Yes, full of coquettish way: "Are you reluctant to part with me?"
The aroma from the honey pot rushed towards Bai Ming, covering his face.
This question caught him completely, and Lu Wu's tone was extremely serious, without any indecency, which made him lose his mind and didn't know how to answer.
The temperature in the room gradually rose, making his cheeks flushed with boredom, he quickly waved his hands, and denied it flatly: "No, no, I, I just thought you were so tired from work and brought me food, hoping to keep you for a while."
This answer made Lu Wu a little embarrassed, he nodded and said: "No, little assistant can eat by himself, you should not go out these days, the limelight is getting tight outside, you should avoid it at home first.
From now on, there will be three dishes and one soup every day, don't waste it, the police are very busy from top to bottom, if I am free, I will deliver it in person, if not, I will let Jing Yu come. "
Seeing that he couldn't keep him, Bai Ming had no choice but to ask, "Officer Lu, tell me the price, and I'll transfer it to you through my mobile phone."
"If you make yourself fatter, you're paying me." Lu Wu didn't answer this question directly. He patted Bai Ming's shoulder, touched the entrance door, and turned to leave.
Bai Ming didn't even have time to say goodbye. He knew that Lu Wu was so busy with his own affairs that he couldn't spare any time, which made him extremely guilty.
In fact, since he woke up, he has always had the desire to turn on the phone. After Lu Wu suspected that something happened to him, this desire seemed to be fueled. He picked up the phone in a hurry, plugged in the charger, and sat at the dining table. Before, he opened the meal and turned on the phone.
Shortly after turning it on, his phone froze without warning. Bai Ming tapped the screen twice with his hand, but he didn't get any response. Fortunately, this situation only lasted for less than a minute.
In an instant, a large number of text messages and missed calls came in like a wave, and he was dazzled and overwhelmed.
Taking a closer look, the senders of the text messages were all his friends, including Lin Jiang, Wang Qian, Qian Heng, Qiao Xue, and Yang He and his wife. The text messages were long or short, and they were all comforting words. Checked, but saw a familiar phone number hidden in the overwhelming news.
That number had the highest frequency of calls, almost every 10 minutes, and from last night to now, he had already received countless missed calls.
Those were Bai Ming's parents, parents who thought their son hadn't graduated yet.
His heart was sour, and the investigation turmoil broke out on the news, making everyone in the country know of his existence.
And the last text message from the parents was 10 minutes ago.
He was stunned. Before his body was completely stiff, the phone rang again. It was still a call from his parents.
The screen kept jumping, plucking his heartstrings. He couldn't press the green answer button until the ringtone was about to end. Then he took a deep breath, moved it to his ear, touched the button, and whispered: " Dad, Mom."
At first there was no sound from the other end of the phone, until Bai Ming opened his mouth, there was a faint sob. The voice came from a distance of thousands of miles, although it was separated by a telephone line, it seemed to echo in his ears. It was the voice of his hometown, the voice he had been used to hearing since he was a child, the voice that even if everyone spurned him, there would be some people who would not hesitate to believe it.
No one is not homesick.
The cries on the opposite side gradually increased, and at the end they were wailing incessantly.
The mother was out of breath, and even so she still asked in a trembling voice: "Ming'er, you scared your parents to death, why do you keep turning off the phone? Both parents are here, tell them."
The mother's crying is always more heart-stirring, listening to the tears over there, the sadness that Bai Ming had accumulated all night also burst out at this moment, his tears no longer obeyed the command of the brain, and flowed wantonly on his cheeks. It was the first time he felt so wronged, even last night, he never felt like this.
"Mom, I, I lied to you."
The teardrops fell into the lunch box like an unscrewed faucet.
The mother cried even more violently, "Minger, mom, mom is so worried about you. We called you all night and all morning, and the phone was always turned off. Have you eaten yet?"
The mother didn't pay attention to the lies about graduation, nor did she ask about the news reports. In her eyes, the most important thing she cared about was whether the child was doing well, whether he was safe, and whether he was hungry or not.
"Mom, I, I'm so sad." Bai Ming leaned back on the chair, put down the chopsticks with trembling hands, his eyes were already red.
The main battlefield of this crying has been transferred from his mother to Bai Ming. This greeting brought his emotions to a climax. All the grievances and sufferings he has suffered are like hot magma. After being suppressed for a long time, with the surging black smoke All of them spewed out, drawing meteor-like flying stones in the smoky sky, and no vegetation survived where they burned.
The mother's mood gradually slowed down, and Bai Ming asked anxiously while crying: "Tell Mom and Dad, what happened? What do you mean you lied to us?"
Holding the mobile phone, Bai Ming fluttered his nostrils, and said in a shy voice, "I, I actually graduated a long time ago."
The speaker was on on the other end of the phone, and my father had a gloomy expression on his face. Although he was puzzled, he still asked gently: "Ming'er, don't you want to come back?"
Bai Ming lowered his sobs and replied, "I, I want to stay in Jiangzhou. I actually graduated half a year ago, and I'm still looking for a job. Assistant, besides the job I like, there are also my friends, they, they are all very kind to me, I like it very much.”
As soon as the words fell, my father immediately continued: "Then what is the meaning of yesterday's news? What about the bus?"
Bai Ming did not hide the truth, and told the whole story of the [-]th case, including the threatening phone calls he received, his rescue on the bus, the threatening notes received by the radio station, and the origin of the evening news. Any concealment, after all, they are the relatives who care about him most in this world.
This series of processes left the parents dumbfounded, as if they were watching a TV series. No matter how coincidental, such an unbelievable scene should not have happened to their son.
My father calmed down and said slowly: "Ming'er, I told you a long time ago that Jiangzhou is not a good place. Back then, you insisted on getting there. Your mother and I thought that anyway, it was only five years for undergraduate and master's degree. It fulfilled your longing for there, and you also promised us at that time that you would go home immediately after graduation, did you forget?"
Bai Ming remained silent, and his sobbing tended to stop. Of course, he still remembered the promise he made to his parents easily when he was young. At that time, he dared to promise anything to his parents in order to fly out of the backwater mountain village. He also felt guilty for this, but it was just guilt, and he didn't regret it at all.
"I remember, but I..."
Before he finished speaking, his father interrupted: "Ming'er, your mother and I have held you in the palm of our hands since we were young, and we have treated you well in every way. We only hope that you will come back in the future and be by our side, so that we will not be replaced. You are worried, you can keep our family of three together all the time, now you are so far away from us, there are bus explosions, building threats, and so many bad things happened in that place, and you almost lost your life, now these It has verified what Dad told you at the time, Jiangzhou is not suitable for us, it is a vicious place, and the bad guys go there, you should come back quickly, don't stay there any longer."
What waited was Bai Ming's silence.
The mother also persuaded: "Ming'er, come back, stay with your parents, they will take good care of you."
"Mom and Dad, I don't need your care." Bai Ming was not convinced, his original aspiration and dream seemed to be the greatest thing in the world, "I have reached the age to take care of you, when I settle down here , I’ll take you over.”
Seeing that the persuasion failed, the father's kind tone became severe, "Ming'er, don't make your parents angry. We are not trying to persuade you, but telling you to come back soon."
"Don't be so fierce." The mother immediately reprimanded her father so that her father didn't dare to continue talking, she turned her head and said, "Morrow, you know, the number of times your parents have been fierce since you were young, you can count on your fingers, Your dad has a reason for saying this this time, you have to listen."
