When Ran Yunshang heard Mu Yunmeng's words, she quickly jumped up from her stool, looked at Mu Yunmeng expectantly, and said excitedly.
When Mu Yunmeng heard Ran Yunshang's words, his expression suddenly changed. With a helpless expression that Xi Honglei had never seen before, Mu Yunmeng looked at Ran Yunshang, and without even thinking, he refused: "A girl's home.
, don’t go to that kind of place.”
"Brother..." Ran Yunshang walked up to Mu Yunmeng, carefully tugged on his sleeve, and whispered: "I promise not to run around, talk nonsense, expose my identity, and cause you no trouble. Take me there.
OK?"
Ran Yunshang's attitude towards Mu Yunmeng once again aroused Xi Honglei's curiosity. Standing aside and watching the actions of the two brothers and sisters, Xi Honglei couldn't help but feel worried. The identity gap between the two was too big. If Mu
Yunmeng has always been so unpopular, so if Ran Yunshang approaches Mu Yunmeng without thinking, one day she will be dragged into the water. I wonder what Mu Yunmeng is thinking?
"I will be responsible for keeping an eye on the princess, don't worry." Xi Honglei's sudden words made Ran Yunshang happy and Mu Yunmeng frowned.
Unable to resist Ran Yunshang's persistence, Mu Yunmeng had no choice but to lead the two of them in the direction of Yizhuang. After arriving at the place, Xi Honglei looked at the few simple houses beside the sparsely populated grove and smiled slightly.
, secretly jokingly said, it still feels a bit like something from a ghost movie.
Entering a room with the door open, Mu Yunmeng stretched out his hand to block Ran Yunshang and Xi Honglei from the door. He walked in alone and called the man who was lying on a wooden board and sleeping soundly.
Got up.
"Who are you?" The person who was woken up sat up unhappily, looked at Mu Yunmeng sleepily, and asked loudly, "Is something wrong?"
"The newly appointed Jing Zhaoyin." Mu Yunmeng said as he showed his token. "I want to take a look at the corpses of the recent murder cases."
As soon as the man heard Mu Yunmeng's identity, he quickly woke up, put on a smile on his face, and led Mu Yunmeng to the corner of the room. Then he pointed to one of the coffins and said, "This is
It only took two days for the body from the recent case to be delivered. The rest are in the next room!"
Mu Yunmeng frowned and slowly opened the coffin lid, and a foul smell immediately hit him.
"The corpse stains are already like this..." Xi Honglei muttered to himself, causing Mu Yunmeng to be stunned. He quickly closed the coffin, turned around with sharp eyes, and looked at the man who had run in unknowingly.
Xi Honglei and Ran Yunshang.
Xi Honglei received Mu Yunmeng's cold gaze, smiled awkwardly, tugged on the corner of Ran Yunshang's clothes, and motioned for her to go out with him. After seeing Mu Yunmeng's gloomy expression, Ran Yunshang also looked stupid.
He smiled, not daring to say anything, and automatically and consciously left the room with Xi Honglei.
Mu Yunmeng stared at Xi Honglei's leaving figure, recalling the words she had just casually said, a flash of light flashed across her eyes.
After leaving the room, Ran Yunshang looked at Xi Honglei with mixed emotions. She suppressed the nausea she felt when she saw the body and asked uneasily: "Honglei, how do you think this case should be investigated?"
"Should we start with the corpse?" Xi Honglei tilted his head and said uncertainly: "Don't the government offices have a coroner? After examining the corpse, there should be some conclusions."
"You know quite a lot." Mu Yunmeng, who had just walked out of the room, happened to hear Xi Honglei's words.
Slowly walking up to Xi Honglei, Mu Yunmeng asked: "Go on, do you have any other opinions?"
"No more." Xi Honglei shut up honestly and shook his head.
Mu Yunmeng looked at Xi Honglei thoughtfully for a while without saying a word. The dark and deep eyes made Xi Honglei feel a little scared. Just when Xi Honglei secretly cursed himself, he shouldn't have said anything just now.
, Mu Yunmeng suddenly changed his gaze, sighed softly, and said, "Let's go."
Returning to the lively streets, Xi Honglei looked at the people passing by, and a mixed and indescribable feeling suddenly came to his mind.
A strange environment, a strange life. It started so nonsensically that it almost caught her off guard.
"Honglei, what's wrong with you?" Ran Yunshang asked quickly when she saw Xi Honglei slowly stop and then stand there in a daze.
"It's okay." Xi Honglei shook her head with a forced smile, walked a few steps and stood side by side with Ran Yunshang, "Let's go."
Walking forward in silence, it wasn't until Mu Yunmeng said that he was going to buy some things that the atmosphere gradually improved.
