The table in the meeting room was already filled with hot meals. Although it was only delivered by the small restaurant in front of the Municipal Bureau, it looked delicious and delicious.
When a person is extremely hungry, who has the patience to go to a five-star hotel to eat king crab with few bites of meat? Isn’t he delicious with a big bowl of sweet and sour pork tenderloin with minced eggplant and fish-flavored shredded pork served with soft and glutinous white rice?
"Hurry up and eat, the boss will come to collect the dishes in half an hour." Chu Li looked at his watch.
"Half an hour!" Tang Xi glared at him.
"Half an hour is not enough to eat a meal? I have never seen you eat so slowly." Chu Li looked at her strangely.
"..." Tang Xi gritted his teeth. Is it the same as eating for less than half an hour by yourself and being prescribed a time to finish eating? Won't you have indigestion
"Forget it, just get used to it." Su Wanyi sighed and patted her on the shoulder.
At least there are hot meals and hot dishes to eat, which is much better than hot buns or even bread, biscuits and mineral water. People are satisfied!
Tang Xi... decided to turn grief and anger into appetite.
"Xixi, your physique is really good, no matter what you eat, you won't gain weight." Fang Tianyun looked envious.
In her bowl is a little shallow rice, covered with green vegetables, cucumbers, spinach, leeks... green and oily.
"It's good." Fang Tianchen who was sitting next to her threw a piece of braised pork into her bowl, and said, "Eat this little, how about feeding the cat? The amount of exercise is enough for you to consume, so why don't you eat too much! If you think it's too much , Go out and run ten laps around the police station before coming in again! Last time I was on the mountain, I wanted to say that my physical strength was too weak."
Fang Tianyun inexplicably provoked her brother to scold her for a while, with a depressed face: Are you my real brother
Su Wanyi touched Tang Xi's knee under the table, and signaled with her eyes: The third straight man in the universe!
Tang Xi nodded sympathetically, no wonder all of them were older men and young men.
However, no matter how big the opinion was, in fact, after a busy day, everyone was so hungry that in less than twenty minutes, the dishes on the table were scattered like fallen leaves in a gust of wind.
"I'm full, do you remember?" Chu Li asked.
"Wait!" Tang Xi stood up, thought for a while, and said, "Captain Chu and Captain Yan, as well as Brother Tianchen and Sister Yun, just stay here."
"It's so confidential." Su Wanyi smiled.
However, people in the system know best when to avoid suspicion, and they are the first to avoid public and private affairs.
Xiao Liu, who was the last to go out, closed the door of the meeting room.
Tang Xi walked into the small storage room inside the conference room, and locked the door.
"What are you doing?" Fang Tianyun, who was not present, asked.
Fang Tianchen explained today's experience in a low voice.
"It seems that the problem lies in the mirror." Fang Tianyun concluded.
"What can you think of?" Fang Tianchen asked.
"This..." Fang Tianyun bit her finger and shook her head for a while, "There was no grievance on that puppet, but at that time we were afraid of damaging the evidence and wanted to wait until you came back to check, so we didn't find the mirror fragment."
"Crack." The storage room door opened.
! ! !
All the people present staring at the door opened their eyes wide and froze on the spot.
"Brother?" Fang Tianyun looked at the people around him, and then at the one in the door, her eyes were shocked.
It wasn't Tang Xi who opened the door, but... Fang Tianchen!
From appearance, height to attire, they are exactly the same. Even Fang Tianyun, her own sister, cannot guarantee whether she can tell who is who after going out for a walk.
"Would you like to touch it?" Another "Fang Tianchen" said, and the voice was exactly the same.
Fang Tianyun stepped forward a few steps, and the first thing she touched was her Adam's apple. After being stunned, she poked her chest resolutely.
Hard, definitely a man's touch.
"Xixi?" Fang Tianyun couldn't believe it, and called out hesitantly.
"Does it look like it?" Tang Xi, who was wearing Fang Tianchen's shell, asked.
"Like!" Fang Tianyun blurted out. This is more than the degree of resemblance, it is clearly a clone!
