[Rat and Cat] White House Detective Agency

When Liu Jie heard Bai Yutang say this, she looked slightly embarrassed, and then said hesitantly, "Okay...okay."

Bai Yutang squinted his eyes and raised the corners of his mouth, Zhan Zhao laughed softly when he saw him like this.

"First of all, let's talk about Cheng Yaxuan's suicide. She did commit suicide, that's right. But as you said that day, the reason why she chose to commit suicide is probably related to your little sister, Qian Wenxin. related to his death." Bai Yutang crossed his hands and said, "Let's not talk about Qian Wenxin's tragic accident, let's continue to talk about Cheng Yaxuan. According to you, she is most likely because she 'saw' Qian Wenxin and couldn't handle it. I chose to commit suicide because of the fear and guilt in my heart."

"Then, why does she feel fear and guilt?...You don't need to rush to answer," Bai Yutang saw Liu Jie's expression eager to explain, and stopped her from speaking, "Next is you. Miss Liu was seriously injured in the haunted house, but You seem to have never told us the reason? Originally, my good sister committed suicide, so she shouldn’t go to entertainment places like haunted houses, but I remember you said that it was Qian Wenxin who invited you to go.”

Bai Yutang stretched out his hand and made a "please" gesture, "Now it's time for you to tell me the ins and outs of this matter."

Liu Jie slightly raised her eyes to look at Bai Yutang and Zhan Zhao, her lips were slightly pursed, she did not rush to speak, but took her time before speaking.

"Actually, that day, when I went to visit Uncle Cheng and returned to the hotel, I saw a piece of paper on the table in the room, and the words on it were all typed out, but," Liu Jie grabbed her slightly messy hair with both hands, "But The signature is actually Qian Wenxin? Qian Wenxin...I only know one Qian Wenxin in my life."

"I was looking down with my head down. At that moment, the closed window suddenly made a sound of wanting to be knocked by something. I instinctively raised my head. It was her..." Liu Jie raised her voice, "Yes Xinxin!"

Bai Yutang and Zhan Zhao looked at each other calmly, then continued to listen to her.

"It's really Xinxin...she was still dressed up when she died, school uniform, braids..." Liu Jie started to cry as she spoke, "And...the blood on her face...Xinxin..."

Liu Jie's shoulders twitched, and the only sound left in the room was her intermittent sobbing.

"Is that why you went to the haunted house for an appointment according to that message? Then who did you meet in the haunted house? You must have seen the face of the person who attacked you, right?" Bai Yutang asked her.

Liu Jie's crying paused, and then she coughed a few times, "Actually... I was too scared at the time, and, besides, my back was facing that person...so..."

Bai Yutang glanced at Zhan Zhao, and saw Zhan Zhao nodding to him.

Zhan Zhao glanced at Liu Jie, who was full of tears, "Your back? But in my opinion, some of your injuries were caused by the frontal attackers. If you keep your back on you, in terms of angle and strength, it's not right. It may be caused. Miss Liu, what are you covering up?"

A look of panic appeared on Liu Jie's face, he hesitated and didn't know where to start to explain.

Bai Yutang raised his eyebrows, "Oh, it seems a bit contradictory. Otherwise... let's talk about Cai Peilin again? According to our on-site investigation, she went out to meet someone for some reason after returning to her room. As for this Who... probably has something to do with that Qian Wenxin again."

"However, since a lot of things have happened to this Qian Wenxin, how could she go so recklessly by herself? I think there should be someone she trusts to go with her. Ms. Liu , do you know who this person she trusts is?"

Bai Yutang smiled a bit, but Liu Jie looked panic-stricken.

"The suitcase containing Cai Peilin's body was checked by the local police, but there were no valuable clues. However, I found something in the suitcase that did not belong to the deceased... the things beside the deceased It doesn't belong to the deceased, what do you think, Ms. Liu?"

Liu Jie glanced at Bai Yutang, she suddenly felt that this man had dug a hole for her from the beginning, and silently watched her step by step towards death.

Liu Jie didn't know how to answer her, any answer would be wrong.Of course, it is wrong not to answer.

