Chapter 12 S1.E12. Old Acquaintances

As night falls, Stone Lake Farm.

Levi's woke up in a chaotic nightmare, sat up and looked at the white gauze curtain dancing in the wind in a daze. corpse.

what time is it?Levi wiped the sweat off his face indiscriminately, and found that the hour hand had already pointed to ten o'clock in the middle of the night.

Eight hours have passed since the tragedy of Wang Hao and his son happened, and he still hasn't recovered from the shock of death.

He had never been so close to death. When his grandfather passed away, he was just held by his mother and watched from a distance outside the ICU door.

Sure enough, some things don't know how terrible they are until they have experienced them.

"Woohoo!" Barton opened the door and ran in, put his front paws on his body, and rubbed him affectionately.

Well, it's time for dinner... Levi pulled himself together and led Barton downstairs.

He and Zong Ming came back from the scene directly after the murder.The lunatic was shot in the head by Wang Hao and died on the spot. Wang Jian was also seriously injured and died. The only good news is that the explosives did not explode and all the hostages were rescued safely.

Wang Hao was taken away by people from the Shihu Town Police Station. Before leaving, Bai Xiaolei consulted Zong Ming, but Zong Ming did not produce the forged arrest warrant. Levi's went back to Stone Lake Farm.

Throughout the afternoon, they stayed in their respective territories without any communication.As soon as Levi's came back, he threw himself on the bed and fell asleep. If he was not awakened by the nightmare, he might sleep until tomorrow morning.

The light in the kitchen was on, Levi pushed the door open and went in, only to see a tall figure standing in front of the counter, lowering his head and fiddling with a delicate noodle press.

Zong Ming was wearing a homely T-shirt, sweatpants, and dark green plaid slippers. With his slender fingers, he mixed flour and warm water into the feed port.On the stove behind him, something was cooking in an enamel pot, steaming.There was a little sweat on his forehead, and the tattoos behind his ears were faintly visible. He had a contradictory sexy, lazy, but full of dormant danger.

"Are you awake?" Zong Ming raised his eyelids to look at him, took a chef's knife, and cut the pressed dough into cubes, "Get up and eat something before going to sleep, or you will wake up hungry in the middle of the night."

It was only then that Levi realized that Barton had been sent up specially to call him. Although he had no appetite at all, he graciously sat across from him: "Are you okay? How is your leg?"

"Well, it's okay, probably." Zong Ming turned down the heat a little, took out a large bowl from the refrigerator, and asked, "Have you ever eaten this?"

In the bowl was chopped lotus root, mixed with egg hibiscus, chives, and minced ginger. It looked like some kind of filling. Levi looked at the dough he had pressed and asked, "This is...wonton?" The lotus root He has never seen stuffed wontons before. In the past, restaurants at home always made fresh meat or shrimp stuffing.

"It's flat food." Zong Ming picked up a piece of dough, wrapped the filling, and shaped it into a beautiful swallow shape. "The local specialty is a bit similar to wonton, but not the same."

The way of wrapping seems to be different. Levi's washed his hands, wrapped a few like him, and gradually got used to it.Zong Ming handed it all over to him, and went to spread the egg skins by himself.

The kitchen is peaceful and comfortable, the air is filled with the fresh and sweet aroma of mushroom soup, the egg liquid in the frying pan makes a slight sizzling sound, Levi's focuses on the food in his hands, and the bloody shadows in his mind gradually become blurred and distant .

Suddenly the window rang, and a brisk step jumped in. It was Rommel who came back.As usual, it had a squirrel in its mouth as a present, bigger than the last one, with its tail still moving.

"Woohoo!" Barton immediately jumped up and wagged his tail flatteringly.However, seeing Zong Ming was there, Rommel ignored him, jumped off the counter with the squirrel in his mouth, and squatted at Zong Ming's feet.

"It's back." Zong Ming touched its head with his toe.Rommel looked very useful, with a coquettish grunt in his throat, spit the squirrel in his mouth at his feet, and called to him: "Mi!"

"Give it to me?" Zong Ming bent down to look at the squirrel, winked at Rommel, and pouted at Levi's.

Rommel looked very reluctant, but still obediently picked up the squirrel, walked to Levi's and put it down, and called angrily: "Meow!"

"Huh?" Levi looked at Zongming and then at Rommel, a little flattered, "Give it to me?"

"Mi." Rommel pushed the squirrel between his feet with an expression of "I really can't do anything with you", beckoning him to play.

Levi's gloomy mood became lighter because of this cute episode. He bent down to pick up the squirrel, and said to Rommel, "Thank you."

"Mi." Rommel shook his beard indifferently, turned around and ran away, squatting at Zong Ming's feet.

Zong Ming put the spreaded egg skins on a plate, glanced at Levi from the corner of his eyes, and saw that he was holding the squirrel with one hand and twirling its long tail with the other. He took out an empty cereal box from the cupboard and handed it over: "It's in it."

"Uh." Reeves took the box and asked, "Can you let him go?"

"Play it tomorrow." Zong Ming pointed to Rommel, "otherwise it will be unhappy. When unhappy, it will speak Mandarin."

Levi's suddenly realized that Rommel normally called "Mi", but if he called "Meow" like a normal cat, it meant he was very unhappy.

This little thing is really interesting.

