monologue

Jennifer hung up Wen Ti's phone, turned to look at Xue Ning who was putting on a mask, and said, "Sister Xue, the boss asked you to write a [-]-word self-criticism for him, and you will be paid two yuan and five."

Xue Ning took off the mask and asked her: "Are you selling the house and paying the difference to the middleman? I heard it was five yuan."

Jennifer hurriedly got up from the sofa to turn on the computer, "For the year-end award, write!"

"Handwritten or electronic? How about we write an electronic version and let them copy it!"

Xue Ning poked Jennifer with her hand: "Use your brain, and he will finish writing by himself if you have the time to copy."

We all knew that Wen Ti was joking, but Jennifer and Xue Ning still worked hard to help him write. Xue Ning lay next to Jennifer and asked, "What review?"

"Captain Chu was complained by that unscrupulous doctor, saying that he enforced the law violently. As for the things he did that were condemned by God, Captain Chu didn't beat him to death and he still complained." Jennifer was indignant on behalf of Chu Xingmu.

As one of the witnesses, Jennifer also briefly described how Chu Xingmu taught Lin Shen that night in the basement, and commented: "Captain Chu made a decisive decision at a critical moment. Ti went to take revenge, but fortunately he went, otherwise we might all have to spend the New Year in the detention center."

"Aren't you just meeting that person?" Xue Ning asked her belatedly.

"Wen Xiangqin was also on the scene. It didn't take long for the criminal investigation team to arrive. I also wonder if Wen Ti and Captain Chu planned to lure Lin Shen into the net and then deploy people to arrest him. If not... Jennifer grabbed a handful of her hair, "Captain Chu may have rescued us unintentionally, that Lin Shen brought his thugs."

Xue Ning was thoughtful, the case had already come to light, and Jennifer didn't want to worry about it anymore. If it was really dangerous, Wen Ti would not let Jennifer go with him, and he would most likely go to the appointment alone.

Wen Ti sat in the office and sent them all the materials and papers to be given to the laboratory and Professor Jiang. There were as many documents on the desk as those files that Chu Xingmu had processed the night before. Wen Ti had something casually at noon. , In the middle, he asked the secretary to deliver coffee to him twice. The last time he stayed in the company for a whole day was at the end of last year.

Wen Ti's hand flipping through the document stopped and looked at the phone. Wen Ti suddenly felt that she was not the same as before. She originally wanted to be a mentally ill rich second generation and tried her best to "do bad things". Chu Xingmu, followed by another half-year temporary job. He has been free and easy for 20 years. Eight months ago, he did not expect that he would have ties in this life. Even his ideas and thoughts were corrected by Chu Xingmu.

Chu Xingmu fell from the roof of the building because of a bet he had with the suspect, and because of Wen Xiangqin's misunderstanding of him and Wen Xiangqin's falling out, he rescued him when Wu Chuan attacked him, and now he finds Lin Xiangqin for him. Gentleman's revenge, I don't know how much effort he took to cover Wen Ti's reckless poke every time, and he never blamed him afterwards, and the most serious thing this time was just locking him in the car with handcuffs, Even though he was so busy, he stayed by his side all night.

Even the wrist watch in his hand was a joke he said casually, but Chu Xingmu took it seriously, and planned to buy a new house in Huaxiyuan, just so that Wen Ti could get closer to the studio.

Wen Ti looked at the rare winter sunshine outside the glass wall, took a picture of his shadow and sent it to Chu Xingmu.

He said: The sun is shining on me.

Just a few seconds after the message was sent, the other party came back.

Chu Xingmu said: Concentrate on work and wear more clothes when you come over at night.

Wen Ti buckled the phone on the table, um, still so puzzled.

Chu Xingmu, who was secretly looking at his mobile phone in the meeting room, was caught by Chen Yuyao and Xia Ci. They: "When do you have time, Qin Wan wants to invite us to dinner, and we will go to see Xu Chi together if we have a chance."

Chu Xingmu straightened the hat on his head and said, "I'll go on Saturday and visit my master by the way."

Chen Yuyao was a little dazed when he heard Chu Xingmu call Zhou Jinlin "Master", and in the end he just patted him on the shoulder. The word "Zhou Jinlin" is still a sensitive word in the Public Security Bureau, so Chen Yuyao couldn't speak casually.

On the way back to the office, Xia Ci asked Chu Xingmu: "Do you dare to call Master now?"

