Along the way, Uncle Yuan first introduced Lin Duxue to the person he was going to meet later, it is said that he is the owner of a jewelry design company, and he is very interested in diamonds and jewelry. His name is Xue Jing, and he is a thirty-six-year-old middle-aged man. It's a little weird, but it's also very easy to get along with, he loves tea, so he may invite them to tea later, which is absolutely unrefusal, and you must know how to be polite. Otherwise, if that person doesn't like it, he will just drive them away. When Uncle Yuan said this, Lin Duxue became interested in this strange person, so she asked more things, such as how this person looked and what his temper was. The more Lin Duxue listened, the more strange she felt. Such a person, I don't know how Uncle Yuan met, it's completely different from Uncle Yuan's temper, it's a miracle to be able to become friends. Uncle Yuan quickly explained to her that it was because of a jewelry case that he came into contact with this person, and although he had a bad temper, Uncle Yuan liked to drink tea as much as he did, so he hit it off at first sight. Slowly getting acquainted with each other became friends.

As he spoke, he also came to Xue Jing's house. The house is nicely decorated, two-storey villa, somewhat European style. Soon a security guard came and opened the door, Lin Duxue and they followed behind Uncle Yuan, and the security guard said that Xue Jing was waiting for him in the reception room on the second floor. The security guard took them into the house, said let them go up on their own, and left. Uncle Yuan once again explained that Wang Lin should not mess around. Wang Lin agreed again and again, and Uncle Yuan took them up to the second floor with confidence and went straight to Xue Jing. Xue Jing was really tasting tea, and as soon as he saw Uncle Yuan, he politely invited them to sit down, and then poured tea for everyone.

Drink tea. Lin Duxue didn't like it, and she didn't hate it, so she just dealt with it so-so. However, to Lin Duxue's surprise, Wang Lin was very good at drinking tea, and because of this, he talked to Xue Jing first. Xue Jing praised him very much for tasting tea, "I didn't expect Boss Wang's son to be so tasteful, and now there are not many young people who can taste tea, which is really rare." ”

"You're laughing." Wang Lin responded politely. "Because my dad actually loves tea too, so he played small. I learned to drink from him. It's also a habit. ”

"Okay, okay." Xue Jing said with a smile. Then he looked at Uncle Yuan and asked him. "You told me on the phone that you were looking for me to help with something, what is it? Let's hear it. ”

"That's right." Lin Duxue couldn't help but open her mouth first. This person obviously treats her as air. Ma Tianteng didn't have anything to do with him. So, it's okay not to be ignored, but Lin Duxue feels that this person is too much. It's just that she doesn't know how to drink tea, so she treats her like this. "I have a precious thing in my hand, Uncle Yuan said that Boss Xue has the most research on gems and something, I am a layman, I don't know anything about this, so I asked Uncle Yuan to take me to ask Boss Xue, I don't know if you can recognize it."

"Huh." Xue Jing smiled a little disdainfully and said. "But there is no pearl and gem that I do not recognize. Little girl, if you have anything precious, just take it out, if I don't recognize it, I don't have to open this jewelry company. ”

"Boss Xue is serious, Twilight just wants to ask for advice." Lin Duxue said, took out the necklace, and handed it to Xue Jing.

Xue Jing took the necklace and didn't look at the necklace immediately, but looked at Lin Duxue and asked, "Duxue?" You can't be Lin Duxue, right? The Female Detective who saved Tidal City? The heirs of the Ghost Shadow Gate? ”

"Yes." Lin Duxue almost gritted her teeth and said this word, as soon as she entered the door, Uncle Yuan did not introduce them, and Xue Jing was no stranger to Wang Lin and Ma Tianteng, so she must have known each other. ignored her alone, and didn't give her a chance to introduce her, which really made her feel super unhappy. "Twilight Xue is just a student of the Dao, and she can't talk about a woman who is not a woman."

"Miss Lin is too modest." Xue Jing immediately put on a gentle, polite face and looked at Lin Duxue and said. "It's mine, no, I actually snubbed Miss Lin, Miss Lin, please don't mind. Don't worry, this thing, I will definitely give you a satisfactory this? ”

Xue Jing glanced down at the necklace, the words were fixed on his lips, and he looked at it carefully for a while. He stood up again and took a magnifying glass, looked at it again and again for a while, and then said in surprise, "This can't be the legendary Tearsoflove who appeared in England and then mysteriously disappeared, right?" ”

"Boss Xue really lives up to his reputation." Lin Duxue said with a smile, thinking that Ma Tianteng didn't know the goods, and I didn't know if this person really knew the origin of the connection. Ma Tianteng took it and looked at it for so long before he came to a conclusion, he didn't know the source, Lin Duxue thought, this old boy is also a braggart.

