Chapter 10 A romantic restaurant suitable for young couples.
The members of the serious crime squad finally managed to rush out from the crowd of reporters.
Because of Lin Meiqi's leg injury, Feng Charlie kept protecting her until she got into the car.
After the car started, He Wanyi couldn't help but ask, "Who asked these reporters to come? Isn't this delaying things? Could it be the owners of those gold shops?"
Liang Yifeng responded: "I specifically told you not to mention it to anyone who has nothing to do with the case."
He Wanyi paused and added, "But this haunted building has indeed always been the center of topic. It was easily reported in the news before, and now there is a murder case. How can people not think about it?"
Feng Charlie listened silently, and after a long while he spoke: "How much do you know about this haunted building incident? Why are there so many false reports about it?"
He Wanyi answered: "I don't know the details, I just heard some gossips that some people saw ghosts there and heard scary noises. But I think they are just scaring themselves. After the haunted building was abandoned, the lights and the inside looked dark, which was indeed scary. But this is not the work of evil spirits, it's just like some water monster, one person spreads ten people, ten people spread a hundred people, who knows whether it is true or not? The first person started the rumor, and then it spread. I just hope that these news reports will not disrupt public opinion on this murder case."
Liang Yifeng said: "In fact, people are scarier than ghosts. If the haunted building is really haunted, just don't go in. But if it's a human, who wouldn't be worried about the residents nearby? It's possible that the murderer is hiding among them!"
Everyone was discussing the case.
After a while, the topic turned to Lin Meiqi.
Liang Yifeng was curious: "Forensic Doctor Lin, is your leg really healed? I was shocked to see you in the building today."
Lin Meiqi smiled and said, "It's really good. Fortunately, I chose the latter between the venomous snake and the fall. Otherwise, if the venomous snake had bitten me, I'm afraid I would have lost a leg!"
“It was prescient.”
Liang Yifeng gave a thumbs up and praised.
[Receive praise, IQ +1]
Wow, the IQ that was lost due to physical strength is back.
Lin Meiqi's mind became clearer, and she suddenly thought: "Why did people evacuate the Ziguang Building, which eventually led to the legend of this haunted building?"
"It's been ten years. Let's check the original information again." said He Wanyi.
Feng Charlie nodded: "Lin Meiqi's direction is correct. Although what happened ten years ago may not be related to the present, this ghost rumor is really outrageous. How could such a good commercial building be suddenly vacated? No one dares to take over. We need to find out."
"I've heard about this from my neighbor's second uncle." He Wanyi said.
Liang Yifeng asked: "How do you say that?"
Ho Wan-yi answered, "The mall was doing well, but suddenly the boss quit and moved his family out of Hong Kong. He probably took his children to study abroad, and the whole building was no longer in operation. The sudden withdrawal made all the merchants panic. The family was in a hurry to leave and wanted to sell as quickly as possible at a low price, but the lower the price, the more people thought there was something wrong. And they were in a hurry to leave, and they didn't want such a big treasure pot, so people started to talk about whether the feng shui of this mall was bad?"
"Has there ever been a murder in this building?"
Liang Yifeng said: "I checked before coming here, and there is nothing."
"That's not right. Why would a family suddenly move away? Why is it bad feng shui?"
Liang Yifeng shook his head: "I don't know. Anyway, it spread from one person to ten people and from ten to a hundred people. It started to spread ten years ago. It's hard to find the source of this rumor now."
"Try to check if there are any other clues."
Back at the serious crime squad, Lin Meiqi sat in the forensic room, turned on the computer, and browsed various anatomical pictures on the computer.
Each part of the human body needs to be photographed to ensure a relatively comprehensive display.
Liang Yifeng made her a cup of coffee. When he came in and saw the monitor, he quickly covered his eyes. After so many years, he still needed a while to relax after looking at such bloody and blurry anatomical pictures.
The key point is that these are not normal anatomical photos. Some of the rotten corpses are really... unacceptable.
Fortunately, there was no Giant Viewing. He had seen it live once, and he still feels traumatized when he thinks about it now.
"Forensic Doctor Lin, are you sure you can eat and look at these pictures at the same time?"
Lin Meiqi shrugged: "Isn't this normal?"
"Forensic Doctor Lin is really a strong person..."
Lin Meiqi said calmly: "I took leave a few days ago because of a leg injury and didn't go to class. I have to go to class again tomorrow, so I have to prepare in advance."