Sure enough, Bai Yutang snorted coldly, "I don't know how to answer? What I found in the suitcase was a string of sandalwood? Bracelets."

Liu Jie's whole body trembled, her face turned pale, her eyes rolled rapidly, her lips trembled unconsciously, but unfortunately she couldn't utter a single word.

"That string of sandalwood bracelets is a keepsake for the four of you, you, Cai Peilin, Cheng Yaxuan and Qian Wenxin. Everyone engraved their initials on their respective bracelets. What a coincidence, the one we found in the suitcase The inscription is not Cai Peilin CPL, but... LJ. What do you mean by that?"

"Miss Liu, is it convenient to take out your bracelet?" Zhan Zhao stretched out his hand.

Liu Jie lowered her head and was silent for a long time before saying hoarsely, "Yes, those bracelets are mine.

"But...but it wasn't me who killed the murderer! I wasn't the murderer! It wasn't me!" Liu Jie suddenly became agitated, and punched the bed vigorously with both fists.

Bai Yutang sneered, "Oh. I didn't say it was you."

"What... what?" Liu Jie glanced at Bai Yutang in surprise, and was instantly stunned.

Bai Yutang flicked the dust off his cuffs, "My assistant, oh, this one," he patted Zhan Zhao's shoulder, "According to his autopsy results, Cai Peilin's cause of death was strangled to death by hand. But you The injury on the hand is too serious, it is impossible to have the strength to strangle her to death."

Liu Jie shrank her shoulders in frustration, then slowly curled up her legs and buried her head on her knees.

"That is to say, you were present when Cai Peilin was strangled to death, but you were not the murderer. Then, please tell us, who is the murderer?" Bai Yutang said in a direct tone, refusing to allow anyone to refuse.

Liu Jie slowly raised her head and looked at the two men, tightly clutching the bed sheet under her body with both hands, biting her lip and frowning, without saying a word.

Zhan Zhao chuckled, "Usually, if a woman defends a person like this, then this person is either her child or her lover. Sorry, you should have no birth history, right?"

Liu Jie looked at Zhan Zhao in disbelief, "You...why..."

"In this case, then the person you must protect is probably your lover." Bai Yutang approached her, "Let me be crazy, since that person will let you do this for him, it proves that he has no love at all. You. Why should you?"

"No! No!" Liu Jie yelled, "He just... just can't say it..."

"Joke. Are you lying to us or yourself?" Bai Yutang sneered, "Tell us who he is and where he is."

Liu Jie is still very hesitant, maybe at this time her heart is also extremely entangled.

"Miss Liu, it's impossible for you to love him and he doesn't love you. It's impossible to complement each other. The ones who died now are your best sisters. Is this kind of ruthless love better than the former sisters?" Zhan Zhao He persuaded Liu Jie earnestly.

Liu Jie rubbed her face hard with her hands, and said with a sob, "His name is Yang Ju, he is the one who bought this island and developed it into a tourist attraction...he is in the control room on the basement floor of the haunted house ..."

"He and you?" Bai Yutang asked eagerly.

Liu Jie took a deep breath, forcing back the tears that were already rolling in her eyes, "He... also grew up with the four of us, only two years older than me. But... After Xinxin had an accident, he left Arashi Island is dead, and I haven’t heard from him since then. I didn’t know he was back until this year...I went to see him..."

"If my reasoning is correct, he was the one who attacked you in the haunted house that day, right?" Bai Yutang asked.

Liu Jie nodded, "Indeed. At first I went to the appointment because of what Yaxuan said to me, wondering if Xinxin was not alive...but it turned out to be him."

No one interrupted her narration, "In fact, I know better than anyone else that he hates me, hates us! The moment I lay on the ground, I really thought he would kill me, but he didn't... He asked me to help him, Help him kill Pei Lin... I..." Liu Jie couldn't help crying when she said this.

"Ahem..." Liu Jie choked her throat and coughed a few times, "You are right, with my hands in the current condition, it is impossible to kill someone. After Pei Lin went back that day, I called her to ask her out. Of course she doesn't have any doubts...hehe...how could she doubt me? We are...good? Sister? Sister? Ah..."

