Well of Mystery

Jiang Chenglu was yelled at by Bai Xiuqi. Although he obediently handed over his phone, his face was obviously not very good-looking.After packing up the dishes, he took newspapers and tools and ran upstairs to repair the doors and windows. He didn't go downstairs to meet up until Li Kun came over half an hour later.

Why does it seem that there is a cold war suddenly...

Although Bai Xiuqi knew that he wanted something from others, it was wrong to speak so aggressively; but Jiang Chenglu's domineering tone also had reasons to make people want to choke.

In short, in this matter, the two people are probably on the same level.However, since Jiang Chenglu was the first to put up the airs, Bai Xiuqi felt that there was no need for him to apologize proactively.

With the help of Li Kun, he boarded the car and hurried out of the Xuanjing apartment.

Speaking of which, Li Kun can be regarded as a half-personal witness of the murder case the day before yesterday, but because he fooled around in the nightclub until late at night, he missed the most exciting part.These days, there are also some onlookers who regard him as an "informed person" and want to get some so-called inside information, but unfortunately he can't say a word, and he is really holding back.

Now that Bai Xiuqi has been caught, Li Kun of course wants to ask clearly so that he can go back and show off.

It's a pity that Bai Xiuqi's attitude was cold throughout the whole process, not only ignoring him, but also putting on a serious expression of not getting close to strangers.

After almost driving to the city center, Li Kun finally couldn't bear it anymore: "Xiaobai, I said your air pressure is a bit low today, why didn't you sleep well?"

"The bed has collapsed." Bai Xiuqi said abruptly, "It needs to be changed."

"..."

After all, Li Kun also stayed in Xuanjing Apartment for a night, and he roughly knew what the bed he was referring to was, so he couldn't help but said in amazement: "These days, you and that guy have been squeezed on that door panel all the time." Bar?"

This question made Bai Xiuqi slightly startled, his mind turned inexplicably, and a somewhat nonsensical thought suddenly occurred to him.

"...that guy should be allowed to sleep on the ping-pong table downstairs."

"Are you a dove occupying a magpie's nest? There's no reason to drive the owner of the house to sleep in the open air!"

Now even Li Kun couldn't stand it anymore: "I said, the relationship between the two of you is very suspicious... No... Is it like I thought?"

What do you think?

Bai Xiuqi raised his head and glanced at Li Kun wordlessly, but didn't bother to refute.

If it wasn't for the fact that he was still holding the steering wheel in his hand, Li Kun would have jumped up: "I'm going... I'm just pretending, but you're actually real? You're so popular with women, this, this is unscientific!"

"There is nothing unscientific." After saying this, Bai Xiuqi changed his words in a second: "It should be said that there is something scientific in that apartment."

"It's true, nothing is scientific."

Li Kun nodded, and suddenly realized that he was almost being led into the ditch again: "No, that's not what I meant! I mean you, are you really with that Jiang Chenglu?"

Bai Xiuqi glanced at him out of the corner of her eye, neither nodding nor shaking her head.

Li Kun asked again: "...Really, are you kidding me?"

Bai Xiuqi still glanced at him.

Li Kun clutched his little heart: "...Xiaobai can think clearly, he is not an ordinary person. If you just play for fun, that kind of guy is much stronger than mandy, we can't afford to provoke him .”

"You still remember Mandy." Bai Xiuqi finally sneered: "Don't worry about my business, remember to call quickly for the maintenance fee of the apartment, and don't be wordy."

"Prefer sex over friends!" Li Kun gritted his teeth.

Their first stop in the city center was a medical rental company that rents out wheelchairs, and they chose a high-end electric one.Bai Xiuqi left his crutches in the car, took a wheelchair and led Li Kun to the mobile phone store.

Bai Xiuqi is not picky about mobile phones, and has used the same brand for a long time.So when I entered the mall, I went straight to the topic, and won two identical latest smartphones within 10 minutes.

Li Kun watched him take out the SIM card from Jiang Chenglu's phone, stuff it into the back panel and turn it on, and suddenly realized a problem: "You have never used Jiang Chenglu's phone, why did you bring it here?"

"I don't need it, but in this way, he doesn't need it either."

Bai Xiuqi's answer seemed a bit paradoxical, and then he called in the clerk of the mobile phone store and asked him to help transfer Jiang Chenglu's mobile phone data to another newly bought mobile phone.

This is not a difficult task, the technicians agreed, and started the relocation work after connecting the data cable to the computer.

Bai Xiuqi was watching, or Li Kun came over and asked in a low voice: "Is it not good for us to fiddle with A Jiang's mobile phone like this?"

"Since he can lend me his phone, there shouldn't be any privacy issues." Bai Xiuqi seemed to have considered this point a long time ago: "Besides, if there is something, I really want to see it."

Why didn't I know that you are such a person who likes to die... Li Kun silently shuddered, thinking that it would be better not to intervene in the affairs between the two of them.

