Netherworld Investigator

"Come to have lunch." Qiao Kejun called out in the living room and ordered, "Take Qiao Xin to eat at the uncle's and aunt's house tonight. I'm going out later. Remember to wash the dishes before going out. "

Wen Baifan lolled out of the room with his slippers on, and put them on his back like he had no bones, "What are you doing out there, do you know what day it is today?"

"On the fifth day of the new year, I'm not on duty today, am I?" Qiao Kejun tore him off his body and sat down on the edge of the dining table.

He turned around and went back to the kitchen, opened a small sauce jar and put out a plate of dried radish, which was pickled by Aunt Wen Baifan herself. It was salty, crispy, spicy and full of flavor.On the table are vegetable salads and fried noodles with shallots, sprinkled with a little sesame, this breakfast is full of color and flavor just by looking at it.

Wen Baifan touched his nose, and boasted, "I have trained you for so many days, it's not in vain, I really taught my apprentices to get fat, master."

"What day is today?" Qiao Kejun didn't get distracted by him. He took out his phone and glanced at the calendar, "February 2... Valentine's Day? Oh, then I'll come back early after dinner."

"Who did you date?" Wen Baifan's ear tip moved slightly, and asked him pretending not to care, "Male or female?"

Qiao Kejun scooped him a bowl of hot porridge: "Men."

Wen Baifan was relieved, but after thinking about it, the man seemed to be even more insecure, so he asked again: "Is that man bent straight?"

"Curved." Qiao Kejun stuffed the chopsticks into his hands.

Today is Valentine's Day. In order to live a two-person world, the cousin and his wife specially let Liangliang live in his grandparents' house.And Qiao Kejun actually wanted to abandon him to meet a man who was sexually male?

Wen Baifan lightly licked the tip of his chopsticks, and waved to Qiao Kejun, "Bring me some vinegar, I want to eat it."

With a bunch of cats in the hood, a dog in his left hand, and a child in his right hand, Wen Baifan walked into his aunt's house as if dragging his family.

As soon as he entered the door, Qiao Xin, who was being led by him, broke away from his hand with a huff, and went to play with Liangliang in the yard with the remote control car.The cat dexterously climbed down from him, and ran to the edge of the stone fish pond. Fanfan was untied of the rope, and chased after the cat's tail foolishly.

The lonely Wen Baifan smiled desolately against the wind.

Wen Qin narrowed her eyes and looked at him: "Are you free today?"

The implication is that Wen Baifan is very dissatisfied with not dating anyone on Valentine's Day.

"Mylover's gothumor. She's the giggleata funeral..."

The sudden ringing of the bell saved Wen Baifan who was speechless, and he quickly pressed the answer, "Ruyun?"

Hearing this address, Wen Qin's eyes lit up, and she looked at Wen Baifan with admiration and walked aside to answer the phone.

Wen Baifan ran all the way to the roof of the small villa, making sure that his aunt did not follow up to eavesdrop, and then shouted to the person on the other end of the phone in shock, "You and Wang Yu are on a blind date? You? Wang Yu? A blind date?"

Facing the four huge question marks if there were entities, Fu Ruyun sighed helplessly: "Calm down, I already have enough headaches, I'm six years older than him, I really don't know what's going on in their family I think, in short, things are very complicated, and in simple terms, it is like this..."

Fu Ruyun's father and Wang Yu's father were college classmates. They didn't have much contact with each other back then, but they both heard each other's name and admired each other.During the new year, Wang's father attended the class reunion after a long absence, and reunited with Fu's father, only to find out that the children of the two families used to work in the same unit.Fu's father married early and had children early, so Fu Ruyun is older than Wang Yu.After casually asking about Fu Ruyun's age and birthday, Father Wang paid attention.

It turned out that when Wang Yu was young, an expert made a fortune telling that he had to marry a girl of a certain date of birth in order to ensure a smooth life, otherwise, starting from the age of 23, he would meet a girl every year. Frustrations eventually wiped out the family business and so on.At the beginning, Father Wang naturally sneered at such strange things, but Mother Wang had the final say in the Wang family. I have always been thinking about it in my heart.

It wasn't until last year that Wang Yu lost his gun, which almost caused him to be fired from the police, and Wang's mother and her husband brought up the matter again.The time when the first hurdle happened was actually exactly the same as that expert calculated back then.Although it is not in line with the traditional concept that women are older and men are younger, today's society is so open and diverse that even two men or two women can be together, let alone a man and a woman.

The Wang family's parents figured it out. They must find a daughter-in-law for their son who can hold a golden brick.Unexpectedly, the daughter of an old classmate met Wang Yu's true destiny.

At the same time, the parents of the Fu family were also worried that their daughter was neither married nor in love when she was nearly [-] years old. Under the hard work of the couple, they still agreed to let Wang Yu and his daughter come out for a meal, to see if they could close their eyes.

In this way, at noon on Valentine's Day, Qiqi was tricked by her parents into a high-end restaurant.

Wen Baifan lay on the railing and was overjoyed: "And then?"

