Suddenly a female voice came from behind: "Gao Caiqin, when is your English homework due?" A girl also wearing a school uniform, with an oval face and almond-shaped eyes, looked like the innocent school beauty that attracts attention at a glance. She walked up to the three of them with her head held high, completely ignoring that there were others around Gao Caiqin, deliberately looking directly at Gao Caiqin, and said loudly to her: "If you don't have time to write, just borrow a copy and copy it before handing it over."
When Gao Caiqin saw this, he frowned: "Shouldn't it be due before class in the afternoon? Why are you in a hurry?"
The girl was reluctant, as if she had something to do with her: "Don't I need time to collect my homework? There is no time until class!"
"I'm sick! Are you deliberately looking for trouble?" After that, Gao Caiqin was no longer willing to talk to her, deliberately bumped her shoulder away and returned to the classroom.
Liu Mengwei watched the two bickering with interest and commented in a low voice: "A proud and beautiful little girl, her little desire to attract attention is so cute!"
It's so cute, it's almost annoying. Wen Qiao thought impatiently.
Furry little heads appeared next to the glass window of the classroom, and they kept looking here. As long as any unseen people, things, or objects appear in the school, they will be "scrutinized" by this group of people with the strongest curiosity. And the beautiful little girl in front of them was originally standing under the spotlight. She just saw it With a brighter light, he stepped forward involuntarily and drove away the ordinary girl who was standing there.
"You are so beautiful." Liu Mengwei said suddenly, looking at her sincerely.
Facing such a straightforward compliment from a stranger, and a woman who was so beautiful that she was a little bit dazzling, the girl was a little surprised, but she felt more benefited and happy in her heart. Her cheeks immediately turned red, and she whispered "Thank you" in a low voice.
"Little beauty, I want to ask you something. I wonder if you are willing to help?" After laying the groundwork, Liu Mengwei went straight to the topic.
"What's the matter?" The girl was indeed unprepared.
"Something happened at Gao Caiqin's family. Although the teachers have kept it a secret from you, I believe you still heard some rumors."
The girl couldn't comment, and seemed to acquiesce to her guess.
"Actually, this is a senior psychological research expert invited by Gao MaMa." Liu Mengwei ignored Wen Qiao's displeasure and insisted on pointing at him and said: "We are worried that these things may have an impact on her psychology, so we came to the school Let’s take a look. I would like to ask all of you teachers and classmates who have the most contact with her on weekdays, has there been any special changes in her recently?”
The girl once again looked at Wen Qiao, who was standing silently next to her, and an invisible sense of oppression invaded her. "I...I didn't pay much attention."
Wen Qiao suddenly saw Liu Mengwei winking at him. He understood that this place required him to act blackface, so he asked angrily: "Really?"
This cold question made the girl tremble in fright. Liu Mengwei hurriedly said to comfort: "It can be any small thing, please think about it carefully."
As expected, she fell into thinking again, and finally said after a long time: "Actually, we are not very familiar with each other. So I can't say that I know her well. During the first placement test in the first grade of junior high school, her scores were the highest in the whole grade. She was ranked high, but in the mid-term exam and a series of subsequent tests, her grades fell again and again. Now, she can only be ranked in the twenties in our class. So, just Some people suspect that her first few exams may..."
She didn't say the word, but everyone understood what she meant.
"The midterm exam in the first semester of junior high school? In other words, almost exactly a year ago at this time, Gao Caiqin's grades suddenly declined." Liu Mengwei refined the key words in her words.
"Yes." The girl nodded. "If you ask me what is the biggest change in her, then I can only think of this. When her grades were good, she looked aloof. When her grades got worse, her personality became weirder and more withdrawn."
"So that's it." Liu Mengwei murmured to himself. "May I know your name?"
"My name is Lin Xuerou."
"What a gentle and good name... Well, you smell so good." Liu Mengwei suddenly approached the girl and sniffed gently. "You smell like strawberries."
