Chapter 18

Late at night.

The summer night in LAN city is cool. The wind from the Yangtze River blows from the north and moistens the whole city. A lot of people are already sleeping, many people's lives are just beginning.

Downtown, a neighborhood that's been around for years.

A man in his forties was standing on his balcony with his bare arms, drinking beer. In the room, his wife was cleaning up the dishes and swearing.

A mosquito flew by, and the man raised his hand and slapped it on his arm.

Then he was stunned.

Because he felt as if he had heard a voice just now.

It came from him.

He looked down in disbelief and was startled.

Because of his left chest, the position of the heart, I do not know when more red marks. He immediately reached for a touch - it smelled like red ink.

As soon as the man's face changed, he craned his neck and yelled at the bottom of the building: "who's his mother shooting at random! Take care of your children! If you beat me again, I'll catch you, or I'll beat you! "

There was only silence in response to him.

Ten minutes later, in another neighborhood not far from here.

A young man was sitting on the sofa, smoking and listening to music. This is a very dirty home, the sofa can't see the original color, the table is full of fast food boxes and mineral water bottles, flies fly around.

The music is so loud that the young people shake their heads as if they are completely in their own world.

"Pa".

He vaguely seemed to hear something very light, but he didn't care at all.

Until he got up to go to the toilet, suddenly found himself in the mirror, chest shirt with a red mark. He frowned, reached out and touched it. He didn't pay much attention to it. He closed his eyes and continued to sway in front of the mirror with the music.

An hour later, far away from the gate of the diamond Dynasty nightclub.

A group of young people came out embracing each other. They are well-dressed and full of wine. One of the girls was wearing the most revealing, too small a sling, too short a skirt and a pair of high-heeled boots. A boy put his hand around her waist, and she pushed him away: "go away!" The surrounding people laughed, and the girl also laughed. As soon as she reached out, she pulled the boy back. They were mouth to mouth, and their tongues were inseparable. All the people around him whistled.

"Bang."

No one heard the sound, and the party went on. When we got to the parking lot with bright lights, someone "Yi" said, pointing to the girl's chest: "what? Are you bleeding? "

Let's all look at it. The girl lowered her head, reached out and touched it, and found it was red ink.

"Who made it?" She feigned anger, raised her hands full of ink and wiped them on the faces of several people nearby. "Who just threw something on my chest? I hate it

A group of people were fighting and laughing. Finally, I jumped into two colorful sports cars and left.

……

Midnight slowly returned to silence.

The city on the plain beside the river is as quiet as a mirage. The sky is dark blue and the moon is white. Many high-rise buildings still have a few lights, shining on people's dreams.

Among them, there is only one lamp on the top floor of a building, which is on for a long time. It's far, far from the ground.

A man, standing in front of the French window.

I have a gun in my left hand.

Muzzle, red liquid dripping slowly. And his hands were red.

After standing like this for a long time, he looked up at the glass in front of him.

In the same red ink, there is a line of numbers:

"1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7."

He slowly raised his hand and gently drew a big cross - "X" on each number with his index finger stained with red ink.

Then he lowered his head.

With one arm on the glass and the other hand at the bottom right of the number, he wrote a crooked capital letter -

"t".

As the ink flowed, the marks on the glass gradually mixed up, and finally nothing could be seen.

And the man hung his head, kept this position, motionless.

-

Jiangcheng.

Bai Jinxi sits in front of the computer, biting the pen, writing and drawing on the paper from time to time.

As a Jiangcheng native with little memory, she is seriously making a strategy for local specialties --

dried peaches with Chen Ji's dried goods Netizens' comments are most authentic, and I'd like to give you three catties.

the bean skin at the entrance of the main road in the east of the city She doesn't like this one very much. Let's have one bag.

she thinks it's best to eat this one. Is five bags enough?

……

She folded the paper and put it into her pocket. Zhou Xiaozhuan was about to get up for breakfast when he saw her and said, "boss, are you on vacation today? I haven't left yet

"Well, check up and go." She murmured and rose.Two people walked to the door, one eye saw not far from the corner of the stairs, a familiar figure, with the director walked up side by side.

No, it's Xu Sibai.

Zhou Xiaozhuan leaned on the door and said in a low voice, "actually, I think it's better for Xu to do it. Although the treatment of your problem, a little stingy, but work up, it is a clean, decisive man. And other people, how do you say that? Far water cannot save near fire. "

Bai Jinxi gave him a look.

Xiaozhuan immediately changed his words: "er It doesn't seem to be very reserved. It's not appropriate. Well It's out of reach. Yes, it's out of reach! "

Jin Xi didn't care about him, and glanced at Xu Sibai from a distance. He turned directly and left behind the door.

Looking at her back, Xiaozhuan's mood is a little indescribable.

The boss didn't know what he was going to do. He started hiding and didn't have lunch with Xu!

And a few tens of meters away from the stairs.

Xu Sibai is talking to the director. The main reason is that the director is talking. He doesn't speak much, but he listens attentively.

Then at one moment, he suddenly seemed to be aware of it, turned his head and looked in that direction.

Then I saw a shadow and disappeared at the end of the corridor.

He was stunned for a moment.

"Xiao Xu, that's it?" The director said.

Xu Sibai took back his sight, looked at the director and laughed: "good."

It's much hotter on the street than indoors.

Bai Jinxi stood at the door of a shop, one hand holding a newspaper fan cool, the other hand carrying several full plastic bags.

