Chapter XVIII: Important Doubts

Han Yu reacted quickly this time, and when he saw Zhou Erya stretching out his hand, he pretended not to see anything, stepped forward quickly, and resolutely did not open the distance between the light bulbs.

β€œβ€¦β€¦ You let go. Murong quickly adjusted his expression and said in a low voice.

"Don't run around, it's going to be crowded, so keep up." Zhou Erya let go of her hand, in a very gentlemanly posture, not at all like a disciple who deliberately took advantage of other girls.

Murong glared at him, with a hint of annoyance, but also with a hint of curiosity: "What are you worried about me?" ”

"I just don't want any more waves before this case is over." When Zhou Erya saw the group of students marching, she thought of her mother.

Arrested and imprisoned for demonstrations, life takes a turn for the worse – young people are always passionate and impulsive, but not everyone can afford such a change.

"Moreover, I don't want Ling Zun to be sad and think that I didn't protect you well." Zhou Erya added, "After all, you are still my fiancΓ©e." ”

The rest of his words were not spoken.

He would not let Murong participate in such a demonstration, but if Zhou Dujun knew that his future daughter-in-law was such a person, I don't know how he would feel.

Supposed to be fun, right? Just like fate, the women he met were all flowing with boiling blood.

"I'm not going to bother you." Murong felt that he was being despised by him, and his face was a little displeased, but he didn't say anything, just sighed deeply at Remnant Yang, as if talking to himself, "I know you're not a person who likes trouble. ”

This society is like roasting on a stove, boiling everywhere, and there are violent contradictions everywhere - which is why there are always so many bizarre cases.

"I hope that one day, my country will rise and grow, and there will not be the suffering of today's displacement."

Murong followed the group of students, but she also knew how weak her personal power was in this great era.

The only thing we can do is to be able to do our part for this dark world and add a little more light.

When the procession was far away, Han Yu stopped, turned his head and saw that Zhou Erya and Murong seemed to have their own thoughts, and walked towards this side in the sunset.

After crossing the street and passing through two intersections, I arrived at the patrol room, and I heard that Zhou Gongzi came in person, and Inspector Huang of the patrol room waited at the door early.

In the previous case, the Eryu Detective Agency also dealt with the patrol room, and Inspector Huang had a few interviews from afar. It's just that Zhou Erya has never paid much attention to the police, and rarely comes here in person, so he naturally didn't have the opportunity to come up and pat himself.

This time, Zhou Erya offered to see the corpse, and they must serve this rumored very picky and eccentric Overseer well.

"Mr. Zhou, Mr. Han, please come in!"

Inspector Huang looked flattering.

He wouldn't be so polite to other detectives.

He looked at the petite girl behind him again, and saw that she was wearing a women's college skirt, and she looked very clear.

Inspector Huang's eyes rolled, most of the students of the women's university were either rich or noble, although this girl did not have any ornaments on her body, her demeanor was stretched, and her eyes were soft and not afraid.

He immediately greeted Murong politely: "This young lady, please come in too, you don't know what to call it yet?" ”

"Murong." Murong replied simply.

She rarely takes the initiative to say things that others don't ask, and she cherishes Inspector Huang like gold.

At this time, Zhou Erya stood at the door and did not move, only nodded to Han Yu: "You go in and have a look, I'll walk here." ”

After saying that, he turned around and didn't intend to enter the gate of the patrol room.

Inspector Huang pounced, smiling, not knowing what to say, and the atmosphere became awkward.

"You're not going in?"

Han Yu was a little surprised and asked in a low voice.

Obviously he asked to see the corpse, why didn't he go in again?

Zhou Erya said lightly: "Suddenly my stomach is upset, I will wait for you outside." ”

Stop!

Han Yu's eyes widened, this is obviously an excuse for you to suddenly not want to go in to see the corpse, what kind of stuff.

He leaned into Zhou Erya's ear and asked in a low voice again, "Didn't you say that looking at the corpse can more intuitively understand the case?" ”

Zhou Erya shrugged: "That's right, but when I get here, I change my attention again, wouldn't it be good for you and Murong to go and see on my behalf?" ”

When I got to the door, I didn't want to go in, this was really Zhou Erya's willful style.

