According to the current clues, the sequence of events is as follows:
When Xie Qingcheng's parents were investigating a certain case, they took care of themselves in the Yanzhou clubhouse. Soon after, Xie Ping and Zhou Muying were both demoted again, and then they were killed by a spontaneous combustion truck during their daily outings.
And one week after the death of Xie's "wife", Wei Rong, who was newly married, also died, and the cause of death was actually a car accident.
Xie Qingcheng checked Wei Rong's husband Meng Sheng's remarriage time, which was half a year after the woman's death. This time point is also very intriguing. Under normal circumstances, if a person's newly married spouse dies unexpectedly, even if the living one wants to remarry, it will take at least three years and five years.
There are three reasons why the wife is eager to marry a new "wife" right after her death.
First, before the wife died, she hooked up with her new love, and when she died, the main house just made the mistress take the position.
Second, Li still maintains the very backward habit of "Chongxi".
Third, there is no relationship between husband and wife.
Among the marriages between big clans, the third situation is the most common, but Meng Sheng married another woman in less than half a year when Weirong's body was still cold and died unexpectedly. This kind of behavior should be blamed on Weirong. mother.
However, the strange thing is that the relationship between Meng and Wei was not greatly affected because of this. It is still time to cooperate and walk. It seems that Wei does not blame Meng Sheng for this behavior.
So far, the investigation has fallen into a fog of "mystery".
However, behind this woman named Wei Rong, there is a precious clue that can solve the murder of his parents. This is beyond doubt.
At the same time, Xie Qingcheng was also slightly relieved - he always thought that his parents were behind the scenes at the beginning, but now it seems that his parents may be the victims, since Wei Rong is also the victim, then this conspiracy may not be the case. It will involve Xie Xue's mother-in-law.
He can continue to explore along this road.
In the blink of an eye, Xiaoshu arrived, Xie Qingcheng took a break from his busy schedule and cooked a pot of peas and ham stewed rice.
Because he has restarted the case investigation, and at the same time has to race against time to sort out Lao Qin's writings, the two major things are all on him, even if he re-stimulates his early imperial power with rn-13, and maintains the far superior A normal person's dimensional agility can't help but feel extremely tired.
"Eating ham and pea rice in Xiaoshu is the best way to replenish physical and mental strength."
This is what Zhou Muying told him when he was a child. Although there is no scientific basis, sometimes psychological comfort is far more important than scientific basis.
Wash the Northeast rice, add diced sausage and bacon, and simmer in the kettle together. It is a very simple summer dish, but it is fragrant and fragrant after it is out of the pot. The entrance is soft and glutinous, and the plump rice grains absorb the sausage and bacon. Fat, even Xie Xue, who doesn't like peas, will serve three bowls in a row.
This was the first time Xie Qingcheng had cooked a pot of pea rice, but he was the only one to eat it.
"… boiled."
He looked at the pot full of rice and wanted to call Xie Xue, but finally put down the machine and sighed.
In the afternoon, the second brother Wei gave Xie Qing a call, saying that the police had given the final investigation result of the poisoning case at Wei's Wedding Banquet Villa.
"As far as the fuck is concerned, from the remaining incense ashes, they have identified high concentrations of hallucinogens and 'fascination' love agents, there is no doubt that someone is deliberately doing things, but the waitress has repeatedly arraigned It's been a month, but I haven't provided any meaningful clues." Wei Er said, "She is patient, and the spy's mouth is not as strict as her."
Xie Qingcheng suddenly asked, "Does she have any symptoms of nosebleeds?"
"No." Wei Erqi, "Why do you ask that?"
Xie Qingcheng: "...Nothing."
Although Huang Zhilong's company has been connected to the pot, the core secret of "obedient water" is still only in the hands of a few people. Once the existence of this chemical is completely announced, the consequences will be disastrous.
Meiyu later studied it carefully. Although the new version of Obedient Water is very similar to rn-13, the power and side effects of Obedient Water are far lower than those of rn-13. Its effect on the human body is only temporary. At present, it is not easy. Cause a disease as severe as mental Ebola.
However, it may still cause varying degrees of harm to the user.
Such as depression, bipolar disorder, delusional disorder... Some people with severe reactions will also experience coma, drowsiness and other phenomena like Xie Xue. And whether obedient water will cause similar damage to the victim, after aesthetic education research, the main criterion is to see if there is intermittent "intermittent" nosebleed symptoms within two months.
If there is, it must be treated.
If not, it means that the obedient water did not cause harm to the individual case, and no further intervention is required.
"But He is also weird." Wei Er was on the other end of the phone, "This matter has involved their eldest son, but they have been ignorant of the progress of the police's investigation this month, not even face to face. Lu', as if not very interested."
Xie Qingcheng: "...Probably they think that the original target of the poisoner was not He Yu, and it was not He who wanted to plot against it."
"That's still outrageous." Wei Er's tone was full of dissatisfaction, "Anyway, something happened to their child, right? I heard that He Pianchong was famous before, and his parents only saw the little one. I still don’t believe it, but this time I know it.”
