"Come home for dinner sometime."

Zhou Muyun's words made Chi Lang inexplicably want to laugh.

It's not ridicule, maybe it's sympathy, but it's more of an outsider's guilt watching the characters in the play.However, since he has already made up his mind to protect himself wisely, he will naturally not go into any troubled water at this time, and he just declined: "I'm afraid this is not very convenient."

Zhou Muyun smiled: "What's the inconvenience?" She turned her head and glanced at Shen Jianan who was queuing up in front of the counter, "We just moved here at the beginning of the year, we don't know the place well, and Jianan doesn't have many friends, so we stay at home all day , I hope that someone can move around more, and save him..." Before she finished speaking, she lowered her head and took a sip of the cold coffee, then smiled, "How did Mr. Chi and Jianan know each other?... It was a coincidence that I ran into an old friend when I first came to Jinnan."

What Chi Lang cares about is the phrase "just moved here".He originally thought that Shen Jianan was here on a business trip, but when he saw the two of them appearing together, he thought it was a tourist trip. It wasn't until Zhou Muyun mentioned that they had already settled down in Jinnan. To be honest, words spoken are like water poured out, and it is impossible to take them back.He thought about it for a while, and replied simply: "He was working in a bank at the time, and I went to do business, and I got to know him after going back and forth."

At that time, he was assisting Kang Zhenying in investigating a kidnapping and murder case, and he needed to have a thorough understanding of the suspect's assets. At that time, the person in charge of receiving him at the bank was Shen Jianan.After so many years, Shen Jianan is still in the bank, and he is still working in the public security system. Everything seems to be back to the original point, but it is a pity that the two straight lines between them are destined to only have one chance to intersect. Today's meeting is more like running Unexpected deviations occurred in the process.

Zhou Muyun said: "In the provincial capital? I remember that Jianan worked in the provincial capital for a while before."

Chi Lang said "yes".Zhou Muyun asked again with interest: "What does Mr. Chi do?"

Chi Lang smiled and said: "I usually help in the laboratory." After all, he didn't reveal his identity as a policeman.Seeing that Shen Jianan came back with a cup of hot cocoa, he put it lightly in front of Zhou Muyun, and asked him, "Why did you move to Jinnan?"

He wanted to ask Shen Jianan, but in the end it was Zhou Muyun who answered him: "The company asked me to come here in Jinnan. The opportunity is very good. I don't want to give up. The elderly in my family don't want us and my husband to live in different places, so we moved here together." She Picking up the hot cocoa, he took a sip, and complained half-truthfully, "Jia Nan didn't really want to come here at first, but he couldn't help talking at home. .”

Shen Jianan echoed: "I'm not afraid of your hard work..." But he couldn't continue speaking in front of Chi Lang.

Zhou Muyun said: "Okay, I just told Mr. Chi to let him have a meal at home when he is free, do you think it's okay?"

Shen Jianan's answer is of course "yes", he now has the urge to stay by Chi Lang's side regardless of everything, but at most he just thinks about it.He is not without guilt towards Zhou Muyun, but he is even more afraid that he will lose the reason to meet Chi Lang again after today.Chi Lang's eyes flicked across his face lightly, but the look in his eyes was like a mirror.Shen Jianan was almost staggered by his sight. Considering his wife was present, he gritted his teeth and persuaded: "It's rare to have this opportunity... why don't you come and sit at home..."

Chi Lang still declined tepidly: "I appreciate my sister-in-law's kindness, and it will take a day or two if I really want to disturb you. Besides, I'm busy with work, so it's not easy to make an appointment, so I'd better wait Let’s talk about it later when it’s convenient.”

He and Zhou Muyun have no emotional entanglements, so it seems unreasonable to refuse it at this time. Now he speaks more tactfully, probably for the sake of the face of both parties. Anyway, Shen Jianan doesn't know his contact information, so he posted this letter. The door is gone, and there is no real loss for him.At this time, the rain outside gradually lightened, and some people began to get up and prepare to leave.Zhou Muyun glanced at the mottled water marks outside the floor-to-ceiling windows, and suggested: "Jianan, let's go home after the rain stops. Where is Mr. Chi? Is the traffic on the road still convenient?"

