"Ah Qing, I have decided to go to the Criminal Police Academy." Yu Sheng lay on the table and said to Nie Qing who was beside him with a volunteer form.

Nie Qing reached out and rubbed his somewhat fluffy hair, looked down at his volunteer form, and took out the transparent tape from his schoolbag, "Then I will go too."

"Don't!" Yu Sheng sat up straight and pressed his hand, and said with serious eyes, "Didn't you always want to go to the Public Security University? Don't change your wish just because of me."

"But if I go to the Public Security University and you go to the Criminal Police Academy, don't we have to be separated for four years? Beijing and Shenyang are not close..." Nie Qing curled up her fingers and held them tightly, with a very serious expression, "Ah Students, in fact, you can also try to apply for the Public Security University, but the results have not yet come out, how can you be sure that you will not be admitted?"

Yu Sheng laughed when he heard his words, "Which exam have you ever seen me fail in the assessment since you were young? Going to the Public Security University, I’m afraid it’s not up to me to decide what to study.”

"Actually, the Criminal Police Academy and the Public Security University should be on the same level in terms of teaching. It's just that the Public Security University's brand is brighter and the admission line is higher, but the things they learn must be the same. Otherwise, I will still report to the Criminal Police just like you. Let's go to college, so we don't have to separate." Nie Qing seemed to make up his mind as he spoke, and the transparent glue was about to glue off the "People's Public Security University of China" in the column of the first choice.

"Don't make trouble!" Yu Sheng quickly took the volunteer form from under his hand, held it in his arms and stared at him and said, "Ah Qing, filling out the volunteer form is a major event in life, so don't be emotional. We have been together since we were young and went to college. Even if we are temporarily separated for four years, it is not necessarily a bad thing, anyway, we will be together in the future."

"Ah Sheng..." Nie Qing looked at him hesitantly, obviously reluctant.

"Besides, communication and transportation are so convenient now. We can use voice and video. What's more, I will take the train to see you on November and May Day, and we will see you again when we go home during the winter and summer vacations?" Yu Sheng Persuading Nie Qing, because he didn't dare to be too blatant in the classroom, he carefully held Nie Qing's hand under the table and shook it gently.

"Asheng, are you really thinking about it?" Nie Qing took Yu Sheng's hand behind his back, pressed it on his knee, paused for a few seconds, and said: "The police academy is very strict, and there are restrictions on the time to leave the school during holidays. , The use of mobile phones and computers will not be very frequent, and we may not be able to contact each other for a long time."

"How long can it last? It's only half a year if you die." Yu Sheng secretly moved his hand into his thigh, and laughed in a low voice: "Or, you can't bear it for half a year?"

"Fart." Nie Qing knocked off his hand, and couldn't help laughing, "I'm worried about you. There are too many wolves in the police academy, and the men are like animals. They are like wolves and tigers. You go Be careful."

Yu Sheng was overjoyed when he heard it, and quickly touched Nie Qing's chin while the students around him weren't paying attention, narrowed his eyes and smiled badly: "Don't worry, Ah Qing, what you want can't be taken away by others."

"Oh? You know what I want?" Nie Qing moved closer to him, pretending to be whispering, but deliberately sprayed the hot air from his mouth into Yu Sheng's ear, and then he saw that ear was moving at a speed visible to the naked eye. It's getting red soon.

Nie Qing couldn't help snickering in her heart, his partner is good at talking, in fact, he is as innocent as a little girl in that respect, the two of them have only "helped each other" with their hands so far, and they haven't developed to the last step at all.

But this is not the case, because both of them are day students, and they both live in Nie Qing's house.Although Nie Qing's parents respected their privacy very much and usually would not interfere with them, Yu Sheng was still embarrassed to do that kind of thing with Nie Qing at home, he felt ashamed and panicked.

And those who push and reject like this will delay until they graduate from high school.

"Ah Sheng, if we really decide to go to a different school, shouldn't we do what we need to do before the start of school?" Nie Qing suddenly turned against the guest, and put his hand on Yu Sheng's thigh all the way to the root. The thin and slippery touch of the school uniform flowed under his palm, which was cool and comfortable.

