The little girl with two braids was sitting on a small bench next to the stove, peeling a banana.Seriously broke it into two halves, compared it, and handed the larger one to her, tilted his head and smiled, revealing two snow-white front teeth: "Here, I'll eat it for you, it's delicious."

It was the first time in her life that she ate bananas, and the first time she knew the taste of bananas. It was so delicious that she wanted to swallow the skins.

"Don't be sad anymore, seeing you sad makes me sad too." Jing Qi sighed.

His lingering sigh made Bei Mingxue's heart throb slightly.

She stared at Jing Qi's side face, her pulse was sunny, and she dyed his thick black eyebrows with tiny pieces of pale gold, as if sprinkled with gold powder.

He is a sunny and handsome boy, full of vigor and vitality.

If you stay by his side, you will be infected by him without knowing it, and your whole body will come alive.

She thought, she really shouldn't continue to complain about Ai.

After going through so much pain, I got happiness, so why bother with those bad memories?How about making the man you love worry about yourself?

Mom is right, forget it, forget it all.

So, she tried her best to return Jing Qi with a soft smile.

Seeing her smile, Jing Qi's mood suddenly improved, he stopped, looked at her with deep eyes, and said sincerely: "Xiaoxue, I hope you know that no matter what happens or experiences in the future, you will never forget her. No longer alone, I will be by your side."

Just as Bei Mingxue was about to say something, Jing Qi already took her hand and walked forward, "Let's go, let's go see the red leaves."

There was a faint smile and deep affection in his eyes.

Therefore, Bei Mingxue raised the corners of her mouth and said softly, "Okay."

The two walked into the U-shaped turn of the cement road, and a rockery immediately burst into view.

The strange peaks protrude, the strange rocks are jagged, and the ravines are crisscrossed. It really looks like that.

Jing Qi took Bei Mingxue's hand and got into the maple forest opposite the rockery.

Compared with the world outside the forest, the autumn here is not bleak, but prosperous.

Being in the forest really feels like a dream.

As far as the eye can see, there is a vast sea of ​​red, layer upon layer, dense and shallow, thick and faint, bright and dark.

The red is so coquettish, the red is wanton, and the red is so unrestrained, Bei Mingxue can't help but admire: "It's so beautiful."

She finally understands what is "autumn mountains reflect clouds and rivers are red", and what is "autumn scenery is magnificent, and the color of frost is flowing red".

Seeing her sincerely showing joy, Jing Qi felt very relieved and couldn't help smiling.

A gust of wind blew past, blowing Bei Mingxue's long hair, a few locks blocked her view, she raised her fingers, and brushed the unsightly hair behind her ears.

At this moment, she suddenly saw something unusual behind the tree trunk in front of her.

Not dead branches and leaves, nor like discarded plastic bags.

"What's that?" She couldn't help asking.

Looking at her fingertips, Jing Qi said indifferently, "Who threw the trash."

The two walked around the trees and weeds in front of them, and Jing Qi's expression froze instantly.

Bei Mingxue widened her eyes, covered her mouth, and let out a low exclamation.

***

Lying quietly on the bed, Su Ye stared at the ceiling, in a trance.

It was getting late, but he didn't want to move at all.

There is no doubt that Ou Yuchen likes the honeysuckle pattern very much. He remembers that the small building where he lived in the past had the same pattern on the ceiling.

Honeysuckle pattern, Buddhism is particularly fond of it, and it is often used to decorate various buildings, implying the immortality of the human soul and eternal life in reincarnation.

However, Suye didn't think that Ou Yuchen would believe in those illusory things, such as souls, reincarnations/worlds...

He felt that what Ou Yuchen admired should be the tenacity of the honeysuckle flower that survived the winter without dying—although Ou Yuchen never said it, Suye felt that way.

"Ring, ring, ring..." Just as he was dazed in thought, the landline rang suddenly, which startled him.

He stared at the phone for a full ten seconds, until it rang again, then he slowly grabbed the receiver and put it on his ear: "Hello?"

"Suye?" It was a young, man's voice, vaguely familiar.

"Ah."

"I called your cell phone just now, why didn't you answer it? I was so anxious!" the man complained.

"that……"

Before Suye could hesitate to say anything, that person had already interrupted him: "Come out quickly! I'm at your door right now!"

Very eager and very familiar tone.

Suye felt baffled, thought for a while, and then asked lightly, "Who are you?"

The man choked suddenly, and he could hear it through the phone line. His wheezing and wheezing voice paused for a while, and he muttered muffledly: "I'm Ye Zihui."

"What do you want from me?" Suye asked in a more indifferent, alienated and puzzled tone.

"There's a big case! I'll take you to the scene."

