never forget [criminal investigation]

"Why isn't this person here?" Xing Yue glanced at the phone again.

A whole day passed, and Xiang Hai never showed up again.

"What kind of meeting, do you want to open it for a day?" Xing Yue doubted Zhou Xun's work efficiency.

This is an older person, the bureaucratic atmosphere is a bit heavy, and he is addicted to meetings.Things that can be done in three or two sentences, he has to drag others to accompany him to chat endlessly.

In the afternoon, he really couldn't hold back, and sent a few messages to Xiang Hai, but it was like a stone sinking into the sea.

He was also embarrassed to make a phone call, not to mention affecting people's work, but also seemed to be very clingy.

But it was getting dark, and there was still no news from Xiang Hai.

Luo Meihua is fully awake and can eat more or less.

Xing Yue hired a nurse, and had dinner with Luo Meihua, and told her to come back early tomorrow morning and prepare to go home.

Before leaving, Luo Meihua was still asking, why didn't I see Xiang Hai?

Xing Yue told the truth, "There is something wrong in the bureau today."

"If you have something to do in the unit, go and do it. I have a nurse here, so there's nothing to worry about. You don't have to come here all the time."

Luo Meihua saw that he was bored sitting around all day today, he was always out of his mind, and kept looking at his phone.And when it comes to taking care of her as a patient, Xing Yue actually can't help much.She didn't want to keep him here.

"Isn't today the weekend, I have nothing to do." Xing Yue said and glanced at the phone again.

It's impossible to say nothing.People want to rest, but work is like a 7*24 assembly line.As long as you don't feel tired, there is always work to do.

Among other things, at the end of the day, He Xionghui called him countless times.If he didn't answer, it changed to SMS bombing.Until the old man ran out of power.

Those text messages were worded viciously, with all kinds of uncivilized terms and exclamation points intertwined, pinching them together can spell out an essay, the core content of which is: You boy followed me, stole Zhao Wenyu, injured my little brother, and burned Lao Huang’s house, You are not fucking human!If it delays my dad's release from prison, I'll fucking kill you!You wait, this matter is not over!

His anger is understandable, and of course Xing Yue doesn't care about these threats at all.

There are many cases waiting for him to worry about, and this episode of He Xionghui is not on the agenda at all.

After leaving the hospital, Xing Yue drove directly downstairs to Xiang Hai's house.

The balcony window was dark, indicating that there was no one at home.

But he still doesn't give up, maybe Xiang Hai has come back and accidentally fell asleep?

"Xiao Hai?" He opened the door with the key, and was greeted by darkness.

He turned on the light, called, and walked around the empty room twice, but there was no one there.

"Fuck, I really don't believe it." Xing Yue returned to the car and drove all the way to the branch office.

He wants to see it with his own eyes, what are the anti-drug gang doing?This will be open, longer than the Spring Festival Gala.

Shouldn't it be that there is something else to do, force it to Xiang Hai to do it?Just like the last time he was thrown into the detention center and locked up with those gangsters.Model workers don't take orders like that.

On weekend nights, the bureau’s office building is still brightly lit.

Xing Yue went to his office first.It was very lively inside, four young people were eating watermelon around the table.Among them, Zhang Xiaowei gnawed the most.

Hearing the movement, Zhang Xiaowei turned his head and saw that it was Xing Yue, he gnawed a couple of bites, threw the melon rind away, and rushed over with open arms, "Brother Xing!"

Xing Yue stopped him unceremoniously, pulled two tissues and stuffed them into his hands.

Zhang Xiaowei smiled, wiped the watermelon water off his hands, and wiped his mouth again, "Brother Xing, Lao Qin has told us all about your heroic deeds! You are so awesome! I admire you so much!"

Looking at Xing Yue's face again, "But brother Xing, when will your eye shadow go down? It won't leave scars!"

Xing Yue ignored him, and glanced at the table, "Where did you get the watermelon?"

"Old Tang sent it iced!" Zhang Xiaowei said while pulling him to the table, "Brother Xing, you can eat a piece too, it's so sweet."

"Old Tang is here?"

"Yeah, I just left for a while. If you had come earlier, you might have met."

"What are you doing here if you don't go home?" Xing Yue happened to be thirsty too, so he picked up a small piece of watermelon and began to bite.

"Tian Xiang and I were watching Zhao Wenyu in the hospital. When we came back in the afternoon, Cheng Liang and Wu Hao went over instead." Zhang Xiaowei picked up another piece of watermelon.

"Thank you." Xing Yue glanced at Tian Xiang.

He was not in the bureau for the past two days, and everyone was still busy as usual.

