The correct way to wash a female ghost's hair
Officer Xu never expected that he would meet Nan Yehe again so soon after saying goodbye.
He looked at Nan Yehe, who was sitting expressionlessly in the chair, and replied to the person on the other end of the phone, "I happen to be here, and the eyewitnesses are here too. The victim has been sent to the emergency room. What about you? Have you found the person yet?"
"The hospital's security personnel failed to keep up with the suspect, and he escaped. The investigation is still ongoing."
Officer Xu frowned. "I understand. You can continue. I'll go and question the eyewitnesses first."
He hung up the phone, walked over and sat down next to Nan Yehe, without saying a word, first observing Nan Yehe's expression.
Very well, still no expression.
Officer Xu sighed inwardly and said directly, "Miss Nan, we meet again."
Nan Yehe turned her head and glanced at him.
“I know you’re definitely not calm right now. You were only connected to the last case by chance, but this time you directly witnessed the crime scene. In any case, it will definitely take some time to recover,” Officer Xu said, trying to keep his tone relaxed.
Nan Yehe looked at him quietly. "Officer, let's get straight to the point."
Okay, the other party is no ordinary person either, so Officer Xu will stop with the preamble. "Then please describe the circumstances of the incident."
Nan Yehe's gaze fell on the elevator not far away, as if she wanted to see the scene from there.
“After we parted ways, I went straight to the elevator. Two men came in behind me, one tall and one short. The taller one stabbed the shorter one with a knife and then ran away. That’s what I saw,” Nan Yehe said, turning her gaze back.
While taking notes, Officer Xu asked, "What are the physical characteristics of the tall man?"
Yes, that's a great question. I've been wanting to ask that same question.
Nan Yehe recalled as she spoke, "He was wearing ordinary black casual clothes, a baseball cap, and his bangs were quite long, almost covering his eyes. He looked somewhat familiar."
"Familiar?" Officer Xu marked the two words with an emphasis mark.
“Yes,” Nan Yehe nodded, “He looks familiar, but I really can’t remember where I’ve seen him before.”
After she finished speaking, Xu Jiu, who had been watching, suddenly floated over and nodded, "I also think it looks familiar, but the memory is very vague, so I can't remember."
With Officer Xu present, Nan Yehe resisted the urge to ask her questions.
But from another perspective, who are the kinds of people that both she and Xu Jiu would recognize?
Nan Yehe and Xu Jiu exchanged a glance and had a guess.
Just then, Officer Xu also observed the situation at the crime scene, and combined with Nan Yehe's account, he also found that possibility.
“He might be a public figure.” Officer Xu looked through the photos of the scene. “I’ve checked the locations of several surveillance cameras. He was wearing a hat, so it’s very likely that his face wasn’t captured. So if you can remember who he is, it will be of great help to us.”
Before his colleagues arrived, he had questioned the eyewitnesses on the first floor, but almost no one had seen his face, only one or two very blurry photos—thanks in a way, those two were bold. After obtaining the right to investigate the surveillance footage, it was discovered that the suspect had not covered his face with his collar in the elevator or before, while the surveillance footage on the first floor showed him running away with his collar pulled up and his neck hunched, making it even less likely that his face could be seen clearly.
Nan Yehe turned her eyes, seemingly deep in thought, but actually exchanging glances with Xu Jiu.
The suspect might be a minor celebrity, while Xu Jiu works for a media company and knows far more celebrities than she does. This person is probably the only one she can recognize.
Xu Jiu winked at her, his expression also conflicted.
Let alone whether her memory is hazy or not, these people like to sculpt their faces all the time, how could she possibly appreciate it?
Seeing her struggling, Nan Yehe wasn't in a hurry. She turned to Officer Xu and said, "I still can't remember, but I do remember the victim had a broken camera?"