"The moment he and I saw each other, it was like seeing a ghost." Fu Ruyun said helplessly, "The two families also made an appointment to have dinner together in the evening, forcing us to go out to kill time alone in the afternoon, so Wang Yu So he took me to a video game city called Chunfeng Deyi on Xiaochun Road, and said that you took him there before."

"Oh, video game city, I think you two are making good progress." Wen Baifan teased an unknown plant.

"Don't think about it, we are all just to deal with our parents." Fu Ruyun continued, "After arriving at the video game city, it just so happened that the boss there personally gave out red envelopes to the employees on duty."

Wen Baifan said with a smile: "Tsk tsk, the old horse is really powerful. It seems that he has become richer and richer in the past few years. He was very stingy in the past. Seeing that we often pass customs with one coin, he is not willing to sell our game coins." We, of course, refer to Wen Baifan and Tang Xiaofeng. They used to go to this game hall on Xiaochun Road to pass the time since they were in college.

When the robbery case was lost last time, he and Wang Yu wanted to retrieve the surveillance video, and asked the boss Ma for help.Lao Ma is a man of righteousness, so of course he also has some intentions to make friends with public officials, so when Wen Baifan opened his mouth, he actively asked the people below to help.

Lao Ma has become much richer in the past few years, but he looks younger than before, and he walks vigorously. It's a pity that Wen Baifan is also busy, so he didn't have time to catch up with him.

"Yes, he still remembers Wang Yu and knows that he is your subordinate. Boss Ma invited the two of us to drink tea in his office. Unexpectedly, while chatting, we came across an old story." Fu Ruyun His tone changed, and he deliberately lowered his voice, "It's about Xiaofeng."

"From what he said, I found out that during the time when Zheng Youqiang was investigated, Xiaofeng didn't see anyone all day long. It turned out that he was squatting at the video game city. After Zheng Youqiang disappeared, that nightclub was demolished soon, but From the window on the second floor of the video game city, you can just see the entrance of the original nightclub. During that time, Xiaofeng got very close to a receptionist of the video game city, and not long after his accident, that receptionist also resigned and disappeared. "

"Front desk?" Wen Baifan tried his best to recall, and a tall girl with long hair vaguely appeared in his mind, but he couldn't remember her appearance anymore.

"Girl?" Fu Ruyun clicked his tongue twice, "That receptionist is not a girl, but a man who likes to dress up differently. Before the video game city was renovated, there was no distinction between men and women in the bathroom, and the working environment of the video game city was noisy. He rarely spoke, so no one found out his real identity. Boss Ma said that he appeared in men's clothing for the first time on the day he came to resign, which shocked everyone, so he had a special impression of this person .”

Wen Baifan pondered for a while, then asked: "What's the name of that person, does Lao Ma still remember?"

"I only remember the surname Ruan. Because he spoke in a soft voice at the time, everyone called him Ruanmeizi. The name is Chenhua, but I don't know which two words."

"Ruan Chenhua." Wen Baifan recited these three syllables over and over in his heart several times, making sure that he had no memory of this name at all.

Fu Ruyun added: "After the accident that year, they hurriedly closed the case while you were in a coma in the hospital, and then classified the case as a secret. We couldn't look up the information, let alone re-investigate. You know, these things I have been secretly trying to investigate for years, but have found nothing. This person named Ruan Chenhua may become an unprecedented breakthrough..."

Wen Baifan interrupted her, and said softly: "Xiaoyun, haven't you let go yet?"

Fu Ruyun was silent for a moment, and when she spoke again, the voice seemed to come from far away, with a hint of openness in her tone: "I don't know. Maybe only when the truth comes out, can I really get over this matter." Come out."

Seeing that Wen Baifan didn't intend to go out after a long phone call, and couldn't hide the disappointed expression on his face, Wen Qin raised her hand and sent him off to run errands and buy things.

After the fifth day of the new year, the number of people visiting my aunt's house to pay New Year's greetings began to decrease. My uncle had long been looking forward to the two children coming home to play with them.Liangliang was even more excited, clamoring to sleep with Qiao Xin tonight.

Wen Baifan called Qiao Kejun's phone, but it rang for a long time without answering. He sent a text message and asked if Qiao Xin could stay at his aunt's house for one night. The other party replied quickly: "Okay."

You have to put a full stop in writing "good", but you don't answer your phone?Wen Baifan felt a little annoyed immediately, but it was not easy to express any emotions in front of a family of old people and children.

Since we are going to stay overnight, we have to buy necessities such as towels and toothbrushes.Wen Qin instructed him: "Be careful with the things children use. The quality of the supermarket in the neighborhood is probably not very good. Anyway, you are free. Go to Xiaochun New City. There is a new big supermarket on the first floor."

After three o'clock in the afternoon, with nothing to do, Wen Baifan strolled to the shopping center, not in a hurry to buy anything, sat down at a chain coffee shop that was still open during the Spring Festival, and ordered a cup of instant cocoa milk and blueberry cheesecake, swiping the phone with a spoon in its mouth.

"Fei'er, you haven't heard anything about what I asked you to do a few days ago?"