Bai Yutang and Zhan Zhao remained silent, perhaps this was the real tragedy.

"After Pei Lin arrived, she was shocked when she saw Yang Ju. She thought it was just a reunion party arranged by me. How could she have thought that it was a western banquet given to her by her good friends... I was careless too. , I didn’t even know she had torn off the bracelet. Heh.”

"Are you going to find Yang Ju? Take me...I too...cough..." Liu Jie got out of bed and put on her shoes as she spoke.

Zhan Zhao glanced at Bai Yutang, who nodded to him.

-

The playground is still full of people.Passing through the crowd, the three of them finally walked into the basement of the haunted house for various reasons.In other words, the yin qi underground is heavier than that on the ground.At any rate, the ground is somewhat popular, but the underground is really like hell.

The door was splashed with red paint, and there was a sign with the word "Control Room" crookedly hung on it. Bai Yutang kicked the door open directly. A man was sitting on the sofa directly opposite the door, holding a glass of glass in his hand. Tea, savoring it contentedly.

"Oh? Here?" Yang Ju was not surprised at the arrival of the three of them, as if it was expected.

"You are the big boss behind the scenes... Tsk." Bai Yutang clicked his tongue in disgust.

Yang Ju ignored Bai Yutang, took a sip of tea and said to Liu Jie, "Xiao Jie, close the door."

Liu Jie glanced at him, then turned around and closed the door.

"Mr. Detective and Mr. Assistant, do you want to sit down and have a cup of tea?" Yang Ju was not nervous at all.

Bai Yutang was also rude, sat down on the sofa, and tore Zhan Zhao off.

"Prologue—the beginning."

The author has something to say: ah, la la, I went to the library this morning to borrow "Seven Heroes and Five Righteousnesses". Ouch, just reading the title makes me feel cruel!

Then tomorrow Tanabata ~ Tanabata episodes will be posted!What do you want to see?Don't reply carelessly!

☆, extra one

The author has something to say: Here comes a special episode on Qixi Festival!Please don't accept it carelessly! [Note: This episode is a separate article and has nothing to do with the progress of the main text~]

So everyone, please have a great Qixi Festival~ It's the first Qixi Festival with everyone! hhhh I want to eat Korean BBQ with my parents!

As for some [details] in it, it's just Ben Wang's blurred consciousness caused by being too tired after being tortured by a certain Zhou Geng.

Alas, I am so tired of the sudden appearance of a number of words starting with 4... It's so awkward, I really want to delete some.

Zhan Zhao opened his sour eyes with difficulty following the sound of "pa——" from the kitchen, and vaguely heard Bai Yutang scolding Erbai while he was half asleep. Zhan Zhao smashed his mouth, rubbed his head against the quilt and fell asleep in a daze.

The second time he woke up was woken up by Bai Yutang.

"Hey, hey, it's almost ten o'clock. Erbai got up early in the morning to help, you really are a dog..." When Bai Yutang said this, Zhan Zhao threw a pillow in his face, and then Zhan Zhao Continue to hug the quilt with hands and feet and continue to sleep back to the cage.

"Cat~ Today is a special day! Get up!" Bai Yutang pulled out the quilt from Zhan Zhao's arms, and before Zhan Zhao could scratch his hair, he overwhelmed him, knelt on Zhan Zhao's body, and bowed his head. , "Today is Qixi Festival~"

Zhan Zhao turned his face sideways, and said in a very dissatisfied tone, "It's none of my business for Qixi Festival! In the past, Qixi Festival is also a normal day! There is something special!" He turned around, met Bai Yutang's eyes, stretched out his hand and pulled Bai Yutang. Don's face, "Go away! I want to sleep!"

Grabbing Zhan Zhao's troublesome hand, Bai Yutang said, "What's special? Of course it's special! This is the first Qixi Festival since we're together, okay?!"

Zhan Zhao was at a loss for words at once, it was indeed the same reasoning, but why must we celebrate Qixi Festival when we are together... Tsk.

