case-in-case

In the evening, when the lights are on, it is quiet and peaceful.

In the Japanese restaurant near the school, the Chinese Three Musketeers and Ren have already arrived, sitting in dining chairs, eagerly looking forward to tonight's heroine Shimizu Reina's appearance--they are all a little hungry, but they have not been seen at the door of the restaurant The expected heroine figure.

Ouyang Le looked at the door for the nth time and saw no one, then asked Lang Fei: "What time did you make an appointment with Lianai?"

Lang Fei looked at his phone and said, "Seven o'clock!" But it's already seven twenty!

Ouyang Le asked jokingly: "I'm late for the first date, sister Liannai won't think it's a shame to be your girlfriend, go back on it!"

Lang Fei said to Ouyang Le angrily: "I don't know how much Liannai likes me, how could I go back on it!"

Ryan has always disliked eating raw food. Many Japanese dishes are raw, so he came here reluctantly. However, Ryan was really hungry, and even if it was raw, he would admit it. Ryan asked Ouyang Le: "You Do you want to give Reina a call or let's order first?"

Lang Fei thought for a while, took out his mobile phone and called Shimizu Reina - he was actually hungry, and while calling, he wanted to remember to tell Reina that he should not be late for appointments in the future!

The phone kept beeping, indicating that it was unavailable. Lang Fei frowned and looked at his friends: "I can't get through!"

Ouyang Le comforted Lang Fei based on his previous experience: "Girls like to dress up on dates. Today is your first date and you are going to introduce her to us as a girlfriend. She must want to appear in the best condition. According to my past Based on my experience, girls are not sure how to dress up and try clothes, and when my girlfriend can't be impatient, Liannai will definitely make her debut in a while!"

Lang Fei leaned back in the chair incomprehensibly, thinking a little bit in his heart, he thought girls were a bit troublesome.

However, after more than 20 minutes, Shimizu Reina still hadn't arrived, and the friends were almost chatting awkwardly. They all felt that this Japanese girl was a bit unreliable——Shimizu Rena was so active in chasing Lang Fei before, but now Lang Fei is fine. It was easy to convince myself to agree to be her boyfriend, but on this first date, she was late for more than 40 minutes, and the phone still couldn't get through, which was a bit unreasonable!

Lang Fei frowned and called Shimizu Reina's cell phone several times, but they were always blind. Finally, Lang Fei couldn't help but became anxious.

Seeing his appearance, Jiang Jingtong had no choice but to persuade him: "Why don't you go back to school first?"

Lang Fei was angry: "No, let's order food and eat our own, she will come if she likes!"

Seeing that Lang Fei was already angry, Ouyang could only comfort him: "Maybe it's delayed by something, don't be angry!"

Lang Fei didn't respond, but called the waiter to order.

The friends saw that Lang Fei's expression was really bad, and everyone was really hungry, so they didn't try to persuade them any more.

Seeing Lang Fei's stinky face, Jiang Jingtong thought that there must be a good reason for Shimizu Reina to come, otherwise he would go crazy seeing Lang Fei's face!

Then, until everyone finished eating the tasteless Japanese food, Reina Shimizu still didn't show up, and she didn't even make a phone call!

Although the friends are not very familiar with Shimizu Rena, the girl really doesn't seem to be such an unreliable person on weekdays. They don't know what's going on with Reina, but Lang Fei is their friend. Li Zi couldn't hold back, so everyone tried to talk about other topics to resolve his embarrassment.

After the meal, the friends left the restaurant and went to school together.

The food shop is not far from the school. Along the way, Lang Fei was full of energy, and everyone was not playing around like in the past, and the atmosphere was a bit boring.

When approaching the school gate, suddenly there was a police car honking from the main road opposite the school, and several police cars roared and drove into the school.

The hearts of the friends trembled-every time the siren sounds, nothing good happens. A while ago, there was a kidnapping and an explosion. The police car was dispatched this night, so something happened again. Everyone looked at each other and quickened their pace. Want to see what the hell is going on!

Ouyang Le walked quickly and asked Lang Fei: "You want to watch the fun too? Don't go to Liannai!"

Lang Fei got angry and said seriously: "I'm very angry when she missed the appointment, wait for her to explain to me!"

