L.A.W.

49. Heart knot is hard to solve

One month later, winter turned to spring, and the verdict came down. Liu Chutao was sentenced to life imprisonment, Wang Lei was sentenced to death, and Huo Qinglin, Zheng Hai, and Lin Shou were all sentenced to fixed-term imprisonment.

Qiao Lier walked alone in the cool cemetery under an umbrella, took Yan Jingxi's urn and put it on the worship table, and lit the joss stick. This day was his birthday.

"Do you remember? This is the note I wrote to you in the jar, 'Death and life will be rich, and you will be happy with your son; hold your hand, and you will grow old together'." A piece of paper touched the candlelight, and the paper The corners were gradually scorched black and turned into ashes, and a wisp of blue smoke rose. He stared blankly at the jumping flames, and didn't realize it until the paper was burnt and burned to his hand.

The ringing of the mobile phone broke the silence of the cemetery.

"Mom~" Qiao Lier replied softly, as if she didn't want to disturb the tranquility at this moment, she wiped the teardrops still hanging on her face with her fingertips.

Mother and child are connected, how can his mother Qiao not feel his emotions, "Where are you?"

"Southland Cemetery."

Mother Qiao was silent for a moment, "Go home for dinner tonight, and I made your favorite dishes."

"Ah."

Qiao Lier hung up the phone. After the case was closed, Qiao Lier was still living in the single dormitory of the police, and Jinyu Lanwan couldn't go back. The past scenes of staying there played in his mind like a movie, and he couldn't fall asleep at all. , Tears kept flowing, uncontrollable at all. As a doctor, he himself knew that this was a loss of emotional control, and sooner or later he would get depression.

Day by day

stacked into strangeness and regret

Finally finally

silent far away hard to get closer

Amidst the misty rain, walk with me alone

The world is getting dark

And the cold rain drenched the body

The drizzle was like broken teardrops, dripping on the umbrella surface and sliding silently along the black fiber cloth.We met, knew each other, and fell in love in the best years, but now we are separated forever.

Qiao residence.

"Little Qiao, you're back." Lu Yi'er greeted her as soon as the door opened, "Why are you wearing so little, your lips are purple from the cold."

"Thank you!" Qiao Lier took the warm baby electric hot water bottle that Lu Yier gave him, and greeted Xiaoyi who was sitting on the sofa with her stomach upright, "Sister-in-law, when is the due date?"

"May." Xiaoyi was peeling and eating walnuts, "Is it good for pregnant women to eat more nuts?"

"Nuts contain protein, oil, minerals and vitamins." Qiao Lier changed into fluffy cloth slippers. "Helps fetal brain development."

"Everyone is ready, let's serve dinner." Mother Qiao brought out dishes from the kitchen.

The whole family sits around the dining table, with a steaming bamboo mutton stew in the middle.

"Little Qiao, someone has taken a fancy to your house today." Xiao Yi, who worked as a real estate agency, chewed on the lamb chops, "The price also feels right."

"Then let's sell it!" Qiao Lier picked up the white rice, "Agent fees, commissions, etc., you will deduct the house payment."

Unknowingly, Lu Yi'er asked, "Are you going to sell the Golden Mile Blue Bay he left you?"

"Hmm~" Qiao Lier chewed the rice, "All the money from the sale will be donated to the orphanage, I believe he hopes to do the same."

"That's good, eat more!" Qiao's mother picked up a piece of lamb belly for him, "Since the house over there is going to be sold and the case is closed, why don't you move back home."

"Living in the dormitory is pretty good." Qiao Lier stared at the rice in the bowl.

"Where is it good?" Father Qiao, who is a senior doctor of traditional Chinese medicine, shook his head and said, "Now there is a lot of black air, the skin is dark yellow and dull, and the lip color is light. Let Dad grab some Chinese medicine and treat it for you."

"Dad, you don't have to worry about me." Qiao Lier squinted at Xiaoyi, "You should take good care of your sister-in-law and give you a big fat grandson."

Thinking of the sticky and dark Shiquan Dabu soup that Qiao's father cooked with all kinds of traditional Chinese medicine, Xiaoyi felt goosebumps all over his body, and while Qiao's father was not paying attention, he gave Qiao Lier a hard look, and whispered: " Brother-in-law, don't come around to me."

