Is it normal to live on the phone to help your boyfriend investigate the case?

Chapter 185 Formal

Qu Mingcong was slightly taken aback, "Do you think Ding Na's death is related to the TV interview?"

"It's not necessarily related, but it can be seen that Ding Zhaolin is good at creating such topics," Xiao Qiao said in a serious tone, "The reason he gave in the book is to let the legend stop at the legend, and he doesn't want to further exaggerate and highlight it through TV programs. , Calling the attention of literary and entertainment lovers to return to the cultural relic itself, but the actual effect is that the rumors about that antique have not disappeared, and have intensified, evolving into several different versions, and the legend of the crying girl is one of them."

Qu Mingcong thought for a while, "I remember that Qingjiang TV station had a private secret revealing program. No matter how mysterious the incident is, the final investigation results will be based on science. If Ding Zhaolin accepts the TV station's interview, it will bring enthusiasm to the museum. It will also be very short-lived, when the dust settles on a matter, people will no longer be keen to discuss it, Ding Zhaolin must be very aware of this in his heart, so he rejected the TV station's invitation."

"That's right," Xiao Qiao nodded, "every step Ding Zhaolin took was to maintain the discussion in the museum, and to maintain the story, he knew that there would be crying in the museum in the middle of the night, but he didn't deal with it, because he wanted more things to happen in the museum. Some strange things, the urban legend of the crying girl will prevail in the museum, it can be said that it is a crooked attack, which is exactly what he wants."

The more Qu Mingcong listened, the more he frowned, "...But the popularity will drop one day. He is doing it in a cocoon. Qingjiang City itself is a well-known city of urban legends, and various urban legends are popular. If you want to say that you are young The most discussed urban legend among people should be the owl girl on the West Fourth Ring Road."

Speaking of this, Qu Mingcong was startled suddenly, and blurted out: "Could it be because of the owl girl?"

Xiao Qiao also immediately thought of the story of the cat head girl, "Ah...it's very possible, if the popularity of the museum drops, it happens to be when the cat head girl becomes popular, and Dinna happens to die at this time. In the museum, Ding Zhaolin wanted to use Ding Na's death to make a fuss, so it was logical. Anyway, if he can't be saved, he might as well contribute to his story career—that's probably what Ding Zhaolin thinks, right? As long as Ding Na dies If it is too bizarre, people will think of the evil antiques in the museum and the crying in the middle of the night. These elements are enough to brew strange stories, but Ding Zhaolin did not expect that he would be backlashed by public opinion. The relationship between stepfather and stepdaughter is too sensitive. Netizens doubted Ding Na He was forced to die by his stepfather, and he never thought about the ghost stories in the museum."

Qu Mingcong was silent for a while, and said after a while: "It's a pity."

"What a pity?" Xiao Qiao asked puzzled.

"According to our reasoning, Ding Zhaolin should have acted impromptuly," Qu Mingcong said in a low voice, "He didn't have much time to prepare, so his methods must have been rough and left many traces. It's a pity...it's been more than a year, no matter how many traces there are. It has also been erased, like the curtain that disappeared, there is nothing we can do about it."

Xiao Qiao snorted coolly, "It doesn't matter. Not every truth must be revealed to the world. Mrs. Ding still points to Ding Zhaolin to take care of it. If this matter is really revealed, the couple will be very embarrassed."

Qu Mingcong laughed when he heard the words, "You think carefully."

"Hey, it's thoughtful." Xiao Qiao replied triumphantly.

Qu Mingcong laughed for a while, looked around, looked at the steps, the window, and the dim light outside the window, the smile on the corner of his mouth gradually disappeared...

Ding Na was already dead, and the cause of death was covered up by Ding Zhaolin. Ding Zhaolin's actions might not be considered a substantive crime, but it was hard to understand.

Qu Mingcong suddenly looked forward to it. If he wrote everything into an investigation report according to his and Xiao Qiao's reasoning, what would Ding Zhaolin's reaction be after reading it?Feel guilty?Will you feel guilty?
...I'm afraid not.

Ding Zhaolin's ability to hold the so-called million-dollar reward investigation so calmly is enough to show that he has never felt a trace of guilt, and maybe there will be an indescribable pride in his heart.

"Did you know? Some people prefer to obtain immortality in this way." Xiao Qiao said suddenly.

Qu Mingcong found that he and she had a tacit understanding, because he thought so just now.

"Life will eventually pass away, and only stories can be passed down for hundreds of thousands of years." He whispered, "Ding Na died at the age of 17, but Ding Zhaolin may have thought that he used his own method to give Ding Na a continuation of life, whether it is a crying girl or not. Regardless of whether it is the owl girl, the beginning of the legend is actually a tragedy.”

Xiao Qiao said lightly, "After hearing what you said, I suddenly feel that Ding Zhaolin is not so annoying."

Qu Mingcong shook his head, "It's still quite annoying. Even if the Crying Girl and the Cathead Girl are remembered, they only remember the grotesque and horror. As for what kind of person they are, who cares? In the final analysis, such' What's the point of being remembered?"

"But I also want to be remembered..." she murmured, "I want to be seen, I want to be heard, I want... Oh, forget it, it's boring."

Emotions invisibly entered a trough, and she didn't want to work hard to save it, so she avoided the topic, "Let's talk about the case."

Qu Mingcong was silent for a while when he heard the words, and said: "I think it's time to start writing the investigation report. I will write half of it tonight, and when I meet Tian Xiaojun tomorrow, I will write the remaining half and send it to Ding Zhaolin the day after tomorrow."

"I really want to know what Ding Zhaolin's expression will be when he sees the investigation report." Her mood improved immediately, and she smiled badly. "Or let me sneak into his computer and observe it then?"

"Okay." Qu Mingcong also smiled, "When you take a picture, I'll appreciate it too."

Leaving the museum, thin raindrops floated from the sky, mixed with snow particles and fell with the wind, and the dry dust on the road quickly turned into mud.

Qu Mingcong put on the hood of his jacket, stood on the side of the road, took out his mobile phone and called a car online.

"It's hard to get a taxi when it rains, and you have to wait in line, tsk." Qu Mingcong clicked a few times on the online car-hailing interface, "...wait slowly."

Xiao Qiao said: "You haven't ridden a motorcycle since the weather turned cold, ah~~ I miss motorcycles so much, it's like riding a roller coaster."

"Take you to ride the roller coaster tomorrow?" Qu Mingcong said.

"Hey, I just said it casually," she paused, "but you are so strange, why do you suddenly care about me so much recently?"

"Why else?" Qu Mingcong laughed, "You don't know? I like you."

Xiao Qiao snorted proudly.

Qu Mingcong said again: "I love you."

Xiao Qiao couldn't hum anymore, and frowned, "Hey, are you sick? Are you making fun of me?"

"No, I just thought of it suddenly. It seems that I have never said this to you formally."

A grain of snow fell on the screen of the mobile phone and melted quickly. Qu Mingcong carefully looked at the almost non-existent wet mark.

"Although I don't know your name or your identity, I think I should love you, um... I love you."
