Chapter 5 Yan is three years old and Luo is three years old
The two looked at each other. They were all amazed.
"The ticket thing. That one. It was I who stole your ticket. I shouldn't have ...... like that," Luo Yan's voice became smaller and quieter the more she spoke. She lowered her head and pulled out a few crumpled renminbi from her pocket. handed it over to Yan Junli." I really don't have that much money on me. That's all there is to it. It's the money for my meals for the past two days...... Although not enough to return the ferry ticket. But also ......"
Luo Yan pinched the few pieces of RMB. With a red face, he didn't dare to look at Yan Junli. Yan Junli sighed. Pushed Luo Yan's hand back.
"Forget it. You don't have to pay it back. I'll treat you as if I invited you."
Luo Yan raised her head suddenly. Big eyes are a little red." But, but ......"
"You'd better keep enough money to eat on the road." Yan Junli stretched out his hand and rubbed the little girl's head. Or give yourself a new outfit. You don't know how long it hasn't been changed. It's all washed and white."
Luo Yan listened to what Yan Junli said. Wow" and cried. This startled both of them. Comfort in a hurry.
"Why, what's wrong. Don't cry. Something to say."
Luo Yan wiped her tears and was a little embarrassed. I'm sorry. I didn't know you guys were such nice people...... But I stole your things......"
"Just don't do that next time. Otherwise, be careful of being caught by the police uncle." Yan Junli said helplessly. But why the hell are you stealing a ticket to get on the boat? I don't think you're an adult."
"I'm going to be eighteen soon." Luo Yan sniffed. Calm down a bit. said." I grew up in an orphanage. No father, no mother. After my eighteenth birthday. The orphanage won't take me in anymore. I won't do anything......"
"Even so. It's not an excuse for you to steal." Yang Wenbin said.
"Not really." Luo Yan immediately retorted. I have a reason why I have to get on this ship. Because there are .."
"What's there?" Yang Wenbin and Yan Junli asked in unison.
As a result, Luo Yan took back the words that came to his lips. Hum. I don't have to tell you."
Yan Junli and Yang Wenbin couldn't cry or laugh. But he could only show a helpless smile.
..............
Afternoon time. Yan Junli and Yang Wenbin finally got rid of the sticky insect Luo Yan. Wander around the huge cruise ship for a while. After all, it's a luxury cruise ship. It's not just the restaurant and lobby that are beautifully done. Swimming pool, performance hall. Even a small cinema is available.
"I think it's a waste of fare to be on this ship for just three days." Yan Junli was moved.
"Are you a child?" Yang Wenbin couldn't help but laugh.
"There's even a gift shop over there." However, Yan Junli didn't pay any attention to Yang Wenbin's ridicule. It's been completely integrated into the holiday atmosphere." Walk. Let's see."
Yan Junli couldn't help but pull up Yang Wenbin and shuttle between the rows of shops and vendors. Most of the gifts in the shop are South Island specialties. Otherwise, it's a T-shirt or mug related to the theme of the Queen. There are also some necklace jewelry. But it's not what Yan Junli needs.
"What's so nice about these little things. If you want to buy it, it's not a lot of it." Yang Wenbin couldn't understand and watched Yan Junli pick and choose among the piles of souvenirs.
"That's why I'm going to say you're too boring." Yan Junli was carrying a T-shirt with the queen's design, and his head was Taoist. It's hard to take a vacation. How can you go back without bringing something with you? Is a tour without souvenirs still called a tour? And most importantly. Go back without anything. How can you let those guys at the police station who don't do their jobs every day be jealous and itch their teeth."
Yang Wenbin burst out laughing when he heard this. In front of Yan Junli's eyes, he shook three fingers. said." Three years old. Couldn't be more."
The two were joking with each other at the time. But I heard a voice behind me.
"Souvenirs aren't worth it if you buy a t-shirt. The price is not cheap but the quality is not very good. Nor can it be stored for a long time. It's better to choose the chain of that store. Small and exquisite. It's also more cost-effective."
Yan Junli turned his head. I found that the person who spoke was actually Zhu Bairong who had seen it at the auction.
Zhu Bairong holding her Persian cat. It's completely different from the way I broke into the box before. Clear eyebrows. Whether it's dressing or talking and acting. All with an indescribable elegance and nobility.
Yan Junli was a little stunned for a while. Are you ...... Miss Zhu Bairong."
Zhu Bairong smiled and nodded.
"You know a lot about these things." Yang Wenbin put down the T-shirt in his hand. Look at Zhu Bairong.
"Hmm. Because I often take boats. The souvenirs sold on each ship are not much different. So I know all about the souvenirs sold on the cruise." Zhu Bairong smiled. Pointing to the side." This time, my family's antique jewelry was also sold on the ship. It's in the shop next door."
