Huo Xiake couldn't help, and said to Shen Man: "I believe in the police, they will definitely investigate the truth, if you are innocent, I will come to pick you up!" ”

Shen Man was arrested in a police car and taken to the police station for interrogation. Huo Xiake shrugged his shoulders and said to Hua Jiao, "Let's go home." ”

Hua Jiao asked rhetorically, "Is this the end?" I thought there would be some unexpected reversal. ”

Huo Xiake rolled his eyes and said, "You have read too many detective novels, how can the real world be so exciting." ”

However, reality is often more absurd than fiction, and soon the results of the police investigation come out. The medical examiner dissected the body and determined the time of death. At that time, Shen Man was still hundreds of kilometers away, and there were a large number of witnesses and evidence that could provide alibi evidence. And after a polygraph test, it was proved that she had nothing to do with Zhang Liming's murder, so she was quickly ruled out of suspicion.

Then, the captain of the criminal investigation team personally sent Shen Man to Huo Xiake's house.

At that time, Huo Xiake was reading a book, and when he found that the criminal investigation captain and Shen Man came to the door, he was obviously stunned.

The captain of the criminal investigation team kept laughing, and Shen Man was still wearing the small and fresh skirt from the previous days, but her face was tired and haggard, which showed that the life of detention made her physically and mentally exhausted.

Huo Xiake is Shen Man's senior sister no matter what he says, and when he saw the poor girl like a deer, she suddenly softened her heart, and while letting Hua Jiao get food, she beckoned Shen Man to take a hot bath first to get rid of fatigue.

Shen Man nodded, and followed Huo Xiake to the bathroom on the second floor to take a bath.

Taking Shen Man to take a bath, Huo Xiake hurriedly went downstairs and asked the criminal investigation captain: "What do you mean, why did you send Shen Man over?" Isn't she suspected of murder? Is there enough evidence to let her come over and take a decapitation bath? ”

The captain of the criminal investigation team and Huo Xiake are old acquaintances, and they are not polite, and sighed: "How can there be such a custom, it is not in line with discipline." To tell you the truth, her suspicion was ruled out. ”

"Then you should also send it back to your hometown, send me here?" Huo Xiake continued to ask.

The captain of the criminal investigation team turned grim and said, "But it's still very strange, what is going on?" Intuitively, I had a vague sense that there must be something wrong with this. ”

"But what does this have to do with being sent to me?"

"Yes! Of course there is, and it has a lot to do with it. The criminal investigation captain stared wide-eyed and said nonsense, "First of all, Ms. Shen Man has been released from suspicion, and it is inconvenient for our police to continue to monitor her, but you, as a private person, have the obligation to assist the police in handling the case; Secondly, your chivalrous store has just opened, this is the first business, and it hasn't received money yet. It doesn't matter, our police pay for it, please assist us in the investigation, it's okay. ”

Huo Xiake was originally trembling with anger, but when he heard the money, he suddenly softened, patted his chest and shouted: "Okay, no problem, assist the police, this is a foreign object as a citizen." By the way, how much? ”

The captain of the criminal investigation team smiled: "The money will definitely not be short of yours, of course, according to the results, there are differences in the way of calculation." For example, if the case is solved, of course there will be more, and if the case is not solved, of course there will be less. ”

"Okay."

Huo Xiake continued to ask: "By the way, do you have any clues about Zhang Liming's case?" ”

The captain of the criminal investigation team restrained his smile and said, "Whoever passes by, there must be left." Now that Zhang Liming's body has been discovered, the direction of our investigation has been determined, and the clues we have obtained have increased a lot. It is initially suspected that Zhang Liming's death is related to a pyramid scheme. ”

Huo Xiake has been a police officer and has handled cases related to pyramid schemes, and knows that some pyramid scheme organizations use violence from time to time in order to control personnel, resulting in some deaths and injuries.

She nodded and said, "Okay, I have news to tell me, and it will also help me discover the suspicions of Shen Mantuomeng." ”

"I'll leave it to you." The captain of the criminal investigation team nodded at Huo Xiake and left No. 221 Shell Garden.

Huo Xiake went upstairs, heard the sound of water in the bathroom, and shouted inside: "Senior sister, I see that you don't have any clothes, so use mine temporarily." I put it on the hanger in the locker room, you take it yourself. ”

After a moment's hesitation, Shen Man said in a low voice, "Thank you, Senior Sister." ”

Huo Xiake took her underwear, thought about it, and put it down again, obviously she was too tall than Shen Man, and her size was too large, so she took a sports underwear with better elasticity, and took a nightgown and put it on the hanger in the locker room.

The woman took a bath slowly, Shen Man took a bath very slowly, and it took an hour to come down, although it seemed to eliminate the exhaustion, but her expression was still very depressed.

Hua Jiao prepared milk oatmeal porridge and baguette slices for Shen Man, she did not refuse, and ate it slowly.

After eating, Hua Jiao took off the bowl and spoon to clean it, and Huo Xiake said: "Senior Sister Shen Man, you see that it is so late, presumably you don't have a suitable place to stay, it is better to make do with it for the time being, and live here for Senior Sister." ”

Shen Man raised her head, her big deer-like eyes looked at Huo Xiake, accompanied by thin cheeks, especially pitiful, she said, "Thank you, senior sister." ”

Although he didn't say much, he already expressed his acquiescence.

So Huo Xiake took her upstairs and went to her room.

After entering, there was only a large bed inside, and Shen Man couldn't help but be stunned. Huo Xiake rubbed his hands and said embarrassedly: "Senior sister, don't look at this villa, it's very big, in fact, there are very few beds, only two." This one is mine, and the other one is Hua Jiao's - it's the man. You're not going to look for Chinese peppers, are you? So you can be wronged and make do with me in the same bed. Fortunately, the bed is big, and I sleep very well, I don't move, and I don't snore. ”

Shen Man nodded silently, sat down at one end of the bed, took off his slippers, lifted the quilt and lay in, never moving again.

Huo Xia looked at it objectively for a while, and confirmed that Shen Man would not be stupid, so he left the room, and beckoned Hua Jiao, who had already washed the dishes and spoons and went upstairs, to pay attention to the movements inside, and he went to the bathroom to wash. She quickly finished the cleaning task, and came out to see Hua Jiao leaning against the wall and paying attention to the movement inside, and glanced at him, who bowed slightly, indicating that everything was normal.

Huo Xiake opened the door and entered the master bedroom, walked to the other side of the big bed, and looked at Shen Man, who was lying on his back with his eyes staring, tears in his big fawn-like eyes.

Huo Xiake shook his head slightly, lifted the quilt and got in.

At this time, Shen Man turned sideways, looked at Huo Xiake, and asked, "Senior sister, why did I find Li Ming, but I felt empty in my heart?" ”

Huo Xiake sighed and said: "Before you find it, there is always a trace of thought, thinking that he is still alive, but if you really find it, it also means that you have lost him forever, so you will feel empty in your heart." ”
