Waiting For The Wind Warming Up To Kiss You - Chapter 21
Tang Xin opened the door and Fu Xueli lay on the dining table, motionless as if she was asleep. There was an empty bowl of porridge in front of her, and there was no time to clean it up.
Without saying a word, Tang Xin reached out and pushed her shoulder, “Wake up, why are you sleeping here? You are not afraid of catching a cold.”
Fu Xueli buried her head between her arms for a long time before raising her to look at her.
“…”
Tang Xin was startled, seeing Fu Xueli’s eyelids red and swollen and her face pale. The whole person was in a trance, and he was slightly drunk while breathing, not knowing how long he had been crying last night. She frowned, “No, Fu Xueli, haven’t you always been the most free and easy, this time just a little bit of negative news hit you like this?”
“No.” Fu Xueli straightened up slowly, she felt extremely tired, extremely weak, her throat was so dumb that she could not speak, “Why are you here?”
Tang Xin got up and went to the refrigerator in the kitchen to get a bottle of low-alcohol wine. He took a glass and poured it, and asked casually, “Have you been online recently.”
“No.” Fu Xueli leaned sideways on the back of the chair, her hair messed up, her fingers rubbed the smooth bowl of noodles, and she stared for a while.
She listened to Tang Xin’s speech from time to time, and there was a mess in her mind.
The last night Xu Xingchun’s eyes looked at her before he left.
From the stormy waves to the final silence. It seemed that the last light went out.
The back of him when he left calmly was reflected in her eyes, more like a hot pain.
I felt my heart twitching, and my chest hurt. She also didn’t expect that she would be so cruel that she would actually push Xu Xingchun to this point.
For a moment, Fu Xueli thought about regretting it, so she simply turned back and kept him like this out loud, but then returned to the basket rationally.
Her previous sentence had already blocked the way for the two of them. How could she be so heartless, pestering him cheeky, and then watching Xu Xingchun continue to sink in pain.
It would be good for him to give up on her sooner.
Tang Xin watched Fu Xueli distracted again and didn’t care. She continued to whisper to herself, with a faint smile on her face, “Heh, you know, Ming Heqi didn’t commit suicide because of love at all. The police have released the news. “
“What?!” Fu Xueli’s free thoughts were instantly pulled back, “What’s the situation?”
“The details are still confidential, I don’t know too much, but it’s confirmed that Ming Heqi was killed.” Tang Xin fiddled with her nails carelessly. There will be people who cheated on He Lu. Don’t think of letting you take the sack for nothing. It’s impossible for the person who is stepping on me to be in the high position.”
“Oh, by the way, don’t worry, the internet is changing very fast, one day. As soon as today is over, I am sure that tomorrow I will show you a tag of ‘apologies to Fu Xueli’ on Weibo.”
“…”
Tang Xin finished the last drink and put down the cup, “Okay, this matter is temporarily over. I have a project in my hand next month, and it is estimated that I will go abroad for a month. You should have enough rest for a few days at home, right? I will send you WeChat for the next announcement.”
After what can be said to be the annual drama, the entertainment news on the Internet has been overwhelming. Taking advantage of the high popularity, Tang Xin arranged a press conference for Sydney as soon as possible, and several fans also entered the venue.
In the middle of the interview, a male fan suddenly shouted hoarse and burst into tears: “——Fu Xueli!!! The whole world owes you a sorry!”
“……”
Fu Xueli was answering the question, but suddenly heard this buddy’s rough and heartbreaking voice, and suddenly felt a little funny. I couldn’t help stopping for a while, controlling his facial expressions, and there was no sound of laughter.
But the reporter below couldn’t hold back, in twos and threes, the scene laughed easily. The atmosphere was relaxed a lot.
Some Internet media continued to ask questions, “Then I would like to ask you and He Lu——”
“——Sorry, we have already given a unified reply before. Our artist and Mr. He Lu did not communicate privately. They just stopped at the relationship between colleagues and did not answer similar questions. Sorry.” A staff member nearby interrupted the reporter politely.
Fu Xueli was quiet and silent. After a while, she picked up the microphone and said seriously, “I only say it once at the end. Since I debuted, I have never developed a relationship with anyone in the circle.”
A press conference ended smoothly and without success. In the afternoon, Fu Xueli had to rush to another place to shoot a MV. The lunch break was very short, and he had to eat and make up and change clothes.
