Be in low spirits
Chapter 45 Love is precious, but life is more precious
Since then, Kong Zhixi felt that she disliked Li Li. She couldn't figure out why she was forced to marry him. With her personality, if it wasn't for the pressure of life, things like love and marriage should not appear in her life.
"Actually, did you understand what Xixi said?" Li Li carefully made tea for her, then pushed her favorite fish in front of her and asked nervously.
"Yeah." Kong Zhixi was still reluctant to talk to him and lowered her head to eat.
"So, have you figured out your obsession or figured out how to get out?" Li Li's words suddenly woke her up. Yes, if her obsession is fulfilled, she can leave. Then what is her obsession? Is it her father's preference or recognition? She put down her chopsticks and thought.
"Why didn't I think of that! What is your obsession?" She finally knew what this Li Li was for! He was the NPC in her life, and she could make full use of him!
"I..." Li Lixiang said it was her, but she was a little embarrassed. "It doesn't matter! We can still go see Cheng Xi!" Kong Zhixi felt that if Cheng Xi could find Li Li, it meant that she could also go find her father. Maybe if she found her father, she could leave here.
"Haven't you... figured it out? Why... do you want to go find her again?" Li Li didn't understand what she meant.
Kong Zhixi raised her lips and asked him with interest: "Do you like Cheng Xi?" Li Li was frightened by this smile. He didn't know what she was planning, but he had a bad feeling. "I..." He scratched his head, not knowing whether he should say it or not, but subconsciously wanted to distance himself from her. "My relationship with Xixi is not what you think. She is to me..."
"What I imagined? I remembered you said that it didn't matter to you whether you went out or not?" The dishes on the table gradually cooled down as time went by, forming a contrast with Kong Zhixi's hope.
"I said... I can't go out because..." Li Li still didn't say it. He didn't want to go out because Cheng Xi was indeed the regret of his youth, but Kong Zhixi's company was his only satisfaction now.
"If you don't want to go out, you can go and satisfy Cheng Xi's obsession. I'll go find my obsession, why not?" Kong Zhixi felt that this was the best way to solve the problem.
These words poured on Li Li's heart like a bucket of cold water, "You have always just wanted to push me out, and you have never loved me, right?"
Kong Zhixi blinked, she thought the only problem they faced was how to get out, but now he asked her whether she loved him or not, which made her feel guilty. If she said she didn't love him, would he drive her out? Then wouldn't she have no place to stay?
"Well... you have handled so many cases, you should understand that love... this thing is not necessarily a must-have in life, right?" She thought that perhaps she could make him understand by reasoning with him.
Li Li threw down his chopsticks, returned to his room and closed the door. Kong Zhixi sighed. It seemed that the negotiation had failed.
In the morning, Li Li went to the police station by himself, without waking her up or leaving her breakfast. She remembered that she had only investigated half of the kidnapping case, so she had breakfast downstairs and took a taxi to the old building area.
The property managers in the old building area are basically some old men who are trying to take advantage of the situation. Although it is the police who are investigating the case, they are unwilling to review the surveillance videos frame by frame. They are only willing to call up videos of a period of time and let her find them herself. She looked at them one by one on her notebook, and after a day, she found that solving the case was not easy at all.
Li Li sat in the office, writing his report, looking at the watch from time to time, and then at the stool where Kong Zhixi usually sat, hesitating whether to call her to ask where she was going, and then he saw Cheng Xi coming in with tea.
"Brother Li, I saw that my sister-in-law was angry that day, so I wanted to apologize to her. Where is she?" Her hair was no longer a dazzling red, but a low-key flax brown, and her clothes became plain. She looked gentle and lovely, like a girl next door.
"She's out on a case. She's not angry, but maybe...she's tired of the case." He turned off the computer, looked at the tea she brought him, and sighed.
Seeing that she was not there, Cheng Xi thought this might be an opportunity, and said, "Brother Li, I actually thought about what you asked that day. Sister-in-law is a person. She is different from us. She doesn't have much time left."
"What do you mean? What do you mean time is running out?"
Cheng Xi smiled and said, "You see, she is dressed differently from us. She has a heartbeat and a pulse. As long as she wakes up, she can return to reality. We are different. The only thing we can return to is reincarnation. She has never been in the same world as us."
It turned out that Cheng Xi knew much more than they thought. "So, how can she wake up?" Li Li had thought that they would be different, but he didn't expect that he was the only one who died.
Cheng Xi raised her eyes to look at him. She thought he would ask about reincarnation, but she didn't expect that he was thinking about how to keep her alive. "You really forgot." She was very disappointed. It turned out that she was the one who had no chance of winning.
"Even if she wakes up, you can't go back." In that case, she will keep him forever!
Kong Zhixi crossed her legs and looked through the boring surveillance again and again, and then her phone rang. It was an unfamiliar number. "Hello, hello, Jiangyin Road Police Station." She subconsciously picked up the phone and said the words she often said when answering the phone in the past.
"Officer Kong, my house has been robbed, please come quickly." The voice was somewhat familiar, soft and boneless, and full of temptation.
"Who are you?" She couldn't remember.
"I'm Zhang Huizhi. I'm a little scared. Can you come over and take a look?" It was Miss Zhang from the serial murder case. Kong Zhixi packed up her things and rushed to the scene.
When they arrived at the scene, Zhang Huizhi sat on a stool in the living room. The drawers, TV screen, sofa, wine cabinet at home, and ceramic bottles in the hall had all been turned over. Everything that needed to be broken was broken, and the clock was lying in the mess, ticking away.
"Miss Zhang, are you okay?" She didn't know why Miss Zhang called her, but as a police officer, she had no reason to refuse to respond.
Zhang Huizhi shook her head, looked up at her with tears in her eyes, and then hugged her waist and cried. When she had almost finished crying, Kong Zhixi asked her, "Do you know what exactly was lost?"
She shook her head again and said, "I haven't had time to count yet. I just feel...what if...what if the thief comes back again?" Kong Zhixi sighed, walked to the clock, squatted down, opened it and looked at it, and said, "Let's see if there is anything valuable missing first. Where's the nanny?"
"I let Aunt Shen take a day off yesterday." It turns out that the nanny's name is Aunt Shen.
"If you are worried, find a hotel to stay in first. I will call the police for you and someone will come to clean up the situation." Kong Zhixi stood up, turned around and looked at her tearful face, and couldn't help feeling sympathy for her.
"Will you come with me? I'm scared." She sat barefoot on the chair with her knees hugged, looking up at her cautiously.
"This...I'm afraid it's not convenient, and..." This kind of request was the first time Kong Zhixi encountered it. Zhang Huizhi ran down from the balcony and hugged her, begging, "Just one night, just one night, I'll book the hotel, okay?"
Kong Zhixi was stunned for a moment. Although she had no obligation to do so, what she said was possible. If something really happened, she would probably be to blame. She could only nod and agree.
While Zhang Huizhi was counting, Kong Zhixi called Li Li and told him about this. Li Li told her to just tell him the hotel name and room number after booking a hotel.
After Zhang Huizhi finished counting, she poured a cup of tea for Kong Zhixi and said, "I have already booked the hotel. I lost some jewelry, but it's not a big sum of money."
It was already dark. Kong Zhixi nodded and said, "Someone from the police station will come to register tomorrow. Where is the hotel? Let's get ready to go."
"Okay, you have a cup of tea here first. I'll go pack some things and be there in a minute." As she said that, Zhang Huizhi glanced at the tea in front of her and walked to the cloakroom to pack her things.