Xi Honglei and Ran Yunshang stood on the street, waiting quietly for Mu Yunmeng who entered the store. Just as Xi Honglei looked at the clothes and faces of everyone passing by in boredom, there was a sound of horse hooves in the distance.
Voice.
Xi Honglei looked at the people on the street with a solemn expression, then turned her head to look in the direction where the sound of horse hooves came from. When she saw a black horse approaching quickly, scattering the crowd on the street.
, Xi Honglei couldn't help but smile coldly, and sarcastically wondered in her heart which dandy boy this was.
"Ah!" Ran Yunshang next to him suddenly changed his expression, looked diagonally sideways nervously, and let out a surprised sigh.
Xi Honglei followed her gaze and saw that in the middle of the road, a child who had just learned to walk was standing there helplessly, watching the horse in the distance coming towards him!
Without having time to think about it, Xi Honglei rushed over quickly, squatted down and picked up the child at the critical moment, and then rolled towards the roadside. If he took a step slower, he would be stepped on by the horse's hooves.
Xi Honglei held the crying child in her arms and stood up as if nothing had happened. She leaned over to check if the child was injured. After confirming that there was nothing wrong with the child, Xi Honglei suddenly turned her head and looked at the child who had already died because of her.
The man made a move, reined in the horse and stopped.
"Are you blind or a fool? You are looking for death!" The man on the horse stared down at Xi Hongtear and cursed. "You dare to block my way, I think you are tired of living!"
As soon as he finished speaking, before Xi Honglei and Ran Yunshang could fight back, the man on the horse was suddenly hit by a stone, and then lost gravity inexplicably, and fell off the horse.
He came down and sat on the ground in a very embarrassed state.
"Who! Who the hell dares to do something to me!" The man cursed and stood up, rubbed his sore butt, and looked around angrily at the people around him. But just when he was about to continue to curse, a bullet
The stone hit his face unexpectedly again, causing him so much pain that he could no longer speak.
This time, both Xi Honglei and Ran Yunshang found the source of the stone.
At the corner of the street, a man wearing light blue brocade clothes was leaning against the wall, playing with stones in his hand, looking at the perpetrator on horseback coldly. After feeling the red and tearful eyes, he looked at
Xi Honglei nodded, then suddenly took a step towards the man on horseback.
Xi Honglei looked at the behavior of the man in blue with some surprise. When he saw him walking up to the man in a leisurely manner, picking up the man's collar, whispering a few words, and turning around to leave, Xi Honglei couldn't help but
smiled.
After hearing what the man in blue said, the originally arrogant man on horseback suddenly became stiff. After standing there for a long time, he slowly came to his senses, took the reins of the horse, and silently held back his red tears.
He walked by, looking frightened and frightened.
"Honglei! Are you okay?" Ran Yunshang quickly ran to Xi Honglei's side and asked with concern.
"It's okay, but I don't know whose family this child belongs to." Xi Honglai lowered her eyes and glanced at the boy in her arms, with obvious anger in her eyes.
"Honglei, do you know that...man in blue just now?" Ran Yunshang didn't give Xi Honglei any time to wander. He looked at Xi Honglei nervously and asked with an unnatural expression.
"I don't know." Xi Honglei answered honestly, and then after staring at the unusual blush on Ran Yunshang's cheeks, she felt a bad feeling.
The child in her arms was suddenly taken away. Xi Honglei looked at Mu Yunmeng who came to her at some point. She picked up the child with an expressionless face, turned around and walked to a young couple and handed the child to them.
Before the couple could express their gratitude with tears in their eyes, Mu Yunmeng left without looking back, leaving Xi Honglei and Ran Yunshang to follow him back to his residence.
Ran Yunshang was in a daze all the time he returned to Mu Yunmeng's mansion. He sat down on the stone bench in the courtyard and looked up at the blue sky with a dull expression, as if his soul had been taken away.
"Have you always been so nosy?" Mu Yunmeng, who had witnessed everything just now, glanced at Xi Honglei coldly and asked in a cold voice.
"It's just special treatment under special circumstances." Xi Honglei lowered her head and answered in a muffled voice.
Mu Yunmeng didn't speak, but after looking at Xi Honglei seriously for a while, he returned to the room.
"Honglei..." Ran Yunshang sat next to Xi Honglei with twinkling eyes. After hesitating for a long time, he finally plucked up the courage and said, "That man just now, I..."
"Princess." Xi Honglei looked at Ran Yunshang's blushing expression amusedly, and asked in a positive tone: "You didn't fall in love at first sight with that person just now, did you?"
When Ran Yunshang heard the words love at first sight, she stood up instantly and stared at Xi Honglei. She wanted to scold Xi Honglei, but couldn't find the right words. After standing there in embarrassment for a long time, Ran Yunshang
Then he slumped his shoulders, nodded feebly, and said faintly: "What should I do...you have to help me..."
