After becoming the group pet of the Public Procuratorate

Her tone gradually became excited, as if showing off her intelligence.

"I got up early the next day and followed him quietly along the way. I saw him and Zhao Dan meeting each other at the Seven Star Field, hugging each other, and doing many ambiguous gestures. The two of them were holding hands, and I wore I didn't make a sound while wearing my hat, and followed them not far away. They separated after a short walk. Just when I was about to confront that scumbag, I discovered a shocking secret of Zhao Dan in the blink of an eye.

"After she separated from my ex-boyfriend, I saw Zhao Dan standing alone in the square, as if waiting for someone. About 2 minutes later, a luxury car stopped by the side of the road, and a greasy middle-aged man stepped out of the car. He got out of the car in the back row, and kissed Zhao Dan directly without saying a word. The man was not as tall as Zhao Dan, and he was a little bald, with a big belly, and there was nothing outstanding about his whole body except money.

"In order to find out their relationship, I inquired about Zhao Dan several times at school. Sure enough, this man ate from the bowl, looked at the pot, and stepped on two boats. Between this old man and me The back and forth between ex-boyfriends is disgusting.

I said where did the two of them get the funds to go to such a high-end business district as Qixingchang to spend, and it turned out that it was all paid by the middle-aged man who took care of Zhao Dan. "

This description is vivid, like playing a movie.

Hearing the appearance of this middle-aged man, Bai Ming seems to have seen it somewhere. Although He Yan's description is relatively general, he can still vaguely feel this familiar outline, and there is only one person who fits this image in his mind. "Is this person Xu Teng?"

He Yan narrowed her eyes and asked suspiciously, "Who is Xu Teng?"

Bai Ming continued: "He is the chairman of Fumao Group."

Once this layer of identity was revealed, He Yan slammed the table and responded repeatedly: "Yes! That's right! It's him!"

Lu Wu looked at the excited two people in front of him, confused, and asked with a side face: "Do you know the little assistant?"

"It's not acquaintance." Bai Ming raised his head and looked at him, "Lin Jiang took me to meet once."

Lu Wu was a little surprised, and looked away, "You really have a lot of fields involved."

He Yan continued: "I ran into him a few times later, I don't know his name, but everyone around him said he was Fu Mao's boss.

It's just that I didn't expect Zhao Dan to be killed not long after his happy days. Sure enough, people are doing what the sky is watching, and it's all karma. "

"Be kind with your mouth." Lu Wu stared at her, and retorted forcefully.

He Yan avoided the harsh gaze and snorted briefly, as if she didn't regret what she said, but after being criticized, she restrained herself a bit and didn't contradict her.

The atmosphere was freezing at this moment, and everyone was waiting for the other to speak.

"Then do you hate Zhao Dan?" Bai Ming asked lightly, breaking through the silent embarrassment.

"I don't hate her, I just hate her." He Yan seemed indifferent and rolled her eyes, "Although I hate her, I really have to say thank you to her, she let me see the true face of my ex, let me know her The same kind of people as my predecessor."

After finishing speaking, she raised her head again, looked at the two people in front of her, and forced a smile: "However, I am not much better. Although I have become a couple with that scumbag, I have always pretended to be other men in my heart." .”

The room fell into silence again. Bai Ming looked at He Yan's decisive eyes and swallowed hard as if he had broken his teeth. He glanced at Lu Wu again, only to see that the policeman lowered his head and refused to look directly.

Holding the pen, Bai Ming drew circles one after another on the paper. When a circle became pitch black, he moved the pen to another place and continued to draw. The purpose of drawing circles was not to kill time, but to prove his thinking.

If Zhao Dan is really like what He Yan said, why did Wei Feng kill her, and what is the connection between Zhao Dan and Liu Ying? These difficult questions made him feel confused.

This questioning lasted only 10 minutes, when there was the sound of hurried footsteps in the corridor. Pushed the door open, broke in.

