did not meet tonight

They went back to the hotel to collect their luggage. Xiao Yu and Ye Jian went directly to the police station. On the way, Ye Jian asked, "The people from Search Island are back?"

"The murderer hasn't been found yet, and most of the people are still there." Xiao Yu said, the call just now was made by Captain Jin, who was still directing the search work on the island, saying that the director asked them to go to the office to record statements.

"I always feel that they might not be able to find Huaxi." Ye Jian frowned, unable to describe the weird intuition in his heart, Huaxi was like a shadow, knowing that he was there, but there was nothing he could do.Xiao Yu remained silent, and the car quickly drove to the police station. The police on duty took them to the office. Director Yan was already waiting there, and when he saw them, he stood up to greet them.

Director Yan was transferred from the Municipal Bureau, and he and Xiao Yu were old acquaintances. After a few simple conversations, the topic soon fell on the murder case on the critical island.Ye Jian described in detail what he experienced on the island during the past seven days. In fact, the process was not complicated. Even Huaxi's method of killing people was very simple. Perhaps it was because his purpose was very intuitive, so he did not hesitate at all.

Director Yan slapped his tongue when he heard it, and the policeman who was sitting next to the recording was also surprised. After sorting out everything, it was almost midnight.Director Yan sent them out, and said seriously: "If the criminal is caught, I hope Mr. Ye can come forward to testify."

"That's no problem, you can contact me anytime if you need it." Ye Jian said straightforwardly.

"The Municipal Bureau should send a special task force down soon, and then I will trouble Team Xiao to hand over the work." Director Yan said.

"I know, the next thing will trouble Director Yan." Xiao Yu is also one of the eyewitnesses and witnesses of this case, so he has no way to directly participate in the investigation.

They left the police station, saw the sky full of stars, Ye Jian could finally breathe a sigh of relief: "It's finally over, if there is another event like this in the future, even if the bonus is ten times higher, I won't go!"

"A few hours ago you deliberately delayed time on the island because of money." Xiao Yu stabbed him unexpectedly.

"Don't keep tearing me down. I worked hard for seven whole days, and I almost lost my life. It's good that I didn't ask them for mental damage fees. What's the matter with taking some money, I deserve it!" Ye Jian Said confidently.

There were few vehicles passing by on the street, and the street lamps cast a dim yellow light in the night. Xiao Yu was driving, his face flickering under the rainbow. He seemed to sigh slightly, and said, "Don't do this again in the future." Dangerous thing."

Ye Jian was in a daze, and it took him a while to say a word: "Do you care about me?"

Xiao Yu's gaze remained on the foreword, and his tone did not fluctuate: "The police force is limited, so don't waste public resources."

The little spark in Ye Jian's mind disappeared instantly in this basin of cold water, and he felt that he must have had a good head to believe Fang Yueze's words that played tricks on him.He simply leaned on the back of the chair and closed his eyes to rest his mind. When he was about to fall asleep in a daze, the car stopped slowly. He looked up through the window and saw that it was a well-decorated hotel.

He yawned and got out of the car, waved his hands and said, "Then I'll go first, see you later."

Xiao Yu stood at the other end of the car and looked at him: "Where are you going?"

Having not had a good rest for several days, Ye Jian's eyelids were already clenched, pointing to the street and saying, "Of course I'm looking for a place to sleep, there seems to be a guest house in front."

Xiao Yu frowned, the light at the entrance of the hotel was very bright, Ye Jian saw his face, subconsciously took two steps back: "What are you doing? Let me live here? Isn't it just a night, sleep is not sleep, I will go to the front guest house Just do it."

"Go in." Although there were only two words, but from Xiao Yu's mouth, it sounded like an order.

"It's too expensive here, I really have no money!" Ye Jian said with a bitter face.

"Do you want me to repeat it again?" Xiao Yu stood still, tapping the roof of the car lightly with his fingertips, making a dull sound.He spoke in a low voice, just enough for Ye Jian to hear clearly, and his expression did not seem to be forced, but Ye Jian had already walked towards the hotel without hesitation, and said as he walked: "It's good to live in a hotel, look at this place It's so spacious and clean, I'm sure you'll have a good dream when you sleep, it's so good, it's so good!"

When checking in at the front desk, he glanced at the price list on the wall, and his mood suddenly fell to the bottom. Isn't it a hotel? Why is it so expensive? A single room costs [-] nights. It's so easy to make money. Is there any law to kill people so blatantly?

He paid the deposit, took the room card in a hurry, and walked to the guest room on the second floor.

"Have a good rest." Xiao Yu said goodbye to him at the door.

