Wang Shen took the mobile phone in the policewoman's hand, and there was an interview video on the screen. Xu Xiaolin, who has never been on the road in public, actually held a book launch. Xu Xiaolin stood on the stage with a huge poster of a book behind her. The title of the book is Homecoming: Nemesis. When Wang Shen saw the title of the book, his heart trembled slightly. Wang Shen took out his phone and typed the name of the book into the browser. Wang Shen clicked into the trial chapter......

"The night was as black as ink, and it was pressing down on the whole planet. There were a few thunderstorms in the sky, and I heard the thunder getting closer and closer. Finally, it was like it exploded in my ears. Soon, the rain poured down from far away in the sky, with a roar and a deserved torrent, washing the otherwise bustling streets into silence. This is a novel serialized by Xu Xiaolin on the Internet some time ago. It is precisely because of the appearance of this novel that the public's speculation about Han Mo's case has been aroused. In the end, the bureau decided to appoint Wang Shen to re-investigate the case. As the author of the novel, Xu Xiaolin was also invited to become a member of the investigation team.

Everything is a bureau, and it is a bureau carefully designed by Xu Xiaolin. She wanted to avenge her sister, but according to this reasoning, then ...... Wang Shen thought of this and felt the need to meet Xu Xiaolin. Wang Shen hadn't dialed Xu Xiaolin's phone on his mobile phone, and the interview footage replayed on the policewoman's mobile phone attracted Wang Shen's attention again.

"Writer Xu, as a reader, I have a question for you."

Xu Xiaolin in the video nodded elegantly.

"As a popular mystery novelist, you've always been the most mysterious of all. I've never seen you hold a book launch before, and we've never seen you in person. I saw it today, and I was really surprised and curious. Why did you suddenly want to hold this press conference? ”

"Because I saw a lot of comments from readers on the Internet. I think about it myself, and I can't help but feel sorry for everyone's love for me. You must have a lot of questions about the novel. Words on the Internet still can't get closer to readers. That's why I decided to hold this book signing this time, firstly, to promote my new book, and secondly, to get close to you. ”

"Actually, I have a more curious question, I don't know if it's convenient for you to ask?"

"Tell me." Xu Xiaolin tidied up the hair around her ears and smiled.

"It's about how you look. To be honest, the moment you showed up, we were all taken aback, because you look too similar, too much like ......" The reader looked around at the people around him, and then observed Xu Xiaolin's face, and the words were stuck in the middle of the road.

"I look a lot like Han Mo, don't I?" It turned out that Xu Xiaolin still had two shallow dimples on her face when she laughed.

There was a lot of discussion in the audience, all like Xu Xiaolin cast a curious gaze.

"Actually, Han Mo and I are sisters." Xu Xiaolin's tone was not hurried or slow.

The audience began to boil, and they all rushed to grab the microphone and prepare to ask Xu Xiaolin a question. The video of the interview was abruptly interrupted when it got here......

Wang Shen stared at the still picture for a long time, and it was not until the policewoman reminded him that he came back to his senses and handed back his phone. Wang Shen picked up his mobile phone and tried to dial Xu Xiaolin's phone again. This time, it was connected after a few calls.

"I'm already at the Zhile Cafe, I'll wait for you." Before Wang Shen could reply, Xu Xiaolin hung up the phone after saying this.

Old place, two cups of coffee rising with a slight mist. The whole café is filled with a rich aroma. Wang Shen pulled out a chair and sat down in front of Xu Xiaolin.

"American, I know you're only drinking this." Xu Xiaolin pushed the coffee cup next to Wang Shen in the direction of Wang Shen.

"Thank you." Wang Shen said lightly, but still picked up the coffee and took a sip. "With your current status, you are no longer suitable to investigate Han Mo's case."

"I know, and I can totally understand it." Xu Xiaolin didn't show excessive loss, but gently blew on the coffee in her hand for a few breaths, and then took a sip, with an intoxicated look on her face.

For this, it is not expected by Wang Shen. Wang Shen thought that when Xu Xiaolin heard the news, she would feel a little lost because she couldn't get in touch with Han Mo's case. At present, Xu Xiaolin has long known this result.

"Is everything in your calculations?"

"What do you mean? Let you re-investigate my sister's case, or expose Zheng Wu's crimes. It's all true, and I didn't do anything wrong. Xu Xiaolin put down the coffee cup in her hand. Maybe because of the new book signing, Xu Xiaolin's lipstick today is very red, and even the coffee cup has left two lip prints.

"You didn't do anything wrong. However, your mind is too deep. It's scary to be like that. ”

"Wang Shen, we have known each other for many years. If you look at this from my point of view, you might be able to understand it. The long-lost sister was murdered for no reason, and the culprit is still at large. As a younger sister, can you tolerate such a thing going on forever? My sister's affair only stimulated the instinct of self-preservation. Human potential is truly limitless. Before that, even I couldn't believe that I could plan the design in the novel into real life. ”

"Are you so sure your sister was murdered?"

