Chapter 001: Zero Footsteps

Chapter 001 The footsteps at zero o’clock.

The train station in Peiping was noisy, with shouts everywhere and some coolies asking if they needed help carrying their luggage.

There were two people seeing him off at the entrance of the train station. The man who was leaving was dressed in black and looked a little thin, with a resolute face and a short beard, but his smile gave people a very sunny look.

"Brother Ye came to Peiping this time. It's a pity that I couldn't have a good time with him!"

The man who came to see him off was wearing a Chinese tunic suit and was very handsome. He helped the man pull a piece of luggage, as if he was very reluctant to part with him.

"Brother Zhuo is busy with official duties. Bingyin understands that. Brother Zhuo is also doing it for the safety of the people in Peiping. Besides, I also had a lot of fun in Peking. I have to thank Brother Zhuo for his recommendation."

When Zhuo Ran saw Ye Bingyin say this, he was no longer polite, so he continued: "Brother Ye, go back this time and say hello to the old man for me. I haven't been able to go back for a long time."

Ye Bingyin was about to say yes when suddenly a newsboy crowded in front of him and shouted: "Sir, buy a newspaper. It's very cheap. You can read it when you are bored in the car."

"Bring me a newspaper!" Zhuoran said with a smile.

"Thank you, sir!" The newsboy took the money from Zhuo Ran and immediately went to other places to sell.

Zhuoran handed the newspaper to Ye Bingyin and said with a smile: "Taking the train is boring, this newspaper should be used to relieve boredom."

Ye Bingyin smiled and took the newspaper and stuffed it into the suitcase. He patted Zhuo Ran on the shoulder and said, "You are always so thoughtful."

Zhuoran looked at his watch and said anxiously: "The train will leave in half an hour. You should hurry up and buy a ticket."

Ye Bingyin took the luggage from Zhuo Ran, then looked at Zhuo Ran, then resolutely turned around and walked into the ticket office of the train station.

"Buy a ticket to the luxury carriage to Xiangcheng." Ye Bingyin handed over the money, but the conductor was hesitant to accept it.

"What's wrong with you? Is it possible that the tickets for the luxury carriage are sold out?" Ye Bingyin was a little confused.

"No, no, there is another luxury car, but this ticket has already been reserved by someone, and that person hasn't come to pick it up yet, so I..."

Ye Bingyin thought for a while and then said: "Can the person who booked the train ticket come today? The train is almost leaving. I don't think he can come."

While the conductor was hesitating, a voice suddenly came from behind Ye Bingyin: "Whoever said you can't come, I'm the one who booked that ticket."

Ye Bingyin turned around curiously, and then he saw a woman with curly hair, an oval face, thin shoulders, and very gorgeous clothes.

The woman hurriedly walked to the ticket booth, handed over the money, and then said, "Give me that ticket."

The conductor looked at the woman and felt that he had an extraordinary temperament and must be a respectable person, so he quickly handed the train ticket to the woman. But just as she handed it over, Ye Bingyin suddenly handed over the train ticket.

He grabbed the ticket and said to the woman: "You said you booked this train ticket, but do you have evidence that you booked it?"

The woman's face was slightly red, "I said I ordered it, so I ordered it. Can it be false?"

Ye Bingyin smiled, and then said to the conductor: "A luxury carriage is enough for two people. You just charged two people, so the two of us will live in the same carriage."

After Ye Bingyin finished speaking, he looked at the woman and smiled. The woman had no choice but to stamp her feet, pick up her luggage and walk into the station.

Ye Bingyin asked for another pass before immediately chasing after him.

The woman stood at the ticket gate and kept getting angry. When she saw Ye Bingyin walking over, she stretched out her hand and asked, "My train ticket."

Ye Bingyin smiled and then said: "The girl is so angry. I think you also know how uncomfortable it is in the ordinary carriage. It is already very comfortable for the two of us to live in a luxury carriage. You don't want the two of us to be together."

Let’s all stay in ordinary carriages.”

Ye Bingyin said that even though he said this, he still gave the train ticket to the woman. The woman took the train ticket and handed it to the ticket inspector, then picked up her luggage and entered the waiting room.

Ye Bingyin looked at the woman and smiled, then followed her in.

There were still twenty minutes before the train left, and soon the train whistle sounded. The woman picked up her luggage and got on the train without even looking at Ye Bingyin.

Deluxe carriage number six.

Ye Bingyin followed the swarming crowd onto the train, then grabbed his luggage and found luxury car No. 6. When he opened the door, the woman was already inside.

Ye Bingyin put the luggage in, and then said to the woman: "My name is Ye Bingyin, what is your girl's name?"

The woman secretly cursed in her heart: "Ye Bingyin, you look quite masculine, why do you call me such a name? Humph, you want to live in the same compartment with me and see how I deal with you."

Ye Bingyin saw that the woman kept making the bed and ignored him, so he took a look at the carriage. The carriage was not very big, but it could still sleep two people, but there was only one bed in the entire carriage.

