Chapter 41 The Rainstorm is Coming (Part 2)
The identification center in Hai City did not find the white Jetta with its front and rear license plates blocked.
However, according to the identification center's processing of the Jetta car's video imaging, Gao Bochuan did see Chen Yu in the car, but the car completely disappeared from the surveillance after it drove away after passing Xia Beibei's car.
The only way is to continuously expand the scope of surveillance and restore the entire route of the vehicle. However, if the search scope is continuously expanded, the workload will increase exponentially, which is time-consuming and labor-intensive.
After finishing the work in Hai City, Gao Bochuan took Xia Beibei and others back to Yun City.
On the way, Xia Beibei kept turning her head to look out the window, silent and pale. The atmosphere in the car was a little depressing. Shen Yunfei took a look in the rearview mirror and saw that the wheel of the car ran over a stone and Xia Beibei's forehead hit the glass squarely.
It hit her right where she was injured. She cried out in pain, covered her forehead with her hands and gasped. Gao Bochuan was on the phone nearby. Seeing this, he hung up the phone and kicked directly at the driver's seat.
“Drive carefully!”
Shen Yunfei was so frightened that he trembled and hurriedly greeted him, "Boss Bei, are you okay?"
Gao Bochuan pinched Xia Beibei's chin and turned her face around. He carefully took her hand away and saw that the gauze on her forehead was bleeding and her face was frighteningly dark.
He pulled Gu Ding over from the car behind and rebandaged Xia Beibei's wound. Gu Ding packed up the medical kit and said with a smile, "Fortunately, we always have these things in the car, otherwise Captain Gao would be heartbroken."
As he spoke, he glanced at Gao Bochuan jokingly, then turned to look at Xia Beibei. The ambiguous look in his eyes was extremely obvious. Ever since Maureen made a scene in the guesthouse that night, Xia Beibei had become accustomed to this kind of meaningful teasing.
She was in a bad mood and didn't want to talk, but when she saw Gu Ding, she suddenly remembered something.
"Old Ding, I remember you often mentioned a junior before, the one you said had a higher level of medical attainment than you, named Mo Tan. How old is he and where is he from?"
After Xia Beibei finished speaking, Gao Bochuan paused with his arm around her waist and looked at her with a frown. Gu Ding was stunned for a moment, looking at Xia Beibei in surprise, then he cleared his throat with two dry coughs.
"Boss Bei, is it appropriate for you to care about other men like this in front of Captain Gao?"
"I……"
"Doctor Gu, you can go down now."
Before Xia Beibei could finish her sentence, Gao Bochuan had already ordered Gu Ding to leave. Shen Yunfei restarted the car. Xia Beibei said anxiously, "Boss, I haven't finished asking questions yet."
Gao Bochuan held her hand and said, "You're looking for Mo Tan? Did Wang Dian tell you something?"
Xia Beibei was a little tired, and she leaned her head on his shoulder. "Yes, you have been busy, and I haven't had time to tell you. Wang Dian doesn't know who the murderer is, but he mentioned a person, Mo Tan, 31 years old, from Tongyu, Yun City. I remember Gu Ding often mentioned a junior named Mo Tan before, so I tried my luck."
Gao Bochuan touched her head, his expression gradually becoming serious, "Gu Ding's junior is indeed called Mo Tan, 31 years old, from Tongyu, Yun City..."
Xia Beibei suddenly raised her head and looked at him in astonishment, "Boss, do you know him?"
Gao Bochuan said: "Yes, Mo Tan is Mo Lin's brother"
It has been two days since Xia Beibei returned to Yun City, and she has not seen Mo Tan yet. Gao Bochuan said that Mo Tan is abroad and he has contacted him and he will be back soon.
After returning from Hai City, Xia Beibei has been in a bad mood. She has not been on field work and has been lying on her desk every day with a heavy heart.
Gao Bochuan was a bit busy these two days, and the two of them didn't communicate much. Zhou Xun didn't know what he was busy with, and he didn't come to see Xia Beibei these two days, so rumors began to spread in the team.
The general meaning is that Xia Beibei was playing two games, one was Zhou Xun and the other was Gao Bochuan. Unfortunately, she capsized recently and was discovered having an affair by both of them at the same time.
Xia Beibei was in a bad mood and didn't want to pay attention to these boring things, but she accidentally discovered that someone had secretly set up a bet, betting on who she would abandon and who she would be with after she capsized.
Of course she would not miss such an opportunity to make money, so she immediately put all her assets on Gao Bochuan, and then she found the culprit who set up the gambling.
"Ah! Bastard! Who is the bastard who scribbled on my book? Stand up right here! I'll skin him alive!"
At noon, everyone had lunch and returned to the office. Lin Qi was the last one to come in. He was humming a little tune and was in a particularly good mood. Three minutes after returning to his seat, he began to roar like a lion.
When the girlfriend is angry, the boyfriend suffers. Yang Lin tried to persuade them, but was given a few cold stares and a kick on the leg.
"You know why I'm angry? Ah, I just bought a set of suspense novels and started reading it yesterday. Which idiot circled all the murderers with a pen? It's a whole set, and I didn't leave a single murderer!"
