never forget [criminal investigation]

With a "squeak", the door of the cell was pulled open, and Xing Yue followed the guard and stood at the door, holding a bunch of minimal necessities in his hands.

"Come in." The guard walked in, glanced at the ten people who were already standing neatly in the room, and pointed to the deepest bed, "You sleep on the bottom one. Go over and put your things away."

"Yes." Xing Yue agreed, and followed the guard's instructions, passing through the twenty eyes that shot back and forth at him like lasers, walked over, put down his things, and consciously stood at the end of the team.

The various systems and disciplines in the prison have been preached before entering, and the discipline will not repeat it at this time, but just walked around the room, checked the indoor hygiene, reminded everyone to pay attention to discipline, and do a good job. Unite, don't make trouble, and leave.

As soon as the door of the cell was closed, the queue immediately disintegrated.

The ten people spread out lazily, some moved their limbs, some yawned, and some pulled out the small stool under the bed and put it under their buttocks.But no matter what he was doing, his gaze was unabashedly on Xing Yue.

Xing Yue turned back to his own bed, bent down and pressed it, it was firm.I checked the length left and right, and it seems a bit short.

Is this where to inhabit for the next two years?

He sat on the edge of the bed and looked around.

The room wasn't very spacious, but it didn't look crowded when twelve people stood on the ground at the same time.The six sets of upper and lower bunks are arranged on the left and right, and his bed is located in the innermost lower bunk on the left.

At this moment, except for the top bunk above his head, the rest of the beds are full.

There is a window on the wall, not far from his bed, but the sunlight outside the window is densely divided into small pieces, which are square and flat on the ground.

The ground was very clean, even tidier than the office in the bureau, not even a single hair could be seen.

"..."

He was almost amused by his own thoughts, where is the hair in this place...

Just as he was thinking wildly, when he turned his eyes, a face suddenly appeared in his sight.

"Fuck." He was startled, and he dodged backwards.

"Hey." The smiling face also moved back, readjusting the focus between the two, "brother, did you scare me?"

Xing Yue looked at the person leaning against his bed and frowned.Unexpectedly, the word "deer-headed mouse eye" really has a prototype.

"What are you doing?" He stood up from the bed.

The man's "deer head" was turned up, and the "mouse eyes" were also turned up, and he took a step back, but quickly put it back, "Don't do anything, I just want to chat with you."

"Hey brother, why did you come in? What happened?"

This person is not tall, more than a head shorter than Xing Yue, with a black and yellow thin face that is wrinkled, making people unable to tell his age.On the contrary, a pair of small round eyes were very bright, and the thin eyelids blinked and blinked, and the eyes kept turning on Xing Yue's face.

Xing Yue wasn't in the mood to chat with him, but he didn't want to cause trouble on the first day, so he said perfunctorily, "Beat someone."

"Killed to death?" When the man heard this, the corners of his eyes tightened with excitement, and even the wrinkles on his forehead appeared.

"No."

"Hey." The forehead lines fell back, and the man looked quite disappointed, "That's not a big deal. How many years was the sentence? Three years? Two years?"

"...Two years." Xing Yue was a little annoyed, and didn't want to chat with him, so he sat back on the bed.

The man let out an "oh", proud of his legal knowledge and being able to compete with lawyers, but at the same time felt that the two-year inmate was just a fleeting love affair, and was a little disappointed.But at any rate, it was also a fresh blood in the room, and it was better than nothing, so they also came over and sat next to Xing Yue very familiarly.

"Then you are not as good as an old cow. He has beaten people into plants. You can communicate with him more later, brother."

"..."

Xing Yue resisted the urge to throw him off, and unconsciously glanced in the direction he pointed.I didn't see any cattle or horses, only a stocky back and a bald back of the head.

At this time, someone spoke again, "You have to frighten the mouse, and you will have to let the old cow cut you later."

The so-called "rat" turned his head, and his face was wrinkled with a smile, "Impossible, whoever cuts me off will buy him cigarettes." Then he raised his chin desperately towards the door, "Is it an old cow?"

Seeing that no one responded, the mouse turned back, "Hey brother, what did you do before? Why did you beat someone up?"

