I come from the abyss

A man was wandering downstairs of Li Zan's apartment, followed Jiang Heng into the elevator, stood in the corner and glanced at Jiang Heng's back from time to time, as soon as the elevator opened and followed him out, he quickened his pace and just touched Jiang Heng's shoulder. The person was thrown to the ground, his shoulders were firmly pressed down by Jiang Heng's knees, he had to move, and he was still a little out of breath.

"Don't—I, I mean no harm!"

Jiang Heng: "Who are you?"

The man took off his mask and hurriedly said, "I'm Zhao Yanli's assistant videographer... I'm Zhao Yanli, a reporter from Minsheng TV Station, do you know her? The woman who was forced to post a video by gangsters at Fubaolai Restaurant that day."

Jiang Heng let go of the man: "What are you doing here?"

Man: "I'm here to find Captain Li."

Jiang Heng: "How do you know that Captain Li lives here?"

The man showed an embarrassing expression on his face: "Zhao Ji, she has been staying secretly - either she followed Captain Li on purpose, or she just happened to have a friend living in this apartment, and she happened to see it when she sent her friend back, so she brought me here a few times I stayed for a while, because Team Li’s daily life was very boring, so I gave up after staying for two days.”

Jiang Heng: "What do you want from him?"

The man slapped his head and said, "Zhao Ji is missing!"

***

In the living room of the apartment, Jiang Heng took a glass of water from Li Zan: "Internet public opinion has reversed, and the traces of the trolls are obvious. They went to Zhao Yanli. She was suspended, and her friends and relatives couldn't be contacted. She dragged her assistant to check. It was found that her suitcase, bank card, ID card and other personal items were missing, and a note left by her was found in the small decoration behind the door, the content was to let anyone who saw it find you."

Li Zan: "Apart from coming to see me, nothing else?"

Jiang Heng: "If you say yes, you will know."

Li Zan was thoughtful: "I can probably guess something." He leaned on Jiang Heng's back and looked at the computer in operation: "What is this?"

"Perform work functions regularly, and wait for Huo Wenying's call by the way."

"Huo Wenying's mind was pierced mercilessly by you in person, and his mental and emotional breakdown is expected to be to a certain extent, but two days are enough for him to recover. He has no choice but you."

Choosing open cooperation instead of secret use means that some aspects cannot be concealed, and Jiang Heng and Li Zan are one, which means that Huo Wenying's plan is likely to be known by the police and destroyed.

Of course, Huo Wenying needed to consider a way out, and then he would understand that he and Cheng Bei had no way out.

When Cao Cao arrived, the phone on the desktop showed an incoming call, Jiang Heng picked it up and put it on the outside, and Huo Wenying's rather depressed voice sounded: "Talk?"

"time and location."

Huo Wenying said a very confidential address and meeting time, and hung up the phone after leaving a sentence of "I can take someone with me".

Li Zan: "Did he trust you and me too much, or did he finally bow to the police?"

Jiang Heng: "It may also be because your reputation is not very good."

Li Zan raised his eyebrows.

Jiang Heng tried to explain: "On the surface, you are portrayed as a new star in the police circle of Yuejiang City, but it's just a thought. Breaking away from the team, acting on your own, disobeying orders, and thinking too much, it's easy to accept that they don't contact the police A request to cooperate with you."

Li Zan looked at Jiang Heng: "There is some truth to it. The surname Huo is very sensible, and he can see that I am a bohemian soul under the halo of glory."

Jiang Heng chose to remain silent at this time, and then changed the subject: "I see that the suitcase was taken out by you... Is there a mission to go out of the province?"

Li Zan patted Jiang Heng on the shoulder and said, "Go to your hometown."

"HK?"

"The mastermind behind the scenes is lurking in the upper echelons of HK. There are possibilities in the political, police, and business circles. I am more inclined to the former two. Besides, Huo Wenying also means to use your Jiang family's influence in HK, and the focus of the planned performance stage is also in HK. , still have to go."

"I also wanted to take you home to meet Ms. Liang, and I just had the opportunity."

Li Zan rubbed his fingers unconsciously when he heard the words: "Time is running out, it's not polite to leave immediately after seeing each other, and the target of this mission is vicious and perverted, it's not easy to deal with, I'm afraid it would be bad if my aunt is involved."

Jiang Heng turned his head to stare at Li Zan, and asked abruptly, "Are you afraid?"

Li Zan waved his hand, glanced elsewhere, coping with ease and calmly: "I just feel impolite and unsafe."

