Flushing is an area in Queens with a large number of Chinese residents. Compared with China Street, it is a younger Chinese district, and its order management is relatively better.

Su Qin has heard of this place before, so far this is the first time she has really visited this place, the joints look quite spacious and tidy, frankly she said that the streets were full of yellow-skinned and black-haired people of yellow race in the past, she vaguely remembers the town There are also many Koreans, so I dare not rashly say that the streets are full of Chinese.

Walking here, it feels like I have returned to the streets of a certain city in China. Most of the signs I see are traditional Chinese or simplified Chinese, with a little Korean and English mixed in. There are very few Caucasian people on the sidewalk. This is a very dazzling feeling, and Su Qin feels inexplicably uncomfortable as soon as it comes out, because he realizes that he is now a Caucasian, which means that he is also very dazzling.

This made Su Qin smile helplessly, quickly looked left and right to find the street signs, and found an office apartment in search of his destination, where the old guest lives in room 19 on the 1908th floor.

This building is quite tall, but the entrance is a little hard to find. There is an electronic coded door sandwiched between two shops, but the so-called coded lock on this door seems to have lost its function. When Su Qin found it, the door didn't exist at all. The remaining stainless steel frame with many small advertisements still stands there. There are sound sensor lights in the corridor, and the light is not bad. Su Qin walked in and saw many people waiting at the elevator. She looked around, and unexpectedly There were only two elevators, and the other had a notice that it was under maintenance—this place really left her speechless.

Su Qin looked at the LED screen showing the elevator floor prompt. The elevator is currently on the 7th floor and will continue to go up. She frowned and smashed her tongue, then calmed herself down, smiled and asked a lady beside her: "Sorry May I ask, did this elevator just go up?"

"Yes... I saw Mrs. Huang who lives on the 33rd floor. If the food you deliver is not expensive, I suggest you take the stairs faster." The lady probably saw the cardboard box in her hand , I guessed that she was here to deliver food, so I kindly gave a suggestion.

Su Qin's heart suddenly felt unrequited—it's a pity that she has to be sent to the nineteenth floor, which is quite... high.

Su Qin resisted the urge to cry, maintained this smile and said, "Well, it's a bit high, I can only wait..."

The lady smiled at her.With a bit of consolation: "Actually, it's okay, a few minutes at most, just wait patiently."

"Well, thank you." Su Qin thanked politely, turned his head to look at the LED prompt screen, and at this time the elevator had reached the 15th floor.

After waiting for about 15 minutes, Su Qin saw more and more people waiting around him. Some of them who had no patience turned around and left to take the stairs, and more of them would wait for the elevator, which caused the elevator to go too fast. When they arrived at the first floor, there was a commotion among the waiting crowd, and they all moved closer to the elevator door. Su Qin was worried about the takeaway boxes collected in his hands, so he quickly hugged the boxes carefully in his arms, protecting them with his arms to prevent accidents.

Unexpectedly, there were a lot of people coming down. As soon as the elevator door opened, Su Qin felt the nightmarish Spring Festival congestion. Those who came out of the elevator squeezed desperately, and those who wanted to get in rushed in. Su Qin didn't move at all. I was pulled up by the two forces and went up in a daze. When I came back to my senses, I was already recorded in the corner, so I could only stand on tiptoe and say something loudly in Chinese: "Please press the nineteenth floor, thank you!"

What's more miraculous is that even Su Qin felt that it was very crowded, but the elevator still didn't report being overweight. Could it be that although there were many people coming in, they were all skinny...

Gradually, as the elevator reached the floor again and again, the number of people in the elevator gradually decreased. Su Qin saw the lady he had chatted with before, but because he had no desire to continue the conversation, the two just looked at each other and smiled. But neither of them spoke again.

After arriving at the 19th floor, Su Qin walked out of the elevator, feeling quite relieved. He decided to go down the stairs directly. This is like climbing a mountain. It is difficult to go up and easy to go down, so walking down the stairs will not be tiring. It doesn't matter if you walk around.

Room 1908... Su Qin looked for it according to the sign on the wall, probably because there are more Chinese people here, the floor and the house number all carry the unique domestic customs, and they all avoid the number 4, so there is no 4th floor On the 14th floor, and all numbers with 4, 1903 is directly after 1905. When he came here, Su Qin smelled a faint smell of rust.

