Eleven o'clock in the evening, Fountain Gardens.
The cold wind on the winter night was as sharp as a knife, and the collapsed buildings were in ruins, giving off an inexplicable strangeness.
In order not to be discovered, Aguang parked his car in the ground parking lot of the third phase, and a group of people walked to the site of the collapse accident.
Originally, Xu Youning was just following behind Mu Sijue, but he followed him closer and closer.
Mu Sijue always disliked others approaching him. He glanced at Xu Youning coldly, and Xu Youning immediately put on a pitiful smile: "Brother Qi, I'm a little scared."
"Ha—" Mu Sijue smiled disdainfully, "Is there anything in this world that you, Xu Youning, are afraid of?"
Xu Youning pointed to the ruins in front of him: "People have died! Have you ever heard that the soul of a person who died unexpectedly will stay in the place where he died for seven days... Today is the second day! I don't want to see ghosts..."
Mu Sijue didn't believe in ghosts and gods, so he naturally sneered at Xu Youning's remarks and didn't even bother to look at her.
When they arrived outside the cordon of the accident scene, Mu Sijue gave Aguang a look. Aguang understood and ran towards the two policemen in a panic, shouting from a distance: "Officer, officer!"
The policeman heard the sound and stood up: "What's wrong?"
"I, I live in that building over there!" Aguang pointed to a building in the third phase, "I just came home from get off work, parked the car downstairs and took a look, and the lights in my house were actually on. , I suspect a thief!"
"The security in this community has always been very good. I have never heard of a thief breaking in." The policeman said, "Did you forget to turn off the lights when you went out?"
"Impossible!" Aguang said categorically, "I went out in the morning, and I didn't turn on the lights before I went out! The security of this community was very good before, but wasn't there a collapse accident? Who can guarantee that there will be no such thing? Did the thief take the opportunity to sneak in?"
After a pause, Aguang continued: "I originally wanted to call the police, but I wasn't sure if it was an error. The security guard in the lobby told me that there were two police officers here, so I came over to find you. Can you help me? Me, come up with me and take a look?"
The two policemen hesitated for a moment and then agreed: "Okay, let's go and have a look with you. Anyway, there is nothing to protect at this site, so we will just treat it as an event."
"Thank you, officer!"
Aguang quickly led the police away, and Mu Sijue pulled Xu Youning across the cordon and into the accident scene.
Xu Youning put on his night vision goggles, clapped his hands, and looked like he was ready for a big fight: "Brother Seven, what are we going to do?"
Mu Sijue scanned the surroundings: "The reason why Lu was identified as the responsible party is that, in addition to the unfavorable confession made against Lu, the other reason is that there was nothing suspicious in the on-site investigation."
Xu Youning looked confused: "There is nothing suspicious at the scene, so why are we coming to the scene in the middle of the night?"
"The most suspicious thing is the absence of any suspicion." Behind the night vision goggles, Musijue's eyes were as sharp as blades. "The police must have overlooked some key clues. We need to find out."
"The reason why it was ignored by the police is that it may be the most common thing on the construction site." Xu Youning said, "So, the more common things are, the more suspicious they are! We have to work backwards to find them!"
In the darkness, the smile on Mu Sijue's lips was unclear whether it was appreciation or teasing: "You're not hopelessly stupid yet."
Xu Youning made a face at Mu Sijue and turned around to find something.
She had a sharp eye and searched very carefully, not sparing any corner.
As she said, she also wanted to help Su Jian'an, which was probably why Mu Sijue brought her to the scene.
If she finds the murderer, maybe she can help Su Jianan teach that guy how to behave!
However, Xu Youning never expected that he would see something like this—something that no one knew about yet except that person and a few people including her.
Not to mention a few buildings, it can destroy an entire community.
Xu Youning subconsciously looked back at Mu Sijue. He had been keeping a distance of no more than 6 meters from her, but he was not paying attention to her at the moment.
Some messy thoughts ran through his mind, but in the end, Xu Youning quickly picked up the things calmly and put them in his pocket.
The movement was too hasty, and her palm seemed to be cut by something, but she had no time to care, she just clenched her palm to stop the bleeding - this could provide a good excuse for her nervousness.
Next, Xu Youning was in a state of confusion.
She seemed to be standing at the junction of two worlds, being pulled by two forces.
Which side is she going to take
Why was it that the person who overturned her father's case was Musijue
Why was he the one who framed Lu
Why did fate play such a joke on her
"Did you find anything?"
Along with Musijue's voice came the sound of his footsteps getting closer and closer.
Xu Youning took two seconds to collect his emotions, stood up, and shook his head in disappointment: "I didn't find anything."
Mu Sijue did not doubt that he was there and raised his chin towards the distance: "I didn't find anything. Let's go over there and have a look."
He walked in front, Xu Youning looked at his tall and intimidating back, and suddenly felt glad that it was night.
If it were daytime, the panic and uneasiness in her heart might not escape this man's sharp eyes.
An hour later, Aguang sent a message saying that he could no longer hold on and the police were back.
Xu Youning and Mu Sijue have searched twice and found nothing.
