female catcher

Chapter 83 Farewell
Fang Yi's heart softened again, he stood up and walked in front of her, brushed a strand of hair from her shoulders behind her, and said in a low voice, "How can you think like that? No one wants to leave you alone, Even if you are married, you will always be my sister. If you marry, there will be more people who will take care of you and love you. The person I am going to meet this afternoon is my good friend for many years. He has met you, I also like you very much..."

"elder brother……"

"Brother is worried about you, but he can't take care of you forever, so I hope you can marry a good man, and someone can take care of you for me. Do you understand?"

"Brother, do you still not give up, do you still want to marry Liu Rong? Liu Ying is not engaged to you, do you still think that the Liu family has not insulted you enough?"

Fang Yi smiled faintly, "Brother brought you up and worried about family affairs for ten years, and he also wanted to have his own life and live for himself, can you understand? I like Liu Rong and want to be with her Together, it’s okay even if the Liu family doesn’t agree. Actually, I want to be selfish for a while.”

Fang Ruolan was taken aback, looked sideways at Fang Yi, and suddenly smiled strangely, "You are going to take care of Liu Rong for the rest of your life, right? So you can't take care of me for the rest of your life..."

Seeing that Fang Ruolan couldn't reason with Fang Yi, Fang Yi was a little helpless, "Even without Liu Rong, I can't take care of you forever."

"Really?" Fang Ruolan wiped away her tears, turned her head to look at the sunlight outside the door, and said quietly, "Okay, since my brother doesn't give up, I wish you a happy marriage for a hundred years."

Xia Chu waited for Fang Yi's answer, but Fang Yi never told her. He only told Fang Ruolan about his elopement with Liu Rong, and he couldn't tell her.I don't believe the answer that is already in front of me.

Jiang Xiyuan couldn't wait any longer, he asked Fang Yi to stay to appease Liu Rongniang, and then dragged Xia Chu to leave.

"I... have to find Ruo Lan." Fang Yi said.

Jiang Xiyuan frowned, "It's up to you."

After finishing speaking, he asked Xia Chu to go back to the government office first, and sent out all the people he could use to find someone.On the other hand, he went back to the general's mansion and borrowed some people from home to help.

"Judging from the circumstances of the deaths of Hong Yuerong and Liu Ying, if Fang Ruolan wants to do something, the location he chooses must meet two conditions. They should not go outside the city, they should be in the city." Xia Chu and Jiang Xiyuan quickly talked about the general direction of the search.

"I know."

"I hope we are wrong again." Xia Chu said when they parted at the intersection.

"It should be right this time." Jiang Xiyuan didn't say any more, turned and left.

Although many people were used to find Liu Rong and Fang Ruolan, the movement was not too big, but the movement could not escape the eyes of Su Zhen's secret guard.

After Min Feng got the news, he thought for a while, then went to An Liang and asked him if he wanted to report this matter to the emperor.

"If you're looking for someone, just look for someone. The emperor just finished approving the paper, so what are you going to do with such a trivial matter?" An Liang shook his head.

Min Feng nodded calmly, "Eunuch An, let's think about it."

When Min Feng left, An Liang leaned against the porch pillar with Fuchen in his arms, thought about it for a while, and felt that it seemed inappropriate, and finally found an excuse to go in to see Su Zhen.

Su Zhen looked at the snacks that An Liang brought up, and was puzzled, "I didn't say I was hungry."

"This is what I brought back from the street when I went to buy mutton soup today, not from the imperial dining room." An Liang narrowed his eyes with a smile, "Your Majesty, would you like to try it?"

"On the street?" Su Zhen picked up a piece and took a bite, shaking his head slightly, "The dim sum is not as good as the one in the palace, it's too sweet."

"Your Majesty, this is a snack recommended by Mr. Xia. I met him when I went to buy mutton soup today. The mutton soup was still paid by Mr. Xia, saying thank you for the two letters from the emperor."

"Really?" Su Zhen curved his lips into a smile, and took another bite of his snack, "What about the case?"

"Just now, Min Feng came to talk to the servant. I guess the case is almost over. Now the government office is looking for Miss Liu and Miss Fang all over the city. I don't know exactly what happened."

"Looking for two women?" Su Zhen didn't quite understand.When he gave those clues to early Xia, he thought about it briefly. He felt that Fang Yi was more suspected, or that Fang Yi and Liu Rong committed the crime together.

What happened to Miss Fang?What do you want her for?
While thinking about it, Su Zhen unknowingly ate two pieces of snacks, then took a cloth towel to wipe his hands, and said to An Liang: "You ask Min Feng to send some hidden guards out, and look for them too."

"Ah?" An Liang was surprised, "Let the secret guard...help the government find someone?"

"Go."

Liu Rong and Fang Ruolan were finally found by Xu Lu in the backyard of an abandoned theater in the south of the city.

After having a rough positioning, it is more convenient to find someone. After all, there are not too many places in Xijing City that are suitable for killing people and throwing corpses.

When Chu Xia arrived, Liu Rong was sitting on the steps of the stage with his head bowed, hugging his shoulders. There was some blood on his head, but he looked fine.

"Where's Fang Ruolan?" Xia Chu asked Xu Lu.

"In the backyard." After Xu Lu finished speaking, he walked towards the backyard with Xia Chuyi, "But I haven't woken up yet."

"What do you mean you haven't woken up yet?" Xia Chu paused, blinking suspiciously.

