Do not hesitate

Chapter 40

Early in the morning, Wang Shaoke was awakened from his dream by Shen Lue.

Because I slept too late last night, plus Shen Lue... Wang Shaoke felt that even his bones were about to fall apart, his waist was sore and his legs were so weak.

Why is her spirit so good? It's unscientific!

Rubbing her eyes, looking at Shen Lue in front of her, she really wanted to just hug her and sleep, not wanting to get up.With a bit of laziness in getting up, he murmured: "So early? Didn't you go to bed late yesterday because of your busy schedule?"

Shen slightly pampered her hair, listened to the soft voice, smiled slightly, and said: "I have very important things to do today, let you sleep well tomorrow, huh?"

"Hmm." Wang Shaoke rubbed his head against Shen Lue's arms, and said softly, "I don't remember."

Shen was slightly stunned, his eyes overflowed with softness, and the corner of his mouth curled up: "Get up, Luo is waiting for us." His tone was a little light, knowing that Wang Shaoke would not get up otherwise.

"Luo?" Wang Shaoke narrowed his eyes and looked at Shen Lue slightly. What's the reason why he was looking for Shen Lue in such a hurry?

"He found the person who hurt you." Shen Lue stood up and answered her question.

Hearing these words, Wang Shaoke lost all drowsiness, and stared at Shen Lue with a slight frown: "I can do my own business."

"I know, but I want to find him." Shen Yue said softly.

Wang Shaoke lowered her eyebrows, she knew that she was no match for Shen Lue.

Taking Wang Shaoke's hand, looking at each other, Shen slightly whispered: "Shaoke, let me take care of this time, okay?"

Ever since he was with Shen Lue, Wang Shaoke knew that Shen Lue would not ignore her affairs, just like if Shen Lue had something to do, he would not stand idly by.

Wang Shaoke stood up, pursed his lips and nodded: "In the future, I will also take care of your affairs."

Shen Lue stopped talking suddenly, fixed his eyes on Wang Shaoke's collarbone, and smiled for a long time before saying: "It's all up to you."

Wang Shaoke noticed that Shen Lue's gaze was a little strange, and something was wrong with his expression, so he couldn't help but look down.Her pajamas were already a bit loose, and last night... now half of them slipped down, exposing the shoulders, and the part below the collarbone was also exposed, with a faint hook inside, it was so charming.

Wang Shaoke quickly straightened his pajamas, and coughed: "I...I'm up." Just as he wanted to get up, he was pressed on the bed by Shen slightly, leaning over his ears. One sentence: "It's better to get up later..."

"...Mmm...um." The neck was warm and moist, and Shen Lue's lips passed by.

After that, it was really late to get up.

***

The deepest impression on Wang Shaoke during his visit to the United States this time is not the food, American dramas and beauties in the United States.Instead, a variety of abandoned warehouses in the suburbs.

This is simply a sanctuary for some people.

Shen Lue drove the car to the outside of the warehouse, parked the car and got down to look around.Wang Shaoke unfastened his seat belt and got out of the car and walked to Shen Lue, but his legs gave way and he almost fell off. Fortunately, Shen Lue reacted quickly and grabbed her, and said in a low voice, "Be careful."

"The ground is uneven!" Wang Shaoke said hastily.

Shen slightly smiled suspiciously: "Well, my arm was so soft when I was driving just now."

Wang Shaoke blushed.

"Sister slightly, people are unconscious inside."

Luo appeared from nowhere, standing behind the two, Wang Shaoke quickly withdrew his hand.

Shen slightly suppressed his smile, turned around expressionlessly, and asked lightly: "Have you found anything else?"

Luo replied: "No."

Shen Lue frowned slightly, and cast a look at Luo for some unknown reason: "You watch outside, hide yourself, we'll just go in."

"Sister slightly, be careful."

Shen Lue let out a "hmm", then turned and walked towards the warehouse.

Wang Shaoke stood on the spot, confused by what he heard, but still followed closely behind Shen Lue.

"What are you looking for?" Wang Shaoke walked side by side with her and asked curiously.

Shen Lue glanced at Wang Shaoke and said with a smile: "The ground here is not flat, so be careful not to fall."

The redness that had just faded on Wang Shaoke's face reappeared again, coughed twice, and said seriously: "Speak seriously!"

Shen Lue smiled slightly, staring at the warehouse in front of him, and said: "Sometimes it goes too smoothly, but it's not a good thing. Luo used 2CC but couldn't ask anything. This person...is not simple!"

Wang Shaoke stopped and looked at Shen Lue blankly.Having been a detective for so long, he naturally knew what 2CC Shen Lue was talking about, but he never thought that Shen Lue's people would actually have 2CC.Its full name is 'Sulphurized Pentosanate', a neuroinflammatory drug specially developed by foreign agents to extract confessions by torture.Although he has never seen it with his own eyes, Wang Shaoke also knows that when this drug is injected into the body, the peripheral nerves of the whole body will feel extremely painful and tortured.

