Chapter 101 The Flower of the High Mountain in Criminal Investigation (5)
It is no exaggeration to say that all colleagues who saw this scene were stunned.
Everyone in the Seventh Precinct knows how much Captain Lin hates physical contact with others. He does not accept sharing anything with others. He touches corpses more times than living people, even though he is wearing gloves. .
However, Captain Lin actually put a coat on Shui Wei in front of everyone.
And, if I remember correctly, that coat belongs to Captain Lin, right? I saw him coming in wearing it this morning.
Those eating instant noodles, those chatting and joking, and those who were about to throw away the bucket after eating, all seemed to have been injected with time magic, and kept their original postures in a daze watching this scene.
Shui Wei, who always likes to observe her surroundings, rarely paid attention to the expressions of her colleagues. Her mind was already filled with the horrific scene she just saw.
Until the boyfriend in front of her gently took her hand and transferred the warmth with his own.
Touching Shui Wei's cold hand, the man cast his gaze on Shui Wei's face. His beautiful eyebrows were slightly frowned. He followed her line of sight and looked back at the empty corridor. When he saw nothing, there was a trace of doubt in his eyes. .
He simply took Shui Wei's hand and walked towards the office.
"It's too cold outside, come inside."
Shui Wei was still in shock, subconsciously moving her steps and leaving with Lin Shiheng.
--boom.
It wasn't until the door was gently closed that the group of people squatting outside and remaining petrified breathed out a heavy breath.
"Wasn't it my hallucination just now? Captain Lin put clothes on Awei??"
"Not only that, they are holding hands!"
"Oh my god, should I go buy lottery tickets? The sun doesn't rise from the west either."
"Last night Captain Lin agreed and I thought he was joking. I saw that he was no different from usual today and I was even more sure. I didn't expect that he was serious."
"I have guessed it a long time ago. When did you meet Captain Lin and made a joke? I shared it with you during lunch today, and you actually thought I was overthinking it."
A group of people were like students whose teacher suddenly left during class. They burst out with great enthusiasm for the scene they just saw and gathered together to discuss happily.
Feng Kaiming was really aware of it. Although he was a little surprised that Captain Lin, who had such an indifferent character, could actually show affection in public, he was not as shocked as other colleagues as if they saw a meteorite hitting the earth.
He stood up, walked to where Shui Wei was standing in a few steps, picked up the fallen sausage, and rubbed it on his clothes.
Tsk tsk tsk, people in love don’t even want delicious food.
***
Lin Shiheng brought Shui Wei behind her desk. Seeing her sitting down in a state of disbelief, his eyebrows moved. He turned around and took the water glass on her desk, and went to the water dispenser to get a glass of water.
"It's a little hot, don't drink it yet."
Putting the quilt with the water in Shui Wei's hand, the man warned in a faint voice and stood in front of Shui Wei's desk.
Shuiwei held the cup. The temperature transferred by the hot water through the cup calmed her down a little, but her heart was still beating in fright due to the scene she just saw.
"When I came over just now, something was wrong with you."
The man's slender hands fell on the table, and his white fingers tapped lightly on the table. When he looked at Shui Wei, his beautiful eyes narrowed slightly.
The magnetic voice faintly entered her ears: "Your pupils are dilated, your face is pale, there is cold sweat on your forehead, and the fingers of your hands are stiff and slightly curled. Your body sent me a signal that you are nervous."
"After that, the lips trembled, but the legs did not move at all. It was a sign that the brain automatically cut off the control of the body because of the stimulation but wanted to escape."
After Lin Shiheng finished speaking, his eyes fell into Shui Wei's eyes, and his eyes met hers, with a handsome face full of determination.
"Your eyes are always on the corridor, but when I look back, there is nothing in the corridor. Shuiwei, what are you afraid of?"
"me……"
The palm of her hand was filled with the warmth from the hot water. Shui Wei was still in confusion, but she didn't expect that before she had time to think about whether to tell Lin Shiheng, he had already guessed everything through her facial expressions.
Thinking of the figure that suddenly appeared and disappeared, she could almost feel the tingling pain in her heart due to nervousness.
But can you say this?
Today is no longer the superstitious era before. Everyone believes in science.
No, that's not right.
Shui Wei forced herself to relax slowly. She believed in Lin Shiheng more than science.
She has witnessed the strong and calm side of this man no matter where he is, and has heard his legends countless times. Now he is still her boyfriend. No matter what, he must be more trustworthy than others.
After trying hard to convince herself, Shui Wei's lips, which were slightly white due to nervousness, regained some color.
"I just... saw Zou Mingfang in the corridor."
"Zou Mingfang?"
As expected, Lin Shiheng used a question sentence. What reassured Shui Wei was that he did not directly deny or comfort her that she was wrong, nor did he show a frightened look. He only repeated these three words and assumed a posture of listening carefully. .
"Yes, that's her."