"Director Li gave me Zhou Jinlin's file. Zhao Hailu has already pleaded guilty. Doesn't this clearly support me to continue investigating the case?"

Xia Ci muttered: "What is obvious, if you don't threaten him, can he give it to you?"

"Since the dossier is on our own territory, isn't it just waiting for an opportunity when we check it? I heard from Uncle Yang that Ju Li had been to their house a few days ago. In terms of persistence, I can't compare to Uncle Yang." Chu Xingmu Smiling, Xia Ci couldn't figure out what he was planning now.

Before entering the office, Chu Xingmu heard the chatter inside discussing what to eat for dinner. When everyone saw Chu Xingmu and Xia Ci coming back, Qi Shaocheng led the way to Chu Xingmu and asked him, "Boss, I heard that you Do you want a treat tonight?"

Chu Xingmu turned his head to look at him: "Where did you hear that?"

Tang Zhe raised his hands and said happily, "Wen Ti said it."

Chu Xingmu originally wanted to announce it as good news, but Wen Ti unexpectedly revealed it to him in advance. Chu Xingmu wrote a note for Wen Ti in his small notebook.

Xia Ci also looked at Chu Xingmu and said, "Today is Friday, and tomorrow and the day after tomorrow happen to be on holiday, what's the matter?"

Chu Xingmu looked at all of them eagerly, cleared his throat and said, "Long Jingxuan, I am treating you tonight."

Lang Lang asked, "Is the public expense reimbursed?"

Chu Xingmu happily said, "Reimbursement at your own expense."

Qi Shaocheng asked: "Can I bring my family?"

Every time the criminal investigation team has a dinner, Qi Shaocheng will bring his sister Qi Han, because only when they have a dinner, Qi Shaocheng can take Qi Han out, so that he can take care of Qi Han, in order not to cause trouble for others, Qi Han is always there At home, she herself was also afraid that one day she would get sick outside and bring accidents and dangers to outsiders and family members.

Chu Xingmu said: "Only one person."

I have never seen Chu Xingmu spend money so freely, Zhao Chen jumped on the spot, "Boss is mighty, I have been greedy for Longjingxuan's bird's nest for several months, will I be reimbursed?"

Bai Yao put down her work and asked Zhao Chen in surprise, "It's been a few months and you still miss that cup of bird's nest?"

Qi Shaocheng patted him on the shoulder: "Comrade Zhao, at the end of the year, it's okay if you are lazy in your ideological consciousness, and your life style is starting to be extravagant."

Zhao Chen: "Why is it extravagant for me to eat Longjingxuan's bird's nest? Can't I pay for it?"

Bai Yao grabbed Lang Lang's hand and said, "Brother Zhao treats guests to eat bird's nest, Sister Lang and I will order two first!"

Zhao Chen clutched his chest and almost had a heart attack: "Isn't it the boss' treat? What kind of guest did I invite?"

Chu Xingmu was in a good mood and decided to leave work early. Others were still discussing how to squeeze Chu Xingmu's wallet at night. Chu Xingmu took the bag and left. Xia Ci chased him and asked him: "You haven't handed in the materials yet." Where are you going?"

Chu Xingmu ran too fast and Xia Ci didn't catch up with him, "I'll leave it to you, I have something to go home, see you at Long Jingxuan tonight."

Xia Ci said with a sullen face, "I fucking knew this guest would not be in vain."

Seeing that other people were still so engrossed in the good opportunity to feast on their food in the evening that they even let go of the work at hand, Xia Ci hurriedly urged them: "Hurry up and work, don't you want to get off work on time for dinner at night?"

A day that was not long passed by like this, and the neon lights on the tall buildings outside also lit up in a fog. Wen Ti was finally freed from a pile of work, and after a glance at the time, it was past six o'clock. Wen Ti called The secretary took care of the rest of the work and planned to go directly to Longjingxuan.

The driver was already waiting downstairs. Before Wen Ti walked out of the office, Wen Xiangqin, who had always been invisible in the company, suddenly came in from outside.

Wen Ti hurried away with her coat in her hand, and hurriedly asked, "What do you want from me?"

Wen asked Qin, "Where are you going? I'll see you off."

Wen Ti didn't react for a while, and said in surprise: "It's just a meal, I don't dare to bother the chairman, the driver has already come."

Wen Xiangqin found himself bored, stepped aside to open the door, Wen Ti walked out of the office, Wen Xiangqin said something behind him: "Be careful on the road."

"I won't be killed."

Wen Xiangqin: "..."

