purple mist

"At 13:41 noon today, a fire broke out at the Miyu Group Building located in the bustling section of Qishan East Road. The scene was full of smoke. If there is no response, this station will continue to serve you..."

With a "snap", the remote control of the TV was smashed severely, and the batteries in the outer shell collapsed everywhere.

Secretary Wei Ran remained silent even though the debris splashed on his legs, and stood aside with his head slightly lowered.

She knew that asking Xue Bin or reporting anything at this time would cause her to get angry.

When thick smoke poured into the office on the highest floor, Xue Bin had no choice but to take Xue Han out of the office and rush to the refuge floor on the 65th floor of the building.

The visibility was so low that a few bodyguards could only surround Xue Bin and Xue Han hand in hand, but Xue Han, who was choked by the thick smoke just a second ago, heard a crisp "ding" in the distance. "Then he suddenly got into trouble, and he used the shoulders of the two bodyguards as a support point with agility, jumped out of the encirclement with full power, and disappeared into the mist in an instant.

Only then did they realize that the "ding" was the sound of the elevator arriving...

The fire alarm is false, but it is true that someone came to rescue Xue Han.

It was too late by the time the bodyguard rushed over, and the only high-rise elevator became a unique "escape channel".

Xue Bin had a cold face, frowning, playing with the tinfoil sheet in his hand that was so damaged that he couldn't see the original face clearly, his eyes became more and more fierce and terrifying.

It wasn't until Wei Ran's legs were numb that he ordered in a hoarse voice, "Get out of my private account, suppress the news."

Wei Ran bent down obediently, the tassels of the exquisite brooch swayed, and she asked softly, "How do you explain the cause of the fire?"

Xue Bin smiled sadly, with a hint of bitterness, and gritted his teeth word by word: "The electrical appliances are aging, and the maintenance is not good, so I will be dismissed."

……

When the book is in use, I hate less.This dialogue is also applicable to the sofa.

So, after one person was already lying on the sofa, Yan Lingyi, who actively participated in the "rescue operation", and Chen Bingrui, who had strayed into the "Longtan Tiger's Den", had to sit on the ground, watching the rolling news with relish.

"Let's discuss it, Officer Lu."

Lu Wei who was standing behind the sofa rolled his deep eyes upon hearing this.

Xue Han, who has recovered well, has changed his posture comfortably on the sofa, teasingly raised his reddened eyes, and said lazily: "Next time I'm going to catch someone, can I do some deep work on the person I want to catch in advance?" learn?"

Lu Wei stared at him for a while, then gently moved away, and said indifferently, "It's because you gave too little information."

Yan Lingyi, who was bragging to Chen Bingrui about how brave he was, turned his face in disbelief when he heard the sound, "I still haven't figured it out, when did you two communicate well?"

"When I came here that day, there were two big bags of white flour on the ground, which almost scared me."

"White noodles?" Chen Bingrui stroked his chin thoughtfully, and asked Lu Wei with a smile, "White sugar and potassium nitrate?"

These two things can be made by mixing them together in a certain proportion. I think the thick smoke in the Honey Talk Building is based on this thing.However, Lu Wei, who is highly skilled in art, is afraid that he added some other things, otherwise it would not be possible to achieve such a terrifying concentration.

Although accidents will not happen as long as the ratio is perfect, it is rare for people who dare to use so many homemade chemicals at one time. After all, one mistake may really set the whole building on fire.

From a certain point of view, it is also a move that can be called crazy.

Lu Wei looked indifferent, noncommittal.

But as a colleague for many years, Chen Bingrui, who is good at observing words and emotions, feels that Lu Wei's current state is more like thinking about problems or wandering.

So he shifted his smiling eyes to Xue Han, and said in the spirit of 'If you want to know, you have to ask': "Master Xue, come to satisfy the curiosity of the people who eat melons? Have you been in this building for more than a week?"

"Oh? Your Excellency has a lot of status?" Xue Han tilted his head, and teased leisurely: "But seeing that Your Excellency is now wearing the title of a melon-eating crowd, the great master can still reveal some spiritual food to you."

