No one knew that she liked making tea, and it was not ruled out that someone specifically inquired about her preference, but no matter how she looked at it, this teapot was prepared for her.
Sure enough, there was a piece of yellow and white rice paper sandwiched in the teapot...
Ren Zixian's face didn't look good. Although the yellow rice paper was old, the handwriting was still new. It should have been made recently.
There is an address written on it: [Yihua Hospital]
There was a burst of white light in front of Ren Zixian's eyes, and an unprecedented sense of excitement spread down his spine, as if a gate suddenly found the slightest crack many years ago.
Lin Xuedi's sudden death four years ago was a huge blow to her, and Ren Zixian was confused for a long time.
One day she found an address in her textbook on a piece of paper that appeared on the table for no apparent reason.
Ren Zixian went over with the intention of giving it a try, and saw the sapphire-colored teapot, which was the birthday gift Lin Xuedi had promised her.
Ren Zixian recognized that this note was written by the same person as the previous note. As long as he went to Yihua Hospital, he might be able to find out the truth about Lin Xuedi's death.
When she arrived at Yihua Hospital as the note said, Lin Qingsong just called: "Where is it?"
"In the hospital, for review." Ren Zixian's expression remained unchanged, "Do you want to go home? I'll cook whatever you want to eat."
Lin Qingsong seemed to be pleased by her words: "Not yet, I'm very busy today, you don't have to wait for me for dinner, just go to bed and don't stay up late, you hear me?"
Ren Zixian agreed and then hung up the phone.
She looked at the number Lin Qingsong called, and it was indeed risky to follow a message from an unknown source.
But Li Shangshang's death was the only time in so many years that the situation was broken, and Ren Zixian didn't want to let go of the hard-earned clues.
Ren Zixian did not enter the waiting hall, but went directly downstairs from the direct elevator.
If the prediction was correct, the other party should want her to go directly to the morgue.
There is Li Shangshang's body there.
The emergency lights in the elevator were dimmed, so Ren Zixian stood in the elevator and slowly descended.
When the elevator door opened, there was no one at the front desk of the morgue. The pungent smell filled her nose. Ren Zixian held her breath and walked inside. The surroundings were quiet. Logically speaking, there would be people on duty to stay up late even at night, but Now the only sound here is Ren Zixian's own footsteps.
Ren Zixian walked around the front desk and entered the only morgue with an open door.
It was extremely cold in the morgue. Only one freezer was opened and a body was lying in it.
Ren Zixian opened the body bag. She had nothing to be afraid of. It was indeed Li Shangshang's body inside.
Li Shangshang had inconspicuous spots on his cheeks and varying degrees of aphtha around his mouth. He died of organ failure caused by fungal infection, so the appearance of his death was not good.
The cause of Lin Xuedi's death was the same, so Lin Xuedi probably also suffered from these symptoms.
Li Shangshang's body bag contained her autopsy report and various physical signs reports before her death.
Ren Zixian flipped back page after page, and they were all exactly the same as Lin Xuedi's report before his death!
Suddenly, a ringtone rang in the morgue. Ren Zixian found a ringing cell phone, and when he connected it, it was a man's voice: "Miss Ren, you are braver than I thought."
"Who are you?" Ren Zixian held her cell phone while making a call and walked out. She wanted to ensure that her cell phone had a signal to call for help at any time.
"Don't be nervous. Since we dare to let you come to the hospital, we will naturally not cause you any physical harm." The man seemed to know her actions, "I believe you have discovered the note from four years ago. It is also given to you by us, so please believe that we have no ill intentions towards you.”
"Just because it didn't exist four years ago doesn't mean it doesn't exist now." Ren Zixian said, "You probably didn't call me here just to show me an unknown corpse."
"Then let's get straight to the point." The man didn't talk nonsense. "Four years ago, we sent you Lin Xuedi's information in the hope that you could regain your strength and find out the truth about Lin Xuedi's death. But four years later, you are still To just linger around the edges of the truth is not our intention.”
Ren Zixian didn't speak, and the man on the other end chuckled: "Actually, we didn't consider how a student can integrate into the inner circle of Wenxiu in a short time. So we came to you this time, firstly because you appeared again Secondly, because my boss still has high hopes for you."
"Who is your boss?"
"You will see him when the time comes." The man said, "My boss doesn't want too many people to know that he is investigating this matter, so please don't cause trouble to him or yourself."
Ren Zixian's expression condensed: "Cooperation requires a cooperative attitude. If you want to use me to help you find out the cause of Lin Xuedi's death, then at least give me enough sincerity."
"I believe we gave enough sincerity four years ago." The man seemed to have heard some joke, "otherwise you might have died four years ago."
