When A Snail Falls in Love

The sound of footsteps approached, and then the familiar black coat and the light smell of tobacco... When he saw him, Xu Xu calmed down suddenly. The messy emotions in the brain, like the fog in the sun, quickly dissipated.

——What did she just do to Yao Meng? Even vented emotions to others.

She stared at Ji Bai's leather shoes: "I'm sorry, I will apologize to her."

Ji Bai: "Well. What else?"

Xu Xu stunned, clenching his hands with his hands on his knees. Of course, this detail didn't escape Ji Bai's eyes. He made a ruthless choice: "Ye Zixi's underground love, why don't you say it at the scene?"

Xu Xu shook his heart slightly and replied: "I didn't find it. Do you think I will hide it on purpose?"

Ji Baiju stared at her condescendingly: "You did not find it. Because you don't believe that she will have an underground relationship, so you ignore the obvious details?"

Xu Xu remained silent for a moment and replied: "I'm sorry, this kind of thing won't happen again."

In fact, when Ji Bai said the conclusion of "underground love" at the scene, she had realized her omission, but did not think deeply. Now that Ji Bai's point is broken, she realized that it was emotion that affected her judgment.

When she said this, she lowered her head. Looking down from Ji Bai's perspective, the girl's slender shoulders shrunk slightly and her head was buried low. The soft, short hair was attached to the forehead, and the slender white face contour and thin neck were vaguely visible. Not like a woman, but like a thin and stubborn teenager.

She saw the murder scene for the first time today, and the deceased was still a friend. Ji Bai is actually very satisfied with her performance.

But satisfaction is one thing, and education is another.

It's just... originally Ji Bai wanted to train a few more words, and watching her languish, she suddenly lost her mood to continue.

He didn't speak, Xu Xu thought it was over, and was thinking of leaving, blinking, Ji Bai crouched down.

Her dark eyes were flush with her, staring at her thoughtfully.

The faces of the two were close at hand, Xu Xu stunned-looking at the tall Ji Bai, squatting in front of him so quietly, it felt really... somehow.

For a moment, Ji Bai looked at her wet red eyes and opened her mouth: "Don't take the example, don't cry."

Xu Xu: "..."

In fact, she didn't hold back at first, but she quickly controlled. It's just that after tearing, my eyes are still red.

After a brief silence, she frowned and turned her head away from Ji Bai's eyes: "I haven't cried long ago."

Ji Bai looked at her embarrassed look, smiled, just remembered, but his eyes fell unconsciously.

She even had white and thin skin on her neck, with faint blood vessels visible. Maybe it was because of embarrassment, the small face was already red, all the way to the earlobe and the root of the neck... He had never seen a person's skin, so thin and fragile, it seemed to break when touched.

Because Xu had been squatting and didn't move, Xu Xu noticed it and turned his head back: "Why do you look at me?"

Ji Bai glanced at her, calm and calm: "What do you say?" Stand up and go away.

Xu Xu thought about it-he should be examining it. So he got up, followed him, and returned to the office.

As soon as he entered the room, Ji Bai felt that the atmosphere was a little wrong. Zhao Han squeezed his eyebrows, and several policemen flashed their eyes. He turned his eyes to see Yao Meng sitting in the position, staring at the screen while typing, but his eyes were red.

Ji Bai didn't care and went straight to his house. After a while, I heard Xu Xu's soft and soft voice: "Yao Meng, are you free, we..."

***

Ye Zixiao was sent home by the police car. During the day, the Ye Family Mansion was sunny and silent. As soon as he lay in the room for a while, the door was pushed open.

It was father Ye Lanyuan. He glanced at the gray-faced son, smiled, and sat down by the bed: "Don't go to the company during the day? Why do you hide here?"

Ye Zixiao sat up: "Dad... Zi Xi is dead."

Ye Lanyuan's expression stiffened in his face instantly.