His parents bombarded him again and again, but Bai Ming couldn't listen. He couldn't understand what his parents thought, and he also knew that his parents didn't understand the situation in Jiangzhou. He picked up the chopsticks and stuffed two mouthfuls of food into his mouth. Under the nagging of his parents, he became irritable.
The two sides insisted on their own words and argued endlessly.
The mother heard the perfunctory in Bai Ming's words, and said anxiously: "Ming'er, did you hear that? Hurry up and pack up your things, buy the fastest ticket and come back. Mom will cook your favorite fish for you."
"Mom, and Dad, I really don't want to go back." Bai Ming pouted, feeling resentful in his heart, but still said softly to his parents, "I'm just suspended from my job and haven't been investigated yet. I believe that when the police find out who's behind the scenes Mafia, the procuratorate will return my innocence, and I will be able to return to work in the court at that time, I am doing well here, so you don’t have to worry about me.”
"No!" Father refused firmly, "I shouldn't have promised you to come here to go to college in the first place."
"Why?" Bai Ming asked, his tone full of confusion. He slowed down his speech, trying to ease the intense atmosphere at the moment, "You must give me a reasonable reason."
In fact, he knew the reason very well. It was nothing more than high consumption and being far away from home.But in terms of high consumption, he can live frugally, and in terms of being far away from home, he is willing to take his parents over. What he said is nothing more than the reason why his parents are most difficult for him to accept, that is, their parents don't like this from the bottom of their hearts. place.
When the mother heard her son's depression, she gave her father a look and said softly, "Ming'er, you know that Jiangzhou is not a safe place."
Bai Ming sighed, and replied: "That's just because of the special nature of my work. After this case is investigated, life will be stable, and there will be no more moths."
Realizing that the persuasion was futile, my father continued: "Looking back, there are not many people traffickers, black///society in Jiangzhou? Everyone knows that it is a treasure land of fireworks that can make a fortune and make a fortune. There are both black and white. Get together, we have no background and no financial resources, how can we get along?"
Going around, my parents are still looking at Jiangzhou now through the colored glasses of five or six years ago.
"Mom and Dad, that's all in the past. The law and order in the past is completely different from now. Now the streets and alleys are full of police, and the black///social traffickers have been cleaned up long ago."
The father retorted again: "What about the bus case? If it was so safe, would this kind of thing happen to you?"
Bai Ming was aggrieved, but he was speechless, saying that he couldn't help himself, how could his parents believe it, he could only shake his head, facing the topic back to the starting point, he said helplessly: "If you don't believe it, you can come here yourself Take a look at Jiangzhou."
After finishing speaking, he casually found a reason why he was busy, and hung up the phone.
The author has something to say:
I don’t know why the black /// society needs to type three /// to display, / or // will be blocked...
Speaking of business, thank you little angels who have followed up here!

Thank you everyone--
55. Chamber of Secrets
It was only six o'clock in the city, and the sky had become completely dark.
Before he knew it, half a month had passed. During this period of time, Bai Ming didn't even leave the house. Fortunately, Lin Jiang came to accompany him from time to time, so he wouldn't be so lonely.
The suspension from the Huaian Court has already been issued, but it is currently stored in the hands of Zheng Ye. He has been in the industry for many years, and this person told Bai Ming in advance to protect him in disguise. These days, reporters from major media The court has been completely surrounded, in order to prevent his students from being hurt by the second exposure, he asked Bai Ming to rest early at home.
The statement notified by the superiors has been made known to the whole city, and the city procuratorate has officially intervened in it, and started to investigate the judge assistant who was criticized by everyone.
Investigation is also a good thing. After all, you are not afraid of shadows. If you can find out something, ask the bus driver and the woman with the child about the specific situation on the bus, and the truth will naturally come out.
But just when Bai Ming was expecting someone to stand up and testify for him, that old man first appeared in the field of public opinion. He accepted one interview column after another, appeared on talk shows again and again, with an arrogant attitude Ang, seeking sympathy from the victim's point of view, embellished the facts, and described Bai Ming as a villain full of crimes, and made him suffer all kinds of criticism.
The driver, on the grounds that he was driving at the time, said he did not know the condition of the carriage, so he did not get involved. The woman refused to disclose any information to the police and the media because she was afraid of getting involved.
Bai Ming understands what they are doing. At this juncture, no one is willing to get involved and ask for trouble.
He was on TV, in newspapers, and on the hot search list. At first, he would pay attention to it twice, but in the past two weeks, these news were nothing more than broadcasting content about himself, and he no longer cared about those negative things. / Evaluation, simply turn off the TV, turn off the phone, close your eyes and listen, and turn a deaf ear.
Neon is the liquid droplets left in the wine glass. After the evening, it becomes drunk, and the colorful spotlights enter the silent night sky. It is obvious that there is a bustling Huashirahama not far away, but there is no sound in the tall buildings.
The prince had a great time playing, and stretched out his front paws to catch a bright light. Unfortunately, after Bai Ming turned on the chandelier in the living room, the faint colored light was submerged in the white light. After the prince could not see the light, he began to walk along the sofa. Playing wantonly, it jumped onto the sofa, running and jumping carefree, as if it was very happy because Bai Ming didn't go to work.
Bai Ming sat back on the sofa, sighed, closed his eyes and rested his mind.
The prince ran all the way along the sofa, and when he reached the owner's side, he took off vigorously, stepped on Bai Ming's thighs, and fell to the floor with a thud, completing a difficult movement like a gymnast.
Bai Ming was closing his eyes, exhausted all his energy, when he was suddenly stepped on by the crown prince, unprepared, he only felt a pain in his leg, gasped in shock, straightened his back from the sofa, covered the painful area with his hands, and closed his eyes. It opened immediately, and saw the prince standing on the ground, looking back at himself, as if waiting for his compliment.
Bai Ming waved his hand, pointed to the door of the back room, frowned and said, "Hey, go inside and play."
Unable to wait for the praise, the prince walked in in the direction indicated.
"The cihuamao is really full of energy." Bai Ming said to himself, closing his eyes again.
He only had his job in his mind, and he began to think about the worst outcome. If the police did not find the person behind the scenes, his innocence would be difficult to wash away, and his suspension might turn into dismissal, and his file would also leave The next disgraceful experience, if you want to make a living in Jiangzhou again, I am afraid it is a dream.
Do you really want to give up here and return to that northern town full of camellias?
Thinking of this, he only felt physically and mentally exhausted.
In an instant, there was a bang in the room, followed by two meows from the prince.
Bai Ming has long been numb to the familiar voice. One day he broke the bowls and plates, and the next day he knocked over the lampshade. They still couldn't escape the fate of being rummaged by the prince.
He was already preoccupied, but when he remembered that he would spend a lot of savings to buy pots and pans, he let out a long sigh, got up from the sofa, and walked towards the back room. What's broken?"
Looking in along the long corridor, he saw the prince standing blankly outside a room.
That room was Jing Yu's storage room. It was originally a bedroom, but before Bai Ming moved in, Jing Yu locked all the family's things into this room, and he took the key away with him. Since then, this place has become a secret room that no one can enter.
But now, the room that had been dusty for several months was accidentally opened by the prince.
Bai Ming was dumbfounded, the door was always locked in his impression.
