deep white secret

Chapter 2 I won't cry
three days later.

Several people from the Jinghai Municipal Bureau’s Criminal Investigation Detachment gathered around.

"Team Xu, this is the result of the investigation we visited Xu Ling's company this morning. Xu Ling lives alone without a boyfriend, and her colleagues have not heard of her having any emotional entanglements. Everyone says she is an easy-going and cheerful person."

Xu Jie kept staring at the big screen, and then flipped through the forensic identification results:
Xu Ling was stabbed three times when she was killed. She died of sharp stab wounds and hemorrhagic shock caused by a ruptured spleen. The murder weapon was a long-handled sharp knife with a blade at least 10cm long.

At this time, the storm had passed, and only a few white clouds were stretched into thin threads floating in the blue sky. Looking out from the window on the sixth floor of the Criminal Investigation Detachment, it was pure and clear.

Xu Jie looked at Xu Ling's face that was scratched beyond recognition on the big screen, and was in a daze for a moment.

At this time, the cell phone rang suddenly, and Xu Jie saw that the caller was Song Bureau.

"Xu Jie, come to my office!"

Xu Jie put down the phone, and Shi Yihang came over with a smile:

"Captain Xu, what do I know? This morning I heard that the policewoman representing our bureau who went to the province for training and competition came to report. The rumor is that she wants to join our team."

"Our team needs female police officers?"

Xu Jie dropped the question and walked out of the office with long legs.

When Ning Xia first saw Xu Jie, he looked so indifferent and repulsive.

Although his mouth is curved and his face is soft, his eyes are sharp. He is wearing a white shirt and is different from the criminal investigation captain Ningxia imagined.

You know, Xu Jie is a legend spread in the police academy. He was an octathlete when he graduated. After joining the police station, he solved two major cases in a row. In the past few years, he has become a well-known criminal investigation pioneer in Jinghai City.

Being able to follow Xu Jie is Ningxia's ideal.

"Xu Jie, this is Ningxia who is new to our bureau and is assigned to your team."

"Song Bureau, I don't have time to bring in new people."

"Ningxia is the No.1 of our provincial team in this competition. You don't need to take it with you. After Lin Chengtian left the police force, I know that your team is short of people."

As he spoke, Director Song opened the drawer and took out a Chinese cigarette and handed it to Xu Jie.

"I'm quitting smoking."

"You boy!"

Song Ju's tone increased and he was ready to fight. Xu Jie's smile did not diminish and he looked at Ningxia.

The girl wore flat canvas shoes, jeans, and a black shirt. The cuffs of the shirt were rolled up, and her hair was in a high ponytail. She was full of youthful vitality.

But there was a sense of stubbornness in this vigor, his face was tense, his eyes were firm, and his black eyes were staring back at him motionlessly.

The girl is slender and tall. If she were to be described as having regular facial features and delicate eyebrows, she would be missing a trace of aura.

Xu Jie withdrew his gaze and said seriously to Bureau Song:
"If you cry, I'll send you back to Bureau Song!"

Xu Jie's voice was deep and mellow. After speaking, he turned around and left. Bureau Song stopped him:
"How is the investigation of Xu Ling's case going? This time, we have added more manpower to your team, so hurry up and solve the case. Ningxia, learn more from Team Xu, and he will teach you well!"

Ning Xia smiled when she heard Song Ju's last words.

After the door closed, Director Song took out his phone and sent a WeChat message:
Ning Xia has joined the criminal investigation team, don't worry, she is fine.

Ning Xia walked behind Xu Jie and looked up at him.

Xu Jie has a straight back, a clean white shirt, and black hair, with a strand of hair jumping out, resembling the seemingly gentle but actually strong person in front of him.

Ningxia whispered:
"Captain Xu, I won't cry."

Xu Jie turned around and glanced at Ning Xia. The two of them had reached the end of the corridor. A small window was half open, and the cool wind after the rain blew in slowly.

The long sunshine enveloped Xu Jie, clear and dry.

Xu Jie leaned casually on the window sill, crossing his long legs and facing Ningxia:

"Tell me about your first impression of Song Bureau!"