Wen Ti didn't look back, her words were still the same as before, but it became bitter and mean when it fell into Wen Xiangqin's ears. Wen Xiangqin stood at the door for a while, and Wen Ti's secretary came back to get the documents and saw Wen Xiang Qin was in Wen Ti's office, and Wen Xiang Qin said to the secretary, "Give him the key to the office."

Wen Xiangqin used to be hostile to Wen Ti, and all of that was based on the fact that Wen Ti's mother was a "little girl" who destroyed other people's families. His mother knew his father Wen Chonghe earlier than his mother. Although neither of them knew about the entanglement between their parents, the grievances of the previous generation fell on the two of them so naturally.

Wen Xiangqin, like Wen Ti, wanted to run far away, especially when Wen Xiangqin learned that his mother would not threaten his position in the Wen Group because of Wen Ti, so he thought for a long time when Wen Ti was four years old. He was sent to a mental hospital, completely cutting off the possibility of Wen Ti's inheritance.

Wen Ti did not do anything sorry to him and the Wen family. After all these years in the Wen family, only Wen Ruo really treated Wen Ti as a younger brother. The conflicts between Wen Xiangqin and Wen Ti were too deep-rooted. Qin wanted to make up for it, but Wen Ti might not appreciate it, but would think that Wen Xiangqin's sudden reconciliation with him was another idea.

Around seven o'clock, Xia Ci and Lang Lang rushed to Longjingxuan together. Chu Xingmu asked the waiter to take them to the private room. He had been standing outside the Longjingxuan restaurant waiting for Wen Ti, and went home to change his clothes. Kong Dang also brought a coat for Wen Ti, the driver sent Wen Ti to the place and left, Chu Xingmu saw Wen Ti waving at him from a distance, the vertical shadow slowly approached him, Wen Ti ran a few steps .

"I should have arrived early, but Wen Xiangqin suddenly asked me to talk, which delayed me for a few minutes." Wen Ti walked up to Chu Xingmu and stamped the mud on his shoes.

"Didn't you say that your brain is very precious? You had a high fever twice and didn't even wear thick clothes." Chu Xingmu put on Wen Ti's coat.

Wen Ti held Chu Xingmu's hand at once, then let go and said, "External factors have a greater influence, such as when you drove and I hit my head."

"You drive like a gambler. You might lose your life one day if you lose the bet."

Wen Ti put on her coat and straightened her hair and clothes in the glass reflection at the entrance of the hotel, "It doesn't seem very cold today, how long have you been waiting outside?"

Chu Xingmu took Wen Ti and walked in, "Ten minutes, it looks like it's going to snow soon."

The sun is still bright during the day, and it will snow at night. The weather is as changeable as people's moods, but people are happy when it snows.

Wen Ti and Chu Xingmu walked through the lobby to the private room upstairs. It happened to be serving time. When everyone was seated, Zhao Chen rolled up his sleeves and said, "Wen Ti is late for the last dinner party this year. I will punish myself three times for being late." cup, red or white is optional."

Wen Ti looked at Chu Xingmu while eager to try, as if asking for his opinion, Chu Xingmu didn't stop him this time, didn't even say a word, Wen Ti was like a primary school student who can finally watch TV after finishing his homework , was banned by Chu Xingmu for such a long time, finally able to drink a few sips this time.

Wen Ti poured the wine herself and asked, "Can I punish you with two drinks? I'll ask the captain to drink the third glass."

Chu Xingmu couldn't wish for it, thinking that Wen Ti had listened to his words a little bit.

Tang Zhe suddenly remembered that Wen Ti's suspension period was coming soon, so he said, "Is Wen Ti leaving after the new year?"

After Tang Zhe reminded everyone, everyone remembered that Wen Ti was about to leave the criminal investigation team after the new year. Qi Shaocheng sighed: "I forgot that Wen Ti still has a tenure. He just came to our team." At that time, I agreed with the boss that he was a rich second-generation son who came to experience life, and he was going to see your jokes."

Chu Xingmu denied: "Who agrees with you that our relationship is a matter of course."

Zhao Chen went on to talk about his impressions when he first met Wen Ti: "When he came out from behind Director Li, I thought it was over. I, Qianmian Yulang, and the most handsome police officer Zhao in the criminal investigation team, would lose my position as a police officer! "

Qi Shaocheng said: "You know the smelly fart."