After several minutes, Luo Fei called the phone back: "I've already checked it out, oops, I'm sorry, I forgot to tell you. Don't tell me, this "Babel Rebellion" is so fun that I can't stop it." , I built an assassin’s account, I’ve already practiced at level 30, and I’ve just finished the copy of ‘The Chosen in the Wilderness’…”

Wen Baifan intercepted his chatter, and said angrily, "Brat, did I ask you to play games!?"

"Okay, it's so fierce." Luo Fei was aggrieved, and honestly reported, "The last login location of the ID named Wangchen Moji is in Chaocheng, Chunzhi District, which is very close to you. More specific I have no authority, after all, personal behavior."

Wen Baifan said mercilessly: "I checked so many things in five days, and you said you are a waste. Well, Dad doesn't blame you. People in love have low IQs. Go play." "Votors in the wilderness" Then it’s time for ‘Cain’s Punishment’, you should pay attention to find a reliable healer, this dungeon will have a very cheating hidden boss, the old man’s attack power is not strong, but he has a particularly damaging nine-rank Inspiritualism, those who get hit will fall into mental confusion, and the damage will be randomly added to teammates..."

Suddenly someone reached out from behind and patted his right shoulder, Wen Baifan turned his head subconsciously, only to hear a familiar voice in his left ear: "Haha, Brother Ji, what a coincidence!"

A head of pink hair came into view, Wen Baifan smiled and said, "Master Wang, what a coincidence?"

"I hate it, call someone Alexandra, okay?" Wang Jinsheng, the manager of the hairdressing salon, said coquettishly, and walked to a table not far away with small steps, picked up a glass of pink peach juice, and walked back with small steps. Going to Wen Baifan's side, he sat down affectionately next to him, "You are alone, and so am I, so I'll sit here. Why didn't your husband accompany you today, and came to drink alone, so lonely."

Although Wen Baifan was fearless in the vest of "Brother Ji", when he first heard the word "husband", he couldn't help but twitched the corner of his mouth stiffly: "Oh, he didn't accompany me, um, today he... He was dragged on a blind date by his mother."

Wang Jinsheng frowned, bit his lower lip lightly, and looked at Wen Baifan sadly: "You must be very sad right now."

"Well, it's actually okay." Seeing the other party's sincere sentimentality, although it was a bit exaggerated, Wen Baifan still felt a little guilty for his boring deception.A white lie is still a deception, but the matter is so far, it can only be made up a little more tenderly, "You know, he is a straight man, and he hasn't come out to the family yet. I still trust him very much. He did it just to It’s just for parents to feel at ease, haha.”

"Falling in love with a straight man is really a catastrophe." Wang Jinsheng took a big mouthful of peach juice and sighed, "Of course, I'm not saying that your husband will be like this. Indifferent, but when I look at you, my eyes will become gentle. Congratulations, you are safe, but it is a pity that not everyone who falls in love with a straight man is as lucky and happy as you."

Wen Baifan glanced at him, "Please tell your story."

Wang Jinsheng's answer was also very straightforward: "I like Dumb Hua, can't you see it?"

"What, what?" Wen Baifan almost choked to death on a mouthful of cocoa milk.

"I said, I like the stuffy gourd in our store." Wang Jinsheng's eyeliner was slightly upturned at the end, and he squinted at Wen Baifan, "Is it incredible?

"Brother Hua, he is..."

"He is not. I heard that he had an ex-girlfriend before, and he has a deep relationship. The lover still treasures that woman's clothes and jewelry." Wang Jinsheng curled his lips in disdain, "That woman hurt him so deeply back then, After the breakup, he got drunk. That day, he collapsed in front of my house. I saw him pitiful, so I picked him up and brought him home. Anyway, he is an orphan and has no family in Chaocheng. , I let him learn hairdressing, and then help me in the shop, and the money owed to me will be deducted from his salary."

Wen Baifan smiled: "You have a good heart."

"I don't have a good heart. I only help him because I see that he looks good and is honest. You don't know, I'm really mean to him. It's been seven or eight years, and my salary is a penny. He was not given a raise, and he has never complained."

Wang Jinchang sighed, and leaned his upper body on Wen Baifan, as if he regarded him as a good girlfriend, "What should I do, when will he let go of the past, so that I can really walk into his heart."

Wen Baifan moved his body a little uncomfortably, "Emotions come out little by little. You might as well think about what else he likes to do besides going to work, so as to create more common topics."

"I know, he likes to play online games, the famous "Babel Rebellion", have you heard of it?" Wang Jinsheng poked a straw at the remaining peach pieces in the empty glass, distressed Said, "Because he plays a female account and is the president of the Grand Guild, I specially created a male account to get in, but he didn't even pass the membership assessment. He doesn't talk to strangers in the game. I can’t even get close, and I’m too embarrassed to reveal my identity.”

Wen Baifan's heart moved, and he suddenly asked an irrelevant question: "By the way, what is Brother Hua's full name?"

"Ruan Chenhua, Ruan is Ruan whose surname is Ruan, morning morning, gorgeous Hua."
