Chapter 6 Reality Roundtable 5

Xiao Qihan held an apple in one hand and a paintbrush in the other, drawing blue lines on the virtual drawing board, and she rotated the angle from time to time to draw this suspended 3D figure.

"So, what are you doing today? Or is it just to go to the crime scene on the first floor to see what is going on? ”

"No, I'd like to know about your father's day-to-day relationships, did he mention any good friends or business partners to you?"

"I don't know, he rarely tells me about it, I don't understand his economic theories and stock market conditions, and I don't want to understand them."

"Did you feel anything strange about your father before you left home? For example, you have a short temper or are you uneasy in your daily behavior? ”

Xiao Qihan tilted his head and thought about it, and shook his head; "I didn't talk to him much, he was usually busy in the study downstairs until the middle of the night, and my room was on the second floor, I usually slept until noon and didn't get up, and every time I went downstairs, he had already gone to the company."

Adam listened to Xiao Qihan's words and wrote down the words "lack of communication between father and daughter" on the tablet.

“…… The information says that you have been dropped out of school for fighting? Only then did you transfer to your current high school? ”

Xiao Qihan glared at Adam unhappily: "It's those bitches who usually make things difficult for me and put on small shoes for me, I really can't bear it, so I beat them in the toilet after school, but I didn't expect them to cry and cry to the school director's side, and the wicked people sued first." ”

"You're pretty good too, one person beats four people."

"Five to be exact, and one ran away and called the security guards, otherwise I wouldn't have let them go so easily." Xiao Qihan snorted disdainfully.

Adam nodded meaningfully, and then wrote on the tablet, "Xiao Qihan is a problem girl with violent tendencies. ”

"Hey, officer, you don't remember anything nice." Xiao Qihan glanced at Adam.

In a word, Adam looked away a little weakly: "Routine business, routine business." ”

Xiao Qihan retracted her gaze and continued to complete her three-dimensional painting.

She seemed to be drawing a four-like animal, she had drawn the lower body of a canine, but the head did not seem to be a canine, but a more complex pattern, the animal had four legs with hooves, covered with black hair, a pair of demon-like wings, and a long tail behind it, which looked imposing.

"There's a question I've always wanted to ask."

"You say."

"Your father's name is Eric Jackson, why is your name Xiao Qihan? It seems to be a Chinese name. ”

"Because my mother is Chinese, when we were born, she gave us Chinese names, although my father also gave us names, but I didn't like them, so I didn't use English names, but always used Chinese names."

"We?"

Xiao Qihan turned his head to look at Adam: "...... You noticed, there are a couple of rooms on the second floor. ”

"Including bathrooms, there are four of them."

"That's right." Xiao Qihan pointed out the door with a paintbrush, "One is the bathroom, one is my room, one is the master bedroom, which is my parents' room, and the other is my sister's room." ”

Adam lowered his head and retrieved the data on the tablet: "The data of the population system says that your mother has died, and your sister ......"

"It's a criminal." Xiao Qi answered coldly.

"I'm sorry, I didn't mean to offend." Adam looked at her guiltily.

"It's okay, the bitches at school always taunt me with my sister, so I beat them up."

“…… Are you going to hit me? ”

"No, you're a policeman, and if I hit you, I'm attacking a policeman." Xiao Qihan turned around and continued to paint.

(Say it as if you could have beaten it.) )

Adam thought silently, a smile rising into his mouth.

"Do you think the murderer of this crime has something to do with your sister?"

“…… No. Xiao Qihan replied without looking back, but the pen in her hand drew a little faster.

Adam narrowed his eyes slightly: "You...... Are you so sure? ”

As soon as Xiao Qihan stopped her brush, she looked at the 3D painting in front of her and muttered: "She is a person who doesn't even dare to pinch an ant to death, how can she be a felon...... She must have been wronged. ”

Xiao Qihan's words sounded very familiar to Adam.

He used to argue for the same thing, for Sheriff Osborne, but alas, no one believed him.

All did not understand his insistence and believed only the cold evidence.

"Forget it, you won't understand." Xiao Qihan shook his head and continued to paint.

He watched as she sketched the outline of the beast's head, adding in the details, and only after a while did he speak.

"No, I can understand."

