Shu Qiming was holding a small brown bear in his hand, which was picked from the bouquet he brought to Ji Lin, and there was a worry relief doll sewn into it.

I breathed a sigh of relief: "Fortunately, as long as the worry relief doll is still there, Ji Lin shouldn't dare to really do anything to Jiang Zhen." ”

"No, you can't let Jiang Zhen stay in Ji Lin's hands for too long, that's a madman, her thinking can't be considered by ordinary people." Shu Qiming clenched the little brown bear tightly, his brows furrowed, "What should we do next?" ”

I see that he is trying to suppress his emotions, and I am very worried, now every minute and every second is torment for him, and the breath he holds in his heart will continue to gather, reaching a zero point, and it will explode in an instant.

Shu Qiming, who was sent to the door, Ji Lin didn't want it, but instead captured Jiang Qiming, did she want to use Jiang Qi to completely tame Shu Qiming, or did she have some other purpose?

If it was to tame Shu Qiming, there would definitely be a phone call.

"I've already informed my friend, I'll have to wait a while." I said.

Shu Qiming asked, "How long do you have to wait?" ”

"Half an hour." I don't dare to say too long, "During this period, let's analyze Ji Lin's purpose and dynamics, once this point in time passes, whether my friend comes or not, let's ......"

"I can't wait, Bai Li, I can't wait for a moment, half an hour is enough for Ji Lin to do anything to Jiang Zhen, Jiang Zhen is my life, I will never allow her to have an accident." Shu Qiming denied me.

I glanced at the sun outside the window, shook my head, and said, "No, Jiang Zhen won't have an accident." ”

"Where did Ji Lin get this anxiety doll, haven't you thought about it?"

"After she resigned, in the years when she disappeared, who knows what happened, she hated me in her heart, and she went somewhere to ask this worry doll to deal with me." Shu Qiming analyzed.

I shook my head: "You forget, Ji Lin got married, the years she disappeared, she met her current husband, they returned to Jiangcheng three and a half years ago and held a wedding, that is, at that time, Ji Lin and Jiang Zhen's best friend relationship was rebuilt." ”

"You mean, Ji Lin's husband ......" Shu Qiming's eyes widened suddenly, and he stopped talking.

I nodded: "My friend helped me check, Ji Lin's current husband Tang Siqiang's perfume company, the predecessor was not clean, Ji Lin met him, the two hit it off, and they made a deal between them." ”

"Tang Siqiang needs a nominal wife, and can give birth to children for him without hindering his private emotional life, why did Ji Lin agree to him, it is likely that Tang Siqiang or the people around him know strange arts, and can help Ji Lin control Jiang Zhen to achieve some of her goals."

Shu Qiming also felt that it made sense when he heard me say this, he touched his chin thoughtfully, and I continued: "Since you know the strange arts, then, even if you want to do something, it depends on the time and place, it is now more than eleven o'clock at noon, and in the next few hours, it is the time of the day when the yang energy is at its peak, and I will not use them to do it, so I said that Jiang Zhen is safe at the moment." ”

My analysis persuaded Shu Qiming, he slowly sat on the edge of the bed, holding the little brown bear in his hand, thoughtfully, and asked me for a while: "Then we can't wait like this, in your opinion, Ji Lin took Jiang Zhen away, where will she take her?" ”

"Ji Lin is very smart, and she must have been prepared a long time ago, she can't take Jiang Zhen away by herself without knowing it, she has helpers, where did she hire these helpers, and directly determine her next direction."

It's hard for me to determine the specific address: "In my opinion, it is possible for Ji Lin to take Jiang Zhen to the place where she lives now, and it is possible to join Tang Siqiang......"

Shu Qiming said hatefully: "Ji Lin is too cunning, Jiang Zhen is too simple, Ji Lin has been married for more than three years, and she has never revealed to us where her home is, every time we meet, including her and Tang Siqiang's wedding, it is all outside, and the major hotels and restaurants are all our footprints, and now it seems that Ji Lin has long been on guard against us." ”

I was silent and didn't speak, and I felt a little blamed in my heart, when Yunshuang checked Tang Siqiang before, she must have been able to find out where Ji Lin and Tang Siqiang's real estate was, but at that time I didn't have the consciousness to ask clearly, and now it's stumped for us.

I took out my phone, opened it and took a look, it was almost twelve o'clock, at this point in time, Yunshuang and they shouldn't have done anything, right?

After thinking about it, I still found Yunshuang's phone number and dialed it, but it turned out that the phone had been turned off.

I rubbed my temples, extremely irritable, why hasn't Yunlu come yet?