There was a black crack in the door of the room. He approached slowly, only to see that the doorknob was half crushed, and then he realized that the prince must have jumped on the doorknob, but the handle couldn't bear its weight, and the lock together with him. It's broken.
The prince looked back at Bai Ming, yelled twice, and then squeezed into the crack of the door.
Bai Ming panicked and shouted: "Come back! You can't enter inside!"
He stretched out his hand to catch the prince, but he didn't even touch the tail, just watched it jump in quickly, and fell into the darkness. He called twice at the door, but the prince just meowed inside. Although there was a response, there was no sign of coming out.
In order to prevent the cat from kicking Jing Yu's things, Bai Ming slowly opened the door, trying to carry the prince out of the house.
The door was only pushed halfway, and it couldn't be pushed anymore. A smell of dust came blowing to his face. He covered his nose and coughed twice, then waved his hand to swipe away the dust in front of him, and stretched an arm through the crack of the door, trying to get out. Blindly touch the switch on the wall, when the light is turned on, the dark room is instantly illuminated.
This room is not cluttered, everything is neatly arranged, from extra sheets and pillows, to bookshelves and boxes lying on the ground, from various video games, to useless home furnishings, everything that one expects to find, all piled up in this small place in an orderly manner small room.
But this room is not tidy, the floor is covered with sundries, and several boxes are even piled up to the ceiling. After these few months of accumulation, the dust has covered the whole room. Bai Ming didn't even find a place to set his feet. Can stand at the door of the house in a daze, calling for the prince to come out.
The prince crawled back and forth among the debris, as if he had discovered a new world, jumping up and down, completely ignoring Bai Ming's shout.
Since the crown prince didn't listen to him, Bai Ming had no choice but to grab it out of the house himself. He stepped in with one foot through the half-open door, and this step crossed two boxes. Then start looking for the next foothold.
At the same time, his hands were gently pushing the box, trying to make a path.
He looked down and saw that the box was full of awards and pennants. In addition, there were also various criminal investigation books, such as criminal psychology, investigative methodology, and criminal judgments. He just glanced at it and thought to himself Admired: "I didn't expect Officer Jing to have such a wealth of professional knowledge."
Fortunately, the prince didn't run too far, Bai Ming picked it up, gave him a good lesson, and prepared to return along the same path.
When he turned around, he found a box behind the half-open door, which was the reason why he couldn't open the door just now. There was a shriveled basketball in the box. That basketball was nothing special, but it caught his eye. What's more, the side of the basketball was smeared with a black marker, like a few words, shining brightly under the light, and it was really hard for him to see clearly.
He slowly approached the door, put down the prince in his arms, and drove it out of the room. He gently picked up the basketball, turned the black part to the top, and two prominent characters appeared in front of his eyes. It was two Chinese characters that he was so familiar with that he could no longer be familiar with them.
His name - Bai Ming.
His expression changed immediately, and he stared carefully at the crooked handwriting, which was definitely not written by himself. He turned the basketball around to see if there were any other writings, but at the end, besides his own name, , The surface of the basketball is clean.
Astonishment, apart from astonishment, there is only puzzlement.
He always felt that the black handwriting looked familiar, but he had never seen the words written by Jing Yu.
His mind was running like a storm at the moment, like a search engine, searching through the historical records he had checked over and over again. Suddenly, he had a flash of inspiration, and the engine found a person with a high degree of matching.
Lu Wu...
But what did he write his name for?And put the ball in Jing Yu's home.
Bai Ming couldn't think of a reason, so he had to put the ball down, but the moment he put it down, he caught a glimpse of a slightly yellowed photo in the same box, and the color tone of the photo was at least ten years ago. In [-], the most eye-catching thing was that the photo was only half on the left side. It was obvious that the right side had been torn off and taken away. The torn marks were crooked like jagged teeth, and the white bottom edge was leaking out.
He picked up the photo again and carefully looked at the contents inside.
The background of the photo is a sea of camellias. Wherever the eyes can see, there are blooming everlasting flowers. In the sea of flowers stands a high-spirited young man, and the thin warm sun dances golden flares between the ends of his hair. , There was light in his eyes, and his smile was lively. The wind bulged his pure white short-sleeved shirt and slipped away from his shoulders.
The sea of flowers had just passed the boy's waist, and his smile seemed to have seen the most beautiful thing in the world.
The young man was in his prime, full of heroism, and Bai Ming recognized him at a glance.
"Is this a photo of Police Officer Lu when he was a child?"
Compared with today's tall, mighty, vigor and vigor of the vice-captain of the criminal investigation team, he in the photo is more youthful and energetic.
But this photo was torn in half, and the other half disappeared. Thinking of this, Bai Ming couldn't help but feel a little regretful.
Looking at the boy's arms, his right hand is holding a bottle of orange-flavored soda. The soda is halfway through and still bubbling, but his left hand is holding a small white hand like a catkin. The boy is holding it tightly. Tight, as if declaring to everyone who has seen the photo that this hand belongs to him.
This is the whole content of this half of the photo. The person the boy is leading is torn off, so Bai Ming doesn't know.
There is only one most reasonable explanation. Bai Ming remembered that Lu Wu once told himself that he had someone he liked in his heart, but when he mentioned that person, Lu Wu's expression was solemn, and he didn't want to look back. The other half of this photo, perhaps It was the person Lu Wu was most difficult to let go of.
It's a pity that this photo is old, like a memory from childhood.
Bai Ming suddenly felt a little lost. He didn't know when it started. He seemed to have a strange emotion towards Lu Wu. He couldn't describe this emotion. It was like dependence and yearning. He couldn't control it. It was turbulent when it came, and slow when it went. Although Lu Wu once said that he would never look back on the past, when he saw that there was someone he liked in Lu Wu's heart, his heart fell apart like a bridge washed away by a flood.
The disappointment was only temporary. He put the photo back in its original place, and the more he thought about it, the more something went wrong. Why are there so many Lu Wu's things in Jing Yu's house?
He thought of Jing Yu's appearance of being almost tripped and vaguely introduced when he visited the house on the first day, and that he listened to Lu Wu so much that he not only lowered the rent but also agreed to keep a cat by himself, Bai Ming became suspicious.
Something was wrong, he bent down, and picked up a paper certificate, which showed Lu Wu's name on it, and he picked up a silk banner, which still had Lu Wu's name written on it, every book, every item, Bai Ming opened it and put it back in place. He checked again and again, but he didn't find anything that belonged to Jing Yu. The whole room, or the whole house, belonged to Lu Wu.
Lu Wu once mentioned the friend who died in the line of duty, and it seems that he also lived here.
Bai Ming froze in place, he suddenly remembered Yang Zhong's flustered expression when he mentioned the house in Huabaibang.
He suddenly realized that everyone was cooperating with Lu Wu to hide himself until now.
At this moment, a doorbell interrupted his thinking. He walked out of the so-called secret room, turned off the light, and knocked on the door again. Unfortunately, the lock was broken, so he could only close it lightly.
The person outside the door was Jing Yu. He had not stopped for half a month, and every day he would deliver three dishes and one soup according to Lu Wu's instructions, and he would leave as soon as he was done, without stopping for a second.
Bai Ming took the endless meal at the door, frowned, and hurriedly stopped Jing Yu who turned to leave, and said: "Officer Jing, wait a moment, I, I should pay the rent."
Jing Yu pressed the button to control the elevator, turned around, and said calmly, "No more."