"Eight or nine is not far from ten."

"Do you have proof?"

"Nope."

"Do you have a way to crack that secret room?"

"Nope. However, there will always be a way to crack it. When Xu Xiaolin answered Wang Shen's question, her tone did not hesitate. She kept spinning the coffee cup in her hand, and the seemingly red lip print formed a bright red arc.

"Good. Actually, you didn't plan to use the power of our police to help you find clues to Han Mo's case from the beginning, right? Wang Shen's eyes stared at Xu Xiaolin. Xu Xiaolin also looked at Wang Shen, but she just smiled and did not give a positive or negative answer. "The purpose of your participation in the investigation this time is actually Zheng Wu. Zheng Wucai is your target, or ......" Wang Shen paused for a moment, and then continued: "Or, Zheng Wu is just your first target. ”

"You haven't changed at all." Xu Xiaolin looked at Wang Shen in front of her, and her tone of voice was calm and natural. "You're as smart and alert as ever, and you're able to exercise calm judgment at all times."

"If I'm right, tell me what else are your goals? I...... Let's ask questions in a different way. What other people do you know that have hurt Han Mo? Wang Shen was not happy because of Xu Xiaolin's praise, but felt a little scared of her calm state at the moment.

"I don't know." Xu Xiaolin put the coffee cup to her mouth and shook her head.

"What about Han Mo's diary? Are they all in your hands? ”

"I'm also looking for the whereabouts of my sister's diary. If you have her diary, you can follow the map to find the relevant clue characters. ”

At this time, Wang Shen's mobile phone rang. Wang Shen glanced at the caller ID, it was Lin Su. Wang Shen hung up the phone and still looked at Xu Xiaolin. "In that case, we'll leave the rest to the police." Wang Shen picked up the coffee cup on the table, drank it all, got up and planned to leave.

"Although I will no longer be able to participate in your police investigation, I will find out the truth in my own way." Xu Xiaolin's eyes looked out the window, and there was a hint of irresistible flavor in her tone.

Wang Shen stopped, but didn't look back, and left the café straight after listening to Xu Xiaolin's words.

Out of the door of the café, Wang Shen called Lin Su back. Sure enough, Lin Su also knew about Xu Xiaolin's new book signing, and was also shocked by the fact that Xu Xiaolin and Han Mo were biological sisters. Lin Su expressed his speculation about Xu Xiaolin on the phone, and a large part of it coincided with the conclusion reached by Wang Shen. Wang Shen also told Lin Su about the idea of aborting the agreement between them. However, Lin Su rejected Wang Shen's proposal. Although Xu Xiaolin could no longer join forces with the police to conduct relevant investigations, Lin Su insisted on participating in the investigation of this case. Lin Su's reasoning is the same as at that time, this is a rare opportunity for cross-border cooperation. It's just that Lin Su made a small request at the right time. That is, if the case is successfully solved, within a reasonable range, he can use this cross-border cooperation as a selling point for the promotion of the novel in the future. Wang Shen smiled bitterly in his heart. Obviously, in Wang Shen's eyes, Lin Su is more of a businessman than a writer. However, having a capable helper doesn't stop anything. Therefore, Wang Shen still agreed to Lin Su's request.

Zheng Wu received the punishment he deserved after the ruling of the law. This can also be regarded as the biggest gain since the restart of Han Mo's case. The breakthrough point of Han Mo's case is that in order to confirm that it was homicide, the possibility of suicide must be ruled out first. And to rule out the possibility of Han Mo's suicide, you can crack the impregnable secret room. In order to crack the secret room, Wang Shen has been collecting clues near Han Mo's house for the past few days. But with the passage of time, a lot of evidence has gradually been buried in the cracks of time.

This night, Wang Shen just finished dealing with some small work at hand, and was about to go to Han Mo's house to try his luck again. Wang Shen parked the car not far from Han Mo's house and walked to Han Mo's house. Wang Shen glanced at the surrounding environment, the street lights were really dim, and there was no perfect property management and monitoring device. Living in such an area, the chances of encountering risks are indeed much higher. Within a few minutes, Wang Shen walked downstairs to the building where Han Mo lived. In the past, every time I came to look for clues during the day, most of the neighbors around me were not at home. Wang Shen wanted to take the opportunity of the evening to find out some news from the surrounding neighbors. At this time, a construction truck flashed its headlights and drove all the way to Wang Shen. Wang Shen took a closer look, and it turned out to be an engineering truck cleaning garbage. The construction truck stopped, and a man stepped out of the car. The man, in his mid-fifties, dressed in overalls, walked to a few garbage cans by the wall as soon as he got out of the car.
