A gentleman is not a group

"What's the matter with your sister?" Zhou Chi couldn't help complaining to Xie Jianmian as soon as he walked out of the gate of Nuanyu Pavilion, "I clearly remember that I didn't offend her, not even a word that might go too far, she Just look at me coldly.

After all, I haven't seen her have a special expression very often, but it's probably inappropriate for her to be aimed at me every time, isn't it? "

To be honest, Xie Jianmian doesn't quite understand Si Lan's attitude towards Zhou. Although my sister is cold on weekdays, she always treats people kindly and doesn't talk to people like this for no reason. Maybe Zhou Tutou is really not recruiting Waiting to see this one?

Of course you can't say this, Xie Jianmian can only perfunctorily comfort him: "Sister A is very kind to people, you see she took in Miss Aqiu without saying a word, how could she target you."

Listen, it really is my family.

Zhou Chi was not surprised to hear such an answer, but his heart was still a little uncomfortable. The unripe green grape juice flowed all over the floor, and a heart was soaked in it. After sucking the juice, he took it out again, sour and swollen.

But where does this soreness come from?He doesn't know, let alone pursue it.

At present, there are no clues about the four disappearance cases. The fate of the missing girls is unknown. The only clues that can be thought of seem to deviate from the right direction. These missing girls are probably not the work of prostitutes.

In other words, there are indeed various situations that often happen there, but this case has nothing to do with those.

The only similarity between these four missing women is that they all came from Fengyue.But why is it Fengyuechang?

Where is the whore?Everyone looked at each other and smiled tacitly. How many men spend a lot of money in the spring night. It hides the soul of desire and crushes the purest dream. Yuji, dragging his desperate body in, and then leaving with even more despair, like floating, even if he disappears someday, there will be no trace left behind...

Won't leave a trace?

Zhou Chi stopped suddenly, he felt as if he had grasped some key part, yes, why are they all romantic women.

Because there is no sound, no background, no family, maybe even no friends, no one to care about and it is absolutely simple.

"What's wrong?" Xie Jianmian noticed Zhou Chi's pause and turned around to ask.

"Have you ever wondered why these four missing women are all romantic?"

"According to the previous thinking, it should have been guessed that it was the dirty business of the prostitute, but now it seems to be not the case, but the four women are indeed born in Fengyue."

Xie Jianmian followed Zhou Chi's train of thought, and slowly stroked, "You said earlier that even if some girls die inside, no one will hold them accountable, so that's what the murderer wants, right?"

Zhou Chi nodded, and looked at him approvingly: "I think so too."

"But we still found out." Xie Jianmian sighed, and continued, "It means that this incident deviated from the murderer's expectation, and there was something wrong, and the problem was with the old man's daughter.

Without that coincidence, perhaps more women would have disappeared without a trace, and we would never know, because no one would report their lives and deaths to the authorities. "

"You're right." Zhou Chi stroked the white cloth wrapped around his hand, and saw that blood had gradually seeped out of it, like a branch of red plum blooming on the snow, and it seemed that he was looking at it from an admiring attitude. not bad.

Xie Jianmian followed his gaze and lowered his head, frowned when he saw the dazzling red, and then he was even more dissatisfied with his indifferent attitude towards last week: "Your wound is still bleeding."

"Yes." Zhou Chi replied sincerely, "I saw it."

His brows frowned even tighter, Xie Jianmian thought it was a bit funny, the injured person didn't care, there was no point in his being anxious, but in the end he couldn't calm down and let it go: "Let's go to a pharmacy and buy some medicine to stop the bleeding."

Zhou Chi waved his other hand: "No, it's not that weak, it will be fine after a while."

"At least go back to the government office and re-bandage it."

After all, without waiting for Zhou Chi's answer, Xie Jianmian forcibly grabbed the arm that had just fallen from mid-air, and dragged Zhou Butou back to the government office.

The wound was not deep, although it was still oozing blood slightly, but it was not serious, and it didn't take much effort to bandage it, Zhou Chi felt that Xie Jianmian was making too much of a fuss.

But looking at his worried expression, it was really ironic. After all, it had been a long time since anyone had held his hand like this and properly treated the wound for him, even if it was just a small scratch not worth mentioning.

He suddenly smiled, and the light through the window cast a shadow on the side of his face, which was warm and heavy.

Xie Jianmian completed the last step, appreciating his work with satisfaction, and was about to ask Zhou Butou for a verbal favor, when he looked up at Zhou Chi's face, the face cut by the sun was sharp, and there was a smile on the corner of his lips , It was too good-looking, he subconsciously swallowed, and forgot what he wanted to say just now.

Zhou Chi noticed Xie Jianmian's movements, and stretched out his hand to pull up the man who was squatting for the convenience of bandaging. Xu Shi's soul was wandering outside and was suddenly pulled up. Xie Jianmian staggered for a while, and Zhou Chi quickly embraced his Waist, the warmth under the palm penetrated through the material for a moment, and Zhou Chi's heart began to beat wildly.

