Chapter 146: Platonic Love

What happened in the past can be carried by memory, and that memory belongs only to oneself, and no one can get into the memory of others.

Although no one can know exactly what happened in the past, as long as it happened, there will be traces to follow.

As a private detective, Le Chen believes that even if Ling Yanbing gives him few clues, as long as he investigates with his heart, he will always find clues.

That was something that Ling Yanbing personally asked him to do, so he would definitely put his heart and soul into it.

He would definitely try his best to find Xiao Ruoshui, and then bring him to Ling Yanbing.

Although Ling Yanbing just said that Xiao Ruoshui was her friend, the thoughtful Le Chen still felt that it would not be so simple, and intuitively told him that the relationship between them must be extraordinary.

After he returned to the Lechen Detective Agency, he simply packed his bags, posted a notice of closure at the door of the detective agency, and then set off.

Although this is an unpaid job looking for someone, it is the most important thing for him at the moment, because the person who asked him is Ling Yanbing, so he will not hesitate to agree.

What is Ling Yanbing his? Friend? Or lovers? What is he in Ling Yanbing's heart?

These questions are not the most important thing for him, Le Chen has always been optimistic, like the morning sun, always full of beautiful visions for the future.

He firmly believes in platonic love, there is a kind of love that does not have to be together, love does not have to be possessive, and if you can watch each other get happiness from afar, then you will feel happy.

In Ling Yanbing's world, he is willing to be an unknown guardian, guarding her to get the happiness she wants, without asking for anything in return, regardless of gains and losses.

drove away from the Lechen Detective Agency, since you want to find it, you must start from the root.

Since Ling Yanbing and Xiao Ruoshui met in Tianxi Orphanage, and Xiao Ruoshui was also adopted in Tianxi Orphanage, it is very necessary to go there to find lost memories and seek the truth.

Tianxi Orphanage is one of the largest orphanages in T City, where the environment is very good, the transportation is convenient, and hundreds of orphans have been taken in, so that many homeless orphans have a place to stay and experience the long-lost warmth.

The street leading to the orphanage was full of trees.

When the flowers bloom, you will smell the fragrance of the flowers when you pass there, but unfortunately the season of falling flowers has already passed, so there are only towering trees there, but you can no longer see any flowers.

After a long time, he finally came to Tianxi Orphanage, Le Chen parked the car in the woods, and got out of the car alone, he wanted to try what it was like to walk in the woods.

Although he was the only one, it was not romantic, but he still wanted to taste it, just imagine that Ling Yanbing had also walked from here like him.

Le Chen walked forward, there were still Hehuan trees on both sides, these trees should have been more than ten years old, and each tree grew extremely luxuriantly, standing tall, as if it was going straight to the sky.

Le Chen didn't know Ling Yanbing for a long time, and the number of times he saw her was only a handful, although he didn't know much about her, but he could guess that she was kind-hearted and must be a very nostalgic person, otherwise she wouldn't let him help find a little boy who had been separated for fifteen years.

The memories here should also be extremely precious to her, close her eyes, hoping that she can feel the breath from memories, but unfortunately there is nothing, and the imagination he put together with great effort cannot restore Ling Yanbing when he was a child, after all, he has never seen it.

Le Chen didn't linger long, so he walked in directly, and as soon as he came in, he was stopped by the security guard on duty.

"Who? What to do here? The security guard asked vigilantly, such a routine check is a must.

After all, the tragedy of fifteen years ago was because there was no one to take care of it, so a madman broke in and killed so many innocent lives.

He is not a bad person, so of course he can face this calmly, Le Chen took out the detective card and handed it to the security guard, "I am a private detective, I am here to see your dean." ”

"Detective?" The security guard took the detective card and glanced at it a few times, then picked up the phone and dialed the dean's number directly, "Dean, there is a person outside who claims to be a detective who wants to see you." ”

"Let him come in, and see me in the drawing-room." The dean on the other end of the phone readily agreed.

"Dean, he told you to meet him in the front parlor." The security guard returned the detective card to Le Chen and looked at him incredulously, "It turns out that you are a detective, it's amazing, what I have admired the most since I was a child is a detective!" ”

Le Chen put away the detective card and smiled indifferently: "In fact, a detective is nothing great, everyone can become a detective, the investigation is not based on eyes alone, you have to be attentive, as long as you work hard, any truth can be found." ”

Then Le Chen walked briskly to the living room of Tianxi Orphanage and made an appointment to meet Wang Qi, the person in charge there.

