As night fell, a white light flashed in the sky, and a muffled thunder sounded, followed by rain pouring down.

The bean-sized rain particles slapped heavily on the car window like broken steel balls. Duan Qingwei and Zhang Di braved the rain to drive to Xie Yunting's residence.

Duan Qingwei's mood at this time was depressed. He sat in the passenger seat, leaning against the window, looking out the window at the hazy night scene.

He opened the window a little and let the quiet air from the rain whizz in through the cracks in the window, which calmed his mind.

He looked at his blurred face reflected in the car window, he couldn't calculate how the time that had been spent over the years had been exhausted little by little, after experiencing those people and those things, it was not only his face that had changed, but also his whole person becoming extremely rough and tough.

Zhang Di glanced at Duan Qingwei in the co-pilot's seat, he noticed that Duan Qingwei was in an unusually low mood today, the whole person was listless, and he talked a lot less than usual, so he was very conscious that he didn't talk to Duan Qingwei.

At this time, the rain was getting heavier and heavier, and the raindrops that penetrated into the co-pilot's window were also wet with the cool breeze, making him feel a chill, but he still didn't propose to let Duan Qingwei close the window, he didn't want to disturb Duan Qingwei's moment of being alone.

When Duan Qingwei and Zhang Di arrived at Xie Yunting's residence, it was Xie Yunting's mother who opened the door.

They made their intentions known, and Xie Yunting's mother beckoned them to sit in the house.

Xie Yunting's mother only turned on a yellow light at home.

On a rainy night, the house was quite dark.

Duan Qingwei carefully observed that Xie Yunting's mother had become quite emaciated after experiencing the tragic death of her daughter, and the whole person was more than ten years old in an instant.

Duan Qingwei comforted: "Auntie, our police are highly concerned about this matter and will definitely do our best to arrest the murderer." ”

He looked around for a moment and continued to ask, "Auntie, I want to ask you, did your daughter leave you anything important before?" Or is there anything she mentioned to you that is very important? ”

Xie Yunting's mother pondered for a moment, suddenly sat up, and exclaimed, "It's really there!" I'll find you here! ”

Then, she walked to Xie Yunting's bedroom, opened a desk drawer, and took out a notebook and a bank card.

"I used to come to her house very rarely, and I only came to see her occasionally. That's what she used to say to me that was very important, and she said that the bank card was left for me, and that the money was in it...... I can pick up the ...... at any time Who knows...... My hard-working daughter ......" After speaking, Xie Yunting's mother began to cry again, wiping the tears on her face with her hands.

Duan Qingwei took the notebook, he opened the notebook, and found that the names of those famous entrepreneurs in Linnan City were recorded on it, arranged in order, and there were different years, months, days, times and numbers marked next to it.

These numbers are suspected to be the number of times......

Duan Qingwei and Zhang Di glanced at each other.

They realized that what Xie Yunting's notebook recorded might not be simple.

Xie Yunting's mother agreed that they would take the notebook and write down the card number of the bank card for the investigation.

Before Duan Qingwei and Zhang Di left, they left a phone number for Xie Yunting's mother, so that they could contact at any time if they had something in the future.

When they got on the elevator and went downstairs, Zhang Di muttered to himself: "Now the rest of Xie Yunting's body parts have not been found, and there is no clue to the murderer...... Yes, we're busy. ”

"Okay, don't complain, otherwise what else can you do, you can only do your best." Duan Qingwei's tone was obviously a little anxious.

When they got out of the unit, the rain stopped.

Duan Qingwei and Zhang Di walked out of the community one after the other, the rain on the ground splashed their trouser legs from time to time, Duan Qingwei passed by Huang Renxuan's unit downstairs, and he stopped.

Zhang Di looked back at Duan Qingwei suspiciously, only to see Duan Qingwei looking upstairs in the unit building in a daze.

"Brother, do you have something?"

Duan Qingwei came back to his senses, he showed an unnatural expression, scratched his head and said; "I'm sorry, Xiao Zhang, you can drive back by yourself first, I have something to do, I'll go back to the police station soon."

Zhang Di glanced at Duan Qingwei thoughtfully, said a meaningful "um", and then said, "Okay, then I'll go back first." ”

Duan Qingwei saw that Zhang Di was far away, he took out his mobile phone, opened WeChat, his finger stopped on Huang Renxuan's WeChat dialog box, hesitated for a while, he clicked on his friend to add verification, and entered a sentence: I am now downstairs in your unit, I want to see you.

Duan Qingwei looked at this deep night, the night sky was twilight, there were only sporadic street lamps around, except for the ticking sound after the rain and the blowing of the branches next to him, there was silence around, and he quietly lit a cigarette.

Huang Renxuan came out of the shower, wearing a nightdress, and her hair was wrapped in an absorbent hair dryer, she walked to the bedroom and saw that the screen of the mobile phone on the bed was on, she opened the phone and saw that Duan Qingwei sent a WeChat friend to add, and told her that he was waiting for her downstairs.

She was stunned, she thought that she hadn't seen the information before taking a shower just now, she had been taking a shower for almost half an hour, and she didn't know if Duan Qingwei would wait for her downstairs.

She didn't think much of it, so she hurriedly put on a black T-shirt and sports shorts, stepped on flip-flops and went out.

When Huang Renxuan came downstairs to the unit, she hurriedly looked around and saw a little firelight flickering not far away.

She walked in quietly and saw Duan Qingwei standing under the street lamp smoking.

Duan Qingwei's back is more like a lonely knight in the dark night, Huang Renxuan sees it in her eyes, but she hides her tears and sadness with extreme restraint - she gradually approaches Duan Qingwei -

Duan Qingwei heard the movement and immediately pressed the cigarette butt on the lid of the trash can next to him to extinguish the cigarette.

He turned around and saw that it was Huang Renxuan, his originally lonely expression instantly revealed a slight joy, and said, "You are here." ”

Huang Renxuan said softly, and then said, "When did you learn to smoke?" I was just taking a shower and didn't hear from you. Have you waited a long time? ”

"Didn't wait long...... I want to think about it...... I learned to smoke all these years after you left Linnan City, whenever I was upset, I smoked, but fortunately, I didn't have a craving for smoking. ”

Duan Qingwei approached Huang Renxuan, saw her half-wet hair, gently brushed her hair, and said, "Your hair hasn't dried yet, just come out and blow the wind, be careful of catching a cold." Go back, it's enough for me to see you, I'll go back to the police station first, I guess I'll have to work overtime at night. ”

Huang Renxuan thought about deleting Duan Qingwei's WeChat today, he didn't say a word about it, but he still cared about her as usual - this feeling was like he was trying to carefully maintain contact with himself - for fear of doing something wrong again.

Huang Renxuan's heart ached faintly, but she still smiled at Duan Qingwei and said, "Since you have to work overtime, do you like to drink coffee?" Want to go sit with me? I'm no worse at making coffee than any coffee shop outside. ”

Duan Qingwei heard Huang Renxuan's active words, his heart suddenly warmed up, overflowing, it seemed that the person who thought about it day and night seemed to give him hope, his expression was surprised and happy, his tone trembled slightly, and said: "I still have time to drink a cup of coffee." ”
