never forget [criminal investigation]

There were a few people scattered in the hall outside the auditorium, two of them were on the phone, and the rest were smoking.

Through the thick door, only fragments of the speeches of the leaders in the auditorium can be barely revealed.

Xing Yue stood quietly in a corner of the hall, smoking a cigarette, staring at the two exits of the auditorium.

When one cigarette was exhausted, he lit a second one.At this time, the exit door was pushed open, and Jiang Yuan came out.

Xing Yue didn't go over to stop him, but just followed him all the way.Soon, it was noticed.

"What a coincidence." Jiang Yuan stopped, hesitated, and walked towards Xing Yue.

"It's not a coincidence, I've been waiting for you for a long time." Xing Yue threw away the cigarette in his hand and went to meet him.

"What's the matter?" The two met in the middle.Jiang Yuan first looked up at him, then glanced around again.

"Something happened." Xing Yue also glanced at the people in the hall, then turned his head towards the gate, "If Team Jiang doesn't mind, why don't we go out and have a chat?"

Without another word, Jiang Yuan turned around and left.Xing Yue followed him and left the City Bureau Auditorium.

When the two came to the parking lot, Jiang Yuan opened the door of a car and got in. Xing Yue didn't hesitate and got into the co-pilot directly.

"Let's talk." After closing the car door, Jiang Yuan leaned slightly and looked directly at Xing Yue.

Xing Yue didn't play around, "Team Jiang, I want to ask, what are you going to ask Xiang Hai to do?"

"Us?" Jiang Yuan looked calm, took out the cigarette case from his pocket unhurriedly, took out a cigarette and lit it, "Who are we, and who are you?"

Xing Yue was not in the mood to play word games with him.Jiang Yuan must have understood what he meant, so he directly pointed it out, "Are you planning to make him an undercover agent?"

Jiang Yuan exhaled a thick puff of smoke, his eyes were still sharp in the vain mist, "In what capacity are you telling me these words?"

Xing Yue was also immersed in this fog, "As a policeman who assists you in handling the case, but is unwilling to watch another brother be compensated because of your failure, is it okay?"

When the smoke cleared, Jiang Yuan's face was covered with frost, and the veins on his forehead were protruding, and the words were almost squeezed out from between his teeth, "Try to say another damn thing?"

He was poked hard.Before the bloody wound healed, it was opened again.He wished he could kill Xing Yue.

Xing Yue understood his feelings, and also knew that his words were cruel.But it's about Xiang Hai, he can't be calm.

He also admitted his own selfishness, and even admitted that it was unprofessional to do so.If it were a stranger, he wouldn't be so tit for tat.

No way, people are always selfish.

If this kind of thing happened to him, he would never say another word.

But Xianghai is different.

If he was allowed to watch Xiang Hai walk into the abyss in such a daze, it would be better to kill him directly.

"I'm sorry, Team Jiang." Xing Yue took a deep breath.He apologized for the hurtful words he said, but he would not give up. "We are the police, we must obey orders, and we should do whatever we do. I understand all of this."

He lowered his eyes and flicked the phone in his hand.The screen was lit up, and it displayed a message from Xiang Hai a few minutes ago, "Brother Xing, where have you been? Why can't I see you?"

He buckled the phone on his lap, raised his head, and looked directly at Jiang Yuan, "But Xiang Hai is still young, and he is full of passion, and he is very twisted, knowing that it is a fire pit, he will jump into it without hesitation .especially when it comes to drugs..."

Xing Yue bit his lower lip fiercely, "You must know his background. I guess this is also the reason why he wants to be an anti-narcotics policeman."

"But, you can't take advantage of his mentality." Speaking of this, Xing Yue suddenly felt his nose sore.

He quickly took a deep breath and held back, "If you can choose, I don't think anyone is really willing to be an undercover agent. But he must be willing, I know, he will be willing."

Jiang Yuan kept staring at him like a wounded eagle with bloodshot eyes.

Xing Yue didn't avoid his gaze, "Captain Jiang, no matter what order you give, Xiang Hai will obey unconditionally. But, I, I only hope that you will be fair."

He gripped the phone tightly, just like he was holding Xiang Hai's hand when he took the photo just now, "He is also a victim of drugs, he is not guilty, and he doesn't need to make atonement for anyone. I hope, you guys, can make him understand this Let’s make a decision later.”

After finishing these words with difficulty, Xing Yue took out a cigarette and lit it, leaning back in the seat.

He was in a bad mood, and even the smoke he exhaled was heavy, and he just condensed around him quietly, lingering for a long time.

The cigarette in Jiang Yuan's hand had already been burned out.He lowered the car window, threw the cigarette butts out, put his elbows on the window, touched his chin, and looked at Xing Yue again, "You...what's the relationship with him?"

"You don't need to know about this." Xing Yue turned on his cell phone with a cigarette in his mouth, and returned a message to Xiang Hai.

- I have something to do, I'll be back later.

"Hehe, interesting." Jiang Yuan actually laughed, and looked out of the window with a few wrinkles at the corners of his eyes.

