I heard that your heart is like the sun

Chapter 31

Xiao Chuhan sat outside alone, Xie Qiuming was a little worried.

Seeing that she had been distracted, Wu Bai knocked on the table angrily, "What's the matter, why are you so abnormal today?"

Wu Bai knew Xie Qiuming very well, they were old friends for many years, and they were also well-known partners in the police station.

Naturally, he was a little strange.

Xie Qiuming was worried about the man in the corridor, and she was really distracted, so she said directly: "My friend is outside, I am a little worried about him being alone..."

When Wu Bai heard someone's words, he still couldn't understand, "Okay, go out and have a look."

Xie Qiuming smiled, and patted Wu Bai's arm, "Good brother." After speaking, he walked outside.

Wu Bai: "·······" Female college students are not allowed to stay.

Turning his head, he looked at Xiaomi who didn't have a strong sense of presence, his eyes flickered with raging gossip, making Xiaomi sweat... "Boss, boss, you..."

Wu Bai coughed and pretended not to care, "Are the people outside male or female?" Xie Qiuming had several good friends, and Wu Bai thought he could count them on two hands.

Xiaomi said dryly: "The man is still a very handsome man..."

Wu Bai: "..."

He put down the pen in his hand and curled his lips: "It's the suitor again."

Xiaomi shrank his neck, "It may not be as simple as a suitor."

"・・・"

"Okay, okay, let's continue talking about the case." Wu Bai didn't want to dig into Xie Qiuming's relationship history.

Bluntly changed the subject.

Xiaomi on the side sighed silently.

However, the man brought by Sister Qiuming this time is indeed a person whose existence is difficult to ignore regardless of his aura or appearance.

Xiaomi, "Boss, tell me, Sister Qiuming, has she been hurt emotionally?"

"..."

"No." Wu Bai's face changed slightly.

Xiaomi knows the fun and doesn't ask more questions.

·
In the big office of the serious crime team, Xiao Chuhan knew the rules very well, and didn't tamper with anything in the serious crime team office.

Sitting on the chair, looking at the phone, until Xie Qiuming came out, he heard the sound of the door opening, immediately raised his head, looked over, and saw Xie Qiuming coming out alone, "Are you done?" Too fast right?

Xiao Chuhan was a little surprised.

Xie Qiuming smiled, "No, I'm not worried about you being outside alone, so I came out to see you."

Xiao Chuhan sat up straight, secretly rejoicing in his heart, "It's okay, if you want to be busy, go do it." He didn't want to delay her work, even if he really wanted to stay with her for a while.

Xie Qiuming was extremely embarrassed to bother him at such a late hour, "I'll treat you to dinner tomorrow, I really bothered you too much today."

When Xiao Chuhan heard this, he was immediately unhappy, she shouldn't be so unfamiliar with him, she should be polite.

"..."

"You don't have to be polite to me." Xiao Chuhan was extremely aggrieved.

Xie Qiuming, "I'm not being polite to you, I just feel embarrassed to bother you."

Even if it's the little brother next door, she can't always bother him like this.

Xiao Chuhan frowned, and said confidently: "I promised my mother and aunt to take care of you, so naturally I won't break my promise, so you can rest assured to order me, don't be embarrassed, I'm talking so late, I really leave you alone Come on, how can I rest assured."

Xie Qiuming didn't hold back anymore, and smiled slightly, "Then you sit and wait for me for a while, and I will talk to Lao Wu about the case to see if there are any new discoveries and clues, and then we will go home."

"Yes." Xiao Chuhan nodded.

·
When Xie Qiuming returned to Wu Bai's office, she saw Wu Bai's gloomy face. She knew that Wu Bai's anger had reached its peak.

"What's the matter, who made you unhappy?"

"..."

Wu Bai was now in a rage, and glared at Xie Qiuming, who was watching the excitement, "There is no clue about this case, you can still laugh."

Xie Qiuming glanced at the clock, "I know you've been under a lot of pressure recently, this case is really cruel and bad, but you can't put such a lot of pressure on yourself."