It was very light, with a little taste of sorghum wine. Su Qin wrinkled her nose, dying, the wine bug woke up, she swallowed and continued to walk forward, the smell of rust in the air became stronger and stronger, and the aroma of sorghum wine gradually became stronger .

When Su Qin stood in front of No. 1908 door, the smell of wine and some peanuts, mixed with a strong smell of blood, came out from the crack of the door to stimulate her.

Su Qin's heart was very heavy. The fingertips of the hand holding the takeaway box had already sunk into the paper box. After telling herself to calm down several times, she slowly pushed open the half-hidden door.

The first thing I saw was the shoe cabinet, the corridor leading to the living room. The living room was lit, but there was no sound in the room. There was a TV cabinet on the side of the wall leading to the balcony, but the TV was not turned on. The cabinet near the entrance There is also a fish tank on the surface, and a cat is nesting beside the fish tank.

Su Qin was a little hesitant about whether to go in to confirm this point. In the end, considering that the police could never say that I smelled blood, which would make the police laugh, Su Qin chose to walk along the root of the wall on the other side so that her footprints It will be very clear and the damage scene will be minimized as much as possible.

But this wall will pass by the bathroom, Su Qin also looked into it by the way, it was empty and there was nothing there, then went to the corner of the wall, and finally saw the living room in its entirety——

The old man was lying next to the dining table, face down, with his feet still between the chair and the table. There was a plate of peanuts and half a glass of white transparent sorghum wine on the table. The blood spilled from between the old man’s face and the floor, not much , the color presented is relatively bright, rather than the dull color after drying.

Su Qin silently exited along the road with the takeaway box in his hand, and then knocked on the door next door. The owner was a middle-aged uncle. When he opened the door and saw Su Qin, he frowned: "I didn't order takeaway..."

Su Qin bowed slightly apologetically and saluted: "I'm sorry to trouble you to call 911. I delivered food to Mr. Liu next door, but something happened to him now!"

The man was stunned at first, then pushed Su Qin away and ran to the next door without caring about his grace, Su Qin knew it was wrong seeing him like this: "Don't go in...!"

The man didn't care what Su Qin said at all, and rushed into Room 1908, followed Su Qin and heard him shouting inside: "Uncle Liu! Uncle Liu...!"

Su Qin's heart was broken. She spent so much effort to protect the scene, and this evil pen directly destroyed it completely-following the man back to the house again, Su Qin was angry and helpless watching the man turn the dead over. She choked her body and performed cardiac first aid. She yelled several times, 'Please call the police, sir! ' got no response.

It wasn't until the man realized that his first aid was useless that he came to his senses and took out his mobile phone to call the police——

Su Qin felt that she had had enough of this kind of person, and that the whole scene was destroyed, she wanted to beat him up.

The man seemed to be emotionally broken. After doing all this, he sat on the floor with a dejected, sad and bewildered face, staring at the old man's corpse with absent-minded eyes.

Su Qin also stood silently by the door waiting for the police to arrive. When something like this happened, as the first person who discovered the deceased, she had the responsibility to wait until the police interrogated her before going home... She needed to find a way to contact her. Go to Clark and ask him to help you lie to Greina. When I was working part-time today, I met Clark by accident, and then I followed my brother to play or something, and I have to go home late tonight or something...

Su Qin took a peek at the man who was still in a daze, then stood a little outside, hid the whole person outside the house, looked left and right, and after confirming that there was no one else, Su Qin began to whisper Clark's name: "Clark, Clark, Clark..."

Superman has super hearing, Su Qin is not sure how far he can hear it, because with the progress of Superman comics, Superman’s hearing is different in different eras, Su Qin is not sure which era his superman cousin corresponds to. , although the appearance is the same as Henry Cavill, but it is vaguely different-after all, if it is Henry Cavill, Da Chao has no so-called college days at all, because he felt that human beings are afraid of unknown things early in the morning, plus His adoptive father died, and he ran away from home and wandered around.

A bit biting the bullet, Su Qin kept murmuring Clark's name repeatedly, but the police showed up and didn't see his eldest cousin. Su Qin was very sad.

The uncle who recorded the statement was very gentle towards Su Qin. Although he asked some questions in several ways, Su Qin did not feel impatient. This is a necessary procedure. In order for the witnesses to recall as many details as possible, ask When you need to ask the same question in a different way, Su Qin also tried his best to recall himself again and again, from entering the door to going upstairs to entering the house and following the gentleman next door, and then the husband called the police. Wait until the statement is made After the uncle confirmed that there were no other problems, Su Qin left his contact information and home address as required, and was finally released to go home.