"Thank you so much for making the bed for me." Ye Bingyin saw that this woman was so aloof, so he wanted to provoke her, because such a woman is the most interesting.

The woman suddenly straightened up after hearing Ye Bingyin's words, but when she straightened up, Ye Bingyin immediately lay down on the bed, and then looked at the woman with a smile.

"You...you get up."

The woman said angrily, as if she had never been so insulted before.

"Girl, tell me your name before I get up!" Ye Bingyin said a little rogue.

The woman had no choice but to look at Ye Bing with hateful eyes and said, "Hua Rou."

Ye Bingyin sat up from the bed and said with a smile: "It turns out to be Miss Hua. Where is Miss Hua going?"

"Xiangcheng!"

"Oh, what a coincidence. I am also going to Xiangcheng, but I don't think the girl is from Xiangcheng. Could it be that she is going to Xiangcheng to find a relative?"

Hua Rou was a little angry, "It's up to you to take care of what I do when I go to Xiangcheng. Come down quickly and I'll sleep on the bed while you sleep on the floor."

"Girl is really good at joking. Can I sleep on the floor bunk on this train?"

"Why... why can't you sleep!" Hua Rou said and wanted to pull Ye Bingyin away, but Ye Bingyin sat there and suddenly shouted: "Men and women do not kiss each other, don't touch me, it will harm me."

The impact is not good.”

After hearing Ye Bingyin's words, Hua Rou really collapsed, so she stood in front of Ye Bingyin and said, "Then what will it take for you to give up your bed to me?"

Ye Bingyin thought for a while and finally said: "Let's do this. You pay for my train ticket and I will give it to you."

If Ye Bingyin said this himself in the future, Hua Rou would definitely disagree, so he could spend some time with her, but as soon as he finished speaking, Hua Rou took out the money from her bag for Ye Bingyin.

Ye Bingyin took the money and stood up with a smile. What he said just now was so direct, it would be impossible not to let it go now.

As soon as Ye Bingyin stood up, Hua Rou lay on the bed, and then she never left Ye Bingyin again.

The train rumbled away. Ye Bingyin sat on a chair and read the newspaper Zhuoran bought for him. There was nothing in the newspaper that could arouse his interest. He was a detective in Xiangcheng, so he was naturally interested in the case, but

Except for some trivial cases, there is no news of any value in the newspapers in Peiping.

It was already dark, and it was early autumn, so the weather was gradually getting colder, but in this luxurious carriage, I couldn't feel the slightest chill.

Hua Rou lay in bed but couldn't fall asleep. She had never fallen asleep on a train. She always slept on the best bed whether abroad or at home. She was as charming as the Pea Girl in the Western fairy tale.

How could she sleep on the bed on the train?

"Hey, are you asleep?"

Hua Rou couldn't sleep, so she shouted to Ye Bingyin.

Ye Bingyin was about to fall asleep, but after Hua Rou shouted, his sleepiness disappeared completely. With such a beautiful woman talking to him, no matter how sleepy he was, he had to keep himself awake.

"No, what's the matter?"

"How do you know that the train ticket was not reserved by me?" Huarou asked curiously.

Ye Bingyin smiled and asked: "You really want to know?"

"Tch, you want to talk or not!" Huarou turned over and stopped looking at Ye Bingyin, but secretly thought in her heart: "If you don't tell me, I think you are blind."

But Ye Bingyin still said, "It's very simple. You looked very panicked at the time, so I concluded that you must have been in a hurry. If you had booked that train ticket, would you still be in such a hurry?

, even though it’s only half an hour before the train leaves, it won’t make you so anxious.”

"That's all?" Hua Rou asked curiously.

"That's all!" Ye Bingyin answered calmly.

"Sometimes you think many things are difficult to understand. In fact, as long as you are willing to use your brain, everything is very simple. This is reasoning."

After Ye Bingyin finished speaking, he looked at Hua Rou on the bed. Hua Rou was a little embarrassed by Ye Bingyin's look, "Inference? Are you a detective?"

Ye Bingyin smiled and said, "Yes, I am a police officer from Xiangcheng Police Station."

When Hua Rou heard Ye Bingyin say this, she smiled secretly in her heart and thought: "Okay, you are a police detective in Xiangcheng, so you dare to bully me. When I get to Xiangcheng, I will look better than you."

In the middle of the night, Ye Bingyin had fallen asleep, snoring slightly, but Hua Rou still couldn't sleep. She tossed and turned on the bed, and finally sat up helplessly, but just when she was about to wake Ye Bingyin up again.

At that moment, she suddenly heard light footsteps outside the door.

Huarou opened her watch and looked at it. It was now zero o'clock. Normally, the conductor would not be walking around at this time. It would be excused if someone went to the toilet. But Huarou suddenly heard the sound of the door slamming. If it was

To go to the toilet, people outside should go to the end of the train. Why do they enter the house here!