And Yu Sheng's breathing was messed up, and his skin under the school uniform became hot. He blushed and lay down on the table, with his nose buried in his arms, only a pair of eyes staring at Nie Qing depressingly, "You like this?" It will definitely be a disaster for someone who wants to become a policeman in the future!"

"What about you? Are you not?" Nie leaned in again, feeling that there was already a reaction there, and Yu Sheng buried his whole head in it instantly, his back trembling and gasping for breath.

"Pristine, dressed like a beast..." After a while, Yu Sheng raised his head and said, still staring at Nie Qing with a red face.Then he took a deep breath, let it out slowly, and added: "I will definitely be a good policeman in the future."

"Really?" Nie Qing looked at him and smiled softly, "Then I'll wait and see."

I'll be with you and be a good cop.

……

***

Sitting in the car, Nie Qing inexplicably recalled what happened when he and Yu Sheng filled out the application for the college entrance examination together.

Thinking of what I had sworn to say at that time, now I only feel that the world is impermanent.

If he could predict what would happen in advance, Nie Qing thought, he would have applied for the same university as Yu Sheng no matter what.He'd have to keep an eye on him, never let him get away from him, for any reason.

Unfortunately, people cannot predict the future.

The 43 months without hearing from each other for the rest of their lives is also a time that they will never get back.

Nie Qing's fingers couldn't help rubbing back and forth on the cigarette in his pocket.

"Is it almost there?" The man on the shoulder suddenly woke up at this moment, his head was still resting on him, his eyes were looking out of the window, and his right hand seemed to be unconsciously rubbing the red spot on his left wrist.

Nie Qing looked down at him, and after two seconds of silence, he hummed, "Wait for me a while, there is a case tonight, I have to ask about the situation."

"Oh," Yu Sheng narrowed his eyes as if he was still asleep, tied his arms and stretched, and hugged Nie Qing again, "Where can I wait for you?"

"In the car." Nie Qing said concisely.

"Which car?" Yu Sheng seemed to have nothing to say.

But Nie Qing didn't answer him. It happened that Luo Qi had just parked the car in the courtyard of the city bureau at this moment. Nie Qing dragged Yu Sheng out of the car, walked a few steps and stopped in front of a Land Rover, opened the car door and drove him back. pushed in.

Yu Sheng sighed softly, "Good car. Ah Qing, aren't you too ostentatious in the criminal police team?"

Nie Qing looked at him without saying a word, then turned around and closed the car door, took out his mobile phone and dialed Su Ji directly.

"Hello." The phone rang several times before being picked up.

"Secretary, are you in the autopsy room?" Nie Qing asked.

"Well, I'm busy, what do you want to know?" Su Ji should have turned on the hands-free, and Nie Ting heard his voice a little far away, as well as the sound of dissection instruments colliding with the dissection tray.

"Anything new?" he asked.

"The information that can be deduced so far is that the deceased was a male, aged between 33 and 36, with a height between 175 and 179 centimeters, a weight of about 75 kilograms, blood type O, relatively developed muscular tissue, and he should have been more athletic before his death." Su Ji spoke in an unhurried manner.

Nie Qing quickly wrote down what he said in the notepad that he carried, and asked, "Is the cause of death determined?"

"Basically confirmed." Su Ji paused, and continued: "The dead man's body was detected to have exceeded the standard, but according to his overall physical condition and organ conditions, he should have no history of drug abuse, and it is suspected that he was injected with an overdose intravenously. □The acute poisoning caused by the □ induced heart rhythm disorder, general convulsions and other symptoms, and finally died of respiratory failure.”

"Intravenous injection..." Nie Qing frowned, carefully looking at his notes, "Can you find the injection hole?"

"It's hard." Su Ji sighed slightly, "The corpse was burned too badly, the epidermis and dermis were damaged in a large area, and the subcutaneous tissue was also damaged. It is difficult to preserve tiny puncture wounds like injection holes, but I will Restore as much as possible."

"Okay, thank you for your hard work." Nie Qing pressed the space between his eyebrows.

But Su Ji asked him at this time: "By the way, did you find him?"

Nie Qing was taken aback for a moment, then subconsciously glanced into the car, and found that Yu Sheng was leaning on the back of the chair with his eyes closed, so he nodded and whispered, "I found it."

"Finally...congratulations." Su Ji sighed softly.