Murong suddenly spoke: "So, you have to admit that you have a habit of cleanliness." ”

Zhou Erya looked at her and laughed out loud: "You are really a person who holds grudges." ”

They had a few arguments about "cleanliness" before, and this little girl hasn't forgotten it, so she turned it out when she got the chance, which was really interesting.

"Each other, each other." Murong doesn't think that he is a really generous gentleman, and before touching the interests of both parties, being a gentleman is very simple.

Han Yu was afraid that they would quarrel again, and he didn't have a problem with Zhou Erya, so he couldn't drag him in to see the corpse, right?

He could only walk into the patrol room with Murong under Inspector Huang's disappointed gaze, and the two of them, accompanied by a small policeman, went to the morgue to check Bai Fei's body.

Bai Fei's body is well preserved, but it will probably be notified tomorrow for the family to take it back for burial, after all, the preservation means of the patrol house are limited, and although ice cubes are placed in the basement, it is difficult to keep it for a long time.

As soon as Han Yu entered the door, he felt a cold and rotten aura rushing to his face.

- It's no wonder that Zhou Erya is reluctant to come in, with his picky personality, even if he comes in, smelling the smell, he may turn around and leave on the spot.

Han Yu sighed, and when he saw Murong walking forward with a slightly sad expression, he hurriedly followed.

He admired Murong more and more - although she was a young girl, she was even more powerful than ordinary men in terms of personality and courage.

No matter what, Bai Fei is her friend, and she can endure her grief and come to see the corpse again, and her psychological quality is very strong.

If Murong was the murderer, then this psychological quality would be even more admired by Han Yu.

The little policeman covered his nose and shook his head at Murong and said: "Actually, there is nothing special, even if you roll down the stairs and break your neck, the squeezing impact and abrasions on your body can be correct, and there are no other signs of being attacked." ”

In the eyes of the police, this is a simple fall incident, if it weren't for the fact that it happened in a sensitive place like the Women's University and the identity of the star of the Bai Fei Theater Troupe, the case might have been closed a long time ago.

But Han Yu suddenly found that there was a deep sharp scratch on Bai Fei's bare shoulder, and he couldn't help but point and ask, "What's going on with this wound?" ”

"Oh, there's a fence on the other side of the stairs, it's broken." The little policeman didn't want to stay here longer, although Bai Fei was a beautiful girl before her death, but after her death, no one wanted to take a second look at this green and hideous corpse.

Han Yu glanced at Murong, who nodded at him and said with some sadness: "I also saw it at that time, and there were also blood stains on the fence. ”

Han Yu recalled the scene, there was a lot of blood at that time, and there were indeed blood stains on the fence.

There are no other doubts, and the wounds are indeed abrasions and falls, and there are some places where Han Yu is embarrassed to look at them, so Murong described them to him on the side.

After some inquiry, it was almost the same as the record at the time, and there were no discrepancies. 、

After Han Yu and Murong came out, they didn't see Zhou Erya.

asked Inspector Huang, it turned out that he went to the dim sum shop opposite.

"Alas! He was probably hungry, so he went to eat first. Han Yu looked at Murong and felt that Zhou Erya was very rude, if she really wanted to marry Zhou Erya, it would seem to have hurt her.

"I should go back too, see you tomorrow." Murong glanced at her watch, it was not early, although she had asked for leave, but the school had a curfew time at night, and she still wanted to go to see An Lin before returning to school.

- An Lin's hospital is not far from here.

"Okay then, if there's anything, you call the mansion and keep in touch." Han Yu said goodbye to her at the door of the patrol room.

Zhou Erya was sitting in the dim sum shop and eating slowly.

The dim sum shop with too simple decoration was very inconsistent with his noble temperament, and Han Yu felt for the first time what it meant to be truly puffy and radiant - because Zhou Erya was sitting in it, no matter how simple the place was, it looked gorgeous and elegant.

"Why did you let Murong go?" Zhou Erya saw Han Yu walking in alone and asked.

