"What's going on?" Mu Yu turned around and asked.
"Let's talk after washing." Qin Jinhuan closed the door smoothly.
He only wanted to tell himself not to tire himself out from investigating the case, but Mu Yu didn't take it to heart. While washing, he thought about the day when the case would be solved, he was as excited as a tireless top, and he didn't feel sleepy at all.
After washing up, she thought Qin Jinhuan would be waiting for her under the quilt because it would be dawn soon, but she didn't expect that he would still be sitting on the bed with his clothes on, leaning against the bedside.
"You haven't taken a shower yet?" Mu Yu immediately walked to the closet, "I'll get you a bathrobe."
"Xiaoyu!" He stood up quickly and pulled her over, "I've washed it."
"Then why are you still not sleeping?" She hugged him and laughed, "Are you the same as me, too excited to sleep because the case is about to be solved?"
He did not smile, but looked at her seriously: "You have spent a lot of time and energy investigating this case. Now that the case is coming to an end, let Rong Jian and the others do the rest."
"How can that be done?!" She pushed him away, "Although I'm just a forensic doctor, since Director Gu assigned the task to me, I must persist until the last minute!"
"I worry about you."
"Then you should protect me well. You..." His strange look made Mu Yu realize that something was wrong, and his expression suddenly became serious, "Ah Huan, do you have something to go back to Ancheng?"
As expected, he nodded: "I have been in Huacheng for many days and I have to go back."
Understanding his worries, she took his hand and solemnly promised: "Go back, don't worry about me, I will protect myself."
He held her hand instead: "I'm not worried."
"It's okay, aren't there Captain Rong and Officer Liu here? They will protect me."
"They are all busy investigating the case, and they will definitely not care about you."
"Then, either you leave Cheng Xiang here and let him protect me, how about that?" Seeing that he was still hesitating, she shook his arm coquettishly, "Okay, I promise you will never act without permission, except Isn’t it okay to stay out of Cheng Xiang’s sight at night and at other times?”
Knowing that he couldn't persuade her to leave, Qin Jinhuan didn't insist anymore. He just warned her with a worried look: "No matter where you are going, you must tell me your whereabouts in advance. You must not go anywhere I have not agreed."
"No problem!" She nodded exaggeratedly.
“Mobile phone positioning must also be turned on at all times.”
She nodded and made an OK gesture with both hands.
"You must not participate in dangerous things!"
"I understand, I will always remember that I am just a weak woman who needs protection from others. I should stay away from anything that is even remotely dangerous. I must be 100% sure that I am safe. Is that okay?"
She teased him with jokes, trying to make him feel at ease, but her method had no effect at all. There was no smile on his face, and his brows were still knitted together.
"Either this, I will only be responsible for working with Team Rong to find out the identity of the murderer. As for the arrest of the murderer, I will not participate. I will wait for their news at the Royal Hyatt. Can you rest assured now? "
"When the time comes, go to Ancheng and wait for news. I'll have someone pick you up."
"No, no! I..." Suddenly thinking that the murderer might be in Ancheng, and that his argument was meaningless, Mu Yu immediately changed his mind, "Okay, I will contact you when the time comes."
Anyway, you can still find excuses when the time comes.
Qin Jinhuan saw her little thoughts, but he didn't say anything more. He knew that no matter what he said, it would be nonsense.
"when are you leaving?"
"Go to the airport at six o'clock."
"So urgent?!" Mu Yu asked in great panic, "Isn't there another murder in your company?!"
"No, it's just that there are some things in the company that I have to deal with personally. I was supposed to go back the day before yesterday, but I've been in the way for two days. I can't go back anymore."
"Oh." She sighed secretly, comforting herself that if a murder really happened, she wouldn't be unaware of it.
She looked at her watch and saw that it was still early at six o'clock, so she stepped forward to take off his clothes: "There are still a few hours, let's sleep for a while."
He nodded, took off his clothes three times, got into bed, and at the same time pulled her in and hugged her tightly.
Knowing that he was reluctant to leave her, she pretended to be relaxed and put her arms around him, smiling softly: "The case is about to be solved, and we will meet again in a few days."
This is also her expectation and a beautiful psychological hint for herself.
He didn't say much, he just held her in his arms, kissed her hair gently, and then said, "Go to sleep."
She enjoyed his embrace and squeezed her head into his embrace. Then she chose the most comfortable sleeping position and said, "Call me when you leave and I will see you off." After feeling him nod, Then she closed her eyes.
Maybe it was because her body was really tired, or maybe the bed was too soft and his arms were too warm. As soon as she closed her eyes, her brain that was thinking about the case became confused and no longer listened to her. After his brain struggled for a while, he finally couldn't resist the fatigue and slowly calmed down.
When she woke up from enough sleep, the surrounding light was still very dark. She habitually put her hand next to Qin Jinhuan beside her. When she was free, she remembered that he was going back to Ancheng today, and immediately sat up. She tried calling "Ah Huan" from left to right, but when there was no reply, she quickly looked at her watch and saw that it was already ten o'clock in the morning. She suddenly jumped up as if she had been stabbed by a needle in her butt.
It turned out that Qin Jinhuan did not open the curtains after getting up, and also dimmed the bedside lamp, so she did not know that it was already bright.
After turning on the light she called him. The call was answered by Bian Zijun, who told her that her boss was holding a very important meeting: "Young lady, please wait a moment, I will go now..."
"No, no, don't disturb his meeting. I have nothing to do with him, so I just wanted to ask when he arrived."
"I arrived before going to work. When I arrived, my boss wanted to call you, but he was afraid that if you didn't wake up, it would disturb your drowsiness, so he didn't call. He told me before the meeting that if you call, just let me know Send the phone over and see..."