Xie Qingcheng did not comment on this, but asked: "What is the final investigation result?"
"That "medicine" powder is not available in China, but in the Golden Triangle, the anti-narcotics police once seized it together with the drugs/substances. 'Soul Fragrance." Wei Er, "It's foreign, it's hard to track down, but the other party has committed a crime on the head of our surname Wei, and this matter will go abroad to find out the truth. Don't worry. We guard people, not so much. It's easy to bully, and it won't be like He, who doesn't even care about his relatives."
"… thanks."
Wei Er, the military ruffian, snapped his fingers and smiled: "You're welcome, just one person."
After hanging up the phone, Xie Qingcheng couldn't help frowning slightly.
Judging from his confrontation with Lu Zhishu at the time, Lu Zhishu was very concerned about the reputation of his family, but why did she not pay attention to this case at all
Also, what about He Jiwei? Why didn't he take care of it... In Xie Qingcheng's impression, He Jiwei was not such a person. He at least cared a little bit about He Yu.
However, he has completely broken with He now, and no one can answer these doubts for him.
In the evening, Xie Qingcheng had just finished heating the pea rice, and was about to go back to work after dinner.
Unexpectedly, when the rice cooker was turned on, there was a hesitant knock on the door outside.
Xie Qingcheng opened the door, slightly surprised.
"...Chen slow."
Standing at the door was Chen Yan, whom he had not seen since the wedding banquet.
Chen Wan later apologized to him, gave him a message, made a phone call, but Xie Qingcheng didn't say anything, meaning that the past is over, and such absurd things will never happen in the future, so as not to embarrass each other.
Chen Han wanted to Xie Qingcheng for the second time, but Xie Qing also refused. Who knew that he would come directly to the door today.
"Brother Xie..." It could be seen that Chen Wan was very nervous. He first handed Xie Qingcheng a bunch of gift boxes he brought, and then said uneasily, "Will you come in and have a seat?"
"… "
When everyone came, it was not appropriate for people to eat behind closed doors, so Xie Qingcheng opened the door and turned to his side.
Chen slow entered the house, Xie Qingcheng did not close the door, but left it open, and the surrounding neighbors watched the situation in his house.
The atmosphere between them used to be as natural as brothers, but now it's too stiff to speak.
Long silence.
Finally, Xie Qingcheng spoke first: "Have you eaten yet?"
"Not yet..."
Xie Qingcheng turned around and added a pair of bowls and chopsticks, filled a bowl of rice with peas and salted pork, and said to Chen Shan, "Sit down and eat first. If you have something to do, talk while you eat."
During this process, he never looked into Chen slow's eyes.
Chen Wan also ate pea rice made by Xie Qingcheng when he was a child. It was Xiaoshu in the second year after his brother left. He came to Xie Qingcheng and asked Xie Qingcheng to teach him his homework. Xie Qingcheng patiently put all the I combed through all the knowledge points with him. When it was time for dinner, he greeted Chen Man and Xie Xue to the small courtyard in Yuxiang. The three of them ate pea rice and drank watermelon juice under the white orchid tree...
Thinking about it now, it's like a dream.
"Brother Xie, I came here today to apologize to you. In the villa that day,—"
Xie Qingcheng interrupted him: "You have already given the news and made a phone call. You don't have to talk about this matter in the future."
Chen Gan looked at the man sitting across from him and insisted: "No, brother, please let me finish this time. Because... because I will be leaving Shanghai soon."
Xie Qingcheng paused when he was about to eat with chopsticks, and for the first time his eyes fell on Chen slow's face.
He saw that the young man's face had lost a lot of weight.
"… "
"I'm going to leave Huzhou soon." Chen slow said again, there seemed to be water vapor in his voice.
Xie Qingcheng: "...to Yanzhou?"
Chen slow shook his head: "Guangshi."
"Where are you going?"
Chen slow lowered his head, and after a while, he raised his eyes and looked sad and determined: "I applied for a transfer. The immigration personnel in Guangzhou City have been lacking in criminal investigation for the past two years. I applied for transfer to be a front-line criminal policeman there. . . . I have received a notice of adjustment, the day after tomorrow, I will be leaving."
Xie Qingcheng: "..."
The fan in the house was shaking its head, and the slight humming became the only source of sound in the house.
Xie Qingcheng put down the tableware and chopsticks with a slap. Suddenly, he said sharply, "Chen Yan, what the hell are you trying to do? Are you crazy?!"
Chen slow lowered his head and said nothing.
Xie Qingcheng: "You don't know that the most dangerous jobs are lacking over there? The tasks with the fatality rate second only to the border of the Golden Triangle? You go to Guangzhou City to be a front-line criminal policeman with such a brain? Why don't you find a tree? Just fucking hang yourself!"
Chen slow's face flushed, and there seemed to be tears in his eyes.
Xie Qingcheng still thought it was not enough, and said angrily: "What are you crying for? Your brother should cry! Your parents, your mother, your grandfather should cry! I ask you, are you not alive? What are you trying to do, ah? Chang Qi's little brat, why the hell are you seeking your own death! Do you think you are a hero?!"