Ouyang Le shook his head, looking at the awkward Lang Fei, he kind of missed the occasional bickering with Karina!

The four friends followed the tail of the police car to the riverside of the school, where the police officers had set up a cordon, the street lights by the river were dimly lit, and some students had already surrounded the cordon.

The friends walked over curiously and asked what happened.

The onlookers said that another female corpse was found in the river just now, and it was the same as the female corpse not long ago. There may be a serial killer in the school!

Jiang Jingtong thought of Ai Pingping--the police have not announced the progress of the investigation of Ai Pingping's murder. Could it be that the murderer who killed Ai Pingping came out to commit crimes again?

The little friends watched from the perimeter of the cordon. After the police officers took pictures, they fished the female body out of the water and laid it flat on the shore.

At this moment, Lang Fei didn't know what he saw, and suddenly asked uncertainly, "Lianna?"

The friends were startled by his cry—is the deceased Liannai?

Jiang Jingtong asked Lang Fei even more nervously: "Did you see clearly? How do you know it's Liannai?" They were standing some distance away from the bank where the female body was found. The river was dark and the street lights on the bank were not on. From their position, they could only vaguely see the outline of the female corpse. How did Lang Fei recognize that the deceased was Liannai?

Lang Fei didn't answer, he jumped over the cordon and ran towards the female corpse. His friends were startled and followed.

The police immediately came to stop them.

Lang Fei was crazy and tried to break away from the police. Seeing that he was about to clash with the police, Jiang Jingtong and Lei En hurriedly held Lang Fei down. Lang Fei's eyes were tearing apart and he kept struggling.

Ouyang Le immediately communicated with the police, saying that the female corpse might be their acquaintance.

The police officers glanced at several people, especially seeing Lang Fei's excited expression, as if he knew the victim, one of the police officers said: "Don't rush around, I will take you to recognize it!" Afraid that he would be impulsive, he wanted to say something but didn't speak.

Several people followed the police officer carefully and approached the female corpse. The closer they got, the clearer the outline of the female corpse became, and the hearts of several people sank.

When he got close, Lang Fei almost rushed over, but was held back by Jiang Jingtong and Ren.

Lang Fei looked at Lianai lying on her back on the gravel-covered shore, her usually bright eyes were open, there was no light in her pupils, she was full of lifelessness, her face was pale, and there was a deep scar on her neck. Grim strangle marks.

Lang Fei closed his eyes, walked over for a few seconds, and when he opened them again, his eyes were already red. He took off his coat silently and was about to cover Lianai, but was stopped by the police—they were afraid of the flakes or fibers on Lang Fei's clothes Leave it on the corpse to mislead the investigation!

Seeing being blocked, Lang Fei yelled at the police angrily: "Then you guys cover her up—you...you just let her lie there naked like this?"

In fact, when the corpse was just picked up, the police officers were already taking pictures, and they would cover the corpse with a covering cloth as soon as the pictures were taken. It was only interrupted by Lang Fei's charge, but the police officers did not blame him-- Only those who have a direct relationship with the victim will care so much about the feelings of the deceased - it is understandable that they often handle cases!

The police quickly brought a veil to cover Reina Shimizu's body.

Lang Fei looked at Lianai's body, his eyes were almost cracked - his eyes were filled with pity, sadness and disbelief like a bottomless abyss.

Friends gathered around Lang Fei, everyone just confirmed that it was indeed Shimizu Rena!

A police officer asked Lang Fei: "You were standing so far away just now, how did you recognize the deceased?"

Lang Fei's eyes were still fixed on Lianai's body, he almost made a voice from the bottom of his throat: "The ring on Lianai's left hand..."

The police officer went over to lift a corner of the white cloth, revealing Shimizu Reina's left hand, and she wore a ring on her slender middle finger—the ring part should be K gold, with a diamond about 30 mm long and 20 wide inlaid on it. The oval-shaped transparent ring has an oval shape of [-] mm, and there are small red, yellow, and white flowers inside the ring. The policeman gently removed the ring and put it in the evidence bag for Lang Fei to identify.

Lang Fei's eyes slowly shifted from staring at Lianai's body to the ring in the policeman's hand, and said faintly: "Lianai said this is a very popular immortal flower ring in Japan..." Then he couldn't continue.