The girl felt like a flower bloomed in her heart after being praised by her. She smiled sweetly and said, "Your nose is so good. Strawberries are on the market recently. I eat them almost every day. I feel like I am being pickled by the strawberries."
"Is it because others know you like strawberries, so they give them to you every day?"
The girl was stunned for a moment and said a little embarrassedly: "How...how do you know?"
"Because... a beautiful and cute little girl like you is very suitable for this kind of fruit. It is fresh, sweet and pleasant." Liu Mengwei said, but it was also fragile and fragile.
…
To Wen and Liu's surprise, Gao Caiqin was accompanied by a little boy.
"Is this your brother?"
"right."
"How come your brother is with you?" Liu Mengwei asked doubtfully.
"He has been with me all the time. I was in the second grade of junior high school and he was in the first grade of junior high school."
"Isn't he only 11 years old this year?"
Gao Caiqin was a little disdainful of her fuss: "Can't you go to junior high school at the age of 11? There are many who go to college at the age of 11."
Liu Mengwei felt relieved.
"It's quite strange to say that this kid didn't like to study at all before. He was only somewhat interested in music and could play the piano well. But suddenly one day it was like he had an enlightenment. The things taught in school were not good at all. He knew that elementary school knowledge could no longer satisfy him, so his father asked him to skip a grade." Gao Caiqin said.
Liu Mengwei leaned over and looked at Gao Mu. His big black eyes under thick black eyelashes looked smart and well-behaved. "Where do you want to go?"
"Blue Moon Bay." Gao Caiqin said.
The southeast of Yunhe City is close to the sea. The winding coastline and blue water are reminiscent of the mysterious and distant bright moon, so this sea area is called Blue Moon Bay. The car drove on the road for more than an hour, gradually entering a deep and quiet place in the forest. We could only occasionally see a few old buildings and lonely B&Bs on the roadside, which looked lifeless. At this time, the weather is getting colder, and the wind and waves are even higher at the beach. Few people will choose to go to the beach at this time.
But when the boundless sea appeared in front of everyone's eyes, Gao Caiqin's calm face was as bright and bright as a blooming flower. She screamed and rushed to the sea and ran wildly along the coastline. On the contrary, her brother, who was three years younger than her, watched. He stood up calmly like an adult, just standing in the distance and quietly watching the waves crashing on the beach.
The peaceful scene in front of her made Liu Mengwei a little lost. She closed her eyes and enjoyed the sea breeze. The waves coming and going were messengers in the world. They would encapsulate human troubles and send them to the deep and unfathomable world. Measured sea.
But Wen Qiao still brought her back to reality: "You can talk now."
"Speaking of it, Mr. Forensic Doctor, you are really not an ordinary person. You have been able to endure it until now before asking me. It shows that you have extraordinary patience."
"Not to mention that you have amazing powers of observation and memory. I'm curious as to how you discovered the commonality between Gao Liqun and Zhao Xiaoqing. No one has ever thought of comparing the brain shapes of two deceased people during an autopsy. On the one hand, it’s unexpected, and on the other hand, after seeing one of them, when you look at the other one, you may have forgotten the appearance of the previous one.”
"This means that either you know this possibility exists, or you have a photographic memory. So, forensic doctor, you are really a difficult guy." Liu Mengwei took off his sunglasses, but his eyes were full of exhaustion.
Wen Qiao didn't speak to urge her. He was indeed a very patient person.
Liu Mengwei looked at the two children playing in a daze, and then said for a long time: "Actually, you should have noticed something with your observation skills. The younger brother who was not good at studying suddenly became a prodigy, and the top sister suddenly disappeared from everyone. The younger brother took away this gift from his older sister.”
"Geniuses want to do a lot, but what attracts them most are often things that break boundaries. Legal norms, ethics and morals are tight hoops that are placed on everyone's heads. Even geniuses are members of human society and have to carry They walked with these 'shackles'. Their bodies were bound, but their hearts were always ready to move. So they found the only people in the world who would not be truly bound by these shackles - themselves and their families."
"After breaking through this layer of restraint, the genius finally turned into a madman." Liu Mengwei said.