"You look young, how old are you? Where are you from?"

"Hey brother, I found that you are very handsome, how tall are you..."

Xing Yue took a deep breath, "Your name is Mouse?"

"Ah." Mouse took over the conversation naturally, "What do you call my brother?"

Xing Yue wanted to say, "My name is Gouzi, how about it, can you shut up?" Then he felt that this was unnecessary, so he stood up again, "When does this place open for dinner?"

"Are you hungry?"

"!"

"It's almost there..." Before the words finished, the bell rang loudly.

The mouse hurriedly jumped off the bed, stood in a row with the rest of the people, and then turned back to wave to Xing Yue, "Hurry up, brother, line up, aren't you hungry!"

Xing Yue was stunned for a while, then went to line up behind the mouse.

He is obviously not used to this kind of life where everything needs to be done in groups.

The door of the cell was opened again, and eleven people lined up and filed out.Xing Yue didn't know where to go, and didn't need to know.He just followed the opponent mechanically, followed the prescribed route, and was watched by the prison guards all the way to the cafeteria.

This place is not as big as imagined, there are more than [-] long tables arranged neatly, some are already vacant, and some are full.A group of them walked in and sat down in the designated places, while some people came out in a line.

Xing Yue glanced at the porridge in front of him, then looked at the bowl of steamed buns and several dishes of pickles placed in the middle of the long table, and suddenly he didn't feel hungry anymore.

Upon receiving the signal to start eating, all hands stretched out to the bowl of steamed buns.

The mouse was sitting next to him, grabbed a steamed bun, and chewed it, "What are you doing, brother, don't be dazed, eat quickly, aren't you hungry?"

So Xing Yue came back to his senses and took a steamed bun, only to find that the few small dishes of pickles just now were empty.

He took a bite of the tasteless steamed bun, and then took a spoonful of bland porridge.The two kinds of food were mixed together without passion, and they were swallowed calmly down the throat, leaving no trace on the tip of the tongue.

Except for him, everyone at the table ate surprisingly quickly, as if rushing to reincarnate.Xing Yue had only taken two bites of the steamed bun, and the mouse next to him had already stuffed the last piece of steamed bun into his mouth.

With puffed cheeks, he reached out his hand to take out two ham sausages from his clothes, broke them skillfully, and squeezed them into the remaining half bowl of porridge.

Xing Yue's eyes widened.

The mouse scooped up a spoonful of porridge, quickly slid down the steamed buns in its mouth, and at the same time cut the two ham sausages into several pieces with the spoon.

"That's okay??" Xing Yue stared at him, and at the same time found that almost everyone at the table had hidden their own goods.

Mustard mustard, beef jerky, and instant noodles? ?

Mouse didn't have time to talk to Xing Yue, so he poured down the remaining porridge with ham sausage, and then wiped his mouth, "Brother, hurry up, it's time soon."

Xing Yue didn't know how long the time he said was left, but he couldn't help speeding up his movements because he noticed that those who came together basically put down their bowls.

There was still a quarter of the steamed buns left, and they were asked to stand up and leave the table in a row.Xing Yue grabbed the bowl, gulped down the last mouthful of porridge, and stuffed the remaining steamed buns into his mouth.

The steamed bun sucked up the body fluid in his mouth, and he couldn't get up or down.Xing Yue stretched his neck, beat his chest desperately, and followed behind the opponent with tears in his eyes, until he returned to the cell, he finally got over it.

This tasteless breakfast almost killed him.

After entering the room, Xing Yue lay down on the bed tiredly, with his eyes closed.

The mouse came over and said, "How about it, brother, is this first meal in prison not good?"

"It's okay, just wait until you get used to it, we've all come here like this."

Xing Yue opened his eyes and turned his head to look at him, "You guys sneaked in with food."

The mouse chuckled, "You don't need to steal it, you can take it with you, and you can too. There is a small supermarket here, where you buy everything, and you can go buy some later."

I see...

Mouse blinked his small eyes and looked at him again, "I said, brother, what did you do before you came in?"

Xing Yue pursed his lips vigilantly.