From such a long distance, although Lang Fei couldn't see the face of the corpse clearly due to the angle, Lang Fei saw the familiar ring with a special light reflected by the street light!

In the afternoon, when Lianai held Lang Fei's hand and kissed him on the cheek, Lang Fei saw this special ring. The ring was very unique and beautiful. The surface of the ring was oval and transparent, and inside were several beautiful flowers of three colors. , the ring surface seals the flowers inside like amber, delicate and beautiful.

At that time Lang Fei took Lianai's hand and carefully identified it. He couldn't see the material of the ring surface, so he asked curiously: "Liannai, your ring is very unique, what material is it made of? Are there flowers in the ring surface?"

Shimizu Reina smiled sweetly because Lang Fei held her hand at that time. She said: "This flower is called Preserved Fresh Flower - eternal flower, which refers to flowers that never fade. Dehydration, decolorization, drying, dyeing and a series of complex processes, it maintains the characteristics of flowers, and the color is richer, it first appeared in Germany in the 19th century, and has been sought after by high-class ladies in Europe and the United States since then.” Said, Lianai shook the eternal flower ring on her hand and asked Lang Fei: "Is it beautiful?"

Lang Fei looked at the ring of Immortal Flower which made Shimizu Reina's slender hands more white, so he nodded and said it was beautiful.

Lianai smiled and snuggled into Lang Fei's arms and said to him: "There is a beautiful love story about eternal flowers, do you want to listen to it?"

Lang Fei unskillfully tried to hug Lianai lightly and said, "Yes."

Lianai smiled: "It is said that a couple in love is about to part. The man needs to participate in the war to defend the motherland. This farewell is likely to be a farewell. The man left a bouquet of roses for his beloved girl. He said: When this bouquet When the last petal of the rose falls, if he hasn’t come back, please ask the girl to forget him and start a new life. After the man leaves, the girl puts the bouquet of roses in the vase, and prays for her lover’s safety every day...

Bloody news on the battlefield kept coming, and the roses in the vase were slowly dehydrated and dried up, but the girl never heard from her lover—but none of the petals in the vase fell.

After a few years like this, the man returned to the girl's house with accumulated scars. From then on, the two walked hand in hand and never separated.

Later, the story of the lovers spread.In Europe, as long as a boy and a girl fall in love, they will keep a bouquet of roses, or put the petals in the Bible, or make eternal flowers that never fade, in order to pray that they will be as happy and lucky as the lovers in the story until eternal.This is also the flower language of the eternal flower, which represents 'eternal love', 'eternal happiness' and 'beautiful eternity'. "

When Liannai was telling stories, her eyes were shining, Lang Fei felt that Liannai was as beautiful as an eternal flower, and Lianai's light voice was in his ears.

"If a boy sends a girl eternal life flowers on Valentine's Day, it is not only expressing love, but also expressing the promise of 'staying together forever'." As she said, Lianai blinked her big eyes and asked Lang Fei hopefully: "When will you Give me a bouquet of eternal flowers..."

The girl who was still smiling brightly in the afternoon, snuggling in his arms and telling him stories, is now a pale, cold, wet corpse—Lang Fei’s hands clenched into fists—he closed his eyes, “Who, kill, Oh, pity, nai?" Lang Fei's voice was suppressed, slow and hoarse, and the voice almost burst out from between his teeth.

The friends around him all looked at him worriedly.

-

Lianai's body has been taken away by the police. The police made a record of Lang Fei's questioning. Afterwards, the friends went back to Jiang Jingtong and Lang Fei's dormitory. Everyone sat around, no one spoke, and the atmosphere was stagnant.

When being questioned by the police, Lang Fei told the police that he and Liannai separated before five o'clock. Before they separated, he asked Liannai to have dinner at 7 o'clock, but she never came.

The police checked the surveillance cameras at the entrance of the girls' dormitory building, confirmed Lang Fei's words, made detailed records, and said that they would contact him if they had clues or needed inquiries. After that, the friends came back with Lang Fei.

From the time he came back to now, Lang Fei didn't say a word, and kept his face gloomy.

Ouyang Le was very worried. He was shocked and saddened when he heard the news of Karina's death a few days ago, but Karina's death was different from Liannai's death - Liannai was murdered - he was still doing Lang Fei Girlfriend today!

