Lantern: Reflection of the Peach Blossoms

Four days later, in front of the National Security Unit 547 building.

Zhang Shun stopped the Ferrari, wore sunglasses and casual clothes, and stepped on sneakers. Under the watchful eyes of two armed policemen on duty, Zhang Shun showed his access card, and then walked into the gate.

The next moment, there was a loud "bang!" sound of a car crash, and Zhang Shun suddenly turned his head, only to see the front of his Ferrari sunk deeply into the utility pole, and a silver-gray Cayenne stuck firmly on the back of the car.

Zhang Shun took off his sunglasses in disbelief, and saw the Cayenne door opened, and Zhou Hui easily got out of the car, wondering, "Huh? Why did my brakes fail?"

Then he looked at the empty driver's seat of the Ferrari, and then turned his head to see the stunned Zhang Shun on the steps, and said in a low voice, "...it's a pity."

"..." Zhang Shun broke out suddenly: "You fucking did it on purpose! It's not that the brakes failed at all, but you thought I was in the car! Are you sick, stupid Zhou!"

Zhang Shun rushed over to beat Zhou Hui, but Zhou Hui hurriedly called his brother-in-law and hid.When he was about to leave the car, the door on the other side of the Cayenne suddenly opened, and Chu He got out of the car door and shouted: "—stop!"

When Zhang Shun saw it, he burst into tears of joy: "Brother! I thought you were dead!"

This is the first time that Zhang Ershao has seen his brother in several months. Before that, either the situation was chaotic and he could not meet each other, or Zhou Hui detained Chuhe and was not allowed to leave the house. When Zhang Ershao was extremely depressed, he even suspected his brother. Zhou Hui had already silenced him. If Yu Jingzhong and Li Hu hadn't tried their best to stop him, he would have rushed to the door to kill Zhou Hui.

The three walked into Unit 547, Zhou Hui was humming a song and walked in the front, Zhang Shun was half a step behind, and asked Chuhe, "Brother, how are you doing? You were not injured when the city of Beijing was shrouded in death last time, right?" ?”

Chu He was wearing a slim black suit, unbuttoned and tie, looking thin and casual.Even in brightly lit places, his face was a little pale, but at least he looked better than when he was running out of blood in City H. Hearing this, he shook his head and said, "No injury - why are you here?"

"Deputy Director Yu called me and said it was an emergency." Zhang Shun shrugged: "Unfortunately, both Zhou and you haven't shown up for a long time. The second group leader Wu left from the Northeast and he hasn't arrived yet. My brother was seriously injured again, and Deputy Director Yu said that I could barely be a combat envoy, and asked me to come to Guoan to be on duty every now and then..."

Zhou Hui couldn't bear it when he heard "unlucky surname Zhou", but just as he was about to say something, he was interrupted by Chu He's tone of voice: "——Brother?"

"Situ Yusan." Zhang Shun took it for granted: "The third brother is very good and takes good care of me. He often takes Shenwan, Jiuweihu and me out to pick up girls and sing K. Before he gets injured, we will take all the people from the underground casinos around him to the hospital. The place is trampled all over..."

Chuhe looked at him silently, with complicated emotions, and didn't speak for a long time.

Zhang Shun looked at his brother inexplicably, Chu He looked away for a while, and said expressionlessly: "It's nothing."

The elevator door opened with a ding, and the three of them walked out, bumping into Li Hu in the corridor facing them.

When Li Hu was a girl, she always wore her iconic breast-exploding outfit. When she saw Zhou Hui and Chu He, she was startled, and the peerless breasts almost jumped out tremblingly: "Feng Si! You can still come out! I thought you were dead!"

Chu He took a deep breath, and Zhou Hui hurriedly stopped her: "Don't learn from that idiot brother-in-law! Why are you here too?"

"Vice Yu said there was something he couldn't handle, so he called me here urgently." Li Hu brushed his long hair, hooking Zhang Shun's arm coquettishly.

