Early the next morning.

The two of them had just opened the door and stepped into the gate of the criminal investigation office. Seeing Wen Lianyi moving to Jianghuai's desk in small steps, saying something mysteriously, Yan Cun asked casually, "What are you whispering?"

He raised his hand and tugged at the protruding cuff of the police uniform, and folded it in threes and twos to stick it above the wrist. This year, the summer temperature in Qinjiang is not quite right. The average temperature in the morning is below 23 degrees. I borrowed a long-sleeved top from Ji Liao.

Although the two of them are similar in figure and outline, they are 10 cm taller than him after all, so he also wears Ji Liao's clothes in an oversize style.

Wen Lianyi greeted them both, and said, "Captain Yan, I was about to talk! I made a big discovery!"

"...Well, you say."

She immediately unlocked the phone screen, opened the electronic file, and said excitedly: "I found... that Yu Yue! He and Lu Xiaorui have the same birthday! And it's the same month and day in the same year!"

"???" Yan Cun was taken aback, "Huh?"

He couldn't control his mind and thought of something bloody.

At the next table, Jiang Huai looked like an old man on the subway looking at his mobile phone, hesitated for a while, and asked, "This...so, why?"

"Hmm..." Wen Lianyi replied in a serious manner, "I think! This! It's very likely to be the motive for committing the crime!"

"What...could this be a motive??" Jiang Huai opened his mouth, "Because he shares his birthday with him, making him feel that he is not the only little prince in the world?? A bit outrageous?"

"No!" Wen Lianyi dissatisfied and increased her volume, "Don't you think... this is a coincidence!"

"It's a coincidence," Jiang Huai nodded, "I guess Yu Yue himself didn't know about it..."

"...Stop!" Seeing that Wen Lianyi slapped the table and stood up, the two of them were about to quarrel, Yan Cun hurriedly made a 'pause' gesture and said, "Then write it down first, oh, I can write down one more No trouble... Lian Yi."

Wen Lianyi pursed her lips when she heard the words, and it took a long time to say "yes", and returned to her desk in two steps, and entered her big discovery into the electronic file.

"Oh, that's right!" She shouted again, "Captain Yan, I forgot to tell you! Shen Lin had a fever this morning, and no one answered your phone calls. Let me ask for leave for him!"

Yan Cun let out an "ah", and fumbled to take out his mobile phone from the pocket of the police uniform. There were indeed three missed calls on it, so he nodded with an "oh".

He remembered what happened last night, took the key out of his pocket, opened the desk drawer, and flipped through it a little bit—the spare key was still clamped on the last page of the notebook, and the slender pencil lead that was stuck in the gap in the book Also stay there intact.

Although it is true that there are only these two keys for the gate, but Fang Yushan and I completed the renovation of the house at the beginning, and it must have been carefully prepared at that time.

He was slightly relieved.

A few minutes later, Zhang Jingze raised his hand and gently pushed the door of the criminal investigation office, looked around for a while, and quickly sat down beside him: "Captain Yan, I just went to the anti-drug detachment next door to inquire about the case, and I made a big discovery."

He pushed the drawer back: "Say."

"You absolutely..." Zhang Jingze said mysteriously, "You will never guess what will be found in the interrogation!"

"?" Yan Cun frowned, "I can guess why you need me!? Who did you learn from! Don't be fooled! Tell me!"

"Oh... Let me tell you! When Captain He said that he found that person, my jaw dropped in shock! You will never guess..." Zhang Jingze said loudly after being scratched by Captain Yan. "It's Gao Kuiliang!!"

"..." Yan Cun said "Oh" expressionlessly, "I guessed it."

When she visited Gao Yaya's home with Zhang Jingze, she once mentioned that "father is very opposed to Wang Yuan being with her".

Previously in the 721 case, it was known that Luo Qingsen and Gao Kuiliang had business cooperation. It happened that the same blue and white porcelain USB flash drive was found on Liang Zhong this time. Gao Yaya got along with Wang Yuan, mostly because he knew in advance that he had violent tendencies and bad habits, and was also contaminated with drugs.

"So what did you find out about him?" Yan Cun continued to ask.

"Well...it's nothing, it's just that he was found to be in contact with Liang Zhong, but not close," Zhang Jingze paused, "He team said that they had found out about Gao Kuiliang before, but they were only closely related to drug addicts. There is no direct evidence to prove that he is related to drug gangs... This time, with Liang Zhong added, we really have to investigate thoroughly."

Yan Cun nodded: "Yes."

Now Liang Zhong and Gao Kuiliang are thoroughly investigated by the anti-narcotics detachment, but the criminal investigation detachment's 'attempted murder' case has not made any progress.

After letting policeman Xiao Liu go to the hospital to check on Lu Xiaorui's situation, everyone went back to their desks to sort out the materials.

After reading the case information for a while, the clock on the wall rang a 'ding', and the hour hand slowly pointed to the number '12'.

There is a full two-hour lunch break. Those who live in urban areas generally choose to go home, and those who prefer to go directly to the cafeteria of the police station for lunch.In the past, Captain Yan usually chose to go home when he was not busy, but now that he is living under the fence, he is not ashamed to mention the lunch break to Ji Liao.

