Original sin

Xu Jing ate very happily, and would add vegetables to Shen Chen from time to time. Shen Chen didn't seem to be in the mood, and the dishes in the bowl were piled up.

"Why don't you eat?" Xu Jing found out only now.

Shen Shen took out a cigarette and lit one: "I don't have much appetite."

Indeed, he couldn't understand the strange things he encountered these days, including the case of Xie Changqing and Liang Lan, and he really didn't have much appetite.

"I know that you have encountered troublesome things recently, but no matter what, you always have to eat. Eat quickly, and then I will tell you a news that can refresh you."

Hearing what Xu Jing said, Shen Shen became energetic: "What news?"

"We'll talk about it after you eat the meal." After Xu Jing finished speaking, she stopped caring about him and started eating on her own.

Shen Chen had no choice but to pick up the bowl, finished eating casually, put down the bowl, and asked again: "Can we talk now?"

"Long Xuejun's father doesn't seem to be dead," Xu Jing said.

Shen Shen narrowed his eyes. Long Xuejun's father only said that he was missing. He and his father happened in the same place at the same time, but his father died and he disappeared.

But Shen Chen always suspected that he should still be alive, and he didn't really disappear, but hid.Shen Chen can even conclude that Long Xuejun knows so much about his father, and can even make correct judgments in many cases. There must be someone behind him, and that person is likely to be his "missing" father.

It's not just him who has such doubts, but also Feng Hu. It's just that they didn't ask Long Xuejun. Now that they are so close, this question is even more difficult to ask. It may affect everyone's current relationship. Just ask Suspect.

Of course, this is also based on the fact that they feel that Long Xuejun's position is on their side.

"Look at this."

This is a photo, which can be seen as a sneak shot. It is a photo of Long Xuejun and an old beggar. In the photo, the old beggar is sitting on the ground begging. Long Xuejun squats in front of him and puts a banknote in front of him. in that little tin box.

That old beggar has seen Shen Shen!

So when Shen Chen saw this photo, he was stunned.

He looked up at Xu Jing: "Do you suspect that this beggar is Long Xuejun's father?"

Xu Jing nodded.

Shen Chen still said cautiously: "Shouldn't such a conclusion be drawn based on such a photo? He was just giving alms to an old beggar. Are you being too sensitive?"

"I knew you would say that, look at these two photos again!"

The other two photos were also photos of Long Xuejun giving alms to the old beggar. The difference should be the time and place. In one of them, you can see the subtle communication between the eyes of the two.

Also, in one photo, the action of handing over the money is also somewhat interesting. It is said that in the first two photos of Long Xuejun, he put money into the iron box, but this old beggar actually stretched out his hand.

"I suspect that it's not Long Xuejun who put the money in, but the old beggar who gave him the money." Xu Jing analyzed.

Shen Shen nodded, and had to say that Xu Jing's analysis made a lot of sense.

It's just that Shen Chen is more concerned about another issue now, that is how Xu Jing got these photos.

"Have you been following Long Xuejun?" Shen Shen asked softly.

Xu Jing didn't deny it, she said that she was very curious about Long Xuejun, she felt that Long Xuejun seemed to know a lot of things, that's why she paid so much attention to Long Xuejun.

"Do you know the consequences of doing this?" Shen Shen asked.

Xu Jing stuck out her tongue, then shook her head.

Shen Shen sighed: "Long Xuejun is our ally now, if he knows that we suspect him and even follow him, what will he think? That's right, he does have a lot of secrets in him, but he didn't say anything to him. We caused any damage, but he gave me great help. So, although I am also curious, I have always respected his secret, do you understand what I mean?"

Xu Jing heard that Shen Shen meant to blame her, and was a little displeased: "I'm not doing it for your own good, I just don't want you to be cheated by him."

Shen Shen waved his hand: "He is a smart man, so why doesn't he know that I am very curious about everything about him, but he believes that I can master this degree, which is also the basis for us to get along well, right?"

Xu Jing pursed her lips, and finally nodded.

Shen Shen looked at her: "Including you too, I will respect everything about you."

Xu Jing sighed: "Well, I won't do that again next time."

Shen Chen smiled: "I'm sorry, my words seem a little heavy."

He handed the phone to Xu Jing, and said slowly, "Actually, this old beggar had contact with me before. At that time, he reminded me to be careful of Wang Tao, who is also Wang Lu's brother."

Xu Jing nodded: "I understand. After that, your attitude towards Wang Lu also changed. She talked with me on the phone, and she said that she was very distressed. It was difficult for her to be caught between you and her brother. Be human. Another point is that she doesn't believe her brother is that kind of person. I asked her what would she do if her brother really had a problem, and what do you think she would answer?"

"She will definitely say she doesn't know." Shen Shen said.

"That's right, she did say that, but it's good to have such an answer. At least she hasn't thought about standing in her brother's position. She needs time to think and choose. If it is I, I don't know what I should do. But Shen Chen, I have to tell you about this, she is her, her brother is her brother, you can't treat her like that just because of that old beggar's words. "

Shen Shen didn't speak, just sat quietly.

"And even if Wang Tao really has a problem, then Wang Lu is someone who can be won over, isn't he? Also, I'm curious, why does this old beggar only tell you to be careful of Wang Tao, why doesn't he tell you to be careful of Wang Husheng? You know, the real head of Daqian Industrial is Wang Husheng, isn't there any problem with Wang Husheng? Don't you think this is intriguing?"

