fool.

Yin Miaozai heard the words, carrying a leather bag, pointed to the direction of the elevator.Xiaoman smiled at her, raised his right hand holding the takeaway bag and pointed in another direction.Except for some cars parked there, there is only one high-hanging fluorescent road sign with the word "Entrance" displayed when cars drive in.Yin Miaozai then walked to the elevator, but she still turned her face to look at Xiaoman, and asked, "Do you want to bring the dumplings up for you?"

She also poked her wrist and said, "Don't go too far, we agreed to have a meeting together tonight."

Xiao Man nodded with a smile, and Zhao You also waved to Yin Miaozai, agreeing wholeheartedly.He took the takeaway bag from Xiaoman's hand.The two walked side by side towards the word "entrance".

At first they just walked in silence, no one spoke, the parking lot was very quiet, it was getting late, no car came in, and no car left, until the sound of Yin Miaozai's footsteps disappeared about two minutes later, Xiao Man Turning around, she was no longer in sight, and the elevator door was empty, so he said, "Why didn't you have anything to say just now?"

Zhao You said: "It's okay." He scratched the back of his ears, glanced at Xiaoman, and replied with a simple smile: "I don't talk much in the first place."

Xiaoman was amused by his appearance, and nodded again and again: "Yes, yes, you are thin-skinned and don't talk much, you are a very honest person."

"It's not that bad to be honest." Zhao You said, "It's quite honest."

"Do you want Xiao Yin to perform more?" Xiao Man raised an eyebrow and looked at Zhao You.Zhao You told the truth: "I think it's good for her to be a detective with you and do something she wants to do."

He asked Xiaoman: "I heard Teacher Xing say that she plans to place an advertisement in their newspaper." He looked at Xiaoman, "Xiao Yin said, you have been very active these days, and you said that you want to expand your business, and even the pigeons flew away." You must be willing to help people find people, and help her develop an online homework assignment service, where she writes Chinese and you write math."

Xiaoman smiled hippie: "Isn't it illegal?"

"It's not my business either."

Xiaoman snorted and put his hand into his pocket.Zhao You just looked at him, with a lot of words in his mouth, but he had to wait for what his next move was before he could decide which words to dig out.When facing Xiaoman, he always has a lot to say, and there are always a lot of thoughts happening, and there are too many things they can talk about.He can tell him anything and is willing to tell him anything.

Xiaoman took out the package of fruit jelly that he hadn't finished eating in the car before, stuffed the bag into his left hand, held it, and said, "Actually, it's quite a luxury."

Zhao You said: "She usually doesn't spend much, and she hasn't changed her mobile phone for three years."

Xiaoman said: "When I showed you that video, you already recognized the person on it as Ge Junhua, right?"

Zhao You nodded: "I overestimated my ability."

Thinking of this, Zhao You couldn't help but feel depressed. His original intention of concealing Xiaoman was for his safety. It was too dangerous to investigate Ge's family in Yancheng.These things that put Xiaoman in danger will make him hesitate and worry him. He is not sure whether to tell him to remind him of the potential danger, or to keep it completely and let him deal with these dangers unilaterally. However, everything that happened on the island seemed to prove that he did not have the power to properly eradicate the dangers lurking around Xiaoman.But when he thought that Xiaoman braved the typhoon to land on the island because he was worried about him—also out of worry, he felt a little unspeakably happy.Zhao You couldn't help looking at Xiaoman's left hand. He was injured, and the injury was still serious. There would be scars on his hand, but he was still happy because of it. How could he do this?Zhao You's mood was complicated for a while, and some shame was mixed with happiness. He drooped his head, his eyes swept over Xiaoman's forehead, and there would be a scar on his forehead, and his hair was cut short because of the treatment. He has covered up any scars, but his new scars can cover up his old scars. Zhao You suddenly felt a tingling sensation like an electric shock, as if the bond between them made the story between Xiaoman and Lin Midong Completely covered, buried.It felt more fulfilling than ecstasy, and more guilt than shame.

