"Yes."
The morning light outside the window was dim, but the room was warm and quiet. The two of them looked at each other and did not speak for a while.
Early in the morning, Ji Bai was indeed shocked by the news, but it only lasted for a moment. Joy quickly grew in his heart like a large patch of fresh green grass.
He pulled her into his arms and asked softly, "Didn't I wear a condom? You took your medicine too. "
There was a period of time when Ji Bai did not wear a condom and Xu Xu took a long-term contraceptive that was commonly seen on the market. She answered sullenly, "The weather in Lin City is humid, maybe the medicine was damp. Also, didn't you drop the condom when you came out once? "
Ji Bai stared at her for a moment, then wrapped her hands in his palms and said with a smile, "It's my fault."
Xu Xu lowered her head and did not say a word.
Ji Bai's heart skipped a beat when he saw her serious expression.
Ji Bai would not be too surprised if Xu Xu wanted to abort the child. She had just graduated and was young, so she had no intention of having a child. In addition, she was independent and had a strong sense of career, so it was very likely that she would make such a choice.
However, Ji Bai had been educated since he was a child that abortion should not happen.
Moreover, how could he let his own woman have an abortion? It was too harmful to her body.
He looked up at her quiet and pale little face, and his heart gradually softened. However, there was no doubt that he would convince her to keep the child. He pondered for a moment, and just as he was about to speak, he saw her suddenly raise her head and look at him with a determined face.
Ji Bai's heart tightened.
Xu Xu stared at him and said, "I still need to go to the hospital for a checkup, but I'm not far from it."
She paused for a moment before she continued, "If I'm pregnant, frankly speaking, no matter what you think, I want to give birth to this child."
The sky outside the window turned slightly white, and everything around them was quiet like a dream. Ji Bai looked at her clear, black eyes, and his heart was filled with a warm feeling.
Perhaps it was because she saw that Ji Bai was silent, Xu Xu frowned slightly and continued to explain, "I made this decision after careful consideration. Twenty-five or twenty-six years old is the best age for a woman to get pregnant, and abortion is harmful to the body. Moreover, this is a life, so I can't accept it … "
"Alright." A deep and mellow voice interrupted her argument. Ji Bai pulled her into his chest, lowered his head and kissed her.
Their tongues intertwined passionately for a moment before he let go of her. His dark eyes were still staring at her, and he smiled deeply. "Since you want to give birth, of course, I'll listen to you."
Xu Xu could not help but laugh as well.
In fact, after the pregnancy test, her mood was a little heavy the whole night. Although he had made a prompt decision to live, it was still a matter of great importance and he hadn't made any preparations. How could he relax? Ji Bai's undisguised joy and approval at this moment really comforted her a lot.
Ji Bai looked up at the clock on the wall. It was 6 o 'clock, two hours before work. He couldn't ask for leave during the day for the next few days.
"Change your clothes. We're going to the hospital now."
"Yes."
By the time Xu Xu washed up, Ji Bai had already changed his clothes and called his friend to contact the Municipal Women's Hospital. After everything was arranged, he picked up the car key on the table and walked a few steps to the door. Then he turned back, opened the drawer, took out the ring hidden in a stack of clothes, and put it in his pocket.
The sky was gloomy and rainy, and the hospital was cold and quiet early in the morning. The two of them waited in the obstetrics and gynecology department for a while before a doctor came.
The test results came out very quickly. Every indicator was in line with the standard, and the pregnancy was confirmed.
When the two of them returned to the car, it was still raining. The sky had also brightened, and the whole street was wet as if it was shrouded in a mist.
Ji Bai did not drive away immediately. Instead, he parked the car on the boulevard outside the hospital, held her hand, and quietly looked at the curtain of rain.
Xu Xu was also silent. This news came too suddenly, and she had a lot of things to think about.
Ji Bai was also thinking about it. 'I've been busy with the case recently, but I have to find some time to go to her house to propose marriage. I originally wanted to hold an engagement ceremony first, but that can be saved. Once the case is over, I can prepare for the wedding, but time is too tight. No matter what, I might have to hold the wedding while pregnant …'
He also put his hand into his pocket and held the ring box. The situation was too ordinary and unromantic, but he still could not suppress the smile at the corner of his mouth.
He coughed and cleared his throat. Just as he was about to take out the ring, he heard her say, "Third Brother, about the marriage, I want to discuss it with you."
Ji Bai's heart skipped a beat. "Go ahead." He held the ring in his pocket without moving.
Xu Xu turned to look at him with a sincere gaze. "Pregnancy is pregnancy, marriage is marriage. We don't have to get married for the sake of the child. After all, the two of us have only been together for half a year. Although I already love you very much, marriage is a lifelong commitment, so we still have to be careful.
We are still in the initial honeymoon phase, so we should get to know each other better. After a period of time, when our relationship is stable and mature, we can consider marriage when the time is right. This way, our marriage will be more stable, more lasting, and happier.