Wang Qian leaned on the door frame with her hand, she bent down, covered her heart, out of breath, looked around for a week, scanned everyone, and said quickly: "Brother, Wei, Wei Feng, he is hospitalized! "

Lu Wu stood up suddenly, and the stool fell down, and asked with a face full of shock: "What did you say?"

"Just now the prison came to report that Wei Feng's pulmonary heart disease had suddenly relapsed, and the prison guards had no time to report to the higher-ups, so they had chosen to release him on medical parole and sent him to Jiang'an Hospital for emergency treatment."

After listening to Wang Qian's words, Lu Wu's momentum was like a thunderbolt. He stepped over the fallen bench and walked like flying.

Feeling the urgency of the situation, Bai Ming took a deep breath, quickly lifted up his chair, packed up the notes on the table, and said, "He Yan, you should go back first, if there is still something to ask, we will contact you again , Be careful on the way back.”

After speaking, he was about to leave when he took two steps, but was stopped by He Yan.

He froze in place, not knowing what He Yan's intention was.

There was no one else in the house, a strong wind seeped in from the corridor, the double hinges shook slightly, and the door creaked instantly.

"Bai Ming, when did you meet Army Lu?"

He Yan's eyes were slightly empty, her tone was flat, and she looked as if she had returned to the coffee shop again. The hand was lying in the air, and the soft look just now had dissipated with the wind.

"I only knew him for one summer."

Bai Ming replied lightly, then walked around and left.

At [-] o'clock in the afternoon, the evening sky appeared in Jiangzhou, and the dark clouds outside the window, a muffled thunder exploded in the clouds, waving lightning like a whip, fiercely whipping towards the city.

The incandescent lamp lights up the entire public security building. Through the glass of the promenade, Bai Ming can clearly see his own reflection reflected in the window glass. After a few bouts of thunder, the torrential rain falls straight down, and his heart also follows. Jumping violently in the face of this bad weather, it seems that there will be unexpected events.

The so-called one autumn rain and one cold, he deeply understands that after this heavy rain, the residual heat of summer heat will be washed away, and the real autumn will come.

He came outside the office of the detachment leader on the second floor, and before he got close, he could hear Lu Wu anxiously making a phone call. The tone of his voice should be confirming Wei Feng's condition. Just like Lu Wu, he was also anxious Extremely, before the case is thoroughly investigated, the death of anyone is unacceptable.

The police and the court put too much effort into this case, and everyone knew how difficult the process was. Bai Ming didn't want his efforts to end up being fruitless.

He desperately hoped that the truth would come sooner, at least faster than the serious illness.

Standing at the door, Wang Qian shook her head when she saw Bai Ming approaching, signaling him not to go in and disturb him now.

Bai Ming was naturally savvy, he stopped outside the door, and in order to investigate carefully, he asked, "Officer Wang, why did Wei Feng contract pulmonary heart disease?"

"You don't know?" Wang Qian was dumbfounded. She thought that Bai Ming had been thoroughly investigating the case, so she must know about it.

The brightness of the incandescent lamp was unstable, and the lightning outside the window flickered on and off, and the shadows of the two also appeared and disappeared on the wall.

Bai Ming recalled that when he talked with Wei Feng in Jiangcheng Prison, he could always hear coughing. At that time, he didn't pay attention to it. He thought it was caused by smoking all the time, or contracted pneumonia due to the humid weather. Chronic terminal illness related to the heart.

He said: "I only know that when Wei Feng was arrested and Teacher Zheng decided the case, he was sentenced to death with a reprieve considering that he had been sick for many years, but I thought that since they were all in prison, his illness might also be treated. alright."

Wang Qian let out a long sigh, "Wei Feng's disease is chronic, it will flare up from time to time, and it can't be cured for life."

It turned out that this unexpected situation was completely unexpected by everyone.

Bai Ming asked again: "Did he catch the disease since he was a child?"

