Chapter 10: Back to the Fog
"Dead? How did he die? Lin Hua is so young, how could he die? Lin Suo, you're not kidding, are you? β
I couldn't believe my ears and asked. An indescribable sadness immediately appeared on Lin Suo's face, and he let out a long sigh and lowered his head, not answering my question for a long time. I looked anxiously at Ling Jing who was standing aside, she avoided looking at each other, hurriedly turned her head sideways, and became speechless. I was unwilling to repeat the question again, Lin Suo still bowed his head and was silent, Ling Jing raised his head slightly, his eyes met my gaze, and he looked at me and Lin Suo with an expression that wanted to speak and stopped, and after hesitating for a long time, he only let out a long sigh.
"Lin Hua, he, he won't be committing suicide, right? Did he have any disease? β
Looking at Lin Suo and his fiancΓ©e's evasive expressions, I even suspected that Lin Hua's cause of death had some shameful suffering, so I could only subconsciously think about the cause of his death to the worst. Although Lin Hua was an unruly and unruly kid in the past, he had a cheerful personality and was righteous, and his heart was still full of sunshine and kindness, no matter how he thought about suicide, he would not be involved in it, unless he was also playing with fire**, and he was infected with some kind of incurable disease like Zhao Gang.
"Xiaolou, don't think about it. Lin Hua may be playful, but he has his own way of doing things. He, he, he died to save me, a lot of things about my distant cousin in the United States, find a chance to talk to you in the future, I really don't want to talk about this anymore now, maybe these two years! β
Lin Suo kept swallowing his saliva, said these words with difficulty, turned his head and looked at me seriously, there was an indescribable sadness and fragility in his eyes, which made people feel very distressed to watch. Lin Hua died to save him? During this period of time and night together, in my heart, Lin Suo is almost an omnipotent man, what is the reason why he needs someone else to save his life? What happened after Lin Hua went to the United States? If he hadn't used such drastic methods to make him choose to leave, would he not have had an accident?
Lin Suo's pain evoked my guilt, and this guilt reminded me of the many things Lin Hua had done for himself, those flamboyant likes. The sadness also swallowed himself, his eyes moistened inexplicably, and a tear rolled down silently.
"Xiaolou, are you crying?"
Ling Jing in red screamed as if she had discovered a new continent, and I immediately felt extremely embarrassed and ashamed. is already a wife, but she actually cried in public for her former rumored boyfriend, what will others think? Hurriedly wiped away his tears with his hands, and pretended not to care and reached out to take the jade necklace around his neck.
"Lin Suo, I didn't know that this necklace was so important to you before, but now that I'm fine, it's not appropriate to wear it anymore, so I'll return it to you! Thank you so much for doing so much for my sister and me, and I hope you will always be happy, don't let it affect your relationship! β
"No, Xiaolou! As I said, the jade necklace has been given to you, and I will never return it. From now on, you must always wear it on your body! Before Lin Hua died, I promised him that if I met you one day, I would definitely take care of you for him! β
"Ke Lin Suo, I'm really not his girlfriend, there is some misunderstanding between me and Lin Hua! I don't want to be kind to others because of him! β
"Xiaolou, don't you understand? For Lin Hua, the important thing is not your relationship, but that he has always cared about you very much! I couldn't save him in time, and now I can't afford to lose my word. The virus on the tail of the rat has not yet been studied, Yang Jianwen and Principal Bai are still in the hospital, and nothing will be allowed to happen to you, and the necklace must be worn at any time! β
Lin Suo's attitude towards the jade necklace was unprecedentedly resolute, and his tone was sincere and reasonable. Compared with Lin Hua's domineering and domineering back then, Lin Suo's attitude towards people is much warmer and more comfortable. After thinking about it, I nodded and left the necklace, but I thought in my heart that when the virus on the rat's tail was completely investigated, the necklace would be returned to Zhao.
The moment I looked up again, I seemed to see some unhappiness flashing on Ling Jing's extremely beautiful face, but that expression was fleeting. Her cleverness had long since made her fade away from the noisy pungency of earlier, and when she spoke again, it was all empathetic gentleness.
"Yes, Xiaolou, you must keep the necklace, it is more important to you than to us, not to mention how can the deep relationship between me and Qihan for many years be affected by a necklace. Xiaolou is very sorry, I don't know the cause and effect of this matter, the first time I have been separated from Qihan for so long, it is because I am too nervous, and I let you laugh at my gaffe. In this way, I will be the east in the evening, and invite the colleagues of the thirteen institutes to have a big dinner, abalone, lobster, bird's nest, shark fin, you can order as you like, and you should also make amends, okay? β
She raised her angelic face and asked with a sweet, harmless smile.
"Thank you, really, as long as you're okay better than anything. I can't go today, Wen Hui has to go back to the base tomorrow, the plane early in the morning, and he is ready to see him off in the evening, and there are many things to prepare. Invite your other colleagues to eat, they're all very nice and want to get to know you. β
Hearing my simple refusal, the curvature of Ling Jing's smiling mouth changed slightly, but she didn't show displeasure, and she didn't insist on asking me to go to dinner with her after thinking about it. After Lin Suo told the news of Lin Hua's death, the whole person had been looking very tired, and he didn't speak when he heard her proposal, and the three people in the room were silent.
I was a little embarrassed to be a light bulb, since I couldn't know more about Lin Hua, it was pointless to stand in his office again. Just as he was about to leave, Lin suddenly spoke, and he offered to take me to meet all the members of the Thirteen Institutes, and after so many days, I finally had the opportunity to officially say hello to them.
Standing in the conference room of the thirteen new office buildings, he looked at the eight people in front of him, they were Lin Suo, Mu Ruoyan, Shi Fan, Tang Ming and Ah Mo, the man of the iron tower, as well as an elder with gray hair. The white-haired old man Lin said was called Uncle Qi, an old expert in comprehensive disciplines, and a living encyclopedia. Uncle Qi is mainly responsible for providing information to the Thirteen Institutes, he is in charge of the data room and archives of the Thirteen Institutes, and is a very important behind-the-scenes hero of the Thirteen Institutes.
The tower man without a smile on his face, his real name is Lin Mo, his family has followed the Lin family for generations, he grew up with Lin Qihan since he was a child, and his relationship is comparable to that of his own brother. Tang Ming, who met for the first time in the club, used to be the captain of the Wudu Criminal Police Brigade, although he seemed to be a ruffian, he was actually bold and careful, and successfully completed many dangerous undercover missions.
Among these people, only Uncle Qi is the first time I have seen him, and the others are half old acquaintances, and their new office building is in the center of Wudu, which is very convenient for transportation. Because of the earliest handling of the Fog Great Evil Gate garbage station, the identities of the vast majority of the members of the Thirteen Colleges have been exposed, so they urgently need an administrative coordinator who is familiar with the environment of the university, has rich experience in finance and daily administrative management, and is very affinity, and can get along with the teachers and students of the major universities.
This coordinator is working in the University Student Joint Center in the fog university on the surface, and is responsible for dealing with and solving the psychological problems of college teachers and students, but in fact, he is secretly collecting the information needed to solve the strange cases of each university for the thirteen schools, and I am the administrative coordinator.
After experiencing all kinds of misfortunes such as the mysterious death of my sister and brother-in-law, and the deception and dismissal of my own work, I, Jiang Xiaolou, were finally able to return to Wudu University, and returned to Wudu University as a staff member, and started my new work and life.
On the first day of working at the University Student Joint Center, I was given a task by the 13 institutes. They received news that the medical center of the University of Fog Medical College had been a little strange recently, and they tried their best to collect relevant clues.
