slip through the net [criminal investigation]

Break up the meeting. "

Xie Lin grabbed Qin Yile and said, "Come back, don't leave, have you finished finishing the notes you were asked to write last time?"

Qin Yile frowned and complained incessantly. Since Lu Weiwei coerced and lured her into writing the [-]-word self-criticism last time, she never looked back on the paperwork of writing the report.

Ying Cheng was happy to put his own happiness above the pain of the interns, so he stared at Qin Yile with a smile and wrote the report, and found that this kid was really good at writing, not like him, the key words in his childhood It was just how to write the required number of words for the review, and suddenly lost interest, and hugged Jiang Huan's neck, intimately: "Let's go, it's time to get off work, I'll take you home first."

Jiang also nodded.

51. To you

Ying Cheng drove Jiang Huan all the way home. Jiang Huan was sitting in the co-pilot, looking out of the window with his head propped up, letting the cool breeze blow towards his face, blowing into his hair that hadn't been trimmed for a long time. In his eyes, he couldn't help but keep blinking, his face seemed to be frozen by a glacier, and what was frozen underneath was the courage and enthusiasm that kept going forward and refused to look back.

The green light jumped, Ying Cheng stopped the car, glanced to the side, and saw a warmly decorated cake shop, and then realized today's date——September [-]st.

Once upon a certain day, he gave Jiang Huan an anniversary.He remembered Jiang Huan's words again, the hands who wanted to buy cakes stopped in such embarrassment.

The red light lasted for a long time, and the eerie silence slowly fermented in the minute time. At the moment when the yellow light came on, Ying Cheng was ready to speak, but just as he was about to speak, Jiang Huan preempted him.

"Thank you."

He said "hmm": "Suddenly, thank you?"

"You took me in and I took care of you. It's always been a matter of course. It seems that I have never formally said thank you. I also know how dangerous tomorrow is. I'm afraid that if I don't say it this time, I won't have a chance in the future."

Encountering the evening rush hour ahead, the red lights were so jam-packed that you couldn't see the end at a glance, Ying Cheng made a quick decision and turned the steering wheel, turned directly into the small road, and walked through the narrow alleyway: "Are you afraid? Now that you have time to exit, no one will blame you you."

He shook his head: "No. I've never been afraid."

Unexpectedly, coming out of the small road, the main road was still in a mess. Ying Cheng got stuck in the driveway for a while, and the surrounding horns blared loudly. On a sudden whim, he turned the car around: "By the way, I'll take you to a place , let's go out to eat tonight."

"Where?"

"You'll know when you go."

So he silently watched the scene outside the window quickly receding, gradually transitioning from the brightly lit city to the mottled old rainy alley, and the cram school enrollment advertisements were pasted all over the wall, kindly covering the peeling wall ash on the white wall, The old walls are covered with verdant creepers, born every year, every year, interpreting the dryness and prosperity of this old alley stagnant in the depths of time. The oil stains and silt have been frozen in time for years, and to this day, they are still the postcard in memory.

Finally arrived at the destination, Ying Cheng got out of the car and said with a smile: "This place really hasn't changed at all."

Jiang was still looking at the poor-quality copper-plated characters - "Lancheng City No. [-] Senior High School", his palms suddenly sweated, and some fragments entered his brain like a slideshow, so that the corners of his lips pursed slightly.

Dust-laden memories are like an opened Pandora's box, spewing out continuously, and all the pictures that he had deliberately concealed quietly appear on the paper.

He once saw a boy quarreling with a senior because of a rebound, his blue and white school uniform was drenched with sweat, and the ground was covered with black soot, he once saw the boy sleeping in class and taking exams, in a bedroom separated by a wall However, the uplifting music of the video game sounded until dawn all night. I also saw the young man with a bright smile, stopped him by the neck, rushed to the cafeteria to jump in line to eat, and then sat across the table, putting sweet milk on his dinner plate.

So clear, so joyful, but unconsciously, so many years have passed.

It's not beautiful, and it's not all positive, but it's all the photos he took with a click when his heart was beating, secretly hidden in every tiny alveoli, and secretly flipping through them with his breath in those dark and cold nights.

He buried all the heartbeats of his youth in this campus.But Ying Cheng went around and around, and brought him to the tombstone of his youth.

"I graduated here. I didn't expect that after so many years, the development of Lancheng is like taking a plane. I thought the whole Lancheng should be renovated, but here, it has not changed at all."

An old man selling beef noodles came out of a greasy and dark small shop next to him. Hearing this, he laughed and said, "It's going to change, it's going to change. The new campus will be built next year, and when the students move there, This place will be abandoned."