Jiang Heng: "Don't worry, Ms. Liang, why haven't you seen any turmoil? When my father was still alive, some of the family's unclean properties were forcibly cut down, some people's jobs were smashed, and they were threatened a lot. I remember the highest record was one day. From seven or eight assassinations to the number of assassinations and the kidnapping of family members four times in one month, Ms. Liang was kidnapped no less than four times in the first half of her life."

Li Zan had a strange expression: "Your mother hasn't divorced yet?"

Jiang Heng spoke softly: "Ms. Liang was fostered by her uncles since she was a child, and her uncles are the backbone elders of Xinji."

Xinji is one of the three major h gangs in HK. They are basically whitewashed and only do legal affairs.

"During the time my father passed away, he bullied our orphans and widows and made every effort to make things worse. It was very turbulent. I was responsible for sweeping up opponents in the upper class, family and business fields, and Ms. Liang was responsible for sweeping down some of the community forces below. Including the natal family who tried to divide the interests in turn, that is, Xinji. He personally removed the leader and cronies at the time, and quickly supported a group of his own people to the top."

Li Zan had a complicated expression: "Ling Cizhen is a heroine."

Jiang Heng smiled: "She doesn't really like to fight and kill. Remember to praise her for her gentle demeanor and strong book scent, like a cultural person."

Li Zan rarely had a look of embarrassment on his face: "Why don't you tell me about my aunt's hobbies and temperament?"

Jiang Heng: "Ms. Liang likes you very much, you don't have to be too nervous - where do you start? Let me think about it..."

Moths from nowhere flew to tall buildings in this October day, bumping their heads blindly against the glass outside the window. The sound of impacting again and again was quite frequent, accompanied by whispers in the room until night fell.

Yuejiang City Xiushan Suburb·Resort Villa.

The highly private holiday villa has beautiful scenery and few people. It is fresh, pleasant, quiet and peaceful. It is one of the places where the middle and upper class in Yuejiang City can relax. It is also the place where Huo Wenying met Jiang Heng.

Jiang Heng and Li Zan asked the front desk service, and were led to one of the rooms, knocked on the door, and bumped into Cheng Beiyu's more beautiful face in the morning light.

"come in."

After closing the door, Cheng Bei quietly passed Jiang Heng and the two, and sat on the tatami mat, his back straight, his black hair rolled up, revealing a white and attractive neck.

This is a trained posture, which has been ingrained in the bones for a long time, and it is still difficult to change even if you no longer serve others with sex.

The decoration inside the house tends to be in a gentle style. There is a sliding door in front of the door. Behind the door is the corridor, courtyard and dry landscape scenery in the courtyard. Huo Wenying sits cross-legged on a tatami mat and in front of a low table with his back to the courtyard.

On the table are sake, wine glasses and a vase, in which there is only a cluster of wild chrysanthemums.

Jiang Heng and Li Zan took the remaining two seats and sat down. Cheng Bei poured wine from the flagon, but Jiang Heng refused: "I came by car." Then he turned to Li Zan, but was also refused: "Is there any water?"

Cheng Bei was stunned for a moment, nodded and said yes, and fetched water.

Li Zan took the bottle, looked at the sign, and said with a smile, "Very expensive mineral water."

Huo Wenying: "No matter how expensive things are, they are worthy of you."

Li Zan rubbed his arms: "Mr. Huo, Mr. Huo, we know each other well, and we don't have to be too formal when we get along. I'm an uneducated, ordinary person, and I'm not used to being called respectfully, let alone being flattered by others. I'm still used to being called a bad policeman." , Tiaozi."

Huo Wenying laughed: "Team Li is indeed as eclectic as the rumors say."

Li Zan sighed silently, so he didn't like to deal with businessmen, and praising people was as uncomfortable as yin and yang.

"You and I are well aware of the purpose of today's conversation, so why don't you come and fight with me and get straight to the point?"

Huo Wenying picked up the wine glass and sniffed it, and said, "You have the final say."

Li Zan lowered his eyes, a little bored, and his expression was cold: "Pushing and pushing is boring, so forget it."

Huo Wenying looked at Jiang Heng: "Jiang Sheng, since you brought Team Li here, I will automatically regard you as willing to cooperate with me unilaterally, rather than with the entire police system, but before you nod, shouldn't you show some sincerity to let me Can I trust you?"

"Sincerity?" Jiang Heng read, and chuckled softly: "Isn't it my sincerity to come to the appointment? It is of no benefit to me to cooperate with you."

