There are also spruce trees in Yancheng.Especially beside the mountains and waterfalls, there are improved transplanted varieties.

"It is said that spruce likes to be cloudy and cold." Pei Shan noticed that Tang Liyan's eyes fell on these plants, and explained, "But this kind of plant is really strong. No matter where it is, it can grow freely."

"You know a lot." Tang Liyan smiled and asked, "Does that souvenir shop sell spruce?"

"Seems to be."

The two of them were already on their way down the mountain. After hearing this, Pei Shan led Tang Liyan into the shop.It is indeed a souvenir monopoly inside, there are many unique wooden products or refrigerator magnets on the top of the mountain.

"This is quite interesting." Tang Liyan pointed to the window, "Is this a whistle? Come get one!"

Pei Shan smiled and asked him why he was interested in this kind of thing, Tang Liyan said that when he was in the police academy, he listened to the instructor's whistle every day, and always wanted to make one to hang around his neck.Not only did he make it for himself, Tang Liyan also bought one for Pei Shan.

"Why did you give it to me?" Pei Shan looked at it dumbfounded, "It's really strange to hang the red thread with the color of the log."

"That's better than your red string tattoo!" Tang Liyan muttered.

Pei Shan didn't speak, and pulled him down the mountain with a suppressed smile.

Although he didn't sleep much all night, Pei Shan didn't feel too tired. Instead, he felt the pleasure of surviving after a catastrophe—this adjective is not very precise, but Pei Shan did see a completely different Tang Liyan.

Pei Shan saw the police officer last night and asked, "Do you want to go to our play rehearsal?"

The footsteps of the person in front of him paused, his tone couldn't tell whether it was acquiescence or displeasure: "It's okay."

So Pei Shan rode his motorcycle again and took people to the theater.

There are few people in this theater on weekdays, especially during the day, only a few troupes will borrow the rehearsal space, so the rent is also cheap.

The rehearsal of "Long Summer" has entered a white-hot stage. Shi Pei asked the actors to rehearse with makeup, and change some details from time to time to follow the stage effect.

When Pei Shan and Tang Liyan entered the room, what they saw was this scene: On the stage, a scholar-like man in a long gown was reciting a monologue, and then suddenly jumped and sank into the River of Beasts.The background music became passionate and sad with a plop, the curtain was drawn down, and the narrator in black drove the carriage and read, "I don't want to be humiliated again..."

After the words were finished, Pei Shan pulled Tang Liyan to sit firmly in front of the stage, and saw Shi Pei holding a piece of paper full of stripes and stripes in one hand, and the pencil cap was bitten uneven by him.

"Shanshan, why did you come here without saying hello?" Shi Pei's eyes did not give Tang Liyan any attention, "If we knew you were coming, we would start later and let you watch the whole scene."

"No, we'll just take a look and go back later," Pei Shan said.

Tang Liyan heard this sentence with a different meaning - look, Pei Shan is still partial to himself between himself and his ex-boyfriend!

Satisfied, the young police officer smiled and said, "Yes, he just took me to see something new!"

"Okay." Shi Pei pointed at the script, then curled his lips on the stage, "According to the adapted script, the next scene is that the students pass by the river and rescue the husband."

Hearing this, Tang Liyan asked, "This is different from what I imagined. I thought, this person has to trade his own death for something?"

Pei Shan was silent for a while, then sighed, "Actually, it should be like this. No matter from the point of view of history or logic, he should be a hero and be remembered as the dead—" the chief writer said and sat on the seat Standing on the stage, he pointed to the actor behind him, "Perhaps it was the actor Shen Heqian's lines that touched me. I agree with Director Shi that it would be too cruel to just 'remember' him."

This didn't get any feedback, because the young police officer hadn't realized it yet—he thought Pei Shan was talking to the actor, but he seemed to be talking to himself, but he couldn't hear it anyway.

"Actually, I don't know what kind of ending is good. Although tragedy can give people a deeper impression, people who are in it will feel that the sky is falling." Pei Shan stared at the stage, "So, maybe this is the The charm of creation? Make up for those regrets, and leave room for the audience to imagine.”

