Detective Files II

Chapter 93 The Stray Bird
When Lu Xiangdong said this, there was a strange smile on his face.

Tian Mi stared wide-eyed, and asked, "And then?"

"And then? Then I lived a life like Harry Potter." Lu Xiangdong said in a joking tone: "My uncle took the living expenses from my mother and let me live in his house until I graduated from high school, and he never wanted to be with me again. If there was any relationship, he pushed me back to my mother. My mother had reorganized the family at that time and couldn't accommodate me as a son. In the end, I reached an agreement with her that she would help me pay the tuition and fees for my freshman year of college. Cut off contact with her and never disturb her life."

"She agreed? Your mother agreed?" Tian Mi's jaw almost dropped in surprise.

"In fact, she proposed this agreement on her own initiative." Lu Xiangdong replied: "In this way, I can finally take the college entrance examination like everyone else. For myself, this is a good thing. If my uncle doesn't push me to my mother If he doesn’t, he won’t be willing to pay my college tuition, and if I graduate from high school, I’ll have to work to make a living.”

"Then, you applied for the criminology major when you were taking the university entrance exam?" Tian Mi guessed, after all, this heavy topic actually started from the reason why Lu Xiangdong embarked on the road of criminology research.

Lu Xiangdong nodded: "Yes."

"Is there any necessary connection between this and your experience?" Tian Mi had just finished asking, and she had roughly guessed the answer in her mind: "Is it because you think that a crime completely overturned your original life? That group of criminals, maybe your childhood and youth will be very happy, so you want to study criminology and fight crime?"

Lu Xiangdong remained silent, neither affirming nor denying.

"You are talking!" Tian Mi urged him.

Lu Xiangdong looked at Tian Mi with a sly smile on his face: "So, you believed everything I said just now?"

"Of course I believe..." Tian Mi blinked her eyes: "What do you mean? Are you making up stories to trick me?"

"Should I say that you are naive, or that you are simple? Oh, or it is more suitable to say that you are just stupid - a single-celled animal and very stupid." Lu Xiangdong said coolly: "Do you think that life is a TV series? What kind of shit Can the plot happen?"

"Why make up stories to deceive people?" Tian Mi asked angrily.

"It's boring! I can't sleep at night, it's rare that a fool comes over to entertain me." Lu Xiangdong had a mocking smile on his face.

"Then why on earth did you choose to study criminology?"

"Not everything has a reason," Lu Xiangdong shrugged, "I just volunteered and was not accepted, and was transferred to criminology!"

At this time, Tian Mi suddenly remembered that Jia Yi had told her that Lu Xiangdong was a genius who was famous for his perfect scores in his thesis when he studied in the UK. Thinking of this, she couldn't help feeling stupid, if Lu Xiangdong really had such a miserable teenage years , How can it be possible to have money to pay expensive tuition fees and go to the UK for further study!

How abominable, this man took advantage of his sympathy, and was played by him again!

Tian Mi stood up and patted the ice and snow on the skirt of her clothes: "You are so boring, I don't bother to talk to you, if you want to spend the whole night outside basking in the moon, go ahead! I won't accompany you!"

"Hello!" Tian Mi had only taken a few steps when Lu Xiangdong suddenly stopped her, "Answer me a question."

"What's the problem?" Tian Mi stopped and turned around.

"If that story were true, would you feel more sympathetic to me?"

"What do you expect me to answer? Do you sympathize with you?" Tian Mi turned around, folded her hands and clenched her fists in front of her chest, frowning and pouting, and said in an exaggerated tone: "You have gone through so much! Really It's so pitiful! It's not easy!"

Her insincere attitude didn't seem to make Lu Xiangdong feel any displeasure, instead he raised his eyebrows and asked, "Isn't it?"

"Yes, and no!" Tian Mi put away her false expression on purpose: "The experience in your story is indeed worthy of sympathy, but if you really became what you are now because of what you have experienced character, I will despise you!"

"Why? Generally speaking, people who have tasted the cold and warm of the world are not qualified to have a surly personality?" Lu Xiangdong seemed to be fighting with Tian Mi on this issue.

Tian Mi shook her head: "Of course not! If a person has been living in a honey pot and doesn't know the cruelty of the world, so he only wants to get and doesn't want to give, or he only cares about himself and ignores others. Although this is very unflattering, it is understandable , and a person who has experienced the warmth and coldness of human relations is still like this, which makes people despise! Because he has experienced the pain caused by the indifference of others, but he continues to hurt others with his indifference, which is the same as knowing the law and breaking the law.”

"Shanggang is online." Lu Xiangdong chuckled, and waved at Tian Mi: "Go back, you are too noisy here."

"You begged me to stay here with you, and I'm still not happy!" Tian Mi made a face at him, and said in a dark tone on purpose: "Be careful not to be coveted by a female ghost passing by somewhere, and abducted to be a pawn." I lost my husband!"

