Captain Lu was aloof again today.

Chapter 52 Nostalgia
The apartment was lit with warm yellow lights, and the furnishings were cozy and elegant. Gardenia-scented diffusers sat on the table, their fragrance gently permeating every corner.

In the bathroom, the sound of rushing water filled the air, accompanied by an off-key tune.

After an unknown amount of time, the water stopped flowing, and the bathroom door opened with a click.

Steaming hot air rose from the bathroom, and a delicate hand emerged, a white towel wrapped around her graceful body.

Her wet, chestnut-brown curly hair was casually draped over her shoulders, making her exposed skin appear even whiter.

Wei Qingsong walked to the window and pulled back the heavy curtains.

As night falls outside the window, the stars twinkle, and Tangzhou is a beautiful sight at night, with neon lights shimmering.

She took a bottle of red wine from the wine cabinet, opened the cap, poured it into a stemmed glass, elegantly swirled the wine in the glass, and gently inhaled its fragrant aroma.

After gazing quietly at the night sky for a while, she slowly brought the wine to her lips, enjoying this rare moment of tranquility.

Suddenly, she remembered something, turned around and walked to the bedside, opened the drawer, and took out a black cell phone.

He turned on the computer, entered a long password, and completed the task in one smooth motion.

A text message popped up.

From: Alice
The email was sent at 9 PM last night.

"The snake has emerged from its hole; the investigation is underway."

Looking at the night view outside the window, Wei Qingsong's eyes flashed with a complex expression.

It must be said that they acted very quickly.

Or perhaps it was her provocation of Yan Zhi that day that worked, causing Yan Zhi to lose his composure and reveal his weakness.

She downed the drink in one gulp, her brown eyes slightly narrowed, which, perhaps due to the hazy night, revealed a hint of danger.

Buddha didn't leave her with the KPI of saving all sentient beings, and she didn't intend to let Yan Zhi and Bai Liwan get away with it.

However, in the face of power, her strength is weak.

Bai Liwan's power made her realize that there are always people more powerful than you, and that there is always something beyond your understanding.

She didn't mind letting Bai Liwan learn this lesson.

She was just an ordinary person, unable to stand against overwhelming power.

But just because she can't do it doesn't mean others can't.

Perhaps Yan Zhi is right; rebellious and sinful blood flows in her veins.

Otherwise, she wouldn't have been so adept and at ease after encountering criminal psychology.

But she and Bai Liwan are always different.

Bai Liwan's knife is aimed at poverty and weakness, but her knife is only aimed at evil.

Moreover, she was smarter than Yan Zhi, who was crazy and daring, leaving behind many indelible pieces of evidence.

She wants to drag the Yan family down with her, but she will never do it herself.

She was just an ordinary criminal psychologist, unable to resist the powerful, afraid of losing what she had, and unable to eradicate the fear in her heart.

Let Interpol handle the task of combating crime.

In any case, Interpol was eager to use her to gain merit.

The night breeze blew in through the cracks in the window, ruffling the stray hairs on her forehead. She reached out and casually smoothed them down, her eyes fixed on the screen as she slowly typed out a line of text.

“Alice, there’s another person I’d like you to investigate. I suspect he’s also connected to ‘Evil Fruit.’ His name is Ye Chen, and he’s a surgeon.”

Whether intentionally or unintentionally, Ye Chen appeared in front of her far too often, and too deliberately.

Wei Qingsong had to be on guard.

If he is indeed a fugitive with "bad consequences," she can use the ICPO to deal with him as well.

Shortly after, the phone beeped.

"OK, sweet dreams, S."

Wei Qingsong didn't reply. She expertly turned off her black phone, a faint smile playing on her lips. Her brown eyes seemed veiled, hazy and dreamlike.

While Interpol was investigating the Yan family and Bai Liwan, the Tangzhou Municipal Public Security Bureau's ordinary criminal police were also conducting a covert investigation into Wen Cheng.

