The damp wind blew the fallen leaves in the yard.

"Bell-"

The girl looked back at the man with a bright smile in his hand holding a huge bouquet of flowers.

"Uncle, you haven't come to see me for a long time!"

"Ah, uncle is busy, in order to let Xiaoyan fly again, he is busy." The man removed the withering bouquet from the vase and replaced it with a fresh, scented plant.

"Uncle, you laugh at me again, I don't have wings, where can I fly." The girl lay on the white hospital bed, and the wires of the instruments were wrapped around her, like a lock, blocking her in the room.

The man and the girl chatted for a long time, about her homework, about the watercolors she painted yesterday, about going on a trip together when she got well...... It didn't take long for the girl's physical strength to support her excitement and unconsciously fell into a coma.

The man silently left the ward, closed the door of the ward, and saw another uncle standing opposite in a daze, his beard was cleanly shaved, but magical but decadent.

"Eavesdropping at the door?" The man asked.

The uncle was stunned and said very seriously, "Thank you, doctor." ”

The man showed a weird smile that was different from just now, "Thank you, without you, the plan would not have been implemented." ”

“…… You say, Xiaoyan is really, promisingly? ”

"Otherwise, why are we still working so hard?" The man glanced at the guy in a daze, "Don't worry, I've found the next target, you just need to take care of your part." A matter of the heart... Just leave it to me. ”

The man lowered his head and looked at his right hand, his face grim.

――――――――――――――

"I said to call my brother, but the child actually said: How can there be such an old brother, ahhhhhh Lao Tzu is such a young and talented person, and he hasn't even had a girlfriend for a few ......" Bai Ling sat at the desk and complained to the poker-faced Xue Yang.

"How many?" Xue Yang asked.

Yes?

"The point is, how many have you handed over?" Xue Yang asked sharply, and it was easy to see that Bai Ling became gritted his teeth.

"I haven't handed it in, I'm satisfied!" Molar hoho.

Da Xuan smashed the document on Bai Ling's face, "It's very idle, I'm not called uncle yet, this little thing is ridiculous." ”

Before Da Xuan finished speaking, he looked at Bai Ling and Xue Yang's expressions of wanting to speak and stopping.

Da Xuan narrowed his eyes, "What are you doing?" Comments? ”

Bai Ling Xue Yang shook his head into a rattle.

"They want to say, it's normal for you to be called an uncle."

Da Xuan turned around and saw Coco walking in the door with a black cat in his arms.

"Nonsense! How can I be so young, wait, aren't you going to work next week? And what did you bring the cat for? Da Xuan pointed to the black cat that had jumped out of the cage and jumped leisurely between the desks, and asked.

"It's coming on its own, uncle." Coco ignored the appearance of the person opposite blowing his beard and glaring, and turned to look at Bai Ling. "I'm going to do an autopsy in the afternoon, do you want to visit?"

Xiaobai burrowed under the table and pretended to be a plant.

"I'm very young! What is it called, uncle! The big eyebrows folded, and he was angry.

Coco stared at him twice, and put on a look of agreement, "It makes sense, only those who are handsome can be called uncle, and you can only be called a master." ”

Everyone in the office was holding back a smile.

Zhou Daxuan was simply out of anger, and gritted his teeth word by word, "Xun Keran, has the psychological counseling passed?" If you don't pass, you are not allowed to go to the scene for investigation! ”

Coco, who was already planning to leave, slowly turned around and smiled softly at Da Xuan's revenge, "Susu, leave it here for a day, thank you, thank you,"

The black cat Su Su heard the suppressed anger in the owner's tone, raised his claws, and with a wave, knocked over the teacup on the big table to the ground, and then happily jumped to the top of the cabinet with perennial dust, observing the reaction of the owner of the teacup.

Da Xuan slowly raised his head and faced the pair of dark green cat's eyes on the top of the cabinet.

Great, you can try all the bad things you can't do at home here! - The contemptuous cat's eyes seemed to say.

The entire office was silent, except for the sound of Coco humming in the hallway.

――――――――――――――

This is the second time that I have seen this name on the Forensic Medicine Registration Form. This kind of thing is rare in Coco's experience.

The first time was because of Xu Li's case, Zeng Jianming was confirmed to be one of the criminals who abused and raped Xu Li, and was registered in Coco's final report.

The second time, as a victim, Zeng Jianming was wrapped in a cold body bag, lost his most important organ as a human being, and was sent to the freezer.

The two times I saw this name, the time was only a few months. All the people who hurt others probably don't think that they might be in the same place soon, but you can think.

Zeng Jianming's corpse was even more miserable than Coco imagined, in addition to the loss of his heart, the entire chest cavity was corroded by acidic fluid. Signs of binding were found on both hands and feet of the corpse, as well as blunt force trauma to the back of the head from a heavy blow. In order to prevent speculation when the situation is unclear at the moment, Coco only recorded the corrosive liquid burns on the report, and did not write any inferences of her own.

"You think it's kidnapping and murder?" Guji sat in a comfortable sofa chair and looked up at Coco.

Attending Guji's counseling once a week was a quid pro quo for her return to her forensic work.

"In the headless female corpse case before, you also saw the information of that case?" Coco asked, standing by the window.

"Well, I've seen some ......," Guji said.