Xiao Man said, "You underestimated my feelings for you."

He said: "You are afraid that something will happen to me, and I am also afraid that something will happen to you." He looked at Zhao You, "I didn't let you feel how important you are to me, so I apologize first."

Zhao You's mood suddenly became more complicated, and he couldn't hold back any longer, and said in a breath: "I was thinking just now, you were hurt for me, I am very happy, the scar you got for me covered the scar on your temple, I'm still a little proud, isn't it right, I can't describe that feeling, I've never felt that kind of feeling... this kind of feeling..." He looked at Xiao Man, not knowing what expression to use to face him, I don't know what I look like now, I just feel that my nose is sore, my throat is itchy, my heart is beating fast, and my head is in a mess.

Xiaoman rubbed his hair and said, "It seems that lovers have such complicated feelings. Anyway, people can feel wrong and feel happy at the same time." He said, "I can take care of myself. "

He dragged Zhao You along: "My fate is very hard."

As soon as Zhao You warmed his hands, his heart also settled down, and those chaotic thoughts suddenly left him, guilt, happiness, worry, some uncertainty, some confusion, some unknown feelings that he had never experienced, all of a sudden It doesn't matter anymore.At this moment, he walked together in Xiaoman, he pulled him, he followed him, such a moment seemed to be able to answer all the doubts and questions in the world.

Zhao You wiped his face, only then did he realize that the corners of his eyes were wet.He followed Xiao Man.

They had already walked around the underground parking lot on this floor. At this time, they came to the door of the stairwell. Xiaoman stretched out his hand. Zhao You pushed the door open first. A piece of jelly, Zhao You laughed again.Xiaoman asked him: "What are you secretly having fun with?"

Zhao You ate the candy and said, "I think it's quite romantic."

"What's so romantic about visiting the parking lot? It smells like oil and urine." Xiaoman pointed up and down. The white light from the energy-saving lamps in the corridor was almost dazzling. Urine stains loomed.A surveillance camera hangs above the corner.They are walking in the mezzanine from p3 to p4, and they are going to p4 soon, which is the bottom layer.

Xiaoman glanced at the camera hastily, and said, "You remember that Xiaoyan told us a few days ago that he met the director of the police station back then, and that someone asked him about the arson case before, and he even got in touch with him. Zhou Sichang, I mentioned this matter, there may be some other details in life, which made Zhou Sichang suspect that Yan Mingming was investigating him, but he didn't know what she had found and how much she knew, so he put it at home. According to the information obtained from Xiao Jing, the store only sold one to him at that time.”

Zhao You said: "Checked with Tai Lili, that stuffed bear has been in that cloakroom all the time."

Xiao Man said: "Actually, so many years have passed, and Yan Mingming confessed her father's situation, it's not a bad idea to reunite their father and daughter..." He sighed and shook his head: "Zhou Sichang also has his own After all, in the case of arson, Wang Dacheng asked someone to draw a simulated portrait of the suspect 20 years ago, and the person who drew it was Yan Yanan. There, he is still afraid that it will cause some unfavorable situation if he rashly takes Yanan out of the mountain."

Zhao You said: "Wang Dacheng said that he came to Yancheng to meet Zhou Sichang, maybe it is true, maybe he sniffed him when they met, Zhou Sichang didn't mention this when he saw me. The thing is that I don’t think it has anything to do with Yan Mingming’s case.”

Zhao You also said: "According to Assistant Yan Mingming's statement, she is usually busy with work in the company, and spends half a day at home on weekends to rest."

Xiaoman continued: "When the two of them are at home, it is very likely that they are only in the cloakroom. Yan Mingming has time to be alone. One is that it is on the second floor, and Zhou Sichang is unable to go because of his inconvenient legs. There are more women's clothes, even men's clothes are formal clothes, Lao Zhou seldom goes out, once he wants to go out in formal clothes, Yan Mingming should go to the second floor to collect them."

Zhao You continued: "After she discovered the camera hidden in the doll's eyes, she didn't say anything. Instead, she contacted the property owner and asked someone to get a safe at home."

