Chapter 194 - The 21th Cannon Fodder -
Tao Mi's words brought the past back to Lin Shen's mind.
Originally, it was common for people like them to drive on the road at the age of sixteen or seventeen, but because of the rules of the elders in the family, they were not given car keys without a notebook, so none of them touched a car before they reached adulthood.
That year, Su Yue just got the notebook, and although he was older than Su Yue at that time, the notebook was not sent out as early as Su Yue.
The two of them are the oldest among the children in the compound. Su Yue just got the book and naturally wanted to take the little friends to have fun. It was the first time driving, and Su Yue unfortunately ran a red light.
Lin Shen is not clear about the final result. It was probably because Grandpa Su taught her a lesson, and then told her not to drive on the road for two months. She practiced silently in the field alone. He couldn't remember whether Su Yue obeyed or not. up.
Originally, he couldn't remember such a trivial matter at all, but now after Tao Mi said this, the past came back to his mind very clearly.
At that time, Su Yue was flamboyant, and now Taomi is also flamboyant, but at the same time she is also restrained. If her flamboyance at that time came from her ignorance and ignorance, and she belonged to the kind of innocent little girl, then her flamboyance now comes from She comes from her own self-confidence, she went out to the Su family, she already has the capital of self-confidence.
In a family like theirs, except for those who left the family to start their own business, there is nothing to be proud of in inheriting the property. No matter how big your business is, it is based on the already powerful family So no matter how much you do, it’s just a step up.
Even he looks like this.
Now Su Yue has made her own choice and went to a job that the Su family has never dabbled in. In such a job, without the help of the Su family, she is still at home.
"Miss Su, but Lin Shen really likes you. You liked him so much before, can't you consider accepting him again now?" I don't understand what she is begging for?
"First, I didn't see that Lin Shen liked me. Second, even if Lin Shen liked me, I believe that Ms. Wen must have heard the phrase "one time is unfaithful and a hundred times is useless". When I found you, should I always be by his side in the future? Or let him be by my side all the time? Do you think this is suitable? "
For this world, she no longer has the attitude that she can accomplish it. She doesn't like Lin Shen, so naturally she can't let him have that kind of attitude towards her. If she wants Lin Shen to fall in love with her, she will She couldn't do it if she wanted to show real affection to Lin Shen.
Lin Shen clenched his palms into fists, "One time of infidelity is not used a hundred times", everyone knows what this sentence means, but not everyone can do it, but Tao Mi said it like this now, what she said Show no mercy.
That's right, she didn't have feelings for him in the first place, so why should she show mercy?
"If Ms. Wen has nothing else to do, I'll leave first. I wish you and Lin Shen happiness." Tao Mi turned around, pretending to see Lin Shen just now, and said with a smile, "Don't worry, I'm real. I don't have any feelings for you, and you don't have to use this method to test me."
"I didn't." Realizing the meaning of Tao Mi's words, Lin Shen quickly denied that he didn't even know that Wen Xiaoxue was here, he just came out to find her, not planned with Wen Xiaoxue in advance.
Lin Shen wanted to explain to Taomi, but now he couldn't say anything, he could only look at Taomi like this, he wanted to remember today, but just thinking of the sentence "one time to be unfaithful a hundred times" makes him feel uncomfortable , even more afraid to approach.
"It doesn't matter, I will tell my parents about our marriage contract. For the sake of our childhood sweethearts growing up together, we will still be friends when we meet in the future." Taomi smiled again and passed Lin Lin mercilessly. Shen got into the car.
The car rose out of the dust, and Lin Shen stood there without moving.
Wen Xiaoxue walked slowly to Lin Shen's side, put his hand on his frowning brows, "I just want to help you, there is really no other meaning."
Lin Shen brushed off Wen Xiaoxue's arm, took two steps back, looked at Wen Xiaoxue fixedly, and said after a while, "Let's break up."
"Okay!" Wen Xiaoxue didn't ask why, as if she had expected it a long time ago, and there was a hint of ease in her expression that she had confirmed the answer.
Maybe when his fiancée came back, she should be able to think that this ending will come back sooner or later, it's just a matter of time. Now that two months have passed, Lin Shen said at this time that it has exceeded her expectations.
