While Cheng Li was looking for a pen, Jian Xie picked up the employee ID card that fell outside just now.

On the back is the pattern of the Administration Bureau, but looking at the front, there is no photo of him, nor the department he belongs to, only a solitary number.

7.

Cheng Li handed him the pen, and his eyes fell on the employee ID card.

When he saw the number, he showed a surprised expression again: "There is only one number?"

And it's still not very suitable for 7...

"..."

Seeing Jian Xie frowning and looking at him, Cheng Li paused and explained: "Normally, it should be five digits."

For example, on his ID card, it says 6-3-002, which means that the No. 2 autumn recruits are recruited by the three departments at the same time, and the ranking is No. [-].

But Jian Xie, there is only one 7?

Does this mean that he is the well-deserved No. [-] investigator who doesn't need any modifiers?

Considering his level, maybe it's not a coincidence...

He looks complicated.

After getting the answer, Jian Xie withdrew her gaze, put the employee card in her close pocket, took the pen and wrote her name on the contract, and handed it back to Cheng Li.

The handwriting is clear and elegant, and the writing is strong.

Pleasant to the eye.

After the inspection, Cheng Li reopened the cut cowhide pocket, put the contract in as it was, sealed it carefully, and put it back in its original place.

After all, it has to be handed over to the department for archiving.

When he was done, he let out a sigh of relief.

"I thought you wouldn't sign it right away," Cheng Li said relaxedly, a little nervous, "That's good, I don't have to make a few more trips."

He thought about it again: "It's still early, I invite you out for dinner, what do you want to eat?"

Although Cheng Li still has many problems in his heart, since the most difficult contract has been resolved so quickly, he is in a good mood now and feels that he can relax first.

But Jian Xie didn't accept this, and raised her eyes: "Let's settle the matter once."

Cheng Li choked: "..."

This crisp and neat appearance has quite a personal style.

"If you have anything you want to ask me, just tell me." Jian Xie suddenly turned her face, staring at the person in the driver's seat with an almost scrutinizing gaze, and spoke clearly, "Because I have some questions to ask you later. I got the answer here, so I won't hide anything from you."

The implication is, I hope you do too.

Cheng Li: "..."

He cleared his throat first, and then said nervously: "I want to ask... was that sentence you told me a long time ago a joke, or was it true?"

Jian Xie was taken aback for a moment: "What?"

He didn't know when Cheng Li was referring to.

"It's the second time we met, the case where the B-level monster disappeared, what happened the night I sent you back from the apartment building." Cheng Li tried to describe the time as concretely as possible, his Adam's apple rolled, and said with difficulty, "You asked me in the car, will monsters protect humans..."

This question has troubled him for a long time.

Although, at that time, he saw confusion from Jian Xie's eyes, which didn't seem to be fake, but he still thought that the other party was thinking too much, so he just laughed it off.

After all, he has been an investigator for several years, but he has never seen a monster close to humans.

If there is, it's just a curiosity for a while. In the final analysis, the upper and lower levels on the same food chain will not have any friendly emotions.

But Jian Xie's inadvertent words still planted a seed in his heart.

Until now, all kinds of things that happened around Jian Xie have made him unable to ignore this assumption. Cheng Li did not forget the powerful and possessive indescribable power that Yu Jinghe felt from Jian Xie when they met for the first time. breath.

Jane Xie didn't speak.

This is not the same as before.

At that time, he didn't know about Qin Zhuo's existence, but now that he knows, it's not up to him to decide whether to show up or not.

[Qin Zhuo...]

【I do not mind. 】

As if knowing what he was thinking, Qin Zhuo gave the answer one step ahead of him.

After all, he raised his eyes and lazily looked forward.

Seeing Jian Xie's slightly startled expression, Cheng Li couldn't help showing confusion, and followed his line of sight to the rearview mirror of the car.

And the moment he saw the scene in the mirror, Cheng Li involuntarily froze in place, like falling into ice.

A pair of dark red eyes stared straight at him.

when?

...Someone actually appeared in the car, but he didn't notice it? !

Although his body unconsciously fell into a state of rigidity, Cheng Li's mind was spinning crazily. The danger radar told him that this young man who appeared suddenly was definitely not a kind person.

But Jian Xie beside him didn't respond, as if he was not surprised that there was a sudden extra person in the car.

Cheng Li: "..."

All his attention was caught by the bloody eyes, and he didn't realize who this guy was until he came back to his senses.

That was... a young man who had met once.

But it didn't feel the same as the last time we met.

In any case, Cheng Li couldn't call him a human being now.

The young man was sitting in the back seat of the car with his chin resting on his back, a faint black mist lingered all over his body. Although he still had a careless and arrogant look, and his figure could not be seen in his eyes, his fully opened aura gave people a kind of humiliation. A thrilling feeling that in a moment will drag the person it looks directly into hell.

"Meet you again, investigator." Qin Zhuo looked away with little interest, "Now, you know who I am."

His casual voice broke the dead silence in the car.

Although he has met Jian Xie many times, he is still too lazy to remember his name, and his words are mostly contemptuous.

Cheng Li: "..."

It doesn't matter if you say that he is Ye Gong's good dragon, or he is not good at psychological quality.

Although he had a vague intuition in his heart in advance, and did a lot of psychological construction for himself, and listed a variety of feasible coping plans, when he really saw the other party appear, his first reaction was to want to Immediately jump out of the car and flee.