"Just ask him to call me after driving. I'm going to eat first."
"OK."
Mu Yu hung up the phone and quickly got up to wash and change clothes. After packing, she called Rong Jian and asked if he was still at the hotel.
"I'm not in the hotel, I'm at my friend's place in the city bureau. I have something to do now, so just stay in the hotel and I'll contact you later."
"Oh." Guessing that he was investigating Xiao Xia's identity, she didn't dare to waste his time, immediately hung up the phone, and then left the room on her own.
"Young mistress! Where are you going?" Cheng Xiang lived in the room opposite Mu Yu and the door was not closed, so he heard the noise as soon as Mu Yu opened the door and followed him out immediately.
"We're not going anywhere. We're going to the restaurant to see if there's anything to eat."
"What do you want to eat? I'll get it for you."
"Whatever, as long as it fills your stomach." Mu Yu himself is not picky about food, not to mention that the hotel has specially arranged a top-notch chef for them, so whatever he cooks will be delicious.
However, her words still made Cheng Xiang scratch his head: "Young Madam, can you specify the same thing?"
"Then, let's just have noodles or dumplings." It was still mid-morning, and she didn't want to cause too much trouble to the chef.
"Okay. You can go back to your room and rest. Okay, I'll have someone take you to your room." Cheng Xiang, who was already prepared, called immediately after saying that.
At this time, Kou Muyu did not go back to the room immediately, but stood aside and waited for him to finish the call.
"Young mistress? Do you have any other instructions?" Cheng Xiang
He hung up the phone and looked at her in surprise.
"Is there any progress in Xiaoxia's case?" she asked Cheng Xiang, who got up earlier than her.
"There is no progress yet, but Team Rong went to the city bureau early in the morning, probably to investigate Xiaoxia's identity. However, there is no news yet, so the investigation may not go smoothly for the time being."
Mu Yu knew that there was no file on Xiao Xia's suicide case at the Back Street Police Station. At this time, seeing Rong Jian working so hard to find Xiao Xia's identity, he couldn't help but feel a little angry.
When she was about to go back to her room, Cheng Xiang chased after her and said, "Young lady, the Yangcheng police said that Gong Lilan took her daughter to Qingyuan County, and Xiaofan went to Qingyuan County to find them."
Mu Yu was immediately surprised and asked, "Have you found it?"
"Qingyuan County is more than 100 kilometers away from Huacheng. He didn't set off until after eight o'clock. He may not have arrived by now."
"Is Qingyuan County also under the jurisdiction of Huacheng?"
Cheng Xiang nodded: "Qingyuan is the most remote and backward county in Huacheng City. It is said that the per capita income was only a few hundred yuan in the past few years, and it has only improved slightly in recent years. I was so impressed by Gong Lilan that I took my daughter to hide there I'm in a ravine, how can I endure such a bad environment? If I were to live in such a place, it would be better for me to be hacked to death by the murderer."
Mu Yu didn't agree with his words: "My father used to say, 'When a person is gone, his life will be gone.' Maybe now that it has come to this, you won't think so anymore."
"Maybe."
Just as she was talking, Mu Yu's cell phone rang. Seeing that it was Weng Yun's call, she answered the call suspiciously.
"Young lady, I have a clue here!" Weng Yun reported excitedly, "A dealer who supplied goods to Zhao Yongli recognized Li Jianyun. According to his confession, there was a period of time six years ago when he was working specifically for his family. The driver of the small truck that delivered the goods had some kind of surgery and was unable to drive for a while, so he temporarily hired Li Jianyun as the driver. I contacted the owner of the small truck who hired Li Jianyun as the driver. He found out the medical records of that year and said that he was the driver. The surgery was performed in October, and Li Jianyun was hired in mid-October. It was originally agreed that the car would be driven until March of next year, but then Li Jianyun resigned before the agreed time. The owner did not remember the specific time of resignation, but only remembered that in the year It was very cold before. Xiaoxia's accident happened in the winter six years ago. By the way, the time when Li Jianyun resigned was very close. The car owner also provided a clue. He said that there was a car accident a few days before Li Jianyun resigned. Li Jianyun drove back at around three o'clock in the morning. He said that he had a habit of seeing his car driving back before he could sleep peacefully. I suspected that that night was the night when Xiao Xia's accident happened. "
"Didn't you ask the car owner if he knew why Li Jianyun came back so late that night?"
"When asked, he said that Li Jianyun said he was unlucky that night and always wanted to make money back, so it was too late. As for whether Li Jianyun told the truth, it is unknown now."
"Where did Li Jianyun usually play before?"
"There is a leisure room converted from a household waste warehouse on the east side of the first floor of the flea market. The leisure room is still there. The people who go there are usually the porters or drivers in the market, as well as nearby shopkeepers, such as Zhajinhua and Dou. Li Jianyun used to be a regular visitor there. "
"I want to find his former poker friends to find out more about the situation. Maybe they will know something." Mu Yu said while motioning for Cheng Xiang to drive.
"You haven't eaten the noodles yet," Cheng Xiang reminded.
"I'm not hungry. I'll wait for you at the gate." After Mu Yu finished speaking, he continued talking on the phone, "We'll meet at the gate of the flea market."
She hung up the phone before Weng Yun could say anything. She was afraid that Qin Jinhuan and his subordinates wouldn't let her go.
Of course, she also knew that Rong Jian had investigated Li Jianyun's poker friends, but she felt that going there now had a purpose and she should have a better understanding of the situation.
Not long after, she arrived at the door of the hotel, and while she was waiting for Cheng Xiang, someone suddenly tapped her shoulder from behind. When she looked back, she was stunned.
