Chapter 392: No Comment
Xiang Ling only had time to give birth to this terrible thought, but the blows that followed followed.
"It's not unusual for Xiangwu to guard against you from the beginning, after all, she has long been used to putting me first in everything. But what about the one in the West Courtyard, it was obviously a letter from you to him, he read it, and he knew that it was not his sister who was in the house, but he didn't tell you, and we all knew the news. ”
Lin Jian felt that his voice was a little unfamiliar, as if with the pleasure of revenge and laughter, Xiang Ling stood up with a "rub", Lin Jian did not retreat, but walked a few steps towards her, "Before talking about the letter that day, he spent you, do you remember." ”
"Also, when Su Lian told me about the content of that letter, I never doubted him. Later, I thought about it, Zhongyuan was not on Jingfeng Street at all that day, how did he give the letter to Sister A? Who else but you, who else is with her? Those who fed Dansha to Ah Xue, how could it not be you? I just don't understand, you are doing all these things for the sake of Su Lian, just for the sake of simple clinging? Or do you have some resentment against me and Sumu? I thought about it, and I still don't have a clue. ”
"Su Lian was trapped in the mansion that day because of the affairs of the academy, but you entered the West Courtyard at this time, if the child in the womb is really a coincidence, I really can't believe it now. I'm even thinking now that what you're doing is far from being as simple as I thought. ”
Lin Jianzheng said excitedly, his arm was raised inadvertently, Xiang Ling closed his eyes, but smiled, "It's so eloquent." As for you, it turns out that you know each other's identities, and you still have to be together. ”
Lin Jian trembled with anger.
Xiang Ling had been out for a while, and his knuckles were still white, purely because of the sudden clenching before.
Su Mu sat on the side and didn't dare to provoke him, but his eyes couldn't stop drifting over.
After a while, Lin Jian smiled, "What else should I do, she is also capable of such a thing, and when she is lightly provoked, she can jump out of anything." ”
"If you're not happy, just tell me." Su Mu was a little surprised when he saw him like this, and he didn't dare to move.
"No, but at the very beginning of what I heard, I was a little irritated. Now that I think about it, she was forced to a dead end to say such vicious words, and if I really remembered it, wouldn't I have accidentally fallen into her trap. ”
The knuckles were a little sore, and Lin Jian rubbed them slowly as she spoke. Rubbing the activity, Su Mu just looked at him, and it seemed that there was something different on weekdays.
"You shouldn't be scared, Su Mu." Lin Jian was in this posture, directly propped his elbows on the table and tilted his head.
The eyes were big and bright, with confidence and a slight provocation, so close that Su Mu couldn't take his eyes off when he saw it.
"No, it won't." Su Mu lowered his head slightly, "It has long become a habit to persist in one thing for several years without giving up. Now that we're all together, how can I be afraid. ”
"How many years?" Lin Jian panicked, but he also chased after him, "What do you mean?"
Su Mu was stunned for a moment, and said something else. But Lin Jian could see very clearly, the ears that were close at hand were already red at this time.
Later, when it was time to rest, the two of them tacitly did not mention the matter of Fang Cai, Lin Jian took the initiative to roll to Su Mu's side, and arched evilly, and sure enough, he could immediately feel the stiffness of the person.
Su Mu, did he stand silently behind him a long time ago?
It's a pity that the bed tent is so dark that you can't really see anything. Lin Jian stared at it with wide eyes for a while, and was taken back by Su Mu, "Sleep." ”
There was no Xiangwu, and Xiangling was not there, so the matter of finding another girl to come to the East Courtyard to serve was quickly mentioned, and it was at the morning dinner table a few days later.
"Mother, don't bother with this, we can do it ourselves." Lin Jian secretly pinched Su Mu, and only held back this sentence. Now he simply hates his identity as the eldest sister, otherwise the excuse that the two big men don't need to take care of it is not easy.
Mrs. Su only thought that Lin Jian was still angry, and she didn't know how to answer all of a sudden, and the atmosphere at the dinner table was a little awkward.
Instead, Su Mu stepped forward and sandwiched a small cake from the small plate of his mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, and then said, "I really don't need it these days, I will be ordered to investigate the case immediately, and Lin Tian will go with me." You can leave someone and walk around the neighborhood often and keep an eye out for movements. ”
Investigating the case?
Lin Jian was a little dazed.
The rest of the people at the dinner table stared at each other, and they were all a little confused.
Mrs. Su was a little quicker and leaned forward, "Is it related to your brother?"
There is no definite evidence in the Huofang case so far, and it cannot be directly linked to the Xiuyuan case. The previous backlog could not be solved, and there were new problems, Su Mu had a headache, but he could only say that the matter was very important and there was nothing to say.
And because he hurriedly added at the dinner table, "I have just received the official document, and when I simply clean up, I must go." ”
Water bladders, a change of clothes, stamps, and some black herbal packets.
At first glance, it looks like a light and simple trip.
Lin Jian circled around the table and pinched his chin at the end, "I had to stop me when I went back to the academy before, why did you take me with you this time?" Isn't it an easy case, so can you still take a spin along the way?"
However, the next moment he did not have such a relaxed attitude. "Tuntian? We're going to Sister A's this time?"
"Yes, and there are no guards and retinues, just us." Su Mu packed the things one by one, raised his head again, and looked at him very seriously, "If you want to be at home, you don't have to go with me, just the exchange of letters, it won't be very convenient." ”
"If you want to see me every day, you can say it directly, you don't have to beat around the bush like this."
Lin Jian's face was a little hot, but the words came out. Speaking of which, the two of them really just recognized each other and fit each other, but too many things happened in a row, which diluted the experience a little.