Tang Xi smiled and turned around, as if tearing off a layer of hazy tulle from her body, and instantly restored her original appearance.
"This... how did you do it?" Yan Shifei asked hurriedly.
If Tang Xi could become Fang Tianchen, then of course others could become Tang Xi. The monitoring of Yang Qingrong's family was completely inaccurate, and even the turning around was to frame Tang Xi on purpose!
"Use this." Tang Xi raised his hand and threw a fragment of the mirror on the conference table.
"Is this the piece that Yang Qingrong took back from his bedroom?" Chu Li asked.
"En." Tang Xi nodded.
"Is it because... you threw the fragment to me at that time, and I used it to take pictures of myself?" Fang Tianchen thought for a while, and said with certainty.
Here, except for Yan Shifei, he and Tang Xi are the least familiar, and there are differences between men and women. He believes that if Tang Xi can change her appearance at will, Fang Tianyun must be the first choice. Even if she doesn't mind men and women, she should become Chu Li's. Appearance, but choose yourself, you must have done something that no one else has done.
"Brother Tianchen is really as careful as a hair." Tang Xi gave a thumbs up.
"Can you become that person after looking in the mirror?" Chu Li said in a deep voice.
"I've been thinking, who would look exactly like me?" Tang Xi said leisurely, "You have ruled out plastic surgery and face-changing, but then I suddenly realized that I'm really a dead end. People who are exactly like me , Isn’t this what you see every day? That’s yourself in the mirror. It’s strange if it’s a little different.”
"It's that simple?" Chu Li felt ridiculous.
"This also just explains why there are mirror fragments every time." Tang Xi said.
"This kind of thing is easy to do?" Yan Shifei only felt a chill in his heart.
If you look in the mirror, and the mirror can turn others into yourself, wouldn't the world be messed up? For example, if someone exactly like Chu Li killed someone on the street, should the city bureau arrest Chu Li first? After all, the Municipal Bureau can't explain to the public that there are gangsters who have had plastic surgery to look like the leader of the serious crime team and killed people. To be sprayed to death.
"Of course it won't be easy." Tang Xi glanced at him and said what was in his heart, "If it's convenient, don't talk about Team Chu, can I make a copy of Bureau Tan first? Or make a copy of Pei Qingzhi."
Yan Shifei was greatly relieved upon hearing this.
"What conditions are needed?" Chu Li asked directly.
"First of all, the mirror is the medium." Tang Xi picked up the mirror fragment again, with a solemn face, "When people look in the mirror, there are actually very, very few souls that are sucked into the mirror, and that is the real medium. So... this is no ordinary mirror."
Yan Shifei suddenly remembered the phrase "you will be sucked in" she said in the afternoon, and couldn't help laughing bitterly. Is this a joke come true
"Captain Chu, ask for a trace inspection, the mirror fragments brought back by Yang Qingrong's family, after putting them together again, is there one more or one missing!"
"Do you suspect that this fragment is alone?" Chu Li asked.
"No, I just picked this one up at random." Tang Xi shook her head, "If I'm not mistaken, and the mirror can be put together completely, then Yang Qingrong probably smashed it with his own hands."
"You mean the fake Yang Qingrong?" Chu Li confirmed.
"Yeah." Tang Xi thought for a while before saying, "They can use my face, probably because I looked in the mirror in the mountain hut."
"Let's not talk about this first." Yan Shifei asked anxiously, "Who will those bastards become next? We have to prepare in advance."
Tang Xi didn't speak, but turned to look at Chu Li.
"If it's that mirror, I've also looked at it." Chu Li's face was a little ugly.
Everyone looked at each other for a while, but Yan Shifei murmured: "Could I have guessed it, the number one trending search tomorrow is Team Chu killing people in the street?"
"It's not that exaggerated." Tang Xi waved his hand, "If it was so easy, they would still wait to see you again? Team Chu's trump card is of course only used in the most urgent moments."
No matter how powerful she was, the mirror could only reproduce her appearance, not her abilities, so her face would not be as easy to use as the face of Chu Li, the leader of the serious crime team.
"How do you know?" Fang Tianyun asked, "Xixi, does this kind of technique consume a lot of energy?"