Ying Cheng greeted enthusiastically, "Uncle Niu!" After speaking, he introduced to Jiang Huan: "This is Uncle Niu, his beef noodles are the best in the world. I guarantee that apart from him, you won't find the first place in Lancheng." The second family tastes better than him."

The uncle laughed even more when he heard this: "As soon as I heard it, I graduated from a high school!"

"Uncle Niu, don't you remember me? I was the little bastard who had the most trouble back then."

The uncle squinted his eyes and looked carefully, but he still didn't remember it, so Ying Cheng had no choice but to add: "The one whose surname is Ying."

"It's you! Ying Cheng, right? I remember! It's you boy, the fight smashed my store! I have opened an old store for more than 30 years, and I renovated it for you! How are you, boy, Now you're messing around like a dog, I thought you'd gotten into the game early."

Ying Cheng chuckled: "I'm really in the bureau now, but I'm the one responsible for sending people in."

"Yo? Became a policeman? I can handle you!"

Ying Cheng just smiled and said nothing, while Uncle Niu looked at Jiang Huan beside him, and said, "Are you the kid who hung out with him all those years ago?"

After talking about something, he suddenly felt that something was wrong, and looked awkwardly at Ying Cheng, who had a cold expression, and muttered: "I'm so stupid, I forgot, forgot..."

He forgot that the child who was always inseparable from Ying Cheng was gone long ago.

"By the way, didn't you become a policeman? The child's matter...has been found out?"

Ying Cheng shook his head, Uncle Niu immediately understood, and changed the subject: "Come on, come on, haven't you eaten yet? I'll treat you to this meal. Your Uncle Niu is still your Uncle Niu. After more than ten years, the craftsmanship is not bad. Come in quickly. Try it."

Only then did he drag Jiang into the dark and small shop together, and whispered, "Uncle Niu is a good man. He sells the cheap ones in the first place, and the food is full of meat. If there are really students who are so poor that they can't afford to eat , or for other reasons without money to pay the bill, as long as you give him a sign, he will secretly give you a free bill, which is well-known here.

At that time, there were a lot of gangsters here, harassing girls, and even robbing them. One day, they robbed Jing Yu. He asked them for justice, and asked them out to fight the next day. Unexpectedly, they smashed up Uncle Niu's shop. As soon as Uncle Niu called the police, they all ran away, and I was the only one involved.

Later, my dad came to pick me up and almost beat me to death. Fortunately, Uncle Niu and Jing Yu excused me in time, otherwise I would not be able to clean up by jumping into the Yellow River. "

Jiang recalled the past and couldn't laugh or cry.

"At that time, I was really reckless. There were more than a dozen guys with me. In order to show the limelight, I took Jing Yu alone. In the end, I was beaten so hard that I ran away with my head in my arms, and Jing Yu, a thin-skinned and tender-looking man with me, was hurt. One piece was beaten, that kid is a son of your family, and one piece will turn blue when touched. As for me, my skin is solid, and I don’t feel pain when my dad beats me like that. In the end, what a guy, my mother loves him so much. Dare I have rough skin and thick flesh , not worthy."

He finally snorted and laughed: "Later, you pissed him off for two weeks, ran to hide his homework as a prank, and ended up being beaten by your father again."

"how do you know?"

"Your mother told me that when she came to see you last time. To be honest, if she hadn't said that you would be in high school, I would have thought you were a primary school student. Who would hide homework books when you are ten years old?" matter, damage or not, you."

Ying Cheng sucked his teeth and gritted his teeth: "How much did my mother tell you about me?"

Is it something a mother can do?

"There are quite a lot. I heard all the embarrassing things about you when you wore crotch pants."

Uncle Niu happened to serve two bowls of noodles, and Ying put them forward in a pile: "Okay, don't talk, hurry up and eat noodles."

Can we still talk today.

"Your mother also said that with the way you fought so desperately back then, she thought that when you grow up, you might be the one who will cause trouble, but it didn't occur to you that your son has inherited his father's career and became a policeman."

"I... have been a crooked seedling since it first sprouted, crooked, and accidentally fell into the gutter.

It was Jing Yu, who led and dragged me, and set me right bit by bit. After walking for so many years, she forced me to become a policeman. "

When Jing Yu was alive, he was a straight and upright pole. His crooked seedling grew up watching his back and growing up by his integrity throughout his youth.

After Jing Yu died, his time was stuck in darkness. Jing Yu was the only light in that boundless darkness. He chased the light all the way. Although he could not catch up with him, he never lost his way.

Jiang Huan's heart twitched violently, making it even more uncomfortable, so he could only quickly lower his head to eat the noodles, and took the opportunity to praise "delicious".

"After dinner, go for a walk around the school?"

He was taken aback: "What are you going to school for?"

"I didn't hear Uncle Niu say