After all, compared with such a woman, she is nothing.
Lin Shen took a deep look at Wen Xiaoxue again, making sure she was real, said "goodbye" and turned to leave. Wen Xiaoxue watched Lin Shen's back gradually drifting away, as if she was about to disappear , out of her life.
Quickly walked a few steps, and hugged Lin Shen's waist from behind, "It will be fine in a while, and I will let you go in a while."
Wen Xiaoxue's voice was already choked up, and the next second Lin Shen felt a burst of heat on his shoulders, and he knew she was crying.
The sun was about to set, and the setting sun shone on the two of them, making their shadows longer, but after the sun really set, it was pitch black, and the shadows also merged into the darkness without a trace.
In the past, there were many obstacles in their love. With the title of third party, Wen Xiaoxue did not have enough family background to match the Lin family. They thought that their love could last forever, forever.
But the iron-like facts are in front of them. The love they thought would last forever is just their self-confidence after all.
Just like a shadow, it will be very long under the rays of the setting sun, but once it is dark, it will disappear without a trace.
Quietly, without a trace.
After talking with Lin Shen, Tao Mi left without seeing a man in sportswear behind a tree on the other side with a bright smile, like a child who has been given candy , his expression was full of satisfaction.
He also turned and left after the car disappeared.
"Are you sure you don't want to attack Lin Shen? If you don't succeed in the mission, you will punish the world. Do you like to accept punishment so much?" Mimi's voice trembled a little. It is true that she is going to punish the world. He was a little scared.
The last punishment world was an apocalypse. Although those zombies would not be able to upgrade, he had to face many zombies during the whole process of researching the vaccine. Their bodies were black and blue, their hair was thinning, and they smelled disgusting all over their bodies. The feeling is not that she went to study the vaccine, do you know how much suffering he endured at that time.
Thinking about it now is a bitter tear.
"I don't think I can decide whether to go or not now." Lin Shen's performance today was really beyond her expectations.
The first time she came back from Lin's house, she told Lin Shen that she would tell both parents. At that time, Lin Shen had a look of reluctance. She thought it was just the possessive desire in her heart, but seeing the situation today, she changed a little. The factor of 'possessiveness' was removed.
Now is not the ancient times, Lin Shen is also a man who grew up in the new era. Even if he is a bit machismo, he will definitely not regard his fiancée who is no longer his personal property, but now he is so lucky, he seems to have feelings for her?
Especially what Wen Xiaoxue said, of course she knew that it wasn't the two of them deliberately testing her, so why did Wen Xiaoxue come to her?
Just tell her that Lin Shen likes her and tell her not to break off the engagement?
So what is his purpose in doing this?She didn't believe that Wen Xiaoxue would be so upright as to let go for the happiness of the one she loves. Even if she let go, she would help the man she likes to chase other girls. Anyone with a normal mind would not do this.
And Wen Xiaoxue obviously does not belong to the type of abnormal brain, being able to be the secretary of President Lin, and also related to Xie Li's drug business, no matter how you think about it, Wen Xiaoxue is not the type of abnormal brain .
Those who say that as long as they are in love, their IQ is '0', most of them are students who have not yet left school. in love.
Wen Xiaoxue has graduated and entered the society, and she is still working in a place like Lin's that is not inferior to the battlefield. It is obviously impossible to do it without a little bit of heart.
So now Wen Xiaoxue simply came to tell her these things for Lin Shen's happiness, and she wouldn't believe it even if she died.
It doesn't matter, just take one step at a time, there is no better way now, and she is ready to punish the world, and there is no worse result than punishing the world, she is now fearless.
Tao Mi went to work in the detachment as usual, neither Wen Xiaoxue nor Lin Shen came to look for her, and Lin's mother never called her again, as if she really had nothing to do with the Lin family, and the Su family, Because of the time difference, they don't talk much. They usually leave messages and reply when they see them.
As for the matter of breaking off the engagement, Tao Mi didn't think there was anything important to say, so she told them directly by means of a message. Unexpectedly, she received a call from Su Yi before she woke up the next day.
Su Yi, Su Yue's younger brother, who is two years younger than Su Yue, has already graduated and is working in the Su family. Su's father plans to support him for two years before retiring. Su Yi is not in charge yet, so he is not busy.
