The office was filled with smoke, pinching out a cigarette butt between his fingers, and he couldn't close his eyes because the back of his head hurt.

The surveillance video on the computer kept repeating itself, and the documents on the table were messed up, and Zhao Guoying rubbed his forehead, trying to relieve the fatigue and headache of the past few days.

But because of the wrong kneading of the doctor's buttocks, the symptoms were not alleviated at all, and the back of the head became more uncomfortable.

The sensational "nephew murder of uncle" case was all on his shoulders, public opinion was flying all over the sky, there were all kinds of speculations, and the pressure from the higher authorities was very great to ask him to solve the case as soon as possible and give the public an explanation.

The suspect insisted that he did not hit his uncle, but the time of his uncle's death and the time of his departure were too coincidental, unless he really killed his uncle, someone deliberately followed him and found the right time to do it after the suspect was gone.

But this speculation requires evidence, and there is no evidence that the uncle has seen anyone else after the suspect left.

Tomorrow, the police officer from the original place of residence will come to raise the person, and this case cannot be presided over by him, and it will become the first unsolved case handed over from him, and it may become the failure of his life.

The more Zhao Guoying thought about it, the more annoyed he became, and he picked up the teacup on the table, but the entrance was cold and strong tea, which was difficult to swallow.

I didn't want to change the tea, so I got up and wanted to pour myself some more hot water, but when I walked through the window, I saw someone outside the window.

In his office on the second floor, the window was facing the gate of the police station, and he saw that the iron door of the gate had been closed, and a figure was sitting on the edge of the road outside the gate, holding himself with his head down.

He knew her, and they had only met the previous week.

Zhao Guoying remembered that his younger brother was admitted to the National University before, and he didn't send him off because he had a mission, and after her mother came back, she pulled him to show him a photo, saying that he was full of daughters-in-law.

He didn't look at it twice, he was too thin, the dark circles under his eye sockets were very heavy, the clothes he wore were not worn by poor girls in the city, and the hem of his T-shirt was worn out with several holes, like the drug dealers he usually caught in drug arrests.

His mother beat him up and scolded, "You deserve that you can't please your wife!" As the saying goes, 'If you want to ask whether the family is rich or not, it depends on whether your wife is fat or not', with the money you usually earn, buy her two more clothes and eat two more bowls of rice, can she be so thin?! ”

"Catch criminals day by day, catch the brains of Watt, see who wants to be caught in the trial! Why don't you try yourself?! Unfilial! ”

His mother scolded and scolded, and after scolding, he was still angry, and turned around and scolded his father who was watching the Anti-Japanese War TV series next to him: "Look! See! See! You're not going to be able to do it either! Your son can't marry a wife now, and you have half of the credit! From childhood to adulthood, I took him to watch police and bandit anti-war movies every day, you died in battle and reincarnated in your last life?! ”

"Now it's okay, the joke next door doesn't have grandchildren!!"

"I can't make it!! There are three men in a family, and none of them are reliable!! "From scolding to crying and grabbing the ground, there is no acting skills, all feelings.

Zhao Guoying was afraid of her and asked for this girl's phone, and every day he was urged by his mother to ask if he had any contact, God knows that he had forgotten about it.

I was free last week, so I remembered to call and contact.

After eating a meal, Zhao Guoying had a preliminary change in her opinion, she is not so bad, she is more worn because she is not afraid of getting dirty when she wants to paint, on the contrary, she is strong and flexible, and has nothing to do with her appearance.

For the first time, Zhao Guoying felt that being so thin that she could lose her image could also be a sense of beauty.

"Boss? Haven't been home yet? I'll pick up someone from there tomorrow, so let's go home and rest. Xiao Li, who followed him outside the door to handle the case, knocked on the door and came in and persuaded him to go back to rest.

The case was investigated by the suspect's place of residence, and they have now done their best to hand over the murderer if they can't find it.

"Boss, I have to go through the handover procedures with that side tomorrow, why don't you go back and take a shower, or ......" Xiao Li didn't say anything, covered his nose and fanned him, signaling that he didn't smell good now.

Since this case happened, the leader has been analyzing the data tirelessly to find flaws, either smoking or drinking tea, and he has made these two things pickle.

He can't smell any of his acquaintances, let alone see someone tomorrow.

Zhao Guoying looked at the figure outside the door, she was weak and about to fall to the ground at any time. Finally sighed, put the teacup down, picked up his coat, and walked outside.

……

Meng Xiaoshou was in a daze outside the police station, Meng Xun had been in for a long time, he was a suspect, they didn't let her see him, she had no choice but to sit here and wait.

What are you waiting for?

Meng Xiao didn't know that the door of the National University was closed, and she was not allowed to go in to see Meng Xun's instructor at all, and the guards of the police station saw her at the door, staring at her with a baton, as if she was a thug who was about to riot at any time.

She had nowhere to go, so she had to sit and wait.

Meng Xun was inside, this was the closest place she and Meng Xun were close to, and she didn't want to go anywhere except here.

The automatic door behind him slowly opened, and the sound of a car came from inside, honking at the gate, Meng Xiao immediately got up to make way for the car.

A little farther away from the gate, before she could sit down, the black jeep stopped in front of Meng Xiao, the window was lowered, and the person inside said, "Meng Xiao, come up." ”

The voice had a bit of a commanding tone, but it was very familiar, and Meng Xiao looked up to Zhao Guoying.

"It's useless for you to wait here, come up." Zhao Guoying said calmly, thinking about how persistent she was, so she said, "I'll take you to see Meng Xun tomorrow." ”

Meng Xiao, who originally wanted to refuse, heard that he could see Meng Xun, and immediately opened the door obediently and got into the car.

