A puff of white smoke rose in front of his eyes, and after a few seconds, the white smoke cleared, and the room returned to its previous calm.

Immediately, a sour feeling welled up in my heart, just like the night I left Old You's house.

I sat down and thought carefully about where I should start, find an exact axis, and start investigating from the northwest, north, south, and northeast.

I took out a piece of paper, drew a map of the city on it, and tossed and turned for more than an hour, but I still couldn't determine the exact location of the axis.

I got up and drank a glass of water, rubbed my sore temples, walked to the window and opened it, the night breeze calming my mind a lot.

By the way, since this book was obtained from Ma Yuan, can I use Molu Bookstore as this axis?

Since there is a big accident in all this, why not use this accident as a point to investigate in depth!

I thumped my head, and immediately returned to my desk and marked the location of the strange bookstore on the paper.

I threw down my pen and slapped it, okay, let's start here.

I calculated the days of the lunar calendar, and the day after tomorrow is relatively calm, that is, on this day, all kinds of demons are not suitable to go out and move, so relatively speaking, the time and place are favorable, and it is very conducive to determining the direction.

With the initial plan in place, I went to sleep with peace of mind.

The next morning, I went to the hotel to take care of the matter and went down to the hotel again.

Zhao Heizi is indeed quite capable, under his care, the hotel business is very good, and it has always been safe.

The phone rang suddenly, I took it out and saw that it was Xue Xiaxia calling, and I immediately felt an indescribable nervousness and uneasiness in my heart, which I had never felt before, especially when answering a girl's call.

That day, Ai Linglong confessed to me that she was going to chase me, and I was never so flustered.

"Xue Da...... Lawyer Xue, is there anything wrong? ”

"Huang Qian County, what you told me that day, I think we should go over and investigate on the spot, I have already asked for leave from the office and arranged the work, or we will leave tomorrow?"

I was taken aback by this sudden "arrangement", "No, why did Lawyer Xue suddenly decide to go to Huangqian County?" Didn't I say I'd look for some other clues? ”

Xue Xiaxia was immediately a little unhappy when she heard this, and said coldly, "What's the matter, didn't you say that Huangqian County is also worth investigating?" Since you have a clue, you shouldn't let it go easily. ”

"I didn't mean that, I just think that in fact, there is no need to run to Huangqian County, I'd better explore the other points first, thank you Lawyer Xue."

"I hope you can understand that the reason why I proposed to go over with you to investigate is also to help you solve this case, so that Wang Haitang can feel at ease as soon as possible, I am not trying to please you and invite you to travel."

I almost spurted out a mouthful of blood, this woman, her mind is so complicated, a little thing can be associated with so many problems.

I sneered, "Lawyer Xue, you misunderstood, I really didn't mean that......"

"I think it's very strange, my friend Ai Linglong asked you out and you were very happy, why did you get to me, obviously to handle the case, but you still look very embarrassed, okay, if you don't go, you won't go, it just so happens that I'm also very busy."

"Lawyer Xue......"

The other party had hung up the phone without hesitation, listening to the busy tone on the other end of the phone, I felt that it was my chaotic heartbeat at the moment.

God, offending a woman is simply offending the whole world, and my mouth is too stupid, and I will make the other party so angry that I hang up the phone in a few words.

Thinking about it carefully, I did go too far, the other party was already very busy, and he was able to put down his work and offer to go to Huangqian County with me to investigate, but I refused in every possible way, it was too unusual.

I hurriedly went to Zhao Heizi and told him that I was going to go to Huangqian County tomorrow to investigate, and asked him to take care of the hotel, including other movements, and call me as soon as there was news.

When Zhao Heizi heard this, he looked at me in surprise, "You want to go with Lawyer Xue?" ”

"yes, what's wrong? She took the initiative to call me, and I didn't dare to call to delay people's work. I smiled sheepishly.

Zhao Heizi coughed, paused before cautiously asking, "Are you two engaging in a match?" ”

I shrugged helplessly, "Why are you starting to suspect that I have an unusual relationship with her, it seems that the gossip spirit is not only for women, but also for men." ”

Zhao Heizi smiled embarrassedly, "No, I'll just ask casually, anyway, I think that Lawyer Xue seems to be quite different to you, with my previous understanding of her, she is a vigorous workaholic, and she is also very cold to people, but here with you, she seems to have put down a lot of things." ”

"Hehe, big brother, you think too much, I'll just tell you about it, take care of the company, and I'll take responsibility for you when something goes wrong." I'm kidding.

Five minutes later, I got in the car and went straight to the law office, and hurried to apologize to the female bodhisattva, because I didn't have any good fruit to eat after I provoked her, not to mention my conscience was not at ease.

