Chapter 137: Life is impermanent
Shen Siyan is prone to cold hands and feet in winter, and Lu Qian always warms her hands like this.
Feeling the heat from his fingertips, Shen Siyan turned his head with a smile.
"When I was a child, there was a real difference between me and now, and I was really fat when I was a child."
Lu Qian was a little surprised, because Shen Siyan was basically a physique that couldn't eat fat now, "You are actually still fat?" β
"yes, I was mellow when I was a kid." Shen Siyan puffed out his cheeks as he spoke.
Lu Qian looked at her playful and cute appearance, and couldn't help but reach out and pinch her cheek.
"I haven't heard of you either."
"Why am I talking about this kind of black history?" Shen Siyan was right.
Lu Qian suddenly thought of something, and showed a sly smile, "I heard that Dad was very fond of taking pictures when you were a child, and there is a big photo album at home?" β
Shen Siyan glared at him, and said indifferently: "That's all in the past, your wife is the most beautiful in the world now!" β
Lu Qian is as good as a stream, "Okay, whatever my wife says is right." β
Shen Siyan laughed out loud at his serious appearance, "Okay, let's eat, I'm so hungry." β
β¦β¦
Nothing happened for the next two days, and Christmas was coming.
Although there is still more than half a month, businesses have begun to arrange preheating. Looking at the red and green colors that can be seen everywhere on the street, Shen Siyan couldn't help but sigh.
"This Christmas is almost more lively than the Spring Festival."
Lu Qian turned around, "Yes, many people go home during the Spring Festival, and S City seems to be an empty city every Spring Festival." β
"Ah, I want to eat glutinous rice balls."
The topic turned quickly, but Lu Qian was not surprised, and said with a smile: "Okay, I'll let Auntie prepare." What flavor do you want to eat? β
"I want sesame stuffing and osmanthus candy."
"Then I'm leaving, bye-bye!"
Shen Siyan got out of the car and waved to Lu Qian. Lu Qian nodded, "I'll pick you up in the evening." β
Sun Yu had something at home and asked for leave, and Lu Qian simply became Shen Siyan's driver.
Not long after Shen Siyan arrived at the office, he had just poured himself a cup of coffee, and he hadn't had time to drink it yet. And he heard that something was wrong.
After a while, Gu Yuanyuan came to the storm, and Shen Siyan asked her, "What's wrong?" What's wrong? β
Gu Yuanyuan sighed, "Isn't it smog this morning, there was a series of car accidents due to particularly low visibility." β
"Car accidents? This is not the work of the traffic police, why are you panicking? Shen Siyan was a little puzzled.
"At the beginning, the car that collided, one person died, and then it was chased in a row. I guess it's almost time to send it over. β
As soon as these words fell, a corpse was sent over after a while.
Shen Siyan put on a mask and sent the policeman and said: "The deceased was in a car accident this morning, a bicycle collided with a small truck, and died on the spot. It's still a routine check-up. β
"Hmm."
The moment the white cloth was uncovered, Shen Siyan was stunned.
The woman lying on the dissecting table is clearly Zhang Xiaowen, how can this be! Shen Siyan had only met him two days ago, and such a living person had become a corpse......
Seeing that she was stunned, the police asked with concern: "What's wrong?" β
Shen Siyan came back to his senses and shook his head, "It's nothing." So the inspection began.
When I was in college, my teacher said, "Not only are you doing this in an industry that is horrible and incomprehensible to outsiders, but you are also likely to encounter the corpses of people you know in your later career." β
This was a strange remark, and some of the students present at the time couldn't help but laugh.
"Teacher, is it so terrible as you say?"
"I'm not alarmist, it's not unusual, once it really happens to you, remember, what you have to do is to do what you should do, in order to get up with the deceased."
The teacher didn't blame, there was something in his eyes that everyone who was not deeply involved in the world couldn't understand.
Shen Siyan has been working for five years, and she thinks she has experienced a hundred battles, but when Zhang Xiaowen's body is placed in front of her like this, she still feels a little sad and even scared.
The feeling that a living person is just gone, it's really bad. The insignificance of life seems to be vividly reflected in this way.
Shen Siyan breathed a sigh of relief, but he still had to cheer up.
During the examination, she had some doubts. The fatal injuries to the corpse were indeed caused by a car accident. But there were many old scars on the corpse, very small, all over the limbs and torso.
After doing the final stitching, Shen Siyan finished stitching her again.
With an unknown emotion, I went to Zhang Nanmu.
"Knock knock."
"Come in."
Shen Siyan pushed the door in as he said, but found that Gu Yuanyuan was also there.
"What's the matter?" Zhang Nanmu was in a good mood.
"There was something wrong with the deceased in the car accident in the morning."
Zhang Nanmu was a little puzzled, "What?" β
Gu Yuanyuan explained on the side, "There was a series of car accidents in the south of the city in the morning, and one person died. β
"The deceased was indeed killed in a car accident, but she had many other injuries on her body. I now suspect something else is going on. β
Zhang Nanmu was a little incomprehensible, "You said that the direct cause of death was caused by a car accident, why should you doubt anything else." β
Shen Siyan looked at him and was silent for a moment, "The deceased was my elementary school classmate, I met her in the hospital the day before yesterday, and I felt that something was wrong with her at that time. β
"But it's hard to know what by your instincts alone." Gu Yuanyuan was a little hesitant.