Ren Zixian stopped: "Did you prevent Lin Qingsong from finding me? In order for me to help you find out the cause of Lin Xuedi's death, you erased the traces of my relationship with Lin Xuedi, and forged a teapot and gave it to me four years ago. , but it turns out that under normal circumstances it is impossible to enter the core of the literary circle in a short period of time, so you came to me again?"
The man did not speak, and Ren Zixian pursed his lips: "Lin Xuedi is just my ex-boyfriend. Not to mention that I already have a boyfriend, why should I risk my life to cooperate with a guy who hides his head and hides his tail?"
"Ex-boyfriend?" The man seemed to have heard something funny. "If it's just an ex-boyfriend, why would you go to Lin Qingsong?"
Ren Zixian pursed his lips, and the man continued: "I don't understand the tricks of young people, but it shouldn't be that easy for you to use Lin Qingsong to enter the inner circle of literary and academic circles. What's more, if Lin Qingsong knows that you and Lin Xuedi Will he still help you sincerely?"
"I will consider this matter." Ren Zixian said.
"Smart people will of course make smart choices." The man praised, "A mystery requires a breakthrough, and you have just seen this breakthrough point."
"Li Shangshang is because of the paper..." Ren Zixian asked.
"I have to say that this possibility is very high," the man lamented. "She was unlucky. The paper she plagiarized happened to be the one Lin Xuedi was writing before his death, so it is very possible that someone thought she was Lin Xuedi's. Girlfriend. So we need a fresh face to look into this."
"Why me?" Ren Zixian glanced at the camera. She knew that the person was looking at her from behind the camera. "You can obviously choose more professional people to investigate, so why drag me, an ordinary person, into this?"
The man took a breath, as if he was smoking: "Ren Zixian, you are different. As long as I give you a glimmer of hope, you will pull out the shadow. We all hope that you are such a person. It can be said that my boss is here You made a huge bet, I hope we made the right bet."
Ren Zixian wanted to say something else, but the man interrupted her: "It's not beneficial to both parties to keep testing. We will prove to you that we can help you achieve your goals better than Lin Qingsong. The game of playing house with a substitute is still Stop it, even if he is the leader of the Zhu family, he cannot do what we can do to help you."
"Your boss wants me to break up with Lin Qingsong?"
"Whether we break up or not is your business, but," the man chuckled, "no matter what you think, Lin Qingsong has obviously regarded you as one of his own. Emotions that are difficult to control are not needed in this matter. What’s more, your relationship with Lin Xuedi can’t be hidden for long.”
Ren Zixian did not refute. After a moment of silence, he said, "I will consider it." Then he hung up the phone.
By the time Ren Zixian came out of Yihua Hospital, it was already dark. It was raining in the sky. This was not common in winter. The rain hit people with ice and snow. This reminded Ren Zixian of Lin Xuedi and the person she confessed to. It was also such bad weather at night.
She and Lin Xuedi met by chance. One was a poor student who was working everywhere and worried about the livelihood of himself and his grandma, and the other was a rich man who could enjoy life as much as he wanted.
At that time, my grandma was ill, and she had to travel to several places a day to earn money back.
Often in the early hours of the morning, I would drag myself back to my temporary cabin with my still conscious will.
That day, she didn't bring the key. Grandma's ears were not good and she couldn't hear her knocking on the door.
In an instant, all the grievances were like wild beasts waiting for an opportunity, pushing her to the ground.
Ren Zixian huddled in front of the door. He really didn't have the strength to knock on the door.
Later, Lin Xuedi, who temporarily lived next door to her, felt compassion and found her landlord to support her for a long time in the name of a tour guide.
Lin Xuedi is a gentle and kind person. After he returned to Yanshi, he did not cut off contact with Ren Zixian. Instead, he chose to go to Fengjing University to find Ren Zixian during the postgraduate entrance examination despite his family's objections.
Lin Xuedi confessed her love to Ren Zixian when she was a freshman, and the two of them got together naturally. At that time, Ren Zixian was only thinking about his grandma's illness and making money.
Studying microbiology is very hard, and you have to do experiments day and night. You are anxious about why the finished product is different from what you expected in the experiment, and how you can stand out from the crowd of scholars.
For a long time she was buried in the laboratory almost day and night.
Because of this, she and Lin Xuedi couldn't see each other for a month. Lin Xuedi felt sorry for her and asked her to transfer her school to Yanshi. There was his home, his parents and brother there, and Ren Zixian would no longer be anxious about the future.
But Ren Zixian refused, she didn't want to.
The two even had a fierce quarrel over this.
Even Xiao Gui, after Ren Zixian mentioned a breakup, Lin Xuedi pretended to be pitiful at the door of her house holding the wet puppy.
Lin Xuedi understands all her reluctance and weakness, and he can always persuade Ren Zixian to make the most appropriate choice, even though it is not in line with her original intentions.