And Zhang Ershao's reaction has changed from struggling and resisting not long ago to a numb expression now, and he doesn't know when he got used to her indiscriminate meat bomb attack.

Zhou Hui frowned, looked at the combination in front of him, and wondered what happened to make Yu Jingzhong suddenly call everyone including himself and Fenghuang to the special place?

"Hey, you guys who are slow in news, do you know that there has been a big gossip recently?" Li Hu looked around again, lowered his voice mysteriously, and said, "Our special place was suddenly airborne last week. A big boss..."

"Isn't our boss Deputy Yu?" Zhang Shun asked.

Zhou Hui said coldly, "Isn't our boss me?"

"...It's time to correct your erroneous perceptions of this world." Li Hu looked at the two of them with pity, "Although Yu Jingzhong is acting as his official position, after all, he still has an adverb on his head. It's very unpleasant. Last time he killed the old man of the Military Commission, someone deliberately tried to punish him, and some time ago, the third King Ming almost killed half of Beijing..."

Zhou Hui wondered, "If there is no surname Yu, the word 'almost' should be removed, okay? And then?"

"Oh, in short, political struggles are cruel and complicated." Li Hu said, "The current situation is that in order to get a piece of the special punishment, the people above grabbed Yu Jingzhong and punished him to death. This time, they simply parachuted a so-called The director surnamed Zhao just came to take office yesterday..."

Several people who came to work passed by, Li Hu immediately shut up.

After those people passed by, Zhang Shun asked curiously: "You just took office yesterday, why did you inquire so clearly today?"

Li Hu shyly twisted his waist: "He has a lot of male favorites, the Military Commission, the National People's Congress, the Politburo, I don't want to hear such crap... They have to compete to please me, it's so annoying."

Everyone: "..."

Zhang Shunfei quickly pulled out his arm and hid behind Chuhe tremblingly.

"What are you doing outside?" Not far away, Jingzhong stood at the door of the conference room with a cigarette in his mouth and a tablet computer in his hand, and asked inexplicably, "Why don't you come in when everyone is here? It's a meeting."

Yu Jingzhong’s face was as usual, nothing unusual, but in the eyes of others, he spoke and behaved as usual—a forced smile; three raised forehead lines on his eyebrows—full of vicissitudes of life; shrouded in white smoke from cigarettes—unbearable pain...

Everyone entered the meeting room full of emotion, opened their chairs and sat down sparsely. Yu Jingzhong turned on his tablet computer and connected to the projector without raising his head, and said, "I called everyone here today because there was an unprecedented emergency in the special office. The nature is very serious, and the current situation must be restored at all costs..."

Li Hu was the first to speak: "Vice Yu! We all support you!"

Zhang Shun immediately seconded: "Everyone is on your side, Director Yu!"

Zhou Hui said coldly: "Don't bother, the matter of killing that Zhao will be settled."

Everyone around agreed enthusiastically, and even Chuhe expressed his acquiescence with noncommittal.

However, Yu Jingzhong stared blankly at the group of people, with a capitalized expression on his face: "You... what are you talking about? Who did you kill?"

"Fuck that Zhao! I'll take care of the corpse!" Situ Yu pushed the door open three times and entered. His arms, neck, and most of his face were wrapped in bandages, but the Hermès silk scarf, Van Cleef & Arpels men's watch, and the face were all covered with bandages. The unidentifiable gold-rimmed glasses are still shining, showing his inhumane style of painting: "—to ensure that there is no minced meat left, clean and trouble-free without leaving traces, professional quality proves everything!"

The crowd gave three praises to Situ Yu, who was fighting with injuries, and the praise gathered into a sea of ​​joy.

"...You guys...what are you thinking?" Only Yu Jingzhong's mouth twitched, he tapped his hand, and the head of Team Leader Wu Er appeared on the projection screen: "The emergency I'm talking about is that Team Leader Wu Er is on his way to Guoan. disappeared!"

·

Team leader Wu Er, full name Wu Bei, is 33 years old this year. Before the age of 30, he was "doing a small business" in the Northeast. The tiger ghost is sad.