Wang Qian rested her chin, thought for a moment, and replied: "Ever since my brother arrested him five years ago, he was found to have this disease. Later, when Judge Zheng tried, Wei Feng fell ill for the first time in the trial court. He stayed in the hospital for more than half a year, and the trial was temporarily suspended. The doctor said that he had it since he was a child, but he rarely suffered from illnesses. Now as he grows older, the frequency of illnesses is getting higher and higher. It was not until the year before last that he was sentenced to death with a reprieve."

If we don't consider Wei Feng's crimes and the people he killed, it's only from a humanitarian point of view, Bai Ming has a little sympathy for this. After all, it is very tormenting to be plagued by illness since childhood, and he has seizures from time to time. His headache made him feel the pain deeply.

He continued to ask: "What did the prison say about the situation today?"

Wang Qian paused, and then told him all the details.

"You know, felons of Wei Feng's level stay in a room alone. The prison guard said that he was on patrol when he heard a sound of falling to the ground. Following the sound, he saw Wei Feng face up, his face flushed. His facial features were distorted, his eyeballs were about to pop out, blood was spitting at the corner of his mouth, and he was pinching his neck with both hands, as if he couldn't breathe, his body convulsed and trembled on the ground.

"The prison guards were terrified, so they hurriedly found an internal doctor to deal with him. The doctor temporarily administered medicine to Wei Feng, which relieved his symptoms. Then he quickly applied for medical parole and pushed him away."

This description alone already made Bai Ming tremble with fear.

Flashes of lightning, like scabs in the sky, split from Bai Ming's bright eyes all the way to his heart, and there was another burst of thunder outside the window.He took a deep breath, trying to calm down his emotions.

Fog gradually rises, and weaves into cloth belonging to Qingqiu, but the fibers are ruthlessly torn by wind and rain before they are laid.

Lu Wu hung up the landline phone in the office and walked out the door. Seeing the two people standing at the door stupidly, both of them looked at a loss, so he lowered his head and comforted him: "Don't panic, the hospital is already doing its best to rescue the problem. Not big."

Bai Ming knew that although he spoke calmly, his heart was just like his own, anxious and restless.

"Don't spread this to the outside world beforehand, wait until there are results." Lu Wu instructed again.

Although Wang Qian nodded, she was still full of worries, "But people in the prison and other detachments already know about this, so I'm worried that they will go out..."

"No." Lu Wu interrupted her confidently, "They are all professionally trained policemen, and they won't do things so recklessly."

The sky was gloomy, mixed with wind, rain, thunder and lightning.

Bai Ming bit his lower lip tightly, the weather was just like his mood at the moment.

42: Housewarming

A heavy rain sent away the heat of summer, the dawn was just dawning, the sky was fine and cool with autumn.

In a blink of an eye, the vacation that Zheng Ye gave Bai Ming had come to an end, which forced him to suspend his case on Canglan Road and return to the court again.

With a beating heart restless, he stepped into his own office again.

I haven't seen Zheng Ye for a whole month. He still looks the same, sitting in front of the mahogany table, processing the classified documents. The only difference is that his hair seems to have added a few strands of white.

Zheng Ye raised his head, with countless contempt on his face, and his drooping cheeks were extremely displeased, as if he would lose his life if he smiled, and said in a strange way: "I thought I didn't have an assistant anymore."

Bai Ming was already used to his attitude, put down the backpack in his hand, laughed dryly, and said, "Once you have it, you have it again."

Zheng Ye lowered his eyes and asked in a cold voice: "How have you handled this period of time? How is the progress?"

If he said "smooth", Bai Ming didn't find anything. If he said "not smooth", the case made some progress. He thought it over and gave a more conservative reply, "It's, it's okay."

"It's okay?" Zheng Ye glanced at him, obviously not satisfied with the answer, "It's okay, is it okay or not?"

This sanctimonious expression made Bai Ming's heart sink, he sighed secretly, and said in a low voice: "I found some, but I can't get it right."

Zheng Ye asked, "What did you find?"

Bai Ming recalled that the teacher in front of him was also a graduate of the People's Public Security University. He was a senior brother of Lu Wu and others, but he changed his career from the police. Although he is now a criminal judge, he still has a background in the police, so he thought Zheng Ye must have his own thoughts on this case.

