Chapter 131：

Early the next morning, two vehicles drove into the municipal parking lot one after the other.

Of course, the lamborghini has aroused another crowd of onlookers.

Upon arriving at the office, Xiao Xue greeted softly with two dark circles under her eyes: "Team Chu, consultant."

"How is it?" Tang Xi walked over.

"No." Xiao Xue shook her head and yawned again, with water mist in her eyes. "I checked. Since Ren Lan was in junior high school, he has not taken leave for more than three consecutive days. Case records are usually colds. Coughing, occasionally a few traumas, and then depression, nothing special."

"How about winter and summer vacations?" Tang Xi asked.

"Ren Lan is an orphan, and she took all the holidays to work." Xiao Xue replied immediately.

"Thank you." Tang Xi also sighed with emotion.

It is not so easy to check a person's life seamlessly, even as a computer expert. This girl must have stayed up all night last night.

"Okay, your head is about to fall into the coffee cup." Chu Li sighed, "Go to the duty room to lie down for a while, I will call you if there is something important."

"Thank you Team Chu." Xiao Xue smiled embarrassedly and stood up swayingly, floating away like a ghost.

"In that case, Ren Lan...it doesn't look like he has undergone a plastic surgery." Tang Xi said in doubt, holding his chin.

Not to mention the surgery on the eyes, the technique a few years ago, even if you get an eyebrow tattoo, you can't go out immediately.

"Listen to the reporter in a moment." Chu Li said.

"Well, I'll check something." Tang Xi waved his hand and walked into Chu Li's office next door.

This place has been cleaned up and turned into her office. Although the space is not large, it is neat and tidy. A set of desks and chairs, computers, telephones, printers, and various office supplies are all provided. There are two sets opposite the desk. Chairs, a filing cabinet and a wardrobe against the wall, waiting for the owner to fill.

Tang Xi put the things he had brought in at will - that is, a few spare replacement clothes, but after a long time, things will naturally increase.

Turn on the computer, the desktop is the police badge of the city bureau, except for the installed program, everything else is blank.

Tang Xi used her number to enter the police system intranet to inquire about Ren Lan's suicide case.

Sure enough, there was nothing extra on the case file, just a more detailed description.

However, when the personal data of Ren Lan and Tian Ye were transferred and compared together, she couldn't help but stunned.

Ren Lan, Tian Ye. If you look at it separately, there is nothing special, but putting the photos of the two together side by side makes you feel inexplicably...their eyebrows seem to have a half or six points.

An illusion?

"Su Huang, do you think they look alike?" Tang Xi muttered.

Su Huang appeared next to her, lying on the desk, and after looking at it for a while, he said, "Look separately, you won't think of the other person, but they look alike when you put them together. However, if you don't deliberately compare them, you must be familiar. Will be aware of it, right?"

"Ye Zhou?" Tang Xi raised an eyebrow.

"That scumbag used Tian Ye as Ren Lan's stand-in?" Su Huang blurted out.

"Who knows." Tang Xi stretched his hands. "Even if it is, this is also a moral issue and cannot be sentenced. Derailed... Oral education at most, what can I do with him?"

"So forget it then?" Su Huang was sulky.

"It doesn't work if you know it," Tang Xi said with a narrow smile.

Su Huang immediately understood and was satisfied.

After a while, an internal phone call came downstairs, and someone came.

Tang Xi turned off the computer, picked up the small bag and walked out, Su Huang stabs behind her, making Chu Li look at it a few more times.

Su Huang froze, after hesitating for a while, he slipped back into the bracelet.

very scary! There is probably a bonus in the police station, and the evil spirit on the Chu team is even more powerful!

"I am the most beautiful in the world" is a very young girl, in her early twenties, dressed very fashionable, and the bag she carries is also Chanel's new style this year. She has a delicate appearance, just being pressed by the thick makeup and dazzling diamond jewelry, her temperament seems a bit unsustainable. Of course, it may also be because of the first time entering the police station, instinctively nervous.

"Hello, I am Chu Li, the leader of the serious crime team, and you are Miss He?" Chu Li stepped forward and shook hands with her.