The mouse smiled again, and stood up, "Brother, I advise you to get up quickly, and the guards will come in later to roll the roll. You made a mess on this bed, so be careful to deduct points."

After speaking, he sauntered away.

He has always had confidence in his "little wisdom eyes".The reason why he asked this was because from the moment Xing Yue entered the door, he felt that this person was unusual.Not only the body shape, manners, and demeanor, but even the standing posture is incompatible with this place.Of course, no one is born with a "prisoner" look, but Xing Yue's gestures, even his eyes... how should I put it, made him instinctively unwilling to approach, but unable to restrain his curiosity.

Life in prison is tough, and it's not easy to come across something interesting.So he's happy to have fun with it.

And if Xing Yue really has a background, he feels that it will definitely not hurt him to hook up with such a person.

Xing Yue had no choice but to get up again, straighten the crumpled sheets, and make the quilt square again.

Sure enough, it didn't take long for the guards to come in.

"Now roll call." He glanced at the straight line, "Niu Guangcai."

"To!"

"Wang Zhiqiang."

"To!"

......

"Ma Hao."

"Here!" The mouse responded.

"Xing Yue."

"arrive."

"Be louder!"

"Here!" Xing Yue immediately straightened his back like a conditioned reflex, raised his chin, and knocked his heels at the same time.

The guard gave him another stern look, then turned to the door, "Get out of the queue."

"Yes!"

Eleven people lined up, went to the playground, and started running.

After running for about half an hour, I merged with other teams and came to a classroom collectively to receive ideological and political education and basic legal principles.

After studying until lunch time, everyone lined up to have lunch again.

After lunch, return to the cell to rest.

Xing Yue lay down on the bed again, staring at the upper bunk in a daze.

Life in prison seemed not as hard as he imagined, but more boring, the kind of boring that tormented one's will.

The mouse said, today is Saturday, so it is relatively easy.Tomorrow will be easier, you can play ball, chess, take a bath, and even watch a movie.But it’s going to be tough Monday, as “work” starts.So he suggested that Xing Yue should be prepared, at least have a full breakfast on Monday.

Xing Yue turned over, facing the wall, tracing a spot of light on the wall with his fingers.

He is not afraid of hard work or boredom, but he does not want to suffer loneliness anymore.

He misses Xiang Hai very much.

How he survived these two months, he didn't dare to look back and think about it.

I don't know how Xiang Hai's case is progressing, and when will the court be held.Now that someone else has come in and has lost contact with the outside world, everything can only be relied on by Lawyer Xiao.

Xiang Hai is not in the same situation as him.He himself is a typical case of intentional injury, but Xiang Hai is likely to be prosecuted for attempted intentional homicide.

The difference between the two compartments is the sky and the ground.

But since Lawyer Xiao is confident, he can only choose to believe him. After all, Xing Yue can't find a better way.

Just like what He Kun once said to him, if you poison the well, even if you kill the person who poisoned it, you can't get rid of the poisonous water.

Now he only hopes that Lawyer Xiao can save Xiang Hai's two-year sentence, and hope that this matter will be settled one day sooner.

At that time, seeing him here, Xiang Hai should be terrified.

However, in general, he should be very happy.

Imagining that scene, Xing Yue gradually raised the corners of his mouth.

In the afternoon, I still study, rest, study again, and rest again.

After dinner is a rare free time.

Some people go to wash up, some lie on the bed and gossip, and some lie on the bed and read a book.

Xing Yue was unprepared, he didn't even have a piece of paper at hand, and he didn't want to chat with those people. After washing up, he just sat on the small bench next to the bed, waiting to watch the news broadcast.

At this time, the mouse wobbled to his side again, and squatted down with a smile, "Brother Xing Yue?"

Xing Yue raised his eyes.

"A friendly reminder to you. You can call outside tomorrow. If you want to call, go there early to save long queues."

"Thank you." Xing Yue lowered his eyes again.

He doesn't want to be in touch with anyone right now.

"Also, tomorrow is the day to take a bath, and then we will act as one, so why don't you go together?"

Xing Yue's eyebrows twitched, but he didn't say anything.