Of course, the child will still take your surname. "
The rain outside the window was pitter-patter, and there were more and more cars on the road. Ji Bai looked at Xu Xu and remained silent.
He should have expected it. In her heart, getting pregnant before marriage was not a big deal at all. She wanted to get married when their relationship was more mature, which was in line with her cautious and slow personality. In fact, at first, he also planned to get engaged first, and then get married next year.
However, when she said "I already love you very much", his heart throbbed. Neither of them had ever said sweet words like "I love you", but who would have thought that she would inadvertently blurt it out today.
However … according to what she said, in the future, when their son ran around everywhere, he might not even have a status?
Then he would be a failure as a man.
Of course, he would not let this happen.
After pondering for a moment, he said softly, "Xu Xu, of course, you have to be willing to get married. However, you don't have to jump to conclusions too early. You see, you've just gotten pregnant, and it will take another year to give birth. By then, we will have been together for almost two years, and your thoughts will definitely be different from now. When you first got together with me, you probably didn't expect to 'love me very much' now, right? I think we can decide when the time comes. This is a prudent and responsible attitude. "
Xu Xu thought that was true, so she nodded. "Okay."
Ji Bai smiled and stopped talking about this topic. Although it was just a delaying tactic, he would make a decision when the time came to convince her. He felt a little disappointed as he had to continue hiding the ring in his pocket. However, he was not very worried. Not to mention that when the time came, the father would become more important because of the son. She had already loved him very much in half a year, and after another year, she would definitely not be able to leave him.
The two of them did not speak again. Ji Bai drove the car exceptionally steadily, and he weaved through the traffic.
When he reached a red light, he slowly stopped. He glanced sideways and saw that Xu Xu had taken out the murder photos and was looking at them again.
Ji Bai did not care at first, but after a while, he realized that this prenatal education was really bloody.
However, as a criminal police officer, she could not avoid it. In the end, Ji Bai said, "Look less if you can."
Xu Xu was a little stunned and did not answer. Suddenly, she looked up at him, and her eyes were shining. "I remember where I've seen a similar scene!"
While Ji Bai and Xu Xu were driving on the city road, in a room far away, another woman was ushering in the most terrifying and trembling moment of the day.
The woman was wearing a light blue dress, and her whole body was very fair and clean. Her wrists and ankles were locked to the bed, and she could not get out of the bed at all.
The door was pushed open with a squeak, and a man walked in. The woman's body trembled slightly, and she shrank into the bed, but she could only watch as he approached.
The man smiled at her, and first took off his clothes, revealing his strong naked body. Then, he held her in his arms and took off her clothes one by one. When she was lying in front of him like a lamb, he was not in a hurry to conquer her. Instead, he lowered his head and sniffed along her skin inch by inch.
"You smell good," he murmured.
The woman forced a smile, but a layer of goosebumps appeared all over her body. The man saw this, but he was not angry. He picked up a glass of water from the table and handed it to her. A sorrowful expression appeared on the woman's face, but she could only take it and drink it.
Very soon, there was a reaction. Her snow-white body was flushed, and she heard herself moaning uncontrollably. The man sat by the bed and quietly watched her twisting body, and his Adam's apple slowly rolled.
After a while, he took out the camera, and the flash continued to flash. He clearly recorded her misty eyes and moist private parts. Then, he threw the camera to the side, held her waist, lowered his head, and bit the plump red stamen on one side of her body.
Then, he threw the camera to the side, held her waist, lowered his head, and bit the plump red stamen on one side of her body.
"Do you like that I want you?"
"Yes … Yes …" The woman's voice sounded like she was sobbing, but it also sounded like she was happy.
"Call me."
"Hubby … Hubby …"
"What else?"
"I love you … I love you …"
…
Ji Bai and Xu Xu drove directly to the provincial office and found Xu Xu's senior, Sun Qinglin's office.
Sun Qinglin was a little surprised to see them. He hesitated for a while and asked, "Captain Ji, Xu Xu, what's the matter?"
Xu Xu handed him the crime scene photos. "Senior, do you have any impression of this scene?"
Sun Qinglin took it and looked at it, and his expression suddenly changed.
When Xu Xu was in the police academy, she assisted the professor in researching the American cases, and Sun Qinglin was mainly in charge of the Asian cases. Therefore, Xu Xu had an impression of seeing similar photos somewhere, but she was not as certain as Sun Qinglin. He quickly took out a box of documents from the filing cabinet and placed it in front of the two of them.
The photos were as beautiful as the paintings in life. Young and beautiful women lay curled up on the grass, on the ground, in the forest, by the stream … Even the style of their clothes was similar to the deceased, Bai Anan. They were all in warm colors and looked extremely fresh and gentle.
