never forget [criminal investigation]

Right now is the hottest time of the year, and cities in the north are no exception.

Facing the hot setting sun all the way, Xing Yue drove the car under the abandoned railway bridge that He Xionghui brought him to last time.

The place is still deserted, except for a black car parked on the gravel.

Xing Yue parked the car next to the car, opened the door and walked out.

Probably because he thought the car was hot, He Xionghui had already got out of the car.Standing in the shade under a railway bridge, smoking a cigarette.

There was a cool breeze under the bridge, slowly flipping the corner of his suit jacket, and quickly blowing away the smoke he exhaled.

When Xing Yue stepped on the gravel and walked across to him, He Xionghui raised his face and looked away.

"Seeing that your father and son are about to be reunited, it's really gratifying." Xing Yue also lit a cigarette, and raised his chin towards the opposite side.

He Xionghui ignored him and continued to look into the distance.

"Hey, I'm very curious. What's wrong with your dad? How long will it take to get better? This...it won't work if it gets better too quickly, it's a bit fake."

He Xionghui finally gave him a look, but the look was very unfriendly, "If you have something to say, don't let it make me feel weird."

"Okay, let me talk about the matter." Xing Yue smiled, "Excuse me, how did your father discuss with Zhao Lang? Did you wait for him to come out before releasing him, or do both at the same time?"

He Xionghui continued to smoke with his face raised, "I don't understand what you mean."

"Then let me put it another way." Xing Yue paced back and forth, the gravel under his feet being trampled "crack".

"If I remember correctly, your father suddenly fell ill after knowing that Yuan Jie was burned to death in your warehouse. We understand that." Xing Yue sighed with emotion, "Your father is so affectionate. A righteous person, knowing that his younger brother who had been loyal to him for more than ten years, suddenly died for no reason, and died so badly, he must be angry. Once angry, he will be sick."

With a cigarette in his mouth, He Xionghui gave him an extremely bored look.

"What made him even more angry was that the person who did such an inhumane thing turned out to be Zhao Lang, that bastard." Xing Yue shook his head helplessly, "This new enmity adds to the old enmity, your father is so angry. He is old enough for his old body."

"Xing Yue, I'm warning you, don't talk nonsense here!" He Xionghui finally couldn't listen anymore, threw the cigarette on the ground viciously, took out his phone, "See, I've recorded all your nonsense words. This will be evidence in court in the future, so be careful!"

"Yo ho?" Xing Yue was really surprised. This law-blind man actually knew how to use the weapon of law to protect himself?But what the hell is the evidence in court?Watch too many TV shows.

"Okay, really filial." Xing Yue gave him a thumbs up.

No wonder He Xionghui was surprisingly restrained today, no matter how provocative he was, he didn't curse anyone.It seems that during the critical period before He Kun's release from prison, he absolutely did not want to cause trouble.

"I came to you today mainly because of the case of Zhao Wenyu's disappearance." Xing Yue returned to He Xionghui, "I hope you can provide some clues."

"Because the purpose of this kidnapping case is not for money, but for revenge. Therefore, I suspect that the suspect does not intend to keep alive. We need to find Zhao Wenyu and rescue him alive before the suspect does anything."

He Xionghui stared at him puzzled, "Why are you telling me this? I don't know that Zhao Wenyu. Whether he lives or dies is none of my business?"

"That's right," Xing Yue said with a businesslike attitude, "Just the day before the kidnapping case, someone instigated several underage students to go to your bar for consumption with cigarettes hidden in drugs. Someone found it and called the police."

"After investigation, the instigator was one of Zhao Lang's subordinates, and he also admitted that he reported to the police for the purpose of framing. Therefore, we have reason to suspect that because of this incident, you wanted to take revenge on Zhao Lang, so you kidnapped him." his son."

"Furthermore, during the investigation, quite a few people could prove that you once said something like, 'If you want that bastard Zhao Lang to look good, you have to kill him'. How do you explain this?"

"..."

He Xionghui's eyes were wide open, and he looked at him like a monster.

"Xing, Xing Yue, you are not a fucking person! You are a fucking beast!"

Xing Yue immediately warned him, "He Xionghui, watch your attitude!"

"Tell me, what is going on? Or do you want to talk to me back in the game?"

He Xionghui's face was distorted with anger, "Get out! What's wrong with J8? You fucking go back and ask the anti-drug police in your bureau, I can't tell you!"

