Resurrection (End)
Time is like a white horse, and now that spring has begun, Lin Jin'er took off her thick coat at this time, changed into a windbreaker, and prepared to continue to look for it at the beach.
I was walking towards the station when my phone rang and a familiar voice came.
"I'll be there early in the afternoon, and I'm almost done with my work today."
"Well, bring me something to eat, the shops on the beach are too expensive."
Lin Jin'er hung up the phone and got on the bus that was getting more and more crowded.
When I arrived at the beach, there were already people picking up shells or catching small crabs, and after the temperature slowly rose, the shops that were not open were all open today as if they had agreed.
"Hello, let's have a sauce fried squid."
At this time, it was not a meal, except for Lin Jin'er, there was only one uncle left in the store who was leisurely eating seafood noodles.
"Boss, the weather has been warm lately."
While waiting for the dishes, Lin Jin'er chatted with the man who was sitting in a daze at the front desk.
"It's early, at least at the end of May, when it's colder on the beach than in other places."
"By the way, boss, I heard that a girl jumped into the sea last year?"
Lin Jin'er has said this line countless times, including the people who come to catch the sea every day, and the aunt who sells goods in a cart, but there is no gain.
"Jumping into the sea? I haven't heard about it, when did it happen? ”
"Probably last fall."
Lin Jin'er replied casually, obviously the money for this sauce fried squid was spent in vain.
"Supposedly, this kind of thing should be quite sensational, I haven't heard of it, but every year there are one or two people who come to seek death, but it doesn't seem to be successful."
"Huh?"
Originally, Lin Jin'er had lost interest and lowered her head to prepare for dinner, but when she heard this, her eyes lit up.
"Boss, have you seen it?"
"I haven't seen it, but I've heard of it."
As he spoke, the boss pointed to the uncle who had drunk the soup and was burping, "Brother Zhang." ”
"Hmm."
Uncle squinted his eyes and wiped the haze on his glasses, and then said.
"I saw a girl come over last year, and she should be looking for death."
"How?"
"It was probably in May, when the meeting was just starting to get started, and the woman didn't come to see the scenery or catch crabs and clams, so it was quite conspicuous."
The old man coughed a few times and continued.
"My wife and I usually make a living on this beach, she carries a cart to buy drinks and stuff like that, and I dig clams on the shore or snails in the reef area and then use them to exchange some money for the surrounding restaurants."
In the reef area, Lin Jin'er became a little more serious when she heard that there was a door.
"That woman looks like she's about thirty-four or five years old, and she wears a brand that we don't know about, but she looks pretty rich. I came here for four or five weekends in a row, and I thought that this woman was not ordinary, and I thought that this woman was not ordinary. ”
"Uncle, do you remember what she looked like?"
"Yo, I can't describe it, she usually wears sunglasses, and occasionally takes them off to take a closer look. But...... If I saw it again, I would recognize it. ”
Lin Jin'er was so excited that she hurriedly took out Gu Shi's photo and showed it to her uncle.
"Not this one."
The uncle shook his head and said with certainty, Lin Jin'er gave the uncle a strange look.
"How can you be so sure?"
"The woman I saw was a lot taller than her, she was so short."
Immediately afterwards, the uncle said a few more words about the general situation, Lin Jin'er was a little confused, but she still thanked her and left her uncle's contact information.
After Lin Jin'er walked out of the shop, the boss said mysteriously.
"I think this girl should be a plainclothes person, come to investigate the case, you look at that look, revealing a shrewdness."
Of course, Lin Jin'er couldn't hear this kind of compliment, and at this time she was waiting for Bai Zechen to turn with herself.
"I just met an uncle......"
Lin Jin'er recounted what happened just now to Bai Zechen, and after the analysis of the two people, she came to a conclusion that Gu Shi was an accomplice, and the time when this incident appeared and the woman's behavior were too coincidental.
…………………………
Another two months have passed, and there has been no news since the last time Lin Jin'er told the detectives what she found out, until today.
