Seeing the crime scene flashbacks made me the darling of the police station.

Chapter 273 It's not that I don't want to tell you
Su Miaoyi returned to Weiyang Palace and listened to the sounds of moving upstairs. She then looked at the map of Jinghai.

They knew perfectly well that searching like this might be pointless, and that they were only looking in places where bodies could easily be buried or hidden, and that the body might even be in someone's house.

This makes the investigation even more difficult.

Even if we searched door-to-door, it would take a long time to find the southwest area of ​​Jinghai.

But she always felt uneasy if she didn't study it.

What if we find it?

I spent half a day studying the map.

As darkness fell, she stretched her back and poured herself a glass of water.

My phone rang; it was an unfamiliar number.

Now, whenever she sees an unfamiliar number, she assumes it's from the Ji family.

After answering the phone, the other party first identified themselves: "Are you Su Miaoyi? I'm Yan Zhiqing."

"Auntie, it's me." Su Miaoyi was a little surprised.

"Did I bother you?" Yan Zhiqing asked with a smile.

"No," Su Miaoyi said. "I was wondering why no one had contacted me."

Yan Zhiqing smiled and said, "Then I'm fine. Have you eaten yet?"

"Not yet," Su Miaoyi said. "Do you have time? Let me treat you to dinner."

“I’ll treat you,” Yan Zhiqing said. “Is it at Weiyang Palace? I’ll have someone pick you up at the restaurant in my house, the one you’ve been to before.”

“I can go by myself,” Su Miaoyi said.

"You wait at home, I've already sent someone to pick you up."

"it is good."

When Su Miaoyi arrived at the restaurant, Yan Zhiqing was waiting for her in the lobby.

She also brought a small gift for Yan Zhiqing.

The two went to the private room, and as soon as the door opened, Su Miaoyi saw Liu Liu first.

When Liu Liu saw her, it seemed to be stunned for a moment, then tilted its head, and then its tail started wagging.

It was crouching down, but it stood up and tried to run to her side.

However, the other end of the leash was tied to the chair, and as it ran forward, it pulled the chair forward a little as well.

It stopped, let out two howls, wagged its tail, looked at Su Miaoyi, and then tilted its head towards the chair twice.

Su Miaoyi felt she understood its meaning; it wanted her to untie the leash.

“I saw that it liked you a lot last time, so I brought it along,” Yan Zhiqing said. “Are you afraid of dogs? It doesn’t bite.”

"I'm not afraid," Su Miaoyi said.

Yan Zhiqing untied the leash.

Liu Liu immediately reached Su Miaoyi and placed its front paw on her clothes.

Su Miaoyi rubbed its face.

Liu Liu was so excited that she made a little noise.

"Please sit down," Yan Zhiqing said.

"it is good."

Su Miaoyi sat down, and Liu Liu squatted down next to her, her legs touching.

He would rub against her leg for a while, then rub against her leg again.

Su Miaoyi stroked its head.

Yan Zhiqing looked at Liu Liu and her being affectionate, and then at Su Miaoyi: "I didn't know what you liked to eat, so I just ordered some random things."

"I'm not picky about food."

Yan Zhiqing smiled gently and ordered the dishes to be served.

As a result, the person who claimed not to be a picky eater refused to eat tomatoes, celery, or eggplant.

Yan Zhiqing watched as she precisely avoided those dishes.

Then it fell for a small round pancake that looked like a pumpkin pancake but turned out to be a carrot pancake.

And the pumpkin pancakes look really delicious.

Su Miaoyi tried a piece.

When the flavor spread in her mouth, Su Miaoyi's eyes widened slightly.

There's a carrot spy in the pancake.

It's pumpkin pancakes, but it has carrots inside.

"What's wrong?" Yan Zhiqing asked.

Su Miaoyi didn't want to taste it anymore and swallowed it directly: "I thought it was just a simple pumpkin pancake."

“It’s pumpkin pancakes.” Yan Zhiqing said very seriously, and even picked up a piece to taste. “It’s pumpkin pancakes, you can try some more.”

Su Miaoyi looked at the cakes on her plate.

“It really is pumpkin pancake, have a taste,” Yan Zhiqing said.