Ye Zixiao took a deep breath: "She was murdered by someone. Maybe it was the last time the blade accomplice..." When it came to the back, his voice was a little choked.

Ye Lanyuan is sixty-five years old this year, but his face is maintained in his early fifties. But at this moment, perhaps because the expression was too hard to control, every wrinkle of the old man seemed to be shaking.

He did not speak to Ye Zixiao, nor did he ask anything. He stood up and walked out of the room slowly and step by step. From Ye Zixiao's vision, he only saw his trembling back, slower and older than ever before.

Soon, the police called Ye Zhai, which was received by Ye Lanyuan. Tonight, he did not go downstairs to eat.

When Ye Zixiao walked to the restaurant, everyone else was there.

Despite changing clothes in the bath, his face looked pale. The third sister Ye Qiao glanced at him and asked, "How about Zi Xi? Didn't come with you?"

Ye Zixiao did not answer immediately, but walked to his position and sat down. Everyone got used to his temper, and didn't care. When he just moved his chopsticks, he heard him say, "Zi Xi is dead."

As soon as the words fell, everyone stopped chopsticks and turned to look at him.

The restaurant is quiet and scary. Only Ye Zixiao picked up the chopsticks and began to eat rice.

The first to speak is the eldest brother Ye Ziqiang: "Fourth, what are you kidding?"

Ye Zixiao “cracked” and fell chopsticks: “I’m kidding? Are you happy now? Suspected that Zi Xi came back to grab family property, shit! Now she is dead, you are at ease!”

Ye Ziqiang's face flushed instantly: "You, you..."

"Zi Xiao!" Ye Qiao stopped him, "What the **** are you talking about? What happened to Zi Xi?"

Ye Zixiao glanced coldly at her: "Sister Sister, how many trips have you made to Zi Xi in business in recent years? Don't you think the same as your elder brother? Now she's dead, guilty?"

Ye Qiao's face changed slightly, and she didn't say anything.

The room was quiet again, and the atmosphere was more tense than before.

Ye Zixiao took a deep breath, calmed down, and reopened: "Zi Xi was murdered last night."

He didn't want to mention the text message, let alone Ye Zixi's death, and only said: "I was called by the police to ask questions, the murderer should be related to the last blade offender. The police are investigating."

Everyone's face changed and changed, and no one said anything.

After a while, the three brother-in-law Zhang Shiyong asked in a deep voice: "Have you caught the murderer?" The voice was a little colder: "What do the police do?"

Zi Xiao has always respected this brother-in-law and shook his head: "Not yet. Not the last one. That person has already been caught. This time it should be his associate. Poultry/beast!"

Everyone didn't speak anymore, and a meal was dull and heavy. After a while, the second sister Ye Jin, who had been silent, put down her chopsticks: "I'm full." Her husband Wu Xie looked at the basically unmoving meal and hugged her shoulders: "You eat too little." Ye Jin shook his head, got up and walked to Ye Zixiao, put his hand on his shoulder, her eyes were already red.

This gentle and introverted second sister usually doesn't talk much, but besides Ye Zixi, Zi Xiao has the best relationship with her. Hold her hand: "Second sister..."

***

When the Ye family was immersed in the hazy atmosphere, the news of Ye Zixi's death gradually spread. The police has suspended all vacations and investigates the case day and night. Xu Xu directly sent a text message to Xu Jun, saying that he was busy recently, and it didn't matter if he didn't matter. Xu Jun got used to it and returned a "good", but did not come to harass her.

After a day and night tracing, at noon that day, the Interpol team held a meeting.

The first to report is the old Wu. He took another criminal policeman and Yao Meng to investigate Ye Zixi's daily relationship.

"We asked relatives, friends and company colleagues of the deceased in Lin City. The deceased was very popular and did not have too much conflict with others. And everyone said she was single and no one heard that she had a boyfriend recently."

This result disappointed everyone.

