doctor is cold

"Lin Ru..."

"Have you told Officer Li?"

"Ah."

Zheng Xi responded with a muffled voice, half leaning against the door, watching Yin Linru who was busy in the kitchen.

"I don't understand." You obviously know so much, why don't you tell Li Jingan yourself?Zheng Xi had many questions in his heart.She has always known that she has no talent for handling cases, so she finds it a little miraculous that Yin Linru can analyze so many things from the information she doesn't know. On the other hand, she also finds it strange that why Lin What if he had to tell Li Jingan by himself?

"I will always understand." Yin Linru said.

Zheng Xi pursed her lips, turned around and went back to the sofa to sit down.

Again.she thought sullenly.Obviously the person involved in the case is herself, but it is the person in the kitchen who knows more. This feeling makes her feel powerless, especially, the other party always pretends to be good for her and refuses to say more , even if it is - even if it is an emotional matter!

Yes, yes, I really don't have much experience, but I'm not really that stupid, I can't even tell the difference between liking and dependence.

"Is there anyone missing from the police station recently?"

"what?"

Zheng Xi snapped back to her senses, Yin Linru was standing at the dining table with a plate of dishes looking at her, and she realized that she was distracted just now.

"I asked you if there are any missing people in the police station recently."

"Fewer people? I haven't heard of it."

"yes."

"what happened?"

"It's nothing, maybe I was thinking wrong." Yin Linru continued his movements, put the plate in place, turned around and asked Zheng Xi to come over for dinner, but seeing her staring at him intently, he was stunned and responded. He came over and said, "I always feel that there must be an inner ghost after so many things have happened in the police station recently. After doing so many small tricks, if you don't run away quickly, you will be caught sooner or later."

Zheng Xi looked at Yin Linru for a long time, and she was sure that she was telling the truth, and her heart was even more sad: I really am not suitable to be a detective at all?

"Come and eat."

"Oh."

"Let you eat and watch what I do."

He was eating well, but he couldn't avoid the scorching gaze of the people around him, which made Yin Linru feel a little uncomfortable.

"Look what's wrong, it won't lose a piece of meat." Zheng Xi muttered, but lowered his head and started eating.

******

Just as Yin Linru guessed, there were indeed fewer police officers, but not one, but two.

A man and a woman, the man's name is Wu An, and the woman's name is Yi Qing.

When Zheng Xi knew this, his face turned pale, and he almost knocked against the wall, but was hugged firmly by Yin Linru.Yin Linru looked coldly at Shen Xiangqi who came to report to them, and many questions flashed in his heart.She turned slightly sideways, blocking Shen Xiangqi's view of Zheng Xi.

"Ah Ru, can I talk to you alone."

Shen Xiangqi was not in the tone of discussing and asking, Yin Linru only thought for a few seconds, then nodded lightly, and Shen Xiangqi turned around and left.

Yin Linru helped Zheng Xi back to the room, and told her: "Don't come out."

Zheng Xi wanted to ask a lot, but when the words came to her lips, she just nodded strangely and didn't say a word. She suddenly realized that there seemed to be something wrong.

Shen Xiangqi leaned against the wall by the door, lit a cigarette, held it between his index and middle fingers, watched the smoke slowly drifting from the cigarette butt, and was still, not knowing what he was thinking.

"When did you start smoking?" Yin Linru asked, closing the door and leaning on the other side.

"I don't smoke." Shen Xiangqi said, loosened his fingers, and the cigarette fell to the ground. He stepped on it lightly and crushed it.

Yin Linru was silent.

"You and that woman..." Shen Xiangqi hesitated to speak.

"Why, even Shen Dong is gossiping."

Shen Xiangqi was still the president at this time, and he was not in the board of directors, but Yin Linru called him that on purpose, implying that he imprisoned his father.

But Shen Xiangqi didn't care about this, he just said slowly, "I'm just curious, what would she think of you if she knew the truth back then?" His tone was full of curiosity, as if he really cared.

Yin Linru seemed to be hit on a sore point, but she laughed the next second: "I don't know what happened to me at the beginning, do I?"

"Really, I probably misremembered it." Shen Xiangqi said, took two steps forward, then backed up, and stood in front of Yin Linru, "Remember to clean up well."

Yin Linru pursed his lips tightly, looked at Shen Xiangqi's back, gradually walked away, and finally disappeared at the corner of the corridor, leaving only the faint sound of footsteps approaching and far away in his ears.

She finally breathed a sigh of relief, and looked down at the cigarette butts on the ground. After a long time, she took out the handkerchief from her pocket and picked up the cigarette butts.

However, as soon as the door opened, Yin Linru picked up the heart that had just been let go.