"Yes, yes." The girl replied awkwardly, and glanced at Tang Xi again.

"Um... He Xiaoman?" Tang Xi blurted out.

"Yes, Miss Tang still remembers me." He Xiaoman nodded.

"You know?" Chu Li asked in surprise.

"I met Mr. Pei at his birthday party last year, Mr. He's daughter from Konka Pharmaceuticals." Tang Xi replied.

To say that she can remember He Xiaoman, it is because Konka's He is always a single divorced mother. At that time, she tried to push her daughter to Pei Qingzhi's side, but He Xiaoman himself was timid and a little autistic. To be honest, although Mr. He is nearly forty years old, he is also bright and generous, but He Xiaoman is a bit poor in appearance.

Although it's not ugly, it just doesn't feel very attractive.

Tang Xi focused on He Xiaoman's eyes.

A pair of phoenix eyes, no flaws, is this the double eyelids that envy Ren Lan?

"What you have seen is just right, don't be so restrained." Chu Li waved his hand.

The three people sat down in the lounge. He Xiaoman sat on a single sofa alone, and Chu Li sat on the opposite side. Tang Xi poured three times the boiling water next to the drinking fountain, and then sat down on Chu Li's long sofa. On the other side.

"Miss He said that there are clues to Tian Ye's suicide?" Chu Li opened the notebook.

"Yes." He Xiaoman's sitting posture was a little stiff. He fiddled with the straps of his bag, and paused for a while. "Tian Ye and I are netizens. I have seen them several times offline. They are relatively familiar. But I don't know at home, I My mother wouldn’t let me make this kind of friends, saying that it would take me bad..."

As she said, her voice became lighter and lighter.

Tang Xi couldn't help rolling her eyes. Obviously He has a super aura, so how come his daughter is like a little white rabbit? Is Konka's future good?

"I also came today." He Xiaoman smiled awkwardly, and said again, "Actually, I envy Tian Ye. She can be so confident. Unlike me, she can't do anything well."

"Tian Ye is very confident? Always?" Chu Li confirmed.

"Yeah, full of vitality, as if nothing can afflict her, I really don't believe it, she... actually commits suicide, obviously..." He Xiaoman clutched the strap tightly, and said for a while, "Ming Ming She also said that she planned not to renew the contract at the end of the year, and wanted to change to another city to start from the beginning. I also said, invite her to dinner before leaving."

"Not renewing the contract?" Tang Xi's eyes dazzled, "Is there any reason for that?"

"No, it's just..." He Xiaoman thought for a while and said, "I feel that she is not happy at work these days, ah, yes, she once mentioned that the boss wanted to chase her, but the age difference was too much. No, she is not happy."

"Scumbag!" Su Huang cursed again.

Tang Xi held down the bracelet, only as if he hadn't heard it.

"Also, the day before she committed suicide, we also videod it. At that time, she told me with great interest that she hadn't returned home for several years and that she would go back to her hometown to accompany her parents this year." He Xiaoman said, she became excited too. , "How could she, she, she cut her wrists the next day to commit suicide!"

"Miss He, please calm down." Chu Li said.

"Ah, I'm sorry." He Xiaoman blushed, and subconsciously moved his posture.

"Miss He." Tang Xi suddenly said, "Excuse me, do you remember Ren Lan, the anchor of Star TV?"

"Ren Lan?" He Xiaoman was taken aback for a moment, with a dazed face, as if he didn't react.

"By the way, you seem to call her, Sister Lanlan." Tang Xi reminded him, thinking that Ren Lan might not necessarily broadcast live with his real name.

"Ah, it's the blue lily." He Xiaoman thought for a while before remembering, but still very puzzled, "I remember, she is also the anchor of Star TV, but I am not familiar with her, so she will send out bullet screens. , I occasionally made a small gift. I haven't communicated it in private, and it is not very clear to her herself."

"She is Tian Ye's predecessor. She was chased by the same boss from the same company she signed with. A year ago, she also cut her wrist and committed suicide." Tang Xi said.