"But I have to pay for the door lock. The door where you put the sundries was crushed by my cat. I can't go out during this time. I can't find a lock changer, so I can only pay you temporarily. "Bai Ming said apologetically as he supported the porch.
Hearing the sundries, Jing Yu was taken aback for a moment, his expressionless face was a little nervous, and he replied: "It's broken? Don't go in first, it's dirty and messy inside, and there are a lot of my messy things. I'll get someone to fix it tomorrow."
Seeing him pretending to be calm and relaxed, Bai Ming probably knew something in his mind, nodded, and calmly said: "I see, you are also busy these days, in addition to various cases in hand, you also have to prepare to play in the basketball league , I have been bothering you all the time, and I feel a little sorry, I have already transferred the rent money, please accept it."
Jing Yu didn't look at him, turned to the elevator, and swallowed, "Ball games or something, Team Lu doesn't care about it anymore, our police can still figure out what's more important now, I can't take the money, you save it yourself first Bar."
Bai Ming's eyes flickered, he lowered his head, and asked softly, "How did your investigation go?"
"The handwriting has been compared. At present, the suspicion of the insiders of Times Evening News can be basically ruled out. The Lu team also ordered to call all the surveillance cameras within a five-kilometer radius, and sent someone to talk to the old man who was involved in the [-]th case. Everything is still in progress."
The investigation process was originally a public security secret, but before Jing Yu came here, he obeyed Lu Wu's order and promised to tell Bai Ming the current situation, and he just told him everything.
Bai Ming stood where he was, wanted to speak but couldn't, with mixed emotions in his heart.
Jing Yu saw that he was melancholy, and knew that he was losing face, so he added: "Captain Lu also said, don't worry, he has made some progress, if you have any questions, call him, although he is busy , I can’t find time, but you can still find him if you are in a hurry, and he will come over as soon as possible.”
He continued: "Also, when it comes to the basketball league, although we haven't rehearsed, we don't have any hope of winning, but after waiting for more than half a month, we also want to work hard and get a good result. It will start in the evening of this weekend, and Team Lu still hopes that you can come to the scene in person, and he will ask Wang Qian to pick you up."
"Officer Lu really has a lot of instructions." Bai Ming smiled, and made a gesture of encouragement with clenched fists, "Don't worry, I will definitely go, and the time for this competition is also well chosen, just for you to relax. I can also improve my mood, thank you for your hard work today, let’s work hard tomorrow.”
The night is as cool as water, and the moonlight sprinkles in the bleak autumn wind. It sprinkles in from the outside of the corridor, dyeing this place into a pearl beach.
The elevator arrived at the 19th floor with a ding, and as the compartment door slowly opened, the lights in the compartment cast Jing Yu's shadow onto the white wall behind him, vividly painted.
Bai Ming put away his yugui-like smile, wrapped his clothes tightly, and could no longer bear the confusion in his heart. Seeing that Jing Yu was about to leave, he took a step forward and said in a panic, "Officer Jing, can I ask you one last question?" Question?"
Jing Yu had already stepped into the elevator with one foot. He stopped and looked sideways at the entrance. The person standing holding the door in the moonlight looked somewhat haggard. He retracted that foot without opening his mouth, as if he had acquiesced. Like an answer.
The door of the compartment was gradually closed, and the projection on the wall also disappeared, and the moonlight became the only light source here again.
"You, are you really my landlord?"
56. League
After a few days of turmoil, although the request to crusade against judge assistants is still a hot topic on the Internet, the popularity has dropped a lot after all. At least Bai Ming is no longer the talk of every Jiangzhou citizen, and he can also wear a hat , go out for a walk occasionally, so that no one will notice.
On the weekend afternoon, the sky was clear and there was no wind or cloud. This is a rare good weather in late autumn. The police seemed to have calculated the weather in advance, so they arranged the game for today.
Bai Ming wore the white peaked cap that he wore the night he was hijacked by Wei Feng. After tidying up a bit, he hurried out. He had hardly seen anyone in the past few days. Thinking that he would see all his friends soon, he felt in his heart Also relieved a lot.
The familiar black car was still parked outside the gate of the community, but the driver was replaced by Wang Qian. She was driving her brother's car, humming and playing with her mobile phone. When she saw Bai Ming walking out of the community, she pulled it off Car window, waved.
Bai Ming trotted over, got into the back seat, and said with a smile: "Officer Wang, long time no see, thank you for coming to pick me up."
"You are too polite." Wang Qian didn't care, and said without thinking, "Brother told me a long time ago, let me take you there in person, he has been looking forward to this day for too long."
The car started and drove towards Jiangzhou Gymnasium.
Bai Ming asked in surprise, "Officer Lu, do you like playing basketball so much?"
Wang Qian laughed gossipingly, "I heard that he has liked it since he was a child, and that the first basketball in his life was given to him by his sweetheart, but these are all rumors in the city bureau. As for whether it is true or not, senior brother Never told us, you know, he has a lot of airs and doesn't talk nonsense to us."
Bai Ming understood and then asked again: "Officer Wang, I heard Lin Jiang said that he is coming too. Did you make an appointment to meet at the gymnasium and go play together?"
As soon as these words came out, Wang Qian's cheeks flushed slightly. Perhaps it was because the inside of the car was hot. She pressed the window, revealing a gap. The breeze was blowing from the outside, which was smoother than a cobblestone.
She pressed the sweat on her forehead, and said embarrassedly: "Yes, yes, we are not interested in basketball games, so we just take advantage of the half day off on weekends to go for a walk outside and chat."
"Then are there still people on duty at the city bureau and the police station?"
"Of course, you can't leave nobody on duty just because you're playing a ball game, but the police force must be a little weak. After all, the backbone of the police force is gathering in the gymnasium to warm up and rehearse."
The peaked cap was pressed tightly, so that the short and thick bangs on Bai Ming's forehead could not be blown away by the wind.
"How are you doing these few days?" Seeing that the person in the back seat was silent, Wang Qian thought that maybe he was still troubled by the previous days, so she asked worriedly.
Bai Ming nodded, smiled lightly, and looked optimistic, "I'm fine, otherwise I wouldn't be in the mood to watch the game."
That bright smile was warmer than the sunset on the glass in front of the car, Wang Qian didn't think too much about it, and comforted her: "If you have something to do, if senior brother can't help you, just come and tell me, don't be afraid of trouble."
"Okay, thank you Officer Wang..." Bai Ming half-jokingly said, "I will definitely go to you and Lin Jiang if I need anything."
Wang Qian was stunned for a moment, her blushing face was like a sunset glow, and she seemed to lose her color. She said, "Just look for me. Why are you looking for him?"
Bai Ming leaned back in the soft chair with a brighter smile, "Are you still separated? I thought he was sticking to you like a rice cake."
These words hit Wang Qian's girlish heart, she hesitated and said: "No, no, don't talk nonsense, it's alright, alright, let's quickly change the subject."
Jiangzhou Gymnasium is located opposite Jiangxin Park. After driving for [-] minutes, the car finally stopped at the entrance of this ingot-like building.
The autumn wind blows the shadows of the trees, and she dances gracefully like a fair lady. She wears the afterglow of the setting sun as her clothes, and bids farewell to the fallen leaves for the coming year.
Wang Qian got out of the car, clapped her hands together, and boasted: "My driving skills are not bad, although I'm not as good as my senior brother.