Xing Yue frowned, "By the way, I forgot if you didn't tell me. Your bar was closed down in the morning, why did it open again at night? Who approved your business? Do you have relevant documents? And it is said that drugs were found in it that night , What's going on here? Is it still framed?"

He Xionghui was so angry that his brain was boiling, he rushed over and grabbed Xing Yue's neckline, "Try to talk nonsense, I'll kill you!"

"Hey, I'm warning you, let me go as soon as possible!" Xing Yue didn't resist, pointing at the two angry hands, "Your phone is still recording, testifying in court or something, forgot? "

Panting heavily through his nose, He Xionghui stared at Xing Yue for a long time before pushing him away violently.

Xing Yue wasn't angry either, and straightened his neckline, "Come on, tell me, what's going on?"

"I don't know!" He Xionghui didn't want to be disturbed any more, so he simply turned his back and didn't look at him.

"Okay, then I'll ask someone else." Xing Yue skipped over this question graciously, and walked this way slowly.

"What is Yuan Guoping's background? How did you get in touch with him?"

"I don't know. I don't know."

He Xionghui also woke up now, and realized that he almost broke his defense just now, and was tricked by that bastard Xing Yue.Simply ask a question and don't know, and deal with it.At worst, wait for his father to come out safely, and then settle the score with Xing Yue.

"I don't know? You can't." Xing Yue stood behind him and fanned the flames, "He is the warden of the No. [-] Prison, and also your old father's benefactor. If there is no note approved by him, can your father come out?"

"I don't know." He Xionghui insisted on this principle and would not relax.

"Otherwise... it has something to do with Zhao Lang, and Zhao Wenyu's life is exchanged for this matter?"

"do not know."

Xing Yue snorted softly, and was about to continue beating him.Suddenly, his eyes were attracted by something on his back.

At first, He Xionghui had been standing in the shade, avoiding the sun.Just now Xing Yue was so angry that he wanted to beat someone up, so he jumped out, his shadow stretched long behind him.

At this moment, the setting sun was slanting more and more to the west, but it was still dazzling, and the yellow-orange-orange sun just splashed down in large swaths.

Under the sun, the dust stirred up by the two danced wildly, and fell silently on He Xionghui's dark suit jacket.At the same time, there were two white hairs stuck to it.

That's not human hair, it's definitely animal hair, sticking firmly to He Xionghui's back.

Xing Yue took out another cigarette and lit it, smoking slowly while observing carefully.

Not only those two, but also on the sleeves and calves.

"Are you still busy? I can go now." At this moment, He Xionghui turned his head and squinted at him from the corner of his eyes.

"Where are you going?" Xing Yue asked suddenly.

"...Can I manage you?"

"Okay, let's do it for today. You can think about those questions just now, and I will come to you next time." Xing Yue blew smoke rings leisurely, narrowing his eyes and looking at him.

"It's okay, don't fucking harass me all the time." He Xionghui said impatiently, and walked towards his car.

Xing Yue stood there with a cigarette in his mouth, watching him get into the car, but he was not in a hurry to leave.

Xing Yue smiled, tilted his head, blew half a cigarette far away, waved his hand towards the black car, and got into his own car.

Two cars rolled over the gravel path in turn, raising a cloud of smoke and dust.

Xing Yue glanced at the rearview mirror and saw that He Xionghui's car was following him, keeping a distance of more than ten meters.

Turning off the small road leading to the railway bridge, it is a main east-west road.To the east is to return to the city center, and to the west it is getting closer and closer to the suburbs.

Xing Yue turned the steering wheel to the right, and the car got on the main road, heading east.

His speed is not too fast, as can be seen from the rearview mirror, He Xionghui's car also turned up, still following behind.

After running back and forth for less than three kilometers, He Xionghui's car started to accelerate, quickly disappeared from the rearview mirror, and passed in front of his car with a "swish".

The two cars exchanged positions, still one behind the other.It's just that He Xionghui's car ran faster and faster. Xing Yue followed for about five kilometers, and saw that the car in front didn't turn on the turn signal, and turned right directly into a fork in the road.

Xing Yue didn't follow and continued to go straight.

After walking for a while, he pulled over and parked under the shade of a tree, staring quietly in the rearview mirror.

In less than 2 minutes, a black car turned out of the fork in the road just now and re-entered his sight.

The distance is a bit far, and the license plate cannot be seen clearly.But Xing Yue can be sure that it is He Xionghui's car.

The car came out of the fork in the road, turned sharply to the left, and quickly disappeared from the end of sight.