Liang Yifeng was surprised: "Wow, I have to prepare pictures like this. Can the students accept it?"
Lin Meiqi smiled and said, "At first I also thought they wouldn't be able to accept it. In the first class I just showed them limbs soaked in formalin. I didn't expect that not many people would take my course, but they were able to endure it. They took the initiative to ask for a higher intensity class and said they could bear it. In my opinion, it's better to experience it earlier. When you really become a forensic doctor, you have to keep your face normal so that you can continue your work."
Liang Yifeng sighed: "So you also train yourself so cruelly."
"It's okay. It's a job requirement."
Lin Meiqi reached out and hugged the cup of coffee, which was still warm, the temperature was just right, "Thank you, Sir Liang."
Liang Yifeng said: "This is what I should do. Um, I came in to ask if you are free tomorrow. I want to treat you to a meal. But you have classes tomorrow, so can we do it tonight?"
Lin Meiqi was surprised: "Are there any cases that have been solved recently? A celebration banquet? This is what the Sergeant suggested. Are you all going to join us?"
Liang Yifeng was a little embarrassed by the series of question marks: "Actually, it's you and I. Nothing else, you have been in the serious crime team for a short time, as an old police officer, you should treat me."
Lin Meiqi said, "So that's the rule of the serious crime squad. That's great. I have time tonight. What are we going to eat?"
Liang Yifeng: "I'll take you to a western restaurant that I've treasured for a long time. I've always wanted to go there."
Lin Meiqi smiled: "Okay."
In fact, Liang Yifeng had something to say. The reason why he had treasured this western restaurant for a long time was because he wanted to bring the girl he liked there, but he had never met the one he liked.
That western restaurant is very romantic and suitable for young couples.
Although he and Lin Meiqi are not a couple, he thinks that if they are dating, it should be soon, and he will try his best to seize the opportunity.
In the evening, Liang Yifeng picked up Lin Meiqi and drove to the western restaurant.
The western-style restaurant was very elegant. As soon as Lin Meiqi entered, two rows of waiters in expensive and formal attire bowed to them. Lin Meiqi felt flattered for a moment: "Such a beautiful restaurant!"
As soon as you enter, what catches your eye is the lush glass structure. In the 1990s, restaurants with all-glass structures were rare. From the outside, it looks like a shining pearl, emitting light at night.
The spherical building has a very stylish lighting, and the light fills the entire sphere, setting off the atmosphere.
As a greedy cat, Lin Meiqi was of course satisfied: "Mr. Liang, where can I find a good place?"
"I heard about it from someone."
The pebbles and flowers along the road make it seem like you are walking into a fairyland, with water vapor spraying nearby.
After taking off her forensic white coat, Lin Meiqi was wearing a one-piece dress that reached her knees, showing off her fair and slender calves.
She walked along the path, stopping from time to time, sometimes looking at the fish in the pond, sometimes looking at the rare plants.
"This restaurant should be very expensive, right?" Lin Meiqi asked, "I didn't expect that Sir Liang would treat newlyweds with such standards. It's really too expensive."
Liang Yifeng scratched her head embarrassedly. It turned out that until now, she still thought that she was the senior treating the junior.
But how should I say that?
He could only smile: "Yeah, this place is really nice."
The two of them sat down, and Liang Yifeng seemed to have already booked a private room and ordered the dishes in advance.
Soon, a plate of crystal-like dim sum was brought up. It was a round bulge, and the thin crystal skin allowed you to see the colorful filling inside.
The fragrance lingers on your lips and teeth after one bite, and the taste is just right, with a moderate sweetness and sourness.
Lin Meiqi sighed: "Not only is the scenery good, the taste is also good."
The two of them ate and talked, occasionally chatting about the day's case.
Liang Yifeng originally wanted to express his feelings to Lin Meiqi. Although he had not had much private contact with Lin Meiqi and Lin Meiqi had just arrived at the serious crime squad not long ago, he had known Lin Meiqi's name for a long time. For him, the transformation of this feeling from idol to confession object was natural and not abrupt.
But when he looked at Lin Meiqi, who was only focused on eating with her cheeks puffed up, he let out a long sigh.
Now is not the time to say it, because there is an 80% chance that you will be rejected. No one will agree to say yes to someone you have only known for a few days and don't know that well.
That's fine. Lin Meiqi is fully focused on work now, so she shouldn't have too many other thoughts, right?
Otherwise, it is better not to say it directly, but find someone to ask indirectly to see what she feels about you and whether she has a good impression of you.