Continuous high-intensity work, almost every day in rush to announce. Fu Xueli felt tired and couldn’t support it. Set a fifteen-minute alarm clock, and fall asleep on the sofa.
There seemed to be people coming and going, and the noisy sound was sometimes strong and weak. When she was groggy, Fu Xueli touched her phone to check the time when she got up. Xixi sent a few messages half a minute ago:
“Sister Sydney, the ticket is already in hand, and the luggage is packed~ I’m waiting for you in the car^^”
Go down the elevator and enter the underground parking garage. Fu Xueli took the phone and walked to the address that Xixi just sent.
“Xiao Fang, Xiao Fang.” Xixi pushed the door in, and Xiao Fang was alone in the empty dressing room. She looked around, “Did you see where Sister Sydney is? I don’t know where I dropped my mobile phone and I can’t contact her.”
Xiao Fang looked up and wondered, “Huh? I just saw Sydney put on a little makeup and went out. Didn’t I go to the bathroom?”
“When?” Xixi asked anxiously when the time was running out. “The road is a bit blocked now. I’m afraid I will miss the plane by then.”
Xiao Fang thought for a while, “It seemed like fifteen minutes ago.”
East Street Garden residential area.
“Does the suspect live here?” Liu Bo closed the door of the police car and looked at the half-dilapidated old-fashioned house.
Lin Jin nodded solemnly, “It should be correct.”
They have fought against criminals for so many years. From the beginning, although they noticed that Ming Heqi’s affairs are not simple, they have never had a clue.
The Internet has been hype about this matter again, which made them feel overwhelmed for a while. After initially determining that Ming Heqi did not commit suicide, the case was full of doubts and contradictions.
No clues that could be compared were left at the scene, plus the fact that every population who appeared at the hotel that day was basically the same, and there was nothing wrong with it. So after watching the video repeatedly, assuming the crime scene, and finally investigating the target, the suspect was actually Ming Heqi’s assistant.
The thin girl who fainted from crying when she was taking transcripts at the police station.
“Although I haven’t found the suspect’s motive for committing the crime yet, this assistant must have nothing to do with Ming Heqi’s death.” Lin Jin said affirmatively, “She must have lied to us. It was in a street near the hotel. Surveillance video shows that on the afternoon of August 17, Zhu did not go out at all, but stayed in a black Honda, waiting for half an hour after the incident to return.”
“Go up and take a look.” Xu Xingchun said aside.
Zhu Xia’s home is on the third floor. It is a rather roundabout suite. Several police officers who handled the case looked around this place, the walls were already mottled, and the corners were wrapped with spider webs. Obviously it is hot summer, but there is a hint of coldness here.
“Knock on the door.” Liu Jingbo stood by the door and silently took out his gun. Others also consciously hid on the sides.
Xiao Wang took two deep breaths and knocked twice on the door.
After waiting for half a minute, there was no response, so he raised his hand and tapped twice.
Still no response, Xiao Wang was about to listen closely, and Lin Jin, who was silent next to him, couldn’t help but reminded him, “Press the doorbell.”
“…” Xiao Wang was a little embarrassed, glanced at them, and reached out to ring the doorbell.
There should be no one at home. Liu Jingbo made eye contact with a few people, and finally decided to break in.
As soon as the heavy anti-theft door opened, everyone present took a breath after seeing the house clearly.
All overwhelmingly greeted with He Lu’s large and small portrait photos. Xu Xingchun bent down, picked up a crumpled paper ball, and opened it.
He Lu’s name is written densely with black water-based pens.
Xiao Wang sighed, “It’s so scary, I didn’t expect this Zhu to be a crazy fan of He Lu. I remember Ming Heqi is not He Lu’s girlfriend?”
In fact, after seeing this, Lin Jin and others have simply formed a simple judgment on this case in their minds. At this time, investigators found a fruit knife with blood stains in the house. He put the fruit knife in the collection belt, “This should be the knife that Ming Heqi cut her wrist at that time. I’ll take it back and compare the blood and DNA on it. The result will be confirmed.”
Lin Jin nodded.
Liu Jingbo continued to wander around this small room. Zhu Xia should seldom be at home and pay no attention to personal hygiene. Dust fell in many places and the kitchen was messy. He sneaked from the bathroom to the living room, turned his head, and saw Xu Xingchun standing motionless by the bedroom door.
“Why, what’s new in Team Xu?” He stepped forward.