"Brother also-"
"Your brother is your brother! You are you! Your brother died when he was the first graduate of the police academy! His comrade-in-arms, who was at the same time as him, was also an apprentice of his parents, and he was also one of the top grades. Sacrifice! What about you?! You should stay at the police station, what's wrong with the police? Why are the police still divided into high and low?"
"No." Chen slow scolded his head and scolded his face, and finally retorted with a trembling voice, his eyes flashing agitation, "No, brother. I don't think there is anything wrong with the police, but I know that in Huzhou, in Under the care of you and your parents and grandfather, you will always be just a little child. You care, but no one looks down on...even yourself!"
"… "
"In the hotel that day, I completely lost my sense and judgment. If I was mature enough, I wouldn't do such a thing. I shouldn't have said such excessive and hurtful words to you." Chen Gan wiped away forcefully. With tears in his eyes, he faced Xie Qingcheng, "Brother Xie, right? You believed in it for so many years, and you stayed for so many years, but it hurt you like that. I feel that I have failed all your expectations and cares."
He wiped his tears, but his eyes were still red: "I don't know, what happened between you and He Yujian, but I know that no matter what Brother Xie you do, you are a very, very good person, and the secret behind this may not be worthy of understanding. , but to believe in you as you believe."
"… "
"Maybe it's the only way you'd like to take a real look."
Xie Qingcheng raised his forehead, his heart was burning: "Chen slow... Whether or not I see you, this is not a problem of your immaturity, but that I don't like you at all, and I don't like men..."
"You don't like men, so why do you want to be with He Yu?" Chen slow interrupted him.
Xie Qingcheng: "…"
One second, two seconds, three seconds.
He waited for an answer and couldn't wait.
And he couldn't think of an answer.
Always speechless.
Chen Gan's heart was cut like a knife: "Brother Xie... When you look at him... your eyes are different from what you see... I'm stupid, I haven't seen it for so long, until I recalled the past and realized... He is not only in your eyes. Just a protector, you look at his eyes... you... at school, in the hotel, when you look at him, the look is different from when you look at him... "
Xie Qingcheng didn't know it at all—could it be true
Chen slow choked: "I know, I know you don't like it. I'm naive, not smart enough... But I want to grow up, I want to be different from before, I don't want to look back at my life when I'm 80 years old, and it's so useless And bad. No master, forever like a child."
Xie Qingcheng closed his eyes: "... your parents, is your grandfather aware of this?"
"They found out yesterday."
"...How come you don't have a master." Xie Qingcheng gritted his back molars, whether he was angry or worried, he still cared about Chen Wan, "—you have a goddamn master, Chen Yan, you have a master Excellent! You are so arrogant! You once thought that among the three of you, He Yu, and Xie Xue, you would be the least disappointed. Now, it seems that you are completely wrong!"
Chen slow: "I don't want to be 'sex', I just want... I just want to be different."
"… "
"Just trying to sharpen myself and stop treating all of you as an object of protection."
"… "
"It's just... I just think, Brother Xie, if you grow up, maybe one day... maybe... there will be such a day, you are enough—"
He didn't finish.
Because Xie Qingcheng did not let him finish the second half of the sentence.
Xie Qingcheng already said: "I won't like you, Chen slow. It's your elder."
Chen Slow was silent for a long time: "What about He Yu?"
"...he's different."
"… "
"There is something wrong with him, and there is no way to explain it to anyone." Xie Qingcheng has never admitted his feelings in front of He Yu, but at this moment, he said such a remark in front of Chen Wan , "But He Yu is different. No second person is enough to replace."
After a pause, he continued: "If you take such a risk and go to Guangshi to be a criminal police officer, then you don't have to do it at all."
Chen Gan stared at him in a daze, and once again tears couldn't help but come out of his eyes.
He lifted up suddenly, covering his eyes, and after a while, he was hoarse: "... Not for you, Brother Xie."
"… "
"It's to stand in front of you." Chen slow hissed, "Sit on an equal footing."
After speaking, he bowed to Xie Qingcheng, unable to bear the sadness in his heart any longer, turned around and rushed out.
The bowl of pea rice that was similar to his childhood, Chen Slow didn't even touch it, it was already cold.
Xie Qingcheng sat down slowly, his expression hidden in his drooping forehead, no one could see what kind of look he had in his eyes.
After a while, he suddenly jumped up and overturned the table in a sudden burst of emotion. The food on the table fell to the ground. He gasped, and finally held his forehead and slumped to the ground...
He "feeled" a cigarette and lit it with a trembling.
But before he could get close to his lips, the smell of blood rushed to his chest, Xie Qingcheng coughed heavily, and cursed and threw the cigarette on the ground - the place was in a mess, as if mocking his life.
At the same time, He Zhai has a huge secret that is being born—
"...No, I've worked so hard for so long, but this time it's really lacking... Please everyone... mourn and change."
The emergency doctor who arrived did not put the person on the bed on the stretcher, and they made a judgment on the spot - this patient, when he died, had no body temperature.
The white cloth was slowly covered, covering the face of the deceased.
The villa was as silent as a grave.