At this time Yao Meng added: "We have applied for authorization and are investigating the deceased's personal data, including mail records, communication records, consumption records, etc. If the mysterious lovers really exist, there can be no traces."

Ji Bai nodded, Xu Xufei quickly made minutes.

Because Ye Zixi is a celebrity in the business world, Da Hu took Zhao Han to investigate the economic field.

Da Hu's expression solemnly reported: "The deceased was responsible for the group's overseas investment during his lifetime. His performance was in good condition, and there were some investment losses, but the overall situation was not abnormal..."

Ji Bai interrupted him: "What kind of investment failure?"

Mr. Hu responded: "There are real estate and export trade losses. The biggest investment loss last year was about US$100 million. The partner is a European Chinese, who was wanted because he was absconding with money... As far as the West Group is concerned, it's all a bit of a bull."

Xu Xu nodded in his ears-it sounded like there was no abnormality for the time being.

At this time, Zhao Han stood up and said: "I found a copy of the Longxi Group's earliest materials." He distributed the photocopy to everyone. Xu Xu reads fast, and soon found signs.

The earliest legal representative of Longxi Group was not Ye Lanyuan, the current chairman of the group, but Ye Lanzhi. She just wanted to ask questions, Ji Bai has already said: "Ye Lanzhi is Ye Zixi's father?"

Zhao Han nodded and explained: "When Ye Zixi was three years old, his father died of illness, and his uncle Ye Lanyuan became a legal person. At that time, the company did not have a shareholding system. It was later listed, and the shares owned by Ye Zixi in adulthood were 3 (percent sign). "

Hearing this, everyone is quite moved-will Ye Zixi's death be related to the dispute over the family's economic interests?

Ji Bai pondered for a moment and looked at Lao Wu: "Did the Ye family prove that they were not present during the incident?"

Old Wu flipped through the transcript in his hand and replied: "The death time inferred by forensic doctors is from 21 o'clock in the evening to 5 o'clock in the morning. This period of time is a bit large, and most people say that they are sleeping at home. , Needs further investigation."

Dahu said: "The text message was distributed at 22:17. According to the forensic report, after a serious chest injury, the surviving life of the deceased cannot exceed 1 hour. Can it be inferred that the time of death of the deceased is between 22:00 and 23:30. Check for the absence certificate at this time?"

Zhao Han immediately retorted: "Will the SMS be sent by the murderer to confuse time?"

"It's unlikely."

"possible."

Two voices sounded simultaneously, Xu Xu and Ji Bai.

Everyone was startled. You have to know that Ji Bai is the authority of the police force. Everyone has witnessed Xu Xu's performance since he joined the office. Unexpectedly, today the teacher and apprentice were in public and had different opinions.

Ji Bai glanced at Xu Xu quite interestingly. Xu Xu didn't look at him at all, with a serious thinking expression.

At this time Yao Meng raised his hand: "I also think it is unlikely that the text message should be sent by the deceased." Then he gave Xu Xu a glance of encouragement beside him. Xu Xu saw her expression and nodded in response.

Two psychology professionals opposed the captain's opinion, which made everyone interested. Ji Bai satisfied everyone's curiosity and named: "Xu Xu, you say it first."

Xu Xu replied: "The text message reveals the relationship between the murderer and the deceased. Since the murderer has a criminal with high IQ and meticulous behavior, he deliberately arranged the scene as a blade to commit the murder, and should not leave such an obvious loophole."

Yao Meng also said: "My opinion is the same. Even if the murderer wants to send a text message, he can send more ambiguous content to achieve the purpose of confusing the time."

After listening to the two, many people nodded in agreement. Then all look to Ji Bai.

Ji Bai smiled, his long black eyebrows raised slightly, his eyes fell on Xu Xu, and he said: "You are talking about an ideal situation. How the murder process happened is still unclear. We can't rule out any accidents. Sexual factors have caused the murderer to send such a text message. Not to mention that there may be a second murderer on the scene."