Looking around, Liu Bo followed Xu Xingchun’s vision and saw two large posters in the bedroom. One of them is Ming Heqi, whose face has been scratched by sharp objects. And another one–
Liu Jingbo’s hairs stood up.
Although the eyes of the woman on the poster had been dug out, only two black holes were left, which Liu Jingbo recognized immediately.
This person is Fu Xueli.
——Not good, I guess something happened!
Xiao Wang, who was dialing with his mobile phone, hadn’t waited for Fu Xueli’s call to be connected for a long time, and dialed a few more times, all of which were not in the service area.
The people around him were staring at the call nervously, and Xiao Wang’s palms gradually sweated, “Their celebrities are very busy. Maybe they haven’t looked at their phones for a while. Isn’t it normal to not answer the phone?”
Lin Jin frowned, “Hurry up and inform the people around Fu Xueli. If you guessed correctly, the suspect should also know that he was exposed. The next target is likely to be her, and the chance of a crime is high.”
“Don’t worry.” Liu Jingbo wanted to say something. He caught Xu Xingchun’s expression and opened his mouth. “Hurry up and contact the bureau and ask them to call out the mobile phone numbers of Assistant Fu Xueli and his manager.”
The movement was very fast over there, and two strings of numbers came in a short while.
Xiao Wang hit a display to shut down. Dumbfounded, he dialed another one, Tang Xin picked it up immediately, “Hello?”
“Hello, we are the police of the Public Security Bureau of Jinliang District, Shencheng. That’s right. I want to ask, is Fu Xueli by your side now?”
The voice of the people over there was very anxious, “Fu Xueli is not next to me, and the phone is turned off. I don’t know where it is! Not at home, and now we are going to adjust the parking garage monitoring records!”
The mobile phone was put out. Hearing this sentence, the people present were speechless, and their hearts sank suddenly.
As soon as Liu Jingbo raised his head, before he could say anything, he saw Xu Xingchun’s back disappearing at the door.
–
An abandoned factory on the outskirts of the city was filled with dirty gasoline cans. Fu Xueli was awakened by a basin of cold water. Her consciousness went from vague to gradually sober, with a towel in her mouth.
The whole person shook.
The consciousness before the coma gradually returned to his mind.
She went to the parking lot…then walked a few steps, turned the corner and was patted on the shoulder, and as soon as she turned her head, a piece of medicated gauze covered it.
Enduring the severe pain in her whole body, she felt like she fell apart, and she tasted a **** rust smell in her mouth. His wrist was tied to a chair, and he couldn’t move.
Looking up and looking around, the sky is already dark. The incandescent chandelier above his head flickered, wondering what the **** it was.
“What do you look at?” The person next to him lost the bucket, slapped Fu Xueli’s face, and slapped Fu Xueli’s face. “I finally woke up?”
Seeing the pair of scissors dangling in front of him, Fu Xueli had a splitting headache and let out a cold sweat. He closed his eyes desperately, wondering whether it was more fearful or dying.
She really never thought that such a thing as being kidnapped would happen to herself.
Zhu Xia walked to Fu Xueli’s face, raised her chin, her expression was crazy and cold, and she smiled, “Tsk tusk, look at how beautiful you are. What does He Lu like about you? If he likes it. Your face, if I scratch it now, okay?”
Neuropathy.
Fu Xueli froze for a while, clenching her teeth to prevent her from trembling.
After saying this, Zhu Xia was speechless again, and she didn’t know what she thought of. After being quiet for a few seconds, she slapped Fu Xueli again and said fiercely, “It’s true that you are a bitch. Don’t you like to seduce men? Don’t you like He Lu, why don’t you dare to admit it? You like to seduce men so much, I’ll call a man later, will you come in person?”
Fu Xueli clenched her fists quietly, vaguely, and said very hard, “You… better… just… kill… kill me.”
Seeing her embarrassed appearance, Zhu Xia was physically and mentally happy, pinching her neck, gradually adding gravity, “Do you think you will not die? Oh, right, do you know how Ming Heqi died? Don’t worry, wait for me to torture. After you are finished, I will let you taste this.”
Fu Xueli gradually felt a flash of white light in front of him, and gradually lost his strength, even breathing intermittently.
“Fuck, how could it be so fast, wicked! Are you **** good.” A sturdy bald man hurriedly returned from the window and interrupted them, “Why are you so tossing, now it’s alright, Tiao Zi It’s all here.”