Su Ye was slightly taken aback, he didn't mind helping the police occasionally, but since Shao Ren was sent to Scotland Yard to study abroad, Sun Qisen from the Public Security Bureau of City S was seconded to the Public Security Bureau of City B to temporarily take over Shao Ren's position as the Criminal Investigation Team Since the leader of the serious crime team, he has never been asked for help.

Could it be that Shao Ren is back?

This speculation made Suye's dull mood a little more relaxed.

For Shao Ren, he was still happy to see him.

It was rare for Suye, and he quickly changed his clothes, and hurried downstairs with his slippers on. When the hard-soled slippers passed the wooden stairs, they made a rattling sound, which was a bit ear-piercing.

Everything in this small building is good, except that the stairs are spiral, and the corners are a bit sharp, the slope is relatively steep, and it is very narrow, a bit like the ridge connection of a fan.

For example, Uncle Zhong refused to take the indoor stairs, preferring to take the outdoor stairs away. He said that he was too big and would fall down if he was not careful.

Fortunately, only Suye and Ou Yuchen live on the second floor, except for Luo Ziyang who comes up on time to clean up, no one else needs to go upstairs.

Su Ye went downstairs, changed into her jogging shoes at the entrance, and pushed open the door.

The cool and refreshing air rushed towards the face immediately, and breathed into the lung lobes, which was very comfortable.

Jiang Bai was standing in the middle of the yard, holding a dog chew, teasing Xiao Bai with a smile.

Hearing the movement, one person and one dog all tilted their heads to look over.

Seeing that it was Su Ye, Xiao Bai snorted twice in disgust, shook his head very arrogantly and handsomely, stood upright with two short hind legs, and jumped up with all his strength, enough for the dog in Jiang Bai's hand to chew.

Jiang Bai was a handyman hired by the family after Sister Lan passed away.

He doesn't look very good-looking, with a round face, very dark, and many pits, but he works quite quickly, and he is also very simple and honest, and he never knows how to cheat.

Of course, he also has some minor flaws, but who is perfect in this world?

Overall, Ou Yuchen was quite satisfied with him.

Su Ye has nothing to say, he never finds fault with others, and the reason is only one word, lazy.

Xiaobai is a purebred Jingba, with a snow-white body and long fluff, which is very beautiful.It was a gift from Miss Xie Yuxin to Ou Yuchen.

Ou Yuchen originally planned to return it, let it go back and forth, he has no interest in any pets.

In addition to taking care of himself, he is too lazy to take care of any other creatures when there is no profit to be made. From this point of view, Suye should actually feel honored and flattered.

Far away, on the issue of this puppy, Suye expressed his opinion in a rare way: "Can't we keep it?"

So, it was left behind.

The name was also chosen by Suye. On the day it was delivered, "Reaper" was playing on TV, and this Pekingese was very lucky to have the same name as Captain Hitsugaya of the [-]th squad.

Regardless of appearance, it is really a very cunning, very good at observing words and expressions, and is ungrateful and does not know how to repay the favor.

In this family, the person he is closest to is Jiang Bai, the person he fears the most is Ou Yuchen, the person he likes the most is Uncle Zhong, and the person he dislikes the most is Su Ye.

Su Ye was also speechless about this obviously unfair treatment.

In contrast, Jiang Bai was much more polite, and grinned at him: "There is a policeman waiting for you outside, I let him in, but he didn't come in, he said he called you."

As Suye walked out, he responded casually, slowly, "Oh."

After walking a few steps, he suddenly stopped, looked at Jiang Bai thoughtfully, hesitated for a few seconds, and asked, "What's wrong with your leg?"

Xiaobai was still staring at the dog bite glue, jumping up and down around Jiang Bai.

Jiang Bai deliberately teased it to play, making various evasive movements, his left leg seemed to be injured, and his movements were not very neat.

"It's nothing." Jiang Bai said in a daze.

Su Ye pointed to his left leg.

"Oh," Jiang Bai scratched his head nonchalantly, and laughed, "I was thrown down by Xiao Bai just now, and twisted my ankle, it's okay."

Judging by his appearance, there was nothing serious, Su Ye opened the door and walked out without saying anything.

***

The blue and white police cars galloped along Xinmin Street from south to north.

Fortunately, this time period is not the peak period of traffic volume, and the sirens are whining, but they are invincible.

Ye Zihui sat in the driver's seat, and while driving, he glanced at the expressionless boy from the rearview mirror from time to time.

From the time he got in the car, Su Ye didn't say a word, didn't even ask him what case happened or where he was going, just quietly stared out the car window in a daze.

The flowing street scene, like a frame of movie film, flashed slowly in front of my eyes.
