sun and wildflowers

At six o'clock in the afternoon, Jiang Ming came out from the first gate of the unit, and before he changed his police uniform, his phone rang.

The caller is: "Chen Mai".

Jiang Ming was shocked when he saw the name, and quickly picked it up: "Hey, Maizi."

"I'll give you 10 minutes, Ma Liu, come here!"

The roar penetrated through the phone, Jiang Ming frowned severely.

"A temporary meeting..."

"I've been waiting for you for an hour!"

"almost there."

Jiang Ming hung up the phone and went straight to the door, he couldn't be sure what Chen Mai would do if he dawdled for a while, like the last time he was late, Chen Mai blackmailed him with a beeswax bracelet, more than 6000... ...

The eating place is very close to Jiang Ming's work unit, and it takes 15 minutes to walk. Chen Mai's time is stuck at 10 minutes, and Jiang Ming can't do it if he doesn't run.

Last night, it was almost early morning when he received a call from Chen Mai. He was sleeping soundly at that time. As soon as Chen Mai opened his mouth, Jiang Ming knew that she must be drinking. Cut off the phone.

A drunk woman is a completely different kind of creature, and Chen Mai has mutated to a complete extent. He must respond to her requests, otherwise there will be endless.

......

When Jiang Ming was still one block away from the restaurant, the heavy rain started without warning, so he hurried there.

Walking into the restaurant, Jiang Ming immediately attracted the attention of many people, especially women. He quietly tore off the siren on his left chest and stuffed it into his coat pocket.

"Here it is!"

Chen Mai swung the fork at Jiang Ming twice, as if he was aiming at the target.

Jiang Ming knew the location of the window without looking at it. Chen Mai suffered from claustrophobia, and it happened intermittently. Others said that she would die if she saw the light, but she would die if she didn't see the light.

Jiang Ming once asked Chen Mai like this, "Why do you still want to be a flight attendant when you are claustrophobic?! Aren't you afraid of jumping off the plane?"

At that time, Chen Mai replied very meaninglessly: "As long as I see handsome foreign men, I will be free from all diseases."

Jiang Ming patted the rainwater off his body, and strode towards the window, but before he could sit still, Chen Mai started nagging, "It's really stubborn, I'm always late when I come back, I even made an appointment at the door of your unit and you're still late , then I might as well rob you on the road before looking for you next time, and lock me in!"

Cursing, Chen Mai still threw the mineral water on the table to Jiang Ming.

Jiang Ming unscrewed the bottle cap, gulped down half of the bottle, raised his hand to wipe the corner of his mouth, and said flatly, "The female prisoner is next door."

"You say it again?!", the beef cutting knife in Chen Mai's hand almost cut off the plate.

"There's a big meeting at the top, we're going to have a small meeting, I'm afraid you might be in a hurry and I came here without even changing my clothes."

After Jiang Ming finished speaking, she glanced at Chen Mai, and she looked at him in a leisurely manner, her eyes filled with "make it up! Keep making it up!"

"How many times have you seen me in police uniform?"

Well, this explanation seems to have convinced Chen Mai, she looked away, and began to concentrate on dealing with the medium-rare steak.

"How long do you plan to stay this time?"

The conversation was finally put on the right track by Jiang Ming.

"I changed two flights with my colleagues, plus annual leave... I can take fifteen days."

The words inside and outside the words can't hide the joy of vacation.

Chen Mai is 26 years old this year, majoring in English at Beijing Foreign Studies University. His mother is from Xinjiang. She was extremely beautiful when she was young, and she passed on all the best genes in her body to her daughter. Therefore, Chen Mai has basically been beautiful since she was a child.

Although Jiang Ming didn't think so.

But the men who met Chen Mai all gave a unanimous evaluation, that is, "This woman is poisonous."

Love flower poison.

After graduating from university, Chen Mai followed the orders of her parents to take the English teacher exam, but she resigned within two months of working, saying that she had no passion in life, and then took the flight attendant exam. After passing the exam, she flew all over the world, except for the occasional domestic flight. , The number of times he comes back from a year's official vacation is not many, but every time he comes back, he spends most of his time hanging out with Jiang Ming.

......

In the western restaurant, the piano music is flowing like water waves, like the sound of raindrops hitting the eaves.

Jiang Ming leaned back as if his whole body was exhausted, his face full of lovelessness.

"Fifteen days..."

Chen Mai knew what Jiang Ming meant, she cast a wink at her, and said coquettishly, "I'll ask Police Officer Jiang to take care of me for the past half month!"

Jiang Ming swung his hand and made a gesture of wiping his neck, "If any brother can give me a knife now, Jiang will be very grateful!"

Chen Mai smiled, showing eight standard white teeth, and asked, "How are you doing?"

"Me?" Jiang Ming raised his eyebrows, "It's the same as before, on and off duty, and when I have nothing to do, I follow the prisoners to the compound to bask in the sun, they let the wind out, and I, let it go..."

"Have you been promoted?"

They really poke each other's sore spots...

Jiang Ming snorted and said, "No, I've only worked for a few years, and besides, you also know that I'm not interested in official career. If the old man didn't force me to force me back then, I wouldn't have gone to the police academy."

Chen Mai crossed his arms and began to make serious afterthoughts, "I said long ago that your face is not suitable for a prison guard, but at first glance you look like a pretty face, who would be afraid of you!"

Little white face?