Tang Zhe also said: "When I first met Wen Ti, the captain asked me to keep an eye on Wen Ti. I also thought that Wen Ti didn't look like a suspect who would commit crimes. Later, I found out that he was two years younger than me. .”

Bai Yao also said: "When I was still buying magazines in high school, I never expected to see me in person four years later."

Lang Lang said from the perspective of the majority of female compatriots: "It means that Wen Ti doesn't regard Yaoer and I as men, and usually considers our taste when ordering food. It's bird's nest and ginseng soup. It's not like you old masters." You guys don't understand us at all, Miss Lang and Xiaobai have nothing to do with Lang Lang Baiyao, if Wen Ti leaves, we won't even have anyone to chat with."

"Isn't there still Zhao Chen? He is known as a friend of women, but he still can't talk to you?"

"Why did the dinner party suddenly become Wen Ti's farewell party? Didn't he have to stay for half a month after the new year?" Xia Ci poured a glass of white wine and said, "Let's have a drink first, everyone has worked hard this year. "

Wen Ti smiled and said: "I also want to thank everyone for your care and cooperation in the past six months. The cooperation between the research laboratory and the criminal investigation team has been very smooth. Dr. Zhong is not here, so I would like to offer you a toast for him."

Chu Xingmu waited for him to finish speaking, raised his glass and said: "This year's work is not in vain, and the rate of solving cases has steadily increased. Since most of the cases solved this year are major and important cases, in order to encourage everyone to strive for the top next year, I have already made a report to the superiors. I will give you a raise next year!"

"Okay, boss, do something big in silence! It's a salary increase and Longjingxuan's dinner, I thought you were going to be transferred to arrange work for us." Lang Lang joked.

"But this year is also the most depressing year for me. Look at the cases we solved. The schizophrenic collector is good at collecting people. The taxi driver killed the sanitation worker and raped the female passenger. Finally, he was dismembered and well-dressed. The animal professor molested a student to commit suicide, the victim of domestic violence killed his own father, and the one that made me most angry, those girls who were buried under the sweet-scented osmanthus tree."

Tang Zhe took out his internship report and asked Chu Xingmu to sign and seal it before the holiday. He would return it to the school later. Qi Shaocheng looked through Tang Zhe's internship report. His internship report was written in the same way as the documentary Like a diary, after reading it, Qi Shaocheng patted Tang Zhe on the shoulder and said, "It's not easy for Xiao Tang. He joined our team as soon as he left school. This year, you have encountered some weird cases. Your performance is outstanding." It is obvious to all, and we will work hard in the future.”

Bai Yao asked all the seniors with a mournful face: "I'm also a newcomer, no one praises me?"

Zhao Chen said with a smile: "Sister Lang is now committed to bringing you into the next her. Follow Sister Lang and learn from her. Let's toast Xiaobai and Xiaotang again. They performed well this year, and make persistent efforts next year!"

Xia Ci expressed his feelings: "I have been in the police force for so many years, and every year I am still refreshed by some cases. Human wisdom is infinite, and bad roots also exist. Fortunately, there is such a layer of moral bottom line and human relationship. Restraint, so that there will be no vicious people everywhere, and every time they go deep into the reasons behind their crimes, it is hateful and pathetic."

"These cases cannot rely on the law for everything. Where the law cannot reach, conflicts are inevitable."

Rape cases cannot be avoided by wearing more clothes; domestic violence cases cannot be reduced by the abused obedient to the perpetrator; If the person is still a child, stop.

"Like those campus violence incidents, we found one case and solved one case, and there will be another case. There are only so few people in the police force, and most of them deal with cases that are more harmful to society. The cultivation and education of those children is very important. Starting from the original family and school education, if there is a problem in any link, it is impossible to guarantee that more dangerous social cases will not occur in the future."

Chu Xingmu and Wen Ti have been listening to other people talking, or summing up the gains of the past year, or their expectations and insights for the coming year. Like ordinary professional workers, they occasionally make a few jokes and talk about themselves. The embarrassing things in the past, chatting to the happy place, clinking glasses, the sound of wine glasses colliding together, the splash of wine dripping on the exquisite dishes, and the laughter on the table, the atmosphere is like a family for many years, no one is excluded, just Even Wen Ti, who jumped in the queue halfway, got along very happily with them.

When Tang Zhe was taking a tissue on the window sill of the private room, he found that it seemed to be snowing outside, and he shouted: "It's snowing outside."

Everyone scrambled to lie on the window to watch the snow. This was the first snow since the winter in Qingshi, and they were all in a good mood that day.
