Genius club - #186 - Genius Club Chapter 47 Living Together (1/3)
“That’s it, Lin Xian, you go back and pack your personal belongings today. From now on, our special investigation team will adopt a high-intensity centralized office mode… There is no time for work and off work. We will not get off work until the case is solved, so… we all If we want to live here, there is a dormitory specially arranged for us at the back.”
“You want to live here?” Lin Xian was a little surprised:
“The secondment letter didn’t say anything about these things.”
“Are you in trouble?”
“That’s not true.” Lin Xian shook his head:
“It’s just that I didn’t expect that the investigation team’s work schedule would be so tight, and they weren’t even allowed to go home.”
Ji Lin lowered his head and smiled, then walked over and patted Lin Xian on the shoulder:
“Lin Xian… Now that we are colleagues, I can tell you many things directly. In fact, letting you live here and be under our surveillance 24 hours a day… is also to protect you. of.”
“Protect me?” Lin Xian smiled inexplicably:
“Is it possible that someone wants to kill me?”
“It’s not that kind of protection.” Ji Lin shook his head:
“[This is to help you rule out the suspicion of the murderer.]”
“As I said just now, Lin Xian, there is almost no clue to advance the death cases of Xu Yun and Tang Xin. As the most direct party in the two cases, the exact last scene of intervention, and the one who intervened before the incident, He also had frequent contact with the two of them, and ultimately gained huge benefits…”
“Although there is currently no evidence that you planned all of this, if you think about it from the perspective of the police, it is a case with no breakthrough, and you have many coincidentally overlapping clues… They have doubts about you. It’s a matter of course.”
“So, during this period of time, you stay in the bureau, live in the bureau, and stay with me. It’s best if we can solve the case during this period. If we can’t solve the case and similar cases appear outside, then that’s okay. It proves that this series of events has nothing to do with you, and your suspicion will naturally be cleared by then. “
…
Lin Xian didn’t speak.
This kind of plot was something he had never thought of before coming here.
He originally thought that if Ji Lin was the murderer behind everything, he was just calling him here to find out his flaws.
Unexpectedly, this guy forcibly tied himself to him for a reason that seemed real and fake, and monitored him 24 hours a day in the name of protecting himself.
This is no longer just a Hongmen Banquet, it is simply house arrest.
“Are we still going to be locked up with a chain? We have to go to the toilet and take a shower together?” Lin Xian teased with a smile.
Then he picked up the black notebook in his hand and threw it on the table:
“Are you still doubting that this notebook of mine is a Death Note? Can I kill people by writing their names?”
“You have read too many Japanese comics, Lin Xian.”
Ji Lin smiled and said:
“You understand a little bit of my painstaking efforts, and a little bit of the difficulties faced by the Donghai police. Now that the whole society is condemning their inaction, they have to do something, right?”
“Of course we won’t restrict you from dying like this. You can go out if you have something to do, but I hope you’d better take me with you. If there is another similar death of a scientist outside, I can testify for you at any time.”… . .
“Of course, I personally hope that you’d better not go out and concentrate on solving the case… The sooner the murderers of Xu Yun and Tang Xin are caught, it will be a good thing for both of us. “
“Fine.”
Lin Xian responded casually.
If you don’t enter the tiger’s den, you won’t catch the tiger’s cubs, so come and have a good meeting with Ji Lin.
Now the two of them are basically pretending to be confused.
Lin Xian wanted to catch Ji Lin, and Ji Lin also wanted to catch Lin Xian, but neither side had concrete evidence, so being forced to stay together 24 hours a day was not all bad for Lin Xian.
because……
While Ji Lin was getting to know Lin Xian, Lin Xian was also getting to know Ji Lin.
It depends on who is more careful, who is more cautious, and who can piece together a complete jigsaw puzzle faster from the fragments of small talk.
“Then I’ll go home and get the toiletries now.” Lin Xian turned around and walked out the door:
“Anyway, it’s getting hot now, so there’s no need to prepare too many things. I’ll be back in the evening.”
