Heart fire

It was only a matter of time before and after going up and down the stairs, and before the gate was out, he bumped into Yao Hongwei. When he came back, the office was empty, and Zhou Tong and the instructor disappeared out of thin air.Tu Ke couldn't believe his eyes, and the smile froze on his face. Yao Hongwei squinted at him: "Where is it?" Then he became angry: "Go and call me!"

Where am I going?Thinking of this, Tu Ke immediately put Li Lianying on his upper body, holding Yao Hongwei's arm, and took him to the sofa like a Lafayette, settled down, boiled water and made tea, and took out two Peach Borrowing Flowers to Offer Buddha: "Hey, old Comrade Yao, calm down, don't get angry, come and eat a peach, it's so sweet."

Yao Hongwei looked at the unwashed hairy peach handed to him, and snorted, "When did Team Tu learn to do this? The sun came out from the west, fresh."

Infectious diseases, they are all fucking infectious diseases, and flattering is the same, okay.Tu Ke was grinning on his face, but in his heart: I dare not.

"What's the matter?" Tu Ke cared to protect Zhou Tong, cared about him, and boasted first: "Zhou Tong is very good, he can endure hardships, he has a good mind and is hardworking. We didn't recruit new recruits in the first half of the year. Even without training, he can really keep up. Let me tell you, the person you Team Yao likes is definitely the same. You still miss me and put all the best in me..."

"How did I explain to you?" Yao Hongwei asked straight to the point, too lazy to listen to his sugar-coated bullets.

"Ah, yes, isn't this well taken care of?" Tu Ke pretended to be confused with understanding. "This child, you don't know how much you can eat. It was arranged by you. I have to feed him fat and fat. She is absolutely a treasure in the golden house, and she will return to Zhao after two years."

Unexpectedly, Yao Hongwei didn't appreciate it at all, and asked again under pressure: "Two days ago, Saturday, what did you do?"

Tu Ke thought about it very seriously and carefully: "Oh! I took him for a drive. I still have supper in the evening. What about the Fishing Boat Restaurant? I didn't treat him badly."

The corner of Yao Hongwei's mouth twitched. He folded his arms and listened to his serious nonsense until he couldn't stand it any longer. He took an envelope from his pocket and slapped him on the chest: "Re-edit! Everyone's thank-you letters have been sent to the special police of the city! If it weren't for that day You just went to check the work, and you still want to keep it from me?"

"Tell you to watch and watch, don't let him go to the police, you are good! Take me to be a hero!"

There was no way to hide it, so Tu Ke simply took out the letter and read it. It was indeed written by Chenchen's father.Xi Yang didn't give his name that day, but Zhou Tong and Wen Yue couldn't stand the old man's kneeling, so they confessed on the spot.

In addition to the thank you letter, there is also a picture attached to the envelope.Tu Ke shook his head and looked amusedly: "Hey! Who is this?"

"Who?" Yao Hongwei glared at him. "Three black and one white, are you blind or am I blind?" He poked at the fair one on the drawing paper: "Where's Xi Yang? Hurry up and call me!"

Tu Kexin said that I am not blind, white clothes and orange shorts, two big and round eyes, holding a child in the hand, this painting is obviously Wen Yue: "It's okay, you can just blame me, I will I brought it with me, Team Xi wasn’t there that day. Don’t you know who he is? He lived up to your entrustment and took good care of him. I also persuaded everyone who should be persuaded. The last time I went to the police, I almost used a rope to tie his trousers The belt is on."

"Just tell me if I was injured?" Yao Hongwei was not so easy to deal with.

"Ah." Tu Ke lowered his head and shook the tea in the cup, with a guilty conscience on his face.

Yao Hongwei listened to his "ah", and waited for a long time without further words, and he didn't get angry again: "Ah, what? Xiao Huoquan told me! It's your first day to do firefighting? How dangerous is blue fire? Don't you know?" You know? You let him drill in!"

Tu Ke still had a smile on his face, and in his heart: Huo Ci, wait for me, and handed over the brewed tea: "Okay, okay, my fault, I have rough skin and thick flesh, I will drill next time."

"Next time?!"

"No next time, no next time."

......

The office environment of the Secret Service Brigade is better than that of the detachment department, with all the supporting facilities, but the style is a bit old-fashioned, the leather sofa boss desk, and a set of special teacups for middle-aged and elderly people with dragons and phoenixes. Create a style of veteran cadres, or Tu Ke doesn't like to be treated, the more he stays, the more he feels retired.

