At six in the morning, Bai Jin Xi opens her eyes.
In front of me is the gray and old ceiling, and the electric fan in the corner is blowing. A few simple but half-worn furniture in warm tones, bathed in the morning light. On the windowsill is a pot of small Guanyin lotus, green like jade, blooming quietly.
Bai Jin Xi stretches out her hand and presses her forehead to wake herself up a bit, then sit up.
She is addicted to smoking, but she is always worried that one day her teeth and fingers will be stained yellow and it will not look good. After struggling for a while as usual, he took out a cigarette case on the table and sat beside the bed to puff.
Another new day.
Bai Jin Xi lives alone in the old city, and the downstairs are full of steaming breakfast shops. She bought a bowl of noodles and started eating while standing on the street. The old man and the old lady of the neighbors passed by, and they all greeted her with a smile, and some people stuffed her with two meat buns.
At this moment, the phone rang, and Zhou Xiaozhuan's resentful voice came: "Boss! Where have you been? Don't forget today's task again!"
Bai Jin Xi is shocked, but her tone is calm: "I didn't forget, where have you been?"
"I've already arrived at the gate of Guanhu Erxiao."
Bai Jin Xi reaches out and stops a taxi: "I'll be there soon."
Sitting in the car, she still didn't remember what the mission was today.
Since she had an accident after graduating from the police academy four years ago, she has had a little memory problem. I often get lost, and sometimes I forget the tasks assigned by the office.
Fortunately, what she forgot was basically the little things. In important cases, she seems to have an instinct to keep every detail in mind. In addition, Zhou Xiaozhuan reminded him to help, so far, he has not delayed the business.
Arriving at the entrance of the elementary school, and seeing Zhou Xiaozhuan with a neat police uniform, her hair clearly jelly, and her hair being brushed, Bai Jin Xi finally remembered what she was here for today.
—
School hall.
The "flowers of the motherland" were obviously very interested in the two police officers who came to do the security training, and they kept chatting around and asking questions. Several teachers stood outside with a smile, and the atmosphere was warm and lively.
A little boy asked Zhou Xiaozhuan, "Uncle police officer, have you ever shot a bad guy?"
The question was slightly violent, and all the children waited curiously.
Zhou Xiaozhuan touched his head first and corrected: "My name is brother."
"elder brother… "
Only then did Zhou Xiaozhuan raise his head and look around for a week, and replied in a particularly imposing manner, "Of course, I have caught a lot of bad guys."
The applause sounded, and Zhou Xiaozhuan received the admiration of countless children and was complacent. On the side, Bai Jin Xi sneered at the corners of his mouth, which meant: If you really know how to avoid important things, just ignore them, you have never fired a gun in actual combat.
Zhou Xiaozhuan also glanced at her very calmly, which meant: "Crows don't laugh at pigs with black noses, isn't your gun also covered with dust?"
There have been no major cases in Jiangcheng in recent years. Although the two have cracked several rape and murder cases, the criminals are basically lame, leaving various clues and evidence at the scene. Wherever you can use a gun, just ambush and arrest people. Zhou Xiaozhuan even had a hunch that he would be like the other old detectives in the bureau, and he might not have fired a single shot when he got old.
At this time, another little girl asked Bai Jin Xi, "Sister, will you be as beautiful as you when you become a police officer?"
Everyone is looking at Bai Jin Xi.
She froze for a moment and smiled. He squatted down and looked at the little girl, and answered with a serious face: "Yes, today's children are all very beautiful. They must look better than me in police uniforms."
In the afternoon, the two drove away from the elementary school. Zhou Xiaozhuan sighed while driving: "Boss, I was really afraid that you would tell the truth just now - today's children are not good-looking."
Bai Jin Xi was silent for a moment, then smiled, "How is that possible? Children's hearts are the purest and purest in the world, how can I bear to make them feel a little bit sad?"
Zhou Xiaozhuan was slightly startled when he heard this.