Shen Siyan also knew, she nodded, "I'll go find out the evidence, is there her address?" β
"She doesn't have a family, so she lives alone. The address is here. Gu Yuanyuan took out a note, "We have already determined her identity when the accident happened, and it was quite embarrassing at the time, she didn't even have any relatives." β
Shen Siyan took the note, looking at the address, there was a strange sense of familiarity in his heart, how could this place seem to have been seen somewhere.
When he got off work and looked for it, Shen Siyan found that this place was near Fang Xiaoqiao's home.
After Fang Xiaoqiao's sister had an accident, Shen Siyan gave her living expenses every month for her to study. Zhang Xiaowen's home is across the street from Fang Xiaoqiao's house, no wonder the address is so familiar.
Shen Siyan walked along the path, this is an old residential area, the property has long been unknown, illegal construction can be seen everywhere, and there are even vegetables planted in flower beds.
Seeing an old man basking in the sun on the side of the road, Shen Siyan stepped forward, "Uncle, do you know how to get around this place?" β
The old man had gray hair, and obviously his ears were not very good, his eyes were slightly wide open, and his voice was very loud, "Huh? What did you say? β
"I saidβyou knowβhow to get around this place?" Shen Siyan also raised his voice.
"Sister Siyan!"
Behind him came the voice of a girl's surprise.
Shen Siyan turned around and found that it was Fang Xiaoqiao riding a bicycle.
"Little Joe, are you out of school?"
Shen Siyan was a little surprised, as far as she knew, there was a late self-study in high school, and it shouldn't be so early.
"Well, it's Friday, and school ends a lot earlier than usual. How did you come? β
Fang Xiaoqiao said as he got out of the car.
"Oh, I'm here for the case, this is the address, do you recognize it? You're so hard to find here, I searched around and couldn't find it. Shen Siyan showed the note to Fang Xiaoqiao.
"Oh, just turn left at the intersection ahead. Fang Xiaoqiao really recognized it and pointed to the front.
The uncle on one side was still slow, "Huh? I still can't hear ......"
Shen Siyan had a black line on his head, and thanked the uncle with a smile, "Uncle, thank you." β
He heard this sentence clearly, "Alas, you're welcome." β
Fang Xiaoqiao was very happy to see Shen Siyan again, "Sister Siyan, I am familiar with this piece, I will go with you." β
Shen Siyan nodded, "Okay." β
So the two of them slowly walked along the uneven path together.
"How's your studies going? Stressed? Shen Siyan asked Fang Xiaoqiao sideways.
"It's ok, not very stressful. I am confident that I will be admitted to the police academy and become a police officer like you in the future. Fang Xiaoqiao's tone was firm and his expression was resolute.
Shen Siyan knew that this kid was determined, otherwise he wouldn't choose to repeat it.
smiled and touched her head, "Come on, I'm waiting for you to be my colleague." β
"Hmm!" Fang Xiaoqiao has always regarded Shen Siyan as his idol, and after receiving her encouragement, he was suddenly full of energy.
The two walked slowly, turned a corner, and arrived at a house in less than two steps.
The blue gate is a little mottled and rusted, and in many places it looks dilapidated.
"That's it."
Fang Xiaoqiao stopped at the door, and Shen Siyan looked carefully for a long time before he found the house number in the inconspicuous place at the door.
Looking at the closed door, Shen Siyan made another difficulty.
This Zhang Xiaowen lives alone, and there is no one else at home, it is impossible to expect someone to open the door, so how can she get in?
Fang Xiaoqiao saw her looking at the door in a daze, and was a little puzzled, "Why didn't you knock on the door?" β
"The deceased lives alone here, and there can't be anyone on the faΓ§ade when she dies." Shen Siyan sighed.
"Don't have a key?"
Seeing Shen Siyan shaking his head, Fang Xiaoqiao's eyes rolled and he had an idea.
"Sister, you take it for me first." Fang Xiaoqiao handed the schoolbag to Shen Siyan.
Stepping on a pile of bricks next to the wall, his body gently climbed the wall. Light as if flying, Shen Siyan was stunned when he looked at the one-person high wall.
Before she could stop it, Fang Xiaoqiao flipped over like a monkey and jumped off the wall. In a few moments, the door opened from the inside.
Revealing a smiling face, Shen Siyan remembered, "Don't do this next time, such a high wall, you bump into it again." β
"Hey, hey." Fang Xiaoqiao smiled embarrassedly.
The two men closed the door again and went inside.
The yard is not very big, but it is very tidy and planted with flowers and vegetables. Walking all the way to the house, I found that the door was unlocked, and pushed it open.
In winter, it was dark early, the house was dark, Shen Siyan wanted to turn on the lights, but found that it seemed to be a power outage.
"It's dark." Fang Xiaoqiao looked at the black hole and hesitated.
