Just as Lin Xiqiu was about to turn around and return to the archives room, Lu Sheng's small voice came over quickly.
"It's about Lin Xi!"
Lu Sheng quickly glanced in the direction of Zhang Mao, then hurriedly looked at Lin Xi. His heart was beating hard. Although his voice was weak, the voice still scared him, lest more people
hear.
After he finished speaking, he immediately lowered his head and pretended to read the file.
These four short words were like four extremely fast bullets, none of which missed the target, hitting Lin Xi's sensitive nerves.
She was stunned for a moment. She knew that the voice just now came from the mouth of the man in front of her, and she also knew that he was speaking to her.
Lin Xi had too many questions about Lin Xi.
How could my brother who rarely drinks drink drive? The Yanjiang Road by the Meijiang River is not the final route for my brother to go home at all. On the contrary, it will take more detours. Also, what my brother said to me before he died.
What do those mean?
Lu Sheng took another deep breath, and then said a longer sentence, but the voice was shaking extremely hard.
"Meijia Hotel, tonight. Turn around and keep walking!"
Lu Sheng glanced at Zhang Mao from the corner of his eye again, only to see that Zhang Mao had turned around and was about to walk back.
Lin Xi stood there motionless, Zhang Mao looked at her curiously as he walked.
"Let's go!"
Lu Sheng was not sure whether his last two words were heard by Zhang Mao. The moment Zhang Mao walked to them, Lu Sheng finished saying this, and he took a few more files and handed them to them.
Lin Xi.
"These are useless, you can take them back first. Do you still have the files?"
"there is none left."
Lin Xi finally reacted. After she answered Lu Sheng, she quickly took the file, turned around, walked through the iron gate, and walked back to the archives room.
Zhang Mao seemed a little alert. Under his concealed expression, some questions could still be seen popping up restlessly.
"This lesbian just now looked very bad."
Lu Sheng said casually, calm on the surface, but his heart was in turmoil. Simply, there was no tremor in his voice.
Zhang Mao's full presence made Lu Sheng feel something strange. Every word he said was carefully thought out and cautious.
Lu Sheng didn't know whether his words could dispel Zhang Mao's doubts, but he knew that he would always have something to say now.
"Oh, is it so?"
Regarding the relationship between Lin Xi and Lin Xi, Zhang Mao didn't say much to Lu Sheng. He just responded casually, "Police work is always a bit harder."
After Zhang Mao finished speaking, he sat down on the chair and looked at Lu Sheng who lowered his head. Lu Sheng was also very sure that the pair of eyes behind him were staring at him, and his back felt cold.
In the long corridor, there are no more additional sounds. When you flip through the files, the papers are rustling; when you gasp and breathe, the flowing air whistles at the tip of your nose.
Lu Sheng swallowed unnaturally, his Adam's apple moving up and down nervously.
A new sound finally appeared, and Xiao Zhu's footsteps penetrated the entire corridor without any obstruction.
Xiao Zhu came back and said, "Huh? Where is the file I just read?" As soon as he finished speaking, Xiao Zhu frowned and began to curse himself in his heart.
"I asked them to take it back just now." Lu Sheng pointed to the file he was reading in his hand, "We may have found it."
"Really? That's great."
Xiao Zhu pretended to be excited and turned to look at Zhang Mao again.
Zhang Mao also laughed, his smile seemed to be forced to smile, it was very ugly.
After copying the temporary dossier in his hand, Lu Sheng and Xiao Zhu helped Zhang Mao pack up the tables and chairs and put them back.
"Captain Lu, let's go have a meal together tonight."
"No, it's very late. Let's do it next time. I've already troubled you all day." Lu Sheng refused Zhang Mao's polite words which were not sincere.
"Then I'll drive you back."
"We drove here and parked the car nearby." Lu Sheng said, "Thank you, Captain Zhang, please go back and rest early."
The three of them talked as they walked and arrived at the door of the police station.
"Captain Zhang, I may trouble you again in the future."
"No problem, you're welcome, Captain Lu."
The few people said a few more polite words at the door and then separated.
Lu Sheng and Xiao Zhu quickly walked back and got into the car, while Zhang Mao returned to the police station building.
…
The spacious director's office was filled with smoke again.
Zhang Maozheng was standing in front of his desk reporting, while Director Zhuang was sitting on the chair behind his desk listening.
"They stayed in the archives for a whole day, during which time they only had a meal and left. Finally, they made a photocopy of a dossier and took it away."
"Just take a dossier?"
Zhang Mao has already taken the file and handed it to Director Zhuang.
Director Zhuang briefly glanced at the file a few times, and then said, "Is there anything special?"
Zhang Mao hesitated for a moment, considering whether to tell what happened just now. It was only a short moment, but his mind was thinking quickly.
Maybe I am too sensitive? What is there to report on this kind of thing? I'd better report it. If I miss an important discovery, it will be troublesome. But, how can this kind of thing make me hesitate?
?Why do I have the idea not to report?
"Nothing special was discovered." He just said it subconsciously, and Zhang Mao didn't know why he didn't say it.
After Lin Xi died, Zhang Mao felt that he was more valued by Director Zhuang. If he didn't dare to ask before, he now had the urge to ask.
Director Zhuang was full of curiosity about the Huangzhou police's vigilance. He finally plucked up the courage to ask what happened. He was about to ask, but before he could say anything.
"Nothing special, just go out first." Director Zhuang looked at Zhang Mao, who had been there without speaking for a long time, so he coldly took the initiative.
Faced with Director Zhuang's cold attitude, Zhang Mao swallowed back his words as soon as they came to his lips.
Zhang Mao turned around and walked out of the office. As soon as he left, he suddenly understood why he was so hesitant just now.
"It was me walking away that got them out of my sight. I hope, I hope I think too much. I hope there won't be any mistakes on my part."
In the office, Director Zhuang didn't pay much attention to the file. Ever since he saw the surveillance video, he knew that it was just a useless file, just a tool used to cover up.
Director Zhuang turned on the computer monitor and played the surveillance footage again.
He watched Lu Sheng and Xiao Zhu guarding the iron gate. He guessed that they did not want to miss any staff in the archives. He also saw Lin Xi's brief stay in front of Lu Sheng and knew those fleeting seconds.
, and will also convey some important information.
"Lin Xi is dead, are they looking for Lin Xi?" Director Zhuang really couldn't understand their intention.
At this moment, someone's footsteps came from the door. Director Zhuang quickly closed the computer interface and looked towards the door...
…
"Master, how is it?"
"Wait, we'll wait at the hotel."
"Will she come? Will Lin Xi come looking for her?"
Lu Sheng didn't reply. He didn't know why he was so sure, but he just felt that Lin Xi would definitely come.
Xiao Zhu drove the car towards the beautiful home, the speedometer pointer swinging back and forth on the edge of the speed limit.
Lu Sheng opened the car window. The wind outside the window was howling. He stretched out his hand to feel the night wind outside the car.
With his nerves highly concentrated, he didn't realize anything was wrong at all, because he didn't feel a single breath of wind on his fingertips when he stretched out his hand.