The police also kindly sent her all the way downstairs. During the process of recording the statement, perhaps because the police officers made a lot of noise, several nearby households were finally alarmed. When Su Qin left, it was out of some professional habit , observed all the people who came out to watch, and found nothing that made her feel a little disappointed.

After Su Qin bid farewell to the police, she quickly wanted to find a phone number to contact Clark, and no matter what, she had to ask him to help her. Explaining the truth to Greina, Su Qin felt that according to Greina's temperament, knowing that this kind of thing happened to him would definitely make her give up her part-time job, so how could she make money!

As a result, as soon as Su Qin raised his head, Su Qin saw Clark standing in the crowd outside the police cordon. He also looked at her fixedly. After his eyes met, Clark blinked at her, and Su Qin was stunned. With a calm look in his eyes, he walked out of the cordon after the police who accompanied him handed over to the police who were responsible for maintaining the rank.

Su Qin didn't look back, and walked straight forward, because the police helped her open the way, and the reporters couldn't talk to her, but they felt the flashing lights, and they probably were photographed or something, which made Su Qin Very restless - Grena would have seen herself if she hadn't been watching the news! ?

As soon as Su Qin had that thought, he heard complaints one after another—"What the hell is going on? The filming was exposed!" ? ''Oh, what the hell is this shot! ''You bastard, what are you shooting without turning on the phone...'...

Su Qin was in a good mood immediately, and she could guess who was playing tricks with her toes. After she quickened her pace and moved away from the crowd, she immediately hugged Clark's arm and thanked him again and again: "Thank you, brother, you are so amazing!"

"...You seem to be fine." Clark was actually a little surprised, Su Qin was not affected by this incident at all, and seemed to be in a good mood; "I thought you were frightened..."

"I don't know, I just don't feel it..." Su Qin chose the truth between lying and telling the truth. After all, according to what Suzy recorded, what Peter told her, and the last details that Clark himself exposed, Suzy doesn't seem to be Ordinary girls are definitely flawed in character or even in personality; "I thought I would be scared, but my heart was very calm. My first reaction was to ask you to lie with me and lie to my mother. I have been lying to you tonight. With you... By the way, you should call my mother and tell me that you met me in a fast food restaurant by chance, and you took me to see a movie if you wanted to follow me. You had so much fun that you forgot to talk to me. She said once, and she will take me back later, let her not worry."

Clark looked at Su Qin with some relief, and shook Su Qin's hand firmly: "You are much more sensible, Suzy, I'm glad you have grown up..."

Su Qin smiled, and raised the takeaway box in his hand: "Although you rarely praise me, this is not a thank you gift I want to give you. I'd better bring it back to the store if the customer didn't eat it... The boss probably I don't want to know about it, but I still want to say..."

Clark couldn't help touching Su Qin's head with his other hand: "Don't think too much, no one wants such a thing to happen, it's not your fault..."

Su Qin was a little surprised by Clark's sensitivity, and didn't know whether he should boast that he was a superman. His super-intuition was very accurate: "...I just think that if I walk faster on the way here, maybe it's possible..."

"It's not possible, Suzy." Clark patted the back of her hand; "You can't think like this, life and death are not determined by maybe, you are not a prophet, even a prophet does not have an absolutely correct hunch, this matter All you can do is provide all the information you know, and the rest has nothing to do with you, understand?"

"...I know." Su Qin showed a relieved look; "Don't worry, Clark, I just felt that there was a possibility for a while, and I won't get stuck in it. I don't like to be on the tiptoe so much ...Call my mom quickly, it's almost nine o'clock, she must be in a hurry, fortunately I didn't give her the number of my store, otherwise she must have called my store right now. "

"Okay, I'll call right away." Seeing Su Qin's performance, Clark was a little relieved, and called Greina as she said. Although Greina was a little angry after hearing the call, she could confirm it. The daughter's safety was obviously relieved, and he told Clark to send the child back as soon as possible, so he didn't say anything else.

The two brothers and sisters who fooled Greina also let go of a stone in their hearts. Clark looked at the phone and then at Su Qin, and then handed the phone to Su Qin: "This is for you, Suzy."

