Fire to the Abyss

Chapter 23 LUNA

Xia Yan spent a New Year's Eve at Lu Yuan's house with a stern face, and got up early in the morning on the first day of the new year to try all the objects in the villa that can lie on people, and got a softness comparison chart: sofa on the first floor < indoor sofa on the second floor < two Floor balcony sofa < room bed.

Of course, the softest one among them is several orders of magnitude more comfortable than the hard bed board at home.

Only Xia Yan in Lu Yuan's master bedroom hadn't judged it yet. Even though he felt itchy, he still didn't have the nerve to try it. The main reason was that he still had a little bit of shame left.

When Lu Yuan heard the movement, he opened the door from the master bedroom. When Xia Yan passed by him, he pretended to glance inside casually, and his gaze was immediately attracted by the luxurious big bed.Xia Yan immediately made a decision in his heart, the bed in the master bedroom is definitely the softest in the whole villa, because it is a water bed.

Xia Yan felt that compared with Lu Yuan, he was too rough and too poor, he was called Wenxiang Soft Pillow.

Xia Yan said angrily as he went downstairs: "Let me tell you, if you sleep on a bed that is too soft, you will become weak!"

Lu Yuan followed down the stairs in a daze, unable to understand the sourness in the words of a poor man who slept on a hard bed all year round, he went to the kitchen to prepare breakfast for the two of them naturally, and efficiently made a table full of breakfast , It's not like someone who hasn't slept all night.

Xia Yan didn't feel restrained at all at someone else's house. He enjoyed Lu Yuan's caring service like a grandpa. On the first day of the new year, he ate the most exquisite breakfast in the past 30 years, and he didn't ask for New Year's money and didn't leave any money. , After finishing the work, he patted his belly very casually and slipped away.

I really can't stay anymore, Xia Yan has already seen through this dilapidated villa, it is simply a well-packaged luxury, if I stay again, I don't want to leave, and what is going on with Lu Yuan's virtuous daughter-in-law's sense of sight ?

In the next few days, Xia Yan circled among various seven aunts and eight aunts.

Although Xia Lin also accompanied him around several households, Xia Yan, as the oldest young man with problems, could become the target of public criticism wherever he went, and asked three questions every day: How is your girlfriend talking?When will you be married?How much have you saved?

Xia Yan replied in a broken way: "My girlfriend broke up, I don't want to get married anymore, and I don't have a dime in savings."

Then there was a meal of chicken soup for the soul, which made him a little overnourished.

He doesn't know whether a soft bed can make people weak, but living like this will definitely make him weak, and he might even go crazy.

According to Chief Zheng's intention, Xia Yan was asked to take off the annual leave of last year, the year before last, and the year before last. In that way, he could at least spend the Lantern Festival at home, but this person probably has been working hard all his life and has nothing to do at home For a few days, I felt uncomfortable all over, and even had a little insomnia.

So he reported to the detachment with a large box of pastries on the seventh day of the Lunar New Year.

The pastry was brought by Xia Lin, who said that there were too many in the dormitory to eat.When Xia Yan took it, he saw the logo printed on the gift box, which was the Li Tangji in Changmenkou that he had mentioned to Xu Luo, and immediately decided that he would recognize his younger brother even if he was bent into a bow-- such a good child as Xu Luo. Where can I find it?

But the strange thing is that after a year, I haven't seen him for more than ten days. The whole Chengzhou detachment is weird.

The first is Old Zhao from the duty room. He saw Xia Yan walk into the courtyard from afar, took out a pack of unopened cigarettes from the drawer, held it in his hand and handed it to Xia Yan as if paying tribute, his wrinkled face tensed. With an ugly smile: "Captain Xia, Happy New Year!"

Xia Yan took the cigarette and looked at it. Old Zhao just bought this cigarette to smoke on happy occasions. Every time Xia Yan slavishly asked him to ask for it, he would only give one. This time, he actually gave him a whole box.Xia Yan expressed that he was flattered, and took out a pastry from the box and handed it to Lao Zhao as a return gift.However, the taste buds of most people in this world are still normal. In the Quancheng Prefecture Team, Team Xia’s taste cells are relatively unrestrained, and can withstand Li Tangji’s dim sum—the legendary sweetness that makes teeth fall out, and is insanely sweet. , A heinous restaurant, invincible in all dark cuisines.

When Xia Yan handed it out, he was already prepared to be rejected. He originally planned to put it in the office to destroy it by himself, but he really couldn't feel anything else that could be sent out.