"I didn't expect it, I didn't expect that something that had been missing for nearly sixty years would still appear in this world." Xue Jing kept shaking his head and sighing, "I have always learned about it through various materials, and I thought that I would never have the opportunity to see it in this life, but I didn't expect to see the real thing today." ”

"Is there anything special about today?" Lin Duxue asked curiously.

"It's my birthday." Xue Jing said with a happy smile on his face. "The banquet is not here, in the house in the city, my wife and children are already busy there, I just don't like it, so I came to the villa to drink tea and prepare to go over in the evening."

What a weirdo, Lin Duxue thought, on her birthday, and ran to hide. But this is not the purpose of coming, Lin Duxue hurriedly asked. "Since Boss Xue recognizes it, do you know its origin?"

Xue Jing looked at the connection and nodded, "I know something." ”

"Please also tell me that these are important to me." Lin Duxue said sincerely, although she hates this person very much, but now that she has a request for him, she can't show it too much.

"What do you want to know all this for?" Xue Jing looked at Lin Duxue and asked rhetorically. "If it's important, I'll have to consider the value of the information I'm giving you."

"How much money do you want, make a price." Since the other party said so, Lin Duxue didn't go around in circles with him, and said it bluntly.

"I don't want money, does Miss Lin think I'm like a person who is short of money?" Xue Jing asked rhetorically again.

"Whew." Lin Duxue exhaled lightly, but it wasn't that he was confused, but that she knew what he was going to do. Now it's easier. Lin Duxue took a sip of tea, the bitter taste spread all over her tongue, she shook her head, and put down the cup. Said "Tea tasting is really not for me, I don't have such a peaceful heart to wait for sweetness." ”

"But you have to learn to expect sweetness." Xue Jing said. Seeing that Lin Duxue didn't speak, this time he was confused, and only after a while did he sigh and say. "I just want to ask Miss Lin for help."

"Let's start with the value." Lin Duxue looked at him and said. "Boss Xue is a businessman, I can be considered half now, the ghost shadow store has only been open for half a month, but it needs a little performance."

"Hehehehehe. Miss Lin is such a cheerful person. Then I'll get straight to the point. Xue Jing smiled. All the information about this necklace. Then the honorarium, Miss Lin opened casually. What do you think? ”

"Honoraria is a must, but it's not a great value. I also know a little bit about the necklace. I don't know if Boss Xue knows the same as I know. If there is no more information. Didn't I lose money? "Lin Duxue sometimes doesn't like herself. But in the face of this kind of person, she feels that she has only this way.

"How much does Miss Lin know, she can tell." Xue Jing said confidently.

"First of all. The necklace is called Tearsoflove and first appeared in the UK. Mysteriously disappeared in the fifties of the last century. Its workmanship, materials are all unique. Lin Duxue simply told Ma Tianteng the information he told her.

"Oh, and do you know where that name came from? Do you know where it appeared in the UK and disappeared? If that's not enough, I have another story about it here. I don't know if Miss Lin thinks these are valuable. Xue Jing said in one breath.

Lin Duxue nodded and said, "Deal, then just this information, and then the remuneration is one million." ”

"Twilight." Uncle Yuan, who had never spoken, couldn't help but open his mouth and said, "Boss Xue is my friend, can't this honorarium be charged less?" ”

"Hahahaha, Uncle Yuan, it's okay." Xue Jing waved his hand and said, "As long as Miss Lin can handle it, this money is nothing, and it won't affect anything." ”

"I'm making an offer based on the seriousness of the matter." Lin Duxue looked at Xue Jing and said, "Looking at your complexion, I know that things are not simple, one million still depends on Uncle Yuan's face, otherwise, three million will not be discussed." ”

"Is it that serious?" Uncle Yuan frowned and asked, a little suspicious in his heart that Lin Duxue was unhappy with Xue Jing's attitude towards her and deliberately got angry, after all, she was just a little girl.

Lin Duxue nodded, looked at Uncle Yuan and asked, "Uncle Yuan, you don't believe me?" ”

"No, no, Twilight, of course Uncle Yuan believes you. I just don't know how Boss Xue could be like this. Speaking of this, Uncle Yuan looked back at Ma Tianteng and said, "Master Ma, we only met Boss Xue a few days ago, don't you see anything unusual?" ”

"This" Ma Tianteng looked at it carefully, but he really couldn't see what was going on, so he had to shake his head ashamedly. "It's because I don't have enough Taoism, I really can't see it, Boss Xue is full of heaven and ruddy, I can't see what's wrong."