Without her reminder, Officer Xu naturally knew this as well. "Yes, but it's still under investigation. If the suspect is a celebrity, then the other party might be a paparazzi. He or his studio must have exposed the suspect before, which caused the suspect to have such a strong hatred towards him."
We can summarize the following points: the tall man was once a public figure who was exposed for scandals by paparazzi and subsequently suffered a setback. However, perhaps he didn't have much online presence, so not many people recognized him, and he didn't have any fans who would support him unconditionally. He lost a lot of his life and came to hate these paparazzi.
“Chen…” Xu Jiu followed his train of thought, as if he had remembered something.
Nan Yehe gently raised her chin, wanting to hear what happened next, but Xu Jiu couldn't remember anything at all.
Okay, Nan Yehe decided to tell Officer Xu this clue first.
“His surname might be Chen,” Nan Yehe said, looking at Officer Xu. “But it’s just a possibility; I’m not sure. Also, I really have to go now; I have to go to the construction site again this afternoon.”
Going this weekend?
Officer Xu noted down the surname, had some questions, but still nodded to her, "Thank you for your cooperation this second time today. You can go now, be careful."
We really need to be careful; the chances of running into a crime here are way too high.
Officer Xu sighed with genuine emotion.
Nan Yehe silently rolled her eyes at herself. She hadn't just run into a crime, she'd run into a ghost.
She glanced at Xu Jiu, who was still deep in thought, clutching the milk.
After a quick lunch, to avoid trouble, Nan Yehe refused the company of others and went to the temporarily sealed-off crime scene by herself.
"Do you think you might have been stabbed to death by some minor celebrity too?" Nan Yehe couldn't help but ask, looking at Xu Jiu who was swaying happily.
Xu Jiu turned his head and looked at her in disbelief. "How could that be? I'm nice to everyone I know."
"What about those I don't recognize?" Nan Yehe stepped over a sharp stone.
"I don't have much contact with people I don't know, so it's even more impossible," Xu Jiu said with a sneer. "I don't really like getting to know a lot of new people, especially in this industry."
That makes sense. If someone can be so stupid as to scare someone, Xu Jiu probably isn't good at recognizing people. In that case, it's better to just avoid contact altogether.
Speaking of scary things, Nan Yehe recalled the tall man's expression.
"What exactly did you do today? You scared that person out of their wits," Nan Yehe asked.
She didn't think Xu Jiu's tricks could scare someone like that. A grown man, not even as calm as that brat.
Upon hearing this, Xu Jiu raised his head and looked up at the sky.
"What do you see in the sky?"
Nan Yehe had a premonition that she was about to be tricked, but she didn't care at all.
"bird."
It's not unusual to see birds in the South during winter.
Xu Jiu gave her a look, "Anything else?"
Nan Yehe looked at the sky and raised an eyebrow.
"An airplane? Rain? Or some fertilizer left on the earth by birds flying by?"
Xu Jiu decided to give up trying to communicate with her. "It's light. Haven't you noticed that I'm not afraid of light?"
Of course she noticed, Nan Yehe was still a little confused. "Aren't you following Kayako's style? It's normal that you're not afraid of the light."
This statement perfectly shut down Xu Jiu's next sentence.
She was about to say that she wasn't afraid of the light because she wasn't a vengeful ghost.
The senior colleague gave her a resounding slap in the face.
Xu Jiu abandoned his attempt to force-feed him platitudes and said directly, "It's that person; he has a guilty conscience, which is why he's afraid of me."
“Yes, that aligns perfectly with the core socialist values.” Nan Yehe clapped twice in agreement.
Xu Jiu gave her another look, then turned away, ignoring her.
Nan Yehe is ill! Xu Jiu concluded.
Despite being diagnosed with a medical condition, Nan is still pondering these two cases.
The first one goes without saying; we're almost there, we'll discuss it later.
Before the second incident, Xu Jiu once said that the short man's demeanor was very similar to the person she had bumped into before.