One morning when she just woke up, she received a message from Tao Mi, saying that she had broken off her engagement with Lin Shen, and that it was enough for him to tell her parents that she would go home after the holiday, so they should not worry.
How can you not be worried, the fiancé couple who have been together for seven years will be dissolved with just one sentence?Is there no explanation?
There were no problems in the long-distance relationship in the past seven years, but now that I have lived in a city like this, there are problems. What is the reason for this?
Tao Mi just quietly listened to Su Yi's string of doubts, closed her eyes, Su Yi's questions were still in her ears, but she didn't speak, just listened until Su Yi finished all the questions in her heart, She just opened her eyes.
The ceiling of the entrance is snow-white and snow-white, and there are no interesting impurities, as if it is a pure paradise.
"Sister, tell me, why on earth did you break off the engagement with Lin Shen?"
"Why are there so many reasons? If you don't like it, just get in touch with it." Taomi got up and took her phone into the bathroom, "Anyway, now you just need to tell your parents the truth. , and let them stop asking."
"Why? You have been together for seven years, and now you say you want to separate. We don't want to stop you from making any decisions, even if you are concerned?" Su Yi's voice on the other end of the phone was a little hoarse, and she hurried to talk. It will be better if the glass of water moistens the throat, and then he said, "Sister, my parents don't know about it yet, if they know about it, I believe you can understand it without me talking about it, So you talk to me now, so that I can work with you to deal with the policy is not."
Su Yi never thought that Lin Shen had another woman. He has always had a good impression of this big brother who used to play with him when he was young. He remembers it all.
"You also said that we have been together for seven years, but you have seen all these seven years. We have never met a few times, and when we were engaged, how deep did you think we would be? What?" Taomi said every word very clearly, and she was able to handle things like laying the groundwork.
Su Yi on the other end stopped talking, he knew the benefits of marriage between the two families, but there would be no harm if they didn't get married, since they have no feelings, then it's better not to be together.
Feeling Su Yi's thoughts over there, Tao Mi looks at herself in the mirror, Su Yue is very beautiful, with a palm-sized melon-seeded face, the corners of her eyes and brows are full of temptation, and her undressed appearance looks like a wind| With all kinds of emotions, he smiled and said, "And the most important thing is, since Lin Shen already has someone he likes, why should I be with him?"
"what?"
As if expecting such a shout from Su Yi, Tao Mi held the phone away from her ear early on, "Didn't you hear clearly? Lin Shen has someone he likes, and I don't want to join their games , so I choose to come out."
Choose it and be a quiet melon-eating crowd.
"sister!"
"What are you shouting for? If you hear it clearly, tell your parents like that, and I'm going to work like this," Taomi said and hung up the phone.
In Su Yi's ears, her impatience was like running away, because she didn't want her family to know that she was dumped by her fiancé who had dated for seven years, so she could only say that she had no feelings. Under his questioning, he was very 'painful' and told the truth.
Then as a younger brother, he can't just watch his sister being wronged like this, no, he must let Lin Shen know that there is a Su family behind his sister, not the kind of unknown family who can be bullied casually .
He is currently abroad, and he won't be able to go back for a while. He thought about contacting his best friends in China and asked them to investigate the situation at Lin Shen's side first. After he has arranged all these things, he will go back to his sister. Revenge' go.
But these should not be known to his parents, otherwise he would definitely not be allowed to fool around. Although he didn't think it was fooling around, it was somehow not intentional, so he could only cut it first and play later.
Taomi didn't know that Su Yi was already in a hurry to avenge her. His arrival was like the wings of a little butterfly, triggering a series of events that followed.
Tao Mi had just arrived at the detachment, and saw a large bouquet of roses and a box on his seat. She glanced at her colleagues in the office, and she understood why as soon as she entered the gate of the detachment today, as long as it was Everyone who saw her looked at her strangely.
"Oh, I said Su Yue, who gave you this, such a big bouquet of flowers and presents, how much you like it." Chen Peng came over with a look of surprise and said exaggeratedly , It's a pity that he is not an actor, so his acting skills are a bit exaggerated.