"What!" He Xiaoman widened his eyes in horror, and said with trembling lips for a long time, "Si, committed suicide? I don't know... I really don't know. Xingchen TV hasn't made any announcements. At the beginning of the day, Blue Lily’s live broadcast room suddenly closed. There was only one explanation, that the contract expired. I always thought she would not do this. After all... something like that happened."

"Oh? What happened?" Tang Xi raised an eyebrow.

"Yes, nothing." He Xiaoman hesitated and said, "That is, at the time it was revealed that blue lily was plastic surgery and an artificial beauty. This made some male fans who liked her very dissatisfied and kept saying that they were Cheated, and there is someone who wants her to return the gift, anyway... it's a big noise, it's a month or two."

"Then did she have plastic surgery?" Tang Xi asked directly.

"I don't know." He Xiaoman thought about it for a while, "It's just that everyone said yes, probably yes... I like her eyes very much, and I asked, if I can, I, too, think a little ……Um……"

"Your eyes are pretty, you don't need to use a knife." Tang Xi said.

"I just... imagine my mother." He Xiaoman whispered.

"So, in the final analysis, no one can prove that Ren Lan had plastic surgery, but everyone said that, so you all believed?" Chu Li concluded.

"Yeah." He Xiaoman nodded.

"Do you know who said it in the first place?" Chu Li asked.

"I don't know. When I heard this, everyone knew it, and no one remembered who was the first to say this." He Xiaoman was helpless.

"This way... do you remember the fans who were making a lot of noise at that time?" Tang Xi said.

"I remember a few IDs are special, but..." He Xiaoman said, hesitating.

"What's wrong? We will keep the information confidential for those who provide the information, Miss He can rest assured." Tang Xi comforted.

"I'm not worried about this, but... I suddenly remembered." He Xiaoman thought. "At that time, most of the troubles seemed to be digital IDs, which are the default nicknames that have not been changed during registration. This is the case. Although there are a lot of fans, they are generally watched and rarely participate in interaction. After all, whether you want to interact with the anchor or brush gifts, I hope the anchor can remember himself. This..."

"Navy." Tang Xi concluded with certainty.

"Miss He just write a few things you remember." Chu Li pushed his notebook and pen over.

"Okay." He Xiaoman thought for a while, and carefully wrote two or three IDs, and they were all of the kind that was impressive at first sight, especially unconventional.

"If Miss He thinks of anything about Ren Lan and Tian Ye, please call this directly." Chu Li turned a blank page and wrote down the phone number of the crime team, tearing off that page and giving it to her.

"Okay." He Xiaoman took it with both hands and solemnly said, "I will think about it again, but... Tian Ye will definitely not commit suicide, you must check it out!"

"I tried my best." Chu Li could only say.

He Xiaoman's eyes were too pure, making him feel heavy. He knew in his heart that no matter what the reason was, on the file, Tian Ye's death could only be suicide. But... the man behind this scene, no matter who it is, whether it is a man or a ghost, must be punished due to it.

After sending off He Xiaoman, both of them felt a little sinking.

In the parking lot, Chu Li didn't move, took out a cigarette and lit it.

"It seems that Xiao Xiao checked it right. Ren Lan really hadn't had plastic surgery." Tang Xi said indifferently, leaning on her car, "Someone wanted to destroy Ren Lan, so she spread the rumors that she had plastic surgery and bought a navy army to build momentum. , Drove netizens who did not know the truth, and finally forced Ren Lan to commit suicide due to depression."

Chu Li spit out light blue smoke rings and didn't speak for a long time.

"Let Xiao Xiao look up, spread rumors and slander, and cause people to commit suicide...Although you don't need to be responsible for the death, at least you have to bear the crime of defamation?" Tang Xi gritted her teeth.

"The leader and planner can go to jail, but do you think...Ren Lan committed suicide because of them?" Chu Li asked.

"..." Tang Xi was speechless.

Who is forcing Ren Lan to commit suicide? Malicious rumors? Don't believe that she has hurriedly put aside Ye Zhou? A lot of booing fans? Maybe both. Normal people will not commit suicide just because one or two people are malicious to themselves. However, when everyone in the world is indifferently accusing and swearing at themselves, there are not many people who can smile and say it's okay.