However, just as he was about to pull out his phone to order a takeaway, a bony hand stretched out from the desk next door and blocked his screen arbitrarily.

"It's not good to eat takeaway all the time," the man said.

Yan Cun took a breath, fixed his eyes on the clean, white and slender hand, and said perfunctorily for a long time: "Indeed."

Without lifting his head, he moved the phone to the side - he moved to the left, and the hand followed him to the left, and when he moved to the right, the man's knuckles moved and directly grasped the screen firmly.

"..."

He quickly pulled out his other hand and rubbed it heavily. The man trembled, and immediately retracted his hand as if he was electrocuted.

Only then did Yan Cun bend the corners of his eyes to meet Ji Liao's gaze, couldn't help but smiled for a while, and hinted, "Well, I'm getting tired of takeaways around here."

"..." Ji Liao pursed his lips in displeasure, and remained silent for a while, lowering his voice as if afraid of being heard, "Go home, I'll make it for you."

Yan Cun was taken aback for a moment, and said deliberately: "Ah? You can cook?"

"Eat it," Ji Liao frowned upon seeing the questioning look in the other party's eyes, and asked again with a louder voice, "Do you want to eat it or not?"

"Well... let's eat," Yan Cun stretched slowly, folded his cuffs up again, followed him to the parking lot, and said, "By the way, go back to my house to pack something... your clothes are a bit dirty Long, those who don’t know think that some child is stealing the clothes of parents.”

"..." Ji Liao pretended to be cold and said "oh".

After parking the car at the corner of the street, he walked to the meat and vegetable market 300 meters away to buy some fresh vegetables and raw meat. After Yan Cun packed his things and went downstairs, he drove Yan Cun back to his home.

Neither of them had the habit of taking a nap, and it was still early, so Yan Cun suggested to help.

After seeing Ji Liao take out several huge fish of different types from the packaging bag as if by magic, Yan Cun was dumbfounded and said, "This... so many fish? What are you going to do?"

Ji Liao skillfully started to handle the ingredients and said, "Don't you like fish?"

He recalled that when everyone ordered takeaway together a few days ago, Captain Yan chose steamed fish and sweet and sour fish most frequently. When the bowl of winter melon and crucian carp soup was thrown to the ground by the takeaway boy, his expression was distressed—so he Conclusion: love to eat fish.

Thinking about it carefully, he suddenly felt that Yan Cun was a bit like Ying Duan - he looked like a docile relative, with a friendly personality and good temper, but actually he was a bit cold and aloof on the inside, and once he got angry, he would stretch out his claws to scratch you, scratching you even more can be ruthless.

"..." Captain Yan, who was labeled cold and aloof, opened his mouth and said helplessly, "I do like fish, but I don't just eat fish for three meals a day..."

Speaking of this, he lowered his voice again: "No, I can't, I can't be picky! It's ok...the person who cooks has the final say."

Ji Liao was taken aback for a moment, and couldn't help but burst out laughing in a 'puchi'.

Yan Cun ignored him, raised his eyes to look around for a while, caught a glimpse of the garlic in the basket on the side of the chopping board, stepped forward and began to peel it, and asked casually, "Is there anything you don't want to eat?"

Ji Liao thought for a while and said, "Don't eat onions, ginger, and garlic."

Yan Cun's hand that peeled the garlic stopped instantly, and said "ah", "Then what am I doing?"

"Hmm..." Ji Liao thought for a while, "Shall we go play?"

After he finished speaking, he seemed to be thinking of something, and he smiled and said, "Go, go play with fish."

He noticed that last night and this morning, when the two of them went up and down the stairs and passed the ornamental glass fish tank, the little blue guppies inside seemed to be possessed by a demon, wagging their tails and insisting on following Yan Cun wherever they went , I have never experienced such a thing.

He found that Yan Cun in his mind was already an image of a kitten with fried fur.

"No, let me do something." Yan Cun's small plan was very loud, "If I don't help you, I will have to do the dishes by myself in a while. Among all the housework, I hate washing the dishes the most. , and the least good at it, at least two hours of washing..."

"Don't worry, there's a dishwasher," Ji Liao laughed and sent him off, "Go, go play, feed the fish for me for a while, I forgot to feed them this morning."

Yan Cun hesitated for a while, and finally nodded his head "Oh".

In fact, he really didn't want to play with fish at first. Since the temperature in Qinjiang was a little higher at noon, he went back to his room and changed into a short-sleeved uniform. Attracted attention - so he actually went to play with fish for a while.

He found the remote control of 'feeding fish food', asked Ji Liao how much to feed the fish, and then went back to the glass fish tank to fiddle with it.

He turned on the phone camera to take a bunch of photos, happily watched the fish for a while, until Ji Liao called him to eat, and then he moved back to the dining table in small steps.

Seeing that there was a table of fish dishes of various flavors, Yan Cun was dumbfounded and remained silent for a long time.

"You... are a bit too much!... Are you raising me like a pig!?"