Within the jurisdiction of this person, all the gangsters walk close to him, the underworld is clean, K-fan ecstasy is completely extinct, and even the bar owners who ask Russian girls to dance lap dances only hate themselves for being opaque-there is no other reason, probably because of this person It is the largest underworld in the area.

The reason why the surname Wu is so arrogant is because three years ago he joined the No. [-] Team of the National Security Bureau and became the boss of the northeast gangster with a background of national civil servants.

"--this profile is not accurate," Li Hu said to Zhang Shun: "You haven't seen Wu's second child--even your brother. When he came to Guoan, your brother was still a cat in H City. Wu This guy Bei, he is not a gangster boss in the simple sense, he..."

Li Hu clasped his hands together and held them in front of his chest, with a girlish pink light in his eyes: "He is a man with romanticism, melancholy and blues temperament, who pursues poetry, love and distant places! No, you can't use a man If you use this word to taint him, he will always be a northeastern boy whose eyes are as bright as the sky and whose heart is as vicissitudes as ice and snow!"

"..." Zhang Shun asked, "Then how did this northeast boy disappear?"

Yu Jingzhong sighed, switched images, and the sinuous curve of the Tibet Railway on the Chinese map appeared on the screen.

"Wu Bei will run across the desert every once in a while, or go to the snow-capped mountains to cleanse his soul." When he said this, Yu Jingzhong's expression was particularly indescribable. He paused and said: "A while ago, Wu Bei went to climb Mount Everest. It just so happened that Nepal returned a batch of equipment to us, so I asked him to bring it to Beijing along the way..."

He pointed at a certain point on the railway line with an infrared pen: "Four days ago, after he retrieved his equipment, he took four members of the second group and boarded a car numbered K7350 at this place called Luhucuo. This is the last place where Wu Bei appeared that we could verify. On the same day, a group of independents carrying the snow mountain lion flag rioted on the train, and then the train was lost.”

Zhang Shunqi said: "The train lost the news?!"

"Yes, K7350 did not reach the target station, and the train disappeared on the plain."

Yu Jingzhong put down the infrared pen and was about to say something when suddenly the door was pushed open.

A man in his fifties with a short stature and a shy belly held a thermos cup and walked in with a smile, followed by Shenwan Tiansi who was full of displeasure.

"Why did you come here?" Yu Jingzhong stared at Shenwan Tiansi in surprise, then called Director Zhao, and introduced to everyone: "This is the director-level officer specially assigned by the higher-level department to better lead our work." The leader, Director Zhao Yong, just took office yesterday..."

Everyone looked at "Director Zhao" with complicated eyes, but no one spoke.

Shenwan Tiansi angrily walked between Chuhe and Zhou Hui, pulled out his chair and sat down with a bang.Was it the child who had been fed for a few days when they were young? Both of them looked at him strangely. After a while, Zhou Hui asked in a low voice, "What's wrong with you, fifth? Who bullied you?"

Shenwan Tiansi said bitterly: "They all bully me! They think I have something to do with the carjacking!"

Director Zhao smiled and walked to the front, unceremoniously pulled the chief seat away and sat down, and put the thermos cup at hand.His expression seemed to be casual and careless on purpose when he knew that he was being watched by everyone. The problem was that he didn't know that these gazes were actually looking at a piece of meat on Situ Yusan's plate.

Yu Jingzhong raised his hand to support his forehead.

"Sorry, ah, interrupted your meeting."

Director Zhao coughed, took a sip of tea to moisten his throat, and said with a reserved smile: "My name is Zhao Yong, the mean of the mean. We Chinese pay attention to the mean of the gentleman, and the mean of the mean, and the mean of the mean. The mean of the mean. Also, a petty person has no scruples; so it is not okay to be unscrupulous in everything, and you must follow the rules in everything, and there is no rule without rules..."

Zhang Shun said: "I wonder where this uncle jumped out, the style of painting is wrong."

Li Hu said angrily: "Wu Er Er's life and death are uncertain! What is he doing here!"