Although the desk is big, the space below it is not that spacious. It is already the limit to accommodate Zhou Tong who is 188cm tall. If you add another Xi Yang, the two of them can only hug their knees and hug their waists, tightly squeezed together.Zhou Tong was like a big furnace emitting heat, forcing Xi Yang to have nowhere to hide, and he didn't know how to hide.The people outside have already opened the door and came in. Going out at this time is as embarrassing as staying. They are like two high school students who secretly learn to smoke behind the teacher's back. They are sneaky, lawless, naughty and absurd.

This is... what are you doing.

This is not the closest distance they have ever had, but the sound of each other's heartbeats is clearer than ever.But Xi Yang knew in his heart that Zhou Tong was just unintentional, and his heartbeat was not for him, but was constantly changing because of the content of the conversation between the two outside.

When I heard Tu Ke's praise, my heartbeat was joyful and joyful, with a little pride and a little shyness, which is the frequency of a child who has been affirmed and waiting for rewards. Although I haven't got full marks yet, but I work really, really hard.Fishing boat restaurant?I didn't eat it, but it didn't stop me from being happy, the corners of my mouth kept rising.

Chenchen's family wrote a letter of thanks?Chenchen also drew us a picture?What is the painting?Is there me?Can't wait to get out and have a look. "Instructor." Zhou Tong couldn't help but leaned closer to Xi Yang's ear, and said under his breath, "It's not you, I blamed you, I'm sorry, I'm sorry."

A mouthful of hot air was sprayed into the ear, which was so hot that the tip of the ear was instantly reddened.

It's a pity that the joy has not been warmed up, and it is immediately replaced by doubts.Not only the heartbeat, but even the breathing became urgent. I couldn't wait to continue listening, and felt unbelievable that the report card was fake?Did you cheat yourself?Conned by a white lie?Is such a hot heart and passion so underestimated and neglected?

"Don't let him call the police!"

"Okay, okay, my fault, I have rough skin and thick flesh, next time I will drill."

Yes.Others can go through fire and water, and other people's lives are not their lives, and Zhou Tong, from childhood to adulthood, is the one who should be protected no matter what, walking on paved roads, crossing bridges, and hiding in the shade. Under the shelter of love and shelter, be a seedling in the greenhouse, a young eagle that cannot flap its wings.

Xi Yang suddenly felt distressed, a pain like a pinprick that he hadn't felt in a long time.

Instead of rushing out to seek an explanation for his self-esteem in a hotheaded manner, the young man with a fresh mind forcefully pushed back the heat in his blood, hid his heartbeat, and distanced himself from himself without saying a word.My heart sank as the space around me sank, he hates me to death, Xi Yang thought.That was a dream that both he and Tu Ke couldn't bear to laugh at, it was a youthful ambition they both had, but it was shattered by him and them at this moment.How could he bear it? Compared with Zhou Tong, the one he couldn't face at this moment was probably himself.

How difficult this moment is, how embarrassing it will be in the next moment.Xi Yang really wanted to turn his head and look at those bright eyes and smiling lips in this small and cramped space, or touch his head, or hold his hand, but what if he bumped into him? What should I do if it is a sad, lost, or angry look, do you want to explain?We're just doing it for you?Will he believe it?Use his innocence and kindness again to keep his weight in his heart, and continue to enjoy his admiration and admiration with peace of mind?

Xi Yang couldn't do it, and he thought Tu Ke probably couldn't do it either.

...

On the other side, Tu Ke was still racking his brains to play tricks, trying to blame himself: "Anyway, I didn't do it well. Zhou Tong didn't do anything wrong. He called the teacher to come to the office to inquire about the crime." , Is it a bit too serious and easy to expose."

Before coming here, Yao Hongwei was really in a hurry. Now he lost his temper, but his anger almost disappeared. When he came back to his senses, he felt that this was true. Dare to do it, if he sees something, it will be counterproductive.Seeing that he was sullen and silent, Tu Ke hurriedly hit the iron while the iron was hot: "I'll take you around? I will guide everyone in the work, and take a look at his study and life by the way. It doesn't seem deliberate, right?"

Yao Hongwei thought to himself that you would come up with an idea, so he gouged him out first, then sighed, he had no choice but to compromise: "This is not an example!"

...