Wei Qingsong executed a beautiful and skillful drift, bringing the black sports car to a steady stop in the parking space.

She got off the car feeling refreshed, a fried dough stick dangling from her mouth. As soon as she looked up, she saw Lu Jingming standing a few steps away with his arms crossed, looking at her indifferently.

"Your driving skills are good," he commented briefly.

Wei Qingsong raised an eyebrow, his expression serious, but what he said had a slightly inappropriate tone.

"If you have the chance, let's go for a ride together, and I'll let you experience what it's like to ride a rocket."

I don’t know when it started, but she has been gradually becoming more and more unrestrained in her self-expression.

Lu Jingming remained silent for a moment, his face expressionless: "No need, I have no intention of speeding and courting death for the time being."

Wei Qingsong shrugged noncommittally, glanced around, and asked, "Are you waiting for me here?"

Lu Jingming weighed the car keys in his hand and pointed to the inconspicuous car behind him: "No, we just happened to run into it."

"Oh." Wei Qingsong didn't press further and generously handed over the breakfast in her hand. "Shall I share half with you?"

Lu Jingming's gaze fell on the kraft paper bag, and he asked casually, "Tangjing Baodian has opened a branch near Sunshine Garden?"

Otherwise, she would have to get up early to go to the old store more than ten kilometers away and queue up with a group of immature high school students.

"No," Wei Qingsong said casually, stuffing the paper bag into his hand. "I'll drive there, it'll be quick. I'm just a sentimental person, I can't stand the breakfasts from other places."

These words were clearly pointed.

Lu Jingming glanced down and, unsurprisingly, it was a pickled cabbage and vermicelli bun.

His throat bobbed slightly, and his eyes were deep.

The garage elevator was not far away. With a fried dough stick in her mouth, Wei Qingsong mumbled, "Lu Jingming, do you know what phenylethylamine is?"

Lu Jingming reached out and pressed the elevator button, saying casually, "I just happened to see it in a magazine."

When a person's brain produces enough phenylethylamine, they will fall in love with someone.

Besides phenylethylamine, dopamine and norepinephrine can also give people a feeling of "infatuation".

The elevator doors opened, and Wei Qingsong and Lu Jingming entered one after the other. She swallowed the fried dough stick in her mouth and said softly, "Do you know that the peak concentration of phenylethylamine only lasts for 6 months to 4 years?"

"Ok?"

As the elevator slowly ascended, Lu Jingming was somewhat puzzled.

Wei Qingsong suddenly looked at him and smiled brightly: "That means that people are not creatures of lasting affection. It doesn't even take six years. In just four years, the hormones in the human body will make a person forget his lover."

Lu Jingming paused slightly, then asked in a deep voice, "So?"

Wei Qingsong took a deep breath and looked intently into his unfathomable eyes: "But what I want to say is that no matter how many six years pass, my subconscious will make me extend this cycle indefinitely."

She paused, then repeated with a smile, "That's what happens when you're a sentimental person."

Her feelings for him had long transcended her conscious mind and were deeply rooted in her subconscious.

"Did you know that the power of the subconscious mind is more than 30,000 times that of the conscious mind?" she said casually.

Therefore, she could never forget Lu Jingming, no matter what.

Just like Wencheng, many years later, an unexpected reunion will awaken his subconscious memories and make him make a subconscious choice.

I don't know if it was because of the elevator arrival, or because of phenylethylamine, or perhaps it was my subconscious.

At that moment, Lu Jingming couldn't help but feel a little dizzy.

Thank you to Mo Jinchen from Aichen's family for the reward. Thank you to Li Tao for the monthly ticket.

Mwah!

"Humans are not creatures of lasting affection. Unwavering love until death goes against nature. So I want to say that I will go against my instincts and defy my nature to love you forever. Even if that's not the case, I will fall in love with you many times to prolong this cycle."