Seeing Lang Fei sitting there without talking, Ouyang Le didn't know how to comfort him, so he had to whisper to Jiang Jingtong, "Do you want me to buy some wine?"

Jiang Jingtong shook his head, and he asked Lang Fei directly: "What are you thinking?"

Lang Fei raised his eyes to look at him, his expression was shockingly calm: "I'm wondering who killed Lianai?"

You guys can't answer this question.

Jiang Jingtong thought for a while and said, "Could the person who killed Liannai be the person who killed Ai Pingping before?"

Ouyang Le thought about it for a while, and recalled: "Ai Pingping's case happened more than three weeks ago. The police did not announce the suspect and the progress of the investigation. That means the murderer was not found, and the kidnapping happened immediately. Maybe they did not How much attention has been paid to Ai Pingping's case, now Liannai..." Ouyang Le paused before saying: "It was also found in the river, and Liannai had no clothes on her body. Intuitively, the basic characteristics of the two cases are similar. Most likely the same murderer!"

Lang Fei's eyes slowly raised a trace of determination and ferocity: "Whoever killed Lianai, I will catch him!" Then, he looked around the three friends in the room and said, "Will you help me?"

The friends were stunned by the look in his eyes - Lang Fei has always been bright, optimistic, straightforward, and occasionally a little stubborn, but now his aura is very different from before, obviously he was greatly stimulated by Lianai's death.

Jiang Jingtong frowned slightly: "Lang Fei, we will help you, but you are not in the right mood now, you need to calm down!"

Lang Fei looked at Jiang Jingtong and asked gloomyly, "Lienai is dead, how can I stay calm?"

Jiang Jingtong said solemnly: "Liannai is not only your girlfriend, but also our alumni. If you want to find out the cause of her death, we will definitely help you, but you can't find the murderer in this state. The murderer depends on wisdom, not Fierce and bloodthirsty!"

Ren also agreed: "Lang Fei, just now you told the police that you separated from Lianai in front of the girls' dormitory before 5 o'clock, and it took more than 4 hours to find her body, just check the 4 hours Li Lianai's whereabouts are easier to find the murderer, and the investigation of the case is the job of the police, is it appropriate for you to track it down yourself?"

Lang Fei slowly looked at Ren: "Three weeks have passed since Ai Pingping's case, and the police haven't found the murderer yet. Will they go all out to investigate Lianai's case?"

Ren looked calmly: "Do you think we can find the murderer?"

Lang Fei said affirmatively: "As long as we think about it, we can do it. The kidnapping case was so complicated and we had to deal with it. There's no reason why we can't find out who killed Liannai!" Lang Fei's eyes seemed to be blood red as he spoke : "I want to ask the murderer, why did he kill Reina!"

Ouyang Le sighed, he could understand Lang Fei's mood, when he heard the news of Karina's death, he also wanted to tear the kidnappers into pieces, but the kidnappers were already dead, so he deserved what he deserved , can only get drunk to dissipate sadness, anger and depression.And Lang Fei just wanted to go all out to have a relationship with Liannai, and this happened to Liannai, Lang Fei may have been more stimulated than him, when he fell into sadness and couldn't extricate himself, his friends accompanied him to get drunk After a battle to heal his pain, now is the time for Lang Fei to need their help, so they can't be alone either!

Covering the worry in his eyes, Ouyang Le said to Lang Fei: "Lang Fei, if you want to investigate the murderer, we will definitely help you, but it's too late today, you need to rest well and recharge your energy before you can investigate the case. Classes only start this week, and we have plenty of time, what we have to do now is to rest first, and plan how to check tomorrow, okay?"

Lang Fei looked at Ouyang Le, and Ouyang Le's eyes were sincere.

Jiang Jingtong and Lei En also advised Lang Fei to take a good rest today, and they will find a way together tomorrow, and everyone promises to help him!

Looking at the sincere and worried eyes of his friends, Lang Fei felt a little better, and finally nodded and agreed to go to rest first.

The author has something to say: Author’s words: When writing this chapter, Xiaomi was complained by her friend Huihui Boyxie. He said, it’s very pitiful that Liannai died, and you let her die wearing a ring of eternal life flowers, too Cruel┭┮﹏┭┮.
