Chapter 114

Looking at the hand stretched out in front of him and the police officer who announced his origins so generously and directly, He Xing was stunned for a moment.

Zheng Yi, justice, police officer Zheng Yi.

She chewed over these words in her mind.

The police officer in front of me was not the kind of upright police officer with a great and glorious face like in TV dramas. She was very ordinary.

Ordinary clothes, ordinary face, and now what seems to be an ordinary self-introduction.

It was difficult for He Xing to describe her feelings at the moment. Her brain froze for a moment, and during that pause, she seemed to be thinking about many things.

Before she could react, her cold, slender hand clasped the slightly rough and corded hand.

An almost scalding heat came from the palms of her hands, and for some reason, it gave her a sensation of almost burning.

The police officer's grip was firm and powerful, yet He Xing felt as if he was having a hard time breathing.

It was like a drowning person being grabbed and pulled to the shore.

The next second, Zheng Yi took the initiative to let go of his hand.

She looked around and pointed to a convenience store near the theater.

"The show will start in two hours and end at nine. Xiaoyan and the others will be here for a while. Do you want to go get something to eat?"

Zheng Yi spoke in a calm voice, as ordinary and unrecognizable as her whole person, and invited He Xing to eat.

He Xing pursed her lips and then nodded.

When they arrived at the convenience store, Zheng Yi asked her what she wanted to eat. He Xing looked at the grilled sausage, steamed buns and oden in front of the checkout counter and chose kelp, radish and konjac shreds, all of which were vegetarian.

As for Zheng Yi, she picked a lot of things in a hurry, including a cup of oden and juicy grilled sausages. She sat on high chairs with He Xing. Through the transparent glass, they could just see the entrance to the theater.

"You have great self-control." Zheng Yi praised He Xing as he looked at her all-vegetarian oden.

He Xing paused the bamboo skewer that was holding the konjac in her hand, wondering if her words had any other meaning.

"It's just a professional requirement." She said calmly.

He Xing was eating oden quietly, with all kinds of thoughts flashing through his mind.

She was waiting for the police officer's test, or perhaps some other follow-up.

But He Xing waited for a long time, and Zheng Yi just ate while looking at the scenery outside the glass. She ate very quickly and finished a small bucket of oden very quickly. She was drinking the soup with a very bold posture, and was crunching the grilled sausage.

Noticing He Xing looking over, Zheng Yi tilted his head, "What's wrong?"

She moved the sausage on the bamboo skewer in her hand, which was about to be eaten, and said, "Do you want to eat it? I want to buy another one?"

"Thank you, but no thanks." He Xing turned his head stiffly.

She thought the officer had brought her here to find a place to talk, and she even had a plan for what to say.

But unexpectedly, it seemed that Officer Zheng Yi really came here just to eat, and he ate a lot.

He Xing finished his few skewers of oden in silence, and then listened to her continue speaking.

"Ms. He, can you add me on WeChat?"

He Xing really wanted to say that it was inconvenient, but for some reason, he saw the other person's eyes and called up his own QR code.

She didn't know what was wrong with her.

Clearly, he was a stranger whom she had only met once, and clearly, she didn't want to have anything to do with the police, but she was inexplicably taken away by this police officer with a strange aura. She resisted in her heart but didn't know why she hesitated.

The phone beeps, a reminder of a new friend.

He Xing saw the WeChat name "Zheng Yi". It turned out to be this Zheng Yi. Her eyes sparkled.

Zheng Yi, Zheng Yi, does it matter?

Am I thinking too much or too little?

"Ayan and the others will be here soon. I'll buy some more food." Zheng Yi jumped down from the high chair easily and took away the garbage.

After a while, He Xing saw her bring back the food she had bought, and she also handed over an ugly little dark blue hand warmer.

She was stunned for a moment, "What?"

"For you." Zheng Yi spoke briefly.

"Your hands are cold, put them on to warm them up."

Noticing He Xing's look, Zheng Yi added, "Don't worry, it's new."

The note on the hot water bottle hadn't even been cut off yet and it was very hot, so I guess it was a product sold in this convenience store.

"How much is it? I'll transfer it to you." He Xing asked.

She doesn't like to owe anyone a favor, especially one that comes without any reason or purpose.

"Silly, I bought the things, there is no reason for you to pay for them." Zheng Yi shook his head.

"You're right." He Xing looked at her and spoke.

"Do your own things yourself. My parents taught me this since I was young."

Zheng Yi looked at her eyes that were filled with countless emotions, as if he saw a raging fire burning.

