226. Encounters
Could it be that Uncle Xiao forgot to bring his mobile phone when he went out, so no one answered when she made so many calls just now? She was a little confused. But it's not like leaving someone at home and waiting for no news, right?
"There seems to be a cell phone ringing inside." Glacier recounted lightly.
"Uh-huh......" and ringing the doorbell didn't respond. It seems that it is too reckless to run like this. "Forget it, let's go back first."
"Why don't you go in and have a look?" Glacier asked.
"How to get in? Can I still slam the door open? She shrugged.
"Just use the key to get in the door." Glacier took out a bunch of keys, selected one and inserted it into the keyhole, and the door opened.
She was so surprised that she couldn't close her mouth, "Where did you get the key?" β
"Copied before." Glacier said nonchalantly.
Is it common for Japanese people to copy the keys of other people's homes? She stared at Glacier in disbelief, and the latter was so natural that she couldn't open the door any more naturally, and she paused as soon as she stepped through the door.
"What's wrong?" She asked. Is there a trap in there?
"You come in and take a look." Glacier nodded to her.
There was a faint smell of blood coming from insideβshe had a bad premonition. When she walked in the door, she almost vomited out - it could no longer be called a human being, only a corpse, Xiao's father's throat was torn fiercely, the gushing blood had dyed the living room furniture black and purple, and the limbs were torn and broken as if they were torn by the fangs and claws of some beast, and the expression on his face was frozen in the horror and pain before he died.
"Don't go over!" She subconsciously wanted to walk over, but was quickly stopped by Glacier Lian, "If anything falls on the scene, it may not only affect the judgment of the case, but also may be regarded as a criminal." β
Ah, yes, how did she forget that. "I know, you let me go first, I'll call the police." She suppressed the urge to vomit and took out her phone to dial 110.
Leading the team was her acquaintance, the upright and short-tempered criminal police captain Meng Fan. "You're you again?" Meng Fan frowned when he saw her.
She hadn't seen Meng Fan for a while, and she was worried that Meng Fan would be depressed for a long time because of Professor Meng's affairs, but now it seems that he has cheered up. If you ask him about Professor Meng's case, will he be mad on the spot? "I don't want to." She smiled wryly.
"How did you get in?" Meng Fan looked at them suspiciously.
She intuitively looked at Glacier Relent, only to see Glacier Relent's face unchanged and say, "We have a backup key." β
"Keys?" Meng Fan half-narrowed his eyes in confusion, "How can you have the key?" Is there any special relationship with their family? β
She also wanted to see how Glacier would respond. Glacier Pity's expression did not change at all, and he replied, "The deceased entrusted me with his safety, so he gave me this key. But since I'm Shi Sui's bodyguard now, I can't accept his commission, so I'm officially here today to refuse and return the key. β
Really? Did Father Xiao contact Glacier Mercy? Why hadn't she heard about it at all? But looking at the unwavering expression of Glacier Rei, it doesn't look like he's lying......
Meng Fan nodded and said, "You go downstairs and wait first, and I'll learn something from you later." β
Glacier Ren pulled her into the elevator expressionlessly, and she asked, "Ren, when did you have contact with Uncle Xiao?" I hadn't heard you say that before. β
"We haven't been in touch, we only met him on the day he went to the magazine to look for you, so of course there is no need to mention it to you." Glacier said.
What the?! It turns out that Glacier Ren is also a person who lies and doesn't make drafts, and casually matches someone else's house key?! "It's a crime to give a false confession." She twitched the corners of her mouth and said.
"If they can prove it's fake." Glacier replied calmly.
She felt like she knew a bunch of Martians. She sighed.
"Are you angry?" Glacier Ren asked, a little puzzled.
"Nope." Does anger work? "What the hell do you think this is all about?"
"I just looked a little bit and saw that there were zombies and corpse spots on the corpse, which would only happen after at least three or four hours of death, and according to the body's body temperature and the current temperature, this person should have died for five to six hours. And at that time we were all in the magazine, with ample alibi. β
She was surprised and said, "Anything else?" β
"Judging by the shape of the wound, it looks like it was caused by a large canine." "But there were no dog-like tracks at the scene. Now it depends on whether the police can find something like hair from the scene, which can prove what kind of animal it is. β
Large canines? She immediately remembered the human-wolf-like monster she had seen at Xuanyuan Rank. Could it be that the human wolf killed someone? But if that human wolf was Xiao Mo, how could he attack his father? Besides, if such a conspicuous animal is moving on the street, how can there be no witnesses?
"You...... Do you know something? Glacier Ren was staring at her, and I am afraid that the expression she had just thought about did not escape Glacier Mercy's eyes.
"I just wonder if this has something to do with Xiao Mo's disappearance." She said.
"Maybe. But for me, it doesn't really matter. Glacier said indifferently.
"Since you don't think it matters, why do you want to give them a house key? Could it be that this is your special preference? She tried to ask in a joking tone.
"It's only because this incident may bring you danger that I'll be prepared for a bit." Glacier explained.
Hehehe, should she be moved by this? "Thank you for bothering." She said.
Glacier Ren shook his head lightly and said, "No thanks, please take it for granted." β
She wasn't even sure if she was sincere in thanking her...... "By the way, I wanted to ask you before, why are you willing to come to be a bodyguard like a nobody?" β
"You don't like it?" Glacier mercy.
"It's not a matter of liking it or not." She frowned and said, "I want to know your reasons." β
"The reason ......," Glacier said lightly, "I want to do this, is that not enough?" For a moment, there seemed to be a crack in Glacier Ren's frozen and quiet temperament, and the puppet-like face without mood fluctuations was a little more dazed.
"It's not insufficient, but there's always a reason for that thought, right?" She asked again.
"Why?" The wrinkles between Glacier's brows grew deeper, "I have to do this, against any difficulty, even if it costs my own life......"
She noticed that Glacier Rei's face had turned pale, and quickly asked, "Rei, are you okay?" Is there something uncomfortable? β
"It's fine." Glacier Ren shook his head, "It's just a bit of a headache......"
"Headache? Do you have a cold? She reached out to test the temperature of Glacier's forehead.
"It's not." Glacier pity's hand flanked her away.
Wrong...... She looked suspiciously at Glacier Rei's still slightly pale side face, it couldn't be someone who threatened Glacier Relent with Lawrence's life to protect her, right?