The aroma from the honey pot rushed towards Bai Ming, covering his face.
This question caught him completely, and Lu Wu's tone was extremely serious, without any indecency, which made him lose his mind and didn't know how to answer.
The temperature in the room gradually rose, making his cheeks flushed with boredom, he quickly waved his hands, and denied it flatly: "No, no, I, I just thought you were so tired from work and brought me food, hoping to keep you for a while."
This answer made Lu Wu a little embarrassed, he nodded and said: "No, little assistant can eat by himself, you should not go out these days, the limelight is getting tight outside, you should avoid it at home first.
From now on, there will be three dishes and one soup every day, don't waste it, the police are very busy from top to bottom, if I am free, I will deliver it in person, if not, I will let Jing Yu come. "
Seeing that he couldn't keep him, Bai Ming had no choice but to ask, "Officer Lu, tell me the price, and I'll transfer it to you through my mobile phone."
"If you make yourself fatter, you're paying me." Lu Wu didn't answer this question directly. He patted Bai Ming's shoulder, touched the entrance door, and turned to leave.
Bai Ming didn't even have time to say goodbye. He knew that Lu Wu was so busy with his own affairs that he couldn't spare any time, which made him extremely guilty.
In fact, since he woke up, he has always had the desire to turn on the phone. After Lu Wu suspected that something happened to him, this desire seemed to be fueled. He picked up the phone in a hurry, plugged in the charger, and sat at the dining table. Before, he opened the meal and turned on the phone.
Shortly after turning it on, his phone froze without warning. Bai Ming tapped the screen twice with his hand, but he didn't get any response. Fortunately, this situation only lasted for less than a minute.
In an instant, a large number of text messages and missed calls came in like a wave, and he was dazzled and overwhelmed.
Taking a closer look, the senders of the text messages were all his friends, including Lin Jiang, Wang Qian, Qian Heng, Qiao Xue, and Yang He and his wife. The text messages were long or short, and they were all comforting words. Checked, but saw a familiar phone number hidden in the overwhelming news.
That number had the highest frequency of calls, almost every 10 minutes, and from last night to now, he had already received countless missed calls.
Those were Bai Ming's parents, parents who thought their son hadn't graduated yet.
His heart was sour, and the investigation turmoil broke out on the news, making everyone in the country know of his existence.
And the last text message from the parents was 10 minutes ago.
He was stunned. Before his body was completely stiff, the phone rang again. It was still a call from his parents.
The screen kept jumping, plucking his heartstrings. He couldn't press the green answer button until the ringtone was about to end. Then he took a deep breath, moved it to his ear, touched the button, and whispered: " Dad, Mom."
At first there was no sound from the other end of the phone, until Bai Ming opened his mouth, there was a faint sob. The voice came from a distance of thousands of miles, although it was separated by a telephone line, it seemed to echo in his ears. It was the voice of his hometown, the voice he had been used to hearing since he was a child, the voice that even if everyone spurned him, there would be some people who would not hesitate to believe it.
No one is not homesick.
The cries on the opposite side gradually increased, and at the end they were wailing incessantly.
The mother was out of breath, and even so she still asked in a trembling voice: "Ming'er, you scared your parents to death, why do you keep turning off the phone? Both parents are here, tell them."
The mother's crying is always more heart-stirring, listening to the tears over there, the sadness that Bai Ming had accumulated all night also burst out at this moment, his tears no longer obeyed the command of the brain, and flowed wantonly on his cheeks. It was the first time he felt so wronged, even last night, he never felt like this.
"Mom, I, I lied to you."
The teardrops fell into the lunch box like an unscrewed faucet.
The mother cried even more violently, "Minger, mom, mom is so worried about you. We called you all night and all morning, and the phone was always turned off. Have you eaten yet?"
The mother didn't pay attention to the lies about graduation, nor did she ask about the news reports. In her eyes, the most important thing she cared about was whether the child was doing well, whether he was safe, and whether he was hungry or not.
"Mom, I, I'm so sad." Bai Ming leaned back on the chair, put down the chopsticks with trembling hands, his eyes were already red.
The main battlefield of this crying has been transferred from his mother to Bai Ming. This greeting brought his emotions to a climax. All the grievances and sufferings he has suffered are like hot magma. After being suppressed for a long time, with the surging black smoke All of them spewed out, drawing meteor-like flying stones in the smoky sky, and no vegetation survived where they burned.
The mother's mood gradually slowed down, and Bai Ming asked anxiously while crying: "Tell Mom and Dad, what happened? What do you mean you lied to us?"
Holding the mobile phone, Bai Ming fluttered his nostrils, and said in a shy voice, "I, I actually graduated a long time ago."
The speaker was on on the other end of the phone, and my father had a gloomy expression on his face. Although he was puzzled, he still asked gently: "Ming'er, don't you want to come back?"
Bai Ming lowered his sobs and replied, "I, I want to stay in Jiangzhou. I actually graduated half a year ago, and I'm still looking for a job. Assistant, besides the job I like, there are also my friends, they, they are all very kind to me, I like it very much.”
As soon as the words fell, my father immediately continued: "Then what is the meaning of yesterday's news? What about the bus?"
Bai Ming did not hide the truth, and told the whole story of the [-]th case, including the threatening phone calls he received, his rescue on the bus, the threatening notes received by the radio station, and the origin of the evening news. Any concealment, after all, they are the relatives who care about him most in this world.
This series of processes left the parents dumbfounded, as if they were watching a TV series. No matter how coincidental, such an unbelievable scene should not have happened to their son.
My father calmed down and said slowly: "Ming'er, I told you a long time ago that Jiangzhou is not a good place. Back then, you insisted on getting there. Your mother and I thought that anyway, it was only five years for undergraduate and master's degree. It fulfilled your longing for there, and you also promised us at that time that you would go home immediately after graduation, did you forget?"
Bai Ming remained silent, and his sobbing tended to stop. Of course, he still remembered the promise he made to his parents easily when he was young. At that time, he dared to promise anything to his parents in order to fly out of the backwater mountain village. He also felt guilty for this, but it was just guilt, and he didn't regret it at all.
"I remember, but I..."
Before he finished speaking, his father interrupted: "Ming'er, your mother and I have held you in the palm of our hands since we were young, and we have treated you well in every way. We only hope that you will come back in the future and be by our side, so that we will not be replaced. You are worried, you can keep our family of three together all the time, now you are so far away from us, there are bus explosions, building threats, and so many bad things happened in that place, and you almost lost your life, now these It has verified what Dad told you at the time, Jiangzhou is not suitable for us, it is a vicious place, and the bad guys go there, you should come back quickly, don't stay there any longer."
What waited was Bai Ming's silence.
The mother also persuaded: "Ming'er, come back, stay with your parents, they will take good care of you."
"Mom and Dad, I don't need your care." Bai Ming was not convinced, his original aspiration and dream seemed to be the greatest thing in the world, "I have reached the age to take care of you, when I settle down here , I’ll take you over.”
Seeing that the persuasion failed, the father's kind tone became severe, "Ming'er, don't make your parents angry. We are not trying to persuade you, but telling you to come back soon."
"Don't be so fierce." The mother immediately reprimanded her father so that her father didn't dare to continue talking, she turned her head and said, "Morrow, you know, the number of times your parents have been fierce since you were young, you can count on your fingers, Your dad has a reason for saying this this time, you have to listen."
