Chapter 40

Gu Tanxi seemed to be pulled back to the scene of his mother's death by these words.

She walked over quickly and grabbed Liu Minyu's arm.

"What happened that year? How did my mother die? Did you kill my mother?"

Gu Tanxi suddenly shook Liu Minyu in excitement.

Liu Minyu, however, looked confused and shouted, "What are you doing? What are you doing? Xiao Gu, what are you crazy about?"

Jiang Youqi pulled Gu Tanxi over, grabbed her shoulders with both hands, and pressed down with the strength of his palms.

Gu Tanxi felt like he couldn't move.

Jiang Youqi: "Calm down."

Gu Tanxi really calmed down and felt like he was being suppressed by an invisible force.

"What's going on?" Jiang Youqi asked.

Gu Tanxi looked at the rose-red little Q-doll on Liu Minyu's head.

It was laughing, laughing wildly.

Laugh at them for not being able to do anything about it.

Tian Weifeng walked up and asked, "What's going on? Have you caught the murderer, or what?"

Jiang Youqi patted Gu Tanxi lightly and whispered to her, "If you have anything to say, we'll talk about it when we get back."

Gu Tanxi couldn't explain it clearly for a while, so he just nodded.

But she kept staring at the little Q-shaped figure on Liu Minyu's head.

As long as this little Q-man does not change color, it can prove that the thing is still in Liu Minyu's body.

Jiang Youqi walked around Gu Tanxi, blocking him behind him, and looked at Tian Weifeng and said, "The murderer hasn't been found. We are investigating. This matter is quite difficult and may take more time. Sir, where are you living recently? Can you give me a contact number?"

"I, I have a house somewhere else. I live there. Someone died here, and I don't dare to live here anymore. This is my phone number. You can add me on WeChat so we can contact you easily."

"Okay, if there is any news, we will inform you as soon as possible. Please go back with us and make a detailed record later." Jiang Youqi said in a businesslike manner.

"Okay, alright." Tian Weifeng nodded.

Gu Tanxi kept staring at Liu Minyu, and Liu Minyu was extremely embarrassed.

"Xiao Gu, stop looking at me like that."

Gu Tanxi's eyes were sharp. "I'm not looking at you, I'm looking at it."

"I'm even more scared when you do this. Tonight... can I stay overnight at Captain Jiang's house?" Liu Minyu looked at Jiang Youqi pitifully.

Jiang Youqi patted him on the shoulder and said, "How dare you be so timid? Are you worthy of the name of the Supernatural Power Bureau?"

Fang Lingjian asked Xiao Li to clean up the scene, and then took Tian Weifeng back to the Supernatural Bureau.

Liu Minyu got into Jiang Youqi's car, and Gu Tanxi also followed him to the back seat, looking at Liu Minyu with his head tilted.

Liu Minyu asked embarrassedly: "Xiao Gu, Sister Gu, if you keep looking at me like this, what can you see?"

"I'm afraid it will run away." said Gu Tanxi.

Jiang Youqi drove back to the Ability Bureau. Seeing that Gu Tanxi's mood had stabilized a lot, he asked, "Xiao Gu, would you mind telling me about your mother's death?"

"It was convenient, but I don't really remember much... I was only eight years old that year. After it happened, I fell seriously ill, and my memory of what happened that day is very vague. Just now, when I saw this rose-red thing, I remembered a little bit. My family said my mother committed suicide. I only remember seeing her lying in a pool of blood, and the whole room was very red...

A rose-red object flew out of Mom's body. It was the same object as the one in Brother Liu's body. No, it was the same object. It recognized me just now. You heard it, didn't you? Captain Jiang.

Jiang Youqi nodded, "Liu Minyu, do you remember what you said to Xiao Gu when you turned around after the instrument exploded?"

"Ah? Did I say anything? I just remember that I was suddenly dragged and shaken around... No, now that you mention it, I feel like there is a small blank in my memory. I don't even remember how I ran away." Liu Minyu rushed forward in shock and hugged the backrest behind Jiang Youqi.

"Captain Jiang, please let me sleep on the floor at your house tonight. I'm scared."

Gu Tanxi: "I'll go too."

Jiang Youqi was about to refuse.

As a result...Gu Tanxi said she wanted to go too.

That……

"Okay, my house is big and has many rooms, so I don't need to sleep on the floor."

Liu Minyu breathed a sigh of relief. "That's great, thank you, Captain Jiang."

"Xiao Gu, then you..." Jiang Youqi didn't care about Liu Minyu.

Gu Tanxi said, "I'm going to keep an eye on him. The three of us can sleep on the floor in the living room. That way, we won't have to worry about him running away."

"Ah?" Liu Minyu thought about the scene.

"Not very good."

Jiang Youqi said, "There's nothing wrong with it. I think it's pretty good. If I'm really worried, I'll call Xie Bei and the others over. Even if this thing has 20,000 points, it wouldn't dare to come out and fight seven alone, right?"

Liu Minyu suddenly felt safe: "I'll call them, now, right away!"

Gu Tanxi didn't say anything, but just continued to stare at Liu Minyu.

＊

When they returned to the bureau, He Jiaming just brought over the sorted documents.

This case was assigned to Fang Lingjian.

So He Jiaming took the documents and went to Fang Lingjian's office. On the way, he met Jiang Youqi and Gu Tanxi and said hello.

He Jiaming, who was walking over, noticed something was wrong and looked back at Gu Tanxi.

He looked at Jiang Youqi and asked: What happened to her?

Jiang Youqi shook his head slightly and told him not to worry about it.

He Jiaming shrugged and went to find Fang Lingjian.

