"My grandpa has a gold case men's pocket watch. When I was a child, I liked this watch very much, so I always begged my grandpa to take out the watch and let me have a look. Until one day my grandpa smiled and said: 'If you like this pocket watch , grandpa will give it to you. But this is a men's watch, and you won't be able to use it when you grow up. By the way! You can give this pocket watch to your husband when the time comes.'
of course! It was just a joke, but after my grandfather said this, he gave me the watch. "
When Tian Chunda and Director Yang heard this, they couldn't help but stare at Zhu Shi's profile with confusion.
What is the relationship between her visit to Zhu Wenwu and this pocket watch last night?
However, in order to avoid interrupting Zhu Shi's mood, the two of them did not express any opinions. They just listened patiently and listened attentively.
But Zhu Shi still looked into the distance and continued: "After I got this pocket watch, I was really overjoyed. From then on, I kept it by my side. Even when I slept, I didn't forget to put it beside my pillow and listen to its ticking. Sound. However, I was still a child at the time. Although that pocket watch meant a lot to me, there were still times when I would break it. Sometimes the spring would turn around, or it would hit water... At this time, the left Ching would always fix it for me.”
Upon hearing Zuo Qing's name, Tian Chunda and Director Yang couldn't help showing nervous expressions on their faces.
"Zuo Qing is three years older than me. He has been very interested in mechanics since he was a child. He is very good at assembling radios, toy trams, etc., so repairing my pocket watch is just a trivial matter for him.
Although he would always scold me with a straight face every time he saw me breaking my watch, but when he saw my sad look, he would immediately change his tune and say, 'Alas! Do not worry! I'll fix it for you. I'll start repairing it tonight and leave it to you tomorrow. 'The next day, when he handed the repaired pocket watch to me, he never forgot to say to me in a mocking tone: 'You have to cherish this pocket watch even more! Because when you grow up and become a bride, won’t you want to give this watch to the groom? 'After saying that, he would poke my cheek with his finger..."
When Zhu Shi said this, a blush suddenly appeared on his head, and his beautiful watery eyes were full of energy.
Tian Chunda was trying to picture Zuo Qing's image in his mind.
Although Zuo Qing is now unrecognizable and wears a mask all day long, judging from the photos attached to "The Biography of Hong Li", the former Zuo Qing can indeed be called a handsome man.
The episode Zhu Shi mentioned now should have happened when she was a child. But, what kind of emotions existed between the two childhood sweethearts at that time?
And what would Mr. Hong Li think when he saw this?
At this time, Tian Chunda suddenly thought that Hong Li seemed to have planned to marry Zuo Qing and Zhu Shi.
However, this Zuo Qing is no longer the Zuo Qing of the past. His originally outstanding beauty has now been damaged...
Tian Chunda remembered the mutilated and disgusting piece of flesh he had seen before. In addition to being frightened, he also sympathized with his plight.
Zhu Shize began to narrate her story again: "The watch later broke down, but Zuo Qing, who could repair it for me, had already studied abroad in the United States, and I didn't want to send the watch to a watch shop for repair. One is that I often hear that some people give their watches to watch shops for repair, but the parts in the watch are swapped, so... and the other reason is that I always feel that no one can repair it except Zuo Qing. This watch, so I didn’t want to give the watch to anyone other than Zuo Qing for repair. So this watch has been broken until now, until Zuo Qing returned home for a reunion recently..."
Zhu Shi suddenly stopped here, but then she picked up her energy and continued: "Four or five days ago, when I was chatting with him, I gave him my watch and asked him to repair it for me..."
As soon as Tian Cunda heard this sentence, he immediately became energetic.
"Has Zuo Qing repaired that pocket watch for you?" Tian Chunda asked.
Zhu Shi shook his head slowly.
"No, Zuo Qing took the watch and looked at it for a while. He just said that he was not in the mood to repair it now and would talk about it later, and then returned the watch to me."
When Zhu Shi said this, he stopped talking again.
Tian Chunda and Director Yang both held their breath and looked at Zhu Shi, but Zhu Shi kept facing the lake and did not speak for a long time.
Captain Tian scratched his hair with his little finger in confusion.
"Excuse me...what does what you are saying now have to do with the conversation last night?"
Zhu Shi did not answer Tian Chunda's question, but said solemnly: "Last night, Zhu Wenwu and Xin Youzhi took out Zuo Qing's fingerprints that had been stored in Miyun Temple to prove Zuo Qing's... Zuo Qing's true identity..."
When Zhu Shi said this, his shoulders trembled slightly involuntarily.
"They hoped to verify their identity, but unexpectedly it caused a commotion. Aunt Hong Xiangsong refused to let Zuo Qing take his fingerprints, which made everyone very disappointed. At this time, I suddenly thought, didn't I just say that? A few days ago, I I just asked Zuo Qing to repair my watch, so I went back to my room, opened the watch cover, and found a fingerprint of Zuo Qing’s right thumb on the back.”
When Tian Cunda heard this, his spirits were lifted.
Director Yang was stunned. After a while, he faced Zhu Shi again.
"But how can you be sure that this is Zuo Qing's fingerprint?" Director Yang asked.
Tian Chunda thought that Zhu Shi must have deliberately designed Zuo Qing to leave his fingerprints somewhere on the pocket watch from the beginning.
Zhu Shi is such a smart girl!
"I think it's not wrong. Because before I gave the pocket watch to Zuo Qing, I had wiped the surface clean in advance. What's more, no one except me and Zuo Qing had touched the pocket watch, and the fingerprint on the watch was not mine."
As expected, Zhu Shi had this intention from the beginning, so he wiped the watch clean in advance and asked the other party to leave fingerprints on the back of the watch. This move is really brilliant! Tian Chunda nodded approvingly.
"In the fierce atmosphere last night, it was impossible to collect Zuo Qing's fingerprints, but if we just ignore it, it will only deepen the suspicion in the hearts of Zhu Wenwu, Xin Youzhi, and their parents. Therefore, I I would like to ask Zhu Wenwu to compare the fingerprints on the watch with the fingerprints on the scroll." Zhu Shi added.
"I see, you asked Zhu Wenwu to meet here just to talk about this matter?" Tian Chunda asked.
"Yes."
"What time was it at eleven o'clock?"
"It was exactly eleven o'clock when I left the room. Because if Yuan Zhuang knew about this, he would definitely follow, which would be inconvenient. So as soon as I returned to the room, I stayed in the room until eleven o'clock. Then he quietly left the room."