His parents bombarded him again and again, but Bai Ming couldn't listen. He couldn't understand what his parents thought, and he also knew that his parents didn't understand the situation in Jiangzhou. He picked up the chopsticks and stuffed two mouthfuls of food into his mouth. Under the nagging of his parents, he became irritable.
The two sides insisted on their own words and argued endlessly.
The mother heard the perfunctory in Bai Ming's words, and said anxiously: "Ming'er, did you hear that? Hurry up and pack up your things, buy the fastest ticket and come back. Mom will cook your favorite fish for you."
"Mom, and Dad, I really don't want to go back." Bai Ming pouted, feeling resentful in his heart, but still said softly to his parents, "I'm just suspended from my job and haven't been investigated yet. I believe that when the police find out who's behind the scenes Mafia, the procuratorate will return my innocence, and I will be able to return to work in the court at that time, I am doing well here, so you don’t have to worry about me.”
"No!" Father refused firmly, "I shouldn't have promised you to come here to go to college in the first place."
"Why?" Bai Ming asked, his tone full of confusion. He slowed down his speech, trying to ease the intense atmosphere at the moment, "You must give me a reasonable reason."
In fact, he knew the reason very well. It was nothing more than high consumption and being far away from home.But in terms of high consumption, he can live frugally, and in terms of being far away from home, he is willing to take his parents over. What he said is nothing more than the reason why his parents are most difficult for him to accept, that is, their parents don't like this from the bottom of their hearts. place.
When the mother heard her son's depression, she gave her father a look and said softly, "Ming'er, you know that Jiangzhou is not a safe place."
Bai Ming sighed, and replied: "That's just because of the special nature of my work. After this case is investigated, life will be stable, and there will be no more moths."
Realizing that the persuasion was futile, my father continued: "Looking back, there are not many people traffickers, black///society in Jiangzhou? Everyone knows that it is a treasure land of fireworks that can make a fortune and make a fortune. There are both black and white. Get together, we have no background and no financial resources, how can we get along?"
Going around, my parents are still looking at Jiangzhou now through the colored glasses of five or six years ago.
"Mom and Dad, that's all in the past. The law and order in the past is completely different from now. Now the streets and alleys are full of police, and the black///social traffickers have been cleaned up long ago."
The father retorted again: "What about the bus case? If it was so safe, would this kind of thing happen to you?"
Bai Ming was aggrieved, but he was speechless, saying that he couldn't help himself, how could his parents believe it, he could only shake his head, facing the topic back to the starting point, he said helplessly: "If you don't believe it, you can come here yourself Take a look at Jiangzhou."
After finishing speaking, he casually found a reason why he was busy, and hung up the phone.
The author has something to say:
I don’t know why the black /// society needs to type three /// to display, / or // will be blocked...
Speaking of business, thank you little angels who have followed up here!

Thank you everyone--
55. Chamber of Secrets
It was only six o'clock in the city, and the sky had become completely dark.
Before he knew it, half a month had passed. During this period of time, Bai Ming didn't even leave the house. Fortunately, Lin Jiang came to accompany him from time to time, so he wouldn't be so lonely.
The suspension from the Huaian Court has already been issued, but it is currently stored in the hands of Zheng Ye. He has been in the industry for many years, and this person told Bai Ming in advance to protect him in disguise. These days, reporters from major media The court has been completely surrounded, in order to prevent his students from being hurt by the second exposure, he asked Bai Ming to rest early at home.
The statement notified by the superiors has been made known to the whole city, and the city procuratorate has officially intervened in it, and started to investigate the judge assistant who was criticized by everyone.
Investigation is also a good thing. After all, you are not afraid of shadows. If you can find out something, ask the bus driver and the woman with the child about the specific situation on the bus, and the truth will naturally come out.
But just when Bai Ming was expecting someone to stand up and testify for him, that old man first appeared in the field of public opinion. He accepted one interview column after another, appeared on talk shows again and again, with an arrogant attitude Ang, seeking sympathy from the victim's point of view, embellished the facts, and described Bai Ming as a villain full of crimes, and made him suffer all kinds of criticism.
The driver, on the grounds that he was driving at the time, said he did not know the condition of the carriage, so he did not get involved. The woman refused to disclose any information to the police and the media because she was afraid of getting involved.
Bai Ming understands what they are doing. At this juncture, no one is willing to get involved and ask for trouble.
He was on TV, in newspapers, and on the hot search list. At first, he would pay attention to it twice, but in the past two weeks, these news were nothing more than broadcasting content about himself, and he no longer cared about those negative things. / Evaluation, simply turn off the TV, turn off the phone, close your eyes and listen, and turn a deaf ear.
Neon is the liquid droplets left in the wine glass. After the evening, it becomes drunk, and the colorful spotlights enter the silent night sky. It is obvious that there is a bustling Huashirahama not far away, but there is no sound in the tall buildings.
The prince had a great time playing, and stretched out his front paws to catch a bright light. Unfortunately, after Bai Ming turned on the chandelier in the living room, the faint colored light was submerged in the white light. After the prince could not see the light, he began to walk along the sofa. Playing wantonly, it jumped onto the sofa, running and jumping carefree, as if it was very happy because Bai Ming didn't go to work.
Bai Ming sat back on the sofa, sighed, closed his eyes and rested his mind.
The prince ran all the way along the sofa, and when he reached the owner's side, he took off vigorously, stepped on Bai Ming's thighs, and fell to the floor with a thud, completing a difficult movement like a gymnast.
Bai Ming was closing his eyes, exhausted all his energy, when he was suddenly stepped on by the crown prince, unprepared, he only felt a pain in his leg, gasped in shock, straightened his back from the sofa, covered the painful area with his hands, and closed his eyes. It opened immediately, and saw the prince standing on the ground, looking back at himself, as if waiting for his compliment.
Bai Ming waved his hand, pointed to the door of the back room, frowned and said, "Hey, go inside and play."
Unable to wait for the praise, the prince walked in in the direction indicated.
"The cihuamao is really full of energy." Bai Ming said to himself, closing his eyes again.
He only had his job in his mind, and he began to think about the worst outcome. If the police did not find the person behind the scenes, his innocence would be difficult to wash away, and his suspension might turn into dismissal, and his file would also leave The next disgraceful experience, if you want to make a living in Jiangzhou again, I am afraid it is a dream.
Do you really want to give up here and return to that northern town full of camellias?
Thinking of this, he only felt physically and mentally exhausted.
In an instant, there was a bang in the room, followed by two meows from the prince.
Bai Ming has long been numb to the familiar voice. One day he broke the bowls and plates, and the next day he knocked over the lampshade. They still couldn't escape the fate of being rummaged by the prince.
He was already preoccupied, but when he remembered that he would spend a lot of savings to buy pots and pans, he let out a long sigh, got up from the sofa, and walked towards the back room. What's broken?"
Looking in along the long corridor, he saw the prince standing blankly outside a room.
That room was Jing Yu's storage room. It was originally a bedroom, but before Bai Ming moved in, Jing Yu locked all the family's things into this room, and he took the key away with him. Since then, this place has become a secret room that no one can enter.
But now, the room that had been dusty for several months was accidentally opened by the prince.
Bai Ming was dumbfounded, the door was always locked in his impression.
