The long-awaited Xiaobie reunion finally got into the police station.Joanna was crying without tears holding the phone full of words, like a poor little beggar along the street, looking pitifully at every policeman who passed by beating her.

It's not that the police in Los Angeles are unloving, it's just that the words on Joanna's phone screen are densely packed, which makes people feel headaches.In addition, Joanna strictly abides by the principle of "don't talk when there are many people", even if someone kindly asks a question or two, Joanna can immediately use the converter to type a long paragraph on the mobile phone.No matter how patient the policeman is, he will inevitably shout at his busy colleagues at this time: "Have you contacted the Disabled Persons Association?"

Joanna is not disabled, nor does she want to be perceived as disabled at all.When the anxious panic at the beginning gradually receded, Joanna quickly found the best solution.

She took off the converter and typed a sentence on the screen seriously with her finger: Where is Inspector Chloe Decker?

Compared with her initial explanation, which was called a doctoral dissertation, this concise question obviously aroused the attention of the police officers.

"Chloe Decker? You know her?"

- Yes, I am friends with her.Can you help me contact her?Just say that Joanna is looking for her.

A fat policeman who looked more relaxed than his colleagues looked around for a while, and finally grabbed Dan who was passing by him: "Hey! Dan, this girl is looking for Chloe."

Dan, who was busy dealing with the murder case two days ago, was very dissatisfied with the fact that someone stopped his busy pace, but he heard that the other party was coming for Chloe.He still couldn't help but stopped: "Looking for Chloe?"

Joanna nodded quickly, her eyes wide open.

"she went out."

For some reason, Joanna felt that Dan who said this was a little... not very happy.

—Can you tell me where she went?

Dan glanced at the phone screen, and immediately felt sorry for the dumb girl: "There is a case. She is very busy recently."

Joanna rolled her eyes and typed another sentence quickly.

—Is she with Lucifer?

After reading this sentence, Dan was completely unhappy, and even the fat policeman standing aside felt the dissatisfaction of his colleagues.But Dan wasn't stupid enough to get angry with a dumb girl, he just replied in an unpleasant tone, "Probably. Who knows!"

Joanna quickly thanked her with her lips, then went to the corner with her mobile phone in her hand and called Lucifer.

Lucifer hung up on the phone with Joanna twice at the crime scene, and when the third call came in, Chloe couldn't help but said, "Can you answer the phone, please? Don't let it keep buzzing scream."

Lucifer's finger hovering over the red reject button paused, and then he pressed it decisively.Immediately after turning off the phone and putting the phone back in the pocket, the whole process was done in one go, with a bit of "I have rehearsed many times in advance".

Chloe:? ? ? ? ?

Lucifer smiled smugly: "This way it won't bother us, let's continue to find suspects to ask questions!"

"Lucifer, this is not a game."

"I know! It's work."

Chloe sighed, ignoring the mentally retarded Lucifer who was smiling, and went straight to the side to talk to the forensic doctor who appeared on the scene about the condition of the deceased.

And Joanna, who was in the police station, was circling around the corner anxiously because she failed to contact Lucifer.Steve, who was ordered to sit in the waiting room, saw Joanna's anxious appearance from a distance through the gap in the blinds.He thinks Joanna like this is both cute and distressing.Looking at Joanna's figure, Steve couldn't help showing a faint smile.

When he turned his head, he saw the police officer who was in charge of temporarily watching him, with a look of disgust on his face, and he didn't even chew his gum.After colliding with Steve's eyes, the policeman rolled his eyes, stepped forward and pulled the curtains, completely blocking the indoor and outdoor light.

Steve was a little wronged. It seemed that the way he looked at Joanna just now became evidence that he was a voyeur.

Steve could feel Joanna's anxiety and helplessness.The busyness of the Los Angeles Police Department was beyond the imagination of the two of them. It is normal for the police officers to not pay attention to small cases like theirs for a while.In addition, Joanna was unable to speak, and the long-winded, possibly nonsensical text explanations were of no use except to make the police feel troublesome.

It was not Joanna who called the police, but the coffee shop owner.It looked like Steve had no hope of being taken seriously by the coffee shop owners until they finished taking notes.If he had known earlier, when he was in the coffee shop, he should have chosen to remain silent and let Joanna calmly explain everything to everyone.

Joanna, unable to contact Lucifer and Chloe, decided to rely on her own strength to end all this after struggling for half a minute.She picked up her mood and walked towards the room where Steve was.

There were people coming and going outside the door, but no guards were seen.Then maybe there's only one... guarding police officer inside, sharing the room with Steve.

Joanna knocked on the door of the waiting room.The chewing gum police officer who was in charge of temporarily guarding Steve opened the door. After seeing Joanna, he showed a surprised expression: "Ma'am, is there anything I can do for you?"

Joanna holds up her phone

——You have caught the wrong person.

The police officer looked back at Steve with a calm face, then turned to Joanna and said, "Maybe, but that's not something I can judge right now. Ma'am, why don't you take a break elsewhere? I believe my colleagues We'll be looking for you for a note soon."

