedly denied it, and hurriedly moved all the people on the ground into the police car.

Ling Xiao and Shen Qing followed to make a record.

As soon as I entered the police station, I saw someone coming down from the upper floor, and the figure looked slightly familiar, and several policemen who came in together had already hurriedly greeted them in a proper manner: "Team Zhang, Section Chief Chen." ”

"Who is this?" The policeman who walked at the end seemed to be a newcomer, and at this time he whispered with some curiosity, "It's not ours, is it?" ”

"Provincial leaders came to guide the work." The person next to him also explained to him in a whisper.

While they were talking, the two men had already descended the stairs and came over with the same greetings. The person walking in front suddenly changed his expression slightly, and his gaze suddenly fell straight on Ling Xiao's body.

Ling Xiao glanced at him generously, his gaze shifted slightly, falling on the man who was half a step behind him and was nodding at him with a faint smile, also smiling and bowing slightly.

-- These two people are the same Zhang Cheng and Chen Ji that I saw in the last murder.

"What's going on?" Zhang Cheng glanced at the men who were carried in and frowned slightly.

"The two little girls called the police, saying that these people were blackmailing and robbing and intending to sexually assault." The policeman who went to the police briefly explained the previous situation, and saw that Zhang Cheng looked at the four people who were still in a coma and frowned, and was about to explain again, but he didn't hear him ask, but saw him once again set his eyes on the little girl in black, and asked in a deep voice:

"You hit it?"

Even though it was a question, his tone sounded like he was stating the facts.

Ling Xiao spread his hands: "Just in defense." ”

-- This word was told to her by Shen Qing when she was in the car earlier. If you hurt someone by resisting, as long as you don't do it too hard, that's what the law allows.

Zhang Cheng's voice immediately sank slightly: "Excessive defense is also a crime." ”

How does this man look like...... Is there any prejudice or hostility towards yourself? Ling Xiao was puzzled, but he didn't bother to entangle with him, he just turned his head to look at Chen Ji on the side, slightly curious: "Forensic doctor - don't care about the living?" ”

"Tube," Chen Ji seemed to be a little helpless, patted Zhang Cheng's shoulder casually, and walked over with a little helpless shaking his head, "Forensic doctors are all working hard, taking care of everything, and the injury evaluation is also ours." ”

Ling Xiao had a pretty good impression of this person, seeing that although he looked helpless, he didn't have the slightest intention of complaining and disliking the job, he couldn't help but laugh lightly, and watched him check the injuries of those people for a long time.

Chen Ji was obviously very "skilled", and quickly withdrew his hand and turned his head to look at Zhang Cheng with a calm face: "You can't even get a slight injury, at most it's a slight injury." ”

As he spoke, he also turned his head to look at Ling Xiao intentionally or unintentionally - there are national standards for injury evaluation, and if it doesn't look serious, it must be a serious injury, and it doesn't necessarily mean that it is a minor injury.

Ling Xiao was tilting his head to talk to Shen Qing.

Zhang Cheng glanced at Chen Ji, then at Ling Xiao, and responded, but he still didn't say anything more, and continued to do what he hadn't done before. Chen Ji and a few others greeted again, shook their heads and turned around to follow.

……

The facts of the case were very simple, Ling Xiao and Shen Qing quickly finished the transcript, signed and were allowed to leave.

"Let's go, I'll send you back." Ling Xiao stood at the door of the police station, and saw Shen Qing hanging her head and looking a little embarrassed, so she couldn't help but touch the top of her head again.

The little girl finally raised her head: "It's late, if you don't go back, Brother Ye Lin will definitely have to worry, I'll go back myself, too, I can do it." ”

Although she said this, the uneasiness and panic in her voice still betrayed her panic.

"It's okay, he's home, he won't know." Ling Xiao said, while already reaching out to stop a taxi, pulling Shen Qing into the car, turning his head and asking her softly, "Where is your home?" ”

Shen Qing sat beside her, looked at her holding her hand, and looked at her calm expression, suddenly inexplicably relieved, smiled at her, and reported the address of his home.

Ling Xiao got out of the car, followed Shen Qing upstairs, and delivered her to the door all the way.

The little girl opened the door—and the house was pitch black.

"You're alone?" Ling Xiao frowned slightly.

"Mom and Dad went out on a trip a few days ago," Shen Qing explained in a low voice, "My brother is on duty tonight, and he is not at home." ”

She had already let go of Ling Xiao's hand, and at this time she was talking and twisting the hem of her clothes with both hands, obviously extremely hesitant and uneasy.