Pei Shan didn't expect that his words would make Tang Liyan's mood fluctuate.In the eyes of his police officer, he and Shi Pei have a tacit understanding and cannot be replaced by others.

"It's good. Let's chat." Tang Liyan turned his head and immediately decided not to come to this place again.

Pei Shan asked: "Are you going back now?"

"Back!"

"I'm with you." Pei Shan greeted Shi Pei, and of course he got a blank stare, and followed Tang Liyan out angrily, "Go back to the police force? Or go home?"

"Go back to the police force. Wait a minute, I'll answer the phone first."

Just as he was talking, Tang Liyan picked up his mobile phone and motioned for him to dispatch everything, "Hello? The No. [-] Brigade of the Hongjie Police Station in Yancheng City."

"Officer Tang? I'm Zheng Caiyun." The voice on the other end was so loud that Pei Shan could be heard a meter away, "Have you seen Cai Xun?"

The name Cai Xun was a long time ago, and it was only then that Pei Shan realized that he hadn't been harassed by those gangsters for a long time.It may be the police officer's credit, so Pei Shan got closer to Tang Liyan, and heard Zheng Caiyun's repeated crying from the microphone: "Cai Xun may have run away from home... I thought he went to Lawyer He's house yesterday. , I don’t care about it. But I asked today and found that Lawyer He didn’t know where he went!”

"Don't worry." Tang Liyan put away his usual indifferent attitude, and asked very seriously, "I'm going back to the office now. Now you report the crime with your ID card and proof of relationship, and then tell me when he last appeared The place, and what it said to you."

Zheng Caiyun spoke intermittently for a while before Pei Shan understood.

Only then did he know that Zheng Caiyun's husband, whose identity he had never known, was Cai Xun's father, Cai Yun, the boss of Cai's Metallurgical Plant.

This surprised him.Cai Yun has always shown himself as a private entrepreneur and philanthropist. When people mention this man, they will only say that he has a child who does not live up to expectations and a wife who shows his face. The worst scandal is nothing more than a "cuckold". Rumors like that.Pei Shan really failed to associate such a successful and humble image with the man who went crazy and smashed the store that day.

"You already knew?" Pei Shan sat on the back seat of the motorcycle and asked Tang Liyan, "No wonder you didn't tell me who that person was when I asked you that day."

"You will know when you make the transcript. I was thinking, you know that these are useless except to embarrass yourself. Just don't talk about it." Tang Liyan twisted the handle twice, "Sit still, I have to drive faster .”

Pei Shan got into the car and asked, "Why did Cai Xun run away from home?"

"Hey, the kid has lost his temper." Tang Liyan sighed, "Lawyer He wants to file a lawsuit for his father and bail him out. But Lawyer He knows about Cai Yun's domestic violence. Cai Xun probably feels the same in his heart." Contradictory, afraid that Lawyer He would help his father to tell lies, and feel very pitiful. I didn't think about it for a while, so I ran out. "

Tang Liyan received a call from He Wenze as early as the day he finished saving Pei Shan and taking notes for Cai Yun.

The other party asked him how the case was going and why he took Cai Yun away.The voice is still polite, and the words are very polite, obviously serving his master, like a conscientious housekeeper.

"It is inconvenient to disclose. The specific result will have to wait for the judgment." This was Tang Liyan's answer at the time.

Later, Tang Liyan and his colleagues did not fail to investigate Cai Yun's social relations.Almost everyone said that Cai Yun was a gentle and polite boss who often did charity work and even donated a building to his alma mater, Town Middle School.Only Zheng Caiyun was very excited on the day of the interrogation, with a bruised face that hadn't healed, and an injury appraisal in his hand, describing the tragic situation of being beaten to the female police officer over and over again.

Cai Xun, on the other hand, still acted as if he was not afraid of anything. Even if he was asked the question "Have you ever suffered violence?"

The boy's yellow bangs were long enough to poke into his eyes.Tang Liyan couldn't help plucking the hair in front of his forehead, but found that there was an unhealed scar on the corner of his forehead.