Everyone's mouth twitched, and they tried hard to hold back their laughter for fear of getting into trouble. Xia Beibei picked up a pen and threw it at Lin Qi.
"I drew it. What's the matter? Look at this pen. Does it look familiar? It's the one you used to gamble. Daqizi, you're awesome. You dare to take my money."
Hearing her mention the gambling, Lin Qi suddenly felt guilty, and ran over to rub against her hard. In the end, he reluctantly accepted two meals from her, and was also asked to ask her a question.
"For example, I want to ask the boss for help with something, but it will be difficult for him to do so. But I have to get him to agree. Do you think there is any way?"
Lin Qi looked at her, blinked ambiguously, and smiled obscenely, "That's easy, it's a honey trap. Tell him the matter first. If he doesn't agree, pounce on him and kiss him until he agrees. If he still doesn't agree, take off your clothes and lie on the bed. I'll do whatever you ask for."
Gao Bochuan came back at 3:50 in the afternoon, with obvious fatigue on his face, as if he had something urgent to do. When he came in from outside, he was still holding documents in his hand, and he went straight into the office without even raising his head.
Xia Beibei picked up the takeaway on the table and walked towards his office. At three o'clock, Shen Yunfei sent her a message, saying that Gao Bochuan had not eaten since morning and asked her to buy food in advance and wait for him.
After knocking on the door twice, Gao Bochuan looked up from his documents and saw that it was Xia Beibei. His angry face immediately softened.
"come over"
He waved at her, and Xia Beibei walked over and opened all the takeaways, including a bowl of rice, one meat dish, one vegetable dish, and a bowl of crucian carp soup. Seeing that he was busy writing something, she very considerately picked up the chopsticks and spoon to feed him.
Half an hour later, the meal was finished and Gao Bochuan had just finished his work. He leaned back in his chair, took Xia Beibei's hand and pulled her into his arms, then held her on his lap and sat her down.
"What's up?"
Xia Beibei hugged his neck and hesitated for a long time before carefully uttering a few words.
"Boss, can I see the files on the extermination of the Xia family 20 years ago?"
Gao Bochuan was stunned, frowning and remaining silent. Seeing his expression, Xia Beibei's mind was filled with Lin Qi's words. Then, as if possessed by a ghost, she held his face with both hands and moved her mouth closer to his.
After a long time, Xia Beibei collapsed in his arms, her voice was very low, but with a hint of coquettishness, "Boss, let me have a look, I just want to take a look, I promise not to take pictures, and I won't take it out of your office"
Facts have proved that Lin Qi's method is indeed effective. Ten minutes later, Gao Bochuan said he was going out to smoke a cigarette and put the file on the desk before leaving.
Xia Beibei looked at the thick file bound with kraft paper in front of her, her eyes fixed on the cover, on which were written the cause of the case, the time of the crime, the location of the crime and the name of the victim.
She touched the name on it with trembling hands, took a look and dared not look again, took a few deep breaths and finally opened the file with difficulty, the interrogation record, the on-site investigation report, the autopsy report, the on-site photos...
Bang!
She suddenly closed the file, her face turned pale, her eyes were red, her head seemed to be about to explode, her neck seemed to be tightly pinched by someone, she couldn't breathe, and an overwhelming feeling of suffocation surged from her heart.
His facial features were wrinkled and he bit his lips hard until he tasted blood in his mouth. Then he slid off the stool and fell to the ground, holding his head and crying loudly.
Gao Bochuan was leaning against the door smoking. When he heard the crying inside, he quickly put out his cigarette and opened the door to go in.
As soon as he entered the room, he saw Xia Beibei curled up under the desk, holding her head and crying hysterically. His face changed, and he ran over in two steps, holding her arm and carefully pulling her out.
"It's okay, it's okay"
He held her in his arms, patting her back with one hand and rubbing the back of her head with the other, constantly comforting her.
Xia Beibei bit his neck very hard, and blood dripped down his neck onto Gao Bochuan's black T-shirt. Gao Bochuan just frowned and did not push her away.
As the smell of blood became stronger and stronger, Xia Beibei finally came to her senses. Her dilated pupils gradually focused. She opened her mouth and realized that she had bitten Gao Bochuan. Her face became even paler.
"Boss...Boss, I'm sorry, I...I didn't mean it, why didn't you push me away?"
She looked at the blood on his neck and cried loudly, panicking. She wanted to reach out to wipe the blood but didn't dare to move. Gao Bochuan reached out to wipe away her tears, picked her up from the ground and put her on the chair, then he supported himself with his hands on the armrests of the chair and bent down to kiss her.
After a long time, the door was suddenly pushed open from the outside.
"Boss, there's news about Chen Yu's car from the Forensic Identification Center. You..."
Lin Qi's voice stopped abruptly. She looked at the scene in front of her in astonishment, not knowing whether to go in or retreat. She just walked in when she saw the door was half open. She should have knocked on the door first.
Gao Bochuan left Xia Beibei's lips, reached out to touch the blood on his lips, and without looking back, he just yelled softly, "Get out!"
Lin Qi shuddered all over and ran away as if escaping, remembering to help them close the door before leaving.
