Xu Shanlan

The phone rang exactly at seven o'clock in the morning, and the minutes and seconds were exactly right. It fit Cong Zhanyi and Xu Shanlan's work and rest time very well. It happened that they had just finished breakfast and hadn't left the table. heart.

Cong Zhanyi picked up the phone, and the voice over there confirmed his guess, it was the jungle.

As long as it has anything to do with the jungle, Cong Zhanyi always felt like he was facing a big enemy. He subconsciously tightened the corners of his mouth, as if there was extremely bad news from there. In fact, Cong Zhanyi simply said: "Your uncle got off the plane." , come to me first."

"Understood, Master." Cong Zhanyi said goodbye to his biological father without further words, put down the phone, and looked up to see Xu Shanlan looking at him with his black eyes.

Cong Zhanyi repeated lightly: "Uncle Master has gone to Master's side, and he may not be able to come back for dinner at night."

"Oh." Xu Shanlan shrugged, picked up the glass of milk in front of him and drank it down, stuck out the tip of his tongue to lick his lips, and jumped up to go upstairs to change clothes.Cong Zhanyi said: "Come here." Beckoning Xu Shanlan to his side, raised his thumb to wipe off the remaining milk stains on the young man's lips: "Wipe your mouth, what does it look like?"

Xu Shanlan smiled indifferently, took out a tissue and wiped it carelessly. He was always sloppy and casual in life, completely opposite to Cong Zhanyi's habit of being clean and almost obsessed with cleanliness.This kind of trivial matter doesn't need to be worried by him as a young master, isn't there a senior brother?

Over there, Conglin got up and went to the kitchen to serve tremella pear soup. After a taste, he felt that it was almost cold, so he brought it over and put it on the coffee table.Yin Yi was nestled loosely on the big sofa, with his eyes half closed, as if he was sleeping or not.

"When you're tired, go inside and rest. It's uncomfortable to lie here." Cong Cong complained, and pushed Yin Yi, "Get up, drink something, I must have not eaten well on the plane."

With a smile on his lips, Yin Yi sat up slowly, picked up a spoon and ate the white fungus pear into his stomach bit by bit.Conglin muttered while packing up the gifts Yin Yi brought back from abroad: "Buying random things, how can imperialism have any good things? It's really corrupt!"

The voice stopped suddenly, Conglin squinted his eyes, staring at the photo in the delicate frame in his hand, in which a golden-haired foreigner hugged Yin Yi tightly, and laughed passionately at the camera.

"Who is this?" Jungle asked.

"A disciple, just accepted abroad." Yin Yi was really hungry on the plane, and he ate up the pear soup in one go, holding up an empty bowl and asking, "Is there any more?"

Jungle took it and hurried into the kitchen to fill another bowl, hurriedly walked back, and continued to ask: "Foreigners? You accept foreigners as apprentices?"

"Hmm...American." Yin Yi looked at the jungle with a slightly mocking look, "American imperialism."

"How can I do that!" Jungle jumped up suddenly, "What do they know? Is it a waste of effort to teach them? You are serious, you can't accept disciples, but you have to get a foreigner!"

"He is sincere." Yin Yi ate this bowl slowly, "Stay in front of my door for three full days, and I will feel sorry if I don't accept it."

Jungle let out a snort of disdain, and said, "Sugar-coated cannonballs, who knows what they are thinking about."

"Anyway, I'm back and I can't teach anymore." Yin Yi paused, seemingly casually said, "Zhan Yi mentioned to me that this time Lanzi is going to participate in the Sanda competition, there is that child Ye Qingyu, Lanzi His chances of winning the championship are very slim, so he might as well switch to other projects, maybe there will be greater development. As for Zhan Yi..." He raised his eyes and looked at the jungle, whose hands were busy cleaning up the dishes, expressionless.Yin Yi sighed softly in his heart, and said, "Zhan Yi won't take part in competitions anymore, neither routine nor Sanda."

Conglin put the bowl on the coffee table with a "boom" and said angrily, "What does it matter to me whether he participates or not? You don't need to tell me!"

Yin Yi straightened his legs, leaned on the big sofa again, and yawned: "It's okay, you asked someone for the entry list?"

"Who said that?" There was a look of embarrassment on Jungle's face.

"Hai Ping, didn't you just ask him to ask?"

Conglin frowned, and became angry from embarrassment: "This little bastard, I will punish him to death tonight!"

"You know how to do this too." Yin Yi stabbed at Jungle, and then said, "It's your birthday in two days, let Zhan Yi make arrangements for you."

"Hey, no!" Jungle immediately waved his hand and refused, "Don't come here, let me meet him, unless I die!"

Cong Zhanyi sent Xu Shanlan to the school gate, and saw a group of students pointing around the bulletin board.Luo Yanan poked his head out from the crowd and waved at Xu Shanlan repeatedly.

Originally, Cong Zhanyi wanted to leave immediately after Xu Shanlan got off the car, but when he saw the girl, he stopped for some reason, and simply followed Xu Shanlan.

"Lanzi." Luo Yanan pointed to the bulletin board, "Look quickly!"

Xu Shanlan leaned over to read it carefully, and it turned out that it was the revelation posted by the police to find witnesses. He let out a soft "huh" and turned his head to exchange a meaningful look with Luo Yanan.He said, "How could this be?"

"Yeah, I didn't expect it." Luo Yanan was shocked, annoyed, and a little sad, "I would have taken him to the hospital if I knew about it."

"Hmm." Xu Shanlan was also quite disappointed.

The two talked to themselves, and what they said sounded meaningless to outsiders, but it was obvious that they understood the meaning completely.Cong Zhanyi couldn't help frowning, and had to admit that he hated this feeling very much, as if there was something between Xu Shanlan and this girl that he didn't know.He asked, "What's the matter?"