Ning Xia's eyes narrowed, and nervousness flashed across her eyes:

"I love police work, and I am proud of Team Xu. I ate plain porridge for breakfast. My left arm was injured when I went to the police.

There is a hidden light in Xu Jie's dark eyes:

"Explain it."

Ningxia raised her head, revealing a slender neck:

"I love police work. Because of love, Bureau Song can reach its current position."

Ning Xia's voice was pleasant, and she spoke very fast at this time, with a hint of nervousness. Xu Jie noticed that she took a deep breath faintly:

"I feel proud of Team Xu because the only photo on Director Song's desk is with Team Xu. The bookcase behind me is full of various trophies won by the Criminal Investigation Detachment."

Xu Jie smiled.

"I drank white rice porridge in the morning, because when I came to report, Song Ju was wiping his cuff with his head down, and some rice soup was stained on it."

“What about chronic illness?”

Xu Jie's voice was calm and his tone became brisk.

"Director Song's desk is neat and clean, but there is a brand-new blood pressure monitor on it. If he had a chronic disease, Director Song, who loves his work so much, would not put irrelevant things in such a conspicuous place on his desk."

Ning Xia raised her eyes and glanced at Xu Jie. His dark eyes were against the light, and Ning Xia couldn't see clearly what was behind them.

"So my analysis is that Director Song is still looking for the cause of the disease and is in the observation and testing stage. As for a happy family..."

Ningxia lowered her head:
"There is a hand-knitted woolen vest hanging on the hanger behind Mr. Song. He is still wearing it in June. My wife must be worried about the recent cooling down, because there is a cold feeling that makes my wife think you are cold."

Ning Xia said such a joke with a serious face, and Xu Jie's smile deepened.

"Lastly, your left arm is injured?"

The light in Ningxia's eyes flashed:

"Before I came here, I read Bureau Song's public resume on the Internet. In a kidnapping case in the 90s, Bureau Song subdued the gangster with his bare hands to rescue the hostage, and his left arm was injured."

Xu Jie pondered for a moment and said:

"The Criminal Investigation Team is different from other teams."

"I know, analyze the case and catch the murderer."

"Officer Zhang Lei in the team is very experienced. You can follow him."

"No, I want to follow Captain Xu."

Ning Xia had been standing opposite Xu Jie, and now she straightened her back and spoke firmly:

"If Captain Xu thinks that I am not qualified for the work of the Criminal Investigation Team because I am a girl, there is no need for Captain Xu to take special care of me at work. Therefore, Captain Xu please give me a chance and I will follow you."

Ningxia's eyes are not squinted, and every word is sonorous.

A ray of sunlight slanted through the window and hit her wheat-colored skin. The black shirt made her calm and aloof, while Xu Jie was bathed in the sunshine.

Xu Jie looked back at Ningxia.

Ning Xia was as calm as an endorsement, lacking a bit of the coquettish liveliness that a girl of this age should have. Xu Jie couldn't tell, he didn't have much contact with girls, so Ning Xia was different.

"Follow me?"

"Captain Xu is the most outstanding criminal police officer in Jinghai City. I want to learn from Captain Xu."

Xu Jie went to the Police University to give several reports and was baptized by the enthusiastic adoring eyes of girls, but Ningxia was different.

After saying the words "Follow Captain Xu", Ning Xia's eyes were clean and pure, with a hint of longing.

Xu Jie stood up:
"There is something wrong. Director Song drank milk in the cafeteria for breakfast. The rice soup on his sleeves accidentally collided with a policeman and spilled it. I was present at the time."

Ning Xia blinked, a blush appearing on her face.

"One month, I'll give you one month. If you can't stay in the criminal investigation team, you can come to Bureau Song yourself."

Back in the office, the three men heard the sound and looked towards the door. Ningxia met the gazes of the three men, but at first glance she looked at the photos projected on the big screen.

Shi Yihang was the first to applaud:
"Welcome new team members!"

Xu Jie walked to the window and turned to everyone:

"Ningxia."

Another finger lift:
"Introduce yourself."

Ningxia walked to the big screen in a few steps and looked around at the crowd:

"Ningxia, 24 years old, graduated from the police university, participated in the provincial training for two years, and now joins the criminal investigation detachment. It's a pleasure to meet everyone."