Tao Mi smiled, picked up a large bouquet of flowers, looked carefully and stuffed them into Chen Peng's arms, "I ordered this for you, thank you for taking care of me for so long, there are 99 flowers in total, My gratitude to you will last forever."
"Ah!" Chen Peng couldn't even close his mouth. He looked at the people around him. When he caught his gaze, those people looked down at the documents in their hands tacitly, but they couldn't help it from the corner of their eyes. Take a peek here.
"It's not Su Yue, it's not suitable for you." He is not highly educated, but even if he is not, he knows that 99 red roses cannot be given away casually.
"Oh, don't you know my feelings for you? Accept it." Tao Mi blinked at Chen Peng, her voice was not low, there were already many people in the room, her words As soon as he said it, everyone couldn't help being stunned.
What does it mean? ? ?
Their brains are too small for them to think.
Of course they knew that Taomi hadn't ordered this flower. Could it be that Taomi was really interested in Chen Peng, so they made such a smooth move.
It has been almost two months since Taomi came to the detachment. Every time she goes out to work, she is with Chen Peng.
That peach honey's emotional intelligence is too high, not only rejected the man who confessed to her, but also successfully confessed to Xiao Chen, killing two birds with one stone.
After figuring this out, everyone looked at Taomi differently for a while.
Good-looking, decent IQ, and such a high EQ, Xiao Chen is really lucky to pick up such a treasure.
But it is Xiao Chen who is considered lucky by everyone at this time, who can understand the pain in his heart now.
Others don't know, how could he not know that this bouquet of roses was put here by Liang Siyuan early in the morning, and he also volunteered to help him catch the peach honey, but now it has become like this, let him Riding a tiger is hard to get off.
Of course, the most important thing is that he has a girlfriend, and they are all colleagues in the detachment. Although the people's police are all on duty, they are also fond of gossip. After hours everyone will know.
At that time, it would be a trivial matter if the promise he said was not fulfilled. If the girlfriend he managed to catch ran away, who would he cry to?
Thinking of Chen Peng stuffing the flower back into Taomi's hands, "That Su Yue, I really can't have this, the relationship between you and me is just a friendship, there is really no other meaning, if I did it before What made you misunderstood, I hope you can forgive me, I’m just acquainted, and I don’t know anyone, if you’re new here, let me help, it’s okay, isn’t it?”
Taomi just said that she ordered it, so he can only continue to talk about it. When he was in school, he never passed the exam. Now getting along with such a big set does not hurt Taomi, and he can say It is really not easy to understand the words.
"I know. I study psychology. I can still understand you, so I don't have any misunderstandings." Tao Mi tilted her head and sent the words in Chen Peng's hands again, "But I I'm new here, it's your job to help me, so it's my job to thank you, if I take your help for granted, then how low my EQ will be."
"I was just joking with you just now. Just take this and take it as my thank you. Borrow flowers to offer Buddha."
After Taomi said that, if he continued to decline, he would really have a low EQ, but he would feel bad no matter how much he wanted a woman's roses.
Forget it, let's return it to Liang Siyuan, he doesn't dare to hold it so openly, if bad rumors come over in the future, wouldn't it be clear that he would jump into the Yellow River to clean it up.
After a busy morning, Taomi ate directly in the cafeteria of the detachment at noon, but just as she sat down, a hand dragged her plate away and replaced it with a bouquet of roses, Taomi only glanced at it , I knew it was the one she gave Chen Peng in the morning.
Glancing at Liang Siyuan who was standing in front of him with his mouth pouting silently, he twitched the corners of his mouth, "I said why did Xiao Chen reject me, so it was because of you."
"That's right, it's because of me." That guy said in the morning that he would help him, and asked him to wait for news quietly in the office. Honey confessed to Chen Peng, and also sent roses.
There is a video in the circle of friends, he saw it, it was the bunch he gave, at that time he secretly scolded Chen Peng as a man with no morals, agreed to help him, but ended up going by himself, the man who robbed his brother, he still Is there benevolence, righteousness and morality?
Just as he was about to ask Chen Peng out to scold him, Chen Peng came directly to his office and returned the flowers to him, which is considered a bit of a conscience, if he accepted the peach honey so smoothly, he would definitely not recognize him as a brother.