As soon as this was mentioned, Joanna became angry. She bowed her head and typed a word, and then showed the phone to the police.

——Your colleagues haven't written notes to the owner of the coffee shop yet!

The chewing gum officer looked at it and couldn't help but yelled outside twice, basically to make people ask who is in charge of the transcript. He doesn't want to stay here and look at this "suspect" who seems to be able to overthrow him at any time. people".

However, Officer Gum's rage doesn't get him the attention he deserves.He couldn't help but cursed a few curse words in a low voice and looked at Joanna again: "Anyway, just wait."

Joanna typed fast.

——Can you listen to my explanation, you really caught the wrong person.

"Didn't you say it? Someone else is in charge of the transcript, why are you explaining to me?"

Joanna put down her phone, frowning.Under the impatient eyes of the chewing gum police officer, Joanna said, "Why can't I explain. You really caught the wrong person. Could it be..."

"Joanna." Steve, who had been silent all the time, stopped Joanna.

Joanna looked at Steve, who shook his head slightly.

The strange interaction between the two made the chewing gum officer smell a weird atmosphere.He cautiously distanced himself from the two of them, and looked at Joanna defensively: "Aren't you dumb?"

Joanna was extremely wronged in her heart, and she was also extremely angry because of the anxious IQ and efficiency of these police officers.But in the end, Joanna didn't speak again. She looked solemn and shook her head silently.That expression, as if a prisoner who pleaded guilty gave up resistance.

"You're not dumb, why don't you talk?" The chewing gum officer couldn't understand Joanna's actions at all, "Also, what's your relationship with him?"

[I don't speak because I want to spare your dog's life! 】

【what relationship?A handsome guy and a beautiful woman, what kind of relationship can it be? It's the kind of unclear relationship you can think of!Retarded! 】

Joanna, who didn't wear a converter, guessed that if she was wearing a converter at the moment, maybe those curse words could fill two pages of document paper in an instant.But in reality, she wasn't even in the mood to type at the moment, she just looked at the mentally handicapped chewing gum officer silently.

Just when the chewing gum officer was nervous and was about to find someone to temporarily control Joanna, Dan, who was waiting for his subordinates to get the file, noticed Joanna again.

Because Joanna mentioned Lucifer earlier, Dan couldn't help being a little bit interested in this dumb girl who couldn't speak.It seemed that she knew Lucifer and Chloe, but Chloe never mentioned such a person to him.

With curiosity, Dan walked towards Joanna.

"Hey! George, is everything okay?" Dan greeted his colleagues with ease.

The chewing gum officer pursed his mouth and shook his head lightly: "I'm afraid it's not good, this girl and that man are too suspicious."

Dan frowned and looked at Joanna, only to see Joanna give him a look of lovelessness.

"Have you contacted Chloe yet?"

Joanna shook her head.

"Where's Lucifer?" Dan couldn't help frowning when the name was mentioned.

Joanna still just shook her head.

Dan sighed, "So... are you in trouble?"

This time, Joanna nodded.

Dan pointed to Joanna's cell phone: "Don't you use this thing to communicate with people?"

Before Joanna could respond, the chewing gum police officer said, "Dan, don't be fooled by this woman. She can talk."

Dan heard this, showing a surprised expression.

And Joanna still had that look of lovelessness in her life, neither admitting nor refuting.

Steve in the waiting room said: "It's all a misunderstanding, don't embarrass her. Is it okay?"

Dan looked at Steve in the room, and then at Joanna, who seemed to have put down the blow. He hesitated for two seconds, and then patted the shoulder of Police Officer Chewing Gum: "Well, you go and find out what happened to this case. What's going on, who's in charge. Until then, I'll talk to both of them."

"Do you need someone to accompany you?"

"No, in the police station, I opened the door of the waiting room. Just asking casually. Don't be so nervous."

The gum officer hesitated for two seconds, then finally nodded and left.

Dan invited Joanna into the room and asked her to find a seat she liked.

As soon as Joanna sat down next to Steve, Dan asked, "You guys know each other, right?"

"She's my girlfriend." Steve replied calmly, "We haven't seen each other for a long time, and I wanted to... scare her when we were in the cafe today. So... anyway, we both misunderstood the owner of the cafe That's why we made such a fuss."

Dan looked at Joanna: "Is that so?"

Joanna nodded, and seemed to have calmed down a lot.

Dan thought for 2 minutes, stood up and said, "Well, I'll ask the owner of the coffee shop what's going on. If it's just a misunderstanding as you said, you should be able to leave soon. Or... ...Do you need me to help you contact Chloe? You want to find her, right? If you need to find Chloe for anything else, I can also help you contact her."

Joanna looked at Dan with gratitude in her eyes. She lowered her head and typed a string of words.

--Thank you.I also asked Chloe to help me explain the situation here.She and Steve also knew each other.If you have any doubts, you can ask Chloe for confirmation.

Dan nodded, said "wait a moment", and left the waiting room.

Steve reached out and held Joanna's hand gently: "Joanna, it's not your fault."

Joanna didn't speak, but turned her head to the side in silence.