Jiang Youqi thought about it, waved his hand, and asked Gu Tanxi and Liu Minyu to follow him. He then took them to Fang Lingjian's office.

Fang Lingjian looked at the three of them. "What? Are you all here?"

Jiang Youqi looked at the file bag on the table and reached out to take a look.

Fang Lingjian snatched it away: "Is this your case? Just take it."

"This case belongs to me, you can't handle it." Jiang Youqi said domineeringly.

"Why can't I do it?" Fang Lingjian asked.

"You can't see that thing, but now only Xiao Gu can see it." Jiang Youqi had reasons and evidence.

But the next second he lost his courage.

Fang Lingjian stood up, put his hands on his hips, and said proudly, "That's right, Xiao Gu is from our second team. You, from the first team, get out. Get out!"

Jiang Youqi was anxious: "What happened to Team 2? She is my..."

"You what? Give me a reason." Fang Lingjian looked at him provocatively.

Only then did Gu Tanxi come back to his senses.

She looked at Jiang Youqi and then at Fang Lingjian.

Jiang Youqi looked frustrated and couldn't find the words to fight back.

But the little Q-man above his head was already breathing fire.

"She's my wife! My wife! Wife!"

Gu Tanxi looked at the grumpy little Q on Jiang Youqi's head. Did he already think of her as his wife?

They are just agreements, without any emotions.

Gu Tanxi was a little confused.

But from childhood to adulthood, it is rare to be affirmed so deeply by someone.

Regardless of whether it was true or false, this inexplicable warmth still surged into her heart.

"Captain Fang, can't we investigate together? I want to know how my mother died. The strange thing in Brother Liu's body is the only clue. I don't want to miss it."

"This case originally belonged to our team. You could have investigated it yourself. Why did you insist on investigating it with Captain Jiang?"

Fang Lingjian looked at the two of them suspiciously.

Gu Tanxi was speechless for a moment.

Although Fang Lingjian and Jiang Youqi do not really have any hatred for each other, they have always been sworn enemies at work, competing in a healthy way, and want to suppress each other.

After all, the year-end bonus is there.

Who can resist money?

So the atmosphere at the moment is a bit tense.

He Jiaming coughed twice.

"If Captain Jiang wants to help, let him..."

Jiang Youqi put his arm around Liu Minyu's shoulders and said, "Because Xiao Liu is staying at my house tonight, I will protect him."

Fang Lingjian pulled Liu Minyu over, put his arm around his shoulders, and said, "Xiao Liu can stay at my house tonight. I can protect him."

Jiang Youqi pulled Liu Minyu over and said, "You're not as strong as me. If that thing comes out to kill people, can you beat it?"

Fang Lingjian was unconvinced and snatched Liu Minyu back. "I have seven combat puppets. Come out and I'll kill him."

Liu Minyu suddenly laughed shyly: "This is the first time I've been fought over by two captains. I suddenly feel so important~~"

Jiang Youqi and Fang Lingjian both looked at him with contempt.

Liu Minyu laughed out loud: "Hehe."

Gu Tanxi suddenly grabbed Liu Minyu's arms, pulled him over, and said seriously: "Brother Liu, you can live in my house too, and I can protect you!"

Jiang Youqi blurted out: "No!"

Liu Minyu quickly shook his head and stepped back: "No, no, it's not suitable, it's not suitable..."

Liu Minyu looked back at Jiang Youqi. Why was he objecting so loudly?

Fang Lingjian looked at Jiang Youqi and the expression on his face began to change.

"I understand."

He Jiaming, who was watching the show on the side, smiled like an aunt: "I understand too."

Jiang Youqi suddenly felt embarrassed.

"You know nothing."

He Jiaming has been a criminal policeman for so many years, how could he not see Jiang Youqi's little thoughts?

He nudged Fang Lingjian with his elbow and said in front of Jiang Youqi, "Check it out for him. He's already old, and if he can't get a wife, it'll be your fault."

Fang Lingjian naturally went down the steps now that he had them.

"Here, here, here, you kid, I understand your little tricks. Take it, take it and check it out. Go, go, go."

Fang Lingjian stuffed all the other relevant information into Jiang Youqi's arms.

"Go on, the case is yours. I'm going back to bed."

Fang Lingjian didn't want to stay any longer, so he immediately picked up the car keys and hurried out.

He Jiaming patted Jiang Youqi's chest and said with a smile, "Let's get back to work now?"

Jiang Youqi hesitated to speak. He wanted to explain something but found that he had no way to explain anything.

So I just continued working.

"Then let's have a small meeting first."

He Jiaming cooperated and pulled out a chair: "Okay, take a good look at Tian Weifeng's transcript first."

Gu Tanxi didn't care about these things, he only cared about the thing in Liu Minyu's body.

Now, his little Q man is still rose red.

And with a smirk on his face.

He didn't say anything, just looked at everyone quietly.

Jiang Youqi pulled out a chair and said, "Xiao Gu, come here and sit down. Take a rest for a while."

Gu Tanxi's body was tense the whole time, and when he took a step forward to walk, he wanted to move both legs.

She swayed a bit before she successfully took a step with her left leg.

He Jiaming noticed that Tanxi was not in a good state, so he walked over to Jiang Youqi and asked quietly, "What's wrong with her? Is her mother related to this?"

Jiang Youqi looked at the file and said, "This is another case, but it hasn't been filed yet, so we can't investigate it together for now. Xiao Gu, if you want to investigate your mother's death, you might need to recall more of the past. Be mentally prepared before you speak. Let's investigate Bao Lixia's case first."

Gu Tanxi nodded absentmindedly.

He suddenly remembered something and asked, "If I suspect my mother was murdered, is it too late to report it now?"