Who is this woman?

Wang Shaoke only felt that she was becoming more and more unfathomable.

Seeing Wang Shaoke stop, Shen Lue turned around to look at the face that was completely undisguised in front of him, curled up the corner of his mouth, and asked softly, "Shaoke, why are you a detective, huh?"

Wang Shaoke didn't understand, so he said "huh?", but he didn't expect Shen Lue to ask this question suddenly.

"Is it just because you like Conan Doyle?" Shen slightly asked with a smile.

"Not completely, actually... I insist on being a detective because I want to find someone." For the first time, Wang Shaoke said her intention of being a detective in front of people.

"Oh?" Shen Lue stepped forward, stood in front of Wang Shaoke and asked curiously, "Who is it?"

Wang Shaoke organized his language and said: "I don't know who she is... That was the first case I took during college. To be honest, I was excited and happy that someone asked me for help. I read all the Sherlock Holmes cases at that time. I did find some clues, but I happened to have a conflict with the police. They saw that I was a college student, and they didn’t make things difficult for me, they just let me go.”

Shen slightly smiled: "You must agree."

Wang Shaoke curled his lips and raised his chin in response: "Of course, this is the first time I've become interested in detective work. Of course, I won't let go so soon. After several negotiations, it finally became a cooperative relationship."

"After a period of hard work, I was the first to find the person the police were looking for, but it was not the same person my client was looking for."

Shen slightly looked at Wang Shaoke expressionlessly, with a smile on the corner of his mouth: "In the end... you let her go, didn't you?"

Wang Shaoke looked at Shen Lue in surprise: "How do you know?"

"Guess." Shen Lue responded with a twitch of his mouth.

Wang Shaoke blinked and looked at Shen Lue, he was too good at guessing...

"Shao Ke, why do you look at me like that?" Shen Lue smiled more grandly.

Wang Shaoke pouted, frowned and said, "I'm afraid..."

Looking at each other, Wang Shaoke held Shen Lue's arm tightly, and said again: "I'm afraid I don't know you well enough, and I don't know how to protect you!"

"... Shaoke." Unexpectedly, she changed the subject again.

"If you have a premonition that something will happen, let's not look at it. This person doesn't matter to me." Wang Shaoke didn't want to look at anything at this time, he didn't want to do anything, he just wanted to pull Shen Lue away from this place of right and wrong, and return to the place where he belonged. their place.

Wang Shaoke admitted that she was afraid.She was afraid of facing those dangers, because she was afraid of losing Shen Lue.

Even if you don't really understand Shen Lue's background, you still know how dangerous an environment she lives in.Each of her intuitions is not a figment of the imagination, but a living experience.

There must be a reason for her questioning.

Such persistence is nothing more than for oneself.

"I'm just skeptical. If there's really something wrong with this person, I have to investigate it more clearly, don't I?" Shen slightly reached out to stroke Wang Shaoke's cheek, and comforted him: "I will protect myself for you. But Shaoke, You have to promise me that if something really happens, remember to protect yourself first, do you hear?"

The last thing Wang Shaoke wanted to hear was this sentence, and immediately responded: "I didn't hear it!"

Shen slightly frowned.

"I don't want anything to happen to you!"

"Silly girl, what can happen to me." Shen slightly smiled and said, "It's already here, why don't you take a look first?"

Wang Shaoke knew that all her worries were just wild thoughts, after all, Shen Lue was more cautious than her, so he had no choice but to nod in agreement.

The two continued to walk towards the warehouse.

"Shao Ke, do you want to find that person?" Shen Lue asked as he walked.

"Who?"

"The one you let go."

"Think, if I catch her, I'll retire. Who said I became a detective because of her." Wang Shaoke said in disbelief with his lips raised.

"Oh? It seems that Shaoke likes this person very much!" Shen slightly nodded.

Seeing that his tone was wrong, Wang Shaoke hurriedly explained: "...No...it's not what you think. It's just that she was injured at the time, and she told me with a proud face: You are indeed very suitable to be a detective, much better than those policemen. It's a pity, you still can't catch me." The tone became more and more angry.

Shen Lue didn't speak, just a smile oozing from the corner of his mouth.

"You laugh at me?"

"You let her go because she was hurt?"

"Because she said that it wasn't because she was injured during the mission, I couldn't find her at all, and she provoked me to let her go and catch her again."

Shen Lue stopped, looked at Wang Shaoke's face, and said, "In the end, you were cheated, weren't you?"

Wang Shaoke shook his head: "I think my ability is not enough."

Shen Lue stared at Wang Shaoke's clear eyes, the corners of his mouth slightly raised, and did not continue this topic.Turning around and walking straight into the warehouse, Wang Shaoke followed without thinking too much.

