Chapter 2211 Love Trapped in the Cycle of Fate 09

Xu Yi: "Room 204 is shared by three or four hooligans. They don't come here often. When they come, they ask hostesses to come... They also often go in and out of convenience stores. I was unlucky enough to run into them at the door of a convenience store. I almost called the police out of fear."

Xie Guan also nodded to show his agreement.

“They’re dirty.”

He has a lot of opinions.

"In every sense, I have to postpone closing time to clean up every time I come here."

Shao Huai: "Can't get out?"

Xie Guan’s face turned even more sour: “One of the thugs is the boss’s stupid son.”

Jin Chen sighed, leisurely admiring his expression, but his tone was inexplicably doting, "Look how wronged our Master Xie is."

They used to like to tease Xie Guan by calling him "young master", and of course he was a real young master from a wealthy family.

Shao Huai looked over in horror, thinking, didn't we agree not to talk about the past? He's bankrupt and still calling me Young Master, isn't this just poking at the wound?

Then he saw Xie Guan glaring at Jinchen, but he didn’t look very angry, more like he was furious.

Shao Huai: “…”

Sure enough, they are still the familiar pair of bickering lovers.

Don't get involved with this "three" of his.

Finally, the first floor.

Xu Yi circled the number 104 with a pen, "There's a strange little girl living in number 104, very... weird. Anyway, if we go check it out later, you'll know when you see her."

Xu Yi even shook his shoulders and finally said, "Grandma Wu Lan lives in Room 106. She used to be the apartment manager and she's very enthusiastic."

When Shao Huai heard him finish speaking, he patted the chair beside him and said, "Xu Yi, come and sit over here, and call me brother."

Xu Yi was confused, "...I have already graduated from college, I am older than you."

"You look like a high school student, what's wrong with calling me brother?" Shao Huai put his hand on the chair behind him, "In this building, it's just the two of us and the two of them now."

Never be that “San” who gets slapped in the face again!

Xu Yi didn't understand and touched the tip of his nose, "...Oh."

"elder brother."

He is easy to talk to.

Shao Huai was so happy that he broke the yogurt into two pieces and gave him two bottles.

Jinchen: "..."

Jinchen looked down at Xie Guan beside him and sighed, "Oh."

Xie Guan's mouth twitched slightly, and his tone was light, "You dream faster."

Jinchen immediately pulled Shao Huai up and said, "Stop talking nonsense and get down to business."

"You and Xu Yi check from the 7th floor downwards. I'll go to the convenience store with Xie Guan first and check from the bottom up."

Xie Guan was startled, "Yes, Zhao Chunmei will come to the convenience store to buy bleach today."

The four-man team then split into two groups and conducted separate investigations.

-

Jinchen and Xie Guan went downstairs alone.

Not sure if it was intentional or not, but Xie Guan always felt that Jinchen walked too close to him, rubbing his shoulder several times at the corner of the stairs.

Until they met again, Xie Guan was sure that Jinchen did it on purpose.

Just as he was thinking about whether to stop and beat this guy up, Xie Guan, with an expressionless face, suddenly had his hand grabbed.

"Xie Xiaoguan, what I just said is true."

Xie Guan stopped walking, "…what?"

"I have to watch over you and protect you. You can't commit suicide or be bullied. Neither of them works for me."

Jinchen's expression was more serious than before. He pinched Xie Guan's cheek with his fingertips and said, "Try to trust me, ok?"

Xie Guan frowned unconsciously, his heart suddenly tightened, "... idiot."

With his ears red, he walked downstairs by himself, "Don't try that on me."

[The villain's heart rate is detected +5, totaling 13! 】

Hearing some mischievous chuckles behind him, Xie Guan felt his neck behind his ears go numb, and he walked faster with a sense of embarrassment.

Convenience store.

When the glass door of the convenience store was pushed open, it made a harsh sound when it hit the ground.

Zhao Chunmei came in with a basket of vegetables, her back hunched. She smelled strongly of fish, as if she had just come back from the fish market. Her dark apron was stained with dark brown stains, and every step she took left wet footprints.

She noticed Jinchen and frowned. It was obvious that she rarely saw strangers. Her cloudy eyes looked back and forth between Xie Guan and Jinchen.

"Xiao Xie, do you have bleach?"

Her voice was hoarse when she spoke.

coming.

Xie Guan's expression was the same as usual. He hummed, "Yes, Aunt Mei wants to use it for something."

"It's for disinfection. It needs to be disinfected properly. The fishy smell is too foul."

As she spoke, her eyes fell on Jinchen. The wrinkles at the corners of her eyes deepened as she squinted. She couldn't help but ask, "Who is this young man..."

It seems that people who have stayed in this building for some years will be extremely wary of obvious unfamiliar faces.

Jinchen noticed this and continued the conversation.

"I'm a policeman." Jinchen stood up straight and put his right hand on Xie Guan's shoulder. The warmth of his palm could be felt through his shirt.

Xie Guan was slightly startled and glanced sideways at Jinchen.

Jinchen stroked his shoulder, and Xie Guan stopped looking and lowered his gaze indifferently.

Zhao Chunmei was obviously stunned, and her fingers, covered with small scars, tightly grasped the vegetable basket.

"Police... Is this true? What are the police doing here?"

Jinchen casually took out his police academy student ID from his pocket and showed only the back to Zhao Chunmei.

Zhao Chunmei really didn't understand, but her condition was obviously even more wrong.

Jinchen deliberately emphasized his tone: "There was a case nearby, I came to find Xie Guan to find out the situation."

He took Xie Guan into his arms and said, "I also want to thank you for taking care of Xie Guan's business. We have a very good relationship. If you need any help, you can also come to me directly."

Xie Guan felt the strength from Jinchen's palm and silently swallowed the words that were about to come to his lips.

The next moment, Jinchen noticed that Zhao Chunmei's eyes suddenly became flustered, as if she was pricked by something, and she quickly looked away.

"Well, I'm really sorry to trouble you, police comrade..."

Zhao Chunmei's voice became even hoarser.

"Auntie Mei, bleach." Xie Guan handed her the bleach that had been replaced in advance, which contained replaced water mixed with regular disinfectant.

Zhao Chunmei's fingers trembled slightly when she took the bleach.

She walked quickly to the cashier counter, the plastic bag in her apron pocket rustling, leaving a stronger fishy smell fermenting in the air.

Jinchen watched her leave, lowered his head and whispered in Xie Guan's ear: "There must be something wrong with Zhao Chunmei, why don't we check her out first."

Xie Guan: "...You keep hugging me."

As the two were about to leave, the door of the convenience store was pushed open again.

"Xiao Xie, your delivery."

Han Dong limped in from the door, holding several express packages, his raincoat almost soaked.

Jinchen looked over and suddenly frowned.

This raincoat...

This isn't the same set I saw last night. Why does it feel so familiar?

In a flash, Jinchen remembered the figure running into the rain on Wednesday and stood up straight immediately.