“——Attention people inside, you are already surrounded.”
People outside were holding loudspeakers, and the factory echoed clearly.
“Hurry up and solve this woman.” The bald man was very irritable, and said angrily: “I shouldn’t have promised you. I didn’t get the money, and I got into the police!”
After half an hour of confrontation.
“The kidnapper finally agreed to let us go in and negotiate alone.”
Several police cars were parked a hundred meters away from the factory. Lin Jin wiped the sweat from his forehead, “Zhu Xia and Fu Xueli are inside, and there is an adult man.”
Just after I checked the surveillance video and confirmed that Fu Xueli disappeared in the parking garage, they quickly activated the heavy button investigation mechanism. The Criminal Investigation Detachment summoned the police to solve the case, and then tracked it all the way here.
Xu Xingchun’s temple bounced suddenly, without saying a word. He seemed to be in a trance.
“Wait.” Someone stopped him from moving forward, “I know your current mood. But Xu Xingchun, don’t be impulsive. You should wait for the negotiation expert. They are already on the way. This time the hostages are special. I bet they are not now. Dare to act recklessly. If you go in to rescue the hostages now, if you fail and cause the hostages to be killed, it will be a small matter to punish the hostages. How much pressure will the society face?!”
Liu Jingbo advised.
The voice of the rear monitor came from the headset, “No, the hostage feels almost dying, and is already in a semi-fainted state. Can’t wait that long, do you want to force into the door to rescue?”
“No, it’s too risky. One person has a gun in his hand, and another person seems to be in a bad mood. It’s easy to get into trouble.”
“The command center has issued an order, and it must be killed directly.”
The risk of being killed directly is actually very high. The first is that it is late at night and there are too many barriers around. The second is that the kidnappers are obviously very experienced and are firmly attached to the hostages being taken. If he is killed rashly, it is likely to hurt Fu Xueli.
The people in the factory were impatient and fired several shots in the air.
“Should we discuss what to do? Zhu Xia has a bomb tied to her body. She knows that she has a dead end. It is not a normal psychology at all. It may explode at any time. It is too dangerous to rush in right now—”
Xu Xingchun lowered his head. After being quiet for a while, I finally got a little reaction, “I’ll go in.”
Lin Jin suddenly lost his voice, looked at him for a few seconds, and sighed, “Okay.”
After seeing Xu Xingchun walk a few meters away, he couldn’t help but shout at his back, “Be careful!”
Fu Xueli was hugged tightly in front of her chest by the big bald man, and a sharp knife was pressed against her neck. Zhu Xia held a gun in both hands and pointed it at the young policeman who had just stepped in.
“Don’t move first.” Zhu Xia trembled, “Now you are not allowed to approach.”
Xu Xingchun looked at the bald man quietly, “I’m not here to negotiate, let her go, I can be your hostage.”
Fu Xueli was already soft, and could only be strangled, and her eyes had begun to blur. Hearing the familiar sound, she felt tight, barely opened her eyes, and kicked and kicked her feet.
“What are you doing, be honest.” The bald man was impatient, his elbows firmly fixed Fu Xueli’s head, and the sharp knife tightened against his throat again.
shocking.
“–Don’t move her!” Xu Xingchun gasped deeply between the sparks and flints, his throat was astringent, and his voice trembled, “Don’t move her, I can be your hostage.”
“She can’t hold on anymore… How long, you might as well change me. I am a policeman, take me hostage, people outside will not easily move you.”
The bald man followed along, glanced at Zhu Xia, and discussed, “How about…change it?”
Zhu Xia shook her head and looked at him up and down, “I’m afraid he is too cunning, he is a policeman, and his resistance is too strong to be changed.”
“You, throw everything on you. You can’t bring a gun!” Seeing Xu Xingchun standing still, Zhu Xia struck her neck.
An anxious voice came from the headset.
“——Xu Xingchun, you have to obey the command, you can’t act rashly like this.”
“—Wait, don’t throw your gun, be careful of any accidents!!! Work with them for a while.”
“——You are too dangerous like this. Calm down, the sniper is already in place.”
“Xu Xingchun.” Fu Xueli suddenly called his name, blinked, choked, tears dripping down her eyes.
“Xu Xing——”
Xu Xingchun lowered his eyes, turned off the walkie-talkie, and the last words came to an abrupt end. He took off his headset and threw it away.
As the three of them watched, the gun hit the ground heavily, and he slowly raised his hand.