Bai Yutang smacked Zhan Zhao's forehead, and stood up, "Okay, get up and change quickly. I've made breakfast, and I'm going to go out for a walk today."

"Pa——" there was another sound, the two looked out together, and Bai Yutang yelled "Erbai!" knowingly, and went from the kitchen.

Zhan Zhao stretched out on the bed and looked at the ceiling, celebrating Chinese Valentine's Day...

-

Zhan Zhao went to the kitchen to rescue Erbai with a toothbrush full of foam in his mouth. This was the second time Erbai had knocked over a plate this morning. Sure enough, large pets also have joys and sorrows.After rescuing Erbai from Bai Yutang's clutches, Zhan Zhao found Candy still in the den, so he could only feel that even the pet cat was inferior to him.

After rinsing his mouth and coming out of the bathroom, Zhan Zhao saw that Bai Yutang had almost finished his breakfast, and was about to sit on a chair when the doorbell rang downstairs.Bounced and ran downstairs to open the door, the person who came was lawyer Zhang from the opposite law firm.

"Morning, Lawyer Zhang. Are you... wanting to entrust?" Zhan Zhao actually had very little contact with this person.

"Ah, no...Actually, that..." Lawyer Zhang scratched his head uncomfortably, "That...Mr. Zhan, are you free tonight?"

"Ah? I..." Zhan Zhao was a little confused.

"No time." Bai Yutang appeared out of nowhere, "He's not free at night, and he won't be free in the future. I'll take care of all his time from now on. Understand?"

Bai Yutang wrapped his arms around Zhan Zhao's neck and leaned against himself, ignoring Zhan Zhao's resistance, and then turned to Lawyer Zhang with a rogue-like face, "This man is my exclusive property for Bai Yutang." With a vicious look, "People who play against me, Bai Yutang, never even know how they died."

"Cough...well, I still have something to do...Happy Qixi Festival!" Innocent and intimidated lawyer Zhang had a bad start, and ended up running away.

Zhan Zhao kicked Bai Yutang, took a step forward and grabbed Bai Yutang's collar tightly, "What do you mean 'I'm covered'? Oh, is it girly romance? Bai Yutang is really good at threatening people, why? , the underworld noble?!"

Bai Yutang raised his mouth and let out a chuckle, raised his hand to pinch Zhan Zhao's chin, and pressed his forehead against the other's forehead, "How do you know it's not... Cat, come home with me sometime."

"What... what?!" Zhan Zhao let go, pushed Bai Yutang away with his backhand, and stared at him with wide eyes, "What do you mean?"

Bai Yutang smiled without saying a word, with an unfathomable expression on his face.

"Why do I feel... as if I'm on a pirate ship. Cough, I, I, I, I'm going to have breakfast!" Zhan Zhao ran upstairs with a mess of thoughts in his head, and Bai Yutang followed him, slowly going up. building.

-

"Mint salad, toast, Ceylon black tea," Bai Yutang sat down across from Zhan Zhao, "there's also salmon for cats."

Zhan Zhao rolled his eyes at him, picked up a piece of salmon with a fork and chewed it in his mouth, "Feed Candy? Candy—! Come and eat the meat!"

Bai Yutang lowered his head and poured the black tea, the corners of his mouth slightly raised.

Candy spread her short legs and took advantage of the smell of fish and came over, Erbai naturally followed with her tail wagging.After Bai Yutang arranged meals for the two, he sat down on a chair and started eating.

"Where are you going?" Zhan Zhao lowered his head and took a sip with toast in one hand and black tea in the other.

Bai Yutang blinked and stroked the rim of the teacup with his thumb, but smiled and said nothing.

Seeing that he was like this, Zhan Zhao didn't bother to ask any more questions, so he said, "Bring Erbai and Candy."

"Of course," Bai Yutang held his chin, "it's like going to play with the whole family."

Zhan Zhao gnawed on the toast silently, but blushed a little.

-

Zhan Zhao led Erbai into the back seat of the car, held Candy in his arms and sat in the passenger seat. After Bai Yutang started the car, the family wandered around H City.