Then he unhurriedly unbuttoned his clothes, took off his police uniform, and threw it on the back seat, "I'll show you something."

As he spoke, he unbuttoned the cuff buttons of his shirt and rolled up his cuffs.

Xing Yue immediately frowned, and unconsciously dodged to the side.

Just talk, what are you doing with your clothes off?What's wrong with this man?

The cuffs were rolled up, exposing the thin wrist, where there was a scar, the thickness of the little finger, along the blood vessels at the wrist, extending all the way up.

Jiang Yuan continued to roll up his cuffs, like slowly lifting the curtain.One inch, two inches, the seemingly endless scar is more and more revealed.

Run down the entire forearm, over the elbow.Like an ugly dead branch, it was embedded in the flesh alive, and then symbiotic with the flesh and blood, constantly entangled and climbed up.

The cuffs rolled up a little above the elbows, and they couldn't move.But that scar seemed to be hiding most of his body.

Jiang Yuan gave up his cuffs, and then unbuttoned a few buttons on his chest.

He opened the shirt of the police uniform, exposing most of his chest.

There are the roots of dead branches.When it was still alive, a ferocious flower once bloomed.

Xing Yue was surprised.He looked at Jiang Yuan in disbelief, and couldn't help but imagine the tragic scene when the scar was formed.

After the show was over, Jiang Yuan buttoned up the buttons again, and put down his sleeves again, "This is what I left when I was an undercover agent, and it has faded a lot after more than ten years.

He lit another cigarette and smoked lightly, "It's a bit miserable, but at least my life is still alive."

Xing Yue withdrew his gaze and looked out the window, guessing his purpose for saying these words.

"You're right. This time it was indeed my responsibility. There was a problem with my work." He picked up a cigarette and brushed his short white hair with his fingers. "I caused my brother to die. It was so miserable."

His Adam's apple twitched a few times, he held the cigarette between his fingertips again, and narrowed his eyes, "I think back then, when I was brought back, my master said the same thing when he looked at my miserable state. That was the only time I saw My master is crying."

He said it calmly, as if he was talking about other people's stories, "But I never blamed my master, really, I only hate those bastards."

"However, I'm still alive anyway, but my brother..." He puffed out the smoke softly, "Whether he blames me or not, I don't know. I hope he hates me."

Xing Yue was listening, not knowing what to say.He was not good at comforting people in the first place, and now he has nothing to say.What's more, he felt that Jiang Yuan didn't need anyone to comfort him, and no one could comfort him.

"Whether I voluntarily went undercover at that time, to be honest, I really can't remember, maybe I was obeying orders." He flicked a piece of ash out of the car window and continued to smoke, "I just remember, I The master said to me, 'As long as the case is not solved, someone will die. It could be you, or it could be me.'”

"I'm still alive now, but my master is gone."

Xing Yue looked at this person again, and found that his lips were trembling slightly, and he was also trembling slightly with the half cigarette.

"I still remember that at that time, our bureau chief also talked to me. He said that it was the opinion of the bureau that I was sent out, and told me not to blame my master."

"He also said..." Speaking of this, Jiang Yuan suddenly stopped and turned to look at Xing Yue, "He said that as a policeman, you should obey orders, but I still have a choice."

Jiang Yuan stared straight at Xing Yue with hawk-like eyes, and spoke slowly, as if he was trying to discover something, "Undercover work is very important, but it is not the only condition for us to solve the case. No one really wants to be an undercover agent. If I choose There is no need for any psychological burden to quit. He hopes that I can understand these before making a decision."

Speaking of this, the carriage fell into silence, only the sound of Xing Yue's slightly rapid breathing remained.

"You, who are you talking about?"

Jiang Yuan ignored his question and continued to immerse himself in his own world, "I have been working in the anti-drug industry for 20 years, and there are only two people I really admire. One is my master, and the other is our director general."

"But now these two people are gone. My apprentice is gone too." He took a sharp puff, the remaining half of the cigarette turned into ashes, and the cigarette butt was thrown out of the window viciously, "Only I still alive."

"I am alive, so I have to continue to solve the case, and I have to continue to send people to work as undercover agents."

Jiang Yuan regained his composure, rubbed his face, then turned his head to look at Xing Yue, "I know what you said just now, and I will consider it. You... just forget what I said."

Just kidding, how could Xing Yue forget it.

He became more and more impatient, and continued to ask Jiang Yuan, "Do you know Xing Yiqing? Did you also know about the case he handled in the Municipal Bureau at that time? What's going on?"

At this time, Jiang Yuan had regained his indifferent leadership face, and even ignored Xing Yue's question.He tidied up his shirt and tilted his head out of the window, "Go down, I'm busy."

"Hey!" Xing Yue became angry, "You asked me to come up!"

"Now I'll let you go down." He started the car as he spoke, "Or are you going to follow me?"

"Fuck." Xing Yue cursed in a low voice, pushed the car door, jumped down, and closed the car door with a "bang" back.

Jiang Yuan's car drove away like a gust of wind, leaving Xing Yue with a puff of exhaust fumes.

"Crazy!" Xing Yue kicked a stone in the direction where Jiang Yuan was going away, stood still for a while, then took out the elderly phone from his pocket, and started calling He Xionghui.

