Chapter 53: The Big One
The room was filled with laughter until the night fell silent.
At 7:00, the mobile phone alarm rang on time, Amelia quickly picked up the mobile phone next to the pillow and turned off the alarm clock, and looked to the side, Qin Jinjun was still asleep, she breathed a sigh of relief, kissed Qin Jinjun on the cheek, got up and washed.
At 8:49, Qin Jinjun slowly opened his eyes, turned his head to look at the empty position next to him, and his eyes showed a little loss. She rolled over and buried her face in the pillow where Amelia had stolen, sniffing hard at the scent of the shampoo she had left on it. After lying on the bed for a while, Qin Jinjun got up and walked back to his room to wash, then went to the kitchen to make breakfast, and began to work after eating.
Qin Jinjun forgot to turn off the laptop before entering the room yesterday, and now it is completely out of power, she took out the charging cable from her bag and plugged it in the computer, waiting for it to be charged enough to turn on. Last night, it was not only the laptop that was left outside, but also the mobile phone, and she opened the phone to check the missed information while the computer could not be turned on.
Fang Yanqing asked on WeChat at 7:27: Jinjun, how are you doing? Why didn't you come back to class? Please reply to me when you are free, I'm worried about you.
Qin Jinjun replied simply on the screen: It's okay.
Jiang Che sent her the homework assigned yesterday at about nine o'clock last night, and she replied simply: Received.
In the end, Chen Xiao sent her the progress report of the garment factory on WeChat, and she didn't click on it to see it, and replied directly: Okay, continue to monitor.
The laptop screen lit up, Qin Jinjun put her phone aside, picked up the pink notebook next to the computer, opened the pages she folded, and read the contents again:
On April 3rd, my father took me to meet my aunt who likes to ask me questions, and she asked me a lot of questions today, but I didn't answer them because I didn't want to talk, and I was afraid that my father would beat and scold me again when I opened my mouth.
Like when I came here last week, I sat in the chair opposite my aunt and watched her quietly, and as long as I stayed here for an hour, my dad would come and pick me up. Just when the time was almost up, my aunt took out a pink notebook from the drawer and handed it to me, she said, "Give you a diary, write down everything you want to say in it every day, and keep the notebook so that others will not be afraid that others will see the contents inside." ”
When I got home, I couldn't wait to open my notebook, pick up a pen and write on it, and it felt so good to talk freely, and I decided to write a diary every day from today onwards.
This day's diary ends here, and Qin Jinjun turns to the next page she folded:
On April 10th, it was time to meet that aunt again, and today she asked me a lot of questions.
Miraculously, I involuntarily answered a question from her. She smiled and asked me if I had kept a diary, and I nodded. She asked me if journaling made me feel better, and I replied yes, and the voice sounded hoarse, and I was startled, not at all like my own voice. My aunt immediately poured me a glass of water, and I felt much better after drinking it.
An hour later, I was about to leave, and my aunt told my dad that my condition was getting better and suggested that I go volunteering. Dad asked my aunt why, and she said that the people who worked there were very friendly, and the atmosphere was full of positive energy, so that my mentality would be good when I stayed with them, and Dad nodded and agreed.
At the end of the diary, Qin Jinjun turned the page again:
On April 11, my dad took me to the neighborhood integrated service centre, where I became the youngest volunteer. The brothers and sisters there are very friendly, they always have warm smiles on their faces, and there are many kind-looking uncles and aunts who take good care of me.
But there is a very strange person here, who is super tall, always wears a long-sleeved shirt, black glasses and a mask on hot days, and always hides in the corner without saying a word. Luckily, the manager didn't put me in the same group as a strange person to clean up the streets, this person is really weird.
At the end of the diary, Qin Jinjun turned the page:
On April 19th, today I was assigned to a strange person to pick up garbage in the area at the end of the street, at first I didn't dare to approach him, but after a period of getting along, I felt that this person was very good, he said that if I was tired, I would sit aside and rest, and then he would check all the garbage himself.
It was the first time I had heard someone strange speak, and his voice was hoarse, just like the first time I spoke to my aunt. I asked the strange guy if you were an older brother or a younger sister, and he didn't answer. So I said you're so tall, I guess you're the older brother. Then strange people told me that everyone who knew him called him Da Ji, so I called him Da Ji too.
At the end of the diary, Qin Jinjun turned to the last folded page, which was also the last page with the diary:
On September 6, the security guards in the supermarket and the aunt who wrongly accused me of stealing her wallet appeared on the news today, and they were all arrested by the police uncles.
On the news, there was a very beautiful sister who took my classmate Wang Ruoxuan's hand and walked around the supermarket, and she said that Wang Ruoxuan did not steal the wallet. But I didn't steal it! Why didn't my beautiful sister hold my hand and talk to me at that time? It was really unfair and I couldn't help but cry. My dad was very happy, he smiled and told me that we could go to those scammers and lose money, and then take me to eat fast food, go to the playground, and do things that make me happy, but I couldn't be happy.
Thank you, thank you for your companionship in the past few months, you have made me smile, you have made me feel warm, you have made me see the light. I'm going to go to the heaven you told me about now, and if it's as good as you described, I'll write back to you, just as your mother used to send you letters in heaven, and I'll send you a letter every month, and you won't feel alone.