"Give it to me?" Su Qin blinked in surprise; "This is not very good..."

"For the convenience of the future." Clark explained; "Look, just because you don't have a mobile phone, I can't claim to have received a call from my sister and rushed over, so I can only wait downstairs and worry about it, right?"

"That's true..." Su Qin understood when he saw Clark. Clark did hear her call, but because he couldn't explain to the police how he knew that Su Qin was upstairs, because Su Qin didn't have a phone to contact others, so Clark just Can wait downstairs; "Thank you brother...but what do you do when I take it away?"

Clark smiled: "I usually write something and submit it to the "Planet Daily" to earn some living expenses or something. The manuscript fee has been credited to the account two days ago, and I can buy a new one... I will pay you the phone bill in the future, and you work yourself If you make money, try to save as much as possible and buy the things you like."

Su Qin was so moved that he was about to cry: "Clark, you are my real brother! I'm about to fall in love with you!"

"What are you talking about!" Clark was so amused by Su Qin's words; "But then again, Suzy, if you really want to have a boyfriend in the future, you really need to find someone who treats you better than me, otherwise he might be... Well, teach well."

"Tsk tsk! Brother, you can also joke!" I didn't expect you to be such a big super-Su Qin gave a look of "I never expected it".

"No, I'm serious." Clark really wasn't joking; "If he's not as good as me, then he's really too ordinary."

"...It's very difficult to be better than you..." It's very difficult in terms of physique... After all, Clarke, you are not human at all-Su Qin has the feeling that Suzy will not be able to marry in the future. It is the fault of having such a brother.

"Will it?" Clark shook his head firmly after falling into thinking; "No, Suzy, it's easy to surpass me."

"... If you mean shorter than you, thinner than you, you can joke, it's easy..."

"I think Suzy understands the wrong direction... Well, let's not talk about it, you should be early."

"It's not too far away. Have you forgotten that I'm going to high school next year? I'm not too bad looking. Maybe high school will be a hit!"

"Listen Suzy, I think it's better for you to think about it after college. There are a lot of boys who do well in high school, and when they get to college..."

"Come on, Clark, I'm sure you won't keep what you talked about in high school in college, and I'm not stupid..."

"...Suzy, if you can, I mean, I think it's enough to have a relationship once..."

"Oh my god, Clark, you are so innocent...so do you have a sweetheart now, if so, can I just call her sister-in-law?"

"……not yet……"

"Then why are you blushing?"

"You read it wrong...the subway is coming, don't talk about it."

"What's wrong with the subway coming, tell me, brother, when are you going to let me meet my future sister-in-law?"

Su Qin almost molested Clark all the way back. She put the takeaway box directly into the refrigerator after she entered the house, and Grena chatted with Clark before turning around to scold her. He went to take a shower, but didn't rush to sleep, but crawled to turn on the computer and sent an email to the male god Reid after struggling for a long time, and briefly talked about the case he encountered today-Su Qin always felt that this case was not so serious Simple.

The scene was too clean. If the old man suddenly had some kind of disease, it would cause the seven orifices to bleed, and the blood flowed out was not a small amount.

But if it is said that he was murdered, but there is no trace of struggle, and it is said that an acquaintance committed the crime, but there is only one set of tableware on the table, there are too many problems.

Although Su Qin is an author who writes novels, she is not a real on-site investigator. She can profile a person's personality and psychology based on people's micro-expressions, but she cannot see the process of committing a crime from the scene... After all, investigating the scene It can be confirmed by looking at it from time to time, and more high-tech laboratory tests are needed, otherwise there will be no so-called crime scene investigation department.

But when this matter happened, Su Qin felt that he couldn't do anything about it, so he went to talk to Rhett—and it turned out that Rhett's focus was completely wrong.

[TO: Suzy

Do you feel panic or blame yourself now? I think you'd better drink a cup of hot milk and listen to some soothing light music. Of course, it's better to find a friend to sit with you for a while, or...or you can call me , let me chat with you, my phone number is XXXXXXX]

There was no fluctuation in Su Qin's heart, and he even wanted to pretend that he had never contacted this person. Although he knew that the other party was friendly and kind, he felt...

How should I put it, only I know that I am not a fragile child, but those who don't know will always treat myself as a child. With such careful care, Su Qin doesn't know how to thank him from the bottom of his heart, because In fact, she resents being taken care of like this...