Huo Wenying: "Mr. Song's power infiltrated into HK is far beyond your imagination. Once he comes to power, he will definitely support his own power and turn to suppress other competitors, especially the families that are pro-inland and pro-China. It's better to deal with him at this critical time." I will deal with it in a hurry in the future, and I am the best partner."

Jiang Heng smiled quietly, Li Zan looked at the calm faces of the two, tapped the mineral water bottle with his index finger, just watching the good show and not getting involved.

In the end, it was Huo Wenying who was defeated first: "An extra help means a chance of winning. I am very sincere, and I will not hesitate to use the entire Xiangyang Group as a pawn in front of you."

Jiang Heng sighed slightly: "It's useless for you to ask me to be sincere. You should ask Team Li yourself. I can't make decisions for him."

Huo Wenying was taken aback, and subconsciously looked at Li Zan.

Li Zan also looked back with a smile, his expression was exactly the same as that of Jiang Heng's. Huo Wenying was a little terrified to see it. One Jiang Heng is difficult enough to deal with, how about another one?

Huo Wenying bit the bullet: "Captain Li—"

"It is my mission to arrest Mr. Song, and it is also the object of revenge that I have been planning for many years."

"You are a rising star in the police force. I heard that you grew up in the police force. Why do you still have a grudge against Mr. Song?" Huo Wenying hesitated a little, obviously not convinced.

creak.

The well-articulated hand firmly grasped the mineral water bottle, the back of the hand protruded with blue veins, and the body of the bottle was distorted out of shape. Li Zan still smiled: "My parents, relatives and friends died because of Mr. Song, is it considered a grudge?"

Huo Wenying's eyelids twitched.

"Xiang Yang's parents were silenced after witnessing an execution-style shooting, and my parents died in this shooting operation. Is there any reason?"

Huo Wenying looked complicated: "Enough."

"You just said that Xiang Yang's parents died at the hands of Mr. Song?"

"In 2000, Xiang Yang became an orphan at the age of six." His parents died in the same year.

Huo Wenying's hands were trembling: "Does Xiangyang know?" Does she know that Mr. Song is her enemy?Did she know that she became the lover of the enemy who killed her parents?

Too cruel.

The truth is far crueler than it is supposed to be.

Why is fate so cruel to Xiang Yang alone?

"None of us know."

"She may have known."

The three of them looked at Cheng Bei who had been silent all this time, and he raised his eyes and said word by word: "I guess Xiang Yang knew that Mr. Song was her enemy some time before his death. If you don't care about things and continue to be Mr. Song's lover, maybe you will be taken with you because you are well-behaved and sensible."

In this way, Xiang Yang had the opportunity to take revenge with his own hands.

But she finally chose to give up, giving up with difficulty and pain, and instead gave the only chance to the others in Qingshan Red Pavilion, choosing to save them.

"It's like the person Huo Jingshan first set his eyes on was Xiangyang, and the person who looks the most like Huo Jingshan's deceased eldest son is also Xiangyang, but she tried every means to find out the behavior habits of Huo Jingshan's eldest son, taught you in private, and called you Performing in front of Huo Jingshan is like giving you the opportunity."

Huo Wenying's whole body was trembling, and suddenly he covered his eyes, and a few drops of wet marks fell on the table.

"How do you know this? How do you know it? Why...don't tell me?"

"Because Xiangyang also taught me that she hoped that Huo Jingshan would adopt both of us. After all, both genders are boys, but she didn't understand that Huo Jingshan was never a real charity person, and she didn't understand that the two substitutes were to expose Huo Mrs. A hole in the self-deception lie.”

Huo Jingshan wanted a substitute son to help him comfort Mrs. Huo's heart, but the two would only exacerbate Mrs. Huo's mental deterioration, so he only wanted one.

"Why did Huo Jingshan choose me? Brother, your talent for imitation has been great since you were young——"

The eager words stopped abruptly in Cheng Bei's calm and gentle eyes when he looked over.

Huo Wenying is the youngest, Xiang Yang is their eldest sister, who often takes care of the two younger brothers, Cheng Bei is the elder brother, and he should also take care of the only younger brother.

In the silent room, Huo Wenying, a 1.8-meter-old man, was crying like a child who lost a toy. Cheng Bei held his head, patted his back tenderly, and looked at the golden sunlight pouring into the room, as if Seeing the three children who depended on each other at the beginning, one of the older beautiful girls always regarded herself as the eldest sister, and carried out the belief of taking care of her younger brothers and sisters all her life, taking care of him, Huo Wenying, and the children in the Red Pavilion, and she remained unchanged until her death .