In the warehouse, there are building materials waste all around, making the already dilapidated environment even dirtier and messier.A man was bruised and bruised, his head drooping, and he was unconscious on a chair.

Shen Lue just wanted to take a closer look, but was stopped by Wang Shaoke: "I'll go, after all, I've seen him."

"It's okay, I think he's waking up soon." Shen Lue said.Or, already awake.

"Then go together." Wang Shaoke insisted without giving in.

Shen Lue smiled helplessly and nodded in response.

When he came to the man, Shen slightly raised his hand to lift up the man's face, looked it over carefully, and frowned slightly.I always felt that this man looked familiar, so I asked Wang Shaoke, "Is that him?"

Because the environment was relatively dark that day, the eyes of the person in front of him were closed again, his face was dirty and messy, and there were bruises hanging around the corners of his eyes.Wang Shaoke looked at it carefully for a long time, but he was not sure.

Suddenly the corner of the man's mouth curled up, and he woke up.

Subconsciously, Wang Shaoke pulled Shen Lue back several steps.She knew that this man was powerless to fight back at the moment, and she also knew that Shen Lue's skill would be fine even if he was not injured, but Wang Shaoke was just worried.

Shen Lue followed Wang Shaoke to keep a distance from this person, and asked with a cold face, "You woke up a long time ago, are you waiting for me?"

The man kept his head down, and it took a long time before he raised his head and said, "You don't know me anymore? Why are you the one who came here?"

Looking at these eyes, Wang Shaoke can be sure that he is not the one who attacked her that night.But hearing the tone, they seem to know each other.Therefore, the conversation between the two was not interrupted, but Wang Shaoke had already focused his attention to the maximum, and Shen Lue's intuition was indeed correct, this man must not be simple.

Shen Lue looked at this man seriously, he looked familiar, and frowned slightly.

Seeing Shen Lue's hesitant expression, the man burst out laughing, and said with disappointment in his voice, "Sure enough, you abandoned us, Xin!" His gaze flashed for a moment, and Wang Shaoke caught it.

I saw the man raised his hand and bit down hard on his thumb.

Everything happened in an instant, Shen Lue froze because of this action, and Wang Shaoke took Shen Lue out.

Because of that moment, the man's eyes showed a murderous look.

In the end, unexpectedly, the man behind him...

exploded!

It happened too fast, when Shen Lue regained consciousness, there was already thick smoke billowing around, and Wang Shaoke was on top of him.

not moving at all.

"Shaoke..." Shen Lue stood up and hurriedly checked Wang Shaoke's injuries.Stretching out her hand to touch it, Shen Lue frowned, her hands were covered with Wang Shaoke's blood.

"Shaoke, Shaoke... Don't worry about it, I won't allow you to worry about it!" Shen Lue's voice trembled slightly, his eyes were red, he pressed Wang Shaoke's pulse, and his tense expression eased.

Fortunately... she is still alive!

Hearing Luo's footsteps, Shen Lue immediately said: "Don't come out, tell Shen to come over quickly!"

Then, the footsteps disappeared.

After confirming that Wang Shaoke is still alive, Shen Lue's second thing is to check Wang Shaoke's injuries, whether there are fatal wounds.

Reach out and check carefully from the beginning.

——I want to protect you!

Shen Lue's hand touched Wang Shaoke's soft hair, but Wang Shaoke's words flashed through his mind.

"Shao Ke, you have to promise me that if something really happens, remember to protect yourself first, do you hear me?"

--did not hear it!

Biting his lower lip tightly, he continued to check Wang Shaoke's cervical and lumbar spine.

——I don't want anything to happen to you!

There was blood oozing from the corner of Shen Lue's mouth, she suppressed her expression, with a sullen face, she groped Wang Shaoke's body bit by bit, and checked it carefully.

Heart said: "Really, silly girl!"

Shen Lue never shows others with tears, because she thinks crying is the most stupid and useless thing in the world.So... She told herself since she was a child that she would never expose her vulnerable side.Even when her parents left, she never shed a single tear.

In the end, Shen Lue was sure that Wang Shaoke was not fatally injured, but if he was not sent to the hospital as soon as possible, Wang Shaoke would also die due to excessive blood loss.

Shen Lue took off his coat and tied it to Wang Shaoke's body to stop the bleeding.For the first time, Shen Lue believed in God and prayed that he would let Wang Shaoke survive. She was betting.

Betting on what is about to happen, but this time the bet is too big for Shen Lue.

While helping Wang Shaoke to stop the bleeding, Shen Lue looked at the place where there were only bloodstains, a trace of coldness swept across Shen Lue's eyes.

Because she remembered that person, just because of his last action and last word.

They actually - are still alive! ?

The author has something to say: Shen Lue's background, I will briefly talk about it in the extra episode.

The relationship between her and the Xu family will also be briefly introduced.

The story began to undergo subtle changes. There are actually foreshadowings in many places that people think are not important... Cough!

Keep going!
