Live with the forensic chief

Chapter 126 [126] Fish Tank

What made Lin Pu get goosebumps was not Xu Luo's point of the knife pointing at his neck, but the words that came out of Wu Li's deep voice.

He raised his head slightly so that the sharp point would not damage the thin skin on his neck.Xu Luo definitely didn't find the knife behind the sofa, that is, he had hidden it on his body from the beginning.

What a weird behavior, this knife is not a portable knife, but a hidden fruit knife.Who was Xu Luo defending from beginning to end?

What surprised him even more was that after Wu Li's action, Xu Luo in front of him didn't respond, and the whole person seemed lifeless.

This kind of intimacy seemed like a close couple flirting in front of her, but before that, Xu Luo never said what kind of relationship she had with Wu Li.What's more, Wu Li was expressing her deep affection, telling her how much she loved her lover, who was killed by dismemberment.

Wu Li pushed down Xu Luo's hand, and Shu Meng immediately pulled him behind him to hide him. Lin Pu was staggered by the drag, and he managed to stand still with his hands on his shoulders, looking at Shu Meng's broad back. Ups and downs, patted to indicate that he was fine.

Xu Luo said, "I just want to talk to you, Lawyer Lin."

"Is this an attitude of 'talking'?" Shu Meng sneered, "We won't talk anymore, let's go, let's go now."

"Lawyer Lin." Wu Li looked at Lin Pu, his hawk-like eyes fixed on him, with a smile on his face, "I apologize for Xu Luo, he was too impulsive."

Wu Li put her arms around Xu Luo's shoulders, raised her hand to stroke his hair, and said with a sigh: "Recently, he has been worrying about my affairs, so he is inevitably a little more radical in his actions, you don't mind."

"Isn't it? I can't be so rude in the future. No one will point a knife at others when talking." Wu Li looked at him in a blink of an eye, Xu Luo looked up at him with some confusion, and Wu Li said to Lin Pu and Shu Meng again, "He thinks I'm very pitiful... This time I lost the person I love the most, and I may be charged later. Although I didn't kill the person, but all the evidence is against me, I can't avenge my lover. He You are also trying to figure out a way for me, right?"

Xu Luo didn't answer, but still looked at Wuli without focus.From the moment he suddenly took out the knife, he was completely different from the people Lin Pu and Shu Meng knew before, like a lifeless puppet. Wu Li's hand.

"Think of a way to express it well." Wu Li said in a coaxing tone, "Don't use the knife at every turn. What should I do if I scare others?"

Lin Pu heard Xu Luo take a deep breath, and saw that he quickly turned away from the face looking at Wu Li, pursed his lips, and looked in the direction of Shu Meng and Lin Pu with his eyes wide open. Lin Pu felt that he was staring at him. , the eyebrows began to tremble slightly due to the force of the facial expression.After that confused expression, it seemed like a group of flames that were suddenly extinguished, and gradually dimmed until he closed his eyes.

Shu Meng stared at Wu Li, alerting him to his disadvantages to the two of them, but Lin Pu saw all this through his shoulder.

He had only one thought, that Xu Luo was really asking for help at that moment just now.

This kind of fleeting helplessness and despair, he has seen it in the eyes of many people, and he is definitely not wrong.

"Xu Luo." Lin Pu said, "...I'll go with you."

Xu Luo opened his eyes and didn't answer him this time. He turned around and suddenly hugged Wu Li's waist with one hand and buried his head on his shoulder.Wu Li is much taller than Xu Luo. He is broad, tall, upright and powerful. His athletic figure is wrapped in a black shirt. The back of his hand is covered with veins. He holds the back of his head and strokes his hair. The tone was quite gentle, like the tone of a lover: "...Okay, okay, Xu Luo, I'm fine."

"He's not going." Wu Li smiled and looked at Lin Pu, "Let's not get so nervous, I'll take him to rest for a while, you move to the restaurant, we sit down and talk about the case properly. "

"...Xu Luo!" Lin Pu ignored Wu Li, he rubbed Shu Meng's shoulder to talk to him, "...you...do you really don't need me to talk to you?"

"Lawyer Lin is talking to you." Wu Li stroked his head, trying to make him turn his head away, "answer him quickly."

"No need." Xu Luo shook his head without looking at Lin Pu, "...I'm sorry."

"Then go back to the room with me." Wu Li said, "Take a break?"

Xu Luo nodded, turned around and followed Wu Li.The two of them walked through the living room and up the stairs to the second-floor room.

After Xu Luo was taken away by Wu Li, both Lin Pu and Shu Meng relaxed their shoulders and breathed a sigh of relief.

Wuli seems to have a strong aura, and there is enough oppression in every gesture, compressing them in this small space, unable to move, and it is difficult to breathe smoothly.

Shu Meng turned around, squeezed his chin to force him to look up, and looked at the scar on his neck.The sharp knife still left a thin red mark on his neck, which was shocking to see.

"I'm so mad." Shu Meng lowered his head and lightly bumped his forehead, gritted his teeth and said distressedly, "What happened to you just now? You still helped him speak?"

"Xu Luo is really asking us for help, he just wants to talk to me." Lin Pu said.

