Lin Yue crossed his fingers, put them in front of him, looked at Ruan Wen and said, "I suspect that the 'painter' is not dead yet, he may come to you."

"The 'painter' is not dead?" Ruan Wen said, "Didn't you say that the 'painter' died with that Wu Xiuqing last time? Why are you saying that he is still alive now?"

"Before I came to Qindao for the first time, I entrusted Inspector He to go to Thailand to collect the details of Li Wen before and after his imprisonment. I learned that he had sent a letter to a resort hotel in Chiang Rai Province. Inspector He With the assistance of the local police, we found the resort hotel, and after on-site investigation, we found that a man had entered the courtyard after Li Wen died, but judging from the traces at the scene, it doesn’t look like a thief.”

"Then what happened to the DNA comparison result?"

Lin Yue said: "The results of the DNA comparison confirm that Li Wen is dead, but Li Wen is not necessarily a 'painter'."

"If he wasn't a 'painter'? Who would be a 'painter'?"

"Until Li Wen was arrested, there was no information about the 'painter' in the whole world. He is very clean, and he will kill people if he has a little doubt. If my assumption is correct, Li Wen is just a scapegoat. With the last member of the group Death, the 'painter' is still a 'painter', and the so-called information held by the police is meaningless."

Ruan Wen was puzzled: "Why do you think he will come to me?"

Lin Yue said: "Although I can't confirm whether Li Wen is the 'painter', but from the fact that Wu Xiuqing copied your face and they have a lot of information about you, even if the 'painter' has no thoughts about you, he must be by your side Appeared before. Now he spends a lot of time playing the trick of "Golden Cicada Escape Shell" and kills everyone in the group, so the only person who can reveal his identity information is only one-you!"

Ruan Wen frowned and thought for a long time, as if he was recalling the suspicious people he had seen before.

After a long time, I shook my head and changed the question: "If he wants to kill me, why hasn't he done it in the past few months?"

"Because the HK police announced the arrest of the 'painter' two months ago, but the Canadian side didn't buy it, and now I'm here to investigate. If I find new evidence, it may overturn the conclusion of the HK police. Then the 'painter' incident There will be waves again. Judging from the cruel way the 'painter' treated Wu Xin's family of five, your situation is not optimistic."

"So you're back again? To protect me?"

Lin Yue nodded: "Yes, to protect you, and to get closer to the truth."

call……

Ruan Wen let out a long breath.

"I really don't know whether to thank you or blame you."

Lin Yue glanced outside, the rain had stopped and the sky was still cloudy.

"Well, I'll ask the front desk to open a room next to yours, and if something happens, I'll come and protect you as soon as possible."

Ruan Wen said, "Can I refuse?"

Lin Yue said, "No."

"Then why do you still ask me?"

"This..." Lin Yue smiled awkwardly: "I'll go to the hotel where I stayed to pick up my luggage, see you in the evening."

"Who said I want to have dinner with you."

Lin Yue scratched his scalp with his hands, looking troubled.

"6:25, I won't wait for you even a minute later."

"OK!"

Lin Yue smiled and opened the door of the suite.

The farther he walked, the brighter the smile on his mouth became.

He told a white lie.

In fact, Officer Lin has been staying at Qindao for the past few days, but he did not come into her sight.

He is well aware of the relationship between men and women, thousands of chases are not as good as a momentary heartbeat, and days of dormancy are just looking back on a rainy day, or an encounter in the warm wind under the falling leaves.

Fortunately, today's weather is beautiful, not only giving her warmth and touch, but also the surprise of "Shaoguan Spring". In this way, she should no longer exclude herself from approaching her, not to mention that there is an obligation to protect witnesses as a cover.

The so-called closeness to the water is the first thing to do, as long as she can intervene in her work and life, the next thing will be easy to handle.

After going to the first floor via the elevator, the smile on Lin Yue's face quickly faded.

A man in a gray windbreaker greeted him in the hall. He took out a strand of hair wrapped in toilet paper from his coat pocket and handed it over.

The man took it in his hand, nodded slightly, turned and left.

At this time, Lin Yue went to the front desk and told the waiter to open a guest room next to Ruan Wen's room, and then drove to the place where he lived before to pick up his luggage.

There was one thing he didn't tell Nguyen Van.

After the cruise ship exploded, two bodies were recovered. The HK police collected the biological samples of the male corpses. Compared with the blood samples collected from Li Wen before the interrogation, it was found to be one person, which showed that Li Wen was indeed dead.