Even if such a terrifying existence has an unforgettable and outstanding appearance, this does not make him appear harmless, but makes him more frightening.

"I won't kill you." Qin Zhuo said lazily, raised his hand, and greeted Quan in a friendly way, "No matter what, I won't do such a thing in front of him."

"..." Cheng Li.

Did not feel comforted.

And following his movements, the ring fell into Cheng Li's eyes, causing Cheng Li to struggle out of his wild thoughts, and was involuntarily stunned.

Seeing the indifferent Jian Xie from the corner of the eye, Cheng Li could only reluctantly say: "Okay, okay."

Although Qin Yu's attitude towards him is still not very polite, but as a horror, it is not easy to communicate with him as a human being calmly.

I always feel like I'm getting light...

Thinking of the ring he saw just now, Cheng Li's eyes subconsciously fell on the hand of Jian Xie, the co-pilot.

same as him.

On his ring finger was a simple yet generous ring, and the faint light that flowed was extraordinarily luxurious.

Although it suits Jian Xie very well, it doesn't look like the decoration he would choose, more like the taste of a more particular guy.

Jian Xie followed his gaze, landed on her hand, and looked at Qin Yu again: "..."

Cheng Li was speechless: "..."

Everything seems to be explained.

Jane Xie: "..."

Jian Xie: "I told you, I'm not in a relationship."

Qin Zhuo didn't show he cared, but said lazily: 【Whatever you say, be what you say. 】

In the words, it seems that she doesn't care about Jian Xie's words that are similar to rejection.

But on the contrary, it was such an indisputable performance that made Jian Xie's heart beat non-stop.

It seems that in his eyes, he is a lover who loses his temper, and he can do whatever he wants.

This feels... a little weird.

Although Jian Xie has an outstanding appearance and excellent grades, he can easily become the focus of everyone's eyes, and he seems to be able to handle other people's feelings with ease, but in fact, he has never been in a relationship, nor has he had any similar "" like" emotion.

He attaches great importance to his privacy, so he often has some reservations unconsciously, and he doesn't have deep friendship with others, so he cuts off many possibilities invisibly.

But Qin Zhuo is different...

In front of Him, Jian Xie's previous methods of keeping a distance were all ineffective.

He got involved in his life almost forcefully, and the entanglement with each other gradually deepened over time.

In his former self, he should have resented it, but he didn't.

Although he could always feel that Qin Zhuo was pampering him intentionally, he seemed to be accommodating him intentionally or unintentionally...

Hearing his denial, Cheng Li's expression became a little subtle. He went through all the recent experiences in his mind like watching a movie, and said hesitantly: "You both wear the same ring, and your recent clothes are completely different. It's your usual style... As for moving, don't you guys live together now? Are you living together?"

He didn't know that Qin Zhuo's body was in Jian Xie's body, so he subconsciously used the word cohabitation.

In reality, the situation is more complicated.

Because strictly speaking, they never separated.

"..."

"You don't need to hide it from me, okay?" Cheng Lichang sighed and rubbed his temples, "Actually, I'm not as unenlightened as you think."

Humans are sometimes scarier than monsters.

Moreover, his intuition told him that if he really wanted to harm him, he didn't need to do this at all.

He glanced at the young man in the back seat.

After finishing the previous few words, he withdrew his gaze and looked out of the window sideways, showing no interest in their next topic.

But it is undeniable that although I still feel uneasy in my heart, I always feel that I will be torn apart in the next second, but his attitude of being a bystander has indeed relaxed Cheng Li a lot, and he is not as goosebumps all over his body as he was at the beginning Pimple, my brain went blank.

……

After a while, Jian Xie rubbed her fingers unconsciously, and hesitated in a low voice: "Maybe... yes."

Hearing this, Qin Zhuo turned his head to look at him, which was extremely rare, with a trace of bewilderment in his eyes.

The evil god, who has always held everything in his hands and is omniscient, seems to have never thought about the possibility of hearing a response from him.

Cheng Li was also taken aback: "...What did you say?"

"It's nothing, you heard it wrong."

"..."

"Any more questions?" After a brief distraction, Jian Xie's eyes returned to clarity, "Let's ask together."

After the person being questioned came up with this endless sentence, he directly skipped the topic, as if this sentence was just a casual remark.

Not wanting to appear too gossip, Cheng Li can only let it go temporarily.

"Do you have the wood carving from the auction now?" He got back to the topic, "What do you want it for? It's dangerous."

Jian Xie: "Don't worry, it has been destroyed by me."

"Okay." Cheng Li had been mentally prepared for a long time, and he received an affirmative answer directly. For a while, he didn't know what to say, "Then I don't have any problems,"

He didn't forget that Jian Xie said that he wanted to get answers from him, and he was also very curious about his questions.

Even to him, Jian Xie is a very mysterious young man. As a recommender, he doesn't know much more about him than those investigators in the forum.

"You've looked into my file, about my parents' car accident, hospital and police dispatch."

"How do you..."

Before he finished speaking, Cheng Li quickly realized the reason, and was secretly surprised by the other party's sensitivity.

After all, at the gate of the auction yesterday, his former colleague greeted him. It was probably at that time that Jian Xie realized that they had contacted before, and then realized it.

"I just want to ask you one thing." Jian Xie's voice did not fluctuate, and she looked at him with fixed eyes. "Did I really report to the police more than [-] times on the day my parents' car accident happened?"