Standing at the door of Xue Xiaxia's office, I pulled my collar and straightened my hairstyle, then knocked on the door and said softly, "Lawyer Xue, can I come in now?" ”

It took a few seconds for the other side of the door to remember her cold voice, "I'm busy right now, I don't have time." ”

If you are not available, you are free, this is all a woman's routine.

I cheekily pushed the door directly in, and Xue Xiaxia immediately stood up angrily and said loudly, "Why did you casually enter my office?" I said I'm busy. ”

I smiled greasyly, "I know you're there, then I'll just sit on the couch and wait for you, it's okay, you're busy." ”

Xue Xiaxia was so angry with me that her face turned pale, "You are too unreasonable, okay, you are willing to wait for me here, and then I will have a meeting, about more than an hour." ”

"It's okay, you go to a meeting, I'll sit here and play on my phone." As I spoke, I took out my mobile phone from my pocket and opened the game, and in the afterglow, Xue Xiaxia was so angry that she rolled her eyes, but her appearance at the moment was indescribably moving.

She was really not polite, packed up her things and opened the door and went out, I waited for more than an hour and 40 minutes for her to come back.

As soon as she saw that I was still there, she immediately frowned in surprise, "Why are you still here, don't you need to go about your business?" ”

I hurriedly put my phone away, stood up and said with a smile, "Since Lawyer Xue can put aside his busy work and offer to go with me to Huangqian County to investigate the case, then what else do I have to be busy with?" ”

Xue Xiaxia bit her lip and turned her face away, holding the document bag in her arms and did not speak.

I walked up to her and sincerely apologized, "I'm sorry Lawyer Xue, the reason why I refused just now is that I think that if we don't have exact clues to prove that Huangqian County is related to Huangliang County, it will be a waste of time to go there, mainly a waste of your time, and second, I feel that I can start with the clues around me first, I am a stupid person, and the meaning expressed is completely different from my heart, I am sorry to offend you." ”

It turns out that this Lawyer Xue is not hard-hearted, her brows stretched slightly, and she slowly turned her face, but her mouth continued to be hard, "If you don't want to go, forget it, I'll just talk about it casually, after all, I have nothing to do with this case." ”

"What's the matter, of course I'm very happy and moved, you can offer to accompany me, I'll leave tomorrow, I've already arranged it with the hotel."

Xue Xiaxia nodded, walked to the seat and sat down, put down the file bag, and took out a notebook, "I took a look, there are a total of two hours and 15 minutes of driving from here to Huangqian County, just drive my car over when the time comes, if it goes well, we can come back the next day, if it doesn't go well, I can stay for another day, but I have to drive back at night, because I have a case to be heard the next morning." ”

Xue Xiaxia said, pushing the notebook in her hand onto the table in front of me.

As soon as I looked at the dense records on it, a warm current rose in my heart.

This is Xue Xiaxia's notes about Huangqian County, especially detailed, driving, precautions, the size of the county, and the map marking, which are written in great detail.

It's hard to estimate how long it took her to make such a note, and I was still ...... It's a shame to think about.

It was also at this time that the sentence that Zhao Heizi said before popped up in my mind, could it be that this Xue Xiaxia is really interesting to me, and it is estimated that she is not so concerned about others.

Ahem, she is a very responsible lawyer, and she will be very responsible for other cases, not to mention how she can look down on a young man like me, who is flamboyant, unorthodox, and "unidentified".

"Lawyer Xue is really attentive, I am ashamed......"

"You take it back and take a look, now you can go, I'll come to your house to pick you up at 8 o'clock tomorrow morning."

"Oh, okay, thank you, Lawyer Xue, do I need to bring anything?"

Xue Xiaxia was stunned for a moment, raised her head to look at me, and said unceremoniously, "Ask me such a childish question, is it possible that you are a child who is going on an outing for the first time?" Or maybe you should bring a pack of diapers. ”

"Hahaha, Lawyer Xue is really humorous, I always thought you were the kind of girl who didn't smile." I laughed, but the other person remained expressionless, and in the end I felt so embarrassed that I sniffed and quickly left.

I have dealt with her a few times, and I have also concluded that this woman does not like men who talk nonsense, and she must be concise in what she says and does.

When I went back in the evening, I packed some necessary things and went to tell Wang Haitang about our departure to Huangqian County tomorrow.

Wang Haitang was shocked when she heard this, she slowly lowered her head, pinched her knees with her hands uneasily, and after a long time she asked in a deep voice, "Cousin, you went to Huangqian County, what if there are no clues?" ”

I laughed, "Isn't it normal to find no clues?" If you fail, just start somewhere else. ”