Su Miaoyi began to believe what she said, so she took another bite.

She closed her eyes again, feeling a carrot bite her lip. Yan Zhiqing handed her two pieces of paper.

When Qin Leyan was a picky eater, this is how she and Shen Shilan tricked her into eating.

But you can't fool them.

She didn't dislike the appearance of those things; it wasn't a visual dislike. She genuinely disliked the taste.

Moreover, even if it's juiced and mixed with other things, she can still taste the subtle flavor.

And they strongly resisted it.

I was young then, but my expressions and reactions are exactly the same as they are now.

Su Miaoyi quickly vomited.

Just then, the waiter brought over some juice.

"Have some to cover the taste in your mouth," Yan Zhiqing said.

Su Miaoyi took a sip, her eyes lit up, and she drank a few more sips: "This is the first time I've ever tasted such delicious grape juice."

After she finished speaking, she muttered something to herself.

It doesn't seem like it's the first time; I suddenly felt a sense of familiarity when I drank it.

"If it's delicious, I'll come back often," Yan Zhiqing said.

"it is good."

Yan Zhiqing had all the food she didn't like removed, leaving only the food that Su Miaoyi loved.

After finishing the meal, Su Miaoyi was so full that she didn't want to move.

She knew this restaurant was good, but none of the food there was as good as today's.

The usual ones are nowhere near the level of tonight's.

She sat in the chair and rubbed Liu Liu's face.

Suddenly, I experienced a ringing in my ears.

"Help me, help me, help me!"

Su Miaoyi tilted her head and closed her eyes.

Liu Liu suddenly called out softly.

"What's wrong?" Yan Zhiqing asked.

"It's nothing." Su Miaoyi pressed her ear and turned to look out the window.

The sound seemed to be coming from the southwest.

But in just a moment, she could hear nothing anymore.

After dinner, Yan Zhiqing and Su Miaoyi took Liu Liu for a stroll in the backyard of the restaurant for a while.

Yan Zhiqing didn't ask her anything about Qin Leyan; she just chatted with her casually.

After chatting for more than an hour, Yan Zhiqing had someone send Su Miaoyi back.

Liu Liu insisted on going along too.

Finally, Yan Zhiqing grabbed it by the back of its neck and forcefully pulled it away from the car.

After watching her leave, Yan Zhiqing also asked the driver to take her home.

She sat in the car, watching the night view recede outside the window, thinking about Su Miaoyi tonight.

Gradually, he began to resemble Qin Leyan from his childhood.

She often cooked back then.

Xiao Leyan likes her cooking, so he often brings his own lunchbox to her house for meals.

She will always remember that tiny little person standing outside the door, unable to reach the doorbell, so he could only knock on the door, saying as he knocked, "Aunt Yan, I've come to eat delicious food again."

Thinking this, Yan Zhiqing smiled and then wiped away the tears that fell from her eyes.

When I got home and entered the house, I saw Zhuang Yanzheng.

"Mom, you're back?" Zhuang Yanzheng was waiting for her in the living room, knowing that she had gone to see Su Miaoyi.

Yan Zhiqing looked at him and walked up to him.

Zhuang Yanzheng sensed something was wrong and immediately got up from the sofa and stood to the side: "Mom, please listen to me first. It's not that I didn't want to tell you, it's just that this matter is a bit difficult to talk about, so we made an agreement that if we don't find out anything, we won't bring it up."

“I am your mother!” Yan Zhiqing said.

“Mom, we’re genuinely worried about any negative impact this might have on Su Miaoyi. So, we don’t plan to bring up anything we haven’t discovered,” Zhuang Yanzheng said.

Yan Zhiqing was no longer listening to anything anyone said.

She picked up a cushion and threw it at Zhuang Yanzheng.

Zhuang Yanzheng turned and ran.

Yan Zhiqing chased after him, from the living room to the yard.

Liu Liu didn't know what was happening, but when it saw them running, it chased after them.

Zhuang Yihao happened to be returning and, not knowing what had happened, caught up with them, calling out from behind, "What's wrong? What's wrong?"

No one responded to him.

This exercise involving three people and a dog ended with Zhuang Yanzheng getting hit by two pillows.