Nie Qing didn't know whether to cry or laugh, and after waiting for a while, she turned around and leaned against the car door, took a deep breath, raised her head and looked at the night sky and said, "You and brother Liang know about this... the others Seeing that I left the scene halfway, I don't think there is anything good to say, how is the captain? Are you still angry?"

"It's strange not to be angry." There was a sound of a sharp weapon rubbing against a blunt object from Su Ji's side, "but the captain is very self-restraining, and he didn't attack in public, but his face was a little dark. Also, the captain has given full authority to the case. The team is in charge, and I will hand over the autopsy report directly to Chi Xiaofei when I come back here, in principle, I can’t show it to you, and you shouldn’t know.”

"I just called you to find out about the situation, and I didn't read the autopsy report, so it's not a violation." Nie Qing smiled lightly.

Su Ji snorted lightly, and said to him: "I think Chi Xiaofei is trying his best to solve the case this time, so you'd better not intervene, so as not to cause unnecessary trouble."

"I understand, I don't want to take on this kind of unresolved case." Nie Qing smiled.

However, Su Ji exposed him unceremoniously, "Duplicity, why don't you call me so late? After searching for so long, I finally found someone. If you don't go to catch up with the past, why worry about the case?"

"...No hurry." Nie Qing was a little speechless, cleared his throat and said again: "Then you can continue to work, try to finish it early and go home to rest, don't be too tired."

"I know. You should also relax your mind. Everyone has times when they can't help themselves. If you really care about him, please be more considerate." Su Ji persuaded lightly.

"Well... hung up."

After Nie Qing finished speaking, he hung up the phone, but when he turned around, he was suddenly startled, and saw that Yu Sheng had pressed his entire face against the window glass at some point, his nose was flattened, and the The dark background in the car is very scary.

"What are you doing??" Nie Qing opened the car door, and because he was worried that he would lose his balance and fall, he reached out to block it, but Yu Sheng who just happened to fall out "accidentally" threw himself into his arms.

"Ouch!" Yu Sheng hugged Nie Qing's neck tightly, pushed him and didn't let go, and stuck to Nie Qing's ear like a dog hugging a bone and asked, "Ah Qing, who was it that called you just now?"

"Forensic doctor." Nie Qing frowned and turned his head away, "Get down quickly."

Yu Sheng turned a deaf ear to his words, and still hugged him tightly, "I'm not asking about his occupation, but about your relationship with him. You care about him very much. Are you a friend? Or a friend?"

"You are enough." Nie Qing suddenly pushed Yu Sheng onto the seat forcefully, staring at him coldly, "What does other people have to do with me, does it have anything to do with you? Who are you to me? What is your position to ask such a question? "

"Ah Qing, I will be sad if you say that." Yu Sheng rubbed his heart, showing a somewhat sad smile, then pointed to the position of the heart and said, "It hurts here."

Nie Qing paused, stared at him for a few seconds, then suddenly leaned down, and put one hand on the seat behind him, the tip of their noses almost touching.

"Do you also know what is sad and what is distressed?" Nie Qing's chest heaved violently, but his voice was kept very low.

He then grabbed Yu Sheng's hand and pressed it on his chest, and asked a little harshly, "Yu Sheng, did you ever think that my place would hurt too?!"

"Ah Qing..." The smile on Yu Sheng's face disappeared, leaving only sadness.

He looked at Nie Qing quietly for a while before saying, "I'm sorry, can you forgive me?"

Nie Qing didn't answer, but his breath gradually calmed down, and the sharp look in his eyes gradually disappeared.

After about two or three minutes, Nie Qing straightened up, closed the rear door, got into the driver's seat, and silently started the car.

"Ah Qing? Can you forgive me?" Yu Sheng leaned over and grabbed the back of his chair and asked without giving up.

Nie Qing shook his head in silence, and it took nearly 5 minutes after the car drove out of the city bureau compound before he finally spoke.

"I can't do it now."

"……I see."

The light in Yu Sheng's eyes quickly dimmed, and then he let go of Nie Qing's seat and leaned back on the back seat.

"Ah Qing, this time it really hurts..." Yu Sheng leaned his head on the car window and muttered.

Nie Qing glanced at him from the rearview mirror, but when he looked back, he saw that the corners of his eyes were a little red.

He also hurts.