Miss Chen, please pay attention to your words.

Jiang Ming narrowed his eyes, looked at Chen Mai, and in the next second, she seemed to have an epiphany, and said, "I praise you for your good skin."

The meaning of flattery is obvious.

Jiang Ming didn't say anything else, picked up the knife and fork on the table and started cutting beef. He still couldn't figure out what to eat with this thing, but even though he didn't like it, he still had to fill his stomach, otherwise he would have to cook it when he got home. Noodles are out.

"I asked you to ask for leave, did you ask for it?"

Jiang Ming said, "Hmm." "Please, but it hasn't been approved yet. I'll ask the leader when I get to work tomorrow. I've been working on commuting my sentence recently. It will be handed in at the end of May, so I'm a bit busy."

"Then let me know when the vacation is approved, and I will book a plane ticket."

Jiang Ming's thinking couldn't keep up with her, so he raised his head and asked, "Have you decided where to go before booking the ticket?"

Chen Mai tapped his head with the handle of the knife in his hand, a childlike smile flashed across his face, and he said, "I want to go to Qinghai."

Jiang Ming nodded, "Okay, let's go to Qinghai then."

He has no objections at all.

"By the way", Chen Mai leaned over and took out a bag from left to right in the bag, "This is for you."

Jiang Ming looked down at the packaging bag that Chen Mai threw over, "Calvin Klein." With just one glance, he knew what the gift was.

"Open it to see the size, right?"

Jiang Ming bit his lower lip resentfully, left the bag on the chair beside him, and replied angrily, "Eat your meal!"

The rest of the time is left for Chen Mai to wow those anecdotes from all over the world, which flight has the longest legs, where the guests are the most difficult to serve, or what kind of superstar she has met again.

Jiang Ming is very serious about being a listener. This is the secret to keeping their friendship fresh. She is responsible for speaking and he is responsible for listening.

Having known each other for more than ten years, this tacit understanding is still there.

......

After the meal, Chen Mai paid the bill first.

From Jiang Ming's point of view, this woman has only one advantage, that is, she is generous, and she is very generous, never stingy with every friend.

Outside, the rain had no intention of stopping, so Chen Mai drove Jiang Ming to the side entrance of his community, the inside was a little narrow, even if he drove in, he couldn't get out with Chen Mai's driving skills.

Jiang Ming waved his hand at Chen Mai and said, "Slow down and call when you get home."

After walking two steps, he suddenly remembered something and turned around, "By the way, remind you to be restrained when you and the local men "applaud for love"."

A word "Get out!" floated out from the crack of the window that was about to be rolled up, but it was scattered by the rain before it could reach Jiang Ming.

Yuhui Community, Uncle Li's grocery store.

Different from the store on the street, this grocery store is on the first floor of a residential building in the community. The entrance and exit of the balcony windows are remodeled, and there are some flowers and plants raised by Uncle Li and his wife at the bottom of the wall, which can be regarded as an indispensable part of the greening of the community. pen.

Since the sensor was installed at the door, Uncle Li can watch a group of old men and women playing mahjong in the back room with great peace of mind every day, instead of idly guarding in the front room.

After saying "Welcome", Jiang Ming walked into the shop.

After waiting for about five seconds for the door of the inner room to open, Uncle Li stepped forward with one foot, but without turning his head, he gestured with his hand and said, "Old Li, I just said that you can't shoot that one, so I'm going to shoot black cannons." Bar!"

"I advised you so much just now, don't listen to the old man at all..."

Uncle Li murmured a few more words, and then he heard old Li's voice sighing, he probably lost a lot in this game.

Jiang Ming couldn't help pursing his lips and laughing, he suddenly wondered if he would live such a life when he was old, playing cards while drinking tea, but there was a problem that he still didn't know how to play that.

"Yo! Is Liushui off work?"

Liushui is the nickname given to Jiang Ming by Uncle Li. Because the radicals of his name are two three-dot waters, he became "Liushui". Even in the work unit, he was not immune to being called "Shui elder brother."

Jiang Ming was secretly grateful to his father who drove west a few years ago, if his old man had more knowledge, Jiang Ming would probably become a vast ocean by now...

"Uncle Li, come to Zhongnanhai, order eight."

Jiang Ming tilted his head and glanced at the shelf of cigarettes behind the cash register, and said.

"Liu Shui has been smoking a little bit recently. If you are young, you should smoke less." When Uncle Li said this, he was also swallowing his breath, squinting at Jiang Ming, and the posture of the person who came over was very straight. high.

Jiang Ming smiled, put the money on the cash register, quickly tore open the cigarette case, took out a cigarette from inside, lit it directly, then shook the cigarette in his hand, and said, "Let's go, Uncle Li."

"Hey! Liushui walk slowly."

After coming out of the grocery store, the rain still didn't stop. On rainy nights, the smell of lilacs was strong and ambiguous. This city has such a scenery every May. Jiang Ming has long been used to it, and he is not in the mood to stop and admire it.

Just after walking a few steps, he heard a noise, accompanied by a few swear words, and the sound of bones colliding. It was obviously a fight.

Jiang Ming stepped on the rainwater and continued to walk forward.

Maybe it was the police uniform that was causing trouble, or maybe he was fascinated by the half glass of red wine for dinner, so he turned his head and took a look.

In the dark alley, there were no street lights, a group of people gathered together, and Jiang Ming could vaguely see someone lying on the ground.