"Actually...... Actually, I have an idea. Shu Qiming suddenly said, "All along, Ji Lin's behavior towards me makes me feel that she has intentions for me, but now that I think about it, she may not have taken a fancy to me from the beginning." ”

I looked back at Shu Qiming suddenly, he lowered his head, crossed his hands on his legs, and bent his back slightly, without waiting for me to make a statement, he said to himself: "Bai Li, what kind of woman do you think would be willing to marry?" ”

"I think I'm a person who doesn't expect anything from love, right?" I guessed.

"No, there's another possibility." Shu Qiming raised his eyes and looked at me and said, "Take what you need." ”

"It's not just Tang Siqiang who needs Ji Lin to help him cover, but also Ji Lin needs Tang Siqiang's shield, so that she can get close to Jiang Ji in a grand manner for a lifetime."

"And in this long life, everything she has spared no effort to do is to secretly sabotage the relationship between me and Jiang Zhen, her goal has always been very firm, it is Jiang Zhen, not me."

Shu Qiming's statement was shocking, and it sounded difficult to accept at first glance, but when you taste it carefully, you will feel that it is very likely.

A person will not want his own life at a critical moment, but also to save the other party, I think this kind of relationship, in addition to love, close relatives will also do, but for the other party to give up Qingbei......

Jiangcheng is only a few hours away from Kyoto by high-speed rail, and you can talk to the phone and video every day, why did Ji Lin give up Qingbei and stay in Jiangcheng with Jiang Zhen?

Can a simple girlfriend really do this?

I just thought, if Gu Xiaoxiao was admitted to Qingbei, and I could only stay in Jiangcheng, Gu Xiaoxiao would definitely take the admission letter from Qingbei and slap it in my face, and said to me: "Ah Li, look at how good the old lady is, obediently stay in Jiangcheng, and wait for the old lady to become famous, and take your chicken dog to heaven!" ”

The gap is so big, so big that it feels weird.

Shu Qiming sighed and said: "Jiang Zhen is a well-behaved person, she is relatively soft, it is easy to stimulate the desire of others to protect, if you fall in love with her, you will want to circle her, and she will always belong to me alone, she is ignorant and a little heartless, so she doesn't think too much, but it is precisely because she doesn't think too much that she will continue to indulge Ji Lin." ”

If it is really Shu Qiming's guess, then ......

I turned to Shu Qiming and said, "Mr. Shu, let's not wait, I want to go to Sister Jiang's hometown." ”

Shu Qiming looked at me puzzled and said, "Her hometown is about to be demolished, and the walls are in ruins, what are you doing running around at this time?" ”

"It's not running around." I analyzed, "If it is as you said, then, I guess that Ji Lin will neither move Jiang Zhen back to her residence, nor go to Tang Siqiang, she will take Jiang Zhen back to the place where they once met, where they have lived together for many years, and they are inseparable, and Jiang Zhen at that time belonged to Ji Lin alone. ”

Shu Qiming was still digesting my words, so I asked him: "If I guessed correctly, Ji Lin's original family should be very bad." ”

"Yes, Ji Lin is not as lucky as Jiang Zhen, Ji Lin's parents died early, she was raised by her grandparents, her grandfather was an alcoholic, he beat people when he was drunk, and blinded her grandmother in one eye, and then Ji Lin was a little older, he even beat Ji Lin together, I heard Jiang Zhen say that Ji Lin grew up until she was 11 years old, she was short, and her whole body was almost intact for a day."

"When Ji Lin was 11 years old, her grandfather accidentally killed her grandmother, realized that she had caused a disaster, committed suicide, and the lonely Ji Lin was sent to an orphanage, only Jiang Zhen went to see her whenever he had time, and the emotional foundation of the two was laid at that time."

"That's right." I breathed a sigh of relief, "My guess should be right, Jiang Zhen is all to Ji Lin, deep in her feelings, she has an unimaginable dependence on Jiang Zhen, she does not allow Jiang Zhen's attention to her to be shared with others, this has nothing to do with love, it is purely possessive." ”

After I finished speaking, Shu Qiming immediately nodded: "Yes, that's it, let's go, let's go to Jiang Qi's hometown now." ”

We brought our things, Shu Qiming drove, and galloped all the way.

On the way, while Shu Qiming was driving, he kept talking to me about what Jiang Zhen had told him, about Jiang Zhen and Ji Lin, I listened carefully, and carefully analyzed from these things, if I were Ji Lin, where would Jiang Zhen go.

The old house of the Jiang family? Orphanage? Where did they meet?

But after each point came out, it would soon be overturned by me, and in the end I still felt that the place where they met was closer to what we thought.

The place where Jiang Zhen and Ji Lin met was the primary school where they were together, but according to Shu Qiming, the primary school had already been dilapidated, and it seemed to have been planned a few years ago.

But we decided to go over there anyway.

After driving for about two hours, the car entered a village.