He quickly stabilized his mind, let go of his hand pretending to be natural, with a concerned expression on his face: "Are you okay?"

"It's okay." Xie Jianmian shook his head, and repeatedly chopped his feet a few times, until the needle-like feeling faded away, "It's just that the legs are a little numb."

Zhou Chi pulled out the wooden chair beside him and pointed, "Sit down for a while, there should be nothing else to do for now."

What else could they do, Zhou Chi didn't know.Could it really be that we can only hope for the portrait at the bulletin board, looking for a needle in a haystack and waiting for witnesses to show up with clues?

If no one came, would they give up on the four women? Is there really no other way?

Fengyue, Fengyue girl, Fengyue girl's disappearance, four cases of Fengyue girl's disappearance...

Zhou Chi thought about these words over and over again, trying to find some hidden connection.

His face was solemn, his fingers were still rubbing the newly replaced white cloth unconsciously, his mind wandered so badly that he couldn't control his strength well, a sharp tingling pain came from the wound, Zhou Zhi's chaotic thinking suddenly came to his senses, and that was all he said. flashed from the mind--

"This incident deviated from the murderer's expectations. Something went wrong. The problem lies with the old man's daughter..."

He suddenly raised his head and looked at Xie Jianmian, his eyes burst into a fierce light: "You said the problem lies with that woman who happened to get lost?"

Although Xie Jianmian was puzzled, seeing Zhou Chi's reaction, he probably thought of something. He didn't interrupt, but nodded solemnly.

"I suddenly had a ridiculous idea." Zhou Chi stood up and looked at the mottled branches and leaves outside the window. "There are not four missing cases, but five."

This may sound strange, because the disappearance cases they found at the beginning were indeed five cases, but after the old man came again, one of them disappeared naturally, but Zhou Chi said that he thought there were five cases in this case. rise.

Xie Jianmian understood Zhou Chi's meaning almost instantly. He felt that there was something wrong with the case that disappeared so unreasonably. In his guess, the old man's daughter might have been the same as the other four women. trace.

But what happened in the middle, maybe because the old man reported to the police, or maybe because he realized that she was not a romantic person, the murderer changed his mind temporarily in order not to startle the snake, and let her back.

He vaguely remembered the old man saying that it was a barefoot doctor who saved the woman in the end. If so, there must be something wrong with that barefoot doctor.

Thinking of this, the two looked at each other tacitly, and walked towards the old man together without saying a word.

Xu Shi's encounters in the past few days have been too unfavorable, exhausting all the bad luck accumulated, and finally there is a less anxious thing - the old man and the woman are at home.

The old man was sitting in the yard basking in the sun, and saw Zhou Chi and Xie Jianmian coming from a distance at a glance, and quickly got up to greet them warmly.

"Why are the two catchers here? Sit down quickly."

After thanking them, the two did not refuse, and sat on the wooden bench next to them.

Zhou Chi: "To be honest, we came here today to meet your daughter, and I want to ask her some questions."

"Okay, okay." The old man nodded readily, and shouted into the room, "Yinyue girl, come out quickly, there are guests coming!"

This is Zhou Chi's second time seeing Yinyue. In fact, it can't be said that, because the last time he relied on a portrait, it was not a meeting in the real sense. At this time, the real person was in front of him, much more vivid than the portrait. With the innocence unique to girls, Zhou Chi is a little subtle in his heart. It is such a young girl who pulls out a conspiracy hidden behind her.

Zhou Chi got up and nodded towards Yinyue: "Miss Yinyue."

Yinyue looked over timidly, with a hint of curiosity that couldn't be hidden in her clear eyes: "Are you the government's arresters, are you here to find me?"

"Yes, I took the liberty to come here because I wanted to ask you about getting lost in the Guanyin Temple that day."

"Huh?" Yinyue blinked, as if she didn't quite understand why the policeman in front of her wanted to ask her this question, "Is there any question?"

"It's like this. After your father reported to the police that day, we also discovered several other cases of disappearance." Zhou Chi explained, "But unfortunately, they haven't returned until now."

"You want to find clues from me? But I was not kidnapped?"

"Don't be nervous, of course you didn't meet the kidnapper." Xie Jianmian smiled at Yinyue, "We just want to know more about the situation."

Yinyue was relieved now, raised her head and asked cautiously: "Then what can I help you?"

Xie Jianmian replied: "Just tell me the specific situation that day."

Yinyue nodded and said, "I've heard that there is a Guanyin Temple in Lishan that is particularly effective. , As a result, I forgot how to get out. It was late at that time, and there was no one on the road. I was anxious and scared, and I sprained my foot accidentally. Fortunately, a doctor passed by and rescued me, and I was able to come back .”