"Then what are you doing in front of me now?" Taomi said with a blank expression on her face, but when she listened carefully to her voice, there was a strong sense of loss, "Is it to show how loving you are and how redundant I am?"
"What?"
A simple sentence not only stunned Liang Siyuan, but also stunned all the people in the cafeteria. Originally, Liang Siyuan swaggered here with flowers, making those who had not heard what happened in the morning confused I don't understand, and those who knew what happened in the morning are also waiting to watch the show.
But no one expected that things would suddenly turn around like this.
It was because of Liang Siyuan that Chen Peng rejected Taomi, and Liang Siyuan also admitted that what they thought just now was that they were brothers, and brothers and wives should not be bullied, why now it has come to Taomi's mouth that they are...then kind of relationship.
The most important thing is that Liang Siyuan didn't deny it, didn't deny it, ten seconds had passed, Liang Siyuan still didn't deny it...
15 seconds have passed, Liang Siyuan still hasn't denied it...
20 seconds...
21 seconds...
22 seconds...
24 seconds...
Liang Siyuan, Liang Siyuan, he left.
Look at his back, is it the default?
For a moment, everyone was talking about it. The cafeteria, which was already very noisy, was quiet like never before, but now it has become louder than ever, with endless discussions.
Taomi was not affected at all, she grabbed the dinner plate that Liang Siyuan had just taken away, enjoying the delicious food.
She doesn't care about any messy things. This is a farce, so let's end it in the form of farce. As for the last sentence Liang Siyuan and her said, why should she care about it.
"Come to the rooftop in a while, I'll wait for you."
This discussion did not last long at all, because another murder happened.
In a residential building, the dog of a resident’s family has suddenly become crazy these few days, barking non-stop. It’s not spring, nor is it the time of estrus. At the beginning, the family didn’t care. , as if the dog was bored, who knew that one day the dog would bark wildly at the door of a house.
The family was afraid of complaining, so they took the dog away, but for several days, the dog went away, and only then did the family who raised the dog realize that something was wrong.
"You are so bold, you just rush to peek at other people's rooms, so you are not afraid of being accused of peeping?" Hearing the words of the person sitting opposite, Gao Ming said jokingly.
I saw the young man on the opposite side grinning, "I didn't think so much at the time. I said that there was a young couple living in that house. I haven't seen it for half a year. I thought they must have gone out. In fact, I just I want to see what is in their room. You also know that dogs have the most sensitive noses. They can smell things that we can't. You add a little merit, don't you?"
He didn't expect that it didn't matter, it really made him see something, a man and a woman, hanged in the living room, and the body had already started to rot, otherwise how could the dog ask the smell.
"Comrade police, you don't know that the curtains were drawn. If I hadn't learned how to open the locks, I would not be able to pry the windows open. You don't know that I opened the curtains and saw the scene. It wasn’t that I was holding the window frame tightly, I fell down, you can’t help but know that the two couples were killed, and you still want to investigate the cause of my death, you say that I am helping you police comrades to handle the case Bar."
"That's not necessarily true. If you die, we will definitely investigate the cause of death. Maybe we will find out. So even if you are dead, it is still valuable." Gao Ming smiled and closed the book, "Hehe Just kidding, we understand the preliminary things, don't leave S city during this period, we will notify you in time when it comes."
When Taomi and the others arrived, as soon as they opened the door, there was that disgusting smell. There were two corpses hanging in the middle of the living room, a man and a woman.
Of course, the current building does not provide them with a place to hang themselves, so a beam is hung in the upper room of the living room, and two ropes are tied to it, and the two people hang like this.
They were all dressed in formal attire, the man in a black tuxedo suit and the woman in a fine white evening dress.
But after hanging for a long time, dust has fallen on their bodies, not only on them, but almost all places in the house are covered with dust. It seems that they have been dead for some years.
The mouths of the two of them were open, but their tongues did not come out, so it is certain that these two people did not hang themselves, otherwise their tongues would definitely come out, but the specific cause of death still needs the results of the forensic autopsy just work.
The furnishings in the house are as usual, the sofa, TV, coffee table, and cabinets, everything in the restaurant is normal, and there are even unused ingredients in the refrigerator, but because the refrigerator has not been powered on for a long time, most of the things in it are It's broken.
