Fire to the Abyss
Chapter 41 Ripples
After Lu Yuan bought back the bikini beauty and Pikachu stickers, he was naturally laughed at by Xia Yan pointing at his nose.
Opportunities to laugh at Lu Yuan don't come every year, Xia Yan cherishes them very much, so he spares no effort to carry out the business of ridicule, and even uses the title of Xinxue.
"Hahaha Obuchi, if you like Pikachu, tell Dad, and Dad will buy you as much as you want."
Lu Yuan: "..."
He didn't quite understand this kind of behavior of wanting to be someone else's father when he had nothing to do.
On the way back, Lu Yuan listened to Xia Yan's vivid introduction of Pikachu's various appearances and skills, and he didn't know who liked Pikachu.
Xia Yan, who was spitting all over the place, didn't notice that the man next to him who kept smiling and looking at him was carrying out some kind of secret activity.
Three or ten minutes later, in the Aeoles parking lot, Xia Yan received a plastic lighter with a Pikachu pattern on it, and the yellow thing was violently discharging electricity at him, causing the corners of his mouth to twitch.
Lu Yuan said succinctly, "I'll see you off."
After Lu Yuan handed the lighter to Xia Yan, he selectively ignored his gloomy face, lowered his head and concentrated on picking the fragments of the bikini beauty sticker "corpse" left under his fingernails.
Xia Yan's expression became quite fantastic: "Huh?"
Lu Yuan's expression was indifferent: "If you blow this one, there will be another one. You always have to make a new girlfriend. It's not good to keep using your ex-girlfriend's things."
Xia Yan: "No, what about the beauties in bikinis?"
Lu Yuan: "It would be bad if that kind of pattern was seen by other girls, this one suits you better. Accept it, don't be polite to me."
Xia Yan roared loudly: "Who is being polite to you! How can I match me?!"
"Haha, Captain Xia, don't be so irritable, I have something to leave first."
After Lu Yuan finished speaking, without giving Xia Yan any chance to react, he slipped into the car and stepped on the accelerator, and disappeared, leaving only a desolate Xia Yan standing in place.
Xia Yan took the "Pikachu" lighter and looked at it carefully, and finally put it in his pocket with a complicated expression.
When Lu Yuan returned to the villa in the mountains, he still had a triumphant expression on his face. He took the newly obtained spoils - a photo of Xia Yan sitting on a bench and mocking him. Love it, printed it out, wrote the date on the back, and put it carefully in an old wooden box.
Looking at the thick stack in the wooden box, he sighed, "I'm really hopeless."
Lu Yuan sorted out the stack of photos in the wooden box, making sure that the edges of each photo were perfectly aligned before locking them up and putting them away.
Strange to say, he has long been used to the nocturnal life, so the quality of sleep at night is very poor. In the first half of the night, he will be tortured by all kinds of bizarre nightmares, and only in the second half of the night can he barely fall asleep.But every time he added photos to the wooden box, he would sleep soundly and dreamless all night, as if the wooden box could give him a sense of security in the whole world.
The Chengzhou Detachment has no smoking room, and the office area is non-smoking. The only place where you can smoke a cigarette freely is the leftmost part of the building, halfway up the stairs.The above is a warehouse, except for those who specially come to smoke to refresh their minds, usually few people come.
As usual, Liang Song walked up the stairs lazily, with an unlit cigarette in his mouth, there was already the first customer there.
Xia Yan smiled at Liang Song: "Liang Song, I can't see that you smoke too."
Liang Song nodded slightly, and said lightly, "Occasionally there will be two."
After experiencing the incident of beating up three strong men in the warehouse, Xia Yan has a new understanding of Liang Song's fighting power. After his continuous observation, Liang Song is probably in a good mood when he sees people smiling and saying hello. During this period of time, his state has been maintained in a good mood, and he will greet everyone with a polite smile when he sees him, and he is quite reliable in his work.So he didn't smile at the moment, Xia Yan's face immediately changed, and his tone became tense: "What? Are you in a bad mood today?"
