sincerity of lies

After everything was said, officer Qin did a favor.

He went to check the location of Xu Shijin's cell phone signal since Xu Shijin disappeared.The result came out quickly. In this week, Xu Shijin's mobile phone signal only appeared in two places.

One place appeared in a residential building in Qin City. After checking the owner's information, it was found that it was a house under the name of Yu Xiaoyu's parents; the other place appeared in a school.

After telling Ji Xun and Zhou about these two locations, Police Officer Qin scratched his head a bit embarrassed: "Now we can basically confirm that Yu Xiaoyu bought drugs. But..."

"but?"

"However, buying drugs that do not reach a certain amount does not constitute a crime. You know this common sense. Since it does not constitute a crime, there is no way to file a case."

"Yu Xiaoyu not only bought drugs. She also poisoned her." Ji Xun reminded.

"There is no evidence." Officer Qin spread his hands, "Student Zhou does have a bottle of poisoned water on hand, but how can he prove that the water was taken from a mineral water bucket? Even if the students in Class E were poisoned, how can they prove that it was poisoned? Because of drinking water poisoning? Even if it is proved that the drinking water is poisoned, how can it be proved that it is the poisonous water diluted with the poison that Yu Xiaoyu bought? Similarly, even if it is proved that it is Yu Xiaoyu’s drug, it cannot be proved that it is Yu Xiaoyu Poison yourself."

"..." Ji Xun was amazed, "Brother, in a sense you are really amazing."

"Evidence, evidence, evidence to—"

"If all the evidence is ready, why do you need the police and the police station, wasting taxpayers' money? Why don't you just hand it over to the court for judgment?" Ji Xun rolled his eyes, full of sarcasm, "Anyway, Officer Qin, you There is a pit in front of you, you fell into it once this morning, do you want to fall into it again now?"

"Don't rush, don't rush, let me think about it. What we can know now is that Yu Xiaoyu must have bought drugs, and it is very likely that he has poisoned... But the physical evidence is currently hidden by the school that doesn't want to make trouble, and the police have no evidence at hand. , will be very passive during the entire investigation process..." Officer Qin hesitated.

"Let's find a reason to set up the case first." Ji Xun squinted his eyes.

"Don't think it's difficult to investigate before investigating." Classmate Zhou was also annoyed, "Do you feel that you can't solve a problem before you do it?"

"Buying a small amount of drugs is not a crime...but allowing others to take drugs is a crime. Judging from Xu Shijin's mobile phone signal, she probably lived at Yu Xiaoyu's parents' house when she ran away from home." Officer Qin said suddenly, "Otherwise , just file the case for this reason?"

"Brother, your thinking is a bit weird..." Ji Xun was surprised, "And drug investigation should be the job of the anti-narcotics team. The anti-drug team has so many things to do, do you think the anti-narcotics team will treat this little person with no evidence?" Do you care about allowing others to take drugs?"

"You have the ability to come up with a better idea!" Officer Qin said angrily.

"Yu Xiaoyu kidnapped Xu Shijin, what's the idea?" Ji Xun Zhizhu held in his hands, "Xu Shijin ran away from home for a long time and hasn't returned, her parents should be very worried too, as long as you give a little hint, they will definitely call the police for her daughter's disappearance. The case can be filed in a logical manner, and then through Xu Shijin's mobile phone signal, I can search Yu Xiaoyu's residence to find new evidence, and everything will be solved."

"Do you think the idea of ​​'Yu Xiaoyu kidnapping Xu Shijin' is not outlandish?" Officer Qin was in a daze, "Everyone knows they are good sisters, right?"

"Is it important to be inseparable? The important thing is that this rhetoric is highly operable." Ji Xun.

"...Damn." Officer Qin thought about it, and found that he couldn't think of a better reason, so he cursed, "It's alright, alright, I understand, if you have nothing to do, go back to class—"

"Hurry up, time is money!"

"Understood, the investigation will start tomorrow."

"Tomorrow?" Ji Xun exclaimed, "It's only 10 o'clock in the evening!"

"... At night, I will go to Xu Shijin's parents first, and ask them to come over overnight to file a case, then I will go to my superiors and sign a search warrant, and finally, I will check the property under the name of Yu Xiaoyu's parents, and finally—" Officer Qin gritted his teeth, "Tomorrow, I will Can you come to the door with your colleagues?!"

"I'll tell you when the result comes out, so you guys, don't, don't do any dangerous illegal actions in private! If I know that you don't listen to the advice and act without authorization, then I-"

"Just what?" Ji Xun asked curiously.

"Just..." Police Officer Qin held back for a long time, and said nothing new, "Sue the parents! Sue the school!"

The two fearless students looked at the police and said "cut" in their hearts.

