Chapter 80 Cooperation
"What?" Luo Xun picked up the bouquet of flowers: "Are you talking about this?"
A gust of wind blew, Chi Xia's hair was blown up, and the smell of shampoo passed through Luo Xun's nose.
"When you were investigating me, I also investigated you." Chi Xia said confidently: "So I know about your sister's case."
Luo Xun looked up at the sky: "So, why is it such a coincidence that there is a bouquet of flowers just like yours at the door of my house?"
Chi Xia pulled the corner of his lips slightly, but did not answer his question: "I went to see a friend today, and he has been helping me investigate my parents ' affairs."
Luo Xun glanced at the flower, then picked it up and placed it beside his legs: "What did you find out?"
"He found out that five years ago, on the day my parents had the accident, my father received several bouquets of flowers, one of which was..."
She looked at Luo Xun: "It was sent by a person named Luo Lingfei. The unit of the sender is the archives department of the Dongzhou Chengnan District Police Station."
Luo Xun's mind was struck by lightning. He stood up suddenly and stared at Chi Xia.
"This is impossible." He suppressed his voice: "Chi Xia, this is impossible."
Chi Xia also stood up and looked at Luo Xun with clear eyes: "Yes, how could a person who died ten years ago send flowers to others five years after his death?"
Luo Xun felt that his breathing was trembling.
"So, I kept thinking about this on the way back. I couldn't understand why your sister was related to my parents, and they were murdered one after another. At this time, a child came to sell roses. I was thinking about your sister's case, so I bought a few pink roses. The red one was given to me by the child."
"Captain Luo, do you know what day it is today?" she asked again.
Luo Xun shook his head: "What day?"
"May 20th."
Chi Xia walked over and picked up the bouquet of flowers on the chair. She pinched the blood on the flowers with her fingertips and sniffed it: "Captain Luo, don't you think it's a coincidence? Someone used such a coincidence to pull us into the same boat. How could the time, place, and people be tied to the two of us?"
Luo Xun's Adam's apple rolled and his throat hurt.
"Before coming to Dongzhou, I was in the Qincheng Provincial Bureau." Chi Xia explained to him: "In most cases, I am mainly responsible for intelligence-related work, and occasionally I participate in some key and difficult cases. This is why my file is so simple."
"Five years..." Luo Xun's voice was hoarse. He wiped his eyes and asked, "Why did you choose to return to Dongzhou at this time?"
"Because we found Tu Guoan." Chi Xia said, "But you saw the result. I didn't get any clues from Tu Guoan. Instead, he died."
Luo Xun was silent for a while: "How much have you found out about the 1.25 serial murder case?"
"Except for some details that have not been announced internally, we basically know everything." Chi Xia told the truth.
Luo Xun suddenly snorted and laughed: "Do you know how much money I spent on this case?"
Chi Xia also laughed: "Compared to the 1.25 case, my parents' case probably wasted your time, right?"
"It's not like my work was in vain. It's just that until I came to you, I still only had a vague understanding of it." Luo Xun said.
He looked at Chi Xia and saw that she was looking up at the moon. Both of them were sweating after the fight. A few strands of hair by her ears were still wet, curling and swaying in the wind.
Her nose was very beautiful. The soft light shone on her face. Luo Xun saw her eyelashes blinking again and again.
The moonlight was clear and cold, and she was also clear and cold.
She said so much, but Luo Xun still couldn't understand her.
"Why do you want to hide your strength?" Luo Xun suddenly asked her.
Chi Xia smiled, and raised the corners of her eyes slightly: "I'm just an intern, I can't be so high-profile right after I get here, right?"
"You never thought about keeping a low profile in front of me."
Luo Xun exhaled, sat next to her, and looked at the road: "Luo Lingfei, my sister, I am sure she died in the 1.25 serial murder case ten years ago."
"I believe it." Chi Xia stretched out her legs and looked at her toes. "So, was today's incident a coincidence or was it done deliberately? Captain Luo, have you ever thought about it?"
"I never believe in coincidences," said Luo Xun.
Chi Xia's voice was soft but clear. She said, "I don't believe it either. Besides, I hate it when someone plots against me when I can't see."
She would feel refreshed only when she found out the ghost behind her that she dared not show her face to others and competed with him face to face.
But if the other party wanted to hide behind her, then she would use the method of hiding behind her, she couldn't let herself lose.
She hated being beaten in a game.
For a while, neither of them spoke, letting the night wind blow, the leaves above their heads rustled, there were few pedestrians on the street, the two of them sat on the chairs, the warm light shining on them.
After an unknown amount of time, the wind began to cool. Luo Xun turned his head to look at her and said, "Chi Xia, let's work together."
Chi Xia also looked over. She smiled, her eyebrows curved: "Okay."
She stood up and extended her hand to Luo Xun: "Captain Luo, it's a pleasure working with you."
Luo Xun looked at her hand and suddenly remembered that when he was interrogating Li Yiming, she had held his hand and typed a few words on his palm.
She then said: Calm down, don't be fooled by him.
He saw the scratches on her wrist and frowned slightly, remembering that he had used a lot of force when he clamped her hand and pushed it against the wall. The wall in the alley was rough, so it must have been the scratches just now.
Luo Xun grabbed her hand and found that the dust particles from the wall had seeped into her skin at the scratches.
Chi Xia was a little stunned. She struggled to pull her hand away, but Luo Xun didn't let go. He frowned and looked at her: "What are you doing?"
"I want to shake hands." Chi Xia said, "I don't want you to grab my hand."
Luo Xun rolled his eyes at her and lifted her hand: "It's scratched, there are dust particles."
He looked around and saw a vending machine. He stood up and walked over. He quickly took two bottles of mineral water and unscrewed the bottles to rinse the scratched area: "Go back and apply some medicine yourself."
Chi Xia hummed softly, followed her gaze, and saw his tightly pursed lips.
The thickness is moderate, the lips are rosy and full in shape.
Chi Xia licked his lips.
"Okay, let's go back first." Luo Xun stood up, screwed the bottle cap on and looked at her: "By the way, think about how we can cooperate. Besides, Chi Xia, you are still hiding a lot of things from me."
"Everyone has to have some secrets."
Chi Xia grinned, took out the candy Uncle Gen gave her from her pocket, and handed two to Luo Xun: "To start our cooperation, Captain Luo, I'll treat you to a candy."
Luo Xun recalled the sour lollipop he ate in the car when he first went out on a field trip with her, and his cheeks began to feel sour.
But he still took one and peeled it, then asked Chi Xia casually, "Why do you like to eat candy?"
Chi Xia was stunned for a moment, and some fragmented images flashed through her mind. It seemed that someone was handing her a candy with both hands, and she couldn't wait to take the candy and put it in her mouth.
It was lychee-flavored candy, the best candy she had ever tasted.
"Because it tastes good." Chi Xia also peeled one and put it in his mouth.
Luo Xun thought this answer was a little funny, but he didn't ask any more questions: "It's getting late, let's go home."
Chi Xia pointed at the bouquet of flowers and said, "Throw these flowers away. They are sprinkled with chicken blood. It's too unlucky."
Luo Xunshen looked at the bouquet of flowers, listened to her words, picked up the flowers and threw them into the trash can a few steps away.
Chi Xia smiled and waved to him: "Captain Luo, goodbye."
Luo Xun asked her from behind: "Should I take you home?"
"I'm not used to being sent away." She raised her arms and swung them, her voice chic and her posture graceful.
She is so beautiful, Luo Xun thought, even her back is beautiful.
