last case

Tang Xin felt that if Xie Ji Bai was not angry before, then Xie Ji Bai must be shy now...

Xie Ji Bai seemed to have no intention of talking to him anymore, and entered the building without looking back.

He glanced at his phone, and the information Chen Yancai sent to him showed that Mr. Kou Xinkou worked on the fifteenth floor and was now the company's regional manager, and he was doing well.

They went upstairs to the fifteenth floor, and when they got off the elevator, they saw the company's front desk.The lady at the front desk politely asked who they were looking for and if they had an appointment.

Xie Jibai took out his ID and said, "We want to reduce Mr. Kou Xinkou."

The receptionist said, "Just a moment, please."

She made an intercom call, but the other party seemed to say that she didn't have time, so the receptionist had no choice but to put down the phone and said, "I'm sorry, Mr. Kou has an important meeting, which just starts now, and it will take about two hours. Please wait a moment." Wait a moment."

Tang Xin raised his eyebrows, it seems that they were rejected, this Kou Xin is indeed a difficult guy.

There was a row of seats outside the front desk, and neither of them was ushered into the lounge, let alone poured tea or coffee for them.The two stood for a while, then went to sit in the corridor outside.

Xie Jibai glanced at the time, Tang Xin said: "I guess two hours must be an imaginary number."

"Just think about us for a while." Xie Jibai said, although he also felt the same way.

Tang Xin said: "Why don't you tell me what you want to eat tonight? Let's stop by the supermarket to buy ingredients after get off work."

Xie Jibai glanced at him and said, "Do you think we can leave work on time?"

Tang Xin couldn't help laughing, waved his hands, and said, "That's true, the probability is not high."

"I want to eat hot pot." Xie Ji Bai said suddenly.

Tang Xin looked at him and said, "Is it such a hot day?"

Xie Jibai didn't speak.

Tang Xin nodded and said, "Okay, anyway, you can turn on the air conditioner."

"Mr. Tang?"

Xie Jibai and Tang Xin were chatting about nothing, when suddenly someone stood in front of them.

When the two raised their heads, they saw a very young woman who looked less than 30 years old. She was tall and bulging, wearing a short skirt and wearing a stiletto heel higher than ten centimeters. , looks capable and beautiful.

The woman's exquisite face showed a surprised and happy expression, she looked at Tang Xin, and said, "It's really Mr. Tang, I thought I was wrong."

"Are you...?" Tang Xin seemed to be unable to remember who this beautiful woman was, and smiled apologetically.

The woman hurriedly introduced herself and said, "I'm Mu Chuqing. Mr. Tang may not remember, but we met once before..."

Xie Jibai stood up, only then did he realize that the young woman in front of him was actually taller than him, she was half a head shorter than Tang Xin when she stepped on high heels.

Mu Chuqing said that she and Tang Xin met at a charity party abroad.It could be seen that Mu Chuqing was pleasantly surprised to see Tang Xin in China.

Mu Chuqing said: "Why is Mr. Tang sitting here? If you have time, can you invite Mr. Tang to have a cup of coffee downstairs? It's a pity that the cooperation with Tang Corporation didn't work out last time. I think... "

Tang Xin quickly interrupted the woman and said, "I'm sorry, Ms. Mu, I seldom ask about business matters, so..."

"I'm really sorry," Mu Chuqing said with a smile, "I was so surprised to see Mr. Tang, so I forgot about it. I'm really sorry. Then Mr. Tang is..."

Tang Xin took out his ID and said, "Investigate the case, but the Mr. Kou we are looking for seems to be in a meeting, and we need to wait here for a few hours."

"Mr. Kou?"

Judging from Mu Chuqing's expression, she must know who Mr. Kou is.Mu Chuqing's complexion was a bit uneasy, she immediately went to the front desk and asked, "Mr. Kou is in a meeting?"

The lady at the front desk knew her. She was Miss Mu from the company downstairs, and she had a cooperative relationship with their company.

The front desk lady was a little embarrassed because Xie Jibai and Tang Xin were right next to her, so she said bravely, "Mr. Kou... is here, waiting for Miss Mu to discuss the contract."

Xie Jibai understood as soon as he heard it, it turned out that this Kou Xin really wanted to play tricks on them, but he just found a reason for them to wait outside, but unexpectedly, he failed.

The lady at the front desk made an internal call, and soon, a man in his 40s and [-]s wearing a suit came out. It should be Kou Xin, similar to the information photo Xie Jibai received.

Kou Xin came out and said, "Miss Mu, Miss Mu, the two police detectives, this is a misunderstanding, please come in quickly."

Mu Chuqing said: "Mr. Kou, Mr. Tang is the young owner of the Tang Corporation. You have to keep your eyes open. Not everyone can afford to waste Mr. Tang's time. Let's talk about our contract later. If you want to think about it again, I'll go first."