"She said she was going back, and you wouldn't send her, let her come in to see you eat alone, how bad!" Han Yu was also hungry and thirsty, picked up the tea on Zhou Erya's table, raised his head, gurgled like a cow, and drank it all.

Zhou Erya frowned and sighed: "How do you know that I won't send her?" ”

"Are you the kind of person who would send girls back to school?" Han Yu wiped his mouth and asked rhetorically.

"How do you know I'm not like that?" Zhou Erya also asked rhetorically.

Han Yu was stunned, looked at Zhou Erya carefully, and was disappointed to find that he didn't actually know the person in front of him.

The only thing I know is that the food on this table is Zhou Erya's life, don't rob him of his food.

"Give me a Yangchun noodle." Han Yu shouted to the shopkeeper, sat next to Zhou Erya, and asked depressedly, "Then what is your attitude towards Miss Murong?" Like or dislike? To get out of the marriage or not to get out of the marriage? ”

"Murong is a very interesting person, more interesting than most people, but my business has nothing to do with you, so don't worry about me." Zhou Erya knew that he was hungry, thought about it, and was a little reluctant to push a crab roe xiaolongbao in front of him in front of Han Yu.

"You can eat it yourself, I ordered noodles, and I'll be here right away."

Han Yu knew that Zhou Erya didn't like others to touch the things on his plate the most, although out of the friendship between the two, he might share him a little, but he still didn't have to be greedy for this bite, which made the eldest young master feel bad.

And he was deeply hurt by Zhou Erya's sentence "My business has nothing to do with you, don't bother for me".

He likes to be nosy, but he cares about Zhou Erya's affairs from the bottom of his heart, and hopes that he can be happy.

Han Yu thought that the two had been together for so long, at least close friends, but he didn't expect that he still couldn't knock on Zhou Erya's indifferent heart, and he couldn't enter his world at all.

He decided not to ask Zhou Erya about his emotional world anymore, he can do whatever he likes, and he can't even manage Zhou Overseer, how can he Han Yu have the ability to interfere?

"Did you find anything new when you went to the patrol room?" Zhou Erya saw Han Yu's awkward and angry expression, knowing his thoughts, and sighed in his heart.

After all, others can't control their own path, and the people around them are just passers-by, even if they are husband and wife, they may not be able to accompany each other for a lifetime.

Han Yu's spring noodles came up, hot, sprinkled with green onions - Zhou Erya would never eat green onions.

He said while eating: "There is nothing abnormal about the corpse, there is a sharp wound, but it is caused by the fence on the opposite side of the stairs, and Murong and I don't see anything wrong......

"Sharps wounds? Fence across the stairs? ”

Zhou Erya frowned slightly, as if she was recalling, and finally nodded seriously: "You have found an important suspicion!" ”

What's the matter?

Han Yu couldn't keep up with Zhou Erya's rhythm, so he also recalled it, and asked rhetorically: "I thought about it for a while, that section of the staircase aisle is very narrow, and if you fall down the stairs, it is easy to rub the tip of the fence, and it is not strange to be injured at all, what do you think is wrong?" ”

He simulated in his mind the process of Bai Fei falling, rolling down the stairs and causing abrasions, and there was no accident.

"You also know that the staircase is very narrow." Zhou Erya smiled and asked, "Since it's so narrow, why do you need to build such a sharp and pointed fence?" ”

Han Yu was stunned.

In retrospect, there was a window on the opposite side of the staircase, and the purpose of blocking a fence in front of the window really didn't make much sense.

At first, he thought it was for the sake of beauty, but it seemed a little unreasonable to increase the danger for the sake of beauty.

"Was it added later? Someone deliberately built this fence in order to deal with Bai Fei? ”

Han Yu speculated.

"Nope." Zhou Erya shook her head and said lightly, "This fence was there twenty years ago. ”

So what else do you say?

Han Yu couldn't help but smile bitterly, twenty years ago, Bai Fei was at most a baby who had just come out of her mother's womb, could it be that before she was born, even if it was decided that this girl would be admitted to a women's university in the future, and be the heroine of the drama club, she had a tryst with someone in the props room, and fell down the stairs?

It's just ridiculous.