"We all live back, let's take care of it together." Mother Qiao is most happy to see the whole family happy and harmonious.

Qiao's mother's nagging skills are definitely not inferior to Tang Sanzang back then. Xiaoyi looked at her husband with help-seeking eyes, and Lu Yi'er hurriedly said: "It's not convenient for us to live here, and Xiaoyi is holding his stomach, and it's too much to fight for work." It’s expensive, and there’s not much bus traffic here, so we’d better come back and stay for a short stay on weekends.”

"I work irregular hours." Qiao Lier continued, "Living together, you won't get used to it."

"Xiao Qiao, I know you are afraid that we will talk about finding a wife." Qiao's mother put down the tableware, "Since that incident, Xiaoyi has found information on this for us. Your father and I have both read it and understand it. Things can't be forced, and we will accept whatever company you will have in the future."

"Marry a wife and ask for a lady. In the future, you have to find a suitable partner." Qiao's father sighed, "Don't be like..."

"You guys don't understand Yan Jingxi, he is a good person, but he just went astray." Qiao Lier pursed her lips, "If I had communicated with him more, the ending might not be like this. After all, I am also responsible."

"Don't blame yourself too much." Lu Yi'er comforted him, "I believe his spirit in heaven doesn't want you to be like this."

"I heard from Xiaoyi that there is a captain in your bureau chasing you." Qiao's mother looked at Qiao's father, "Old man, I think the same system is reliable."

"That is." Father Qiao nodded in agreement, "At least in the future there will be no conflicts due to different fronts, and the iron rice bowl is guaranteed."

"Dad, Mom, don't listen to Zhang Yi's nonsense, and I don't plan to find a partner right now." Gritting her teeth, Qiao Lier secretly scolded Zhang Yiqi 49 times. Put all the scalpels in the back, and then throw it in the freezer and freeze it overnight.

"Yes!" Lu Yi'er said, "Mom and Dad, this matter is not in a hurry."

Xiaoyi smiled and said, "I don't have to worry about becoming an advanced mother."

As soon as the words came out, everyone was blacked out, and Xiaoyi hurriedly buried her head in her meal, "I seem to have said something wrong."

The phone vibrated on the coffee table, Qiao Lier put down the bowl and chopsticks, wiped his mouth with a tissue, "The call from the command center, I'm about to show up."

"Let's go after eating!" Mother Qiao wanted to call him, but Qiao Lier had already put on her coat and walked to the door to change her shoes.

In Nanping Village, the cold wind was blowing. Villagers surrounded a village house in groups of three and four, and the flashing red and blue headlights of police cars hit the wall.

"Forensic Qiao, you are here." Guo Mingxiang led him to the village house, "The corpse is inside."

Qiao Lier crossed the police line and entered the scene of the crime. An old lady was lying on the red brick floor in the bedroom, her eye sockets were hollow, and half of her body was stained red by the blood of Da Tan: "It's cruel."

"Hmm~" Guo Mingxiang drew a trail along the corpse with a white chalk, "Old man living alone."

Qiao Lier inserted a probe into the deceased's liver to measure the liver temperature, "The initial estimated time of death is four o'clock in the afternoon."

Guo Mingxiang glanced at the messy room, "Liu Hua, did you find anything?"

"The deceased's cash, passbook, and gold ornaments were all gone." Liu Hua rummaged through the deceased's cabinets and boxes wearing gloves. According to the villagers' recollection, Wang Adi, the deceased, wore gold ornaments during his lifetime and had a certain amount of cash in his home.

"Murder case." Guo Mingxiang walked out of the room and told Zhen Liang, "Go with Shitou to take notes for the villagers, and see if there is anything unusual in the deceased's house around four o'clock in the afternoon."

"I know, captain." Zhen Liang immediately turned around and went out to make notes from door to door.

"Captain?" Qiao Lier looked at Guo Mingxiang in surprise.

"Oh, it's actually just the acting captain." Guo Mingxiang took off the medical gloves, "Didn't he tell you? It seems that something happened to Team Zhao's family, and he applied for family leave to go to the United States."

"Well, he told me that I was on vacation and forgot about it." Qiao Lier examined the neck of the deceased, "The cause of death was preliminarily determined to be death from hemorrhagic shock by cutting the throat, and the final conclusion will have to wait for my release." autopsy report."

Guo Mingxiang said while taking fingerprints on the spot, "Actually, the captain is quite worried about you."

