Chapter 22: The Decoded Cipher (2) Carefree

  At some point, Xia Zhu discovered that Lin Yuanli extremely liked to hold her fingers, his way of holding hands was strong and overbearing, always opening his palm wide, then tightly wrapping around Xia Zhu's fingers, each joint fitting snugly.

  Xia Zhuo couldn't quite describe what kind of feeling it was, only that occasionally she wanted to break free, and he would slightly furrow his brow: "What?"

  "There's nothing," Xia Zhu furrowed her brow and changed the subject: "This person... is he skinning and dismembering?"

  "Serial killers do exist, but such a deformed way of killing is rare," said Lin Yuan. "I think we have reason to believe that the killer did all this before the victim had stopped breathing."

  Xia Zhu took a deep breath and thought of what he had heard before, then asked again: "Then... is the mastermind behind this time's incident Xi Bao?"

  "Xī Bó......" Lin Yuan's eyes flashed with a hint of mockery, and he finally nodded reluctantly: "If there's no mistake, the one who went to visit is him."

  Xia Zhu furrowed his brow, as if everything around him was shrouded in a thick gloom by someone named Xi Biao. Every place had his mark, he had walked too many places ahead of them, slowly imprinting his exclusive mark.

  Lin Yuan's expression was calm and peaceful, not showing any signs of the previous confrontation with Xi Biao. Xia Zhu hesitated for a moment before reaching out to take the bag from Lin Yuan: "Where are we going now?"

  The man's expression didn't change as he withdrew his hand, not letting Xia Zhu take the bag. He hailed a taxi: "Police station."

  "Want to go find Senior Shengyuan?"

  Upon hearing Xia Zhu's address, Lin Yuan's eyebrows and eyes flashed a hint of satisfied smile, his tone also became much gentler: "That's right."

  "Far away..." Xia Zhu couldn't help but speak up, a hint of a smile on her face.

  "What's up?" Lin Yuanxiao gestured for a good route and turned his head to look over, only to see Xia Zhu smiling slightly: "You seem very happy."

  Lin Yuan was originally a tall and slender figure, standing at 185 cm. At this moment, he looked down at Xia Zhu with an air of superiority, as if looking at a little girl. After a while, he raised the corner of his mouth with great interest: "That's right."

  Xia Zhuo rubbed his chin and tactfully didn't ask for an explanation.

  At this moment, Lin Yuanqi was raging in his heart. Why didn't you ask for the reason? How can you not ask for the reason?!

  Lin Yuanxu finally turned his head to look, only to see Xia Zhu staring out the window in a daze. Lin Yuanxu furrowed his brow, his lungs about to burst with anger. He thought for a moment before reluctantly taking out his phone, searching for the messaging function, and sending it off in one breath.

  But less than half a second later, Xia Zhu's phone rang.

  "You're my little apple, no matter how much I love you, it's never too much..."

  Summer bamboo black line pressed broken, not yet had time to see the content and heard the driver in front of him laugh out: "This song is so hot recently, my wife even asked me to set a special ringtone for her, is this a text message from her boyfriend?"

  The driver uncle looked at Lin Yuanbo who was sitting upright and still through the rearview mirror, with some doubt between his eyebrows.

  "Nothing's going on, nothing's going on! This ringing sound isn't me... Ah, what?"

  She held up the screen and turned to Lin Yuanbai in a daze: "This...?"

  There is only one expression above, concise and to the point, in line with Lin Yuan's style.

  Xia Zhu saw Lin Yuan's distant expression and didn't plan to care about her. Her first reaction was that Lin Yuan's phone had been hacked, and her second reaction was to start infinitely filling in the blanks, looking at Lin Yuan's face and imagining this expression, then she snorted.

  The driver uncle took advantage of the red light to look at the two people in the back through the rearview mirror, looked for a while and shook his head with a deep smile.

  Needless to say, the crowd nodded in understanding!

  Until the police arrived, Lin Yuanxi seemed to have no intention of explaining about the ringing or that proud and arrogant expression. He very naturally handed over the money, opened the door and got out of the car, and even slammed the car door shut with a flourish!

  Xia Zhu: "......"

  Driver: "...Miss, to be honest, your boyfriend's memory seems to be a bit poor." He can even forget the girlfriend he just quarreled with, how bad is his memory!

  Xia Zhu Hei Xian sighed: "He's not me... Ah, never mind, thank you Master."

  In short, she got used to it. She opened the door and chased after him a few steps, then saw Lin Yuanbo walking back with big strides. Seeing Xia Zhu coming out himself, he was slightly surprised, and after a while, he raised an eyebrow and said, "I was going to go back and find you."

  Xia Zhu looked at Lin Yuan silently: "......Thank you."

  "No need," Lin Yuanqie furrowed his brow: "Let's go."

  Still taking big strides, not having the slightest habit of waiting for others. Sometimes Xia Zhu even thought that with such a terrible temper, even if he didn't fire people, those little assistants would probably quit on their own soon? Thinking of this, Xia Zhu couldn't help but think of her phone's ringtone, took a look and found that only Lin Yuan's was treated specially, she had some smile in her eyes and lightly shook her head, this kind of vying for favor attitude...

  It's either not like Lin Yuan at all, or it's... too much like Lin Yuan.

  Lin Yuan, still unaware that he was being treated like a child, walked straight into the house and knocked on the door of the forensic lab. Sheng Yuan poked out half his head: "Not another corpse, please... Ah, it's you guys?"

  He smiled and greeted the two of them, pushing open the door to the morgue with a flourish. "Come on in, take a seat!"

  Xia Zhu looked silently at the operating tables filled with rows inside the house, and the bloodstains on the beds. In his heart, he wailed: "Thank you, no need."

  Lin Yuan walked in and took a look around, then solemnly said: "They are all from the same case, dismembered, with a short time interval."

  "Lin Zhuanjia Lin Shenbang, no wonder Miao Yuan said we can't do without you," Sheng Yuan yawned and waved his hand: "Quan Zhong, the case has just been transferred over, your arrival is just in time."