The fragrance of tea leaves and the sweetness of peaches floated in the rising water vapor. After chatting a few irrelevant topics, Tu Ke and Yao Hongwei got up and left.The door closed with a "bang", and the room returned to silence. The two people under the table still maintained a motionless posture, and no one thought of fleeing first.

After a while, Xi Yang tried to open his mouth, but found that his throat was so dry that it was difficult to speak. He summoned up the courage to do something, and he felt that he had a responsibility and had to do something.But all of a sudden, Zhou Tong, who had been silent all this time, hugged him from behind, as if he was afraid of him leaving and unwilling to lose him, his actions were as decisive as those outside the fire scene, a little less Intense but more direct and unscrupulous.

Without warning, Xi Yang's eyes widened and his body froze, feeling that he was being hugged tighter and tighter, and the people behind him buried their faces in his shoulders.The chest was hot, the breath he exhaled was also hot, the back was pierced by a powerful heartbeat, and every fragile nerve was shaken one by one.That body seemed to be continuously sending heat to him, igniting a cluster of flames hidden somewhere, and then spreading.

He seemed to be wrapped in a ball of fire, and he was almost out of breath.

"Instructor..." Zhou Tong murmured suddenly: "Brother...can I...call you brother? I miss my brother so much."

Xi Yang did not respond.He who has experienced countless fire trials, who thought he would never be afraid again, but this time he didn't even have the courage to face it directly, or even to flee.

However, Zhou Tong didn't care: "Brother...thank you."

Thank you... us?

Xi Yang seemed to have guessed what he meant, and he couldn't believe it or be sure, but subconsciously wanted to hug the arms around his chest.

"I want to be a soldier, a firefighter, and I want to be admitted to a military academy..." Zhou Tong's voice was very soft and calm. "It turns out that I have always been so selfish and self-willed, only thinking about my own thoughts, and not understanding other people's feelings. I'm sorry, Uncle Yao entrusted me to you, and you must have worried a lot."

"Thank you for taking me in. I understand, I will try my best..."

"Try not to become a burden to you."

Did he... cry?Hearing Zhou Tong's words, Xi Yang's mind was in a daze, and the damp heat from the back of his neck also covered his eyes with a layer of mist, making his vision blurred.

"Let's go out." After saying this, Zhou Tong sniffed and let go of Xi Yang. "It's cold on the ground, instructor, your arms are so cold."

"Sorry, I was so rude."

When the body is separated, the cool air from the air conditioner takes advantage of it, and the surrounding temperature gradually drops.Xi Yang didn't speak all the time, but leaned slightly after getting out of the table, and stretched out a hand to Zhou Tong behind him.Zhou Tong held it without hesitation, stood up with strength, took two steps back and rubbed his eyes, and said calmly and a little embarrassed: "Instructor, I want to take back my previous request."

The atmosphere seemed less awkward than expected, Xi Yang supported the back of the chair, raised his eyes to look at Zhou Tong.

"About Wenyue." Zhou Tong explained. "I... want to respect his own choices."

Xi Yang was silent for a moment, and replied calmly as before: "Okay, I understand."

"Well. Then, I'll go back first." Zhou Tong sighed in relief, without the slightest procrastination, but free and easy, as if nothing had happened before, turned and walked out the door.

"Zhou Tong."

At the moment when he turned his back to him, Xi Yang stopped him in his heart, and said to him after he turned around: "I also take back what I said before."

"Huh?" Zhou Tong's eyes were slightly red, and the loss and sadness that hadn't been hidden in time were all captured.

"I said earlier that I hope you will develop in the direction of technical research." Xi Yang looked at him very calmly. "I take it back and respect your choice."

"I..." Do I still have the right to choose?Zhou Tong didn't quite understand what he meant.

But Xi Yang went on to say: "Starting from tomorrow, study, training, including police dispatch, follow me, and I will take you personally. I hope you can catch up with everyone as soon as possible, master the core content of the intervention team, and become a qualified firefighter." warrior."

The instructor's tone was serious yet gentle.Zhou Tong couldn't believe it, bit his lower lip unconsciously, trying to restrain the chaotic emotions and impulses in his heart, but the ups and downs of his chest had completely betrayed him, and his dim eyes had regained their luster.The light seemed to polish his pupils, and he could see the tenderness in the instructor's eyes.

"But I have already agreed to Deputy Yao's request, and I can't break my promise. So when you go to the police, you must." Xi Yang continued to tell him word by word, as if emphasizing it to himself.

"You must follow me every step of the way."

"Must live."