The biological samples collected from the female body matched the hair samples collected from the hotel rooms where Li Wen and Wu Xiuqing lived that night, but were not related to the hair samples collected by the Thai police at the resort hotel in Chiang Rai.

What does this mean?

It shows that Li Wen's female companion at the resort hotel is someone else.

Things suddenly became complicated. He Weilan was going to report to the chief of police and restart the investigation of the "Painter" group, but in the end he chose to stand still under Lin Yue's persuasion.

If the case is as he imagined, and the "painter" is still at large, and Li Wen and Wu Xiuqing are just scapegoats and smoke screens, then this "painter" is really terrible.

Wu Xin, Hua Nu, Si Zai, Bo Zai, Li Wen, Wu Xiuqing, all those who can get information about the painter positively are all dead, just like the outside world describes the "painter", he is very clean, and will kill if he has any doubts .

It has only been more than a month since the HK police announced the closure of the case. It is believed that the "painter" has not let down his vigilance and is probably hiding in secret to monitor the police's movements.

So the best countermeasure is to loosen the outside and tighten the inside, and pretend that everything is as usual. As long as the HK police treat him perfunctorily, the "painter" will not be too nervous.

Chief Superintendent Lei Bin gave him the task of finding out the details of the "Painter" case, and the main task given by the system was also to find out the details of the "Painter" case.

At first he thought it was a thing, but now he doesn't think so.

Chief Superintendent Lei Bin wanted details that could be handed over, but what the system wanted was the truth.

An hour later, Lin Yue returned to the hotel where Ruan Wen was renting with his suitcase. After tidying up for a while, he left the room on time at 6:25 and knocked on the door of Room 3302.

She changed into high heels and an apricot windbreaker, with a pair of white under her ears.

"What's wrong?"

"No, nothing."

Lin Yue laughed, pretending to hide his surprise.

The two left the floor where the guest room was located and came to the Chinese restaurant below. He called the waiter to order four local dishes and a bowl of soup.

The two chatted and talked about food.

Ruan Wen was dumbfounded when he heard it, because the Royal Mounted Police who was born and raised in Canada and served in Canada knew more about Chinese food than she did.

The dinner went on for more than an hour, when Ms. Ruan came to her senses, she found that she had also entrusted tomorrow's dinner, and made an appointment to go to Sifang Road to eat hot pot together.

the next day.

He accompanied Ruan Wen to Ningwuguan Road, the crabapple flowers were not in bloom yet, but because of the night rain, the greenery was moistened with crystal drops, and the rouge was moistened.

It took the two of them around for more than half an hour to find a suitable location for shooting, but she didn't start painting all day, because she couldn't find the atmosphere in the rain yesterday.

She was in a daze for a long time, and Police Officer Lin read the book quietly for a long time. When the afterglow of the sunset dyed the sky red, he packed his bags and left, looking for food in the place where the fireworks were the thickest in the city.

Another day in a blink of an eye.

She continued to be in a daze, and Officer Lin continued to read quietly. When the sky was full of red clouds, the two left in the light rain.

third day.

Ruan Wen was not in a daze, he was reading a book, she was watching him, and drew a focused side face on the drawing board that should be painting a landscape.

As the evening approached, Lin Yue said that he would take her to eat the best food in Qindao.

When she arrived at the destination, she realized that the delicacy in Officer Lin's mouth was packed in wooden barrels and beer mugs.

When she was half drunk, Lin Yue stopped her from drinking, and took her to the embankment south of May Fourth Square.

The sea under the night is vast and mighty, the sound of the waves is like a drum, the warm wind is passing by with wetness, the whistle is slow in the distance, and the waves are busy.

Ruan Wen stood in front of the dam, and the sea breeze blew her clothes, blowing away her long hair, strands of blue silk danced mischievously between the silk scarf and her cheeks.

"I'll go back to Vancouver with you," she said.

Lin Yue was stunned for a moment: "Why, haven't you painted the begonias at Ningwuguan?"

Ruan Wen looked at the sea and said, "It's time to say goodbye to some things."

Lin Yue didn't speak, just quietly accompanied her for a while and then drove back.

Turning around early in the morning, Lin Yue knocked on the door of Room 3302 for a long time but received no response. Just as he was about to go downstairs to look for it, the guest room phone rang.