…
arrive home.
Rather than packing away his clothes, Lin Xian immediately started checking all the papers on the desk and in the drawers.
Although he usually burns the fire promptly, now that he has fallen under the suspicion of the Donghai police, it is difficult to guarantee whether they will search the room while he is under house arrest.
Almost burning everything that came with it, Lin Xian looked at the fake Genius Club invitation in his hand and the wax wax block embossed with the Genius Club’s seal.
Do you want to burn them together?
Lin Xian hesitated…
Although this invitation was fake, it was the only clue he had related to the Genius Club.
What’s more, the club seal on this wax wax block is real, exactly the same as the pattern on the moon in the dream.
“It’s better to keep it, but you can’t keep it at home.”
Lin Xian stuffed these two things into his backpack, then took a taxi to MX Company.
You should also check the things in your office…
All waste paper, manuscript paper, and paper on which reasoning has been written before are burned.
–u003eu003e
Then, he sat in the office, waiting for Zhao Yingjun to get off work.
After watching Zhao Yingjun’s Alpha leave the company, he directly picked up the fake genius club invitation letter and the paint seal, went to the elevator, pressed the 22nd floor button, and came to Zhao Yingjun’s office.
Click!
The thick double-layer password door opened, and Lin Xian entered the empty and tidy office.
Although this is Zhao Yingjun’s office, all the layouts inside are neatly arranged by Lin Xian, so… Lin Xian is much more familiar with this office than Zhao Yingjun himself.
He directly opened a file cabinet in the corner, then took out a file box from the penultimate floor and put the fake invitation letter and the lacquer seal in it.
“Perfect.”
Lin Xian smiled slightly.
Zhao Yingjun’s office is the most suitable place to hide this fake invitation.
First of all, the fake invitation itself was given to Zhao Yingjun, so it was reasonable for it to appear in her office.
Secondly, Lin Xian knew Zhao Yingjun’s habits very well. She would never touch this filing cabinet in her life, and her things were safe here.
In the end, only he and Zhao Yingjun know the password of this office. At most, there is another oriole, who is not an enemy. He can come and go as he pleases, making him perfect for hiding things. …. .
After everything was ready, Lin Xian put a backpack containing personal toiletries and a change of clothes on his back and took a taxi to the Donghai City Public Security Bureau.
…
“…”
Standing at the open door of the double dormitory with Ji Lin, Lin Xian was speechless.
“No, we two sleep in the same room?”
Lin Xian turned to look at Ji Lin, who was slightly hunched over and yawning:
“Are we two going to live in this dormitory?”
“Any questions?”
Ji Lin pointed to a twin-bed layout that is the same as a hotel standard room. The two large beds are arranged in the north and south of the house. All other facilities are available, including independent bathrooms, and there are two desks with computers. In fact, it depends on the grade. In other words, it is still very advanced.
only……
“I thought we would all live in single rooms.” Lin Xian snorted softly:
“I’m not very used to sleeping in a room with other men.”
“You want me to find another woman for you?”
“Your thinking is very clear.”
“If you really mind, I can have someone draw a curtain between the two beds.”
“That’s not necessary.”
Lin Xian waved his hand and threw his backpack on the bedside table by the window.
This is Ji Lin’s territory. The Donghai police are now under his command, so there is no point in complaining. This is their planned surveillance plan… Since there is no point in raising opinions, let’s just not mention it.
Through peripheral vision…
He caught a glimpse of Ji Lin closing the door to the dormitory, then lying on his back on the other bed with his eyes closed to relax.
He understands.
This cat-and-mouse game is really about to begin.
“I’m going to wash up first.”
It was getting late, so Lin Xian found his toiletries and went to the bathroom to wash up.
He thought as he brushed his teeth.
In fact, he was quite secretive in all aspects. The only thing that made Ji Lin aware of something abnormal was——
[I will always wake up on time at 00:42].
