Act V

The next morning I was woken up by a rush of the phone, and I wondered who was coming for me on this big day off!

I came to the city in the spring two years ago, and in the blink of an eye, time flies, and before I can even realize it, it is already the autumn of the following year. My hometown also sent me some seasonal clothes intermittently, and always shouted for me to go home and have a look. I really think it's ridiculous, can't they see that I just don't want to go home and come to this remote city?

I searched for the phone in bed for a long time and didn't find it, and finally found that it was on the coffee table in the living room! Now I really regret the act of throwing it there when I came back yesterday. It's hard to go down, and it's so cold, I don't have the habit of wearing too many clothes to sleep.

I quickly decided to ignore the call, I didn't know anyone anyway. It's been almost half a year since I came here, and I haven't made a new friend. And it's not easy for people like me to make friends, and the interactions between people often contain a deep purpose, and most people will hide this very well. However, this kind of hiding is no different to me, and I used to attend some staff or guest parties at first, but it didn't take long for me to get tired of it.

Because, it's just so boring. Those guys who are polite on the surface, but what they are actually thinking, I really have seen enough. Look enough to the point where you want to vomit.

I glanced at the watch on the wall, it was eight o'clock in the morning, and I went back to sleeping. Yesterday's suicide case made me feel so bad that when I closed my eyes and was full of the twisted, charred arm, I couldn't sleep well all night. As a psychiatrist, I woke up at 3 o'clock in the middle of the night and self-hypnotized myself in front of the mirror before falling asleep.

If I continue like this, I will definitely have a nervous breakdown, and the psychiatrist himself will have mental illness, which is too ironic. After lunch, I went somewhere to relax, and I fell asleep once again thinking about it.

By the time I woke up again, it was already ten o'clock in the morning, and this time I slept comfortably, and I didn't have a dream last night. I woke up and went to the bathroom, washed up briefly, and then changed into clothes. Pull back the curtains and let in the bright sunlight that naturally shines on every corner of the room. I wanted to open the window to let in some air, but when I saw the dew on the glass, I naturally gave up on it.

The so-called autumn rain and cold, the city I am in is located in the Yangtze River basin, which belongs to the south and has no heating. Every morning is very passing, and the feeling of coming out of the warm quilt is really chilling. The cold air suddenly penetrates into the cracks between your clothes, like a pair of cold hands, caressing every corner of your body.

I don't know who said that the south is the land of fish and rice, and the four seasons are as warm as spring. This is simply a lie, unless it is a tropical region like Hainan, the winter in the unheated south is definitely much colder than in the north!

At this point, I would really shiver and retract into the quilt. This silly action would be repeated again and again until I realized that I was going to be late. At first, in order to solve this problem of difficulty in getting out of bed, I deliberately sold a lot of electric heaters and added electric water heaters to the bathroom. The problem was solved very simply, but the electricity bill began to soar straight up, until it reached a height that I could not accept at all.

In the end, I had no choice but to use perseverance to overcome this north-south water and soil adaptation. Accustomed to it, I am now able to get out of bed very easily, although the feeling of cold still does not go away.

The house I rented was a simple one-bedroom apartment, and as soon as I entered the door, there was a very small living room, and at first I didn't want a living room at all, and I didn't have any guests to entertain. To the southeast is only one bedroom, I don't know why the toilet is connected to the bedroom, the balcony is due east, and the west is the kitchen. A pigeon nest of less than 50 square meters in total, that's all I have now, the place was found with the help of a friend from my hometown, and the rent is very cheap, 1,000 per month.

Although the location is not very good, the rent is really cheap. At first, I thought he had found me a murderous house, but after several investigations, I found out that I had wronged him.

The owner of the house is his second uncle and grandfather from afar, who is an old soldier and has made countless achievements in his life. The house was assigned to him by the unit, and now the old man was taken to the United States by his son to enjoy the blessings, and the house was vacant and handed over to a friend of mine to manage, and he saw that I happened to come to this city, so he rented it to me. This thousand is what it means, and he also knows that I will not be willing to take advantage of him in vain.