The village is no longer inhabited, houses are collapsing, and hardly a single one is good.

Jiang Zhen's house is at the east end of the village, with three large tiled houses and a big yard, and the outline can still be seen now, while Ji Lin's house is at the south end, which should be a mound of earth, which has long been a ruin, and the weeds are half a person high.

The primary school, 500 meters behind the village, is very simple, with only two rows of tiled houses, on which you can vaguely see some slogans, but they are not school slogans, but more like the propaganda slogans of the village committee.

Shu Qiming told me: "This primary school did not accept students many years ago, and it was idle for a few years, but then it was repaired, and the village committee moved in.

Shu Qiming and I walked in on foot and looked around the area several times, but we didn't see a single figure.

Ji Lin didn't take Jiang Zhen back to the place where they first met!

Our speculation was wrong.

Every time the search was fruitless, it would exacerbate the psychological pressure on me and Shu Qiming, and we squatted on the edge of the grass and re-analyzed.

At that time, it was already about three o'clock in the afternoon, the sun set early in autumn, and the sunlight was not so strong.

And staying with a paranoid person like Ji Lin, Jiang Zhen is very dangerous.

Now it is certain that they are not in the place where they first met, that is, in the place that is considered a major turning point in Ji Lin's life.

There are several major turning points in Ji Lin's life:

One: The place where her grandparents had an accident, obviously this can be ruled out immediately.

Two: The orphanage, which is her other home, and that orphanage was originally in the town, and it is difficult to say whether it is still or not.

Three: The university where she used to work, where her life has a position, but there she was forced to separate from Jiang Zhen, but according to our previous speculation, such a sad place does not seem to meet Ji Lin's selection criteria.

"So, let's go to the orphanage now?" Shu Qiming decided.

The car started again, and when we arrived in town, we inquired around and learned that the orphanage had ceased to exist more than ten years ago, but the former director of the orphanage had opened a charity hall in his own home, and we could go and ask.

More than ten minutes later, we met the kind old woman, whose house had a large courtyard in the town, and in the courtyard there were two or three rows of tiled houses, and each room was more or less inhabited by orphans, and she took good care of them.

We asked the dean if Ji Lin had come back to visit her, and she shook her head and said, "Ji Lin has never come back since she was admitted to college, and I don't know if she is doing well after so many years." ”

The dean is old, and when she talks about the children she once took care of, she gushes endlessly, and there are always endless stories to recall: "Ji Lin, this child, when he came to the orphanage, was already very old, 11 years old, and he already remembered, so there are many things hidden in his heart. ”

"She actually rejects the orphanage from the bottom of her heart, she feels that she doesn't belong here, but fortunately, she is very promising, through her own efforts, she was admitted to the ideal university, and she broke away from here, and I am also happy for her."

"Dean, was there anything wrong with Ji Lin's years in the orphanage? As I understand it, her personality seems to be somewhat paranoid. I asked.

The dean's face suddenly changed, and he said worriedly: "Is something wrong with this kid Ji Lin?" ”

"No, don't worry, we are her colleagues, just a routine inspection." Shu Qiming said.

The dean said that he understood: "Ji Lin's character is indeed paranoid, but it is also very emotional, she often runs back to the village by herself, goes to the grave to worship her grandparents, she went to the county seat for the high school entrance examination, every time she comes back from vacation, she can't move to go to the junior high school in the town to see, walk around the middle school a few laps......

Shu Qiming and I glanced at each other, chatted with the dean for a few words, and then hurriedly ended, preparing to drive to the middle school in the town.

A few minutes away, we found the middle school, the old campus, no longer in use, now it seems to be the town's toy factory in it, guarded by a doorman.

Shu Qiming drove the car around the periphery of the middle school, and didn't see any problems, and then he parked the car outside a noodle restaurant and said to me: "It's getting dark, we didn't eat at noon, let's eat a bowl of noodles first, we have thought of all the possibilities, if I were Ji Lin, I would definitely not tie Jiang Zhen to swagger around the town, she is probably waiting for dark, right?" ”

"Yes, I think so too, so let's wait." I chimed in.

Shu Qiming parked the car a little farther away, afraid of startling the snake, and then the two of us ordered food in the noodle restaurant near the middle school and ate slowly.

I fiddled with my phone while eating, thinking that it had been so long, Yunlu should have arrived at the address I gave her before, she didn't find me, she would definitely call me and ask me again, even if she didn't call, she should be able to track me down here, why hasn't she come yet?

Could it be that when I called Yunlu, she wasn't in Jiangcheng at all?

Did she leave the city too?

I feel very uneasy, if Ji Lin teamed up with Tang Siqiang, I and Shu Qiming would not be able to fight Ji Lin at all.

What's more, Ji Lin still has Jiang Zhen in his hands.