You can blame Ren Lan for despising her life, but you can't blame her for not being strong enough.

The screen and the network cable hide their true colors, and no one knows whether the other side of the cold font is a human or a ghost.

And the rumors are like a knife, and they are ruined and destroyed.

"I'm leaving." Tang Xi opened the car door anxiously and lit the fire.

"Don't drive with emotions, pay attention to safety." Chu Li reminded.

"Long-winded!" Tang Xi gave him a blank look, and when he stepped on the accelerator, the car smoothly turned out of the parking space.

Although she was in a bad mood, she still had to abide by the rules. She figured out where to play a drag racing after the case was over, and arrived at Pei's downstairs in more than half an hour, exactly ten o'clock.

It was probably Pei Qingzhi who greeted him in advance, and the security guard downstairs looked at the license plate and directly led to the internal parking lot.

"Miss Tang, Mr. Pei has confessed that you can go up directly in his special elevator." The security guard said eagerly.

"Thank you." Tang Xi nodded and entered the building from the parking lot passage. Without disturbing the front desk, he went straight upstairs.

The top floor was quiet, and it was clear that someone could hear voices faintly coming from the small meeting room.

Tang Xi walked over and knew that the meeting hadn't ended yet, and he pushed the door directly into Pei Qingzhi's office. As expected, there was no one.

She threw the bag on the sofa casually, turned around, and came to the French window.

Looking back at the position of the office chair, and then at the window, if you look over there, the ghost of last night should have appeared here?

Of course, now, there is nothing.

Tang Xi thought for a while, condensed her spiritual power at her fingertips, and began to draw spells on the glass windows and walls.

When Pei Qingzhi came in, he almost thought he had gone to the wrong office.

The original clean and tidy office is now covered with incomprehensible spells from the ceiling to the floor, from the walls to the windows, like a haunted house.

"Okay!" Tang Xi finished the last stroke and finally stopped.

"Xiao Xi, you..." Pei Qingzhi stood at the door with a hard word on his face.

"Fu Zhen, don't worry, ghosts won't be able to come in your office in the future." Tang Xi turned her head and smiled.

"But..." Pei Qingzhi wanted to say, wouldn't people come in scared to death?

"It's okay." Tang Xi clasped her palms together and said "Hidden".

Numerous spells gleamed faintly, and then slowly disappeared, no traces were visible.

"When triggered, it will show up, and it won't usually interfere." Tang Xi said directly, "I've been a bit busy lately. I'll isolate you first, and then I'll take a look at picking out the ghost to see what it is."

"Are you investigating the live suicide case?" Pei Qingzhi walked in.

"Yes, I'm a bit concerned," Tang Xi said frankly.

"Do you care, is it haunted again?" Pei Qing asked.

"Human hearts are always scarier than ghosts." Tang Xi shrugged, returned to the sofa and sat down, and took out a jade safety buckle tied with a red string from his bag. "I have carved a few jadeites I brought back from southern Xinjiang Safe buckle, with defensive runes engraved on the reverse side. Although it is not an ancient jade, it does not contain much spiritual power, but it is better than nothing."

"Thank you." Pei Qingzhi also took it openly, comparing the length, and hung it directly on his neck.

The length of the red rope is just enough for the safety button to hide behind the shirt collar.

"If you have any questions, hide in the office and call me." Tang Xi urged.

"I'm very curious." Pei Qingzhi brought her a bottle of iced milk tea from the refrigerator, and said seriously, "You said your rune formation can keep the ghosts out, so now, where are the ghosts around you?"

Tang Xi froze for a moment, and laughed helplessly: "You are really sharp. Yes, this talisman can block ghosts, but it can't block people. Originally, I wanted to tell you."

"So, can the heavenly master bring in Li ghost?" Pei Qingzhi confirmed.

"Not necessarily." Tang Xi shook his head, "Li Gui can't pass through the talisman array, so the only way is to hide in the magical artifact and bring it in by a living person, such as my soul-raising bead bracelet, Chu Lishou Lingbei on the mountain. But if the magic weapon is not strong enough, it will be crushed along with the ghosts inside. However, it is best not to let people in casually."

"I see." Pei Qingzhi let out a sigh of relief.