"What, a day trip to City H?" Zhan Zhao ran his hands along Candy's hair, looking at the tall buildings passing by outside the window, "I've stayed here for so many years."

Bai Yutang turned the steering wheel and replied, "Some things are different when you see them by yourself and when you see them with others. Here we are."

"What?" Zhan Zhao looked over, and it turned out to be a supermarket.

The two got out of the car, temporarily put the two Mr. Pets in the car, and walked into the supermarket side by side.

"Why do you want to come to the supermarket? Are you missing something at home?" Zhan Zhao looked at the dazzling array of products in the supermarket and asked.

Bai Yutang touched the back of Zhan Zhao's neck, and said in a gentle tone, "This is the place where you and I first came after I woke up three years ago."

Zhan Zhao was slightly stunned, and after thinking for a while, he actually laughed out loud, "Yes, yes, yes, hahaha, it seems that I came here specially to help you buy underwear!"

Bai Yutang looked at Zhan Zhao's beautiful eyebrows with a slight smile, "Well, is that our first date?"

Zhan Zhao unceremoniously patted Bai Yutang on the back and complained, "Who buys underwear for the first date!"

-

Throughout the day, the family wandered around the city, eating roadside snacks, running on the lawn with their pets, and then sitting on street chairs with canned coffee and watching the playful pets and the passing crowd.

-

"Have dinner here?" Zhan Zhao looked up at the signboard, "It's new? I haven't heard of it."

Bai Yutang took Erbai by his arm, "Yes. I went up to the second floor."

The decoration of the restaurant is in the Chinese style, and there are few modern things here.In the separate box on the second floor, the afterglow of the setting sun leaked in through the simple and simple wooden windows with patterned hollows, fell on the wooden floor, and reflected on the faces of the two of them.

Bai Yutang looked at Zhan Zhao's face softened by the afterglow of the setting sun, and the eyebrows and eyes that he liked so much, he smiled unconsciously.Zhan Zhao was uncomfortable being watched by him, and asked with a smile, "Why do you keep looking at me?"

"It's pretty." Bai Yutang's brows and eyes were curved, and there was an irresistible tenderness in his eyes.

Zhan Zhao propped his face with one hand and looked elsewhere. Bai Yutang watched with satisfaction the blush gradually creeping up his ears. After thinking about it, he took out a cobalt blue bottom and silver flower border small box.Put it on the table and push it in front of Zhan Zhao.

"Cat, open it."

Zhan Zhao glanced at it, feeling a little nervous.

"What... what..."

"You'll know when you open it."

Zhan Zhao pursed his mouth, stretched out his hand to open it, and there was a ring quietly lying in the box.Different from ordinary rings, this ring is quite old in style and has complicated patterns. There is a sapphire inlaid in the middle, and it can be seen that it is worthless at first glance.

"This one……"

Bai Yutang picked up the ring, "This is a family heirloom of the Bai family, specially for the daughter-in-law of the Bai family. Grandma left it to the old man, but unfortunately the old man never married, so he left it to me. Now, it is yours. "

"Ahem, what? Me?" Zhan Zhao was so startled that he almost spit out his tea.

"I'm the youngest in the family, and the elder brother above has no intention of marrying a wife, so this thing has flowed to me. I'll give it to you, what about you?" Bai Yutang asked Zhan Zhao while playing with the ring.

Zhan Zhao touched his nose and didn't know how to answer for a while.

"Cat... don't you want to?" Bai Yutang's face was hurt, so pitiful.

Zhan Zhao couldn't bear to see him like this, he hesitated and said, "Then...it's not that I don't want to, but...this is for your daughter-in-law...I..."

"Cat...QAQ"

"That that... take it here. I accept it." Zhan Zhao took the ring with a bitter face.Looking at Bai Yutang again, he had a tricky smile on his face.

"Find a time to meet your aunt first, and then let's go to my house together?" Bai Yutang asked.

"Hmm... hey!" Zhan Zhao responded, but accidentally dropped the ring on the ground.