Mu Sijue was obviously very dissatisfied with this result, and he frowned. His eyes behind the night vision goggles were as thick as ink, sharp and cold, and he kept people away from thousands of miles away.
Xu Youning couldn't tell what Mu Sijue was thinking for a moment, thinking that he was angry, so he walked over and said softly: "Brother Qi, let's go back first. We'll find a chance to take a look during the day. We might find something."
She admired herself for being able to say this without blushing or heart beating.
She obviously knew that, unless she took out the contents of her pockets. Otherwise, Mu Sijue would not discover anything, and Lu's crime... would eventually be confirmed.
Mu Sijue said "Yes" and walked back to the parking place with Xu Youning. Aguang had been waiting in front of the car door for a long time and respectfully opened the back seat door for him, but he said: "No, I will drive back by myself. "
Before Aguang could react, Mu Sijue had already sat in the driver's seat. Xu Youning was also a little confused for a moment, not knowing whether he should get in the car or not.
Mu Sijue lowered the window and looked at Xu Youning coldly: "Do you want to spend the night here?"
Xu Youning took a breath, sprinted to the front passenger seat door at a speed of 100 meters, opened the door and sat on it. The whole movement was smooth and smooth, as if he was really afraid that Mu Sijue would leave her here.
The car quickly started and when they returned to the villa, Xu Youning ran ahead to open the door. After entering, he first took out Mu Sijue's slippers, and then sat down to change his own. He said, "Except for the fact that there is no suspicion at the scene, it is very suspicious." , the fact that the confessions are consistent against Lu is also very suspicious, we can check the people who have been questioned by the police station."
“…”
“…”
After not hearing Mu Sijue's answer for a long time, Xu Youning raised his head in confusion and met his condescending gaze.
There was a thump in her heart, and she was obviously very uneasy, but her face was blank: "Brother Qi, what are you looking at me for?"
"How did you get injured?" Musijue asked, staring at the blood on her hands.
Xu Youning opened his hand, said "Oh" and said lightly: "I was scratched by the glass accidentally just now. It's nothing serious."
I was so flustered that I had no time to care about it, but now I looked carefully and saw that although the wound was no longer bleeding, there was a long scratch across the palm, the skin was torn, and the entire palm was stained with blood, which looked a bit scary.
Mu Sijue might have seen scenes that were a hundred times bloodier, so he took the medical kit and threw it to her with an expressionless face: "Take care of the wound. There are still many things to do next, so don't delay things."
Xu Youning opened the medical kit in an obedient manner, took out disinfectant bandages and medicines, and neatly treated the wounds.
When I was about to wrap the gauze, I suddenly heard Mu Sijue's voice with unknown meaning: "You are so skilled in the technique, how often do you get injured?"
Xu Youning was stunned without any trace, and then curled his lips, "When I was a child, there was almost no wound on my body 365 days a year. I was afraid that my grandma would hit me, so I secretly treated the wounds myself. So when it comes to treating wounds, I practice People who have lived for decades!”
But even those who have practiced cannot tie the gauze with one hand. Just when she was about to use her mouth, a pair of beautiful hands stretched out, and she was completely stunned.
It makes no sense. For someone like Musijue, who has traveled all over the country since he was a child, lived in deserts and walked through tropical rainforests, his hands should be extremely rough. How can he still look so good
Slender and strong, with well-defined joints, even the thin calluses on the fingers look extremely beautiful...
The gauze was tied quickly, and Xu Youning came to his senses and smiled at Mu Sijue: "Thank you, seventh brother. This is the first time someone has helped me treat the wound. I am so touched!"
"How touched are you?" Mu Sijue suddenly came over, "Do you want to pledge yourself to me?"
His voice was so charming, Xu Youning subconsciously put his hands on his chest and looked at Mu Sijue blankly. Not only his breathing, but also his heartbeat was completely disrupted...
She was like a bewildered little animal, looking at Musijue uneasily with wide eyes, and the struggle in her eyes was obvious.
Mu Sijue narrowed his eyes slightly and approached her ambiguously like a hunter. Xu Youning could even feel his warm breath, and his hands involuntarily grasped the sofa.
She saw that Musijue's eyes were getting darker and darker, filled with things that she didn't seem to understand...
She kept giving herself hints and telling herself to calm down. Finally, her breathing and heartbeat gradually returned to normal, but her ability to think seemed to have been taken away...
She subconsciously wanted to close her eyes and calmly accept what was going to happen next.
However, just a second before she closed her eyes—
"Tsk—" Mu Sijue laughed briefly and teasingly.
Xu Youning suddenly came back to his senses and glared at Mu Sijue with wide eyes and dissatisfaction. He stood up as if nothing had happened, with a smile on his lips: "I told you before, I'm not interested in tablets."
Xu Youning: "..."
A terrible feeling of being teased between applause arises spontaneously.
This is Xu Youning's biggest shame in his life.
She gritted her teeth and was about to pounce to bite someone when Mu Sijue had already put his hands in his pockets and turned around gently and delicately to go upstairs. She could only make fierce gestures at his back, punching and kicking him.
Damn, being handsome can seduce people, it’s amazing! (To be continued)