In any case, the purpose of coming to the police station today has been achieved.He went out with classmate Zhou, and now it was a little late, Ji Xun said: "You didn't go to evening self-study today, the teacher will sue your parents? Will the parents scold you? Or I will go back to police officer Qin to make a bold move." The certificate let you take it home and give it to your parents on business?"

"Are you really not afraid of driving Officer Qin to death?"

"Don't be afraid." Ji Xun muttered confidently, "Tell us the matter earlier, how can there be so many things later, thousands of mistakes, all his own faults."

There was a playful smile on the corner of Zhou's mouth.But the smile is like the morning mist, before it can be seen clearly, it has disappeared.

"It doesn't matter, you don't need to trouble Officer Qin." Classmate Zhou said lightly, "My family won't scold me, and I don't care about me."

"Why?" Ji asked.

Classmate Zhou didn't speak, probably because he didn't want to answer.Ji Xun added: "Family management is indeed a bit annoying, but sometimes people don't have willpower, so they need external help. Parents usually love their children. I think..."

He stocked up a stomach full of chicken soup for the soul and wanted to feed it to classmate Zhou.But classmate Zhou not only did not speak, even the footsteps following him disappeared.Are you angry?Could it be that for Zhou, the minefield and shadow of family is so big?

Full of doubts, he turned around and realized that he had misunderstood.

Classmate Zhou was not angry and awkward, the other party stopped in front of the blackboard newspaper in the corridor of the police station to think, and then said to him: "I remembered."

"What do you remember?" Ji Xun stepped back to the side of Zhou.

"That poem. Xi Murong's "Melancholy of Conjecture". I remembered where I saw it." Zhou student paused, his eyes were a little distracted by the memory, "It was a time when the class published a blackboard newspaper. The blackboard in the class The students took turns to be responsible for the newspaper. That time it was Xu Shijin's turn, and Yu Xiaoyu was there. Xu Shijin said that she wanted to copy this poem on the blackboard, but Yu Xiaoyu was not tall enough, so she let me. I copied this poem... I still remember that after copying, Yu Xiaoyu didn't thank me, but gave me a glare."

This is a very small matter, and even the malice hidden in it is insignificant.Therefore, as early as the day after copying, Zhou students left it behind.

Until now, when the mirror image reappeared, he found the memory belonging to the past in the corner of memory.

"Remember the last time we saw Yu Xiaoyu?"

If Zhou has realized something.

"Yu Xiaoyu looked at us with wary eyes, she hates us...she doesn't hate us, she hates me."

In Qinshi International Middle School, outside the signing event, there is a blackboard wall that extends half of the corridor.

It can be seen that when it was time for the school to replace the blackboard newspaper, more than half of the original content on the blackboard had been wiped off, and chalk dust of various colors left a trace like a rainbow on the gray-black board.

Ein, who was walking in the narration, cast a puzzled look.

The editor in charge seemed to be really afraid that he would run away. Not only did he call him countless times in the morning, but at noon, he deliberately followed him and watched him personally to ensure the smooth progress of the signing.

There are only 15 minutes left before the signings begin.

Looking in from the window on the side wall, you can also see the readers who are sitting neatly in their seats, holding the novels he published, whispering to each other, and looking forward to it.

Ji Xun stopped and picked up the chalk.

"Time..." Ain made a reminding voice.

Along with Ein's voice, there was the sound of the chalk tip rubbing against the blackboard.

On the blackboard in front of him, Ji Xun wrote the third section of Xi Murong's "Melancholy of Conjecture".

ah my dear friend

can anyone tell you

My guilt and sadness today

In two cities so far apart

bright as lights

"This is Xi Murong's poem." Ain said, "What's wrong with this poem?"

"It's nothing." Ji Xun laughed at himself, "It's just that I didn't understand the meaning of reading when I was young, but I thought I got the essence."

The longer I think about the things that happened in the past, the more doubts arise.

When he solved the case and left Qinshi, he and Zhou had experienced a lot and got along well.Although Zhou did not have a mobile phone and they failed to exchange mobile numbers, he deliberately left his mobile phone number for Zhou, and he used this mobile phone number for two full years. It was not until he returned to Ning City for an internship in his senior year that he gradually changed it. .

Classmate Zhou was able to contact him—then why didn't Classmate Zhou call him once to contact him after he returned to university?

Perhaps the same question also crept into his mind when he was in college, in the dead of night when people had nothing to do, when he was half asleep and half awake.

But this doubt only exists when I am alone in the middle of the night. When the sky is bright, it disappears like a dream in the sun.Remembering and forgetting again and again, Qinshi and Zhou have become a happy episode in his life, a beautiful note.No matter how happy and beautiful, it is all over.

But later...he got to know Huo Ranyin again, and experienced a lot with Huo Ranyin, so he understood that a long, long time ago, Yu Xiaoyu held her in his hand repeatedly What kind of sourness and bewilderment did I read this poem silently?