Liang Yifeng clenched his hands nervously.
"Come and eat it, this tomato tofu is really delicious. What's in it? I can taste the flavor of chicken soup and the fresh fragrance of abalone. This soup should be made with many ingredients. You will never find this restaurant again if you miss it." Lin Meiqi said.
Liang Yifeng looked at the small piece of tofu on the plate and thought that Lin Meiqi, who picked it up for him, was quite cute.
He ate the tofu and said, "Mm, it tastes really good."
"Well, can you still adapt to the intensity of the work in the serious crime squad?"
Liang Yifeng really didn't know what to say, so he just brought up a random topic.
"I've adapted. I don't have that intense work. But seeing you guys visiting everywhere and often staying up late is really tiring. Last time, I saw Sergeant didn't go home for several days!" said Lin Meiqi.
Liang Yifeng said: "This is also a process of survival of the fittest. Being a police officer is a must. I was not in the West Kowloon District Crime Squad before, so I had an easier time. After coming here, I can only exercise every day to maintain my physical strength. So I deliberately placed my home in an area that is a certain distance away from the Crime Squad. I run here in the morning to exercise my body, otherwise I can't keep up with the pace of the sergeant."
As he spoke, he lifted up his sleeves, revealing his tight arm muscles with beautiful lines, and his hands were clenched so tightly that veins bulged.
"Look, it's very solid."
"Wow!"
Liang Yifeng showed off his muscles like a peacock showing off his muscles. Lin Meiqi was indeed attracted. She couldn't help but ask, "Can I pinch it?"
"Yes, sure."
The tips of Liang Yifeng's ears turned red, but luckily Lin Meiqi didn't notice it.
She stared at her arm, reached out her hand, and touched it gently. A tingling feeling came over Liang Yifeng's heart.
"You've practiced really well!"
I have to say, Lin Meiqi is a little envious.
It’s just that she lives too far away, and she has to get up earlier than others in the morning, so she doesn’t have much time to exercise.
The two talked and more than an hour passed by unknowingly.
Lin Meiqi ate all the classic dishes of the restaurant and was very satisfied. However, she thought that this restaurant should be very expensive, so when she paid the bill, she said, "I'll pay half!"
"No, I promised to treat you."
Liang Yifeng paid the bill and left the restaurant with Lin Meiqi.
Standing at the door, the wind blew their hair.
Liang Yifeng turned his head to look at Lin Meiqi and couldn't help but lose his mind.
"Let's go. I'll take you back." Liang Yifeng said.
"Okay." Lin Meiqi smiled.
Because Lin Meiqi's legs and feet had healed and it was no longer suitable for her to live in He Wanyi's house, she returned to her original residence.
Liang Yifeng drove her downstairs and watched her back all the way. Only when the light in Lin Meiqi's room came on and he knew she was home did Liang Yifeng feel relieved.
However, Liang Yifeng did not notice that someone under the tree in the distance also saw the light.
A man hidden in the depths smiled faintly: "Lin Meiqi, you are finally back. I have been following you for two days but there is no trace of you. I guess you are still fiddling with your corpses in the autopsy room?"
The man disappeared from behind the tree like a shadow in the night and blended into the night.
Lin Meiqi returned home and took out the unfinished food she had packed, turned on the TV and ate one snack at a time. She felt so happy.
In fact, she had restrained herself when having dinner with Liang Yifeng just now, otherwise how could she maintain the coolness of "Yan Yidao"? She didn't dare to stuff food into her cheeks like a hamster as usual.
However, her cute and soft appearance has long lost the image in other people's minds.
I switched channels several times but there was nothing interesting to watch, and finally I settled on a TV series with Mingyi in it.
This is an idol drama called "Girl's Summer", which is a love story of several young men and women. The background is on campus, which brings back memories of Lin Meiqi's school days.
Ming Yi plays the role of a school hunk in the film. Although the character he plays is young, his makeup and look do not look out of place at all. He wears a school uniform with his schoolbag thrown over his shoulder.
With his tall stature standing there, he looks like a protagonist.
Lin Meiqi stared at it for a while and even forgot to eat the snack.
As for this person's acting skills, she didn't pay much attention to them, but this drama didn't seem to require much acting skills, as long as the protagonist was charming enough.
But that face is so handsome that it makes people obsessed with it from time to time. By the end, I don’t even know what the show is about. I’m just busy looking at his face. What a handsome guy!