Erbai looked at the pretty looking thing on the ground but didn't know what it was, leaned over to smell it, and then... ouch~

"Ahh! Erbai, why did you eat it! Spit it out!" Zhan Zhao yelled while hugging Erbai's neck.

Bai Yutang was out of breath, why did he raise this stupid dog.

"Hurry up, find a veterinarian!" Zhan Zhao hurriedly got up and urged Bai Yutang.

Seeing Zhan Zhao's anxious face, Bai Yutang also stood up, took Candy with one hand, "Let's go."

So in this festival full of romantic atmosphere in the streets, the family preluded with a visit to the veterinarian.As for the backstage...you can't describe it below the neck. If you know how to make complaints, please find Jinjiang, thank you for your cooperation!

The Tanabata story of this family is probably like this, let's take a look at this family...

Gongsun naturally has the self-consciousness of being a father. Of course, what he cares about is not the key points such as "today is Qixi Festival", but "Mingming has worked hard in his studies and as a father, he should prepare a nutritious breakfast for him".

But did you know that Gongsun is a Level [-] disability?It was like Gongsun Ming was suddenly awakened by the strong and long-lasting burnt smell.

Rubbing his fluffy and messy hair, he walked to the kitchen with bare feet, and as expected, he saw Gongsun's depressed face and the messy kitchen like a typhoon passing through, such as poached eggs that were almost burnt in the pan, and bacon cut in strange shapes grains, water trickling on the floor.

"Are you up? Well... breakfast is almost ready." Gongsun smiled awkwardly.

Gongsun Ming sighed helplessly, and turned off the gas stove, "Go and watch TV. I'll do it later."

Even though Gongsun was a little unconvinced, he decided to watch TV after seeing the vicissitudes of the kitchen.He wanted to untie the apron with his backhand, but he couldn't do it no matter what he did. Suddenly, he felt a warmth on the back of his hand. It was Gongsun Ming who held his hand to help him untie the knot.

"They said don't tie it into a knot, and you can't untie it yourself." Then he untied the knot, put it on the table, and went to the bathroom to wash up.

Gongsun generously waited for his son's breakfast, and Gongsun Ming was also methodical. It didn't take much time from cleaning the kitchen to restarting work.

A simple breakfast is often the warmest. While drinking milk, Gongsun sighed that my son is so good.

"Are you going out today?" Gongsun Ming asked.

Gongsun shook his head, "No, we can watch parent-child educational films together at home today."

Gongsun Ming glanced at him and decided not to accept him.Parent-child educational films and the like...should be quite selective.

Snacks and beer educational film, the sun goes all the way from east to west, and time passes quietly.Gongsun felt drowsy watching the movie, and dozed off on the sofa with potato chips in his hand.

Gongsun Ming picked up the remote control to turn down the volume, took away the potato chips, picked him up lightly, walked into the bedroom, and put Gongsun on the bed.

Gongsun Ming squatted beside the bed, looking at Gongsun, he gently traced Gongsun's facial features with his slender fingers, and couldn't help chuckling as if thinking of something.

He has lived with Gongsun for more than ten years. Gongsun watched him grow up, and he also watched Gongsun change from a boy to a man.

In those best times, we were with each other, never missed anything, never left regrets.

Some things really can't be said, but I can still feel it in my heart.

The afterglow of the warm orange sunset leaked in more than half, illuminating the entire bedroom warmly.Gongsun Ming leaned over, and quietly kissed Gongsun's bangs on his forehead.

"Happy Qixi Festival, Gongsun Ce."

Gongsun Ming got up and walked out of the bedroom.The moment the door was closed, Gongsun lying on the bed slowly opened his eyes, looked at the door thoughtfully, then turned over, buried his head in the quilt, and continued to sleep.

……

Sooner or later, fate will bring us to meet certain people, one after another, who can show us what we can make ourselves, and what we should not let ourselves be.

These people come never too early, never too late, and the timing is always just right.

For those who are reading this episode, no matter what state of mind you are in to live today, normal heart or small expectations, I will not wish you a happy Qixi Festival. There are many such blessings on the homepage.I wish you happiness today, happiness tomorrow and happiness forever.

that's all.
