never forget [criminal investigation]

On Friday afternoon, half of the time passed in a blink of an eye.

The social animals who don't plan to work overtime on weekends are fully wound up, and the remaining work at hand is tightly packed into the two hours before get off work.

In the afternoon, after Xiang Hai attended the team's weekly meeting, he began to write the report.

When he was dizzy from writing, he lay down by the window to smoke a cigarette, and at the same time planned to move on the weekend.

Zhang Xiaowei spent the whole day sorting out the information about the parents of the kidnapped children in the Zhang Yun case.At this moment, his eyes were dazzled, he stood up and stretched, and looked towards the opposite side, "Hey, old Qin, where is Brother Xing, have you gone out? I haven't seen anyone else all afternoon."

Qin Peng was holding the mobile phone to send a message to Xing Yue, and said perfunctorily, "It's a meeting."

-Team Xing, I have contacted Dongjiang Daily again, they have not arranged any interview tasks for our branch recently.I faxed that letter of introduction, but the person at the newspaper office said he had never seen it, and the specific situation needs to be investigated again.Write back to me later.

Putting down his phone, he lit a cigarette in bewilderment.

Just over an hour ago, Xing Yue suddenly came to look for him with a bottle of mineral water in his hand.He asked him to find out if there was a female reporter named Xin Yuan in Dongjiang Daily, who was 24 or [-] years old, and roughly described her height and appearance, and also reported a series of press card numbers.

After Xing Yue left, he started to investigate.But after searching, I couldn't find the person who fit Xing Yue's description.

There is a female reporter named Xin Yuan in the newspaper, but she is over 30, because she just gave birth to her second child and is currently on maternity leave.

So he sent the result to Xing Yue on WeChat.

After a while, I received a reply:

-Old Qin, there is a letter of introduction from Dongjiang Daily on my desk, please check the authenticity for me.

In the conference room, Xin Yuan still looked at Xing Yue silently, waiting for him to answer his own question.

She observed carefully, the man opposite had just been poked in the sore spot by herself.Although the expression has not changed, but the eyes are obviously different.

Should be very angry, right?Do you even have the heart to jump over and break your own neck?

The corners of her mouth were slightly pursed, and she felt a little joyful, even excited.

Because she likes to use a gentle knife to inflict pain on others in such a calm manner.Especially when dealing with men like Xing Yue.

She had given him a lot of opportunities just now, but if he accepted the slightest hint, she would not throw out the last series of questions that made him painful.

There are many ways to destroy a person. Facing Xing Yue, she prefers to choose the method that allows herself to enjoy some sweetness.

It's a pity that this man didn't give in.

"What's the matter, Officer Xing?" She opened her eyes wide, and her voice was cautious, "Did my question just upset you?

Seeing that Xing Yue was indifferent, her thin white fingers twisted together, looking very nervous, "If this is the case, I apologize to you!"

At this time, Xin Yuan's eyes seemed to be covered with mist, and his eyes were full of apology and self-blame, "I'm sorry, I didn't mean any harm. I really didn't mean it, please believe me."

"You also know that as reporters, in order to complete the interview task, sometimes we will unknowingly offend people..."

As he spoke, he reached out to take back the recording pen placed in the middle of the table.

But the other end of the pen was held down.

"Huh?" Xin Yuan raised his eyes and looked at him uneasily.

The opponent's strength was great, and the recording pen fell into Xing Yue's hands lightly.

He lowered his head and fiddled for a while, and all the records in it were completely deleted.

"Hey, you!" Xin Yuan was slightly annoyed, clapping both hands on the table, and the earring on one side shook accordingly.

Xing Yue put down the recorder, stood up, walked around the table, and came to Xin Yuan's side.

Xin Yuan's gaze was fixed all the way.

"Let it go." Xing Yue grabbed the corner of the notebook and looked at her with downcast eyes.

"What are you going to do?" Xin Yuan's cheeks flushed slightly, and he didn't know if it was really because of nervousness, but his body moved sideways involuntarily.

Xing Yue pulled her notebook, flipped the screen up and down, then typed a few times on the keyboard, and clicked in the pop-up window.Soon, the screen went black.

"Xing Yue!" Xin Yuan seemed to be really angry, and stood up in a "bass", "You are crazy! Everything in my computer is gone!"