Wu Bai put down some of the photos of the case, all of which were the victims’ corpses, and they were all too horrible to look at. She couldn’t stand it anymore, so she was naturally very angry. To be honest, Wu Bai had never been involved in any case, but this serial murder case is really serious. Make him very angry!

"Look for yourself. These photos and lives are gone forever and will never come back. These families are completely broken."

Xie Qiuming, "Hey..."

"I went to the sub-bureau below, and one after another, I found three more girls who died in the same way as this case. These dead people all have one characteristic in common."

"They're all students, right?" Xie Qiuming grabbed one of the photos on the table and asked.

Wu Bai nodded, "This murderer is very rampant and has been committing crimes non-stop. I'm afraid he will become more and more crazy."

"..."

"Why did the murderer target the female students? Who was the first victim of the homicide?" Xie Qiuming took these photos and looked at them one by one. Suddenly, she found that these victims had more than one common feature. There is another characteristic. She raised her head, touched her nose, and put down the photo in her hand, "Old Wu, tell me, don't these girls look the same, are they all pretty girls?"

Wu Bai has been looking at the pictures of these girls these days. He really didn’t see anything, just because these girls are very beautiful. Pretty little girl."

"..."

"They are girls who are more mature in their paintings, but their foundations are pretty, and they are all the kind of girls who are ordinary without makeup, but they are very beautiful when they are painted."

"・・・"

Wu Bai was speechless.

Xiaomi said on the side, "I remember, boss, when we went to the homes of these victims and checked their supplies, didn't we find that these girls are very beauty-loving, the skin care products and cosmetics at home are messy, you And whispered..."

Xiaomi is straightforward.

"..."

"Yes."

"・・・"

This early in the morning, Wu Bai has been looking with Xie Qiuming at the places where these victims often go, to find common ground.

Sudden.

Xie Qiuming looked at these dead people, there was really no intersection.

"They don't go to bars or places that are dangerous. Tell me, how did the murderer lock the dead?"

"It shouldn't be a coincidence, the probability is..." Xiaomi didn't finish his sentence, everyone understood.

Xie Qiuming also felt strange, "Could it be that the dead were all carefully selected by the murderer?"

"But the frequency of the murderer's crimes is too frequent, and this target can't be locked up just by seeing one."

"Is there a possible murderer's occupation that provides the murderer with perfect convenience for selecting targets?"

"possible."

"What kind of occupation would the murderer be? Can he come into contact with these girls who haven't graduated from college, who don't even care about beauty, and whose family background is not bad, who are pampered by their families?"

To put it bluntly, these victims are all delicate girls raised by good families.

"・・・"

"These deceased were all accidents in different districts, and they were all in different universities. Apart from being beautiful, these deceased were well-educated, had no enemies with anyone, and had simple social relationships. The places they often visited were schools, shopping malls, movie theaters, I have never been to a restaurant, or even a hotel, on what occasion would such a girl be targeted by the murderer as a target."

"・・・"

"There is one."

Half an hour later, Wu Bai pushed the table and changed into a comfortable position.

"what?"

"Maybe repair workers, plumbers or courier workers, etc."

"what?"

"When I asked the deceased's family what the deceased had done recently, there was a strange thing."

"what?"

"It's nothing, I'm thinking about it and looking it up." Wu Bai was not sure.

"That's all for today, go back to sleep."

Wu Bai was a little tired.

This night, Xiao Chuhan silently accompanied Xie Qiuming to work overtime.

"Is there no clue about this case?" Xiao Chuhan sat on the chair in Xie Qiuming's office in the forensic room and looked at her seriously.

Xie Qiuming raised his head and sighed, "Yes, there are many victims in this case, it is imminent to solve the case, and the pressure from the higher-ups is also great. Wu Bai has a temper these days, and we are also tired, but there is no way to complain. I can only silently endure the pressure from the outside world. I only hope that the murderer will be caught quickly, justice will be given to the deceased, and comfort to their parents. It's a bigger blow."

Xiao Chuhan didn't understand her at all, "Why did you choose this profession in the first place?"

