Chapter 2205 Love Trapped in the Cycle of Fate 03
"Do murders often happen here?" Shao Huai couldn't help but ask, "This old man is too calm."
Xie Guan: "I've moved here four months ago and I haven't heard of it."
"Xie Xiaoguan, come over to my place and talk." Jinchen suggested.
"It is none of my business."
Jinchen hooked his foot on the staircase and stopped Xie Guan who was about to leave: "Going back to the convenience store? Aren't you afraid of running into the murderer if you're alone?"
Xie Guan glanced at him indifferently, "Curse me for having no business speaking directly."
"Maybe there really isn't much business today." Shao Huai couldn't help but say.
Xie Guan: “…”
Third floor, Room 306.
The room is not big, but it is tidy.
Shao Huai moved the Sanda gloves and boxing bandages on the sofa and motioned Xie Guan to sit down.
They all realized it later and felt a little... awkward. It wasn't that they didn't want to meet each other, but it was just awkward.
Jinchen was already making tea for himself. The tea was jasmine tea bags bought from a convenience store, and the packaging bag was still thrown on the coffee table.
"No need." Xie Guan lowered his eyes and rubbed his fingers unconsciously.
Shao Huai suddenly laughed out loud, and the awkward feeling disappeared.
Jinchen raised an eyebrow: "What are you laughing at?"
"Nothing, I just feel that someone is more awkward than me." Shao Huai leaned back on the sofa, his eyes moving back and forth between the two of them.
Jinchen didn't ask about Xie Guan's past, but went straight to the point and talked about this strange murder case.
Xie Guan breathed a sigh of relief.
ten minutes later.
Xie Guan felt that he relaxed too early.
Jinchen is such an idiot.
He listened to Jinchen's nonsense with a sluggish face.
"We both picked up a coin this week with a strange pattern. Maybe there is a connection," Jinchen said with great logic.
Xie Guan took a deep breath and tried to keep his tone calm: "The toy store next to the convenience store was demolished and a lot of coins dropped."
"Did you get into college by imagining things?"
Jin Chen clicked his tongue and raised his hand to touch his hair, "Xie Xiaoguan, you have a good temper, and your taunting skills are also good."
Xie Guan stood up suddenly, a little mad, "Are you sick?"
Jinchen sat there without moving, and took out a coin from his pocket with a smile.
"What about this one? Did it also drop from a toy store?"
The coin had a strange metallic luster under the light, and its pattern and color were exactly the same as the ones picked up by Jinchen and Shao Huai.
Xie Guan stared at the coin and his face gradually turned pale.
"I didn't pick it up." Xie Guan said, his eyes lowered, and it was unknown what he was thinking. "It wasn't me who picked it up."
Shao Huai sighed: "I didn't pick it up either. I found it in my hand early in the morning."
"It looks like we're all involved."
Jinchen threw the coin into the air, caught it steadily, and invited Xie Guan, "So, do you want to investigate the secret of this building together?"
Xie Guan turned and left, "You are police academy students, I am not, I am not that righteous."
"What if the murderer's next target is you?" Jin Chen continued, but did not stop him. He only fixed his eyes on Xie Guan's thin and tall back.
"We all saw the murder, and we don't know who sent him back to the room. The murderer doesn't know that we have forgotten what he looks like."
Jin Chen sighed softly, "With your small body, you are not even big enough for the murderer to kill you once."
Xie Guan: “…”
Xie Guan’s back paused.
He stood there thinking for a few moments, then said softly, "I live in 301."
After saying that, he left.
"Oh, what's going on?" Shao Huai fell onto the sofa and stared blankly at the shabby ceiling.
Sometimes my thoughts linger on the corpse and the murder, sometimes I think of the past.
"Tenko, you said..."
Shao Huai suddenly sat up and said, "The murderer can't be Xie Guan."
"No." Jinchen said firmly. He sat lazily and put another mint candy into his mouth.
"Don't mention the past in front of him. He doesn't like to hear it, and what we know may not be true."
"Yeah, I understand."
Shao Huai put the wrench and tools he picked up in his coat on the coffee table and said, "Let's take care of this first. This is weird."
The more sinister thing is yet to come.
Jinchen responded in his mind and turned to look at the heavy rain outside the balcony window.
The rainstorm was so heavy and so sudden, as if it was eager to wash away something.
More importantly, even he couldn't see through the fog and see the buildings and streets outside the building clearly.
[Ghost~~~hit~~the~wall~] Zero rolls in the eerie and sinister background music.
Jinchen: "..."
【Keep it to scare yourself. 】
There were screams outside the house again.
"Fuck, again."
Shao Huai stood up in fright and looked at Jinchen.
Without giving it much thought, both of them rushed out and followed the sound.
Jinchen ran to the corridor on the fourth floor and saw a handsome young man being beaten by a strong man. He stopped for a moment and let Shao Huai walk in front.
"Go save people."
Whoever owns the wife should save her.
Xu Yi was being pressed against the switchboard by a shirtless muscular man.
The cat in his arms fell to the ground. The kitten's screams mixed with the drunken curses of the man, "You're fucking ripping off my money!"
"let go!"
Shao Huai grabbed the strong man's Adam's apple from behind and knocked him down with his knee to the lumbar spine.
Xu Yi staggered to safety, and a silver coin fell from his pocket.
Jinchen walked over and picked it up.
Xu Yi had already fallen to the ground, gasping for breath in fear.
"Is this yours?" Jinchen asked.
Xu Yi shook his head. "I...I found it at the checkout counter at the pet store last week."
"Every time I tried to throw it away, it would somehow find its way back into my pocket."
Jinchen leaned against the fire hydrant, rolling the mint candy around on his tongue. "What a coincidence, the three of us also picked up one each."
He took out his own coin and threw it into the air, and the coin drew an arc.
Xu Yi blinked blankly, "You... three?"
"Oh, there's another person who I'll introduce later. He's angry with me." Jinchen shook his head and sighed.
“…Thank you.” Xu Yi nodded slightly, not understanding why.
"Give me back the cat!" The sturdy man was beaten so hard that he begged for mercy. He was about to run away, but came back angrily to demand the cat bag.
Xu Yi hesitated for a while, but still gave it back to him, and couldn't help but remind him: "It's very dangerous recently. If you don't want to be treated, don't let the cat run around..."
"It's none of your business!" the sturdy man turned and ran.
Jinchen raised an eyebrow, "It's been dangerous recently, what do you know?"
Shao Huai walked over and looked at Xu Yi with confusion and caution.
