Chapter 146: Playing Chess
This is easier said than done. As a result, the workload of the map detective increases exponentially. Moreover, this is tantamount to finding a needle in a haystack, and the chance of getting results is actually slim.
"I want to see Xia Yizhuo again." Tao Lin, who had been silent for a long time, finally spoke.
"If you search hard like this, you will definitely not find it. Only by prescribing the right medicine can you solve the root cause of the problem." He spoke and stood up from his seat.
He was sure that Xia Yizhuo knew more inside information, and Mr. Xia was now the most obvious breakthrough in the case.
"I'll go with you and leave the questions about Chen Ang to my colleagues in the team." Yu Zijiang also stood up.
Before Chen Rui and Liu Zezhou could say anything, they were the only figures left pushing the door open.
Just do what they say, and Yu Zijiang and Tao Lin are absolutely unambiguous.
The remaining two people were left hanging in the office. They were both newcomers to the team and didn't know how to deal with such an embarrassing situation. In the end, they could only look at each other helplessly and help put Yu Zijiang's hand on the table.
After sorting the documents, they walked out of the room together.
More than an hour later, Yu Zijiang and Tao Lin drove to the Nanshanyuan villa area in the north of the city. Xia Yizhuo's villa was peaceful and peaceful as usual.
His wife comes out to clean the yard from time to time, and a partner comes to visit every few hours. Perhaps there are too many friends coming to visit, but Xia Yizhuo likes to stay in the living room on the second floor all day long.
Yu Zijiang stood in front of the villa. After listening to the brief report of his stalking colleagues, he felt that the life of this CEO was really boring and rigid.
"Dong dong dong -" Tao Lin knocked on the mahogany door of the villa. Guan Yuhua first looked at the peephole cautiously and quickly opened the door for them.
"Hello Mrs. Guan, we are here to see Mr. Xia." Tao Lin said.
"Please come in." Guan Yuhua immediately opened the door wider and extended her hand to invite the two police officers to come in.
The moment he walked into the entrance hall, Tao Lin heard the lively sound of piano music coming from the direction of the living room.
The sound was ethereal and melodious. The further you walked toward the living room, the clearer the sound you heard.
Look forward intently——
"Are you showing Swan Lake?" The scene played on TV made Tao Lin frown slightly for a few seconds.
"Yes, this is my favorite ballet." Guan Yuhua said.
"Can I ask you why you didn't continue dancing ballet?" Tao Lin asked next.
"Because of injury." Guan Yuhua simply answered in four words.
Speaking of ballet, Guan Yuhua's smiling eyes seemed to contain a little regret.
"I'm sorry, officers. My husband is not feeling well today. He hopes that Officer Tao will be the only one to see him." Then she turned back and said to Yu Zijiang and Tao Lin.
The two of them rolled their eyes in unison.
In fact, everyone can see that the so-called "feeling unwell is just an excuse".
Yu Zijiang and Tao Lin looked at each other. There seemed to be some secret message hidden in their eyes. In just a moment, they both understood.
They decided to go along with Xia Yizhuo's wishes and see what he wanted to do.
"Okay, then I'll wait in the living room." Yu Zijiang said.
"If anything goes wrong, call me immediately." The moment Tao Lin passed by him, Yu Zijiang whispered in his ear.
Guan Yuhua sent him halfway. Tao Lin came to Xia Yizhuo's villa and remembered the location of Xia Yizhuo's reception room clearly.
After watching Tao Lin enter the reception room, Guan Yuhua walked back to the living room and greeted Yu Zijiang politely.
"Officer Yu, please sit down and I'll get you a cup of coffee." Guan Yuhua said.
"Thank you for your hard work." Yu Zijiang nodded politely.
When the pure white coffee cup was slowly pushed in front of Yu Zijiang, he once again saw Guan Yuhua's wrinkled skin burned by the fire through her swaying sleeves.
His heart was touched, and his divergent thoughts made Yu Zijiang couldn't help but think about it.
"Do you mind if I ask specifically about the injury on your hand?" Yu Zijiang asked.
The expression on Guan Yuhua's face froze, and she subconsciously hugged her left arm.
"I don't mean anything else. In fact, we are fellow patients." Yu Zijiang smiled, then turned around without hesitation, pulled up the long hair that covered his neck with his hands, and removed the ugly scar left by chasing the suspect.
, showed it to Guan Yuhua without reservation.
"Actually, there's nothing to say, it's just an accident." Guan Yuhua breathed a sigh of relief and whispered, sitting on the sofa opposite Yu Zijiang.
"Were you injured before you met Xia Yizhuo, or were you injured after meeting him?" Yu Zijiang asked next.
"I was injured after meeting him, but I fell in love with him only after I was injured." Guan Yuhua immediately answered Yu Zijiang's question.
Yu Zijiang nodded meaningfully: "It seems that Mr. Xia is really a good man..."
[She also specifically emphasized information that I had not asked about.] In fact, this is what Yu Zijiang thought in his heart.
Guan Yuhua looked at him with a smile, but did not speak for a long time. But there seemed to be a different meaning in the looks between the two people.
At the same time, in the living room on the second floor——
As soon as he opened the door, Tao Lin saw Xia Yizhuo sitting on the sofa by the window. The scene was almost exactly the same as the last time he saw Xia Yizhuo: the man on the sofa was leaning forward, with his arms folded on his thighs.
Stretching out his slender fingers, he fiddled with the chessboard on the coffee table.
Xia Yizhuo had just finished playing a game of chess and was busy returning the chess pieces to their positions, preparing to start the next game.
There was still a tablet computer on the coffee table, and the metal bracelet was still wrapped around his wrist. The sunlight outside shone through, and half of the chessboard was shadow and half was sunlight.
As Xia Yizhuo stretched out his hand, the engine blades on the metal chain reflected shining light.
There was no ring on his ring finger, and only the shoddy engine blades shone with the sunlight.
Tao Lin walked over, and before Xia Yizhuo started a new game of chess between humans and machines, he took off the tablet on the table and placed it on the sofa.
"Playing chess must be boring if you don't have anyone to play with you, right? How about I play chess with you?" Tao Lin said bluntly.
"Okay." Xia Yizhuo was very happy.
He stretched out his hand and asked Tao Lin to move the black chess piece first. Tao Lin was not polite to him, he just raised the corner of his mouth slightly and began to push the chess pieces neatly.
"I just heard from Mrs. Guan that Mr. Xia is not feeling well today, I don't think so?" Tao Lin said coldly while playing chess.
"So far, I have met three clients, and I am really tired and dizzy." Xia Yizhuo answered unhurriedly.
In fact, he looks very energetic.
