Chapter 289: Not a Simple Woman
"Bloodstains?" The three of them all showed unbelievable expressions.
Han Dongzhi's hands holding the water cup trembled a little, as if he was terrified when he remembered what happened last night.
"At the time, I thought I was mistaken, but what came out of the shower was red slime and a smell of blood. Just when I was in a trance, I suddenly felt some blunt object hit the back of my head, and later... He was unconscious. β
"It turns out that you were attacked while you were taking a shower." Star Swirl felt bitter and amused at the moment.
Han Dongzhi understood the meaning of her words, and scratched his head a little embarrassedly: "When I woke up, I found myself lying on the floor of the bathroom. There was no sign of rummaging through the house, and no valuables were missing, I thought... It shouldn't be a burglary. β
"Can you think of anyone who will hold a grudge against you?" Bai Xiaohan asked.
Han Dongzhi frowned and muttered for a moment: "After Tongxin's case was over, the misunderstanding that occurred in the middle was also clearly explained, there should be no grudges with others..."
Star Swirl suddenly remembered Han Dongzhi's incident about the "future lover", and her sympathy for him deepened a little.
"Then, Mr. Han will be here for the next few days." Mr. X spoke very politely and kindly, but always with a bit of cold detachment.
"Officer Bai, do you live next door?" Han Dongzhi asked.
Bai Xiaohan smiled and nodded: "If I'm not in the station, I'm patrolling around here, you can call me at any time if you have anything." β
Han Dongzhi looked at Bai Xiaohan gratefully, as if he had found a strong sense of security: "I'll leave the investigation of the truth to you." β
Immediately, his gaze fell on Mr. X's face again, and the dazzling blue pupils always made him feel that he couldn't look directly: "Then I'll be cheeky to bother Mr. Li for a few days, I'm really embarrassed." β
"Who's yelling outside and not letting people sleep?" The big cat in the bedroom rushed into the hall with an angry look on his face.
Han Dongzhi saw Lu Jingfan for the first time, and was almost blinded by his golden hair, his face was even more guilty, and he immediately said: "I'm sorry, I didn't know there were still people resting inside..."
"Don't pay attention to this guy." Bai Xiaohan dragged Lu Jingfan's arm with one hand and walked out of the door, nodded slightly to Mr. X, and closed the door.
"They areβ" Lu Jingfan asked with some curiosity.
"Don't be nervous, they're just friends." Star Swirl looked at Han Dongzhi with a smile, "Officer Bai is single." β
"People are small and big!" Han Dongzhi reached out and touched Star Swirl's smooth bun, he liked this porcelain doll-like delicate little person very much.
Mr. X glanced at him, a hint of displeasure in his calm gaze.
There was silence in the room. Star Swirl doesn't start a new topic, and Mr. X, who has always cherished words, just silently stares at the computer screen.
Han Dongzhi looked at his phone a little embarrassed, and at this time, a message jumped into his eyes.
"This young lady is so beautiful, is it your girlfriend?" Star Swirl's little head leaned in, staring at Han Dongzhi's phone screen and asked.
"No, no," Han Dongzhi waved his hand, "She's the niece of the landlord's aunt." β
"You're pretty good with the landlord," Star Swirl smiled narrowly, "and I'm willing to introduce my niece to you, which means she's very optimistic about you." β
"Is it..."Han Dongzhi looked at the photo on his phone and was suddenly stunned, wasn't that pretty face the girl he saw at night? Qin Mo clearly said that she was already engaged, why did the landlord introduce her to him?
The most embarrassing thing is that Han Dongzhi's mobile phone still has an ambiguous video of the girl and his buddies, and he didn't press the delete button after thinking about it.
"Hey, what's the fuss?" Star Swirl stretched out five fingers and shook them twice in front of Han Dongzhi.
"I think the girl in the photo is a little familiar." Han Dongzhi's answer was honest.
"Don't all the beauties of today look the same?" Star Swirl smiles with crooked eyebrows, but notices Mr. X's sunken face behind the computer screen.
"You know a lot." Han Dongzhi always felt that getting along with the little girl in front of him always had the illusion of being a peer.
Star Swirl stuck out her tongue, "It's still early, we can get some sleep." After speaking, she left Han Dongzhi and went back to the bedroom alone, lying on the door panel and listening to the movement outside.
"If you want to rest, please do your own thing, there is a blanket on the sofa." Mr. X said lightly.
Han Dongzhi nodded in agreement, and the room fell silent again.
---
The whole day was calm and uneventful until the night.
Star Swirl, who was drowsy in her sleep, suddenly felt a chill around her, and a shadow hung over her head. Nightmare again? She snapped her eyes open, and saw a man standing beside the bed.
"Han Dongzhi, why are youβ" Star Swirl suddenly noticed that his eyes were closed, and a strange smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he stood straight to the side.
Sleepwalking? Knowing that she can't wake up someone sleepwalking, Star Swirl gets out of bed and makes her way to the bedroom door.
"Do you think you'll be able to escape easily?" Behind him, Han Dongzhi suddenly spoke faintly, "It's your turn soon..."
Star Swirl shuddered at his endless words, and she closed the door softly and quickly ran to Mr. X's bedroom door.
Before the raised hand fell, the door in front of him had been opened, and Mr. X couldn't see the slightest sleepiness on his face, "What's the matter?" β
Star Swirl pointed to her bedroom and whispered, "Han Dongzhi, that guy seems to be sleepwalking and ran into my room." β
The two walked back to Star Swirl's bedroom to see that the sleepwalking guy was asleep on the pink cot.
Mr. X tilts his head slightly, motioning for Star Swirl to go to his bedroom. At this point, the offer seemed reasonable, and Star Swirl couldn't find a reason to refuse, so she pretended to be calm and walked into Mr. X's room.
"Actually, I didn't expect you to take him in for the time being." Star Swirl sat in the corner of the bed, fingers rubbing her hair, sleepy.
"Hao Rui's disappearance, I'm afraid it has something to do with him." In the dim light, the blue eyes look mysterious.
"Shouldn't the most suspicious person be Qin Mo?" Star Swirl asks.
"The Guanlin apartment is such an interesting place." A smile was fixed on his lips, and the indifference in Mr. X's expression was swept away, and a glimmer of light flashed in his eyes.
"Did you find something?" Star Swirl is also intrigued.
"Han Dongzhi's landlord should not be a simple person." His eyebrows were raised, and he said calmly, "That woman surnamed Yuan once had two husbands, all of whom died in accidents. As a result, she received a large amount of compensation from the insurance company, and later bought several houses in Guanlin District. β
