Dear Officer Zhuang

Chapter 186 Try harder

"We have to cherish our bodies. If we don't cherish our bodies, do we expect others to cherish us? In the end, we are the only ones who hurt and suffer."

After Wen Mi finished speaking, before Pang Xi refused again, she stuffed the umbrella into her hand.

"I'll go back first, you should go back earlier too." Wen Mi smiled brightly, opened her umbrella, and stepped into the rain curtain.

Pang Xi stared blankly at her figure disappearing into the heavy rain, recalling Wen Mi's last words, her heart was slightly touched.

Even the umbrella that Wen Miqiang stuffed into her hand seemed to have warmth, making her cold and dead heart feel a warmth, and slowly revived...

……

Wen Mi was not sure whether her approach and overtures to Pang Zhen this time would make Pang Zhen let go of his guard and be willing to get close to her.

Workday lunch break two days later.

As usual, Wen Mi was going to have lunch nearby with her colleagues.

They had just left the building when a timid voice called her.

"Warm, warm honey."

At first, Wen Mi thought she was hallucinating, so she didn't take it seriously.

Instead, the colleague who was with her patted her on the shoulder, and moved her chin in a certain direction: "She seems to be looking for you."

Wen Mi followed the direction pointed by her colleague and saw Pang Xi not far away.

Pang Xi was holding the umbrella she lent her that night, looking cramped and timid.

Wen Mi's eyes lit up, and she told her colleagues to eat, leaving her alone.

She went over to Pang Xi, smiled friendly and said, "Are you looking for me?"

Pang Xi nodded at a loss, and said in a low voice, "I'll return the umbrella. Thank you for lending me the umbrella last time."

Wen Mi smiled brighter, and took the umbrella from Pang Xi.

She said, "How do you know that I work here?"

"The first time you helped me...it was when I met a pervert on the subway, and you taught him a lesson...you told me at that time that your name is Wen Mi, and you are a reporter from Zhenzhi News Agency... ..." Pang Xi's expression became more and more uncomfortable, she thought that Wen Mi didn't remember what happened on the subway.

"I should have thanked you very much at that time, thank you for standing up for me and teaching the pervert/-wolf a lesson, but, I..."

Pang Xi couldn't continue.

She was ashamed to say why she didn't stand up when Wen Mi taught the pervert/-wolf, stood by Wen Mi's side, and reprimanded the pervert/-wolf together with her.

She has no face to say why she escaped from the subway when Wen Mi cared about her.

It's not that she doesn't appreciate Wen Mi, but that she really doesn't know how to deal with such a situation.

In this huge and bustling city, she was the only one.

Although she hates perverts/-wolves very much, she is more afraid of being troubled by the other party and revenge by the other party afterwards, so she dare not stand up.

She knew that she was cowardly and spineless, so when Wen Mi cared about her, she ran away.

The moment Wen Mi saw Pang Xi here, she guessed that Pang Xi had actually listened to what she had introduced herself to Pang Xi on the subway.

Wen Mi just asked Pang Xi like this on purpose to see her reaction.

Now, Pang Xi came here specially to return her umbrella.Does it mean that she has successfully approached Pang Xi little by little?

"Oh, like this." Wen Mi didn't intend to make things difficult for Pang Xi, and asked her to continue talking.

"I thought you didn't remember that I was the one who came out on the subway." Wen Mi said lightly, turning the matter over.

"Have you had lunch? Let's go to lunch together, it's nearby." Wen Mi invited.

Now that Pang Xi can come and return her umbrella, she might as well take the opportunity to try harder.

Pang Xi hesitated.

It stands to reason that Wen Mi has helped her twice, so she should be the one who invited Wen Mi to dinner.

However, she is really not good at dealing with this kind of thing, she is not good at dealing with people.

"Are you still going to work later?" Wen Mi asked.

Pang Xi shook his head: "I take turns off today."

Wen Mi nodded: "That's good, there is plenty of time, you can have dinner here."

Pang Xi made up his mind and mustered up the courage to agree: "Okay."

Wen Mi smiled brightly.

She followed Pang Xi for nearly a month, and finally made great progress.

……

Wen Mi took Pang Xi to a nearby small restaurant.

The price of this restaurant is affordable, the taste is good, and the price is very high.

Wen Mi was worried that Pang Xi would rush to pay, so she chose this restaurant with a relatively cheap price.

It was the peak time for lunch, and there were many people in the small restaurant, and the food was served very slowly.

Wen Mi and Pang Xi sat face to face, neither of them said a few words, the atmosphere was stagnant and awkward for a while.

Pang Xi had a dull and withdrawn personality, so she naturally wouldn't take the initiative to talk about it.

However, Wen Mi had to seize this opportunity to draw her relationship with Pang Xi closer.

If you can't make good use of this opportunity, who knows if there will be another opportunity, and when the next opportunity will be.

However, how can she get closer to her relationship with Pang Zhen, so that Pang Zhen is willing to reveal more to her, so that she can find the murderer who is about to kill Pang Zhen as soon as possible?

Wen Mi had a headache.

She had been thinking about these things in her heart, and she had no time to speak, and Pang Xi didn't speak, which made the atmosphere between them even more awkward.

Wen Mi became more and more anxious, and really couldn't think of a good countermeasure.

She could only send a message to Zhuang Xun and ask Zhuang Xun for help.

When Wen Mi sent a message to Zhuang Xun to explain her current situation, Pang Xi also lowered his head and pressed the phone interface, not knowing who he was chatting with.

Not long after Wen Mi's message was sent, Zhuang Xun replied to her.

[Zhuang Xun: Are you having dinner with Pang Xi now? 】

[Wen Mi: That's right, she's right across from me now, and we've both been sitting relatively silent for more than ten minutes]

[Wen Mi: What do you think I should talk to her in order to get closer to her? 】

[Wen Mi: I'm really worried that this meal is over, and I still haven't been able to get closer to her, so when will I find another chance to find the murderer in advance?]

When Wen Mi sent a message to Zhuang Xun, Zhuang Xun was eating while reviewing the information on the serial murder case.

The identity of the male deceased has just been determined, and now there is more and more evidence that the case of the male deceased is most likely related to the serial murder case.

Therefore, he re-read the files of the first three victims to see if there were any new discoveries.

When he was flipping through the files on Pang Xi's murder, Wen Mi sent him those messages.

He looked at Wen Mi's message that she was having dinner with Pang Xi, and then looked at the photo of Pang Xi's murder in the dossier, his expression was in a daze, and he felt emotional.

He quickly calmed down and thought about the question Wen Mi raised.

No matter for Wen Mi or the whole serial murder case, this time is indeed a good opportunity.

With a good grasp, Wen Mi can successfully close the relationship with Pang Xi, find out the murderer who killed Pang Xi, and the serial murder case can be solved in advance, and three innocent people can be rescued.