Xiao Man looked at Zhao You, they reached the bottom floor, Zhao You pushed open the door, Xiao Man went out, took out a soft candy, squeezed it, looked at it, and said: "She received it in January. According to the investigation report, Lao Zhou bought the pinhole camera on January 1. It is reasonable to suspect that Yan Mingming had already discovered the existence of the pinhole camera when he received the report. She was afraid that others would see the investigation report in the company, but I took it home and didn’t know where to hide it, so…”

Zhao Youdao: "When Lao Zhou was away this year, she got a safe at home, and then framed the nanny for stealing, put the expensive watch in front of the camera, put it in the safe, and misled Lao Zhou into thinking that there was actually a safe on the second floor of the house. A safe that he didn’t know before, where valuable and confidential things would be hidden, and then she hid the investigation report she received under the tatami in the tea room on the third floor.”

"But later she was still worried, so she simply sent it back to Guo Qingxi and asked him to help keep it." Xiao Man asked Zhao You, "Why do you think they got married?"

"I do not know."

Xiaoman said: "Maybe Yan Yan'an said these things in his confession, and Zhou Sichang and Yan Mingming got married, so he should have told him?" He speculated, "He visits Yan Yan'an every year, and Yan Yan'an asked about his daughter. Zhou Sichang has been paying attention to Yan Mingming, so he chose to go to Yancheng for the elderly, and he would walk around Ximeihua. By chance, he met Yan Mingming, and he wanted to know more about her. Recently, how is she doing, whether her father's disappearance has affected her, whether it has caused her lack of emotion, whether it has made her distrust others and lack a sense of security, he really wants to know how he persuaded Yan Yan The consequences of Ann's departure..."

Zhao You took the candy wrapping bag in Xiaoman's hand and said, "It's over." He rolled up the bag, stuffed it into his pocket, and gently held Xiaoman's hand.

Xiaoman shook his head: "Everything can only be a guess, everything can only be a possibility."

Zhao You said: "I will find a way to get the content of the confession from Hang Fengnian."

Xiao Man said: "It turns out that Zhou Sichang specifically told you to say that before he left."

Zhao You responded: "He may feel that he made a wrong choice back then."

Zhao You said: "When he heard where Yan Mingming was found, he should have guessed it all."

Xiao Man said: "But he was not sure about the exact method of death of Yan Mingming, so he mentioned many ways of hurting people, pinching, beating... He doesn't want you to investigate any further, and hopes to convince you to kill Yan Mingming to close the case. He couldn't pass his own hurdle. After thinking about it, if it wasn't his choice back then, Yan Yan'an's murder of his daughter would never have happened. Yan Mingming asked him for help after leaving How Island, but he didn't follow his advice My hometown, but back to my hometown..."

"She didn't trust him. At the last moment, she chose not to trust him."

Xiao Man shook her head: "From the investigation report she saw, she may have thought that Zhou Sichang framed her father back then, and being with her was just for atonement. On the one hand, she felt that he would help him, and on the other hand, she felt that Zhou Sichang could not completely Trust him."

Xiaoman speculated again: "Yan Mingming should have told Lao Zhou what happened on the island. Lao Zhou didn't want to let Ge Junhua and his gang go, but he was ashamed to face Yan Yanan. He knew very well the involvement of the Yancheng police and the Ge family. , had no choice but to choose to leave multiple suicide notes, he hoped that even one suicide note would be fine, as long as one suicide note spreads out, even if Ge Junhua can only be charged with the lightest crime..."

Zhao You said: "They found a bookmark in a book in the cave. I saw it in Yan's house. It was a black cardboard bookmark."

Zhao You said: "He left such a suicide note to confuse us, delay our investigation, and hope that Yan Yanan can escape during this time. He doesn't want us to find Yan Yanan, and he doesn't want us to tell him. , he hurt his own daughter." He said, "I didn't fulfill his last wish."

"The truth is more important, isn't it?" Xiao Man said.

"Sometimes the truth is cruel."

