Chapter 118 Ge Jingyi
Five minutes later, Chi Xia and Baye sat on the sofa in the living room.
Luo Xun stood.
Mr. Ba came to help out, so he was considered a guest. Chi Xia, the host, had just gone through such a ordeal and had no energy to entertain him.
Luo Xun was embarrassed for a moment before he knew where he was. Seeing that Mr. Ba had winked at him, he cleared his throat and asked, "Chi Xia, do you mind if I go to your kitchen?"
"Captain Luo, please do as you please." Chi Xia raised his chin towards the kitchen, his voice weak.
Luo Xun poured a glass of water for each of them and went to the kitchen.
Chi Xia and Baye looked at each other openly, sizing each other up and down until they both laughed at the same time.
"You checked me."
Two more people spoke at the same time.
After a slight pause, they laughed together again.
Even with this brief and inexplicable observation , they already had some understanding.
"Eighth Master, I think we should have met earlier." Chi Xia smiled weakly.
Mr. Ba also smiled: "I strongly agree."
After she finished speaking, she extended her hand towards Chi Xia: "Ge Jingyi, brothers on the road, please give me face and call me Eighth Master."
Chi Xia shook hands with her: "Ge Jingyi, it's a good name."
"You might as well tell the truth." Ge Jingyi shrugged indifferently.
Chi Xia smiled: "Ge Jingyi is not Jingyi at all."
"You, Chi Xia, are also the heroine in a tragic novel, aren't you?" Ge Jingyi was not willing to be outdone.
The two laughed again, and Ge Jingyi suddenly stopped laughing: "Luo Xun said that this is your private matter and he is not convenient to tell me. I want to ask you, does this happen to you often or occasionally? Of course, you don't have to answer me if you don't want to."
Chi Xia glanced in the direction of the kitchen, then retracted her gaze: "Five years ago, it was only occasional, half a year or even longer, but starting two years ago, it happened about once a month, and recently..."
"Is it happening more and more often?" Ge Jingyi asked.
"Today was an accident."
Chi Xia shook his head and said seriously: "This is the second time in ten days, and the first time in the past two years. To be honest, there is something wrong with my brain."
Ge Jingyi was amused by her words, but at the same time she understood: "Then you should have medicine. I checked your body. If you left it alone, your body would have collapsed long ago."
Chi Xia smiled, a warm look on her face: "Yes, it's just that there was a problem with the medicine this time, and I don't have it on hand."
Ge Jingyi nodded: "In that case, I won't ask any more questions, but you can come to me if you encounter such emergencies in the future. To be honest, your condition today is very dangerous, and you can't use too much tranquilizer."
Chi Xia smiled, clasped his fists, and said in a weak voice: "Thank you for your help, Master Ba. I am very grateful."
"Thank me when you get better."
Mr. Ba smiled and looked towards Chi Xia's kitchen: "Captain Luo, are you making a full banquet in there?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Luo Xun came out with a bowl of noodles.
Chi Xia looked confused. Her nose was stuffy and she couldn't smell anything at the moment. She thought Luo Xun went to the kitchen just to leave space for her and Mr. Ba.
I didn't expect that he was going to cook.
Mr. Ba stood up and said, "You are very weak now. Eat something first and then have a good rest. Don't think too much for now. By the way..."
She opened the tool box and took out two bottles of medicine and two medical syringes: "These are two bottles of tranquilizers, left for you just in case, but I think you won't have another attack in the short term, feel free to call me if you have any problems."
Luo Xun placed the bowl in front of Chi Xia. It was a bowl of clear soup noodles with more soup than noodles. It seemed that he also picked out two small rapeseeds from the refrigerator.
"You eat yours, I'll take her there." Luo Xun stuffed the chopsticks into Chi Xia's hand.
Mr. Ba looked at him jokingly, and suddenly remembered something: "Chi Xia, do you mind if I add you as my friend?"
Chi Xia smiled and reached for his phone to add her.
Luo Xun said faintly: "Don't touch it, your phone is in the bureau."
Chi Xia opened her mouth slightly. Her reactions were a little slow at the moment: "Ah, so that's it..."
Mr. Ba chuckled and said, "You should have a good rest. Don't use your brain anymore."
"I'll give it to you later." Luo Xun said to Mr. Ba, "Okay, I'll take you out."
Mr. Ba shrugged indifferently: "It's fine as long as you can add it, no matter when. Chi Xia, I'm leaving now."
She waved at Chi Xia, took off her hair tie, shook her head, and let her long hair spread out: "My scalp hurts from all the pulling."
Chi Xia laughed at her: "Ge Jingyi, if you don't say the word 'old lady', this name will suit you very well."