Tian Xiang held the watermelon and smiled sheepishly.

"What about you two?" Xing Yue asked Liu Zhaoning and Wang Bin again.

"There was a robbery case in the afternoon, and we just came back from the scene." Liu Zhaoning put down the watermelon rind and reported while wiping his hands.

Xing Yue nodded, "Have you all eaten?"

The four people looked at each other, and then they all looked at Xing Yue knowingly, and smiled, "Not yet, Brother Xing."

Xing Yue also laughed, and threw the watermelon rind into the trash can, "Clean up this and go eat. Eat something good, and I'll reimburse you when I come back."

"Okay!" The four of them were all happy, and quickly cleaned up a table of melon skins.

"By the way, Xiaowei, are the anti-drug people in a meeting? Have you seen Zhou Xun?"

"No!" Zhang Xiaowei blinked, "I didn't see Team Zhou, but I saw Li Chao this afternoon. It seems that they didn't have a meeting. I think those meeting rooms have been empty all the time."

"Oh." Xing Yue frowned slightly, turned and left the office.

"Hey Brother Xing, don't you want to eat with us?" Zhang Xiaowei called him from behind.

"I've eaten, you go."

The lights in the anti-drug office were also on, but only Li Chao and two other policemen were there.

"Is Zhou Xun not here?" Xing Yue glanced around and asked Li Chao.

"No." Li Chao stood up from his seat, "Team Zhou went to the Municipal Bureau early in the morning, and now...should go home."

Xing Yue was even more puzzled, and asked again, "Then did you see Xiang Hai?"

"No." Li Chao shook his head, "I came here this morning, and I didn't see Xiang Hai."

"Team Xing, do you have something to do with Team Zhou?" Li Chao felt that Xing Yue had an expression on his face that he would not stop until he was found out.

"Oh, it's nothing, you can be busy. Thank you." Xing Yue nodded to him and went downstairs.

Back in the car, Xing Yue turned on the ignition and stepped on the accelerator hard.

This Zhou Xun must be up to something!I went to the city bureau meeting by myself, took Xiang Hai with me, and covered his mouth to prevent him from talking to me.

No need to ask, he was definitely heading for Jiang Yuan.

Thinking of Jiang Yuan, Xing Yue has a psychological shadow.This person must still be thinking about getting Xiang Hai to be an undercover agent.

Oh shit.Those words that I told you earlier were in vain.

Jiang Yuan and Zhou Xun, the two old fritters, sang and brainwashed, Xiang Hai must have been fooled again to make his blood boil.He clearly promised to discuss things with himself.

The more Xing Yue thought about it, the more angry he became, he held back his anger and drove the car to the city bureau.

Jumping out of the car, I ran into Cui Zhendong head-on.

"Team Xing?" Cui Zhendong was very surprised and greeted him, "Why are you here? Are you looking for me?"

Since joining the Municipal Bureau, Cui Zhendong has done a good job, and it can be said that he is like a fish in water.He is very grateful to Xing Yue, and the bad feelings from the past are long gone.

"Da Cui?" Xing Yue was also quite surprised, looked at him, and felt that he seemed to be in good condition.But right now I'm not in the mood to greet him, "Well, I'm here to find Jiang Yuan. Is he there?"

"Team Jiang, I seem to have gone out." Cui Zhendong passed him a cigarette, "I saw him this morning. By the way, I also saw Zhou Xun. They seem to be in a meeting. I haven't seen anyone since the afternoon. "

"Aside from Zhou Xun, is there anyone else?"

"Yes..." Cui Zhendong lit his cigarette, "I didn't pay much attention, and I didn't know him either."

"Okay, thanks." Xing Yue patted Cui Zhendong on the shoulder, took another look into the City Bureau building, turned and left.

Sitting in the car, Xing Yue immediately called Xiang Hai.

Shut down.

Xing Yue really wanted to curse.Endure it, and hit it twice.

Still off.

He couldn't hold back the fire any longer, and slammed the steering wheel hard.

Thinking that I have been waiting for him to appear all day long, afraid of disturbing his work, even sending a message carefully, and dare not make a phone call.As a result, people have already shut down.

I really look like a fool.

He lit his cigarette, took a deep breath, and called Zhou Xun again.

Because of the sudden interrogation of Lei Tao, Zhou Xun didn't close his eyes last night.Today he worked at the city bureau for a long time, and finally got home at night. He casually took a couple of bites of food, and then fell asleep.

Right now he was sleeping soundly, when he was suddenly awakened by the ringing of the bell, he didn't see who it was, so he picked it up in a daze.

"Where are you?" Xing Yue asked immediately.