I even asked Shu Qiming if he wanted to call the police, Shu Qiming immediately shook his head, and he said no.

"I understand Ji Lin's psychology, if you can't get it, you will be destroyed, we can't force her to be in a hurry, let's take one step at a time." Shu Qiming's mood is very low, and I think he seems to have a mentality of seeing death as home.

……

The town is not prosperous, unlike the center of Jiangcheng, which is still brightly lit in the middle of the night, and around nine o'clock in the evening, there is almost no one on the streets, the town middle school is dark, and the workers have gone home.

After Shu Qiming and I left the noodle shop, we have been hiding across the road from the middle school, always paying attention to the movement over there.

Everything was peaceful.

I was not sure: "What if our search is in the wrong direction?" At that time, Ji Lin may have left Jiangcheng with Jiang Zhen. ”

"If that's really the case, we won't be able to chase it even too late, but I believe in what you said in my heart, wait a little longer, after tonight, if we don't save Jiang Zhen, from tomorrow, I will look for Ji Lin all over the world for revenge."

Shu Qiming said very hard, every word was squeezed out of between his teeth, I sighed, I was really afraid that he would go that far, they still have two children!

The feelings in this world are strange, love to the depths is as dangerous as hating to the depths, and tragedy is often born in response to emotions.

Just as I was sighing, suddenly a bright light turned from the side of the school wall, and Shu Qiming and I held our breath and stared at the bright light tightly.

But after seeing the people clearly, we were disappointed.

It was a thin, middle-aged man, dressed in a security uniform, and we had seen him during the day, and he was the doorman guarding the guard booth at the entrance of the middle school.

This point is still circling the school, this is a patrol, right? There is nothing wrong with the duty.

But when my eyes turned to the things he was carrying, his face suddenly changed, and Shu Qiming, who was beside him, muttered in a low voice: "What age is this, it's really strange to come out on patrol without a flashlight, and actually carry a lantern." ”

"Something is wrong." I was sure, "Even if it's a lantern, it should be red or something, who uses a white lantern for no reason?" ”

As soon as I said this, Shu Qiming was about to go out, and I held him down: "What are you doing?" ”

"Arrest this doorman, and ask him if you want to know?" Shu Qiming said.

I shook my head: "You think too simply, this doorman won't do this kind of thing for no reason, either he himself is in a gang with Ji Lin, or, he is controlled, let's not be impulsive, wait and see." ”

As he spoke, the doorman had already turned around the courtyard wall on the other side and left.

The surroundings were calm again, and after waiting for a few minutes, the bright light came on again, and the doorman walked around the courtyard wall with a white lantern as usual, but this time the speed was noticeably faster than the last time.

Shu Qiming was a little impatient: "What is he doing?" How many laps do you have to walk around the courtyard wall? ”

"Six laps." I replied.

Shu Qiming looked at me puzzled, but I didn't explain immediately, but stared at the corner of the courtyard wall on the left, and sure enough, after a while, the doorman walked out from that side again, and the speed was very fast.

After waiting for a few minutes, I looked at the corner of the courtyard wall on the right, and then the doorman came back around.

Shu Qiming also noticed the difference this time, and immediately reminded me: "You see, he is going in the opposite direction this time. ”

"Yes, three times counterclockwise, three times clockwise, this is a kind of stepping point, in the technical terminology of our industry, it is called Dingacupoint, and the last place where he stops is the position that the person who controls him is looking for." As I spoke, my eyes kept on the doorman, and then explained to Shu Qiming, "It's going to be the last circle soon, if the point where he pauses is not in a place where we can see it, then I'll be left and right, let's outflank the past, remember not to make a move, just find the place where the doorman stopped, and there will be a situation soon." ”

Shu Qiming nodded immediately, although we haven't seen anything yet, but at least we can be sure that the location that Ji Lin finally chose was around this middle school, which made our hearts that we had been carrying for a day finally let go.

Luckily, the janitor made the sixth turn and stopped, right in the middle of the backyard wall, which was clearly visible from our vantage point.

He stood there motionless as if he had been frozen, carrying a white lantern and facing the courtyard wall, and if someone passed by at this time, he would probably be scared to death.

Shu Qiming's spirit and I were concentrated to the peak, and we didn't dare to come out, waiting for what happened next.

But what we didn't expect was that no one came, but there was a muffled sound from the side of the courtyard wall, as if something had hit the wall.

Shu Qiming asked me what was going on, I frowned, and said, "The point they want to set should be just under the courtyard wall." ”

"In other words, Ji Lin's people are in the school now." Shu Qiming didn't wait for me to answer, he rushed out with an arrow step, I reached out and wanted to grab him, it was too late, I could only pull my legs and want to follow, but I was coldly surrounded by an arm stretched out behind me and pulled me back.