Xing Yue immediately called Qin Peng, "Old Qin, please contact the Traffic Management Bureau immediately and ask them to help me find a black Mercedes with the plate number 'Jiang A81888'."

"It is driving from east to west on Min'an Road, and it is about 3 kilometers west of the intersection of Min'an Road and Jianshe Road."

"Track its trajectory after finding it, and report to me immediately. Be quick!"

Qin Peng on the other end of the phone hung up after agreeing.

Xing Yue restarted the car, turned around, controlled the speed of the car, and followed from a distance.

Ever since he came back from the Municipal Bureau, Xiang Hai has been thinking about Jiang Yuan's words all day.I feel that sometimes I understand, sometimes I am confused, and my mood becomes inexplicable.

At noon, he wanted to go to the cafeteria to eat with Xing Yue. He went downstairs to take a look and found that he was not in the office.

When he was about to get off work in the afternoon, he sent a message to Xing Yue.

-Brother Xing, are you working overtime today?

-Let's go to the hospital later, I think your mother is quite lonely by herself, and she will have surgery tomorrow.

But after waiting for a long time, he didn't come back.

Xiang Hai pretended to have something to do with him, and went downstairs to the criminal investigation office.

As a result, no one was there at all.Qin Peng told him that Xing Yue had gone out on business and had been away for a while, and he would definitely not come back before get off work.

So Xiang Hai got off the hug alone.When I went to the courtyard to see, sure enough, Xing Yue's car was gone.

He sighed and thought as he walked, "Should I go to the hospital?"

Although Xing Yue always said that Luo Meihua likes to be alone, after contacting her twice, Xiang Hai could still feel that she was quite lonely.At least in the hospital.

I have surgery tomorrow, so I must be very nervous right now.It would be good to have someone to chat with, to distract and pass the time.

It's just that there's no time to prepare anything right now, Luo Meihua must have had dinner, so he simply went to the hospital empty-handed.

Coming to the door of the ward, Xiang Hai knocked on the door.

"Please come in." Luo Meihua's voice came from inside.

Xiang Hai gently opened the door and walked in, "Auntie, hello, it's me."

Luo Meihua was leaning on the bed and reading a book, and was surprised to find that it was Xiang Hai.He looked behind him again, "It's Xiang Hai. Why are you alone? Where's Xing Yue?"

"Brother Xing works overtime today, he is very worried about you, so let me take a look."

Luo Meihua smiled and greeted him, "Come and sit."

She was laughing at Xiang Hai's little thoughts.It is absolutely impossible for Xing Yue to say these words.

Although it is not her own, she still thinks she understands Xing Yue's temper.

Xiang Hai went to sit on the chair, "Auntie, how are you feeling today? Have you had dinner yet?"

"I've eaten it, and it's okay."

She looked at Xiang Hai with a faint smile on her face.She couldn't tell what was going on, but she had a good impression of Xing Yue's little boyfriend.Maybe not just because of the hearty breakfast this morning.

Xing Yue's personality is warm, like fire.Although it was always suppressed in this family, she could still feel it.This point probably came from Xing Yiqing's inheritance.

But Xiang Hai gave her the feeling that it was clear and calm, like water.It seemed more to her temper.

Therefore, she was also a little curious, how did such two people attract each other and come together?

"Auntie, let me peel an apple for you to eat." Xiang Hai saw a lot of fruit and a fruit knife on the small table beside the bed.

"I don't want to eat it. You can eat it." Luo Meihua said and handed an apple to Xiang Hai.

Xiang Hai just held it with his hands, but didn't bite.

"I heard Xing Yue call you, Xiao Hai?"

"Yes." Xiang Hai nodded, "Auntie, you can call me Xiaohai as well."

Luo Meihua didn't make a sound.She was quite willing to call it that way, but she couldn't say it, especially in front of Xing Yue.

I still remember that when Xing Yue was young, he pestered her for a while, asking her why other children had nicknames, but he didn't.

She changed the topic, "Xing Yue is very busy at work, do you often work overtime? How about you, don't you need it?"

"I do it occasionally, but Brother Xing is much busier than me." Xiang Hai said and put the apple back on the table.

"Then what do you usually do after work?"

Xiang Hai scratched his head, "If you don't work overtime, I'll just read after dinner after work, and Brother Xing usually plays games or something."

"Are you already living together?" Luo Meihua seemed to have discovered the point.

"No, no, no!" Xiang Hai quickly waved his hands, "We live in the same community, quite close, but we definitely don't live together!"