Goodbye big, goodbye brothers and sisters at the service center, goodbye dad.
At the end of the diary, Qin Jinjun closed the diary, she raised her hand and touched her chin, the corner of her right mouth gradually rose, and there was an expression on her face that seemed to be smiling but not smiling. The mobile phone on the side suddenly vibrate, and she picked it up to see that it was Lan Jingguo calling.
"Uncle Lan, what's wrong?" Qin Jinjun answered the phone and spoke first.
"I'm in the car dealership now, your car has been repaired, and the cost is reimbursed by our section chief, do you want to come and get it now?" Lan Jingguo asked.
"I'm too lazy to go over, why don't you send it over, I'll send you my friend's address." Qin Jinjun said in a slightly coquettish tone.
Lan Jingguo was silent for a moment and agreed: "Okay, it just so happened that the section chief approved your agreement, and I will bring it to you by the way." After speaking, he was about to hang up the phone, but he seemed to remember something, and hurriedly added: "Have you finished reading Guan Xiaolin's diary?" ”
Qin Jinjun's eyes fell on the diary in his hand, his eyes rolled for a moment, and he replied: "Not yet, I wasn't very comfortable yesterday, I plan to read it today." ”
Lan Jingguo on the other end of the phone sighed and said: "If the content in it is related to these two murders, then this diary is very important evidence, and it should be read to the traffic police station as soon as possible." ”
"Gotta get it, don't sigh at me, I can't stand it." Qin Jinjun continued to complain dissatisfiedly: "This is the evidence I found, what's wrong with putting it here for a few days, I said that I should read it first and then hand it in, and if you urge me to tear it up." ”
Lan Jingguo was silent, and it was estimated that his expression had become ugly.
"The address was sent to your WeChat, hurry up and send my car and the agreement over, I'm in a hurry to use the car." Qin Jinjun urged and hung up the phone.
More than 30 minutes later, Lan Jingguo called again, and he said that he had gone downstairs. Qin Jinjun asked him to park his motorcycle in the parking lot on the first basement floor, and then take the elevator up to the thirty-ninth floor.
After a few more minutes, the doorbell rang at the door, and Qin Jinjun put on his slippers to open the door. In addition to Lan Jingguo standing outside the door, there is also Tang Criminal Police. Let the two of them into the house, Detective Tang handed back the car keys to Qin Jinjun and teased: "You dress so neatly every time we meet." ”
Qin Jinjun ignored her, pointed to the dining table in front of the kitchen, and said, "Come and sit here, I made a little mess on the sofa." ”
"Friends of rich people are really rich people, and many people can't afford to save a lifetime of money for a high-end apartment like this." Detective Tang commented in a sour tone.
After the two sat down, Qin Jinjun sneered and asked, "What do you want to drink?" Except for cheap tea at the police station, there was everything in the fridge. ”
"No, let's get down to business." Lan Jingguo waved his hand.
Qin Jinjun shrugged, walked into the kitchen, opened the refrigerator and took a can of iced Coke.
Lan Jingguo put the document bag on the table, took out the agreement inside and spread it on the table. Qin Jinjun sat opposite him, opened the canned Coke in his hand and made a loud sound, first poured a few sips into his mouth, exhaled coolly, and then put the Coke aside, picked up the agreement on the table and looked at it carefully.
"Special Adviser to the Criminal Investigation Division, Superintendent II II." Qin Jinjun muttered out the position set up for her by the head of the Criminal Investigation Section and the level of the position, she nodded with satisfaction and said, "Yes, it sounds quite lofty, please give me a pen." ”
Criminal Police Tang reacted quickly, took out a black signature pen from his jacket pocket and handed it to Qin Jinjun. She took the pen and wrote down her name under the signature of the head of the Criminal Investigation Section.
"Okay, we'll be colleagues from now on." Qin Jinjun showed a smug smile on his face and handed back the agreement and pen.
Lan Jingguo put the agreement into the document bag and replied lightly: "Don't talk too much, the case hasn't been solved yet." ”
Qin Jinjun smiled and said nothing about this, and before they left, Qin Jinjun advised: "A security guard will be released tomorrow, you send more people to keep an eye on it, maybe you can catch the murderer." ”
"You don't need to remind you of this, our Inspector Lan has already arranged manpower, as long as he takes a step out of the detention center, there will be police officers from our section to follow him." On the side, Tang Criminal Police took a step ahead of Lan Jingguo and said.
Qin Jinjun looked at Detective Tang with a smile, his eyes didn't blink, he stared at the back of Detective Tang, and stammered and asked, "You...... What to see? ”
Lan Jingguo shook his head helplessly, stood in front of Criminal Police Officer Tang and said to Qin Jinjun: "If there is nothing to do, we will go back first, Xiao Tang has sorted out the non-resident suspects who often come and go in that residential building, and I will send it to you in your mailbox after returning to the police station." ”
Qin Jinjun raised his eyes to look at Lan Jingguo, the corner of his right mouth turned up, and said with a smile: "No need, please don't bring this fart to me next time, I don't like it." With that, she slammed the door shut.
