On a rainy night, the school beauty knocked on my door and asked for shelter
Chapter Summary
Su Yuqing's first reaction was to lean back and avoid it, but thinking that she came here to ask something of Chen Mo, she forced herself to control her body and just stood there quietly, allowing Chen Mo's trembling and warm hands to reach out to her. When Chen Mo's palm was three centimeters away from her cheek, the girl's neck subconsciously tilted back, causing the wet ends of her hair to brush across the back of his hand. At the same time, he changed his mind and thought about using his man...

is really back!
"Is this real?
" Chen Mo subconsciously reached out and tried to touch the girl in front of him.
Su Yuqing's first reaction was to lean back and avoid it, but thinking that she came here to ask something of Chen Mo, she forced herself to control her body and just stood there quietly, allowing Chen Mo's trembling and warm hands to reach out to her.
When Chen Mo's palm was three centimeters away from her cheek, the girl's neck subconsciously tilted back, causing the wet ends of her hair to brush across the back of his hand.
"I'm really back?
" As the palm of his hand felt the clear touch of a cool and smooth face, Chen Mo's Adam's apple rolled and squeezed out a breath, and the joint of his index finger gently rubbed the raindrops condensed on her cheekbone.
Su Yuqing's eyelashes trembled like a swallowtail butterfly in a rainstorm, casting broken shadows under her eyes.
She forced herself to loosen her clenched fists and let the boy's calloused fingertips caress her cheek, the warmth was so touching.
This clear touch and slightly trembling reaction made Chen Mo certain that he was really facing a living Su Yuqing.
Plop, raindrops exploded into crystal fragments on the corridor railing, and Chen Mo's thumb hung half an inch from the corner of her lips.
Ha!
The warm palm and the cold air intertwined, causing Su Yuqing to suddenly tilt her head and sneeze.
The tip of her red nose bumped into Chen Mo's palm, which he didn't have time to retract.
This unexpected touch froze both of them.
The girl's moist breath condensed on his wrist, like a tangled transparent silk thread.
"Yes, I'm sorry!
" Su Yuqing stepped back in a hurry, but accidentally slipped and fell backwards because of the wet ground.
Chen Mo subconsciously put his arms around her waist, and the touch of her butterfly bones under her school uniform shirt in Chen Mo's palm was so clear and distinct.
The entrance mirror reflected overlapping figures.
Su Yuqing grabbed Chen Mo's arm in a panic.
Because she used too much force, her nails dug deep into Chen Mo's forearm, and blood was oozing out with her rapid breathing.
"I'm sorry, I hurt you.
" Su Yuqing hurriedly apologized again in panic.
Looking at Su Yuqing who was like a frightened deer, Chen Mo suddenly exerted force and hugged her in his arms.
Except for the sound of heavy rain, the surroundings were completely silent.
At this moment, the two seemed to be able to hear each other's heartbeat and breathing.
Although she didn't know why Chen Mo suddenly hugged her, Su Yuqing still chose not to move.
"That's great.
" Chen Mo whispered to himself, his voice so low that even Su Yuqing, who was beside her, couldn't hear it clearly.
Suddenly, Chen Mo loosened his hands and retreated to the edge of the light.
He smiled apologetically and said, "I saw that you were too cold, so I couldn't help but warm you up.
Sorry...
"Looking at Chen Mo's smile that was like the warm spring sunshine, Su Yuqing felt a hint of warmth in her cold body.
"It's okay...
" She nodded and shook her head.
"Come in quickly, I'll get a towel.
" Chen Mo immediately invited Su Yuqing into the house.
Looking at the delicate face of the girl in front of him, which had lost some of its color due to being drenched by the cold rain, his mood was extremely excited and complicated.
In his previous life, Chen Mo found it hard to believe that a girl would not go home late at night, so she ran to the home of a classmate with whom he had only some connections to beg for shelter.
Having heard some stories about honey traps, he was wary and refused, not letting her in.
As a result, they received bad news the next day.
Su Yuqing was killed by someone who slit her throat in an alley in a nearby block.
Her clothes were disheveled when she died.
It was said that the gangster had attempted rape and was discovered by passers-by.
He then slit the girl's throat and ran away.
It turned out that the passerby was actually just passing by them, and because the rain was so heavy, he did not hear or see clearly what happened at the time.
The prisoner was simply scared and ran away.
Because of this, Su Yuqing died tragically in the heavy rain, and was washed away by the downpour for a whole night before she was finally discovered.
However, the heavy rain that lasted all night washed away all traces, making it impossible to find the criminals.
The case has since become an unsolved case.
Chen Mo felt guilty about it and finally decided to apply to the police academy, vowing to get to the bottom of the case.
He worked hard to become a criminal policeman and joined the criminal police team.
After making many contributions, he finally had the opportunity to investigate the case again.
However, there is too little useful information about this case.
No matter how hard Chen Mo tries, he can only find out fragmentary and incomplete information from the vague memories of people who were nearby at that time.
It is impossible to piece together the complete picture of the case, and it is even more difficult to find the criminals.
In particular, this criminal never committed another crime in Linjiang City after committing this crime.
Naturally, it is even more impossible to verify.
This matter has always been a knot in Chen Mo's heart.
I didn't expect that today I just wanted to get in the rain on a whim, but by chance I was struck by lightning and returned to the moment when I drove Su Yuqing away.
This time, he decided to prevent this tragedy from happening.
At the same time, he changed his mind and thought about using his many years of criminal investigation experience to go directly to the crime scene tonight to see if he could find the real murderer who killed Su Yuqing.
"Come in first.
" When Su Yuqing was nervously pulling at the corner of her clothes, she suddenly heard these words unexpectedly.
She had already prepared answers to various possible questions that Chen Mo might ask, because she felt that if she made such a strange request to Chen Mo so presumptuously, he would definitely dig deep into the matter.
She never expected that the other party would let her into the house without asking her to explain.
However, the less Chen Mo asked, the more anxious Su Yuqing became.
Although she had prepared herself mentally for anything to happen when she asked to live in Chen Mo's house, when she actually entered the room and were alone with a man and a woman, her eardrums immediately began to beat like thunder, and the damp school uniform fabric began to stick to her chest and rise and fall violently as her breathing accelerated.
The sensor light in the entrance hall cast a swaying spot of light at her feet.
When Chen Mo turned around to get his slippers, the breeze brought a faint scent of sandalwood.
"My socks are wet and will soak your slippers," she whispered.
"Then don't wear slippers for now.
Just come in and we'll mop the floor later.
" Chen Mo said indifferently.
Su Yuqing nodded, but in her heart she was trying hard to muster up her courage.
On this rainy night with no one around, she entered the boy's house alone.
They were alone in the same room, and her clothes were all wet.
Her pink skin and private clothes were clearly exposed as she stood in front of the boy.
She felt extremely shy and uneasy.
But she had clearly made up her mind before she came that whatever Chen Mo did would be fine.
As long as she could live here, she didn't know what she was worried about...
Su Yuqing dug her nails deep into her palms, forcing herself to calm down.
Water droplets flowed down the hem of her skirt, leaving winding trails on the floor.
She seemed to hear her own rapid breathing echoing in the empty living room, like a butterfly with its wings wet by a rainstorm fluttering in a glass cover.
When Chen Mo turned around to get a towel, she quickly glanced at the room with the corner of her eye - the sneakers tilted at the entrance, the steaming teapot on the coffee table, the Vitasoy carton tilted next to the TV cabinet, every trace of life made her tense back relax half an inch.
