lion hunting

Chapter 17 [Drunk]

The person who came was Meng Qi, who was the person from the criminal police brigade that he met at the scene of the death last time. At this time, Meng Qi had already sat next to Rui An, and poured the wine on his own, "It just so happened that I came here to do something. Something, I heard that you have a dinner party and bring people over to join in the fun, don't you mind?"

"It's not me who pays, so I don't have the right to speak." Hearing the so-called explanation from the man, Rui An said helplessly.But he is not stupid, he can still judge such a lame excuse, so he directly changed the subject: "When did you get promoted?"

"It's been two and a half years."

Rui An nodded, thinking that he and Meng Qide hadn't seen each other for a few years, probably since he came to the patrol brigade.

"That case is closed."

For so many years, they only had contact with each other because of the case a few days ago. Of course, Rui An knew what Meng Qi meant. He only thought that the criminal police brigade's detection ability was still so fast, so he didn't answer.

"Do you think it was suicide or homicide?"

Rui An smiled: "Isn't the case closed? What's there to guess?"

"Guess." Meng Qi raised his glass and touched Rui An.

Rui An took a sip of beer, and it took him a long time to respond, "It's neither."

Meng Qi raised his eyebrows with interest, "Oh? How should I say it?"

"Probably because, even if a man is laid off, he still wants to find a job right away. How can such an active person commit suicide?" Rui An said, thinking of the documents the man put on the table in his mind.

"It's also possible that he killed him?"

"impossible."

"..." The deep eyes were slightly shocked, as if they were waiting for Rui An's explanation.

And Rui An just scratched his hair and said with a smile: "It's just my intuition."

Meng Qi also laughed a few times, and then said: "Your intuition is very accurate. We found the case file of 'request for change of custody' in the deceased's belongings, but the result was not satisfactory. The deceased drank a lot of alcohol because of mental depression, which also caused complications of diabetes and heart disease, so he died unexpectedly."

Rui An nodded, and responded in a low voice: "Sure enough..."

"How do you feel?"

"...There is no special feeling, after all, I have been in this business for many years."

The man sighed, put his hands on the table and said: "When we notified the family, his ex-wife who had remarried was crying very sadly."

Rui An lowered his head and paused his hands fiddling with chopsticks, "After all, I liked it once, so I'm sure I'll be sad."

"But she still transferred all the man's property to her daughter's name with peace of mind."

"Do the deceased's parents agree?"

"Why don't you agree? After all, that child is also their granddaughter."

"..." Rui An took a sip of his wine sullenly, feeling a little uncomfortable, he knew that people are so realistic.

Meng Qi chuckled, staring at the person who never met his eyes, and opened his lips: "Do you think his ex-wife is hypocritical and heartless?"

Rui An still didn't speak, it was acquiescence.

"I don't think so."

Raising his gaze suddenly, Rui An looked at the person who said such words in a daze. Yes, in his memory, Meng Qi was such an almost ruthless existence. No, in this industry, it should be said that he He is impartial and upright.

But Rui An just hates this kind of man who can't see any blood, or rather, he is afraid.

Finally meeting his gaze, the man did not miss the change in Rui An's eyes, he said: "Because that woman knows how to face the next reality after being sad, and she wants to fight for better things for the important people in her future life .”

A trace of unhappiness crawled into the corner of her eyes, and Rui An asked back: "Didn't she remarry? Wouldn't her conscience be condemned?"

"maybe."

"..."

"People, sometimes they can't think about small things, they don't let themselves move forward, and they don't give others a chance, so in the end, the one who regrets what they lose is themselves, and that woman is very smart." The man took a sip of wine, Staring at Rui An with dark eyes, he said in a low voice, "Do you think so, Rui An."

"The person who cared died just like that. Is this a trivial matter?"

Rui An's voice was so loud that he even stood up. His sudden movement startled the other two people at the table, and they all looked at him.

Meng Qi raised his hand to indicate that the two people were fine, but his eyes kept looking back at the already angry person, without any wavering or evasion.

The man's unique calmness made Rui An even more irritable, but he was no longer a child, he could neither point at the man's nose and scold him for being cold-blooded, nor leave angrily, he could only sit down again with a frown and pour wine into his stomach .

In fact, if simply discussing personal opinions on the case does not make Rui An angry, everyone will definitely have differences in what they think.

And his anger is because he knows the man's implication, the implication.

"An angry look doesn't suit you at all."

Facing the man's nonchalant continuation of the topic, Rui An could only suppress his temper, otherwise it would appear that he was too petty, but he didn't have a good face, no subordinate should have an attitude towards his boss, and he muttered while putting food in his mouth : "It's a fool to laugh every day."

Looking at Rui Ansai's bulging cheeks, the man chuckled a few times, lit a cigarette casually, and asked, "How have you been these few years?"

"Excellent."

Meng Qi nodded, looked at Rui An's fingers holding the chopsticks, and asked, "Have you found a suitable person?"

"Who can be suitable for someone like me?" Rui An twitched the corners of his mouth, his eyes turned from mocking to dim, "Even if there was one, it would have been gone long ago."

"... Rui An."