Luo Meihua comforted him with a smile, "Don't be nervous, it's okay to live together. Just pay attention to safety."

"..."

Xiang Hai tried his best to taste the taste of these words.

This is the second time Xing Yue's mother mentioned the word "safety".In connection with the current context, did I misunderstand yesterday?

Thinking of this, his face turned red all of a sudden.

No, are the elders so open now?

Hearing that Xiang Hai said that he likes to read, Luo Meihua became interested and asked him, "What book are you reading now?"

"I'm reading "Criminology Textbook", Xiang Hai rubbed his face and replied.

"...Oh." Luo Meihua leaned back to the head of the bed again.

"Brother Xing recommended it to me, and there are a few books that he has read before." Speaking of this, Xiang Hai was a little proud, "Brother Xing is a top student, but he won't allow me to tell."

Seeing the smile on his face, Luo Meihua also raised the corners of her lips, "Well, when Xing Yue was in school, his grades were indeed very good all the time."

She looked blankly at the white wall of the ward, and recalled, "From elementary school to high school, I remember that he was called a parent only once."

Xiang Hai's eyes lit up.He is very interested in Xing Yue's black history.

"I remember it was when he was just in junior high school. I was called to school by the teacher because he made two girls in the class cry." Luo Meihua pressed her forehead lightly, "At first I thought it was Xing Yue He bullied his female classmates, only to find out at school that the two girls both liked him, and they quarreled over who was his girlfriend."

Um?There is such a thing? ?Xiang Hai wrote it down silently.

"It was Xing Yue's birthday that day, so they took gifts for Xing Yue to choose, and said whoever they chose would be his real girlfriend." Luo Meihua said, rubbing her temples non-stop.

"Then what happened next?" Xiang Hai was anxious to hear the result.

"Later, Xing Yue looked at them and said, 'I'm not interested in having a girlfriend, so just treat me as if I don't exist. Besides, your grades are so poor, how do you still have the time to think about these useless things? If I were you, They're all on fire."

"..."

Xiang Hai's face was covered with black lines.That's right, this tone is too Xingyue.

Luo Meihua shook her head, "Then the two girls cried, and then the teacher was alarmed, and the parents of the three children were called to the school."

"You can't blame Brother Xing for this." Xiang Hai frowned, "I think what he said is quite reasonable."

"I don't blame him, and I didn't say anything about him afterwards." Luo Meihua smiled and looked at Xiang Hai, "But now that I think about it, I understand why he didn't have a girlfriend until he graduated from college."

"Oh. Hehe..." Xiang Hai laughed awkwardly.

"What about you?" Luo Meihua suddenly wanted to tease him, "Should there have been such misunderstandings?"

She thinks Xiang Hai is so handsome, when he was ignorant, there must have been girls who liked him.It's just that he shouldn't refuse as straightforwardly as Xing Yue.

"Me?" This stopped Xiang Hai from asking.

He began to reminisce about his teenage years.But after thinking about it for a long time, my mind was like a cloud of fog, a vast expanse of whiteness, without a single image.

So he shook his head, "I don't seem to have experienced such a situation."

Xing Yue is his first love, he can be 100% sure of this.Before that, he had never liked anyone, male or female.No one has ever expressed love for him.

But what made him feel at a loss was that Xing Yue knew clearly that he didn't like girls when he was just in junior high school, until now.

What about yourself?When did you start to realize this?

He has no memory of it at all.

Couldn't it be after meeting Xing Yue that he realized this?

It is absolutely impossible.

Seeing that he seemed to be still struggling with the problem just now, Luo Meihua leaned forward and patted his arm lightly, "It's normal if you don't have one. Everyone's situation is different, and the environment in which they grew up is different. Don't worry too much about it. Just Now you can be happy."

Xiang Hai looked at her and nodded dully.

"It's getting late. After a busy day, you should go back and rest early."

"Yeah." Xiang Hai stood up, "Auntie, you should also take a good rest."

"Tomorrow, I asked for leave and came here with Brother Xing." He rubbed his hands, "Don't be too nervous, have confidence, everything will be fine."

"Okay." Luo Meihua smiled lightly and nodded.

Before leaving, Xiang Haiyou poured her a glass of warm water and put it on the bedside before leaving the ward.

After leaving the gate of the hospital, Xiang Hai took a deep breath and raised his head.

The night sky was clear and full of stars.

He glanced at his phone again, and there was still no news from Xing Yue.