Soon Wang Qi walked out and came to the living room.

Judging from Wang Qi's appearance, he should be around fifty years old. Guozi face, slightly bald, the years have left a lot of wrinkles on his face, his hair is a lot whiter, he wears a pair of glasses, and wears a casual outfit, giving people an easy-going feeling.

"Hello, I'm Le Chen, a private detective." Le Chen stretched out his hand to Wang Qi and took the initiative to introduce.

"Hello, I'm Wang Qi, the director of Tianxi Orphanage." Wang Qi shook Le Chen amicably, "Please sit down." ”

Le Chen was not restrained, and sat down directly, since he came here, it is necessary to know about the history of Tianxi Orphanage.

After all, he is a detective, which may be an occupational disease, and when he comes here, he will always inadvertently observe a situation here, as if he is solving a crime.

"Detective Le, please tell me if you have anything." Wang Qi stretched out his hand and smiled generously.

Le Chen went straight to the point and said: "Dean Wang, since you are the dean here, I think you must have an archived record of who adopted the orphans of Tianxi Orphanage fifteen years ago, right?" Can you lend it to me? I want to help people find a long-lost friend who used to be from Tianxi Orphanage, but was later adopted. ”

"Fifteen years ago?" Wang Qi frowned slightly, as if he was a little embarrassed.

"Dean Wang, don't worry, I just want to help someone find a friend, and I will never reveal any orphans in your orphanage, if you don't worry about me, I can provide the name, and you can help me find it." Le Chen looked at Wang Qi with a reverent expression, he just wanted to help Ling Yanbing find Xiao Ruoshui and fulfill her wish.

"Detective Le, you misunderstood, it's not that I don't want to show you, but I can't show you fifteen years of archived records at all." Wang Qichang sighed.

"Why? Don't you even record the identity and address of the orphanage when the children are adopted? Le Chen frowned coldly, this is not reasonable at all, unless this is an excuse that Wang Qi deliberately made because he didn't want to show him.

Wang Qi shook his head and said meaningfully: "Detective Le, you don't know, in fact, I just took over this Tianxi orphanage fifteen years ago, at that time I was just a volunteer, keen on charity, I like children, I like to see their lovely faces, innocent smiles." ”

"Dean Wang, even if you just take over, the previous archives should still be kept, right? How could it not be? Le Chen refused to give up, and still asked.

"Even if you want to, you can't keep it." Wang Qi sighed helplessly.

"Why? What's going on? Le Chen asked anxiously.

"Fire, a relentless fire has burned down all the lives here, is it possible that those archives will remain? What's the point of staying? Wang Qi's eyes looked out the window, and his deep eyes couldn't help but think of the past fifteen years ago.

"What!" Le Chen suddenly stood up and looked at Wang Qi in surprise, "You mean there was a fire in Tianxi Orphanage fifteen years ago?" ”

Wang Qi nodded, "Yes, I was on a business trip in Thailand at the time, and I only found out after I came back, I originally brought a lot of famous specialties from Thailand to send to the children, but when I came here again, I found that this place was burned to ashes, and there was nothing left." ”

"Why was there a sudden fire? Was it an accident? Le Chen frowned coldly, eager to know what the reason was.

Wang Qi shook his head, "No, it wasn't an accident at all, it was man-made, I wasn't at the scene at the time, and I only came back from a business trip half a month after the fire, and when I came here again as a volunteer, I found that it had already burned to ashes." I heard that on the night of the fire, a madman broke into Tianxi Orphanage, and he didn't want to live, so he poured fire oil around Tianxi Orphanage, and then burned down a Qiē here, which was close to midnight, when the children were asleep, so no one was spared, including all the nuns in Tianxi Orphanage at that time. ”

"How so? Why is this happening. Le Chen sat on the sofa weakly, should he be happy or sad?

If Ling Yanbing hadn't been adopted by Ling Wanli at that time, would she have died innocently in the fire like those poor children.

"I don't know why this happened, if I knew, I wouldn't have traveled to Thailand, I would have protected them here, I wouldn't have let that madman have a chance to break in, I wouldn't have let those poor children die in that fire, I would have rescued them one by one!" Wang Qi's fists were clenched tightly, but unfortunately time could not be turned back, and the one thing that happened could not be changed.

