Chapter 1: A Strange Missing Person Mandate
"What would you do if I left one day?" After watching the movie, I asked Li Jing with tears in my eyes.
Li Jing rolled his eyes: "How could your IQ leave me?" ”
"It's not romantic at all." I took another piece of chocolate and shoved it into my mouth and ignored him.
"The premise of romance has to be that we have a relationship, right?" Li Jing sighed softly.
Today is Valentine's Day, as two single Wangs, they were so crowded by the overwhelming pink bubbles outside that they could only stay at home to watch a movie, and when they were rummaging through the film, the doorbell of Li Jing's house rang. Seeing Li Jing sitting on the sofa like an uncle, and reflecting on the fact that I had come to Li Jing's house to eat and drink, I resigned myself to opening the door. I glanced at the situation outside the door through the cat's eyes, opened my mouth wide and said to Li Jing in surprise: "Li Jing, I think your true destiny is here." ”
Li Jing rubbed his temples, and his tone was full of helplessness: "Obediently, you open the door first." ”
"Oh." Does this place have to be filled with the sour smell of love? I cursed in my heart.
There is a fan-faced beauty standing outside the door, why is it a fan-faced beauty? Because the woman outside the door really looks like a storyteller, with willow eyebrows, apricot eyes, a little cherry mouth, and long black and smooth shawl hair. "Girl, you've traveled back in time from ancient times, right?"
The girl outside the door looked at me stunned and asked, "May I ask if this is Teacher Li Jingli's house?" ”
As soon as I wanted to speak, I felt a knock on my head: "It hurts!" I turned my head to Li Jing and complained.
Li Jing didn't look at me, and politely invited the girl outside the door in: "That's right, I'm Li Jing." Don't care what the little fool in front of you says, come in first. ”
I grimaced at Li Jing's back: "See the big fool who forgets his friends." ”
"What do you say?" Li Jing turned around and asked me, hey, his expression was so terrifying.
"No, it's nothing, do you want to drink anything, there's juice and coke, I like to drink coke, let's drink coke." I took it upon myself to bring them a drink. Why is there always a feeling of wanting to blow away that beauty, shake my head, I must be stupid by the sour smell of love outside today.
"You're welcome." The beautiful woman took the drink I handed her: "I want to come and ask Mr. Li for help today." ”
Li Jing waved his hand: "Don't be so rusty, just call me Li Jing." I haven't asked your name yet. ”
The beauty blushed: "I'm sorry, I haven't introduced myself for so long, my name is Jin Banyue." ”
"Miss Half Moon, what are you asking Li Jing to help you with?" It can't be a fake boyfriend, right? I guessed in my mind.
"It's not my business, it's my cousin's business. My cousin seems to be very unhappy lately, but because there have been so many things lately, we haven't paid much attention to him, but my cousin hasn't been home since the day before yesterday. Because we will go to Australia with our family in a few days, we thought that he was too late to say goodbye to his friends and did not come home, but he didn't come back for two days, so we called his friend He. As a result, none of his classmates saw him. So, I'd like to ask if you can help us find out. You could tell from Miss Kim's tone that she was anxious right now, her eyes were slightly red, and she looked really worried about her cousin.
Li Jing thought for a moment and asked, "What do you mean by you moving your family to the UK?" ”
Miss Jin wiped her eyes slightly with a handkerchief and replied: "My aunt's family recently got an immigration permit, so they are preparing to move to Australia, and I recently got an offer from a company there, so in order to adapt to the environment there faster, I decided to move there with my aunt to live there for a while." ”
"What does your cousin think about immigration?"
Miss Jin didn't seem to want to answer this question, and she didn't answer it for a long time.
Li Jing had no choice but to ask him in a different way: "Your cousin doesn't really want to go, right?" ”
Miss Jin nodded: "Well, my cousin doesn't seem to want to move in with us. She then explained, "Maybe he's still young, and I'm afraid that he won't have any friends over there." ”
"He's very popular here, isn't he?" Li Jing asked her after listening.
Miss Jin hesitated: "My cousin is more introverted, and he doesn't have many friends here. ”
Li Jing motioned for me to help him change the drink, and when I went to make tea, I heard Li Jing ask Miss Jin in the living room, "Didn't you call the police when you found out that this child was missing?" ”
Miss Jin's voice was a little low: "Although we both advocated going to the police, my aunt was afraid that the police records would affect my cousin's immigration process, and she didn't receive a call like a kidnapping, so she didn't feel the need to make a fuss." Thinking that my cousin was just playing a child's temper and running away from home, he would be back in a few days. But today, my cousin still hasn't come home, we are all a little worried, and my aunt still insists on not going to the police. I remembered my father, a police friend surnamed Xiao, and wanted to ask him for help, but he said that because we didn't call the police, we couldn't file a case, so I asked me to come to you. ”
It turned out to be introduced by Team Xiao, and I walked out with tea, and I heard Li Jing asking Miss Jin about her cousin: "Then tell me about your cousin." “
"My cousin is 20 years old this year, and he is a junior in the mathematics department of the University of Science and Technology. Usually the social circle is very narrow.,Only a few friends who live with the same room have a good relationship.。 Other friends, by the way, my brother loves movies, so he went to a movie lover's club, where he met a few friends who could talk to each other, and often met on weekends or holidays to talk about movies. There is nothing else, my brother's circle of contacts is very small, every time he goes out to play, he will tell us where he went and who he is with, like this time he suddenly ran away alone and did not come back for many days is really the first time. ”
"Do you have the contact information of your brother's friend?" Li Jing asked her.