I made a little breakfast in the kitchen, and I lay down on the sofa in the living room and ate leisurely. At this time, I remembered the phone call in the morning, I flipped out the communication record of my mobile phone, ah, there are so many? Counting them one by one, there are more than a dozen missed calls, when did I become so popular?

The first few calls have always been from my hometown, and I habitually ignored them, so what's the use of coming to me now? The remaining ten are a mobile phone number that has not appeared much, and it is Wang Dazui's. Didn't you just see him yesterday, and isn't he supposed to be very busy at this time? What are you looking for me for?

Feeling that it wouldn't bode well, I threw my breakfast in the trash and began to clean up the mess from last night. Looks like I need to contact him, it can't be that someone noticed my suspicious actions in the lobby on the first floor yesterday, right? My colleagues are all conspiracy theorists, and if any of them see me, they will go to the police to tell me. This kind of thing is still mild in this city, and if you are not careful, you may be taken to court.

Just as I was about to call back Wang Dazui after tidying up my room, a sharp knock on the door interrupted my movements.

"Xiao Yuze, is it? We are the third brigade of the criminal police of the Municipal Public Security Section, the sixth responsibility area of the criminal police team, and there are some questions I want to ask you! Are you there? Please open the door! A somewhat familiar voice came to my ears with a knock on the door.

Is it really a policeman? Is there really someone who is going to snitch? It's really helpless, a good rest day was so spent by Lang, if I let me know who it is, I must not have his good fruit to eat! I had no choice but to walk a few steps to open the door

There was a man and a woman standing outside the door, the man was Wang Dazui, and it was him who shouted the door, I said why did it sound so familiar.

The other one I have never seen is very handsome, and the body is also very shapely, which shows the results of years of exercise. He is about 1.7 meters tall and very tall. It's just a little strange to me that this woman is wearing light makeup, which is very rare in a female detective, which makes me not only curious about this woman.

Both were dressed in civilian clothes, and I could tell they were in a hurry. Subconsciously, I felt that there was something strange in this, and their purpose didn't seem to be like what they were shouting just now

"Is there anything you want me to do?" I asked patiently and pleasantly.

If it weren't for the presence of a woman I didn't know, I would never have been so polite to Wang Dazui. Looking for me to ask? Is it really so simple to use the two of them to come over early in the morning in civilian clothes? Wouldn't it be nice to make a phone call?

Wang Dazui is not a person who can hide, and now that he is pretending, I can tell at a glance that they are looking for me for something else.

"Didn't we say it, we want to find out the situation from you." Wang Dazui still wants to continue pretending.

"Okay, okay, let's just say what's going on with the two officers. You're not here to ask questions, but you're asking me for help, aren't you? In the end, I still "see" and reveal what I have seen.

I'm not in the mood to play dumb riddles with them right now, especially since it happened yesterday.

"Dr. Xiao is really amazing. It seems that our director did not lie to me. "That's when the woman spoke." That's right, we did have something to ask you for. ”

I said in my heart that sure enough, yesterday I only told Wang Dazui my mobile phone number. The fact that they were able to find my place in just one night means that things must not be easy. I'm not a local, and the survey of the floating population without a hukou is not so simple.

And this woman's face was already full of distrust, she just wanted to test if I was really that bad at cheating. This made my first impression of her not very good, and it is not a good habit to test people casually.

"Now that you're here, come in and do it. I'm sorry I don't have anything to entertain here, don't mind if you have a glass of water? "I let the door open and let them in.

"It's okay, we've had breakfast." The policewoman said indifferently.

I stared straight at the policewoman. Her voice was characteristic, with a hint of softness in her fortitude, and I always felt like I had heard it somewhere.

She didn't pay any attention to my gaze, and in the hallway she naturally took off her high heels, revealing her sturdy calves. I think she should be very conscious of her body type, and she should be very fond of fitness. But it will not increase its muscles indiscriminately, and this perfect ratio will never be achieved without rigorous calculations.

I realized that on such a cold day, she was wearing a thin white dress with black ground leggings. Isn't this guy not afraid of the cold at all? And the policewoman wears high heels, I always feel that the picture is very inconsistent.

"Don't you have slippers for your guests here?" She turned back to me and asked.