Mr. Ba lifted his hair, showing his charm: "This name is reserved for my sweetheart to call, but you call it very nicely, so I like you very much."
Chi Xia smiled: "So you want to charge me for checking me?"
Mr. Ba laughed: "Anyway, it's Luo Xun's money that I spent. I can use that money to treat you to a meal later."
The two of them looked at each other and hit it off immediately.
Seeing her look like she had forgotten the pain after the wound healed, Luo Xun looked helpless. He glanced at Mr. Ba and warned her: "Ge Jingyi, are you leaving or not?"
Ge Jingyi really left this time.
When opening the door, Chi Xia also heard Ge Jingyi say to Luo Xun: "Please address me as Master Eight."
"Okay, Eighth Sister." Luo Xun said.
Seeing them go out, Chi Xia took a deep breath and exhaled, leaned on the sofa with his eyes closed for two minutes, and then went to eat the bowl of noodles made by Luo Xun.
She knew exactly what was in her kitchen. She hadn't bought all the seasonings, and there were very few vegetables.
But although this bowl of noodles was light, it was not bad. Chi Xia ate the noodles and drank all the soup. He felt a little better and leaned back on the sofa, closing his eyes and thinking about what he remembered this time.
It's still too little. If she had medicine, she could remember more.
But now her head was not feeling well, so she listened to Ge Jingyi and decided not to torture herself.
…
Luo Xun and Baye didn't take the elevator, but went downstairs.
"You said you would come to see me in person last time, but you didn't come."
Mr. Ba was a little unhappy: "Luo Xun, you don't have any clues, so you just want to trick me into checking Chi Xia for you?"
"I've been a bit busy lately."
Luo Xun's tone was not as gentle as when he was at Chi Xia's house: "And I was thinking about how to tell you about this."
Mr. Ba stopped and said, "Just say whatever you want to say. Don't you know me? I'll see the body or the body if I want to see it alive. As long as you give me a result, I will accept it. What is there to consider? I'm not a miserable heroine who will commit suicide after knowing the truth."
"He has a younger brother. Has he told you about him?" Luo Xun suddenly asked her.
The expression on Mr. Ba's face said it all. She shook her head and smiled bitterly, "No."
"Dead." Luo Xun paused: "Given his personality, it would be strange for him to tell you."
Mr. Ba was stunned for a moment, then continued walking with a sad look on his face: “So, you want to tell me that his disappearance is related to his brother’s death.”
"Very likely."
Luo Xun was two steps behind her: "Some time ago, I found the address of his hometown, asked some people, and found out his mother's whereabouts."
"He hated his mother so much that he wanted to kill her himself."
Mr. Ba said, "Why are you looking for her?"
"When his mother left, she took his brother away , but the two brothers had a good relationship since they were young and have always kept in touch."
"Oh, and then what?" Mr. Ba asked, twirling his fingers around his hair.
Luo Xun thought about it and told her: "Also, his grandmother is in the countryside. She is old and in poor health. She broke her leg before I went there. The villagers helped to send her to the clinic. I brought her to Dongzhou. She has been recovering in Dongzhou for some time. She should be fully recovered in a few days."
Luo Xun saw her raise her hand to wipe her eyes, and said in a muffled voice: "It's none of my business whether his grandmother is okay or not! Didn't I suffer so much from him? I owe him this, and I still have to take care of his grandmother after he dies, right?"
Luo Xun did not respond to her words, and continued: "The murderer who killed his brother has not been arrested until now. Think carefully about the last time you met."
Eighth Master walked down a few steps angrily, stopped on the stairs and stood against the wall. She took several breaths and finally seemed less angry.
"He disappeared half a month ago and said he was going out. I told you, I didn't ask much about what he did. He was not in a good mood after he came back, and he didn't say anything when I asked him. His brothers asked him to go out for a drink but he didn't go. He locked himself in the room for two days. I watched over him with my eyes wide open, but the bastard left without saying goodbye ."
After she finished speaking, she gnashed her teeth and said, "Nie Haishu, you bastard! You are a coward! I will tear you into pieces!"
She cursed Nie Haishu with a lot of nasty words, and this was the lightest.
Luo Xun didn't take it seriously: "He went out to visit his grandmother that time. That should be when he knew his brother was gone. I learned all this from his grandmother. After piecing together the situation, this is probably the current situation. I suspect he went to look for the murderer who killed his brother."
The two of them, one above and one below, stood there in silence for a long time.
After a long time, Mr. Ba raised his arm and wiped his tears: "Where does his grandmother live? Send it to me. I am not Nie Haishu, your conscience has been eaten by a dog! Okay, you don't have to send it."
She waved her hand and ran down quickly.
In the corridor, Luo Xun sighed softly.