Xiao Man looked at Zhao You: "Do you sympathize with him?"

"Who?"

Xiaoman smiled wryly, and said, "Pretend I didn't say so." He asked Zhao You, "Why do you want to be a policeman?"

"Ah? Didn't you ask this question before?"

"Is it really because you don't have to go home?" Xiaoman said, "One is because you don't have to go home, and the other is because you can understand what kind of people there are in the world?"

"Well..." Zhao You laughed and didn't continue.

"You are not interested in them, nor do you seem to be collecting any data." Xiaoman said, "Sometimes I feel that you think about many things, but you don't care about these things at all."

Zhao You tugged Xiaoman's hand.Xiao Man looked at him, and Zhao You said, "I am so mysterious in your eyes?"

Xiao Man shrugged his shoulders and walked a few steps forward. A smell of engine oil came into his nose, and he sneezed: "This is the first time I'm walking in the parking lot with someone else."

"Underground Parking Lot."

"The bottom floor of the underground parking lot." Xiao Man sniffed with a smile, "It's quite mysterious." He lowered his head and added two words softly: "Romantic..."

"One by one the cars just watched us quietly without saying a word."

"what?"

"Like a Witness?"

"Witness what?"

Zhao You suddenly raised his head and chest: "I think I will never forget this walk in the parking lot with someone in my life."

Xiaoman pulled out his hand amusedly, pushed him, pointed to a Mazda sedan and stopped: "Look, this witness is covered in ashes."

"Has it been standing here for a long time?" Zhao You said, "Has it been waiting for us?"

"Three months?" Xiaoman put aside his hand and walked to the front of the Mazda car. The original color of the car should be red, because it was covered with a thick layer of gray, which made it look brown.

Zhao You touched the tires of the car and found that the air was low. He guessed: "Half a year?"

Xiaoman wiped the dust on the window of the front driver's seat and looked in. There was a newspaper on the passenger seat. : "There is a newspaper, the "City Evening News" on December 2017, 12."

Zhao You leaned beside him and looked into the car together. There was a crystal snowflake hanging on the interior rearview mirror, the steering wheel was covered with a plush cover, the front and rear rows were covered with soft cushions, and the rear row threw two An unopened bottle of Nongfu Spring.

Xiao Man said, "Did the car owner have an accident?"

Zhao You didn't speak, and Xiao Man was also silent. The two stood bent and leaned against each other.Suddenly, Xiao Man's cell phone rang.He dug it out and saw that Lin Sheqian had sent a WeChat message. He clicked on it and handed it to Zhao You.

Lin Sheqian said: "I found the witness of the night when the child had an accident! It's Ge Junting!!"

Xiaoman looked at Zhao You: "Notify Hangfeng to interrogate her. Not to mention the matter of holding the bag before, it was also to defeat her. With this witness this time, she should be able to conquer her quickly?"

Zhao You was still staring at the inside of the Mazda car. He seemed to have no interest in Ge Junting's case at all, but he was not very interested in this car. With the new toy in his hand, he can take it apart and play with it, or he can tell what it can bring him at a glance. He doesn't want to take it apart or play with it, and waits boredly for the next toy to appear.His mind is mature, but sometimes it reminds Xiaoman of a child who is not growing up. He doesn't know when this child will go through the rebellious period, experience puberty, grow up, and become an adult.But what does it matter?It doesn't matter whether Zhao You will change or stay the same.He will go to experience with him, experience his change or remain unchanged.

Xiao Man straightened up and asked Zhao You, "Do you have any cigarettes?"

Zhao You said, "Didn't you stop smoking?" He added, "Let's drink less Coca-Cola these days...you're nourishing your bones."

Xiao Man licked his lips, leaning against the dusty station, Zhao You reluctantly took out a pack of cigarettes slowly.Xiao Man grabbed his hair, strode away, and said, "Stop smoking!"

"Really?"

"Let's go!"

"Go up?"

"Take the elevator."

"Oh."

Xiao Man looked back at Zhao You: "It's been a busy day, and I'm a little tired."