Zhou Xun didn't realize who the other party was, so he continued, "At home..."

"What about the sea?"

Zhou Xun was a little sober now, and looked at the caller ID, "Oh, Xing Yue, what do you need from him?"

"I asked you where he is."

Zhou Xun rubbed his face, "Tsk, what are you looking for, why are you calling me?"

"What do you think?" Xing Yue's tone became more and more bad.

Feeling his unhappiness, Zhou Xun was not polite, "This is our team's business, don't worry about it!"

Just a joke, I was quarreled while I was sleeping soundly, before he got angry, Xing Yue got angry first.Besides, Xiang Hai belongs to him, and he arranges work for his subordinates, so why should he report to you?

"What about Jiang Yuan?"

Hearing this, Zhou Xun was even more unhappy.This person is too wide-ranging!Thinking about your little brother, but also want to take care of your leader?

"What are you doing? Who are you looking for?"

"I have something to do with Xiang Hai. He is missing now, so I'll ask you for someone! If you say you don't know, I'll go to Jiang Yuan."

"Fuck, you are fucking sick!" Zhou Xun scratched his hair irritably, "Xiang Hai has a mission and is on a business trip!"

"Business trip?? Where did you go?"

"You don't have to know."

"What mission?"

"It's inconvenient to disclose."

It's not that he doesn't trust Xing Yue.But on the one hand, he was annoyed by him, and on the other hand, the matter is of great importance, and the fewer people who know about it, the better.This is not only for the case, but also for the safety of Xiang Hai and Jiang Yuan.

The person on the other end of the phone didn't speak, obviously trying to adjust his breathing.

"Is it because of Lei Tao's case? What's going on?"

"Don't ask, you will know when they come back."

"They??" Xing Yue's voice suddenly rose, "What if he doesn't come back? What if he doesn't come back!!"

Zhou Xun's eardrums hurt from the shock, and he was about to scold him for being discouraged when he heard Xing Yue say in a low voice, "I'm at the city bureau now, and I want to take Lei Tao away."

"No!" Zhou Xun sat up from the bed all of a sudden, and shouted into the phone, "Xing Yue, don't be so fucking messy!"

"Why not? I arrested him. He was suspected of arson, intentional injury, illegal possession of firearms, and robbery of motor vehicles. In addition, he is also a suspect in another case of arson and intentional homicide in my hand. You tell me why I Can't you take him away?"

Zhou Xun was speechless for a while.

"Zhou Xun, let me tell you," Xing Yue's tone was chilling, as if he was gritting his teeth, "he will confess all of you, and those you can't get out of the trial."

After he finished speaking, he hung up the phone.

"Fuck!" Zhou Xun was almost tortured to death by him. He really wanted to throw the phone on the ground, but finally dialed it back.

This person is really too muddled, but he still has reason.He was the one who risked his life to catch Lei Tao, and handed him over to him without saying a word.Now he has the nerve to say that your criminal investigation is not as important as our anti-drug case?

After the call was connected, Xing Yue sat still in the car, waiting for Zhou Xun to speak.

"This afternoon, Team Jiang took Xiang Hai and another comrade from the Municipal Bureau to Guangdong."

"Go for what?"

"Xing Yue, you really don't need to know about this." Zhou Xun's tone softened, almost begging him.

Xing Yue licked his lower lip and took a deep breath, "Let me tell you, Zhao Lang and those people have something to do with my father's case back then, and they have a lot to do with it. I have to figure it out. Besides, Xiang Hai is also my father's case. It’s impossible for me to watch him disappear without a clue. If you have any complaints, you can go to Xu Bureau to complain to me, but I must know. Even if you don’t tell me, I still have a way to know.”

"Oh." Zhou Xun sighed and stood up from the bed, "Wait a minute."

He took out a cigarette and lit it, stood by the window and smoked, "We have received news from Guangdong a while ago that there is a new drug gang that has been very active recently. And there is definite evidence that the gang We are planning to build a line with Dongjiang."

"At first we just suspected whether it was possible to contact Zhao Lang and the others, but it was confirmed yesterday. Because the person who was in charge of contacting that gang was Lei Tao. And yesterday, when we were interrogating him, the text message over there was coming."

"They agreed to the deal, but asked Lei Tao to show sincerity and bring the money to meet him."

"The time left for us is really running out."

Zhou Xun smoked desperately.In just a few words, a cigarette is burned out.

Xing Yue listened quietly.He had already guessed Xiang Hai's role.

Perhaps he should have guessed it when he supported Xiang Hailai to join the anti-drug team.

"We studied for a long time yesterday, and finally decided that Team Jiang will take people to Guangdong in person. Because the people there have been in contact with Lei Tao by phone, and they have never met each other."