Xing Yue returned the computer to her, and went back to sit opposite him, "Didn't you ask me a question, I'll answer you now."

"However, use this to write it down." As he said, he tapped lightly on his forehead.

Xin Yuan stared at him, panting angrily, "Xing Yue, you are too much. Just forget it if you don't want to answer, why did you destroy my computer and recorder? I want to complain to your leader!"

"Okay, let's go. Can you find the door?" Xing Yue raised his legs and touched his chin, "If you can't find Zhisheng, I'll lead you there."

Xin Yuan bit her lower lip.

"Tsk, it's over." Xing Yue curled his lips, "I was talked to by our leader in the morning, saying that 'someone' exposed my scandal, and in the afternoon 'someone' wanted to complain about me. This month's bonus must be gone."

He raised his eyebrows with a playful expression, "That person, can't it be you?"

"What do you mean?" Xin Yuan's expression turned cold, and he sat back in the chair, crossing his hands in front of his chest.

"It's boring." Xing Yue's face was also cold, his eyes seemed to be frosted, "I just want to know, in what capacity are you complaining against me?"

"Reporter? Liar? Or... drug dealer?"

Xin Yuan didn't say a word, but her breathing became rapid, and her palms were sweating immediately.

"Besides, I want to ask." Xing Yue raised his chin towards her, "What are you planning to do here?"

"Punish me? Hit me? Or, want to destroy me?"

The meeting room fell silent.

Xin Yuan frantically guessed how he knew his identity and how much he knew.At the same time, he was thinking about how to leave.

Xing Yue looked at her and calculated.

After waiting like this for a while, he took out a cigarette from his pocket, lowered his head and lit it, then raised his face again, "It doesn't matter."

He breathed out the smoke, raised his hand and pointed at her, "You, if you live in the abyss, you will also die in the abyss."

When the smoke cleared, his gaze fell into Xin Yuan's eyes again, as if looking at a mouse in a cage, "You still want to drag me to be buried with you?"

"I'm sorry to disappoint you, I am very sunny, like a fucking little sun."

"If you're not afraid of death, just keep teasing me."

The smoke rose again, he tilted his head, his eyes were frivolous, "I'll take good care of you shady things, and let you see how ugly you are."

Xing Yue's words made Xin Yuan's whole body icy cold, and his hands trembled unknowingly.

She was not afraid or angry, but felt an unprecedented humiliation.

At this moment, she just slapped the man hard to tell him to shut up, and then left this place as soon as possible.

Everything here makes her uncomfortable.

Xing Yue continued to smoke, and then leaned back on the back of the chair, "I keep my word, and I'll answer your questions later. You remember it in your head, don't you have to report when you go back?"

"First, Xing Yiqing has never been a public enemy of the people, he is only a public enemy of certain people."

"Secondly, he is dead, but he doesn't need to repent, because he is not guilty." Xing Yue pointed at the opposite person again, and his eyes followed, "You are the ones who are guilty, so you will definitely die."

He withdrew his gaze and turned to the window of the meeting room.It was sunny outside.

"Third, the impact on me... I said, I only started to understand him after he left, and I guess you can't understand it either."

"Fourth, I don't hate him. He is a hero and my pride."

"In the end, of course I'm going his way. In fact, I'm already on that path."

Xing Yue turned his face, "But I will live until I send all of you bastards from the gutter to the execution ground."

After finishing speaking, he picked up his cigarette and tapped his fingers on the table, "You, do you remember everything?"

Xiang Hai finally finished the report before leaving get off work.

He turned off the computer, came to the window again, and left work after smoking the cigarette.

perfect.

Just in time, a woman's back came into view.

The woman's figure is very good, she is wearing a professional suit that fits very well, and the stiletto heels under her feet are being trampled on.

She walked in a hurry, and the route should be heading for a red car.But after walking not far, the bag on his shoulder slipped off and fell to the ground.

She quickly bent down to pick it up, then slammed it on her shoulder, and her long caramel-colored curly hair was messed up, looking a little embarrassed.

At this time, there was a booing sound mixed with cursing behind her.

Xiang Hai sticks his head out of the window.

I saw that at the entrance of the building, led by Xing Yue, a dozen or so criminal investigators were standing there, witnessing the embarrassment of the beautiful woman.It was they who made the booing just now.

Is this what is going on?