Chi Lang said: "It's okay."

Zhou Muyun said: "That's good." He smiled blushingly and said softly, "Sorry, I want to go to the bathroom."

Shen Jianan turned sideways to let her go out.Chi Lang once again felt his almost viscous eyes, and discovered for the first time that Shen Jianan could be so obsessive.There was a contemptuous and mocking sneer at the corner of his mouth—Shen Jianan found sadly that at this moment he wanted to kiss Chi Lang's lips even more, even if he knelt at his feet and became a dog.He shook his head subconsciously, his right hand trembling, trying to block the more harsh words that might come out of that mouth: "Xiao Lang, I... I know what you want to say, please don't say it, listen to me."

He begged in a low voice: "I know that the things I did before are all my fault...you don't want to hear me again, and you don't want to see me again...I know all of this. You don't want to forgive me...no, even if you forgive me Now, I will not forgive myself... What you said before, divorce, marriage, I will definitely leave... I know, I am sorry for her, but please give me a buffer time, so suddenly divorced, at home ...I can't explain it at home." He swallowed hard, "She doesn't know anything, and I don't want her to know that I'm gay, I've delayed her for so long, don't want to break up and make her feel sick , for someone like me...it's not worth it. I think about it, the two of us have no feelings, we agree to a divorce, and she will agree after careful discussion. I can leave the house without leaving the house, and the house and money are not a problem. Xiao Lang, I beg you to give me a chance, just for the last time, even if you really come to my house for a meal, and help me settle your affairs... You don’t want her to know about our relationship, do you? Even if it’s for her own good, peace Break up, don't make it known to everyone just because of the divorce... In this way, it will also be to her in the future..."

Chi Lang listened to his chatter, and felt that the person in front of him who frequently said "I'm good for her" was really not the Shen Jianan he knew.He had just turned twenty when he met Shen Jianan, and he was always more easily moved than ordinary people at his young age.Shen Jianan is six years older than him. In Chi Lang's impression, Shen Jianan, 26, is a gentle, patient and trustworthy person.Although the coping in dealing with people cannot be said to be perfect, at least they will not have any dirty thoughts of harming others and benefiting themselves, let alone use clumsy excuses to excuse the mistakes they have made.Shen Jianan saw that Chi Lang didn't have any special reaction when he saw that he had said everything he said, so he shook his heart and continued: "Xiao Lang, there are some things you don't want to say too badly, and some things I don't want to do too much. Excessive. I... I know, for a person like you, it would be better to let you die if you are not a policeman. I heard that the case six years ago was solved, and I also know about Jinnan’s case. You came to Jinnan, didn’t you For the sake of Long Jiu, it must be for this matter. I still have photos of the two of us from before. Anyway, there are only a few public security bureaus in Jinnan. At worst, I will make trouble one by one...Xiao Lang, I beg you , I don't want to hurt you, and you too...don't force me to do such despicable and shameless things. Just treat it as I apologize to you, you...just see me one more time, I promise I won't pester you again .We didn't get together well four years ago, so you just fulfilled my wish and don't make it difficult for me, okay?"

"Mr. Shen, are you threatening me?" Chi Lang almost laughed, because he had never realized that liking Shen Jianan was such an insult to his IQ, "What do you think of me? Just like you Are you a coward? In the provincial capital, not to mention the city bureau, there are not a few people in the public security department who know that I am gay. Do you really think that I will be afraid of others knowing that the one I like has always been a man? Shen Jianan, save yourself, both sides will lose The result is that you just come out of the closet. There is nothing shameful about the relationship between the two of us, I advise you, if you want to do it, don’t make things so ugly. "

Shen Jianan said: "Xiao Lang...do you have to be so heartless?"