"I don't care if he wants to or not. Next time he treats you like this, I'll be the first to stab him to death." Shu Meng rubbed his thumb against his neck, and his warm breath hit his neck.

Lin Pu was also a little scared: "...um."

"I know you're angry with me." Shu Meng let go of him, "I think I'm targeting him too much."

"I haven't." Lin Pu said, "Can't you see that he's acting weird after we meet again this time?"

"I can see that it's none of my business. I'm really a selfish and unkind person. I can't do what you do." Shu Meng said, "Let's go and see what they want to do."

Lin Pu thought for a while and said, "...I want to take this case."

"Whether you take it or not is your freedom. I have no right to interfere with your work." Shumeng said, "But you have to think clearly, Xu Luo just put a knife on your neck."

Lin Pu knew that the conflict between himself and Shu Meng had been rooted out, but everyone knew that it was unnecessary to intensify the conflict at this time.Moreover, Lin Pu knew that Shu Meng was doing it for his own good, so he couldn't refute it.

Lin Pu didn't think he was sympathizing with Xu Luo, he just wanted to know what happened to Xu Luo.He was too familiar with this kind of gaze. He had seen similar things in the eyes of Yang Lili and even more victims before, which touched him deeply and forced him to deal with it.

He and Shumeng were not idle, and he only started to look around at this time.The living room of Wuli’s house is indeed very large. In the corner of his elder brother, his “trophies” and all kinds of fishing gear seem to be placed. Those biological skeletons that seem to be fish are displayed in a museum. Distant places run through, like a small part of a large fish, such as a mutilated and broken skeleton of a whale.

It faces the dining table below and is decorated like a lamp.

Lin Pu looked at it for a while, and noticed the corner next to the dining table.

He patted Shu Meng and motioned him to take a look.Shu Meng and he both probed to see, it turned out to be a deep corridor.

Although the corridor was dark, some water could be heard.

"Then I have a small aquarium." Wu Li's voice suddenly appeared, making both Lin Pu and Shu Meng look back subconsciously.

He was wiping his hands with a paper towel, and threw it into the trash can next to him: "It's just been repaired, it's very beautiful. Go in and have a look?"

Lin Pu and Shu Meng looked at each other, and Wu Li had already entered first.Lin Pu followed him in, and saw the neon-like lights in the bathtub next to him suddenly turned on. Lin Pu had never been to an aquarium, but he thought that perhaps this is what an aquarium might look like.

All kinds of fish that he has never seen before swim across the colorful background, creating a charming scene.

"I have spent a lot of time simulating the living environment of fish, salinity, pH, temperature... I can raise even the delicate fish well. In order to let them be kept here in captivity, they will not lose their nature, but also be quiet and obedient. Child." When Wuli walked to the end, he could hear the sound of water getting louder.Lin Pu looked up and saw a large open fish tank at the end of the water tank, in which a school of fish gathered.

"Oh... this is my baby, the red-bellied piranha." Wu Li flicked her fingers against the glass, then suddenly put her hand into the water and flicked it vigorously.The whole school of fish quickly dispersed as if startled.

"You should have heard of this kind of fish. It has sharp teeth and a cruel temperament. Speaking of 'piranha' will make you shudder." Wu Li withdrew his hand and shook it, and laughed: "People are prejudiced against them, but they are actually very timid. "

Looking at the fish in the tank, Lin Pu suddenly remembered something.The courier from Mizhou, the box with the same red belly fish in the fish tank, isn't this the one sent to Xu Luo?

"Let's go." Wu Li didn't notice their strangeness, turned and walked out of the room, "Let's go eat."

"Xu Luo didn't say anything. The two guests are here today, so I can only prepare some casually." Wu Li unbuttoned the shirt in his hand, folded it up, and opened the bench for them, "Sit down."

Lin Pu didn't have much appetite, so he asked Wu Li, "Where's Dr. Xu?"

"Go to lie down for a while." Wu Li said, "I will bring him food later."

He put his hands on the table and looked at them from across the table, his eyes were dark and malicious: "compared to this, where did we just talk about?"

"If you want me to take the case, I need more specific information." Lin Pu said, "First of all, you have to contact the police and turn yourself in. Just be clear, this is a vicious case of mutilating a corpse. Since you have clues to provide, why don't you Offer it?"

"The other party is Japanese." Wu Li said, "Even underage, do you know what that means? You are a lawyer and you don't understand?"

"..." Lin Pu's hand holding the chopsticks shook slightly.

He closed his eyes and said, "It's been too long since this case, and the first scene of it has even changed because of your self-assertion, which has changed the nature of the whole case! Now that you want to continue, submit the case to me first." Handling it to the police is the most important thing."

"I never thought of asking the police to solve this matter." Wu Li slapped his chopsticks and leaned over, "Because he can't solve it."

"You..." Lin Pu said, "Then why are you looking for me, do you understand? Defense is not the principle of hiding a crime!"

"I don't understand." Wu Li pointed to herself, "Lawyer Lin, I'm right after entering this door."

"Then I won't take it." Lin Pu said, "You have money, so you can hire someone else."

Wu Li smiled, and took a bite of food: "Then you guys don't go out of this door either."