"This is a reason." Tang Xi nodded, "Even if it is me, it is not so easy to become Brother Tianchen, and the process of transformation consumes spiritual power all the time. Of course, this is also because I only use a mirror A small piece of it, not a whole piece, and brother Tianchen is very strong."
"You mean, the stronger the target, the more spiritual power it consumes?" Fang Tianyun's eyes lit up.
"That's natural." Tang Xi sneered, "So when he becomes Yang Qingrong's idiot, even if he will be relieved at home, judging by the time he goes out, at least one day and a half at a time will be no problem. But becoming me... "
"How long?" Fang Tianyun asked subconsciously.
"Three seconds." Tang Xi replied.
"Three seconds?" Fang Tianchen asked puzzled, "How do you know that?"
"Surveillance." Yan Shifei said in a deep voice, "Surveillance at Yang Qingrong's house, the time for that girl to show her face was exactly three seconds. If it was unintentional, she had been avoiding the camera. There is no reason to be stupid suddenly. If it was to frame Tang Xi, there's no need to avoid it carefully. The only explanation is that she can only show up with this face for three seconds, and if she is exposed to the camera at other times, she will pass through!"
"Look for pictures and get all the surveillance cameras on the streets near Repulse Bay on December 9!" Chu Li said decisively, "That light blue down jacket is too bright at night, but it limits our vision. Wear the down jacket upside down in the blind spot of the surveillance—the double-sided one, and change your face, even if it is caught by the surveillance, it will be ignored.”
"Then how do I find it?" Fang Tianyun was a little silly.
"Look for shoes!" Chu Li and Yan Shifei said in unison.
"I'll go, I've watched those surveillance at least a dozen times." The two looked at each other, Yan Shifei strode out, and shouted, "Xiao Zhang Xiaolai, work when you're full! Fight all night tonight!"
Chu Li finally explained: "Down jackets can be worn backwards, jeans are too unremarkable, but normal people change clothes, even if they change from the inside to the outside, there is a high probability that they will not change shoes. Shoes are not easy to carry, and they are not easy to destroy.”
In an instant, everyone's hearts lit up.
"I understand now." Fang Tianchen pondered, "You are full of evil spirits, it will not be much easier to copy you than Xiao Tang. If the time is too short, it is indeed only enough to appear for a moment at a critical moment."
"And at least recently, even at critical moments, he may not be able to use it." Tang Xi said again.
"How to say?" Several people looked at her in surprise.
"Because of Yang Qingrong." Tang Xi said, "I just said that the mirror in the master bedroom was probably broken by Yang Qingrong himself... What kind of situation would make him break the mirror?"
Both Chu Li and Fang Tianchen were taken aback, but Fang Tianyun blurted out: "Of course it's because I don't want to see my own face! For example, if I am disfigured, I definitely don't want to see a mirror in the room."
"That's right!" Tang Xi said immediately, "That Yang Qingrong, I don't want to see the face belonging to 'Yang Qingrong' in the mirror. The two sides of the mirror are a very dangerous technique. It's okay to use it on myself like I do, because I have my own. Consciousness, the little soul left in the mirror is not enough to affect me, but that person used it on the puppet, which is equivalent to injecting a new consciousness into the puppet, even if it was weak at the beginning, the existence of 'Yang Qingrong' It has been more than a year, enough that consciousness has gradually matured, and the idea of resisting independence has arisen. After all, the desire for freedom is the instinct of any life."
Fang Tianyun nodded as she listened, and then continued following her train of thought: "In this way, in the end Yang Qingrong shattered the mirror that controlled him because of his longing for freedom, but when the mirror shattered, the remnant soul on him also disappeared. And For the girl who was seen in Case 129, framing Xixi was probably just incidental, her most important purpose was to clean up the aftermath."
"With Yang Qingrong's identity, disappearance is more troublesome than death." Chu Li said indifferently, "That person hopes to make a conclusion about Yang Qingrong's death. By the way, although a video cannot prove that Xiaoxi is the murderer, since she is suspected, To avoid suspicion, she can be temporarily excluded from the police team. Maybe even I will be forced to avoid suspicion.”
