Type-R?!
Gu Yiran knew a lot about cars, but she wasnt as experienced as Lin Yi.
Naturally, she had heard of the Type-R before.
If that was the case, her car would definitely not be able to beat his.
Are you sure?
It feels a little like it. Gao Mingjun said.
The thing is that you havent caught up to him yet. Thats very telling.
No matter what he is driving, I want to chase after him!
After hanging up the phone, Gu Yiran stepped on the accelerator.
She felt that Gao Mingjun must have misjudged him as she didnt think that Lin Yi would drive such a good car.
But reality gave her a resounding slap to wake her up.
Even when she reached the finish line, she couldnt catch up to Lin Yi.
Moreover, the distance between the two of them remained fixed at dozens of meters.
What infuriated Gu Yiran the most was that Lin Yi seemed to be deliberately controlling the speed of his car.
It was not very harmful, but it was extremely insulting.
After getting out of the car, Gu Yiran looked unnatural.
Are you kidding me? Its clearly a Type-R, and youre calling it a Civic!
How is it not a Civic? Thats exactly what this is.
Nonsense, since when do Civics come with AMG calipers?
Yep, thats how we outfit our Civic, Lin Yi replied.
But 1 think all this talk is pointless. Lets just stick to our agreement. The plastic bag is still in your car? Lets not waste time.
Dont worry, I, Gu Yiran, can afford to lose if I dare to play!
After returning to the back of the car, Gu Yiran struggled for a while before coming down and handing the black bag to Lin Yi.
Lin Yi glanced at the design inside and threw it into the trash.
If Id known that was the case, I wouldnt have played with you. Theyre not even as good as those nice old ladies bloomers.
You!
Bye-bye.
Lin Yi got into the car, waved to Gu Yiran, and drove away.
There werent many people at night, so he arrived at Li Chuhans house at around midnight.
The lights in the living room were still on, and he could see it from the outside. She was obviously waiting for Lin Yi to come back.
Next time something like this happens, dont wait for me. Ive got a key anyway. I can get in on my own.
I had to keep the light on in the house. I cant let you stumble around in the dark. Youll be lonely.
Lin Yi smiled and stroked Li Chuhans soft long hair.
Lets go. Weve been working hard all day. Lets sleep.
Okay.
Lin Yi washed up briefly. He wanted to wash away his bad luck after seeing a dead person in the day.
They were all superst.i.tions that he had learned from w.a.n.g Cuiping.
The next morning, when Lin Yi woke up, it was already past nine.
He saw Li Chuhan making breakfast in the kitchen.
Arent you working today?
Its a holiday. I have a day s.h.i.+ft tomorrow.
Do you have any plans for the holidays? Why dont I take leave to accompany you later?
No need, no need. Go about your business. Li Chuhan said.
I have an appointment with Xinxin. Well go shopping later.
Then Ill transfer you some money.
I have enough here. I dont need it.
Alright then.
Just as the two of them were talking, the sound of a door opening was heard from outside.
It was obvious that Qiao Xin had come to freeioad.
Other than Lin Yi, only Qiao Xin had Li Chuhans house key.
Ah, Brother Lin!
When she opened the door and saw Lin Yi, Qiao Xin was first surprised. Then, she winked and said,
Am I interrupting anything?
Youre already intruding.
Heh, well, theres nothing to be done about itIm already here. Might as well disturb you since Ive got thick skin.
You two sit down for a while. Breakfast will be ready soon.
Ill go help, Qiao Xin said.
No need. Itll be done soon. You dont have to help.
Then 1 wont stand on ceremony.
Qiao Xin sat on the sofa and looked at Lin Yi excitedly.
Brother Lin, didnt you become a police officer? Have there been any major cases recently? Its the kind of mysterious case. Tell me about it.
There is one. It happened yesterday.
Tell me about it.
After that, Lin Yi briefly explained the case to Qiao Xin, who fell into deep thought.
The problem now is that even if you find a clear murderer, you wont be able to do anything because of the lack of evidence.
Right, go on.
Lin Yi knew Qiao Xin very well. After watching Conan for so many years, her thoughts were already different from ordinary people.
She might really be able to come up with something.
Whether he committed suicide or lost his footing, he fell down by himself, Qiao Xin said.
You dont have evidence to accuse her of inducement, as theres no proof from the deceased at most, she might bear some a.s.sociated responsibility. As for how shell be judged, thats uncertain, but it likely wont be too severe.
Thats why we have to prove the exact cause of his death.
Brother Lin, was there a surveillance camera at the scene? Can 1 take a look?
I actually brought the surveillance footage back. Go and get the computer.
Okay, Qiao Xin said excitedly. Then, she went to Li Chuhans study and brought out her laptop.
As an old fan of Conan, she was both excited and excited to encounter such a thing in reality.
After loading the hard drive, Lin Yi leaned against the sofa. Qiao Xin stuck her head out and looked at it very carefully.
I can tell from the way he walks that hes definitely not behaving normally. Weve already a.n.a.lyzed this, and there are two possible causes for the situation. The first is alcohol consumption, and the second is the use of ketamine or similar drugs, which produced hallucinogenic effects.
Qiao Xin nodded noncommittally. As a professional doctor, she knew the effects of these drugs very well.
After watching for more than ten minutes, Qiao Xin rested her chin on her hand and said,
It seems like nothing definitive was found. He fell on his own, and regardless of who the perpetrator might be, you cant convict anyone without solid evidence.
Thats the problem.
The two of them fell into deep thought since they had arrived at the same dead end.
Lets eat first. Well talk about this after were done, Li Chuhan said.
Okay, Ill help carry the dishes.
Li Chuhan made two lists of side dishes. There were also buns and soy milk. These were typical Huaxian dishes.
Sister Li, hows the new house? Is there anything I can help with? Qiao Xin asked.
Its nearly time. I can take a look at the house today.
Aiyaya, Brother Lin, although Im not as big as Sister Li, why dont you make do with it and take me in? Qiao Xin said enviously.
I dont want such a big house. I just need a few dozen square meters. Give me a home too.
Lin Yi and Li Chuhan looked at each other and smiled.
That will depend on your performance.
Come on, Brother Lin, sit in the center. And these dishes, why are they placed in front of me? They have to be placed in front of Brother Lin
Halfway through her sentence, Qiao Xin stopped talking and her expression turned strange.
Whats wrong? Are you feeling unwell? Li Chuhan asked.
Qiao Xin shook her head and looked at Lin Yi seriously.
Brother Lin, I think I noticed something wrong..