But Su Qin couldn't tell the truth directly, so in the end he could only feel depressed by himself, and continued to sincerely thank the other party for his tenderness.

After struggling for a long time, Su Qin finally compromised and decided to play the role of a stimulated child and call his male god: "...Hi, Mr. Reed..."

"Well, it's me... uh, Suzy you don't have to... I mean you can just call me Rhett or Spencer, your voice is a little tired, but there is no back nasal... Suzy you... Of course not everyone Girls will be scared to cry, in fact, the vast majority of people who witness the death for the first time will be scared to lose the ability to express emotions..."

"I'm very calm." Su Qin interrupted him; "I didn't think about anything at the moment I saw it, and I could even calmly go to the next door to ask for help and call the police...I met Clark downstairs...Clark is My cousin, he gave me his mobile phone, I only have my own mobile phone now..."

"Wow, this coincidence...Of course I don't doubt what you mean, your psychological endurance is a bit strong...so you don't feel afraid now, and you don't blame yourself...Well, let me ask a little unfriendly Question, are you excited?"

"Nothing." Su Qin's tone was still very flat, but his voice was indeed a little tired; "When I met Clark, I had the idea of ​​whether he could be saved if I arrived earlier...but I figured it out soon , It doesn’t matter if I come early or late, the person who killed him is not me, and I don’t have the ability to predict that he needs me to save..."

"Your self-regulation ability is also very strong." Reid almost admired this little girl. Could it be that her childhood experience affected her, so Su Qin has excellent psychological endurance and self-regulation in things like this?

"What I want to talk to you is... just from those messages, can you tell whether it was an acquaintance who committed the crime or committed suicide or an accident?"

"...Well, your curiosity is also very heavy..." Although Reid said so, he had already begun to analyze what Su Qin had just sent in the email; People who are treated casually..."

Su Qin was not at all puzzled by the relief of being answered, but felt a pain in his throat: "... I can guess who it is when you talk to this level..."

"...Maybe we should talk about something else, such a topic is too heavy for you...Uh, you, do you like watching movies or books?" It wasn't that he caused the child a second injury. Spencer hurriedly changed the topic, but he couldn't figure out how to change it naturally, so he could only ask such a blunt question.

Su Qin didn't care too much, and replied when asked: "Look, horror movies and science fiction movies. If you read books, it's "To Kill a Mockingbird" and "Rashomon"... What I read is very messy. , if you ask me, it’s hard for me to remember all of them at once.”

"...I want to say, you make me feel that my understanding of contemporary teenagers is wrong..." Rhett smiled almost self-deprecatingly; "Wow... Rashomon? Hmm...Evil to evil, Then evil is also justified?"

"It's just self-interest." Although Su Qin knew that the little doctor was a living encyclopedia, it was another feeling to experience it personally; "Besides, it is reasonable to use evil to control evil. I think this kind of thinking is dangerous, and everyone thinks so What else is the law doing?"

"...Some things I said are inappropriate, you know, I am..."

"I believe that you have been doing your best to ensure that the law is fair and strict." At least before she came here, in the plot she saw, Reid had never been blackened, and he had always been a good partner of justice.

"So, should I say thank you for your trust now?"

"You're welcome, after all, you're handsome." Su Qin, who started to tease the innocent boy without saying a word, was subconsciously distracted.

However, the big boy Reid on the other side of the phone blushed because he was too shy: "...um, uh... this, uh, thank you for this too..."

"Why are you so cute anyway? This shouldn't be the first time someone praised you for being handsome?" Su Qin could hardly help laughing out loud.

"Ah, of course, of course it's not the first time...As far as I know, I actually look pretty good, and some people have said about me...but their tone is not the same as yours, yours...more like is an intuitive description of..."

"Their admiration with a certain tendency - so you want me to have that tendency?" Su Qin must have done this on purpose, she just likes to tease such shy boys!

"Oh, no, no, I... I'm just answering your question, I don't mean to hope that you also... you have hints of that tendency to me too... OK, it's getting late, since you have no problems, We should all go to bed, goodnight Suzy!"

'beep--'

Listening to the busy tone, Su Qin seemed to have seen the little boy Rhett hung up the phone in a hurry, and almost rolled off his chair laughing——Mom is so cute when he provokes the child!

Such a cute blue boy made her want to bully him even more, what should I do!

The author has something to say: Summary of this chapter——
