Chen Xia

Chapter 171 The first clue

The vase was bought by Jiang Chen when he lived in the apartment and has been placed in the next room. It is a unique style that the merchant specializes in. Ye Mian likes it very much.

It was half filled with water. When she touched it, it swayed greatly and most of the water spilled on the table.

Seeing the bottom of the bottle spinning in a circle, it was about to tip towards Ye Mian's bed and the laptop on the bed.

Ye Mian's body was still blocked by the chair.

She didn't know whether to protect the cup or the computer for a moment.

But when I think about the study materials on the computer.

Her body moved faster than her brain, almost subconsciously, and she slapped the vase away with her face, her face full of eagerness.

I thought the vase should be broken, but I didn't expect that the vase was quite good at choosing the landing point. Except for the water and gardenia flowers, it splashed to the ground, and the entire vase fell on her cotton coat, which she had not had time to put away in winter.

Ye Mian was shocked and sighed that his skills were so good, then he bent slightly to pick up the vase.

Jiang Chen looked at the girl's neat actions, his eyes darkened, and there were some complicated emotions in his eyes.

He remembered that one day, in the winter earlier than last time, that night when he and the girl were in a dark alley and were surrounded by gangsters.

That time, the girl rushed in front of him and used a very standard military fighting technique to kick the gangster away. Except for the wrong strength, her posture was impeccable.

……

Jiang Chen narrowed his eyes and held the teacup on the table with his long knuckles. This was not something he could do in just a few days of military training as a student.

Why on earth?
do not know.

The sound of raindrops outside the window was transmitted to Jiang Chen's empty room through the current, carrying a scattered noise.

The doubts are so great that there is no evidence to support them.

Ye Mian concentrated on putting the gardenias back into the vase. She carefully cut off the broken flowers with scissors. After filling them with almost the same amount of water as before, she placed them back on the table with satisfaction.

This time she put it very close to the inside, not wanting to pick something up and knock it off again next time.

Jiang Chen looked at the screen. The vase fell out of the girl's hand and landed firmly on the table without falling again.

A slightly hoarse voice sounded.

"Ye Mian, did you undergo some kind of training somewhere? You practiced for a long time."

"Huh? No."

Ye Mian heard her decisive yet calm voice ringing in the room, and reacted quickly and naturally.

Unlike lying about trivial matters, she admired herself for not feeling guilty at all about such a major matter.

Her eyes were firm, her voice was normal, and her tone could even be described as relaxed.

The only abnormal thing is that her hands outside the screen are tightly wrapped around the edge of the table, so that no one can notice.

Psychologically speaking, counter-investigation awareness is an ability that often appears in people with investigative experience.

Ye Mian happens to be this kind of person.

During her internship, what she saw most often was experienced criminal police officers interrogating prisoners in the interrogation room.

As time goes by, it will get better.

Jiang Chen is an extremely smart investor, with the sharpest intuition and vision, and his negotiation skills are not bad. As long as there is something wrong, nothing can be hidden.

The wind blew through the cracks in the window and formed convection with the open door, making a sharp whine.

Jiang Chen sat on the sofa, tapping his delicate fingers on the table, and stared at Ye Mian for two seconds.

He couldn't lie to his heart and said that it was just a coincidence, but he couldn't bear to question the girl.

There was no hint of concealment in the girl's bright eyes.

He bent his eyes and chuckled, "Yeah, okay."

Ye Mian's heart felt cold.

Okay.

She also understood Jiang Chen.

This is obviously unbelievable.

But she won't ask why.

I don’t want Jiang Chen to reminisce too much.

I don’t want to continue lying either.

Move over this topic smoothly.

The thick fog that spreads contains the rain, and the dark clouds cover the brightest moonlit night.

After Ye Mian hung up the phone.

The fingers were tightly clenched in the palm of the hand.

The night outside the window was so thick that she couldn't breathe calmly.

Psychological pressure is too great.

She almost wanted to tell Jiang Chen everything.

But a sentence suddenly flashed in my mind:

It was a passage written in that particularly strange book she once placed in the old city. [If time and space appear in a chaotic latitude, and someone steps into the mysterious reincarnation, it is the so-called rebirth. 】

The general meaning is that reborn people can change many things, but the nodes of fate cannot be changed. If the secret of the future is told, the nodes will not disappear, but will change in a more bizarre way, without even a chance to avoid it.

She only read through the entire book in a hurry when her hormones were disrupted in adolescence, she was under great study pressure and suffered from insomnia. It was all some bizarre pseudo-scientific popular science.

Ye Mian sometimes couldn't remember it.

That book had also been lost by his father when he moved.

The content has become blurry.

She curled up at the end of the bed and watched the raindrops. She felt that the truth was coming soon.

At least...it's not without a breakthrough.

She just wants to graduate quickly.

Go back to Jiangcheng.

Go find out about Zhong Qian.

-

It didn't rain in Jiangcheng.

The dazzling bright moon hangs high on top, with a halo surrounding it, like a gentle cotton bed.

Jiang Chen sat on the edge of the sofa and lit a cigarette. The tobacco burned with white mist.

Because of tonight's episode, he uncontrollably recalled what the girl said that day and earlier.

A look of regret.

A horrified reaction.

During his most difficult period, she said to herself: "You will become a very, very good person in the future."

Among the things she asked him to do, she asked many times to protect herself and not commit adultery.

It is really a contradiction for a particularly good person to commit crimes and commit crimes.

And the wish she made at Prajna Temple is that she hopes to spend the New Year together next year and the year after.

What about all the years after that?

Everything wrong links together.

It seems like a coincidence but not like a coincidence.

It reveals a weird angle that he can't prove.

Crazy questions burned in my heart.

The man's eyes were darker than the sea, and his fingertips touched the armrest of the sofa rhythmically.

The girl's unique voice shouted in the dream.

"Jiang Chen, you don't want it!"

echoed in his mind again.

He frowned, with the sharpest wildness hidden in the gentlest eyebrows, and looked at the moon.

The sound was so low that it was barely audible.

"What don't you want? Die?"

……

The next day, the electrical wiring in the dormitory was repaired.

Ye Mian returned to live in the girls' dormitory.

I thought there were only a few days left, and these days would pass quickly.

However, Fu Ziheng is not a human being.

It seemed as if he was working against her invisibly.

Every time I take Xu Wen on a date, it's always in a place where she often appears.

So much so that Xu Wen also caught Ye Mian peeking.

When two girls of the same age looked at each other, their faces turned dark and their bodies stiffened at the same time. Neither one wanted to face the other's eyes.

that night.

As soon as Ye Mian came back from school, he was dragged to the woods by a pair of hands.

If this was a boy's hand, she would have to do it.

But this is a girl's hand, and from the back it's still Xu Wen.

She sighed.

All the dirty words in my heart were dedicated to Fu Ziheng.

　Thanks for being on the list tomorrow!

　　I want tickets~