Sometimes, he thinks the boss is a complicated person. Usually looks cool and dragging, a lot of faults, smug and selfish. But sometimes, she always pops out one or two words that are soft to your bones.
There are vicissitudes in the softness, and you can't help but feel sad.
Bai Jin Xi was silent for a while, but the cigarette addiction relapsed.
Then suddenly I remembered the Su Yan I smelled yesterday.
The smell is clear and strong, mixed with the aroma of coffee, which is impressive.
She rolled her eyes and turned to look at Zhou Xiaozhuan: "Go to the plain night club."
Zhou Xiaozhuan was stunned for a moment, and then he looked embarrassed: "Really?" Those were the people the Director would not allow them to provoke.
"go!"
He didn't say much.
Why does Bai Jin Xi have to find out? Nature dictates. In her territory, such an indistinguishable person from friend and foe came to her. Even if there was nothing on the surface, she had to find out about him in the dark.
—
In the twilight, the once splendid nightclub was dark and silent at the moment. The key that Bai Jin Xi took yesterday is still there, and the two easily slipped in.
The lobby on the first floor was a mess, and the private room on the second floor was empty and quiet, with no one there. Bai Jin Xi asked Zhou Xiaozhuan to follow him at the entrance of the stairs, and went to explore by himself.
Slowly pushing open the door of the box, what I saw was no different from yesterday. The solemn screen, the quiet orchid, everything is antique and quiet like a dream.
The sky was already dark, shrouding the entire room in a blur. She crept in and closed the door.
There is no one in the room. With years of criminal investigation instinct, she was able to determine this. So she relaxed a lot, turned on her flashlight, and started rummaging around in the room.
On the mahogany couch was a men’s coat, Bai Jin Xi picked it up lightly, flipped through the pockets, but found nothing, and put the clothes back as they were; there was still half a box of unsmoked cigarettes on the coffee table, Bai Jin Xi picked it up and smelled it , don't say, it smells really good, it's a top-quality product. It was a pity that it was too expensive for the criminal police, and she was never reluctant to buy it.
Reluctantly, she put the cigarette back into the distance, and when she saw the ashtray full of cigarette butts, her eyes lit up, she picked one out with her long, gloved fingers, and put it in the evidence bag and sealed it. With DNA, I'm afraid I can't find out his details...
Bai Jin Xi makes a move.
Because she suddenly felt a chill hit her back.
Maybe it was a slight change in some kind of atmosphere in the room, maybe it was a sound that was almost inaudible, or maybe it was intuition, and a very strong thought occurred in her heart—
There is someone behind.
The man was standing silently somewhere, maybe when she stepped into the room, he was dormant, looking at her all the time.
Bai Jin Xi only feels that every hair on his body is standing up. There is no doubt that she has encountered a difficult person, and her anti-reconnaissance ability is even stronger than her... Between the electric light and flint, she suddenly felt an aura approaching from behind, accompanied by very light and fast footsteps, and...
A punch!
He sensed her pause and made a preemptive strike!
It was too late to turn around, Bai Jin Xi decisively threw the thing in his hand, reached out and grabbed his arm, wanting to slam his shoulders hard.
"Hmph..." In the darkness, the man heard a low sneer. Bai Jin Xi screams in her heart! In the next second, he felt a strong force attacking his arms, and he twisted his arms in reverse.
Bai Jin Xi instantly became unsteady and fell to the couch in front of her. She lifted her foot decisively and kicked the man's knee. The man probably didn't expect her to be able to complete such a small-angle and difficult attack when her body was out of balance.
Bai Jin Xi is overjoyed.
Then…
She felt a warm male body, pouring over to herself!
The night was quiet and the room was getting darker. The chirping of Xia Chan outside the window came with a crisp sound.
Bai Jin Xi is lying on her back on the couch, even though they both fell together, she didn't gain the slightest advantage - her hands were tied by the man, her body was suppressed by him, and she couldn't move for a while.
Bai Jin Xi's breathing gradually becomes rapid.
