Chapter 21 So, there is only one bedroom
Xu Jialan's earlobes were slightly flushed.
She lowered her head and ate the bun without saying a word.
Since yesterday, she discovered that he had called Mrs. Shen several times.
Mrs. Shen...
At this time, she was indeed Mrs. Shen in name and in reality.
…
After breakfast.
Shen Xichuan changed his clothes and drove Xu Jialan to the laboratory.
Xu Jialan glanced at the familiar buildings outside.
She pursed her lips and looked at the man beside her.
Shen Xichuan raised his eyebrows slightly, “What’s wrong?”
If Xiao Wu and the others were here, they would probably be shocked.
Such a gentle tone actually came from their captain's mouth.
Xu Jialan took out a card from his bag, which was the access card for the community.
Shen Xichuan lowered his eyes and glanced at the card, but did not move.
"Didn't you... say you wanted to move to my house? I might be very busy today and don't have time to accompany you, so you have to move alone. This is the access card to my community. I'll send you the building number, house number, and password later." Xu Jialan spoke in a clear voice, neither fast nor slow.
The man lowered his head, the corners of his mouth raised, "Okay."
He reached out and pulled out the card, turning it casually between his fingers.
When Xu Jialan saw his action, his eyes paused.
She unbuckled her seatbelt and looked at him intently for a few seconds before getting out of the car. "You, be careful."
The man's eyes were fixed on her, and a gentle arc appeared at the corner of his mouth.
“Yes, I understand, Mrs. Shen.”
Hearing these three words, Xu Jialan's ears couldn't help but turn red.
She tucked the hair behind her ear and said, "I'll be leaving now. Bye."
After saying that, she opened the car door and got out.
Shen Xichuan didn’t leave immediately, but pressed the car window and tilted his head slightly.
His hand rested lazily on the car window, his eyes fixed on Xu Jialan who walked into the laboratory building not far away without looking back.
Until the beautiful figure disappeared in the building.
The man slowly withdrew his gaze, started the car, and drove away from the laboratory.
…
Laboratory.
After leaving Shen Xichuan, the cool aura on Xu Jialan appeared again.
She took her work badge and walked out of the elevator at a moderate pace.
When the staff saw her, they greeted her politely.
"Professor Xu."
Xu Jialan nodded slightly, walked through the areas, and entered his office.
Fang Zhiyun was holding a stack of documents in one hand and a cup of coffee in the other.
"Good morning, Professor Xu."
She habitually placed the coffee next to Xu Jialan's hand.
Xu Jialan nodded, "Good morning."
"Professor Xu, this is yesterday's test report."
Fang Zhiyun handed her a document. "We found blood in the clothing fibers collected from the crime scene. Through database comparison and DNA analysis, we have confirmed the victim's identity."
Xu Jialan's eyes were cold as he opened the document and looked carefully at the data on it.
She nodded. "Besides the fibers from the clothes, have you found any DNA samples from a third person in the environmental evidence collected from the scene?"
Fang Zhiyun lowered her head and looked through the information on the tablet.
"All evidence has been tested, and no DNA or fingerprints were found to prove the presence of a third person at the scene."
Xu Jialan looked at the scanned footage and said, "The murderer must have known that we would collect evidence from the scene for testing, so he destroyed the evidence in advance."
Fang Zhiyun's expression froze. "If that's the case, then it means our test results might have been deliberately designed by the murderer?"
Xu Jialan's expression was not very good either. "Collate these materials and send them to the police immediately."
"I understand." Fang Zhiyun replied.
"Prepare all the evidence. I will personally examine it."
"Yes, Professor Xu."
…
After leaving the laboratory.
Shen Xichuan first went back to Nanhu and picked up the two packed suitcases.
Xu Jialan sent him an address and a few strings of numbers.
It's the building number, house number, and password.
Sent him all at once.
After seeing the message, the man chuckled and said, "You trust me so much?"
Maybe it was Xu Jialan's trust that made Shen Xichuan happy, and the smile on his face was very relaxed.
After replying a message to Xu Jialan, he turned on the navigation, started the car, and drove away from Nanhu.
The place where Xu Jialan lives is called Xinghu Bay.
The community environment is quite good and very quiet.
And the security facilities are very strict.
Shen Xichuan glanced at the patrolling security guards and drove the car into the underground parking lot.
Xu Jialan has two parking spaces.
It just so happens that the other one can be given to Shen Xichuan.
After he found the location, he parked the car, dragged two boxes, swiped the access card, and entered the elevator.
After a while, the elevator arrived.
Shen Xichuan came to the front of the house and pressed the password.
The door lock accepts fingerprints, but he didn't record it and just entered the password.
Shen Xichuan walked in and glanced up.
The apartment is not very big.
But not small at all.
It can be seen that the owner of the house is very clean and everything is kept tidy.
Compared with Nanhu, the decoration here seems more homey.
At least it's a little warmer.
Shen Xichuan changed into the slippers he had prepared in advance and walked inside.
He came to the outside of the study and looked inside.
As Xu Jialan said, there is a wall of custom bookcases inside.
The man paused, then walked in.
He didn't touch the things inside, but just walked to the bookcase, stopped, put his hands in his pockets, and glanced at the books on it.
The types are indeed very diverse, with almost all kinds of books available.
Shen Xichuan also saw that Xu Jialan had even kept his high school books and placed them on the top of the bookcase.
He didn't know what he was thinking about, and a faint smile flashed across his eyes.
After a while, he walked out of the study.
There are two rooms next to the study.
One is the master bedroom, and the other is... a dressing room.
The man's eyes suddenly paused.
So, only one bedroom?
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but pinch his eyebrows.
…
Xu Jialan was busy until noon.
She had no intention of resting.
I was in the hospital for a week and took another day off yesterday.
A lot of work has not been done yet.
Just when Fang Zhiyun was ready to be busy until the afternoon.
Xu Jialan's cell phone suddenly rang.
She stopped what she was doing and took out her cell phone.
Fang Zhiyun clearly saw that Xu Jialan's expression softened significantly after seeing the caller ID.
She was secretly shocked. Could this be the person who captured Xu Jialan?
Xu Jialan's voice was gentle, "Hello?"
A familiar voice came from the other end of the phone.
"Have you got a meal yet?"
Xu Jialan paused, glanced down at the evidence on the table, and replied helplessly, "Not yet."
The man paused for a few seconds before speaking, "I ordered food for you, eat first and then I'll get busy."
Xu Jialan opened his mouth, "But I..."
"good."
Shen Xichuan's word "good" was enough to make Xu Jialan obedient.
"Okay, I understand."
After chatting for a few minutes, the two hung up the phone.
After a while, a staff member came to find them.
"Professor Xu."
The staff member trotted in, then suddenly stopped, his face filled with shock and gossip. "You...your husband's meal has arrived."
Fang Zhiyun widened her eyes, "?"
