Six years later, she amazed the world with her three children

"No." Shao Xiu refused decisively. "One of my comrades just became a father and he is on paternity leave. I am busy with work. Besides, the army has rules and it is not easy to ask for leave."

Chen Mo didn't expect Shao Xiu to refuse outright. She quickly said, "Do you think the money is not enough? Then name your price."

This concerns her life, so any amount of money is not a problem.

"This is not about money. I can't take time off. I understand your fear, but please trust the police. Once you apply for police protection, the police will protect you. It's getting late. Go get some rest."

"Let's go, Miss Chen." Xiao Tianruo also said.

Xiao Tianruo particularly disliked sleeping in the same bed with others, especially strangers, but Chen Mo was afraid and didn't dare to stay in a room alone, so she insisted on sleeping in the same bed with her, so Xiao Tianruo agreed reluctantly.

"Can you please not turn off the light? I'm scared."

"Okay, go to sleep."

Chen Mo closed her eyes, but as soon as she closed her eyes, the remains of Liu Meishan appeared in her mind. She immediately opened her eyes, feeling scared and sad.

"It's normal to have a stress reaction when something like this happens suddenly. If you still feel this way after a few days, you can go see a psychologist for psychological comfort."

Chen Mo was sweating profusely and didn't say anything. It seemed that she wouldn't be able to sleep tonight.

Xiao Tianruo was lying on the bed, thinking about the case in his mind.

"When you were dating the murderer, did he ever mention the three names Zhang Naiying, Huang Zhong, and Niu Lei to you?"

He had previously claimed that he had killed someone. Was it Zhang Naiying that he had killed?

Huang Zhong is in the funeral business and Niu Lei is in the timber business. Both of them have the financial ability to hire someone to kill someone.

This is very suspicious since both of them had clear alibis when Zhang Yuanying was killed.

"Who is that? I haven't heard him mention it."

Xiao Tianruo fell silent again. Were these two cases committed by the same person? Or were they two completely unrelated cases?

"what!"

It wasn't until Chen Mo screamed in fear that Xiao Tianruo lost his train of thought. Shao Xiu also ran in and asked, "What happened?"

"You...you...are so scary."

Chen Mo pointed at Xiao Tianruo's mobile phone. What she was looking at on the phone was the photo of Zhang Naying after the autopsy.

Realizing this, Xiao Tianruo quickly turned off his phone.

"Why are you watching this kind of thing so late at night? It's too scary." Chen Mo immediately got out of bed and moved away from Xiao Tianruo, "I don't want to sleep with you anymore."

Chen Mo left the bedroom. Xiao Tianruo also looked helpless. It was her fault for not thinking it through.

"Tianruo, then you should go to bed early." Shao Xiu turned off the lights for Xiao Tianruo and led her through the door.

At this moment, Chen Mo also arrived in the living room. Shao Xiu looked at her and asked, "Where do you want to sleep?"

"I'm sleeping outside, can you sleep here too?"

Look at the living room, there is only one sofa.

She didn't want to be with Xiao Tianruo, but she didn't dare to live in a room alone, so she could only accompany her in the living room.

"Then you sleep on the sofa." Shao Xiu got up and sat on the chair.

"I'm really sorry, but I can't keep you busy all night for nothing. I'll give you money, how much do you want?"

This question is ambiguous.

"I'm protecting you for my wife's sake. You don't have to be so utilitarian. Just go to sleep."

"You are worthy of being a special forces soldier. Your wife is lying in bed in the middle of the night looking at those horrific photos. Most men really can't stand it."

"She's a forensic doctor. That's her job. You'd better stop talking and go to sleep."

"Okay, I'll go to sleep then. You don't have to sleep yet. I'll be scared if you fall asleep, too."

"it is good."

Chen Mo looked at Shao Xiu again. He was sitting on the chair, very close to her, which made her feel particularly safe. She closed her eyes and unexpectedly fell asleep.

Seeing that Chen Mo was asleep, Shao Xiu stood up and walked to the bedroom door with light footsteps. There was no sound from Xiao Tianruo inside. Was he asleep too?

They both fell asleep. Shao Xiu looked around through the window again. The lights in the living room were off, the windows were open, and the door was not locked. He really hoped that the murderer would come tonight.

Now that he was brought to justice, he could return to the military region with complete peace of mind.

One, two, three in the morning...

He always listened carefully to the noises and would be particularly alert if he heard any sound near the entrance, but in the end, they were all other residents returning home at night, not the suspects.

At four o'clock in the morning, dawn was about to break, but the sea was still calm. Shao Xiu was disappointed, as it seemed that the murderer would not come tonight.

It was time for him to rush back to the military district, otherwise he would miss the morning training. He looked at the two men again, both of whom were still sleeping soundly.

Before leaving, he prepared breakfast and left a note for Xiao Tianruo.

[Tian Ruo, it was a peaceful night. I will go back to the military area first. You must be careful before the murderer is arrested. Lock the doors and windows at night and don't go out. Leave me a message on your phone if you have anything. Breakfast is ready. Heat it up before eating. Good morning.]

Chen Mo didn't expect that she could fall asleep, but in the end she was awakened by a nightmare. In the dream, the murderer was strangling her to death by grabbing her neck.

After she woke up from the nightmare, she was breathing heavily. She looked around the living room and saw that Shao Xiu was no longer there. Did he see her sleeping and go back to the bedroom to accompany his wife?

But now it was already dawn outside, so she was not so scared anymore. Just as she was about to get up and go to the bedroom, she saw the note Shao Xiu left for Xiao Tianruo.

After reading it, Chen Mo was surprised. In this day and age, there is still such a traditional way of leaving a note? And his handwriting is very beautiful.

Looking at the dining table again, breakfast has been set out and covered with a breakfast mat. It is actually very thoughtful that there are two breakfasts.

Special forces soldiers, the stereotype is that they are the kind of guys with outstanding military abilities but a bit rough in life, how could they be so meticulous?

-

Shao Xiu left a little late this morning. He stepped on the accelerator quickly and finally returned to the dormitory before the military district's morning wake-up whistle.

Gu Dongle originally thought that he would come back last night, but he didn't expect him to come back early, and...

"Lieutenant Colonel Shao, are you stimulated by Yang Xilin becoming a father? Why are you playing so intensely?"

After hearing Gu Dongle's question, Shao Xiu was confused again. What did it mean?

Looking in the direction where Gu Dongle pointed, I saw there were lipstick marks on his clothes.

Was this what he got on her when he was helping her up after Chen Mo fainted from fright?

Because Chen Mo was there last night, he didn't take off his clothes, so no one saw it. He felt embarrassed to be seen by Gu Dongle.

"No, this isn't Tian Ruo's."

"what?!"

"Major Gu, don't get me wrong. He's a family member of a victim. I don't know when he got here." After saying that, Shao Xiu quickly changed into his military uniform and prepared for morning exercises.

He couldn't help yawning when he was just finishing his morning exercises. Seeing him like this, Gu Dongle laughed again and said jokingly, "Lieutenant Colonel Shao, why do I find that you don't seem to sleep at night after you got married?"

It is normal for them to have little sleep, but it is rare for them to feel sleepy.

"I noticed that, too." Shao Xiu was also puzzled. "After my flash marriage, I spent every night of my vacation like a hawk. I slept less on vacation than when I was participating in exercises. This also confused me."