There was a black crack in the door of the room. He approached slowly, only to see that the doorknob was half crushed, and then he realized that the prince must have jumped on the doorknob, but the handle couldn't bear its weight, and the lock together with him. It's broken.
The prince looked back at Bai Ming, yelled twice, and then squeezed into the crack of the door.
Bai Ming panicked and shouted: "Come back! You can't enter inside!"
He stretched out his hand to catch the prince, but he didn't even touch the tail, just watched it jump in quickly, and fell into the darkness. He called twice at the door, but the prince just meowed inside. Although there was a response, there was no sign of coming out.
In order to prevent the cat from kicking Jing Yu's things, Bai Ming slowly opened the door, trying to carry the prince out of the house.
The door was only pushed halfway, and it couldn't be pushed anymore. A smell of dust came blowing to his face. He covered his nose and coughed twice, then waved his hand to swipe away the dust in front of him, and stretched an arm through the crack of the door, trying to get out. Blindly touch the switch on the wall, when the light is turned on, the dark room is instantly illuminated.
This room is not cluttered, everything is neatly arranged, from extra sheets and pillows, to bookshelves and boxes lying on the ground, from various video games, to useless home furnishings, everything that one expects to find, all piled up in this small place in an orderly manner small room.
But this room is not tidy, the floor is covered with sundries, and several boxes are even piled up to the ceiling. After these few months of accumulation, the dust has covered the whole room. Bai Ming didn't even find a place to set his feet. Can stand at the door of the house in a daze, calling for the prince to come out.
The prince crawled back and forth among the debris, as if he had discovered a new world, jumping up and down, completely ignoring Bai Ming's shout.
Since the crown prince didn't listen to him, Bai Ming had no choice but to grab it out of the house himself. He stepped in with one foot through the half-open door, and this step crossed two boxes. Then start looking for the next foothold.
At the same time, his hands were gently pushing the box, trying to make a path.
He looked down and saw that the box was full of awards and pennants. In addition, there were also various criminal investigation books, such as criminal psychology, investigative methodology, and criminal judgments. He just glanced at it and thought to himself Admired: "I didn't expect Officer Jing to have such a wealth of professional knowledge."
Fortunately, the prince didn't run too far, Bai Ming picked it up, gave him a good lesson, and prepared to return along the same path.
When he turned around, he found a box behind the half-open door, which was the reason why he couldn't open the door just now. There was a shriveled basketball in the box. That basketball was nothing special, but it caught his eye. What's more, the side of the basketball was smeared with a black marker, like a few words, shining brightly under the light, and it was really hard for him to see clearly.
He slowly approached the door, put down the prince in his arms, and drove it out of the room. He gently picked up the basketball, turned the black part to the top, and two prominent characters appeared in front of his eyes. It was two Chinese characters that he was so familiar with that he could no longer be familiar with them.
His name - Bai Ming.
His expression changed immediately, and he stared carefully at the crooked handwriting, which was definitely not written by himself. He turned the basketball around to see if there were any other writings, but at the end, besides his own name, , The surface of the basketball is clean.
Astonishment, apart from astonishment, there is only puzzlement.
He always felt that the black handwriting looked familiar, but he had never seen the words written by Jing Yu.
His mind was running like a storm at the moment, like a search engine, searching through the historical records he had checked over and over again. Suddenly, he had a flash of inspiration, and the engine found a person with a high degree of matching.
Lu Wu...
But what did he write his name for?And put the ball in Jing Yu's home.
Bai Ming couldn't think of a reason, so he had to put the ball down, but the moment he put it down, he caught a glimpse of a slightly yellowed photo in the same box, and the color tone of the photo was at least ten years ago. In [-], the most eye-catching thing was that the photo was only half on the left side. It was obvious that the right side had been torn off and taken away. The torn marks were crooked like jagged teeth, and the white bottom edge was leaking out.
He picked up the photo again and carefully looked at the contents inside.
The background of the photo is a sea of camellias. Wherever the eyes can see, there are blooming everlasting flowers. In the sea of flowers stands a high-spirited young man, and the thin warm sun dances golden flares between the ends of his hair. , There was light in his eyes, and his smile was lively. The wind bulged his pure white short-sleeved shirt and slipped away from his shoulders.
The sea of flowers had just passed the boy's waist, and his smile seemed to have seen the most beautiful thing in the world.
The young man was in his prime, full of heroism, and Bai Ming recognized him at a glance.
"Is this a photo of Police Officer Lu when he was a child?"
Compared with today's tall, mighty, vigor and vigor of the vice-captain of the criminal investigation team, he in the photo is more youthful and energetic.
But this photo was torn in half, and the other half disappeared. Thinking of this, Bai Ming couldn't help but feel a little regretful.
Looking at the boy's arms, his right hand is holding a bottle of orange-flavored soda. The soda is halfway through and still bubbling, but his left hand is holding a small white hand like a catkin. The boy is holding it tightly. Tight, as if declaring to everyone who has seen the photo that this hand belongs to him.
This is the whole content of this half of the photo. The person the boy is leading is torn off, so Bai Ming doesn't know.
There is only one most reasonable explanation. Bai Ming remembered that Lu Wu once told himself that he had someone he liked in his heart, but when he mentioned that person, Lu Wu's expression was solemn, and he didn't want to look back. The other half of this photo, perhaps It was the person Lu Wu was most difficult to let go of.
It's a pity that this photo is old, like a memory from childhood.
Bai Ming suddenly felt a little lost. He didn't know when it started. He seemed to have a strange emotion towards Lu Wu. He couldn't describe this emotion. It was like dependence and yearning. He couldn't control it. It was turbulent when it came, and slow when it went. Although Lu Wu once said that he would never look back on the past, when he saw that there was someone he liked in Lu Wu's heart, his heart fell apart like a bridge washed away by a flood.
The disappointment was only temporary. He put the photo back in its original place, and the more he thought about it, the more something went wrong. Why are there so many Lu Wu's things in Jing Yu's house?
He thought of Jing Yu's appearance of being almost tripped and vaguely introduced when he visited the house on the first day, and that he listened to Lu Wu so much that he not only lowered the rent but also agreed to keep a cat by himself, Bai Ming became suspicious.
Something was wrong, he bent down, and picked up a paper certificate, which showed Lu Wu's name on it, and he picked up a silk banner, which still had Lu Wu's name written on it, every book, every item, Bai Ming opened it and put it back in place. He checked again and again, but he didn't find anything that belonged to Jing Yu. The whole room, or the whole house, belonged to Lu Wu.
Lu Wu once mentioned the friend who died in the line of duty, and it seems that he also lived here.
Bai Ming froze in place, he suddenly remembered Yang Zhong's flustered expression when he mentioned the house in Huabaibang.
He suddenly realized that everyone was cooperating with Lu Wu to hide himself until now.
At this moment, a doorbell interrupted his thinking. He walked out of the so-called secret room, turned off the light, and knocked on the door again. Unfortunately, the lock was broken, so he could only close it lightly.
The person outside the door was Jing Yu. He had not stopped for half a month, and every day he would deliver three dishes and one soup according to Lu Wu's instructions, and he would leave as soon as he was done, without stopping for a second.
Bai Ming took the endless meal at the door, frowned, and hurriedly stopped Jing Yu who turned to leave, and said: "Officer Jing, wait a moment, I, I should pay the rent."
Jing Yu pressed the button to control the elevator, turned around, and said calmly, "No more."