Unexpectedly, Lao Zhao took the small piece of cake from Xia Yan naturally, as if he didn't realize that what he took in his hand was a dark dish that made people talk about it, and then Lao Zhao took it in front of Xia Yan. Yanmian tore open the packaging bag, took a small bite, his expression twisted and he couldn't speak.The direction of the creases on his face has changed, I don't know whether it is because of embarrassment or emotion.

Xia Yan gave Lao Zhao a thumbs up, put away his cigarettes and entered the detachment hall.

Xia Yan arrived relatively late, and almost everyone in the detachment was there. They were surprised to see Xia Yan coming in, and then everyone looked at him with smiles on their faces as if they had met the president.Even when Xia Yan took out the dark dishes to share again, no one refused, they were all like Lao Zhao, their facial features were messed up after eating, and no one scolded their mothers.

Xia Yan said in his heart: Do they all want to ask me to borrow money?Or did they collectively do something sorry for me?Or ask me for everything?

After much deliberation, Xia Yan couldn't figure it out, everyone's faces were so twisted that they couldn't speak, the performances all over the room really hurt their eyes, so they had to go back to their office.

Not long after, Yue Mo's energy was almost slowed down, and everyone in the team lined up with various things, saying it was a New Year's gift for him.Then Xia Yan received snacks, fruits, trinkets, movie tickets, game coins, barbecue shop coupons, a small pot of prickly pear...

Xia Yan didn't feel any fear of not being rewarded for his meritorious deeds. Instead, he raised his legs and ate the tribute generously. It was right that everyone went to the ophthalmology department together, and finally found out that he is a wise and stalwart leader.

There were no cases at the beginning of the year, Xia Yan was so idle in the office that he almost grew his hair, he picked up the prickly pear and looked at it, and touched the thorns of the prickly prickly pear.

Xia Yan raised his bleeding finger and sighed, "Oh, it's so thorny!"

"Bad omen!" Zhang Chi just pushed the door open and came in. Seeing Xia Yan's bloody idea, he immediately shouted, rushed up and pinched Xia Yan's hand, "Captain Xia, it's unlucky to be popular this year!"

"Really? Red on top of red, I think it's auspicious." Xia Yan pulled out his hand, took a paper towel and wiped it casually, then crumpled the paper towel dyed "auspicious" and gave it a parabolic motion .

Zhang Chi looked like he hated iron but not steel: "Is this blood red and festive red the same thing? I don't want you to be so outspoken! I don't know how to say hello, oh..."

Xia Yan doesn't believe in any punctuation marks in Zhang Chi's metaphysics except for his crow's mouth.For example, if he said that it will not rain today, then it will definitely rain; if he said that there will be no murders today, then there will definitely be murders.Zhang Chi has a special aura on his body called "whatever you guess, it will definitely come". It is a bad omen to say it categorically like this, and the credibility is not high.

Xia Yan smiled: "Okay Brother Zhang, no matter whether it's a bad omen or not, he will live and die with that bag of garbage, and you want to give me something too?"

Zhang Chi rubbed his hands, with an unnaturally nervous expression on his face: "No, I didn't prepare anything, the big guy sent me here mainly."

"Oh wait," Xia Yan squinted at Zhang Chi: "Brother Chi, you must have slipped what you shouldn't have said."

A second before Zhang Chi was staring straight at him, he let out a long sigh of relief when he heard the last sentence, and his expression relaxed: "How is that possible? My mouth is tighter than a crack in a stone. Everyone I was sent here to ask you to have a dinner together tonight, and by the way, I would like to ask you what kind of girl you like, and I will help you find someone, didn't you just hear Yang Ming say that you are broken in love..."

Xia Yan listened well to the first half of the paragraph, but only after hearing the second half did he understand everyone's intentions, and almost rolled off the chair——I dare say that the big guy is so hot on him, it's not because he suddenly went to the ophthalmology department, but It was out of sympathy for an older youth who had just lost love.

Xia Yan felt that the tribute he ate just now was not so smooth, and his limp heart began to respond, and Yang Ming, who was out of mouth, owed a kick again.

There were no cases on this day, no progress in the old case, and it was relatively loose to go to work after the year. Xia Yan became a protected animal in the team for a short time because of a broken relationship. , I could run away with just a breath, and Xia Lin also took a few days off and didn't come, and there wasn't even anyone to find fault with.

After a few unhealthy meetings, Xia Yan got off work on time. Zhang Chi repeatedly asked him to meet at Chengyun Winery at seven o'clock in the evening when he got off work. Everyone's kindness is still too embarrassing to refuse.