"Then I'll put it bluntly, the traces of binding on the hands and the blunt force trauma to the back of the head can easily be inferred as knocking the victim unconscious, kidnapping, tying up, and then killing." Coco said, realizing that Guji did not respond to her statement, but looked down at the information in his hand.

It was not her willingness to come to participate in psychological counseling, and the police force had regulations that required regular communication with psychologists for specific positions, especially after being assaulted or shooting and killing suspects in the case, so when Coco's shoulder injury was about to recover, she was almost angry again by the psychological counseling notice signed by the director.

"You don't want to listen to these words, please sign it for me as soon as possible, I'm happy if you're happy." Coco pushed the pen directly in front of Guji, forcing her to raise her head and look directly at herself.

"Coco, I know you don't want to come to counseling."

"Thank you for your understanding, hero, please sign me quickly." Coco said bluntly.

Guji glanced down at the pen on the table and smiled like a kindergarten child, "But it's true that your life was threatened during the investigation of the case, and you also attacked the murderer unnecessarily." ”

Ah, that's right, Lao Tzu took a knife and directly nailed that guy's hand to the ground, if it weren't for being threatened by the director because of this, I would be so obedient and sitting here doing this kind of disgusting thing for us to talk about? Coco muttered a whole circle in her heart, looked up and continued to smile, "But my injury is almost healed, and my recent work has not been affected at all..."

"Trauma is often much worse than you think."

"Eun, I understand." Coco nodded, that's what every doctor said anyway.

Guji had a professional gentle smile on his face, but his eyes were very serious, "Will you let the corpse that has not been found out the cause of death be sent directly to be cremated?" ”

Coco was speechless for a while, calm and calm, impulsive is the devil, and the attitude must be correct, "...... No. ”

"That's right, so I'm not going to give you this opportunity to escape from reality."

Coco turned her gaze back from the window and looked directly into the other party's serious eyes, and Coco sighed deeply, "Okay, what do you want to talk about?" There are a lot of cases that I can't just mention. ”

"I know, what's going on with the wound on your shoulder?"

Coco raised her shoulders, "It's almost, it shouldn't affect the strength of your arms in the future." ”

"You want to talk about ...... What happened in the basement that day? ”

"I don't want to." Coco said bluntly, looking at Guji's stunned reaction, and added, "Psychological counseling requires me to be as truthful as possible, isn't it?" ”

Guji smiled good-naturedly, "That's right, it's okay if you don't want to talk about what happened that day, so let's talk about something a little more distant, like ...... Your sister's death. ”

Coco slowly retracted the smile on the corner of her mouth, and looked at Guji's eyes that instantly turned cold to freezing point.

Guji was not afraid of her gaze, "You and I both know that someone must help you unravel this poison so that you can let go of the past and move on." ”

Coco looked away.

"If you're angry, or hate me, it's okay. I'm willing to be this person you hate and help you get through this quagmire. ”

"Don't be presumptuous." Coco's tone is not good, but there is warmth, "No one can casually untie the knot that has been hidden in other people's hearts for many years." ”

Looking at her slightly stubborn expression, Gu Ji smiled, "That's right, what I said is too exaggerated, so let's make an agreement, three things, as long as you talk to me about three things you remember, sister's things, I will sign it for you, how about it?" ”

Coco looked at Guji and tried to see the meaning of the joke in the eyes of the woman in front of her, but she failed.

This guy is actually serious, should I say that she is idle, or that she has the means? Coco sighed inwardly and rubbed her brows.

――――――――――――――

Coco half reclined in a comfortable chair, closed her eyes, and relaxed her breathing.

"Anything, Coco, anything about your sister when you were a child, tell me, what's the first thing that comes to your mind?"

“…… Tree... It was a big, big ginkgo tree, and the sun was shining from it. My sister said it was hundreds of years old......"

How long is a few hundred years? Did mom and dad already give birth at that time? Eleven-year-old Coco asked fifteen-year-old Xun Yunjie.

"My sister was laughing, and she thought my question was silly...... She'd take me on expeditions, what's called a secret base for kids or something. There is a building next to it, which is very gloomy all year round, and there are a lot of scary things in it, but in fact, they are just some experimental organs, and they are placed in a high cabinet. ”

Guji saw that the corners of Coco's mouth inadvertently showed a smile.

"She'll point to things that I don't dare to look at and scare me, it's your math teacher's lungs, it's our English teacher's stomach...... Then I believed it, and the next day I told my classmates that the math teacher's lungs were actually so black, and the teacher heard it......"

Guji smiled softly, "Actually, you like that place very much, right?" ”

"No, that place was my nightmare when I was a child, there is a very old photo in my family album, it was taken in that building, we went on an adventure together, my sister deliberately scared me, and then in the photo I was so scared that my mouth grew up, next to it was a skeleton shelf, and my sister was laughing happily."

Guji pondered for a moment, and Coco opened his eyes, "That's one thing, right?" You have said three things, and if I finish today, you will sign it for me today. ”

"Yes, but I'd love to know who went on the expedition with you?" Guji tilted his head and asked.

Coco was stunned, "...... What the? ”

"You just said that in the photo you opened your mouth wide, and my sister laughed badly, so who took this photo?"

Coco opened her mouth slightly, stunned for a long time, and then said in a stiff tone, "No one." ”

Then get up and grab your coat.

"Eh, wait......" Gu Ji said.

Xun Keran walked out of the psychological counseling room without looking back.

Guji didn't stop him, he just stared at the closed door and pondered for a long time.