The mouse looked at him, smiled and patted him on the shoulder, "It's so cold, how comfortable it is to take a hot bath. My brother, don't worry so much now that you're here."

Seeing that Xing Yue still didn't move after speaking, he smiled and walked away, returning to his small bench.

At this time, the TV hanging above the door of the cell was turned on, and soon, familiar music played.

Xing Yue stared at the screen expressionlessly.

After watching TV and free activities for a while, it was time to sleep.

Xing Yue climbed onto the bed, and the cell quickly became quiet.Occasionally there was the sound of body turning and the sound of pulling the quilt.After a while, there was a snoring sound.

Xing Yue was very tired, but couldn't sleep.

The lights in the house are too bright.

As part of the 24-hour uninterrupted monitoring of inmates, sleeping time is no exception.Therefore, there is always an ever-burning lamp in the cell, which will never go out.

Xing Yue closed his eyes tightly, but the light could still seep into his eyelids, causing him a headache.

He rolled over, facing the wall.

The bed was so hard that it hurt his butt.

The pillows were also uncomfortable, very flat.

So he began forced self-hypnosis.

He silently recalled that home.Although it is a rented house, it does not prevent it from becoming a home, because there is his family there.

The bed was spacious and comfortable, and Xiang Hai was lying next to him, sometimes reading, sometimes pestering him to chat.

Of course, he is the one who pesters Xiang Haina more often.

What a great feeling.

At that time, Xiang Hai's voice was always shallow, but it viciously teased his senses, making him howl.As a result, Xiang Hai was always worried that the neighbor would call the police, but at the same time he expressed his liking for him calling his name.

And the silky soft hair, soaked in sweat, gently entangled between his fingers...

Xing Yue took a heavy breath and pressed his forehead against the wall, letting the cold touch cool down his increasingly surging mood.

He misses Xiang Hai so much.

Not only the physical thought, but also the kind of yearning that the heart has been cut in half and strongly desires to be healed.

He tossed and turned and couldn't sleep, and the light became more and more dazzling.

Finally he couldn't take it anymore, he took off his coat and covered his head.

The world just quieted down.

He stopped tossing back and forth, and gradually became sleepy.

It was only when he fell asleep hazily that he suddenly felt the clothes on his head move.

He opened his eyes suddenly, jumped up from the bed in an instant, grasped an arm intuitively, and twisted it hard, "Don't move!"

The mouse said "Ouch", and its thin face immediately changed shape, "Ouch, arm, arm is broken! Let go!"

Seeing that it was him, Xing Yue let go of his hand.

Hearing the commotion here, a few heads froze on the bed next door, and found that it was nothing serious, and went to lie down again.

"Fuck, what the hell is wrong with you?" Xing Yue quickly put on his clothes.

The mouse rubbed its sore arm, quickly glanced at the surveillance probe, and distanced itself from Xing Yue's bed, "Brother, your defensiveness is too scary!"

"You can't sleep with your head covered, do you understand? Didn't the guard tell you that?"

It was only then that Xing Yue remembered that the discipline had indeed said this.

The mouse frowned, "If you are found out, your points will be deducted, and if you fail, you will have to report criticism."

"I kindly drag you away..."

Xing Yue also felt a little embarrassed at this time, "Well, I'm sorry."

"But don't be so sneaky next time, just call me."

The mouse curled its lips, squeezed its arms and walked back to its own bed, stopped halfway, and turned around, "I said, brother, what did you do in the past?"

He felt that Xing Yue's technique just now and that loud shout seemed familiar.

Xing Yue didn't argue with him, he just apologized to him again, and then he was ready to lie down again.

Unexpectedly, the mouse went back to his bed, fumbled for something, and then turned it back, "Brother, do you need this?"

Xing Yue had no choice but to sit up again, looked at the thing he shook out of his hand, and frowned, "What is this thing?"

"Blindfold."

Xing Yue rubbed his eyes and moved closer.It really looks like a blindfold. At first glance, I thought it was an insole.

But the hot color scheme and rough workmanship are not bad for the insoles.

"No." It is absolutely impossible for Xing Yue to put this thing on his head.