She likes to play straight, but that doesn't mean she can't figure out twists and turns.

"I hope to see you on the stage, Miss He."

"How lucky the dancer is."

Zheng Yi emphasized his tone.

Don't get your hands stained with blood because of scum.

She was supposed to have a bright future and shine on the stage.

He Xing turned her head away, she had already died once.

She clutched the hot water bottle in front of her tightly with her fingertips.

Obviously, after experiencing so many worlds, everything has been calm, but whenever she thinks of the pain and hardship in the past, she feels hatred, a hatred that drills her heart.

She has done so many tasks. What kind of heart-wrenching and bone-breaking pain has she not experienced in the sad novels?

Day and night, night and day, He Xing relied on the hatred in his heart to persevere.

The police officer in front of her tried to make her give up on revenge, but she was unwilling to do so.

She was prepared to have her hands stained with blood, but so what?

It is only natural to pay for one's murder.

Dad, Mom, and I still have three lives.

She is all alone in this world now, what is there to be afraid of?

Moreover, with my own methods, what can I find out in this world?

"Do you know about the recent announcement about the Xie family case?" Zheng Yi spoke again, but He Xing did not look at her or respond.

Zheng Yi noticed He Xing's ears moving slightly, and she smiled silently.

"That's my case." She spoke calmly and unhurriedly.

"It may seem like a big deal to the public, but to me, it's just an ordinary case that can be made public."

He Xing's fingers tightened, Zheng Yi, Zheng Yi, it was really her.

"I don't say this to flatter myself."

"I just want to tell you that I have this ability."

"I will get to the bottom of this."

Zheng Yi knew that this was not just her one-man show.

He Xing's slightest movement had already fallen into her eyes.

"We are here." Ah Yan saw two people outside the window glass, and she and Jue Jue rushed in quickly.

After all, judging from the expression on He Xing's face, she and Officer Zheng Yi might not have had a very pleasant experience before.

Zheng Yi saw the young couple coming in, and the timing was perfect.

She waved her hand, "Come here, I bought you some food."

"Oh, thank you, sister. I'm so hungry." Ayan and Zhu Jue quickly sat down and started eating.

"It's only six o'clock now. We have to hold on until nine o'clock. We really can't go without eating." Ah Yan said while chewing the mushrooms in the oden.

"This grilled sausage is not bad, it's the kind you like." Zhu Jue took a bite and confirmed that it was the texture and taste that Ayan liked.

"Really." Ah Yan took a bite and chewed it, his eyes lit up. It was crispy on the outside, with crispy bones inside, and the black pepper flavor was fragrant.

"Senior, are you going back to school tonight?" Ah Yan slurred his words while eating.

The performance of "Shen of Luo River" lasts 120 minutes, including a 15-minute intermission. If the actors' curtain calls are added, it will probably take another 20 minutes. They will end at least at 9:20!

If I take the subway back to school at this time, the curfew of Binda University is 11 o'clock, but I can make it if I try hard.

But tomorrow is the weekend, otherwise Juejue and I would go out and play. Tonight, Ayan and Juejue directly booked a big hotel in the city center near the theater.

"No, I won't go back to school on weekends. I've booked a hotel." He Xing shook his head.

Including today's show, she has tickets for a total of five shows. She wants to watch all five shows this weekend, so it is naturally convenient for her to stay here.

The appearance of A Yan and her boyfriend made her mind even more complicated.

"Yeah, they've already entered." Ah Yan watched as the queue at the theater entrance rushed in at a speed visible to the naked eye. She and Jue Jue immediately sped up their eating.

"The cards have been issued." Zhu Jue looked at the official announcement from the theater on his phone. The cards were only issued one hour before the show. Fortunately, they did not buy the tickets themselves. Otherwise, every time they spent a high price on a card, they would be nervous and worried about the card being blocked.

"All A's?" A Yan asked.

“All A’s.”

All A's means that there is no Fu Yao today, she is the B role.

Ah Yan suddenly felt at ease today. It seemed that nothing would happen tonight. She quietly looked at Police Officer Zheng Yi and Senior He Xing.

I just don't know what happened between the two of us before Jue Jue and I arrived. Wouldn't Officer Zheng Yi just A in?

At 6:20 pm, they entered the theater together with their tickets and went to the bathroom first.

The area around the official venue was crowded with people. When Ah Yan came out of the bathroom, he saw He Xing had a brochure in his arms and was reading it.

Ah Yan's eyelids twitched. Four people entered the venue together, sitting in the middle of the fifth row, which was also her favorite position.