"I don't know why, I just want to get some justice for some people." Xie Qiuming rolled her eyes silently. In fact, she herself almost forgot why she chose this profession back then. Maybe it was because she didn't have enough points and it would be better if she couldn't get into it. University of...
"You are a top student, it is easy to go to any university, but I am different..." Xie Qiuming smiled mischievously, she never felt inferior to being a scumbag.

Xiao Chuhan said: "You and Shengsheng are really good best friends, Shengsheng is afraid of blood, and even chose to be a nurse, and then went to the emergency department, and did not choose other departments."

"She has a different voice."

"You really protect her." Xiao Chuhan silently took a mouthful of vinegar, so sour.

Xie Qiuming: "I grew up with her, so of course I know her well. In order to overcome her fear of blood, she had to suffer a lot. Even I love her dearly!"

"..."

"I don't know." Xiao Chuhan was a little uncomfortable, he had been abroad all these years, after all, he cared too little for his family, no wonder others!
Seeing Xiao Chuhan's loss, Xie Qiuming said with a smile, "Shengsheng has always regarded you as her big brother as her goal and pride since she was a child. She has never resented you because you are not at home. Little brother."

She didn't say nice words to comfort Xiao Chuhan, but Xiao Shengsheng thought so, he was really Shengsheng's favorite brother.

For the first time, Xiao Chuhan felt that he had been away from home for so many years and abandoned his family. It might be a wrong choice!

Now that my parents are older and my younger sister has grown up and become independent, I don't need him as an older brother.

Even the parents are used to living without his son for many years, Xiao Chuhan felt very uncomfortable, but he didn't know what to say!
"Thank you very much today. It's so late, are you sleepy?" Xie Qiuming was sleepy and exhausted, and she really wanted to squat in the office for a while.

"..."

Xiao Chuhan smiled slightly, and didn't think it was too troublesome, he was worried that she would come out so late by herself, so he said: "It's okay, I often work overtime, sometimes it's the next afternoon after working overtime, I'm used to staying up late, and I'm not sleepy yet."

Xie Qiuming, "Forget it, I'm done too, let's go home."

"Okay." He didn't object, he could stay up all night but he didn't want Xie Qiuming to stay up all night.

·
After Wu Bai was busy with the work at hand, he passed by Xie Qiuming's office. From a distance, he saw that the lights in the office were dim, and it seemed that the person had already left.

Wu Bai sighed, thinking of the man who came here with Xie Qiuming today, who is he?He had never seen it before, so he was a little worried, so he thought about talking to Xie Qiuming more in a few days.

Wu Bai didn't mention it to anyone. He very much hoped that Xie Qiuming would come out of his brother's death and start a new relationship with a sweet man who could give her happiness.

"Boss, what are you in a daze for?" Xiaomi yawned, walked over, and patted Wu Bai's shoulder, "Go and sleep for a while, we will continue to visit and investigate during the day."

"Yeah." Wu Bai nodded, turned around and walked to the serious crime team. He has to work overtime again today, and the dark circles under his eyes are going to get worse. "Xiaomi, you should go to sleep for a while."

"Ah."

·
Xie Qiuming, who often stayed up late, was late again the next day.

Xiao Chuhan had class in the morning, so she didn't have time to make breakfast for her, so she ordered a few breakfasts with good ratings and good reviews on the food delivery app.

Then he hurried off to work.

When Xie Qiuming woke up, the takeaway brother had already put the takeaway in the bamboo basket at the door of her house.

She stretched, and walked out in her slippers.

Picking up someone's breakfast, she somehow felt that someone was too caring and careful. If it was her, she would wake up late, so naturally she wouldn't be preparing for breakfast.

·
The mobile phone on the table rang. Xie Qiuming glanced at the mobile phone and saw a WeChat message from a caring man.

xiao: Are you awake?

Xiao: Does the takeaway I ordered suit your appetite?

Xie Qiuming smiled slightly, thinking that the big brother next door really cared about him.

She will return to him immediately.

Xie Qiuming: The breakfast tastes good, thank you~ Jiumi
xiao: yes
Xiao: Are you going to the police station later?Will you still work overtime today?
Xie Qiuming sighed for two consecutive questions about her work.