Dramatic reversal?Did Liu Rong knock Fang Ruolan unconscious?
"It seems that someone has tapped the acupuncture points. But I don't know how to release the acupuncture points, so she is still unconscious."

Xia Chu still couldn't understand, and didn't ask any more questions, so he quickened his pace and went to the backyard.Although the theater yard was abandoned, it was not too dilapidated. New grass grew randomly from the cracks in the bricks, but there was no dead grass from last year. It seemed that it had not been abandoned for a long time.

Fang Ruolan lay on the ground, as if falling asleep.Xia Chu walked over to look at her, picked up a wooden stick as thick as a man's arm from the ground, and handed it to Xu Lu.

"Who made the hole?"

"I don't know, it was like this when I came here. Liu Rong was also unconscious at the time, but I only woke Liu Rong up, and Fang Ruolan was like this all the time. Her breath was quite even, and there was no injury. I tapped the acupoints. I didn’t see anyone else.”

Is this an encounter?Why is there such a thing?

Xia Chu looked around the yard and pointed to a well at the corner of the yard, "It seems that she is going to throw it into the well. But how does she know there is a well here?"

"Oh, this theater was only abandoned in the winter of last year. The original owner was an official, and later he was assigned by Su Yi. This place was taken over by the Ministry of Industry and has not been dealt with. In the past, there were often big girls and young wives in this place. I guess Fang Ruolan has also been here."

"It can't be the Hong family's property..."

"I really don't know about this," Xu Lu said.

"Okay, first let people take both Liu Rong and Fang Ruolan back to the government office, and find a doctor to show Liu Rong their injuries."

When returning to the mansion, Xia Chu saw Fang Yi and Liu Rongniang standing at the door from a distance.She took a step back and sighed silently.

When Liu Rongniang saw Liu Rong, she hurried up to meet her and hugged her into her arms, crying loudly without being able to say a word.Liu Rong didn't cry, she looked over her mother's shoulder and looked at Fang Yi with a somewhat empty gaze.

Fang Yi also looked at her from afar, and finally moved after a while, but walked past Liu Rong and walked towards Fang Ruolan who was still unconscious behind her.

When passing by her wrong shoulder, Liu Rong closed her eyes and lowered her head to lean on her mother's shoulder.

After a while, Jiang Xiyuan, who got the news, rushed back to the government office and relieved Fang Ruolan's acupuncture point.Fang Ruolan woke up, and after a moment of trance, panic gradually appeared in his eyes. After looking around, he stretched out his hands and hugged Fang Yi.

"Ruolan..." Fang Yi hugged her shoulders, called her name with sobs, and then closed his eyes, tears rolling down his face.

Xia Chu asked Xu Lu to stay at the door to watch, and then pulled Jiang Xiyuan back out.

"Aren't you going to interrogate now?" Jiang Xiyuan asked her.

"Your Excellency, let me interrogate, I..., I have been caught, there is nothing wrong with me." Xia Chu said in a low voice, and looked back at the dimly lit prison.

"Hong Yuerong and Liu Ying are innocent people, Fang Ruolan has nothing to sympathize with," Jiang Xiyuan said.

Xia Chu looked up at Jiang Xiyuan, pursed his lips like a smile, "My professionalism is still not enough, I can't help but bring my emotions into the case. My lord is right, there are two an innocent life. Actually, I don't sympathize with Fang Ruolan either."

She sighed, and kicked a small piece of gravel on the ground far away, until the sound of bones and bones stopped, she continued: "I sympathize with Fang Yi. I sympathize with his family affection for Fang Ruolan, I also sympathize with his love with Liu Rong."

"I see."

"My lord, I'll go to the police room to rest for a while, and you can call me again if you need anything."

Xia Chu went back to the police room, did not turn on the lamp, curled himself up on the bed, and sighed lightly in the dark.She thought she couldn't fall asleep, but she was still tired after all, and fell asleep in a daze.

"Xiao Chu, go in! Don't come out, don't make a sound, brother will come to you in a while." The brother stuffed her into the closet, dragged a few clothes to cover her, and closed the door again.

"Brother, do you want to play peek-a-boo?" she asked.

"Shut up! Brother will come to you later."

The inside of the closet was pitch black, and nothing could be seen. There was a messy sound outside the closet. She heard her father calling her brother's name. She guessed that her brother must have made a mischief again and was scolded by her father.

After a few loud noises, there was no sound in the room.Xia Chu secretly covered her mouth and smiled, knowing that peek-a-boo had started, she put her clothes on her head, hoping to scare her brother when the door opened.

But she seemed to have forgotten at that time that it was her brother who hid her in the closet.He will find what he hides, how strange that is.

After a long time, so long that she had fallen asleep in the pile of clothes, my brother didn't open the door again.When the cabinet door was opened again, the person standing outside the door was not my brother, nor my parents, but an uncle in a police uniform.

"Uncle." Chu Xia smiled sweetly.

The uncle looked at her and smiled reluctantly, "Xiao Chu, close your eyes, and uncle will carry you out.

"What about brother?"

Uncle didn't speak, stretched out his hand to hug her into his arms, and then pulled a piece of clothing to cover her head.She wanted to pull down the clothes, but was held down, "Xiao Chu, be good, uncle will take you away."

"Uncle, my brother hasn't come to see me yet."

Her brother never came to her again.

It was a sensational shooting, a gangster's revenge on the police.In just a few minutes, she lost her parents and elder brother. It was not until she became sensible that she realized that it was a farewell hide and seek.

No one will come to her again.