Xiang Hai hung a cigarette curiously, and leaned out again.

The people standing behind Xing Yue were not very polite in their words, some were even quite rude.

And Zhang Xiaowei took a few steps forward, pushed something in his hand hard, broke it in half, and then slammed it towards the woman's back.

"I'm going to your mother!"

The thing that was thrown out was smashed to pieces, looking like a mobile phone, but it didn't seem to be a mobile phone.

Qin Peng went over to hold him back, "Forget it."

Zhang Xiaowei panted and retreated to Xing Yue, "Brother Xing, why did you let her go!"

"That's right, Brother Xing!" Zheng Shuanghe also followed, "I should detain her, interrogate her, and let her spit out everything she knows! Damn it!"

Almost everyone is cursing.

At this time, the woman had already got into the red car, stepped on the accelerator, and drove out of the branch gate with a "squeak".

"Damn it! It's cheap for her!"

"get out!"

Xing Yue watched her leave, and then waved to everyone, "Okay, let's go back. Get off work early if you have nothing to do."

"I didn't call you here to scold the street, but to keep your eyes open. Next time you encounter this kind of thing, be more vigilant."

"Those people have a lot of tricks."

As he spoke, he patted Zhang Xiaowei on the shoulder, "Let's all go up."

When everyone was upstairs, he walked towards the parking lot by himself.He lowered his head and pressed his phone while walking.

Here, Xiang Hai's cell phone beeped.

- Model worker, can I go?

-able!

Xiang Hai replied in seconds.

- Then I'll wait for you in the car.

Xiang Hai went downstairs in no time, and almost got into the car with Xing Yue.

"So fast!" Xing Yue looked at him and laughed.

"I'm in a hurry." Xiang Hai pulled the seat belt and fastened it, "Brother Xing, why did you all run downstairs just now? I heard that Viagra was still swearing, who is that woman?"

Xing Yue was about to start the car, so he frowned, "You don't go to work every day, so you lie on the window sill to watch the fun?"

"No, it just happened by chance. I've been working hard all afternoon."

"Who is that person?"

Xing Yue started the car and sighed sadly, "Xiao Hai, I was bullied today."

"Huh??" Xiang Hai suddenly stood up from his seat, "What's going on? Who bullied you?"

"That girl."

"Why did she bully you?"

"That man is a liar."

"You were cheated by her?" Xiang Hai frowned incredulously, "In the police station?"

"En." Xing Yue nodded.

"Oh, Brother Xing, what's going on?" The more indifferent Xing Yue's attitude became, the more anxious Xiang Hai became.

So Xing Yue recounted what happened in the afternoon.Before he could finish speaking, Xiang Hai rolled up his sleeves, "Fuck, why did you let her go?"

"if not?"

Xing Yue turned his face to the side, appreciating his boyfriend losing his temper.

At this time, he suspects that he is a shaker.Not only did he feel comfortable physically and mentally, but he even hoped that Xiang Hai would be more aggressive.

So perverted.

Xiang Hai remained silent, but stared out of the car window with a heavy expression.

Yeah, what else?

Said she cheated, but Xing Yue didn't lose any money; said she was bluffing, but the newspaper is not a state organ; said she disturbed public order, but she obviously came for Xing Yue alone; What can I do?

No matter how poisonous a heart is, it cannot judge its body.

What Zhou Xun said was right, Zhao Lang really had many tricks, and Xing Yue had already become his target.

what can we do about it?

"Hey, what are you thinking?" Seeing that Xiang Hai didn't speak for a long time, Xing Yue shook his arm.

Xiang Hai shook his head lightly.

What should we do...

Catch thieves and kings, cut grass and roots.Only by bringing Zhao Lang to justice one day earlier can future troubles be avoided forever.

Zhou Xun also said that it was almost time to settle accounts with him.

"Hey, it's actually not that serious. I saw through her tricks at a glance." Xing Yue felt that he had frightened Xiang Hai too much just now.

"En." Xiang Hai just nodded, looking absent-minded.

"Tsk." Seeing him being so perfunctory, Xing Yue was dissatisfied again, "You didn't say anything? Huh?"

Your target, I was bullied!You don't even intend to comfort me, kiss and hug or something?

Only then did Xiang Hai turn around and look at him with firm eyes, "Don't worry, I will protect you."