Sluggish for a while: I want to go!
Xiao: I will pick you up at night

Xie Qiuming: No need, I have to work overtime in the bureau recently, so don’t come with me
xiao:········

Xie Qiuming is not replying to Xiao Chuhan's news, she is indeed going to the bureau in the afternoon, there is not much time to waste, she has to eat quickly, and then wash up and put on makeup.

Noon is not the rush hour, and there will be no traffic jams on the road. She can reach the bureau before 01:30.

This guy Wu Bai has already left her two important messages on WeChat.

overtime today.

A full autopsy report is due today.

This really distressed Xie Qiuming. Originally, she thought she could rest, but now Wu Bai gave her a new task.

She was going to redo the autopsy reports for the other dead.

so tired.

so tired.

I don't know what apprentice Xiaochun is doing.

Xie Qiuming left the house at 12:30.

·
Wu Bai quietly waited for someone in the corridor with folded arms.

I saw a woman who loves smugness, walking slowly.

"・・・"

"Your speed is too slow!" Wu Bai couldn't help nagging.

Xie Qiuming rolled her eyes and sneered, "I didn't ask you to wait for me!"

"hurry up."

"・・・"

"Okay." Xie Qiuming shrugged, her beautiful and delicate eyebrows frowned, "Your temper is getting bigger and bigger, are you going to menopause? You should find a girlfriend quickly, you are too angry big."

Wu Bai: "Thank you for your concern. You should marry yourself as soon as possible. Don't worry about me all the time."

Xie Qiuming: "Cut~"

·
In the forensic room, apprentice Xiaochun has already started working.

All the corpses of the victims in this case were sent to the city bureau today, and the forensic doctor of the city bureau started to do a new autopsy.

No, Wu Bai called Xie Qiuming back.

"Xiaochun."

"Sister Qiuming, you are here."

"Um,"

"Are these the dead, what are they called, and how old are they?"

Xie Qiuming looked at the delicate girls on the dissecting table, feeling a little uncomfortable, they were too young.

It was supposed to be living happily and recklessly, but now lying on this cold dissecting table, it was really sad.

"The one on the left is 19 years old, Liu Jiajia."

"..."

"Ah."

"Let's start with her."

Xie Qiuming is very serious when working.

After finishing everything, she was able to catch her breath.

Xie Qiuming finished his work, and Wu Bai stepped over to get the autopsy report.

"Thank you, I will treat you to dinner in a few days."

Another empty check, Xie Qiuming snorted and ignored it, "Well, how long will it take to find out the identity of the deceased?" Those three beautiful girls are really pitiful.

Their parents must be very worried and anxious now.

If they can't find their daughters, there must be hope that they are still alive.

·
"I'm looking into it. You also know that we have too many people here, and there are also a lot of foreigners. We need to check one by one. We only know that these girls must be college students or college students, but there are also many universities in Linshi. Someone has been sent to the university to investigate the missing girl and see if there is any news that matches these three people."

"Ah."

"..."

"Speed ​​up."

"Will do."

Wu Bai turned around and left.

Xie Qiuming returned to the office, ready to take a good rest.

As a forensic doctor, all she can do is make the dead speak.

But sometimes, the truth told by the deceased will make people very unbelievable.

Just like this case.

In a case that has been deadlocked for weeks, another death has been added.

A college student, who was three months pregnant, suffered unimaginable inhuman torture and abuse before her death, and her eyes were also destroyed by the murderer.

The same murderer, his modus operandi is getting more and more vicious.

this time······
The murderer's crime method has escalated.

Xie Qiuming finished the autopsy report of the newly added deceased and asked Xiaochun to send it to Wu Bai. It was already 11:30 in the evening, she hadn't had a drop of water, and her forehead was covered with sweat due to stomach pain.

"..."

"Qiuming, what's the matter with you?" A colleague passed by the anatomy room and saw Xie Qiuming clutching his stomach, looking very uncomfortable, and immediately walked in, concerned.

Xie Qiuming smiled weakly, "It's okay, it's just a stomach problem, I'll go and take some medicine, and it will be fine."

"I'm going to buy medicine for you, you rest for a while."