"Okay! It's almost time for me to eat and drink, I have to go back to sleep, and I will be on duty tomorrow." Rui An found the opportunity, stood up and said to Meng Qi, "I won't accompany you, you drink Alright, Team Meng."

"Ryan."

The hand was grabbed suddenly, and Rui An's already moving steps stopped, and then he heard the man say that.

"You have to understand that the more you care about something, the more it will torture you, until you are physically and mentally exhausted, life is worse than death, and it is better..."

Shaking off her warm hand, Rui An interrupted Meng Qi again, squinted at the man, and said, "I don't want to be lectured by someone who doesn't understand anything."

"No, on the contrary, it is precisely because I understand this feeling that I can speak."

"Really." Leaving two words of complete doubt, Rui An didn't stay any longer, found Lao Xu in the crowd, said hello and went back.

The men on the second floor are still in the mood, and no one will notice Rui An's departure, only Meng Qi who is sitting on the chair at this time, he leans back on the chair, sucks the remaining cigarettes, and picks up a full bottle of cigarettes. A glass of beer poured down his throat, even though the beer was so bitter, he didn't frown, just stared at the figure that disappeared around the corner, silent for a long time.

The wind was very strong, and Rui An was blown in a mess, and his steps became more and more wobbly, until he walked a few hundred meters, he finally couldn't help the churning in his stomach, found a trash can, and vomited wildly stand up.

Fortunately, he was wearing casual clothes today, otherwise, wouldn't a policeman be criticized for throwing up a mess because he was drunk on the side of the road in the middle of the night?

Those who were still thinking about this spit out the last bitter residue, and sat down on the bench under the street lamp. He unzipped his coat and looked at the sky covered in smog, his vision becoming more and more blurred.

No matter how many years have passed, Meng Qi is still the same Meng Qi, with a short cut and a tall body with the awe-inspiring integrity that a criminal policeman should have. The only thing that has changed is probably the two extra fine lines at the corners of the man's eyes. Think about it, Meng Qi seems to be 34 years old, right?How can you speak so sharply and make people irritated?

"What..."

Ruan scratched her hair, and shook off the annoying man in her mind.

Once he regained consciousness, the bitterness in his mouth became clearer, and when he finally got up and tried to take two steps, he found that his feet were still weak. In desperation, Rui An slumped on the bench again, regretting how he followed the angry child Drink that much?It's obviously not the age to drink beer like water.

Now the head is getting bigger, people who usually walk to work basically don't carry money, and they can't take a taxi.Rui An took out his mobile phone and checked the time. It was already 11:[-]. After thinking for a long time, he was really embarrassed to call and ask Miao Zheng to send him money. With Miao Zheng's personality, he would probably get drunk all over the place. Maybe Xuanyang, thinking of being laughed at behind his back every day, he would rather crawl back.

Said that crawling back is serious, Rui An is not stupid, but after looking through the phone twice, he couldn't find anyone who is close enough to give him money in a hurry. Just when he was about to give up, Rui An's eyes stopped on Da Huang's on the phone number.

Speaking of Dahuang's mobile phone, I bought it a few days ago, probably because Rui An mentioned that the working hours of the two of them were a bit messy, so they couldn't coordinate their meals, which was inconvenient.Unexpectedly, Rhubarb bought a mobile phone the next day.

Staring at the number that he had never dialed before, Rui An was in a daze for a long time, and finally, somehow, he really pressed it.

"Say."

Rhubarb's unique voice came from the phone, and Rui An was shocked, and put the phone to his ear in a daze, "Shouldn't the first sentence when answering the phone be 'Hello'?"

"..." There was a moment of silence over there, and then he asked, "What's the matter."

"Oh, I understand that you don't care, but if someone calls you, isn't your attitude bad?" The person who starts chattering after drinking has no idea how annoying he is now, and thinks he is very annoying earnestly.

"You're the only one on my phone."

"..." Rui An was stunned for a moment. He knew that Da Huang's words had no deep meaning, but there was an inexplicable sense of superiority quietly.

"Where are you?" The man asked probably because he heard the car's horn.

"On the road." Rui An sighed, "It's so noisy over there, can't you find a quiet place?"

"There is no quiet place." The man echoed casually, and then asked, "Is the dinner party over?"

"Yes."

"So, what's the matter with you calling me?"

Almost forgot the subject, Rui An leaned his head on the bench, and said a little depressed: "How far are you from my team, I'm at the door of the coffee shop in front of the team, can you come out and give me some money?"

"money?"

"Ah, it's a long story. Anyway, my head is about to explode right now, and I can't walk anymore. If you have time to help me, I'd like to wait until I'm frozen to death." Rui An was still in the mood to joke.

There was a moment of silence on the phone, and then Rui An heard Da Huang say 'Got it', and the phone was hung up before he could say anything else.

"Hey, hey! You know now, whether you are coming or not..." Rui An stared at the phone and muttered, and then lay down on the bench because his head hurt too much. He covered the streetlights with his arms and kept Waking up for a while, waiting for the body to recover on its own, thinking in his heart, don't fall asleep, otherwise he will be the one who will be autopsyed tomorrow.