Ling Xiao hesitated slightly for a moment, and asked her tentatively, "Are you still afraid?" Do you want me to ......?"

"Go back!" Shen Qing seemed to hear the meaning of her words, biting his lip, don't look at her, and push her out, "I'm home, what's so scary!" ”

Ling Xiao is equipped with martial arts, where can she be promoted by a weak little girl? He stood still and didn't move.

Shen Qing pushed for a while and finally found that it had no effect at all, bit his lip hard, tilted his head and raised his voice: "You still don't want to go back?" ”

Ling Xiao laughed: "Ye Lin will only come back tomorrow night, I am scared at night alone, can you take me in for one night?" ”

As soon as the words fell, the hand pushing her suddenly stopped.

Shen Qing raised her eyes and looked at her—she was still the same, saying that she was scared, but her expression was clearly arrogant.

"In that case," said the little girl, holding her chin up and looking "reluctantly," "then I'll take you in for the night." ”

Ling Xiao smiled and closed the door casually.

After the two washed up, they got into the bed together. Ling Xiao didn't bring a change of clothes, so she wore Shen Qing's for the time being-Shen Qing was only slightly shorter than her, and the little girl found a new set of underwear that she hadn't worn and another set of her own pajamas for her, and Ling Xiao wore them well.

Ling Xiao reached out and turned off the light.

The room was immediately plunged into darkness.

Shen Qing on the side was obviously frightened by this darkness, and subconsciously pasted it to Ling Xiao's side.

Ling Xiao reached out and patted her on the shoulder.

Although Shen Qing was still shocked, he was accompanied by someone, and he seemed to be slowly relieved a little bit. It's just that I'm not so scared, but I still can't sleep for a while. The little girl turned over, hesitated slightly, reached out and gently poked Ling Xiao's shoulder, and explained in a low voice:

"I—I'm not that unmeasured. Next month for my grandfather's birthday, I want to buy him a gift, but today I have piano lessons during the day, so I can only go there at night. I went with my brother once before, and I thought it didn't matter, I didn't know it would be like this at night......"

She seemed to be afraid of being taken as a willful and ignorant little girl, and explained in a hurry.

Ling Xiao responded, and didn't say anything else, just told again: "There are people who come from there, it's dangerous at night, don't go alone in the future." ”

Shen Qing responded, was quiet for a while, and couldn't help poking her shoulder again: "Ling Xiao, what school do you go to?" ”

"I didn't go to school." Ling Xiao replied generously and truthfully.

The little girl in the dark suddenly widened her eyes: "Why? ”

"Because I'm from the mountains," Ling Xiao yawned lazily, his tone was already slightly sleepy, "I won't ...... anything."

"Liar!" The little girl interrupted her before she could finish, her voice full of accusations.

Ling Xiao was slightly puzzled, "Huh? "Yes.

"Who are you fooling? If you come from the mountains, you can recite poetry, know Chinese medicine, and know kung fu—" The little girl counted with her fingers in a huff, and at the end she asked with some uncertainty, "Well, that should be kung fu, right?" ”

"Really," Ling Xiao was not angry, stretched his arms to the back of his head, and "explained" seriously, "Our mountain is different from what we are learning outside now, I don't understand the homework in school at all, and I'm tutoring." ”

Shen Qing was a little skeptical: "Really? So what do you learn in the mountains? ”

Ling Xiao sighed: "Qin, chess, calligraphy and painting, astronomical calendar, martial arts and medical skills, planting flowers and grass, and ...... heavenly organs"

Shen Qing was already a little stunned when he heard it: "Huh? So powerful! ”

Ling Xiao smiled and didn't say a word, just patted the top of her head and said in a low voice: "Rest early, don't be afraid, I'll accompany you." ”

Shen Qing responded, and after closing his eyes, he seemed to suddenly think of something, and quickly stood up and leaned over to poke her shoulder: "If you don't have any homework, I can teach you, I have good grades!" ”

Ling Xiao yawned and replied in a daze, and then she finally lay back and closed her eyes in peace of mind under the covers.

……

Early the next morning, the persistent vibration and ringing of the mobile phone suddenly broke the silence of the morning. Ling Xiao squinted his eyes and connected to the mobile phone, and a familiar voice immediately came from the other end:

"Ling Xiao, where have you been? How not at home? ”

I don't know if it was because of sleepiness and delusion, Ling Xiao actually felt that Ye Lin's voice sounded full of eagerness, and even a little vaguely flustered and nervous.