He took out his notebook from his backpack and opened the records he had made. He just took advantage of the opportunity to report to Zheng Ye, and he could also sort out the clues he had found so far.

Looking at the notes written here and there, Bai Ming cleared his throat and began to report.

"At present, there are three cases in Jiangzhou. They are the Canglan Road case five years ago, the Changchun Road hostage-taking case this summer, and the rental house hiding corpse case. A total of four people were killed. The four murders all happened five years ago. The bodies of the three victims in the Canglan Road case were found in the sewer the next day, and the murderer was definitely Wei Feng.

"The fourth murder case was discovered in a rental house on Changchun Road in midsummer this year. The murderer is currently unknown, but Wei Feng's fingerprints were found in the ventilation duct where the corpse was hidden, but Wei Feng refused to admit it.

"The hostage-taking case also happened on Changchun Road in early summer. The criminal is still Wei Feng who escaped from prison. The motive is unknown. According to Wei Feng, Wei Feng denied that he killed people at random five years ago, but with a purpose. Planned to kill, motive remains unknown.

"Wei Feng himself suffered from chronic pulmonary heart disease more than ten years ago, referred to as cor pulmonale for short. After Wei Feng committed the crime and was arrested, he committed the disease twice. The first time was during the trial process. Due to his physical condition, the trial was delayed for a time, and the final trial result was that the execution of the death sentence was suspended. The second time was a few days ago. At present, Wei Feng has been rescued and is currently being treated in Jiang'an Hospital."

Bringing up the murderer of this case, Bai Ming couldn't help but pause, and threw out the question in his heart, "Teacher, I want to know that Wei Feng has committed a heinous crime, why did you sentence him to death with a reprieve? Just because he was seriously ill, can he escape the catastrophe?" ?”

After Zheng Ye heard this question, he was taken aback for a moment, and then immediately said: "It's fine if the outside world thinks so, but you also think so?"

Bai Ming was stopped by the question.

Zheng Ye was not irritated by this question, instead he was calm and calm, and then said: "Illness is never a statutory reason for lenient or mitigated punishment, nor is it a discretionary punishment. Even if the criminal is a terminally ill patient, he cannot escape. The sanction of the law was because of his active cooperation and clear confession, and it took only a few months for the police to close the case, so I sentenced him to a death sentence with a reprieve.

After that, he raised his eyes to look at Bai Ming, his eyes were like sharp swords out of their scabbards, "What? You disagree?"

Bai Ming pursed his lips and did not speak. In his eyes, even killing three innocent passers-by would be sentenced to death and executed immediately. The reprieve is just a chance for the murderer to be reborn. Wash away these sins.

He didn't linger too much on this issue, swallowed, moistened his throat, and continued talking.

"After the case was reopened, Police Officer Lu proposed to start with the deceased, so we first investigated the identities of the three deceased on Canglan Road. They were all students of Jiangzhou University. They did not know each other and had no direct connection with each other. The three were ranked No. [-], No. [-], and No. [-] according to the time they were killed. They were named Zhao Dan, He Qing, and Liu Ying. They were all women, and their native places were Jiangzhou City, Yangjing City, and Jiangzhou City.

"The third person killed, Liu Ying, was a freshman in the Department of Architecture. He had excellent grades in school. He had obtained the internship qualification for the Canglan Road project of Fumao Group. He was also the owner of the unfinished building on Canglan Road, oh no, Changchun Road. designer.

The No. 1 Zhao Dan who was killed was a master student in the Chinese Department. She, she was well-connected and well-known, and she was quite famous in the Chinese Department...

"Afterwards, Police Officer Zhou, the head of the criminal investigation team of the Huai'an Branch, investigated the body of the rental house. After the forensic identification of gender, age, height, weight and other appearance characteristics, it can be basically concluded that the deceased was a woman named Qin Wei. The deceased's native place was Yang. A native of Dongfeng County under Beijing, who was in charge of reception at the front desk of the hotel in front of Jiangzhou Railway Station, disappeared suddenly five years ago, and his whereabouts have been unknown, until his body was discovered.”