Put the squirrel into a cardboard box and put it on the windowsill. Levi washed his hands and wrapped up the remaining flat food.Zong Ming took two big big bowls, spread shredded egg skin, kelp and day lily on the bottom of the bowls, sprinkled fungus, mustard and dried shrimps, poured the boiled mushroom soup on top, and ordered two With a drop of sesame oil, the rich and rich aroma immediately permeated the restaurant.

Warm and delicious food is always the greatest comfort to foodies, Levi's involuntarily stretched his brows, and took a deep sniff of the fresh and sweet aroma.

Zong Ming turned off the fire, picked up the cooked flat food and put it into the soup, pushed it in front of him, rubbed his hair, and said, "Eat it."

Levi's only felt a numb feeling from his back all the way up to Tianling Gai, he shook unconsciously, the tips of his ears turned red inexplicably, he scratched his head covertly, and said, "Thank you."

This feeling... how familiar... Levi's was a little distracted. As a child who had never had a father since he was a child, this kind of masculine, teasing, and pampering actions seemed to have never been done to him, but when Zong Ming's hand brushed the top of his hair, and he had a particularly subtle and familiar feeling.

strangeness.

Maybe it was because he was really hungry, or maybe Zong Ming's craftsmanship was so good, Levi's appetite suddenly increased, and he ate a whole bowl of flat food, still feeling a little unsatisfied.

Zong Ming looked at his foodie's eager eyes, swallowed the last flat food in his bowl, and said, "I want to eat it next time, but it's too late, and it's not appropriate to eat too much."

Levi said embarrassedly: "Let me wash the dishes, you rest for a while."

Zong Ming was not polite, pushed the bowl away, and lit a cigarette across the dining chair.Rommel was leaning on his lap like a concubine, smelling the smell of tobacco in the air, and immediately uttered a dissatisfied "Mandarin" - "meow" - jumped out of the window and disappeared.

Levi put the dishes into the dishwasher, stood by the sink to clean the enamel pot, and suddenly realized that tonight's meal was completely vegetarian, with no trace of meat, no wonder he could eat such a big bowl—just now When he saw blood, he could spit it out on the spot if there was even a little bit of meat.

Zong Ming is really a very considerate "fiancé".

"Is it better?" Zong Ming finished smoking a cigarette, his voice was a little rusty, but warm and peaceful.

Levi's heart warmed, and he nodded.Zong Ming sighed, and said, "Blame me, I shouldn't have brought you into the scene today and let you see that kind of scene."

Maybe he just had a full meal, and his nerves became stronger because of the sufficient energy. Levi was able to calmly recall the scene at that time, shook his head, put the enamel pot in the drain basket, and sat opposite Zong Ming: "In case of emergencies, No one thought that he would suddenly snatch the gun." Thinking of the scene before Wang Hao snatched the gun, he asked suspiciously, "What happened at that time? It wasn't my illusion, right? Time and space suddenly stopped, and everyone's consciousness froze Being pulled away for a few seconds, that's why he was able to snatch the gun from Bai Xiaolei."

Zong Ming was silent, and Levi asked, "Did you do it? When you came back that day, it seemed that the same thing happened. You just stopped time like that and threw Wang Jian out... So today you deliberately created an opportunity to let Wang Jian go. Wang Hao killed that lunatic?"

"No." Zong Ming denied, "First of all, today was indeed an accident. I didn't expect him to do that. Secondly, the stagnation of time and space was not caused by me, but by Wang Hao. Only the maker is not affected by the stagnation. "

Freeze in time and space?Li Weisi looked at Zong Ming in shock when he heard this fantasy word at first glance: "All of this is true? Time and space stagnation, supernatural cases, enchantment..."

Zong Ming Fu forehead: "There is no enchantment, the nightmare you feel should be the space particle fluctuation caused by the operation of supernatural force, which affects the electrical vibration of your brain."

"..." Levi was confused by these unfathomable scientific terms, "I don't read much, so don't lie to me..."

"Listen." Zong Ming looked at him seriously, and said, "I belong to the Supernatural Case Investigation Division of the Criminal Investigation Bureau, and I am responsible for the investigation of abnormal criminal cases across the country, so what you have experienced in the past two days cannot be explained scientifically. The phenomenon is normal, understand?"

Levi's digested it with difficulty, and translated his words into "I'm not normal, so it's normal for you to encounter abnormal things when you follow me."

Is it still too late to withdraw the marriage application?

"You'll get used to it gradually." Zong Ming said sympathetically, "After all, we've been married and divorced for several months, so you might want to open some."

"Wait, wait!" Levi's suddenly felt blessed, and blurted out, "Why did you agree to a fake marriage with me? You are a law enforcement officer, how could you treat this kind of thing so hastily? Is it just because of Sister Jiayu's request?"

Zong Ming looked at him without saying a word. Suddenly, he showed a rich smile, took down the message post from the refrigerator, and wrote a line at the bottom.

"Perrey. Reeves." Reeves read the words silently, "Ming. Zong."

Two very different signatures, the first being Levi's name, which is very similar to his own handwriting.The second is obviously Zong Ming's English name, which is the same as his previous handwriting, scribbled and steep.

Levi felt that his heart was beating a little faster for no reason. Looking at Zong Ming's face, his consciousness was in a strange trance: "I...have I seen you somewhere?"

Zong Ming snapped his fingers, stood up, rubbed his head again, and said, "It's too late, take a bath and have a good sleep."