"All I can say is, it does."

"Then..." Chen Bingrui narrowed his eyes and glanced at the absent-minded Lu Wei, and said after some consideration: "If you can hide from the first day of the new year, you can't hide from the fifteenth day. Does Master Xue still understand this?"

As soon as this sentence came out, the atmosphere among the four big men suddenly became strange.

One is someone the police are looking for.

Two are criminal police, one is on duty, and the other has been suspended for investigation because of this incident.

The other is a family member of the absconding suspect.

A few people who were chatting and laughing at the last moment, together with Lu Wei who was wandering in a dream, were finally pulled back to reality suddenly, but they also became more confused.

Lu Wei lowered his eyes, the anger and chaos that day were like a pile of paper money that was ignited, and was blown away by the wind after burning, leaving only a dark mark on the ground at this moment.

He'd look at the trail every now and then, to remind himself of what that bastard had done.

As a detective, he couldn't ignore it.

When the bank card that he gave was returned to his hand, he followed the clues to try to find Xue Han and dig the truth out of his mouth.

But does this truth really require him to go through so much trouble?

He counted his own heartbeat and watched the number in the elevator continue to rise, but when Xue Han, wrapped in thick smoke, rushed towards him due to inertia, and crashed straight into his arms, he suddenly forgot how many times he had counted .

Or maybe his heartbeat stopped at that moment.

It wasn't until the elevator doors were closed and started to descend that he realized that he had unconsciously rubbed the culprit into his arms, so close that he could clearly smell the fresh shampoo smell of that person.

He saw Yan Lingyi's shocked and surprised expression, and also felt the slight pause and struggle between himself and that person.

For a moment, he even floated into the air, seeing that he was not wearing a police uniform at the moment.

So, he pressed the person who was supposed to be questioned firmly on his shoulder, and at the same time he heard his deep voice.

"Don't move, I'll take you out."

……

The silence didn't last for a few seconds, but Yan Lingyi felt that he had been in this silence for several days.

He opened his mouth to say something.

"Why should I hide?" Xue Han suddenly raised his eyebrows domineeringly, and his exquisite facial features suddenly sharpened to a sharp point, instantly blurring his sickness and weakness at the moment, as if to emphasize, he repeated again: "I Why do you want to hide?"

Yan Lingyi was startled, he thought he was the only one out of state.

But when he glanced away from the corner of his eye, he found that the smile on Chen Bingrui's face had also froze, leaving only Lu Wei staring at Xue Han with deep eyes.

Xue Han spread his hands with a half-smile, and said rascally, "When did I admit it?"

Lu Wei frowned, and then quickly relaxed it.

Indeed, from the beginning to the end, Xue Han never admitted anything.

It's just that his behavior is very confusing-sending text messages to Yunye, smashing the phone, and letting Lu Wei choose to arrest himself or arrest Yunye and Wu Qingqing.

It's just that I didn't express what I did specifically.

There was a faint light in Lu Wei's eyes, and he said unhurriedly: "Did you not let Yun Ye and Wu Qingqing leave the country as soon as possible?"

"Hmm." Xue Han snorted with half-closed eyes, with a pleasant smile on the corner of his mouth: "When can a full stop have so many meanings?"

"Then why did you text him at that time?" Chen Bingrui was really confused.

He didn't understand the sweet talk jewels behind Xue Han, but Lu Wei and Xue Han's Yan Lingyi did.

"You deliberately."

Lu Wei stated the facts blankly.

He simply pretended that there was no way out in order to return to Honey Talk smoothly.

Xue Han didn't say a word, sat up from the sofa, his expression was serious, he hooked his hands at Yan Lingyi whose eyes couldn't stop shining, and said lazily when the other party leaned forward : "Say something nice and tell you good news."

"Father!!!!" Yan Lingyi bluntly chose to abandon his dignity.

Nonsense, of course he didn't want to lose his two best friends, Yun Ye and Xue Han, all at once.

And Chen Bingrui, who was affected by the sound wave, said, "?????"

