Chapter 68: Interlude
The passion fruit is still the same sticky, and as soon as I hear a sound at the door, it is far away, and it has already rushed over. Xin Shuitong had long been used to it, hiding behind Si Xiuwen, waiting for him to be knocked down.
Who would have expected that as soon as Passion Fruit saw the person standing in the middle of the door, it suddenly stopped the car, stopped, and fell directly to the ground with his face.
"This ......" Xin Shuitong bit her lip.
Is Si Xiuwen so terrible?
To be able to scare passion fruit like this, I'd rather brake with my face than pounce on it. So, usually this golden retriever picks soft persimmons and pinchs?
Her face darkened at the thought of this.
"If it keeps pounced, I'm sure I'll be able to dodge." Seeing the change in her expression, Si Xiuwen explained.
Passion fruit used to be very sticky to him, and he pounced on him every time he came back. But it's fast, he's fast, and he's dodging it every time. The harder the passion fruit pounces, the worse it falls. Over time, as soon as it found that the person outside the door was Si Xiuwen, it stopped by itself.
"Okay." Xin Shuitong was not in a high mood, but he just answered, and went back to the sofa by himself.
The maid on the side stepped forward and helped her turn on the TV.
The TV was playing the news, and the maid turned it into a music channel so that she could rest.
Then, Xin Shuitong had already heard the news in the original channel, thought about it, and ordered: "Transfer back to the station just now." ”
As soon as the words fell, Si Xiuwen sat down next to her.
The maid hurriedly turned it back and placed the remote control on a small table beside her.
"Last night, there was a sudden explosion by the Linjiang River, and when the crowd found out, the police were already there...... "The host's voice was serious.
Xin Shuitong didn't look at the screen, just listened to the sound inside.
The news mentions the kidnapping, but there is no final shooting. At the mention of the victim, she lifted her eyelids and glanced at the screen.
Jin Kexin was mosaiced, and she, Xin Haotian and others did not appear in the video.
Although she had experienced the explosion herself, it was only when she saw the video that she really realized the danger at that time. If it weren't for Xin Haotian kicking away in time......
The consequences are unimaginable.
The host was still talking, and he also told the identity of the kidnapper, which was basically the same as what Si Xiuwen said.
There is no mention of the other real culprit.
The news only showed the better side. However, Xin Shuitong can also understand that the country is fighting against blackness, and there is such a thing in Lin City, but the police can't do anything, and this spread is not good for the city's ranking. The truth must be concealed from above.
"You arranged it?" She spoke suddenly.
Last night, the strange man's target was actually her. And Si Xiuwen helped block it, it stands to reason that there shouldn't be no information in the video. But the news was completely unmentioned.
"Go with the flow." Si Xiuwen replied.
Xin Shuitong nodded, understanding what he meant. The above didn't want the masses to be frightened by a criminal and hide the facts, but Si Xiuwen didn't want to expose his existence.
"Alright, stop looking, let's go get something to eat." Si Xiuwen said, ignoring her protests, and directly picked her up and took her to the restaurant.
The maid had already arranged the meal, which was simple, but nutritionally balanced.
Xin Shuitong didn't have much appetite, the man ran away, and her heart seemed to be pressed heavily and she couldn't breathe.
Passion fruit rubbed at her feet, her long tail wagging vigorously, trying to play with her.
Xin Shuitong picked it up, put it on a chair next to him, and asked someone to bring some dog food, put it in front of Passion Fruit, and let it eat with them.
"Mom is back, will she take it away?" She asked.
Si Xiuwen nodded, "Reluctant?" ”
Xin Shuitong sighed, she was afraid of dogs, and she didn't get along with passion fruit for a few days, but she always felt that there was still a smell at home. The thought of passion fruit leaving, it is inevitable that my heart will be lost.
"If you don't want it to go, just tell your mom." Si Xiuwen reached out and flicked her forehead.
The woman looked sullen, and he was uncomfortable looking at it.
"No need." Why should she rob people of their favors? Si Xiuwen is not around, and Aunt Song regards passion fruit as a little young master, which is also a kind of spiritual sustenance.
"Let's eat." Si Xiuwen didn't say much on this topic.
The passion fruit had already started, and the tail on the chair had not stopped, swaying all the time, eating dog food from time to time, and drinking a few sips of water from another plate every now and then.
"When you're done eating, you go to rest." Si Xiuwen said.
Xin Shuitong glanced at him, his eyes were a little complaining, and he said slowly: "I want to go to the police station to see." ”
Although she didn't catch the real culprit last night, she also wanted to go over and ask what the situation was. When the police were chasing the real murderer, she only cared about Si Xiuwen and didn't make much observation.
She needed to know more before she could construct a portrait of that man in her mind.
"Don't meddle in this matter anymore." Si Xiuwen's tone was unquestionable.
His attitude was too tough, Xin Shuitong was a little annoyed, and he didn't speak for a while.
Si Xiuwen saw her dissatisfaction, reached out and touched her head, "Don't worry, I won't let you suffer in vain." ”
"Si Xiuwen." Xin Shuitong spoke, her voice serious, "I know you can help me, but I can't wait for you to help as a matter of course." Our relationship is one of cooperation, and I don't want to depend on you for everything. This is my business, and I have the right to know. The most important thing is that this has affected Kexin, and I must give her an explanation. ”
He told her to act as if nothing had happened, to eat and drink well at home, and she really couldn't do it.
Si Xiuwen was silent. After a long time, he nodded, "Okay, you can go." ”
No matter how much effort he tried, she couldn't seem to see it. Speaking of which, I want to clear up the relationship between the two.
The man suddenly sneered.
Xin Shuitong could feel the temperature around her drop, and she could also sense that the man's mood was not beautiful. But she could only pretend not to know, holding chopsticks and pulling the rice for a while.
Soon, the food on the table was swept away by the two.
Because of this little episode, there is a strange atmosphere between them.
Xin Shuitong returned to the room in silence, and Si Xiuwen didn't say a word, walked straight to the bathroom, and put water in the bathtub.
Hearing the sound of running water inside, Xin Shuitong sat on the edge of the bed for a while, and was just about to lie down when he saw Si Xiuwen come out.
"Go take a shower." He said.
He didn't even look at her and went straight out.
Xin Shuitong sighed deeply and got up. She also has backache all over her body now, and it is naturally good to be able to take a bath.
