Mystery

The motorcycle sped past Guangxi Garden, circled a few times on the winding mountain road, passed through a large carved iron gate, circled a very abstract fountain, and stopped in front of a pure white modernist style villa .

As soon as the ignition was turned off, a sprinting husky rushed out and bumped its head on Shen Ke's stomach.

Before she could touch the slick dog's head, it pulled itself out again, chasing a red Frisbee and rushing away.

Shen Ke rubbed her stomach, and the corners of her mouth couldn't help twitching.

The room was very quiet, the sunlight came in from the window and fell on the oil paintings on the wall.

"Xiao Ke is here, wash your hands for a while and eat. I specially asked Auntie to make your favorite braised pork ribs. There are lychees on the table. They were just flown in this morning. They are very fresh."

"On Monday, I asked someone to send a few boxes directly to your office, and you share them with your new colleagues. By the way, Xiaoye helped you find that hard-to-buy book."

Xiaoye's name is Ye Lang, and he is Lu Ye's special assistant. He usually takes care of major and minor matters.

After the Xinghe Road tragedy, Shen Ke has been living with her uncle Lu Ye.Ye Lang was there when Lu Ye hadn't "turned stone into gold" when Lu invested in this halo.

He was in his forties, Lu Ye looked more like a university teacher than a businessman, with a bookish look all over his body.

In recent months, he has been on a business trip abroad, and he didn't return to Nanjiang until yesterday.

Shen Ke's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he looked towards Lu Ye.

He was wearing a champagne-colored silk shirt, sitting on the couch next to the bed, facing a pile of broken china, mending it.It's like a child playing with a jigsaw puzzle, holding a tile for a long time without starting.

For this treasure vase, Lu Ye has been working hard for several years, and it has not been repaired until now.

"Uncle, where are the books?"

Lu Ye wiped his hands with a warm towel, stood up from the couch, looked at Shen Ke and frowned, "You will have time to look at it when you go back at night, you are a big man, why don't you know how to take care of yourself?"

"It feels like you are much thinner than before, and you have dark circles under your eyes. Is the work of the special case team very busy and tiring? Don't work too hard."

Shen Ke said "Oh", and sat obediently in front of the coffee table. There was a large glass bowl on top of the coffee table, which was filled with already peeled lychees. She picked up a fork and forked one and stuffed it into her mouth.

A stream of sweet juice immediately filled the entire mouth, causing her to squint her eyes like a satiated cat.

It was rare for Lu Ye to see Shen Ke's childish look, his eyes widened in surprise, and then he laughed.

"It seems that you like the special case team very much."

Shen Ke shook his head, "One is old-fashioned, one is a holy father, one is an idiot, and one is a primary school student."

Listening to Shen Ke's evaluation, Lu Ye couldn't stop laughing, "This evaluation is considered high for you."

Shen Ke crossed Lizhi's hand, looked up at Lu Ye in surprise, "Really?"

Lu Ye nodded, "That's not it! Remember the first day you just entered the junior class, I asked you how your new classmates were doing? What did you say? The tone was very heavy, if these are the outstanding ones , the future of mankind is very worrying.”

Lu Ye recalled the serious look of the little Shen Ke back then, and couldn't help but sigh.

"A holy father? Are you talking about Qi Huan from Qi's real estate? What do you think of him? I've seen the photos. The young man looks pretty good, and he's a good match with us."

"The most important thing is to be like-minded with you. I don't want to leave my family property. I insist on becoming a policeman. When I met Qi Huan's father, it was really hard to see, and my eyes were full of tears..."

Shen Ke gestured a big fork in the air with both hands, and continued to stuff a lychee into her mouth.

Blind date?

"Uncle likes him, you can go on a blind date by yourself," Shen Ke said seriously.

Lu Ye raised his hands dumbfounded when he heard the words, "Stop! Eat well."

Shen Ke listened, and glanced at the oil portrait of Lu Hui hanging on the wall. At that time, she was still a frail little girl, and it was painted by her grandfather.It's a pity that he disappeared before he finished the painting. What hangs on the wall now is an unfinished remnant.

Next to the oil portrait, there is another painting, which shows a woman in a wedding dress.

She was wearing an old wedding dress from the Republic of China period, and she looked like a lady from a rich family in Shanghai.This painting was drawn by my uncle Lu Ye. The person in the painting is his fiancée who died of illness a long time ago.

Lu Ye hasn't been married for so many years, and he doesn't have a girlfriend who officially appeared in front of Shen Ke.

There are four oil paintings on the wall, in which there are four women.

Grandmother, sister, fiancée, Shen Ke, and Yu Luye's four most important people are all hung on the wall.

Shen Ke sometimes thought that if she died in the line of duty, Lu Ye would be able to use the portrait he asked someone to paint on her birthday as her death portrait.

Lu Ye noticed Shen Ke's gaze, and his eyes dimmed a bit.

However, he quickly adjusted himself, the servants at home had already served all the dishes, and neither of them sat down to eat politely.

Lu Ye is in charge of the Kehui Group, and he is very busy with work. Just after dinner, the phone calls keep coming.Shen Ke didn't make a sound, silently took those rare tomes related to "cryptography", and rode back to Guangxi Garden.

It's almost one o'clock at noon. If it were a normal day, people would be able to fry the oil.

But today was a cloudy and rainy day, and the rain fell intermittently. When Shen Ke entered the door, a layer of goose bumps appeared on his arms.

The room was a bit dark, and Ya Li's eyes seemed to have changed color. Shen Ke flicked on the light, and the big orange cat moved its noble back to make way for Shen Ke.

As soon as the door was closed, the crackling raindrops hit the glass window, and the torrential rain fell.

Shen Ke glanced out the window, and the doorbell rang suddenly.

She frowned, opened the door and looked, but saw Li Yuan standing at the door like a drowned rat, holding a big thermos box in his hand.

"Have you gone on a blind date with the Dragon King of Nanjiang?"

Li Yuan helplessly pointed to the slap marks on his face.

Shen Ke let the door open, "It seems that your blind date has practiced iron sand palm!"

Li Yuan handed the insulation box to Shen Ke, "I won't go in, don't get your floor wet, and you didn't give me an umbrella! Why don't you say that you are the Dragon King who practiced Iron Sand Palm? I didn't go."

"I haven't eaten three meals, don't you want to come back to make a living? Good guy, guess what I saw? The little old man is cooking a full Chinese New Year feast while I'm not at home! Stewed pork knuckle and stewed beef, he even The fried ribs are all on top."

"He is old and has three highs. I will give you some points. Otherwise, if you don't sleep in the middle of the night, you will eat it all. Don't you live alone? Put it in the refrigerator, and put a few pieces in it when you come back to eat noodles. At any rate, it is better than braised beef. The beef in instant noodles is big!"

Shen Ke stared blankly at the insulation box in her arms, "I don't know how to cook noodles."

Li Yuan was startled instantly, "This is impossible, what do you eat if you don't cook noodles?"

"Guess why instant noodles are called instant noodles, not boiled noodles?" Shen Ke said confidently.

Li Yuan paused, quickly picked up an umbrella that Shen Ke had placed by the door, "Let's go, don't worry about the box, just wash it up and return it to me after eating, and you can eat instant noodles in boiling water. "