"Pfft!" Xing Yue was amused by his appearance.He raised his hand to smooth the pimple on his brow, "How do you protect it? Let's hear it."

"I haven't thought about it yet." Xiang Hai pursed his lips.

Still have to wait for the opportunity.

"Don't think about it, I've already thought about it for you!"

"What?" Xiang Hai found that he suddenly became more beautiful, and almost missed the gate of the community.

"I need personal protection," Xing Yue turned the steering wheel, "7*24 hours."

"..."

"Didn't understand?" Xing Yue squinted at him, "Close, don't you understand?"

"It's just that you..."

"I understand!" Stop talking...

Xing Yue stopped the car, unfastened his seat belt, and opened his hands with a smile, "Then hurry up and stick it!"

Before dinner, Xing Yue promised to help pack things for tomorrow's move.

But after eating, he went to take a shower, put on clean pajamas, and lay down on the bed comfortably, "You clean it up, I'll help you look after it."

Xiang Hai stood beside the bed with an empty cardboard box, "Help me see what?"

"Just, let's see if you pretend to be tidy, don't leave anything behind." Xing Yue supported his head with his hands, looked at him and smiled comfortably.

"Then you have worked hard." Xiang Hai put the cardboard box on the desk, and began to put the things in the drawer facing inside one by one.

"It's okay, I might fall asleep after a while." Xing Yue said generously.

Xiang Hai, with his back on his back, smiled while packing the boxes, "Brother Xing, if you're sleepy, go back to your own home and sleep. Why lie on my bed and blame me for squeezing you."

"Fuck, do you have a conscience?" Xing Yue took out two tissues from the bedside, rolled them into balls, and flicked them on the back of Xiang Hai's head, "What about the personal protection that you agreed to, and forget about it after a meal?"

"Didn't you paste it just now?" Xiang Hai picked up the paper ball and put it on the table, his shoulders were shaking non-stop.

"7*24 hours, understand?" Xing Yue shouted behind him.

"Oh." Xiang Hai suppressed a smile, suddenly remembered something, turned around, "By the way, Brother Xing, why did Team Zhou say you are my brother? Did you tell him anything?"

"Oh, I just told him... you're my family."

Xing Yue lowered his eyes, the light at the head of the bed slanted down warmly, and his eyelashes cast two soft shadows.

"He figured everything else out on his own," he curled his lips. "That man just likes to gossip."

Xiang Hai leaned against the desk and looked at him, "Why don't I call you brother from today on."

"Really?" Xing Yue raised his eyes immediately, his eyes shining.

"Yeah." Xiang Hai nodded, "Is that okay?"

"That's great!" Xing Yue was so happy that he grabbed a pillow and hugged him tightly.

In fact, ever since he was in the cafeteria at noon, Xiang Hai was coerced into calling him brother, and he felt itchy in his heart.

He likes Xiang Hai to call him that.Otherwise, Zhang Xiaowei and Zheng Shuanghe would call him Brother Xing, how could it reflect Xiang Hai's difference?

This is a milestone!It marks that from now on, they are really each other's family.

"Then you call one now!" He began to push forward.

"Don't bark." Xiang Hai turned around and continued to pack his things, "Call again when you want to bark."

"Quite tempered." Xing Yue flicked another ball of paper onto the back of Xiang Hai's head.

Xiang Hai picked up the paper ball, squeezed it together with the one just now, turned around suddenly, and hit Xing Yue on the forehead.

"Ouch!" Xing Yue let out another trembling laugh.

When the carton was almost full, Xiang Hai opened the last drawer.

His hand paused, but he still took out the tin box on top.

"Brother, let me show you something." He hugged the box and sat by the bed.

Hearing that he really changed his words, Xing Yue immediately leaned over happily, and wrapped his arms around his stomach from behind, "What?"

"This, remember?" Xiang Hai shook a small card in his hand.

This is what Xing Yue brought when he sent him flowers for the first time.

"Do you still keep it?" Of course Xing Yue remembered it, but he didn't expect him to keep it all the time.

"Of course." Xiang Hai put down the card, and picked up a spoon bent at 180 degrees, "There's this one, remember?"

"Fuck!" Xing Yue jumped up, "Why do you keep this thing!"

"You must keep it." Xiang Hai put the spoon back into the box, "This is your dark history."