In fact, he saw that he was still in charge of this case, partly because of the acquiescence of Fang Tianchen sent from above, and partly because of Bureau Tan's strong protection. And once the case runs aground, even Bureau Tan will be held responsible, which shows that Bureau Tan trusts Chu Li.
"Then, why did the corpse suddenly turn into a doll? It's invalid?" Fang Tianchen said.
"I think I can't hold it anymore." Tang Xi said, "Or he can't use it... Hehe, how could such a dangerous thing not have a backlash? The moment Yang Qingrong smashed the mirror, the person on the other side had to vomit at least a few words. Mouth blood, it’s good to let someone disguise the corpse. In addition, the identity of Yuchi’s ashes has been found out, and there is no point in continuing to disguise the corpse, so it’s better to save some effort.”
"Catch him before he recovers," Chu Li said.
"He's in Jiangnan City," Tang Xi said.
"Are you sure?" Chu Li said excitedly.
"I'm sure, even I can't do remote control. He must be in Jiangnan City, and the distance won't be too far." Tang Xi took it for granted.
"Give me a piece of the fragment." Fang Tianchen picked up the fragment on the table and said, "Anyway, I have looked at this mirror before, so let me keep it. Take it back and let Old Wen test the difference between the composition and the ordinary mirror."
"Hope is not something produced by energy." Tang Xi said to himself.
At that time in the mountain hut, she was also careless, thinking that the other party just used the mirror as a communication tool, and didn't think deeply.
The two sides of the mirror, this technique was mentioned by her master when she was very young.
What else did the master say because she was too young to remember, but there is one sentence that is firmly engraved in the bottom of my heart:
Master said, this is a technique that must not be used on dead objects.
This is taboo.
Those who break the taboo will not end well.
Perhaps it was because the master's tone was too serious, almost cold, which left a shadow in her heart, so that she turned a blind eye to this technique after searching through the sect's collection.
Of course, with her present ability, as long as she understands the principle, she can copy it even if she hasn't learned it.
"Okay, you go back to sleep, you have class tomorrow." Chu Li left a sentence and ran out, obviously having a new idea.
"That..." A little fat man at the door of the meeting room poked his head, "I'm Xiao Zhao from the Chen family's private kitchen opposite, can I... come in and collect the dishes?"
"Uh, come in, come in." Tang Xi smiled awkwardly.
So the group split up.
When Fang Tianchen went back to the headquarters, Fang Tianyun accompanied Su Wanyi to dissect the black dog's body. Yan Shifei led others to busy watch the surveillance with Tu Detective, while Chu Li locked himself in the office alone and only kept the little dog Liu and a few team members who worked overtime went to Tutu to help.
The entire serious crime team was brightly lit and working in full swing.
Tang Xi wrapped herself in a down jacket and walked out of the city bureau alone.
It's already dark, but... 8:30 in the evening, shouldn't it be too late? At least not a few young people sleep at this point.
Thinking, she made a call while walking along the road.
After two rings, the call was connected, neither hasty nor slow, and the details showed the upbringing of a person.
"Pei Qingzhi, what do you want from me?" Tang Xi asked directly.
"Are you done?" Pei Qingzhi's voice with a smile was warm in the early winter night.
"Well, I can't help you later." Tang Xi said frankly.
Going home to sleep and going to class tomorrow is one thing, but it is really useless for her to stay in the Municipal Bureau. What can she do now? The work of graphic investigation is the most boring and tedious work, and it also requires the most long-term concentration. Let her do it, and Xiao Liu may not be efficient. It's better to recharge your batteries and prepare to deal with the mastermind behind the scenes.
"I just want to tell you that the model of the first phase of Qingxixia Villa has been made, do you want to see it?" Pei Qingzhi asked.
"So fast?" Tang Xi's eyes lit up.
"I just made three models, and I think the effect is good." Pei Qingzhi said.
"So you don't want me to watch it, you want Yun Qi to watch it." Tang Xi laughed.
"With the most professional guidance, who wouldn't want it?" Pei Qingzhi replied.