Shui Wei closed her eyes and recalled with a pale face: "What I saw was her dead appearance. Her hands and feet were tied with ropes, her face was white and swollen from soaking, and she was wearing the same clothes where the body was found yesterday. His eyes were open and he was standing in the corridor looking at me."
Even though it had disappeared, Shui Wei couldn't help but hold the cup tightly when she recalled the horrific scene, and even her breathing became heavier.
"The state of the soul after death?"
Lin Shiheng's expression remained the same, as if what he heard was not a ghost, but a normal event.
"Is she still there now? We may need a monk or a priest."
It must be said that his calmness unconsciously removed some of the tension and fear in Shui Wei's heart.
"She's gone. Just now when you came out, you seemed to have bumped into her, and then she disappeared."
"Captain Lin, aren't you afraid?"
"It's just a soul."
The man explained in a calm voice: "Someone once did an experiment. When a dying person lies on a scale, the weight is different from when he is put on the scale after death. Therefore, he proposed that humans have souls. When people are alive, they stay in their bodies. When humans die, their souls leave their bodies. This is the weight of the soul."
Shui Wei was a little stunned. She had heard this example before, but she was busy studying every day before, and later she went to work. She had no interest in studying this, so she just listened to it.
"But she looks scary."
Shui Wei's face turned pale, and she murmured with a blank look in her eyes: "Her face was so swollen that I couldn't see her original appearance. Her eyes were white, and she just stared at me. It was more terrifying than a horror movie."
"Compared to horror movies, our profession is destined to make us come into contact with different corpses. I once saw a corpse that was dumped after death. When it was discovered, it was already huge, and several colleagues vomited."
Lin Shiheng said bad things about Feng Kaiming with an expressionless face: "Especially Feng Kaiming, he rushed to the scene just after dinner, and after seeing the corpse He vomited all the food he had just eaten, and some of it splashed on my shoes. I think his vomit is more disgusting than that corpse. "
Facing his girlfriend who was looking at him with a pair of clear eyes, he accused dryly, and even a trace of grievance flashed in his eyes that were always emotionless: "Those are the new shoes I just bought."
It was too rare for a man who always faced people coldly to look aggrieved because of a pair of new shoes. Shui Wei almost laughed out loud, and the previous tense and fearful atmosphere disappeared because of this.
"You are right. Although I am still a newcomer, I have read a lot of information when I was in school before, and I have seen more terrifying corpses. Although Zou Mingfang's face is swollen and deformed, it doesn't scare me. "
The reason why she was scared was that it shouldn't appear in her eyes.
Thinking of this, Shui Wei suppressed her fear and began to worry about the future: "Will she do something to me?"
"The soul is also a person's transformation. Even if she really turns into a soul state, she should look for the murderer, and she shouldn't do anything to you. "
It makes sense. Shui Wei gradually relaxed: "Every wrong has its perpetrator, every debt has its creditor. Even if it's a fierce ghost, she shouldn't come to me."
"But what if she shows up again next time?"
Lin Shiheng looked at his girlfriend whose expression had begun to warm up, and thought for a while: "It's still unclear why she showed up. I'll stay with you during this period. If she shows up, we can communicate with her and see what she wants to do."
His attitude was very matter-of-fact. He was obviously very used to arranging everything. Although she was no longer afraid, Shui Wei, who was confused by these things and couldn't think for the time being, didn't think much about it and nodded and agreed.
"Okay, let's find out what she wants to do first."
After she was comforted, although she was still a little scared, her spirit gradually improved. "Captain Lin, you didn't eat, are you hungry?"
"It doesn't matter, I'll eat after get off work."
Lin Shiheng turned around, took a piece of paper from his desk, came back, took the paper himself, put it on Shui Wei's forehead, and gently helped her wipe the cold sweat.
Shui Wei blushed and looked at the man in front of her. He had a handsome face. Although there was no expression on his face, his beautiful eyes were staring at her forehead seriously.
The strength of wiping was also gentle and just right.
Although Captain Lin looked difficult to approach, he must be a very gentle person in his heart.
Shui Wei blushed and stared at her boyfriend. The shock just now was completely replaced by the rising pink bubbles.
When this case is solved, maybe we can try to date after get off work.
Eat delicious food, visit beautiful scenery, watch movies and hold hands.
Lin Shiheng retracted his hand, "Your face is very red, are you thinking about me?"
Shui Wei coughed lightly and nodded with a red face.
The corner of the man's mouth in front of her slightly raised a very small arc, and his always cold tone also had a little fluctuation.
"Me too, thinking about you."
Ah, this damn temptation.
Shui Wei covered her hot cheeks that seemed to be about to explode. If it weren't for the wrong occasion, she would have wanted to pull her boyfriend to kiss her immediately.
She still had awe for Lin Shiheng and respect for her boss, but instead of kissing her lips, could she kiss her cheeks?
Shui Wei began to plan in her mind where to go on a date after work.
As for the female ghost?
Thinking carefully, compared to the dismemberment case materials she had seen before, she was not that scary except that she was a little swollen and swollen.