Zhao You followed quickly, and Xiaoman walked to the elevator and pressed the elevator.Two elevators, one stopped, the other descended from the 20th floor.

Xiaoman looked up at the beating and decreasing numbers, and said: "Zhao You, if one day you don't like me anymore, you have to tell me." He immediately said, "Don't say what happened, what happened forever You don’t even believe it yourself, do you?”

Zhao You said: "Forever sounds a bit absurd, and it's not very realistic."

"Really?" Xiao Man smiled, and his eyes slid to Zhao You.Zhao You lowered his head slightly, he didn't notice Xiaoman's eyes, he was thinking, thinking about things, and thinking about some practical things: moving house, assembling furniture, missing screws, grocery shopping, cooking, eating, taking a walk , ice cream in summer, roasted sweet potatoes in winter, bone soup, scar medicine, faded scars, protecting a plant, taking care of a vase... He was still thinking, after returning to work in Qingshi, he would have a meeting with Director Bian. After handing over the complete plan report, he even wanted to...

He told Xiao Man: "I would like to apply to appear in court as the representative of the investigation team when Cao Lv's case is in court."

Xiaoman nodded.

When the elevator arrived, the two went in. When they reached the 16th floor, they went out and went straight to room 1603.Xiao Man knocked on the door, and Yin Miaozai came to open the door, and when he walked in, he heard Xiao Jing talking: "Why do you think you can't change your mind? Think about it, there are her fingerprints on that bag, and there are still some on the outside." Well, what if it’s inside? How to explain? Oh, I like her bag, I’ll take a look, I dig and touch it hard, is this reasonable? Yes, fingerprints can be wiped off, so what if What kind of dandruff fell off? Didn’t take care of it? Then you have to use a vacuum cleaner? How can there be such a thing in a hotel room?

"There are also clothes. She will definitely leave traces if she wears them. It must be safer to take them away and destroy them." He spit and pulled Xing Tianxiang. Xing Tianxiang tilted his head, eating dumplings, and Zhao You, Xiao Man waved his finger, and Xiao Jing patted his thigh: "Then! She hid in her brother's car, went back to the humble house, and then! She went to the spa! In order to leave others who saw her in the hotel Proof! The clothes were probably thrown away directly, but the leather bag was so big that it was difficult to deal with, so it was temporarily left in the room her brother opened for her. As a result, Ding Mingmei operated on her brother's side. The bag was taken away! Afterwards, I think that when the siblings made up their minds, it happened that Ding Mingmei helped them destroy the evidence. Think about it, otherwise you said, what should I do with such a big bag? Cut it?"

Yin Miaozai answered: "It's also possible that she wants to keep the purse for herself?"

"I'll go, Mr. Yin. Strictly speaking, this is considered stolen goods, right? Why is she keeping it?"

"Let me go, classmate Xiao Jing, don't stolen goods be divided into rare and rare? And you are not a roundworm in her stomach, how do you know if she will be obsessed with ghosts for a while?"

"She is a thousand gold lady, even if the bag is several million, it won't be enough, right?"

"It's not necessarily true. I have to investigate her friends around her. Maybe she has a habit of collecting famous brand bags, so this one is missing? Hey, didn't Zhao You give you the bidding information, and asked you to check the bag at that time. Is there anyone in the company or the person entrusted by the bag who has anything to do with her? How did you find out? If she didn’t take the picture at the time, then the bag went around in her hands, and she might eat it Come in!"

Xing Tianxiang greeted Zhao You: "Sit, sit..."

Zhao You sat down and asked him, "Hey, I asked you about Cao Lu's book, which publishing house did you contact?"

Xiao Jing raised her hands: "Isn't this meeting about the Yan Ming Ming case? I've traveled through time?"

Xing Tianxiang narrowed his eyes and looked at Zhao You: "Lawyer Zhong said he would help to contact you."