"Hehehehe," Xue Jing smiled, and with this smile, Ma Tianteng lowered his head with a red face. Then he said, "I will agree to Miss Lin's request, and then this matter will be handed over to Miss Lin." ”

"No problem." Lin Duxue said immediately. "So, Boss Xue can tell me about the beginning and end of the matter, right?"

"Please also ask Miss Lin to come with me, you alone is enough." Xue Jing said, returned the necklace to Lin Duxue, and stood up.

Lin Duxue nodded and stood up. Xue Jing said to the others, "Please sit down for a while, let's go and go back." ”

"Boss Xue, please." Uncle Yuan replied politely, Ma Tianteng also nodded, and Wang Lin looked at Lin Duxue with blank eyes, obviously wanting to follow. Lin Duxue shook her head at him, and Wang Lin calmed down.

Xue Jing led Lin Duxue to his study, which was locked, Xue Jing said as he opened the door. "This study has been locked up since the accident. This is where things all began. ”

The lock was opened, and Lin Duxue followed him in. The furnishings inside are rustic, with a red carpet on the floor, and then a few bookshelves against the wall, a desk, a chair, and nothing else. The only thing that stood out was a red wooden box on the desk.

"Miss Lin, you can see it, it's this wooden box." Xue Jing pointed to the box and said, "This box was given to me by a businessman friend of mine, and it contained a green diamond, which was not very valuable, but because there was a spider in the diamond." I don't know how it came to be, but I liked it when I saw it, and my friend generously gave it to me. ”

"And then?" Lin Duxue lifted the box and looked at it, and sure enough, it was a diamond the size of a pigeon's egg, crystal clear, and there was a spider in the middle, as if it was crawling out. Lin Duxue didn't need to look too much, she also knew that the problem was here, and this evil spirit couldn't escape her psychic eyes.

"When I got back, I took my things to the study." Xue Jing thought about it and said. "I wanted to watch it and write about my feelings, and I've always had a habit of that. At that time, my wife lived here with me, and she also had a white cat. That day, she came in with the cat in her arms, and asked curiously what good things I had gotten, and I showed her the jewels. However, when she saw the jewel, the cat in her arms suddenly went berserk and scratched her wrist and ran away. I felt sorry for my wife and hurriedly took the medicine kit, only to find her fainting on the ground when I came back, vomiting blood from her mouth. After being sent to the hospital, the doctor said that the place where the cat scratched was not poisonous, it was fine, and it was impossible to find out why it was vomiting blood. I was discharged from the hospital. ”

"And then, is there anything unusual about your wife's behavior?" Lin Duxue asked.

"Yes." Xue Jing nodded and continued. "When I came back from the hospital, the area where I was scratched by the cat was healed. It's just that my wife would be in a coma all day every three days, and during her coma, I also had nightmares, always dreaming that she said I was sorry for her and was going to kill me. I really don't know what to do, and I've asked a lot of warlocks to look at it, but I can't see why. Later, the incident in Tidal City happened, and I heard about Miss Lin's deeds, and I always wanted to invite Miss Lin, but I was very busy for the last week. Now that Miss Lin is here, I believe it is God's arrangement. Please also ask Miss Lin to think of a way. ”

"I'll ask you a few questions first and answer me truthfully, otherwise I won't care about it." Lin Duxue said seriously. "First, how long has your wife been like this, and second, do you have a lover outside? Third, does your child know about it? What are their moods? ”

"Don't hide it from Miss Lin," Xue Jing said with a sigh, "My wife has been like this for a month, and I used to love my wife very much, but in recent years, due to the busyness of business, it has faded." I was also taken care of by my secretary, and I gradually developed feelings for her. Her name is Wu Xiaoye, and at first, I didn't know that I would fall in love with her. But the emotional thing is really out of the ordinary. I have two children, both sons, the older one is called Xue Lin is fifteen years old, and the younger son is called Xue Fang, who is also fourteen years old. They were fine, the eldest son followed me, and the younger son followed his mother. Both children were very sensible and never asked about us, but after this incident, they also hated me, hating me for not taking good care of their mother, and for having this strange disease. Nothing else. ”

Lin Duxue didn't say anything, lifted the blanket on the ground, and there were blood stains on the ground in front of the desk. Lin Duxue thought that this carpet should have been laid later. I vaguely felt that Xue Jing's words could not be fully believed. But I'm sure I can't ask anything more. Just said, "I'll take over this matter, and when the time comes, Boss Xue will be hard to chase after him, don't forget what we said." ”

"Miss Lin, don't worry, what you want to know, I will definitely tell you all when the time comes." Xue Jing replied affirmatively. (To be continued......)