His purpose was clear, and he spoke frankly, but he was not annoying, so Tang Xi agreed and made an appointment to go to Pei's Building on Saturday morning.
Yun Qi also wanted to see it.
They chatted a few more words, until after walking a long distance, a gorgeous red sports car passed by, making a loud roar, which almost covered the voice on the phone.
Tang Xi shook her head, the expression in her eyes was not envy but sympathy - driving a supercar in an urban area with a speed limit of 40 yards, wouldn't this car cry? It should really be sympathetic that it has a sb owner.
"Haven't you come home yet?" Pei Qingzhi at the other end obviously heard it too.
"On the way." Tang Xi said.
She didn't see an empty taxi passing by along the way, and she didn't want to use the city's sky eye system to shrink the land into an inch. After all, she didn't rush home like this. It's okay to take a walk to digest food, and then use the mobile app to call a taxi after hanging up the phone. .
"Then, be careful, see you on Saturday." Pei Qingzhi quickly thought of the reason and quickly ended the topic.
"See you on Saturday." Tang Xi hung up the phone, in a good mood, and sighed a few more times.
Chu Li's steel straight man can't find a girlfriend, but Pei Qingzhi is so caring and considerate, why doesn't he have a girlfriend
On the empty street, Yun Qi silently appeared by her side.
"How about it, do you want to go and see it too?" Tang Xi was not surprised.
"You have nothing else to ask me?" Yun Qi said.
"If you can say something, you will naturally tell me. If you don't want to say it, it's useless to force you." Tang Xi shrugged.
Yun Qi looks as gentle and elegant as jade, but is there anyone who knows better than her how stubborn his temper is
What he didn't want to say, he couldn't ask no matter what, she had already learned to give up.
"The woman I let go at the funeral home last time." Yun Qi said suddenly.
"Huh?" Tang Xi was taken aback for a moment before he remembered what he was talking about, and his expression gradually became serious.
"At that moment, what I saw was indeed your face, so my reaction was slow." Yun Qi said.
"My face, woman." Tang Xi stroked her chin.
"It should be the same one as Yang Qingrong's." Yun Qi added.
Tang Xi's face can only be used for three seconds, so it can't be a man.
"On the barren mountain, we found traces of a woman." Tang Xi kept walking, and said as he walked, "That Ah Qiang is nothing, he just wants to revive Anna, but he is just a pawn being used , may be thrown out at any time. That woman is behind the scenes."
"It's impossible to be alone." Yun Qi said.
"I know." Tang Xi paused, then suddenly remembered, picked up the phone and dialed back again.
"Xiaoxi?" Pei Qingzhi was surprised.
"Pei Qingzhi, does your business have perfume?" Tang Xi asked directly.
"I don't have any at home." Pei Qingzhi was stunned for a moment before saying, "Do you want perfume?"
"No." Tang Xi explained, "I want to know where in Jiangnan City has the most, the most complete and the most high-end perfumes."
"That's it." Pei Qingzhi thought for a while, "The Pei family is not involved in the field of perfumery, but if you need it, I remember that the Xia family has this business, and you know Mr. Xia well? Need my help? Are you in touch?"
"No, thank you." Tang Xi hung up the phone and immediately called Xia Qing again.
After listening to her request, although Xia Qing was puzzled, she still said: "There is a special counter on the seventh floor of Jiangnan Building called Pinxiang Pavilion, which belongs to Xia's family. It has all kinds of perfumes made by our perfumers, and there are also perfumes from world brands. Perfume consignment, purchasing agent, if Miss Tang needs it, just let Xiao Shuang take you there. My uncle won’t accompany you to the girl’s place.”
"Thank you, Mr. Xia." Tang Xi got the answer, as if a boulder had been removed from her heart, she squeezed the phone and let out a cold snort, "I originally wanted to let it go first, but... since I have to hit the muzzle of the gun myself , don’t blame me for dragging you out first and crushing you to death.”
Su Huang said that that kind of fragrance is very unique, the best... is that kind of out-of-print, out-of-print perfume that is extremely expensive. For that kind of thing, the merchant who sells it will definitely record the customer information.