"Five bags of duck wings and five bags of duck neck." She said boldly.

"Good!" "The boss smiles," that sister, do you want slightly spicy, medium spicy or extra spicy? "

Bai Jinxi thought for a moment: "you wait."

She sat down at the door of the store, asked for a glass of iced mung bean paste and took out her mobile phone.

Turn to the number that has been changed to Han Shen. He has been away for four or five days, and they have not been in touch.

Word by word input: "eat spicy or not?"

I waited for two minutes and there was no reply.

It suddenly occurred to her that this guy didn't save her phone number, did she?

Very likely.

So he hit another: "I am Bai Jinxi." After thinking about it, he deliberately added: "the white Jinxi of the Guanhu police station."

-

the provincial bureau is located in the center of Lanshi, a tall white building, solemn and quiet.

At noon, Han Chen is sitting behind his desk, in front of two colleagues, asking him about a case.

Suddenly, the mobile phone on the desk was shocked.

He took a look, put it down and continued to listen to his colleagues.

Two minutes later, the mobile phone shook again.

He picked it up, looked at it again, and laughed.

Naturally, two colleagues also noticed that he was texting in succession, so they both stopped.

Han Shen typed very fast, his fingers leaped a few times, and the text message was sent out: "eat some."

Bai Jinxi replied quickly, with only one "OK" gesture.

After a while, the case was almost over, and the two colleagues began to chat.

Han Chen leaned back in the chair, picked up the mobile phone with one hand, turned two times in the palm, stopped and replied, "thank you."

She returned very quickly: "thank you, dear."

Han Shen stares at the text message and smiles slowly.

It's revenge.

He picked up her little bag last time.

Two colleagues nearby looked at his expression and thought something was wrong.

Han Shen is in the Provincial Bureau. He also has a nickname, which is widely called. However, everyone only dare to shout in private, especially the majority of female colleagues, no one dare to shout in front of their faces.

"Pretty Han Shen".

In the romance of the Sui and Tang Dynasties, Qiao Luocheng, the son of King Yan of the Tang Dynasty and a young hero, is brave and good at fighting. He kills countless people. His face is pretty but he is not smiling, which is hard to get close to.

Can they not be surprised to see "Qiao Han Shen" texting with his mobile phone and smiling?

After looking up, my colleagues are full of curiosity.

He stood up with a heavy face, put his mobile phone and cigarette case into his trouser pocket and left.

-

there are not many people in the stairwell at this time. Han Shen found a sunny corner, leaned on the railing, lit a cigarette and smoked quietly.

After a while, the mobile phone in the pocket shook again.

"Express bill No.: 8794xxx1, should arrive tomorrow."

He held a cigarette in one hand and replied, "how much is it?"

This time, the phone did not ring after a long time.

Han Chen pressed out the cigarette end and dialed it directly.

-

Bai Jinxi did not reply on purpose. Because she's standing in a delivery shop full of things, she's packing herself.I was wrapping tape around the paper box when I heard the mobile phone ring. She free a hand, also have no time to look at the number, directly with the shoulder clamp: "Hello, hello."

"It's me."

Bai Jinxi moves.

Across the phone, his voice sounds a little different from that of a real person. It seems to be lower, but it is clear and has texture.

"Oh." Bai Jinxi replied, "what's the matter?"

"How much is it?" He asked, "I'll call you."

Bai Jinxi can almost imagine in his mind that he must be standing somewhere with a cigarette in his hand and talking on the phone indifferently.

"No need." Bai Jinxi continued to pack and clattered, "if I come to Lanshi next time, you can treat me to dinner."

In the noise around him, his voice came again: "well, yes."

It's a few words that are very common. Maybe his voice is too clear and pleasant to hear, which makes her heart tremble a little.

"Good." She replied.

There was a quiet moment on the phone.

"Hang up." He said.

"Wait!" She said, "I have included you in the report on the Chen Lijiang case. I'll send you the report in the evening. You can see what needs to be changed. "

"No He replied, "I don't watch these."

Bai Jinxi gave a "Oh". Think about it. He is a senior detective. He certainly doesn't read these basic reports.

"Just don't Scribble." His voice was a little vague, as if with smoke.

Bai Jinxi laughed and said triumphantly, "that's great. I'm good at scribbling. Try to make this report your black history. "

-

after the express delivery, it is less than two o'clock. Bai Jinxi walked home slowly.

If you think about Zhou Xiaozhuan's words today, far water can't save near fire. It's really nonsense.

He did not understand, what is the friendship between friends, light as water.

Fast downstairs, a look up, but see a familiar white Chevy.

Xu Sibai leaned against the door and looked at her from a distance.

Jin Xi put his hands in his trouser pockets, laughed and walked towards him.

"Why did you come?" She asked.

Xu Sibai smile: "someone said, the case is solved, want to invite me to have a big meal."

Bai Jinxi was in a daze. She said this and said it with sincerity.

But

Her face turned a little red: "that Xu You see, today is the 28th, the end of the month... "

This month, she left several hundred yuan, all bought things for Han Chen.

Xu Sibai chuckled abruptly. It was a kind of gentle smile. His eyes were full of shallow luster.

"Get in the car." He opened the door for her. "I can borrow you first, pay me back."

Bai Jinxi: Is that ok? " Sit in.

He put his hand on the car door and looked down at her: "if you say so, it's OK."