"Thank you for your affirmation of my appearance." Lu Xiangdong sat back on the wooden pier with his back to her.

"Smelly!" Tian Mi curled her lips, wrapped her coat tightly and walked back, and stopped after taking two steps: "Strange, where is Heizi?"

"That dog?" Lu Xiangdong answered the question for her: "It sleeps in the barn on the left side of the house on the top of the steps."

"Oh my god, did you sleep so deeply at night?" Tian Mi rubbed her forehead, "It's because it bites so fiercely during the day, it seems to be doing its duty!"

After finishing the chat with Lu Xiangdong on a moonlit night, and returning to the relatively warm room, Tian Mi soon fell into a sleep until dawn.

When the old cow woman came to call the door in the morning, the three girls in the room were all asleep. The sudden knock on the door startled all three of them. Qin Lijuan and Piran sat up sleepily from the bed, and Tian Mi overreacted and quickly jumped off the folding bed, picked up her underwear and put it on quickly.

"Get up! If you don't get up, there will be no breakfast!" The old cow woman shouted outside the door.

Qin Lijuan looked at her watch and muttered angrily, "It's six o'clock in the morning again? This crazy person comes to call the door so early every day, as if someone doesn't like her breakfast!"

Piran rubbed his eyes and looked at Tian Mi who was already dressed, a little surprised: "Why are you moving so fast?"

Tian Mi smiled awkwardly at Pilan while arranging her hair: "I'm sleepy, Aunt Niu knocked on the door suddenly, I thought it was an emergency assembly!"

Anyway, Tian Mi is not interested in changing clothes and continuing to sleep in. She quickly tidied up her bed, went around to the kitchen at the back, washed up briefly in the kitchen, and then went straight to the main room where she had dinner the night before, and arrived at the main room At a glance, there were only three people sitting around a big round dining table, Niu Fufu, Mo Dou, and Lu Xiangdong.

Counting myself and the busy old cow woman in the kitchen, there are only five people for this breakfast.

"Aren't they getting up for breakfast?" Tian Mi sat down and asked the others.

"These young people are so lazy now! They can't even afford to sit in the sun!" Niu Fu curled his lips in disdain: "Please don't invite me when the meal is ready, and I don't get up until nine or ten o'clock every morning. !"

"College students now have this schedule, and they don't get up without morning class." Tian Mi explained for a few young people, and glanced at Lu Xiangdong by the way: "You are an artificial intelligence, don't you even need to sleep?"

"What do you mean?" Mo Dou looked at Lu Xiangdong and Tian Mi in a daze. It was obvious that someone slept very deeply last night, and he didn't even know that the temporary roommate who lived in the same room ran out.

Lu Xiangdong drank porridge with a bowl, but didn't speak.

In fact, when Tian Mi saw him in the morning, she was very surprised. Although she herself has been used to the life of getting up and running at 05:30 every morning in the past few years in the police academy, she often wakes up early and late at night because of the case after work, but she fell asleep last night. It's not good, I still feel a little tired when I woke up this morning, but Lu Xiangdong, who didn't sleep for half the night yesterday, still looked the same, although he was quiet, he was full of energy.

After breakfast, Niu Fufu and his wife were busy with their own affairs. Before the students got up, the three of them sat in the main room and chatted about the progress since arriving here.

"I chatted with Qin Lijuan and Pilan yesterday afternoon. Qin Lijuan didn't cooperate very much and seemed indifferent, but Pilan said that she didn't know Li Weiming at all, so I don't know why he ran away suddenly. " Tian Mi said to Mo Dou and Lu Xiangdong.

"Among the remaining six people, only Xing Junting and Li Weiming are the most familiar." Mo Dou was not surprised by her message.

Tian Mi was stunned: "How do you know? Didn't you say that you started talking to them today?"

"Last night, Xiao Yiran and Hao Peng couldn't sleep, so they came to invite Dr. Lu and I to fight the landlord," Mo Dou said to Tian Mi, "We just chatted while playing cards, and then asked about it! "

"This is what you need to learn," Lu Xiangdong raised his chin to Tian Mi: "The skills of conversation."

Tian Mi glared at him, didn't answer, and urged Mo Dou to continue.

Mo Dou said: "According to what Xiao Yiran and Hao Peng said, Li Weiming couldn't stay here since he got here. At the beginning, he thought Yunding Village was too boring, so he patted his ass and ran to the town without telling anyone. I couldn't find him, so I was in a hurry and looked for someone everywhere. Later, Niu Fufu reminded him that Li Weiming might have gone to the town to buy something. Then Xing Junting took Xiao Yiran and accompanied him to the town to find someone. Finally, they were taken from the town. I found Li Weiming in the Internet cafe on the Internet and brought him back."

"Did you run once before?" Tian Mi listened to Mo Dou's narration, and thought deeply: "Since he doesn't like staying here so much, why doesn't he just go back to City C? Why force himself to stay?"