In summer, the clothes were thin, and she was wearing short sleeves. She could clearly feel the flexible muscles on the man's arm rubbing against hers. His ten fingers are slender and strong, with a slight coolness, clasping her hand tightly. And his waist was close to hers, and his thighs pressed against hers. She felt his weight and strength, and also the temperature of his body, and some sort of masculine scent mixed with tobacco.
And his face was just over a foot away. It was a handsome, fuzzy face, and she could only see the outline. However, his eyes were dark and sharp, concealing a trace of hostility, and he stared at her condescendingly. The man's warm breath sprayed onto her face so recklessly.
Bai Jin Xi's face suddenly turned red, and shouted, "Let go of me!"
The man ignored her at all, and with a flick of his right hand, there was already an extra sharp knife.
Bai Jin Xi's heart froze. The next second, the blade was already on her neck. As sharp as the blade, it was his eyes, dark and threatening, as if soaked in a layer of frost and snow.
"Why are you checking me?" he asked slowly.
Bai Jin Xi's neck already felt a slight tingling pain, she secretly swallowed her saliva, and answered in a clear voice, "It's just curiosity, and it's also my duty. This area is my jurisdiction, you are mysterious, how can I be at ease if you don't know? "
After a brief silence, the man's mouth twitched slightly.
"Can't convince me," he said flatly.
—
five minutes later.
This is definitely the most humiliating moment in Bai Jin Xi's criminal police career.
She was tied to a chair by him with nylon rope.
And he sat down on the sofa one meter away, his movements calm and calm.
Bai Jin Xi endured it, suppressed the anger in her heart, and quickly calculated in her mind: The sound insulation effect of this top-level private room is obviously too good, they are fighting inside, but Zhou Xiaozhuan outside doesn't hear at all; Zhou Xiaozhuan is also an axis Yes, seeing that she hasn't come out for so long, I don't know how to take a look...
She raised her head and looked at the man opposite again.
In the dim light, this time she could see clearly that he was wearing a simple shirt and trousers. The shirt is still dark, and the body is tall and slender. His outline was still vague, but his neck was straight and slender.
At first glance, she is a ruthless master, and she will never show pity to her.
At this moment, he tilted his head and lit a cigarette, took two puffs and tucked them between his fingers, his hands hanging on the side of the sofa, his attitude was lazy and cold.
"Did you say so?" he asked.
"I am telling the truth."
He watched her silently for a while.
"Then just stay like this." He slowly got up and walked into the bathroom on the side.
Bai Jin Xi watched him close the door and took a deep breath.
The man quickly came out of the bathroom.
Looking at the first glance in the room, he was stunned. Then he reached out and turned on the light.
The interior is instantly bright.
There was an empty chair in the middle, nylon ropes were thrown on the ground, people had already run away, and the door was open.
The man was silent for a moment, then suddenly smiled.
—
Zhou Xiaozhuan followed Bai Jinxi and rushed out of the nightclub all the way. Seeing her blushing and tears streaming down her face, Zhou Xiaozhuan was completely stunned.
And Bai Jin Xi suffered a big loss, so how could he be willing to tell others and lose face? So she was silent all the way, her steps were quick, and only tears still flowed silently. It wasn't until he returned to the police car in the back alley that he couldn't bear it any longer. He brought his right arm, which had been hanging down beside him, in front of Zhou Xiaozhuan.
Zhou Xiaozhuan was taken aback: "How did it happen?" It turned out to be crying in pain!
He held her arm: "hold back."
"Crack!" With a crisp sound, Bai Jin Xi screamed.
Zhou Xiaozhuan sent her into the co-pilot distressedly: "What the hell is going on
Bai Jin Xi: "... accidentally bumped into it. That person didn't leave any clues and found nothing."
"Oh." Although Zhou Xiaozhuan couldn't believe it, he also thought about it, how could the boss suffer so badly. It is indeed more likely that he will be injured in a careless manner.
Bai Jin Xi looks out of the window with her arms crossed, but the more she thinks about it, the more aggrieved: You must know that when she took off her arm just now, it was more painful than putting it back on now!