"Don't touch me!" Cai Xun was stimulated, jumped up suddenly, and threw the table violently, "I knew how to catch me before! What's wrong with my fights? Lao Cai beats people with wine bottles Yes! There is also that bitch surnamed Zheng who likes to steal people! Arrest them, lock them up one by one, and let everyone surnamed Cai in Yancheng die!"

Cai Xun looked like a furious little lion, with red eye circles, as if he was crying out of anger.

But in the next second, the little lion patted his fur again, sat down tremblingly, and asked Tang Liyan, "Well, I'm just joking. You won't really arrest our family, will you?"

Tang Liyan paused for two seconds and motioned for everyone to leave.After everyone had left, he turned around and put a roll of tissue in front of Cai Xun.

The boy raised his head slightly, but his eyes were red, "Officer Tang, I want to ask you a question."

Tang Liyan waited for him to speak, but he could only hear the hum of the air conditioner in the room.But Tang Liyan was rarely patient. He waited until Ruan Mingzhi was urging him outside before he heard Cai Xun ask, "If my dad is really arrested, how long will it take for him to come out..."

Tang Liyan remembered his answer at the time, "I don't care what I say. I don't know if Lawyer He will appear in court. If he goes, he should tell you."

Of course he knew that such an answer would serve no consoling effect.It's just that Tang Liyan can feel Cai Xun's sense of dependence on He Wenze, and can also guess how much warmth has been given to Cai Xun by Lawyer He's care when his father's love is absent.

However, if Zheng Caiyun and Cai Yun really went to court, and He Wenze defended Cai Yun, Tang Liyan couldn't imagine how much it would be a blow to Cai Xun.

Is Cai Xun coming this year?Tang Liyan thought, why is it so difficult for everyone?

Officer Tang's distraction naturally couldn't escape the eyes of the people in the back seat.

Seeing that Tang Liyan was in a bad mood, Pei Shan hugged him tightly at the right time, and shouted against the wind: "If you are distracted while driving a motorcycle, accidents are easy to happen."

"Hey, it's okay, I'm thinking of that kid Cai Xun." Tang Liyan said, "Listen to what Sister Zheng said, he is too contradictory. He also wants to escape his father's control, and he doesn't want to lose his father's love so early. He Wenze wanted to defend the person who beat him, so he got angry and ran out."

Pei Shan was speechless all the way.He was only worried about what accidents would happen if Tang Liyan drove so fast, so he didn't dare to distract the people in the front seat for a minute.It wasn't until after the police station that he said, "Be careful."

Tang Liyan didn't have much time to say anything else, because the police officer and his colleagues made a hasty explanation and entered the office.

The person who placed the order stopped and stood outside the door for a while, until the chattering sound was blocked by the door, then returned to the bookstore and continued to finish the new book Shen Zhuoqing handed him.

After the bookstore was smashed, it was carefully cleaned and renovated, and the glass walls were changed to solid ones.At that time, Shi Pei also hurt his overly retro aesthetics, laughing at him for being bitten by a snake once, afraid of well ropes for ten years, and dare not even install a glass door.

Pei Shan really didn't dare to take risks.It's not that I'm afraid that I will be in danger, but that I'm afraid that it will increase the workload of the grassroots police—mainly a certain policeman.

At the end of summer, the temperature difference between day and night in Yancheng increases sharply, followed by thunderstorms every night.

Pei Shan wrote and forgot the time, and before he knew it, it was dinner time, and Shi Pei was still wasting away in the theater in the main city.Pei Shan turned on the TV by himself, tuned the channel and listened to it.

The downpour of the rainstorm happened in an instant. There was a bang outside the door, a silver snake cut through the night, and the raindrops hit the canopy.

Then the TV vibrated, and Pei Shan hurriedly got up, trying to unplug the power.

After walking into the screen, I realized that I was tuned to a local satellite TV.The news headlines are:

[The only son of Cai's metallurgical plant ran away from home, and seven members of the police force went up the mountain to search and rescue the missing. ]

There was another bang, the screen flickered, and then went out completely with the loud thunder.