Han Yu tried his best to understand Zhou Erya, but he always failed to understand the essentials, but what made him curious was that Zhou Erya actually knew about the situation of the Women's University twenty years ago - at that time, he was only seven or eight years old, right?

"Speaking of which, how do you know there's a fence there? You...... Have you ever been to a women's university before? Han Yu had actually wanted to ask for a long time, but he had been holding back to find a suitable opportunity.

Zhou Erya didn't want to mention her mother, and everyone pretended not to know what to do to cooperate with him.

But Han Yu really wanted to know about his life experience, and secretly collected a lot of Lin Wanru's deeds during her lifetime, only knowing that Lin Wanru was expelled from the school because of the feminist demonstration.

But it seems that Zhou Erya is very familiar with the school building, and she seems to have more feelings for the studio.

So he must have visited a women's university before.

So why did Lin Wanru return to her alma mater?

"yes." Zhou Erya didn't deny it, her dark eyes narrowed slightly, as if she was stuck in a memory, "At that time, the school building had just been renovated, and the fence had just been repaired, so it would really take almost twenty years." ”

"How can you get in?" Han Yu asked tentatively.

It's a pity that Zhou Erya seemed to be stuck in a memory, and she didn't speak for a long time.

Han Yu knew that these things had nothing to do with the case, and he was afraid that Zhou Erya would be unhappy when he asked again, so he had to sigh and say:

"The fence of 20 years ago will have nothing to do with the dead 20 years from now, right? We were looking for other clues, and I felt more and more that it might have been an accident. ”

They could not find the possibility of murder, and it was common sense to infer that it could only be an accident.

"Nope." Zhou Erya seemed to be withdrawn from her memories, but instead laughed, smelling the truth, "That's not necessarily. Twenty years ago, the fence made me begin to understand the motives of the murderer. ”

Han Yu was shocked: "You have already guessed the murderer at this time?" ”

I don't have a clue yet!

Although Zhou Erya can always find another way to find the strange truth of the case, it is not enough to directly identify the murderer without any clues, right?

"No, I just thought of something." Zhou Erya's slender fingers tapped on the table, "If you know the possible motive, you may not know the murderer." ”

He paused, and then said to Han Yu: "We have to find some information about the Women's University twenty years ago, and you and Murong go to communicate with that Director Qiu." ”

Why did we have to start 20 years ago to solve the case?

And the tone of telling him and Murong to find it was like Murong was also a member of the detective agency, and he was at his disposal.

Han Yu was helpless, after all, Zhou Erya's strange ideas had been proven correct several times, and he could only try it.

However, thinking of the old-fashioned and serious Director Qiu, Han Yu was still a little timid: "If it doesn't work, let's go together, she is still more polite to you." ”

Murong is a female student after all, if Director Qiu is unhappy, how annoying it will be to look up and see you at school in the future.

Han Yu felt that he was sometimes more considerate and closer to people than Zhou Erya.

"Then you let Murong speak." Zhou Erya quickly shirked her responsibilities and didn't want to say a word to the old woman at all.

"I think you have a better chance of succeeding, she speaks to you a lot gently, Murong is her student after all, and she asks so much...... What if Director Qiu is upset? Han Yu felt that Director Qiu hated all men, and it was indeed the best way to let Murong come forward, but he was very worried that Director Qiu would hold a grudge against Murong.

"You're so worried about her, just say it yourself." Zhou Erya didn't seem to be worried about her "fiancΓ©e" at all, and said.

Han Yu sighed, he had no way to disobey Zhou Erya's intentions, and said helplessly: "Then I'll try it early tomorrow morning." ”

According to Director Qiu's schedule, it is already too late, and it is the right time to go to her at nine o'clock tomorrow morning.

Looking at the dark sky outside, Zhou Erya sat under the light with some disgust, waiting for Adjutant Cai to come and pick him up.

A few gunshots rang out in the distance, sparking a lot of talk from the diners around them, possibly to suppress the students who were demonstrating.

Zhou Erya looked at the dark night filled with thick fog outside, and didn't know when she would be able to wait for the sun to pierce and the world to be bright.
