If love could come back

15 · Suddenly the beginning of the chapter

"Did you see it just now? That man is so handsome!"

"I think Professor King is more handsome. However, it should be said that they are of different types, and they cannot be compared."

The two female students had just left the tea restaurant, drinking milk tea while chatting happily, not looking at the road at all, and accidentally bumped into Kingsley at a corner, and the hot milk tea immediately left a Picasso-style pattern on the white robe .

Naturally, Kingsley would not pursue them, and walked to the nearby bathroom with just a few gentle words of advice.

The closer it got, the reflection of a slender and slender figure entered the deep pool, gradually enlarged and became clearer.For a moment he thought he was mistaken, but no, it was really her.This is the first time he saw her dressed like a white collar, a simple white shirt with black trousers, elegant and generous, exuding a capable and lively temperament?br>

It had been a long time since the last time we met, he couldn't help being overjoyed, and without thinking too much, he quickened his pace and approached her.

The heart is connected, the heart has a consonance, the bright eyes flow inadvertently, and the elegant and calm slender figure floats over, domineeringly rushing into the eyes!

Heart trembling lightly as if waking up.

...It's better not to start, I even want to build a machine that can delete all unhappy memories of people...

Immediately, she stood upright, unconsciously clenched the handle of the briefcase.

"Hi, why are you here?" Kingsley greeted her with a smile.

"Yeah, I'm waiting for someone." I didn't know where to put my hands and feet.

"Waiting for someone?" Kingsley couldn't help but shift his eyes to the sign behind her. "But, this is a men's restroom." He intuitively thought that she was waiting for a female friend.

Just as she was about to speak, the person she was waiting for leaned out without warning and asked her, "Where is my handkerchief?"

Kingsley couldn't help being stunned, his eyes fixed on the man who appeared suddenly!

Upon hearing this, Xi Limei hurriedly took out a handkerchief from her briefcase that was obviously used by men and handed it to him. The man took the handkerchief and returned it, not knowing what to do.

"He... is your friend?"

asked with some difficulty.In fact, what I want to ask most in my heart is who is that person, but the words come out differently, and the frustration of not expressing the meaning makes him want to ask again but hesitates, because he is not sure whether it is suitable for him in his current position. Asking so many questions, I don't know if it will be too abrupt and presumptuous.

What puzzled him even more was, what kind of relationship do male and female friends keep each other's handkerchiefs so close to each other?

"Ah."

At this time, the man inside finally came out, holding a suit jacket that was mostly wet in his hand, thinking that he had to go back to the company in the afternoon to have a meeting with a client from the United States, he couldn't help but feel a little helpless and distressed.Seeing this, Xu Xiaoli immediately stepped forward and asked with concern: "Can it be washed off?"

"What do you think?" Qin Nuoyan picked up the clothes and showed her that the stains were rendered into a large piece by the water and covered with dense wrinkles. It is not difficult to imagine how this young master who is not good at housework washes.

Her face was covered with black lines immediately, but she should be responsible for this, so she apologized: "I will be responsible, give it to me." After taking the wet suit jacket and the crumpled handkerchief, she again Can't help but secretly laugh, the young master is the young master.

"Huh, who is this?" Qin Nuoyan seemed to have just realized that there was a third person present, and asked habitually raising his eyebrows. He sized up the gentle and refined man in front of him with interest, and it was not difficult to detect that the other party also looked at him. It's just that the look in his eyes is really - interesting!

"He is an associate professor of the University's Department of Physics, ProfessorKing." Xu Xiaoli had no choice but to introduce.

"Aha~~~"

Hearing the familiar title, he sighed clearly, his tone was obviously a bit deliberate.In the next second, the ambiguous and playful eyes looked at her jokingly, and the thin lips unexpectedly curved into an evil curve, which made her scalp tingle, fearing that he would say something terrible.So regardless of Sanqi 21, he grabbed Qin Nuoyan's arm and said to Kingsley before forcibly dragging him away from the scene: "Sorry, we have other things to do, so let's go first."

As soon as he finished speaking, he dragged the man who was obviously trying to make trouble and fled away.

Kingsley's deep eyes never let go of the back of the two who were leaving each other intimately. The man walked with his hands in his trouser pockets, with a very leisurely posture, a bit deliberate.Sharp girl seemed to glance at him, then hugged the man's arms even tighter and pulled him away.During this period, the man turned his face slightly, his lips moved as if he was saying something.

Sharp girl was stunned for a moment, then she pursed her lips and smiled.

Waves gradually rose between the flat brows, disturbing the peace in the past, and the eyes that fell in front of them could not be taken back for a long time, until they could no longer see the figures of the two. Kingsley still stood where he was, and the natural and intimate interaction between the two lingered in his heart.