"Are you sure?" The mouse shook the things on his hands again, "You just came here, so you won't be able to fall asleep with the lights on."

"I'll give you a friendly price, 88, how about it?"

"?" Xing Yue was quite shocked. How much money is needed for this crap?Still 88?

"Thank you, no." After saying that, he lay back.

The mouse snorted, turned the blindfold on its hand, and left.

"There will be a day when you beg me. At that time, it will not be 88."

"Xiang Hai, the court session will start tomorrow. How is it? Is there any problem with you here?"

Before the trial, Xiao Chengyu visited Xiang Hai in the detention center for the last time.

He was well prepared for this case, and he was quite sure. The only thing he was worried about was Xiang Hai's performance in court.

"Don't worry, Lawyer Xiao, I'm fine." Xiang Hai smiled at him.

Xiao Chengyu observed his state, feeling pretty good.The person is a lot thinner than when we first met, but his spirit seems to be much better, at least there is some light in his eyes again.

"That's good." Xiao Chengyu also smiled, "Don't be nervous, let's proceed step by step. I have confidence in this case, and you should also have confidence."

"Okay!" Xiang Hai nodded.

"Okay, then you have a good rest tonight, and we'll see you in court tomorrow." After Xiao Chengyu finished speaking, he packed up his things and prepared to leave.

"Xiao, Lawyer Xiao!" Xiang Hai suddenly stopped him.

"What's wrong?" Xiao Chengyu stopped what he was doing.

Xiang Hai pursed his lips, hesitated for a while, and finally mustered up his courage, "Lawyer Xiao, will Xing Yue come tomorrow?"

He wondered if Xing Yue would appear in court.

If he comes, he needs to be prepared in advance. After all, he hasn't seen him for so long. He needs to figure out what expression and mentality he should use to face him.

If it doesn't come...he has to be ready.

"Xing Yue... probably won't come." Xiao Chengyu helped the wide frame on the bridge of his nose, "I haven't seen him for a long time."

"What?" Xiang Hai stood up suddenly, "You said, a long time?"

"Yeah, don't you know?" Xiao Chengyu was a little surprised, "About a month ago, before Chinese New Year, he suddenly gave me another person's phone number, asking me to contact that person if I have anything to do."

"What about others?" Xiang Hai clasped his hands on the table.

"I don't know." Xiao Chengyu shrugged, "I called him once and turned off the phone, and then I started to contact another person. That person is Zhou Xun, you should know him?"

Xiang Hai stood there in a daze, even forgot to nod his head.

Where did Xing Yue go?

Really, did you leave?

"Xiang Hai," Xiao Chengyu couldn't help being a little worried seeing him in this state, "Xiang Hai?"

Only then did Xiang Hai come back to his senses, stared at him blankly, and then sat down slowly.

"Xiang Hai, don't think about anything now, except tomorrow's court session, nothing is important, you know?"

Xiang Hai still stared at him, indifferent.

Xiao Chengyu frowned, stood up, "Xiang Hai, you must pull yourself together."

"Whether Xing Yue comes or not will not affect tomorrow's court session. It is related to the rest of your life."

"Besides, this is also Xing Yue's wish. Before your case, he has been working hard, running around, and begging me again and again, let me help you win this lawsuit."

Only then did Xiang Hai's eyeballs move, "Really?"

"Of course." Although there was a little exaggeration, Xiao Chengyu felt that this was the case in general, so he continued to cheer up Xiang Hai, "He cares about you very much, otherwise he wouldn't be so attentive."

"Although I don't know where he is now, I believe his departure must be temporary and there are reasons."

"In short, no matter what, you can't live up to his hope. Winning this lawsuit is his greatest hope."

"You can't let him down!"

"dont you agree?"

"...Yes." Xiang Hai lowered his head.

Xiao Chengyu suddenly raised his voice, and slapped him hard on the shoulder, "Xiang Hai, stand up!"

Xiang Hai raised his head and slowly stood up again.

"Say it again, won't you? Louder!"

"Yes." Xiang Hai took a deep breath, his shoulders trembling, "Yes!!"

Then, the tears rolled down uncontrollably.