If the short man is a paparazzi, then is that furtive guy also one? The dropped object is even easier to explain; it's also a camera.
But why did this group of people come in such large numbers?
Nan Yehe wasn't sure if there were any other people on that floor who might be being photographed, but regardless, the person was already hospitalized, and yet they still came to cause this trouble. Not only were those paparazzi unethical, but the hospital also had serious problems.
She'll remember these things for now and be extra careful next time she sees a doctor.
However, having followed a health-conscious path for many years, I rarely end up in the hospital, except when I have to work overtime and stay up late.
Moreover, she is not a celebrity who needs too much attention.
As expected, fame brings trouble.
But Xu Jiu doesn't seem like the kind of troublesome rich kid. How did he run into so many unlucky things?
The problem has come full circle.
"Ahe! There's a police line over there, we should be there by now, right?" Xu Jiu turned around happily, pointing in a direction as he spoke to her.
Nan Yehe snapped out of her daze and looked over there.
"Yes, we've arrived."
Xu Jiu withdrew his hand and hopped over there, as if nothing had happened to him and he was just checking on someone's house.
She is indeed a typical example of someone who is heartless and carefree.
Nan Yehe took a step forward, stepped onto a large rock, and looked out at the warning area not far away.
The police have almost finished collecting evidence, but there are still people investigating there. It is expected that the place will be restored to its previous state in a few days.
She jumped off the rock and went inside.
"Please wait, an investigation is underway here." A tall man who was looking at his watch stopped her, his eyes still fixed on his watch.
Nan Yehe also withdrew his gaze. "I have clues about this case, and the victim is a friend of mine for many years."
She told half a lie without batting an eye.
The man then looked at her and asked, "What's your name?"
"Nanyehe."
The man nodded knowingly. "Yes, there is a clue related to you."
Nan Yehe looked at him, and the man looked at her in return.
The air suddenly fell silent.
Xu Jiu hadn't seen Nan Yehe for a while and was wondering why. Then she noticed that Nan Yehe was talking to the police over there. Just as she was about to walk over, she suddenly heard someone calling her name.
"Xu Jiu?"
Um? ? ?
Xu Jiu was stunned for a moment.
She turned her head. There were only three people and one ghost here. The other two were still staring blankly at each other. She was the ghost, so what about the remaining person...?
Xu Jiu looked at the man and found that the man was also looking at him.
Startled, she took three steps back.
Wait, why was she the one who withdrew?
Xu Jiu quickly realized her identity as a female ghost, and with the confidence befitting a female ghost, she bravely took two steps forward.
"Really?" The man stood up and shook her hand from a distance. "Hello, my name is Li Jiangui, I'm a..."
Xu Jiu frowned, then quickly replied, "A detective?"
Li Jiangui maintained his smile. "He's a policeman."
Oh... Xu Jiu was a little disappointed; no one understood her jokes.
"That man over there is my partner, his name is Zhao Keda." He looked in that direction and shouted, "Zhao Keda! I've seen the dead body!"
The two other people and the ghost on the field, apart from him, froze instantly, and even Nan Yehe looked around cautiously.
Actually, she didn't know why she was being cautious; it was probably because she had heard about Psyduck.
"My partner has found a clue. Don't move, I'm coming right away." Zhao Keda rushed over to Li Jiangui nervously. He wanted to shove Li Jiangui's head to the ground and stomp it into the ground before Li Jiangui could speak again!
Nan Yehe strolled over leisurely, completely ignoring Zhao Keda's words.
Just kidding, who is she?
Okay, she's nobody.
Nan Yehe performed her inner monologue with a blank expression, while Xu Jiu rushed over and dutifully relayed information to her.
“The policeman who just spoke to me is named Li Jiangui, and he can see me!” Xu Jiu looked a little anxious.
"Blastoise?" Nan Yehe's mind was beginning to drift in a strange direction.
Xu Jiu glanced at her quietly.
Nan Yehe is really sick.
real.