"There are some, as well as my own contact information, which I have already written to you, and I know that it is very wrong to reveal these children's ** to you like this, but I really want to find my brother."
Li Jing nodded and accepted the A4 paper handed over by Miss Jin: "When are you going to leave?" ”
"Three days later, so time is really short, so please be sure to help." Miss Kim's hand kept clenching the handkerchief tightly.
Li Jing stared at the teacup in his hand and didn't speak, Miss Jin saw that she had nothing to say and was about to get up and say goodbye, when she heard Li Jing ask, "I see that you care about your cousin very much, are you very close to your cousin?" ”
Miss Jin lowered her eyelids: "Because my cousin is too introverted, in fact we rarely communicate. If it weren't for his running away from home this time, I wouldn't have noticed that he had been having a hard time lately. ”
Li Jing fell silent again, I sent Miss Jin to the door, and whispered comfortingly: "Miss Jin, don't be too anxious, maybe your cousin will go back by himself in two days." Li Jing and I will try to help you as well. ”
"I hope so." Miss Kim smiled reluctantly and said goodbye to me.
Back in the living room, I saw Li Jing scanning back and forth at the A4 piece of paper full of contact information left by Miss Jin. "See what's going on?" I asked him.
Li Jing shook his head: "For the time being, it's just a piece of waste paper full of numbers and names." ”
"Miss Jin was introduced by Team Xiao, you must not lose Team Xiao's face." I teased him.
Li Jing sneered: "I think it's because their family insists on not calling the police, that Team Xiao will throw this kind of thing to me to deal with." "After that, I put away the 'waste paper' in a single folder and put it on the shelf.
"Didn't you say it was waste paper? That's still treating it so carefully. I whispered.
"There's a fool in my house now, don't I have to eat and drink well? What do you want to eat at noon" Li Jing had already put on his apron and walked to the kitchen.
I was ridiculed again, I cried inwardly, I also squeezed into the kitchen and opened the refrigerator: "You bought anchovy shrimp?" Great, let's eat fried shrimp! ”
"Hey, it's rude to open someone else's refrigerator without permission, right?" Li Jing criticized me weakly.
"Eat fried shrimp, delicious fried shrimp." I've started picking shrimp lines.
"And the meat sauce, how about eating tomato meat sauce noodles as the staple food for a while?" Li Jing gave up preaching to me.
"Okay. You also want to blanch broccoli as a vegetarian dish, do you have seasoned soy sauce at home? ”
Li Jing smiled: "You really have a lot to do." ”
"Balanced nutrition! By the way, why don't you go buy roses to decorate your home in the afternoon? "I suddenly remembered why I felt that Li Jing's house was empty today, and how could there be no roses on Valentine's Day.
"Don't. Don't you know that roses are the most expensive today? Li Jing has already started to mix the egg liquid and pour the breadcrumbs.
"Stingy." I turned my head and grimaced at him.
"If you have a girlfriend, send her a lot of roses, are you my girlfriend?" Li Jing took the egg wash seriously.
"Take advantage of me."
"Yes, yes."
After eating at noon, I didn't want to get up on Li Jing's sofa, Li Jing swiped his mobile phone on the side: "Xiaozhi, suppose you have a younger brother missing, what will you do." ”
I glanced at Li Jing disdainfully: "Of course I'm looking for it." That's my brother! ”
"So don't you think it's weird?" Li Jing pressed off his phone and asked me.
"What's strange?" He's talking about the morning.
"Don't you think it's strange how the Jin Banyue family reacted to his brother's disappearance?" Li Jing asked me, "First of all, his cousin's mother, that is, Miss Jin's aunt, her own son disappeared, but the first thing she thought about was whether there would be a problem with immigration, and she didn't go home for three days, not only was she not in a hurry, but she would also comfort her family that she was just a child alone." In addition, the rest of Miss Kim's family seemed to believe in his aunt's relief and did not appear to be particularly anxious. On the contrary, Miss Jin herself is particularly concerned about her cousin's disappearance. Don't you think it's strange that their family has two diametrically opposed attitudes? It seems that Miss Kim's aunt expected her son to be in no danger. ”
I thought about it along Li Jing's train of thought, and this family seemed really strange.