Anyway, being idle is idle, Xia Yan listened to Zhang Chi's words, tidied up his untidy hairstyle all year round, shaved his beard carefully, dug out the most formal coat in the closet, and cruelly changed it out of his body to keep warm and practical. He took off his military overcoat and wiped his leather shoes, and went out with a human appearance.

Looking at the faces alone, Xia Yan and Xia Lin are five or six points similar. Although they don't look very stunning at first glance, they belong to the attractive type of players, and they are the type that becomes more comfortable the more you look at them.The difference is that Xia Lin is a slow person, and Xu Luo has been used to it for the past few years. She has a lazy temperament in every gesture, like a pampered fat cat.Xia Yan is an impatient person. The rough life of the police force has sharpened a nearly harsh heroic spirit.As long as he keeps his face sullen and doesn't speak, he will naturally exude an aura of calmness and prestige.After careful tidying, his messy hair on both sides was neatly pasted behind his ears, his brows were slanted into his temples, and the heroic spirit hidden between his brows was fully revealed.

Xia Yan was wearing a formal overcoat, and just walked on the road with a steady and square step. With a camera, he could directly shoot a law-enhancing educational film.

Xia Yan arrived on time, and Yang Ming was already waiting for him at the hotel entrance.

Xia Yan maintained his serious image with a sullen face on purpose: "How about it, isn't your brother handsome? Many little sisters turn their heads on the road!"

Yang Ming looked him up and down, and made an objective evaluation: "Handsome is handsome, but the word 'police' seems to be written on his face, and he has no affinity at all."

Xia Yan raised the corner of his mouth: "How about this?"

Yang Ming: "You have this expression when you want to get someone to say something."

"what about now?"

"You look like this when you comfort the victim's family."

"..."

Xia Yan stopped struggling and followed Yang Ming to the hotel expressionlessly.He glanced casually, and suddenly found that the figure of a person at the door of the hotel next door was very familiar, a bit like the man he rescued in the cemetery a few days ago, he unconsciously took a second look, thinking that it would not be such a coincidence Him?

With his back facing him, the man was dressed in a black suit and stood upright, as if he was waiting for someone. From Xia Yan's perspective, he could see the black earring on his left ear and a temple on his ear.

Lu Yuan usually doesn't wear glasses or earrings, Xia Yan immediately denied the possibility that that person is Lu Yuan, laughing at himself in his heart: How can I be sick with Missing, everyone looks like Lu Yuan, this is a sickness rule.

Xia Yan was just about to look back when a woman wrapped in a red coat came out from the hotel lobby. The woman had a curvy figure and walked straight to the man just now. Walk to the parking lot together.

This angle is just enough for Xia Yan to see their faces clearly.

The woman has delicate makeup, is wrapped in a scarf embroidered with gold thread on a white background, and is stepping on a pair of shiny black high heels, revealing her shapely and slender legs.With black hair and red lips, the image perfectly interprets the words "sexy stunner". Few men will not take a second look at such a woman.

And the man next to her, through the lens, can clearly see the pair of radiant peach blossom eyes, combined with the slightly raised arc of the thin lips, the whole face looks indescribably charming, Xia Yan really can't think of anyone other than Lu Yuan And wearing glasses so criminal.

Xia Yan felt that he was a little abnormal after seeing Lu Yuan wearing a police uniform. After that, no matter what Lu Yuan wore, his first reaction was to associate people with special professions, even though he knew it was very inappropriate for a policeman to do so. , but no cure has been found so far.

Even though Xia Yan has no research on fashion outfits, he can easily see that the matching of the two is very suitable. For example, the gold thread on the woman's scarf matches Lu Yuan's golden glasses frame very well. The red pattern on the tie matches the color of the woman's coat very well.

Xia Yan's eyes followed the two of them until they got into a black car whose price seemed to be Xia Yan's ten-year salary. On the way, they saw Lu Yuan's especially gentle smile when he opened the door for a woman.

Xia Yan cursed in a low voice: "Bah, gentle scum."

He suddenly felt a sense of loneliness with no clear meaning, and he felt a little uncomfortable. He wondered if it was the reason why he was single even though he had a partner all over the world.

"Captain Xia, what's the matter? What are you looking at?" Seeing that he hadn't followed, Yang Ming called out.

"It's nothing." Xia Yan came back to his senses. The lovely bachelor Yang Ming looked very friendly. He enthusiastically embraced Yang Ming's shoulder and entered the restaurant. He didn't notice that when a black car passed by behind him, the driver ignored the traffic. Rules, looked sideways at him several times.

The woman in the co-pilot couldn't help asking: "Lu Yuan, what are you looking at?"

Lu Yuan smiled: "It's nothing, I seem to have seen that person somewhere before."