"We should take advantage of this opportunity, before the news of Lei Tao's arrest spreads...Maybe if you hesitate for a while, the opportunity will be gone."

Why must it be Xiang Hai?

Xing Yue's heart felt as if a hole had leaked, the cold wind gushed in, taking away the temperature of every drop of blood.

He knew he shouldn't have asked the question.

Not only Xiang Hai, but any policeman should not take on this role.

Whose life is not life?Who is not someone's family?

But he still asked, "Why Xiang Hai?"

Zhou Xun kept sighing, and his voice became heavier and heavier, "Because he is a newcomer, no one knows him, it is safer, and the same is true of another comrade from the Municipal Bureau."

"Also, Lei Tao once asked one of his younger brothers to contact a person over there. Both of them are young people. If we meet in the past, Lei Tao has no reason not to take this younger brother with him."

"In addition, we have also considered comprehensively that Xiang Hai has good personal qualities, high motivation, and is reliable. So..."

Young...and motivated...

Zhou Xun's voice was still in his ears, but Xing Yue closed his eyes.

Can that young man come back?

Zhou Xun said a lot more, but Xing Yue didn't want to listen anymore.

"When will he be back?"

"Well, it's hard to say now." Zhou Xun lit another cigarette, "If it goes well, it may be a week. If it doesn't go well, it may take ten or twenty days."

He also heard that Xing Yue was in a bad mood, so he tried his best to comfort him, "Don't worry too much, Guangdong will fully cooperate. If you are not sure, Team Jiang will not act easily. He will look at Xiang Both of them."

He can guarantee this.Jiang Yuan is the kind of person who especially protects his subordinates.If one of these three people was destined to stay there forever, it would definitely be Jiang Yuan himself.

But he also has some doubts.Xing Yue said that Xiang Hai is his family, what kind of family is it?younger brother?Why did a younger brother suddenly appear?

Xing Yue didn't want to listen any more, and was about to hang up the phone when he suddenly thought of another question.

"When did you tell him about this?"

"Yesterday, last night. Ask him to come to the Municipal Bureau this morning, and we held another meeting to go through the case together."

Xing Yue nodded.

He got it, he got it at last.

Why Xiang Hai came to the hospital early this morning.And why do you say you want to leave, but you still don't want to leave.

There is also the sentence "Brother Xing, I'm leaving, you need to take care of yourself."

It's a pity that he didn't understand at the time, and he didn't say goodbye to him properly.

He didn't ask Zhou Xun any more, and hung up the phone silently.

It was getting late at night, and there were fewer and fewer windows with lights on in the Municipal Bureau.

People need to rest, and the police are no exception.Life will always go on, and time will not stop because of Xiang Hai's departure.

On the contrary, Xing Yue also hoped that time would pass faster and be kinder.

He started the car and left the city bureau.

He wants to go home, he wants to go back and wait for Xiang Hai to come back.

Xiang Hai will definitely come back.When he comes back, he will surely find himself waiting for him.

The car was speeding under the night, and there was only the "rustling" sound of the wheels running over the ground, which was a bit lonely.

He turned on the radio, wanting to listen to people talk, or sing a song, to accompany him for a ride.

The midnight stations are always different from the daytime ones, like the dancing characters on "Hot Hot" with different faces.

A gentle and ethereal prelude played, and someone was singing softly.

"Missing is a very mysterious thing"

"follow me like a shadow"

"Soundless and breathless, haunting the bottom of my heart"

"Engulfed me in loneliness in a blink of an eye"

"I can't resist, especially at night"

"I miss you so much I can't breathe"

"I wish I could run towards you immediately"

"Tell you out loud..."

Xing Yue turned off the radio.

He doesn't want to hear that.He has to concentrate on driving.

But after a while, unconsciously, I started humming.

"I am willing to do anything, everything, for you."

Finally got home, turned on the lights, and threw the keys and cell phone on the table.Just about to enter the bedroom to change clothes, but found an extra note on the table.

He picked it up and read it over and over silently until the words on it were blurred.

Well, since Xiang Hai has said everything, let me wait for him.Also said, will definitely come back.

He sniffed, put the note down, and turned to the kitchen.

Open the refrigerator, and there are many fresh-keeping lunch boxes neatly stacked inside.That was what Xiang Hai prepared for him last night.

Time seemed to go back two months ago, when they just met.

The little policeman who enthusiastically helped him move and brightened his life has now become his boyfriend.

Xing Yue closed the refrigerator door.

He has already had dinner.Save the delicious food for tomorrow, and bring some to my mother to taste.