"Ms. Mu, Ms. Mu!" Kou Xin was in a hurry, and after a good cooperation, the duck in his mouth was about to fly.

However, Mu Chuqing seemed to be a capable and decisive woman, she left as soon as she said she wanted to, without the slightest hesitation, and left alone after communicating with Tang. Kou Xin didn't catch up, and she had already boarded the elevator and closed the door.

Kou Xin's intestines turned green with regret.

Xie Jibai stood by and watched the whole play, couldn't help raising his eyebrows, and glanced sideways at Tang Xin.

It's been a while since Tang Xin returned to China, but Xie Jibai never asked him what he did abroad. He didn't expect that Tang Xin's family was in business, and he seemed quite rich.

Tang Xin watched Xie Jibai look at himself, and said: "After my parents passed away, I have been following my uncle. My uncle has a small business abroad, but I am not very interested in doing business."

When Kou Xin heard that a police detective came to him, he was very impatient and didn't want to see him, but he offended a big Buddha.He couldn't even offend Ms. Mu, let alone Tang's young boss, so he quickly bowed his head and invited Xie Jibai and Tang Xin in.

Kou Xin apologized a series of times, and then made tea and water for them himself.

Sitting there, Tang Xin was really dignified. He had a smile on his face, but it was a bit of a tiger, which made people stay away from him.

It was Xie Jibai who surprised Kou Xin a little. He didn't expect this police detective to be so good-looking, and he was wearing a pair of white gloves, which seemed full of abstinence.

Kou Xin was always a sensual person, but when he saw Xie Jibai, he almost rolled his eyes.

Xie Jibai went straight to the point, took out a photo of He Peixing, and said, "Mr. Kou, I heard that you used to be colleagues with He Peixing, and there were some holidays. Can you tell us what happened?"

Kou Xin said: "Mr. Detective, this is wronged. What can I have against him? We are just ordinary colleagues. Later, when he went wrong at work, the company had to fire him. There is no other way. Don't you think so?"

Tang Xin said: "Although Mr. Kou said so, we heard another theory. Some people said that Mr. Kou had an improper relationship with He Peixing's wife, and later..."

"No, no, absolutely not, how is this possible." Kou Xin hurriedly interrupted him and said, "Mr. Tang, you can't hear it."

Kou Xin was very strict and refused to say anything. He insisted that he and He Peixing had no personal grievances, and he hadn't dealt with He Peixing for a long time. He didn't know how he was doing recently, nor did he know that he had News of the dead.

Xie Jibai and Tang Xin spent several hours with him, and finally had to leave.

When the two of them came out, it was already past the time for lunch.

Xie Jibai glanced at his watch and said, "No gain at all."

Tang Xin asked: "Where are the others?"

Xie Jibai glanced at the phone and said, "It seems that there is no news yet."

Tang Xin said: "Then what should we do now? Go back to the game or...?"

Xie Jibai said: "Let's go back to the bureau first."

Without new clues and purpose, it's not a problem for them to run around outside. Let's go back and see if Chen Yancai can help.

The two stood on the side of the road, waiting for an empty taxi, and saw the endless stream across the road, and suddenly a child hurriedly ran to this side.

There are no traffic lights in this area, only a pedestrian crossing. The road is not wide, but there is a lot of traffic.The kid looked less than ten years old, and he was in a cold sweat as he shuttled quickly between the vehicles.

"careful!"

Xie Jibai suddenly rushed over and pulled the child forward, Tang Xin hurried over.Fortunately, Xie Ji Bai reacted quickly, otherwise the child would have been hit by a car.

"Are you okay?" Tang Xin helped the two of them up and asked.

"It's okay." Xie Ji Bai shook his hand.

Tang Xin breathed a sigh of relief, and said, "Don't run around in places with a lot of cars, you know? Where's your adult? Why are you alone?"

The child's clothes looked a little old, they were a little whitish after washing, and they were still a little dirty at this time.But he looks pretty good, and looks cute.

"I ran out." The little boy said.

Xie Jibai was stunned for a moment, suddenly felt a headache, could it be a child who ran away from home?

"The book in your hand..." Xie Ji Bai suddenly noticed the book in the little boy's hand.

The all gray cover...

Deja vu, depressing and weird.

The little boy raised his hand and picked up the book.

Tang Xin was taken aback, and the two of them saw clearly the words on the book cover this time.

—— "Memory of Fish·No.13 Volume"

Xie Ji Bai immediately asked, "Where did you get this book?"

Xie Jibai took the book and opened it...

"Clap" sound.

Something fell out.

Tang Xin immediately bent down to pick it up, and turned the front side over, it turned out to be a photo.

It's a picture of a room...