Liang Song didn't answer, but just fumbled around in his various pockets, the surrounding air pressure became lower and lower as his movements continued, Xia Yan unconsciously held his breath.
It has to be said that Liang Song's aura is terrifying at certain times.This kind of fear is different from Xia Yan's. Xia Yan's aura is full of intimidation, but it is basically only useful to those who have ghosts in their hearts.Liang Song's aura does not distinguish between objects, it is a coercion that can send a chill down the back of one's back.In addition, his aura is usually not leaked, and it is wrapped in a gentle and elegant skin, so if it leaks out a little inadvertently, it will appear even more terrifying.
Liang Song's face became more and more irritable, Xia Yan swallowed unconsciously, and asked cautiously, "What's wrong?"
Liang Song said in a deep voice: "Captain Xia, I can't find the lighter, lend me yours."
Like a conditioned reflex, Xia Yan quickly took out the lighter and handed it to him, almost lighting it up for him.Even if Liang Song said he wanted to borrow his life at this time, I'm afraid he would lend it to him without hesitation.
Unexpectedly, the moment Liang Song received the lighter, the haze on his face dissipated.He lit a cigarette, twirled the lighter twice in his finger, and said in his usual gentle tone: "Captain Xia, I can't tell you have unique taste."
Oh, Xia Yan finally decided to take Lu Yuan's suggestion and replace Zippo with Pikachu.
Xia Yan didn't react to Liang Song's miraculous ability to change his face in a second. Before he had time to be embarrassed, Liang Song put the lighter back in his hand and patted his shoulder: "It's cute, it suits you very well."
Xia Yan was about to have a heated debate with Liang Song about "it suits you very well", but Liang Song suddenly let go of his hand on his shoulder, put out the cigarette and went downstairs.
Xia Yan looked surprised: "Oh? Just take a sip?"
Liang Song turned around and smiled at him: "I don't like the smell of cigarettes on my body." After speaking, he disappeared around the corner of the stairs.
"Don't you like the strong smell of cigarettes——?" Xia Yan repeated softly. In his memory, Lu Yuan seemed to have said the same thing. He looked up at the sunlight outside the window, and said to himself, "I'd better wash it off before washing it. Give it back to him."
The leisurely days of commuting to and from get off work on time, smoking cigarettes and going on blind dates didn't last long, and accidents happened one after another. It all started with Nine's discharge from the hospital.
Nine seemed to have a bad physique at first, and the situation in the hospital has not been very good. He was transferred several times, and finally received treatment in a certain hospital in the district. The name of the hospital is kept secret. The district police are directly responsible.The evidence collected from Nine - an encrypted USB flash drive and a strange program on the computer - was also deciphered by a task force formed by the District Criminal Investigation Division.However, the progress has not been smooth. Fortunately, the USB flash drive has completed the decryption process, and it is only a matter of time to crack it. The strange program is a headache, and there is nothing to do without the key.
I heard from Zheng Xing that during the district meeting, Mr. Yang had already threatened several times to resign from the task force's idiot.
And most importantly, Nine's identity has never been verified.
Looks, fingerprints, blood types, whatever you want, but there is no matching information. Bai Wenbin once told Xia Yan, "If this person didn't change his face through technical means, he would hack all kinds of systems. Do it all over again, delete all your information, otherwise, he will just fall from the sky."
The current situation seems to be more inclined that he fell from the sky.
Originally thought that Nine's arrest was an opportunity to eradicate the puppet master in one fell swoop, but from the moment he was arrested to the time he regained consciousness after lying in the hospital for nearly two months, it didn't seem to have any impact on the organization except that he was under the surveillance of others—of course, in the organization The internal ripples are unknown to the police, so it's no wonder that Director Yang is furious.
Since Nine recovered enough to be able to accept interrogation, the task force arranged special shifts to interrogate him, and adopted a shift system, allowing Nine to spend all his time during interrogation except for eating and sleeping.