Zheng Xi was looking at her seriously, Yin Linru didn't know how much and what she heard from the conversation just now.

"you......"

"What did that person mean? What's the truth?"

Yin Linru smiled wryly. She finally understood what Shen Xiangqi's last meaningful look meant, and she also understood what he meant by telling her to clean up. He never intended to let Zheng Xi go, nor did he I plan to let myself go.

Right now, choices don't matter.

Yin Linru didn't want to tell Zheng Xi that much, she was afraid that she would lose her for the things she could deduce now.Although as she said to Shen Xiangqi, that matter had nothing to do with her, but she knew in her heart that her relationship with Shen Xiangqi made her unable to get rid of this matter, at least for Zheng Xi.Therefore, what she said was just a promise to Shen Xiangqi that she would pretend that it didn't happen and not tell anyone.At least, this would temporarily prevent Shen Xiangqi from turning his attention to Zheng Xi, she thought.

However, it is counterproductive.

Yin Linru couldn't guess why Shen Xiangqi changed his original intention.

Just as she couldn't guess why Shen Xiangqi wanted Zheng Xi to know the truth, he seemed to have never treated anyone like this before.

"Go back." Yin Linru said.

"Lin Ru—"

"I'll tell you." Yin Linru said again, "If you're sure you want to know."

Zheng Xi lowered her eyes, she knew that she was embarrassing Yin Linru, but she couldn't control so much, the truth, what was the truth that she had missed for so long?

Yin Linru pulled Zheng Xi to sit down on the sofa, and then slowly said:

"All I can tell you is my reasoning. The only thing I can be sure of is one thing."

"what?"

"Remember that story I told you before?"

Zheng Xi nodded.

"Then let me tell you about the rest today." Yin Linru said, "I only talked about the orphanage last time."

"En." Zheng Xi's heart tightened.

"While I continued to live as if I didn't know anything, I was studying hard at the same time. I knew very well that that was my only way out. However, because of those things, I had a very strong, let's call it 'Cleanliness', I have a very strong cleanliness, and I avoid the students around me, which makes me fall into a state of isolation. Don't look at me like that, I don't think it's so bad."

Zheng Xi's eyes started to turn red, she choked up and said, "I'm sorry, I don't know..."

"If you can still say this to me later, then..." Yin Linru sighed, and continued, "I don't think there is anything wrong with being isolated, it seems that more troublesome things Realizing that I can't take touch, and they're always teasing me, it put me in a state of malnutrition, you know, throwing up."

"And then, he showed up."

"Shen Xiangqi, his external conditions can be summed up simply as the heroine of Mary Su's novel. In fact, I also know that he is curious about me."

"What kind of curiosity?" Zheng Xi couldn't help asking.

"Curiosity about the same kind." Yin Linru said, explaining in Zheng Xi's puzzled eyes, "Of course, he thought I was his kind. But, I didn't know what kind of person he was at that time." people."

"In short, the appearance of Shen Xiangqi made me feel that I was not completely isolated and helpless, and at that time, my protective cover was not so strict. I admit that he once gave me a sense of security based on other people's A sense of security over a sense of crisis.”

"you like him?"

"I've said it before, I don't like him." Yin Linru said, "I can't like... a man."

"That, that..."

"But Shen Xiangqi disappeared, and disappeared for a whole ten years." Yin Linru ignored Zheng Xi's cautiousness, and immediately said something that made her heart stop, "And before that, a very bloody case happened !"

"You mean—you—"

"The next thing I know is nothing more than my reasoning. I deduce it from some information I know about the case, my conversation with Shen Xiangqi, and previous understanding. The only thing I can be sure of is one thing." Yin Linru said to himself.

"Shen Xiangqi is the real murderer, isn't he?" Zheng Xi almost gritted his teeth and said this.

Yin Linru felt a little distressed, but she could only nod her head.

Suddenly, Zheng Xi stood up.

"What are you going to do?!" Yin Linru quickly pulled her back.

"I already know who the murderer is, how can I just sit like this?" Zheng Xi said, his eyes were full of coldness, "I'm going to tell Li Jing'an!"

"You can't go!" Yin Linru said, "I told you, we don't have evidence, so even if you go, it's useless and you'll only hurt yourself!"

"Then use me as bait! Anyway, I'm alone, if I die, I will die—"

The two were in a stalemate, Zheng Xi struggled desperately, wanted to rush out and fight Shen Xiangqi to the death, Yin Linru desperately pulled her behind, but Zheng Xi, who was in a daze, was surprisingly strong, Yin Linru In desperation, he had no choice but to hit Zheng Xi on the back of the neck with a knife.

Zheng Xideng fell limp and fell into Yin Linru's arms.

"How can you die, you are going to die, why should I spend so much effort today, it would be better..."