"Unfortunately, I don't have many guests here, and I only wear a pair of slippers. Miss police officer doesn't have to change her shoes, I don't have so many rules here. "I'm telling the truth.

"It's okay! It's okay! I just saw a supermarket downstairs and I'm going to buy it, Team Chen, you just wait inside. Seeing this, Wang Dazui immediately proposed.

Team Chen? This woman is not an ordinary policeman?

"You kid give me attention!" As he passed by me, Wang Dazui whispered in my ear. "Her name is Chen Xue, she is the captain of our criminal investigation team, and she has solved more cases than any patient you have ever seen! It's not something that outsiders like you can afford to provoke! ”

With that, he tapped me on the shoulder, opened the door and went downstairs.

I said, "Tell me what you're here for." Otherwise, how can I deal with this big guy in it? Do you treat her like a patient? She was the brightest color I'd ever seen in the city, and the "red" almost hit my eyes

No way, I had to come by myself without giving me a hint. After sending Wang Dazui out, I went to the kitchen to pick up two cups of hot water, and when I came to the living room, I found that Chen Xue was already sitting peacefully on the sofa, playing with her hair.

Once again, I wondered, was she really a criminal police team leader? No matter how I look at it, it's like a pretend

"Captain Chen, give you hot water to warm your body, it's been raining for the past two days, and it's not good to be freezing." I put one of the cups of water on the coffee table.

"It seems that you already know who I am from Wang Keqiang?" Chen Xue picked up the cup on the coffee table and took a sip and immediately put it back.

After watching her move, I was completely sure that everything before was disguised. Although she is about the same age as me, she is indeed a seasoned detective. I have to say that the series of movements just now was really perfect, and I almost believed that she was such a woman.

But again, as I said before, everyone in front of me is a two-dimensional mesh plan, and this intersection of details can reflect a person's state of mind.

But Chen Xue's voice and her actions just now are several straight lines on two planes on different planes. Some have intersections, some don't, and this is where the sense of disobedience comes from.

The first is how she dresses, which is indeed very much like the dress of a little girl who loves beauty, and she seems to be used to dresses as well. But there is a decisive difference between the habits that are trained and the habits that are developed in life. She took off her two heels in almost the same way, and stood firm without a hint of shaking. No girl is so used to high heels, not even a professional step model. It's clear that she's trained to wear skirts and heels.

This is followed by two actions after she enters the door, the first of which is to look for slippers. This seems to be a habit of loving cleanliness, and it is very girly. But I could see a little hesitation in her expression, a psychological resistance. The reason is simple, it's a single man's rented apartment, even though I prefer to clean it. It's also very abnormal for a girl like her to take off her shoes here, which is definitely self-defeating.

And the second action, drink water. The cup I picked up for water was not an ordinary glass, but a purple sand teacup that I found at the thrift market. I don't know if it's genuine, but the workmanship is still very delicate, and I especially like the small handle. When I put the cup down, I deliberately let the handle of the cup object to her, and in the end she turned the cup around as I expected. I haven't used that cup much since I bought it, and it's honestly dirty. I brought it without washing at all, but she still took a small sip. This shows that she is a very cultured person, and the "kindness" of the owner cannot be ignored.

Finally, the words she said when she actually came in, honestly full of provocation, which seriously contradicted her unconscious movements after she came in. I am a person who believes in people's unintentional words and subconscious small actions more than superficial words and actions. These things can reflect what kind of person a person is and what he wants to write at this time.

And her own voice is also very distinctive, and then I remembered that she should be the policeman who shouted at the suicide scene yesterday. She was supposed to be a serious, somewhat conservative, well-educated woman in her own right. More like her overalls than her uniform, skirt and heels, I think she definitely worked as a low-level scout before becoming the captain.

The city is chaotic and full of crimes. Bars and nightclubs are always the focus of attention, and those places are simply excellent breeding grounds for these viruses. Chen Xue herself is very beautiful, with a good figure and very tall, and she had no problem being an undercover agent in the past, which also explains her skillful unloading of shoes like a soldier holding a gun.

It seems that this morning is really an unquiet morning, and there is such a big man in the family. I sighed inwardly.