For drama, go to the front row; for dance, go to 5-8 in the center. The first three rows will tire your neck, and you'll need a telescope in the back. For large scenes, go to the second floor.

Ah Yan hadn't figured out whether he should put Senior Sister He Xing and Police Officer Zheng Yi together or separate them, when he saw the two of them sitting down one after another.

Okay, the two of them will sit next to each other, so Juejue and I will sit on the right side of Senior Sister He Xing.

Ah Yan looked around. People were still entering the pool and some seats were still empty. The age of the audience in some seats was obviously getting older. When they looked at each other, he felt like he had met a leader or the dean.

The second floor seemed quite full, and she had already spotted someone holding a telescope.

Ayan took out two small telescopes from Juejue's backpack. She brought them just in case and was playing with them in her hands.

Before the show started, Zheng Yi, who had never seen this kind of performance before, asked He Xing a few "novice" questions.

He Xing answered all the professional questions one by one. Suddenly, even the audience in the surrounding seats started to ask questions and sharpen their weapons.

The dance drama "Lotus Goddess" began. Applause broke out after the actors and staff appeared on the screen. Then the show officially began. The venue was silent.

I was completely absorbed in the two hours of watching the show. The dance drama "Shen of Luo River" does not tell the story of the entanglement between Zhen Mi and the Cao brothers in "The Story of Shenshen of Luo River", but rather the story of the water god Luoshen in the myth.

During the half-time break, more audience members asked He Xing questions because they didn't understand some parts, and she patiently explained them one by one.

A Yan and Zheng Yi both looked at her. Although she was bare-faced and dressed simply, He Xing seemed to be glowing as she spoke so eloquently.

His behavior was completely different from his usual state at school or in the dormitory. He was completely immersed in the field he loved and patiently paid attention to every audience member.

During these two hours, because she was on the right side of senior sister He Xing, every time Ah Yan secretly looked at her, senior sister He Xing seemed not to notice. Her eyes were completely focused on the stage and the actors.

During the intermission, she never clapped with the audience until the final actors took their bows. After five bows, Ah Yan listened to her senior sister clapping loudly.

At 9:30 in the evening, many of the audience left the venue in a hurry, but they were not in a hurry.

A Yan and Jue Jue walked in front, while Zheng Yi and He Xing fell behind.

Ah Yan looked back and saw that the audience in the front row had already left. Senior He Xing was standing in front of her seats, staring at the stage.

Next to Senior Sister He Xing, Police Officer Zheng Yi just stood there, as if accompanying her.

They were almost the last ones to walk out, avoiding the crowd and dispersing the show. When the four of them walked out of the theater door, the people in front of them were already a long way away from them.

"What are we going to do tomorrow?" Ah Yan skipped along and gave Bing Bing feedback about watching the ballet, which made her happy.

"Lu Chen hasn't come this month." Zhu Jue said suddenly, and A Yan was also stunned.

She pointed at her finger and said, "Oh, yes, it's been more than a month. Did it get delayed after we became VIPs?"

"He wouldn't have come back yet, right? I hope nothing happens to him." Zhu Jue guessed.

I don’t know which plane Lu Chen has gone to recently. According to the rule of refreshing the plane convenience store, the teleportation point that appears once a month should also appear.

The two of them were worried about Lu Chen for a moment, and when they turned around, they found that Officer Zheng Yi and Senior Sister He Xing were still walking very slowly, and no one knew what they were talking about.

Zheng Yi walked on He Xing's left side. As the evening breeze blew, her voice seemed to reach He Xing's ears more easily.

"Ms. He, my colleagues often tease me."

"Because I am a lazy person, I hate going to work, and I especially hate meetings. Whenever I have a meeting, I am always a few minutes late."

"So they always describe me in one sentence: Justice may be late, but it will never be absent."

The coastal city is dotted with stars tonight and the moonlight is very bright.

They walked under the street lights, the white light of the street lights shining from above, and Zheng Yi's hands seemed to have light at this moment.

The street lights cast long shadows that became more distorted as people walked forward.

At this moment, Zheng Yi extended his right hand towards He Xing again.

He Xing lowered his eyes and saw the hand grabbing his left hand.

She looked at Zheng Yi in astonishment.

But this hot, slightly rough hand was inserted between her five fingers, tightly, and their ten fingers were clasped together inextricably.

He Xing looked up and saw her smiling.

"Justice has found you, how lucky."

"It's in the palm of your hand."

The cold street lights shone on her like the light of righteousness.
