A little weak chicken came to Dali Temple

The Hua family couple couldn't bear such a blow. They both fell ill and almost didn't make it through the spring. Later, the couple took their son and left the capital and went to the south thousands of miles away, never to return to the capital again.

And such a terrible thing happened in Pianwa Alley. People in the entire alley were so scared that they moved away, and even many people nearby moved away. For a time, this place became a desert place in the capital.

Bijia, that cannibalistic old woman, may be a little crazy, but according to Yeats's final investigation, they learned that she practiced an ancient witchcraft and wanted to use ancient witchcraft to protect herself from illness and seek immortality.

From ancient times to the present, countless people have proven that there is no immortality at all, and there is no flesh and blood that can cure all diseases. It is just abnormal.

Yeats had handled many cases, but every time the victim was a child, he would always feel heartbroken and sad, and he would even be in a low mood for many days.

Since he didn't receive the cough ointment from Yeats the next day, Zhao Bai was very disappointed and never took the initiative to say hello or chat with him again.

Yeats was so depressed because of the Miao'er case that she didn't even notice the details that Zhao Bai didn't take the initiative to talk to her. She sat at her workstation and sorted out the documents at hand.

Teng Chong, Zhang Jin and others went out to work, and Qin Dachuan also went out for a walk. Only Ye, Zhao and Yang were left in the official room.

Ye and Zhao didn't speak, and Yang Fuquan didn't speak either. A copper nine-link ring was worn and thinned by his play, and he was still turning it over and over with relish, enjoying it alone.

"How did you guess that the little girl was eaten by the old woman?"

Suddenly, in the quiet office room, Zhao Bai broke the silence, and even Yang Fu, who was playing the Nine Links, turned to look at him.

And he stared at Yeats in front of him.

Having just filed all the documents on Miao'er's case, Yeats turned his chair to face backward when he heard Mr. Zhao's question, "At that time, it was speculated that the old woman might have killed Xiao Miao'er because of some misunderstanding or hatred."

"Then how did you figure out that Xiao Miao'er was killed?" Zhao Bai was very curious.

Yeats sighed, "I was practicing by the garbage dump how Paihuazi came in from the alley and kidnapped the little girl, and the stray dog ​​in Tile Alley kept chewing bones by the garbage dump. I often handle cases, and I still know the bones of various parts of the human body. As I know better, the stray dog ​​gnawed on a piece of tibia that day. Because the tibia was so small, it looked like a pig bone at first glance, but I knew it was not. It was small because it was the calf bone of a child."

When the Miao'er case was mentioned again, Yeats couldn't help but feel sad.

Yeats seemed to be immersed in this case and couldn't help himself. Did he forget to bring him cough ointment on purpose?Isn't it because Pei Jingning said something to her when she doesn't take the initiative to talk to him recently?
He quietly observed Yeats again and asked tentatively, "Do you know about human bones?"

"Yes." Yeats nodded. As a criminal investigator, he dealt with forensic doctors every day, so of course he knew this.

"How many bones are there in the human body?" he asked casually, paying attention to Yeats's expression.

"There are 206 adult bones in total, divided into four parts: skull, trunk bones, upper limb bones, and lower limb bones. But children have more bones than adults, there seem to be 217 to 218 bones."

Zhao Bai had never dabbled in this area of ​​knowledge. Seeing that Yeats showed no signs of alienation, he felt relieved and relaxed, with a long-lost smile on his sickly pale face.

So curious.

"Aren't they all human beings? Why do children have more bones than adults?"

Yeats said, "Because a child's sacrum has five pieces, which will merge into one when they grow up. There are also four to five pieces in a child's coccyx, which will merge into one when they grow up."

Zhao Bai listened with great interest, "Is it so magical?"

"Yes." Yeats's depressed mood was diverted by the curious Zhao Bai, and she continued, "There are also two iliac bones, two ischial bones and two pubic bones in children. When they grow up, they will merge into There are 2 hip bones, so in total, children have more than ten bones than adults."

"That's it." Zhao Bai cupped his hand, "Sure enough, there is no end to learning. I have learned a lesson."

Yeats smiled modestly, "You're welcome, Mr. Zhao."

After saying that, he turned his chair and was about to get up to have lunch. As if he suddenly remembered something, he turned around and said, "Mr. Zhao, your cough is gone. I'm sorry. I was busy with Miao'er's case at the time, so I forgot to bring it to you." Plaster." "It's okay, it's fine. It's fine." It turned out that she was really busy and forgot, and she didn't mean to alienate him. When Zhao Bai heard Yeats' explanation, his whole body relaxed completely, his spirit was lifted, and his whole body quickly became clear. He stood up with a smile and said, "Come on, I'll treat you two to lunch today."

"no, I'm fine……"

"Are you polite to me?" Zhao Bai looked angry on purpose.

Yeats had no choice but to accept his affection, "Then I'll invite you next time."

"Okay."

Yang Fuquan listened with great interest to the human bones, and when he heard that someone was inviting him to dinner, he jumped up and down with joy and rushed out of the official room.

In late February, the sun gradually became brighter, and the buds bursting from the branches of the deciduous trees in Dali Temple were already green and full of life.

"March is coming soon, little brother Ye, where are you going to go for a spring outing?"

On the way to the dining hall, Zhao Bai chatted with Yeats.

"Let's go to the suburbs." Yeats didn't think about where to go. Whether it was now or in the previous life, she didn't seem to be good at it. Anyway, wherever her colleagues told her to go, she would just follow them.

Seeing that she had no plans, Zhao Bai suggested: "It's better to go..."

Before he could finish speaking, Bai Lang appeared at the intersection of the corridor, "Ye Pingshi, sir, please—"

During meal time, Pei Shaoqing invited her, and anyone with a discerning eye could see that this was a pretense of serving her privately.

Yeats: ...

Master Shaoqing, please don't be so obvious. How can she face Xiao Quanzi and Master Zhao? It's so embarrassing.

Yang Fuquan has now accepted this kind of "self-interest" and said with a smile, "Brother Ye, go ahead and do your work. I will go to the canteen to eat by myself." After that, he jumped up and left.

Zhao Baigang's bright face gradually became lonely in the sunshine.

When Ye Zhi was thinking about how to explain, Teng Chong ran over from outside and said, "Brother Ye, there is a case... there is a case..."

"Where?" The case relieved Yeats' embarrassment.

"Tianxiang Tower."

Yeats quickly raised his hand to Bai Lang, "I'm sorry, Guard Bai, please report back to Shao Qing. My subordinate has a case and has to go to work first." After saying that, he asked Zhao Bai if he wanted to go with him.

Zhao Bai held back the smile that was about to overflow and said, "Of course." Then he cupped his hands towards Bai Lang and turned around to leave.

Yang Fuquan, who hadn't run far yet, ran back and smiled at Bai Lang, "Guard Bai, I'm going too."

In the blink of an eye, the three of them disappeared in front of Bai Lang.

Bai Lang...

Your Excellency, seeing that Ye Pingshi has lost his taste recently, specially ordered good soup and dishes from Fengde Building, why did he just run away?How can he interact with adults?