Shen Chen had really thought about it, he even thought about whether Wang Husheng had a problem, the more he thought about it, the more he was unwilling to get too close to Wang Lu, if one day he had to fight the Wang family and his son, Then Wang Lu will be very sad and embarrassed.

"What I mean is, you should treat Wang Lu as well as possible. Your attitude towards her is very unfair now."

Shen Chen didn't expect Xu Jing to defend Wang Lu, he was a little confused about what kind of emotion there was between women.He knew very well in his heart that both Xu Jing and Wang Lu had a little meaning for him. Both of them expressed their feelings to him implicitly. According to common sense, Xu Jing should be happy that he treats Wang Lu like this. , but she still wants to speak for Wang Lu.

Shen Chen coughed: "Okay, I know about this, I have a sense of proportion. How are you these days, your parents..."

Hearing Shen Shen mentioning her parents, Xu Jing asked in a joking tone: "What? Do you want to know what my parents think of you?"

Shen Shen was speechless, originally he wanted to say that her parents didn't talk about her because of him, but who knew that it came from her mouth that he wanted to know Xu Jing's parents' attitude and opinion towards him.

"My dad is a workaholic. He likes people who are serious and responsible for their work. What he hates the most are those who don't do anything well all day long and want to take shortcuts. He is very satisfied with you. He said that there are fewer and fewer young people nowadays who can calm down like you and work hard. You will definitely be able to achieve something in time, really! But he also said that there are many restrictions on the police force. The space is not as good as the outside, and he also said that if you want, he can help you organize it and transfer it to other units, he believes that gold will shine wherever it is.”

Shen Shen shook his head, compared to that, he still prefers to be a policeman.

He really hasn't thought about his career, his future, and he thinks that only the police profession is suitable for him. He wants to be the captain of the criminal police for the rest of his life, not because of the so-called rights, but because he can always have the authority in this position. Case investigation, he feels that he will not feel bored if there is a case investigation, and he will feel that his life is meaningful and valuable.

When he first watched "The Detective Case of Sherlock Holmes", he didn't understand why Holmes would anesthetize himself in that way when there was no case. It turns out that handling a case is also addictive. If you can find out the truth of a weird and bizarre case, then A sense of accomplishment satisfies him.Of course, what he enjoys more is the process, the process of stripping away the cocoon and getting closer to the truth step by step.

"My mother, she hopes that you can change jobs. She said that criminal police is a high-risk job. If we are really together, she doesn't want the whole family to worry about you all day." Xu Jing laughed when she said this , and added: "But they are hot picks for shaving, neither of us has a slap in the face, but I still have to thank you, at least they didn't force me to go after you met them that time Blind date."

Shen Chen was also a little embarrassed: "It's good that I didn't cause you any trouble."

After dinner, Shen Shen said that he would send Xu Jing back to her residence. Xu Jing said that she had invited two sisters to go shopping, so Shen Shen drove away by herself.

On the way back, Shen Shen kept thinking about that beggar in his mind. He really wanted to meet that old beggar again. He had a lot of things he wanted to ask him face to face, but he didn't know if the old beggar had sensed what Shen Shen was thinking. He hasn't been seen again these days.

Shen Shen was wondering if he should ask Long Xuejun directly, maybe Long Xuejun knew where he was, judging from the photos secretly taken by Xu Jing, Long Xuejun and that old beggar should have been in frequent contact, but Every time is a different place.

After hesitating for a while, Shen Shen gave up this idea. Since Long Xuejun didn't mention this old beggar in front of him, it means that they don't want to tell him these things yet. He believes that sooner or later they will take the initiative to say so.

Back home, Qiu Yuzhen was watching TV on the sofa, and when she saw him coming back, she smiled and said, "You're back, why don't you let Xiao Xu come and sit at home!"

Qiu Yuzhen had a good impression of Xu Jing. Xu Jing was indeed very attractive to the elderly. She was especially good at chatting with Qiu Yuzhen, and she could always make Qiu Yuzhen laugh out loud.

"She invited a friend to go shopping. Besides, we are just ordinary friends, so it's not appropriate to take them home." After finishing speaking, Shen Chen was about to turn into his study.

But Qiu Yuzhen said: "What's inappropriate? You didn't marry her. As long as you met her eyes, what's the problem with being together? Do you think that her father is guilty and timid because he is an official? Son, don't be afraid." I'm afraid, with my mother here, what age is this, I still don't believe that her parents still have family differences."

"Mom, that's not the problem. Alas, you don't understand even if I tell you. It's okay, I have something else to do. You watch your TV, and I'm going back to the study." Shen Chen didn't want to let Qiu Yuzhen catch up on this issue again. After a long time, he quickly hid in the study.

Seeing Shen Chen's appearance, the smile on Qiu Yuzhen's face disappeared, she sighed long, and looked at Shen Shen's father's portrait: "Old Shen, the child is all because of you, if it weren't for you, I would have died a long time ago." I just hugged my grandson. He has always been unable to let go of your affairs. He has suffered from him all these years, and he is always thinking about finding out the truth about your case. You must be blessed by your spirit in heaven, and don't let him have any mistakes. "

Shen Chen naturally didn't know what his mother said, he sat in the study, thinking about the old beggar.

Xu Jing guessed that the old beggar was Long Xuejun's father, but if that was the case, why did he "disappear"?What kind of secret is hidden in him?In addition, Xu Jing was able to photograph several meetings between Long Xuejun and the old beggar. Did she really take those photos?With Long Xuejun's caution, I'm afraid it will not be easy for Xu Jing to follow him, right?
