love story

The next morning, Lin Xin and Leng Yu got up early, and they went to the hotel restaurant to have breakfast. There was still an unopened "Dark Night" on the table.

Leng Yu and Lin Xin sat side by side, flipping through the morning newspaper provided by the hotel.There were not many people in the restaurant, but when Lin Xin raised her head and looked around, she could faintly hear the sound of flipping through newspapers.

Lin Xin glanced at a middle-aged man in a black suit with a tie who was sitting nearby. He was concentrating on reading the headlines of today's newspaper.

Afterwards, Lin Xin looked at the men and women at the other dining table, who were also reading the headlines of the morning newspaper.Sure enough, the headlines in the newspapers attracted these residents, and the tragedy of the murder of the night owl has spread all over the streets and alleys.

At this time, Lin Xin's cell phone rang. She turned on the phone and saw that the message came from Police Officer Lu: "Can any of you come to the hospital mortuary? Yang Liqing's family members have arrived."

Lin Xin quickly replied to him: "I'll be right there."

Leng Yu saw that Lin Xin was replying to the news, put down the newspaper in her hand, turned her head and asked, "Any news?"

Lin Xin put the phone back into her trouser pocket, and hurriedly drank the remaining coffee. The warm coffee flowed down her throat and flowed into her stomach. It was warm, but her heart sank.

She knew that the morgue was definitely not in the usual sorrow, and it was not the first time she had encountered such a tragic situation.

In the past, if there was a murder case, the family members in the mortuary would cry out loud when they collected the body, and even Lin Xin would be affected by their sadness.

"Yang Liqing's family members have come to the mortuary." She said calmly.

"Okay, let's go." Leng Yu put away the newspaper, stood up and walked out of the hotel gate with Lin Xin.

Lin Xin and Leng Yu took a taxi and arrived at the police station first.Officer Lu had been waiting for them at the door, Leng Yu turned to Lin Xin and said, "We will split up. You go to the morgue first, and I will stay here."

As he spoke, he raised the book "Dark Night" in his hand.

Lin Xin nodded and said, "Okay."

Very tacit understanding.

Officer Lu was a little surprised watching their interaction, but he didn't have time to ask so many questions.

He drove to the hospital with Lin Xin.The two came to the mortuary together, and from a distance, they saw a few men and women in casual clothes standing at the door of the morgue, and several medical staff, including forensic doctors, were also standing there beside the morgue, watching their mouths open and close slightly, thinking about it is asking for all the details.

When Lin Xin walked towards them, she expected to hear bursts of crying, but there was no such thing. The outside of the morgue was uncharacteristically calm.

When Police Officer Lu approached them, the medical staff saw him coming, nodded to him, and left.Officer Lu took a deep breath, and walked up to a group of men and women, only to see a young and handsome man among them raised his head. Lin Xin glanced at him, a little stunned.

Obviously, the man also saw her, and hurried forward, saying: "It's you." After that, he looked up behind her, as if he was looking for someone.

Lin Xin saw that his eyes were covered with mist, obviously he had already cried just now, and she was very curious about the relationship between this person and Yang Liqing.She quickly glanced at the other men and women beside her, and saw that one of them was Zhao Jiaren whom Leng Yu had mentioned, and standing beside him was another tall young woman, whose features were somewhat similar to Zhao Jiaren who was standing next door.

Lin Xin looked up at Zhao Jiajun and said, "Mr. Zhao, you and Yang Liqing..."

When Zhao Jiajun heard her mention Yang Liqing's name, his eyes turned red again, and he choked up, "I lived with her when I was young, and she can be regarded as my half sister."

Officer Lu walked up to them and said, "So, you came here to collect the corpse?"

At this time, an elderly man beside Zhao Jiajun stood up, nodded to Police Officer Lu, and said, "Yes, we are indeed here to collect the corpse. Yang Liqing's parents used to be housekeepers in our family, but her parents She died in a car accident, and we adopted her when she was very young. At the moment, there is no one else in her family, so we came here to deal with her funeral."

Lin Xin saw that the old man looked somewhat similar to Zhao Jiajun, and asked, "This is..."

The old man smiled and said: "My name is Zhao Chengxu, the head of the Zhao family." He reached out and shook hands with Police Officer Lu and Lin Xin.

After Police Officer Lu let go of his hand, he said: "You should know by now. Yang Liqing was murdered and died, so the Forensic Medicine Department can't let you take out her body for the time being. We still have to conduct further investigations for her." I can't hand her over to you for the time being, and I hope you can understand. However, since you are here, I think you may come forward to identify the corpse."

These men and women belong to the Zhao family. Lin Xin knew from their mouths that these people had a very close relationship with Yang Liqing, and seeing that although they did not cry on the spot, their faces were full of misery, she must have felt extremely uncomfortable. .

Zhao Jiajun and the others walked into the morgue together after hearing Officer Lu's words.At this moment, the Forensic Medicine Department had already cleaned up Yang Liqing's body, even if it was so, the exclamation could be faintly heard inside.

