"I won't just give up." Mary murmured as she watched Arlene's leaving back.

Arlene, who returned to the office, curled her lips a little irritably, saying, if Mary is really the suspect, isn't she courting death for what she said just now?For a while, Arlene blamed herself for her impulsiveness. Recently, Reid was not around, and if something happened, she might not be able to deal with it. In fact, if she was alone, she would not be afraid of anything, but because of the bondage, she I don't want those I love and those who love me to be sad because of myself.

Just as she was thinking, Mary also returned to the office with her usual expression.

For the next two days, Mary also insisted on courting Arlene, but the case that Reid and the others were dealing with still hadn't made any progress. Considering safety issues, Arlene didn't respond to her courtship, but she wasn't so targeted.

"Arlene." Arlene, who had just finished class, was stopped by Betty.

"What's the matter?" Arlene looked at the serious Betty with some confusion.

"I have a few questions for you. Do you have time?" Betty's mysterious expression made Arlene curious.

"Yes."

--split line--

The place of conversation Betty gave up the office, but chose the grass far away from the office.

"What's the matter?" Arlene was a little puzzled, who was Betty hiding from with this attitude?

Betty stared at Arlene for a while, and didn't speak until Arlene was speechless: "Is this what I want to ask you? What the hell are you and Mary doing? Is she chasing you?"

"What?!" Arlene couldn't help but choked when she heard Betty's straightforward question, and couldn't help but burst out in Chinese, "I'm also drunk."

"Huh?" Betty was taken aback when she heard the unfamiliar tone. The tone just now was in Chinese?Forget it, never mind, "Arlene, no kidding, don't you think the relationship between you and Mary is a little...um...weird?"

Arlene sighed, she forgot that she was in the open United States, a country where girls would be suspected of holding hands, after thinking about it, she chose to confess to Betty: "B, in fact, I think I would rather believe that she will kill me , instead of...uh...falling in love with me?" Thinking of this, Arlene couldn't help shaking her head, it was too scary, "I know her, but it's not as beautiful as you imagined, we..."

Arlene told Betty about her love and hatred with Mary, even though she didn't intend to involve Betty in it, but, you know, such a misunderstanding is not beautiful, not at all!

Betty was stunned when she heard this, but she didn't expect it to be like this, but: "I still think she likes you." She couldn't help laughing as she said that.

Hearing Betty's laughter, Arlene's helpless mood disappeared instantly: "Hey, how dare you laugh at me!"

After arguing for a while, the two went back as if nothing had happened. Arlene still saw Mary's face full of "love" when she entered the door. Thinking of what Betty said, Arlene's expression changed instantly. Turning her head, she saw Betty Aside with a sneaky smile, hey, can you restrain yourself?

Sitting silently on the seat, Mary walked over as expected, Arlene froze, and now she couldn't look directly at Mary, "Arlene, this is from a classmate named Joe." Then she handed over a letter come over. Joe?Why is he here again? Arlene had almost forgotten the name.

After receiving the letter, she politely replied thank you. After glancing at Mary, she lowered her head to read the letter. There were still various confessions in the letter. Arlene felt a toothache when she read it, and Betty's expression was even more irresistibly wretched. Arlene Can't help but give her a blank look.

Mary watched the interaction between the two and couldn't help clenching her fists, so don't blame me if it doesn't work.

"Dinglingling——" It's finally time for get out of class to end, although the class time in the United States is not long.

After Arlene said goodbye to Betty, she couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when she saw that Mary had left. Mary always wanted to go with her these two days.

When she arrived at the subway station, Arlene felt that she was so naive. Who was Mary who was standing at the entrance of the subway station as if waiting for someone?Well, Arlene didn't doubt at all that she was waiting for her, and then her thoughts jumped to Betty's teasing, my God, did Mary really love out of hate?Although she doesn't have any thoughts about gays and lesbians, she is a woman who likes men. Besides, doesn't Mary know that she has a boyfriend?

Thinking about it, Arlene had already walked up to Mary, Mary smiled, and the two walked into the subway together, silent all the way, and the atmosphere was extremely weird.

Back home, Arlene still felt quite uncomfortable, so she couldn't resist calling Reid.

"Hey, Reid, when are you coming back?" Well, now Arlene really misses Reid.

Reid looked at the suspect's information and said softly, "Soon, I think I can go back in these two days. What happened?" Reid stopped what he was doing.

"Well... nothing, I just want to ask you something." Arlene organized her words, but still found it impossible to speak, "Have you ever done a case about homosexuality, especially girls, or what have you heard? about such events?"

"The lesbian case?" Reid subconsciously remembered Lila's case, and then suddenly became nervous, "Why do you ask? What's wrong?" Reid thought Arlene heard or saw something, although he didn't feel anything about Lila anymore, But it is better not to have some misunderstandings.

"..." Arlene didn't know how to answer for a while. She didn't confirm that Mary was the suspect, and she didn't understand Mary's intentions, so she said that she liked her, and she felt a little narcissistic about the case because she liked her. , "Nothing, but, is there such a case or event?"

"...um...some...do you want to know now?" Reid replied with some hesitation.And Arlene interpreted this tone as delaying Reid's work, and said: "It's not very important, I'll ask you when you come back! Be safe, I love you."

"I love you too, let me tell you when I come back, go to bed early, good night."

"Well, good night." But are some things really allowed to wait?

The author has something to say:

I really think the names Joe and Mary are so earthy. .Ha ha. .Incapable of naming. .In fact, I almost forgot about Joe as I was writing. . .Thank you for your reading and comments. .Happy Solstice Eve! !