Speaking of this, Bai Ming's tongue was dry, so he swallowed, and after a pause for a few seconds, he smiled embarrassedly: "As for the hostage-taking case on Changchun Road, I don't think the victim needs to say more."

Zheng Ye glanced at him contemptuously, but was not amused by him, his face was still tense, unable to read anything, "What about the No.2 victim of the Canglan Road Case?"

"No.2? He Qing?" Bai Ming clasped his palms together, his arms naturally dropped in front of him, his right hand clasped the palm of his left hand, scratching dryly, his face was a little ugly, "I haven't found it yet."

Bai Ming lowered his head, not knowing how Zheng Ye would answer, whether he would criticize him, or reward him with a look of disgust, he calmed down and stood aside, no matter what the result was, he could accept it humbly, after all, he was an assistant , is a student, and even a junior, although Zheng Ye has a weird temper and is moody, but he still upholds the respect of Cheng Men Lixue, gentle and humble.

After waiting for a long time, I only waited for Zheng Ye to say "Oh".

This completely different reaction came out of Bai Ming's expectation. He was puzzled, and slowly raised his head, only to see that Zheng Ye had no intention of looking at him, his eyes were all on the trial files.

"Since you're back in court, do your job well." Zheng Ye's cold voice was like frost, and he patted the file next to him lightly, "These are recent cases. Write a report and hand it to me before get off work."

The hill-like dossiers were placed horizontally on Zheng Ye's table. Although there were a lot of them, Bai Ming was able to handle them with ease. He replied immediately: "Okay, I'll give it to you before lunch."

Without raising his head, Zheng Ye said, "Who said there are only these on the table? I still have them under my feet."

Surprised, Bai Ming walked around the table and squinted down. He saw that beside Zheng Ye's feet, the files had piled up on the floor like a wave. It turned out that the table could not fit, so Zheng Ye temporarily put them on the floor. on the ground.

He was dumbfounded, his nerves seemed to be frozen into ice, and he froze in place. He really couldn't figure out why there were so many cases.

Zheng Ye knew Bai Ming's reaction without looking at it. With his left hand, he randomly took out a file from the file, glanced at the case name, and in order to save him a certain amount of work, he explained to Bai Ming in detail, "This person, in Jiangzhou Hong Kong smuggled foreign soybeans by circumventing customs, trying to escape customs supervision, making huge profits, and evading millions of dollars in taxes."

He took out the second document, glanced at it again, and said again: "This person, who was married and had children in his hometown before, came to Jiangzhou to work last year, and married a new woman he met again. We lived together and had a baby."

Zheng Ye took out the third copy in order, and it seemed that he memorized each one by heart, "This person, who has nothing to do, takes advantage of his work to peek at other people's love letters, and burn them after reading them. Later, I found out that I was sued."

Smuggling, bigamy, violation of freedom of communication.

Hearing Zheng Ye's analysis, Bai Ming realized that there are so many criminal cases in Jiangzhou every day, and the cases accepted by Huai'an District alone are complicated and messy.

Zheng Ye stopped talking, and instead said: "If I read it all to you, how long will it take? I'll just give you three simple examples, and you can take the rest and read it carefully."

Bai Ming picked up the files from the ground, the files in his arms were already higher than his eyesight, he moved the things to his desk, just looking at the miscellaneous files, he started to have a headache, within five or six hours, this The report is endless.

He took a deep breath, pumped up his heart, then turned on the computer and started typing on the keyboard.

A few hours later, the sun had moved overhead, and there was no sound in the room except for pens dropping paper and keyboards being tapped.

Seeing Bai Ming working hard all morning, Zheng Ye suddenly said, "By the way, there is a case going to court in a few days, do you want to go?"