Everyone nodded frequently, Ji Baihuafeng turned around: "But I agree, focus on checking the Ye family's absence certificate between 22:00 and 23:30. Look at the communication record of Ye Zixi's mobile phone number."

Xu Xu turned over the information in his hand, and the text message at 22:17 was recorded, and the base station code was also displayed.

Ji Bai continued: "This base station code belongs to Lin Anshan. It is confirmed that this message was indeed sent from the location of the villa. According to the record, the mobile phone signal disappeared around 23:00, and we did not find the mobile phone at the scene."

Xu Xu suddenly had a sudden and cheerful feeling-this shows that at least one murderer is in the villa during this period, otherwise the mobile phone will not disappear.

However...Ji Bai actually knew at a glance which area the base station code belongs to. He remembered the distribution of the entire Linshi communication network in his mind?

It seems that she is not working hard enough.

The direction of the key detection in the later period was definitely determined: first, to continue to look for the mysterious lover; second, to focus on investigating the Ye family's absence certificate. Ji Baigang was about to announce the end of the meeting, but his phone rang. After a few words, he hung up the phone and looked at everyone: "Ye Zixiao. He said he remembered someone."

***

Ye Zixiao is not stupid. During these two days, his emotions slowly recovered, and he also recovered: Why did Ye Zixi live alone in the deep mountain villa? And when Ji Bai asked him, he also asked about Ye Zixi's relationship between men and women?

Does Ye Zixi really have a lover?

However, he remembered one thing. That was about two years ago, he broke up with a girlfriend, which is why Xu Xu said, the other party is also a proud daughter of the sky, can not stand his machoism. I was quite frustrated at that time and asked Ye Zixi to drink.

Half drunk and half awake, vaguely remember Ye Zixi, a long skirt leaning on the railing, looking at the starry sky, with a self-deprecating smile in her eyes.

She said at the time, Zi Xiao, you haven't met that person yet. Your current discomfort is not uncomfortable. The real discomfort is to wish to die.

...

Ye Zixiao quickly rushed to the police station, Ji Bai and Xu Xu talked to him together. When repeating Ye Zixi's sentence, he looked at Xu Xu like a ghost, Xu Xu originally stared at him intently, and suddenly he collided with his line of sight, as if a little clear, his head dropped blankly.

However, Ji Bai's low and powerful voice sounded in their ears: "Mr. Ye, are there any other clues? This is tantamount to finding a needle in a haystack."

Ye Zixiao said, I do not know who this person is, but he speculated that it should be the man Ye Zixi met when he was a graduate student in Beijing. Later, she returned to Linshi, and since then has no boyfriend.

After Ye Zixiao left, Ji Bai returned to the office and called in Zhao Han: "I'll go to Beijing and give me the ticket for today. Come back tomorrow." He has made up his mind and used some relationships, if there is really this People, will not miss.

Xiao Zhao nodded: "Who does the assistant take?" Before Ji Bai's business trip, he was the young male policeman who led the team.

Ji Bai glanced at the people outside, Xu Xu buried his head in the position directly opposite the office door, the mouse sliding fast in his hand, was looking at the information of the Yeh Group in ten lines, like a small motor with a wound clockwork.

***

At the airport in the afternoon, Ji Bai sat in the waiting area for a while and saw Xu Xu carrying a travel bag in one hand, another thin arm, carrying a heavy notebook bag, and holding a mobile phone while typing: "No need for you Arrange a friend to pick me up. I'm here... Xu Jun, I'm busy, bye."

Hanging up the phone, she trot all the way to Ji Bai's side. At this time the radio sounded and it was possible to board the plane. Ji Bai took two bags in her hand: "Let's go."

Xu Xu's hands became empty, while Ji Bai carried three bags of two people in one hand, and looked very relaxed, standing in the crowd, tall and handsome.

It's very strict in the bureau, and there is demeanor when going out-this Master is still very good.