"No need, I have stomach medicine, I'm going to pour a cup of hot water, you go to work, there are many cases today, and I have to work overtime, and I'm urgently urged."

Colleagues are not at ease, "Can you really do it alone?"

"Okay."

Xie Qiuming waved his hand, it was just a stomachache...

She didn't take it too seriously. As usual, she took the stomach medicine bottle, opened it, took out a few pills, and ate them all.

Then he sat on a chair, held a cup of hot water in his hand, and stayed quietly aside.

Quietly enduring the stomachache, now she doesn't want to say a word.

"..."

Xiao Chuhan worked overtime for a while tonight, wrote a thesis, and finished the work at hand. It was already twelve o'clock. He glanced at the time, and as usual, picked up the phone and walked out of the office. The office door was locked.

These days, he hasn't contacted Bai Tuanzi for several days.

Xie Qiuming had a stomachache and his face was pale.

She was the only one in the office.

Quiet and silent.

She would habitually glance at the sound of the hour hand turning.

Second hand, minute hand, hour hand.

"Hey."

She sighed.

Faint.

"what is he doing?"

Xie Qiuming couldn't help laughing after not seeing Professor Xiao for a few days, how could he think of him.

People just don't talk about it, no, Professor Xiao called, and she didn't hesitate to answer it directly, "Professor Xiao, what's the matter?"

Professor Xiao on the other end of the phone was full of smiles, full of joy, like a child who got a big prize and wanted to share it with important people, "I have good news today, do you want to celebrate with me?"

"What good news? Is this a career improvement, or is it a relationship thing?"

"neither."

"Okay." Xie Qiuming pouted, "I'm busy today, working overtime, I'm afraid I won't be able to celebrate with you."

want to go...
Xie Qiuming narrowed his eyes, counting the time, his stomach still hurts, if he can't go, he really can't.

At this time, someone's disappointed voice came from the mobile phone, "Okay, then I won't celebrate today, you can rest another day, we are going out to have a party, let's celebrate."

"..."

"Uh, okay." Xie Qiuming couldn't bear it, but there was really no way to ask for leave. If she dared to leave, Wu Baiming would definitely trouble her again.

Xiao Chuhan still didn't give up, "Can I go to the bureau to find you later?" I haven't seen you for a few days. She is busy and he is busy these days, but I can't see you every time. If it wasn't for the occasional meeting on WeChat After chatting for a few minutes, he didn't know what she was busy with every day. There was some disappointment, but more of it was unhappiness.

Xie Qiuming, "No, you can go home and have a good rest."

"Oh, well, I'm going on a business trip in a few days, you..." You won't see me for several days, Xiao Chuhan didn't say it.

Xie Qiuming is not saying anything, in the world of adults, the word ambiguous should not be used on them, it is inappropriate.

"The day after tomorrow, I will rest, you should have time."

"Have."

"Let's go out to eat together."

"it is good."

"You choose the place, I'll pay for it!" Xie Qiuming took the initiative to invite him to dinner for the first time.

Xiao Chuhan, "Yes."

In foreign countries, the meeting is AA system. After returning to China, he doesn’t have many friends. He just goes out to eat with his family a lot, so naturally he doesn’t know AA. The only few times he went out to eat with Xie Qiuming, most of them were on his own initiative. Pay the bill.

Every time Xie Qiuming would give him a gift afterward, and repay his favor for the treat.

Bai Tuanzi's behavior made him really unhappy.

Bai Tuanzi treated him as an outsider too much. He obviously liked to chase after him when he was young, calling him Brother Xiao sweetly, but now that he has grown up, he has become more and more alienated from him.

Xiao Chuhan regretted going abroad for so many years and never came back. If he came back often, Bai Tuanzi would not be so strange to him, and he would not be so alienated today.

He doesn't know the answer.

But it's just uncomfortable in my heart.

Xiao Chuhan has never talked about a girlfriend, the only woman he has been in contact with and who has been misunderstood is Ning Xin.

Therefore, he doesn't know how to please girls, how to get in touch with girls, and gradually get rid of the unfamiliarity, and he doesn't know what to do.