Jiang Chenglu's address book was left on the sim card, and the things that needed to be copied were text messages, voice memos, and photo albums.The first thing the technician copied was the photo album.Although he didn't intentionally open the photos to view during the operation, the contents displayed in the thumbnails inevitably popped up.

"This... what is it?!" The technical guy let out a low voice.

The first thing Bai Xiuqi saw was a red photo.Look carefully, there is a pale human hand lying in the middle of the dark red pool of blood.On the left of this photo is a bloody ax and on the right is a panorama of what appears to be a long-abandoned cemetery.

In the next row, the one in the middle seems to be a tree, with a bunch of white fruits on it, and a little black in the center—it seems to be a human eyeball.

... Enough, just scanning these few photos is enough to explain the problem.

The technical guy's face turned pale, and he didn't dare to turn his head, so he secretly looked at the expressions of Bai Xiuqi and Li Kun through the reflection of the computer screen.

"Cough...these are...photos of special effects props." Li Kun quickly explained: "We do special effects for TV dramas and movies."

I don't know whether to believe it or not, but the operation speed is several times faster than before.Thanks to him, Bai Xiuqi hardly saw anything in Jiang Chenglu's phone.

But if it's all like that just now...it's really worth noting.

In order to prove to the technical guy that he is not a murderer or some kind of pervert, while waiting for the data to be copied, Bai Xiuqi called some of his contacts to report that he was safe.

Almost everyone said that they had visited his home, but were turned away.Bai Xiuqi could only explain that the police temporarily provided a hidden residence for safety reasons.

Among them is a calligraphy and painting agent who is often in contact with Bai Xiuqi. He is a little older than him and has a wife and children. He said that his wife just came back from her hometown in the northern ranch and brought back a batch of extremely fresh beef and mutton, especially beef. , the quality is not even lost to Japanese Snow Wagyu.He said that he wanted to give it to Bai Xiuqi to taste no matter what, and kept asking for his address, saying that he would deliver it to his door.

The hospitality is hard to come by, and another thought popped into Bai Xiuqi's head. He said that he and Li Kun were driving around the city, and they would come to pick it up in a while.

Hang up the phone, and the data on the phone has been transferred.Bai Xiuqi reported a string of addresses and asked Li Kun to take him to pick up the meat.

The meat was really good meat, carefully placed in two foam boxes with ice packs on top and bottom to keep it fresh.In addition, the painting and calligraphy agent also gave a basket of fresh lychees, which are bright red and juicy, which is really gratifying.

Bai Xiuqi thanked him for his condolences, said goodbye to the family after a few pleasantries, and asked Li Kun to help move the things into the trunk, but he was not in a hurry to return to Xuanjing Apartment, but directed the driver to go to the largest supermarket in the city go.

There, he bought a lot of meat and vegetarian ingredients, from seasonal fresh vegetables to delicacies from mountains and seas, and various condiments.Sitting in a wheelchair, he pointed here and there, and the hard-working coolie Li Kun took things. Soon the shopping cart was full like a hill, attracting many people's attention.

After finally arriving at the cashier, Li Kun asked Bai Xiuqi, who was taking out the money, what kind of magic he had while putting things on the cashier counter.Bai Xiuqi simply replied: "Stay in the apartment for dinner tonight."

In fact, it's not just Li Kun, Bai Xiuqi's plan is to invite everyone in Xuanjing Apartment to have dinner together, just like what his grandfather did back then.Use this meal to officially announce that you have joined the big family of Xuanjing Apartment.

Of course, the ideal is beautiful, but the reality is a bit skinny.

After hearing his idea, Li Kun immediately laughed mercilessly: "Oh, I said Mr. Bai, do you usually scramble eggs and soak them for convenience? I really think that I can settle the matter with my little ability." Got all these ingredients?"

"Don't forget, my grandfather is also a gourmet. This is called family history."

"That's what he learned from competing with famous chefs for so many years, don't think that culinary skills can also be inherited! Besides, aren't you still limping..."

Although it's all said and done, I still bought everything.In fact, Bai Xiuqi also knew in his heart that what he could do might be limited, but isn't there still Jiang Chenglu?Anyway, he will definitely not sit idly by.

Keeping this kind of thinking for granted, Bai Xiuqi finally set out on his way home after the purchase was completed.

It was only around four o'clock in the afternoon when we returned to Xuanjing's apartment. The compound was quiet, and no one was seen.

At this time, the disadvantages of not having an elevator came to the fore—Li Kun once again acted as a coolie, running up and down a few times before moving all the ingredients to the corridor on the second floor.But the door was locked - Jiangcheng Road was not inside.

"I saw him, across the way."

Bai Xiuqi, who came upstairs on crutches, pointed to the corridor on the fourth floor of the west building. Jiang Chenglu was leaning on the railing, as if in a trance.Li Kun waved his hand at him and shouted again, Jiang Chenglu looked down at him.