"You have no other arrangements in the morning?" Tang Xi asked.

"No, there will be a meeting in the afternoon." Pei Qingzhi raised his wrist and looked at his watch, "I still have...three hours."

"Go, eat." Tang Xi picked up the bag and waved happily.

Seeing that her mood finally improved, Pei Qingzhi also smiled slightly, and sent a message to Xiang Jiuming, looking up: "Let's go."

"Well, take my car today?" Tang Xi turned the car key in her hand.

"Yes." Pei Qing said.

However, the security of the parking lot and the parking staff of Shengtang were still taken aback.

Mr. Pei actually rides in a car driven by a girl!

"You order." Pei Qingzhi pushed the menu calmly.

"Yeah..." Tang Xi glanced at the menu and said without hesitation, "Just get your new menu for this season. You don't need to drink a drink, just rice."

"Good Miss Tang." The waiter tidied up the menu quickly and served tea again.

It is said that the new autumn menu is launched. In fact, it means that there are four or five new dishes, all of which are seasonal ingredients in autumn, just one of each.

"Do you want to come to the old house this New Year?" Pei Qing asked.

"Your second and third uncles won't come back?" Tang Xi paused.

"Yeah." Pei Qingzhi sneered, "Last year, I dragged it out until the twenty-eighth before moving out, and I didn't have a smile when I came back to pay Grandpa New Year's greetings. Anyway, Grandpa has already divided the shares and real estate in his hand, leaving only the cash. Do daily expenses. They give up too. The company always has a place for them. Although there is no power, as long as I am still, Pei’s will not fall, and the annual dividend will be more and more. They are still looking forward to me. Good is better."

Tang Xi couldn't help laughing, and said, "You don't have to do anything, and you can lie down and take money. What's unsatisfactory."

"I don't care about spending some money to raise a few rubbish, as long as they don't make trouble for me." Pei Qingzhi frowned, "After all, they are all surnamed Pei, relatives of flesh and blood. I don't want to make it too ugly and make Grandpa restless in his later years. But Pei Qing and Pei Qinghong are like..."

"Do you want me to help?" Tang Xi said excitedly.

"How can you help?" Pei Qing was puzzled.

"It's like a tight band curse. I'll give them a curse. As long as you move your mind, you will get rid of your stomach." Tang Xi said seriously.

"Is there really that kind of spell?" Pei Qing was shocked.

"Fake!" Tang Xi rolled her eyes.

"..." Pei Qingzhi couldn't laugh or cry.

"However, there is a real way." Tang Xi snickered twice, "Let them not harm you or the Pei family, this can be done."

"Trouble?" Pei Qingzhi thought for a while.

"It's not too much trouble, just borrow a little blood from you." Tang Xi said.

"On the first day of the new year, they should all be there." Pei Qingzhi said, "My aunt has changed a lot in Australia this year. I heard that my uncle has also become harmonious, and my grandfather finally let go of their family to come back for the New Year. It happened in Australia. It's summer vacation, and the vacation is long, and Li Qingxue brothers and sisters will come back with them."

"New Year's Day." Tang Xi was a little embarrassed, "Your family gathering, shall I go?"

"Chu Li spent the New Year at my house many years ago and no one said he was an outsider." Pei Qingzhi took it for granted.

"That's it, that's OK." Tang Xi nodded happily without thinking too much.

"I asked someone to book a batch of fireworks, basically all the tricks." Pei Qingzhi said again.

"Speaking of fireworks, your old house is big enough to show you a wonderful one at that time." Tang Xi said mysteriously.

"I'm waiting." Pei Qing chuckled.

It just so happened that the dishes were delivered, and a plate of chrysanthemum crabs was golden, which caught people's attention.

"Now is the season to eat crabs, but the crabs are cold, don't eat too much." Pei Qingzhi warned.

"You're so long-winded." Tang Xi stuck out his tongue at him.

Pei Qingzhi couldn't help but laugh, always felt that eating with Tang Xi, even the dishes would be particularly fragrant.

Maybe... just by looking at her eating, she felt that it must taste very good, so that all the joy can be soaked in the eyes.