"Don't worry! I'm fine." Qiao Lier raised his camera to take pictures of the corpse.

"There are no obstacles in life." Guo Mingxiang comforted, "Look forward in everything."

"Understood, thank you!" Qiao Lier put away the tools, "I will trouble you to arrange to send the body back to the bureau for an autopsy."

"Well, no problem." Guo Mingxiang sighed helplessly as he looked at his receding back.

Meeting the wrong person at the right time is a lifetime of regret; meeting the right person at the right time is a happy marriage; meeting the right person at the wrong time is a sigh.

Forensic Section.

"Honey, welcome back." Zhang Yi gave him a big hug as soon as he entered the door, and kissed him on the face with a "boo".

Qiao Lier broke free from his arms, "Don't be crazy, be careful that your little C is jealous, and punish you to kneel on the keyboard."

"Isn't it kneeling on the washboard? How did it become a keyboard?"

"It's hard to find a laundry board these days." Qiao Lier had already changed into sterile clothes.

"Our family is patriarchal, and women stand aside." Zhang Yi sat on the swivel chair, "I'm worried that the judge will be jealous."

"You just have to twitch! Who was caught by little C's ear last time."

"Don't mention that scandal." Zhang Yi approached him, "He's gone, why don't you think about the judge?"

"I can't forget Yan Jingxi." Qiao Lier turned on the shadowless lamp and walked to the dissection table.

"I know you can't forget him for a while, it's human nature." Zhang Yi swayed in the swivel chair, "But I'm worried that you won't have a boat after Suzhou."

"What do you mean?" Qiao Lier glanced at him.

"The judge may resign and emigrate." Zhang Yi seemed to be careless, but in fact he had been paying attention to his expression, and Qiao Lier's hand trembling slightly when he stabbed the knife.

Qiao Lier adjusted his knife-holding gesture, stabilized himself and used the knife to pull open the abdominal cavity of the corpse, "Why do you say those people hate you so much, and even gouged out the eyes after killing them."

Knowing that he was deliberately changing the subject, Zhang Yi followed him and said, "There are a lot of crazy people these days."

Qiao Lier measured the wound on the neck of the deceased, "It should be caused by a fruit knife."

"Last night, I could hardly keep my eyes open." Zhang Yi stood up from the chair, "I'm leaving first."

"By the way, take a break." Qiao Lier put down the knife, "What information did you show my parents that the two elders suddenly changed 360 degrees?"

"Hee hee~" Zhang Yi's eerie laughter made Qiao Lier's hair stand on end, "I really want to know?"

"Yeah~" Qiao Lier nodded, "Let's talk!"

"No, I just borrowed a few cases from the archives department." Zhang Yi spread out his hands, "In 03, Zhang was unable to get the understanding of his family, so he got depression and committed suicide by jumping off the building in Yinglun Building; A certain, when forced to be sent to a mental hospital for treatment, hacked and killed several medical staff with a knife hidden on his body; in 07, Wang and her boyfriend jumped into the river to die in love; in 09 years..."

"Wait~" Qiao Lier interrupted Zhang Yi's speech, "If I remember correctly, these guys are all homosexuals."

"Medium!" Zhang Yi snapped his fingers, and continued to speak casually: "By the way, I took a few more shocking photos of the scene for your two elders to observe."

How shocking Qiao Lier, who is a forensic doctor, knew very well that Zhang who jumped off the building spilled blood and brains all over the floor, and when Wang and his boyfriend jumped into the river in a group, their bodies were swollen several yards when they were rescued...

Qiao Lier's mouth was so surprised that it opened into an "O" shape, unable to close it for a long time, "How can you take the case files out?"

"Two Double Happiness is enough." Zhang Yi waved his hand disdainfully, "It won't kill anyone if you lend it out."

The corner of Qiao Lier's mouth twitched a few times unconsciously, and he really couldn't imagine the reaction of the two elders at that time.

"This time it really flashed, I didn't do it for your own good." Zhang Yi came over and patted him on the shoulder, "Calm down! Your two elders can stand it."

After Zhang Yi left, Qiao Lier crossed his arms on the dissecting table and stared blankly at the cold corpse. It's not that he doesn't like Zhao Jiefei, but he needs time, because time can forget everything and smooth everything, including Pain and love, as for the future?See step by step!