Then, I heard intermittent sobbing from inside, mixed with the voices of several people.

Lin Xin and Police Officer Lu were guarding the door of the mortuary. Just as Lin Xin was about to speak, a voice came from inside: "Come quickly, Mrs. Zhao has fainted!"

Lin Xin and Officer Lu rushed in, and saw Zhao Jiaren and Zhao Jiajing supporting an elderly lady, and it was Zhao Chengxu who called out.

"Quick, help Mom into the hospital!" Zhao Jiajun shouted.

At this time, a staff member not far from the morgue skillfully rolled out a wheelchair, and everyone worked together to put Mrs. Zhao on the wheelchair.

This kind of situation happened often, so Lin Xin and Officer Lu were not surprised by this kind of scene.

"Brother, I'll send Mom to the hospital first." With that said, Zhao Jiajing pushed Mrs. Zhao out of the morgue.

Her voice was hoarse, and she thought she had cried just now.

"Jiajing, get the medicine from the nurse there later, I'm afraid mom's heart can't bear it." Zhao Jiajun said.

Zhao Jiajing nodded, and when she passed by Lin Xin and Police Officer Lu, she gave them a sad smile.

Lin Xin made way for them to pass by, then turned her head and nodded to Officer Lu.

Police officer Lu understood, he coughed softly, walked up to Zhao Jiajun, and said, "Mr. Zhao, you have also seen that the murderer brutally killed Yang Liqing this time. You can cooperate."

Zhao Jiajun quickly replied, "Okay."

"It's too troublesome to go back to the police station, why not just stay in the canteen of the hospital?" Lin Xin asked.

No one had any objection to Lin Xin's proposal.

Then they came out of the morgue. Lin Xin looked around and suddenly saw a young woman standing not far from the mortuary. After she and Lin Xin exchanged glances, she lowered her head again.

However, the others didn't seem to notice the existence of this woman, and everyone walked forward without paying attention.

Lin Xin was keenly aware of the woman's footsteps that had just been lifted up, and when she saw the Zhao family, she shrank back.

In the short second of looking at each other, Lin Xin found some kind of abnormal emotion in her eyes.

So what kind of situation can make a woman's eyes full of sadness and sadness?

Because just now, Lin Xin clearly saw the young woman's eyes were red and swollen, her expression was sluggish, two lines of tears were still falling silently, her brows were tightly furrowed, and her eyes seemed to be pleading and sorrowful to herself.

Anyone who sees such eyes will be infected by her sadness.

After Lin Xin walked away, she turned around to look at her again, and saw that she was still standing in the same place. The step she wanted to take just now failed after all, and her body seemed to be frozen there, like a stone statue.

It's just that she is not a stone statue, she is a living woman with flesh and blood and feelings.

When the wind blew outside, Lin Xin saw that the bottom of her clothes swayed, but she still stood there firmly. She felt that this person was accompanying a soul that no longer had a flesh and blood body.

It can't be seen or touched, but it stays there stubbornly.

Had she been standing there long before anyone noticed?

But now, why didn't she dare to walk towards him to understand the situation when she clearly saw him?

Does she have a deeper relationship with Yang Liqing?

If she had nothing to do with Yang Liqing, why did she come here again?

After coming over, why didn't you say a word?

Who is she?

Lin Xin became more and more suspicious of this woman's identity. She deliberately left behind, gently tugged Officer Lu's sleeve, and said in a low voice, "Officer Lu, who do you think that person is?"

As he spoke, he pointed to the woman he met just now.

Unexpectedly, when they turned around, the woman was gone.Lin Xin was shocked, and whispered: "Officer Lu, go to the hospital cafeteria with them first, and I'll come back later."

After finishing speaking, he immediately trotted to the door of the morgue just now.She looked for the figure of the woman everywhere, but she never met again.She found a staff member who had been guarding the morgue and asked, "Did you see a woman outside just now? Where did she go?"

The staff member stared blankly at Lin Xin, and said, "Officer, I'm just working here, I haven't done anything wrong, so don't arrest me."

Seeing that Lin Xin couldn't explain anything to him for a while, she ran away again.

However, no matter how she searched, she never saw the woman again, not even a shadow.

She sighed a little, had no choice but to lift up her steps and leave. After catching up with everyone, they came to the hospital cafeteria together.

At this time, the young woman outside the morgue came out from the bushes again. Looking at Lin Xin's back, she was not sure why she hid just now.She touched the ring on her left ring finger with her right index finger, which was given to her by the woman who had been turned into a cold corpse in the morgue not long ago.

She remembered holding her in her arms and saying to her softly, "Baby, when you wear this ring, you will be completely mine. I promise you, we will leave here together in a short time." .We went to a place where no one knew us, opened a coffee shop together, and lived a happy, happy life with anonymity. No one knew us there, no one would bother us, and no one would break us up."

The words are still in her ears, but the person who whispered softly to her has long been separated from her.