He smiled, and picked up another photo from the box, "Come on, let me show you my dad, my mom, and my childhood."

Xing Yue hurriedly got off the bed, and sat side by side with him.

"At that time, I must have been three or four years old." Xiang Hai handed him the photo, "This is the only photo left in our family."

Xing Yue hooked his shoulders and placed the photo between the two of them.

In the photo, Xiang Hai's mother looks very gentle and beautiful, holding Xiao Xiang Hai in her arms and smiling sweetly.

Xiang Hai's father also looks handsome, with fair skin, but there is not much smile on his face.

And Xiang Hai was standing between the two of them, wearing a blue and white navy uniform, cheerfully raising his little arms to salute.

Looks silly.

Xing Yue scratched his cheek with his fingers, "You look like your mother."

"Well, they all said that." Xiang Hai sniffed, lowered his head, and looked at the tin box on his lap.

"This is my cornucopia. I put the New Year's money given by my parents in the past, as well as the inexhaustible pocket money, in it."

He closed the lid and shook it, "I've never counted how much money is inside, but I remember it's very heavy, there should be quite a few."

"When my uncle took me to Mingzhou, I took it with me on purpose." He couldn't explain why he took this box on purpose at that time, and he never opened it until he left his uncle's house.

"Your uncle lives in Mingzhou?" Xing Yue was a little surprised.

"Yes. He led me there by train."

"However, when I wanted to go back to Dongjiang, I opened this box at the train station, only to find that there was only a thick book and this photo inside."

"There's not a penny in it."

Xing Yue's heart felt like being stabbed hard by a needle.He didn't dare to ask Xiang Hai why he left his uncle's house and went back to Dongjiang alone, so he could only ask, "What about the money?"

Xiang Hai shook his head, "I don't know."

"Did your uncle take it away?"

Xiang Hai continued to shake his head, "Probably not. I think it's probably my dad or my mom."

"The money in it may have been gone long ago, but I always thought they were still there."

Xing Yue felt more and more heavy in his heart.He finally understood why Xiang Hai asked over and over in his dream, "Where's the money, where is my money?"

"Then how did you get back to Dongjiang?"

Xiang Hai put the box aside and leaned on Xing Yue's shoulder, "I was in a daze at the time. I didn't have any money on me, and I couldn't buy a train ticket."

"Then I thought of a stupid way," he smiled, "I thought, as long as I walked along the railway, I could definitely walk home."

Xing Yue's nose was sour when he heard it, and he hugged him tightly.

"Maybe I was out of my mind at that time," he laughed again, "I just walked and walked until my legs almost broke, and I actually reached a small station."

"Unfortunately," he pursed his lips, "I asked someone how far it was to Dongjiang, and the person told me that I was going the wrong way."

"The Dongjiang River is farther away."

Xing Yue couldn't bear it anymore, and rubbed his eyes hard, "Then what happened next?"

"Later, I waited for the train to Dongjiang. It was a very old green leather car. I sneaked on it and found an empty place where the carriages connected."

"I ran away when the conductor checked the ticket, and continued to hide in another place. Sometimes I hid in the toilet, sometimes I hid under the seat. I was very scared, my heart was pounding, and I was afraid that they would catch me and shoot at me. Ask for a ticket, and then send me back to my uncle's house."

"Maybe I was too scared at the time. For many years later, I often dreamed that I was stuck between the two carriages of the train. The wind was blowing so hard that I couldn't keep my eyes open. The railroad track was under my feet, which was blurry. It's too fast to see."

"I didn't dare to move, and I didn't dare to shout. Because if I moved, I would fall, and if I shouted, I would be caught."

Xing Yue wiped his eyes from left to right, his voice had already taken on a strong nasal tone, "Xiao Hai, don't be afraid, I'm with you, I'm right by your side."

"Yeah." Xiang Hai smiled and nodded.

"Then do you still have that dream now?"

Xiang Hai sat up straight, and rubbed the corners of Xing Yue's wet eyes, "It was there a while ago, but after you came, it seems to be gone."

Xing Yue felt that this was not enough, and asked again, "Then I'm by your side, can you sleep more peacefully?"

"Yes." Xiang Hai smiled, and kissed him lightly on the tip of the nose, "When you are by my side, I feel very at ease, and I have never had a nightmare."