"But I have to pay for the door lock. The door where you put the sundries was crushed by my cat. I can't go out during this time. I can't find a lock changer, so I can only pay you temporarily. "Bai Ming said apologetically as he supported the porch.
Hearing the sundries, Jing Yu was taken aback for a moment, his expressionless face was a little nervous, and he replied: "It's broken? Don't go in first, it's dirty and messy inside, and there are a lot of my messy things. I'll get someone to fix it tomorrow."
Seeing him pretending to be calm and relaxed, Bai Ming probably knew something in his mind, nodded, and calmly said: "I see, you are also busy these days, in addition to various cases in hand, you also have to prepare to play in the basketball league , I have been bothering you all the time, and I feel a little sorry, I have already transferred the rent money, please accept it."
Jing Yu didn't look at him, turned to the elevator, and swallowed, "Ball games or something, Team Lu doesn't care about it anymore, our police can still figure out what's more important now, I can't take the money, you save it yourself first Bar."
Bai Ming's eyes flickered, he lowered his head, and asked softly, "How did your investigation go?"
"The handwriting has been compared. At present, the suspicion of the insiders of Times Evening News can be basically ruled out. The Lu team also ordered to call all the surveillance cameras within a five-kilometer radius, and sent someone to talk to the old man who was involved in the [-]th case. Everything is still in progress."
The investigation process was originally a public security secret, but before Jing Yu came here, he obeyed Lu Wu's order and promised to tell Bai Ming the current situation, and he just told him everything.
Bai Ming stood where he was, wanted to speak but couldn't, with mixed emotions in his heart.
Jing Yu saw that he was melancholy, and knew that he was losing face, so he added: "Captain Lu also said, don't worry, he has made some progress, if you have any questions, call him, although he is busy , I can’t find time, but you can still find him if you are in a hurry, and he will come over as soon as possible.”
He continued: "Also, when it comes to the basketball league, although we haven't rehearsed, we don't have any hope of winning, but after waiting for more than half a month, we also want to work hard and get a good result. It will start in the evening of this weekend, and Team Lu still hopes that you can come to the scene in person, and he will ask Wang Qian to pick you up."
"Officer Lu really has a lot of instructions." Bai Ming smiled, and made a gesture of encouragement with clenched fists, "Don't worry, I will definitely go, and the time for this competition is also well chosen, just for you to relax. I can also improve my mood, thank you for your hard work today, let’s work hard tomorrow.”
The night is as cool as water, and the moonlight sprinkles in the bleak autumn wind. It sprinkles in from the outside of the corridor, dyeing this place into a pearl beach.
The elevator arrived at the 19th floor with a ding, and as the compartment door slowly opened, the lights in the compartment cast Jing Yu's shadow onto the white wall behind him, vividly painted.
Bai Ming put away his yugui-like smile, wrapped his clothes tightly, and could no longer bear the confusion in his heart. Seeing that Jing Yu was about to leave, he took a step forward and said in a panic, "Officer Jing, can I ask you one last question?" Question?"
Jing Yu had already stepped into the elevator with one foot. He stopped and looked sideways at the entrance. The person standing holding the door in the moonlight looked somewhat haggard. He retracted that foot without opening his mouth, as if he had acquiesced. Like an answer.
The door of the compartment was gradually closed, and the projection on the wall also disappeared, and the moonlight became the only light source here again.
"You, are you really my landlord?"
56. League
After a few days of turmoil, although the request to crusade against judge assistants is still a hot topic on the Internet, the popularity has dropped a lot after all. At least Bai Ming is no longer the talk of every Jiangzhou citizen, and he can also wear a hat , go out for a walk occasionally, so that no one will notice.
On the weekend afternoon, the sky was clear and there was no wind or cloud. This is a rare good weather in late autumn. The police seemed to have calculated the weather in advance, so they arranged the game for today.
Bai Ming wore the white peaked cap that he wore the night he was hijacked by Wei Feng. After tidying up a bit, he hurried out. He had hardly seen anyone in the past few days. Thinking that he would see all his friends soon, he felt in his heart Also relieved a lot.
The familiar black car was still parked outside the gate of the community, but the driver was replaced by Wang Qian. She was driving her brother's car, humming and playing with her mobile phone. When she saw Bai Ming walking out of the community, she pulled it off Car window, waved.
Bai Ming trotted over, got into the back seat, and said with a smile: "Officer Wang, long time no see, thank you for coming to pick me up."
"You are too polite." Wang Qian didn't care, and said without thinking, "Brother told me a long time ago, let me take you there in person, he has been looking forward to this day for too long."
The car started and drove towards Jiangzhou Gymnasium.
Bai Ming asked in surprise, "Officer Lu, do you like playing basketball so much?"
Wang Qian laughed gossipingly, "I heard that he has liked it since he was a child, and that the first basketball in his life was given to him by his sweetheart, but these are all rumors in the city bureau. As for whether it is true or not, senior brother Never told us, you know, he has a lot of airs and doesn't talk nonsense to us."
Bai Ming understood and then asked again: "Officer Wang, I heard Lin Jiang said that he is coming too. Did you make an appointment to meet at the gymnasium and go play together?"
As soon as these words came out, Wang Qian's cheeks flushed slightly. Perhaps it was because the inside of the car was hot. She pressed the window, revealing a gap. The breeze was blowing from the outside, which was smoother than a cobblestone.
She pressed the sweat on her forehead, and said embarrassedly: "Yes, yes, we are not interested in basketball games, so we just take advantage of the half day off on weekends to go for a walk outside and chat."
"Then are there still people on duty at the city bureau and the police station?"
"Of course, you can't leave nobody on duty just because you're playing a ball game, but the police force must be a little weak. After all, the backbone of the police force is gathering in the gymnasium to warm up and rehearse."
The peaked cap was pressed tightly, so that the short and thick bangs on Bai Ming's forehead could not be blown away by the wind.
"How are you doing these few days?" Seeing that the person in the back seat was silent, Wang Qian thought that maybe he was still troubled by the previous days, so she asked worriedly.
Bai Ming nodded, smiled lightly, and looked optimistic, "I'm fine, otherwise I wouldn't be in the mood to watch the game."
That bright smile was warmer than the sunset on the glass in front of the car, Wang Qian didn't think too much about it, and comforted her: "If you have something to do, if senior brother can't help you, just come and tell me, don't be afraid of trouble."
"Okay, thank you Officer Wang..." Bai Ming half-jokingly said, "I will definitely go to you and Lin Jiang if I need anything."
Wang Qian was stunned for a moment, her blushing face was like a sunset glow, and she seemed to lose her color. She said, "Just look for me. Why are you looking for him?"
Bai Ming leaned back in the soft chair with a brighter smile, "Are you still separated? I thought he was sticking to you like a rice cake."
These words hit Wang Qian's girlish heart, she hesitated and said: "No, no, don't talk nonsense, it's alright, alright, let's quickly change the subject."
Jiangzhou Gymnasium is located opposite Jiangxin Park. After driving for [-] minutes, the car finally stopped at the entrance of this ingot-like building.
The autumn wind blows the shadows of the trees, and she dances gracefully like a fair lady. She wears the afterglow of the setting sun as her clothes, and bids farewell to the fallen leaves for the coming year.
Wang Qian got out of the car, clapped her hands together, and boasted: "My driving skills are not bad, although I'm not as good as my senior brother.