The jeep started, and Zhao Guoying mixed the car into the traffic and asked, "Where do you live?" I'll send you back. ”

Meng Xiao did not resist, said his address, the jeep drove all the way to the old community, Zhao Guoying stopped and got out of the car with Meng Xiao, and said: "Let's go, go up and see Meng Xun's things, maybe there will be new discoveries." ”

From the case to the present, because there are not many suspicions, Meng Xun has basically been convicted, so they have never come to Meng Xun's house to investigate, this time by the way to see if there are any new discoveries.

The two of them entered the room, the old house was not large, but the daily necessities were complete, Meng Xiao pointed out Meng Xun's room to Zhao Guoying, and went into the kitchen himself without disturbing him to handle the case.

Zhao Guoying walked around Meng Xun's room a few times, Meng Xun didn't have many things, there was a family photo at the head of the bed, the father was holding the girl, the mother was holding the boy, the family looked harmonious, who would have thought that they were not sisters and brothers.

The mobile phone rang, and it was his younger brother Zhao Guoqing who sent him WeChat.

"Brother, Meng Xun will not kill his uncle, the first few times his uncle came to make trouble, Meng Xun never hated his uncle." Zhao Guoqing and Meng Xun were in a dormitory, and they knew everything about Meng Xun, and it was impossible for him to kill his uncle.

Zhao Guoying didn't reply, whether he hated it at the beginning and whether he killed it later had nothing to do with it, and there were many people who tried to kill people temporarily, so these are basically equivalent to nonsense.

Pick up your phone and walk out of the bedroom, smelling the scent wafting from the kitchen.

She turned her back to him, tied up a ball in her hair, tied an apron and was busy in front of the stove, turned around and saw Zhao Guoying, and smiled embarrassedly: "I'm sorry, Officer Zhao, there is nothing else at home, do you eat noodles?" ”

Meng Xun had an accident, and she was not in the mood to buy vegetables, so she could only use ready-made things to cook a light meal to entertain him.

Zhao Guoying wanted to refuse, but when she saw the smooth dough kneaded on her board, each noodle was evenly wide and narrow by her own hand, not fresh noodles bought ready-made outside, and she took it back and cooked it.

"The taste is a little stronger, thank you." This kind of meal is only made when his mother is occasionally in the mood, Zhao Guoying's depression in his throat and eyes did not dissipate, and he sat at the dining table and watched her knead the dough.

"Okay, you'll have to wait." Meng Xiao said with a smile, and then remembered something, washed the flour on his hands, walked into Meng Xun's room, and after a while, he came out with a few clothes, and said to Zhao Guoying: "If you don't dislike it, this is the clothes that my brother didn't wear, you can go and wash them." ”

Suddenly let someone who is not familiar with it take a bath, the meaning is a little ambiguous, but Zhao Guoying really doesn't smell good, plus the summer in SH City, people are easy to sweat when they move, and he is definitely not comfortable.

Zhao Guoying remembered that just now Xiao Li said that he smelled bad, and when he went back from overtime in the past, he was always scolded by his own mother for "being fished out of the manure pit", and it was estimated that he would not be clean now.

So you're welcome, pick up your clothes and wash them.

"Is this the only bathroom?" The old house only had one bathroom, so he asked first so as not to be embarrassed to wait for a while.

Meng Xiao nodded, and went in before him to pack up her things briefly, saving him from seeing the inconvenience, and pointed out to him the things that Meng Xun used.

Zhao Guoying went into the bathroom, Meng Xiao was cooking in the kitchen, and when he came out, he was wearing Meng Xun's big shorts and wide T-shirt, only to see that the police uniform and underwear he wore were washed and hung on the balcony, including his stinky socks, of course.

Based on his impression of a girl in her early twenties, even if she is not so delicate that her fingers do not touch the spring water, she will not dislike the stinky clothes that men change into.

And Meng Xiao didn't feel uncomfortable at all after seeing him come out, and said with a smile: "It's just right, the rice is just right, can you try the taste?" ”

A bowl of oily noodles, a small pot of cucumbers mixed with shredded green peppers, the taste is sour and spicy, and it is a taste that cannot be eaten in restaurants.

Zhao Guoying was very popular, after eating the noodles and dishes, he got up and brought the bowl to the kitchen to wash it, only to come out and see Meng Xiao sitting on the sofa.

Zhao Guoying felt a little cold in his heart, washed his clothes so that he couldn't leave, and now he was still waiting for him in the living room so late, could it be that he still wanted to follow him down the crooked path, and then use this to blackmail him to save her brother?

If she really dares to do this, then even she will be arrested and tried for trial.

"That, I will be able to do your clothes tomorrow after washing them, I will be in Meng Xun's room today, and I will go to the police station with you tomorrow." Meng Xiao privately wanted to keep Zhao Guoying, but she didn't want to leave the crooked door, she just couldn't find anyone to help her, she was afraid that Zhao Guoying would leave, and she would have nowhere to find someone, so she made this decision.

Now Zhao Guoying is her last straw, and she can't be too far away from him.

"Don't worry, I won't do anything to you, I just want to see my brother." She didn't hide her intentions either, and told him directly.

Zhao Guoying had interrogated countless cunning prisoners, and in the face of Meng Xiao's sincerity, she could see at a glance that she was not lying, and nodded and went to Meng Xun's room to rest.

Tomorrow, Officer Chen over there will come over to do the handover, and when Meng Xun gets in the car, he can let her meet.