This was the first time that Bai Ming had heard Zheng Ye ask for his opinion since he joined the job. In the past, no matter what task he was doing, Zheng Ye had ordered him to do so. This time, Bai Ming was taken aback and didn't answer right away.

The shock was only for a moment, and what followed was the joy that filled my heart.

Appearing in court was his dream.

Since Bai Ming came to the court, he has never participated in a court trial. He knows that his qualifications and strength are not mature enough, so he has never been arranged to appear in the court. Besides, he is not required to participate in the courtroom as a judge's assistant. However, this time Zheng Ye took the initiative to provide him with a chance, he could hardly believe it.

Bai Ming's body trembled slightly, suppressing the excitement in his heart, pretending to be calm, and asked cautiously: "Yes, which case is it?"

Zheng Ye took out the document from the table, threw it at Bai Ming, and said, "This."

The document landed steadily in front of Bai Ming like a flying white dove, bringing a brief cool breeze.

Holding the document in both hands, Bai Ming read out the name Zheng Ye scribbled on the cover: "Illegal intrusion in the mahjong case?"

Zheng Ye glanced proudly, and said: "This person played mahjong with others, didn't bring any money, and lost in a mess. Then he borrowed some money, but he never paid it back. So the creditor led a few people, broke into his house privately, and returned the money." He was slightly wounded."

Bai Ming blinked, and asked brightly, "Can I really appear in court?"

Zheng Ye said coldly: "Have you always wanted to stick to the position of assistant?"

How can it be?

Bai Ming shook his head frequently, and a warm smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. He understood that Zheng Ye's face was cold but his heart was warm, so he hurriedly said, "Then, am I going to be a judge?"

Zheng Ye rolled his eyes at him, "You are too young to be a judge, why not become a clerk."

A clerk, that's not as good as a judge's assistant, it's a downgrade.

Bai Ming's face was slightly disappointed, and his whole body was exhausted.

Zheng Ye said again: "I know what you are thinking. If it is in the middle and high courts, it is really not good to be an assistant to a clerk, but we are a basic court. Your assistant position is still reserved, but you will be more responsible for this position. It's just a clerk, if you do well, it is possible for me to become a judge or even a judge in the future."

It turned out to be a promotion in disguise!

After these words were explained, Bai Ming's face changed from cloudy to sunny. In his eyes, promotion was an unattainable thing. He didn't even dare to dream about it. work, he is extremely willing to do it.

After all, just appearing in court was enough for him to be happy for a long time.

"Our hospital just needs a clerk. If you don't want to do it, I can find another one." Seeing Bai Ming's happy expression, Zheng Ye deliberately said, "I heard that you have behaved in the public security office for more than a month. Well done, especially the transcript is pretty good."

Bai Ming raised his eyes and asked in astonishment, "Did Officer Lu tell you that?"

"Otherwise? Otherwise, why would I let you be a clerk?" Zheng Ye asked back, with a light snort, "He praised you for being so good."

It was only then that Bai Ming realized that it was no wonder that Zheng Ye had no response after he had told the case of the investigation just now. It turned out that Lu Wu had already called him secretly, and he just asked himself to tell him again just to test himself.

"What did Officer Lu tell you?" He opened his mouth halfway, expecting what Zheng Ye would say next.

Zheng Ye said impatiently: "In short, it's just a compliment. As for how to boast, I forgot. Closer to home, if you agree to work part-time, I will make a note for you. If you perform well in the illegal intrusion case , I will let you serve as the clerk of this court and my own judge's assistant in the future."

Bai Ming is very grateful for the double approval of Zheng Ye and Lu Wu.

Thinking of such a good thing, Bai Ming immediately cheered up and continued to turn on the computer. His hands continued to dance between the keyboards, and every word he typed showed his passion for work.

Zheng Ye put down the pen in his hand, looked at the dedicated Bai Ming not far away, and thought to himself, it seems that the young assistant he recruited is really a good candidate, although it is not as vivid as Lu Wu's description, but just being diligent and optimistic, it is enough. He won Zheng Ye's heart.