This is something very unusual and beyond your control, and others may not care much about it. But the person across the bed was the genius mystery novelist Ji Lin… It was impossible for him not to notice.
Ji Lin is so smart, it’s hard to guarantee that he will be able to deduce any details from his abnormal behavior of being unable to wake up after falling into a dream and coming out of the dream at 00:42.
That would be dangerous.
so……
[Stay up late] Let’s do it.
Lin Xian plans to revive the trick he used as a child to avoid dreaming – just stay up until 00:42 and then go to sleep.
…
night.
Early morning.
Ji Lin was lying on his back on the bed next to him, with his hands on the back of his head and his eyes closed. He didn’t know what he was thinking or whether he was asleep.
On the other side of the bed, Lin Xian was wearing headphones and scrolling through his phone, preparing to go to bed after 00:42.
“Lin Xian, aren’t you going to sleep?”
In the darkness, Ji Lin turned over on the other side of the bed and looked at Lin Xian.
Through the diffuse reflection of the phone, Lin Xian saw Ji Lin’s bright eyes, plus the faint dark circles around his eyes… He knew that this guy was obviously a night owl and a champion of staying up late.
Okay, let’s all act.
This room is not big, and every one of them is a movie star.
This year the Oscars will be awarded here.
“I usually sleep late.” Lin Xian took off his headphones and sat up from the bed leaning on the pillow: …. .
“Did it disturb your sleep?”
“That’s not true.” Ji Lin shook his head and sat up from the bed at the same time, leaning on the bedside and looking at Lin Xian:
“My mind is quite confused. I have been thinking about the case. There is one thing that I can’t figure out and I don’t have any clue.”
“What is it?”
Lin Xian turned off his phone and turned to look at Ji Lin.
The room was dark, and only the moonlight, as thin as silk, shone through the gaps in the untightened curtains… turned into little bits of pulsating fluorescence, and fell on Ji Lin under the gentle caress of the curtains.
“I don’t understand why the murderers must control the time of the crime to 00:42.”
Ji Lin–u003eu003e
He held his chin and said softly:
“The time of death of Tang Xin and Xu Yun was between 00:42 and 00:43. Not to mention that this is a time point that is difficult to control accurately. What is the significance of this time point itself?”
“The murderer’s thoughts are often difficult to guess.” Lin Xian said casually:
“Maybe this point in time has extraordinary significance to him. Just like many murderers will deliberately leave special symbols and special items at the assassination scene, just to prove that I did this case. There is a The mentality of showing off or showing off.”
“It’s just to show off and show off. There is no need to lock in the time of the crime. There are other smarter and more covert methods.” Ji Lin shook his head and expressed his opinion:
“Just like what you said, it is enough to leave special symbols and special items. There is no need to fix the time of the crime at 00:42. This is not only easy to attract attention, but also directly tells the police the time of the next crime. “It’s also a very dangerous behavior for the murderers themselves.”
Lin Xian looked at Ji Lin in the darkness: “Then what do you think…”
“I even think that the murderers’ weird killing methods were deliberately shown to someone, just like holding a ceremony or passing some kind of exam.” Ji Lin paused and continued:
“[My parents also died at 00:42.]”
“Real or false?” Lin Xian was a little surprised. He didn’t know whether what Ji Lin said was true or false, and he had never considered the deeper meaning of the murders at 00:42. He didn’t understand why Ji Lin wanted to confess to him. These:
“Is it also a car accident?”
Ji Lin shook his head:
“It was not a car accident. So I have never been sure whether the murderer who killed my parents 20 years ago and the murderer who killed Xu Yun and Tang Xin now are the same kind of people.”
“It was a shooting that happened at 00:42. The gangsters killed my parents on their way home. After that, I became an orphan and was sent to an orphanage. I was raped by a now famous big shot. adoption.”
Ji Lin changed his position and faced Lin Xian:
“Ji Xinshui.”
He smiled and looked into Lin Xian’s eyes:
“Have you ever heard of that name?”