"I've made an appointment, let's go over together in a moment."
The detective seemed more excited, and it was rare to see him have such an expression other than to see money.
"Let us know what the situation is beforehand."
The detective pondered with his mouth open.
"I don't know what's going on, let's talk about it when we meet."
In this way, several people waited at the agreed fast food restaurant with big eyes, and after a long time, a woman in her thirties appeared, Lin Jin'er trembled in her heart, could it be that this woman is the accomplice?
"Hello, I'm an employee of the comic studio, my name is Yang Cai."
The woman's expression was very calm and calm, she sat in front of the two people, and without waiting for them to ask, she took the initiative to open the conversation.
"He appeared near our studio for months in a row, and you know that those of us who draw comics have a lot of brains, and I thought this man was following a girl, so I paid a little more attention, and then I found out that he was a detective."
The woman's voice was calm and nice, and several people listened silently.
"Later, through chatting, I learned that you were tracking down Lin Jin'er's affairs, I took a few months off because of my illness, and Lin Jin'er's affairs were also learned through other me, I have always had a pimple in my heart, and I hesitated for a long time and decided to tell you."
There was a hint of hesitation in the woman's expression, and she pursed her mouth and was silent for a long time.
Finally.
"At the beginning of spring last year, because we needed materials by the sea, the boss Gu Shi and I discussed with me to let me go over to investigate, originally I still had unfinished works in my hands and didn't want to go, but because Gu Shi gave me 20,000 yuan of activity funds, so I finally agreed, I have not been in good health, work is always intermittent, 20,000 yuan is very important to me."
"Hmmm......"
Lin Jin'er responded with feelings, and the woman continued.
"At that time, Gu Shi told me that I needed to look for the kind of loneliness and inner struggle that seemed to be highlighted, so after I arrived at the beach, I kept looking for scenery that fit this setting, and I went to it nearly seven or eight times intermittently......"
"It seems that the uncle is not mistaken."
Lin Jin'er whispered to Bai Zechen and exchanged glances.
"The place where Lin Jin'er fell down happens to be the place recommended by me and Gu Shi......"
Finally, the woman said the point, and the detective hurriedly asked.
"Then do you know that Gu Shi stole Lin Jin'er's work."
"Not only Lin Jin'er, but also some newcomers who come to our studio, Gu Shi will do this, and if he uses his name to publish, the income will be higher, and everyone acquiesces to these things. If you don't agree, you can't stay in the studio. ”
"It's actually like this, it turns out that 'Lin Jin'er' has been squeezed by Gu Shi for so long."
Lin Jin'er sighed when she heard this.
"Well, there's no way around it. If you need to, I can repeat what I just said, and I don't know anything else. ”
In the woman's expression, it was not difficult for several people to see that the accident of 'Lin Jin'er' was definitely related to Gu Shi, but what this woman saw and knew was not enough to prove that Gu Shi was the murderer.
"Okay, thank you."
After another period of conversation, the detective's thank you ended the meeting.
"How? Do you want to continue to help with the investigation? It seems to be a lot more troublesome than we expected. ”
The detective stood at the corner of the street, looking at Lin Jin'er and Bai Zechen.
"Let's think about it."
Indeed, Lin Jin'er and Bai Zechen have paid too much for this matter, and the detective doesn't know what the two of them are thinking, and it is normal for them to give up.
"We'll get back to you after we've thought about it."
Bai Zechen looked at Lin Jin'er's worried appearance and discussed a few words with the detective, preparing to leave with Lin Jin'er.
And Lin Jin'er was recalling the woman's narrative and the photos of the seaside on display at this time.
- poof.
Lin Jin'er was unconscious again, this time she clearly saw that she fell head-on into the sea, and clearly felt that there was a pair of hands behind her back pushing her forward, and she clearly saw the person waiting for her in her subconscious.
When Lin Jin'er wakes up again, if she can wake up successfully, then she will not only complete the final test of the boss of the tsundere system, but also be glad that the person she loves and the person who loves her has always been by her side and has never left......