From the corner of Bai Ming's eyes, he vaguely felt that Zheng Ye was looking up at him, so he turned his head, his eyes confused, and asked, "Teacher, what's wrong?"

Zheng Ye came to his senses and held up the pen in his hand, "It's nothing, I was just thinking, why don't you find a professional clerk to learn and listen to experience and suggestions."

This is a wonderful idea, Bai Ming's eyes lit up like two diamonds in the sun, "A professional clerk?"

Zheng Ye wiped his presbyopic glasses, and said again: "I used to have a special clerk, and then I was transferred from here to the City Procuratorate. You go to the City Procuratorate in the afternoon. I will call her and ask her to teach in person. you."

Bai Ming was taken aback, and almost shouted excitedly: "I'll go after I finish these reports!"

"Don't do it now, the court session is coming soon, you go to learn first, and it's not too late to do it after you finish your studies." Zheng Ye put on those glasses, and his tone returned to ice-cold.

Bai Ming complied, sorted out the documents, and turned off the computer. Seeing Zheng Ye was thinking about something, he didn't dare to disturb him. He packed up in a hurry, picked up his backpack and set off towards the city procuratorate.

Before going out, Zheng Ye yelled, "When you got here, you said you wanted to find Qiao Xue."

Qiao Xue...

Since this person used to be Zheng Ye's exclusive clerk, but now he has been transferred to the Municipal Procuratorate, Bai Ming thought to himself, this person must be extremely good, otherwise he would not have entered the city from the district level, and he was transferred from the busy Huai'an Court The City Prosecutor's Office that everyone yearns for.

Bai Ming read it silently three times in his mind, and firmly remembered the name.

43. Bus

But as soon as he left the gate of the court, a gust of sultry autumn heat came with the wind. Bai Ming took a deep breath. Although the summer was exhausted by the ebb and flow of the tide, the temperature had also dropped, but what followed was The water vapor filling the mouth and nose, the whole city is unbearably humid, making the chest tight and short of breath.

The sidewalks on both sides of the road are like a piece of sticky dough, and the shoes stick to it badly. In order to get to the city procuratorate earlier and learn the knowledge of being a clerk earlier, Bai Ming decided to take a bus and rush there as soon as possible.

He had taken the bus to the City Procuratorate before. At that time, Qian Heng wanted to transfer him to the City Procuratorate, and he almost lost his job because of it. The mood was different from that day. Because of his promotion, he felt very comfortable today. .

Coincidentally, as soon as Bai Ming arrived at the platform, he saw the No. 256 bus slowly approaching from a distant road. The huge carriage, like a clumsy reptile, stopped steadily at the bus platform.

He walked up from the front door. He just forgot to bring his public transport card today, so he took out two one-yuan coins and handed them into the coin box one after another. He only heard two crisp landing sounds, and the coins sank into the bottom of the box before he went into the compartment. go.

Perhaps there were not many people in the car at noon. Bai Ming looked in and saw that there was only an elderly man and a young mother and daughter in the car. The daughter looked about 5 years old. They were far away from each other. Sitting in the front of the carriage, the mother and daughter sat in the middle.

The sun is scorching, half of the carriage is sunny and half is cloudy.Bai Ming chose the last row in the shade on the right side. This place is the most bumpy. Others would not like it, but Bai Ming is contrary to ordinary people. He is very happy to sit in this position. It is like the rocking horse he sat on when he was a child. It is extremely interesting. .

The distance is not far, and it is not close. It takes more than 20 minutes to arrive. Bai Ming took out his cheap earphones and was about to put them on when he suddenly received a call. Looking carefully, the caller was actually Qian Heng. , he temporarily put away the headset and picked up the phone.

Qian Heng's voice was as clear as a stream passing over a stone, bright and pleasant, "Assistant Bai, I heard from Qiao Xue that Judge Zheng wants you to come to the procuratorate this afternoon to learn how to take court records?"