"...Before I came here, I heard that the special office has a loose style of work, comes and goes casually, and does not have the mental outlook that a worker in a government agency in our country should have-of course, this is not a criticism. I can understand the work habits of some comrades, ah , this is difficult to change, but it doesn’t matter, we can take it slowly, improve ourselves a little every day, and slowly change the current situation where we do things without a central idea and without a main program..."

"...Just like the train hijacking incident this time," Director Zhao finally changed the topic and returned to the main topic of the meeting, his tone suddenly became serious and solemn: "This time the train was hijacked, first of all we have to worry about it." This is a bad act of certain religious fanatics in Tibetan areas who have used violence and bloodshed to instigate division and cause confrontation among the people! This is contrary to our consistent management methods for ethnic minority areas! Then we Now that this matter has been determined, the following method of handling it is..."

Director Zhao smiled and turned to Yu Jingzhong. Just as he was about to say something, Deputy Yu immediately cut off the conversation: "The following handling methods still need Director Zhao to give you specific guidance."

Director Zhao was obviously choked up, but the smile on his round face remained unchanged: "This...Of course, first of all, we must strongly condemn this behavior, which has brought great losses to the safety of people's lives and property..."

Yu Jingzhong strongly agreed: "It makes sense!"

"This...in order to appease the psychology of the people and maintain the current situation of balance and unity, we cannot publicize this incident, so as not to cause excessive interpretation and exaggeration by interested people, and some mobs on the Internet who are afraid of chaos will interfere with their speeches. Our work……"

"Then what do you mean?" Yu Jingzhong asked immediately.

He steadfastly threw back the pot that Director Zhao was trying to throw back, but the latter did not expect that Yu Jingzhong, who had always been very "meat" on the surface, would be so slippery, his narrowed eyes blinked a few times quickly, Zhang After talking several times, I suddenly grasped the inspiration: "Yes! Then there is the search, the private search - the other party will definitely ask us after hijacking the train. We just need to wait for the robbers to come to contact us, and at the same time contact the local police, along the way A careful search of the railway line..."

"But," Yu Jingzhong asked doubtfully, "four days have passed, and the other party didn't take the initiative to contact you?"

Zhou Hui chuckled, and turned to the side with Situ and Li Hu covering their mouths at the same time.

"That's right, the robbers haven't contacted us for four days, which means———" Director Zhao rolled his eyes and said quickly, "It means that the other party intends to blackmail the government and create panic and chaos! Under such circumstances, we have to stabilize ourselves, contact the local police as much as possible, and at the same time remember to keep our mouths shut to the outside world, and we must not leak any information..."

Yu Jingzhong sighed, stood up, and walked behind Director Zhao.

Director Zhao was still eloquently giving instructions when Yu Jingzhong stretched out his hand and pinched the back of his thick neck.

In an instant, Director Zhao's eyes were blank, his expression blank, and he fell onto the table two seconds later.

·

"It's said to be a senior leader of the Public Security Bureau. I thought it was some powerful character." Deputy Yu returned to his seat with a sigh, and while re-connecting the projector, he said, "At first, I wanted someone to take over, so I just threw it away." Go to this stall... Sigh, I really shouldn't overestimate the lower limit of this group of people."

He raised his head, only to see that everyone was looking at him with loving and moved eyes.

"--What's wrong?"

Yu Fu was puzzled, but Zhou Hui stretched out his hand first, and patted him on the shoulder heavily.Immediately after were Situ, Zhang Shun, and Li Hu shook his chest while patting, and said with infinite emotion: "Brother Jing, you have been a mother for so long, I even forgot that you are not a good-for-nothing..."

"What are you thinking about!" Yu Jingzhong said furiously, "I just did it myself because I was afraid that you would eat him!"

Yu Jingzhong had no idea that in the eyes of these people, his image was that of a spoiled and delicate flower that needed protection—he didn't know it, after all, even Yan Lanyu, a beauty who would fall down when the wind blows, was passed by everyone. One of the recognized combat power.