I remember one time, they went on a date at the Hong Kong Science Museum.She also cuddled close to her wholeheartedly, hugged his hand lovingly, and worried whether he would think the Science Museum was childish.

At that time, looking at her timidly worried face was very cute.She suddenly felt teasing, and sure enough, she immediately lost face, a little annoyed at herself, a little worried that he would feel bored, a little discouraged.He could hardly help laughing, for the first time he realized that it was so funny to tease people.

I just realized that there is a person whose mood is worried because of you, happy because of you, ups and downs purely because of you, it is such a satisfying thing, because the other person really cares about you and wants to treat you very hard Well, that warm feeling is unique and irreplaceable.

When he confessed that it was just a joke, the instant smile lit up his face, and the sweetness flowed into his heart like a trickle, that kind of light and joyful mood was only because of her, and he felt pity for her share. Seriously want to cater to your own preferences.

He really wanted to treat her better, but it turned out to be counterproductive, and things went off the rails step by step... Why did it become like this?

Now, it is not him who is by her side and makes her depend on him.

No longer.

"Professor King? Professor King!" The extremely familiar female voice suddenly rang in his ears, bringing back his thoughts of leaving, and a hot feeling from his hand woke him up completely!

Instinctively, the hand let go, and the porcelain white cup fell to the ground, shattering in an instant!

Janet was startled, and immediately stepped forward to help, and couldn't help asking: "Professor King, are you too tired recently? I have seen you distraught several times, are you okay?"

Kingsley took the cold towel from Janet and put it on the back of his hand, feeling like the broken china cup.

"Do you want to go to the infirmary?" Janet has never seen him so abnormal, often in a daze without speaking, with a lonely expression.

Kingsley sat back on his seat, pressed the towel and felt the heat on the back of his hands being gradually dispelled by the coldness, but the coldness was like a deadly snake rushing into his heart along the blood, disturbing it from time to time, making him feel a little impetuous.

"No, I'm fine." He smiled habitually, unwilling to let inexplicable negative emotions dominate. "Is there something wrong?"

"LoSir and Madam are here—"

He immediately raised his eyes, his expression brightened slightly, and he didn't care about his grace to interrupt Janet's words. "Please come in." There was an unconcealable eagerness in the words.

Although Janet felt strange, she still hid her surprise, smiled slightly, and turned around to lead the person in. Kingsley unknowingly straightened his coat, and his obsidian-like eyes were filled with dazzling brilliance, faintly flickering with anticipation.

As soon as Gordon came in, he was obviously stunned when he saw his friend's eyes flashing past him to the person who came in behind him!

The puzzled look came back to Gordon, mixed with imperceptible disappointment.

"What's wrong?" Gordon, who felt puzzled, had question marks all over his face.

Kingsley regained his senses, suppressing the sense of loss in his heart, and said in a warm voice: "It's nothing. Sit over there." His eyes couldn't help but look at the person who came with Gordon again, as if he wanted to see through the mirage and find the truth behind the illusion.

Seeing this, Gordon thought it was because he didn't introduce himself. "She's Wendy, a new member of our serious crimes team. I took her here today to get acquainted, so that I won't go the wrong way when I send documents in the future."

"You are Professor King? I've heard your name before!" The petite Wendy greeted him. "hello!"

"Hello." Kingsley lifted his lips and replied politely.Then, without looking at her any more, and putting aside his inner doubts, he knew that Gordon wasn't here to hang out at the university.

"Is there any case?"

Gordon said seriously, "Have you ever heard of the spontaneous combustion of the human body?"

Kingsley nodded.

"As far as I know, the term 'spontaneous human combustion' is not accepted in the scientific community, but a number of scientists have recently pointed out that this is not nonsense."

"Then what happened to the spontaneous combustion of the human body?" Wendy leaned over and asked.

"Actually, spontaneous human combustion means that a person's body automatically catches fire and burns without contact with external fire. Since the earliest 17th century, there have been more than 200 suspected cases of spontaneous human combustion. Over the years, many scientists have devoted themselves to To reveal this phenomenon, the only convincing method until now is the 'wick effect'."

"Wick effect?" Gordon frowned, puzzled.

"That is to say, a person wearing clothes is like a candle turned inside out, the clothes are the wick, and the body fat is the wax. Even a small flame can penetrate the skin and ignite the fat. But this is not the ultimate In conclusion, because the scientists did experiments back then, they still couldn’t explain why most of the bones were reduced to ashes in the event that was considered to be a spontaneous combustion of the human body.”

"The victim we found was burnt to the point where only two lower legs remained, and compared with the upper body that was turned into ashes, the lower legs can be said to be very well preserved."