Le Chen hurriedly comforted: "Dean Wang, don't blame yourself, you don't want to, maybe that qiē is fate." ”

"Now that Tianxi Orphanage has strengthened its protection, there will be people who take turns to take care of these children 24 hours a day, give them the best life, and let them feel the warmth of this world." Wang Qi breathed a sigh of relief, maybe this was the only thing he could do now.

Le Chen asked anxiously, "Dean Wang, according to what you say, this Tianxi Orphanage was rebuilt later?" ”

Wang Qi nodded resolutely, "Yes, this place was completely rebuilt later, although it has expanded a lot compared to before, but this place is still full of Hehuan trees as before." ”

"Hehuan tree? Why are there Hehuan trees planted here? Does it mean anything special? Le Chen asked with some confusion.

Wang Qi shook his head, "I don't know, it seems that the people here like this kind of tree very much, you also saw it when you came, even the two sides of the road leading to Tianxi Orphanage are Hehuan trees, fifteen years of fire not only burned down the house, took the life of the child, even the grass and trees are not spared, only a few Hehuan trees survived, many Hehuan trees were directly roasted to death by the fire." ”

"Then you rebuilt this Tianxi orphanage?" Le Chen couldn't help but ask.

Wang Qi waved his hand and smiled indifferently: "Detective Le, you are exalting me too much, I am just the person in charge here, although I am nominally the dean, but the person who really rebuilds this place is the Heavenly Family." ”

Le Chen's heart couldn't help but sink, "Are you talking about the Heavenly Family in T City?" ”

Wang Qi nodded, "Yes, the Tianjia has always been keen on charity in society, and after the fire broke out here that year, they began to rebuild it in a short period of time, and soon rebuilt the Tianxi Orphanage. ”

Those who should know are already known, and those who don't know can only be checked by themselves.

Le Chen stood up, "Dean Wang, thank you for suing me for this, I still have something to say goodbye first." ”

"I'm sorry, Detective Le, I wasn't able to help you." Wang Qi felt a little sorry.

Le Chen smiled lightly, "It's okay, with these things you sued me, I will find out." ”

walked out of the Tianxi Orphanage, and while walking back, he thought back to the conversation with Wang Qi just now.

I felt a lot of feelings for a while, it turned out that there was a terrible fire in Tianxi Orphanage fifteen years ago, I was really glad that Ling Yanbing was no longer here at that time, otherwise she would definitely be buried in the fire, and he would not have had the opportunity to know her again.

Returning to the car, Le Chen frowned slightly, "The person who rebuilt the Tianxi Orphanage is the Heavenly Family?" Why is it heavenly? ”

The young master of the Heavenly Family is hidden in the sky, and he also knows him, but he is not very familiar with it, but he is just a general acquaintance.

This reminded him that he had once been to the Tianfeng Banquet Hall, which was also full of Hehuan trees, and he heard that those trees were planted by Tianshaoyin, and he couldn't look down on any noble variety of trees, but he only liked Hehuan trees.

Later, in a casual conversation with Tian Shaoyin, he also remembered hearing him say that it was to miss a person when he was a child.

Why is that? Is there any particular reason?

This qiē seems unusual, it seems that if you want to find Xiao Ruoshui's whereabouts, you have to start from the Heavenly Family, maybe the people of the Heavenly Family can know something.

It is not known whether the fire 15 years ago was really true or not, and what the truth of the matter was.

The best way is to let people check it in person, but fortunately, Lechen has more people and is popular.

He knew a friend who was a criminal policeman, so he hurriedly looked up his number in the phone book, and dialed it without hesitation, "Fan Ming, please help me check one thing." ”

"What's the matter? Lechen, just say, I will help. Fan Ming readily agreed.

Le Chen never liked to beat around the bush, he said directly: "Fan Ming, you help me check whether there was a fire in Tianxi Orphanage fifteen years ago, and what is the truth about that fire." ”

Fan Ming on the other side of the phone hurriedly responded, "Okay, I'll check it out immediately, and after I find it, I will send the detailed information to your email, and you will understand after reading it." ”

"Thank you." Hanging up the phone, Le Chen only hoped to know the specific progress of the fire case fifteen years ago, maybe this is the clue to find Xiao Ruoshui's whereabouts.

"Yan Bing, I will do my best to help you find Xiao Ruoshui's whereabouts and complete what you have asked me to do." Le Chen believes that things are done by man, and he will definitely be able to do it. R1154