Xiaoman sat down on the bed.Zhao You said: "Oh, it's nothing. I happened to be talking about this case with Xiao Man just now, and I thought that it might be easier and faster to go through the trial if we go to a publishing house related to ours." He smiled, "ISBN It's hard to get now."

Yin Miaozai gave Xiaoman a wink, and Xiaoman shook his head slightly.Xing Tianxiang said: "Do you want me to write more about the contributions of your police in the book, marginalize him, and piss him off?"

Xiao Jing rubbed his chin and said, "Are you trying to annoy him by posting on my account? That's right, this kind of pervert is definitely trying to gain attention. If you want to pay attention, then don't give him eyes!" He asked, "This When will the case be in court? Can I apply for an audit?"

Zhao You said, "Who knows..."

Xing Tianxiang said: "One year?"

Xiaojing smacked his tongue, took a can of Coke, opened it and drank it, and said, "If Lao Zhou is still alive, this case will definitely be solved in one go!"

Zhao You took out his mobile phone, and Xiaoman saw that he was correcting a typo in a document.Yin Miaozai quietly asked Xiaoman: "Are you watching "Batman" or "Spiderman"?"

Xiaoman said: "Lin Sheqian contacted me just now..."

Xiao Jing regained his energy: "What did he say?"

A few people formed a big circle, Yin Miaozai raised his hand, and announced in a rhythmic tone: "Then we are now officially, officially..."

Xiaoman's cell phone rang, and he looked at the WeChat message sent by Zhao You, and he found the online version of "City Evening News" dated December 2017, 12.Xiaoman couldn't laugh or cry.

Yin Miaozai patted Xiaoman: "Comrades outside the staff, can you stop playing with your mobile phone?"

Xiaoman made a gesture of apology, put down the phone, and still wanted to laugh.

"What's so funny?" Xiao Jing asked, frowning.

Zhao You also put down the phone, smiled too, and said, "You want to laugh when you're happy, don't you?"

Xiao Jing's eyes flashed: "Xiao Zhao, don't blame me for speaking straight, I am. I found that you are quite optimistic. You said that in your case, the prisoner is a psychopath, and it is very likely that he is pretending to be a neuropathy. You It's tantamount to doing useless work, this case, your teacher..."

Xiao Man said, "It's okay."

He said, "It's okay."

Zhao You said: "Lin She said before that he found witnesses from the night of the child's accident."

Everyone's eyes lit up, it was very dark outside, the lights in the room were reflected on the huge glass windows, artificial sparks were lit up in the sky above the city, and people in the room were discussing with each other in full swing.

"Bao, with the witnesses, it's hard for Ge Junting to get away with it, right?!"

"Shall we go over the timeline?"

"Zhao You, can that Hang Fengnian withstand the pressure?"

"I have half of it left, Xiao Zhao, you can warm it up and eat it together."

"Hey! Who smokes on this floor? Isn't this a non-smoking floor?"

"Hey, Zhao You, the case of that puppet, are you talking nonsense or do you have some inside information?"

"Are you talking about cults?"

"It's not easy for us to characterize cults. It's better not to worry about them. Xiao Zhao, if you keep using Xiaojing's account, then you can use it. Xiaojing, you can register another account yourself."

"Comrades who are not part of the staff, comrades who are in the staff, and comrades who are assisting in friendship, can we concentrate on clarifying this case first, can we change the practice of using a hammer to the east and a stick to the west? What's the matter? Those who can help the police to catch the bad guys, and those who can help the party and the country to clean up the disciplinary team, we will do our best, ahem... choked to death! Who is it?? Why do you smoke in the middle of the night without sleeping!"

"My number is pretty good, it's okay to use it together, what's the relationship between me and Zhao You, we are grasshoppers on the same rope."

"Isn't it a bit wrong to use this analogy here?"

"Hi, hello, I'm on the 16th floor. This is a non-smoking floor, right? I found someone smoking on this floor. That's for sure. The smell of smoke follows the air conditioner... Okay, okay, I'll trouble you guys." Already."

"I found Teacher Yin."

"What did you find out?"

"Why do you suddenly have a northeast accent?!"