Bai Ming was taken aback by this straight-to-the-point statement. Studying is a trivial matter. He didn't want to alarm too many people, but it was obvious that Qian Heng had already heard about it. He said helplessly, "That's right, is Section Chief Qian looking for me?"

The other end of the phone said again: "It's okay, just to confirm with you, how did you come here? Have you eaten lunch?"

"There is a direct bus, and I've already taken it..." As he spoke, his stomach suddenly convulsed, his bowel rumbled, and the signal of hunger triggered his brain, and his body protested. Fortunately, the noise of the bus was very loud. The other people are sitting far away, so he doesn't have to be too embarrassed, "I haven't eaten lunch yet."

Qian Heng thought for a while, and then said: "It just so happens that I bought something here, which is just right for lunch, and Qiao Xue is here, so the three of us can eat together."

Bai Ming didn't want to cause trouble for them, so he stammered and replied: "No, no need, thank you section chief for your kindness, I can solve it myself."

"It's okay, we'll wait for you." Qian Heng hung up the phone as soon as he finished speaking.

Qian Heng's style of not leaving others a chance has always been like this, and Bai Ming has gotten used to it, this is not the first time he has been hung up on the phone, and he also slowly took down the phone, speechless.

The cool wind seeped into the car from the gap in the window, Bai Ming took out the entangled earphone cable again, he patiently untied it, and stuffed it into his ear, the music just played, the car came to the next stop.

Except for a high school student coming up, the people in the car have not changed. The boy is wearing a school uniform, wearing a cap on his head, carrying a huge schoolbag in his hand, and chewing a piece of bubble gum in his mouth, blowing out from time to time A pink bubble, he sat in the middle of the car with a grumpy face, his expression was very cold, like a self-proclaimed unique personality at this age.

Even in terms of behavior, he was different from others. He chose a location far away from everyone, sitting alone in the sun, and even crossed his legs to admire the faded scenery outside the car window.

The golden sun hit the high school student's hair, shining brightly.

The temperature outside kept rising, but the child was wearing long-sleeved trousers without showing any skin. Although Bai Ming was surprised, he didn't think too much about it.

It seems that everything is going on as usual, and there is nothing wrong.

The music flowed through Bai Ming's ears like flowing water, but it stopped abruptly in a comfortable and leisurely way. Bai Ming knew that this was another call, so he didn't need to think too much, the person was probably still Qian Heng.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, he can also decline Qian Heng's hospitality.

But when Bai Ming lowered his head, he realized that he had guessed wrong. What appeared on the phone screen was a series of unfamiliar numbers. He looked at these numbers and felt a little confused. He lightly pressed the answer button and said, "Hi, Hello."

The other party did not answer.

Perhaps there were too many noises, so Bai Ming turned up the volume button, plugged in the earphones tightly, and said again: "Hello?"

There was still a silence.

"It should be a wrong number." He said to himself, and hung up the phone by the way.

This sudden scene made him lose the mood to continue listening to the song, so he unplugged his earphones and put them back in his pocket.

But half a minute later, that string of unfamiliar numbers called again. Since the volume button was not turned back, the ringing rang throughout the car. Bai Ming was startled, and hurriedly turned down the volume. Turning his head to the mother and daughter, he squeezed out an apologetic smile, then hurriedly lowered his head and looked at the screen.

This time he froze in place, muttering in his heart, his fingers wandering back and forth between answering and rejecting, until finally, he chose to answer, and after slowly moving the phone to his ear, he asked in confusion: "Hi, may I ask you?" Who are you looking for?"

There was still a long period of silence, Bai Ming felt a little apprehensive, and just about to hang up again, there was a voice from the other side.

"Bai Ming."

It was an extremely deep male voice, like a bell, with clear words.

Bai Ming's heart trembled, he was a little nervous, but since the other party had already spoken, he was relieved, and said warmly with a smile, "It's me, may I ask you?"

I don't know if the problem lies in the signal, the other party's response is always very slow, if it is someone with a bad temper, he will definitely curse twice, and then hang up abruptly, but Bai Ming didn't, he still held the phone tightly, be patient