Seeing that there were many people around, Xu Shanlan pulled Cong Zhanyi aside and introduced them first: "Brother, this is Luo Yanan, my classmate—this is my brother."

When Cong Zhanyi saw Luo Yanan for the first time, he looked the girl up and down with a sharp and harsh gaze.Luo Yanan is not beautiful, and his clothes are very ordinary, his hair is too short, his gestures are not gentle and shy like ordinary girls, but he looks like a boy.So Cong Zhanyi didn't take this "tomboy" seriously at first, Lanzi should have normal contacts with him at school, Cong Zhanyi just wasn't used to Xu Shanlan being more familiar with others than him.He asked again: "Is there something wrong?"

Looking at the tall and serious man in front of him, Luo Yanan felt an inexplicable pressure.She had heard Xu Shanlan mention her elder brother earlier, but she never thought that it was such a person, who must be strict and rigid at ordinary times.She glanced at Xu Shanlan sympathetically, but when she looked back, she found that Cong Zhanyi was staring at her. She felt very uncomfortable and smiled cautiously.

"Two nights ago after school, I went home with Luo Yanan." Xu Shanlan said with gestures, "It turned out that there was a fight on the side of the road, not far from the school."

"It seems, it seems to be a few students." Luo Yanan added.

"So you went up to 'do what is right'?" Cong Zhanyi knew in his heart that this little junior looked gentle and honest, but he actually had ideas.Especially those who practice martial arts always want to try their skills when they have the opportunity. Occupational diseases can't be cured.

Xu Shanlan smiled and scratched his head in embarrassment.Luo Yanan said: "It's outrageous for several of them to beat one at a time. Lanzi is so powerful, he knocked them away in two or three hits."

Cong Zhanyi said indifferently: "There is a problem if you don't fight and run away, which means that the kung fu is all for nothing."

Luo Yanan stuck out his tongue secretly, not daring to speak anymore.

Xu Shanlan went on to say: "At that time, we saw that the person who was beaten seemed to be fine, and there was not much blood on his body, but his clothes were torn. We asked him if he needed to go to the hospital, and he said no, so we left. Who knows... ..." He pointed to the bulletin board, "That person is actually dead."

Cong Zhanyi raised his eyebrows and read the notice from beginning to end. It turned out that the police found the body and wanted to find witnesses.To save trouble, they posted a notice at the school gate.

Luo Yanan looked at Xu Shanlan with questioning eyes, and asked, "What should I do?"

Xu Shanlan turned to Cong Zhanyi and said, "Brother, I want to testify."

Cong Zhanyi thought for a while, and there seemed to be no reason not to go, so he said, "Okay, I'll go with you." He picked up his mobile phone to make a call, told the secretary to postpone the morning regular meeting, and asked Luo Yanan , "Do you need to notify your parents?"

"No need." Luo Yanan shook his head indifferently, "It's not a big deal, I'll just go by myself."

Unexpectedly, this girl was quite courageous, Cong Zhanyi turned around and opened the door: "Then get in the car."

Several people went to a nearby police station, and two police officers recorded testimony to Xu Shanlan and Luo Yanan respectively.Because it was just around five o'clock at that time, it was not too dark, and they were in close contact. The two children could clearly see the faces of the people who were fighting, and described them one by one.Including clothing, age, and they all clearly remember that the child headed by the other party has a mole on his cheekbone.

The policemen were very satisfied with the cooperation of the two men, and thanked Cong Zhanyi repeatedly.Xu Shanlan and Luo Yanan felt that they could help solve the case, and they were quite happy and proud.Xu Shanlan said to Cong Zhanyi: "Brother, I can just walk back with Yanan, it's pretty close anyway."

Cong Zhanyi rushed back to the company for a meeting, and didn't object. He watched the two walk away like close buddies.

Of course they didn't know that after the two policemen compiled their testimony, they handed it over to Zhang Dongqiao, the deputy director.Zhang Dongqiao was taken aback when he saw it.He kept the testimony in his hand for a whole morning, and sat on pins and needles in the office, finally made up his mind to present it to the director Liu Xiaoliang.

Liu Xiaoliang didn't pay much attention to it at first, he just said: "Well, let's follow the procedure."

"No, Director Liu, please take a closer look." Zhang Dongqiao passed the testimony forward again, and pointed out a few lines describing the murderer's appearance, "I think it looks like...it looks like..."

He didn't go on, but Liu Xiaoliang suddenly understood, and the blood all over his body suddenly became cold.He grabbed the testimony and read clearly word by word, but the more he read it, the more blurred his vision became, and there was a buzzing in his head, with bursts of pain.His hands trembled involuntarily, no matter what, he could no longer hold the two thin pages of paper, and let them fall lightly onto the table.He put his hands on his forehead, gritted his teeth and sighed fiercely.

Zhang Dongqiao was right, that man was very much like Liu Xiaoliang's own son.

Liu Xiaoliang's mind was spinning quickly, thinking of his son's capricious mood changes these days, remembering that he had taken a few days off for no reason and not going to school, remembering that he had always been dishonest in fighting...he tried his best to control his emotions, and repeatedly ordered Said: "The evidence is still insufficient, send people... Send people to continue the investigation... Especially the victim, what is the name of the victim?"

"Zhang Di."

"Yes, Zhang Di. Check his background, check..." Liu Xiaoliang said a few words, and gradually regained his composure, "Also, we need to continue to improve the testimony of the two children, do you understand?" He Looking at Zhang Dongqiao, his expression had a deep meaning.

Zhang Dongqiao nodded understandingly: "Don't worry, Director Liu, I will step up the investigation."