You must have a good rest, it's so expensive, it's not enough if you don't sleep until the check-out time!Ye Jian forced a smile towards him: "You too, sleep well."

The guest room is next door. He opened the door and was about to walk in. Out of the corner of his eye, he caught sight of Xiao Yu's figure. He paused and said hesitantly, "Xiao Yu, thank you for coming to me."

Xiao Yu turned to look at him, the corners of his mouth were slightly curved, his eyes seemed no longer as sharp as before under the warm yellow light: "Go to bed early, good night."

"Good night." Ye Jian murmured and repeated, and when the door slammed, he came back to his senses and patted himself on the chest, "Have you eaten too much? Why are you dancing so hard?"

After sleeping on the island for so many days, he saw the bed covered with white quilts and even his eyes were green. He went to the bathroom and took a hot shower, fell asleep, and the next morning came soon after. It's past ten o'clock.He stretched comfortably, ready to go out to find something to eat.

There are quite a lot of restaurants near the hotel. During the meal break, Ye Jian heard the people at the next table discussing the matter of Boundary Island. The news spread quite quickly, but half-truths and half-fakes were mixed together. There were all kinds of guesses. .Some people even said that the police found a few more bones on the island. The murderer must be a serial criminal who committed crimes. He even described the process well, as if he saw it with his own eyes.

After listening to the gossip for a while, the noodles in Ye Jian's bowl were also finished, he left with a full belch, and saw a news interview vehicle slammed in front of the hotel, and a reporter and a cameraman came out of it. Front run.

What's the matter, such a small place can still come to big people?

Ye Jian looked around suspiciously, and heard the reporter asking the front desk clerk which room the survivors of Critical Island lived in. Ye Jian pulled back the leg that had already stepped into the hall, so it was really aimed at him!It took only one night, and even the reporters showed up, so their news must be too well-informed!

Before they found out, Ye Jian hurriedly found a corner to hide, secretly called Xiao Yu, and told him not to come back, there are reporters blocking the door of the hotel!

"I know." Xiao Yu's voice came calmly from the other end of the phone.

"How do you know? You have clairvoyance?" Ye Jian asked while observing the movement of the hotel.

"Because I'm behind you." Footsteps and voices sounded almost at the same time. Ye Jian was taken aback, and when he turned around, he saw Xiao Yu in casual clothes standing not far away.

"The person in charge of the live broadcast company has arrived in Jin County, and the family members of the deceased will arrive soon, and there will be more and more news media appearing in Jin County." Xiao Yu glanced at the interview car, and was already aware of the situation. Such things are not surprising.

"Am I going to be a hit?" Ye Jian began to plan to take this opportunity to advertise his detective agency.

"You are the only witness in this case now, and the police will protect your safety." Xiao Yu said officially.

"Then I still have to ask them for money!" To Ye Jian, nothing else was important, except this matter that could not be compromised.

"Clean up, let's go back to Yicheng in the afternoon." Xiao Yu walked towards the hotel, probably in a hurry, the news interview vehicle was already preparing to leave.Ye Jian breathed a sigh of relief, and quickly walked a few steps to catch up with him: "Have you handed over everything here?"

"The task force arrived in Jin County early in the morning, and they will take full responsibility for investigating this case," Xiao Yu said.

"I didn't expect your police to handle things quite quickly. Who are they here, elites from all walks of life?" Ye Jian asked gossipingly.

"It's Captain Qi of the criminal investigation team." Xiao Yu frowned, obviously not liking this way of breaking the casserole and asking the bottom line.

"It sounds like you have a big name. Which of you two has a higher police rank?" Ye Jian walked behind, without noticing his displeased expression.

"What did you have for lunch?" Xiao Yu stopped and asked him.

"Noodles, they taste pretty good. Would you like a bowl? I'll treat you!" Ye Jian pointed to the restaurant opposite.

"You should go buy a bottle of water." Xiao Yu glanced at him and walked into the hotel.

"Isn't there a water dispenser in the lobby, why waste the money if you have nothing to do?" Ye Jian didn't understand what he said, and followed him muttering.When the girl at the front desk saw them, she stood up and said enthusiastically, "Officer Xiao, your guess is too accurate. A reporter came to inquire about Mr. Ye just now. I have sent them away as you said."

Xiao Yu nodded to her, and walked to the guest room on the second floor. Ye Jian was stunned when he heard it, and chased after her and asked, "What did you tell her?"

"There is still one hour before the deadline for checking out." Xiao Yu deliberately changed the subject.

"I'm going to clean up now, right away, right away!" As long as it's about money, Ye Jian can forget about other things.