The phone rang twice before being hung up, and calling again, still the same.After waiting for about 10 minutes, there was no news.

"Damn it!" Xing Yue cursed fiercely, and sent the last text message to He Xionghui.

- I'll be at your place in an hour, better not let me go or you're fucked!Don't challenge my patience.

Putting away the elderly phone, he took out his mobile phone and sent a message to Xiang Hai.

-Xiao Hai, I'm in the parking lot, come out.

After waiting for a few minutes, I saw Xiang Hai running out, and the bridegroom's big red flower was particularly eye-catching.

Only when he saw Xiang Hai's shadow from a distance, Xing Yue felt that he was brighter visible to the naked eye, and the boredom and irritable mood just now almost disappeared.

Alas, Xiang Hai is probably really his own good medicine.he thought so.

"Brother Xing, why don't you go in?"

Coming to Xing Yue's side, Xiang Hai saw him standing in the middle of the parking lot, and couldn't tell what he was doing.

"I have something to do, I have to leave later, you can drive back by yourself at night. Here are the car keys." Xing Yue handed the car keys to Xiang Hai.

"Oh." Xiang Hai was a little surprised, looked down at the key in his hand, but didn't dare to ask him what's the matter.

Xing Yue originally planned to leave after explaining, but looking at Xiang Hai's hair hanging on his forehead under the sun, he couldn't help but go over and give him a hand, "Go, go to the car and talk."

Xiang Hai agreed, and followed him towards the car.

When he arrived, he was about to open the co-pilot's door when he heard Xing Yue say, "Sit in the back."

Xiang Hai froze there, his hands still on the doorknob, but seeing that Xing Yue had already sat in the back row, he hesitated for a moment, opened the door and sat down.

In fact, Xing Yue didn't plan to do anything, he just wanted to sit and talk with Xiang Hai, and he didn't want to be separated by a pile of cold things.

But when he found that Xiang Hai's expression was not so natural, as if he was a little nervous, he suddenly remembered what happened when he watched the movie last time, and immediately regretted it.

"Well, I'm sorry, Xiao Hai, I, I forgot." He rubbed his hands nervously, "Actually, I, I have nothing to do. Why don't we go out."

"No, Brother Xing, I'm fine, really." Xiang Hai hurriedly grabbed his hand.

Seeing Xing Yue so nervous and cautious, he was ashamed and distressed.

So Xing Yue just sat there without moving, just lowered his head, pinched Xiang Hai's fingers lightly, but didn't know what to say.

After being so quiet for a while, Xiang Hai held Xing Yue's hand in his backhand again, and asked him, "Brother Xing, I'm making braised pork ribs tonight, are you coming back for dinner?"

Xing Yue raised his head and looked at him, "So good? I can eat whatever I want?"

"That is necessary." Xiang Hai smiled at him.

Xing Yue raised his hand and gently rubbed against his cheek, "Xiao Hai, why are you so kind to me?"

"Because you are my boyfriend."

Xing Yue shook his head, "You have been very kind to me since I wasn't your boyfriend."

"Hey, didn't I... have a crush on you at that time." Xiang Hai said, still a little embarrassed, lowered his head, and laughed.

Xing Yue embraced his shoulders, leaned on him, and kissed him lightly on the top of his head, "Xiao Hai, let me tell you, when you work in the sub-bureau from now on, you really have to learn to be smart, don't be stupid all day long You're a stickler. Even if you become a model worker, you can't do everything, understand?"

"Fuck!" Xiang Hai struggled out of his arms, angrily laughing, "Who is stupid? No, brother Xing, what kind of image do I have in your heart?"

"Stop talking nonsense, be more modest." Xing Yue also laughed.

"You still make me humble?" Xiang Hai's eyes widened, he lost his temper at all by his unreasonable brain circuit.

"Ah. Look at you, you're obviously proud of wearing the big red flower." Xing Yue smiled, and pulled him over again, stroking his hair gently with his fingers, "I'm not kidding you. The ancients have taught you to think twice before acting, you know?"

"The hole in your mind is big enough, so stop digging."

"..."

"If you encounter something you don't understand, don't rush to make a decision, come back and discuss it with me, okay?"

Xiang Hai was trapped under Xing Yue's arm, and his voice was muffled, "Brother Xing, there is something I can't figure out right now."

"What's the matter?" Xing Yue let him go.

Xiang Hai sat up straight, scratched his messy hair, "You are as smart as you, why did you find such a silly boyfriend?"

Xing Yue laughed until his chest trembled, and his eyes were bent into lines.

He raised his hand and scratched Xiang Hai's freshly tidied hair, "Well, because my boyfriend is actually a vixen, every day in the name of delicious food, he pours me ecstasy soup."

"Didn't you say that you would make ribs for me to eat at night? In fact, you just wanted to take advantage of my confusion so that you could hook me up."

"... Fuck." Xiang Hai knew he shouldn't ask nonsense.

But then he rubbed his nose again and looked at Xing Yue, "You think too much, brother Xing. Do you think you still use hooking up?"