Even so, I didn't get any useful information from Nine's mouth.He eats well and sleeps soundly every day, and he also adds two fruits after meals.He doesn't look isolated from the world like Zhang Chi, and keeps silent all the time. On the contrary, he talks a lot, and his attitude of answering is quite polite. When it comes to key issues related to the organization, I will cleverly avoid the important ones and pick up some irrelevant words to talk about.However, he revealed a little bit about the program on his computer. He said that he accidentally lost the key, and he also had a headache. He went to the Internet cafe to make a new one.Of course, he only disclosed this information because he felt it was irrelevant.
From the beginning to the end, Nine has an attitude of ease, as if he knows that his life will not be in danger, even a bit as if he knows that someone will come to save him.
Naturally, the special task force also noticed this, and sent an additional team to participate in the finishing.But after all, there are many people in the hospital. If you want to carry out guarding work unobtrusively, you need the police officers to maintain [-]% vigilance. The long-term guarding work will greatly consume the body and spirit of the police officers.After half a month like this, the police officers were a bit overwhelmed. Fortunately, Nine was finally approved to be discharged from the hospital.
Just when the task force breathed a sigh of relief for sending Nine safely into the cage, the Chengzhou Detachment received a call to the police.
It was He Rong who answered the phone. She just woke up from her lunch break. Although her body responded when she heard the ringtone, her consciousness was still not clear. Say "Hello".
A man's high-pitched cry came from the receiver, and Yang Ming heard it from his own seat. He scared all the drowsy people in He Rong's head on the spot. Her hands trembled, and the receiver almost fell from the slipped between fingers.
He Rong adjusted her posture, held the receiver away from her ears, and asked patiently: "Sir, calm down and speak slowly, I can't hear you clearly if it's too fast."
The man on the phone was crying indiscriminately, but He Rong didn't hear a word.
The man paused for a while, and there was a rustling sound from the receiver, as if he was taking a deep breath to calm himself down. After a while, the man reorganized his words: "It's like this, my wife—no, my fiancée is missing, She didn't go to work today, the phone can't get through, there is a mask and decorations on her bag in the parking lot, I... I suspect she was kidnapped..."
The man's voice was already choked up when he said this. He Rong took care of his emotions and tried to make her voice sound gentle: "Sir, don't worry, please provide the basic information of your fiancée."
The man slowly answered He Rong's words. He Rong held the microphone between his shoulders and wrote down the information he said on the paper.
After the incident was over, He Rong comforted him a few words and told him that the investigators would be here soon, so he hung up the phone with some reluctance.
He Rong hung up the phone and let out a long breath: "Alas - I'm so tired of holding my throat and talking."
Yang Ming came out at the right time and flattered her: "Rongrong, it's really nice of you to talk like that."
As soon as Yang Ming finished speaking, he heard He Rong's extremely rough and unrestrained words: "Hold the grass!"
Yang Ming didn't feel that his flattery was not done well, so he looked over suspiciously, and saw He Rong's expression as if struck by lightning.
"Rongrong, what's wrong?"
Trembling, He Rong handed over the note that had just written down the missing person's information in his hand. Yang Ming took it over and glanced at it, and immediately sighed in the same style as He Rong.
There is only a short line on the note: Zhong Qing, female, 29, phone xxxxxx, Room 2, Block B, Shuangzi Community, No. 1204 Chenghuan Road, lecturer at Chengzhou University.
Opportunities to laugh at Lu Yuan don't come every year, Xia Yan cherishes them very much, so he spares no effort to carry out the business of ridicule, and even uses the title of Xinxue.
"Hahaha Obuchi, if you like Pikachu, tell Dad, and Dad will buy you as much as you want."
Lu Yuan: "..."
He didn't quite understand this kind of behavior of wanting to be someone else's father when he had nothing to do.

Xia Yan: "No, what about the beauties in bikinis?"
Lu Yuan: "It would be bad if that kind of pattern was seen by other girls, this one suits you better. Accept it, don't be polite to me."
Xia Yan roared loudly: "Who is being polite to you! How can I match me?!"
"Haha, Captain Xia, don't be so irritable, I have something to leave first."
