"You can only eat one, not too many."
She looked malnourished, and she was often hungry. If she suddenly overeated, it would be bad for her health.
When Xiaoya heard this, she nodded, and then Xiao Jihe said, "Then you go."
At this time, Xiaoya was like a butterfly being let fly. She couldn't wait to pick up the dinner plate and ran to the place where the rice was served.
She stood on tiptoes and pointed at the fried chicken drumstick with her little finger, signaling that she wanted this.
When the uncle chef saw that she was so small that she couldn't even reach the window, he couldn't help but smile.
"Want to eat fried chicken legs?"
Xiaoya nodded, and he immediately put one on her plate and said with a smile: "Children need to eat more to grow taller."
Xiaoya looked at it reluctantly for several more times, thinking that she had promised her eldest brother to only eat one, and she could only lower her eyelids if she was reluctant to part with it.
Xiao Jihe appeared next to her at this time and reminded: "You need to mix meat and vegetables, and you can't be picky about your food."
So, in the end, there was a plate full of different dishes, both meat and vegetables.
Xiaoya hasn't had such a sumptuous meal for a long time, and even the little black rabbit that never left her hand was willing to give it to Xiao Jihe.
Xiao Jihe placed her rabbit on the table and smiled slightly when he saw her clenching her little hands.
"Eat."
Following his instructions, Xiaoya picked up the chopsticks and lowered her head to eat the rice carefully.
The too-long bangs completely covered her eyes.
When Sui Qian came over, Xiaoya hadn't finished eating yet.
Just when she was hesitating whether to step forward, Xiao Jihe smelled the sweet aroma that belonged to her, turned his head and looked at her, and saw her standing there helplessly holding the small book he gave her. , the corners of his mouth couldn't help but curve.
"How about I sit down for you?"
There was a smile in his eyes, and he deliberately joked.
That familiar feeling is back.
The girl faced the surging heat on her face and waved her hands slightly, her voice as thin as a mosquito: "No, no need."
She just wanted to come over and ask the little girl if she saw anything last night.
Even though she knew the odds were low.
Relying on not being recognized, Xiao Ji lowered his voice mysteriously: "Sui Qian, I have a new clue. Do you want to hear it?"
"New clue?"
When Sui Qian heard this, she immediately became interested, her green eyes sparkling, "Is it about the murderer?"
"Uh-huh, yes."
The girl took another step forward and looked at the man expectantly.
Xiao Jihe frowned in distress at this time, "I'm wondering whether I should tell you or not. After all, if I don't tell you, then I will be the only one who knows who will die later. If I rely on this clue to go How much do you think I can earn in exchange for money?”
When Sui Qian heard this, she became anxious and said, "I can also give you money!"
Isn't her identity in this copy a rich lady? You shouldn't be short of money, right?
System: [There is no shortage, but the problem is that the original owner spends money lavishly and does not have much available funds. 】
【……】
The girl was desperate.
But she couldn't show it, so she could only tremble her eyelashes and discuss weakly: "Mr. Detective, didn't you tell me before that if there is anything I want to know, I can just ask you directly. I want to know... …”
"Does this still count?"
Her tone was cautious and a bit expectant, like a kitten, gently blinking her sweet and clear almond-shaped eyes, unconsciously showing a coquettish attitude.
The girl's voice is thin and soft, and the soft tail tone has a hint of temptation that can make one's body tremble.
Xiao Jihe's heart felt as if a feather had touched it, and his throat became dry. He calmly picked up the water glass on the table and took a sip of water.
My throat felt much better after being moistened with water.
"If you ask me, it's not impossible."
His voice became seductively deep, "Did you notice the numbers at the crime scene?"
"number?"
Sui Qian blinked in confusion, and then remembered where the system reminded her to look, "I think I've seen it before..."
"That's fine."
"I can tell you this, a set of numbers represents a deceased person, and the numbers left in the two rooms of the deceased last night are most likely the people who will die tonight."
Every word in Xiao Jihe's voice was like a heavy hammer hitting the girl's heart.
She couldn't help but tremble at the top of her heart.
"Where did you draw this conclusion?" she asked softly.
Xiao Jihe poured some water out of the cup, put some on his fingertips, and then wrote the numbers he saw in Han Yu's room on the table.
"This is the number left in Han Yu's room."
Immediately afterwards, he wrote the names of the two deceased persons 209 and 206.
After that, he tapped the desktop and said, "These numbers are actually the strokes of the name. For example, the first 6 and 7 correspond exactly to Xu Hua, the name of the old lady in 206."
"And 7,10,16 are the strokes of the pregnant woman's name in 209."
Seeing that Sui Qian's eyes were still confused, Xiao Jihe raised his eyebrows and said, "You can try to write down their names and you will know whether what I said is true."
The girl then followed his instructions and slowly wrote the names of the two deceased people on her white palms.
As soon as she finished writing, she understood. Her clear green eyes shone with joy, and pear dimples appeared on both sides of her cheeks.
"Mr. Detective, I understand what you are talking about!"
The strange numbers that appeared in the deceased's room just matched the strokes of the next deceased's name. In this case...
In other words, the numbers left in rooms 209 and 206 are the strokes of the names of the people who died tonight?
After realizing this, Sui Qian's pupils tightened nervously, and he unconsciously relied on Xiao Jihe.
"Now, can we find out who will die tonight?"
Xiao Jihe glanced at her appreciatively, "It stands to reason that this is correct."
"Miss Sui is very smart, she can understand everything at once."
The man curled his thin lips and looked steadily at the girl's fair face with his condensed ice-blue eyes. There was a hint of indescribable endearment in his voice.
Being praised like this, the girl's heart skipped a few beats.
The sense of shame climbed onto her snow-white face again, and her voice squeezed out nervously from the gap between her lips.
"W-where is there..."
She wasn't smart at all, and if he hadn't spoken so clearly, she might not have been able to figure out what was going on.
Sui Qian was more grateful to Xiao Jihe, "I still have to thank you, Mr. Detective. You are not only smart, but you also share what you know. You are a very kind-hearted person."
The more she said it, the more official it became, and it sounded like she was giving him a good guy card.
Xiao Jihe didn't like it, so he interrupted her.
"I didn't tell everyone. If someone else asked me, it wouldn't necessarily be true."