"Ha, I'm unfeeling?" Chi Lang laughed back angrily, for a moment he just wanted to travel back to eight years ago and grabbed his collar to warn him not to fall in love with a bastard named Shen Jianan, and said in a deep voice, "You know Brother Nine is in Jinnan, you should know who he is. Just because I am patient with you, does not mean that others are like me. Mr. Shen, I hope you take care of yourself.” After that, he stood up, and before Zhou Muyun appeared, he picked up his Something walked into the patter of rain.

Shen Jianan stared blankly at his back, and after a while, let out a hasty and low hoarse wry smile, feeling like his heart had been gouged out bloody, after all, Chi Lang still didn't know how much he loved him, this subtle and bitter feeling The state of mind prompted him to make a decision that was, for him, audacious and presumptuous.Zhou Muyun stood sideways at the door of the bathroom, and she listened to Shen Jianan's confession word for word. Her fine white teeth left a deep tooth mark on her bloodless lips.She turned her back, took off the earphone plugged in her left ear, adjusted her expression in front of the mirror, and after showing a perfect smile, she reappeared in front of Shen Jianan.

She pretended to be surprised and said, "Hey, where is Mr. Chi?"

Shen Jianan replied absent-mindedly: "He... he has something to do, so he went back first."

Zhou Muyun said: "Then let's go home too."

The husband and wife walked out of the coffee shop together, and the rain outside had stopped.

Bai Zizheng received Gu Xiaohui's call three days before the end of the training.

This training is still mainly based on theoretical exchanges and discussions. After all, even the provincial capital will not come up with a major case for them to practice.Today, Kang Zhenying arranged the training of the simulated scene. Everyone has 5 minutes of observation time. After the observation, he is required to write as much key information as possible that can be extracted from the "crime scene". feedback. The "crime scene" is a messy bedroom with simulated blood blended with red paint on the floor, giving people a very realistic feeling.Bai Zizheng saw several obvious evidences such as shoe prints and the murder weapon at a glance, and was about to search the wardrobe and drawers in the house again when the mobile phone in his pocket vibrated.Bai Zizheng took out his mobile phone, and saw Gu Xiaohui's name on the caller ID.Although it wasn't a fully enclosed training these days, everyone in the team knew that he was in class, so they wouldn't call him easily.Bai Zizheng hesitated for a moment, the handset icon still slid to hang up, but it didn't take long for the call to come in again.

Kang Zhenying was originally standing near the door to supervise, but seeing Bai Zizheng frequently took out his phone to check, he came over and asked him what happened.Because of Chi Lang's relationship, Kang Zhenying has taken care of him a lot these days, and the atmosphere in this class is not as serious as it usually is.After Kang Zhenying approached, he glanced at his mobile phone screen, and asked with a smile, "Is there a phone call?"

Bai Zizheng said, "A colleague called."

Kang Zhenying said: "Then take it." While signaling Bai Zizheng to go out, he called Jia Chensong who was behind in line to come in.

Bai Zizheng found a secluded corridor to answer the phone. Before he could speak, Gu Xiaohui's eager voice came in through the receiver: "Ah, brother Bai, you finally answered the phone!"

Bai Zizheng heard something wrong with his voice, and asked, "What's wrong?"

Gu Xiaohui panicked and said: "It's over, brother Bai, Chi Ke... this time is really troublesome." He lowered his voice, "Captain Fu asked me not to tell you about this, but I think ...This is too... Wouldn't it be better to ask Professor Kang to come over and help! Otherwise, this matter...how could it be like this..."

Bai Zizheng was puzzled by Gu Xiaohui's hesitation to speak, and hearing that the matter was related to Chi Lang confirmed the subtle uneasiness before.Chi Lang's performance in the past two days can't be said to be abnormal, but he can still feel a little difference compared with usual. Bai Zizheng thought he was still nervous about going home for dinner, and these days he lived with Jia Chensong again. It's not convenient to say anything more.Listening to Gu Xiaohui's eight sentences now, he couldn't get to the point, so he couldn't help but say, "Just say it, what's the matter?"

Gu Xiaohui struggled for a while, and finally plucked up the courage to say: "Brother Bai, this is big news. Do you know that Chi Ke... Chi Ke is actually gay!"