Su Mu just laughed, his eyes smiled into a slit, as Lin Jian said, he was really dissatisfied when he was left at home, and it was really not good to feel that he couldn't see each other separately, the key is...... Lin Jian is also from an innocent family, and he always has to go out to have a good time, so he has been nesting at home, what is the matter?
In short, there are all kinds of messy reasons, and in the end, this is the result, but when he spoke, Su Mu was still a little reserved, "Actually, it is mainly because it involves your eldest sister, so I decided to invite you to go with me." ”
"yes, I know." Lin Jian nodded, "What else?" Anyway, how long has it been pulled after this document has been handed in? You haven't heard back until now?"
"It's not as good as at home, and this investigation is confidential, so we have to be careful."
"Yes, Master Su." Lin Jian stood up straight.
Su Mu couldn't hold back any longer and laughed directly, "It's like it's out of tune like now, and it needs to be punished." ”
No matter how much the bickering between the two pushes the atmosphere to a relaxed level, no one can change the fact that they want to explore the unknown danger. In order to avoid any more toss at home, the two directly chose to come out of the back door.
There are not many ways to get from the city to Tuntian. Fortunately, Tuntian is originally in the lower reaches of the Lihe River, and if you take a boat, it will naturally be the fastest, and it will not be publicized.
After a brief discussion, the two walked straight to the river, and the familiar scenery changed, which made Lin Jian feel a little indescribable. The last time they came over, it was when the fire house case hit a wall, and now they are ready to wade into the water again, but it is still foggy.
"It would be better to get on the boat and blow the wind." Su Mu naturally noticed Lin Jian's situation, and in the past, the other party would not be so silent. Today's appearance made him a little uncomfortable.
"Look, we're almost there." Su Mu held Lin Jian's arm and pointed, they had been walking for nearly an hour, and now they could see the gray and yellow dead grass at the water's edge.
Lin Jian was helpless, but he also looked in the direction between his fingers, this time, it was not the surface of the water, but a few faint black spots, heading here, right on the shore, against the current.
It's past the winter solstice, and at this time, you can see how inaccessible it is from a glance around the body, and the two of them are already a special situation. Lin Jian became interested and hurriedly poked his head out to look.
After a while, the black shadow became clearer and clearer, and four or five figures were actually running in unison, looking extremely embarrassed.
Just the wind in winter and the withered grass that is raised, with a bit of solemnity.
If it was usual, Lin Jian was afraid that he would rush up directly to see what was going on, but now that there was a string in his head, he naturally planned to take a look before he would say anything, and then ask Su Mu what he meant.
However, it was only a flash of energy, and when I looked back, those people were long gone.
"It's a good performance, it's more stable." Su Mu teased him and made Lin Jian furious. However, he himself, it was a little difficult to take his eyes off, it was the direction of Tuntian, was it a coincidence?
The old man on the boat is still there.
Except that the coat on his body is thicker, there is not much difference from the last time I saw him.
It's just that the wind on the river is stronger, so Lin Jian also consciously nested in the shed.
The whereabouts were clear but the future was uncertain, Lin Jian sat in the corner, staring at the speeding scenery outside, and was speechless for a long time. When he came back to his senses, he found that Su Mu was holding his hand.
"Isn't it uncomfortable?"
The cabin was a little dim, but the eyes facing it were bright. Lin Jian slowly buried his head and stuck on his lap, "I thought that this kind of first time when I went out to investigate a case and risked myself alone would make people's blood boil, but now, I feel that my heart is also floating, and I can't settle down." ”
"When I first took office, I was brought by Mr. Wang, who has now returned to my hometown, and at that time I spent more time following him, sorting out files or writing some documents, thinking that handling cases was just that simple. Later, he pointed out that I went out to handle the case, and it was in a small town near Fangzhou. The case was not troublesome, and he sent an entourage to me, sir. However, I went, but I didn't know how to find out. Fortunately, it was just an ordinary dispute, and there would be no irreparable consequences if the time was lost, and it took a while to finally close the case after it was investigated from the beginning. ”
"Later, when I went back to Dali Temple, I only felt discouraged and discouraged, but Mr. Wang did not blame him, but he told me very calmly that the first time is always like this, as long as you pay attention not to make the same mistakes in the future."
"So, every time you come across a case later, you will list all the clues on a piece of paper?" Lin Jian raised his head, and at this angle, he could just see half of Su Mu's chin.
"Hmm."
"Are you scared then?" Lin Jian asked again.
Su Mu just nodded, but Lin Jian already knew the answer the moment he asked, starting from the disappearance of Xiuyuan and his sister, it was a wave of unsettled waves, and there was a lot of fog, even the people around him didn't know how much they were involved.
And now, it is even more involved in the Tuntian case, which affects the whole body.
Su Mu just didn't say it, not that he wasn't afraid.
"Sure enough, the things we have to solve must be faced by ourselves." Lin Jian came to a conclusion, and couldn't wait to go to the front to blow the wind, but was quickly caught by Su Muyan, "Don't be afraid, I'm here, I'm also you." ”
Later, the speed of the boat slowed down a little, and you can feel it while sitting in the shed. As soon as the two of them poked their heads out, they saw that the boat had landed, and in front of the bow was a wide, flat stone, and if they stepped on it, it was safe.
"Be careful, step on here." Lin Jian was escorted to step on it first, and was turning around and stretching out a hand to Su Mu, but at this time, he heard a loud shout, and then, the originally calm water surface splashed several layers of waves.
Accompanied by the spray, there were several long knives that were shining brightly.