"Good." Xue Han smiled quite satisfied, then restrained his playful look, and said quietly: "Yunye must not be the murderer."

He didn't give Yanlingyi time to be happy, and continued: "Miyu seems to be doing something similar to a social experiment, but the secrecy is too good, and I haven't fully understood it yet."

"However, I found some custom-made records from that year, among which Yunye's earrings are located."

"The diamond on Yunye's earrings is not a sweet talk diamond, but a very common South African diamond, worthless. But because it is the first gift Wu Qingqing gave him, this kid cherishes it very much."

He sneered, and then said: "Just as he was sending the earrings to the Miyu store for cleaning, this ordinary diamond was tampered with and engraved with the words 'dead but not stiff'. "

Yan Lingyi and Chen Bingrui were taken aback by these four words.

"At that time, I called him to ask about the store at that time, and the other party only said that he didn't know about it. Considering that it was not a big deal, I let it go."

"But when I actually saw the custom records, I finally knew what these four words mean."

He lazily opened his eyelids, his foggy eyes slid to Lu Wei who was aside, and said very seriously: "'Death is not stiff', in fact, it was 'sent' to Wu Qingqing in sweet words."

He obviously didn't point out everything, but Lu Wei probably guessed what he was going to say.

Sure enough, Xue Han looked straight into Lu Wei's eyes with some inexplicable moisture in his eyes, parted his thin lips slightly, and said in a low voice: "There are exactly the same four words in the string of jewelry that Chu Siqi bought the first time. "

"Chai Xi's death was indeed not an accident."

——More than 20 years ago, Wu Qingqing and Chu Siqi lied when they were children.

……

It was an unusual day.

Xiao Chaixi sneaked out of the house again without telling her mother Chai Fangjun. She couldn't wait to see her good friends Wu Qingqing and Chu Siqi who had promised to dance rubber bands together yesterday.

"My mother has to pass the main road when she comes back from get off work. Let's go play by the small road?" This was Xiao Chaixi's proposal the day before, and the two friends accepted it without any objection.

Not long after the rubber band was stretched, a square-headed car wobbled past, then backed up with a groan.

Chai Xi, who had her back to the square-headed car, didn't notice anyone approaching at all. She saw Wu Qingqing and Chu Siqi's terrified expressions, and before she could ask a question, a big hand fell from the sky and covered her mouth and nose. .

Chai Xi was terrified, tears streaming down her cheeks, her ears were buzzing in extreme fright, and she kept struggling hard.

Both Wu Qingqing and Chu Siqi's legs went limp, and the man's expression was contorted with excitement, even a drop of saliva slipped out of his mouth.

He made a "shh" gesture to Wu Qingqing and Chu Siqi, then pointed to the two of them, and then slowly stroked across his neck...

Until the man left with the weak Chai Xi, neither Wu Qingqing nor Chu Siqi let go of their little hands covering their mouths.

They shook like sieves.

The young Wu Qingqing gritted her teeth, picked up the rubber band on the ground with trembling hands and feet, and the rubber band was shaking non-stop.

"Qing...Qingqing..." Chu Siqi tightly covered her mouth, choked up and said, "I, should we...should we go to the adults?"

"No!" Wu Qingqing glared at Chu Siqi tremblingly, not forgetting to lower her voice.

That man's ferocious expression was like a devil from hell... He was more terrifying than anyone they had ever seen...

"I said... I said he will, he will come to us."

"Then... what should we do?" Little Chu Siqi burst into tears, she didn't dare to see that scary person again...

Wu Qingqing looked at the rubber band in his hand for a long time, stepped forward and grabbed Chu Siqi, who had cold palms, and said while running: "Let's throw the rubber band into the fish pond of Uncle Liu's house, and then... whoever asks, just say we I haven't seen Chai Xi today!"

"So..." Chu Siqi cried even more fiercely when she heard this: "So that person won't come to us?"

"……right!"

"Okay... okay."

——Later, they never jumped the rubber band again.Because there is no way for two people to jump rubber bands.