"Professor Liang, what do you think?" Just as everyone was observing the scene, Chen Peng's voice suddenly came.
Liang Siyuan looked around, "The two deceased were found here. Due to their shape, this should be the first crime scene. There was dust on all the furniture here, but it didn't look like it was there. I just looked at the traces of the fight, and there was no obvious trauma on the body of the deceased, so it is very likely that an acquaintance committed the crime, and Chen Qibuyi attacked from behind."
"It can be lifeless to kill one person by an acquaintance, but it is obviously impossible to kill two people, so I think the murderer must have done something to them in advance, and since the deceased was wearing formal clothes, it is very likely I went to see the banquet and came back, since there are the most drinks at the banquet, and wine is the best thing to drink, but all this is just my guess, and the specifics still have to wait for the autopsy results of the forensic doctor."
Looking at the dust situation in the house now, it has been more than two months, but the exact time is still unclear, and there is no autopsy on the corpse. There is no specific time, and even the monitoring cannot be adjusted, so in Before the autopsy report came out, they could only investigate the identities of the two deceased, as well as their relatives and friends.
"Junior Sister Yueyue, is there anything I can help you with?" Liang Siyuan approached Taomi after making a preliminary judgment, and said with a smile on his face.
It has been two days since the last time. In the past two days, Liang Siyuan seemed to have never happened at all. He went to Taomi's side every day, but what he did was much bolder than before, as if he wanted to To let everyone know the same about their relationship.
"Could you change your name?" Junior Sister and Junior Sister called, always giving her the illusion that they were familiar.
In fact, the School of Criminal Psychology has tens of thousands of students, and Liang Siyuan's junior sister has five thousand if not eight thousand. She feels awkward talking about her alone now.
However, Liang Siyuan didn't care about Tao Mi's awkwardness and said with a smile, "Oh, it doesn't mean that we have a good relationship. You see in other TV dramas, senior brothers and sisters are the most suitable existences. We will definitely become the best in the future." well-matched existence."
Tao Mi rolled her eyes, turned and walked away not to look at Liang Siyuan, Liang Siyuan also smiled and went to look for clues.
Since the incident last time, Chen Peng has never been more than ten meters away from Taomi, and even in the office, they have changed from their original opposite table to the current one leaning against the east wall. western wall.
So this time, Taomi followed Lao Hong to question the family members. Lao Hong is an old criminal policeman in his 40s. He is very efficient and experienced in his work. I can't joke anymore, and there are still some Internet slang that he doesn't understand very well.
He took two old couples to the autopsy room, took them to confirm that the deceased was their son and daughter, and took them outside. The two couples interrogated separately. Tao Mi and Lao Hong were in charge of the parents of the deceased, Fu Zhi. .
Looking at the two people with tears in their eyes, Tao Mi handed over the tissue. Not everyone can bear the pain of losing a child in his later years.
"Comrade police, you must help us find the murderer of my son. My son is still so young. He and Wenwen just got married. Who is so cruel and killed two innocent children? Who is it? So vicious?" Fu's mother was crying so hard that she finally fell into Fu's father's arms.
Fu's father also had tears in the corners of his eyes as he hugged his wife tightly.
White-haired people send black-haired people, the pain of life.
Tao Mi glanced at Lao Hong. In the current situation, it is obviously not suitable to ask so intensely. Lao Hong is also a little embarrassed. It will take some time to wait for the autopsy to come out. Trouble.
"Well, we will definitely find the murderer, not only to help you but also to give justice to the deceased, you two calm down first, we will have someone come over to ask you later, please both of you can Let's cooperate, after all, the results of the autopsy haven't come out yet, so we can only get clues from you."
After saying that, Lao Hong got up and left, signaling Taomi to come here to comfort the two old people. After Taomi nodded, Lao Hong left. All Taomi can do now is to pass tissues. Any words of consolation are in vain.
About half an hour later, Father Fu calmed down, "Comrade police, I think I can accept your questions now."
"Okay, I'll get you a glass of water, let's talk slowly."
Tao Mi came over with Lao Hong with two glasses of water, ready to take notes.