The two looked in the direction Zhu Bairong was pointing. Sure enough, there is a jewelry store next door. Inside sat a tall, thin man. There are heavy dark circles on his face. Playing with his phone with his head down.
"That's my uncle Zhu Zhixin. He's a very nice guy. It's just that the body is a little poor. Yesterday the boat was dizzy for a day." Zhu Bairong laughed.
Yang Wenbin and Yan Junli glanced at each other. Zhu Bairong in front of her is a beautiful and generous lady no matter how you look at it. It's exactly like the hysterical madwoman at lunch.
"That's right. You're Mr. Yan Junli." Zhu Bairong suddenly looked at Yan Junli and said. I heard your story at the auction. It's pretty remarkable."
Yan Junli hurriedly waved his hand. Nothing. Duties only. And the Dr. Yang next to me helped me a lot in solving the case. Don't look at him like this. But there's a mind more shrewd than a fox."
Zhu Bairong smiled. Then bow slightly." Things at the auction. I'm so sorry. I'm sure I'm going to bother everyone."
"No...... Presumably Miss Zhu also has her own difficulties." Yang Wenbin said. But I really don't understand. Since that's the cursed necklace. Why are you so stubborn about staying with yourself?"
Zhu Bairong showed an expression that seemed to be a wry smile. Put the Persian cat on the ground. Take out that delicate jewelry box from your bag and open it. Inside was the silver-white necklace called "Intoxicated." It is said that the ugliness of the family should not be publicized. But the two of them are certainly not gossip either. I'll tell you. That necklace is 'intoxicated'. But it was also the last piece of my father's collection. No one knows where my father got the necklace. I only know that it was during a sailing trip. After that voyage. My father was sick. Can't find any reason and justification. He passed away like that. And then. Before the father left. Once called me to my bed. Hold my hand and hand me this necklace. It's just that he didn't have time to say anything before he swallowed his breath."
Zhu Bairong gently closed the jewelry box. With a gloomy and sad expression.
"But my uncle and aunt were very taboo about that necklace. Keep saying it's something that's not clean. It should not be left at home. This time too. I wanted to auction it off behind my back. I'm not afraid of any curses or anything like that. My father must have given me this necklace before he died. I've got to figure out what's going on."
"I see......" Yang Wenbin muttered.
didn't wait for the two of them to react to Zhu Bairong's words. A loud voice could be heard in the distance.
"Ahh Found both of you. Hiding in such a place. I, Luo Yan, am not someone who can be dumped by you easily."
As soon as I heard this voice. Yang Wenbin and Yan Junli began to have headaches. Sure enough. Luo Yan jumped out from behind them. directly pounced on Yan Junli's body.
"What's wrong, what's wrong. You two are actually visiting the gift shop. Wow. A single dog is hit by 10,000 points. You two are really here for your honeymoon. You didn't even take me with you."
Yan Junli interrupted Luo Yan with a headache. Don't talk nonsense. I said can you be honest for a minute. Count me on. You haven't stopped since you finished eating."
Luo Yangang wanted to open his mouth to refute something. But at this time, I saw Zhu Bairong at a glance. The atmosphere froze for a moment. Yang Wenbin suddenly remembered at this time, and at the auction, Luo Yan seemed to be very unhappy with Zhu Bairong's actions. Finished. This little girl must not be embarrassed at such a time.
"This cat. It's beautiful." Didn't expect. Luo Yan looked straight at the cat in Zhu Bairong's arms. I've never seen such a beautiful cat. Can I touch it?"
didn't wait for Zhu Bairong to answer. Luo Yan stretched out her whole hand. At first, the cat was still lazily and let Luo Yan pet it. But suddenly I don't know what's wrong. Suddenly erected his hair and grabbed Luo Yan with a paw. If it weren't for Luo Yan's hand being collected in time. There must be an extra bloody wound on the back of the hand.
"Meow." The Persian cat was hunched over. He snorted threateningly at Luo Yan.
"Wow. Why is this cat so fierce?" Luo Yan hid backwards in fear.
"Huh... Don't do that." Zhu Bairong hurriedly hugged the cat in her arms to comfort her. I'm really sorry. She is usually very docile. I don't know what's going on today......"
"You touched someone's cat without your consent first." Yan Junli had a headache and grabbed Luo Yan's collar. I carried it to the side like a child." Take a walk. Don't cause trouble here, okay."
Luo Yan grimaced at Yan Junli as she struggled. You let go. You're not my father."
"I'm a police officer. You are a thief. So of course I'm going to take care of you."
"You have no proof."
Yang Wenbin looked at this person who was both big and young, but they were only three years old. Shook his head helplessly.