Xiao Qihan paused and looked back at him.

"The sheriff who took me before was also wrongfully imprisoned, they said he was a murderer, and said that the murder weapon and the corpse had his DNA on it, but I don't believe it, he must have been wronged."

“…… But what's the use of only you believing in him? ”

"I'm still alive, I can continue to pursue the truth, as long as I don't give up, there must be hope."

“……”

Xiao Qihan looked at the firmness in Adam's eyes, was silent for a long time, and bowed his head silently.

"Perhaps, you're right, if even their closest people have given up on them, who else in this world will believe them."

"Yes."

"I didn't expect you to be a lover too." Xiao Qihan smiled rarely.

"Do I look serious?" Adam touched his face.

"No, as soon as I opened the door just now, I saw that your face was not very good, and I thought that you were the same cold person as the policemen that night."

Adam scratched his head: "Maybe because of the recent case and lack of sleep, his face is not very good." ”

Xiao Qihan turned around and continued to paint.

“…… Have you decided that you want to continue living here? ”

"Or else?"

"We have found out that your father has several houses under his name, and you can go to other villas to live, and there is no need to continue to live at the scene of the murder."

"Hmph, forget it, those villas are for him to keep women, I won't go there, so I don't have to see dirty things."

Xiao Qihan said very bluntly, his eyes were full of disdain.

"You're saying that Mr. Eric is in a lover relationship with several women at the same time?"

"I know of three or four, but most of them are one-night stands, he rarely brings them back here, it's my agreement with him, it's none of my business that he messes around outside, but in this room, I don't allow other women to come in."

“…… In other words, the person who came on the night of the crime should be a man. Adam was busy jotting down important information on the tablet, "But it doesn't rule out love killing, maybe these women also have complex backgrounds." ”

"Well, that's right, you'd better get them all arrested and put in the bureau."

"You hate them?"

"Generally speaking, to put it bluntly, they are just my father's lover, I don't care what they do, but they actually want to marry my father and give birth to a child to divide the family property, which I can't bear."

Adam nodded.

"If you want their information, you can go to my father's private secretary, she knows all about it, after all, she is covering up every day."

"Okay." Adam hurriedly wrote it down.

"By the way, by the way......" Xiao Qihan turned his head, a sarcastic smile tugging at the corner of his mouth, "That secretary is my father's longest-time lover." ”

Adam chuckled in his heart, but then realized that these things were not uncommon in the financial street.

What male doesn't get satisfaction by conquering a female?

What's more, these rich people who are already rich in their pockets, women are just life supplements for them, they don't need to be heart-to-heart, they just need to go to the kidneys.

"Thank you for your cooperation, I have investigated a lot of information today." Adam stood up and prepared to leave, "My colleague said you don't like to talk, I thought I would run for nothing today." ”

"I don't like to talk to those fake cops, but you're different, you're ...... It's a little funny, and it's easy to talk to you. ”

"Tease??" Adam has a "are you being funny" look on his face.

Xiao Qihan nodded, and she put down her paintbrush.

"Just so I've finished drawing, I'll send you downstairs."

“…… The creature you drew is so strange that it doesn't seem to be an existing creature. ”

"Of course not, it's called [Qiqi], it's a monster in the Classic of Mountains and Seas." Xiao Qihan looked at his work with satisfaction, "It is also one of the four ancient murders in Chinese myths and legends, contained in the "Classic of Mountains and Seas, the North Classic of the Sea", which looks like a tiger, has a pair of wings, likes to eat people, and will start eating from the tail of a person, it is a vicious beast. ”

Looks like a tiger?

Adam almost said that he thought she was drawing dogs at first.

“…… You can add my contact details and contact me if you have any questions, or if you can think of any details related to this case and find suspicious people. ”

Adam took out his mobile phone as he spoke, Qi Han hesitated, and also took out his mobile phone, and the two exchanged contact information.

……

At this moment, in a black car parked near Lexington Avenue, someone was eavesdropping on Adam's conversation with Qi Han through a miniature tracker mounted on Adam's body.

"Wang-"

The beagle beside him wagged his tail and barked, and the man lowered his head and touched the beagle's head: "Good boy, the tracker is on him, it helps us a lot." ”