Sun Qinglin sat down and said, "This is the 'Angel Killer' case in Hong Kong three years ago. Currently, there are eight known victims, and the number of unknown victims is unknown. All of them were white-collar workers between the ages of 22 to 25. They went missing for a period of time and finally died of potassium cyanide poisoning. This case caused a stir in Hong Kong at that time. "
Ji Bai and Xu Xu nodded. They had heard of this case, but they did not know much about it.
Sun Qinglin picked up Bai Anan's photo. "The murderer was chased by the police and fell into the sea to his death. Some people said that he died, while others said that he fled the country. However, looking at this photo, I can almost conclude that if the murderer is not the murderer himself, then it must be a fanatic imitator of him. "
Ji Bai and Xu Xu were silent. Xu Xu asked, "Senior, you've focused on this case. Do you have his criminal psychological profile?"
Sun Qinglin said, "I don't only have his psychological profile, I also have all his information and photos." His tone became heavier. "He is from Lin City."
He quickly found a folder and handed it to the two of them.
The man in the photo was very young. He wore a simple white shirt and trousers. He wore a tie and had a crew cut. His angular face had handsome and heroic features. His thin lips had a gentle smile.
Sun Qinglin said, "Feng Ye, 22 years old at the time of the crime, 25 years old this year. Due to his excellent grades, he was admitted to the University of Hong Kong's Architecture Department with a full scholarship. After graduation, he worked as an employee of a listed company and obtained Hong Kong resident status. After the crime, the evidence was conclusive and he was wanted in Hong Kong. He went missing after that. "He sighed." If he really didn't die and returned to Lin City … "
Ji Bai asked, "Do you have his address in Lin City?"
"Yes." He flipped through a page of information and handed it to the two of them.
Half an hour later, Ji Bai parked the car outside the dormitory area of an old state-owned enterprise in the city. At the same time, he mobilized a few criminal police officers to stand guard around the area.
The two of them had sent Feng Ye's information back to the criminal police unit and ordered the entire city to search for him. At the same time, they contacted the Hong Kong police to obtain more information. When everyone heard the news, they were excited but their mood became heavier.
As they walked along the narrow road of the old residential area, Ji Bai stopped in his tracks. "Why don't you go back to the car and wait?"
Xu Xu glanced at him. "There's no need."
Ji Bai stopped persuading her and only reminded the other criminal police officers to be extra careful.
The murderer in this case was a psychopath, so Xu Xu's work would play a very important role. As the captain of the criminal police unit, he could not let her stay out of this.
He could only protect her better.
Feng Ye's house was on the sixth floor and his uncle opened the door. He was a thin man in his forties who worked as a technician in the factory.
"Does Feng Ye have any other relatives?" Xu Xu asked.
He answered, "No, his parents died a long time ago." He hesitated for a moment before asking, "Police officers, what do you want to investigate? The Hong Kong case … It's been a few years, didn't Feng Ye fall into the sea and die?"
Of course, no one answered. Ji Bai said, "We want to see Feng Ye's personal belongings."
The uncle nodded and led them to the balcony. He pointed at the junk in the corner of the balcony. "A lot of them were thrown away, the rest are here. Take a look. " Perhaps he did not want to talk anymore, so he turned around and was about to leave when Ji Bai asked again, "Has anyone else come to see Feng Ye recently?"
His uncle was a little surprised. Of course not. "
"Did anything unusual happen at home?"
His uncle looked at him in surprise. "How did you know? Last month, there was a burglary. It was the middle of the night. I heard the noise and ran to the balcony. She was gone and her things were turned upside down. But nothing is missing. "
Ji Bai and Xu Xu's hearts skipped a beat. Could this thief be related to Feng Ye?
After his uncle answered the questions, he went to the front hall. Ji Bai and Xu Xu picked up Feng Ye's things and looked through them carefully. After about half an hour, Ji Bai suddenly paused and passed a photo to Xu Xu.
It was Feng Ye's high school graduation photo. He was standing in the middle of the back row and looked a little more childish and delicate than Sun Qinglin's photo. Xu Xu did not notice anything out of the ordinary. She quickly glanced at everyone in the photo and was slightly shocked when she saw the girl in the front row. "Yao Meng?"
Ji Bai nodded. "They're classmates."
In the photo, Yao Meng had long hair and was wearing a long school dress. She looked very charming at that time.
Xu Xu said, "I'll contact her when I get back to the police station and see if she knows anything about Feng Ye's situation."
They continued to look through the photos, but they were all photos of Feng Ye when he was a child. There were no valuable clues. Ji Bai picked up a pile of books next to him and started to look through them. Suddenly, he paused and pulled out a photo and handed it to Xu Xu.
Xu Xu was also stunned when she saw it.
It was a photo of Yao Meng alone. She was wearing a police academy uniform and was sitting under the shade of a tree. She was looking down at a book. Pedestrians left silhouettes around her, but she did not seem to notice.
It looked like a photo taken secretly a few years ago.