Wendy couldn't help but look at her boss who was calmly recounting it, and she couldn't help trembling when she thought of the weird and terrifying scene.A good person was ruthlessly devoured by the strange and fierce fire, and finally burned to ashes, leaving only two calves with traces of painful struggles.

However, this treacherous scene did not disturb the nearby villagers, did not hear the call for help, and no one saw the fire or thick smoke. The fire seemed to come suddenly, destroying everything in an instant, and then faded away without a sound.

"It really looks like the result of spontaneous human combustion. To completely incinerate a human body, you have to burn it at 2200 degrees Fahrenheit for 90 minutes, and then burn it at 1800 degrees Fahrenheit for 50 to 60 minutes. Generally speaking, that is Only crematoriums have the conditions.”

"The problem is, we found the body in the wild. After forensic investigation, that's the first crime scene."

Bizarre and strange cases immediately caused media speculation and rumors from all sides.However, Gordon didn't think it was just a supernatural and unexplainable spontaneous human combustion incident, so he came to talk to Kings, and believed that he would be able to solve the mystery.

After talking about official business, Gordon's keen nerves as a senior inspector detected that the next private matter had to be dealt with, so he asked Wendy to go back to the police station first, while he stayed behind.

"What's the matter with your hand?" In fact, it was discovered just now that the back of Kings' hand was red, and it should have been scalded by something very hot. "Would you like some burn ointment?"

Kingsley made another cup of coffee and put it in front of Gordon, not caring much about his wound, shook his head and asked, "By the way, was that your new team member just now?"

"Hmm." Gordon picked up the strong coffee and took a sip. "Why, you know her?"

"No. In the past, it was always the sharp girl who came with you, and suddenly there was a strange face, just a little curious."

"Oh. Because the sharp girl has been transferred to the public relations department. Our serious crime team is short of manpower, so we have to ask for more manpower from above. After all, sometimes a lot of things can only be done by girls." Gordon Drinking coffee to refresh himself, looking comfortable, said inadvertently.

"What?" Kingsley looked surprised, he didn't care about what his friend said later, and all his attention was focused on that sentence!

"Yeah. Don't you know? I haven't mentioned it to you? Maybe I've been too busy recently, I forgot." Gordon's tone was a bit irresponsible. In fact, he was really too busy, and Case followed one after another. To make him have no time to take care of other things.

...She was transferred?

"why?"

Gordon put down his coffee cup and turned his face slightly to look at him. "The answer, we also guessed [-]% to [-]%. You don't know for no reason."

Suddenly, Kingsley understood.

"I saw that she could stay in the crime squad before, and thought she would let it go."

"Sharp Girl is working very hard to hold on, and there's nothing I can do if she can't. I don't know if we overestimated the recovery ability of Sharp Sister, or underestimated your lethality."

At this time, Gordon, who has always been cynical, was still in the mood to joke.In contrast, Kingsley's complexion looked much more serious. "Then what should I do?"

"If you see her from afar, turn around and leave."

Kingsley looked at him, thinking he was still joking.The next second, Gordon finally put on a serious face and said: "I'm serious. I think she was transferred because she didn't want to have the chance to see you again. I know it's cruel to say this, but for her own good, we don't want to see you for the time being. Give everyone a moment."

Kingsley remained silent, without jaw, nor did he deny Gordon's suggestion.

She was transferred just because she didn't want to have the chance to see you again—this may be a true portrayal of Sharp Girl's thoughts, and she has indeed proved it with her actions.

"Actually, I saw Sharp Girl two days ago." After a long silence, Kingsley finally spoke.

"Huh? Really? Where did you see her?"

"In college. At the time, she was with a guy." He looked at Gordon and said.

"Oh, maybe it's a colleague from the public relations department." Gordon didn't take it seriously, after all, he didn't care as much about the sharp girl as Kings did.

"No."

Kingsley's tone was very positive and negative, making Gordon turn to him suspiciously. "How do you know it's not?"

After meeting that day, he went to the library to look up some materials, and a business school student at the next table was reading a business magazine. The person on the cover was very clear, and it was impossible for him to mistake the person who was with her.

In my mind, the back figure of the two people who were separated from each other appeared unconsciously again...

"Probably someone I know at work. I heard that the sharp girl is in charge of the charity party with the Norman Group recently. She is busy in and out every day. Sometimes I see her even too late to say hello. She is so busy than It can be said that it was even worse when it was in the serious case team."

It's just... "Is it someone at work?" Kingsley whispered almost in a whisper.

The author has something to say: the so-called cases in the article are basically sideshows, and the main plot is still about love, thank you!