He continued to point to the Tibet railway line on the map with an infrared pen, and said: "We must immediately send people to search for the place where the train disappeared, and at the same time fully deploy defenses in the entire Tibetan area. It is impossible for a train to disappear without anyone noticing it." On the railway network, either the space-time tunnel suddenly opened, or the ground collapsed and the train fell, in short, as long as something happens, it will definitely leave traces—what do you think?"

He nodded to Zhou Hui, who was leaning comfortably on Chu He's shoulder, staring at the map and asking, "Who do you want to go?"

This is a good question.

Deputy Yu thought for a while, and said: "This time the trouble is in the Tibetan area. The surname Zhao wants to punish me by reviewing Tiansi, so Tiansi can't leave. Beijing must have enough people to protect the defense circle of the capital. Zhou Hui also I can't go. Situ is injured, so it's best not to travel long distances in a short period of time..."

He paused, and looked at Chuhe with consulting eyes:

"Using the tortoise shell to calculate the geographic position and track specific targets within nine days and ten places is your specialty...how about you take Zhang Shun and Lao Liu for a trip?"

Chu He turned his gaze to Zhou Hui who was beside him.

Sure enough, the next second Zhou Hui covered his mouth with his fist and coughed: "Call Nine-Tailed Fox to stay in Beijing with Zhang Shun. I'll go there with Feng Si."

The combination of Nine-tailed Fox, Zhang Shun, and Shenwan Tiansi could not hold back the rear, Yu Jingzhong was just hesitating whether to agree, but Chu He suddenly said: "No, I want to take Zhang Shun with me. "

The whole audience was shocked, even Zhang Shun himself couldn't believe his ears: "...Brother, you don't intend to abandon me this time?!"

Chu He didn't answer, just listened to Zhou Hui lazily interjected: "——Why are you bringing your brother-in-law with you? The Tibetan Plateau, where the oxygen is thin, what should I do if my brother-in-law bursts his liver and can't come back..."

Chu He suddenly turned his head and met Zhou Hui's eyes.

On the surface, Zhou Hui was lazy and out of shape, with a handsome face and a frivolous temperament, but only those who knew him best could see that when he said this, his eyes clearly shone with a cold light full of calculations.

However, Chuhe was unmoved and looked at him without giving in.

There are things in the eyes of the two of them that no one else can understand, but only they themselves understand.After a long while, Zhou Hui finally looked away, gave a short laugh, and casually grabbed a pen and played with it in his hand: "——If you want to take it, take it with you. Hey... Poor brother-in-law, how much Hongjing do you have to drink when you go to Tibet? God..."

·

They discussed it internally, and Yu Jingzhong didn't have much opinion. In the end, the people left behind became Jisan, Nine-Tailed Fox, and Shenwan Tiansi; the Tibetan search and rescue team consisted of a former husband and wife, plus a brother-in-law who was an oil bottle.

Coming out of the conference room, Zhang Shun helped Yu Jingzhong carry the sleepy Director Zhao, and the others walked in front in twos and threes. Zhou Hui deliberately slowed down two steps, looked back at Chuhe and smiled, "Daughter-in-law?"

His smile was deep and full of charm, but Chu He stopped vigilantly: "What?"

In the corridor, Zhou Hui and Chu He stood opposite each other. The latter was thin and cautious, while the former was arrogant and unscrupulous. At first glance, it gave people an extremely chaotic and oppressive feeling.

Li Hu, who was the closest to them, was several steps away. Zhou Hui approached Chuhe's cheek, and said with a soft smile, "You must bring Zhang Shun... because you are afraid that I will send someone to stay in Beijing and kill him secretly." ,Is it right?"

Chuhe didn't answer.

"Are you so worried about gains and losses?" Zhou Hui smiled with interest, "It's just a bone, and you can't let it go?"

He observed Chuhe's expression carefully, only to see that his calm face had finally changed subtly, as if there was a complex and obscure expression that could not be revealed.

"—It's not like that," he finally shook his head and said, "It's the opposite of what you guessed..."
